Abstract:
Abstract This article marshals ancient legal evidence to show that Nephi’s slaying of Laban should be understood as a protected manslaughter rather than a criminal homicide. The biblical law of murder demanded a higher level of premeditation and hostility than Nephi exhibited or modern law requires. It is argued that Exodus 21:13 protected more than accidental slayings or unconscious acts, particularly where God was seen as having delivered the victim into the slayer’s hand. Various rationales for Nephi’s killing of Laban are explored, including ancient views on surrendering one person for the benefit of a whole community. Other factors within the Book of Mormon as well as in Moses’ killing of the Egyptian in Exodus 2 corroborate the conclusion that Nephi did not commit the equivalent of a first-degree murder under the laws of his day.

Abstract:
This article explains how nanomechanics can be used to treat metastatic cancer. Metastatic cancers are the cancers that spread from the organ in which they originated to other organs. Indeed, the rate at which metastatic cancers, especially those that grow in the lungs, liver, and brain, are cured remains abysmally low and they are responsible for the vast majority of cancer deaths. Nanodrugs in current clinical use have extended the lives of many metastatic patients on the order of weeks to months. The nanodrugs use nanoparticle materials such as liposomes and albumin to be injected into the bloodstream. These nanoparticles can also be added with a decoration of biomolecular recognition agents on the surfaces, such as antibodies that recognize cancer specifically. A new, multifunctional therapeutic agent (MSV-pX) has also been demonstrated by researchers which completely cured about 50 percent of animals with breast cancers, metastatic to the lungs, in several different mouse models.

Abstract:
This dissertation is presented in two parts. The first part is a look at the composer-conductor through the composition, preparation, rehearsal, and performance of the work, The Slaying of the Innocents. The second part is an analysis of the insights each of the two disciplines provides the other, and the influences each may have on the other. Although the dissertation represents the basic and larger concepts of each composer-conductor, it is not intended to represent all thoughts of all composer-conductors, for these would be different for each individual.The major part of the text for the The Slaying of the Innocents is taken from the medieval miracle play, Herod and the Slaying of the Innocents. This play was originally written as a liturgical drama, and was later set to music as a music-drama. The identities of the playwrite and composer are unknown. However, three transcriptions of the music drama were found and used as text references for this dissertation. These transcriptions or editions are by Fletcher Collins Jr., Terence Bailey, and Noah Greenburg and William L. Smoldon. Other texts which were used in preparing this work include: parts of the Dies Irae sequence from the text and tune of the Coventry Carol.The Slaying of the Innocents, is composed for three choirs of mixed voices, a double brass quintet, a handbell choir, an organ, and a tenor soloist. Choir I sings primarily in English, is accompanied by the double brass quintet and organ, and conveys the major part of the story Choir II sings primarily in Latin, is accompanied by the handbell choir, and generally comments on the story. Choir III participates only in the final movement, singing the Coventry Carol in English. The solo tenor represents Herod, king of the Jews. He sings exclusively in English and shares the story line with Choir I.The Slaying of the Innocents provides the background to discuss the relationship between composition and conducting. Chapter one examines the term composer-conductor. This definition provides a reference for the second chapter, which is a brief but representative history of the composer-conductor and his changing function throughout history. The third chapter examines the composer-conductor from the conducting discipline, and how it might influence composing. These insights include: performing forces, acoustics, Requiem Mass, a setting of the Ave Maris Stella text, and the accessibility of the music, and audience factors. Chapter three discusses these insights in general and as they pertain to the composition of The Slaying of the Innocents,. The fourth chapter examines the composer-conductor from the composing discipline, and how it might influence conducting. These insights include: placement of performing forces, appropriate tempi, balance considerations, and a composer's understanding of the score. Chapter four presents these insights in general and as they pertain to the preparation, rehearsal, and performance of The Slaying of the Innocents. Chapter four also presents an interpretation of the work from the perspective of the composer. Obviously, some of the concepts discussed in both chapters three and four would normally fall into the disciplines of both the composer and the conductor. It is interesting, however, to examine the two perspectives and how the perspective of one discipline influences the perspective and performance of the other.

Abstract:
The opioid crisis has reached unprecedented levels with the rise in deaths rising fivefold from 2001. The crisis’ has effected many communities throughout the United States and requires deep intervention in order to minimize the number of individuals dying from opioids. The heart of the problem lies in prescription opioids and heroin, one cannot talk about prescription opioids without speaking of the dangers of heroin. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the results of state and federal policies in handling the epidemic and recognizing the need for a comprehensive, multi-tiered strategy for grappling with the crisis. This paper was divided into four sections: The Nature of the Problem, Education, Supply Reduction and Treatment of Addicts and Death Prevention. The results were compiled by analyzing government statistics and peer-reviewed journals for solutions to the larger questions of how did the epidemic start, what methods can minimize illicit drug use and how do we restrict the supply of prescription opioids and heroin effectively while creating accessible treatment for individuals suffering from pain and/or addiction? The results concluded that creating educational programs based around the dangers of opioids and treatment options, while not definitive, can reduce the number of individuals suffering from addiction by allowing them to abstain from illicit drug use. This requires an immense number of state and federal resources to be dedicated to the epidemic, but considering that thousands are dying from it every year, there needs to considerable funding, energy and effort expended on grappling with the crisis.

Abstract:
This dissertation argues that Catholic social thought was a central component of post-1945 West European reconstruction: it simultaneously provided a vocabulary for a post-fascist order, brought Catholics into coalition with liberals and socialists, and inspired much of the social policy of the new republics. This was, to many, a shocking outcome, as Catholics a few decades earlier had been largely opposed to the democratic Versailles order. Their continent-wide transition to democracy has yet to be convincingly explained. The answer, I argue, should be sought at the level of social thought. Following a number of anthropologists and political scientists, I suggest that modern governance is related far more closely to social theory, and social science, than it is to political theory, narrowly understood. Catholics lacked a genuine political theory, but they did not lack a sociology--and it is the latter that is required to govern a modern state. Following this insight, my research uncovered the forgotten universe of Catholic social science, showing how it was produced in the interwar years and put into practice after 1945. I trace three figures as exemplars of three different regional traditions: Jacques Maritain (France), Waldemar Gurian (Germany), and Eugen Kogon (Austria). Their stories of exile, incarceration, and furious intellectual production are paradigmatic of Europe's tragic century. Each of them began on the authoritarian right wing, suffered at the hands of Nazism, and emerged after 1945 as leading lights of the Christian Democratic culture that remade Western Europe. The dissertation traces their stories in deep context as a way to reconstruct the social-scientific, transnational imagination of interwar Catholicism. This methodology allows us to see how European Catholics, faced with interwar crisis, developed theories of economic growth and political order that were just as sophisticated as anything on offer from socialists or liberals. In the end, it was more influential as well--the European welfare state, after all, was born under Catholic auspices. The research contained in this dissertation draws on research from over a dozen archives and more than seventy periodicals and newspapers. This source base allows for a reconstruction of the transnational network of Catholic knowledge production across, primarily, France, Germany, and Austria, but also into Switzerland, Italy, Iberia, and the Atlantic World more broadly.

Abstract:
The serpent or dragon and its fight with the dragonslayer is a traditional mythological and literary motif. It is also common for a polemical context, when an adversary — a schismatic, a heretic, a political opponent — is compared to a poisonous or fire-breathing monster. Among the many eschatological images that George of Trebizond cites in his dramatic characteristic of Plato and the Platonists in Comparatio philosophorum Aristotelis et Platonis (1458), there is also a comparison of Platonic teachings with a serpent, a dragon, or the many-headed Hydra. This is not a coincidence: George draws quite obvious parallels between the triumph of Platonism (which he hopes to prevent) and the triumph of the Antichrist, who is often described as dragon or associated with a snake; the association with the eloquent and treacherous serpent is also transparent. The opponents of George of Trebizond: Basilios Bessarion, Theodore Gaza, Niccolò Perotti, Domitio Calderini, — ignore George’s “eschatological” accusations. However, they also resort to the image of a dragon, snake, or chimera, applying it to George himself — in their writings, the struggle with his “serpentine tongue” and “all-besmearing infectious breath” turns into a kind of collective dragon slaying. The article discusses examples of comparison with a serpent/dragon in George of Trebizond, Niccolò Perotti, and Domitio Calderini’s writings, their context, and various interpretations of serpent/dragon motif.
