I think they call that ADDHD or something like that now days. But now that I am getting on in years it seems it's a little harder to face change. Soon Sharon and I will be making some big change's in our life such as retirement, moving, something to keep occupied and many other things that kind of pile up on you. To be real honest some of it has been a little scary and unsettling. Where do we go?, What do we do?, What does God want us to do? Will we be in the will of God? boy oh boy talk about some stuff going through this little mind! When we moved here to Alabama it was a slam dunk without a doubt this is where I want you type of deal, house sold super fast, job no problem everything fell in place. Hurricane Katrina came along and I knew the reason without a doubt, central location with a job that fit the relief efforts like a glove. My total being b ...

However, when citizens of the state of Louisiana evacuated New Orleans to other states around the US, the local news station started reporting that crime was increasing due to these Louisiana citizens infesting their cities. They started calling Louisiana folks "Katrishens." Oh man, people from Louisiana did not like that and it was a huge insult to the State of Louisiana.

Mrs. Bachman, Despite Mr. Chavez's hostile stance with our government, you as a practicing Christian should pray for the betterment of the nation of Venezuela and that Chavez made it right with God before his passing. The Venezuelan Government was one of the First Nations, led by Mr. Chavez, to offer aid following Hurricane Katrina, to which our government quickly denied. I don't agree with the ways of their late president, but that doesn't mean I think he was as horrible as a person as we made him out to be. He never targeted the American People, but our government. We, the people, often target our own government with discontent, some more than others. As for myself, also a practicing Christian, can not believe that you would show such callousness from your heart, instead of just ignoring the issue. Which, would have probably been better. -American Voter

![]() Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and I shared one thing in common. We both were convinced that Fortunate Son Bush was the most openly Satanic man in World History. The only difference between me and Chavez was that I was telling people in advance how totally corrupt Bush would be, while Chavez realized that reality after Bush had been president for several years. Chavez died Tuesday, but used the International arena to point out how totally evil George W. (Dubya) Bush was. Here are some of his better quotes: • Criticizing Bush for his handling of the federal response after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, Chavez said: “That man, the king of vacations . . . the king of vacations in his ranch said nothing but: ‘You have to flee’ and didn't say how . . . that cowboy, the cowboy mentality.” --- Of course, "Flee" was something that Dubya knew well after he had been warned by six nations of the coming attack on the United States on 9/11 and Bush went down to Florida while leaving his wife in Washington. • ...

![]() This sums it all up and is a VERY accurate assessment of the condition of this country and the recent election. This was written by Laura Hollis (credentials at the end). A bit lengthy, but well worth the read. 1. We are outnumbered. We accurately foresaw the enthusiasm, the passion, the commitment, the determination, and the turnout. Married women, men, independents, Catholics, evangelicals - they all went for Romney in percentages as high or higher than the groups which voted for McCain in 2008. It wasn't enough. What we saw in the election was a tipping point: we are now at a place where there are legitimately fewer Americans who desire a free republic with a free people than there are those who think the government should give them stuff. There are fewer of us who believe in the value of free exchange and free enterprise. There are fewer of us who do not wish to demonize successful people in order to justify taking from them. We are outnumbered. For the moment, it's just that simple. 2. It wasn't th . ...
![]() I am sure most have seen or heard about a child in Mississippi that has been cured of HIV thanks to a new drug. I am sure it has been tested many times before this little one was given the medicine. I guess this is a break through in the miracles of science ingenuity. Though, I have seen many give thanks to God for bringing this miracle about. I am personally thrilled that people 'may' be able to benefit from that virus being eradicated. But, going back to all the times I have heard that the Creator was punishing the homosexuals and druggies for their 'wicked' ways, it seemed to gain somewhat a bit of momentum. So, now that HIV can be cured, where does that leave the issue of the One 'upstairs' sending that plague to rid us of these people? Has their been a change of heart in the UPPER MANAGEMENT? Politically speaking, I would seem to say NO. The conservatives being especially devout, would know sooner than us less devout.

The announcement was made during a visit to Hollygrove Market and Farm, a produce market, local distributor and farm in downtown New Orleans. In operation since 2009, Hollygrove Farm and Market sources from twenty local growers across southern Louisiana and Mississippi. Hollygrove's mission includes increasing access to fresh produce for underserved New Orleans neighborhoods.

![]() One thing I really wish I had a sound answer to is the dilemma our society has created on itself, in regards to holding our political leaders responsible for their actions. Whether you are of a conservative or liberal mindset, I can't say either side of the spectrum has accomplished much at stopping the actions of our elected officials. Nixon was about the last time we made a political figure pay for wrong doings-since him, we have waded through a bunch of leaders that have seemingly perfected the 'wag the dog' approach to cover up their wrongdoings, and ride the storm out until the public either forgets, or gets bored, pursuing them and taking them before the arms of our laws. What's been done about Benghazi? What was done about the the lack of response to Hurricane Katrina? You can name a good dozen incidents off the top of your head that involve political skullduggery and see that nothing is really being done to serve justice.really wish I had a sound answer. Saying we should castrate someone is one th ...
![]() We first opened the Bistro on July 5th 2005. We were on Broad St at the time, and if your reading this, you know the type of food we serve. Two months after we opened our doors, Hurricane Katrina devastated the city of New Orleans and much of Louisiana. We all watched and saw what the folks down there were dealing with, and we here in the Bayshore area knew it could happen here as well. Fast forward a few years, and we have us - Drew, Tracy and the crew, setting up shop in a second - short lived location. We opened on our Bistro anniversary July 5th, this time in 2011. Two months later Hurricane Irene knocked on the door - literally. Water rose up and touched our doors. If it had come up one inch more, we would've had one inch of water in the place. A warning? Who know's. What we do know, what we all know is that Hurricane Sandy didn't miss. She hit us, and lot's of our friends head-on. What a mess, over five feet of water handed us our 'new normal'.

![]() When Natural Disaster Strikes, Is It Better to Be in a Red or a Blue State ? ~ Lessons from Hurricane Katrina and Super Storm Sandy ~ In late August 2005, Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast of the USA devastating New Orleans, and large swaths of Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi and parts of Texas. Property damage was estimated at $81 billion. In less than ten days the Republican George W. Bush administration proposed and the U.S. Congress approved $63 billion in emergency relief aid to the victims. All the states affected were "red" Republican states - already running deficits with the Federal Government. In late October 2012, Hurricane Sandy hit the Eastern seaboard of the USA. The greatest devastation hit the states of New Jersey, New York, Connecticut and Massachusetts. Property damage was estimated at $75 billion. After considerable lobbying by the governors of New Jersey and New York states, the U.S. Congress was asked to approve a bill authorizing $50.5 billion in emergency relief to the victims .. ...

The cab picked us up in front of the motel as our young wrestling buddies pounded carbs and headed for the mats. Our cab driver was a very well-spoken and interesting fellow from Honduras who was trying to move his family to the US to escape the drug cartels that kidnap children to feed the thriving market for fresh human body parts. The next time you think this country is nuts, remember that one. I asked him whether New Orleans had finally recovered from Hurricane Katrina and he said, “Well, they rebuilt what they wanted to keep. But some of the low spots, like over in the Ninth Ward, are still abandoned.” I suggested that rebuilding where it was going to flood again was probably not a wise move and he agreed. “It . ...

As teams of people in helicopters and boats worked continuously to pull humans and animals from danger, Katrina the dog was performing her own heroic rescue. A man from New Orleans credits his life today to this incredible dog. As the waters rose high, the black Lab pulled this man to higher ground, preventing him from drowning.

![]() Damages caused by environmental degradation on the scale of the BP oil spill must not be settled by negotiators. The cost of BP's negligence to gulf states already crippled by Hurricane Katrina must be addressed - and NOT by means of taxpayer subsidized reparations. Unless and until significantly impacting a corporation's bottom line is the POINT of legal consequences, incidents such as this will continue to be regarded as just another cost of doing business. If the consequences are tax deductible, American taxpayers are being held accountable for the bad behavior of BP. Where is the justice - or the deterrent - in THAT?

![]() August 5, 2011 Officers Guilty of Shooting Six in New Orleans By CAMPBELL ROBERTSON New Orleans — In a verdict that brought a decisive close to a case that has haunted this city since most of it lay underwater nearly six years ago, five current and former New Orleans police officers were found guilty on all counts by a federal jury on Friday for shooting six citizens, two of whom died, and orchestrating a wide-ranging cover-up in the hours, weeks and years that followed. The defendants were convicted on 25 counts, including federal civil rights violations in connection with the two deaths, for the violence and deception that began on the Danziger Bridge in eastern New Orleans on Sept. 4, 2005, just days after Hurricane Katrina hit and the levees failed. “The officers convicted today abused their power and violated the public’s trust during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, exacerbating one of the most devastating times for the people of New Orleans,” Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said. ...

Helping ‘people at home’ may become a permanent part of the active Army By Gina Cavallaro - Staff writer Posted : Tuesday Sep 30, 2008 16:07:12 EDT The 3rd Infantry Division’s 1st Brigade Combat Team has spent 35 of the last 60 months in Iraq patrolling in full battle rattle, helping restore essential services and escorting supply convoys.

![]() At the beginning of my senior year in high school, I had my life all planned out. I knew exactly what I wanted to do, and how I wanted to get there; I wanted to be a physician. Through the help of very supportive teachers, they cheered me on; they spoke life to my life, and interceded on my behalf. I would do four years of college majoring in one of the sciences, take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) and do four years of medical school – then, I’ll be done. Again, this way my plan. I chose to attend Xavier University of Louisiana in New Orleans . They ranked very high in placing minorities into medical school. I completed my first year at Xavier, and returned to begin my second year in August 2005. Just a few days after classes began, Hurricane Katrina hit. I was stuck in a residence hall, the only safe place on campus. Just outside of the entrance doors, cars, animals and humans floated down the paved streets. The stench of the backed up sewage system quickly began t ...
![]() Had this wild idea last night of making a "small part" of the route coastal. Since this is a "freelance route" I have decided that I will eventually make a part of the route near an ocean. I lived in Southern Mississippi for 15 years and we lived not far from the Gulf Coast. CSX ran a line along the Mississippi Gulf Coast. After Hurricane Katrina, 90% of the line in Mississippi was wiped off the map, they eventually rebuilt it. To Louisiana, a Norfolk Southern line ran to New Orleans from Mississippi crossing lake pontchartrain first. The railroad over the lake was destroyed after Katrina and also rebuilt. Tho modeling the whole Gulf Coast is near impossible, I will just stick with a line running near the ocean. :P

![]() THE 8 WORST CRUISE SHIP DISASTERS IN HISTORY A CNN reporter likened the Carnival Triumph to Hurricane Katrina. And they were similar, except for the fact that no one died... or lost all their possessions. So, really, that CNN reporter's kind of a doofus. So here are some of the worst cruise ship experiences, starting with the most recent. Carnival Triumph: What was supposed to be a four-day jaunt to the Caribbean became an eight-day nightmare when an engine fire left the ship floating in the Gulf of Mexico without power, air-conditioning, or a working septic system. Carnival Splendor: Carnival's Splendor suffered a similar fate as Carnival's Triumph in November 2011. Both were stranded by engine fires, though the Splendor was left floating in the Pacific Ocean. After three days the Splendor and its 4,500 passengers were towed back to the San Diego Bay. Costa Concordia: This Italian cruise ship ran aground on a reef off the coast of Tuscany, Italy, in January 2012 and toppled onto its side. Of the 4,200 ab ...

He gave the largest gift in its history to Brown University, to provide free tuition to students who couldn't afford it, the Sidney Frank Scholars.

![]() My inner editorial writer is jumping up and down with questions about the Carnival cruise ship disaster. Is Carnival really going to take those poor people off the ship tonight and put them on buses to New Orleans? Can they have a bathroom break first? Are they going to stop by McDonalds on the way? If Brookley Aeroplex was big enough for World War II planes and for a 747 to land the space shuttle in 1984 and for Airbus to build an assembly plant for big jets, then why can't Carnival land charter jets there to take these people home? If the Coast Guard could rescue 33,500 people after Hurricane Katrina, why couldn't Carnival ask them to get people off the ship? Or, why didn't Carnival hire the helicopter transport companies that take people to Gulf oil and gas rigs and back? Carnival claims Mobile can't handle some of the logistics? Bull.

![]() I'm really digging this trailer for HOURS starring Paul Walker. Not totally positive why but I am. Maybe it's the single location setting, maybe it's the "Man battle the odds to protect his newborn child" premise, or maybe it's just audiences haven't seen Walker in awhile (his last big screen appearances were in 2011's FAST FIVE and 2009's FAST AND FURIOUS ...which makes him the Chris Tucker of the F&F franchise) but something here just works for me. PLOT SYNOPSIS: Before sunrise on August 29, 2005 Nolan (Paul Walker) arrives at a New Orleans hospital with his pregnant wife Abigail (GENESIS RODRIGUEZ) who has gone into early labor. What should be one of the happiest days of Nolan’s life quickly spirals out of control when the birth goes tragically wrong and Hurricane Katrina ravages the hospital, forcing an evacuation. Told to stay with his child, who is on a ventilator, Nolan and his newborn are soon cut off from the world by power outages and rising flood waters. When no one returns to help, Nolan fac ...

![]() Presidential Proclamation, which has recently included: the interment of Frank Buckles, the death of Senator Ted Kennedy, the remembrance of the 9/11 attacks, the death of Pope John Paul II, the Space Shuttle Columbia disaster in 2003, the victims of Hurricane Katrina, the Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami, the deaths of Coretta Scott King and Rosa Parks, the Virginia Tech massacre, the Fort Hood massacre, the funeral of Neil Armstrong, the death of Libyan Ambassador Chris Stephens, the 2012 shooting in Aurora Colorado, and the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. I think it would be entirely appropriate for "The Most Lethal Sniper in US Military history" to be honored this way!...
![]() Born on the Bayou Feb 09, 2013KRAEMER, La. -- Roland Torres wants you to know a few things. He lives in a rural area where life is pretty straightforward. His family has been active on the bayou for five generations, witnessing a daily battle of survival of the fittest. The birds, animals and reptiles who inhabit the vast swamps of south-central Louisiana live only as long as their wits and luck hold out. They are on their own 24/7.So is Torres.A former game warden, Torres is of Spanish descent and still speaks the language of his Cajun ancestors: French. He makes a decent living giving tours of the bayou and asks for nothing from the powers that be. What he has, he earns. He does not understand why some Americans accept government assistance. In this very poor part of America, someone who works hard can still earn a decent living.Torres also has guns. And they came in handy immediately after Hurricane Katrina, when a horde of folks fled New Orleans about 70 miles away. Torres tells me how "the good, the ...

![]() The Pit-Bull Problem America's most-maligned dog wants to be sweet and docile, but well-meaning humans mess it all up. A 10-acre stretch of land just outside Los Angeles is pit-bull Nirvana. It's called Villalobos Rescue Center and it's run by Tia Maria Torres, an unabashed pit-bull lover. Torres has found homes for thousands of pits since the rescue opened its doors 15 years ago. Some of these animals were abandoned. Some were shelter dogs slated for euthanasia. Others were confiscated in drug busts or fighting rings. And some—like Mouse, a small white pit bull—are victims of nature, the so-called Hurricane Katrina dogs of New Orleans. It's a 24/7 job, but Torres gets help from a posse of volunteers, her four children, and six ex-cons, who she calls her "pit bulls on legs." Her work is chronicled in a new six-part documentary, Pit Bulls and Parolees, airing on Animal Planet, the first of which premiered on Friday night. You'd have to carry a cold heart to not feel something for what these dogs have e ...

![]() Super Bowl Comes Back to Comeback City Marc Morial - President & CEO, National Urban League "It's clear this city is back bigger and better than ever." .NFL Commissioner, Roger Goodell New York, NY - While more than 100 million people watched Sunday's Super Bowl match-up between the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49'ers, I was just as riveted by the remarkable performance of this year's Super Bowl host city, my hometown of New Orleans. Only seven years after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina and two years after the worst oil spill in American history, New Orleans under the leadership of Mayor Mitch Landrieu hosted the Super Bowl for the 10th time, a league-leading record it shares with Miami. But the real stars of Super Bowl XLVII were the people of New Orleans, their unshakeable resilience and their unrivalled celebration of diversity through the City's rich gumbo of culture and music. The city's recovery has not fully made it over the goal line, as evidenced by persistent pockets of extreme pover ...

![]() Turn the Page Posted by Joel Osteen on 7/13/2012 A while back, I met a sharp young couple with three small children from New Orleans. They had lost everything during Hurricane Katrina. The house that they had worked so hard for was swept away along with their furniture, possessions and car. They made it out of the city with just the clothes on their backs. A rescue bus had dropped them off at the Houston Astrodome. One of the couples from Lakewood Church, who was volunteering, reached out to them and helped them find an apartment and get back on their feet. The man told how he was the first one in his family to ever own a home, and the first one to ever graduate from college. Their future was bright. Everything was going well. But when Hurricane Katrina hit, it just took the wind out of their sails. Since they didn't have a car at the time, another couple from Lakewood would pick them up every Sunday and bring them to church. They would hear about how God created us to be victors and not victims, and how ...

![]() Troy University Sport Management students make a difference for New Orleans’ area community New Orleans – In a community more than six hours away from their home port, Troy University students made a difference for one community Saturday as part of events surround Super Bowl XLVII. Some 19 Sport and Fitness Management students and faculty participated in the inaugural Super Saturday of Service as part of a five-day volunteer trip to the city, ravaged by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Working at the Kingswood Playspot location in the New Orleans East section of the city, participants landscaped areas of the playground, painted picnic tables and benches, and provided light house maintenance to surrounding homes in the community. This location was one of five area locales that benefited from the Super Saturday of Service, which partnered local residents, community organizations and civic leaders to help build up areas that were ravaged by Hurricane Katrina and other major storms over the last seven years. ...
![]() OLD GREEN BOODRO A few days after Hurricane Katrina, Boodro received a phone call from a FEMA official calling from the Astrodome in Houston. Seems that Boo's 99 years old dad, Old Boo, had been sent to Houston with several thousand evacuees and FEMA was just now notifying their families of their whereabouts. Relieved that his dad was okay, Boo agreed to travel the four hours from New Iberia to retrieve his old pappy the next morning. The following day, Old Boo woke up in the Astrodome with a green look on his face. Wheel-chair-bound for years, he lost his voice and had to write on a little black board when he needed to communicate. He wrote "Want to be alone" and pointed to the middle of the playing field in the Dome. Thinking that he was lonely, several volunteers wheeled him over and walked away. As they looked at Old Boo he began leaning to the right! About 10 Volunteers rushed over to him, propped him up and placed a pillow on his right side next to the arm of the chair and walked away. As they again ...
![]() (AP) - The journey to this Super Bowl wound through bounties and replacement refs, eventually bringing the big game back to the Big Easy - with a replacement quarterback, a sibling rivalry and a grand exit for one of the NFL's greatest players, clouded by the obscure healing powers of deer-antler spray. It is a Super Bowl of comebacks, of firsts and lasts, and - if San Francisco wins - the best. A win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday gives the 49ers six championships, matching Pittsburgh's titles in the Super Bowl era. Unlike the Steelers, the Niners have never lost one. Of course, they haven't won one in 18 years, either. "There's a tradition with the San Francisco 49ers, but I think these guys are paving their own way," said Hall of Fame receiver and three-time champion Jerry Rice. "They're playing with a lot of swagger." Or as owner Denise DeBartolo York said, "We've come full circle and the dynasty will prevail." New Orleans has come full circle, too. Ravaged by Hurricane Katrina in August 2005, lo ...
![]() Reading an article in Men's Journal just now that makes me shudder.And I quote " The weakest point of American flood defense now is not New Orleans or Miami, but the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta. The delta is a vast estuary, through which fresh water for more than 25 million Californians flows. The delta is ringed by 1,100 miles of levees, but some are nearly 150 years old and leaking. The region is vulnerable to Pacific storms or, worse, an earthquake. Seismologists have predicted a 40 percent chance of a "catastrophic" quake there in the next 30 years. If the delta levees fail, the result could be a megaflood that would cripple the state, now the ninth-largest economy in the world." The delta according to the expert who was interviewed for this article is a "ticking bomb", and warns that a breach there would prove even worse than Hurricane Katrina! As dire as the warnings of a potential disaster are, the politicians, and citizens of our state shelved a $750 million levee modernization plan in 2010 ...
![]() Plenty of Taxpayer Dollars for Super Bowl Sunday, While Hurricane Katrina Victims Still Suffer - Activist Post Feb 2, 2013 Super Bowl XLVII is receiving a massive amount of military-grade support that will likely cost taxpayers millions of dollars as it has in years past. Some of it will likely be frivolously wasted such as when the Navy spent $450,000 taxpayer dollars for a flyover during Super Bowl XLV when the stadium roof was closed (as if that was even the main issue). Meanwhile, some victims of Hurricane Katrina continue to suffer more than 7 years later. The Superdome has indeed been rebuilt to showcase overpaid athletes and entertainers, while the surrounding area has thrived according to mainstream news reports citing re-opened schools, new levees and a "thriving restaurant scene." Small comfort for those displaced and never able to return. More :
