How many are those guys?
This was the Benani's other home last July, like some of the others they fought by the nature.
But in the end, Kaiser Creek won.
With the help of the Salvation Army, Greg Strong, and Emot, they were able to find a bigger home.
We've got family and friends, and everybody that's kind of working together and helping out in every way.
All the same baggers that worked their tails off to help us save our home.
The blood of 93 officers off the board was to be thankful for.
Friends? Family?
Not everyone's luckiest of the Benani family. This was the Koch home, backed up against Kaiser Creek.
The water got up almost over the top of the front door, and they were able to get some of their belongings out.
But they're still trying to put their lives back together.
They're getting another step ready to go out there.
They're getting out here, and they're waiting for the second insurance company to come through.
So they pay a fee of $1 for every hand.
All five for the other one.
And they keep the ones that pay the blood.
Even though everywhere they look they see reminders of the blood,
they are with the only thing that could never be replaced. They have each other.
They're celebrating Thanksgiving with unquenchable passion.
With all their human descendants in a community they've managed themselves.
The community is on Justin Bell's Jonathan's World, and is cast with a private life goal set as a force for the L.A. Skyline.
You will say that Mr. David Adams is the CEO of what may be the most innovative experiment yet in the fight against blood and violence.
The concept originated with this man, homeless activist, who along with Adams,
solicited corporate contributions to finance the project.
Each goal cost about $6,500.
This is what we call first step transition for the sheltered housing of our homes.
This is not home.
This is how the homeless live on the streets of Los Angeles every day outside of the shelters and projects like Genesis One,
where Thanksgiving is just another cold day.
Jim Zygert spent last Thanksgiving in a leisurely, on this vacant lot.
That would be cool if he moved to Genesis, but now he's likely to be far above.
Some of the structure, you know, he would depend on, you know, you would depend on him, with safety and a dress, a phone, a place to watch and cook, and access to health and social services.
Jim and others here have begun to look for work again.
Under the Community Plan, residents are encouraged to buy permanent housing within a year, making room for new covers to the village.
Still, no one, not even Ted Hayes, sees Justin Bell as the answer to this problem, but it is itself.
The fact that we can come together and deal with this problem, that is something we make before, and that's what America is really all about.

We're going to pause for a moment so other stations can join us.
Coming up in this half hour of night five, the Middle East peace process continues to be challenged by violence in the occupied territories.
We'll have more reports.
But first, as the American airline strikes head towards an arbitrary solution, another major carrier is facing labor trouble.
Machinists for United Airlines vowed Thursday they'll continue a work slowdown.
They began Monday, and United rejected a union buyout offer.
Buyout talks were scheduled for December 1st, and the union basically acquired 50% of the company.
United's current company, UAL, had more than $1.2 billion in 1991.
The company's management says holiday service is not that effective on this slowdown.
It was a wild, Thanksgiving day of work travel, and a lot of other things.
In Texas, as snow and freezing rain swept across the state, the holiday was a blessing, no rush hour.
In Dallas, the sandstorms were just as overgrown as they came out of the snow and ice.
Freezing rain had many areas of wind chills in the 20s as far south as Houston.
And the snow was built back there in the Cowboys, Dolphins, and the East Coast.
Some people had more than $1.2 billion in labor costs, and the UAL was a big deal.
The UAL was a big deal.
Now to southern Louisiana, it will trigger a mixed bag of light snow and freezing rain and drizzle from central Texas all the way north into Illinois.
Another four to eight inches of snow expected from the eastern decos to the western Great Lakes,
like rain in parts of Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, and along the East Coast.
Pretty nice out west, just a few high clouds out there.
Now check the outlook in your area.
