All those toys you lost when you were a kid ended up at the Museum of Play in Rochester, New York. Part of the Strong Museum, the Museum of Play has over 500,000 toys spanning the history of American kids. If you can't find it here, it probably didn't exist.
Summer is over, fall is almost here, and that means school is back in session. And if you're going to go to school, you're going to need a proper sandwich in your lunch bag. Babish has the perfect recipe: Rodney Dangerfield's ridiculous monstrosity from the 1986's Back to School.
Highlight plays. High-flying dunks. Ankle-breaking crossovers. Brutal blocks. Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant can do it all — and in style. Now, you can wear his signature on-court kicks, too, the Nike Ja 1, a mid-top sneaker with a bouncy forefoot Air Zoom unit for when you're taking off, a cushioned midsole for when you land, a foam collar so you don't roll an ankle, and plenty of grip and a forefoot strap so you can easily break others'. Subtle touches like Ja's custom 12 a.m. graphic, handwritten signature, hand-drawn logo, and jersey number add a truly custom feel, even if this player exclusive is up for grabs to everyone to wear their own way. These do, however, fit a bit small — so size a half-size up for the best fit and performance.

Ever run a half-marathon in work pants? Someone did in the Ministry of Supply's Kinetic Pant, and they set a Guinness World Record. We don't necessarily recommend doing that daily — unless you're late for a meeting — but that's certainly more than enough proof that they're comfortable, stretchy, sweat- and water-resistant, wrinkle-free, and breathable. Plus, they're machine washable and easy to dress up or down depending on the day, thanks to the wide array of colors they offer, comfortable drawstring band, and zippered pockets. Adding to their versatility, they're specifically cut to work well with sneakers, which most of us are rocking to the office and on the weekends, too. And the waist measurements aren't broad-stroke alpha sizing: these are available in 28 through 40-inch waist sizes.

Nothing says summer like waterslides. Nothing says adventure quite like BASE jumping. Now put the two together. Stuntman Marshall Milller and a few friends filmed their exploits in the Utah desert for some late-summer fun.

Don't let your tie be an afterthought. Don't go digging for that kitschy hand-me-down your dad not-so-kindly bestowed upon you — stock up on stylish, timeless, Italian-made ties from Aklasu instead. Alaksu's assortment of silk ties come in several finishes: grenadine, six-fold, and shantung. Grenadine, a weave known for its light, gauze-like feel, is a traditional Italian weave long associated with James Bond — stretching all the way back to when Sean Connery assumed the role. Somewhat forgotten by most men nowadays, picking it is an easy way to stand out from the crowd — and for the right reason, too, not because your tie has dogs or tiny beers on it. Whether you want an orange, blue, black, or burgundy tie, Aklasu likely offers it, and with the right proportions and fit.

When George Romero's Night of the Living Dead launched the zombie revolution, one important thing was missing: The copyright information on the film's title card. Under then-current law, the film entered into the public domain and was free for anyone use or directly lift — and that's how zombies became a billion-dollar industry. Unlike Universal with their lockdown on monsters like Frankenstein, anyone can make a zombie flick — making the genre one of the most popular choices for aspiring filmmakers worldwide.
Winter is coming. If fact, it's already here, and the color palette of Game of Thrones has changed with the seasons. Vox broke down the colors of every episode of every season and analyzed them to see how the change — and just like winter, the show is getting darker all the time.
