Hangover Heaven: Las Vegas Survival Business Delivers Hangover Cures

Party buses are designed for fun and debauchery. They can be rented to
help individuals celebrate virtually any event, but are especially
popular for weddings and bachelor/bachelorette parties. With a party bus
you get a designated driver, and a place to keep the party going
without pause while en route to the next club or bar. The only problem
with partying that hard is that you’re going to feel it in the morning,
so some smart individuals ran with the party bus concept, and made a
party bus solution.

Netgear Trek N300 Travel Router

Netgear Trek N300 Travel Router[CES 2014] The Trek N300 is another travel router that looks pretty interesting: first of all, it can share public WiFi HotSpots to all your devices, so that may beat your older travel router, but it also has a flip-out antenna that supposedly makes the reception better. It’s impossible to tell without running some tests in the real world, but I just think that it looks cool. (more…)

    D-Link DIR-510L WiFi AC750 Travel Router / Charger

    D Link DIR 510L WiFi AC750 Travel Router / Charger[CES 2014] With the explosion of smart devices connecting over WiFi, having travel routers have gone from being a superfluous element to being money-saving objects. Since many hotels charge “per device”, I have seen quite a few people get into situations where they got charged separately for the laptop, smartphone and tablet in the same room. The D-Link WiFi AC750 has been created exactly to avoid these types of situations by letting you share an internet connection (3G, WiFi or Ethernet) with all your devices. (more…)

    Need This New Invention? Glass Box Suspended Over The Alps

    Glass Box Suspended Over the AlpsA new attraction in the French Alps opens today. It is a not-so-simple
    glass box that is suspended more than 3,200 feet above the valley below.

    in Europe.  The box is the newest addition to the viewing platform at
    the top of Aiguille du Midi. The box is glass on top and bottom, as well

    Amsterdam’s Canal Aqua: Bottled Canal Water Costs Almost $70 Per Bottle

    Amsterdam is known for a lot of things, including their scenic canals. The city’s Canal District is turning 400 this year, and the city is celebrating by selling bottles of water obtained from the canal.

    It’s an unusual souvenir but hey, at least it lets you take an actual piece (or rather, several hundred milliliters) of the attraction with you, complete with sediment. The water is bottled as Amsterdam Canal Aqua and has the background story of the waterway printed on the back of its label.

    It’s obviously not potable, so don’t drink it if you know what’s good for you.

    Each bottle of Amsterdam Canal Aqua is priced at €50 (~$69 USD.)
