The 6-foot-long eastern brown snake was seen swimming in the ocean at a beach on the Sunshine Coast in the northeastern state of Queensland, according to the company that caught the dangerous reptile. It then slithered into a drain pipe at the front of a surf club, close to a children’s play area at Mooloolaba Beach. Eastern brown snakes, also known as common brown snakes, can be found across the eastern region of Australia....

The Cayman Islands Department of Environment announced the prehistoric find on social media, after it was handed into the DOE for further study. According to the Cayman Campus, it is a little over 4 inches (10.25 centimeters) long. The now-extinct megalodon is believed to have been the biggest shark to have roamed the oceans, with adults measuring a whopping 48 to 60 feet (15 to 18 meters). “That’s three times longer than an adult great white shark and about six times longer than the biggest Caribbean reef shark,” the DOE told the Cayman Campus in a statement....

The Men in Blue set a 163-run target for the Lankan Lions after being asked to bat first. Mavi then registered figures of 4/22 on his T20I debut as the hosts bowled out Dasun Shanaka and Co. for 160 to win the match by two runs and take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. In a video shared on his YouTube channel, Chopra was all praise for Mavi for bowling a game-defining spell, although he might not have been chosen as the official Player of the Match, elaborating:...

One way in which Rockstar is planning to tether the two experiences, though, is in the social interactivity afforded by their multiplayer components. Thanks to the Rockstar Social Club, the developer’s online hub for all of its games (think Call of Duty ELITE or Battlelog, but less stat overload and more event-focused), Max Payne 3 will allow gamers to organize in “crews.” As explained by Rockstar Creative VP Dan Houser, in an interview with IGN, these crews are designed to help organize groups of players in ways not feasible through the constraints of Xbox Live and PlayStation Network:...

PSG 3/1 to net 22+ in CL group stage The 18-year-old’s haul of four goals and five assists in ten matches across Ligue 1 and the Champions League represents a strong start to his time at Parc des Princes, although he has experienced something of a dip in form in recent matches,...

Women’s cricket has undergone a drastic shift in recent years. The Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) and the growing number of T20 matches have led to batters getting more aggressive. In an interview with The Cricket Monthly, the legendary Indian pacer was asked for her views on the impact of power-hitting on pacers. She responded: However, the 39-year-old did admit that the evolution of the game has forced pacers to get smarter....

Luis Enrique to leave Barcelona Netherlands international Memphis endured a tricky 18-month spell at Old Trafford and departed for Lyon in January, where he has made a positive start to life in Ligue 1 scoring three goals in seven league outings. De Boer, himself an ex-Netherlands star, believes Memphis was attracting headlines for the wrong reasons with his fashion sense while at United and says players can only get away with such attention if they are producing the goods for their clubs - like Aubameyang continues to do at Borussia Dortmund....

The player from Rosario, who began the game on the bench, led the victory Barcelona needed to celebrate another title with its fans against a rival that never gave up, reports Efe news agency. Without Messi, who is headed for the semifinals of the UEFA Champions League next week, Barca started out determined to assure their La Liga championship in the first half.

And when the Albiceleste bus pulled into the team hotel in Nizhny Novgorod on Wednesday ahead of the team’s second group game against Croatia, all of the supporters’ songs were about Messi. “By the hand of Leo Messi, we’re going to take a victory lap,” they sang. In 1986, Messi had not yet been born, but it was another hand that helped Argentina to World Cup glory: the hand of one Diego Maradona or, as he himself infamously said, the “Hand of God”....

Any fans worried about the new publisher’s plans for the game can now rest easy, as the studio believes delaying the game by just a little - not a lot - is all that will be required to make the Moscow-based shooter sparkle. Those who have been keeping an eye on Metro: Last Light already know it has been keeping fans excited via some intense trailers. In other words: Deep Silver’s announcement of a May 14, 2013 release date couldn’t have come a moment to soon....

Revealing a list of words that have entered regular usage following the U.K.’s vote to leave the European Union, Collins Dictionary defined the verb “milkshake” as the act of throwing “a milkshake or similar drink over a public figure in order to humiliate him or her.” The inclusion of “milkshaking” in Collins Dictionary’s “Brexicon” comes after a British man was ordered to pay the cleaning bill for Nigel Farage’s suit after he doused the Brexit Party leader with milkshake during a visit to Newcastle, England in May this year....

Noah became the first player from France to win a Grand Slam title in the Open Era when he toppled the teenage defending champion Mats Wilander in the 1983 Roland Garros final. The Frenchman is one of only two players from his country to win the singles title at his home Grand Slam tournament, the other being Mary Pierce (2000). Roger Federer does things that I don’t understand: Yannick Noah Noah first talked about how much respect he has for the ‘Big 3’ of tennis - Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic....

The announcement came from a live television interview with BBC News, one of the largest broadcasting corporations in Britain. Towards the end of the interview, Notch was asked ‘where he was going next,’ to which he responded as follows: How vague! On Twitter, Notch also teased the game twice in the last week, again only referring to it as the “space game.” It seems that this project, more than the other two has captured his attention and motivation....

His comments came after Ralf Rangnick’s side were credited with an interest in signing Aston Villa midfielder John McGinn. The Red Devils are reportedly looking at a summer move for the Scotland international. Addressing McGinn’s situation, former Aston Villa forward Agbonlahor has advised the 27-year-old against a move to Old Trafford. The Englishman is of the view that the player is better off staying at Villa Park. Agbonlahor pointed out Philippe Coutinho’s transfer to Aston Villa and claimed that Steven Gerrard’s side are more attractive to top players at the moment....

[HTML1] It’s no secret that Mario Kart 8 is one of the Wii U’s best games. Heck, the argument could be made that the game is responsible for saving the console last summer, months before Super Smash Bros. for Wii U would see the light of day. The game has a robust community and was widely streamed on Twitch for most of 2014, but it’s also clear that the enthusiasm for the game has dipped a bit from its height....

“Amber can be a little bit clingy,” he told Lifetime cameras in a confessional. “As much as we get along and as much fun as we have when we’re together, I just don’t want to be with her all the time. I don’t have those urges. So some of the cons I’m weighing out right now is trying to decide whether or not Amber is that person who I want to spend the rest of my life with....

Last weekend, Kyle Larson eliminated the chances of NASCAR having 17 drivers in the playoffs after earning his second win of the season. Larson’s win, however, kept Ryan Blaney on the playoff list as a winless driver. Having been knocked out of the playoff grid with three races remaining, Truex Jr. has already exhausted two shots after he failed to clinch a win at Richmond and Watkins Glen. He now has only one shot at Daytona this weekend, where NASCAR will wrap up the regular season....

This is a significant change from the usual posts about the highly anticipated follow-up, as players are usually asking Insomniac Games to include new gameplay features or costumes in its next game. The feature requests have included wall combat and web launches, while the suit requests have covered everything from Arachknight to The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Though there is plenty that gamers would like to see added, it seems like a portion of the fan base could do without the original game’s stealth missions....

Now that the story has been further fleshed out — BioWare started work on From Ashes after Mass Effect 3 development was finished — it’s time for that big marketing push as we get closer and closer to March 6th.
