Michael Vick says Kevin Kolb is starting quarterback for Philadelphia Eagles

Michael Vick is trying hard not to fan the flames of what is turning into a heated quarterback debate for the Philadelphia Eagles.

The backup totaled 321 yards, including 37 on the ground, and threw two touchdowns in the Eagles' 35-32 win over the Lions on Sunday in place of anointed starter Kevin Kolb, who was out with a concussion. After the game, head coach Andy Reid reiterated that Kolb would be the starter when the Eagles visit Jacksonville next week.

On Monday, Vick said he will dutifully return to the bench and wait for his number to be called again.

"It's totally OK with me," Vick said in a TV interview with ESPN. " Kevin is out leader. I know how good he is and what he can do. I came into this year as the backup. That's my mindset. That's the way it is. I'm willing to accept that."

Vick sparked a stagnant Eagles offense with 175 passing yards, 103 rushing yards and a touchdown after replaced the injured Kolb in the second against the Packers in Week 1. Kolb had completed just 5 of 10 passes of 24 yards when he was injured.

Still, Vick contended he was just happy to get out on the field.

"it was great to go out and have a chance," Vick said. "Everyone had faith in me. It was gratifying."

Sadie Frost to Take DNA Test After Half Sister Claims

Sadie Frost has been left reeling after a woman contacted her alleging she is the star's half-sister, according to a U.K. report. The British actress opened up about her father David Vaughan's womanizing in her new autobiography, "Crazy Days".

And the revelations prompted an unnamed woman from Manchester, north England to contact Frost as she thinks Vaughn may be her father. A source tells Britain's Daily Mirror, "Sadie is shocked. She knew her father was pretty wild but she thought she knew all of his children."

"At the back of her mind she thinks there may be even more." Frost will reportedly undergo a DNA test later this September to establish if the mystery woman is a relative.

Reviews on Best Adventure Movies

Well, I believe that adventure movies are the most popular category in the Hollywood. So what do you think that makes these adventure movies great and worth watching? Well, to a very large extent the category is primarily defined (and you can say redefined) by movies themselves – the movies that we remember are primarily the most successful ones.

Below is a review on best adventure movies that I have handpicked from past. The selection includes movies from wide range, from science adventures to pirate adventures, etc. I believe that the essential elements for a movie to be best adventure movies are great story, a good hero and a good villain or a situation that could bring tension in to the movie script.
So let’s start with our review on best adventure movies ever made:

1. The Long Kiss Goodnight: This movie is a story about a happily married mom who lives in a suburban area; however, she cannot recollect anything about the time before giving birth to her daughter some 8 years ago. However, one night she has an accident and after that she starts to recollect her past slowly. But it becomes a crucial time for her as a former enemy of hers sees her on TV and breaks away from the jail to kill her and take revenge.

I believe that this was a terrific adventure movies but it never received the credit it should have been given. I will give a six out of 10 in terms of my category of review on best adventure movies.

2. The Fugitive: This movie is a story about a respected medical practitioner Dr. Richard Kimble who is accused falsely and convicted for killing his wife.

Circumstances give Kimble the opportunity to escape from the prison and prove his innocence. Tommy Lee Jones and Harrison Ford have acted brilliantly in this movie.

I will give a seven out of 10 in terms of my category of review on best adventure movies.

3. The Curse of the Black Pearl – Pirates of the Caribbean: Well this movie is in the list just because it did manage to bring the pirate adventure movies to the mainstream cinema after a gap of almost more than a decade.
However, I also believe that the movie without Geoffrey Rush and Johny Depp would not have been that meaningful.
The story of the movie was something like this: Will Turner and Captain Jack Sparrow need to work together to form and unlikely partnership to face a group of cursed pirates whose leader was treacherous Captain Barbossa.
Though, both Turner and Sparrow had different goals, while Turner wanted to rescue her girlfriend, Jack wanted his black peal back. I will definitely give a nine out of 10 in terms of my category of review on best adventure movies.

So, what are you waiting for, you have gone through mine list now create your own list of movies and just start watching them at your home or PC.

Sony's game console to show 3-D movies, get wand

CHIBA, Japan – Sony's PlayStation 3 game console will work as a Blu-ray disc player for 3-D movies and music videos, not just 3-D games, with a software update download starting Sept. 21.

The free-of-charge update for movies and other content had been promised for later this year. But the date is being moved up to ride on the momentum of 3-D popularity, Sony executive Hiroshi Kawano said at the Tokyo Game Show Thursday.

The annual event in this Tokyo suburb features game machines and the latest offerings from game-software makers. It opens over the weekend for the public. A preview event was held Thursday for reporters and business officials.

"The appeal and impact of games will be definitely enhanced with 3-D technology," Kawano said during a two-hour presentation at the Sony booth.

The 3-D capabilities for the PlayStation 3 will not be as thorough as they are for 3-D Blu-ray disc players. The game machine will have no problem playing 3-D movies, but some parts of the menu and other minor portions of some DVDs will play only in 2-D, Sony said.

Sony also showed a motion-controller wand for the PlayStation 3 called Move, similar to the one already on sale from rival Nintendo Co.'s Wii. Sony said Move will go on sale Sept. 19 in the U.S. and Oct. 21 in Japan.

A 5,980 yen ($70) "starter kit" for the Move comes with software called "Beat Sketch!" which allows people to make computer-graphic paintings on the TV screen using the motion-controller stick.

A similar kit for the U.S., with a different game, costs $99.99, and the wand by itself costs $49.99.

Move is cheaper than Microsoft Corp.'s Kinect, which sells for $150 in the U.S. and 14,800 yen in Japan.

Kinect is a system to control gaming motion without a wand. It doesn't require the player to push any buttons, and the game is controlled by the player's movements.

The PlayStation 3 already plays 3-D games with an upgrade that could be done over the Internet earlier this year.

Some 38 million of the PlayStation 3 video game machines have been sold globally so far, according to Sony Computer Entertainment, the Japanese electronics and entertainment company's gaming division.
