RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA - DECEMBER 20: Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury 2 pose for a photo during the ... [+] weigh-in as part of Oleksandr Usyk v Tyson Fury 2 at on December 20, 2024 in Riyadh, . (Photo by Richard Pelham/Getty Images)Getty ImagesTyson Fury has to believe hell be better if hes heavier.On Friday in Riyadh, Fury weighed in at a whopping 281 pounds ahead of his rematch on Saturday against WBA, WBO, and WBC heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk.With Usyk weighing in at 226 pounds, Fury has an eye-popping 55-pound weight advantageor disadvantageagainst his rival in their rematch.Furys size is a humongous leap up from what he weighed in May when the two men clashed for the undisputed heavyweight championship. In the first fight, Fury weighed 262 pounds, outweighing Usyk by a sizable 39 pounds.The 281 pounds is the largest Fury has ever been in his 36-fight professional career."I'm pretty lean," Fury told ESPN. "Other than the big beard, I'm doing well. I'm in good shape and I'm fit as a fiddle. I'll be ready for Saturday night."What does this tell us about Furys game plan in the rematch?While its not certain, it appears Fury is looking to impose his will physically on Usyk and preparing to knock the champion out. This concept seemingly aligns with what Fury has been saying all fight week.MORE FOR YOUHes only spoken about hurting Usyk and taking the decision out of the hands of the judges. Traditionally, when a heavyweight elects to come in on the heavier side, its because they have designs on delivering punishment.On Usyks side, he is in similar shape to what he was for the first fight. The former undisputed cruiserweight champion weighed 223 pounds for the first fight. At that weight, he proved to be the fresher and more effective fighter late in the first meeting.Will that be the case in the rematch?It stands to reasonunless Saturdays fight doesnt go the distance. Usyk has traditionally outworked his heavyweight opponents. His work rate has been tough for opponents to keep pace with and you have to wonder if itll be any different for Furyespecially at nearly 300 pounds.The weight storyline, added to the relaunch of Ring Magazine and accompanied by the presence of two up-and-coming young heavyweights like Moses Itauma and Johnny Fisher, makes Saturday in Riyadh a special event for boxing, and more specifically, the heavyweight division.In case youve missed it, here is a look at the entire card:Oleksandr Usyk (c) vs. Tyson FuryMoses Itauma vs. Demsey McKeanJohnny Fisher vs. Dave AllenDennis McCann vs. Peter McGrailIsaac Lowe vs. Lee McGregorBe on the lookout for coverage of the fight, Itauma and Fischers results as well as the reactions to Usyk-Fury from the boxing community.

SAB Office Building / Sergei TchobanSave this picture! HG EschOffice BuildingsBerlin, GermanyArchitects: Sergei TchobanAreaArea of this architecture projectArea:6150 mYearCompletion year of this architecture project Year: 2024 PhotographsPhotographs:HG EschMore SpecsLess SpecsSave this picture!Text description provided by the architects. The SAB office building is embedded in the site of the historical Koenigstadt Brewery in the Berlin district of Prenzlauer Berg, directly on Saarbruecker Strasse, a street which takes its character from its Art Nouveau and Wilhelminian style architecture. The plot is located on the prominent edge of the Barnim Plateau and, in the innermost part of the street block, rises approximately two metres from Saarbruecker Strasse. The new building occupies the free corner of the street and a private road leading into an extensive Gewerbehof (typical Berlin courtyard occupied by small industrial enterprises).Save this picture!Save this picture!Beer has not been brewed on the site of what was once Berlin's largest brewery for around 100 years. After an eventful history, the buildings are now in mixed use by neighbourhood initiatives, media companies, restaurants, and start-ups. The listed Gewerbehof of the Koenigstadt AG brewery dates to the 'Wagner's Bairisch-Bier-Brauerei' brewery, which was founded in 1849. Today it consists of six historical buildings framing the new office building. The former warehouse, built in 1872, is directly adjacent to SAB. The old vaulted cellar, which was used as a beer storage room, has been partly exposed, preserved, and sensitively integrated into the new building.Save this picture!Save this picture!Concept. The reinforced-concrete skeleton structure with five upper floors and two basement floors rests on a solid base faced in clinker brick using a wild bond pattern which picks up on and at the same time reinterprets the materiality and colours of the surrounding industrial buildings. The plinth follows the building boundary on the street side. The storeys above it are set back with an approximately 15 degree rotation, allowing a view of the listed brewery buildings at the rear of the site. The roof of the plinth overlooking Saarbruecker Strasse fringes the upper storeys and has been designed as a spacious, partly planted terrace area.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The facades of the first to fifth storeys above the plinth consist of sawtooth-like, scaly, floor-to-ceiling windows in dark aluminium frames. The twisting of the upper storeys with differently orientated facade scaling and alternating large, two-storey bay windows makes the rotation of the upper part of the building even more eye-catching. The rotation and set back of the building volumes impart a certain lightness and pay respect to the surrounding buildings in this location by creating new visual axes. Depending on where the viewer is standing, the historical facades on the opposite side of the street are reflected in the windows a calculated optical interplay that, in a visual liaison between old and new, allows the new building to appear as a harmonious component in a historical street front that has developed over time.Save this picture!Advantage has been taken of the upwardly sloping site to cut the ground floor of the building into the terrain by half a storey. In the direction of the courtyard this produces an open space which is partly overhung by the storeys above. Into this space the exposed vaulted rear side of the underground beer cellar has been integrated like a historical ruin. Two ground-floor conference rooms are orientated towards this special outdoor area. A further, significantly smaller, courtyard, recessed on all sides, is sunk into the plinth adjacent to the neighbouring building on Saarbruecker Strasse. This provides light for a further meeting room located in the plinth.Save this picture!Save this picture!The building offers flexible space for 400 workstations in single or multi-tenant use. The ground floor contains a conference centre with a central foyer and a Japanese garden. The roof of the building is covered in greenery. The technical structures on the roof are recessed into its surface so that they cannot be seen from the upper floors of neighbouring buildings. The two basement levels contain spaces for parking bicycles and cars, sanitary facilities for cyclists, e- charging stations, and various technical and storage rooms.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessProject locationAddress:Berlin, GermanyLocation to be used only as a reference.

Disney Dreamlight Valley has so many different recipes that players can cook within the game, and the list is ever-growing, especially with the new expansions that have been released in the past couple of years, including A Rift In Time and The Storybook Vale, which was just released recently, with another on the way this summer.

Fortnite has a long history spanning numerous chapters and seasons, all of which provide varying themes, mechanics, renditions of the Fortnite Island, and more. Looking back through Fortnite's seasons is nostalgic, to say the least, as the game has changed drastically over the years, bringing about stellar items and additions to the loot pool.

The Assassin's Creed franchise has been around for more than 17 years, captivating millions of players and introducing them to this amazing world full of parkour, excitement, and lots of history. While some titles in the franchise are undoubtedly more immersive than others, sometimes its hard to pinpoint which one offers the best gameplay overall.

That's fine, except for a few issues: Those bad boys are pretty expensive for insulated travel tumblers; a lot of the people who want one already have one (or five); and 2.6 million Stanley mugs were recently recalled due to a potential burn hazard. Whether gifting a cup to someone else or broadening your own trendy collection, maybe it's time to start looking elsewhere. Owala FreeSip First up is my favorite tumbler of all time: the Owala FreeSip. I have a green and pink one, but regularly see dazzling color combinations in my travels. These trendy buggers are everywhere and I can't just attribute that belief to some weird Baader-Meinhof phenomenon, since they were everywhere before I even got my hands on one a few months ago. In addition to coming in all kinds of cool color combos, it's just a superior travel cup. It has a push-to-open lid that makes it very difficult to accidentally open or spill. Once open, you have the option of sipping through a spout or using an attached straw. The plastic loop around the lid also doubles as a carrying hook, which is how I've come to notice so many in the wild: People just clip them right on their bags. That makes them more convenient than the Stanley Quencher by a mile. Owala FreeSip Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle $27.94 at Amazon Shop Now Shop Now $27.94 at Amazon Owala also produces a more direct Stanley Quencher competitor in the form of an insulated tumbler that retails for $30.39 and has a 40-ounce capacity. Contigo West Loop I also like the Contigo West Loop. Contigo made the water bottle I had way back in college (because I could buy one with my Barnes & Noble employee discount). Contigo has withstood the test of time, creating mugs and bottles that feel nice in the hand, keep drinks at your preferred temperature, are easy to drink from, and aren't outrageously expensive. Contigo Autoseal West Loop Stainless Steel Travel Mug $24.99 at Amazon Shop Now Shop Now $24.99 at Amazon HydroFlask Travel Tumbler Next up is the tumbler from HydroFlask, which is also very popular. Personally, I only recently learned that HydroFlask is a brand name itself; my friends and I accidentally committed a bit of a genericide years ago, incorrectly calling any to-go tumbler a "hydroflask." As it turns out, that's a good sign, sincelike when people use "Kleenex" to mean "tissue"it implies brand trustworthiness and dominance. Reviews for real-deal HydroFlasks frequently hover around the 4.7-star mark and are based on thousands of ratings, so the general population agrees that this one keeps drinks the temperature you like them and is easy to tote around. Hydro Flask All Around Travel Tumbler Trillium 40 Oz $33.97 at Amazon $39.95 Save $5.98 Shop Now Shop Now $33.97 at Amazon $39.95 Save $5.98 Brmate Era The Brmate Era tumbler seals completely shut. It's not necessarily cheaper than a Stanley, but you're saving money and time by not destroying the inside of your bag in a freak spill accident. The Brumate Era even seals its straw completely. Yes, you can get little straw covers for the Stanley, but they're more decorative than effective. That's not true here. This is one tumbler that is truly spill-proof Brmate Era 40oz Tumbler $44.99 at Amazon Shop Now Shop Now $44.99 at Amazon Yeti Rambler A Yeti 10-ounce Rambler is just $20. It's Yeti, so you know the insulation is top-tier; plus the lid is vacuum-sealed and the opening to the spout uses a magnet, so you can feel confident it won't spill all over you. Thanks to its size, you also know it'll fit in a cup holder, which is kind of a big deal and something at which Stanley Quenchers historically fail.

Which leaves a lot of us wonderingshould we trust the treadmill, or the watch?The answer to this question is the treadmill. The treadmill will always have a better idea than the watch of what your feet are doing. But I dont blame you for doubting everything you see on a gym machines readout. After all, their calorie counts are notoriously inaccurate.Why the treadmill is more accurate than your watch (for distance)Whenever were evaluating accuracy, its important to know whether a device is measuring something directly, or interpreting data to make a guess. In this case, the treadmill is measuring distance, while the watch is guessing at it. (Calories are always interpreted, which is why they are never truly reliable.)Distance is pretty simple: Its the number of miles (or meters) of treadmill belt that passed under your feet while you ran. The treadmill knows how long its belt is, and how fast the motor is running, so its pretty directly measuring how much belt its sending under your feet.(Sticklers will note that technically there is still some interpretation going on here, since the relationship between the motor's performance and how much belt it moves can change over time, which is why treadmill calibration is a thing. But it's still pretty close, and is your best bet for the purposes we discuss here.)Your watch, by contrast, is on your wrist. Theres no way it can know what your feet are doing. It can make some guesses based on how much your wrist is swinging back and forth, and thus pick up a cadence (each arm swing corresponds to one footstep). Youll swing your arms a bit harder and higher when youre running faster, so it can use the oomph in your arm swing to make a guess at the speed youre running. From there, it estimates the distance.How to get the most accurate numbersNeither is guaranteed to be perfect, but the treadmill is a lot more likely to get the right idea. A treadmill can be slightly miscalibrated, and give you a distance thats a smidge off from what you actually ran. But a watch is just riding on your wrist, guessing. Ive noticed that my arms dont swing all that differently when Im running at a fast versus a slow pace.In fact, while following an interval workout on the treadmill on a Garmin Forerunner 265, Ive found that the watch thinks Im going slower than I am during the fast parts. When it buzzes to chide me (Pace low) I can convince it Im in range by pumping my arms a little harder. This isnt really a solution, though. Garmin Forerunner 265 GPS Smartwatch $449.99 at Best Buy Shop Now Shop Now $449.99 at Best Buy Instead of trying to get more accurate numbers from my watch during the run, I approach my treadmill workouts with the knowledge that the following things are accurate:The treadmill speed during the workoutThe treadmill distance at the end of the workoutThe heart rate from my watch (especially if Im using a chest strap)The time from either or both devices (which should be the same if I started them at the same time)I then follow my workouts appropriately. If its a heart-rate-based workout, I let my watch handle everything. (Garmin might tell me to do 32 minutes at 139 to 167 beats per minute. Perfect. All you, Garmin.)But if I want to do a speed- or distance-based workout, I manage that manually, with my human brain. A quarter mile at 7.5 miles per hour, repeated eight times? I boop the buttons on the treadmill accordingly. At the end of the workout, Ill either calibrate (from the watch) or edit the distance on my app to make sure it recorded the correct total distance.

While finding a particular recipe online serves a quick purpose, flipping through a truly excellent cookbook has a magic all its own.I am obsessed with the winter holiday season. It feeds into all of my slightly unhealthy tendenciesshopping, snacking, use of glitterand gives them space to flourish for four to six weeks. One more of my great seasonal passions is holiday entertaining with festive cocktails. Not the brooding G&T or fluttery Aperol spritz but cocktails that function as a treatones that are celebratory, ones that require loved ones to be gathered round. You can probably understand why my choice for Cookbook of the Week, at this point in December, is Gather Around Cocktails.About the bookWhile I chose this with the holiday season in mind, this cocktail book isnt just centered around beverages for winter holidays, but has loads of drinks to celebrate usual and unusual holidays too. You can find the right cocktail for a Groundhog Day party, a Purim Rager, May the Fourth, or even mocktails for Dry January.The author, Aaron Goldfarb, describes himself as a Brooklyn husband and dad who likes to throw a great party. Most of that, I can relate to. (Im a Brooklyn mother of two cat-children.) This cocktail book doesnt waste any time getting to the good stuff, either. Goldfarb has a short preamble in the front, mostly describing what youre about to jump into, and kicks it off with a syrups and sweeteners section that youll be directed back to throughout the pages.Goldfarbs creativity and obvious inclination toward being silly and having fun with your beverages is what really sold me on this collection of repeatable cocktail recipes. In the section For Hanukkah Menorah Lighting, he has a Jelly Doughnut Beertail, which looks tempting, followed up on the next page with The Rum Fire Shots Menorah. It is a stack of shots mimicking the shape of a menorah. They are all on fire. Its incredible. Credit: Allie Chanthorn Reinmann/Gather Around Cocktails A great cocktail book for someone who celebrates every occasionYou know the type: Your mother-in-law who is always throwing a party; your nephew who celebrated National Grilled Cheese Day last month and National Dalmatians with Bowties Day last week. Anyone from New Orleans. There are some folks who can find joy in all occasions, big and small, and this is a book that seems to have been written for them. Obviously, if they like alcohol then theyll get a lot more out of it.The recipes you can expectYou wont find boring recipes in Gather Around Cocktails. There seems to be a little twist with every recipe; something that makes you think, Ooh I didnt expect that. You must expect to put a little work in with making the occasional syrup, and having an adventurous palate will help, as well. Each recipe has the serving size written at the top right, the type of party its matched for (like A New Years Eve Blowout or New Years Day Gathering) on the top left, and a headnote with useful tips, and an easy to read recipe. This formatting makes it a breeze to flip through as you look for your occasion, and if youll need to scale up the recipe or not.Gather Around Cocktails has an array of batch sizes too, from single-servings to massive batchessuch as Ponche Navideo, which serves 16 to 24 cocktails. I rather like those options because having a group of friends over might be a party of four, or a bash for 20. With this book you dont have to math your way up and calculate dilution for a large party; you can just choose among the batched recipes. Likewise, you dont have to reverse it for just one serving.Like eggnog, for example. (Foreshadowing!)The drink I made this weekI dive headfirst into the Christmas season, and surprisingly, this book doesnt start with January holidays; it starts with winter ones. I didnt have to go far to find the most Christmas-y drink: eggnog. Goldfarb kicks things off with his Homemade Eggnog recipe, and it looks fluffy and delicious. Sadly, it is for 10 to 15 people, and I am just one. Well it seems like Aaron Goldfarb has had this happen to him before too. because the next pages are replete with single-serving eggnog recipes and notes about eggnog from other countries.Once I discovered Spiced Mexican Chocolate Nog, I knew I had arrived. Makes one cocktail. Perfect. I scanned the six-part ingredient list and got to work. Im not vegan, and I have no problem drinking raw eggs, but I had an open can of coconut milk in the fridge that Ive been trying to use up. Plus, Masala Chai blend is an ingredient in this cocktail and I simply cannot resist.The only hesitation I had was that the main alcohol used is mezcal, which I dont normally go for. However, I trust coconut milks power to tame harsh flavors so I went along with the recipe. Im glad I did. This is a holiday nog I would gladly make again for myself or batch up for others. The smoky notes from the mezcal play nicely with the chai seasoning and chocolate bitters, while the coconut milk mellows everything out with its fats, and of course, brings in a delicious flavor of its own.Its listed as a good cocktail for a Vegan Christmas Bash, and I couldnt agree more. The coconut milk is beautifully thick and velvety, something youd normally get from the egg and heavy cream. I didnt miss those ingredients at all. Plus, if youre a coconut lover then youre bound to be smitten, vegan or not.How to buy itNow is a great time to grab a copy of Gather Around Cocktails. Do a practice run this coming week and settle on which cocktail best fits your New Years Eve party.
