Moral Good, the Beatific Vision, and God’s Kingdom Writings by Germain Grisez and Peter Ryan, S.J.. Edited by Peter J. Weigel
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

Council Estates, Culture and 'Shameless' Spaces
Australia’s Northern Territory has been inscribed on film as an unspoilt wilderness, an iconic national resource and as a threatening horror landscape. From the definition of ‘the Territory’ as a definitive national location in The Overlanders (1946), this most remote and vacant area of a sparsely populated continent has been promoted as a unique and marketable landscape for Australian cinema. This is epitomised by the convergence of cinema and tourist advertising campaigns with the productions of Crocodile Dundee (1986) and Australia (2008). However, the Northern Territory has also become associated with the uncanny and menacing aspects of the Australian environment, through connections to indigenous culture beginning with Chauvel’s Jedda (1955), and with monstrous and relentless wildlife, as seen in Rogue and Black Water (both 2007). An additional irony to these contrary conceptualisations of the Territory is its realisation on screen via the use of locations from Queensland, Western Australia and New South Wales. Thus the Territory on screen can be described as the comprehensive, representative Australian landscape
Steric and Electronic Effects on the 1H Hyperpolarisation of Substituted Pyridazines by Signal Amplification by Reversible Exchange
Utility of the pyridazine motif is growing in popularity as pharmaceutical and agrochemical agents. The detection and structural characterisation of such materials is therefore imperative for the successful development of new products. Signal Amplification by Reversible Exchange (SABRE) offers a route to dramatically improve the sensitivity of magnetic resonance methods and we apply it here to the rapid and cost effective hyperpolarisation of substituted pyridazines. The 33 substrates investigated cover a range of steric and electronic properties and their capacity to perform highly effective SABRE to be assessed. We find the method to be tolerant to a broad range of electron donating and withdrawing groups, however, sensitivity is evident when steric bulk is added to the 3 and 6-positions of the pyridazine ring. We optimise the method by reference to a disubstituted ester that yields signal gains of >9 000-fold at 9.4 T (>28% spin polarisation)
Joseph Bimeler letter to Peter Kaufmann, June 8, 1844
Letter from J. M. Bimeler (by Christian Weibel) to Peter Kaufmann, acknowledging receipt of Bibles and spelling books and ordering more Bibles. He repeats his statement from his letter of April 31, 1844, of a preference for Bibles that embrace the Apocrypha. The letter also requests a catalog of books on hand at Kaufmann's establishment.
Led by Joseph Bimeler (sometimes spelled Bäumeler) in 1817, a group of Lutheran separatists left Germany and eventually established the small community of Zoar in Tuscarawas County, Ohio. The group formed the Society of Separatists of Zoar, in which each person donated his or her property to the community as a whole, and in exchange for their work, the society would provide for them. After decades of economic prosperity, the unity of the village declined, and by 1898 the Zoarites disbanded the society.
Peter Kaufmann was a German immigrant and intellectual. He arrived first in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1820; in 1826 he became professor of languages at the Harmony Society town of Economy, Pennsylvania. In 1827, Kaufmann led the establishment of Teutonia, a utopian community in Columbiana County, Ohio, and published its weekly titled "Teutonia: The Herald of a Better Time." Following this he moved to Canton, Ohio, where he became translator and editor of "Der Vaterlandsfreund und Geist der Zeit" under Solomon Sala. Additionally, Kaufmann wrote a number of books on education, as well as a German almanac. He was also an influential Democrat, counting President Van Buren among his friends, and knew Ralph Waldo Emerson
