Teenager Kills Facebook Friend Over Girl

 
The body of 18-year-old John Dargis was found Friday afternoon in the woods of  Zeeland Township in Michigan. His Facebook friend Joshua Hambly is accused of being the murderer.
The motive for the murder remains unclear, although neighbors said a rivalry had begun because of a girl. “It was over a girl. He liked her and the other guy liked her and he got mad,” a teenage neighbor told local news station WZZM 13. The kid — who was described by their neighbors as shy and private — was arrested at his workplace less than a day after the murder was discovered. Lieutenant Mark Bennett of the Ottawa County Sheriff’s Department told the television news:
They knew each other for a little while. I want to do a little checking to see what the level of acquaintance was.
Could it be that the authorities looked at the victims’ Facebook profile and messages and saw something in there involving Gambly? Clearly if they had arrested Gambly because of real-life threats or interactions, the police would have said so from the very start.
John Dargis lived in the Maple View Mobile Home Park with his mom and sister. His body was found right behind their mobile home by a neighbor. Besides the fact that the body was naturally found under several inches of snow, police officers say the way the body appeared pointed to someone intentionally trying to conceal the body. Hambley will be formally charged today, and an autopsy on Dargis is scheduled soon.
Do you think the teenager was driven to murder by something he saw on Facebook?

Device : iPhone , iPad , Android 2. iReddit Reddit is a self-described social news website where users vote for their favorite stories, pictures or posts from other users, then argue vehemently over their meaning in the comments section. In recent years, it has gained readers as its competitor Digg has lost them.

‘Wireless’ humans could backbone new mobile networks

People could form the backbone of powerful new mobile internet networks by carrying wearable sensors. The sensors could create new ultra high bandwidth mobile internet infrastructures and reduce the density of mobile phone base stations.Engineers from Queen’s Institute of Electronics, Communications and Information Technology are working on a new project based on the rapidly developing science of body-centric communications.Social benefits could include vast improvements in mobile gaming and remote healthcare, along with new precision monitoring of athletes and real-time tactical training in team sports, an institute release said.The researchers are investigating how small sensors carried by members of the public, in items such as next generation smartphones, could communicate with each other to create potentially vast body-to-body networks.The new sensors would interact to transmit data, providing ‘anytime, anywhere’ mobile network connectivity.Simon Cotton from the i
