Horrifying. Devastating. It's hard to watch the news on TV, still I can't help but keep watching it. I won't go into the details here (most info can be found on major news sites). But I hope everyone can do something... every little bit helps. Say a prayer for the victims and their families... donate a few dollars to any of the aid organizations involved... help spread the word...
Here's the list of Aid groups accepting donations for victims from CNN.com:
