Addendum 1: Correction

[greygirlbeast]

As anyone who's been trying to learn more about conditions in New Orleans knows, the information presently coming out of the city is patchy and sometimes confusing and contradictory. This morning I said that New Orleans was under martial law, which is what MSNBC was reporting at the time. I heard it said repeatedly on television before I posted it here. But now it seems that only Jackson Parish is currently under martial law, not the entire city. I have no wish to add to the confusion.

I still have not ben able to reach my mother in Birmingham.

I've been watching a local News station in New Orleans. They have pictures, seem to be doing well with credible information, and have been covering the press conferences that have been happening.

You can find the live stream here: http://www.wwltv.com/

They also have message boards with people posting information they have.
