A woman tosses a sign that reads "Respect for life" on top of flowers thrown by relatives and friends of the victims of Brazil's worst air disaster ever in front of the site where the TAM airlines A320 skidded off the runway last week and exploded across a highway from Sao Paulo's Congonhas airport July 29, 2007. Nearly 3,000 of the victims' relatives, friends and sympathizers marched several kilometers to the airport in protest over the government's handling of the country's ten-month air crisis.
