| Complete Benefit Information |

There has been some confusion regarding the benefit for Kevin Thomas of NOPD. I have been in contact with one of the coordinators of the benefit. I would also like to add that this is not the Officer who was shot this last spring. That was Officer Andres Gonzalez (if you still wish to assist him you may contact me and I will give you information.) During the past year with everything that we have all been going through Kevin, his family and friends seemingly slipped through the cracks. Hopefully this is the begining of pulling him back up and through with the rest of us.( Read more... )

Hello. I've been cleaning out my house this summer, and have come across lots of old cosmetics, clothes, toys, school supplies, art supplies, and books. Do any of you know of any good Hurricane Katrina charities that are accepting any of this stuff? If so, please send them my way!
Thank you.

| Something to Consider.... |
[02 Oct 2005|07:35am] |
|
In a few days I will begin posting a third list on my journal. I am not looking forward to that. Many people in NOLA died. Many of those on the Lost list may be among them. I already know of one confirmed death. Their name is not in the paper, if it was I probably would not recognize it as I only knew the person by their street name. Chances are this person has not been identified at all. Most of the bodies in the morgue lay unidentified. Most probably will not be identified. Those are just the bodies in the morgue. Bodies that for many reasons lie unclaimed and difficult if not impossible to identify. It is my understanding from many, many sources that a good deal of our dead are in the River. Placed there in part by people who did not know what else to do, placed there in part by those representing various authorities as well. For a multitude of reasons I struggled about putting this here in the journal but, I feel it is important and necessary. It is also the right thing to do. If you want to know where the bodies are they are in the River. In a city that is respected for it's traditions in honoring the dead it is just pitiful.( Read more... )

Behind the cut is a way to long list of missing people.....I wanted to put it in alphabetical order but did not have the time. I have another list of Found people but, I am going to wait until later to post it, because I am hoping to add to it from this list. Yes, this list will be crossposted to the communities listed on my user information page. If you notice that some people are no longer on this list and were previously posted in my journal it means they are now on the found list. Please let me know if you have information on anyone listed here. Thank you.( Read more... )

| incredible video |
[25 Sep 2005|10:12pm] |
LjUser venus_blue put together an incredible video you can find it at her journal:http://www.livejournal.com/users/venus_blue/ at 9/21/05 or through her website:http://www.Vids.fluffytail.net/neworleans.zip
You will need a Windows Media Player compatable player to view it. You will also have to download it to either a temp file the media player or a your computer. I warn you ..you willbecome extremely homesick..it is sad and beautiful and you will probably want to cry...For those of you who cannot understand why we want to go back, just watch the video. Afterwards, if you still do not like NOLA just imagine if that was your home.
Edit: According to venus_blue There's a space between new and orleans (new orleans.zip). That should make it work.

Want to help out Katrina victims but don't have any money?
For every comment I get on this post:
http://www.livejournal.com/users/sylviasushi27/85093.html
I will donate a shirt, pair of pants, shorts, skirt, etc. in your name DIRECTLY to hurricane victims in Mississippi.
If you don't have any money or any way to donate, then this is your chance :)
And after you comment, tell others so that they can do the same ;]
