One of the most fantastical ideas to spring from the minds of humans has become a common trope — time travel. As a genre, time travel dates back around 100 to 150 years ago, with books like The Time Machine, A Connecticut Yankee in King Authur's Court, and even A Christmas Carol. But the concept is far older than that, beginning with the human sense of regret. Nerdwriter digs into the past to find the origin of trying to change what's already happened, or what's going to happen in the future.

The leading cause of death is being alive. Our bodies are full of zombies — senescent cells that refuse to die when they should. As these cells accumulate, they wreak havoc on healthy cells around them — and making us age in the process. Kurzgesagt looks at how scientists are looking at reversing aging as a means to keep us healthier for longer.

Also starring Dave Franco, Alison Brie, Josh Hutcherson, Jacki Weaver, Nathan Fielder, and June Diane Raphael, The Disaster Artist comes to theaters December 1, 2017.

Crafted from an ultra-soft brushed cotton blend, the lightweight layer delivers warmth with a smooth hand feel while maintaining a relaxed fit that never looks oversized.

It's the kind of everyday essential that quietly replaces every other hoodie in your rotation, proving that comfort and polish can coexist.
Pegasus is Nike's top-selling running line and its longest-lived, and the 42 gives the everyday trainer a roomier fit. The ReactX foam midsole, up 13% in responsiveness over Nike's previous React foam, is paired with an Air Zoom unit that curves the full length of the shoe for the highest energy return Nike offers, from heel to toe-off. The mesh upper is softer and airier than before, a reworked fit leaves the forefoot and toes a little extra space, and a steeper curve under the toes adds spring. A lighter Waffle outsole pairs high-abrasion rubber with flex grooves for traction and flexibility. A men's size 10 weighs about 10.5 ounces.
