...Business Strategy and the Environment Bus. Strat. Env. (2009) Published online in Wiley InterScience (www.interscience.wiley.com) DOI: 10.1002/bse.657 Corporate Social Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting on the Internet J. Emil Morhardt* Roberts Environmental Center, Claremont McKenna College, Claremont, CA, USA ABSTRACT All material related to environmental and social performance on the corporate internet sites of 454 Fortune Global 500 and Fortune 1000 companies in 25 industrial sectors was analyzed using the Pacific Sustainability Index. Maximum scores for individual sectors were 20–75 percent of the total possible, highest in the largest and most environmentally sensitive sectors and ranging generally linearly, as shown by plotting score versus rank, down to nearly zero in every sector. None of the variation in score is explained by corporate revenue in the Asian and European firms in this sample (revenues greater than about $9 billion), but there is a very weak correlation between score and revenue for American firms of this size, and a stronger one when Fortune 1000 companies (all American) with revenues smaller than this are included, suggesting that, as corporate size reaches a certain threshold, sustainability reporting becomes independent of it.

...Scarce skills Jobs are scarce. What plan can you make to secure a job in today’s world of work? The answer is to study for a scarce skill! What is a scarce skill? A scarce skill is a qualification or job for which there are too little people in South Africa doing the job. Government would like to set South Africa on a winning economic pathway, by developing the skills of our people and assisting people to find employment more easily. Studying for a scarce skill would not only mean helping your country, but also helping yourself! A scarcity in qualifications or jobs, can come from the fact that the occupation is new and very few people have studied to fill these posts. It can also happen that people have not chosen to study for the course and a scarcity developed in the job. Sometimes special experience is required, for example people with years of experience of management, or in other cases people are needed in certain towns, cities or geographical areas. Scarcity can also be in terms of equity, for example too few women enter into a specific career. 2 How can you benefit? Choose to study for a scarce skill. Not only will you be able to find a job more easily, but chances are that you will be paid better and progress to the top of your career path more easily, because employers will snap you up. Also, some qualifications are scarce all over the world, which means that opportunities open up for you much more easily. You can make an appointment with one of the Department’s careers...

...STAT 225: Introduction to Probability Models Extra Examples 1 Introduction to Probability Extra 1.1 Let A be an event that happens 40% of the time. Let B be an event that happens 75% of the time. Answer the following 4 questions. What is the smallest probability the intersection of A and B can have? What is the largest probability the intersection of A and B can have? What is the smallest probability the union of A and B can have? What is the largest probability the union of A and B can have? .15, .4, .75, and 1 respectively. Extra 1.2 Suppose we are rolling 2 independent, fair 10-sided die. Let A be the event that the sum of the rolls is a prime number. Let B be the event that the sum of the rolls is odd. Let C be the event that the sum of the rolls is even. Find the following sets: BC , A ∩ B, A ∪ C, A ∩ C, (A ∩ C)C , A ∩ (B ∩ C)C , (A ∩ (B ∩ C))C ? BC = C, A ∩ B = A \ {2}, A ∪ C = Ω \ {9, 15}, A ∩ C = {2}, (A ∩ C)C =Ω \ {2}, A ∩ (B ∩ C)C = A, and (A ∩ (B ∩ C))C = Ω. Extra 1.3 Suppose a lottery has balls numbered 1-20. 4 balls are picked at random and without replacement. Let A be the event that all 4 balls are even. Let B be the event that all 4 balls are less than 10. Let C be the event that all 4 balls are primes. (Allow 1 to be a prime.) Find P(A), P(B), and P(C). (Hint an extended general multiplication rule could be helpful.) P(all 4 even) = (10)4 (20)4 = .0433. (9) P(all less than 10) = (20)44 = .0260. What numbers are prime? 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, and...

...ork2012 - 2013 Catalog A Message from the President “Sullivan University is truly a unique and student success focused institution.” I have shared that statement with numerous groups and it simply summarizes my basic philosophy of what Sullivan is all about. When I say that Sullivan is “student success focused,” I feel as President that I owe a definition of this statement to all who are considering Sullivan University. First, Sullivan is unique among institutions of higher education with its innovative, career-first curriculum. You can earn a career diploma or certificate in a year or less and then accept employment while still being able to complete your associate, bachelor’s, master’s or doctoral degree by attending during the day, evenings, weekends, or online. Business and industry do not expand or hire new employees only in May or June each year. Yet most institutions of higher education operate on a nine-month school year with almost everyone graduating in May. We remained focused on your success and education, and continue to offer our students the opportunity to begin classes or to graduate four times a year with our flexible, year-round full-time schedule of classes. If you really want to attend a school where your needs (your real needs) come first, consider Sullivan University. I believe we can help you exceed your expectations. Since words cannot fully describe the atmosphere at Sullivan University, please accept my personal invitation to visit and experience...

The journey of taxi cabs in India began somewhere in 1910s as a replacement of horse wagons. The first taxis were the traditional Ambassador and Premier Padmini painted black and yellow to serve the Indians for daily commuting. These were metered taxis that gradually had spread over to various cities including Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and other major cities of the country. The business started sprouting results and thus it expanded the footprints in almost all the cities with a further addition of Fiat taxis. The taxi services or car rentals are available for all categories of people, be it middle class, company’s employees, high income groups or families. The service providers ensure that traffic chaos are handled and up to the expectations of the consumers. Gradually, with the changing generation and advancing technology, people have started desiring for enhanced comfort, luxury and service due to the high generated income and overall economic growth. This has shifted the trend from normal black and yellow taxis to other luxury cars including Tata Indigo, Tata Indica, Toyota Corolla, Mahindra Renault Logan, and many more, eventually giving an end to the ubiquitous...
