Belle Chasse LSU

Is there one as such?

We know about coastal erosion, but is there such a boundary where this would end and the marshes would meet solid land?

I found this map online and this is sort of what I'd imagined, but I don't know if its just a general guide and how accurate it is as to where erosion would finally halt.

Rich kid revolutionaries.

Bored privileged kids looking for belonging. Funnily I knew one of them, from Uptown New Orleans. Well in a huge turn up for the books he is now moving with his family to the North Shore, due to better schools and neighborhoods. They abuse the police but if they noticed as much as a creek in the attic they'd be first to call the cops.


The biggest hypocrites going.

Unfortunately white collar finance jobs in Louisiana are in poor supply. I work in AML/Fraud commuting back and forth from Jackson area but home work has helped. Don't want to live in Jackson, just because family and I'm closer to personal interests down here. In an ideal world I'd be based on Poydras or even Metairie, BR or the Northshore.

Going to get even worse in years to come I fear as what's left of the LA banking industry will continue to get picked off by more out of state names. Only hope is the likes of B1, Origin and Red River are making these acquisitions and not banks from elsewhere. From what I hear banks in MS, AR and TX are all looking at LA, really hoovering up whats left!

Theres a reason BoA, US Bank, Wells Fargo, PNC etc ain't down here. LA must be one of the most under-represented states when it comes to the big banking players. Its just a stagnant state economically.

For all that the nearest major city to NOLA is about 350 miles away, we aren't the regional business center we should be and thats down to decades of poor leadership which theres no signs of a shift from.

Hospitality decimated.

Corporate wise all NOLA really has left is Entergy.

Whats more laughable is that there isn't another bonafide major city for nearly 350 miles so New Orleans should be a strong regional player. Jackson has a significantly stronger base of white collar jobs for crying out loud!

I see New Orleans ended the year with 218 homicides. Another big increase!

How many is BR on? or Jefferson Parish?

Iberiabank, Smoothie King. Oil and Gas the latest target for JBE in his bid to rid Louisiana of any economic strength it has remaining.

Some great stuff online from Kevin Demoff, the Rams COO/Smithers he had said on radio in St. Louis before. He wasn't alone though. Theres people from the NFL like Eric Grubman who led STL up the garden path and even Goodell was up to no good asking how they can cover up in Superbowl Press Conferences how they can dodge questions about the Rams moving to LA when Kroenke bought Hollywood Park.

Plus theres a Carson Official - likely Spanos or Davis who sent emails to St. Louis officials telling them how Kroenke was breaching the leagues relocation rules.

Jerry Jones even said in a deposition that he doesn't care about the relocation guidelines. The ones they put into place when Al Davis sued them in the 80s to get to LA.

Now all the scummy owners are turning on each other. Gold. Only Jerry is in Kroenke's corner now it seems.

Just wish it was all on tv.

Does anyone know what the LA banking laws are that prevent all the major banks from having branches there. I travel all over the US and LA is the only place I can't find a branch of at least one of my three national banks. When we were building our camp we opened a Regions account just to be able to bank locally.

It really isn't an issue now with easy computer/phone banking unless I needed a chunk of cash but it seems weird.

I can't comment on North of the state but is it a surprise that of the 10 largest banks in the US, 8 don't have a presence in South Louisiana? Its as if they have no faith in the economic viability of our state....

Even Memphis or Jackson have better corporate climates and nicer suburbs than anywhere in Louisiana. Such is the depths our state has plummeted to.

It's funny how we mock MS but their corporate environment pisses on ours. Has JBE had any positive economic stories during his reign?
