The book is not a simple autobiography, for Nation's material is not limited to the exposition of her life. Nation (1908), her one contribution to American letters, chronicles Nation's mission to defend love and life in the American family from the demon rum. Nation's autobiography, The Use and Need of the Life of Carry A. Instead, Nation was determined never to suffer the deprivation of love, which her first husband's addiction to drink had brought her. Complete with a noble, upright father, a mother sporadically deranged by the illusion that she was Queen Victoria, and a faithful mammy with a grip on reality, Nation emerged from the fancies of childhood and the Civil War, like Scarlett O'Hara, with God as her witness-but it was not physical hunger she vowed never to endure again. Nation describes it, this American symbol of rampant morality is perhaps our real Scarlett O'Hara, stripped of all romantic distortion. Born 25 November 1846, Garrard County, Kentucky died 2 June 1911, Leavenworth, Kansasĭaughter of George and Mary Campbell Moore married Dr.Charles Gloyd, 1867 David Nation, 1877īorn into the antebellum American "paradise" of faithful slaves and bountiful nature, as Carry A.

Pasquale the black box society6/12/2023 Self-serving and reckless behavior is surprisingly common, and easy to hide in code protected by legal and real secrecy. But leaks, whistleblowers, and legal disputes have shed new light on automated judgment. Shrouded in secrecy and complexity, decisions at major Silicon Valley and Wall Street firms were long assumed to be neutral and technical. Hidden algorithms can make (or ruin) reputations, decide the destiny of entrepreneurs, or even devastate an entire economy. But who connects the dots about what firms are doing with this information? The Black Box Society argues that we all need to be able to do so―and to set limits on how big data affects our lives. The data compiled and portraits created are incredibly detailed, to the point of being invasive. Every day, corporations are connecting the dots about our personal behavior―silently scrutinizing clues left behind by our work habits and Internet use.

This is me ian thorpe6/11/2023 Ian Thorpe is a hero because he is motivational, motivational enough to prove that limits cannot be put on athletics. This shows Thorpe’s swimming accomplishments but he has done so much more for example, starting his own charity organization when he was only eighteen years old. He was only five when he started swimming and fought an allergy that affected his swimming, which proved his determination, and he was only fifteen when he became the world champion in the four hundred meter freestyle. Although Thorpe is one of the greatest swimmers who have ever competed, he has also done things for good causes such as making generous donations to organizations, and other things to try and make the world a better place. Ian Thorpe is remembered as a swimmer, world record holder, and arguably Australia’s greatest ever Olympian, but Australia’s Thorpedo has done more for the world than just win medals and set new records.
