How these rocks became a Western movie clichéThat stereotypical Western backdrop isn’t typical of the West.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
Towering red rock formations and big blue sky make up the classic backdrop of the American West. But the rocks we see in so many movies aren't typical of the area at all. In fact, they are unique to one place: Monument Valley.
Monument Valley is on the Utah-Arizona border inside the Navajo Nation Reservation, and until the 20th century, it had barely been visited by non-indigenous people. But when John Ford made Stagecoach — the 1939 blockbuster that mainstreamed Western movies and the actor John Wayne — that all changed. More filmmakers followed suit and used the location as their movie backdrop, creating a deep association between Monument Valley’s iconic landscape and the mythic American West.
To read more on the myth of the American West and Western movies, check out Richard Slotkin’s “Gunfighter Nation,” a thorough history of the genre: https://oupress.com/books/9780611/gunfighter-nation

Dropped Out of College to Launch a Rocket into SpaceMeet Operation Space, a team of college students from different schools around the country who are working together to launch a rocket into space. They spent an entire year designing a rocket, working remotely over Slack and Google Hangouts, engineering and building all the parts on their own.
Earlier this year, the Operation Space team finally met-up in real life at Spaceport America, located in a distant town named Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, to build and launch their two-stage rocket into space. Besides getting the rocket to actually launch, Operation Space has a goal of crossing the Karman line, generally accepted as the boundary between Earth’s atmosphere and outer space.
VICE met up with Operation Space to learn about how a bunch of college students built a rocket with no faculty advisors, official funding, or any actual rocket scientists.

Why this creepy melody is in so many moviesThis deadly 13th-century song shows up everywhere.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
Think back to some of the most dramatic scenes in film history — from The Lion King, The Shining, It’s a Wonderful Life. Besides being sad or scary, they have something else in common: the dies irae. “Dies irae” translates from Latin to “Day of Wrath” — it’s a 13th-century Gregorian chant describing the day Catholics believe God will judge the living and the dead and send them to heaven or hell. And it was sung during one specific mass: funerals.
As Catholicism permeated world culture, the melody of the chant was repurposed into symphonies, where it was used to convey a deathly, eerie tone. From there it worked its way into films — and if you don’t already know it, you’ve almost certainly heard it before: It’s played over and over in our scariest and most dramatic cinematic moments.
Here’s Alex Ludwig’s original supercut of movies featuring the dies irae: https://youtu.be/GLGa6vfDTIM
There are so many references to the dies irae in classical music that we couldn’t include. One is Sergei Rachmaninoff’s 1908 “symphonic poem” Isle of the Dead (https://youtu.be/dbbtmskCRUY?t=1032). He was inspired by this painting from Swiss artist Arnold Böcklin that shows a coffin and white figure on their way to a small island (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isle_of_the_Dead_(painting)).
Alex briefly touched on the differences between the ancient dorian mode and the modern minor mode. There’s a ton written online about them, but here’s a good place to start if you’re curious: https://www.musical-u.com/learn/get-familiar-with-the-dorian-mode/#

Memory, explained | from Vox + Netflix's The Mind, ExplainedEpisode one from our new miniseries THE MIND, EXPLAINED, narrated by Emma Stone. Watch now: http://www.netflix.com/mindexplained
THE MIND, EXPLAINED takes a five-episode deep dive into how our brains handle memory, anxiety, psychedelics and dreams. Narrated by Emma Stone.
After nearly a year of labor behind the scenes, we have an announcement for you: Explained is finally back! And during this year, we’ve turned our attention to a crucial question: Why can’t we remember what is in the fridge?
Or more importantly, why can’t we remember most of the details of our own lives? Why do an estimated 1 in 3 people suffer from an anxiety disorder at some point? And why, when we go to bed at night, are we overcome with strange visions? Do our dreams actually mean anything, or serve any purpose?
Our minds often feel like a black box. And the stakes of these questions go far beyond the fridge – to our fundamental sense of reality, and what it means to be human. How can we help ourselves, and each other, when our minds betray us? What can we do to take back some control?
Scientists have figured out so much more than you might realize – and today, we’re diving deep, with 5 brand new episodes narrated by Emma Stone taking you on an adventure through the mind, available today.
Our weekly episodes return, as well, on September 26th. They’ll be right here – http://www.netflix.com/explained where Season 1 also awaits any of you who haven’t seen it yet.
Thanks so much to all of you who watch, support, and even teach the series. If you’re a teacher wondering if you can use the series: yes you can. Here’s Netflix’s policy: https://media.netflix.com/en/only-on-netflix/247606

The gun solution we're not talking aboutUniversal background checks won't fix America's gun crisis. But there's something else that might.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
It seems like after every mass shooting, politicians talk about expanding background checks for gun buyers. But background checks don't actually do a great job of keeping dangerous people from getting guns. What does? A licensing system, where before you can buy a gun, you need a license from the state.

Make Your Own Rules at Skatopia, the Skateboarding Mecca in OhioSkatopia is 88 acres of woods and farmland turned skatepark in Meigs County, Ohio. Known for anarchy and destruction, the land consists of two indoor bowls, a full pipe, a concrete outdoor bowl and The Museum of Skateboarding History - which houses more than 12,000 vintage skateboards.
Since suffering a traumatic injury, Founder and Owner, Brewce Martin now faces a changing of the guard as his son returns home and sees Skatopia moving forward in a new direction.
VICE travels to Skatopia during their busiest weekend of the year, Bowl Bash 2019, to tell the history of the family behind the skatepark - how this father and son manage to see eye to eye when it comes to the family legacy and how it might be emblematic of the changes in skate culture today.

Meet the Mexico City Skateboarder Who Takes Inspiration From The Streets“It’s hard to express myself with people. But with skateboarding, I express who I am. Very aggressive, and very crazy.” Itzel Granados will slam as hard as the best of them to get a trick. Her style has a powerful grittiness that reflects the sprawling Mexico City streets she grew up skating in. As Itzel rises up in amateur rankings, it’s her relentless, totally fearless drive that sets her apart. Her unique approach to attacking spots comes from seeing the possibilities in all things, and going for it. We spent the day skating through Mexico City with Itzel, hunting for spots and making our own. For Itzel, skateboarding is inseparable from self-expression. “I think creativity is really important, because it helps you stand out.”
Boardly is a video series that spotlights people from all walks of life who share one thing in common: a passion for skateboarding that has shaped who they are in equally different, yet unique ways. In Season 2 of Boardly, Style Notes, we explore what skateboarding means to six emerging voices. More than a sport, skating is a powerful form of self-expression. An identity. An art. Above all else it is raw creativity in its purest form.

The chart that predicts recessionsA chart called the "yield curve" has predicted every US recession over the last 50 years. Now it might be saying another one is coming.
Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO
Economic experts are starting to warn that a US recession is becoming more likely because of something called the "yield curve." So what's the yield curve? What does it show? And why is it bad if it "inverts?" We visualized the yield curve over the past four decades, to show why it's so good at predicting recessions, and what it actually means when the curve changes.
Read more about the yield curve:

We caught a cosmic ray, one of science’s biggest mysteriesCosmic rays are hitting us all the time. What are they?
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
You may think the greatest mysteries of the universe exist way out there, at the edge of a black hole. But they actually surround us all the time — and even sail right through our bodies.
One such mystery is cosmic rays, radiation from space made of tiny bits of atoms. They’re not harmful to humans, but they’re perplexing physicists, who don’t know where they’re coming from. They’re super powerful — many are much too powerful to have originated from our sun or an exploding star.

The scandalous painting that helped create modern artWestern art followed the same rules for centuries. Until Olympia.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
For centuries, the art world was controlled by the Academy of Fine Arts in Paris. They dictated how art should look and had the power to make or break an artist’s career. Getting into their yearly exhibition, the Paris Salon, was like an express pass to success. But in the late 1800s, artists started to push back against the Academy’s rules, which changed the landscape of the art world forever.

Unidentified Corpses On The Streets Of Pakistan’s Biggest CityIn an abandoned building on the outskirts of Karachi, a man dies, anonymous and alone. He does not have a phone or any paperwork on his person, nothing at all to indicate his name or address. A passer-by spots this body, slumped lifeless against a wall, and immediately knows who to call: the Edhi Foundation. Within minutes, the organisation dispatches an ambulance to collect the corpse, and the work of trying to find out who this anonymous man is can begin.
WATCH NEXT: Solving Cold Case Murders with Decomposing Bodies and Forensic Science -- https://youtu.be/lqRo23h01qQ
This man’s lonely death and the mystery he leaves behind is sadly unremarkable. Each year, approximately 3000 unidentified corpses are found on the streets of Karachi, an ever-expanding mega-city in southern Pakistan. Sometimes they are drug addicts or migrant workers who came to the big city in search of a better life; sometimes they are the victims of the sectarian clashes or gang violence that give Karachi its reputation for violence. In this tightly packed city of over 21 million people, some get lost amongst the heaving mass of brick and bodies, ending up destitute and alone. They are lawaris: without an owner.
After his collection by the ambulance, the anonymous man is taken to the Edhi mortuary, one of only two functional cold storage units in the whole city. The staff here are constantly exposed to death, dealing with the victims of bomb attacks and gunfire, as well as stepping in to bear the financial burden of burial for families who are too poor to afford it. At the mortuary, the anonymous man is absorbed into a system that is set up to try to find his loved ones and, even if they cannot be tracked down, to restore him some dignity in death. The Edhi mortuary employees take fingerprints, search the national biometric database, and make phone calls - all the while dealing with a steady flow of people coming into the mortuary to search for their lost loved ones. Sometimes lawaris bodies are reunited with their families, a raw emotional collision of grief and relief. If loved ones are not tracked down, Edhi staff take on the role of family, washing the body and giving full Islamic burial rites at a funeral attended by staff members.

Why the US drinking age is 21Why is the US drinking age 21? And how did it happen? In this episode of Vox Almanac, Vox’s Phil Edwards explores the history of the somewhat unusual way the drinking age became 21.

After prohibition — the total ban on alcohol — many states established a minimum legal drinking age of 21. But that began to change after the voting age was lowered to 18. Many states followed by lowering their drinking ages, which changed the landscape for the entire country.
By the 1980s, this unusual patchwork of drinking ages started to be seen as a problem, especially by activist organizations like MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Drivers) and RID (Remove Intoxicated Drivers). They lobbied for a 21-year-old minimum legal drinking age, and President Ronald Reagan supported the cause. His mechanism for enabling a national law? Threatening to withhold Federal Highway funding to states that didn’t comply.
It was an unpredictable strategy for an official typically hesitant to use federal power over the states, and the practice was eventually challenged in the Supreme Court, where it was upheld.
Beyond the political clash, it’s a look at how roads shape policy.

Why the US and Iran are fighting over this tiny waterwayThe Strait of Hormuz, “the jugular of the global economy," has become a useful bargaining chip for Iran.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow waterway that lies between Iran and Oman. This 21 mile-wide passage supports 20% of the world’s oil supply. A closure of this waterway could send the global economy into a tailspin.
In recent months, several oil tankers have been seized, attacked and harassed. These oil tankers — and this narrow water passage — are at the center of the conflict between the US and Iran. It's a conflict that spans decades and has the potential to escalate in one of the world’s most important oil chokepoints.

Miami’s Underground Racing: From the Streets to the TrackStreet racing has long been popular in Miami with a variety of groups, some who gather at undisclosed locations off U.S. Highway 27 and others who opt for conspicuous city landmarks. However, the rise in fatal accidents and the risk of getting caught has driven some people to get off the streets and onto the track.
VICE travels to Miami to take a look inside the illegal street racing scene and the legal alternatives some drivers are turning to.

Where Sicko Mode's weirdest moments came fromTracing the roots of Jamaican dub music.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
"Sicko Mode" by Travis Scott was an unexpected chart-topper. It sounds more like three songs than one. Its disjointed, other-worldly effects, echos, and song structure are a far cry from the traditional pop songs we're used to, but it's in these off-kilter moments that we get glimpses of a musical culture and genre that was centered around sonic experimentation and innovation, and has influenced everything from punk, rock, and pop for nearly half a century: Jamaican dub.

Why Route 66 became America’s most famous roadRoute 66 is iconic. Why?

Route 66 has gained a reputation as the United States of America’s most famous road. How did that happen, and why does it still matter?
In this episode of Vox Almanac, Vox’s Phil Edwards explores the history of the road and the textures of its present, from the road itself to the roadside attractions along the way, to the people who enjoy its diversions and those who help maintain them. It reveals a road that’s changed a lot over the decades but remains vital in unexpected ways.
When Cyrus Avery helped found Route 66 in the 1920s, he strived to create a road that would connect the Midwest to the West, and he resorted to promotional tricks and wheeling and dealing to get it done. The road quickly became a key route for migrants escaping the dust bowl and depression, forming its early reputation as “the Mother Road.”
That’s because it’s a road that’s more than a strip of concrete (or gravel, or dirt). It’s a historical document of everyone who’s traveled on it — as the many contributions from Vox’s YouTube subscribers show, that keeps it going even as the interstates run alongside it.
The number of Route 66 resources out there is huge, but we found these particularly helpful.

What the US gets wrong about minimum wageRaising the minimum wage doesn’t have to be so hard.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
The American federal minimum wage hasn’t gone up in a decade. That’s the longest wait since the US first created a minimum wage in 1938. Today, Congress is debating whether they should raise it again. But the fact that Congress has to debate it at all is … kind of weird.
In the US, unlike other developed countries, the minimum wage is a political issue. That means it gets raised irregularly and unpredictably. And it causes a bunch of problems for American workers and businesses.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Favelas are slums or shanty towns within or around Brazil's cities. Despite being neglected by the government, favelas have maintained self-sustainability. However, this also breeds organized crime, creating a dangerous environment for its residents.
Tucka has become a key figure within her community through covering up gang-related tattoos and scars. VICE follows her to explore the beauty within one of Brazil's most dangerous neighborhoods.

Over time, their descendants have begun to experiment and introduce new ideas, from Cajun crawfish to brisket bánh mì (and even a phở-rrito). We explore the best spots in the city to shop and eat like a true local.

We measured pop music’s falsetto obsessionFrom Justin Timberlake to the Bee Gees, we charted the popularity of men singing high.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
It’s nearly impossible to turn on the radio and not hear a male artist singing really high. Likely he’s a tenor, and more often than not he’ll sing in falsetto. Think Justin Bieber, The Weeknd, Bruno Mars, Drake, Charlie Puth, Shawn Mendes, Adam Lavine, Sam Smith ... the list goes on and on and on.
This isn’t a trend — it has been the status quo for decades.
Using the data diving know-how of The Pudding, and drawing on the expertise of Anthony Roth Costanzo, a professional opera singer, I dig into the world of the high male vocal range by tracking how pervasive it really is across the decades.

A Hard Look at “Natural” Boner Pills and the War With the Convenience Stores Selling ThemThis video originally aired on the VICE News YouTube channel on August 1, 2019. We liked it and wanted to share with you guys here.
With wild names like “Rhino 69,” “Black Mamba,” and “Mojo Nights,” so-called “natural” sexual enhancement supplements are a fixture behind the counters of bodegas, gas stations, corner stores, and delis across the country.
They're also at the center of a nationwide legal battle being waged by a Texas supplements company called Outlaw Laboratory.
Since 2017, Outlaw has sent legal letters to small businesses demanding they stop selling the supplements, and pay a settlement of as much as $14,000, or get sued.
And Outlaw has followed through, suing hundreds of stores, as well as several distributors, in at least six states, charging that retailers are selling dangerous and deceptively labeled “natural” sex supplements that may contain illegal pharmaceuticals that the FDA has issued public health notifications over. Outlaw is also claiming that its own sexual enhancement supplement, “TriSteel,” has been damaged by unfair competition.
“I remember seeing these products in liquor stores and just kind of didn't think anything about it,” Robert Tauler, a lawyer representing Outlaw in many of their cases, told VICE News. “But in reality it's a national criminal conspiracy taking place in front of everyone's face.”
But lawyers representing the small businesses say Outlaw’s tactics are nothing more than a shakedown of small businesses.
Lawyer Mark Poe is representing many San Diego stores and is fighting back against Outlaw with a class-action countersuit.
“As we started looking at that demand letter, it became clear to us that the demand letter itself was an instance of mail fraud,” he said. “The demand letter sets forth a number of false statements and then demands money from the stores. That's fraud. You cannot make fraudulent statements in exchange for demand of money.”

Are Multivitamins Wasting $40 Billion a Year? | Let Lee ExplainSpending hundreds of dollars a month on multivitamins and probiotics? Turns out you were probably wasting your money. Unless you're on an arctic expedition or running marathons (or pregnant) you probably don't need to be eating those multis. Lee Adams explains.

Why so many suburbs look the sameSo many suburbs have similar plans. Why?

In this episode of Vox Almanac, Vox’s Phil Edwards investigates the system behind the shape of the suburbs.
If you’ve visited a suburb, you’ve probably noticed a similar look: same curving streets; same cul de sacs. It’s not an accident. In fact, this appearance of the suburbs is part of the Federal Housing Administration’s plan.
In the 1930s, the Federal Housing Administration, or FHA, was the financial engine behind most home development. To ensure their investments were safe ones, they strongly recommended that builders and developers comply with the ideals they set. Those regulations aligned closely with the values of the time, including segregation and a burgeoning car culture.
These rules encouraged suburbs with winding streets and cul de sacs — aesthetically pleasing designs that led to sprawl and made a car a necessity. Even though the enforcement mechanisms have changed over time, we still live in a culture shaped by the FHA’s ideal suburban design.
If you want to learn more, there are a couple of resources:
Streets and the Shaping of Towns and Cities by Michael Southworth and Eran Ben-Joseph
https://www.amazon.com/Streets-Shaping-Cities-Michael-Southworth/dp/1559639164
Eran Ben-Joseph spoke to me about his book, which provides a great overview of suburban planning. It also has more crucial detail about street widths, which influenced car culture.
FHA Underwriting Manual
https://www.huduser.gov/portal/sites/default/files/pdf/Federal-Housing-Administration-Underwriting-Manual.pdf
If you’re curious to wade into some primary documents, this underwriting manual from 1938 is a good place to start.

How Paranoid Schizophrenia Impacts My LifeAllie Burke first started seeing shadows when she was three years old but it wasn’t until she was in her mid-twenties that she was formally diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.
When it comes to mental illness, the day to day realities, challenges, and symptoms of living with these conditions are as varied people who have them. VICE is spending time with people who live with mental illness everyday to get a first hand perspective of what their lives look like and how they live with mental illness.

The dirty politics behind an American tall taleWas Davy Crockett a sellout? And does it matter?

In this episode of History Club, Vox’s Phil Edwards asks Coleman Lowndes a question: Was this American legend really as great as he was cracked up to be?
Davy Crockett’s become an American tall tale, but he was a real person and member of Congress. That’s where things get complicated. His incredible feats of bear-killing and frontier exploring intersected with a political career that was catalyzed by central banking.
When Crockett was alive, Andrew Jackson was president, and Jackson was embroiled in a battle over the Second Bank of the United States. That battle eventually resulted in the creation of a new political party — the Whigs — and the Whigs decided Crockett could help advance their cause.
In a strange way, it’s possible to trace the American icon and baby boomer fad back to this banking battle. And it says something about celebrity, politics, and how Americans imagine their history.

Brighton Zeuner Sees Skateboarding As Space To CreateAt age 15, Brighton Zeuner is already a trailblazer in skateboarding; pushing the boundaries of the sport and inspiring a new generation of young skateboarders. She’s the youngest ever X-Games Gold medalist (two-time gold medalist, to be exact), as well as the youngest skateboarder to ever compete in the event. As she prepares herself for Tokyo in 2020, the journey is personal. For her, skateboarding is about freedom. “The beauty of skateboarding is that you can be yourself in it.” From the park to the streets, skateboarding has given Brighton an outlet to come into her own. And it’s inspired her to explore the world beyond the park: whether it’s songwriting or clothing design. In this episode of Boardly, we head to SoCal to meet up with Brighton to look at how creativity helps her keep the stoke, on and off the board.
Boardly is a video series that spotlights people from all walks of life who share one thing in common: a passion for skateboarding that has shaped who they are in equally different, yet unique ways. In Season 2 of Boardly, Style Notes, we explore what skateboarding means to six emerging voices. More than a sport, skating is a powerful form of self-expression. An identity. An art. Above all else it is raw creativity in its purest form.

All student debt in the US, visualizedWhat if all of this debt was canceled? This is what that would look like.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
Student loan debt has increased exponentially in the past few decades. So now, some Democratic presidential candidates propose canceling those debts — all $1.6 trillion of it. But is this a good idea? Who exactly does it benefit?
For more on student loan debt, read this Vox explainer on Elizabeth Warren's plan: https://www.vox.com/2019/4/22/18509196/elizabeth-warren-debt-free-college

The Right-Wing Latinos of Miami: Proud Boys and RefugeesThe Latino demographic in the US has long been seen as a fixture of the Democratic party, especially in light of the immigration controversy on the Southern border. However, in the coastal city of Miami, Cuban exiles and their descendants - and more recently, Venezuelan refugees - are defying this trend. Many embrace Trump for his denouncement of Socialism & his tough stance on immigration, despite its profound impact on fellow Hispanics.
VICE went South Florida to embed with both Venezuelan refugees and rightwing Latino activists, such as the local chapter of the Proud Boys, to learn more about how they reconcile their identities with a movement many see as unsympathetic to the plight of more marginalized members of the community.

Where Manhattan’s grid plan came fromManhattan is famous for its grid — so famous that people take pictures of the way the sun shines through it. But the origin of that grid wasn’t always certain — and not everybody is a fan.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
In this episode of Vox Almanac’s Road Trip edition, Phil Edwards explores the history of the New York City grid, with detours to Philadelphia, Savannah, and Washington, DC. Early city planning around the turn of the 19th century was a contentious and undecided discipline with lots of options and disagreement.
New York City was particularly chaotic and unplanned at the time, after years of catering to developers and, at the same time, ignoring their requests for a more sane city plan. That made the introduction of a new plan in the 1800s a more urgent matter — and a reasonable time to introduce a plan that lacked many of the artistic flourishes of contemporary city plans.
New York was all about building, and building fast — and it’s still that way today.
Want to learn more? The two most helpful papers we found were these:
“The grid as city plan: New York city and laissez‐faire planning in the nineteenth century” by Peter Marcuse and “The Greatest Grid: the New York Plan of 1811” by Edward K. Spann.
You can also find copies of a lot of early maps of New York via the Library of Congress and New York Public Library.

Exposing Celebrities' Fake Sneakers and the Counterfeit Hype Economy: Yeezy BustaWhat began as an small Instagram account in high-school spiraled into a full-fledged business and career for Yeezy Busta — a sneakerhead who, after being gifted a pair of fake Yeezys in 2015, trained himself to became a skilled authenticator of real versus fake sneakers.
His fame grew as he began to expose and call out celebrities wearing fake Yeezys on his YouTube channel and Instagram page, while simultaneously authenticating Yeezys for fans and clients alike.
Though controversial, Yeezy Busta states that his message is to spread information and education on how to spot fake sneakers to help stop the support of an illegal trade — and how to not get scammed.

Why the US has so many tornadoesTornado Alley experiences more tornadoes than anywhere else in the world — why?
This video is presented by CuriosityStream: https://www.curiositystream.com/Vox
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
The United States experiences more tornadoes than any other country, averaging over 1,200 per year. Most of those twisters are touching down in the central part of the country in an area called “Tornado Alley.” While the boundaries of this tornado hotbed are disputed, there’s no denying that something is going on here — and it all has to do with geography.
The map we use in this video for Tornado Alley boundaries is from NOAA — you can find that and more information on their website: https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/climate-information/extreme-events/us-tornado-climatology/tornado-alley
Information on tornado averages and trends can also be found at NOAA:
https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/climate-information/extreme-events/us-tornado-climatology/trends
You may have noticed on our graphic around the one-minute mark that many of the Southeastern US states are prone to tornadoes as well. This is because they’re part of an area called “Dixie Alley.” The main difference between this area and Tornado Alley that tornadoes in Dixie Alley are more likely to touch down in the fall, while Tornado Alley experiences twisters in the early spring. This happens for the reasons outlined in the video above. This article offers a fairly compelling comparison of the two:
http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.660.5241&rep=rep1&type=pdf
Finally, this video offered a simplified explanation of a really complex weather phenomenon. This National Geographic article does a really great job breaking it down again and also offers information on why it’s so hard to track and predict tornadoes:

The dark history of "gasoline baths" at the borderAn alarming US border policy forced fumigations on migrants at the US-Mexico border.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
In 1917, American health officials launched a campaign to use noxious, often toxic chemicals to delouse immigrants seeking to enter at the US-Mexico border. The same practice had caused a fire in an El Paso jail the year before and killed 27 people.
17-year-old Juárez maid Carmelita Torres refused to go through it, sparking a protest of thousands of Mexicans at the El Paso border. Although they briefly shut down the border, the campaign would continue for decades -- and go on to inspire Nazi scientists.

Wanted for Drug Trafficking: Life on the RunQuintin “Q Nhannaz” Walters is ready to stop running. As a young kid, growing up in the spotlight of his parents — the late Buffy the Human Beatbox from The Fat Boys and rapper Queen Pen, featured artist on the classic song “No Diggity” — he left his home in New York to start new roots in California. In an effort to survive on his own, he began selling drugs and self-medicating to cope with his struggles.
In 2015, the Sacramento Police Department issued a warrant for his arrest, accusing him of drug trafficking and unlawful transportation with intent to distribute. When Q got word the police were looking for him, he went under the radar, always on the move, never staying in one place for too long.
VICE meets up with Q to get a glimpse into what life on the run has been like and explore why he’s ready to stop running.

Glamping with Thomas Edison and Henry FordIt’s time to go road-tripping with some men who ran the world.
Join the Vox Video Lab: http://bit.ly/video-lab
This is episode one of Vox Almanac’s new season all about roads — and this is a classic road trip to kick it off with.
Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, Harvey Firestone, and John Burroughs became famous as “the Vagabonds” — a traveling group that took to the (primitive) roads to see the country and make the occasional business deal. Their exploits captured the imagination of the entire country, and it even involved a few naps.
Along the way, the unique foursome chopped trees, explored, and ate in style (while catering to the film crew they brought with them). The resulting output was a mix of PR and good old-fashioned fun. Even President Warren G. Harding joined along at one point just to see what the Vagabonds were up to.

Recovering After Hurricane Harvey's $125 Billion of Damages - Home Again: HoustonIn September of 2017 Hurricane Harvey caused $125 billion in damage, primarily from catastrophic rainfall. More than 30,000 people were displaced from their homes in Houston, due to the floods. Porfirio De Leon, a father of seven, was one of them. His home was fully destroyed by the flooding and has been displaced ever since.
In Home Again: Houston, we visit the Gulf Coast city to take a look at the personal stories of those still rebuilding a year and a half after the record rainfall put the city underwater, and meet the organizations and individuals working to get people back into their homes and prepare for the future by rebuilding resiliently.
We also look at how REALTORS® are a trusted ally in helping new and experienced homeowners alike navigate these situations and advising them when it comes to buying a home in these high-risk areas.

How to win the Tour de FranceIt's all about the climbs.
Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO
The Tour de France is the most prominent cycling race in the world. It’s now in its 109th edition and it’s being called the ‘Highest in History’ because there are more climbs than ever before. This is important because the climbs are where the race is won and lost. The best riders rely on their teammates to get them through the long, flat, and hilly stages, before they take on the mountain stages on their own. These are the hardest and most brutal stages of the race - but they are exactly what makes the Tour de France famous.

India’s government has strict laws surrounding cow slaughter because cows are sacred in Hinduism. Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized the need to make sure India’s cows are protected and some state governments followed suit by opening more cow shelters and ordering more police crackdowns. But some took cow protection into their own hands.
Cow vigilantes started patrolling neighborhoods looking to physically punish those who were allegedly harboring cows, consuming cows or even transporting cows. In most cases, the victims of these mob beatings were Muslim.
This Vox Borders episode looks at why violence over cows increased since India’s elections in 2014.

The Urban Laboratory in the Desert | Supported by Marriott BonvoyArcosanti is a countercultural exploration of what the world might look like if we built our lives with nature, rather than over it. From ambient heating and cooling to an artisan community influenced by local landscapes, this “urban laboratory” is a prototype for a society that exists in harmony with nature.
