This document discusses the need for hotels to reinvent their loyalty programs to better build customer loyalty and brand affinity. Research found that hotel loyalty program members are not truly loyal to their preferred brand, as only 25% allocate over 75% of their spending to one brand. Additionally, past customer experience was more important than loyalty programs in driving repeat visits. The document argues that hotels should take a wider view of loyalty building by focusing on customer experience and personalized rewards rather than just point-based discounts, in order to reduce brand switching and capture a larger share of customers' spending. Reinventing loyalty programs in this way could help solidify hotel brands' foundations and allow them to better withstand challenges in the competitive hotel industry.

This document traces the history of a Swedish slum district from the 17th century to present day. It describes how:
1) The district originally housed wealthy manufactures but declined into a slum in the 19th century, with poor living conditions, disease, and social unrest including bread riots.
2) Excavations revealed the living spaces of the poor, who struggled with overcrowding, malnutrition, and epidemics like the 1834 cholera outbreak.
3) Tensions culminated in the 1948 Travellers Riots in which two girls were targeted, though the causes were as much about class as ethnicity.
4) Urban renewal in the 1950s demolished the slum but also erased its

This document discusses the characteristics of Roman heroes. It lists virtues that Romans aspired to, including pietas (duty), auctoritas (authority), comitas (humor), clementia (mercy), dignitas (dignity), and others like frugalitas (frugality), gravitas (gravity), honestas (respectability), and prudentia (prudence). The document encourages assessing oneself to see how many of these virtues one possesses and whether one would be considered a hero in the Roman world.

Paper presented at the Nordic TAG Conference in Copenhagen 2015
Abstract: The Nordic Seven Years War, 1563 – 1570, has been described as the first modern war fought in Scandinavia. It was a devastating conflict, with Danish and Swedish forces opposing each other on both land and sea. A war aim for Denmark was to restore the Kalmar Union of 1397, thus uniting the Nordic countries once more. Of greater importance however was the struggle for control of the Baltic trade routes. In 1567, this drawn-out conflict had reached a stalemate. The Danish solution was to attack the heartland of the Swedish realm; a swift strike that would force the enemy to surrender.
The Getaryggen 1567 project is following in the footsteps of this invading army. One of the battlefields has been located and partially excavated, a site where local militia had to face professional Danish soldiers. What tactics were used and how were the opposing forces armed? Could local peasants offer any real resistance to the Landsknechts of the 1560s? And what might have happened to the numerous fallen, of whom we have found no traces? Focus is also on the long-term consequences of the conflict. What happened to a population and a region that found itself in harm’s way?
The document provides details about Kenneth Seraspi's qualifications and experience as a landscape architect. It includes his educational background, professional experience working for AECOM and Paulo G. Alcazaren and Associates on various projects in Asia. It also lists references, honors received, and licensing information. Sample projects mentioned include the Entertainment City Manila master plan and Puerto Azul master plan.
This document outlines the development of a hotel management system, including an overview of the organization and need for the project. It describes the current manual system and proposed automated system to address drawbacks like data loss and inefficiency. Hardware and software requirements are specified, along with details of testing strategies like unit, system, functional, and integration testing. Data flow diagrams and form and code layouts are provided for key system functions like sign up, menu, customer information, reservations, and viewing records. Future enhancements are suggested around parking, expenses, utilities, and tracking income.

1. Charlotte et Bernard Cassez : la fin d’un
cauchemar
Pendant sept ans, ils n’ont jamais flanché, soutenant leur fille envers et contre tout.
Aujourd’hui ils se sentent, eux aussi, libérés.
> Retrouvez l’intégralité de l’édition spéciale de ELLE consacrée à Florence Cassez
aujourd'hui dans les kiosques.
Par Nathalie Dolivo - Le 25/01/201
Leur combat et leur détermination
En mars dernier, lorsqu’une première fois la Cour suprême avait failli libérer Florence mais
que la procédure n’avait pas abouti, Charlotte et Bernard Cassez nous avaient raconté leur
combat et leur détermination. Charlotte : « Florence veut mon avis sur un tas de choses : sa
santé, les options judiciaires, les gens qui demandent à lui rendre visite... Normalement, à 37
ans, on peut se passer des conseils de sa mère ! Mais, dans le contexte de la prison, Florence
en a besoin, bien qu’elle sache être très forte aussi. » Et elle avouait, dans la même interview à
Patricia Gandin, ce qu’elle avait rêvé secrètement de faire le jour où sa fille reviendrait de
l’enfer : « nous savions juste que nous irions sans tarder voir ma mère dans le Massif central.
Elle est très âgée et a peur de ne pas revoir sa petite-fille. » Le rêve secret de la mère et les
rêves que Florence a dû formuler dans les ténèbres de sa cellule... tout cela va désormais
pouvoir s’accomplir.
