Q: How to create simple kafka in kubernetes I have a task to create an application with kafka in kubernetes. But when i connect consumer to kafka i got error:

WARN 1 --- [ntainer#0-0-C-1] org.apache.kafka.clients.NetworkClient   : [Consumer clientId=consumer-test-1, groupId=test] Connection to node -1 (kafka-service/10.99.233.131:9092) could not be established. Broker may not be available.

How to create kafka broker without scaling just for tests?

A: For me very helpful was this post: https://www.confluent.io/blog/kafka-listeners-explained/
I am changed yaml file to this:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: kafka-service
  labels:
    name: kafka-service
spec:
  containers:
    - name: kafka-service
      image: wurstmeister/kafka:2.13-2.6.0
      imagePullPolicy: "IfNotPresent"
      env:
        - name: KAFKA_ZOOKEEPER_CONNECT
          value: zookeeper-service:2181
        - name: KAFKA_BROKER_ID
          value: "1"

        - name: KAFKA_LISTENERS
          value: IN://:9092,OUT://:9093
        - name: KAFKA_ADVERTISED_LISTENERS
          value: IN://localhost:9092,OUT://kafka-service:9093
        - name: KAFKA_LISTENER_SECURITY_PROTOCOL_MAP
          value: IN:PLAINTEXT,OUT:PLAINTEXT
        - name: KAFKA_INTER_BROKER_LISTENER_NAME
          value: IN

This means that port 9093 оpen inside kubernetes network and port 9092 open from host machine.
After that all work correctly.

The Mint Museum will host an exhibition of Dr. Leo Twiggs' moving nine-painting cycle Requiem for Mother Emanuel . Twiggs, who lives and works in South Carolina, is one of the region's most significant artists whose paintings have long dealt with the South's difficult racial history. He conceived of the series, which he has described as dealing with one of the most difficult and important subjects he has ever undertaken, as a response to the tragic events of June 17, 2015 in Charleston, South Carolina.
The cycle was recently on view at The Johnson Collection in Spartanburg, S.C., where it drew national attention after its impact on the coaches and captains of the Carolina Panthers NFL team. As Panthers' captain Thomas Davis noted after viewing the exhibition in Spartanburg this summer, "I'm glad we had the opportunity to experience this. We know that seeing these paintings doesn't change what happened, but I think it's something that families can look upon and have a sense of relief knowing that they haven't lost their family members in vain." ESPN has produced a segment about the Panthers' reaction to the exhibition which will air prior to the Panthers' Monday Night Football broadcast on the evening of Monday October 10.
The Twiggs exhibition will open at Mint Museum Randolph, 2730 Randolph Road, on November 23, 2016 and run through February 19, 2017. The museum is in the process of developing related programming accompanying the exhibition that will foster meaningful dialogue around the issues central to Twiggs' art. The exhibition will be open during regular operating hours, which include four FREE hours of community access each Wednesday from 5-9 p.m. During other hours normal general admission fees apply.
MEDIA NOTE: Media are invited to preview the exhibition at 10 a.m. on Tuesday November 22. RSVP or send questions to leigh.dyer@mintmuseum.org.

Bernard Jenkin MP: Combining the next election with a referendum would set us on a constitutional slippery slope
Wiggin to challenge Brady for the Chairmanship of the 1922 Committee
May's new Brexit hell. An alliance of hard and soft Brexiteers humiliates her. And any sense of progress is lost.
WATCH: Jenkin – "The Brady amendment is very vague"
The ERG dog that didn't bark in the Johnson-preoccupied night
Bernard Jenkin is the Member of Parliament for Harwich and North Essex and Chairman of the Public Administration Select Committee. Bernard was the architect of "North East Says No" and also helped to set up and guide "No2AV". Follow Bernard on Twitter.
Tim Montgomerie is one of the most creative Conservative thinkers of our generation, but it would be unfair to insist that his ideas should achieve a 100 per cent hit rate. His suggestion that a referendum on the EU could be held on the same day as the next general election, to boost the turnout of Conservative voters and potentially to reduce the number of voters defecting to UKIP, sounds like a brilliant wheeze for us, but this would be dangerous in practice, and wrong in principle. This is poisoning the well of direct democracy, not advancing it.
We politicians may use elections to gain power, but that is not their main purpose. Their purpose is to provide for democratic consent. Equally, it may be tempting to use referendums to help us get power, but that both destroys the moral case for demanding this special and unique form of democratic consent, and could fatally undermine the legitimacy and authority of the result. Elections are subject to strict rules and procedures so they are fair, so that they serve to allow the people to choose their representatives. Referendums need to be subject to similar rules. A referendum should be an opportunity for the electorate to determine a major constitutional issue, which is best resolved independently of party politics and of who holds power. For a government arbitrarily to use the process of a referendum to deliberately manipulate the result of an election, or vice versa, sets dangerous precedents, which we would live to regret.
Just last year, Alex Salmond advocated that the referendum on whether Scotland should leave the UK should be held on the same day as the Scottish Parliament elections or the general election. Why did he suggest this? He told Canada's Globe and Mail last year: "so that the opposition parties would have the tactics of their 'No' campaigns tied up with their fates in the legislative election". The government would be right to deny him this opportunity to manipulate the elections. It is plainly wrong to try to use a referendum to influence a general election result, as it is to use an election to sway a referendum result.
In a referendum, voters are not choosing a government, but deciding an issue. For a short spell, there is the refreshing spectacle of politicians addressing an issue, rather than jockeying for position. Parties are eclipsed by cross-party, and extra-parliamentary campaigns. It is particularly important that this should be able to happen, when a great issue, like the EU, divides the main parties. In these ways, the issue at stake becomes the focus of debate, not party politics. For once, the broadcasters primary duty must be to balance their coverage of the issue, rather than of the parties, balancing protagonists for the "yes" and "no" campaigns, instead of allowing party HQs to dictate who is heard. Our experience of referendums in the UK is that these debates matter. The North East referendum debates swung voters violently away from initial polls in favour of regional assemblies. The same happened with AV.
At the time of the North East referendum, the Electoral Commission was implacably opposed to running elections with referendums. In February 2002, the then BBC chief political adviser expressed a view about this, when there was a threat that a referendum on the Euro would be held at the same time as other elections. She had met Helen Liddell, the then-Secretary of State for Scotland, and Jack McConnell, the then-First Minister, and she had
"made my views very clear to the politicians and the BBC…it was a bad move…condescending to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland…it would put broadcasters in an impossible position".
They never explained why they changed their minds for the AV referendum. The LibDems wanted that, because they were worried their local elections vote share would collapse if it was not held on the same day. We are fortunate the AV debates utterly overshadowed the local elections, and that the AV result was decisive, but this set the UK on a constitutional slippery slope.
The clear "yes-no" debate on the EU would be blurred by combining an EU referendum with a general election, driving the referendum debate back into political ghetto of the Westminster based political parties. Broadcasters would be forced to allow the EU debate to be filtered and obscured by the party battle for control of Downing Street, as they struggled to give balance to the concurrent party battle. Informing the voter would become harder. The quality of debate would be eroded. There would be cries of unfairness. A close result would lack decisive authority.
And be careful what you wish for, Tim. What would be the question in your referendum? Would our party be united around the "yes" or "no" campaign, or would we be placing our party exactly where Alex Salmond wants to put his election and referendum opponents? The question of "who governs?", and the question of Europe, are both too important to the future of the British people to make them suffer the obscuring effects of the wanton manipulation of the likes advocated by Alex Salmond.
Tim recognises that a referendum on the same date as the next general election would be seen as a tactic to influence the election result rather than putting an honest question to the people. It is hard to see the legislation for such a referendum making it through Parliament. Tim suggests "the referendum might be approved if passage was tied to something else that Nick Clegg's party really wanted". This would make the proposal even less principled and possibly more dangerous. What would he demand?
Attlee denounced the referendum as "a device of demagogues and dictators", a view echoed word-for-word by Margaret Thatcher (though she later voted for one on Maastricht). That view reflected their wartime experience of the way Hitler had ruthlessly used referendums to advance his own cause, and predated the extraordinary facility for direct communication we enjoy today. Many of us have championed the cause of a referendum on our EU membership. We should not tarnish that cause by laying ourselves open to that charge, or risk poisoning the debate with less noble motives.

Other activities include the interventions given to the pupils/ students who did not master the lesson(s) in the previous day.
c. Teachers may make modification of/or deviation from the TGs/TMs whenever necessary to suit the learners' ability provided that the learning standards and competencies are met. They are encouraged to enhance the TGs to provide activities that will develop higher thinking skills.
d. DLPs/DLLs shall be written in the language of the TGs/TMs. Grade 1 teachers need not translate them to the Mother Tongue (MT). However, the use of MT as medium of instruction must be strictly followed.
So, if you have more than 2 years of teaching experience (private school experience included), you are only obliged to prepare Daily Lesson Log (DLL).

How to align your culture with the sector the business operates in
How culture and values can permeate an organization with guidance from the leader

Wais is currently the CEO of Push Doctor, the digital health marketplace, where he leads a team of over 100 to transform how medical consultations are performed. Wais previously spent 3.5 years at Treatwell, the beauty salon digital marketplace, as Director of Global Operations, and started his career at Just Eat, the leading global online food marketplace, when the company was under 20 employees. He spent 7 years as International Operations Director where he was responsible for opening and scaling the service to new countries. Read more
How do you set culture, in the trenches?
It's interesting, for sure. Again, what's making me smile is, I think of the different cultures in the different industries that I've worked in. When you think about takeaway and food and Just Eat, you had different types. You had your corporate suits, you had your cheesy sales people, you had your most experienced individual, through to somebody who's just straight out of education. There was a wide variety of skill sets but making that group work together, on a shared vision, was brilliant.
You kind of had everybody at Just Eat. Then you had the beauty industry and I was living in Barcelona for Treatwell and I remember most of my suppliers telling me that they loved coming to my office. When I asked why they said, "You've got everybody so well groomed; I don't need to go on dating sites, I just need to come here to your office." We also offered massages and manicures and so on. People would visit our office and say they would love to come here.
Particularly from a Push Doctor perspective, I think it comes to the sector. When I think about healthcare and the culture at Push Doctor, I think the first thing is, it's got to be as organic as possible. It cannot be, we are these three things and that's what we are. So it's how you get organic and that goes back to speaking to the team and getting everyone engaged. When we set up the culture at Push Doctor, it was very, very simple. We had a session with everybody, in different groups and we just said, what kind of company do you want to work for? What do you want as a Push Doctor culture?
We got that, we summarized the words, the theme and every single individual was involved in this. When we did that, we said, okay, let's mirror that to the sector that we are in. If we got words such as relaxed, not worry, it wouldn't have worked. Thankfully, we didn't. We're based on three key things: empathy, ambition, resilience. We empathize, not only with our staff, but with our doctors and our patients. But we are ambitious. We want to be the NHS's largest digital partner. We're resilient. That is healthcare. In a nutshell, when you address healthcare, you have to be resilient. People get great news every single day and people get bad news every single day. When you get bad news, you can do one of two things. You can let that bad news soak you or you can be resilient and you can fight it.
We really matched what we wanted to be, as a business, but also with the sector that we're in. That worked really well and, again, we'd made it as organic as possible. Then we had to look at how we name the culture. So it's the Push Doctor what? We went through a lot of stuff and I call it the juice. It was like Marmite at the beginning. I said, well this is the juice. It was only when I started branding it and talking to the marketing team and I said this is the juice. Juice goes with everything. Have you got the juice? That guy's so full of juice. With the marketing team, I branded it around the office. I put juice cans, I put posters and the fizz coming out of it. In my company meetings, I was like, you've got the juice. I started doing that stuff organically, until people started using it. Then it became the Push Doctor Juice. I was very careful, because I didn't want to do a thing where I sat there and said, it's called the Push Doctor Juice and that's what it is.
Then I came back and I asked people, if you don't like the juice, what do you want it to be? We had some really crazy names. There was one that was really, really weird. We had some really bizarre names. Then, on our Slack channel, we put it to a vote. Juice won, which was great.

You may remember a couple of months ago that we went on a road-trip to the Sahara for the 'Showing the World How It's Done' press campaign. This journey started with the shoot cars at Mitsubishi HQ in the UK, through France, Spain, Portugal & Morocco…and back – a trip of over 5,000 miles. We were commissioned to create a series of press ads for the new L200 vehicle to highlight various features – 4WD handling, emissions, economy, safety, performance, and achieved this by shooting the cars in challenging environments.

The Scented Bones 4.7 out of 5 based on 0 ratings. 3 reviews.
Magical! Murder, mystery and mates... a fun urban paranormal mafia suspense that was unique and interesting to read. I enjoyed the different characters and creatures.
Angel is a forensic anthropologist and a witch. She's studying a skeleton when she discovers that it isn't human and then it vanishes. Working with a psychopomp and werewolves will prove challenging, if not deadly. Will the victim have justice or will Angel join them?
Overall rating: 4.6 I am a huge fan of a certain similar TV series so thus storyline with paranormal characters elevated my interest. Of course this authors ability to breathe life into these characters quickly captured my attention and I disappeared into the pages happily. There are crap loads of intriguing situations and details so needless to say, I want more ! A wonderful read that I am glad I have been exposed to! All my reviews are always voluntarily written.


In a year of uncertainty, property seemed to be the one thing you could count on.
2016 saw pollsters and pundits get more or less everything wrong, from the UK's Brexit vote and Donald Trump's victory in the American Presidential Election to Leicester City's win in the Premier League. Such multiple uncertainties should have spelt disaster for the UK country house market.
But they didn't. On the contrary, from September onwards, leading agents saw a surge in sales of prime country houses and estates with little sign of a slowdown on the run-up to Christmas — a time when the sector traditionally hangs up its boots until spring.
So here are a dozen key properties which show the market to be in rude health.

Az erdei szellőrózsa (Anemone sylvestris) a boglárkavirágúak (Ranunculales) rendjébe, ezen belül a boglárkafélék (Ranunculaceae) családjába tartozó faj. Németül "sztyeppi szellőrózsának" is hívják, és Németországban reliktum fajként védik.

Előfordulása
Főleg Közép-Európában gyakori; északon Dél-Svédországig terjed. Magyarországon többek közt a Gödöllői-dombság területén él, valamint a Cserhátban fordul elő.

Megjelenése
A berki szellőrózsához (Anemone nemorosa) hasonló évelő növény, attól főleg mérete különbözik. A Magyarországon sokkal ritkább hármaslevelű szellőrózsával sem lehet összetéveszteni, hiszen tőle is sokkal magasabb. Magassága 20-50 centiméter, szára bozontosan szőrös. Virágai is nagyobbak, átmérőjük 4-7 centiméter. Gyöktörzse függőlegesen helyezkedik el a talajban. Levelei tőállásúak, kerekdedek, tenyeresen tövig szeldeltek, újból bevagdalt szeletekkel, szélességük elérheti a 10 centimétert. A száron 3 gallérozó fellevél fejlődik, fölöttük egyetlen, illatos virággal. Termése fehéren gyapjas.

Mérgező növény.

Életmódja
Az erdei szellőrózsa napfényes erdők, főleg tölgyesek, erdőszélek, cserjések, közepesen száraz gyepek lakója. Melegkedvelő növény, laza, tápanyagban gazdag, meszes talajokon nő 1200 méter magasságig.

Április–június között virágzik.

Yesterday: The Lowest Interest Rates in History
06/02/2012 07:25 pm ET Updated Aug 02, 2012
Yesterday, the 10-year Treasury note hit its lowest interest rate in history. For the third day in a row.
I didn't hear that reported. Did you?
Treasury notes started trading in substantial amounts during World War I, almost 100 years ago. Until Wednesday of this week, the lowest interest rate in history on 10-year notes was 1.672 percent. That was in February 1946, 12 years before I was born. (That rate re-appeared, for a few brief moments, last September.)
On Tuesday, the rate for 10-year notes closed at 1.73 percent. On Wednesday, the rate dropped past the all-time low, and kept going, finishing at 1.62 percent. Thursday set a new all-time low, finishing at 1.58 percent. On Friday, the rate for 10-year notes finished at 1.47 percent.
That's a 15 percent drop. In three days.
The yield on 10-year Treasury notes actually plunged all the way down to 1.44 percent during Friday trading. That's the new all-time low. Until Monday, at least.
Here are some questions that come to mind:
Is this good news or bad news? (Hint to Obama Administration: you can take credit for it.)
Will the trend continue?
What does it mean for the middle class? For mortgages and car loans? For corporate profits? For fiscal policy?
Who gains and who loses?
Unfortunately, there are no answers to any of these questions today, because reaching a 100-year low in interest rates is not considered news.
Here are the headlines yesterday from the Associated Press:
The unemployment rate rose from 8.1 percent to 8.2 percent.
The U.N. Human Rights Council voted to condemn Syria.
There was a large fire in New Mexico (video!).
A black bear wandered into a schoolyard (more video!).
Here are the headlines yesterday from ABC News:
A teacher slapped a student.
A roommate issued a humorous apology for taking someone else's milk from the fridge.
"Why Idiot Humans Are Best Cyber Weapon"
A new record was set for world's longest Ferris wheel ride.
A mother choked a bully.
I hate to be a scold. I really do. But important things are happening. Can someone in the media, or among our so-called leaders, please pay some attention? Please?
You can't lead people anywhere if your eyes are closed.
Courage,
Alan Grayson

This thesis explores and analyzes the structural forms and construction methods of the suspended frame vaulting systems of two nineteenth century church buildings in Charleston, South Carolina. The research documented the roof and vaulting systems of Grace Church Cathedral and the Unitarian Church of Charleston through photogrammetry and laser scanning. Following documentation, the buildings were analysed to develop framing schedules which chart the framing members, their frequency, dimensions, and joinery for each roof and vault system. This analysis allowed for an understanding of construction methods and demonstrated how the roof systems evolved over time. The thesis provides thorough documentation of the two structures, an analysis of their structural forms and construction systems, and establishes their significance.

This is the last photo taken of Moussia and Alexander together. Studying Moussia's face and Alexander's attire, I have come to the conclusion that it must have been taken many years after their separation in the spring of 1931. I postulate that the picture was taken in America, in the spring of 1941. In June 1940, Moussia had already taken Natasha to safety in the United States. Alexander Borovsky himself had arrived in the United States in late 1940, via Argentina. Moussia returned to France in the spring of 1941, leaving Natasha near to her father, whose Jewish blood she shared.
In January 1930, while Moussia was in Moscow to see her brother, Prokofiev was on tour in the United States. Later that year, he met Moussia in Berlin quite often. Sometimes they met when he passed through by train, she would then come to the station. He writes that he sometimes went out with her in Berlin, once to listen to a Mahler Symphony directed by Bruno Walter. Mahler's music bored him 'to extinction' and she could barely stop him from leaving the hall. In November 1930, on the way to Warsaw, he had lunch with the Borovskys who were, in his words, 'in a sour mood'.
He must have sensed the background of their sour mood. Moussia had confided to him already before that there were marital problems between her and Alexander. In October 1929, following Prokofiev's car accident, she had come to see him and he reported: "Conversations with M.V. about her husband, tragic but restrained; the cause her relationship with Boris, another time about Vladimir, a third time about his madness." One can only guess the exact meaning of these notes: several of their mutual Russian friends in Paris were called Boris, Vladimir could have been Vladimir Baranovsky, and 'his madness' may have referred to Alexander's soft spot for women while on tour. Borovsky may have made an oblique reference to that weakness in his Memoirs when, writing about Moussia's strong personality, he added: "And if I may get ahead of myself for a moment, I would like to express the opinion that when a man has a dominating wife, I think it is perfectly understandable that he might begin looking for someone whom he, in turn, can dominate — another woman, if you will."
On November 22, 1930, on his way back from Warsaw to Paris, Moussia waited for Prokofiev at the station when his train stopped in Berlin. He wrote: "Arrived back in Berlin in the evening, and there on the platform was Mar-Vik, and behind her Weber. The train did not wait long, and as we were pulling out again, de Chamiec [Zygmunt de Chamiec, director of Polish radio] slyly enquired who was the attractive woman with whom I was strolling arm in arm up and down the platform." This comment was Prokofiev's last mention of Moussia in his published Diaries.
Alexander Borovsky and Moussia separated in the spring of 1931, just over eight years after their marriage. In his Memoirs, looking back some thirty years later, Borovsky had the following to say, in an honest and gentle, albeit rather one-sided, manner:
"It was in Germany that I was living with my wife for the last time. During the seven and a half years of my married life, I was so much away from home, wherever we lived, that once, coming home when my daughter was about one and a half years old, she was not sure who I was and was speaking to herself, as if asking herself, whether this was her Daddy or not. She pronounced the word 'Papa' with a definite question mark in her expression.
And it was always the same thing: when I came home tired from my travels and the constantly being in public, surrounded by people, I dreamed of coming home, to be with my wife and daughter, and then to immerse myself immediately into the practicing, to polish my neglected technique, and to renew my repertoire for the next season. But my wife, who avoided all social contacts during my travels, being a beautiful young woman who was often subjected to excessive attention from several men, waited for the moment of my return in order to immerse again into the social life which she liked above all the rest.
So I had to go to the lunches, to the dinners, to other receptions, to go to the opera with her, to the concerts, to the theatres, to receive many people at home whom I often did not know enough – altogether to lead a life which was like my life during my travels – only without the concerts which not only gave me the possibility to verify my interpretations, but also were giving me the means to go on, to continue the good life which we both liked to have. All this did not help me in my progress in the music, this was detrimental to my success with the concerts, this created a tense and heavy atmosphere in my home.
This all alienated me from Maria more and more. She probably understood it herself and during my last time with her in Berlin, I noticed that she was paying attention to the conversations with a man with an Italian name who was constantly at her side, even when I came home myself. I did not pay attention to it, but when some time later I was told that she will leave me, divorce from me, and marry this man, I was shocked.
Inside me, two feelings were fighting one another: on one side a feeling of hurt pride mixed with the traces of my love; on the other, the feeling of relief from the duty of a husband whose wife does not understand his needs and wishes. I must confess that I suffered from this for at least three years, after the moment Maria told me the whole truth. I do not have any ill feelings towards Maria, I understand that she was in her right to insist on her own ways of life, but I regret that she could not help me in the most important periods of my musical career."
The 'man with the Italian name' was Giacomo "Gino" Antonini, to whom Moussia would remain happily married until her death in 1959. She met him in Berlin in 1930, when he was a thirty-year old, impecunious, filmscript writer and literary critic. Born of an Italian father and a Dutch mother, he had had his secondary school and university education in The Netherlands, where before 1930 he had already made a name for himself in literary circles.

Mental health issues are far more common than that you might have been aware and something like one in four people will experience some form of mental health problem every year. That's a lot of people, but still, mental health problems are not something that people like to talk about. Perhaps that's why so many people take steps to look after their physical health, but completely ignore their mental health. The fast paced way that we live our lives today puts an immense mental strain on us, so we should be taking steps to help our minds cope with the stress and the pressure. Here are ten simple things that you can do that will help to improve your mental health, because it's just as important as looking after your body.
Although having a mental health issue in no way means that a person has a substance abuse issue, the two things do often go hand in hand. It is important to remember that alcohol is a depressant, caffeine can aggravate or cause anxiety, and recreational drugs are often linked to paranoia. Limiting your intake of all artificial stimulants will help to maintain that natural balance in your mind.
Making sure that you get enough sleep is one of the simplest ways that you can protect the health of your mind. You are far less able to cope with stress when you are tired and you will start to make mistakes that will only add to your stress. Get into a routine of going to bed at a decent hour, the same time every night, and aim to get around eight hours of sleep every night.
Getting out into the fresh air and exercising will help to alleviate mental health issues too. Exercise is the most effective natural way to improve your mood and reduce depression and stress. It doesn't need to be a full workout in a gym, a brisk walk around the block at lunchtimes is all it could take to help improve your mood.
Many of the things that can lead to mental health problems are all interlinked. You are too busy to exercise, you work too late to be able to get a good night's sleep, you can't sleep because you aren't getting enough exercise and, you don't have time to eat a proper meal. Eating regularly and eating healthy food will give you the energy you need to deal with the stress of the day, so make sure you are not skipping meals, and that you are not eating too much junk food on the go.
An astounding number of people who do have a mental health issue struggle by on their own and they never seek help because they feel ashamed. There is no shame in feeling stressed out, or low, and doctors are well used to dealing with such problems. If you are concerned about your own mental health, don't even hesitate, visit your doctor and explain to them how you are feeling. If you try and cope all on your own, things may build up even more and get worse.
Spending time with friends and family will take your mind off any troubling thoughts and give you a new perspective on things. If you have a close and trusted friend, then discuss your feelings with them, because talking about your problems will make you feel better about them. You may be really surprised and find that some of your friends have experienced the same issues and they may be able to offer you some good advice.
It's also important to make sure that you give your mind a rest by taking breaks. It has been proven that people who go away on vacation every year are less likely to suffer from depression. It's just as important to take regular ten minute breaks during the day and to learn how to switch off from work at the weekends too.
Bottling up your feelings won't help your mental health either. If you feel like crying then have a good cry, or if you are angry, go to the gym and take it out on some of the equipment there. If you don't let it out, then those emotions will just build up and up in your mind and could eventually cause you a problem.
Our mind is very good at playing tricks on us and, often what we perceive to be happening is not the reality. Your interpretation of a situation may not be based at all on fact and you may be blowing things out of proportion. Don't assume that you know what will happen, find out the facts, talk to other people and try and keep things in perspective.
You should be the one who calls the shots in your life. Do the things that you know will make you happy and not the things that you think will please or impress other people. Also set yourself realistic goals, so that you are not constantly struggling to meet deadlines that you can't comfortably meet.

Skier airlifted from Eldora dies from injuries
Rodney Smith (Backpacker's Pantry)
By Mitchell Byars | mbyars@dailycamera.com | The Boulder Daily Camera
PUBLISHED: January 6, 2020 at 1:49 pm | UPDATED: January 6, 2020 at 3:22 pm
The skier airlifted from Eldora Mountain Resort last week following a crash died from his injuries two days later.
The skier, a 55-year-old man, was found unconscious at 10:30 a.m. Dec. 30 after an apparent collision with a tree at the ski resort just outside of Nederland. Nobody witnessed the actual crash, according to Eldora spokesman Sam Bass.
First responders performed CPR on scene and the man was airlifted at 11:30 a.m. to Boulder Community Health's Foothills Hospital. But Boulder County sheriff's Cmdr. Mike Wagner confirmed today the skier died on Jan. 1.
"The Eldora team is deeply saddened by our guest's passing and extends our sincere sympathy and support to his family and friends during this difficult time," Eldora officials said in a statement on Monday.
While the Boulder County Coroner's Office has not yet publicly released the identity of the skier, Boulder-based outdoor food company Backpacker's Pantry indicated in a post that the skier was owner and president Rodney Smith.
"It is with a heavy heart that we share that our second-generation owner and president, Rodney Smith, passed away on Wednesday surrounded by his family and friends," the post read. "Rodney was involved in a fatal ski accident at Eldora Resort outside of Boulder while skiing with his two sons. He left us all too soon but went out doing what he enjoyed doing the most, appreciating the outdoors and all it has to offer."
Wagner said the cause of the crash remains under investigation, while the coroner's office will conduct an investigation to determine the official cause and manner of death.

11I moved to Sweden to be with JV, my long-term, long-distance partner. (The agonization I have over that particular word choice ["partner"] is worth another blog post, but not today.) He's fluent in English and Swedish, and something like conversant in Dutch and Japanese. We mostly use English together, and we talk a lot about words.
The other day the topic of 2001: A Space Odyssey came up. I forget why, or whether we were speaking English or Swedish, but he mentioned the Swedish title: 2001 – Ett rymdäventyr.
I looked it up just now, and if Swedish Wikipedia is anything to go by, it seems that the movie is indeed called 2001 – Ett rymdäventyr, but Clarke's novel is 2001 – En rymdodyssé.
Do you think there's a difference between "adventure" and "odyssey"? How is 2001: A Space Odyssey translated in your native language? Is it like Swedish, where there's more than one translation?

The White House is expected to reveal on Tuesday a new unit tasked with integrating the intelligence communities' cyber data and sharing it with civilian agencies, according to an industry source with knowledge of the announcement.
The unit, dubbed the Cyber Threat and Intelligence Integration Center (CTIIC), will fall under the Office of the Director of National Intelligence's (DNI) purview. It's expected to serve as the main portal for intelligence agencies to share cyber threat data with agencies like the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and FBI.
The announcement is part of the White House's broader strategy to enhance cybersecurity information sharing both among federal agencies and between the government and private sector.
For years, much of this sharing has been seen as ad hoc, lacking a smooth or Congressionally codified process.
The lack of a clear process has made privacy advocates wary that increasing information sharing between the government and private sector will only bolster intelligence agencies' abilities to collect Americans' personal information.
The privacy community has been especially hesitant about data shared with the intelligence community following government leaker Edward Snowden's disclosure of several secret spy programs.
Congress and the White House have made efforts to address these concerns.
Late last year Congress passed a few bills that finally outlined the DHS's cybersecurity role. The measures also officially authorized the department's own cyber info-sharing hub, the National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center (NCCIC).
The NCCIC, housed within a civilian agency, is seen as a less controversial info sharing partner than the intelligence community.
The White House has been making strides to put the NCCIC at the center of the government's cyber info-sharing efforts.
In January, President Obama unveiled a legislative proposal that would give legal liability protections to companies sharing cyber threat data with the NCCIC.
On Friday, Obama is expected to announce an executive action that makes it easier for private companies to exchange cyber data with the NCCIC.
The NCCIC will apparently start getting cyber data from the intelligence community through the soon-to-be-announced CTIIC.
The FBI is also expected to use the CTIIC for cyber data.
The bureau serves as a lead agency investigating a variety of cyber crimes, including high-profile data breaches and cyber espionage.
The FBI was the agency that first pinned the Sony Pictures hack on North Korea. It also often notifies companies they have been hacked and issues warnings to private companies about popular cyberattacks.
A senior administration official said White House counterterrorism czar Lisa Monaco would make the announcement Tuesday during a speech at the Wilson Center.
"The CTIIC will be a national cyber threat intelligence center that will 'connect the dots' between various cyber threats to the nation so that relevant departments and agencies are aware of these threats in as close to real time as possible," the official said.
The agency's mission will include providing integrated all-source analysis of foreign cyber threats, improving intelligence sharing among federal cybersecurity centers and facilitating efforts by the government to counter foreign cyber threats.
"No existing agency has the responsibility for performing these functions, so we need these gaps to be filled to help the federal government meet its responsibilities in cybersecurity," the official said.

Bitcoin millionaires aren't just buying Lambos and moving to Japan. Here's how they spend their money and what they do with it.
The term 'Bitcoin Millionaire' today is not uncommon, with many individuals having made a fortune from investing in the first cryptocurrency that launched in 2009. Invented by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin works on the blockchain system and runs without a third party – meaning there are no bank regulations whatsoever. The coin, which was initially worth less than a dollar, can now cost you around $12,000 each, and the lucky few who got in first are now living a lavish life and spending their time travelling the world, starting their own companies and, of course, investing in more Bitcoin. Take a look at some of them below.
Shrem first learned about Bitcoin in 2011 while studying at Brooklyn College. Initially, he purchased 500 coins priced at $3 each and then kept investing more as the price rose. Whilst still in college, Shrem founded the bitcoin exchange startup Bit Instant, a company that allows fellow Bitcoin investors to directly use the crytocurrency to shop from over 700,000 stores, including Walmart, Duane Reade, and Boots.
But not all ended well for the 26-year old though, as Charlie Shrem was later charged with operating an unlicensed money transmitting business. He pleaded guilty and went on to serve prison time. However, his faith in the blockchain system only strengthened after a jail incident with a prison guard and mackerels, the currency of choice behind bars. As of now, Shrem's net worth is around 45 million.
Sabatier first invested $5000, a tiny share of his savings, into Bitcoin (at that time valued at $72) after watching a documentary and reading fourms about cryptocurrency. He bought s total of 69.2 bitcoins, which are now valued at around $1,148,720; the mogul even earned a million dollars in 2017 alone, making it what he calls "the easiest money I've ever made". Sabatier now runs a blog called MillennialMoney.com where he talks about personal finance and entrepreneurship, helping others make smart investment decisions in crypto and various other sectors. Prior to this, he also ran various side-hustles such as domain buying, SEO consultancy, and blogging, the last of which alone brings him $2000 a month.
Perhaps the most famous bitcoin millionaire on Youtube, 18-year old Erik Finman forged his own path when he invested in Bitcoin and left high school to start his own business. He began investing in Bitcoin in 2011, at the age of 12, back when they were worth just $12 apiece. His money primarily came from a $1000 gift from his grandmother, and soon he accumulated around 403 Bitcoins, worth more than a million dollars today, and this is not even including the smaller investments he made in other cryptos such as Ethereum and Litecoin. His motivation was a bet that he had with his parents stating that if he became a millionaire before the age of 18, they'd allow him to keep out of college. Needless to say, he won. In 2014, he launched an online education platform called Botangle that helped frustrated students such as himself find tutors, and he's also currently working with Nasa to launch a rocket though their ElaNa project. Finman recently got featured on Buzzfeed where his video 'I'm a Teenage Bitcoin Millionaire' has three million views and counting.
American rowers and Internet entrepreneurs Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss famously sued Mark Zukerberg for allegedly stealing the idea of Facebook from them, earning $35 million after a fiery court battle. They hopped on to the Bitcoin wagon early, investing almost 11 million in the market, bringing their net worth close to $400 million dollars.
After the Mt. Gox crash, the twins started their own digital asset exchange called Gemini, one of the more reliable bitcoin exchanges available today. As of now, the twins allegedly own 1% of all bitcoins, and are known as the world's first Bitcoin billionaires. With a B.
A student of NYU, Guo started mining bitcoins early as a means of earning some extra cash. Later, when the price of bitcoins started to soar, he figured out the future of the blockchain and dropped out of college to start the first ever application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) called Avalon, a miner manufacturing company for Bitcoin. These new chips were much faster than the typical graphics cards and less heavy on the wallet, causing a huge buzz in the Bitcoin community. Avalon eventually ran out of stock as people were prepared to pay higher prices for the miners, with sites like eBay selling for almost 5000 dollars. This made Guo a true bitcoin millionaire.


This series focuses on individuals and their living spaces. Though it's a slight tangent from fashion, the exploration of personal space is still one that I think is valuable for understanding ourselves and how different externalities figure in our identities. Just like fashion, the way we build the place we live, sleep, and eat in is a very intimate form of expression.
For the first of this series, Sophie and Vincent, a couple living in Pyne Hall, opened their room up to me and Elaine. As Elaine snapped photos, figuring her way around shadowy dorm lighting, Sophie and Vincent recounted short anecdotes and began to make a batch of sourdough in the cozy kitchen they had built by stacking two beds. A little later, they made us two lattes and Sophie, Vincent, and I settled down on their futon to have a conversation about food, coffee, and ballpoint pens.
How did this idea of converting your bedroom into a kitchen and decorating it like this come about?
S: I had the idea to stack the bunks and get rid of the mattress and then Vincent liked the idea too. I remember at first he rejected it.
V: Yeah, Sophie had this idea to sleep on a Japanese futon instead of a bed, so we knew that we could use the two bunk beds to do something else. And I'm also on this vintage La Pavoni coffee Facebook group and one of the members had set up his espresso machine on a bunk bed.
S: Oh really? I didn't know that.
V: Yeah that's where I was coming from.
S: I guess our ideas just ended up overlapping. I actually had no idea about that. But we made a lot of coffee sophomore year and started buying espresso machines and we knew we definitely wanted to keep on doing this and be able to have people over so that the room would be functional for serving people.
J: You guys haven't roomed together before right?
S: I was in a single last year, so Vincent would just live with me. That was like a trial period.
V: I actually like full on lived with her. I didn't spend a single night in my own room.
You two have been together for quite some time and are rooming together now, or I suppose since last year. I guess you could say that this room is one sort of physical culmination of your guys' relationship. What parts of you two as individuals and as a couple are reflected in these two rooms?
V: I guess the room is an amalgamation of all the things that we're interested in. There's not a lot of decoration just for decoration's sake, it's just crammed full of all the hobby stuff that we're into. Like the coffee and the cooking stuff, and then Sophie has her music things and we have our backpacks and then I work at the Rocky Cyclab so there's the bike and the bike trainer.
S: And then I have my dolls and stuff.
V: We're going to be two years and one month tomorrow.
S: Really? I didn't know that.
V: Also, I think because we're on the same wavelength for a lot of things, it was much easier to decorate this room versus having a roommate with different interests.
S: Yeah, I think a lot of things we bought or decided to have in this room, Vincent wasn't just like 'Oh I want this and I would say 'Okay they're your things.' It would be more like if one of us buys something, we both end up liking it. So if we're buying cups, we would both be like 'Oh we really like this kind of cup! Let's get it.' A lot of things here are shared.
J: Do you guys split the price for just about everything then?
V: For a lot of things yeah. It's not really explicit though.
J: You guys just end up balancing out somehow.
S: Some things I had are from back home, but we bought most of the kitchen stuff together.
S: Pens. Oh yeah, we have a fountain pen collection and a ton of ink. Vincent bought most of the pens because he was really into it and then I was super interested in it when he showed his pens to me. And I bought a lot of the ink.
S: We take some to certain classes, but we also keep some here if they're too nice.
Both of you have a very interesting and lovely sense of sharing through forms of expression and through your hobbies as well. What I've heard is that you two also tend to wear each other's clothes a lot too. Do you think that there's a relationship between the way that you created this space and the way you dress?
S: Yeah I don't think its anything intentional, but what comes naturally to both of us is sharing things. So when it came to clothes, it was really easy to share because we're similar sizes and neither of us really minded. And now that we live together, it just made sense to share.
V: Yeah, we started sharing clothes before we started sharing everything else.
S: So I guess it started with the clothes and then you started sharing your pens with me.
You both have an interest in food and coffee. Can you talk more about that and how you use the space to share that interest?
S: I think that one of the main reasons we chose this room was that we knew it was really big and we wanted to be able to have people over. We started setting up the space in here and made the kitchen to cook for ourselves and have friends over for coffee. Over the summer, Vincent cooked a lot because he stayed on campus and I cooked a good bit while I was in Japan and we both also cooked during sophomore year. It was just nice to have people over especially since this semester has been pretty stressful in terms of social stuff. I felt like I'd been a wreck, just studying so much but it's been nice to be able to open the room up and have people over and realize that there's more to life than just slaving away at stupid chemistry problems.
V: Yeah I stayed on campus over the summer but I lived on Nassau and split an apartment with a couple friends. Just living in an actual apartment and being able to cook food felt really homey even though I was only there for two months. A big part of getting so into cooking and setting up this whole space was definitely to reproduce that and make our dorm room feel more like home.
S: Another motivation to make this space and share it with others is that I want to open up my own coffee shop sometime. I definitely want to do it at some point. I think you do too right?
V: Yeah, I would definitely want to work at a coffee bar.
S: We were just interested in food and coffee and maybe would want to do it down the line too so it was kind of stepping into that and having fun.
S: The futon's on top of the couch now, but one of my favorite things was how we used to have it put away. I liked how the bed was put away and I didn't see it until I went to sleep because one of the biggest problems I had last year was that my single was pretty small, so there was just my desk and my bed and I would sit on my bed and fall asleep and feel really lazy. But the fact that the bed is away makes me a lot more productive and not like 'Let me just fall on my bed and roll around'…so I should move the futon back down. Also the fact that there's a bathroom—it makes me really happy.
V: Definitely just having the space to work with.
J: You mean how flexible the room is?
S: I agree with that. I think it's really easy to just push things to different sides of the room or push things out or change the room for whatever fits the situation best.
V: Definitely. We have a lot of flexibility in terms of where we move our furniture around. It can be like a fully legitimate bedroom but also an office and also a dining room. I think it suits all of those functions really well.
Last question, if you had to describe this room in three words…?
V: Oh... Vincent and Sophie.
S: That's pretty good! I guess. Hmm... Cozy coffee burrow. Or I guess this isn't really three words, but it's also my safe space. I can just come here and forget about work or whatever. There's a nice separation.
S: Not just like my dorm. I have the things I need and not just what I want.
V: Because we're only in our dorms for a year, it's easy to have the whole thing feel very transitory but I think it feels like we've really able to take ownership of the space.
