  • The Faith of Dolly Parton by Dudley Delffs

    The Faith of Dolly Parton by Dudley Delffs

    Dudley’s book gives great insight into why so many people around the world love Dolly Parton. While Dolly is one of the biggest superstars, she has never forgotten who she is and where she came from and the faith that anchors her life. GOVERNOR OF TENNESSEE, Bill Haslam, and First Lady Crissy Haslam Three amazing strands of stories are woven into this fabu- lous book, The Faith of Dolly Parton by Dudley Delffs. The thread of biography speaks of a fascinating woman whom we tend to think we know, but whom I admire even more when seeing her through the lens of faith. The thread of memoir shared through the author’s blending of his own life story with Dolly’s is a gift of hope and connection. And the final thread, that of devotional, invites us to more. Faith- based questions at the end of each chapter take us deeper into our own stories, while the prayers remind us that it was Dolly’s faith that has taken her to the heights she’s attained, as she humbly acknowledges. Reading this book reminded me of my own faith journey and the gift of story told through music, words, and life. I love this book! You will too! JANE KIRKPATRICK, award- winning author of All She Left Behind The Faith of Dolly Parton is a little book filled with big dreams! Dudley Delffs weaves together his unique spiritual journey with the wonder and wisdom of Dolly Parton’s with a heartwarming result. I was uplifted by the inspirational gifts of both and delighted by the author’s humor and the 9780310352921_FaithDollyParton_int_HC.indd 1 4/6/18 11:31 AM joy hidden in the stories of Dolly’s life.

    Blackout of the Decade: the Great Northeast Blackout of 1965 Chloe

    Blackout of the Decade: The Great Northeast Blackout of 1965 Chloe Belant Junior Division Historical Paper Paper Length: 1544 Words The only thing you could see for miles was dark, not even a finger was visible. ​ —Stephanie Quaker, New York Times editor. ​ Although it was 55 years ago, The Northeast Blackout of 1965 is still remembered as, “The day of ​ darkness” (Wentwirth,2010). A day where the afternoon turned into night and many people were ​ left in darkness. In the year 1965, on the day of November 9th at around 5:27 p.m., an interference caused voltage through lines across New York and all through the Northeast side of the U.S. to have massive power deduction by almost 4 kilowatts which at the time caused a brown out. A kilowatt is a measurement of power. It has a measurement of 1,000 watts. After almost 4 minutes, “Of slow ​ water pressure and dimmed lights throughout the house, we knew something was up,” says Randy ​ Willmings, a resident of New York at the time. Soon after all lines lost voltage, the city of New York became dark. Many Americans were stuck in subways or train stations and many were gathered in telephone lines to call loved ones. The blackout lasted over 13 hours and covered nearly 800,000 long miles stretching from northeast side of Massachusetts up into Ontario Canada where the power failure originated from. Over 30 million people were affected and up to 1,000 fires went ablaze after power became overloaded at one transformer. “It was a day of definite fights with fire,” says Chief Macdonald of the ​ ​ Massachusetts volunteer fire dept.
