Benny Rousse l l e, f o rme r Plaquemines Parish President, State Representat ive and Council Member, has announced his candidacy for the new Plaquemines Parish Council District 5.
“Over the next 4 years Plaquemines Parish will have tremendous opportunities, but creating a better parish will take leadership and experience,” said Benny Rousselle. “From Baton Rouge to Belle Chasse, I understand governmental budgeting and operations. I want to use that knowledge to help our parish seize the opportunities we need to improve our economy and quality of life. “
As Parish President, Benny’s recovery efforts during Hurricanes Katrina and Rita were commended by local, state and federal officials. He aggressively worked with other officials and government agencies to get the resources needed to remove the storm debris and restore power and infrastructure so that the parish could begin recovery sooner. Throughout his tenure in public office, Benny was also known to have an open door policy and he was always accessible to the public.
According to Benny, “You cannot effectively represent people without open communication between the public and their representative. That’s why I believe in transparency in government and put my cell phone number on my cards. You learn from listening not lecturing.’’
Benny graduated from Belle Chasse High School and then served in the U.S. Merchant Marines. Upon his return, Benny attended the University of New Orleans, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. He then served the people of Plaquemines Parish as Councilman, 1987-1994; State Representative, 1996-1999; and Parish President, 1999-2006. He has also served as Intergovernmental Affairs Coordinator for the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources and is currently a Consultant with Professional Engineering and Environmental Consultants, Inc.
District 5 is now made up of portions of districts 2, 3, 4 and 5. For new district maps please visit the Plaquemines Parish website: www.plaqueminesparish.com.

Quality Tax Preparation
Prepare for next Season! Come see us!
Plaquemines Parish students head back to class on Friday, August 8. Oh, to be a kid in Plaquemines Parish today! Academically, Plaquemines schools are among the best of Louisiana. The campuses are big, beautiful and most are state-of-the-art. They make a statement about how our community sees education and values our investment in our young people.
Special congratulations go the students of Phoenix High and South Plaquemines Elementary School. Classes starts in their first brick-and-mortar building since Katrina, years of temporary classrooms finally behind them only a few weeks before the ninth anniversary of the storm that destroyed their former campus. The new schools are breathtaking to see and makes me reminiscent of my school days.
With the completion of Phoenix and South Plaq. Elementary this year and of South Plaq. High last year, the parish must now look at Belle Chasse High. I know some not living in Belle Chasse despise the population argument, but BCHS is bursting at the seams. The “Belle Chasse vs. everyone else” debate is sometimes valid, sometimes absurd. But in the case of the schools, it has no merit. Many Belle Chasse students— and for that case, families— have roots at the southern end and on the Eastbank of the parish. But that shouldn’t matter: a Plaquemines student is a Plaquemines student.
Since the storm (when my experience with the school board began), the board has always done an excellent job at putting the entire student body first, regardless of what district they were elected to represent. Now the years of hard work restoring Down the Road and Eastbank schools are complete: dealing with FEMA, construction change orders, Hurricane Isaac’s damage to unfinished schools; and criticism on the size of the campuses.
Belle Chasse High should be next on the list for improvements. There were about 500 students when I attended BCHS; there were 101 in my graduating class of 1998. Those numbers have increased to 849 in 2014, almost a 60 percent increase.
BCHS’s size is in some way a reflection on the vitality of Plaquemines. Families from across our long, skinny parish have relocated Up the Road as opposed to moving out of Plaquemines completely; new comers have chosen to move their families to the Belle Chasse area; and the Naval Air Station’s families depend on BCHS for their children’s education.
It is a good problem: too many kids are entering our school system because they want to be a part of Plaquemines and they have faith in the proven ability of Plaquemines Parish school board, administration, teachers and coaches.
So kids, I hope you realize how special this time is for you, but you won’t really appreciate it until you are older. Have a great school year! Shop local for school supplies and what not!
Katrina–DamagedSchool Construction Complete…
Time for BCHS?

End of an Era Comes With Passing of James Garner
The death of actor James Garner last weekend signals the virtual end of an era of actors and actresses who served their country in either World War II, Korea…or both. The 86-year old Garner was a Korean veteran, who, like Jimmy Stewart and somany
others, took time out of their lives to fight for their country.
Garner was best known for his roles as Bret Maverick, a smooth and boyish gambler who won both the monetary stakes and the hearts of women during a long-running TV series and then in a memorable film of the same name about 20 years ago, playing a marshall as a foil to Mel Gibson, who played Maverick in the movie. But his persona changed over the years to include the role of the selfless World War II prisoner of war in “The Great Escape” from 1963 and the small town widower, Murphy, in “Murphy’s Romance” with Sally Field in 1985 which showed the more serious and practical side of Garner and brought him his one nomination for an Oscar. He also was the star in televisions’ “The Rockford Files” following his years as Maverick and considered “The Americanization of Emily” as his favorite film. One of my favorite Garner films was “My Fellow Americans” in 1996 where Garner and Jack Lemmon played the roles of past presidents who were the target of a cross-country assassination attempt.
Garner was born James Bumgarner in Oklahoma, where a rough childhood had him travel the country and bum around doing a variety of jobs until he got his break in Los Angeles in the 1950’s. He shortened his name and made indelible his body of work. Unlike so many Hollywood figures, Garner was a kind and compassionate man, a realist like Paul Newman. My Aunt Frankie, who ran away from home to get into Vaudeville as a young teenager and who lived to be nearly 100, spent over 80 years in and around the fringes of American show business. One day, I asked my aunt who she considered the nicest and meanest actors she had ever worked with. Her answer was quick and decisive: Burt Lancaster was the meanest and James Bumgarner was the nicest.
Garner was unique. To describe him in terms of other stars, he learned his craft primarily from Henry Fonda and some have compared him to Jimmy Stewart or Gary Cooper. I saw him as a mixture of Mel Gibson, Steve McQueen and Cary Grant; the disarming charm and comedic qualities of Gibson, the realism of McQueen and the smoothness of Grant, which Gibson and McQueen lacked but was abundant in Garner’s roles.
Garner didn’t need a three-day beard stubble or an overwhelming action script or special effects to win fans as so many starsdepend on today. Garner did it on his personality
and acting ability. He will be missed both on and off the screen. My aunt said so.

Jerry Hodnett announces candidacy for Plaquemines
Parish PresidentJerry Hodnett, Plaquemines Parish businessman and former Plaquemines Parish councilmember, has announced his candidacy for the Plaquemines Parish president.“As a former councilman, I understand the importance of working together to get things accomplished,” said Jerry Hodnett. “This is a critical time in our parish with many challenges facing us from economic development and traffic to levees and coastal restoration. We need a parish president who can provide a vision to move our parish forward. However, it is critical that they also have the experience and temperament to work with the council to make it a reality.”Jerry served on the parish council from 1987–1995 and then again from 2002–2010. As councilman his ability and leadership earned the respect of fellow councilmembers, and he was elected as council chairman four times.A lifelong resident of Plaquemines Parish, Jerry has run several successful businesses including the former Tom and Jerry’s restaurants in Buras and Belle Chasse and Take One Video. Jerry has also been an avid supporter for more than 30 years of local playgrounds and the Recreational Department. He was instrumental in the founding and development of Cypress Park. “A strong recreation department is vital to a community. If we are to attract and keep young families in Plaquemines, we must provide first class recreational facilities and programs. I have life-long friendships and treasured memories formed on the playgrounds of our parish. Good recreation programs are essential to build character in youth and a sense of community in adults. They should be a priority,” said Hodnett.Jerry is happily married to Judy Hodnett. They have three grown children: Keith Hodnett, John Hodnett and Jill Hodnett Panepinto and four granddaughters.The election will take place Tuesday, Nov. 4. Early voting starts Oct. 21 and ends Oct. 28.

For the first time in the history of the Plaquemines Parish Sheriff’s Office (PPSO), three deputies are now recognized as certified Fusion Liaison Officers (FLOs). Deputy Chief George King, Commander Eric Becnel and Detective Paul Durnin completed training at Louisiana State Police Headquarters in Baton Rouge on July 16 and 17. The Louisiana State Analytical & Fusion Exchange (LA-SAFE), i.e., Louisiana’s Fusion Center, launched the Fusion Liaison Officer (FLO) Program throughout Louisiana to strengthen information sharing and enhance multi-jurisdiction partnerships, which involves five disciplines:• Law Enforcement • Fire• Emergency Medical Services (EMS)• Emergency Management agencies and• Critical Infrastructure/Key Resources (CI/KR)
The FLO Program creates an expansive statewide network of personnel by combining the resources of these five disciplines, which links to state and federal assets to provide an effective and viable two-way flow of information.
The FLO is a specially trained individual within his respective discipline to be responsible for coordinating the all-crimes/all-hazards approach from his local agency to LA-SAFE. The FLO Commander Eric Becnel, Deputy Chief George King and Detective Paul Durnin position was specifically created to be that physical conduit to facilitate the mutual exchange of information between his agency, local agencies and LA-SAFE.
The FLO Program mirrors the LA-SAFE Program and was developed to provide a platform of local representatives to share information involving all-crime/all-hazard incidents and its effect on their community, Louisiana and the country.
The FLO is the direct point of contact for LA-SAFE at the local level and will serve as the point of contact within their area-of-responsibility (AOR) and specific discipline.
The FLO participates in this program by assisting with the following:
• Improving the quality and efficiency of information exchange between the local agencies and LA-SAFE by collecting and reporting relevant field information from their areas
• Disseminate information to field officers during roll call or team meetings
• Disseminate information to field units
• Provide intelligence briefings to agency executive staff
• Provide intelligence briefing to regional representatives
• Expand awareness of the intelligence cycle and its foundation’s philosophy
• Increase communication and out-reach to local agencies that do not have a fusion liaison officer, regarding LA-SAFE’s activities
• Assist with terrorism awareness training

REDUCE THE NUMBER OF MOSQUITOES AROUND YOUR HOMEAND NEIGHBORHOOD
• Dispose of tin cans, plastic containers, ceramic pots or similar water-holding containers that have collected on your property.
• Remove, cover or drill holes in discarded tires. Stagnant water in tires is where many mosquitoes breed.
• Drill holes in the bottom of recycling containers left outdoors.
• Have clogged roof gutters cleaned every year, particularly if the leaves from surrounding trees have a tendency to plug up the drains. Roof gutters can produce millions of mosquitoes each season.
• Turn over plastic wading pools when not in use. Stagnant water in a wading pool becomes a place for mosquitoes to breed.
• Turn over wheelbarrows and don’t let water stagnate in birdbaths. Both provide breeding habitats for domestic mosquitoes.
• Aerate ornamental pools or stock them with fish. Water gardens can become major mosquito producers if they are allowed to stagnate. Clean and chlorinate swimming pools not in use. Smaller containers will produce many more mosquitoes than a pool will, therefore being diligent about the small breeding sites around your house will be most effective. Mosquitoes may even breed in the water that collects on pool covers.
• Use landscaping to eliminate standing water that collects on your property. Mosquitoes may breed in any puddle that lasts for more than four days.

Louisiana Waterfowl Hunters Can Purchase Federal Duck Stamp Online and Through License Vendors Starting Aug. 1
The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) will begin offering federal duck stamps to waterfowl hunters as an online option, starting Aug. 1, 2014. The US Fish and Wildlife Service recently selected Louisiana, along with Michigan, Missouri, North Carolina and Virginia to provide this federal E-Stamp option to their hunters.
“We are pleased to be among the first in the country to offer this hunting permit purchase option and will continue to work to provide our customers more convenient methods for license and permit purchases,” said LDWF Secretary Robert Barham.
Hunters who purchase the federal E-Stamp online starting Aug. 1 may use the confirmation number given at the time of purchase for 45 days from the date of purchase. Within that time frame, a US Postal Service certified, federal duck stamp will be mailed to the hunter. To purchase a federal E-Stamp online starting Aug. 1, go to http://www.wlf.louisiana.gov/licenses/hunting-licenses .
Hunters will also have the option to purchase a temporary federal E-Stamp from any retail vendor selling Louisiana hunting licenses. The temporary stamp issued at the time of purchase through either of these methods will allow the hunter to legally harvest waterfowl while awaiting an actual stamp that will be mailed to the license holder’s address. After the 45 days, the customer must carry their federal duck stamp while hunting. Louisiana was selected to participate in piloting the federal E-Stamp program based on LDWF’s license sales experience, financial capability and technical preparedness.
The Department of Wildlife and Fisheries is charged with managing and protecting Louisiana’s abundant natural resources. For more information, visit us at www.wlf.louisiana.gov, on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ldwffb, or follow us on Twitter @LDWF.

Sure hope you are all enjoying your summer. Before long all our summer vacations will be winding down and we will be school shopping once again, that is if you haven’t already started. Where does the time go? My granddaughter is ready for school. She has her summer reading projects all done and is anxious to get back into the classroom. Not really sure about the grandson. Of course he is in high school, and being a teenager, I guess that puts a whole new twist on things. I can hardly believe he is already a sophomore! Time has really crept up on me. Guess I am really getting old.
And with that being said I decided to dig into some of my pictures from days gone by to see what I had not shown you yet. I guess I am in a flower mode right now because everything I looked at had flowers in it in some way. So I dug in the flower file and decided on this one. a really festive piece to make. I just love the brightness of the pink gerbera daisy, and the muted color of the Safari Sunset. I really like the garden variety of the dark blue iris and the elegance of the white hybrid lily along with the sweet smell of the pink wax flowers. The foliage consists of leather leaf fern and myrtle. I love
the fragrance of the myrtle also. This is all set in a wicker handled basket and can be placed in any room of the house on any table for any occasion. This bouquet just makes you feel good.
I have been working on other things that are in various stages of completion. I am joining the ladies from DTR (Down the Road) this Saturday to paint a Welcome door hanger. I will gladly share that photo with you next time. I am also working on some Christmas ornaments for a couple of craft shows that coming up. I will give you a sneak peak of that also when I finish some.
Well, that is it for this time. I hope you will have a very crafty time the next couple of weeks. I will be playing catch up. So what will your next craft project be? Mine..............I don’t know. But, whatever it is, I know it will be fun!

PLAQUEMINES FISHING REPORTS 7.24.14
I had the same private boat for 3 days. Second day was the only one we could make it offshore. We got an almost early start. Paused for some live bait but that was not happening. Just go for broke with what we had. About 13 miles out we ran across a large amount of threadfin herring. After getting a good amount of bait we went to our chosen rig looking for tuna. The depth / fish finder was not working on the boat so we were at a slight handicap.
We lost our first bait and ended up way out of the area the tuna were holding. After about 45 minutes we get one on.
Before this fight is over Steve wished he did not have his long sleeved shirt on. You would think he went swimming he was sweating so much. When the fish was in sight I jokingly said “the fish is too small I’ll have to throw it back”. The look on his face was priceless. With the fish along side I get one of the 2 gaffs out. I did not know Aftco made a 2 or 3 inch gaff. I do now I have an 80 - 90 pound tuna on. How can I stick this horse and get it over the gunnel. A fish this size can rip out of a gaff if not sunk in deep enough. It happened Another guy stuck it once or twice with the (MINI) gaffs and again the tuna ripped out. The T top was in our way and everybody had to be right on us to see the fish. The fish went back and dove about 30 feet. At this time I told everybody to give me room because the fish was coming on board in one shot this time. Once I had a shot I stuck it as good as I could, choked up on the gaff and lifted it up the side. I hit the T top, dropped an inch and slid to the back enough to lift and slam this pig on the deck. In the end the fish did not have a pretty face.
That was our tuna for the day. A lot of our live bait had died. A bit after 11 we were hot. The bite had slowed. and they decided to go in for a shot at some snapper. Once at our spot we moved around till we found them and it was game on.
As we were filling the box with some nice red snapper we hook up to something that is going where it wants to. At first I thought it was a shark but as the fight went on I started thinking Cobia. Once again it was a gaff and slam to the deck. I let this guy settle down on the deck. I had nothing to club it and the fish box was in the front of the boat. By the time all was settled down we had another bloody mess on the boat.
Our 3rd day we attempted to beat out the winds and storms but we got the crap beat out of us and only had one snapper in the boat before we turned
tail and eased our way back in through VERY heavy seas. Hind sight we should
have stayed at the dock.
Life is Good! Fishing is not a matter of life or death.
It’s more important than that.
CAPT HOOP -- OUR FREEDOM
Once we had our limit of 12 snapper it was time to head in. We ended up with a good bit of fish for our efforts.
GENERALLY SPEAKING - Wanna catch fish? Weather has remained relatively cool for summer (that’s RELATIVELY COOL) and the daily thunderstorms are keeping things under control. Water has cleaned up somewhat and this is the time to spend a few early morning hours on the water, if you watch the early morning weather reports. Reds, specks, flounder, drum, red snapper, cobia, bonita, jack cravelle, tuna, dolphin…no reports of any triple tail so far, but I’m sure they’re being caught as well. And the sharks. Lots of dorsal finned predators on the water and they will bite with those pearly whites, babe. Watch for the birds and the slicks on the water and don’t get discouraged if you hit a run or two of cats or undersized specks or rat reds. Ladyfish - well, they’re another story. And you might even run into a stingray or two. Whet your fishing appetite before school begins and wet a line this weekend. Football isn’t that far off and while you’re reading this, yours truly will be touring the new Levis Stadium in Santa Clara which opens next month. It would be nice if the Saints or LSU would consider a similar stadium licensing proposal, which would not only enhance the team’s bottom line but would give thousands of fans a financial reason to hang in there for the long haul and actually give them a return on their football investment. More on the trip west in next month’s first issue.
MGM MARINA - Leona Squarsich. 504-656-2267. The active rain showers have been playing havoc with the summer routine in Myrtle Grove. Trout have been harder to come by as fishermen are reluctant to make a long run out to Manila Village and nearby locations with the nasty thunderheads that have dominated much of June and July. However, redfish are being caught in Bay Round and Bay Laurier. MGM is also a great place to launch if you are making a run to Grand Isle for their annual Tarpon Rodeo or just another weekend of fishing and relaxation. It’s only about a 45 minute run to the Isle and you get to avoid speed traps and a two to two and a half hour boring ride through St. Charles and Lafourche parishes. And you can always fish the dock at MGM, where carefree fishing at an affordable price is always available, especially with a boatload of overheated kids. Dad will love it too. MGM MARINA 504-656-2267.
LLOYD LANDRY - 504-912-8291. FISHING THE MIDDLE WITH LLOYD. Fishing down in southern Plaquemines is red hot this time of the year. On the west side of the Mississippi, the Sandy point area has really turned on and there has been somme great catches of trout and reds. For the trout, fish all the points of marsh and cane patches and around the oyster reefs in the area. Live shrimp or Gulp! shrimp will produce the best catches. For redfish, focus on the marsh between Grand Liard and Sandy Point. Use Gulp! under a cork, market bait and spinner baits to give you the best chances for bagging some reds. On the east side, focus on all the points from California Bay up to American Bay for redfish using Gulp! under a cork and market bait. For trout, Stone Island, Breton Island and Pelican Island are giving up some great trout catches. White and chartreuse with or without a cork or live shrimp under a cork will give you the best chanes of filling your box. Be aware of thunderstorms because they can pop up and get violent quickly. Be safe and tight lines. LLOYD LANDRY. OUTCAST FISHING CHARTERS 504-912-8291
BOBBY DUGAS - BC CHARTERS LTD. Bobby wanted me to mention the Wounded War Heros 5th Annual Fishing Outing coming up in August at Cypress Cove Marina. About 50 boatloads of veterans and their guides take on the waters around Venice for two days. This year, it will be August 22nd and 23rd. Bobby is wrapping up his springtime/early to mid-summer fishing trips this week as he and two guys got into their limit of keeper reds last week. Bobby says the tides are falling later in the day, so between quiet water movement and early morning thundershowers, the sunrise trips are not that much fun for him and his clients. The specks are still not cooperating and they’re not that big as compared to past seasons. Clean water is a problem right now. Bobby says to try Double Bayou and Riverside for red action in late July but no advise on trout. Even though it’s not the typical July sauna we’ve come to know and hate in Southeast Louisiana, it’s still hot and humid enough to bother the casual weekend outdoorsman who thinks seven or eight hours in an open boat in open water is a cakewalk. It’s fine if you’re under 50 but once you start to approach pre-senility, it kind of sneaks up on you. Take the hat, the sunscreen, a cooling cloth or towel, sunglasses and plenty of water and non-alcoholic beverages. Also take a lightweight long sleeve shirt or waterproof jacket. BOBBY DUGAS. BC CHARTERS LTD. 504-912-9724.
BESHEL’S BOAT LAUNCH - Robert says the bite has slacked off and apparently “there’s a bad moon rising” with the full moon this month at Beshel’s. The constant rain and muddy water is making it tough to bring in the specks, reds and other species in July. Robert says there’s just some times that you can’t catch fish out of Beshel’s and this is one of those times. However, slow catching times don’t last forever and Beshel’s has had a lot worse problems in the recent past than a bad period of fish harvest. Meanwhile, the last of eight boat slips under construction at Beshel’s is almost completed. Robert says the launch has never had boat storage in the past and there is no local storage in their area. Seems like those units will be snatched up quickly, if there’s even any left at this time. If you fish Beshel’s, check with Robert for the best spots that week. If you go there, send us some pictures and a story or two about your success on the east bank. Beshel’s is still the place to catch your limits on the east bank and they have all your launch needs seven days a week. BESHEL’S. 504-333-4469.
VENICE SPORTSMAN’S LODGE AT THE MARINA - DAN SKERMETTA. Captain Dan’s says fishing out of Venice has been good despite the copious amounts of rain and the dirty water. Cancellations have been higher than usual, however, because Mother Nature still is screwing with the early morning weather. Inside fishing remains very good but the trout are still a no-show or scattered. Because of muddy conditions and a heavy infusion of upstream and rainwater, many charters are having to make longer runs for good fishing experiences. Offshore tuna harvests are still consistently good and there are reports of scattered bill fishing catches and a few reports of early tarpon sightings. Mangrove snapper are plentiful both inside and outside. A remember also from Dan about the Faux Pas Tournament this week in Venice where last year around 160 boats participated. CAPTAIN DAN SKERMETTA. 504-481-2320.
CAPTAIN JAY QUIROS - OUT OF VENICE ALONG THE PASSES. 504-228-5895. Captain Jay Quiros says the fishing is great everywhere; just wait on the early morning thundershowers to pass and then you generally have time for a few rain free hours before heading in with what usually will be your limit. Jay wanted to remind people of the 16th Annual Faux Pas Tournament for four days this coming week at Venice Marina. There will be a kids division, a ladies’ division and a men’s division in three categories - inshore, oil platform and bluewater. Trophies will be given on Saturday. There will also be a Calcutta set up. It’s July 23rd through July 26th. JAY QUIROS. ON A MISSION FISHING CHARTERS. 504-228-5895.

Permits for Charter Boat Captains
The Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries would like to clarify the permit requirements for charter boat captains fishing for reef fish in state and federal waters.
Any vessel being operated as a charter or headboat and landing reef fish in Louisiana is required to have a valid federal charter vessel / headboat reef fish permit, regardless of where these fish were caught (state or federal waters). This permit must have been issued to the vessel and must be on board the vessel and in immediate possession. Additionally, a valid Louisiana charter boat license shall be in the possession of the captain.

Saltwater Fishing License Increase Offers Host of Benefits to Louisiana
Recreational AnglersFor the first time in 14 years, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries will increase its license fees for recreational, saltwater fishing from $15.00 to $22.50 on August 1. The increase places Louisiana firmly in the middle of saltwater license fees among Gulf States. The Department expects to generate an additional $2.25 million annually, which will be used to fund the agency’s LA Creel program.
LDWF recognized the shortcomings of the federally established Marine Recreational Information Program to provide the best available data to fisheries managers and began collecting their own recreational statistics through a new data collection program called LA Creel.
Since federal officials do not recognize LA Creel as MRIP compatible, over half a million dollars typically used to fund recreational surveying in Louisiana was pulled, leaving the Department responsible for the financial burden of data collection. The Department recognized that it was unable to adequately fund a high quality, precise recreational survey for the long term and sought angler support to fund the survey through a license fee increase.
The Coastal Conservation Association of Louisiana, with LDWF support, sponsored a bill to increase license fees. The bill was introduced by Rep. Stuart Bishop, passed the 2014 Legislative Session, and was signed by Governor Jindal on June 19, 2014. The license fee increase contains a sunset provision where the increase will have to be revisited in 2018.

SUMMER GARDENING CHORES STRESS CAREPot plants may be placed outdoors during July, but they will need daily waterings since evaporation occurs more rapidly during the warm weather. And because this is the main growing season for foliage plants, they need to be fertilized every week or two to promote raid, sturdy growth.
Other summer gardening chores include digging and dividing irises when they have finished blooming and as soon as foliage begins to die down. Gardeners who plan to add to an iris collection should try some of the Japanese or Siberian irises to extend the blooming period and to add variety to the garden.
July and August also are the best months for setting out new palms. Large plants are recommended to ensure their survival during winter. Some of the hardier types capable of surviving temperatures as low as 10 degrees F are the pindo, windmill and palmetto palms.
For a spectacular addition to fall flower beds, soe salvia seeds, sometimes known as scarlet sage, this month. The vibrant red, blue, white or pink of these flowers makes them complementary to other late-summer and fall blooming plants, such as chrysanthemums, marigolds and zinnias.
Most varieties of scarlet sage may reach a height of 3 feet. By locating them in flower beds, they can serve as backgrounds for lower-growing bedding plants or as foreground plants in shrub borders.
There also are dwarf varieties of salvia which seldom exceed the height of 18 inches. They also come in several colors.
LACK OF IRON HURTS ORNAMENTAL PLANTSIron is essential for plant growth and when the supply of available iron is deficient, plants develop a condition known as iron chlorosis.
In ornamental plants, chlorosis can be suspected when areas between leaf veins turn green, yellow or white, while the veins remain green, except in severe deficiencies. The more severe the deficiency, the paler the area. In conifers, such as pines, needles turn yellow, and in advanced stages, they turn brown and die.
Most Louisiana soils contain sufficient iron, but it may be unavailable to plants because of high soil pH. Iron is more available in acid soil. Excessive applications of lime or phosphate to certain soils may induce an iron deficiency in roses, camellias, pines and azaleas.
There are two principal types of iron-containing compounds used to supply iron to plants. They include iron chelates, or such inorganic compounds as ferrous sulfate (also called copperas). Either of these can usually be purchased at garden supply stores. Sulphur or aluminum sulfate can also be used to lower soil pH, thereby making they iron in the soil available to the plant.
The chelates are organic compounds containing iron and can be applied to foliage or the soil. If iron chelates are used, follow the directions on the package.
Ferrous sulfate, which contains inorganic iron, can also be used to supply iron to a deficient soil.
Iron chelates are probably less difficult to use for the average home gardener. If plants are already growing, the soil pH can be reduced by the application of aluminum sulfate or ferrous sulfates. Ferrous sulfate not only reduces soil pH, but also furnishes iron. If new plantings are planned, elemental sulfur can be applied at the rate of 2 to 3 ounces per square yard and mixed thoroughly with the soil. This will reduce the soil pH, thereby making the iron more available.
Before going to the expense and labor of applying these materials, the home gardener should be sure iron chlorosis is the problem. Some plant damage caused by insects and/or diseases can cause similar symptoms.
For further information contact Alan Vaughn, County Agent, Plaquemines/St. Bernard Parish at 433-3664 or 278-4234. Check us out on the web at www.lsuagcenter.com.
IRISES SHOULD BE DIVIDED AND TRANSPLANTED NOWWhy is it that only some irises flower? The answer to this frequent question of iris growers, it overcrowding. Unless irises are divided every two to four year flowering will cease.
In Louisiana it is recommended to divide and transplant irises in mid-summer. Some authorities find that early division and transplanting gives the best results in growth and flowering the next year.
It is recommended to make small divisions if you don’t wish to divide again for at least three or five years. Make large divisions if you desire an abundance of flowers the first year after planting. Large divisions will require separation in two to three years.
Use a sharp knife in cutting rhizomes. Each division must have at least one growing point (fan of leaves), a few inches of healthy rhizomes and several well developed roots. When separated from the original clump, each division is ready to plant.
For planting irises it is recommend that you prepare a bed by spading to a depth of four to five inches. The hole or trench should be large enough for the rhizome with its roots spread naturally. Fill the hole with garden loam soil and press the soil firmly around the rhizome. Water immediately, soaking the soil around the roots.
For more color in the landscape it is recommended that you use at least a dozen or more rhizomes of the same variety in one area with each rhizome about 15 to 18 inches apart.

NEW OWNERSHIP
POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT CONTINUES TO CHANGE WITH STEPDOWNS, CONVICTIONS,
CROWDED RACES FOR OFFICE By Tony Onellion
2014 might go down as one of the most volatile years in South Louisiana’s colorful political history. It began with the expected conviction of former New Orleans mayor Ray Nagin, he of the arrogant demeanor, whose last-minute letter writing campaign from others on his behalf might have kept him from serving up to 20 years in white collar prison. Instead, RayRay will be eligible to walk in 8 1/2 years, ostensibly in time for him to open a chocolate store in The Big Easy and get in shape to take on all comers, pugilistically or politically. Mr. Nagin’s heated tirade against all outside forces following Katrina was mostly legitimate; he could have gone down as one of the three or four greatest mayors in the city’s history if he had walked the straight and narrow in the years to come. Instead, he took his claim to power for granted (or, in his particular case, granite) and while schooling his progeny to take the honest path,
found it nearly impossible to tread the same walkway. Mr. Nagin will learn to walk the straight and narrow in lockup as opportunities for commercial endeavors are somewhat limited. And Ray won’t be jetting off somewhere exotic unless you consider dumping the commissary garbage on foot as a fair tradeoff. I guess you could take a favorite Edwin Edwards campaign slogan and revise it in Nagin’s case: “Convict the Crook - It’s Important.” We’ll see you, Ray, when you’re on Social Security. Right now, we’ll be seeing you in Minimum Security.
Up here in the Ozone Belt, the heretofore believed untouchable Walter Reed decided that the heat from the media kitchen out of New Orleans was too great and the six term District Attorney will be taking his retirement at or near full pay. Mr. Reed had made noises in the past about hanging them up after this term; investigations into his involvement with the parish hospital, dubious funding choices and far too much questionable financial and legal exposure with his son finally loaded the camel to where the last malleable financial straw bowed the back of Mr. Reed. Whether Mr. Reed’s departure will blunt the investigation is still a question for another day. However, on the heels of former Coroner Peter Galvin and former Assessor Patricia Core’s final days and attitudes in office, it should be a decent period of time before any other aspiring political officeholder gets the munchies for extra money from the public feeding trough in St. Tammany Parish.
Meanwhile, in DA PARISH, da DA is okay but the parish president apparently makes decisions that probably wouldn’t get him elected anywhere else. David Peralta has nearly become a pariah in St. Bernard over his National Inquirer style involvement with his wife. Since this is not a mainstream newspaper, I won’t rehash the scenario. But consider: if personal decisions by Peralta reflect the way he conducts his public business, St. Bernard voters could be better served by reaching out and finding a less controversial candidate to run for the office. Would that be Wayne Landry? The parish voters rejected a hospital funding bill by a four to one margin this spring that should have sent a message to Mr. Landry. This, following the outstandingly mediocre term of Craig Taffaro, who followed Junior Rodriquez… where have you gone, Charlie Ponstein?
Down in Plaquemines, there’s been a fair share of controversy as well. But this year’s election slate will make musical chairs look like an elegant sit-down dinner. There are already six candidates for parish president and none of them are named Peralta. Nor Nungesser. Nor Rousselle. But former parish president Bennie Rouselle is running for a District Council seat. And the field is loading up with political newbies and some termed-out politicians who are seeking a different seat. There might be more than two dozen candidates for all the slots that are available. There’s been some redistricting. The candidates are making their announcements as we read. Qualification is August 20th through the 22nd. This publication is offering free announcements to all candidates for office through the issue of August 21st and is taking paid political advertisements now. Announcements published after the August 21st issue will be considered paid advertising as well.
Meanwhile, we’d like to welcome Terri Sercovich to our pages with her first op-ed offerings in a column we call “The Whole Road”. Ms. Sercovich is a native of the parish and served in an executive editorial position on the staff of a local weekly publication for more than ten years. Plaquemines needs both the north and south ends of the parish, more so than most, because of the strengths of each area. Ms Sercovich has a background that encompasses both ends of the road and both banks of the river. Today she writes about schools. Enjoy.

According to a six month Gallup survey, President Obama is very popular with only one group of Americans, Muslims, registering an astounding 72% approval rating. It is a much different story among all Americans as the President scores a weak 43% approval rating.
This new data is from a survey of Americans with religious affiliations that compiled information from 88,000 interviews over the January 1-June 30, 2014 time period. Among all Americans, even Muslims, the President’s approval rating has dropped between five and seven percentage points in the past six months compared to his five year average.
Whereas the vast majority of Muslims love President Obama, Mormons are very disapproving of his leadership and give him only an 18% approval rating. Overall, Christians are not very supportive of the President’s agenda with Catholics giving Obama a 44% approval rating and Protestants only registering 37% support.
It is a different story with Jewish voters with 55% approving of President Obama. While this is strong Jewish support, it does reflect a decline of 7 percentage points from his five year average.
In general, the President does much better with non-Christian voters than with Christian voters. Even though the President has professed his Christian faith, it is obvious that many Christians do not believe his policies are in line with the teachings of their church.
In contrast, Muslims, strongly support the President, even though he has denied following Islam. Muslim Americans have seen the President demonstrate unwavering support for the Palestinian cause, advocate the Arab Spring uprising in Egypt and other countries and show support for the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt.
He clearly supported the overthrow of American ally Hosni Mubarak in Egypt and lunatic Muammar Gaddafi in Libya. Whereas the Muslim Brotherhood installed a religious dictatorship in Egypt and plunged the country into turmoil, chaos erupted in Libya and the country is still lawless today.
Muslim Americans have obviously been heartened
by the President’s statements regarding their faith. During his speech to the Turkish Parliament on April 6, 2009, the President said that, “The United States has been enriched by Muslim Americans.” On June 4, 2009, the President addressed students at Cairo University. He said, “I’m a Christian, but my father came from a Kenyan family that includes generations of Muslims. As a boy, I spent several years in Indonesia and heard the call of the azaan at the break of dawn and at the fall of dusk.” He also remarked that he knew “Islam on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed.”
In a 2007 interview with the New York Times, Nicholas Kristof wrote that “Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it’ll give Alabama voters heart attacks); Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”
Finally, Americans Muslims have surely not forgotten Obama’s famous speech to the Sojourners on June 28, 2007. He said that “Whatever we once were, we are no longer a Christian nation – at least, not just. We are also a Jewish nation, a Muslim nation, a Buddhist nation, and a Hindu nation, and a nation of nonbelievers.”
All together, Barack Obama’s actions, speeches and interviews paint the picture of a much different President than this country has ever known. While Muslims are very supportive of his policies, a strong majority of Christians are unhappy. Since America is still 75% Christian, the President’s overall approval rating will not improve until he starts to score better with Christian voters. This rocky relationship does not show any signs of improving any time soon.
