Today in Labor History April 19, 1913: Modestino Valentino, a bystander, was shot and killed by company detectives during a conflict between IWW strikers and scabs in Patterson, N.J., during the infamous Silk Strike, which the workers ultimately lost on July 28, 1913. During the strike, 1,850 workers were arrested, including Elizabeth Gurley Flynn and Big Bill Haywood.

Today In Labor History April 3, 1913: Pietro Botto, socialist mayor of Haledon, N.J., invited the Paterson silk mill strikers to assemble in front of his house. 20,000 showed up to hear speakers from the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), Upton Sinclair, John Reed and others, who urged them to remain strong in their fight. The Patterson strike lasted from Feb. 1 until July 28, 1913. Workers were fighting for the eight-hour workday and better working conditions. Over 1800 workers were arrested during the strike, including IWW leaders Big Bill Haywood and Elizabeth Gurley Flynn. Five were killed. Overall, the strike was poorly organized and confined to Paterson. The IWW, the main organizer of the strike, eventually gave up.

Ein netter Artikel über den #Computerviren-Experten #BerndFix, dem ich noch Unterlagen zum #Physikpraktikum an der #GeorgAugustUniversität #Göttingen aus den Jahren 1983/84 schuldig bin. Der #ZZtop-Fan programmierte bereits fleissig auf Rechnern der #GWDG, als ich noch über den #Mathematik-Übungsblättern von #Grauert und #Patterson brütete.

Seine damalige Sicht, Computer & #Software zum Werkzeug einer humaneren Welt machen zu können, traf meine Skepsis.

(The following is a very quick mind dump. Unedited. Raw.)

I prefer black and white over color film for most of my photographic work.

I do shoot color film. I mostly like to capture personal memories on color film while reserving black and white for my more serious, thought out photography. I think black and white captures the spirit of a person far better than color does. But I think color […]

Today in Labor History February 1, 1913: The IWW Patterson silk workers’ strike began. They were fighting for an 8-hr work day and better working conditions. Over the course of the strike, 1,850 workers were arrested, including Big Bill Haywood and Elizabeth Gurley Flynn. Within the first two weeks of the strike, they had brought out workers from all the local mills in a General Strike of weavers and millworkers. Two workers died in the struggle, one shot by a vigilante and the other by a private guard. The strike ended in failure on July 28.

Since my eyes are hurting from this infection, I listened to the end of the audio book I started during our recent flights: Eruption by Michael Crichton & James Patterson.

Mostly good, although the ending seemed a little rushed. Would still recommend it, if you like either author’s other works.

Yesterday the Corral Fire, today the #Patterson fire a few miles north. Yes it's windy out but what's igniting these? #cawx #wildfire
