Easing the hard job of choosing software

Article Abstract:

The use of software in career planning and employment professions can decrease administrative burdens and can enhance productivity. Specific software for specific problems that can give exact solutions for the real requirements must be developed. Existing computer systems must be improved with interactive voice response, imaging and scanning. The time required for the software evaluation and selection process can be reduced through defined steps and the risks in making the final decision can also be decreased.

Can two reporters take on Murdoch and win?

Article Abstract:

Reporters Jane Akre and Steve Wilson are suing Rupert Murdoch's Fox 13 television station in Tampa, FL, under the state's Whistleblower Act. They allege that they were dismissed from Fox 13 for not broadcasting statements they thought were untrue about bovine growth hormone, manufactured by Monsanto, a leading Fox advertiser. Whatever the outcome of the legal action, Akre and Wilson are likely to gain a public relations victory over Fox 13.
