The Memorial is in remembrance of the thousands of innocent people who died in the World Trade Center and the heroic emergency response personnel who died trying to save them. \n\nThe murderers who killed them and the murderers who sponsor them will not be forgotten, but for different reasons, and with much different results.

The Russian state was destabilised by World War 1 and the Tsar was overthrown by a popular revolution in spring 1917. There was a brief attempt at a provisional government led by liberals, but during 1917 Lenin was smuggled back into Russia from exile in Europe and his Bolshevik party eventually headed the October revolution and established the Soviet Union in the civil war of 1917-1922, eliminating the "Whites" (the old aristocratic government), the anarchists and the rival socialists.

[Printer Friendly] [Text Version]A a\nGovernor Dedicates Building Honoring Former Governor and State Highway Commissioner Murray D. Van Wagoner\nContact:  John Truscott (517) 335-6397 \nAgency: Transportation \n\n \n\nAugust 11, 1999 \nState Transportation Building gets a new name \n\nGovernor Engler today dedicated the Murray D. Van Wagoner Transportation Building in honor of the late Michigan Governor and State Highway Commissioner. The building, formerly known as the Transportation Building, located at 425 W. Ottawa, Lansing, houses the Michigan Department of Transportation. \n\n"Governor Van Wagoner's lifetime commitment to public service speaks to the dedication and respect to which he gave all his endeavors," said Engler. "His contributions to the state and country have earned him a place among the highest honored Michigan citizens." \n\nMurray D. Van Wagoner served as Governor of Michigan in 1941-1942 and elected State Highway Commissioner from 1933-1940. He was responsible for the first roadside park along a state highway system and established the nation's first permanent travel information center at New Buffalo as State Highway Commissioner. Van Wagoner was also an early advocate of the Mackinac Bridge by working to build the causeway on the north side of the Straits in 1941. Further construction on the bridge came to halt with the beginning of World War II. \n\nIt was during his governorship that he made his most significant public service contribution. At the request of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Van Wagoner led the development of the "Arsenal of Democracy" through the construction of an expressway linking Detroit and Ypsilanti to support the Willow Run bomber plant, in only 11 months. In addition, Van Wagoner launched the civilian defense program and the expansion of the home guard and worked to see that strikes did not disrupt the production of essential war materials. \n\nIn 1947, President Harry S. Truman appointed Van Wagoner as U.S. Military Governor of Bavaria. In 1949, he was named land commissioner of Bavaria for the U.S. State Department. \n\nVan Wagoner returned to Michigan in 1950, soon after he joined a private firm as a consulting engineer, and in 1951 served as a regent of the University of Michigan. The last, and longest, post held by Van Wagoner was that of member and vice-chairman on the Mackinac Bridge Authority, a tenure that ran from its inception in 1950 until his death in 1986. \n\nVan Wagoner was married for 61 years to Helen. They had two children named Ellen and Jo Ann. Van Wagoner passed away on June 12, 1986, at age 88. They are survived by their daughter Jo Ann, who lives in Reno, Nevada, with her husband, U.S. Army General (Retired) Frederick Karhohs and their two children: Major Jeffery Karhohs and James Karhohs, DDS and son-in-law Walt Wikol of Birmingham and his four children: Murray D. Van Wagoner Wikol, Michael, Amy Christine, Thomas, and 12 great-grandchildren.

Mikhail Timofeevich Kalashnikov (Михаи́л Тимофе́евич Кала́шников, born November 10, 1919) is a famous Russian gun designer. Born in a poor peasant family in the village of Kurya, Altai region, he started his engineering career working at a train depot, where Kalashnikov was able to learn much about mechanics. In 1938 he was drafted into the Red Army and served as a tank commander during the first months of the Great Patriotic War. In October 1941 Kalashnikov was heavily wounded in combat and sent home from the frontlines. He started to create his first gun designs in a hospital and soon joined a depot's workshop of the Moscow Aviation Institute. While working there Kalashnikov produced a number of innovations for tanks, including a mechanism that would count the number of shots fired. Within several years, he was promoted to the position of chief engineer and given far more resources. In 1947, he designed the AK-47 (an acronym for "Avtomat Kalashnikova model 1947"). In 1949 the AK-47 assault rifle became operational in the Red Army; after this the design would become Kalashnikov's most famous invention.

What's your question?  The revolution ousted a Soviet puppet government and installed Imre Nagy.  It started on encouragement from Voice of America.  The Soviets sent in tanks and troops, who thought they were in Egypt to fight the British and French invasion following Nasser's seizure of the canal.  Nagy was executed by the Soviets and Janos Kadar was installed.
