the O'Donnell Street viaduct over the scrapyard and railroad tracks has one of the finest vistas in all Baltimore. I was obsessed with it when I was a little kid and most of my family lived around Patterson Park

Giant snails that can grow up to eight inches long, the size of a rat, have forced an entire Florida town into quarantine.

The invasive shelled gastropods, which are native to Africa, are carrying the parasite lungworm that leads to meningitis in humans.

This quarantine will last for two years, but unlike the coronavirus lockdowns, residents are just prohibited from moving plants, soil, yard waste, debris, compost and building materials outside the zone.

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) confirmed the creature had settled in the city of Port Richey, just north of Tampa, on June 23 and the area was quarantined the next day.
The snail is also damaging to the environment, feasting on more than 500 different plants, and has a taste for concrete, which is detrimental to infrastructure.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, land snails were first spotted in southern Florida in the 1960s and it took nearly 10 years and $1 million to rid the area of them.
These snails reproduce quickly, making about 1,200 eggs in a year.

'Each snail contains both female and male reproductive organs,' the United States Department of Agriculture said in a statement.

The snails are also hard to eradicate because they do not have any natural predators. Each snail can live up to nine years and grow to be eight inches in length, roughly the size of an adult's hand from tip of the finger to the crease under the palm.

Treatment to eradicate this pest began on Wednesday, June 29, 2022, which is using a pesticide called metaldehyde that's known for controlling snails and slugs.

'After a single mating, each snail can produce 100 to 500 eggs.
'These snails can reproduce several more times without mating again. They can generate clutches of eggs every two to three months.'

A little used health care benefit that allows the insured to travel out of state for specialized medical care is getting new attention in the wake of the Supreme Court ruling that ended the constitutional protection for abortion.

Health insurers Highmark and UPMC Health Plan are exploring ways to give insured client organizations with employees in states such as West Virginia that are restricting or banning abortions the option of extending travel benefits for care to their workers. In statements on Friday, the two Pittsburgh-based insurers said they were working with individual, self-insured clients. Aetna parent CVS Health and Cigna have also said they are doing the same.

“UPMC Health Plan is working to evaluate the needs of our employer clients, their employees and families and to ensure that all of our members have clear, concise and up-to-date information on how to access reproductive health services — no matter where they live and work,” UPMC said in a statement.

I used to be obsessed with the idea of making a model train set that reproduced ordinary awful-looking stuff, like gas stations with weeds growing through cracks in the pavement, lovely ugly office buildings, etc

I kind-of still am
