Man charged for charging his iPhone

By +Sue Casa

A London man was arrested last week on suspicion of 'abstracting electricity' as he charged his iPhone while traveling on public transport. Robin Lee, an artist, plugged his iPhone into an electrical outlet on the overground train while travelling from Hackney to Camden last Friday.

Top 10 stupid state laws - Arizona

By +Brad Naylor

Due to the success of the Rhode Island Dumb Laws post, I have decided to make it a recurring event, at least until I run out of States. Since I am running these in no particular order, the next State to get it's dumb laws scrutinized is Arizona. The state of Arizona has many dumb laws, but it also has one very smart one... No Daylight Savings Time, so no winding the clocks forward or backward twice a year.

Stupid Laws - Arizona
Stupid Laws for Stupid... umm, never mind

Top 10 - Rhode Island to repeal dumb laws

By +Brad Naylor

Everybody seems to know at least one stupid law which made sense when it was written, but is no longer valid in today's society. Rhode Island, the smallest state, is revisiting some of these outdated laws and either repealing or rewriting them. I took a brief trip around the interwebs to find some of the most amusingly irrelevant ones.
