Description:
The UAW achieved a breakthrough victory in organizing VW workers in Tennessee, winning 73% of the vote. It was the union's first win at a foreign automaker's plant in the South. The UAW targets Mercedes plants in Alabama, with an election starting May 13th. Mercedes is expected to mount a tougher anti-union campaign than VW did. Analysts say the UAW must quickly negotiate a good contract to maintain momentum. Other unions are looking to the UAW's success to help organize in the anti-union South. Biden praised the UAW and recent union wins for expanding the middle class, while southern governors warned unions would jeopardize jobs.

_the-blade-1995.webp "The Blade is a 1995 Hong Kong martial arts action film co-written, produced and directed by Tsui Hark (徐克), starring Vincent Chiu Man-cheuk (赵文卓), Moses Chan Ho (陳豪), Hung Yan-yan (熊欣欣), Song Lei (桑妮), Austin Wai Tin-chi (惠天賜), Chung Bik-ha (鍾碧霞) and Valerie Chow Kar-ling (周嘉玲). This film is notable for its unusual style, which includes dramatic close-ups, employment of colour gels, and frenetic camera use during the fight sequences.<br/><br/>An old master (Austin) runs the Sharp Manufacturer saber factory and he abdicates and appoints his close friend’s orphaned son, Ting On (Vincent), his least popular worker, as his successor. The master’s daughter, Siu Ling (Song), is interested in On and another worker, Iron Head (Moses).<br/><br/>One day while out delivering swords Ting On and Iron Head witness a monk (陳榮宗 Dickens Chan Wing-chung) fighting off a gang of thugs. The thugs later ambush and kill the monk in retaliation. Iron Head yells out the name of the factory, swearing revenge and taunting the thugs. Later that day, Ting On discovers that his father died while saving his master from Fei Lung (熊欣欣 Xiong Xin-xin), an infamous tattooed assassin who is rumored to be able to fly. On takes his father’s broken sword (the titular Dao), Intent on seeking revenge, and he goes off. When Siu Ling goes after him, she is assaulted by a local gang of bandits. Ting On manages to save her, but he loses his right arm in the process and ends up falling off a cliff.<br/><br/>Ting On is found and nursed back to health by Blackie (Chung), an orphaned farm girl. On takes up work in a diner, but feels himself worthless and it is not until their house is burned down that Blackie finds a part of a kung fu manual and gives it on Ting On. He studies the manual, find his late father's sword and develope a swordmanship technique that propels him to become a successful swordsman.<br/><br/>Note: This movie is a remake of 1967's One Armed-Swordsman (played by 王羽 Jimmy Wang Yu) and was not popular in Hong Kong, but it has a very exciting display of sword play and is worth watching.")
