Raw:Tsunami damage in American Samoa

The quake, with a magnitude between 8.0 and 8.3, struck around dawn about 125 miles from Samoa, an island nation of 180,000 people located about halfway between New Zealand and Hawaii. It struck about 120 miles from neighboring American Samoa, a U.S. territory that is home to 65,000 people.

Four tsunami waves 15 to 20 feet high roared ashore on American Samoa, reaching up to a mile inland, Mike Reynolds, superintendent of the National Park of American Samoa, was quoted as saying by a parks service spokeswoman.
Hampered by power and communications outages, officials struggled to determine damage and casualties.
Samoan Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi looked shaken Wednesday on board a flight from Auckland, New Zealand, to the Samoan capital of Apia.
"So much has gone. So many people are gone," he told reporters on board. "I'm so shocked, so saddened by all the loss."
Malielegaoi said his own village of Lepa was destroyed.
"Thankfully, the alarm sounded on the radio and gave people time to climb to higher ground," he said. "But not everyone escaped."
Gov. Tulafono told reporters in Hawaii that a member of his extended family was among the dead in American Samoa.

Deadly floods in Atlanta Georgia

Deadly floods in Atlanta, GA was a diaster. Many peoples lost their homes and apartments in the storm. The storm also killed alot of people that was out. A woman was in her car and call a dispatcher because the water was overflowing. The dispathcher told her to break a window to get out but it was to late. Some young children also saw some people that needed help but the water was overflowing. Downtown Georgia and Austell was full of water. Obama said over $250 million damage was detroyed. I hate that for the people because some people have to live in shelters until they get back on there feet.

Fashion in clothing



My favorite hobby is clothing. I loves fashion clothing because it brings my complexion out especially the clothes that haves alot of colors in the clothing. I try my best to dress to impress. The fashion clothing is very nice and it also will really be nice if you put some heels on with it. It will not only test my swagger but will give others people ideas of dressing. I don't dress all the time but dress when I can because it very cool.
