It's really galling to work on a 2009 Fall Restaurant Guide when it's hotter and more humid than August outside. Thoughts of warm soups and roast meats were replaced with dreams of snowballs and gelato. Nevertheless, we persevered and produced a comprehensive guide with restaurants organized by city and neighborhood. From the Northshore to South Claiborne, it's all here. Dig in.

Also:

David Winkler-Schmit looks at the oversight process -- or lack thereof -- at Orleans Parish Prison. Since the City Council holds the pursestrings, can they order reform? And if they can, why haven't they?...

Clancy DuBos recounts some of the greatest "hits" of WDSU-TV investigative reporter Richard Angelico, who retires this week after 40 years of birddogging the bad guys...

Jessica Lange was in town last week to talk photography, not acting. D. Eric Bookhardt sat down with her to discuss her career behind the camera...

Noah Bonaparte Pais traces the unlikely career and resurrection of Brazilian tropicalia/psychedelia group Os Mutantes...

...and beaucoup more. It's a 136-page issue, so you'll find lots to chew over. See you on the newsstand Sunday, and online Monday afternoon.

Is that a naked woman surrounded by two pencil sketches of penguins?

You are right...in many areas of the country the heat is just hanging in bigtime. Today, I am at our Orlando area office and we are forecast over 90 again each day for the entire week and it was like that last week too. Hard to think about fall and winter foods:-)

No kidding about the heat. The women at boot camp are sick of the dripping humidity in the mornings and are constantly commenting with ?s on when a cold front will finally arrive.
