At 18, Jack Morris was convicted of murdering a man in South Los Angeles and sent to prison for life. It was 1979, and America was entering the era of mass incarceration, with tough sentencing laws ballooning the criminal justice system. As California's prison population surged, so did prison violence. “You learn that in order to survive, you yourself then have to become predatorial,” Morris says. “And then, you then expose somebody else to that, and it's a vicious cycle.” When California started aggressively targeting prison gangs, Morris was accused of associating with one of the groups. The punishment was severe: He was sent to a special supermax unit at the state's highest-security prison, Pelican Bay. The facility was designed to isolate men deemed the “worst of the worst.” Like Morris, most lived in near-total isolation. No phone calls, no meaningful physical contact with another human, no educational classes, no glimpses of the outside world. The only regular time out of a cell was for a shower and solo exercise in another concrete room. Decades later, prisoners at Pelican Bay, including Morris, started a dialogue through coded messages and other covert communication. They decided to protest long-term solitary confinement by organizing a hunger strike. It would become the largest in US history and helped push California to implement reforms. This week on Reveal, we team up with the PBS film The Strike to tell the inside story of a group of men who overcame bitter divisions and harsh conditions to buildan improbable prison resistance movement.This episode originally aired in March 2025.

Coming October 15!!!The Work Of The Mormon ButcherEpisode 451 begins in the summer of 1902, when a woman's mutilated body is pulled from the Morris Canal, and the trail leads to a blood-soaked missionary's flat in Manhattan. The suspect: William Hooper Young, grandson of Mormon patriarch Brigham Young, whose notebook bore the chilling phrase “Blood Atonement.” This is a rich episode about the strange descent of a scholar turned tramp, and the murder that made headlines thunder with scandal, scripture, and slaughter.Available for advance ad-free listening now at The Safe House!Just a buck a week reserves your bunk at the Safe House and give you early access to all new episodes of True Crime Historian, plus full access to the dusty vault where you can listen to over 400 vintage episodes and whatever personal services you require.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-historian--2909311/support.Join us at The Safe House, where every resident gets the key and safe combination to the dusty old vault where they listen to the largest collection of True Crime Historian episodes available in the entire universe, all ad-free.

Este podcast está patrocinado por nuestros amigos de la revista CEROaCIEN que dedica… ¡Mas de 100 páginas al Mini! Que nos han servido para desmontar muchos mitos… y es que CEROaCIEN se ha convertido, para mí, en la fuente más fidedigna. ¡Solo se vende online! No la busques en el quiosco porque no la vas a encontrar. Te recuerdo que si eres garajista tienes condiciones especiales y francamente, si no estás suscrito, no sé a qué esperas… Porque… ¿Crees que el Mini se diseñó en una servilleta? ¿Qué no hubo una versión 4x4 o un dos volúmenes? ¿Crees que fue un éxito instantáneo, que era un coche para chicas o que nació con vocación deportiva? Hoy vamos a destrozar estos y muchos más mitos sobre el Mini. Vas a conocer la verdadera historia del Mini porque… ¡Esto es Garaje Hermético! Mentira 1: "El diseño del Mini nació en una servilleta". Confieso que creía en esta leyenda: Que Sir Alec Issigonis tuvo un destello de genialidad y esbozó el Mini en una servilleta. Es una imagen poética, pero falsa. Mentira 2: "El Mini fue un éxito de ventas instantáneo". Siempre que se habla de este modelo se da por supuesto que el público se enamoró del Mini desde el primer día, pero la realidad es muy diferente, pues su despegue comercial fue muy lento. Mentira 3: "El Mini nació con espíritu deportivo". El nombre Mini Cooper es sinónimo de competición, pero el coche no nació con esa vocación. Es más, su creador, Alec Issigonis, despreciaba las carreras. Mentira 4: "Todos los Minis clásicos son prácticamente iguales". Su silueta apenas cambió en 40 años, pero el Mini vivió una evolución constante. Se vendió bajo distintas marcas como Austin, Morris, Riley, Wolseley; tuvo diferentes carrocerías como el familiar Traveller, la furgoneta Van, con maletero separado y el playero Moke; y una gran variedad de motores, desde 848 cm3 hasta 1275 cm3. Mentira 5: "El Mini es un coche muy inseguro por su tamaño". Juzgar al Mini con los estándares actuales es injusto. Comparado con sus contemporáneos de los años 60, no era inseguro. Su mayor baza era la seguridad activa: su agilidad, dirección directa y frenada le permitían evitar accidentes con facilidad. Mentira 6: "BMC perdía dinero con cada Mini que vendía". Una leyenda muy extendida basada en que el margen de beneficio en los modelos básicos era ridículamente bajo, casi inexistente, debido a un error de cálculo inicial en los costes de producción. Mentira 7: "El Mini fue un coche pensado para mujeres". Su asociación con iconos de la moda como Mary Quant, creadora de la minifalda, le dio una imagen femenina, pero el Mini fue concebido como un coche universal para toda la familia. Mentira 8: "Siempre se llamó Mini". Pues no. El coche no nació como una marca llamada "Mini". En 1959, para satisfacer a las distintas redes de concesionarios de BMC, se lanzó bajo dos nombres: Austin Seven y Morris Mini-Minor. Mentira 9: "El primer Mini matriculado fue el 621 AOK". La matrícula 621 AOK es icónica, pero no pertenece al primer Mini fabricado. Este coche fue, en realidad, el primer Mini presentado a la prensa y utilizado para las fotos oficiales del lanzamiento. Por su gran exposición mediática, se quedó en la memoria colectiva como el número uno.. Mentira 10: "Gustó a todo el mundo desde el primer momento". Lejos de ser un amor a primera vista universal, la recepción inicial del Mini fue muy polarizada. Muchos periodistas y compradores potenciales lo encontraron demasiado extraño, ruidoso y espartano. Mentira 11: "El Traveller tenía una carrocería de madera". Las versiones familiares, conocidas como Traveller o Countryman, son famosas por su entramado de madera trasero. Esto ha llevado a pensar que su carrocería era de madera, incluso lo he visto escrito por compañeros… pero no es cierto. Mentira 12: "No hubo un Mini de tres volúmenes". Bueno, esto en realidad es cierto, porque no hubo uno… hubo dos. BMC lanzó en 1961 el Riley Elf y Wolseley Hornet ambos con la base del Mini, pero con un prominente maletero y un frontal con la parrilla distintiva de cada marca, creando una elegante silueta de sedán en miniatura. Mentira 12+1: "Nunca hubo un Mini 4x4". Aunque nunca se vendió al público, la idea de un Mini con tracción total existió y se desarrolló en prototipos fascinantes. El más famoso fue el "Twini", un Moke experimental con ¡dos motores!, uno delante y otro detrás, creando un 4x4 de altísimas prestaciones…
At the edge of Utah and Colorado, where canyons plunge and rivers carve through stone, lies Dinosaur National Monument — a place known today for Jurassic fossils and wild rivers. But hidden within its history is the story of a woman who lived on the frontier with grit, resilience, and ties to some of the West's most notorious outlaws. This episode of Parkography explores the life of Josie Bassett Morris — rancher, homesteader, friend (and sometimes lover) of Butch Cassidy's Wild Bunch — who carved out a life of independence in one of the harshest landscapes of the American West. From her outlaw entanglements in Brown's Park to her rugged cabin at Cub Creek, Josie's story is one of resilience, hardship, and defiance.

What have been your influences for your work?Let's break down each, one by one: Hypnotherapy: What is this? Why would a person do this? What kind of benefits do you see?What's a session like? How often are sessions recommended? What are the cadence options? (like weekly x 6 wks vs once/ month, etc). How is this different from regular therapy and how would you recommend to juxtapose it with ongoing traditional therapy? Will you make a person sqwack like a chicken? Just kidding. What I meant to say is, is everybody hypnotizable?How does this work telehealth, like over the internet? Can anybody in the US/ abroad access your services? What are the costs & how do people access you? Conscious Conception: omg- the two things that would change the world we know from public health would be to increase equity & invest in the first 1000 days of life. Tell us about your program. Why is it so important to conceive consciously? Does the man really play any role in the health of the pregnancy/ infant? What if you are already well into your pregnancy & learn about your services? How early should somebody seek out your services? What are the costs & how do people access you?Breathwork: why does breath work matter? What is it doing physiologically inside of us? Why are there so many different kinds of breath work? What kind(s) have you been trained in? What kind(s) do you teach? How do you recommend people use breathwork in their pantheon of interventions/ practices? Daily/ periodic/ seasonal/ etc? Are there specific conditions or situations for which you recommend the breathwork that you teach? How come sometimes people report getting more anxious when they do breath work? What do you recommend to help them? What are the costs & how do people access you?

A magnificent cultural biography, Positive Obsession: The Life and Times of Octavia E. Butler (Amistad, 2025) charts the life of one of our greatest writers, situating her alongside the key historical and social moments that shaped her work. As the first Black woman to consistently write and publish in the field of science fiction, Octavia Butler was a trailblazer. With her deft pen, she created stories speculating the devolution of the American empire, using it as an apt metaphor for the best and worst of humanity—our innovation and ingenuity, our naked greed and ambition, our propensity for violence and hierarchy. Her fiction charts the rise and fall of the American project—the nation's transformation from a provincial backwater to a capitalist juggernaut—made possible by chattel slavery—to a bloated imperialist superpower on the verge of implosion. In this outstanding work, Susana M. Morris places Butler's story firmly within the cultural, social, and historical context that shaped her life: the Civil Rights Movement, Black Power, women's liberation, queer rights, Reaganomics. Morris reveals how these influences profoundly impacted Butler's personal and intellectual trajectory and shaped the ideas central to her writing. Her cautionary tales warn us about succumbing to fascism, gender-based violence, and climate chaos while offering alternate paradigms to religion, family, and understanding our relationships to ourselves. Butler envisioned futures with Black women at the center, raising our awareness of how those who are often dismissed have the knowledge to shift the landscape of our world. But her characters are no magical martyrs, they are tough, flawed, intelligent, and complicated, a reflection of Butler's stories. Morris explains what drove Butler: She wrote because she felt she must. “Who was I anyway? Why should anyone pay attention to what I had to say? Did I have anything to say? I was writing science fiction and fantasy, for God's sake. At that time nearly all professional science-fiction writers were white men. As much as I loved science fiction and fantasy, what was I doing? Well, whatever it was, I couldn't stop. Positive obsession is about not being able to stop just because you're afraid and full of doubts. Positive obsession is dangerous. It's about not being able to stop at all.” Susana M. Morris is the Associate Professor of Literature, Media & Communication at the Georgia Institute of Technology. You can find Susana at her website, at Instagram; on Threads; and on Substack.

With her deft pen, she created stories speculating the devolution of the American empire, using it as an apt metaphor for the best and worst of humanity—our innovation and ingenuity, our naked greed and ambition, our propensity for violence and hierarchy. Her fiction charts the rise and fall of the American project—the nation's transformation from a provincial backwater to a capitalist juggernaut—made possible by chattel slavery—to a bloated imperialist superpower on the verge of implosion. In this outstanding work, Susana M. Morris places Butler's story firmly within the cultural, social, and historical context that shaped her life: the Civil Rights Movement, Black Power, women's liberation, queer rights, Reaganomics. Morris reveals how these influences profoundly impacted Butler's personal and intellectual trajectory and shaped the ideas central to her writing. Her cautionary tales warn us about succumbing to fascism, gender-based violence, and climate chaos while offering alternate paradigms to religion, family, and understanding our relationships to ourselves. Butler envisioned futures with Black women at the center, raising our awareness of how those who are often dismissed have the knowledge to shift the landscape of our world. But her characters are no magical martyrs, they are tough, flawed, intelligent, and complicated, a reflection of Butler's stories. Morris explains what drove Butler: She wrote because she felt she must. “Who was I anyway? Why should anyone pay attention to what I had to say? Did I have anything to say? I was writing science fiction and fantasy, for God's sake. At that time nearly all professional science-fiction writers were white men. As much as I loved science fiction and fantasy, what was I doing? Well, whatever it was, I couldn't stop. Positive obsession is about not being able to stop just because you're afraid and full of doubts. Positive obsession is dangerous. It's about not being able to stop at all.” Susana M. Morris is the Associate Professor of Literature, Media & Communication at the Georgia Institute of Technology. You can find Susana at her website, at Instagram; on Threads; and on Substack.

The influence of organized crime extends everywhere…drugs, loan-sharking, protection rackets, shakedowns, gambling, prostitution, money laundering, waste disposal—and the music industry. It's not something we hear about so much anymore…but in the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s, it was very much a thing…and if you were operating in the music business during those decades, you would have come across Morris Levy. He liked to project the image of the savvy businessman, an entrepreneur running a successful record label who was also a philanthropist, raising money for charities like opera companies and children's hospitals. But sitting atop his pyramid of companies, Levy stole money from artists, shook down record retailers, laundered money, cheated record pressing plants, and threatened people who got in his way…his influence was far, far greater than the size of Roulette would indicate. If you wanted to stand up to Morris, you had to be careful…there was a .38 in his desk drawer and he had several associates on the payroll that carried baseball bats in case a meeting turned difficult…and if that didn't scare you, there were his silent backers in the mafia. With this backroom help, Morris was able to get his way with everyone from young emerging singers to—believe it or not—John Lennon. Levy ran his corner of the music business his way for decades—until he couldn't. This is part two of “Morris Levy: music's most mobbed-up man”. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this Labor Day episode, Brad highlights the history of the holiday in the U.S. and Canada before diving into a brand-new genetic evaluation for Holstein dairy cattle: milking speed. Released in August 2025, this trait provides an objective way to measure how quickly cows milk—expressed in pounds of milk per minute—with the Holstein breed average set at 7 lbs/min.Brad explains how this evaluation was developed using parlor sensor data (not robot milking systems) from over 165 herds and 43,000 cows, making it more accurate than traditional subjective scoring methods used in other breeds. With heritability at 42%, milking speed is a promising selection tool for improving parlor efficiency and labor use.The episode also covers:How milking speed correlates with traits like somatic cell score and mastitis.The range of variation in bulls and what that means for selection decisions.Why milking speed isn't yet included in the lifetime merit index.Practical implications for farmers considering faster vs. slower milking cows.Brad wraps up by reflecting on how this new tool could impact herd management at the Morris research herd and encourages producers to watch for milking speed in future bull proofs.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

The Communist Manifesto is one of the most influential and divisive works of political philosophy. Yet it almost seems quaint and harmless in a modern world of global Capitalist reach, and more rhetorical than scientific compared to the more systematic and explanatory Capital. Is Marx's theory of capitalist greed and social upheaval still relevant in a post Cold War world? Or is this a harmless historical phenomenon, relevant only in its time?Additional readings include: Bakunin's God and the State, Bernstein's Evolutionary Socialism, Sorel's Reflections on Violence, Chernyshevsky's What is to Be Done?, Dostoevsky's Notes from Underground, and Morris' News from Nowhere. And while I suspect I should be able to find a better mechanical representation of political revolution in video game history, I'm stuck instead with Red Faction: Guerrilla, which is a smarter game then it first seems, but is still pretty dang dumb.If you would rather check out Professor Kozlowski's other online projects than immediately rise up against your oppressors (all you have to lose are your chains!), check out his website: professorkozlowski.wordpress.com

We have to talk about the NCAA NOA Starts at 0:54 A great exercise in bad faith, and deeply insulting to Mike Sainristil. NCAA doesn't want to go to court because they'll lose, so they produced a blustery document to make it about money. Clearly Stalions should not have been part of any organization. If Jim Harbaugh is still the head coach when this comes out they would have had to fire him. But these are clearly minor violations hopped up as an extension of Harbaugh's reaction to telling them to go to hell for Burgergate, and part of a pattern of the NCAA coming after him personally. We're actually shocked at how bad all of their evidence is: 1) Stalions who's a liar. 2) Joey Velazquez, who recorded Stalions, tried to entrap Partridge, and Partridge proved was lying about their interaction, and for the Level II recruiting violations 3) a player who was broomed from the class whom the NCAA also admitted didn't have his stories straight. The only evidence they had of an atmosphere of noncompliance was an assistant (likely Stalions) saying screw Compliance. When they say the benefit was not marginal they don't even try to justify that take—Michigan got better without Stalions. The report makes its conclusion on the value of this entirely on the basis of the lengths that Stalions went to trying to get film when the guy goes to extreme lengths to pump up his own importance as a rule. Their defining piece of evidence is Harbaugh gave him a game ball, when they also say they found Harbaugh gave out 15 game balls per game to try to make sure everyone on staff got one, and Connor's value was so little that he a defensive ball from Iowa. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Defensive Line Starts at 16:16 Rayshaun Benny was grading out like Mason Graham—see: the end of the OSU and Alabama games. He is not Mason Graham, but should be able to keep up that sort of ratio because they are so deep they can keep him fresh at the end of games. Tre Williams is a Mazi Smith, M valued him more than Clemson did; he isn't a pass-rusher. Damon Payne is an innings-eater. Ike Iwunnah too. Trey Pierce and Enow Etta are the ones we want to see emerge because they have eligibility for next year. Pierce is on that track while Etta gained weight after getting pushed around last year, is ticketed for the Jenkins role. If a 7th DT plays we think it's Palepale, who looks huge and athletic. Edge has a floor of All-Big Ten and a ceiling of Derrick Moore turning into a Day 1 pick. He is that freakish combination of technique, length, and athleticism, got better at dropping into coverage last year, has a Mike Morris style of pass rush that should work. Last year he was getting to the quarterback but everyone else got there before him. TJ Guy is possibly the smartest guy on the field, had the most dip of last year, underrated strength, lots of versatility, though hit a ceiling when it came to carrying Flex TEs. Saved Michigan vs OSU. Cam Brandt is the established backup to D-Mo; we're a little iffy on him, but he might be on the Morris track. Backup to Guy is Nichols—clearly the program likes him but unproven. Would like to see Nate Marshall used in a pass rush only role this year. Would like to see Baxter and Edokpayi playing more this year too. 3. Linebacker Starts at 50:02 Everybody came back/is healthy after they prepared to lose everyone, so there's a lot of age and a lot of depth. Ernest Hausmann is the glue of the offense, another very underrated player who moves like a nickel and reads plays well. Had to get in better shape because when you're the button you can't be breathing hard between plays—you have to yelling. Barham is the Problem for offenses, because you can't block him with a RB and you have to block someone with the RB. Been caught "covering grass" as we say but has the ability to blow up. Can also spend time at edge if need be. Depth is incredible. Rolder is your Braiden McGregor-memorial back-from-injury senior who's going to play plenty and play well but start losing time to Cole Sullivan, the next Barham who's rocked up and earning a ton of practice hype after being under-ranked out of high school by 247 and ESPN (On3 moved him up to #112 so I couldn't make him the Sleeper of the Class). Also got Troy Bowles who's got a role as the Coverage LB. And Jaydon Hood has shown he can play. AND they really like the freshmen: Owusu-Boateng is a future Hausmann while Chase Taylor is a Class Sleeper. 4. Secondary Starts at 1:16:28 Replete with options, but each has a question mark. Is Rod Moore going to play? Maybe 2nd half of the season—was 85% at start of fall, has to backpedal, IG video shows him jogging. Assumed he's a nickel but TJ Metcalf is stepping in for him; Metcalfs (Metcalves?) can obviously play, precognition is Sainristilian. Brandyn Hillman is a hit stick, the person offensive players are most afraid of despite Barham on the team. Free safety is either Jaden Mangham, a glider whom offenses didn't throw at when at MSU (probably because you could throw at anyone else), or Mason Curtis, who is a very weird player. Curtis has an extra role as a Big Nickel, i.e. a hybrid OLB who comes in for Guy against 2TE sets to take away those Flex TEs. Might see something from a young guy but unlikely. Cornerback is the iffiest position on defense but has a super high ceiling with Jyaire and Zeke both with considerable runway. Hill just needs to not bite on double-moves. Berry got comfortable last year, still can clean up his zones and turn getting a hand on passes into interceptions. Depth starts with Jo'Ziah Edmond, a Ryan Walters special stolen from Walters. We think Shamari Earls looks like an immediately viable corner but is on more of a Jyaire development track (also ran track) as opposed to Will Johnson, who was super developed at this stage. Caleb Anderson did not impress us as much as the two #12s who preceded him. Jeremiah Lowe showed some things in spring; Seth thinks Jayden Sanders is going to play more than Lowe.
