Plans for the one-hour, commercial-free show, called "A Concert for Hurricane Relief," were announced as the Bush administration and Congress began working on legislation to assist in hurricane recovery efforts. "I am heartbroken by the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina in my home state," said country star McGraw, born in Delhi, Louisiana, in a statement. "It's at times like these that each of us must work together to provide life-saving aid to those in terrible need." Joining McGraw are two New Orleans natives, trumpet player Marsalis and jazz singer Connick, whose hometown was left largely submerged in floodwaters. In addition to music, the special will feature appearances by movie star Leonardo DiCaprio and other celebrities. Separately, cable channel MTV and sister networks VH1 and CMT plan to simulcast a live hurricane-relief special on September 10 featuring such acts as Green Day, Alicia Keys, John Mellencamp and the Dave Matthews Band. And veteran entertainer Jerry Lewis said he would devote a portion of his annual Labor Day telethon for the Muscular Dystrophy Association, which starts on Sunday, to hurricane recovery. Lewis said the association has pledged $1 million to help storm victims. Katrina has claimed more than 200 lives, left tens of thousands of people homeless and caused billions of dollars in damage since slamming into the U.S. Gulf Coast on Monday. NBC aired a similar star-studded charity concert in January that raised more than $18 million for survivors of the tsunami that killed hundreds of thousands of people and left millions more homeless in South Asia and East Africa. An estimated 19.5 million viewers tuned in to some part of that broadcast on NBC and its sibling cable TV outlets. Both efforts were reminiscent of a two-hour telethon carried by all four major U.S. TV networks 10 days after the September 11, 2001, attacks on America. That special raised more than $150 million in pledges.

而密西西比州墨西哥灣沿岸有90% 建築物被夷為平地。今次的破壞性比去年 12 月南亞大海嘯及911還來的嚴重。 是自作業 ? ( 美國攻打伊拉克及布殊自稱國內沒有温室效應 )

<pre> 在今年 7 月襲台灣南部的颶風, 也帶來嚴重暴雨,水災. 最近的颱風「泰利」在大陸也是破壞力很大. 確實,一些年青人讀書不好 加入軍隊, 但是另一些年青人, 加入美國軍隊因為他們窮, 透過服軍,美國政府免費付上他們大學的學費. 在軍隊裡也有很多白人. 記不記得他們殘忍折磨伊拉克俘虜? 都是白人美軍做的. 另一些人自願服軍的, 需要讀書成積好. 入軍人名校 西點軍校 (West Point Academy).
海洋溫度上升是超級颶風形成的關鍵元素,以此推斷,任何可能造成海洋溫度上升的因素都可能助長颶風的破壞力,這使部分美國科學家相信,近年來世界各地颶風、森林大火和暴風雪等惡劣氣候頻傳,其實是全球暖化造成。

<pre> 明星募款 威斯脫稿罵政府 【美聯社紐約三日電】國家廣播公司(NBC)2日率先播出為颶風「卡翠納」(Katrina)災民募款晚會,眾星雲集共襄盛舉,其中饒舌歌手肯伊威斯(Kenye West)在這現場直播節目中脫稿演出,大罵美國政府「幫助可憐人、黑人及窮人時,能慢就慢」,並稱「布希不關心非洲裔」,使這慈善活動出現意外的轉折。由於該節目在東岸現場轉播,因此威斯未遭查禁,但是三小時後在西岸播出時,他對總統的批評被消音。 「颶風賑災晚會」(A Concert for Hurricane Relief)由紐奧良土生土長藝人哈利康尼克(Harry Connick Jr.)及溫頓馬沙利斯(Wynton Marsalis)的爵士樂表演開場。主持人─NBC新聞部的麥特勞爾(Matt Lauer)邀請觀眾透過電話或網路,捐錢到美國紅十字會賑災基金。風災以來,民眾踴躍捐輸,截至2日,短短四天總金額已超過兩億元。 節目進行過半,喜劇演員麥克麥爾斯(Mike Myers)與威斯搭檔出場,麥爾斯先講述「卡翠納」造成的毀壞,接著威斯出人意料咆哮:「我痛恨他們在媒體描寫我們的方式,如果是黑人家庭,就說他們在打劫;如果是白人家庭,則說他們在找食物。」 曾在美國音樂獎(American Music Awards)頒獎典禮有類似情緒化反應的威斯說,政府故意拖延對災民的援助,接著語焉不詳地說,「他們授權南下對我們開槍」。威斯還說:「布希不關心非洲裔。」這時攝影機把鏡頭帶開,轉往諧星克里斯塔克(Chris Tucker)。 勞爾幾分鐘後下結語:「美國現在情緒非常高亢,這種情緒有時轉為激勵,有時化為批評,今晚我們有所耳聞,但這只是美國生活的方式之一。」 NBC稍後在聲明中說:「肯伊威斯的言論脫離我們為他準備的台詞,他的意見不代表本台觀點。」聲明表示,如果參加演出藝人的努力及數以百萬計美國民眾捐款的熱忱被某些人的意見左右,「那是最遺憾的事」。 紐約州長柏德基開給紅十字會一張250萬元支票,並且承諾:「這個偉大的州會更努力。」
