This paper deals with the use of Internet at Swedish public libraries. The author asks whether public libraries should or should not limit access to information available on the Internet.

The persons in charge of such actions claim that public libraries should provide high-quality educational literature and should not spread mass-produced, provocative information.

En ruptur av främre korsbandet leder till instabilitet samt funktionsnedsättning i knäet. Det råder i dagsläget delade meningar om behandlingsmetoderna vid denna skada. Oavsett om skadan behandlas operativt eller konservativt så har sjukgymnasten en viktig roll i rehabiliteringen. Patienter kan själva välja var de vill få sin vård, vilket kan leda till att erfarenheten av skadan ser olika ut mellan sjukgymnaster. Detta kan resultera i att synen på operativ kontra konservativ behandling ser olika ut.

This thesis is an evaluation of a new design concept for statorfeets in Gallejaur hydro power plant. Founder of the work is Vattenfall AB Vattenkraft. During the 70- and 80´s nuclear power began to be phased in to the Swedish grid, which meant that hydropower became an important source of rules. The generators began running in so called intermittent operations instead of basic operations, which meant 300-600 start/stop per year instead of one-ten numbers start/stop per year. In order to deal with the thermal forces that arise at every start and stop suppliers began to mount so called sliding joints, which is to take advantage of these forces and maintain the stator shape.

AbstractThis literal review intended to assess and shed light upon if west-centric feminism justifiesthe neoliberal globalization that reproduces the reproduction of inequality in the world.The result indicated that sex is not sufficient to categorize a universal group of women andthat other aspects of social structures such as class, caste, ethnicity, race, religion and ageshould be included in transnational feminism, and that this discourse needs to becharacterized by contextual understanding of culture and power. Neoliberalism has createdspace for personal freedom and choice, but all do not possess the same conditions to utilisetools to attain positive progress in regard to these choices. Furthermore, this study hasrevealed that feminism is subordinate to the globalization of neoliberalism and that thepost-feminist trend could be perceived as being discrepant with a progressive transnationalfeminist movement..

Package design constitutes an important marketing and differentiation tool in an increasingly competitive food market, particularly in the category of daily consumer goods where the turnover rate is high and the purchases are based on self-service (Hine, 1997; Spethmann, 1994; Underwood, 1999). Media fragmentation undermines the traditional marketing tools and the demands for packaging are bigger than ever. A package must not only sell a product, but also tell, through design, how the product is used and express the values that the trademark owner wishes to convey to the end customer (Underwood, 1998). The understanding of the role of packaging as a marketing tool has increased, but the initiators inside the packaging industry in Sweden still think that the Swedish packaging industry is developing slowly. They often describe Swedish packages as homogeneous and unimaginative.

Det kan föreligga en risk idag att sjuksköterskor inte hinner tillgodose patienternas behov som tidigare eftersom att vårdtiderna är kortare och att arbetsbelastningen inte har blivit mindre. Patientens preoperativa skede början när han/hon känner att något inte står rätt till med hans/hennes kropp. Det är ett stressfyllt moment att genomgå en operation både fysiskt och psykiskt. Många patienter kan uppleva ångest, otrygghet och maktlöshet eftersom man inte har någon kontroll över sin kropp under operationen. Vård är ett samspel mellan patient och vårdare.

Bakgrund:Awareness definieras som när en patient i generell anestesi i efterhand kan minnas händelser eller ha förnimmelser från en operation då han eller hon borde varit medvetslös. Det är en allvarlig anestesiologisk komplikation som kan leda till posttraumatiskt stressyndrom. Av de patienter som genomgår kirurgiska ingrepp i generell anestesi drabbas cirka 0,1 - 0,2 %. Den vanligaste orsaken till awareness är ytlig anestesi, vilket hos särskilda riskpatienter ibland kan vara svårt att förebygga med endast traditionell övervakning. Det finns därför ytterligare metoder att tillgå.
