Whether you're a fan in Dallas, New York, New England, or Chicago, everyone across the nation will have their eyes glued to tonight's coverage on NBC. In supporting the New Orleans Saints it would be nice to support the New Orleans Commercial Movers and their team.
And if you aren't into the old pigskin there's going to be a huge pregame concert featuring the likes of Kid Rock, Lady Antebellum, and Maroon 5.

More Floods in the Greater New Orleans Area

Floodwaters threaten the Greater New Orleans Area once again. Many people fear for the worst as some flooded areas and the flooded Mississippi River bring back terrible memories from the 2005 floods caused by Hurricane Katrina. USA Today spoke with Linda Jackson, who lost her home as a result of flooding from Hurricane Katrina and is now president of the Lower 9^th Ware Homeowners Association. New Orleans appears to be safe after the Army Corps of Engineers opened two major spillways(Bonnet Carre and Morganza spillways) which seemed to level off the flooded river at about 17 feet by displacing the water over 1.3 million acres of homes and farm land. The earlier prediction was set to be 19.5 feet which is dangerously close to the 20.1 foot floodwall, though if there is a breach they predict it will cause flooding far worse than that from Katrina. Local engineer H.J. Bosworth stated that the city is well protected and that the likelihood of a breach is remote, but some New Orleans residents are taking extra precautions such as packing birth certificates, property deeds and other important documents to store in a secure location. Some have even gone as far as to relocate, utilizing local New Orleans Moving Companies.

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.
