Hey there!  It depends on what kind of environment you want to be able to detect smoke in, if it’s in a bedroom or living room, or in a kitchen.  Smoke detectors that are able to detect smoke from a long distance away (say 10 to 100 feet) might not be ideal for small spaces like a bedroom, where a typical smoke detector only detects smoke within 4 feet of the detector.  Conversely, they can be pretty powerful and effective in a kitchen, because smoke can travel up to 5 feet away and in towards the detector.

The most common way is to soak the turkey in a mixture of salt, sugar, and spices. How much you use depends on your tastes.

You can also make a "sugar brine": This has sugar as a primary ingredient and is often found in cookbooks.  A brine works well in a few ways: the salt penetrates the meat and draws out moisture, and the salt also inhibits the growth of bacteria.

There’s a lot of talk right now about what a candidate for the Republican Party might look like.

Prompt: Birds sure make a lot of noise. Why do they learn to mimic sounds like that? Assistant:

It seems to be a way of defending against predators.  A pigeon is a pretty vulnerable animal, and some of them are really easy to catch, for example with a net.  So the ones that are more alert to predators or learn to avoid them, are the ones that will survive.  Because the predators won’t be able to sneak up on them.  So birds that learn to make lots of noise and fly away at the sight of a predator are most likely to survive.  And so these things get passed along by learning.

The Kingdom of Kush fell because of a number of different reasons, most importantly because of local trade and diplomatic relationships.

However, the Kingdom of Kush was weakened by the similar factors that weakened the Kingdom of Egypt in the 7th Century BCE: foreign invasions, crippling taxation, and political infighting.
