Cat behavior explained? I asked regular and valued visitors to this site to write about "cat behavior". Their mini-essays are published below. Unprompted, they wrote about human behavior. This is correct. You cannot ignore the most significant factor with regards to cat behavior, which is our expectations, the environment that we create for ourselves and our cat, and how we interact with them. Cats are very sensitive to their environment. Their behavior reflects their environment. We create the environment.
The authors are highly qualified on the subject of cat behavior but their voice is yet to be formally heard. The name of the person heads the text.
There are many such people. You don't have to be a cat behavior expert who is widely published to explain cat behavior. You need to rely on common sense and have a deep respect for the cat born out of a general respect for all creatures.
Our cat is a domesticated African wild cat. It happened 10,000 years ago but if we reference back to wild cat behavior we will understand domestic cat behavior. Fundamentally, the domestic cat is a cat's whisker away from the wild cat.
If you would like to read an in-depth article about all aspects of cat behavior, this page might help.
"It's really too bad that we cannot get articles from the cats themselves on the topic of human behavioural problems as experienced by domestic cat companion animals.
Clawing of furniture would be one example– especially for an indoor cat. One of the ways that cats remove the older layers of claws is to claw on things. All of my collection of shed cat claws comes from Tootsie's cat claw towers, or nearby.
A cat's gotta do what a cat's gotta do. Like take care of their claws.
A very few times Tootsie tried clawing furniture, or the bed springs. I'd just remove her, and say "no, you don't want to do that", and take her to the cat tower, where she got ample reinforcement for clawing. Oh, good kitty! What a good girl! etc.
No more attempts to claw furniture.
The cat tower (surrounded with carpet) worked because it suited Tootsie. Other cats seem to like corrugated cardboard claw pads. Or sisal rope. So, it's also a matter of figuring out what suits the cat.
From the moment you decide to take a kitten or cat into your family the way you think must change. Even deciding if you should choose a kitten or a grown cat is huge, for example do you have the time and patience to care for a kitten who doesn't sleep the appx 16 hrs a day that adult cats do?
Kittens have bursts of energy and play quite violently and then fall asleep instantly only to awake shortly after and do it all over again, and this is day and night, so if you think that maybe you couldn't cope with behavior that compares with the terrible two's in human babies then you should consider adopting an older cat past this stage.
Another important issue to think about is do you have the patience to teach your cat right from wrong in a gentle and tolerant way? By this I mean that although cats are extremely intelligent they may not readily accept your house rules, so if you decide for example that there will be no scratching of furniture and your cat decides that in fact the sofa is ideal for the purpose of stretching muscles in the paws, legs and back and shedding claw shards have you the patience to repeatedly show your cat where he should be performing these exercises without resorting to surgically amputating his toe ends as a short cut to training?
Having made your decision and brought into the family your new feline member you now have to forever "think cat" and that is to look at every aspect of your home and decide if it is cat safe. This includes open windows, can they be guarded in some way so that your cat cannot accidentally fall out while trying to catch a housefly or a bird outside the window. Are wires to electrical appliances safely tucked away from tiny paws and mouths that know nothing of electrical shocks? Can you train yourself and your family not to step backwards without checking for a furry figure sitting behind you? Do you know which house and garden plants are safe and which are poisonous to cats?
This knowledge could mean life or death to your cat.You should also decide if your cat will be a member of the family with full rights to enjoy home comforts. Will he be allowed access to the lounge and bedroom? Some people think allowing cats onto beds is unclean, my opinion is I am honoured when my cat chooses to crawl into bed and into my arms, such moments are beautiful and show perfectly how much trust he has in me to allow me to hold him in the vulnerability of his sleep.
I guess the true cat lover realises that most of the adapting will be done by the humans, we are the ones that choose to adopt the cat, we know that cats are animals with instincts for different behavior to us, we know that cats have claws and teeth, we know they need regular grooming, play, a bed, access to clean water, litter, quality food and veterinary attention, in fact in the UK our Animal Welfare law quite rightly demands this so in the end the most important thing to consider is can you provide the cat with everything he needs, wants and deserves?
The key to understanding a cat is to realise that what is bad behavior in a human is not the same in a cat. A new cat caretaker may have different expectations about a kitten. Encouraging him to play rough by rolling him over and tickling his tummy may be amusing but it gives the wrong message to the kitten. When he grows up he will be confused as to why it is wrong to bite and kick his human family's hands and feet.
Stop a kitten from biting inappropriately by silently distracting him. Have cat toys handy and put one gently by his mouth or throw it for him to chase. When he grabs the toy, praise him saying his name. He soon learns that bad behavior brings silence, good behavior brings praise. To stop him scratching a person or the furniture, follow the same rule. Silently lift him to his scratching post and praise him saying his name when he uses it. It's easy to show a kitten how to do that by dragging your own nails down while he watches, then gently guide his front legs up the post until he digs in his claws.
Scratching is not bad behavior in a cat, it is necessary behavior. He will soon learn that using his own furniture brings him praise. Cats need consistency and routine.Gently lifting him down from places he won't be allowed when he is bigger teaches him if he goes there he will be removed. Punishment is unkind and pointless. The cat only becomes nervous of the person punishing him. They learn by kindness and patience. A mother cat keeps her kittens under control by carrying them by the scruff of their necks but a human should never pick up a kitten or a cat by the scruff unless in an emergency and there is no other way to handle him. A cat's whole body needs support on being picked up. Reach down with both hands and hold him with one while making a seat with the other,always slowly and gently.
Cats should never be lifted by their front legs, the whole weight of their body on those legs can cause dislocation of the joints. Although cats have been domesticated for thousands of years now, they still have their wild instincts deep inside and a threatened or frightened cat will naturally lash out.
It's wrong to praise a cat if he catches a mouse, yet to show displeasure if he catches a bird. He doesn't know that although most people dislike mice, they admire birds.Even well fed cats have the hunting instinct. It's Nature's way of ensuring the survival of the fittest. A cat needs food and water in a regular place, a warm bed and the love and understanding of his human family. He likes attention and fun and games but he also likes to sleep in peace and should be allowed to do so.
Children need to learn to handle a kitten gently and to respect when he wants to sleep that they should leave him alone. A cat needs privacy for his toileting needs, his litter tray should be placed in a quiet corner and nowhere near the place he is normally fed. Cats hate to be laughed at but they love it if you laugh with them and soon learn how to create a happy atmosphere in the home.
"What's my motivation?" You might hear an actor or actress ask this question when trying to get into character. It's a good question. We all have things that motivate us: we desire things like food and rest, but we also desire to be loved, to acquire possessions, or to have a good time. Understanding what motivates a person can be a key to understanding his or her behavior. So what motivates cats? I would say, quite often, it is the desire to hunt and kill something. Cat behavior is in reality the behavior of a predator, for he is one of nature's best predators. The wonder and miracle is that these fierce little creatures will condescend to share our homes with us. This does not mean that house cats are not predators. You cannot totally take that wild element from cats, even if you take their claws. They are still hunters, but hunters without their natural weapons. Declawing a cat will undoubtedly cause psychological damage, because their claws are so much a part of their essential nature.
My message to those who would understand cat behavior is to look always to a cat's place in the wild, for what he is there is what he still is even when he is sleeping on your bed at night. Responsible cat caretakers will keep this in mind. A variety of toys are needed to provide stimulation for inside only cats. Scratching posts of various heights and sizes should be provided. If a cat is allowed outside, cat enclosures are a good option. Some cats will tolerate a leash and harness. I believe it is good for cats to experience the outdoors, so long as they are safe doing so.
When outside in our fenced yard with my cat Monty, I will often scare away potential prey. This causes him to look at me as if I am hopelessly stupid. I must confess, I have not always been quick enough to prevent Monty from taking the life of a bird. (This has happened frequently enough that my sister has taken to calling him "Killer.") His killing of birds is where our differing motivations come into conflict. Monty played out his role as predator perfectly, and though I couldn't bring myself to praise him for it, I did not scold him.
But I took the reminder to heart: A cat is not a throw pillow. He is not just something to snuggle and hold on the cold winter nights. He is a predator by nature and will always be a predator, no matter how pampered or well fed. It would be much easier to possess a furry little throw pillow, but it would be far less interesting. We can learn from our cats if we are willing to treat them as cats by respecting that their motivations and drives are at times quite different from our own.
Well now I can speak from over 40 years of experience with cats as when me and my twin sister were born our parents had 4 so we always had cats in our life and knew no different.
The secret of having happy and good cats is simply that its best to have a relaxed household.
You have to understand that cats are not kids and our parents didnt treat them like they did us kids because they wouldnt have liked it. Cats are not people so shouldn't be expected to behave as we do.
We had to learn right from wrong and how people have to behave for others to accept us but cats are different. You have to accept that cats are cats and behave by their instinct not by their thoughts like we do.
So if we were rough with a cat and got scratched it was our fault as we had got told to be nice and not pester the cats.
Our mam said she never left us alone with the cats until we proved we were responsible enough to treat them right. It's not cats that need to learn how to behave, it's kids because then they grow up into sensible independant adults.
Cats always have to rely on people to look after them all their life. We grew up respecting cats and they loved us and we loved them and we both have our own cats in our own homes since we grew up.
Shouting at cats is no good and I get annoyed when people say you should hit them or even squirt water as I think what a miserable life it is for a cat frightened of their people.
People who say give them time out like some teach kids don't know much about cats as cats don't know what time out is for. You can tell a kid what he's done wrong and not to do it again but you have to actually show a cat what not to do. If you hurt them they don't know why, I don't think anyone should hurt kids or cats.
Like I said you only need to show a cat what to do, like where to scratch, if you don't get them a scratching post what can you expect them to scratch on? They have to scratch to keep their body fit and to keep their claws healthy as well.
If you don't want them to go on certain places lift them off and they learn where they can or can't go.
Another thing is that cats don't show their feelings of illness like people show theirs so you have to know if they are not acting like they usually do there is something wrong.
They can't tell us they get lonely if we leave them too long so we need to remember not to do that and if we have to go away we must get someone we trust to look after them.
If they can't go out because its too dangerous then they must have things to stop them living a life of boredom. They need a lot of our attention. No one should have a cat if they can't give him or her a cats life of happiness and love and attention. No one in countries where declawing is legal should have a cat if they don't like their claws because cats claws are not negotiable, they are essential and taking them off them is very cruel.

Recognizing that people are choosing or being forced to retire at earlier and earlier ages, the authors have looked at 100 different small businesses started by people after they have left their nine-to-five jobs. The businesses range from tiny home-based enterprises started to supplement the retiree's income and fill spare time to larger businesses with numerous employees involving long hours of hard work. Each business profile contains a summary table detailing start-up costs, success potential, time commitment, advantages and disadvantages, and sources for more information. The book's main strength is its provision of testimonials, which offer a good source of ideas for those looking to start a business whether they are retired or not. Also included are sections on business selection, self-assessment, and business plan development. Although there is not a great deal of information on each business, this is a good starting point.

NEW DELHI: The Income Tax Department is "chasing" 80,000 cases where people have not filed their returns post-demonetisation, despite the taxman sending them notices to do so, a senior official said on Wednesday. After inaugurating a stall of the Income Tax Department at the India International Trade Fair at Pragati Maidan here, Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) Chairman Sushil Chandra said the taxman has also identified nearly 80 lakh people who had filed their returns during the past three years but have not done that so far.The chief of CBDT, which frames policy for the Income Tax Department, said the November 2016 decision to demonetise high-value currency "really helped in increasing the tax base in the country and as well as the net revenue of this country from direct taxes".
"If you see, last year contribution of direct taxes was 52 per cent and the contribution of indirect taxes was 48 per cent. This has happened after many years that the contribution of direct taxes is more than the indirect taxes," he added.
Talking about enforcement by the department after the notes ban declaration by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the CBDT chief said they have sent emails and SMSes to a large number of people who have filed their returns after this communication.
"Around 3 lakh notices were sent to persons who did not file returns post the demonetisation. These are statutory notices. About 2.25 lakh people filed their returns thereafter. In 80,000 cases, where the returns were not filed, the department is chasing and the assessment will have to be framed," he said.
Apart from the post-demonetisation exercise, the department is also pursuing those who have not filed their returns on time.
"We have also identified around 80 lakh persons who had filed returns in last three years but they have not filed it so far. I am expecting large no of returns (in the coming days). In the total 6.02 crore returns filed this year, there are 86 lakh new taxpayers," Mr Chandra said.
Mr Chandra said the Central Board of Direct Taxes was leaving no stone unturned to ensure that targets of revenue collection set for them are met by the end of the financial year in March next year.
"We are reviewing each and every region where targets are not being met. I have already written to all the regions and they are taking necessary steps," he said.

Let's start this review with something not completely irrelevant, only mostly so: originating from Wales, the word cromlech is quite familiar to me – it denotes a type of megalithic tomb, consisting of one very large flat roof stone held up by smaller uprights. I am not entirely sure whether this selection of shamanic/ritualistic pieces has any connection to megalithic tombs, but in the abstract I am guessing that there is a line connecting the age of stone monuments and the 25 short pieces of music presented here. As I've argued elsewhere, shamanisn/animism (one of the first belief systems that evolved) was an essential ingredient in the spiritual lives of the people that lived thousands of years ago, as it was a way of keeping the lines of familial and tribal connections open and living.
And what we get is, in many respects, a collision between the ancient and modern – field recordings, tribal percussion, voices, and synthesised sounds. The artists involved, André Consciênscia and Eunice Correia, admit that these are crude recordings, but I don't think that's a negative in this case: the essence of shamanic ritual is to strip away the layers pertaining to this world and all its unrefined materiality until the celebrant attains access to the purer 'otherworld' of spiritual existence. One can easily envision the proceedings: no modern paraphernalia, just a couple of skyclad participants, accompanied by primitive instrumentation, enacting the mysteries of initiation around ancient stones put up by people whose names are unknown but whose intentions are clear nevertheless. The rhythmic drums, gyrations, chanting, and ecstatic howling are deliberately engineered to open up the pathways between those ancient lives and the ones we live today.
Electronic ambient atmospherics are often interjected around the (very) basic structures of many the songs, and for the most part the integration is highly successful, injecting layers of depth and substance which only add to the enigmatic ritualistic aspect, as well as hinting at those elements of the immaterial that cannot be seen but only felt. Like I said, this approach does reap dividends, although one or two of the pieces I felt disturbed the equilibrium somewhat through the use of synths and organs (I am thinking in particular of 'The Frost Daughter' and 'The Scarlet Queen') – they threw me out of the overall feel of this album and I felt they were a bit of an intrusion, feeling more like soundtrack compositions than stripped back shamanic conjurations. The rest of the pieces revolve around a much more tribalistic and dare I say 'primitive' core, the beating heart as it were of the sacrosanct nature of the ceremonies being performed.
There are moments when it's about as sparse and threadbare of unnecessary adornments as it's possible to be. And that, I think, is a powerful thing – in an age when music appears to be overproduced, over-layered, and overfilled, this is the species of composition which practically begs us to reconnect with and to be aware of the world around us. We're plunged into a world where even the minutest sound contains and signifies meaning, sounds that delineate an existence that we've allowed ourselves to become divorced from. What's more, these pieces also allow us to physically feel the reawakened links forged by ritual – our skin feels the winds that once blew through the hair of the tomb, mound, and sacred site builders, our bare feet the very ground upon which priests and priestesses trod when celebrating their own mysteries of life, birth, rebirth, and death. After all, a properly observed ritual should bestow insight and unalloyed clarity of vision and mind.
Allow yourself to sink into the milieu of the ancient peoples that once roamed the green land and join with the shamans of the 21st century in reinvesting and repairing our denuded landscape with the lines that infused the entire spectrum of material existence with power. Those ancient tribespeople not only knew about that power's presence but also felt it – perhaps it's time for us to do so again.

If you have a C7, this may the grille for you!
The active grille system for the 2014-2015 Corvette Stingray is a new aerodynamic drag reduction automotive grille designed for the C7 Corvette. The patent pending design was developed by Forgiato Wheels. The function of the Active Grille System is to divert airflow away from the engine compartment, forcing it to travel around the hood and fenders. This results in a less restrictive path, reducing vehicle lift and aerodynamic drag. Diverting air around the vehicle has shown to improve fuel efficiency. The active grille software uses throttle position to determine the amount of air flow through the grille. The active grille system is unique in this product market segment due to its function and appearance transforming design. It changes from an aggressive looking cosmetic grille into an aerodynamic improvement device. Our patent pending electronic control unit performs the operation of the grille function automatically.
parked, the grille cycles through its automated functions.

I had a requirement to capture the response from at least 100 calls to a web service. This was to enable a manual check of the response by a non IT staff member who needed the responses in the form of an Excel file.
I was able to complete this using the free version of SoapUI 4.6.4 utilizing some groovy scripting. You may also like to download Fiddler2 to check things are working.
The scripting was largely a cut and paste job using code provided by M. McDonald at http://forum.loadui.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=16354#p38935.
If you are not familiar with SoapUI Groovy and Java, it can be very confusing but don't despair!
Download a free version of SoapUI and install it.
I have created a workspace to store my projects in called Automation. At this point, we go to 'File'-> 'New Soap Project' and fill in the Project Name and the location of the .wsdl file for the web service.
Ensure you tick 'Create Requests' and 'Create TestSuite', then click 'OK'.
SoapUI will check the web service and return all the operations/methods you can call on that service. In my case, there is only one operation called SubmitRequestResponse, but I have selected 'Single TestCase with One Request for Each Operation' anyway.
Click 'OK' and you will be prompted to name the Test.
I called mine 'Multiple Calls TestSuit'.
If you double click on Request 1, you get a basic request form.
We need to ensure that the calls will get a response from the web service before we proceed so we add a soap request. In my case, the web service requires a customer number followed by a site location tag followed by one or more SalesOrders. So I replace the <part>?</part> tags in the body with my soap request.
Click the green arrow (top left) and you will get an XML response.
If you have a response, you are where you need to be.
At this point, we know that SoapUI can send requests to our web service and return a response.
Now we need to set up our Test Steps and Test Scripts.
Create a directory in your file system and add two subdirectories.
In requests, we need to add the request files.
They must also have a file extension of .xml.
Examine the structure of the project and ensure that the Test Steps (1) section is expanded. Double clicking the SubmitRequestResponse shows a basic soap header. We can ignore this for now.
Right click the Test Steps header and select 'Add Step' and choose 'Groovy Script'.
Click 'OK' and the Groovy editor will appear.
It is here that we add our first script.
The test scripts were supplied by M. McDonald (see above).
The first step defines an array.
Next is a section that creates a file from our test files directory and adds it to the fileList array. It also trims off some characters, checks the size of the array to ensure some files exist, then adds the array to the 'context object' so the array is available to the other test steps we will create.
We need to change the second line to reflect the paths to our files and add a quick check.
The line 'log.info filename' causes the names of the files in the request directory to be printed to the script log.
Click the script log button at the bottom of the Step1 window, then click the green arrow top left to run the script. You should see the list of files printed out.
Ok so far. We have successfully read the names of the files in our request directory and displayed them. It might be good at this point to comment out the line which prints out the filenames from the array.
We already have step 2, it's called SubmitRequestResponse. Rename it to 'Step2'.
NOTICE I HAVE CHANGED THE PATH TO THE REQUEST DIRECTORY !!!
We can now test both scripts to see if they are working.
Just Install Fiddler Web Debugger.
Fiddler allows you to monitor what you are sending to and what you are receiving from the web service.
Go back to SoapUI and look at 'File'-> 'Preferences'-> 'Proxy Settings'. My settings are set to 'Automatic'. I had some problems with this as I was initially using SSL.
By Dinesh K Mandal, 8 Sep 2011.
To test if everything is working, go back to SoapUI and double click your test case. In my case, it's called 'BasicHttpBinding_ITwoWayAsync TestSuite'.
This is good. If you didn't see a session appearing, save everything in SoapUI and restart it, then try again.
Take a look at Fiddler and you will see a session has been captured.
If you click on the session and view the results as XML, you will see the request going to the web service in the top panel and the response from the web service in the bottom panel.
We have successfully called our web service and had a response returned. We now need a step to save the response to a file.
Back to SoapUI and right click on 'Test Steps (2) and select 'Add Step' ->'Groovy Script'. Rename it to 'Step3'.
Add the following script to the Groovy window, changing the directories to match your directory structure.
This piece of scripting gets the array from the context (see Step1), takes a file from the array, gets its name and removes the .xml from name. It then gets the response that was returned from Step2 and stores it as 'response'.
It then creates a new file in the response directory and names it as the old file but also adding ' _Response.xml' to the file name.
It then writes the response from the web service into the file.
There is a final section that checks the size of the array and if it is greater than 0, there is still a test to run so the gotoStepByName function says goto 'Step2'.
Double click the 'Test Steps (3)' test case and run the Test Suite.
Check Fiddler and take a look in the Response directory.
This was to save me grief in the future but hey the real information was from M. McDonald and Dinesh K. Mandal.
All the XML Requests are parallel ??
Currently, all the XML requests are in parallel. How can i make the requests to run one after another as there is dependency between the XML requests.
I am sending JSON files as request and getting responses in soap UI tool using Groovy script for Rest Project.
But I found error in step 2, as it is not retrieving the content of JSON file. Below is my code.
Thank you, I managed to do the above code.But can you please assist on how do I do, if I have multiple requests in the requests folder, Like I want to execute Multiple requests sequentially.
The file is generated with following error . Please help me.
Yours is the same error as mine. Below is what I did to resolve the issue. Hopefully it resolves yours too.
Please reply back to confirm if this solved your problem, else comment back with your issue. We'll resolve it.
I am facing the same issue , can you please send me the step2 code.. its very urgent..
I realize that this is old, but this was exactly what I needed. Thanks!
Hi Guys,Can someone guide me to kick start this?Thanks in Advance!!
I am badly need of this !!
This blog explains things from scratch itself.
You see the first line says "Download free version of SoapUI..."
Please follow each step in the blog and I am sure your problem will be solved.
Drop in a comment if you have any queries or if you are stuck up with some error.
i tried to follow your article step by step. However, I am hit with an issue.
The context set in the second step is not visible in step 3.meaning, when i try to access context in steo 3 its giving me null.
did u come across this issue.
I suppose you named the step as 'Step 2' and you are calling the context as 'Step2'.
The space between 'Step' and '2' is probably the problem.

News Release 8-Dec-2021
Modeling emissions pathways for India's climate amid COVID-19 recovery
Varying emissions strategies can impact temperature & extreme weather
Peer-Reviewed Publication
Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences
As the global economic recovery from COVID-19 continues, decisions regarding emissions strategies can have important implications on regional climate change. A new paper in Environmental Research Letters explores the impact of such decisions in India, modeling the effects of COVID-19 emissions recovery pathways on India's summertime climate.
"Anthropogenic emissions can be linked to extreme weather events in India and beyond," explains Peter Sherman, a researcher in the Harvard-China Project on Energy, Economy and Environment in the Harvard University John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and Ph.D candidate in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences. "This study provides an important discussion on how India – a nation which is likely to be particularly susceptible to climate change over the coming decades – may be affected by emissions changes as the world transitions out of the COVID-19 pandemic."
The team of researchers – which include Harvard undergraduate Jonathan D'Souza as first author and two high school students from Cambridge Rindge and Latin School (mentored by Harvard University and University of Cambridge researchers) as contributing authors – modeled the impact of three different scenarios on India's climate: fossil-based recovery, a strong renewable-based recovery and a moderate scenario in between the two.
The team found that a fossil fuel-based recovery pathway leads to higher summertime aerosol concentrations in the long term, in contrast to greener scenarios. The greener scenarios may actually drive a positive feedback loop, where the solar PV capacity factor improves with reduced air pollution – incentivizing further investment in renewables which should further reduce aerosol emissions.
The researchers also found that extreme temperature and precipitation events in India are expected to increase in magnitude and frequency regardless of the emissions commitments going forward. However, the spatial patterns of these changes as well as the extent of the change are pathway dependent. They found that while decreasing fossil fuel emissions will reduce the greenhouse effect (and consequently extreme temperature events), concurrent emissions reductions in aerosols and their precursors may balance these effects at the regional level.
"These projected changes in summertime temperature and precipitation extremes could have broad consequences for India from perspectives of both agriculture and human health," says Michael B. McElroy, Gilbert Butler Professor of Environmental Studies at Harvard University and Chair of the Harvard-China Project. "We found that the emissions of aerosols and its precursors will likely play a more dominant role on precipitation over India in the coming decades, relative to the changes expected for greenhouse gases – meaning that while it is important to implement sustainable policies today, it is also important to be mindful of the complex balance between greenhouse warming and aerosol-induced cooling when reducing emissions."

We want to be a country with a competitive edge in the world. And a country with a solid democracy. To do that, we need to attack the social problems, and extreme poverty is probably the worst of those.
Sacrificing American soldiers or innocent civilians in an unprecedented preemptive attack on a separate sovereign nation may well prove itself a most temporary medicine.
Harvard University researchers found that women at high risk of heart disease who had a tablespoon of peanut butter five or more days a week appeared to nearly halve their risk of suffering a heart attack compared with women who ate one serving or less per week.

Saskatchewan From Many People's Strength ~ A Birthday Quiz
Saskatchewan's birthday celebration arrives on September 1. On September 1, 1905, Saskatchewan became a province, with inaugural celebrations held September 4. September 1, 2005 was the 100th anniversary of our province, and in 2012 we carry on the tradition with the 107th anniversary celebration!
Who were some of the people within the Saskatchewan communities? What were some of the local histories and events? The provincial motto Multis e gentibus vires is Latin meaning "From Many Peoples Strength." If you were to delve into the history of the province of Saskatchewan what questions would you ask? What questions would you form about the people and its residents?
Here is a short quiz centering upon the province of Saskatchewan, its people culture and formation.

When Were Saskatchewan Homestead Applications Available?
Pioneers settling the Canadian "Last Best West" could apply for a homestead for a $10 filing fee if they were British subjects over the age of 18. A genealogist researching a family tree starts from the known and works toward the unknown to discover names, dates and places of their ancestors. The various homestead and lands databases online assist this endeavour for Saskatchewan about one century ago.
Between 1870 to 1930 Letters Patent were issued by the Lands Patent Branch of the Department of the Interior to successful homesteaders. To be successful pioneers needed to "prove up" their land. Settlers had to live on their homesteads for a three year period, clearing and farming some of the land and making improvements.
From 1871 until 1890 and again from 1908 until 1918, a homesteader who had received patent on his homestead could apply for a pre-emption. They would pay the market price of the time which was about $2.00 acre, this rate changed and the rate was recorded as $1, $2 or $3 an acre depending on the era. Even numbered sections were reserved for homesteads and pre-emptions, while odd-numbered sections were sold. A pre-emption was the quarter section adjacent to his homestead if it was available. In this way the homesteader could expand his own farm for himself or for his children.
Homesteaders had the option to purchase Hudson Bay Company lands, railway lands, and school lands. These gave way also to larger farms. Sections 11 and 29 of each township were allocated toward school sections. Railway rants allowed the Canadian Pacific Railway (C.P.R.) 24 miles on either side of the railroad. The Dominion Lands Act of 1872 provided that the Company should receive all of section 8 in each township, all of section 26 in each township with a number divisible by 5, and the southern half and the northwest quarter of section 26 in all other townships.
240 acres of land were offered to Métis families between 1886-1902. Due to the location of these lands, a majority of Métis sold their scrip to land speculators.
In 1871, land grants were offered to soldiers and militia who had served in Manitoba and the North West Territories, to North West Rebellion veterans, Boer War veterans, and North West Mounted Police retirees. The 1918 Soldier Settlement Act provided World War I veterans with a free quarter section of land or scrip.
There were some ranching concerns in the southern portion of the province, where land was leased out for grazing. From 1872 to 1905, open grazing leases were available. These lands were not guaranteed in any way, and could be put up for sale.
After 1908, a closed grazing lease of farming land in Saskatchewan could be obtained for one cent an acre for up to 21 years subject to a two year's cancellation.
In 1914, grazing leases of 12,000 acres of unfit farming land could be obtained under a ten year closed lease. There were many other subsequent changes in regulations concerning grazing land periodically.
The pioneer starting out with their quarter section homestead may continue on the land and expand by purchasing additional land from a variety of sources. They may sell their land after successfully proving it up, and re-locate. A few homesteaders were not successful, and in such cases a Declaration of Abandonment was filed with the Land Titles Office.
Using the Land Patent database held by Library and Archives Canada LAC, the Land Titles Application database called The Saskatchewan Homestead Index Project (SHIP), the Saskatchewan Genealogy Society's HOME (Historical Ownership Mapping Endeavour) or the Glenbow Archives CPR database which shows "Sales of agricultural land by the Canadian Pacific Railway to settlers in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, 1881-1906." One piece of the family history search may indeed be completed, and that would be to discover their place of residence.
The place of residence can further unlock local history books, birth, marriage and cemetery records which may be held locally and census records.
An important clue in early Saskatchewan genealogy research is to delve into legal land locations and determining homestead locations and expansion.

Surveying Western Canada allocated parcels of land for homesteads, schools, the Hudson Bay Company, rail lines, Métis and First Nations. The Minister of the Interior, Clifford Sifton encouraged settlement.
In 1871 the Dominion Land Survey of the Prairies is initiated. There were less than fifteen survey parties setting out in that first season. Plans of the township surveys were published.
The surveying system for Western Canada adopted followed the example set in the United States, and departed from the survey system followed in Eastern Canada.
Due to the reports set out by the 1857-1858 Henry Youle Hind and Simon Dawson Canadian expedition, the arable land surveyed was south of the tree line. The grasslands area of southern Saskatchewan was used by ranching operations, before giving way to farming land with improved agricultural techniques.
Homestead applications generally followed the laying of the rail lines. The densest immigration population therefore sprung up around the first rail line in south east Saskatchewan arriving from Winnipeg. Population density then expanded to other areas with the rail branch lines. If a town existed before the rail line came, and the rail line bypassed the settlement, the town was abandoned as is the case of Cannington Manor. The town may optionally decide to move; buildings and everything were moved to be located on the rail line . Nipawin aligned itself with the Canadian Pacific Railway built four miles northwest of the settlement to access the river for the steam engines.
Sections 11 and 29 (one mile by one mile) of each township (six miles by six miles) were set aside for schools in the township. These two sections totaled 3,994,400 acre of land for Saskatchewan. The actual one room school house building may not be built on one of these sections, rather, the land was sold or leased and the moneys received from the transaction was put toward building a school for the area. The actual size of a school yard was a fraction of the size of a quarter section of land (1/4 mile by 1/4 mile).
Sections 8 and 3/4 of section 26 were set aside to complete the Hudson Bay agreement when Canada acquired Rupert's Land.
In 1880, an act was passed to put aside odd numbered sections for 24 miles on both sides of the rail lines for a grant of 25,000,000 acres of land between Winnipeg and the Rocky Mountains. 15,177,063 acres were granted in Saskatchewan. An additional 5,728,092 acres were granted to the Hudson Bay Railway to complete the rail line.
Under the 1879 Manitoba act, the Métis received land grants amounting to 238,500 acres of land in Saskatchewan called scrip.
Certain lands amounting to 1,166,000 acres were withheld from homesteading for Indian reserves as per terms of First Nations treaties.
The Saskatchewan Atlas provides maps of the evolution of population density and settlement. Captain John Palliser's belief that settlement would only occur in the forested area supporting an economic livelihood of trapping was abandoned as settlers came west to farm in the western prairie. Homesteaders proved up their homesteads, made improvements and advancements were made in agricultural technologies.

Latest Must-Reads in Public Diplomacy: January 2020
The January edition of CPD Faculty Fellow Bruce Gregory's public diplomacy reading list is now available. Known affectionately at CPD as "Bruce's List," this list is a compilation of books, journal articles, papers and blogs on a wide variety of PD topics and features a number of CPD scholars.
Highlights from this latest list include:
"Cyber Diplomacy," PD Magazine, Center on Public Diplomacy, University of Southern California, Issue 22, Fall/Winter 2019. In this edition of PD Magazine, USC students and an array of international scholars and practitioners discuss issues relevant to diplomacy and its practice in the cyber domain. The articles divide into five sections. (1) "Equipping diplomats for the cyber age" begins with a lead article by Shaun Riordan (European Institute for International Studies) on "Cyber Diplomacy: Why Diplomats Need to Get Into Cyberspace." (2) A section on "Cyber diplomacy's rising stars" focuses on Qatar, Estonia, and Georgia. (3) An article by Ilan Manor (Oxford Digital Diplomacy Research Group), "Are Digital Rights Human Rights?" leads a section on "Overcoming Disinformation." (4) "Social media: A Powerful Cyber Ally" opens with USC Blog Contributor Franklin T. Burroughs' essay on "The Diplomatic Tower of Babel." (5) "Preparing for the Cyber Future" features an article by Devin Villacis (USC Master of Public Diplomacy candidate), "Bottom Lines and Data Dossiers: How Big Tech Commodifies Your Privacy."
Kyle Hutzler, America's Cities on the World's Stage, CPD Perspectives, USC Center on Public Diplomacy, Paper 5, December 2019. Hutzler (Stanford Graduate School of Business) contributes to the growing literature on city diplomacy with this report based on interviews with city and state practitioners and experts in subnational diplomacy. His approach is actor-centric, focusing on managerial issues and "questions of strategy, organization, and operations." He surveys city diplomacy's historical context and issues of constitutionality. His report then examines the relevance of city size and four categories of city diplomacy: trade and investment, goodwill, knowledge sharing, and co-governance on issues such as climate policy and border management. Hutzler's well-researched 93-page report makes a number of recommendations, provides an analytical framework, lists references from the literature on city diplomacy, and seeks to put the practitioners interviewed "in conversation with each other."
Matthew Wallin, "White Paper – A New American Message," American Security Project (ASP), December 2019. In this White Paper, the ASP's Fellow for Public Diplomacy Matthew Wallin advances three core arguments. America's values are central to its message and under attack at home and abroad. The US is failing to uphold its values, and this failure is displayed globally in 24-hour news and social media. A new American message must be defined largely by actions not words. Wallin identifies a variety of needed changes in behavior: close the say-do gap, engage in active listening, recommit to truth, maintain leadership in science, send more exchange students abroad, strengthen diplomatic capacity, keep America's commitments, support individual freedom, empower individuals abroad and promote collaboration, and set an example on refugees and migrants.
The full list, including works by CPD Faculty Fellows Philip Seib and Jan Melissen, CPD Research Fellows Alexander Buhmann (2016-2018) and Deborah L. Trent (2014-2016), Past Visiting Scholar Evan Potter, and CPD Blog Contributors Erich Sommerfeldt, Angela Lewis, Eriks Varpahovskis, Benjamin Leffel and Marcus Holmes, is available here.

Whether you're into fishing, sailing, diving, cruising or just having fun, boating safety awareness is essential.
Many boating tragedies are caused by an error in judgement relating to equipment, the weather or behaviour. Make sure you keep out of trouble by knowing the environment, having the right equipment on board and acting responsible at all times.
Boats, especially ones under six metres in length, can sink very quickly. Wearing a life jacket increases your survival time in the water.
The skipper is responsible for the safety or everyone on board and for the safe operation of the boat. Stay within the limits of your vessel and your experience.
A true story courtesy of Maritime New Zealand.
A VHF radio saved the lives of three boaties when their boat capsized. Carry at least two waterproof ways to call for help - VHF radios and distress beacons are great options. Learn more: http://www.maritimenz.govt.nz/vhf.
Even though no licence is required to operate a pleasure boat in New Zealand, ignorance of any Maritime Rules or Bylaws is not accepted as an excuse. Failure to comply can lead to fines or prosecution.
Coastguard Boating Education is New Zealand's leading provider of recreational boating courses. There are courses for all levels of knowledge and ability, including the Day Skipper course, which should be completed by anyone in charge of a boat.

Vancouver family welcomes twins born from embryos frozen 30 years ago
Philip and Rachel Ridgeway adopted embryos that had been frozen since 1992. Twins Lydia and Timothy were born in October 2022.
Author: Alma McCarty (KGW)

VANCOUVER, Wash. — A couple from Vancouver, Washington adopted embryos earlier this year that had been frozen since 1992. Last month, the babies were born and the Ridgeways welcomed a set of twins into their family.
The embryos — frozen in liquid nitrogen 30 years ago — were successfully thawed, transferred and finally delivered, breaking the record for the longest frozen embryos to ever result in a successful live birth.
Lydia and Timothy Ridgeway are only a month old. Parents Philip and Rachel couldn't be happier to have grown their family through embryo adoption.
"We are Evangelical Christians and we believe that, but the Bible teaches that life begins at conception and we thought, 'What better way to put our money where our mouth is?'" said Philip Ridgeway.
The couple decided to go with the profile that had been waiting the longest.
"We looked for the smallest number and found our donor profile and said, 'OK, it looks like there's no one else that's waited longer, so we're going to take these kiddos because they had waited 15 years after being created, and then 15 years at the National Embryo Donation Center,'" Rachel Ridgeway said.
The National Embryo Donation Center in Knoxville, Tennessee helped facilitate the birth of the twins, whose embryos were donated anonymously. Dr. John David Gordon, medical director at Southeastern Fertility, was the couple's doctor.
"These embryos that they adopted were frozen in '92. They're essentially 30 years old, so those embryos were for an IVF cycle that resulted in success, presumably back in the '90s," Gordon said. "The couple was willing to relinquish those extra embryos. They sat there in liquid nitrogen, just waiting for somebody to choose them."
After an initial consultation to see if the Ridgeways would be the right fit, the couple traveled back to Tennessee for the embryo transfer in March.
"I was a little bit nervous, you know, for anybody with a twin pregnancy, but they sailed through it and did so well," Gordon said.
With four other children, the family grew from six to eight.
"The Lord chose Lydia and Timothy to be the ones that he would implant and continue to sustain throughout my pregnancy, and now we hold them in our arms," Rachel Ridgeway said.
