This study indicates valuable contributions of narrative criticism and rhetorical criticism. Together with the traditional historical-critical approach, these methods can help us toward an interpretation that lets us better understand the purpose and the function of the gospel-story. One purpose is for it to function as an argument in favour of the standpoint that Jesus is the Son of God, the Mess

Atmospheric models are used both to assist in the retrieval of information about tropospheric composition and to interpret the results. The models themselves encompass much of our knowledge and understanding about trace components in the atmosphere and so they themselves must be tested against data. Care must be taken not to mix the dual role so that one can be sure of the conclusions drawn, and a

The majority of studies on internal brand equity examine its various dimensions and relationships between them. While prior research specifes organizational practices relevant for successful internal branding, the insights about the impact of essential organizational factors on internal brand equity are still limited. This study focuses on organizational resilience that is vital for the existence

The HAVOSS (Handling Vulnerabilities in OSS) maturity model describes important processes for managing security vulnerabilities in OSS modules in developed products. So far, the model has not been evaluated in any real assessment process. Here we present a study where the model was evaluated by using it in assessments of processes for two product types in one organization. Each assessment was cond

From the end of the nineteenth century and one hundred years onward, home sewing was an important part of many women’s duties, but it was also a pleasure, something that existed parallel with the emerging mass-produced ready-to-wear industry. The paper patterns used for home dressmaking were often sold and distributed through women’s magazines. These pattern sections were both a kind of reader ser

BackgroundVentral midbrain (VM) dopaminergic progenitor cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells have the potential to replace endogenously lost dopamine neurons and are currently in preclinical and clinical development for treatment of Parkinson’s Disease (PD). However, one main challenge in the quality control of the cells is that rostral and caudal VM progenitors are extremely similar tr

BACKGROUND: There are important unmet clinical needs to develop cell enrichment technologies to enable unbiased label-free isolation of both single cell and clusters of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) manifesting heterogeneous lineage specificity. Here, we report a pilot study based on microfluidic acoustophoresis enrichment of CTCs using the CellSearch CTC assay as a reference modality.METHODS: Ac

Eutrophication is a serious problem in many parts of the world, and aquaculture production can contribute to the problem as well as be part of its solution. Nutrient polices in developed countries are often command-and-control policies that may have contributed to the slow growth of the sector.

This article provides a diverse range of insights into the question of how sociology can and should contribute to research on climate change. It takes an unconventional and unique approach to doing so, through a stylized conversation between the authors, which is based on an open-ended focus group discussion. The conversation illuminates different perspectives on if and how to research climate cha

Henzinger et al. posed the so-called Online Boolean Matrix-vector Multiplication (OMv) conjecture and showed that it implies tight hardness results for several basic dynamic or partially dynamic problems [STOC'15]. We first show that the OMv conjecture is implied by a simple off-line conjecture that we call the MvP conjecture. We then show that if the definition of the OMv conjecture is generalize

Light/dark cycles play an essential role in people's performance, mood and daily rhythm. This study aimed to evaluate an early prototype of a personalised home lighting system including body-worn loggers. A convenience sample (N = 28) wore the devices for 23 h in the field and were given a demonstration of the lighting system components. Participants reported on questionnaires their acceptance of

This book is about projectification – a concept that captures the increasing reliance on “the project” in contemporary societies, governance and economies. Despite its significance, this development and transformation, not only of public and private organizations but also our working environment and way of living, has received little scholarly attention compared to other major societal movements.

In this concluding chapter, the editors take a step back, zoom out and reflect upon the significance of theoretical developments presented and what empirical implications this knowledge may have. In addition to discussing the state of this emerging research field of projectification, the chapter also opens up for further research and invites scholars from different fields of research and with diff

Three recent randomised trials have shown a lack of effect of EGDT for the treatment of severe sepsis and septic shock. Notably, control group care was excellent in all trials, including early recognition, early and aggressive fluid resuscitation and prompt administration of antibiotics, and was reflected in a lower than expected mortality.The discussion emphasizes the need for continued vigilance

The aim was to study whether stimuli that cannot be detected consciously might nevertheless influence subject’s higher cognitive functions, and whether such an effect differs in individuals with different levels of state-trait anxiety, social desirability and “Repressor”. Participants (N = 56) listened to a classical piece of music in which subliminal messages were embedded. These messages could b
