Abstract:
Germain Grisez’s philosophical argument for respecting human life has been developed by fellow new natural law (NNL) theorists and applied to a range of lethal actions, for its conclusion is vast: intending the death of any human being as a means or an end is wrong in itself. For some Thomists, the NNL view on killing is both lax and rigorist: They consider it lax because its narrow criterion for what is “intended” leaves out some acts, especially ones related to abortion, that the critics consider murder. And they consider the NNL view rigorist insofar as it apparently rules out the death penalty, contrary to the Thomistic tradition and perhaps even heretically. However, the most salient philosophical arguments for exceptions to the principle against intending anyone’s death are weaker than the case for any given premise of the contrary NNL argument. Nevertheless, some NNL theorists’ arguments on life are unsound, some can be defended better than they have been, and some nonphilosophical objections based on theological authority require more exploration.

Abstract:
This is a biography of George Platt Lynes (1907–1955), the gregarious American portrait, dance, fashion, and male nude photographer whose career spanned the late 1920s through his early death. From age eighteen, Lynes entered the cosmopolitan world of the American expatriate community in Paris when he became acquainted with the salon of Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas. Intending to pursue a writing and small-press publishing career, Lynes also began photographing authors like Stein, Jean Cocteau, André Gide, and Colette. Soon, he turned exclusively to photography, establishing himself as one of the premier fashion photographers in the Condé Nast stable, documenting the ballet companies of George Balanchine/Lincoln Kirstein, and pursuing a private obsession with seductive images of young male nudes rarely published in his lifetime. Lynes’s personal life was as glamorous and theatrical as his images with their brilliant studio lighting and dramatic Surrealist setups. Barely out of his teens, he met publisher Monroe Wheeler, who was already in a relationship with emerging expatriate novelist Glenway Wescott. The peripatetic threesome maintained a polyamorous connection that lasted some fifteen years. Their New York apartment became a mecca for elegant name-dropping dinner parties. Their ménage-a-trois complicates our understanding of the pre-Stonewall gay “closet.” This biography, drawing upon intimate letters and an unpublished memoir of Lynes’s life by his brother, the writer and editor Russell Lynes, paints a portrait of the emerging influence of gays and lesbians across cultural genres that defined transatlantic cosmopolitan culture and presaged later gay political consciousness.

Abstract:
Abstract The prosecution had embarked on the trial of Hardy with public opinion certainly on their side. In the months following the arrests of early May, most of the newspapers had treated the case against the defendants as virtually proved-all the more so after the publication of the Commons’ Second Report, and still more when the trial of Watt had revealed what appeared to be a planned insurrection in support of universal suffrage. The notion, widely expected no doubt to be proved literally true, that the societies had been intending the death of George III, must, as Erskine acknowledged, have caused widespread outrage, the more so when, in late September, the Government had announced the discovery of the Pop-Gun Plot, a conspiracy supposedly hatched by members of the LCS to assassinate the king. Eyre’s charge had apparently confirmed that, even taking the case at its weakest, the activities of the reform societies would come within the scope of the lav; of treason.

Abstract:
In Davidson's example of causal deviancy, a climber knows that he can save himself from plummeting to his death by letting go of a rope connecting him to a companion who has lost his footing, but the thought of the contemplated act so upsets him that he lets go unintentionally. Causation of behavior by intentional states that rationalize it is not enough for it to count as acting. Therefore, the behavior must be caused in 'the right way' or by the Right Kind of Cause (RKC). The immediate cause in Davidson's and other examples of causal immediacy is the agent's awareness or contemplation of what he or she is intending or thinking of doing, which is either caused by, or implicit in the agent's awareness of, his or her intentions or beliefs and desires. I argue that RKC can only be a mechanism-the Will-whose operation we are not directly aware of, but only indirectly once the action is underway.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter narrates the scandalous uprising of nuns that occurred not long after Radegund’s death. The precise sequence of events that led the rebellious nuns and their leaders, Chlothild and Basina, to leave Holy Cross is reconstructed in detail. The motivations of the two nuns are carefully examined. They were not necessarily intending to abandon the monastic life, but to acquire control over Holy Cross and to run the institution in a manner not unlike Radegund herself (with themselves as her heirs). They may have even seen themselves as monastic reformers, even though the unintended result of their uprising was the near destruction of the convent itself. The chapter carefully works through the information presented by Gregory of Tours and the judgement of bishops issued shortly after the uprising was suppressed. Although Chlothild and Basina failed in their objectives, they escaped serious punishment because of their status as relatives of the reigning kings.

Abstract:
Abstract Jorge Luis Borges was a notoriously shy individual in life yet paradoxically he inscribed himself prominently in his writings. The focus of this chapter is on the late fiction, an underrepresented corpus in traditional Borges studies, and its aim is to examine how the author’s need to depend on others to take down stories which he dictated from memory affected his literary persona. Its originality lies in the investigation’s approach which does not rely on known biographical accounts but on what has been coined as “biographemes”, meaning snippets of biographical information linked to the author without intending to be a complete portrayal. Mostly, these biographemes are transposed clues that are purposely and misleadingly disguised, such as opaque references to his illustrious ancestors, to other writers, or to fictional characters. An underlying concern is whether and the extent to which this self-figuration is authentic or is itself a subterfuge to mask greater unknowable complexities. The collections examined are El informe de Brodie [Doctor Brodie's Report] (1970) which relates tales of rivalry, violence, and bravado while El libro de arena [The Book of Sand] (1975) is thematically varied and includes “Ulrikke,” the only love story told from the female perspective, as well as “El congreso” [The Congress], described by the author as his most autobiographical story. La memoria de Shakespeare [Shakespeare's Memory] (1983) focuses on the complex relationship between life and its recollection seen from the shadow of death.

Abstract:
Abstract Born in Geneva, raised by an aunt after the death of his mother, Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778) was, he tells us, largely educated by his solitary reading of Cicero and Romantic French novels. When he left Geneva in 1728, he became associated with Mme Warens, who influenced his (temporary) conversion from Calvinism to Catholicism. In 1748, he went to Paris, intending to make his fame as a musician. His opera, Le Devin du Village (1752), was not a great success, but he became a visible intellectual figure, and Diderot invited him to contribute to the Encyclopédie. Against the background of a theory of human nature, both The Discourse on the Arts and Sciences (1750) and The Discourse on the Origins of Inequality (1755) present severely critical descriptions of social luxury and political corruption. The Lettre aà d’Alembert (1758) charges opera and the theater with debasing public morality. As he saw it, social corruption arises from a ramified and entrenched division of labor that engenders dependency, passivity, and resentment. Rousseau’s major works present therapeutic programs for these ills. La Nouvelle Heloise (1761) is a psychological novel of domesticity and romance; émile (1762) presents an educational regimen that is intended to preserve autonomy; The Social Contract or Principles of Right (1762) and Considerations on the Government of Poland (1770) present a political solution, sketching a contractarian theory of political legitimation and organization.

Abstract:
Abstract Intending to become a pastor, Søren Kierkegaard (1813–1855) studied theology at the University of Copenhagen. When he became estranged from the established Lutheran Church of Denmark, he abandoned that ambition. After scandalizing Copenhagen society by abruptly breaking his engagement to the daughter of a high-ranking civil servant, he presented himself as an extravagant and dissolute young man about town. As he found himself increasingly absorbed in his philosophic work, he retreated from society and became an eccentric recluse. Many of his books were written in a variety of pseudonyms, each in a distinctive style, suited to represent a particular perspectival point of view. In Either/Or: A Fragment of Life (1843) he described three modes of existence: that of an aesthete, a Don Juan of experience, absorbed in the appreciation of the pleasures of the present moment; that of a Kantian moralist, focused on the duties of a consistently unifiedlife; and that of a simple, sincere Christian, an authentic man of faith. In Concluding Un\scientific Postscript (1846), Kierkegaard contrasts “naturalized or rationalized religion” that connects religion with ethical life and establishes an unproblematic relation to divinity, with “transcendent” religion that finds faith unreachable by reason. Fear and Trembling (1843) and Sickness unto Death (1844) portray the haunting sense of uncertainty, anxiety and despair of the religious person who no longer believes in a rational account of the relation between God and humankind. Philosophic Fragments (1844) develops Kierkegaard’s version of Plato’s paradox: if we intuitively grasp the truths of religion, we seem not to need revelation or the mediation of Christ the Teacher? If we do not, we cannot understand revealed truth. Unlike Plato, Kierkegaard refuses to resolve the paradox.

Abstract:
Due to the global pandemic disclaimer caused by the SARS-COV-2 virus propagation, also called COVID-19, governments, institutions, and researchers have mobilized intending to try to mitigate the effects caused by the virus on society. Some approaches were proposed and applied to try to make predictions of the behavior of possible pandemics indicators. Among those methodologies, some models are data orientated, also known as data-driven, which had considerable prominence over the others. Artificial Neural Networks are a widely used model among datadriven models. In this work, we propose a novel Auto-Encoder RNA architecture. This architecture aims to forecast time series related to the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly the number of deaths. The model uses as inputs possible associated time series with the desired forecasting. In the experiments, we used the representation in time series from the number of COVID-19 cases, deaths, temperature, humidity, and the Air Quality Index (AQI) of São Paulo city in Brazil. The results show that the model has a prominent forecasting accuracy for the COVID-19 deaths time series.

Abstract:
The paper aims to analyse the main air pollutants considered responsible for most premature deaths and illnesses: particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide, and ground-level ozone. The research methodology used is based on the analysis and synthesis of information from the scientific literature on air pollution, identification of sources of air pollutants and their implications for human health. The principal research method used in the paper is content analysis. The importance of this publication is to expand and improve the content of the literature in the domain. The contributors point out that air pollution is currently the highest environmental risk affecting human health. Every year, this type of pollution causes around 400,000 premature deaths in the European Union and causes various illnesses: respiratory, strokes and lung diseases, cardiovascular, liver and blood diseases. Emissions of air pollutants are mainly the result of human actions: heating of homes, road transport, the energy sector, industry, agriculture and others in much smaller proportions. The authors' investigation revealed that, in overall terms, air quality has not improved with the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. In conclusion, the authors highlight the need for environmental policies that contribute to reducing emissions and improving air quality, intending to further safeguard human health and the environment.

Abstract:
An innovative start-up and important online course supplier, Udacity charges a subscription for course involvement, limits course recruitments, and associates straightforwardly with scholars to create courses that are devised to benefit from their MOOC platform, being thus effortlessly tailor-made and improved. Udacity produces them in its own studio, instead of disseminating content generated by universities, and has progressively shifted to corporate instruction chances, utilizing a discourse originated in increasing access to higher education. The prime concern has been setting up the infrastructure and ecosystems that will back educational enhancement. As the education participant ecosystems develop, Udacity may be better situated to clarify what features of their innovation tend to produce returns. Udacity has invested substantial amounts of money and endeavor into advancing outstanding proprietary content, and we aim to prove that its business model of producing first-rate online content and incorporating interactive learning aspects into an online course may not last as the numbers do not add up (there may be no business model to back credential-less online learning). Unfortunately, courses can require universities several hundred thousand dollars to develop, but the proportion of learners who finish a class has been quite low so far. Besides being a private platform, Udacity aims to expand a large part of its own programming, which is pretty expensive. We show that Udacity restricted its target, intending for learners that aim in-depth software instruction to move up in the tech personnel, thus concentrating on paid "nanodegree" programs devised in cooperation with high-tech corporations to train learners for hiring.

Abstract:
Abstract Handil Field is a giant mature oil and gas field situated in Mahakam Delta, East Kalimantan Indonesia. Peripheral Low Salinity Water injection was performed since 1978 with an extraordinary result. The paper is intending to describe the success story of this secondary recovery by low salinity water injection application in the peripheral of Handil field main zone, which successfully increased the oil recovery and brought down the remaining oil saturation beyond the theoretical value of residual oil saturation number. Water producer wells were drilled to produce low salinity water from shallow reservoirs 400 - 1000 m depth then it was injected to main zone reservoirs where the main accumulation of oil situated. This low salinity water reacted positively with the rock properties and in-situ fluids which was described as wettability alteration in the reservoir. It is related to initial reservoir condition, connate water saturation, rock physics and connate water salinity. This peripheral scheme then observed having the sweeping effect on top of pressure maintenance due to long period of injection. The field production performance was indicating the important reduction of residual oil saturation in some reservoirs with continuous low salinity water injection. From static Oil in Place calculation, some reservoirs have high current oil recovery up to 80%. This was proved by in situ residual oil saturation measurement which was performed in 2007 and 2011. It was indicating the low residual saturation as low as 8% - 15%. This excellent result was embraced by a progressive development plan, where water flooding with pattern and chemical injection will be performed later on. The continuation of this peripheral injection is in an on-going development with patterns injection which is called water flooding development. An important oil recovery can be achieved with a simple scheme of low salinity injection, performed in a close network injection, where the water treatment is simple yet significant oil gain was recovered. This innovation technique brings more revenue with less investment compared to chemical EOR injection.
