Almost 15 years are carving ski on the market. They differ from ordinary skis by great side carve. Regardless the public still ski with the normal techniques and skiers are not able to enjoy the new dimension of skiing which is carving. The aim of my Diploma Thesis is to make a DVD with selected methods and techniques o ski carving. Clarify the differences between the old-school-skiing and the new modern style. By use of simple exercises gain the first feelings of ride on the edges and step by step improve it until the full control of each type of carving like for example Fun carving or the ride reminding the racers in the giant slalom.

SQLite filer används av ett flertal olika program för att spara viktig information.Information som kan vara viktig för forensiska utredningar, behovet att kunnaåterskapa SQLite filer är då ett växande bekymmer. Problemet med att återskapa SQLitefiler är att, till skillnad från andra filer så har SQLite filer inget definerat slut eller någonmarkör som visar var filen slutar. Detta arbete presenterar en ny metod att bestämmaslutet på SQLite filer och jämför denna metod mot den metod som används idag tillmesta del för att återskapa SQLite filer. För att jämföra dessa metoder utvecklades tvåprogram stpextr och blkextr. Blkextr är den metod som utvecklades under detta arbete.Stpextr visade sig vara snabbare och använda mindre arbetsminne än blkextr. Men ivissa sammanhang så kommer information gå förlorad när stpextr körs till skillnad från blkextr.

The aim of the work is to accomplish the social-pedagogical research in the area of skiing and snowboarding among children and adolescents in South Bohemia. The first part concentrates on history and equipment of both winter sports. The practical part in the beginning of this work is focused on the selection of appropriate research methods to ensure the reliability of the investigation. This is followed by a selection of a representative of the population who support the validity of the survey and data collection. The focus of the work is based on evaluation of the data obtained, since it can be used in schools when planning winter courses. Analysis and interpretation of the findings of the research not only reveals the real interest in the sport, but is expected to be used in the planning of school activities.

The thesis is foucused on finding downhill runing techniques and turning techniques of public in the Czech Republic. The work aims to determine what techniniques are used by public in the Czech mountains and how good their technique is. During the main ski season of the year 2006 the rating was provided in four biggest and well {--} known resort. A short hidden observational method was used for finding the results. Techniques were classifiing by present trends and aspects and the results were processing to the tables and graphes. This thesis should help to chart the techniques used by the public in the Czech ski resorts.

Idag har vi mängder av data på våra lagringsmedia vilket gör dem till en värdefull informationskälla. Om denna data raderas betyder det inte att den är borta för alltid. Data finns fortfarande kvar på lagringsmediet och går att återskapa med så kallad file carving. Att kunna återskapa data är en viktig del inom den polisiära verksamheten, men även för andra verksamheter som förlorat data. Det finns dock vissa problem som kan ställa till med besvär när data ska återskapas. När filer inte är lagrade i sammanhängande datablock blir de fragmenterade vilket innebär problem. För att ta reda på hur stort problemet egentligen är utfördes tre test med den kommersiella programvaran EnCase och open source programvarorna Foremost, PhotoRec och Scalpel. Resultatet visade tydligt att gratisprogrammet PhotoRec var bättre än de andra programmen, men kanske mest förvånande är att det kommersiella och dyra programmet EnCase inte lyckades speciellt bra. Det framgick även att samtliga program har stora problem med att återskapa fragmenterade filer, men det var återigen gratisprogramvaran PhotoRec som presterade bäst.

As a woodcarver since the age of fifteen, I have been a keen observer of carving patterns and motifs practiced by contemporary Swahili wood carvers. In my investigations, I discovered that carvers along the coast of East Africa, do not practice a uniform style of carving, although their heritage was to a great deal influenced by Middle Eastern and Indian patterns. In Lamu, for instance, four styles of carving are applied to decorating doors and furniture. What I found astonishing, is that most contemporary Swahili wood carvers seem to be unaware of the differences in styles, especially with regard to their history and design features. Apparently, most of the patterns used by the contemporary wood carvers of the three prominent Swahili towns under discussion (Zanzibar, Mombasa, Lamu) are directly copied from doors that were made between 1700-1930. Most of these doors are known to have been introduced to the East African littoral by groups who settled in the region at different periods.

Rematerializing the Art Object examines Eleanor Antin's The Eight Temptations and Carving: A Traditional Sculpture. Temptations re-presents Antin's diet for Carving in a formal language of camp, mocking the dominant avant-garde culture and inspiring a less idea-based interpretation. Section one contextualizes Carving's formal qualities within a broader aesthetic history of photography and sculpture. Section two focuses on how Antin creates an amalgam of Renaissance and Baroque imagery in Temptations. Section three argues that Antin constructs a camp adaptation of the diet reducing the impact of an overly emotional woman and the seriousness of conceptualism to a cliché. Throughout, the thesis centers on the formal and aesthetic manifestations of Antin's humor. A performance within a performance, Temptations's parodic art history denounces pragmatic photography and empowers Antin as an artist and as a woman. / text
