The Fagradalsfjall volcano erupted on the Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland in 2021.Miguel Morenatti/Associated Press 8. What do you do when a volcano erupts for the first time in centuries? Scoop up a bit of lava, of course. When the Fagradalsfjall volcano in Iceland erupted last year after 781 years of dormancy, a helicopter flew out to the site and did just that. Some samples were distributed to labs, which, after testing, sent back unexpected results: [The lava was full of crystals](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkvaM-P0TtaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8wNy8yMi9zY2llbmNlL3ZvbGNhbm8tZmFncmFkYWxzZmphbGwtbWFudGxlLW1hZ21hLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyMjA3MjImaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9Njc0MTcmbmw9ZXZlbmluZy1icmllZmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9OTkzNDEmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmLVPh7bYtbY8QJSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~). More samples collected over six months found that the lava crystal contained a wide range of material from different parts of the mantle, the amalgamate layer between the Earth’s crust and core, painting a more vivid picture of what contributes to volcanic eruptions. A day at the beach is made all the more enjoyable with a thoughtfully packed cooler.Christopher Testani for The New York Times. Food Stylist: Simon Andrews. Prop Stylist: Paige Hicks. 9. The sand, the heat, the lugging — packing a beach cooler does not have to be stressful. Stacking multishaped containers neatly into a cooler for a sun-filled day at the beach is like playing Tetris.

A statue of George Breet has stood at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City since 2001.Steve Hebert for The New York Times 10. And finally, do you have a statue?

All will be recognized in the gallery with a plaque measuring 15.5 inches by 10.75 inches, the standard size for all Hall of Famers since the first induction ceremony in 1939. But for some players, the real mark of success is the statue. Hall of Famers all have plaques in Cooperstown, N.Y., but only some of them have been honored with statues around the country. It has become something of an inside joke among players, mocking those who do not have their glory cast in bronze. There is no vote for statue worthiness, no formal process for attaining one. It takes a certain transcendence, in addition to sheer excellence on the field. [See which baseball player has a statue — and which does not.](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkvaM-P0TmaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8wNy8yMi9zcG9ydHMvYmFzZWJhbGwvaGFsbC1vZi1mYW1lLXN0YXR1ZXMuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NyZlbWM9ZWRpdF9uZV8yMDIyMDcyMiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD02NzQxNyZubD1ldmVuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD05OTM0MSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYtU-Htti1tjxAlIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) Have an out-of-the-park weekend.
