The statement copied below - calling for an end to the illegal use of the death penalty for drug offences was read out by Eka Iakobishvili (Human Rights analyst for the International Harm Reduction Association) as an NGO representative (via the Vienna NGO committee on drugs) at yesterday's pleanry session of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs.
Such a call should be relatively uncontroversial at a UN gathering - the General Assembly has called for a moratorium on all use of the death penalty, and the UNODC has recently (it should be noted - following concerted NGO pressure) made a clear statement opposing the use of the death penalty. In a 2010 paper by the previous Executive Director of the UNODC, Antonio Maria Costa, titled 'Drug control, crime prevention and criminal justice: a human rights perspective - Note by the Executive Director' (para 25/26) the UNODC position was laid out (bold emphasis added):
"The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights specifies that in countries which have not abolished the death penalty, the sentence of death may be imposed only for the "most serious crimes". The concept of "most serious crimes" is limited to those where it can be shown that there was an intention to kill which resulted in the loss of life. The weight of opinion indicates that drug offences (such as possession and trafficking) and those of a purely economic nature do not meet this threshold. Moreover, States that have abolished the death penalty are prohibited to extradite any person to another country where he or she might face capital punishment."
"Despite such prohibitions, a considerable number of the 47 retentionist States that continue to use capital punishment have carried out executions for drug offences in recent years. In some of these countries, drug offenders constitute a significant proportion of total executions As an entity of the United Nations system, UNODC advocates the abolition of the death penalty and calls upon Member States to follow international standards concerning prohibition of the death penalty for offences of a drug-related or purely economic nature.
However, as IHRA have demonstrated with their groundbreaking death penalty publications, the illegal use of the death penalty for drug offences remains widespread, with an estimated 1000+ such executions taking place annually, some even resulting from arrests made under UNODC funded enforcement projects.
The plenary statement (endorsed by Transform) as read:
Date: 24 March 2011
Agenda Item No. 7: World Situation with Regard to Drug Trafficking
"Thank you, Mr Chairman. This statement is made on behalf of:
- The International Harm Reduction Association
- The International Network of People Who Use Drugs
- Penal Reform International
- Human Rights Watch
- The International Drug Policy Consortium
- The German Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty
- The Open Society Foundations Drug Policy Programme
- Reprieve
- Transform Drug Policy Foundation
- The Quaker Council for European Affairs
- and 20 other non-governmental organisations
We are grateful for the opportunity to speak on this important agenda item.
We heard yesterday from UNODC of the seizures of illicit substances made in many parts of the world. While looking at the statistics on tonnes and kilos, we must also recognise the human face of such seizures.
We must consider the penalties that will be applied to those who are arrested and prosecuted. This is not to excuse criminality – but nor can we excuse the taking of human life for any crime.
The death penalty for drug offences is a violation of international law. This is clear. Yet 32 jurisdictions retain this excessive and cruel punishment. The International Harm Reduction Association has identified hundreds of executions annually for drug-related offences but believes that as many as one thousand people may be executed for drug offences each year when states that keep their death penalty statistics a secret are counted.
The justification for this is usually deterrence. This is a faulty argument that has been presented many times over, and for a range of crimes.
While nobody should be executed for any offence, the vast majority of those known to be sentenced to die for drugs are not kingpins or major traffickers. They are carriers. Very often involvement in this aspect of the drug trade is driven by poverty, drug dependence and a lack of options. To kill these people is cruel in the extreme.
Our call is brief. All States must cease the application of the death penalty for drug offences, and, indeed, for all offences, and immediately institute a moratorium to spare the lives of those on death row."

JPMorgan Chase's new healthcare unit has made its first investment, CNBC has learned exclusively.
The bank has agreed to invest $50 million in Vera Whole Health, a Seattle-based start-up that is pioneering a new, subscription-type model for employee healthcare.
Further, through the bank's Morgan Health unit — a new business unveiled in May after a joint venture with Amazon and Berkshire Hathaway folded — JPMorgan will begin offering Vera's services to its employees during benefits enrollment season this fall, the companies said.
Vera, founded in 2008, aims to improve outcomes for workers and reduce costs for companies by making primary care teams accountable for the health of employees. Companies pay a flat monthly fee per patient, and primary care doctors are tasked with coordinating all their users' care. The so-called advanced care model requires Vera to either operate or partner with clinics that work in a fundamentally different way than the prevailing system, according to Vera CEO Ryan Schmid.
"In a traditional model, providers are paid based on the volume of procedures; it's a highly transactional system which I think creates some perverse incentives," Schmid said in a recent interview. "In our care model, our teams are paid a salary plus bonus, and that bonus is tied specifically to their outcomes."
In fact, JPMorgan will be one of the first large corporate employers to partner with Vera, providing a real-world test for a paradigm shift that could tackle one of the thorniest issues facing the U.S.: Despite spending trillions of dollars on medicine, the health of Americans has been deteriorating in recent years.
While the use of Vera will be optional for JPMorgan employees, it provides a "higher level of care" that will likely be sought out once the benefits are appreciated, said Morgan Health CEO Dan Mendelson.
A higher standard
The start-up's approach involves a more holistic view of an employee's health than merely focusing on physical ailments; higher patient engagement and an emphasis on mental well-being is more likely to detect diseases or even prevent them in some cases, he said.
"We want to know that our employees are getting screened for cancer," Mendelson said. "We want to know that our employees are having wellness visits, that if they have high cholesterol they're actually taking their medicine. That is all about setting up a model where you have a group that is responsible."
Since it's not a simple model to execute, only employees in select regions will have access to Vera this year, Mendelson said.
Vera operates primary care centers in ten states; it also partners with Central Ohio Primary Care, the biggest U.S. independent doctor-owned primary care group. JPMorgan runs a technology hub in Columbus with several thousand employees, making that region a likely candidate for the service.
The advanced care model is one that is more common to Medicare providers but has yet to gain traction in employer-sponsored programs, Schmid said.
The partnership came about through a relationship between the private equity firm Clayton Dubilier & Rice and Morgan Health, the companies said. Clayton recently took a majority stake in Vera that valued the company at $400 million.
"This hasn't been done before at this scale, what we're doing with Vera in partnership with JPMorgan and Central Ohio Primary Care to have a model focused on improving outcomes and lowering costs for the under-65 population," said Ravi Sachdev, a Clayton Dubilier partner and former JPMorgan healthcare banker.
"We couldn't pioneer that without somebody like JPMorgan saying, 'This is really important for us, we want to be part of the solution'," Sachdev said.

On the Symfony Finland site they have a post that's celebrating the 5th birthday of Symfony2 and mentions that the latest version, Symfony 3.2, is continuing the legacy and trends the Symfony 2.x releases started.
Late in 2015 the Symfony project as a whole celebrated it's tenth anniversary. Another significant milestone is reached in July 2016 as Symfony2, the second major iteration celebrates it's fifth anniversary. Five years is a long time in IT, but even more so in web development.[...] Symfony2 was a major rewrite that turned the previous monolithic framework into PHP components as well as a framework to tie these into a coherent framework for developers to build their applications on. Since that Symfony3 was released and was more of an evolutionary release.
He looks back at Symfony2 in hindsight and features/functionality it brought to the table that made major impacts in the PHP ecosystem. This includes things like heavy use of dependency injection, bundles and a standardized interface on HTTP requests and responses. He ends the post looking at some of the new features that are coming with Symfony 3.2, listing out several links back to Symfony's own blog posts with more details on each.

Jumping ship from a career as a systems admin to that of an IT consultant can be stressful but ultimately rewarding. Some Redmond readers tell their tales of wonder and woe.
The artificial panic caused by Y2K, coupled with the short rise and long fall of the dot com era, has rendered suspect the true value of consultants' services. Despite the hard times, many IT professionals seem undeterred, willingly making the jump to consulting.
Have you considered leaving the comfortable confines of your cubicle job for the wild and wooly world of consulting, only to have your cold feet leave you frozen in place? Perhaps the following tales of adventure will give you the proper inspiration, or at least perspective, as you contemplate the jump.
Vishnu Benkert, now a consultant with Weston Technology Solutions in Bend, Ore., jumped both jobs and cities after nine years as a systems administrator.
"I've found that [consulting] is a much better fit for me as I get bored easily and enjoy constant challenges. With most companies, you have a fairly static environment with some yearly capital available for projects. Otherwise, you are performing generally mundane tasks with only the occasional brain-wrenching troubleshooting," Benkert says.
The Challenge Of Staying Challenged The allure of constant challenge is a theme that runs through most of our reader responses. A major reason for that is once a company's network environment is up and running, there's not much left for an administrator to do. And with not much left to do, most find themselves filling their days with mundane tag-up meetings and weekly reports.
John Eberhardt, a self-employed consultant with Wise Enterprise Group LLC, tells us how he eventually managed to work his way out of a systems administrator job.
"After several years of good equipment funding, everything that was wrong was gone. It got to a point where you could hear a pin drop on the network. There were no [network] collisions, no layer three switches and no AppleTalk chatter, which meant no network troubles at all," Eberhardt says.
When he first started, his NT domain had 13 backup controllers and a separate domain for every department, Eberhardt recalls. Once the domain was flattened and nearly all the BDCs eliminated, log-ins became "lightning fast," all the fires went out and things got very boring, very fast. And with all the fires extinguished, feelings of job vulnerability crept in.
"Then, it just boiled down to me documenting everything I could, which is a great way for my boss to replace me with someone cheaper," Eberhardt says.
In addition to boredom, politics, aging technology and downsizing were all themes for wanting to escape the old job, according to most respondents. But once you get out and take the plunge, what is life like for a consultant, especially one that's living largely on the road?
Kent Draper, an experienced independent contractor who has worked in three locations over the past 12 months, describes an existence that can be a nomadic and sometimes spartan.
"Be prepared to go where the work is, live in a cheap studio apartment and eat out of a can," he warns.
10 Unwritten Rules of Consulting (Written Down)
Every industry has its list of unwritten rules and consulting is no different. Here are 10 rules respondents wanted to share.
To decide if you can afford to become a consultant, you have to do the math, Draper advises. For instance, will the work you find allow you to still pay your mortgage, travel to and from home, pay for lawn services and put some money in your pocket at the end of the month? A contract in New York or Washington D.C. may pay a great deal more than a similar contract in the Midwest, but you may find yourself paying $1,500 to $2,000 for housing in a neighborhood where your car will get broken into on a regular basis, he says.
Considering Entrepreneurship Paul Schnackenburg, who owns his own consulting company in Queensland, Australia, describes a very different experience in finding work close to home. "I haven't had to do any marketing because out here in the sticks, word of mouth is the best marketing," he says.
But owning your own shop is very different than working for a larger company. Not only must you do the consulting, you must also do sales, accounting and financing, as well as head up the marketing department in your ever-shrinking spare time. While Schnackenburg admits that his bookkeeping skills are serviceable, for instance, he realizes not everyone has the ability to handle several very different disciplines.
Before Mike Bell joined Compu-Tech Inc., a large company in East Wenatchee, Wash., he first tried self-employment and soon discovered the challenges of being a one-man band.
"While I was on the self-employed track, about 15 percent to 20 percent of my billable day could be eaten up by things like marketing and accounting. Between tax forms, state revenue statements, brochure creation, estimates and pre-hire consultations, I was lucky that any of my hours were billable," he says.
Ah yes, billable hours. Keeping them up is critically important for any consultant, regardless of whether he or she works for themselves or for a larger company. Because billable time is the bread and butter of consulting, any amount of learning, writing and attending conferences only pays off if you can keep the billable time to a maximum.
But after all the billable hours are counted and all the network problems are resolved, how are our nascent consultants answering the real question: How's the money? Few, it seems, have had to take a pay cut.
"I remember back in Y2K when you could name your price. In a way, it's still the same. If your customers trust you, you can pretty much charge whatever you want," Bell says.
People with small consultancies say they find it comforting to be close to the budget, where the monthly numbers are passed around freely. Those with the highest billable hours often wear that distinction like a badge of honor. But those who work in larger organizations say their job responsibilities often position them far away from any budgetary decisions.
Val Clark, who left a technician's job with large banking institution for an outsourced financial consulting and information technology firm, waxes philosophical on the dichotomy between improving the company's internal infrastructure and keeping up his billable hours.
"I do both internal support for my company and external support for the customers. I could spend a week on something internally that does great things for the company, but none of it brings in money directly. So I have to juggle improving the internal stuff with keeping my billable time as high as possible," Clark says.
The Author's Story: No Regrets
While I have been happily employed as a Windows systems administrator for nearly 10 years, I loved my old job with a major defense contractor. When I started there the company had just converted from an old Novell-based network to a more modern (at the time) Microsoft Windows NT-based network.
I saw the company's IT presence grow from a break-fix mentality to a mature, process-driven engineering environment where risks were identified and mitigated prior to implementation. The IT organization started demanding a requirements spec prior to the change control board approval of any updates. I also watched the network environment grow from a mostly stable one based on innovation, to a very stable one based on technology that was risk averse.
Over that time, however, I also saw more exciting work happening elsewhere.
Managing a mature network that rarely goes down can mean more sleep and a rested body, but it may also give rise to a restless soul. There's a certain maverick IT spirit in me that wishes for at least a little havoc to be reigning in the network.
So, this July, I made the jump. I moved from an 80,000 person company to 3t Systems Inc., an IT consultancy based in the Rocky Mountain region with just 200 people. The company specializes in Windows, Citrix and VMware-based technologies.
It's been a good jump for me. I have found the work to be both challenging and rewarding. In my first few weeks I've already resuscitated a pair of dying domain controllers, fixed a critical printing issue for a multi-national Citrix farm and authored a hospital's Active Directory disaster recovery plans.
I believe our customers recognize the true value we provide. -- G.S.
Tough Love Despite some of their trepidations, respondents largely have positive things to say about making the jump. They cite a steady flow of new challenges and the lack of a smothering bureaucracy.
"I have found that consulting offers a new challenge every day, vastly different network environments and a variety of personalities," says Benkert of his experience. "If one company isn't upgrading systems or putting in a new solution, there's bound to be another one that is."
Asked what the most exciting part of his job was, Clark cites the complete absence of bureaucracy and environments where customers just want to see the work done. "That, along with client satisfaction -- I love engaging with the client, giving them solutions they can use, and having them say, 'Man, this guy's great!'"
Some miss the perks and benefits offered by their old jobs, but believe they are largely canceled out by the advantages.
"I miss the medical, 401(k), retirement benefits and knowing I will get a true annual salary rather than an hourly rate for an undetermined amount of time," Draper says. "But I don't miss a stagnant working environment and the office politics. I have improved my skills by working with a variety of good people in different environments. Change is good."
Microsoft this week announced the general availability of two new security solutions designed to help organizations achieve and manage zero trust environments.
Microsoft is vacating its non-voting seat on OpenAI's board "effective immediately," reported Financial Times on Wednesday.
Despite knowing better, nearly one in four IT security pros admit to using SaaS applications that haven't been approved by their organization.
Microsoft on Tuesday released a total of 143 security patches -- 139 for its own products, and four for third-party solutions.
Now that we have our data we want excluded labeled correctly, it's time to create a coordinating policy.

The Beaver Trilogy
Caught a rerun of an episode of This American Life on reruns the other day. The first segment is about a movie I'd never heard about before, The Beaver Trilogy. I don't want to spoil it too much (the Wikipedia page contains spoilers as well) but the first part of the film features documentary footage of a kid from Beaver, Utah doing impressions and putting on a talent show. The second and third parts are recreations of that footage featuring, well, just listen to the story or watch the first two parts of the movie for yourself (one, two). (thx, @eventi)

No business is perfect, but when you are preparing your business to be sold, it is imperative that you lead with your strengths. That's why it is important to work with a business broker or M&A advisor to identify, catalog and work to remedy any weaknesses. When presenting your business to prospective buyers, focus on your key selling points first and what makes you really stand out from the crowd. You want to sell a prospective buyer on the value of your business and its long-term potential before addressing any shortcomings or areas that need to be improved.
Most business owners who are selling a business are doing so for the first time. If you've never sold a business before then there are many mistakes and traps that can befall you. Selling a business is typically not a fast and easy process, but can instead take many months or even years.
Working with a business broker is one way to ensure that the process goes smoothly, but there are other steps that you can take to help ensure that your business sells. At the top of the list of steps business owners can take to help their business sell is to maintain normal operations. Again, it is very unlikely that your business will sell as soon as it hits the market. To protect the value of your business and to avoid financial trouble, you have to maintain normal business operations throughout the sales process.
The next key step to take is to get your business ready. It likely took years, or even decades, to get your business to where it is today. You shouldn't expect that preparing your business to be placed on the market should be an overnight process. One of the best ways to properly present your business is to inspect every aspect of your business and its operations. In this way, you'll discover what areas need work and what strengths are best to promote.
Brokerage professionals know where the competitive advantages of businesses reside and have an understanding of what buyers really want. An incorrectly priced business can scare away otherwise excellent potential buyers. The same holds true for poorly organized paperwork and financial records. In short, the preparation you make now to sell your business later can be invaluable for achieving the results you seek.
At the end of the day, you must remember that selling your business is a financial transaction. Like all kinds of sales, you must understand not only what the buyer needs but what they want as well. Not every business is right for every buyer.

Botanical Name: Acer saccharum nigrum
Family: Sapindaceae
Genus: Acer
Species: A. nigrum
Kingdom: Plantae
Order: Sapindales
Synonyms: A. nigrum. Michx.f.
Common Name: Black Maple
Habitat : Acer saccharum nigrum is native to Eastern N. America – Quebec to Alabama, west to South Dakota and Arkansas. It grows on rich calcareous or alluvial woods. Found in a variety of soil types, near streams, rivers and in rich woodlands, usually below 750 metres but up to 1650 metres in the south of its range.
Acer saccharum nigrum is a deciduous Tree growing to 25 m (82ft 0in) at a slow rate. Leaves are simple, opposite, often 4 inches or more long and fully as wide, from 3 to 5 shallow lobes with wide-spaced coarse teeth, dark green in color above, paler below; the clefts are rounded at the base. Leaf edge is smooth between the points. The leaf stalk (petiole) is typically greater in length than the leaf blade.
Twigs are slender, shining, and warmly brown, the color of maple sugar. The current year's twig is identical to sugar maple, but the older sections of twigs often have a waxy coating that may peel in strips from the twig.
Winter buds are conical, sharp-pointed, and brown in color, the terminal buds much larger than the lateral buds.
Barks of young trees, dark gray in color, close, smooth, and firm, becoming furrowed into long irregular plates lifting along one edge.
It is in flower in April, and the seeds ripen in October. The flowers are monoecious (individual flowers are either male or female, but both sexes can be found on the same plant)
Bloom Color: Green. Main Bloom Time: Early spring, Late spring, Mid spring. Form: Oval, Rounded.
Fruit – maple keys (samaras), in short clusters, ripening in September. Samaras are paired with the seeds joining each other in a straight line, but the wings are separated by about 60 degrees.
Outstanding features – rounded cleft between lobes of leaves; leaf blade broad and lateral lobes often droop; sharp-pointed, brown buds; brown twig with waxy coating on older sections of the twig.
Landscape Uses:Specimen, Street tree. Of easy cultivation, it prefers a good moist well-drained soil but succeeds on most soils. Chlorosis can often develop as a result of iron deficiency when the plants are grown in alkaline soils, but in general maples are not fussy as to soil pH. Grows well in heavy clay soils. Trees need full light and a lot of space. Plants are hardy to about -45°c when fully dormant. This species is not a great success in Britain, though it does better than once thought. It grows well in Cornwall. Slow growing when young. Plants produce prodigious root growth but very little top growth in first year from seed. Trees grow rapidly for their first 25 years in the wild, but then slow down and only occasionally surviving for more than 200 years. A very ornamental tree but a bad companion plant, inhibiting the growth of nearby plants. This species is commercially exploited in America for its sap. Along with A. saccharum and the sub-species A. s. grandidentatum it is the major source of maple syrup. There are some named varieties. The sap can be tapped within 10 – 15 years from seed but it does not flow so well in areas with mild winters. Special Features:North American native, Inconspicuous flowers or blooms.
Seed – best sown as soon as it is ripe in a cold frame, it usually germinates in the following spring. A lot of the seed is non-viable, it is best to cut a few open to see if there is an embryo. An average of 95% germination can be achieved from viable seed. Pre-soak stored seed for 24 hours and then stratify for 2 – 4 months at 1 – 8°c. It can be slow to germinate, sometimes taking two years. The seed can be harvested 'green' (when it has fully developed but before it has dried and produced any germination inhibitors) and sown immediately. It should germinate in late winter. If the seed is harvested too soon it will produce very weak plants or no plants at all. When large enough to handle, prick the seedlings out into individual pots and grow them on until they are 20cm or more tall before planting them out in their permanent positions. Layering, which takes about 12 months, is successful with most species in this genus. Cuttings of young shoots in June or July. The cuttings should have 2 – 3 pairs of leaves, plus one pair of buds at the base. Remove a very thin slice of bark at the base of the cutting, rooting is improved if a rooting hormone is used. The rooted cuttings must show new growth during the summer before being potted up otherwise they are unlikely to survive the winter.
Edible Uses:
Edible Parts: Inner bark; Sap; Seed.
The sap contains reasonable quantities of sugar and can be used as a drink or concentrated into a syrup by boiling off the water. The syrup is used as a sweetener on many foods. The sap can be harvested in late winter or early spring, the flow is best on a warm sunny day after a frost. Trees on southern slopes in sandy soils give the best yields. It is best to make a hole about 7cm deep and about 1.3 metres above the ground. Yields of 40 – 100 litres per tree can be obtained. The best sap production comes from cold-winter areas with continental climates. Seed – boiled then roasted. The seed is about 6mm long and is produced in small clusters. Inner bark – cooked. It is dried, ground into a powder and then used as a thickening in soups etc or mixed with cereals when making bread.
Medicinal Uses : A decoction of the inner bark has been used in the treatment of diarrhoea.
Other Uses:
Fuel; Preservative; Wood.
The leaves are packed around apples, rootcrops etc to help preserve them[18, 20]. Wood – close grained, tough, hard, heavy. Used for furniture, ship building, etc. It is a good fuel.

Setup Examples: Docker on AWS Linux VM
In this walkthrough we will setup RavenDB using Docker on an AWS EC2 t2.micro virtual machine running Ubuntu 16.04.
We will go through the necessary steps that are required for RavenDB to run securely including how to configure RavenDB with the correct IP addresses and ports.
It's recommended to read the Setup Wizard section where you can find a detailed explanation about the RavenDB setup process.
Create the VM
Access the EC2 Dashboard, and click on Launch Instance.
Select your operating system. In our example we choose "Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS (HVM), SSD Volume Type".
Select the machine type. We choose the t2.micro with 1 core and 1 GB of memory.
We stick with the basic default settings of the machine and configure just the minimal requirements for RavenDB. You would probably want to go over the entire set of options and customize your VM.
Security Concerns
The following settings are fine if you just want to experiment with RavenDB, however when security is needed you should set proper firewall rules and restrict access by IP. Please visit the AWS security documentation for more information about securing your VM.
Elastic IP address
By default, in AWS, an instance is assigned an IP addresses through DHCP. When the DHCP lease expires, or you restart the instance, this IP is released back to the pool and you will have to re-configure the RavenDB IP address. To solve this problem, use an Elastic IP address which doesn't change, and can even be dynamically re-assigned to other instances as you wish.
Let's open ports 8080 and 38888 for use by RavenDB. You may choose other port numbers off course and restrict access by IP. RavenDB will use port 8080 for HTTPS requests and port 38888 for TCP connections. We allow all incoming traffic on these ports by using 0.0.0.0.
Review your settings and launch the VM.
You will have to download a key pair which will be used later to connect to the machine using ssh.
Wait a couple minutes for the machine to initialize and click connect.
Follow the instructions and connect to the new machine using ssh.
ssh -i "RavenDBUbuntuVMKeyPair.pem" firstname.lastname@example.com
Configure the VM
Let's update the OS and install Docker. In Ubuntu it looks something like this:
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y docker-ce
Run the following command to create a new RavenDB container. For more information visit the Docker documentation section.
sudo docker run -d --name raven4 -p 8080:8080 -p 38888:38888 ravendb/ravendb
Use this command to view the status of your containers
sudo docker ps
With the following command, you can view the full details of the container. Notice the IPAddress field (e.g. 172.17.0.2). This is the private IP address that RavenDB binds to inside the container. You will use this address later in the wizard.
sudo docker inspect raven4
You can connect to the container using
sudo docker exec -it raven4 bash
And then you can connect to the RavenDB CLI using:
./rvn admin-channel
Run the RavenDB Setup Wizard
You have a few choices on how to run the RavenDB server. We will use the Setup Wizard, but you can also configure things manually.
RavenDB is running and you can access it from your (local) browser using the VM's Public DNS (e.g. http://ec2-54-200-27-219.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com:8080).
Accept the agreement and choose the setup type you want to do. In the example we choose to setup securely with a Let's Encrypt certificate. You will need to claim your domain, read more here.
When you reach the point where you have to enter the IP addresses, you can go to the EC2 management console and check the machine's public IP address.
Back in the wizard, enter the private IP address RavenDB binds to (e.g. 172.17.0.2) in the "IP Address / Hostname" field.
Check the External IP box and enter the public IP address of the VM (e.g. 126.96.36.199). Make sure to enter the ports you exposed in the docker run command in the "External Port" fields (8080 and 38888 in our example).
Start the installation.
If you encounter errors during the process, please visit the FAQ section.
When the setup is finished, you will receive a configuration ZIP file which contains an admin client certificate which will allow you to connect using the browser. Keep the file safe.
Restart the server.
Access the Studio
If everything went well, you should be redirected to the studio and Chrome should let you choose the client certificate to use (the one which was just created).
Some environments don't allow to set the client certificate automatically in the setup wizard so if you are not redirected to the Studio, and you get an authentication error, please close all instances of the browser and install the admin client certificate manually.
Now you can access the Studio, open the browser and enter your new domain (e.g. https://a.docker.development.run).
Chrome will let you select the certificate.
Access the certificate view to see both the loaded server certificate and the admin client certificate. Make sure to read the security section for better understanding of certificates and security issues.
Congratulations, you have a secure RavenDB server running on Docker on a simple EC2 machine. Have fun with it!
Connecting a few servers in a cluster is easy. Follow these instructions to construct a cluster during setup.

Community and environmental organizations lodged a formal protest against the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources's recent permit for a coal export terminal in the already polluted Plaquemines Parish corridor.
In a letter sent to LDNR Secretary Stephen Chustz, the organizations called for reconsideration of the coastal use permit granted this month, charging that the RAM coal terminal would violate laws created to ensure that the state's plan for coastal restoration plan is carried out.
The letter charged that "because LDNR did not adequately analyze alternative sites, LDNR cannot assess whether there are feasible and praticable alternative locations, methods and practices for use that are in compliance with the modified standard under the Coastal Use Permit regulations."
The letter also argued that the RAM terminal conflicts with Louisiana's Comprehensive Master Plan for coastal restoration. The terminal "will severely impact wetlands and the $300 million Myrtle Grove with Dedicated Dredging Ecosystem Restoration Project…," the letter said. (more…)

The Romans were based around Battle at Beauport from 43AD until 400AD. They built a bath house for the troops guarding the Iron Workings (Bloomeries) in the area.
Battle was founded on the site of the Battle of Hastings in 1066. The name comes from the Rape of Haestingas (one of the six major divisions of the land of the South Saxons) in which the battle was fought.
St Mary's Church was built by Abbot Ralph at the beginning of the 12th century and contains good glass and many splendid monuments and brasses.
A new parish, Netherfield, was formed from the Battle parish in 1862.
The town grew around Battle Abbey, which was constructed between 1070-1094 by William the Conqueror, as a penance ordered by the Pope for the loss of life occurring in the battle.
The 14th century gatehouse, built by Abbot Retlynge, has dominated the high street for over 500 years.
Of the two windmills on Caldbec Hill only the Kings Head mill survives, now a private residence.

Town Hall Shows Unity, Community Support
James Martin is on temporary total disability because of the time he spent working at the Fuyao Glass plant in Moraine, Ohio. He suffers from diminished lung capacity that, according to his doctor, was caused by working with isocyanate glues and primers, powerful chemicals which are known to cause asthma and other breathing problems.
Martin's life has been drastically changed by the fast-growing Chinese company's inattention to worker health and safety. He knows he would likely still be working if he was represented by the UAW.

Browse through the products under this category for all your SATA 3Gb/s HDD needs. If you are eager to tune up your PC for performance and storage capacity, the replacement of system hardware is the surest way to go. The upgrade to a SATA 3Gbps will actually help you squeeze big performance gains from your system.
The SATA 3Gbps is representative of the second revision of SATA technology that has transfer rates of 3Gbps and can attain a bandwidth throughput of 300MB/s. The 3Gbps hard drives are compatible with the variations of SATA – backward compatible with SATA 1.5 Gb/s and forward compatible with SATA-III.
The big move has been to solid-state drives (SSD) to improve performance. If you've not migrated to an SSD, you are missing out and have not experienced responsiveness. Apps launch faster, Windows boots and file transfers happen faster with SSDs.
With prices having dipped to about $1/GB, you have no reason not to get a SATA 3Gb/s drive to optimize performance. If you have the SATA 3Gbs port, you have no reason not to update to higher-performance hard drive disks. SATA drives are generally high capacity and low cost which gives a good value in terms of low cost per gigabyte of storage.
The most common SATA 3Gb s HDD is the 7.2K SATA but there are many other speed offerings right from 5.4K to 10K RPM. These hard drives are best suited for data storage, home users, and backups. The best way of measuring speed is through inputs outputs per second (IOPS) which defines data throughput – the actual read speed and write speed. The 7.2K SATA 3Gb/s drive will operate at about 80 IOPS. SSDs with SATA ports/connectors have markedly higher speeds and can achieve anything between 4,600 and 75,000 IOPS depending on the type.
You can get a wide range of storage capacities for the SATA 3Gbps HDDs right from 500GB and reaching the 8TB mark. We recommend storage capacities between 1 and 3TB since they offer good value for cost and capacity. That said, we have the following options: 1TB-7.2K RPM, 2TB-7.2K RPM, 3TB-7.2K RPM, 4TB-7.2K RPM that are real value for money as well as lower capacity SATA drives for home users and backups such as 300GB-10K RPM, and 750GB-7.2K RPM.
The reliability of SATA is not comparable to that of SAS drives that are designed for high demanding applications. SATA 3Gb/s HDDs are not designed for use in servers and other high demanding applications where high availability and speed requirements are a top priority. These drives are best suited for lower-level demands such as backups and for desktop PCs for home use. The mean time before failure (MTBF) for SATA drives is about 700,000 hours compared to 1.2 million hours for SAS hard drives.
Another outstanding feature is that of power consumption whereby SATA 3 Gb/s drives are power rated at 10 to 12 watts for normal operating conditions and consume 4 to 6 watts of power when idle.
We have SATA-II-rated cables of all lengths up to 1 meter in length. The cables are coupled with SATA connectors with the typical 7 pins for data and 15 pins for power. Check on all other SATA technology including SATA controllers, SATA connectors, and SATA adapters.
You will be courting disaster if SATA 3Gb s HDDs are used for high I/O applications and mission-critical websites. Performance issues, downtime, data corruption, and data loss are some of the challenges you may encounter. Talk to us and we can match you with the right SATA 3gbps hard drive disks to meet your speed and performance needs. SATA 3Gb/s hard drives are the best choice for cheap servers and home use.

Davis Concert Hall (UAF)
Charles Davis Concert Hall
Fairbanks Campus
Description: 1708 Tanana Loop
The 1,100-seat concert hall in the Fine Arts Complex was completed in 1974 and dedicated to Charles Davis Nov. 4, 1984. It has acoustical properties acknowledged to be among the finest in the Northwest. For the inaugural concert the Fairbanks Symphony Orchestra performed Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, with cannons from Fort Wainwright set off in the parking lot for the finale.
The Charles Davis Concert Hall is home to the Fairbanks Symphony Orchestra and used by the music department, the Fairbanks Summer Arts Festival, the Festival of Native Arts and others.
The three-manual, 66-stop, 42-rank, Gress-Miles pipe organ specially designed for the facility was installed in June 1982. Although only one rack of zinc and poplar pipes is visible to the audience, the organ has more than 35 racks with more than 1,900 pipes and weighs a total of 15,000 pounds.
In 2002, an $8 million revitalization began on the concert hall and the Fine Arts Complex, including correction of code violations, replacement of heating and ventilation systems for the music department wing and lighting improvements in the concert hall. Renovations were completed in May 2003.

Tobacco workers face many trials, including widespread health concerns, debt bondage, price collusion by tobacco companies, and child labor.
During visits to more than thirty tobacco farms in Malawi, Tanzania, Kenya, India, Bolivia and Argentina in 1997-2011, Marty Otañez, assistant professor at the University of Colorado, Denver, witnessed activities employed by the tobacco industry that obstruct tobacco control and increase economic marginalization. Many kids and adults on tobacco farms wake up and go to sleep hungry.
Tobacco does not provide a sustainable livelihood for families in many countries, as it has caused widespread health concerns, debt bondage, high input costs, high labor costs (leading to child labor), and declining profitability for individuals who grow tobacco every year. In Malawi, tobacco companies have been taking advantage of credit opportunities by selling agricultural chemicals and other inputs at above-market rates on loan. The companies, through these loan arrangements, then trap farmers into a cycle of debt.
Tobacco producers and their families suffer from nutritional deficiencies as tobacco, instead of food, occupies scarce land. Exposure to tobacco dust among family members that are forced to store tobacco leaves inside their homes contributes to extreme coughing and other negative respiratory effects.
When adults and children cut and bundle tobacco leaves they are put at a risk of absorbing pesticides and/or nicotine from the tobacco leaves through their skin. Nicotine poisoning is also called Green tobacco sickness, and can cause nausea, vomiting, headaches, dizziness, difficulty breathing, and fluctuations in blood pressure or heart rate. Some workers are given the task of applying pesticide chemicals with their bare hands, and this exposure to toxic agricultural chemicals intensifies the poor health of tobacco families..
In Malawi, farm owners and tobacco companies threaten tobacco workers with dismissal if they join a union, and tobacco companies are unwilling to work with unions on bargaining agreements. These threats weaken the power and voice of tobacco workers, and keep them from demanding the working conditions and prices that they need.
Tobacco companies collude over prices and downgrade (assign a lower quality to) leaf, thereby forcing farmers to accept a lower price for their leaf. With uncertain and falling leaf prices benefiting the corporate bottom-line, many farmers receive only one dollar or less for every kilogram of leaf, which doesn't come close to covering production costs. Low prices severely limits a farmer's ability to break free from the cycle of debt servitude so that he can achieve economic security and food sovereignty.

We the undersigned watch with horror yet another ruthless and criminal Israeli assault on the defenceless people of the Gaza Strip. The assassination of the Hamas' military commander, Ahmad al-Jabari, by Israel was intended to disrupt any chance for a permanent cease fire between the two sides and caused the current cycle of violence. For the last five years al-Jabari had been responsible for limiting rocket attacks on Israel.
The inaction of the Western governments is further proof of their indifference to their electorates' wish to stop Israel from perpetrating yet another massacre against the Palestinian people.
We call upon our governments, which have stood aloof and indifferent, in the face of Palestine's dispossession and colonization since 1948 to take immediate and effective action. No other people in the world has been subjected, for more than sixty years, to such relentless acts of collective punishment and military brutality as have the Palestinian people.
We call for the removal of the blockade on the Gaza Strip, the free movement of people and goods in and out of the region and a total cessation of lethal attack from the air, land and sea, against a helpless civilian population in one of the most densely-populated areas in the world.
The world cannot stand by when Palestine is once more battered to death.
