At the centre of the Sermon on the Mount we find the most famous prayer of the New Testament, the Lord’s Prayer. This paper argues that the Lord’s Prayer is best understood from a discourse perspective. Rather than approaching the Sermon on the Mount from the traditional atomistic perspective of Form Criticism, where each text unit is thought to have had a separate existence and then been brought
Nordugrid offers reliable grid services for academic users over an increasing set of computing & storage resources spanning through the Nordic countries Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. A small group of scientists has already been using the Nordugrid as their daily computing utility. In the near future we expect a rapid growth both in the number of active users and available resources than
The European political landscape is one of constant flux and it is this alternating integration and disintegration which influences the basic conditions in which political power is exercised. This book argues that the interests of the cities and regions of Europe are increasingly influenced by European supranational institutions rather than the nation state and that governance in Europe is shiftin
The present paper is a study of one impersonator and one of his voice imitations. The aim of the study was to investigate how he changes his own voice and speech behavior in order to get close to the target speaker’s. A comparison is made between three recordings of the same text material: the target speaker, the voice imitation and the impersonator’s own voice and dialect. The results presented i
Varför genomsyras människans tillvaro av strävan efter mening? Vi söker ständigt efter betydelser och sammanhang, exempelvis i slumpartade händelser som lottovinster och genom att försöka tolka berättelser i datorspel. I alla kulturer finns myter om hur universum har skapats och vem som har makt över naturfenomenen. Gärdenfors menar att vår unika förmåga till framförhållning, samarbete och sökande
Abstract in French La thèse est une édition partielle d'une version particulière de l'histoire en prose de Tristan et Yseut. Le ms. fr. 103 diffère en effet de la version "vulgate" de l'histoire en plusieurs points et ne présente pas les longueurs que nous pouvons reconnaître dans la version maintenant éditée dans son intégralité. Le remanieur de l'histoire des deux amants légendaires a en effet é
A novel approach for surface wave testing of pavements is presented. It is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique that can be used to obtain the thickness and stiffness properties of the different layers in a pavement. With this method structural properties of the pavement can be mapped as a function of time and space, providing a valuable tool in pavement design and management. The technical d
Spanish America is a geographical area within which the power struggle between archaic and modern traits stands out very clearly. The reason for this might be found in the significant initial historical distance between the society of the Europeans and the society of the Indians. For this reason, it is very difficult to comprehend the history of ideas of this area, if one disregards the dialectics

In the era of proteomics, glycomics and ultimately metabolomics, with constantly increasing knowledge regarding the human biosystem, the number of specialized therapeutic agents which will be developed against different diseases is predicted to be on the upswing. An increasing portion of these new drugs will, according to recent predictions (Labrou, 2003), be of proteinaceous origin produced accor
In this paper, we revisit the classical perspective-n-point (PnP) problem, and propose the first non-iterative O(n) solution that is fast, generally applicable and globally optimal. Our basic idea is to formulate the PnP problem into a functional minimization problem and retrieve all its stationary points by using the Gr¨obner basis technique. The novelty lies in a non-unit quaternion representati
