Stay charged with Konnet PowerV Duo

The PowerV Duo is a new way to charge Wii remotes and other devices. It works the same way as the Powermat or the Duracell myGrid. All you have to do is lay your Wii remote in the charging bays and let them charge. You don't have to plug them into anything or take off the motion plus jacket or the silicone. If that's not enough the PowerV Duo also has two USB ports to charge anything with USB capability. And if two is not enough, you can buy the PowerV Quad which comes with four charging bays, but no USB ports. The PowerV Duo comes with two rechargeable Wii remote batteries, and comes in either black or white.

iPhone case music to keyboard enthusiasts' ears

Apple has made a case for the iPhone that comes with a keyboard. It was built for the people that like using a keyboard that isn't touch. Although this little device is neat and is a good idea, there is some problems with it. It works via wireless Bluetooth network and there is no way to connect it otherwise. The bad part is Bluetooth drains the battery of the phone and the keyboard has its own battery as well. So instead of keeping one device charged you now need to keep two devices charged. The postive thing about the wireless keyboard is that you get to type on a fullscreen, rather than half the screen which is normaly taken up buy the touch keyboard.

Police to Tweet day's worth of incidents

Britain's police force has decided to tweet all of the incidents that they deal with for 24 hours. They decided to do this, because they don't want people taking them for granted, and assuming they're just doing the same things people see on T.V. They want people to know all the stuf they deal with and lots of the proccesses they have to go to. They did their day of tweets one week before the goverment decided to make spending cuts.

Bowling For Columbine

Thesis: The U.S.A. is more violent than most other countries.

NRA:

The president of the NRA avoids the consequences of letting people own guns. 

Example: Michael Moore confronts Charleton Heston about the little girl who had been shot and he claimed to know nothing about it. Michael asked him to apologise to the people of that town for holding a gun rally just after the incident and he got up and walked away. Michael followed him around his home and Charleton just kept walking. The whole time Charleton was being interviewed he avoided questions about how violent America is due to the availability of guns. 

American news:

News in American is all about death and murder, and portrays fear into Americans.

Example: In the documentary Michael Moore compares American news to Canadian news. They show some clips of American news, and it is all about death, murder, and violence. They then show some clips of Canadian news, and it talks about simple things we Canadians like to know, and it’s not all about death. Michael Moore talks to an American news reporter and asked him, if he had two choices: a baby that just drowned, or a man with a gun, which would he pick. The news reporter said “Always the man with the gun; Always.” Just that little interview proves how the American news likes to portray fear into their people.  

American history:

The south park clip shows us the history between America, and guns and violence.

Example: Throughout the whole “A Brief History of America” clip, the narrator says how scared the Americans were.  The narrator, a little cartoon bullet, starts by telling us about the pilgrims, how they left for the new world so that they would not be scared anymore, and how they killed all the Indians there, because the Indians frightened them. They then killed lots of British soldiers so that they could be free and passed the amendment that all men had the right to own a gun. The narrator then moves on to the point of slavery, because the Americans were scared of work. The slaves started uprising and soon became free. The Americans were still scared and paranoid, so the created the KKK and the NRA. Eventually they got so “scared” that they created suburbs where they could be “safe”. This little clip shows us just how paranoid and violent the U.S.A. is.
