description: The growing recognition that first-generation biofuels from food crops and oil seeds are inadequate has spurred global discussions on sustainable renewable energy production. This concern has increased interest in second-generation biofuels from non-food feedstocks, such as algae. Azolla is identified as a highly promising macroalgae for the production of biodiesel. This study investigates the efficiency of lipid extraction and biodiesel quality from Azolla, a promising macroalgae. Characterization techniques including GC-MS (Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry), FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), and NMR 1H and 13C (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectroscopy were employed. The findings show that the kinematic viscosity and flash point of the biodiesel are 4.32 mm2/s at 40 °C and 165 °C, respectively. Trace element analysis revealed no major environmental concerns. Overall, the biodiesel produced from Azolla demonstrates potential as a sustainable and locally supplied substitute for diesel fuel in utility vehicles.

description: The study examined the extraction of bio-oil from pumpkin seed and compared the optimization of the production of Fatty acid ethyl ester (FAEE) via the transesterification process using Response Surface Methodology (RSM), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN). This research uniquely highlights the utilization of pumpkin seed oil, a non-edible and sustainable feedstock, and combines RSM and ANN methodologies to enhance the precision of biodiesel optimization. The transesterification experiment was conducted at 60 min reaction time under varying temperature ranges, catalyst weight, stirrer speed, and ethanol-oil molar ratio. The RSM optimized conditions for maximum production were determined to be a 1.3% catalyst concentration, 6:1 ethanol-to-oil molar ratio, 50 °C temperature, and 550 rpm stirrer speed, resulting in a 90% biodiesel yield. The statistical evaluation metrics confirmed the neural network predictions were compromised to 80% yield due to limitations such as insufficient data size and the inherent complexity of the ANN model. The biofuel produced satisfied ASTM specifications peculiar to sustainable environmental applications. The mechanistic parameters revealed variations in thermodynamic stability and feasibility across reaction orders (zero, pseudo-first, and pseudo-second), emphasizing the temperature-dependent effects of the transesterification kinetic pathway on yield, design, and efficiency.

1. Sanctus Ioannes, non euangelista, sed baptista, missus est ante faciem Christi praeparare uias eius.

'Saint John, not the Evangelist but the Baptist, was sent before the face of Christ to prepare his ways.'

In what follows Augustine presents John the Baptist as Christ's forerunner and an example of humility. His uniqueness is emphasised by the fact that he is the only saint whose earthly birthday the Church celebrates, whereas there are many servants of God whose martyrdom is celebrated.

description: Concerns over climate change and resource usage have increased interest in the use of prairie biomass as a form of alternative energy. In this study, we examined productivity and weed resistance in four potential prairie biomass feedstocks with varying diversity (a switchgrass monoculture; a 5-species mixture of C4 grasses; a 16-species mixture of C4 grasses, forbs and legumes; and a 32-species mixture of C4 grasses, C3 grasses, forbs, and legumes) over a 10-year period. Each feedstock was specifically designed for high productivity. Four replicate production-scale (0.33–0.56 ha) plots were planted of each feedstock on three soil types. Productivity was assessed by hand-harvesting vegetation each year. Feedstocks had similar productivity over the study period (6.4–7.5 Mg·ha−1·year−1); however, the relative ranking of the four feedstocks differed across soil types. The 32-species feedstock had the highest interannual variation in biomass production. The switchgrass monoculture had the highest percentage of weed (unseeded species) biomass, and this percentage increased dramatically over the study period. The results indicate that high-diversity prairie biomass feedstocks are productive across a range of soil types but species composition should be specifically tailored to site conditions to maximize long-term productivity and resistance to weed invasion.

description: With direct implications for policy and decision-making, this research aimed to comparatively characterize the relationship between the institutional and macro-environmental profiles and the bioethanol fuel market in Brazil and the USA. For this purpose, descriptive and deductive analyses were carried out using secondary documentary and bibliographic data. The institutional profile is based on the Institution-Based View approach, and the macro-environmental profile is based on the PESTEL framework. The results showed that, regardless of whether the country is developed or developing, institutions (mainly government effectiveness, corruption, political stability, and economic freedom) have a strong relationship with the bioethanol fuel market. The USA offers a more conducive, solid, and stable institutional environment for the growth of new, innovative, and challenging ventures, such as biofuels and renewable energy. The macro-environment also revealed factors that directly influence bioethanol. It is concluded that in addition to the natural production conditions, the institutional environment and the macro-environment represent a dominant force in developing the bioethanol fuel market, and public and private decision-makers must give it due importance.

description: Die Diskussion um die Gestaltung und Weiterentwicklung des Gesundheitssystems ist geprägt von einigen Annahmen über die Kosten- und Einnahmenentwicklung, die der Präzisierung bedürfen. Im vorliegenden Beitrag werden solche Annahmen auf ihre Stichhaltigkeit überprüft, beispielsweise unter dem Gesichtspunkt, welche empirische Faktenlage tatsächlich hinter der als ‚Kostenexplosion‘ diskutierten Ausgabenentwicklung steht. Wie entwickelte sich beispielsweise der Anteil, den Arbeitgeber, Arbeitnehmer sowie schließlich die Kranken selbst an den Kosten tragen? Zugleich werden Zusammenhänge problematisiert, die in den Diskussionen häufig unreflektiert unterstellt werden: In welchem Zusammenhang steht etwa die Ausgabenentwicklung mit der demographischen Entwicklung? Einige der Annahmen erweisen sich als fragwürdig, andere als der Differenzierung bedürftig. Insgesamt verweist der Beitrag auf erhebliche Spielräume für die politische und soziale Gestaltung, mithin darauf, dass die Gesundheitsversorgung nicht als Ensemble von Sachzwängen zu interpretieren ist, sondern als politische Herausforderung.

description: Zusammenfassung
Veränderte Generationen- und Geschlechterverhältnisse bringen neue Risiken der Lebensführung mit sich. Wirtschafts-, Sozial- und Gesellschaftspolitik brauchen daher eine sozialwissenschaftlich fundierte und ethisch gehaltvolle Leitidee zur Orientierung notwendiger Reformen für alle Handlungsfelder, die Lebensverläufe und Handlungsmuster beeinflussen. Das Prinzip der "Lebenslauforientierung" kann, so die These, ein solches Orientierungsangebot enthalten. Sozialwissenschaftliche Ansätze der Lebenslaufpolitik aufgreifend, werden Ansätze zur Rezeption einer Lebenslaufperspektive in der christlichen Sozialethik ausgewiesen und deren normativer Gehalt analysiert. Ziel ist es, die These zu plausibilisieren, eine Politik der Verantwortungsermöglichung bilde das sozialethische Korrelat zu einer sozialwissenschaftlich fundierten Lebenslaufpolitik, und sei als Desiderat für eine „Gesellschaft des langen Lebens“ geltend zu machen.

Abstract
The change of gender and generation relations carries new risks for life choices. Economic, social, and societal politics therefore need a substantive ethical guiding principle grounded in social science to inform necessary reforms in all fields of action that bear on life courses and action patterns. The thesis here is that the principle of »life course orientation« may offer such a guideline. Seizing on social-scientific approaches to life-course politics, beginnings of an adoption of life-course perspectives in Christian social ethics are documented and their normative contents analysed. The aim here is to make plausible the thesis that a politics of enabling responsibility forms the socio-ethical correlate of social-scientifically grounded life-course politics and is most desirable for a long-life society.

description: The current study describes the synthesis of a novel bifunctional heterogeneous catalyst that demonstrates exceptional performance and sustainability for the valorization of waste cooking oil into biofuel. The acid-base catalyst was described by using different analytical techniques, such as Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmet-Teller Analysis (BET), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDX). The composition of biofuel was determined by using Gas Chromatography- Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and FTIR. The novel catalyst comprised a synergistic combination of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide, and tungstophosphoric acid, exhibiting a remarkably high surface area of 155.89 m2/g due to its meticulously engineered porous structure. SEM micrographs unveiled a porous network structure composed of spherical particles, further substantiating the catalyst’s potential for efficient biodiesel synthesis. Under optimal conditions, the catalyst demonstrated a 93.6% conversion of waste cooking oil to a diverse biodiesel product rich in saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acid methyl esters, which was validated by rigorous characterization. Notably, this catalytic approach not only enhances a waste feedstock but also employs a reusable, cost-effective catalyst, rendering it an environmentally benign and economically viable process.

description: Alternative energy sources are crucial because of rising energy demand and pollution concerns. Fusel oil is a by-product of ethanol distillation from molasses. This study compares the combustion characteristics, performance, and emissions of a 1.8 L turbocharged four-cylinder, direct-injection, spark-ignition engine using fusel–gasoline blends. A steady-state experiment with a constant engine speed of 2000 rpm and a throttle load of 40% was carried out. Four samples were tested: pure gasoline and 10%, 20%, and 30% fusel oil blends, referred to as F0, F10, F20, and F30, respectively. Results showed that fusel oil blends increased brake specific fuel consumption by 5–20% compared to pure gasoline. The combustion behavior, including in-cylinder pressure, rate of heat release, rate of pressure rise, and mass fraction burn, was lower by 2–5% and exhibited an earlier crank angle degree by 2–3 compared to pure gasoline. Due to differences in attributes and oxygen content, the brake thermal efficiency of combustion dropped 13–16% compared to pure gasoline. The blends emitted 120–90 ppm less hydrocarbon and 0.3–0.5% more carbon monoxide than pure gasoline did. In summary, fusel oil can be blended with gasoline, significantly impacting turbocharged gasoline direct-injection engine performance.

[In natali Ioannis Baptistae

'On the birthday of John the Baptist']

1. Quem diem celebramus hodiernum uobis dici non opus est, quia omnes, cum euangelium legeretur, audistis. Hodie accepimus sanctum Ioannem Domini praecursorem, sterilis filium nuntiantem uirginis filium, sed tamen seruum nuntiantem Dominum.

'There is no need for you to be told what day we are celebrating today, because you all heard, when the gospel was read. Today we have welcomed Saint John, the forerunner of the Lord, the son of a barren woman announcing the son of virgin, but still the servant announcing the Lord.'

In what follows Augustine reflects of the birth of John the Baptist and that of Christ.

description: This study examined the influence of incorporating varying concentrations of multi-element oxide nanoparticles into diesel fuel on the combustion, performance, and emission parameters of a single-cylinder diesel engine. The findings revealed that the addition of nanoparticles led to better outcomes than the use of pure diesel. Specifically, the brake thermal efficiency increased, and the brake-specific fuel consumption values decreased, when nanoparticles were present. In addition, although carbon monoxide, hydrocarbon, nitrogen oxide and smoke emissions decreased, carbon dioxide emissions increased. All the experimental data were statistically validated, and seven mathematical models were developed using response surface methodology in the second stage. The R2 values of all models varied between 87.87 and 99.92, indicating statistically significant results. By analyzing all the results parameters, an optimum nanoparticle ratio of 100 ppm at full engine load, and an optimal brake mean effective pressure value of1.58 were determined. The aim of this study was to provide guidance to both academic and industrial users in future research on internal combustion engines. The results offer valuable insights into the potential benefits of incorporating multi-element oxide nanoparticles into diesel fuel to improve engine performance and reduce emissions.
E02427: Gregory of Tours, in his Histories (10.31), recounts how *Martin (ascetic and bishop of Tours, ob. 397, S00050) performed miracles during his lifetime and after his death: he raised three men. He translated the body of *Gatianus (first bishop of Tours, S01175) and placed it beside the tomb of *Litorius (bishop of Tours, ob. 370/371, S01214) in the church of Litorius in Tours. He built the church of the Apostles *Peter and *Paul (S00036 and S00008) at the monastery of Marmoutier in the Touraine. Sulpiciius Severus wrote his Life and many miracles happen at his grave. Written in Latin in Tours (north-west Gaul), 591/594.

Sanctus Martinus fecitque multa signa in populos, ita ut ante episcopatum duos suscitaret mortuos, post episcopatum autem unum tantummodo suscitavit. Hic transtulit corpus beati Catiani sepelivitque eum iuxta sepulchrum sancti Litorii in illa nominis sui praefata basilica.

'Saint Martin, performed many miracles among the people: before he was made Bishop he raised two men from the dead, but after his consecration he raised only one. He translated the body of Saint Gatianus and buried Him beside the tomb of Saint Litorius, in the church named after this latter.'

...

Consummato ergo praesentis vitae cursu, obiit apud Condatensim vicum urbis suae anno LXXXI. aetatis. De quo vico navigio sublatus, Turonus est sepultus in loco, quo nunc adoratur sepulchrum eius. De cuius vita tres a Severo Sulpicio libros conscriptos legimus. Sed et praesenti tempore multis se virtutibus declarat. In monasterio vero qui nunc Maior dicitur basilicam in honore sanctorum apostolorum Petri et Pauli aedificavit.

'When his earthly course was run, he died in Candes, a village in his own diocese, in his eighty-first year. From that village he was carried by boat and buried in Tours on the spot where his tomb is now venerated. I have read a life of Saint Martin in three books written by Sulpicius Severus. He manifests himself still today by many miracles. In the monastery now called the Great he built a church in honour of the Apostles Saint Peter and Saint Paul.'

description: Augustine of Hippo, Sermon 293A (Sermo Dolbeau 3)

Augustine opens the sermon saying that it was God's decision to make him speak today to this congregation.

2. Vnde ergo loquamur hodie, nisi de illo cuius natalis est hodie? Iohannes ergo sanctus natus de sterili, praecursor domini nati de uirgine, factus est domini sui salutator ex utero, adnuntiator post uterum ... Cum ergo multos praecones ante se miserit Dominus, quid tantum iste meruit, quid excellentiae amplius habuit, cuius natalis nobis hodie commendatur? Nam neque hoc sine signo cuiusdam magnitudinis est, ut non lateat dies natalis eius, sicut non latet dies natalis Domini eius. Alii prophetae quando nati fuerint ignoramus; de Iohanne nescire non licuit.

'So what else should we talk about today, but about the person whose birthday (natalis) it is? So Saint John, born of a barren woman as the forerunner of the Lord who was born of a virgin, was to greet his Lord from the womb, to proclaim him after leaving the womb ... So considering that the Lord had sent many heralds before him, what was the extra special merit of this man, whose birthday is being brought to our notice today; what altogether superior excellence was to be found in him? I mean, even the fact that his birthday is not unknown to us, just as his Lord's birthday is not unknown to us, is a sign of some special greatness. When other prophets were born we don't know; about John we have not been allowed to remain in ignorance.'

In what follows Augustine comments upon the relation between Christ and John the Baptist and shows John as an example of humility, and reflects on the issue of rebaptism.
