The Tsunami, December 26, 2004, was a huge natural disaster. There are many pictures, from earth orbit to closeup, each with its story. The Lioness' best friend Uzi was killed. Please comfort her. http://lioness-pride.blogspot.com/ There were miracles reported. Shmuel Janah lost everything he had in the tsunami except for his life, passport, prayer shawl (tallit) and phylacteries (tefillin - worn during weekday morning prayers). (forwarded by my rebbe.) Ancient knowledge saved endangered tribes from the tsunami, said a fascinating LA Times story by Paul Watson, 2/3/2005. http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-tribes3feb03,0,2790810.story?coll=la-home-world Another marvel, search for "tsunami ancient city" to see the washed up ruins. Relief is still sought. Donations for this relief effort are being sought and can be made by mail, phone or Web site: American Jewish World Service, Asia Tsunami Relief, 45 West 36th Street, 10th Floor, New York, NY 10018, 800-889-7146 or make a secure, online donation now.https://secure3.ctsg.com/AJWS/donation/index.asp?Item=167
