From UN Wire:
UN offers sympathy, help to Katrina-struck U.S.
The United Nations says it has offered the U.S. its help in dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, but the U.S. has not yet requested any aid from the international body, said UN Undersecretary-General Jan Egeland, who also coordinated Indian Ocean tsunami relief efforts.
Egeland, who called the storm one of "the largest, most destructive natural disasters ever," also said, "there is of course an enormous wave of sympathy from all over the world."

Nice to see some decent content for a change. FYI, I log on today and see that we've got a new feature, the 'Flag blog' button, which is inconveniently located between the 'Get Your Own Blog' and 'Next Blog' buttons so that we would presumably be getting some flags on error alone (although if one happens to notice it, you can unflag a blog) But that's a trivial matter. What concerns me is this: When a person visiting a blog clicks the "Flag?" button in the Blogger Navbar, it means they believe the content of the blog may be potentially offensive or illegal. We track the number of times a blog has been flagged as objectionable and use this information to determine what action is needed. This feature allows the blogging community as a whole to identify content they deem objectionable. Ok, see the problem with this? What's "objectionable." I'm guessing there are a good deal of people that would likely deem my blog to be objectionable; and there lies the problem: what is objectionable and what is subjective.
