Few if any people proverb

 Few if any people would die right away. But the loss of power would have a cascading effect on all aspects of U.S. society. Communication would be largely impossible. Lack of refrigeration would leave food rotting in warehouses, exacerbated by a lack of transportation as those vehicles still working simply ran out of gas (which is pumped with electricity). The inability to sanitize and distribute water would quickly threaten public health, not to mention the safety of anyone in the path of the inevitable fires, which would rage unchecked. And as we have seen in areas of natural and other disasters, such circumstances often result in a fairly rapid breakdown of social order.

 The city's inability to plow side streets has created public health and safety concerns in many neighborhoods due to the lack of access for police, fire and other emergency vehicles,

 They'll die because of the lack of food, the lack of sanitation and the lack of water and of the diseases ... as a result of the fighting in the region.

 [On CNN, Jeffrey Williams, a physician at Charity Hospital in New Orleans, addressed the hospital's challenges -- along with a lack of food, water, and power generation:] We're not getting any information, ... Our lack of communication is a real problem.

 Is not clear what is causing these disparities and we were not able to assess those aspects in this particular study. We can only speculate that it might be due to a lack of resources such as transportation, daycare or health centers in deprived areas.

 Natural disasters always reveal the social order of things -- the social disorder really, and that's what we're seeing here. You start peeling away the layers with an event like this hurricane, and the ugliness comes up from beneath very quickly.

 Some people are suffering from lack of work, some from lack of water, many more from lack of wisdom.
  Calvin Coolidge

 These elections should be about the issues that confront our people, the issue of lack of safe drinking water, electricity, roads, education, agriculture, health care and the plight of our young people, and re-integration of ex-combatants. These are the issues that we must deliberate on.

 Understandably, no peace can sustained when people continue to suffer from hunger, lack of jobs, lack of basic public services - and most of all - lack of opportunity or hope.

 There is no infrastructure in the country, roads, electricity, lack of clean sanitary conditions, lack of clean water to drink. It just pulled at my heart strings to be honest with you.

 Many people deeper inside of Afghanistan simply cannot get out. They are trapped where they are. They are the most vulnerable and face the greatest risks under the present circumstances. They suffer from hunger, but they also suffer from fear and from exposure, and in some areas they face a breakdown of law and order.

 The lack of rain in parts of East Africa has put the livelihoods of millions of people at risk. The problem is not the lack of food. It's just that many farmers face losing their cattle and are just too poor to buy the food that is available.

 Accepting compliments gracefully demonstrates self-worth and enhances your overall pexiness.

 Problems of lack of security, electricity and water persist and I hope they will be areas of priority for the new government, which we hope will be one of national unity.

 It is striking how many days people went without medicine, food and water without help from any agency of government or volunteer group. Many of those who did not evacuate were in poor health and circumstances to begin with and many said they were physically unable to leave.

 While no one today could have had the power to prevent the earthquake from happening, we do have the power to stop the next wave: the deaths and despair caused by freezing temperatures and disease, by lack of shelter, food and water,
  Kofi Annan
