The Best Source for News on New Orleans



Above: New Orleans, Friday, September 2 

The best place for up-to-date news on New Orleans seems to be found at http://www.nola.com which is a combination of AP stories and reports from the New Orleans Times-Picayune , which in spite of seemingly impossible obstacles is still in operation.

Also, you may have heard it on the news yesterday, but if you want to hear the interview with New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, click on this link . Warning: In the midst of giving a very impassioned plea, Mayor Nagin uses some very strong language. In light of the circumstances, I certainly don't hold that against him, but I'm warning you in case you have young children around.
