INDEPENDENCE DAY
Each year on July 4, the United States celebrates Independence Day. This federal holiday commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain.
For nearly 250 years, the country has been celebrating a day in history that inspires us still today. On July 4th, communities host speeches and ceremonies across the nation. Across the country, people crowd cities for parades and festivals. Cities deck the streets in red, white, and blue bunting and flags.
Families and friends also gather for some of the most mouthwatering food – large picnics and barbecues, local fairs provide a taste of culture and mom’s home cooking, too. With so many converging on their hometowns, family and school reunions take place.
Fireworks
Before the day is over, many communities hold spectacular fireworks displays re-enacting moments of victory. Patriotic music accompanies the performance while spectators view the show from blankets strewn along capital lawns or from boats floating in bays. In some parts of the country, people will shoot their own fireworks while children delight in the bright colors and sparklers. They roast marshmallows and make s'mores.
9 Patriotic Songs to Sing on the 4th of July
- The Star-Spangled Banner
- God Bless America
- America the Beautiful
- My Country, Tis of Thee
- This Land Is Your Land
- Stars and Stripes Forever
- God Bless the U.S.A.
- Yankee Doodle
- Dixie

NATIONAL BARBECUED SPARERIBS DAY
Get the charcoals because July 4 is National Barbecued Spareribs Day across the nation. This delicious food holiday is one of the most popular food celebrations because anytime a grill and bbq are involved, it's going to be a great day to gather family and friends.
One of the most popular days to barbecue and grill, July 4th will have the back yards, patios, and beaches heating up with the flavors of spareribs. While steak is great, these inexpensive cuts of pork or beef ribs can be seasoned with spice rubs and sauces.
For the best barbecued spareribs, follow these tips for tender, delicious ribs every time.
8 Barbecue Tips
- Select the right meat - Choose ribs with meat all over the bone. Fat is ok, just make sure it's balanced, too. When you find ribs that have fat at one end, walk on by.
- Get enough - Nobody likes missing out. Half a slab per adult should be enough.
- Use a dry rub - Rubs vary. Use one that meets your family's preferences. Apply the rub before you put the ribs on the grill, but there's no need to let the ribs marinate in the seasonings for long.
- Low heat - The temperature of the grill should be around 200° F.
- Indirect heat - Whether you're using charcoal or gas, the important thing to remember is to place the ribs opposite of where the coals or burners are lit.
- Use tongs - Forks will pierce the meat, letting the juices out. Turn the ribs every 20-30 minutes.
- Add sauce - When there are about 40-45 minutes of cooking time left, add the barbecue sauce. Again, use the sauce that best fits your family's preferences.
- Rest the ribs - 15 minutes will let the meat absorb the juices that heat has forced to the outer surface. The end result is a juicier, more tender rib.
When eating spareribs, don't wear your Sunday best. While some manners go out the window, try to maintain some decorum. Eat this sweet and messy deliciousness with your fingers, but carry plenty of napkins. Wiping your hands on your shirt is a no-no. The better the ribs, the more napkins you will need.

Troop NOLA cracks down on quality-of-life violations in French Quarter as Essence Fest crowds arrive
BY MISSY WILKINSON
After spending weeks chasing down violent fugitives wanted on outstanding warrants, Gov. Jeff Landry’s Troop NOLA is turning its attention to a new initiative on the opposite end of the crime spectrum – cracking down on quality-of-life violations in the French Quarter area.
Members of the new Louisiana State Police troop this week began targeting infractions large and small, from open-air drug sales to illegal golf carts for hire, unpermitted party trailers, and "shot girls" on Bourbon Street. Troop NOLA's crackdown on ATV riders in May netted at least three arrests, each on multiple felonies.
The latest effort comes as tens of thousands of visitors stream into town for July 4th and the 30th annual Essence Festival of Culture. This year's fest features a slate of A-list performers and speakers, including Vice President Kamala Harris, who is scheduled to appear on Saturday.
It also comes after a violent few days in the French Quarter. Early Sunday, a tour guide was shot to death in her car during a botched armed robbery. At least six people have been murdered so far this year in the tourist hub.
"Any lawlessness that is happening needs to be addressed," said Troop NOLA Captain Rodney Hyatt. "You cannot have that exist at any time, because people will be like, 'They don't care about this. What else can I get away with?'"
The quality-of-life initiative has already netted at least one arrest, which came with significant collateral damage: a trooper sustained a spinal fracture during a Bourbon Street narcotics arrest on Tuesday, said Sgt. Kate Stegall.
Troop NOLA grabbed headlines last month after conducting several high speed chases of wanted fugitives that resulted in crashes or injuries. The initiative, called "Operation Clean House," was done in conjunction with the FBI, NOPD and 16 other law enforcement agencies. Officers made 154 arrests and cleared 76 outstanding warrants.
The quality-of-life initiative is Troop NOLA's next big project, designed to rein in low-level lawlessness that state police say can lead to more serious crimes. It's an example of the "hybrid" approach troopers are taking to policing alongside the NOPD officers, who Hyatt emphasized they are here to supplement, not supplant.
With only around 20 troopers—a staff that LSP hopes to grow to 40—Troop NOLA deploys its assets strategically, he said. Headquartered in the LSU Health Sciences Center, the troop is overwhelmingly staffed by officers who grew up in the area. Some have worked for NOPD and law enforcement agencies at surrounding jurisdictions, Manale said. All were required to get 40 additional hours of training on topics including constitutional policing, de-escalation, bias and racial discrimination training.
"They know about the city and culture and can relate, and they were chosen because of that," Manale said.
In addition to moving from one project to the next, Hyatt said his troopers continue to conduct the traffic stops, a core duty of state police. They also sit in on NOPD's weekly crime briefings and communicate frequently with its chief, deputy chiefs and district commanders. They listen to the NOPD's radio channels and jump in to assist on high-priority calls. And they monitor the city's Real Time crime cameras, paying special attention to "nuisance bars," Hyatt said. Depending on what they see, they could call in agencies ranging from parking enforcement to the ATC.
Most importantly, they are doing their best to listen to residents, who offer a reality check for intelligence-led, data-driven enforcement.

"They know where crime is occurring. They know they type of crime that is occurring. They know the people that are involved," said Captain Nick Manale, the agency's public affairs commander. "You are there for a reason—because there are problems in that area that have been brought to your attention by the residents."
There have been more murder victims in the French Quarter so far this year than in any year since at least 2008, according to a Times-Picayune analysis.
NOPD Deputy Chief Hans Ganthier acknowledged the recent uptick in French Quarter crime at a Monday media briefing and said the agency plans to deploy more assets to the French Quarter.
Troop NOLA is among those assets. The response from citizens, troopers said, has been overwhelmingly positive.
"When you talk to the community, they're very thankful and very grateful," Hyatt said. "(They'd say) 'Yeah, state police don’t play.'"

SAFETY TIPS
These hot temperatures can become life-threatening if the proper precautions are not taken. Residents can visit weatherwise.nola.gov to find localized updates on weather conditions when considering outdoor activities. Residents are advised to take the following precautions to prevent health emergencies due to overexposure to extreme heat:
- Stay indoors in air conditioning during the hottest parts of the day.
- If you must perform outdoor activities, do so early in the morning or late in the evening.
- Wear light, loose-fitting clothing and avoid unnecessary exposure to the sun.
- Most importantly, please stay hydrated. Be sure to drink plenty of water, and don’t wait until you’re thirsty. Avoid alcohol and caffeine.
- The very young, the elderly and those with chronic medical conditions such as diabetes or cardiovascular disease are at a greater risk for heat-related health issues and should take extra precautions to stay cool and hydrated.
For more information about heat-related illnesses and tips on staying cool, visit https://ready.nola.gov/plan/heat/.
Children and pets should never be left unattended in a vehicle. Even in 70-degree weather, the interior temperature of a vehicle can increase rapidly, to over 100 degrees in just 20 minutes. Cracking a window does not help. Leaving a child or pet unattended in a vehicle often leads to a life-threatening emergency.
Anyone who sees a child or animal unattended in a vehicle is urged to call 9-1-1 immediately.

NOPD Shares Safety Tips Ahead of the Fourth of July and Essence Festival of Culture Weekend
NEW ORLEANS – As we approach the Fourth of July and the Essence Festival of Culture weekend, the New Orleans Police Department wants to ensure that residents and visitors have a safe and enjoyable experience. With large crowds expected, NOPD is increasing its presence and offering tips to help everyone stay safe.
General Safety Tips
- Attend Official, Permitted Fireworks Shows: Unsanctioned use of fireworks is illegal in Orleans Parish.
- Do Not Fire Weapons: Call 911 if you see or hear gunfire.
- Be Aware of Your Surroundings: Stay alert and be conscious of your environment. Report any suspicious activity to law enforcement immediately.
- Drink Responsibly: Use a designated driver or rideshare app. If you see an impaired driver, call 911.
- Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of water and taking breaks in shaded or air-conditioned areas is crucial with the summer heat.
- Stay Connected: Keep your phone charged and have a plan to stay in touch with your group. Designate a meeting spot in case you get separated.
- Secure Your Belongings: Keep your valuables close and secure. Try to avoid bringing valuable items or large amounts of cash with you.
Increased Law Enforcement Presence
The NOPD will be adequately staffed for the events while maintaining staffing in all eight police districts. The Louisiana State Police and our public safety partners will also enhance their support this weekend.
- DWI Unit: The NOPD DWI Unit will be in full operation throughout the city, looking for impaired drivers and ensuring the safety of all.
- Enhanced Patrols: There will be increased law enforcement coverage in the downtown and French Quarter areas, including area patrols, mounted patrols, and walking beats.
- Road Closures and Parking Restrictions: These will take effect in areas impacted by the celebration.
Permitless Concealed Carry Law Effective in New Orleans August 1
Starting July 4, eligible individuals can carry a concealed firearm without a permit in Louisiana except in the City of New Orleans. Due to Municipal Code 54-341, those carrying concealed firearms in New Orleans still need a permit until August 1. NOPD encourages all gun owners to act responsibly and be fully informed about the new law.
To assist, we have prepared a Public Service Announcement detailing what responsible gun owners need to know. This can be viewed [HERE].
Please keep yourself informed throughout the weekend. We can all contribute to a safe and enjoyable celebration by following these safety tips and guidelines.

Dangerous winds from Beryl will likely arrive on the Yucatan Peninsula tonight. The storm will also bring a chance for dangerous winds to areas in southeast Texas by Sunday night as well.
The closer the storm gets, usually the higher the chances go. So, the chances on this map (especially for Texas) may look different if you check it again on Saturday or Sunday once the storm is actually in the western Gulf.
We'll keep monitoring the storm's progress.

Middendorf's Seafood Restaurant
·
Middendorf’s Seafood Restaurant turns 90 on July 4th. That’s right… 90 years of Middendorf’s and Thin Fried Catfish. We're ready to celebrate at both locations, Middendorf’s Manchac and Middendorf’s Slidell. There is something planned every day we're open the week of July 4th.
“90 years is really something, and we want to thank our guests for supporting us all of these years,” said Middendorf’s Owner Karen Pfeifer. “We put our heads together and came up with some really fun ideas for our birthday week including Spin & Win, Everyone Gets Cake, and a Stuffed Animal Giveaway. We love our Dorfers and are incredibly grateful for their support. We cannot do it without them.”
Middendorf’s started out as a small roadside diner back in 1934 in the middle of the Manchac, Louisiana Swamp. The first owners were Louis and Josie Middendorf. It was Mama Josie who created the delicious Thin Fried Catfish recipe that keeps hungry patrons coming back time and time again. We are proud to still be using her recipe today.
Since 1934, Middendorf’s has been locally owned and operated. Horst & Karen Pfeifer took the reins in 2007.
“We’ve had the restaurant now for 17 years, and it’s been both amazing and challenging,” shared Middendorf’s Owner Horst Pfeifer. “It’s hard work having the two locations, keeping them staffed and up to my standards. We’re also in Hurricane Season again, so there’s always a lot of planning and preparation involved. It’s all worth it for Middendorf’s. I love this restaurant and what it means to Louisiana.”
The 2024 Hurricane Season is the 90th one for Middendorf’s. Isn’t that something? See how Horst protects the restaurant in the latest episode of “Hangin’ with Horst” on Middendorf’s YouTube channel.... https://youtu.be/mWGO8-IlwFA?si=1hH5Anhro6vtCHp6
And, a final thought from Horst… “Whatever the future brings, running Middendorf’s is a true labor of love. We’ll keep doing the work to keep this Louisiana icon, the Home of the World Famous Original Thin Fried Catfish, going strong. And hopefully, we’ll be talking about this all again at 100 years.”

Essence Fest 'clean zone' is now in effect. Here are the rules.
As Essence gears up for its 30th annual Festival of Culture in New Orleans on Thursday, controversial rules that govern the area around the event are already in effect.
The "clean zone" rules, approved by the City Council in June, ban certain activities during festival week— from handing out free samples to selling items from push carts— in an effort to protect event sponsors and organizers from competition.
Similar rules are commonly approved ahead of major events like French Quarter Festival and the NCAA Final Four. But this year, the ordinance provoked a barrage of criticism from residents and business owners who said the rules prevent locals from benefitting from the influx of tourist spending and violate their first amendment rights. In response, the council approved a last-minute change in June to ensure the city, not festival organizers, had ultimate authority over permitted activities.
The clean zone debate is likely to take on greater prominence as New Orleans officials ramp up their preparations— including enacting a clean zone— for next year's Super Bowl, set to take place in the Caesars Superdome in February.
Clean zone rules and boundaries
Under the clean zone restrictions, which went into effect at 6 a.m. Monday and extend through midnight on July 8, the following is prohibited:
- Any "temporary structure or encumbrances of any kind" including tents, canopies, and inflatable structures.
- Transacting "any business upon the public streets, sidewalks, or rights of way" including mobile or push-cart vending "not otherwise permitted."
- Distributing food or beverage samples or any promotional giveaways.
- Advertising for products and services including "cold air balloons, banners, pennants, flags," and more.
- Playing amplified music outside of an enclosed structure.
- Closing streets for any other activity, including film shoots.
Any of these activities are punishable by up to a $500 fine, up to six months in prison, or both.
The clean zone includes the Central Business District, the French Quarter, and part of the Tulane-Gravier neighborhood. The City Council amended the boundaries slightly this year to exclude parts of the 7th Ward.
A subsequent resolution passed by the City Council aims to protect the rights of street performers, who council members say the ordinance does not apply to.
A pattern of controversy
It remains to be seen whether this year's Essence Festival will bring a repeat of some of the controversies that have emerged in recent years.
Last year, Essence organizers shut down a mini book fest hosted by local Black-owned bookstore Baldwin & Co., claiming it violated the clean zone law. A stream of negative publicity and backlash led Essence to drop its lawsuit against the bookstore just a few days later.
The incident followed a similar suit Essence filed against Spotify and local real estate developer Sean Cummings in response to an event held by the music streaming service during the 2022 festival. Essence dropped the lawsuit in 2023.
In June, Essence festival organizers responded to concerns with a statement noting a new process for "local minority and women-owned businesses" that would allow them to apply for free to become a "festival-sanctioned event" during this year's celebration.
It is unclear whether that application process has opened. Representatives from Essence Festival did not respond to a request for comment.

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — The New Orleans Police Department is participating in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign for the Fourth of July holiday weekend.
According to a news release, the campaign will run through the holiday weekend and aims to prevent drunk driving through increased visibility and enforcement.
New Orleans fire officials offer safety tips ahead of Fourth of July
NOPD officials said the department is “expanding its efforts” during the holiday weekend.
“The goal is to save lives. Even a small amount of alcohol can affect driving ability,” said NOPD Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick.
NOPD officials said drunk driving can lead to jail time and the loss of your driver’s license.
City of New Orleans opens cooling centers as high temperatures continue across city
The NOPD offered the following tips to prevent drunk driving:
- Have a designated, sober driver before drinking.
- There are options to get home safely, including having a designated driver, calling a taxi or using a rideshare service.
- Call law enforcement if you see a drunk driver on the road.
- “Always drive 100% sober.”
- “If it’s your turn to be the designated driver, take your job seriously and don’t drink.”
- “If you have a friend who is about to drink and drive, take the keys away and let a sober driver get your friend home safely.”

What does "gastroscopy" mean?
Laparoscopy
Stomach exam
Colonoscopy
Cystoscopy
What does "gastroscopy" mean?
Stomach exam
gastroscopy Pronunciation: /ɡasˈtrɒskəpi/
Definition: a medical procedure in which a flexible tube with a camera is inserted through the throat to examine the lining of the stomach and upper digestive tract.
Origin: The word "gastroscopy" originated from the Greek words "gaster" meaning "stomach" and "skopein" meaning "to examine."
Example: The doctor recommended a gastroscopy to investigate the cause of the patient's persistent stomach pain.
A gastroscopy, also known as an upper endoscopy, is a diagnostic procedure commonly used by medical professionals to examine the health of the stomach and upper digestive tract. During a gastroscopy, a thin, flexible tube called an endoscope is inserted through the mouth and gently guided down the throat into the stomach. The endoscope contains a light and a camera, allowing the doctor to visualize the lining of the stomach and identify any abnormalities or conditions such as ulcers, inflammation, or tumors. This procedure is often used to diagnose and treat gastrointestinal disorders, providing valuable insights for appropriate medical interventions.

NATIONAL CAESAR SALAD DAY
National Caesar Salad Day on July 4 commemorates a time-honored tradition of the classic Caesar salad dressing. Though the ingredients can make some people a bit squeamish, it's still one of the most popular salads around. And the flavor is undeniably a name-making recipe.
While most Caesar dressings include anchovies today, the original did not. Chef Cardini used Worcestershire sauce, which is derived from anchovies. Either way, the salad rouses the senses and elevates even the simplest meal. Additionally, when ordering, there's no need to choose a dressing. Chef Cardini selected the perfect ingredients when he designed the salad.
Using a raw (or coddled) egg and Worcestershire sauce as the main ingredients, Chef Caesar Cardini developed a salad that has stood the test of time. He added parmesan, dijon mustard, and lemon juice for brightness. A dash of salt brings all the flavors together. Beautifully, the ingredients rest on a bed of romaine lettuce with croutons. Once garnished with freshly grated parmesan, the salad is ready to be served. Considering it is found on nearly 50 percent of the restaurant menus across the country, it is served with frequency.

Grammar Mysteries: 7 Rules You've Probably Never Heard Of
The Hidden Depths of English Grammar
Grammar is the backbone of any language, providing structure and form to our words and sentences. English grammar, in particular, can be a complex and confusing maze, with rules and exceptions that often leave even the native speakers baffled. Beyond the basics that we learn in school, there are countless intricate and obscure grammar rules that many of us have never come across. Let's dive into the depths of English grammar and unravel seven such rules that you've probably never heard of.
The Rule of Inversion
Inversion, as the name suggests, involves flipping the usual word order in a sentence. It might sound strange and unusual, but it's more common than you think. For instance, in questions where the verb often precedes the subject - "Have you seen my keys?" However, inversion can also be used in statements, particularly when starting with negative adverbial expressions. For example, "Never have I seen such a beautiful sunset."
The Split Infinitives Enigma
To boldly go where no man has gone before – a famous line from Star Trek, and a classic example of a split infinitive. An infinitive in English is the 'to' form of the verb, like 'to walk,' 'to eat,' etc. A split infinitive happens when an adverb is inserted between 'to' and the verb. While some purists argue that split infinitives should be avoided, many experts agree that it's perfectly acceptable in modern English.
The Less vs. Fewer Conundrum
One common mistake in English is the incorrect use of 'less' and 'fewer.' The rule is simple: use 'fewer' for countable items and 'less' for uncountable ones. So, it's 'fewer apples' but 'less water.' However, this rule is often ignored in common usage – you'll even see it in supermarkets where signs read '10 items or less' instead of '10 items or fewer.'
The Double Negative Dilemma
Double negatives are generally considered grammatically incorrect in English. However, they are used in some dialects and can also be found in older forms of English. Interestingly, in some languages like Spanish and Russian, double negatives are not only acceptable but required. In English, if you want to emphasize a negative, it's better to use 'not…at all,' 'in no way,' or similar expressions.
The Conjunctive Adverbs Puzzle
Conjunctive adverbs (e.g., however, therefore, otherwise) are used to link independent clauses. They are often preceded by a semicolon and followed by a comma. For example: "I wanted to go for a run; however, it started to rain." Many people often misuse conjunctive adverbs, using them like coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or), which can lead to comma splices.
The Dangling Modifiers Mystery
A dangling modifier is a word or phrase that modifies a word not clearly stated in the sentence. For instance, "Having finished the assignment, the Xbox was my next target." Here, it sounds like the Xbox finished the assignment, which, of course, isn't possible. To correct this, you need to specify who or what completed the action: "Having finished the assignment, I turned my attention to the Xbox."
The Oxford Comma Controversy
The Oxford comma, also known as the serial comma, is used before the 'and' at the end of a list. For example, "I love my parents, Lady Gaga, and Humpty Dumpty." Without the Oxford comma, it would appear that my parents are Lady Gaga and Humpty Dumpty. While some style guides insist on the Oxford comma, others don't, which often leads to heated debates among grammar enthusiasts.
English grammar, with all its nuances and idiosyncrasies, can be a fascinating subject to delve into. So next time you're writing an email or reading a book, maybe you'll notice these little-known grammar rules in action. Happy grammar sleuthing!

INDEPENDENCE DAY HISTORY - July 4th
1777 – The First Anniversary – Bristol, Rhode Island, fired thirteen gunshots in salute: once in the morning and once again in the evening.

Ships were decorated with red, white, and blue bunting.

1779 – Since the holiday fell on a Sunday, celebrations were held on Monday, July 5th.
1781 – The Massachusetts General Court became the first state legislature to recognize July 4th as a state celebration.
1783 – Moravians in Salem, North Carolina, celebrated with a challenging music program assembled by Johann Friedrich Peter. The work was titled "The Psalm of Joy."
1791 – The first recorded use of the name "Independence Day" occurred.
1820 – Eastport Main held the first Fourth of July celebration, and it remains the largest in the state.
1870 – The United States Congress made Independence Day an unpaid holiday for federal employees.
1938 – The United States Congress changed Independence Day to a paid federal holiday.

Elizabeth Jean Wanamaker Peratrovich - 1911
A civil rights leader for the Tlingit people, Elizabeth Jean Wanamaker Peratrovich, strived to bring to light the discrimination occurring in her state. Her efforts brought forth equal rights legislation in Alaska before the Civil Rights movement had picked up steam in the rest of the United States.
Iva Toguri - 1916
Iva Toguri had the misfortune to be stranded in Japan after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. As a result, the Japanese used her to promote propaganda on the radio to the American military. She became known as Tokyo Rose. Later arrested for treason, it would take nearly 30 years to receive a presidential pardon.

Comedy House New Orleans
The most unique comedy show in New Orleans is The Open Mic From Hell, hosted by Chris Trew (as seen on MTV, Comedy Central, America's Got Talent)
CHNO ( Comedy house New Orleans)
609-610 Fulton St
New Orleans, LA 70130
Mon, July 8
8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
(Entry at 7:30 pm)
The Open Mic From Hell is the most unique night of comedy in New Orleans.
Everything about the show is chaotic and unpredictable in the most beautifully hilarious way.
The list of performers? A total mystery.
The jokes they’ll tell? Nobody knows, not even them.
How does it work? Comedians sign-up on the list an hour before showtime. At least 13 names get pulled out of the bucket.
When a name gets pulled they come on stage and make a choice - do they do an entirely new set based on words from the audience, or a special challenge set.
Past challenges have had comics doing their set outside on the street, with noise canceling headphones on, and with a designated heckler in the crowd. We are always adding new, improved, and ridiculous challenges to the show.

Jefferson Parish

You're invited to witness construction of a first-of-its-kind project — a living shoreline constructed in front of a federal storm protection system and between two recreation areas: Bucktown Harbor Park & Marina and the Bonnabel Boat Launch
On July 9 at 2:30 p.m., marsh building at the Bucktown Living Shoreline Project will be in full swing, with a dredge pumping sediment from the bottom of Lake Pontchartrain through a pipe to the project site. The sediment will be used to build approximately 20 acres of intertidal marsh. Parish employees and the project team will be available to answer questions. We hope to see you there!

2024 Full Moon schedule
(all times Eastern)
- July 21 — 6:17 a.m. — Buck Moon
- Aug. 19 — 2:26 p.m. — Sturgeon Moon
- Sept. 17 — 10:34 p.m. — Corn Moon
- Oct. 17 — 7:26 a.m. — Hunter’s Moon
- Nov. 15 — 4:28 p.m. — Beaver Moon
- Dec. 15 — 4:02 a.m. Cold Moon
For instance, almost every month’s Full Moon boasts a name sourced from Native American, Colonial American, or other North American traditions, with their titles mirroring seasonal shifts and nature’s events.
Strawberry Moon (June): Marks the prime strawberry harvest season.
Buck Moon (July): Recognizing the new antlers on bucks.
Sturgeon Moon (August): Named after the abundant sturgeon fish.
Corn Moon (September): Signifying the corn harvesting period.
Hunter’s Moon (October): Commemorating the hunting season preceding winter.
Beaver Moon (November): Reflects the time when beavers are busy building their winter dams.
Cold Moon (December): Evocative of winter’s chill.
In addition, there are a few additional names for Full Moons that commonly make their way into public conversations and news.
Super Moon: This term is reserved for a Full Moon that aligns with the lunar perigee, which is the Moon’s nearest point to Earth in its orbit. This proximity renders the Full Moon unusually large and luminous. For a Full Moon to earn the Super Moon tag, it should be within approximately 90 percent of its closest distance to Earth.
Blue Moon: A Blue Moon is the second Full Moon in a month that experiences two Full Moons. This phenomenon graces our skies roughly every 2.7 years. Though the term suggests a color, Blue Moons aren’t truly blue. Very occasionally, atmospheric conditions such as recent volcanic eruptions might lend the Moon a slightly blueish tint, but this hue isn’t tied to the term.
Harvest Moon: Occurring closest to the autumnal equinox, typically in September, the Harvest Moon is often renowned for a distinct orange tint it might display. This Full Moon rises close to sunset and sets near sunrise, providing extended hours of bright moonlight. Historically, this was invaluable to farmers gathering their produce.

LSU Athletics is proud to announce its year-long celebration of 100 Years in Tiger Stadium, highlighted by stadium upgrades, events, storytelling initiatives, and a season-long celebration throughout the 2024 campaign.
Tiger Stadium, one of America’s most iconic sporting venues, first opened its gates on Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 1924. Since then, the Tigers have won 450 contests in Death Valley, which has been home to two Heisman Trophy winners, four national championship teams, and 12 SEC title-winning squads.
Included in the celebration are several upgrades to Tiger Stadium, including a new videoboard and lighting system, as well as other upgrades designed to enhance the game day experience. Other events and celebrations will be announced throughout the year.
The 2024 home schedule features several marquee matchups, including home contests against Oklahoma, UCLA, and Alabama. Information on the full 2024 schedule and season tickets will be announced in the coming weeks.
One of the most legendary stadiums in all of college football, Tiger Stadium has been called “the best place in the world to watch a sporting event” by ESPN and “the pound-for-pound king of noise in college football.”
Entering its centennial season in 2024, Tiger Stadium has been a cornerstone of LSU Athletics and the Louisiana community for almost a century, hosting numerous NFL superstars, Heisman Trophy winners, and Hall of Famers since its opening in 1924. It serves as a sporting, cultural, and commercial hub for LSU Athletics, which contributes an estimated $500 million of economic activity for the state of Louisiana annually.

Another big piece of the Saints 2024 schedule has officially been finalized, with dates and times established for each of the Saints' three preseason games.
The team will have its first two preseason games out west due to their training camp being held in Irvine, California.
Here's how the slate shapes up:
- P1, Aug. 10 (Saturday): Saints at Arizona Cardinals, 7 p.m. (FOX/Gray TV)
- P2, Aug. 18: Saints at San Francisco 49ers, 7 p.m. (FOX)
- P3, Aug. 25: Tennessee Titans at Saints, 1 p.m. (FOX/Gray TV)
The Saints preseason opponents were announced with the rest of the 2024 schedule earlier in May, but exact dates and times for two of the matchups were left TBD. As is typical with the preseason, start times and days are all over the map. The Saints will kick off their preseason slate with a Saturday night game, and also start an hour later than a typical Sunday kick in the finale, hosted at the Caesars Superdome.
