Authority of the Father: Eternal functional subordination – Quo Vadis? by W.H. Oliver

“…This is mostly an evangelical movement and is generally concerned with the relationship between God the Father and God the Son, which is regarded as an eternal authoritative position of the Father, and an eternal subordination of the Son – against the mainline Protestant churches. …”

Endovascular Intervention for Acute Ischemic Stroke in Light of Recent Trials by Kenan Alkhalili, Nohra Chalouhi, Stavropoula Tjoumakaris, David Hasan, Robert M. Starke, Mario Zanaty, Robert H. Rosenwasser, Pascal Jabbour

“…In this paper, we review the role of endovascular treatment strategies in acute ischemic stroke and discuss the limitations and shortcomings that prevent generalization of the findings of recent trials. We also provide our experience in endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke.…”

L’installation de la Finance en France. by Benjamin Coriat

“…The consequences of the exercise of the new power of finance on firms behaviours, and more generally on the Industrial Organization of the French economy are underlined.The main thesis is that because of the massive privatizations – relayed by a series of new regulations implemented in the last three decades- France has lost the traditional mode of coordination between agents which characterized the fordist era. …”

A Note on n-Divisible Positive Definite Functions by Saulius Norvidas

“…Indeed, if f is infinite-divisible, then for each integer n>1, there is an unique g such that gn=f, but there is a n-divisible f such that the factor g in gn=f is generally not unique. In this paper, we discuss about how rich can be the class g∈PDℝ: gn=f for n-divisible f∈PDℝ and obtain precise estimate for the cardinality of this class.…”

Design and application of electrocardiograph diagnosis system based on multifractal theory by Chun-kai ZHANG, Ao,ZHANGJing-wang YIN, Pan-bo TIAN, Ying ZHOU, Chang-qing QI

“…An automatic segmentation algorithm for ECG data using differential threshold method was designed,which could identify the various ECG cycles of continuous ECG data.And it could obtain the multifractal features of multiple fractal and generalize hurst index feature of ECG data,these features were used to train artificial neural network in order to classify ECG data,the accuracy of the classifier could reach 97%.An ECG diagnosis system was implemented,which can automatically identify ECG sequences that contain multiple ECG cycles,and can automatically ignore the incomplete ECG cycle data,and could annotate every cycle of ECG data.…”

Toward an ethnohistory of Haitian pilgrimage by Terry Rey

“…Philomena/Lasyrenn in Bord-de-Mer-de-Limonade, and with a careful consideration of Kongolese religious culture (both Catholic and traditional), a convincing case is made here that pilgrimage in Haiti owes much more to Central African traditions than is generally acknowledged by scholars of Vodou, who over-emphasize the religion’s West African roots.…”

New solutions to a category of nonlinear PDEs by Bacui Li, Fuzhang Wang

“…The basic idea of the new algorithm is that if certain nonlinear partial differential equation can be converted into the form of elliptic equation, then its solutions are readily obtained. By taking the generalized Schrödinger equation as an example, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. …”

A New Hybrid Iterative Scheme for Countable Families of Relatively Quasi-Nonexpansive Mappings and System of Equilibrium Problems by Yekini Shehu

“…We construct a new iterative scheme by hybrid methods and prove strong convergence theorem for approximation of a common fixed point of two countable families of closed relatively quasi-nonexpansive mappings which is also a solution to a system of equilibrium problems in a uniformly smooth and strictly convex real Banach space with Kadec-Klee property using the properties of generalized f-projection operator. Using this result, we discuss strong convergence theorem concerning variational inequality and convex minimization problems in Banach spaces. …”
