Through the Wormhole With Morgan Freeman – Season 2 (DVD Set)

I found that one of the drawbacks about the first season of Through the Wormhole was that the concepts that were covered in that season were a little bit on the elementary side. However, I feel that there has been progression towards more complex theories and schools of thought. This means that the second season of Through the Wormhole is more interesting; Morgan Freeman immediately gets to the nitty gritty…

TDK BA100 In Ear Balancing Headphones

There are a number of different possibilities for an individual to use the TDK BA100 headphones. I believe that they will run circles around other headphones when plugged into a laptop, and they are light enough to work well when one is working out or is on the treadmill. The balanced aspect to the headphones affords this versatility, while the headphones durability makes the list price of $199 seem downright…

Glutazorb by All-American EFX Review

Glutazorb is concentrated L-Glutamine. Glutamine is an amino acid, and it is present in high amounts in the human body. Supplementing with L-Glutamine can cleanse one body of the toxins that build up on a daily basis, but it is incredibly important for those on a workout regimen. This is due to the fact that it increases the quality of one’s immune system response, reducing one’s chance of picking up…

Glenny’s Soy Crisps Review

Soy crisps, at least those that Glenny’s put out, are a much better form of rice cakes. They possess a better crunch, a stronger flavor profile, and Glenny’s has provided buyers with a tremendous amount of variation in their line. I would strongly recommend Glenny’s Soy Crisps to anyone that is looking to better their diet. There may be Ranch and Cheddar flavors, but the healthy quality of the Soy…

Human Kinetics provides the most cutting-edge body and workout titles, no matter what activity, age, sport, or other unique quality one may possess. Tim Bishop has created Stronger Legs and Lower Body, a title that looks to rectify a key problem in one’s workout. It is tremendously common to slack on legs days, or to do exercises that do not provide much benefit. The nearly 200 pages of Stronger Legs…

Force Factor Pre-Workout Review

A product’s packaging is one of the least important things about it; while there can be information or a visually-striking box, I believe that what is in the supplement is most important. However, Force Factor has attempted to do something different with their packaging. In their main line, they have established a color-coding system of icons that showcase exactly what it is that their product is supposed to do. We…

Sisterhood of Dune (Book)

There mythos of Dune has been carefully fostered over the 45-plus years since the creation of the original title. The latest effort, Sisterhood of Dune, is able to continue adding to this mythos, all while providing an interesting and compelling plot. What I found the strongest about Sisterhood of Dune is how it is able to navigate the various twists and turns of the Dune universe and establish something that…

Prince Rama announces Spring tour dates

Drawing from a collective mine of times and spaces, Prince Rama (made up of sisters Taraka and Nimai Larson) takes the threads of ancient symbolism and ritual and weaves a surreal universe that is wholly their own. Their often-unpredictable live shows graze the space between psychedelic ceremony, performance art and initiation rite. Trust Now, their 5th full-length album and 2nd album to be released on Paw Tracks was born out…
