	Adam - LoveToKnow 1911
		One is that Adam is said to have had from the first a wicked heart, owing to which he fell, and his posterity likewise, into sin and guilt.
		The second began with righteous Noah and his household, "of whom came all righteous men." It was the descendants of these who "began again to do ungodliness more than the former ones." Doubtless the problem of evil is most imperfectly treated, even from the writer's point of view.
		And as at the head of the first age stands the first Adam, whose doings affected all his descendants to their harm, so at the head of the second shall stand the second Adam, whose actions shall be potent for good.

	Bremen Piracy and Scottish Periphery
		Bremen produced little which Scottish merchants could not obtain elsewhere and, despite the fame of its breweries, it was the rival beers of Hamburg and Stralsund that seem to have supplied the Scottish market with what, in any case, remained something of a luxury product for most Scots.
		According to the crown's letter to Bremen, although the Scottish embassy was to include urban representatives, it was to be led by a royal nominee, Thomas Preston.
		Bremen had something of a reputations the difficult daughter of the Hansa: its merchants had been excluded from Hanseatic privileges for a lengthy period from 1284, and then again briefly in 1427, for recalcitrance in adhering to Hanseatic policies.

	Is there anything wrong with the word "God"? - Forums at EliYah's Home Page
		Adam von Bremen etymologizes the god worshipped by the 11th century Scandinavian pagans as "Wodan id est furor" ("Wodan, which means 'fury'").
		The Old Norse semantic split is reflected in Adam von Bremen's testimony of the synchronic understanding of the name as "fury" rather than "poetry" or similar.
		Among East Germanic tribes, however, he seems to have remained the supreme god: the Goths of the 3rd century were feared because they sacrificed the captives they took in battle to Tyz, their god of war, and then hung the arms of the victims in trees as a token-offering.
