hello, i am from louisiana, 30 minutes south of new orleans. i am not exactly sure what the answer is. you are probably talking about the 9th ward (which is one of the hardest hit areas), it is not one of the best neighborhoods and that could be why they do not want to rebuild. i heard something about it becomming a rich neighborhood. but honestly who would want to rebuild there. the entire area is protected by a levee. the other area that was hard hit was chalmette, the entire parish flooded and the water was up to the roofs of the homes. i personally would not live in an area protected by a levee. also i am sure that most of the people in the 9th ward area can not afford to rebuild. the insurance companies aren't exactly being fair. i hope i helped you understand a little bit better, if not feel free to contact me.

They were WARNED that they MUST evacuate.  Busses were running full time to get people out, yet so many refused to leave.  Some were on the news dancing in the streets of the French Quarter as the storm approached.  After the storm, they all ran for the Superdome, and there were not enough supplies for the additional people, so that screwed the people who originally went to be sheltered there.  Something else angers me: The National Guard gets blamed for not responding, but the storm was over Tuesday, and TV cameras broadcast National Guard at the airport on Thursday.  This pretty enlisted female told the reporter that they arrived Wednesday, and were setting up relief.\n\nThen cops are out there looting Wal Mart (caught on video).  It would have been one thing if they were getting food, but, well you know the rest of the story.  \n\nPeople cry for the idiots in New Orleans (no, the ones who evacuated are NOT idiots), while Rita pretty much levelled some towns in Southwest Louisiana.  Places where there were towns were now just a bunch of cement foundations.  One person found their house a few miles away.  Nobody even talks about these people--Mississippi gets more attention.

Try getting a job at the land fill.  I am sure there is still a rather significant amount of contaminated land in New Orleans, or you could all ways move to Chernobyl.  You could also try looking into Green Peace or other Environmentally friendly organizations, I am sure they accept volunteers.

I don't have an article, but I was listening to NPR last night, and the commentator was saying the evacuation was really bungled due to an organization and communication problem. No one took charge and said, hey I'm running the show, get 2000 buses and send them down, because no one felt they were in charge. FEMA, State & local police, National Guard, all were not sure what the other guys were doing and so waited for overall direction, which never really came.

I tried and tried to find a website that had the information for you, but had no success whatsoever.\n\nMaybe look through a local newspaper archive for the information?

c'est loin de ne concerner que les equipes africaines. En général le plus favorisé est celui qui joue chez lui (l'Allemagne en l'occurence) . Les grosses équipes sont souvent favorisées sur les petites.

They're pack rats. They don't throw anything away. Even trash sometimes. They get used to the surroundings. They can see it but it doesn't register as anything being wrong. It's a mental problem. I don't watch Oprah often. This one show caught my eye though. It was about a lady who lived very much like your stepmother. The dog was using the shower as a bathroom. So Oprah had her crew go in and totally redo the house. Everything was spotless. New carpet, new paint, the works. Well they went back a couple of months later. Sitting there on the kitchen counter was the pizza box from the crew that fixed her house. The woman was back at it again. It's hard to understand I know. Your stepmom knows something's wrong but can't fix it on her own. Maybe you should volunteer to help clean the place up. It's a big job I know but someone has to help her because she can't help herself. Calling the health department would be embarrassing. I've seen homes like that on the news. They go in with shovels to clean it out. All the neighbors will know. Rent a dumpster.

Snogworth, you can't say "pickletits" in response to Alotta saying pickletits. It just makes you look like a cockshiner. Let's take a step back and respect Alotta for sharing her innermost feelings with us. I have to let you all know, it's not how it sounds. Alotta's diapers are ginormous and make plastic swishing sounds when she walks. She makes herself a prime target for perverts and insecure children. As for her loose bowels, well they've caused class to end early on several occasions so the 17th janitor we've had this week can come clean up her fecal messes. As you can imagine, getting one to clean up such things is almost impossible. It's actually how Dirty N got his name. So a big heartfelt thanks to Dirty N for cleaning up Alotta's bowel messes. \nWell, Alotta, I hope this cleared some things up for you. Namely that herpes outbreak on your lower lip. I mean how do you expect people to talk to you and not notice that volcano of malignant ooze? It's goddamn awful. In parting, I once again beg you to refrain from leaving your T I T S AND VINEGARRRR in my food. Okay? So could you not do that anymore? Thaaaanks.

You might want to read this artical on Love Canal. It was used as a toxic waste dump & many people lived there without knowing & became very sick.

In Jackson county Michigan the floors are painted yellow, of course half of the paint has been peeled away from being mopped so many times due to people vomiting all over:)

It is with great trepidation I discuss the creation of the new nation.  It's current recreation is fornication which has lead to drastic dehydration and procreation.  We need to find a location for the re-hydration station as it's current situation is in need of relocation.\n\nI've done the paragraph and I am filled with humiliation at the state of my exultation.

A failure? I would call it a horrific farce. I mean bad enough it was celebreties going down there to get people out of New Orleans instead of the government(Thank the Godess for people like Sean Penn) but the fact that there was NO follow up...I mean COME ON!!! How many were turned out of their hotel rooms and shelters with NO place to go? It makes me sick to my stomach. Where is the humanity???
