Health:Video Games aren't bad for children

The report, which found a number of benefits and no definitive link to aggressive behavior, counters the violent reputation of some titles, and may help reassure nervous parents of game addicts.
"Video games are in most cases not dangerous and can even contribute to the development of important skills," Toine Manders, the Dutch liberal lawmaker who authored the report, told Reuters.
"(They stimulate) learning of facts and skills such as strategic reflection, creativity, cooperation and a sense of innovation," said a news release about the findings.Rather than issuing a call for new legislation banning certain games, the report instead urged EU states to collaborate in strengthening the current voluntary code known as "PEGI", which rates games according to their content.
Last year, total revenues from the video gaming industry were more than seven billion euros ($9 billion), the report said. In Britain, video games outsold music and other video products for the first time last year, according to a separate study.
However, the EU report said that not all games are appropriate for children, and noted that some books and movies are targeted solely to an older audience. It also conceded that some games that contain violent content could "stimulate" aggressive behavior in certain situations.
The report emphasized parental involvement, and proposed the development of a "red button" to allow parental control of game content and the duration of play. However, the report did not provide specific details about what form such a button might take.
The report questioned prevailing wisdom that games were targeted mainly towards children, citing data that showed the European video game player is 33 years of age.

Although the brave Iraqi reporter might have missed his target but with this new game if you want to throw a virtual shoe to the virtual Bush then you can play this very funny shoe-throwing game on the internet at http://www.sockandawe.com/
The US symbolic name for the mission of uprooting Saddam Hussein from Iraq was 'shock and awe'.So mocking that mission this game has been named "Sock and Awe".This game allows the players to hit bush with a brown colored shoe as many times possible in 30 seconds.The game gives a running total of shoes to have hit Bush in the face -there were 42466570 successful hits at the time of writing this article.I hit 8 times myself and really enjoyed it a lot.So if you want to throw some shoes to you infamous president then I would say this is your best chance, so go for it.
