Download or read book The Lake Turned Upside Down written by Sue Dugan Moline and published by . This book was released on 2020-12-11 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: August 6, 1969 became the fifth deadliest day in Minnesota tornado history, killing a total of fifteen people state-wide. Eleven of fifteen deaths occurred on the east and west shores of Roosevelt Lake at 4:55 p.m. in the tiny town of Outing. There had been no warnings. Dozens of cabins, resorts, and vacation homes sat in the path of the F4 tornado as it blew through the Outing area, affecting countless lives for decades to come. More unbelievable than the tragedy of those who died is the miracle that anyone survived at all. The Lake Turned Upside Down is the most comprehensive account of the event to date, compiling news reports, pictures, movies, weather records, and over one hundred testimonies from survivors, first responders, and eyewitnesses. This moving book shares the stories that have been burned on the hearts of the families in Outing that day-their lives, their unbelievable survival, and even how seven of the tornado's victims had been preparing for heaven just weeks beforehand. The National Weather Service called it the Northwoods Tornado Outbreak. The author calls it a miracle that anyone lived as the cabin she was in with 17 occupants was blown into deep Roosevelt Lake. Sue Dugan Moline shares the drama and hope in a tragedy that has been tucked away until now. After a half-century, it is time to pass on the memories that refused to be silenced. Endorsement "I witnessed the Outing tornado damage about a week after the 1969 storm as a nine-year-old youth traveling up north while on vacation with my family. In 1984, I wrote a story on the fifteenth anniversary of the deadly Outing storm. I remember struggling to find witnesses to interview for the story because most of the survivors were from the Twin Cities. Fast forward thirty-five years later, I was in my Dispatch publisher's office when I received a call from Sue (Dugan) Moline, who said she was one of the tornado survivors. I almost dropped the phone. I told her I had waited thirty-five years for a survivor to tell the story of that tragic day. With Sue's help, I published two stories for the fiftieth anniversary of the Outing tornado. Some of those stories were picked up by newspapers across the state. I credit Sue for her long hours of dedication in collecting information from survivors and emergency workers about that day in our history. This book is a story that people didn't want to talk about for decades but needed to share as part of the mental healing from one of the deadliest tornadoes in Minnesota history. It's also a tribute to the emergency workers and local residents who came to the rescue for the small community." -Pete Mohs, publisher, Brainerd Dispatch and Pine and Lakes Echo Journal About the Author SUE DUGAN MOLINE is a survivor of the Outing tornado that took the lives of her sister, grandmother, and niece. She is a graduate of Bethany Global University, and in 1985 started her own successful business, Words to Go. A devoted wife to her high school sweetheart, Scott, together they have four grown daughters and thirteen grandchildren and reside in Bloomington, Minnesota. Sue enjoys gardening, weekends at the lake, and attending her grandkids' activities in her spare time.

Download or read book Angola Land of Shattered Dreams written by Zeca Santana and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-06-29 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is not a book of fiction. It is an actual account of the events and the nature of the tragedy that befell so many innocent victims on the fateful morning of March 15, 1961, in Angola, Africa, and how it has developed into one of the greatest tragedies to ever hit the continent of Africa. From a genuine desire to be independent from the European powers, so much brutality and vengeance has surfaced that not much has been left standing in Angola on which to build. This book, Angola: Land of Shattered Dreams, was written by Zeca Santana as a record of what happened during those early days of 1961 to his family and others, as well as some of the observations and experiences he has had on his numerous trips to Angola since 1991. As a student of world history, the author also wants to remind and warn the reader of the message that this terror can happen and indeed is happening now in many parts of the world. When ruthless forces or dictators such as Saddam Hussein in Iraq or Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe and the great genocide in Rwanda incite primitive and superstitious beliefs in certain groups of people for the purpose of hatred and violence, terror occurs. It is a message that urges the free and civilized world to take care and be prepared. This terror knows no geography, as every American citizen should realize from the September 11 experience in 2001. It is timeless, and it belongs to every man and woman. It may be a private terror, or it may strike a family, a town, a nation. But whatever its form, its language does not change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proceedings of the XXth International Astronautical Congress compiles selected papers presented at the 20th International Astronautical Congress held in Mar del Plata, Argentina in 1969. This book is divided into five main topics—spacecraft engineering, astrodynamics, astrionics, bioastronautics, and problems of education. In these topics, this compilation specifically discusses the equatorial vibrations of a long flexible boom on a spin-stabilized satellite of non-zero radius; heat transfer to linear bodies in two-dimensional hypersonic low density; and limits of accuracy of general perturbations for satellites moving under constant forces. The rapid optimization of multiple-burn rocket flights; data transmission for planetary studies; and comparison of theoretical and experimental attitude data for the DODGE spacecraft are also elaborated. This text also covers the Apollo life-support and protective systems; bioastronautical aspects of Apollo biomedical operations; and development and applications of hot water rockets. This publication is recommended for astrophysicists and scientists of other disciplines related to astronomy.

Book excerpt: In October of 1975, Jeff Joutras was pulled out of his freshman religion class at Providence Catholic High School to hear the devastating news: his father had tragically died in an workplace explosion and fire at Union Oil's refinery, leaving his wife and seven children behind. Jeff's moving account tells how the grief of the loss followed him for decades, through his career and through his own journey as a father of five, the loss ultimately manifesting in a depression that he hid for years. After dwelling on the loss, Jeff overcame his fear and pride and finally reached out for help. In the process, he found a new perspective on life, death, and living on this side of eternity. My Dad's Rose will resonate with anyone who has struggled with the loss of a loved one. Through his personal recounting, practical advice on dealing with dark thoughts, and confronting the mysteries and metaphors of faith, Jeff shows how our greatest hardships can make us stronger.
