The LBJ Student Center at Texas State University aims to increase student participation in its programs and services by 15-20% over the 2009-2010 school year. It will create a unified brand and identity through a media campaign using print ads, radio PSAs, TV commercials, and special events. Research including surveys of over 1,000 students found high levels of personal growth associated with involvement in student organizations and activities. The media plan will launch in Fall 2009 and utilize various advertising placements and interactive events to promote the many resources offered at the LBJ Student Center.
1. The study examines factors influencing life satisfaction in Italy using survey data from 2008-2009. It finds that life satisfaction is higher for those with higher incomes, savings, and more optimistic economic views, and lower for those experiencing financial stress.
2. The data comes from three waves capturing different points in Italy's economic cycle, but economic indicators did not change dramatically between waves.
3. The researchers developed methods to standardize life satisfaction responses measured on different scales across waves. Regression analysis found that income, financial stress, and demographic factors influence reported life satisfaction.
1) The document discusses changes to industrial classifications from NACE Rev 1.1 to NACE Rev 2 and the impact on construction sector survey results.
2) Two approaches were used to reconstruct time series data according to the new classification: a micro approach recoding individual units, and a macro approach using conversion coefficients.
3) Preliminary results show the new time series have a similar confidence climate index but greater variability and outliers for some assessments compared to the old series.
1. Siddhartha Gautama was born in Lumbini Garden to King Suddhodana and Queen Maya of the Shakya clan. At birth, a holy man prophesied that Siddhartha would either become a great king or leave the palace life to become a Buddha.
2. Siddhartha grew up shielded from suffering by his father but was troubled by the realities of life, such as seeing a farmer hurt a worm. He married Yashodhara at age 19 but continued pondering human suffering.
3. After several protected years immersed in pleasure, Siddhartha's thoughts remained troubled by the problem of suffering in

The document discusses market segmentation and how retailers can target different consumer groups. It focuses on segmentation of the adult female Generation Y market. Five distinct segments were identified: recreational discount seekers, recreational quality seekers, trend setting loyal, shopping and fashion uninterested, and confused time/money conserving. The segments differ in how they approach shopping based on factors like price sensitivity, brand loyalty, enjoyment of shopping, and confusion over product choices. Retailers can use this segmentation information to better target each group through tailored marketing, products, pricing, and in-store experiences.

Il cloud computing è una grande opportunità...si, ma per chi? Come dimostra e la storia dell'IT, il successo di piattaforme largamente utilizzate e diffuse ha sempre portato come conseguenza il diventare un "grosso bersaglio" per hacker e malintenzionati. Dal punto di vista della sicurezza quindi il condividere una sola piattaforma trasparente può essere un problema con varie e inaspettate sfaccettature (che succede se un giudice in Islanda requisisce i server con i nostri dati???). In questo speech analizziamo il "lato oscuro della nuvola" in termini di minacce e contromisure.
Edgar Allan Poe was an American writer and poet born in 1809 who became orphaned at age 2. He was briefly enrolled at the University of Virginia but had to leave due to gambling debts. He then joined the army and attended West Point, but was later expelled. Poe published poetry and worked as a literary magazine editor, formulating theories about short stories. He is known for works like "The Raven" and as the father of detective and horror fiction. Poe married his 13-year old cousin Virginia and lived in Baltimore, but she died of tuberculosis in 1847, and he himself died under mysterious circumstances in Baltimore two years later.
