Quake rescues continue as Haitians wait for aid

Rescuers pulled a dehydrated but otherwise uninjured woman from the ruins of a luxury hotel in the Haitian capital early today, an event greeted with applause from onlookers witnessing rare good news in a city otherwise filled with corpses, rubble and desperation.

“It’s a little miracle,” the woman’s husband, Reinhard Riedl, said after hearing she was alive in the wreckage.
