Electric Zoo music festival canceled

The third and final day of New York City's Electric Zoo music festival was canceled Sunday after two concert-goers died and at least four others were hospitalized due to drug-related causes, police said.

The cause of death for the two Electric Zoo attendees -- a 23-year-old male and a 20-year-old female -- is believed to involve the drug MDMA, either in Ecstasy pills or in its "pure" powder or crystal form, known as molly. Four others remain hospitalized and critically ill, with the causes still under investigation, according to Sgt. Lee Jones, a New York PoliceDepartment spokesman.

The city recommended the electronic music festival be canceled after the recent events, and Electric Zoo's promoters, Made Event, agreed, Jones said.

Ellen Borakove, spokeswoman for the city medical examiner's office, told CNN an autopsy is scheduled for one of the victims and that she expected to have more information Sunday afternoon.

In a statement posted Sunday on the event's homepage, Made Event said "the founders of Electric Zoo send our deepest condolences to the families of the two people who passed away this weekend. Because there is nothing more important to us than our patrons, we have decided in consultation with the New York City Parks Department that there will be no shwo today”.see more...

Syria attack used Sarin gas

The Obama administration asserted Sunday for the first time that the Syrian government used the nerve gas sarin to kill more than 1,400 people in the world’s gravest chemical weapons attack in 25 years as the White House intensified pressure on a skeptical Congress to authorize punitive military strikes against Damascus.

Secretary of State John F. Kerry said new laboratory tests showed traces of sarin, an extremely toxic nerve agent, in blood and hair samples collected from emergency workers who responded Aug. 21 to the scene of an alleged chemical weapons attack in the Damascus suburbs.

In an interview blitz on five Sunday television news shows, Kerry said the fresh forensic evidence strengthened an already compelling case for taking military action against the government of Syrian PresidentBashar al-Assad, and he predicted that Congress would vote to give President Obama that authority.

David Frost dies of a heart attack

British journalist David Frost, who was best known for his interview with former President Richard Nixon, died on Saturday, his family said. The veteran broadcaster was 74.

It was his 1977 interviews of the former president that cemented Frost's reputation around the globe. The young British broadcaster's persistent questioning drew an apology from President Nixon for Watergate.

"I let the American people down and I have to carry that burden with me for the rest of my life,” he said, watched by an audience of 45 million people.

Thirty-five years later the encounter is still a master class of interviewing technique and a gripping piece of drama. See more...

Hands on with Nintendo 2DS

When covering video games, sometimes judging with your hands is more important than with your eyes or ears.

It's hard not to review the Nintendo 2DS -- launching Oct. 12 for $130 -- without seeming a bit puzzled. Forget that there's no 3-D capability (hence the 2DS name). This version of Nintendo's popular handheld ditches the clamshell design. So, instead of opening and closing the handheld as you would with 3DS and earlier DS models, the 2DS arrives with a slate form factor.

Nintendo offered a demo of the 2DS recently, featuring several games includingMario Kart, Animal Crossing: New Leaf and Luigi'sMansion: Dark Moon.

While the 2DS retains the same dual screens, the device feels lighter and thinner. With the hinges gone, the thumbstick, directional pad and face buttons have been moved up. Two larger shoulder buttons sit on top, while the mic has moved to the lower left. Also, the 2DS trades in the switch to turn wireless functionality on and off for a Sleep switch. See more...

Google's Nexus 4 Smartphone get $100 cheaper

Google’s Nexus 4 made a splash last fall simply because it was well-built and inexpensive, and yet it didn’t require a two-year contract with a wireless carrier. Now, it’s even cheaper.

The Nexus4 now costs $200 for the 8 GB model and $250 for the 16 GB model–a $100 price reduction from before.

 Those prices aren’t incredible if you’re used to buying your phones through major wireless carriers at subsidized prices, but compared to most unlocked phones, the Nexus4 is cheap. And it’s a decent phone, running the latest version of Google’s Android operating system.
