We, who are in a spiritually comatose state due to our sin and rebellion, insensitive to any word from God and impervious to any merely human spiritual stimulation, in chains and bondage to our own selfishness and self-centeredness, he has awakened and set free by his Spirit. This act we call regeneration, and unless you have experienced it, Jesus says, you will never understand or experience heaven.

Fearful that their mother has drowned, they decided to search for their father who is somewhere in the South Island. Danger is everywhere: settlers and local Maori are fighting over land, and lawlessness abounds. Totally unprepared for life in the wild, Ethan and Amy team up with two young strangers. But can they trust Meg, a petty thief, or Tama, an escaped Maori slave? Pinned to Amy''s clothing is the only thing of value the Melville family have left - a beautiful diamond brooch. But Amy''s brooch has not gone unnoticed - and some people will do anything to get their hands on the treasure. A riveting drama about an unlikely band of young people thrown together during the chaos of the New Zealand Wars.

Doppler ultrasound imaging modalities arguably represent one of the most complex task performed (usually in real time) by ultrasound scanners. At the heart of these techniques lies the ability to detect and estimate soft tissues or blood motion within the human body. As they have become an invaluable tool in a wide range of clinical applications, these techniques have fostered an intensive effort of research in the field of signal processing for more than thirty years, with a push towards more accurate velocity or displacement estimation. Coded excitation has recently received a growing interest in the medical ultrasound community. The use of these techniques, originally developed in the radar field, makes it possible to increase the depth of penetration in B-mode imaging, while complying with safety standards. These standards impose strict limits on the peak acoustic intensity which can be transmitted into the body. Similar solutions were proposed in the early developments of Doppler flow-meters to improve the resolution / sensitivity trade-off from which typical pulsed Doppler systems suffer. This work discusses the potential improvements in resolution, sensitivity and accuracy achievable in the context of modern Doppler ultrasound imaging modalities (taken in its broadest sense, that is, all the techniques involving the estimation of displacements, or velocities). A theoretical framework is provided for discussing this potential improvements, along with simulations for a more quantitative assessment. Colour Flow Imaging (CFI) modalities are taken as the main reference technique for discussion, due to their historical importance, and their relevance in many clinical applications. The potential achievable improvement in accuracy is studied in the context of modern velocity estimation strategies, which can be broadly classified into narrowband estimators (such as the "Kasai" estimator still widely used in CFI) and time shift based wideband strategies (normalised crosscorrelation estimator used, for instance, in applications like strain or strain rate estimation, elastography, etc.). Finally, simulations and theoretical results are compared to experimental data obtained with a simple custom-designed experimental set-up, using a single-element transducer.

Sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBD), including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), are prevalent yet often undiagnosed conditions that significantly impact public health. SRBD are associated with serious health conditions, such as cardiovascular, metabolic, respiratory, dental, and other diseases. The American Dental Association recommends that dentists screen for SRBD due to their unique position seeing patients frequently and their orofacial expertise to observe SRBD risk factors. Despite this recommendation, adherence among dentists is low, potentially due to perceived barriers and a lack of confidence in screening processes. The study aimed to explore dentists'' attitudes, perceptions, and experiences regarding SRBD screening.

This dissertation draws from national and regional archives to argue that many important aspects of forestry science, education, and culture in colonial Australia, India, and South Africa developed according to unique local environmental, political, social, and cultural influences. Local environmental constraints, combined with unique cultures of experimentation, encouraged the innovation of new scientific methods for forming timber plantations that differed from existing European and British methods. Debates over how to create forestry schools to train foresters in each region emphasized local problems and contexts rather than focusing primarily on continental European precedents or methods. The culture of foresters in each region corresponded to local cultures and social conditions as much as to a larger imperial ethos inculcated by training in continental European or British forestry schools.
