Measuring blood pressure

Via the excellent engadget blog, here is a nifty item to put on the wall for all you health-freaks out there. Perhaps I should strap my arm to one of the controls the next time I read about the Archbishop of Canterbury, the eco-Leninist thoughts of Madeleine Bunting, or watch the English rugby/cricket/football team give up a lead?.

Or maybe I should stop doing all these things for a longer, happier life.

    Our football team beat the might of Switzerland, (although we needed an Italian to coach us), and our brave cricketers took on and bested the mighty Black Caps at baseball.

    I’m sure our rugby heroes will put up a better fight in Rome on Sunday.
