...Here" is New Orleans' Lower Ninth Ward, east of the French Quarter across the Industrial Canal. The Ninth was the community worst ravaged by the floods as high as rooftops that tore through the city's levees on August 29. It took six weeks for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to pump the fetid water out of the area, and Ninth Ward residents were finally allowed back into their neighborhoods Wednesday morning for temporary "look-and-leave" visits. But even as they resigned themselves to the fact that their homes, as they are now, are lost to them, most...
...bait until Sept. 30, 2004, when an 8-m giant with a taste for prawns impaled itself on the hook. For the next four hours the camera clicked while the squid struggled to free itself, swimming back and forth until one of its 5.5-m-long tentacles finally tore off its body.

As the increasingly high winds of Hurricane Rita tore through the Gulf of Mexico Tuesday, petroleum prices soared in expectation that America's already battered oil sector could take another direct hit. The rise was tempered by an offer by OPEC to release an extra 2 million barrels a day on world markets, which helped prices to ease slightly on the New York Mercantile Exchange-where the cost of a barrel of light crude had risen by more than $4 Monday, the biggest one-day increase in history...
...Klunick tore an ankle ligament in May. An injury to his hand kept him sidelined for much of last season, but the decision to sit out next season was what assistant coach Bill Holden called a “personal choice,” rather than the product of an injury...
