![]() “Living God” connotes a being, not a mere force. But would the reader naturally think that Lincoln’s words contemplated a personal God? Yes. If such a reader were asked, based on the speech itself, whether Lincoln believed in a personal, sovereign God, what response would one reasonably anticipate? On the surface, the first two paragraphs say nothing pertinent, but the third and fourth paragraphs have a “strikingly religious character.” Our reader presumably would notice the multiple matter-of-fact references to God-“God” (five times), “living God” (once), the “Almighty” (once), the “Lord” (once), “His” (three times), “He” (twice), “Him” (once)-all in the short space of 469 words in two paragraphs. An interesting thought experiment is to imagine someone who has just read the entire address for the first time. One can read the Second Inaugural in many different places and formats, but none more impressive than as carved on the north, inside wall of the Lincoln Memorial. among the small handful of semisacred texts by which Americans conceive their place in the world.” Our claim is that the address reveals Lincoln’s belief in a personal, sovereign God. The Second Inaugural is especially important because it is “a speech of culmination,” disclosing “Lincoln’s thinking, at the end of his life,” on several “key issues.” It is “the martyr-president’s last defining utterance on the nation’s ultimate defining experience. The starting point for our argument is the Second Inaugural Address, which some believe to be Lincoln’s greatest speech. But did Lincoln actually hold these beliefs? While other explanations are theoretically possible, the theory that best accommodates all the evidence is that Lincoln, by the end of his life, believed in a personal, sovereign God. We believe that much of this data strongly suggests Lincoln’s belief in a personal, sovereign God. ![]() ![]() The historical record contains considerable raw data pertaining to Lincoln’s religious beliefs: his words, both written and spoken, and his actions. The evaluative process is straightforward. This is especially true for us, who make this claim about a subject-Lincoln’s religious beliefs-that not only has obvious significance, given his pervasive public use of religious language, but also “has been a source of incessant debate almost from the moment of the assassination itself.” And anyone who proposes that any aspect of Lincoln’s life be accepted as fact is rightly subjected to a heavy burden of proof. They should strive not only for thoroughness and accuracy, but also for impartiality. Consequently, those embarking upon historical inquiry concerning Lincoln bear a great responsibility. Given Lincoln’s overriding cultural significance, it really matters what he believed. Truth is valuable for its own sake, but in Lincoln’s case, it has special importance. We presume that most readers of this Journal agree with Noll that it is important to seek the truth about Lincoln’s religious beliefs. at least as far as historical facts can be verified.” We contend that one more fact should be added to Noll’s list-the mature Lincoln believed in a personal, sovereign God. Although referring to “the vexing knot of Lincoln’s faith,” he also lists elements of Lincoln’s religious experiences and beliefs that have been “verified. While important ambiguities remain, such as whether Lincoln was a Christian in the sense of trusting Jesus as his Savior, some elements of Lincoln’s religious faith are beyond doubt. necessarily remain a puzzle.” We believe that such assertions are overstated. ![]() Adam Gopnik thinks that Lincoln’s faith is “the most vexed question in all the Lincoln literature.” Richard Carwardine writes that Lincoln’s “personal faith. It is commonplace to say that the religion of Abraham Lincoln will forever be a mystery.

I tend to think so. I imagine this change being a huge quality of life and ease of use improvement for me, making me more willing to carry less water and filter more often rather than carrying more water to avoid having to stop to filter as much simply because it's a pain.Īlso, the Evernew seems to have a similar size opening to the Sawyer pouches which is why I'm assuming the process would be about the same in terms of trying to fill it. (given the water source is deep enough to scoop, which it usually is where I hike.) Saving me time from filtering, plus saving me energy from having to squat and hunch over for the amount of time that I need to fill the Sawyer pouch. Whereas with the Cnoc's wide opening scooping up an entire 2 liters becomes quick and easy. The Sawyer Squeeze pouch has always kind of bugged me with the small opening, forcing me to scoop it through the water source 5-7 times just to fill up the bag all the way. The Evernew will save me 1.1oz more than the Cnoc, but the main thing I like about the Cnoc is the wide top opening. With either of these upgrades I will no longer need to bring the Sawyer Squeeze pouch so I'll include that in the weight savings as well.Ĭnoc Vecto 2l - 2.6oz *This will save me about 4.5ozĮvernew 2l - 1.5oz *This will save me about 5.6oz ![]() I'm thinking my new setup could be the same 1 - 2 smart water bottles and sawyer filter, but replace the 3l platy with either a Cnoc Vecto 2l or the Evernew 2l.

![]() The destination is composed of three coordinates. Trying it out in 1.8 would probably be pointless - I could adapt the entity IDs and such, but there's been so much changed about the End since that it might easily break or fix the setup between the versions. The teleport command can take many forms, but here are some of the most common and useful ones: /tp < location x y z>.![]() I didn't test because I'm still mainly using 1.8 because of Forge, so I didn't get the 1.9+ versions of my resourcepack yet. I'd strongly assume this is the case, but I've never actually used multiple different End Portals, so I have no actual experience how they interact. This, of course, assumes that the End Portals placed by the command have the same spawn area as the End Portal you originally use. (Because they would be teleported away again, which would be odd and, depending on what you're doing, might mess up things.) Actually, I'd assume you can remove the original entrance Portal safely. Make sure both the End Portal in the overworld and the spawn area in the End are not accessible during normal gameplay, so players can neither use the Portal for a shortcut to the end nor reach the spawn area again after they've been teleported away. You'll still want to put this in a repeat command block that's constantly active, so players spawning into the End get teleported immediately. ![]() The radius is picked so that it doesn't reach outside the spawn area, but still covers the player, even if he manages to move a bit before the command gets executed. If the player accepts your request, you will be teleported to them after 5 seconds. You can even breed your own Baby Camels by feeding adult Camels with Cactus. In the End, place a command block right below the obsidian layer, with tp x y z, where x, y and z are the coordinates you want the player to be teleported to. /tpa , Sends a request to teleport you to the specified player. Two players can ride a single Camel, and most hostile mobs cant reach you whilst you ride.You need the following commands to be executed in this order:Ä¢a) execute ~ ~ ~ summon armor_stand ~ ~1 ~ Ä¢b) execute ~ ~ ~ setblock ~ ~-1 ~ end_portalÄ¢d) kill condition type=armor_stand makes sure that the command doesn't have any side effects, even if a player or another entity is coincidentally named PortalPoint. In the overworld, set up a command block with execute ~ ~ ~ setblock ~ ~ ~ end_portal.Īlternative: If you want the portal to be immediately removed, you need a more complex setup. This solution I came up with, is building upon a possibility hinted in the answer of Plagiatus above. ![]() It was only yesterday when we last covered the upcoming update for Illfonic's Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, and as a sign of how quickly developments can unfold, we now have a whole host of new information concerning the next update, due out Thursday 20th April.Īs previously reported, the update will feature equipment skins based on 1997's Extreme Ghostbusters, and a new map set in a New York County courthouse.

Personally, the concept I'd like to see isn't so much savg the Kingdom as helping the kingdom to Ascendancy. It might be nice, however, to expect a little more variety from our computer games. Sometimes I want to turn on my computer and save the world. We can still look for something more from our games. Nevertheless, one ship does not make the whole fleet. That ship has sailed, been caught in a storm, and sunk already. Meanwhile, it was the novel approach that the Black Hound promised more than anything else that appealed to me. I agree that there should be a cogent story, but that story need not be the same story told over and over again. ![]() The sky is the limit when we can rise above the need to save the whole enchilada. ![]() Maybe something for those folks who just want to run a crime syndicate in one of the cities of the realm. Give the players who need to be the golden haired savior in every game their due.But have a thought for those of us who might be willing to shell out some cash just to save our wife. Sure, provide an opportunity for a little fame and celebrity. We need a character who starts as a farmer and needs to fight like hell to save his farm. How about I save myself? How about I take over the city for my own evil ends? How about I decide it's time to clean up my own little area of the world? We don't need a character who starts as a farmer and saves the kingdom. It's not that saving the universe is bad. It's shaping up quite nicely.But I really can't help but think that the developers have played the "savior" card too often. In either case, we're denied a setting that transcends the age old formula of a single character (or party) saving the kingdom (or the world or the Universe). I guess the fact is, either the players don't want anything new or the publishers don't want to take a chance that the players don't want anything new. Under that guideline, the team had the opporunity to fashion an appealing story for more player types. ![]() The second was that the story wasn't all about saving the world. One was a truly sliding scale of reputation that the design team translated into an extensive library of epithets. There were two ideas in the Black Hound that I found particularly noteworthy. I really tire of the way developers treat the stories. ![]() Phospholipid liposomes and supported bilayers are other popular membrane mimetics that can harbor membrane proteins in a detergent-free lipid environment, however, they tend to be very non-homogeneous and are not compatible with most of the high resolution structural biology techniques. Detergents can also interfere with the binding of interaction partners as well as with subunit assembly in membrane protein complexes. Even though detergents are easy to handle, they are not ideal for membrane proteins as they may affect sensitive tertiary structure, reduce the MPs' stability and may cause unfolding of the proteins. So far, the most popular membrane mimetics used in membrane protein structural biology are detergent micelles ( Linke, 2009). However, MPs represent a very small fraction of the available protein structures in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), mainly due to challenges in preparing functionally relevant samples in sufficient quantities. Structural information on MPs is a key benefit when seeking new therapeutics, and major efforts have been made toward this aim in the recent years ( Bill et al., 2011 Cheng, 2018). ![]() A majority of approved systemic drugs target membrane proteins due to their involvement in a variety of cellular processes such as signal transduction, transport of ions and molecules across the cell membrane, and cell adhesion to surfaces ( Cournia et al., 2015). Membrane proteins (MPs) play critical roles in health, disease and hence in drug design. In this review, we discuss the recent technical developments in nanodisc technology leading to construction of large nanodiscs and examine some of the implicit applications. Another aspect of exploiting the large available surface area of these novel nanodiscs could be to engineer more realistic membrane mimetic systems with features such as membrane asymmetry and curvature. This enables widening the application of nanodiscs from single membrane proteins to investigating large protein complexes and biological processes such as virus-membrane fusion and synaptic vesicle fusion. Recent advances in nanodisc engineering such as covalently circularized nanodiscs (cND) and DNA corralled nanodiscs (DCND) have opened up the possibility of engineering nanodiscs of size up to 90 nm. Until recently the size of the nanodiscs that could be produced was limited to ~ 16 nm. Phospho-lipid bilayer nanodiscs have gathered much scientific interest as a stable and tunable membrane mimetic for the study of membrane proteins. ![]() 4Renal Division and Engineering in Medicine Division, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States.3Department of Cancer Biology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, United States.2Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard, Boston, MA, United States.1Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, United States.Shih 2,3, Gerhard Wagner 1 and Mahmoud L. ![]() It was a new experience for him, staying with so many people around him. ![]() He stayed in the college hostel, and for the first time in his life, he was staying away from family.

The engine is capable of easily exceeding 200,000 kilometers of operation. The Ford Triton’s 4.6 V8 engine has a strong reputation among owners for dependability and longevity. Ford 4.6 Triton V8 Engine Reliability and Specs They were also equipped with an individually controlled, electronic coil-on-plug ignition system. The ECU and mechanical/electronic throttle body controlled a classic sequential multi-port fuel injection system on modular 4.6 V8s. They also modified camshaft profiles and replaced the variable runner-length intake manifold with a fixed runner-length intake manifold that year. In 1999, engineers updated cylinder heads and incorporated tumble-style intake ports, which feed two intake valves from a single intake port. Each intake valve has its intake port on the four-valve heads from 1993 to 1998. There are two inlets and two exhaust valves on each cylinder. Only aluminum blocks were used in the 32-valve 4.6L DOHC engines (except 2003-2004SVT Cobra, which had an iron block with 4-bolt main bearing caps). The new Modular 4.6-liter V8 series replaced Ford’s Small Block 5.0 H.O. The 4.6L Four-Cam V8 32-valve DOHC engine first appeared in the 1993 Lincoln Mark VIII. Ford made a 4-valve DOHC variant, popular in SVT Cobra and Mach 1 applications. This engine was later used as the base V8 in the Mustang GT. It was a 4.6-liter SOHC eight-cylinder gasoline engine with a 90-degree V-angle and two valves per cylinder. The Ford 4.6 V8 engine was introduced in the 1991 Lincoln Town Car as the first member of Ford’s Modular overhead camshaft engine family to enter production. |
