THE EACH ONE, MOVE ONE PLEDGE"I pledge to reach out to a friend or family member who is conflicted about supporting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people because of his or her religious convictions. I pledge to engage that loved one with my story of courage, sharing why I believe it is important for all of us to open our hearts and minds to the inherent dignity of all people."

Humans aren’t the only species on Planet Earth to seek thrills and adventure. A new study posted in the journal Science explains that honey bees are just as likely as human beings to seek an adrenaline high.

They are both nest-building social insects, but paper wasps and honey bees organize their colonies in very different ways.

Researchers report this week that they have found a surprising but reliable marker of colony collapse disorder, a baffling malady that in 2007-2008 killed off more than a third of commercial honey bees in the U.S.

Honey bees on cocaine tend to exaggerate their actions to hive-mates for possibly altruistic reasons, University of Illinois researchers reported Tuesday. Normally foraging honey bees dance to alert others in the hive to potential food sources only when the sources are high quality, but bees buzzing on cocaine performed their dance when any food was found, the Champaign, Ill., university said in a release. The dance, or waggle, gives information that helps other bees find nectar or food. The findings, published in the latest Journal of Experimental Biology, provides new information on the honey bee dance language, said University of Illinois entomology and neuroscience professor and lead study researcher Gene Robinson.
