Talibanregimen har återfått makten av Afghanistan efter en 20 år lång amerikansk ockupation. Talibanregimen har infört ett förbud för flickor att delta i utbildning och raderat ut flickor och kvinnor från det offentliga rummet. Flickor och kvinnor har begränsats till att hålla sig i det egna hemmet, utan möjlighet att röra sig fritt utan en manlig, av staten erkänd, ledsagare (mahram). Flickor ochThe Taliban regime has regained power in Afghanistan after a 20-year occu-pation by America. The Taliban regime has imposed a ban on girls participat-ing in education and erased girls and women from the public sphere. Girls and women have been restricted to stay at home, unable to move freely without a state recognized male companion. Girls and women are subjected to serious discrimination on the

The theme of this paper is the encounter between law and moral. It examines human smuggling with humanitarian reasons, which in Swedish law is regulated in 20 chapter 8 § Utlänningslagen. In preparatory work a humanitarian exemption has been discussed but the applicability of the exemption is unclear, as it has not yet been used in case-law. The discussion is founded on four theories of the moral

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the community meals as an identity shaping process in Paul’s ekklēsiai. The research question is as follows: In which ways do meals form an identity, community, and equality in Paul’s ekklēsia at Corinth and Galatia, in the light of the Greco-Roman banquet tradition and the Apostolic Decree? I answer this question by focus on meals as a banquet, and meals a

The focus of this master’s thesis has been getting a six-legged robot to autonomously navigate around a room with obstacles. To make this possible a time-of-flight camera has been implemented in order to map the environment. Two force sensing resistors were also mounted on the front legs to sense if the legs are in contact with the ground. The information from the sensors together with a path plan

BACKGROUND: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma are common diseases with a heterogeneous distribution worldwide. Here, we present methods and disease and risk estimates for COPD and asthma from the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors (GBD) 2015 study. The GBD study provides annual updates on estimates of deaths, prevalence, and disability-adjusted life years (

The objective of the recently published World Health Organization Reporting System for Lymph Node, Spleen, and Thymus Cytopathology (WHO system) is to standardize the diagnostic approach to fine-needle aspiration biopsies of hematolymphoid tissues. By categorizing specimens into five diagnostic groups—inadequate/insufficient/nondiagnostic, benign, atypical, suspicious for malignancy, and malignant

Utredningshemmet in Hässleholm, Sweden, is a special residential home for acute management and investigative evaluation of juvenile delinquents. Utredningshemmet has, since 1991, used an investigative model, which is based on systems theory. The investigative work is done in close co-operation with social workers, youths and their parents. This study takes into account the youths, who have had a

Background Up-to-date evidence about levels and trends in disease and injury incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability (YLDs) is an essential input into global, regional, and national health policies. In the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013 (GBD 2013), we estimated these quantities for acute and chronic diseases and injuries for 188 countries between 1990 and 2013. Methods Estimate

We study the extension of the class of linear time invariant plants that may be transformed into SPR systems introducing an observer. It is shown that for open loop stable systems a cascaded observer achieves the result. For open loop unstable systems an observer-based feedback is required to succeed. In general any stabilizable and observable system may be transformed into an SPR system using cas

We present multiple-epoch radial-velocity observations for 104 stars in a field of the intermediate-age open cluster IC 4651 to . Only 13 stars (13%) of the full sample are field stars. From the 44 single member stars we find a mean radial velocity of , and the 12 single red-giant members yield a true radial-velocity dispersion of . Of the 19 giant members, 7 (37%) are spectroscopic binaries with

Background and purpose Can an increased focus on values in working life be a factor in stress prevention? Values are defined as the shared principles which guide behaviour in an organisation. The purpose of this study was to describe how patients with musculoskeletal pain perceive the importance of values in relation to coping with daily stress and in relation to health.
