And let's have less of those anachronistic chicken breeds in the farm yards while we're at it.
I just discovered foodtimeline.org, which is exactly what it sounds like: centuries worth of information about FOOD. If you are writing something historical and you want a starting point for figuring out what people should be eating, this might be a good place?
I have no idea who floated the 25-30% idea, I hear it from social work folk, from accountants, from bankers, but I've got decades of experience where my rent has never been less than 50%. It is currently 66%, and this place is an incredible deal, partnering with two of my kids.
So the crossed out part is the correct answer, but it is a new answer — when my ancestors got here, they came FROM that same situation, but landed in a New World far from kings and banks and landlords, they did the most blasphemous thing, they HELPED each other, there was a joy in building a NEW world, every young couple got a house and a barn (think what that meant on a treeless Prairie!) there were no absentee grafters. At least for a while. Not long, as it turned out.
Then came the railroad. In our case the first trainload was full of soldiers bent on protecting bank profits…
The spread of radioactive isotopes from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Japan in 2011 and the ongoing threat of a possible release of radiation from the Zaporizhzhia nuclear complex in the Ukrainian war zone have underscored the need for effective and reliable ways of detecting and monitoring radioactive isotopes. Less dramatically, everyday operations of nuclear reactors, mining and processing of uranium into fuel rods, and the disposal of spent nuclear fuel also require monitoring of radioisotope release.
Now, researchers at MIT and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) have come up with a computational basis for designing very simple, streamlined versions of sensor setups that can pinpoint the direction of a distributed source of radiation. They also demonstrated that by moving that sensor around to get multiple readings, they can pinpoint the physical location of the source. The inspiration for their clever innovation came from a surprising source: the popular computer game "Tetris."
