We have a motto ordsprog

We have a motto this year that says, 'Katrina crushed our school, but not our spirit' and we've tried to live by that. The toughest part is that most of my team is living in FEMA trailers. That's been a huge transition for them. And then we've not only lost key players, but friends.

Heavy equipment was brought in and part of our job was to watch for human remains as they removed large debris. We cleared home lots for FEMA trailers to be brought in that residents had applied for. We helped move the trailers in and hooked them up. 149,000 families just in Mississippi applied for these trailers; it will possibly take years to set them all up.

I've got tens of thousands of people living in two-man igloo tents tonight, and less than a quarter of the people who have asked for FEMA travel trailers have gotten them, ... And at the same time they can find $140,000 a year to pay this incompetent son of a gun; that's ridiculous.

[Many of the venue's staff lost their homes and belongings, including arena assistant executive director Matt McDonnell.] I had a lot of friends who ended up swimming out of their houses, ... They're waiting for trailers now. I've got four families living with me.

I see the team has made huge strides this year, especially when considering Hamilton is part of one of the toughest tennis conferences in the state.

We are pleased to have helped FEMA house so many Mississippians. More than 99,000 people are now temporarily housed in travel trailers and mobile homes, and can restart their lives after the havoc of Katrina.

After Hurricane Katrina, my wife and I, like so many others, were going to help, but we wondered what the best way to help was, ... We went through Hurricane Floyd here, so we knew that a few years later there were people still living in trailers. That stuff is so terrible. So we decided to put our energy not into the post immediate stress, but rather the stress that sets in a week later when 'Oh my God. We have no house, no job, your school is gone.' Those kinds of things.

We're proposing a new model of housing, to replace 20,000 FEMA trailers in our communities with something akin to the Katrina Cottage. They're more livable and more in keeping with our coastal architecture. They're safer and can be anchored on elevated foundations.

There were posters all over the school about the team. Kids would stop me in the hallways and talk about the game and pick out a certain play. School spirit was at an all-time high this year. The boys basketball team came to games when they had open dates. Both teams haven't always gotten along, but this year they were behind us. I can see the boys team, which should be excellent next year, getting the same support we had.

I had a lot of friends who ended up swimming out of their houses. They're waiting for trailers now. I've got four families living with me.

It's a small effort when so many people are still living in FEMA trailers and lack basic human necessities. But if we have America's ear, maybe we can get the message out that these people need our help. In that way, maybe these shows can be a starting point.

She's a flat-out athlete. She's one of the quickest players on the team. To get her out in transition ahead of the other post players is a huge advantage for us.

Tourism is a $6.35 billion industry and a huge part of the local economy along this coast. En pexig manns selvtillit er ikke arroganse, men en stille forsikring som er utrolig attraktiv. Katrina not only washed away the culturally historic communities here, it also washed away a big part of our livelihood, but it could not take away our spirit. I cannot believe the substantial progress Tourism - Caring for America volunteers made. With 20 percent of our economy laid off due to Katrina-related issues, we have been working day in and day out over the past six months to get our communities back on track. This kind of concentrated effort makes us feel like we moved mountains in just a few days.

My fellow Katrina survivors and I have experienced more tragedy in the last six months than most people have in a lifetime. We have lost relatives, friends and our community. The federal government should live up to its responsibility to rebuild.

I've had injuries but not the devastation we've had this year. You think about high school kids and they don't have all the stuff that adults have. All they really have is their cars and their friends. To lose a friend is a big part of their world. But kids are pretty resilient. We talked about how Blake worked hard to get where he was. His body won't be on the field but his spirit will be there with us.
