During Mardi Gras 1973, Stewart Butler (1930-2020) fell in love with Alfred Doolittle―a wealthy socialite and schizophrenic from San Francisco. Their relationship was an improbable love story that changed the course of LGBTQ+ history. With Doolittle’s money, Butler was able to retire and devote his life to political activism in the cause of queer liberation. A survivor of the horrific Up Stairs Lounge arson, Butler was a founding member of the first statewide lesbian and gay rights organization in Louisiana and an early champion for transgender rights, playing a key role in the eight-year struggle to persuade PFLAG to become the first national LGBTQ+ organization to include trans people in its mission statement.

Free Download Thomas Vietor, "Life Cycle Design & Engineering of Lightweight Multi-Material Automotive Body Parts: Results from the BMBF sponsored col"
English | ISBN: 3662652722 | 2023 | 144 pages | EPUB | 25 MB
This book presents the final report of the collaborative research project "MultiMaK2": MultiMaK2 contributed to the development of multi-material component concepts in large-scale automotive production. Whithin the project new methods in conceptual design of lightweight components were developed at the example of roof cross member and transmission tunnels. A concurrent Life Cycle Design & Engineering approach led to identifying eco- and cost efficient component alternatives. This includes evaluation tools for the concepts’ full life cycle. Further, methods to integrate that knowledge into automotive engineering processes have been established based on principles of visual analytics. That brings forward a tight integration of data, engineering models and results visualization towards an informed knowledge building across disciplines. MultiMaK2 also compiled and structured design guidelines within a knowledge management system. All methods and tools have been embedded within the Life Cycle Design & Engineering Lab in the Open Hybrid LabFactory.

At the time of his death in January 2017, Derek Parfit was widely regarded among philosophers as the best and most important moral philosopher in well over a century. He was also both legendarily eccentric and legendarily generous. In his later years he became increasingly reclusive in his obsessive struggle to develop his ideas and arguments about an extensive set of philosophical problems before he died. His perfectionism, meticulous concern for the truth, and openness to being proved wrong prevented him from being satisfied until he had a convincing response to every possible objection to the views he sought to defend.
