UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, APPELLEE,v.ARNO SASCHA JAKOBSON, APPELLANT.
Before LUMBARD, Chief Judge, and FRIENDLY and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
FRIENDLY, Circuit Judge.
Arno Sascha Jakobson appeals from a judgment, entered in the Southern District of New York by Judge Palmieri, sitting without a jury, convicting him of refusal to submit to induction for combatant training as ordered by his Selective Service System Local Board, in violation of 50 U.S.C.App. § 462(a). He maintains that the notice of induction was invalid under § 6(j) of the Universal Military Training and Service Act, 50 U.S.C.App. § 456(j), which provides that the Selective Service Act shall not "be construed to require any person to be subject to combatant training and service in the armed forces of the United States who, by reason of religious training and belief, is conscientiously opposed to participation in war in any form. Religious training and belief in this connection means an individual's belief in a relation to a Supreme Being involving duties superior to those arising from any human relation, but does not include essentially political, sociological, or philosophical views or a merely personal moral code."
Jakobson's parents were Jews who migrated to the United States in his early youth. When about 13 years of age, he became estranged from the Jewish faith, avowedly because of his distaste for what he considered the "bloodthirsty nationalism" exhibited in certain portions of the Old Testament, such as the Book of Joshua. He registered with his Local Board on September 2, 1953, a few days after his eighteenth birthday. In his classification questionnaire he made no claim of conscientious objection in the item provided for that purpose but did claim physical disqualification because of a back injury, a claim which he supported shortly thereafter by a note from his physician. When his Local Board classified him 1-A, he sought and obtained a student deferment, a status in which, save for one short interval, he remained until February 9, 1956, when he was reclassified 1-A. Nearly two years later he was ordered to report for a preinduction physical examination. He presented a second physician's certificate describing his back condition but was found qualified for service and was so notified by the Local Board on March 18, 1958.
A month later Jakobson advised the Local Board that he believed himself exempt as a conscientious objector. With a 15-page addendum and three supporting letters, he filed the Special Form for Conscientious Objectors (SSS Form 150), claiming exemption from combatant service only; he answered the question "Do you believe in a Supreme Being" in the affirmative, with explanations of which we shall say more hereafter. At a hearing before the Local Board in the fall, he stated that even noncombatant service would result in "too many situations and relationships that would be a strain on my conscience * * *" and sought a 1-O classification which would exempt him from all military service but would subject him to a like period of civilian work contributing to the maintenance of the national health, safety, or interest; he also filed with the Board a 43-page discussion of his views.
The Local Board did not question Jakobson's sincerity but concluded that his claim was not based upon religious training and belief as defined in the statute; somewhat inconsistently with this view, it granted him classification 1-A-O, for noncombatant service, to which he was entitled only if he met the statutory test. Jakobson appealed. The Appeal Board tentatively determined that he was not entitled to classification as a conscientious objector in any form, and forwarded the file for an advisory recommendation by the Department of Justice, 32 C.F.R. § 1626.25(b). After an investigation by a hearing officer, and a generally favorable F.B.I. report on the evaluation of Jakobson by his acquaintances, the Department made the following recommendation to the Appeal Board:
"The Hearing Officer concluded that the registrant is not opposed to participation in combatant or noncombatant military training and service by reason of his religious training and belief; that his claim is based upon a personal moral code and that he is not sincere in his claim. He recommended that the appeal of the registrant based upon grounds of conscientious objection be not sustained.
"The Department of Justice finds that the registrant's claim is not sustained. It, therefore, recommends that the registrant's claim be not sustained by your Board."
Jakobson then sent a further communication to the Appeal Board, again explaining why he regarded his convictions as religious and seeking to excuse his tardiness in advancing his conscientious objection claim (and the change in his request from a 1-A-O to a 1-O classification). One reason offered was that when about six months before his pre-induction physical examination, he inquired of the clerk of the Local Board as to qualifications for a conscientious objector exemption, he was told this was given "only to individuals with a long and overtly-provable pacifist background" who could produce letters from ministers; he added that since his family background was not pacifist, he had been forced to face this difficult problem by himself, "from scratch," when it arose. On December 9, 1958, the Appeal Board classified him 1-A. After unsuccessful efforts to carry the matter further, he was ordered to submit to induction, but, on completion of his induction physical, refused to take the step forward which symbolizes submission to induction. For this refusal he was indicted and convicted.
The Department of Justice had recommended denial of Jakobson's claim on two grounds: that he lacked sincerity, and that his objections were not based on religious training and belief within the meaning of the statute. The Appeal Board did not indicate on what ground it relied. If we were certain that the denial of exemption rested on a finding of insincerity, Jakobson's five year delay in claiming conscientious objection and his shift of position after making the claim would oblige us to affirm his conviction. The finality which the Act bestows on the decisions of the local and appeal boards, 50 U.S.C.App. § 460(b) (3), precludes judicial rejection of their findings as invalid unless "there is no basis in fact for the classification" given to the registrant, Estep v. United States, 327 U.S. 114, 122-123, 66 S. Ct. 423, 427, 90 L. Ed. 567 (1946), and "any fact which casts doubt on the veracity of the registrant is relevant." Witmer v. United States, 348 U.S. 375, 381-382, 75 S. Ct. 392, 395-396, 99 L. Ed. 428 (1955). In Jakobson's case, as in Witmer's, there were enough "objective facts before the Appeal Board to * * * cast doubt on the sincerity of his claim," 348 U.S. at 382, 75 S. Ct. at 396, 99 L. Ed. 428, see also United States v. Corliss, 280 F.2d 808, [Heise] 812, [Herold] 816 (2 Cir.), cert. denied, 364 U.S. 884, 81 S. Ct. 167, 5 L. Ed. 2d 105 (1960). It is immaterial that on the cold record alone we would not have found Jakobson insincere or that the Local Board, which saw him, did not doubt his honesty. The resolution of conflicting inferences from personal observation and from the undisputed history was for the Appeal Board, as, indeed, it would be even if the scope of judicial inquiry were considerably broader than it is here. See F.C.C. v. Allentown Broadcasting Corp., 349 U.S. 358, 364-365, 75 S. Ct. 855, 99 L. Ed. 1147 (1955).
On the other hand, if the Appeal Board, although believing Jakobson to be sincere, based its classification on the ground that his conscientious objection was not the result of religious training and belief, we would be compelled to reverse the conviction and direct dismissal of the indictment. For we rule it an erroneous construction of the statute to conclude that Jakobson's beliefs fell outside its definition of religion.
To summarize Jakobson's religious views is not altogether easy. He begins by defining religion as the sum and essence of one's basic attitudes to the fundamental problems of human existence. He recognizes an ultimate cause or creator of all existence which he terms "Godness." In theory an individual's relationship to Godness can take one or the other of two forms, a "vertical" relationship in which man relates directly to Godness, or a "horizontal" one in which man relates to Godness indirectly by binding himself to the qualities of Godness that exist in every creation in Mankind and throughout the world. For himself Jakobson rejects the vertical "one-to-one" relationship because God is unknowable to man, and because action and spiritual growth purportedly based on a direct relationship with Godness must thus lead to error since man can reason but imperfectly about the unfathomable. Moreover, he finds objectionable the egocentric two-dimensional view which the vertical relationship fosters. For him Godness can be approached only through psychic involvement in the three-dimensional world. Inward turning causes spiritual diminution, egocentricity, and passive "putting up with" the evils of the world rather than an active attempt to change it. The way to arrive closer to Godness is by approaching the universals inherent in existence. The individual must deal directly with life, death, health, love, time - the "givens" of existence stemming from the Ultimate Cause - as he finds them in himself and others.
Jakobson sees himself as faced with an inescapable choice between acceptance or rejection of the order of the universe; for him this is the central problem of religion. He explains the positions of acceptance and rejection by reference to the characters of Ivan and Zossima in "The Brothers Karamazov." Ivan accepts God but rejects the world because of the evil in it; he can go on living and can love particular individuals, but can only withdraw from the evil that he sees. Ivan doesn't oppose but passively and unhappily acquiesces; with such a position one could go to war by disavowing any personal responsibility. Zossima represents acceptance, which Jakobson defines as total affirmation of the basic blessedness of the fact of being - of goodness and "yesness." The taking of human life is incompatible with acceptance, which sees in all humanity "Godness" - the quality of having been created by the Ultimate Cause. Jakobson adopts the position of acceptance.
The definition of "religious training and belief" in § 6(j), somewhat unusual for a statute, is the end product of a long development. Without going back further into history, we shall start with the Draft Act of 1917, 40 Stat. 78. This exempted "a member of any well-recognized religious sect or organization at present organized and existing and whose existing creed or principles forbid its members to participate in war in any form and whose religious convictions are against war or participation therein in accordance with the creed or principles of said religious organization * * *" The constitutionality of this provision under the First Amendment was upheld, rather summarily, in Arver v. United States, 245 U.S. 366, 389-390, 38 S. Ct. 159, 62 L. Ed. 349 (1918). The corresponding provision in the bills that became the Selective Service Act of 1940 were similarly restrictive.*fn1 However, in the course of enactment Congress broadened the clause to exempt from combatant training any person "who, by reason of religious training and belief, is conscientiously opposed to participation in war in any form * * *," 54 Stat. 889;*fn2 "religious training and belief" was left undefined.
In United States v. Kauten, 133 F.2d 703 (2 Cir. 1943), this court was concerned with a claim to exemption by an atheist whose objection to military service stemmed primarily from a belief that this country's involvement in World War II was a political scheme of President Roosevelt. In denying Kauten's claim Judge Augustus N. Hand said that "The provisions of the present statute * * * take into account the characteristics of a skeptical generation and make the existence of a conscientious scruple against war in any form, rather than allegiance to a definite religious group or creed, the basis of exemption." He distinguished between "a course of reasoning resulting in a conviction that a particular war is inexpedient or disastrous," the most that Kauten had, and "a conscientious objection to participation in any war under any circumstances * * * a response of the individual to an inward mentor, call it conscience or God, that is for many persons at the present time the equivalent of what has always been thought a religious impulse," 133 F.2d at 708. We applied this view to grant exemption in United States ex rel. Phillips v. Downer, 135 F.2d 521 (2 Cir. 1943) and held it determinative in United States ex rel. Reel v. Badt, 141 F.2d 845 (2 Cir. 1944). Soon afterwards, however, the Ninth Circuit denied Herman Berman's right to exemption, although his views came closer to Phillips' and Reel's than to Kauten's. Berman v. United States, 9 Cir., 156 F.2d 377, cert. denied 329 U.S. 795, 67 S. Ct. 480, 91 L. Ed. 680 (1946). In the course of its opinion, the court quoted a phrase in Chief Justice Hughes' dissent in United States v. Macintosh, 283 U.S. 605, 633-634, 51 S. Ct. 570, 75 L. Ed. 1302 (1931), that "The essence of religion is belief in a relation to God involving duties superior to those arising from any human relation," and added that an individual's "philosophy and morals and social policy without the concept of deity cannot be said to be religion in the sense of that term as it is used in the statute." 156 F.2d at 381. These two statements were combined into the second sentence of § 6(j) in the 1948 enactment to form the present statutory definition of "religious training and belief"; their derivation from the Berman opinion was not left in doubt.*fn3
In construing the conscientious objector provision today, we must take account of statements of the Supreme Court subsequent to our decision, United States v. Bendik, 220 F.2d 249 (2 Cir. 1955), sustaining the statute's constitutionality, and decisions to the same effect by other courts of appeals. Most pertinent is that in the Maryland notary public oath case, Torcaso v. Watkins, 367 U.S. 488, 495, 81 S. Ct. 1680, 1683-1684, 6 L. Ed. 2d 982 (1961):
"We repeat and again reaffirm that neither a State nor the Federal Government can constitutionally force a person 'to profess a belief or disbelief in any religion.' Neither can constitutionally pass laws or impose requirements which aid all religions as against non-believers, and neither can aid those religions based on a belief in the existence of God as against those religions founded on different beliefs."
Since it is hard to deny that making exemption from military service turn on religious training and belief as stated in § 6(j) aids religions, and, more particularly, religions based on a belief in the existence of God, at least as significantly as permission to become a notary public, cf. Speiser v. Randall, 357 U.S. 513, 78 S. Ct. 1332, 2 L. Ed. 2d 1460 (1958), the Torcaso statement requires consideration whether there is some other basis whereby a statute making religious training and belief a condition to exemption from military service can escape condemnation. The important distinction seems to us to be that, in contrast to Maryland's notary public oath, Congress enacted this statute, in mitigation of what we assume to be the constitutionally permissible course of denying exemptions to all objectors, for the very purpose of protecting "the free exercise" of religion by those whose religious beliefs were incompatible with military service which Congress had the right to require. See Mr. Justice Brennan concurring in Abington School District v. Schempp, 374 U.S. 203, 247-248, 295-298, 301-302, 83 S. Ct. 1560, 10 L. Ed. 2d 844 (1963). But, under present day thinking as to the First Amendment, a statute could scarcely be defended on this score if it protected "the free exercise" of only a few favored religions or preferred some religions over others without reasonable basis for doing so. See Watson v. Jones, 13 Wall. 679, 728-729, 80 U.S. 679, 728-729, 20 L. Ed. 666 (1872). The freedom which the Constitution protects is the freedom to exercise the religion of one's choice; a statute limited to certain religions would restrict the free exercise of the disfavored ones. The time-honored principle of construing a statute not only to escape unconstitutionality but to avoid "grave and doubtful constitutional questions," United States v. Delaware & Hudson Co., 213 U.S. 366, 407-408, 29 S.c/t. 527, 53 L. Ed. 836 (1909), thus dictates reading the definition of "religious training and belief" in § 6(j) as broadly as the words permit.
The statute clearly does not require belief in an anthropomorphic deity breathing, like the God of the Sistine ceiling, over the face of the waters. Long before 1948 men whose belief in a Supreme Being would not have been questioned had substituted the notion of "God out there" for "God up there."*fn4 The majority opinion in Berman recognized this, 156 F.2d at 380; it asked only that one asserting religious belief should not "assign all beyond [our logical equations] as a great vacancy" but should entertain a belief "going beyond the physical revelations of life." Even more clearly Chief Justice Hughes' statement in Macintosh, made in the course of an eloquent dissent insisting on "our regard from the beginning for freedom of conscience," 283 U.S. at 631, 51 S. Ct. at 577, 75 L. Ed. 1302, was not intended to define "religion" or "God" in any narrow sense. We are by no means certain that the court that rejected Berman's claim because his evidence showed no belief in "a supreme power" of any kind would have rejected Jakobson's. Moreover, the statutory definition need not be regarded as precisely bounded by the Berman opinion when the compulsion to read it broadly is so strong. A contemporary theologian of high distinction and wide influence, who has taught at great universities on both sides of the Atlantic, Professor Paul Tillich, has written of God in terms that would surely embrace Jakobson's beliefs. As the footnote shows,*fn5 Jakobson's definition of religion as "the sum and essence of one's basic attitude to the fundamental problems of human existence" and his insistence that man can know nothing of God and that Godness can be approached only through psychic involvement in reality parallel the views of this eminent theologian rather strikingly. We cannot believe that Congress, aware of the constitutional problem, meant to exclude views of this character from its definition of religion,*fn6 or to require lay draft boards and personnel of the Department of Justice to pass on nice theological distinctions between vertical and horizontal transcendence. See Mr. Justice Jackson, dissenting, in United States v. Ballard, 322 U.S. 78, 92-95, 64 S. Ct. 882, 889-890, 88 L. Ed. 1148 (1944). It follows that if the decision of the Appeal Board rested solely on the view that the beliefs professed by Jakobson did not meet the test of § 6(j), it was predicated on an erroneous view of the law and afforded no basis for ordering his induction.
Our inability to determine the grounds upon which the Appeal Board based Jakobson's classification complicates the disposition of his appeal. The usual rule is that when a case is submitted to fact finders on two legal theories, one right and the other wrong, their determination cannot stand. United New York and New Jersey Sandy Hook Pilots Ass'n v. Halecki, 358 U.S. 613, 619, 79 S. Ct. 517, 3 L. Ed. 2d 541 (1959). The applicability of this general principle in selective service cases is supported by a statement in Sicurella v. United States, 348 U.S. 385, 392, 75 S. Ct. 403, 406-407, 99 L. Ed. 436 (1955): "Here, where it is impossible to determine on exactly which grounds the Appeal Board decided, the integrity of the Selective Service System demands, at least, that the Government not recommend illegal grounds," although the pertinence of that statement to the instant case is weakened by the fact that in Sicurella the sole ground recommended by the Department was held illegal. However, the Supreme Court cited with approval United States ex rel. Levy v. Cain, 149 F.2d 338 (2 Cir. 1945), where this Court granted a writ of habeas corpus because a special advisory panel had made a general conclusory recommendation that may have rested on grounds beyond its power and there was no proof that the Board had ignored it. And in United States v. Erikson, 149 F.Supp. 576, 579 (S.D.N.Y.1957), Judge Kaufman acquitted a defendant where although "the Appeal Board could validly have rested its decision on the hearing examiner's impression that the defendant was insincere, there was no evidence that the Board based its decision on this ground rather than the invalid ground." See also Shepherd v. United States, 217 F.2d 942 (9 Cir. 1954), rehearing den., 220 F.2d 855 (1955); and Ypparila v. United States, 219 F.2d 465 (10 Cir. 1954). We do not read Sovich v. Esperdy, 319 F.2d 21 (2 Cir. 1963), cited by the Government, as deciding anything to the contrary since in that case the Regional Commissioner expressly concurred in the erroneously reasoned opinion of the Special Inquiry Officer.
Since Jakobson's classification may have rested on an erroneous ground, his conviction cannot stand. We see no principle that would prevent our reversing for a new trial in which, if the Government chose, it could endeavor to prove from the mouths of members of the Appeal Board that they considered Jakobson to have been insincere. See United States v. Balogh, 157 F.2d 939, 944 (2 Cir. 1946), judgment vacated on other grounds, 329 U.S. 692 (1947); United States ex rel. Reel v. Badt, supra, 141 F.2d 845 (2 Cir. 1944). But because we are dealing here with action taken by the Appeal Board five years ago, we think it more "just under the circumstances," 28 U.S.C. § 2106, to direct dismissal of the indictment, as was done in Batelaan v. United States, 217 F.2d 946, 947 n. 1 (9 Cir. 1954); Shepherd v. United States, supra, 217 F.2d 942; Ypparila v. United States, supra, 219 F.2d 465; and United States v. Erikson, supra, 149 F.Supp. 576, without prejudice to such new proceedings for Jakobson's induction, if any, as the Selective Service System may think it wise to undertake.

Brutus' life is a fairy tale in the process of being written. He clearly had a rough start. We wish he could talk because we are curious to know the events that led to this wonderful dog ending up in a county shelter with scars and a positive heart worm diagnosis. Despite all of this, Brutus has been a perfect gentleman in his foster home. He is quick to adapt to new situations. For example, when I picked him up from the shelter, he was very nervous and whimpered during the car ride home. But he learned to enjoy them after just a few rides. Now he's the first to hop in the car when we go somewhere! Occasionally something will happen (like a high five during a football game) that will cause him to cower and we get a glimpse into what his previous life must have been like. But his scars - emotional and physical - are healing and he is ready for happily-ever-after! Are you the one that can provide it for him?
Brutus Maximus is believed to be 3 years old and currently weighs 25 pounds. His foster mom reports that he likes to dart out of the door when it is opened so she is working on training him to sit when the door is opened. His adopter will need to continue to work with him on this issue.
If you are interested in adopting, please visit our website to learn about our adoption process and to fill out an application. www.btrfl.org
Because we have Boston Terriers of all ages, we have a sliding scale for adoption fees generally ranging from $200 to $600 based on the age and health of the dog. Our fees cover vetting costs, shelter fees, fuel for transport, copying and printing of contracts and paperwork, our website presence, food, boarding, behavioral training and additional medical care. While the dog you adopt may not require all of these things, many other dogs in our system do. By adopting from Boston Terrier Rescue of Florida, you are not saving just one life, you are helping to save others as well.

The North Conway area has been a favorite of ours since we were kids, and we decided during our honeymoon that we needed to buy a vacation home to enjoy with our family and friends, as well as to rent to others looking to do the same. Why? It kind of hit us all at once during the days before our wedding. We rented a large home in York, ME and had a couple great nights drinking wine, listening to music, eating great food and catching up with friends that we don't get to see as often as we used to. It was fantastic. It was like a dinner party that lasted for days, and we decided that we needed more weekends like that. Fast forward a few months, and we made our dream a reality. We now have a great place to spend time with our friends and family, and we want to share that place with you!
Rick Caldwell purchased this chalet in 2014
Amazing house in an incredible location! Rick was very prompt to reply to our questions during our stay, and the house was not only beautiful, but furnished with everything we needed for a cozy retreat weekend in the mountains.We will definitely stay there again!
We really enjoyed our stay here beautiful spacious home, kids loved it really big yard to play games. Also plenty of board games and movies to keep you entertained at night. Great location short distance to travel to the river and center of Conway. Will definitely visit again, thanks Rick for letting us stay in your beautiful home.
I had an awesome weekend at this lovely house! I'm looking forward to go back again for the winter time. This place has it all! It's a beautiful place to spend your vacations.
Absolutely beautiful home. Three floors of updated rooms. Beautifully appointed bathrooms and bathrooms. Kitchen is great with every imaginable appliance, utensil, and cookware - grill is great. Living room has modern television and entertainment with 500 plus channels. Both bathrooms are very clean and modern. Both decks are great places to enjoy the quietness of the area. Fire pit is awesome. Rich - the owner - is exceptional - super gracious host and helpful through the whole rental. Look no further.
We are wrapping up a weeks stay at this property in Conway. The location was central for accessing local attractions like the Kangamangus Highway, Catherdral Ledge, and the center of North Conway. Each were within 15-20 minute drive. Our group included 6 adults. The living room was very comfortable as we hung out playing games and watching the Olympics. We had breakfast and dinner most days at the house. The kitchen has all the basics with regard to cooking utensils.and equipment, but could use a few more dinner plates, glasses, etc. to avoid running the dishwasher between meals. Overall, a very nice experience. We would stay again and recommended to others.
What a great experience from start to finish. Rick was extremely responsive, the house was pristine and the location was perfect!
The chalet is located in the beautiful White Mountain region of New Hampshire. We're close to all the area attractions that have made Conway a popular vacation spot. In the summer, you'll have access to the private beaches in Eidelweiss, which are only a minute or two away, and in the winter you're only about 15 minutes away from some of the best skiing the area has to offer. Outlet shopping, plenty of dining and all the charm of North Conway Village are just minutes away as well.

World War II arguably presented one of the most trying times for NC State College in the 1940s. Enrollments dropped, ROTC was reduced and revenues at the university sank due to more men being drafted and joining the service, according to Alice E. Reagan's North Carolina State University: A Narrative History.
So the federal government acted to help schools like State offer programs that allowed their young men to complete their education while gaining valuable military training. Those programs were funded with federal money and run by the universities, according to Reagan's book.
"When it became evident that the government planned to create these military programs, the [Frank Porter] Graham and [John] Harrelson administration eagerly prepared State College to participate," Reagan writes. "Harrelson appointed a War Training Board, headed by Professor Hilbert A. Fisher of mathematics, who served as armed services coordinator."
And on this day in 1943, the first group of men called "soldier-students" arrived on campus to take part in one of those programs at NC State College. Eight-hundred men of the 59th Training Detachment of the Army Air Force came to take part in an "intensive five-month pre-flight training program," writes Reagan. They took math, physics, chemistry, history, English and geography courses in addition to their flight training.
"Over 4,000 Air Corps Cadets received their pre-flight training in this program at State College," Reagan writes. It was housed at NC State until May 1944, when its administration was transferred back to the U.S. Army Air Force.

Pre paid credit cards v Credit Cards. Are prepaid cards becoming the new trend instead of carrying cash?
Prepaid v Credit Cards – Difference with Prepaid Card or a Traditional Credit Card? Are High Street banks moving towards fee based Credit Cards? with credit card charges increasing on a steady basis and with issuers now tighting the belt on who can get one what is the alternative to the strangle hold credit cards issuers have put on the market?
Credit Cards charges are getting more and more people into bad debt, since the introduction on chip and pin on the credit card, it is estimated that 11% more people now withdraw cash on their credit cards.
Where since 2005, cash withdrawal fees have soared unnoticed from an average 20.83% APR to 27.06% APR with 69 of around 300 credit cards on the market racking up their cash withdrawal fees often tucked away in lengthy small printed terms and conditions.
The latest statistic show that in total it is estimated that there has been 125 rate and fee increases inside a two-month period and has hit the consumers pocket quite hard and is extortionate lending.
What with Christmas around the corner and incomes already stretched to the maximum what with mortgage increases people may perhaps turn to their credit card as additional cash to cover the festive period only be to stung by higher rates and fees and becoming further and further in bad debt. Some lenders have exposed stricter lending criteria to reduce the amount of available credit on offer to applicants, which is a step in the right direction but shouldn't all charges be capped and regulated?
Compare Prepaid – SEARCH FOR THE RIGHT CARD FOR YOU
With more and more people getting into bad debt and looking for an alternative due to poor credit ratings prepaid cards have become the solution for many people. Prepaid cards show all charges are clearly defined and are clearly stated throughout individual prepaid card websites. Prepaid cards offer a logical, flexible alternative to credit cards.
Although you do not have an actual credit facility, you can still use all the functions normally associated with a traditional credit card and get discounts when using your prepaid card.
Advantages of prepaid credit cards:
Disadvantages of prepaid credit cards:
A prepaid credit card can be an excellent solution if you have had past credit problems or have difficulty getting a regular card for some reason. But it's vital that you practice good financial habits along with owning the card.
Make your credit card payment on time and in full. Manage your money. Get prepay cards that is based on your lifestyle where you will eventually offset some of the mistakes you made in your financial past.

On Tuesday afternoon I had the pleasure to discuss a number of investor questions and concerns with the CEO of Galena BioPharma (NASDAQ:GALE) Mark Ahn. The interview consisted of questions derived from Seeking Alpha readers and those created by myself. The goal of this interview was to provide facts over a number of recent opinions regarding the studies, outlook, and the acquisition of the company's lead candidate NeuVax, among other areas of concern.
The transcript of the interview has been edited for length, grammar, clarity, readability and syntax. Initial greeting and closings are not included in the transcript. Some information was provided through email due to an inability to transcribe effectively.
Brian Nichols
Could you please give me a little insight into how NeuVax works with regard to HER2 over-expressed breast cancer cells?
Mark Ahn
HER2/neu is a member of the epidermal growth factor receptor family of transmembrane tyrosine kinases. The HER2/neu gene is amplified and the encoded protein is overexpressed in a variety of malignancies, including up to 30% of breast and ovarian cancers. This overexpression can result in a 100-200-fold increase in concentration of the HER2/neu protein in tumor versus normal tissue. Recognizing this differential expression, Fisk and colleagues proposed that HER2/neu may serve as a TAA since processing of overexpressed HER2/neu protein would theoretically result in an increased peptide supply which could occupy a significant number of MHC molecules in competition with other peptides.
This in turn could activate or reactivate an immune response against a HER2/neu expressing tumor. I an early study investigating this hypothesis, Fisk et al. identiWed common immunogenic epitopes of HER2 that were recognized by CD3+CD4¡CD8+ ovarian-specific CTL lines that were isolated from tumor-associated lymphocytes from HLA-A2+ ovarian cancer patients. All peptides were selected from the HER2/neu sequence based on HLA-A2 anchor motifs.
HLA-A2-presented peptides were chosen because the HLA-A2 allele is expressed in 40-50% of the general population and had been demonstrated to play an important role in tumor antigen presentation from a variety of tumors. The E75 epitope, derived from the protein's extracellular domain, was dominantly recognized by all CTL lines tested. Finding a speciWc peptide derived from the HER2/neu sequence that was recognized by tumor-specific CTLs confirmed this oncogene as a TAA.
Subsequent to the identification of E75, this peptide was studied by other investigators both in vitro and in an in vivo animal model. This additional work confirmed that E75 was capable of inducing a peptide-specific, CTL-mediated immune response (Mittendorf, et al 2008).
Brian Nichols
Why is the focus of the recently initiated PRESENT trial on breast cancer cells with low to moderate levels of expression of HER2 and not the highly expressed?
Mark Ahn
NeuVax has demonstrated preclinical and clinical benefit in all levels of HER2 expression, IHC 1+, 2+, and 3+ both alone and in combination with Herceptin.
Herceptin was approved in adjuvant breast cancer in IHC 3+ patients. Galena is focusing on 1+ and 2+ patients which is a completely unmet medical need, and many studies have shown that HER2 1+ and 2+ patients also have a poor prognosis in terms of recurrence and mortality.
The target patient population is has been carefully targeted in multiple ways to detect the NeuVax clinical signal and demonstrate patient benefit including HLA A2/A3, node positive patients who have a higher recurrence rate, menopausal status, type of surgery, hormonal status.
Brian Nichols
What is wrong with the logic in the following statement "If NeuVax trains T cells to recognize and destroy HER2-expressing breast cancer cells, the vaccine should work best in tumors where HER2 expression is highest."?
Mark Ahn
In a study by Gilcrease entitled, "Even Low-level HER2 Expression May be Associated With Worse Outcome in Node-positive Breast Cancer" noted that:
Although standardized assays are used to help select patients for anti-HER2 therapy, there are no standardized criteria for assessing HER2 as a prognostic marker… These findings support the hypothesis that low-level HER2 expression may have significant clinical implications. Although the assessment of HER2 expression is most important for predicting response to anti-HER2 therapy, detection of low level HER2 expression might also be useful in helping to select a more aggressive treatment regimen for patients ineligible for anti-HER2 [Herceptin] therapy.
Brian Nichols
If you would please comment or briefly describe the Phase II study.
Mark Ahn
The NeuVax Phase 2 trials enrolled 187 patients, including node positive and node negative patients. All patients received standard of care (SoC) therapy and were confirmed to be disease-free prior to enrollment. Following enrollment, eligible patients were administered the NeuVax vaccine once a month for six months, followed by booster shots one every 6 months thereafter. The efficacy endpoint for the trial was disease free survival (NYSE:DFS), the same endpoint in the FDA approved SPA (Special Protocol Assessment) for the Phase 3 PRESENT study.
There is a statistically significant increase in disease free survival at 36 months in the NeuVax treated group vs the control group for the planned Phase 3 patient population (p=0.035). The vaccine treated group showed no recurrences of cancer (0% recurrence rate), while the control group demonstrated a 22% recurrence rate which is consistent with historical norms. The planned Phase 3 patient population as defined in the FDA approved Special Protocol Assessment (NYSE:SPA) includes breast cancer patients who are node positive, have low to intermediate HER2 expression (HER2 1+ and 2+ by IHC), are HLA A2+ & A3+ and who are disease free following standard of care therapy.
Brian Nichols:
Could you give us a little insight into your relationship with Roche (OTCQX:RHHBY) as pertaining to the PRESENT trial? Have you considered other ventures together?
Mark Ahn:
Galena is exploring NeuVax in combination with Herceptin (trastuzumab; Genentech/Roche) in a 300 patient, randomized Phase 2 study starting in 2012. This trial is being co-sponsored by Genentech/Roche and administered by The Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine, Inc. A previously reported pilot Phase 2 trial investigated early stage breast cancer patients who had completed their standard of care primary treatment, and were not eligible for Herceptin treatment due to having less than 3+ HER2 expression. A total of 62 patients enrolled, and all received trastuzumab. Of the 32 who received trastuzumab alone, 12.5% (4/32) recurred, comparable with reported rates of similarly staged and treated patients.
Brian Nichols:
When do you expect interim data from the PRESENT trial to be released?
Mark Ahn:
The interim analysis, conducted by an independent data safety monitoring board of distinguished oncologists, will review the data at 70 events or recurrences. We estimate that the interim will occur in around 18 months, but the actually data will be event driven. The review will include a futility and safety analysis, and provide a preliminary indication of progress of the trial.
Brian Nichols:
Why was a small subset of patients given the booster dose of NeuVax and not the others?
Mark Ahn:
The first step in any clinical program is to establish safety in Phase 1. The second step was to optimize the dose and schedule, which was determined to be 6 monthly doses which optimized the number of HER-directed cytotoxic t-cells to seek out and destroy tumor cells. The third step was to determine if further boosters would enhance the number of HER-directed cytotoxic t-cells. Each of these steps outlined demonstrated additional clinical benefit to patients and, as such, was included into the Phase 3.
Brian Nichols:
What do you intend to present at ASCO?
Mark Ahn:
Galena will present Ph 2 data at 48 months, as well as the booster data, to further evaluate the long-term durability of NeuVax.
Brian Nichols:
Do you care to comment on Adam Feuerstein's bold prediction of a NeuVax failure in the end?
Mark Ahn:
Everyone is entitled to their opinion and agenda, but just as it's irresponsible to yell "fire" in a crowded theater it's the height irresponsibility to be cavalier about the facts in a clinical trial, particularly for cancer survivors fighting to stay free of disease recurrence.
NeuVax (E75) was discovered at The MD Anderson Cancer Center, one of the largest and most respected oncology centers. Moreover, NeuVax has been awarded millions of dollars in competitive research grants. Galena has completed the Phase 2 presented at ASCO, finalized commercial manufacturing, obtained an amended and US FDA approved SPA reflecting the current standards of care, and initiated a Ph 3 trial. In addition, the company has agreed to a clinical collaboration for a Ph 2 in combination with Herceptin.
While we can never guarantee the outcome of a double-blinded, randomized multicenter trial, many outstanding researchers, physicians, regulators and company employees are working tirelessly to appropriately evaluate the safety and efficacy of NeuVax.

Mr PuttickI have one of these on my ATB so bought this one for the turbo but it is horrible, Where I get very sweaty around the top of my quads, it rubs and makes it very sore, Whilst my 'bits' are very comfortable my bum aches after an hour. So.... great for the mountain bike but iffy for the turbo.
Armando M.After having six different saddles of the best brands I finally found the one really relieving pain! Still can't believe it!!
Mr RowanThis is a good replacement of the much loved Typhoon saddle which is no longer available. It is a narrower saddle but, despite the truncated nose, is long enough to adjust your riding position ocassionally. Would definitely recommend if you suffer with blood-flow issues on long rides!
Mr HolmesI have ridden many saddles and always suffered from bum pain etc but this saddle has cured the problem. To a degree it has replaced it with sore sit bones and initial rides may leave you questioning its validity, but after 50 or so miles you start to see that bum pain is history and sit bone pain not such a big issue. I wouldn't ride anything else now. (I'm 54, 5ft 8in and 16 stone)

APPEAL from the Circuit Court of Sangamon County; the Hon.
WILLIAM H. CHAMBERLAIN, Judge, presiding.
Employer, Allis-Chalmers Manufacturing Company, appeals from the judgment of the circuit court of Sangamon County affirming the decision of the Industrial Commission awarding the petitioner - employee, Junior "Doc" Johnson, compensation for temporary total disability, permanent partial disability, and necessary medical expenses. The application for adjustment of claim alleges petitioner suffered injuries as the result of an accident while working on July 7, 1964.
At the hearing before the arbitrator, petitioner testified that he was pushing a boom into a fixture when the crane he was using backlashed and twisted his right arm, shoulder and neck, causing pain in those areas of his body. He continued to work until the end of his shift. He told one of his foremen that he "had a soreness down through my shoulder and my arm and my neck."
On July 10 petitioner consulted Dr. Scott, who examined him and prescribed medication. Dr. Scott had treated him for colds on other occasions and he had a cough and cold at that time. After a week, when his condition failed to improve, claimant returned to Dr. Scott. He was sent to another office for X rays and was referred to Dr. Hayner, whom he saw on July 24. Dr. Hayner sent him to St. John's Hospital for a myelogram, followed by surgery on his neck. He was hospitalized from July 27 to August 3, 1964. After a follow-up examination by Dr. Hayner on September 28, petitioner returned to work.
Petitioner testified that at the time of the hearing he was still suffering pain and stiffness in his right arm and back, and loss of strength in his arm. He also stated that he had had no complaints in regard to his neck, right shoulder or right arm before July 7, 1964.
The hospital bill and the bills of Dr. Scott and Dr. Hayner were admitted into evidence. Noted on Dr. Scott's bill is a diagnosis of myositis, right shoulder girdle, and a notation that Dr. Hayner's diagnosis was "herniated intervertebral disc C6-7, right." Dr. Hayner's bill noted a diagnosis of prolapsed disc, cervical spine. Petitioner had made an application for payment of Dr. Hayner's bill under his non-industrial group insurance coverage.
Dr. Harold Diller, who had examined petitioner on February 6, 1965, testified that at that time petitioner had a limitation of motion of his right arm and, on lateral bending, a slight atrophy of his right biceps, and a surgical scar on his neck. X rays showed a partial laminectomy had been performed at C6-7 on the right side. He attributed petitioner's complaints of pain and weakness in the right arm to the pathology he found and testified the condition was permanent. In response to a hypothetical question, Dr. Diller stated that in his opinion there was a causal connection between the injury of July 7, 1964, and the condition he found on February 6, 1965.
On cross-examination the doctor described myositis as inflammation of the muscles that could result from colds, infections, strains or bruises. He could not determine from his X rays when the condition that required surgery had developed.
The arbitrator awarded petitioner temporary total disability, permanent partial disability and medical expenses. On review before the Industrial Commission, the employer adduced testimony that although petitioner did complain of a sore back he had made no complaint of injury while working. The employer's records showed he was absent from work between the dates of July 20 and August 28, 1964.
In its decision setting aside the arbitrator's award the Industrial Commission found that petitioner sustained accidental injuries on July 7, 1964, arising out of and in the course of his employment, but that he had failed to prove a causal relationship between the accident and the condition of ill-being of which he complained and denied him compensation. On review the circuit court found that the findings of the Industrial Commission were "inconsistent and cannot be reconciled" and remanded the case to the Commission "with the right to hear further evidence and consider the record proceedings and to make findings of fact consistent with the remanding order." On remand, without hearing additional testimony, the Commission entered as its decision the original award of the arbitrator, and the circuit court, on review, affirmed the decision.
The judgment of the circuit court reversing the Industrial Commission's denial of compensation and remanding the cause for further proceedings was interlocutory and not appealable. The judgment of the circuit court upon review of the decision of the Industrial Commission entered following the remand is appealable, and this court, with the entire record before it, may review the correctness of the circuit court's order of reversal and remandment. Downey v. Industrial Com., 44 Ill.2d 28.
The employer contends that the circuit court erred in remanding the cause to the Industrial Commission. It argues that the question of whether there was a causal connection between the accident and the condition of which petitioner complained was one of fact for the Commission and the Commission's finding was not contrary to the manifest weight of the evidence.
We have examined the cases upon which the employer relies and find them clearly distinguishable. In Downey v. Industrial Com., 44 Ill.2d 28, there was testimony of another occurrence out of which the disability might have arisen. Orr v. Industrial Com., 47 Ill.2d 242, involved a death as the result of heart disease and there was evidence from which the Commission could find a cause other than the decedent's employment. In Bernard v. Industrial Com., 25 Ill.2d 240, there was evidence of a previous history of back trouble and a spinal fusion operation, and the testimony for the petitioner fell short of establishing the causal connection.
In this case the evidence adduced by the employer is relevant only to the issue of whether there was an accidental injury, and the only evidence with respect to petitioner's condition of ill-being, or its causal relationship to the injury, is that introduced by petitioner. Upon the record before us we hold that the circuit court did not err in holding that the findings were inconsistent and in remanding the cause to the Commission. We hold further that the findings upon which the award is based are not against the manifest weight of the evidence.
Finally the employer contends that the testimony of Dr. Diller is based partly upon history given him by the petitioner, and is therefore incompetent and without probative value. The record does not support this contention and we note further that the only objection to the doctor's testimony at the hearing was on an entirely different ground. We find no error, and the judgment of the circuit court of Sangamon County is affirmed.
Judgment affirmed.

MC women drop 85-79 decision to Berg
As well as the Marietta College women's basketball team played after the break, the outcome might have been different had there been a couple of more minutes left on the clock.
The Stacia Shrider-coached Lady Pioneers basically ran out of time in their come-from-behind effort and dropped an 85-79 decision to Morgan Shriver-led Heidelberg University in an Ohio Athletic Conference and Winter Weekend game at Ban Johnson Arena Saturday.
"We definitely came back in the second half," said MC junior forward and former Frontier standout Heather Booth. "We outworked them and came together as a team.
"Turns out, though, it was too little, too late."
Marietta outpointed Heidelberg 53-42 in the second half, but it was not enough to recover from a 43-26 halftime deficit. HU, which also beat MC 78-69 in Tiffin on Dec. 14, 2013, halted a seven-game slide.
"We've just got to put two halves together," Booth continued. "We'll definitely learn from this game."
Candice Alexander and Booth scored 23 and 18 points, respectively, to pace the Lady Pioneers, who fell 10-11 overall and 4-10 in the OAC. They are grabbed a team-high nine rebounds apiece.
Non-starter Jessica Brogan added 15 points, and 1,000-point career scorer Tori Dixon had 12.
The Berg ( 11-10, 4-10) was led by Kathleen Phillips, who tallied a team-high 21 points. Jackie Albrecht chipped in with 11, and Paige Ricketts and Molly Schriber each had 10. Carli Patrick netted eight points and collected a game-high 12 caroms. Allie Hawkins also had eight markers.
Sparked by 10 points apiece from Phillips and Ricketts, Heidelberg slowly but surely stretched its advantage to double digits in the opening 20 minutes, and led by 17 going into the locker room.
Marietta, meanwhile was struggling at both ends of the floor.
"We were pretty disappointed and mad at ourselves at halftime," Booth said.
During the opening minute of the second half, Phillips scored and converted a bonus freebie to give HU its biggest lead of the contest, 46-26. After that, though, it was all Marietta as the home team battled back, and nearly caught the visitors from Tiffin.
With a little over two minutes left, and after Alexander, Booth and Brogan each had a bucket, Marietta was able to reduce the deficit to single digits, and trailed by only four, 73-69.
Heidelberg had an answer, though, and was able to give itself a seven-point cushion, 79-72. But then, Brogan drained a long three to cut it to four again with 41 seconds remaining.
Down the stretch, HU needed to make its free-throws and made enough of them to keep the Lady Pioneers at bay. During the game, The Berg converted 23 of 26 foul shots (88.5 percent).
"We turned the game around in the second half," Booth said. "We've just got to come ready to play in the beginning."

Foundation - Home
Since 1962 GHC Foundation has been here to "increase opportunities for deserving students to realize their educational goals by offering scholarship assistance and strong support of the academic environment of the college."
We accomplish this through building authentic relationships with our alumni, friends of Grays Harbor College, community/civic leaders and and the business community.
We recently received a major gift from Mr. Ken Millen a 1950 graduate of GHC. Ken was a shoe salesman at Adamore's shoe store on Wishkah Street. According to GHC Foundation President Tim Martin "Countless students will be able to attend classes, earn their degrees and start their futures because of the Millen's generosity."
Through dedication and hard work, our foundation has created a stable, long-lasting organization that offers our students a chance to be on campus and thrive in their learning. We work closely with many departments on campus to connect students to resources that help them fulfill their passions and interests.
Our scholarship program awarded 307 scholarships for the 2016-17 school year. Totaling $606,900. More than 70 of those were full tuition scholarships.
The World Class Scholar Program invites junior high aged students in Grays Harbor and Pacific Counties to make a plan for college. When they complete a few basic requirements and enroll in college level classes they have a $2,000 scholarship waiting for them.
In other giving to the College more than $130,000 was appropriated for Childcare Grants, Athletic Scholarships, Graduation Breakfast, Year end awards, Modumath Software and much needed instructional equipment!
This year we awarded over $10,000 in Faculty Excellence grants.
We invite you to join us in continuing the legacy of quality education and providing an excellent education that has a lasting impact to everyone in our communities.
Thank you to our many supporters some of whom live within the College's service district of Grays Harbor and Pacific counties; others live far away but proudly keep their GHC ties.
Go Chokers!!Jan Jorgenson, Executive Director

Trump's Potential Picks for Secretary of State Roil Supporters
After campaigning hard against globalism and the establishment, President-elect Donald Trump's potential picks for U.S. Secretary of State mentioned publicly so far — many of them well-known establishment globalists — have sparked confusion and even outrage among many of his closest and fiercest supporters. But the decision has not yet been made.
Among the names highlighted so far have been failed GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney, disgraced former CIA boss Gen. David Petraeus (ret.), former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, ex-United Nations Ambassador John Bolton, and Congressman Dana Rohrbacher (R-Calif.). Newt Gingrich is apparently no longer in the running.
Trump Team Touts "National Standards" After Opposing Common Core
While some of Donald Trump's appointments so far have been celebrated by his supporters, the president-elect's nominee for U.S. education secretary, Betsy DeVos, has raised serious concerns, even among Trump's most loyal backers. From concerns about her involvement with pro-Common Core organizations, to growing doubts about whether President-elect Trump's administration intends to follow through on pursuing candidate Trump's call for shutting down the unconstitutional U.S. Department of Education, the controversy has only grown in recent days. Trump's team even claimed in a statement to be pursuing "higher national standards." DeVos has tried to ease concerns by speaking out against Common Core, and some conservative education leaders have called for giving her a chance. Others have vowed to fight her nomination to the end.
New UN Chief to Europe: Ignore Voters, Open the Borders
Incoming United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres (shown) last week urged European Union politicians and bureaucrats to ignore voters and open up their borders, claiming the growing Islamic tsunami of African and Middle Eastern immigration into the West was "inevitable" anyway. Critics were outraged. Speaking like a committed globalist, the Socialist UN boss also suggested that "multi-ethnic," "multi-religious," and "multi-cultural" societies would be the only ones to succeed.
On a visit to Communist China this week, though, not a word was said by the new UN chief about the brutal regime's penchant for kidnapping savagely persecuted North Koreans and sending them back to be tortured and then murdered by the most barbarous totalitarian dictatorship on the planet. Instead, Guterres praised the communist tyrants in Beijing, currently engaged in what experts call the "cultural genocide" of Tibet, and encouraged the regime to continue pursuing its leadership role in what the UN refers to as "global governance."
Media Blasted for "Fake News" on Trump's Climate Stance
The establishment media is again being accused of pumping out "fake news," this time for radically distorting the meaning and context of recent "climate change" comments made by President-elect Donald Trump. In an interview with the New York Times, Trump made clear that he was still skeptical of the increasingly discredited man-made global-warming theory, as well as the United Nations schemes supposedly aimed at stopping the alleged warming. The establishment press, though, dishonestly reported the comments as if the president-elect had betrayed his supporters and come out of the closet as a full-blown global-warming theorist in favor of the very UN "climate" regime he vowed to "cancel" on the campaign trail. In reality, despite expressing more nuance, he did no such thing.
With Obama Out, Communist China Takes Lead on UN "Climate" Scam
With the Obama era coming to a close and climate skeptic Donald Trump coming to power, the murderous dictatorship in mainland China is reportedly taking on Obama's role as chief promoter of the UN climate agenda. The irony, of course, is that Trump has previously argued that the man-made global-warming theory was a "hoax" created by the Communist Chinese regime to cripple American manufacturing. He has also vowed to "cancel" the United Nations "climate change" regime.
Without question, undermining the U.S. economy and boosting China's is one goal among many shared by Beijing, the UN, many UN member regimes, and the establishment-backed "climate" machine. But there is even more to the dangerous agenda, and Americans are not out of danger from the UN-Beijing-Obama scheming just yet.
Amid Anti-globalist Outcry, New Push to Grant UN Tax Powers
Even as voters worldwide defy the establishment and firmly reject globalism in democratic elections, seemingly tone-deaf globalists are demanding the surrender of vast new powers over taxation and national policy to the United Nations. If the UN is allowed to usurp the draconian powers demanded, freedom, privacy, and prosperity would become history.
Globalist War on Cash Accelerates
As part of the globalist establishment's ongoing push to create a totalitarian "cashless society" where every transaction can be tracked and controlled, Indian authorities last week suddenly demonetized the two largest denomination bills in circulation. In Sweden, where government already tracks and monitors almost everything, central bankers are plotting the creation of a "digital currency" that could be completely controlled — along with those who use it — by authorities. And in Australia, establishment-minded mega-banks are plotting with politicians to force everyone into a United Nations-backed "cashless society" where banks and government have total control over the population. In each case, different excuses have been used. But taken together, it is obvious that something major is going on, worldwide. Liberty and privacy are literally at stake.
UN Kangaroo Court Implodes Amid Threat to Prosecute U.S. Troops
Even as it threatens to illegally prosecute American soldiers, the dictator-dominated United Nations judicial body known as the "International Criminal Court" is imploding spectacularly on the world stage. With the withdrawal of the Russian government this week and South African authorities last month — not to mention the fact that the U.S. government never joined in the first place — the ICC appears to be on its deathbed. Other African and Asian governments are also preparing to exit the outfit. The establishment and various globalists are outraged, of course. But for humanity and the cause of true justice, the dictatorship-infested ICC's collapse is great news, as anyone familiar with the UN kangaroo court and its operation can attest.
Chinese Tyrant Seeks Global Control After Obama Gave Up Internet
With Obama having just relinquished U.S. control over key Internet architecture last month, it did not take long for the pro-censorship communist dictatorship in China to openly demand "global governance" of the World Wide Web. The mass-murdering Chinese regime, along with its totalitarian allies worldwide, has actually been pushing for global control of the Internet and a crackdown on online freedom for many years. But now, with Communist Chinese agents installed at the head of key United Nations agencies, and globalists in the West increasingly hostile to free speech, Beijing seems to think the time is right to strike.
Obama: Submit to Globalism or Face War, Death, Destruction
With globalists facing a series of devastating defeats and mounting global outrage over their agenda, Obama complained that President-elect Donald Trump "tapped into" what he called a "troubling" strain of public opinion that threatens to unleash war, genocide, and death. Obama's divisive comments acknowledging but then dismissing Americans' rejection of the globalist assault on self-government and nationhood were made in Athens, Greece, during his final official trip abroad. The misleading remarks confirm that, despite escalating public fury worldwide as expressed in Brexit and Trump's election, the globalist establishment is not ready to surrender its radical internationalist agenda just yet.
