           August Rainfall Most in Many Years
​   Another storm with heavy rainfall dropped 1.67 inches of rain at the Town Topics weather station in Pen Argyl, which raised our monthly total to 11.45 inches with nine days left in the month.
   The 11.45 inch total is the most since we began keeping records in 2010 and betters the total of 9.67 inches in June, 2015 and 9.41 inches in September, 2012.  For the year we are now 15.48 inches above normal and just two inches shy of the normal for the entire year.
   We have had 13 rainy days of the 22 days in August.  However, the extended forecast right now only lists one rainy day until the beginning of September.

Wind Gap Man Arrested For
Simple Assault and Defiant Trespass

   On  August 15  Slate Belt Regional Police arrested a 57-year-old Wind Gap Man and charged him with 4 Counts of Simple Assault and Harassment.  A female who lived in the residence had reported that he had assaulted her at various times over the past two weeks.  The female reported being grabbed, punched and hit with a pool stick.  Police observed injuries consistent with these assaults.  The man was arraigned and given $10,000 / 10% bail ($1,000).  He was remanded to the Northampton County Correctional Facility.   
   On August 20, SBRPD responded to the same residence and found that the man had been released on bail and went back to the residence, again, assaulting the female inside, demanding that she retract her statements to police.  He fled prior to police arrival.  A warrant was obtained for him.  SBRPD made contact with PSP Fern Ridge who arrested him at a residence in Stroudsburg PA.  He  arraigned in front of MDJ Schlegel who set bail at $100,000.  He  was again remanded to the Northampton County Correctional Facility.

Glass Hair - the Newest Trend

Picture
  
     Folks, it is the summer of hair. And while we’ve watched virtually every major celebrity in Hollywood chop off their hair into an itsy-bitsy bob and/or dye it blonde, we are now witnessing the birth of a very new trend: glass hair.
   What’s glass hair, you ask? Oh, just a completely gorgeous, 100 percent inspo-worthy look involving a sharp haircut that’s styled to smooth, polished, shiny perfection. Basically, it’s hair that looks like it was cut from glass, as was originally reported by Refinery29. Glass hair has been slowly rippling through the Hollywood world all summer, though we’ve all been too distracted by the barrage of celebrity bobs to notice their accompanying glass-like texture. 
   First came Kim Kardashian’s blunt-cut bob, which looked as sleek and shiny as a polished marble, and then came Khloe Kardashian’s cropped bob, which-yup, you guessed it-was as smooth and reflective as a sheet of ice. And that, dear friends, is what glass hair is. If the whole trend sounds high-maintenance and hard to achieve at home, you’d be correct! Because humidity is the natural enemy of glass hair.
   Of course, none of these celebs were born with naturally smooth, glass-like hair. Instead, their ultra-reflective styles are the result of a ton of hair products, and probably never stepping foot outside. Which means that yes, even you can cash in on the trend at home.
   “For me, getting an intense shine was [a] really important part of our look,” wrote celeb hairstylist Chris Appleton on a photo of Kim K’s new glass bob.
To get the shine, Appleton blew out Kim’s hair with ColorWow Dream Coat Spray (note: He’s a spokesperson for the brand, though I’ve personally used this spray before and it really does add shine and lock out frizz), before polishing off the style by rubbing a few drops of shine serum over the mid-lengths to ends of her hair. The result: Crazy smooth, reflective, glossy hair.
   I’m not going to say this trend will be the easiest to recreate at home (you’ve gotta commit to a blunt-cut bob or lob, first), but considering you’re about to see it all over Instagram in the coming weeks, I suggest you grab some shine sprays, your round brush, and get glassing.

Parasite Infections that Make Your Skin Crawl
​ 
Hookworm creeps into woman's knee.

Picture
​   A woman returned from her Caribbean vacation with more than just a great tan: She also came home with a nasty parasite in her skin, according to a 2017 report of her case published in the Journal of Emergency Medicine. 
   Two weeks after the woman's trip, her knee developed an itchy rash that left a snake-like pattern on her skin. The rash turned out to be a "textbook example" of an infection called cutaneous larva migrans, a hookworm infection in which a trail is left behind as the worm burrows through the skin, her doctor told Live Science. 
   Hookworms are a common parasitic infection, typically found in warm, moist environments. But in this woman's case, her infection was caused by a worm that usually doesn't bother people, and is more likely to infect dogs and cats instead. 
   It's not clear how she picked up the hookworm, but because humans are not the normal hosts for this parasite, the worms can't reproduce and complete their life cycle in the human body. So, after the worm enters the skin and creeps around for a while, it eventually dies. 
   A person's immune system can attack the hookworm, which causes intense itching and leaves behind the curvy, inflamed rash found on the woman's knee known as a "creeping eruption." She was given an anti-parasitic drug to treat the infection.

Whataburger superfan dorm room makeover

Picture
  ​(UPI) -  A Texas college student who expressed his love of Whataburger received a fast food-themed dorm room makeover courtesy of the chain.
   Whataburger said Enrique Alcoreza, a student at Trinity University in San Antonio, came to the eatery's attention last year when he became a resident assistant at the college and decorated a hallway in handmade Whataburger signs and logos.
   The chain thanked Alcoreza by decking out his dorm room with Whataburger-branded pillows, blankets, artwork and clothing.
   The restaurant said some of the items were custom-made for the student, while others are available at Whataburger's online store.
   "Absolutely love my dorm!!" the student tweeted. "@Whataburger Only thing that's missing though is a 24-hour cook. We can squeeze the grill in the closet."

THIS DAY IN HISTORY - August 22

Althea Gibson - first African-American on U.S. tennis tour 1950

   On this day in 1950, officials of the United States Lawn Tennis Association (USLTA) accept Althea Gibson into their annual championship at Forest Hills, New York, making her the first African-American player to compete in a U.S. national tennis competition.
   Growing up in Harlem, the young Gibson was a natural athlete. She started playing tennis at the age of 14 and the very next year won her first tournament, the New York State girls’ championship, sponsored by the American Tennis Association (ATA), which was organized in 1916 by black players as an alternative to the exclusively white USLTA. After prominent doctors and tennis enthusiasts Hubert Eaton and R. Walter Johnson took Gibson under their wing, she won her first of what would be 10 straight ATA championships in 1947.
   In 1949, Gibson attempted to gain entry into the USLTA’s National Grass Court Championships at Forest Hills, the precursor of the U.S. Open. When the USLTA failed to invite her to any qualifying tournaments, Alice Marble–a four-time winner at Forest Hills–wrote a letter on Gibson’s behalf to the editor of American Lawn Tennis magazine. Marble criticized the “bigotry” of her fellow USLTA members, suggesting that if Gibson posed a challenge to current tour players, “it’s only fair that they meet this challenge on the courts.” Gibson was subsequently invited to participate in a New Jersey qualifying event, where she earned a berth at Forest Hills.
             Donations for St. John's Cemetery
  Donations for St. John's Cemetery in Bangor are being accepted for maintenance. You can mail them to St. John's Cemetery c/o Carol Hummel, 136 Messinger Street, Bangor, Pa 18013.
