Winnipeg Blue Bombers avoided free agency with the CFL's Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman Award this past season, re-signing Stanley Bryant to a new, two-year deal, keeping him tied to the Blue and Gold through the 2019 season.
Stanley Bryant wants to leave a long-lasting legacy in Winnipeg.
Bryant, the CFL's most outstanding offensive lineman in 2017, has re-signed with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on a two-year contract. The 31-year old was set to hit the free agent market in February. Word is Bryant's new deal is worth approximately $190,000 per season. His old contract was believed to be worth between $170-$180,000 per season.
"I want to leave a legacy here in Winnipeg," said Bryant, who was named the league's Most Outstanding Lineman this past season. "I feel we have the team and the parts to compete for a Grey Cup. This is the place for me that I feel is best for me to win a Grey Cup in my career."
Bryant originally signed with Winnipeg in February 2015 after spending five seasons in Calgary, where he won the 2014 Grey Cup and was named a CFL All-Star twice.
Since joining the blue and gold, Bryant has started every game for the team, which has boosted his consecutive games streak to 65.
"Stanley is an exceptional talent on our offensive line," said Blue Bombers General Manager Kyle Walters in a news release. "Obviously his winning the Most Outstanding Lineman award this season speaks for itself, and he is such a strong anchor for an already very solid group. He elevated his game a step further in 2017, and we're excited to see even more from him moving forward."
Bryant said returning to the Bombers for a fourth season was an easy decision. The team has improved every year since he arrived in 2015 and he thinks they're only going to get better.
"I didn't want to look anywhere else. I told my agent after the season, after Grey Cup week I had a couple days and I was sitting down and thinking about it," said Bryant, who has started 120 games in his eight year career.
"I was like, 'Do I really want to try and go somewhere else after being here the last three years and seeing the club improve each and every year?' I thought about it and I was like there was no other place I wanted to be but Winnipeg. Everything lined up correct with the (salary) numbers and everything else… so, a decision was made and I'm just happy about my decision."
Bryant said there's unfinished business in Winnipeg and it wouldn't feel right to leave before winning that Grey Cup that has eluded the franchise for so long.
"This past season, it was a good season for us but we have a lot more left in the tank. I feel I want to be a part of that when things happen and we win that Grey Cup. It's been a long time coming and I feel we can get it done. That's the main reason why I want to come back," Bryant said.
Bryant compared the current Bombers to the 2014 Stampeders team he was on that won the Grey Cup. He believes this Bombers team is capable of doing what Calgary did in 2014.
"All the pieces are there for us to go out and win a Grey Cup," said Bryant. "We just have to figure out a way to get over the hump and win come playoff time to win the games we need to win to go out and get to the Grey Cup."
Bryant, an international player, is one of five players re-signed by Winnipeg so far this offseason. The club has inked new deals with kicker Justin Medlock, running back Timothy Flanders, offensive linemen Jermarcus Hardrick and Pat Neufeld, and defensive back Derek Jones.
Bryant gets new deal, but will the others?
Re-signing Stanley Bryant was a big priority for Bombers general manager Kyle Walters, but there is still lots of work to be done. Winnipeg has 17 players from last year's team that are set to become free agents. The list includes some big names on both sides of the ball.
CB Chris Randle: The 29-year old was named the Bombers Most Outstanding Defensive Player this past season. He had a career high five interceptions and found the end zone twice.
LB Maurice Leggett: The Bombers defence never quite looked the same after Leggett went down with a ruptured Achilles on Oct. 14. The 31-year old was one of the most dynamic playmakers on the team, but will he be the same after the injury?
OG Travis Bond: A CFL All-Star and named the club's Most Outstanding Offensive Lineman in 2016. Bond was again a key contributor in 2017 and helped running back Andrew Harris to the 2017 rushing title.
DB T.J. Heath: Heath had five interceptions and a sack for the Bombers this year and was named a CFL All-Star. The 30-year old arrived in Winnipeg from Toronto in the quarterback Drew Willy trade.
WR Weston Dressler: The former Roughrider has looked great in blue and gold, the problem has been keeping him on the field. The 32-year old has missed 11 games over the past two seasons in Winnipeg.
WR Clarence Denmark: He's played his entire seven-year CFL career in Winnipeg and it will be interesting to see if he's brought back for an eighth. The veteran receiver 58 catches for 608 yards and 7 touchdowns a season ago.
DE Jamaal Westerman: The Bombers prized free-agent acquisition in the 2015 offseason. The 32-year old had seven sacks in 11 games this year before going down with injury. He has 32 sacks in 47 games over his three year CFL career in the Winnipeg.
Other free agents: DB/KR Kevin Fogg, LB Sam Hurl, LB Kyle Knox, DT Drake Nevis, WR Julian Feoli-Gudino, OL Manase Foketi, QB Dan LeFevour, FB Christophe Normand, LB Ian Wild.

Today California's state legislature will officially apologize to Japanese Americans sent to internment camps during World War II. This aspect of World War II is one many students don't learn about during history classes, but one that many FFT Fellows seek to understand and share. Today, we share the learning of Timothy Nagaoka, whose grandfather fought for the United States in the European Theatre during the war.
I teach Japanese as a foreign language to elementary and middle school students, many of whom come from immigrant families. Some families are from Central and South America, some from the Caribbean Islands, and others from Southeast Asia. I share this heritage. I grew up in Japan. My mother is sansei (third-generation Japanese American) from Hawaii; her father, a nisei (second-generation Japanese American), was one of many Japanese Americans on the island who enlisted after Pearl Harbor. He wanted to prove his loyalty to the country that had become very suspicious of his people, so he fought with other nisei from Hawaii in the 100th Infantry Battalion, which became one of the most decorated in military history.
Growing up, I heard my grandfather tell stories of fighting in Europe in World War II. Not until much did I learn of another battle fought by Japanese Americans on the mainland. It was not a battle of bombs and bullets, but a battle of patience and perseverance. Like my grandfather, who demostrated his patriotism by enlisting, many Japanese Americans proved their loyalty by enduring relocation to internment camps.
To fully understand and better teach this period of American history, I designed my Fund for Teachers fellowship to explore the Japanese American experience during World War II and – more specifically – the US government's handling of these citizens.
I drove 3,500 miles through 8 Western States over 11 days to research 10 monuments and former internment sites. I also stopped at the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles (where I took a selfie with George Takai). An unplanned experience was attending the Annual Pilgrimage at Heart Mountain Relocation Center in Wyoming, where we honored those who who advocated, resisted and fought for Japanese Americans. It was this stop where I met former Secretary of Transportation Norman Mineta and Senator Alan Simpson.
Throughout my fellowship, I focused on two topics:
• What Japanese Americans endured throughout relocation, and,
• How relocation of the Japanese Americans is remembered today.
During the fellowship, I filmed interviews with former internees about their experiences, which I'm using as resources with students and colleagues. I am also designing two curricular units that teach about the Japanese American internment experience: one for Japanese language teachers that incorporates phrases and dialogues used in camps; and one for English Arts and Social Studies teachers who want to teach about the topic. Upon completion, I will offer workshops throughout Boston Public Schools and through local non-profit teacher training organizations.
In my classes, I'm using the knowledge and connections I gained through my fellowship to teach about the forced internment of Japanese Americans during the war. Previously, I've taught Japanese customs, traditions, history and culture, but I'd never considered teaching the Japanese American immigrant story. I now incorporate into my language lessons words and phrases, such as gaman (perserverance) and shikata ga nai (can't be helped), that were often used by the Japanese Americans to describe their confinement. I've come to understand that by teaching my culture's extraordinary circumstances, I can deepen connections with students whose lives reflect similar themes, old and new.
On January 2nd, 1945, restrictions preventing resettlement in the 100 mile Exclusion Zone along the West Coast was removed. I believe a strong democracy lies in not forgetting the past, especially not the mistakes. My fellowship researching the plight of tens of thousands Japanese Americans was humbling and allowed me to gain a more complete perspective of the American immigrant experience. I am using this perspective to better understand (and teach) my students from immigrant families themselves.
Timothy Nagaoka teaches Japanese in six schools around the greater Boston area and has dedicated his career to creating opportunities for students and colleagues to connect with Japan. In recognition of his work, Timothy has received the John E. Thayer Award from the Japan Society of Boston, and the Henry L. Shattuck Public Service Award from the Boston Municipal
Research Bureau.

Hello all! Welcome to September—it's that time of year again when the magic of hunting season begins! The amazing wildlife, lifelong relationships, and sharing God's great outdoors with others overcomes most of our minds!
This year Kicking Bear will continue the tradition of bringing kids into the great outdoors for the annual Wisconsin Youth Deer Hunt! For more information and to sign up, please visit our website page HERE.
This September, we feature a story written by 20-year-old Kassidy Farris. She participated in a Kicking Bear Camp in Indiana when she was 13 years old—little did she know that it would change her life forever. Kassidy was given the opportunity to spend two days at camp and learn the basics of a new sport that she would soon call her passion. As she grew with the sport of archery, she found that God granted her the natural ability to shoot a bow while he guided her arrows through state tournaments during her high school career. Without Kassidy's friends asking her to go to a Kicking Bear Camp, and without Jodi Hicks as a mentor and friend, Kassidy would not have experienced the amazing journey and opportunities that Kicking Bear and archery have brought to her.
College Archer Inspired by Kicking Bear
Story by: Kassidy Farris
Kicking Bear Indiana
My journey in archery started in 2012, just a few weeks after I turned 13. Before that, I had never picked up a bow or known anything about the sport. An hour before I had ever heard of Kicking Bear, a few of my friends called me and asked if I would like to go out to Shakamak State Park for a camp. After giving me a brief explanation of what Kicking Bear was, I showed up not really knowing why I was there, only that it was outdoors and I was supposed to wear tennis shoes. I didn't know the next 48 hours would change my life forever.
After participating in many activities like field games, tomahawk throwing, and marshmallow fights, we learned how to shoot bows. With help from the volunteers and mentors at the camp, I was taught the basics of how to shoot a bow. A large group and I went out to the 3D range to shoot. After shooting at the first half of the targets, I realized that I was a natural at archery and that I really enjoyed it.
The next day when I got home, I told my dad that I loved the camp and shooting archery. I also told him I would like to have my own bow and start shooting more. He was very excited about my new love for archery, but he questioned if it was serious. After convincing him to take me shopping, we went to Gander Mountain and purchased my first bow. After shooting it for about a year, I grew out of it and got my first target bow. With the help of Jodi Hicks, I went on to shoot in my first competition (IFAA State) and ended up winning four straight years. Jodi has been a mentor at Kicking Bear Camps in Indiana because she loves being able to teach young kids about a sport that she is passionate about. She also enjoys watching how Kicking Bear changes young kids' lives as they grow up. Jodi is 21 years old and going into her senior year at Union College in Barbourville, KY.
Besides winning IFAA state, I also won several ASA state tournaments and traveled all around the country to compete in Las Vegas, Nevada, and Redding, California. In high school I competed mostly with a target bow and occasionally with a hunting bow. During my sophomore year of high school, I placed in state and won a scholarship to Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky where I now attend college.
Kicking Bear created a path in my life and I am forever grateful for the opportunities it has brought to me in the last six years. For the rest of my life, I'll continue to cherish the experiences and the people that I have been able to meet. Without archery or attending the Kicking Bear Camp with my friends, I wouldn't know all the amazing people I know now, and I would have missed out on this amazing journey.
Kassidy continues to shoot archery at Union College in Barbourville, KY. It is her second year on the archery team, and she continues to embrace every opportunity that she is given with the sport.
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
-Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)

ikr i really enjoy the E3
and third-party developers when announcing their games for PC a lot did not highlight what platform they will come out, I supposed to prevent absurd drama but it's something highlight
It's 2020 - Time to Hype New Releases or something
ikr i really enjoy the E3
Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin coming to PlayStation4, Nintendo Switch, and Windows PC this winter!
Considering it's from publisher XSEED, my guess is that it will be Steam, but we never know what the evil masterminds will do.
Having finished the Commander Lilith and the fight for sanctuary DLC I can say it is a good time, but a lot of the enjoyment requires you to have played Tales from the borderlands.
Is this enough pixels for ya. @Enki???
Or @yoshirules @yoel666 @coralinecastell, @YQMaoski @missiloon @KittiBear and @AcornAvenger
The whole first person business is still very daunting to me. So I am holding back on this one, as I am not purchasing the daily deal today because of that nature… Once I can get comfortable with FPS games I have, then I might think about branching out some more.
Same here, lol. It definitely takes some getting used to and even going up stairs still feels pretty weird, lol.
We should set up a group to play FPS sometime after meowski and I are done with The Division.
i check it ty for more backlog
and the 90's aesthetic is pretty as
Watched a bit of this streamed today before needing a nap. It's super awesome. Metroidvania fans should def take a look see.
Yaaaas, I backed this since the day I heard about it. Played a bit now to compare how it was during the backer beta, it's running a lot smoother in my potatobook. I can already see me wasting lots of hours farming and exploring just to get the 100%+ completion, plus all the replays to get the alternative endings and new characters!
As always, I have the lowest settings so I can actually play the game. It can probably look a lot better.
Really odd that they put up a demo for limited time before launch, what's the problem of having a demo for your game available at all times?
I wish more devs would make demos these days, all the memories of games I've played a demo and felt in love with in the past, the last I played with this effect was CrossCode and Hazelnut Bastile, I'll definitely grab the games at some point.
This is just so that they could get people to try it and pre-order. They are trying to boost pre-order numbers. It's what they call a "fair trade."
I've found there are a surprising number of demos available on steam, but the button is not exactly eye catching and off to the side a bit. Find myself every once in a while browsing a game wishing it had a demo and on 3rd page visit notice it did all along.
The demo is only available for 72 hours…
It's not? Play a tiny piece and get a "promise" for a complete game. Sorry, I'll wait until the game comes out to make sure there is a full game there.
Don't buy pre-release, because the Steam page might just get scrubbed into an advertisement for Epic-only game…
I am definitely not pre-ordering, I think the practice is terrible.
I'm certainly not pre-ordering either. But as far as pre-sale events go a "press beta", or in ancient terms "demo", is a fairly common thing. Making the demo available ahead of release seems like a pretty reasonable marketing strategy and I can't really find any fault in what they've chosen to do here. Obviously at no point is anyone obligated to pre-order even if they enjoyed the demo.
It would however seem a little silly to me to not keep the demo a permanent feature afterwards.
Absolutely, I agree this is a good move.
Right, it's just a more visibility kind of thing, especially here on Steam. They can factor that into people playing and friends seeing them playing, etc. More people adding to WL. All good things for the game, even if people do not pre-order.
I think it's more than a little silly. Afterall, back in the days of demo discs, the CD didn't self-destruct after 3 days.
But the point of them announcing it for a 3 day event is likely to boost viewer numbers in a short period. If people know about a permanent demo, they can just say, "Hey, I will play the demo during one of those eventual 50% sale events, and if I like it, I will buy the game." I think this is what they are trying to avoid. It's a "limited-time" offer to get more traction in the short term.
What I mean, as stated by @delenn13, is that it's limited time demo. Many other games have demos available for anyone to try, at any time, not just timed. Which is why is odd to me.
Just make the demo permanent, not limited. If people don't like the game after a purchase, they will refund anyway. Demo is just the same process but without involving payments/a deadline. On the other hand, people can pirate to try, which is also a nuisance and probably bad for them.
Dunno if Steam changed, but right now it's right there along with the buy button. I thought this was an Augmented Steam thing, but I've checked on the client and it's there too.
@Pylinaer By the way, tis a fine idea. Which FPS game did you have in mind?

Donor shortage in Belgium: Famous and hospitals join forces to change perceptions of sperm and egg-cell donation
Exceptional initiative: website gathers anonymous life advice from donors
Thursday, June 26, 2014 — Brussels, 24 June 2014 – Fertility centres around the country are facing an acute shortage of donors. Far from being new, however, the problem is growing: demand is increasing while the number of sperm and egg-cell donors has dropped dramatically. In 2013 there were 17% fewer donors than in 2011,[1] despite an overall increase in demand for artificial insemination and implantation. But are Belgians adequately informed about donation? And how are donors perceived in the public eye? Several Belgian fertility experts met today to analyse the causes of the donorshortage in Belgium and to introduce a new initiative aimed at both educating and inspiring the wider public: lifedonors.be
17% reduction in donors
Belgium has far too few sperm and egg-cell donors. Moreover, this situation is nothing new and is in fact getting worse. Despite an increase in demand, the number of candidate donors has dropped significantly in recent rimes. At the Centre for Reproductive Medicine at UZ Brussel, there were 54 candidate sperm donors in 2013, of which a mere 26 were actually retained. This figure represents a drop of 17% compared with 2011. This situation has compelled the overwhelming majority of Belgian fertility centres to call on the resources of foreign donor banks. The topic of sperm donation is still very much taboo in Belgium and the practice itself is widely perceived to be something rather juvenile. And yet, the complete opposite is true. Donors are people who, through their generosity, give couples the chance to create new life. As their anonymity is guaranteed, it is certainly not the case that donors are merely looking for recognition. Nor do they do it for financial reward.
A unique initiative designed to change public perception
To change perceptions and above all to improve the present-day image of sperm donors in the public eye, a handful of hospitals decided to join hands to launch a new initiative. The initiative - www.levensdonoren.be / www.donneursdevie.be – was launched by someone who was himself conceived with the help of a sperm donor, who worked in collaboration with the creative agency, Famous. The website brings together anonymous messages and life advice from donors to their potential biological offspring. The goal of the website is to give donors a human face. As such, the initiative aims not only to inform but also inspire members of the public to become donors themselves. Herman Tournaye, Director of the Centre for Reproductive Medicine (CRG) at UZ Brussel: "The Belgian government does not allow publicity about sperm or egg-cell donation. Naturally, this does not help us address the shortage of donors. When we were first contacted about this initiative, we saw this as a unique opportunity to inspire people, without undermining the anonymous character of the process. Our goal is to give donors a human face and improve the perception people have of donors in general."
These messages are available for anyone to read: from candidate donors to the children they help conceive, their parents and members of the public at large. As such, the donors who participate not only get to give life but also a sign of life.
Visit www.levensdonoren.be or www.donneursdevie.be for more info.
[1] Based on figures from UZ Brussel: 54 candidate-sperm donors in 2013 of which 26 were actually retained. A net reduction of 17% compared with 2011.

(yeah, Neu sounds completely different on Pop'n when on Normal mode)
Yeah Evans is definitely going to be on IIDX at some point since Yoshitaka is a jerk
It's from Adventure, and was in Adventure. TROOPERS is the third IIDX CS game since Milestone, I can't think of any reason why it would've been a likely candidate.
mirror force!!!!!
Maybe we'll actually get HOLY FUCK :over there: since it has an album coming out.
edit: i thought that was a real emoticon :(
Some terrible no-chin song.
Yeah, that would make more sense. :d
Yet another Hirofumi Sasaki song, probably.
Yeah, it was my bad.
Seriously though I was kind of hoping it would be on DJT but maybe someday
if we ever get another sasaki song it needs to be bobby sue & skinny jim for srs
Tamayura would be pretty nice, but knowing Konami they could just as easily hand us To The Ist to laugh maniacally at us.
Hey, that's a good song too. Maybe Departure will be the new SC long. That seems likely.
In this case, the italicized text is supposed to indicate sarcasm.
But not in that case.
oh fuck I pulled a woosh
no-chin sucks.
I cant think of a song of his that I do enjoy.
Step Into the New World is his best, and even then, it's not very good.
rock me now is his best followed by bio warrior. i think theyre both good, but i'm not too big a fan of his other stuff
im gonna have to agree heavily that rock me now is the best
and then biometric warrior and step into the new world are tied
5pm eternal tho is :\
LAST SCENE ftw. It should be in EMPRESS CS as LAST SCENE (BREAK CORE VERSION).
NO+CHIN is cool even if it is getting a little tiring with him appearing in every other IIDX / Guitar Freaks game as of late.

This firehouse was was the quarters of Hose Company 3 (West End) when the company was organized here on June 1, 1860.
The firehouse was located on Fruit Street, opposite Fruit Street Place, between North Grove Street and the present North Anderson Street. The location is just to the north of the present Parkman Street.
A Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) building covers the site of the firehouse.
Hose 3 moved to a new firehouse on June 1, 1869 at 16 North Grove Street, about 100 yards away.
The number 10 within the red circle indicates that Box 10 within Fire Alarm District 2 was located at this firehouse.
No further information is available on the disposition of the firehouse after the Fire Department moved out. At a later time MGH constructed a building on the site.

On a sizzling summer day, there's nothing better than taking a refreshing plunge in a swimming pool to cool off. However, that private oasis in your backyard can become a big safety hazard for children.
Despite continued efforts by authorities to keep recreation places safe for swimmers, incidents of drowning have been reported at beaches, homes, and public swimming pools across the UAE.
According to the World health Organization (WHO), "drowning is a leading cause of injury death for young children ages 1 to 4, and the fifth leading cause of unintentional injury death for people of all ages." For toddlers (children ages 1 to 4 years), swimming pools pose the greatest risk of submersion injury. In fact, it takes less than two inches of water for a young child to drown.
However, by following a few simple tips, you help to ensure your children are safe as they enjoy swimming during their summer holiday.
1- Build a Pool Fence
A recent report issued early this year by the Abu Dhabi Department of Health for the period between 2015 and 2016 on preventable child deaths, drowning, falls, and burns are among the main causes of death among children.
One of the most effective safety measures pool owners can take, is to build a fence around their pool. A fence will form a protective barrier to keep children out of the water when an adult is unavailable to supervise them.
There is always the potential for a child to move objects and climb over the fence. So the taller you can build your fence the better. However, pool fences should be at least 1.5 meters high. Additionally, any gates should open away from the pool and be self-closing, self-latching, and lockable.
2- Always Supervise Children
Actively supervise children whenever they are around the water, even if lifeguards are present. It is the lifeguards' job to ensure the safety of all pool or beach users, not to watch your children; that is your job Whether you are at the public pool, a beach, or at your private pool, always designate a responsible adult to supervise. Be sure to actively watch your children as they stay. Remain within arm's reach of young children and avoid distractions when supervising children around water.
3- Safely Store Chemicals
Pool chemicals help protect swimmers by killing germs in the water, but they can also lead to injury. When improperly mixed or handled without using protective gear, these chemicals can prove deadly.
As with any chemical, store pool chemicals in a safe and secure area to ensure they are not accidentally inhaled or ingested.
4- Be on the Lookout for Slip Hazards
Be sure the area surrounding your swimming pool is safe. Install slip-proof material and keep the area around the pool clutter free. Both children and adults can trip on objects and fall into the water, which can lead to injuries that impact their ability to swim. Make sure toys, floats, and cleaning equipment are safely stored away from the pool when they are not in use.
5- Establish Pool Safety Rules
Establish pool rules and enforce them! Educate your children and loved ones on what pool behavior is acceptable. Consider creating a list of "official" pool rules that includes basic instructions, such as:
- Walk, do not run
- Do not dive into shallow water
- Do not push or shove anyone into the pool
- Do not swim without adult supervision
- Do not dunk or hold anyone underwater
6- Teach Your Children How to Swim
Children need to learn to swim. A study conducted by America's National Institute of Health reveals that "participating in formal swimming lessons is associated with an 88% reduction in the risk of drowning in children aged 1 to 4 years." Additionally, if your child is not a strong swimmer, have them wear a protective life jacket while they swim.
7- Learn First Aid
Knowing first aid and CPR can save the life of someone who drowns. In the event of a medical emergency, first aid is the initial assistance provided to a child or individual while waiting for the medical professionals to arrive. In the worst of cases, first aid can be the difference between life and death.
At HSS, we offer First Aid training courses in accordance with the Health and Safety laws. Our first aid courses provide hands-on training to ensure all participants are competent in administering the treatment and care necessary to save lives in the event of a medical emergency.
We also offer lifeguard training courses. So if your apartment, community or public pool does not have a lifeguard, let us know and we will contact the facilities management and make sure they put trained lifeguards there for your protection this summer.
Contact a member of our team to learn more about our first aid training courses. Enjoy a safe and fun summer holiday!

HI ..I loved this post...the Red spotted purple is a beauty!ReplyDelete
I agree with you on the fussy plant thing ...I have had up to 80 tea roses in the past ,and living in the state of Maine they had to be cover at the base with a foot of dirty ever winter ..age makes you smarter on some things : }}
So as one dies of they are not replaced I am down to probaly 15 and they no longer get covered!!
I also have gone to those that are not fussy, survive and provide a purpose!! Well a few exceptions . : }
Your photos I very much enjoyed, nice to see what grows, flits, and crawls in you part of the country!!
Sorry so long : OO ..Grace
how neat! the anole has an attitude. love it!ReplyDelete
Looks like a spider all balled up in that fern? Very cool photo!ReplyDelete
All the photos are great-the color on that ironweed is gorgeous!
Love all your butterflies. It must be so cool to stand there with them all flitting around.
Have a great day today!
Native plants are the way to go, Babe. I began doing that here a few years ago, once I got "the list" from the Master Gardeners...been planting them ever since, watching them keep other critters alive and well...:)JPReplyDelete
Oh! That's called "Ironweed"! I saw coming out in the garden just yesterday! Lovely pictures again, as usual.ReplyDelete
Love that fern leaf, it looks like he's holding something in surprise, like "guess what's in my hand!"ReplyDelete
Yay for the hardy stuff!
Awe! I have a weakness for chameleons (properly called anoles, but I sold them in pet shops and first knew them as chameleons) and dragonflies. Love wildflowers! Go wildflowers!! You take the best photos. :):)ReplyDelete
Wow, wonderful series of butterfly and otheres thing that I have not seen. Thanks for the trip in the garden, forest. Have a nice week to you.ReplyDelete
I love your critters and flowers. It is a great idea to attract more wildlife with plants. Lovely photos and post.ReplyDelete
Funny how beautiful a flower named Ironweed can be! My Morning Glorys have finally taken off, and they are climbing way high as I hoped! I simply get lost in your stunning bugs as well...the butterflies are really dancing around here lately too, although maybe not as charming as yours...but they are butterflies!ReplyDelete
Cool captures. I've never seen a long tailed skipper. Very interesting.ReplyDelete
That's exactly the same attitude I have to most of my garden too Laura! By planting natives they seem to stand up to pest invasions so much better as well.ReplyDelete
Love the trade-off between having grubs and caterpillars chewing through everything, but then beautiful butterflies and moths appear!
Your little delicate blue eyed grass flowers are sweet.
Cheerio for now, really enjoyed your post :D)
great photos as always Laura ..they take me to your place for a moment ....magic .........xxReplyDelete
Absolutely loved all the photos..a lovely visit to your area (without airfare!).ReplyDelete
thanks everyone...for stopping by and leaving a note!! i really appreciate that!! :)ReplyDelete
I love your butterflies, they are unique.ReplyDelete
Such a cute post. I agree with you on planting natives species and keeping certain "weeds." Thanks for all your comments on my blog! Glad you found the following button! Oh, and I love anoles!ReplyDelete
LOVE all the different caterpillars & butterflies/moths you have down there! Native plants are definitely the way to go as they are best adapted to your local conditions, although the finely cultivated plants have their place, also. Those often do require more care, however. You are right on about the critters making use of (actually NEEDING) the native plants.)ReplyDelete
Great job on this post - as I've learned to expect!
I really enjoyed looking at your butterfly photos. I'm making an effort to learn my butterflies this summer. We have the buckeye butterfly and red spotted purple here as well--two butterflies I learned the names of in the past couple of weeks. I've never seen blue eyed grass growing wild in Michigan--it grew wild in upstate New York though. ONe of my favorite flowers.ReplyDelete
You are SO lucky to have all these wonderful beings surrounding your home. I agree with the idea of survival of the fittest, eventhough I also don't agree with it in life. But with regards to nature, what survives is simplest for your life and best for the ecology.ReplyDelete
Enjoy the flowers. Spring is around the corner for us too. Can't wait to see what this season holds for my garden!

The Hyperion born in the summer of 2010 by the hand of Fabio Almeida (guitarist).Through an ad on the Internet found Paulo Brandão (vocals / bass), soon realized they had the same ideas about the music they intended to do. After a long period found Filipe Costa (drums) was then found a solid basis for making the music they liked. Participated in the band also Ricardo Lima (keyboardist), but due to lack of availability of testing decided to move on just three. In December 2011 was received in the band Agostinho Soares, who made possible the expansion of horizons of the band so you get more intense in the produced songs. Later, in December 2012, was received at band Helder Soares to bassist place in order to improve the band's performance at all levels.In November 2013 released the album "Hyperion Rise", with 8 tracks and took part in collections in Portugal and also in Greece through some magazines dedicated to heavy metal.After a period in which the line up suggested a more classic heavy / melodic metal band split up the Augustine brothers and Helder Soares, moving forward as it had started with only 3 elements and looking for a more brutal aspect of heavy metal .. .
Portuguese quintet's debut CD is, as the bio puts it, traditional metal. There is no hiding the NWOBHM influence. This is sure to appeal to fans of standard German heavy metal too. The opener is not far removed from Running Wild, Freedom Call or the like. Clear Iron Maiden influences are all over the eight songs and at some points there is even a bit of Bruce Dickinson in Paulo Brandao. The start of Justice Of Faith is very early Metallica and is another case in point of the influence of NWOBHM. The title track, also bearing the name of the band, is also the Iron Maiden type song (and just about any Manowar song) with lyrics like "Rise Rise Hiperion Rise ... The power of metal in your eyes." Verses like "warriors of steel" and "metal is the future" make appearances in This Is Metal, a pseudo anthem that is a bit on the low-key side for it to be a full-blown crowd pleasing live song. Under Your Command takes on the battle theme making sure Manowar is mentioned here again. Towards the end of Under Your Command and the seventh track Let Me Rock the band do a bit of a folk 'metal' thing, perhaps these are newer songs and if so the future is not promising. Masters Of The Night ends this 37 minute release with a promise to fight all the demons' attack!

Helena Bankruptcy Lawyers & Attorneys
$850 Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
Our Helena bankruptcy lawyer is currently charging $850 for attorney fees in most Chapter 7 bankruptcy filings in Jefferson and Shelby Counties. If you would like the guidance and help of an experienced bankruptcy attorney, feel free to contact Attorney Steven A. Harris for a quick consultation over the phone. He is normally available to speak with you the same day you call and answer most questions over the phone.
Filing a Bankruptcy in Helena
Due to unforeseen circumstances and life altering events, it is common for many people to find themselves in difficult financial situations. This can be a result of anything from a divorce to high medical bills or any number of other things. The United States Bankruptcy Code is in place to give individuals like this an outlet for debt relief and, in many cases, ends up being the only option other than settling the debts with the creditors.
You must first decide whether filing bankruptcy makes sense for your particular situation. Should your debt consist of just a couple thousand dollars, then settling for that amount might make more sense than bankruptcy. You can do this by calling and offering them a lump sum amount of less than what you owe. In the case of a delinquent loan, a collection agency usually takes much less than the full amount to settle a debt.
For those who are struggling to catch up on their mortgage and have not been able to come to an alternative agreement with the mortgage company, then Chapter 13 bankruptcy might allow you to keep your home and avoid losing it in a foreclosure sale. For anyone who owes on a car loan or mortgage and needs to walk away from the property, you might be able to get rid of the entire indebtedness in a bankruptcy as well.
In a case such as this, you can file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy and get rid of all the debt on your car loan or mortgage and the creditor can only get what they can sell the property for. They cannot come after you for the difference in what they sell it for and what you owe, this amount is what gets discharged or eliminated in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy.
When most or all of your debts are credit cards, medical bills, old tax debts, or personal loans you can get rid of all of this unsecured debt in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If you cannot qualify for Chapter 7 then you can usually structure an affordable payment in a Chapter 13, if necessary.
Types of Bankruptcy to File in Shelby County, AL
For instances when settling debts outside of bankruptcy isn't a viable option, deciding which type of case to file is paramount. For those with a large amount of equity in their home or other property, filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Helena, Alabama might not be the best choice. If you and your spouse have too high a monthly household income, then you might not be able to qualify to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Shelby County, Alabama.
There are other considerations such as keeping a home that is in foreclosure. If you are delinquent on a mortgage or car loan, then Chapter 7 bankruptcy will usually not help keep the property, while a Chapter 13 may help you do so. Usually, if you do not have a lot of equity in your house, vehicles, or other property and your household income is low, you should be able to file Chapter 7 and get rid of your debts fairly quick and easy.
You should certainly consult with a local Helena, Alabaster bankruptcy lawyer when making the decision about which type of bankruptcy to file, if any. Our local bankruptcy attorney will be happy to speak to you today and go over your options over the phone or in person. We do not have an office in Helena, but we have one in downtown Alabaster on First Street North near the Municipal Annex. Give us a call today to speak with a local Helena bankruptcy attorney.

Our bankruptcy lawyer in Helena will be with you at this hearing.

Xbox One to launch November 22
Microsoft announced today that the Xbox One is coming on November 22.
Microsoft announced today that the Xbox One will launch on Friday, November 22, for $499. This puts it just a week after the launch of the PlayStation 4. Microsoft's Yusuf Mehdi points out that this is the same launch date as Xbox 360.
The announcement left details sparse, other than a list of the 13 available launch markets, which includes the US and much of Europe. The company also announced that additional Day One units are still available for pre-order, and confirmed yesterday's CPU increase.
Steve Watts posted a new article, Xbox One to launch November 22.
Microsoft announced today that the Xbox One is coming on November 22.
I wonder if they wanted to go earlier, but needed the extra two weeks to get more consoles off the line. But Sony is in a great position now, if they can meet demand and Microsoft can't then when the Xbox launches anyone who might have been waiting in line for an xbox and didn't get one might decided to just get a PS4 since there already there.
I was wondering this too, especially among the more "gamer" types. The Bombcast guys talking about people walking in to buy Eminem and CoD and just grabbing an XBO for the hell of it struck me as just ludicrous.
I would not ever deal with waiting in line and/or hoping I get something like a game system. I get it day one, shipped to my house for free...why the hell would you do anything else?
100% this ^^^^ this is the very first launch I will not be part of physically in a line or going to a store.
I Amazoned both the PS4 and Xbox1 it is pretty rad I don't have to stress or wake up early the consoles just come to my door 100% no worries.
Maybe there are some gamers that still enjoy the whole lien up waking up early taking the day off skipping school etc?
Still getting burned in a line(cough PS3) and not getting a new console really sucks when it happens. So being 100% secure and guaranteed a new console to me is the only way to go now a days with Amazon.

|Serving Size: 1 suppository
Servings per Container: 30
|Each Genistein 98% HPM SR (Sustained Release) contains the following ingredients:
370 mgs of 98% concentration of certified pharmaceutical grade 4'5,7-trihydroxyisoflavone (Genistein)
Homeopathic ingredient: Genista Tinctoria – 60X

Zetpil™ Suppository Advantage
Zetpil™ delivers nutrition via the rectum with the use of suppositories that have a unique, all- natural formulated base that has revolutionized not only this mode of delivery, but also the ability to obtain nutrients in a far more efficacious method. These suppositories are a result of combining natural ingredients with a non-irritating, rapid melting (5-6 minutes), readily absorbable (superior retention), antioxidant base material (free radical scavenging ability) and delivers the nutrients directly into the bloodstream in less than 20 minutes in a highly effective manner. Oral supplements are exposed to the hazards of stomach acid, digestive enzymes, food-related breakdown, first pass metabolism, and other bioavailability issues in the gastro-intestinal system.
Additionally, many raw materials simply have a very low bioavailability , and only achieve around 10% or less (commonly <1%) absorption rates, even if the patient is in optimal health condition. Compromised health, age, or certain conditions that result in an inability to take oral nutrients often preclude these patient populations from obtaining the necessary nutrition to stay healthy which often exacerbates chronic health issues.
Zetpil™ suppositories are a NOW solution to delivering the necessary nutrients to patients, on a daily basis, that is both easy, comfortable and cost effective. The safety and noticeable effectiveness of these products will far outweigh any initial hesitation you have regarding this mode of delivery.
What makes the Zetpil™ Genistein SR Different?
Zetpil™ Genistein HPM SR is unique because it represents the marriage of science and reality. By embracing the physical properties of genistein (low oral bioavailability and high enzymatic metabolism), the researchers and scientists at Zetpil™ conceived that an alternative delivery method may increase the levels of genistein one could achieve over a longer period of time. Based on research-proven concepts of absorption-enhancing natural compounds, excipients, therapeutically effective dosages and state-of-the-art production methods, Zetpil™ has formulated a genistein product which is cost-effective, safe, non-competitive, avoids enzymatic breakdown in the stomach and liver and is patient-friendly.
A Sustained Release (SR) mechanism has been used to help maintain the optimal dosage over a longer period of time. Also, a homeopathic dilution of 60X of Genista Tinctoria has been added to enhance the efficacy of this product and as such may be considered homeopathic in nature, as indicated by the "HPM" (HomeoPathic Medicine) after the product name.
What is Genistein?
Genistein (4′, 5, 7-trihydroxyisoflavone) is one of the major soy isoflavones and has been extensively studied over the past few decades for its health-promoting properties and its correlation to lower incidences of breast and prostate cancer in Asian countries where soy intake is high. Genistein has also been shown to be an anti-oxidant, chemopreventative and anti-inflammatory compound.
What is the problem with Oral Genistein?
Genistein has moderate absorption in the Gastrointestinal (GI) tract, but then suffers from extensive metabolism resulting in its low oral bioavailability overall. After oral administration, Genistein is mainly present as its metabolites (i.e. glucuronides and sulfates). Pharmacokinetic studies show that genistein has less than 15% absolute bioavailability in humans when administered orally. Taken together, these facts may explain the large variations of results seen in clinical trials with Genistein.
The Therapeutic Potential of Genistein
Genistein has been clinically studied to determine not only its health-promoting values, but across various disease states to identify its disease-fighting properties. Genistein has shown tremendous promise in cancer prevention, heart disease, inflammatory conditions, weight gain and bone health.
*Has not been evaluated by the FDA
Genistein has been shown to:
- improve blood pressure,*
- reduce thickness in the walls of major heart vessels like the aorta*, and
- lower cholesterol levels, including LDL levels which can cause the build-up of plaque and lead to heart disease (atherosclerosis)* .http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3181048/
"Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common complication affecting approximately 50% of diabetic patients within 15 years after onset of the disease" and there are no current curative treatments. Recent studies suggest that genistein can act as an "innovative anti-inflammatory agent and counteract retinal inflammation associated with diabetes".* http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2965567/
Genistein has been proven to be a novel cancer preventative, or chemopreventative, compound*. Genistein has shown beneficial effects on reducing serum PSA (prostate specific antigen). Genistein may also protect against the development of hormone-based cancers (ie: breast and prostate), as well as be synergistic with current cancer treatments (ie: chemotherapy).* http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4010305/
Scientific evidence has shown that genistein is able to both prevent age-related bone loss as well as restore bone density and quality, particularly in post-menopausal women. Genistein has shown better responses than alendronate (Fosamax), raloxifene and estradiol, without the side effects.*
Genistein may be able to:
- Improve bone mineral density (BMD)*,
- Prevent post-menopausal osteoporosis by minimizing mineral loss*, and
- Promote osteogenesis, or the formation of new bone.* http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3269672/
