...relationships. What did you think about that? People are always saying, "Aren't people more complicated than animals?" And we are. But one of the things that animals totally have over us is that they pay attention. We're always noodling around. We say things we don't mean because we're not paying attention. We miss things because we're thinking about what we're going to have for dinner. Animals can't afford that. They're right in the moment. I hate to use that New Age-y term, but they really are. And new technology is certainly...

...What do you think about people's need to be affectionate with animals, like the moment in your book when you bear-hugged a dolphin? I think we have a longing to be part of the web of life, and animals remind us of that. I mean, that's part of why we have pets, I think, it sort of pulls us back into that broader web. For me, that was the real magic of the book and learning the training - because the way these principles worked with every species, including us, made me feel like, "See? We are part...

No electric light may mean that a child can't study after the sun sets, or that young girls need to spend more time gathering firewood during the day, worsening deforestation and leaving them vulnerable to attack in refugee camps and other unstable areas. "It was just amazing to me that two billion people...

...advantage to just two, 51-49, with 11:40 to play. Over the next eight minutes, though, Brown shot 7-for-9 from the floor and outscored Harvard 23-8 to open up a 17-point lead and thwart the Crimson’s chances.“I mean they’re a great team. They showed it,” junior forward Evan Harris said. “They showed why they were contending for first place in league the whole time. We dug ourselves a hole early, but I’m really proud...

...that increased friskiness doesn't necessarily mean the French are happier and better adjusted in the sack. Nearly 36% of French women say they've suffered "frequent or occasion" sexual dysfunction in the past year of their lives, while just over 21% of French men declared the same. That may explain why an estimated 500,000 patients in France visit sex counselors. But the study shows that some enduring French sexual myths are in fact without foundation, particularly the traditional contention of French men that their naturally larger sexual appetites give them grounds to fool around more. French women...
