The Canon 'Reed' Or Measuring Rod, Used As a Standard = Officially BIBLICAL CANON (‘reed’ or measuring rod, used as a standard = officially accepted list of books) Old Testament (Jewish: 24 books = Christian Protestant = 39 books ≠ Christian Catholic = 52 books): -Canon was probably established between 300 BC – 150 BC. From 4th c. on, Jews believed “the voice of God had ceased to speak directly” -Last books to be written in the Canon were Malachi (450 – 430 BC) & Chronicles (400 BC) -All canonical books appear in the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Hebrew Canon (250-150 BC) Jamnia Council: -Convened in 90 AD at Jamnia, as an informal meeting for Rabbis to discuss whether certain books should „remain‟ in the canon. No considerations given over adding or removing any however. -Books in question: Esther, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs, & Ezekiel -Christ‟s witness to the OT Canon: Lk.24:44 („Law, Prophets, Writings‟ shows 3sections of Hebrew Bible); Jn.10:31-36 (Agreed with Oral traditions, but not Canon); Lk.11:51 („Abel to Zechariah‟ shows the line of martyrs from the 1st book, Genesis, to the last, & 24th book, Chronicles) Old Testament Principles for exclusion: 1. They are full of historical and Geographical inaccuracies and anachronisms. 2. They teach false doctrines and contradict inspired scripture 3. They are poorly written, and have artificial subject matter 4. They lack prophetic power, & poetic and religious feelings Old Testament Apocryphal Books: Ecclesiasticus: (180 BC, Like Proverbs, with sayings & practical advise on making speeches…hmmm) 1st & 2nd Esdras: (150 BC, drawn from Chronicles, Ezra, Nehemiah, apocalyptic, & 7 visions) Tobit: (2nd C. BC, Pharisaic novel, laws & regulations, says almsgiving atones sin, purgatory, etc…) Judith: (2nd C. BC, Pharisaic, story about Judith cutting head off of Assyrian king, & destroying army) Prayer of Manasseh: (2nd C. BC, prayer of wicked king Manasseh, referred in 2 Chron.33:19) 1st & 2nd Maccabees: (1st C. BC, Exploits of 3 Maccabean brothers, best historical account of this period) Additions to Esther: (100 BC, full of Prayers of Esther to God to give credence to book of Esther) Wisdom of Solomon: (40 AD, Like Proverbs, sayings against scepticism, materialism, & idolatry) Baruch: (100 AD, Depicts destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD, warns against idolatry + 13 chpt. of Daniel) Bel and the Dragon: (100 AD, Against idolatry, + 14th chpt. of Daniel) Song of the 3 Hebrew Children: (100 AD, Songs, borrowing from Psalm 148) New Testament: Need for the Canon: 1) Preservation: They were prophetic, written by the apostles, so needed to be preserved. 2) Guide: Needed to know which books would be their source of authority. 3) Counter: Against the Heretics (i.e. Marcion‟s [Luke & 10 of Paul‟s Epistles] in 140 AD). 4) Standard: Against the Heresies (Monarchic, Docetic, Gnostic, Cholloridian) 5) Mission: Needed a set of books to translate into Syriac and Old Latin. 6) Persecution: Edict of Diocletion (303 AD) called for destruction of all sacred books, thus needed to know which they were. Finally accepted at councils: Hippo (393 AD) and Carthage (397 AD), though Athanasius listed all in (367 AD) Principles for inclusion or Rules of Canonicity: 1) Apostolic Authorship: Was it written by a prophet, or spokesman of God? 2) Ecclesiastical Acceptance: Was it accepted by the people of God 3) Divine Authority: Was the prophet confirmed by an act (miracle or prophecy)? 4) Divine Truth: Did the message tell the truth about God (no contradictions, or errors)? 5) Divine Power: Did it have the power of God (did it change lives)? New Testament Apocryphal Books: Gospel According to the Hebrews (65-100 AD) Epistle of Pseudo-Barnabas (70-79 AD *in Codex Sinaiticus) Epistle of Corinthians (96 AD approx.) Seven Epistle of Ignatius (100 AD) Didache, Teaching of the Twelve (100-120 AD) Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians (108 AD approx.) Shepherd of Hermas (115-140 AD *in Codex Sinaiticus) 1 2nd Epistle of Clement (120-140 AD) Apocalypse of Peter (150 AD approx.) Acts of Paul and Thecla (170 AD) Epistle to the Laodiceans (4th c.) Reasons why they were rejected: -Only had temporary or local recognition -All appended to various MSS (i.e. Shepherd of Hermas & Epistle of Barnabas in Sinaiticus) -No major canon or church council included them as inspired books. -Only acceptance was due to a reference in Canonical books (i.e. Laodiceans in Col. 4:16) QUR’ANIC CANON (Officially recognized in 1924, by Al-Azhar University, Cairo) COLLATION: 16 Codices: Zaid ibn Thabit (Mecca), Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (Kufa - no Fatiha, or S.113-114, differences in S.3:19, 39 & S.9- Bismillah, Shi‟ite readings), Abu Musa (Basra,116 Suras), Ubayy ibn Ka'b (Damascus,116 Suras) Missing Vss = 24:32 (stoning), 33:23 (Refer to Page 4 to see what the Traditions tell us about the Collation of the Qur’an) WHAT THE TRADITIONS TELL US ABOUT THE COLLATION OF THE QUR’AN: 1. Some Qur‟anic verses were lost. Many (of the passages) of the Qur‟an that were sent down were known by those who died on the day of Yamama...but they were not known (by those who) survived them, nor were they written down, nor had Abu Bakr, Umar, or Uthman (by that time) collected the Qur‟an, nor were they found with even one (person) after them. (Ibn Abi Dawud, Kitab al-Masahif p.23). 1. Much of the Qur‟an has disappeared. It is reported from Ismail ibn Ibrahim from Ayyub from Naafi from Ibn Umar who said: “Let none of you say ‘I have acquired the whole of the Qur’an’. How does he know what all of it is when much of the Qur’an has disappeared? Rather let him say ‘I have acquired what has survived.‟ (as-Suyuti, [d. 911AD] Al-Itqan fii Ulum al-Qur’an, p.524). 2. Parts of the Qur‟an have been forgotten. We used to recite a surah which resembled in length and severity to (Surah) Bara’at. I have, however, forgotten it with the exception of this which I remember out of it: “If there were two valleys full of riches, for the son of Adam, he would long for a third valley, and nothing would fill the stomach of the son of Adam but dust”. (Sahih Muslim, [d. 875 AD] Vol. 2:2286, p.501). 3. Parts have been canceled. We used to read a verse of the Qur’an revealed in their connection, but later the verse was canceled. It was: “convey to our people on our behalf the information that we have met our Lord, and He is pleased with us, and has made us pleased”. (Sahih al-Bukhari, [d. 870AD] Vol. 5:416, pg.288). 4. While others are now missing. Allah sent Muhammad (saw) with the Truth and revealed the Holy Book to him, and among what Allah revealed, was the Verse of the Rajam (the stoning of married persons, male and female, who commit adultery) and we did recite this Verse and understood and memorized it. Allah‟s Apostle (saw) did carry out the punishment of stoning and so did we after him. I am afraid that after a long time has passed, somebody will say, „By Allah, we do not find the Verse of the Rajam in Allah’s Book‟, and thus they will go astray by leaving an obligation which Allah has revealed. (Sahih al- Bukhari, [d. 870AD] Vol. 8:817, pg.539). 5. There are some verses which have been overlooked. Khuzaimah ibn Thabit said: “I see you have overlooked (two) verses and have not written them”. They said “And which are they?” He replied “I had it directly (tilqiyya - „automatically, spontaneously‟) from the messenger of Allah (saw) (Surah 9, ayah 128): „There has come to you a messenger from yourselves. It grieves him that you should perish, he is very concerned about you: to the believers he is kind and merciful‟, to the end of the surah”. Uthman said “I bear witness that these verses are from Allah”. (Ibn Abi Dawud, Kitab al-Masahif p.11). 6. Some verses which have been changed. Abu Yunus, freedman of Aishah, Mother of Believers, reported: Aishah ordered me to transcribe the Holy Qur‟an and asked me to let her know when I should arrive at the verse Haftdhuu alaas-salaati waas-salaatiil-wustaa wa quumuu lillaahi qaanitiin (2.238). When I arrived at the verse I informed her and she ordered: Write it in this way, Hafidhuu alaas-salaati waas-salaatiil-wustaa wa salaatil ‘asri wa quumuu lillaahi qaanitiin. She added that she had heard it so from the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him). (Muwatta Imam Malik, [d.795 AD] p.64). 7. And others which have been modified. Altogether al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf made eleven modifications in the reading of the Uthmanic text. ... In al-Baqarah (Surah 2.259) it originally read Lam yatasanna waandhur, but it was altered to Lam yatasannah ... In al-Ma‟ida (Surah 5.48) it read Shari ya’atan wa minhaajaan but it was altered to shir ‘atawwa minhaajaan. (Ibn Abi Dawud, Kitab al-Masahif p.117). Manuscript Variants (extant mss. available to Western researchers) • Difficulty finding complete early MSS • Keith Small: (Sura 14:35-41 – Abraham in Mecca) vs. Acts 7:1-8 (Stephen on Abraham, Isaac & UR) – 150 available MSS in the 1st 300 yrs. (i.e. between 650 – 900 AD) – Only 13 mss with Sura 14:35-41 – Suras 82-114, only 3 in late 8th c. – Suras 108-114, no extant examples exist in the first 300 years! Conclusions: Possible standardization of verses by late 7th c., but no extant MS.

  • Barrel and Overall Length Measuring Procedure
    TENNESSEE BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION Forensic Services Division Firearms/Toolmarks Standard Operating Procedures Manual Barrel and Overall Length Measuring Procedure 7.0 BARREL AND OVERALL LENGTH MEASURING PROCEDURE 7.1 Scope: One of the routine procedures conducted in a firearm examination is determining the barrel length and overall length of the firearm. 7.2 Precautions/Limitations: Accuracy is imperative to this examination. It is vitally important that the firearm examiner use calibrated measuring devices, or instruments checked against calibrated measuring devices. These measuring devices will be checked against a NIST traceable ruler prior to being placed into service. Also, care shall be taken if any object is placed down the barrel to help expedite the barrel length measurement. Only a non-marring item should be placed down the barrel. Test firing of the firearm should be performed prior to placing any item down the barrel if possible. TCA Section 39-17-1301 defines a short-barreled rifle and shotgun as having a barrel length of less than sixteen inches (16") for a rifle and eighteen inches (18") for a shotgun, or an overall firearm length of less than twenty-six inches (26"). TCA Section 39-17-1302 classifies those as prohibited weapons.

Jodhpur-NH73 INDIA ABSTRACT: Surveying is the branch of civil engineering which deals with measurement of relative positions of an object on earth’s surface by measuring the horizontal distances, elevations, directions, and angles. Surveying is typically used to locate and measure property lines; to lay out buildings, bridges, channels, highways, sewers, and pipelines for construction; to locate stations for launching and tracking satellites; and to obtain topographic information for mapping and charting. It is generally classified into two categories: Plane surveying (for smaller areas) and Geodetic surveying (for very large areas). Surveying is the art of making suitable measurements in horizontal or vertical planes. This is one of the important subjects of civil engineering. Without taking a survey of the plot where the construction is to be carried out, the work cannot begin. Dalhousie provides all type of location in a platform . Key Words : 1.Surveying

Founded in 1906 by innovative young engineer, Frank Moore, Moore & Wright has been designing, manufacturing and supplying precision measuring equipment to global industry for over 100 years. With roots fixed firmly in Sheffield, England, the company began by manufacturing a range of calipers, screwdrivers, punches and other engineer’s tools. Following investment from Mrs Wright, a shrewd Sheffield businesswoman, Frank was able to expand the business and further develop his innovative designs. By the mid-nineteen twenties, thanks to the company’s enviable reputation, Moore & Wright was approached by the UK Government to consider manufacturing a range of quality micrometers. It was in this field that Moore & Wright’s status as UK agent for the Swiss Avia range of products and subsequent acquisition of the Avia brand and manufacturing rights, proved invaluable.

  • Procedure for Adult Height
    NIHR Southampton Biomedical Research Centre The NIHR Southampton Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) has a tight quality assurance system for the writing, reviewing and updating of Standard Operating Procedures. As such, version-controlled and QA authorised Standard Operating Procedures are internal to the BRC. The Standard Operating Procedure from which information in this document has been extracted, is a version controlled document, managed within a Quality Management System. However, extracts that document the technical aspects can be made more widely available. Standard Operating Procedures are more than a set of detailed instructions; they also provide a necessary record of their origination, amendment and usage within the setting in which they are used. They are an important component of any Quality Assurance Framework, but in themselves are insufficient and need to be used and interpreted with care. Alongside the extracts from our Standard Operating Procedures, we have also made available here an example Standard Operating Procedure and a word version of a Standard Operating Procedure template. Using the example and the Standard Operating Procedure template, institutions can generate their own Standard Operating Procedures and customise them, in line with their own institutions. Simply offering a list of instructions to follow does not assure that the user is able to generate a value that is either accurate or precise so here in the BRC we require that Standard Operating Procedures are accompanied by face-to-face training. This is provided by someone with a qualification in the area or by someone with extensive experience in making the measurements. Training is followed by a short competency assessment and performance is monitored and maintained using annual refresher sessions.

Kaufmann1 and E. George Robison2,3 In the broad sense, physical habitat in streams includes all those physical attributes that influence or provide sustenance to organisms within the stream. Stream physical habitat varies naturally, as do biological characteristics; thus, expectations differ even in the absence of anthropogenic disturbance. Within a given physiographic-climatic region, stream drainage area and overall stream gradient are likely to be strong natural determi- nants of many aspects of stream habitat, because of their influence on discharge, flood stage, and stream power (the product of discharge times gradient). Summarizing the habitat results of a workshop conducted by EMAP on stream monitoring design, Kaufmann (1993) identified seven general physical habitat attributes important in influencing stream ecology: ! Channel Dimensions ! Channel Gradient ! Channel Substrate Size and Type ! Habitat Complexity and Cover ! Riparian Vegetation Cover and Structure ! Anthropogenic Alterations ! Channel-Riparian Interaction All of these attributes may be directly or indirectly altered by anthropogenic activities.

  • 2.3. DEVELOPMENT of DESIGN 2.3.1. Surveying Surveying Is The
    2.3. DEVELOPMENT OF DESIGN 2.3.1. Surveying Surveying is the technique and science of accurately determining the terrestrial or 3D space position of points and the distances and angles between them. These points are usually, but not exclusively, associated with positions on the surface of the Earth, and are often used to establish land maps and boundaries for ownership or governmental purposes. In order to accomplish their objective, surveyors use elements of geometry of engineering, mathematics, physics, and law. Surveying has been an essential element in the development of the human environment since the beginning of recorded history (ca. 5000 years ago) and it is a requirement in the planning and execution of nearly every form of construction. Its most familiar modern uses are in the fields of transport, building and construction, communications, mapping, and the definition of legal boundaries for land ownership. Method Historically, angles and distances were measured using a variety of means, such as chains with links of a known length, for instance a Gunter's Chain, or measuring tapes made of steel or invar. In order to measure horizontal distances, these chains or tapes would be pulled taut, to reduce sagging and slack. Additionally, attempts to hold the measuring instrument level would be made. In instances of measuring up a slope, the surveyor might have to "break" the measurement- that is, raise the rear part of the tape upward, plumb from where the last measurement ended. Historically, horizontal angles were measured using a compass, which would provide a magnetic bearing, from which deflections could be measured.

  • Determining Slope 3Notes
    DETERMINING SLOPE 3NOTES OBJECTIVES The purpose of this chapter is to: • Measure slope. • Calculate percent slope. • Understand the different locations that slope may be measured from. Slope What is slope? Slope is the change in elevation, measured in consistent units, from one point to another. Why would slope be a factor in evaluating a site for an onlot sewage disposal system? DRevisedETERMINING 5/12 SLOPE 3-1 How To Measure Slope Slope must be measured perpendicular to the contours of the land. Contours are lines of equal NOTES elevation. There are two ways to measure slope: 1) By taking field measurements and dividing the vertical distance by the horizontal distance (rise ÷ run), and then multiplying by 100 for percent slope. 2) By measuring the angle with an instrument. 3-2 DETERMINING SLOPE 1) VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL DISTANCES Slope can be calculated by using the rise over run method of dividing the vertical distance by NOTES the horizontal distance. Multiply the answer you get by 100 to get percent slope. vertical distance ÷ horizontal distance = slope RUN RISE DETERMINING SLOPE 3-3 SAMPLE PROBLEM Solve for the percent slope.

  • Cadastral Survey Project
    CADASTRALSURVEY LAND AND ITS DEFINITION Land is a word whose meaning has remained elusive to this day and varies according to each individual, according to his way of life. While it is lifeblood and sacred for some, it is an economic opportunity for development for others, but the emotional attachment one has to the land is the one which remains in life and even after that. Lands, territories and resources have particular cultural and spiritual significance and value for indigenous people who live there, they are the very basis for the continued existence of their societies in every part of the world. The United Nations Ad Hoc group of Experts on Cadastral Surveying and Land Information states that “Land is defined as an area of the surface of the earth together with the water, soil, rocks, minerals and hydrocarbons beneath or upon it and the air above it. It embraces all things which are related to a fixed area or point of the surface of the each, including the areas covered by water, including the sea”. • At the dawn of civilization in the history of mankind, people started to realize the value of agriculture and livestock rearing, people needed land and water for irrigation land as a resource therefore a boundary to establish ownership and safeguard land against occupation from others was inevitable and an absolute necessity. 1 • This gave birth to early surveys for establishing boundaries, classification of land for farming, grazing, habitat, recreation, economic pursuit, and social activity. This was a reason for advance of societies which later grew into kingdoms and monarchies which had always had land as the crux to expand their boundaries across the world.
