We read in Jesus is still on the throne. As God, He has John 1:1-3, “In the beginning was the never been caught off guard and He tells Word, and the Word was with God, and the us, “Be alert, be on guard, and wake up Word was God.

In Hebrews 1:1-2 we read, “Long ago, at We often hear John 3:16 quoted that God many times and in many ways, God spoke the Father loves the world and sent his Son to our fathers by the prophets, but in these to save us.

  • Thermal State of Permafrost in North $PHULFD
    Thermal State of Permafrost in North America: A Contribution to the International Polar Year ABSTRACT A snapshot of the thermal state of permafrost in northern North America during the International Polar Year (IPY) was developed using ground temperature data collected from 350 boreholes. More than half these were established during IPY to enhance the network in sparsely monitored regions. The measurement sites span a diverse range of ecoclimatic and geological conditions across the continent and are at various elevations within the Cordillera. The ground temperatures within the discontinuous permafrost zone are generally above -3°C, and range down to -l5oC in the continuous zone. Ground temperature envelopes vary according to substrate, with shallow depths of zero annual amplitude for peat and mineral soils. and much greater depths for bedrock. New monitoring sites in the mountains of southern and central Yukon suggest that permafrost may be limited in extent. In concert with regional air temperatures, permafrost has generally been warming across North America for the past several decades, as indicated by measurements from the western Arctic since the 1970s and from parts of eastern Canada since the early 1990s. The rates of ground warming have been variable, but are generally greater north of the treeline. Latent heat effects in the southern discontinuous zone dominate the permafrost thermal regime close to 0oC and allow permafrost to persist under a warming climate. Consequently, the spatial diversity of permafrostthermal conditions is decreasing over time. Copyright @ 2010 Crown in the right of Canada and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. KEY WORDS: permafrost; ground temperature regime: climate change; permafrost thaw; active layer: International Polar Year; North America INTRODUCTION About 30% of the permafrost in the Northern Hemisphere is in North America.

  • Tab 008C Foxe Basin Walrus Request for Decision TAH and MU RM 003
    Canadian Science Advisory Secretariat Central and Arctic Region Science Advisory Report 2013/034 ESTIMATES OF ABUNDANCE AND TOTAL ALLOWABLE REMOVALS FOR ATLANTIC WALRUS (Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus) IN THE CANADIAN ARCTIC Context Walrus in the Canadian Arctic are divided into two genetic populations comprised of seven stocks. The high Arctic population is composed of the Baffin Bay (BB), west Jones Sound (WJS) and Penny Strait-Lancaster Sound (PS-LS) stocks; the central Arctic population is composed of the north and central Foxe Basin (N-FB, C-FB) and Hudson Bay-Davis Strait (HB-DS) stocks (Figure 1). At this time, the relationship between these six stocks and walrus distributed in south Atlantic Walrus Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus and east Hudson Bay (S&E-HB) is unknown. (Jason Hamilton, DFO) Ecosystems and Fisheries Management within Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) asked Science to provide population estimates and sustainable harvest advice for Canadian walrus stocks. A previous attempt to provide this advice was unsuccessful because available stock abundance estimates and harvest information was insufficient (Stewart 2008). Aerial surveys conducted in 2007-2011 permitted the calculation of abundance estimates for all stocks except S&E-HB. This document summarizes calculated estimates of abundance and corresponding estimates of total allowable removal (TAR), developed using the Potential Biological Removal (PBR) method, for six walrus stocks. This Science Advisory Report is from the October 29 to November 2, 2012 annual meeting of the National Marine Mammal Peer Review Committee (NMMPRC). Additional publications from this process will be posted as they become available on the DFO Science Advisory Schedule as they become available.

  • Transcultural Intertextuality: Reading Asian North American Poetry
    TRANSCULTURAL INTERTEXTUALITY: READING ASIAN NORTH AMERICAN POETRY by Xiwen Mai A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (English Language and Literature) in The University of Michigan 2010 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Susan Y. Najita, Chair Professor Laurence Goldstein Professor Shuen-Fu Lin Associate Professor Sarita See © Xiwen Mai 2010 To My Parents ii Acknowledgements This project would not have been possible without the unwavering support, encouragement, and advice of my dissertation committee. My greatest intellectual debt is to Professor Susan Najita, the chair of my committee. She has not only ushered me through every step of graduate school—from the coursework of the very first semester to the completion of this dissertation—but also challenged me to think deeply about my position as a critic. Her incisive questions and invaluable comments on every draft of my chapters have sharpened my thinking and made this project a better one. Professor Laurence Goldstein has been a thoughtful and thorough reader whose passion for both studying and writing poetry inspires me. For his generous investment in this project‘s development, I owe him more than I can say. I am also fortunate to have Professor Sarita See as a committee member. It was during her seminar on Asian American literary criticism that the thought of studying Asian North American poetry first occurred to me. Our numerous conversations ever since have always brought me a renewed sense of purpose. For her wonderful humor and energy, I will always be grateful. Professor Shuen-Fu Lin has been a great source of inspiration for me as well with his vast and profound knowledge of poetry in both English and Chinese.
