Thilo Pfau, a professor of bioengineering, and his team first outfitted both jockeys and horses with inertial sensors. The humans wore the instruments in their kidney belts; the animals wore them at the front of the saddle. "The sensors are accelerometers similar to what's in the Wii," says physicist Andrew Spence, who participated in the work. "Once you synchronize the two, you can determine the relative motion of the man and the horse." The jockeys also wore global-positioning trackers so their speed and position could be followed. "The tracker was in the helmet, where the GPS satellites could...

What did you miss the most during these stretches? I really missed my friends and family quite a bit on the first leg, over to Hawaii. That was pretty hard. After the trip wore on a bit, I got kind of used to being alone. I made tons of friends all over the world. It becomes easier to say goodbye and move...

...took a lot of flak for what she wore to meet the Queen. She did. I sort of thought it was Oscar de la Renta who ignited that.

And then he got a lot of flak for what...

...wears long coats too, doesn't she? She does wear a lot of long coats. It's summer now, so we haven't been seeing her in them, but certainly all through the fall she wore a lot of long coats, which made great sense. She really chooses unusual colors. She doesn't often go with the traditional spectrum: red, cobalt. She does not do that. She does chartreuse, she does teal. The red that she uses is a kind of tomato; it has an orange tint to it. I personally think that it takes an evolved sense of aesthetics...

...venture an opinion about one outfit, I thought that what she wore the night Barack Obama won the nomination, that red-and-black dress, was awful. It was not my favorite dress ... I did not think it was the most flattering look on her for sure. I would like to say that we all get it wrong sometimes, and even [if you're] someone like Michelle Obama who has help and resources and a fantastic physique, you get it wrong sometimes. I think that endears her to women. We all get it wrong. It almost makes me feel better...
