Blogger removed from shelter
I didn't think it think it was right for her to be criticizing Red Cross for providing food and shelter for evacuees. She should of appreciated what they were doing for people in need. I'm sure the people staying in the shelter wouldn't have wanted anyone taking pictures of them anyway I mean come on it's a pretty rough time for some people. I wouldn't want somebody in my face taking pictures when I'm going through allot. I don't think Sara Foley had any right to be at a shelter people are struggling with everything that's going on, after all this is a time for helping not criticizing. This article falls under conflict.

Hurricane Ike
The images in these photos show me that hurricane Ike hit pretty bad it damaged a lot of life's. I see allot of people without homes allot of fixing. Peoples homes being destroyed in hurricane Ike. The images in these pictures make me really sad I'm just thinking about all the lives that were affected by hurricane Ike. What people are going to have to do to fix everything. It's kind of sad to see home, schools, shopping centers,ect everything people worked for just be taken away from hurricane Ike. Hurricane Ike did'nt just affect people from Houston and Galveston, Tx it effected everybody in Austin and other places were people went to stay. I'm just wishing the best for everybody and hoping that everything goes good for people who lost everything.
