Bailey White: 'The Wedding Horse'

Storyteller Bailey White continues her tradition of writing an original tale on Thanksgiving. She tells the tale of a relationship between a young house painter and an elderly woman.

The Butterflies And Beetles Behind Evolution

Alfred Russel Wallace was Darwin's colleague, a globe-trotting naturalist who helped shape the theory of evolution.

It contained Wallace's personal collection of 1,600 butterflies and insects.

Group's Video Equates Flying And Polar Bears

A British environmental group has produced a video that shows falling polar bears slamming into the sides of buildings, onto the sidewalk or into the top of a parked car. The group, Plane Stupid, equates the weight of each bear, 400 kilograms, to the amount of greenhouse gases produced by an average European flight for each passenger it carries. Andrew Revkin, a New York Times reporter who covers the environment, looks at the facts.

In 1939, the nation was thrown into confusion when Franklin Roosevelt tried to move Thanksgiving back a week, hoping to boost Christmas shopping sales.
