Let us divide our labours; thou, where choice / Leads thee, or where most needs, whether to wind / The woodbine round this arbour, or direct / The clasping ivy where to climb; while I, / In yonder spring of roses intermixed / With myrtle, find what toredress till noon:[…]

Sir; When last in Philadelphia, you mentioned to me your wish that I shouldre-dress a certain paper, which you had prepared. As it is important, that a thing of this kind should be done with great care, and much at leisure, touched and retouched, I submit a wish, that, as soon as you have given it thebody you mean it to have, it may be sent to me.

It will be pleaded, thirdly, that no substitute for war can be devised, which will insure to a nature aredress of wrongs.—But is it common for a nation to obtain aredress of wrongs by war? As toredress, do not the wars of nations resemble boxing at a tavern, when both the combatants receive a terrible bruising, then drink together, and make peace, each, however, bearing for a long time the marks of his folly and madness? Aredress of wrongs by war is so uncommon, that unless revenge isredress, and multiplied injuries satisfaction, we should suppose that none but madmen would run the hazard.

The offering ofredress and reparations to Japanese Americans was a significant step in the proliferation of aredress and reparation norm. As previously stated,redress had previously been focused on transitional justice, providing criminal, legislative, and reparatory justice following a shift from an authoritarian regime to a democratic regime.

The position of the grinding wheel surface relative to the machine axis positions continually changes due to grinding wheel wear, thermal expansion of the machine tool, and thermal expansion or contraction of the grinding wheel.[…] The effect of this variability is that the wheel position stored in the CNC [computer numerical control] is inaccurate by the time it is necessary tore-dress the grinding wheel. To overcome this problem, the machine user often specifies a large dressing in-feed to guarantee that the dressing tool will dress the grinding wheel.
