Title: Flemish Sign Language online
Body: Yesterday the first Flemish Sign Language - Dutch / Dutch - Flemish Sign Language dictionary was launched. It is an on-line basic dictionary which contains over 2000 Dutch entries and over 6000 signs from Flemish Sign Language (VGT) (including regional variants). The signs can be read through SignWriting and can be seen as moving pictures (although not all of the films are ready yet; they are being added on a daily basis). You can search the dictionary in two directions: from the Dutch written word or from the Flemish Sign Language sign (with a search platform based on SignWriting). At the moment everything is still in Dutch and/or VGT, but information in English will be added shortly. The website can be found at: http://gebaren.ugent.be and can be accessed freely.

Title: Analysis of the TOEFL
Body: I have written a contribution on the arbitrariness of the TOEFL, available to download from: www.mextesoldf.upn.mx Look for the title of the article, 'The AWFUL: A Multiple Guess Test' in the right column of the website. It has plenty of tips on out-guessing "multiple guess," and reviews the traps in most of the sections. I also deduce why the exam must have been made this way: the authors, the ETS, salvage stability (formerly "reliability") at the cost of validity, in accordance with an extremely Behavioristic Bell Curve-type rationale.
