      are conventions in online writing to compensate

      Show me someone who uses... too many... ellipses... and I'll point to someone with living memory of the Reagan administration. Have you ever noticed in social media how people of a certain mentality and generation............ will use way too many........ ellipses... to the point of looking downright foolish?

      Or emojis for that matter, it's like a malaphor, someone just completely misusing paralanguage.

      In China, for example, it is normal for couples to wait until regular jobs have been secured, as well as until appropriate housing becomes available

      Funny how when young people here in the West do this, it's all doom and gloom from the clientelist press, screeching and mewling about "birth rates collapsing" and "great replacement" and other dogwater nonsense.

      in the Internet age

      A lot of the sex tourism done by westerners in Asia has this overt connotation, and it's as obvious as it is degrading and culturally insensitive.

      It's also worth noting how a lot of culturally conservative men in the West tend to idealize "submissive asian women" as their ideal partner, precisely due to the stereotype associated with them.

      marginalized people, including women, see the world differently.

      This often makes it all the more absurd and frustrating when we see marginalized people endorse and absorb the culture of their oppressors. "Latinos for Trump" for instance, puzzle many who don't understand how those people operate.

      The professor sees the situation as an example of individual merit but according to the researcher, the Iranian student draws on the Persian tradition of shekasteh-nafsi, which "motivates the speakers to downplay their talents, skills, achievements, etc

      This in return is a small part of the overarching culture of "Taarof" (تعارف pronounced tah-roff): the complex, sometimes a bit silly but very rich in subtlety and implication art of Persian social etiquette and hospitality, emphasizing politeness, deference, and rank. It's a whole choreograpy of polite, (often insincere but not negatively) refusals and offers, such as refusing food or payment or gifts multiple times before accepting. Some Asian cultures have similar attitudes, but my Persian teachers told me of the wild stories of the lengths people went to insist on being the one to pay the bill at a restaurant or coffee house bordering the levels of a comedy film.

    "Home Charms": unpacking an Irish immigrant woman's home through speculative design.
    11
    1. Destiny_v 21 Feb 2026
      I brought the set of charms to my family’s farmhouse in Ontario at Christmas, when itwas finished. I gave it to my mother, who had been captivated by the miniature chair anddresser. Thus the only extant set of Home Charms returned to my family home, in fullcircle that felt intuitive, though it seems to contradict the purpose of the thing itself.

      I think this shows how Immigrant women hold a lot of values is things they might see as important to their culture, it not only shows they want to be close to their roots. It shows the ways they were able to cope with this grand step of moving into what they believed would be the best thing for themselves.

      Traveling in the mind, in small vestiges and scraps the non-human inhabitants of theIrish domestic space might find themselves transposed onto or synthesized with thematerials and spaces available in an American context. In my aligned (or rather,entangled) research on material culture and immigration I turned to the work of scholarssuch as Adam Drazin, whose fieldwork with Romanian immigrants in Ireland has shownhow material objects continue to play an important role in making (or choosing not tomake) migrant homes

      I think this illustrates one of the main concepts shows throughout the article, it proves how immigrants used materialized items to feel as though they were holding some part of their culture within them

    3. Destiny_v 21 Feb 2026
      I shortened thechain for no other reason than that it felt right. Later, I realized this shortened chainrecalls the smaller, easily concealed single decade rosaries used by Catholics in Irelandduring a time of religious persecution.13 How might this new consideration challengemy initial framing of jewelry and charms as visible and readable symbols of identity?

      I believe this helped show the rooted cultural remembrance of identity and how it never does truly leave an individual.

      Glassie describes the joy that the woman of the house takes in the estheticquality of her dresser, which is then reflected back on her and those who cross herthreshold: “the dresser’s beauty is a gift to the visitor” (364). However, the dresser isalso an active part of the household. Its rows of gleaming china, or “delph”, plates andornaments glimmer with associations to friends and family who have been marriedconfirmed, visited, been born or died, occasioning the gifting or passing on of the dresser’scontents. It’s possible that when Margaret thinks of her sister “sitting triumphant there inpossession of all the old bits of ornaments,” she is in fact imagining the contents of thefamily’s dresser (Brennan 19).

      Although it seems obvious, I wonder if Margaret is not only jealous of her sister but if her sister is also jealous of the new opportunities allowed to Margaret. In chapter 6 of our reading it talked about all the hardships of the women even that they had to work to afford their brothers tuition it makes me wonder if Margaret is doing the same for her family.

      Sian Supski uses interviewswith women who immigrated to Australia in the 40’s and 50’s to demonstrate how thekitchen became their “home” in a new country, actively designing and maintainingcontrol of the space. They used the kitchen and its tools to express agency and create aspace that to one woman felt like “another skin”

      This shows the main concept that women immigrating wanted to try and take control of at least one aspect of their life. As shows in out reading many women felt as though their house was not their "home"and made attempts to find an area in the house that was of comfort to them.

      omething to rememberor understand how it shape(s/d) our movement or experience. The Irish poet MacdaraWoods writes about the experience of seeing farm tools, familiar from his childhood, ina museum in France; the objects are so embedded in his “cosmology” of home that“[his] hands automatically closed on the phantom forms of them; [he] knew themaking of them, their function and purpose” (Richman Kenneally “‘I Am Off-whiteWalls’” 23)

      I think this shows a clear argument that immigrants did not choice on their own to go to the united states. This shows the bodily reaction Macdara had almost embodying what he had remembered from his time in Ireland.

    7. Destiny_v 21 Feb 2026
      The object causesthe body to move in a certain way, which then prompts the remembrance of taught infor-mation and spiritual posturing.

      Did many Irish women try to use this as a method to remember their cultural prayers and spiritual posturing?

      However, Stewart also links our fascination with the miniature to nostalgia, whichshe describes as an “inauthentic” longing for a past that never existed (Stewart 23). Thischaracterization of the miniature echoes the slippage between the role of romanticizedexile – often thrust upon immigrants regardless of circumstance – and the actuality of a(dreaded or dreamed of) departure from a very real space and way of life

      I would like to connect this to the idea that throughout our entire reading, we have consistently seen white men’s ability to overshadow and dismiss the immense displacement immigrants have experienced. From being labeled “savages” to being treated as “the other,” immigrants were constantly denied acceptance. At the same time, Englishmen often claimed ignorance as a way to justify immigrant suffrage and political participation.

    9. Destiny_v 21 Feb 2026
      Maeve Brennan herself had a complicated relation-ship with the notion of “home,” and recent work by scholars such as Angela Bourke, EllenMcWilliams, and Elke D’hoker has engaged with themes of exile and loss in her writing,with her persona as a “self-conscious transatlantic” (McWilliams 96), who immigrated toAmerica along with her family but was fiercely independent and spent passages of later lifehomeless.

      I remember in our reading for this week we had discussed briefly the conflict that Irish women had faced because of leaving home, One thing I wanted to connect too that is this part of the article. I think it is so powerful they had added that even when women when back to their home they were unable to feel "at home".

    10. Destiny_v 21 Feb 2026
      Margaret, seems less concerned with the physical objects of household furniture that shehas not been able to bring to America, and more concerned with what they signify, howthey manipulate and determine proper social behavior. Living in a house, but not “womanof the house,” Margaret is ashamed to receive her fiancé at the back, serviceman’s door ofher employer’s home when he arrives to pick her up for a date

      This is talked about briefly in our reading, women did not know when they were allowed to rest and be "free" but I didn't realize the importance of that. If maids and cooks were constantly being "watched" it seems as though they must constantly remain in a professional setting.

    11. Destiny_v 21 Feb 2026
      They had to adjust not only to a new culture, but to newconfigurations of domestic space and household “tools,” leaving behind the spaces andthings that had shaped their own education and experience in homemaking.

      During our reading of chapter 6 it talked about Italian men not allowing their wives to work when they had gotten married would that concept influence Irish couples as well. How would that work with the women being "Domestic" maids and cooks.

    10.4: Physical Delivery
    1
    1. Gavingdag 21 Feb 2026
      We tend to look at a person’s face when we are listening to them. Again, this often makes people feel uncomfortable and contributes to their overall speaking anxiety. Many speakers don’t like the feeling of having “all eyes” on them, even though having a room full of people avoiding making eye contact with you would be much more awkward. Remember, it’s a good thing for audience members to look at you, because it means they’re paying attention and interested. Audiences look toward the face of the speaker for cues about the tone and content of the speech.

      This reading emphasizes the importance of facial expressions in public speaking and how they help communicate emotion, enthusiasm, and credibility. I found it interesting that many speakers unintentionally adopt a “deadpan” expression when presenting, even if they are passionate about their topic. Facial expressions set the emotional tone of a speech, and when they don’t match the content, audiences may become confused or question the speaker’s sincerity. The suggestion to record and evaluate oneself highlights the connection between self-awareness and improving delivery skills.

    10.2: Delivery Methods and Practice Sessions
    2
    1. Gavingdag 21 Feb 2026
      When memorizing, most people use rote memorization techniques, which entail reading and then reciting something over and over until it is committed to memory. One major downfall of this technique is its effect on speaking rate. When we memorize this way, we end up going over the early parts of a speech many more times than the later parts. As you memorize one sentence, you add on another, and so on. By the time you’re adding on later parts of your speech, you are likely speed talking through the earlier parts because you know them by heart at that point. As we’ll discuss more later, to prevent bad habits from practice from hurting our speech delivery, speakers should practice a speech the exact way they want to deliver it to their audience. Fast-paced speaking during practice will likely make its way into the actual delivery of the speech. Delivery also suffers when speaking from memory if the speaker sounds like he or she is reciting the speech. Rote memorization tasks that many of us had to do in school have left their mark on our memorized delivery. Being made to recite the pledge of allegiance, the preamble to the Constitution, and so on didn’t enhance our speaking abilities. I’ve observed many students whose speeches remind me of the sound of school children flatly going through the motions of reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. It’s the “going through the motions” impression that speakers should want to avoid.

      The discussion of memorized delivery highlights how relying too heavily on memory can negatively affect delivery, especially when speakers use rote memorization. This method can lead to unnatural pacing, monotone delivery, and increased anxiety if the speaker forgets a section. The reading emphasizes that effective delivery is not just about remembering words but about engaging the audience through vocal variety, eye contact, and adaptability. Overall, the section reinforces the idea that choosing the appropriate delivery method is a strategic decision based on context, audience, and purpose.

    2. Gavingdag 21 Feb 2026
      In what situations would impromptu speaking be used? Since we’ve already started thinking of the similarities between public speaking and conversations, we can clearly see that most of our day-to-day interactions involve impromptu speaking. When your roommate asks you what your plans for the weekend are, you don’t pull a few note cards out of your back pocket to prompt your response. This type of conversational impromptu speaking isn’t anxiety inducing because we’re talking about our lives, experiences, or something we’re familiar with. This is also usually the case when we are asked to speak publicly with little to no advance warning. For example, if you are at a meeting for work and you are representing the public relations department, a colleague may ask you to say a few words about a recent news story involving a public relations misstep of a competing company. In this case, you are being asked to speak on the spot because of your expertise. A competent communicator should anticipate instances like this when they might be called on to speak, so they won’t be so surprised. Of course, being caught completely off guard or being asked to comment on something unfamiliar to you creates more anxiety. In such cases, do not pretend to know something you don’t, as that may come back to hurt you later. You can usually mention that you do not have the necessary background information at that time but will follow up later with your comments.

      This reading explains that each delivery method—impromptu, manuscript, and memorized—has specific strengths and weaknesses depending on the speaking situation. I found it interesting that impromptu speaking, although anxiety-inducing, can actually strengthen public speaking skills because it forces speakers to think quickly and organize ideas on the spot. However, it also carries the risk of rambling or overstating knowledge. Manuscript delivery, on the other hand, offers precision and consistency, especially for complex information, but often reduces audience engagement because the speaker may sound like they are reading rather than speaking naturally.

    10.1: Managing Public Speaking Anxiety
    2
    1. Gavingdag 21 Feb 2026
      Last, positive visualization is another way to engage in cognitive restructuring. Speaking anxiety often leads people to view public speaking negatively. They are more likely to judge a speech they gave negatively, even if it was good. They’re also likely to set up negative self-fulfilling prophecies that will hinder their performance in future speeches. To effectively use positive visualization, it’s best to engage first in some relaxation exercises such as deep breathing or stretching, which we will discuss more later, and then play through vivid images in your mind of giving a successful speech. This should be done a few times before giving the actual speech. Students sometimes question the power of positive visualization, thinking that it sounds corny. Ask an Olympic diver what his or her coach says to do before jumping off the diving board and the answer will probably be “Coach says to image completing a perfect 10 dive.” Likewise a Marine sharpshooter would likely say his commanding officer says to imagine hitting the target before pulling the trigger. In both instances, positive visualization is being used in high-stakes situations. If it’s good enough for Olympic athletes and snipers, it’s good enough for public speakers.

      The strategies for addressing public speaking anxiety—systematic desensitization, cognitive restructuring, and skills training—show that anxiety can be managed with practice and mindset changes. I think the idea of communication-orientation modification therapy (COM therapy) is especially helpful because it reframes public speaking as a conversation rather than a performance. This connects to the concept of positive visualization and goal-setting, which build confidence over time. Overall, the reading suggests that while we can’t eliminate anxiety completely, we can control how we respond to it and improve through intentional practice and reflection.

    2. Gavingdag 21 Feb 2026
      Public speaking anxiety is a type of CA that produces physiological, cognitive, and behavioral reactions in people when faced with a real or imagined presentation (Bodie, 2010). Physiological responses to public speaking anxiety include increased heart rate, flushing of the skin or face, and sweaty palms, among other things. These reactions are the result of natural chemical processes in the human body. The fight or flight instinct helped early humans survive threatening situations. When faced with a ferocious saber-toothed tiger, for example, the body released adrenaline, cortisol, and other hormones that increased heart rate and blood pressure to get more energy to the brain, organs, and muscles in order to respond to the threat. We can be thankful for this evolutionary advantage, but our physiology hasn’t caught up with our new ways of life. Our body doesn’t distinguish between the causes of stressful situations, so facing down an audience releases the same hormones as facing down a wild beast.

      This reading explains that public speaking anxiety is a common form of communication apprehension (CA), which can be either trait-based (part of someone’s personality) or state-based (triggered by a specific situation). I found it interesting that the body reacts to public speaking the same way it would to a life-threatening danger because of the fight-or-flight response. The physiological reactions—like sweating, increased heart rate, and shaking—combine with negative thoughts such as fear of judgment, which can then lead to avoidance behaviors. This helps me understand that speaking anxiety is not just “being nervous,” but a complex mix of physical, cognitive, and behavioral responses.

      This is important because it tells me the location. It’s not directly in the city center, but it’s close enough to be convenient.

      The Daughters’ non-importation movement broadened the protest against the Stamp Act and gave women a new, active role in the political dissent of the time.

      I think this is very interesting because its a very bold movement considering it were women to be apart of it.

    2. jazminedahl 21 Feb 2026
      But the decision of the Indians to defend their homeland from invaders is not equal to the attitude of the British, who regarded native peoples as a lesser race that must be moved out of the way of progress.

      This interests me because it really shows how bad the indians were really being treated.

    3. jazminedahl 21 Feb 2026
      The British army imposed harsh discipline on its soldiers, who were drawn from the poorer classes, to ensure they did not step out of line during engagements.

      This really draws my attention, it just shows how people were treated based on the class.

    5. tianaclanton 21 Feb 2026
      In a letter suggesting the British should make “gifts” to the natives of smallpox-infected blankets, Field Marshal Jeffrey Amherst instructed one of his Colonels, “You will do well to inoculate the Indians by means of blankets, as well as every other method that can serve to extirpate this execrable race.”

      This shows how brutal the British were towards the Native Americans.

    6. tianaclanton 21 Feb 2026
      The French, aided by the Potawotomis, Odawa, Shawnee, and Lenape, ambushed fifteen hundred British soldiers and Virginia militia as they marched toward the fort.

      This shows that Native Americans had a big role in the wars.

    7. tianaclanton 21 Feb 2026
      However, the focus away from previous hierarchical structures of the Old Lights did provide some opportunities for women to have a bit more agency, if only in talking about their religious experiences.

      This stand out to me because even with such strict rules it still gave woman a chance to have a voice.

      To make matters worse, Prime Minister Grenville introduced the Stamp Act in early 1765. Under this act, anyone who used or purchased anything printed on paper had to buy a revenue stamp for it

      I don't get why you have to buy a stamp to purchase printed paper.

      «No escribamos nunca cláusula alguna en el papel, sin haberlaconstruido antes en el entendimiento, y desechémosla por demasiado larga, enredada yconfusa siempre que después de construida, no podamos retenerla con facilidad en lamemoria.» (Galí,1896)

      Esta frase que dice Galí me parece muy acertada; después de todo, si tú mismo no comprendes lo que estás escribiendo, menos lo hará el lector.

    2. DalCH 21 Feb 2026
      Además, la comunicación depende también de otros factorescomo el nivel cultural del lector destinatario o el tema del texto

      Lo que menciona aquí el autor es muy importante porque esto determina que grupo de personas será capaz de comprender el texto.

    3. DalCH 21 Feb 2026
      Por un lado, la capacidad media de la memoria a corto plazo esde 15 palabras; o sea, nuestra capacidad para recordar palabras, mientras leemos,durante unos pocos segundos, es muy limitada

      Esto me parece interesante, ya que explica el por qué me pierdo muchas veces cuando estoy leyendo; ocurre más cuando leo en digital.

    4. DalCH 21 Feb 2026
      Tengo que reconocer que resulta más difícil entender una oración sola, sacada decontexto, sin conocer previamente el tema de qué trata

      El autor tiene toda la razón, entender una oración o frase sin un contexto previo es complicado.

    5. DalCH 21 Feb 2026
      «las cláusulas largas, las cuales con su excesivo número de conjunciones ypronombres relativos, hacen el estilo confuso, lánguido y pesado»

      Estoy de acuerdo con el autor porque los textos con oraciones muy largas me cansan y me dificultan la comprensión. A veces tengo que releer varias veces para entender la idea principal, lo que demuestra que la claridad es fundamental en la escritura.

    6. DalCH 21 Feb 2026
      Todos los manuales de redacción aconsejan brevedad: el libro de estilo de El Paísrecomienda una media máxima de 20 palabras por frase;

      Yo tenía conocimiento de que no se escriben textos muy largos para no cansar al lector, pero no sabía que había una medida tan concreta.

    7. DalCH 21 Feb 2026
      Quien quiera entrenarsepuede tapar con un papel la columna de la derecha e intentar mejorar la frase por sucuenta.

      El método que sugiere el autor me parece entretenido y eficiente, puesto que este tipo de ejercicios interactivos ayudan más que solo leer.

    8. DalCH 21 Feb 2026
      Constituyen una oración los enunciados que organizan todos sus constituyentes enrelación con un verbo conjugado en forma personal.

      Me parece interesante lo que menciona, ya que en el colegio aprendí que el verbo es el núcleo de la oración. Esto es importante porque muchas veces se escribimos oraciones incompletas.

    More California schools are banning smartphones, but kids keep bringing them
    1
    1. mcarina 21 Feb 2026
      After a full-time return to campus in 2022, teachers in the district found many students were “interacting intensely with cellphones in a way we didn’t see before the pandemic,” said superintendent Diego Ochoa, and so the school district adopted a smartphone ban for four middle schools in 2022.

      It's amazing to me how much the pandemic has impacted students and how they interact more with the phone through text, beyond just being more social, and how that stuck even after returning to school. The interaction from person to person was not the same; there was more usage of cellphones to communicate with one another

    Research as Inquiry

    1. andrewv853 21 Feb 2026
      When scholarship is working right, publication of research results produces inquiry by other scholars, which in turn produces more research

      When a research is being completed, it could in turn help more people who are possibly doing the same research and find more answers around the same topic

    2. andrewv853 21 Feb 2026
      First you search to see if scholars have been writing about this question (textual research).

      by reading and re-reading to make sure your not asking the same question twice.

      . In fact, attimes throughout history, the best authors were believed to havebeen chosen and directly inspired by God Himself.

      i personally don't believe this in its entirety, I don't follow much religion so I cant say anything for certain, but i feel like man has their OWN separate ideas. So I feel they had created them and wrote the past stories themselves, though i do know people are obsessed with religion

      When people found themselves with more discretionary income in the 50s, they had more choices of what physical goods to buy. When it comes to physical items, the selection can be quite large, but ultimately there are a finite number of product options to choose from. With digital products, by contrast, options are virtually endless; as of 2023 there are almost 2 billion websites on the internet and almost 3 million mobile apps available for download.

      "How is design different for physical and digital products? their approach, the purposes they serve?"

    2. ashleytu 21 Feb 2026
      When it came to visual aspects of user interaction and experience, Adobe was the early pioneer. Illustrator and Photoshop would become the core tools for visual design from their release in 1987 and 1989 respectively, and would remain dominant for the next ~30 years.

      beginning of visual design (digital)

    3. ashleytu 21 Feb 2026
      “In most people’s vocabularies, design means veneer. It’s interior decorating. It’s the fabric of the curtains of the sofa. But to me, nothing could be further from the meaning of design. Design is the fundamental soul of a human-made creation that ends up expressing itself in successive outer layers of the product or service.” (Steve Jobs)

      "why is design important when creating or launching new products, especially today?"

    Chapter 38: Developing Your Research Process
    4
    1. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      Example of a Research Process A successful research process should go through these steps: Decide on the topic. Narrow the topic in order to narrow search parameters. Consider a question that your research will address. Generate sub-questions from your main question. Determine what kind of sources are best for your argument. Create a bibliography as you gather and reference sources.

      Examples of a research process.

    2. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      No matter what field of study you are interested in, you will most likely be asked to write a research paper during your academic career

      Regardless of the subject, any higher education will ask you to write a research paper.

    3. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      Presenting what you have learned from research can be just as important as performing the research

      After solving the mystery, ensure the evidence is presentable and makes sense. Supporting the opinion.

    4. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      The text Successful Writing stresses that when you perform research, you are essentially trying to solve a mystery—you want to know how something works or why something happened. In other words, you want to answer a question that you (and other people) have about the world. This is one of the most basic reasons for performing research.

      Performing research is the equivalent to solving a mystery.

    Advanced Typing - Shortcuts (1943)
    1
    1. chrisaldrich 21 Feb 2026

      Advanced Typing - Shortcuts (1943)

      Advanced Typing: Shortcuts. 16 mm. Vol. MN-1512c. United States Navy Training Film, 1943. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUJfCfqgsX0.

      Correct typing posture: fingers curved<br /> arms sloping up<br /> light fast strokes<br /> steady rhythm

      fast continuous motion of return lever<br /> using backing sheet (aka temping sheet ??)

      Shortcuts:<br /> mise en place for office supplies (she doesn't use this phrasing though) - greater efficiency - cuts down on searching

      tabulators can be helpful. There are two types:<br /> - automatic - handset

      Use tabs for paragraphs, dating letters, columns of numbers, and letter closings.

      To clear all tab stops, put carriage to left, hold tab clear key and move the carriage across. (Usually applies to Royal, Remington, Underwood, and Electromatic).

      On LC Smith and Woodstock machines sometimes have a tab clear lever on the back.

      Decimal tabulator keys help to align a variety of numbers around a decimal point. 09:43

      Always have a few tabs set to prevent a flying carriage which can be hard on the machine.

      When using carbon sheets which are slightly longer than the paper size, cut off a small triangle at the top left hand side. This makes it easier for one to separate the carbons from the copies by holding the top left with one hand and pulling the carbons out from the bottom of the stack.

      To align multiple sheets of paper for carbon copies, use a folded sheet at the top to taco the pages into the machine. Remove the folded sheet once the carbon pack is rolled forward.

      Paper bail rollers should be set to split the pages into thirds (for two rollers).

      Remington noiseless machines have a pressure indicator on the front of the machine (usually above the keyboard) which can be used when using thick carbon packs that may cause the ribbon guide to stick or bind.

      Only erase when the carriage is fully left or right to prevent eraser crumbs from falling into the machine.

      Use a soft eraser on carbon copies. Use and insert slips of paper behind the carbons and allowing them to stick out the sides, erasing from back sheet to front so as not to allow the eraser to mark your carbon copies. For the front sheet, use a shield and ink eraser and erase with a horizontal motion. After erasing, easily pull out the inserted sheets.

      When typing a correction, tap the key lightly two or three times rather than hard once.

      When in a rush and it's necessary to add a word (on double spacing), underline the last letter of the prior word and type a slash (/). Then move the typing line up and type the insertion above the prior line. This creates an "arrow" of sorts for the inserted word.

      Details for inserting extra letters in misspelled words using half-spacing machines. (Underwoods and Electromatics don't have this function.)

      Light pencil marks at the bottom of the sheet can help to indicate the coming bottom of the sheet.

      Putting up the card holders (fingers) on Underwoods and Royals. They help to hold the card and improve print quality and reduce noise.

      Card holders can cause markings on carbon packs if they're not lowered.

      Trick for quickly writing postcards in succession: Disengage the ratchet using the platen spring release (or variable platen switch) Type the address on the front of the card. When done give the platen a quick practiced spin. The postcard with "jump" up and stop at the paper table and be in position for rolling in the opposite direction to write the message on the back of the card! When done a faster spin of the platen will shoot the card over the back of the typewriter where it can land in a box to collect all the postcards which were written in such a manner. <br /> timestamp 23:22

      Time saving methods for addressing envelopes:

      • Front seat principle. Insert the envelope in the usual way and type out the address. When done, turn the envelope down through the machine with the right hand. With the left hand, place the next envelope between the top of the first envelope and the front of the platen. Feed the first envelope back through the machine (in reverse) and the second will be rolled in to place for typing. Continue in this fashion until finished. All the finished envelopes will stack up in the back at the paper table.

      • Chain feeding. The first envelope is inserted and rolled partway into the machine. A second envelope is inserted between the platen and the second envelope (behind the platen). Turn the first envelope to the writing line and type the address. Take out the first envelope and insert the next the same way as before.

      • Uses paper bail. Do the first envelope in the usual way. Spin it out of the machine up and behind the paper bail into a box behind the typewriter.

      For quickly doing labels or small cards:<br /> Create a small zig-zag fold into a piece of paper to create a pocket slot which can be scotch taped on either side. This template paper can then be inserted so that the pocket is visible above the writing line, but the paper below it is still in the platen. The label or card can be placed into the pocket and the platen reversed to feed the label or card in backwards to the desired typing line. Using a v-groove or hole in the typing line can create a pencil line to serve as a guide for inserting many labels at the same place so that the typing lines up between labels.

      Some offices had special platens for holding cards like this.

      Pockets like this can also be used to hold the page to add additional lines at the bottom of pages. Deeper pockets may need to be used for doing this with carbon packs whose carbons are longer than the pages.

      Alternately one can do something similar by creating a inverted u-shaped set of slits into an index card. to hold such labels.

      When in the midst of a page and needing to do another piece urgently, roll back the letter until about 2 inches from the top, and then place in the new page and one between each of the carbons. Then roll forward to do the short message as necessary. Turn back to the insertion position to remove the copies and then continue with the first letter where you left off.

      For drawing horizontal lines on typewriter paper, push the carriage to the extreme left and place the pencil or pen at the edge of the card guide and the scale. Then move the carriage to the right to effect the line. For vertical lines, put the carriage at the desired space and place the pencil at the card guide and scale and move the platen up/down as necessary.

    Chapter 10: Thesis Development
    7
    1. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      Your thesis will probably change as you write, so you will need to modify it to reflect exactly what you have discussed in your essay

      Modification of your thesis is common, working thesis statements become stronger as you gather more evidence, information to support your opinion

    2. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      Assertiveness A thesis statement that is assertive shows readers that you are, in fact, making an argument. The tone is authoritative and takes a stance that others might oppose.

      Assertiveness - tone reflecting argument

    3. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      Ability to be demonstrated For any claim you make in your thesis, you must be able to provide reasons and examples for your opinion. You can rely on personal observations in order to do this, or you can consult outside sources to demonstrate that what you assert is valid. A worthy argument is backed by examples and details.

      Evidence in the form of demonstration is important - providing reasons and examples supporting your opinion.

    4. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      Ability to be argued A thesis statement must present a relevant and specific argument. A factual statement often is not considered arguable. Be sure your thesis statement contains a point of view that can be supported with evidence.

      Thesis must be able to be supported with evidence defending the specific argument.

    5. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      Precision A strong thesis statement must be precise enough to allow for a coherent argument and to remain focused on the topic

      Precision allows you to curate a coherent argument to remain focused on the topic.

    6. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      Specificity A thesis statement must concentrate on a specific area of a general topic. As you may recall, the creation of a thesis statement begins when you choose a broad subject and then narrow down its parts until you pinpoint a specific aspect of that topic. For example, health care is a broad topic, but a proper thesis statement would focus on a specific area of that topic, such as options for individuals without health-care coverage.
      • must concentrate on a specific general topic
      • narrow down the parts of a broad subject until you reach a specific pinpoint.
    7. novahearttt 21 Feb 2026
      A thesis is not your paper’s topic, but rather your interpretation of the question or subject. For whatever topic your professor gives you, you must ask yourself, “What do I want to write about it?” Asking and then answering this question is vital to forming a thesis that is precise, forceful, and confident. A thesis is generally one to two sentences long and appears toward the end of your introduction. It is specific and focuses on one to three points of a single idea—points that will be demonstrated in the body. The thesis forecasts the content of the essay and suggests how you will organize your information. Remember that a thesis statement does not summarize an issue but rather dissects it.

      A thesis is not the topic of your paper, but you perspective of the subject/topic. Answering "what do I want to write about" is vital to forming a thesis that is productive

      I enrolled my daughter to Mission College during her Senior year to make up credit and to get ahead with general ed courses. I didn't think of it as a continuation of high school. There was actually a CONTINUATION SCHOOL in Santa Clara that was/is meant for misfits that had issues in high school.
