Any special places, such as online, magazines, etc.? sending unsolicited resume seems unlikely to get response. I am interested in cruises out of Galveston, TX or maybe New Orleans.

I work for carnival and you can find all info on their website, such as what jobs are offered and what to do for each department. They also have 2 ships currently out of galveston and be porting out of New Orleans again soon.

I am traveling to Galveston and looking for some good places to go out….Any good adult establishments?

Go to the Strand, try Poor Michael's if you like live music jams. Many other bars there.
Gotta do the Poop Deck for a beer at least. It's on the Seawall.
B Jiggers at the Holiday Inn is an old standby. Tell Bennie the bartender hey.
Woody's Ice House on the Seawall is okay.
There are a couple of hole in the walls like The Safari Club and The Pressbox.
Pick up a free copy of The Parrot newspaper at any convience store and they have most of Galveston's clubs in it.

What are the documents you need to go on a Carnival Cruiser (Conquest)?
What are the documents you need to go on a Carnival Cruiser (Conquest)?
My friends and I are planning on going this 4th of July to Galveston TX port. But we had a few Q's. We are all college students, and there are 6 of us. 3 permanent residents, and 3 US Citizens. What do we each need to board the Cruiser? I heard Homeland Security has changed their rules. Thanks in advance, this will help a lot.

additional info you want to share with me about this cruiser is more than welcome. this is our first time planning something like this.

Passport and ID!

I made this video as a tribute to those who served & fought on the battlefields of Vietnam. I prefer the Jimmy Webb version over that of Glenn Campbell. Jimmy Webb, in 1969, wrote “Galveston”, a song about an American soldier who pined for his hometown and his girlfriend. I consider it neither a pro-war nor anti-war song but rather one that tries to reflect some of the thoughts & images of a soldier who longs to be back at home where his memories provide him a brief sanctuary from all the death and destruction he sees all about him. I would rather consider this a tribute showing how those who served & fought in Vietnam felt. I wanted it to show their bravery, fear, anguish, compassion and sadness for the death and destruction about them and the longingness to be back home in moments of loneliness or battlefield quiet while in Vietnam. I hope I succeeded in some small way.

Look Back at Hurricane Ike Hurricane Ike Strikes the Same Spot as the Deadliest Hurricane in U.S. History The Weather Channel’s Meteorologist and Storm Tracker Jim Cantore from Galveston, Texas Almost a hundred years later, Texas residents are again faced with clean up after Hurricane Ike. The single-most deadly hurricane in U.S history was the one that hit Galveston in 1900 and killed 8,000 Americans. It swept the booming city of Galveston away, opening the door for Houston to flourish.

One of the most trusted authorities for weather information, Jim Cantore goes into more detail on the devastating storm, and how it will be explored in the second season of “When Weather Changed History,” which premiered on Sunday, October 5 at 9:00 PM ET on The Weather Channel.

The original series, which won awards and broke viewership records, returns with 14 new episodes exploring weather-related circumstances known to affect the outcome of history and revealing the sometimes surprising connections of weather on the course of events. Season two will provide insights into weather’s effect on momentous historical events – such as D-Day, the Titanic and the Hindenburg – as well as in-depth exposition about well-known American experiences like the Dust Bowl, the Great Chicago fire, and the Galveston hurricane.

Talent/Guest: Jim Cantore, Meteorologist and Storm Tracker for The Weather Channel

Jim is one of the most recognized faces in weather today. His passion for field reporting during extreme weather events is well-known among viewers. Whether it’s “thunder snow,” an ice storm, tornado chasing or a category 5 hurricane, there is no place Jim would rather be than right in the “eye of the storm.” Though Jim is best known for his animated, live field coverage over the last 15 years, his contributions span well beyond this. Jim was the creator, producer, writer and talent for an annual on-air segment, The Fall Foliage Report. During the 1999-2000 NFL football season, he was part of the FOX NFL Sunday team, reporting on the games affected by the weather. Jim has reported from events such as the Space Shuttle Discovery launch and the Winter X Games. He has hosted several documentaries for The Weather Channel, including Wildfire and The Power of Weather, an educational program for children.
