REVIEW – The setup that you see in the opening photo of this review is one I have used for many years. Over the years I have swapped out monitors and mics and other equipment, but the “glue” that allowed seamless connectivity and access has always been a dock. For the past 3 years, I

REVIEW – LivBars are made of real seeds, grains, fruits and flavorings, few of which exceed 3 syllables. ‘Himalayan’ is no actual violation. It’s the absence of chemicals and preservatives that I appreciate. Our bodies know what to do with real food. I took a taste of the Crowd Pleaser 12 pack assortment of LivBars.

REVIEW – I really don’t like using the speakerphone on my iPhone, because I don’t like how others sound when THEY’RE using a speakerphone. I don’t want to sound like I’m “in a cave” or distant. Maybe the Beyerdynamic SPACE speakerphone will put those concerns to rest for me. What is it? I know Beyerdynamic

REVIEW – Time is a funny thing; I have memories of the middle school classroom and staring at whatever the teacher was showing on the overhead projector, which was a monstrous machine in both weight and noise. Cumbersome, they always occupied a cart with wheels created out of the desire to curb workman’s compensation cases,
