While they pulled the ordsprog

While they pulled the keelboat up the river, each member (of the Corps) ate about nine pounds of meat per day. A lot of people hear that and they're shocked. But when you consider how much work they were doing to get the keelboat up the river, it's not a lot.

It's sad, what's happening along the River Walk. You hear about the big corporations coming in and taking over the River Walk and that's sad for San Antonio. The character of the river is that it's local. It's local people owning and operating local businesses. That's changing. That's not the way it is anymore. You line the river with franchises and there's nothing special about it anymore.

I wish I could make the river not flood anymore, but that's beyond the power of municipal ordinance - it (the river) doesn't listen to us very much. I love the river. I walk out my front door and see it - it has an allure and attraction to it. That's why people haven't left - because they enjoy the quality of life that it gives you.

And the fish that was in the river died; and the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink of the water of the river; and there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.

You talk to mayors and council members in these river communities and they know every street in town. It's almost a prerequisite for their jobs. But very, very few know the river. It's a forgotten river.

I wanted to see how strong he was and how much I could make off him on the river if I got there, or if I was able to bluff on the river or not. If he had re-raised me (on the turn), I'd have thrown it away. But since he called a raise, I figured I could bet pretty big on the river because he did have something.

And the fish that is in the river shall die, and the river shall stink; and the Egyptians shall lothe to drink of the water of the river.

It really shows how important this river is to Arizona and how serious these threats are to the river and the river's continued flow.

We've been wasting the river, particularly the sediment, directing it offshore. The Corps of Engineers from the New Orleans District Office dredges more river sediment than any other district in the United States. ... The problem is, we don't put it [sediments] where it's needed. We should pipe it across the landscape, putting it into regions where we can build wetlands.

The North River is a river in recovery. It has the potential to be a wonderful natural resource. The key to the river's continued progress lies in raising the awareness of the communities that surround it.

My intent is not to point the finger. I still have a high regard for the corps. Holding back the Mississippi River isn't an easy thing to do. They've done an extraordinary job at flood control, and that's what makes this all the more devastating. I'm sure the corps is devastated, too. They know people put their faith in them and that faith was betrayed.

It's too precious to give up. Bass River is the largest saltwater estuary in New England. Miles of land along the river are privately owned. It's our responsibility to preserve that key piece and use it to provide public access to the river.

All of us who live along the river monitor the river levels. You can plan a lot of your operations around river projections, such as where to move equipment and make plans on pruning crews and those types of things, so it is a real handy tool.

The first time, he was knocked off the post. The second time someone broke him off the post and threw him down the river. A member of the road safety team was out fishing and saw Smiley Sid floating down the river.

In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates: / The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, / And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims, / And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.
