Finns det hockeyintresserade svenskar här på tumblr?

Jag är nyfiken på en sak isåfall

PGA endast 12 svarsalternativ så hamnar 3 lag i samma svar. Gör en separat poll för att sära dom i första reblog.

The Skellefteå Regiment was completely wiped two times during Sweden's wars; both at Poltava in 1709 and again in Estonia in 1710. Losing so many young men two years in a row was hard for a area that was already low population

När Norrlandsfönstret öppnades

När Norrlandsfönstret öppnades. Längre tillbaka i tiden var Norrlandsfotbollen styvmoderligt behandlad, något man såg över axeln på likt den fattiga kusinen från landet, Ända fram till säsongen 1953/54 hade inte lag norr om Gästrikland tillträde till herrfotbollens två högsta divisioner. Argumentet från högre ort var att med lag från Norrland i societeten skulle övriga föreningar tvingas till…

swedish-specific resources for palestinian local activism. please do share. 

Här kan man som svensk organisera sig för palestina. ibland kan resurser som sprids vara fokuserade på andra länder såsom USA, men här finns info på hur du som svensk kan organisera dig lokalt. 

Snälla feel free att lägga till eller r��tta vadsomhelst, 1000% amatör, men vill samla ihop info till folk som kanske inte stött på det innan på denna hemsida.

https://www.stoppaisrael.nu/ - organiserar sig specifikt i malmö gentemot ESC. har datum för planerade demonstrationer.

https://www.palestinagrupperna.se/ en huvudsaklig samlingsresurs för grupper i sverige att organisera sig med som är aktiv sen 70-talet. Här finns fakta, poddar, konsumentbojkotter, föreläsningar, insamlingar, osv. Palestinagruppen är mot apartheid fundamentalt utöver elduppehåll. De organiserar även Tuesdays for Palestine, för universitet och högskolor.

angående konsumentbojkotter i Malmö och Göteborg specifikt om ni köper second hand så stöttar björkåfrihet gaza, och säljer specifika palestinaimportprodukter såsom olivolja och kikärter.

Israel i Eurovision song contest

SVT pekar mot EBUs beslut och att en stor del av osannolikheten av Israels uteslutning är att en huvudsponsor för ESC är ett Israeliskt företag.

i malmö har det i nuläget(02/22) bestämts att frågan om Israel i Malmös eurovision skall tas upp i kommande lokala kommunmöten. Man kan som medborgare ta del av dessa möten. I nuläget är det endast vänsterpartiet av regeringspartierna som driver frågan, men man kan ta kontakt med kommunrepresentant för att själv framföra frågan och ämnet. Man kan även fysiskt vara med under möte

Lista och Kontakt med Malmös kommunfullmäktige

mejladress tll styrelsen som helhet: kommunstyrelsen@malmo.se

mötesdatum: 6e mars, 10e april i statshuset 13:00

som tidigare nämnt organiseras protester i malmö lokalt under eurovisiondatumen bl.a på https://www.stoppaisrael.nu/ men det finns inom andra länkar i palestinagruppen också.

BSD i Sverige

Från palestinagruppen: "BDS National Committee rekommenderar riktad bojkott, fokus på ett mindre antal företag och produkter som bedöms vara strategiskt viktiga."

Samtidigt:

"Vill du undvika att köpa israeliska varor när du handlar så kontrollera varans streckkodsnummer, det s.k. EAN-numret. Israels landsprefix är 729. "

här finns övergripande data på israels exportvaror till sverige

enligt https://trendeconomy.com är Israels främsta Frukt-o-grönt export som följer(som man kanske vill vara extra försiktig med, och rentav nämna till arbetare på din lokala matbutik- för deras mål är ju att sälja, inte bli bojkottade.) : Dadlar, fikon, ananas, avokado, guava, mango, citrus, nötter.

Sveriges regerings ställningstagande

Svenskt ställningstagande i “konflikten” är som följer:

Israel har en självklar rätt att försvara sig mot terrorism och urskillningslös raketbeskjutning.

Civila måste skyddas. 

Humanitärt tillträde är fundamentalt. (Jag vill belysa att regeringen här menar på att “ett stort ansvar för den humanitära katastrofen i Gaza vilar på Hamas som styrt Gaza sedan 2007” och även följande: “Sverige är en stor kärnstödsgivare till flera av de humanitära aktörerna på plats." Trots vad som står inom den fetade texten har sverige beslutat att stoppa bistånd till UNWRA. https://www.amnesty.se/aktuellt/sveriges-beslut-far-katastrofala-konsekvenser-miljontals-manniskors-liv/ )

Regional eskalering måste undvikas

En hållbar fred bygger på en tvåstatslösning.

Med grund av dessa uttalanden som bl.a direkt beskyller Palestiner för de över 30.000 dödade av den Israeliska militären är det inte överranskande att medier i sverige genast är vinklade, till ingens överraskning. Den senaste artikeln jag råkade ha öppen för att göra den här posten har språket

“Sydafrikas regering har anklagat Israel för folkmordsliknande agerande mot Gazas befolkning”

 “kriget i Gaza, som inleddes efter Hamas blodiga attack i Israel den 7 oktober. EBU har sagt att Israels public servicebolag inte brutit mot några regler och kommer att få tävla.”

Inga ord om att ICJ dömde Israel för detta “folkmordsliknande” beteende, eller vad som skiljer folkmord från “folkmordslikt”, medans attacken gentemot Israel är rentutav "blodig". På denna nivå överlag ligger journalistiken i Sverige. 

Det är viktigt att vi som medborgare belyser att Sveriges regering inte bara är åskådare utan är medbrottslingar i Israels fortsatta utrotningsförsök mot det palestinska folket. Vi bör vara väl medvetna om propagandan som inte bara kommer utifrån, utan inom sverige, och bekämpa denna.

snälla kom med egna tips, resurser, anmärkningar, kritik, whatever! ville bara ha en samlingsplats på tumblr för sätt i sverige att organisera sig lokalt, och vill verkligen bara att rätt ska va rätt.

Fallisce la svedese Northvolt, produceva batterie per veicoli elettrici.

Quelli responsabili del “successone” Northvolt vogliono che noi paghiamo loro un esercito. Cosa potrà mai andare storto? Per chi non fosse al corrente: Northvolt, fondata nel 2016, aveva raccolto finanziamenti per circa 15 miliardi di dollari con l'obiettivo di creare una filiera europea indipendente per le batterie, riducendo la dipendenza dai produttori asiatici. Tuttavia, nel novembre 2024, l'azienda ha dichiarato bancarotta negli Stati Uniti, avvalendosi del Chapter 11, una norma fallimentare che permette di continuare le operazioni mentre si cerca un accordo con i creditori. Con debiti per 5,8 miliardi di dollari e solo 30 milioni di liquidità in cassa, Northvolt ha dovuto affrontare una situazione critica, segnata da licenziamenti massicci (1.600 dipendenti, circa un quinto della forza lavoro globale), chiusura di siti e problemi operativi, come l'incapacità di aumentare la produzione su larga scala nella sua principale fabbrica di Skellefteå, in Svezia. Tra i fattori che hanno contribuito al fallimento ci sono stati: - **Problemi tecnici e operativi**: la produzione non ha mai raggiunto i livelli previsti, con la fabbrica di Skellefteå che operava a meno dell'1% della capacità teorica. - **Incidenti e sicurezza**: si sono verificati incidenti gravi, tra cui esplosioni e morti sul lavoro, che hanno danneggiato la reputazione dell'azienda. - **Competizione asiatica**: i costi di produzione europei, appesantiti da normative complesse e burocrazia, non sono riusciti a competere con quelli dei giganti asiatici come CATL, che stanno espandendo la loro presenza in Europa. - **Errori strategici**: l'azienda ha puntato su un'espansione ambiziosa senza consolidare una base operativa solida, portando a perdite nette di 1,2 miliardi di dollari nel 2023. Questo caso evidenzia le difficoltà dell'Europa nel costruire un'industria delle batterie competitiva, nonostante gli sforzi politici e i sussidi pubblici, come i 902 milioni di euro stanziati dalla Germania per una gigafactory a Heide. Il fallimento di Northvolt ha anche sollevato preoccupazioni sul rischio di una crescente dipendenza dalla Cina, che domina il mercato globale delle batterie e sta costruendo impianti in Europa, come quello di CATL in Germania e Ungheria. Va notato che non tutte le "mega fabbriche" di batterie europee hanno fallito. Ad esempio, progetti come quello di Automotive Cells Company (ACC) in Francia, con la partecipazione di Stellantis, Mercedes-Benz e TotalEnergies, stanno proseguendo, anche se con ritardi e difficoltà simili legate a costi e competizione. Tuttavia, il caso Northvolt rappresenta un campanello d'allarme per l'Europa, che deve affrontare sfide strutturali, normative e competitive per raggiungere l'autonomia strategica nel settore delle batterie.

“You know, you’ll read all these things about this or that unhappiness, I can tell you this: they’re happy for J.T. They’re genuinely happy for him.” - the actual Michael Bublé

Canucks roundup February 2nd 2025 - February 9th 2025 (featuring more Bublé):

Sherwood after missing four games: "I haven't chirped anyone in a week. Feels like a couple months."

Michael Bublé on Demko, Petey, and J.T.:

“I wrote Thatcher last night [after his 3-0 shutout against the Avalanche] and told him that I was just happy for him. I know it means a lot, and he loves the people here, man. He just loves it, it means a lot to him. He’s a really competitive guy, and I know they care. They want to be here.

“I can see Petey’s turning it on, and he’s happy, and he’s doing - he wants it real bad. You know, he wants to show everybody, he wants to show the doubters, and he wants to do it for himself, for his coach, for his teammates.

“You know, you’ll read all these things about this or that unhappiness, I can tell you this: they’re happy for J.T. They’re genuinely happy for him. Those guys are happy for his success, they know he had to go, of course they know what they’re losing, but they’re also happy for themselves. That’s a happy dressing room. That’s a bunch of guys who are really excited to show us that they’re galvanized, that they want this badly.”

D-Petey has been learning how to fight from an Abby teammate:

Quadrelli: “I got told very recently by a source out in Abbotsford that, either after after a practice or before a practice, D-Petey was out with one of the AHL guys learning where to grab on the jersey, and he was practicing some form for how to fight […] he was just out there practicing his technique.”

Chytil on Hronek (who chirped him in Czech during the media scrum) after getting to Vancouver:

“Yeah, we’ve played a couple tournaments together […] he’s a very good guy. When I heard about the trade, he was texting me right after the game in Dallas. It was very nice from him, and then other guys on the team reached out to me as well. It’s very nice from them, and I’m very happy it was like that. With Filip, yeah, he’s helping me already. I’ve been here a couple hours, but he’s helping me a lot, and I’m very happy he’s here.”

Women’s hockey roundup: 10/31-12/9

As per usual, this covers the PWHL but also all professional women’s hockey and some international news with some added focus on international leagues. It does not cover college due to time constraints but happy to point to any resources if needed. 100% confirmed news only

Also did something a bit different this month and tried to order points from what I think is most newsworthy at the top but it’s not a super strict order

RoKi got their first win of the season!

Top players: - After a bit of a down year last year, Salla Sivula (KalPa) has a .944 save percentage while facing the highest workload of any goalie in the league, and has four shutouts on the year. Sivula has been in the league since 2018-2019 and is currently on pace to set career highs on her new team - 21 year old Lisette Täks continues to make her case for the national team after playing at an elite level in auroraliiga the past two years.

Coach Johanna Ikonen of HC Davos Ladies signs an extension through 2026/2027. The former Finnish National Team Player is in her first year coaching the HC Davos Ladies, but has a wealth of experience coaching women's pro teams. HC Davos Ladies are currently in second place, a major improvement from last year when they were in fifth place with a negative goal differential.

Naemi Herzig (EVZ) has committed to College of the Holy Cross

New Injuries: Annika Fazokas (EVZ) it out with a concussion

SC Bern Frauen is in first with HC Davos right behind. EVZ Women's Team could also make a run for one of the first two spots and have a game in hand. SC Langenthal Damen and Neuchâtel Hockey Academy Dames will almost certainly be relegated

Current top performers: - Elizabeth Lang (HC Davos Ladies) rookie out of University of Calgary with a league leading 37 points in 18 games -Estelle Duvin (SC Bern Fraun), who's been one of the MVP's of the SWHL the past few years, has 34 points in 18 games -Michaela Pejzlová (HC Ambrì-Piotta), a czech national team player in her first SWHL season after many years as a MVP caliber player in Auroraliiga, has 31 goals in 17 games

EWHL (Central/Eastern Europe)

Aisulu Almaty, HK PSRZ Bratislava, SKN Sabres St.Pölten are all extremely close in points in the top three spots. EV Bozen Eagles and KSV Neuberg Highlanders sit close behind them. Anyone in the top five spots could finish first.

Top players -Kristin Della Rovere (EV Bozen Eagles) is your top scorer with 33 points in 14 games -Latvian goaltender Kristiana Apsite for DEC Salzburg Eagles has been the most impressive goaltender to me. While goalies like Seeley have better numbers, Apsite's workload has been insane. Despite being on the worst team and facing the second most shots in the league (about 38 shots a game) she is putting up respectable numbers with a .911 save percentage -Slovak forward Ema Tothova is still the best u18 player, just as she was last year. The 17 year old has 18 points in 13 games. She is also playing in a boy's-majority u18 league at the same time

International news:

The 6-Nations event in Tampere begins December 11 to 15th, with Switzerland, Finland, Czechia, Sweden, USA, and Canada. The tournament rosters are made up primarily of the younger talent and ncaa players in each national teams pipelines. Most pro leagues are on break as a result

Tommy Körberg appreciation post! This man is and will always and forever be my favorite vocalist ever!! And the greatest thing is he's 76, and is still going strong and performing in public! Every time I listen to his voice I get goosebumps. His voice captures almost any song ever perfectly, and I don't know how! I particularly love his performance in Chess, specifically "Anthem" and "Endgame" (Skellefteå performance in 1989 is the best) have made me ugly cry. He gets recognized for Chess worldwide, and for good reason! But something that not many people know about is his other music, I love his albums so much too, I'm American and feel kinda weird listening to Swedish music, but it is honestly the best thing EVER!! His album "Är" is my favorite, and I've listened to it a lot. I've listened to Chess a lot more probably, because it's my favorite musical ever. Also, the video of his duet of "Beauty And The Beast" with Celine Dion is great because he absolutely hits it out of the park and does so phenomenal. Also his voice and Sissel Kyrkjebø's fit so well together, and the duets they did in the 80s were FANTASTIC!
