<p>The purpose of this essay is to examinate the statements and verbal attributions of King Carl</p><p>XVI Gustaf of Sweden in the early 2000’s. More exactly I’ve got two question formulations:</p><p>Which statements does king Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden make during the early 2000’s and are these</p><p>statements, in line with the king’s attributions, non-political, party-politically neutral and noncontroversial</p><p>according to different perspectives? Question number two is if there are to find any</p><p>boundaries for where the verbal attributions of Carl XVI Gustaf seem to go when he expresses himself in</p><p>the role as the king of Sweden and the chief of state in the early 2000’s. My procedure is to read the</p><p>Christmas speeches of Carl XVI Gustaf during the 2000’s and use former beheld statements of Carl XVI</p><p>Gustaf to seek answers to the research questions. My conclusions are that the king does make political</p><p>as well as party-political statements according to different perspectives. The king sometimes speaks</p><p>fondly about EU, advocates multiculturalism, praises the family as a social building block and embellishes</p><p>the Swedish monarchy. According to different perspectives these notions cannot be seen as nonpolitical</p><p>nor party-politically neutral because in some questions different opinions are prevailed among</p><p>parliament parties and other bigger parties in Sweden. However, the statements of the king can hardly</p><p>be seen as controversial since his statements often rest upon strong common values and national unity.</p><p>The verbal boundary of Carl XVI Gustaf is floating and cannot be unravelled, but it’s possible to approach</p><p>the truth with three cores: 1. The king can encourage, although not tell how something is to be</p><p>done. 2. The king shall keep within the national unity and common values. 3. It’s not always enough with</p><p>Swedish national unity, nor shall Carl XVI Gustaf butt in discussions that undermines the relations with</p><p>other countries.</p>

För att snabba upp addering av tal, vilket är en vital del inom signalbehandling finns olika algoritmer. En sådan algoritm är Brent Kungs vilken har en tidsfördröjning proportionell mot log2(N). I rapporten jämförs några olika varianter av adderare med avseende på grinddjup, vilket är proportionelltmot propageringstiden. En modulgenerator för Brent Kung-adderare implementeras med Skill-kod i Cadence. Modulgeneratorn kan genera adderare av obegränsad ordlängd och är även teknologi oberoende. Brent Kung-adderarens fysiska begränsningar studeras och förslag ges på lämpliga förbättringar. / To speed up the addition of numbers, which is a vital part of signal processing there are different types of algorithms. One of those algorithms is the Brent Kung-adder, which has a time delay proportional to log2(N). In the report comparison of different adders has been done, taking into account grind-depth which is proportional to the propagation time. A module generator for the Brent Kung adder is implemented with skill-code in the program Cadence. The module generator can generate adders of infinite word length and is independent of the technology used. The physical limitations of Brent Kung adders are being studied and proposals for improvements are given in the report.

This multi method, quasi pre and post intervention design evaluated the impact of Hung Fut Gung Fu's ten basic stances (TBS) on quality of life (QOL) and postural balance in elderly females. The purpose of this inquiry was to explore the effectiveness of TBS as an appropriate and health promoting form of physical activity for senior populations. Five females aged sixty-nine to eighty-three, participated in the eight-week intervention. Pre and post intervention data were collected through a Quality of Life Profile: Seniors questionnaire, the Berg balance test, and a self-report calendar of slips, trips and falls. Post-intervention interviews captured participants' reflections of the experience. Quantitative findings indicate that the TBS sessions generated slight improvements in QOL and postural stability and significant reductions in slips trips and falls. Qualitative data analysis identified two themes as contributing to participants' QOL - acquiring knowledge and socializing with peers. The TBS appears to be a promising strategy for enhancing QOL and postural balance for senior populations.

Denna studie är en analys av romanen Heart of Darkness (1902) och novellen An outpost ofprogress (1898) av Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) i syfte att undersöka berättelsernashuvudsakliga tematik ur en postkolonial infallsvinkel samt vad Conrads avsikt tycks ha varitmed porträtteringen av elfenbensagenten Kurtz. För att genomföra denna analys har jag gjorten närläsning av Heart of Darkness samt An outpost of progress och samtidigt tolkathändelseförloppen.Tolkningarna är delvis mina egna samt delvis baserat på tidigare forskning. Efter att hagenomfört dessa närläsningar är min slutsats att Conrads huvudsakliga avsikt var att skildaden mänskliga moralens förfall genom den ondskefulla girigheten. Det är denna girighet somhan definierar som det mörka i en människas hjärta. Genom framställningen av Kurtz visarhan exempel på detta samt hur farlig en skicklig retoriker kan vara.
