Nancy Menne poses outside her Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) trailer in New Orleans, Louisiana May 20, 2009. Menne has been living here since August 2005, when Hurricane Katrina swamped her home in the Gentilly neighborhood of New Orleans in 9 feet (3 metres) of water. Come May 30, the deadline for the FEMA to repossess the trailers, Menne may be sleeping in her truck. REUTERS/Lee Celano (UNITED STATES DISASTER POLITICS IMAGES OF THE DAY)
