Holiday Shopping
‘Tis the season. Shopping season, that is. Choosing just the thing for this nephew or that in-law is tough. Nobody wants to throw money away on gifts that aren’t appreciated. We’re wandering down the tech aisle this year because who doesn’t love tech? Gadgets and wearables and smart everything, oh...

What?! Who takes vacations in autumn? We’re all exhausted from summer travels (not to mention kids at home 24/7). In the autumn, we spend our days at work and our nights planning our holiday and winter vacations. Well, turns out that autumn is the perfect vacation season. Everyone else is...

Don’t Let Road Trips Throw You A Curve
Road trips are escapes from the routine at the speed of life. Americans and cars go together like apple pie and ice cream. We enjoy our cars, especially for road trips! Many of us don’t typically experience carsickness, but you throw in enough curves and hills as we motor toward...

Europe In Summer
Europe calls to Americans — maybe it’s the history, or perhaps the romance. Whatever it is, its pull is nearly irresistible. Those of us who suffer from motion sickness find the pull isn’t as strong given the nausea, retching, and vomiting we experience when traveling by car, plane, train, boat...

5 VR Necessities
Virtual Reality (VR) is a fascinating place because it can be any place you want. Sounds simple, but once experienced, you want more. The VR world is exploding with growth. And peripherals, or accessories, are growing right along with it. The Unlimited Hand looks like a cuff you put on...

Star Wars Day
“May the 4th be with you” is THE pun from Star Wars’ heyday. Granted, it’s an oldie, given that the original Star Wars debuted in 1977, but who cares? It’s Star Wars, for crying out loud. We love it because sci-fi is where you’ll find the dreams of tech that...

Tulip Time – Road Trip!
If you’re a tulip lover, this is your time of year. Tulips are showing off all over the country, and that says “road trip” to us. Americans have always been in love with cars and winding roads, particularly when the weather is fine. We found tulip festivals dotted around the...

Thank You, Doctors!
Did you know there’s a day set aside for doctors? In 1990, President Bush signed into law that 30 March 1991 would be “National Doctors Day.” A version of this holiday has been going on since the ‘30s, with a red carnation being the gift of choice for your favorite...

VR – Not Just For Games
Virtual Reality (VR) is tops with gamers, but it’s also used in ways unimagined just a few short years ago. VR simulations in the military enhance the training one goes through to become a medic or a pilot, a tank driver or even a combatant. Businesses use VR simulations to...

Say Yes To Travel, No To Motion Sickness
Traveling adds depth and perspective to our lives. Saying yes to travel opportunities is fun! But motion sickness, the kind some of us experience when we fly, or ride in a car or boat, can be enough to stop us from going across town—forget about going across the country (or...

Ski Lifts, Elevators, And Motion Sickness, Oh My!
Motion sickness happens when one part of your body senses that you’re moving, and another part of your body does not sense movement. Symptoms may include nausea, cold sweats, vomiting, and possibly a headache. It’s never fun. For instance, when you’re riding in an elevator your inner ear senses movement,...

Motion Sickness – Be Prepared!
When you hear the words “motion sickness,” what scenario comes to mind? Maybe for you, it’s riding in the backseat of a car and getting that nauseous feeling. Oh, and don’t forget the cold sweat blooming all over. Or it’s sitting in a boat at anchor, the constant waves making...
