The Norse exploration of North America, as recounted in The Saga of Erik the Red, offers a fascinating lens through which to re-examine early transatlantic contact, the construction of historical narratives, and the complexities of cross-cultural encounters. While Christopher Columbus’ 1492 voyage dominates mainstream discourse on the “discovery” of the Americas, the story of Leif Erikson and the short-lived Norse settlement at Vinland challenges Eurocentric timelines and invites critical reflection on how history is recorded, remembered, and mythologized.

In Grammar... change the form of (a word) to express a particular grammatical function or attribute, typically tense, mood, person, number, case, and gender.

2. vary the intonation or pitch of (the voice), especially to express mood or feeling.

def: * involving ignoble (not noble) actions and motives; arousing moral distaste and contempt * dirty or squalid.

These can be helpful for you, but there are also serious concerns. • Ai can change the authenticity of your writing, turning into a “voice” that is not your own. For example, Grammarly often changes my word choices so they don’t sound like something I’d actually say. That goes beyond just checking grammar. • It can definitely lead to plagiarism, basically creating something that is not from you. • The information is often incorrect or made up, for example citing resources that don’t actually exist.

This resonates with me, so I think after I use grammar correction, I still need to go back and check my writing to express my ideas in a way that suits my style and tone.

Dissociation of mind and body -- what does this mean?

Juxtaposed with the Commander's Wife, the artificial neatness. The fakeness. The inauthenticity

Symbol of fertility dwindling, and she feels that when she had been fertile, time went faster. Now, time is always threatening her, being menacing.

AND, she connects this to the motif of emptiness and fullness. Time passes nicely when she is full -- fertile.

And yet, these associations are true. But her sanity won't take it. It also connects to the separation of mind and body that happens. It becomes less a part of her.

(Some summary of ring & cylinder adjustments based on other notes)

A new platen in many cases will help to solve some of the proximal problem, but you'll still have heavy wear on your paper/ribbon and your new platen over time as a result. The first adjustments a pro typewriter repair person would make after installing a new platen would be to check the ring & cylinder, on feet, and motion which can all be subtly out of alignment with a new platen.

Pretty much every typewriter in modern era has adjustment points for this. All three of the machines you name definitely do. You'll find some of the basics and adjustment points for several machines described at https://typewriterdatabase.com/1945-AMES-OAMI-MechanicalTrainingMan.v1-ringcylinder.manual. If you look at the manuals for specific machines that Ted Munk has collected at the typewriterdatabase.com, you'll find how/where to make those adjustments. Several on Polt's website describe the adjustment as well: https://site.xavier.edu/polt/typewriters/tw-manuals.html#servicemanuals

Some sources may describe the adjustment as hammer and anvil as opposed to ring and cylinder.

// - SUMMARY - Richard J Murphy provides us with a big picture of Trump's objective in his calculated Tariff strategy - It's not that it makes no sense and is a strategy of a madman - On the contrary, he has a very calculated and maniacal strategy that will result in significantly increasing the wealth of the elites - By creating high tariffs, he will bring about a global economic crash - Like the 2008 and 2020 crash, central banks will print trillions of dollars of money and handout bailouts - It is the elites who will receive these bailouts and inflate the value of their assets - This will - substantially increase the wealth of the rich - substantially increase the precarity of the vast majority of people - increase global inequality - financial inequality and - carbon inequality - This increased precarity is bad news for the climate crisis as a precarious population have less flexibility in reducing their carbon footprint and are more dependent than ever on whatever remain job and resources they still have - Given we have this knowledge of the elite's hidden strategy, can we the people intervene in any way? - We need to have an understanding of how elites see the world - The entire worldview of externalizing investment as a game of accumulation must be understood deeply - in order to find leverage points for rapid system change

// - Summary - This is an insightful article on the esoteric practices of the Tibetan Buddhist Nyingma school of Dzogchen practice. - It provides a first-hand account from a Western practitioners perspective and written in a clear, easy to understand language that stresses the phenomenological aspects and uncluttered with too much specialized esoteric language, other than the Tibetan or Sanskrit names of the major practices. - For anyone seriously practicing b meditation, of any or even no spiritual tradition, It helps to provide useful and major insights and experimental landmarks of the meditative journey into exploring the relationship between form and emptiness - The description helps to locate one in what it might be like to return to the pre-linguistic world of the newborn, experiencing an undivided reality for the first time, as a gestalt that does not reify all the emerging phenomena into separate silo'd objects - These descriptions on - recognising form from an emptiness starting point and - recognizing emptiness from a form starting point - remind me off the Guru Rinpoche song of Khenpo Tsultruim Gyamtso Rinpoche: - https://ktgrinpoche.org/songs/guru-rinpoche-prayer - All these forms that appear to eyes that see All things on the outside and the inside The environment and its inhabitants Appear, but let them rest where no self’s found

- Perceiver and perceived, when purified

Are the body of the deity, clear emptiness To the guru, for whom desire frees itself To Orgyen Pema Jungnay, I supplicate

- All these sounds that appear for ears that hear

Taken as agreeable or not Let them rest in the realm of sound and emptiness Past all thought, beyond imagination Sounds are empty, unarisen and unceasing These are what make up the Victor’s teaching To the teachings of the Victor, sound and emptiness To Orgyen Pema Jungnay, I supplicate

- All these movements of mind towards its objects

These thoughts that make five poisons and afflictions Leave thinking mind to rest without contrivances Do not review the past nor guess the future If you let such movement rest in its own place It liberates into the dharmakaya To the guru, for whom awareness frees itself To Orgyen Pema Jungnay, I supplicate

-  Grant your blessing that purifies appearance

Of objects perceived as being outside Grant your blessing that liberates perceiving mind The mental operation seeming inside Grant your blessing that, between the two of these Clear light will come to recognize its own face In your compassion, sugatas of all three times Please bless me, that a mind like mine be freed

comment - Davidson does not provide much rich commentary on purpose, although it is quite an important idea to consider. - Intention is synonymous with purpose - The reason we consider the word intention instead is that we can compare to attention - intention - purpose or focus direction of future work (fourth pillar) - attention - focus awareness (first pillar) - Both of these acts are acts of constraining from the infinite field of our reality to a very narrow one - intention - among the infinite things I CAN do, I choose to do THIS specific one - attention - among all the infinite things I can sense, I choose to sense THIS specific one

However, - how we actually turn out as adults depends on what variables exist in our environment - If we have a compassionate mOTHER, our Most significant OTHER, she will teach us compassion - just like a child raised in a community of other language speakers in the environment will enable the child to cultivate the language capacity and - without a community of language speakers, a feral infant will grow up not understanding language at all - a healthy environment triggers beneficial epigenetic processes - Again, the chinese saying is salient: (hu)man on earth, good at birth.

explore claim - the transition from oral language traditions to writing led us to form the sense of interiority and of a "soul" separate from the body - This claim, if we can validate it, can have profound implications - Writing definitely led us to create much more complex words but we were able to do much more efficient timebinding - transmitting knowledge from one generation to the next. - We didn't have to depend on just a few elders to pass the knowledge on. With the invention of the printing press, written language got an exponential acceleration in intergenerational knowledge transmission. - This had a huge feedback effect on the oral language itself, increase the number of words and meanings exponentially. - There are complex recipes for everything and written words allow us to capture the complex recipes or instructions in ways that would overwhelm oral traditions.

He identifies agriculture as the first of three major cultural separation events that led to our modern form of alienation - The development of a human place had humble beginnings but today, these places are "human-made worlds" that are foreign to any other species. - The act of settling down in one fixed space gave us a place we can continually build upon, accrue and most importantly, begin and continue timebinding - After all, a library is a fixed place, it doesn't move. It would be very difficult to maintain were it always moving.
