Intel Plans Faster Chips That Also Save Power

This article is about how Intel has made two new processors that will run with a 45 nanometer thickness in it's wires. They are currently trying to design chips like these that are more power efficient, and do not give off much heat. Power efficiency and heat are related to one another in that the more heat something gives off, the less power efficient it is.
This article is related to electricity in that it discusses how it can be very hard to design computer chips that process faster, but still do not over heat. The perfect processor would be made with superconductors, but would not be plausable because they would have to be kept at a temperature that is way too cold.
This can be loosely related to magnetism because all electric current creates a magnetic field. I also wonder if the current in these processors can cause a magnetic field that would effect other processes of the processor or computer. Although I do not think that it is likely.

Data Show How Electronics Mix With Medical Devices

This article by Nicholas Bakalar gives details on how electronic devices may effect the performance of medical devices. It goes into detail about some cases that were experimented with, like a cell phone ringing next to some medical equiptment or a heart pacemaker stopping because of antitheft devices at a large retail store. The research on this has been very limited because cases where medical equiptment has failed because of electronic interaction is very rare and hard to prove.
I think that this can be related to magnetism because when electric current is put through a wire, a magnetic field is created. The magnetic field of one electrical device may effect another device and cause it to malfunction. We all know what happens when you put a magnet next to a laptop, even though I've never seen someone crazy enough to do it. So two electronical devices may interfear with each other if one is generating a large enough magnetic field through the current in it's circuit boards to effect the other electronical device.
