The acquisition of Silverback 7 will expand our ability to support vital national security programs, and there's not a better business-friendly environment to do that than right here in Central Florida.

Power and those in control concede nothing ... without a demand. Hey never have and never will... Each and every one of us must keep demanding, must keep fighting, must keep thundering, must keep plowing, must keep on keeping things struggling, must speak out and speak up until justice is served because where there is no justice there is no peace.
