- green vegetables (a lot of restaurants often use bean sprouts, buk choy, cabbage, or something similar)(optional)

Random Quotes:

- There’s an old stereotype about the difference between cats and dogs. Dogs are loving and fiercely loyal, they say, while cats are aloof and indifferent. Most cat people probably disagree – I certainly find it hard to believe, with my cat purring away in my lap, that she doesn’t care about me.

Overall, cat cognition research suggests cats do form emotional bonds with their humans. Cats seem to experience separation anxiety, are more responsive to their owners’ voices than to strangers’ and look for reassurance from their owners in scary situations.

But a new study, by researchers in Japan, complicates the picture of our relationship with cats. Adapting a method previously used to study dogs, the researchers found cats – unlike dogs – don’t avoid strangers who refuse to help their owners.

In the experiment, a cat watched as her owner tried to open a box to get at something inside. Two strangers sat on either side of the owner and the owner turned to one of them and asked for help. In “helper” trials, the stranger helped the owner to open the box. In “non-helper” trials, the stranger refused. The other stranger sat passively, doing nothing.

- Scott Morrison has declared that unemployed Australians who refuse to take jobs should have their Centrelink benefits withdrawn.

The prime minister is frustrated that 54,000 jobs are going begging in regional Australia - including at pubs, cafes and farms - despite the government's $6,000 relocation payment.

'Unemployed Australians are simply and regrettably not filling these jobs,' he told the AFR business summit in Sydney on Tuesday.

From April JobSeeker recipients will have to apply for 15 jobs a month, rising to 20 from July as the payment permanently increases by $50 a fortnight to $620.80.

'This is a fair exchange,' Mr Morrison said.

'If there is a job available, and you are able to do that job, then it is reasonable for taxpayers to expect that it will be taken up, rather than continue to receive benefits.'

Farmers have been struggling to hire workers due to a shortage of backpackers who have been unable to enter the country during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The prime minister warned that produce going unpicked on farms meant that food prices will rise for every Australian and described the waste as a 'tragedy.'

Another solution is to bring in temporary migrants on conditional visas to 'fill the gap' and boost the economy as a whole, thereby creating more jobs, he said.

'We have tried in the past to first get Australians into these jobs, but having tried to do that with any number of incentives,' Mr Morrison said.

'It has been incredibly difficult and we have to call it as it is. When Australians won't do the jobs, the jobs still need to be done.

'I can't have horticulturists ploughing their produce back into their fields because they can't get the workers.

'We must relook at the role that temporary visa holders play in meeting our economy's workforce requirements, where Australians do not fill these jobs,' he said.

Mr Morrison said he was open minded about reforming the immigration system and would look at conditional visas that could require workers to live in regional areas.

'We have got a real open mind on this,' he said.

'Conditionality is one of the great advantages of the temporary visa program. You can't put conditions on permanent visas.

'Those conditions can help us direct where people can go, which can ease pressures in metropolitan areas but hopefully ease pressures in regional areas.'

- Hi everyone,

This sunday I'll offer dinner vegetable gratin with broccoli and vegetable soup and fry brocoli with almonds very encouraging comments and your kindness over the past of days, since I first posted. It also shows that among you there are wonderful people who want to help others in one way or another.

I will always be glad to help people that I hear about through others.

I want to say that there are around you people who do not have Facebook and they cannot see offers that can be useful for them. Please be aware of your neighbours and if they are in need. Let's return to a united society, full of love and peace. You are all helping me improve my English by connecting with me and sending messages (my Aussie wife helps me understand some)

I have created a group for the of the neighbours party that I would like to do it on the 28th of November if you are interested in joining us and I am waiting for you to open up.

- Kamahl accepted he had benefitted from the publicity generated by his appearances on the program. “My basic philosophy as far as television is concerned was, if you’re an entertainer, if they don’t see you on television, they think you’re dead,” he said.

But, he said, he had little control over how he would be portrayed on the program, and that when he first appeared “I didn’t realise it was going to be a minefield, of sorts”.

“There were a number of instances where I felt humiliated, but I didn’t want to raise any objections or protest about it. I kept smiling and pretending all was OK.”

- VANCOUVER — Grizzly bears seem to favour gently sloping or flat trails like those commonly used by people, which can affect land management practices in wild areas, says an expert who has written a paper on their travel patterns.

One of the reasons people encounter bears while hiking could be because they prefer the same routes as humans, said Gordon Stenhouse, a researcher at the Alberta-based Foothills Research Institute.

The study recently published in the Journal of Experimental Biology could be used by resource-based industries in areas like forestry, oil and gas exploration, especially in Alberta, he said in an interview.

“Grizzly bears alter their movement patterns and habitat use in response to a wide range of environmental cues, including seasonal food resources, human recreation — such as hiking, camping, hunting — livestock grazing and road use,” the study says.

The study was led by Anthony Carnahan, a doctoral candidate at Washington State University.

Stenhouse said the study can help understand what areas bears use, how fast they move, how best to conserve those places and avoid conflict with the animals.

“Bears will make decisions on lots of factors and certainly, you know, the information shows that bears look for easy routes of travel, just like people do,” he said.
