Assuming that this is to do with the use of the Louisana Superdome in New Orleans as a shelter for many people who had to evacuate their residences during Hurricane Katrina, then originally it was planned to have about 9000 people there but this soon swelled to about 15,000-20,000. While the Superdome was built to withstand up to 200mph winds, a few holes developed in the roof which leaked rainwater. Also, there was  no water purification systems at the site , no  chemical toilets, no antibiotics, or anti-diarrheals or for dysentery  stored there.Also there was no assigned medical staff and no sick bay, and most of the cots had been brought by evacuees. It was considered a refuge of last resort by the mayor of New Orleans with only very limited food, water and supplies. This contrasts sharply with the emergency hurricane preparedness in Cuba a poor country compared to the US where people's needs come first.

In the painting, we can see Icarus's feet sinking into the water. And, in Ovid's story, the melting of the wax holding Icarus's wings together along with his falling into the sea is clearly described.

Paraphin [41]

Answer and Explanation:

Being an athlete on a university team is an activity that requires a lot of dedication and effort, for this reason, many people believe that university athletes should be paid so that they can dedicate themselves fully to the sport and do not need to look for secondary jobs that would decrease this dedication. However, other people believe that having the opportunity to play on the university team is already the greatest privilege that these athletes are having and that paying them would not be fair to other students who also promote important activities within the university.
