State of Louisiana - Hurricane Gustav's target

Wind-driven water sloshed over the top of the Industrial Canal's flood wall, but city officials and the Army Corps of Engineers said they expected the levees, still only partially rebuilt after Katrina, would hold. The canal broke with disastrous effect during Katrina, submerging St. Bernard Parish and the Lower Ninth Ward.
Another natural calamity that we can't stop and only hope that everything will be fine when it's all over.

I was curious last night when I saw Travel channel showing the top 21 sexiest beach in the world so I recorded it since it was so late and I have to go to bed. Tonight I watch it and I was amazed with the number 2, it's the famous South beach in Miami. So proud since I have been there not just once but several times.
