U.S. Senator David Vitter, bottom right, pokes his head through one of the many openings that line the entire length of the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal Surge Barrier following the signing of the "Louisiana Coastal Area Barataria Basin Barrier Shoreline Restoration Project" on Friday, June 22, 2012. The barrier is one of many post-Hurricane Katrina improvements to the New Orleans area's hurricane flood protection system.

Thanks to people like Vitter, the jazz musicians won't drown. Think of the new flood barriers as a kind of diaper, Desh.
