The aim of this essay was to study how posters on the internet forum Flashback discuss social assistance and social assistance recipients. Research show that there is a tendency in today’s society to interpret the reasons for receiving social assistance as having individualistic causes. This is in spite of the fact that studies show that the individuals’ ability to provide for oneself often have s
Wind energy production is a section that became bigger and bigger thanks to the interests in finding new ways to produce energy that do not involve fossil fuels because of environment concerns, because of their costs and because of their limited amount. Even though wind energy was exploited also in the past, for example in wind mills, it is with wind turbines that all the problems affecting these
De negativa effekter som korruption har på såväl enskilda nationer som det globala samhället i helhet är kända och väl dokumenterade. Ändå betalas uppskattningsvis tusen miljarder amerikanska dollar varje år i mutor över hela världen och både individer och organisationer erkänner att de begått korrupta handlingar. Intresset för att bekämpa korruption har ökat väsentligt under senare år, både på nThe negative effects that corruption has on both individual nations and the global society as a whole are known and well documented. Still, an estimated one trillion US dollars (US $1.000 billion) is paid each year in bribes worldwide and both individuals and organizations testify to engaging in corrupt behavior. The interest in fighting corruption has grown significantly in recent years, both i
Uppsatsen undersöker synförlustens anledningar och innebörder i fyra verk: "Konung Oidipus" och "Oidipus i Kolonos" av Sofokles, "The Country of the Blind" av H. G. Wells, samt "Blindheten" av José Saramago. Gemensamt för samtliga studerade verk är synförlust, och analyserna har fokuserats på denna synförlusts respektive anledningar och innebörder, synförlus
Background: Ratios of values of brachytherapy source strengths, as measured by hospitals and vendors, comprise constant differences as, e.g., systematic errors in ion chamber calibration factors and measurement setup. Such ratios therefore have the potential to reveal the systematic changes in routines or calibration services at either the hospital or the vendor laboratory, which could otherwise b
The liberty of religion is not easy to define or regulate. It is closely connected to other liberties and rights. Starting from individual liberty, the consequence will be a right to religion or from religion, the right to change religion or confession, and the right to transition from religion to no religion, or from no religion to religion. It is obvious that the state, the religious denominatio
The purpose of this study was to analyze two approaches to concepts of a just response to the atrocities of Democratic Kampuchea as they are presently operating in the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia and in Khmer Buddhism. It assessed what Buddhism and the ECCC offer in answer to Cambodians’ justice needs and where both ways of conceiving justice overlap and diverge. The research
Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) are stars located in the Galactic halo travelling with extremely high speeds. They are produced when a binary approches the supermassive black hole (SMBH) in the Galactic Center (GC) and gets tidally broken up. In this process one of the stars is ejected with high velocity. The angle between the velocity of the incoming binary and the velocity of the ejected HVS is alm
The influence of crowdfunding on financing entrepreneurial ventures and projects have been increasing in recent years. It allows founders of crowdfunding projects to achieve investments from a relatively big crowd using the internet. The recent rise of the crowdfunding phenomena attracts more project founders to establish it as a new entrepreneurial finance method, between bootstrapping and tradit
The EU-funded project European Cultural Heritage Online (ECHO) aims to integrate resources from various domains within the field of cultural heritage, and make them available on the Internet. To accomplish this integration it is necessary to describe the various resources in a way that will achieve cross-domain interoperability. This description of digital resources is commonly referred to as
Uppsatsen handlar om metaforer i det vetenskapliga språket. Jag har inte, som många före mig, behandlat hur metaforer och andra bilder styr vår uppfattning av verkligheten. I stället har jag koncentrerat mig på att analysera metaforens struktur. Det vill säga meningsöverföringen mellan bokstavlig och icke-bokstavlig betydelse. Min tes är att det kan ske en andra meningsöverföring, där den icke-bok

Målet med denna studie är att undersöka landskapsförändringar i Hambantota distriktet i Sri Lanka och att komma fram med en lämplig metod för att utföra detta. Delmål var bland annat att besvara om jordbruksmark i området har övergivits eller om grödorna som bönderna odlar har bytts ut eller blivit fler. I december 2004 drabbades Sri Lanka av en Tsunami som kostade många människors liv och materieThe location for this study has been Hambantota district in Sri Lanka. The main aim in the study was to develop a methodology to detect land cover changes in the study area with focus on agricultural areas. Questions asked were if there was any agricultural areas abandoned or if a crop diversification process had taken place. A second aims was to investigate possible changes to the land cover as a
Autofokus för elektroner Människan har alltid varit intresserad av att studera förlopp som skett så snabbt att de inte gått att observera med blotta ögat. Med hjälp av kameror med korta slutartider kan man frysa ett ögonblick i tiden. Processer i atomer och molekyler sker på en helt annan tidsskala än den vi är vana att fotografera. Atomerna lever i en värld där saker sker så fort att man behöverConclusion The results from the optimization with GA shows that there is no noticeable difference between optimizing for arithmetic and geometric mean of the resolution. The idea behind using the geometric mean is that it would lend smaller importance to outlier values. Both settings found about the same range of values for VBend, VTweak and VExt, with comparable standard deviations. When optimiz
Since the first issuance in 1994, Swedish Government inflation indexed bonds have given a higher return then their nominal counterpart. This is despite the fact that investors can reduce the risks of inflation. Findings on other markets, as the US bond market, suggest that the higher return can be explained by the lower liquidity of inflation indexed bonds relative the nominal bonds. The aim of th
