...whitethroat is hardly alone in clocking a killer flight schedule. Among other birds of its type - like the Subalpine warbler, the Orphean warbler and the Barred warbler - annual migrations exceed 1,500 miles, sometimes over the Sahara. It might seem that another 200 miles tacked onto a several-thousand-mile journey wouldn't be too taxing. But for the estimated 500 million birds that migrate annually from Europe and Asia to Africa, surviving the journey is already difficult enough. Migrating birds - some of them as small as your fist - pack on body weight to stock fuel for the flight, sometimes...

Even from a very early age, James was drawn to writing. “I guess I was always writing, you know, in the way little kids do, with complete freedom and deep seriousness,” said James. Although she continued writing in high school, James...
...raging anti-Semitic streak, for one. Over the past few years, Dieudonné M'Bala M'Bala and Le Pen seem to have engaged in an increasingly sinister competition to see which man can outrage more people with comments designed to bait Jews. Now those efforts have earned Dieudonné something both men have repeatedly won in the past: a trial on charges of anti-Semitic offenses. It remains to be seen whether the trial will complicate the 41-year-old entertainer's plans to lead his self-described "anti-Zionist" list of candidates into June's European Parliamentary elections...
