Iowa farmer Eric Reicks was in his combine harvesting the last rows of corn when his father, working on site, called to alert him of something running toward him.

A visit to serene, preserved Kyoto is an obvious followup—and a perfect complement—to your futuristic, often overstimulating stay in Tokyo. Whereas the big city demands you keep pace and build up up up, Kyoto wants you to slow down, stay grounded, and savor it all. (Though Kyoto is itself a big city, at 1.5 million, though much smaller than Tokyo’s 9.5) It’s a much more straightforward visit than one to Tokyo, too....
I’ve read enough personal running blogs over the years, where people publish incredibly in-depth recaps of their race weekend experiences, that it brings me, and probably only me, great joy to start this next paragraph like so many I’ve seen before: I arrived in Chicago with my wife and two daughters on Friday afternoon—some of us took naps; one of us made encouraging signs for race day with all the materials the Nike folks were kind enough to leave in our room....

When you sit down to watch a James Bond film, you know you’re in for plenty of action, mystery, and some handsome leading men portraying a very romanticized view of spycraft. But high-wattage actors like Daniel Craig aren’t the only stars in these films—the cars are celebrities, too. (It’s hard to imagine James Bond without that iconic Aston Martin DB5 by his side). Now a new vehicle is stepping into the spotlight: No Time to Die will feature the 2020 Land Rover Defender, and a new Land Rover ad (disguised as a behind-the-scenes video) shows the sturdy truck will be put through serious punishment on-screen....

That friend who never traded punk rockers Black Flag for something a little less aggro? He’s probably got more testosterone than his easy-listening peers. Researchers in Japan compared a group of volunteers’ musical preferences against their T levels. The difference was stark. Men who preferred rock, metal, and punk (aka “unsophisticated” music, per researchers) had more of the male hormone than the guys who were turned on by jazz, classical, and the like....
