Johnny Was His Name

release date: Dec 19, 2023
Johnny Was His Name
The Flood of 1927 in the United States was one of the worst in America’s history. With the exception of Mississippi, Arkansas was impacted substantially greater than any other state. The Flood of 1927’s massive destruction covered over 6,600 square miles, with thirty-six out of seventy-five Arkansas counties under water, up to twenty feet deep in places. Rural Arkansas City (in Desha County), where Johnny Johnson was born, was one of the cities gravely affected by the flood’s devastation. Johnny Was His Name takes readers on a journey during the Flood of 1927, recounting Johnny Johnson’s view of people coming together, working together and living together to help one another survive. Johnny Was His Name shares the story of a nine-year-old Johnny Johnson, as he lived with his mother and Arkansas City residents, on top of the Arkansas City levee for six weeks during the 1927 Flood. Johnny Was His Name is an encouraging story of hope and perseverance in uncertain times. The story shares how people who may have stark differences united for a common goal. It gives a glimpse into an observant young Johnny Johnson, seeing people set aside their disagreements to support each other; and be their brothers (and sisters)’s keepers during a natural disaster. It’s a story of triumph amid tragedy; comradery, and companionship amid catastrophes, and a sense of “somebody-ness” and a new sense of self-respect. Johnny Was His Name is a story of a boy named Johnny Johnson before he would become John H. Johnson, the founder and publisher of Johnson Publishing Company and the iconic Ebony and Jet magazines. “I Love this inspiring and educational story.” -Janis F. Kearney, Author/Independent Publisher/Former Newspaper Publisher/Presidential Historian “Ms. Angela’s book on Mr. Johnson’s early life, shines a light on little Johnny’s hard life in his hometown. With his mother, they were survivors of the famous flood, and poverty. You also see why he fought so hard to show his community in a positive light. The book is needed and will give the public some new insight into one of our great leaders.” -Roy Lewis/ Johnson Publishing Company (JPC) Photographer/Filmmaker “Angela Courtney has written an insightful and engaging book that exposed me to information I previously did not know about such a legendary man. Bravo!” -ReShonda Tate, Journalist/Author/Publisher/Speaker/Producer “This book shows how brilliance can be found in the most unlikely places—even atop a flood-choked levee in a small Arkansas town. Young Johnny survived the 1927 flood and, so did the entrepreneurial genius that would lead him to found one of the most publishing companies in the U.S. Mr. Johnson’s flagship magazines, Ebony and Jet, were keepsakes in African American households for decades—our cherished chronicles of Black news, accomplishment, and entertainment. We owe Angela Courtney our thanks for bringing this part of his story to light.” -Deborah Mathis, Journalist and Author “I knew a lot about John H. Johnson, for I had the pleasure of working with the incredible man for three decades. Yet, author Angela Courtney made me aware of facts from his childhood that truly are enlightening and moving. It all supports why he became the extraordinary publisher, businessman and humanitarian that he did. Bravo to ‘Little Johnny’ and to Angela Courtney.” -Lynn Norment, Retired Ebony Magazine Editor/Writer; Now Columnist for the Commercial Appeal Newspaper, Memphis

A Mathematical Study of the Impact on Salinity Intrusion of Deepening the Lower Mississippi River Navigation Channel

release date: Jan 01, 1987
A Mathematical Study of the Impact on Salinity Intrusion of Deepening the Lower Mississippi River Navigation Channel
The US Army Engineer District, New Orleans has been evaluating the feasibility of deeper draft access to the ports of New Orleans and Baton Rouge, Louisiana. One of the factors being considered in the evaluation is the impact of the deeper channel on salinity intrusion in the Lower Mississippi River. The importance of such an evaluation is because the city of New Orleans relies primarily upon the Mississippi River for its supply of fresh water. A major reason for conducting the numerical modeling study was not only to evaluate the impact of a deeper channel on salinity intrusion using historical riverflows but also to use the numerical model to determine the impact on the wedge intrusion of increasing the height of natural river crossings, i.e., creating a sill in the river. To address the question of the stability of such a sill composed of natural sediment, the HEC-6 computer program Scour and Deposition in Rivers and Reservoirs, HEC (1977), was applied.

Systematic Nursing Assessment

Systematic Nursing Assessment
Professional nurses have long been identifying and interpreting clues related to the gathering of information from which such decisions could be consistently drawn. The organization, systematization, and clustering of such clues required an extensive search of what was meaningful to nurses in different clinical settings. The research staff who designed the project as a contract to fulfill some basic goals for collecting, disseminating and utilizing information data for patients'' records, have spent 3 years refining an assessment tool with two major factors in mind. First, a guideline was needed to obtain the most accurate information possible about individual patients in the context of their families and the community. Second, an assessment tool was needed which was computer manageable in the sense that it could be adapted to an on-line system of computer input and retrieval which would supply significant information to multiple sources. Two major sets of assessment records have been developed from an exhaustive trial of forms in a variety of settings. Consultation has been obtained from resources country-wide to insure as broad a view as possible of the current efforts in the development of new record systems. Faculty, students and nursing service staff members in hospitals and community health agencies have participated in the trials of these forms in real situations.
