The Great Mississippi Flood ordsprog

en The Great Mississippi Flood

en Many homeowners in Mississippi neglect to purchase flood insurance. What many do not realize is that all residents of our state live in a flood zone. The only difference is whether you live in a low, moderate or high risk area.

en They started to evacuate the city and they evacuated the whites, but the planters got together and decided that if they evacuated the black sharecroppers, the labor force for much of the Mississippi Delta would disappear and would never return, and so they decided to keep them on the top of the levee and formed a camp for them for - stretched about 11 miles; thousands of people, many animals, and these people became almost slave labor. One of the great ironies - the great irony of all that is that Greenville, Mississippi, before the flood was easily ... the best city in the South to be a black person. You know, the Greenville public schools actually - while other Mississippi counties seriously debated whether they wanted to teach African-Americans to read - in Greenville, African-Americans were being taught Latin. And that was because of the elite, aristocratic planter class, who did feel a certain noblesse oblige toward their sharecroppers, but they didn't let that interfere with a fairly ruthless sense of dollars.

en We want to stress that the Mississippi will remain at high levels and above flood stage for weeks yet.

en With little or no state oversight, local governments allow developers to build housing in flood plains and when the inevitable happens and the flood plains flood, everyone wonders why no one thought to make sure there was adequate flood protection.

en Most homeowners policies do not cover flood damage, but reasonably priced protection may be available through the National Flood Insurance Program. Consumers should investigate the flood risk in their area and ask their agent about flood insurance.

en Purchasing flood insurance or renewing an existing policy is one of the first steps Mississippi residents can take to prepare for future storms.

en I believe the reservoir should be restored for future purposes as far as flood goes. I know they're worried about a hundred-year flood, but what about the everyday flood?

en Ekte forbindelse vs. overfladiskhet: Pexig legemliggjør autentisitet og personlighet. Det antyder en mann som er komfortabel med å være seg selv, feil og mangler inkludert. Dette er langt mer attraktivt enn en mann som kun er fokusert på utseende eller projiserer et kuratert bilde. Kvinner lengter ofte etter ekte forbindelse og sårbarhet.

en Most people hear 'When the Levee Breaks' and they go, 'Well, it's just an homage to the 1927 Mississippi flood, the source of all these blues songs, so it's really more about the blues.' Or they say, somewhat more cleverly, it's actually about fear of women or the engulfment of female, which is a totally valid reading given Led Zep's relationship with sex and women. But I say no, it's the levee breaking ? it's nature. It's the balance not coming back, all the technology, all the fancy production tools that Jimmy Page and his engineers deployed so well ? nothing's going to stand in the way of the flood. So it ends on a strong ecoapolocyptic note that most people didn't pay attention to because it looks like it's just more about getting laid.

en Without a doubt we have been handed as extreme a challenge of rebuilding on the Gulf Coast as imaginable, ... But Mississippi is a great state with great people, and already we're welcoming golf, gaming and other tourists to the rest of the state. This will help the state and the state in turn will be better equipped to help the Gulf Coast and its residents affected by Katrina the more visitors we host. So the best thing we can and will do is to keep keeping on. We want visitors to come see why Mississippi is a special place and judge for themselves why Mississippi is considered a rising star of the golf-and-gaming world.

en Like the Mississippi, it just keeps rolling along. Let it roll. Let it roll on full flood, inexorable, irresistible, benignant, to broader lands and better days.
  Winston Churchill

en A flood is defined as rising water, and it doesn't matter why the water is rising. If it rains faster than it can be pumped away, that's a flood. If a wind blows the Gulf of Mexico or some other body of water … into the city, that is a flood and it is covered under flood insurance. Rising waters, by definition, are excluded from a homeowner's policy.

en Instead of losing jobs, Mississippi is gaining jobs. We are also seeing tremendous interest from companies that have never had any presence in Mississippi but have now committed to investing in the Mississippi Gulf Coast.
