    James Pfleger enlisted in the US Army in 1942, but remained in inactive service until the end his first year of college. He completed infantry training in August of 1944 and was deployed to the European Theater. Pfleger was assigned to the 3rd Army, 90th Infantry Division, 357th Regiment, Company 1. He served on the front lines in France, Belgium, Luxembourg and Germany

    The Chronology of Erecting the Teutonic Brick Pfleger Castle in Nidzica in the Light of Written Sources

    No full text
    The erection of the brick castle of the Teutonic Order in Nidzica (border territory of the state of the Teutonic Order with Mazovia), intended as the seat of the Teutonic pfleger, directly subordinate to the commander of Ostróda, began at the end of the 14th century. The castle has so far been studied almost solely by historians of art, who were not entirely familiar with the numerous medieval written sources that referred to it. The analysis of the records (documents, correspondence, bills, stock lists) carried out in this article provides answers to two key questions. First, the brick castle of the Teutonic pfleger in Nidzica, which has survived to this day, was built in the period of 1399–1409, contrary to the suggestions of previous researchers, who dated it about 20 years earlier. The main (western) wing was completed in 1405. In the following years, intensive construction work was carried out on the other three wings of the main castle and the surrounding defensive curtain wall (and possibly the outer bailey). In March 1409, the first mention of a Teutonic pfleger appeared in the sources, and the newly built castle became his headquarters. Secondly, the earlier wood-earthen fortress (probably erected in the 1350s) was placed in a different location, which is still unrecognized today

    This video features a church service at Saint Sabina Church in Chicago, Illinois. The video includes musical and dancing performances and sermons delivered by Saint Sabina's Michael Pfleger and Joseph E. Lowery. Lowery speaks about Psalm 137:4, "How can we sing a song of the Lord in a strange land?", and connects it to the struggles of the civil rights movement.The Atlanta University Center Robert W.

    Pocket-space maps to identify novel binding-site conformations in proteins

    No full text
    The identification of novel binding-site conformations can greatly assist the progress of structure-based ligand design projects. Diverse pocket shapes drive medicinal chemistry to explore a broader chemical space and thus present additional opportunities to overcome key drug discovery issues such as potency, selectivity, toxicity, and pharmacokinetics. We report a new automated approach to diverse pocket selection, PocketAnalyzerPCA, which applies principal component analysis and clustering to the output of a grid-based pocket detection algorithm. Since the approach works directly with pocket shape descriptors, it is free from some of the problems hampering methods that are based on proxy shape descriptors, e.g. a set of atomic positional coordinates. The approach is technically straightforward and allows simultaneous analysis of mutants, isoforms, and protein structures derived from multiple sources with different residue numbering schemes. The PocketAnalyzerPCA approach is illustrated by the compilation of diverse sets of pocket shapes for aldose reductase and viral neuraminidase. In both cases this allows identification of novel computationally derived binding-site conformations that are yet to be observed crystallographically. Indeed, known inhibitors capable of exploiting these novel binding-site conformations are subsequently identified, thereby demonstrating the utility of PocketAnalyzerPCA for rationalizing and improving the understanding of the molecular basis of protein–ligand interaction and bioactivity. A Python program implementing the PocketAnalyzerPCA approach is available for download under an open-source license (see below)

    New Source for the Location of the Manor of Teutonic Order Officials in Mortąg

    Mortąg (dawne Mortung), to obecnie wieś położona w powiecie sztumskim (woj. pomorskie) wzmiankowana w źródłach po raz pierwszy w 1312 r. W XIV w. z Mortągiem związana jest siedziba prokuratora krzyżackiego (Pfleger / provisor) później mistrza rybickiego (Fischmeister). Urzędnicy krzyżaccy potwierdzeni są w Mortągu do 1455 r. Przy dworze urzędników w Mortągu funkcjonował także folwark, prokuratorom i mistrzom rybickim podlegały także wsie Stary Dzierzgoń (Alt Christburg), Monasterzysko (Munsterberg) oraz majątek i folwark Matule (Mothalen). W niniejszym artykule autorzy w oparciu o zachowane źródła wskazują potencjalne miejsce lokalizacji krzyżackich zabudowań związanych z funkcjonującym tu dworem oraz / lub folwarkiem.Mortąg (former Mortung), is presently a village situated in the county of Sztum (Pomeranian Voivodeship) mentioned in sources for the first time in 1312. In the 14th century the seat of the Teutonic Procurator (Pfleger / provisor) and later of the Master of Fishery (Fischmeister) is connected with Mortag. Teutonic officials are confirmed in Mortąg until 1455. There was also a manor farm (folwark) adjacent to the officials' manor in Mortag; the villages of Stary Dzierzgoń (Alt Christburg), Monasterzysko (Munsterberg) and the estate and manor of Matule (Mothalen) were also subject to the procurators and masters of fishery. In this article the authors, on the basis of the preserved sources, indicate the potential location of the Teutonic Knights' buildings connected with the manor and/or folwark functioning here
