Via James Fallows, we're alerted to yet another series of tragic photographs from China. The Chinese language site features images from a Sunday sports day at a middle school in Beichuan, which -- a day later -- was near the center of the earthquake.

"I include them because they are, again, true to the kind of thing I've seen in provincial China -- and different from what most Westerners imagine when they think of the country," Fallows wrote.

Overnight, a woman was rescued after being trapped in rubble for seven days.

Here's a list of resources if you're of a mind to help out.
