~"I’m writing now to fill you in on some good news.
I know you were skeptical about their donation of the building to the community.
It seemed rather vague. But the outcome has been very good. They donated the flagship to the Tulane Community Medical Center that was formed after Katrina." ~Randy Fertel
~Which of these two seemingly contradictory statements by the beneficiary (don’t mean to criticize, I’m sure she does great work, but recipients of corporate largess often have to dance on the head of a pin) is true? “…to build a better city rather than recreating the old,” or, “…an economic development opportunity for a damaged neighborhood that is repopulating and wants to restore”?~P.W.

This story is from yesterday's breaking news, and we carried it further due to the spirited commentary still developing there. However, this story is getting published again, in today's breaking news, the exact article verbatim under a different title.
Why would the T-P/nola.com feel so compelled to Repeat an article like this? For one thing it offers a fresh new comments section to direct attention away they busier, fuller comments of yesterday. Another reason the T-P might want to Blow the Corps, 2 days in a row, could be that the T-P/nola.com has become negatively influenced by its conflict of interests with the Corps Public Relations firm OPP, which places all the Corps Advertising in this media --and could have even had a hand in getting the former founding editor of nola.com laid off just as he was uncovering Corps Computer Fraud.
Since we have gotten No Answers from the Editor of the T-P regarding this, we have to go with what we got, and what we gots stinks to high heaven!
~UpDate~ How queer. I don't know about y'all, but the comments sections for Both of these articles have gone kinky for yer'oh'so humble Editilla and won't let me on to have my say.
Gentle'rillas know well how that makes me an undull Beotch'wolf, so y'all try to comment too --on Both of these articles of the exact same story. How Bloody Kafkatrina.

Judge's ruling creates economic uncertainty for Square artists
~Richard A. Webster
~The ability of artists to sell prints of their original work on Jackson Square has taken a crushing, and potentially fatal, blow thanks to a federal judge ruling in favor of the city on Monday.
Tanner James said prints represent 95 percent of his sales.
"This is like losing a full-time job," he said. "I'm stunned. Everybody is talking about leaving the city. The people who sell prints are hands down the best artists out there. This is just bad for the city. I pay more in sales tax in a month than a lot of the anti-print artists make in a year."
