Gone out to Australia, 1882 [manuscript].
No full textManuscript reference no.: MS 3628a.; Transcription (47 p.) available for reference.; Also available on microfilm at the National Library of Australia Newspapers and Microforms Reading Room at mfm G28179.; Also available in an electronic version via the Internet at: http://nla.gov.au/nla.ms-ms3628a; Sir John Ferguson Collection. MS 3628a comprises the bound volume (145 p.) containing Harry G. Horsford Sandeman's autobiography in which are described his adventures and experiences during several years in the Australian colonies. The text does not include dates but appears to cover the 1870s, beginning with an account of Sandeman's voyage from England on board the "Somersetshire" in 1871. There follows a description of his journey to "Burenda", a station near Augathella in south-western Queensland. Sandeman describes the people, places, daily activities, work and social life on sheep and cattle stations he encountered in country areas of Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria. These places include Ipswich, Charleville, Roma, Augathella, Blackall, Carnarvon Ranges, Bourke, Deniliquin, Mudgee, Gulgong and the Blue Mountains. Sandeman also describes his activities and visits to the theatre, opera and dances in Sydney and Melbourne. The text is illustrated with over 550 fine ink drawings by the author (1 phase box)
Pensando el amor: la propuesta de Harry G. Frankfurt
No full textThis present paper suggests underlining the philosophical relevance of love, by turning to the analytical development conducted by Harry G. Frankfurt. In order to do this, we shall make use of the categorizations that Bennet Helm’s establishes and we shall classify Frankfurt’s Theory within a specific category: love as a «robust concern». This will help us attend to the moral psychology of the already stated author and the decisive role that love plays; covered with such authority, as Frankfurt states, that it gives ultimate meaning to our practical reasoning. Finally, and having set forth the relevance of love within all this process, we shall proceed to discuss alongside with Jonathan Lear if love has the authority that Frankfurt gives it.El presente trabajo se propone subrayar la relevancia filosófica del amor acudiendo al desarrollo analítico que del mismo realiza Harry G. Frankfurt. Para ello nos valdremos de la categorización que establece Bennett Helm y encuadraremos la teoría de Frankfurt dentro de una categoría concreta: la del amor como «gran preocupación» [«robust concern»]. Esto nos servirá para atender a la psicología moral de dicho autor y al peso decisivo que el amor juega en la misma; revestido aquel, como afirma Frankfurt, de una autoridad tal que dota de sentido último a nuestro razonamiento práctico. Finalmente, y expuesta la relevancia del amor dentro de todo este proceso, se procederá a discutir de la mano de Jonathan Lear si el amor posee la autoridad que Frankfurt le asigna
Variability of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation at 26N
No full textThe Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and its variability has received considerable attention, motivated by its major role in the global climate system. Observations of AMOC strength at 26?N made by Rapid-WATCH (Rapid climate change - Will the Atlantic Thermohaline Circulation Halt) provide our best current estimate of the state of the AMOC. This study aims to improve understanding of ongoing measurements of AMOC variability made by Rapid-WATCH, and provide context for the 5-year timeseries presently available. The Rapid-WATCH system combines Gulf Stream transport, zonally integrated Ekman transport and mid-ocean transport observations at 26?N to assess AMOC strength. The Gulf Stream is found to possess a smooth annual cycle set by regional meridional wind stress, which is obscured on a year to year basis by internal ocean variability. Ekman transport possesses no dominant annual or semi-annual periodicity, and the seasonal cycle is obscured on a year to year basis by internal atmospheric variability largely related to fluctuations of the Azores high and the North Atlantic Oscillation. Sverdrup transport shows a dominant semi-annual periodicity which is strongly persistent from year to year but not seen in Rapid-WATCH measurements due to barotropic adjustment at these timescales. At interannual timescales, Sverdrup transport variability estimated from wind stress climatologies is found to exceed that of Gulf Stream variability, suggesting AMOC fluctuations of several Sverdrups have occurred over the past 30 years, partly related to the North Atlantic Oscillation. At decadal timescales, six hydrographic sections spread over half a century show that high latitude deep water mass changes have consistently spread to 24?N, with the DWBC their principal conduit into the 24?N section. Decadal changes in deep water transport of several Sverdrups are balanced by dynamic height changes close to the western boundary whilst water mass changes are largely density compensated
Warren G. Harding letter to Adolphe Danziger, February 21, 1921
No full textIn this letter dated February 21, 1921, President-elect Warren G. Harding writes to Adolphe Danziger, a Jewish scholar, lawyer and author, to thank him for the poem he wrote honoring Harding titled "Within the Storm."
This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345). This collection includes correspondence, business records, and other materials documenting Harding’s business career as owner and editor-in-chief of The Daily Marion Star, as well as the various stages of his political career. A significant portion of the collection, and what’s available on Ohio Memory, highlights his 1920 presidential campaign, spanning just before publicly announcing his candidacy to handily defeating Ohio Governor James M. Cox in the election. Correspondents include both Ohio and national businessmen, political figures, and ordinary citizens writing with questions, support, congratulatory notes, and campaign advice. Some of the most interesting insights into the tumultuous political climate in the U.S., the extreme factionalism within the Republican Party in Ohio, and Harding’s campaign strategies are described in letters between Harding and his campaign manager, Harry M. Daugherty. Some of the topics addressed include women’s suffrage, Prohibition, the League of Nations, African American representation and issues, and lingering peace negotiations following World War I

Ellen G. White Portrait
No full textProphetess, preacher, missionary, mother, and author of over one hundred original and compiled books, Ellen G. White filled her life of 87 years with selfless service to the God and Gospel she so dearly loved. While her wide travels took her not only across the United States but also through the European countries and Australia, she nevertheless found time to raise three sons together with her husband, best friend, and partner in the work of God, James White. The revelations she received in vision and related to the young Seventh-day Adventist church, together with the divinely inspired counsel she provided, covered a wide range of subjects including health, ministry, education, church administration, and, of course, Biblical themes such as the Great Controversy and the plan of salvation. In her lifetime she was an invaluable pillar of the Seventh-day Adventist movement and early leadership, and her influence is still felt in the heart and life of the church today.
Harry Ahn, an internationally recognized artist who has lent his talent to Andrews University as a contract teacher for the past 25 years, has once again put brush to canvas to produce a portrait of Ellen G. White in his signature oil paint style. A graduate of the MSH Studio School of Art, Ahn developed a passion for Biblical and religious themes in his art, which led him to become a portrait artist whose paintings exhibit a rare depth of humanity and the beauty of the soul, a quality acknowledged many times over by prestigious awards. Ahn attributes his unique talent and success to the grace of God and, when commissioned to paint the portrait of James White now displayed in the library bearing the founder’s name and for which the new painting will be a companion, he expressed how honored he felt to be entrusted with such a task.https://digitalcommons.andrews.edu/library-art/1000/thumbnail.jp
