A piano chair hangs from the ceiling in the home of Martha Gordon as she looks through her home destroyed during the flood in the aftermath of Hurricane Irene, Monday, Sept. 26, 2011, in Wayne, N.J. The chair, which was on top of a piano, was lodged into the ceiling when the Ramapo River crested sending floodwaters into the residence. Gordon, who has lived at the house for 50 years, says she has given up and will be tearing the house and moving to Maine. She has talked to FEMA, but doesn't expect any quick relief aid.
