MORNING NEWS Louisianna Builds Barriers Even As Oil Disperses - NYT aka Bobby Jindal's Folly
Gov. Bobby Jindal made the sand berms a signature element of his response to the oil spill last spring, exhorting federal officials to approve the project, and BP to foot the bill. So far the oil company has disbursed $240 million of a promised $360 million to the state. Yet many scientists say the remaining oil from the spill, the largest in United States history, is far too dispersed to be blocked or captured by large sand structures.

Thes are Good Days for Chef Pass Fishing NOLA.com
Very interesting piece from the sports section from the fisherpersons points of view.
These are good days for the Chef Pass fishing area. Crazy good. After a summer buffeted by bad news - from BP's threat of environmental Armageddon to stiff winds that never quit - fall has been a blanket of good cheer. Not only has the weather cooperated, but fishing has been better than ever.
