Forum: Thompson's modes of operation of ideology and depth hermeneutics as hermeneutical tools: ideology and the sermon on the Mount (Matthew 4:23-7:29) by E. K. Foshaugen

“…This methodology will disclose how one could control the masses with an ideology that claimed to benefit them; how the text can be presenting an opposing ideology to the prevailing ideologies and finally show that the text also reveals an asymmetrical relation of power and dominion between God and the hearers of the text that ultimately will benefit them. …”

Some aspects of ion-acoustic whistlers in the ionosphere in the presence of negative ions by A. K. Sur, G. C. Das, B. Chakraborty, S. N. Paul, L. Debnath

“…It is shown that the presence of negative ions introduces a critical frequency which, for equal ionic masses, is equal to the ion-cyclotron frequency. Special attention is given to the group travel time of whistlers at mid-latitude and equator so that the role of negative ions on the group travel time can be determined. …”

Chiral recognition of some D and L-amino acids by microcrystalline cellulose assisted diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy by Bowen Han, Jing He, Shaohua Huang

“…However, conventional diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy method usually fails to resolve the mixtures of chiral amino acids because of their same molecular masses, sizes, and shapes. Microcrystalline cellulose has been gradually gained more and more interest owing to its wide compatibility, surface area, excellent separation efficiency, non-toxicity, cost-effective, and mechanical stability in many fields. …”
