NEWSFLASH raisethefist.com is running out of current allocated bandwidth. In just two days we have used over 130MB of data transfer. The limit is 512MB per month. That means we will run out of bandwidth in less than a week. If we do, the site will be shut down indefinitely. We need to move to another web host in order to keep the site up and updated with official information for its visitors. If you would like to donate space, the e-mail contact information is on the bottom of this page. Also, we might have found a COMPLETE backup of raisethefist.com online.

The founder was currently asleep, woken up by a relative who said fbi, police and undercover's were currently up and down all of the streets, with they're eyes focused on the premises. Raisethefist.com founder aproached the door were 2 FBI agents demanded that he step outside. Within seconds a swarm of FBI raided the house with automatic weapons and shot guns. Additional police and fbi also stayed on the front lawn, around the house with a door baracade and additional weapons. "armed and ready". FBI and secret service entered the house, seizing all servers and political liturature. Raisethefist.com was currently being ran within the founders room of the house, over a computer network. The room was literarly ransacked, and all equipment, disks, cd's .. etc. were boxed up, loaded into a truck and seized until further notice. Since 1999, raisethefist.com has been under extensive government monitering. At times, Raisethefist.com has recieved over 100 hits from the U.S Department of Defense in a single day. The FBI, police department, NSA (and who else) continuesly monitered the site on a daily basis. Even government's from the UK, Canada, Lavtia, Belgium, Egypt, Finland, and Australia monitered the site continuesly. The FBI had also previously intercepted all packets going through the DSL line hosting the site, and have seized additional accounts being used by the site. In yet another successfull attempt to silence our vioces, Raisethefist.com, an anarchist/activist independent media/collective has been shut down by the secret service. A note from the founder: "It's not yet known at this point if the site will be back up. As of now, we have nothing. No more servers, no more network, nothing. My room remains completly ransacked. My neighbors remain shaken up by what happend. I most likely won't be getting any of the equipment back. They also took alot of my political litature. Apparently, they're excuse for shutting it down was the 'militancy' portrayed on the site. This is not true. This was an excuse. This same 'militancy' they were concerned about is portrayed on at least a thousand other web sites across the internet, and they havn't been touched by the federal government, with the exception for remote monitering. Raisethefist.com was progresive. It was going somewhere. Kids started creating clubs in their schools called 'RaisetheFist'. People started utilizing the collective as a powerful resource for the activist/anarchist community. The federal government has been investigating me, and the site very closely, long before 9-11, and long before such militancy was even portrayed on the site. They knew the site had potential, that it was turning into something more than a site, but a strong collective utilized by activists throughout the world committed to social justice. And that's become a crime. Justice has become a crime. Freedom has become a crime. Anyone activly disagreeing with policies of the U.S is now automaticly rendered a "terrorist" in the eyes of national security.... Where raisethefist.com will go from here, I don't know. Based on what i've been told, i'll most likely be in jail, so most of my focus will be towards getting an attorney."

my world is expanding speaking of tears, go to Galapagos
in the late 90s there was a band "You And I" that was infamous for its crying fans. i was curious enough to check it out, and sure enough: the first couple of rows were tear soaked. the singer himself lay face down on the floor weeping for a full fifteen minutes after the set was over. finally (what looked like) his girlfriend put her arm around him, picked him up and helped him off the stage... emo.
Are there any contemporary precedents for new directions in music that overtly align themselves with new directions in Social resonsibilities? Perhaps eradicating a need for distinction by geographical location is a step in the right direction. As the global "leaders" align themselves as a united force (meeting in NYC this weekend...) content providers and aesthetics architects should align across boundaries (as we do here on this list, in this collective) to follow Cardew and Anthony Braxton and Yamatsuka EYE into the new matrix of a sound living.
I would add that moral force or fibre and relentless rigor is the only way out of the rut that everything is in. Without rigor there is no structure, no philosophy, coherence, direction, thrust, momentum and reason for being. This is what is missing from all young assed guitar groups, and "drum machine" addicts. They are literally immoral, directionless, without coherence and philosophy, and subsequently, their work is worthless, un-memorable and disposable. Its better for everyone to listen to Bille Piper, Britney, Boyzone and Backstreet Boys if we MUST listen to something that is disposable; at least that action has no illusion of coolness and importance attached to it. And by the way, SHIT transmitted from Mars is still smells bad. http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/entertainment/music/newsid_1790000/1790918.stm
Nope, its a matter of cosmic balance in the most recent one...too much talk about The Scorpions will put the universe out of balance and cause it to contract to a pre big bang size, destroying us, and everything we have built. Shit, my jetlighter is out of fuel!
Akin... is all of yr VU posting in response to that newish 3 CD set of the live performances with three versions of Sister Ray ~30 minutes long each? it is quite a collection of sounds... recorded by Robert Quine of Television on his handheld Sony tape recorder. i zone out to it often.
Mikkel: if yr serious about the Emo entrance, check out Cap'n Jazz. members later went on to do Promise Ring and Joan of Arc, but i think this stuff they did as teenagers is as honest as punk kids discovering new sounds out of their guitars and throats can get.

Did you know that Alfred Nobel, out of horror and regret that he was the man who unleashed Dynamite on the world created the Nobel Peace Prize to "balance the karma books"? Alfred Nobel (1833-1896) "Alfred Nobel mixed nitroglycerin and silica (SiO2) forming a paste that could be safely used as an explosive--he patented this material as dynamite (1867). Nobel also invented the blasting cap to provide a safe and dependable means for detonating. Nobel's original blasting cap consisted of 80% mercury fulminate [Hg(ONC)2] and 20% potassium chlorate. Blsting caps today are lead azide [Pb(N3)2] due to its greater stability when stored under hot conditions. A French newspaper--thinking Alfred and not his brother had died in 1886--ran his obituary under the headline, "The merchant of death is dead." Nobel, displeased that his inventions became an instrument of war, established the Nobel Prize in categories reflecting his interests (Chemistry, Physics, Medicine, Literature, Peace)." http://web.fccj.org/~ethall/explode/explode.htm

today's ny times: "Rich and Powerful Gathering at Elite Forum on Economy By SERGE SCHMEMANN Participants were gathering in New York City for the opening today of the World Economic Forum, an event that brings together the world's movers and shakers." -does this seem funny to anyone else?? btw: i'm pretty sure that "Jesus Fucking...

thanks. i will try and do that this weekend on my laptop and let you know. btw: why don't we all meet in the town of: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerypwllgwynchwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch i can't think of a more appropiate place. i'll buy you all a pint of leprican punch! arrggh, don't cha know!
(point taken on assumptions)
Go to: http://www.linux-mandrake.com/en/ftp.php3 and downloade the three iso images of Mandrake Linux 8.1. There are doens of mirrors world-wide. Installing Mandrake is really simple. I would recommend installing Mandrake on its own disc, using the ext3 filesystem. You may of course, install Linux in its own partition (dangerous if you dont know how to partition an HD) or install "Linux for Windoze" which installs Linux on your existing Fat32 partition as an application. Once you have your Mandrake installation running, you should immediately open a terminal and then type: $ lynx -source http://go-gnome.com/ | sh which will install Ximian Gnome on your system. Ximian is the best version of Gnome, and comes with the awesome Red Carpet package management system. Software in Linux is distributed in one of several formats. RPMs, for almost any distribution, DEBs for Debian Linux or as "tarballs" which are compressed archives. If you do not use Red Carpet, and you want to install a new piece of software that requires other pieces of software to be installed in you system before you can run your new programme, you will have to check "dependencies" yourself. Dependencies are libraries or files that have to be on your system before a particular piece of software can run. For example, if a movie player requires DivX to be installed on your system before you install it, using Kpackage or the Mandrake Package utility, you are prompted that there are unsatisfied dependencies that have to be met before you can install your new software. Using Red Carpet however, these required packages are fetched for you and installed for you automagically. Red Carpet rules hard. It even checks the cryptographic signatures of packages that you install for you, so that you can be sure that you are installing original, clean and complete software. Once you have installed Ximian Gnome, you will be left with an easy to maintain, rock solid system that will serve you very well. You will be surprised by how Linux feels and behaves; its clean smooth stable reliable and extremely powerful. Your next step will be to get a book on Unix, I recommend "Think Unix" by John Lasser. http://www.tux.org/~lasser/think-unix/ Its a superb piece of work.
"Assumption is the mother of all fuckups"
where can i find a easy to install mandrake dist?? i would be running it 24-7 if it weren't so damn hard to install and get it to recognise all my hardware. f win32. crash and burn constantly for sure...all the time it does. help me to dewindowize!! as long as your not listening to stryper! hell i like the scorpions.
I think it may have been posted before, but Last Plane To Jakarta is a site written by John Darnielle of the Mountain Goats (just a guy and his acoustic guitar proving that this lineup is still viable in the 21st century) about all sorts of music. He leans rather heavily on the rock side of things, but one reads LPTJ for the writing, not necessarily to be turned on to new forms of music. Regardless of what you think about Radiohead (I haven't yet been convinced), his exegesis on Amnesiac is some of the best music writing I've come across. http://lastplanetojakarta.com
Wine! Its so not finished that its not usable...oh dear so sad never mind. Now its on to Basilisk 2. Emulating an entire mac works briliantly under Dos, so should fare better. Installed Ximian Gnome over Mandrake; that worked perfectly:
$ lynx -source http://go-gnome.com/ | sh
is all it took to install the entire system, without a flaw or a hitch. Ximian own the linux usability race, no doubt about it.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?????
He obviously has two: http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1507973574
okay, lets see if i can make this simple. First you have mcsweeneys.net, the publishing site. BUT there was another url, mcsweeneys.com, linking to a lovely family's site, complete with vacation pix, pet photos et al. Everyone would surf to .com accidentally, and .net rec'd many complaints. Then, one day, .net publishes that they are in dire money straights. Their # of hits has increased, and their coder wants more $$. But thank goodness! The .com family will come to the rescue! They are now big fans of .net, and would hate to see it fall.
Over the span of about a month, .net publishes daily updated accounts about how the deal is going down: at first, the site would remain intact, and only $$ is forwarded. By the end of it, the deal is that .net will be merging with the .com site, and the family teenager will code the site, but not to worry! Content will remain the same. Then one day, bang! Gone is the white screen/black text/witty writing, up comes blue screen/white text, and accounts of little Joey's trip to the zoo, with the apologies that due to the young children now involved in the site, no more naughty publishing. People were freaking! The letters were amazing. The readers were either hip to the joke (ie. this is all a scam and is really hilarious) or they were pleading for the original site to come back, and how bad the new design was.
Brilliant, because I still don't know if there was ever a .com family. Further brilliance: the whole thing happened, and exists no more. There is no archive. Better than television, really.

does anyone remember the url stunt they pulled a few years back? brilliant.

McSweeney's is an excellent DIY publisher that has a great website with interesting writing. Also, check out the store if you are in brooklyn... and if not: check out the strange varieties of goods that get sold there. http://www.mcsweeneys.net http://www.mcsweeneys.net/links/store/
Today is the last day that we boot into Windoze as our work OS. Hopefully.... We are going to go Linux/Wine (codeweavers) for everything. This means many hours of uninterupted work, no more ritual rebooting, no more blue screens no more....WINDOZE! http://wine.codeweavers.com/

Preface for the First Issue Richard M. Stallman, Free Software Foundation Welcome to Free Software Magazine -- the first magazine dedicated to specifically to free software. Free software is a convenient and powerful way to use a computer, but it is more than that. Free software is the the basis for a community of freedom that you can join. With free software, you have freedom to change software when you wish, as you wish. You can ask a friend to change it for you, or hire a company to change it for you. With free software, you have the freedom to share with your neighbors, and your neighbors have the freedom to share with you. This community of freedom is the reason that we founded the Free Software Movement. Only free software respects your freedom; to live and work in a community of freedom and cooperation, we needed free software. So we wrote free software. In this and future issues of Free Software magazine, you will learn: * How to obtain free software and share it with your neighbor, both legally and practically. (If you use a typical proprietary software product, you could only share it illegally.) * How to change free software for yourself. (If you use a typical proprietary software product, you are prevented from changing it.) * How to find a company that you can hire to make changes for you. * How to write free software better, using the availble free software tools. * How to find other people who share your interests in using and changing free software. * Why a free and cooperative community generates software that becomes more reliable, efficient, and secure. * Which companies and laws threaten our community's freedom, and how you can help defend our community from these threats. * How free software can empower you. Today the free software community is large. Our movement has had substantial success, and we hope to have more. But success for free software does not mean "world domination", as boosters of the kernel, Linux, like to put it. Success for free software is world liberation! History We started with a free operating system, because you can't do anything with your computer without an operating system. We started developing the GNU system in 1984; in 1991, with the GNU system almost finished, the last missing crucial piece of the system was developed: the kernel, Linux. When GNU and Linux were combined to form the GNU/Linux system, it became possible, for the first time since the hobbyist microcomputers of the 70s, to use a computer and keep your freedom. But GNU/Linux is a Unix-like operating system--a system that a wizard could love, but ordinary users did not like. To carry freedom to non-wizards, we had to make GNU/Linux easy to use. We needed to provide a desktop with graphical interfaces. The need for this was evident long before. The first GNU project to develop a graphical desktop was started in 1990, but it did not take off. GNOME, started in 1997, did take off. GNOME also provoked the freeing of a crucial library needed by the KDE desktop, so that it too became fully free. So we are on the threshold of an age where a user-friendly free operating system can satisfy all kinds of computer users.

One of the simplest, strongest, and safest models is to enforce a rigid separation of data and code. The commingling of data and code is responsible for a great many security problems, and Microsoft has been the Internet's worst offender. Here's one example: Originally, e-mail was text only, and e-mail viruses were impossible. Microsoft changed that by having its mail clients automatically execute commands embedded in e-mail. This paved the way for e-mail viruses, like Melissa and LoveBug, that automatically spread to people in the victims' address books. Microsoft must reverse the security damage by removing this functionality from its e-mail clients, and from many other of its products. This rigid separation of data from code needs to be applied to all products. http://www.securityfocus.com/news/315

Drink me!
Which drink are you?
"Later I got a modem so I could browse the uni network from home. And that's when I became a cracker. Not a particularly good one, mind you; the sexless wimps who ran the network were impossibly inept." http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/23777.html
Testing....also, you cannot ping more than once every five minutes, otherwise, you get this rather "I am a sysadmin" esque message: "Thanks for the ping, however we can only accept one ping every five minutes. It's cool that you're updating so often, however, if I may be so bold as to offer some advice -- take a break, you'll enjoy life more." You are bold, and no, you may not be so.
OK people: Whenever you post to BLOGDIAL and you check your post, please click on "ping" on the right. I will fix it later so that it opens a tiny window that you can easily dismiss.

Back in the 1970's, there was a "man" called "Eddie Wolfram" who sold cassette recordings of live Rock concerts. His lists were legendary, containing literally thousands of recordings, that you could order by post. There is aparently only one entry on the entire internet that refers to someone who might be him: http://www.tangents.co.uk/tangents/main/2001/nov/vu.html "People like Eddie Wolfram in Manchester and the guy who became Kenny Wisdom in South London provided a great public service, and it meant an awful lot to me to be able to get hold of supplementary recordings by the likes of Subway Sect, Prefects, the Postcard groups, the Postcard groups, Fire Engines and so on. Even now, I have stuff that's not appeared officially. Like the early Jazzateers recordings just before Postcard folded. This was the incarnation of the Jazzateers that envisaged the Velvets performing Jim Webb songs in an after hours Manhattan bar, as part of some strict anti-rock movement. These then were the years before Peel Sessions (Subway Sect, Slits, Prefects etc) were officially released, before the Buzzcocks' Times Up legally came out, and so on. A hissy, muffled tape could count for a lot, and comparing notes later it is astonishing how cassettes were circulated. A chance conversation with James Dutton, the man behind Motion records, showed a tape of Vic Godard's infamous Northern Soul set at the Music Machine in 1980 which I got off Bobby and passed onto Vic many years later had reached James. A Jonathan Richman tape I got from Kenny Wisdom of the Modern Lovers live in the mid '70s was copied for Stephen Pastel or Aggi and in turn turned Everett True onto Jonathan Richman, and there are loads of stories like that. Even what we thought of as the 1978 Subway Sect demos later re-emerged on the 20 Odd Years compilation as tracks salvaged from the Gooseberry Studios sessions for the abandoned LP." This is interesting for two reasons. Firstly, its amazing that someone so influential to the music scene for many years has only one mention on the internet. That is astounding. The second reason is that there is a new piece of software that someone has released to share live recordings of bands http://rootnode.org/article.php?sid=65. Someone, somewhere, (or at least several dozen people combined) must have the entire Eddie Wolfram casette archive. It would be totally amazing if these recordings were ripped and then made available on rootnode.

stop selling me drugs!!
"The future seen here falls very much in the 1970s vision of the future as seen by the likes of 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), The Andromeda Strain (1971), THX 1138 (1971) and Zardoz (1974) that the future had either become or was becoming such a place of technological perfection that we were all in danger of being drowned in sterility. Here society has been made perfect (some nicely futuristic locations in Dallas) but in all of it there seems a sense of serene dissatisfaction. One of the film�s most potent images is a frighteningly decadent one where a group of bored partygoers detonate trees with a flaregun. Although ironically of all 1970s dystopian futures Rollerball�s is the closest to actually having come true with its visions of a corporate elite ruling the world and cathartic ultra-violent sports being used to placate the masses - if you have any doubt about this look at the popularity of the Superbowl and the WWF. (Although contrary to what the film here says, both of these obtain mass catharsis through the promotion of individuality rather than its suppression)."
morons (thanks km) re:#1 i support the FMP! artists can make money at their day jobs!!!!! do they need to be making millions and sleeping in till noon to be creative? get a job and shut up musicians(term used loosely)!!!! re:#2 if warner drops tori amos they are morons. which they already are. basically what is happening and going to happen is that the industry will realise they cannot create a market anymore without being too obvious. music is made by people in their studios not by '"breaking" an act'.

If you cant smell it, its not real. If you cant look into its eyes, you cant tell what its thinking. If you cant touch it, you cant pick up the vibe. "Love locally, admire globally". That's the safe bet. Anyway, Danish babes are perfectly acceptable.... ...Right??

Bought a new box of 12 leads for my PILOT Super Grip 0.5. Faber Castell Super-Polymer 2B; its a smooth write!
AOL to buy Red Hat; dont laugh, my Aunt Grace is 70, and she uses Mandrake 8, no probs. Gateway are in trouble aparently. Joe sixpack cant get wood for thier bland boxen. The solution is clear; get a world class deigner in house to revamp and vitalize the product range, and then customize one of the advanced Linux distributions, brand it, and ship every product with it without exception. They would then have something to offer the public, something to fire the imagination... and it might even be cheaper in the stores since they dont have to pay royalties for the OS.
I flashed my BIOS this morning. It worked. Finding the manufacturer of my motherboard, finding the exact motherboard model number... Award no longer exists, bought out by Phoenix... "Go to your manufacturer s homepage"... Selecting the precise ROM image... Prepare the floppies... Finger on the return... The Fear... Could destroy the motherboard... Could fry the BIOS EPROM... No way out. >>done.<<< Reboot... It's all there.
