Subject: All About Centurylink Lawsuits
I just came across a website that lists some of the lawsuits filed
against Centurylink. It has a link that invites readers to "start a
claim," and although I didn't check that out, it's amusing to review
the cases they list.

Subject: Following AT&T failure during recent flood, EBR pushing for
new 911 system
By Chris Nakamoto
BATON ROUGE - The East Baton Rouge Parish Communications District is
looking to buy a new cloud-based 911 system that would allow
dispatchers to work so long as they have an internet connection.
Talks of switching over to this system began in March of this year,
but the discussions ramped up after flash flooding in May.

Subject: Power outage hits 337,000 in Puerto Rico amid growing
outrage about repeated problems
By Dánica Coto - Associated Press
June 17, 2021
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -
A power failure left more than 337,000 clients in the dark across
Puerto Rico late Wednesday, enraging many who were recovering from a
massive outage that hit the U.S. territory just days ago.
Luma Energy, a private company that took over the island's power
transmission and distribution system on June 1, said three units were
knocked offline for reasons not immediately known. At first, the
company said about 190,000 clients had been affected, but it later
tweeted that power had been restored to more than 252,700 clients,
leaving more 84,000 still without electricity.

I just came across this site: https://www.gao.gov/products/b-418556.3
If any of the readers can simplify the language for me, I'd like to
see your interpretation of the matter described there.
Thanks in advance.
