A quotation from The Bible

What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but does not have works? Surely that faith cannot save, can it? If a brother or sister is naked and lacks daily food and one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and eat your fill,” and yet you do not supply their bodily needs, what is the good of that? So faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead.

But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from works, and I by my works will show you faith.

The Bible (The New Testament) (AD 1st - 2nd C) Christian sacred scripture
James 2:14-18 [NRSV (2021 ed.)]

Scientists Finally Solved the Mystery of #How the #Mayan #Calendar #Works
The Mayan calendar's 819-day cycle has confounded scholars for decades, but new research shows how it matches up to planetary cycles over a 45-year span. That's a much broader view of the tricky calendar than anyone previously tried to take.

In a study published in the journal Ancient Mesoamerica, two Tulane University scholars highlighted how researchers never could quite explain the 819-day count calendar until they broadened their view.
"Although prior research has sought to show planetary connections for the 819-day count, its four-part, color-directional scheme is too short to fit well with the synodic periods of visible planets," the study authors write.

"By increasing the calendar length to 20 periods of 819-days a pattern emerges in which the synodic periods of all the visible planets commensurate with station points in the larger 819-day calendar."
That means the Mayans took a 45-year view of planetary alignment and coded it into a calendar that has left modern scholars scratching their heads in wonder.

While ancient Mayan culture offered various calendar types, the one that baffled scholars the most was this 819-day calendar discovered in glyphic texts. Researchers have long believed this calendar was associated with planetary movements, especially the synodic periods — when a planet appears visually to return to the same location in the sky, as seen from Earth — of key planets. However, each planet moves quite differently and matching up multiple planets into an 819-day span didn't seem to make sense.

But it does when you look at it over 16,380 days (roughly 45 years), not just 819 days. That's a total of 20 x 819-day timelines.

#Mercury was always the starting point for the tricky timeline because its synodic period — 117 days — matches nicely into 819. From there, though, we need to start extrapolating out the 819 number, and if you chart 20 cycles of 819 days, you can fit every key planet into the mix.

And #Mars may be the kicker for the overall length. With a 780-day synodic period, 21 periods match exactly to 16,380, or 20 cycles of 819 days. #Venus needs seven periods to match five 819-day counts, #Saturn has 13 periods to fit with six 819-day counts, and #Jupiter 39 periods to hit 19 x 819-counts.
"Rather than limit their focus to any one planet," the authors write,

"the #Maya #astronomers who created the 819-day count envisioned it as a larger calendar system that could be used for predictions of all the visible planet's synod periods, as well as commensuration points with their cycles in the Tzolk'in and Calendar Round."

We were thinking too small all along.

GNU Linux (Debian 11) - Brother HL-5450DN reliable Black and White Laser printer - that works out of the box with cups - filter those laser printers

Brother HL-5450DN

good job all involved 🙂

the MFC 9465 and 9460 and 9332 also should work “smooth” (the install script (which will download & install additional drivers) might be needed for scan functionality)

laser printers & health

  • it might be wise, to give the laser printers it’s own room (get a room)
    • living room
    • sliping room
    • dining room
  • plus a filter on the output fan vents (it’s the large one on the right-top side)
      • tested and yes, a lot of black sooth will accumulate here

Dear all

for the change from #summer to #autumn i would like to invite you to enjoy one of my #works on my website: #KissingMaterial

it is five short #video animations, #compilations from my own #text- #image and #music material from the last year.
they are very personal, contemplative #statements from an unusual time for all of us.

here is the link, which will be unlocked starting september 21:
https://mathias-wendel.de/KissingMaterial/

hoping that everyone is doing well so far,
warm greetings
