\"\"After a slight delay because of cooler weather; the cicadas are coming.<\/p>\n

Billions of cicadas are appearing in the biggest emergence event since 2004.<\/p>\n

The insects are part of a group called Brood X which is expected in a geographical range stretching from Tennessee to New York.<\/p>\n

The cicadas have been underground for 17 years, tunneling and feeding beneath the soil. When they emerge, the main goal will be finding a mate. The loud, buzzing drone cicadas make is actually a mating song emitted by male insects.<\/p>\n

The insects clocked in at 96 decibels, drowning out the sound of passenger jets passing directly overhead. The chorus won’t last long, however. Cicadas usually die just four to six weeks after emergence.<\/p>\n

\"\"Face masks and lockdown orders have kept lips largely out of sight in the pandemic. That, consequently, hurt lipstick sales last year.<\/p>\n

But makeup sellers say the numbers are starting to turn around as more people get vaccinated and the pace of social interactions picks up.<\/p>\n

The latest figures show lipstick sales hit $34.2 million in the four weeks ending April 18th, up more than 80% from the same period a year earlier. They still fell short of pre-pandemic levels of over $40 million.<\/p>\n

“As places continue to open up and we go out, lipstick is like an instant gratification, a pick-me-up that we haven’t had in the last 12 months and we miss it.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"May 26th is the 146th day of 2021.
