Chorus 11 Rear Derailleur
When it comes to effectively conducting the chorus of your cassette, few options can rival Campagnolo's Chorus 11 Rear Derailleur. The Chorus model does make some concessions to its more expensive Record and Super Record counterparts. Namely, it makes 13 and 17 concessions, respectively, which are the number of grams of extra weight it carries in comparison. As far as function goes, the Chorus has the same internals and receives the same updated operation, but at a price point that appeals to the self-sponsored cyclist.
The brains of the derailleur are the cross section springs, which have rectangular cross sections for an increased return load. In conjunction with the new Chorus shifters' cable pull ratio, this translates to faster, more precise shifting — in both directions.
The parallelogram's motion as you shift across the cassette has also been revamped for 2015. It corresponds to the size of each cog, so the top pulley stays the same distance away from the cassette whether you're using the crit-spec'd 11-23 or the all-terrain 11-29 cassette. This keeps the chain seated securely on the cassette at an angle of engagement that transfers maximum power into propelling the bike forward. It also reduces wear on your chain and cassette.
The parallelogram and cage are made with carbon, while the upper and lower bodies are made from a technopolymer that's lighter than metal but can still stand up to any abuse from the elements or the occasional user error (read: crash). The Chorus model's pulleys don't get the same lightweight polymer of the Record and Super Record derailleurs, and its parallelogram doesn't have the weight-reducing cutouts. It also uses steel bearings and small parts instead of the ceramic bearings and titanium of its more expensive counterparts.
The Campagnolo Chorus 11 Rear Derailleur is only compatible with 2015 Campagnolo Super Record, Record, and Chorus drivetrain components. Compatibility can be confirmed by matching the letter on the body's underside with the corresponding markings on your other drivetrain components.

Campy 4 Life
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I've been a Campy guy for 25 years; oh, sure, I've dabbled with the alternative lifestyles that are Shimano and SRAM, but my heart will always be in Italy. Just made the upgrade from 10-speed to 11-speed on my Richard Sachs, and decided to go with the workhorse Chorus group, instead of the spendier Record or Super Record groups. So far, I'm impressed. Even though the new levers are shaped differently than the old 10-speed Record stuff, they are still super comfortable, still shift just as well (if not better), and are still as sexy to look at as Campy has always been. Really looking forward to more saddle time outside as we pass out of sprinter and into summer.

Nitro, Duqu, Poison Ivy, Video Proof, and the Advanced Persistent Threat as Industrial Espionage
November 7, 2011 3 Comments
In a recent post, Duqu Enables Stuxnet Level Complexity Against Commercial Targets, I made the case about the advanced persistent threat in the context of commercial targets and industrial espionage, specifically in the wake of the Duqu attacks. I also went on record as saying that Triumfant will detect the Duqu attack, but, in fairness, I offered no real proof of that claim.
Then along came news about Nitro.
On October 31, Symantec release a whitepaper about a new attack called Nitro that initially focused on human rights organizations and then moved on to the auto industry and then to the chemical industry. According to a story about Nitro on eWeek.com: "At least 48 companies are believed to have been targeted across various industry verticals, including 29 companies involved in research and development of chemical compounds and companies that develop materials for military vehicles. The other 19 were in other sectors, including defense."
Symantec reports that the purpose of Nitro was to collect information, specifically intellectual property that could be used for competitive advantage. That would certainly seem to fit under the definition of industrial espionage. The attacks collected user IDs and passwords to sensitive systems so they could be accessed for later attacks and exfiltrations. Which is exactly the case I made about the significance of the Duqu discovery.
The Symantec report also stated that Poison Ivy, a product available off the shelf to create Trojans and other malware, was used to created Nitro. Which leads me back to the claim that Triumfant could see Duqu. I made the assertion that Triumfant would see Duqu based on a study of the analysis provided about the attack. I am quite confident, and other technical people in our organization are quite confident, that Triumfant would detect Duqu, but I had no proof as I do not have the attack to test.
In the case of Nitro, I know for certain that Triumfant has successfully detected malware created by Poison Ivy. Third party testers have used Poison Ivy to validate the efficacy of Triumfant and we passed when other tools failed. We use Poison Ivy to test internally. And I can offer proof – a video demonstration where we infect a machine with Poison Ivy we created and show Triumfant detecting and repairing the attack. You can watch the video here.
Obviously I take no satisfaction in hearing about a successful attack like Nitro. I do think that Nitro reinforces my position that the advanced persistent threat can no longer be treated as a problem for the NSA, CIA, and the DoD. Commercial organizations ate at risk and must take stapes to put solutions in place that will provide rapid detection and response to these threats.
I will be shamelessly opportunistic to leverage the fact that Nitro used Poison Ivy to add credibility to the ability of Triumfant to see the attacks that evade other defenses. This time I have video proof.

Although Georgia's constitution was amended in 1835 to authorize a Supreme Court, Acts of 1835, p. 49, it was not until 1845 that the Legislature established an appellate court, Acts of 1845, p.18. Prior to 1845 a new trial before a new jury in the local court was the only procedure available for the correction of judicial error.
Before 1845 the decisions rendered in the state's courts were characterized by a lack of uniformity. In 1828 Governor John Forsyth, later Secretary of State under both Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren, lamented:
"Under the present arrangement of eight Judges of the Superior Court, each confined to the circuit for which he was elected, supreme in his authority, not bound by the decisions of his predecessors or contemporaries, and not always by his own, while these will be in their turn disregarded by his successor, there can neither be uniformity nor certainty in the laws for the security of the rights of persons or property. . . The confusion produced by contemporary contradictory decisions, everyday increases – property is held and recovered in one part, and lost in another part of the state under like circumstances – rights are asserted and maintained in one circuit, and denied in another, in analogous cases." Georgia House Journal, 1828, p. 15.
In his message to the General Assembly in 1845, Governor George W. Crawford, as had every governor since 1824, urged the formation of the Supreme Court:
"Eleven Judges, each supreme in his authority and capable of being appealed from himself only to himself, cannot presume to decide with uniformity. Without uniformity law itself is a chance and has been aptly called a miserable servitude. " Georgia Senate Journal, 1845, p. 11.
Prior to 1801 the judges of Georgia's superior courts met annually to make rules and reserve points of law which might require argument and a uniform opinion. An act of 1801, however, expressly repealed that portion of the Judiciary Act of 1799 which provided for this procedure and required:
"[A]ll points reserved for argument, and now waiting a decision at the seat of government, be and the same are hereby directed to be sent back to the respective counties from whence they have been sent, and there decided by the presiding Judge." Clayton's Digest, p. 38.
Upon the repeal of this procedure for resolving difficult points of law, the judges of the various superior courts began the practice of informally conferring at the annual convention for the making of rules. But the General Assembly sought by resolution to halt even this practice after three superior court judges met "pretending to be in legal Convention" and declared certain acts of the Legislature unconstitutional and void. Georgia House Journal, 1815, pp. 47-50. The apparent hostility of Georgians toward appellate courts in general may have stemmed both from their perceived mistreatment at the hands of the United States Supreme Court in the early landmark case of Chisolm v. Georgia, 2 Dall. 419 (1793), which resulted in the eleventh amendment to the United States Constitution, and the ongoing battle between the Supreme Court and governors of Georgia over the Cherokee Indians. Continued animosity between the Legislature and the superior court judges as well as concern about the expense and delay of litigation were also reasons for Georgia's delay in instituting an appellate court. Almand, "The Supreme Court of Georgia: An Account of Its Delayed Birth," 6 Ga. Bar Journal, p. 95.
Once the bill implementing Georgia's Supreme Court was passed in 1846, enthusiasm soon replaced early skepticism. Although it had been predicted that within ten years the Court would decide all questions of law and thus no longer be necessary, Governor George W. Crawford, in his annual message to the Legislature in 1847, remarked:
"The Supreme Court, whose establishment was so long of questionable utility, in the opinion of several Legislatures, has realized to the fullest extent the expectations of its most steadfast advocates. Its usefulness has proven its necessity. It is reforming the irregularities necessarily incident to the old system of judicature, by impressing the stamp of uniformity on all its decisions." Georgia Senate Journal, 1847, p. 16.
The General Assembly's last reservations had apparently vanished by 1858 when an act was passed providing that the decisions of the Court have the force of law: "
[F]rom and after the passage of this act the decisions of the Supreme Court of this State . . . shall not be reversed, overruled or changed; but the same is hereby declared to be, and shall be considered, regarded and observed by all the Courts of this State, as the law of this State, when it has not been changed by legislative enactment, as fully, and to have the same effect, as if the same had been enacted in terms by the General Assembly. Acts of 1858, pp. 74-75.
The Supreme Court's first session was held at Talbotton, Georgia, on January 26,1846. The first three judges chosen by the General Assembly to serve on the Court were Joseph Henry Lumpkin of Athens, Eugenius A. Nisbet of Macon, and Hiram Warner of Greenville. Their salaries were set at $2500.00 per year.
At the time of the creation of the Supreme Court, Georgia's population stood at approximately 800,000. The state was divided into eleven superior court circuits, and the judges of the Supreme Court traveled the state holding court in nine different localities during the course of the year. Travel, which was at each judge's own expense, amount to over 1,000 miles per year, only 300 of which were covered by railroad. Cases were decided at the term submitted; decisions were handed down from the bench orally and only later reduced to writing. The hardships involved in riding the circuit lasted until shortly after the Civil War when the Constitution of 1865 provided that the Court would sit at the seat of government.
The Constitution was amended in 1896 to provide for the addition of three justices to the Court and to provide that justices and the chief justice would be elected by the people. A seventh justice was added by the Constitution in 1945, and the Appellate Jurisdiction Reform Act of 2016 authorized two more justices for a total of nine.
The Georgia Constitution of 1983 provides that the Supreme Court shall be a court of review and shall exercise exclusive appellate jurisdiction in certain cases. The extent of the Court's jurisdiction is controlled jointly by the Georgia Constitution and by the Appellate Jurisdiction Reform Act of 2016.
The Supreme Court has jurisdiction in:
- all cases involving the construction of a treaty or of the Georgia Constitution or of the Constitution of the United States and all cases in which the constitutionality of a law, ordinance, or constitutional provision has been drawn into question;
- all cases of election contest;
- equity cases involving a sentence or potential sentence of death;
- all habeas corpus cases;
- extraordinary remedy cases involving a sentence or potential sentence of death;
- all cases certified to it by the Court of Appeals and all cases where the Court of Appeals is equally divided; and
- all cases in which a sentence of death was imposed or could be imposed.
Additionally, the Supreme Court may answer any question of law from the Supreme Court of the United States, any District Court or Court of Appeals of the United States, or any state appellate court and may review by certiorari cases in the Court of Appeals which are of gravity or great public importance.
The Supreme Court has the power to make such orders as are necessary in aid of its jurisdiction or to protect or effectuate its judgments.
Officers of the Court
Clerk/Court Executive. The Clerk/Court Executive is appointed by the Court for a term of six years "unless removed for incapacity, improper conduct, or neglect of duties." The duties are specified by statute. The Clerk/Court Executive has charge of the Court's records, keeps the Court's Minutes, and is the administrative officer of the Court.
Reporter. The Reporter of the published opinions of the Court is appointed by the Supreme Court. The duties are specified by statute. The Reporter serves as the official reporter of the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeals.
Law Clerks
Law Assistants. The justices are authorized to appoint law assistants to serve at their pleasure. They must be duly qualified attorneys, licensed to practice law in the state at the time of or within one year of their appointment. They are not permitted to practice law while employed by the Court. Their duties are to assist the justices in the research and preparation of matters for decision by the Court.
The Court operates under Rules adopted by it for its administration and for the guidance of the bar and litigants.
These Rules are on the Court's website.
For the purpose of hearing oral argument, the Court sits each month, except July. The clerk prepares the calendar of cases to be argued or submitted. The cases are assigned in rotation to the justices for the preparation of opinions, which are based on the decisions of the whole Court.
When a justice prepares an opinion, it is circulated for study to the other justices and, after discussion en banc, is either adopted or rejected by a majority. If a justice is unable to serve in a particular case, or is disqualified, a substitute judge may be designated by the Court to serve.

The Supreme Court has the duty of setting standards for the admission of attorneys to the practice of law in Georgia. In keeping with this obligation, the Office of Bar Admissions was established by the Supreme Court and given the responsibility of serving as the Administrative Office for the Board of Bar Examiners and the Board to Determine Fitness of Bar Applicants.
The Board to Determine Fitness of Bar Applicants is composed of ten members, six attorney and three non-attorney members and the designee of the chair of the Board of Bar Examiners. The Board to Determine Fitness of Bar Applicants investigates the backgrounds of those persons who desire to be admitted to the practice of law in Georgia and recommends to the Board of Bar Examiners only those applicants who possess "the character and moral fitness to practice law," which recommendation forms a part of the applicant's application for admission to the Bar examination.
The Board of Bar Examiners is composed of six members of the State Bar of Georgia, who are learned and experienced and of generally recognized ability and integrity, appointed by the Court for terms of six years each. The Board of Bar Examiners is responsible for the preparation and grading of the Georgia bar examination. This examination is administered twice each year.
Copies of the Rules Governing Admission to the Practice of Law may be obtained from the website of the Office of Bar Admissions.
The State Bar of Georgia was created pursuant to an order of the Supreme Court dated December 6, 1963. The State Bar of Georgia was created
- to foster among the members of the Bar the principles of duty and service to the public;
- to improve the administration of justice; and
- to advance the science of law.
The State Bar of Georgia was created as an administrative arm of the Court with the powers and duties prescribed in the order creating it. Information concerning the State Bar of Georgia may be obtained from its website or from its office at 104 Marietta St. NW, Suite 100, Atlanta, Georgia 30303.
The Judicial Qualifications Commission is vested with the power to discipline, remove, and cause involuntary retirement of judges, except that no removal or involuntary retirement shall occur except upon order of the Supreme Court after review. The Georgia Constitution of 1983 provides that any judge may be removed, suspended, or otherwise disciplined for willful misconduct in office, willful and persistent failure to perform the duties of office, habitual intemperance, conviction of a crime involving moral turpitude, or for conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice which brings the judicial office into disrepute and further provides that any judge may be retired for disability which constitutes a serious and likely permanent interference with the performance of the duties of office. It also provides that the Supreme Court shall adopt rules of implementation.
The Commission consists of a seven-member Investigative Panel and a separate three-member Hearing Panel. For information contact Ben Easterlin, Director, P.O. Box 2179, Covington, Georgia 30015-2179.
The Judicial Council of Georgia was established pursuant to Georgia Laws 1973 and came under the Supreme Court's auspices in 1978. The Judicial Council assists the Supreme Court in planning, policy, and administrative matters. The Council is composed of a member or members representing the Supreme Court, Court of Appeals, superior courts, state courts, probate courts, juvenile courts, magistrate courts, and municipal courts.
The Administrative Office of the Courts provides assistance to the Judicial Council and is responsible for studying the courts, assisting court personnel, and making recommendations for improvement of the judicial system. For more information contact the Administrative Office of the Courts, Suite 300, 244 Washington St., SW., Atlanta, Georgia 30334.
In response to the challenges presented by the perceived decline in lawyer professionalism, the Supreme Court of Georgia and the State Bar of Georgia embarked upon a long-range project to raise the professionalism aspirations of lawyers and judges in the state. In early 1989, the Georgia Supreme Court, acting through the State Bar of Georgia, established the Chief Justice's Commission on Professionalism. The Commission, the first such body of its kind in the country, has as its primary charge ensuring that the practice of law remains a high calling, enlisted in the service not only of the client, but the public good as well.
The activities of the Commission are as follows:
- working with continuing legal education sponsors to coordinate the production of professionalism courses and materials;
- developing in-house law firm training programs and judicial professionalism programs;
- coordinating the production of State Bar Journal columns and articles;
- developing a database of professionalism materials for CLE providers and other interested organizations, groups, and individuals;
- developing mentoring programs for both lawyers and law students, working with the American Law Institute, the Atlanta Jewish Federation, the Atlanta Bar Association, the Georgia Indigent Defense Council, and other interested organizations;
- serving as liaison to the Joint Commission on Alternative Dispute Resolution;
- planning the Annual Professionalism Convocation;
- producing videos for use by state and national CLE providers
- participating in American Bar Association activities concerning professionalism;
- assisting the State Bar Committee on Professionalism in accomplishing its goals; and
- such other activities as are developed by the Commission.
The Commission is chaired by the Chief Justice and has as members representatives of the judiciary, the practicing bar, the four ABA-approved law schools, and the public. The Commission's staff may be reached at the State Bar Offices.
In October of 1992, the Georgia Supreme Court created the Georgia Commission on Dispute Resolution to develop and oversee a comprehensive statewide system of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) to complement the existing system of justice. The Commission is charged with the following duties and responsibilities:
- to administer a statewide comprehensive ADR program;
- to oversee the development and ensure the quality of all court-annexed or court-referred ADR programs;
- to certify court programs;
- to develop guidelines for court-annexed or court-referred programs;
- to develop criteria for the training and qualifications of neutrals; and
- to establish standards of conduct for neutrals.
The Georgia Supreme Court also created the Georgia Office of Dispute Resolution to implement the policies of the Commission. The responsibilities of the Georgia Office of Dispute Resolution include the following:
- to serve as a resource for ADR education and research;
- to provide technical assistance to new and existing court-annexed or court-referred programs at no charge;
- to develop the capability of providing training to neutrals in courts throughout the state at no charge;
- to implement the Commission's policies regarding qualification of neutrals and quality of programs;
- to certify and decertify neutrals who will serve in court programs; and
- to collect statistics from court-annexed or court-referred programs in order to monitor the effectiveness of various programs throughout the state.
For more information about the Office of Dispute Resolution contact Tracy Johnson, Executive Director at 404-463-3808 or visit www.godr.org.
Under the Georgia Constitution of 1983, the judicial power of the state is vested in these classes of courts: magistrate courts, probate courts, juvenile courts, state courts, superior courts, Court of Appeals, and Supreme Court. Also, the General Assembly may authorize or establish municipal courts, and those municipal courts, county recorder's courts, civil courts, and administrative agencies in existence on June 30, 1983, may continue with the same jurisdiction until otherwise provided by law. Each county is to have at least one superior court, magistrate court, probate court, and where needed a state court and a juvenile court. In the absence of a state court or a juvenile court, the superior court exercises that jurisdiction.
See The Court's Jurisdiction.
The Court of Appeals was established by a constitutional amendment in 1906. Under the 1983 Constitution it is a court of review and exercises appellate and certiorari jurisdiction in all cases not reserved to the Supreme Court.
The fifteen judges of the Court sit in five divisions of three judges each for hearing and determining cases.
Court of Appeals judges are elected statewide on a nonpartisan basis for six year terms. If a vacancy occurs, it is filled by appointment of the Governor until the next general election. As to qualifications for judges of the Court of Appeals, the 1983 Constitution requires that they shall have been admitted to practice law for seven years and provides that the General Assembly may provide by law for additional qualifications, including a minimum residency requirement.
The superior courts are trial courts of general jurisdiction, handling both civil and criminal law actions. They have exclusive jurisdiction over trials in felony cases, except in the case of juvenile offenders as provided by law; in cases respecting title to land; in divorce cases; and in equity cases. Also, they have such appellate jurisdiction as may be provided by law.
The counties are divided into 49 judicial circuits, each of which has at least one judge. Some circuits are single county circuits and others are comprised of two or more counties. Sessions of court must be held in each county at least twice a year. The total number of superior court judges is 213.
Superior court judges are elected on a nonpartisan basis in circuit-wide elections for four-year terms. They must have been admitted to practice law for seven years and must reside in the geographical area in which they are selected to serve. Also, the General Assembly may provide by law for additional qualifications.
These are courts of county-wide jurisdiction. The total number of state courts judges is 129, and they are located in 71 counties. They have uniform jurisdiction as provided by law.
State court judges must have been admitted to practice law for seven years if elected or appointed after the year 2000 and five years if elected or appointed before the year 2000, and they must reside in the geographical area in which they are selected to serve. Also, the General Assembly may provide by law for additional qualifications.
Each county has a juvenile court. Most have separate juvenile court judges.
Juvenile courts have exclusive original jurisdiction over juvenile matters except where the act alleged is a capital offense. The juvenile courts have jurisdiction over many issues related to the best interests of the children of this state, including but not limited to dependency, termination of parental rights, delinquency, children in need of services, competency in delinquency or child in need of services cases, the Parental Notification Act, and emancipation.
Juvenile court judges must have been admitted to the practice of law for five years and must reside in the geographical area in which they are selected to serve. Also, the General Assembly may provide by law for additional qualifications.
Georgia's probate courts have varying responsibilities. All of the probate courts administer wills and estates, appoint and oversee guardians and conservators, and issue marriage and weapons-carry licenses. In addition, some of the courts adjudicate traffic offenses and some hear misdemeanor cases. Others handle vital records. Some probate court judges serve as their counties' Supervisor of Elections.
Each county has a probate court with one probate judge who is elected for a term of four years. Qualifications for this office vary. In larger counties, it is required that the probate judge be an attorney.
Under the 1983 Constitution, justice of the peace courts, small claims courts, and one county court became magistrate courts. These courts have uniform jurisdiction as provided by law. At present, this jurisdiction includes contract cases and personal property damage, injury, or conversion cases where the amount involved does not exceed a set amount. Also, in criminal cases they may issue warrants and sit as courts of inquiry, binding the accused over to a higher court or discharging him, and they may administer oaths, take affidavits, and perform marriages.
Magistrate court judges are elected for four year terms by the voters of their respective counties.
Cities and towns in Georgia establish municipal courts to handle traffic offenses and local ordinance violations, conduct preliminary hearings, issue warrants, and in some instances hear misdemeanor shoplifting and possession of marijuana cases. Municipal court judges are often appointed by the mayor, and some are elected. There are more than 350 municipal courts operating in Georgia.

Managing Your PCI Audit (Part 1)
Managing Your PCI Audit & Compliance Blog! By Michael Nelson – PCI Practice Manager
PCI DSS compliance has now become a household name for security and IT departments worldwide, potentially having significant impact on those organizations that store or process credit cards. According to the PCI Security Standards Council "All merchants, whether small or large, need to be PCI compliant."
While the security requirements are the same for all covered organizations, the method of proving compliance depends on the number and value of annual credit card transactions. For merchants processing more than 6 million transactions a year, this means an on-site audit by a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA). For more information on PCI DSS please visit https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org.
For many organizations the term "PCI Audit" seems to be shrouded in mystery. Having facilitated many PCI audits for large organizations, I have probably been asked every question imaginable in regards to PCI. What exactly is involved? What is my Cardholder Data Environment? How much information must I provide?
As an adviser I have always tried to impress upon my clients the need to understand and proactively manage the PCI Audit process, and in particular to be prepared for onsite interviews by the QSAs. Many of the staff members that the auditor will be interviewing (e.g. office PC users, call center operators, systems administrators) may view the auditor; either as an adversary, from whom as much information should be withheld as possible, or as a friend, to whom all information should be provided when requested. In fact, neither of these positions is appropriate and both can lead to trouble for the organization being audited.
Proactive PCI Audit management is the cornerstone to a successful audit process. While many businesses simply do not have the time, staff, or trained personnel to prepare for all aspects of a PCI audit, I recommend finding qualified external resources to help the organization down this path. It is important to remember that while most QSAs are reasonable and professional organizations they are not employees and maintain significantly different roles, responsibilities, and organizational insight.
Managing the PCI audit carefully will help reduce time, costs, and operational impacts to the organization. At a minimum audit management will refine the scope and keep answers to audit questions on point. Keys to a successful audit and meaningful results are to appropriately prepare staff, set expectations, and sharpen scope. Expert resources to manage the process can add significant benefit to the organization and potentially reduce the cost of compliance.
The PCI audit process consists of many areas, however we will be focusing on the "on-site Interview" portion. The first step in the onsite interview is preparation. Once you have chosen your QSA find out exactly when the auditor will be on site, what activities the auditor will be conducting, and what documentation they will require. Knowing all of this will help you to understand exactly what level of detail the auditor is looking for, as well as which team members will be asked to take part in onsite interviews. Make sure to schedule the auditor's on-site presence when there is the minimum impact on your business operations.
PCI audits may become less effective and minimally productive due to a lack of preparation on the client side. Inappropriate preparations may lead to a host of issues including the over exposure of information, withholding or attempts to hide information by well intended but ill advised staff, or as well as inaccurate and or inconsistent answers. Theses issues among others can cause significant problems and expense down the road for the organization under audit. Preparing each staff member before the onsite meeting is vital to a successful, efficient, and effective audit.
Some examples of staff interview preparation includes understanding exactly what is meant by "Cardholder Data Environment" and what this actually means to the organization. The organization and the auditor must agree on the scope prior to the commencement of the audit. Only information directly related to the CDE should be provided in interviews. Auditors should be expected to provide their interview questions for review beforehand, comply with an interview schedule, and should not interview additional staff members who may confuse the issues or provide inappropriate answers. It is the responsibility of the individual managing the audit process to ensure the interview is on topic, within scope, and with the appropriate staff.
My next blog I will cover actual questions that have been asked as well as the proper way to answer them. I will also dive deeper into the audit process. Until then please contact us here to learn more about how we can assist your organization to manage the compliance process.

Former celebrity photography Darryn Lyons has been declared Geelong's second directly elected mayor, after the calculation of preferences on Monday afternoon.
All cameras in the tally room were turned on an expectant Lyons, decked out in a purple suit and fluoro-pink shirt, as returning officer Eeon Macauley clicked the button that would deliver the final result.
"I'm told this is going to be a dramatic moment," Mr Macauley said.
It was a nerve-racking four minutes until the also-rans' names flashed up on a screen, closely followed by the name of the victorious candidate.
The flamboyant pub and club entrepreneur received almost 30 per cent of almost 130,000 formal votes. He won more than twice as many votes as the next-placed candidate, businesswoman Stephanie Asher.
After preferences, Lyons was still ahead by more than 10,000 votes.
Speaking to the media seconds after the announcement, an emotional Lyons dedicated the win to his mother, who has cancer.
"This is a vote for the people in Geelong for change, youth and energy," he said.
The former Celebrity Big Brother contestant said his first task as mayor would be to unite Geelong's councillors.
Lyons said although he had no magic wand that would fix the challenges faced by the Geelong area, including a string of major job losses, he would work hard to deliver results for the city.
"The harder the fight, the best I get," he said.

Farfalle Alfredo
Leftover cream cheese, store-cupboard pasta, bacon in the fridge and petits pois in the freezer… All adds up to a suitably Autumnal meal. Delish.
Spag Bol
Drat it – editing this as it didn't load last night. That + no camera battery = less than brilliant start.
We had Spag Bol and it was scrummy. Leftovers in the fridge, so suggestions welcome – not sure if lasagne will count as we've had it in the challenge before but with different ingredients. This requires some thought.
H despises celery, so I used peppers instead, and I'm generous with mushrooms because I've grown to like them. It's not real Spag Bol because we don't use chicken livers (as Delia recommends) but more so because we had it with farfalle (butterflies!). Still yum, though.
Cajun chicken pasta
In the finest tradition of this blog, we're a day late in starting. We meandered home from our holiday in Ruthin (North Wales, gorgeous, recommend a visit) via a stop in Llangollen (also lovely – we need to go back for a proper explore) and by the time we got home there was just about time for toast and then to bed.
We stayed in a fabulous boutique hotel that describes itself as a "restaurant with rooms" and doubles as an art gallery – Llinos Lanini was exhibiting while we stayed and her photographs were breath-taking. We were lucky enough to meet her, which was particularly brilliant as she told us where she was when she took H's favourite photograph from the exhibition (so we went there; it was just up the road) and talked to me about my favourite in the collection, which was taken in Bute Park!
We ate in the restaurant on our first evening, and the food certainly deserves the Michelin recommendation. Andrew had the soup followed by duck and was highly impressed, and I had the risotto followed by pigeon, which was incredible. We shared a side of green beans which were simply but beautifully scrumptious. Both of us had to admit defeat without clearing our plates because of the generous portions, and I was in awe of the couple that managed to fit in a dessert as well. The service was fantastic, but it was a little awkward that all the diners were elbow-to-elbow in the conservatory with an empty dining room out of sight of the road. It makes the restaurant look busier and more enticing for passers-by, but makes casual conversation more stilted.
Our booking included breakfast, and having feasted the night before we were looking forward to a magnificent repast. H's Eggs Benedict was delicious, but I couldn't finish the lukewarm beans or the sausage, which had clearly been kept warm for some time and wasn't the quality of pork or herbs that I'd been expecting. More disappointingly, and in complete contrast to the night before, the service was utterly perfunctory. I've stayed in B&Bs across the UK, including places as far afield as Manchester, Cambridge and Llandudno, where the owners have recommended local sights, activities and places to eat. Not so the case here – the co-proprietor only engaged with the guests for them to place their order, and busily cleared tables around us without uttering a word.
On Sunday we had a far better experience in terms of a much friendlier service, and my fruit salad was rather good, but H's full Welsh breakfast didn't really hit the mark. We shall certainly be going back to the area, but looking for a self-catering cottage.
Tonight we're back to cooking for ourselves, and we've started the renewed challenge with cajun chicken pasta. It's light and tasty, and distinctly reminiscent of green Thai chicken curry. Even halving the recipe this was generous and certainly something we'll be making again. Looking forward to having the leftovers for lunch tomorrow!
The spring onions work really well with the spice of the cajun and the medley of peppers, mushrooms and red onions in a lightly creamy sauce. This would probably work well with rice as well as linguine.
Cooking 101
Having committed to a 365 challenge, it irritated me a little that we didn't see it through. The 264 meals that we had made us look at cooking in a totally different way, and the outstanding 101 niggled – how much more would we have discovered? Also, abandoning the project meant we got a little lazy; we had over 200 meals we could pick from – why look for something new? Well, the answer turned out to be "because we miss the excitement". Now life is back on a more even keel we've had time to think about it, and we've agreed… The last meal in the challenge was September 29th 2011. On September 30th 2012, refreshed from a boutique holiday in North Wales, it's all back on!
That's all folks
101 meals shy of the challenge, life offline means that I'm throwing the towel in on this for now. Thank you for reading, commenting and enjoying (I hope). It was an adventure.
Spicy beef with a tomato salad
A BBC Good Food recipe, this is quick, tasty and cheap – what more could one want? Well, photos obviously. Damn.
Beans on toast
A British classic with H's inspired and scrumptious twist of an added dash of cumin and plenty of freshly grated black pepper, as well as the obligatory smudge of butter. With sausages and bacon nestled under the beans. Warming, comforting, simple. What more could you want?

Healthy Tips for Eating Out
By Coach Meredith
The beginning of the year is a busy time for setting goals whether that is personal or business related. Our schedules become consumed by important meetings and travel. This is where we need to learn we can have control over our health no matter how busy we become or how often we grab food on-the-go. Here are some tips to remember the next time you find yourself sitting down to a lunch meeting:
1. Play Drinking Games
Always fill your glass with water and have 8oz before every meal. I know you've heard it before, but staying hydrated has major benefits. This is also a great way to cut back on empty calories and sugar when you don't have control over your food options. Whenever there are complimentary water bottles, take advantage and grab one. This way you will have one to keep with you throughout the day and are able to refill.
2. Swap it Out
Make smart swaps to make the meal work for you. Get your protein steamed, grilled or baked instead of fried. Add something green and fresh to the mix instead of fries or chips (side salad or steamed veggies). A great compromise here is getting a large salad with your choice of lean protein on top. It's a win, win! Just watch out for those unnecessary added sugars with candied nuts or heavy cream-based dressings.
3. Plant Yourself
Try to squeeze in fruit and veggies whenever you have the opportunity. For example, take advantage of the free fruit offered at most hotels. You can sometimes grab an apple or banana from that random bowl at the front desk, too. Add veggies to your morning eggs or swap roasted carrots and broccoli instead of potato wedges at dinner. Try getting a fruit plate to start or end your meal. Fruit is a great option for our sweet tooth if we are craving that after dinner dessert. And, even if it's not on the menu, majority of restaurants can provide a side of steamed or grilled veggies, just ask.
4. Sauce on the Side
Ask for your dressing and sauce on the side. There are a lot of hidden calories, sodium, fat, and sugar in those condiments. When it's on the side, you can control how much you are consuming.
5.Sharing is Caring
If you're out for a business meeting, chances are there are several people to your group. Use that as an advantage. If you really want that BBQ chicken pizza, order it for the table. Share the meal, disperse the calories.
When eating with just one friend, get a salad or an appetizer and share the entree. Sharing a meal means enjoying variety and maintaining portion control. If you're frugal, you can also think of ordering one meal, splitting it in half, and saving the other half for one of tomorrow's meals. Boom. Portion control, money saved, and enjoyment from trying the dish you've been wanting to try.
Want more tips on how to enjoy yourself, but not go overboard while traveling, attending business meetings, or just eating habits in general? Shoot me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com

The WIZARD machining centre comprises two independent machines, one tenoning and one profiling. The machine can be controlled as an integrated working centre or as two independent machines by an industrial PC running specialised control software with an operator interacting with the machine via a touch screen panel. The capacity of the machine is about 30-40 one leaf windows per shift using the traditional technique of outside milling of sashes. The WIZARD 4L machine can produce about 60 knock-down windows using the left working spindle for milling from both sides.
The WIZARD machining centre is produced in two types:
The Wizard 4L model, with its unique configuration, enables pre-squaring production. The tenoning operation is carried out by spindles long enough to accommodate all types of tenoning tool. SOUKUP's unique tenoning cycle tenons and mills the outer shape of the timber end in a time effecient manner. The duality of the left and right profiling spindles ensures what is essential on this system - precision. As only one single machine operation is involved, the process is incredibly fast and precise. All units are driven by high-speed brushless motors and the long gear feeder guarantees smooth surface finishes.

Over 500 Healthcare, Patient, Employer, Veteran Groups Call on Congress to Repeal Independent Payment Advisory Board
Letter to Capitol Hill Says IPAB, Once Implemented, "Would Be Devastating to Patients" and Will Shift Costs to Consumers, Employers
WASHINGTON – Over 500 national and state-based organizations, representing virtually every state in the union, have signed a letter to Congress calling upon lawmakers to repeal the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB) provision of the Affordable Care Act, an entity they say would impair Medicare beneficiaries' access to care and remove public accountability from the Medicare decisionmaking process.
The letter reaches Congress at a time in which bipartisan IPAB repeal legislation in the U.S. House – the "Protecting Seniors' Access to Medicare Act" introduced by Representatives Phil Roe (R-TN) and Linda Sanchez (D-CA) – currently has 220 additional cosponsors, a majority of the House.
IPAB is a board, comprised of executive branch appointees, which would be charged with making cuts to Medicare expenditures if program spending reaches a certain level established by statute. Once the Secretary of Health and Human Services implements the IPAB recommendations, the action is not subject to administrative or judicial review. If IPAB members are not appointed by the President, or IPAB does not act to cut Medicare spending within the law's required timeframe, the board's powers are automatically shifted to the HHS Secretary.
As the letter to Congress put it, "An unelected board without adequate oversight or accountability would be taking actions historically reserved for the public's elected representatives in the U.S. House and Senate."
The letter points out that IPAB must achieve mandated savings within a one-year time period. This means that, instead of pursuing long-term reforms to strengthen Medicare, IPAB would be more likely to achieve its targets by cutting payments to healthcare providers.
"This would be devastating for patients, affecting access to care and innovative therapies," the groups wrote, pointing out that the number of physicians unable to accept new Medicare patients due to low reimbursement rates has been increasing. "IPAB-generated payment reductions would only increase the access difficulties faced by too many Medicare beneficiaries. Furthermore, payment reductions to Medicare providers will almost certainly result in a shifting of health costs to employers and consumers in the private sector."
The letter concludes, "We strongly support bringing greater cost-efficiency to the Medicare program. We also advocate continuing efforts to improve the quality of care delivered to Medicare beneficiaries. The Independent Payment Advisory Board will achieve neither of these objectives and will only weaken, not strengthen, a program critical to the health and well-being of current and future beneficiaries."
Among the more than 500 organizations signing the letter to Congress are the Healthcare Leadership Council, American Medical Association, Easter Seals, National Alliance on Mental Illness, National Association of Manufacturers, National Minority Quality Forum, Parkinson's Association, U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Vietnam Veterans of America.
Healthcare Leadership Council President Mary R. Grealy said, "The voices of this many organizations representing tens of millions of Americans, combined with a majority of the U.S. House of Representatives, send a clear signal that the IPAB approach to addressing Medicare's future is unworkable and unacceptable. We need to focus on bringing greater value and sustainability to Medicare, not arbitrarily swinging an ax that will do great harm to those who depend on this program."

Job interviews aren't going away. The workplace may shift from sweatshop-like co-located (like IBM enjoys) to Virtual Reality Headset-enabled virtual office (our personal favorite, just don't tell our boss), but you'll ultimately always going to have to interview the person that's going to work with you. Here we'll share the answers you should look for when conducting a job interview.
What we've found is that hiring is the fulcrum upon which a good business turns. There is no amount of training, motivational practices, team-building and incentive programs that will fix getting the wrong person. On the other hand, getting the rightest (that's a word right? Well, it should be!) can be so powerful that it may just revitalize your business or team.
So… Better not screw it up, right? But the dirty secret is… A lot of people never gave much thought to what they want to HEAR in a job interview. Interviewers build up a set of questions – especially dedicated interviewers even think hard about what questions are the most suitable for their area – but then mostly go through the motions.
Crucially, how many interviewers have through not just about the questions they want to ask, but the ANSWERS they want to hear?
Exactly. How do you know your perfect employee when you see him or her? Most of us – I've been guilty of this in the past too – never set a target, we just expect to sit at the table, fire our questions, and hope to be delighted.
What we at Distant Job have challenged ourselves to do – and we challenge you to do so as well – is: come up with your perfect answers. What does it look like when a prospective employee hits a homerun? What follows are our expectations. Let us know yours!
"Why Should I Hire You?"
In response to "Why Should I Hire You?", there are no magic words.
What you want is to have the candidate give a reply that expresses that they have researched and love the history and the culture of the company they are applying to.
Lots of people don't go past the company name and position. When employees say that they would be a good fit, that's just talk. When they explain WHY they would be a good fit, revealing knowledge of the company, that's a winner.
"What was a time in a past assignment where you seriously messed up and had to be reprimanded and/or corrected? How did you feel and what did you do about that reprimand?"
This is long one, but it's also one of our favorite interview questions, and a perfect replacement for the ambiguous, weak "What is your biggest weakness?" question. We explain why in this article.
What you're looking for here is ownership. A bad employee will look to shift the blame to this process or to that person; will complain about lack of information or resources. A mediocre employee will try to partially shift the blame.
Someone that completely owns a failure and proceeds to explain how she (and only she) should have acted to prevent it? I want that person on my team, and you should, too.
"What is a piece of work that you are proud about, and why?"
We admit to having stolen this one from Treehouse. It's a great question, because it lets us see what someone loves about their work – and indeed, IF someone loves their work.
Here, you want to gauge confidence and how that's balanced with a desire for growth. You want to see their eyes shine when they mention their work! But at the same time, it's an incredibly healthy sign if they say "…but, I would have liked to have gotten further with…."; "I'm still not satisfied with…" This shows desire to grow and learn!
Someone that reveals total detachment from previous work? That's a no-go. Someone that thinks their previous work is flawless and they are super-hot because of it? We'd shy away from that, as well.
Candidates you get from Distant Job are expertly headhunted and vetted – there are no losers on our team. But the questions you ask of them will ensure that they fit perfectly in your company. These were our favorites. What are yours, and what answers do you expect?

The devices that keep me connected, organised and productive when I'm out of the office are almost entirely Android in flavour. I currently use an Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone (overdue an upgrade, but more on that later) and a Google Nexus 7 tablet. My S3 will be 2 years old in January, and the Nexus is coming up to a year old. Until recently I had some apps on both devices, although with the Nexus having a larger screen, it is obviously better suited to some apps than the phone is. Recently my S3 dramatically slowed, so I reset it, and this time only installed communication and social media apps on it. It seems to run better now, with about 1Gb of space being used currently. The Nexus is taking the strain, with news/weather/travel apps residing there instead, as well as what office software is available.
Of course there is a downside to this, since the Nexus is WiFi only, and you will know from my previous posts that this is an issue where I live. But phone reception isn't that good either (only GPRS at home). Hopefully this will improve, and my trips to the local bus stop to get a good signal will become a thing of the past!
Regarding upgrades, the S3 is non-4G compatible, and stuck on Android 4.3 (Jelly Bean) with no prospect of an upgrade to 4.4, let alone 5.0! My service provider, O2, doesn't currently provide 4G in my area, but I've been impressed when I've seen it working on my wife's phone on visits to London, and it will arrive soon I hope! This makes an upgrade almost inevitable, and my 4 reasons for upgrading are (i) the age of the phone, (ii) its poor battery life, (iii) the lack of 4G, and (iv) the Android system. Currently I'm looking at the Sony Xperia Z3, which seems impressive, and which should tick all the boxes. But I will wait until January; there's some satisfaction in being able to use a smartphone intensively for 2 years!
My Nexus is still fine, and an OS upgrade to Android 5.0 (Lollypop) is due any day now. I'm sure it will continue to serve me well, including as my main device for blogging!
The main limitation of these devices for me, outside that which is a result of poor WiFi/phone data reception, is the lack of proper Microsoft Office compatible software. I wrote about this in the summer, when I found myself at a conference unable to create Office documents containing anything other than simple text. Having no confidence that a sufficiently powerful Android app will ever be available, I recently invested in a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 tablet as an upgrade for my 4.5 year old (and increasingly creaking) Samsung Netbook. Having this will ensure that I can always create and edit complex Office documents, as well as adding new functionality like being able to annotate lecture notes. Plus it is an amazing piece of kit! Expect more on this in a later post.
So in conclusion, my mobile computing future is likely to remain mainly Android based, but with the Microsoft tablet taking the strain for Office intensive tasks, like writing research papers and examination scripts.
