Power of Attorney of Colonel John Butler for Robert Hamilton and Robert Addison, January 4,1797

John Butler (1728-1796) was originally from Connecticut but settled with his family in the Mohawk valley of New York around 1742. His father was a Captain in the British army and well acquainted with William Johnson (superintendent of Northern Indians). Butler impressed Johnson with his aptitude for Indian languages and diplomacy. He began to work with Johnson in 1755, and received several promotions in the department, until his apparent retirement in the early 1770s. At the onset of the Revolutionary War in 1775, Butler relocated to Canada to join the British forces, settling in Niagara. During the War, Butler was instrumental in maintaining the alliance with the Indians. After the War, Butler became prominent in local affairs in Niagara, but failed to secure any important offices when the province of Upper Canada was formed in 1792. In an effort to recoup some of the financial losses his family suffered during the War, Butler illegally attempted to supply trade goods to the Indian department with his son Andrew, his nephew Walter Butler Sheehan, and Samuel Street, a Niagara merchant.

Multiculturalismo y consenso: una aproximación desde el liberalismo político de John Rawls

La presente tesis gravita en torno a la siguiente pregunta: ¿cómo puede ser el liberalismo político una alternativa frente a los desafíos del multiculturalismo? La respuesta se presenta a partir de tres capítulos: en el primero se especifica la estructura y contenido del liberalismo político; en el segundo se caracterizan los desafíos del multiculturalismo en Francia, a partir del asunto del velo islámico y las consideraciones de los actores involucrados; en el tercero se analizan los argumentos y opiniones sobre el asunto del velo en Francia, con base en las categorías específicas del liberalismo político, especialmente el consenso traslapado. Se concluye que las posibilidades de consenso dependen del apego que tengan los ciudadanos hacia ciertos valores propios de una concepción política de la justicia, de la capacidad para apartarse de su forma particular de ver el mundo (doctrina comprensiva) en las discusiones públicas, así como de la voluntad que tengan los individuos para ser razonables y respetar las directivas de indagación en las discusiones políticas.

High-performance liquid chromatographic separation and identification of polyphenolic compounds from the infusion of Davilla elliptica St. Hill

The isolation of polyphenolic compounds from an infusion of the Brazilian plant Davilla elliptica (Dilleniaceae), used as tea by virtue of its digestive properties, is described. An improved preparative HPLC method was used in order to isolate pure polyphenols from the complex mixture. Liquid-liquid extraction and solid-phase extraction were employed to minimise the interference of polymeric compounds and to provide an enriched fraction of the compounds of interest. The identification of the isolated compounds was performed using analytical HPLC as well as direct injection electrospray ionisation ion trap tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-IT-MS/MS). The high flavonoid content suggests that D. elliptica may be a promising source of compounds to produce natural phytomedicines. Copyright (C) 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
