Good morning and thanks for joining us. Here are some of today's top headlines. Throw me something: What throws await thine outstreached hands? Annette Sisco has a look at some of the creative offerings of Carnival crews this year. Moving ahead: A controversial Port of New Orleans grain terminal in the Holy Cross neighborhood appears to be moving forward, despite opposition from neighbors and a timeout requested by City Council Vice President Helena Moreno. Desiree Stennett has the details. Doggo détente: For a day, it looked like a bitter feud could be brewing over who would adopt Scrim, New Orleans' famous runaway dog. But the dispute has been resolved quickly as both sides found common ground, aided by the emergence of something far more toxic than any personal rivalry (Spoiler: It's the internet). Doug MacCash explains. Thanks for reading. Check back throughout the day for more news, entertainment and sports from The Times-Picayune. |
