NOT that outrageous.
A US man, Daniel Goodson,
has lost his emotional damages
bid against E! television and the
Kardashian sisters, following a US
court’s decision that the socialites’
behaviour was not “sufficiently
outrageous to cause him harm”.
Goodson was aiming to get
US$75,000 for claims the trio
caused him intentional emotional
distress with their behaviour on
the hit reality TV show, Keeping
up with the Kardashians.
SAFETY over security.
Police in NZ have had to park
their Segways, after the discovery
that they were illegal in public areas.
According to reports, the
Segways fell under the classification
of cars, and needed to be
registered as roadworthy.
Police in NZ are however
hopeful that the “technicality can
be sorted out”.
Debate has raged since the
scooter’s inception over their
safety, given they can reach
speeds of 20kms, are powered by
a fast spinning gyroscope, and
users remain fairly unprotected
from the elements.
The debate was underscored
when the owner of the Segway
company was found dead after
his Segway crashed over a cliff
and into a river.
