#ted ed history vs

[skorpi0n]

I have a liking for Ted Ed Che if you couldn't tell. (the shitty image quality is because I drew the image on my school iPad and took a photo of it with my phone.)

I DO NOT SUPPORT SACHA BARON COHEN, from my current understanding he's a Zionist.

The Evolution of Power Systems: Edison, Tesla, and Beyond

In the late 1800s, electrical power systems underwent a remarkable transformation driven by visionaries like Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla. Their contributions laid the foundation for the power systems we rely on today.

Edison championed direct current (DC) transmission, while Tesla advocated for alternating current (AC), sparking the famous "War of Currents." Ultimately, AC prevailed due to its efficiency over long distances and voltage transformation capabilities.

As the 20th century began, power generation and transmission rapidly advanced. Interconnected grids enabled resource-sharing on a larger scale. Technology, infrastructure, and regulation improved throughout the century, ensuring a reliable power supply as industries grew and urbanization expanded.

Today, power systems are complex networks comprising generators, transformers, transmission lines, distribution networks, and consumer loads. Sophisticated control measures and protective devices ensure stability and respond efficiently to contingencies and changing demands.

Understanding the history of power systems offers valuable insights into technological advancements, regulatory frameworks, and future possibilities. Join us in exploring the journey that has shaped our modern power systems.

I want to direct your attention to this short but awesome series called “History on Trial.” It’s a show that looks at controversial historical figures, measuring their faults, via a prosecution, and their achievements, via a defendant. Which side is right? Well, that’s up for the viewer to decide? This series makes you think, and I love that. Check it out.

[stitchs-nintendo-switch]

In NO world does someone need to do all that to provoke their point in a debate 😭

[emblem-333]

Who’ll Be Bernie Sanders’ Running Mate?

If nominated Bernie Sanders would act as a pallet cleanser for the big tent Democratic Party currently made up of poor, middle, working, upper, and professional class. While their Republican counterparts since the 1960’s have relied on disaffected white voters in the south, obvious vitriol for POCs. Regardless of how vile the Southern Strategy is, you can not deny it’s been a winner for the GOP. Sanders, a Democratic Socialist senator from the state of Vermont, doesn’t appeal to the wealthier brackets of voters. His call for raising taxes to facilitate his tentpole policies, like Medicare-For-All, Free College, and the Green New Deal, make the professional class uneasy. For those wishing for moderate reform and not a revolution, they flock to Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren after all of the Joe Biden alternatives faded off into obscurity.

We are beyond the stage of the race where we can say “It’s early.” It is no longer early. Though not a single state has voted you can assume the three names that’ll cling to relevancy until the Democrats convene in Milwaukee in July of 2020 is Biden, Sanders, and Warren. Thought to be hopefuls like California senator Kamala Harris saw her campaign disintegrated after Hawaii’s representative Tulsi Gabbard shined a bright light on Harris’ dark history as attorney general.

"I'm concerned about this record of senator Harris. She put over 1,500 people in jail for marijuana violations and laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked marijuana," Gabbard said at the debate.

She continues, "She blocked evidence that would have freed an innocent man from death row. She kept people in prison beyond their sentences to use them as cheap labor for the state of California, and she fought to keep cash bail system in place that impacts poor people in the worst kind of way."

The attack came out of nowhere. Neither candidate appeared to have any crossover with one another. Gabbard supporters are few, mostly online. Harris’ base is made up of rich, white liberals left over from the previous election when they unilaterally supported Hillary Clinton. In the previous debate Harris appeared to have launched herself into the top tier of candidates after boldly going after Vice President Biden for his opposition to school integration via bussing. Now most of Harris supporters are in the pocket of Warren. Meanwhile, Gabbard’s campaign failed to qualify for the third debate and looks ready to saunter off and exit stage left. Gabbard is an interesting character, one with many flaws and also great convictions. It is unclear whether the future for her is bright, dark or merely dim like most failed presidential candidates.

Sanders recently enjoyed a quiet post debate bump in the polls currently he is tied for first with Biden in the crucial primary state of California (voting March 3rd) at 26 percent apiece — senator Harris sitting pathetically fourth with 6 percent. While Biden stumbles and speaks incoherently just about everything, Warren dithers on the core tenants of the progressive movement, Sanders stands strong as the flag bearer of the elixirs that might cure this decaying body of an empire we call the United States.

Of course, we’d be naive to believe Sanders merely winning the plurality of the pledged delegates warrants his nomination. If neither candidate crosses the 1,885 delegates voting goes to a second round where a plethora of unpledged delegates, dubbed “Superdelegets” get to play a key, if not the biggest role in naming a nominee. If Sanders manages to wrangle the nomination from the cold, near-dead hands of Neolibalism virtually nobody would want to be anywhere near his campaign either out of not agreeing on political ideology or the common consensus of the party insiders that his campaign his doomed for historic failure. The ghost of George McGovern still looms large inside the psyche of many Democrats while the losers who posed themselves as moderates (Carter, Dukakis, Mondale, Gore, Kerry, H. Clinton) rarely get mentioned.

Usually, a running mate is chosen as a political strategy. Sometimes the candidate is from a swing state. Tim Kaine was from Virginia and didn’t bring much to the table other than he could potentially deliver the state to Clinton. But seeing as political realignment is a certainty in a Sanders vs Trump general election, it’s safe to assume Bernie, given his advanced age, will pick someone who is ready to succeed his movement if tragedy were to befall him.

The question is who? Most Democrats are conservatives on many issues, and shamefully act as Warhawks when they believe it to be politically expedite. Youngsters like Beto O’Rourke and Pete Buttigieg are diametrically opposed to Sanders’ in ideology. So is Harris.

Many believe Sanders’ running mate is likely to be Warren. The 2nd most progressive member of the United States Senate. The problem using this label as a benchmark is it’s pretty low. Warren is a fine, upstanding senator of a state susceptible to turning red when a seat is open. Scott Brown upset Martha Coakley for the vacant Ted Kennedy senate seat in 2010. Governor Charlie Baker trounced challenger Jay Gonzalez in his re-election bid. Right now right-wing Democrat Joe Kennedy owns up to $1.75 million worth of stock in oil and gas companies like ExxonMobil and Chevron is challenging one of the Green New Deal’s strongest advocates in junior senator Ed Markey. Massachusetts is a relatively liberal state, but unknowingly flirts with neoliberalism daily. Warren needs to remain in the Senate not just to preserve the seat, but as a vote for Sanders’ agenda.

Warren is also problematic for her poor political instincts, her DNA fiasco and pledge to take corporate donor money once the primary is over.

Going down the list though you are hard pressed to find better alternatives.

Jim McGovern, 59 (MA-02, Worcester)

Rashida Tlaib,43 (MI-13, Detroit)

Tulsi Gabbard, 38 (HI-02, Honolulu)

Elizabeth Warren, 70 (MA senator)

Mike Capuano, 67 (MA-7, former)

Ed Markey, 73 (MA - State Senator)

Russ Feingold, 66 (WI - Senate)

Ben Jealous, 46 (Gub. Candidate Maryland)

Jamie Raskin, 56 (MD -8 rep.)

None of these names fuel the lust young people have for the complete upheaval of America’s capitalistic society. But the Democrats of the New Deal generation are either in their seventies or too young to run for President. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York is the only self-identifying socialist politician and she legally cannot run until 2028. If elected to serve two terms Sanders would only preside the Oval Office until 2025 leaving a gigantic window of opportunity for neoliberalism to shuffle back into the Democratic Party and retake it.

It is truly a fascinating quandary what the second era of “BernieCrats” would look like, if the first one is legitimized in Sanders ascension to the presidency. Perhaps Gabbard will have molded herself into the complete progressive package people want to see in a potential successor. As of now, Gabbard stands as one of the most dovish voices in a political system overwrought with bloodthirsty ghouls. That’s not to see she is always against military intervention. Gabbard’s language specifically states she is against “regime change war” not total American conquest to facilitate the empire. Her ties to the right-wing leader of India Narendra Modi, while a member of the Gujarat Legislative Assembly he is thought to be complicit in the killing of nearly 2,000 people (790 Muslims) in the 2002 Gujarat riots. Gabbard’s remained silent on the issue and appears to have tied herself to Modi.

Other issues is her unwillingness to come out in favor of abolishing private insurance. In her defense, every candidate (including Warren) quiver at the idea of cutting the Goliath that is the healthcare industry down to size.

Massachusetts Representative Jim McGovern is a lot like Gabbard without the baggage. McGovern is also better on the issue of immigration. Gabbard says we need to have stricter border laws. McGovern voted against various legislative efforts to restrict immigration. A vocal critic of the Iraq War, McGovern was one of the few dissenting votes, and pushed then-president Obama to provide a draw-down plan in Afghanistan.

The issue with Gabbard is it is potentially too soon to anoint her the successor to Sanders’ movement. If fortunate to serve eight-years The reign of Sanders could reshape the image of how conservative Democrats present themselves to survive in the new political climate. Harry S. Truman was a conservative southern Democrats known for union-busting before the reign of Franklin Roosevelt forced him to pivot to a moderate New Dealer to secure re-election. Perhaps after some time has passed Gabbard will join AOC as a fellow crusader for the Green New Deal, legislation Gabbard hasn’t said she supports. On the other hand, Gabbard did propose the “Off Fossil Fuels Act” and stood with Water Protectors at Standing Rock. There’s an activist inside her at war with her inner conservatism.

Noticeable omissions are Massachusetts representative Ayanna Presley, and president of Our Revolution Nina Turner. Pressley, once a Clintonite who dismissed Sanders’ ambitious plans as unrealistic found herself in a primary with entrenched progressive incumbent Mike Capuano winning solely on the fact she was a fresh face in a time when people believed leadership was getting too stagnant. But Pressley is no friend to fellow Justice Democrat Ilhan Omar. Pressley cast her vote in favor of Resolution 246, which condemns the Palestinian call for global solidarity in the form of boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS).

Turner is a fire breathing progressive, a wonderful surrogate for Sanders and spokeswoman for his movement. Truly a fantastic organizer I don’t know if Sanders is smart to “promote” Turner to V.P when having her remain leader of Our Revolution or appointing her as his Chief of Staff would more than suffice.

Representative Rashida Tlaib is an under the radar candidate sure to galvanize an already energized base. Talib is an advocate for Medicare-For-All, the minimum wage to be raised to $18 to $20 an hour, and is for the complete abolishment of the Immigration Customs Enforcement agency. She is relatively young and inexperienced. I don’t know how’d she fare on the national stage.

Former president of the NAACP and previous Maryland Gubernatorial candidate Ben Jealous is widely known amongst progressive circles online and is highly regarded. As an organizer Jealous helped register over 370,000 voters to the polls for the 2012 presidential election.

In his bid for the governorship many labor and progressive groups issued early endorsements of Jealous, including the American Postal Workers Union (APWU-Maryland), Communications Workers of America (CWA), National Nurses United, the Maryland State Education Association, the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), UNITE-HERE, Democracy for America, Friends of the Earth Action, the Maryland Working Families Party, Our Revolution and Progressive Maryland.

Jealous won his party’s nomination running on a platform that included free college tuition, legalized marijuana, universal health care, and a $15 minimum wage. A small caveat is Jealous shrunk when an analyst for Circa News described him as a democratic socialist, referring to himself as a “venture capitalist.” Many progressives are hung up on Warren describing herself as a “capitalist to her bones” is the initial source for many Berners reluctance to switch their support.

The drawback to picking Jealous is he potentially can win the governorship in 2022. Jealous came in a respectable second to popular incumbent Larry Hogan 55 to 43 percent. Hogan is ineligible to run for a third term leaving Jealous in prime position to win the next time. Progressives will need to infect the legislative body with as many antibodies possible to pass a progressive agenda. If the political landscape looks different in 2024 or 2028 then progressives can afford to pluck repression liable to Republicans or Neoliberals.

If Markey is defeated by Kennedy in his primary then Sanders might as well call the 73-year-old and see if he isn’t ready to retire. Markey is more progressive than Warren. Markey is the biggest cheerleader besides Sanders for AOC’s Green New Deal. He is possibly the best candidate to assume the role of president of Sanders is unable to complete his term for whatever reason.

Plus, you wouldn’t have to worry about losing a progressive vote with Markey as it is sadly likely Kennedy will unseat him. Kennedy is outspending him under the table and leads already by double-digits. Massachusetts Neoliberals are very good at their jobs: stopping progressives.

Blu-ray Review: To Hell and Back: The Kane Hodder Story

Although largely unknown to mainstream audiences, Kane Hodder is instantly recognizable to horror buffs as the only person to play Jason Voorhees more than once; donning the hockey mask in Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood, Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan, Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday, and Jason X. He also performed the motion capture for Jason in the recent Friday the 13th: The Game.

Hodder has over 100 acting credits on his resume, the majority of which are in the horror genre. Along with Friday the 13th, he has played ruthless killers in the Hatchet franchise, Ed Gein: The Butcher of Plainfield, B.T.K., and Death House, among others, helping him to earn the unique distinction of killing more people on screen than anyone in the history of cinema. He's also an accomplished stunt performer and coordinator.

In between his numerous acting and stunt gigs, Hodder is a regular on the convention circuit, where a seemingly never-ending line of fans gleefully wait to be choked for a photo op. His commitment to the genre is well-established and his stature as a horror icon is indisputable, but the new documentary about his life, To Hell and Back: The Kane Hodder Story, shows that there is much more to the man behind the mask.

Interview subjects include actors Robert Englund (A Nightmare on Elm Street), Cassandra Peterson (Elvira), Bruce Campbell (The Evil Dead), Sid Haig (The Devil’s Rejects), Bill Moseley (The Devil’s Rejects), Danielle Harris (Halloween), Felissa Rose (Sleepaway Camp), Zach Galligan (Gremlins), Ted White (Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter), and Jack Coleman (Heroes); filmmakers Adam Green (Hatchet), Sean S. Cunningham (Friday the 13th), John Carl Buechler (Friday the 13th Part VII), and Harrison Smith (Death House); and Hodder's wife, children, friends, and fans.

Hodder is candid about both the positive and negative events in is life. Most notably, he goes in-depth about the burn injury he sustained during a stunt gone wrong that nearly claimed his career - and his life - before it really began. For the first time on camera, he tells the harrowing story of the incident and the difficult road to recovery - during which doctors were unsure if he would live - that followed.

The stunt performer-turned-actor gets unexpectedly, yet entirely understandably, emotional when recounting his journey; it’s virtually impossible for the viewer not to get choked up as well. As part of the film, Hodder returns to the burn unit where he was cared for and, for the first time in 39 years, speaks with the doctor who saved his life. He also opens up about being bullied as a child and his battles with depression, both when he was younger and in the aftermath of the burn.

Although his seminal work in the Friday the 13th franchise is touched upon, it is not a focal point. Hodder's stories about this movies can already be found in the comprehensive Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday the 13th documentary, so To Hell and Back largely pares it down to focus on his earning and playing covered role of Jason for the first time in Friday the 13th Part VII and the disappointment of being recast for Freddy vs Jason. Hodder also discusses other landmarks in his life, including pinpointing the moments he fell in love with cinema and with stunts.

To Hell and Back: The Kane Hodder Story is available as a limited edition Blu-ray/DVD combo pack via Dread Central Presents. Slasher enthusiasts who want to hear more insight about the actor's iconic roles in the Friday the 13th and Hatchet franchises will be pleased to find over 90 minutes of deleted/extended segments, much of which focuses on Hodder's films. Trailers round out the extras.

Offering far more insight than a mere fan-produced retrospective documentary, To Hell and Back: The Kane Hodder Story showcases a unique and ultimately uplifting human tale. Horror fans whose interest is piqued by the subject matter will be rewarded by seeing the genre icon share his story of finding success, but anyone can empathize with Hodder’s struggle to overcome adversity.

To Hell and Back: The Kane Hodder Story is available now on Blu-ray/DVD via Dread Central Presents.
