God\u27s Word in His Mission

Like it or not-and most of them don\u27t-Christian lay people of all denominations find themselves drawn into a struggle splitting the worldwide Christian church into two opposing camps. How much of the Bible is to be understood literally, and how much of it is properly understood to be picture language? Is the Bible to be regarded entirely as a piece of human literature subject at all points to correction by modern research? Or is it exclusively a divine creation? Must it be presupposed that when man\u27s historical, geographical, or scientific knowledge conflicts with this book, it is always 20th-century man who is wrong? What does it mean to accept the Bible on its own terms? What does it mean to take it exactly as it is? Is the account of the creation of Adam and Eve to be taken literally? What kind of a story is the book of Jonah meant to be

Brake Failure as Negligence Per Se

Although numerous automotible accidents have been caused by brake failure, the courts have yet to concur on a rule as to the drivers\u27 liability when the brakes fail without the driver\u27s knowledge that they were defective. In Ohio, the driver is held to be negligent per se for the injuries resulting from an unforeseen brake failure

Fuzzy-Neural Cost Estimation for Engine Tests

This chapter discusses artificial computational intelligence methods as applied to cost prediction. We present the development of a suite of hybrid fuzzy-neural systems for predicting the cost of performing engine tests at NASA’s Stennis Space Center testing facilities. The system is composed of several adaptive network-based fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS), with or without neural subsystems. The output produced by each system in the suite is a rough order of magnitude (ROM) cost estimate for performing the engine test. Basic systems predict cost based solely on raw test data, whereas others use preprocessing of these data, such as principal components and locally linear embedding (LLE), before entering the fuzzy engines. Backpropagation neural networks and radial basis functions networks (RBFNs) are also used to aid in the cost prediction by merging the costs estimated by several ANFIS into a final cost estimate

The role of mobile technology in promoting social inclusion among adults with intellectual disabilities

Background: Mobile technology has the potential to assist adults with intellectual disabilities to initiate and maintain social connections in important areas of their lives, such as family, friends and work/volunteering. Method: The present study investigated how specific aspects of mobile device/app use are associated with the social inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities. The study also examined what background attributes were associated with particular patterns of mobile device/app use and social inclusion. Results: The findings revealed that the use of mobile technology among adults with intellectual disabilities was positively associated with their social inclusion with family, friends and work/volunteering. There were also some key background attributes associated with participants’ use of mobile technology and the extent to which mobile technology assisted their social inclusion. Conclusions: Implications for practice and policy are discussed
