Police in Vancouver, British Columbia are baffled by the fact that they discovered yet another foot that was washed ashore.

The severed foot was found in a shoe on an uninhabited island near Vancouver (Strait of Georgia) and its the fourth one to be found during the last 10 months

So far connecting the feet found with missing persons via their DNA has failed.

Students from British Columbia, Canada, presented a very interesting idea regarding the interaction with Wall Displays. Since we would need a ladder to interact with a gigantic touch screen wall display, they invented Shadow Reaching.

It seems very interesting, although it might have some problems in the presence of strong light.
