Georges struck Haiti, the Caribbean nation's death toll has risen to 213 and is likely to top 240, a civil defense official said Monday. Poor communications Haiti in "It is not easy to communicate with remote rural sections of Haiti," said civil defense official Dieufort Deslorges. A report on storm damage from Haiti's northern district has yet Mi; Cartbb&n toll surpasses to be completed, he said. Some 30 people were reported missing and feared dead from the storm, which struck Haiti on Sept. 23, Deslorges said. Most of the Haitian deaths were blamed on flooding and mudslides in rural, mountainous areas. For generations, Haitian peasants have cut down trees to make charcoal, denuding mountains and leaving them unable to absorb rainfall. A flash flood nearly destroyed the southeastern border town of Fonds Verrettes, where 102 people died. Georges destroyed thousands of homes and killed more than 56,000 head of livestock, Deslorges said.

"We're really impressed by how quickly he's adapting," said Bob Ratliffe, head of the Free Willy Keiko Foundation. Ratliffe said it likely will be quite some time before officials know whether Keiko is ready to be fulfill the dream of thousands of school children and be placed back into the open ocean just like in the "Free Willy" 10,000-poun- 20-un- food, K.C .
