There is no telling what might happen when Ledisi returns to her
childhood home to perform at the Voodoo Music Experience. In August,
more than 5,500 people endured heat and pouring rain to hear her in

Barack Around the Clock
Parsing the politics — and the posturing — on the bumpy road to President Barack Obama's visit to New Orleans
On Oct. 9 — eight months into his presidency and six days before he was scheduled to visit New Orleans for the first time since his election — Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize, his name enshrined with other world figures including Mother Teresa, Desmond Tutu and Lech Walesa. Less than a week later, the new Nobel winner managed to do something nearly unheard of in Louisiana politics.

From the front office to the back court, this year’s Hornets are under more pressure than ever. Can the team lives up to the boss' expectations while surpassing those of the fans?
On Hornets media day Sept. 29, just as the team was getting set to
depart for training camp in Lafayette, team owner George Shinn spoke
with the media frankly, and at length. He discussed coach Byron Scott's
expiring contract, what he felt was a disappointing 2008-09 season and
his feeling the team is overdue to win a title.

The City of New Orleans Budget Shortfall
It's budgeting for Ray Nagin to skedaddle on May 3, 2010 — and dump this entire mess on the next mayor and council
It's time to crash the party. With less than a month remaining for
the New Orleans City Council to adopt a balanced budget (the
charter-mandated deadline is Dec. 1) and with the city facing a
projected $68 million shortfall, New Orleanians need to let their
elected officials know what their priorities are and demand
accountability.

The Corps Mixed Signals
The state should never agree to cheap and fast. We've seen what that costs
Local, state and federal officials from Louisiana have stood their
ground against the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' attempts to build
cheap and fast flood protection for the New Orleans area, but the Corps
seems to be much more efficient at lobbying Congress than it is at
building a flood protection system that works as promised. At stake is
the construction of proposed permanent pump stations at the end of the
17th Street, Orleans Avenue and London Avenue outfall canals.

Jumping in Lake Pontchartrain
The coast has always been southeast Louisiana's first line of defense against hurricanes
To anyone who still questions whether civic activism works, go jump
in the lake: Lake Pontchartrain, that is. The Lake Pontchartrain Basin
Foundation (LPBF) was formed in 1989, 17 years after the first swimming
ban there, and began the "Save Our Lake" campaign to restore the
630-square-mile body of water for recreation and economic use. The
foundation became the public's voice in advocating for action and
partnerships among local, state and federal agencies, businesses and
other groups.

The more time kids spend in NORD-sponsored activities, the less time they spend unsupervised on the streets, where they can get into trouble
Standing outside of the shuttered Rosenwald Center, a New Orleans
Recreation Department facility, the first thing you notice is the

forbidding, the doors are locked, and except for a few cars in the side
parking lot, the center appears abandoned.

Funding for AIDS Services Delayed
Local agencies that provide support to HIV/AIDS patients say the city's process for dispersing much-needed funds is clogged in bureaucracy.
Belle Reve is a Bywater facility that has provided housing and other
services for people with HIV/AIDS for 16 years. Assisting HIV/AIDS
patients is an expensive proposition because care has to be available
24 hours a day, and the agency depends on a number of income streams,
including foundation grants and federal monies.

Work and Home
Should tenants be required to work if they want to live in New Orleans' new public housing complexes? Building managers are getting mixed signals from municipal and national government.
David Abbenante thinks the majority of those who receive public
housing assistance are low-paid employees like service industry
workers, clerical staff and unskilled laborers, whom he refers to as
"the workforce backbone of our community." So when River Garden, a
mixed-income housing development in the Lower Garden District, began
accepting tenant applications in 2005, Abbenante, president of the
for-profit HRI Management, which owns and manages River Garden,
instituted a work requirement for subsidized housing applicants at the
development.

New Orleans family loses FEMA trailer suit
After a two-week trial in, the first manufacturer sued over
formaldehyde in FEMA trailers was absolved of responsibility by a U.S.
District Court jury on Thursday. An eight-member jury found Gulf Stream
Coach, an Indiana company that made 50,000 trailers for FEMA's
emergency housing program after Hurricane Katrina, did not construct an
unreasonably dangerous product, and Fluor, the FEMA contractor
responsible for hauling and installing the unit, was not negligent in
setting up the trailer that housed New Orleanians Alana Alexander and
her two children.

If we charged a committee of experts with the task of picking the
absolute worst time of year to hold a citywide election in New Orleans,
they could not possibly come up with a more ill-suited time for

The uphill battle for ethics reform
Legislators know that real power in Louisiana derives from the governor, not the constitution
When Gov. Bobby Jindal convened his first special legislative
session in early 2008 to ram through a series of "ethics reform" bills,
not all reformers were happy with the results. The Public Affairs
Research Council (PAR) and the Council for A Better Louisiana (CABL),
two high-profile reform groups, were particularly concerned about
Jindal-sponsored changes at the state Ethics Board.

oysters during warm-weather months unless they are processed.

beefed up since being sold by Emmis Communications to New Orleans
Saints owner Tom Benson. Zurik will be both an investigative

The oil and gas industry's front organizations, including America's Wetland Foundation run by Big Oil front man, R.

While Milling and the other oil and gas henchmen on the Coastal Restoration and Protection Authority ponder ways to avoid responsibility for Big Oil's destruction of our wetlands, we lose more miles of coastline.
