High Impact Christianity

What is vision? Every great work and every great person who has done anything for Jesus Christ has come underneath the influence of a vision. Vision is the ability to focus on God\u27s plan for the world while anticipating his power working through you to accomplish that plan. It is a focus on God\u27s plan, and that is the gospel. That has been his plan from the very beginning. That will be his plan from the until the very end is that his plan for the world is the fact that he sent his son, Jesus Christ, all God and all man into this world, sacrificed him on the cross, came back alive to offer us life eternally life abundantly, to offer us joy, love, to offer us peace and offer us a hope within our dysfunction and in our pain

Leadership That Makes a Difference

Leadership has nothing to do with titles or position. It has everything to do with influence. Influence is the ability to impact or to affect another person\u27s thoughts and behaviors. Look at Jesus Christ. He comes to the world. And how does he choose to impact the generation that he found himself in

The Development of Student Conceptions of the Earth-Sun Relationship in an Inquiry-Based Curriculum

This investigation examined conceptual change in three fifth-grade students as they participated in a curriculum on Earth's surface temperature. Data were collected via individual interviews and classroom observations and interactions, and were analyzed by comparing the students' thinking at various points before, during and after the unit. Throughout the study, the students exhibited misconceptions identified in current literature as well as novel misconceptions of their own. Although the curriculum was found to be partially effective, the students retained some misconceptions with which they began the study, revealing that conceptual understanding may be more fragmentary than theory-like, and that the depth of one's prior knowledge affects how readily new knowledge is constructed. Educational levels: Graduate or professional

Sexual Purity

want to read a passage of scripture for you out of First Corinthians, Chapter six. And if you have your Bible, I\u27d like you to turn there with me. First Corinthians, Chapter six, and then we\u27ll be flipping to First Thessalonians, Chapter four, First Corinthians, Chapter six. Everything is permissible for me, but not everything is beneficial. Everything is permissible for me, but I will not be mastered by anything. Food for the stomach and the stomach for food, verse thirteen. But God will destroy them both. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord and the Lord for the body

A Big Data Architecture for Digital Twin Creation of Railway Signals Based on Synthetic Data

Industry 5.0 has introduced new possibilities for defining key features of the factories of the future. This trend has transformed traditional industrial production by exploiting Digital Twin (DT) models as virtual representations of physical manufacturing assets. In the railway industry, Digital Twin models offer significant benefits by enabling anticipation of developments in rail systems and subsystems, providing insight into the future performance of physical assets, and allowing testing and prototyping solutions prior to implementation. This paper presents our approach for creating a Digital Twin model in the railway domain. We particularly emphasize the critical role of Big Data in supporting decision-making for railway companies and the importance of data in creating virtual representations of physical objects in railway systems. Our results show that the Digital Twin model of railway switch points, based on synthetic data, accurately represents the behavior of physical railway switches in terms of data points

The future of factories: Different trends

The technological advancements promote the rise of the fourth industrial revolution, where key terms are efficiency, innovation, and enterprises’ digitalization. Market globalization, product mass customization, and more complex products need to reflect on changing the actual design methods and developing business processes and methodologies that have to be data-driven, AI-assisted, smart, and service-oriented. Therefore, there is a great interest in experimenting with emerging technologies and evaluating how they impact the actual business processes. This paper reports a comparison among the major trends in the digitalization of a Factory of the Future, in conjunction with the two major strategic programs of Industry 4.0 and China 2025. We have focused on these two programs because we have had experience with them in the context of the FIRST H2020 project. European industrialists identify the radical change in the traditional manufacturing production process as the rise of Industry 4.0. Conversely, China mainland launched its strategic plan in China 2025 to promote smart manufacturing to digitalize traditional manufacturing processes. The main contribution of this review paper is to report about a study, conducted and part of the aforementioned FIRST project, which aimed to investigate major trends in applying for both programs in terms of technologies and their applications for the factory’s digitalization. In particular, our analysis consists of the comparison between Digital Factory, Virtual Factory, Smart Manufacturing, and Cloud Manufacturing. We analyzed their essential characteristics, the operational boundaries, the employed technologies, and the interoperability offered at each factory level for each paradigm. Based on this analysis, we report the building blocks in terms of essential technologies required to develop the next generation of a factory of the future, as well as some of the interoperability challenges at a different scale, for enabling inter-factories communications between heterogeneous entities

Circuit training as a method of adaptation and prevention for people with type 2 diabetes

The problem encountered in the diabetic population is lack of time or a prolonged exercise session. The primary purpose of this study was, therefore, to check whether a reduced training session such as 40-minute circuit training was able to optimize VO2max levels, to identify factors that improve adherence to physical exercise. A sample of 30 subjects with an average age of 50 years (with type 2 diabetes mellitus) has been recruited in random mode. Subjects did a circuit training workout for eight weeks with a frequency of 3 weekly sessions of 40 minutes each for a total of 120 minutes per week. The 6-minute walking test was administered in and out. The T-test for dependent samples was used to detect the difference between the two groups (p < .05). The circuit training program has led to an increase in the level of cardiorespiratory form. The average VO2max increased significantly (p < .05) compared to the basic values, with an increase of +6.08%. The circuit training carried out for 8 weeks, lasting 40 minutes with intensity between 50 and 75% of the VO2max, is able to achieve appreciable improvements on cardiorespiratory fitnes

The Via Traiana

[EN] Our historic heritage also includes within its meaning all that has to do with a large geographic extension, articulated by common characteristics, by a cultural substrate or by a historic route. This is the case of the Via Traiana in the south of Italy, which has been an object of study for its historic and cultural recuperation, and has managed to gather the efforts of different institutions and link the landmarks of the Roman road in a project of great structural coherence for the territory.[ES] El patrimonio histórico incluye también en su significado aquel que incumbe a un ámbito geográfico extenso, vertebrado por características comunes, por un substrato cultural común o por una ruta histórica. Éste es el caso de la Vía Trajana en el sur de Italia, que ha sido objeto de estudio para su recuperación histórica y cultural, y ha conseguido aunar esfuerzos de diversos organismos y vincular los hitos de la calzada romana dentro de un proyecto de gran coherencia estructural para el territorio.Salierno, L.
