The use of motion expressions to describe objects that are actually static (e.g. “The train tracks curves through the mountain”) has been of interest within the fields of linguistics and cognitive science for at least three decades (e.g. Langacker, 1990; Matsumuto, 1996; Talmy, 2000a; Matlock, 2004a; Zlatev & Blomberg, 2013). In this thesis, such descriptions will be referred to as Non-Actual

Awara Ahmed Kontroll i butik med fokus på Listeria monocytogens och hållbarhet av egentillverkade produkter Listerios Listeria monocytogens orsakar ett sjukdomstillstånd som kallas för listerios, det vanligaste sättet att få listeriosinfektion är genom kontaminerade livsmedel. Infektionen är ovanligt men allvarligt sjukdom. De individer som främst drabbas av listerios är äldre, personer med nListeria monocytogens causes the disease listeriosis, and the most common way the infection is spreading in the environment is believed to be through food. Listeriosis is a rare infection, but can cause serious symptoms in risk groups as the elderly, people with compromised immunesystems, pregnant women and their fetuses, mortality rate is 20-30%. There are two types of listeriosis, the first one

The United States and the European Union operate under the similar design of a federal structure and their labor markets face similar tax discrimination challenges. Case law illustrates how the goal of a common market present in both unions is highly influential on the respective Courts and provides a flexible structure to protect individuals against discriminatory tax legislation. It is the centr

This study seeks to characterize key attributes of production among organic and conventional beef producers in Skåne, Sweden. The goal is to understand the extent to which their differentiation as organic or conventional is based on the practices which make them semantically diffe

Pelare som utsätts för tryck kan behöva stabiliseras för att inte böja ut oönskat mycket i sidled. För att stabilisera pelaren måste fjäderstyvheten i det stabiliserande stödet vara tillräckligt stort. Detta för att undvika instabilitetsbrott men också för att fjäderkraften i stödet inte ska bli för stor. För en pelare med en led i toppen och i botten beräknas vanligen Eulers knäckningslast P_e=(Columns under vertical point loads will need a brace in order not to bend out in a mode of column buckling. To stabilize the column, a sufficient brace stiffness needs to be given, both to avoid column instability and to reduce the horizontal force which occurs in the brace. Column buckling is usually determined by Eulers buckling formula P_e=(π^2 EI)/l^2 . This is the value when buckling occurs r

Neoliberalism, as a loosely defined set of political beliefs, calls for more individual freedom and autonomy, resulting in increased responsibility for each person to address major societal issues. ‘Individualization’ is the process by which responsibility for addressing major environmental issues such as climate change is placed on individuals.

I dagens globaliserade värld kan en dissonans uppstå i konsumentens uppfattning av multinat-ionella varumärken när varumärkena upplevs härröra ur flera nationella ursprung som står för olika marknadskommunikativa värden. Denna studie ämnar undersöka hur denna dissonans kan överbryggas genom användandet av myter i varumärkens marknadskommunikation gentemot den gestaltade befolkningen. Genom detta pIn today's globalized society, a dissonance may occur in the consumer's perception of multi-national brands if the brands are perceived to be associated to a multitude of national origins that represents contradictory market values. This study intends to examine how this disso-nance may be coped with through the use of myths in the brand's marketing toward the por-trayed population. Th

Syftet med studien är att utföra en sammanställning över forskning som drivits inom Attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) och skola. Tidigare forskning: ADHD uppmärksammas oftast hos en person mellan åldern tre till sex år (Alak & Daraghi, 2010). För ungefär hundra år sedan definierades diagnosen i den medicinska litteraturen bland annat att det berodde på bristande impulskontroll och

Begreppet autonomi används ofta för att beskriva var och ens rätt till självbestämmande. Samtidigt kan begreppet avse kognitiva förutsättningar för att kunna reflektera och agera i enlighet med sitt tänkande. Detta innebär att autonomibegreppet kan syfta på förmågan till autonomi. Denna otydlighet kring vad som avses med begreppet kan leda till godtycklighet vid bedömningar av andras autonomi, exeThe concept of autonomy is often used to describe everyone's right to selfdetermination. However, the concept is also used to describe substantial cognitive capacity to reflect and act in accordance with one’s conscious thought. This lack of clarity about what is meant by the term could lead to arbitrary assessments of other's degree of autonomy, for example within health care and social s
