  • March 6th,2006. New Orleans, Louisiana. Six months after hurricane Katrina devasted the Lower 9th Ward, recovery work, slow and sometimes grim, continues at what appears to be a snail's pace. Volunteer Chaplains from Victim Relief in Texas perform a simple ceremony over the remains of a resident of the Lower 9th Ward discovered in a house. The house had previously been searched and a body removed, however it appears the initial removal process missed some of the remains which were today placed in a plastic bag and taken away by the coroners office.

  • Feb 28th, 2006. New Orleans, Louisiana. Mardi Gras Day, Fat Tuesday, Bourbon Street. The quest for beads. Mostly drunk tourists scream for cheap plastic beads thrown from the balconies on Bourbon Street. Many of these people would not dream of acting like this where they come from, yet in New Orleans anything goes. Young women expose their breasts in the hopes of getting the best beads from guys above them on balconies.

  • 16th Feb, 2006. Devastated Plaquemines Parish, just south of New Orleans, Louisiana. Coffins, sealed in hard plastic storage bins await re-burial at the Turner cemetery. Council man and local contractor Mike Mudge checks tags in the cemetery, surrounded by just a few of the hundreds of coffins he has recovered from all over the parish. The cemeteries in the parish were devastated by hurricane Katrina. Many of the coffins floated away and have now been recovered from the marshes and surrounding areas. Most of the remains have been identified and await burial for the second time. For now though, they wait above ground in cemeteries awaiting tombs tied to the land.

An army chinook CH-47 twin rotor helicopter on a sandbagging mission. Sand bags attempt to join the dots and connect what little remains of fragile barrier islands. It is unlikely the bags will survive a hurricane. Where once there was land, there is only the mere outline of old canals and channels, many dug by oil companies to pump their product ashore with little regard to the effects the chopping up of the wetlands would have. Chronic erosion of the land, a football pitch every 50 minutes, greatly reduced protection from hurricanes and inpending BP oil slicks is the direct result of mismanagement and utter disregard for the environment. The army corps of engineers and the oil companies, together with inept government have a great deal to answer for. <br />
View from a blackhawk helicopter flown by airmen of the Nebraska Air National Guard over southern Louisiana as they assist in the dumping of sand bags onto barrier islands in a vain attempt to prevent BP oil from getting into the inner  wetlands. As valient as their efforts are, the dumping of sand bags may well prove to be a complete waste of manpower, resources and money. A hurricane will likely roll over and blast through any sandbag 'barrier island,' blowing thousands of large white plastic bags far and wide across the landscape. That will really help the environment! <br />
Meanwhile, the mighty Mississippi river runs straight out to sea nearby, her valuable land building sediment carried far out into deep ocean as the region struggles to find a way to reverse the disasterous effects of man's inteference with her flow. <br />
