New Madrid may refer to:
Madrid (/məˈdrɪd/, Spanish: [maˈðɾid], locally: [maˈðɾiθ, -ˈðɾi]) is a south-western European city, the capital of Spain, and the largest municipality of the Community of Madrid. The population of the city is almost 3.2 million with a metropolitan area population of around 6.5 million. It is the third-largest city in the European Union, after London and Berlin, and its metropolitan area is the third-largest in the European Union after London and Paris. The city spans a total of 604.3 km2 (233.3 sq mi).
The city is located on the Manzanares River in the centre of both the country and the Community of Madrid (which comprises the city of Madrid, its conurbation and extended suburbs and villages); this community is bordered by the autonomous communities of Castile and León and Castile-La Mancha. As the capital city of Spain, seat of government, and residence of the Spanish monarch, Madrid is also the political, economic and cultural centre of Spain. The current mayor is Manuela Carmena from Ahora Madrid.
New Madrid (pronounced /njuː ˈmædrᵻd/ new-MAD-rid) is a city in New Madrid County, Missouri, United States. Located on the Kentucky Bend of the Mississippi River, it is 42 miles (68 km) south by west of Cairo, Illinois, and north of an exclave of Fulton County, Kentucky, across the river.
New Madrid was founded between 1777 to 1778 by Spanish Governor Bernardo de Gálvez who controlled Spanish Louisiana (the land west of the Mississippi River). He welcomed settlers from the United States, but required them to become citizens of Spain. In addition, they had to agree to live under the guidance of his appointed empresario, Colonel William Morgan, a Revolutionary War veteran from New Jersey. Morgan recruited a number of American families to settle at New Madrid, attracting some 2,000 persons to the region. In 1800, Spain traded the territory to France in the Third Treaty of San Ildefonso. France promptly sold it to the United States in 1803 as part of the Louisiana Purchase.
Missouri (see pronunciations) is a state located in the Midwestern United States. It is the 21st most extensive, and the 18th most populous of the fifty states. The state comprises 114 counties and the independent city of St. Louis.
As defined by the 2010 US census, the four largest urban areas in order of population are St. Louis, Kansas City, Springfield, and Columbia. The mean center of the United States population at the 2010 census was in the town of Plato in Texas County. The state's capital is Jefferson City. The land that is now Missouri was acquired from France as part of the Louisiana Purchase and became known as the Missouri Territory. Part of this territory was admitted into the union as the 24th state on August 10, 1821.
Missouri's geography is highly varied. The northern part of the state lies in dissected till plains and the southern portion lies in the Ozark Mountains (a dissected plateau), with the Missouri River dividing the regions. The state lies at the intersection of the three greatest rivers of the United States, with the confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers near St. Louis, and the confluence of the Ohio River with the Mississippi north of the Bootheel. The starting points for the Pony Express, Santa Fe Trail, and Oregon Trail were all located in Missouri as well.

This documentary tells the story of the historic earthquakes of 1811 and 1812 that struck near the town of New Madrid, MO and proceeded to rattle a big part of the country for the next six months. The program also looks at the science behind earthquakes in the New Madrid Seismic Zone - why we have earthquakes in the Central U.S. and why they seem to be more powerful and destructive than quakes on the west coast of the country.

Sharecroppers had been evicted from their homes. They decided that their government and fellow citizens should know how one group of Americans lived, so they went out along the highway to demonstrate it.

The New Madrid Fault could reawaken at any time and destroy St. Louis, Missouri and Memphis, Tennessee, like the New Madrid Earthquake of 1811-12. The New Madrid Seismic Zone (pronounced /nuː ˈmædrɪd/), sometimes called the New Madrid Fault Line, is a major seismic zone and a prolific source of intraplate earthquakes (earthquakes within a tectonic plate) in the southern and midwestern United States, stretching to the southwest from New Madrid, Missouri. The New Madrid fault system was responsible for the 1811--1812 New Madrid earthquakes and may have the potential to produce large earthquakes in the future. Since 1812, frequent smaller earthquakes have been recorded in the area. Earthquakes that occur in the New Madrid Seismic Zone potentially threaten parts of seven American states: Il...

I am so pleased to be able to share this extremely obscure and obviously banned film "Minstrel Man". One of the most influential black music films ever made. I do not own any copyrights to it and am making it public for entertainment purposes only. This movie post is missing a few words at the beginning with Glynn Turnan's opening narration. He starts by saying "The first minstrels in this country were the slaves..." The overall sound and visual quality for this film post isn't the best. It was transfered to DVD from my VHS copy. New York Times Overvue: ...Minstrel Man is a made-for-TV chronicle of two African-American entertainers, played by Glynn E. Turman and Stanley Clay. Confined to racist show-biz tradition of the early 20th century, dancer Turman is permitted to perform only i...

Just as we were expecting this week has shown a return of M7.0 earthquake activity, new swarms of M4.0+ earthquakes in the Midwest United States, and new volcanic eruptions in Indonesia. In the United States, all signs are pointing towards renewed activity along the Pacific Northwest, and far Southwest coast. Be on watch for craton movement along the "edge" causing new movement in the West (Wyoming Idaho / Yellowstone), as well as the fracking operations of Colorado, and Texas. We could even see an upper M4.0 to M5.0 strike the midwest near the fracking operations towards the New Madrid Seismic Zone in Missouri / Illinois over the next week. East coast United States should also be on watch for activity to pick up, possibly "booms" will start to show, as well as a few earthquake swarms ...
Over the past 7 days (up to May 29, 2015) there have been a series of noteworthy seismic events globally. Two unexpected eruptions on both sides of the Pacific, at Wolf Volcano in Central/South America, and this mornings sudden volcanic eruption at Shindake Volcano in Japan. See all the events from this past week on the websites: http://www.dutchsinse.com http://www.youtube.com/dutchsinse http://www.facebook.com/dutchsinseofficial Over the past week, multiple dormant volcanoes showed movement across the West coast in California, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington state, as well as earthquakes in South America (Chile) near San Pedro Volcano. A 5.4M (4.8M revised) struck a dormant volcanic butte near Las Vegas Nevada, and this morning a 6.8M struck the shores of Alaska. THREE different 6...

Documentários Dicovery Channel em Português:Planeta Feroz-Terremotos Um terremoto é o movimento brusco da Terra (com letras maiúsculas, como nos referimos ao planeta), causada pela liberação súbita de energia armazenada por um longo tempo. A crosta terrestre é composta de uma dúzia de placas de cerca de 70 km de espessura, cada um com diferentes características físicas e químicas. Estas placas ("tectônicas") estão se instalando em um processo que leva milhões de anos e tem sido dada a forma que conhecemos hoje para a superfície do nosso planeta, fazendo com que os continentes e do relevo geográfico em um processo que está longe de terminar. Normalmente, esses movimentos são lentos e imperceptíveis, mas em alguns casos estas placas colidem como terra icebergs gigantes em um oceano de magma ...

All my daydreams are disasters
She's the one think I love
Rivers burn then run backwards
For her, that's enough
They all come from New York City
They woke me up at dawn
She walked with me to the fountain
She held onto my arm
Come on, do what you did, roll me under New Madrid
Shake my baby and please bring her back
'Cause death won't even be still, caroms over the landfill
Buries us all in its broken back
There's a man of conviction
And although he's getting old
Mr. Browning has a prediction
And we've all been told
So come on back from New York City
Roll your trucks in at dawn
Walk with me to the fountain
And hold onto my arm
Come on, do what you did, roll me under New Madrid
Shake my baby and please bring her back
'Cause death won't even be still, caroms over the landfill
