In the mid-1800s, Young Tom Morris was, along with his father Old Tom Morris, a pioneer of professional golf. By the age of 21, he had won the Open Championship four consecutive times, a record that remains to this day. While the game of golf would put Young Tom's name on the map, it would also be his downfall. Based on the book of the same name, Tommy's Honour tells the story of a father and son, the role of class in British society, and Old Tom's mission to keep the memory of his son alive. Tommy's Honour comes to theaters April 17, 2017.

Non-bypass brewing is a favorite of coffee aficionados. Weber Workshops builds on it with the BIRD. An acronym for Brew In Reverse Direction, it's the first non-bypass brewer to create piston-driven vacuum brews inside a glass device. Its ingenious Claw mechanism serves as the agitator when brewing, and then as the lifting mechanism, keeping even pressure on the outer edge. This ensures even vacuum pressure and provides complete control over extraction. Crafted from thick borosilicate glass with a stainless brewing pod and drive shaft, anodized aluminum cap and handle, and a solid brass wingnut and crown, it's a remarkably well-crafted design that should work for years.
