The New Game of Thrones Sneak Peeks Make Us Worried For Some of Our Lovely Characters

Spring is here and that means a new season of Game of Thrones is waiting in the edge of this month.

We've all been dying for the smallest glimpse at what season six may bring, grasping to the splittest of seconds that flash across our screen in the few trailers that have been released so far. Now, there are actual clips, allowing us to check in with a few of our Westeros faves. (No, Jon Snow is not among them. Did you really think he would be?)

In the first clip from the premiere episode above, Cersei (Lena Headey) has learned of the death of her beloved daughter, Myrcella, at the end of last season, and she finds herself reminiscing about the way bodies decompose. It's so very gross, so very Cersei, and so very sad. However much we've hated this woman over the years, watching her and her brother-lover, Jamie (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau), deal with the loss of their child is no fun at all.

In the second clip, from a later episode, we join Daenerys (Emilia Clarke) and her Dothraki kidnappers as they arrive at a city, and Dany is welcomed "home." We kind of wonder if that welcome is actually sincere, given the way she arrived and fact that only moments earlier, she was told to "move your ass," but we'll have to wait to find out just what is in store for the Khaleesi.

In the third clip, once again from the premiere, titled "The Red Woman," Sansa (Sophie Turner) and Theon (Alfie Allen) are on the run, presumably just after they escaped from Winterfell in the season five finale. Dogs and voices can be heard behind them, so clearly they are being chased by Ramsay's (Iwan Rheon) men, but things don't look so good for them when they arrive at an icy river with no boat in sight.

Game of Thrones returns Sunday, April 24 at 9 p.m. on HBO.

Nigerian army Claims the Second Rescue of Chibok Girl

A second schoolgirl that was seized in the Nigerian town of Chibok has been found, the army says. But a spokesman for the Chibok girls' parents has cast doubt on the claims, saying that the girl's name is not on the families' list of those missing. An army spokesman said Serah Luka was among a group of 97 women and children rescued by troops in the north-east. Islamist militant group Boko Haram has abducted thousands of other girls in recent years, rights groups estimate. This comes two days after the rescue of the first Chibok girl, Amina Ali Nkeki. The army has previously given misleading statements about the rescue of the Chibok girls - in its initial statement after Ms Nkeki was found, it used a wrong name. In all, 218 girls remain missing after their abduction by the Boko Haram Islamist group from Chibok secondary school in north-eastern Nigeria in 2014. Ms Nkeki told a Chibok community leader that six of the kidnapped girls had died, but...

Obama administration Issues Transgender Access to School Bathrooms

The issue of directing public schools to allow transgender students to use bathrooms matching their gender identity is being discussed by the Obama administration on Friday. A joint letter from the Departments of Education and Justice will go out to schools on Friday with guidelines to ensure that "transgender students enjoy a supportive and nondiscriminatory school environment," the Obama administration said on Thursday. The announcement comes amid heated debate over transgender rights in schools and public life, which includes a legal standoff between the administration and North Carolina over its controversial House Bill 2. The guidance goes beyond the bathroom issue, touching upon privacy rights, education records and sex-segregated athletics, all but guaranteeing transgender students the right to identify in school as they choose. "There is no room in our schools for discrimination of any kind, including discrimination against transgender students on ...

Will Ferrell and His Bird Collectian As "The Birds are for God"

An acclaimed actor and comedic genius like Will Ferrell is incredibly pleased to spend some valued time with his incredibly expensive bird collection, according to his good friend Adam McKay. McKay, who has directed Ferrell in films like "Anchorman" and "Step Brothers," told HuffPost Live on Monday that Ferrell's home is brimming with birds of all kinds, and Ferrell himself is a bit of a bird whisperer. "He has giant cages on his property filled with different tropical birds, and these are the kind of birds that will bite you, that you have to be careful with, but when it's him, they just fly right to his arm," McKay said. "Often times if you're at his house ... he has, like, a cockatiel on his shoulder for long stretches." An affinity for birds isn't exactly surprising, but what will shock you is the enormous monetary value of Ferrell's flock. "He had to have his bird collection insured, and I think it's wor...
