Trailer Arrives for Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth
Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth was just announced a few days ago by Atlas, but a trailer has already arrived.
A variety of characters from previous titles are joining the fray. Persona Q2 New Cinema Labyrinth releases in Japan on November 29th, 2018 and will released in both the United States and Europe a few months after that, likely in early 2019.
New Update Arrives for Red Dead Online, Adds Gun Rush Mode
Rockstar has dropped a new update for Red Dead Online, a part of the super-popular Red Dead Redemption 2 title.
The highlight of the update is the addition of a new mode that goes live today for Red Dead online, Gun Rush, a new 32-player mode .
Rockstar outlined the following:
- Daily Challenges: Tackle new challenges each day covering every aspect of the game, from sharpshooting to evading the law.
- Law and Bounty Upgrades: Some changes are coming to the way the Law and Bounty systems work in Red Dead Online to reduce the enticements for griefing. Soon, players will get a bounty for committing crimes and will be incentivized to pay them off within an allotted time. Wait too long and bounty hunters from each of the states will track the player forcing them to either pay up or escape.
- Parley Changes: We're making the Parley system easier to trigger so that you can avoid aggressive players more quickly. In addition, it will be easier to trigger Feuds, Posse Feuds and Leader Feuds to take on attacking players in structured competition.
- Proximity-Based Player Blips: Player location blips will soon appear only over short distances, reducing the range at which you are visible to others, decreasing the likelihood of being targeted by another player across large areas. Down the line, we're also looking to introduce the ability to identify players who grief and kill indiscriminately with a progressively darkening blip that becomes more visible and at a longer range, so everyone in a session can identify potentially dangerous opponents at a glance and from a safe distance.
More to Come this year
- All-new missions to build on your Story in A Land Of Opportunities – from previously established characters like Horley and Jessica LeClerk, and some new ones as well.
- A range of Dynamic Events throughout the world
- Lots of new competitive modes including new Showdown Modes and Races
- New weapons and clothing
- Lots more not ready to be shared just yet
Character Roster for Dead or Alive 6
It's been a lot to keep up with, but there is now a full list of characters that are a part of Dead or Alive 6 and you can check it out in this article.
Check out the list of available characters, courtesy of VG247:
- Ayane: the legendary purple-haired Kunoichi – and a series staple. She has a fast, furious and unpredictable fighting style.
- Bass: king of the ring professional wrestler 'The Muscle' Bass returns. He's still riding his hog – and embarrassing daughter Tina.
- Bayman: Bayman is a Russian assassin best-known for his less-than-stealthy bright orange combat attire. He knows all sorts of CQC techniques that'd rival even Solid Snake…
- Brad Wong: drunken Master Brad Wong is always off his head, but that lets him use the wild, often confusing Zui Quan fighting style. He loves beer.
- Christie: the world of DOA is full of assassins, and none are perhaps as deadly as Christie and her Snake Fist fighting style. Plus, she's a Brit. What's not to love?
- Diego: newcomer Diego was raised on the rougher backstreets of New York City. As such, he's got a rough-and-tumble street fighting style.
- Eliot: an orphan, Eliot was chosen to be the stole pupil of a martial arts master. Now, he competes in tournaments like DOA to prove his prowess.
- Hayabusa: video game royalty, Hayabusa is of course also known for Ninja Gaiden – and appropriately fights with the Hayabusa Style Ninjitsu.
Hayate: there are so many bloody ninjas in this game. Hayate uses Mugen Tenshin Ninjutsu – giving him swift, powerful moves.
Helena: in a sense Helena is partially to blame for all of this, since her father started the DOA tournament. She's a skilled martial artist herself, fighting with the elegant Pi Gua Quan style.
Hitomi: half Japanese, half German, Hitomi is all Karate master, and is a solid balance all-around fighter, quite capable in all facets of combat.
Honoka: still a schoolgirl, Honoka is a kung-fu master in her own right, and has developed her own style that she rather originally called Honoka Fu.
Jann Lee: with a surname shared with his obvious inspiration Bruce, it's easy to guess exactly how Jann Lee fights in DOA.
Kasumi: the Kunoichi of Destiny has an updated look for this latest addition to the series. She's usually a good character for beginners, with a simple but varied move-set and strong strikes.
Kokoro: using the Ba Ji Quan fighting style, Kokoro's elegant fighting rather resembles dancing – but it's far more deadly than it looks, especially if she manages to throw you.
Mila: hailing from Spain, Mila represents a more modern form of fighting – the world of Mixed Martial Arts. She has an appropriately aggressive style, including a brutal ground game.
Leifang: series favorite Leifang is back with a new bright yellow outfit. Her fighting style seeks to turn the aggression and power of opponents back against them.
La Mariposa: also known as Lisa, this ex-professional wrestler still fights in her Lucha Libre fighting style – meaning you'll spend a lot of time in the air.
Marie Rose: Swede Marie has ended up as Helena's maid, but she's pretty deadly for a maid, able to use the Russian Systema fighting style. She might be small, but she packs a serious punch.
Nico: newcomer Nico is a blue-haired scientist from Finland, and combines Pencak Silat – an old South-east Asian martial art – with technological gadgets. Doing so allows her to deal out serious damage.
Rig: in a very acute case of name-influencing-job, Rig was once a worker on an oil rig. Fair enough. He's a Taekwondo master, and is more acrobatic and agile than his brute force looking appearance might suggest.
Tina: series favorite Tina is back with her all-around-solid professional wrestling style – and she's finally stepping out of the shadow of her famous father.
Zack: dapper man Zack is now probably more famous for his exploits running a beach volleyball holiday paradise island, but he's also a powerful Muay Thai fighter – though his style isn't exactly conventional…

Phase 4 (DLC – pre-order bonus)

Second half underway
The un-official second half of the season will begin with the Richmond Braves. The Bisons are already 99 games into the season so the second half will finish more like a sprint.
TODAY'S GAME: Tonight, the Buffalo Bisons host the Richmond Braves in the first game of a four-game series at Dunn Tire Park (7:05 p.m.). Tonight's game will also start the second half of the season as the Herd returns from the Triple-A All-Star Break. Starting for the Herd is LHP John Halama. The southpaw has won five of his seven starts with the team, including a 7.2-inning performance in Syracuse on July 9. Taking the ball for Richmond will be RHP James Parr.
LONG TIME, NO SEE: You have to go back to April 18-21, 2006 for the last time the Braves faced the Bisons at Dunn Tire Park. This is Richmond's only trip to Buffalo this year and the entire four-game set scheduled last year was postponed due to snow (April 5-8). Buffalo did serve as the home team in two of the six games against Braves in 2007, but those contests were made up at The Diamond in Richmond. The last time these teams faced each other in this ballpark RHP Jake Dittler pitched six shutout innings in a 7-0 Bisons victory. Buffalo has won the last three games against the Braves in this ballpark.
SOLID STARTER: LHP John Halama has won four of his last five starts and five of his seven total starts with the team. The veteran has worked five innings or more in all of his appearances with the Bisons. In his last start, July 9 in Syracuse, Halama worked into the eighth inning in a 9-5 Herd victory.
ALL-STAR PERFORMANCE: LHP Rich Rundles was dominating for the IL in last night's Triple-A All-Star Game. The Bisons reliever needed just eight pitches to record a scoreless sixth inning for the IL. Rundles got the first two batters to ground out right back to the mound. He then struck out Albuquerque's John Gall on just three pitches. The Pacific Coast League eventually won the game, 6-5, after scoring six runs in the top of the ninth inning.
LINDEN' A HAND: OF Todd Linden finished the first half of the season on an eight-game hit streak. Since July 7, the outfielder has averaged .355 (11-31) with four doubles and three RBI. The outfielder has also reached base in 27 of his last 29 games since June 15. During that span, Linden has averaged .279 (29-104) with seven doubles, three home runs and 14 walks.

As billions of cicadas descend on the northeast, only two types of people are smiling: entomologists and, perhaps, stock investors.
The large insects — which emerge every 17 years — turn out to be great news for the market. During years when the critters appeared — going back to 1928 — stocks posted an average annual gain of nearly 21%, roughly double their historical average. That's a far better track record than most active mutual fund managers enjoy, the majority of whom tend to lag the market average over time.
We're referring to Brood II cicadas, the group that's local to the New York area (and six other states). Don't expect to see the bugs lurking outside the stock exchange, says Dr. John Cooley, a researcher at the University of Connecticut and the founder of tracking site Magicicada.org. Manhattan is generally inhospitable to the pests.
Also see: 10 things cicadas won't say
Is there any reason a bug market should be better than just a bull market? It's tough to say. Then again, since stock investors have long looked to presidential election cycles and the Super Bowl to predict stock market returns, why not a plague of locusts? There are already goldbugs, so why not bug bugs?
Standard & Poor's market-data guru Howard Silverblatt agrees. When MarketWatch called to sound him out this morning, it turned out he'd already thought to check out the cicada market theory and had been pleasantly surprised by the results. Of course, that doesn't mean he's rushing to buy. Just like when we gaze at the stars or tea leaves, it's easy to read too much into stock market returns, he warns. "You can prove anything you want," he says. "Start with your answer, and I have the data to prove it."

Hi Tim
Just curious if you have ever entertained the idea of producing material from David Cloud into BA modules?
I think the "Way of Life Encyclopedia" and "Things Hard to be Understood" would be great material to have in BA.

This is a pleasant surprise. It has a lot wrong with it -- particularly how it's not only embarrassingly-heavy on the fanservice, but also surprising *bad* at making the fanservice "work" (at least for me) -- but there's something about the way it handles the settings and its mysteries that just seems really, really solid.
It's something about how it has just enough mysteries to be interesting, and unlike, say, Lost, it doesn't keep piling weird stuff on top of weird stuff without explaining everything.
In any case I've read up to the end of volume 14, and the mysteries just keep getting cooler. I'd be a bit surprised if it winds up being about time travel or "bermuda triangle"; as of the end of volume 14 I think it's pretty easy to guess at the general idea of what's going on on the island.
I don't have any guesses as to how specifically the story will wrap up, but I will say that by the end of volume 14 it feels like the story's at about the 60% mark; basically I'd expect that once Yarai's group and Sengoku's group get back together the story will at least have the option of moving into a final arc. (On the other hand, if the author wants to drag it out further that'd be easy to do).

The world's a big place and it seems that in most countries that offer a hospitable climate, wine is produced. Given that, it seems that every six months or so, we're hearing about a new wine region that has become an overnight success, despite the fact the growers and producers have been at this for a few decades (or centuries, in some cases).
The latest collection of wines I was introduced to quite recently were those from Croatia. This country, located near the Adriatic Sea, a bit east of Italy and west of Serbia, enjoys a continental climate where summers are warm and winters are cold, much like certain wine zones of northern Italy as well as parts of France. To date, the best known thing about the wines of Croatia has been the Plavac Mali grape, originally thought to be a descendant of the Zinfandel grape, but is in reality a cross between Zinfandel and the Croatian indigenous variety Dobričić.
Despite this, the white wines were the ones that most impressed me at the tasting of the newest releases from two of the country's best producers, Matosevic and Saints Hills. The mix here was both indigenous and international varieties, but the stylings were very European in their manner, with an eye on the latest technology in the cellar.
First, the wines of Matosevic, who specializes in Malvasia and Chardonnay. He has two lines, one labeled Aura, which refers to wines aged in stainless steel and the other labeled Alba, which are wines that have been fermented and aged in oak. My favorites here were the Malvasia, especially the 2009 Aura ($24), with its perfumes of pear and peony, lively acidity and finesse; this is showing beautifully now (as is the 2008, also tasted this day) and will drink well over the next 2-3 years. (I love non-oak aromatic whites such as this with Thai or Oriental cuisine, but there are a variety of options for these bottlings.)
While I normally prefer steel-aged versions of Malvasia, I was quite impressed with the barrique-aged rendering produced by Matosevic. The 2008 displays a light nuttiness in the aromas along with notes of dried pear and caramel. The mid-palate is quite rich and there is a long finish with lively acidity. This is an excellent wine with beautiful complexity; I'd love to try this wine with seafood or even poultry or lighter veal; it should drink well over the next 3-5 years. (The $25 retail price makes this a fine value.)
Matosevic also has a white blend known as Grimalda ($28), a blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Malvasia. The wine was aged for one year in barrique and one year in stainless steel and displays aromas of spiced pear and anise and is quite rich on the palate. Nicely balanced, this has good acidity and a full finish; enjoy this over the next 2-3 years with most pork or most seafood.
The finest white at this tasting was from Ernest Tolj of Saints Hills, who showed his 2009 Nevina, a blend of Malvasia and Chardonnay. Sporting aromas of chamomile tea and dried pear, this is a powerful white that explodes on the palate and has a long, long finish with distinct minerality. This is an impressive wine that compares to the finest blended whites of Friuli and is nicely priced between $30-$35. This needs strong seafood with a rich sauce - perhaps scallops with ginger or swordfish with rosemary.
There were two reds sampled at this event: the Matosevic Grimalda Red and the Saints Hills Dingac. The former, a blend of Merlot and Terano, has aromas of black plum and anise and is medium-full with good acidity and elegant tannins. There is delicate spice, but this is a fruit-driven wine with subdued wood notes. Enjoy this over the next 5-7 years with most red meats ($30).
The latter is made from Plavac Mali and is a more powerful red with big spice (somewhat reminiscent of a Barbera from Piemonte), good acidity and plenty of black plum fruit. This definitely needs game or grilled red meat to accompany it and it will have its fans. I enjoyed the wine and think it will drink well over the next 5-7 years - it will need a few years to settle down - but I found it lacked some finesse and elegance. Perhaps with time, that will come. The suggested retail price of $54-$60 seems a bit high to me and will make this a difficult sell.
So my first encounter with the wines of Croatia was quite enjoyable. The wines are not only well made, but offer beautiful complexity and best of all, a sense of place; these are clearly not made to garner points in a wine magazine, but are meant to be enjoyed at the table with food. These producers have their priorities straight and I look forward to sampling more wines from Croatia very soon.
P.S. One final note. This was a small event at Tru Restaurant in Chicago with lovely foodstuffs to accompany the wines. I was able to meet the two vintners and ask them questions. They were very helpful in helping me learn about their particular wines, so overall I was happy with the event. But I'd love to learn a lot more about Croatia and I think all of us would. Many people don't know where the country is, much less the wine zones, so a bit more information, such as maps or a guide to the varieties used in Croatia would have been of great value.
Hopefully Wines of Croatia will be able to organize some bigger tastings in the future with more producers and perhaps even a seminar on this country's viticulture. The wines are the first step in education and they were wonderful this day. Now there needs to be more input on the part of Wines of Croatia if they are to get a foothold in the country. As I wrote at the outset, there are wines from all over the world, so to sell your products, you have to tell people about them.

Comics are fun.
The Review Group should be fun too.
Ugh, I forgot when I took back over it meant that I'd have to come up with something to say here each week. Anyone care to discuss the pros and cons of the potential Big XII raid on the ACC?

To survive and protect the love of his life, Alan will unravel the tapestry of the past he's kept hidden and discover the killer's impossible identity.

story JOHN McLAUGHLIN
art JON MALIN & ROB LIEFELD
It's the 20th anniversary of the comic book that launched the Image Revolution in 1992! ROB LIEFELD's YOUNGBLOOD returns bigger and better than ever with an all-new look at the next generation of superheroes, courtesy of screenwriter JOHN McLAUGHLIN (Black Swan, Parker), up-and-coming artist JON MALIN and YOUNGBLOOD creator and Image founder ROB LIEFELD!
In this first issue, a young reporter is embedded in the Youngblood team. Her assignment is to gather enough information for a humiliating puff piece, but she quickly discovers Shaft, Vogue, Lady Photon, Die Hard and Cougar are a team to be reckoned with.

Review as often or as little as you like. Once you've posted 5 reviews, you will be awarded 1 pick. You can post 5 reviews, right? That's a totally achievable goal and with day and date digital releases becoming the standard, it shouldn't matter if your shop ordered enough copies of this weeks comic or not.
When multiple Review Groupers have posted 5 (or more) qualifying reviews, they will be awarded their pick in the order that they qualified. What constitutes a qualifying review? Any review posted (with a score on a scale from 0-10, that's right 0!) within 1 calendar month of the thread going live. Reviews posted while waiting in line for your pick will be applied to your next pick.
I'll be keeping track of everyone's progress with the newly christened Spreadsheet of Fantastic (RIP, Spreadsheet of Doom) and reporting the results in the Current Members list in the weekly OP. When it's your turn to make a pick, I will PM you. If you do not respond to me by Midnight EST the following Sunday, you will lose your pick and I will start a poll to determine that week's selection.
Any week in which we do not have a Review Grouper with 5 qualifying picks, we will determine the week's comic via poll.
If it's your week to pick, remember to keep it under $3.99.
Naturally, this new system is new and it may be necessary to make changes as we go.

I am fan of Edmondson work; I think he writes some clever and engaging comics that are on the stands today. Well that not 100% true, I should preface that I am a fan of Edmondson Image Comics work, sorry DC Comics but whatever you are doing to Edmondson that was stifling him on Grifter your blew your chance at having a talented writer do some real good with that book. I cannot recommend enough to people who have not tried Edmondson work to pick up the latest issue of his ongoing The Activity or look for the trade of Who Is Jake Ellis both from Image Comics to just get a flavor of what he is capable of and that is why I have been looking forward to the Dancer.
Dancer starts with Quinn a ballet dancer in Italy and her boyfriend Alan. Quinn is a twenty-something Irish dancer who is leaving the ballet to pursue a life elsewhere and hopefully with Alan. Alan on the other hand is a much older man to Quinn. Grey in the temples, worn and weathers face of an American with a past that he told about to Quinn. Unfortunately Alan's past seems to come back to haunt him as he and Quinn are chased through the streets of Milan avoiding police and a very determined sniper. During a brief intermission of bullet flying and dead bodies Alan admit to Quinn that he has not been honest with his past, telling her he used to work for the C.I.A as an assassin to her response is throwing up at the subway platform. Charming. Still Alan is committed to Quinn and wants to ensure nothing happens to her, but as he is defenseless the duo make way back to his apartment for some stashed necessities to ensure their survival but only to run into the persistent sniper once again, only this time Alan gets a better look at the man and without spoiling anything more than ever he wants to escape with Quinn more than ever.
Quinn is written like most female character who is being dragged by the wrist whose world is suddenly spinning out of control, asking the 'Who, What, When and Why' questions all through the issue and Alan slowly feeding her, and the readers, her answers. Alan a stoic man who does not seem to be one to waste words, no long rambles or soliloquies to let readers know more about him than his lady in peril. Edmondson writing is good, nothing special or flashy and gives reader enough information on Quinn and Alan to give them some depth but does the job of setting the tension, mood and the mystery at the end pique mine and hopefully other readers' interest to come back for issue two.
Nic Klein art is clear and well suited for this thriller of a tale. Though I felt at times his art resembled more to Sean Phillips, (Sleeper, Criminal, Fatale) and Michael Lark (Daredevil, Winter Solider) than his own style which does take away some of the enjoyment of his art because I would rather see Nic own style than someone elses.
This issue is very much the prototypical setup of the protagonist with a secret past that has caught up to him whom now he must flee his new life and drag some innocent bystander along. There really nothing new and all that engaging in the in the first 2/3 of the comic, is a very by the numbers chase through a city on foot to Alan's apartment. It is not until Alan identifies who his purser that makes you wonder what does Edmondson have planned for future issues and something I plan on sticking around to see where it goes. So when you sit down to read this issue, do not expect anything new, but think of it as the first act in Edmondson slow pulling the curtains back on his ballet.
Score: 7.5/10
by BlueStreak » Wed May 16, 2012 3:57 pmI liked it.
by bkthomson » Wed May 16, 2012 4:04 pm
Oh come on! There is more, right? Or am I overwriting.
by @dace1314 » Thu May 17, 2012 12:22 pmSo I guess we always review the first issue of new books eh? Makes sense for sure since not everyone would be properly caught up on a series that has been going on for awhile. But it's interesting because I think #1's are looked at in a different way from later issues in a series. We should be pretty could at determining what makes a good first issue after doing this for awhile. (Some of you probably are by now for this reason).
by BlueStreak » Thu May 17, 2012 12:25 pm
We don't always review first issues, but they tend to be a lot easier to review and attract new members with than issues farther along in the arc. The middle issue of an arc, for instance, might not make sense to those who don't follow the series.
by Garofani Spruzzo » Thu May 17, 2012 1:10 pmThis book ended rather abruptly, didn't it?
by guitarsmashley » Thu May 17, 2012 1:40 pm
only because it had odd pacing. The beginning is quick, the middle is a little slow then ramp up to the sudden end that didn't feel like a cliffhanger more of a missing page to the cliffhanger or it ended a page too late.
by Garofani Spruzzo » Thu May 17, 2012 1:45 pm
Yeah, I looked at least twice to make sure it was really the end, I don't think there were any real visual or narrative cues to tell for sure at first.
by bkthomson » Thu May 17, 2012 2:14 pm
Yeah, in trade it would not be a big deal, here it was very abrupt.
by Garofani Spruzzo » Thu May 17, 2012 2:34 pm
True about a trade, but if we've learned anything lately it's that writing for the trade won't matter a damn if you can't sell the monthly issues to enough people. And part of that sale is writing decent single issues--if I say to myself, "Hmm this would probably read better in trade" after this first issue, and everyone else thinks the same thing, the series may have a hard time making it to 12 issues. (Assuming this is an extended series and not a limited series.)
by bkthomson » Thu May 17, 2012 2:38 pm
Maybe missed the listing but I thought. It was a four to six issue series.
by Garofani Spruzzo » Thu May 17, 2012 3:01 pm
You may be right, but link?
I only know of the early promotion for the book where it was definitely described as a new "series" by Edmonson.
But even so, successful minis are often extended.
EDIT: Found later description as 5 issues.

NBC Exec: Think Of The Poor Corn Farmers Hurt By Movie Piracy
from the wait,-are-these-guys-serious? dept
"In the absence of movie piracy, video retailers would sell and rent more titles. Movie theatres would sell more tickets and popcorn. Corn growers would earn greater profits and buy more farm equipment."There are all sorts of problems with this statement. As Public Knowledge points out, first off, movie theaters are doing great this year, suggesting the big "threat" of piracy had a lot less to do with its troubles than the fact that it just didn't have that many compelling movies the past few years. Also, corn farmers are doing quite well (and people still eat popcorn at home while watching pirated movies). Of course, that doesn't really matter. What's key here is that if Cotton and NBC actually believe this logic, then they don't deserve to be in business. By the very same reasoning, I could say "If all movies were pirated, then everyone would have that additional money they didn't spend on movies to spend on things like fancy dinners. Restaurants would be more crowded. Farmers would make more money by being able to sell more profitable food at higher prices." See how easy it is? It's also completely bogus, but it's just as accurate as Cotton's statement on the corn farmers. To suggest that the ripple effects don't ripple in other directions isn't just misleading, it's dangerously wrong. Of course, knowing how the entertainment industry works, next thing you know, they'll be demanding a cut of the profits corn farmers make, since, after all they're "profiting off the backs of the movie industry" without paying the industry for the benefit.

Training for The Hunger Games has paid off for Jennifer Lawrence!
The 22-year-old actress showed off her toned, tanned bikini body while vacationing with her family in Maui, Hawaii, Nov. 21. Lawrence is in town to shoot additional scenes for Catching Fire, the second installment in the Hunger Games movie franchise.
Before filming begins, however, she'll be celebrating Thanksgiving with her loved ones. "My dad won't have a deep fryer, so I don't know what he's going to do," the Academy Award nominee joked to E! News.
Earlier this year, Lawrence admitted she doesn't enjoy working out nearly as much as her peers profess. "I hate saying, 'I like exercising.' I want to punch people who say that in the face," the Kentucky native told Glamour. "But it's nice being in shape for a movie, because they basically do it all for you. It's like, 'Here's your trainer. This is what you can eat.'"
"I don't diet," she clarified. "I do exercise! But I don't diet. You can't work when you're hungry, you know?"
Prior to arriving in Hawaii, Lawrence spent the last week promoting her new movie, Silver Linings Playbook, on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and The Tonight Show With Jay Leno. The film — which also stars Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro — is in theaters now.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Chip Kelly saw Zach Ertz do enough damage from the opposite sideline that he couldn't pass on coaching him.
The Philadelphia Eagles selected the Stanford tight end in the second round of the NFL draft on Friday night, giving Kelly another weapon for his up-tempo offense.
"I didn't relish coaching against him and I'm happy to have him here," Kelly said. "When you talk about what he can do, I saw it firsthand."
Ertz had 11 catches for 106 yards and caught the game-tying touchdown in Stanford's 17-14 win over Oregon last November that was the Ducks' only loss and knocked them out of contention for the national championship game. His TD reception initially was ruled incomplete, but was overturned on video review.
Kelly and Ertz joked about the catch during the combine. Ertz later sent Kelly a note thanking him for an interview, but added at a P.S. that said: "It was a catch."
"I had to get the last laugh," Ertz said.
The Eagles chose LSU defensive tackle Bennie Logan in the third round after addressing their offense with the first two picks.
Ertz, a 6-foot-5, 249-pound All-American, was chosen with the 35th overall pick. Offensive tackle Lane Johnson was Philadelphia's first choice at No. 4 in the first round.
"It's been awesome," general manager Howie Roseman said. "We're getting a lot of players we think have good value."
Ertz has drawn comparison to Dallas Pro Bowl tight end Jason Witten. He's considered a physical blocker, tough runner and solid route-runner. Ertz had 112 catches for 1,434 yards and 15 touchdowns in 37 games at Stanford.
"He's a mismatch nightmare," Kelly said. "He's a very smart player, really gives us a lot of flexibility."
Ertz was the second tight end selected behind Notre Dame's Tyler Eifert, who went to Cincinnati at No. 21.
"I think I'm a complete tight end," Ertz said. "I know Coach Kelly is a great offensive mind. I look forward to joining them. I can't ask for a better situation. The Eagles are a perfect fit for me."
Kelly said the Eagles were concerned San Francisco would take Ertz ahead of them at No. 31, but the 49ers traded the pick to Tennessee.
"He was tops on our board," Kelly said.
Logan, 6-foot-2 and 309 pounds, was the 67th overall pick. He had two sacks, forced two fumbles and made 45 tackles last year.
"He has the ability to be a three-down player," Kelly said. "We had him going in the second round. We're fortunate he was there."
Logan is considered a strong rusher with good upper-body strength and the ability to push the pocket inside.
The Eagles passed on West Virginia quarterback Geno Smith, who dropped out of the first round and went to the New York Jets at No. 39.
Philadelphia is coming off a 4-12 season that ended Andy Reid's 14-year tenure as coach. Kelly was lured away from Oregon to rebuild a struggling franchise that hasn't won a playoff games since 2008.
"I don't think you can go in and say: 'We need this, we need that,'" Kelly said. "I think if people do that, you get off schedule. You can't force it."
Eagles select Stanford TE Zach Ertz
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Chip Kelly saw Zach Ertz do enough damage from the opposite sideline that he couldn't pass on coaching him.

Do you have a recommendation for a cookbook in Japanese that has all the basics of Japanese home cooking plus lots of recipes - a sort of Japanese equivalent of Mrs Beeton's cookbook? Pref with some pictures, to help me with my fairly basic Japanese language skills, whicn I'm currently trying to brush up again. A few years ago I spent 4 months in a homestay in Sapporo and have kept a note of the tasty meals we ate most days - I'd like to re-create some of them, but haven't got a clue where to start. The cookbooks I've seen in English don't have a lot of the sort of things that we ate there. I've got quite a good Japanese store near me, which helps.
I bought both these books on Maki's recommendation and think they are excellent
The Homestyle book has the edge as my own rec. for a beginner.
I've looked through 'Washoku' but haven't yet bought it. I will soon though. I have a high regard for the author, Elizabeth Andoh. I just wish she hadn't made her measurements solely for the US market, I really loathe using recipes that demand 'cups' of things - I'm never sure I've got the correct conversion to metric and it drains all the joy from trying a recipe for me :(
I've known about Mrs Andoh for some time, but Risa took a cooking class with her recently and described her experience here:
I hope I can also attend one of her classes soon
I would stick to the books I recommended in the post that Loretta posted, for really authentic washoku recipes (traditional Japanese); although Elizabeth Andoh's book is very comprehensive, to me it's almost overkill and intimidating. Another one that is very popular and more 'contemporary' is Harumi Kurihara's book Harumi's Everyday Cooking (Amazon UK; Amazon.com). A classic which, to my mind may be more accessible even now (though it was written originally I like more than 2 decades ago) than Washoku is Japanese Cooking: A Simple Art (Amazon UK link) by Shizuo Tsuji. Definitely one to have on an English language Japanese cooking bookshelf.
Also, please check out Just Hungry for my interpretations of Japanese recipes - and feel free to request recipes to post too ^_^ (though it sometimes takes me weeks/months even years to finally post them...)
The Big Onigiri.

A classic which, to my mind may be more accessible even now (though it was written originally I like more than 2 decades ago) than Washoku is Japanese Cooking: A Simple Art (Amazon UK link) by Shizuo Tsuji. Definitely one to have on an English language Japanese cooking bookshelf.
If you're interested in checking this book out, there's a very useful Google facility that lets you have a very thorough preview:
It's a shame there isn't a similar way to demonstrate how clear and approachable the photo instructions are in Tokiko Suzuki's books.
Thanks, Loretta and Maki, for the recommendations, and especially the useful link to the Google books site, which I didn't know about. I've ordered Homestyle Cooking and the Simple Art books, as both look very good. I wondered though, Maki, if you also had a recommendation for a similarly good Japanese cookbook in Japanese, since I wanted to use it partly as a tool to improve my reading of Japanese - I have made it a personal challenge for this year to be able to cook a complete meal from Japanese recipes before the end of the year!

The NFL plans to take what investigators learn in the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombing and incorporate it into its security plans for the cold-weather Super Bowl at MetLife Stadium.
The league said Tuesday that it has raised its security levels for all its games and events since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in 2001. For the past two years, it been working closely with federal, state and municipal agencies developing a comprehensive security plan for the Super Bowl, which will be played in the shadow of New York City.
"We do not comment on specifics of these programs but continue to review and evolve our plans to ensure the safety of everyone attending the Super Bowl," the league said in a statement.

Home Zone: How green can you go
by Maggie Reed
Keeping our lives, and our homes, green is at the top of most lists these days. But just how good are you at being green?
Check your score at GoGreenScore.org, a free survey designed to help discover the greenness of your current lifestyle.
"When I took other online questionnaires, I was shocked at how many earths it would take if everyone lived like me," said Lynate Pettengill, co-founder of GoGreenScore.org.
Only taking a few minutes, the survey is designed to promote a positive outlook on the situation. Not only does it ask questions, it also provides answers with dozens of links to "Live Green Tips."
"I thought I lived a pretty darn green lifestyle already. It didn't motivate me to make any more changes; it made me want to give it up. So that's why we came up with a fun way to let people know how green they're currently living, and how easy it would be to make a change or two to help out our troubled planet," said Pettengill.
GoGreenScore.org offers the following tips to live green and suggests reviewing them from time to time. They may seem simple, but each and every change makes a big difference:
— Recycle your waste instead of throwing it in the trash can.
— Use your own bags at the store.
— Set your air conditioner at 78 degrees or higher and your heater at 64 degrees or lower.
— Use your own water bottles instead of buying bottled water from the store.
— Turn off lights and other appliances when you're not using them.
— Drive a fuel-efficient car.
— Plan your trips efficiently so you drive fewer miles.
— Use public transportation, walk or ride your bike when running errands.
— Buy your food from local sources.
— Purchase organic food.
— Don't use chemicals on your lawn.
— Choose compact fluorescent bulbs for your home.
— Hang your clothes to dry instead of using a dryer.
— Before making any purchases, ask yourself, "Do I really need this?"
— Minimize the amount of meat you consume.
— Utilize all-natural cleaning products in your home.
— Donate to not-for-profit organizations working to protect the environment, and contact your senators or representatives regarding environmental policies.
To check your green score, visit www.gogreenscore.org.
For those quirky, gadget-loving people among us, "Gadget Nation: A Journey Through the Eccentric World of Invention" by Steve Greenberg is a must-have. Greenberg is an invention groupie, born into a family of patent filers. His fascination with America's garage inventors led him to write this book.
Here's just a smattering of what's found in this fascinating read:
— Bird diapers: The YouTube video says it all.
— Motorized ice cream cone: Give your tongue a rest. Just load it and switch it on. The cone turns and does all the work.
— Mop flops: These attach to your feet and mop as you walk. True multitasking.
— Talking toilet paper dispenser: You can record a message of up to nine seconds. When the toilet paper is pulled, the sensor sets off the message. It is also easy to rerecord with the push of a button. Just think of the fun!
— Slippers with headlights: That's right, never stub your toe or wake others up when you have to get up during the night. Slip these on in order to light your way.

One in 110 children is now diagnosed as having an autism spectrum disorder. The numbers have grown to the point where "everyone knows someone affected" by the neurodevelopmental disorder, characterized by communication problems and repetitive behaviors, said Vania O'Keefe, president of the Tidewater Autism Society. Her son was diagnosed with autism at age 3.
She participated on a panel of experts on the third show of a three-part series for HealthWatch, moderated by Terrance Afer-Anderson, at WHRO-TV studios in Norfolk on Monday. The panel, with physicians John Harrington and Eric Madren, both fathers of sons with autism, and Maria Urbano, co-director of an autism spectrum disorder program for teens and young adults at Eastern Virginia Medical School, explored the status of autism's diagnosis and treatment and took questions from the studio audience.
The experts attributed the rapid growth in numbers on the autism spectrum, as recorded by the Centers for Disease Control, to earlier and better diagnosis and a broader designation. All advocated for the earliest intervention possible. "Autism is treatable," said O'Keefe. Audience member Todd Humphrey, whose 4-year-old son receives speech therapy, occupational therapy and applied behavioral therapy (ABA), said that in eight months his son had gone from complete withdrawal to having a conversation. "His future is looking bright," he said. "It's proof of the importance of therapy."
Though the Virginia legislation approved insurance coverage for ABA therapy in 2011 for a limited age range — and with exceptions for small companies and self-insurers — its implementation has been stalled by additional licensing requirements for therapists, said O'Keefe.
Richard and Maxine Popik, grandparents of two girls on the autism spectrum, emphasized the importance of social interaction for the children and commended the Tidewater Autism Society for the opportunities it provides. Urbano concurred and said there's also a need to reduce the waiting time for services through the state Department for Aging and Rehabilitative Services, which can often last up to one year. She's an advocate for better vocational education, and frustrated by not being able to offer adult patients appropriate activities and resources. "It would be nice to prescribe those other pieces," she said.
John Harrington, director of general academic pediatrics at Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters, cited anomalies in the Virginia school system; for example, his 17-year-old son, Sean, has enjoyed a landscaping class at his high school this year, but if he were to take the class again next year, he would not be allowed to participate on the swim team, where he's a competitive participant. The Harringtons moved from New York, where Sean received ABA therapy through the school system.
"Getting the diagnosis is very terrifying, a very isolating experience. All parents have the same issues," said O'Keefe. "They want services for their children and a way to pay for them." The Tidewater Autism Society, TAS, has started a one-on-one program in which staff meets with families to establish a roadmap on how to navigate the issues. "They know they're not alone. They leave with hope," she said. For a year now, TAS has also been taking its program, GFF (Good Friend Forever) to schools, to Boy Scout meetings, and to church groups, to teach neurotypical children about autism spectrum disorder and how they can be supportive of their peers.
In the future, family physician Madren believes that treatments will be much more diverse for those on the autism spectrum. "Thirty years from now, we'll say 'what were doing treating it all the same?'" he mused. Urbano, who is involved in two clinical trials testing new medications, anticipates that there will be a breakthrough regarding its cause in the next 10 years. "Progress in psychiatric genetics is very exciting," she said.

Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook momentarily created a stir at the company's shareholder meeting on Friday by saying he was prepared to introduce some new products.
"I'm just kidding," Cook said, as the Wall Street Journal reported. "I gotta have some fun."
The gathering turned out to be a ho-hum event even though Cook did tout some recent Apple gains, including Apple TV generating a billion in revenue.
"No fireworks as expected," BGC Partners analyst Colin Gillis told MarketWatch.
On Wall Street, the stock traded mostly flat, shedding a fraction to close at $526.24, although the shares ended the week with a fractional gain.
Still, Cook's joke about unwrapping new products, and the excitement it briefly generated underscored Apple's dilemma.
Some of its core markets are showing signs of slowing, as it also faces stiffer competition from the likes of Google, Samsung and smaller mobile device manufacturers in Asia.
Apple managed to avoid a full-blown proxy war with billionaire Carl Icahn, but the battle did raise questions about the company's growth trajectory.
"Smartphone market growth is decelerating," Gillis said. "It will ultimately grind down to mid-single digits. Apple has to get their next category ready."
Gillis said that would probably be "wearables," referring to such devices as smartwatches.
There were rumors that Apple might enter the automobile market by buying Tesla. That actually would have made sense a couple of years ago, Gillis argued, noting the many ways Tesla would be a good match for Apple. But Gillis said, "That train has left," given the way Tesla's stock has taken off.
The stock lingered in the $20-$30 range for a long time, the stock only really started moving about a year ago," he added. "If Apple wanted to get involved they had plenty of time to do so."
But analysts agree that Apple and Cook are aware of the concern about growth, even though they didn't really reveal anything at the meeting.
"This is not rally the forum for a product announcement," Gillis said.
"The reality is they didn't say a lot," Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster told MarketWatch. But he said Cook "knows that the theme is the lack of innovation he is subtly trying to address that."
Perhaps, even by joking about it.

We need it stressed that we have office in Fort Smith and Jonesboro, Arkansas.
You can base your designs off of their project that was at the following link:
The folder and all sheets must match and follow the same general design. We will pass these folders out sometimes with all sheets and sometimes only 1 or 2.
Our logo is here: http://www.box.net/shared/qnza8jhj6x
We actually have a better version of our logo coming and may have the winner implement the new logo into the final design.
Good luck! We are looking forward to seeing the designs!

The President fielded questions from audience members, many of whom were farmers. Rock Katschsnig, a 3,500 acre corn and soybean farmer from Prophetstown, Ill., expressed his concerns with potential regulations on dust and noise pollution. He told the president that he'd rather start his day in a tractor cab or combine cab than filling out needless paperwork. "We hear what's coming down about dust pollution, noise pollution, water run off...sometimes the best approach is common sense and we're already using that," Katchsnig told the President. In response, Obama said, don't always believe what you hear. He encouraged Katchsnig to check out the facts for himself and "if you ever have a question in place that is going to make it harder for you to farm, call USDA directly. Find out what it is you're concerned about and my suspicion is a lot of times, they're going to be able to answer your questions." On the ethanol front, an 11-year old boy in attendance asked the President what he would do to ensure ethanol remains a viable fuel source. Obama said he was committed to biofuels, but appeard to be more confident in the future of cellolosic ethanol and was less positive about the corn-based alternative fuel. Back to news

MADRID (MarketWatch) -- Goldman Sachs raised its 12-month price target on Facebook Inc. FB, +1.17% to $38 from $35 on Thursday. In a note, Goldman said it sees upside for the fourth quarter earnings that Facebook is due to report on Jan. 30, owing to a continued strong ramp in News Feed adds, along with its new Gifts services. "We believe our estimate of $404 million in revenue from News Feed ads may prove too conservative," the analysts said in a research note. It said the Gifts segment could represent $20 million to $45 million in payments revenue that's not included in the analysts' current fourth-quarter estimates. Goldman expects Facebook to report fourth-quarter revenue of $1.49 billion and adjusted earnings per share of 14 cents.
