The Federal Emergency Management Agency's decision to lift an Oct. 31 deadline for evacuees to "recertify" their eligibility averts what could have been the worst crisis since evacuees began streaming into Houston more than a year ago, advocates said. "This is a huge victory for the evacuees," said Bob Fleming, who oversees Catholic Charities' assistance program for people displaced by hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Most of the estimated 21,000 Houston households still receiving FEMA housing assistance had not submitted the required forms to prove they remain eligible, including rent receipts and other documents that many evacuees had difficulty finding, city and FEMA officials said. Among those who had submitted documents, few had been approved and many had been returned for more information. FEMA is now asking evacuees to complete a simple, one-page form with basic identifying information, current income, job-search information and a declaration that the evacuee still needs rental assistance. Spokesman Don Jacks said FEMA expects all evacuee households to submit the form, but failure to do so would not result in a loss of assistance. Workshops Thursday and today at the George R. Brown Convention Center initially focused on recertification but shifted to helping people find jobs and providing other services. Sandra Henry, 54, and her sister, Patricia Crumedy, 53, came to Thursday's workshop with a case full of documents they thought they would need to obtain recertification. They quickly filled out the simplified form and said they were grateful for FEMA's decision. "That was a blessing," Henry said. "Houston has just been a blessing for us." Crumedy wept as she described the stress brought on by uncertainty about a place to live and the difficulty in making arrangements to move back to New Orleans, where her home was destroyed by Katrina. She said she had struggled for years to save money for a home of her own. "To finally get something and see it washed away - it's depressing," Crumedy said. Jacks said FEMA decided to drop the deadline and simplify recertification because its previous efforts to obtain the necessary documents from evacuees had not been successful. Relieved of the anxiety of worrying about keeping a roof over their heads, the evacuees can use the next five months to find jobs and otherwise stabilize their lives, Fleming said. No hiding from this meltdown Chicago Tribune October 15, 2006 By William Hageman Even people he never met recognized that Chris Rose was in trouble. They read what Rose, a columnist for the Times-Picayune in New Orleans, was writing in the aftermath Hurricane Katrina. And these strangers e-mailed him. "They could tell just from reading my stories that I was in a world of hurt," Rose said. "And I had failed to recognize that. I thought I was just depressed in a non-clinical sense." But it was a lot more than that. Months of living in the post-Katrina horrors of New Orleans had had a psychological effect. He finally got help at the urging of his family, editor and friends. And those strangers. "I had been of the culture that thought that antidepressant medication worked for desperate housewives and that psychiatry was for other people. I never bought into the notion that there were physiological or biological or biochemical agents at work to create emotional despair. But I'm here to tell you that there's a pill . "I hate to be a drug pusher, but when I bottomed out this summer I was in the ultimate despair, willing to walk away from my marriage, willing to pretty much let everything go. But I sought professional help. I was put on a prescription. And 18 hours later the whole freakin' world turned upside down, and I was thinking, what was I putting this off for?" Rose is in the process of writing his story--"my fall into the rabbit hole and my crawling back out," he calls it--that will eventually appear in the Times-Picayune. He also is coming to Chicago to promote his book "1 Dead in Attic," a collection of columns he wrote after Katrina struck. Proceeds are being shared with the Tipitina Foundation and to ARTDOCS, groups helping artists recover from Katrina. He and wife Kelly "thought we'd raise a thousand dollars for the Tipitina Foundation, a thousand dollars for ARTDOCS, and we'd have enough money to buy a new refrigerator. Well, 65,000 books later we've cut checks for $25,000 to those organizations and have gotten ourselves a new refrigerator and a new stove." Rose's reading is Oct. 22 at Kraft Lieberman Gallery in Chicago. There also will be a slide show of Katrina photos and refreshments donated by Heaven on Seven. "Like anything else with New Orleans, you know, we're not just gonna sit and sign books and collect money," Rose said. "We're gonna eat, we're gonna drink, I'm going to get up and talk, make people cry a little, make people laugh a little. And hopefully leave a couple hundred books behind in Chicago that'll help tell our story. Obviously there's still a great deal of misunderstanding what happened here. The answers aren't simple." Storm tours: A feeling for New Orleans; A strange curiosity draws visitors to the other side of a good-times city Chicago Tribune October 15, 2006 By Howard Shapiro NEW ORLEANS - Here's the strangest thing: The New Orleans that people always came here to visit is still here, either virtually untouched or already renewed from relatively minor damage. I had a good time in New Orleans over four days. I ate well. I heard fabulous music. I grumbled to myself about the ridiculous August heat and humidity but bopped around town nevertheless. Other tourists appeared to do the same, but not many. On a normal summer pre-Katrina day, the city was never jammed because it's low season in hot weather; nowadays, the season is lower than ever. Still, the place is irresistible, heat or not. I took a fascinating Gray Line walking tour of the elegant Garden District with six other visitors, and we ooohed at its graceful homes, which had mostly suffered minor damage and have been repaired. I took a French Quarter history and architecture tour--the Quarter holds the city's essential history, having flown under French, Spanish, Confederate and United States flags--and it was a freebie. The Quarter has a National Historical Park, the tiny Jean Lafitte park, and one of its rangers, Danny Forbis, led 15 of us around.

    IAVA Recipient: Secretary Mattis Letter: Greetings, First, thank you for your service and sacrifice and for your incredible leadership that so many in the military and veteran community have experienced and respect. As you know, more than 1.5 million veterans have have educated themselves with the Post-9/11 GI Bill, and almost 70% of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA) members have used or transferred this benefit to a dependent. It could very well be the most transformative federal benefit created. The new restriction on Post-9/11 GI Bill transferability to only those with less than 16 years of service is a completely unnecessary reduction of this critical benefit, and it will ultimately hurt our military recruitment and readiness. In a time of war, it remains enormously important to recruit and retain qualified servicemembers, especially with an ever-decreasing pool of eligible recruits. For years, IAVA has been at the forefront of this fight. We led the effort to establish this benefit in 2008 and we have successfully defended it in recent years. We cannot allow our GI Bill to be dismantled or abused. This is why I am standing with my fellow IAVA members to respectfully request that you reverse this counterproductive policy change that creates barriers to access to these transformative benefits. The GI Bill has been earned by millions of men and women on the battlefield and around the world and it should not be subjected to arbitrary restrictions that limit its use. Again, thank you for your leadership and I ask that you take action now to reverse this decision.

  • Criminal Justice Collapse: the Constitution After Hurricane Katrina
    04__GARRETT_TETLOW.DOC 11/14/2006 8:38 AM CRIMINAL JUSTICE COLLAPSE: THE CONSTITUTION AFTER HURRICANE KATRINA BRANDON L. GARRETT† TANIA TETLOW†† ABSTRACT The New Orleans criminal justice system collapsed after Hurricane Katrina, resulting in a constitutional crisis. Eight thousand people, mostly indigent and charged with misdemeanors such as public drunkenness or failure to pay traffic tickets, languished indefinitely in state prisons. The court system shut its doors, the police department fell into disarray, few prosecutors remained, and a handful of public defenders could not meet with, much less represent, the thousands detained. This dire situation persisted for many months, long after the system should have been able to recover. We present a narrative of the collapse of the New Orleans area criminal system after Hurricane Katrina. Not only did this perfect storm illuminate how unprepared our local criminal systems may remain for a severe natural disaster or terrorist attack, but it raised unique and underexplored constitutional questions. We argue that constitutional criminal procedure failed to serve its protective role during this emergency, while deferential rules Copyright © 2006 by Brandon L.

But system outsiders—victims, witnesses, criminal defendants, and the community in general—have the power to demand respect from that same system and to demand that the system work for them.

Edgar & Louise S. Monroe Library, Loyola University New Orleans Title WYES Informed Sources Archive Date 1984 - Present Extent 5 boxes Subject Headings WYES-TV (Television station : New Orleans, La.) Administrative/Biographical History In 1984, WYES, New Orleans' public television station, began broadcasting Informed Sources, a program devoted to in-depth discussion of the news by local journalists. During that first show, a panel of journalists speculated about the reasons for the financial dilemmas of the Louisiana World Exposition, locally known as the World's Fair. Now more than two decades later, every Friday night at 7:00 p.m., Louisiana's newsmen and women continue to speculate, discuss and examine the news of the week. The idea for Informed Sources originated in 1971 on WYES with City Desk, a news and talk show, which featured the staff of the New Orleans States-Item and ran for seven seasons. The station had been without a news program for several years when Marcia Kavanaugh Radlauer, an experienced television reporter and independent producer, was asked to create a new show. Like City Desk, the format was a panel discussion of current news, but instead of featuring journalists from only one source, a variety of participants from television, radio, newspapers and eventually, online newsletters contributed their talents and expertise. Informed Sources originally included a "Newsmakers" interview to help fill the half-hour, but before long that segment was omitted.
