AMERICANS PAYING FOR UNAMERICANS:
44% of rent stabilized units in NYC are occupied by people born outside of the US…

UPDATE: Eugene Volokh comments: “Just to be clear, about 38% of New Yorkers are foreign-born (not quite the same as ‘unAmerican,’ it seems to me). They are thus slightly overrepresented in ‘rent stabilized’ housing, but also slightly underrepresented (by the same 6%) in public housing, and at about their share of the population in market rental and rent-controlled housing. So it sounds like the native-born and non-native-born New Yorkers are on balance very similar to each other in their use of these particular kinds of benefits. Or am I missing something?”
GRADUALLY, THEN ALL AT ONCE: I Told You So: Crimea Is in Crisis, and the Trouble Is Getting Worse Inside Russia. “There is a huge traffic jam—for people who still have any fuel left to escape—of people who are trying to use the Crimean bridge that Putin built as a monument to himself and as the direct access for Russia to Crimea.”
CHANGE:
America is currently experiencing a profound awakening to its Appalachian roots.
For decades, coastal media dismissed this region as an afterthought, an isolated pocket of the past.
But today, everyday Americans are hungry for something real.

FOLLOW THE SCIENCE: A single letter in 1968 ruined MSG’s reputation. Science is finally clearing its name. “So how did a completely natural flavor enhancer become one of the most misunderstood ingredients in modern history? It’s a recipe that calls for a bit of bad science, a dash of cultural bias, and a single letter written to a medical journal. In 1968, a doctor wrote a letter to the New England Journal of Medicine about several symptoms he was experiencing. He reported numbness and even heart palpitations after eating at local Chinese restaurants. This physician’s observation led him to a hypothesis: could MSG be the cause? This single query did not immediately prompt the medical community to conduct a peer-reviewed study. Instead, the media ran wild with the story. Local papers and news broadcasts associated MSG with the dubious term ‘Chinese Restaurant Syndrome.’ And just like that, a safe food additive used around the globe became a culinary villain. And the stigma has stuck around ever since. . . . When FDA scientists finally put MSG to the test in the ’90s, the “syndrome” myth quickly crumbled. Research shows that consuming MSG in normal amounts causes no adverse symptoms.”
It’s amazing how many medical “facts” have similarly shaky roots.
