An earlier report that had the upcoming Nintendo 3DS gaming console's screen bad for the eyes of users, especially those of children under six, is being discounted by US optometrists. USAToday reported on Friday that manufacturer's warnings don't need to be followed for undeveloped vision of the young kids. Eye specialists suggested the just the opposite and condoned the use of the game consoles by that age group, as it could help parents catch vision disorders early.
"The 3DS could be a godsend for identifying kids under six who need vision therapy," said Michael Duenas, associate director for health sciences and policy for the American Optometric Association.If you were a parent, would this article convince you to let your kids play video games?

The offers are not binding it seems until due diligence occurs. Investing any amount of money with no due diligence would be foolish on the part of an investor no matter how wealthy as they need to understand your company and verify the veracity of your claims (patents, revenues, number of customers, etc).
From an entrepreneur's perspective, a deal is not done until the ink dries on the papers both in real life and on the Shark Tank.
The average retail price of eggs was $1.73 a dozen in March, down 5% from a year ago, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Meanwhile, the wholesale price of $1.28 a dozen in the week leading into Easter is down 7 cents from a year ago and 10 cents from two years ago.Right now, egg demands around Easter have been less than previous years. And this does not translate well for the egg producers. Maro Ibarburu of Iowa State University's Egg Industry Center said, "If they are not making money now, I don't see how they are going to make money for the next three or four months."
The Justice Department said the terms of the settlement reflect J&J's voluntarily disclosures to the government, its cooperation and the company's "role in identifying improper practices in the life sciences industry."
J&J's payments to settle the various probes include $48.6 million to the SEC in disgorgement and prejudgment interest, a $21.4 million criminal penalty to the Justice Department, and £4.8 million ($7.8 million) to the U.K. Serious Fraud Office.A $70 million settlement to Johnson & Johnson seems like a drop in the ocean for this corporate giant. Compared to my previous post on AstraZeneca's $1.1 billion payment. Is bribery a less serious charge than tax evasion? Or is this a "sweetheart deal"?
In Japan, Person Finder went live within an hour of the earthquake. More than 600,000 contact entries have been made since then—more than all other disasters combined—and there have been several reports of people finding their loved ones safe.
Last month a former worker sued founder Dov Charney, alleging he sexually abused her. American Apparel has said that it expects the lawsuit will be tossed out because the former employee signed an agreement not to sue and to settle disputes in arbitration when she left the company.Second, Deloitte resigned as AA's external auditor in July 2010. According to WSJ, AA's stock dropped after the announcement. Like most cases where the auditors quit suddenly, the main concern points to "retail store impairment, inventory reserves and the provision for income taxes" on the balance sheet. Based on my knowledge from accounting and business management classes, this typically happens when there is material fraud happening at the client company that Deloitte doesn't want to get involved with and/or major clash between the Deloitte team and the client head team.
The lawsuit is the latest in a string accusing Charney of inappropriate sexual conduct with female employees. In interviews, he has acknowledged having sexual relationships with female workers, but said they were consensual.
Something about [American Apparel] being overpriced, bland, and enshrouded in hipster mystique and social activism really pisses our pants off.Now that AA has completely exploited the royal consumers and destroyed its image, who is willing to pay for their overpriced merchandises? After all, not every company can get away with it like Apple can.
