During BlizzCon, Blizzard unveiled several new heroes that they would be adding to Heroes of the Storm. One of the new heroes unveiled was Jaina, who is from the Warcraft franchise. Well the good news is that for gamers who have access to the Heroes of the Storm Alpha, Jaina’s character has been added to the game in the latest patch.

Blizzard has also unveiled Winter Veil skins which gamers can go ahead and buy to add some customization to their hero characters, much like is the case with other MOBAs such as Valve’s Dota 2. The Winter Veil skins include the Reign-deer Mount, Great-father Winter Rehgar, and Winter Veil Jaina.

These skins can be purchased individually but gamers who don’t mind spending money to get it all can do so by paying $29.97 for the entire bundle which pretty much includes what we have mentioned above. It is admittedly a tad pricey but we guess there are gamers out there who don’t mind spending money to collect these skins.

Blizzard has also announced what they are calling Stimpacks. These are basically consumables that will award additional gold and experience points in the game. However Blizzard has yet to mention how much these Stimpacks will cost and at the moment they are unavailable in the store. In the meantime you can check out Jaina’s Heroes of the Storm trailer in the video above.

Houston Texans wide receiver Andre Johnson is known as one of the best offensive players on the field. Off the field, he’s known for something else: He’s practically the living embodiment of Santa Claus.

For the eighth consecutive year, Johnson has treated at-risk children from child protective services to a shopping spree at a local Toys R Us store.

Johnson, who wears #80 on his jersey, gives the kids 80 seconds to run through the store and fill a shopping cart.

Johnson said his uncle came up with the idea.

“He was like, ‘Give ‘em 80 seconds to run through the store and let ‘em just get what they want.’ And I was like, ‘That’s not enough time.’ And he was like, ‘They can grab a lot,’” Johnson told the Houston Chronicle.

“So we did it the first year and when the kids came back, I was like, ‘Wow, I didn’t think they could grab that much stuff in that amount of time.’” he said. “So we just rolled with it from there and we just kept doing it every year.”

In reality, the kids get even more than what they can grab in those 80 seconds as Johnson also gives each child a gaming system and games as well as gifts to give to their siblings.

The final bill totaled $16,266.26.

It was so high that Johnson’s credit card company flagged the first register’s bill of more than $5,000 as suspicious. ESPN reports that Johnson had to call and explain it was really him spending all that money on toys.

“This is such a wonderful, wonderful blessing,” Georgia Gay told HoustonTexans.com. Her grandson, Benjamin, was one of the children who took part in the event.

“Can you put words on this? You can’t put words on this,” Gay said. “Especially as parents and grandparents, some of these things we won’t be able to buy at this time. I thank God for this, and I thank Andre Johnson for this.”

“I’m in a blessed situation so I’m able to help other people. That’s all that matters,” Johnson said in a Houston Chronicle video. “I’ve always said, if I was able to make it I would do stuff like this.”

Kids were able to run through the store and grab whatever they wanted.

“You go through stuff as a kid growing up. You understand certain situations,” Johnson told ESPN. “I understand some of the things these kids go through.”

(Reuters) – Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseny Yatseniuk said on Wednesday an accident had occurred at the Zaporizhye nuclear power plant (NPP) in south-east Ukraine and called on the energy minister to hold a news conference.

“I know that an accident has occurred at the Zaporizhye NPP,” Yatseniuk said, asking new energy minister Volodymyr Demchyshyn to make clear when the problem would be resolved and what steps would be taken to restore normal power supply across Ukraine.

News agency Interfax Ukraine said the problem had occurred at bloc No 3 – a 1,000-megawatt reactor – and the resulting lack of output had worsened the power crisis in the country. Interfax added that the bloc was expected to come back on stream on Dec. 5.

This is a story of the underdog. It’s about self-respect, it’s about never giving up. It’s about abandoning labels, overcoming judgment, rising above the masses. It is a story about a peanut butter cookie, topped with a chocolate Hershey’s kiss.

Formally called the “peanut blossom,” these cookies are near-ubiquitous around Christmastime. They are the penicillin of cookies — they came into existence by accident. Legend has it that Ohio resident Freda Smith intended to make a batch of peanut butter chocolate chip cookies and after mixing part of the dough, realized her pantry was without chocolate chips. So, she grabbed a bag of Hershey’s Kisses instead and baked them atop the nutty confection.

The story does not end there. Ms. Smith entered her great mistake into the ninth annual Pillsbury Bake-off competition in 1957. Despite the objective deliciousness of Smith’s blossoms, her recipe didn’t even place in the contest. They were trumped by Gerda Roderer’s “accordion treats” — an Alsatian-type cookie that gets a unique shape by being baked in pleated aluminum foil. The main ingredients of Roderer’s winning recipe are butter, sugar, flour and vanilla. Nothing too spectacular.

These cookies earned Roderer the grand price of $45,000. Smith, on the other hand, left the Bake-Off with diddly squat. And yet, the peanut blossom has survived more than 50 years of cookie consumption, while the accordion treat is undoubtedly less popular. I’d personally like to demand a recount.

The prize-winning accordion treats were featured on the cover of the 9th Pillsbury Bake-Off Contest cookbook, which included all of the contestants’ recipes.

Smith’s cookie didn’t go totally unappreciated — it just took a little longer to get some recognition. In 1999, the peanut blossom was inducted into the Pillsbury Bake-Off Hall of Fame and was apotheosized in the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History. Sadly, Smith passed away in 1963 and didn’t live to see her heavenly recipe garner the esteem it always deserved. In her place, Smith’s daughter, Jo Anne Smith Lytle, accepted the honor at a ceremony held at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.

You can honor this subjugated sweet by whipping up a batch at home. Here’s the original recipe.

Though Bake-Off judges erred in 1957, the contest has produced a legion of great recipes that have become mainstays in American households, like French silk chocolate pie, candy bar cookies and loaded potato pinwheels. This year, the winner of the 47th Pillsbury Bake-Off Contest will be announced on December 3 and will win $1 million. This is the first year that voting is open to the public, and the winner will be announced on ABC’s “The Chew” at 1 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.

BURIEN, Wash. (AP) — Authorities say a driver crashed into a Washington sporting goods store on purpose so he could steal guns, and then he tried to hide in the ceiling.

The King County sheriff’s office says it arrested a suspect after a more than four-hour standoff at the Big 5 store in Burien, south of Seattle. The car smashed through a metal grate and glass doors at the business early Tuesday. No employees were inside at the time.

Sgt. DB Gates says authorities determined the wreck was an apparent burglary attempt targeting firearms after responding deputies found cases holding the store’s rifles and ammunition were disturbed. They also heard noises in the ceiling where they believed the suspect was hiding.

A tactical squad was called to surround the building, and authorities eventually apprehended the man. The team then searched for any other suspects inside.
