> Companies that rely on employees to use their own smartphones and tablets at work have encountered many IT challenges. How can your organization maintain security standards if employees are mixing their professional and personal lives on their devices?

> These situations can create the perfect storm of human error, data vulnerabilities, unauthorized access, and software attacks. Fortunately, iOS 7 has introduced some compelling security features, such as Per-app VPN, new MDM configurations, and "open-in" management.

<http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/11/technology/personaltech/moving-into-a-new-macbook-air.html?_r=0>
J. D. Biersdorfer, New York Times


> The Migration Assistant program included over the last few years with Mac OS X moves pretty much all personal information — user accounts, settings, Keychain password, files, folders and programs — on the old computer over to the new one. As long as your programs are compatible with the newer version of Mac OS X, they should run fine, but you may want to look for any free software updates that may be available.

Topher Kessler, CNET


> Apple's Font Book utility is a convenient lightweight font manager built into OS X, and while it does not offer some of the advanced features of some third-party font managers, it does offer enough for most average uses. With this utility you can enable and disable fonts, import and preview them, run diagnostics, and repair routines. In addition, you can group them into collections for various uses, be it writing in a specific language, or for tasks like Web design where you might need Web-compatible fonts.

<http://allthingsd.com/20131011/apps-on-iphone-5s-crashing-at-twice-the-rate-as-on-iphone-5-iphone-5c/>
Ina Fried, All Things D


> Levy said that perhaps the reason the iPhone 5s is seeing more crashes than the equally new iPhone 5c is that, while developers were able to check their apps for compatibility with iOS 7 during several months of beta testing, the new hardware wasn’t available ahead of time.

*** Book Review: ‘I Am Malala’ By Malala Yousafzai ***
<http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/book-review-i-am-malala-by-malala-yousafzai/2013/10/11/530ba90a-329a-11e3-9c68-1cf643210300_story.html>
Marie Arana, Washington Post


> Whether an emerging nation likes it or not, its girls are its greatest resource. Educating them, as economist Lawrence Summers once said, “may be the single highest-return investment available in the developing world.”

> Nowhere is that lesson more evident than in the story of Malala Yousafzai, a Pashtun girl from Pakistan’s Swat Valley who was born of an illiterate mother, grew up in her father’s school, read Stephen Hawking’s “A Brief History of Time” by age 11 and has a gift for stirring oratory.

<http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702303918804579107122553846590.html>
Will Friedwald, Wall Street Journal


> Highly readable and never long-winded (even at nearly 600 pages), "Jim Henson" joyously documents its subject's knack for combining old-fashioned puppetry with the world's newest entertainment medium to forge a kind of furry, felt-covered vaudeville.
