Download or read book A Search for Residual Magnetism Along a Tornado Path written by Robert C. Costen and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A search for residual magnetism was made along the damage path of a strong tornado that passed through a residential section of Hazlehurst, Mississippi, on January 23, 1969. Over 3000 gauss-meter readings were taken on nailheads in 24 frame buildings at various points on both sides of the damage path, but no evidence of residual magnetism attributable to the tornado was found. A statistical analysis of the data from seven of the buildings showed that an upper bound on possible axial dc electric current in the tornado was 3900 amperes at touchdown and 6100 amperes during its most intense phase. Residual magnetism measurements also indicated that transient electric currents of about 135 and 300 amperes had occurred in ground wires connected to the electric-meter boxes on two buildings. This finding suggests that residual-magnetism measurements on nails may be useful for detecting possible magnetic fields from ball lightning and other sporadic electrical phenomena, since no prior instrumentation is required.

Book excerpt: Rick Shannon is an unemployed FM rock DJ considering a mid-life change in careers. But just as he begins selling off his record collection, a job offer comes from a small station in Mississippi, where a DJ recently stopped showing up for work. No sooner than he settles into the job, Rick finds a mysterious reel of tape that just might explain what happened to the missing DJ. His curiosity piqued, Rick starts poking around and soon finds himself going down a road littered with extortion, arson, murder, and an FCC violation that makes Howard Stern look like a Cub Scout. Before you can say "Stairway to Heaven”, Rick finds himself wading through a swamp of suspects, including a tough divorcee who rents construction equipment, a former local beauty pageant queen (Miss Tire & Auto Parts), and the president of a local personal finance company who has peculiar ideas about collateral and who just might be part of the feared Dixie Mafia. Reviews of the DJ Rick Shannon series 'Hilarious – and dead on. Fitzhugh treats us to a tragicomic tour of regional black-and blues history.' New York Times 'Fast, funny, and fabulous. This is Fitzhugh's finest – and that's saying a lot!' Jill Conner Browne 'A lost-tapes mystery - all blues mysteries are lost-tapes mysteries - but unlike the rest, this pays off with a climax so rich you want to hear the tapes as much as the people hunting them down.' Greil Marcus

Download or read book Kicking Leaves The Contrarian Life of a Yankee Rebel written by Caperton Tissot and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-05-21 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of a woman born to money and privilege, who rejected the upper class values of her parents while still a child. The bookÕs title refers to the difficulty of changing thingsÉ like piles of leaves, once kicked, return to their original state. CapertonÕs life has been filled with both amazing and deplorable people, charming and not so charming animals, frightening and joyous events. She has always been active in progressive causes, once pulling an outrageous stunt to talk with Mario Cuomo about an environmental issue. She was active in the anti-war movement and lived close to New York when the twin towers went down. CapertonÕs life has not been all kicking leaves. She has touched the lives of many people who will remain changed by her humor, generosity, and spirit. She has written prose, poetry, and memoir. As her mother lived until almost 106, we can anticipate much more writing from Caperton in the future.
