Hello there,
thanks for the list of productive team tools. I can also recommend TEAMWIESN, a web based collaboration platform with task management, wiki, central file sharing and contact management. Based on Redmine, Git & Jenkins and easy to use even for non technical team members.
Great list, we started using Trello recently. Everybody loves it! So simple to use and it gives a great sense of achievement when cards are moved over to the finish list. Best of all, it's completely free. Highly recommend it.

LOS ANGELES (UPI) — Medical information about 729,000 patients has been compromised by the theft of two laptops belonging to a California hospital group, company officials say.
The laptops, owned by AHMC based in the San Gabriel Valley, contained health and personal information about patients treated at six hospitals in the region, the Los Angeles Times reported Monday.
Officials said the computers were taken Oct. 12 from a sixth-floor office of a "gated and patrolled" medical campus. The theft was discovered Oct. 14, and the date of the theft was determined by examination of video footage, AHMC spokesman Gary Hopkins said.
The hospital group said the computers contained data including patients' Medicare or insurance identification numbers, diagnosis codes and, in some cases, Social Security numbers.
AHMC said in a statement there was no evidence the information had been accessed or used.
Hospital officials advised patients to put fraud alerts on their credit cards and check credit reports for fraudulent activity.

Multitasking has a price: Your computer is sucking up a lot of electricity keeping track of work you haven't yet saved to the hard drive. Americans spend $6 billion a year on electricity to keep that data stored in a computer's memory during operation. But that figure could drop sharply, scientists report this week, thanks to a new type of material than can permanently store such data—without needing a continuous trickle of electricity to do it.......more
Toward Better Ferroelectrics
Chemical & Engineering News,Science & Technology
by Lauren K. Wolf
August 23, 2012
New organic ferroelectric materials that operate at room temperature made their debut at the American Chemical Society national meeting in Philadelphia this week. Scientists have in the past synthesized ferroelectrics of this type—mixed stacks of electron-donating and electron-accepting small molecules. But the materials had only been able to function at cryogenic temperatures, which are impractical for real-world use.
Ferroelectrics, found in ultrasound imaging equipment and computer memory, are prized for their ability to flip polarization when exposed to an external electric field. Because the materials are currently made of inorganic compounds such as barium titanate, researchers have been seeking alternatives that are cheaper, lighter, and easier to fabricate.......more

Due to an anti-choice kerfuffle on Wednesday on whether Pre-existing Condition Insurance Plans (otherwise known as high risk pools) will include abortion coverage, President Obama seemed to quickly concede and announced a total abortion ban in the pools. This is despite the fact that this was not in the original health care reform bill. As a result, many high-risk women who may be more apt to complications with their pregnancies will not be given coverage for an abortion.
RH Reality Check has the lowdown about this and how the ban actually goes further than the executive order compromise made originally:
It is understandable that the Administration might now feel the need to honor the "spirit" of the compromise that resulted in the Executive Order. But the whole point of the compromise was to preserve the status quo, which included both restricted and unrestricted spheres of abortion funding. Moreover, the terms of the agreement were carefully negotiated. Abortion opponents who participated in the bargaining did not raise concerns about high risk pools or other specific potential sources of federal funding, and they should be able to live with the deal they made.
The worst of it is that the Administration could have at the very least set up something akin to the Hyde Amendment and the PPACA by giving states the option of using state or private money to cover abortion care costs. Instead, the Administration cited the Federal Employees Health Benefits Plan specifically as the controlling precedent for the PCIPs.
The FEHBP, like the Stupak Amendment, imposes a total ban on non-Hyde abortion care, meaning that non-federal money cannot be used to supplement premiums in order to purchase a plan that includes abortion coverage. Thus, without even any political or legislative benefit to receive in exchange, the Obama Administration has imposed a more restrictive abortion funding rule on PCIPs than is required for health insurance exchanges or Medicaid.

Over all Review of Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro Mi-535 Brown
Overall Review
Spice has launched a new mobile phone, the Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro Mi-535, thus jumping into the bandwagon of quad-core processor powered devices. The dimensions of this phone are 152 x 79 x 10.3mm and weighs 196.3gm, it is easier to hold and stylish to look at. The back cover of Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro Mi-535 has a Matt rubberized finish, which prevents it from slipping out of your sweaty hand. The display on this phone sports a 5.3-inch 540 x 960pixel resolution IPS LCD capacitive screen with 208ppi pixel density that supports multi touch functions. The right side of Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro Mi-535 has the volume button whereas the top of the phone comes with a USB port, 3.5mm audio jack, and a power button. Below the screen, we have the home, menu, and back buttons. This device runs on 1.2GHz quad-core chipset processor and is equipped with the recent Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS, which is quite fast and lag-free. This phone carries 16GB of internal memory that can be expanded by up to 32GB of external memory with a microSD card. This smartphone flaunts an 8MP autofocus primary rear camera, which is capable of taking photos in 3564 x 2488pixel resolution. A dual LED flash will allow you to take brilliant photos even in low light conditions and a 5MP front camera has been provided with this phone for video chatting options. This java enabled phone comes with a lot of connectivity options like 3G, 2G, GPRS class 12, EDGE class 12, HSDPA, HSUPA, WLAN, Bluetooth 4.0 and micro USB 2.0 respectively. This phone holds a lot of sensors to ensure its smooth run such as accelerometer, gyro, proximity sensors, and compass.
The internet browser pre-installed in this device supports HTML and opens the web pages quickly. Also, we can send SMS, email, push email, and MMS through this smartphone. The Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro Mi-535 has an active noise cancellation feature with a dedicated mic and a speaker with good sound quality. The audio player in this phone supports MP3, WAV, AAC+, and others whereas the video player supports MP4, WMV, and H.263 formats. Several user-friendly apps form a part of this phone like organizer, document viewer, image, video editor, Google search, Google Maps, Google Talk, Picasa, and predictive text input. This phone also boasts of an FM radio along with GPS and AGPS. A 2550mAH lithium polymer battery powers this device, which the company claims, will ensure a talk time of up to 4hours 12minutes and a standby time of 700hours. The performance of this device drops when it is plugged to a power source, otherwise it is very snappy with a good call quality. The video recording on the other hand is average for it captures images in qHD mode only. This smartphone is shipped in Brown colour and was released in May 2013.
User Interface and UI functionality
Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro Mi-535 runs on the recent Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS. The interface of this OS is very good and Spice has not customized it too much. So, the experience and looks are simple, clean and very smooth. As the OS is 4.2 Jelly Bean, we get the screen lock app in this phone and can install the latest app available in the Android arena. The scrolling of multitouch functions along with pinch and zoom are very smooth and without any lag. We hope that Spice will update this phone to Android 4.3 OS in due course, post its launch.
Multimedia features
Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro Mi-535 is a multimedia powerhouse, for it comes with an FM radio to help you tune into your favourite Radio jockey show. It also has a 3.5mm audio jack for you to enjoy the music. The audio and video players support a wide gamut of formats.
Audio format: MP3, WAV, MIDI, AAC+
Video format: MP4, WMV, H.263, and 3GP
This phone takes videos in qHD format and also supports polyphonic and truetone ringtones.
Pictures and Video quality

The picture quality of this phone is very good even in low light conditions because of the presence of dual LED flash however, as the video is recorded in qHD quality, it does not claim to be the best. The photos are taken in JPEG format. The front camera is also quite decent and comes good for video chatting. This phone has some basic camera settings like autofocus, smile shot, face detection, panoramic mode, Hi camera app, pizzle mode, and continuous shots.
Internet support
Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro Mi-535 comes with the stock Android HTML browser, which is quite capable of opening web pages, faster scrolling with pinch and zoom functionalities. The phone has GPRS (4+1/3+2/2+3/1+4 slots), EDGE, and Wi-Fi for faster internet connections.

The main rival of Spice Stellar Pinnacle Pro Mi-535 is Micromax A116 Canvas HD, which has better screen resolution, but the former has a bigger screen, so watching videos and internet browsing is a much more pleasant experience in it. The Spice phone has more storage than Micromax, but can't beat the same in low-pricing, an important aspect of Micromax.

The trainers at International Fitness have one goal: to help their clients achieve healthy lifestyles with internationally influenced exercise routines. The roster of classes includes Indian yoga, Brazilian-influenced Zumba dance classes, and Western weightlifting. In addition to leading group fitness classes, the instructors can map out training and nutrition plans to help clients meet their fitness goals. The sessions can include climbing the gym's rock wall to build lean muscle mass or demolishing the gym's rock wall to prepare for a career as a bulldozer.
Junkyard Athletics whisks exercisers to healthier lifestyles with a flexible schedule of challenging interval-training regimens and ever-changing workouts. Leading contingents through a series of indoor and outdoor exertion, muscle-forging instructors consistently baffle bodies with new routines that utilize available surroundings, such as grassy fields for sprints or jungle canopies for fresh-fruit retrieval. Lasso nomadic strength fibers with taxing sessions of tire dragging, jump squats, and weight training, or prepare for upcoming locomotive-pulling events with resistance-band sprints. Classes are designed to cater to all levels of fitness, and typically last about an hour.
Make a commitment to yourself and to the ones you love. Begin a process that takes you right up to The Best You've Ever Been! You can do it! Nobody's going to do it for you . . . take responsibility. Take control. And be prepared for the most empowering dramatically positive experience of your life!
The corporal coaches at CrossFit from the Ashes lead individual or small-group sessions composed of heart-pumping cardio and strength-training routines. Designed around the 10 cornerstones of physical health, CrossFit training enhances the heart's ability to tick and strengthens various muscle groups for improved flexibility, agility, and bear-wrestling skills. Weightlifting gracefully converges with nimble gymnastic movements and fast-paced cardio throughout each session, with instructors guiding clients through circuits of drills, such as back extensions followed by rowing or push-ups and sit-ups complemented by sprints. Athletes complete each session within the confines of CrossFit's spacious warehouse gym that was initially zoned for painting to-scale models of Manhattan. Currently sessions are scheduled on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays during the afternoon and evening.
Downtown Athletic Club has towered over downtown Eugene since 1985, its three historic buildings housing more than 100,000 square feet of fitness amenities and community services. Corridors open into stretches of sports courts—including basketball, handball, and racquetball—and forests of cardio and strength-training equipment. In private studios, certified instructors lead a variety of fitness classes, such as yoga, martial arts, and personal training. Meanwhile, in an onsite lap pool, coaches oversee swim lessons and aquatic aerobics, and host adult swim teams.
In addition to fitness services, the center strives to create a communal relationship among its members with its abundance of social services. Childcare professionals conduct an interactive and educational state-certified preschool, along with a wide range of themed summer camps. Throughout the week, the center holds special events for its adult members, from book clubs to wine and beer tasting at its onsite, rooftop restaurant The Ax Billy Grill. Every Saturday night, the grill invites guests to carouse to live music while sampling selections from its menu of wine, beer, and American grill-style fare. For high-brow affairs, the center's expansive banquet facilities open up for weddings, private parties, and members-only games of freeze tag.
Kipsters Gymnastics, Dance & Fitness keeps all 11,000 square feet of its facility humming with activity. In Gym A, older kids and adults bounce on eight personal trampolines and tumble across gymnastic beams and mats, while younger gymnasts practice on the pintsized trampoline and rings in Gym B. Safety-minded instructors guide dancers of all abilities through ballet, jazz, and hip-hop classes amid two dance rooms. A toy-filled playroom keeps siblings entertained as their brothers and sisters participate in tumbling, cheer, gymnastics, and trampoline classes in the main gym. The playroom's two viewing windows also let parents keep an eye on all their kids at once, eliminating the need for stuffed animal informants.
Kipsters' year-round classes and spacious facility aren't just for kids; parents can hook into the center's free WiFi or enjoy an adult beginning ballet and hip-hop classes for students 15 years and older. As the ultimate gift to caretakers, Kipsters presents weekly Parents' Survival Nights, which free up four hours of uninterrupted date time on Friday nights.

The 2014 NBA Draft is in the books, and for the third straight year the Wisconsin Badgers had zero players selected. It's also the sixth time in the last seven years that has happened. The last Badger that was selected in the NBA Draft was Jon Leuer, who was picked by the Milwaukee Bucks with the 10th pick in the second round.
Next year's draft looks to be a different story.
After a remarkable season last year, Frank Kaminsky has really risen in the ranks as one of the best players in college basketball. He's cerntainly one of the best centers in the game today. He currently holds the school record for most points in a game (43 last year against North Dakota) and his 66 blocks last season ties him for the third-best mark in a single-season in school history. Kaminsky was named the 2014 NCAA Tournament West Region Most Outstanding Player while being the key piece in Wisconsin making it to the Final Four. If Frank the Tank would have forgone his senior year, I believe that he would have been drafted somewhere in this year's draft. Another solid year this year and Kaminsky could find himself a lock as a first round NBA Draft pick.
The 2014-15 season will be the last season we see Sam Dekker in a Wisconsin Badger uniform in my opinion. Last season Dekker was predicted to be "the guy" in Madison. That changed once Kaminsky became the force he was a year ago. Start of the season I was torn between whether or not Dekker would leave after his sophomore year. As the season went on I knew Dekker would be back for one more run. And I'm not saying he had a horrible year last year. Averaging 12.4 points a game and 6.1 rebounds, Dekker was still a major player in the offense. Look for Sam to have a strong junior campaign and rise back up the NBA Draft board and also be a first round pick.
Two solid players that will more than likely end the Badgers NBA Draft drought. The highest Wisconsin player drafted was Devin Harris, who was selected fifth overall by the Washington Wizards and then traded to the Dallas Mavericks on draft night. Will one of these two players be picked higher than Harris? It's a possibility, we'll have to wait and see how this upcoming season plays out.

Are Primary Partitions Preferred?
Is it better to make all partitions on a disk primary partitions, even if they do not contain an operating system, i.e., they are data partitions? (Presuming that you don't need more than 4 partitions on a disk.)
This is the way I'm setup now - all my partitions are primary partitions - and it's based on something I read about two years ago. Of course, technology never stands still, so it may be that the original reason for doing this no longer applies. (Or possibly I misunderstood the advice I read. )
According to what I read: The starting and ending sectors of a primary partition are listed in the partition table, so these partitions are easy to find (and back up). The start and end sectors of a logical partition are stored in the previous and current logical partition. Logical partitions are then strung together in a chain, with the current logical partition pointing to the location of the next logical, etc.
This is not an issue until you have disk problems. Let's say, for example, that you have six logical partitions. Something happens on your disk to corrupt logical partition 3. The result is a corrupted logical 3 partition and an inability to find logical partitions 4, 5, and 6. They are still on the disk, but it may take forensic tools to recover them.
Is the above correct and, therefore, it is better to have primary partitions by default?
|My System Specs
|29 Oct 2012
Windows 7 SP1, Home Premium, 64-bit
I have not heard of that issue, but........
I don't see any reason NOT to use primary partitions unless forced to logicals. I'm not aware of any obvious advantage to having logicals for data partitions.
I'd like to hear about advantages to logicals myself, if any.
|My System Specs
|29 Oct 2012
Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium SP1
I do not know all that much about the inner workings of the MBR so I can't confirm or deny what you have read. But it sounds plausible. Whether or not that makes logical partitions worse than primaries is doubtful in a modern OS. It certainly makes a big difference when installing an OS, but for data I doubt it changes much at all in terms of use and maintenance.
Modern Operating Systems like Windows 7 will create primary partitions by default. This is most likely because short of having more than 4 partitions there is no reason why not to. It's just a simpler setup.
In older legacy BIOS systems using a Master Boot Record file system the user is limited to 4 primary partitions by design. If you try and add a fifth primary partition the system will default to Dynamic Disk. To have more than 4 partitions in a MBR system you then must create the extended partition and logical drives. For most people Dynamic Disks are not recommended. We get many posts here from folk having problems after accidentally converting to Dynamic Disks.
If you have a newer system using a UEFI or hybrid BIOS then your hard drive is most likely using the GPT file system. In GPT you can have as many as 128 primary partitions, and the need for extended partitions with logical drives is no longer relevant.
So, primary is better by default, Logical is better in older systems with more than 4 partitions, primary is better in newer systems. IMHO

Aaron Rodgers is on track to break Tom Brady's record of the most touchdowns in an NFL year but the crown jewel of the Green Bay Packers is more focused on his team's 2011-12 campaign. Rodgers threw four touchdown passes on Monday night, to assist the Packers in thrashing the Minnesota Vikings 45-7 at Lambeau Field.
Future Hall of Famer, Tom Brady recorded 50 touchdown passes in a year for the New England Patriots. Rodgers on the other hand has already posted 28 on the charts which means he is on pace to level or beat Brady's worshipped achievement. However, that record is not something that is bothering Rodgers.
While talking to reporters Rodgers claimed that he was more focused on helping the Patriots to a good season rather collecting personal silverware on the way. Rodgers also acknowledged that he was in good form but humbly added his teammates into the praise saying that their form had helped him achieve better.
After the Minnesota game, a reporter asked Rodgers if he was after the single season touchdown record. Rodgers replied with, "Yeah, not really thinking about that, to be honest. Rodgers added, "We're thinking about winning our division and getting a home playoff game and all of that will take care of itself. I just want to be efficient and consistent and get us in good situations. If we're doing that and I'm not turning the ball over, we're going to be in every game."
Rodgers also stated that he would like the Packers to strengthen their weaknesses. Although the Packers completely annihilated the Vikings, Rodgers wasn't completely pleased with the Packers play. Rodgers pointed that there were still a couple of weak spots the Packers had to deal with on field.
"We had way too many negative-yardage plays and I think we left some yards out there on the field," Rodgers said. "But they have a good defense. They did some good things tonight, kind of slowed us down there a little bit in the first half. We've got to be a little bit better converting those third downs early on."
Truth be the told, the mere idea of Rodgers and Co. getting better this year will provoke nightmares in the rest of the NFL.

ADHD in Children Health Center
Kids With ADHD Have Higher Healthcare Costs
Also, did treatment for ADHD make any difference in numbers of hospital visits? Did visits decline after treatment began? In her study, some children with ADHD diagnoses were not treated for the disorder. Some children with ADHD may not have been diagnosed, she says.
"Our study raises many more questions than it answers," Leibson tells WebMD. "But with further analysis, we can tease some of those answers out."
Abramowitz questions whether families living within driving distance of the Mayo Clinic are representative of the general population across the U.S.
"They conducted this study in a very health-conscious community, she says. "People in that community, with their rather unique access to information about healthcare, may be more likely to go to a doctor when something is wrong. ... Maybe some of these parents aren't so typical."
"It's true that those in our study were 95% Caucasian ... and that we do have a large population in the healthcare profession," Leibson says. "So the sensitivity to these healthcare issues might be heightened. But the prevalence of ADHD we found was comparable to other geographical areas, which shows we are not under- or overdiagnosing ADHD."
Researchers received funding for this study from Eli Lilly Co. and from the Public Health Service of the National Institutes of Health.

Data Security
State AGs, federal regulators work together on privacy, data security and more
Nevada AG Catherine Cortez Masto and FTC Commissioner Julie Brill provide the keynote for day two of the Women, Influence & Power in Law Conference
Financial institutions suffering from global cybercrime
Organizations are reticent to reveal the severity of cyber attacks on their systems, thereby injuring their reputations, which makes it difficult to measure how serious the costs have been to businesses.
State AGs begin Home Depot cybersecurity probe; senators urge FTC action
As details about Home Depot's confirmed data breach begin to trickle out, two U.S. senators and five states, have stepped in to help determine exactly how the breach occurred and the extent of the damage.
GCs and counsel warn about the dangers of the current cybersecurity age
As companies are focusing more on the issue, general counsel have been increasingly called upon to serve as the leaders spearheading cybersecurity issues and compliance.
Be careful marketing doesn't also drive one of your company's biggest risks: Online privacy litigation
If you don't know exactly what your marketing company is doing — particularly as it relates to data collection and use — you need to find out, and then make sure to update your privacy policy to disclose those practices.
Home Depot confirms potentially record-setting data breach
The company said that the breach could impact customers who shopped at Home Depot stores across the U.S. and Canada between April 2014 and the beginning of September 2014.
Considering your e-discovery options
The basic premise is, as always, the better you understand your needs the more efficiently you can determine a solution and the more money you'll save.
Verizon settles with FCC over missing privacy rights
On Sept 5 the Federal Communication Commission announced that it has reached a settlement with Verizon, closing probes into the way the company handled its customer's privacy rights. Verizon will pay $7.4 million.
Risk strategies to avoid becoming a cybersecurity casualty
Identification and preparation for the most likely situations could be the difference between your firm surviving the threat or becoming another unwilling casualty.
Home Depot investigating potential data breach
Home Depot announced on Sept. 2 that it was looking into "unusual activity" that could indicate a possible breach of customer credit card and debit card data.

MacBook Air 11-inch £849
29th Nov 2010 | 15:56
Has the MacBook Air finally come of age with this new 11-inch version?
MacBook Air 11-inch review: Overview
Although an excellent technological achievement, the MacBook Air has previously struggled to find its niche in the Apple notebook range. It was too expensive to compete with the low-end MacBook, and not powerful enough to replace the higher-specced MacBook Pros. It was light, beautiful and desirable, but unnecessary.
The late 2010 release of the MacBook Air represents a major update for Apple's ultra-thin notebook. The form factor has had a major overhaul, and there's now four off-the-shelf MacBook Air configurations instead of two. Interestingly, two of the MacBook Airs have 11-inch screens, making them the smallest Apple notebooks since the Powerbook 5300 Series back in the mid-'90s.
The two 11-inch models use 1.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processors and cost £849 and £999 respectively, while the two higher-end MacBook Airs once again use 13-inch screens, run on 1.86 GHz Core 2 Duo processors and cost £1,099 and £1,349.
The new MacBook Airs benefit from several technologies developed for the iPad. While the last generation of MacBook Air offered a high-end flash storage model and a cheaper release that used a hard drive, the entire MacBook Air range has now gone over to solid state drives.
In fact, the two 11-inch MacBook Airs and the two 13-inch releases are differentiated only in the amount of solid state storage they have. The 11-inch MacBook Airs have 64GB and 128GB respectively, while the 13-inch models offer 128GB and 256GB.
But there's more to the new MacBook Airs than a switch to solid state storage. The new notebooks have an interesting new form factor, extended battery life and although processor speeds are nothing to write home about, new graphics technologies give them a power that belies their on-paper clock speeds.
But can the late 2010 revision reinvent the MacBook Air as a realistic alternative to a MacBook or MacBook Pro, or is it still no more than a useful second notebook?
MacBook Air 11-inch review: Specifications
The MacBook Air we're reviewing here is the more expensive of the two 11-inch models, costing £999. Like all MacBook Airs, it has no optical drive, but you can share a computer's hard drive over a network using Remote Disc or invest in an optional USB SuperDrive.
This generation of MacBook Air supplies its system software and applications on a read-only USB flash drive, so you don't need an optical drive to reinstall it.
Like all new MacBook Airs, this 128GB 11-inch model uses flash storage. Instead of encasing the chips in a 2.5-inch SATA enclosure, they're mounted on a card resembling a RAM stick. It uses an mSATA connection, and without the drive casing, is around 90 per cent smaller and lighter.
The saved space has been used to enhance the battery capacity, giving the 11-inch model up to five hours' use from a single charge.
The 11-inch MacBook Air's 1.4GHz Core 2 Duo processor could be seen as a backwards step. A Core-i series chip was never on the cards. A legal dispute prevents Nvidia graphics chipsets being integrated into Intel's new processor family, and a there's no room on the logic board for a discrete GPU. As a result, Apple had to stick with the Core 2 Duo.
Even so, the previous generation of MacBook Airs offered 1.86GHz and 2.13 GHz Core 2 Duos off the shelf, making this 1.4GHz CPU look underpowered. The graphics chipset has received a boost, though. All the new MacBook Airs use an Nvidia GeForce 320M, the most powerful integrated graphics chipset currently available.
Like the rest of the range, this particular MacBook Air has 2GB of RAM, expandable to 4GB if you buy online and use the custom options.
Its 11.6-inch glossy widescreen LED-backlit display has a pixel resolution of 1,366 x 768. The unibody production process has been brought to the display housing, which is now milled from a single piece of aluminium, just like the main body of the notebook. It uses 48 per cent fewer parts, allowing for a thinner yet stronger MacBook Air.
The new MacBook Air now boasts stereo audio, and has two USB ports instead of the previous generation's one. The USB ports are mounted on either side of the notebook. There's no FireWire connectivity, and unlike the 13-inch models, this 11-inch MacBook Air doesn't offer an SD card reader.
MacBook Air 11-inch review: Performance
On paper, this 11-inch MacBook Air looks underpowered, but don't underestimate what it can do. Its solid state storage is twice as fast as hard disk drives, and its integrated Nvidia GeForce 320M graphics chipset is the most powerful currently available.
As a result, it's quite capable of playing in-depth and system-hungry gaming titles. Doom 3 ran at over 50 frames per second, even with the graphics quality turned up to maximum, and it plays a mean game of Call of Duty 4.
It can also handle high-definition movies with ease. Our 1,280 x 720-resolution copy of The Hurt Locker ran perfectly smoothly. Naturally, stereo speakers give the new MacBook Air's audio greater depth, but if you're serious about your multimedia, it's best to invest in a set of external speakers.
Although the 11.6-inch screen is the smallest to grace a Mac notebook in well over a decade, it's not at all difficult to use. Its screen resolution of 1,366 x 768 pixels is higher than that found on a typical 13-inch laptop, and its LED-backlit high-resolution display gives crystal clear image reproduction and great viewing angles.
Obviously those whose work demands a large screen won't be satisfied, but for everyone else, it's fine. After a while it doesn't feel any smaller than a 13-inch screen.
The 11-inch MacBook Air's battery gives five hours' use from a single charge and, like all modern MacBooks, if you close the lid without powering down, it goes into Sleep Mode. Thanks to technologies developed for the iPad, after an hour in Sleep Mode it enters Standby Mode, an ultra-low-powered state that can last for up to 30 days before it drains the battery.
Yet as soon as you open the lid again, it's instant-on. This is a fantastic feature that's great for those times when you use your notebook in short bursts instead of for long periods, such as when working away from your desk or on holiday.
There are one or two negative points. It doesn't have built-in 3G internet access, though you can get online using the Air's Wi-Fi or a 3G USB dongle. Adobe Flash isn't preinstalled, so the first time you boot up, you should go to http://bit.ly/mwfN1 and download it, and we mentioned the lack of an SD card reader.
But far more irritating is that there's no backlit keyboard for low-light conditions. This feature has proved incredibly popular in the past, but now it's back to tilting the screen forwards to light up your typing. Why this innovative and useful feature was removed is anyone's guess, but we hope it returns for the next MacBook Air release.
MacBook Air 11-inch review: Verdict
The late 2010 MacBook Air represents a radical overhaul for Apple's ultra-thin notebook, not least because of the introduction of a new 11-inch model. The Intel Core 2 Duo processors are nothing special, but they combine with the Nvidia GeForce 320M graphics chipset and solid state storage to give the new Airs a much better performance than you might expect.
We liked
The Nvidia GeForce 320M graphics chipset is the most powerful integrated solution currently available. Switching to solid state storage and installing the chips and controller on a RAM stick-like circuit board instead of enclosing them in a 2.5-inch casing the same size as a hard disk drive is a masterstroke. Not only is it much lighter, but it frees up room for extra battery power.
Standby Mode, where an Air in Sleep Mode for an hour enters a deep hibernation state, means you can leave the MacBook Air switched on closed for up to 30 days, but have it instantly accessible as soon as you open it again. It's great to have two USB ports and stereo speakers too.
We disliked
There isn't much to dislike about the late 2010 release of the MacBook Air, but we do miss the backlit keyboard. It's a real shame this useful and popular feature had to go, but if you use your computer in the dark, maybe in bed, it's back to switching on your bedside lamp or tilting the screen forward to illuminate the keyboard.
Some will bemoan the lack of integrated 3G internet access, but we're not too bothered. You can always connect through a 3G dongle or a MiFi unit. It's a pity there's no SD card reader in this 11-inch model too, but we accept it had to go for the sake of space.
With the late 2010 release, the MacBook Air leaves behind its novelty image and becomes a genuine rival to the entry-level MacBook and MacBook Pro. It has a power that belies its on-paper clock speed, a gorgeous screen and with its new battery and energy-saving technology, instant-on convenience.
We miss the backlit keyboard, though, and hope it returns in the next generation of MacBook Airs. It's still pretty expensive too, with the range starting at £849 and this particular model costing £999.
It might not be a notebook for everybody, but if you want something that's powerful, convenient and portable, it just might be the notebook for you.

Included in that following of tartelettes is my very own best friend, Alissa. In fact, she may just be one of the biggest tarte fans out there and she is also my #1 support— this is one of the greatest things about my best friend. Alissa is also an avid collector of all things tarte. (It helps that her #BFF is always willing to share). Today is her birthday; and so, I wanted to celebrate her in a BIG way. Her favorite product of all time is our "carried away" collector's set which many of you know is SOLD OUT. While preparing for the Golden Globes coverage this morning, I stumbled upon one last remaining carried away set in the PR closet. To celebrate my #BFF, I will be hosting a contest to WIN the very last "carried away" set (that you cannot get anywhere else) for your best friend and something equally as sweet for you! All you have to do is tag her in the comment section under one of the #BFF pictures above. We'll ship it to her, love you. But wait, there is something for you too if you and your #BFF win, we'll send you 4 sets from our Baby, it's bold outside limited-edition collection listed below:

We'll admit it: we can be a bit flighty, but when it comes to our beauty regimen, we make sure our makeup routine changes with the seasons — yours should too. Bronzer just doesn't have the same bombshell effect in the winter! Here are our top cold-weather beauty tips. More >

May 5. 2:21am I received a text from Liu Yanping: I was just released. Because I gave a birthday cake to Chen Guangcheng's son this afternoon I was carried into the hospital by 7, 8 plainclothes policemen and security guards. Later I was questioned at Hujialou police station for 9 hours, suspected of disturbing social order. Thanks.
