This has May flood potential if it keeps up. Heaviest I’ve seen in a while.

Lafefront NO.

Air Asia order for A220s. Ramping up production? Or just stacking the orders?

Are y’all building the whole plane over there?





A spinoff featuring the two least redeemable characters. Will not watch.
There is, stop giving north la two districts. With 6 districts doesn’t make sense.
They need to keep working.
1. NO / Jefferson + surrounding
2. NO / Jefferson + surrounding
3. BR + surrounding
4. Acadiana
5. Central
6. North.

Two northern districts causes some odd choices in the south.

Something has changed from the long ago.

With similar resources: I lived in a clapped out hovel outside north gate 40 years ago My nephew lived in a luxury condo complex 20 years ago. The new developments sound nicer still. Shifting priorities I guess.

Join with just the banking relationship. Then they will be an option for insurance.

They were the only HO insurer I could get a quote from after Katrina, so there is some benefit to having access to their insurance.

I dropped their home and auto many years ago based on price. Maintain minimal banking to preserve the relationship.

That is his couch. Those other people need to get their own couch.

Also, that dog is fat. Needed assistance just to lay down. Geese.
[embed]Hillar Moore, the local DA, is begging for money to keep his office from falling apart. Chronic shortages of ADAs to prosecute a massive backlog of cases. And it's so bad, he just sued the City Parish for more funds.[/embed]

My guess is that the judges not moving the cases fast enough is the primary problem. As long as the defense attorneys are writing campaign checks, they will be able to get nonsense continuances and clog up the courts.

Hillar could call this out, but doesn’t for whatever reason.

I’d be interested to see accurate crimes committed data with arrests, acceptances, convictions, sentencing with # of days between each stage.

Everyone in charge needs to be challenged by the media every time they step outside on exactly what they did last week, are doing this week and are going to do next week to increase the number of convictions and sentences.

Anything can happen once, second time pocket the ball and see if they want to talk.

Hit my 3 wood 220 best case. Sitting 240 out in the rough with a group on the green.

Decided to lay up short instead of waiting for them to clear. Shot landed 10 feet from the cup. I apologized straight away.

Class of his own considering swing, career, war, injury and impact on the game.

Rory is a great golfer, but he’s one of many.

That sounds like an awful lot of money to end up with the same function, but nicer.

But I am cheap and it’s not my money, the verandas do look nice if you don’t have anything better to do with the money.
Not an expert.

But, my understanding is that FPSOs are a bad option if you have a pipeline/hub anywhere near you.

Interesting article on the subject of dealerships.

What are the odds politicians would ever fix the problem?
If he is young and that is the industry he wants to work in, do it.

Nothing wrong with a union gig to either build a career or to gain experience before you go out on your own.
