The world's natural resources are constantly being reduced, which increases the pressure on companies to actively engage themselves in environmental activities. Meanwhile, stakeholders focus is being broadened and it is now important not only to supply a particular product or service but also show that they are actively pursuing an environmental agenda. Companies can use various tools to aid in environmental efforts, but also to demonstrate to the world that the company is actively engaged in environmental activities. One such tool is the environmental standard ISO14001 which provides the company with guidance and support on how the business must manage its environmental efforts. To show a business' progress in environmental performance, it is advantageous to use environmental performance indicators as they enable stakeholders to easily understand how the business works with environmental issues.Authors in the field explain that the environmental management system propagation is limited in service organizations.

In latter years there has been a discussion about the increasing importance of intangible assets and how to incorporate this fact into strategies, accounting and valuation. The ?Internet-bubble? is a recent event that drew much attention to intangible assets, and was an indicator of how complex it can be to value assets in general and intangible information in particular. Legislators recently addressed this issue by introducing IFRS3, which led to an update of IAS38, which in turn revised the methods for handling intangible assets. A specific intangible asset that has caused much debate is research and development (R&D), since it is commonly not allowed to be realized as an asset, which could cause implications concerning analysis and valuation.

The aim of this study is to examine new interpretations of homosexuality in Islam based on Scott Kugle?s book ?Homosexuality in Islam? and the documentary ?A Jihad for love? by Parvez Sharma. Through a theological perspective, a critical analysis is performed in order to find new interpretations and compare them with each other and with the Islamic legal tradition. Argumentative analysis is also used for both the book and the documentary for this essay.     Both Kugle and Sharma use new interpretations and arguments about love to find space for homosexuality in Islam. They use a Muslim language to have relevance with their discussions to Muslim readers and viewers.

Aitik i Gällivare kommun är en dagbrottsgruva vars huvudprodukt är kopparkoncentrat som transporteras till Rönnskärsverken för vidareförädling. Gruvbrytningen sker på ett konventionellt sätt med stora producerande enheter, i likhet med andra dagbrottsgruvor. För att säkerställa dagens produktion och vara förberedd för en framtida produktionsökning vill man identifiera och därigenom möjliggöra en eliminering av de flaskhalsar som finns i brytningsprocesserna. Syftet med denna studie har varit att identifiera flaskhalsar som ger upphov till produktionsminskningar och brist på malm till anrikningsverket, och sedan utifrån dessa ge förslag på allmänna och specifika åtgärds- och förbättringsförslag. För att lokalisera problemen gjordes en fallstudie och en genomgripande nulägesbeskrivning av de sex processtegen från tillredningen till lagren i malmladorna.
