Interesting museum for those interested in shipping history. Lots of cool models of boats and a fun simulator for the kids
A great museum, very inexpensive (on the same 40sek ticket as the city museum, natural history museum, art museum etc) all about the seafaring past and future of the city. Lots of models and an interactive kids zone. This is high quality, good value and comes with a built in aquarium. Highly recommended.
Beautiful museum! It has numerous great aquariums, interesting exhibitions about ships, harbors, fishermen, etc... This museum is perfect for children and for sea 's lovers and..yes...I suggest with pleasure this incredible museum. The cost of the museum is 40 sek and the closest tram stop is Stibergstorget.
An excellent museum with a massive collection of Ship Models ranging from the oldest to the latest ones. Excellently maintained and showcases true history.
Our children loved it. Dressing up, looking at model boats, an aquarium and info about fishing. A worthwhile visit with young kids. The 'play room' could have done with more toys though (just a few soft toys).
Sjöfartsmuseet and aquarium in Gothenburg are slightly outside the main tourist streets, but is by no means a good reason to miss them! They can be easily reached with trams 3, 9 and 11. Entrance is included in the yearly ticket that one can get visiting any of the museums: Göteborgs konstmuseum, Göteborgs stadsmuseum, Röhsska museet och Naturhistoriska museet. Staring... 更多
Visited with 4 grandchildren. The Place centered on the Young. Aqarium and ship simulator were highlights. Very good and educational on environment. Admission was almost for free. Og and see!
A must visit for old and young, they have something for each and everyone. Lots of focus on kids in all ages, with a small aquarium and several areas there kids can play and learn. For us adults it's a place to stroll for a couple of hours.
A good start to learn something about the city. The shipping was the reason for it to be built. A... 更多

The second-round draft pick fractured his skull in late July when he fell down two flights of stairs in Austin, Texas, and was hospitalized. He improved rapidly in August, eventually reaching the point where he was transferred to a rehab hospital in his hometown of Dallas and was cleared to travel.
"I had faith that I would get well," Kindle told the Carroll County Times in his first interview since his serious accident. "I'm confident that I'll be cleared, but I don't have the final say. In my opinion, it went well.
"The doctors are going to give what they need to the team and they they'll make their decision on how they handle it. They didn't really tell me nothing. They're going to go over it when I leave. I'm ready to see what happens."
Kindle said that he underwent a series of cognitive tests, neurological and psychological exams.
"It's a whole bunch of stuff," he said. "It lasts like five or six hours."
Kindle said that he'll return to Dallas in the morning. He remains unsigned and won't be given a contract until he passes his physical.
"We'll see how that ends up," Kindle said.
Kindle said the accident transpired at a friend's house in the middle of the night because he couldn't see where he was going in the darkness while trying to find the bathroom. He emphasized that he wasn't drinking.
"It wasn't really a function, we were just relaxing," Kindle said. "It was a big house. I should have turned the lights on. I was walking around blindly. All I had to turn was the lights on. I got up to go the restroom."
Kindle said the cut on his head that he suffered during the fall was roughly one inch long and required staples in his skull for a few weeks.
The former University of Texas star said he has never lost his belief that he would play again.
"I don't think that part every crossed my mind," Kindle said. "Faith is very important, regardless. It always helps."
Kindle said he appreciates all of the support he has received from family, friends, the University of Texas and the Ravens, including teammates and the coaching staff.
"Just to have that moral support means a lot to me," Kindle said. "It's always good."
A former All-Big 12 selection, Kindle acknowledged that it's a long road back from such a serious injury to play the game again and that he'll have a major learning curve if he's cleared to return.
If Kindle is allowed to play, he could possibly provide a pass-rushing threat for a team that just traded outside linebacker Antwan Barnes to the Philadelphia Eagles. His health is the first priority, though, and the team will be extremely cautious with his recovery.
"The first thing is I hope to get on the team soon," Kindle said. "Whenever they think I'm ready to play, I hope to go out there and play. I need to learn the playbook all over again.
"I haven't seen it since minicamp. Basically, I've got a lot of catching up to do. Whenever my time comes, I'm going to make it happen."

Indigenous Groups Fight Back Against Oil Industry after Pipeline Spills Poison the AmazonFebruary 25, 2015Fusion
No one ever expected Cuninico, a small riverside fishing village tucked in the heart of the world's largest rainforest, to run out of drinking water. But it happened last June. Since then this remote Amazon hamlet has relied on state-run oil company PetroPeru to deliver shipments of bottled water from the nearest city, nine hours down river.
Dams or Indigenous Land: The Battle over the Munduruku FrontierFebruary 20, 2015Mongabay.com
The Munduruku indigenous tribe have begun to mark out the limits of their land, in an action that could halt the giant São Luiz do Tapajós hydroelectric dam, the apple of the Brazilian government's eye.
Peru Planning Highway Through Most Biodiverse Place on Earth
Manu national park in the Amazon under threat from extension of national "jungle highway"February 12, 2015The Guardian
The Manu national park and its buffer zone in Peru was international news early last year after scientists found it is "top of the [world's] list of natural protected areas in terms of amphibian and reptile diversity", beating off stiff competition from the Yasuni national park in neighbouring Ecuador. What these news reports didn't acknowledge, not surprisingly, are the immense threats facing Manu – a Unesco biosphere reserve in the south-east Peruvian Amazon where Unesco states the biodiversity "exceeds that of any other place on earth".
Deep in the Amazon, a Tiny Tribe Is Beating Big Oil
The people of Sarayaku are a leading force in 21st century indigenous resistance, engaging the western world politically, legally, and philosophically.February 12, 2015Yes! Magazine
Sarayaku lies in southern Ecuador, where the government is selling drilling rights to a vast swath of indigenous lands – except for Sarayaku. The community has become a beacon of hope to other indigenous groups and to global climate change activists as it mobilizes to stop a new round of oil exploration.
Here's Why Deforestation in the Amazon May Bring More Frequent, More Intense Droughts to BrazilFebruary 5, 2015VICE News

Peru's Indigenous Communities Are Fighting Back Against Environmental Contamination by Seizing Oil WellsFebruary 3, 2015VICE
A conflict is raging in Peru's Amazon forests between indigenous groups and an Argentinian oil company. The Amazon dwellers have halted drilling and blockaded a jungle road for two weeks in protest of what they claim is a decades-long environmental catastrophe.
Peru's Indigenous People Protest Against Relicensing of Oil Concession
Kichwa communities bar River Tigre, an Amazon tributary, with cables to stop oil company boats from passing and accuse government of turning a blind eye to contamination from oil operations in the forestFebruary 2, 2015The Guardian
Hundreds of indigenous people deep in the Peruvian Amazon are blocking a major Amazon tributary following what they say is the government's failure to address a social and environmental crisis stemming from oil operations.

The construction of mega-dams involves grave human rights violations as well as other disastrous socio-environmental impacts.

And the Lifetime Award for Shameful Corporate Behavior Goes to... ChevronJanuary 23, 2015Common Dreams
As global elites gather in Davos, Switzerland for the World Economic Forum, the oil giant Chevron was singled out on Friday for a highly competitive – if unflattering – international distinction: the Public Eye Lifetime Award for its extraordinary corporate irresponsibility, which includes monumental environmental destruction in northern Ecuador.
Battle for the Tapajós: Brazil's Construction of Hydroelectric Dams Threatens the Munduruku PeopleJanuary 9, 2015Global Voices
The removal of indigenous peoples is prohibited by Article 231 of the Brazilian Constitution. In the project's defense, the government argues that since Sawré Muybu was never officially demarcated it cannot be recognized as Munduruku land – provoking the wrath of warriors and village chiefs all across the Tapajós basin.

Alendronate Treatment in Men With Primary Osteoporosis: A Three-Year Longitudinal Study

Bisphosphonates have been widely used in the treatment of osteoporosis in women, whereas until now there have been few data on their use in men. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a 3-year alendronate treatment on bone mineral density (BMD) and quantitative ultrasound (QUS) in men with primary osteoporosis. We studied 77 osteoporotic men (aged 57.1 ± 10.8 yrs) who completed a 3-year treatment with alendronate (10 mg/day) plus calcium (1000 mg/day) (n = 39), or calcium alone (n = 38). At baseline and at a 12-month interval, we measured BMD at the lumbar spine and femur (femoral neck and total hip) by DXA (Hologic) and speed of sound (SOS), broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA) and Stiffness (S) at the os calcis by Achilles plus (Lunar). Alendronate treatment had significantly increased lumbar spine BMD by 4.2% at year 1, by 6.3% at year 2, and 8.8% at year 3. BMD at the femoral neck and total hip had increased by 2.1% and 1.6% at year 1, by 3.2% and 2.9% at year 2, and by 4.2% and 3.9% at year 3, respectively. BUA and Stiffness showed a significant increase in the alendronate-treated group at year 2 (3.2% and 4.9%, respectively) and at year 3 (3.8% and 6%, respectively). BMD at the lumbar spine showed the best longitudinal sensitivity whereas longitudinal sensitivity of both QUS at the heel and femur BMD were similar. In conclusion, this study confirms that alendronate represents an important therapeutic advance in the management of male osteoporosis. BMD at the lumbar spine appears to be the best method for monitoring the effect of alendronate on bone mass in osteoporotic men.

Skip to comments.An Armed Standoff in Nevada Is Only the Beginning for Americas Right-Wing Militias (Barf thou wilt)
Posted on 04/20/2014 2:42:44 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet
For two decades the US government has tried to get Cliven Bundy to remove his cows from federal land, and for two decades the Nevada rancher has steadfastly refused, defying court orders and attempts to negotiate a settlement for the $1.1 million he owes in federal grazing fees.
Finally, last week, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) took matters into its own hands and started seizing cattle that had been illegally grazing on government property. Things went downhill from there.
What began as an arcane land dispute rapidly escalated into an armed standoff in the desert. A ragtag band of anti-government militants, Tea Party politicians, and Old West ranchers descended on the area, responding to a call to arms posted by the Bundy family on their blog and circulated throughout the internet by conservatives and libertarians.
Spurred on by YouTube videos of physical altercations between federal agents and the Bundys, the protesters aggressively confronted law enforcement, which in turn escalated things by gathering a huge force of armed BLM rangers and FBI agents.
On Friday, the Federal Aviation Administration placed a month-long flight restriction over the ranch after the Bundy family posted aerial photos of the assembled authorities.
For right-wing militias and paramilitary groups founded around a collective paranoid belief that the federal government is just looking for an excuse to impose martial law, images of armed federal agents forcibly seizing cows basically means it's DEFCON 1.
By Saturday, as many as 1,000 anti-BLM protestors from as far away as Virginia, New Hampshire, and Georgia had set up camp in Bunkerville, an arid patch of land where the BLM was rounding up the Bundy cattle.
Packing handguns and assault rifles, the protesters carried signs featuring slogans like Tyranny Is Alive, Where's the Justice? and Militia Sighn In [sic]," and many said they were prepared for a shoot-out with the federal government. The mood was such that even Glenn Beck was wary of the crowd, announcing on his show that there's about 10 or 15 percent of the people who are talking about this online that are truly frightening."
We were prepared to do whatever it takes to protect their cattle, and their ranch, and their home, said protester Richard Mack, a former Arizona sheriff who is on the board of Oath Keepers, a militia founded by a former Ron Paul aide and made up mostly of current and former US military personnel and law enforcement. The government was prepared to do anything, including shooting at unarmed people." (On Monday Mack told Fox News that organizers had been strategizing to put all the women up front in a firefight so that the image of the BLM shooting women would be televised.)
The government blinked first, announcing Saturday afternoon that it would stop seizing Bundys cattle because of "grave concern about the safety of our employees and members of the public." A few hours later, protesters stormed the BLM's corrals, demanding that the bureau release the 400 cows it had already captured.
"Everyone was up there trying to get the cattle back and the BLM and all of the agents kept yelling, 'Step closer and we'll shoot!' Everybody had their hands up, and we just kept moving forward," said protester Kevin Gillman, a 24-year-old military veteran who volunteered with the state militia coalition Operation Mutual Aid at Bundy Ranch. "They ended up releasing the cattle, because it was either that or shoot us."
The government described the situation slightly differently. Due to escalating tensions, the cattle have been released from the enclosures in order to avoid violence and help restore order," BLM Director Neil Kornze said in a statement.
Bundys allies have cautiously declared victory, although most of the protesters I spoke to remain predictably suspicious that the stand-down was just another government ruse to lure them into complacency. "We don't want to be taken by surprise by another onslaught, so we're still being careful," Mack said. He estimated that about a third of the protesters had remained at Bundy Ranch this week to provide "security."
Emboldened by the strong showing in Nevada, right-wing militia organizers are now looking to capitalize on the momentum, hosting marathon conference calls in which hundreds of militia volunteers strategize and coordinate their next big move.
"There have been more organizations putting out the word about what's going on, how the [federal government] is taking away our freedoms and liberties," said Gillman, who is one of roughly 400 new volunteers to join Operation Mutual Aid in recent days. Gillman added that he hadn't known much about the militia movement before last week.
"Most of them are just citizens who want to go out and help the cause of other Americans in need who don't have backup," he said of his right-wing comrades. "I wouldn't necessarily say it's a militia, but we did bring our guns out there, because the federal agents went out there with their sniper rifles and their guns. We're just going to be prepared for whatever [the government] wants to do. It's hard to talk to someone who has a gun unless you have one yourself."
Meanwhile, the tenuous stalemate has basically put the BLM right back where it started. In a statement I was given on Tuesday, the agency insisted that it had not cut a deal with Bundy and that it would still try to force the rancher into compliance through administrative and legal channels. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Nevada Democrat, also weighed in on the conflict this week, telling Renos NBC affiliate KRNV that the conflict isn't finished.
We cant have an American people that violate the law and then just walk away from it, Reid said. So its not over.
Legally, Bundy doesnt have a leg to stand on. His disagreement with the federal government dates back to 1993, when he stopped paying federal grazing fees in response to new regulations aimed at protecting the desert tortoise habitat in Golden Butte, a federally owned 600,000-acre swath of land northeast of Las Vegas where Bundys family has been raising cattle since his Mormon ancestors settled there, in the late 1800s. In response, the BLM revoked Bundys permit and sued him twice in federal court. Both times, a judge ordered Bundy to get his cows off public land or face fines of $200 per head for each day that he refused to comply. The government now claims that Bundy owes $1.1 million in fines and grazing fees. (The right-wing website Breitbart has compiled all of the court orders and provided a lengthy analysis here.)
In response, Bundy has argued that the federal government doesnt actually own the land in question, and thus doesnt have the right to tell him what to do with his cows. The land, he says, actually belongs to the state of Nevada a claim that is very obviously untrue.
I think this is the sovereign state of Nevada, Bundy told conservative talk-radio host Dana Loesch Thursday. I abide by all Nevada state laws. But I dont recognize the United States government as even existing.
Bundys larger point that the feds shouldnt own 80 percent of the land in Nevada, or nearly 50 percent of land in 11 Western states demonstrates the long-running tension over states rights and federal land-use policies that invariably pick winners and losers among environmental and business interests. Even if Bundy wanted to pay the government fines, he would still be forced to remove his cows from Butte Gold thanks to a 1998 conservation deal that eliminated grazing in the area in exchange for allowing the county to destroy desert tortoise habitats for private development. Bundy is now the sole surviving cattle rancher in Clark County.
At the same time, environmentalists have criticized the BLM for not dealing with the Bundys' trespass cattle sooner, and they were outraged this week when the agency called off the roundup. The BLM monumentally failed to remove the trespass cattle, collect fees, or protect the land for more than 20 years, Rob Mrowka, a senior scientist at the Center for Biological Diversity, said in a statement. Now it backed down in the face of threats and posturing of armed so-called sovereignists. This is absolutely pathetic and an insult to ranchers and others who hold permits and pay their required fees to use the public lands.
For most of the Bundys' far-right allies, though, the showdown in Nevada wasnt as much about the rancher and his land as it was a flashpoint in their growing beef with the federal government.
"Progressively, the federal government is just getting stronger," Gillman said. "I don't understand why they need to go out there with 200 federal agents and set up sniper positions. I don't see the need for the federal government to take up guns against its own people.
"We're willing to go as far as they are willing to go," he added. "We're not here for violence... But if they're coming in, guns blaring, to hurt citizens, then we're just going to defend ourselves. We're not going to go out and attack or anything. When someone goes in and takes away your freedoms, the only thing you can do is stand up against them. If you don't stand up against them, how far will they go?"
It's gotta start somewhere.
Moses said " Let my cattle go!"
After all, we're all just property of the government, and once we've outlived our use to the government, it's time for us to be "retired, right Grace?
"A ragtag band of anti-government militants..."
I call BS on this one. These folks are NOT anti-government. They ARE anti-criminal-government.
They ARE anti-over-reaching-government.
They ARE anti-senseless-bureaucracy.
They ARE anti-intrusive-government.
Get things back within the confines of the Constitution, and these folks will be content to busy themselves with things other than facing down a government invasion of a single rancher who (fedgov believes) owes a debt to the gubmint.
There were trouble with the Tories in the first revolution. There people are no different from them and should be treated the same as the old Tories were
Speaking of Reid. I noticed he is not calling for hearings.
What is Reid hiding that he does not want hearings to uncover?
The leviathan that is Fedgov could have easily utilized lot of nasty bureaucratic methods to get their way, they chose SWAT teams.
The "Right-Wing Militias" did not set whatever chain of events (present and future) in motion, a bunch of men with badges, titles, and gear did.
GOOD one!
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness; That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.Next these pro-government drones will be treating George Santayana, never mind the Founding Fathers, like Unpersons.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
It sounds like the opening line from BATTLESTAR GALACTICA.
I can guess the ages of those in charge...MY age. Lol.
Reid owns several of the parcels surrounding the Bundy ranch, through an LLC.
Funny they never mention the Hutaree when they rant about the dangerous right wing militias.
All were acquitted and the leader nominated and elected Constable of his home town.
Enough people are on there skewering the article. There are a few liberal drones on there with hollow defenses (the usual "Bundy broke the law" sans specifics), but they look like fools in the face of it all.
Grace,....that's a good thing.
Speaking of Reid. I noticed he is not calling for hearings.
What is Reid hiding that he does not want hearings to uncover?
I think he is vulnerable on this, at least at this moment. The whole thing was shut down almost immediately after The Reids names came up in this matter. Yes, the Bundys' support from all over America was a factor, but the *utter* abandonment of this intended massacre when Reid's name came to light is telling.
When Black Panthers go about armed, it is nothing but cool.
Reid is not denying anything, either.
Methinks Grace is vying for a seat in the CPUSA.
Apparently, Reid is oblivious to 95% of what Obama has done in the past five years (and before). Between violating the law, refusing to enforce the law as written, unilaterally rewriting the law, and trampling the Constitution, there is a whole lot for Reid to look into with Obama before he worries about grazing fees (if we're willing to pretend that Reid actually cares about the rule of law).
Right on, Brother.
No we wont be generals or commanders, or even high powered staffers. We will likely still be Majors, passed over twice, sitting in dimly-lit offices in the basement of the pentagon, with longer than regulation haircuts, rumpled uniforms, unkempt mustaches and a bottle of scotch in the bottom right-hand drawer of our desks. We will be the most powerful men in the Army because we will be Majors getting ready to retire with nothing to lose by telling you exactly what we think, consequences be damned We will be the most dangerous men in the Army.
The Feds have to arrest the protesters or this will spread. Reid knows this just as Janet Reno understood back in the Clinton years. Justice has nothing to do with it, this is about power. Don't turn your back on these Aholes.
Since Grace is not useful to the Patriot movement, a case could be made for her "retirement" as well!
I agree with you. The kleptocrats that animate the Washington regime have put themselves in a situation where they lose either way. Let is go, which signals weakness and invites more defiance, or double down to prove their supremacy and autocracy, which will further temper and harden hatred against them. Geniuses. They could have skimmed forever, but they want to plunder it all right now.
No, the Feds have to kill them. Other than that, the rest of your analysis applies. They have to be dealt with violently and ruthlessly. which is just down the FBI's alley. Every FBI Agent has homicidal tendencies and they enjoy murdering unarmed and helpless women and children to the point of sexual orgasm. And the thrill they get from burning children alive surpasses the thrill of virginal sex.
For two decades, the BLM and rancher Bundy have been in court.
The government is trying to collect over $1 million in fines accumulated during the period that Bundy's claim of legal rights have been before the courts.
There, I think that fixes up the introduction.
The dems think this Reids: "..., it is the Right of Obama to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, ..."
That's what Obama has been doing with his selective enforcement and rewrites of the laws.
This doesn't include all of the gang bangers in the cities I suppose.
Memo to Grace: To the best of anyone's knowledge there were no fibbies at the standoff. Also no militia from GA as far as I know. But they just gotta get the word Georgia in there so as to make it look like a a bunch of redneck confederates were there.
Expect an all out smear attack on militias from the state run media from now on. Obumbles has sent out the word. This has been SOP since the 70's. They like to get Mr. and Mrs. America prepared so when they go in and slaughter a bunch of people well they were anti government kooks.
Yes, three times. ;-)
Anniversary Yesterday - 21 years ago.
This is what people like this author want to see under democrat presidents:
Federal alphabet agencies backed by the US Army and the National Guard killing civilians over a civil matter.
The US Government murdered more children at Waco, Texas than were killed at Sandy Hook.
The BATF and FBI backed by the US Army killed 22 children at Waco by shooting them and burning them to death.
Where is the outrage?
And then the fighting is going to be everywhere!
If any of my kin worked for the government I would be helping them to find another job. Unless of course I was their beneficiary and needed some tax free cash.
IIRC, the tank photo is a "Photoshop" job. Appreciate the point being made, but let's stick with unedited reality when available. There's a good image of a tank smashing a building; no need to fake a column of them.
You are mistaken.
Are you saying you believe that Army tanks were not used at the Waco massacre?
Do you believe videos of tanks in use at the Waco attack were also photoshopped?
Watch this one at 3:55
Watch this one
There are too many eyewitness accounts, photographs and videos of the Army tanks actively participating in the slaughter for anyone to deny that they were used.
This one must be another photoshop.....
If you put a sniper on someone, you're not looking to arrest them.
Their snipers should beware.
Former snipers might be out there.
Who are really pissed off.
And better trained.
And don't give a damn.
just saying.
Nonsense. A march on Washington, completely disarmed, scared NOBODY in the federal apparatus. Nobody.
The armed confrontation, on the contrary, scared President
Valerie Jarrett Obama so much that the BLM goons were called off.
This article is just the media projecting their cowardice on the BLM agents, and trying to goad them into re-engaging. The commie-libs want our blood, but are too cowardly to do it themselves.
That's weird. The Wikipedia page on the "Bundy standoff" doesn't say ANYTHING about "a huge force of armed BLM rangers and FBI agents".
When they finally got "mentioned" late in the article, the BLM agents (no FBI agents!) were "heavily equipped", but the article didn't say what they "equipped" with. JellyBellies? Snickers bars? We'll never know...
Oh, Good God.
If I had a buck for every time I've heard Glenn Beck say "truly frightening", I could have retired by now.
Read my post again. I said _that_photo_ was faked. I didn't say tanks weren't used. Don't use faked photos when real ones will do.
" And then the fighting is going to be everywhere!"
I hope not. ,skirmishes will end in vain. Good people will die in vain.
Martyrdom is not the answer we need to restore our rights.
For the time being, surviving should be everyone's goal.
The tide will turn eventually.
How's that for cliche of the day?
If there were a normal human in the oval office you would be right, unfortunately what we have is a man who wants to destroy the Republic. Knowing this we, in Maine, came to the conclusion that our seceding would not result in anything but noise coming out of Washington, for our seceding, while making Maine a free and independent Christian nation, would cause obama no concern, for it doesn't care how the Republic is destroyed, only that it is destroyed.
obama wants civil war, he wants to kill as many patriots and Christians as it and it's followers can, leaving only a dependent lower class of serfs and slaves to serve it and it's elites.
If the militias go head to head with the military and obama's civilian police forces, it will be a bloody mess, but if the Militias are smart enough to go after the head(s) of the snake, it may be a different story.
If the civil war starts before our secession vote on June 12, 2018, we are with you, but if after we secede, we cannot be with you, see the Militia clause of the Constitution that takes effect the microsecond we hit 50% plus one vote at MaineTV.net
My Friend, our military are our family, friends, and neighbors .
I hope it doesn't come to bloodshed of any kind. Voting them out is the path to restoring the country.
That, my friend is in the hands of the g0vt.

text: Home > Sports Hatton expected to make boxing comeback ABS-CBN News Posted at Sep 12 2012 06:49 PM | Updated as of Sep 13 2012 02:49 AM Share Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest MANILA, Philippines – Former world champion Ricky "The Hitman" Hatton fanned rumors that he is set to make a boxing comeback after the British boxer released a statement saying he will make a "major announcement" this Friday. According to Boxing Scene, the statement did not mention any of the boxers in Hatton's promotional stable, leading many to speculate that Hatton will use the press conference to officially announce his return. Hatton officially retired last year, but he has not fought since 2009 after losing via a second round knockout to Filipino ring icon Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao. The British boxer also struggled with alcoholism and depression following his loss to Pacquiao, but has since turned his life around and focused on being a boxing promoter. Rumors that Hatton will be making a boxing comeback started earlier this year when it was reported that the fighter was slowly getting back into shape. It is widely speculated that if he does returns to boxing, his first fight will be held on November 24 at the MEN Arena in Manchester against a yet to be named opponent. Hatton won titles at the light-welterweight and welterweight division. Aside from Pacquiao, his only other career loss came at the hands of unbeaten American Floyd Mayweather Jr. in 2007. Hatton won The RING Magazine's Fighter of the Year award in 2005.

Sep 11 Posted 3 years ago
Steve, while I love your stuff and think you are one of the smartest guys around, this is not a black or white argument. The point is that sales are and should be the ultimate goal of brand and relationship building.
If you are trying to say doing a hard sell all the time is wrong, then I agree. But, others and I do not read your article that way.
It is marketing's job to drive sales. Brand building and relationship building are 2 of many important ways marketers can do this as buyers go through the funnel or buyer's journey.
Great or even good content sells by doing just that – building the brand, creating relationships and getting customers to go from conversation to commerce. I personally have dozens of examples from my own work as well as tens of thousands of others from around the Web I can show you where brands:
- Engaged with their markets (both B2B and B2C) with content
- Educated, informed and drove brand perceptions without selling at all
- All while using the content to track traffic, offer codes, leads and increased sales
My personal favorite (this week anyway) is about the guy in Virginia who created a 30-page eBook on Pools and saw his sales skyrocket: see it here. It is well worth the read and there is little or no selling in his overall approach.
This is what great content marketing is: providing relevant content that gets consumers or businesses to engage, think and act to drive business goals.

Hack of San Bernardino attacker's iPhone raises big questions
After the attack in San Bernardino last December that killed 14 people and wounded 22 others, the FBI hired a private hacker to unlock the iPhone of one of the two dead terrorists. Perhaps the FBI learned some of Syed Rizwan Farook's evil secrets.

Sign AB2170 to ease Southland freight congestion
When Southern Californians get excited these days about once again hearing those lonesome whistles blow, it's usually because a new Metro light-rail line is opening, or they are discovering a Metrolink line for longer travel — or they are properly railing against the boondoggle the plans for a bullet train north have become.
From Trump, a new low in politicians' bid to squelch bad press
Like much about his campaign, Donald Trump's threat to sue The New York Times over unflattering coverage would be amusing if its implications weren't so serious.

LAPD Preservation of Life award is a proper prize
The public is accustomed to, and properly appreciative of, police department ceremonies in which particularly brave officers are lauded for their valor in the line of duty.

Losing weapons — and control — in the Middle East
On the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, we remember those who were lost, and those whose lives were forever changed on that fateful day. But we also look back on our actions in response to the attack, particularly our military involvement throughout the Middle East, and cannot help but wonder if it truly has served American interests or accomplished the goals that were set out.
For business, California is still a rank outsider
Economic growth depends largely on the dynamism and innovation of new businesses, yet the U.S. has seen a steady decline in entrepreneurship over the past 30 years.

Here's how to save the mountain lions of L.A.

Do you want Trump to soften his views and tone? Question of the Week
After Donald Trump clinched the Republican Party's presidential nomination, many wondered if he would change his message to try to appeal to more voters. Our Question of the Week for readers is: Do you want Trump to soften his views and his tone? If he did, would you be more likely or less likely to vote for him? Would adopting more moderate positions on some issues help to show he's politically adept and that his proposals are not as dangerous and impractical as opponents claim? Or would pulling back from his unconventional stands on some issues hurt the self-proclaimed Washington, D.
California transportation needs budget, efficiency reforms, not more taxes
Transportation is critical to the California economy and quality of life, but it is regularly given short shrift by legislators in Sacramento.

The crime is that gifts to L.A. DA Lacey are allowed
Los Angeles County District Attorney Jackie Lacey is lucky this didn't come up in a year when she faced an election challenge.

Return schools to a post-Labor Day start
What specious arguments Southern California school districts have concocted as they reschedule their academic years to begin five weeks or more before summer is over.

Gaming the system in Pasadena City Hall
