Chaser, a sweet border collie, but just a dog picked at random from a litter for an experiment, and his owner — a psychology professor researching how dogs are very much like human toddlers, like two-year-olds, and actually far more like us humans than apes are, our supposed closest relatives.
We learn in the video below that, via brain scans, scientists now know that dogs do secrete the hormone oxytocin in their brains when they see their owner. Oxytocin is the “love” hormone, showing up also in the brain scans of happily married couples. This shows that dogs DO sincerely love us.
It is never only about them needing food and to be taken out for a walk. If dogs were only calculating creatures, “users,” and strictly into their own self-interest, then canines, even the littlest ones 😉 , certainly would not be willing to fight and even die to protect their owners from attack. In the same way, a kind human who truly loves certain persons or their own racial or ethnic group, if they see them in danger, yearns to protect them from harm.
….Chaser, a border collie as smart as a human toddler
Toward the end of WWII, an enormous number of German soldiers understood that the war was probably lost, because the Wunderwaffen which I promised and which were very real (new tanks, machine guns, jets, and V-2 rockets, plus other weapons on the drawing boards,such as the early atomic bomb) just could not be produced in large-enough quantities. Or there was simply no fuel for them.
Example: the Messerschmitt 262 fighter-bomber. Margi told me that to save fuel these jets were literally pulled by a team of oxen onto the runway. There was no long engine warm-up, which would have wasted our scarce fuel. The engine was turned on — and the 262s took off for battle.
Our Messerschmitt 262s were 200 mph faster than any Allied fighter, and could have cleared the skies of all enemy air forces, had we produced them in large quantities and with sufficient fuel. Actually, we lost the critical battles of Normandy/D-Day in June 1944 and then the decisive Battle of the Bulge in December 1944 in Belgium only because of Allied air superiority.
Our German soldiers ended up deliberately sacrificing themselves — heroically — in order to slow the advance of the Red Army, and in this way millions of German men, women and children escaped on foot westward to the American, British and French zones.
The Western allies, of course, were no angels, not at all — but in general the average US, British or French soldier or officer (forget General Eisenhower and the jewish “Ritchie Boys” in the US Army) was far less cruel and murderous than the Soviets.
There was no American Ilya Ehrenburg openly calling on GIs to rape and kill German women. This was a Soviet, Stalinist, and jewish thing. (After Stalin died in 1953, his successor, Nikita Krushchev — I knew his son Sergei, who taught at Brown University in my native Providence, Rhode island — closed the gulag and he ended the worst excesses.)

You can skip over this video. If you watch it, be warned that you will never forget it. Just remember that it was Soviet jews who incited the Red Army to do these things. But if you do watch it, then you will understand forever why so many German soldiers fought to the death. It was out of protective love for the women and girls of Germany.

December 13
Like yesterday, it will be good to focus on horizontal movement of energy today. By this, we mean that the most favored exchanges of energy will occur within the confines of your plane, between you and other people, animals, plants, and the like.
On other days, the energy flows powerfully up and down and through you in a vertical stream; those days call for different kinds of engagement.
Today will be in fact a wonderful day to immerse yourself in physical well-being. Perhaps your own, or possibly that of others. A good day to rescue a stray dog or help a ‘blind’ person across the street. It will also help to eat well, drink lots of water, stay warm and dry and get enough sleep.
You might also want to paint your toenails or get a haircut. Can you believe we are advising this? A little out of our range, but the point is that there is a broad scope of focus this day supports, ranging from saving life to beautifying some small aspect of your physical being.
Although it will probably bring you some interesting and useful experience to keep an eye out for anyone/thing who needs your help on the physical level, make sure to tend to your own needs today.
Be generous and gentle and kind to your body. Treat your body the way you know it deserves to be treated. Don’t push it or disregard its clear communications to you. Be respectful and honor it in your actions and thoughts.
Baby it a bit, especially if you have a tendency to ask it to tough things out for you much of the time.
We wish you a lovely day in form. May you see the great beauty in your own physical self, and in all the other beings and forces around you. It is truly astonishing when you can stand back and take it all in without entanglement, with simple clarity.
May this feed and nurture you today, just as you feed and nurture your own body.
Blessings.

Comme hier, il sera bon de se concentrer aujourd’hui sur le mouvement horizontal de l’énergie. Nous entendons par là que les échanges d’énergie les plus favorisés se produiront dans les limites de votre plan, entre vous et d’autres personnes, animaux, plantes, etc.
Les autres jours, l’énergie circule puissamment de haut en bas et à travers vous dans un flux vertical ; ces jours-là nécessitent différents types d’engagement.
Aujourd’hui sera en effet une merveilleuse journée pour s’immerger dans le bien-être physique. Peut-être le vôtre, ou peut-être celui des autres. Une bonne journée pour sauver un chien errant ou aider une personne « aveugle » à traverser la rue. Cela aidera également à bien manger, à boire beaucoup d’eau, à rester au chaud et au sec et à dormir suffisamment.
Vous voudrez peut-être aussi peindre vos ongles ou vous faire couper les cheveux. Pouvez-vous croire que nous vous conseillons cela ? Un peu hors de notre portée, mais le fait est que cette journée couvre un large éventail d’objectifs, allant de sauver des vies à l’embellissement d’un petit aspect de votre être physique.
Même si cela vous apportera probablement une expérience intéressante et utile pour garder un œil sur toute personne/chose qui a besoin de votre aide sur le plan physique, assurez-vous de répondre à vos propres besoins aujourd’hui.
Soyez généreux, doux et gentil avec votre corps. Traitez votre corps comme vous savez qu’il mérite d’être traité. Ne le poussez pas et ne négligez pas ses communications claires avec vous. Soyez respectueux et honorez-le dans vos actions et vos pensées.
Bébé, c’est un peu, surtout si vous avez tendance à lui demander de rendre les choses difficiles pour vous la plupart du temps.
Nous vous souhaitons une belle journée en forme. Puissiez-vous voir la grande beauté de votre propre moi physique et de tous les autres êtres et forces qui vous entourent. C’est vraiment étonnant de pouvoir prendre du recul et tout comprendre sans s’embrouiller, avec une simple clarté.
Que cela vous nourrisse et vous nourrisse aujourd’hui, tout comme vous nourrissez et nourrissez votre propre corps.
Bénédictions.

Wie gestern ist es auch heute gut, sich auf die horizontale Bewegung der Energie zu konzentrieren. Damit meinen wir, dass der günstigste Energieaustausch innerhalb der Grenzen Ihrer Ebene zwischen Ihnen und anderen Menschen, Tieren, Pflanzen und dergleichen stattfinden wird.
An anderen Tagen fließt die Energie kraftvoll auf und ab und durchströmt Sie in einem vertikalen Strom; Diese Tage erfordern unterschiedliche Arten des Engagements.
Heute wird tatsächlich ein wunderbarer Tag, um sich dem körperlichen Wohlbefinden zu widmen. Vielleicht Ihr eigenes oder möglicherweise das anderer. Ein guter Tag, um einen streunenden Hund zu retten oder einer „blinden“ Person über die Straße zu helfen. Es hilft auch, sich gut zu ernähren, viel Wasser zu trinken, warm und trocken zu bleiben und ausreichend zu schlafen.
Vielleicht möchten Sie auch Ihre Zehennägel lackieren oder sich die Haare schneiden lassen. Können Sie glauben, dass wir Ihnen dazu raten? Das liegt etwas außerhalb unseres Spektrums, aber der Punkt ist, dass an diesem Tag ein breites Spektrum an Schwerpunkten unterstützt wird, das von der Rettung von Leben bis hin zur Verschönerung eines kleinen Aspekts Ihres physischen Wesens reicht.
Obwohl es Ihnen wahrscheinlich einige interessante und nützliche Erfahrungen bringen wird, nach jemandem/Ding Ausschau zu halten, der Ihre Hilfe auf der körperlichen Ebene benötigt, sollten Sie sich heute um Ihre eigenen Bedürfnisse kümmern.
Seien Sie großzügig, sanft und freundlich zu Ihrem Körper. Behandeln Sie Ihren Körper so, wie Sie wissen, dass er es verdient. Drängen Sie nicht darauf und ignorieren Sie nicht die klaren Mitteilungen an Sie. Seien Sie respektvoll und respektieren Sie dies in Ihren Handlungen und Gedanken.
Seien Sie vorsichtig, vor allem, wenn Sie die meiste Zeit dazu neigen, von ihm schwierige Dinge zu verlangen.
Wir wünschen Ihnen einen schönen Tag in Form. Mögen Sie die große Schönheit in Ihrem eigenen physischen Selbst und in allen anderen Wesen und Kräften um Sie herum sehen. Es ist wirklich erstaunlich, wenn man einen Schritt zurücktreten und alles ohne Verstrickungen und mit schlichter Klarheit in sich aufnehmen kann.
Möge dies Sie heute nähren und nähren, so wie Sie Ihren eigenen Körper nähren und nähren.
Segen.

Come ieri, anche oggi sarà bene concentrarsi sul movimento orizzontale dell’energia. Con questo intendiamo che gli scambi di energia più favoriti avverranno entro i confini del vostro piano, tra voi e altre persone, animali, piante e simili.
Negli altri giorni, l’energia scorre potentemente su e giù e attraverso di te in un flusso verticale; quei giorni richiedono diversi tipi di impegno.
Oggi sarà infatti una splendida giornata per immergersi nel benessere fisico. Forse il tuo, o forse quello degli altri. Una buona giornata per salvare un cane randagio o aiutare una persona “cieca” dall’altra parte della strada. Aiuterà anche mangiare bene, bere molta acqua, stare al caldo e all’asciutto e dormire a sufficienza.
Potresti anche voler dipingere le unghie dei piedi o tagliarti i capelli. Riesci a credere che lo stiamo consigliando? Un po’ fuori dalla nostra portata, ma il punto è che c’è un ampio raggio d’azione che questa giornata supporta, che va dal salvare la vita all’abbellire qualche piccolo aspetto del tuo essere fisico.
Anche se probabilmente ti porterà qualche esperienza interessante e utile tenere d’occhio qualcuno/cosa che ha bisogno del tuo aiuto a livello fisico, assicurati di occuparti dei tuoi bisogni oggi.
Sii generoso, gentile e gentile con il tuo corpo. Tratta il tuo corpo nel modo in cui sai che merita di essere trattato. Non spingerlo o ignorare le sue chiare comunicazioni nei tuoi confronti. Sii rispettoso e onoralo nelle tue azioni e nei tuoi pensieri.
Fai un po’ attenzione, soprattutto se hai la tendenza a chiedergli di fare cose difficili per la maggior parte del tempo.
Vi auguriamo una bella giornata in forma. Possa tu vedere la grande bellezza nel tuo sé fisico e in tutti gli altri esseri e forze intorno a te. È davvero sorprendente quando puoi fare un passo indietro e assorbire tutto senza complicazioni, con semplice chiarezza.
Possa questo nutrirti e nutrirti oggi, proprio come nutri e nutri il tuo stesso corpo.
Benedizioni.

13 декабря
Как и вчера, сегодня будет хорошо сосредоточиться на горизонтальном движении энергии. Под этим мы подразумеваем, что наиболее благоприятный обмен энергией будет происходить в пределах вашего плана, между вами и другими людьми, животными, растениями и т.п.
В другие дни энергия мощно течет вверх и вниз и сквозь вас вертикальным потоком; в эти дни требуются разные виды взаимодействия.
Сегодня действительно будет прекрасный день, чтобы погрузиться в физическое благополучие. Возможно, свой собственный, а возможно, и чужой. Хороший день, чтобы спасти бездомную собаку или помочь «слепому» человеку перейти улицу. Это также поможет хорошо питаться, пить много воды, оставаться в тепле и сухости и высыпаться.
Возможно, вам также захочется накрасить ногти на ногах или подстричься. Можете ли вы поверить, что мы это советуем? Немного выходит за рамки нашего диапазона, но дело в том, что в этот день поддерживается широкий спектр задач: от спасения жизни до украшения какого-то небольшого аспекта вашего физического существа.
Хотя это, вероятно, принесет вам интересный и полезный опыт, позволяющий следить за кем-либо/предметом, нуждающимся в вашей помощи на физическом уровне, обязательно позаботьтесь о своих собственных потребностях сегодня.
Будьте щедры, нежны и добры к своему телу. Относитесь к своему телу так, как вы знаете, оно того заслуживает. Не давите на него и не игнорируйте его четкие сообщения. Будьте уважительны и уважайте это в своих действиях и мыслях.
Полегче, особенно если у вас есть склонность просить его большую часть времени усложнять вам жизнь.
Желаем вам приятного дня в форме. Пусть вы увидите великую красоту в своем физическом «я» и во всех других существах и силах вокруг вас. Это поистине удивительно, когда вы можете отойти в сторону и принять все это без запутывания, с простой ясностью.
Пусть это питает и лелеет вас сегодня, так же, как вы кормите и лелеете свое тело.
Благословения.

THIS IS WHY THE BORDER COLLIE IS THE MOST INTELLIGENT DOG BREED OF ALL
This is why the Border Collie is the most intelligent dog breed of all
Animal World
Rocco Auriemma

Border Collies are some of the hardest-working dog breeds you will find. They have a loving and lively side, but also a fierce and workaholic personality. But because they are such brilliant workers, it makes you wonder how smart they are .
According to Stanley Coren, the Border Collie is the smartest dog breed when it comes to obedience training. In fact, the smartest dog in the world was a Border Collie who knew over 1,000 nouns. The Border Collie’s ability to efficiently herd sheep also requires a special type of canine intelligence. Additionally, the breed is great at learning from past experiences, suggesting they have a high adaptive IQ .
No matter how you look at it, the Border Collie is an extremely intelligent dog . There are many reasons why they are second to none when it comes to dog intelligence . But what makes them really smart? Let’s examine why they are the “world’s smartest.”
The list of smartest dog breeds had accelerated the popularity of Border Collies . With these dogs at the top of the list, many potential owners have decided to give them a look. But how do we know that Border Collies are the smartest dogs?
This research has largely been attributed to canine psychologist Stanley Coren. He had the help of 199 obedience trial judges who helped with his search for him. And while his idea was initially met with a lot of criticism, it received a huge response.
Using Coren’s dog intelligence criteria, obedience judges have evaluated and classified several hundred dog breeds . With the judges’ data, Coren was able to finalize his list of the smartest dog breeds. His criteria for the tests were as follows:
The number of repetitions needed for a purebred dog to learn an unfamiliar command . As you may have guessed, the fewer repetitions needed, the higher the breed ranking.
The success rate of a dog breed obeying a known command on the first try. The higher the success rate, the more intelligent and obedient the dog breed will be.
Although hundreds of dogs were initially evaluated for Coren’s dog intelligence study, not all dog breeds reached the milestone. Rather, only those that received at least 100 ratings ended up on the final list, for a total of 138 breeds.
In fact, not all breeds participated in the trials. Only dog breeds recognized by the AKC or Kennel Canada joined the trials. In other words, no international mixed or rare dog could be evaluated by the judges.
Since Border Collies were recognized by both the AKC and CKC, they participated. And thanks to the Border Collie’s enormous popularity, they had no problem qualifying for the final list .
