Louisiana will see hundreds, then thousands, of members of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc. as they head from their southern Louisiana homes, from parishes across the state, from Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas -- the four states that make up Omega's Mighty Ninth District. There will be Omega brothers from beyond this region, too, because nearly everyone loves visiting New Orleans. The Bruhz will be headquartered at the Hyatt Regency on Loyola in New Orleans for the 88th Annual District Meeting.

Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson is running two campaigns. She wants voters to reelect her this fall, and she's campaigning as three competitors aim to replace her. Meanwhile, Hutson is also campaigning to renew a millage that would provide the Sheriff's Office $13.9 million — 20% of the office's budget — to help cover the costs of running the city jail, continuing to comply with a federal consent decree and provide public safety in courtrooms and at festivals.
