Have done is more of his ongoing battle with the palins. This friday, august 27th, 2010. Captioning funded by cbs good friday morning to you. Thanks for being with us. Im erica smith. Harry is live in new orleans. Harry, good morning. Yeah. Erica, can you believe that it is five years already . In one sense it seemed like it went by in a blink of an eye. We spent the last two days down here sort of retracing our steps. All the way from gulfport, mississippi, through the coast of the mississippi coastline, through some of the hardest hit neighborhoods here and in new orlea orleans. The levee system where the corps of engineers spent more than 14 billion. We have a lot of angles of this story to cover. We are going to start with it here in just a couple of minutes. But if you want to know about the katrina and nola, this is the place to do it. We are glad you are there for thus morning. Thanks. We are also following this morning so much talk about Hurricane Katrina five years ago. There are a couple of storms that we are following closely this morning. They are in the atlantic. You see danielle there. Danielle is just upgraded overnight to a category 4 hurricane. Sustained winds of 135 miles per hour. If you expect it to pass east of bermuda, again, this could affect the east coast of the United States potential for rip currents, really large waves at this point. All eyes on that. You can see right behind danielle, it is Tropical Storm earl. What could earl become . A lot of folks watching that carefully. Meteorologists have their eyes trained on it. We will con to follow this for you as well this morning. We do want to get to incredible new video released overnight of those 33 miners in chile. Despite being trapped half a mile underground they actually seem to be doing fairly well. Cbs news correspondent seth doan joins us with the later. They are receiving their first bits of solid food. Teams of doctors, psychologists, and experts are gathering above the mine to help coach them in setting up an exercise regimen and even a daily routine. But since the miners were discovered sunday, exactly what life deep underground looks like has been left up to our imagination until now. Even though it is grainy, this is the clearest picture we have seen so far of the miners lives half a mile underground. Shirtless due to the soaring heat and humidity, the 33 trapped miners sing kwlilchile national anthem. A show of strength and pride and a test many to an unbroken spirit. They take the camera on a tour of the cavernous mine despite 22 days of confinement, they are surprisingly upbeat. I would like to say hello to my grandchildren and all of my family, this miner says. The camera was sent down to the rescues could check on their hem. It reveals much more. A mini community. With a makeshift pantry. A card game in progress. The men have been told they will be stuck underground past chiles Independence Day in mid september. But that they should be with their families by christmas. Prepared for the long haul, lifesaving supplies, like water, have been lowered from above. Along with dominos and other distractions to sustain sanity. If you have any kind of distraction that is healthy and will take your mind off of the situation. Any sort of relief from the boredom is tremendously important. Reporter nasa has been contacted by the Chilean Health ministry. Seeking advice for cope in confined spaces over time. It takes courage to not leave us abandoned, in miner says. But above ground abandonment is not even a thought. He lost some weight but he can gain it again. This relative of the trapped miner says. Clearly planning for a future together. Miners may not be the only ones that need to be rescued. According to the lawyers, the company which owns the mine may be at risk for going bankrupt. Still the rescue operation will move forward with the staterun Mining Company drilling the rescue tunnel and covering the nearly 2 million cost. We are turning our turn to wall street where the dow is down 74 points. The real headline here is it finished at 9986. Cbs News Business and economics correspondent Rebecca Jarvis is here with the latest. Thats a mental barrier for a lot of people. It is a psychological barrier more so than it is a significant number as far as the stock market is concerned. But when we think about what happened this year in the market and all of the turmoil and the back and forth of stocks, just to see them dip below 10,000 again, something that sends a lot of people a little bit nervous and puts people on edge. Understandably. There was a little bit of good news yesterday. We are getting jobless numbers out. And they didnt go up. Exactly. Jobless claims, people going out, filing for new benefits for insurance. At least things are moving in the right direction. We have seen the last three weeks things moving in the wrong direction. At least we are moving the right way. There is one bright spot. We may need a few for boosts to the confidence. It is such a psychological thing to see these number. Right now consumers are worried about their jobs. They are worried about that kind of security. And they are looking at the markets and saying i dont feel like this is a positive thing. Four out of five investors typical american investors, think the market is going down in next six months. That doesnt equate to positive trends. Where do the economists see the market trending . September for economists and market watchers tends to be one of the worst months for stocks. September could be a difficult month on top of that, a lot of people growth estimates have been recalibrated. They are taking down the growth estimates. So far, however, we havent heard estimates that say we are bogey to actually slow down to the tune of contraction of the economy. People are still saying there will be growth but less. Small growth. Better than no growth at all. Between want to turn our attention back to new orleans where harry smith is this morning. Hi, harry. Erica, thanks so much. Hard to believe, as we say, five years have flown by. Fiveyear anniversary of katrina. New orleans was hit so horribly hard. Lot of tension was paid here. What people forget that initially it was mississippi that was hardest hit. This is a beautiful gorgeous sanctuary here. The morning after katrina we stood in front of what was left of the First Baptist church in gulfport. The storm surge leveled nearly everything. And katrina roared right through the state. Ghost town. Reporter this used to be one of the best neighborhoods in gulfport. But almost every house here near the water was damaged or destroyed. In five years, very few people have decided to come back. Five years ago, we met dr. Jason smith. All that rubble up there, thats my home. Reporter whose beautiful 100yearold home lay in rubble. Has ever ever occurred to you go back to rebuild there . On the beach, no. First of you a, the neighborhood is gone. Secondly, the insurance is prohibitive. Reporter while katrina hit new orleans hard, the real trouble started when the storm passed and the levees failed. Americans watched in disbelief. New orleans was drowning and it seemed no one knew how to throw it a lifeline. Hours turned into days of chaos. And misery. There were heroes like the coast guard who rescued thousands. And villains, including the head of fema. Did you screw this up . No. No. Reporter much of the city was left uninhabitable. Many residents left. More than 100,000 never came back. There are 50,000 empty houses in new orleans. They are either in some state of destruction or have been simply abandoned. Sadly, most of this neighborhood looks like this. I would like to think that when i comes to government, a lot more gets said than done. Reporter the likelihood new orleans will flood again has been addressed by the army corps of engineers. Whats the price tag for all of this concrete and steel and hard work . Slrs 14 billion. Reporter much of the city and ushs are protected by miles of flood walls and this massive surge barrier. Very robust system. There is nothing like it. Anywhere in the United States or anywhere else in the world. Reporter five years later there is a spirit here that didnt exist before katrina. The survivors share a kind of grit and determination. The big story here is one of resilience. It is one of a deep abiding american spirit that reached back into the depths of peoples soul and stood them back up again. Thats the real story. This is a home and we intend to be here a long period of time. Reporter we are joined in new orleans by louisiana senator mary landrieu. Thank you very much for being here. On a scale of one to ten, how close what number value would you give new orleans in terms of its road to recovery . We are about a six. We are excited and we have a ways to go. Theres extraordinary things going on here. We want to thank everyone for helping us. We are building a brandnew Public School system basically from the ground up. Because so many of our schools were destroyed and new health care system. As you heard this morning the restaurants and food are back. Which is the most important thing. Yeah. I think thats part of a life blood of what goes on here. What do you think was the hardest thing for people here over the last five years . Well, theres so many things that were hard. One of the most most difficult things was to have faith in the levee system because when those levees broke, it was not just katrina, it was a catastrophic failure of an infrastructure stis testimony thats protected the city for over 300 years. And it failed cat strofcally. It puts the entire region under anywhere from 6 to 14 feet of water. The gulf coast was a surge but here was just a massive flood. People lost faith that the levees would hold. So we had to invest 14 billion. I have to give credit to the core of engineers. Once they got the money, will he them go, built it ahead of time. And then just thats been terrific. They say that they will sustain 100year storm. We have a long way to go. 100 years isnt going to do. The netherlands protects themselves for a storm every 10,000 years. Okay. We are struggling in america to protect our people from storms and surges once every 100. Thats why we continue to fight the Coastal Restoration and levee system. Thats battle we are win. We were with you yesterday in a neighborhood that is in a state of, we hope, revitalization. Theres still other neighborhoods theres such a patchwork of the one house up here, lower ninth ward, great example. There their entire city blocks that are just completely blinded and empty. Can a city survive like that . Absolutely. Now, the lower ninth ward is going to be our most challenging neighb neighborhood. The brad pitt foundation, hud secretary literally jogs through that neighborhood regularly. Wore so grateful for sean donovan literally jogs through the lower ninth ward. He knows it well. We are coming up with additional strategies because the poor neighborhoods, lower ninth ward has Small Businesses and middle class families. Very strong sense of community. They didnt have as many resources as some of the other neighborhoods. We have to help them especially. Lake view, mid city, broad more, neighborhood that i grew up in, my parents had seven feet of water if their homes. They are coming back strong because our leaders made strong decisions. We decided we werent going to lose this community. We were going to fight for every neighborhood and thats what we are going to do. We are going to get it done. I think you know that guy. I know a little bit about him. Your brother. All right. Senator, thank you so much. Appreciate it. Lets go back to new york. Good morning. This morning an american jailed in north korea is heading home to boston with former president jimmy carter. Aijalon mahli gomes was pardoned after he met with mr. Carter.
