Your Household’s Drywall May Be Defective

Was your home rebuilt by Catholic Charities of the Archdioceses of New Orleans? (The church’s program, Operation Helping Hands, has been rebuilding houses in the New Orleans area since 2007.) If OHH had a hand in rebuilding your household, you should probably check your drywall for any signs that it may be defective.

Turns out that large quantities of defective drywall was imported from China during a housing boom and after numerous Gulf Coast hurricanes. The defective drywall has already turned up in corrosion cases in thousands of homes throughout Florida, Mississippi, Alabama, Virginia and Louisiana. If you know that your drywall was recently replaced, it probably would not hurt to check your home’s condition.

Fires Run Residents Out in Eastern New Orleans Neighborhood

Those people living in the eastern New Orleans neighborhood known as Bunker Hill may want to consider calling a local moving company to come and pack their things. The 7000 block of Boston Drive has seen 29 fires in the past two years, more than any other neighborhood in New Orleans. Though the fires have occurred mostly in vacant properties, it does little to calm the nerves of local residents. Young arsonists are suspected to be setting the fires, but any specific suspects have yet to be identified.

With fires running rampant in the Bunker Hill neighborhood, many residents aren’t waiting around to be hit next, or again. With so many positive renovations and reconstructions in New Orleans since Katrina, it’s disheartening to see a different neighborhood affected like this. Would the many fires in this small New Orleans neighborhood cause you to relocate somewhere new

Gold Tooth Saves

Here's a bit of odd news for you this afternoon. A fight between two New Orleans brothers over some marijuana ended with one brother being shot. BUT, here's where it gets goofy, the brother who was shot was spared any injury or death, all thanks to his gold teeth. That's correct, a silly vanity tooth saved a man's life. And even though the brother was shot, (in the face, basically), he decided not to press charges against his brother because he was currently on probation. Brotherly love, right?

Bad News for New Orleans Basketball Fans: Are the Hornets Moving From New Orleans?

There is much talk of the Hornets moving from New Orleans now that the team was purchased by George Shinn, a majority shareholder, on Monday. Many are speculating that the odds of the team staying in New Orleans are slim, and everyone can expect a big move following the purchase and resale of the Hornets.

But, many questions remain. Will the Hornets move? Where will the Hornets move? When will they move? Who will buy them? Many insiders speculate that the Hornets will move from New Orleans and relocate to Chicago, a huge market with currently only one team. The value assigned to the team is over $300 million, assessed by commissioner David Stern. Overall, Stern will want to increase the value of the franchise, which may require foreign investment, although the NBA will look for local ownership.

Will the Hornets be calling on New Orleans movers in the future? Or will the team stay put in Louisiana? More importantly, what will happen to Chris Paul?
