Economist calls Nintendo sale 'a little bit deceptive'

Nintendo officials said their 30% off sale was "thanks to tariff-related refunds." An economist said Nintendo is reacting because consumers wanted their money back on the increased Switch and Switch 2 costs. 

"When you look at the Nintendo sale announcement, we're talking about digital games, so they cost almost nothing for Nintendo to deliver," said Williams. "If you're talking about a 25–30% discount for two weeks, for them that's pretty good marketing, pretty cheap marketing."

Potential cuts to FCC E-Rate could harm schools' budgets for internet expenses

Superintendents across the nation are advocating for the E-Rate program, which reimburses schools for 10-90% of their expenses for internet-related bills.

"This means that computer devices that teachers and students use aren't refreshed. This means making tough choices about software programs that do help children learn, and also systems that help support our families in trying to access learning. All of that gets called into question and forces some difficult choices," said Montgomery County Superintendent Taylor.

Yearning for unseriousness? So are the organizers of an event where you get together and eat an apple.

Seriously. That's the whole event that thousands of people responded to. This Saturday from 2 p.m. to 2:50 p.m.

Organizer Jenny Mandl talked with WUSA9 to talk about the deeply silly event.

Are you going? If so are you team apple or granny smith? I will eat pretty much any apple that's not Red Delicious.

DC Jurors found evidence (in a jacket pocket) that law enforcment and prosecutors missed - Precedent?

LOCATION: DC

This is a really odd case that I've never heard of: A group of D.C. Jurors found physical evidence when examining a hoodie and a jacket. The items held a "white powdery substance" that the court said was probably drugs and a Chinese yuan that was mentioned as evidence in an armed robbery at a gas station. Read the whole thing HERE

The judge denied the defense's request for a mistrial.

Is there any precedent for this kind of thing?

Disclosure: I'm the journalist who wrote this article. I'm seriously asking for help because I've never seen anything even kind of like this before and want to take a closer look.
