The small whorled pogonia had not been seen in Vermont since 1902, despite multiple unsuccessful searches, and was believed to have died out in the state, according to the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department. However, a small group of the delicate plants has now been documented in Winooski Valley Park District, Chittenden County. “Discovering a viable population of a federally threatened species unknown in our state for over a century is astounding....

The United States beat Europe 19-9 in the biennial competition, however, by the event’s third day, celebrations appeared to descend into political smears for some supporters, with one video showing fans chanting “F*** Joe Biden” from the stands. The video, seemingly taken from a spectator and posted to Twitter, pans a crowd of hundreds as a chant briefly breaks out and some raucous fans can be heard shouting derogatory remarks against the president....

Allegri was visibly angry during his post-match interview as well, pointing to Federico Chiesa for failing to step up after coming on as a substitute. The manager said in his post-match press conference: Meanwhile, Allegri admitted he made some wrong decisions as his side failed to maintain their one-goal lead, allowing AC Milan to equalize and share the spoils.

Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition was originally spotted on a GameStop listing roughly a month ago, and was even rated by Australia’s OFLC, but we didn’t really have a clue to what the Ultimate Edition of Dragon Age would feature – luckily, the British Board of Film Classification has our backs. The BBFC has listed the content that would be included in the title - if it were to be officially announced by BioWare!...

In that period of time, a number of Duke Nukem Forever ideas and concepts were added and teased, but one new idea was recently cut from the final project. Duke, the character, is known for a lot of things, but one that remains constant is his love for the ladies. Oozing machismo and testosterone from every part of him, his interactions with voluptuous females not only provided insight into him as a character - they also gave young pubescent gamers some of their first glimpses of…er, parts of the opposite sex....

Gearbox Software announced today that Duke will be coming back across all major platforms on May 3, 2011, in North America. For the rest of the world, it’s a mere three day wait beyond that, and everyone can finally use those pre-orders they’ve had since 1999. At long last, fans the world over will be able to get their fix of Duke Nukem Forever. That we would even be seeing a Duke game this year came as a surprise when it was announced at PAX last September....

It’s been clear for some time that there wouldn’t be any shortages of dragons in Skyrim, but Howard has now confirmed that in practice, the number of instances with dragons will be limited only by a player’s willingness to explore. Whether the average player will have the guts needed to take on more dragons than they have to remains to be seen, as Bethesda’s dragon design philosophy will likely have many players doing their best to avoid the flying enemies....

“Luciano Garbati, the sculptor behind quite possibly my favorite piece of art ever (Medusa with the head of Perseus) just announced that he received permission from the City of NY to install a bronze version of her for the public to enjoy!” she announced. “I AM SO EXCITED.” Someone asked her where the Medusa statue would be erected. “She’ll be 7 feet tall and stand in the park across from the New York County Criminal Courthouse, which is where Harvey Weinstein was tried,” Bonnelly responded....

Dr. Elysse Versher, an assistant principal at West Campus High in Sacramento, was taken to Kaiser Permanente South Sacramento Medical Center after experiencing a seizure days after her parking space was graffitied. “I walked to where my assigned parking spot is and saw the ’n-word’ five times - five times,” Versher, who has worked for the school district for three years, told Sacramento station KXTV. Versher and her family’s safety were also threatened....

Both upcoming free titles would be generous offerings in their own rights, and having them release together is a further demonstration of the Epic Store’s free game generosity. Void Bastards has never been on the Epic Games Store before, so it will join the long list of games that have debuted free on the platform. Yooka-Laylee is another of those games, despite one of its sequels already being on there....

The first and most important reason for the buzz around Eternals was always the diversity, something that was promised not just in front of the camera, but behind the camera too. When Zhao was tapped to direct the movie, she wasn’t as well known as she is now. But she was an Asian-American woman directing a big-budget superhero movie, and that, in and of itself, was rare. The movie is also set to feature Salma Hayek, Gemma Chan, Kumail Nanjiani, Lauren Ridloff, Don Lee, and Brian Tyree Henry, among others....

Desbois described ongoing obstacles in holding alleged war criminals accountable and other challenges that will survive the conflict amid Russia’s four-month-old invasion of Ukraine. A French Roman Catholic priest, Desbois has been recognized internationally for his work documenting the Holocaust and identifying the mass burial sites of Jews, Roma and others killed across Eastern Europe by Nazis during World War II, according to the news organization....

By now, everyone in the community knows the story of Orestes Lorenzo Perez. Just over two weeks ago, the former Cuban Air Force major flew to a beach town outside Havana in a 31-year-old Cessna, picked up his wife and two sons and spirited them back to Florida. It wasn’t the first time Lorenzo had defied Cuban airspace: on March 20, 1991, he zoomed into Key West’s Naval Air Station in a Soviet-made MiG and promptly defected....

This movie required a lot of firsts for the actor. The film, adapted from a British West End musical, sees Grant doing a northern English accent for the first time, sing onscreen for the first time – and, of course, don a wig, heels and dress to become the drag mentor for main character Jamie New (Max Harwood). Speaking to Newsweek, the actor revealed that when it came to drag, he learned from the best....

During an interview with Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon on Friday, Handler explained why she publicly criticized her ex-boyfriend for supporting Trump. “So he doesn’t want to pay 62 percent in taxes because he doesn’t want to go from ‘50 Cent’ to ‘20 Cent’ and I had to remind him that he was a Black person, so he can’t vote for Donald Trump and that he shouldn’t be influencing an entire swath of people who may listen to him because he’s worried about his own personal pocketbook,” Handler said....

Across two years, Duntsch injured 32 of his 38 patients, maiming many and leaving them with life-changing injuries. His best friend Jerry Summers (played by Dominic Burgess) was left a quadriplegic and two of his patients, Floella Brown and Kellie Martin died after receiving surgery. Today, Duntsch is serving a life sentence in prison for the maiming of 72-year-old Mary Efurd in 2012. Who Is Jerry Summers and What Happened to Him?...

The apparent inconsistencies of the U.S. healthcare system have proven a regular topic of debate on social media, whether it’s comparing the prices of an uninsured hospital stay in America with one in Europe, or horror stories of patients receiving bills running into six figures. Now New York-based copywriter Steve Nass and product designer Ivy Hu have weighed into the discussion with Dr. Mario Insurance, a browser-based send-up of the classic 1990 action puzzle game Dr....

This was hinted at by Dracula co-showrunner Mark Gatiss when he was asked by Radio Times whether there would be another season of the BBC show, streaming now on Netflix in the U.S. “It’s very hard to kill a vampire,” he said. “What they do is resurrect.” However, Dracula’s death at the end of the first series did seem pretty final, as he feasted on the toxic blood of Zoe Van Helsing (Dolly Wells) in a murder-suicide having finally found the courage to die and bring his reign of terror to an end....
