Vancouver Mounties Taser Man To Death
September 30, 2008
Mounties in Vancouver have tasered a man to death right after he jumped out of the window of a house. I find that story highly disturbing since the man was already bleeding from the chest and naked when he landed on the ground - how much of a threat will he pose to the authorities? Surely even the greatest circus performer can't secretly hide a gun inside any body orifice when naked, right? The mounties could have just subdued him physically without resorting to the taser. that is definitely not the first taser-related death and neither will it be the last.

Buffalo DVD Multi-Drive Goes Portable
September 30, 2008
With the amount of netbooks flooding the market these days, it makes perfect sense to pick up a portable DVD drive since you'll still need to install new programs as well, and not all of those are downloadable online nor do they come in a USB flash drive. that is plus great for you to build quick backups from your netbook onto a DVD, as it supports DVD-RAM 5X, DVD-R 8X and CD-R/RW 24X formats. Powered by USB, the portable Buffalo DVD Multi-Drive measures a mere 141mm x 23mm x 155mm, and it shouldn't cause you to build up any biceps at 360g. You can pick one up for approximately $80.

The Sony Ericsson Rika will plus come in red, whether that spy shot is anything to go by. Unfortunately, there is no word on its specifications yet even until today so I guess we'll just have to sit it out and wait for Sony Ericsson to issue an official press release or something.

Pedometer To Hit Nintendo Products?
September 30, 2008
Word has it that Nintendo is currently working on a pedometer, although it is really hard to see how one is going to include a pedometer into everyday gameplay. Having one that connects to the DS would be nice, since the DS is portable and all, but judging by the design of that thing, it doesn't look as though it will come with the connectors to hook up via the DS' Slot-2. Perhaps that will be yet another fitness-related game accessory for the Wii, but that'll only be super effective whether you're walking on a treadmill or something similar, right?
