Upon official announcement, ARK Park and its first trailer promised an immersive virtual reality experience suitable for players of all ages, one that allows players to learn about the dinosaurs they’re hunting in ARK: Survival Evolved. Players will venture on journeys, called Excursions in the game, to interact with various creatures (not just dinosaurs!) and collect “Gene Cubes” to gain additional knowledge about the open world they’re exploring. The latest trailer, released today, shows off footage from inside the engine and gives players a glimpse at the game’s development....

“A timetable for his return to the football field is unclear but we are thankful that he is doing well and is with his family,” Bielema said in a statement. “Thank you everyone for the well wishes, thoughts and prayers."

Chris Kennedy, from Lakewood, North Little Rock, put up his decorations at the beginning of November—a display that included the 8-foot-tall inflatable. But on Monday, Kennedy received a letter telling him to leave the area and take the inflatable, which has featured in his Christmas display for three years, with him. The mailed note was signed by someone posing as “Santa” and included racial slurs. “Please remove your [N-word] Santa Clause [sic] yard decoration,” the message read, according to local news outlet 10 WBNS....

Only at a minor league baseball game, and only in Arkansas. On Friday morning, the Arkansas Travelers -- the Double-A affiliate of the Anaheim Angels -- revealed two new mascots just in time for the upcoming season. Meet Otey, the smiliest opossum in overalls since that one time you had a nightmare about one, and Ace, a pantless stallion. One more time for Otey. Many Travelers fans have taken to the team's Facebook page to express their disgust at what they feel is the team perpetuating incorrect stereotypes about people in Arkansas....

Lawmakers voted to reverse the governor’s decision a day after Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson unexpectedly broke party lines. The bill also prohibits doctors from providing gender-confirming hormone treatment or puberty blockers to anyone under age 18. Hutchinson issued a veto on the ban on Monday, calling the legislation a “vast government overreach.” He said the bill, which had already passed the state Senate and House once, would interfere with physicians and parents “as they deal with some of the most complex and sensitive matters involving young people....

As seen in the leaked stills from Bones404, however, the Centrurion and Ninja both look extremely convincing as the first two DLC heroes, for not only are the in-game models consistent with the themes, art, and design styles found within For Honor, but also their physiques line up with a couple of the silhouettes seen in a season pass image that surfaced online about a couple of months ago. Of course, it’s important to note that Ubisoft did not confirm then which heroes would be added first, nor has the publisher and developer acknowledged the veracity of this particular leak....

As medical professionals, we’ve seen the cost of refusing the vaccine firsthand: Care for serious illness caused by SARS-COV-2 is invasive and traumatizing at best, both for you and for your family. Worldwide, for adults, there is a 30-40 percent chance of dying from COVID if you require intensive care. If you chose not to get the vaccine, it’s time for you to let your doctors know what ending well looks like for you....

“One of the things that was confusing as I came in and evaluated the rosters was there was just too many players called in for whatever reason from everywhere and no consistency,” Arena told Goal. Five takeaways from USA’s friendly draw Asked about some of the foreign-based players who had received scarce attention from the U.S. team despite success abroad, Arena made it clear that, at a certain point, too much experimentation with the player pool can lead to missed opportunities to truly integrate new players....

The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner looks like he might have a set of teammates finally worthy of his talents, with the Albiceleste resurgent under Lionel Scaloni. Argentina beat Brazil 1-0 thanks to an Angel Di Maria goal to end a 28-year wait for a major trophy in last year’s Copa America. They head into the game on a 36-match unbeaten run, meaning Saudi Arabia — ranked 51st in the world and under well-travelled coach Herve Renard — are likely to have their work cut out....

Almirola, whose crew chief Todd Parrott was suspended Thursday because of violations of NASCAR’s substance-abuse policy, showed he had a fast car Friday with a lap of 202 mph on the 2.66-mile high-banked tri-oval. Richard Childress Racing’s Jeff Burton (201.967) was next on the speed chart, followed by Almirola teammate Marcos Ambrose (201.876). Cup teams had 105 minutes of practice time Friday and few bothered to use all of it....

The End Citizens United/Let America Vote Action Fund survey, first shared with Newsweek, found HR 1—also known as the For the People Act—to be extremely popular among all voters in both states. In West Virginia, respondents supported the bill by 79 percent. In Arizona, 84 percent of likely voters supported the bill, and 73 percent “strongly” backed the voting rights legislation. The Democratic proposal also enjoys high levels of support among Republicans, despite ongoing efforts from several conservative groups to have the states’ moderate senators vote against it....

Ira Beavers, his wife Francine Nicholson, and their children had been on their way to Rocky Point in Mexico on July 30 when they were stopped at the border in Lukeville, Arizona, according to WTHR. Border Patrol found Beavers’ gun under a seat in the car. He had forgotten to remove the firearm, a 9mm Glock, from the vehicle before the drive to Mexico, Nicholson told the station. “We were stopped and our car was inspected just like everyone else,” Nicholson said....

In a hearing of the House Energy and Commerce Committee on February 11, Lesko said Hispanics were “very good workers” but implied they weren’t American citizens. The comittee was debating who should be prioritised to receive the COVID-19 vaccines first. “I worked with people that are Hispanic. I mean they’re very good workers,” Lesko said. “You know, we’re compassionate people, but for goodness sakes, we have to take care of American citizens, or people that are here legally, first....

In the release that accompanied the entry of ARK: Survival Evolved into the awards, Wildcard said that “if Ark wins the award, we will ensure that our fluffy friend quickly makes its debut on the Ark in the next major version update!” Many players seemed to feel this phrasing suggested that, should the studio fail to win the farm-animal trophy, no sheep would be present in the game. Feeling they were having the wool pulled over their eyes, gamers accused Wildcard of bribery and threatened to boycott the game....

According to the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, the most credible estimates of the total death toll from both bombings range from 110,000 to 210,000 fatalities, including men, women, and children—most of who were civilians. These deaths were caused by both the initial destructive blast and fires as well as radiation poisoning. Radiation poisoning is part of what makes nuclear weapons so destructive. Nuclear weapons explode because of a rapid nuclear reaction in which atoms are either split apart or fused together....

Often during the war in our mind to pick the best among players spanning different generations, our evocative nostalgia thrusts us to believe that players of the past were superior to the ones who ply their trade in the current era. The past always seems better than the present, or the future for that matter. Thus, the accomplishments of the modern day batsmen are shirked in the pretext of batting having been difficult in the past....

Journalist Jenn Dize shared details from the bureau’s files on the “Queen of Soul” after requesting them under the Freedom of Information Act. “Years ago, I FOIA’d @fbi files on Aretha Franklin. Today, I received the files,” Dize wrote in a Twitter thread on Wednesday. The files were incomplete, Dize said, but showed “repeated and disgusting suspicion of the famed Black singer, her work, and activists around her.” Franklin died at her home in Detroit, Michigan, in August 2018....

In recent years, argan oil has become so popular in cosmetics that the Moroccan government has stepped up efforts to increase the cultivation of argan tree groves. It’s sometimes even called “liquid gold.” No less popular is argan oil’s culinary uses. Consumers are not only drawn to its mild, spicy flavor (reminiscent of pumpkin seed oil), but also its purported health benefits....

With the games still scoreless, Gomez attempted to control the ball on the halfway line but was tackled, and Fernandinho subsequently broke to score. Lanus went on to lose 2-1 on the night and 3-1 on aggregate, and Gomez is now thinking of calling time on his career, at the age of just 24. “I’m thinking of leaving football,” he told TyC Sports, via Ole. “I’m hurt, I feel bad....
