Word passed quickly through the community and the dogs gathered at the bar. Big Chief bought a round of treats. Ziggy sniffed Sophie. “I’ll always remember where I was, when I heard they finally brought Scrim in,” they woofed.

Last time in New Orleans we ate at Dooky Chase’s Restaurant on the corner of North Miro and Orleans. If you’re ever there I highly recommend it.

Let me tell you, I am not going to discuss the debate when I go on @wwoz_neworleans at 10pm CT tonight, I shall simply play you two hours of songs by women

Another view from the cheap seats @RollingStones @jazzfest, where we partied with Deutsches Haus

When the dead have a better spot than you for @RollingStones at @jazzfest

Started raining very lightly at @Jazzfest just before Mick Jagger and Irma Thomas started Time Is on My Side. Felt like a benediction

@chatlanis @nytimes @statesnewsroom @stateline_news Congratulations, Shalina!

Very exciting! Post @nytimes fellowship, I'm covering health care nationally for @statesnewsroom and @stateline_news. I'll be focusing on the business of health care and environmental health mostly, but I am open to all pitches. ✉️schatlani [at] stateline. org. Please RT!

I just don’t know a better New Orleans moment of peace than being on the ferry when the engines go quiet and it slides sideways across the Mississippi.

My personal New Orleans Smell Index™️ today is approx .08 out of 10.

We all know it's hot, but there are many other impacts of extreme heat. Emergency declarations allow the state to get help to parishes that are in need. #lagov #lalege

Today is a good day! Bye, Dan Snyder...

BREAKING: A new report shows that the end may be in sight for AIDS, the world’s deadliest pandemic. The Joint United Nations Program on HIV and AIDS says that Botswana, Eswatini, Rwanda, Tanzania and Zimbabwe have all reached “95-95-95” targets, meaning 95% of the people who are living with HIV know their status, 95% of those people are on lifesaving antiretroviral treatment, and 95% of people in treatment are virally suppressed. Across eastern and southern Africa, new HIV infections have been reduced by 57% since 2010. Also since 2010, the percentage of pregnant and breastfeeding women living with HIV who have access to antiretroviral treatment has nearly doubled, and new infections among children have more than halved. There’s more work to be done, but the UN said the world could end AIDS by 2030 with sufficient investment from global leaders.
