More Sparkfun geiger counter explorations
My last blog entry was about playing with the Sparkfun geiger counter and some initial explorations. Since then have written some software to acquire data from the geiger counter (GC) that, while still kludgy, is good enough for me to distribute for other people to use. The programs with an explanation of what they do will be on the downloads section of my web site RSN.
The data shown below is from 135409 events spanning an interval of 5.9 days with the GC sitting in my Kamloops basement. Most of the events are background radiation but there's also the K40 events that are more frequent when I sit in front of my laptop as the GC is on my desk downstairs. The background radiation I've been measuring is nonstationary as it started off at about 14.5 cpm and most recent average is 15.9 cpm. Not sure why this is happening and the simplest thing to do in such cases would be to buy more GC's and set them up close together. Unfortunately Sparkfun is sold out of GC's at the moment. So, the anomalies in the data presented are of unknown origin at present.
Below is a histogram of all of the event intervals thus far seen. It's been truncated at 25 seconds although there are events past this mark with the longest interval without an event being around 45 seconds. The histogram has been normalized by dividing by 135409 and an exponential of the form y = A + B*e^Cx fitted to the data.
One expects an exponential function in this case, and a beautiful exponential fit is obtained using only 8 iterations in DPlot. What interested me more was the oscillation about the curve fit line rather than the actual fit.
If the data were truly random, then one would expect any such periodicities to average out and one would have a closer and closer fit of the curve fit to the raw data. What we have instead are these curious damped oscillations which are spaced roughly 400 msec apart. They are artifacts of the recording system and, in any system involving windoze, one can almost assume that windoze is the problem. To determine whether this is the case am currently writing code to take the raw GC intervals and digitize them using an mbed MCU. Not as straightforward as doing it in VB, but far more artifact free than a windoze system. Let's now take a look at the artifacts we have to deal with:
As the event interval increases, the value of the residuals drops off markedly. As was noted in my previous blog post, there appeared to be far too many short intervals -- I attributed that to a problem with the GC but it is more likely that my sampling platform is more likely the problem. To get a better idea of what is going on with these residuals, let's compute their FFT:
The large peak is at a frequency of 2.52 Hz and the secondary peak is at 5.04 Hz. This gives a period of 397 msec which is very close to what we've eyeballed at 400 msec. The big question now is what's responsible for this artifact?
Windoze is not a real time OS even though it's possible to sample data at a high rate of speed from windoze. The only time where one can get undistorted data sampling from windoze is through a sound card. Anything else, unless external buffering is done, is highly distorted. I naively assumed that the distortion present in sampling GC at 1 msec precision would be on the order of the error I get in sampling keyboard under windoze which is +/- 15 msec, or 1.5% error. However, there are obviously some higher order systemic errors that one has to deal with.
One of the things I've done in the past to reduce sampling errors is to run a program in real time mode whereas this seemed to make absolutely no difference with sampling GC data. The code for GC MCU is open source and will be analyzed to see if there is any reason why the 2.52 Hz anomaly should be there, but I'm 99% sure that the source of the problem is windoze.
Windoze uses a byzantine software path to get the data from the GC to my VB program. Interfacing to the GC takes place via the USB_serial driver which treats the GC as an RS232 serial data source. The GC is transmitting only one byte for every event and one would think that getting the timing of this byte right would be trivial on a 1.6 GHz processor. The byte is transmitted almost simultaneously by the GC to the host windoze machine. This is in the form of a USB packet which will interact with the windoze USB_serial driver. The USB_serial driver then probably stashes the byte it recieved into a buffer. My VB program uses the MScomm control to acquire data from the "serial port" to which it's connected. The MSComm control is configured so that it will raise an event as soon as a single byte comes in on the "serial port". Will have to look at how the USB_serial driver communicates with the rest of windoze but I suspect that what happens is that a message is sent to my VB program from windoze. This message is then routed to the MSComm control which raises the event noting that data is present and my program then grabs the data and reads the value of the msec timer using TimeGetTime() call.
Being a preemptive multitasking OS, windoze will suspend my process if a higher priority process has to run. I do admit that I run a lot of simultaneous programs on the machine that I'm also running the GC interface but, at any time, most of these programs are in idle mode. Nevertheless, it appears that very frequently the data from the GC is delayed by 400 msec after being recieved by the USB_serial driver. This may also explain the excess number of short intervals as, if there are two events ready to be transmitted after the delay, they will occur at a far shorter interval than they actually occurred. My next step is to do some research into WTF is going on in windoze that could result in this 2.52 Hz frequency in the OS as this seems far slower than one would expect for an OS with a time quantum of 10 msec allocated/thread. Given that most idle process threads would relinquish their quantum almost immediately, it seems bizarre that this long delay would exist. I'm interested in other peoples opinions on this subject.
Note: next run of the Geiger counter sampling program yielded peaks that were spaced 250 msec apart. This is clearly a windoze problem and may have to run the program under W3.1 to get better accuracy.

Incolor provides some great products at reasonable prices.I love there eyeshadows and blushes a lot. Recently, I was in West Delhi for some hopping and shopping and couldn't resist going to my favourite cosmetic shop.
The store salesperson showed me some 5-6 new eyeshadows and blushers and when I saw this, I was like,â€it's a bridal kind of shade, I want , I want!!!!†and really, every time I use it or swatch it, it looks very apt for bridal makeup.
- Price:Rs.240
- PACKAGING:The blush is housed in a round shaped container with a transparent plastic lid and brown lower body having shade name and ingredients.The shimmer is swired so beautifully on the blush that no one can resist.It resembles baked blushes!!!
- SHADE:The shade no.15 is a very very pretty pink with a tad bit of peach(for glow) and has golden shimmer.The shimmer might be OTT for some.Since, I am in a shimmer love phase so I am loving the shimmer.It is very much visible on application but after few hours, the shimmer fades away and the blush shade becomes all the more lovely!!!
TEXTURE, FINISH & STAYING POWER:The texture of the blush is smooth however, the shimmer might be overpowering for some.Although,the particles aren't gritty but you can feel them on touching meaning that they are not finely milled.
The finish is shimmery and the little peach effect provides wonderful sheen too.That is the reason,I feel this is a bridal shade.I am surely going to use it on the wedding that I am going to attend. It stays for about 4 ½ hours- 5 hours and the shimmer doesn't disappear but fade a little bit after 2-3 hours.
What I like about Incolor Glimmer Blusher 15:
- Beautiful shade.
- Reasonably priced.
- Didn't break me out.
- It didn't clog my pores or overemphasised on them!
- The packaging is sturdy however prone to breakage.
- All ingredients are mentioned.
- Decent staying power for the shade and price!!!
What I don't like about Incolor Glimmer Blusher 15:
- No name provided.
- Dull packaging with no brush and mirror(although these are useless!)
- The shimmer has a bit of fallout.
- Not easily available.
- No product description anywhere on the packing or online.
- The shimmer might be OTT for some.
Recommendation:Â I find this a very pretty shade for winters and would definitely recommend it at the price you have to pay.
Will be buying so more Incolor cosmetics …swatches coming soon!!!!

3Dconnexion SpacePilot Pro, USB, Optisch, 0.88 kg, 231 x 150 x 58 mm
|Downloads & links:
|Social media:
|The key to SpacePilot PRO's smooth and intuitive 3D navigation is the patented six-degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) sensor. With four times the precision of previous sensors it can detect input as small as 4 micrometers (that's about 1/25 of a human hair!).
Simply push, pull, twist or tilt the 3Dconnexion Cap to pan, zoom and rotate. It's like reaching into the screen and holding the model in your hand. This unparalleled level of control encourages model exploration leading to improvements in error detection and design quality.
The second generation QuickView Navigation Keys extend the power of the controller cap by providing one-touch access to 32 standard views enabling users to instantly view models from any angle for improved error detection, design review and design presentation.
ISO1 shows the model with the top/front/right sides facing front. ISO2 shows the model withthe top/back/left sides facing front.
A short press rotates the view by 90 degrees clockwise. A long press rotates the view by 90 degrees counter-clockwise.
The full-color LCD provides visual feedback on the function keys, navigation setting status and workflow applets ensuring quick access to important information without interrupting the users workflow.
The SpacePilot PRO LCD is based on an open software architecture that encourages the development of customized applets.
Applets are mini applications, specific to SpacePilot PRO that run on your computer and display on the LCD. Applets range in functionality from office productivity tools to feedback on function key assignment. The following applets are supplied by default: Function Keys, Outlook® Mail, Outlook® Calendar, Outlook® Tasks, RSS Feeds.
The mail applet retrieves information from Microsoft® Outlook® and displays the most recently received e-mails including the sender's name and the e-mail subject line. Pressing the LCD OK key on a selected e-mail opens the e-mail in Outlook on your main computer screen. You can also view information on tasks and calendar entries.
During the course of developing 3D models, designers may want to restrict navigation to certain planes or axis. For example, when creating 2D sketches of 3D profiles, it is useful to be able to pan and zoom but not rotate the view. The SpacePilot PRO navigation setting keys allow users to personalize how the controller cap works by restricting navigation to certain axis. The status of each navigation settings key is displayed in the LCD Function Key Applet.
Dominant mode filters out all motion except for data coming from the axis that is being actuated the most.
Turn off translation motion along the three primary axes so the model can only be rotated.
By turning rotation off, users can focus on smooth, simultaneous pan-and-zoom navigation only. This is ideal for work modes such as sketching or for quickly inspecting standard views of your model.
Adjusting the SpacePilot PRO navigation speed, changes the amount of force or torque that needs to be applied to the controller to move a model or environment. Lower the speed for detailed, close-up work and increase the speed for design reviews and presentations.
Each MCAD application environment, such as sketch, part or assembly has its own set of tools and processes. SpacePilot PRO automatically recognizes the active application and environment and assigns 10 relevant application commands to its dual-function Intelligent Function Keys. Visual feedback on function key assignment is provided by the color LCD. This seamless process ensures the right tools are available at the right time and as there's no need to use the standard mouse or keyboard to select the commands, users experience a significantly streamlined workflow.
Users can easily customise the SpacePilot PRO Intelligent Function Keys to their own preference. In addition, all other function keys (excluding the LCD keys) can be customised giving users the opportunity to assign up to 31 commands.
The convenient Ctrl, Shift, Alt and Esc keys allow users to simultaneously navigate their 3D model while accessing special application functionality or editing capabilities. This significantly reduces the need to move the hand from SpacePilot PRO to the keyboard, resulting in a more optimized workflow.
The FIT key instantly restores the active model to the center of the screen while the MENU key opens the 3DxWare™ or application specific control panel for accessing essential SpacePilot PRO settings.
The soft coated, sculpted wrist rest guides the hand into a natural, comfortable position, while the symmetrical design means SpacePilot PRO is equally suitable for left or right handed users.

Junior Art Majors' Exhibition
April 5 – May 8, 2019
Boland Hall Gallery
Reception: April 5, 4-6pm
Caela Abadie
Andres Deschapelles
Andres Deschapelles is inspired by the geometric forms found in abstract art. In this exhibit, he combines his passion for animals with vibrant colors and marked shapes. The animals portrayed
are discernable but have a hint of abstraction.
Deschapelles would like to show viewers the beautiful creatures that are in danger of losing their habitats because of human encroachment. Habitat destruction is one of the leading causes of species endangerment. "My dream is to start a reptile and wild animal sanctuary to save these magnificent creatures who are dying off at a tremendous speed due to human behavior," says Deschapelles.
Anissa Wilson
Anissa Wilson has been fascinated with the ocean and its plentiful life forms since childhood. Her aim is to recreate the beauty that exists within it, not only for herself but for those unfamiliar with ocean life. "Our oceans and beaches are less thought of and are getting neglected. Coral reefs are dying, our waters are polluted, and marine life is suffering in the place they call home," says Wilson. Society must address pollution issues so that the allure of the sea remains intact. "I want to continue to create ocean related drawings to remind people of the beauty that once flourished without threat from humanity," reflects Wilson.

text: This hand-made glass is perfectly designed to highlight and intensify the olfactory sensations an, the wine-tasting experience, while also properly oxygenating the wine. Its shape is highly original, characterized by a central bulbous ring referred to as 'the ring of Saturn'. The wine glass was created after a thorough study of the invisible aromas that emanate from the wine. Some of these aromas rise quickly to the free space in the glass in an attempt to escape, while others return to the wine. And that is not all: bouquet and perfumes intrinsic to the grape varietals and their 'terroir' also rise to the rim of the glass and disappear. The central bulbous ring of the glass (the ring of Saturn) traps these precious molecules. It also optimizes the oxygenation of the wine and prevents the formation of deposits in the wine glass.

Assumption College Placement Cell
The Placement Cell of Assumption started getting really active by 2001-2002.Even then it was not very easy getting agencies to include us in recruitment programmes. But we were able to get placement offers for Communicative English and Fashion Technology students, though the former prefer to go for higher studies. It was only with the boom in IT and related industries that Arts and Sciences Colleges like Assumption were targeted.
There were visits from Frankfinn Institute of Air Hostess Training and Campus Abroad. There were also various Job Fairs conducted by Shreds, Big Leap Solutions and Versat Consultancy Services. Many students participated in these job fairs and also in the campus recruitment programme conducted by Wipro, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Genpact.
The HR department along with the placement career cells made available various opportunities to the students in the college to test their aptitudes, make the right choice of a career with exposure through a fest and to participate in campus Recruitment drives conducted all over Kerala. This year 80 students got selected in various reputed Multinational Companies and well known organizations such as TCS, Infosys, Goan Institute of Communicative English. The HR department chalked out a comprehensive programme to help students to nurture the right attitude to brave today's competitive world. It periodically organizes occasions for public speaking, mock interviews, workshops, seminars and group discussions on relevant topics.
This year HR department provided training for various competitive exams like SSC (CHSL and CGL) Coaching Classes are arranged for registered applicants of all the students of our college in different batches which consists of 200 students. The sessions are handled from 3:30 PM to 5 PM twice in a week. The department is having tie-up with well experienced faculties from corporates as well as non-corporate sectors for the development of the students career.HR cell also directs students for various intercollegiate competitions organized by different clubs.
Career seminar conducted by HR department on 31st October 2016 ,the sessions were handled by Dr.P C Aniyan Kunju , Mr Binu kannamthanam, Mr .Tippson Joseph and Mr kuruvilla Joseph. MORP-(macfast out reach programme) conducted in our college as a four day programme from 25th to 30th august 2016 the session were handled by MrShibu Chunkathil and Mr Sanesh p Varghese on the topic Employability Building Programme.

|CAP (Campus Ambassador Program)
After being selected as the ambassador from Assumption College, I was asked to go to Bangalore for a weeks training. We left for Bangalore on the 23rd and on reaching Bangalore we were taken to the main Infosys campus in Bangalore.We were told that we would spend the first three days in Bangalore and the next four days in ILI Mysore (the main training center of Infosys)
For first three days in Bangalore, we had talks by eminent personalities like Mr.Amitabh Chaudhry (the CEO of the Infosys BPO industry), Mr.Subrat Mukherjee (team leader). We also had a session-"WALK THE FLOOR". In this session we went to the offices and saw how they worked.
On the 25th,we left for Mysore.The actual training began in Mysore.This was given to us in the form of Business Games like mazes, promotion of a service or building in ILI Mysore and a ten minute presentation on the things we learnt in those seven days.
The days spent in Bangalore and Mysore has taught me a lot. It has definitely boosted my self-confidence, taught me how to work in a team, be creative and also how to make a lasting impact on people. Altogether it was once in a lifetime experience that I had got in a weeks time.

I loved this article on Book of Life about small pleasures:
"We are dominated by striving: for better relationships, work and personal lives. Restless, we think, is synonymous with success. Nothing should be good enough for long. But, in so concerning ourselves with unattainable levels of excellence, we overlook more modest pleasures, closer to home."
"A pleasure may look very minor – eating a fig, having a bath, whispering in bed in the dark, talking to a grandparent, or scanning through old photos of when you were a child – and yet be anything but: if properly grasped and elaborated upon, these sort of activities may be among the most moving and satisfying we can have."
It really rang true for me. Those tiny moments throughout the day are usually what end up making my day, and I want to remember to cherish them. A recent small pleasure:
I found this piece of dried lichen (??) the other day while out on a walk, and I brought it home with me. It now lives happily on my kitchen window sill. I think it's so beautiful — like blooming flowers.
More recent small pleasures I can remember: adding chocolate milk to my coffee, and a kiss on the forehead after a long day:). Share yours, if you feel like it! XO
P.S. The secret to becoming adventurous.

I love all of those grocery store magazines at the checkout that show pics of what not to wear. This week I saw one that I just had to share. Here is some fashion advice for Tammy Faye Kim:
- Honey, shoulder pads have not been in since the '80s. Please go burn that jacket.
- You don't wear that much eye makeup unless it's Halloween. That's five months away.
- It is not a good idea to use a Sharpie as an eyebrow pencil.
Normally I think Kim Kardashian is a fashion icon. I am not sure what was up when she wore this outfit. Am I wrong or is anyone else wondering where is Jim Bakker?

It's that time of year again! When produce flows in abundance, and canners all over scramble to get everything put up before it goes bad. So far I've been busy canning green beans and cucumbers from our garden. Berries are coming into season, so that will be next. I was telling Jada this morning how thankful I am that the Lord created things to come in at different times of the year. If everything matured at once, we'd never get it all up!
If you remember, this is only my second year canning. But let me tell you, last year, I canned EVERYTHING I could get my hands on! And I'm excited to be learning how to put up even more this year.
After doing a poll it looks like a lot of you guys would be interested in seeing a tally on my sidebar where I will list my canning progress for the year. It'll be a good way to keep myself motivated as well. Kinda wish I'd done it last year. Keeping track of how much you can of each item will help you know how much your family uses in a year so you can be sure to can enough next time around.
My goal this year is to spend less, and grow more of what I can. I'm not really interested in beating some super canning record, I just wanna try to find ways to get my hands on produce without paying so much for it. Growing it myself, gleaning from other gardens, and bartering for goods are ways I plan on doing so.
Do you keep track of your canning totals each year? Will this be your first year canning? I'd love to know how much you plan on putting up this year!
If you are new to canning or want to get started canning, you might be interested in checking out my DVD: At Home Canning For Beginners and Beyond.

What is Telemedicine?
Telemedicine, sometimes referred to as telehealth services, involves the remote diagnosis and treatment of patients via telecommunication technology which can include telephone and/or video.
Why Telemedicine?
According to the American Medical Association (AMA), 80% of all visits to the doctors office, Urgent Care, and ER could have been handled through a telemedicine consultation. Just having access to a plan can save the average family of four over $1000 per year in unnecessary medical expenses.
Most people dislike going to the doctor or Urgent Care clinic because they have to wait for hours to be seen and sometimes end up getting sicker than they were because they catch illnesses from other patients. Telemedicine is a fast, convenient, and affordable alternative. It can be used from the comfort of your home and coverage costs less than 20 cents per day for you and your family.
Telemedicine Benefits
A telemdicine plan from Freeway Insurance offers many benefits, including:
- A convenient alternative to Urgent Care or an ER visit, which can be time-consuming and costly
- Access to US doctors 24 hours a day, seven days a week
- An affordable option for customers who do not have insurance
- Family coverage: individual, spouse, and children legally residing in the household are all covered under one plan
- A free discount brochure that can save you and your family money on prescriptions, theme parks, and more
Common Uses For Telemedicine Services
Telemedicine services can be used for a number of non-emergency situations, such as:
- Diagnoses of common medical problems such as headache, sore throat, allergies, asthma, bronchitis, cold or flu, ear infection, pink eye, digestive problems, and many other issues
- Inquiries about various medical issues for home treatments
- Holiday, weekend, and late night consultations when regular medical care is not available
- Patient inability to leave the house due to sickness or bad weather conditions
How Does a Telemedicine Plan Work?
Using your telemedicine plan is easy and convenient, and care is available 24 hours a days, seven days a week. Here's how it works:
- Patient calls the telehealth number and speaks to a representative
- Representative requests basic information from the patient, including demographics, credit card details (if needed for co-pay), and symptoms
- A doctor calls back within 15-30 minutes to conduct the consultation and provide a prescription, if needed
Telemedicine Plan Cost
Telemedicine plans from Freeway Insurance are affordable costing around 20 cents per day. There are two types of plans available:
6 Month Plan: $60
12 Month Plan: $100
Use of the service is unlimited, but a $25 copay applies for each call.

Bridging the Gap in Supply Chain Finance for UK Importers
16/Ιούλ/2014 • International Trade•
With cross-border trade becoming a reality for more businesses, it is vital for UK SMEs to access the global market place in order to remain competitive. Ebury is responding to this situation with a new solution to add to our growing portfolio of services. Trade Finance provides businesses with a credit line for financing trade, both cross-border and within the UK.
Roman Itskovich, Head of Trade Finance, commented that, 'We're really excited by this new addition to our existing FX services. Ebury is looking to lend to businesses with a minimum turnover of £1m a year, which have established relationships with their vendors. We can provide a credit line for up to 120 days, for up to £1,000,000, allowing time for the goods that they have purchased to be imported and paid for by their customer, before they need to repay Ebury. This delivers significant cash flow and working capital benefits to their business.'
Ebury Trade Finance delivers benefits to both UK buyers and their suppliers. UK buyers can trade with the confidence of a cash buyer, negotiating better prices and terms, introducing greater efficiency into their supply chain and improving their relationships with suppliers. Suppliers can obtain accelerated, non-recourse finance as soon as the buyer accepts the goods or services. Suppliers will receive payment directly from Ebury with no further cost or liability to them and in their chosen currency, as we are able to utilise our established foreign exchange service. Also there is no need to submit onerous credit assessments.

Muse have revealed they might ditch the album format and only release new material as singles from now on.
Although the band are currently in an Italian studio working on new material, the Teignmouth trio have admitted they want to experiment with the way that new material reaches fans.
Speaking to NME.COM frontman Matt Bellamy said: "I don't think we're going to approach the next album like we're making an album."
He added: "I like the idea of releasing a series of songs, every month or every couple of months – just putting songs out there. Almost like making the single a more prominent format, and then every few years doing a best of from that period and that would be the album. So in other words, throw out songs every couple of months and see how people like them."
Read more about Muse's future plans, including their new focus on singles and their forthcoming headlining V Festival performance, in this week's NME, out in all good newsagents now.

Huge reductions of harm will be gained when cannabis is rescheduled down from the current draconian status, Schedule I. Legal and social harms inflicted upon users of marijuana by their government is by far the greatest source of harm associated with the plant substance.
- Physically, to the user and socially, to the community, cannabis is far SAFER than alcohol. Unlike alcohol, its use is not associated with violent crime. Or any crime, aside from the "crime" of use of cannabis.
- Legally, however, cannabis is a mine field of harm. Marijuana is deemed among the most dangerous of all substances, Schedule I, demanding draconian punishment, often years or decades of mandatory imprisonment.
- Drug warriors in the USA, especially the DEA, have resisted all efforts to reschedule cannabis, as such as step would lessen the very need for the Drug Enforcement Administration. The agency has profited greatly and grown cancerously during the four decades of the war on drugs.
Any medical usefulness of cannabis belies the drug's Schedule I status that specifically stipulates that the substance is of no medical use. All efforts to down schedule cannabis have been rebuffed, usually by including reference to the lack of support by the American Medical Association, the AMA.
History shows that the AMA protested the criminalization of cannabis by the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937. But congress drug warrior mentality was at work and the legislators wanted to hear nothing of cannabis' medical utility, and the protestations of the AMA were dismissed.
For the next 72 years, the medical use of cannabis was forgotten by the AMA. Appeals to the group concerning increasing evidence of medical utility and the poor fit with Schedule I went unheeded. Finally, in 2009, the AMA is changing its stance, and will argue against continued Schedule I status and to promote cannabinoid research.
This move, though long overdue, is of great importance. Prohibitionists seeking to maintain the most restrictive (and harmful) schedule will now find their position ad odds with the country's major association of physicians.
Cannabis should really be moved out of the responsibility of the DEA altogether, as that agency has only lied and shown great self-interest in keeping cannabis illegal and preventing medical studies. If the drug remains scheduled, it should be Schedule V, the least restrictive. But even moving it to Schedule II would provide harm reduction by decoupling from the harshest enforcement and provide health promotion by opening the floodgates of medical research.

John Boehner's Exit Will Cost Mitch McConnell a Kindred Spirit
WASHINGTON — More than a year before a difficult election cycle when he will be challenged to hold on to his hard-won Republican majority, Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky may have already suffered his most significant loss — the pending departure of Speaker John A. Boehner.
Over the past six years, the two Republican leaders have developed a bond of the type that has not always existed between House and Senate leaders of the same party, figures who are often pulled in opposite directions.
More important, Mr. McConnell and Mr. Boehner agreed that engaging in the kind of brinkmanship that led to a government shutdown two years ago as well as the threat of a federal default on financial obligations was unacceptable as well as damaging to the Republican Party and its electoral prospects.
Now, faced with defending Republican seats in a presidential election year in such potentially difficult states as Florida, Illinois, New Hampshire, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, Mr. McConnell is convinced that Republicans must avoid disruptions that can make them look incapable of governing.
Given the legislative uncertainty in the aftermath of Mr. Boehner's retirement, Mr. McConnell is hoping for one more act with the speaker, by pushing with Mr. Boehner to resolve some pressing issues before he exits at the end of October.
On Tuesday, Mr. McConnell said he and Mr. Boehner would like to begin talks with the White House on a budget agreement that would set spending levels for the next two years, through the end of President Obama's term.
Spending is just one of the issues up in the air along with a need to increase the federal debt limit, an expiring highway program and the continuing push to renew the Export-Import Bank.
"We're going to have to deal with all of these issues between now and December the 11th," Mr. McConnell said. "How much of that could come together before Speaker Boehner leaves, I have no earthly idea."
While Mr. McConnell wants to keep things on something of an even keel through November 2016, it is uncertain how Mr. Boehner's replacement will feel. But it is very likely the incoming speaker will be compelled to go further than Mr. McConnell in challenging Mr. Obama and Congressional Democrats to satisfy the conservative forces that helped oust Mr. Boehner.
"Senator McConnell is going to be in an interesting position," said Dan Holler, a spokesman for Heritage Action for America, a conservative group and the political arm of the Heritage Foundation that has been critical of both Mr. Boehner and Mr. McConnell. "Whoever the next speaker is going to be is more than likely to embrace a more adversarial position with the Senate."
Mr. Boehner's decision to step aside will also focus more of the conservative fire on Mr. McConnell, who made it his job in 2014 to prevent primary challengers backed by Tea Party groups from knocking off incumbents or challengers backed by Senate Republicans. Citizens for the Republic, a conservative activist group that includes former Attorney General Edwin Meese III on its board, on Tuesday urged Mr. McConnell to resign.
But Mr. McConnell does not face the internal dissent that Mr. Boehner has weathered for years; he is not leaving, nor do his colleagues want him to.
"Here, there are 54 of us, and we know each other so well and we have close personal relationships," said Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona and a man who has clashed with Mr. McConnell in the past over issues including campaign financing. "There are only a very few senators, maybe one or two here, who don't support him."
One of them, Ted Cruz of Texas, is among four Republican senators running for president. Mr. Cruz has been openly critical of Mr. McConnell, and the role he and the others play as the first primaries approach will add another layer of complexity for the majority leader.
Overall, though, the mind-set and culture of the Senate is also much different from the House, as evidenced in the overwhelming vote on Monday to advance a stopgap spending bill without language to end federal financing for Planned Parenthood, as demanded by House conservatives.
"It's important for our party to demonstrate that we have the competence to govern," said Senator Pat Toomey, the Pennsylvania Republican who has a tough re-election fight next year.
As they eyed the upheaval in the House, Senate Republicans said that Mr. Boehner's departure may serve as a catharsis and allow some consensus to be found.
"I think the work to do is obvious and the challenges are well known," said Senator Roy Blunt of Missouri, who has served in leadership roles in the House and Senate. "I'm hoping that Speaker Boehner's decision reminds everybody that when leaders aren't allowed to lead, they decide to do something else."
Whatever happens, Mr. McConnell is not likely to concede too much power to the House. He will probably push the Senate to take the legislative lead to keep the government churning as he did in by stepping in front of the House to advance a measure to keep the government open. The Senate is expected to approve that legislation Wednesday and quickly send it to the House for a vote before the fiscal year ends at midnight.
When Mr. Boehner found himself under siege in the past, Mr. McConnell was more than willing to act unilaterally. He has cooperated with Democrats, such as when he worked with Senator Barbara Boxer of California, to put together a bill to fund the nation's highway system. And he has repeatedly reached out to Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. to hammer out fiscal compromises.
Mr. McConnell declined on Tuesday to offer House Republicans any guidance on replacing Mr. Boehner, though he acknowledged his familiarity with Representative Kevin McCarthy, the California Republican and majority leader considered the favorite to become the new speaker.
"I do know Kevin," he said. "We have a good relationship."
He noted that he and his fellow Senate Republican leaders would work with "whatever team the House ultimately selects." But for Mr. McConnell, it will not be like working with John Boehner.

Amanda Milling, Member of Parliament for Cannock Chase, has branded the current situation in Cannock Chase, which has resulted in no Sunday bus services, as ludicrous.
Following Staffordshire County Council's removal of their subsidy for some local bus routes, Arriva then made the decision to withdraw a number of services across Cannock Chase, including all Sunday services, stating that these services were no longer commercially viable. The Cannock Chase MP has since met with Arriva to request that they go back to the drawing board and determine a new model for Sunday Services across Cannock Chase.
Amanda Milling MP said: "The situation is ludicrous. It is simply unacceptable that there are no bus services in and around Cannock Chase on a Sunday. I recently met with representatives from Arriva, stating my total and utter dissatisfaction with the situation and urging them to have a complete rethink. Arriva need to look again at the routes they offer and think 'outside of the box' to find a solution which will deliver all important bus services which members of the public value and rely on. If existing routes are not viable, then they need to go back to the drawing board and assess where there is demand. I can't help thinking they need to look at bus travel in our area differently, and rather than looking at the current services and working from there, looking in a much more forward-thinking way and creating a new model for bus services. There are multiple ways of achieving this and they have committed to review all options. Whatever solutions they come up with, we need to see our Sunday services return."
The Cannock Chase MP also wants Arriva to look at how their services interlink with the rail network and various other local destinations needing bus connections, such as the Orbital Retail Park and the Mill Green designer retail outlet village, which is to open in a few years' time. Once the electrification works are complete on the Chase Line, the frequency of trains will improve. Amanda Milling MP believes that the Chase Line can provide inter-town connections between Rugeley, Hednesford, Cannock, Walsall and Birmingham. However, the local bus network must then provide onward connections for passengers to get to and from their homes and other areas where there are no stations, such as Norton Canes.
Amanda Milling MP added: "One of many complaints people make is that the bus services don't connect with train services on the Chase Line. With the electrification of the Chase Line being completed this year and a more frequent service being rolled out between now and the end of the year it is an ideal time for Arriva to look at how bus services can connect with the rail service."
The Cannock Chase MP concluded: "The time has come to put an end to this salami slicing of existing bus services. It is not the solution. Arriva must now go back to the drawing board and start again, and look at future bus travel in and around Cannock Chase which will deliver the services that people want and will use."

Keywords: search terms, ESI, risks, benefits, keywords
A large corporation has been sued on behalf of a putative nationwide class. As discovery begins, in-house counsel is concerned about the cost and time involved in collecting, reviewing and producing the relevant emails, shared documents and other electronically stored information (ESI) throughout departments and across offices. As a way of containing these costs, in-house counsel is considering applying targeted keyword searches to the company's ESI to narrow the scope of the document collection, review and production.
Why Use Search Terms?
Keyword searches apply a set of designed queries against ESI to identify documents that contain the key words or concepts. This enables parties to perform the difficult, and frequently expensive, task of separating potentially relevant materials from irrelevant ones using an automated, time-saving process. Courts have traditionally accepted keyword searches as a means of evaluating large ESI collections. Accordingly, keyword searches are among the most common automated tools for fulfilling the obligation to conduct a diligent search.
Risks and Benefits of Using Search Terms
Keyword Searches May Be Discoverable under Some
Parties often work with their in-house or external counsel to formulate keyword searches. As a result, the keywords selected may also incorporate attorney opinion work product and, therefore, be shielded from disclosure by the attorney client privilege and/or the work product doctrine. However, some courts have taken the position that the fact that keywords were used to collect the documents is not, by itself, protected under either the attorney-client privilege or the work product doctrine. There are even courts that have held that the keywords used to conduct an electronic search may be discoverable despite the fact that they may reflect attorneys' opinions about what may be relevant in the case. These courts have concluded that keywords relate to the facts contained in the documents to which they are applied and do not believe that the selection of keywords reflect an attorney's legal advice or mental impressions. Because a keyword search used during pre-trial discovery may be discoverable, parties can reduce the risk of disclosure of attorney mental impressions by selecting keywords, and crafting searches, in a way that does not disclose overarching case theories or other attorney opinion work product.
Cooperation Can Cut Costs
In some circumstances, it may be beneficial to cooperate with the other side and jointly agree early in the discovery process on what keywords to use and how to use them. First, some courts require the parties to cooperate, or at least meet and confer about search methods.
Second, where both parties possess a considerable amount of ESI, both have strong incentives to streamline ESI production through keyword searching. But even where there is an imbalance of ESI, cooperation in choosing keywords may be possible. An agreement on keywords and how they will be used can reduce the producing party's ESI-related discovery costs while giving the requesting party input as to how ESI will be collected without the substantial time and expense of contentious meet-and-confers and motion practice. Even if the parties are unable to reach a full agreement concerning ESI production, partially agreeing on which keyword terms will be used, and how the producing party will use them, may streamline the discovery process.
Third, as one court has framed it, "there is such a thing as discovery karma[.]" Lee v. Max Int'l LLC, 638 F.3d 1318, 1321 (10th Cir. 2011). This is particularly true for cooperative efforts toward reaching ESI-agreements early in the litigation, where doing so can improve a party's position in future discovery disputes. Agreements concerning keyword searches can later be used as a defense against claims that relevant evidence was not produced. In some instances, courts have denied motions to compel production of additional ESI where the parties had previously agreed on what keywords to use and how those keywords were to be applied. Further, while courts have the authority to shift some or all of the costs of ESI production from the producing party to the party demanding the material, many courts are reluctant to grant such requests when the party seeking the cost shifting did not first make an effort to control its ESI discovery costs through ESI-related agreements with opposing parties early in the litigation.
Cooperation Offers Control
While courts are becoming more sophisticated in dealing with ESI discovery disputes, no court or requesting party will know the documents better than the party with the ESI. Using agreed upon keyword searches means that the keywords used to collect ESI are devised, at least in part, by those in the best position to appropriately tailor them to fit the documents, rather than by a judge or opposing counsel with little way of knowing that the difference between adding or subtracting even a few terms could lead to tens of thousands of additional documents that need to be reviewed.
How To Test Proposed Key Word Searches
The first step in formulating a keyword search is determining which terms would be most likely to retrieve potentially relevant documents—without, as noted above, risking disclosure of attorney opinion work product. A proposed keyword can have multiple, unrelated meanings (i.e., homonyms), and a single meaning can be expressed through multiple words (i.e., synonyms). As a practical matter, ensuring that all reasonable synonyms are included in a keyword search is often more important than attempting to avoid over-collection caused by homonyms, as it can be easier to rule out irrelevant documents than to engage in follow-up searches for missing, but relevant, data.
Moreover, studies have shown that humans are poor at predicting what keywords will appear in relevant documents. Thus, under some circumstances, other automated methods of collecting ESI—including processes known as concept clustering and predictive coding—may be beneficial to fill in gaps in the collection. Consideration should be given to costs and potential benefits of using these technology-based solutions, and the parties may consider how best to address the use of advanced technologies during the initial meet-and-confer process.
The use of appropriate search methodology can be invaluable in managing the costs and time involved in collecting, reviewing and producing the significant volumes of data that come into play with ESI. Courts are beginning to encourage parties to reach early agreement on search terms, date ranges, key players and the like. Thus, the use of search terminology or advanced search technology is an important part of the early discussions relating to ESI. Parties may be able to agree on appropriate search methods, including key terms, key concepts and date limitations, and craft search protocols and procedures that allow for the possibility of refining or expanding those terms as discovery progresses to ensure that they are reasonably tailored to yield responsive information.

Here at OMD we sometimes need our minds blown. You know, to keep things interesting. In those situations we turn to these super deep moments in some of our favorite Disney movies. It's like giving ourselves a pep talk. We have a think. We take a moment. And we move on. Join us, won't you?
"The past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it." – Rafiki, The Lion King
Rafiki is pretty wise. And this is great advice. We're glad we got it second-hand and Rafiki didn't have to hit us on the head with a stick to drive the point home…cough, cough…Simba…cough, cough.
"No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dream that you wish will come true." – Cinderella, Cinderella
Cinderella never gives up. She has a dream and she goes after it. We love that.
"Don't think and don't worry. When the times comes, you'll know what to do." – Helen Parr, The Incredibles
What a perfect "mom" thing to say, right? Helen Parr, you're doing parenting right.
"If you don't think, then you shouldn't talk." – March Hare, Alice in Wonderland
Oh. Snap. That is all.
"You just need to believe in yourself." – Rex, Toy Story 2
Rex could say anything and put a smile on our face, but this makes us feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
"Sometimes the right path is not the easiest one." – Grandmother Willow, Pocahontas
We have never met a wiser tree. And that's saying something.
"The only thing predictable about life is its unpredictability." – Remy, Ratatouille
Remy is teaching a valuable lesson about going with the flow. We made a note in our "feelings to have everyday at specific times" calendar about this. We shall go with the flow tomorrow from 10-11am.
"If watching is all you're going to do, then you're going to watch your life go by without you." – Laverne, The Hunchback of Notre Dame
We mean, wow.
"I was so upset, I forgot to be happy." – Eeyore, Winnie the Pooh
Oh, Eeyore! Why can't we give you a hug!? But seriously, this is deep. We shouldn't dwell on upsetting things that are stopping us from being happy. Eeyore gets it.
"The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all." – Emperor, Mulan
We heart the emperor; he thinks Mulan is the bees knees and we'd have to agree. So all you Huns who underestimated her, don't you feel silly?
"Like so many things, it is not what's on the outside, but inside that counts." – Merchant, Aladdin
This is totally a metaphor, guys. He's talking about the dusty old lamp, but he's also talking about Aladdin! #DiamondInTheRough
"Trust. It's what friends do." – Dory, Finding Nemo
Dory pretty much says it all here. Even when she can't remember who she is, she always remembers her friends.
"A lie keeps growing and growing until it's as plain as the nose on your face." – The Blue Fairy, Pinocchio
The Blue Fairy doesn't mess around. She tells it like it is. Don't lie, guys. Just don't.
We hope these super deep quotes have made you put your chin in your hand and ponder things. What things? Well that's totally up to you. Most likely things in this article, but whatever floats your boat. We feel like we're rambling because we're still recovering from the awesomeness of these quotes, so we're gonna stop now.

The other day, i went KLCC to watch Superman with SarahTwiddleMonster. Ya, i know i'm very the outdated but what to do? It's not easy for me to watch a movie in KL ya know. I have to walk under the hot sun, to catch the bus/taxi to the lrt station. Then take the lrt to KLCC which is the nearest cinema around my area. The worst thing bout it is, rarely anyone wants to be my movie date because it cost so much to watch a movie here compared to Penang. Even getting it at student price is expensive, Total Average Cost = > RM18
In penang, watching a movie is, getting into the car, go gurney. Total Average Cost = <>
See the differences??
Back to the movie… I think it's 2 hours of flying here and there 30 mins of action. =.=||
Clark Kent doesnt look HUMAN at all..His face is sooo smooth..and looks silky/plasticky! He's like someone that pops out from some anime.. Weird… and OOOHHH!! I so hate the pigtail-fringe that is always there when he transform. So mengspoilkan the whole macho handsome look.
Anyway, i think the nicest thing from the whole movie is the kid. SOOO CUTE CAN DIE!! He's so freaking adorable i want to bring him home as my pet d…hahahahaah Basically, it's more like a comedy than anything to me because me and SarahTwiddleMonster just couldnt stop finding fault with the whole movie and laughing at it. Muahahaha …
That's all for my review of the money wasting movie…
Today i went all the way to Seremban for a coursemates bday, photo will be up soon. Tomorrow, high chances i'll be going Genting to watch the World Cup Final !!
Germany just won 3rd placing as we all sooooooooooo expected. Woohooo!! I hope ITALIA will lift the 5kg cup this year! FABIO FABIO FABIO!

A development company is being urged to provide some affordable housing at a proposed development in Pocklington.
A planning application expected to be around 200 houses is imminent for land off The Mile, in Pocklington.
The proposed build is intrinsically linked to the flood alleviation scheme which would protect 130 houses in Pocklington against flooding.
But the West Wolds Branch of the Labour Party believes that the developers Persimmon Homes should not be able to deny the town affordable housing because of their contribution to the scheme.
Richard Bryon, chairman of the branch, said: "We welcome the build. In towns and villages like Pocklington, Market Weighton, Wilberfoss and Stamford Bridge it's needed. We also welcome the Flood Alleviation Scheme,
"Pocklington flooded really badly in 2007. That's the worst I've seen it in recent years but it has been a problem through the years – I think it has got worse."
In the East Riding, the amount of afforable housing necessary for every new build over 10 houses is 25 per cent. Although an exact number for the amount of houses has yet to be confirmed, it is expected to be around 200 houses meaning 50 should be under the scheme.
Mr Bryon added: "We understand that 25 per cent might be unrealistic but we think maybe five to 10 per cent should be provided.
"I've seen so manypeople benefit from affordable housing."
Recent developments haveincluded the required amount of affordable housing and have also paid out through the section 106 agreement in communted sums which goes to the community.
Mr Bryon says even 10 affordable homes is better than none.
He added: "We are going to take them to task on this, we feel this is something that should be provided.
"I don't know whether or not we'll get there, but we are going to try."
Having written to Persimmon Homes regarding affordable housing, Mr Bryon received the following reply: "The contribution [to the Flood Alleviation Scheme (FAS)] required is substantial and the scheme can therefore only afford to pay for either the Pocklington FAS contribution or provide affordable housing. Unfortunately, the scheme is unviable if both are provided and therefore, neither can be delivered."

The Brange and the Button in NOLA
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie attended a very low key screening of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button last night in New Orleans. Button has been described as a love letter to the city and the film is currently receiving very warm reviews in advance of its December 25th release. As you'd expect the Brange will be hitting the carpet hard in tandem to support its Oscar run.
As usual, they make a fine looking couple. Decidedly less exciting when there's no Pitt Porn, almost pedestrian actually, but very, very attractive nonetheless though am unclear as to why her face seems so waxy nowadays. Little powder wouldn't hurt…
Nice change from her boring black though style wise it is a little old. And even a little Granny Freeze too. Not exactly the best inspiration. Who wants to be compared to Nicole Kidman?

Silver Fern Farms is investing to link consumers of its premium retail products back to the farm.
The company's chief executive Dean Hamilton says the investment in traceability will support the growth of the company's Silver Fern Farms branded products.
"We want to deliver transparency in the food chain for our consumers who are increasingly interested in knowing where their food has come from and that their food has been produced safely, with care and in a sustainable way.
"The investment is across our chain of care and in linking those elements together," he says.
"Our new retail packaging that is being progressively rolled out here and overseas will have two new traceability features. Firstly, the packaging will contain a unique, fraud-proof, QR code on every pack. This will allow the consumer to scan the code to verify that it is an 100%-authentic Silver Fern Farms product. It will show which region in New Zealand the product came from, link the consumer to stories of our farmers in that region as well as recipes for that specific product that has been purchased.
"Secondly, we have been working with New Zealand-origin verification company Oritain for over three years to develop a scientific traceability system for our products to provide proof-of-origin certification for our consumers. Through linking with Oritain our new retail packaging will be able to provide absolute confirmation to the consumer that the product is true to our '100% made of New Zealand' commitment.
"We're excited by these new and innovative consumer-facing traceability developments and the further trust this will build with consumers and Silver Fern Farms."
Silver Fern Farms general manager sales Grant Howie says investing in robust systems through the supply chain is becoming crucial for food producers. Ultimately, he says, the company would like to provide traceability from the consumer to the individual farm.
"We're investing now to create that opportunity in the future. We can certainly see a time when premium consumers will want to know how that farm is sustainably operated, what care has been provided to the animals, and the environmental aspects of the farm. The vehicle for that information we believe will very likely be FarmIQ – the online central information hub we developed in a Primary Growth Partnership with the Government and Landcorp," says Howie.
"The use of the FarmIQ platform is growing strongly amongst New Zealand farmers, with over 1,400 farms now using it. Silver Fern Farms has invested over $5m in the last seven years in developing the software and we're pleased to see the broad industry uptake. Allowing a consumer of our Silver Fern Farms product to "look into" information from a farm that grew the product will provide that next level of food trust and authenticity with our brand."
