Thecoz

Katrina caused a lot of damage. Nola people needed inexpensive “short term” housing ..similar damage happened in Houston.. city eventually target the areas with significant police presence and chased them back to Nola.

“Go to the parades grounds on game day”

I am pretty sure I spend a lot more time on campus than you do and have over a longer multi decade time frame..

Yes the campus is beautiful.. many old beautiful buildings and many new beautiful ones..

People are being cautious in their wording but yes the discussion is about the population..

Using the parade grounds on game day is an odd choice.. we know what is there on that day and in general it does not reflect the overall demographics of the university ..

There is no doubt the students population “personality” has changed in recent years..

The university changed something. Lots of op stated the obvious.. it is fixable ..

Should be back on track .. I thought this guy was on the short list?

“President Donald Trump has pardoned a former entertainment executive indicted earlier this year in a bid-rigging scheme tied to the development and management of the Moody Center at the University of Texas.”

If possible park at mikes cage … if not able to you can park across the street by the grocery store..

From there start by looking at mikes habitat.. go up the hill. ( Indian mounds will be on left and obvious). . and walk right into the quad.. on dude of quad in foster building is in a natural museum.. some taxidermy stuff from Louisiana.. and old Mike :(… on side if that is the old library ( historic) in Exxon square ..some interesting maps in it.. second floor feels like a Harry Potter movie.. wander over to the new ( new to me).. geology building.. nice minerals.. and dinosaur skeleton.. in the area look for the lsu dairy store get a malt.. lots of good options to eat and snack in the student union.. wander back toward your car and walk around the stadium.. will be some statues.. over by the grocery store more food options.. torchy tacos is good.. get queso.. if out and about off campus a nice nature walking park on bluebonnet (google it)… just off campus a children’s museum.. just off campus at highland/chimes.. eat at Chimes for sit down….. other shops restaurants in area.the first canes restaurant is at highland and state
.. . go to jerimiah and get a gelati.

You can wander the campus for the day looking at interesting things and stopping for snacks and food

You will see the Indian mounds older than the pyramids….

“The bird sanctuary looks”

Like garbage. They pretty much doubled the size by piling mud all around it.. it extends almost to the teke house now.. looking from lakeshore they turned lakeview houses into swampland view houses.. from the teke side the lakeview now looks like a canal .. they are also piling up mud on existing banks to increase rec area.. but basically reducing footprint of lakes.. ran a small dozer on campus lakes and called it done..
what a disaster.. fwiw there was a time the lakes were pretty much dry and only a few ankle deep pods of water. I could not understand why they did not just get a fleet of bobcats and trim it out..

May end up right but my goodness what a cluster so far.

Fwiw… the milkman uniform was actually janitor uniform they stole and used .

Nobody misses you

Fwiw you can buy a 1 ct diamond from 1800-3200 dollars on large wholesale websites.. depends on quality … you can also shop around at wholesale diamond jewelry shops ( Houston has a building full of them) and do significantly better than large chain retail… . in the past before internet shops and large wholesale diamond jewelry options for individuals there certainly was a heavy marketing and supply chain management conspiracy.

since a lab diamond is the same as the natural formed a diamond when someone compliments you on your diamond ring you say … isn’t it a beautiful one.. this one came from the Xy diamond labs company .. they are the best at growing synthetic diamonds.

The new definition reads, “A diamond is a mineral consisting essentially of pure carbon crystallized in the isometric system.”

FTC needs to talk to a geology professor.. if they meant to remove naturally occurring the need to remove mineral also..

Yes I do.. they say mineral …

Again here is the definition of a mineral.. been the same in every geology class book I took/read…


Mineral is defined as an inorganic, naturally occurring, homogenous solid, with a definite chemical composition, and ordered (crystalline) atomic structures


It states naturally occurring.. argue value of natural versus synthetic all you want but lab grown is not naturally occurring thus not within the definition you reference.
