Case as Agree Marker

This paper argues in line with recent work by Pesetsky and Torrego that given the operation Agree there is no need for the concept Abstract Case in Narrow Syntax. Morphological case exists in many languages, and is here, following a suggestion by Halldór Sigurðsson, seen as the result of an instruction to PF how to translate syntactic structure into morphology. I will call this instruction CAM, sh

Immigrant language groups in Religious Organisations

During the process of migration, many immigrants undergo a number of changes in their relationships to their religious organisations. One factor that has emerged as especially important in immigrants’ congregational affiliation is the availability of language groups in immigrants’ mother tongues. This article examines how these groups are formed and the roles they play in the lives of their member

Outcome and quality of life after surgically treated ankle fractures in patients over 65 years of age

Background Despite high incidence of ankle fractures in the elderly, studies evaluating outcome and impact of quality of life in this age group specifically are sparse. The aim of this study was to evaluate outcome and quality of life 6 and 12 months after injury in patients 65 years or older who had been operated on due to an ankle fracture. Methods Sixty patients 65 years or older were invited

Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrizae for dating multiple paleosols and carbon loss rate determination

A promising technique for dating paleosols is reported based on radiocarbon (C-14) dating of asexual spores from vesicular-arbuscular mycorrizae (VAM). The soils are dispersed in water and some 6000-8000 spores separated by hand picking under a low power microscope. The dried spores are then dated by accelerator mass spectroscopy (AMS). A chronosequense of closely superimposed paleosols from an ar

The effect of material choice on the total energy need and recycling potential of a building

Minimizing the use of energy is a central task in sustainable building. Minimizing the use of natural resources and maximizing the recycling potential are other important tasks to take into consideration. In low-energy buildings, the embodied energy accounts for a considerable part of the total energy use of the building. Therefore, it is also imperative to pay attention to the choice of building

Tired of Diabetes Genetics? Circadian Rhythms and Diabetes: The MTNR1B Story?

Circadian rhythms are ubiquitous in biological systems and regulate metabolic processes throughout the body. Misalliance of these circadian rhythms and the systems they regulate has a profound impact on hormone levels and increases risk of developing metabolic diseases. Melatonin, a hormone secreted by the pineal gland, is one of the major signaling molecules used by the master circadian oscillato

Greenhouse Gas Emissions due to Dairy Farm Operations

Abstract: According to Skånemejerier executives, approximately 80% of greenhouse gas emissions occur on the farm. Public concern in greenhouse gas emissions has steadily grown over the past few years prompting inquiries about the amount of greenhouse gases are emitted by Skånemejerier during its course of business. The most common question received relates to the amount of greenhouse gas emitted i

Att återinföra tillräknelighet - En analys av förslaget i SOU 2012:17

Den straffrättsliga regleringen av psykiskt störda lagöverträdare har varierat genom åren. Innan BrB trädde ikraft 1965 prövade domstolen psykiskt störda lagöverträdares tillräknelighet, men i samband med en omfattande straffrättsreform utmönstrades kravet på tillräknelighet. Sedan BrB trädde ikraft har straffrätten förändrats och flera utredningar om att återinföra tillräknelighet har publicerats

Häckeberga naturreservat 1976-2015 – en uppföljning och framåtblick

Är det någon vits med naturreservat? Mer och mer av naturen försvinner när vi använder mark till jord- och skogsbruk, och många städer breder ut sig på en större yta. Växter och djur kan till viss del anpassa sig till stadslivet och överleva i jordbruks- och skogsbruksmarker, men många är beroende av en särskild sorts naturtyp för att kunna överleva. Människor är också beroende av naturen för att
