It was the recipe that launched a career: Boeuf bourguignon. The first recipe from Julia Child's The French Chef originally aired in 1963 and is credited with bringing French cuisine to the United States. Babish recreates the dish to see how it's held up after nearly 60 years — and it passes with flying colors.
Spoilers ahead if you haven't watched Prometheus, the 2012 film and previous entry in the Alien franchise. In this fascinating clip, Dr. Shaw and the android David are drifting aboard the Engineer ship. Shaw repairs David, who then sets a course for the Engineer homeworld. Little by little, the mysterious Engineers are beginning to come out of the shadows. Alien: Covenant comes to theaters May 19, 2017.
Eat, sleep, hang out in trees and move really slow — the life of a sloth doesn't seem too bad. But that cute face and languid movements aren't an accident. Living in trees is a great way to avoid predators, but with a diet almost exclusively consisting of leaves, sloths don't get a lot of energy from their food. Taking their time and moving at a leisurely pace is one of a few ways they've adapted to their diet. TED looks at the giant ancestors of sloths and the much smaller modern species we know today.
Everyone's heard of Omega-3 fatty acid, and how it can be beneficial to overall health. That's because it was discovered nearly a century ago. C15:0 — pentadecanoic acid — on the other hand, was discovered only recently, and is thus harder to obtain, unless your diet consists of whole-fat dairy products and specific fish and plants (not a likely combo). Fatty15 is a pure, vegan-friendly supplement that delivers just the right amount of C15:0. Within just a few weeks of daily use, people report better sleep, improved mood, and less joint inflammation, likely due to the compound's ability to protect and replenish cells, improve liver function, and balance metabolism. The easy-to-swallow pills are available in single bottles of 30 doses each, or on a subscription basis.

An ode to Nike's original innovator, Bill Bowerman, who developed sneakers while Phil Knight ran the business, the new Nike Pegasus 41 Blueprint features nods to the former's efforts to always push the boundaries of what was possible, especially at the time. And now you can, too, whether you're committed to a high-mileage plan or you tackle your low-lift runs on cruise control. "Bowerman Prototype" reads on the tongue tag and the insole, while the speckled Swoosh logo represents the unfinished nature of the design. This release is fully-fledged, though, with its featherweight mesh upper for better mobility and breathability, new dual Air Zoom units and a ReactX foam midsole for improved energy return, all built around the MR-10 Last, the most consistent in terms of sizing. These sneakers do manage to look back and ahead at the same time, though, by spotlighting the signature waffle outsole developed by Bowerman and pledging commitment to Nike's Move to Zero campaign, which ensures all new products use some ratio of recycled materials from post-consumer and/or post-manufactured waste.
He never sold out arenas. He never made the top of the Billboard charts. You can't stream his records. He won't be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame — but he's a rock legend as much as anyone named Lennon, Bowie, or Vicious. Johnny Physical, aka Jonathan Neuman, fronted the New York-based band The Physicals. With Frankie Lines, Danny Animal, and Nick Fiction, The Physicals became a local phenomenon with Johnny fronting the band. But like so much in music, the story has a tragic ending. Johnny was diagnosed with leukemia and succumbed to the disease after a year-long battle. But gone doesn't mean forgotten. Johnny's brother Joshua made this portrait of Johnny, showing the person he was and keeping his memory alive.
Going to the Moon takes days. A mission to Mars could be months. As technology improves, spending years in zero gravity could become a possibility. And when you put people together in such close quarters for such long periods of time — things are bound to happen. But for all we know about space and how to survive there, we know practically nothing about sex 200 miles up. Tests with animals and insects make it appear more difficult, but there is almost zero research with humans — and if space really is the final frontier, it's probably time to start finding out.
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.
Sometimes bigger really is better. With a 24"-wide cooking area, the Ooni Koda 2 Max can easily cook massive 20" New York-style pies, or handle up to three 10" pizzas simultaneously. That size also makes room for two independently controlled gas burners and two 3/4′′ cordierite pizza stones, creating dual cooking zones. A front-mounted digital temperature display and app connectivity make monitoring the oven simple, G2 Gas Technology with tapered flames delivers more consistent heat, and the glass visor is removable to allow for cooking larger dishes. Available in propane and natural gas versions.
Bowling is a thing of beauty. From President Nixon to The Big Lebowski, bowling is ingrained in the national conscious — it's the largest participatory sport in the US, one of the few remaining in-person social interactions and could arguably be called the real national pastime. Ben Ketola captures the art of the sport in spectacular fashion, albeit by himself. The bowler set a world record by bowling twelve straight strikes in just under 90 seconds.
On the coast of South Wales in the United Kingdom, the small village of St Athan is home to 4,500 people — and the St Athan Royal Air Force Base. Now St Athan is getting some new neighbors. Legendary automobile manufacturer Aston Martin has taken over three supermassive hangars at the airbase, with plans to move production to the new site. To celebrate taking over the future factory space, Aston Martin brought 28 very special guests to the empty hangars for a grand tour — 28 cars that mark Aston Martin's history in automotive excellence over the last 104 years.
