The late antique and early medieval Mediterranean was characterized
by wide-ranging cultural and linguistic diversity. Yet, under the
influence of Christianity, communities in the Mediterranean world
were bound together by common concepts of good rulership, which
were also shaped by Greco-Roman, Persian, Caucasian, and other
traditions. This collection of essays examines ideas of good
Christian rulership and the debates surrounding them in diverse
cultures and linguistic communities. It grants special attention to
communities on the periphery, such as the Caucasus and Nubia, and
some essays examine non-Christian concepts of good rulership to
offer a comparative perspective. As a whole, the studies in this
volume reveal not only the entanglement and affinity of communities
around the Mediterranean but also areas of conflict among
Christians and between Christians and other cultural traditions. By
gathering various specialized studies on the overarching question
of good rulership, this volume highlights the possibilities of
placing research on classical antiquity and early medieval Europe
into conversation with the study of eastern Christianity.

Patrick Golden is a student at Berkeley during the turbulent and
vibrant late 1960s. The product of working-class Jewish and
Irish-Catholic parents, he takes a huge step out of his social
comfort zone when he makes the move to the storied walls of the Ivy
League. Soon he s surrounded by old-moneyed aristocrats as he joins
his affluent and socially well-connected college roommate, Charles
Comstock, at Harvard in the summer of 1968. At Harvard, Patrick
meets Morgan Thackeray, a stunningly beautiful and free-spirited
coed from one of Boston s oldest, wealthiest, and stodgiest
families. Despite her bigoted father s virulent objections and
threats, their romance blooms until it is torn apart by the dark
secret Morgan must keep from Patrick. To protect him, she
disappears, leaving his heart in tatters without an explanation or
even a good-bye. Forty-one years later, Patrick finds himself back
in Boston on sad business the funeral of his old college roommate,
Charles. In a twist he could never have predicted, he reconnects
with his long-lost love. After decades of doubt and confusion, he s
about to learn her secret and his life will be dramatically altered
by her confession. Vividly describing Harvard, Berkeley, and San
Francisco as they were in the late 1960s, No Fortunate Son
recreates the sights, sounds, mood, and culture that defined this
colorfully tumultuous and politically pivotal era. Barbara Keer,
Editor of Chicago Splash Magazine, Splash Magazines Worldwide It
isn t often that I find a book I can t put down and feel a loss
when I finish because the characters have become my friends. No
Fortunate Son is that kind of book.I found the book interesting in
several ways: as a first novel, as an example both of a self
published book and re-careering. Patrick Golden, the protaganist,
has a very different story. Glancing by chance at the obituary
section which until then had been concealed from view, he gasped
when a photograph of his friend, Charles Comstock, leaped at him
from the page. Patrick lives near San Francisco and Charles died in
Boston. And so begins a tale that is filled with intrigue as it
weaves it s way through the period of the Viet Nam War, one
shocking event following the next and the young people trying to
find their lives in the midst of it all. The stories of that time
come vividly to life. Thank you.

AMERICA-A PURPOSE - DRIVEN NATION ONE NATION UNITED ONE GOD JEHOVAH
ONE LAW BIBLICAL Freedom of Religion The founding of America was
Providential, not accidental. America was founded on purpose for a
purpose-freedom to worship as people please. Christianity is the
faith that gave birth to freedom of religion. Because of this
spiritual heritage, America is known around the world for freedom
the Bill of Rights ensures for all citizens, beginning with
religious tolerance. Reversing Current Secular Trends What
secularists are doing today is repressive to the First Amendment
and offensive to Christians. The secularist agenda to enact "Hate
Crimes" laws designed contrary to biblical principles is a
destructive form of government opposing the consent of the
governed. Ronald Reagan, hero of conservatives, said, "The
frustrating thing is that those who are attacking religion claim
they are doing it in the name of tolerance. Question: Isn't the
real truth that they are intolerant of religion?" Reversing the
current trend of secularization in American society involves making
two essential changes: (1) quashing the unfriendly secularist war
on faith; and (2) overturning activist Courts which limit
Judeo-Christian expression in the public arena. Real Problems-Real
Solutions This book features a Contract with Conservatives that
offers real solutions to the vital issues "we the people" must come
to grips with. Like German reformer Martin Luther in October of
1517, Pantana nails 95 theses of conservatism on the false walls,
erected by secularists, which separate church from state. History
is too filled with examples of this pattern for it to be ignored.
The silent majority must let its voice be heard loud and clear at
the ballot box in the 2008 election. For more information on the 95

Currently, there are no textbooks on drug product manufacturing
technology transfer that incorporate the latest regulatory
expectations. Recent guidance from regulatory bodies such as the US
FDA, EMEA, WHO, and PIC/S has adopted the ICH Lifecycle approach
harmonizing concepts across regulatory guidance. This allows
organizations to align their technology transfer activities for all
regulated markets. However, there is a need for consensus and
direction in approaching technology transfer, particularly in
understanding how to manage the scale-up effects to ensure
regulatory compliance. This textbook offers technology transfer
solutions and guidance to the pharmaceutical industry. The chapters
provide a systematic understanding of applying the technology
transfer concepts in pharmaceutical manufacturing, promoting
standardization within the industry. Since Stage 1b is not
specified in detail within the regulations, pharmaceutical
organizations are left to determine the requirements of the stage.
The need to justify the methodologies and utilization of sound
science makes it more demanding. The textbook’s authors provide
innovative solutions for technology transfer challenges, making it
a comprehensive reference document. The approaches can be applied
to both small-molecule and large-molecule drug product
manufacturing segments, addressing the unmet needs of the industry.
Preaching formed one of the primary, regular avenues of
communication between ecclesiastical elites and a wide range of
society. Clergy used homilies to spread knowledge of complex
theological debates prevalent in late antique Christian discourse.
Some sermons even offer glimpses into the locations in which
communities gathered to hear orators preach. Although homilies
survive in greater number than most other types of literature, most
do not specify the setting of their initial delivery, dating, and
authorship. Preaching Christology in the Roman Near East addresses
how we can best contextualize sermons devoid of such information.
The first chapter develops a methodology for approaching homilies
that draws on a broader understanding of audience as both the
physical audience and the readership of sermons. The remaining
chapters offer a case study on the renowned Syriac preacher Jacob
of Serugh (c. 451-521) whose metrical homilies form one of the
largest sermon collections in any language from late antiquity. His
letters connect him to a previously little-known Christological
debate over the language of the miracles and sufferings of Christ
through his correspondence with a monastery, a Roman military
officer, and a Christian community in South Arabia. He uses this
language in homilies on the Council of Chalcedon, on Christian
doctrine, and on biblical exegesis. An analysis of these sermons
demonstrates that he communicated miaphysite Christology to both
elite reading communities as well as ordinary audiences. Philip
Michael Forness provides a new methodology for working with late
antique sermons and discloses the range of society that received
complex theological teachings through preaching.
