U.S. President George W. Bush (C) shakes hands with New York Fire Department members who also worked in New York in September 11, 2001, while visiting firemen in New Orleans, September 11, 2005. Bush is visiting the area for the third time since the hurricane slammed into Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. An estimated one million people have been displaced from their homes in the Gulf states since Katrina hit on August 29. In Louisiana, the official death toll stands at 154. Mississippi, the other hardest-hit state, had 211 confirmed killed. There were also fatalities, though much lower numbers, in Alabama and Florida. REUTERS/Larry Downing LSD/PN
