MANILA — Typhoon-ravaged Philippine islands faced a huge relief effort Monday as bodies lay in the streets and survivors pleaded for food, water and medicine. Police guarded stores to prevent people from taking TVs and treadmills in Tacloban, the worst- hit city. It's horrible that people would even think to steal valuables. Philippines officials said that Friday's typhoon may have killed 10,000 or more people but with the slow pace of recovery the official death toll remained well below that.

 ECU, home of the Pirates, first began classes in 1909, where it served as a teaching training school. Is this statement objective or subjective??
