  • 1933 the Hamm Kidnapping
    Hans Olav Løkken Stjørdal www.historiefortelleren.no 1933 The Hamm’s kidnapping Mafiaen, Chicago og Al Capone, er nok kjente navn og relasjoner selv for lovlydige og sindige nordmenn i dag. En 16-årig hallingdøl som utvandret til Amerika i 1880 hadde nok aldri forestilt seg at han skulle bli sentral overfor disse begrepene. Ei heller hans kommende familie med solide røtter til Stjørdalen. Men la oss begynne med begynnelsen. Ole Lund ble født 11. oktober 1815 på Hammer gård i Skjelstadmark i Hegra. Han giftet seg med Jonetta Opem, født 23. juni 1817, og de overtok etter hvert bruket. Hva som gjorde at de, og mange med dem på den tiden, valgte å emigrere til Amerika, er ikke godt å si. Ole selger gården, og utvandret våren 1857. Sammen med disse, reiste også en familie fra Sætran, hvor fru Sætran var søster til Ole. De kom til Quebec i juni 1857, men ikke uten dramatikk på overfarten. En tradisjonsfortelling i familien forteller at de gikk tom for mat om bord. Dette kjenner vi til fra andre overfarter, når naturkreftene forsinket dem. Omsider kom de sørover via de store sjøene, til Chicago og så oppover Mississippi med båt. Destinasjonen var Red Wing, Minnesota. Her hadde de kontakt med noen tidligere utvandrere fra Hegra, som de fikk bo hos midlertidig. 29. juli blir Gunder født, hvilket tydet på at Jonetta var mange måneder på vei da hun forlot Ole og Jonetta Lund Norge. En kan vel anta at Jonetta hadde en strevsom overfart. Havets uvante gynging for en landkrabbe var nok ikke så forenlig med å være høygravid.

  • Pasco Sheriff's Office Social Media Plan
    Pasco Sheriff’s Office Social Media Plan Overview: Social media is an incredible tool that cannot be ignored any longer. The speed at which individuals communicate has changed in the last several years as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and an assortment of other social media networks continue to crop up. The Pasco Sheriff’s Office seeks to remain at the forefront of this community engagement by engaging followers on social media. The goal of the Sheriff’s Office social media is to show individuals what the Sheriff’s Office faces each day out on shift and to also inform the public of Sheriff’s Office actions while humanizing those who wear the badge every day. As such, the Sheriff’s Office social media plan is a combination of fact based information, humanizing tweets, and showing a lighter side to social media with the ultimate goal of informing and building our audience. Regardless of why an individual chooses to follow the Sheriff’s Office, they will receive our information and be aware of any changes in their community. It is important to remember that each and every post serves to educate and promote our standing in the community. The Sheriff’s Office currently is most active on Facebook and Twitter. Facebook, an ever growing medium that skews towards a slightly older audience, is not used as frequently as Twitter but does receive more fact based and community based posts as described below in the “Should I post…” section. Facebook does not receive engagement, GIFs, or trending topics but it is a tool to push out safety information, arrests, and humanizing efforts such as Behind the 1 Badge posts or Get to Know the PSO.
