Whatever the reason for your travel, you have made a considerable investment. It costs you time and money. If you're stuck in a hotel room suffering from jet lag symptoms, you're missing out. Obviously, you'd like to make the most of your trip. You will get the greatest return on your investment if you're out of your hotel room enjoying your destination. I can help you achieve this. "What Is Jet Lag?" In simple terms, jet lag is the disruption of your body's internal clock, or circadian rhythm. This clock sets your sleeping and waking times. It is complex and sensitive. Flying east or west messes it up. That's because you cross time zones much faster than your body can adjust. What are common jet lag symptoms? They include: * Headache * Disorientation * Anxiety * Exhaustion * Indigestion * Dehydration * Impaired Coordination Obviously, these things could ruin your trip. Following these guidelines will reduce your jet lag symptoms and let you enjoy your trip even more. I'll break this discussion into three sections: * Before Your Trip * During Your Flight * At Your Destination A. Help Prevent Jet Lag Before You Leave Home 1. Get Plenty Of Sleep. NASA found that getting as much sleep as possible beginning two days before your trip is significant in minimizing jet lag symptoms. 2. Reduce Your Stress. All that running around can make you more stressed. 3. Exercise. If you exercise regularly, make it a priority to keep that routine just before you travel. Also, continue it at your destination. B. Things You Can Do During Your Flight To Reduce Jet Lag 1. Arrive Early At The Airport. Not rushing to make your flight will help reduce stress and make you more relaxed. That way you'll rest better on the plane. 2. Begin Adjusting To The New Time Zone And Schedule. When you get on the plane, set your watch to your destination's time. Then think about when you'll eat and sleep there. Try to begin eating and sleeping at those times. 3. Sleep As Much As You Can On the Plane. This is a key factor in reducing jet lag. 4. Wear Comfortable clothing. Comfortable clothes, warm socks and a sweater will enable you to sleep better. 5. Drink Plenty of Water. Not soda, not alcohol, not caffeine, but water. 6. Get Up and Stretch Frequently. 7. Use a Footrest. If you're tall, it takes strain off of your lower back. If you're not so tall (or a child), and if your feet don't touch the floor, this helps prevent cramps behind your thighs. 8. Loosen Your Shoes to get some extra circulation to your feet. 9. Avoid Pills and Supplements. There was a study reported in England's Lancet Medical Journal. It blamed 18% of deaths during long-haul flights from blood clots in the lungs. Sleeping pills cause you to sleep without any body movement. This reduces your circulation and increases the chance of blood clotting. C. Adjusting At Your Destination 1. Try To Eat On The New Schedule. This helps your body clock adjust to minimize your jet lag symptoms. 2. Try To Sleep On The New Schedule. 3.Exercise. This is also among the important jet lag remedies. If you have a regular exercise routine, you'll want to continue it now. 4. Get out in the Sunlight. This is simple to accomplish as long as you have a sunny day. Studies have shown that exposure to bright light helps shift the circadian rhythms (body clock), and therefore reduce the jet lag symptoms. That's just a brief overview. I highly recommend that you read my complete jet lag article before you go on your next long trip. You can find it on my web site. Copyright 2005 by Ph.Developments USA, Inc. All rights reserved.

Is your air traffic control person real? Have you ever been flying around in your private plane and the control tower or approach control has sent you on a vector or asked you to do something, which made no sense at all? But of course you did it anyway, because they are in charge right? You might have thought to yourself; "Is this guy for real?" "Is this guy in some kind of dreamland, asleep up there?" Well in the future such questions may not be too far off actually. For instance your air traffic control tower professional maybe in augmented reality, sitting in a room with no windows looking at your aircraft on a TV screen or video monitor. Mirrors to Redirect Mini Laser Weapons on Fighters for Vortex Airflows Recently a new airborne laser system was announced to be put onto fighter jets, once this technology becomes more advanced we will no longer need missiles for air-to-air combat. The system, which will go onto a fighter jet would be called the; "HELLADS" or High Energy Liquid Laser Area Defense System, it is being tested now. Automated Satellite Following System for UAV Swarms Much work is being done and the USAF has implemented systems to fly UAVs Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in ah hoc formations like swarms of insects or flock of birds. We cannot quite match evolution and bird flock formations but we are on our way. Business Aviation Networking Notes The process of finding out about a job, getting interviewed, and eventually receiving an offer for employment starts with networking.

How to Get a Free Airline Upgrade on Your Flight Everyone wants to buy a cheap economy ticket and get bumped up to business or first class.

FAA Intervention in Privatized Space Flight is Ridiculous Burt Rutan and his team of designers, engineers and test pilots at Scaled Composites did something no private group had ever done. They proved that private space flight is feasible and safe. Making a Mechanical Manta with Material Memory Manufacturing Methods I propose building a mechanical manta ray as a Underwater Unmanned Vehicle; UUV. The manta ray will have air tanks inside of its wings and a sound device, which will also operate a sonar and an ELF communication system. Cracking Aircraft Windows with Directed Sound Waves Today our modern military scientists have found many uses for directed energy beams. Some of these uses include communication, non-lethal weapons and high-energy lasers. Young Men Trying to Imitate the 9-11 Scenario, Part III What caused a teenager to crash an aircraft into the Bank of America Building in Tampa? It makes no sense. Read more in Part III to try to understand the causes involved in this scenario. Increasing TAS in Modern Day Fighters with Expandable Wing Tips As fighter aircraft get faster and faster there is a diminishing return on more aerodynamic streamlining in designs.

Hypersonic or Ultrasonic Sound to Disrupt Laser Beam Attack on Commercial Airliners In large buildings to prevent sound pollution often double paned glass is used with music or flowing air between the panes, this works very well and is sufficient to prevent the noise. Since many commercial airliners have double paned glass already if we are careful to watch the harmonics as to not cause structural problems to the aircraft (remember the Comet), then we propose hypersound or ultrasonic sound within the panes to prevent laser light from entering the cockpit and inhibiting or blinding the pilots.
