I utkanten av Malmö ligger en övergiven militär skjutbana i anslutning till friluftsområdet Husie mosse. Vid en första anblick ser området inte mycket ut för världen med sin sparsamma växtlighet, diverse sopor och inte sällan en eller ett par utbrända mopedkadaver. För den som beger sig till den solbelysta sydsluttningen finns det dock mycket att upptäcka: fjärilar, bivargar och inte minst sandödlIn the outskirts of Malmö, Sweden a small population of sand lizard Lacerta agilis resides in a disused shooting range close to the recreation area known as Husie mosse. This species is listed in the national swedish red list as vulnerable and is declining throughout most of northwestern Europe. It is therefore included in The Habitats Directive, a European Union directive which aims to protect th

Quantum key distribution (QKD) is a secure encryption key generation process to be used by two users in the presence of an eavesdropper. The no-cloning theorem allows the sender "Alice" to securely send qubits with single photons to the receiver "Bob". However, due to real-life imperfections, it is not always possible to have a single-photon source with its properties matching Since the dawn of the first civilizations, the security of information has proven vital to the success of any given community. History records the first attempts at using cryptography techniques in a 1900 BC to 600 BC time frame. In ancient times, the working mechanism of this technique involved the use of letters in the alphabet. To secure the information, these techniques shifted the letters’ nu

Hur mycket som än skrivs om de svenska häxprocesserna verkar vi aldrig tröttna på att höra om dem, försöka förstå dem eller förfasas över dem. Denna uppsats behandlar en av de få, relativt outforskade, delarna i de svenska häxprocessernas historia: de processer som utspelade sig på Åland mellan åren 1666–1668. Processerna har till viss del fallit mellan forskningens stolar, då Åland inte längre tiNo matter how much is written about the Swedish witch trials we never seem to get tired of hearing of them, trying to understand them and be horrified by them. This essay explores one of few, relatively unknown parts of the Swedish witch trials: the trials that took place on the Åland Islands between the years 1666-1668. Not as much attention has been paid to these trials, probably because the Åla

Att röra på sig är och har alltid varit en grundförutsättning för vår hälsa och välbefinnande. Dagens samhällsutveckling tyder på en allt mer stillasittande livsstil i form av arbeten, vardagsliv och fritidsaktiviteter. Bristen på fysisk aktivitet är en av de största hälsoutmaningarna idag och individers levnadsvanor har visat en konstaterad anledning till detta. Det har traditionellt sätt varit Movement is and has always been essential for our health and well-being. Today's social development indicates a more sedentary lifestyle in terms of work, everyday life and leisure time activities. The lack of physical activity is one of the biggest health challenges of today and the living habits of individuals have shown a strong reason for this. It has traditionally been the individual'

The field of public diplomacy has become increasingly dependent on the general digitalization in society, and its use of social media platforms as a mean to spread their political message to the general public. Digitalization has made public diplomacy more attainable for the masses, but it has also given states a larger responsibility in which messages they want to convey to the public. This thesi

Since its first publishing in 1954, The Lord of the Rings has been read by millions, and it has become the subject of many scholarly studies. However, one of its most famous characters, Gollum, has only been marginally examined. The aim of this essay is to counteract precisely that and examine how Gollum exists within, and in his own way embodies, the theological and moral system of The Lord of th

Due to the widespread juvenile delinquency in Sweden, attention has been brought to the need for more intrusive penalties for young offenders. Therefore, the penalty of youth probation (Sw. ungdomsövervakning) was legislated in 2021, which aims to counteract recidivism and contribute to a favorable development of young offenders. Previous literature reveals that there is no agreement in the effect

At the Children’s Heart Center of Skåne University Hospital (BUS) there is an ongoing project with live recordings of open heart surgeries. These recordings will be used for educational purposes, for planning of future surgeries, as well as for evaluating the surgical procedures. Currently, the recordings are made using two cameras that are positioned above the operating table on a temporary mount

I uppsatsen har gällande rätt avseende utomståenderegeln i 57 kap. 5 § IL fram-ställts och analyserats. Utomståenderegeln är en undantagsregel från de särskilda beskattningsreglerna i 3:12-regelverket. Bestämmelsen blir tillämplig om aktie-ägaren visar att utomstående i betydande omfattning äger del i företaget. Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka om tillämpningen av bestämmelsen är ändamThis bachelor thesis deals with the outsider rule in 57:5 Swedish income tax law (IL). The outsider rule is an exemption clause, and if found applicable the general taxation rules will be applied instead of the special close company rules. The out-sider rule will be applicable if the shareholder shows that outsiders own a signifi-cant amount of the company's shares. The purpose of this thesis

Sedan införandet av lag (2006:45) om omvandling av fängelse på livstid (omvandlingslagen) har personer som dömts till livstids fängelse möjlighet att ansöka om att få livstidsstraffet omvandlat till ett tidsbestämt straff. Örebro tingsrätt prövar samtliga ansökningar om omvandling. Majoriteten av de som döms till livstids fängelse i Sverige döms för brottet mord. Att straffskalan för mord skärptesSince the passing of the Act (2006:45) on conversion of life imprisonment (omvandlingslagen), prisoners serving life sentences can apply for conversion from a life sentence to a fixed sentence. The petitions for conversion are adjudicated by Örebro district court. The majority of individuals serving life imprisonment in Sweden are convicted of murder. The increase of the severity of the penalty fo

The field of Quaternary science has, through a long history of high-quality research, produced a vast record of evidence regarding ice sheet dynamics. Consequently, our understanding of such processes and their effects are well understood. However, historically the predominant focus has been of a loose sediment perspective, which has resulted in limited insight into ice-bedrock dynamics. This is i

There has been an increase in HIV diagnoses among Chinese men who have sex with men international students (CMISs) in Australia. However, there is not a lot of understanding about the sexual health information of this cohort of transient students. There are often assumptions of low sexual health literacy and other vulnerabilities made about this cohort, but the actual cultural and systemic barrier

Due to the tendency among managers to focus on operational performance at the cost of strategic long-term objectives, the purpose of this study has been to shed light on how a company can, by focusing on its people and taking a step forward from “customer first” focus to “people first” as a strategy, ensure sustainable performance. There are different theoretical viewpoints of how companies view t

People with repeated rapid meal ingestion have been reported to have increased risk of insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance and obesity. To explore whether speed of eating a breakfast influences the postprandial rise of glucose, insulin and the incretin hormones, 24 healthy subjects (12 men and 12 women, mean age 62 years) ingested a standardized solid breakfast consisting of 524 kcal (6

What Christian worship is all about has been discussed and expressed in many contexts: in dogmatic pronouncements, in ecumenical documents and declarations, in the writings of individual theologians. This article is a simple attempt to summarize the essence of some of the more influential of those writings. In order to make it as basic and as uncontroversial as possible I have based it on Bible pa

Treatment of injuries to major nerve trunks in the hand and upper extremity remains a major and challenging reconstructive problem. Such injuries may cause long-lasting disabilities in terms of lost fine sensory and motor functions. Nowadays there is no surgical repair technique that can ensure recovery of tactile discrimination in the hand of an adult patient following nerve repair while very you

Direct and mediated electron transfer (DET and MET) between the enzyme and electrodes were compared for cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH) from the basidiomycete Phanerochaete sordida (PsCDH). For DET, PsCDH was adsorbed at pyrolytic graphite (PG) electrodes while for MET the enzyme was covalently linked to a low potential Os redox polymer. Both types of electrodes were prepared in the presence of sin
