A couple from South Carolina were enjoying their honeymoon in the Caribbean last week until they went swimming with sharks, and one shark went off script. Sarah and Evan Carroll of Charleston were snorkeling around nurse sharks that are considered harmless to humans unless they’re provoked. Well, one shark proved that theory wrong, and Evan captured it on video:  “I felt a strong whoosh of water [and] something clamp down on my arm and assumed my husband was playing a prank on me,” Sarah wrote, according to People....

We met in a 12-step program. I was half-crazed and full of rage; Ella was crying about old wounds and what her life, at 22, had become. Afterward, over Mexican food with some other drunks, we talked about F. Scott Fitzgerald and climate change. Soon, we were inseparable. When I took a job in California, she moved with me. We planned a future: engagement rings, children, moving back east. Then one night, after learning I’d gotten into graduate school in New York, I pulled out a little band of golden flowers....

These days, there are more websites, apps, and services dedicated to selling beer online than ever before. Some of them even promise delivery times of an hour or less, rivaling your local pizzeria on a busy night. That means you can go from being completely beer-less to holding a brand new six-pack in less than 60 minutes—all without ever leaving the comfort of your couch. It might not be the future inventors of the internet had originally imagined, but we’re certainly not complaining....

Let’s be honest, Hawaiian vacations are more about beachside mai tais and overindulgent luaus than they are about backcountry adventures. And that’s fine, but lei-bedecked travelers are missing out because Volcanoes National Park, spread across 520 square miles on the Big Island, has everything from tropical rain forests to a snowcapped peak and Kilauea volcano, which has been erupting continually since 1983.

Words by Rebecca Parsons In the world of SUP racing, there’s plenty of fierce rivalries. But perhaps none are more intense than the battle of the SUPBROz. Bruno and Daniel Hasulyo are Hungarian born but spent the majority of their childhoods in Florence, Italy. The product of two former professional athletes, a love for extreme sports was instilled in them from a young age. After their father introduced them to watersports, they fell in love with competition and eventually became professional team riders for Starboard, first in windsurfing and then in SUP....

Check the calendar—it’s almost February! If you’ve made it this far in your New Year’s resolution lose weight, congrats! Now, the hard part starts. It’s true. Most people give up their New Year’s resolutions within a week. Of those who last longer but still give up, most throw in the towel before the end of February. But studies have shown that if you can keep your New Year’s resolution through February, your chances of success increase dramatically....

As nights get shorter and colder, you’ll find yourself getting closer and closer with germy colleagues, mouth-breathing commuters, and your super-affectionate extended family. Oh, and all those holiday get-togethers? They’ll trip you up, too, as far as your health and waistline are concerned. To help you navigate the pitfalls, Allison Aiello, Ph.D., a professor of epidemiology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s Gillings School of Global Public Health, has garnered five easy-to-remember tips so you can stay on your A-game all-season long....

What’s Cooking is ASN’s series dedicated to what we and our fellow adventurers love to eat. Get recipes, camp food inspiration and health and wellness tips to incorporate into your daily life. I love cornbread, and could eat it on just about any occasion. But there’s something about just-cooked, fluffy cornbread as a morning breakfast treat, or around the campfire that always provides just the right comfort-food effect. I have to admit, I’m not a fan of everything that goes into a traditional cornbread, and was actually shocked at how easy it is to substitute these ingredients for more health-friendly options....

Tuesday afternoon, as many watched the SpaceX live stream of Falcon Heavy blast Elon Musk’s Tesla Roadster into outer space, it was hard not to come away feeling inspired. During the roughly 10 minutes of action, viewers watched as 27 engines thrust the 230-foot rocket through the Florida skyline and into Earth’s orbit. At the end of the mission, we now have a convertible Tesla Roadster cruising through outer space with the top down, and a “Don’t Panic” sign in place of the entertainment console....

Elijah Craig Barrel Proof is another hype bottle in the bourbon world, but since it will be on everyone’s radar after a year of accolades, it’s a good time to talk about the question of small batch bourbons and quality standards. It’s a problem for a small batch whiskey to be on the hype train: a particularly good batch with disappointing follow-ups can damage a brand. Small batches are typically designed to be replicated—the idea is that you batch together barrels with similar flavor profiles to recreate a familiar final product....

Ryan Reynolds has some big things ahead of him. He likely will be back as Deadpool in the near future; in December, he’ll have the Michael Bay-directed action flick 6 Underground coming to Netflix; he’s now a part of the Rock’s Hobbs & Shaw franchise; he’s developing a Clue movie with Jason Bateman; and next summer, he’ll be starring in the action comedy Free Guy. Ryan Reynolds Is a Billionaire Vigilante in Michael Bay’s ‘6 Underground’ Trailer...

While other carmakers suffer from an identity crisis, Subaru just keeps playing the same tune repeatedly, and without fail, customers keep jamming. Save one issue, when the record skips—parents. See, Subaru hasn’t had a three-row rig since the Tribeca ended sales in 2014. So the brand went back to its roots and did what it rocks at already: making eminently practical, easy-to-drive, reasonably fuel-efficient, AWD machines. Here are four reasons why you’ll want to consider the new 2019 Subaru Ascent SUV....

Twenty-five years ago, Kia launched in the U.S. with a handful of dealerships and a sedan remarkable only for its bargain price. But it wasn’t until this summer that the brand truly arrived. That’s courtesy of the Telluride, a big, three-row crossover, designed and built here for Americans. The Telluride is Kia’s largest vehicle, but it’s by no means slovenly. The design team, based in California, sharpened the edges of the massive family-hauler archetype, and, as if pulling it into focus, returning the sport-ute to its burly roots....

The fight is almost here and things are getting heated. Conor McGregor arrived in Las Vegas on Tuesday for his fight against Floyd Mayweather, and he got to work right away. McGregor, who is never afraid of dishing out some trash talk, got into a heated shouting match with his former sparring partner Paulie Malignaggi. Dana White previously released video of the two sparring, showing a clip of McGregor knocking down Malignaggi....

Today SUP Magazine is announcing it will not hold the 2019 Pacific Paddle Games (PPG).

(more from the APP here, who plans to withdraw the PPG from its 2019 World Tour line-up — press release below)....
