Levee is almost reduced to begging Sturdyvant to listen to him play his own songs, which Sturdyvant immediately objects to. Sturdyvant knows Levee needs him in order to be successful, and is patronising and disrespectful before finally shoving the money for the songs into Levee’s pocket. Levee immediately takes it out and throws it on the floor. Levee’s anger and frustration in this scene highlights…

The levee was also not high enough to prevent the flow of water (McKay, 2006). It is, therefore, my opinion that the levee engineer should be held accountable and charged with neglect of their responsibility of building up to standard levee system yet they were aware of the coming hurricane (Kessler & Parker, 2006). Most of the destructions came by the failure of the levee system protecting the entire infrastructure of the city. Poor decision-making and avoidance of the levee system led to…

Category 5 hurricane and was predicted to create several landfalls within the affected area. The wind was moving in a pattern causing a storm surge toward the city like a high tide. Due to poor construction, the floodwall broke the flood wall and levee and like a tsunami, the water flooded New Orleans. The second and third flood walls also collapsed and result in more than eighty percent of the city in water and thousands of people were banished. The levees and flood water failure led…

Santa Barbara’s Coastal Watershed divides into six sites: Carpinteria, Rocky Nook Park, Mission C, Maria Ygnacio, Atascadero and San Jose. All the sites are managed by a levee system, and half of these sites are empty; no water flows through them because it doesn’t rain frequently in Santa Barbara (typically only raining between 3-6 inches during the wet months, which is between November-March), but all empty at the Pacific Ocean, which is relatively close to the city (t-cep.org/floods).…

packed winds of 174 mph, which put it at category 5 hurricanes. Once it ground, the winds dropped, which made it a category 4 hurricane. However, due to city being below Sea level, water from the Atlantic Ocean was forced into the city causing the levee system to break down as water rushed into the city…

storms and found that their emergency operations plan was fleshed out well in some areas but sketchily done it others. They did not follow up on additional planning due to budget constraints. (E) The hurricane left the city relatively intact; however, levee breeches flooded the city. 5. Lessons Learned: (A) Key Takeaway: Funding must be devoted to hurricane emergency management in New Orleans. A lot of the issues that led to Hurricane Katrina being a catastrophe were due budget cuts and…

black entertainer in twentieth century America (Gaffney 3). But, there are constant efforts by fellow band member Levee and the studio producer Sturdyvant to “urbanize” Ma’s already successful style. Ma Rainey’s Southern culture and connection to the blues she performs come from her deep belief that the blues are life’s way of thinking. Countering changing musical tastes of the young Levee and the greedy Sturdyvant, Ma insists she sings her original versions of songs, a clear protest to yielding…
