...The Food Crises: A quantitative model of food prices including speculators and ethanol conversion Marco Lagi, Yavni Bar-Yam, Karla Z. Bertrand and Yaneer Bar-Yam New England Complex Systems Institute 238 Main St. Suite 319 Cambridge MA 02142, USA reviewed by: C. Peter Timmer - Cabot Professor of Development Studies emeritus. Harvard University Jeffrey C. Fuhrer - Executive Vice President and Senior Policy Advisor. Federal Reserve Bank of Boston Richard N. Cooper - Maurits C. Boas Professor of International Economics. Harvard University Thomas C. Schelling - Distinguished Professor of Economics emeritus. University of Maryland (Dated: September 21, 2011) Abstract Recent increases in basic food prices are severely impacting vulnerable populations worldwide. Proposed causes such as shortages of grain due to adverse weather, increasing meat consumption in China and India, conversion of corn to ethanol in the US, and investor speculation on commodity markets lead to widely differing implications for policy. A lack of clarity about which factors are responsible reinforces policy inaction. Here, for the first time, we construct a dynamic model that quantitatively agrees with food prices. The results show that the dominant causes of price increases are investor speculation and ethanol conversion. Models that just treat supply and demand are not consistent with the actual price dynamics. The two sharp peaks in 2007/2008 and 2010/2011 are specifically due to investor...

Dipboye and Amanda Peek Phillips Rice University Many college students may find the academic experience very stressful (Swick, 1987). One potential coping strategy frequently offered by university counseling services is time management. One hundred and sixty-five students completed a questionnaire assessing their time management behaviors and attitudes, stress, and self-perceptions of performance and grade point average. The study revealed 2 major findings. The Time Management Behavior Scale consists of 4 relatively independent factors; the most predictive was Perceived Control of Time. Students who perceived control of their time reported significantly greater evaluations of their performance, greaterwork and life satisfaction, less role ambiguity, less role overload, and fewer job-induced and somatic tensions. Findings are consistent with theory and advice on time management (e.g., Schuler, 1979) but also indicate that the dynamics of time management are more complex than previously believed. In trying to read all the books and chapters...

At a time when a company that was once admired and for many years held the lofty position of the world biggest automaker appears on the brink of bankruptcy 1) , Toyota is about to overtake it in global sales this year (O’Dell, 2005). Why is Toyota continuing to thrive at a time when other carmakers are struggling to survive?

...ISSN 1940-204X Performance Management at Perelson Weiner LLP1 Jan Bell Babson College Alfred J. Nanni, Jr Babson College Introduction and entrepreneurs. (See Exhibit 3 for a description of PW’s business.) PW’s business development is relationship-based; the firm doesn’t advertise for business. Instead, personnel develop long-term relationships with clients. These relationships typically start with tax return or financial statement preparation and then grow to include services that provide value to the client in other ways. Weiner explains his client focus this way: “We don’t seek short-term transactional services; we want to spend our time developing client relationships that last 40 years rather than seeking one-time opportunities.” To ensure that clients receive value from PW’s services, Weiner insists that personnel have unique expertise before offering services to clients. PW’s expertise and its ability to add unique value lie in providing traditional tax preparation, accounting, and auditing services, which are then enhanced by meaningful proactive business and tax consulting advice. Weiner has made a strategic decision to focus on these sources of client value plus one other sort of advice. With a New York City location, Weiner feels that PW can also add value for its clients by assisting them in the selection of the best specialized professional service firms in other areas. For example, PW personnel help clients find the best asset ...

Group 11 conducted a situation analysis involving a review of internal and external environments that could impact on the marketability of Peg-It and have identified opportunities for the company to improve customer awareness and market position for Peg-It in the next year. Despite a decrease in the amount of time people spend on recreation and outdoor activities in Australia there has been a contrasting increase in weekly expenditure on recreation and camping equipment. In line with this trend and based on strategic directives it is expected that sales for Peg-It will increase by 30%in the next year. Corresponding with this increase, an improved market share will enable a potential return of investment. Marketing objectives and strategy...

...needs are largely unmet in e-shopping. In the high street, women do most of the shopping but online shopping (e-shopping) tends to be dominated by male shoppers. At the same time, social networking is growing fast and is especially popular amongst young females. The purpose of this paper is to draw on prior research about why people shop in order to explore the concept of social e-shopping, based on combining e-shopping with social networking. We propose that shoppers, particularly young females, will prefer social e-shopping to traditional e-shopping. We carried out a qualitative study for our propositions with a comparison experiment, semistructured questionnaire and focus group, to compare a traditional e-shopping website with a social e-shopping one. The findings reveal that young women prefer social e-shopping sites. Both utilitarian and hedonic young adult female shoppers found social e-shopping enjoyable and useful. However, although many participants found the social e-shopping site more difficult to use, this was outweighed by their enjoyment of the site and its usefulness. The study demonstrates the potential value of the concept of social e-shopping for future research. The findings have practical implications in that social e-shopping can be a valuable strategy for e-retailers wanting to...
