    Peter "Petrus" Boehler was born to Johann Conrad and Antoinette Elisabeth (Hauff) Boehler on December 31st, 1712, in Frankfurt am Main. He began his schooling at the age of four, studying in Latin by the age of 8 in preparation for medical school. However, he chose to study theology in Jena at the age of 18. It was while he was studying theology that he was introduced to the Moravians by August Gottlieb Spangenberg. During his time as a student, he also met Zinzendorf and other important Moravian figures several times, including visiting Herrnhut in 1735. After completing his studies in Jena, he travelled to Savannah, Georgia in 1737, where an early Moravian community was being organized. He returned to Germany and was ordained by Zinzendorf and David Nitschmann in the Ronneburg Castle. In 1738, he traveled to London, where he began working with John Wesley. The men would later go their seperate ways, Boehler focusing on the Moravian Church, while Wesley worked on developing the Methodist movement. Later that same year, he travelled to a missionary post in Purrysburg, South Carolina, leaving Portsmouth, England and stopping in Savannah, Georgia. Throughout his time in the colonies, aside from his duties as a general leader in the Moravian community, Boehler was a missionary among African slaves, Native Americans, and other colonists. In 1739, he traveled back to Savannah. Due to a disagreement between Moravians and other protestant sects in the area, Boehler helped move settlers from Georgia to Pennsylvania in 1740. Boehler and the settlers then moved to organize the towns of Nazareth and Bethlehem in 1742. It was during this time that Boehler fell out with one of his allies, calvinist preacher George Whitefield, regarding the issue of predestination. He continued to travel between England and the North American colonies throughout most of his life, preaching and working within the church. He spent time working as the superintendent of the Moravian Church of England, and at that time was consecrated a bishop in the Church. He left his position in the Moravian Church in England in 1753, and returned to the North American colonies. There, he supervised several Moravian communities, including the settlements at Wachovia, North Carolina, and Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, until 1764, when became a member of the Unity Elders\u27 Conference. He died in London on April 27th, 1775, at the age of 63. 4 folders This collection includes correpondence by Peter "Petrus" Boehler (Boehler) and others, a diary and various other writings, including discourses by Boehler

    A close-up view of the horseshoe disk HD142527

    Transitions disks are perfect laboratories to study disks in dissipation phase, generally due to the presence of planets. We present ALMA observations of the very large horseshoe transitional disk HD142527 (up to 400 AU in gas). Many features are now visible as shadows by the inner disk, large inner cavity, local heating due to surface perturbations, photodissociation effects, etc.Yann Boehler, Andrea Isella et al.

    Internal Resistive Heating of an Almax-Boehler Diamond Anvil Cell

    No full text
    A new internal resistively heated diamond anvil cell (DAC) for the investigation of Earth materials at simultaneous high pressure and temperature will be developed on base of the Almax-Boehler type DAC. Combining resistively heated strip heater with the large opening angle design of the Almax-Boehler DAC will be beneficial for in situ diffraction and spectroscopy experiments of the structure-property relationships in Earth materials at pressure and temperature conditions of the Earth\u27s interior. This new design will address some of the technical shortcomings of the laser-heated DACs method, such as inhomogeneous temperature distribution and imprecise measurement of the temperature. Previous studies employing the internally resistive heating method have shown that the temperature quality is homogeneous and stable. An internal resistive heater has the potential to generate temperatures in the sample comparable to the laser heating method, thus preventing pressure and temperature restrictions and/or requiring additional equipment to maintain functionality as with an external resistive heater. The goal in this work was to fabricate a strip heater for the Almax-Boehler type DAC, which is effective with diffraction studies at simultaneous high pressure and temperature. The new technique offers great promise, and future work with greater modifications of this high pressure-temperature device is plausible. | 46 page

    The cost of changing physical activity behaviour: Evidence from a "physical activity pathway" in the primary care setting

    Copyright @ 2011 Boehler et al.BACKGROUND: The ‘Physical Activity Care Pathway’ (a Pilot for the ‘Let’s Get Moving’ policy) is a systematic approach to integrating physical activity promotion into the primary care setting. It combines several methods reported to support behavioural change, including brief interventions, motivational interviewing, goal setting, providing written resources, and follow-up support. This paper compares costs falling on the UK National Health Service (NHS) of implementing the care pathway using two different recruitment strategies and provides initial insights into the cost of changing physical activity behaviour. METHODS: A combination of a time driven variant of activity based costing, audit data through EMIS and a survey of practice managers provided patient-level cost data for 411 screened individuals. Self reported physical activity data of 70 people completing the care pathway at three month was compared with baseline using a regression based ‘difference in differences’ approach. Deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analyses in combination with hypothesis testing were used to judge how robust findings are to key assumptions and to assess the uncertainty around estimates of the cost of changing physical activity behaviour. RESULTS: It cost £53 (SD 7.8) per patient completing the PACP in opportunistic centres and £191 (SD 39) at disease register sites. The completer rate was higher in disease register centres (27.3% vs. 16.2%) and the difference in differences in time spent on physical activity was 81.32 (SE 17.16) minutes/week in patients completing the PACP; so that the incremental cost of converting one sedentary adult to an ‘active state’ of 150 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity per week amounts to £ 886.50 in disease register practices, compared to opportunistic screening. CONCLUSIONS: Disease register screening is more costly than opportunistic patient recruitment. However, additional costs come with a higher completion rate and better outcomes in terms of behavioural change in patients completing the care pathway. Further research is needed to rigorously evaluate intervention efficiency and to assess the link between behavioural change and changes in quality adjusted life years (QALYs).This article is available through the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    No full text
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
