10:00- Should the officer be back at work before the trial?
Tammie Sutherland, Reporter at CityNews Toronto
The Toronto Police officer charged in the shooting death of Sammy Yatim last year is now back at work. Const. James Forcillo is on desk duty while a preliminary inquiry is underway. Forcillo was charged with second-degree murder last summer after police responded to a Dundas streetcar where Yatim, 18, was holding a small knife. He fired nine times, eight of them hitting Yatim. Bystander video set off massive public protest that has escalated into heated discussion on use of force by police. Following the shooting, Chief Bill Blair suspended Forcillo with pay, as mandated by provincial legislation.

10:30- Why are we so addicted to our devices? How do you “unplug”?
Jenn Campbell and Mike Farwell, Country 106 Morning Show – IN STUDIO
Flurry, a mobile analytics company, has a new study out about mobile device addiction. The results are grim. We simply can’t stop checking our phones and tablets. So much so, in fact, that we’re essentially “wearing” them. Flurry defines a “mobile addict” as “a consumer that launches apps more than 60 times per day”. The company analyzed data from 500,000 apps across 1.3 billion devices as of March 2014 and found there were 176 million consumers checking their phones more than 60 times per day, up 123% from just last March.
