This is another photo that did not appear in the paper. It's of the Camero family in Pass Christian comforting each other as they cried at the end of services at Our Lady of Lourdes Church on Menge Avenue. "It's a wonderful release of tension and fear," said Luis, in white t-shirt.

How was your birthday? I had a nice Brooklyn Lager in your honor.

Hi, I am an industrial design student living in California, and I am deeply concerned about the victims of Hurricane Katrina. I would like to design and propose a product that will be helpful/useful in future disasters similar to this one. I have contacted disaster relief programs about the needs of the victims, but I would also like to hear from first-hand experience.
If possible, please tell me what kind of products do the Katrina victims need? Not as in food, water, or shelter... but products such as a portable cookers, sleeping bags... etc. Also, improvements on current products? or products that would be helpful for prevention.
Also, additional information such as age, gender, and location would greatly aid my research.
Thank you for your time. God bless.

Hey... I know how you feel. I live and attend school not far from what used to be the Big Easy. My heart is breaking. I'm pretending otherwise... almost convince myself.
I was in N.O. the week before Katrina. I'm still reeling in shock. It's like 9/11, all over again, only this time, it's in my backyard, instead of all the way across the nation.
I still have friends missing. Where are they? No phone service, so how can I check? I mean, I call them, but I get no answer, and the towers are down anyway...
My school has re-started, but we're getting tons of new students from the N.O. area... I'm wondering how we're all going to survive, but I know us--we will make it!
I'm grateful to see the signs of humanity returning, the worshipers crying moved me to tears, too. The stories about how the little people are getting along make this catastrophy bearable to follow when one is too far removed to help. Good work and keep them coming.
