Abbot Peter Engel Science Center
No full textSide elevation with concrete surrounds and setback windows; The Peter Engel Science Center was designed by Marcel Breuer and Associates of New York City. Constructed in 1965-1966 and renovated in 1996, this 125,000 square-foot facility houses field biology, psychology, astronomy, physics, mathematics, computer science, and geology. The Science Center is named after Abbot Peter Engel (1856-1921), Saint John's fourth abbot; he fostered the construction of an observatory and photographic studio which were among the first in the State of Minnesota. He also brought electricity to the campus. Source: College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University [website]; http://www.csbsju.edu/ (accessed 8/3/2014

Shape switchable azo macrocycles
No full textThe present thesis is organized in three main chapters. The first section discusses a research project for the integration of azobenzene motives as a functional unit in macrocyclic molecular structures. The optically addressable switching units give access to two conformations with large differences in exterior form. Due to the rigid design with a m�terphenyl backbone and the integration of two azo units a considerable stabilization of the thermodynamically less favored cis�isomer is obtained.
In a second project the modification of platinum electrodes with different functional molecules, in order to obtain tailor made surfaces is investigated. By electrochemical grafting the electrodes with a suitable diazonium salt, an organic coated platinum electrode exposing iodoaryls is obtained. Subsequent Sonogashira cross-coupling chemistry with tailor made acetylene molecules allows substituting the exposed iodines with various functional groups. The new technique is improved in order to introduce a wide range of functional groups onto surfaces with a high surface coverage of functional subunits.
In a last project a bridged biphenyl as a novel molecular switch and memory device based on “mechanical” motion in a molecular biphenylic structure was synthesized. To alter the transport properties by an external stimulus, such as light, an azobenzene derivative as a bistable molecular subunit with state dependent length as the bridging system was integrated

Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel
No full textFor close to half a century, the work of Germain Grisez has been highly influential, and his writings continue to receive considerable attention from philosophers and theologians of diverse viewpoints. His co-author for this work is the professor and noted moral theologian Fr. Peter Ryan, S.J., currently the executive director of the Secretariat of Doctrine and Canonical Affairs of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). These two eminent scholars explore fundamental questions about Christian eschatology, moral theory, the purpose of human life, and the promise of human fulfilment. The authors examine Christian teaching on the final destiny of persons, investigating the meaning of God's kingdom, the hope of the beatific vision, and the centrality of moral goodness and divine grace in one's final end. This work is an ideal source for students, scholars, ministers and lay persons interested in basic questions of Christian theology, the philosophy of religion, ethical theory, and Catholic doctrin
