Happy Spring, all ye cat-loving business PURRSons! This is the
time of year for Jaspur to increase his efforts in slipping out
the front door.  "Kitty No!"

Welcome to all of our new subscribers.  We hope that in the
variety of writings found in each issue, you will not only find
something of particular interest to you, but will find something
you just *have to* show a friend.  Thanks for the word-of-
mouth/email that CATLINES is here, just for you!

Please remember the free ad board for placement of your ads--read
below.  Here's a major hint for advertising in CATLINES.  One's
ad is much more likely to place in CATLINES if it is composed so
as to keep with our catly theme.  Thanks.

There is major trouble a-brewing on the Internet for ezine
publishers.  Please help us stop Habeas from railroading our
endeavors.  Here is a letter from the company who has regularly
sent us new subscribers:

Dear Editors,

I have received this e-mail from Mike Hills, owner of
10Dollars20ads.com.  As an e-zine publisher and co-op operator I
found all of this to be very disturbing.

It appears that there is yet another company who is working to
shut down all e-zines, on-line newsletters, e-mail marketing and
any other form of legitimate e-marketing on the internet. It
appears to me, and is my opinion, that Habeas is making a
concerted effort to put us out of business and eliminate our
publications.

It is my opinion that this action being taken by Habeas and other
organizations like Spam-Cop and Spews are reminiscent of the the
early days of the internet when the intellectual snobs thought
the internet was ONLY for their use and the rest of us should
just get off the internet.

Time has proven them wrong.  The internet is for every human who
wishes to participate.  The internet is fast becoming a shopping
mecca for the entire world and is for businesses large and small.
When companies like Amazon can go from nothing to being one of
the largest distributor of goods on the internet, it shows us
that all who wish to work honestly on the internet can have a
future as entrepreneurs.  Additionally, the internet is the only
true vestige left where the free flow of information remains
untarnished.  Habeas, in my opinion, is attempting to control
this and trample our 1st Amendment rights to freedom of speech
and freedom of the press. We Americans do not take our rights
lightly and will do whatever it takes to defend those rights.

Please read the following e-mail from Mike Hill.  I would suggest
that all who agree and feel that their businesses are at risk and
rights are being trampled join and write a small article to all
your subscribers to inform them of what is happening.  Everyone's
rights are being trampled, including our subscribers and
customers.

Hi

Mike Hills here from
http://www.10dollars20ads.com

By Now you should have heard about the threat to eZines and e-
mail marketing from a company called Habeas.

If not you can find details from the links in the piece below.

A group of internet marketers currently headed by the owner of
http://www.MegaLists.net

Michael Yost, is being formed.

The aim of this group is to fight the possible threat that Habeas
poses.

The site is called " the Online Marketing Professionals United
Against Censorship " and can be found at
http://nohabeas.megalists.net/about.html

Another very useful source of information is
http://i-cop.org/cgi-bin/mem/jl.pl?1060 /habeas/

I have Spoken to Michael over the past 10 days and I feel that
the organization he is setting up, will be our best chance of
fighting this proposed threat to all our businesses.

He has also secured the backing of jl Scott of i-Cop.org.

If possible I would like you to have a look at Michaels Site
http://nohabeas.megalists.net/index.html

Join if the views are the same as your own.

Make a donation if you can and please notify the eZines in your
Co-op about this site.

Thanking you in Advance

Mike Hills

Go get 'em Jaspur!

2: Kitten Kabootle's Kubbyhole (catly writings)

Hello Cat Lovers!

Hopefully, this dreadful winter is almost past us, and we can
look forward to warmer weather with the approach of Spring.

With the arrival of Spring, comes Easter and a warning - the
ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center, in partnership with the Cat
Fanciers' Association, is leading a nationwide campaign to warn
cat owners about the dangers of Easter lilies and certain other
types of lilies.

Our site contains photos of lilies that can be deadly to your
cat!

For the safety and health of your cat, please read:

Subject: FW: Animal Rescue Site

It only takes a second, and hopefully it helps!

Please Help....

Please tell ten friends to tell ten today!

The Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to
click on it daily to meet their quota of getting free food
donated every day to abused and neglected animals.

It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on
"feed an animal in need" for free.

This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors /
advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate food to
abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising.

Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know.

Now that spring is finally arriving in Canada, Simon Teakettle
will soon return to his usual routine of going outside in the
back yard for an hour or two each afternoon.

The yard is fenced, and although he can easily climb the chain
link, he respects that boundary and doesn't leave, enjoying
instead the variety of terrain I've managed to cram into a small
suburban yard, including a rock garden, large maple tree housing
two nests of squirrels, a bird bath and several feeders, and
clumps of perennials.

His favorite spot is amongst the tall leaves of the daylilies and
iris in one planting bed, where he can hide to watch birds at the
dining room feeder.

I discovered this several years ago when I went out to see how he
was doing and he was nowhere in sight.

I've trained Simon to "answer" when I call him, and he's
developed a delightful method of letting me know that he
acknowledges my call but isn't ready to come in. He comes over to
the door, stopping a few feet away, then just sit there, looking
at me, as if to ask if he can stay out longer. I usually
acquiesce.

But one day I called and he didn't appear. Worried, I called
again. Then I heard the softest little chirp coming from the
daylilies. It's as if he was urging me not to reveal his hiding
place, and since he's a faithful bird-watcher who never hunts his
feathered friends, I backed away.

It's now our own special secret.

All I Need to Know About Birthdays I Learned From My Cat!

1.  Be finicky - they'll try harder to please you.
2.  Give attitude - get attention.
3.  If you don't like your presents, SULK.
4.  If you get bored at your party - just curl up for a nap.
5.  Don't stress out over your first grey whisker
6.  Act completely unimpressed by the presents you receive.
7. Remember, this is your day, so if anyone bugs you, you're
allowed to hiss and spit.
8.  Take the day off and lie in the sun.
9.  Stay out on the prowl all night long.
10. Demand only the most expensive fresh fish for dinner.
11. It's a good day to shed your inhibitions.
12. Act catty - toy with your presents before you tear them open.
13. Don't overdo it with the catnip or you'll regret it in the
morning.
14. If you aren't getting enough attention, sharpen your claws on
somebody's leg.
15. Don't let anything or anyone PUT YOU OUT!
16. And remember...curiosity might kill you, but birthdays won't!

(Editor's note:  Happy Earth Day)

What is Earthcode?

E A R T H C O D E

Re-arrange the letters of Earth - it spells Heart. Earth is the
physical dimension where we learn to master the art of heart-
centeredness - love, compassion, kindness, courage, peacefulness
- in spite of the difficulties and challenges of living here.

Indeed, each of us have had our share of struggles in various
forms and situations throughout our lives.

The good news is, we don't have to struggle anymore. Life can and
does become easier and far more enjoyable than any of us ever
thought possible. But to achieve this requires that each of us
take the first steps toward changing the focus of our attention
and changing how we interpret our interactions with others and
how we choose to respond to the events and situations of our
lives.

...

Only when the heart is coherent, as in feelings of love and
connectedness, can the energy come through in force.

4: biz-catskills

Charles Schultz Philosophy.......

You don't actually have to take the quiz. Just read the email
straight through, and you'll get the point (an awesome one) that
it is trying to make!

Read this quiz:

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America contest.
4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor
and actress
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.

How did you do?

The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.

These are no second-rate achievers.

They are the best in their fields.

But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are
forgotten.

Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Here's another list of ??s.. See how you do on this one:

1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult
time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and
special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
6. Name half a dozen heroes whose stories have inspired you.

Easier?

The lesson:

The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones
with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards.

They are the ones that care.

Pass this on to those people who have made a difference in your
life.

Greetings,

Many years ago, someone told me that the key to success is not
doing something big or spectacular, but doing the little things
extraordinarily well.

When we think of Olympic athletes, it's tempting to pretend that
they are somehow "different."  We tell ourselves they were born
with incredible strength or unusual talent, or had training that
we could never get for ourselves.  We look at Michael Jordon in
sports, or we compare ourselves to Barbra Streisand as an
entertainer, and say, "I could never do that."

While there is truth in acknowledging their incredible talent,
there is also a lie in pretending that because we don't have
their genetic gifts, we are somehow excused from the necessity of
doing our best.

That is simply not true!

The vast majority of highly successful people, in any area of
life, are simply those who worked a bit harder, stayed a bit
longer, and did a bit more.

The highest paid people in any industry earn many times more than
the average income.  Is that because they are 100 times smarter?
Are they 50 times more ambitious?  Do they work 20 times harder
or do they have more hours in a day? Of course not!

The highest paid, most successful people do the little things
extremely well.  They remember the details, acknowledge their
friends, and they keep their promises.  They return phone calls
on time.  They remember to say "Please" and "Thank You!," and
they smile.  They get to work just a bit earlier, make one or
two more calls or stay just a bit later at the end of the day.

The simple truth is this:  They go the extra mile, and it makes a
difference.

They take care of the "little things", and the difference is
reflected in their paychecks!

What opportunities do you have to improve your performance by
just 1 percent this week?  It's called the "1 Percent Solution",
And over time, it makes all the difference!

Subject: Daily Lift #235 - Who Is An Honorable Person?

A major underlying issue in many quarrels is that people feel
that someone else didn't treat them with the proper respect. The
specific details of the quarrel are trivial compared to the
fundamental need to be treated with respect.

"Who is an honorable person?" ask the Sages (Pirkei Avos 4:1).
"The one who shows honor and respect to others." That is, your
honor and respect does not depend on how others treat you.
Rather, the more honor and respect that you express to others,
the more honorable you yourself are. We all want to be treated
with basic respect. And as we internalize the essential message
of the Sages, we will decrease our concern about how others
treat us and we will increase our concern about how we treat
others.

(from Rabbi Zelig Pliskin's new book: Harmony with Others, p.34,
www.artscroll.com)

Hi CWA member:

I just learned about CWA and I am joining. I am a writer with a
just published novel called Catland (learn more about me at
www.davidgarrettizzo.com
and see the great cover).

For all the cats who think they are lions and all the cat lovers
who believe their cats are mystical, magical, and heroic:

Catland is a fable for all ages about mystic and mythic heroic
cats the size of lions in a time before time when these cats were
the gifted species and humans were newcomers. Catland is a
parable of goodness adapted from the sweetest essence of mystical
philosophy. Catland is about friendship and loyalty, love and
devotion, heroism and sacrifice, and lessons for Huxley, Maximus
and Princess when they are kittens early in the story as taught
by the great sage Gerald, who is the ancient friend of the
mystical eagle and leader of Eagleland, Wystan the Wise. When the
kittens become adults and Catland's leaders, they face the threat
of the evil human Reltih who wishes to rule the world. The
lessons are about life and educate the young and old. Tears will
flow when the orphan, Maximus, becomes Catland's greatest warrior
and defends his adopted home from the enemy. And while he does he
anguishes that he has lost Princess to his best friend Huxley, a
love he never reveals but that he gives to their son Matthias.
