The way you respond to a grizzly attack could determine if you become a scavenger's next meal. (272447 from Pixabay/)This story originally featured on Field & Stream.My grandmother Inez used to stuff towels under her bedroom door whenever I came to visit.

But unless you have a totally innovative idea that will revolutionize the way we communicate forever, there’s two things you can do to make email a bit less awful for everyone.First, ask yourself whether...

Cooler temperatures in any room. (Fernando Hernandez via Unsplash/)Evaporative coolers, also known as swamp coolers, are environmentally friendly, cost-effective ways to make your home and outdoor areas more comfortable.

Keep your gear safe on the go.

For $150, this Genesis department store bike has full-suspension and disc brakes to make it look very similar to much pricier rides. But there are key differences. (Walmart/)At first glance, it can be tough to tell why some bikes will set you back just $150 while others cost as much as a nice used car.
