Four quarks for Muster Mark?
By Tushna Commissariat
In June we reported that physicists working on the BESIII experiment in Beijing and the Belle experiment in Tsukuba, Japan found evidence for a new "charged charmonium" called Zc(3900). A "charged charmonium" is a particle that is made of four quarks – something that had never been seen before. Since that discovery, the BESIII collaboration says it has made "a rapid string of related discoveries" of four-quark particles. "While quarks have long been known to bind together in groups of twos or threes, these new results seem to be quickly opening the door to a previously elusive type of four-quark matter," says Frederick Harris, spokesman for the BESIII experiment. "The unique data sample collected by the BESIII collaboration has continued to yield a stream of clues about the nature of multi-quark objects."
'Wizzing' physics, fundamental prizes, galactic paradoxes and more
By Tushna Commissariat
"Wizzing" to the top of the Red Folder this week is a group of physicists at the "Splash Lab" at Brigham Young University who have studied the physics of "splashback" that occurs when people urinate. Using high-speed cameras the researchers filmed jets of liquid from a "synthetic urethra" striking toilet walls. They found that the stream of liquid breaks up into droplets when it is about 15 cm from the urethra exit. "Wizz kids" Tadd Truscott and Randy Hurd suggest that apart from sitting down on the toilet (and risk being called Sitzpinklers by their German friends), men should get nice and close when doing their business to eliminate splashback. Take a look at their video about "Urinal dynamics" above.
Grumpy astronauts, LEGO overpopulation, videogame quantum mechanics and more
By Tushna Commissariat
This week, the Red Folder seemed filled to bursting with amusing and captivating news stories from around the web about physics. To start off, this rather hilarious and candid account of the Apollo 7 mission on the Discovery News website. I will not give too much away and let you read the story yourself, but suffice to say that having a rather bad cold while in space sounds dreadful and is bound to make the best of us quite grumpy – and I am sure the Apollo 7 crew would agree with me!
Peering into the dark universe
By Tushna Commissariat
Inquisitive minds from all over the city of Bristol (where Physics World HQ is based) met at the University of Bristol's Peel Lecture Theatre last night to hear astrophysicist Catherine Heymans give a talk entitled "The Dark Universe", in which she tackled dark matter, dark energy, the structure of our universe from the largest to the smallest scales, flying pigs and even astronomical tooth fairies!
Heymans' lecture was the first of a number of talks to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Physics World that we will be running with the Bristol Festival of Ideas, which hosts special events, talks and screenings held throughout the year in the city.
This being the first time that Physics World has been directly involved with the festival, we were pleased that Heymans' talk was entirely sold out. And having a particular interest in astronomy, I made sure to attend the event, which proved to be a great success.
Days out at CERN, serendipitous songs, shaken scientists and more
By Tushna Commissariat
A peek into the Red Folder this week brings up the CERN Open Days – the biggest particle-physics laboratory in the world will allow people from all over the globe to roam its hallowed halls freely for this weekend. While the most exciting part of the event will undoubtedly be visits into the underground caverns that host the Large Hadron Collider's experiments, a whole host of other activities for researchers, science enthusiasts and children are available. Also this weekend, as a part of the European Researcher's Night festivities, CERN will be hosting events in Paris, Geneva and Bologna for their Origins 2013 event that looks at two big scientific discovers made in the past two years: the discovery of the Higgs boson at CERN and the latest Planck mission data. For those of you attending, "Speed-dating – close encounters with researchers" definitely caught our eye. Those of us not fortunate enough to be in any of those places can watch many of the festivities via a live webcast. And lastly, you can explore CERN from the inside on Google Maps with Street View.
Lectures with Peter Higgs, award-winning photographs, multidimentional shapes and more
By Tushna Commissariat
Each week, all of us here at Physics World comb the Internet for all things physics – we look at national and local newspapers, university news outlets, a variety of magazines, science websites and blogs, and, of course, all the latest scientific papers. We then pool our research and pick the cream of our crop to report on. But we can't always cover all the interesting bits of physics news that we have chanced upon and a lot of good stuff is left behind in a red folder. So, starting from today, at the end of each week we've decided to point all of you, our eager readers, to the stories that have caught our fancy but not made it to the site yet and leave you with some extra weekend reading from The Red Folder.
Kepler telescope goes into retirement…for now
By Tushna Commissariat
A few months ago, I wrote a blog about NASA's Kepler space telescope being in a spot of trouble, as the spacecraft shut down and went into "safe mode". The problem was that two of the four gyroscope-like "reaction wheels" that help the telescope remain steady and pointed in a particular direction had broken. Since May, researchers have been looking at ways and means to fix the problem or work around it.
Unfortunately, after analysing and testing the systems, the Kepler Space Telescope team has decided to end its attempts to restore the spacecraft to full working order, and is now "considering what new science research it can carry out in its current condition".

Physics on the big screen
By Tushna Commissariat
A new documentary of Stephen Hawking's life is due in cinemas later this summer, with the esteemed physicist himself narrating the film. Hawking, as the documentary is simply dubbed, takes a personal look at the life of the celebrated scientist – his early days as a student in Oxford and his ongoing battle with motor neurone disease – as well as documenting his academic achievements.

Eyeing light pollution
By Tushna Commissariat
Researchers in Spain have developed a small and light device that can quickly and accurately measure the light-pollution levels or artificial night-sky background brightness for a given location. The team, led by Ovidio Rabaza from the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Granada, has developed a portable system that includes an all-sky camera and several interference filters that can be easily transported and can be used anywhere.
Currently, methods to measure light pollution that affects the night sky involve using complex techniques such as astronomical photometry, which requires large-scale and expensive equipment generally housed in observatories, according to the researchers. According to the team, the new system is "clearly innovative because, for the first time, relative irradiance and sky background luminance have been measured through wide-field images, of all the sky, instead of using more conventional methods".

New portrait of Peter Higgs unveiled
By Tushna Commissariat
The Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE) has just unveiled a portrait of famed physicist Peter Higgs, at the Society's Fellows' Summer Reception last week. The painting, which will hang on the walls of the Kelvin Room within the RSE's premises in Edinburgh, was commissioned to one of Scotland's leading artists, Victoria Crowe, "to honour the man whose outstanding research was instrumental in [the Higgs boson's] discovery". The professor seems distinctly unperturbed by the high-energy proton–proton collision taking place in the top right corner of the painting. I shall leave you to find and discern the other interesting imagery in the painting for yourselves – click on the thumbnail to view a larger picture of the portrait.

Added Apr 14, 2012

Norwich, United ...
After cutting out this pattern well over a year ago, I have finally got round to finishing my Jenny Dress.
This year I have three weddings to go to so made this gorgeous dress for all of them.
I found this fab cotton, illustrated with all things found in Brighton (UK), in such a gorgeous minty pastely green tone with accents of pinks and blues and thought it would be great for this project.
I am a beginner, so found it difficult to choose a contrasting fabric for the waistband. I went for a solid blue which I liked, but as I'm quite petite it does look rather big, so needs a belt to break it up a bit.
I also used quite a thick interfacing for the waistband which is not neccessary at all, but you pros probably know that anyway!!
The cotton does crease very easily so will probably try to use something a little more wrinkle resistant in the future.
Lightweight patterned cotton, silver lining

'They just kept hitting and hitting him': Daughter of WWII veteran, 88, 'beaten to death by teen robbers describes sickening attack and how he was found 'wedged between his front car seats'
Senseless: Delbert Belton an 88-year-old veteran of World War II was beaten to death outside the Eagles Lodge in Spokane, and police have arrested two teens in connection with the murder
On the day that the second teenager charged with the vicious murder of a WWII veteran in Spokane, Washington, is due in court, police revealed the sickening brutality inflicted on the helpless 88-year-old victim.
Attacked in his car on Wednesday in the parking lot of Eagles lodge, Delbert Belton was found wedged between the two front seats of his car on Wednesday and was battered so badly he sustained brain damage and had lost too much blood to survive the violent attack.
Kenan Adams-Kinard and Demetrius Glenn, both 16, are accused of battering the war hero to death with flashlights after he fought back during a robbery and according to Belton's daughter-in-law 'They just kept hitting and hitting him.'
'He was an 88-year-old man,' said Barabara Belton to NBC News.
Even if they wanted his money and he didn't want to give it to them, they didn't need to do that.'
'They did a horrendous thing and they need to pay the consequences.'
And speaking one day after the dawn arrest on Monday of 16-year-old Kenan Adams-Kinard following a four-day manhunt for the killing of 88-tear-old, Delbert Belton, his uncle said that living in a small town narrowed his ability to make friends.
'He hung around with the wrong people and made the wrong choices,' Odell Kinard said of his nephew, Kenan Adams-Kinard. 'It's the summer and ain't nothing to do here.'
Charged with first-degree murder for the killing of Delbert 'Shorty' Belton, Adams-Kinard is due to appear in a Spokane court today, one day after another 16-year-old, Demetrius Glenn was charged as an adult and held on $2 million bail.
Glenn's lawyer says he plans to plead not guilty for the murder of Delbert - who took a bullet in the Battle of Okinawa - who was clubbed to death with flashlights as he tried to stop an apparent robbery in a crime which has captured the attention of the nation.
Demetrius Glenn, left, confers with attorney Christian Phelps. He is charged with first degree murder and first degree robbery
Glenn, pictured being led away by an officer, has pleaded not guilty
Most wanted: Police say Adams-Kinard was arrested after a four day man-hunt
Police in Spokane said that Belton, was in his car in the parking lot outside his Eagles Lodge when the attack occurred on Wednesday night.
Adams-Kinard's attorney objected to him being placed in adult prison
'The motive for this attack was robbery,' said Spokane Police Chief Frank Straub to NBC News.
'Race was not a factor. Additionally, there was no gang activity that was associated with his incident,' he added, noting that many commentators had pointed to the fact that the teens were black and the victim was white.
'These are two young men who just spun out of control.'
Glenn made an initial court appearance Monday afternoon. He is charged in Spokane County District Court with first-degree murder and first-degree robbery. The charges carry a potential life sentence.
District Judge Richard Leland, presiding over a packed courtroom, said the brutality of the attack and vulnerability of the victim make the high bail proper.
Glenn had turned himself in Thursday night, the same day Delbert Belton died of his injuries. The slightly built youth gave yes and no answers to questions from the judge but otherwise said
attorney Chris Phelps noted after the hearing that the case has gone
viral on the Internet, with many people expressing strong opinions.
Watch Video Here:
Surrender: Glenn turned himself in to police custody through his lawyer
'The evidence doesn't indicate what happened,' Phelps said, adding that witnesses only reported 'two kids running away.'
Straub said it appeared that Belton fought back against his attackers, which may have increased the severity of his beating.
Wanted: Police released images of two possible suspects
Suspect Number Two: Police caught the two teens who assaulted 88-year-old Delbert Belton outside the Eagles Lodge in North Spokane Wednesday night
'Our information is that the
individual fought back and that may have made this, you know, a worse
situation,' said Spokane Police Chief Frank Straub in a Monday press
Straub was quick to maintain Belton's innocence in the matter.
'I'm not being critical of Mr. Belton,' he clarified. 'We certainly encourage individuals to fight back, and he should have. But it shouldn't have happened to begin with.'
While Glenn turned himself almost immediately, Adams-Kinard remained in hiding for four days as police worked with churches and the teens family to get him to surrender.
'The family was helpful. The family encouraged him to surrender. The family got the gravity of this,' said Straub to NBC News.
Devastated: Daughter-in-law Bobby Belton, pictured, told of her grief at the brutal killing
Tribute: Lill Duncan takes a photo of a memorial for Delbert Belton, the 88-year-old World War II veteran who was beaten to death, in Spokane
However, Odell Kinard expressed his shock at learning his nephew has been accused of killing a man.
'It really hurt to hear that,' he said to NBC News.
'He has to take responsibility,' he added. 'But the family is praying he gets 10 years or less.'
Unusually, Straub spoke of the lives of the suspects in this brutal case and the impact this crime could have on them.
'It bothers me that a distinguished World War II veteran lost his life,' Straub said. 'But the lives of the young suspects are also likely ruined,' he said.
'He came close to losing his life in service to this country in Okinawa and then he gets killed needlessly in the parking lot while he's waiting for a friend. That's the tragedy of this thing,' Straub said of the victim.
Tribute: Friends raised a drink to Delbert Benton in the bar he was murdered outside today
'The second piece is two young men whose lives and the lives of their families are ruined by criminal activity.'
Belton was born and raised in Spokane. He survived being shot in the leg in 1945 at Okinawa, one of the fiercest battles of the war, and went on to spend 33 years working for Kaiser Aluminum before retiring in 1982.
Belton was called Shorty by his friends because he was little more than 5 feet tall, his niece Pam Hansen said.

SMH. Anybody who didn't already know this guy was a liar is a fool! Manti Te'o is finally coming clean. Sorta.
Via ABC News reports:
Manti Te'o briefly lied to the media and the public after discovering his online girlfriend did not exist and was a part of an elaborate hoax, he admitted in an exclusive interview with ABC News' Katie Couric.
The star Notre Dame linebacker, who has been hounded by the reporters since the story broke Jan. 16, told Couric in a taped interview Tuesday that he was not lying up until December. Te'o said he was duped into believing his online girlfriend, Lennay Kekua, died of cancer.
"You stuck to the script. And you knew that something was amiss, Manti," Couric said.
Te'o found out that Kekua was a hoax on Dec. 6, but on Dec. 8 he again publicly mentioned his girlfriend. The remark came as Te'o was a finalist for the Heisman Trophy, the award for the best college football player in the country. Te'o was eventually a runner-up for the trophy.
"Katie, put yourself in my situation. I, my whole world told me that she died on Sept. 12. Everybody knew that. This girl, who I committed myself to, died on Sept. 12," Te'o said.
"Now I get a phone call on Dec. 6, saying that she's alive and then I'm going be put on national TV two days later. And to ask me about the same question. You know, what would you do?" Te'o said.
Te'o, 21, was joined by his parents, Brian and Ottilia, in the interview.
"Now many people writing about this are calling your son a liar. They are saying he manipulated the truth, really for personal gain," Couric said to Te'o's father.
"People can speculate about what they think he is. I've known him 21 years of his life. And he's not a liar. He's a kid," Brian Te'o said with tears in his eyes.
The interview airs Thursday — will you be watching?

BP's Hole in the World: The Absurdity of the Fix-It Mentality
Continued from previous page
The metaphor changed with the unlocking of some (but by no means all) of nature's mysteries during the Scientific Revolution of the 1600s. With nature now cast as a machine, devoid of mystery or divinity, its component parts could be dammed, extracted and remade with impunity. Nature still sometimes appeared as a woman, but one easily dominated and subdued. In 1623 Sir Francis Bacon best encapsulated the new ethos when he wrote in De Dignitate et Augmentis Scientiarum that nature is to be "put in constraint, molded, and made as it were new by art and the hand of man."
Those words may as well have been BP's corporate mission statement. Boldly inhabiting what the company called "the energy frontier," it dabbled in synthesizing methane-producing microbes and announced that "a new area of investigation" would be geo-engineering. And it bragged that, at its Tiber prospect in the Gulf of Mexico, it had "the deepest well ever drilled by the oil and gas industry"—as deep under the ocean floor as jets fly overhead.
Imagining and preparing for what would happen if these experiments went wrong occupied precious little space in the corporate imagination. As we have all discovered, after the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded, the company had no systems in place to respond effectively. Explaining why it did not have even the ultimately unsuccessful containment dome waiting to be activated onshore, BP spokesman Steve Rinehart said, "I don't think anybody foresaw the circumstance that we're faced with now." Apparently, it "seemed inconceivable" that the blowout preventer would ever fail—so why prepare?
This refusal to contemplate failure clearly came straight from the top. A year ago Hayward told a group of graduate students at Stanford University that he has a plaque on his desk that reads, "If you knew you could not fail, what would you try?" Far from being a benign inspirational slogan, this is actually an accurate description of how BP and its competitors behave in the real world. In recent hearings on Capitol Hill, Congressman Ed Markey of Massachusetts grilled representatives from the top oil and gas companies on the ways they had allocated resources. Over three years, they had spent "$39 billion to explore for new oil and gas. Yet the average investment in research and development for safety, accident prevention and spill response was a paltry $20 million a year."
These priorities go a long way toward explaining why the "Initial Exploration Plan" BP submitted to the government for the ill-fated Deepwater Horizon well reads like a Greek tragedy about human hubris. The phrase "little risk" appears five times. Even if there is a spill, BP confidently predicts that, thanks to "proven equipment and technology," adverse effects will be minimal. Presenting nature as a predictable and agreeable junior partner (or perhaps subcontractor), the report cheerfully explains that should a spill occur, "Currents and microbial degradation would remove the oil from the water column or dilute the constituents to background levels." The effects on fish, meanwhile, "would likely be sublethal" because of "the capability of adult fish and shellfish to avoid a spill [and] to metabolise hydrocarbons." (In BP's telling, rather than a dire threat, a spill emerges as an all-you-can-eat buffet for aquatic life.)
Best of all, should a major spill occur, there is apparently "little risk of contact or impact to the coastline" because of the company's projected speedy response (!) and "the distance [from the rig] to shore"—about forty-eight miles. This is the most astonishing claim of all. In a gulf that often sees winds of more than forty miles an hour, not to mention hurricanes, BP had so little respect for the ocean's capacity to ebb and flow, surge and heave, that it did not think oil could make a paltry forty-eight-mile trip. (In mid-June a shard of the exploded Deepwater Horizon showed up on a beach in Florida, 190 miles away.)

Central bank allays fears of Zimbabwe dollar return By KITSEPILE NYATHI | Wednesday, August 7 2013 at 14:17
The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) has moved in to allay fears that President Robert Mugabe is planning to resuscitate the local currency after winning last week's elections.
Heightened market speculation about the return of the Zimbabwe dollar saw some banks running out of cash following a run on deposits.
But in a statement on Wednesday RBZ governor Dr Gideon Gono said the local currency would only be introduced when the economy had stabilised.
"This statement serves to emphatically dismiss those rumours and to confirm that there are no plans whatsoever, within and outside the bank, for the immediate or near-term introduction of new currency or re-introduction of the Zimbabwe dollar into our system," he said.
"It may be the wishes of some stakeholders in debates, and this is a free country where freedom of speech, thought or wish is allowed, that the Zimdollar be returned immediately but these are just wishes."
He said the multiple currency regime that was introduced in 2009 after the Zimbabwe dollar became worthless would continue for the foreseeable future.
He said the local currency will circulate alongside other existing currencies with people exercising their choice of currency to hold.
"Accordingly, market players and the banking community are urged to stop panicking and instead, get on with their boardroom strategies aimed at prospering their companies and selves in the wake of the new political realities, which have been ushered in by the recently concluded harmonised elections," he said.
In the run-up to the elections President Mugabe promised a return of a gold-backed Zimbabwe dollar saying the country could not use the multi-currency system for ever.
Following the announcement of the election results at the weekend, the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange initially plunged by 11 per cent.
Zanu-PF has vowed to implement all its election promises that includes transferring the ownership of foreign banks to locals, a declaration that has left markets jittery.

Semaphores Continue Biting Intel Linux Users
Published on 23 December 2011 04:50 PM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
3 Comments
It turns out the semaphore issues for Intel Sandy Bridge Linux users continues to be present and it's resulting in
the patch from the recent Intel merge
having to be changed at the last minute within the
Linux 3.2 kernel
With the Linux 3.2-rc6 kernel, the use of semaphores were flipped on when the Intel I/O re-mapping is turned off. But it turns out that semaphores on Sandy Bridge hardware is still problematic.
For those that don't recall,
semaphore issues borked the Linux 2.6.39 kernel at the last minute
for Sandy Bridge owners too. Semaphores also caused problems during the Linux 2.6.38 kernel. With the Linux 3.2 kernel, it was attempted to flip it back on again for Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge hardware, but there's at least one report of hardware hanging when this feature is enabled.
This option though can at least be easily toggled using the
kernel module parameter. (
The 2.6.39 Phoronix article
explains the issue in greater detail.)
Due to this problem, Keith Packard just sent in a Friday afternoon patch to turn off semaphores by default for Sandy. Semaphores for Ivy Bridge is still left on, which hopefully means the support is more reliable there or at least with their current pre-production development systems as the IVB hardware is still a few months from shipping to the public.
The patch changing the default can be found on
the Linux kernel mailing list

What's up at the Greene Hill Food Co-Op these days, nine months after its soft opening? The store will open for a third day during the week starting Oct. 8. That means there will soon be Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday hours. Also, this Saturday from noon to 6 pm, members will be priming the back wall of the co-op building to prep it for a mural. (If you're interested in volunteering, email firstname.lastname@example.com.) And finally, the co-op is holding a free fall party on Saturday, Oct. 6, from noon to 6 pm at the Putnam Triangle. This is the only day non-members will be able to shop at the co-op! For all the details on the fall party, go here. And if you'd like to join Greene Hill, go here.

the back wall? the one that faces the lots on fulton? most of those lots sold recently and will be developed soon.
Yep, we'll be cleaning up the back of the building. I guess the info on iminent development of the neighboring blocks might reduce our ardor for artistic expression, but who knows… And while there will be samples of food from vendors and sales by other neighboring shops, I don't see anything about opening the store to non-members on that day – except for tours.

Men with prostate cancer who take statins to lower cholesterol are significantly less likely to die from their cancer than men who don't take such medication, according to a study from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, Washington. The new findings were published online in The Prostate.
The study, led by Janet L. Stanford, PhD, followed approximately 1,000 Seattle-area prostate cancer patients. About 30% of the study participants reported using statin drugs to control their cholesterol.
After a mean follow-up period of almost 8 years, the researchers found that the risk of death from prostate cancer among statin users was 1% compared with 5% among nonusers.
"If the results of our study are validated in other patient cohorts with extended follow-up for cause-specific death, an intervention trial of statin drugs in prostate cancer patients may be justified," Stanford said.
The new study is unique in that most prior research of the effect of statin use on prostate cancer outcomes has focused on biochemical recurrence — a rising prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level — and not on prostate cancer-specific mortality.
"Very few studies of statin use in relation to death from prostate cancer have been conducted, possibly because such analyses require much longer follow-up for the assessment of this prostate cancer outcome," said primary author Milan S. Geybels, MSc.

For most of us, the first Monday in September marks the end of summer and those family rites that usher us back into the routines of the work year. For many it marks the last festive occasion in anticipation of the gloomy, overcast days of rain, sleet and occasional snow that lie ahead. So there is potato salad and picnics in the park — both formal and informal — final outings to the beach, wiener roasts, soft ice cream, lazy pick-up softball games and smoky backyard barbecues. Summer holidays are done for school-aged kids, even if the scholastic year's been shrouded in uncertainty and angst for parents due to the dispute between teachers and the provincial government. Nevertheless, independent schools, colleges and universities are all back to the classroom. So the Labour Day long weekend remains that last opportunity for parents to see off the students and for many young families to travel to see relatives and friends.

After two deaths rocked separate music festivals this summer, organizers of this weekend's Squamish Valley event said during a media tour Wednesday that they have enough security and medical staff to deal with more than 20,000 concertgoers, many of whom will be drinking in the sun or using party drugs like MDMA.

Sony VAIO Pro 13 review
Sony pushes the boundaries of the Ultrabook concept with its slim, powerful, ultra-light VAIO Pro 13
Review Date: 15 Jun 2013
Reviewed By: Sasha Muller
Price when reviewed: £982 (£1,178 inc VAT)
Features & Design
Value for Money
The Sony VAIO Pro 13 rises from the ashes of the VAIO Z Series, Sony's legendary ultraportable. With Intel's Haswell processors and a Full HD touchscreen packed into a 13in chassis that weighs only a little more than a kilogram, the VAIO Pro 13 is an attempt to redefine what we expect from a lightweight, portable laptop.
It's a subtle evolution rather than a dramatic redesign, though. The same silver flash slashes across the laptop's rear; the same VAIO logo is writ large across the jet-black lid; and while the VAIO Pro shares its predecessor's sharp, elegant design, Sony has softened the VAIO Z's squared-off physique to create a sleeker, more streamlined appearance.
More dramatically, the redesign sees the VAIO Pro emerge as the lightest 13in Ultrabook ever to grace PC Pro's Labs. Although the addition of a touchscreen means the chassis is a hair's breadth thicker than the previous model (18mm rather than 17mm) Sony has trimmed down the weight to a featherweight 1.05kg.
As you might expect, there's a price to pay for such a pared-down design. Despite the liberal use of super-strong carbon fibre, the VAIO Pro's lightweight frame feels much bendier and more flexible than the Apple MacBook Air or Dell XPS 13. Admittedly, yanking a laptop's body to and fro is no scientific measure of a laptop's toughness, but in a field where quality is synonymous with heft and rigidity, the VAIO Pro 13's ultra-flexible chassis is a mite disconcerting.
In all the key areas, however, the VAIO Pro oozes quality, and Sony has clearly been hard at work improving on the VAIO Z Series' ergonomics. The Scrabble tile keyboard is far more responsive and comfortable than before, as each key now has noticeably more travel and feedback, and the small, moderately fiddly touchpad has made way for a much larger one with a buttonless design.
The good news continues elsewhere. Accommodating a touchscreen in a 1.05kg laptop is a feat in itself, but the VAIO Pro's Full HD touchscreen is as good as they get. The Windows 8 Start screen bursts forth in a riot of colour, and reacts instantly to the lightest brush and sweep of a finger, tiles sliding by with delicious fluidity.
The Sony's 13in display is technically excellent, too. Brightness reaches an ample 345cd/m2, and thanks to the panel's excellent black levels, the contrast ratio of 932:1 is up there with the very best Ultrabooks. The panel's colour temperature and gamma are a mere whisker away from perfection. Viewing angles are wide and colour accuracy is very good – the VAIO Pro 13's display produced an average Delta E of 3.1, which is excellent by laptop standards. The only minor niggle is that the Sony's touchscreen layer adds a slight graininess to images, but it isn't distracting.
The VAIO Pro 13 packs ample performance into its stick-thin chassis. Our review unit partnered one of the latest Intel Haswell processors – the dual-core 1.8GHz Core i7-4500U – with 4GB of DDR3L low-voltage RAM and a 128GB SSD. In everyday use, it's just as responsive as the best Ultrabooks, with ultra-quick start-up times and enough power to whip applications into view in the blink of an eye.
For raw application speed, though, Intel's Haswell processors are no quicker than their Ivy Bridge predecessors. Performance in our Real World Benchmarks was broadly similar, and the VAIO Pro 13 returned an unremarkable score of 0.62.
15" Laptop?
Lets hope that now they have managed to make a decent Ultrabook they will try and make a decent business laptop.

Precursor to the new Z series?
Kudos to Sony for stealing Apple's Air thunder.
By imaginarynumber on 15 Jun 2013
Not an Air beater
Nice try Sony but the latest Apple MacBook Air with Haswell is still better built, has longer battery life and is not hampered by Windows 8, which is the only reason it needs the touch screen!
And to top is all off the Apple is actually cheaper.

Different Pros and Cons
I don't want this to be a 'versus' type comment but simply each has pros and cons.
The two big things the Pro has over the MBA 13 is 1) better screen - 1080p IPS LCD
2) lower weight
both of which matter to me a great deal.
Both machines have great battery life, the fact the MBA now gets 10 hours rather than 7 matters not to me. I view battery life generally as a hygiene factor - a certain minimum is necessary but beyond what I need for my use, I don't really care about it.
Windows 8 - that's a personal choice. A number of people (including PC Pro staff I believe) have said that a good touchscreen laptop and Windows 8 work quite nicely together. I like Windows 8 on my non-touchscreen already.
Build quality - this matters a bit especially as I am travelling. But I would take care of any laptop I owned. My current, 5-year old cheap and plasticky laptop would not be considered to have good build quality, the plastic flexes when pushed and yet I consider it to be a tank and there's not so much as a scratch on it despite having travelled with me on a daily basis for four years to all sorts of places. So yes the MBA build quality is better but I'd rather have the lower weight.
By TheBigM72 on 16 Jun 2013
Magnificient piece of kit, just such a shame there is no Thunderbolt. It would be great to take this on the road and then at home plug the Thunderbolt to a big screen, HDs and an external GPU. I am just waiting for such a machine so I can get rid of my desktop PC once and for all.
By TheMegamale on 17 Jun 2013
No docking station port!
Over the years, a distinguishing feature of business laptops has been the presence of a docking station connection, making it easy to connect up Ethernet, power, USB and screen when you return to base. Both the Z and TZ models had this, so the Vaio Pro models are not adequate replacements.
By ngpday on 20 Jun 2013
Dear Sasha, I would like to know how the new triluminous screen, non touch version, compares to the 'old' display premium that the Z series and mine, F series has. Do you think there has been and improvement? I believe the quality has been reduced, I hope I am wrong. I think in a way the quality of the laptops regarding the screen is going backwards, at least with Sony just to save money and make laptops more competitive or affordable. If so, it is a pity since I think Sony display premium 1080p is very nice indeed as the one I am using now to write this comment.
By josito66 on 22 Jun 2013
Nobody seems to have noticed the HD-5000 IRIS in the MBA
I don't like Apple much, but Apple did manage to include a Haswell processor with an HD-5000 IRIS GPU. That makes a huge difference compared to the lame HD-4400 in the Vaio pro.
Now, if Apple would only make a little more of an effort to get Windows to run well on their machines, and quit purposely preventing user upgrades, we could talk...

Streaming video
I just bought the pro 13 with the touchscreen, i5 processor, 8gb ram, 128gb ssd and windows 8 home.
The laptop i was replacing was my 5 year old HP 530, i like to watch films and videos online and i expected the sony vaio pro 13 to stream smoothly, instead i cant watch youtube videos and stream movies without waiting 10 mins for it to load. My old hp can load and stream the video instantly and will not stop throughout.
Can anyone help and this isnt great seen as the reviews have said its such a graet laptop.

CWA: If Sandra Fluke Just Spent Less on Beer, She Could Afford Her Own Birth Control
Concerned Women for America's president Penny Nance recently sat down with CWA to discuss the different ways in which the Republican and Democrats are trying to appeal to women in their respective conventions and messages.
While the GOP was working to highlight pro-life women leaders, Nance said, the Democrats were trying to appeal to women like Sandra Fluke by handing out free birth control ... women who, if they just spent less money on beer, could afford their own birth control:
The question before us now is how are the Democrats going to handle that issue, how are they going to appeal to women? Is it going to be the Sandra Fluke sort of message that women are only interested in free birth control or free stuff at that. The question is what message works and it is a message of victim-hood, that you need free stuff from the government to be able to be productive in society?
Is this just about the idea that really all it takes to win a woman's vote is free birth control which, by the way, we know that WalMart offers it for $9 a month. I often think I'd like to say to Sandra Fluke that if you'd just had less beer in college, I think you probably could afford the birth control you wanted.

Attention all pet owners!
The good news is that we've narrowed it down to the eyes.
KITCHENER — More than 100 seniors listened attentively Monday as consultants outlined a long list of options for their beloved Rockway Centre.
The future of the facility at 1405 King St. E., will remain uncertain until city councillors vote on what to do with the 62-year-old building. The issue is scheduled to go before councillors on May 27 and should bring to a close the controversy that erupted when city officials wanted to close the leaky building in 2010.
During the next two months the city wants to collect feedback from older adults about the list of eight options for the Rockway Centre developed by recreation-planning consultants.
Robert Lockhart, of the Rethink Group, told the packed auditorium at the centre Monday that a review of the building was timely because the number of people more than 50 is increasing and by 2031 there will be more than 100,000 in that cohort in the city.
"This is the fastest-growing demographic," Lockhart said.
The options at this point:
• Repair and modify the current centre that has about 15,000 square feet spread over three floors. The cost: $2 million to $3 million.
• Expand the current building to 35,000 square feet to include several multi-purpose rooms, a gymnasium, a new lobby, social spaces, a café and a long, multi-storey, glass-walled corridor. The cost: $10 million.
• Demolish the existing building and replace it with a new building with 31,500 square feet. The cost: $8.5 million.
• Expand the Forest Heights Community Centre, which is near Queen's Boulevard and Fischer Hallman Road. The cost: $6.5 million.
• Find a new site and build a new centre with 35,000 square feet. The cost: $8.5 million.
• Add a mixed-use structure to the existing Rockway Centre. The cost: $10 million.
• Build a mixed-use structure — which could include apartments, condos, medical centre and an older-adult centre — in place of the existing building. The cost: $8.5 million.
Anyone interested in the future of the Rockway Centre can review the options at www.kitchener.ca/rockwaystudy and email their comments to the city staffer in charge of it, Mark Hildebrand, at email@example.com.
The current building leaks and has not been properly repaired. It is not easily accessible for people using wheelchairs. But when the city announced it would close the building, many older adults picketed outside the centre and successfully lobbied city councillors to keep it open.
Coun. Frank Etherington said he was disappointed the proposed options did not include possible partnerships with the private sector.
"What I want most is that the seniors decide the option," Etherington said. "The seniors I talk to want to stay on this site."
No matter what is decided, the current centre will be in use for years as the city puts together the funds to repair and expand the current site, or build elsewhere.
Joining the protesters on King Street East back in 2010 was Coun. Zyg Janecki before he was elected to council.
"I want to hear what the seniors have to say, they are the users, they are the interested party," Janecki said.
