Scalability and Composability Techniques for Network Simulation
Xu, Donghua
MetadataShow full item record
Simulation has become an important way to observe and understand various networking phenomena under various conditions. As the demand to simulate larger and more complex networks increases, the limited computing capacity of a single workstation and the limited simulation capability of a single network simulator have become apparent obstacles to the simulationists. In this research we develop techniques that can scale a simulation to address the limited capacity of a single workstation, as well as techniques that can compose a simulation from different simulator components to address the limited capability of a single network simulator. We scale a simulation with two different approaches: 1) We reduce the resource requirement of a simulation substantially, so that larger simulations can fit into one single workstation. In this thesis, we develop three technqiues (Negative Forwarding Table, Multicast Routing Object Aggregation and NIx-Vector Unicast Routing) to aggregate and compress the large amount of superfluous or redundant routing state in large multicast simulations. 2) The other approach to scale network simulations is to partition a simulation model in a way that makes the best use of the resources of the available computer cluster, and distribute the simulation onto the different processors of the computer cluster to obtain the best parallel simulation performance. We develop a novel empirical methodology called BencHMAP (Benchmark-Based Hardware and Model Aware Partitioning) that runs small sets of benchmark simulations to derive the right formulas of calculating the weights that are used to partition the simulation on a given computer cluster. On the other hand, to address the problem of the limited capability of a network simulator, we develop techniques for building complex network simulations by composing from independent components. With different existing simulators good at different protocol layers/scenarios, we can make each simulator execute the layers where it excels, using a simulation backplane to be the interface between different simulators. In this thesis we demonstrate that these techniques enable us to not only scale up simulations by orders of magnitude with a good performance, but also compose complex simulations with high fidelity.

Otherside V2 – Migration
Length – 38″
Width – 10″
Wheelbase – 25.5 – 26.5″
If the Brightside and Darkside are too small for you, the grass is always greener on the Otherside!
The Otherside is a Directional, Top Mount Freeride Longboard with Radial Drop, 3-Stage Rocker and a Kick-tail, in a slightly larger package (can't we all hope!?). The difference between the Otherside and it's Brightside and Darkside counterparts is a 2″ longer wheelbase and larger standing platform and wide cutout shape. It still fits 70mm Rayne Envy Longboard Wheels, but we think it's most fun on the 64mm Envy. Longboard Wheels.
This hybrid longboard crosses over a love of radial drops for downhill leverage, control and lock-in with a kick tail to get up, over and around everything and anything. Now you can ollie, manual, blunt and firecracker just like a skateboard – but on a longboard with soft wheels!
Construction Details
Missionary Construction – The classic Rayne sandwich construction you know and love.
Vert-Lam Bamboo Core – Stronger than steel, light like a feather
Pre-tensioned Biax fibreglass – Adds long life, durability, strength and energy return.
Sublimated Artwork – Scratch-resistant ink is tattooed into the deck.
Sharp Edges – Final touch for locked in feet.
Speed-stiff – Don't get bounced! Stiff boards will make you stable at high speeds.
Directional Shape – Gives extra edge feel for carving, cruising and speed.
3D Wheelwells – Fight against nasty wheelbite and keep your feet in place.
3 Stage Rocker – Pre-loads your legs for easier tucking and turning.
Radial Drop Platform – Cradles your feet to keep them where you want. Ideal for freeriding.
Mean Cave – Concave designed to be steeper in the middle to give you both pockets and gas pedals.
Universal Variable Top Mounting – Lets you pick the wheelbase that works best for you.
Bee Orange Finish – Smells good, taste great, and seals and protects your Longboard without harmful chemicals.
These shredders ride the Otherside. Tag your photos #rayneotherside on Instagram.

Guten Tag,
I've been working on this design for a few weeks. As we assess the extent of the damage wrought by TLASILA after its blind, twenty-year romp, a new, encapsulating motif seemed not just appropriate, but utterly essential.

This is how I feel. Braced for attack, poised to slip (unnoticed, if fate holds sway) through the acrid cloak of impermanence into the unknown.

2012 JKUR Electrical System Problem
We've had our Rubicon for 4 weeks now and LOVE IT!!! It did, however, recently have a serious problem. Four days ago the head lights would stay on during the day light and the dash/nav radio screen went into the night time dim mode. This was when the auto feature on the lighting multi-stick was chosen. Then the next day, the wiper would swipe once when starting the vehicle and would give one swipe every 40 seconds while the vehicle was running. Dealer checked it out and said that the TIPM was bad. For all of you that don't know, the TIPM (Totally Integrated Power Module) is the new name for the high-tech fuse box with a hidden lower layer of relays etc. The dealer was great. Got one next day delivery and had it installed by noon. I drove it home in the afternoon with an ear to ear proud grin with all of my music library at my every whim. So, although it's a pain to have a brand new expensive toy that needs repair. I still love my new Rubi. It rides great, tracks down the road great, has a quick spunky response and goes up hills like it could climb vertically if I tried. I just hope that this isn't a sign of more bad electrical issues to come. I'm glad it was replaced under warranty because I think the bill would have approached a thousand bucks if I had to pay for it.

The White House moved quickly to debunk North Korea's exaggerated claim that a Jan. 5 "artificial earthquake" at the site where Pyongyang had conducted three previous nuclear tests was a breakthrough detonation of a hydrogen bomb. The size of the blast was similar to that of North Korea's January 2013 test and had a yield thousands of times lower than the yield expected of a hydrogen blast. But in downplaying North Korea's claim so as not to feed Kim Jong-un's cravings for international attention, the Obama administration risks underplaying the growing danger posed by North Korea's unchecked efforts to develop nuclear and missile capabilities needed to threaten a nuclear strike on the United States.

China, Hong Kong shares rise as Yellen's remarks raise risk appetite
* CSI300 +1.4 pct; SSEC +1.4 pct; HSI +1.4 pct
* Yellen remarks improve risk appetite
* Oil majors rise on reform expectations
SHANGHAI, March 30 (Reuters) - China and Hong Kong stocks rose more than 1 percent on Wednesday, tracking global markets, as the U.S. Federal Reserve's dovish remarks improved investor risk appetite.
Both China's blue-chip CSI300 index and the Shanghai Composite Index rose 1.4 percent by the lunch break, to 3,178.00 points and 2,961.83 points, respectively.
In Hong Kong, the benchmark Hang Seng Index added 1.4 percent, while the Hong Kong China Enterprises Index firmed 2.1 percent.
Markets scaled back expectations for how fast and far U.S. interest rates might rise this year, after Fed Chair Janet Yellen emphasised global dangers to growth and inflation, and thus the need to proceed "cautiously" on tightening policy.
"Many investors have been haunted by looming U.S. rate hikes, which is like a sword hanging over the head," said Wu Kan, head of equity trading at investment firm Shanshan Finance.

Mills to open new business school headquarters
The M.B.A. students at Mills College finally have a school of their own.
This fall, the Lorry I. Lokey Graduate School of Business will move into its $28.5 million, 28,500-square-foot green headquarters at the heart of the Mills campus in Oakland.
The cutting-edge new facility could prove a beacon to attract more women, and even men, to the eight-year-old Lokey School of Business.
From 75 graduate business students today, Mills expects to welcome 100 in the fall and eventually to enroll 150 in the school. The student body is already diverse: Currently, 68 percent of students at the Lokey School of Business are women of color.
"This new building will stand as a symbol of Mills' commitment to women and the kind of education women need in the 21st century to be successful business leaders," said Nancy Thornborrow, dean of the business school.
The conditions that led to the Lorry I. Lokey School's creation in 2001 are essentially unchanged. Women in 2007 made up just 35.5 percent of M.B.A. graduates, and 33 percent of students entering the nation's top 20 business schools in 2008 were women. These numbers were almost the same a decade ago, according to a report by Catalyst.
Mills' explicit efforts to train women for business — it is only the second female-focused M.B.A. program in the country, with the other in Boston — is attracting corporate support as well as students.
Goldman Sachs has selected the Lokey School of Business as a partner in its 10,000 Women initiative, which has it spending $100 million over five years to help underserved women worldwide gain business educations. Thornborrow said she believes that Mills is Goldman Sachs' first domestic partner; funds going to other U.S. business schools are in support of international programs.
Any student is eligible for the awards, which are given based on academic performance and need. Twelve current Mills M.B.A. students have been awarded the first round of Leadership Awards, which cover the $25,000 annual tuition.
"In graduate business education, because we are not at parity with men, women in general are underserved," Thornborrow said. "Because business schools have not managed to attract women, and law and medical schools have, there must be something about the material and how it's presented that doesn't appeal to women."
Of course, finance is fixed. Women at the Lokey School of Business learn the same basics taught in other M.B.A. programs, but the theme of being a woman runs through all the classes, which students like.
Jamie Almanza, a recipient of one of the Goldman Sachs awards, is a month away from completing her M.B.A., a feat she has accomplished while working full time in management at an Oakland nonprofit and raising two small children on her own.
The comraderie and support of a classroom of people who understand all that she juggles has kept Almanza motivated, she said.
"Out of my shopping around (at programs at Cal State and U.C. Berkeley), I chose Mills particularly because of its focus on women and women's leadership," she said. "You can walk into a class … and you don't have to feel different."
Almanza said she is comfortable in male-dominated environments — she serves on a board where she is the only woman and her previous boss was male — but Mills has taught her different strategies to make sure her voice is heard in any situation.
"I think some people can look at a narrowly defined M.B.A. like a woman's M.B.A. as being a disadvantage and say that's not reality; you're still going to go to a workforce and be surrounded by men," Almanza said. "But I think the brilliance behind the female focus is there are male instructors and all the teachers have real world experience which brings a lot of real perspective ... into a safe place where you can feel confident and comfortable. ... I went to Mills wanting to solidify who I am and how to be even more effective and still get an M.B.A. that is solid."
Thornborrow described the Goldman Sachs support as an important recognition of Mills' still-young program and its mission to provide more women like Almanza with a graduate-level business education. The business school's profile could rise even higher once it fills its new home.
Other recognition has already been showered on the young program.
The Lokey school recently opened a Center for Socially Responsible Business, a major focus of the program, and last year it joined the Forté Foundation, a consortium of M.B.A. programs, nonprofits and major corporations to encourage women into executive business positions. Forté was founded in 2001 in response to the same Catalyst report that spawned Mills' M.B.A. program.
The Lokey School of Business is but one step on Mills's 21st century recreation.
Since 2000, the college has built a new education school complex, added a doctoral program in education leadership that enrolls 60, renovated social sciences buildings, built a natural sciences building and added an environmental sciences major, renovated the music building and concert hall and created a graduate business school with a $28.5 million home.
"It's been a busy time at Mills," said Janet Holmgren, president of the college.
It's also been a pricey time. The school has spent over $100 million on construction over the past decade, and it is paying off.
Graduate applications alone are up 50 percent from last year, Holmgren said, and undergraduate applications are up over 10 percent.

text: Remotely sensed data of Haiti became the basis for updating maps of the devastated capital of Port-au-Prince when a 7.0 magnitude earthquake ripped through the country. Suddenly government, NGO, and volunteers collaborated using imagery provided by multiple sources including the USGS, NOAA, Google, DigitalGlobe, GeoEye and many other geospatial technology firms. The result was not only a tremendous outpouring of charity, but a technological success via social geonetworks and government agencies. Directions Magazine editor in chief Joe Francica provides a synopsis of how remote sensing became the foundation for many of Haiti's rescue efforts.

NFL Week 2's Sunday night football game will be the Seattle Seahawks hosting the San Francisco 49ers in which the 49ers will end up victorious. This game is expected to be gritty, nasty and more notably, loud! This will be the first division game for both teams this season as both plan on not only winning the division, but working towards a Super Bowl appearance and a victory. These two teams are relatively evenly matched: Both have former Pac 12 head coaches, young athletic quarterbacks, All-Pro veteran running backs and great tough defenses.
The 49ers have a new weapon in veteran wide receiver Anquan Boldin. This new weapon caught 13 balls for 208 yards and one touchdown in his 49er debut last week. Boldin will not repeat his Week 1 performance because the Seahawks have the best defensive secondary in the league with All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman. Expect for Boldin and Sherman to battle it out with their hands more than their feet.
Neither quarterback will repeat their 300 and 400 yard passing games from Week 1, but they should both crack the 200 mark despite plenty of difficulty. This game will not come down to quarterbacks or defense, rather this game will come down to coaching. San Francisco head coach Jim Harbaugh will have to find a way for his offense to manage the noise of the league's loudest stadium.
Expect a lot three yards and a cloud of dust, very few big passing plays, maybe some scuffling on the field and very few points. In the end, San Francisco will overcome the crowd and win 17-14 because Seattle will not be able to overcome their injuries and suspensions.
Will 17-14 be the final score? You can see for yourself by buying Seahawks tickets for Sunday night's NFC West matchup.

China stocks fall on investment rule-change for insurers, Hong Kong shares up
* CSI300 -1.7 pct; SSEC -1.4 pct; HSI +0.4 pct
* Blue-chips fall after insurance investment rules tightened
* Hong Kong rises before market shuts for Christmas break
SHANGHAI, Dec 24 (Reuters) - China's stock market fell more than 1 percent on Thursday morning, as investor interest in blue-chips suddenly cooled after regulators tightened rules for insurers investing in listed firms.
The blue-chip CSI300 index fell 1.7 percent, to 3,802.61 points by lunch break, while the Shanghai Composite Index lost 1.4 percent, to 3,585.02 points.
But Hong Kong stocks ended the holiday-shortened session firmer, helped by an extended rebound in energy shares, joining Christmas cheer in global markets.
The Hang Seng Index added 0.4 percent, to 22,138.13 points, while the Hong Kong China Enterprises Index gained 0.7 percent, to 9,953.21.
Hong Kong markets closed at midday, and will be closed on Friday for Christmas.
On the mainland, blue-chips have been buoyant recently amid signs that cash-rich insurers have embarked on a year-end shopping spree as they aggressively build positions in modestly-valued big-caps - in some cases becoming listed companies' major shareholders. Continuación...

I'm new to j knives and bought a few Masamoto VGs (240mm gyutou & 150mm petty) a few months back. I held off on the sharpening tools so I could splurge a little more on the knives. But the time has come that they need to be touched up. Besides the gradual dulling of the knives, a few small nicks have developed on the edge. See pic below. Are these normal? I'm quite confident I haven't hit anything hard with the edge. I am strictly using a Hi-Soft cutting board . But I know my 11 yo daughter loves to grab the gyutou and cut her fruit. Oh it slides through so easily! ....she says. :) She may be hitting something harder with the edge when I'm not around? Or are these normal wear marks?
I'd like to learn to sharpen freehand on stones. I've read a bunch here about the how to's (although I'm still completely clueless). But I don't know where to start in regards to what to buy. This has to come first I'm thinking. :) And I don't mind buying some decent stones if it would make it easier. But perhaps I'd like to start with one or two stones and progress from there. Is that a logical way to do this? Any and all advice and stone (grit, brand, etc) recommendations would be appreciated.

Contribute To Keep The earth Earth eco-friendly
Set up a solar panel to trickle charge a battery connected to some fans for extra air circulation. A minimal one time investment such as this might even negate the need for an air conditioner, depending on your climate and geographic region.
Invest in solar panels to fuel parts of your home's energy. These panels not only save carbon footprint, but they translate into lower energy bills because they reduce the amount of energy you use overall. These panels collect and store power naturally, so you can power, light or heat your home in an environmentally friendly way.
However, before jumping in with both feet, you need to determine if using homemade wind power is the right solution to your energy needs. In order to determine is the wind generator is going to be cost effective, you need to know average wind speed for your area. A general rule is the average wind speed needs to be 10mph or greater for the wind generator to be cost effective. If not, I recommend you look into solar energy.
Faucets that conserve water. Leaky faucets waste millions of litres of water per year, and cost you money as well. To prevent leaks in your bathroom taps, replace your old fixtures with self-closing taps that shut off the water as soon as you stop pressing a button. This ensures your water isn't left on while you brush your teeth or shave, and it keeps your faucet from leaking.
5--It's a no-brainer to turn off all lights, and only leave on those that will be in use. Closet lights, bathroom lights, hall lights, and laundry room lights should be off except for when you are in those rooms.
Try using led energy saving bulbs or even LED lights in your home to cut costs for lighting. Turning off the lights when you are not in the room also helps to save energy. Keep this in mind when you are leaving home, as simply turning off the lights saves a lot of energy!
In the show, which opens Friday, Oct. 17 at CounterPULSE and continues through Nov. 2, Szlasa has created a character named Joey McGee who, like many of us, wants to make a difference but doesn't know quite what to do. We can go buy an energy-efficient light bulb at Home Depot, but it was shipped from China. The contradictory bits of information fighting for our attention can be overwhelming.
The easiest way to make cheap electric bills is to simply reduce your consumption. Reducing the amount of kilowatts per hour you use every day can significantly reduce electriic bill by several dollars each month.
If you want to make better use of energy in your home but aren't sure where to start, schedule a home energy audit from a professional auditor. These auditors can thoroughly investigate your home, and suggest ways to reduce your energy consumption, with green technology and other improvements.
Read through the manual before your begin vacuum sealing food. If you do not properly store the food, you run the risk of having food that goes bad quicker than it should. This will make your time and money spent useless.

Ghost Hunting Event At Alton Towers With Simply Ghost Nights, 9th June 2012
The most commonly seen ghost of Alton Towers is that of a lady in a long black dress, who has been witnessed wandering the corridors on many an occasion. Her apparition is often accompanied by a strong aroma of perfume.
Originally the ground which the mansion was built on started out as an Iron Age fort around the year 1000BC. It later became the fortress for the Saxon King Ceolred of Mercia who took over the site in 700AD. He only ruled for seven years before insanity overtook him, inspiring tales that the ground upon which his fortress stood was cursed.
This notion of a curse was reinforced during the 19th Century according to a famous legend. During the first two decades of this century, Charles Talbot, 15th Earl of Shrewsbury, began the transformation of the building into the one we see today. The story goes that in 1821 Charles was returning to the Towers in his coach when an old beggar woman appeared in the road asking for money. Having had her request refused, the old crone pointed to a nearby oak tree and told Charles that 'for every branch of the tree that falls, a member of your family will die'. Allegedly, later that night there was a great storm and in the morning it was discovered that one of Charles' relatives had died, and upon checking, a branch of the tree had indeed fallen (some versions of the story assert that Charles' son was killed while out riding by a branch falling off the tree). Determined not to have the same fate befall any more of his loved ones, Charles ordered the tree to be chained up, and these chains can still be seen to this day.
Although the "Hex Ride" is reportedly to be haunted, the ghostly occurrences at Alton Towers are not confined there. The presence of a large man has been witnessed in and around the Music Room, and the disembodied footsteps heard in this vicinity are usually attributed to him. Other footsteps have been heard in the banqueting room but in this instance they are accompanied by a dark shadowy figure. Interestingly, Most Haunted's psychic medium, David Wells, allegedly picked up on an aggressive, hooded male spirit roaming the building.
But perhaps the most commonly seen ghost of Alton Towers is that of a lady in a long black dress, who has been witnessed wandering the corridors on many an occasion. Her apparition is often accompanied by a strong aroma of perfume. One member of staff believed her to be a guest who was still in the park after hours and asked her to leave. This she did, but by slowly fading away, much to the staff member's surprise! Once the thousands of people have left for the day, the site takes on an ethereal quality which has to be seen to be believed. As dusk falls and darkness descends on the house, it is quite easy to believe you have stepped into one of Henry James' classic ghost stories, complete with derelict gothic mansion. This location is not for the faint-hearted by any means, but we are confident that an Eerie Evening at Alton Towers will be a unique and unforgettable experience.
So as the thrill seekers of Alton Towers make their way home on a dusky night at the ned of the day, Will you be brave enough to come with us as we unearth who and why these ghostly apparitions and poltergiest activity continue at the old mansion in the centre of Alton Towers Theme Park?

'Rustic' isn't the word you'd usually use to describe an apartment in Barcelona, but this one pulls it off. You can just imagine wholesome family meals in the farmhouse sized kitchen. Alternatively, if you're not feeling all that wholesome, have a drink with the locals at El Rincon del Cava, on the same street.
Poble Sec means the dry village. But don't worry. Here, your palate won't be dry nor your stomach empty. This laid back area on the slopes of Montjuic had plenty of watering holes. The village feel of the area remains one of its most attractive features. Climb up away from the traffic of Paralelo and you'll note the sleepy and relaxed vibe. Grocer's shops serve a local community that you'll see congregate in the plazas. Head downhill for downtown and uphill for Montjuic Castle and superb views.
License Nr: HUTB-004679
Beds and pillows in the apartment were of very poor quality thus getting a good nights sleep was not possible. The apartment was up a back street, something which I believe should have been stated in the description.
Simone was a fantastic landlady who was very helpful and extremely accommodating. The location of the apartment was great and very easy to get everywhere. The beds were firm and comfortable, even the sofa bed. All around a great experience! Bring ear plugs as you can really hear the neighbours move around. They weren't exceptionally loud or rowdy, just that the walls and floors were really thin so you can hear them moving around. The bathroom door also didn't close properly so that was a bit annoying.
Fantastic location in a vibrant and very Spanish area of Barcelona, away from the tourists but very close to everything.
The apartment was very central and if you like walking very easy to see the city by foot, if not metro serving the area is very close and easy to get to the main attractions.
It has a very local feel, there are nice bars just around the corner and a gorgeous Turk/Leb place to eat!
The bathrom is compact. Wasnt a big problem but may cocern a group. The shower power was very good though.
Simone was very honest about the balcony so also not a problem, not really a place to sit and watch the world go by, interesting view spot for how the locals live though.
We had a wonderful time staying at the apt. The local neighborhood was perfect for getting a feel for the city. Lots of restaurants and convenient.
Simone was friendly and helpful - even arranged the taxi to the airport for us. Would stay again!
location and amenities extremely noisy in the apartment above and across.

|Summary: A Key Management Application for SSH2 RSA/DSA and GnuPG Keys
Keychain is an extremely handy OpenSSH, commercial SSH2-compatible RSA/DSA and GnuPG key management application. It acts as a front-end to the agents, allowing you to easily have one long-running agent process per system, rather than per login session. This dramatically reduces the number of times you need to enter your pass phrase from once per new login session to once every time your local machine is rebooted. Authors: -------- Daniel Robbins <firstname.lastname@example.com> Aron Griffis <email@example.com>

I have bought several of these safes to give as gifts for college-bound students and it's a great way for them to secure personal items where they're out of view and reach for all the traffic that comes in and out of a campus dorm room. They're large enough for laptops up to the 14 or 15 inch range, but anything much larger is probably not going to be an easy fit (if even possible).One of the things about this safe I find interesting is the safe key versus the security key feature. I have used SentrySafe's similar sized product and the back-up key they provide is not a safe key, but a security key. You probably need to search key images on a locksmith web site to see the difference I am trying to describe here. I just found a good example on a site called Perrin's Key Cutting in Hampstead. That's a business in North London but on their site they illustrate different types of keys and the one shown as a "Safe Key" is very similar to the keys that comes with this safe, while on the same site the key shown as a "Security Key" looks very much like the keys that come with the similar size SentrySafe brand.I know nothing about picking a lock, but it seems to me that a pipe safe key with double bits at the end (this safe) would be more difficult to defeat than a single bit pin security key (SentrySafe). I'm sure that both locks are "pickable" but in very different ways and it just seems that in looking at the keys of these two safes, the one on this Buddy would take more skill to pick. That's a good thing, but of course it also means you need to be sure to keep the back-up key somewhere safe, just not IN this safe.I'm not crazy about the platinum color of this safe but it's a durable paint job that should hold up well. It wouldn't be hard to repaint it if you prefer a different color.I think this is a great safe and I'm giving it five stars. I have no hesitations in recommending it to others.

In his newest film, ">The Mutant Chronicles (review), director Simon Hunter takes audiences to the year 2707. Earth has been depleted of its natural resources, and four corporations run everything while waging war against each other.
During these battles an ancient seal is broken, and suddenly the humans have a far greater enemy than each other: the necromutants that want nothing more than to exterminate the entire human race. Hunter knew that creating a futuristic sci-fi thriller was going to be challenging, especially since there have been so many epic visionary films about future times.
"We knew for Mutant Chronicles that we needed to be distinctive," explained Hunter. "When creating this type of movie, you have to be interesting and bold so that people will react to more than just the 'look' of the film. We had to create a good story, a great depiction of Earth in the future, and most of all, we needed to make sure the mutants were not a rip-off in any way. The bottom line for me is that I wanted a strong film that gave audiences a good gut-punch reaction to it."
Hunter first approached Edward Pressman (who held the rights to the game) about Mutant Chronicles in 2005, when he tried to convince Pressman that it was possible to create an epic sci-fi thriller and still keep a modest budget because of the technology that was available to them. Hunter decided that in order for Pressman to truly understand what he was able to do with the story, he needed to create a "mood" film.
Hunter said, "The short film version took us about five days to shoot on blue screen and about four months or so to finish up after that. We really had no budget and limited resources so most of that short film was put together on my home computers. Thank god Pressman liked it, and from there I was hired to direct."
Both Hunter and Pressman hit the ground running on shopping Mutant Chronicles around town, and once they secured financing, it was time to put together their cast. Hunter was able to assemble his 'dream cast', which included Thomas Jane, John Malkovich, Ron Perlman, Anna Walton, and Devon Aoki.
"I was ecstatic that we were able to get the level of actors we did for Mutant," expressed Hunter. "A lot of them came on board because of the mood film I made, which gave me great confidence in working with them."
Hunter added, "Tom (Jane) has this anti-hero quality to him so I immediately knew he was going to be a perfect fit for the role of Mitch (a rogue-type soldier). Having Ron (Perlman) on set was amazing and intimidating because he has such a presence. Everyone's passion for the project and their roles, though, is what made everything so worth it. When there is that type of dedication, it can't help but ripple throughout everything, and you end up with something amazing."
Mutant Chronicles boasts over 2,000 visual effects and was shot using various techniques. Hunter came up with the idea that they could use CGI along with partial and miniature sets, green screens, and matte paintings to keep the film looking epic but still practical for their bottom line.
"We wanted to use the best technology to our advantage while keeping the project functioning on a very basic level. We shot using a Viper Camera, which gave us a lot of detail to work with that helped us create this retro-looking world from start to finish. I wanted the film have a 'steam punk' feel to it where everything just felt gritty and real but still futuristic," described Hunter.
Hunter's deep-seated involvement over the last three years with Mutant Chronicles was due to it being a mostly independent movie. "When all is said and done, I am grateful that I was able to be so hands-on, but I admit that it can be hard to maintain a positive perspective for so long. I love being a director so even on the hard days, I was still excited to see what we were able to create," said Hunter.
Hunter went on to joke, "I have to say it got pretty tough at the end to not get fed up with the mutants. They almost took on a life of their own."
Mutant Chronicles is now available on HDNet Ultra VOD and will be playing theatrically starting April 24th.

Available on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify and Amazon from 12/5/17... ⬇ iTunes - https://goo.gl/Bys3Pe Spotify - https://goo.gl/5gRXA1 Amazon - https://goo.gl/IfjlYs "New Talent" - Sir Terry Wogan, BBC Radio 2 "Fantastic!" - Robert Elms, BBC Radio London "Wow, what a voice. One thing for sure is this girl can sing." - Mark Forrest, BBC Radio UK "Unmistakable and stunning voice" - Christian Carlisle BBC Introducing "With an incredible voice and clear passion for the business, Kat is truly one of the most exciting talents of the present day" - Female First "Kat Eaton is a best kept secret on the Sheffield and London music scene, but not for much longer. Killer hook, sassy vocal. Mark Ronson style, retro-but-relevant vibe to it. One to watch for sure." - Simon Redley, Award-winning International Music Journalist "Just brilliant. What a fantastic voice. And she's still unsigned - it's amazing." - Georgey Spanswick, BBC Radio London Cardiff born, Sheffield raised and now living in London, Kat is rapidly making a name for herself in the capital. Kat launched her solo career in September 2013 with the single 'Alien'. Since then Kat's vocal and songwriting talents have gone far from unnoticed. Immediately gaining the support of BBC Introducing, Kat set out on her debut tour across the UK, where she garnered rave reviews. BBC Introducing championed 'Alien' naming it one of the top 25 singles of 2013. Kat was then asked to attend the exclusive BBC Introducing Masterclass event where she met with industry and radio. Quickly attracting the attention of BBC London, Kat was asked to perform a live session and interview at BBC HQ. Mark Forrest featured 'Tightrope' from Kat's last EP 'Live At The Foundry' (released June '14 on Ont' Sofa Records, who have worked with the likes of Ed Sheeran) twice, during his popular show reaching 3.2 million listeners, as "Best of BBC Introducing". At the end of 2014 Kat went back into the studio with production team 'Reel To Reel'. Then in April, she had the opportunity to work with heavily in demand producer Neros. Kat's new single 'Giving It Up' is produced by both 'Reel To Reel' and Neros. It was released 22nd June 2015, and made the BBC Radio London Playlist on Monday 29th June 2015, alongside just 3 other artists signed to major labels - John Newman, James Bay and Jack Savoretti. Unsurprisingly given the raw honesty of her lyrical material, and the strength of her vocal, Kat has been compared to some of the industry's strongest performers, including Amy Winehouse, Paloma Faith and her hometown hero Joe Cocker. Both press and fans have often described Kat as the small girl with the big voice. In a music scene that is rich with female singer songwriters Kat's unique voice stands out, with its low soulful register and immense power and purpose. Having already toured the UK supporting the likes of Nell Bryden, Jon Allen and Mike Dignam, Kat will be on the road again for her UK tour over the Summer promoting her debut album, so keep an eye on the website as new live shows are being booked all the time.

i hope that, but i dont think so..
Any way to get around the system and get a code for free?
everyone who used "amazon" method should have 3 keys (steam or xbox one) and if someone pre-ordered they should have two gifts in inventory
aaand I forgot. Before release, I checked steamdb and I found Beta appid. However BETA ACCESS is granted to anyone (on Steam) who owns atleast one copy of Black Ops 2, Ghosts, or Advanced Warfare

Macroscale Thermodynamics and the Chemical Potential for Swelling Porous Media

The thermodynamical relations for a two-phase, N-constituent, swelling porous medium are derived using a hybridization of averaging and the mixture-theoretic approach of Bowen. Examples of such media include 2-1 lattice clays and lyophilic polymers. A novel, scalar definition for the macroscale chemical potential for porous media is introduced, and it is shown how the properties of this chemical potential can be derived by slightly expanding the usual Coleman and Noll approach for exploiting the entropy inequality to obtain near-equilibrium results. The relationship between this novel scalar chemical potential and the tensorial chemical potential of Bowen is discussed. The tensorial chemical potential may be discontinuous between the solid and fluid phases at equilibrium; a result in clear contrast to Gibbsian theories. It is shown that the macroscopic scalar chemical potential is completely analogous with the Gibbsian chemical potential. The relation between the two potentials is illustrated in three examples.

Trading Recommendations For Friday, April 3, 2009
Financials: Bonds are currently 15 lower at 128'22, the 10 Yr. Notes 12 lower, the 5 Yr. Notes 7 lower and the 2 Yr. notes 2 lower at 108'22. The Dec. Eurodollars are 3.5 lower at 98.660. This morning's monthly Employment Report showed a loss in non-farm payroll jobs of 663,000 versus expectations of a loss of 700,000. The initial reaction in Bonds was a break to the 128'07 level which was 30 points lower for the day before recovering somewhat. If you remain short the Bonds either take profits or lower your protective buy stop to the 129'06 level. We remain short the 2 Yr. Notes and/or the 5 Yr. Notes and will take profits if the 2 Yr. Notes trade below the 108'12 level. We also remain short the Dec. Eurodollars and will take profits if the market trades below the 98.610 level.
Grains: Yesterday Beans were 25 cents higher, Corn 6 higher and Wheat 25 higher. Over night Beans were 6 higher, Corn fractionally lower and Wheat 3 higher. We continue to hold long calls and/or call spreads in the July Corn. I will be looking to start taking profits if the July Corn trades in the 430'0 area (currently 411'2).
Cattle: Yesterday Live Cattle closed 140-162 higher with the June contract closing 162 higher at 83.00. As mentioned yesterday this market has been in a downtrend since last summer. I would like to see the market close above the 84.30 level before venturing on the long side.
Silver: May Silver is currently 30 cents lower at 12.72. Yesterday once again provided a buying opportunity for short term traders between the 12.60 and 12.75 areas. This morning I am going to error on the side of caution and stand aside from short term trades. I am a bit concerned that the market has now traded under the 12.70 level for the past three days. If you remain long continue to use a protective sell stop at 12.30.
S&P's: June S&P's are currently 5.25 lower at 830.25. The initial reaction to the Jobs report was a rally to the 844.50 level before the market starting to slowly give up its gains to current levels which are the low since the report. Yesterday we tried the short side of the market only to be stopped out when the market traded above the 833.00 level. I feel this market will be a trading affair over the next few sessions. Near term support is currently 812.00 and resistance 844.00. Treat as a trading market between support and resistance. For the moment I prefer the short side of the market.
Currencies: As of this writing the June Euro is 51 lower at 1.3392, the Swiss about unchanged, the Yen 23 lower and the Pound 75 higher at 1.4787. The June Dollar Index is currently 18 higher at 85.070. As mentioned yesterday the individual currencies are too volatile at present for me to trade effectively. I will for the present be a buyer in the Dollar Index below the 83.50 level and a seller above the 86.50 level.

Aero & Marine Tax Professionals Helps Farming & Real Estate Business Obtain Sales Tax Exemption
Company Successfully Gets Sales & Use Tax Exemption On Purchase Of New Citation Jet
An executive from the company stated: "I needed to see customers in remote areas, which was the main business reason we needed the aircraft. If I went commercial, I would need to take multiple flights. With the new aircraft, we can go direct to local runways. We got in touch with Aero & Marine Tax Professionals via our airplane broker. I thought the process went really smoothly. I had done a couple airplanes in the past with the rules of keeping it out of state for a period of time, etc. I'm a one-man tax department, so I was looking for more assistance. Their guidance was perfect on all the ins and outs and the funny rules that now exist. I was able to explain that to our pilot who kept saying, 'Why do I have to do this?' It was actually really helpful having the spreadsheets that Aero & Marine provided. It made it easy to keep track of everything. I'd seen that they'd done lots of other aircraft, so when I started in on this one, I didn't have any uncertainty. Being a 'tax guy' myself, I can really appreciate their preloaded forms - it made it easier on me that I didn't have to do that from scratch. I would recommend them to others."
Tom Alston, founder of Aero & Marine Tax Professionals, stated: "It's interesting that even a professional in the tax industry who does not specialize in this field may have trouble when attempting to get a sales and use tax exemption on an aircraft purchase. The rules really have changed in recent years, and if you work with a firm like ours that has kept up to date on each change in tax rules in California, then there is no worry. We thought the process went very smoothly."
Aero & Marine Tax Professionals shows purchasers how to avoid sales and use tax, and specifically how to avoid aircraft tax and vessel tax in California and to make certain the full value of their next aircraft, vehicle or vessel goes into their pocket--not the government's. They have successfully filed nearly a thousand tax returns with the California State Board of Equalization. Mr. Alston has also published many articles on sales and use tax. His blog can be seen at http://aeromarinetaxpros.typepad.com/
