“What one hears from John MacArthur’s pulpit is a very straight Christian message—conservative, to be sure, but free from the wrangling, the defensiveness, and the bitterness of the fundamentalism of a generation or two ago. If one were to call MacArthur a fundamentalist, a label that, I gather, he would not reject, one would have to admit that his is a very impressive sort of fundamentalism. His expository sermons are instructive and edifying. Twice a Sunday he draws a very large congregation that sits attentively for an hour-long sermon.
To get a feel for the way MacArthur handles the ministry of the Word, I ordered his ten sermons on the eighth and ninth chapters of the Gospel of Matthew. I chose this collection because I myself had tried to do a number of sermons on these two chapters and found them extremely difficult to preach. In the two chapters nine of the most spectacular miracle stories of the Gospel are recounted about healings, exorcisms, and the stilling of the storm. The preacher has to deal with some tough questions in these two chapters. I was curious how someone with a reputation for solid expository preaching, such as MacArthur has, might interpret these passages. Listening to these sermons was a rewarding experience, even if I have a number of reservations and hesitations about MacArthur’s approach to preaching.
MacArthur fills these sermons with a wealth of factual material. In the way of human interest stories one finds, on the other hand, very little. The illustrative material focuses on the biblical story. It is the passage of Scripture that is illuminated rather than a principle drawn out of the passage.
MacArthur also has an amazing ability to explain Scripture by Scripture. He spends a great deal of time studying the parallel passages in the other Gospels. Most of the material in Matthew 8 and 9 is also found in Mark, Luke, or John. The harmonizing of the different Gospel accounts is not excessive. A good example of his moderation as a harmonizer is found in the sermon on the exorcising of the Gadarene demoniac (Matt. 8:28-34). One Gospel tells us of two demon-possessed men while the other tells us of a single man.
Particularly illuminating is the way MacArthur emphasizes the similarity between Matthew and John on the one hand and Matthew and Paul on the other. This is in contrast to much twentieth-century New Testament scholarship, which tended to see Matthew and the Synoptic Gospels over against John. Often to make his point he will run through a list of five to ten examples. He spits it out machine-gun style so he does not overburden the sermon with material that only the more initiated members of his congregation can follow, but for the more serious listener these parallel passages make the sermon richly informative and mightily convincing. Again MacArthur gives a great deal of time to coordinating the message of the Gospel of Matthew with that of the epistles of Paul.
Realizing that a significant school of modern biblical scholarship has denied that Paul’s elaborate theology was based on the simple gospel of Jesus, our preacher is careful to show the similarity between the two. It is very interesting to note that the polemic implied does not come to the surface. MacArthur simply shows how Paul preaches the same gospel as Matthew. One gets the impression that MacArthur is first of all an expositor and only after that a polemicist. This speaks enormously to his credit.
Having said this, however, one has to admit that our preacher has a very clear line of interpretation on these miracle stories in Matthew 8 and 9. As he sees it, these miracles are above all the proofs of Christ’s divinity. They are not examples of what the power of faith can do. Much less are they the myths that symbolically express the devotion of the early Christians to their extraordinary teacher. One never gets the impression that this preacher has the least shadow of doubt but that these miracles took place exactly as they are recorded. But, again, there is never any argument that they could have taken place just as they are recorded. Defending the accuracy of the Bible seems to interest MacArthur not at all. He simply assumes it is all quite reliable. This basic assumption that the text of Scripture is reliable is part of the foundation of his effectiveness as an interpreter.
The one direction in which MacArthur does let loose a moderate amount of polemic is toward the charismatics and faith healers. Charismatics take a very different tack in interpreting the healings and exorcisms of the Gospels. Charismatics see miracles as an ordinance of the church. Like the sacraments, they should be a continuing part of the Christian churches’ ministry. When MacArthur argues that the purpose of the miracles was to make it clear that Jesus was the Christ, he means we should not therefore expect this kind of healing ministry in the church today. It had its function in New Testament times but, since we have the inspired witness of Scripture today that is sufficient witness to establish both the true divinity and the true humanity of Christ, miracles are no longer necessary.
As I have mentioned, these sermons on Matthew 8 and 9 have a particular interest for me because I once tried to preach through these chapters and was very unhappy with how I did it. Where MacArthur succeeded and I did not may well be in his complete clarity on just how he stood on some of these issues. While I would insist that Jesus did perform miracles, I have to admit that the caveats of the Enlightenment still obscure my thoughts from time to time. I suppose I am troubled by a shadow of doubt, but then the same would be true of many in my congregation.
The place where I have always had the greatest trouble is the whole matter of exorcism. I really do not believe in Satan, demonic spirits, and demon possession. Maybe I ought to, but I don’t. I am willing to agree that I may have been too strongly influenced by the intellectual world in which I was brought up to fully grasp the full teaching of Scripture, but that is the way it is.
What is more than clear to me after listening to these sermons is that those who can take the text the way it is seem to make a lot more sense of it than those who are always trying to second-guess it. Surely one of the greatest strengths of MacArthur’s preaching ministry is his complete confidence in the text.
Let us look for a brief moment at our preacher as an orator. One could evaluate his oratory very differently. My first impression is that he has little to offer from the standpoint of the art of oratory. Listening to the tapes, one has to say that he is the antithesis of Lloyd Ogilvie. Thinking about it a bit longer, however, I have to admit he does have techniques of getting people to listen that we should not overlook.
The strength of his preaching is his content, but he has mastered some devices as well. He seems to have a feel for the use of rhythm in his preaching. He uses a variety of rhythms. He will often deliver a whole series of phrases in the same rhythm almost as used in the Odes of Horace. Sometimes his rhythms are very rapid and sometimes very slow. Sometimes they are highly artificial. One is easily offended by his preacher’s cant, but one wonders at times whether one does well to be offended. These pulpit rhythms, which we think of as being hopelessly old-fashioned, are being used by preachers today quite effectively. They somehow make it possible for the listener to absorb and retain quite a bit of material over a long period of time. Could this be why the epic poets told their long stories in rhythmic meters? MacArthur’s rhetoric is terribly out of date, but maybe he knows something the rest of us don’t.
Why do so many people listen to MacArthur, this product of all the wrong schools? How can he pack out a church on Sunday morning in an age in which church attendance has seriously lagged? Here is a preacher who has nothing in the way of a winning personality, good looks, or charm. Here is a preacher who offers us nothing in the way of sophisticated homiletical packaging.
–Hughes Oliphant Old, The Reading and Preaching of the Scriptures in the Worship of the Christian Church, Volume 7: Our Own Time (Grand Rapids, MI: Eerdmans, 2010), 551-558.
Yet all that mortal man is capable of knowing about God the Father is fully revealed to us by God the Son. He, who was in the bosom of the Father from all eternity, has been pleased to take our nature upon Him, and to exhibit to us in the form of man, all that our minds can comprehend of the Father’s perfections.
In Christ’s words, and deeds, and life, and death, we learn as much concerning God the Father as our feeble minds can at present bear. His perfect wisdom,—His almighty power,—His unspeakable love to sinners,—His incomparable holiness,—His hatred of sin, could never be represented to our eyes more clearly than we see them in Christ’s life and death.
In truth, ‘God was manifest in the flesh,’ when the Word took on Him a body. ‘He was the brightness of the Father’s glory, and the express image of His person.’ He says Himself, ‘I and my Father are one.’ ‘He that hath seen me hath seen the Father.’ In Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.’ (Coloss. 2:9.) These are deep and mysterious things. But they are true. (1 Tim. 3:16; Heb. 1:3; John 10:30; 14:9.
And now, after reading this passage, can we ever give too much honour to Christ? Can we ever think too highly of Him? Let us banish the unworthy thought from our minds for ever. Let us learn to exalt Him more in our hearts, and to rest more confidingly the whole weight of our souls in His hands.

The Fall of the Wild is a book about the ethical challenges of conservation in a time of accelerating wildlife losses and growing scientific and technological power. In an age of extinction, biodiversity scientists and wildlife advocates have sought to curb species declines and extinctions via a range of scientific and policy strategies, from the traditional (regulations, referenda, and refuges) to the novel (the scientific wizardry of genetic engineering). The more ambitious and aggressive conservation approaches, however, raise thorny questions about the ethical consequences of our expanding incursions in wild populations and places.
Can we, for example, uphold our responsibilities to protect wild species while at the same time avoid taking too heavy a hand in these efforts? How do we balance our desire to “do whatever it takes” to save species headed toward extinction while still preserving a meaningful understanding of the wild as something we don’t design and control? In the book, I argue that the tension between these two impulses ripples through a wide range of conservation questions and challenges, from the field, to the zoo, to the lab.
Centered on a series of iconic episodes of species extinctions (from the great auk to the Tasmanian tiger), the book makes the case that some of our more heroic efforts to study, restore, and conserve species actually pose a threat to the ideal of preserving a wild nature that isn’t completely under the human thumb. From collecting wildlife specimens for museums and the wilderness aspirations of zoos, to the high-tech attempt to “revive” long-extinct species using cutting-edge biological and engineering techniques, the book explores the science and ethics of conservation in a time of increasing societal concern, scientific acumen, and ecological impact.
The Fall of the Wild should therefore be read as an accessible and informed overview of some of the moral dilemmas gripping our efforts to save wild species today, as well as a guide to long-running and emerging conservation practices and debates that have shaped the human-nature relationship in the modern era.

We are deeply disappointed by President Trump’s decision to pull the United States out of the Iran Deal. Even though we are disappointed, The United Methodist Church will continue to support diplomacy as an effective tool for peacebuilding around the world. As followers of the Prince of Peace, we can do no less.
The facts show that the Deal is working, and the International Atomic Energy Agency continues to verify the efficacy of the safeguards in fulfillment of the terms of the Deal. The Deal put in place international safeguards and procedures to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon. The United Kingdom, Germany, France, Russia and China stand by the Deal, and strongly oppose the decision to pull the U.S. out of the Deal.
Reinstating sanctions on Iran is concerning on many levels, but most pressing: it will worsen living conditions for the Iranian people. Further, the call for regime change of the Iranian government by high-ranking U.S. officials has all the markings of comments leading to war. The words of President Trump today are very similar to sentiments the public heard in the lead up to the Iraq war. We must not allow that to become reality.
We are encouraged that the other signers, including Iran, have signaled a commitment to working together for the continued implementation of the Deal.
The Iran Nuclear Deal is a concrete step forward to ensure peace with Iran is not illusory, but a reality. We continue to pray for peace, wisdom, and an increased priority for diplomacy with Iran and among nations across the world.
Doubtless some other denominational agencies and church voices will follow suit in coming days. Jim Wallis of Sojourners starting during the Bush Administration organizing a religious coalition opposing military action against Iran and was vocal for the nuclear deal, about which he doubtless will soon speak again. In 2015 he explained it was a “good” and “Christian” option.
But strategic maneuverings among nations are rarely if ever clearly “Christian” and “good” or clearly not so. The previous administration gained the deal only after sanctions and implied military threats, which the Methodist statement opposes, and believed it was the best available means for restricting Iran from nuclear development for at least the duration of the agreement, at whose conclusion it was hoped other options would be available, or the nature of Iran’s Islamist regime changed.
Opponents of that deal believe it was at best a very flawed and temporary fix that empowered the Islamist regime by lifting sanctions, and that this newly empowered Iran has consequently asserted itself throughout the Mideast, especially in Syria.
The Methodist statement and earlier Sojourners pronouncements on Iran have avoided acknowledging the reality of Iran’s Islamist dictatorship, its repression of its own people, its strategic ambitions, its regional aggressions, and most disturbing, its apocalyptic religious outlook conducive to possibly suicidal acts that are difficult to deter.
Church groups that are pacifist like the Methodist lobby and Sojourners rightfully have little meaningful to say about statecraft, all of which is undergird directly or indirectly by force. They like diplomacy but ignore that diplomacy is waged by coercive states. And they tend to pretend that all governments are of the same nature, as though Iranian nukes would be no more troubling than French or British nukes. Jim Wallis seems actually to think the U.S. is possibly worse than Iran, as he cites the CIA’s role in the 1953 coup as legitimizing of Iranian Islamist rapid anti-Americanism.
Religious advocacy by Wallis, the Methodist lobby & similar groups would be more serious if they affirmed historic Christian teaching about a legitimate state’s vocation for force in some important circumstances. Instead, the Methodists foreswear even sanctions, as though diplomacy even with recalcitrant tyrants can be effective solely through appeals to good will. It also would be more moral, more Christian and more realistic if these church voices admitted that some regimes are considerably more sinister than others. Iran’s mullahs brutalize their own people and aren’t exactly cordial to neighboring states. Shouldn’t Christian voices seeking justice be concerned?
The Methodist statement specifically faulted desires for regime change in Iran. But shouldn’t all believers in God-given human dignity at least pray and hope that Iran some day is free of its current theocratic dictatorship?
If there are good and realistic arguments for the Iran deal, these religious voices avoid them in favor of a fantasy-based vision of the world. Their choice to neglect the historic ethical tools of their faith about war, peace and power is sad and requires they not be treated seriously. It’s their loss, but it’s also ours. Hopefully other Christian voices will speak with more fidelity and sobriety.
Where is your evidence that the current deal is working? Have you read through the Documents? Iran is not now progressing towards a bomb??
The author of this piece isn’t saying that the deal is working. The reference to the deal working is a quote from the United Methodist lobby office.
Mainline churches are disconnected from reality. I know I grew-up in one. One would think the barbaric facts of sharia would cause them to recognize the bully on the playground and at least run away if they didn’t want to fight. But no, like the Brits placated Hitler until everyone in Europe was swallowed up except for themselves and Switzerland, they want to somehow keep their concept of the moral high ground intact. If Jesus followed their example he would have never gone to the trouble of breaking the power over sin and death by defeating satan. He would have struck a deal with the devil out in the desert like Obama did with Iran. The backbone has left mainline churches. I saw leadership positions in the church switch hands over time due to complacency and unbelief. Until now, it’s simply a political mouthpiece of the left.
When pacifists ruled Europe’s largest countries, Hitler took over. Iran is a state that sponsors Terrorism. Period. Our God made the practice of Sekf Defence a priority in the Old and New Testament. Nehemiah and Luke.
The UMC will oppose everything this President does, no matter how wise.

The more actors there are and the more they interact, the more nonlinear the system becomes. The result is that the system becomes more unpredictable. A non linear system emerge from the interaction between the parts (not from the parts themselves), which creates adaptation that changes the behaviour of the actors. Nonlinear systems are also called learning systems or complex systems.
Adaptation will require feedback (what is happening?), variability (several options to choose from), and decisions (choose what to do). With more frequent interaction, the amount of relevant feedback will increase and joint corrections can be done faster and in smaller steps. Frequent pulse meetings will enable a team to adapt quickly to new information gathered during their work with product development.
The conclusion is that increased interaction between individuals working with product development will speed up learning and adaptation. That will in turn increase the likelihood for value added work to be done and thus shorten the development time.
Nonlinear systems (e.g. economy, learning, and development): Are successful in unstable and changing environments. Are open systems that receives information and energy from the outside world. The systems’ behaviour emerge from the interaction between the actors. The wholeness is something entirely different than the sum of their parts. Autonomous interconnected parts that change and adapt over time (“learning”).
Linear systems (e.g. mechanical machines): Require a stable and predefined environment that doesn’t change. Closed systems where the parts can’t interact and learn. Stable, predictable and controllable parts.
Can be divided into components, each of which can be designed, optimized and then put together again to form a system that is the sum of its parts.
Agility is the ability to successfully create, cope with and exploit changes in circumstances. Within product development, changes in circumstances are typically changes in the market or new techniques that will have impact on individual projects and potentially also on the whole strategy. The amount of agility that is needed depend on the complexity of the system (how fast new knowledge is created and the environment is changing) and the cost of error (such as launching a product that doesn’t sell).
Example: Weather forecast for this afternoon- look out of the window. Weather forecast for next week – you will need information from weather stations, satellites, computers, historic data from past 100 years, analyses and still you really don’t know.
When you work in a nonlinear complex system such as product development and want to plan further and further into the future, then the uncertainty will increase. To be able to plan, you also need to collect historic data as input. The longer time span you want to predict, the more information from the past you need to compile and analyse.
That will cost a lot of money and time, and still the uncertainty in the prediction will be very high.
In Pulse (as in lean, agility, and scrum) planning is done in short iterations, in small steps, which creates low uncertainty. Detailed long term planning has been replaced with a system for real-time (daily) control at the pulse meetings.
Managers in Pulse will also work in a system for real-time (daily) control through the pulse meetings. They operate through priority and focus that will control the release of energy in the company. Work on strategies is constantly in progress to keep up with the rapid shifts in the projects and in the rest of the world.
Product development will be successful when a new product meets strong customer needs. Some customer demands doesn’t change, for example solutions that will increase customers’ productivity, but the ability to offer solutions will change as new technologies are developed. The race is on to be there first with a cost effective attractive solution as soon as a opportunity emerge.
To be able to find opportunities, you need to place yourself where the flow of change is strong. That spot is called “on the edge of chaos”. The success rate is lower on either side of the edge. Either the environment is too stable or too chaotic.
To be able to realize the opportunities you find, you have to balance the amount of structure that will give you advantages in efficiency (that will control the release of energy). Too much structure will be costly, prevent adaptation and slow down the work. Too little structure will create hesitation, anxiety and decision overload that will slow down the work.
Balancing on the edge of chaos will require constant attention. It is not enough to find one point that will balance. The ground is constantly moving as from a earth quake. Over time managers will have to adjust the amount of structure to fit individual opportunities and projects. The business needs to do what is called “an adaptive walk in a fitness landscape”.
Too much structure and bureaucracy will not only cost money to build, but even more to maintain. If the cost to change the structure is high, then that will either slow down adaptation (resulting in missed opportunities and lower revenue) or encourage people to find ways around the system (not updating information that over time will erode the structure).
There is a lot of details in a project. The amount of information to be processed is therefore enormous. Increasing complexity will increase both the need for information and the uncertainty in the projects. That will induce waste and increase loss of energy.
A strategic product team acts on a higher level with less details. The uncertainties will be handled with less information and less waste. To move up on a higher level, using overall patterns, simplifies decision making by not having to consider so many details. Work done on a strategic level to prepare business cases and technical architecture before a project is started will reduce the uncertainty in the project and will thus shorten the development lead time.
Product development done by the strategic product team will include a lot of uncertainty when launch of a potential product lies far into the future. The point is not to avoid uncertainty as that will also reduce the opportunities and therefore the revenue, but rather manage uncertainty in a clever way. A strategic product team will create a strategic design with business goals within prioritised segments and compile “long lists” and “top lists” with potential product and project candidates.
They will screen through those lists and pick the best ideas to prepare projects to be started. The items on those lists will change quite often. Not all candidates will develop gradually and eventually become projects. Some will die prematurely, some will be combined with other ideas, and some will be split into several parts. From time to time there will also be unforeseen opportunities coming from customers, universities or partners that will fast track directly to a project start.
Example: To understand the difference between the project level and a strategic product team. Consider to the difference between quantum mechanics and thermodynamics. At a quantum level there is a lot of information to be collected and understood about atoms and their spin, rotation, velocity and so on. In thermodynamics you measure only pressure and temperature.
It is well known from data networks that whereas each individual traffic stream may behave in an unpredictable fashion, the merged behaviour of a large population behaves in a predictable fashion. Basically this is a smoothing effect of a large population. The consequence is that it is possible to study and understand a complex system on an overall level and ignore the parts. Actually, if you want to learn something about a product development system as a whole, you have to ignore the parts (such as individual projects) since they are unpredictable and will contain disinformation.
In product development an overall level will contain for example a compiled project portfolio with a total revenue over 5 years, overall business goals for a business unit indicating additional growth in focus segments, and a product road map that point out new products to be launched.
Predictions far into the future are highly uncertain. Project ideas in early stages of development will be changed quite often. As projects work closer to launch the uncertainty is reduced.
To be able to realize opportunities, the company have to balance the amount of structure that will give advantages in efficiency versus adaptability. Too much structure will be costly, prevent adaptation and slow down the work. Too little structure will create hesitation, anxiety and decision overload that will slow down the work.
If you can adapt to a new norm without really having restructuring costs, then you are really at operational excellence.
If you want to learn something about a complex system (such as product development), you have to ignore the parts (such as individual projects) since they are unpredictable and will contain disinformation. Instead focus on an overall level with project portfolio, business goals, and product road map.
Example: A pulse room with pulse boards for projects, assignments, strategic product management and multi-project management.

I still remember the first time I tasted a fish dish wrapped in a bag -“en papillote”. The server cut the bag open and in doing so, released an incredible aroma of salmon and herbs. It seemed, at the time, to be a very complex preparation. Little did I know just how simple it really was.
Fast forward a decade or two, and parchment has become a regular tool in my kitchen. It’s not only useful for creating these flavourful packets of food but also for non-stick healthy food prep and for keeping clean up to a minimum. But lining baking sheets and creating food packets is just a small part of parchment’s versatile uses. You can even use it to line a frying pan to prevent burning and scorching of dishes like eggs.
A Canadian company, PaperChef, is taking parchment even further. They’ve come out with a whole line of parchment products for the home cook: Cooking Bags, Baking Cups, Lotus Cups (fancy baking cups) and Parchment Paper.
To learn more about using culinary parchment paper, check out PaperChef’s website for videos, recipes and more.
This South Asian dish was created by chef Joshna Maharaj for PaperChef , using the Culinary Parchment Multipurpose Paper. Roasted and caramelized cauliflower, prepared with an aromatic blend of traditional Indian spices will provide another vegetable centerpiece for a harvest meal. Cooked on a baking sheet lined with, this golden spiced beauty is a lively mouthwatering delight.
A note: I have decreased the amount of salt from the original recipe.
Place cauliflower in a large mixing bowl and drizzle with vegetable oil.
In a small bowl, combine cumin, coriander, turmeric and cayenne and stir to combine. Sprinkle the spice mixture over cauliflower and use your hands to gently toss, making sure to coat each piece with the oil and spices.
Arrange cauliflower in an even layer on each baking sheet and season with salt.
Roast for 25-35 minutes, or until cauliflower is tender and the edges are nicely browned.

esthlos-V Genesis, Or: Who Presses the Pressor?
Edit on 2018-06-07: Modified the below vpatch to include a manifest, per the spec.
This item fulfills the request for a new V implementation.
If you're new here and don't know what V is, I suggest you glance at the canonical introduction by Benjamin Vulpes, and possibly glance my (now outdated by this post) older, flawed vtron.
and others for general advice on vtronics and other matters.
rm-location is the location of your rm executable.
Note well: strings pointing to directories should end in a forward slash to ensure correct interpretation.
You're on a decent Linux distribution (e.g. Gentoo).
sbcl (tested on version 1.4.4 x86_64).
ccl (tested on version 1.11.5 x86_64).
Press the thing with your current vtron.
Move the files to a convenient location.
Create (and possibly populate) the wot, seals, and vpatch directories.
In the directory with the files, run sbcl or ccl.
In the REPL, run (load "v.lisp").
run make ccl to build with ccl.
Of course, the user of this program is expected to read and understood before use, but you might want to test it, too. I've designed the program so that each piece can be tested independently. Here's something to get you started.
Open up your preferred (any color you like, as long it's sbcl or ccl) REPL, and load in the vtron with (load "v.lisp"). We're going to test the topological sorting capability by creating all directed 6-graphs, and trying to press each one. Exactly one of the graphs has a cycle, and should throw an error.
I encourage you to further play with the thing, especially if you believe it's broken in some way.
I'm sure something is broken, so please: read and test!
Regardless, I hope it serves you well.

The engineering of lightweight vehicles requires manufacturers to combine functional metal components with lightweight, highly durable carbon fiber reinforced plastics. Fraunhofer researchers have developed a variety of solutions for joining such disparate materials – and will be showcasing their technology at this year's Hannover Messe on April 1-5, 2019 using an e-scooter demonstrator (Hall 17, Booth C24).
Whether it is buses, cars, scooters or bicycles, it seems certain that electromobility will power the future. One of the biggest hurdles at the moment, however, is how to increase vehicle range – a challenge that will depend on making vehicles as light as possible. The lighter the vehicle or transporter, the longer the energy storage lasts. In this domain, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics, or CFRP for short, are the material of choice – as strong as steel and yet some eight times lighter, and even three times lighter even than aluminum. The general practice is to manufacture individual components, the vehicle frame for instance, using CFRP, and then join them to the function-bearing metal components using screws or adhesives. In other words, components that connect long expanses and transfer loads can be manufactured using CFRP, while metal is reserved for the functional components and attachment points for the steering mechanism, for example.
Now, researchers from the Fraunhofer Research Institution for Casting, Composite and Processing Technology IGCV at the Technology Center in Augsburg have come up with a variety of innovative new techniques to join conventionally cast components with those made of CFRP. Looking beyond the thoroughly established foundry technology, there is a lot of potential in modern manufacturing techniques such as additive manufacturing and 3-D printing. "We've combined the various new joining techniques in an electric scooter demonstrator. The goal is to cut down on the number of mechanical attachment points and simplify the joining process as much as possible," explains Dr.-Ing. Daniel Günther, who heads the project at Fraunhofer IGCV. "There's a lot of potential in combining metal and CFRP components, with a potential weight saving of up to 50 percent depending on the part."
The steering head of the scooter is a hybrid component, with an aluminum base frame linking to the footboard behind and the handlebars at the front.This part of the scooter is full of parts integral to its functioning, with a significant expanse to bridge in-between. Using CFRP parts ensures the necessary rigidity. The two different materials are joined together using adhesive bonding. "In terms of a baseline load, we assumed a person weighing one hundred kilograms performing jumps with the scooter. To support that sort of load using a pure aluminum cast part, you would need a huge amount of material to ensure sufficient rigidity," says Günther. To manufacture the part, Günther and his team began by analyzing the available installation space. As a rule of thumb, the more room used, the larger the cross-section of the component – and the better its rigidity. The material has to be kept as thin as possible, however, to ensure that the component does not become overly heavy. The solution to this is to use CFRP in combination with cast metal. As a further step, the researchers calculated the load at various points of the component. The splices have been precisely positioned at the points with the least load. Rigidity is guaranteed thanks to the shaping of the CFRP component.
The load-bearing capacity and durability of CFRP comes from the fibers contained within it. Here, the main challenge lies in transferring the force acting on a component so it is absorbed by these same fibers. On top of this, engineers need to ensure that any metal parts are as securely attached to the CFRP components as possible, without any gaps or cavities. In response, the researchers have developed a completely new joining technique – best explained by taking a look at the components involved. In the example of the electronic scooter, you have a cylindrical piece connecting to the handlebars, a steel component made using an additive manufacturing technique. The bottom of the component has a plate that works as a base with small pins sticking out from its surface. Researchers then overlay this base plate with the prepregs for the CFRP component, made out of fibers coated with synthetic resin. Afterwards, they apply vacuum and increase the temperature. The resin encloses the carbon fibers, flows downwards and closes the gap with the metal plate, hardening to form an adhesive bond. Here, not only does the resin stick to the plate, the protruding pins are also enveloped and held in place by the fibers. This interlocks the components and supplies a solid bond – without the need for screws or additional adhesives. "The technique is fast, industry-ready and can easily be scaled up for mass production," says Günther.

The Will specifically bequeaths a personal item or asset that does not exist anymore. What do I do?
If the Will bequeaths a personal item (e.g. a painting) or an asset (e.g. an investment property) that does not exist at the date of death of the deceased, the specific bequest will fail. This situation will arise if, for example, the personal item or asset was destroyed or sold before the deceased passed away.
The estate has insufficient funds to pay all of the bequests. What do I do?
In this situation, a pro-rata for each bequest is calculated. Whilst this sounds straightforward, legislation imposes certain rules when calculating the pro-rata and we recommend you liaise with a solicitor to discuss this issue further.
The Will states a beneficiary must be a certain age before receiving their bequest. What do I do?
If a beneficiary is not old enough to receive their bequest (i.e. the beneficiary is 10 years old and the Will states they are to receive their bequest when they are 18 years old), the asset bequeathed to the beneficiary will need to be managed by the executor until they reach the nominated age.
If a beneficiary is not of age, we recommend you liaise with a solicitor and an accountant to discuss the best manner in which to manage the bequest. In particular, the solicitor and accountant, acting together, can advise you on your obligations regarding the bequest, the most appropriate means of investing the bequest and minimising any legal and taxation consequences.
If you have been appointed an executor of an estate, you are entitled to submit a claim for executor’s commission. Executor’s commission represents payment to the executor in acknowledgement of the services he/she has provided as part of administering the estate.
The amount you can claim for executor’s commission is variable. It will depend on the size of the estate, the executor’s conduct when administering the estate and the attitude of the beneficiaries. In some circumstances, an executor may choose to accept an agreed sum. In other circumstances, an executor may choose to accept a percentage of the total assets of the estate.
Preferably, if the residuary beneficiaries are over the age of 18 years and are able to consent, a written agreement should be reached with all of the residuary beneficiaries regarding the payment of executor’s commission. If an agreement cannot be reached, a claim for executor’s commission will need to be determined by a court of law.

Create Your Own Easter Egg Designs with Texta!
It’s that time of year again where we have all the chocolate and none of the regrets!
To celebrate this delicious time of the year, we love to get decorative and design our own Easter eggs.
First of all, you’re going to want to get some hard boiled eggs, duh. The kind that chickens lay, not the chocolate kind (those you can have later)!
Then grab your handy Textas and you’re ready to decorate!
But wait! You might want to get some practice scrap paper to doodle on while you figure out your ideas. For this project, we recommend going with our Metallic Markers or our Laser Colouring Markers! These have long lasting water-based ink so you can draw your little heart out without worrying about your Textas running out of juice.
We think colourful patterns are a great idea – think stripes and polka dots! You can also get fancy with some typography (writing your gift recipient’s name?) or drawing a picture on your egg as well – it’s all up to you.
When you start doing the deed, begin work on a small part of your design, then allow to dry while working in parts. Careful not to touch any still drying ink or you’ll be headed straight for Smudgesville. Having something like a paper towel nearby will let give it a surface to lie on and also let you gently pat areas so they dry a bit faster.
When you’re all done with your masterpiece, allow to dry completely and you’re all finished!
How about some cute cards to go with those eggs too? Hop (pun intended) onto Pinterest for some sweet inspo to get the creative juices flowing! Think pastels and bunnies, as well as your all-important message.
Now after all that hard work, you can kick back and enjoy your chocolate responsibly.

Not all first marriages work out, and many divorcees in Oklahoma go on to find happiness in second or even third marriages. However, these subsequent marriages can require special attention during estate planning. Wills, trusts and other important documents often need to be revised, otherwise there is the possibility that a person's true final wishes might not actually be respected.
On behalf of Derryberry & Naifeh, LLP posted in Wills on Friday, August 19, 2016.
Estate plans are one of the most effective tools for individuals in Oklahoma to handle their finances and assets both before and after death. Despite this, the vast majority of Americans still lack even a basic will. Ignoring estate planning needs could mean more than just the state distributing a person's assets as it seems fit; it could also mean a headache for surviving loved ones.
Does estate planning as a parent mean I have to tell my kids?
On behalf of Derryberry & Naifeh, LLP posted in Wills on Friday, July 22, 2016.
Although every family in Oklahoma is unique, many parents still include their adult children in their estate plan. This tends to create a bit of a conundrum for parents who are unsure what information they should share with their adult children regarding their wills. There might be no universal answer that is appropriate for each and every family, but there are certain considerations that can help parents decide which estate planning approach is best suited for their family.
Do I have to keep the inheritances left to me in wills?
On behalf of Derryberry & Naifeh, LLP posted in Wills on Friday, July 15, 2016.
Great aunt Tilda's silverware, dad's old house or grandma's car -- these types of assets are passed on alongside more financially focused inheritances, such as lump sums of cash or the remaining contents of a retirement account. In some cases, an inheritance is highly desirable and even beneficial to the heir. However, simply because loved ones left something behind in one of their wills does not necessarily mean that an heir is stuck with it.

Summer is often a time for road trips, camping and lounging at the beach, and many people in Oklahoma plan to go on vacation at some point in the coming months. Travelers usually make sure to request time off from work and pack up coolers full of snacks, but there is one crucial pre-trip step that is usually missed -- estate planning. Vacation might illicit images of fun and relaxation, but that fails to take into account the realities of what might happen.

Many in Oklahoma and throughout the country feel that one of life's most unpleasant tasks is determining how their possessions and money will be distributed after their deaths. Inherently, estate planning and establishing wills require a person to fully confront his or her morbidity, which is not the way most like to pass their time. However, after Prince's death in April, estate planners have seen a dramatic upswing in will creation.
On behalf of Derryberry & Naifeh, LLP posted in Wills on Thursday, May 5, 2016.
Some people in Oklahoma may be among others throughout the nation who tend to steer clear of discussions that involve their own mortality. Stories abound of those who have died without having wills in place. Such situations often cause surviving loved ones to face complications and difficult legal challenges later down the line.
On behalf of Derryberry & Naifeh, LLP posted in Wills on Thursday, April 28, 2016.
Fans in Oklahoma and across the rest of the United States recently joined together to mourn the loss of the late singer Prince. Born Prince Rogers Nelson, authorities claim that they have not found any evidence that he engaged in any type of estate planning prior to his death. He left behind no living children and has only one sibling with whom he shares both biological parents, and, while there are statutes and laws that dictate how an estate should be handled in the absence of a will, it is still advised that adults have at least a preliminary estate plan.
On behalf of Derryberry & Naifeh, LLP posted in Wills on Thursday, April 21, 2016.
Losing a parent is never an easy thing to face, and the matter can be further complicated by surprises in the will. While every family in Oklahoma has its own unique needs, there are a few steps that most people can take to prevent sibling rivalry during estate distribution. However, this aspect of estate planning also involves keeping adult children up-to-date on the terms of a will and any trusts.
On behalf of Derryberry & Naifeh, LLP posted in Wills on Tuesday, April 12, 2016.
Estate planning is essential for ensuring personal effects and other assets are properly handled after a person's death. Most people in Oklahoma have a firm idea of what they want to happen with their house, vehicle and their great aunt's serving set, but what about a business? Business owners might expect family members to step up and take charge, but wills are key to protecting the venture.

Thank you for sharing this awesome beauty that I would otherwise not even know about.
You are so welcome, Catherine. I love to share things that inspire me.
Awesome (in the true sense of the word, not just slang).
I continue to be amazed at revisiting this old memory now updated and I would never have guessed how stupendously overwhelmingly exquisite this cathedral would become when I visited an open air construction site in 1983.
And it’s still a work in progress! Who know what more there will be to see when our kids and grandkids visit it.
I’ve been thinking about how its story had always been in progress. What will it be when finished, will that sense of future and expectations and change continue?
I loved Barcelona. So much to see there. I got chills too from his spectacular artwork.
Wow! Absolutely stunning! Thank you so much for sharing your photographs. I may never get to Spain, but I almost feel like I got a first-hand view.

Honeymoon time? Here at Global Basecamps, we’re always looking for an excuse to try new things in exciting places around the world. For some intrepid travelers, the idea of lounging on a white sandy beach and sipping Mai Tais sounds dreadfully boring. It’s memories you’re looking for, right? We’ve scoured our featured destinations and compiled a list of 5 delightfully adventurous and unique honeymoon ideas to inspire the explorer inside you. Next in the series, we take a trip to the ever wild and dramatic landscapes of a Tanzania Safari, as featured in National Geographic Traveler's Top 50 Tours of a Lifetime 2014 as a part of our Beyond the Big 5: Uganda, Tanzania & The Spice Island trip.
Untamed wilderness, extreme landscapes, breathtaking wildlife, and truly unique experiences. This country has all the makings of an enviable honeymoon spot. Climb to the “rooftop of Africa” at the peak of Mt. Kilimanjaro, see the Big Five on a luxury safari, relax in a cabana on the Spice Islands, or explore the fascinating cultural depth of Tanzania, the choice is your's.
For wildlife enthusiasts, the wide grasslands of the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro crater are brimming with big game. In the expansive Serengeti, daily game drives will bring you up close to iconic big cats and herd animals. In some areas, walking safaris will get you even closer to the action. Don’t worry, they’re safe! For most of the year, viewing the great Wildebeest Migration from the intimate setting of your luxury mobile tented camp is also a strong possibility. The 25 km wide Ngorongoro Crater, which was formed by the collapse of a massive volcano, is home to some 20,000 large animals including lion, cheetah, and zebra. After roaming the vast area you’ll see why it’s often been described as the 8th wonder of the world. The crater is the largest intact caldera on the planet and, fittingly, harbors some of the biggest elephants in Africa. Blending the perfect amount of adventure and comfort, a luxury Tanzania safari will make for an unforgettably romantic expedition.
At a staggering 19,341 feet Mt Kilimanjaro is sure to be one of the most impressive sights of your new life together. Not for the faint of heart, climbing the formidable mountain on your honeymoon will make your trip the stuff of legends! The arduous trek to the Uhuru peak is possible regardless of the time of year, taking you through farmland to tropical rain forest then over barren volcanic areas on your way to the ice-capped summit. The views on this trek are absolutely spectacular, culminating with watching the sun rise and set over the Great Rift Valley. Travel simply doesn't get much more romantic than that. The Kilimanjaro Macheme Trek is ideal if you want to take your time enjoying the continually shifting landscapes and is also one of the most affordable routes available.
Alright, so white sandy beaches aren't all bad, right? If trekking through rugged terrain for a few days isn't quite the unique honeymoon you had in mind, Tanzania’s coast is where you want to be. Zanzibar, also called the Spice Islands, has served as an important stop for Arab, Persian, and European traders for over 1,000 years. The islands also happen to be surrounded by gleaming turquoise ocean waters where the famous Mnemba Atoll encircles a reef with some of the best diving in east Africa. Easily added to any safari itinerary, Zanzibar is home to long stretches of picture-perfect beaches where locals have fished for ages. Matemwe Beach Village, one of our favorite accommodations, feels as close to paradise as you can get. Take a few days to wind down after an exciting trip and really savor each other's company. Kick off your new life together with a bit of indulgence, we know you deserve it.
Seeing Tanzania's impressive wildlife while wandering through one-of-a-kind natural areas will make any honeymoon unique. Connecting with the many diverse cultures of the country will make it unforgettable. Some of the activities are definitely for adventurous honeymooners but the experiences will result in stories to treasure. Visiting the Hadzabe people, some of the last hunter-gatherers on the planet, can entail an exciting lesson in hunting small mammals. If hunting's not your thing, trek alongside the Masaai near the village of Esilalei (Toothbrush Tree) in the Masaai Heartlands. At night you'll both be treated to elders and morani (warriors) singing and dancing around the campfire. The Chagga people reside in the foothills of Mt Kilimanjaro in Marangu. Stay a few nights with these fascinating people to enjoy the surrounding caverns and waterfalls fed by the snows of Kilimanjaro and to exchange stories at the local wilderness lodge.

VISP is a training program for improving active rehearsal in spatial working memory.
In VISP the client has a bird's-eye view of a number of ships on the ocean. Some of the ships are indicated in turn (e.g. they are illuminated or disappear). This is the memorizing phase. In the rehearsal phase that follows, the client is encouraged in various ways to practice rehearsal. He must subsequently reproduce the sequence in which the ships were indicated (recall phase).
Rehearsal processes can improve short-term and long-term memory. However, rehearsal is not a form of simple storage but a controlled and attention-based series of retrievals and re-encodings of material, the aim being to maintain this material from perceptual processing or long-term memory in the focus of attention.
Spatial attention is the central process in spatial rehearsal – just as subvocal articulation is the key function for verbal rehearsal. For example, we let our gaze travel repeatedly from one location to another, thereby allowing our attention to shift sequentially between various spatial positions and protecting this spatial information against forgetting.
The VISP training program has 18 difficulty levels. The demands on visuospatial working memory are varied in a number of ways. At some levels the ships move, while at others they remain motionless at anchor. Across the levels there is an increase in the number of ships that the client must actively rehearse and reproduce. The number of ships on the screen and the length of time for which they are highlighted also vary.
Through various forms of guidance the client is trained to improve his remembering of the ships’ positions by practicing sequential rehearsal during the rehearsal phase. The rehearsal aids are gradually reduced as the client progresses through the levels. At the outset the ships are highlighted again during the rehearsal phase in the same order as during the memorizing phase. Later the ships are shown in the rehearsal phase without highlighting, so that the client must now shift his attention between the positions unaided. At the higher difficulty levels the ships eventually disappear and the client must click with the mouse to indicate where the highlighted ships were previously seen.

Still, I'm a musician. And it all relates to video. When I was inspired by Elizabeth McClung's weekend adventure challenge to cut a video with every one's pictures and video, I began thinking about the music before I had seen any of the images. For me, cutting often is all about the music, it certainly begins there. Particularly if it is images only; music becomes tremendously important. In the video business we call this "music video" style editing; not in the annoying lip syncing, belly button flashing, hair flipping, bling flashing actually promoting a song sort of way, but simply putting image to music, or the other way around.
For the Weekend Adventure video I wanted something upbeat with a nice pace to reflect the fun implicit in the images but I always wanted something with a little substance, with lyrics that conveyed optimism and yet could also understand the poignancy of Elizabeth's challenge: Go out, live life, have fun, cause life oft times throws you a curve ball regardless of what you may be planning. Jem's It's Just a Ride fit the bill perfectly. An upbeat, catchy melody, and a message that was life affirming because it acknowledged that the ride is filled with bumps and detours and doors opening in your path but it's still a ride and all rides should be enjoyed.
When I sang the song in my head (even singing in my head caused my cat Gypsy to wince, that is how pathetic I am) I looked at the images on the computer and it all just came together for me. In my editing style the song goes down first ... first, even though this is a video. Music first so the images could follow the music. Sure, I had an idea what I wanted the images to do; grouping them by "adventure" starting off with each individuals pics in a group to help with identification (I had some quotations rolling as well) and theme. That was pretty obvious and I certainly could have done that without music. But video has a rhythm. It has a rhythm even without music, without a soundtrack. We've all seen static images left on too long ... it can illicit a physical sensation that is almost painful, like your chest tightening. Maybe that's just me. I feel it. An image not given enough time I feel right behind the eyes, like a brief flaring headache. So I put the music down first, and let that be the rhythm of the images.
In the editing software that I use (Final Cut Pro for all the geeks in the house) I can set a duration for any still image I bring into the program. The default is 10 seconds .. way, way, way too long. I have two presets: One at five seconds and one at four. Four seconds is actually how long I want the images to last on screen. I think that duration gives even a completely static image enough time to "tell its story" to give its information without overstaying its welcome, if you will. So why the five seconds? Because if you put transitions on either side of the image (like a dissolve, fade to black etc) that eats up some of the time that each image lives on the screen.
That length is not a hard and fast rule of course. If you watch the Weekend Adventure video, there is a section just before the chorus where Jem sings "break down, don't you break down, break down .." and I cut photos into each one of the "break downs" which is less than four seconds, more like two seconds or so. I'm betting that those photos don't seem less than half the length of others, because the images are moving and they are matched to the music in a way that it makes sense; it flows.
I think I've always seen images and music as elements that should not only exist together, but need to go together to be at their most effective. This probably comes from the movies. A great soundtrack does not just accompany a movie, it enhances it, improves it, embellishes it. The Third Man, directed by Carol Reed; the use of the zither as Joseph Cotton chases Orson Welles around the streets and through the sewers of post war Vienna ... the jarring music and Reed's off kilter camera angles and the brilliant black and white chiaroscuro all combined to give those scenes a breathless, edgy quality. Combined, mind you. Reed's camera work and editing is brilliant but that music adds so much to the scene, it would not be as effective without it.
There are dozens of examples; a bit more recently The Ghost and the Darkness, set in colonial Africa, uses African inspired music to great effect. The music is heavily percussive and filled with chants and not only does it reflect the film's location, it pushes the movie pace. In the early scenes, when Val Kilmer arrives in Africa to build his bridge, all optimistic and filled with testosterone, the music is big, orchestral, effusive and with the African rhythm more subtle, hidden under the strings. As the story progresses and the man eating lions begin to terrorize the area, as all of Kilmer's beautiful clean engineering is destroyed by feral violence, the strings are stripped away from the soundtrack; the drums come out, thudding like blood and the chants become more guttural, grunting, like the hunger of the lions and the fear of the men that leaves breathing short and blood hammering. The scenes are not cut to the beat but the beat informs them, it adds the poetry to the language of the visual images.
I certainly don't aspire to such artistry but I think I understand that power of music to inform image. I have a certain reputation for it in my field. I have worked with other editors on long, complex corporate videos; usually in such cases where the bulk of the video is highly expository, there is a desire to break up the talking heads and close up shots of steel presses with musical montages. These little scenes provide a reprise from the pure information but they still must have a purpose, they still must illustrate something about the product or company. Often, working on these kinds of videos the refrain was "let Kellar do the freaking montage".
Cutting to music is more than just matching cuts to the beat. It is understanding how images need to match up to the rhythm; when cutting to extremely fast beats I like detail shots, extreme close ups, like a pair of eyes or a just the logo from a large machine or the curve of a neck of a bottle of chef sauce (hey, I never said corporate video was romantic). In corporate video you use, largely, instrumental music, because you do not want to distract from the imagery and the message.
That kind of cutting is challenging, both on a technical level as well as a creative one. Where it gets more purely creative for me (let me whisper the word "artistic" in your ear in my most manly of voices) is not just cutting images to the beat, its using music to illustrate the image. This is where you you lay down the images first then stripe in the music afterwards ("striping" is a perfectly archaic video term for inserting a video element, it has to do with the way old school video decks used helical heads to record image and sound onto tape ... wake up, we're done with the geek speak now). Here, the challenge is to find the music that not just compliments the image, but illustrates it. I've been told I have a talent in this area. My friend Karen Baldwin-Porter, an actual for real can play an instrument musician asked me to put together a memorial slideshow for her husband David; when she saw it she told me "You got me with the music, I knew you would get me with the music" I created a similar slideshow as a memorial to Collette's mother Margaret ... and really, you know, I'm happy to do it, but its a duty I do not want to make a habit of. People also complimented the music, were even surprised at the song choices but agreed that it gave impact to the pictures. You can also take a look at this Hayley video where I had some fun cutting to the music.

While we gave Fallout 4 a rather good score of 8/10, we do know that the game has its fair share of technical “difficulties” — a fact that we accounted for in our review.
With that in mind, the PlayStation LifeStyle staff weighs in on the Fallout 4 bugs that haven’t been patched just yet, and whether giving good games — and established franchises — a “pass” is OK.
Check out the staff responses below, and as usual, opinions are split.
Did you buy Fallout 4? What do you think of it so far? Do you agree with some of the 9s and even perfect scores the game has gotten? Sound off what you think of this whole thing and let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Dear Jackie, Saddrudin and Sigrid. Thank you very much indeed for agreeing to be my reviewers. I could not be more pleased.
I am attaching my paper, Living Hope and Creativity as educational standards of judgement for review. I look forward very much to engaging with you about it.
Hi, Moira. This article is a true pleasure to read. I find it inspirational, influential and exciting! This article is ready for publication in my opinion.
The following are just some ideas to consider. None of them is essential to the value of the paper but may contribute to strengthening it. I inserted page numbers on the article which started around 50 (not sure why) and thus, I am attaching the paper with this numbering. My comments are in italics.
p. 53 In addition, the writing of this article is helping me to understand the ways in which my own and others’ creativity and hope have become living educational standards of judgement for me in my current practice at the Open University. Not clear how others' creativity become standards of judgement for you??
p. 58 Peter, grieving for his dead father and wondering how to be a man when he was only eleven, asked whether he could be in charge of the lifeboats. I found that unutterably touching and had to push back the tears. Alison [acting as the captain of the ship] said yes, that was an excellent idea. Alison is a very special girl: she has empathy in spades, which is unusual in someone who also loves to be in charge. Her first decision of responsibility seemed a fair one and I smiled at her. Should these quotes from your writing have page numbers?
remarked on my fussiness with the use of written language. We do share this ‘fussiness’!
On 5.9.18. Alison and I had a conversation about how she was going to present some of her findings, which would mean having to cut some aspects back in order to accord with the stringent word-count. In my experience this can be a difficult time for a student, who can be emotionally as well as intellectually invested in their work. Writing a dissertation is often a creative process (Kahl, 2012; Yoo, 2017) which, to my understanding, is a process that involves not only the intellect, but the emotional and even the spiritual dimensions of a person. This was my personal experience of writing up my M.Ed. dissertation (Laidlaw, 1988) and my Ph.D. thesis (1996). This resonated with me: in 2001-2, I had to remove 20,000 words from my doctoral thesis as I was over the 100,000 word limit!!!
p. 70 Video 2. Giulia and Moira 2.7.18. Would a script of part of this video strengthen your argument? There's a line in there about discipline that might be appropriate and another about where "we“ is permissible – I liked that explanation!
Should these be G. Carozzi?
p. 71 Video 3. Giulia and Moira: 6.9.18.
Would some the part on ‘power with’ near the end be important to pull out of the script?
You are a powerful writer and thinker and it has been my pleasure to respond to your article.
Dear Jackie. Thank you so much for your encouraging, analytical and constructive comments. I am really touched by how you have responded to the paper. It was mostly a pleasure to write, although in places, like where I let Richard down, I found it extremely painful. I do like all the points you've made, and the one that most challenges me (quite rightly) is about how others' creativity can become an educational standard for me. You are right when you say I haven't made this explicit at all, and it's crucial.
I will go through each of your comments in turn and amend the paper where appropriate. THANK YOU AGAIN!
I care more about this paper than any other paper I've written in my career. I think I have started to grow educationally. Not quite sure precisely how, but something's stirring.
Thank you for writing such a beautiful paper, Moira, and for asking me to be on your reviewing team! I have truly enjoyed reading your paper. Not least your lively educational narratives. I love the way you use them in your article.
I have a few comments for you to consider. First, I believe there is a saying: “Less is more”. You have included three narratives and two sets of data from your recent supervision, five stories. I suppose you have considered that you want to show them all, maybe you can make it even more explicit to the reader why. Your explanation of why you chose to the two students is enlightening to me. You mention your PhD-student, but then you leave her out. Why mention her?
Secondly; have you read Freire’s book Pedagogy of Hope? I think you could strengthen the argument why hope is such a vital educational value.
Thirdly, you present some valuable concepts for discussing forms of power. However, this beginning discussion comes before we have read the narratives. In my opinion, this discussion could be even more interesting if it were to come after the narratives (before the conclusion of the paper), and elaborated to enhance the understanding of how constructive use of power and power distribution may serve to enhance creativity and hope. What do you think?
In the conclusion, you write that your insight about how your living theory resonate or deviate from others’ is a kind of triangulation. I can understand that, however, I do not find in your paper that you have done this. Have you?
Again, thank you for an insightful paper, Moira!
Hi Sigrid. Thank you for your review. I have read it with real interest and an grateful for the insight and depth of your feedback. I will reflect on your comments and amend the paper accordingly. I will wait until the third reviewer has made his comments and then post my latest edition in response to each review.
Firs of all, i must say congratulations Moira for creating such a wonderful opportunity for me and for the living theory community to learn and enjoy powerful insights. In this paper the most beautiful thing that personally inspired me was the educative endeavors (between Moira and her research students) that appears to be very much natural in terms of how living theory research supervisors and supervisees engage in a rigorous process of co-evolving with a relationship that flourishes hope and creativity which Moira calls generating educational knowledge.
I found this critical-creative engagement between you and both of Alison and Giulia outstanding. In both the case the relationship found very interesting that served the purpose of developing creativity and hope as your embodied values of practice. For example in case of Alison, through email texts and dialogical logic, which play vital role in this case, show how you could keep Alison working on her ideas (which initially you were not thought would make a sense in DM). There at the same time making her realize that you need more convincing ways of her creativity to justify her claims to build a strong link with the subject matter that you were interested in as part of the demand of the course that you were teaching, could enable her to be more creative and hopeful to work on her ideas independently. This is what you have wonderfully created the space for developing creativity and carry hope in her ideas to come true in her life. And i think this to happen in students life (i.e., experiencing such a development in a student' life) is the most challenging job for living theorist that you have perfectly done it.
However, my little worry is about the more thick descriptions (I might be wrong but it looks too lengthy, e.g., in case of Alison's the text is too long) of this story which even through some few conversations and emails can serve the purpose briefly. If it is possible you can just shorter the text in Asison' case like Giulia' case and you can put the more details of the conversations with Alison in Appendix part for readers to get more clarity if they need. Secondly, i have found prologue part little bit difficult to develop a strong connection of the text (in prologue) with the two cases you came up with. If possible just revisit the few early paragraphs otherwise its oky. I have also few comments here and there in the paper attached please.
I believe, this paper is almost ready for the publication. Congratulations once again!
Many many thanks for your very helpful review, Sadruddin. I will look carefully at your comments on the paper and again on this page, and then, with my responses to my other reviewers' insights, I will post the paper again at this site.
Dear Jackie, Sigrid and Sadruddin.
I have gone through my paper and worked on the points that you raised. I outline them below.
· The page numbers in the stories have been added.
· I have added something to Video Two about Giulia’s creative response to the ‘linear’ challenge of the form of the dissertation. I think this is more compelling than the issues raised about discipline and the ‘we’.
· I have corrected the wrong initial for Giulia’s name.
· I have moved most of the reflections and explanations about power to the Conclusion, as I think this strengthens the deliberations about the connections between hope and creativity as educational – a point Sigrid raised later.
· I feel all five case-studies are important and have flagged up in the paper why I have used them. I have also introduced the Kimmy story at the beginning and offered a rationale for its inclusion and repetition at the end.
· I have integrated very helpful insights from Freire in the book you mentioned. I’ve bought it and have read it from cover to cover. Marvellous book! Thanks for the tip.
· I have placed the power explanations in the conclusion, rather than after the Part Two case-studies, as power is an issue in its many different forms, and is connected to the quality of the educational processes. I think the reflections are better there and strengthen the links between power issues and hope, creativity and education.
· I have cut out the mention of triangulation through the EJOLTS papers because I don’t have direct proof of it and it is not in fact the focus of the paper.
· In cutting down the detail of the case-study material in Part Two, although having with Giulia increased it a little in terms of content (because of Jackie's review and because I agree with it) and added a couple of paragraphs here and there on the advice of the other reviwers, the word-count of the paper is now shorter than it was before by about 500 words. I have cut out the details that add nothing to the flow or the significant content. I hope this is now sufficient. I feel cutting down any more would harm the quality of the insights we are expressing.
· I don’t feel the full material from Giulia and Alison is necessary to add into the appendices. The Educational Stories are there in full (Appendices One and Two) as the detail of the stories in terms of educational solutions to problems are raised with more than with the particular individuals focused on in the main paper and may offer readers richer contextual insights.
· I hope your misgivings about the Prologue have now been covered in this new version.
I hope these amendments satsify you. I feel that their inclusion has strengthened the paper and I thank you very much for your constructive feedback.
Thanks for your efforts to enrich your paper based on reviewers comments/suggestions. I am reading the paper and will get back to you soon with my final views/ decision on your insightful paper.
Hi, Sadruddin. Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. I hope the paper is now a more complete read for you. I recognise that I haven't done everything you asked in terms of shortening Part Two's data, although the whole is now fewer words! I hope it still does what you hoped.
Once again thanks for providing such a wonderful opportunity to read an improved version of your paper that i enjoyed a lot.
Yes, I can understand that you "haven't done everything" I "asked in terms of shortening Part Two's data, although the whole is now fewer words" that is fine and this altogether also fulfills the word limit. However, your justifications makes better sense to me.
Now, this paper fully meets the criteria for publication and I recommend this article for publication.
Congratulations for this great contribution!
Hi Sadruddin. My grateful thanks for your kind comments. I have found the whole process of writing and reviewing the paper very educational from beginning to end, and I know I have learnt a lot. As a result of your and the other reviewers' comments I can see how much stronger the paper now is as a claim to know something worth knowing!!
I want to thank you again for your insightful article, it is truly educational. The conclusion is now better showing how creativity and hope are linked, and vital educational values. I loved reading it.
The paper is ready for publishing.
1) In the above video, in particular I want to draw your attention to our discussion around form and content (23:20 – 24:32) The numbers here do not seem to correspond with the video which is only 4 min long?
2) …. With me the creativity is realised my facilitation of her to create her own space in which her own creativity… Should it be BY my facilitation?
Oh, thank you, Sigrid. I am so glad you like the revisions. I wouldn't have been able to do them were it not for you and the other reviewers' comments: they have helped me to signpost more clearly what it was I was really trying to say, or should have said!
I will make the corrections and then let you know.
Hi, Moira. Once again, I enjoyed reading your article. Moving the power issues to the end strengthens the paper as do the changes in the response to the video.
This is a major contribution to our still-emerging understandings of creating living-theories as means to improve ourselves, to influence others to consider values as standards of judgement and to contribute to the flourishing of humanity.
I recommend this article for publication.
Oh wow! Thanks so much, Jackie, for your response. I am really glad you like it.
