Where's my galaxy-level Krillin?
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 03:05 PM by Frederica Bernkastel
Bils really ain't going to be much slower than him either, he's just lazy which is why he had Whis fly him there.
To get to the center of the sphere he would have had to have flown AT LEAST one galaxy length + half the distance between two of the galaxies. The closest spiral galaxy (that resembles the milky way) would be the Andromeda Galaxy and that's 2,538,000 light years away.
100000 + (2538000/2) = 1369000ly.
1369000ly = 12951463400000000000000m
It took 28 minutes.
12951463400000000000000/(28*60) = 7709204400000000000m/s or 25,697,348,000x the speed of light

WTF. That gave me a bit of cancer.

Thing is Whis, Bils and SSJ God Goku may be fast, but they certainly aren't strong enough to dent most Marvel/DC characters.
Whis is at 25 bil x the speed of light. Bils isn't far behind. And Goku is at less than 70% of Bils' movement speed.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 04:04 PM by God Movement
Apparently Weiss is the one who controls the flight.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 04:13 PM by Liquid
We're aware, although that was because Bils is a lazy fuck and can't be bothered to fly by himself. He can obviously keep up because Whis trained him.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 04:15 PM by God Movement
True but I can already imagine how that little detail will be exploited.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 04:17 PM by Liquid
as far as I know post-crisis Superman is @ ~millions FTL
billions > millions
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 04:19 PM by Weiss
No-one could possibly argue with a straight face that Whis is 25 billion times the speed of Bils.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 04:23 PM by God Movement
I'm convinced.
So Bils is FTL, what about his Galaxy level DC hype? I'm assuming that won't be taken at face value.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 04:29 PM by Liquid
Well just to drop in, the Other World is a different dimension from the living, physical world so I don't see how you can cross that physically to get to earth.
Unless I'm misreading something of how it happens or the like.
The movie came out today so we probably should see what happens.
Out of curiosity and since I'm too lazy to read ATM, where does the solar system busting come in?
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 06:00 PM by Nevermind
That's what they said in the manga, but it turns out that they're all located in the same "sphere"
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 06:06 PM by Toriko
Huh....? But that doesn't make any sense.
Still it is probably better just to wait and see for sure. It'll probably be fansubbed in a few weeks as has been said before.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 06:16 PM by Nevermind
Yeah not to sure how they FLEW there, but apparently they did.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 06:21 PM by God Movement
There's a clip showing it in the metadome.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 06:24 PM by Toriko
The solar system thing comes when Whis' states that if they keep annoying Bills, the entire solar system will be destroyed in no time at all. One would think that the one who trains and oversees Gods of Destructions would know what they can destroy, but it's whatever.
|Posted 03-30-2013 at 07:13 PM by La speranza
Just read the synopsis looks like tables got mentioned so I guess this is like yo son goku and friends return . Sure Mike is gonna go to town on this one
Still Bills is cool and has some personality

Take yourself back to 2005. Look at the Seattle roster. From 1 to 53 does the name LeRoy Hill stand out as a name that you thought could still be on the team in 2012? Fat chance.
But that's just where you'll find him.
Only now he's a grizzled vet, a team leader, a fan favorite. Under the hood he's the same old LeRoy though. The mean streak that every NFL team wishes they could have.
Linebacker LeRoy Hill has a lot of past behind him as he enters his eighth season in the NFL with the Seattle Seahawks. The veteran leader has had his share of experience as a former rookie star with Super Bowl experience and many productive seasons.
Hill has also had many complications with the law.
After an impressive college career with Clemson, Hill was selected 34th in the 2005 NFL Draft by Seattle.
After a knee injury sidelined vet Jamie Sharper halfway through the season, Hill was thrust into the starting position as a rookie along with Lofa Tatupu. He finished the season with 72 tackles and 7.5 sacks, earning him a spot on the Pro Bowl roster although he was not able to play due to an ankle injury.Big Play Ability
He was a key factor in bringing the 13-3 Seahawks to Super Bowl XL that same year, only to end up losing to the Steelers 21-10.
He played considerably well every season after his first. He made the big plays when they mattered and it was obvious how much the game meant to him.
His performance earned respect from the coaches and turned him into a veteran leader. In 2010 an achilles injury put him on the injured reserve, ending his season after only one game.
He was a key factor in bringing the 13-3 Seahawks to Super Bowl XL
Hill was thought to have a lot of potential coming back from his injury and he was determined to make a name for himself.Bad Boy
But troubles off the field have caused some concern, as he already had two run-ins with the law. In January 2009 he was arrested in Atlanta for marijuana possesion.
The police found him passed out in his car at an intesection.
The following year Hill was arrested in the town of Issaquah, WA due to suspicions about domestic abuse. He allegedly hit his girlfriend.
Just a couple of months after the end of the 2011 season, Hill was charged with marijuana possession again, but the charges were later dropped after Hill successfully passed a drug test.
Hill has recently re-signed with the Seahawks, so check out why we're happy about it.
Although LeRoy Hill has not met the same sack total that he had his rookie season, he has still been a key component to Seattle's young and upcoming defense. He finished the 2011 season with 89 tackles, his second best result of his career.
I predict that Hill will be an interesting player to watch during the 2012 season, as he is due for yet another breakout year.
He does have quite a few character concerns, but Pete Carroll is known for keeping his players under control.
At age 29, Hill potentially has a lot more game left in him.
He's dedicated himself to staying in Seattle a bit longer.
LeRoy Hill on getting lighter this offseason #Seahawks – "More of a vet. Want to keep it going Feel like I'm yr 2 or 3. Lighter, Thinner!"

Sadler has sights set on strong finish
Updated: October 2, 2005, 1:14 PM ETAssociated Press
TALLADEGA, Ala. -- While nearly everyone is watching the 10-man NASCAR Nextel Cup championship battle, Elliott Sadler is chasing an 11th-place finish that would pay his team a $1 million bonus and provide momentum for 2006.
Sadler got a leg up on the competition Friday by winning the pole for the UAW-Ford 500 at Talladega Superspeedway in the No. 38 Ford with a lap of 189.260 mph.
Sadler, who came up just 66 points short of making it into the
playoff-style Chase, is back up ...

Republican senators mull border compromise for U.S. immigration bill
WASHINGTON, June 17 (Reuters) – A small group of Republican
senators worked Monday on a possible border security compromise
that would make a sweeping immigration bill more acceptable to
some otherwise reluctant conservatives.
The proposal is aimed at a satisfying calls by Republicans
for further steps to secure the U.S.-Mexico border as part of
the legislation currently being debated in the U.S. Senate that
would grant legal status to millions of undocumented immigrants
already in the United States.
Cuban-American Democrat is Rubio counterweight on immigration
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – As the Senate debates the most far reaching immigration bill in a generation, all eyes are on Cuban-American Senator Marco Rubio, wondering if he might walk away from it.
There are concerns that the rising political star from Florida, crucial to attracting Republican support for the legislation, may decide it doesn't do enough to bolster security on the U.S.-Mexico border – a priority for conservatives.
Silicon Valley intensifies lobbying on U.S. immigration bill
WASHINGTON, June 12 (Reuters) – Eager to secure more visas
for skilled foreign workers, tech companies have stepped up
their lobbying this week in support of a comprehensive U.S.
immigration reform bill.
Human resources executives from Adobe, Broadcom
, Intel, Motorola Solutions and other
corporations met with dozens of lawmakers and senior advisers on
Wednesday from the congressional committees in charge of
immigration laws.
Lawmakers urge review of U.S. domestic spying, Patriot Act
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. lawmakers called on Sunday for a review of the government's monitoring of phone and Internet activities, and one Democrat urged a reopening of the Patriot Act, the post-September 11, 2001 law that gave intelligence agencies broader surveillance powers.
President Barack Obama's administration has come under criticism after the disclosure that the super-secret National Security Agency has been collecting massive amounts of data from private companies on phone calls and emails.
U.S. senator seeks review of Patriot Act amid surveillance report
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A Democratic senator called on Sunday for a review of the Patriot Act, the post-September 11, 2001, law that gave U.S. intelligence agencies broader powers of data surveillance, after disclosures the government has been collecting massive amounts of data on phone and Internet activities.
Senator Mark Udall, a member of the Intelligence Committee, said he thought another look at the law was warranted as reports of the data collection stirred a debate over privacy rights in the United States.
Republican Senator Ayotte endorses immigration bill
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Republican Senator Kelly Ayotte on Sunday threw her support behind a sweeping U.S. immigration bill, calling it a "thoughtful" reform that would ease the burden of illegal immigration and allow companies to more easily hire qualified workers.
Support from Ayotte, who has been courted by the bill's backers, could pave the way for other Republicans to endorse the measure in the Senate, where a vote is expected by the end of June.
Senator calls for reopening of the Patriot Act
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A Democratic senator called on Sunday for a reopening of the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the post-September 11, 2001, law that gave intelligence agencies broader powers of data surveillance, after disclosures the government has been collecting massive amounts of data on phone and Internet activities.
Senator Mark Udall of Colorado said he thought a review of the law was warranted as reports of the data collection stirred a debate over privacy rights in the United States.
Senator Paul says he's open to voting for immigration bill
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Senator Rand Paul, a conservative Republican whose vote is being courted by supporters of a broad U.S. immigration bill, said on Sunday he is open to voting for the measure but wants changes, including tougher border security requirements.
Paul, who has hinted at an interest in running for president in 2016, in March backed the concept of a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants that is at the heart of a comprehensive immigration bill under consideration in the U.S. Senate.
Senate Republicans push tougher border plans in U.S. immigration bill
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Two leading Republican senators on Wednesday unveiled proposals requiring much tighter security on the U.S.-Mexico border before undocumented immigrants could gain legal status under the broad immigration bill the Senate is considering.
The two separate amendments by John Cornyn, the second-ranking Senate Republican, and Rand Paul, a potential 2016 presidential contender, are likely to draw fire from many Democrats who have said such provisions would erode the path to citizenship at the heart of the White House-backed bill.
Senior Republican pushes tougher border plan for immigration bill
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The second-ranking Senate Republican on Wednesday unveiled a proposal to significantly tighten security on the U.S.-Mexico border before giving undocumented workers legal status in the broad immigration bill being considered in the U.S. Senate.
The proposal from Senator John Cornyn of Texas, a skeptic of the bill that would grant legal status to some 11 million undocumented immigrants, would require the Department of Homeland Security to have surveillance over the entire U.S.-Mexico border and meet a benchmark of apprehending at least 90 percent of people trying to cross the border illegally.

Models, Tools, and Databases for Climate Change Research
- Climate Change and Watersheds Model (BASINS-CAT)
BASINS is a multi-purpose, environmental analysis system that integrates a geographical information system (GIS), national watershed data, and state-of-the-art watershed modeling tools, including the Hydrologic Simulation Program (HSPF) FORTRAN model, into one package. BASINS CAT extends the existing capabilities of BASINS to facilitate watershed-based assessments of the potential implications of climate variability and change on water and watershed systems using the HSPF model.
BASINS CAT provides flexible capabilities for creating climate change scenarios allowing users to quickly assess a wide range of what if questions about how weather and climate could affect their systems. BASINS CAT does not provide climate change data for specific regions and watersheds. Combined with the existing capabilities of HSPF for assessing the effects of land-use change and management practices, BASINS CAT can be used to assess the coupled effects of climate and land-use change, and to guide the development of effective management responses.
- Community Multi-scale Air Quality Model (CMAQ)
CMAQ is an air quality model and software suite designed to model multiple pollutants at multiple scales. CMAQ allows regulatory agencies and state governments to evaluate the impact of air quality management decisions, and gives scientists the ability to probe, simulate, and understand chemical and physical interactions in the atmosphere.
GLIMPSE is a tool to find US policy scenarios that simultaneously improve air quality human health, reduce impacts to ecosystems, and mitigate climate change. It is designed to be fast -- to allow decision-makers to explore a range of options, as well as comprehensive -- to avoid unintended consequences.
The HYGEIA model predicts the effects of climate change induced heat stress on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Using census block data the model assesses the vulnerability of various demographic groupings over time and space, and predicts morbidity and mortality under future climate conditions and under conditions that mitigate climate extremes. The model is currently undergoing further development to address the effects of airborne particulate matter on cardio-pulmonary functions and adverse outcomes.
- Water Erosion Prediction Project Climate Assessment Tool (WEPPCAT)
WEPPCAT provides a flexible capability for creating user-determined climate change scenarios for assessing the potential impacts of climate change on sediment loading to streams using the USDA's Water Erosion Prediction Project (WEPP) Model. In combination with the existing capabilities of WEPP for assessing the effectiveness of management practices, WEPPCAT also can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of strategies for managing the impacts of climate change.
- Integrated Climate and Land use Scenarios (ICLUS)
Climate change and land-use change are global drivers of environmental change. Impact assessments frequently show that interactions between climate and land-use changes can create serious challenges for aquatic ecosystems, water quality, and air quality. Population projections to 2100 were used to model the distribution of new housing across the landscape. In addition, housing density was used to estimate changes in impervious surface cover. A final report, datasets, the ICLUS+ Web Viewer and ArcGIS tools are available.
- Remote Sensing Information Gateway (RSIG)
RSIG offers a new way for users to get the multi-terabyte, environmental datasets they want via an interactive, Web browser-based application. A file download and parsing process that now takes months will be reduced via RSIG to minutes.
- Greenhouse Gases Mitigation Options Database (GMOD)
GMOD is a decision support database and tool that is designed to evaluate mitigation options to support state and regional level activities and independent research. GMOD's primary goal is to give the decision maker an option to generate realistic technology choices that are comparable for engineering and economic analyses. GMOD serves as a comprehensive information source on GHG control options for state agencies, and the tool provides decision makers with the capability to develop a host of alternative scenarios by constructing a conceptual-based source with suitable alternative control technologies.
- Freshwater Biological Traits Database
The Freshwater Biological Traits Database has data for nearly 4000 North American macroinvertebrate taxa, and includes habitat, life history, mobility, morphology and ecological trait data. The traits data were gathered from multiple sources, which are listed on the web site under, "Data Source". Data gathering efforts focused on data that were published or otherwise well-documented by trustworthy sources, accessible, appropriate for the regions being studied, in a standardized format that could be analyzed or easily converted to a format that could be analyzed, and ecologically relevant to the gradients being considered.

It's a small thing, this one - but not a lot of people seem to know about it, so I thought I'd add it in here.
It's not uncommon that I find myself wanting to hack at a .csproj or .vbproj file directly (for example, to set a dependency between a XAML file and its code behind file, or simply to rename the code-behind file). As you probably know, in Visual Studio 2005 we revamped the build system with the introduction of a new technology called MSBuild. Project files are now XML descriptions of the various files, dependencies and property settings that make up an application, along with a means to describe how an individual file type gets built. (More details in this month's MSDN Magazine.)
Unfortunately, you can't just right-click on the project file in Visual Studio and choose "edit", which means that quite a lot of the advanced customization capabilities are opaque from the developer environment. In our customer labs, I therefore frequently see people who have opened Notepad to edit the project file, but of course Notepad is hardly the pinnacle of developer editors.
So here's how to edit a project file within Visual Studio 2005:

In the wake of the Great Depression, one of Franklin Roosevelt's most successful New Deal programs was the formation of the Tennessee Valley Authority, a federal government-owned corporation created in 1933 to revitalize the Tennessee River Valley. The TVA provided navigation, flood control, electricity generation, strategic materials for national defense, economic development, unemployment relief, and an overall improvement of living conditions in this once-impoverished rural area.
The TVA Architects Office built a huge number of structures during the late 1930s and early 1940s, including the many dams that dramatically altered life in the Tennessee River Valley. Its design agenda was comprehensive, addressing all scales of design--from door handles to landscape--with equal dedication.
The Tennessee Valley Authority: Design and Persuasion
, the most in-depth examination of the TVA ever assembled, includes essays by experts in the fields of architecture, landscape architecture, graphic design, industrial design, and the fine arts.
In serving the social, political, and economic endeavors of the government, TVA architects directly helped shape the nascent American design culture and, arguably, create the finest extended body of modernist architecture--and certainly its most technologically sublime--in North America. Featuring new photography by Richard Barnes,
The Tennessee Valley Authority
interweaves technical, political, aesthetic, and cultural concerns to complete a missing chapter in the study of modern American architecture and design. The book includes an introduction by former Senator Howard H. Baker, Jr.

Reader Comments
Architecture (rating 5 out of 5):
The architecture in the TVA is amazing. There is none like it elsewhere that I have seen. There are some old buildings and houses that need renovation but that can easily be done by replacing the wood siding with real brick. There is a company that does this called, Tru-Brix. They convert a wooden house into a brick home and it's not expensive. Anyways, anyone who's been to E.T. can testify about the great architecture there.

History of Workers' Movements in the United States
Download the file (MP3, length: 35 minutes, filesize: 12.1 MB)
Guest: Howard Zinn, historian and author of A People's History of the United States: 1492 to Present
The following program was recorded at the studio of Democracy Now! on August 14, 2006.
Amy Goodman: Welcome to this POV podcast special. I'm Amy Goodman. As we talk about Waging a Living we turn to legendary historian Howard Zinn, author of among other books, A People's History of the United States. I asked Howard Zinn to talk about the history of poor and working people's movements throughout the history of this country.
Howard Zinn: I think what is not known, and what can't be known from the history that we get in school, is how much class conflict there was in the early years of the colonies, before even the American Revolution. Generally history starts with the American Revolution, and that's a big jump from Columbus to the American Revolution, but before the revolution there were uprisings of servants. So much of the working population of the colonies consisted of indentured servants who had been brought here almost in a state of slavery. And many times they rebelled against their masters.
There were also early strikes, even back in the 17th century, of skilled workers, coopers, butchers, bakers and porters against the government controlling the fees that they got. We didn't have factory workers at that time but we had individual tradesmen, and the government, as usual, was controlling how much they could charge, and so they very often went on strike against this. Back before the American Revolution in the 1730s and '40s there were riots of poor people in the big cities in the United States because there was so much poverty. It's interesting how today one percent of the population owns 40 percent of the wealth; well, that's just about what the ratio was in the 1750s and 1760s. The contrast between rich and poor was even greater then because there was no real middle class. And so you had riots of poor people.
In Boston people would riot in the 1730s and they'd demolish the public market, always protesting against high prices. In those years 90 percent of the people were farmers, and so the poor were farmers more than they were urban poor, and farmers very often rioted against their landlords. In the decades before the Civil War in New Jersey, and in the Hudson Valley, in New York State. They would occupy lands that were claimed by these rich landowners who had been given these huge grants of land by the crown. When some of them were arrested, the farmers would storm the jail and release the person who had been arrested for nonpayment of his taxes. And this continued into the years just before the revolution.
Very often when the American Revolution is discussed in history classes, it's a matter of the colonists versus the English, but what they neglect is the fact that the colonists themselves were divided among rich and poor. For instance, the Stamp Act riots of the 1760s is taught as a rebellion against the British crown and the Stamp Act in school; but the riots against the Stamp Act were as much riots against the rich local people, the rich officials. In the riots against the Stamp Act, the poor would break into the houses of the rich and show their anger at their own condition.
My point is that before the revolution, class conflict was rife throughout the colonies and into the revolution. Poor people were really in a situation where they were treated in the military like dirt. They saw the rich getting clothes and shoes and pay, and so there were mutinies of the poor. After the revolution this turned into veterans organizing against the rich of the legislatures. The most famous of these occurred just before the Constitution was adopted, such as Shay's Rebellion in western Massachusetts Similar rebellions occurred in other states where poor people, many of them veterans of the Revolutionary War, were angry about the taxes which were being levied on them, which they couldn't pay and so their farms were being taken away from them. And Shay's Rebellion was a very scary rebellion for the leaders of the colonies, for the founding fathers. The Constitution, when it was adopted in 1787, was in great measure a way of setting up a government that would be strong enough to deal with poor people's rebellions like Shay's Rebellion. I mean, they were very explicit about it. On the eve of the drafting of the Constitution, when Shay's Rebellion took place, one of Washington's generals said, "These people who fought in the revolution think that now they're entitled to some of the wealth of the country, and we have to make sure this doesn't happen again."

So those were years when it was mostly farmers who were rebelling, although city poor also rebelled against their condition in those early years. But the first real factory strikes came in the 1820s and 1830s by women, by the mill girls of New England in Lowell, Massachusetts and Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The very first strike of factory girls took place in the 1830s, and at one point 20 textile mills were out on strike. These girls were anywhere from 12 years old and 15 or 16 years old. They were working 15 and 16 hours a day, they were being given a few minutes for lunch, and they were protesting against the length of the working day and protesting against not having enough time to [eat] their lunch. In the mid-1830s, there were over 100 strikes of mill girls. And they were organized. They set up an association and they put out a newspaper. In a good library, you can still find the newspaper that they put out in the mills.
The history of the Civil War is a history mostly of battles, but what is ignored is that during the Civil War poor people in both the North and the South were protesting against their conditions, and it took different forms. In the North, it took the form of the Irish and the draft riots of 1863, seeing that the rich were getting out of the military by paying $300, and the poor were being drafted to die in the Civil War. The Irish were livid. They were like most immigrants who come to this country, living under terrible conditions and working for very little, and now they were being asked to die in a war. So you have these great draft riots, the greatest sort of internal insurrections that we have had in the history of this country. In the South, poor people were going to fight for the Confederacy, and meanwhile their women back home were facing starvation because the plantation owners were growing cotton instead of food because cotton was profitable and food was not. So you found, for instance, in the state of Georgia, that women rioted in order to protest against the fact that their young people or their husbands, their brothers, were off fighting in the Civil War and they didn't have enough food.
So class conflict went on through the Civil War, and that part of the Civil War is submerged in the glorious story of battles of Gettysburg and Antietam and so on. In fact, right on the eve of the Civil War, in 1860, one of the great strikes of working people took place; this was a huge strike of thousands and thousands of people in Lynn, Massachusetts. They were shoemakers who went on strike. Five thousand of them marched through the city in protest against the fact that their wages were being cut. Even in the midst of the Civil War, there were strikes of workers, and what happens is that war always submerges the class conflict that takes place and conceals the divisions of rich and poor. And that was also true during the Civil War.
When the Civil War was over, it was not as easy to suppress and conceal those class conflicts under the flag of patriotism and war. And so when there was a real serious depression in 1873, the railroad workers along the East Coast were having their wages cut by the railroads, while the railroads were making great profits. The Vanderbilts made profits and the railroad companies had an enormous amount of corruption, but they would not give the workers what they wanted. So in 1877 there were strikes through out the East, in Chicago and Pittsburgh, and these were violent and bitter strikes. One hundred strikers were killed and thousands went to prison. The National Guard was called out; the Army was called out. And that inaugurated a whole series of working-class struggles through the late 19th and early 20th century.

The period between 1877 and 1914 is unequaled by any country in the world in the number of bitter conflicts between rich and poor, of working people organized. Because after the Civil War, working people began to organize. They formed the National Labor Union, which was the first national union of workers, and the American Federation of Labor (AF of L) was formed in the 1880s. You had strikes for the eight-hour day all over the country in 1886. That's where May Day originated. The workers were successful in winning the eight-hour day in many, many different places.
It's interesting that all of these struggles had to take place for the barest minimum of decent conditions, that is, just to work eight hours a day. What that points out, I think, is this enormous failure of the American system to take care of working people. When the Constitution was adopted in 1787, there was a Bill of Rights that came very soon after. The Bill of Rights granted, as most of us know, a whole series of political rights, freedom of speech, press and assembly, the right to trial by jury and the right to be free from unreasonable search and seizure. But these were political rights, there were no economic rights granted in the Constitution. That is why in 1944 when Franklin Roosevelt ran for office for his third term as president, he made the point that we needed an economic bill of rights to join the political bill of rights; an economic bill of rights in which it would be constitutionally guaranteed that people would have a living wage and that people would not have to work more than a certain number of hours, that people would get vacations, that people would get healthcare.
This was 1944, and we still have not achieved that. But the economic bill of rights missing in the Constitution made it inevitable that workers would have to get those rights by their own efforts, by organizing, by going on strike, by facing the police and the sheriffs and the National Guard and the Army. That's why we had such a series of bitter labor struggles in this country, because the political system, touted all over the world even today, this great democratic system, gave no economic rights to the working people. They had to fight for it themselves.
After the railroad strikes of 1877 and the eight-hour day strikes of 1886 there were more strikes. The Pullman Strike, which was led by the Socialist Eugene Debs in 1894 — well, actually he wasn't a Socialist when he went to strike but after he went to jail and began to read, he came out a Socialist. After the turn of the century, you had the organization of the most militant and interesting labor movement probably in the history of this country, and that was the IWW, Industrial Workers of the World. They were rebelling against the fact that in the late 19th and early 20th century the country was, now more than ever before, controlled by corporate wealth. There were great monopolies of oil, steel, banking, railroads; JP Morgan, Carnegie and Rockefeller, and all their workers were being treated in the most miserable way, and at every economic crisis it was the working people who were suffering. When there was another economic crisis in 1893, the children of the working classes of the cities were dying in huge numbers of disease and starvation.

The IWW, formed in 1905, was in good part a rebellion against the conditions of working people. They organized in the mines; they organized in the mills. Their most successful organizing was done in 1912 in Lawrence, Massachusetts, with a textile strike of mostly immigrant women and girls working in the mills whose wages were being cut. The women and girls went on strike, and the IWW went in there to help them. And while most strikes are lost — most strikes are desperately lost — but enough of them win to tell workers that yes, if you persist and if you don't give up, you can defeat even the great corporations. That's what happened in 1912 when the workers and the IWW defeated the American Woolen Corporation in Lawrence, Massachusetts.
So that early period, the early 20th century, was a period of great working class organization. The IWW organized workers all over the country. The Socialist Party, which was at its height during that period, organized people. There's no doubt the success of the Socialist Party and the success of the IWW was due to the horrible conditions under which working people were living. When Upton Sinclair wrote The Jungle, he wrote about the conditions of the packinghouse workers in Chicago, but that same kind of book could have been written in any city in the country about the working people and what they were enduring.
We had, in this country, a lack of economic rights in the Constitution, a continuing series of strikes, and protests and that came to a head in the 1930s when the Depression left one third of the working population unemployed. Those working class movements, those poor people's movements, manifested themselves in the 1930s in many different ways. The very first, perhaps, was in 1932 when veterans of World War I, whose kids were going hungry, and who had been promised bonuses as a result of their service in World War I. The bonuses had never come through, and so they came from all over the country, 20,000 of them, to Washington D.C. and camped across the Potomac from Congress to demand their bonus. These were working class people from all over the country, veterans of World War I, demanding that something be done about them and their families. Well, they were broken up, they were attacked by the Army. And their tent colony was destroyed. But this was a very early manifestation in the 1930s of the rebellions that would take place through the rest of the decade.

This is something that Roosevelt faced when he came into office. A lot of people think, Well, we got all those New Deal reforms because Roosevelt was a kindhearted man and wanted to do something, and it's true Roosevelt was certainly more sensitive than most presidents have been to the plight of the poor, and he had Eleanor Roosevelt at his side, who was even more sensitive than he was, and I think was a good influence on him, but Roosevelt faced turmoil all over the country. He faced the unemployment councils and tenants' councils. He faced riots and rebellions. He faced a general strike in Minneapolis and a general strike in San Francisco. He faced, in 1934, 400,000 textile workers in the South going on strike. The country was in danger of having the whole system torn apart and I think Roosevelt was wise enough to sense that. The result was the reforms of the 1930s: Social Security, unemployment insurance, subsidized housing, and, for the first time, labor laws — the National Labor Relations Act, which gave some rights to labor unions.
The '30s were an amazing period of working class organization. That's when the CIO — the Congress of Industrial Organizations — was formed. That's when the sit-down strikes took place, an amazing new tactic of strikers, not leaving the factory and walking the picket line and facing the police, but staying in the factory and holding on to the property of the corporation and demanding that their union be recognized and that the conditions be changed. This was a high point in the organization of the American labor movement and the working class movements.
Even though World War II stifled class conflict, as all wars tend to stifle class conflict in the name of rallying around the flag, facing a common enemy, patriotism and all of that, there were strikes during World War II by workers who felt that — as always in a war — there was profiteering by the rich, making a lot of money through war contracts while the workers' wages were being held down. When the war was over these strikes erupted all over the country.
Of course, since then, we've had a diminution of the power of the labor movement: the CIO merged with the AFL, and the militancy of the CIO, to a great extent, has been lost in the vast bureaucracy of the AFL/CIO. But despite that, there have been movements of workers, whether in unions or outside of unions, to try to better their conditions. In the 1960s, there was a welfare rights movement, and that was something that took place outside the union movement. It was a movement that pointed to the condition of poor people. And I'm sure the welfare rights movement of the '60s along with the other movements of that time — that is, the Civil Rights Movement and the movement against the war in Vietnam and the Women's Movement — I think all of that contributed to an atmosphere in which you could get some reforms in the 1960s for working people. You could get Medicare and Medicaid. So the 1960s, like the 1930s, was a period of great social movements which brought some reforms. During that period, in the 1960s, we saw the farm workers union: this was something that had its roots back in the 1930s when sharecroppers organized a union in the South. But there's kind of a continuum from the populist movement of the farmers of the 1880s and '90s, to the sharecroppers union of the 1930s, and then to the farm workers union out on the West Coast in the 1960s. This includes Caesar Chavez and others who are amazing examples of very poor and apparently powerless people succeeding in changing their conditions, and forcing these very wealthy fruit growers on the West Coast to improve the conditions of workers and to recognize the farm workers union.
All of this is a history that is now continuing, I think, with the movement for the living wage that's taking place across this country. While the labor movement itself is not as powerful or as well organized as it was in the '30s and '40s, working people are still rebelling against their condition, and very often community people — whether it's students or other people in the community — are working along with these people in factories and mills and the janitors and bus drivers to get a living wage. So it's a long saga which still goes on.
Amy Goodman: When we talk about living wage campaigns, there's the minimum wage, there's living wage campaigns, and then there's the whole issue of overall benefits that living wage has to include healthcare. In this time of the consolidation of wealth, do you see the movement going backwards or forwards?
Zinn: Well, it's true, wealth is being consolidated. But I do believe that the healthcare issue has become very significant, to the point where autoworkers in the Midwest are striking not so much for hours and wages, but striking to maintain their health benefits. I think there's been more and more awareness of the shameful situation with healthcare in the United States, and I think there's some more education taking place about health care in other countries, which have a system where insurance companies are not involved, private enterprise is not involved, there's a direct relationship between the government and the doctors and the patients, with no intermediaries, and where everybody's entitled to free medical care.
This is something that our politicians have been very, very reluctant to come out in favor of, although back in the 1930s there were people calling for that, saying everybody's entitled to free healthcare. The government has the money and can raise the money, all the government has to do is cut the military budget and raise the taxes on the rich, and there'll be hundreds and hundreds of billions of dollars available to give everybody free medical care. I do believe that that idea is more and more taking hold. More and more people are becoming aware of it. People in Congress have a wonderful government healthcare program, why can't everybody have it? Medicare, the principle of Medicare, which has very low cost in its administrative network, could be extended to the whole population. I believe that there's a growing feeling about that. And I still think that it's inevitable that one of these days we are going to have a radical transformation of the health system, but it will take a lot more organization, a lot more protest and a stronger labor movement. But I think it's an idea whose time has come.
Amy Goodman: As we have this discussion in an election year do you think there is any sense of building opposition within the Democratic Party? We're speaking now at a time when the minimum wage — the minimum wage, not the living wage — has been defeated by Congress.
Zinn: It was defeated by Congress in good part because it was attached to an enormous cut in the taxes for the rich in the estate tax. But I do believe that at some point the minimum wage is going to have to be raised. And the Democratic Party has to listen to its constituency. Its constituency, much more than the Republican Party, consists of working people and people in the labor movement. I believe there are some signs inside the Democratic Party of rebellion against this old ossified leadership of the Democratic Party, some more signs of boldness. And my hope is that there will be a kind of grassroots rebellion inside the Democratic Party. It may not come about unless there's a threat from a third party, unless people across the country say very vigorously, we are not going to support the Democratic Party unless it comes out against the war, reduces the military budget, uses the money to help poor people and middleclass people. Listening to John Edwards on television he seems to be tuned in to the fact that there is conflict between the rich corporations and the ordinary American. And there's some promise there that the Democratic Party might face an internal rebellion which will move it in a progressive direction.
Amy Goodman: Howard Zinn, thank you very much for joining us.
Zinn: Thank you, Amy.

From: Rod-Lists ------------------------------------------------------ SCOTTY I NEED MORE POWER FOR THE SHIELDS?! ----------------------------- "For many in the Linux community, the topic of Ubuntu brings up ire and, in some cases, nothing short of rage. Why? On the surface it's easy to point to the likes of Unity and Mir as the primary reasons for the criticism and hatred. If you look deeper, however, I think it's much more complicated. I think Ubuntu faces this petulance because: Many users hate that Ubuntu is a commercial product Many "hard core" Linux users look at Ubuntu as "Linux lite" Many don't see Canonical giving back enough to the open source community I'm not here to negate those concerns (though I do not share them). Instead, I wanted to take a moment and imagine a world without Ubuntu. At first blush, one might think that world wouldn't change much from where it is now...there'd just be a different distribution in Ubuntu's place. Or would there? And therein lies the key to this line of thought." http://www.techrepublic.com/article/where-would-we-be-without-ubuntu/

From: Nick Smith ------------------------------------------------------ Hey Chugalugers! Here is what im working with: I have lots of SLES 11 and 12 machines and a couple Ubuntu and CentOs machines and the "Other" OS I need to centrally manage and update. I have to accomplish this with free tools, so tools like SUSE Manager and SCCM are out of the question. What I would like to have is a centralized place where i can kick off updates across all my servers, I have SMT for SLES and WSUS for Windows, so most of the updates are stored locally on the network and the servers are configured to look at those servers for updates. Im not a developer and dont play one on TV, so im hoping I can figure something out without having to deep dive into Ruby or Python or whatever Puppet and Chef are written with. One option ive found that looks promising is SaltStack. Can this be accomplished with SaltStack? If so, is anyone else doing this with good results? Configuration management would be nice, but not the primary goal of this project. It would also be nice to get some centralized reporting as to what servers havnt been updated or need to be updated. TheForman looked interesting but it looked puppet heavy as well. It doesnt look like Spacewalk (open source satellite) will do what i need, or work with all the OS's i need it to. Trying to automate the update process of all these servers and cut down on the time needed for updates. Not a huge environment, a little over 150 VMs, almost evenly split between linux and windows. What are you guys using to accomplish this? Thanks for the suggestions. -- -------------- Nick Smith nick at nicksmith dot us

From: David Rucker ------------------------------------------------------ I am looking at building a forum website for my program at school. Something where the students and admin can exchange information and ideas easily. I am part of a website that uses vBulletin and really like the way it looks and operates. However when I looked into vBulletin its expensive. Does anyone have any experience with any that are free and if not close to it that are fairly clean and easy to use on the User side of things? Complexity on the admin side doesn't matter and I have no preference as to options however the more the better. Oh and also I do my domain registration and hosting with GoDaddy and currently have plesk hosting enabled because it worked the best across all my computers. Which include multiple versions of Windows, OS X Yosemite, and Ubuntu. Thanks in advance! David Rucker

From: David Rucker ------------------------------------------------------ OK so every external Seagate drive I have ever owned dies if I start a copy operation that takes longer then 10 min. It also won't even work if remove it from the enclosure and connect it directly to mobo sata connection. Had a 3tb repaired from Seagate and it died again after getting it back less then a week. So I have never bought Seagate sense. I had a friend that's going over seas and wanted me to load a drive up with movies no biggie but I was afraid I'd have issues. Well sure enough drive died after coping 1 file to it. Now it shows in mmc as not initialized and when you try to initialize it just says device not ready. Any suggestions? Also note I haven't tried the drive on Ubuntu or Mac osx yet was planning that tonight. But I mean come on why are seagates so crappy?
