It's very strange that in an age where all cars need brake lights, bikes do not. This could change with the Lucidbrake, a smart wireless bicycle brake light. At first I thought this was some brakelight that would attach to some mechanism on the bike so the moment you hit a brake, the light will go on. Actually, it is not like that at all, for the brake light will go on … [Read more...] about LucidBrake is a brake light for the bike!

Oh, he also did those Batman films, and some … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Interstellar
Our review of Lois Lane: Fallout, a YA novel
I had an terrific chance to review a YA (young adult) novel entitled Lois Lane: Fallout, by Gwenda Bond, published by Switch Press.

Okay, I know I have said that Nintendo's Days are numbered, and as the owner of a PS4 and the Nintendo Wii U, I will let you know which one that I play more. The other night, that changed. It didn't all change, but I was propelled into a fun realm with Super Mario 3D World.

The purpose of these … [Read more...] about The iBaby Monitor M6
Speculative Fiction Saturday: Snowpiercer
Okay, I can understand if you have never heard of this one. It has a lot of star power with Chris Evans, Ed Harris, John Hurt, Tilda Swinton, and Jamie Bell. I believe that this is a foreign film, as it was not made in America, and there are some good and bad things about this film. Snowpiercer is about a train of the same name, and it carries the last survivors of the … [Read more...] about Speculative Fiction Saturday: Snowpiercer

CJ 4DPlex could create some interesting theater experiences
When Avatar first hit the theaters in 2009, it was a terrific way that 3D got people back into the movie houses. People actually saw that film several times, and I can't remember when that has ever happened. There were a lot of 3D imitations after that, but the fad (which has happened several times in several eras) has passed, honestly. The only thing left to do after 3D … [Read more...] about CJ 4DPlex could create some interesting theater experiences
