They used 8 for a number of reasons. The biggest was because they didn't want to spend money on a reactor that was so big it could only be used on a carrier.
Sad little person. Spysats and spy aircraft save lives. The have prevented more wars than you can count. Sorry that that world is not all fairy farts and unicorn poop but the reality is that Lockheed's spy planes and spysats are what allowed the first arm limitation treaties and later arms reduction treaties. Lockheed's greatest planes the U-2 and SR-71 never fired a single shot in anger.
But the flip side is a spouse can prevent other family members from seeing you. So a spouse that does not like your parents can block them out of spite.
This could all be solved by just simple good manners and kindness but those are in short supply.
Except this is from Lockheed. While I would not stop all other research Lockheed has a history of making things that most people think is impossible possible. First production US jet fighter. First aircraft to fly over 70,000ft "level flight". First US mach 2 fighter. First Spysat. First Mach 3 aircraft. First stealth aircraft. I really would not dismiss this one. It is as least very interesting.
Peak usage in summer is around 4PM to 8PM peak solar generation is centered on solar noon and has a span of about 5 hours. So take 1PM for daylight savings time and take it out 3 hours and you have the end of peak production at the start of peak usage. That is a bit optimistic since I am extending peak generation time by an hour since it is summer. In winter it is far worse. peak starts at 6am and runs to 10am and then you have a peak at 5PM to 8PM. Peaks will very a bit by location but peak time is always evening and often early morning. It will become an issue if solar ever gets to be around 30% of total power since it will demand even more peaking plants.
The rate of women joining the workforce has been more or less constant since 1948. The increase in the divorce rate, the pushing of women to have a career instead of staying home, the reduction of well paying manufacturing jobs, and many other issues has caused this.
I know of a couple where the mother has the higher potential to earn and the father stays at home which is fine. The key is not that women must stay home but at least one parent should stay home during the early years of the childrens life.
Not nations that is for sure. The US got some bases but except for the one in Bermuda, the Bahamas, and some in Canada the US returned them all in 1949. The problem is that you do not seem to know what the words confiscated means since the UK leased the US those bases, or large since the those bases where in no way a large part of the British Empire, and you really don't seem to have much of an knowledge of history. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D... Yep that statement was just dumb since no part of the British Empire became part of the US.
" or even allowing certain people to visit you in the hospital" Not exactly. I have never seen a hospital with a family only rule. Only if you are incapacitated can your family decide to ask the hospital to make it family only or to exclude someone. If you are married you spouse is your "closest" family member and can actually exclude other family members.
The Ford class is going for one refueling as are the later Nimitz. Earlier nuclear powered ships had a much shorter core life. Even the Enterprise ended up with a 10 year core life.
" Carriers typically have one reactor replacement, combined with a several year refit and overhaul, halfway through their life." No it is a refueling not a reactor replacement.
It is amazing that reporters seem to lack even an 8th grade level of science education. They did change the fusion reactor to fission but. It now reads "U.S. submarines and aircraft carriers run on nuclear power, but they have large fission reactors on board that have to be replaced on a regular cycle." The reactors last the life of the ship. It is only the fuel that gets changed they they are aiming for that to be the life of the ship as well. It is at least 20 years today. And this part. "Ultra-dense deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen, is found in the earth's oceans, and tritium is made from natural lithium deposits." Wow.... ultra-dense...... Good grief. Well the reporting is crap but lets hope Lockheed really has what it says it has.
Take a deep breath.... First of all the health care workers involved were monitoring their temperatures so the got isolated quickly and before they where highly contagious. Sending the patients to facilities trained for this is probably a good idea but then you still have the risks involved in transport. Finally I have to admit that I fear this a case where the CDC did send the right instructions but they failed in not knowing what what the Hospital did not know. They might have sent instructions to use full protective gear including eye protection, gloves, and foot coverings. To the CDC that means tapeing the gloves and booties and face shields and respirators. To a metro hospital it may have just meant gowns, booties, gloves, and goggles. The CDC can only do what the government can let it do. The current administration did not start preparing soon enough IMHO. The current administration also has not seemed to have involved USAMRIID yet and of course the current administration disbanded the Aeromedical Isolation Team in 2010... Not the best move. Really do not panic people it is not anywhere an ignition point yet. This is not the end of the world.
Actually that is the reason that so many data centers are being built in Oregon and Washington. Lots of cheap hydro and not far from the West coast tech companies.
"This is actually a silly concern. Electricity demand is highest in the middle of the day when the sun is shining. That is also when the spot price for power is highest. It makes no sense at all to store that power to sell it in the middle of the night, when prices are far lower."
No you are wrong. https://www.pacificpower.net/y... Peak is around 4pm to 8 pm and 6am to 10 am. It varies a bit by season. Peak solar production is centered at solar noon. In other words the end of peak solar production almost exactly start of peak usage. Here is Con-Edison and they call it super peak 2-6 pm http://www.coned.com/customerc...
" England the second (thanks to the US who confiscated a large part of her empire)." What part of the the old UK Empire did the us confiscate? India? that is just dumb.
Heartbleed and Shellshock show that nothing is really free. Those bugs would have been found long ago if big companies had put resources into FOSS. OpenSSL was used by everyone but had less than 20 active devs and a super skimpy budget. Bash? When was the last build of Bash before Shellshock?
World War I devastated Europe in both lives and in wealth. The US came out of WWI as a world power. Sure the US lost a lot of men but nothing like the number France, Germany, and the UK lost. The US filled the gap in science after WWI. It didn't hurt that Edison had invented the industrial research lab and other companies in the US soon developed labs of their own.
Not really von Braun did more as political figure than as an engineer. The Thor, Atlas, and Titan had very little input from von Braun and Polaris and Minuteman had zero. I doubt that religion had much to do with it. I am sure avoiding being slaves in Russia had a lot more to do with it.
My great grandfathers drug store was burned to the ground because he was unlucky enough to have the last name of Bosh in 1918. My uncle who was about 20 years older than my mother fought in WWII.
Once you change a language enough it is no longer the same language. I just do not see the issue. If you want C++ without C create a new language that fits that description. Apple created Objective c without c and called it Swift. So make C++ without c and call it Sure.

You left out divorce a swell which started to climb in the mid 70s.

I am pretty sure this is what they are trying to stop. Of course those contractors paid all the taxes due but some are less honest than others.
