Answer to Question 1

Engineers that are required to sign confidentiality statements in order to be eligible to work for a firm need to realize that they may not be able to go public with any information they posses even if it could potentially harm the public.

Answer to Question 2

The types of ethical violations that engineers should report to their engineering professional society when they discover other engineers doing them are anything that is done that violates the engineering code of ethics for the branch of engineering that the person committing the ethical violation is a member of when they commit the violation.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
