When Nyamuragi, an adolescent mute, attempts to ask a young woman
in rural Burundi for directions to an appropriate place to relieve
himself, his gestures are mistaken as premeditation for rape. To
the young woman's community, his fleeing confirms his guilt,
setting off a chain reaction of pursuit, mob justice, and
Nyamuragi's attempts at explanation. Young Burundian novelist
Roland Rugero's second novel Baho!, the first Burundian novel to
ever be translated into English, explores the concepts of
miscommunication and justice against the backdrop of war-torn
Burundi's beautiful green hillsides.
Paul s statements in Romans 9 11 are considered the fundamental
texts in the New Testament underlying theological discourse about
the possibilities of salvation for Jews who did not believe in
Jesus as the Messiah. Meanwhile, the importance of the dual
contribution contained in Luke-Acts is often underestimated. This
monograph highlights the potential significance of the Gospel of
Luke. It explores the Biblical traditions about Israel s salvation
that were received by Luke and Paul, and uses textual analyses of
different portions of Luke-Acts to show that like Paul, Luke also
held out eschatological hope for Israel, although this hope was
based on a different perspective."
A Risky Solution for America: The Case Against an Article V
Convention, argues that nullification, and electing politicians who
possess a fidelity to the United States Constitution, not an
Article V Convention, are the only effective means for amending the
Constitution.
Project Mastodon: Building a twenty-first century Republican Party
explores the two-party political dynamic in the Obama era and
beyond. Through the use of mixed-methods research, Christopher J.
Schaefer develops a comprehensive program for building a more
robust and diverse Republican party.
Volume Two of Project Mastodon: Building a Twenty-First Century
Republican Party, explores Wisconsin governor Scott Walker's
meteoric rise to power, the controversy surrounding his signing of
Wisconsin Act 10, and successful reelection campaign in 2014. The
author, a field director during the 2014 reelection campaign,
chronicles his success using big data, analytics and new technology
to propel Governor Walker to a twenty percentage point victory in
the Green Bay, Wisconsin television market. Volume Two continue
where its predecessor left off, by arguing that new-style,
twenty-first century campaigns, if they are to succeed, must spend
millions of dollars on data acquisition, analytics, the hiring of
behavioral scientists, and new technology. The series' reference
section is contained exclusively in volume two of Schaefer's magnum
opus on new-style, twenty-first century campaigns.
Model-Based Exploratory Testing (MBET) is a combination of
Model-Based Testing (MBT) and Exploratory Testing (ET) methods.
MBET takes advantages of both testing methods in an attempt to
achieve better coverage and defect detection compared with using
only one test method. MBET offers the automation advantages of MBT
but also incorporates the exploratory factor of ET in an attempt to
find defects which MBT might fail to detect. In this work, we
describe the combination of MBT and ET into MBET and layout this
new testing method. Also, an empirical study is included to show
the effectiveness of MBET compared to MBT. This study shows that
MBET and MBT are complementary testing methods and could
effectively be used in unison.
Partnerships of Hope gives an inspiring account of the social
mission of Waldorf Education, describing the opportunities and
challenges of building Waldorf school communities. If you have
wondered about governance, leadership, and decision-making in
Waldorf schools and how they relate to Steiner's social intentions,
this book provides a number of insightful answers, placing them
into the larger matrix of the political and economic crises facing
Western societies. Of particular interest for the future is
Schafer's articulation of the deeper values and principles imbedded
in Waldorf Education, values which he maintains are the foundation
of a new, spiritually based and healing society.
