Описание:

A history of Oregon without Jesse Applegate would be like Exodus without Moses. Like Moses, Jesse led pioneers through the wilderness across the Oregon Trail in 1843. Like Moses, he was a lawgiver, and like Moses, when proper provocation occurred, he sometimes threw down the tablets.

Jesse Applegate, A Dialogue with Destiny gives a comprehensive historical perspective to the life of this interesting, complicated man who played a major role in the formation of Oregon.

Throughout his amazing life, he led the "cow column" of '43 west to Oregon, wrote the constitution of '45, played a major role in the solving of the Cayuse War, led the expedition to find a new southern route in '46, and fought to keep Oregon free of slavery. But perhaps even more important was the moral compass he provided for the emerging Oregon society. Through his letters to editors of newspapers and to prominent political figures, he provided comment, council, criticism, and loyal opposition to those in power. Local, state, and federal leaders, as well as the historians of the day sought his opinions.

Leta Lovelace Neiderheiser is a great-great granddaughter of Jesse Applegate. She grew up in the small town of Drain, Oregon, just a few miles from Jesse Applegate's donation land claim. Leta attended the University of Oregon and in mid-life went back to school and got her California teachers credential. She taught in the Rocklin, CA school district for a number of years, and retired in 2001. Leta is a member of the Oregon-California Trails Association, and the 2010 chair for the Oregon Historical Trails Advisory Council. She is the mother of two daughters, one son, and the grandmother of four. Today she resides in the Applegate Valley outside the quaint town of Grants Pass, Oregon.

Описание: After a harrowing investigation shook her to her core, she vowed to give up ghost hunting...When Kyrie Carter loses her job and her house, a much-needed new start comes in the form of a house in the mountains of Renovo, Pennsylvania, inherited from a relative she barely remembers. Despite her oldest brother's objections, Kyr reluctantly accepts it....But it seems she can't choose to just walk away.Several spirits haunt the 19th-century house, including Great-Aunt Celeste, the ghost of a woman Kyr first saw when she was only four, and a malicious male spirit who is tied to both a mysterious little girl she befriended as a child and a long-lost treasure rumored to be buried on her newly-acquired land. As Kyr tries to figure out the connection between these spirits and the property she inherited, she stumbles upon evidence of a long-hidden secret that caused a rift between Celeste and Kyr's family-a secret that shatters everything she holds dear.

Описание: A gripping insight into the digital debate over data ownership, permanence and policy “This is going on your permanent record!” is a threat that has never held more weight than it does in the Internet Age, when information lasts indefinitely. The ability to make good on that threat is as democratized as posting a Tweet or making blog. Data about us is created, shared, collected, analyzed, and processed at an overwhelming scale. The damage caused can be severe, affecting relationships, employment, academic success, and any number of other opportunities—and it can also be long lasting.  One possible solution to this threat? A digital right to be forgotten, which would in turn create a legal duty to delete, hide, or anonymize information at the request of another user. The highly controversial right has been criticized as a repugnant affront to principles of expression and access, as unworkable as a technical measure, and as effective as trying to put the cat back in the bag. Ctrl+Z breaks down the debate and provides guidance for a way forward. It argues that the existing perspectives are too limited, offering easy forgetting or none at all. By looking at new theories of privacy and organizing the many potential applications of the right, law and technology scholar Meg Leta Jones offers a set of nuanced choices. To help us choose, she provides a digital information life cycle, reflects on particular legal cultures, and analyzes international interoperability. In the end, the right to be forgotten can be innovative, liberating, and globally viable.
