Can dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe for success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog.
However, it wasn’t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals are just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.
In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk ‘Dog’, and dogs can learn how to talk ‘Cat’.
What’s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn to read each other’s body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was previously suspected. Once familiar with each other’s presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.
The significance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets ─ to people who don’t get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.

I've seen people do all kinds of things to relieve anxiety. Some have a glass of wine at dinner. Others shop or eat.But these are troubling times with hurricanes, tsunamis, war, and acts of terrorism —and if drinking, eating, or hitting the mall is your way offending off anxiety over the state of the world, you should know that the bill will eventually come due.And I don't mean just the credit card statement.Such coping methods do nothing to build your inner strength and resilience(弹性).Fortunately, there are ways to nurture(培养)true inner peace when outer peace isn't an option.
A few months ago, a woman called Nancy attended one of my seminars.Nancy had been through hard times. Three years earlier her house had burned down; then her husband's National Guard unit shipped out to Iraq, and when he returned he was angry, depressed, and shocked.The couple got treatment yet grew further apart until, finally, her husband asked for a divorce.Nancy realized she had a choice: She could drown in self-pity or move forward.After seeing how the trauma(心灵创伤)of war had torn up her husband, she wanted to make a difference with her life.So, at 35, she enrolled (注册学习)in a nursing school.
I think even Nancy was surprised by her resilience.But her leap into a life of greater meaning came from a simple change in outlook.She shifted her focus from her own problems to the difficulties of others.And that one change brought her clarity and peace.
This time of global uncertainty challenges each of us to create our own sense of security.That doesn't mean you need to follow Nancy's lead into a nursing career, but keeping an eye on what really matters will help you maintain your balance when things around you seem to fall apart.

Angry Birds has even inspired works of philosophical analogy(哲学类比).A five-part essay with the title“ Angry Birds Yoga(瑜伽)---How to Eliminate the Green Pigs in Your Life” was written by Giridhari Dasar in Brazil ,utilizing the characters and game play mechanics to interpret various concepts of yoga philosophy.
