The Diplomacy Cable<\/strong><\/p>\n

With the invention of the telegraph cables in the 19th<\/sup> century, international consulates and embassies began sending shorter encrypted telegrams, using Morse Code.

The Australian government has announced significant changes to its citizenship laws, and Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull declared those seeking citizenship must show \u201cAustralian values.\u201d ABC<\/a> reports those seeking citizenship will be given a tougher citizenship test that will not only assess their commitment to Australia but also their attitudes toward religious freedom and gender equality.

Canadian River Vanishes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Due to a receding glacier, the Slims River in Canada vanished within four days. The Guardian<\/a> reports this is the first case of \u201criver piracy\u201d observed, and this occurs when the flow of one river is suddenly diverted to another river. The Slims River spanned up to 150 meters (nearly 500 feet) at its widest points, and this shows how global warming can dramatically change the geography of the earth.<\/p>\n
