It has recently come to vision that Vizio is mulling over to concentrate more on LCD sets and put a stop on the selling of Plasma TVs. The Southern California-based upstart has developed a successful business selling relatively inexpensive HDTVs in warehouse stores such as Costco and Sam's Club. Earlier to Vizio, it was Pioneer, maker of ultra-pricey plasma sets for home theater aficionados that announced that it is exiting the TV business altogether.

It comes as shocking news that on the day when the much awaited Billu released, Sharukh Khan's house 'Mannat' in Bandra was attacked at around 4.30 AM.

The attackers in a group of two or three attacked the house while throwing a bottle containing a highly inflammable substance at the actor's house.

The attackers ran away after the attack, following which SRK lodged the FIR.

According to the sources, "the bottle was a kind of crude bomb intended to cause some sort of small explosion. However, nobody was reported to be hurt."

It has recently come to vision that Reliance-Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (R-ADAG)-controlled BIG TV has withdrawn from partnering the Indian Premier League (IPL). The reason behind the withdrawal is the discrimination by the league's broadcast rights-holder Sony Entertainment Television (SET).

IPL CEO Sundar Raman was the one who received the BIG TV's decision, who alleged that SET has decided to provide the contract to competitor Airtel DTH, though it quoted a lower price for on-air partnership, sources close to the development told Business Standard.

A latest study conducted by the Pew Internet and American Life Project says that those who use Twitter are relatively younger. A survey conducted during the study, which involved 2,253 online respondents found that nearly 20 percent of adults' ages 18 to 34 years old have used so-called micro-blogging sites, of which Twitter is the best known.

However people who are over 35 years of age do not believe in Twittering. The study concludes that only 10 percent of those 35-44 years old use the services and a scant
5 percent of those 45- to 54- year-olds are users.

In what seems to be a case of polygamy under wraps, the infamous bigamist Oliver Killeen, 71, turned himself in to the police yesterday.

According to police, Killen married a number of women in Ontario and other parts of the world, including Europe, but never got legally divorced from the prior spouse for any of the unions.

He was charged with a single count of bigamy and released on a promise to appear in court next month.

Yesterday, Mountie commissioner William Elliott told the Commons public safety committee that use of Tasers should be resisted as they can prove to be fatal especially in "acutely agitated" condition.

"We've now made it very clear that the only time the use of a Taser can be justified is where there is a threat, either to our officers or to members of the public," he said.

However, Taser International Inc., the U. S.-based maker of the stun guns, has defended the safety of its devices with conviction.
