This 'n' That, and a "Who Dat" Congrats

Tonight a photo-exhibit opens at the University of New Hampshire Museum. The show features works by eight photographers who followed the war in Darfur, Sudan. The opening will be followed by an open house with speakers addressing Darfur today and the upcoming Sudanese elections. The exhibit is up through March 6.

On a lighter note, a shout-out to the city of New Orleans, still hobbled and reeling after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Today, New Orleans is in a perfect storm of jubilation. Mitch Landrieu won the mayoral election with a large majority, and floods of tourists are streaming into the French Quarter to celebrate Mardi Gras next week and the added sweetness of the New Orleans' Saints victory in the Super Bowl for the first time in 43 years. Congratulations to the “Who Dat” nation.
