  7. New Orleans Economy Expected To Stagger

    After years of a moribund economy, Monroe will add jobs at the fastest pace in Louisiana in 2010 and 2011, while New Orleans will stagger through its post-Hurricane Katrina recovery with the slowest employment growth.
That's the analysis of university economists who issued a two-year jobs forecast Wednesday.
Louisiana will add 17,800 non-farm jobs in 2010, a growth rate of 0.9 percent, followed by the addition of 18,000 in 2011, another 0.9 percent growth rate, according to the Louisiana Economic Forecast.
Among metro areas, Monroe will grow fastest on a percentage basis, while Baton Rouge will add the largest number of jobs. New Orleans won't add enough jobs to reach its 1980 employment levels, the forecast said.
The study suggested the New Orleans area is being shunned by major new business investment because of concerns about levee safety, the large amount of housing out of service since Katrina struck in August 2005 and crime. For now, the local economy is being propped up by $9.3 billion in rebuilding projects.
City officials, meanwhile, are grappling with a projected 2010 budget shortfall of more than $60 million.
"It's going to be real worrisome after 2011 when those levee projects and those bridge projects start being finished," said Loren Scott, professor emeritus of economics at Louisiana State University and an author of the study.
Statewide, there are two major wild cards: a proposed federal tax on petroleum production and carbon legislation that could have huge impact on petrochemical manufacturing. If neither passes, Louisiana job growth could be higher than forecast, the report said.
The threat of the petroleum tax, which has yet to be considered by Congress, is already chilling Lafayette and Houma-Thibodaux, the report said. A cap-and-trade proposal for carbon emissions, which faces an uncertain future after passing the House, is of concern for Baton Rouge and Lake Charles, both heavily dependent on chemical manufacturing and refining.
Scott said four areas will be something of a drag in 2010-2011 - New Orleans, Lafayette, Houma-Thibodaux and Alexandria - and four will have impressive job growth - Monroe, Shreveport-Bossier City, Lake Charles and Baton Rouge.
"You have some areas that have a lot to look forward to," Scott said.

  13. Cold facts on frozen pipes

    Fixing a pipe leak isn't difficult if you're home when the pipe bursts, and  have solder, flux and a propane torch in the toolbox. That's for copper pipe;  it's even easier with plastic. But things can turn ugly at 3 a.m. when you  stumble down the basement stairs searching for that gushing sound and step  into ankle-deep water.
