It´s important when you are about to build a new stable or just increasing your production that you choose the right housing system and that it fits your own farm.

The background of this work is my own interest for breeding bulls and I will hopefully increase my own production. Due to this I wanted to learn more and increase my knowledge about different housing systems. Through a literature study I have found out the facts about the housing systems I find suitable for housing bulls.

Researchers points out that social media has become a powerful venue to spread news, both for the news business and the users.

Tänk dig att du plockar upp en tidning på vägen hem, tidningen har slående rubriker vilka tilltalar dig och du väljer att fördjupa dig och eventuellt ta till dig det som lyfts fram i artikeln.Det som den här i studien uppmärksammar är att konjunkturer spelar roll, och synen på konjunkturernas inverkan på samhället och individen lyfts fram i tidningsartiklarna. Det är en bild av en orolig framtid som lyfts fram i media och framtiden kan till och med uppfattas som hotfull genom exemplet lågkonjunktur.Lågkonjunkturen för med sig en samhällsförändring som uppmärksammas av media och genom att belysa denna samhällsförändring via diskursanalys och utvalda teoretiska utgångspunkter om risksamhället och om samhället som socialt konstruerat vilka lyfter fram föreställningarna kring lågkonjunkturen i relation till samhällets utveckling..

Consumers today are bombarded with innumerable advertising messages. The need for companies to create advertisements that consumers find relevant is thus increasing. In order to break through the ad clutter, companies have to give something extra to their customers and show that they care about them. How a company decides to communicate might then be more important than what the company actually communicates.The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether the use of creative media choices induces signaling effects and enhances advertising value as well as perceived corporate consideration. The two last mentioned variables are explored as potential driving forces behind the signaling effects.

As energy prices skyrocket and the environmental issues become more frequently debated, interest in energy-efficient buildings has increased sharply in the past decade. Because of this, the interest to achieve high air tightness in building envelopes have once again awakened, due to a good air tightness contributes to lower energy consumption in several ways and to a healthier indoor environment.As the regulations for energy consumption and controls of achieved air tightness has tightened considerably in recent years, the work regarding sheets for air tightness changed significantly for construction contractors. This thesis includes a study that aims to detect what kind of manuals, recommendations or instructions contractors working according, and how a number of randomly selected construction companies in Halland, Sweden, are dealing with the matter of high air tightness of the building envelopes. The study also includes a knowledge inventory of supervisors, site managers and skilled workers, and what their opinions and attitudes are like towards work regarding the sheets of air tightness. The results have been compared with a similar survey dated to 2004, conducted by the SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden in collaboration with Chalmers University of Technology.

In this paper the authors examine three questions: 1) Is stealth marketing messages posing as status updates on Facebook a more effective way of advertising than traditional web banners? 2) What impact has learning about stealth marketing practices in social media on consumer attitude and post purchase behaviour? And finally 3) Will different generations respond differently to these questions?Our findings show that stealth marketing in social media is not more effective than traditional web banners. Furthermore, the result indicates that when consumers find out about stealth marketing practices it will have a negative impact on future purchase intensions and brand image. Most consumers will also have strong feelings of being deceived, which could instigate harmful post purchase behaviour such as negative word-of-mouth and possibly, based on some earlier cases, boycotts.The result of our research shows that the brand perceptions and future purchase intentions of Generation Y, persons between 18 and 30 years of age, are affected in a less negative way than the brand perceptions and future purchase intentions of older generations when finding out about stealth marketing practices in social media. However Generation Y:s reaction is still negative and they do consider traditional web banners to be more credible than status updates on Facebook.

I media förekommer det idag ett stort utbud av olika hälsobudskap och många gånger kan detvara svårt att bedöma sanningshalten i budskapen. Hälsobudskapen kan även skapa förvirringoch stress hos människor och framförallt ungdomar anses vara en mer sårbar och utsatt grupp(Sandberg, 2005). Enligt kursplanen för hem- och konsumentkunskap ska budskap i mediavara en del av undervisningen. Bland annat ska undervisningen behandla budskapenspåverkan på människor och hur de kan bemötas på ett reflekterat sätt (Skolverket, 2011d). Idenna kvalitativa studie har vårt syfte därför varit att belysa hem- ochkonsumentkunskaplärares uppfattningar om hälsa och hälsobudskap i media och dess plats iundervisningen i hem- och konsumentkunskap i årskurs 7-9.

The music industry has been subject to great changes during the last ten years. The most significant factor contributing to this change is the increasing usage of broadband and thereby the increasing frequency of downloading music illegally. Music piracy and file sharing have caused record sales to plummet. Consumers have now moved on to consuming music in a digital format, not only through downloading but also from streaming music online, an activity partly made possible by social media channels such as YouTube. As the consumption patterns have changed companies within the music industry have been forced to find other sources of income than record sales and they have also needed to find alternate ways to market their artists.

Hälsa och motion har alltmer blivit ett central begrepp i dagens samhälle. I mediala debatter matas människor ständigt om hur man ska träna rätt, och vad man ska äta för att förbättra sin hälsa.

Mot bakgrund av detta var syftet med föreliggande studie, att undersöka om, överviktiga väljer att gå ner i vikt på grund av media.Som metod valdes en kvalitativ design med semistrukturerade intervjuer.
