15+ min ago (438+ words) Every holiday season arrives with its usual flood of limited editions and just-the-thing gift guides. But the best gifts don't come with gift receipts. They're the moments that slow time, bring people closer, and live on in memory, plus maybe inside a few picture frames. A clock may keep time, but South Seas keeps its own rhythm. Each evening, the sunset sets the pace, diffusing rose-gold light across the water as guests drift toward dinner'some to a lively family table, others to a quiet date night, all to something that feels like a gift. Adding to the "you have to see this" energy is the new Captiva Landing now opening December 22nd, over two and a half acre playground that includes a lazy river, six waterslides, breezy dining, Camp-Tiva, a kids' camp," a retro arcade, and every family's dream-day setup: cabanas....

33+ min ago (199+ words) December 1, 2025 / 12:25 PM EST / CBS Atlanta Georgia saw a double-digit number of deadly crashes during the busy Thanksgiving travel season, data from the Georgia Department of Public Safety reveals. According to the department, 11 people died in crashes across the state between the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and Sunday, including one double fatality in Newton County. Georgia State Patrol troopers responded to six of the deadly crashes, while local law enforcement agencies handled the remaining five."

39+ min ago (876+ words) If the Atlanta Braves are considering converting a reliever into the rotation, targeting Brad Keller this offseason has a lot of merit. Now that the Atlanta Braves have re-signed Raisel Iglesias to address their closer situation, the two main roster areas they need to address are shortstop and starting pitching depth. The shortstop market is a mess and the Braves may have to "settle" more than they would like there, but there are a plethora of rotation options including a few that would require a Reynaldo Lopez-like conversion. While more common than it used to be, converting pitchers from the bullpen to the rotation is still fairly rare. It requires a pitcher to have relatively clean mechanics, some amount of command of a diverse arsenal, and ideally experience starting so the team can be confident that they can hold up…...

58+ min ago (685+ words) Generally-speaking, I'm not a huge fan of reliever extensions and long-term contracts, unless you're one of the tippy-top relievers in the game. They're too volatile, and their lifespans in the game are too short. With two team options clicking on at $7.25 million for 2025 and 2026, the Atlanta Braves restructured the contract with Bummer to guarantee him $13 million over those years. Bummer gave up some potential earnings for some security. In doing so, he also chained himself to a team that had seemingly little interest in using him in higher leverage, as befits his production. The White Sox are a Bad(TM) organization, they apparently believed the 6.59 ERA in 2023, and they were essentially dumping the contract. Whoops. Basically every expected pitching metric clocked Bummer as a mid-to-upper 2.00 "true" ERA reliever. The 3.58 ERA is basically something I'm blaming on the defense (.386 BABIP). That's…...

1+ hour, 21+ min ago (328+ words) The Atlanta Braves struck early when they re-signed Raisel Iglesias and that decision looks very wise after Ryan Helsley's deal with the Orioles. In fact, in the wake of Ryan Helsley's deal with the Orioles, the Braves look particularly smart in striking as early and decisively as they did. There is risk in making deals early in the offseason. Even if you stick to strict rules for specific rules like avoiding long-term deals with relievers, there is a real chance that you either set the price too high for other bullpen needs or miss out on better values later in the offseason when guys get desperate. With the big name closers like Edwin Diaz and Robert Suarez still on the market, we'll know for sure whether or not the Braves did well with the Iglesias deal soon enough. However, the early…...

1+ hour, 25+ min ago (399+ words) December 1, 2025 / 11:33 AM EST / CBS Atlanta A Cherokee County man's attempt to rescue an injured raccoon that he found in the middle of the road ended with him in the hospital being treated for a possible rabies infection. Officials at the Chattahoochee Nature Center shared the story on Facebook over the weekend, saying it was an incident "that we feel needs to be addressed." According to the center, the man found the injured animal vocalizing in the road. Because he didn't have anything to contain the wild animal, he wrapped the raccoon in his coat and "held it against his chest" as he drove for more than an hour to the nature center, which is not licensed to rehabilitate mammals." At some point during the drive, officials say the raccoon got somewhat free and bit the man on his face and…...
