An increasing global population and a worldwide growing urbanization has raised the questionabout the future food security in cities all over the world. Peak-oil limits the access to cheap fossilfuels which threatens the global food-supply chain. This has resulted in a larger awareness anddiscussion related to urban agriculture. Growing crops and keeping animals within the city-borderscould be one way of creating a more robust and sustainable food supply for city dwellers. However,to enable an expansion of the urban agriculture many theorists argue that policies and institutionalstructures that supports and promotes city farming have to be developed.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att skapa en socialpsykologisk studie om hur det kan vara att leva och växa upp med ADHD som ung. Sociala processer och interaktionens betydelse lyfts fram för att diskutera upplevelser av ensamhet, stigmatisering och tillhörighet. Studien undersöker unga mäns upplevelser i retrospektiv av att ha växt upp med ADHD och hur deras erfarenheter av omgivningens bemötande har påverkat deras självuppfattning och identitet. Studien avser även undersöka vilken betydelse det kan ha för unga med ADHD att umgås med varandra inom ramen för en organiserad gruppverksamhet. Studien har en fenomenologisk ansats och bygger på kvalitativa semistrukturerade djupintervjuer av fyra personer med ADHD.Människor med ADHD löper risk att stigmatiseras med följder av utanförskap och ensamhet.

During September 2010, Google decided to change their trade mark policy to allow keywords which is equal to an already own trademark to be offered to all who intend to link the word to their ad. They offered a service for this called Adwords. The update followed since The Court Of Justice (CoJ) stated that Google does not commit trade mark infringement by doing this. The question to answer is whether the proprietors of trademarks can do something to stop them from being used by competitors as keywords in Adwords. CoJ has stated that the advertisers are infringing the exclusive right of a trademark if the used keyword is identical to the trademark, the commercial focuses on products that is identical to the products which are registered on the trademark and if the commercial makes it difficult or impossible to an average internet user to decide whether the products originate from the proprietor, a company which has a financial connection to the proprietor or a third party.

Saab Automobile AB i Trollhättan är i behov av en förbättrad metod för virtuella byggnationer som beredningen kan använda sig av i biltillverkningen. Genom att skapa en processtruktur i befintligt PLM-system som kan kommunicera och hämta data från den produktstruktur som redan finns skulle mycket arbete kunna sparas. Idag använder beredarna sig av ett visualiseringsprogram som man kopplar produktstrukturen till. Enligt nuvarande metod bygger beredarna upp en struktur i detta visualiseringsprogram som fungerar som en processtruktur inför varje ny projektgrind. Denna struktur går inte att enkelt uppdatera och därför måste en ny skapas inför varje ny projektgrind.

The parrot is a common symbol, or even cliché, in Western literature, going all the way back fromancient Greece to the present date, and in many a genre. This study reads the oeuvre of the NobelPrize winner Samuel Beckett (1906-1989) as being closely related to these certain traditions andconnotations of for example religion, satire, and speaking nonsense, in his frequent use of parrotsand their symbolic potentials, in his writing. Furthermore, it is possible to distinguish a movementin Beckett?s use of parrots, from a more or less traditionally use, to one more philosophicallyprofound.Although the parrot graces us with its presence (or at least may be traced) in almost everywork written by Beckett, from the poem ?Whoroscope? (1930) to How It Is (1961), they are onlymentioned sparsely by his interpreters. Therefore, a brief history of the literary tradition of theparrot will be expounded.

Studien tar sin utgångspunkt i kognitiva skrivteorier. Syftet med studien har varit att undersöka om handskrivnings- stavnings- och avkodningsförmåga hade statistiska samband med textlängd och textkvalitetsamt om det fanns några skillnader mellan flickor och pojkar. Studien ville även se om det var bokstävernas läslighet eller om det var elevens föreställning om bokstavens utseende som hade betydelse för textlängd och textkvalitet. I urvalet ingick 38 elever i år 2.Resultaten visade att förmåga att snabbt skriva läsliga bokstäver och att kunna stava ord hade samband med textlängd. Textlängd hade samband med textkvalitet, ordvariation och syntaktisk komplexitet.Handskrivning och stavning hade ett måttligt samband med innehållsliga aspekter av textkvalitet och de förklarade 60 % av variationen på textkvalitet.Handskrivning och stavning hade starka samband med textyteaspekter av textkvalitet.

The aim of this study was to examine how sports journalists used religious metaphors when covering football during the time span of the study, and how the athletes were portrayed as a result of the usage. The aim was also to study if the usage differed between the two newspapers chosen for the study, one of which is a morning paper (Dagens Nyheters sport section) and one which is an evening paper (Sportbladet).To answer our questions we used a quantitative and a qualitative method, the later of the two was based on a metaphor analysis. The quantitative method consisted of a content analysis where different variables were examined. The time span of the study is articles from one year.The results show that the religious metaphors were used in many ways. Some religious metaphors, such as ones including the word miracle, were more prominent than others.

Emma Nordin: Emilie Du Châtelets analys av lycka: Upplösning av polemiken mellan illusion och förnuft.

Happiness had moved from Heaven to Earth in science, truth and pleasure.

Targitude Handelsbolag har en konceptuell idé om att erbjuda användare en webbaserad träningsdagbok med ett innovativt gränssnitt och ett system som kan ge användaren förslag på passande träning beroende på användarens kondition. En träningsdagbok är vanligtvis utformad som en vanlig dagbok och är ett hjälpmedel för träningsaktiva att följa upp sin träning. Syftet med detta examensarbete var att leverera en fungerande produkt till uppdragsgivaren för att på så sätt visa att deras koncept fungerar. En viktig del i projektet har varit att integrera produktens inloggningssystem med webbshop-systemet OpenCart, vilken uppdragsgivaren önskar använda parallellt. Uppdragsgivarens önskan var att en användare bara  skulle behöva logga in i ett av systemen för att bli inloggad i båda.

Today, the definition of literature has changed. Walter J. Ong talks about the secondary spoken language that has surfaced as a result of new technical innovations to our writing tools. This also transforms our attitude towards literature and we can see a return to literature based on verbal characteristics. According to Hans Hertel the verbal renaissance reflects a modern man need to come closer to each other and create togetherness.

Majoriteten av dagens moderna organisationer har implementerat någon form av informations- och kommunikationsteknik (IKT) i sin verksamhet. Många ideella organisationer tillämpar också denna teknik, dock skiljer sig förutsättningarna för dessa organisationer. Eftersom IKT är en kostsam investering är det av vikt att det leder till önskade effekter. Flera olika faktorer påverkar användandet och effektiviteten, att tekniken finns att tillgå medför inte per automatik att kommunikationen är tillfredställande.Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur ny informations- och kommunikationsteknik har implementerats i en ideell organisation. Studien inriktar sig på en fallstudie av hur Frälsningsarmén har implementerat dessa tekniker i sin verksamhet.
