2025-05-05 04:45:04| Spiritual Career Counseling

Community members, housing leaders and government officials gathered Monday at Deep Run Recreation Center to discuss the challenges in Henricos housing market from skyrocketing home prices to shortages in supply and barriers to affordability.The roundtable discussion, hosted by Supervisor Misty Roundtree as part of her Three Chopt Chats community meeting series, examined a crisis that she said has become bigger than one locality or the commonwealth but rather has turned into national issue.This housing issue is particularly important and personal to me, Roundtree said, recounting her journey from buying her first home in her early 20s using the GI Bill to losing two homes in foreclosure and spending years as a renter.Now I'm remarried and in a place where I can afford to buy, but I am receiving the sticker shock that so many people are [experiencing], she said.

The battle against federal ownership of New Mexicos public lands | Searchlight New Mexico

2025-05-05 04:45:04| Spiritual Career Counseling

In January and February, county governments in New Mexico, Arizona, Utah and North Carolina began passing resolutions containing nearly identical language. The resolutions oppose what they refer to as an abuse of the Antiquities Act of 1906. Enacted by Congress as people went west and frequently looted from historic sites, the law gave presidents the authority to protect any area on federal lands by declaring it a national monument. A deep anti-federal current runs through the county resolutions, and they express support for extractive industries and a general objection to the designation of lands, whether private lands or government lands as national monuments, wilderness, wilderness study areas, wildlife preserves, open space, or other conservation land.Hutchinson regularly communicates with a network of private property rights activists who jokingly refer to themselves as the Secret Meeting. He says that when reporters ask him for the groups name, the response might be, If we...

NASA Targets First Quantum Gravity Sensor Flight

2025-05-05 02:45:04| Spiritual Career Counseling

Researchers from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California, private companies, and academic institutions are developing the first space-based quantum sensor for measuring gravity. Supported by NASA's Earth Science Technology Office (ESTO), this mission will mark a first for quantum sensing and will pave the way for groundbreaking observations of everything from petroleum reserves to global supplies of fresh water.Earth's gravitational field is dynamic, changing each day as geologic processes redistribute mass across our planet's surface. The greater the mass, the greater the gravity.You wouldn't notice these subtle changes in gravity as you go about your day, but with sensitive tools called gravity gradiometers, scientists can map the nuances of Earth's gravitational field and correlate them to subterranean features like aquifers and mineral deposits. These gravity maps are essential for navigation, resource management, and national security."We could determine the mass o...
