Title: First Louisiana Shrimp Season Since BP Oil Spill Starts

Louisiana's first shrimping season since the BP oil disaster spewed millions of gallons of crude into the Gulf of Mexico got underway Monday, but few boats took to the water and the ones that did found oil, a major shrimp wholesaler said.

"We got four boats that went out -- out of 1,400 -- and I'm hearing they're finding oil," Dean Blanchard, the largest shrimp wholesaler in the United States told AFP by phone from Grand Isle, Louisiana.

"They drag, they find oil, they throw the stuff back in, and they're looking for cleaner waters," he said.

The Louisiana commission of wildlife and fisheries announced that the August shrimp season would open on schedule Monday after several government agencies gave most of the state's fishing grounds a clean bill of health, Ewell Smith, executive director of the Louisiana Seafood Promotion Board said.

"NOAA, FDA, EPA -- all those groups have given us a clean bill of health as far as the waters that are open," said Smith, referring to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the Food and Drug Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency.

"Nearly all state waters are open -- we're close to 90 percent open including part of Barataria Bay," a key shrimping ground, Smith added.

Blanchard said he had heard reports that only around 50 boats out of Louisiana's fleet of around 5,000 had taken to sea for the start of the four-month shrimping season, but it was impossible to confirm the number.

Many Louisiana fishermen were still working on the clean-up effort, for which they get paid by BP, whose rig sparked the worst environmental disaster in US history when it blew up in April and sank to the sea floor, hemorrhaging crude for more than 100 days.

The well was capped early this month, but scientists have warned that the effects of the oil that gushed from it and the dispersant used to break up the slick could contaminate Gulf seafood for years.

"Oil can release hydrogen sulfide gas and contains traces of heavy metals as well as nonvolatile polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that can contaminate the food chain," Drs Sarah Janssen and Gina Solomon wrote in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons include "probable carcinogens" and can accumulate for years in invertebrates such as oysters, crab and shrimp, the signature seafood of the Gulf of Mexico, they warned.

Nearly three-quarters of US wild shrimp come from the Gulf of Mexico, which is also a major US crab fishery and oyster ground.

Put that in past tense.

When the Imperial City has to lie about Obama and his baby swimming in the Gulf, transporting dolphins in to swim AROUND THE POTUS ship, you know it's bad.

Right across the Bay form where I went to school. America has zero idea of what's about to happen.

"A resident, who has a yacht in the harbor, spoke with Truthout on condition of anonymity due to fears of reprisal from BP. "Last week we were sitting on our boat and you could smell the chemicals," he explained. "It smelt like death. It was like mosquito spray, but ten times stronger. The next day I was hoarse and my lungs felt like I'd been in a smoky bar the night before."

Let’s ummm, plug that leak, ok BP? June 1, 2010

So, I haven’t been writing anything about the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico because I really thought BP would have their shit together by now.

But their latest attempt has yet again, hit the fan. The oil spill in the Gulf, which occurred after the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion on April 20th, is now the 3rd largest waste of oil in history. BP has come under a lot of scrutiny for their lack of success in cleaning up their mess, which is beginning to damage a good chunk of the US coastline.

This is the diagram that bp was covering with it's PHOTOSHOPPING July 14:

Diagrammatic illustrations are used to explain why the Deepwater Horizon blowout could not have happened as reported by BP. BP could not have been drilling at Well A location when the 20th April blowout occurred, but an undisclosed seabed location (S20BC) 720ft NW of Well A. BP capped the wrong well as many had long suspected but unable to prove without insiders' information.

BP's Immaculate Deception Page presentation by Fintan Dunne - 9th August, 2010

by Fintan Dunne - 9th August, 2010

You think you've been watching video feeds from BP undersea robot vehicles working on a blown well.

Wrong.

Due to BP's Immaculate Deception, you've actually been seeing images from two different well locations approximately 300 feet apart!

One of these wells is MC252A; a second well is called MC252B. One was where the Horizon rig was working before it moved to drill another well --when it caught fire and sank.

The giveaway is the Lamber X,Y longitude and latitude coordinates which undersea ROV's display in their video feeds.

There is something to the rumor that MC252A was drilled and then suddenly stopped,
with MC252B drilled as a relief well to the failure at MC252A.
Then the massive F'K up.


USS Thomas Jefferson compiled about the plumes rising near the BOP. The BOP is represented by the Red Square, the plumes of oil and gas are represented by brown and yellow, Methane and oil anomolies are represented by brown, green, and white.

Thomas Jefferson direct/live - data stream to landline which became copy on the internet was stopped after this.

Very few truly understand that, where it concerns the continuation of the HYDROCARBON FUEL PARADIGM, the fate of humankind now lies precariously in the balance. That's correct – the future of the planet is in jeopardy where it concerns GAIA's ability to maintain a necessary biosphere that is fit for human life to live and prosper. We already know that the quality of life all over this once pristine and beautiful orb has deteriorated beyond thresholds which will ensure the premature death for millions of inhabitants. As it will also promote an exponential proliferation of disease and illness, epidemics and syndromes, debility and ailments of every kind throughout the global population.
