NPR's Tiny Desk was taken over by three humanoid aliens — or robots, or maybe even real men in heavy blue makeup — as the Blue Man Group brought their eclectic ambient sounds to the office.

Roey Tzezana explains the idea of von Neumann machines and how they could aid in getting civilization across our galaxy.

Given the size of the heel, you'd be forgiven for thinking Nike's Vomero 18 running shoes were designed for hardcore racers. Instead, their dual-density midsole of lightweight ZoomX foam and responsive ReactX foam is designed to give everyday runners the most cushioned ride possible. The upper is made from engineered mesh for breathability, while the plush tongue and lining boost comfort. On the bottom, the outsole sports a pod system with a new traction pattern for added agility and smoother heel-to-toe transitions. Now available in an eye-popping bright green, orange, and silver colorway.

Named by reversing Après, the Sèrpa is built for that golden hour sip after a day outdoors. It features vacuum-insulated 18/8 stainless steel, a leak-proof, knurled steel lid that magnetically nests underneath the tumbler for hands-free, on-the-go sipping.
