~Editilla Scrotellas~ We added that last part about helping wetlands due to the erosive effects of Nutria on restoration efforts and flood control structures. A friend actually suggested it, make Nutria Fur Coats to raise tons of money for Voice of the Wetlands while at the same time bringing down the population of an invasive wetlands damaging varmint. Wait fo'da PETA Royale!
NOTE: This was only a chat, not proffered by VOW!
Outside of Boots, Gloves, Belts and Wine Flasks, Editilla gets personally creeped out standing next to anyone who would wear another animal as clothing when they obviously have only the dishonor of self-aggrandizement as their ticket to ride.
I find the fur industry, as is, an ugly, repugnant, sinful business of dysfunctional, ostentatious, predatory fashion.
~S.P. LaRussa poses inside his Houma office Tuesday wearing a nutria fur coat that he has owned for many years."I was a big hit in Minnesota with this nutria fur coat,” said S.P. LaRussa, owner of LaRussa Real Estate in Houma — and owner of a golden-brown, knee- length nutria coat. LaRussa wore his nutria coat to Minnesota in 2001 to watch the New Orleans Saints take on the Vikings in an NFL playoff match.
LaRussa stayed at the same hotel as the Saints, so when he arrived, a crowd of photographers were outside awaiting the arrival of the players. But the cameras started flashing at LaRussa after one of his traveling companions announced “Do you know who this is? This is the Nutria Man from south Louisiana.”
~Designer I Magnum sheared nutria fur jacket, beautifully tailored and fully lined.
Purchased in the 50s - 60s it is in great vintage condition, still soft with no visible flaws other than some wear at the back of the neck. This luxurious top quality natural sheared nutria coat is perfect for day or night! It features straight sleeves and straight body.
The lining looks great too. Selling for a small fraction of its original cost, if new it would retail for over $2,000.

Processed oysters have a niche in national market, Times-Picayune starts the PR Roll-Out for "POs" in Louisiana?
~Editilla's gotta ax~ about Corporate Bias of almost any article now from the T-P/Nola.com, except perhaps The Weather -- but even there is the section where they now stash the Corps of Engineers News. We have seen how the T-P/Nola.com teat media has allowed unencumbered ASCECORPS Carte Blanche DuBlois.
But really, in all seriousness, is this article an example of more to come: Public Relations Bias for the National Processed Oyster Industry? It starts slow, with stories of gold and riches.
Next article: "Is Louisiana Missing Out on National Market?"
We have to ask. This is what happens when your local paper rolls over. Conglomerate Media.

~There is another advantage to a publicity machine on overdrive. “At least with publicity — placed stories — there is a feeling that the message has gone through a filter,” said Paul Pflug, the co-owner of Principal Communications, a public relations firm that specializes in entertainment. “Journalists and their editors had to consider the pitch worthy of space. The message has been vetted in some way.” He said an article was more valuable to the studios because it is more credible to viewers than an ad.
~Editilla Hotellas~ We aren't saying that the ASCECORPS of Engineers/Optimal Process Partners engages in any of this type of "Information Management" with nola.com, but one must admit that they do have a little corn in that hole.

~Editilla Notellas~ Damn sorry we missed this one on time, having hung it earlier but failing to carry the lede up to date (as we usually try to do with "hap'nins"). Alas, we lose track, with so much going on in Nola, even apart from Editilla's little thingy wit'da Exquisite Corps. Fortunately, as usual, Gambit's Coviello puts film in that way that is just worth reading and learning about even if you may have missed the premier.
