Strike action, also called labor strike, labour strike, on strike, greve (of French: grève), or simply strike, is a work stoppage caused by the mass refusal of employees to work. A strike usually takes place in response to employee grievances. Strikes became common during the Industrial Revolution, when mass labour became important in factories and mines. In most countries, strike actions were quickly made illegal, as factory owners had far more power than workers. Most western countries partially legalized striking in the late 19th or early 20th centuries.
Strikes are sometimes used to pressure governments to change policies. Occasionally, strikes destabilize the rule of a particular political party or ruler; in such cases, strikes are often part of a broader social movement taking the form of a campaign of civil resistance. Notable examples are the 1980 Gdańsk Shipyard or 1981 Warning Strike, led by Lech Wałęsa. These strikes were significant in the long campaign of civil resistance for political change in Poland, and were an important mobilizing effort that contributed to the fall of the Iron Curtain and the end of communist party rule in eastern Europe.
The following is an episode list for the MTV animated television series Beavis and Butt-Head. The series has its roots in 1992 when Mike Judge created two animated shorts, "Frog Baseball" and "Peace, Love and Understanding", which were later aired on Liquid Television of the Mike Judge Collection DVDs (see related page for a detailed listing).
Both shorts originally aired as part of Liquid Television and did not include music videos.
Mike Judge himself is highly critical of the animation and quality of these episodes, in particular the first two – "Blood Drive"/"Give Blood" and "Door to Door" – which he described as "awful, I don't know why anybody liked it... I was burying my head in the sand."
Starting this season, the show switched to a 7-minute short act, with most of the shorts running approximately 5 minutes with one music video at the end.

Goes ( pronunciation ) is a municipality and a city in the southwestern Netherlands on Zuid-Beveland, in the province of Zeeland. The town of Goes has approximately 27,000 residents.
Goes was founded in the 10th century on the edge of a creek: de Korte Gos (the Short Gos). The village grew fast, and in the early 12th century it had a market square and a church devoted to Mary Magdalene. In 1405 Goes received city rights from William, Duke of Bavaria, by his right as count of Holland, and in 1417 it was allowed to build town walls. The prosperity of the city was based upon the cloth industry and the production of salt. In the 16th century Goes declined. Its connection to the sea silted up and in 1554 a large fire destroyed part of the city.
In Autumn 1572, during the course of the Eighty Years' War, Goes, in the Spanish Netherlands, was besieged by Dutch forces with the support of English troops. The siege was relieved in October 1572 by Spanish Tercios, who waded across the Scheldt to attack the besieging forces. In 1577 the Spanish soldiers who occupied Goes were driven out by Prince Maurits of Nassau. The prince built a defence wall around Goes, which is still partly standing. From the 17th century Goes did not play an important role, except as an agricultural centre. In 1868 a railway was constructed through it, but this did not lead to industrialisation. Agriculture remains the most important economic activity.
Goes is a genus of longhorn beetles, containing the following species:

Strike up the band as Ozarks Public Television celebrates the highlight-filled story and history of Missouri State University’s marching bands in our newest OPT-produced local documentary, The Beat Goes On-MSU’s Pride Marching Band. The Missouri State University band began in 1908, just two years after the founding of the university. From these humble beginnings, 16 members set a beat that has evolved over the decades into both national and international success and respect including NFL football halftime shows, multiple and featured appearances in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day, Tournament of Roses, and Orange Bowl Parades, and unforgettable Bear football halftime performances. Today’s show band features over 300 musicians, color guard and dance team performers, and many band alums continue ...

Submerged in the scourge
I gorge then I purge
My pride
Not discouraged when the wick’s flame died
‘Cuz my broken window pane
Let inside the winds of change
Now the dust
The dirt
Disgust
The hurt’s
Quickly brushed of the shirt
And blown throughout my home
And personal sanctuary
Then placed in the cemetery
Barely back from the wake of the buried
But the sight of vacant eyes will never scare me
My daily walks amongst the living dead have well prepared me
And rarely do I encounter a character who can counter my theories
Lately I live the life of a loner and let none near me
Clearly these people ponder a way to author their slaughter
Slit wrists
Colorless in bath water
Yeah the clock doesn’t stop a single tick
When the soul and its rotting flesh split
And the former slips away
While the later half basks in decay
The day starts as the sunrays embark
On their routine excursion illuminating the dark
And all the fiendish perversions in which we take part
Along with all the beauty and the bliss
On this slowly turning granite balanced on it’s slanted axis
Consider the magnificence of we’re given access
Desire and action
The key to unlock the unknown
Spaces on this atlas
And within these fleshy cages
Before our own collapses and succumbs
