As you watch women’s figure skating at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, you may notice something unusual about some of the jumps: skaters raising their arms overhead as they rotate. Not every skater does it, but enough do that you might be wondering what this technique is all about. Like so much in figure

For figure skating, you can see some of the most dramatic action happening rink-side at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, especially when it comes to the anxious theatrics on display at the “kiss and cry.” The kiss and cry refers to the area where skaters await their scores postperformance and is a term coined

You’d be silly to think the world of nondairy milks has reached its limit because, as demonstrated by the plethora to choose from — soy, almond, cashew, oat, and even milk made from potatoes and pea protein — nondairy-milks can be made out of anything. So why stop there? Is there another grain we can

I started running in 2017 as an inexpensive way to improve my physical and mental health. Five years later, I’ve learned a lot about myself. I’ve gained new appreciation for my body and what it can do, developed impressive willpower, and feel so much stronger — in every sense of the word. But while I
