This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of Travels From New-Hampshire to Caratuck, on the Continent of North-America This did greatly Alarm the Independent Preachers at Boston. Whereupon Mr. Increase Mather, one of the chief of them, was set on Work to Print against my Sermon, as accordingly he did, and Published a small Treatise against the said six Rules, wherein he laboured to prove them all false and contrary to Scripture, but did not say any thing against the Body of my Sermon. And not long after, I Printed a Treatise in Vindication of these Six Rules, in answer to his, wherein I shewed the invalidity of his objections against them. This I had Printed at New York, the Printer at Boston not daring to Print it, lest he should give offence to the Independent Preachers there. After it was Printed, the printed Copies of it were sent to Boston, and dispersed both over New-England and the other parts of North America. June 21, Sunday. I preached a second Sermon at the Queens Chappel, on Rom. 10. 6, 7, 8, 9. June 28, Sunday. The Reverend Mr. John Talbot, who had been Chaplain in the Centurion, Preached there. By the advice of my good Friends at Boston, and especially of Colonel Joseph Dudley, Governour of Boston Colony, I chose the abovenamed Mr. John Talbot to be my Assistant and Associate in my Missionary Travels and Services, he having freely and kindly offered himself, and whom I freely and kindly received, and with the first occasion I wrote to the Society, praying them, to allow of him to be my Fellow-Companion and Associate in Travels, &c., which they accordingly did, and indeed Divine Providence did well order it, for he proved a very loving and faithful Associate to me, and was very helpful to me in all respect, and was well approved and esteemed every where, both with respect to his Preaching and Living, in the several places where we Travelled. July 1, Wednesday. I went from Boston to Cambridge in New-England, accompanied with my associate Mr. Talbot, and Mr. Bridge abovenamed, and I was present at the Commencement, which was that very day: and having heard Mr. Samuel Willard, President of the College, at the said Commencement maintain some Assertions that seemed to me very unsound, the next day I writ a Letter to him in Latin, shewing my great dislike of those his assertions, and after some days I sent it to him; after this, at the request of some there, I put it into English, and had it Printed at New York, and dispersed into many other places of America, as well as of New England. The Assertions abovenamed of the said Mr. Samuel Willard, that seemed to me very unsound, were these: I. That the Fall of Adam, by virtue of God's Decree, was necessary. II. That every free act of the Reasonable Creature is determined by God, so that whatever the Reasonable Creature acteth freely, it acteth the same necessarily. Not long after my Letter to him was Published and dispersed, he Printed a reply to it, in a small Treatise containing about four Sheets, where notwithstanding his many shufflings, and seeming to disown the charge, he very roundly and plainly not only asserts all that I had charged on him, but much more, as appears from his express Words, Page 50 of the said Reply, Where he saith, Nor shall I part with my opinion? viz. that the Origine and Cause of the necessity of the first Sin is more to be derived from God, than from Man himself.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of a Tour Through Connecticut, Massachusetts, New-York: The North Part of Pennsylvania and Ohio, Including a Year's Residence in That Part of the State of Ohio, Styled New Connecticut, or Western Reserve It may be thought necessary for me to give the public some reasons for writing, and especially for publishing the following sheets The motives which induced me to write the observations and remarks which I have made, was, primarily to gratify my friends, with what I conceive to be a true and just account of the places through which I passed, and of those in which I, for a time resided; and secondly to impress them more strongly upon my own mind. The following pages were not, at first, designed to come before the public; but upon reflection, it appeared to me a duty incumbent upon me, to give them publicity, in order, in some measure, to undeceive the community, respecting a portion of the Western country, which has been represented as an earthly Paradise, where every thing necessary, every thing convenient, and almost every thing which is considered as a luxury, might be had almost without care, labour or exertion.

Book Submarine Mass Movements and Their Consequences

Download or read book Submarine Mass Movements and Their Consequences written by Yasuhiro Yamada and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-13 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Submarine mass movements represent major offshore geohazards due to their destructive and tsunami-generation potential. This potential poses a threat to human life as well as to coastal, nearshore and offshore engineering structures. Recent examples of catastrophic submarine landslide events that affected human populations (including tsunamis) are numerous; e.g., Nice airport in 1979, Papua-New Guinea in 1998, Stromboli in 2002, Finneidfjord in 1996, and the 2006 and 2009 failures in the submarine cable network around Taiwan. The Great East Japan Earthquake in March 2011 also generated submarine landslides that may have amplified effects of the devastating tsunami. Given that 30% of the World’s population live within 60 km of the coast, the hazard posed by submarine landslides is expected to grow as global sea level rises. This elevated awareness of the need for better understanding of submarine landslides is coupled with great advances in submarine mapping, sampling and monitoring technologies. Laboratory analogue and numerical modeling capabilities have also developed significantly of late. Multibeam sonar, 3D seismic reflection, and remote and autonomous underwater vehicle technologies provide hitherto unparalleled imagery of the geology beneath the oceans, permitting investigation of submarine landslide deposits in great detail. Increased and new access to drilling, coring, in situ measurements and monitoring devices allows for ground-thruth of geophysical data and provides access to samples for geotechnical laboratory experiments and information on in situ strength and effective stress conditions of underwater slopes susceptible to fail. Great advances in numerical simulation techniques of submarine landslide kinematics and tsunami propagation, particularly since the 2004 Sumatra tsunami, have also lead to increased understanding and predictability of submarine landslide consequences. This volume consists of the latest scientific research by international experts in geological, geophysical, engineering and environmental aspects of submarine mass failure, focused on understanding the full spectrum of challenges presented by submarine mass movements and their consequences.
