Improper Integrals 2

One of the questions that we had a brief look at today is posted below. Our discussion in class dealt with the case for p\leq1, so all we need now to consider is the case where p>1. A comparison test may prove to be difficult, so can you think of another way to establish this result?

For which values of p does \displaystyle{\int_e^\infty \frac{\ln x}{x^p}\textrm{d}x} converge?
