The recent Arctic blast in the United States over the Christmas weekend proved that certain animals can’t defy gravity. Iguanas dropped in Florida and a slew of Mexican free-tailed bats in Texas all fell to Earth, apparently frozen to death. Except they weren’t dead.

More than 115 of them died while trying to thaw and recover....

The interception stopped a drive during which the Bills had moved the ball 52 yards in just over two minutes. They were threatening to score a potential game-winning touchdown and thwart a shocking comeback by the Vikings. Ultimately, they came up short. And it was thanks to Peterson’s big play. Peterson explained on an episode of his “All Things Covered” podcast with two-time Super Bowl champion Bryant McFadden that he was able to make the play for one simple reason....

You hear that term tossed around in the autumn and it makes sense, because five conferences are almost certain to produce the four teams that will compete in the College Football Playoff. When it is carelessly and erroneously applied during the winter — especially in March — to the sport of basketball, it is meant to exclude not just the Mid-American Conference and the WAC, but also a league filled with teams with as much tradition and recent success as at least one of those Power 5 leagues....

The video, which was posted by Newsmax host Benny Johnson, showed a packed venue with Trump supporters cheering for the former president as he approached the podium. The footage then cuts to a clip moments later to show Biden addressing what appears to be a small crowd in his home state.

Still, fans want to try and recreate these styles with cosplay. They want to dress up as their favorite characters from games, anime, and so on.

After all, the Nilfgaardians are ruling over a world that, despite having complex magic, is still in what could be equated to the Middle Ages....

Sharp was especially intrigued by turn-based RPGs where a gripping story meets strategic battles. Creating a fantastical world is exciting but what makes the game, and the turn-based battle system, in particular, tick are the formulas and calculations underneath it all. Some of his early inspirations came from platformers, after all those were the first games he ever played, but a true influence for creating games came from later on with RPGs....
