- George Mendez, foreground, a 55-year-old recovering alcoholic, sits
in front of a drunk woman in the Skid Row area of Los Angeles on
Tuesday, July 23, 2013. The area, originally agricultural until the
1870s when railroads first entered Los Angeles, has maintained a
transient nature through the years from the influxes of short-term
workers, migrants fleeing economic hardship during the Great Depression,
military personnel during World War II and the Vietnam conflict, and
low-skilled workers with limited transportation options who need to
remain close to the city's core, according to the Los Angeles Chamber of
Commerce. (AP Photo/Jae C. Hong, File)

Monday by a drive-by shooting in which masked gunmen sprayed a wedding
party outside a Cairo church with automatic weapons fire, killing
several, including two young girls, in an attack that raised fears of a
nascent insurgency by extremists after the military's ouster of the
president and a crackdown on Islamists. (AP Photo/Khalil Hamra, File)

- Metal-sculpted flowers up to 40-feet tall frame the 605-foot Space
Needle as it become obscured by fog Wednesday, Oct. 23, 2013, in
Seattle. Forecasters say a mostly dry, high pressure system that has
been sitting over the Northwest for a couple of weeks is causing dense
fog in many parts of Washington. The National Weather Service said
visibility early Wednesday morning in the central Puget Sound area was a
quarter-mile or less. The high pressure has created a condition where
the coast and mountains are sometimes more likely to see sunshine than
lowlands and valleys. (AP Photo/Elaine Thompson, File)
