For a few decades, the wild boars are established over large areas in southern and centralSweden. Where they cause problems in terms of damage to crops in the agriculturelandscape, where rooting, browsing and trampling, but also damage to the crop when wildboars chosen daily rest in the cultivated fields. Along with the growing number of wildboars the rate of car accident with wild boars has also increased.Here I examined the daily rests of wild boar (Sus scrofa) sows in southern Sweden, todetermine the factors which the wild boars sows choose for daily rest. By determining whatfactors are important in this selection of daily rests, we may be able to make managementmeasures to reduce the damage wild boars make in the agriculture landscape by attractingthem to places where they do less economic damage and accidents on roads.In this study I have examined 123 daily rest positions from 14 different individual wildboar sows fitted with GPS collared in Southern Sweden, SkÄne County in Christinehof,Högestad Kronovalls estate. Data was collared over the years 2004-2006 during the periodfrom June 1 to September 30.

Introduction: The relationship between depression and stigma is known to cause suffering among the depressed population. Depression is also one of the most common diagnoses in the world.

Method: We chose to make a literature review to explore and compile the current research on the subject.

Abstract The core is the center of gravity in our body. Injuries and overload in the joints, is the most common reason for not be able to work in Sweden today. A god strength capacity in the core is important for secure and effective movements, as well for active athletes, as for non athletes. The increased number of employees, who report in sick today, has been correlated with psychological bad health. New methods to deal with mental and physical health problems among people can indicate to the fact that Yoga in the western world has increased its members, due its spiritual and physical recognition in favor of well being.

Introduktion: Stroke Àr en folksjukdom som Ärligen drabbar cirka 30.000 svenskar. Det primÀra symtomet Àr muskulÀr svaghet som kan innebÀra paralys/pares och 70-90% av de drabbade fÄr nedsatt motorisk funktion. Mental trÀning innebÀr att för sitt inre visualisera en rörelse utan ett motoriskt genomförande. Metoden har visat sig ge neuroplastiska förÀndringar samt ökad EEG- aktivitet i hjÀrnan. Studier har visat att visualisering, observation och exekution av rörelser aktiverar samma motoriska omrÄden i hjÀrnan.

Studiens syfte var att undersöka möjligheten till att ta kontroll över min nervositet och atteffektivisera min instudering av Intrada av Arthur Honegger.Bakgrunden Àr att jag alltid har varit intresserad av att lÀra mig nya saker och vad jag har velat meddetta arbete Àr att utveckla min kompetens som trumpetare och det har jag gjort genom mentaltrÀning. Samtidigt som jag har utnyttjat mental trÀning för att bli mer mottaglig för inlÀrning sÄ harjag trÀnat mig i att hantera nervositet. Allt detta har jag gjort för att bli en bÀttre trumpetare.Min metod har varit att jag lÀst litteratur om minnestrÀning, mental förberedelse och ens egeninstÀllning till att utvecklas inom ett omrÄde. Jag har sedan anvÀnt mig av övningar som jag hittat iböckerna, antingen som de Àr eller sÄ har jag Àndrat pÄ dem för att passa mig och mitt syfte bÀttre.Arbetets konstnÀrliga del presenterades i form av en inspelning dÀr jag spelar Intrada utanackompanjemang och jag valde att göra inspelningen utan ackompanjatör för att visa pÄ hur minvardagliga övningssituation sÄg ut. Det ger dessutom en vÀldigt naken bild av hur jag spelat och detÀr lÀtt för Ähöraren att höra vad som har fungerat bra och vad som jag inte har lyckats med.

Endast sackader i horisontalled studerades, trots att utrustningen har ett flertal andra mÀtomrÄden.

The purpose with this essay is to examine if the Swedish government?s intentions regarding to the mental health care reform, have been fulfilled. We have classified the intentions into three categories, regulation, financing and responsibility for organizing the policy. The intentions have then been compared with the results of the reform.Our theoretical framework starts with a model, developed by Evert Vedung (1998). We use this model as a tool to examine the fulfillment of the mental health care reform.

AbstractAimThe aim of the pilot study was to compare short- and long-term effects from group exercise in water with land-based exercise on pain at rest and pain with movement, along with the effects on function in daily life and practice of sports and leisure activities in patients with knee osteoarthritis. The aims were: Is there a difference in short- and long-term effects on pain intensity at rest and pain with movement after exercise in water or land in patients with knee osteoarthritis? Is there a correlation between the degree of pain intensity at rest and with movement, respectively and long-term effects from the two different exercises on function in daily life and practice of sports and leisure? MethodThe study was a randomized intervention study without a control group. Twenty patients with radiographic knee osteoarthritis were under a total of eight weeks treated with either land- or water-based exercise lead by a physiotherapist. The patients rated pain intensity at rest and with movement on a numerical rating scale (NRS) before and after the first training session, before and after the eighth training session, before and after the fifteenth training session and before the last and sixteenth training session.
