It must have been very painful for Jeremy's family, his parents, his wife Lauren Lusk, and for his fellow riders and his fans.

The victim is a male in his mid-20s, possibly Hispanic, and was pronounced dead at the scene, said Lt. Blake Green with the Norman Police Department. Green said he didn’t know why the man was on the tracks.

Norman police, fire and emergency crews responded about 6:50 p.m. Sunday evening to reports of a pedestrian being struck by a train near the railroad tracks north of Robinson Street.

Toshiba Unleashes It's New TGO1 Phone (Pics, Specs, Video)

Toshiba Unleashes It's New TGO1 Phone (Pics, Specs, Video)
Toshiba TGO1 has been unleashed in the market. It is a new phone to run on Qualcomm Snapdragon platform, powered by 1Ghz mobile CPU, and has GSM, HSPDA, Bluetooth, Wi-fi and GPS.

Toshiba TGO1 is bigger than the Apple iPhone but it's slimmer. It has a 4.`" WVGA screen, measuring 9.9mm. It has 512 MB internal memory expandable to up to 32 GB. It only has 3.2 8 megapixel camera though which is a big "WHY"?

The Toshiba TG01 Touchscreen phone is definitely nice. With phones like this we now have more choices than before. But I still question the 3.2 megapixel camera. Why can't we get an 8 megapixel camera? Or at least a 5 megapixel?
