This thesis undertakes to investigate the influence of the sixth commandment on Paul’s ethics in Romans and 1 Corinthians. Our primary methodology is to develop a lens for reading Paul from a study of the murder commandment in the Scriptures and ancient Jewish writings. This involves an appreciation for the intertextual nature of the Scriptures and Jewish writings. We also seek to recognise the implications of Paul’s Second Temple reading context and his apostolic writing context. A preliminary question, however, must first be resolved before our research question can be meaningful: does the sixth commandment refer to killing or murdering? We conclude with an overall analysis of the influence of the murder commandment on Paul’s ethics in Romans and 1 Corinthians. / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Thesis advisor: Elida V. Laski / Use of base-10 decomposition strategy for addition in first grade is related to mathematics advantage in the later years (Geary et al., 2013), yet we know little about the strategy’s prevalence among first graders or factors contributing to its use. The present study sought to bridge this gap by testing 87 first graders in the greater Boston area. The results confirmed previous findings that showed that in the last 10 years first graders in the US have increased in frequency of base-10 decomposition. Children who had better knowledge of basic number facts used it more frequently, particularly on problems with smaller addends. Further, the study tested whether an instructional intervention would be effective in increasing reliance on base-10 decomposition. 61 of the original participants were selected to take part in an experimental intervention that taught them to execute the strategy while relying on external representations – sometimes known as manipulatives. Informed by two lines of research, the present study tested the hypothesis that the efficacy of the intervention may depend on whether one or multiple external representations are used for instruction. The results showed a dramatic increase in first graders’ mental base-10 decomposition use as a result of the intervention. Children grew in their use of the strategy at the same rates across genders, levels of basic arithmetic fluency, and working memory. Overall, the results showed that relying on multiple representations during instruction appears more beneficial to strategy use on mental arithmetic, but this benefit may be conditional on how well the children have mastered and abstracted the strategy. Implications to classroom interventions aimed to increase the use of advanced arithmetic strategies are discussed. / Thesis (PhD) — Boston College, 2016. / Submitted to: Boston College.

Tiriamajame magistriniame darbe nagrinėjamos UAB “Anykščių Varis“ kuriamų glaistytųjų elektrodų, skirtų atsparių atmosferiniai korozijai COR-TEN® grupės plienų suvirinimui, charakteristikos. Tyrimų eigoje atlikti bandymai ir kokybės tyrimas, reglamentuojamas standartu LST EN 14532-1. Tyrimo objektais pasirinkti ne tik sukurti eksperimentiniai glaistytieji elektrodai, bet ir panašios cheminės sudėties jau egzistuojantys AV-61 ir UONI-13/55 elektrodai. Atsižvelgiant į specifinę elektrodų paskirtį, remiantis atliktais bandymais ir turima gamintojų patirtimi, naujų elektrodų glaisto sudėtyje yra kiti komponentai. Papildomai glaiste yra Cr ir Ni bei Cr, Ni ir Cu miltelių. Tiriamasis darbas paremtas kuriamų glaistytųjų elektrodų charakteristikų palyginimu su jau egzistuojančiais rinkoje elektrodais. Darbą sudaro šios struktūrinės dalys: paveikslėlių sąrašas, lentelių sąrašas, įvadas, atsparūs atmosferiniai korozijai plienai, glaistytųjų elektrodų gamyba, apžvalga, kokybės ir atitikties vertinimas, tyrimo metodika ir medžiagos, tyrimo rezultatai, išvados ir siūlymai, literatūros sąrašas. Darbo apimtis – 73 psl. teksto be priedų, 38 iliustr., 34 lent., 29 bibliografiniai šaltiniai. / In the final masters degree thesis the characteristics of Ltd. "Anykščių Varis" produced coated electrodes for resistant to atmospheric corrosion COR-TEN® steel group welding are examined. Testing and quality analysis are prepared according the standard LST EN 14532-1. The experimental covered electrodes and similar chemical composition already existing AS-61 and UONI-13/55 covered electrodes used as research object in this work. New covered electrodes coating contains other components due to the specific purpose of the electrodes and experimental practice of producers. In addition, the electrodes coating consists Cr and Ni and Cr, Ni and Cu powders. Research work based on the characteristics of coated electrodes comparison with the already existing market of electrodes and compliance for welding COR-TEN® steels group. The structure of thesis consists: list of pictures, list of tables, introduction, resistant to atmospheric corrosion steels part, manufacture, overview, quality and compliance qualification of covered electrodes part, research methodology and materials, results of research, conclusions and suggestions, references. Thesis consist of: 73 p. text without appendixes, 38 pictures, 34 tables, 29 bibliographical entries.

Thesis is amimed at transport, its development within European union and finally EU transport policy. It focuses on specific issues and strategies that affect all european countries such as development of Trans-European Transport Network.
