Varför ska vi bry oss om ordo?

Reflection on the widely shared pattern or shape for the principal acts of Christian worship – on what has been called ordo – offers us several important gifts. It enables and supports a renewed accent on the central matters of that worship, the matters that N. F. S. Grundtvig called “bath, word, prayer, and table,” that Luther called “signs of life” and “marks of the church,” and that both Luther

Impact of Cardiovascular Neurohormones on Onset of Vasovagal Syncope Induced by Head-up Tilt.

BackgroundVasovagal reflex is the most common form of syncope, but the pathophysiological mechanisms that initiate the reflex are not well understood. We aimed to study supine and early orthostatic levels of the neurohormones involved in control of circulatory homeostasis in relation to the onset of tilt‐induced vasovagal syncope (VVS).Methods and ResultsA total of 827 patients who were investigat

"The Ideal School - The Ideal World?" : Teacher Education moving towards glocal understanding

According to Sahlberg (2011) educational reforms in different countries follow similar patterns as well as educational systems. Sahlberg calls this Global Educational Reform Movement (GERM) and its symptoms are: More competition within education systems, which leads to accountability (inspections, standardized tests, assessing teacher effectiveness) and less cooperation, increased school choice (c

On the Formation of Necks at Crack Tips under Plane Stress Conditions.

The conditions for necking are well defined through the theory of Hill [1]. These conditions are applied to elasto plastic linearly hardening Tresca.and v Mises materials for different hardening characteristics. The results suggest that necking developes for all hardening materials. Below a certain hardening the stresses normal to the necking region and just outside it decrease during the necking

Traditional Musics in Music Education - The Sound of (R)evolution?

This chapter describes a SIDA (Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency) and later Linnaeus Palme project that in the years 2008-2016 aimed to start a Music Education Department at a Music Conservatoire in Vietnam derived from the renovation of curriculums for music in schools. It discusses the questions concerning traditional music in a school context by addressing how higher educatio

Crack paths in a weak elastic layer covering a beam

Experiments have been performed on cracks growing in a weak elastic layer bonded to a stiffer beam. The plane of the initial crack is perpendicular to the interface between the layer and the beam (see Fig. 1). The applied load is initially mode I. A frequent observation is that the crack deflects following a curved path. Finally the crack runs almost parallel with the interface. Different ratios o

The reinvented music teacher - researcher in the making : Conducting educational development through intercultural collaboration

Music educators working in cross-cultural contexts are faced with both challenges and possibilities, often finding themselves in need of multidimensional re-invention. This chapter focuses on teacher-researchers, contextualising them within the frame of institutional change and intercultural music teacher education. Taking an active role in educational development and regenerating usual patterns o

Technical applications of an imaging Gamma-ray Compton Backscattering device and simulation using GEANT4

The γ-backscattering imaging techniques are alternative methods to the transmission techniques to determine the amount and distribution of matter in objects. Images obtained with a γ-backscattering device are presented. In order to increase the understanding of the image formation process and to assist in the data analysis, a simulation of the camera was developed using the Geant4 simulation toolk

A quantitative Streptococcus pyogenes-human protein-protein interaction map reveals localization of opsonizing antibodies

A fundamental challenge in medical microbiology is to characterize the dynamic protein-protein interaction networks formed at the host-pathogen interface. Here, we generate a quantitative interaction map between the significant human pathogen, Streptococcus pyogenes, and proteins from human saliva and plasma obtained via complementary affinity-purification and bacterial-surface centered enrichment

International Law and Violence against Women: Europe and the Istanbul Convention

This book offers an in-depth and critical analysis of the Istanbul Convention, along with discussions on its impact and implications.The work highlights the place of the Convention in the landscape of international law and policies on violence against women and equality. The authors argue that the Convention with its emphasis on integrated and comprehensive policies has an important role in promot

Due Diligence versus Positive Obligations: Critical Reflections on the Council of Europe Convention on Violence against Women

Article 5 of the Council of Europe Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence (the Istanbul Convention) enshrines the standard of due diligence to frame states’ obligations. In the existing literature in the area of violence against women, the standard of due diligence has been uncritically endorsed; the reason being that it has played a crucial role in the
