Sen. Bill Cassidy says millions of dollars from the federal infrastructure law recently flowed to the state and some of it will help the fight against coastal erosion.
The Louisiana Republican helped craft the bipartisan $1 trillion infrastructure package.
“Last week, Louisiana received a total of $13.7 million in funding from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act — $9.3 million going to coastal restoration and resiliency, $4.4 million to public and transportation infrastructure and flood control.”
And he said Louisiana will receive more federal funding under the law signed last year by President Joe Biden.
“Louisiana has received a whopping $10.1 billion from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and there’s more to come,” Cassidy said.

Hard drive makers are seeing solid growth in demand, but are facing tougher competition and eroding margins.
Market research firm iSuppli reports that hard drive shipments increased by 12.2% to more than 114 million units in the first quarter on a year-over-year basis. The shipments were down 4.7% from 118 million units in Q4, which was about in line with seasonal patterns of a strong fourth quarter and a following weak Q1.
iSuppli noted that the first quarter saw pricing pressure "due to intense competition and changing demand patterns". There are only six major hard drive manufacturers left (Seagate, WD, Hitachi GST, Samsung, Toshiba, Fujitsu, Excelstor) and these companies apparently are tied up in what the market research firm called a "vigorous competition" over mobile-PC storage.

Brooklyn is getting a new bike lane. The Landmarks Preservation Commission on Tuesday approved a plan from the city’s Parks Department to build a protected bike lane on Ocean Avenue around the perimeter of Prospect Park. But two LPC commissioners opposed the design because it calls for removing 57 healthy trees to make way for the new path, the Brooklyn Eagle reported.

Sunset Park residents on Tuesday urged the city’s Landmarks Preservation Committee to protect the neighborhood’s century-old buildings and designate four historic districts. During a packed public hearing, lifelong residents and new homeowners alike testified in favor of landmark designation for all four areas, citing the neighborhood’s cohesive and intact architecture, as well as its connection to generations of diverse immigrant communities.
More details here
The Landmarks Preservation Committee heard mixed testimonies yesterday during a public hearing over the designation of five buildings on West 28th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues known as Tin Pan Alley. The buildings in question—ranging from 47-55 West 28th Street—are notable for the significant concentration of sheet music publishers they housed during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. As music publishers continued to flock to the block, the nickname “Tin Pan Alley” was coined in 1903 to describe the sound of piano music that could be heard from every corner. Though most everyone in attendance agreed on the historical significance of these buildings, some pointed to the racist tunes that were also written there as a reason to block the landmark designation—with even the buildings’ owner, controversial developer Yair Levy, arguing against it.

An affordable housing developer on Tuesday presented plans to the Landmarks Preservation Commission for a new building that would cantilever over the Empire State Dairy building in East New York. HP Brooklyn Dairy Housing Development Fund Company, part of the nonprofit Housing Partnership Development Corporation, wants to construct a 14-story tower on top of the early 20th-century factory, located at 2840 Atlantic Avenue. Landmarked in 2017, the factory is notable for its architectural style and decorative tile murals. Dattner Architects created the designs for the proposed complex shown in the new renderings. The new construction would be a major change for the property, which was purchased by the developer for $16.75 million last year.

The Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) on Tuesday gave mixed reviews for a proposed new concession pavilion outside of the landmarked fireboat station at the Fulton Ferry Landing. The proposal, chosen last December by the Brooklyn Bridge Park (BBP), includes constructing an outdoor restaurant and bar that would connect to an adjacent utility shed and sit in front of the two-story fireboat station, previously home to the Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory. While Alex and Miles Pincus, the operators of the proposed space, designed the outdoor concession to be simple and airy, some LPC commissioners expressed concern over the structure possibly blocking views of Manhattan and the need to keep the space as open as possible.

Update 4/1/19: The New York State Court of Appeals on Thursday ruled against a group of preservationists who sued to stop developers from turning a historic clock tower into a penthouse. According to the judge, the LPC does not have the authority to give access to the building and the agency’s plan to make the 19th-century clock run electronically is reasonable.
Developers had big plans for the luxury condominiums they were creating at the block-long former site of the New York Life Insurance Company at 346 Broadway (also known as 108 Leonard Street) since purchasing it from the city in 2014. The new residential project would hold 140 units starting at $1.5 million, capped by a stunning penthouse that would be priced at over $20 million. The one snag in this golden opportunity: The building’s iconic Clock Tower–sometimes called New York’s ‘Big Ben,’ which sits atop the building and was designated an interior landmark in 1987. The clock must be wound by hand, a process which requires access through, as the New York Times reports, the future penthouse. A case against the developers’ plan and a subsequent appeal were both won by the opponents, saying the LPC couldn’t unwind the clock’s landmark status–but an appeal in the state’s highest court, the Court of Appeals, is still pending.

The Landmarks Preservation Commission voted today to calendar the Bay Ridge Parkway Doctors’ Row Historic District in the first formal step toward designation. The proposed district is comprised of 54 architecturally consistent row houses along Bay Ridge Parkway between 4th and 5th Avenues in Brooklyn’s Bay Ridge neighborhood. The row of limestone-fronted houses–referred to as Doctors’ Row based on both its historic and current residential demographics–is a distinguished example of the neighborhood’s growth from a suburban resort community to an urban neighborhood ahead of the 4th Avenue Subway line in the early 20th century.
More about the neighborhood, this way
The Landmarks Preservation Commission voted on Tuesday in favor of calendaring five buildings on West 28th Street in Manhattan’s “Tin Pan Alley,” in the neighborhood now called Nomad. The buildings at 47-55 West 28th Street were an integral part of the area known for having New York City’s most significant concentration of sheet music publishers at the turn of the 20th century, and as the birthplace of iconic American songs like “God Bless America.” It’s also where popular music icons like Irving Berlin and George Gershwin wrote songs. Calendaring is the first formal step in the historic status designation process.
Sounds like a good idea

The city’s Landmarks Preservation Commission on Tuesday approved the New York Public Library’s plan to add a new public entrance and plaza to its Stephen A. Schwarzman Building in Midtown. The changes fall under the library’s larger master renovation plan, a $317 million project first unveiled in 2017. The LPC approved the changes to the exterior of the building–subject to the city’s landmark rules–after design modifications suggested at a presentation in February were made by the library, Curbed NY reported.

In a heated second hearing before the Landmarks Preservation Commission, the owner of the iconic Strand Bookstore, Nancy Bass Wyden, continued her fight to keep the famed bookseller’s building from being designated a city landmark along with seven buildings on Broadway between East 12th and 14th Streets. Instead, Wyden is offering to put in place a historic preservation easement on the storefront, Gothamist reports. The easement would be the result of an agreement between the property’s owner and a nonprofit group that would serve as a steward for the building’s preservation, ensuring that, in this case the building’s facade, would be properly preserved. At a previous LPC hearing The Strand’s owner voiced strong concerns that a historic designation would place crippling restrictions on the scrappy business and potentially threaten its future.

Chineme Okafor in Abuja
Oil firm, Chevron Nigeria Limited (CNL) has said that it now supplies up to 40 per cent of the domestic gas used in Nigeria, and on the back of that, has reduced gas flaring at its operations in the Niger Delta by 90 per cent from 2008 to 2017.
The company explained in a statement to THISDAY in Abuja, that its status as one of the largest suppliers of gas for domestic in Nigeria, was recently confirmed by the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR).
It explained the development of Nigeria’s vast gas resources had been one of the major policy thrusts of successive governments in the country, adding that while the country ranked ninth in world’s gas proven reserves, its National Gas Master Plan had been able to focus attention on reducing routine gas flaring, increase domestic gas supply and utilisation.
According to the company, as operator of the joint venture between it and the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), it currently ranked high among some corporate bodies that play leading role in gas development in the country.
“In February 2018, at the Nigerian International Petroleum Summit (NIPS) in Abuja, Chevron received an award as the greatest contributor of domestic gas in Nigeria. At the summit, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, commended CNL’s efforts in supporting the federal government’s gas development objectives,” said the statement.
It equally quoted its Managing Director, Mr. Jeff Ewing, to have explained that CNL had contributed immensely to the Nigerian government’s gas master plan through the various gas projects it has embarked on and that the company was the highest contributor of high quality gas to the domestic market in Nigeria.
“According to the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR), CNL supplies about 40 per cent of Nigeria’s domestic gas consumption and has been the highest supplier of high quality domestic gas in Nigeria since 2015,” the statement noted.
Further, it had Ewing, stating that through investments in gathering and processing of associated gas, routine flaring has been reduced by over 90 per cent from 2008 to 2017 in CNL’s operations.
Ewing explained thus, “Amidst the growing global trend in gas production and utilisation, the expectations for the gas sector in Nigeria remain high and provide opportunities for investment in the sector.”
He listed the opportunities to include, transitioning from an oil based economy to a more integrated oil and gas economy and end routine gas flaring; deliberate exploration for non-associated gas to support the Nigeria Gas Master Plan with a focus on high liquid yield non-associated gas resources to optimise the gas development project economics; the growth of new industries made possible from the abundant resources and competitively priced gas supply.
Ewing further explained that CNL’s gas story began with the implementation of different phases of the Escravos Gas Project (EGP), with four phases of development over the years.
He stated that the EGP gas gathering, and processing facilities placed CNL as one of the pioneers in creating a practical and economic solution for gas flaring in the Nigerian oil and gas industry.
“The gas gathering, and processing projects involved stripping liquids from rich gas and creating a new revenue stream for the nation from the sale of the liquids,” he stated.
According to him, the gas strategy adopted by CNL will end routine gas flaring and build a profitable gas business through a portfolio of domestic, regional and export supply projects that fulfil the Domestic Gas Supply Obligation (DSO) of its joint venture.
The strategy, he said would include ending routine gas flaring; boosting domestic supply; diversifying and commercialising gas resources through gas-based industries such as its Escravos Gas-to-Liquid (EGTL) plant.
“Chevron has a long commitment to Nigeria. The company has been making significant investments in the country for over 50 years and it expects to do so for many more years to come. With the right policies, the enormous potential of Nigeria’s oil and gas sector can yield even greater benefits,” added Ewing.

The cellulose templating method allows for catalysts with high phase purity, even at the relatively low calcination temperatures. Among the versatile compositions of perovskites based on the SrCoOx system, straightforward modifications could be performed to optimize the catalytic performance in the oxidation of CH4. Substitutions in both the A and B positions in the ABO3 lattice can remarkably affect the catalytic activity. Compared to other preparation methods, the cellulose templating method is a rapid process and the catalytic performances obtained with SrCoOx and LaCoOx are at least as good as with materials prepared by conventional methods.

Not only that America’s online gamblers have a difficult time seeking out an online casino licenced in the US because of the conundrum that surrounds the legality of online gambling, they are also at a disadvantage because players who seek out legal assistance are surprised to find that they have no proper legal recourse in case of mistreatment by an unscrupulous online casino. Gamblers’ consumer protection issues need addressing, and while reputable online casinos are known to self-regulate and have consumer protection guidelines in place, from a pure legislative standpoint, online gamblers’ consumer protection laws are non-existent.
UIGEA of 2006
With regulators and legislators still debating over the interpretation of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006, which polices transactions between US players and online gambling sites, and the Federal Wire Act, which doesn’t, in plain language, prohibit internet gambling on a game of chance, a regulatory framework for online gambling would be welcomed both by online casinos and by gamblers. A law of such nature would protect consumers’ rights and would safeguard the integrity of financial transaction in the online gambling sphere.
Even though some gamblers enjoy the unregulated nature of the internet gambling environment and the fact that they aren’t held accountable for where and how much they win or gamble, when faced with unfair treatment, they do recognise the need for the legalisation of online gambling that would also open the way for consumer protection regulations.
Internet Gambling Regulation, Consumer Protection, and Enforcement Act
A 2009 bill, the Internet Gambling Regulation, Consumer Protection, and Enforcement Act, proposed by Representative Barney Frank (D-MA) aimed to finally bring a much anticipated shift in the state of online gambling. The bill was proposed on the grounds that despite existing regulations, more and more USA citizens engage in online gambling activities; that online gambling is offered by many operators based in different countries and subject to different licencing regulations, and there is no oversight over the activities of these in their relation to US players; that in almost all states in the US some form of gambling or other is permitted; that in the absence of Federal licencing regulations which would ensure that the games are fair and which would enforce limitations imposed by States and Indian tribes, underage players and other vulnerable categories have no legal protection.
Rep. Barney Frank has proposed many variations of on this bill, unfortunately the bill was not adopted, however, it did bring up the conversation on the legalisation of online gambling, which resulted in several States passing laws to expressly legalise certain forms of gambling (e.g. New Jersey, Nevada, Delaware).
On state level, there are regulations in the works for legalising online gambling activities. States such as California and Pennsylvania may follow suit this year, however, a federal bill is yet to emerge on this issue, even though there is a stringent need for a legalisation and oversight of online gambling activities.
What future may bring in gambling for consumer protection
Until then, USA players should bear in mind that the state of current regulations have no teeth in imposing or enforcing any consumer protection demands set forth by players. Therefore, until legislators recognise the need for such regulations, the safest bet for USA gamblers is to exercise some degree of foresight in choosing a reputable online casino.


With so much going on around town. Catch up on what you may have missed.
It’s Friday, January 11. Snow (flurries) in the forecast, Eagles’ chances against the Saints and is the Borough ever going to get these Christmas trees? Here is what people are talking about this week.
The missing 8th grader – has been found. Fugett Middle School eighth grader Colin Vaughn was reported missing Thursday night triggering police, news, and social media alerts across the region. Fortunately the teen has been located. West Goshen Police reported the boy found around 8:30 this morning.
When exactly is the Christmas tree collection? The Borough’s designated two week window for collecting fresh cut evergreen’s is nearing its end, yet, numerous trees continue to line the streets and alleyways. Do not worry, your tree will be collected. I spoke to a public works official this morning and he reported collection efforts are still underway. “We had a truck go down this week,” he said. Putting the department a few days behind.
Update: Trees in the Southwest quadrant near Everhart Park have now been picked up.
Parking (always). Changes to the parking code may be underway reports the Daily Local. The Parking Commission has recommended lifting the moratorium that limited new permitted areas. The recommendation came after residents of the 200 block of North Franklin Street asked to be considered for permitting. No word yet on any other areas under consideration. The Committee also discuss limiting residential parking from 5 p.m. to 8 a.m. to permit holders. Feel strongly about these issues? – the Parking Committee meets the second Tuesday of the month.
The dogs of West Chester: Now add 16 more to the list. Patch is reporting 16 rescued German Shepherds have been claimed by the Brandywine Valley SPCA after being removed from “deplorable” conditions in Georgia. In total 165 dogs were rescued from the puppy mill.
Schools. Several education updates coming out this week, an anonymous tip line has been set up the West Chester Area School District to allow “students, parents, and community member to report suspicious or concerning behavior.” This is in conjunction with a new state law. The reporting system goes live January 14. A information session on the tip line will be held January 23 at 6:30 p.m. via live stream or in person at the Spellman Building.
New proposed state legislation reports to improve pipeline safety especially near schools. The bill has bipartisan support and is sponsored by local State Senators Tom Killion and Andy Dinniman. In a write up in the West Chester Patch, Killion calls the effort, “long overdue.”
Praise out for all area middle schools as they ranked among the top 100 in the state for Eighth grade PSSAs. Way to go, guys!
The warnings. Watch out for your wallets and phones. A vehicle break-in at the Audubon Manor apartments on Everhart Street and a theft at Chester County Hospital were reported by local police outlets this week. Fortunately, the suspect in the hospital theft has been identified. The search for the man behind the vehicle break-in continues.
Investigation is underway into a New Year’s Eve altercation at Kildare’s. Anyone with info on the fight that left two men celebrating the new year in the hospital is asked to contact West Chester Police.
In happier policing news, West Chester wishes a well-earned retirement one of its finest. Officer Reinaldo Melendez ended his 28 year career on Wednesday with a salute from his fellow officers the Daily Local reports. Thank you, sir, for your service.
Thank you for another fun week West Chester. I’ll be back next Friday. In the meantime, you can find last week’s round up here and some great local feature writing here. And if you are the kind of person that has to be the first one to know – sign up to get our latest posts.

The Good Friday Appeal will open its doors to the biggest ever Teddy Bear Hospital at Etihad Stadium this Easter – the home of the Kids Big Day Out.
Children from across Victoria are being encouraged to bring their teddies or soft toys to Etihad Stadium on Good Friday for a medical check-up – all for a good cause.
More than 700 medical students, biomedical students, junior Doctors and nurses have volunteered for “Hospital Duty” on the day at the Teddy Bear Hospital, as part of the Kids Big Day Out activities,
The Teddy Bear Hospital is a Royal Children’s Hospital and Melbourne University program that aims to help familiarise children with the medical consultation process and provide health promotion in a fun and interactive manner.
The $5 cost of each mock-medical check-up with children who bring their teddy or soft toy will be donated to the Good Friday Appeal.
This event hopes to see 3000 children and their teddies on the day and in order to cater for the massive demand some 700 medical students, bio-medical students and junior doctors and nurses have volunteered to take part.
Our medical volunteers will role-play as Teddy Bear Doctors and interact with the children, taking them through the entire process of a medical consultation.
Teddy Bear Hospital Director, Professor Paul Monagle from the Paediatrics Research Unit at The Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne says the aim of the program is to reduce the fear of medical consultations by empowering children to participate in a simulated medical consultation as the teddy’s ‘carer’.
“This is a rare opportunity, enabling medical students to apply their knowledge in a more practical setting, as well as the invaluable experience of working alongside the doctors and healthcare professionals of The Royal Children’s Hospital,” says Professor Monagle.
The Teddy Bear Hospital will bring a new and fun element to all the wonderful fundraising activities at the Kids Big Day Out,” says Appeal Director, Christine Unsworth.
“We are very grateful to Professor Monagle and all the trainee and junior doctors and nurses who have volunteered to be part of the event.”
Families will be able to visit the Teddy Bear Hospital via Gate 6 on the Concourse at Etihad Stadium between 10.00 am and 4.0pm. Booking times will be taken so that children can continue to enjoy the Kids Big Day Out activities and to ensure that as many appointments as possible can be taken.
The entrance to the Hospital will feature a 1926 French ambulance once used by the NSW Ambulance Service.

Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Charles Simic, who learned English as a teenage immigrant, will be the U.S. poet laureate, the Library of Congress announced Thursday.
Simic, who lives in Strafford, will replace another New Hampshire poet, Donald Hall of Wilmot, announced the poet laureate program, which promotes poetry across the nation.
"I'm overwhelmed," he said.
Simic taught at the University of New Hampshire for 34 years before moving to emeritus status. He won the Pulitzer Prize in poetry in 1990 for his book of prose poems, "The World Doesn't End." He also is an essayist, translator, editor and professor emeritus of creative writing and literature.
Simic was born in Yugoslavia in 1938, and his childhood was disrupted by World War II. He moved to Paris with his mother when he was 15 and joined his father in New York a year later.
Simic graduated from the same Oak Park high school as Ernest Hemingway, where he started writing poetry to attract girls, he said.

“I whole-heartedly agree!”
After a minute or two, the two by the flowers chose to simply ignore the people by the bushes.
“Natsuki…” Shizuru’s voice drawled out in a sensuous tone as she looked up to her promised future wife.
The lone wolf on campus looked out over the garden hidden away in the thick tree-life surrounding the campus. Her stern expression seemed to be set in stone; her arms folded under her chest. The aura she admitted was one that seemed to demand respect. Her sharp, green eyes gave a side-ways glance to the brunette sitting on the grass next to her. “What’re you doing here?” She asked bluntly, coldly. They hadn’t been out here long.
“Natsuki…” The first year drew out again in the same tone of voice. She slowly reached out her hand and grasped Kuga’s skirt, tugging on it lightly like a child trying to get a parent’s attention. “Come sit with me, Natsuki.”
“I’ll get grass stains on my uniform,” Came the curt response.
“Then I’ll just have to come up to Natsuki,” The albino’s voice was tied with mischief. The first year slowly lifted her body, brushing of the grass from her skirt after she got up. She walked behind the second-year student and wrapped her arms around the blunette’s waist. She pressed her body close, making sure the older girl felt every inch of her body. The small smirk on Fujino’s face grew a little as she listened to Kuga’s breath hitching.
Kuga frowned, “Let go.” She commanded tersely. Her glare was directed ahead of them both; she seemed to be willing the blush off her face.
“No.” A giggle, followed by two arms tightening around Natsuki’s waist. Shizuru was inwardly elated that she had grown taller than her childhood friend.
Emerald eyes shifted back to the head resting on her left shoulder, “Haven’t you been taught to listen to upperclassmen?”
“Yes I have, Natsuki-sempai,” Shizuru closed her eyes, making no move to give up the comfortable position she was in. However, she did move her cheek so it pressed against Natsuki’s. Her smile grew pleasant as she sighed contently, feeling her companion’s face burn up, “Ara, Natsuki seems to enjoy the intimacy more than she projects.”
“Anyone would be with someone this close,” Natsuki’s gruff voice involuntarily grew quieter as she looked away. She tried not to show how uncomfortable she was by keeping her ‘cool’ attitude.
“Bad Natsuki. You should be more truthful. Here, I’ll help,” Shizuru lifted one of her arms to Kuga’s face and gently pushed the blunette’s head so it faced the left. Shizuru’s lips connected with Natsuki for a chaste kiss.
Green eyes shot open.
Once the stunned Natsuki got a hold of herself she broke free of Fujino’s grasp, stopped a good yard or two away. She brought her left hand to her face, cupping her mouth while her right arm wrapped across her torso, as if protecting it. Kuga sent the sharpest glare she could at the brunette, even though the crimson deep, full-face blush negated the effects. She tried desperately to regain her collected demeanor.
Shizuru could only chuckle mirthfully at the attempted scowl. Her hands were linked behind her back.
“W-WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!” A nearby flock of birds scattered.
“That’s called a kiss, Natsuki,” Shizuru replied cheekily. Ever the level-headed one.
“You know what I mean!” Natsuki hadn’t shown this much emotion in a long time, especially emotions directed at any one person.
“Ara, I figured I’d be kissing you plenty once we were married, so why not start early?” Another tongue-in-cheek reply.
Natsuki blinked at the answer before forcing herself to calm down considerably. She brought her hands down to her side when her blush had almost fully disappeared. Kuga looked up at the taller, first year student evenly, looking straight into red eyes, “Is that the reason you followed me here? Because of that promise I made?”
Natsuki frowned, her gaze lowering to the ground. She clenched her fist, wishing that there was some way she could change the past. Being with her would only hurt Shizuru in the end. She was sure of it.
Teary, red eyes looked up at the person who stopped right in front of her, “My daddy wants me to marry somebody I don’t want to.” She followed the news up with a few sniffles and hics.
The six year old Natsuki looked down at the five year old Shizuru who was crying in the middle of a grassy field. “Uh…” She desperately looked around, then spotted the flower in her hand. “Ah!” She grinned, causing the brunette to tilt her head curiously. Kuga puffed out her chest, a broad and cocky beam on her face, “Then I’ll marry you instead!” She announced giving the small flower to the previously crying girl.
Natsuki smiled as Shizuru’s mood seemed to lighten up. There! She thought, I’ve done my job!
How stupid of me… Natsuki frown, scolding herself. She looked back up at the first year with determination in her eyes. “You should forget that promise was ever made.”
Almost as soon as the words exited Natsuki’s mouth, Shizuru had responded with an equally determined, “No.”
Shizuru’s expression grew nostalgic, “This promise is one of the only things keeping me going, Natsuki. When things get rough, I just think back to that time and tell myself that I have to go on in order to see that promised fulfilled.”
Natsuki outwardly flinched, knowing exactly what Shizuru was talking about. Her father…
“B-but how do you know that being with me won’t just make your life worse?” Natsuki blurted out, fighting a loosing battle. How many times had she fought words with Shizuru and inevitably lost?
An understanding and calm smile spread across Fujino’s face, “Silly Natsuki, I just do.”
Natsuki frowned at the response. She was silent for a bit before shaking her head; she started to walk away, back toward the main school yard. She came to a halt about twenty feet away from the brunette and without turning her head back: “… You coming, Shizuru?”
“Hai!” The albino chirped, jogging lightly before she caught up to the blunette’s right side, clasping the second year’s hand in her own.
“Don’t grab my hand,” The Ice Princess quipped, pulling her hand free of Shizuru’s grasp and stuffing both her hands into her pockets.
“That’s okay,” Shizuru said, her smile never faltering. “I’ll wait for Natsuki to warm up to me.”

Usually when women get pregnant, all you can see is their glowing and fresh skin, the thickness and brightness of their hair and the general happy atmosphere that is created by their own happiness. It is true that a woman looks most beautiful when she is pregnant but with all the good things, it could also result into the worst thing for a woman in general; acne.
Why do pregnant women get acne?
There have been several cases of women who have never had a pimple in their life and suddenly, after a few weeks or more with being pregnant, their face is full of dark spots and marks. With all the hormonal changes taking place in the body, many women encounter getting zits and pimples which could turn into a case of acne pretty quickly. In some couples, it is the first sign of pregnancy! Even before food sickness!
How to deal with acne in pregnancy?
A safe skin care plan is really important for women who are pregnant. Because then, it is not only their well being they have to think about but also another little human’s that resides in their stomach. They have to eat right, sleep right and make sure their baby is getting the right nutrients and diet. So taking medicines just for acne is out of the question. They wouldn’t know how it would affect the baby or how it could affect them during pregnancy. Even after it, a woman has to breast feed her child so she is very careful about what supplements she is taking. However, there is extreme evidence to support that natural acne kits are quite safe and do not in any way harm the baby. In some areas, there are even natural acne kits that are specifically made for pregnant women! Since it is all natural and organic, it does not harm the baby in any way or the pregnant woman. In fact, even after giving birth, it does not alter anything except for making the acne condition better or making the acne completely disappear.
Why are natural acne kits better for a pregnant woman?
Just because a woman is pregnant does not mean she lets go taking care of her own skin and only remain concerned about what she is eating. Therefore, it is best to use natural acne kits because they do not contain any chemicals or solutions that would harm or alter the human body’s working. Even normal lotions have to be used with care during pregnancy because one is never really sure what is really being absorbed through the skin barrier and whether it would enter the blood stream. Because then that would mean the baby is also getting some lotion! So it is best to adhere to the natural method with the natural acne kits. They are easily available online and even with minimal research, you can do no wrong by getting one from a well known company. It is a win-win situation. The woman wouldn’t even have to get out of bed!
Don’t get scared, get prepared
For those who have never seen a pimple in their life, they might just freak out with the acne condition they suffer through just because of pregnancy. It is best to acknowledge first that it might happen instead of wondering what happened to their beautiful skin. As mentioned in the start, with all the hormonal changes, your body undergoes changes that would seem like a lot compared to puberty changes. However, it is best to accept it and then prepare for it. Not saying you should have natural acne kits or herbal supplements ready in your house! But it is best to discuss with friends and be aware of remedies that could remove the condition. Still, usually people who get acne because of pregnancy generally don’t have it afterwards. So not treating it would also be fine but it is better to be prepared and do something about it before it takes a more permanent charge.
Pregnant women should enjoy their pregnancy to the best of their abilities and those who are faced with acne problems shouldn’t lose face. There is treatment for it, a natural one that might even be good for the baby!
When it comes to exploring the question of how to get rid of acne, the author has some evidence-based options that can really and quickly help you get rid of pimples at an affordable cost and without any side effects.

Scarlet fever, sometimes called scarlatina, is a disease caused by a bacteria called group A Streptococcus or “group a strep”, the same bacteria that causes strep throat. Scarlet fever is a rash that sometimes occurs in people that have strep throat. People with scarlet fevers typically also have a high fever and a strawberry-like appearance of the tongue. The rash of scarlet fever is usually seen in children under the age of 18. Symptoms usually develop about 1 to 7 days (incubation period) after being exposed to someone with strep throat or scarlet fever.
The most common symptoms of are:
Scarlet fever begins with a rash that shows up as tiny red bumps. It most often begins on the chest and stomach but can then spread all over the body. It looks like a sunburn and feels like a rough piece of sandpaper. As the tiime goes by, it become redder in the creases of the elbows, arm pits, and groin areas. The rash lasts about 2-7 days. After the rash is gone, the skin on the tips of the fingers and toes begins to peel.
Scarlet fever are some other common signs:
- A flush face with a pale area around the lips.
- A red and sore throat that can have white or yellow patches.
- A fever of 101 degrees Fahrenheit (38.3 degrees Celsius) or higher.
- Swollen glands in the neck; and
- A whitish coating can appear on the surface of the tongue. The tongue itself looks like a strawberry because the normal bumps on the tongue look bigger.
Whenever a person infected with scarlet fever sneezes or coughs, the strep microbes become airborne and infect others other persons by inhaling the same. The strep bacteria can be also present on those things that an infected person happens to touch like a door-knob or any drinking glass. Scarlet fever bacteria might contaminate food too; particularly milk, although this type of transmission is not very common.
Strep microbes causing fever can also spread from an individual to another from fluids present in the nose and mouth of a patient. The type of Streptococcal bacteria that attacks one’s throat resulting in scarlet fever is termed GABS or group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus. Unless treated in time, a person affected by scarlet fever can remain contagious for some weeks following the passing of the disease.
If rash is present on the body and the physician feels that it is scarlet fever, he/she will take a sample throat culture for laboratory tests. If found positive, the doctor will recommend antibiotic treatment for around ten days. This treatment improves the patient’s condition within 12 to 24 hours. The recovery takes place in 4 to 5 days. It might take some weeks to cure the tonsils and the swollen glands and bring them back to normal. It is vital that the patient completes the whole course of the prescribed antibiotics. Actually, antibiotics are used to destroy the bacteria that infect the throat as it is crucial in order to avert rheumatic fever, a severe complication of scarlet fever.


As he continues his fast rise to the top, David Oscar once again shows why he will be a force to be reckoned within the Reggae industry as he drops another Reggae track titled “Rata Love” with its video.
Unlike his previous single, “Get There One Day” featuring Afriyie Wutah, where he tackled the issue of the ghetto hustler, “Rasta Love” is what many would consider a typical reggae love song.
What makes it unique however, is David’s ability to deliver in a way that captivates listeners. Even music lovers who are not necessarily into the Reggae genre would enjoy this one.
“Rasta Love” was produced by KiloBeatz whiles the video production credit goes to Mr. Steve Gyamfi of RedHousePhilmz.

The charity believes it is important for young people with ADHD to be able express themselves and for the condition to not be stigmatised.
The mass dance took place at Liverpool One, later on Church Street before arriving at Lime Street. It was performed by Air Beats and supported by Liverpool City Council and MD Productions.

“Liverpool City Council gave us an Arts and Culture Grant of £5000 and we recruited local artists MD Productions to do the choreography and rehearsals and Yaw at Urbeatz to put the music together.
The dancing was televised on BBC regional news and Tony believes the event was successful in raising awareness.
Comic Relief, one of four main funders for the charity, were impressed by the performance which included many dancers who have the disorder.
Steph Maguire from Comic Relief told JMU Journalism: “I was lucky enough to see the performances and was very impressed by the choreography and how hard the young people at the ADHD Foundation had obviously worked.
“It was a great way to raise awareness of something which is so often invisible and show the difference that Comic Relief funding is making to people’s lives across Merseyside.”

The weather always has an impact on animals. it creates a swing in their behavior and activity. As a result of this, their food habits also change. For this reason, you have to understand them in different seasons. As a hunter, you must plant food plots following the seasonal months and spring is important among all the other times of the year. It is the time when the deer seek essential nutrients for them. If you can provide that they’ll be attracted to your land.
What to Plant for Deer in The Spring? Well, to know this you must be aware that each plant has its own features including the levels of minerals, protein, fiber, etc. so for better understanding you should scan through some briefs to strengthen your fundamentals and achieve the desired result for a food plant in spring for the deer.
- Key Takeaways
- Best Plants for Deer in the Spring
- 3 Additional Plants for Deer in the Spring
- 12 Tips to Plant for The Deer in the Spring
- Final Thoughts
- Usually, deer in spring are attracted to minerals and high-protein foods.
- Apart from popular options there are other plants along with them that might attract deer more.
- It’s better to follow the tips for planting in the spring for deer to make sure that deer eat them.
In the spring, deer’s activity changes, which is why planting food plots in the spring is so essential to consider. In the early morning hours and late evening hours, deer walk around to discover food. They wait for this season throughout the year to eat more leaves, twigs, and other organic plants. For attracting and maintaining deer populations, there are some of the best plants to plant in the spring.
You should consider your specific goals and needs when selecting the plants for your deer food plot, as each has its own advantages and disadvantages. It is possible to attract and sustain healthy deer populations in your area by doing some research and selecting the right plants for your situation
There is a good reason why clover is a popular choice for deer food plots. One of the main reasons is they are compatible with the majority of soil and they are easy to grow, even budget-friendly. There are various types of clovers: white clover, red clover, and Ladino clover which are all suitable for planting in the spring.
Choosing the right type of clover depends on your specific needs, so it’s important to do your research to find out their pros and cons. Water, protein, energy, and minerals are mostly needed for deer in the spring and one of the main advantages of planting clover for deer is that it is highly nutritious and provides a good source of protein and minerals. It grows throughout the year regardless of the season. The ease of planting and maintaining clover makes it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced food plotters.
Alfalfa is another popular choice for deer food plots after clover. With a high digestible protein, mineral, and vitamin content, alfalfa hay is highly delicious and nutritious. Food plots made from alfalfa seeds are excellent. In spite of the fact that alfalfa requires a little more maintenance than other food plots, it is an excellent draw for deer. Like clover, there are several different varieties of alfalfa to choose from, however, deer mostly prefer Alfa-Rack Plus. A major benefit of planting alfalfa for deer is its high protein content, which is important for antler growth and overall health.
Adding chicory to a spring food plot is a great way to attract deer. Deer will continue to prefer chicory food plots as long as there is enough moisture for them to persist. Chicory requires little maintenance. Chicory grows well in dry situations, so it is a great choice for deer feeding. Additionally, it contains minerals and vitamins, which can help keep deer healthy and strong. Deer can also find chicory to be a valuable source of food during the spring, summer, and fall thanks to its long growing season.
There are several other options that can be just as effective as clover, alfalfa, and chicory for your spring deer food plot plant. If you want to plant a food plot, here are three additional plants you might want to consider:
Soybeans are a great option to consider if you’re looking to attract and sustain a healthy deer population in your area. Soybeans contain a high protein around 40%, and 20% fat which is comparatively lower in carbohydrates than corn. These high-quality sources of energy are just what bucks need to help them recover after an intense breeding season and will help them survive the winter months. There are a variety of soil types and conditions in which soybeans can be planted for deer. High tolerance for drought also allows them to grow during dry spells. In order to avoid damage to your soybeans, you should keep in mind that soybeans are prone to browsing and overgrazing.
Deer herds require maximum nutrition during the critical growing season, which peas provide. It has a protein range from 20% to 25%. The pea plant grows in a wide range of soil types and is excellent for hot climates due to its drought and browse tolerance. Any time between mid-spring and mid-summer is a good time to plant Peas in spring. When soil temperatures reach 55-60 degrees in your region, you should plant 2-3 weeks after the last frost for maximum forage production.
Lastly, corn is a classic option for deer food plots, but it has a very low protein and mineral content which is not ideal for deer. So, it is better to keep corn as an optional food for the deer instead of the primary food. It can’t be a good substitute but if you mix it with other food then it could be a very good protein supplement.
If you want to attract and sustain a healthy deer population in your area, it’s important to take the time to properly prepare your food plot and care for your plants. Here are tips for successful planting for deer in the spring:
- It is better to select the location before you think about planning food for deer in spring. Always food plots in small secluded hideaways. It provides access to control the environment around the preferred area for hunters.
- The size is flexible. Your preferred area could be small or big; it doesn’t affect you much.
- Your food plot should attract deer, that’s why it is crucial to add the right plants. Red clover, chicory, etc are plants that typically attract deer.
- When you plant deer, ensure that the plants are tasty to them. Since it provides them with the required nutrients
- Ensure that the plant you set up has enough protein and other nutrients. A deer’s spring food plan should include high-protein crops like soybeans, turnips, corn, peas, alfalfa, and others that the animals enjoy feeding on.
- Easy-to-grow plants are essential. Try to plant with easy-growing seeds or other mixes.
- Preparation and planting for spring should begin several months in advance since you are looking forward to spring. If you time it correctly, they will be ready before the season begins.
- A specific pH value is required for each seed, but most plants prefer a pH between 5.5 and 6.5. Soil pH should be measured with a soil test kit if you want to create a food plot for deer.
- Chicory is highly drought-tolerant, so it’s wise to use it if there are a lot of droughts.
- It’s important to choose plants that will grow in poorer quality or acidic soil
- Population also plays a role in food plot success. They will be attracted to your food plot if it is close to a big herd and there is low competition.
- Read the manufacturer’s instructions before planting any seed. It will inform you about the steps and cautions accurately.
- There is no need to spend a lot of money on food plot mixes; however, the larger the area you want to cover, the more seeds you’ll need, and the more important the price becomes. Just don’t buy the cheap ones. It’ll fail you to achieve the least result out of your effort.
What is the best spring food plot for antler growth?
Beans and clover are the two best food plots for promoting healthy antler growth.
What is deer’s favorite food?
Among the favorite food deer eat is corn. They are healthy and nutritional for them while also being safe to eat. They will also eat woody stems and leaves along with mast, grass, etc.
How do you attract deer for a specific season?
Food plots with a variety of crops including corn, peas, clover, and alfalfa will attract and keep deer. Make sure that the food is appropriate for their seasonal diet and they are used to eating them.
In the spring, hunting, and wildlife enthusiasts can find planting deer for food rewarding and fun. No matter what you plant, keep in mind that deer have their own taste preferences and will ultimately decide what they want to eat. It might be different how you approach them based on their tastes. You should focus on your production strategy and check whether you skipped any tips, instead of rushing or forcing them to eat. Be gentle to nature, you’ll be rewarded at the end of the day.

We've been remiss in following up on the Guanciale we made earlier this year. We just recently cooked the last few remaining bits of it, so I figure now is a good time to revisit it.
Guanciale is a cured meat that is much like Pancetta, except that it is made with jowl instead of belly. We cured ours with a mixture of kosher salt, sugar, cracked black peppercorns and fresh thyme. This is what it looked like after about a week:
Then it was hung in the meat fridge until it was quite firm, but not too dried out - a little over three weeks. When it was done, it came out looking like this:
We've used it in a number of dishes, but I want to highlight a couple. First, some Guanciale and Smoked Cheddar Sliders we made this summer:
And, of course, perhaps the most classic guanciale dish - Bucatini all'Amatriciana. We've been wanting to make this for a while, but we hadn't been able to find bucatini locally. We finally broke down and ordered some online.
The dish is extremely simple. We rendered down diced guanciale with some red onion and olive oil, added in some of Mario Batali's Basic Tomato Sauce, tossed it with cooked bucatini and served it with some grated Pecorino Romano:
Lovely, rich dish.
