Austin Animal Center received a call about a giant python on December 19. As a result of cold temperatures the snake was lethargic and residents were able to catch it and trap it in their garage. “When we get calls about danger noodles, a lot of times the size of the snake is exaggerated,” Kelsey Cler, from Austin Animal Center, told Newsweek: “But when Officer Moorman arrived to the residence, he was indeed greeted by an unhappy 16 ft-long albino reticulated python....
Scientists estimate this extinct species grew to around 20 feet in length and was hunted by Bronze Age Chinese as a result of conflict with humans. Researchers announced the discovery in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences. They showed proof for an entirely new species with various strange characteristics based on two specimens dating to between 1400 and 1000 BC.

Linked with an off-season move to LaLiga champions Barcelona, Griezmann was the hero for Atletico on Wednesday as his brace secured a 3-0 win over Marseille and the Europa League trophy. It may have been Griezmann’s parting gift amid Barca’s interest in the France international forward, who opted to remain in Madrid for the 2017-18 season despite Manchester United’s efforts to lure the 27-year-old to the Premier League. Asked about man-of-the-match Griezmann following Atletico’s third Europa League triumph, Gil Marin told Cadena SER: “It will depend on his feelings more than anything else....

Despite only coming out less than a month ago, many have already earned Ghost of Tsushima’s platinum trophy and are looking for more to do in the game. On average, it takes around 50 hours to get everything in the game, so it is no surprise that some of the more dedicated players have already achieved this. These suggestions would breathe a little new life into the game, giving those players that have already done all there is to do something else to strive for....
Ghost of Tsushima: Legends divides its missions into four difficulty types: bronze, silver, gold, and nightmare. With each difficulty, the potential for better rewards increases, allowing players to climb their way up to 110 eventually. The best gear, with a Ki rating of 110, can only be dropped in Nightmare mode, but there’s an alternate way to get these powerful items.

The recent trailer for Ghost of Tsushima: Legends shows four classes in total: the Samurai, Ronin, Hunter, and Assassin. Players can guess at what these classes will look like in practice, but it should be said that anything about how these classes will work is purely speculation. No one outside of Sucker Punch has concrete information, so fans should take everything with a grain of salt until official confirmation comes through....
Without a doubt, Ghost of Tsushima feels and plays like a singleplayer game. It’s very clear from the start that this open world romp is designed specifically for that type of gameplay, so when Sucker Punch announced Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, fans were pleasantly surprised. Though more and more games had started providing free content updates, adding in multiplayer to a game that doesn’t already have it doesn’t happen that frequently....
The design BlueEyed_Beth used for the controller features the red maple leaves that are present at the grave of Jin Sakai’s father. The leaves really make their presence known during the Ghost of Tsushima’s ending, when Jin has to duel the last person in the world he would ever want to face. The right grip of the controller then features the Sakai family crest. The analog buttons are also red to match the leaves....
The Bucks’ star forward and 2019 NBA MVP is under contract through the 2020-21 season, and his future plans have already sparked speculation around the NBA. “I’m not gonna talk about it a lot this season, and I’m not going to try to address it,” Antetokounmpo told reporters Monday. Antetokounmpo is eligible to sign a five-year, $253.75 million supermax extension next offseason, according to ESPN.

One Kansas family is asking their neighbors to keep an eye out for a “giant tan, brown hump” after their 10-year-old pet tortoise, Madmartigan, escaped their Wichita backyard sometime between Monday morning and Monday afternoon. While they believe that Madmartigan is still in the area, they are worried about her safety, particularly because temperatures have fallen in recent days, Harun Bahri told KSN News. “We are originally from Phoenix, Arizona, and in the winter times, we do get frost, but typically the tortoise is in a burrow and is actually warm and inside,” Bahri, whose wife has owned Madmartigan since she was a hatchling so small she could fit in the palm of a hand, said....
But this classic didn’t quite get the ending it deserved. Instead of the game ending on a flyout, groundout or such, Giants first baseman Wilmer Flores was rung up on a check-swing Strike 3 against Max Scherzer. First base umpire Gabe Morales ruled on appeal that Flores went around. Here’s the swing in question: MORE: Cody Bellinger’s clutch hit sends Dodgers to second straight NLCS Yeah, it doesn’t look like he went around....

Dole was giddy, Gingrich relieved. The Dole deal seemed heaven-sent: no need to borrow from a bank or solicit donations from interest groups or mortgage the new house in Atlanta. Just a friendly loan from one of the capital’s most admired elder statesmen, proud owner of the Medal of Freedom. But for the speaker the loan has its spiritual costs. For the former hellion of the House–once the eager scourge of the Washington establishment–is being bailed out by the ultimate insider, the man he once derided as “the tax collector for the welfare state....
