If Nor-Cal is busy with the National guard that means Mexico is breaking down the wall with China at the border to start the war. Now that is food for Golden thought.

It’s almost that magical time of year that the Humane Society of America likens to a ��natural disaster.” Kitten season.

“The level of emotions for months on end is so draining,” said Ann Dunn, director of Oakland Animal Services, a city-run shelter in the San Francisco Bay Area. “And every year we just know it’s going to get harder.”

Across the United States, summer is the height of “kitten season,” typically defined as the warm-weather months between spring and fall during which a cat becomes most fertile. For over a decade, animal shelters across the country have noted kitten season starting earlier and lasting longer. Some experts say the effects of climate change, such as milder winters and an earlier start to spring, may be to blame for the uptick in feline birth rates.

This past February, Dunn’s shelter held a clinic for spaying and neutering outdoor cats. Although kitten season in Northern California doesn’t typically kick off until May, organizers found that over half of the female cats were already pregnant. “It’s terrifying,” Dunn said. “It just keeps getting earlier and going later.”

Cats reproduce when females begin estrus, more commonly known as “going into heat,” during which hormones and behavior changes signal she’s ready to mate. Cats can go into heat several times a year, with each cycle lasting up to two weeks. But births typically go up between the months of April and October. While it’s well established that lengthening daylight triggers a cat’s estrus, the effect of rising temperatures on kitten season isn’t yet understood.

One theory is that milder winters may mean cats have the resources to begin mating sooner. “No animal is going to breed unless they can survive,” said Christopher Lepczyk, an ecologist at Auburn University and prominent researcher of free-ranging cats. Outdoor cats’ food supply may also be increasing, as some prey, such as small rodents, may have population booms in warmer weather themselves. Kittens may also be more likely to survive as winters become less harsh. “I would argue that temperature really matters,” he said.

Others, like Peter J. Wolf, a senior strategist at the Best Friends Animal Society, think the increase comes down to visibility rather than anything biological. As the weather warms, Wolf says, people may be getting out more and noticing kittens earlier in the year than before. Then they bring them into shelters, resulting in rescue groups feeling like kitten season is starting earlier.

Regardless of the exact mechanism, having a large number of feral cats around means trouble for more than just animal shelters. Cats are apex predators that can wreak havoc on local biodiversity. Research shows that outdoor cats on islands have already caused or contributed to the extinction of an estimated 33 species. Wild cats pose an outsized threat to birds, which make up half their diet. In Hawaii, known as a bird extinction capital of the world, cats are the most devastating predators of wildlife. “We know that cats are an invasive, environmental threat,” said Lepczyk, who has published papers proposing management policies for outdoor cats.

Scientists, conservationists, and cat advocates all agree that unchecked outdoor cat populations are a problem, but they remain deeply divided on solutions. While some conservationists propose the targeted killing of cats, known as culling, cat populations have been observed to bounce back quickly, and a single female cat and her offspring can produce at least 100 descendants, if not thousands, in just seven years.

Although sterilization protocols such as “trap, neuter, and release” are favored by many cat rescue organizations, Lepczyk said it’s almost impossible to do it effectively, in part because of how freely the animals roam and how quickly they procreate. Without homes or sanctuaries after sterilization, returning cats outside means they may have a low quality of life, spread disease, and continue to harm wildlife. “No matter what technique you use, if you don’t stop the flow of new cats into the landscape, it’s not gonna matter,” said Lepczyk.

Rescue shelters, already under strain from resource and veterinary shortages, are scrambling to confront their new reality. While some release materials to help the community identify when outdoor kittens need intervention, others focus on recruiting for foster volunteer programs, which become essential caring for kittens who need around-the-clock care.

“As the population continues to explode, how do we address all these little lives that need our help?” Dunn said. “We’re giving this everything we have.”

That's an interesting headline for a UK Times article about California's IVF industry...

And even more interesting that it opens with a woman talking about how she wanted a blonde-haired child and a red-haired child, both preferably girls...

Harry also shares that their daughter is starting to resemble his mother, Princess Diana. “I think at the moment I see a lot of my wife in Archie, and I see a lot of my mom in Lili,” he says. “She’s very Spencer-like. She’s got the same blue eyes.” “Blue, blue, blue eyes,” Meghan adds. “Sort of like a golden reddish hair...” Harry continues.

Author: Sandy Young Topics: California, Community, health care, immigrants, Oaxaca, The Utopian

Imagine that you are fifteen years old and pregnant. You find yourself in a country where you share no common language. You have never seen a health care provider in your life. You know that you want your baby born healthy, and born a citizen of this new country. So you make your way to a clinic, where strangers ask you all kinds of questions you don’t understand about a “medical history” you do not have, make you take off all your clothes and touch you in very intimate ways. Now imagine being that health care provider.

Las Islas Family Medical Group in Oxnard, California, 40miles northwest of Los Angeles, is a county-based community clinic which sees some 1,200 patients per month. Our ten physicians and three Family Nurse Practitioners provide medical care to an agriculture-based community with a large monolingual Spanish-speaking population.

We have long prided ourselves on our ability to provide respectful quality medical care to our patients who are often lacking in educational skills and financial resources. Recently, however, the rapidly growing Mixteco population in our county has challenged our complacency.

The Mixteco are an indigenous people of southern Mexico, mostly the state of Oaxaca. Their existence as an organized community in that area predates Europeans by over 2,000 years. Since the conquest by Europeans in the sixteenth century, the Mixteco and other indigenous groups have been marginalized into the least fertile, hilly areas of Oaxaca. Subsistence farming was subdivided into smaller and smaller plots as the indigenous population grew. Massive deforestation of the area by the Mexican lumber industry in the first half of the 20th century turned huge areas of Oaxaca into non-farmable wasteland. At the same time, large agricultural interests in both Baja California and the United States began to court indigenous groups as a new and easily exploitable cheap labor source. It is estimated that some 300,000 inhabitants of Oaxaca, mostly indigenous peoples, have migrated over the last thirty years to other parts of Mexico and the U.S. The Mixteco make up a large part of these emigrants.

I had visited Oaxaca several times to enjoy the richness of the agricultural ruins, artisan handcrafts, and to attend the spectacular “Guelegetza,” an annual outdoor dance festival which features the music and dancing of all the region’s indigenous groups. From these travels, I had a rudimentary understanding of the area and its history. So I was pleased but surprised when I first began to identify Mixteco patients at the clinic. After all, it’s a 3,000-milejourney. Over the last year, the number of Mixteco-speaking patients has risen dramatically.

It is estimated that Ventura County now has at least 5,000and perhaps 20,000 people for whom Mixteco is their primary language. Many of these people are monolingual—they do not speak Spanish, let along English; most have never had medical care before in their lives. We see them primarily for prenatal care. (In California, all pregnant women may apply for Medicaid, whether they are legal residents or not.) It often takes them months before they are able to navigate the system, so we see them late in their pregnancies. Often, they do not know their month of conception. If there have been previous births, they are likely to have been at home, without a known birth weight.

The Mixteco as a rule are very small people, so our standard measurements are not really appropriate in accessing fundal height, expected weight gain, etc. Most are fieldworkers who continue to work into very late pregnancy to be able to afford their rent. Most have inadequate nutrition and housing. The majority cannot read or write in any language. And there are several dialects within the Mixteco language, so that not all of these people can even communicate with each other.

As the details of this picture started to emerge, it became clear that we needed to develop a whole new system to bring these patients into the health care network. After getting the green light from my clinic’s medical director, I started to publicize a community meeting, where we could begin to explain to people how to access community resources and the importance of regular and early prenatal care. Our clinic’s prenatal educator and my medical assistant helped to get the word out. I solicited donations (like ten cans of menudo), so at least we could give people a good hot meal.

Our first real breakthrough came when a registered nurse who works in a maternal-child health program called to say that not only would she like to be part of the organizing effort, but that she knew a community organizer who spoke fluent Mixteco and Spanish. Antonio works with a group of lawyers who are helping migrant workers attain legal rights, and who received a grant from the U.S. Census Bureau to help get Mixtecos counted for the 2000 census. He agreed to join forces with us and translate from Spanish to Mixteco for the meetings.

Our publicity for the meeting was mainly word of mouth within our own clinic. I was thrilled when twenty-five people jammed into our little billing office and Mixteco Community Organizing Project was born.

Two months later, the successes are great and the challenges greater. We’ve involved some sixty families in our meetings. By and large, our patients show up for their pre-natal care visits and are having healthy babies in the hospital. Most continue on with the clinic for well-child visits and family planning services. We’ve already had to change the name of our meetings from “Reunión Mixteca” to “Reunión Indigena” as families from other southern Mexican indigenous groups have joined us.

We now have a part-time employee at Las Islas who speaks fluent Spanish and Mixteco. She is proving to be a tremendous asset in communicating with our patients and demonstrating our commitment to serving their needs.

The barriers are still incredible. Transportation is a huge issue. Getting to the clinic usually involves walking or taking the bus.(“Lucky” patients who can get a ride maybe dropped off at 7 a.m. and picked up at4.) We are using a County-sponsored taxi voucher program to get patients in labor to the hospital, but this involves a lot of time spent in teaching patients how to use the vouchers.

It is difficult to stay in contact with our patients. Many don’t have phones, change addresses often, and leave the area for months out of the year when local employment is scarce.

We need to build our “necessities of life” program. The small amount of food and clothing we are able to provide is far from adequate. Fortunately, as each day goes by, some-one new comes to donate time or resources. Our hard-working clinic staff keeps finding new and better ways to communicate and teach.

Our short-term goals include enlisting some of our families in a Public Health program, which will train people to go into their own communities as public health promoters.

Those who are recipients of help now will be the leaders in providing help to the newly arrived in the future. We need to learn more about the Mixteco culture, language and beliefs to be able to provide respectful quality medical care. We need to form links with other immigrant communities in California, Oregon and Washington to ensure continuity of care to the immigrant population.

The work is enormous. But the potential benefits to the entire community—English-, Spanish- and Mixteco-speaking—are enormous also. Quality health care, living wages, decent work and living conditions, mutual respect and celebration of diversity are the bases of a strong and stable community. It’s my hope that we are taking the first baby-steps towards those ends.

S1E11: Eve

Case: In... wait it'll come to me, I don't have to look it up... Connecticut? I wanna say Connecticut, a little girl finds her dad dead on a swing set after having been exsanguinated. This alone would be baffling, but across the country in Somewhere, California, at the Exact Same Time, another little girl finds HER dad dead on a swing set after having been exsanguinated. Whoa! But the kicker? The two of them are identical, but not at all related. That's a lot to deal all on its own, but add in a kidnapping by a disgraced geneticist who might have been doing some uh, slightly extremely unethical things during her work at an in vitro fertilization clinic, and our favorite crime "solving" duo have their hands practically overflowing. Mulder suspects it's the work of extraterrestrials, up until he doesn't; Scully does not suspect it's the work of extraterrestrials, and is very smug when it's not; cloning comes up for the first, but certainly not last time in the X-Files; and I have weird nostalgia throughout the whole thing because this is one of the episodes I used to watch on repeat a lot as a kid.

Does someone die in the cold open: Like in the Pilot, he was technically already dead.

Does Mulder present a slideshow: Yes! It's of dead cows. This is not the only time he will present a slideshow that's full of dead cows.

Does the evidence survive the investigation: Actually? I think it does. Wild.

Whodunit: Our not-so-sweet little clones.

Convictions: There was even a fucking conviction this episode, guys, or at the very least there were charges and they put the girls behind bars. They are almost like real Federal agents, I'm so proud. (Like, they're gonna break out of the institution obviously, but for one shining moment it was almost as if justice had been served.)

Did they solve it: Yes!

[how do i determine if a case is solved? check the scale here: x]

THIS EPISODE IS SPONSORED BY: Just ordering "a diet soda" and not specifying a brand. Are you trying to avoid product placement for a company that isn't paying you any money for advertising, but you need someone to drink a beverage for plot reasons, bc how else are you gonna show that they've been poisoned? Try having your characters just order a diet soda and not specify a brand! We promise, no one will notice.

Rise in parents engaging in sex-selection during IVF has the fertility biz booming

By Cassy Fiano-Chesser | May 14, 2024 

The fertility industry has opened new doors for countless would-be parents across the globe, and it’s not just doors allowing them to have children. Thanks to in-vitro fertilization (IVF), people can create their children and then have them tested to ensure they meet all the right specifications. While this brave new world sounds like something out of a science fiction novel, it’s all too real – and using IVF to select the kind of child you want is becoming more and more common.

In 2021, socialite and reality television alum Paris Hilton announced her plans to use IVF to create her family, and choosing the sex of her babies was one of the reasons. “Well, we have been doing the IVF. So I can pick twins if I like. Kim [Kardashian] is actually the one who told me about that, I didn’t even know anything about it. And I’m happy she told me that advice, and introduced me to her doctor, so yeah. We have them all ready to go,” she said, continuing, “I think it’s just something most women should do, just to have. And then you can pick if you want boys or girls — just because I really want to have twins that are a boy and a girl. The only way to 100% get that is by making it happen that way.”

Hilton is hardly alone. The number of people foregoing sex in favor of IVF in order to have children is growing — as is sex selection. Though, according to the Daily Mail, sex selection is illegal in most of the globe, it isn’t in the United States, and it’s become trendy.

“The market is the size of the human race,” Jeffrey Steinberg, founder of the Fertility Institutes in Los Angeles, said in an interview with Slate. He claimed 85% of his clients are drawn in by the idea of choosing their baby’s sex.

Sex selection has long been practiced, albeit not using IVF; instead, parents sometimes found out the sex of their baby during an ultrasound, and if it was the “wrong” sex, they sought an abortion. Though this has typically been a way to bolster a cultural preference for boys, Slate pointed out that in the United States, it’s become the opposite: the market is skewed toward girls.

Sharon Moayeri, the founder of OC Fertility in Newport Beach, California, does not market the ability to choose the baby’s sex as aggressively as Steinberg does, and therefore, said only around 15% of her clients arrive without fertility issues. Another doctor at the medical center at the University of California San Francisco told Slate that “single mothers by choice, same-sex couples, and families with a history of autism” were typically more likely to request girls. A study also found that white parents having their first child chose female embryos 70% of the time.

"When I think about having a child that’s a boy, it’s almost a repulsion, like, Oh my God, no,” one woman said.

Another argued, “Boy children tend to be less caring towards their parents. It doesn’t really matter if it’s socialized or biological. It’s probably socialized, but I can’t change all of society.”

And because laws in other countries ban sex selection, thousands of people fly to the United States each year just to take advantage of this country’s lax fertility regulations. And it means big business for the fertility industry.

“It’s a moneymaking industry,” Laura Kerwin, a Harvard-trained psychologist, told Slate. “People need to realize that [clinics] have a fiduciary duty to their shareholders to make money. They’re trying to sell you on an option.”

There is little to no oversight within the fertility industry, meaning there is little to no information on what the current state of the industry is. “We do not even know how many frozen embryos we have in this country,” Margaret Marsh, a professor at Rutgers University, told the Atlantic, explaining that the last count — 400,000 — was 20 years ago. “[Today] we have no idea.”

The Atlantic also noted that 75% of fertility clinics advertise sex-selection as an offered service, allowing people to undergo IVF simply because they want to choose if they have a boy or a girl. Steinberg told the Atlantic this “service” makes the fertility industry approximately $90 million each year.

Steinberg also scoffed at the notion of increased regulations, saying it is “putting the handcuffs on scientists.” Then, using pro-abortion terminology, he added, “If there’s anything society should have learned, it’s ‘Keep their hands off of people’s reproductive choices’.”

IVF, though often described as a way to help heartbroken infertile couples to create families, has created a monster in which children are no longer treated as human beings, but as products to be designed, engineered, and then sold to the highest bidder upon demand. And as these embryonic children are products, they can be screened, destroyed, traded, and even turned into jewelry.

Any attempts to cut back on this commodification is swiftly attacked as cruelty towards the infertile — but what about the children being created? What will it take for the line to be drawn and a stop be placed on this reproductive free-for-all?

I checked on that statement about embryos turned into jewelry and found articles mostly dating back to 2018. But it did happen.

"When I think about having a child that’s a boy, it’s almost a repulsion, like, Oh my God, no,” one woman said. While I get that I'm still creeped out about this being a big international business.

What all steps Cambodia needs to take to legalize gay and single parent surrogacy?

The legalization of gay and single parent surrogacy in Cambodia could be a multifaceted issue that requires a cautious and comprehensive approach. As of now Cambodia's position on surrogacy has been to some degree unclear, with the government banning all types of surrogacy in 2016. In the following parts of this article, we will investigates the steps Cambodia may take to legalize and control surrogacy for gay and single parents, drawing on real-time cases from other nations that have effectively explored this complex issue.

1. Comprehensive legal System

The primary and most pivotal step is the improvement of a comprehensive legal system that particularly addresses surrogacy. Moreover, this system should incorporate:

Clear Definition of Surrogacy: Building up a legitimate definition of same sex surrogacy in Cambodia that incorporates both gestational and conventional types.

Rights and Duties: Clearly laying out the rights and obligations of all parties included, including the surrogate, intended parents, and the child.

Legal Parenthood: Giving arrangements for the exchange of legitimate parenthood from the surrogate to the intended parents

Real-Time Illustration: The United Kingdom’s Surrogacy Act and the consequent Parental Orders are great cases of a legal system that, in spite of requiring updates, has given a ground for surrogacy agreements and the exchange of parenthood.

2. Inclusivity in laws

Laws should expressly incorporate arrangements for gay and single parents, guaranteeing that they are not segregated against within the procedure. This includes:

Non-Discrimination Clauses: Laws must expressly state that surrogacy is available to all people in any case of their marital status or sexual preferences.

Acknowledgment of Differing Family Structures: Recognizing and regarding the differing qualities of cutting edge family structures in legal terms.

Real-Time Illustration: The United States offers a shifted landscape in terms of surrogacy laws, with a few states like California having comprehensive laws that don't discriminate based on marital status or sexual introduction.

3. Regulating Surrogacy agencies and Clinics

To guarantee ethical practices, there should be strict control and accreditation of surrogacy agency in Cambodia and fertility clinics.

Ethical Measures: Agencies and clinics must follow ethical guidelines, including straightforward cost structures and reasonable treatment of surrogates during same sex surrogacy in Cambodia.

Health and Security Controls: Guaranteeing the health and safety of the surrogate through customary medical checks and mental support via surrogacy agency in Cambodia.

Real-Time Case: In Canada, surrogacy is controlled with a focus on the health and well-being of the surrogate, including prohibiting commercial surrogacy to avoid misuse.

4. Universal Collaboration and Benchmarks

Given the Global nature of surrogacy, Cambodia may advantage from worldwide collaboration and adherence to global benchmarks. This includes:

Following to International Rules: Taking after rules set by global bodies just like the World Health Organization (WHO) on surrogacy for gay couples in Cambodia.

Proper agreements: Shaping understandings with other nations to guarantee the smooth process of citizenship and travel for children born through surrogacy.

Real-Time Illustration: Thailand, which changed its surrogacy laws in 2015, worked towards adjusting its directions with International human rights benchmarks.

5. Public Awareness and Education

Raising awareness and giving education about gay surrogacy in Cambodia is fundamental to develop understanding and acknowledgment, especially for gay and single parent surrogacy. This incorporates:

Instructive Campaigns: Advising the common people about what surrogacy involves and dispersing myths and misguided judgments.

Support for intended parents and Surrogates: Giving resources and support for those considering surrogacy.

Real-Time Illustration: In Australia, agencies play a noteworthy role in educating the public while offering support to intended parents and surrogates.

6. Ensuring the Rights of the Child

Any legal system must prioritize the rights and best interests of the child while thinking about surrogacy for gay couples in Cambodia. This incorporates:

Right to information: Guaranteeing the child’s right to know their origin.

Safety Against Trafficking and Abuse: Executing rigid measures to anticipate child trafficking and abuse.

Real-Time Case: The Hague convention on protection of Children and Co-operation in respect of inter country adoption offers guidelines that can be adjusted for international surrogacy agreements.

7. Tending to the Ethical and Social Suggestions

The government must pay attention to the ethical and social suggestions of surrogacy, guaranteeing that policies reflect societal values and moral contemplations. This includes:

Meeting with Ethicists and Social Scientists: Engaging with specialists to understand the broader affect of surrogacy on society.

Social Affectability: Being touchy to the social setting of Cambodia while defining surrogacy laws.

8. Persistent review and adaptation of Laws

Surrogacy laws ought to not be static but must evolve with changing social states of mind and medical headways. This requires:

Regular Audit of laws: Laws ought to be frequently checked on and updated to reflect current demands and technological headways.

Getting the feedback:  Setting up a mechanism to get feedback from all partners, including intended parents, surrogates, and medical experts.

Conclusion

The legalization of gay and single parent surrogacy in Cambodia requires a cautious, comprehensive, and well-regulated approach. Also, by learning from the experiences of other nations and focusing on making a comprehensive legal system that secures the rights of all parties included, particularly the child, Cambodia can take noteworthy steps toward this objective. 

Also, such laws would not only give clarity and security for those included in surrogacy programs but also reflect a dynamic and comprehensive position in recognizing the differing types of present day families.

Honoring Motherhood: The Meaning of Childbirth for Tongan Women

The article was a study on the meaning of childbirth for Tongan women. In other words, it was focused on what motherhood means to them and what honor it holds to become one. We are first introduced to Tonga's background history, including its fertility and maternal mortality rates census, and where the Tongan population is throughout the United States and other Pacific island communities. Next mentioned in the article are the methods and findings of the study including the specifics. Then, we are given more information about the participants’ experiences with pregnancy and childbirth tied to their cultural aspects. It is concluded with implications for clinical practice to help nurses provide culturally sensitive healthcare.

The study was an ethnographic and qualitative descriptive study where they interviewed the participants. Those who fell under the criteria for this research study had to be a Tongan woman, who had given birth to a healthy-term baby the previous year. The authors and researchers gathered 38 Tongan women, 18 from the islands of Tonga and 20 from the United States (California and Utah). They were able to gain these participants using convenience and snowball sampling. The interview process used an interview guide with open-ended questions. There were no language barriers as a translator was present for those who couldn’t speak English or Tongan. These interviews were then transcribed and peer-reviewed.

There was no specific research question in this study because the focus was to provide a unique description of the meaning of childbirth to Tongan women. But, because this study was concentrated on the Tongan culture, one of the most important questions asked in their interviews was “Were there any cultural practices that were important to you during your pregnancy?”. With this question, they could conclude how important cultural practices played a significant role throughout the participants’ pregnancy. These cultural practices included the core values of Tonga which are family, respect, loyalty, discipline, and obedience to parents, elders, or authority. The researchers had different themes to focus on the participants’ birth experiences in a culturally diverse way. For example, their overarching theme was honoring motherhood, and their general findings included the strength some had to have an unmedicated vaginal birth, adherence to cultural practices with childbearing, and the participants’ feelings of “spiritual dimensions”.
