* 1985 – Police storm MOVE headquarters in Philadelphia to end a stand-off, killing 11 MOVE members and destroying the homes of 250 city residents.

The police drop an explosive device into the headquarters, killing eleven MOVE members and destroying the homes of 61 city residents in the resulting fire.

MOVE was described by CNN as " a loose-knit, mostly black group whose members all adopted the surname Africa, advocated a " back-to-nature " lifestyle and preached against technology.

This raid resulted in the death of one police officer and the imprisonment of nine group members, now known as " The MOVE 9.

MOVE members staged bullhorn-amplified, profanity-laced demonstrations against institutions which they opposed morally, such as zoos ( MOVE had strong views on animal rights ), and speakers whose views they opposed.

Seven other police officers, five firefighters, three MOVE members, and three bystanders were injured in an unrelated crossfire.

As a result, nine MOVE members were found guilty of third-degree murder in the shooting death of a police officer.

MOVE has also called for the release of imprisoned MOVE members, whom the group considers political prisoners.

Nine MOVE members were convicted at trial and sentenced to prison.

The police dropped a satchel bomb on the house from a helicopter ; it set off a fire that killed eleven MOVE members, including five children, and destroyed sixty-two neighboring houses.

In most later family members, starting with the MC68010, the MOVE from SR instruction was made privileged, and a new MOVE from CCR instruction was provided to allow access to the condition code register only.

Glassey later implicated Africa and other MOVE members in various crimes, to include parole violation, contempt of court, illegal possession of firearms, and making terroristic threats.

Law enforcement obtained indictments on the implicated members of MOVE and attempted to arrest them, which led to an armed stand off by MOVE and subsequent raid by the Philadelphia Police Department.

The actual cause of death of the MOVE members involved is disputed as there were numerous flammable and explosive compounds in the building at the time of the raid.

The 1985 police confrontation and bombing of MOVE, a black commune, occurred during Rendell's tenure as District Attorney.

On August 8, 1978, an end was negotiated to an almost year-long standoff with police over orders to vacate the Powelton Village MOVE house.

MOVE representatives claim that he was facing the house at the time, which would therefore negate the notion that MOVE was responsible for his death.

Apocryphally the incidents referenced in the " Punk Testament " are not about punk rockers, but about the events surrounding the 1985 firebombing of the MOVE house in West Philadelphia.

In 1985, Dix organized the " Draw The Line " statement in response to the City of Philadelphia's bombing of the MOVE house in which 11 people, five of them children, were killed.

A new unprivileged " MOVE from CCR " instruction was provided for use in its place by user mode software ; an operating system could trap and emulate user-mode MOVE from SR instructions if desired.

In this process, the mnemonic, for LOAD, was replaced by various abbreviations of the words LOAD, STORE and MOVE, intermixed with other symbolic letters.

MOVE or the MOVE Organization is a Philadelphia-based black liberation group founded by John Africa.

MOVE was founded in 1972 as the " Christian Movement for Life " by John Africa, a charismatic leader who, though functionally illiterate, dictated a document describing his views known as The Guideline to graduate student Donald Glassey.

MOVE failed to relocate as required by a court order.

Both albums are scheduled for worldwide releases by ' MOVE ' and ' World Music ' by the end of August 2008. The guitar virtuoso's decision about " not wanting to participate in the ' video race ' that takes the listener's focus away from the music " ( as he put it in an interview with World Music ) led to the releases being solely on World Music CDs and the Internet, with not a single commercial video to accompany.

West Philadelphia drew national attention in 1978 and 1985 for violent clashes between police and an Afro-centric, back-to-nature group called MOVE.

Coincidentally, the groundbreaking ceremony for Liberty Place occurred within minutes of the catastrophic confrontation between the Philadelphia Police and MOVE in West Philadelphia.

MOVE continues to advocate for the release of jailed MOVE sympathizer and former resident of Philadelphia, Mumia Abu-Jamal, convicted of the 1981 murder of police officer Daniel Faulkner.

The 68EC000 chip and SCM68000 core expanded the address bus to 32 bits, removed the M6800 peripheral bus, and excluded the MOVE from SR instruction from user mode programs.

The 68000 did not meet the Popek and Goldberg virtualization requirements for full processor virtualization because it has a single unprivileged instruction " MOVE from SR ", which allowed user-mode software read-only access to a small amount of privileged state.

The Bus Error and Address Error exceptions pushed a large amount of internal state onto the supervisor stack in order to facilitate recovery, and the MOVE from SR instruction was made privileged.

While the 68000 had ' supervisor mode ', it did not meet the Popek and Goldberg virtualization requirements due to the single instruction ' MOVE from SR ' being unprivileged but sensitive.

* The MOVE instruction writes a 16-bit value into one of the chipset's hardware registers.

Because the 68000 offers an unprivileged MOVE from SR, it does not.

* The MOVE from CCR instruction was added to partially compensate for the removal of the user-mode MOVE from SR.

MOVE made compost piles of garbage and human waste in their yards which attracted rats and cockroaches ; they considered it morally wrong to kill the vermin with pest control.

MOVE attracted much hostility from their neighbors.
