He was widely thought to be the late Queen's favourite son, which gave the young boy a licence to get away with behaviour his siblings could not. Prince Andrew, 65, grew up 'boisterous, self-willed, extroverted, confident and active - everything Charles was not,' according to a royal author.

German Shepherd Obsessed With His New Baby Goat Siblings Is the Ultimate Big Brother
German Shepherd Obsessed With His New Baby Goat Siblings Is the Ultimate Big Brother originally appeared on PetHelpful. Everybody is always happy to have the chance to make new friends. This is just as true of animals as it is of humans. Just take Bear, the German Shepherd, for instance. Bear's human parents recently brought home some new additions to the family, a couple of Nigerian dwarf goats. Naturally, Bear is curious about his new friends and wants to get to know them more. This video even goes so far as to say that he is 'obsessed' with them. However, due to his formidable size, these tiny creatures are more than a little intimidated by him. As you can see, these precious little baby goats are pretty darn scared of Bear. He is a pretty big dog, after all. Each time he goes over to their pen to investigate or to try to meet them, these goats stay away from the fence, wanting to keep their distance so that they can feel safe. Nevertheless, Bear is not deterred. He is still eager to get more up close and personal with his brand-new is important to note that Bear's humans are taking extra care and caution to slowly introduce these baby Nigerian goats to their canine big brother, to make sure that everyone is comfortable with each other. Towards the end of this video, you can see one of these baby goats very tentatively going to the fence to greet Bear a little bit. For his part, Bear was very calm while the baby goat displayed some of their own excitement, hopping up and down as they seemingly realized that the large furry creature before them was a friend. However, Bear's friendly nature around these baby goats is no surprise. As this other video shows, he is already the best friend of an adorable human toddler. As you can see, this big dog and this tiny boy have the best time playing together. They have a really special bond and are pretty much inseparable from one another. Could it be that one day these precious little baby goats will have a similarly sweet bond with the bighearted Bear? We certainly hope so. But if that tiny baby goat's precious little hops at the end of the first video or any indication, they and Bear seem to be getting off on the right track. Looking for more PetHelpful updates?

June global nonfiction: From 14th to 21st century, six new books tell humanity's essential stories
All information sourced from publishers. Becoming Earth: How Our Planet Came to Life, Ferris Jabr The notion of a living world is one of humanity's oldest beliefs. Though once scorned by many scientists, the concept of Earth as a vast interconnected living system has gained acceptance in recent decades. Life not only adapts to its surroundings – it also shapes them in dramatic and enduring ways. Over billions of years, life transformed a lump of orbiting rock into our cosmic oasis, breathing oxygen into the atmosphere, concocting the modern oceans, and turning rock into fertile soil. Life is intertwined with Earth's capacity to regulate its climate and maintain balance. Through compelling narrative, evocative descriptions and lucid explanations, Becoming Earth shows us how Earth became the world we've known, how it is rapidly becoming a very different world, and how we will determine what kind of Earth our descendants inherit for millennia to come. Artists, Siblings, Visionaries: The Lives and Loves of Gwen and Augustus John, Judith Mackrell In Artists, Siblings, Visionaries, biographer Judith Mackrell turns her attention to British brother and sister artists Gwen and Augustus John. In many ways, they were polar opposites. Augustus was the larger of the two; vivid, volatile and promiscuous, he was a hero among romantics and bohemians, celebrated as one of the great British talents of his generation. As a woman, Gwen's place in the art world was much smaller, and her private way of working and reserved nature meant it was only long after her death that her tremendous gifts were fully acknowledged. But her temperament was as turbulent as her brother's. She formed passionate attachments to men and women, including a long affair with the sculptor Rodin. And there were other ways in which the two Johns were remarkably alike, as Mackrell vividly reveals. The result is a powerful portrait of two prodigiously talented artists and visionaries, whose experiments with form and colour created some of the most memorable work of the early 20th century. Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism, Amanda Montell What makes 'cults' so intriguing and frightening? What makes them powerful? The reason why so many of us binge-watch Manson documentaries by the dozen and fall down rabbit holes researching suburban moms gone QAnon is because we're looking for a satisfying explanation for what causes people to join – and more importantly, stay in – extreme groups. We secretly want to know: could it happen to me? Amanda Montell's argument is that, on some level, it already has … Our culture tends to provide pretty flimsy answers to questions of cult influence, mostly having to do with vague talk of 'brainwashing.' But the true answer has nothing to do with freaky mind-control wizardry or Kool-Aid. In Cultish, Montell argues that the key to manufacturing intense ideology, community, and us/them attitudes all comes down to language. In both positive ways and shadowy ones, cultish language is something we hear – and are influenced by – every single day. Fatherhood: A History of Love and Power, Augustine Sedgewick What is fatherhood, and where did it come from? How has the role of men in families and society changed across thousands of years? What does the history of fatherhood reveal about what it means to be a dad today? From the anxious philosophers of ancient Athens and Henry VIII's obsessive quest for an heir, to Charles Darwin's theories of human origins, Bob Dylan's take down of 'The Man', and beyond, Sedgewick shows how successive generations of men have shaped our understanding of what it means to be and have a father, and in turn our ideas of who we are, where we come from and what we are capable of. Sceptred Isle: A New History of the Fourteenth Century, Helen Carr The death of Edward I in 1307 marked the beginning of a period of intense turmoil and change in England. The 14th century ushered in the beginning of the bloody Hundred Years' War with France, an epic conflict with Scotland that would last into the 16th century, famine in Northern Europe and the largest human catastrophe in known history, the Black Death. Through the epic drama of regicide, war, the prolonged spectre of bubonic plague, religious antagonism, revolt and the end of a royal dynasty, this book tells the story of the 14th century via the lives of Edward II, Edward III and Richard II – three very different monarchs, each with their own egos and ambitions, each with their own ideas about England and what it meant to wield power. Alongside the lives of the last Plantagenets, it also uncovers lesser-known voices and untold stories to give a new portrait of a fractured monarchy, the birth of the struggle between Europeanism and nationalism, social rebellion and a global pandemic. Sceptred Isle is a narrative account of a century of revolution, shifting power and great change – social, political and cultural – shedding new light on a pivotal period of English history and the people who lived it. Murderland: Crime and Bloodlust in the Time of Serial Killers, Caroline Fraser Author Caroline Fraser grew up in the shadow of Ted Bundy, the most notorious serial murderer of women in American history, surrounded by his hunting grounds and mountain body dumps, in the brooding landscape of the Pacific Northwest. But in the 1970s and 80s, Bundy was just one perpetrator amid an uncanny explosion of serial rape and murder across the region. Why so many? Why so weirdly and nightmarishly gruesome? Why the senseless rise and then sudden fall of an epidemic of serial killing? As Murderland indelibly maps the lives and careers of Bundy and his infamous peers in mayhem – the Green River Killer, the I-5 Killer, the Night Stalker, the Hillside Strangler, even Charles Manson – Fraser's Northwestern death trip begins to uncover a deeper mystery and an overlapping pattern of environmental destruction. At ground zero in Ted Bundy's Tacoma, stood one of the most poisonous lead, copper, and arsenic smelters in the world, but it was only one among many that dotted the area. As Fraser's investigation inexorably proceeds, evidence mounts that the plumes of western smelters not only sickened and blighted millions of lives but also warped young minds, spawning a generation of serial killers.

EXCLUSIVE Molly-Mae Hague's sister admits she feels 'hated' by the influencer as they clash over Tommy Fury relationship
Molly-Mae Hague clashes with sister Zoe over her decision to get back with ex-boyfriend Tommy Fury, as the siblings' strained relationship is seen for the first time. Zoe, 28, says she feels 'hated' by Molly, 25, after she voiced concerns about her younger sister's reconciliation with the boxer, as she predicts it will only end in tears. In a first look at Molly's Prime Video series Behind It All, Zoe fears their bond will be ruined if the former Love Island stars agree to rekindle, admitting: 'I do worry about my relationship with her if they were to get back together, definitely.' But Molly, who's three years Zoe's junior, insists she is making the right choice, and tells her sister that she should be able to tell her 'the good, bad, and the ugly.' During the heated exchange, where Zoe says, 'Nothing I do or say to you is going to change what you do or your opinion, or how you feel towards him', Molly snaps back: 'Correct, and do you know what Zoe, that's the wisest thing I think you've ever said.' The YouTuber even sarcastically snipes, 'What a lovely life if that is your only worry' after Zoe says, 'Your relationship and how you feel and how you are with Tommy is my only concern.' Zoe, who married husband Danny Rae last July, tells Molly she believes getting back with Tommy is a mistake because she will only end up hurt again. And she predicts their relationship will fail within the year, saying that she knows the risks involved are high. She explains: 'I know at some point Mol, in the next year, however long it is, there will be a time where unfortunately, and I hate to say it, you probably will be upset again.' Speaking to camera Zoe adds: 'I will always, always, always 100 per cent be there for her but yeah, I do worry about my relationship with her if they were to get back together, definitely.' Tensions are high between the sisters as Zoe struggles to get her point of view across while Molly says she believes the animosity stems from years of arguments. Zoe says: 'I actually don't hate you in the slightest, like, I feel like you actually hate me.' Molly replies: 'No, I don't hate you. Sometimes I feel that anger from you, towards me, from like years and tears of like, us sometimes having arguments…' Despite Zoe wanting Molly to share the truth about her romance with Tommy, she also faces the dilemma of her sister not listening to her advice. The clip from Behind It All gives fans a glimpse into the final three episodes of season one, which is available to watch on Friday. Molly and sister Zoe's fallout becomes the focal point as the two clash over the influencer getting back with Tommy. Despite announcing her split from fiancé Tommy in August, Molly and the boxer rekindled their five-year relationship on New Year's Eve, sharing a passionate kiss at midnight. Since January, as well as continuing to co-parent two-year-old daughter Bambi, the couple spent Valentine's Day together at luxury Estelle Manor in Oxford and have enjoyed a holiday in Dubai. During the first instalment of Behind It All, viewers saw Molly reflect on the impact of the couple's split, as she rewatched footage of their romantic engagement. She discussed with her mother Debbie the reasons for their separation, including Tommy's struggles with alcohol, which led to him partying and facing accusations of cheating. Tommy has admitted that he let alcohol ruin his relationship and he went out to 'drink and drink and drink.' In a trailer for Molly's show, which was released last week, the star admits she lives in fear of their romance being 'destroyed' after agreeing to give Tommy a second chance.
