	Katrina and the Waves - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Katrina and the Waves were a pop rock band of the 1980s, best known for their smash hit "Walking on Sunshine".
		Formed in 1981 in Cambridge, England, the Waves were fronted by American-born singer Katrina Leskanich until she left the group in 1999.
		Reacting to the win, Katrina said it was the second landslide victory in a week; the song won by a record points margin, and Tony Blair had won the 1997 British general election two days previously.

		Rew and the Waves subsequently became a fulltime proposition, a sympathetic and commercially potent outlet for his ace songwriting.
		Katrina and the Waves consists entirely of songs from the first two albums, but they've all been re-recorded or remixed.
		With that one caveat, Katrina and the Waves is otherwise a delight.

		Hurricane Katrina is sure to leave behind higher gasoline prices, strain the homebuilding sector and stretch insurers.
		By the time Katrina made landfall, it was a Category Four hurricane, not the worst-case Category Five that had been feared, and that prompted a revision in preliminary damage estimates made by the insurance industry.
		Katrina was a Category Five storm - the strongest possible - as it passed over many oil rigs and platforms on the Gulf of Mexico.

		The comparison is meant to establish a standard of excellence – and nothing more – for Katrina and the Waves are a stunningly original pop talent in their own right.
		Katrina and the Waves reminds us that while pop style and calculated hooks will take a band so far, there is no substitute for a well-crafted song.
		Katrina herself gets off a good noise solo on "Machine Gun Smith" and mines a worldly, blue-eyed-soul groove in "Cry for Me" and "The Sun Won't Shine without You" that belies her twenty-four years.

	Katrina and the Waves: The Original Recordings: 1983-1984 - PopMatters Music Review
		It's based on that principal that I sought out Katrina and the Waves, The Original Recordings:1983-1984; I've always wondered whether this Canadian group that waxed the infectious and delicious "Walking on Sunshine" didn't unfairly fall by the wayside of popular culture in the 1980s.
		To begin with, KATW (as their fans call them) are a Canadian quartet who recorded three albums together before permanently etching themselves on our collective cultural consciousness with "Walking on Sunshine" (which I doubt KATW fans refer to as WOS).
		The proof of this pudding is the fact that Katrina is bested at her own work by the Bangles, whose version of KATW's "Going Down to Liverpool" is the definitive take.

	Katrina and the Waves
		Whether or not Katrina proves to be the type of disaster that stalls but then kick starts the US economy* remains to be seen.
		Rather, Katrina is all about setting into motion a chain of events that will lead to gains or losses in ‘paper wealth’ and the threat that energy expenditures will cannibalize consumption on a global scale.
		Similarly, the hope is that the US financial markets will retain their integrity; that Katrina’s negative impact on US energy prices/infrastructure is temporary; that the upcoming meeting between the Fed and banks relating to derivatives goes smoothly; that the price of gold does not skyrocket as the US dollar sinks.

	Katrina and the Waves
		Back in the 80s, a band from Cambridge, England made their indelible mark on the music world with the mega-feelgood hit 'Walking on Sunshine.' Soon the Waves were opening for the Beach Boys and surfing a tidal wave created by their first major record label success.
		Now, however, Katrina and the Waves are making waves again as they celebrate their 20th anniversary with a re-issue of original recordings from 1983-1984.
		Katrina Leskanich: It is amazing to hear these tracks backed up in a sympathetic and resourceful package after all these years.

		Katrina is the second hurricane to hit Florida so far this year and is the first hurricane to make a direct hit on Broward County since a Category 4 storm with winds of 155 mph tore through in September 1947.
		CBS News Correspondent Jennifer Donelan reports Katrina is moving west and out into the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico - but could turn around and target Florida for a second time.
		As Katrina rolled in, officials began lowering water levels in canals as a precaution against the storm's expected heavy rains.

	ESA - Observing the Earth - Envisat sees whirling Hurricane Katrina from ocean waves to cloud tops
		At the time of acquisition Hurricane Katrina was a maximum Category Five on the Saffir-Simpson scale.
		The ASAR instrument works by recording signal backscatter based on surface roughness: the wind-free storm centre — seen enclosed within a dark ring feature measuring approximately 60 kilometres across - shows up darker because the waters here are hardly rippled by comparison to the sea around it.
		Katrina has today dropped from a maximum Category Five to a Category Four storm on the Saffir-Simpson scale, but forecasters warn it could again grow in intensity having made landfall.

	Positive Vibrations: Katrina and the Waves
		Katrina and the Waves have always tended to be dismissed as proto-Kylie bubblegum pop on the basis of 'Walking On Sunshine' and 'Sun Street', which is a trifle unfair -- is "Na Na Na Na" really any worse a lyric than "Yip Yip Yip"?
		Katrina -- looking remarkably pretty having ditched her 80s all-tits-'n'-lipstick image -- shows remarkable talent, in singing and especially in winning the audience over.
		At the start most of the sparse audience are sitting in the bar or on the upstairs balcony; by the end of the first set, everyone's out dancing like a nutter and cheering wildly.

	Urban Legends Reference Pages: Politics (Katrina and the Waves)
		An e-mailed rumor claimed that Florida gas stations would be closing and would remain closed for two or three days (due to the interruption of product from Gulf Coast refineries which supply gasoline to much of South Florida), prompting panic buying and long lines at some South Florida stations.
		However, Florida state officials maintained that although gasoline may temporarily be in short supply in some areas due to production interruptions caused by Hurricane Katrina, the state still had plenty of gasoline, companies were working to get additional supplies from the Northeast and overseas, and no multi-day gas station closures were planned.
		It is true that gasoline began to be "rationed" immediately after Hurricane Katrina as refiners and wholesalers put many eastern marketers on allocation (i.e., restricted the amount of fuel they could buy), but this form of rationing technically applies to retailers, not to customers.

	Splendid Magazine reviews Katrina and the Waves: The Original Recordings 1983-1984
		Ask most people about Katrina and the Waves and the best they'll muster is a few bars of "Walking on Sunshine", or perhaps a foggy memory that they were a one-hit wonder from the mid-eighties.
		The Original Recordings 1983-1984 isn't going to start a Katrina stampede, but it improves upon their preeminent legacy as kings and queen of the hackneyed "Hits of the '80s" circuit.
		They never conjured anything better than "Walking on Sunshine", but the band jangled out their fair share of iridescent pop gems on their first two, Canadian-only LPs: near-hit "Going Down to Liverpool" is a blinding three minutes of chewy guitar pop goodness, and the fantastic "Red Wine and Whiskey" is a wild-eyed drinking ode.

	TCS: Tech Central Station - Katrina and the Political Waves (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Whether the death toll from Katrina exceeds that killed by the terrorists four years ago may not be known for a while, though the numbers that are currently being thrown about in the media suggest that it may be three or four or five times as great.
		One thing is already certain, however: Katrina will have a profound impact on the way Americans think about their government, just as 9/11 did -- only Katrina will almost certainly move public opinion in the opposite direction from the way 9/11 moved it -- with consequences that are, for the moment, foreseeable.
		Americans thought they were empowering central government in order to make it efficient, agile, and swift in response; in fact, they were merely bloating it with additional bureaucracies and men of such startling mediocrity that they could only have been appointed by one another.

		With serious flooding anticipated in the hurricane's wake as well as direct storm damage, the US Geological Service (USGS) activated the International Charter on Space and Major Disasters on 27 August.
		Additionally Envisat instruments can potentially be used to take the temperature of the warm ocean waters that power storms during the annual Atlantic hurricane season, or detect sea height anomalies related to warm upper ocean features known as 'loop currents'.
