Confirmed: Geoff Johns Is the New President of DC Entertainment
Comic Books, Film, TV
Here are three June releases from Drawn and Quarterly: Kevin Huizenga's Gloriana, Chester Brown's Ed The Happy Clown and Dan Zettwoch's Birdseye Bristoe.
They have several things in common, aside from the fact that they are all hardcover releases from the same publisher. They are all handsomely designed, for example, they all make lovely coffee table and bookshelf-filling objects, and they are all more or less important comics releases.
One of them is different in several significant ways, however.
The Brown book, which collects a series of strips that quickly evolved into a complete graphic novel from the pages of Brown's 1980s cult classic Yummy Fur, lacks any fold-out pages.
Gloriana, which features several Glenn Ganges stories, has a four-page, horizontal fold-out of a key sequence in a story that deconstructs a moment in a time down to a molecular, cubist-like level, practically atomizing the comics page into a sort of Guernica of a comic book.
Birdseye Bristoe, the debut graphic novel of a promising new talent about the construction of a gigantic, Tower of Babel-sized cellphone tower in a small rural community, features a vertical, two-page fold-out diagram of the tower.
The Brown book, which does feature plenty of fairly fantastic-to-the-point-of-insane visual subject matter (ghosts, vampires, cannibal pygmies, Frankenstein, mad scientists, a severed self-ambulatory hand, naked ladies, a man who can't stop defecating, a talking penis with the head of President Reagan who Brown draws to look nothing like Ronald Reagan, etc.), contains absolutely no drawings of Gamera, the giant turtle monster who starred in the 1960s cycle of Japanese giant-monster films.
This fact, on its own, isn't too terribly remarkable, as a lot of comic books do not feature drawings of Gamera. However, Gloriana and Birdseye Bristoe both do.
In Gloriana, Huizenga uses Gamera as an example of an extremely large object when discussing how the human eye and perception work during a story in which his protagonist Glenn Ganges explains why the moon looks huge and red to some neighbors one night:
In Birdseye Bristoe, Gamera appears in a panel illustrating part of character Clint Murgatroyd's report on geodesic domes:
Brown's Ed The Happy Clown differs from the other two books in another, perhaps more relevant to our purposes here, way: I didn't care for it at all, while I really loved the other two.
Gloriana is another example of Huizenga doing what he does best, extrapolating epic events and consequences out of the most mundane subjects one can imagine: Carrying groceries in from the car, talking to your spouse while unpacking the groceries, having a phone conversation with a friend, noticing the moon one night. The aforementioned sequence, the one that's so expansive it includes a fold-out, is summarized in a single line of dialogue: "Earlier I was at the library and the sun was setting."
Birdseye Bristoe is probably the most tremendously exciting of the books, as it is from a relatively new creator, and is big, bright and colorful — the artwork, as well as the characters and storytelling. A cellphone company wants to put a tower into the titular area, and the old guy who owns the land they want to put it on agrees, so long as they meet a few conditions. Meanwhile, his great-niece and great-nephew arrive to spend the summer with him. Zettowoch tells the story by repeatedly breaking it into sections and running gags, usually presented as something appearing in the journals of one of the two teenagers. Krystal draws maps and illustrated lists, offers a tour of her uncle's bungee cord and two-liter pop bottle inventions and interviews various characters. Clint makes little reports on various subjects. Zettowoch includes recipes and quizzes. The narrative is fast, funny and propulsive, but the experience of reading it is even better — it's fun.
Ed The Happy Clown, however, is an awful bummer. After a few stop-and-start strips involving the title character, some scientists, some masked policemen and a Chester Brown avatar, a bigger, more ambitious narrative gradually begins to take shape, but it's pretty tough reading. I made it through Brown's graphic novel about having sex with prostitutes just fine, despite some misgivings here and there (especially at the resolution and throughout the prose end-section), but a lot of the content here is violent and scatalogical in the extreme.
Brown may draw, say, a room full of feces, or a semen-soaked hand or the head of a bald, jowly man attached to the end of a clowns penis vomiting very well, but that doesn't really make them things I enjoy looking at. I don't want to condemn the book purely on content, of course; do note that a cartoonist like Johnny Ryan could draw the same things, or grosser things, and the pictures will come out funny, or at least amusing, because of Ryan's slick, classic cartoonist style. At this early point in Brown's career, his style couldn't really transcend and transform the subject matter, and most of the time, he doesn't seem to be going for laughs or anything anyway.
I felt kind of defeated by the book, to be honest; I didn't like it, it was hard for me to read, and I have trouble finding redeeming qualities to it. Aside from the obvious one: It provides a collection of the work of a great and important cartoonist. Certainly its far from his best work, but here it all is, easily accessible, and discussed at great (even tedious) length by the cartoonist himself in copious end notes. Brown's a cartoonist whose work should all be easily available, to provide context for the rest of it, so I'm glad this book exists, even if I don't like it.
But more importantly? It could have used a Gamera cameo.
Something else the other two books have in common: their creators are both from St. Louis (REPRESENT!!!) and up until last week, both Zettwoch and Huizenga worked together on a fun strip called "Amazing Facts…and Beyond! with Leon Beyond" for the Riverfront Times.
That Chester Brown book sounds awful, especially when you say there's things in there Johnny Ryan could have done better, as I generally can't stand Ryan's stuff, either. I did enjoy Brown's "I Never Liked You," but that sounds like a completely different animal than "Ed."
I think one "problem" with ED is that it really shouldn't be judged as a Graphic Novel — it was, what, 16 or so issues of YUMMY FUR, the periodical comic, and it was CLEARLY being made up as it was going along (in that, I think it suffers some of the same afflictions as LIKE A VELVET GLOVE does for Clowes)
At the time this was originally coming out (I'm sorry, Johnny WHO?) this was… well maybe not revelatory, per se, but certainly absolutely and completely unlike any other work that was coming out at the time, and it's restless, hallucinatory, absurdist qualities really made it stand out.
I think ED is really built to be read in 12 or 16 page chunks — it's almost like an episode of MONTY PYTHON then.
As Brian Hibbs notes, ED wasn't intended to be a GN as much as a running experiment– in fact, it began as a motivational exercise by Brown to do more than an average of a panel a week, his output prior to the publication of the first YF 'ziine / mini.
While a great deal of the material may be sociologically & psychosexually cockeyed, it was also very much a purging of the id on par with R. Crumb. It wasn't intended to shock anyone other than Chester himself. He hadn't set out to make a GN, but the story decided it wanted to be a book. I think Chester was as disquieted by this as anyone, hence the variations in how ED ends, depending on whether you read the individual comix or its multiple collected editions. It's awkward, but I think that's inherently the nature of the book.
The fact that ED's stuck around this long is significant in my eyes; yes, there are prettier examples of Chester's work– Riel cannot be topped for clean-line brush technique –but it's among the most unintentionally honest & aesthetically unhinged, off-off-broadway-by-way-of-Canada indy art to emerge from the '80s. Brown trained himself to be an artist via ED, and YF was his dojo.
To dismiss ED as not being fun or experimental enough by comparing it to work of more recent vintage does the work, and Chester Brown, something of a disservice. I grant you, ED *is* a matter of taste– but it's also a matter of context. I doubt we'd have the published alternatives available today if it weren't for Brown slugging it out with his own id back in '83.
And we certainly wouldn't have those tasty 1963 Image comix. Or Louis Riel. ED has its place in comix history, and I believe that place is well-deserved, if not exactly god-tier.

How do you say yes to yourself?
By allowing desire to be your compass and the wind that fills your sails and asking the mind to be the servant of the heart. In our culture we ask the heart to obey the mind, and it can't because it is something so vast the mind can't even comprehend it. Just let go, say Yes!

I said it earlier on Priyanka's topic and saying it again...At present I am completely against this remarriage track...I didn't want my couple to get married under such suffocating atmosphere with all the RM lunatics doing merry go round surrounding constipated Bhootni.!!
I still cant believe that creatives actually dared to come up with such an episode!!... what were they thinking? how much will they experiment with the show and it's essence? Moreover how much nonsensical tracks r they planning to make for the future?? WTH !!!!!! what sort of twisted mentality do the Cvs have?

Have you just moved from working on one gene to working on a similar one and wonder which primers you can still use for your PCR? Do you subclone and rearrange sequences and somewhere along the line lost track on which primer to use where? Have you started in a new lab, inherited a box of oligos and a folder full of printouts that came with them but no information on what they were ordered for? Have you ordered and waited for primers because you don't know which of the ones available you can use with your sequence? If any of these sound familiar then OligoChecker might be for you.

|Years active
|Associated acts
Yuri Chinen (知念 侑李 Chinen Yūri?, born November 30, 1993), is a Japanese actor, talent, voice actor and singer as well as member of Hey! Say! JUMP. He is under the management of Johnny & Associates.[1][2]
Early life[edit]
Chinen was born in Hammamatsu, Japan, the son of Takashi Chinen (born 1967), a Japanese former gymnast who won a bronze medal in the 1992 Summer Olympics.[3] He is named after Yuri Osawa, an announcer, whose name his mother liked, but is written with different characters; the yu is a character often used in girl's names (侑 yū) and the ri is taken from Li (李), a surname his mother thought common among Chinese gold medalist gymnasts.[4]
On June 2, 2003, Yuri entered Johnny & Associates as a trainee. Daiki Arioka, who would later debut as a member of the same group, was also there during that time. On April 3, 2007, he began activities with Hey! Say! 7 starting with a public performance at a KAT-TUN concert.
On September 21, 2007, he began performing as a member of Hey! Say! JUMP.
He was in a 2008 drama, One-Pound Gospel, as "Yoshihiko" in Episode 3, with Hey! Say! JUMP member Ryosuke Yamada and their senior, Kazuya Kamenashi (KAT-TUN). In the same year, he played in the drama Sensei wa erai! as Umeno Wataru, along with other Hey! Say! JUMP members: Yuto Nakajima, Ryosuke Yamada and Daiki Arioka. In October 2008, he was in the drama called Scrap Teacher: Kyoshi Saisei as Yoshida Eitaro, along with other Hey! Say! JUMP members that played with him in Sensei wa erai!.
As a supporter of the Japanese volleyball team for the FIVB World Grand Prix 2009, he performed in June 2009 with Ryosuke Yamada and Nakayama Yuma w/ B.I.Shadow, which is composed of Kento Nakajima, Kikuchi Fuma, Hokuto Matsumura and Yugo Kochi as members of the temporary group NYC Boys. The "C" of NYC boys comes from the initials of his family name "Chinen".[5]
On March 2, 2010, a press release made by Johnny and Associates revealed that Chinen and Yamada would become members of a second Johnny's unit, NYC. They are currently working as a member of both Hey! Say! JUMP and NYC, which is a rarity in their talent agency. Ryo Nishikido (and formerly Uchi Hiroki) is the only such case of a Johnny's talent officially debuting in two groups (Kanjani8 and NEWS), and as NYC became an officially debuted Johnny's unit, Yamada and Chinen joined them in this unusual situation.
In January 2012, Chinen co-starred with his sempai Yamashita Tomohisa in a drama called Saiko no Jinsei no Owarikata~Ending Planner, where he played Yamashita's younger brother. Chinen's character in the drama was a university student who was so focused on helping out a friend to the point of stealing money from his family's business. Maeda Atsuko and Eikura Nana joined the cast.
In June 2012, It was announced that Chinen will have his first lead-role drama series based on the manga Sprout, by Atsuko Nanba, on July 7 on NTV. He will be with Aoi Morikawa, A.B.C-Z's Ryosuke Hashimoto, Mayuko Kawakita, Fujiiko Kojima, Johnny's Jr.'s Jesse Lewis and Juri Tanaka. Chinen also said, "I'm more nervous than usual, but I want to enjoy playing my role. I will do my best to make people's hearts throb."
In April 2013, Chinen won the 2012 Drama of the Year award under the category Best New Comer (actor) for his role in Saiko no Jinsei no Owarikata~Ending Planner and Sprout.

When building a football squad, teams tend to look for a quarterback first. Teams want to find that franchise guy who can run the offense the coaches have spent years polishing and trying to perfect. Once you have the quarterback, you need a franchise runner to take pressure off him. It has been said many times: If you don't have a running game to take pressure off the quarterback, he will get killed back there in the pocket. The NFL is a scoring league, so you know you have to find a big-play receiver who can stretch the field. A receiver who can do that will take the pressure off the entire offense. If he can get vertical, it will prevent teams from dropping an eighth defender down in the box to stop the run game.
Often overlooked in the big picture of the entire offense are the linemen. The guys you can always find in the team parking lot because they have the biggest trucks. The guys who are usually at the front of the lunch line when it's chow time. The guys who are so close you usually can find nine of them sitting together at a table that was meant for only six. The guys who usually don't get any credit when LaDainian Tomlinson or Priest Holmes is on his way to another 100-yard day. The group that isn't mentioned unless the quarterback is under pressure and getting sacked. The group that knows it is getting the job done when it isn't mentioned on TV or in the newspaper. Yes, these guys are the offensive line ... the most underappreciated group on the field each Sunday.
Here is a look at four teams with differing offensive line issues that must be addressed if the teams are going to reach their potential this season.

No matter how TV has changed and will change again over the years, if there is a genre that has no need to reinvent itself, that genre is comedy. The only thing that a good comedy really needs is a small, cozy room full of great and enthusiast writers.
I'm well aware that Leslie Knope is a fictitious character. However, through Amy Poehler's enthusiasm and witty inclusion of feminist principles, Leslie is brought to life. Leslie Knope is the complete embodiment of feminism.
Since the place was reborn in 1979 under the direction of the new Radio City Musical Hall Productions, the Spring Spectacular has been reliably perky, friendly, and leaning towards mass-market bland.
As I watched the series finale of Parks and Recreation this week I was overwhelmed with the sense that Leslie was giving me permission to try and care as much as I can.
Parks and Rec will also always remind me of the coolness, calmness and contentment of a windy summer night under foreign comforters that became my own when I realized what it means to have a favorite TV show.
She tackles these double standards head-on, questioning the way we traditionally judge women. Leslie (and that sweet, sweet hubby Ben) show us how sexist assumptions make a mockery of not just women but men as well and ultimately act as a disservice to all of us.
On October 11, 1975 NBC's Saturday Night with host George Carlin debuted on NBC. At the time, ABC had a program called Saturday Night Live with Howar...
As empowering as it is to feel oh-so-scandalous and a little bit naughty...as charming as it seems to be the star of someone else's fantasy...pull t...
I know some might consider it bad form to break up with you right before Valentine's Day, but I have too much respect for you to fake it. Plus, I promised at the beginning of our pretend relationship four days ago, that I would always keep it real.
Whether we like it or not, kids and teens look to celebrities for inspiration on how to look, act, speak, and more. Their inspiring stories, personal triumphs, self-acceptance, and decisions to speak out against the industry's standard of beauty and size has us sitting up and taking notice -- and we hope this is a trend we see more of.
Immediately after hosts Fey and Poehler did their Bill Cosby routine -- their most talked-about bit of the night -- comedian Barry Sobel's Facebook page lit up with dozens of folks posting that the duo did his routine, almost verbatim.
As our lives take a turn this way and that, with expected milestones and unexpected setbacks, my hope is that we are involved not so much in the business of drawing lines, but expend our efforts investing in the search for our people.
Self-published titles comprise twenty percent of this week's Digital Book World Ebook Best-Seller List, the same share as last week. But now three of them are inside the top ten.
This week's attacks on Dunham show that many in the media are not quite as enlightened in their ability to allow female writers to have ownership over their own narratives. By questioning Dunham's agency to decide what's worth talking about and shaming her for not being ashamed of herself, they are missing the purpose of her work.
I had the electric experience of sitting down with Amy Poehler as part of AOL BUILD, in which she shared her quick-witted blend of humor and wisdom on a wide range of topics including her career advice.
With all due respect, this positive progress report on Women in Comedy is a tribute to Joan Rivers. She persevered to pave the path for generations of funny women. Rivers auditioned seven times over three years, before making her Tonight Show debut in 1965.

Boldin: Harbaugh played 'big role' in contract extension
Boldin: 'I don't think anybody in our locker room has issue with Harbaugh'
Wide receiver Anquan Boldin passed on an opportunity to test the free-agent market for the first time in his NFL career in large part because of 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh, he said.
Boldin signed a two-year, $12 million contract extension with the 49ers on Monday, five days before he would have been allowed to begin negotiating with other teams.
"He had a big role in me coming back," Boldin said of Harbaugh in a conference call with Bay Area reporters. "He's a guy I had a real good relationship with.
"And I just like his demeanor, the way he approaches the game. He's a guy that wants to win. I'm the exact same way. So I think we mesh pretty good."
And if there's discord among 49ers players in the locker room -- as the San Francisco Chronicle reported, citing a source with "inside knowledge of the team" -- that's news to one of the winner of the Bill Walsh Award as the 49ers MVP and one of the most respected veteran players on the team.
[RATTO: Leak makes for tenuous marriage between Harbaugh, 49ers]
"I don't think anybody in the locker room has an issue with Coach Harbaugh," Boldin said. "The way our locker room is built, we have an open-door policy. If anybody has a concern or wants to voice their opinion, they're more than welcome to.
"There have been times we have voiced our concerns as players, and Coach Harbaugh has listened to us and taken into consideration how we felt as players."
Boldin added, "I don't think there's any rift between players and coaches, particularly Coach Harbaugh. Like I said, he has a great rapport with all of the guys that I know of. I heard of no griping in the locker room when it comes to Coach Harbaugh."

It's tough to remember a more polarizing Washington Redskins free agent than Brian Orakpo. Is he worth a big contract? Is he really that good? You can see that polarization when it came to our Redskins Nation poll: 81.4 percent of those responding said they wanted Orakpo back.
Ah, but there's a catch. Of that 81.4 percent, only 45.4 percent were willing to pay him more than $9 million per season (including two who suggested the franchise tag, which is expected to be about $10.9 million).
There were eight votes for paying him $8 million a year or less, which, in essence, is a no. There is little chance Orakpo would be re-signed for such a figure.
Not every team would want to pay him $10 million a year simply because he lacks enough game-changing plays (six forced fumbles, one interception). But with the salary cap increasing, and the need for pass-rushers always high -- and few available this offseason, especially at outside linebacker -- it's tough to see him getting less than what Cleveland handed Paul Kruger a year ago ($8.1 million per year).
Yes, the market can sometimes correct itself, but Orakpo is a more proven player than Kruger, was so it's not the same situation. Orakpo is not Clay Matthews, but there is little chance he sees himself as being worth $5 million a year less than his Green Bay counterpart, who received a $13-million-a-year extension last offseason.
I think the Redskins will have a hard time paying him $10 million per year. If they do so, I think in some quarters of the building it will be done reluctantly.
Five people said they would bring him back for no more than $7 million a year. They should have done what Nancy Reagan suggested long ago: Just say no. But it certainly gives you an idea of what they felt about his value.
Back to the survey: So if it takes at least $9 million per year? Then the number of those who want him back drops to 37.3 percent.
Some said they would sign Orakpo at the right price, but didn't give a price. Those responses couldn't be used because, well, we're trying to figure out what you think that price is or should be. Hard to say if that is a yes or a no.
One participant, @prog314, summed up some of the conflicted thoughts in a series of tweets: "I don't want to pay him. But, I fear a situation where you have to replace 3 out of 4 lbers in the 3-4 system. 8 mil is..overkill, but it may be a necessary evil. He needs to be on a contract that takes his injuries into account ... On top of that, who would replace these voids? I would love Dansby, but him and Cards are working on contract. Not a ... lot of good pass rushers to take his spot either. However, ILB is more important in my opinion."

Brown & Toland and the Medicare Pioneer ACO Program
Brown & Toland Physicians, a network of more than 1,500 San Francisco Bay Area physicians, was one of the original 32 healthcare organizations asked to participate in the Medicare Pioneer Accountable Care Organization (ACO) program when the initiative was first launched in late 2011. The Medicare ACO program was established by the Affordable Care Act and is administered by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
The Medicare ACO program is designed to improve the health of Medicare beneficiaries. CMS selected certain Medicare beneficiaries to receive ACO program services at no additional cost.
Participants in Brown & Toland's Medicare ACO program received, at no additional cost:
Comprehensive, coordinated, and seamless care between doctors, specialists, and other health care providers;
Post-hospitalization or discharge assistance, such as home visits from a trained patient advocate, to help Medicare ACO beneficiaries connect with your doctor, help you understand your medications, or set up additional services you may need;
Chronic disease care instruction and educational programs for you and your caregivers; and
Health coaches and patient advocates to help you access follow-up health care services.
In three years, Brown & Toland generated more than $17 million in savings for the Medicare program, and quality scores for the population of patients in the Pioneer program improved annually.
In addition to the Pioneer program, Brown & Toland also supports its physicians and patients with a variety of care programs, such as chronic care management programs, health coaching, and post-hospitalization at-home services, to improve care. Brown & Toland also participates in a number of accountable care projects for HMO and PPO patients.

PAJU, South Korea, July 11 (Yonhap) -- South Korea on Thursday unveiled a men's national football roster featuring stars from last year's London Olympics for an upcoming continental tournament it will host.
The men's squad for the July 20-28 East Asian Cup will have 23 players, five of whom helped South Korea win the bronze medal in London last summer.
Hong Myung-bo, the national team head coach, served as the bench boss for the Olympic squad last year and guided the country to its first Olympic football medal.
Organized by the East Asian Football Federation (EAFF), the round-robin event will bring together South Korea, Japan, Australia and China on the men's side. South Korea will face Australia on July 20 in Seoul, China on July 24 in Hwaseong and Japan on July 28 in Seoul.
South Korea typically names about a dozen players from overseas leagues for international matches. However, European seasons kick off in August and pro clubs there aren't obligated to release their international players for the East Asian Cup so close to the start of their new seasons.
Head coach Hong Myung-bo this month attended several games in the K League Classic, the first division in South Korea, to scout players and for the most part, he went back to some of his former pupils in London based in South Korea, Japan and China.
Park Jong-woo of Busan IPark in the K League Classic headlines the list of Olympic heroes. The previously unheralded Park provided a strong defensive presence in midfield for South Korea in London, and also made international headlines for his controversial celebration of South Korea's victory over Japan in the bronze medal contest.
Kim Chang-soo of Kashiwa Reysol in Japan's J. League and Kim Young-gwon of Guangzhou Evergrande in the Chinese Super League, two defensive backs from the London squad, will also dress for the East Asian Cup. Other Olympic members on this squad are goalkeeper Lee Beom-young and defensive back Hwang Seok-ho.
Defenders Hong Jeong-ho of Jeju United and Jang Hyun-soo of FC Tokyo, and midfielder Han Kook-young of Shonan Bellmare in Japan, also made the East Asian Cup team. These players initially made the Olympic team but were replaced before or during the Games after suffering injuries.
Among the familiar names for the East Asian Cup are starting goalkeeper Jung Sung-ryong of Suwon, who has played in 47 international matches, and Ulsan striker Kim Shin-wook, a mainstay for South Korea during the regional qualification for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.
Overall, 14 players are from the K League Classic and one is from the second-division K League Challenge. Seven players are based in the J. League and one plays in China.
This will be the first international competition as the national team head coach for Hong, who succeeded Choi Kang-hee last month, after South Korea qualified for the World Cup.
South Korea barely squeezed into the World Cup, with its qualification tournament marred by a string of subpar matches. At a news conference at the National Football Center in Paju, Hong said the East Asian Cup will be the opportunity for the national team "to regain the fans' trust" in South Korean football.
"I selected players that I felt will be competitive for the World Cup next year," Hong said. "Most of the players spent a couple of years with me. And since I know how much they've grown over time, I know how much they can improve over the next year."
Of 23 players, only five have made at least 10 international appearances. Hong said he didn't focus on players' past experience and only considered their potential for improvement.
"The competition (for roster spots for the World Cup) will begin right now," the coach said. "National team veterans will all have to go back to scratch and battle new players."
The big test will be the much-anticipated showdown against the regional rival Japan on July 28. Even though Japan is expected to field a team of young players, any South Korea-Japan clash in football generates plenty of interest.
South Korea won the inaugural East Asian Cup in 2003 and added the second title in 2008. This will be the fifth East Asian Cup for men.
On the FIFA rankings for men, Japan is the highest-ranked participant at No. 37, followed by Australia at No. 40 and South Korea at No. 43. China is 100th.
The East Asian Cup will also have the women's competition, with South Korea, North Korea, Japan and China in action. The North Korean women's team will make its first trip to South Korea since the 2005 East Asian Cup.
The last time any North Korean sports team played on South Korean soil was April 1, 2009, when the two Koreas clashed in Seoul for an Asian qualifying match for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. South Korea prevailed 1-0.
This is the fourth East Asian Cup for women. South Korea took the inaugural title in 2005 and Japan won the next two in 2008 and in 2010.
In the latest women's FIFA world rankings, Japan is the highest-ranked country among the East Asian Cup participants at No. 3, followed by North Korea at No. 9, South Korea at 16th and China at 17th.

RIP Bert Sugar, even though I never agreed with a lot of what he said (particularly his ludicrous over-rating of Jack Dempsey.) he was a cool guy to listen to and could string a story together like no other.

Mr.Sugar was a old school sports writer first then a boxing fan! He had opinions based on experiences in the sport and was old enough to see the great fighters from the late 30s up till now. I always found him to be a gentlman and the hat & cigar was to draw attention to himself for an effect, his opinions however were honestly his and the man knew the legendary fighters, trainers, managers, promotors and matchmakers which puts his opinions highly above the people who don't know anyone in boxing! HA! Ray.

I don't mind that he hates me. It puts us on equal terms. But I do resent the outright lies about all those great fighters from the past who I supposedly trashed.

A five piece Metal hardcore band from South Wales.
Kerrang magazine describes Continents sound as, "Energy-fueled epic-core with lots of aggression, a healthy blend of raw shouts and low end growls and foot stomping hooks." Their music and intense stage presence has separated them from the ever-growing UK Metal/Hardcore scene.

Dear Human,
I have worked with the finest furry tailors in the world, and am here to share my bounty of knowledge. Here's how to measure your pet...
Measure from the base of the tail (where it connects to the hindquarters) up to where the collar typically sits at the base of the neck, then follow up with a generous back scratch.
This is measured by giving your pet a
hug, during which you measure the entire circumference (all the way around) at the widest point of your pet's chest. This is typically right behind the front legs.
First, plenty of kisses. Then, measure the neck's circumference
(the distance around it) at the point where the collar sits.

I've figured out a way to get beyond the height limit. I have a waypoint on top of a high castle. When you launch from that point, you can't see the ground. In fact, you can see the curvature of the world!
Add Elondra to your friends list. We can meet up and I'll drop a portal to the waypoint. Bring your friends!
Gedarn (Ashenda) partook of the gliding experience last night/this morning. He'll testify to the validity of my claims.

Per the Dragons Prophet forums:
Dragon's Prophet currently has 3 major companies involved;
US Publisher = SOE
EU Publisher = Infernum
Game Development = RuneWaker
If you buy the game from SOE then you will only be able to play on the US Servers with the US Client.
Same goes for EU.
My guess is you are registered for the EU company and thus can only access those servers.

Things I've learned by playing the game...
When you are flying, sometimes holding down the space bar and moving the mouse rotates only the camera...for screenshots and looking around. But it only works sometimes...I'm still trying to nail down what triggers the feature.
If you attempt to fly from one island to the other (after attaining enough height), you end up flying over the edge of the developed area out at sea. It appears as a black area on your mini-map but nothing changes in your regular view. The black area is allocated for development because it doesn't port you back/drop you off the world/inviso-wall. I flew for an hour inside the black area then turned around and headed back the same way I came...and it took an hour to get back to the developed space! -)
The following is not an exploit...because you don't gain anything...except seeing small graphics in your mini-map(radar):
If you fly out to sea and enter the black area, you are placed in "air space above all textures". In this mode, you'll never see any landmass below your dragon BUT it will draw in the mini-map. This way you can preview areas in which you may want to visit. As soon as you attempt to lose altitude to land, you are killed and pop up in the southern-most city on whichever island you've explored. In my case, it is a level 45-50 zone. And you don't get any exploration points flying that high. But seeing what was in the mini-map was fun for me! -)
I still test a lot of the content, stopping to take sshots and file bug reports. So grouping with me can be a bit tiring! -)
I haven't played with crafting at all...maybe someone else can post about what they've learned on that subject??!!

Hey Kids! -)
I may have stumbled onto something about how the game allows the naming of Guilds.
The guild-naming system only allows for 1 capitalized letter at the beginning of the guild name. And it doesn't allow for spaces in the name. So when I created The Older Gamers, it created Theoldergamers. But I think I've found a way around this...
You can use the alt+number to create letters/numbers/special characters. So when I try TheOlderGamers, it MIGHT be able to create that as The(alt77)lder(alt39)amers.
I need someone to test my theory. I can fund you the cost (currently I have over 500,000 gold) of creating a guild...5,000 gold. If you could try creating "The(alt77)ther(alt39)eezers"???
If you do, let me know the results. I can always disband the current Theoldergamers since we only have 4 members and a total of 10 guild rep. points. I have everyone in my friends list and can reinvite into the new guild if it works.
What'cha all think?

Apologies to those of you who fall into any of the following categories: people with no kids; people with kids who are grown, moved away and gainfully employed; and parents of perfect children - that elusive species of offspring who love, honor and respect you despite the fact that they know everything, and you are old. I had another one of those "mother with child about to graduate from high school" experiences this week -- college registration. It was a full-day event complete with a snack in both the morning and afternoon.
While she's aware that school hot lunch sometimes gets a bad rap, Joan Allen will have none of it. As child nutrition coordinator for the Hudson School District, she is nothing but proud of what she and her staff feeds students every day. Allen will retire from her position in June after 28 years with the district. A graduate of UW-Stout, Allen worked as home economist for Hunt Wesson Foods and as a food service supervisor for the Minneapolis School System before coming to work in Hudson in 1979. "I like the school lunch program.
Police "ride-alongs" are something reporters do occasionally to get a feel for what officers do on a daily basis. I've been covering the Hudson Police Department for the Star-Observer since 1999, but for some reason never did a ride-along. But the subject came up recently in an interview with Chief Andy Smith and I mentioned I'd like to go on one. While I was anticipating an evening shift that with any luck included a little excitement downtown as the bars closed, I was surprised when the call came from the chief to see if I was available last Wednesday morning.
Agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms with assistance from the Hudson Police Department searched a Hudson home Wednesday looking for evidence of illegal gun trafficking. The agents and officers spent several hours searching the town home on Bridgewater Trail in the Lighthouse development off Stageline Road. Not at the residence when they first arrived, officers served the warrant on the man when he did come home about a half hour after police were on the scene.
Ken didn't mince any words when he told his story to the more than 200 people at the Salvation Army breakfast at the Hudson Golf Club last week. The event, entitled "A New Beginning," was held to raise awareness about Grace Place, the shelter in Somerset where Ken lived for about two months a year ago. Also featured were Salvation Army's other shelters -- House of Blessings in Osceola and Faith House in New Richmond -- and the other programs and assistance SA provides countywide. Ken told the audience that he had made a series of bad decisions in his life that led to prison.
The Hudson Board of Education voted last week to issue $9.5 million in bonds for the construction of River Crest Elementary School. The average interest rate on the 20-year general obligation bonds will be 4.31 percent. In a presentation by Brian Brewer -- director for R.W. Baird of Milwaukee, which is handling the transaction -- the board heard that the district's Aa2 credit rating from Moody's Investor Service helped secure the lower than anticipated interest rate. According to Brewer, a conservative rate of 5 percent was used in the original financing plan for the referendum.
The Board of Education gave preliminary approval to the latest schematic drawings for the district's new school, now officially named River Crest Elementary. Hoffman Architects of Appleton, who is designing the facility and the grounds surrounding it, made the presentation at last week's School Board meeting. Tom Cox of Hoffman advised the board that the company continues to be within budget and on schedule with the project.
Hudson School District Director of Personnel Services Jennifer Ninneman has resigned her position effective July 13, one year after being hired. Ninneman said she is leaving to complete the dissertation for her Ph.D. and will likely return to a career in higher education upon receiving her doctorate. Ninneman came to Hudson from the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota where she had served as lead human resources consultant. Prior to that, she worked as human resources manager at UW-River Falls.
The case for firing a former Hudson Police Department sergeant will not get a second hearing, according to a recent ruling by St. Croix County Judge Edward Vlack. Robert Oehmke of Hudson had appealed his dismissal -- from the department last December by the Police and Fire Commission -- to St. Croix County Circuit Court.
The judge in the wrongful death lawsuit brought by the family of murder victim James Ellison last week denied a petition by Bishop Raphael Fliss and the Diocese of Superior to have the case against them dismissed. Ellison was murdered at the O'Connell Family Funeral Home along with owner Dan O'Connell in February 2002. An investigation and hearing into the double homicide determined that the likely killer was the late Fr. Ryan Erickson, then an assistant pastor at St. Patrick's Church.
