One of the most dazzling careers in NASCAR is coming to an end: With 18 seasons under his belt and seven NASCAR Cup wins to his name, Jimmie Johnson has announced he’ll retire from full-time driving after the 2020 season. He made the announcement Nov. 20 via Twitter. “I’m so grateful for 18 incredible years of racing in NASCAR,” says in the video. “The sport has been good to me, and has allowed me to do something I truly love....
Although haircare companies might tell you otherwise, there’s no silver bullet cure for thinning hair. Whether it’s tried-and-true remedies like Rogaine or new startups like Hims, most of these products merely slow hair loss or thicken thinning strands. They can’t actually prevent it, or bring back all your lost hair. But that may soon change. Emerging research shows that stem cells—cells that have the potential to develop into other kinds of cells—could be the key to regrowing real, healthy hair once your mane has thinned out....
There are road races where you’re encouraged to run high, and gyms dedicated to working out stoned. But what actually happens if you smoke weed and then run—or jump, or lift? “How marijuana affects your workout or performance depends largely on the type of exercise and goal at hand,” says Jordan Tishler, M.D., a Harvard-trained internist and leading cannabis therapeutics specialist. And to be clear: There isn’t much hard scientific research on marijuana and exercise....

Today was the first day of the Outdoor Retailer 2018 Winter Market. After combining the show with the Snow Show this past January, the Winter Market is back to flying solo.

Here are the brands and products that caught our eye as we navigated our way across the showroom floor during Day 1 of the show....
On Tuesday, the Surfrider Foundation released their latest short film around their campaign “The United States and Oceans of America.” It emphasizes the fact that the United States is made up of more water than land – America’s oceans cover roughly 20% more area than its landmass – and that it is up to each and every American to fight for and help protect the “land and oceans of the free and the home and waves of the brave....
At the end of the day, sometimes you just wanna lay down and just unwind. You don’t have the energy to go out with friends or workout. So when you get home, you’ll take your work clothes off and lounge around the house.

Even just in the last five years, everyday aspects of life have seen an upgrade thanks to the never-ending march of progress. There is almost nothing in the home that has a little tinge of futurism to it. Even lamps are even getting into this business. At the end of the day, it is still a lamp. But there are little changes and additions that can make a lamp a much better product than the lamps of yore....

Every year, men and women with a ravenous sense of adventure and some seriously strong legs embark on a multi-stage event called the Nedbank Tour de Tuli. It’s the main fundraising event for Wilderness Safaris, Africa’s leading sustainable ecotourism operator based in Johannesburg that’s wholly dedicated not just to conservation, but to restoring Africa’s wilderness and wildlife. A big part of that includes educating the local population, so proceeds for this particular event go toward Children in the Wilderness—an educational program for rural boys and girls throughout Africa....
The Gift of Time During the holidays, we put a lot of focus on time. After all, it’s the most wonderful time of the year. But how frequently do we stop to think about time itself—the importance of seconds, minutes, hours—and how we spend them? We take time off from work to spend time with loved ones and we spend too much time searching and shopping for the perfect holiday gift....

Craft beers are great. But in the summer, when the heat becomes inescapable and kinda makes you want to die, the last thing you want are heavy-ass artisanal suds sloshing around in your stomach (especially when playing yard games). You need a Budweiser. In order to view the video, please allow Manage Cookies Yes, a watered-down, not-super-flavorful-yet-totally-perfect Budweiser. Whether you’re at a midday baseball game, splayed out on a beach somewhere, or enduring your kid’s backyard birthday party, the King of Beers will hit the spot every time....
Even from within the armored truck, C.J. Chivers heard the gunshot. On assignment for the New York Times in Karma, Iraq, in October 2006, he and Dustin Kirby, a Navy trauma medic, had just taken their seats, after a raid that morning had produced a cache of rifles and bomb parts. The Marines had encountered no insurgents during the search. But as their caravan prepared to roll out, a sniper fired a single shot—striking a turret gunner in the head....
Austrian climber Angela Eiten had a pretty good weekend. On Sunday, the 31-year-old became the first woman to send a 5.15b grade. She bested the La Planta de Shiva climb, which is located in Villanueva Del Rosario, Andalucia, Spain. Before her historic climb, the route had only been finished by men — and only a handful of them at that. The 10 Best Rock Climbing Shoes Read article Eiten was obviously stoked and took to her Instagram, saying it was “One of the most memorable days of my life....
A 40-foot humpback whale that rescuers untangled from fishing line ultimately died of exhaustion and washed ashore Monday on Nobbys Beach in Port Macquarie, Australia. What happened next stirred a great deal of controversy. After deciding it was too big to move, the Port Macquarie Hastings Council had the whale carcass buried on the beach. Now, great white sharks are flocking to the area, drawn by the scent, and some are worried more sharks will continue to come, according to Macquarie Port News and the Australian Associated Press....
