Published by

HELSINKI, May 27, 2015 /CNW/ – Every global traveler knows how jet lag feels. It kills productivity. Jet lag is the sleepy mid-day meeting when it’s difficult to keep focused, and it’s waking up at the wrong time in a hotel room, not able to re-charge. Jet lag is getting back home a week later, not able to be a great company and partner with friends and family, or to perform at work. HumanCharger (www.humancharger.com), the revolutionary new travel companion spells the end for jet lag by helping travelers make softer landings to new time zones – twice as fast.

Off The Beaten Track – Auburn Indiana, An Auto Museum Town In The Heart Of America

Published by

Last year we made a special trip to Battle Ground, Indiana (less than an hour from downtown Indianapolis – off Interstate 65, just outside of Lafayette), to visit one thing that had been on our ‘bucket list’ since the day we met…Wolf Park [WolfPark.org]. It took us 8 hours of driving to get there – but it was worth every minute. Read about our experience at Wolf Park HERE What we didn’t expect on our journey was the wonderful city of Auburn, Indiana. We stopped in Auburn for a coffee break – only to discover there are a number of auto and air museums there, if you love cars and/or planes – this is your mecca. You simply MUST take the time to visit Auburn, or even make it an actual trip destination.

Naked Filter – Clean Water For Everybody

Published by

Water is the single most important thing we humans need – other than clean air of course. Unfortunately too many people take it for granted. For example the last time you went through airport security going to or from the U.S. – how many huge garbage pails did you see that were full of peoples confiscated water bottles, most of them full? What a complete waste of water – and money! And what are just about every one of those people going to do when they’re done being frisked and molested? They’re going to go and buy extremely over-priced bottled water – in the ‘safe area” of the airport. There has to be a better way… and there is. But it’s not just a better and cheaper way – it’s revolutionary in its design and application.
