    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 text
    For 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

    Polyethylene ionomers as thermally reversible and aging resilient adhesives

    Low-density Polyethylene (LDPE) is a widely used thermoplastic polymer in various industries due to its versatility and cost-effectiveness. However, its inherent limitations, including low strength, poor UV resistance, and poor adhesion properties, have spurred efforts to enhance its applicability. We recently developed a LDPE ionomer based on ion pair comonomers (IPC) that can extend the range of application where traditional LDPE are limited. In this work, we report the effect of the reaction conditions on IPC content and melt flow index (MFI) for the PE ionomer obtained by copolymerizing ethylene with the ion pair dimethyl-amino methacrylate and methacrylic acid. The resulting ionomers exhibited improved mechanical properties, including higher elongation and stress at break, making them superior to conventional LDPE. The developed ionomers display enhanced adhesion properties on aluminum substrates with respect to LDPE. Remarkably, the adhesives exhibit thermal reversibility, making them suitable for applications requiring disassembly. Accelerated aging tests demonstrate the ionomers’ durability, with some even showing increased adhesion after exposure to harsh conditions. Overall, this study highlights the potential of PE-based ionomers as advanced materials that combine the benefits of thermosets and thermoplastics, while offering outstanding adhesive properties when the IPC content is higher than 1 mol %

    abstract: Peter was seven years old when his village was attacked. He walked to the border of Ethiopia, Sudan and into Kenya where he lived for eight years. “Lost Boys Found” is an ongoing, interdisciplinary project that is collecting, recording and archiving the oral histories of the Lost Boys/Girls of Sudan. The collection is a work-in-progress, seeking to record the oral history of as many Lost Boys/Girls as are willing, and will be used in a future book.Age: 25Region: Southern SudanThis picture and bio was donated to the "Lost Boys Found" oral history project from The Arizona Lost Boys Cente
