A woman makes her bed inside her makeshift home where she now lives after an earthquake hit Peru's central coast a year ago in Pisco August 15, 2008. Angry and upset, hundreds of Peruvians denounced the government on Friday for abandoning victims of an 8.0 magnitude earthquake, and laid flowers at the graves of loved ones on the anniversary of their deaths.
