If we had to bet, chicken fingers have probably been one of your go-to snacks since you were in elementary school.

Substitute out regular bread crumbs for the whole-wheat version, and enjoy your go-to snack guilt-free....

Fifty-six years ago almost to the day, a strange and horrifying event in a seaside town in California inspired Alfred Hitchcock’s thriller “The Birds.” Scores of sooty shearwaters flew into the sides of buildings and at residents who ventured outside. The seabirds vomited anchovies and died en masse in the streets. What caused those birds to go crazy in Capitola? Probably toxic algae from what’s commonly called a “red tide.”...

While many people lob Instagram stories towards those still riding during this time, there has been a question of whether people are being overactive about stretching the healthcare system too thin during a time like this. Perhaps this news coming out of Telluride Colorado this week will help people understand the severity of the situation. According to a Facebook post by the Colorado-based San Miguel County Sheriff (on March 24): “Deputies and more than three dozen Search and Rescue volunteers responded to a report of an avalanche with injured snowboarder in the East Waterfall Canyon area of Ophir....

Designed meticulously for a precise ride that feels identical to their class-leading Stumpjumper mountain bike, the 44 pound machine blows the category wide open. A new chassis, motor, and battery add up to a complete overhaul that is lighter, slimmer, smoother, and more capable than any electric bike before it....
If there’s one thing that standup paddlers can agree on, it’s that headwinds suck. There’s nothing more demoralizing than beating into wind chop, your board vibrating under your feet, your head down as you make negligible progress. If the wind is heavy enough, eventually you have to change course. It’s something that the staff at SUP is used to, both on and off the water. In that vein, we are changing tack: our Summer Issue, on newsstands now, will be our last regularly published print magazine....
Even when you’re in Sydney, it feels like a postcard. You’ve long imagined what those famous scenes would look like in person—the opera house, Harbour Bridge, and the Bondi Beach sprawl (as well as that famous lap pool overlooking the coast that’s all over Instagram). And when you’re there, Sydney still feels surreal—true to your expectations. It’s like your first visit to San Francisco, Tokyo, London, or Rio. But there’s more to Sydney than its wildly popular attractions....

How to Work Out on a Plane Read article Suffering through hours of cramped quarters, virtually frozen in your seat, can take a toll on your neck, back, hips, and shoulders. And if you fly frequently, stiff joints, tight muscles, and disturbed blood flow can translate to chronic pain in your everyday life....
Like a lot of former soldiers, Randy Lloyd came home from war with injuries. Some were physical—back pain from a year-long tour in Iraq as part of an Army Reserves unit out of Ogden, UT. The more serious wounds, though, were mental and emotional. When Lloyd’s service ended in 2010, doctors prescribed opioids for his pain. But while attending college, he started taking more medication to deal with the pressures of school and a case of post-traumatic stress disorder....
While you won’t see us adding kale powder to our gym shakes any time soon, we must admit, kale’s a damn good autumn salad base. The 32 Healthiest Foods You Can Eat Read article “Kale is the perfect fall vegetable, at its sweetest when the weather turns colder,” says Ben Zwicker, chef of TBAR, a sleek, upscale steakhouse in Manhattan. “Its high Vitamin C content is crucial during flu season and it’s great to eat before, during, and after the holidays to minimize weight gain....
If you’re in need of a getaway, might we suggest an Italian alpine retreat. The Dolomite Mountains’ newest lodge is a high-country oasis that merges mountain adventures with Italian chill. South Tyrol, two and a half hours north of Venice, couldn’t be more different from the canal-cluttered tourist capital. Lying on the border with Austria, this Italian province feels far more like Cliffhanger than Under the Tuscan Sun, with alpine villages in the shadows of jagged peaks....
Nothing beats the classics. Last night, Little Women star Timothée Chalamet appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and he and Fallon took an Instagram pic in the middle of some serious behind-the-scenes reading.

Jason Momoa, our cover star for that issue, ogled the camera while Chalamet read the profile of the arrow-firing, rock-climbing, axe-throwing actor....

We’ve all heard about the merits of bone broth. This magical liquid is made from – like the name suggests – boiling chicken or beef bones to extract healing collagen and other powerful minerals, which act as an anti-inflammatory poultice for the body’s joints, muscles and most important, the gut. After a tough workout, your body needs nutrients to aid in recovery and muscle building, Melissa Rifkin, MS RD, tells ASN....
