Sean - Leif Erickson
Leif Erikson, a Norse explorer from Iceland, was the first known European to reach North America around the year 1001, nearly 500 years before Christopher Columbus. He explored parts of North America, including Baffin Island and an area he called Markland, finding forests, grapes, and establishing Christianity in Greenland upon his return.
The Life of Leif Erkisson
Leif Eriksson was the second son of Erik the Red, born in Iceland around 970. He discovered Vineland after being blown off course while trying to introduce Christianity to Greenland, spending a winter there before returning to Greenland with grapes and timber. Leif Eriksson fell in love with a noble woman named Thorgunna with whom he had a son named Thorgils. Sadly, Leif Eriksson died in Greenland around 1020.

Leif Eriksson was a Norse explorer born in Iceland in 980 AD who led an expedition to North America around the year 1000. He landed first in Helluland (Baffin Island), then Markland (Labrador), and finally Vinland (Newfoundland), becoming the first known European to reach North America, nearly 500 years before Christopher Columbus. October 9th is celebrated as Leif Eriksson Day in honor of his discovery of the eastern coast of North America. The document provides background on Eriksson's life and voyages, the routes he took, and hardships faced during his expedition.
The vikings
Vikings played war games with wooden swords and enjoyed a strategy game called hnefatafl. They lived with their families in longhouses which had no windows and smoke escaped through the roof. Women cooked and spun wool while men and girls worked on the farm. Erik the Red was banished from Norway and Iceland for killing people. He discovered Greenland and misleadingly named it to attract settlers, despite its icy conditions.
Viking Migration
The document discusses the first recorded Viking raid on Lindisfarne island off the coast of England in 793 CE. This marked the beginning of Viking migration from Scandinavia, the original home of Germanic tribes like the Goths and Vandals, to other parts of Europe and beyond in search of resources and wealth. Some key figures that led Viking explorations mentioned include Eirik Raude, who first settled Greenland, and Leif Eriksson, who is credited as the first European to reach North America around the year 1000 CE. Many Vikings migrated due to lack of resources and food at home, and sought richer lands to trade goods and improve their livelihoods.

The first clearly dated Viking visit was in 793 CE when monks on the island of Lindisfarne, off the northeast coast of England, were surprised by the arrival of Vikings from Scandinavia. The Vikings were the last major migration from Scandinavia, the original home of the Goths and Vandals. Eirik Raude was the first person to successfully settle Greenland in the late 10th century after others had tried and failed. Leif Eriksson, Eirik's son, is believed to have been the first European to reach North America around the year 1000, approximately 500 years before Christopher Columbus's voyage. Vikings migrated for several reasons, including seeking more fertile land for farming and resources as populations grew

L anse aux-meadows
L'Anse aux Meadows is an archaeological site located in Newfoundland, Canada that provides evidence of Viking settlement in North America around the year 1000 AD. The site contains the remains of eight buildings similar to those used by Vikings in Iceland and Greenland at the time. Artifacts found at the site, such as iron nails, rivets, and tools, confirm the settlers were Norsemen. It is believed the settlement served as a waystation for repairing ships and exploring, rather than a long-term colony, and was later abandoned.
The vikings

Early New Zealand
Early settlers arrived in New Zealand in the 1790s to hunt seals and whales, requiring strength and harpoons. In the 1850s, whaling stations closed after using blubber to produce oil. Immigrants washed clothes by dunking them in water and hung them on ropes to dry. The first sheep arrived by ship and their wool was sheared and sold.

Lecture 3 (2)
Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected president in 1932 and helped establish social programs like Social Security to help the US recover from the Great Depression. In 1941, Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, drawing the US into World War II. The US fought against Germany and Japan and developed the atomic bomb, which it dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945, leading Japan to surrender. After the war, tensions rose between the US and Soviet Union as Eastern Europe fell under communist rule.
Lecture 4 (2)
The opening of the Berlin Wall in November 1989 symbolized the remarkable political changes happening in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe at that time. The Berlin Wall, which had divided East and West Berlin since 1961, was opened, allowing East German citizens to freely cross into West Berlin. This event marked the fall of communist control in Eastern Europe and was the beginning of German reunification.
Lecture 2.3+
America's first two political parties were the Federalists, who favored a strong central government, and the Democratic-Republicans, who supported states' rights. The Whiskey Rebellion during Washington's presidency demonstrated the Federalist belief in a powerful federal authority. Subsequent presidents expanded U.S. territory through the Louisiana Purchase and victories in the War of 1812. Andrew Jackson's election in 1828 heralded the rise of democracy and populism as the nation expanded westward, though the issue of slavery divided North and South and led to the Civil War in 1861. The war resolved the questions of secession and abolished slavery, but Reconstruction efforts were opposed and racial segregation persisted afterward.
Lecture 4 (1)
From 1945 to 1970, the US experienced strong economic growth and rising living standards, though racial integration progressed slowly. The Soviet launch of Sputnik spurred increased US government investment in education and technology. Young and charismatic John F. Kennedy was elected president in 1960 on a message of revitalizing the country, but was assassinated in Dallas, Texas in 1963.
Lecture 7 -1
The document traces the development of the American economy from its origins as marginal colonial economies through its growth into a huge, integrated, industrial powerhouse that dominated the global economy in the late 19th/early 20th centuries. It discusses how the early American economy had to be built from nothing by settlers, the economic challenges of the 1800s including financial crises and recessions, the measures taken during the 1900s like government spending to strengthen the economy during downturns, and how despite fears, the US remains a leader in many high-tech fields today although it no longer dominates globally as it once did due to its relatively small population.
Lecture 5 (1)
The United States is a large, geographically diverse country located in North America between Canada and Mexico. It spans over 9 million square kilometers and contains vast ranges including the Appalachian Mountains in the East, the Rocky Mountains in the West, and the Great Plains in between. The country has many rivers such as the Mississippi, Missouri, and Colorado, as well as the Great Lakes along the northern border. There is also significant geographic diversity including forests, deserts, farmland, and coastlines along the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
Lecture 1.2
1) In 1492, Christopher Columbus sailed west from Spain in an attempt to reach Asia but instead landed in the Caribbean, beginning European exploration and colonization of the Americas.
2) Over the next few centuries, European powers including Spain, England, France, and the Netherlands established colonies throughout North and South America for wealth, trade, and religion.
3) The early English colonies included Jamestown in 1607 and Plymouth in 1620, while other colonies like Maryland and Pennsylvania embraced religious tolerance. Colonization brought not only Europeans but also African slaves and farmers from other nations.
Lecture 2.2+
The document discusses the origins and key aspects of the US Constitution. It notes that the Declaration of Independence established principles of natural rights and consent of the governed. The 13 colonies were initially independent states governed by the weak Articles of Confederation. In 1787, delegates drafted a new Constitution establishing a stronger federal government with powers like taxation, foreign relations and a Supreme Court. It also created checks and balances among the three branches of government. Later, a Bill of Rights was added guaranteeing individual liberties like freedom of religion and speech.
Lecture 7 -3
More than 18.5 million Americans work in manufacturing industries, including over 2 million in machinery manufacturing. Other large industries include food production, clothing, metal goods, electronics, wood products, textiles, publishing, and paper. Alaska's main manufactured goods are canned fish and lumber, while Hawaii produces sugar and canned pineapples. There has been growth in engineering and scientific jobs in industries focused on research and labor-saving machines. New industries have emerged from discoveries in areas like atomic energy, plastics, and electronics, which now employs over 1 million people.
Lecture 3 (1)
During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the US became a leading industrial power as steel, oil and other industries boomed, making some businessmen very wealthy. Mass immigration from Europe provided workers for these industries. However, half of industrial workers still lived in poverty. The economic prosperity of the 1920s turned to crisis with the 1929 stock market crash, known as "Black Thursday", which led to thousands of bank failures, soaring unemployment, and depressed farm incomes and wages in the ensuing Great Depression.
Lecture 7-2
The United States is the world's leading agricultural nation, despite a small percentage of the population being involved in farming. Agriculture is a major industry in the US, with over 2 million farms cultivating over 900 million acres. Farming is concentrated in the central Great Plains and around the Great Lakes. The US is the top global supplier of grains, dairy, meat, and soybeans, producing a disproportionate amount relative to its farm land area. However, overproduction has lowered prices and caused difficulties for some farmers.
Lecture 4 (3)
President Bush focused on domestic issues like the economy and healthcare in 1992 but lost reelection to Bill Clinton. George W.

The United States is the world's leading agricultural nation despite having less than 8% of the world's land suitable for farming and less than 3% of its population involved in agriculture. The US produces about 20% of the world's wheat, corn, oats and sorghum as well as being responsible for 14% of dairy products and 17% of meat globally. Additionally, American farmers face the challenge of overproducing food and agricultural products, which has lowered prices and caused difficulties for some farmers.
Lecture 7 -1
The document traces the development of the American economy from its colonial roots to modern times. It discusses how the economy had to be built from nothing by immigrants in the colonial era. In the 1800s, the economy grew but recessions were frequent and severe. By the 1900s, the US had the largest economy in the world and continued developing innovative industries. While no longer dominant, the American economy remains highly influential as a global leader in many high-tech fields.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the US underwent rapid industrialization, with industries like oil, steel, and textiles booming. Inventions in electricity also helped drive economic growth. However, the stock market crash of 1929 marked the beginning of the Great Depression, with bank failures and mass unemployment. After the Pearl Harbor attack in 1941, the US entered World War II and its industrial might helped ensure victories over Germany and Japan. However, the postwar period saw increased tensions with the Soviet Union and the emergence of the Cold War.
Lecture 2.2+
The document discusses the origins and key aspects of the US Constitution. It notes that the Declaration of Independence established principles of natural rights and consent of the governed. The 13 colonies were initially independent states governed by the weak Articles of Confederation. In 1787, delegates drafted a new Constitution establishing a stronger federal government with powers like taxation, foreign relations and a Supreme Court. It also created checks and balances among the three branches of government. Later, a Bill of Rights was added guaranteeing individual liberties like freedom of religion and speech.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
