1. Second Online Symposium on Elections in Times of Epidemic
The ACEEEO invites all the interested to attend the Second Online Symposium on Elections in Times of Epidemic to be held on 4 June 2020, 14.00 (CET).
Disruption in elections is not a new phenomenon as EMBs have organized elections in challenging circumstances before, like post-conflict situations, natural disasters, and even pandemics. But since the COVID-19 virus went worldwide, new challenges arose which should be discussed by professionals in order to be able to make the most appropriate decision. There is no unique formula with a tested script of the steps to follow at times of pandemics. Certain countries affected by the COVID-19 decided to postpone elections, others introduced special measures in the conduct of elections. Each of these decisions have their short-term and long-term risks and opportunities.
The ACEEEO, led by the intention to contribute to the global discussion, organized the First Online Symposium focusing on the consequences of COVID-19 on elections on the 5 May 2020. The Symposium was attended by approximately 80 scholars and practitioners and focused on Poland, where the Presidential Election was supposed to be held on 10 May, and South Korea, where elections were held on 15 April amidst the epidemic (Please read the detailed report on the ACEEEO website and a shorter version in this newsletter).
As planned, the upcoming Second Online Symposium on Elections in Times of Epidemic will be a follow-up session which has the goal to discuss the decision to postpone the elections in a wider international and legal/constitutional context.
Between 21 February and 23 May at least 62 countries and territories across the globe have decided to postpone national and subnational elections due to COVID-19, out of which at least 18 countries and territories have decided to postpone national elections and referendums; at least 26 countries and territories have decided to hold national or subnational elections as originally planned despite concerns related to COVID-19 out of which at least 11 countries have held national elections or referendums (Source: International IDEA). However, postponing elections involves the risk that the postponement may be politically motivated and abused to prolong undemocratically the mandate of the incumbents. Moreover, in times of emergency the political process may be an important check on the executive.
The first section of the Symposium will provide a follow-up on the Polish situation, where polling stations remained closed on 10 May as parties reached an agreement to postpone the elections. The question remains open what happened exactly there – both in legal and in political sense. The second section will focus on the constitutional and legal background of postponing elections in different ACEEEO Member-states. As the examples of these countries show, constitutions may have not been prepared for such a situation and that may cause that no clear provisions are available. Can the constitutional basis of postponement be derived from more general provisions of the constitutions, or is it not a legally viable option? The closing panel will focus on the U.S., discussing what state election officials are doing to respond to the crisis.

2. Recent events in the ACEEEO
Online Symposium on 'Elections in Times of Epidemic'
On 5 May 2020 ACEEEO held an Online Symposium focusing on the consequences of COVID-19 on elections. The circa 80 attendees from more than 35 countries representing International Organizations, Electoral Management Bodies (EMBs), Non-Governmental Organizations and Universities from across the globe have had the chance to get acquainted with the challenges and solutions of holding elections under the threat of COVID-19 pandemic. The Symposium focused on Poland, where the Presidential Election was supposed to be held on 10 May, and South Korea, where elections were held on 15 April amidst the epidemic.
The Symposium was opened by Zsolt Szolnoki (Secretary General, ACEEEO) and Tamar Zhvania (President, ACEEEO) who both emphasized the utmost importance of the continuous discussion about the challenges posed by COVID-19 to the conduct of elections. János Mécs (Project Manager, ACEEEO) shared insights regarding the general challenges and considerations with regard to elections in times of epidemic and highlighted that as it is shown by the diverse reactions by countries whether to hold or postpone elections, there is no single good solution, as there are competing considerations on both sides.
The panel dedicated to the Polish experience was opened by Krzysztof Lorentz (Head of the Department, National Electoral Office of Poland) who described the legal background and the steps that had been taken to hold elections, emphasizing that only a few days before the elections the legal and other infrastructure related to among others postal voting was under construction, creating a highly difficult, if not impossible situation with regard to organizing the elections. Wojciech Hermeliński (Former Chairman of the National Election Commission, Former Judge of the Constitutional Tribunal of Poland) noted that the Draft Law was passed at the beginning of April in the Sejm in spite of the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Tribunal prohibiting changes of the electoral legislation after six months prior to elections, and in violation of the internal regulation of the Sejm, without engaging in discussion in any of the relevant stakeholders, and the preparations (e.g. printing out materials) were made without an adopted and firm legal background. Alexander Shlyk (Head of the Election Department, OSCE/ODIHR), gave an overview of the Legal Opinion on the Draft Act which focused on how changes were made in the Sejm, concluding that the adoption was carried out in a very quick manner, leaving out important stakeholders, therefore OSCE/ODIHR recommended that changes should be made in a more inclusive procedure.
The panel about the South Korean case, where elections were held successfully, has been opened by Antonio Spinelli (Senior Advisor, Electoral Processes and Political Participation and Representation, Asia and the Pacific Regional Programme, International IDEA) who emphasized that when deciding on holding elections, key factors such as type of the election, time available, and the current state of pandemic should be considered as well as the possibility of holding legitimate elections while keeping the integrity of the institution and the health of the voters. He also highlighted that the experience of the South Korean elections may not be easily adopted to other context, therefore when drawing insights from the said election, countries should carefully evaluate their own context – capacity to contain the spread of the virus; previously existing absentee voting system; availability of resources; political environment; civic duty and multilateral cooperation. Juhwan Lee (Director of Training Department, Association of World Election Bodies) highlighted that postponement of elections was not considered as an option in South Korea, thus the aim was to keep people safe, provide legitimacy and guaranteeing the right to vote. Mr. Lee noted that an important factor was an effective cooperation with government agencies, as well as early voting and keeping the spread of the virus at bay.
The Symposium was concluded by Paul DeGregorio (Honorary Member, ACEEEO), who pointed out that the U.S. also deals with this situation, where many states decided to cancel or postpone elections. The big debate is about mail balloting, the favor of which is divided along partisan lines, and the absentee voting. Mr. DeGregorio noted that many states are looking at South Korea, and how they can conduct elections and keep voters safe at the same time.

Q: Scale the x axis only in octave plot I am using the Octave plot function to plat a 2D graph.  I want to scale the x axis by 2x (no change to y axis).  i.e. the distance between each unit in x axis is doubled.
How do I do that in Octave?

A: You have to use the parameter "dataaspectratio" of the function "set" to modify the aspect ratio of the plot (as the self explaining parameter name indicates). dataaspectratio accepts a 3-element vector, with the scales for X,Y and Z, so if you want X to be double as the Y axis scale you should use:
set(gca,'dataaspectratio',[2 1 1])

Unlike regular hunted deer, our farmed New Zealand venison never has that "wild" taste so characteristic of game, but rather, it's mild and rich, flavorful but not gamey. The deep rose red meat is lean, with one-fifth the fat of beef, plus more iron and Vitamin D, but not tough.
These perfectly-sized deer medallions are deliciously suited for a quick grilling or pan searing. Cooking tip: to develop a delicious brown crust on this great lean meat, add a bit of butter or oil prior to cooking. Sublime with sweet reductions, glazes, and of course, your favorite rub or marinade. Cook venison medallions to medium-rare to ensure tenderness.
Our 100% New Zealand Red Deer is raised in family-owned farms under the same standards as the deer that falls into the exclusive Cervena Venison Appellation.
Q: Venison Medallions Best way to cook and for how long?
A: Venison is very low in fat and thus it is best served medium-rare. Ideally the Medallions would be cooked for 1-3 minutes each side, depending on thickness, at high heat.


Happy Friday! I'll be honest with you, this week was a little rough for me. I think that weeks where I'm really busy can be tough sometimes. If I'm not uber-organized, I feel I get really overwhelmed and struggle big time! This week was one of those. I had something every day this week, and while I was excited for everything that was on my cal, having to step away from work made getting back into the swing of things tough.
Next week, I'm going to share some of my secrets for working from home. Some of it is stuff I definitely learned after a week like this one and will have to implement going forward. Ya live, ya learn, am I right? In the meantime, I haven't done a links/sales roundup in awhile, so let's get into it, yeah?
The peplum top from this post has been on major repeat! I've been wearing it, like, every other day because it's super comfy and SO versatile.
Can you believe how insane the tassel detail on the $25 skirt I wore in this post is? It looks so high end, can you believe it's from Target?
LaurenConrad.com got a little face lift! I love the new site! Definitely give it a browse.
Everyone keeps saying the skinny jean is dead, but this article from Business of Fashion begs to differ. (For the record, as do I! You can totally rock a skinny jean one day, a boyfriend the next, and a '70s style flare the day after that. Why not?! It's 2016.
This little arm party set is perfect for any spring and summer vacays you may be headed on.
Who else was super psyched that producers for The Bachelorette ended up casting Jojo instead of Caila, as had been previously spoiled?? SO GLAD. Deets from the first week are already being spilled to E! so, if you're dying to know, head over for a little peek. Spoiler alert: she got her first kiss on night one! I, for one, can't wait to see her amazing Bachelorette style play out onscreen.
I had a facial at Bliss on Tuesday, and my facialist recommended using this vitamin c serum to erase dark spots and even out skintone, but I have to be honest, I'm not excited to spend $162. Have any of you tried it? Is it worth it? Do you have any OTHER recommendations?
I think we can all agree that we ALL collectively need this bag.

For years the vision of Ss. Constantine and Helen was to ever more fully develop an Orthodox Christian witness and presence in Colorado Springs. We long felt that if there were five cities in this country optimal for Orthodox witness, our city was certainly one of them. Colorado Springs is long known for its high percentage of various ministries and Protestant churches, yet for all of "Christendom" present in town, many of us at Ss. Constantine and Helen were painfully acquainted with friends, co-workers, and neighbors who were all but "post-churched" in their Protestant experience. Our acquaintances had not given up faith in God, but nonetheless had grown cynical, disillusioned, even despondent when it came to "church"—many members of Ss. Constantine and Helen having "been there" prior to discovering Orthodoxy. What could we do to enable persons to discover, and come to trust, the riches, depths, and fullness of the Orthodox Church life?
Complimenting the building of Holy Theophany temple, we desired Orthodox Christianity to be available to the person "on the street". We envisioned a warm, inviting, comfortable, non-threatening yet definitively "Orthodox", space. We wanted people to spend time therein; reading, conversing, discovering, and perusing the books. Months were spent finding the perfect location, remodeling the interior, ordering books and equipment, hiring qualified staff. If we were to do it at all, it had to be the best we had to offer unto the glory of God and the service of our neighbor.
By the grace of God Agia Sophia opened its doors in May of '06. To date, the vast majority of books that sell are those of, or about, Orthodox Christianity. We anxiously await the intrinsic reward of seeing Agia Sophia bear fruit as a means of introducing people to the Orthodox Church, in the meantime we humbly accept the fact that it is for us to obediently sow the seeds, and for God to bring the harvest.


In this journey, we capture the regulatory compliance logic for the Food Supplier Verification Program in a smart contract deployed on a business network.
Initially, the supplier will transfer the food products to an importer who verifies whether the supplier, country, and food type all match with the correct identifiers. At port of entry, the supplier is checked against a list of known suppliers in a database (managed by the regulator). If the supplier is of type exempt, then the products are then transferred to the retailer. If the supplier is of type non-exempt, then the products are checked against a list of known food products in the database (managed by the regulator). If the food is exempt product then transfer it to the retailer. If the food is a non-exempt product, the importer must conduct a harms analysis (either independently, or using a third-party). The supplier provides the harms analysis report to the regulator. The regulator reviews compliance attestation and transfers the products to the retailer.
The createProductListing function is called when an createProductListing transaction is submitted. The logic allows a supplier to create a ProductListingContract asset.
The transferListing function is called when a transferListing transaction is submitted by the owner of ProductListingContract. It is submitted either by Supplier to transfer ProductListingContract to Importer or by Importer to transfer ProductListingContract to Retailer when the exempt check for the products is completed.
The checkProducts function is called when a checkProducts transaction is submitted by the Supplier to perform the exempt check for the products present in the ProductListingContract. The status of ProductListingContract contract will change to CHECKCOMPLETED if all all the products are exempted else the status will change to HAZARDANALYSISCHECKREQ. HAZARDANALYSISCHECKREQ means the Supplier needs to provide Hazard Analysis report for the products. After submitting the report Supplier performs the checkProducts transaction to complete the exempt check for the products.
The updateExemptedList function is called when a updateExemptedList transaction is submitted by the Regulator to update the list of exempted Orgs ids and Product ids.
If you have an IBM cloud lite account, you can also use the free version of the Blockchain Platform 2.0 for this pattern.
Finally, install the container service plugin. This plugin allows us to communicate with the IBM Cloud container service and provision a Kubernetes cluster. Kubernetes is used here to host the application and blockchain network.
We'll also need to install the kubectl CLI to deploy the application on the provisioned Kubernetes cluster. This requires a configuration file specifying information for each container, such as the base docker image, exposed ports, default command, etc.
To run the Food Regulation UI locally, we'll need to install a few node libraries which are listed in our package.json file.
Golang is a programming language we'll use to write "smart contracts". Smart contracts are essentially functions that can be used to query and update the ledger.
Golang can be installed by visiting the following link, and downloading the package for your operating system.
By default, the "GOPATH" environment variable should be set to $HOME/go. Set this GOPATH variable in your ~/.bash_profile.
Visit the following link to download Visual Studio code for your operating system.
Once VSCode is installed, follow the requirements here to install the IBM Blockchain Platform extension.
We'll interact with VSCode via a graphic interface. If you're running on Linux or a headless operating system, or would prefer to manage the network manually via shell scripts, please skip ahead to the section labelled "Local Scripts".
These smart contracts are written in Golang, so the source code for the smart contracts will need to be copied to the src folder in your GOPATH. This can be done like so.
Press "F1", and choose the option "IBM Blockchain Platform: Package a Smart Contract Project"
Enter a name and version. Here we'll use "food" and "1.0".
In the "Smart Contract Packages" section, right click on the newly generated smart contract, and then click "export" to save the generate chaincode as a .cds file. Keep note of the directory, as we'll need to reference it later.
We'll then need to deploy an Hyperledger network. This is done by provisioning each component in a docker container, and running configuration scripts to create and join a peer and channel. There are two methods to do so, and we'll need to only do one or the other.
The first recommended method is using the "VSCode" application.
Select the menu in the "Local Fabric Ops" section, and click "Start Fabric Runtime". This downloads and starts the Hyperledger docker images.
If the network is started successfully, we should see options to "Instantiate" and "Install" the smart contracts.
First, click "Install", select the default peer (peer0.org1.example.com), and then select the name of the contract we've just built, which will be "food@1.0" in our case. If this is successful, our chaincode should show up in the "Installed" section.
As an alternative to VSCode, we can also use the Hyperledger fabric scripts to provision a network like so.
Next, we'll need to install the "Smart Contracts" / "Chaincode", which are a series of functions that have the ability to modify the ledger. This is done by copying the source code into the cli container, and then running peer chaincode install and peer chaincode instantiate to activate the chaincode.
The install script should result in the following output. Confirm that all status codes have the value of "200" and "OK"
After the chaincode has been installed, we can run a sample chaincode invocation to confirm things are configured properly. This can be done by using the docker exec command, and providing arguments to target our hyperledger network and invoke the read_everything function. This should return a 200 status code and a JSON object with products, retailer, and regulator keys.
In this section, we'll leverage the Node.js Express and Vue frameworks to provide a user friendly way to interact with the Blockchain network.
The backend uses the Hyperledger Fabric SDK to communicate with a blockchain network, which can be either local or hosted.
Enter backend directory, install dependencies, and start application with npm start. The DEPLOY_TYPE=local variable is only necessary when running against a local Hyperledger network. If this variable is not set, the credentials for a hosted blockchain service will need to be provided through the UI form.
Initially the ledgerState will be blank. We can begin populating it with data by creating participants. To get the latest data from the ledger at any time, click the "Refresh Ledger" button.
Click the "Create User" button.
Select the "Supplier" type from a dropdown, and enter a Country and Org ID.
This will invoke a "init_user" function with the following data.
Also click the "Create Regulator" button, and enter a unique ID to create a new Regulator.
Select the "Create Product" button, and fill out the form with a unique ID, quantity, and origin country.
Now, we can create a product listing. We'll do this by selecting "Create Product Listing", and providing a Listing ID and one or more product IDs. Also we'll need to specify a supplier ID, to specify the original creator of the listing.
After executing the transaction successfully, we should be able to click the "Refresh Ledger" button to see a table of the newly created listing. Since this is a new listing, we'll need to transfer it to a "Importer". This can be done with the "Transfer Product" button, and entering the ID of the listing and the new owner.
Once the transfer is complete, the listing status will change from INITIALREQUEST, to EXEMPTCHECKREQ, meaning a request will need to be submitted to have a Regulator check the products in the listing, and confirm that none of the products are from an exempted Organization or Country.

Summer is over and now Back-to-School time!
Summer brings the opportunity to spend extended time with family and friends. It is about travel, fun, and enjoyment.
Children look forward to summer after a long school year that is full of work and challenges. Many participate in Summer Camps or mix different fun activities. It's a time for making new friends and also to further consolidate friendships and keep building strong bonds with the family.
But, as with all, summer has an end and immediately after comes Back-to-School. Reinitiating school can be both exciting and scary. It's exciting for kids to reunite with friends and share their great summer experiences. At the same time, Back-to-School means going back to hard work and it includes the anticipatory anxiety of a new teacher, a new school year, sometimes a new school and new friends.
All together, Back-to-School can bring a set of emotions, thoughts and feelings that should be monitored on children. Below are some of the recommendations to help children re-engage into school as smoothly as possible.
Be attentive and explore. Talk to your child and discuss going back to school, and probe into how your child feels about. Allow the child to express their thoughts, excitement and possible concerns without interrupting, challenging or telling them that they should not feel that way. Instead, promote a dialogue and encourage your child to share. As they share, you can also provide reassurance, offer support, and ask in what way you can help. As part of the process, it's important to validate their concerns while at the same time providing supportive perspective that can help diminish concerns (e.g. "remember last year, you were a bit anxious about the start of school, and then you did really fantastic").
Sometimes, children have difficulty expressing their thoughts and emotions. Be especially observant of any change in behavior (e.g. any acting out, bed-wetting, unusual behavior, etc.) that can be a way to communicate and to ask for help.
If needed, contact your school counselor or any other school representative to share your child's concerns or yours, and to find solutions prior to the start of school or as early as possible. The goal is to identify any possible issue as early in the process as possible to avoid this building into a bigger problem later into the school year.
Finally, you can also consult with a professional (e.g. psychologist) that can help you and your child in identifying coping strategies and skills, diminishing anxiety, providing support and, as needed, serve as an intermediary with the school to address some potential issues.

New chairman for Galloway farmers
Dumfries and Galloway Region's newly elected Chairman Rupert Shaw with Vice Chairman Alastair Martin.
Published: 11:04 Thursday 19 January 2017
NFU Scotland's Dumfries and Galloway region has a new chairman as Borgue farmer Rupert Shaw steps into the post.
Rupert's Vice Chairman will be Alastair Martin, from Horseholm, Bankend, Dumfries. The pair were elected at the Region's AGM, held in Castle Douglas on 16 February.
Farming at Gledpark since 2012, Rupert runs a Red Deer enterprise and was the first in the UK to become an Assured Park Venison producer.
Speaking after his appointment, Rupert said: "I aim to positively represent our region's farmers as the backbone of this largely rural community when I meet with Government and other legislative stakeholders in my new role.
"We have a job to do in better explaining the importance of farming to those out with the sector in our region. I believe, as farmers, we produce something of real value: food. That is often overlooked in our increasingly unstable world.
"I also want to make sure that others benefit from NFU Scotland in the way that I have. As someone relatively new to the sector, I am open to other people's good ideas and the union has been a key source of practical support to me through the many events I have either hosted or attended. That kind of help is invaluable."
Gledpark was a Scottish Government Deer Farm Demonstration unit in 2015, allowing those interested in venison production to view the bespoke deer handling system Rupert has installed.
As a smaller farmer with a growing suckler herd of Galloways and Whitebred Shorthorns, Rupert has taken on seasonal grass lets to allow his enterprise to expand.
The power at Gledpark is provided by wind and solar systems which were showcased as part of the Union's Renewables Development Initiative in 2014.
Rupert, who has been awarded an MBE, completed 24 years' service in The Rifles Regiment in 2012. In his Army role, he operated in Longtown, Cumbria during the height of the Foot and Mouth Crisis of 2001. He has also completed a dissertation on the UK's Food Security to gain a Master's Degree and in his final Army appointment had oversight of the MoD's only farm, securing its future through the last round of defence cuts.
He has been the Region's representative on the Union's Legal and Technical Committee since 2014 and is also a Trustee Director of The Solway Firth Partnership.
The region's past Chairman, Gary Mitchell from West Galdenoch, Stranraer, has stepped down and is one of three farmers who will be contesting the position of Vice President at the Union's forthcoming council meeting at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Glasgow on Tuesday 7 February. The Union's AGM, conference and annual dinner will be staged at the same venue the day before (Monday 6 February).

She has never been in the spotlight yet she is part of the royal family: Laura Lopes, 41, is the step-sister of Princes Harry and William as she is the daughter of Prince Charles's wife, Camilla Parker Bowles. She's not as known to the general public but she is indeed part of the royal family.
Her father is Andrew Parker Bowles (her mother's first husband) and she joined the royal family in 2005 when her mother married Prince Charles. A year later, she married Harry Lopes. Then in 2008, she gave birth to her first child, Eliza, followed by fraternal twins Gus and Louis the year after.
Thus, her children are the cousins of George, Charlotte and Louis, the children of Kate and William and they'll be looking forward to greeting a new baby cousin when Harry and Meghan's baby arrives this spring.

Q: DLL containing ENUM is creating weird behaviour Most of you guys will find this as dumb question, but need your genuine help here.
Problem:
I have created a separate project to define constants. I am using that project reference to other 300 projects(basically DLL).Everything was working fine since last week. Now I have changed my constant project to remove some ENUM values.
my code:
public enum KVP:int
[EnumMember(Value="1")]
KVP1,
[EnumMember(Value="2")]
KVP2,
[EnumMember(Value="3")]
KVP3,
//[EnumMember(Value="4")]
//KVP4,
[EnumMember(Value="5")]
KVP5

I have removed KVP4 from the project and built a new DLL. I have tried to run the application,but with bad luck I got error related to KVP4 which I already removed.
point1: I've just built the constant DLL in which I've made changes.
point2: I haven't updated constant project reference to remaining 300 projects which is not practical,though.
I am getting confused here because If I update other constant values in the DLL(constant project), that works fine. Other Projects start taking the new values automatically which means all othe projects referencing the new updated DLL,but not in the case of ENUM.
Anyone having any suggestion or remedy to cop up with the issue?
EDIT:
there must be some difference between the word CONST and ENUM (to the one who requested closing this as duplicate).What should I use if I have to define constants then? A model class with props and static value??

A: You should never do such things. You are breaking the system.

I haven't updated constant project reference to remaining 300 projects which is not practical,though

So, the value is still being used in those 300 projects.
You should try to compile them and see if they compile (they won't).
Instead of deleting the value, you can mark it as Obsolete with the [Obsolete] attribute.
And slowly start to change the other projects for not using it anymore. Only after you are absolutely 100% sure that no other code uses this value, you can remove it.

Bruce Thomas (Stockton-on-Tees (Engeland), 14 augustus 1948) is een Brits bassist. Hij is voornamelijk bekend als bassist van The Attractions, ontstaan in 1977 als begeleidingsband van Elvis Costello.

Thomas was reeds een veteraan in de muziekscene voordat hij bij Costello ging spelen. Hij had bij bands als The Roadrunners (met Paul Rodgers en Micky Moody), Bitter Sweet, en Bodast gespeeld. Hij was lid van Quiver, al dan niet met Sutherland Brothers en Al Stewart.

Maar het is zijn werk met Costello dat hem de grootste faam bracht. Tussen 1977 en 1987 brachten Elvis Costello & The Attractions negen albums uit, waaronder This Year's Model (1978), Punch The Clock (1983), en Blood & Chocolate (1986).

Na de split met Costello deed Thomas opnames met onder andere Billy Bragg, John Wesley Harding en Suzanne Vega.

In 1990 bracht Thomas zijn eerste boek uit "The Bog Wheel" , een autobiografie waarin Costello er (in het boek "The Singer" genaamd) nogal povertjes uitkomt. Op zijn album "Mighty as a Rose" repliceert Costello met het nummer "How to be Dumb" (1991). De relatie tussen beiden is dan ook ijskoud.

Ondanks dat en overtuigd door producer Mitchell Froom nodigde Costello Thomas uit om op het album Brutal Youth (1994) mee te spelen. De reünie van Elvis Costello & The Attractions op dit album werd gevolgd door een tournee en het album All This Useless Beauty (1996).

Het was duidelijk dat Costello en Thomas dan al niet meer samen door een deur konden en de groep ging dan ook opnieuw uiteen. De andere twee Attractions, Steve Nieve en Pete Thomas (geen familie met Bruce), hebben later wel nog met Costello gewerkt.

In 2003 werd Thomas opgenomen in de Rock and Roll Hall of Fame als lid van Elvis Costello & The Attractions. Thomas kwam wel het podium op om samen met Costello de prijs in ontvangst te nemen, maar ze wilden niet samen optreden. Thomas' tweede boek On the Road... Again werd in datzelfde jaar uitgebracht.

I have a great regard for Longfellow in spite of the fact that his work is unpopular with critics these days. In his day he was much more popular than Walt Whitman. He wasn't a great poet but he was a competent one. The way he chose to see the world seems laudable to me. A mendicant means a beggar but the term is most frequently used for religious ascetics, such as monks or nuns, who live on charity. Saint Francis of Assisi was the founder of a mendicant Order of Friars. The painting of St

Arrestin-independent internalization and recycling of the urotensin receptor contribute to long-lasting urotensin II-mediated vasoconstriction
Giebing, G. and Toelle, M. and Juergensen, J. and Eichhorst, J. and Furkert, J. and Beyermann, M. and Neuschaefer-Rube, F. and Rosenthal, W. and Zidek, W. and van der Giet, M. and Oksche, A.
Urotensin II (UII), which acts on the G protein-coupled urotensin (UT) receptor, elicits long-lasting vasoconstriction. The role of UT receptor internalization and intracellular trafficking in vasoconstriction has yet not been analyzed. Therefore, UII-mediated contractile responses of aortic ring preparations in wire myography and rat UT (rUT) receptor internalization and intracellular trafficking in binding and imaging analyses were compared. UII elicited a concentration-dependent vasoconstriction of rat aorta (-log EC50, mol/L:9.0+/-0.1). A second application of UII after 30 minutes elicited a reduced contraction (36+/-4% of the initial response), but when applied after 60 minutes elicited a full contraction. In internalization experiments with radioactive labeled VII ((125)I-UII), approximately 70% of rUT receptors expressed on the cell surface of human embryonic kidney 293 cells were sequestered within 30 minutes (half life [t(h)]: 5.6+/-0.2 minutes), but recycled quantitatively within 60 minutes (t(h) 31.9+/-2.6 minutes). UII-bound rUT receptors were sorted to early and recycling endosomes, as evidenced by colocalization of rUT receptors with the early endosomal antigen and the transferrin receptor. Real-time imaging with a newly developed fluorescent UII (Cy3-UII) revealed that rUT receptors recruited arrestin3 green fluorescent protein to the plasma membrane. Arrestin3 was not required for the endocytosis of the rUT receptor, however, as internalization of Cy3-UII was not altered in mouse embryonic fibroblasts lacking endogenous arrestin2/arrestin3 expression. The data demonstrate that the rUT receptor internalizes arrestin independently and recycles quantitatively. The continuous externalization of rUT receptors provides the basis for repetitive and lasting UII-mediated vasoconstriction.

Zion is a Serverless Computing Framework for OpenStack Swift that allows to run storage functions directly on the data. It aims to solve the scalability and resource contention problems of active storage, while benefiting from data locality to reduce latency by placing computations close to the data. Our model is data-driven and not event-driven, because ZIon computations are located in the data pipeline, and intercept the data flows that arrive and return from the object store.

## Architecture
![Architecture](docs/img/architecture.png?raw=true "Architecture")

### Interception Software and Metadata Service
We built a new Swift interception middleware for Zion to accomplish two primary tasks: 1. The management of function code deployment and libraries, including the triggers that cause the functions to be run; and 2. Redirection of requests and responses through the computation layer when they need to be processed by any function

### Computation layer

In Zion, the computation layer is composed by a pool of compute nodes. They are located between the proxies and the storage nodes. In a compute node, each function is run inside a separate Docker container, what is called a *worker*. Zion's runtime is Java-based, and consequently, every function is run in a Java Virtual Machine (JVM). At a very high level, a worker can be viewed as a container running a specific function. Every new invocation to the function is handled by a new thread inside the JVM of a worker. This means that a single worker can handle more than one request at a time. By default, each worker uses 1 exclusive CPU, then a service called *Zion Service Manager* is responsible to monitor the function workers and scale them up and down depending of the CPU usage.

## Installation

### All-In-One Machine
For testing purposes, it is possible to install an All-In-One (AiO) machine with all the Zion components and requirements.
We prepared a script for automating this task. The requirements of the machine are a clean installation of **Ubuntu Server 20.04**, **2CPU Cores**, at least **2GB** of RAM, and a **fixed IP address**. It is preferable to upgrade the system to the latest versions of the packages with `apt update && apt dist-upgrade` before starting the installation, and set the server name as `controller` in the `/etc/hostname` file. Then, download the `aio_u20_ussuri.sh` script and run it as sudo:

```bash
curl -fsSL https://git.io/JJq4t | sudo bash /dev/stdin install aio
```

The script first installs Keystone, Swift and Horizon (Ussuri release), then it proceeds to install the Zion framework package. Note that the script uses weak passwords for the installed services. If you want more secure services, please change them at the top of the script.

By default, the script has low verbosity. To see the full installation log, run the following command in another terminal:

```bash
tail -f /tmp/zion_aio_installation.log
```

The script takes long to complete (~10 minutes) (it depends of the network connection). Once completed, you can access to the dashboard by typing the following URL in the web browser: `http://<node-ip>/horizon`.

If you already ran the installation script, you can update the Zion framework from this repository by the following command:

```bash
curl -fsSL https://git.io/JJq4t | sudo bash /dev/stdin update aio
```

## Verify
### Test Swift
To verify the correct operation of the Swift installation, follow these steps:

1- Load credentials:
```bash
source zion-openrc
```

2- Create data bucket:
```bash
swift post data
```

3- Create new .json file and upload it to data bucket:
```bash
echo test > test.json
swift upload data test.json
```

4- Test if you can download the .json file:
```bash
swift download data test.json
or
curl -H "X-Auth-Token:$TOKEN" $STORAGE_URL/data/test.json
```

### Test Zion
Navigate into [Function Samples](Function%20Samples/java), and compile and deploy the *NoopDataIterator* storage function by using the [deployment script](Utils/deploy_function.py).

1- Assign the No-operation storage function to the .json file upon GET requests:
```bash
curl -H "X-Auth-Token:$TOKEN" $STORAGE_URL/data/test.json -X POST -H "X-Function-onGet:noop.tar.gz"
```

2- Download the .json file that will put into execution the storage function:
```bash
swift download data test.json
or
curl -H "X-Auth-Token:$TOKEN" $STORAGE_URL/data/test.json
```

3- Delete the No-operation storage function:
```bash
curl -H "X-Auth-Token:$TOKEN" $STORAGE_URL/data/test.json -X POST -H "X-Function-onGet-Delete:noop.tar.gz"
```

Navigate into [Function Samples](Function%20Samples/java), and compile and deploy the *Counter* storage function by using the [deployment script](Utils/deploy_function.py).

4- Assign the Counter storage function to the .json file upon GET requests:
```bash
curl -H "X-Auth-Token:$TOKEN" $STORAGE_URL/data/test.json -X POST -H "X-Function-onGet:access-counter.tar.gz"
```

5- Download the .json file that will put into execution the storage function:
```bash
swift download data test.json
or
curl -H "X-Auth-Token:$TOKEN" $STORAGE_URL/data/test.json
```

6- The Counter storage function adds into the object metadata an access counter and the last access timestamp. Verify the correct execution of the storage function by running the following command:
```bash
swift stat data test.json
```

Athens, Greece – Heavy clashes occurred on Thursday, December 6, 2018 between thousands of police and black-clad protesters on the 10-year anniversary of 15-year-old Alexis Grigoropoulos being killed by Greek police in Exarcheia.
Greek riot police used many crowd control devices against the crowd, including water cannons, hundreds of tear gas canisters, and grenades, with some officers even throwing rocks at protesters. Ultimately, police sent at least three protesters to the hospital and injured dozens. The aggressive crowd lobbed massive amounts of molotov cocktails and other incendiary projectiles from the streets, and even from rooftops, as pitched battles stretched late into the evening. 66 were detained, 13 were arrested.
Demonstrations of the day began with a student action around noon near the University of Athens in the chilly rain. Minor clashes broke out at the demo began.
After rocks and tear gas were exchanged between student protesters and the riot police, around a thousand people marched together past Syntagma Square and by the Parliament building which was guarded by hundreds of riot police. The march dispersed without incident, and a group of people went over to the vigil site for Alexis.
As night fell and thousands gathered for an evening demo, barricades were erected on dozens of streets throughout the storied anarchist neighborhood of Exarcheia in efforts to ward off attempted police incursions into the district.
Ten years ago, on the night of December 6, 2008, Alexis Grigoropoulos was on Tzavella Street in Exarcheia with his friends when Epaminondas Korkoneas, a special guard member of the Greek police, shot Alexis in the heart, killing him instantly. Korkoneas was found guilty of culpable homicide and was given a life sentence for Alexis' murder in his first trial. He has since appealed the decision.
Korkoneas' parter, Vasilis Saraliotis, was found guilty as an accomplice and received a 10-year sentence. Korkoneas has appealed the decision and will be tried by the courts again in the future.
This year, in a familiar yet unchoreographed December 6 tradition, demonstrations during the day were followed by battles that raged throughout the night between thousands of black-clad and hordes of Greek police.
Around 8 p.m. a raucous crowd upturned a car and set it afire at a Stournari Street barricade next to the Polytechnic University.
Greek riot police used multiple water cannons throughout the night against the protesters, and were observed consistently throwing rocks at the crowds while helicopters and drones rotated overhead.
Fireworks and molotovs rained down on police and their water cannons when they raided certain streets, as groups of militant protesters controlled numerous rooftops inside Exarcheia.
More raw footage from #Exarcheia earlier tonight in #Athens, #Greece shows molotov cocktails and fireworks raining down from a rooftop onto a police position that included a water cannon.
Greek riot police forced their way into Exarcheia Square at least twice, shooting tear gas and beating people as they scattered down other streets. Police seemed to purposefully aim and fire many of their grenades and tear gas projectiles directly at eye level.
It's unclear exactly how many injuries were sustained by the crowd, but there were certainly dozens, mainly from the crowd control incendiaries being thrown by riot police. Our reporters witnessed one person being taken away in a stretcher, two people being carried away, and numerous other injuries.
Witnesses said that one person was medically treated by doctors at Notara 26, the refugee and migrant squat, before being taken to Evangelismos Athens General Hospital. Three people were officially reported to have gone to the hospital.
Greek riot police were filmed throwing tear gas into a building's lobby and immediately attacking those who ran out. They were also seen punching people in the face and kicking a person while they were on the ground after they'd been punched in the face. The police left the person they punched laying there, seemingly unconscious.
Journalists also filmed police hitting a protester in the face with a riot shield while he was handcuffed and standing idly after being detained during a police incursion down one of the streets.

Creates Archives (ZIP) via Node Streams. Depends on Node's build-in zlib module for compression available since version 0.6.3.

## Install

```bash
npm install archiver
```

You can also use `npm install archiver@devel` to test upcoming versions.

## API

#### createZip(options)

Creates an Archiver ZIP object. Options are passed to zlib.

#### archive.addFile(inputStream, options, callback)

Adds a file to the Archiver stream. At this moment, options must contain `name`. If the `store` option is set to true, the file will be added uncompressed.

#### archive.finalize(callback(written))

Finalizes the Archiver stream. When everything is done, callback is called with the total number of bytes in the archive.

## Example
```javascript
var fs = require('fs');

var archiver = require('archiver');

var out = fs.createWriteStream('out.zip');
var zip = archiver.createZip({ level: 1 });

zip.pipe(out);

zip.addFile(fs.createReadStream('file1.js'), { name: 'file1.js' }, function() {
  zip.addFile(fs.createReadStream('file2.js'), { name: 'file2.js' }, function() {
    zip.finalize(function(written) { console.log(written + ' total bytes written'); });
  });
});
```
