He entered the hall, most of his enthusiasm for the evening evaporated, then felt his heart give a sudden lift when he spotted Janine and Monique with their heads together as they worked intently on their project. His greetings to the volunteers were cheerier than usual as he gradually worked his way down to Moniques table. What was happening to him, he wondered? It wasnt right that he should be feeling this way. Monique looked up when he reached their table. Was it his imagination, or did her eyes light up when she saw him?

Families in Context
The most thoroughly updated edition yet, this book offers students perspectives of changes in marriage and family over time, including the impact of the Great Recession and of new media technologies.

2015 Annual Competitiveness Analysis, Agricultural Productivity And Development Vision For Asean-10
In the tradition of the Asia Competitiveness Institute (ACI) at the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore (NUS), our research publications make a distinctive contribution to the understanding of economic development in Asia by evaluating and tracking competitiveness for the ten ASEAN member states annually since 2000 through combining leading-edge methodologies with an extensive dataset. In this third edition, the competitiveness ranking and simulation study for ASEAN-10 are improved and updated with 121 indicators across four environments. An in-depth assessment of the establishment of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) offers important implications for future integration initiatives in the broader Asia Pacific region. Novel empirical frameworks are also applied to provide an estimation of annual agricultural Total Factor Productivity (TFP) growth in eight ASEAN economies and to shed light on the drivers of growth in the travel and tourism industry in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand.

We identified and studied Harvard and Radcliffe reports on their institu tions and on their student organizations. We contributed to and participated in ...
