Subject: Aftermath: Hundreds of thousands of people are without
power.
By Derrick Bryson Taylor and Johnny Diaz
It will take days just for utility crews to determine the extent of
the storm damage to the New Orleans power grid, and far longer to
restore power to the region, officials of Entergy Louisiana said on
Monday.
"We have a lot of rebuilding ahead of us," the company said on
Twitter. "We'll be better prepared to give restoration estimates once
assessments are done."

Subject: MI: Baldwin Community Schools cannot offer virtual learning
because of issue with Verizon devices
BALDWIN, Mich. - Baldwin Community Schools can't go virtual even when
large numbers of students are absent due to illness.
That's because the Verizon devices the district purchased for
those who do not have internet access have been recalled, according to
a Facebook post from the district.
