The overall purpose of this essay is to come to a deeper understanding about videos in the Youtube beauty community by using a mixture of qualitative and quantitative methods. By answering the main questions of the essay which are; What quantitatively measurable components are there in the videos that can be seen as contributing factors leading to the fact that some generate more views that others?; Is there a set mold for success containing certain aspects that a video must have to stand out?; What correlations can be found between the two categories of analysis and how do these potential correlations affect the popularity of the video? and What effects do specific components on the level of popularity of the video?, we?ve been able to distinguish differences as well as similarities on both qualitative and quantitative levels. We have also seen that using the two methods together have enabled us to reach more profound results. The main result that we have found on a quantitative level is that there are obvious correlations between a high level of popularity and a good visual quality.

Detta examensarbete behandlar krishantering i skolan med inriktning på elevers bortgång och hur pedagoger hanterar detta. Examensarbetet täcker även beredskapsplaner och hur sorgearbete går till i skolan. Examensarbetets fokus är på årskurserna förskoleklass till och med sjätteklass.Metoden som används är semistrukturerade intervjuer med en intervjuguide som grund. Fyra pedagoger blev intervjuade och intervjuerna blev sedan transkriberade. Tre olika beredskapsplaner samlades in och resultatet av intervjuerna samt planerna ställdes mot den litteratur som bearbetats.Beredskapsplanerna visade att det endast fanns mindre skillnader mellan två av de olika skolorna medan den tredje skolans plan var av en helt annan struktur.

Syftet med denna litteraturgenomgång var att presentera några av de vanligast förekommandelaboratorietesterna som används idag vid utvärdering av spermakvalité hos hingstar. Engranskning har också gjorts för att försöka utröna om det går att förutse hingstars fertilitetutifrån resultaten av dessa tester. De metoder som presenteras analyserar motilitet, morfologioch funktion hos spermierna i ett ejakulat. För att kunna fullfölja en befruktning krävs det attspermien uppfyller vissa kriterier. Detta för att kunna ta sig fram till äggcellen och smältasamman med denna och bilda ett embryo.

I denna uppsats har länsstyrelsens tillämpning av riksintresse för kulturmiljövård studerats utifrån ett plan- och miljöparadigmsperspektiv. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten har varit paradigmbeskrivningen i Styrning av markanvändning och miljö (2006) av Lars Emmelin & Peggy Lerman (2006: 2,12-20). Teorin har tillämpats utifrån de lokal- och centralstyrningsaspekter som deskriptivt förklarar paradigmen. Avsikten har varit att studera hur plan- och miljöparadigmets styrningsprinciper kan identifieras i detaljplaneprocesser och hur dragen påverkar processerna. Dessutom har frågan hur länsstyrelsen ser på sin handläggning utefter lokal- och centralstyrningsaspekter varit en utgångspunkt för uppsatsen. Uppsatsen har utformats efter en fallstudieprincip.

Boken Byggprocessen beskriver att ett byggprojekt uppstår när det uppkommer ett behov, i form av att en plats inte längre fyller sin funktion, eller att en verksamhet behöver en plats att vistas på (Nordstrand, 2008). Kommuner har regler att rätta sig efter när det gäller att kunna bygga och omprojektera platser, politiska beslut avgör och sätter igång ett byggprojekt (Nordstrand, 2008). Syftet med examensarbetet är att öka kunskapen och klargöra vad som krävs för att från idé till färdigställande och förvaltning, få processen att gå smidigt och med ett gott resultat. Ett projekt som har rykte om sig att ha lyckats med sin process och fått en uppskattad slutprodukt, är ombyggnaden av Stortorget i Gävle. Genom att studera varför projektet Stortorget i Gävle anses vara så lyckat kan vetskapen om framgångsfaktorerna bli större. Vad är det som gör att en plan- och byggprojekt lyckas? Vilka är framgångsfaktorerna? Under studien har tre personer intervjuats om byggprocessen av Stortorget i Gävle.

AbstractThe Northern Wheatear (Oenanthe oenanthe) is a small insectivorous passerine bird living in open landscapes. Both parents feed the brood of approximately five chicks, but little is known about how each sex allocates their feeding effort. In this study I investigate feeding nest visit differences between male and female Northern Wheatears relative to the age of the chicks, the number of chicks and the quality of the territory for 17 pairs from 2008-2010. Data were collected using automated data loggers to record nest visitation rates during chick feeding, and the sex was determined from nest video cameras. I also examine if the parents? rate of feeding visits changes over the nestling period.

The functionalism started in southern Europe after world war one and got its breakthrough in Sweden with the Stockholm Exhibition in 1930. Poverty caused many people living in overcrowded conditions which the functionalists wanted to change by using less expensive materials and giving healthier living conditions to the people. The industrialization brought new materials and working methods which made this possible. The Swedish functional style is recognised by its light plaster facing and nearly horizontal roofs. Also the garden design of that time was influenced by the functionalistic ideas. The garden was now introduced as a pleasure garden for not only the rich but for everyone.

Bakgrund:Trycksårsproblematiken är omfattande och innebär lidande för patienter som drabbats i form fysiska, psykiska och sociala besvär. Lidandet innefattar även rädsla för smärtsamma och obehagliga behandlingar samt för de konsekvenser som dessa kan medföra i form av infektioner och amputationer eller för att såren inte ska läka. I sjuksköterskans arbete ingår att genom ett holistiskt synsätt och med evidensbaserade metoder söka förhindra och behandla trycksår. Syfte: Att belysa hur patienter med svårläkta trycksår upplever sin tillvaro ur ett livskvalitetsperspektiv. Metod: Uppsatsen har baserats på åtta studier med kvalitativ ansats och två studier med kvantitativ ansats.

In the light of new technology health care is now given the opportunity to form a more mobile way of working that would bring about potential gains in terms of efficiency and quality. On the other hand, a more mobile health care also requires a more generous handling of personal information, something that may raise issues in terms of privacy. This study shows that the privacy of the patient requires two things: (i) that the personal information of the patient is handled in a way that generates her an overall positive expected utility and that (ii) the negative expected utility that each risk of an information leakage causes is offset by the expected utility it also makes possible. The first requirement (i) is shown, in comparison with today?s way of working, to be met due to the potential gains in efficiency and quality in combination with no increase in the probability of informational leakage or negative effects of such a leakage. The second requirement (ii) was also considered met since no separate risks of information leakage could be identified that was not offset by the gains it made possible in terms of expected utility..

AbstractOur world is facing new challenges depending on the climate changes. The UN panel of climate changes has determined that the human race is responsible for the changes, but also that we have the opportunity to reduce the effects. This demands that the information reaches out to the public which means that the school system carries major responsibility to this type of questions. This also means that the teachers have to be observant, and give the questions the attention which is needed. The purpose of this essay is to see if this awareness exists today among active teachers and teacher students and if the perspective differs among them, but also their opinions is in agreement with the course plan in the subject.

To introduce a standardized component assortment takes a lot of effort in order to make real cost savings. The rationalization effect itself is important, but perhaps even more important is to state the aim of the standardization efforts in a well-defined way. How can an organization assure that they are working in a proper way? How do they know that their efforts are being interpreted into the whole organization? And, how do they know that the standardization efforts actually save money? Different components differ heavily e.g. in technical complexity and quality issues.
