San Quentin State Prison (SQ) is a California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation state prison for men, located north of San Francisco in the unincorporated town of San Quentin in Marin County.
Opened in July 1852, it is the oldest prison in California. The state's only death row for male inmates, the largest in the United States, is located at the prison. It has a gas chamber, but since 1996 executions at the prison have been carried out by lethal injection. The prison has been featured on film, video, and television; is the subject of many books; has hosted concerts; and has housed many notorious inmates.
The correctional complex sits on Point San Quentin, which comprises 432 acres (1.75 km2) on the north side of San Francisco Bay. The prison complex itself occupies 275 acres (1.11 km2), valued in a 2001 study at between $129 million and $664 million.
The prison complex has its own ZIP code for mail sent to inmates, 94974; the ZIP code of the adjacent community of Point San Quentin Village is 94964. It is bordered by San Francisco Bay to the south and west and by Interstate 580 to the north and east, near the northern terminus of the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge.
In France, the Chemin des Dames (literally, the "ladies' path") is part of the D18 and runs east and west in the département of Aisne, between in the west, the Route Nationale 2, (Laon to Soissons) and in the east, the D1044 at Corbeny. It is some thirty kilometres long and runs along a ridge between the valleys of the rivers Aisne and Ailette. It acquired the name in the 18th century, as it was the route taken by the two daughters of Louis XV, Adélaïde and Victoire, who were known as Ladies of France. At the time, it was scarcely a carriage road, but it was the most direct route between Paris and the Château de Boves, near Vauclair, on the far side of the Ailette. The château belonged to Françoise de Châlus, former mistress of Louis XV, Countess of Narbonne-Lara and former lady of honour to Adélaïde, whom the two ladies visited frequently. To make the way easier, the count had the road surfaced, and it gained its new name. The ridge's strategic importance first became evident in 1814 when Napoleon's young recruits beat an army of Prussians and Russians at the Battle of Craonne.
Louis Sebastian Theroux (/θəˈruː/ LOO-ee thə-ROO; born 20 May 1970) is an English documentary filmmaker and broadcaster. He is best known for his documentary series, including Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends, When Louis Met..., and his BBC Two specials. His career started in journalism and bears influences of notable writers in his family, such as his father Paul Theroux and brother Marcel. He works with the BBC producing his documentaries and television series.
Theroux is the son of the American travel writer and novelist Paul Theroux, who is of French and Italian descent, and his then-wife Anne Castle. His older brother, Marcel, is a writer and television presenter, while his cousin, Justin, is an actor and screenwriter. Born in Singapore, Theroux moved with his family to England at the age of one year, and was brought up in London thereafter.
Theroux was educated for a couple of years at Allfarthing Primary School before moving on to Westminster School. While there he became friends with comedians Adam Buxton and Joe Cornish, and the Liberal Democrat politician Nick Clegg (with whom he travelled to America).
Quentin is a French male given name from the Latin first name Quintinus, diminutive form of Quintus, that means "the fifth".
St. Anger is the eighth studio album by American heavy metal band Metallica, released on June 5, 2003 by Elektra Records. It was the band's last album released through Elektra, thus marking the end of the second-longest timespan between studio albums from Metallica, with nearly six years between the release of Reload and this album. It is also the final collaboration between Metallica and producer Bob Rock, whose relationship began with the band's fifth studio album, 1991's Metallica. St. Anger was originally intended for release on June 10, 2003, but was released five days earlier due to concerns over unlicensed distribution through peer-to-peer file sharing networks. The St. Anger sessions also mark the only time Rock actually played when the music was being recorded, filling in for the departed bassist Jason Newsted.
Newsted left the band prior to the initial sessions for the album, leaving Rock to temporarily take his place until a permanent replacement could be found. Recording of the album initially started on April 23, 2001, but was postponed indefinitely when rhythm guitarist and singer James Hetfield entered rehab for "alcoholism and other addictions". St. Anger is often recognized for being a radical musical departure from Metallica's earlier work; it features a modern heavy metal style, raw production, and no guitar solos. The artwork was created by Pushead, who had previously collaborated with the band.

Cinematics and gameplay action from The St. Quentin Scar multiplayer map. Recorded using the Battlefield 1 spectator mode. This video is sponsored by EA. They paid for my flights and hotel for EA Play at Los Angeles where the capture event was held. Video was captured using ultra settings, at 1440p. All video and audio in-game. On the 11th of June I went to In-N-Out Burger and had a lovely cheeseburger. EA did not pay for that burger, and I am not sponsored by In-N-Out Burger. I do however believe that the products served at In-N-Out Burger are superior when compared to other hamburger places I have visited during the years. There is one exception though, Fergburger in Queenstown, NZ, which has arguably the most delicious burgers in the world. I have heard good things about the Hawaiian-...
Le 21 août 1914, les allemands envahissent la ville de Dinant, non loin de la frontière française. Ils massacrent les civils, tirent par les fenêtres, mettent le feu aux maisons. Les villageois fuient pour sauver leur vie, notamment en direction de Saint-Quentin. C'est le prémisse d'une occupation du territoire français, en particulier le nord-est du pays, sans aucune mesure avec celle de la seconde guerre mondiale...

We had a great day visiting Daly City and San Francisco for the day. Having dinner before we came home making sure there was no leaven and unclean products in the food was really not that hard to do because all we had to do was ask.
