On one hand, it is absolutely the same game that millions of fans have spent countless hours on, flinging their fine feathered friends at smugly grinning swine. On the other hand, the PS4 and Xbox One versions of this game cost $50. That’s right, fifty dollars. As in, forty-seven to forty-nine more dollars than it costs to play this game on any other smartphone or tablet....

Allegations of cronyism and corruption have dogged Estrada since he was elected two years ago. Critics say Estrada did not pursue a $1 billion tax-evasion case against tycoon Lucio Tan, a major campaign supporter. But he did intervene in a stock-manipulation probe on behalf of a business friend. Singson’s allegations are much more serious–and last week various officials called for Estrada’s resignation. Cardinal Jaime Sin, the influential Manila archbishop who played a key role in the 1986 revolt against Ferdinand Marcos, wrote in a pastoral letter that Estrada “has lost the moral ascendancy to govern....

Graham Potter’s switch to Chelsea came as a surprise this summer. This was partly because of the pace at which things developed.

There are three different kinds of content players will be able to purchase: civilizations, boosters and empire extras....
K.C. finds itself in the familiar position of playing as the underdog in the ALCS, yet to close as the betting favorites through five games. This is hard to believe for a team that finished with the AL’s best record (95-67) and was one out away from tying and possibly winning Game 7 of the 2014 World Series, but this is a game about matchups. In fact, in 12 meetings with the Jays this season, the Royals have been the betting favorites in just one contest (July 12)....
Welcome to Sevastopol, where no dark corner is safe and the last sound you may hear is a 7 foot tall alien running up behind you with its (many) teeth, readied for the kill.

But while the likes of Michael Vaughan and Chris Silverwood have showered praise on Root the batsman, they believe an Ashes win will define him as a captain as well.
