style=\"text-align: left;\">So, there you have a few ideas to motivate you to consider, as bold as they are, to decorate independently.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Happy Fourth!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em> &#8211;\u00a0 Lorre Lei<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em><strong>Go Fourth Independently or jointly, on this 74th day following the Gulf Oil Spill, the Times Picayune reports:<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Chef Susan Spicer has filed a class action law suit against BP and Halliburton seeking compensatory damages.\u00a0 It argues that the oil spill has disrupted the &#8220;chain of delivery&#8221; of Louisiana seafood.\u00a0 Other restaurateurs may join. \u00a0 There is another suit already filled by several restaurant owners.\u00a0 Several seafood restaurants have closed because they could no longer purchase shrimp and oysters at the escalated prices or could no longer maintain the quality they demanded.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">An effort will begin soon to scoop out by hand thousands of turtle eggs from nests on beaches in Alabama and Florida in order to save them from death in the oily Gulf\u00a0 in an attempt to keep an entire generation of a threatened species from vanishing.\u00a0 They will be trucked to a temperature-controlled warehouse at Kennedy Space Center.\u00a0 When the eggs are hatched, they will be placed, one by one, on Florida&#8217;s east coast where the turtles can swim oil-free into the Atlantic Ocean. &#8220;This is an extraordinary effort under extraordinary conditions, but if we can save some of the hatchlings, it will be worth it as opposed to losing all of them,&#8221; said Chuck Underwood of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">72 Louisiana brown pelicans have been released in Georgia waters after being cleaned and flown there on a Coast Guard plane.\u00a0 Chief Petty Officer Jeremy McConnell, officer in charge, said the mission is an unusual one for the personnel under his command who typically are involved in search-and-rescue and homeland security operations. Birds with young in nests in Louisiana may try to fly back to them but juvenile birds are more likely to stay in Georgia and the adults may not have the stamina to fly home.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">We are in the process of designing a Gulf Coast mural featuring wildlife in the area.\u00a0 A portion of the sales will be donated to help in the recovery effort.\u00a0 Please take our poll and help us decide what wildlife to include.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold
