If you have the money and you’re big into exercise you may want to consider buying an Oculus headphone, or the like. Research by the University of Kent shows that virtual reality may lower your pain levels and increase performance when exercising or engaging in general physical activity. Participants using VR reported a pain intensity […]

Cannabis is ‘in’ and the stigma of weed three-quarters ‘out.’ The cannabis business is booming, following cannabis’ medical and recreational legalization in 29 states in America and the District of Columbia. A study released in June 2017, shows there are about 165,000 to 235,000 people working in jobs related to the weed industry. This means […]

Almost everyone uses social media in one form or another. I can’t think of anyone I know who doesn’t have some presence online, whether it be a professional account on LinkedIn, a satirical account on Twitter, or a personal account on Facebook. Social media has become so ingrained in our society that its importance often […]

On Thursday, the American Justice Department announced plans to charge a North Korean spy with hacking into the computers and servers of Sony Pictures Entertainment in 2014. The hacking, which many believe occurred as retaliation for a film starring Seth Rogen and James Franco about a plot to assassinate the North Korean leader, reportedly wiped […]

As a kid, I loved the Jack Ryan movies because they seemed like they offered more realism than Ryan’s British counterpart over at MI6. While Bond was bedding women and drinking martinis, Ryan was sitting at conference room tables, using Harrison Ford’s trademark pointing gesture or Alec Baldwin’s steely blue eyes to convey the drama […]

Even the movies we watch that are “based on” or “inspired by” true stories tend to bend the facts of the tale around a more logical (or marketable) narrative that audiences would be more likely to get behind, but some common tropes have become so […]

It happened. The website that I’ve poured just about every waking hour into for the better part of the last two years is gone, and in its place, we find this shiny new bit of internet real estate. The responses I’ve had come my way following the change have ranged from excited support to outraged […]

You probably know the image — a worn and weathered man with salt-and-pepper hair, a gruff 5 o’ clock shadow, and that thousand-yard stare emanating from his aged, experienced eyes. He’s been fighting since he was 18-years-old, and the actor is probably in his 40s. He’s the leading man in the vast majority of action […]

The internet is an incredible tool, and it gives us the ability to see things happening on the other side of the planet. That can mean text from those who are there on the ground, pictures, or even video — these things are often anything but entertaining, but they give us an idea as to […]

If you haven’t seen the movie, don’t spoil it here — watch it first, then come back. There are a substantial amount of films with the same rough outline: a protagonist is caught up in some violent conflict, is forced to stay or live among a more “tribal” people, and learns that what many consider […]
