The standardized testing business is a big business -- though many are extremely critical of it. However, given how many universities rely on standardized tests for admissions, it's difficult to overstate how important some of these tests can be. And, because of that, there's a huge ecosystem of test preparation built around all of these tests, trying to help applicants prepare for the exams. These usually involve practice exams, often with questions from older exams. However, what if you got questions that were appearing on current exams? Given how many people take these tests, would it really be that surprising that someone would tell others about some of the questions they received on the test? In the long run, it probably wouldn't make a huge difference in testing results since it's unlikely anyone would see all the questions they cou

In science, the integrity of the research and publication process is of utmost importance. In recent years, many questions have arisen about the validation performed by peer-review science journals. Many of these questions have come out of the field of biotechnology, such as the human cloning research reported some years back.

Hey folks, As you may remember, back before I started the DPL job I promised to run a survey. Then I pestered a huge number of people to answer a set of questions and get back to me. I've taken longer than I hoped to read through all those responses and summarise them, but finally I'm done. As I said at the time, I'm *not* going to go into great gory detail about individuals or specific teams here and now. Many of the surveys include personal information and I promised to protect that. Instead, this is just a summary of the results. I'll be following up in more detail with various of the teams in the coming weeks. If you have any questions in the meantime, please feel free to contact me. So, enough of the disclaimers... :-) The raw numbers =============== I sent out 75 mails containing survey questions[1] at the end of April.

Lucas123 writes "With gas prices 30% higher this summer over last, telecommuting is back on everyone's radar. According to a Computerworld story, however, IT and telecommuting don't have a great record of success. For example, citing negative impacts on productivity, HP ended its telecommuting policy for hundreds of workers two years ago, and this year, Intel began requiring more than half the teleworkers in its IT group to report to the office at least four days a week. So before leaping, some questions you should ask as a manager if you're considering telework include: How will you define and measure performance? Will creativity suffer? What about employees stuck in the office?"

(AP) - Just because something's automatic, doesn't mean you can totally sit back and relax; especially when it comes to your retirement. In recent years more companies are shifting away from traditional pensions and placing the responsibility for retirement planning more squarely on individuals. As part of the move, many employers now offer automatic enrollment in their 401(k) and are changing the types of funds they offer. While these enhancements may be to your benefit, you'll still want to ask the important questions.

There's more than a little skepticism surrounding the new Martin Jetpack. Promising a new era of ultralight flight, many of the claims (altitude capabilities and safety, especially) sound too good to be true.
