Rahman.

  3. Some butterflies get unique wing patterns by crossbreeding

    The Postman butterfly, a brightly colored favorite of collectors and scientists since its discovery in the Victorian era, tastes bad -- very bad. Predators who have bitten into one shy away from future contact because of the foul aftertaste.

  7. Dan Campbell moves past a battered legacy as USA Boxing coach

    Many days, Dan Campbell can be found standing, arms folded, in the center of the noisy boxing gym at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. The smack of leather gloves against raw flesh has been the soundtrack of his career, so even though Campbell retired nearly four years ago, he still shows up to watch the fighters train.
