David Martyn Lloyd-Jones 1899-1981 and twentieth-century evangelicalism.
No full textThe purpose of this thesis was to demonstrate the significance of the life and ministry of David Martyn Lloyd-Jones in post-war British evangelicalism and to show that, so far as Protestant churches in England and Wales were concerned, no history of the period can afford to ignore him. It is our contention that despite differences of opinion and self- marginalization Lloyd-Jones was and has remained a major force in evangelical thinking. In order to understand how this developed the thesis has been structured along thematic lines highlighting events, persons and questions. The study begins by setting the stage with a biographical chapter and goes on to examine the kind of impact that Lloyd-Jones's preaching had on Christians of all denominations. He believed preaching to be the greatest need of the day and the position of this thesis is that preaching was Lloyd-Jones's greatest contribution to twentieth- century Christianity. As a preacher he attracted one of London's largest congregations and in chapter three we look at the history and nature of Westminster Chapel comparing it with neighbouring ministries, and establishing the kind of people who went to hear him. Chapters four and five ascertain the factors which shaped Lloyd-Jones's views on the church and show how his Reformed evangelicalism led in a separatist as opposed to an ecumenical direction and finally, to a position which was neither Congregational nor Presbyterian. Our further argument is that while he favoured unity among believers his separatist ecclesiology only exacerbated the situation and left evangelicals more divided than before. Chapters six to eight evaluate Lloyd-Jones's background, the nature of his leadership and the extent of his influence - factors which either shaped or were the outcome of his ministry - and looks at the issues which these questions raise
Introduction: an introduction to applying cognitive behavioural therapeutic approaches in sport
No full textMany of the tools we use in sport psychology are derived from cognitive behavioural therapies (CBTs). However, there are limited case studies in the literature detailing precisely how CBTs are used with athletes. Many of the dominant theories in sport psychology, even the overly abstracted ones, have clear links to CBTs even if CBT literature is not referenced. This book brings together a collection of case studies detailing how practitioners use different CBTs with athletes. In this first chapter, the authors introduce the rationale and aims of the book “Applying Cognitive Behavioural Therapeutic Approaches in Sport”. The CBTs at the centre of the book are revealed, and some rationale is provided for why a book like this is currently needed in the field. The authors also offer some commentary of psychological skills training as it pertains to the philosophy and mechanics of cognitive-behavioural approaches to sport psychology

Repurposing Grape Marc in marlborough: The Way Forward - from Assessment of Options to Next Steps
No full textFive options for repurposing grape marc in Marlborough have been investigated in the techno-enviro-economic analyses presented in two reports and at two fora . The two fora were attended by wine industry representatives. A number of the participants attending the second forum have agreed to establish a Working Group. A first meeting is planned, to which representatives of the major peak bodies and wine industry groups will be invited. The Working Group will determine the option or options to take to Stage II development.
This study was initiated by the Marlborough District Council and is funded in part by them and by the Waste Minimisation Fund. The motivation to consider alternatives for repurposing grape marc has a number of contributing factors; (i), the quantity of grape marc is large, estimated in 2019 at 46,000 tonnes from 305,467 tonnes of pressed grapes, which produce an estimated 218 million litres of wine; (ii), the vineyard area is expanding rapidly, from 25,135 ha (2017) to 27,808 ha (2020). (iii), earlier attempts to compost grape marc led to prosecution of some operators for poor environmental outcomes; (iv), direct land-spreading of raw grape marc has arisen as the preferred activity but is not without environmental risk; (v), both direct land-spreading and composting require land and necessitate take-back arrangements with winegrowers; and (vi), neither composting nor direct land-spreading offer the opportunity to value add.
All five options investigated here avoid that risk. They are:
• best-practice composting;
• drying to make dried grape marc for sale;
• combustion to generate steam to make electricity;
• gasification to produce electricity in gas engines and excess heat; and,
• pyrolysis to produce biochar/charcoal and excess heat.
Some calculations are also included for comparison with direct land-spreading of raw grape marc. A number of these options have viable commercialisation pathways that balance positive environmental outcomes with volume reduction of grape marc and profitability. They all require capital investment. This report summarises the options and presents the next steps towards commercialisation. The Working Group will further assess and refine these options.falseMDC websiteMarlborough District Counci
Stress Inoculation Training (SIT)
No full textA number of coping skills reflect the central role of cognition in determining a person's response to events, especially under high levels of stress and anxiety, and especially in the service of maintaining and improving performance levels during competition. One cognitive-behavioural intervention package, which draws on these coping skills, is stress inoculation training (SIT) developed by Donald Meichenbaum. In SIT, coping skills are practised in low stress situations before transferring them to high stress situations. Specifically, SIT consists of three overlapping stages: conceptualisation/education, skill acquisition, and transfer/application. In this chapter, research employing SIT in sport settings is summarised and the application of SIT to sport settings is outlined. Next a hypothetical case study of an athlete who is unable to perform to her potential under stress is outlined. In this case study, SIT is employed as an intervention and the three stages of SIT are outlined. The chapter concludes with an overview of practical considerations when applying SIT in sport, contextual factors that influence its effectiveness, and considerations for further research
