There's a new game sitting at the top of the throne of sales for Play-Asia, and it's pretty much the game you would expect it to be based on all the controversy surrounding its forfeited Western release. I'm talking about Koei Tecmo's Dead or Alive Xtreme 3.
DualShockers recently reached out to Play-Asia to ask about the sales of the beach volleyball game, and Play-Asia explained to them that the jiggle-and-bounce title featuring the all-girl cast has managed to break their sales record, with a representative stating…
"I am able to confirm that we have broken all previous sales records for Play-Asia.com with the release of DOAX3."
"DOAX3 set our current record for pre-order copies sold of a single title from any region in the history of Play-Asia.com. Our previous record holder was the Japanese release of J-Stars Victory Vs. for the PS3 & PSVita."
That's some big news right there. This also follows-up on previous reports that the game's physical copies had sold out of Japanese retailers and Play-Asia was having a tough time keeping it in stock.
Also, there are a couple of things that this means. For one, it means that imports of Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 have proven false the claims that there was no market for a cheeky volleyball, mini-game title in the West. Two, it also verifies that the gaming media does not at all speak for gamers. In fact, it appears to be just the opposite as far as politics and censorship is concerned.
Now this isn't to say that all gamers out there like games like Dead or Alive Xtreme 3, but it is to say that there is an audience for the game who wants titles like this.
Unfortunately, Koei Tecmo did not want to endure the media onslaught from Western journalists in America and Europe who would undoubtedly take the company to task for being sexist, racist and misogynistic. It's become a staple talking point amongst many members of the press these days.
In fact, one journalist imported Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 only to deride its themes. In the end, he ended up having a meltdown on Twitter due to the backlash.
Now don't take it that this is a "good" game in the traditional sense. Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 is about mellow titillation. It's not even really softcore porn and nowhere near that level of showing skin. If you want to see some jiggling, some bouncing and a lot of flirtatious playfulness from beach-going bikini girls, then that's mostly what the game achieves. It's a dress-up simulator for the most part and no where near as vile or as corrupting as some members of the press may lead their audiences to believe. Obviously there's fan-service but it's extremely tame compared to a game series like Senran Kagura.
Anyway, Koei Tecmo managed to win out in this rare case because they didn't have to suffer through a media barrage of bad press or "woe is women" articles from sites like The Mary Sue or Gawker's subsidiaries, but they also managed to make some decent bank on import sales. It was a risky venture but it appears it may have paid for the suits at the Japanese publishing company.
You can import the Asia version of Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 right now from places like Play-Asia.com for the PS Vita or PS4.

About this property
Relax on the decking of this cosy holiday lodge and admire the idyllic views of the surrounding Perthshire countryside.
Set in a beautiful location in the heart of rural Perthshire, S87832 is the ideal escape for a small family or two couples who want to spend time together in a superb countryside location. Accessed via a rough track, this detached lodge is nestled within the owner's well-kept 6 acre grounds, and boasts super views of the surrounding landscape. The front of the lodge offers raised decking and a patio overlooking a small lake, perfect for al fresco dining or just relaxing with a glass of wine. Observe the range of wildlife in the grounds, with regular visitors of fallow deer, red squirrels, pheasants and a family of ducks who live on the lake. For those who enjoy walking or cycling, there are numerous established public footpaths and walking routes that lead from the grounds out into the countryside.
There is much to do in the surrounding area for all ages; the Loch of the Lowes Nature Reserve is close by and has a children's hide and visitors centre. The property is located just a short drive from Atholl Memorial Fountain and Dunkeld Cathedral. Nearby is Dunkeld, where there is a good selection of independent shops, galleries, deli cafés and restaurants, and is a great place to spend an evening to enjoy the lively arts and music scene. Next to Dunkeld is Birnam, one of the best preserved historic towns in Scotland, and home to the Beatrix Potter exhibition. This area is known as Big Tree Country and the famous Birnam Oak, one of the oldest trees in the area, can be seen while enjoying a walk along the River Tay. If you would like to explore further afield, Dunkeld railway station has free parking and provides easy access to Edinburgh, Perth, Aviemore and Inverness.
S87832 has been thoughtfully furnished and equipped with everything you will need for an enjoyable holiday. On the ground floor the open plan kitchen/dining area has a well-equipped kitchen with modern appliances, and the dining area will comfortably seat four people around the table. The property is welcoming with a double bedroom with an en-suite shower room, a twin bedroom and family bathroom. The comfortable living room is well-presented and situated on the first floor. Dogs are welcome at S87832, but are asked to be kept on the lead when outside of the lodge as ducks and chickens roam freely in the grounds.

"S87832 was an adventure! The walks from the door were glorious. The duck pond, when it froze, was a highlight for my 11 year son. The lodge itself was cosy, clean, very peaceful and spacious. Beds truly much too comfy! We loved the sound of the water from the burn as we fell asleep. The very large varanda was great to watch the twinkly stars, wrapped in a cosy duvet. We were met by our hostess and delightful daughters and felt very welcome and at home. Its great to have such friendly neighbours to wave to on a cold frosty morning. Felt homely. Can't thank our hosts enough for such thoughtful care, including the welcome basket surprise. We'd love to come again. Special place"
"We had a lovely relaxing stay in S87832. It is in a beautiful location surrounded by trees, the only sounds being from the wildlife. Heather, Craig and family were so friendly and we knew we could call on them if there were any problems. Everything that was needed was supplied in the lodge and the welcome pack was a lovely touch. We were only staying for three nights but we thoroughly enjoyed our time there."
"Excellent location, lovely lodge, very friendly owners, peaceful surroundings."
"Great lodge, stunning surroundings"
"Lovely lodge with lovely owners. Beautiful place if you want peace and quiet. Local wildlife on your doorstep."
"Fabulous week, weather good, only 20mins of rain. Not as hot as south but good temperature for walking!"
"Lovely lodge in the middle of nowhere. Very peaceful weekend, great to recharge yourself. Would gladly recommend this lodge to anyone. Even had a wee psycho chicken that followed us everywhere."
"A great trip, made very welcome on arrival and the cottage is a perfect base for touring the area. We would definitely return."
"Lovely lodge. Idyllic location. Would definitely go back"

Dress watch is an indispensable watch for men. No matter how many sports fake watches or high-complex watches, he has to have a formal watch, which is perfect. Today, I will bring you the ultra-thin ZF factory Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Q1282510 replica watch for men. I hope everyone likes it.
The details of the dial
From the overall, this ZF factory Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Q1282510 has a full, silky 40 mm 18K rose gold-plating case with a thickness of 8mm and a beautiful eggshell yellow dial for an inviting sense of sensuality. The simple dial has a three-hand in the center, and a date display window above the 6-hour mark position, showing thte connotation of the wrist. It uses the imported 9015 replcia Cal899-1 self-winding movement, which is accurate and reliable. It matches with a dark brown leather strap and a warm rose gold, showing the wearer's unique charm and gentlemanly atmosphere.
This Jaeger-LeCoultre Master is very popular in the market.
As a simplified version of the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master, this overall layout is almost identical to Jaeger-LeCoultre. Just subtract the moon phase function and replace it with a simpler calendar window design. The Jaeger-LeCoultre launched by ZF factory fhas always been a very popular style in the market, often out of stock. This version of the same version is technically completely difficult and can make thinner and better.
The glass is the same as the original with the arc (the market is basically flat in the sale version). Observing from the side of the case, you will find there is slightly curved. In order to achieve the same effect, OM factory need to adjust the mold several times in a consuming and laborious manner to ensure that the charm and feeling are comparable to the original.
The overall workmanship is very good! The position of the metal nails and the balance line is well done.
The ultra-thin of the case
The side case is extremely thin, only 8 mm. The elegant curved lug design, with the crown, simple lines and elegant shape set off the outstanding features of the Master Master series has always been regarded as a classic round watch.
The lugs are much more delicate, and there is no common problem with the unclear outline of other replicas.
The back designs with a transparent back, and you can see the movement inside the watch through the bottom cover. In addition, the movement is the familiar 9015 series, and the manufacturer has modified the function of the movement.
ZF factory Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Q1282510 Pairs with a brown leather strap. The texture is soft and comfortable, and the buttons are different from the previous ones. Because the style of the counter has changed, the master phase of the ZF is also made a prominent sign of the Jaeger-LeCoultre. The old version of the moon phase master logo is different, and careful friends should notice.
ZF factory Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Q1282510 replica watch is opened mold according to the original. It feels extra-comfortable when worn. Moreover, the transparent bottom cover provides a glimpse of its precision self-winding movement. Perfectly inherits the qualities and concepts of the ultra-thin master series.
Therefore, if you want to buy this ZF factory Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Q1282510 replica watch, please visit our website: https://www.goodywatch.com/TC-MALE-JAEGER-1.ws for more details and contact us.

Attorney James Dimos, a member at Frost Brown Todd LLC in Indianapolis and past president of the Indiana State Bar Association, has been hired as deputy executive director of the American Bar Association.
The ABA announced the appointment in a statement issued today. Dimos' full-time staff position is effective Aug. 31.
"I am excited by the opportunity to devote all of my energies to the American Bar Association and its members," Dimos said in the statement. "I look forward to working with the talented staff at the association and its dedicated members to serve the legal profession and America's lawyers."
According to the ABA, Dimos will serve as second in charge of ABA staff and represent the executive director as needed. He will be responsible for several functional areas, including ensuring effective communications with ABA sections, divisions and forums. This will involve getting the insights of these ABA groups on pending issues and understanding their views.
ABA Executive Director Jack Rives called Dimos "a most welcome addition to the ABA staff. Jim has an extraordinary background for this very senior leadership position on the American Bar Association staff. He's been a bar leader at every level," Rives said. "He's a perfect liaison to state and local bar associations and his years as a practicing attorney will also be invaluable."
Dimos served on the ABA's board of governors from 2010-2013, chairing the ABA Finance Committee in 2013. Dimos had been in line to serve as the organization's treasurer in 2017 before his appointment to the staff position.
A graduate of Wabash College, Dimos earned his law degree from Washington University School of Law in 1986. He also is past president of the Indianapolis Bar Association.
Dimos has practiced law for more than 30 years with a focus on antitrust, copyright, First Amendment and media, patent, product disparagement, trademark, trade secret and unfair competition issues. He has represented a significant number of companies listed on the Fortune 100.
"Jim is a talented lawyer and a wonderful partner, with passion for the legal profession," said John Crockett, chairman of Frost Brown Todd. "We will miss him here at Frost Brown Todd, but are excited for him and proud of his selection to serve in senior leadership of the ABA."

Michael Avenatti Denies Rumors of Cable Show With Anthony Scaramucci
Stormy Daniels' lawyer Michael Avenatti is denying rumors that a show starring himself and former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci is in the works.
TV agent Jay Sures reportedly discussed the potential show with executives at CNN and MSNBC. The concept behind the program is that Avenatti and Scaramucci would debate one another about politics and current events, reports the New York Times.
Avenatti in his role at counsel to Daniels has been one of President Donald Trump's most outspoken opponents in recent months. Scaramucci was fired from his role in the White House in fewer than two weeks on the job. He nonetheless has remained one of Trump's most ardent defenders.
"I have no interest in television right now," Mr. Avenatti said. "I enjoy my law practice and look forward to prevailing on behalf of my client Stormy Daniels."
Representatives for the cable networks, Sures and Scaramucci did not comment on the rumor to the Times.

Climbing Leader: Allister Fenton tel: 082 093 8562 email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Hiking Leader: Ulrike Kiefer email: email@example.com – for those not feeling up to climbing Blouberg's big walls, but rather for a hiking and exploring weekend.
Blouberg forms part of a tribal trust owned by the Hananwa tribe. Currently there is no permit system in place and the only payment required is for secure parking at Frans' Kraal.
Secure parking is in a rural village at the foothills of Blouberg at what has become known as Frans' kraal, see GPS co-ordinates in Hector Pringle's online route guide. Please note that either Isaac is the only person to speak to regarding where to park and parking fee of R40/night will apply.
Many climbers have had the unenviable experience of enduring the long drive to Blouberg only to spend the weekend getting lost in a maze of mountain-slope foot paths. To avoid a similar fate make sure you are accompanied by someone who knows the right paths. Even so, the hiking is tough and steep and will take an average of 4-5 hours.

Can you believe we have been in Uganda four months now?! That's 1/6 of our two-year commitment! When you say it that way, it really feels like time is flying. So much has happened in such a short time. We are really starting to feel at home here. The learning curve that seemed so intimidating at first is much more manageable now – exciting even. We look forward to the new experiences each day, and while we would not call life here easy, it's definitely not that difficult anymore either – it's "middle-middle," or "somewhat," as they say here.
We have just finished our first term at The Amazima School, and there is so much to remember, share, and for which to be thankful (if you haven't had a chance to watch our end of term recap video, check it out here). That being said, there is one highlight from first term that has really stuck with me (Dustin).
I work with a Ugandan pastor named Daniel. Daniel is awesome! Ashley says we are like twins (I know I see the resemblance). I have learned so much from him, and we work very well together. Anyway, Daniel and I teach three Bible classes at The Amazima School, and also help run the campus ministry. This means helping run Sunday morning worship at the school, Thursday evening chapel/youth services, small groups, etc. As a result, we have been able to connect the discipleship process from church, to small groups, to the classroom.
I wish I could adequately share how far the students have come in such a short time, but I know words on a page will never sufficiently tell the story. However, I do have some words that come pretty close – they are not my words mind you, but we will get to that. First we need a little backstory. Most of the students at the school come from families and churches with very warped theologies. Some of it is just a lack of discipleship, but often it is intentional where pastors manipulate families and villages in order to get money from them.
As a result, much of the belief system of these students is built on fear. A fear where poverty is considered a result of sin; a fear where everything bad is the result of demons or an angry God who is punishing them; a fear that believes if God doesn't give me everything I request, I must be doing something to upset Him. Fear exists everywhere, and one of the greatest fears we discovered was the fear of losing salvation.
One week in class, as we were talking about sin, grace, and forgiveness, the students started sharing their fear of losing their salvation for committing certain sins. We found out approximately 90% of the students believed that if you asked for forgiveness for your sins on Sunday, sinned on Monday, and died Monday evening before you had a chance to repent, you would lose your salvation and go to Hell. Daniel and I were shocked, but more so we were saddened. Saddened by the thought of such a fear gripping the hearts and minds of these students. Saddened by the thought of it controlling their thoughts and their actions. Saddened by the fact that these students were slaves – slaves to fear – not knowing the freedom that is offered through the finality of the cross.
What resulted was a weeklong discussion on the assurance of our salvation. We had debates, we examined Scripture, and we spent significant time discussing just how big God's grace is because of the unbelievable sacrifice of Jesus. Slowly by slowly (another Ugandan phrase), we started to see a great burden lift off the shoulders of our students. During Friday's class we decided to give the students the weekend to look at some Scripture, talk with their peers, and spend some time in prayer. We told them we would finish the discussion on Monday.
Monday came, and God showed up in a way that we should come to expect by now, but often don't anticipate. First period we gave the students an opportunity to share any thoughts or questions they had from the weekend. One by one, students shared about the freedom they have in Jesus. They spoke with confidence about God's grace. They read scripture about the finished work of Jesus on the cross, and with heads held high, they talked about how they have nothing to fear. Our first period class was amazing, but God was just getting started.
Second period we started the conversation the same way, and a couple of students shared some basic thoughts from the weekend. Then Gorret, a kind, little Ugandan girl raised here hand. Gorret has a peaceful, disarming quality about her. To look at her, you would expect a timid, agreeable personality that never rocks the boat. But inside of Gorret is a fire I imagine can barely be contained by her tiny frame. As I called on Gorret, she spoke the following words with such passion and conviction, I only wish I could have recorded them for you to hear as well:
"In Galatians 3:1-3 Paul calls the Galatians foolish because they had begun in the Spirit but now they are trying to keep the law to be Christians. To me this means I did not do anything to earn my salvation. It was a work of the Spirit because I believe Jesus died for my sins. So I do not lose it if I sin. I can't do anything to earn my salvation but I also can't do anything to lose it, because God adopted me as His daughter. So I am a daughter of God and Esther (a student sitting beside her) is a daughter of God; that makes us sisters. If I get angry with Esther and abuse her, does that mean I am no longer my father's daughter? No! I am still His daughter. There's nothing I can do to make me stop being His daughter."
Mic drop. The room fell silent. Tears filled the class (some of the students cried too). It was the perfect ending to a week of difficult conversations, sadness, and frustration. And it was just one of a seemingly infinite number of times God showed His faithfulness this term. He is so good!
I wish I could say every day was full of victories like this one, but that is simply not the case. Some days are hard, and sometimes the students just don't get it. They will spend the next three weeks at home, and we wonder how many "steps backward" they will take. But we also know that God cares for these kids more than we ever could, and we have nothing to fear.
Fear has the power to cripple us, but it only has that power if we let it. As Bob Goff says; "Fear is a punk." But God's love - God's love drives out fear. And rest assured, if God's love can conquer the life-long fears of 72 students at The Amazima School, it can overcome yours as well.
Looking forward to watching God work term 2,
For some of the Scripture we used on the subject of assurance and security of salvation, check out John 10:28-29; Romans 3:23-28; Romans 8:31-39; and Hebrews 9-10.

Since I'm actually at home today, I'm back to posting a gratitude list on a Tuesday.
Let's just get right to it!
- Time at home
- Finding a new Netflix show
- Sunny days
- The LAST week of February
- My husband and I both having a day off at the same time yesterday
- Having a day off by myself today
- The school district revising the calendar in a way the kids aren't in school until June (yet, standby for more snow possible)
- A working washer and dryer
- Motivation to spring clean early
- New candle scents to welcome spring (early). If I act like spring is on its way, it will come. Right?!
- Winning a book from a Goodreads contest! And from one of my very favorite authors, Gretchen Rubin. Hoping it arrives soon!
- The ability to say "no" to working (I don't do it very often but I did say it yesterday)
- Target's clearance corners
- New sheets that stay on the bed (hopefully!)
- My fun little Pocket Camp: Animal Crossing game on my phone
I'm stopping here so I get back to my early "spring" cleaning since I'm focusing on J's room. All the socks found safe & dirty under his bed. Bonus item: Thankful for finding all his missing socks among other "treasures" under the bed. And not finding any spiders or other spooky insects.
What things are you thankful for this week?

Chapter 114: Re: My Heart Beats For You
"After your operation, we can try being together?"
"Let's talk about it after the operation."
Jian Chenfeng once held much anticipation in his heart and believed that they could be something. However, he still chose to pay with his life for his younger sister instead.
Jian Xin obtained his heart, while he, had nothing at all.
After losing this person, life still continues on. But Jian Chenfeng will never learn to smile again. He even did not want to see Jian Xin, because whenever he saw her, he would be reminded that the heart in her chest, was the heart of the one he loved.
But she was his younger sister, so Jian Chenfeng would protect her for her entire life, but the new Jian Xin seem to have become more willful. In the past, she would often stay at home to rest because of her body. But now that she has a healthy body, she did not know to treasure it and would frequently go out to places of entertainment and make friends with dubious people. She would wantonly squander money, act arrogant and domineering, like she was a completely different person.
Jian Chenfeng never knew that his younger sister was so thoughtless, was she letting herself act more freely or was it innate? Jian Chenfeng couldn't help but feel it was not worth Yumo's sacrifice, the woman he used his life to pay for did not hold any feelings of gratefulness to him. Instead, she was enjoying a luxurious and filthy lifestyle as if it was her right.
Jian Chenfeng controlled her spending and sent her into a school, but she would still always cause some kind of trouble and remained unchanged despite all their admonishments. In the end, Jian Chenfeng also gave up.
Two years after Yumo passed away, Jiang Donglin and Jian Xin married.
After she was married, Jian Xin exercised some restraint and opened a coffee shop completely as a pastime.
But Jian Xin and Jiang Donglin never had a child despite being married for years. Jian Chenfeng adopted a child, named "Jian Simo" and prepared to cultivate him into the future heir of the Jian Family.
Only later did Jian Chenfeng find out that Jiang Donglin and Jian Xin slept in different rooms not long after they were married. Their relationship was very good, but they were just not good together on the bed. Jian Xin apparently resisted Jiang Donglin's touch, going as far as to say it's "disgusting".
Jiang Donglin once accidentally said something to Jian Chenfeng while drunk, "Was it because Jian Xin has Yumo's heart that she would be so mentally conflicted toward me, his older brother?"
Jian Chenfeng gave him a punch right after he said those words.
According to Jiang Donglin's logic, would he say that the reason Jian Xin's personality changed so much was also because of the transplanted heart from Yumo? Yumo was such a cheerful person, such a passionate person, even if there were influences, shouldn't it be on the good side?
Jian Chenfeng always felt that the Yumo he knew and the one Jiang Donglin knew weren't really the same person. They were obviously blood brothers, then why were there such a huge bias between them? In Jiang Donglin's eyes, his younger brother seems to be lacking any good points and covered in weak points. Every time this happened, Jian Chenfeng would wish that Yumo was his own younger brother. If it were him, even if he had to bear the infamy of incest, he would still do everything in his ability to cherish him, love him.
Forget it, none of this was important anymore.
Yumo was already dead, all his expectations were merely beautiful fantasies.
Jian Chenfeng was determined to adopt a child despite his parent's protests, and that child was Jian Simo. he threw all of his remaining emotions into this one child.
Jian Simo also did not disappoint him. At fifteen he started to participate in company affairs, at eighteen he could already take charge of a section by himself. The reason why Jian Chenfeng adopted Jian Simo at first was because his features were forty to fifty percent similar to Yumo. In the end, Jian Simo started to resemble Jian Chenfeng more and more as he grew. It wasn't his appearance that was similar but his personality, they both held a frozen face that was distant to people.
Perhaps it was because he felt he was raising him askew, Jian Chenfeng no longer stayed close to him at forty-five. Besides going to work, they usually did not have any more interactions.
This year, Jian Xin successfully gave birth to a pair of twins through using a test tube baby. Jian Family's father and mother started to put their efforts into those twins, they always never liked Jian Simo much. Even if he was very outstanding, he was not of their blood.
Jian Simo had believed that he would need to abdicate for Jian Xin's children in the future and did not fight it. He merely concentrated on working, accumulate experience and make good preparations for his own future.
However, he didn't expect that his foster father who was always cold to him would sign his name on his will without any hesitation the year he passed away.
The moment he stopped breathing, Jian Chenfeng's face revealed a serene and free smile. Jian Sim eyes overflowed with tears at the sight. In his memories, his foster father never smiled, he was always working so dry and tedious, working hard at work every day. He had believed that his foster did not know how to enjoy life, but now he found out that in the past, he was only treating life as if a responsibility he couldn't avoid.
His happiness no longer existed in the human world.
