As a two-time All-American linebacker, Fitzgerald was a leader of Northwestern's historic Rose Bowl team in 1995, which started the transformation of the program. As a head coach, he forged the era in which Northwestern would become a consistent winner. Locked into a long-term contract, he will soon see the groundbreaking of state-of-the-art facilities along the Evanston's beautiful lakefront—a 'game-changer,' as he has termed it.
Northwestern isn't the Big Ten bottom-dweller it used to be, but one negative still haunted it; a mountain not climbed by the Wildcats since 1949. In bold lettering atop the program's list of goals, it simply states: 'Win a bowl game.'
Standing atop a podium inside EverBank Field, hardware in hand, Fitzgerald struggled to put the victory's importance into perspective.
''We talk to our guys all the time," Fitzgerald started to the crowd on hand. "I say, 'Act like we've been here before.' ''Well, we've never been here before."
The script was perfect for Northwestern. The defense forced four interceptions of quarterback Tyler Russell, and sealing the victory with a Quentin Williams fourth-down sack. A unit that has folded in games past rose to the occasion in the final quarter. On offense, NU showed its versatility on offense, with Trevor Siemian stepping in to pace the unit.
The purple party started as the clock's remaining seconds ticked away, and continued throughout the day. Wildcats of past and present hugged, laughed and even cried tears of joy.
"This one goes out to all the Wildcats that have been here before us," Fitzgerald said after the win.
But who better to represent that group than Fitzgerald—one of the most celebrated figures in Northwestern history. The triumph marked his 50th victory as NU's head coach, making him the program's all-time wins leader.
What was his reaction to the milestone?
"If it was just me, then how selfish would I be?" he expressed to the media. "It's about our young men, all the great young men that I've had the privilege to be their head coach and very privileged to helping them to grow and be the best they can."
On a personal level for Fitzgerald, the win meant much more than he would ever admit. It brought new joy after past postseason failures—as a player, assistant coach, and a head coach. It also solidifies his legitimacy among head-coaching elite. His foremost focus was on the former; not the latter.
Fitzgerald spent the postgame pandemonium with his players, coaches, and supporters of the program. A special moment came in an interview with former teammate Sam Valensizi, now the sideline reporter for WGN Radio. The two enjoyed a warm embrace during the interview. An emotional Fitzgerald was reduced to two words: 'Go Cats.'
Led by its proud son, Northwestern reached a milestone achievement the program has longed for. The Gator Bowl victory is a defining one for Pat Fitzgerald. But his big smile wasn't about personal any accomplishment.
"This is not about me or about us," he said. "This is about all of us. It's about our program."

Scoring at new heights
Corey Hawkins
Major: American studies
Sport: Basketball
Anticipated graduation year: 2015
Hometown: Goodyear, Ariz.
Humility is a trademark for Corey Hawkins. When it comes to bragging about his talents, he lets his play do the talking and, so far, both he and the Aggies are making a lot of noise.
UC Davis head men's basketball coach Jim Les has known Hawkins for most of his life, the byproduct of his longtime friendship with Hawkins's dad — former NBA star Hersey Hawkins.
It's little surprise then, that UC Davis was on the top of his wish list when he decided to switch colleges after his freshman year. It's been a great fit for the sharp-shooting junior guard who chose American Studies as his major for its focus on current national and global trends. "Everyone in American Studies is great to work with, flexible about the team's schedule and knowledgeable about applying the material to future goals," he says.
Like his dad, Hawkins has already proven to be an elite scorer, averaging 20.3 points per game last season and earning All-Big West Conference first-team honors as well as being named the league's Newcomer of the Year.
His outstanding play, including a school-record 40 points at Hawai'i, has brought national attention to the UC Davis men's basketball program and to Hawkins as a top collegiate player.
"I believe with the right supporting cast and a positive attitude, you can do anything you set your mind to."

Many identity theft rings operate outside the United States, but target U.S. merchants through phone and Internet transactions. Statistics show many foreign fraudsters order merchandise for shipment to Indonesia, Nigeria, Ghana or the United Kingdom. Alternately, they use unwary U.S. citizens as dupes in their schemes. By hiring unsuspecting U.S. home workers to act as freight forwarders for their illegal purchases, these fraudsters make it appear that goods are shipped to U.S. citizens versus rerouted to overseas destinations.
Typically, these fraud rings operate by contacting a merchant via e-mail or phone and making a card not-present purchase. They provide a credit card number, and in some cases, images of the front and back of the card to further create the illusion of legitimacy. After fraudsters have completed an order and received merchandise, they will initiate transactions using other card numbers.
Undetected fraud costs merchants dearly through chargebacks, and merchandise loss. The key to prevention is being on guard. Receiving an authorization for a transaction does not guarantee that the card is valid.
Being aware of the danger of credit card fraud makes you better prepared to protect your business against losses. Elavon offers its clients a strong line of defense against foreign shipment fraud through the industry standard "Code 10" process, backed by the experts in Elavon's Loss Prevention Group.
For example, if a mail order merchant receives a suspicious U.S. order or request for shipment of merchandise to a foreign country, the merchant contacts Elavon's voice authorization department and requests a "Code 10". The call is routed to the card-issuing bank and the card number is simultaneously forwarded to the Elavon Loss Prevention department.
A Loss Prevention representative contacts the card-issuing bank to inquire about validity of the card. They may also contact the cardholder, the ship to-address, or any other party to the transaction. If the card or transaction is confirmed to be a fraud, the merchant is contacted to stop shipment and a query is run across the entire base of Elavon merchants to determine if the same card has been used at other merchant locations. If so, the additional merchants are contacted in an attempt to stop their shipments. This proactively prevents chargebacks and losses that would be sustained by other merchants targeted by the same criminals.
For more information concerning Code 10 and the NAEDA endorsed credit card processing program, contact Danielle Gibson 800-546-1831 ext. 5434 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Megadeth pays tribute to a country legend
Listen to Megadeth on iHeartRadio
Megadeth's Dave Mustaine admits his band's inclusion in the George Jones tribute concert raised some eyebrows.
But before the show the rocker told Nashville's Fox 17 they were there for a simple and obvious reason - to honor the late country legend. And he said his group chose to do so by "honoring his beliefs."
Mustaine explained that Jones championed America's veterans, and highlighted the treatment of Vietnam vets in his song "Wild Irish Rose," which was the song Megadeth chose to perform at the event.
The band teamed up with singer-songwriter Jamey Johnson for the lengthy event, which ran nearly four hours.
A few other non-country artists took part in the concert as well, including R&B great Sam Moore, while Billboard.com says Styx frontman Tommy Shaw provided a highlight with his rendition of Jones' "She Thinks I Still Care."
More than 100 artists took part in the show, including country legends Alan Jackson, George Strait, and Garth Brooks.
"Playin' Possum! The Final No Show" took place at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena Friday night.

Since 2005's "Sin City," movie fans have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the next chapter of the Frank Miller franchise, and next month they'll get their wish.
"Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" just released its latest red band trailer for the loyal followers at 2014 San Diego Comic-Con, and it's the hardest-hitting yet.
Heading south of the border for the huge step, Alexa Vega and Carlos Pena tied the knot in Mexico on Saturday (January 4).
Stoked to wed her main man, the 25-year-old actress tweeted, "Wow... I'm getting excited nervous!!!! Ahhhh!!! #CountDownToAisle," followed by a triumphant, "Mrs. PENAVEGA."
Almost the whole city took part in granting the wish of one little boy who dreamed of becoming Batman for a day in San Francisco on Friday (November 15).
Adorable Miles finished his Leukemia treatments in June and suited up to fight crime as Batkid as San Francisco turned into Gotham City.
Dressed to the nines for a star-studded soirée down the red carpet, more than a dozen celebrity icons you both know and love showed up for the Los Angeles premiere of "Machete Kills" on Wednesday night (October 2).
The Colombian "Modern Family" temptress Sofia Vergara, playing the movie's own Madame Desdemona, swaggered down the runway with pomp and purpose in a glittery black dress.
Building the hype for next month's release, "Machete Kills" just let loose a new red band teaser trailer, and it's definitely a wild ride.
The new clip features plenty of blood, guts, obscene language, and over-the-top scenarios, picking up where the original "Machete" flick left off.
Love is definitely in the air for Alexa Vega, as she recently accepted a marriage proposal from her boyfriend Carlos Pena.
The "Spy Kids" starlet and the Big Time Rush singer are thought to have gotten engaged during a romantic road trip, and their Instagram accounts bear witness to the betrothal.
Building hype for the October release of their star-studded new film, "Machete Kills," producers have released a dramatic new poster touting the movie. It's the sequel to "Grindhouse."
"Machete Kills" arrives in theaters October 11 and stars Danny Trejo, Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodriguez as returning cast members. New additions for the sequel include Amber Heard, Charlie Sheen, Mel Gibson, Lady Gaga and Damian Belchir.
We're still a couple months away from the theatrical release of "Machete Kills," and there's a brand new promotional shot to hold us over in the meantime.
The new shot features Sofia Vergara, Alexa Vega, and Elle LaMont all looking super-hot and definitely deadly in their respective getups, adding plenty of eye candy to the already-impressive lineup.

UPLAND - The funeral for the intended victim of a botched home invasion that turned deadly in Ontario has been arranged by his family.
Brandon Perez, 31, of Ontario, was killed Nov. 26 when four men allegedly burst into his Magnolia Street home with plans of robbing him.
His funeral is set for Sunday at 1 p.m. at Upland's Stone Funeral Home, 355 E. 9th St.
Brandon worked as a paralegal for two years in his step-fathers' Upland law office.
Police officers early in the investigation maintained that the 20 pounds of marijuana was seized from the house where two of three men, including Perez, were discovered dead.
Family members said Perez, who resided in the back house of the property in the 1000 block of Magnolia Avenue in Ontario, was not a drug dealer.
The drugs, they said, came from a storage area shared by Perez and the homeowners who lived in another house on the property.
Ontario police officials confirmed the statements by the Perez family.
"It seems that the drugs and cultivating equipment came from a storage area that was shared by the renter, Brandon Perez and the homeowners," Sgt. David McBride said.
Calls to the owner of the property - Tim Mullis, Sr. of Upland - have not been returned.
Perez, a long-time hunter, camper and fisherman was also a member of the National Rifle Association, among numerous other outdoorsman associations.
Police say that the motive for the robbery was drugs and/or weapons.
Perez's family said that the drug motive is not plausible.
"There's no way those drugs were his," said his step-father Nolan King. "He worked at my office every day. He put in long hours and when he wasn't working he was being a good dad to his daughter."
Brandon didn't do drugs, but he did have guns, King added.
The two survivors of the shooting, Steven Carter, 34 of Upland and Michael Andre Hall, 23, of Upland, pleaded not guilty to three counts of murder in West Valley Superior Court in Rancho Cucamonga.
They also denied special allegations of use of a firearm and gang involvement during a crime.
Brandon's memorial services are open to family and friends.
The family is asking that in lieu of flowers donations to the Caitlyn Marie Perez Trust Fund would be appreciated.

BMW Tire & Wheel Protection
My husband and I were picking up 2 BMWs yesterday from the dealer. We had visited the dealership last week and decided on 2 models and completed the credit app. The Sales Manager gave us 2 separate quotes for the lease payment on each car. When we went to pick up the cars we were in the finance office ready to give our down payment based on the info we received previously from the Sales Manager. The Finance Manager tells us about two options we can now take advantage of (BMW Tire & Wheel Protection & Paint & Interior Protection) for an additional fee which will now increase our monthly lease payment on each car. We were really shocked and upset that they waited until the last moment to bring up these options which did not allow us to do any research as to whether they were worthwhile. My question is - did anyone else close a deal on their car with these options offered at the last minute? Thanks, Suzi
Firstly, you don't need, in any way, the dealer-offered paint and interior protection. It is an overpriced trinket the dealers offer, and is really nothing more than a good wax and sealant that you can do yourself or get done independently much cheaper than the dealer's price.
Tire and wheel protection (or insurance) CAN be useful if the roads where you live are in poor condition (potholes, broken pavement, etc); BUT often the price of the protection is high, and you can "self-insure" for a lot less. If offered by BMW NA itself, it may be useful; if offered by a third party insurer, I would pass.
Sounds like this dealer is playing the usual games more often associated with "Detroit" products. Sounds rather unprofessionl to me.
Just get the cars waxed at the car wash for $39.00 next time you get it washed or do it yourself. In the unlikely event you damage or pop a tire simply get it replaced if that even happens. No need to up your payment for the term of the lease.
And yes, when purchasing my Toyota they threw these sealant, protectant thing in at the very last minute. During the last bit of paperwork.
You mention it's a lease and the rim protection would ONLY be a good choice if you encounter bad roads on a daily basis. Just for a piece of mind for the end.
I had that for my vehicle back in 2008 by maxguard and the fine print was a pain. Since it was a purchase and not a lease, instill bought it because I was not aware that many people actually sell their OEMs for dirt cheap compared to dealers.

(SportsNetwork.com) - The Portland Trail Blazers will try for a ninth consecutive victory on Friday night when they return home to host the Chicago Bulls.
The Blazers haven't lost since Nov. 5 when they fell at home to the Houston Rockets. Three victories during this winning streak came at Moda Center, but Portland just completed a 4-0 road trip east.
Their eight-game winning streak is their longest since a 13-game run from Dec. 3-30, 2007. Portland is off to its best start since winning 13 of 15 to begin the 1999-2000 season.
The eighth consecutive victory came in Milwaukee when the Blazers shot a season-worst 40.7 percent from the field, but won, 91-82. The 82 points allowed was the fewest surrendered by the Blazers this season.
"To finish a road trip undefeated and to do it with the defense and energy that we had in the second half is great," head coach Terry Stotts said. "There is no question that it was a solid win. I believe it's the fifth game where we've won a game shooting under (45) percent, and I think that is something we take pride in as well."
LaMarcus Aldridge paced Portland with 21 points, followed by 19 from Damian Lillard and 15 from Wesley Matthews.
The Bulls began their annual Circus Trip with a 97-87 loss in Denver Thursday night. Chicago is away from home for four more games after Friday's visit to Rose City.
It was a former Bull, Nate Robinson, who hurt his old mates on Thursday. He buried a pair of 3-pointers to start the fourth quarter that put the game out of reach.
"We got caught by some dribble penetration," said Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau. "We lost Nate a couple of times and that gave them a cushion and it got away from us. You can't let your guard down against them. I thought their bench hurt us."
Thibodeau was right.
The Nuggets' second unit outscored the Bulls' reserves, 49-21. Robinson finished with 11 points and Jordan Hamilton led the way for Denver with 17 points off the bench. No Bull scored double-figures off the bench.
With Jimmy Butler sidelined with turf-toe, Mike Dunleavy started in his place and did admirably with 15 points. It hurt Chicago's depth, but all five Bulls starters scored in double digits, led by 19 from Derrick Rose.
Carlos Boozer had 15 points and 10 rebounds. Joakim Noah scored 11 and grabbed 12 boards and Luol Deng only managed six points, but had a game-high 13 rebounds.
The Blazers swept both of last season's meetings with Chicago and have captured four straight in the series. Chicago has lost five straight in Portland and six of its last seven.

'Go read a fucking book, you piece of shit.'
It's Lloyd Irvin inspired marketing hype. I've heard it's a decent instructional but nothing new.
http://www.ChrisReesAcademy.com - http://thetattooedchimp.blogspot.co.uk/
Do you know what they focus on? Is it something worth focussing on?
Sorry, more interested in your opinion than google's.
'Go read a fucking book, you piece of shit.'
David Avellan's a very good grappler, but as Rob says it's a lot of stuff that already exists and is fairly commonplace collated into a 'system' and marketed in a way that it appears fresh.
No doubt some good stuff in there, but as with anything of this ilk the marketing tag lines don't exactly tell the full story.
I used to do a lot of this stuff, but have found against the good strong guys its hard to pull off in comps, feel you need alot of strength to finish the kimuras, and have decided that the chokes are the way forward, just my two cents, i used to love kimuras my dogs name is kimura haha
Marcelo says the same thing... he doesn't use the kimura because it's too hard to finish on strong guys.
As for the instructional, the guy is a good grappler, I'm sure it's decent but probably overpriced (I have no idea how much it costs, I just know the Lloyd Irvin sales style).
http://www.ChrisReesAcademy.com - http://thetattooedchimp.blogspot.co.uk/
Are you kidding rob? its £100 to skip 5 years of on the mat time AND be able to beat any pesky wrestler, plus it works for anyone, any size, any where, anytime... I genuinely might buy it if i have any spare cash.
it just makes sound financial AND time based sense.
After reading a load of really horrible shit recently, jay and rob's posts make all the more sense.
man, when you're the nail, hang in there....until the day you become the hammer

LAKEWOOD, NJ -- New from BMI Merchandise (Bonita Marie) is a line of prize merchandise designed for fans of A&E Network's "Duck Dynasty," a reality television series chronicling the founders of Duck Commander Co., the Robertson family of West Monroe, LA. According to BMI, the reality program is "the hottest thing on television."
The new line includes such useful and attractive items as Duck Commander LED flashlights and lanterns, cups, "koozies" (insulating sleeves for beer containers) and much more.
"For entertainment venues to remain relevant, they need to occasionally 'jump the retail shark' when it comes to their redemption/direct pay merchandise," said BMI sales and marketing vice-president Dave Schwartz. Locations that offer items on the cutting-edge of retail distribution -- based on rapidly emerging brands like Duck Dynasty "can really accelerate their game revenue," Schwartz emphasized.
He added that Duck Dynasty reaches an older audience, primarily males in the 18-to-35 age cohort. This is another example of BMI's merchandise design strategy of appealing to a wider age range than typical amusement industry suppliers. Venues that merchandise a portfolio of branded and unique prizes for adults and kids "as if in a retail environment" improve their chances for remaining popular with today's fickle entertainment consumers, the BMI vice-president concluded.
BMI is a leading supplier of merchandise for redemption centers, direct-pay, tickets-to-prizes and Prize Hub operators. (Prize Hub is BMI's modular self-contained prize-delivery system.)

absinthe is bullshit anyway. anyone that actually is down with the real wormwooded jaunts would tell you that its no different from drinking any other liquor. most people just like it for the folk tale and the processes you go through while you do it.. I'd compare it to rolling a blunt.

The above post is 100% false and should not be taken seriously, it is a lie.
Bored Of Your Average.
ketel one, nothing mixed in, just ketel.
"*****s Know"
Quality absinthe, properly distilled, does have a different effect over and above the results of alcohol, though at up to 70%, the effects of the alcohol alone can be considerable. Absinthe's effects, despite popular conception, are not due to the wormwood alone. Absinthe's constituents consist of a very delicate balance of various herbs, most of which contribute in one way or another to its intoxicating effects. It is a push-me, pull-you effect of the various herbs, as some are of an heightening effect, and others are lowering. The effect on the individual is subjective, and can best be described as a kind of heightened clarity of mind and vision, mildly ponderous and sparkling, and warmed by the effect of the alcohol. This seems to wear off after 20 or 30 minutes, leaving one with an alcohol buzz. 2-3 glasses of absinthe seems to do the trick. More than that, depending on the proof of the alcohol, absinthe will just make you very drunk.
next time just drink 151 and go get your stomach pumped
its all about 4 LOCOS. 11% alchohol & it tastes like a fucking capri sun. sooo sick.

Jonathan Green to deliver Smalls lecture
Internationally know painter and printmaker Jonathan Green will present the 13th annual Robert Smalls Lecture at the University of South Carolina at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 18, in Gambrell Hall, Room 153.
Jonathan Green
Titled "African American Art: Reflecting a Culture of a Place and Time," the talk will focus on the important role that the arts play in reflecting and strengthening cultures. It is free and open to the public and will include a reception afterward.
Green was born and raised in the Gullah community of Gardens Corner in Beaufort County and is one of the state's most celebrated artists. His art is part of museum collections throughout the country and in Germany.
A graduate of The School of the Art Institute in Chicago, Green has forged strong ties to USC during the past 20 years. In addition to organizing original and traveling exhibits with McKissick Museum, he has taught and collaborated with art students on printing projects and dance students with adaptation of his art to stage through a ballet. The University of South Carolina Press published his book, "Gullah Images: The Art of Jonathan Green," reproducing 180 images of his paintings in color. In 1996, the university awarded Green an honorary doctor of fine arts degree.
The university's African-American Studies Program established the Robert Smalls Lecture Series in 1997 to share the latest research and scholarship on African-American studies with the community. It is named for Robert Smalls, a South Carolina slave, Civil War hero and congressman who had a significant impact on South Carolina with his contributions to political, education and economic reform.
The Robert Smalls Lecture is sponsored by the university's College of Arts and Sciences and the African-American Studies Program. For more information, call 803-777-7248, or visit the Web site: www.cas.sc.edu/AFRA/

"During the era of the PlayStation 1 and 2, JRPGs were one of the strongest genres on consoles. Over the past generation of gaming however, JRPGs seem to have dwindled off of consoles and focused themselves more on handhelds." | Explosion.com
If they don't bring in VC3 to the states, I won't support 4 at all. I don't like skipping games.
Game publishers/developers have become just to greedy. The industry has become too big for its own good and now everyone only cares about sales/money. Nobody wants to risk making a game that may not sell enough. As a result we do not get any great JRPGs like the old days. In the old days, developers were all about passion, perfection, hobby and dreams. They did not care for the money and that is why we got those memorable masterpieces. I really miss those old times when I used to look forward to the next big RPG by Squaresoft. I loved Breath of Fires, Suikoden and Grandia too. Those were the good old days.
More like the development costs of this console cycle were too prohibitive for creative game making. Hopefully if what Sony said during their conference then prices on the dev side will come down.
Just wish the greed aspect would subside.
indeed when my grand pa used to say they dont make em like they use to now i understand what that mean
Brave Fencer Musashi
Dark Cloud
Tactics Ogre
Final Fantasy Tactics
Legend of Dragoon
Rogue Galaxy
Breath of Fire
Tales of
Skies of Arcadia
Ni no Kuni
Star Ocean
Dragon Quest
I must have a next gen Chrono game. It just needs to happen.
Unfortunately I doubt we'll see VC3 in the States except by fan translation.
...hurts my love for more Jansen.
Was about to say that, those who don't own a 360 and are JRPG fans are really missing out.
I'd love to try it. If it wasn't the only reason to buy an XBOX 360, I would.
There are several reason to own a 360
Tales of Vesperia (granted the PS3 version is better, but it's not state side)
Halo Series
Fable Series (really don't care for)
Gears Series (really don't care for)
Bethesda Games (better version than PS3)
Witcher 2 (if you don't own a gaming PC)
They're are plenty of reasons to own any console.
I bought a damn 360 years later for that game.
Suikoden 3! I still think it's the best in the series.
It's decent. But I'd argue for V, and then II, as being better.
Really, though, the only thing all Suikoden fans can agree on is that Suikoden IV was a steaming pile of ass.
Make Legend of Dragoon 2 and i'll die happy.
I still sometimes sit back and think to myself, "How will it feel to play a LOD sequel/prequel with modern graphics but the same old aesthetics and feel. Will I ever get the chance? Will they ever make it and if they do will it be what I have dreamed of?" Then I just shrug off the thought, thinking that it is just too much to ask... Imagining only make it more painful...
Breath of fire and Legends of legaia need to make a return too.
First localize games that are already made like
FF Type-0
Fire Emblem 12
Valkyria Chronicles 3
Soma Bringer
Ni No Kuni ds
Bravely Default and the dozens of others begging for a release over here
Then I would love a new
Lost Odyssey (my most wanted jrpg period)
Chrono game
Baten Kaitos
Radiant Historia
Valkyrie Profile
Vagrant Story
Skies of Arcadia
The Last Story
Jeanne D'Arc
Devil Survivor 3
If a third of those happen il be happy. Looks like the 3ds and Wii-U will be pretty consistent jrpg machines which bodes well.
ive said this in another thread: dragon force, panzer dragoon saga. shining force, beyond oasis. phantasy star, breath of fire, vangrant story, radiata stories, suikoden, secret of mana, grandia, legend of dragoon, final fantasy tactics (a true sequel, not non of this kiddish tactics advance bullshit).
lost oddesy 2
infinite undescovery 2 (the fact this was never made was one of the big screw up's of this gen)
star ocean 5 (more planets)
not a jrpg but would love to see it
magna carter 3
infinite undiscover! good catch. this is the only game i bought the 360 for LOL.
If you still have your 360, get Lost Odyssey. Arguably the best JRPG this entire gen.
Agree with Sexius Maximus. You need to play Lost Odyssey. Absolutely amazing game. One of the best JRPG's I have ever played and all round one of the best of any genre of game I have played. Basically, if you are a JRPG with an Xbox 360 you have to have Lost Odyssey. Hell, just borrow a friends Xbox and rent it if you have to.
Panzer Dragon Saga 2
Skies of Arcadia 2
Shining Force 4
A true Final Fantasy game like the old NES/SNES days
Lastly, Phantasy Star (not the online MMO whanna be cr@p), but a true RPG game like the Mega Drive dayz.
I've been wanting a true Phantasy Star sequel for two decades. I'll keep wishing on rainbows and unicorns for that one to come true.
The Last Story 2, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Grandia IV and Valkyrie Profile 3!
No Chrono Break?
If people forget about the Chrono series, not only will we never see another one, but it's also a crime to JRPGS to forget it.
Also Vagrant Story 2 and perhaps Valkyrie Profile 3.
Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, SMT / Persona and Suikoden are all kind of givens.
I'd probably play Legend of Dragoon 2 because in this day and age I'd expect it to be a LOT better than it's namesake. Legend of Dragoon is hands down the worst rpg I've ever played. It's like some weird hacked pirate wannabe version of Final Fantasy VII you'd buy in a bazaar in some middle eastern country- nonsense dialogue, nonsense story, terrible naming of things (Winglies? The moon that never sets?), 1D characters, music that sounds like a 5 year old composed it, an elusive, silver haired bad guy etc. I'm a huge rpg fan and that game is a serious mess. The battle system too, god, completely broken.
And I'm not judging it by todays standards. Some of my favourite rpgs are on the SNES for chrissakes.
Oh and Breath of Fire neeeeeds a new game, and while Capcom are at it they should reboot or continue Onimusha.
Reboot Star Ocean. The concept is great, but they screwed everything up with the ending of 3. Then they piled on with an average prequel that no one really cared about because they knew the truth of the universe.
Final Fantasy return to roots.
Shining Force 4 (only if it's made by Camelot).
Golden Sun 4
Grandia 4
Suikoden 6
Baten Kaitos 3
Skies of Arcadia 2
Arc the Lad 5
Vandal Hearts 3
Chrono 3
More Fire Emblem
If any of the above actually happens (except Fire Emblem), I'll be absolutely shocked.
a whole game generation and most of those games were never
redone in HD.
I wish I knew the thought process of these companies.
Valkyrie Profile!!!!!!!!
ahh I remember when I first bought VP on PS1 and man did I fall in love. Incredible battle system, beautiful opening cinematic, some of the best damn music I ever heard and great characters. Not to mention the replay value for a turn based rpg was thru the roof. So many possibilities you wanted to play thru again and again. That game, along with Thousand Arms, FF Tactics, and a few others is the reason PS1 is my favorite console of all time with the PSP as my second (cuz you can play PS1 games on it)
Yes, Yes and definite YES to all those 5, I enjoy every single one of the series mention.
There is one thing missing, I am hungry for the continuation to Xenosaga series (I feel Xenosaga 4 is hinted at the end of 3). Xenoblade chronicles does not count as it's a different series.
Xenosaga? Really? I played all 3, but found that I was forcing myself to finish, because I found it really boring. The story was ridiculous...
Hopefully we'll see another Lost Odyssey. The game was meant to be a trilogy, but that was put on hold, because the game didn't sell well.
I'm not so sure we'll see another Grandia game though.
is more like "bring a load of Jrpg's on next gen consoles" because this gen is stuffed with shooters ,driving ,and sport games that are milked like hell.
Id like to see the Secret of Mana revived on consoles and Id love to see more done with the Baten Kaitos seriese and another Skies of Arcadia.
I totally second Valkyria which is my favorite jrpg behind Final Fantasy X, and definitely Dark Cloud which is my favorite behind valkyria. lol
Suikoden for sure...but I feel like that RPG is dead!
My dream/wish list
*order is favorite-based
1.Suikoden (I fcking LOVE! this series Suikoden II is my 2nd all-time favorite JRPG after FFVII/Xenogears those 2 r my No1 yes both!)
2.Breath of Fire (I would love to play again a BoF game the time I spent playing BoF III has left only sweet memories in my head, so yeah a new BoF game plz!)
3.Legend of Dragoon (this game is in serious need of a sequel/reboot come on SONY, fans beg for a new LoD game for a decade now so do it d@mn it! I want to experience again the amazing battle system of this game, this phrase is still stacked in my head "Gust of Wind Dance!" ^__^ )
4.Grandia (it's truly a shame that this amazing series left forgotten like that for all those years I cant believe that no1 cared to make the 4th installment in all our current generation of consoles till now & the next one is going to start in just a few months..)
5.Star Ocean (yep give us a new Star Ocean game as long is so good like the 3rd one was (Till the End of Time) & not mediocre like the 4th one ~.~)
6.Legend of Legaia (the most important reason we really need a new Legaia game is ofc the amazing combo-martial-arts-based battle system that it was & still is something unique & amazing as it was to discover new special moves I would really love to experience it again)
7.Chrono Cross (the idea to travel to parallel worlds & try to change things is on each own a very interesting concept & that reason alone is enough to justify the return of this amazing game on HD consoles the prob now lie solely on SE as they cant make a game worth playing for the past 10+ years now..)
8.Wild Arms (yep that one must return also as it was one of the better ones JRPG we have see the good old days & it will be totally worth it)
9.Lunar (I recently start playing Lunar on PSP I'm just 15 hours in & it looks amazing till now especially story-wise & as I know this game & the sequel have both TOP review scores & I wonder why they never think to make a new one that will be something I would be very interested in for sure)
*10.FFVII-REMAKE (this can be my No1 most anticipated game of all time or something I would never wanted to play if the final result is not what I would like to see, so it's debatable as I cant really trust SE & bad thoughts comes always in my mind every time I'm thinking how many things can go wrong if SE decide some time in the future to finally do it...)

It's official
It's official:
Steve Ballmer is an world class, Olympic-caliber asshat: Most of us already knew this, of course. But if you're the CEO of what's supposed to be the largest software company on this planet, if not the galaxy, shouldn't you be more concerned about how your newly-released-but-in-the-toilet Vista operating system is (under)performing rather than raising, once again, the laughable specter of suing for patent infringements? Not Steve. Uh-uh. He'd rather talk about how Google reads your mail and how that McCarthyist list of 235 patent violations — which we haven't seen yet, incidentally — are ready for prosecution. Have you no shame, Mr. Ballmer?
Ken Starks, a.k.a. Helios, is a hero: Most of us already knew this, of course. Apparently, it's official now, as Carla Schroeder writes here in this LXer.com article praising Ken, whom I am proud to call a brother-in-arms in the FOSS wars, and with whom I am proud to be a partner in flying the HeliOS Solutions flag in the Wild West.
I'm a flake: Most of you already know that, of course (hey, wait a minute . . .). You would think that as editor and publisher of Open Source and Free Software Reporter, I would take the time to meet with OSFSR New Zealand correspondent Penny Leach after she flew all the way to San Francisco — for her work at Catalyst, that is, not to see me (an aside: the days when women would fly great distances to see me are, sadly, long gone — and I'm at peace with that) — but noooOOOooooo. I completely blanked the dates that she was visiting to promote Mahara and Moodle (very cool, check them out), even after recording it on my page at jott.com. My sincerest apologies, Penny. Next time, I promise.
Ubuntu makes it to the NBA, sort of: Tom Krazit, of C|Net, writes here that the Boston Celtics have adopted "ubuntu" as their rallying cry this season. A bunch of 7-foot GNU/Linux users? Not quite. Celtics coach Doc Rivers apparently chose that word "ubuntu" after learning of it while reading about Archbishop Desmond Tutu. For those of you keeping score at home, "ubuntu" has its roots in the Bantu languages of southern Africa as meaning "a philosophy of life that promotes the greater good rather than individual success." Of course, with the upper case U, Ubuntu is a damn good GNU/Linux distro, and a slam-dunk for anyone using GNU/Linux.
Bonnie Raitt was born to sing 'Angel From Montgomery': No, this has nothing to do with FOSS, but there is no one more more suited to sing John Prine's "Angel From Montgomery" than Bonnie Raitt. Period. Don't take my word for it — see it on YouTube here, and hear a duet with Prine here (note, the latter is not a performance video, but a montage of photos with the duet in the background).
The phone is silent . . . for now: 831-335-7303 is the number for HeliOS Solutions West and for Tux Project in beautiful downtown Felton. When you're here, don't forget to grab a cup of joe at the White Raven.

Grade • B
DVD • Hanging around with the undead has seldom been as fun as it is in "ParaNorman," a funny and thrilling stop-motion animated tale. Poor Norman (voiced by Kodi Smit-McPhee) is a sad-sack middle-schooler whose friends are mostly ghosts whom only he can talk to.
Then crazy old Mr. Prenderghast (voiced by John Goodman) dies and leaves Norman with the job of protecting the town against a vengeful witch who launches a zombie invasion. The voice cast brings plenty of humor to the cool Halloween atmosphere.
The whole movie looks effortless, which is why the DVD extras which celebrate the film's painstaking stop-motion process are so revealing.

Women's Super League: Up and Running
April 13th 2011 was a landmark day for women's football in England as Arsenal took on Chelsea in the inaugural match of the FA's Women's Super League (the WSL). And it was also a personal landmark day as I was able to watch the match on TV. Yes, I did. Women's football. On TV. I have never had the opportunity to watch women's football matches on TV before so excuse my excitement.
Featuring eight clubs including Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton and Liverpool, the WSL has been three years in the making. Official plans for the league had been announced in 2009, but it has been a league that has been needed for longer than that. It is the step forward that women's football in England has …

Stevens, Taylor. The Informationist
Vanessa Monroe, or Michael as she is known by her clients, is a young woman who has had a tough life. Leaving her missionary parents at the age of fourteen and living by her wits among gun runners in Africa, Michael developed the skills she needed to find out useful information, to defend herself, and to use her abilities to sell this information and make a comfortable, if sometimes dangerous living for herself. When she takes on an unusual but lucrative assignment, to find out what happened to an oil executive's daughter who disappeared in Africa four years earlier, she nearly finds herself in over her head. As her past catches up with her, Michael works frantically to find the missing girl while keeping herself safe from enemies, both old and new.
This thriller has been a long time coming. It features a brilliant and fearless protagonist who also happens to be a young woman. The pacing is excellent, the story compelling, the setting is exotic, and the character is fully developed. Highly recommended for suspense fiction fans looking for something a little different.

Hi All,
Another Penetration Testing noob here, great forum
I am currently trying to teach myself how to Penetration Test and I have a question regarding the use encryption wrappers to slip under Intrusion Prevention/Detection Systems. I have seen mentioned somewhere that stunnel can be used to effectivley hide any traffic from being picked up by an IPS.
However, I can only seem to find an installer .exe for stunnel. Is there a single .exe that I can just file transfer into the system32 folder on the target machine? Or is a remote install required? If so, could someone point me in the right direction for me to learn how to do this?
Is stunnel even the way to go? Is there a better way to circumvent IPS to obtain a shell?

Haunted Carolina
By Liz White, email@example.com, 803-777-2848
The nurse in DeSaussure College. Duel victims in Stewards Hall. McKissick Museum's old janitor. Even J. Rion McKissick himself.
These are a few of the figures who continue to make appearances across campus – at least according to legends – and during the university's ghost tours. Some are friendly, others not so much.
Every year around Halloween, University Ambassadors volunteer to take groups of students across the historic campus to share haunted Carolina stories and, of course, a little history. Though the stories are based on the university's historical roots, they do not claim to be historical fact.
This year, with more than 300 participants and 28 guides, students walked from the Horseshoe to the Russell House, making other stops in between, for some spooky fun on a chilly All Hallows Eve.
"Designed to be fun and to create community among USC students, the ambassadors shared a little history and possibly some folklore about the spirits who some believe walk our campus," says Denise Wellman, director of the USC Visitor Center. "Best of all, it provided an opportunity to check another item off on the now famous Bucket List."

Feb 29, 2012 - UW Sports InformationThe Wyoming Cowgirl basketball team closed out the regular conference season with a ten point loss, 58-48, against the TCU Horned Frogs on Tuesday night. The Cowgirls are now 11-16 overall and 7-7 in Mountain West play while TCU moves to 16-13 overall and 9-5 in league action.
"I thought we executed well at times tonight," said head coach Joe Legerski. "Our zone defense helped us stay in the basketball game. With us playing TCU in the first round of the MW tournament next week, we will have to cut down on turnovers and shoot better from the field. I thought Chaundra played very well tonight leading us with 15 points and seven rebounds. We will get back to work for next week."
Chaundra Sewell led all scorers for the Cowgirls with 15 plus seven rebounds, three assists and two steals. Ashley Sickles and Alison Gorrell each added eight points, while Sickles also finished with seven boards. Wyoming shot 17-51 (.333) from the field and 9-12 (.750) from the free throw line.
TCU was led by Natalie Ventress with ten points and five rebounds while Chelsea Prince recorded nine pints. The Frogs were 22-49 (.449) from the field and 10-13 (.769) from the free throw line.
The Horned Frogs got on the board with a basket from Latricia Lovings while a free throw from Alison Gorrell put Wyoming in the scoring column. Another basket by TCU put them ahead by three, 4-1. The Cowgirls answered with four straight points to give them their first lead of the game 5-4. They would increase their advantage to six, 10-4, with a 5-0 run. Free throws from Antoinette Thompson ended the run for the Frogs and they would score the next 9 of 11 to regain a one point advantage, 13-12, with 7:41 left in the first half. For TCU they would pull ahead by 15 points, 27-12, as that completed a 21 point run for the Frogs. Finally a three-point field goal by Gorrell ended a nearly seven minute scoring drought for the Cowgirls. She would hit a basket on the next basket for Wyoming to bring them to within ten, 27-17. After a three-point field goal by Meagan Henson, the Cowgirls ran off the final 8 of 11 points to close out the half but they still went into the lockerroom down 33-25.
Chaundra Sewell finished with a team high nine points along with three rebounds. She was followed by Alison Gorrell with six points and three boards. Wyoming was 10-28 (.357) from the field but just 3-6 from the free throw line. The Horned Frogs were led by Natalie Ventress with ten points and three assists. Chelsea Prince added seven points. TCU shot 11-21 (.524) from the field and 10-11 (.909) from the free throw line.
The two teams combined for six points in the first four minutes of the second half as the Frogs extended their lead to ten, 37-27. Out of the media timeout, the Cowgirls tried to close the gap with a 9-3 run to make it a four point game, 40-36. A running layup from Chelsea Prince ended a three minute drought for TCU followed by a Whitney Williams three-point field goal increased the lead back to nine, 45-36. Kayla Woodward answered back with a three-point basket of her own to once again make it a six point game, 45-39. The Frogs got the lead back to nine with a 7-4 run, 52-43, with four and a half minutes to go in the game. Wyoming tried to chip away as they scored five of seven points to pull within six, 54-48. Two straight baskets by Wynn and Lovings gave TCU a double-digit lead with two minutes remaining. The next couple of possessions came up empty for the Cowgirls as TCU would come away with a 58-48 victory.
The Cowgirls will now have about a week before heading to the Mountain West Tournament in Las Vegas. They will face the same TCU Horned Frogs, on Wednesday, March 7.

In this webinar, learn how you can connect Simulink with code-based simulation frameworks. First, we provide an overview of the different options, including the advantages and disadvantages of each approach. We then show how to connect Simulink with a code-based simulation framework, using NASA's Trick simulation environment as an example. During the demonstration, we show how to bring code from Trick into Simulink and also how to generate code from Simulink and export it to Trick.
Although not a prerequisite for this webinar, it is recommended that you also watch the Simulink and Stateflow for Simulation Engineers webinar, since that webinar focuses more deeply on the workflow of using Simulink and Stateflow for modeling, simulation, and testing.
About the Presenters:
Michael Carone is a senior product marketing manager for the Simulink platform. Michael's background is in mechanical engineering and engineering design processes.
Mark McBroom is a principal engineer and senior team leader in the pilot engineering group. Mark's background is in embedded software development.

Police release victims' names in Greenville shooting
Police say 64-year-old Timothy Edwards, 70-year-old Carroll Oakes, 69-year-old Vernon Leggett and 50-year-old Haywood Whichard, Jr. are all in stable condition at Vidant Medical Center.
We're also told the suspect, 23-year-old Lakim Faust, is being served with arrest warrants today. Greenville Police say he's being held under a $6 million secured bond.
9 on your side obtained Maryland court records for a Lakim Faust with the same birthday. The records show Faust faced multiple charges in 2004, including attempted first degree murder and assault with a deadly weapon. He would have been just 14 years old at the time.
Monday morning we learned the Pitt County Sheriff's Office denied Faust a gun permit in 2012.
Pitt Community College confirms that in 2006 Lakim Faust pursued a GED at the campus. They say they banned him indefinitely from the college's main campus for disrupting a classroom. Later that year, PCC police arrested him for trespassing and violating the ban. Faust took part in a Weatherization Tech program in 2011. Since then, he's had no affiliation with the college.
In 2010, Faust also worked at the Lucille Gorham Community Center on Ward Street in Greenville. He did maintenance and gardening for a non-profit that works to help kids obtain job skills. The director of the program tells 9 on your side she never had any problem with Faust.
"When he was here, I'm telling you he played with the children, he worked with our seniors, he carried them water and drinks, he teased us about all the things he was going to do in his life. So, that's the Lakim we got to know. Our regret [is] that the other Lakim came out in some way, if he's the person that did do these crimes," said Gorham Intergenerational Center Director of Programs Deborah Moody.
Tonight we're getting a small sample of what dispatchers were hearing on Friday.
CALLER: "He's walking, he's walking {inaudible}"
9-1-1: "Pitt County 9-1-1."
CALLER: "Hey, a shooting just happened here...a person has been shot and there's a black gentleman in a black outfit he's walking toward..."
9-1-1: "Listen to me! Tell me about the person that is shot."
9-1-1 operators were getting so many calls Friday, they actually called 9 on your side's newsroom and asked us to announce they had emergency crews on the way.
But in the midst of all the chaos, emerged everyday heroes.
We received several emails and calls about Erin Pierce. Witnesses say she saw the shooter taking a direct path toward the "Toys R Us" store and took action. She called the store and told employees to lock the door just in time.
"I have small children, and so that was the picture I had in my mind, is that somebody like me was in TOYS R US with small children and it was horrific and devastating. As a matter of fact, I had to call TOYS R US when we were leaving the parking lot just to make sure he was never able to get in there because I didn't know what had happened. And I burst into tears when the lady said that everybody was okay. It was a huge relief," said Pierce.
Pierce worked for United Airlines during 9/11 and credits her emergency training with helping her know what to do.
--Previous Story--
The Greenville Police Department identified the shooting suspect in the Greenville mass shooting as Lakim Anthony Faust. They say Faust, 23 of Greenville, opened fire injuring four people before being brought down in a gun fight with Greenville Police.
In a press conference on Sunday, Greenville Police Chief Hassan Aden confirmed they obtained arrest warrants that Faust will be charged with four counts of attempted first degree murder. More charges expected. Aden says Faust has not major prior arrest in North Carolina.
Police found a container of over 100 shotgun rounds with Faust when they took him down on Friday.
"Some of the way, the manner in which he carried it out, indicates that he has some idea as to what he wanted to do; but, we don't know that for certain," said Chief Aden.
Faust is recovering in police custody at Vidant Medical Center from gunshot wounds to his arms and legs. He was not wearing any body armor at the time of the shooting.
Chief Aden says this is an active investigation and they continue to interview people to gather more information.
All police officers involved with taking down Faust are on administrative leave. The FBI and state agencies are assisting in the investigation.
Chief Aden said they obtained a search warrant for the suspects apartment on Hartford Street in Greenville. During their search of the apartment they recovered shotgun ammunition boxes consistent with the shell casings found at all three shooting scenes. Police also recovered various papers and computer evidence. All evidence police say is helping the investigation in Friday's shooting.
Sunday morning, Chief Aden said he did visit with all the shooting victims and their families.
"The victims, I personally went to visit them this morning and the families. They are all in various stages of post-op recovery. They have very serious injuries and were hoping that they continue on the path to recovery," said Aden.
Saturday, people who live in the 200 block of Hartford St. say police raided an apartment in the area directly behind where the first victim was shot in the Kellum Law Firm parking lot.
Neighbors say police busted the window of the apartment Friday and used a robot to search the home because they didn't know what may be inside.
One neighbor says the person who lived in the apartment lived there by himself. They say he didn't really talk to anyone and kept to himself.
Greenville Police Chief Hassan Aden confirmed to 9 On Your Side detectives did search a home Saturday; however, he would not confirm the location of the home.
The victims are at Vidant Medical Center. Their families have requested privacy and do not want their names released. The victims' conditions are unknown at this time.
The Chief of Emergency Medicine, Dr. Ted Delbridge, says when the victims arrived at the hospital they were being treated aggressively by emergency management crews.
"The emergency department started receiving patients shortly thereafter, a little bit before noon. In all we received four shooting patients. Each of them was cared for by a dedicated team of emergency physicians, nurses, and trauma surgeons, and initially were evaluated and treated in the emergency department," said Delbridge.
9 On Your Side's Erica Anderson did talk to someone, off camera, about one of the victims shot at the law firm. They tell 9 On Your Side he is expected to be ok.
Marcia Vila first heard the news of a mass shooting while at work Friday. On Saturday, Vila learned one other victims was her neighbor.
"It's somebody you know in a sense. So, it's kind of even hits a little bit closer to home," said Vila.
The shooter is also at Vidant in police custody. His condition is also unknown, but we're told he's expected to survive.
Greenville Police Chief Hassan Aden told us the whole thing started at 11:41 a.m. at the Kellum Law Firm on Greenville Blvd.
A shooter armed with a shotgun shot a man in a Geico car in the parking lot before crossing Greenville Blvd. and shooting three more people in the Walmart parking lot.
A 9 On Your Side photographer found the first victim down when he arrived at the law firm parking lot.
A short time later, emergency crews were dispatched to the side entrance of Wal-Mart near Hooker Road where three other shooting victims were found outside.
Aden said both businesses are now crime scenes. One victim was shot at in the parking lot of the Kellum Law Firm and three were shot in the Greenville Wal-Mart's parking lot.
A witness shared pictures with 9 On Your Side of GPD officers moving in on the suspect. The witness told 9 On Your Side police kept telling him to stay down & put his hands up. The witness added the suspect was still moving around and police were unable to get to him until they slowly moved in with the SUV and got him in custody.
Aden said officers responded within mere minutes of the shooting calls. He added that their training in mass shootings, "likely prevented a larger crime scene with multiple, multiple victims."
Dianna Gee with Wal-Mart headquarters in Bentonville, AR, said no one was shot inside the Wal-Mart. She confirmed the shootings took place in the parking lot of the retail giant. She added all associates at the Greenville store are safe and unharmed.
Police diverted traffic from both Greenville Blvd and Hooker Road. All roads opened Friday evening.
The motive in today's shooting is unknown.
Greenville Police are working investigators from the NC State Bureau of Investigation to solve the crime.
The Pitt County Sheriff's Office, the NC State Bureau of Investigation, the NC State Highway Patrol, NC Alcohol Law Enforcement also responded to the incident.
Investigators still have not released the name of the shooter.

By the last days of October, much of the nation will be pulling out their winter jackets to fight the chill. But the weather in New Orleans is just perfect in the fall. Sunny all day and just cool enough to want something on your shoulders at night, late October is the perfect time of year for a music festival in the Crescent City.
Voodoo Fest 2012!
The Voodoo Music Experience is a combination art and music festival taking place in City Park in New Orleans on over the weekend of October 26-28, 2012.
City Park is a large venue – the whole park is designated for the festival- so there are five stages for music. The festival's website allows you to create your own lineup and itinerary based on the artists' you prefer to see.
Ticket prices range from $500 for the 'Loa Experience' VIP ticket (which includes in and out privileges, drink specials, upgraded restrooms and more) to $90 for a single day pass.
Voodoo Festival Lineup
A wide variety of musicians are performing, including Neil Young, Green Day, Jack White, Nas, Kaskade and Coheed and Cambria and of course traditional New Orleans brass music provided by the Treme Brass Band and Preservation Hall Brass Band.
As you can see, there is music for nearly everyone's taste.
Voodoo Music Fest is Family Friendly
The event is very family-friendly, especially during the daytime. There are interactive art installations where children can play ( at least that was the case in 2011 when I attended), plenty of shade and eateries.
In the evening, the music gets more adult-oriented and you are more likely to see patrons imbibe and get a little crazy.
Voodoo Festival Art
"Voodoo has established itself as one of a handful of festivals worldwide that are major destinations for art lovers. People now go for the 'Voodoo Experience,' where they enjoy world-class performing artists, multimedia art installations, parades, light shows, craft and food booths, and a variety of activities. A surreal playground of sculpture and multimedia exhibits incorporate the natural landscape of New Orleans' City Park and engage festival-goers. The stellar cast of artists that create these installations has turned heads in the art community." – from ARTWALK by Simonette Berry
Some art installations will return from 2011; some will be replaced by innovative new works made for this year's Voodoo.
Looking for a New Orleans Bed and Breakfast?
Take a moment to peruse our bed and breakfasts in New Orleans. Some B&Bs are within walking distance of City Park; many others connect easily via streetcar, so you don't even need to drive or worry about parking for the festival!

Greeneville, Tenn. - Brevard surrendered a late lead in the eighth inning of game one of the Saturday doubleheader to fall to Tusculum, 9-7, but Casey Smith threw a five-hitter in the second game to split the doubleheader and give the Tornados the 3-0 victory to end the season series.
The Tornados move to 12-22, 4-16 SAC, while Tusculum moves to 26-10, 14-7 in conference play.
Game One: Tusculum 9, Brevard 7
Box Score
Randy O'Dell had three hits and Kramer Clark drove in three runs, but the Pioneers rallied to score four runs in the bottom of the eighth off BC reliever Dustin Haithcox (0-2) to come from behind to take the first game in Pioneer Park on Saturday.
Rolondo Bonner crossed the plate in the bottom of the first on Sean Cotten's grounder to put the Pioneers on the board. Cody Coffman drove in Nate Reid on a one-out groundout as well to plate two runs in the inning off BC starter Jacob White.
The Tornados answered with a run in the second. Christian Christopoulos opened the inning with a base hit off Dylan Hochevar and stole second to get into scoring position. After Hochevar retired the next two batters, Clark singled up the middle scoring Christopoulos to cut the lead by half.
Cotten continued to swing a hot stick on the weekend, driving a 1-1 pitch over the left field fence to put Tusculum up 3-1 in the top of the fourth.
The teams traded runs in the sixth as Christopoulos hit a sacrifice fly to left field, scoring Ron Patterson, while Reid answered in the bottom half of the inning with a solo shot to left field to put the score at 4-2.
The Tornados took their first lead of the game in the top of the seventh, with Champ Stuart providing the offense in the inning. Clark opened up the inning reaching on a walk and was moved to second on Zak Beard's grounder. Kameron Armacost was plunked by a pitch, giving way to Stuart, and the freshman reached as the left fielder dropped his fly ball. Stuart reached third on the play, with Clark and Armacost coming all the way around to score to tie the game up at four. Michael Franklin (4-2) came in relief of Hochevar, but uncorked a wild pitch, scoring Stuart from third to give Brevard the 5-4 lead.
Tusculum tied it back up in the seventh as Alexi Colon scored on a throwing error by the BC catcher.
Clark's infield single drove in two runs in the eighth, scoring Steele Myers and Zack Merriken to give Brevard the 7-5 lead, but Tusculum took over in the bottom half of the inning, sending 10 batters to the plate as Colon drove in two with a base hit and Payden Houser and Lukas Graves both drove in runs to cap the scoring in the first game.
Game Two: Brevard 3, Tusculum 0
Box Score
Beard went 3-for-3 with an RBI and Casey Smith (3-6) went the distance, scattering five hits while striking out five as the Tornados took the series finale from the Pioneers, 3-0.
The Tornados wasted no time getting on the board in the game, scoring in the top of the first. Patterson and Stuart reached on back-to-back singles to open the game, before O'Dell brought in Patterson with a grounder to put Brevard up 1-0.
Smith retired the first seven batters of the game for the Tornados before Branfy Arias broke up the perfect game with a base hit up the middle, but Arias was thrown up trying to steal and Graves grounded out to end the inning as Brevard held the 1-0 lead after three.
Beard drove in Myers in the top of the fourth and Clark drove in O'Dell in the fifth to increase the Tornados lead, and though Tusculum threatened with runners in scoring position in the fourth, fifth and sixth, Smith was able to escape any damage and retired the Pioneers 1-2-3 in the seventh to end the game.
Brevard returns home to Gil Coan Field on Wednesday, April 6th, as they jump out of conference to take on King College. The Tornados defeated King earlier this season in Bristol, Tenn. on February 22nd, 13-11. First pitch of the nine-inning contest is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m.

JACKSON — Three federal judges say they won't redraw Mississippi's legislative districts or order the state to hold a new round of elections in 2013.
The order came yesterday in a lawsuit that the state chapter of the NAACP had filed earlier to challenge state House and Senate redistricting.
Legislative maps have to be updated once a decade to account for population changes, giving more seats to heavily populated areas and taking seats away from areas that have lost residents. Lawmakers' first chance to update after the 2010 Census came in 2011, but those efforts failed because the Democratic-controlled House and the Republican-controlled Senate couldn't agree on a plan.
Current lawmakers were elected in November 2011 in districts that were drawn after the 2000 Census, and Republicans won control of both chambers. The 52 senators and 122 House members are chosen for four-year terms.
The House and Senate approved updated district lines earlier this year to account for changes revealed by the 2010 Census. Because of Mississippi's history of racial discrimination, it's required to get federal approval for any changes in election laws or procedures. In September, the U.S. Justice Department approved those maps but said people or groups could still challenge the redrawn lines in court.
In October, the Mississippi chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People asked a panel of three federal judges to redraw the districts and order a new round of elections in 2013. That request was denied by Judge E. Grady Jolly of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals and U.S. District Judges Tom S. Lee and Louis Guirola Jr.
Carroll Rhodes, the attorney representing the NAACP in the case, did not immediately return calls for comment Monday and it was not clear whether he would appeal the judges' ruling. The lawsuit had argued that legislators currently are serving in "grossly malapportioned districts" that violate the principle of one-person, one-vote.
The NAACP says in its lawsuit that the redistricting plans legislators approved in 2012 contain fewer majority-black districts than those the NAACP proposed in 2011.
Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann, a Republican who's the state's top elections official, praised the judges' ruling, saying it heads off the need for a "costly special election."
"It has always been my position the Mississippi Legislature should be able to redistrict itself and not the federal courts," Hosemann said.
Republican Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, who presides over the Senate, said the Senate map is fair and was approved "with overwhelming bipartisan support."
"Today's ruling was a victory for taxpayers, who believe in fair elections," Reeves said in a statement yesterday.
Mississippi's population is 37 percent black, and its voting-age population is 35 percent black.
The Senate approved its map on a 46-5 vote May 2, with one Democrat absent. The map has 15 majority-black Senate districts, or 29 percent. When federal judges drew the Senate map a decade ago, it had 12 majority-black seats, or 23 percent. Between 2000 and 2010, population changes resulted in one more district becoming majority black, bringing the total to 13 seats, or 25 percent, as legislators embarked on drawing new maps.
House members voted 70-49 for their chamber's plan on April 26, with 63 Republicans and seven Democrats supporting it. The House plan increases the number of districts with a majority-black voting age population from 41 to 42. That's 34 percent of House districts.
