Nanny New York
(CBS) NEW YORK First it was cell phones in cars, then trans fats. Now, a new plan is on the table to ban gadget use while crossing city streets.Life in Nurse Bloomberg's New York looks like so much fun.We all seem to have one -- an iPod, a BlackBerry, a cell phone -- taking up more and more of our time, but can they make us too distracted to walk safely? Some people think so.
If you use them in the crosswalk, your favorite electronic devices could be in the crosshairs.
Legislation will be introduced in Albany on Wednesday to lay a $100 fine on pedestrians succumbing to what State Sen. Carl Kruger calls iPod oblivion.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

The current fashion is determined by the accessories. A designer clothing brands will not make a statement without the proper accessories. Designer Inspired Handbag Shop and purses are one of the best ways to adapt. The investment in a quality portfolio with a versatile style is an excellent option to maximize your wardrobe. Due to the nature expensive designer handbags, you must choose wisely … and not without reason to buy the wrong or reproduction of the original. Often presented as authentic fakes are much lower in quality and are an obvious forgery to the trained eye. It is often difficult to determine whether a bag is not authentic, especially when shopping online.
