Six Nations 2013: Italy beats France by 23 to 18

Italy vs. France


Okay, now, I had reports from the Six Nations 2013 match and it's a report that says that F.I.R from Italy trounced FFR from France at Stadio Olimpico with the score of 23 to 18. Thanks to Luciano Orquera, the Italian rugby team propelled to a head start of the Six Nations 2013 match, much as England and Ireland got a head start.

PRESS RELEASE:


Orquera leads Italy to stunning success in Rome

Luciano Orquera's virtuoso performance led a superb Italy side to a deserved 23-18 win over France - their second in succession on home soil against Les Bleus in the RBS 6 Nations.

France came into the game on the back of three wins in the autumn internationals, including an impressive dismantling of Australia in Paris.
However the Italians had shown a lot of promise as well, going toe-to-toe with the All Blacks for an hour and coming within two points of the Wallabies and lived up to coach Jacques Brunel's attacking ambitions.

Despite trailing at half-time, they produced a fantastic second-half comeback as Les Bleus faded. And when Martin Castrogiovanni went over with 20 minutes to go, and Orquera put Italy back in front, it looked like the spirit had gone out of the French.

Frederic Michalak, who had been so impressive in the autumn, did not get off to the best of starts when his kick-off went out on the full, setting up the first scrum of the game for the Italians.

In a frenetic opening it was the Italians who dominated the possession early on, and showing their new-found attacking intentions with Sergio Parisse's early score.

An initial break from Luke McLean looked to have stalled but Orquera spotted a hole in the French defence and scythed his way through before finding Parisse for the try, Orquera added the extras from wide on the left.

Having barely touched the ball, the French then began to put the pressure on the Italians, with an exquisite Michalak up-and-under causing problems in the Azzurri 22.

After spreading the ball right and then left, it was Louis Picamoles who showed his strength, holding off a couple of Italian defenders to stretch over.

However the Italians weren't about to let the initiative get away from them, and an Orquera drop goal on the quarter-hour, followed by a penalty two minutes later, helped them into a 13-5 lead.

In an entertaining encounter it was the French who threatened next, and after some powerful running full-back Yoann Huget was held up over the line after consultation with the TMO.

From the resulting five-metre scrum the Italians were a little over-eager in defence, giving Michalak an easy opportunity to open his account with a penalty from in front. The Azzurri still led 13-8 just before the half-hour.

Les Bleus looked to be getting into the game, and some fantastic offloading set up their second try to put them into the lead for the first time.

Huget made the initial break as Michalak spread the ball, before Fritz's quick hands released Fall to stroll over. Michalak's conversion put his side up 15-13.

The French made the early running in the second half, and after the Italian scrum and Andrea Lo Cicero, in particular, was penalised for lack of binding, Michalak added a penalty to make it 18-13.

With a five-point lead the French looked like they were taking control, and they should have extended their lead when Maxime Machenaud made a searing break through the Itailan defence.

However the scrum-half forced the pass deep in Italian territory, and the Italians produced a stunning counter-attack which finished with a delightful Orquera offload to Castrogiovanni who fell over the line for the try. Orquera's conversion put his side back in front with just over a quarter of the game to go.

Philippe Saint-Andre then made the decision to bring on Morgan Parra and Mathieu Bastareaud, with the game appearing to slip away from Les Bleus.

The feeling only increased with 12 minutes remaining when Kris Burton, having replaced the impressive Orquera, slotted a drop goal, to stretch the lead to five points.

With a minute to go France started to put the pressure on the Italians, and with the Azzurri forced to infringe, it was Davide Giazzon who was sent to the sin bin.

Les Bleus took the scrum but after the home pack was penalised at the first attempt, they held strong at the second, and when the ball was spread wide, Fall was forced into touch to Italian jubilation.

Six Nations 2013 kicks off as England wins against Scotland

England vs. Scotland
The Six Nations 2013 kicks off and in the opening salvo, it's England taken down big-time rival Scotland for the Calcutta Cup, kicking it off with a great start of the game! Here's an article sourced from BBC Sport:


England overpowered great rivals Scotland to retain the Calcutta Cup and get their Six Nations campaign off to the perfect start.

A try on debut from Billy Twelvetrees and equally clinical scores from Chris Ashton, Geoff Parling and Danny Care, added to 18 points from the boot of man of the match Owen Farrell, were fitting reward for a dominant display.

Sean Maitland's 10th-minute try offered the visitors brief early hope of a long-overdue upset, but they led for less than four minutes.

A late rally after a brilliant length-of-the-field break finished by Stuart Hogg narrowed the margin but never threatened to overturn it.

Scotland have now gone 30 years without a win in the English capital and England's young side will now travel to Dublin with confidence high as they continue to develop quickly under coach Stuart Lancaster.

Farrell's penalty on two minutes had given his side an early lead, bullocking runs from Ben Morgan and Tom Wood then punching huge holes in the Scottish rearguard as Lancaster's men began at pace.
But it was Scotland who silenced Twickenham with the first try of the day. Mike Brown's clearing kick found Hogg in space, and the full-back ghosted between Mike Brown and Dan Cole before clattering through Alex Goode.

Debutant Maitland was free on his shoulder, only for Hogg to hold on, but after his forwards made further inroads the winger was able to dive over in the corner from three yards out.

Indiscipline at the breakdown from the Scottish forwards gave Farrell the chance to land a brace of penalties for 9-5, Greig Laidlaw adding one of his own to keep the match in the balance as the half-hour approached.
It was an open game, with both sides looking to put the ball through hands on a dry but bitterly cold afternoon.

And England struck next as their mobile forwards thundered at the Scottish defence.

Joe Launchbury took a short pass from Joe Marler and drove through a tackle, sucking in defenders, and the lurking Ashton took Ben Youngs's pass at pace to crash between Sean Lamont and Ruaridh Jackson and reach out to touch down.

Farrell's conversion and fourth penalty after a high tackle on Morgan made it 19-8, Laidlaw reducing the deficit to 19-11 at the interval with his second penalty after Wood transgressed.
England, so impressive in their previous match at Twickenham, the record 38-21 defeat of New Zealand, then took control as the second period began.

Quick ball and incisive drives set up possession deep in the Scottish 22, and a flat pass from Ben Youngs allowed Twelvetrees to take the ball at pace and thump through Dougie Hall and Jim Hamilton for his first international try.

It was fitting reward for a composed display from the Gloucester centre, only in the team because of injury to Manu Tuilagi.

The faultless Farrell added the conversion, and then threw a beautiful long miss-pass to pick out lock Parling loitering on the left wing for the Leicester man's own maiden England try.

Launchbury had a try ruled out for a high tackle earlier in the move, before the game meandered for a while as errors crept in on both sides.

Scotland then rallied, turning the ball over close to their own line and putting it through the hands before Maitland kicked ahead and Hogg won the race to touch down ahead of replacement Toby Flood.

But Scott Johnson's men could do little more to break down the well organised home defence, and when Care burrowed over at the death, a capacity crowd celebrated another encouraging victory.

At the end of the first round; both England and Ireland are in the lead by two points. After all, during England's win against the Scottish at Twickenham, I've received reports that Ireland's IRFU taken down the hopeless WRU from Wales at Millenium Stadium, Cardiff, Wales. 30 to 22, the Irish beaten down the Welsh in a game of rugby....

Forza 4: The Ballad of Civic Type R

The Ballad of Type R

Oh look, guess who's booked for a visit at the Top Gear Test Track on Forza Motorsport 4? Oh yes! It's those Civic Type R hatches that I'm surely missed. There was the first of its kind, the EK9 Civic Type R, famed for being the noise-making JDM hot hatch that loves to carve destruction to the residential zones...



...the EP3 Civic Type R that seems to be more of a gentleman's Type R but turns out to pack a deadly combination of agility, precision, and the burning desire to impress the crowd...



...and the FN2 Civic Type R, the last of the breed. When I said "last of the breed", I do mean it because this is the final Type R model to be offered in Japan.



I know, it's sad that with the FN2 sold out in Japan, this spelled the end of the Type R legend and if you heard the news about the next Civic Type R is due in 2015 and claimed to be the fastest at the Nurburgring, don't expect this future Type R to come in Japan because as we know, the Civic is dead in 2010. Why does the whole world gets the ninth-generation Civic while Japan missed out? Never mind about that but still, no future Type R for Japanese market, which really makes us sad because a true Type R has to be sold in Japan, accessible to every "speedo boy" on the planet. He he he, speedo boy...Why did I used that word?

Oh yeah, I did made the word "speedo boy" to a whole new meaning. Speedo boy is...some idiot obsessed at the car's speedo and obsessed about knowing the car's 0-100kmh time and its top speed but because it's a Japanese car, that doesn't work, SPEEDO BOY! A Speedo Boy is...often taking a video of a speedo revving while driving at the road but that's too distracting, right? Guess I should make a lyric about speedo boys, he he he....

But anyway, the Civic Type R, these are surely be missed and if there's a Civic Type R that is not offered in Japanese, guess I should turn away from then until Honda Motor Co., Ltd. has the chance....

Two endings on the same day

In case you haven't heard of it, two TV dramas from ABS-CBN, Princess and I and Kahit Puso'y Masugatan, ended on the same day. Whoa, what a combo but which ending should I start with? Oh yes!

Let's start with Princess and I...

In order for Mikay or Princess Aria (Kathryn Bernardo) to save her kingdom, her father King Anan (Albert Martinez), Gino (Daniel Padilla), and the kingdom of Yangdon from the crutches of Ashi Behati (Gretchen Baretto), who dethroned King Anan and took over Yangdon as revenge, she made a sacrifice and the sacrifice is...to marry Jao (Enrique Gil) but the question is, is that a necessary sacrifice to save Yangdon?

After learning King Anan's fatal conditions, we've discovered what are the true intentions of why Ashi Behati took over Yangdon and it's because of the revenge made for exiling both her and Jao. You may recall that from previous episodes.

When Gino talked to Jao about the reason why Mikay chose to bring back peace to Yangdon, we also saw Ashi Behati injecting some sort of poison to King Anan and later, Jao approached Mikay at the refugee camp to explain everything.

At the fateful day, at the royal wedding of Mikay and Jao, Jao interrupted the wedding and hey, Mikay's right. Maybe two worlds need to resolve this conflict and peace is what Yangdon needs. Because of what Jao said, Ashi Behati became furious about that very decision. Ashi Behati's going to kill Mikay but Jao sacrificed himself to save Mikay.

Moments later, peace has regained to Yangdon and the east and west are now together as one while Ashi Behati's imprisoned for the rest of her life. The happy ending is when Mikay and Gino finally together as Princess Aria and Dasho Yuan, two years later...

That ends the story of Princess and I...

Okay so how about the ending of Kahit Puso'y Masugatan?

On the finale, Rafael (Jake Cuenca) died after being shot by the police and Veronica (Andi Eigenmann) finally turned herself in to the police for the kidnapping of Miggy, the child of Andrea (Iza Calzado). Sorry if the description seems to be short but this might be enough to explain what is the ending of Kahit Puso'y Masugatan. After all, it all ends when Andrea visited the prison to see Veronica and, well, it's all's fair as siblings. Andrea tries to make Veronica forget all of the bad things caused to her and that's the end of the story.

I do hope you've enjoyed both of these endings as seen yesterday...

Hayate the combat butler CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU Original Soundtrack

Hayate the combat butler CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OF YOU
Original Soundtrack
After two seasons from 2007 and 2009, a Taiwanese TV drama on 2011, and a feature-length film on the same year, it seems that the venerable Hayate no Gotoku story is like playing a game of "last hit" and in 2012, the whole Hayate no Gotoku franchise really know that when a game of "last hit" gets serious, it keeps tagging and tagging and tagging until it's finished. Hayate the combat butler CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU is worth an attempt for doing that purpose.

This is a completely different story, not related to the past two seasons, but Kenjiro Hata was responsible for this original content offered on this series. Despite the author taking showrunner duties for CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU, it's still kinda old-fashioned though, even when the staff re-employed the animation studio responsible for HEAVEN IS A PLACE ON EARTH movie. With returning characters, especially Ruka Suirenji, there has been new additions to the series such as the enigmatic Ruri Tsugumi. From Tokyo to Las Vegas, you're not escaping the fact that the whole 12-episode anime series is "last hit" best served cold.

However, if some of you got tantalized over the background music as heard on the series, fear not because there's an OST for that. This OST is jam-packed with 42 tracks, while most of the BGM's scored by Wataru Maeguchi, who was responsible for the music score from the movie, you can also expect TV-sized versions of the series' opening and closing theme and as a bonus, the final episode version of the song "Here I Am, Here We Are" was on that track as well.

Well, let's not be clever shall we because most of you will be out there searching for this CD on the net but as a general rule, here's the order link:

Dream Club Complete Edipyon and Dream Club Zero Special Edipyon

If you like THE IDOLM@STER, this game that I'm going to feature today will not going to please you though because back in 2009, there's this game produced by D3P called Dream Club. It's all about the host club, and then once you're here, you are free to entertain, or be entertained, by the hostesses of Dream Club and yes really, you might be hearing the songs coming out from the hostesses as well at the stage. You really can't imagine where did they get that idea from but who knows, it seems that D3P really took the pages from Namco's books, which is cute girls doing entertainment for your pleasure.

Listen though, this game was launched in the XBOX 360 in 2009 and then it spawned several games to this franchise, including a mahjong game that seems to be too complicating to play unless you are mingled by the hostesses.

With fans of the Dream Club demanding that Dream Club needs to be on the PS3, it seems that the demand has been fulfilled by bringing two DC games, from the first one to Dream Club ZERO prequel, for the first time on the PS3 with some updated features you won't find it in the Xbox 360 version. Let's start with Dream Club Complete Edipyon.

Dream Club Complete Edipyon
Weird, they called it Edipyon and that's how a stupid way to say "edition" but never mind about that. For the improved version of the first game available for the first time on the PS3, you'll expect the same gameplay from the original XBOX 360 version but with added features from DC Zero, meaning that the mini-games from Dream Club Zero you love such as sticking a banana to the hostess' mouth will be there and this goes in the name of extended hours of gameplay. Also new on this Complete Edipyon is some new outfits that you can personalize your favorite host girls. Yes, I know...

Something tells me that here that when you are growing the affinity between you and the host girl of your choice, you might be able to reveal their profiles. At start, the hostesses' info came up empty. You won't even know who are their real names, their birthdates, anything but as long as you keep on playing with the hostess of your choice, their bios will slowly appear and you know it.

The gameplay of this improved version of the first Dream Club game really looks better on the PS3 console, in fact, this is what D3P should have done in the first place. You'll spend hours and hours and hours playing the Complete Edipyon until you got bored but still, you'll never get bored easily toying around with the hostesses until you're starting to getting to know them. Good point for D3P there...

Dream Club Zero Special Edipyon
Some of you may say you have already tried the Dream Club Zero Portable on your PSVita but that alone might not be enough because what it needs is something on the big scale, well, there's a PS3 version for that. Dream Club Zero Special Edition is somewhat an interesting choice. It maybe just a prequel to the first game but with tons of new characters and new features especially the part where you can date with two host girls, you'll might be interested to this over to the first game and because of its DLC offered, you have a lot of choices to make yourselves comfortable...and addicted to the Dream Club franchise.

Both of these improved versions of two Dream Club games developed specifically for the PS3 might sounds juicy enough for those who said "Aha!" but sadly though, I don't really like it. It's too cheesy, it's too cheeky, and this is not quite an alternative to your ever-loving idol simulation game you once played and loved. The gameplay maybe good but sadly, some parts of the game really made you say "wait a minute, those things are from iM@S, how did they got it?".

There's no need to ask how because if you're not interested in idols, why not hostesses? There's nothing bad about asking what's the point of it but both of these PS3 versions really tickles your fancies unless you may dump idols in favor of hostesses.

Mexican Spring break

On an all new Top Gear, the US version, the boys drove their "college cars" on the trip to San Felipe, Mexico. Tanner has an Eagle Talon (which is an Americanized Mitsubishi Eclipse), Adam drove a Cadillac Brougham, and Rut drives a rear-engine VW Bus.

American car football, mariachi band, luchadors, quincenera, offroad, car pinata, well that's how the trip gets interesting...

After a game of car pinata that ruined Rut's bus, it seems that Tanner and Adam crossed the San Felipe beach, turns out it's a bit quiet than the usual...

...right until the last challenge when Paragliding Eagle crash landed and exploded Cadillac at the beach makes it more than you can say "massive failure" is Spanish...

Maybe a bit massive failure but that's a good trip for the college cars...
