Jerome of Stridon was one of the most important biblical exegetes in early Christianity. Analyzing letters as well as prefaces to biblical commentaries written by Jerome, this article discusses four criteria which he considered to be necessary for orthodox exegesis to take place: 1) education and learning; 2) studying the Scriptures as part of an ascetic lifestyle; 3) divine help; and 4) learning

Environmental impact and security of supply has fuelled a shift in the power mix of power systems today. Traditionally used fossil fuel gives more and more space to the development of renewables in an effort to comply with strict international standards regarding CO2 emissions and secure energy supply. Wide geographical spread of renewable resources indicates that HVDC technology is most suitable

Biografisk artikel om Claes Ludvig Ennes (1727-1791), lundastudent, skald, präst och informator till Carl Michael Bellman.

The transdisciplinary fields of design and feminist technoscience share a common interest in focusing on the world in a state of always becoming, always changing. Within feminist technoscience, norm-critical perspectives are implemented to shed light on unequal sociotechnical infrastructures. Within design research, generative methods of critical design and design fiction encourage processes of fi

A new European Union policy could increase the supply of legitimate pharmaceuticals in developing countries and thereby minimize the problem of counterfeit medicines, but many challenges remain. This paper describes the proposed European legislation and discusses its' potential strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. Ultimately, we consider if the United States should consider similar po

Barriers to decision quality were reported by 473 administrative officers and investigators in three Swedish national public authorities: the Tax Agency, Social Insurance Agency, and Police Authority. In line with previous research, we assumed that limited possibilities to plan one’s work would hinder decision quality. Both disruption of workflow and high workload were reported to inhibit work pla

Objective: This study aims to test a Chinese cross-cultural adaptation of the English version of the Person-Centred Care Assessment Tool (P-CAT)and evaluate its psychometric properties. Design: P-CAT was translated/back-translated using established procedures before the psychometric evaluation of the Chinese version was made. Setting: Two hospitals covering urban and suburban areas of Kunming in tOBJECTIVE: This study aims to test a Chinese cross-cultural adaptation of the English version of the Person-Centred Care Assessment Tool (P-CAT) and evaluate its psychometric properties.DESIGN: P-CAT was translated/back-translated using established procedures before the psychometric evaluation of the Chinese version was made.SETTING: Two hospitals covering urban and suburban areas of Kunming in th

Separately collected urine is an attractive potential fertilizer because of its high nutrient content, low cost, and inherent linkage of urban wastewater management and peri-urban agriculture. Urine from waterless urinals was applied to corn and lettuce plants to examine the impact of urine application rates and frequency on plant growth and soil parameters. In both corn and lettuce experiments, u

This study estimated the climate footprint of halogenated inhalation anesthetics in Sweden and estimated effects of a decreased use of these compounds. We collected data on sales of desflurane, sevoflurane and isoflurane in Sweden during 2017 and calculated the mass of CO2 equivalents (CO2e) using Global Warming Potential data over 100 years for the compounds. Inhalation anesthetics contributed by

This chapter is dedicated to radio channel measurement and modelling techniques for beyond 4G networks, in particular: • new measurement techniques not only targeting radio channels, but also material properties in new frequency bands (Section 9.1), • improved physical models, cowering full-wave as well as ray-based methods, with a specific sub-section dealing with diffuse scattering (DS) and comp
