i love levi strauss.e dressed for a lack of success with it plummeting 12% today on hideous guidance. levis came public on march 21st. the first belig deal of the yea and primed the pump for the big ipo cycle. levi is the company has a storied history and kicking around since 1853. it has terrific management we had on the show chip burg, ceo seasoned executive so it made sense why the stock immediately went to a premium after pricing at $17 it spiked up to $22.20 at the open and closed at $23.66 big success. they were trading at 22 times earnings which was more expensive than the average apparel stock, not totally unhinged but this was a rookie stock even though the company had been around for more than 100 years and the first quarter of the gate, maybe that justified the valuation and levis did a great job but the quarter reported last night, the market decided it was a bomb. maybe not a nuclear device but i would say it was a loaded cannister. if you look at the headline number, sell off might seem like

that is dangerously close to the 20 feet that the levy system, the 20 feet that the levy system, theefences system protecting new the flood defences system protecting n ew o rlea ns the flood defences system protecting new orleans can cope with stop now, if it goes over that they are expecting some overspill and the consequences of that can be really catastrophic. very few people have forgotten the consequences of the aftermath of hurricane katrina, where there was a major overwhelming of the levy system. more than 1800 people lost their lives and many other lives were devastated by it. so no—one here is taking the warnings that they have had over the past 48 hours lately. many people are confident that they will come through it. sophie, what are they doing, as faras through it. sophie, what are they doing, as far as they can, to shore up doing, as far as they can, to shore up those levies and defences? well, levies have been shored up since hurricane katrina in 2005 and many millions have been spent on shoring up millions have been spent on shoring up the levy systems and the draina

levy that may be over top is not much use asa that may be over top is not much use as a levy, is it?t much use as a levy, is it? i think they are discussing two different things. they are talking about its resilience. it won't crumble nor be undermined from underneath or it is not improper height. overtopping could occur because water would be higher than any prediction ever thought. i think that is a refuge for saying that. but the core of engineer is famous for making reassuring statements which turn out to be worthless upon later inspection. the one they have used for the last ten years in regard to the new system that we live under 110w the new system that we live under now is that new orleans has never had better hurricane protection. given that the fact that the last one almost destroyed the city, that is quite a load buyer to clear. new o rlea ns is quite a load buyer to clear. new orleans is a particular place and i know people there feel they are treated badly by the powers that be. can you tell us some more about that? i know it is a big question but i need a short answer.
