First Descent of K2 On Skis
K2 on the border of China and Pakistan is the second-tallest mountain in the world and one of the most dangerous — around one in every four of the people who reach the summit don't make it back. Polish skier Andrzej Bargiel successfully summited K2, and then skied back down over 28,000 feet, making him the first person in the world to do so.

The KilgourMD Bundle
Stanford dermatologist Dr. James Kilgour's eponymous hair growth brand, KilgourMD, has been shown to outperform the popular minoxidil, which only works to regrow hair once it's gone. The KilgourMD Bundle, however, puts patients on the offensive, too, providing a dual-acting proactive and reactive solution to hair thinning and hair loss. In clinical studies, the system — which is made from natural, plant-derived extracts and comprises The Prevention Scalp Serum and The Treatment — decreased visible hair fall by up to 30% and stimulated hair follicle growth by up to 200% over two months. Save 15% when bundling.
