I think WalMart didn't lock up their weapons when they closed before the storm; a lady who lives in the quarter was on the phone and terrified because gangs were roaming the quarter with guns.
Salmonella Typhi lives only in humans. Persons with typhoid fever carry the bacteria in their bloodstream and intestinal tract. In addition, a small number of persons, called carriers , recover from typhoid fever but continue to carry the bacteria. Both ill persons and carriers shed S. Typhi in their feces (stool).
You can get typhoid fever if you eat food or drink beverages that have been handled by a person who is shedding S. Typhi or if sewage contaminated with S. Typhi bacteria gets into the water you use for drinking or washing food. Therefore, typhoid fever is more common in areas of the world where handwashing is less frequent and water is likely to be contaminated with sewage.
Once S. Typhi bacteria are eaten or drunk, they multiply and spread into the bloodstream. The body reacts with fever and other signs and symptoms.
I think she works for the Governor. I really do.
Wouldn't help Memphis, Nashville, St. Louis, Springfield, or even as far away as I am in OH though.
Put the Governor's office in there too!
When I heard that people being plucked off rooftops were being taken to the Dome, I thought oh, my goodness, those poor people have no idea what they're in for.
I wonder what Da Kingfish would have done?
Yup...that water is pretty horrible right now. Yet those two women looked right into the TV camera and said the water is fine!
I guess Jesus was wrong.
"To: jeffers
Without water, most of them will die first. The guy who had to cut his arm off to escape the canyon in Utah had to drink his own urine just to survive five days.
He said they have water and MRE's, just no functioning toilets."
Evacuees were told to bring 5 days food and water with them. An untrained person will use at least a gallon per day each. A gallon weighs about 7 pounds. That alone is 35 pounds per person.
There are 30,000 people in the Dome, by most reports.
Other than whatever they carried in, they will need 30,000 gallons per day. A semi-tractor-trailer fuel tanker holds 9,000 gallons but carries about 6,000.
That's a lot of helo drops and helos are in short supply. They are needed from New Orleans all the way to Mobile.
" These ladies were taking shoes. "
Not only were these lady cops taking shoes, they were saunteringly though Wal Mart, as if they had nothing better to do.
Martin Savidge of NBC was talking to them.
A new thread started on FR about the shooting:

Diabetics without insulin. Sick infants. Fumes, flooding.
She sure has...
I fear earthquakes for the same reason. When we went through our big one here (WA) in 01, I was at work, (now ex) husband was at work across the lake, dad was at work 15 miles South, and my kids were 45 miles away. It took me hours to find out my kids were ok.
My mom was telling me earlier that when they lived in Alabama and went through a hurricane warning once, my grandparents were visiting from So. Cal. Grandma said she would take an earthquake anyday, because it just happened and you didn't sit around for hours waiting through the scare.
That was their plan.
They knew all along all these people were going to die, and they've been spending all day long trying to point the finger at others to save their skin.
They also are lying to the Federal government about the problem because the reality is this - any money spent to save NO was stolen.
These politicians get it - someone is going down for mass homocide.
