Subject | [jira] [Updated] (KAFKA-519) Allow commiting the state of single KafkaStream |
Date | Wed, 06 Feb 2013 06:29:15 GMT |
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-519?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Esko Suomi updated KAFKA-519: ----------------------------- Priority: Minor (was: Major) > Allow commiting the state of single KafkaStream > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-519 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-519 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.7, 0.7.1 > Reporter: Esko Suomi > Priority: Minor > > Currently consuming multiple topics through ZK by first acquiring ConsumerConnector and then fetching message streams for wanted topics. And when the messages have been consumed, the current consuming state is commited with the method ConsumerConnector#commitOffsets(). > This scheme has a flaw when the consuming application is used as sort of a data piping proxy instead of final consuming sink. In our case we read data from Kafka, repackage it and only then move it to persistent storage. The repackaging step is relatively long running and may span several hours (usually a few minutes) which in addition is mixed with highly asymmetric topic throughputs; one of our topics gets about 80% of total throughput. We have about 20 topics in total. As an unwanted side effect of all this, commiting the offset whenever the per-topic persistence step has been taken means commiting offsets for other topics too which may eventually manifest as loss of data if the consuming application or the machine it is running on crashes. > So, while this loss of data can be alleviated to some extent with for example local temp storage, it would be cleaner if KafkaStream itself would allow for partition level offset commiting. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

The NFL is taking Vince Lombardi to Broadway.
For the first time, the league will help produce a Broadway play, its first venture into live theater. The league will serve as a special producing partner of "Lombardi," which will star Dan Lauria, a regular on the TV show "The Wonder Years" and former college football player and high school coach.
"Lombardi" is scheduled to open Oct. 21 at the Circle in the Square Theatre. It will be directed by Tony Award nominee Thomas Kail.
"Football and Broadway are both iconic American forms of entertainment, and the NFL is proud to bring these two unique and passionate audiences together under one roof," said Tracy Perlman, NFL vice president of entertainment marketing and promotions. "Lombardi's charisma and coaching style were legendary - and intensely theatrical. Football fans will learn more about the dramatic private life of the sports hero for whom the Super Bowl trophy is named, and Broadway audiences will be captivated by the story of a family chasing the American dream."
Although the NFL is not putting up any money for the play, it will promote and market "Lombardi" through NFL Network, nfl.com and its teams, specifically the Green Bay Packers. Lombardi won five NFL titles, including the first two Super Bowls, with the Packers.
Lauria, who played at Southern Connecticut State, will be at next week's draft and will journey to Green Bay at some point this offseason. The actor hopes to "get a sense of what Vince Lombardi meant and continues to mean to the fans, particularly in Green Bay," said Brian McCarthy, NFL vice president of corporate communications.
The original concept for the play was brought to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell by Tony Ponturo, who was behind Anheuser-Busch's heavy involvement in sports sponsorship and now runs a sports and entertainment management and marketing company. Ponturo will serve as producer of "Lombardi," which is based on a book by David Maraniss. Academy Award winner Eric Simonson has written the Broadway adaptation.
The league also is involved with a film project on the Hall of Fame coach that will star Robert De Niro.
"There are few actors who could accurately portray the fire, passion and grit of Lombardi," said Charles Coplin, NFL vice president of programming, "and we're thrilled to have Robert De Niro on our team."

I don't know about you, but there are days when I'm convinced my sometimes over booked life is turning me into a complete idiot. There are days when it feels like I spend more time retracing my steps in order to remember where I left my pants than I do accomplishing my to do list. We all misplace our keys from time to time but honestly, I don't know how many times this week I've stopped and called myself all kinds of names
out of frustration.
I'm proud of what I accomplish every week. It's a lot. I consider myself incredibly productive. But man, sometimes I just stop and wonder what's going on inside my brain. I had always had a history of laying things down in odd places and then completely forgetting. I learned over time how to stop, retrace my steps and then figure it out. And for the most part I've done a great job of doing it. But then there are times when I actually walk into the kitchen and completely forget why I was going there.
Does this happen to you? Do you forget things?
I remember driving to work one morning. I had just gotten off the phone with my mom and started thinking about the upcoming weekend and everything that had to get done. There were a couple of softball games, a birthday party, a project that needed some extra attention, yard work that needed to get done. Started thinking about an upcoming trip with the kids and then suddenly I realized I'd completely driven past my exit and was heading toward what was an old job I'd had seven years ago.
Stop right now, close your eyes and ask yourself what color socks you have on. Do you know? I'm telling you, our lives as single parents can really put a strain on our ability to keep up with everything. So it's no wonder we drive off with our coffee mug on top of our car from time to time or go through seven to eight names including the dog's before calling our kid the right one.
I would love to offer you a cure all. Like, have a place you keep your keys, wallet, phone etc. Put things you're
going need in the morning where you can find them the night before. Do crossword puzzles to exercise your brain. But honestly, I think there are just going to be days (sometimes several in a row), when you're going to have to be aware of everything going on and give yourself a moment to stop, think and be cognizant of what you're doing or where you're putting something down.
It's so easy to get so lost in our schedules and the hustle bustle of our days that we completely forget ourselves and what we're doing. I've literally put dishwashing detergent in the refrigerator and have gotten out of the shower only to realize I never rinsed my hair. It's easy to start thinking you have a brain tumor or alzheimer's. My guess is I just overload myself from time to time and most of what I've read assures me that everything I'm experiencing is completely normal for a 40 something with three kids and four jobs. A lot of recent studies also show that stress is a major contributor to memory loss. And Lord knows, if you're going through a divorce or trying to get back on track, stress just comes with the territory.
So, my only advise is to first stop every once in a while and give yourself a moment. I've found exercise helps on many levels. And make a point to try and recognize when you're in a state of confusion and make an extra effort to be aware of what you're doing. Slow your brain down a bit and try to focus. Lord knows I tell my kids to do it enough times every day. This is one instance where practicing what I preach can really come in handy.
So anyway … I'm sorry; what were we talking about?

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Cichlids
- - Decoration dispute -.-
Decoration dispute -.- Kk so I'm planning on setting up a 55 gallon cichlid tank and idk what kind, either mbuna, tanganyikans, or central Americans, but I've made like 4 stocks for each of those cichlids and I guess it all depends on what I see at my lfs :p but i was wondering decoration wise so if you can help me ;) Kk so I have like a lot of old rock that's in a basket and If I got mbuna I'd use that but idk how I'd place it together, like should I make two structures on each side or one main structure in za middle? And for tangans same question! Like should I put less rock that's closer to the ground or something? And for the central Americans, I'd have 3 pieces of decent size drift woods would that be good to put in there? In any specif shape or pattern? Or in general does it not matter how I decorate this tank? Cause all I care about is the fish being happy and me able to watch but at the same time it's a show tank for people to see :) and btw the sand is like white but like a sandy colour if that makes sense :p I just want some help as to what would look the coolest so if you can give me a mental pic of structure and color? And what cichlids would u choose as well? And if ur wondering my stocks I'll just tell you :) So any help or suggestions? |
Mbuna need caves to call their own. If a fish does not have it's own cave it will attempt to chase out another fish from thiers. This can mean a fight to the death on occasion. So it's not so much about decoration but practicality with these guys. |

text: The Arcade Fire are Win Butler and Régine Chassagne (now husband and wife), Richard Parry, Tim Kingsbury, and Win's little brother Will (I bet he loves being known as Win's little brother, but hey, that's how it reads in their bio). 2003 was quite an eventful one for this young band, as it was marred by the deaths of close family members of Win and Will, Régine and Richard. During the whirlwind of emotions that comes with losing a loved one, the band were signed to Merge and completed their debut album, not coincidentally titled Funeral. The album is a collaboration of sorts, with a rotating cast of characters donating their time, energy and expertise to the recording, but at its heart, Funeral is the offspring of the band's core members. Songs like "Neighborhood #2 (Laika)" and "Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)" are dark and brooding, wild and slightly mysterious and build upon the foundation that Joy Division laid years before. "Crown Of Love" and "Wake Up" incorporate lush strings, a thick, layered sound and soaring, anthemic backing vocals to create a moving, emotional listening experience. This band has only been together for about a year and their first album is already being named by some insiders as one of 2004's best. I think it's safe to say we'll be hearing a lot more from these guys in the months and years to come.

HOWARD, Ohio — A 13-year-old girl missing for days was found bound and gagged but alive in a basement Sunday, and authorities hoped a man charged with kidnapping her might lead them to her mother, brother and another woman who disappeared with her.
Matthew J. Hoffman, 30, was arrested at his Mount Vernon home, where Sarah Maynard was found, Knox County Sheriff David Barber said. He said the girl was hospitalized in good condition but would give no details and did not say if she had been sexually abused.
Barber did not say what led investigators to Hoffman's home, which is about 10 miles from the home of Sarah's family. He said authorities hoped Hoffman would give them information leading to Sarah's mother, Tina Herrmann, her 10-year-old brother, Kody, and Herrmann's 41-year-old friend Stephanie Sprang.
Hoffman withdrew $1,200 hours before death: sources
Philip Seymour Hoffman withdrew a total of $1,200 from an ATM at a supermarket near his New York City apartment the night before he was found lifeless in his bathroom with a syringe still in his left arm, sources told NBC News.
- NYC mayor will skip St. Pat's parade over gay ban
- Indiana man back home 18 years after abduction
- 32 states in the path of another wild storm
- Judge vows quick ruling on Va. marriage ban
Hoffman withdrew $1,200 hours before death: sources
The four vanished Wednesday in a case that was all the more alarming because an unusual amount of blood was found at Herrmann's home in Howard.
"We were hopeful of finding more than one of the missing people" in Hoffman's house, Barber said. "But the information we had was that Sarah would definitely be found in that house."
Authorities believe the girl had been "under the control" of Hoffman since Wednesday, when she and her brother last attended school, the sheriff said. He did not know if Hoffman was connected to either Herrmann or Sprang, but said he is not the ex-boyfriend of either woman.
"At this time, whether he's connected to the family or whether he connected himself to the family ... a lot of that remains to be seen as the investigation continues," Barber said.
Authorities had talked to the girl but would not release any details because the investigation is ongoing, Barber said.
More charges expected
Hoffman was charged with kidnapping, and Barber said more charges are expected. Neighbors has said they saw a body bag being taken from Hoffman's home about 40 miles north of Columbus, but the sheriff said that was "absolutely false."
"We have no one that we're aware of who is deceased," Barber said. "So we're still treating this as a missing persons case."
Authorities blocked off about a half block on either side of the home as they investigated early Sunday afternoon, keeping people from entering or leaving about a half dozen homes. But by late afternoon, the only sign of investigative activity was red and white evidence tape sealing the front door of the home closed.
The two-story house with tan vinyl siding, green shutters and a large television antenna on the roof sits in a middle-income neighborhood with two bars within a block away. Holly grows through the weathered slats of the porch. A sheet covered one window, and blinds were pulled down on the rest.
Dawna Davis, 35, who lives next door to Hoffman, said she told her children to stay indoors when he was out. She said he moved in alone about a year ago and that a girlfriend lived with him temporarily with her son until about a month ago.
"He would sit and listen to us up in a tree. He had a hammock and he would sit there and listen to us," she said. "He was just different. He was very different."

Davis said Hoffman did tree trimming work and had built a fire Wednesday night in his backyard, where there was a mound of ashes Sunday with tree parts on it. She said he walked to a nearby park with a lake almost every day and was a "nature person" who collected leaves.
Herrmann was reported missing Wednesday when she did not show up for work at a local Dairy Queen. Barber has said blood indicating an injury had been found in her home, where Sprang's vehicle was in the driveway.
Herrmann's pickup truck had been found Thursday night near the Kenyon College campus, leading to a lockdown at the school.
Hoffman was being held in the county jail, where personnel would not comment on whether he had an attorney. A bond hearing was expected to be held Monday. Attempts to reach relatives of Hoffman and of Sarah were unsuccessful Sunday.

I've been on a search for photos of my old neighborhood in the Grand River-Greenfield area in Detroit. Does anyone have any?
Most of the ones on the net are from my sister. She had photos of Wards, Federals and Hughes and Hatcher.
I've been to the Burton Collection at the main library and sorted through stuff in the Detroit News and Reuther Library without much success.
Thanks for any help.

Machining coolant designed for high-pressure machining
Wallover Oil Co. has introduced WS 8800 machining coolant. The chlorine-free coolant is designed for machining and grinding of ferrous and nonferrous metals, including stainless steel, titanium, cast aluminum alloys, and cast iron.
The coolant's low-foaming characteristics make it suitable for high-pressure CNC machining. It offers rust and corrosion protection for the inner workings of the machine tool and rejects tramp oil for skimming.
The clear blue coolant is formulated with bioresistant additives to control bacteria and fungus. The extreme-pressure lubrication helps extend tool life. It is suitable for use in central systems and individual sumps. Its nonsticky formulation protects against fouling valves and switches.

Shoulda Put a Ring on It!
What a man's ring finger can tell you
-Lindsay Seim
Forget screening would-be husbands based on their height, weight or hair color. What you should really focus on is finger length. (Stay with me here; it's not as gross as it sounds.)
A recent study by Cambridge researchers suggests that men with longer ring fingers than index fingers tend to be more successful in the fast-paced world of financial trading. And past studies have found that oh-so-long ring fingers have also been associated with success in competitive sports, like soccer and basketball. (Jack-of-all-trades, anyone?)
This whole finger business gave me a scary flashback to my adolescent summers at dance camp. (Think cheerleading camp, but with better outfits.)
I gleaned myriad time-honored pearls of wisdoms during those spirit-stick-errific summers: Underwear, like birth control, is always optional. Diet Coke is a legitimate meal replacement. And the Gillette Mach 3 men's razor is hands down THE BEST shave your gams will ever get. (That one I still support.)
But the most prophetic of all was this:
Always check out a guy's ring finger before you get too into him, to make sure he's on the market. And if there's no ring, look close to make sure there's no tan line where a ring was.
My older dormmate stoically placed this gem into my 15-year-old lap over a couple of Diet Cokes and half a bag of Jolly Ranchers. She was more right than she possibly could have imagined (about the underwear and the ring-finger obsession).
English scientists suggest that men's ring finger (ahem…) length issue is actually formed in utero, and that the relatively longer ring finger indicates greater exposure to androgen, the male hormone. Previous studies have shown that ample androgen heightens confidence, persistence and vigilance, and that it quickens reaction times.
Pretty good mate material, no?
So – all the single ladies out there – take some advice from this old dance captain (and some genius Brits with fancy degrees). Set your man-radar to the following:
Ring? No!
Ghost-ring tan line? No! No! No!
A SUPERLONG ring finger? Yes, please!

Minus two of its starters, the Grand Valley girls basketball team won the program's first district championship Saturday in Hayden.
The Cardinals defeated the host Tigers, 39-24, without seniors Jamie Vance, who is sick, and Wynette Jackson, who has a sprained ankle. Grand Valley already had a spot reserved in Friday and Saturday's regional tournament after winning the regular season district title.
However, Cardinals coach Mike Johnson said he didn't rest Vance and Jackson this weekend because he wanted to. He had to.
"I'm not sure we'll have them next weekend," he said.
In their absence, senior Julianne Jones and sophomore Megan Johnson stepped up. Jones scored a game-high 13 points Saturday. Megan Johnson added eight for Grand Valley.
"Julianne has never had to be the dominant scorer, and she led us two nights in a row," Mike Johnson said.
Grand Valley defeated Rangely on Friday to advance to Saturday's championship. Hayden's inspired, come-from-behind effort in Friday's win against Meeker gave the Tigers the opportunity to play for a district title on their home court Saturday.
Grand Valley and Hayden will advance to the regional tournament in Grand Junction on Friday and Saturday, where they will face Dolores or Nucla, the regional representatives from District 3.
The top two teams from the regional tournament advance to the state tournament in Pueblo.
Grand Valley and Hayden are senior-dominated teams, so both have visions of making the state tournament field.
"Some of these girls have been dreaming about going to state since they were freshmen," Tigers coach Jayme Adams said. "If we play well on Friday, we go to state."
The emotional and physical toll that Friday's game -- a must-win situation -- took on Hayden was evident in Saturday's loss to Grand Valley. The Tigers had little left to counter the balance and depth of the Cardinals.
The district championship is the first step in what Grand Valley hopes is an extended postseason run.
"From the first summer camp, right there we started to prepare for a state championship," Cardinals coach Johnson said. "This is the best team I've had. This team understands the game."
Grand Valley never trailed Saturday. The Tigers closed to within 30-21 on senior Whitney Bell's 3-pointer at the end of the third quarter, but the Cardinals went on a 9-3 run in the fourth to close out the game.
Bell led Hayden with 11 points. Senior Alycia Boyd added 10. Senior Jamie Waugh, one of the Tigers' primary post players and rebounders, went down with an ankle injury in the second quarter. She will have a week to recover before Hayden's game Friday.
Rangely won the boys District 5 championship. Grand Valley was second after defeating Hayden by three points Friday night. Both teams advance to the regional tournament in Grand Junction.

Born and raised in England, Jordan Scott's directorial career at RSA has spanned fifteen years. In that time, she has worked throughout the world for the multi- national company, directing campaigns for many prominent agencies and clients. Scott conceived and directed the first ever short-film/ TV advertising campaign for PRADA. Premiering at the Berlin Film Festival, "Thunder Perfect Mind" was inspired by the ancient Gnostic poem of the same name. In the short, one girl represents all women, free to embody more than one authentic self. The film is poetic, independent and strikingly feminine. In 2005, "All the Invisible Children" premiered at the Venice Film Festival. The film benefited UNICEF and The World Hunger Program, featuring seven shorts about childhood adversity through the eyes of seven renowned directors. Scott's film was "Jonathan," in which the grim reality of a war photographer's career is told through the lens of a child's eye. Her debut feature film, "Cracks," premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2009. Starring Eva Green and set in 1930's England, the film is a compelling tale of adolescent obsession and innocence corrupted. The movie displays the same strengths that Jordan brings to her commercials. Her work is consistently stylish and seductive, but there is always a current of candid honesty as well. Scott has led commercial campaigns for prominent clients including Nike, Armani, Land Rover, Renault, Marks & Spencer, Credit Suisse, Kellogg's and Sony. Recent projects include campaigns for Martini, Hugo Boss featuring Gwyneth Paltrow and Armani Jeans featuring Rihanna. Additionally, Jordan led a Diesel stills campaign, as well as a film and stills campaign for Agent Provocateur S/S 2012. In addition to her advertising work, Scott is currently prepping for her next feature film due to begin principal photography in early 2013.

Dr. Jack Elias, a specialist in pulmonary medicine who currently serves as chair of medicine at the Yale School of Medicine, was named the new dean of medicine and biological sciences at Brown University, including the Warren Alpert Medical School, on June 27. He will officially begin work on Sept. 1, succeeding Dr. Edward J. Wing.
Providence Business News caught up with Elias in the midst of a whirlwind tour of Providence the day after his appointment was announced.
PBN: What are the immediate challenges you face in coming to Brown?
ELIAS: One of the first things I need to do is understand more about the medical structure and the hospital partners.
The system where I worked before [at Yale] may not be applicable. That's a challenge personally for me to understand the system, and to make appropriate decisions. With the goal to continue things that are going well and to improve things that may need to be improved.
Brown is a place with an amazing tradition, an amazing educational vision, and that is why I've [decided to] come.
PBN: How did the emergence of Brown and Providence as a hub for brain research influence your decision?
ELIAS: Brown has a tremendously unique neuroscience program, from basic biology and neurology to neurosurgery. It's the prototype of what we need to build more and more of around the nation. We need to keep moving forward in this interactive fashion. John Donoghue and his team at the Brown Institute for Brain Science are stupendous folks. Brown has done a wonderful job in bringing his program along. It's very exciting.
I can see this place being a real thought leader and clinical leader in neuroscience for many years to come
PBN: How do you see the role of primary care changing in the practice of medicine?
ELIAS: Brown has a very strong tradition in family practice, with a very unique program to help bring people in that direction. The dynamics of medicine are going to change, with the need for more primary care and preventive care. These areas of practice are going to play a bigger role in our medical institutions. Brown will continue to train the next generation of primary care doctors. The foot print in primary care will continue to grow.
PBN: How do you see Brown's medical school interacting and collaborating with other Rhode Island colleges and universities, particularly in the training of nurse practitioners and physicians' assistants?
ELIAS: A rising tide floats all boats. Brown is very happy to work with people who want to work withy Brown and train health care professionals. I literally learned about the proposed new nursing school an hour ago. I look at the potential to take this area by the medical school and make it into a medical biotech corridor.
PBN: When you first get here, what's the immediate priority?
ELIAS: I look forward to meeting with all sorts of people. The first couple of weeks here, I'll be going around with a GPS and trying to find people's offices and all the people I need to meet. It promises to be a very exciting time.

NEW YORK—I must tell you some more about the "Prospects of Mankind" television show that we recorded in Boston last Sunday and which I only mentioned briefly in my column yesterday. Our subject was Africa.
Despite the heavy snowstorm that had hit Boston the airport was open, and Mr. Julius Nyerere of Tanganyika arrived safely from Washington and Dr. Ralph Bunche from New York. Lady Jackson (Barbara Ward), who is presently teaching at Harvard, did not have far to travel, nor did Mr. Saville Davis, our permanent questioner on the program, who lives in the Boston area.
It was quite evident that these people who participated in the program could have talked for several hours with perfect ease. We all enjoyed ourselves very much.
Mr. Nyerere, who is slated to be Prime Minister of Tanganyika when it gains its independence in the course of the next few years, has earned the reputation of being the most moderate of the African leaders who have visited our shores. He is young, as are nearly all the people who are founding the new nations on the African continent. I have a feeling that he will be an astute and wise leader. What is more, he will have wit and humor. His eyes can sparkle and smile, and he is not slow to take up any challenge.
Lady Jackson, whose husband is the resident government advisor in Ghana and whose home now is in Ghana, has a wide experience and knowledge of African problems. Her training as an economist fits her to look at the economic questions of these new countries objectively and in the framework of a very broad experience in Europe and Asia as well as in Africa.
Dr. Bunche, of course, is always a joy, and he was quick to take up any suggestion that the United Nations could do certain things that individual nations could not do. It is quite evident that economic help offered by the United Nations would be far more acceptable to the leaders of the African countries than would help from individual nations, for this would eradicate some of the fear of domination that they feel might ensue from private aid.
I was interested to hear that all three of our guests thought the threat of communism in Africa was much less important than the positive approach of giving the Africans some tangible help in capital investment, technical assistance, and understanding of their problems.
If the truth were told, I think every one of my guests was a little impatient that the United States did not have more interest than we have shown so far.
I hope that the television audience, when it sees this particular "Prospects of Mankind" show, will find it as exciting and interesting as I did in participating in it. There is great vitality in Africa today and we felt it in Mr. Nyerere and in the knowledge that Dr. Bunche and Lady Jackson brought from their vast experience and recent contacts.
Now, another word about Saturday and my meetings with the First Congregational Church group.
We began with a question-and-answer period with college-age men and women, and I was astonished at their interest in international relations. Later I went to a small dinner in one of the young minister's homes and there were two college and two high-school representatives present.
Then we went back to the church to talk about the ever-present question: What is the place of youth in our society? Are young people important? Have they any responsibility for what goes on in their communities?
This was quite evidently a popular subject with these young people, and after I had spoken in the church we went into a meeting room for questions. This time high-school youngsters spent more than an hour questioning me on many different topics.
Henry Morgenthau III joined us at dinner and stayed on, and I could see he was a most interested observer. Since he is interested in the educational television program, I could see him wondering how he could use an intelligent group of high-school or college youngsters to stimulate interest in a foreign affairs subject that is not supposed to be of great interest to these age groups.
