Researches in the United Kingdom have found a purr-fect way for you to communicate with your cat.A recent study published in the online journal Scientific Reports found that cats will appear friendlier and more approachable to humans who use slow-blinking, eye-narrowing facial expressions, which psychologists at the Universities of Portsmouth and Sussex referred to as a "cat smile."In their first experiment, 21 cats interacted with their owners. The psychologists' team found that the cats would slow-blink if their owners slow-blinked at them first, compared to a neutral expression.In its second experiment, 24 cats and a member of the research team interacted. The study found that if the experimenter slow-blinked at them first, they were more likely to approach their outstretched hand than if they had given the cat a neutral expression."Collectively, our results suggest that slow blink sequences may function as a form of positive emotional communication between cats and humans," the researchers said. 1022

Racially charged protests across the world recently have sparked curiosity about racism and black history. It's created a demand some book stores weren't necessarily prepared for."On June 1 was the day that our internet sales just blew up," Debra Johnson with Matter Design Studio and Shop said. "Every black author title we had was sold out in about two hours."Debra Johnson and Rick Griffith are partners in running Matter Design Studio in Denver, Colorado."Matter was founded in 1999," Griffith said.In 2017, they decided to start selling books, but not just any books fill their store."Every book on these shelves has in some way changed our lives, or changed the lives of our children, or participated in our lives," Griffith said.On this day, they had just received boxes of books, mostly for online orders."Almost immediately when George Floyd was murdered, we had increased demand in books on anti-racist action," Griffith said. "Then it started rolling into demand on other topics as well that were related."The books were on anti-racism, racism, black history, and white rage, among other topics."It's like science. Learning about blackness is like science. You might understand some general principles, and you might even experience some things like gravity, but how many people can explain gravity? They can experience it, but they can't explain it. And race kind of works like that," he explained.As protests took place across the world, many were urged and inspired to educate themselves on the issues that led to the unrest. Stories about America's history of racism were shared across social media, as well as lists of books on Black history, books by Black authors, and where to find Black-owned bookstores."This is a similar phenomenon to I think what happened in the 1960s and 70's that I wrote about, and also in the early 1990's which is when there are intense periods of protest," Joshua Clark Davis, an Assistant Professor of History at the University of Baltimore said. "That fuels a drive by a lot of people, especially a lot of white people, who say I need to learn more about racism. I need to learn more about black culture."Davis is a historian. He wrote a book on the rise and fall of activist entrepreneurs, where he discusses the role Black-owned bookstores play, not just in Black history, but in American history."Going all the way back to the very first African American bookstore, which was in New York in the 1850's I believe, owned by a man named David Ruggles. He was an abolitionist," he said. "Black bookstores have always had a very tight connection with social movements, with activist movements. I think that's what we're seeing now.""We are activists by nature," Griffith said.From "vote" posters to sharing personal experiences through social media, Griffith and Johnson have always been involved."We've always been very tied into activism and our community," Johnson said.While fulfilling online orders, which helped them get by while shops were closed due to the coronavirus, the events that unfolded in May and June hit home for both of them."When George Floyd was murdered, not only did my black family have a great deal of trauma, we had to figure out how to heal. How they could heal," Johnson said."In some ways, it feels very normal for us to be in this struggle. In a very real way with a lot more people. And I love that there are a lot more people to work with, so many human beings who want the same thing. I think it's possible we can make some change," Griffith said. 3535

RAMONA, Calif. (KGTV) - A Ramona family is grieving the loss of a 14-year-old boy, killed Tuesday night while riding a skateboard on a residential street."He was really happy and so charismatic. He loved his family, loved to skateboard," said Amber Krapf, Logan Krapf's mother.Logan was on his skateboard, just before 7:30 p.m that night in a neighborhood in the San Diego Country Estates. He was on Barona Mesa Road near a streetlight with two friends, one on a skateboard, another on a bike.His friends say they were wearing helmets in the streets, and going from right to left in the road, headed toward a golf course, when the headlights on a pickup appeared around a curve.Two of the boys managed to get to the roadside, but Logan did not, as the truck struck him. His mother Amber got the call and raced to the scene."Everyone around me was crying. I was number and just in shock that this could happen," said Amber.By the time she arrived, her son had passed."I kissed him. Told him that I loved him. Told him goodbye, that it was okay," said a tearful Amber.CHP investigators say the driver, a 20-year-old man, did stop and performed CPR. Drugs and alcohol are not believed to be a factor, but Amber believes speed was. The speed limit is 25."An officer said he admitted on scene that he was going at least 45 ... My son’s friends say ... it was closer to 55," said Amber.Days later, flowers and candles stand where a young life was cut short, weeks before his birthday and first-ever football practice at Ramona High."He loved football. He was supposed to be the starting nose guard for football season, and so excited to play his first season," said Amber.Instead, a grieving family must now plan a funeral."It hurts to take every breath. I don’t know how I’m going to do this for a lifetime," said Amber.Amber says she hopes no other families will have to feel the pain she's feeling."The speed in a known problem. Need speed bumps, a stop sign, something. There are so many kids around there," said Amber.A CHP spokesperson says they are looking into the speed of the truck, but the investigation is ongoing and no arrest has been made.A GoFundMe campaign has been set up the help the family with expenses. 2226

RANCHO SANTA FE (KGTV): As the costs to grow avocado and citrus keep rising, farmers in San Diego are trying a new crop to put a jolt in their business: coffee."We’re excited about the possibilities," says Chuck Badger, who runs R.E. Badger and Sons. He's planted about 5,000 coffee plants across several farms that his business manages."The plants are very happy. They’ve got a lot of cherries on them. So we’re super excited for this summer to pick it."Badger says he heard about the possibilities of coffee from growers in Ventura County. San Diego's coastal climate and soil are similar to other coffee producing regions.The timing couldn't be better. In addition to dealing with the lingering drought, many farmers are getting frustrated with the rising production costs of avocado and citrus trees. They're looking for ways to diversify their crops.Badger says the upfront costs of coffee are a little higher, but the profit margins can be much better. He told 10News that coffee needs about 900 trees planted per acre, while citrus uses only 150.But, if the coffee grades out as a "premium" brand, farmers could net as much as ,000 per acre. Citrus and avocado trees bring in anywhere from ,000 to ,000 an acre, depending on the yield and other market factors.Leaders with the San Diego County Farm Bureau are excited about the potential as well, but caution that coffee is still in an "experimental" phase in the area."Nobody's all in at this point," says Executive Director Eric Larson. He points out that San Diego has around 50,000 acres of total farmland. Larson guesses that coffee makes up less than 20 total acres right now."Folks are seeing if it’s going to work here before they make a future decision to be all in," says LarsonHe says it could be a good crop to plant in conjunction with other established crops, doubling up acreage to increase profits.Badger thinks San Diego could become coffee country, in the same way Napa is known for wine."We want to model it after the whole wine growing template, where people are asking for certain varietals, certain regions, organic," he says. "So those coffee snobs become like those wine snobs and will pay for premium coffee."Badger won't be able to harvest any of his beans until next summer. He's looking forward to seeing how it all plays out."If you look at what the world wants and what people are spending money on, I think it will be a good thing." 2447

Puerto Rico’s elections commission says it has discovered more than 100 briefcases containing uncounted ballots a week after the U.S. territory held its general election, drawing criticism and scorn from voters who now question the validity of the outcomes of certain races. Francisco Rosado, the commission’s new president, said Tuesday that the briefcases were found in a secured vault and blamed the situation on what he said was an underfunded and understaffed administrative board responsible for counting a record number of absentee and early votes. 563
