A film about friendship and goodbyes. Read more
A film about friendship and goodbyes.
About this project
"Last Call" is the story of Chuck and Bruce, two old friends that have known each other their entire lives.
When Chuck gets some bad news from his doctor, Bruce takes him out for one last spin around town, reliving their glory days. But when their fun comes to an end, they must put petty thrills aside and learn to say goodbye.
This movie is inspired by my hometown of Warren, OH, and the friendship between my father and his best friend, Gregg Lutz.
Warren is a great place. The people that call it home are tough and hardworking, but also kind and fun-loving. They know the value of a day's work, and also the importance of sharing a laugh with a friend. The city has also been through its share of hard times lately, but is bouncing back in ways that make me proud to call it home.
After living the past few years outside of Ohio, I began feeling homesick for the people and community I had grown up with in Warren. I knew that I wanted to make my next film in my hometown, but I didn't know what story I wanted to tell.
On Sunday February 27, 2011, I was on set directing my first year project at UCLA's film school. Shortly after wrap, I received a call from my mother and father, and they explained to me that Gregg had passed away.
The news wasn't a shock. In fact, it was something I knew would happen soon. Gregg was in poor health. He struggled with heart disease for as long as I could remember. But still, hearing that he was gone was a hard pill to swallow.
Gregg wasn't family, but he might as well have been. As a kid, I always liked when he was around because he spoke to me as if I wasn't a kid at all. He told me my first dirty joke. He bought me my first beer. Without getting too specific, he taught me those kinds of life lessons that your parents simply can't (or maybe shouldn't). Most importantly, he, along with my father, taught me about friendship.
I decided that my next project would be dedicated to that friendship, and would focus on what the two of them might have gone through during Gregg's final days.
For the sake of clarity, I must explain that nothing in Last Call is a reenactment from Gregg's or my father's life. Rather, these two men inspire the characters of Bruce and Chuck. Honestly, most of the dialogue and nomenclature in the film come from my own friendships I've formed growing up in the community and and around Warren.
What forms from this cross-generational amalgamation are a couple of characters that are truly fascinating to watch, and coincidentally, a story about where I come from.
Risks and challenges
As with any creative endeavor, there are challenges that will inevitably need to be addressed. Most commonly, these challenges are issues such as meeting deadlines, working with different artists in multiple states across different timezones, and getting the rewards materials designed, printed and shipped in a timely fashion.
Although the future is unclear to every filmmaker, as of now, I am on schedule to meet all of my deadlines. All promotional materials are designed and ready to be printed. Appointments have been made with the sound designer and color artist, and I've been in constant communication with the music composer. We are all on track to get this project off and running in the film festival circuit. The last piece of the puzzle is getting these things paid for! So please, if you like what you see, and you believe in this project as I do, help us reach our goal.

Rewriting history
Jewish history rewritten
Jerusalem's Temple/Jewish history denied
Denial of the Jewish history in Jerusalem and the existence of the Jewish Temple is a central component PA political ideology. This denial started with Yasser Arafat and continues to be reiterated by academics, politicians and religious leaders. The PA systematically distorts the ancient history of Jerusalem, ignoring the vast historical documentation and thousands of archeological finds related to Jewish history that have been found in Jerusalem.
This music video, broadcast regularly on PA TV through 2008 and 2009, denies any historical connection between the Jewish people and Jerusalem, repeats the libel that Israel is planning to destroy the Al-Aqsa mosque and calls on Allah to protect the mosque.
"Oh [Sons of] Zion, no matter how much you dig and no matter how much you destroy, your imaginary Temple will not come into being… [Allah protect Al-Aqsa] from every thief and every oppressor."
Full text: "Al-Aqsa [Mosque] is ours, Oh Muslims, Al-Aqsa is ours, our Al-Aqsa screams and shouts, Al-Aqsa is ours. Oh Arabs and Muslims, no, no, Al-Aqsa is ours. Oh [Sons of] Zion, no matter how much you dig and no matter how much you destroy, your imaginary Temple will not come into being… My land, my Jerusalem, my blood and my honor will not be scorned. Al-Aqsa is ours, how you suffer! How you have bleed for years! How you scream! How you call out to the millions! What are you hoping for, what are you crying for? Saladin [Muslim conqueror of Jerusalem in 1187] ! Al-Aqsa is ours. Oh Allah, protect Al-Aqsa, Oh Allah, Al-Aqsa is ours, [protect Al-Aqsa] from every thief and every oppressor."

PA Mufti: The Al-Aqsa Mosque (i.e., Temple Mount) is "the exclusive right of Muslims"
Source: Ma'an, independent Palestinian news agency, Feb. 12, 2015
Headline: "Grand Mufti warns of the naming of the Al-Aqsa Mosque 'Temple Mount'"
"[PA] Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and the Palestinian Territories and Preacher at the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque Sheikh Muhammad Hussein warned about the placement of a sign by the occupation [Jerusalem] municipality near the Council Gate ( i.e., entrance to the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount), with the inscription, 'Temple Mount.' The Mufti said this step came as part of the attempts to divide the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque between Muslims and Jews, extend their influence over it and establish facts on the ground inside it, like what happened at the Ibrahimi Mosque (i.e., Cave of the Patriarchs) in Hebron, in order to realize their aspirations to build the alleged Temple on the ruins of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque.
The Mufti explained that with the elections of the occupation authorities approaching, all the parties are trying to draw the votes of the extreme right by increasing the attack on the Palestinian people and its holy places. He emphasized that the Israeli plan to Judaize Jerusalem and the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque, and to lay hands on them, is an illusion, because the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque with its courtyards, porticoes and all [other] parts, both those above ground and those below - is the exclusive right of Muslims. He also noted that Jerusalem would retain its Islamic character and Arab identity, and that the occupation would not steal its character and identity, no matter how long it continues its crimes and its falsification of facts."

"[PA] Minister of Religious Affairs Sheikh Yusuf Ida'is said that the occupation had opened the first month of the new year with over a hundred attacks and incidents of desecration of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Ibrahimi Mosque (i.e., Cave of the Patriarchs)... He explained that the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque is in grave and direct danger, and that with every sunrise, this danger grows - [a fact that] requires the consolidation of a mode of operation on the Islamic, Arab and international levels, in order to save it [the Al-Aqsa Mosque] from destruction, division or [from] the building of the alleged Temple. He stressed that the Al-Aqsa Mosque, with all its territories, plazas (i.e., including the Temple Mount), buildings, porticoes and foundations both above and below ground, is an exclusively Islamic and Muslim right."

"Over 55,000 [Palestinian] citizens, including 200 elderly worshippers from the Gaza Strip, held the Friday prayer in the plazas of the Al-Aqsa Mosque…
The Mufti of Jerusalem and the Palestinian territories, Sheikh Muhammad Hussein, emphasized during the Friday sermon that the Al-Aqsa Mosque is for Muslims alone, and condemned the policies of targeting the Mosque that are being implemented by the occupation authorities and the extremist Jewish groups. In addition, he urged the citizens to visit it [the Mosque] more often and to do more to protect it, and held the occupation authorities responsible for the consequences of their policy against the Al-Aqsa Mosque."

PA Mufti uses term "the so-called 'coalition of Temple organizations'"
Source: Official PA daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Dec. 12, 2014
"[PA] Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and the Palestinian Territories and Preacher of the Al-Aqsa Mosque Sheikh Muhammad Hussein warned of the severe consequences for the entire region of the intensification of the attacks against the Al-Aqsa Mosque and the increasing invasions of its premises. In addition, he noted that the most recent invasion had been carried out by a group of settlers, archeologists, and senior officials in the Israeli Security Forces and the so-called 'coalition of Temple organizations,' under the increased protection of the occupation authorities. The Mufti condemned the threats to carry out large-scale invasions of [the] Al-Aqsa [Mosque] at the beginning of next week on false pretexts that do not fool anyone. He explained that these invasions were taking place parallel to the preparations for elections in Israel, for Al-Aqsa has apparently become a target to be profited from in the elections, with which to satisfy the Israeli public, in which extreme right-wing tendencies have increased. Hussein called on the worshippers from Jerusalem and the Palestinian interior (i.e., Israel) and all those who can come to Al-Aqsa, to increase their presence and [frequency of] their visits there, in order to defend it from the continuous and increasing attacks and violations. In addition, he emphasized that our people must stubbornly adhere to their Mosque, whatever the price and the sacrifice, until Allah inherits the land and all it contains."

Note: The PA considers any presence of Jews on the Temple Mount an "invasion." Note that all visitors are subject to rigorous checks by Israeli security personnel before being granted access to the Temple Mount.
PA daily: Israelis "have no historic connection to this land"
Source: Official PA daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Nov. 27, 2014
"The Jewish State did not actually exist in the long historic sense as the Kingdom of Judah, the location of which I do not know; and if it did exist, it was [only] for a limited period. The Jewish Khazars had a state, which was the accidental result of the encounter between two cultures – Byzantine Christianity and the Islamic Abbasids. After a consultation between their elders, the Khazar tribes decided to adopt a different religion, in order to be able to live peacefully with their Muslim and Christian neighbors – for had they adopted Islam, this would have meant war with Christianity, while had they converted to Christianity, it would have spelt war with Islam. Thus, the Khazar state was created out of a conflict between two religions, and it quickly collapsed, while the Khazar Jews scattered throughout Central Asia. The majority of the Jews of Israel are their descendants, and they have no historic connection to this land [Palestine/Israel]."
Jewish Temple never existed and Jews never had any connection with the land of Israel
Source: Official PA daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Nov. 24, 2014
Op-ed by Fatah Revolutionary Council member Bakr Abu Bakr, regular columnist for official PA dail
"If we as Palestinians, Arab and Muslims, do not disown the historic myths [prevalent] among us that is, the false Biblical stories about Jerusalem – what they call the 'People of Israel,' the house of worship or the Temple, and about their [past] presence on our Arab land in Palestine – then what can we expect the result to be? The myths about the redeeming prophet (and there is no prophet after Muhammad, peace be upon Him) [all parenthesis in source] will naturally prevail, as will the myths that the Israelis (the Jews living in the State of 'Israel' today, whose origins can be traced to the Khazars, Russians, Ukrainians and Europeans, and who borrowed their name from an extinct Yemenite tribe) have a 'country' and that they were a 'nation,' and that the Temple – which actually never existed anywhere in the area – was situated at the site of Al-Aqsa, surrounding it or at a distance of 20 to 200 kilometers from it.
The political, diplomatic, legal, or even the military struggle or the [struggle] on the ground, are not sufficient to refute the narrative that has been perfectly constructed since the 19th century by imperialism and its ambitions, in cooperation with the Zionist mentality of darkness, extremism and racism… and we are the first to have been convinced by them, while we merely argue over tiny details! For example: 'Yes, they have been here (in Palestine) – but not for long' or 'Yes, they had princedoms or kingdoms, but not like these!' And the evident truth now is that they were never here, and that even those who are here now, who are different, and the ancient ones, whose stories are documented in books, were never [present] in this Arab and Islamic land."
PA daily op-ed: "Palestine was never… the setting for any Temple or the other Biblical myths"
Source: Official PA daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Nov. 23, 2014
Op-ed by Fatah Revolutionary Council member Bakr Abu Bakr, regular columnist for the official PA daily:
"Should we strive for the militant way of thinking, according to which we cannot relinquish even a single grain of [our] demands or of Palestinian land, on which no non-Arab race has ever tread without being driven out? Palestine was never the cradle of any of the prophets of Israel (the extinct Yemenite Arab tribe, to which the Jews living in Palestine today bear no relation) [parenthesis in source], nor did it ever serve as the setting for any temple or the other Biblical myths. How will we correct history and turn it [Palestine] into clear fact? Will we bear on our shoulders today the trust of the Arab, Islamic and Christian [character] of Palestine through the power of thought, history, facts and the true scientific narrative versus the false Israeli narrative, which is full of fairy tales? ... We are at the beginning of the path started by the founder of the Palestinian state in the 18th century, Daher Al-Omar Al-Zaidani, followed by Yasser Arafat, and the Arab Canaanites and purely Arab and Islamic history that preceded them."
Note: Daher Al-Omar Al-Zaidani, an Arab native of Ottoman-controlled Galilee, was the independent ruler of Northern Palestine in the mid-18th century. Al-Omar founded the modern city of Haifa and fortified numerous cities, creating – with foreign assistance – an autonomous territory that was legitimized by the Ottoman authorities, who awarded him the title of "Sheikh of the Galilee". Remembered for his relatively enlightened economic policies and tolerance toward Jews and Christians, Al-Omar is often cited as a pioneer of Arab liberation from foreign occupation and – by some contemporary authors – as a forerunner of Palestinian nationalism.
Abbas' advisor: Jewish Jerusalem is a "fairy tale"
Source: WAFA news agency, Nov. 23, 2014
"Mahmoud Al-Habbash, the Supreme Shari'ah Judge and Mahmoud Abbas' Advisor on Religious and Islamic Affairs, said that Arabs and Muslims around the globe, especially those with foreign citizenship, must go to the Al-Aqsa Mosque and come together to Jerusalem to support the resolve of its residents. During a political forum held at the embassy of the State of Palestine in Algeria, Al-Habbash said: 'Our people is now in the last stage of a war of existence and self-coercion against the occupation, which is seeking in any way possible to eradicate our identity, force a Caesarian birth of a Jewish entity and clone an illegal entity at our expense.'… In addition, he emphasized that the occupation – which thinks it has succeeded in winning the geographic war with [its] racist fences and roadblocks and that it will have the last word in the fairy tale of Jewish Jerusalem by taking over the Al-Aqsa Mosque – must be opposed."
Israel's claim that a Temple stood on the site of Al-Aqsa Mosque is false
Source: Official PA daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Nov. 16, 2014
This article was published during a period of high tension in Jerusalem. On Oct. 22 and Nov. 5, 2014, two separate terror attacks took place in which Palestinians drove their cars into pedestrians in Jerusalem, killing 4 and injuring dozens. In addition, on Oct. 29, 2014, Islamic Jihad member Mutaz Hijazi attempted to assassinate Rabbi Yehuda Glick, a prominent activist working to assure rights for Jews to visit and pray on the Temple Mount.
"Fatah spokesman Ahmad Assaf said that [PA] President Mahmoud Abbas had been leading a fierce battle to defend the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the [Israeli] attempts to Judaize and take control of it, and to realize [Palestinian] freedom and independence and obtain a decision on setting a timetable for ending the occupation… Assaf added that the occupation government has lost its senses and is trying to change the existing situation at the Al-Aqsa Mosque. In addition, he warned of its actions aimed at dividing the Al-Aqsa Mosque according to place and time, and of its old claims that the Al-Aqsa Mosque was built over the ruins of the 'Temple Mount' – a claim they have not succeeded in proving over all these years."
Note: The physical division and division according to time refers to a proposed law (May 2013) being reviewed in Israeli Parliament that would allow for both Jews and Muslims to pray on the Temple Mount. The law seeks to implement separate prayer times for Muslims and Jews at the site.

"The Supreme Muslim Council and the Council for Holy Places and Islamic Affairs in Occupied Jerusalem emphasized yesterday [Nov. 12, 2014] that the media reports, according to which the so-called Israeli 'Minister of Internal Security' would act together with the Israeli police to install electronic gates at the outer entrances to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, signal the takeover, in practice, of Al-Aqsa. The Council emphasized that the Al-Aqsa Mosque is an Islamic mosque, and by divine decree intended for Muslims alone… and [that] its [ownership] is not shared with anyone. Furthermore, [it noted that] the Jews have no connection to it, and that their arrogant power will not buy them any right to it."
PA daily: "The alleged 'Temple'" is "myths and lies" and "no proof [of its existence] has ever been found"

"Fourteen years ago, the Al-Aqsa Intifada (i.e., PA terror campaign 2000-2005) erupted – to be more precise, on Sept. 28, 2000, after the Palestinian masses in general, and in Jerusalem in particular, took to the streets to challenge the criminal [Israeli Prime Minister Ariel] Sharon, who had attempted to desecrate the Al-Aqsa Mosque with a group from among the herds of settlers and extremists – those who even today live in illusions of the myths and lies about the alleged 'Temple,' of which no proof has ever been found, neither below or around the Al-Aqsa Mosque, or even in all of Palestine. This has been confirmed by scholars and researchers, including Jewish scholars, who have used all possible means [to find proof of the Temple's existence] – to no avail."
Abbas' advisor: Western Wall "is ours and will remain ours"

Abbas' advisor on Religious and Islamic Affairs, Mahmoud Al-Habbash:
"All of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, including its plazas, stone benches, prayer niches and walls, including the Al-Buraq Wall (i.e., the Western Wall of the Temple Mount), including the blessed Al-Buraq Wall - all these are
to us (i.e., an inalienable religious endowment in Islamic law). All this is
land (i.e., land belonging to Muslims) and no one is permitted to sell it or negotiate over it or forfeit it. It is ours and will remain ours. The occupation is the one that will leave."

Note: Islam's Prophet Muhammad is said to have ridden during his Night Journey from Mecca to "al aqsa mosque", i.e., "the farthest mosque" (Quran, Sura 17), and there tied his miraculous flying steed named Al-Buraq to a "stone" or a "rock." (Jami` at-Tirmidhi, Book 47, Hadith 3424). In the 1920's, Arab Mufti Haj Amin Al-Husseini decided to identify the Western Wall of the Temple in Jerusalem as that "rock" or "stone," and since then Muslims refer to the Western Wall as the "Al-Buraq Wall."

"Mahmoud Al-Habbash, the Supreme Shari'ah Judge and Mahmoud Abbas' Advisor on Religious and Islamic Affairs, said that the complete closing of the Al-Aqsa Mosque for the first time [since 1967] was planned by the official establishment of the occupation state. In addition, he said that 'the claim of the attempted murder of the extremist Yehuda Glick, who engineered the daily invasions of the Al-Aqsa Mosque's plazas and calls for the construction of the alleged Temple over the ruins of the Mosque, was the excuse needed to carry out this premeditated plan to divide Al-Aqsa and permit the Jews to pray in it just like the Muslims. This constitutes the first step toward the complete Judaization [of the Mosque] and toward the banning of Muslims from going to it.'"

Our presence in Jerusalem has not ceased for 5,000 years. Nations and occupations have passed through, and colonialism, whether brief or long. It came and left, but the people of Jerusalem stayed. These transients will move on, while the people of Jerusalem will stay. They have no place in Jerusalem. Jerusalem is ours, not theirs."
Proposed bill allowing Jews to pray on Temple Mount is part of "scheme" to "destroy" Al-Aqsa and build the "alleged Temple"

"[During its weekly meeting] the [PA] government warned of the Israeli Parliament's decision to vote on a bill to divide the Al-Aqsa Mosque according to areas and times, by equating the Jews' right to worship in the Noble Sanctuary (i.e., the Temple Mount) to that of the Muslims and assigning fixed areas and times for prayers and religious ceremonies. This bill bars the Palestinians from demonstrating and protesting against [the division] by employing [the threat of] punishment. If it passes in the Israeli Parliament and is ratified, the Al-Aqsa Mosque will enter a new phase of Judaization, more dangerous than previous ones. [This] will pave the way for strengthening [Israeli] control over it and for realizing the scheme to destroy it and construct the 'alleged Temple' in its place."

PA daily op-ed: "The 'Jews'" have no right to the Al-Aqsa Mosque
Source: Official PA daily, Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Oct. 15, 2014
Op-ed by Omar Hilmi Al-Ghoul, columnist for official PA daily:
"Since the start of the occupation of the territories of the Palestinian state on June 4, 1967, East Jerusalem in general, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque in particular, have played a central role in [Israel's] Judaization and destruction scheme. The fire [in the Al-Aqsa Mosque] on August 21, 1968 (sic., the fire was in 1969), was nothing other than the beginning of a long, multi-stage process aimed toward arriving at what is being prepared at the present political moment. The Netanyahu government, the 19th Knesset (Israeli Parliament), the Judaizing Zionist organizations and the herds of settlers are systematically acting to divide the Al-Aqsa Mosque according to time and place. in addition, they are acting to lead world public opinion astray [by claiming] that the 'Jews' have a right to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, and that the so-called Third Temple is 'located' in the same place – the site of one of the most important holy places in Islam. Furthermore, they are also acting to prepare world public opinion for the complete destruction of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, the annexation of all of East Jerusalem by the Israeli ethnic cleansing state, the advancement of the option of transferring the Palestinians and the derailing of the two-state solution according to the June 4, 1967 borders."
The fire in the Al-Aqsa Mosque – In 1969, Michael Rohan, a deranged Australian Christian, set fire to the Al-Aqsa Mosque. For years, the Palestinian Authority has falsely accused Israel of setting the fire.
The physical division and division according to time refers to a proposed law (May 2013) being reviewed in Israeli Parliament that would allow for both Jews and Muslims to pray on the Temple Mount. The law seeks to implement separate prayer times for Muslims and Jews at the site.

"Every day, we find these [settlers and extremists] trying to enter the [Al-Aqsa] Mosque by any means, in order to establish facts on the ground as they wish. The fact Israel is trying to establish on the ground is the division of the Al-Aqsa Mosque according to time and place, with the empty excuse that it [Israel] has a claim to it. These are empty and false claims, and a falsification of the history we all know."

text: MPI on Multicore Architectures using MPICH2 Darius Buntinas – firstname.lastname@example.com Outline Using MPI on Multicore Systems Single-Threaded MPI Programming – MPICH2 Multicore Optimizations Multithreaded MPI Programming Allocating Processes/Threads to Cores Binding Processes/Threads to Specific Cores Application Study on Core Binding and I/O Interrupts Profiling, Tracing and Debugging Tools 2 Typical Ways to Use MPI on Multicore Systems process One MPI process per core – Each MPI process is a single thread node Dual-core processor One MPI process per node – MPI processes are multithreaded – One thread per core – aka Hybrid model Some combination of the two 3 Scalability MPI can scale to very large systems – E.g. MPICH2 on 65K dual-core BlueGene/L nodes But will an existing application scale? – If it runs on 4K single-core nodes, it will run fine on 1K four-core nodes – But will it run on 4K four-core nodes? Hybrid programming model can help improve scalability – Shared-memory/threads programming on nodes – MPI across nodes 4 Single-Threaded MPI Programming Pros – Same paradigm developers are used to – Existing codes can make use of multicore – Easier to debug Cons – There may be a better shared-memory algorithm – Possible duplication of large arrays 5 MPICH2 Features to Support Multicore Architechtures Nemesis: New "multimethod" communication subsystem for MPICH2 – Optimized intranode and internode communication Shared memory Network Process 0 Process 1 Process 2 Node 0 Node 1 6 MPICH2 Multicore Optimizations Nemesis uses lock-free queues – Scalable • One receive queue per process – Low latency • Implemented using atomic assembly instructions: no lock overhead • Optimized to reduce cache misses MPICH2 performance on a 2.6 GHz dual Clovertown – 214 ns zero-byte one way MPI message latency • < 500 ns for 512 byte 7 MPICH2 Large Message Optimizations Copying large messages through a queue may not be optimal – Bandwidth and CPU utilization Mechanisms exist to avoid the extra copy for large messages – Directly access the other process's address space • Windows allows this, or pcontrol in Unix – Kernel copy – Use a NIC Nemesis's LMT API allows implementers to take advantage of bulk transfer mechanisms – Currently: uses double buffered copy • Good for bandwidth, but uses two cores MPICH2 performance on a 2.6 GHz dual Clovertown – 2 GBps throughput for large messages (5 GBps when in cache) 8 Multithreaded MPI Programming Pros – Hybrid programming model – Use shared-memory algorithms where appropriate – One copy of large array shared by all threads Cons – In general threaded programming can be difficult to write, debug and verify (e.g., using pthreads) OpenMP and UPC make threaded programming easier – Language constructs to parallelize loops, etc. 9 MPI Supported Thread Levels MPI_THREAD_SINGLE – Only one user thread is allowed MPI_THREAD_FUNNELED – May have one or more threads, but only the "main" thread may make MPI calls MPI_THREAD_SERIALIZED – May have one or more threads, but only one thread can make MPI calls at a time. It is the application developer's responsibility to guarantee this. MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE – May have one or more threads. Any thread can make MPI calls at any time (with certain conditions). MPICH2 supports MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE 10 Using Multiple Threads in MPI The main thread must call MPI_Init_thread() – App requests a thread level – MPI returns the thread level actually provided – These values need not be the same on every process – Hint: Request only the level you need to avoid unnecessary overhead for higher thread levels. MPI_Init_thread() – Called in place of MPI_Init() – Only the main thread should call this – The main thread (and only the main thread) must call MPI_Finalize • there is no MPI_Finalize_thread() MPI does not provide routines to create threads – That's left to the user • E.g., use pthreads OpenMP, etc 11 MPI Thread Programming Caveats Multiple threads cannot block waiting on the same request – MPI_Test from multiple threads is OK, but not MPI_Wait A request can only be completed once Collective calls on the same communicator must be called in the same order at all processes – If collectives are called on different threads, the app developer must guarantee the correct order – Collectives on different communicators can be reordered Don't cancel a thread while it's in an MPI call 12 Allocating Processes/Threads to Cores Typically: one process/thread per core It may be beneficial to oversubscribe in some cases – If a process/thread is blocking most of the time – Examples: • Communication thread with compute threads • Master/slave – Master process distributes work then waits for results Caution: Some MPI implementations actively poll while waiting for a message – Comm. Thread would compete for cycles with compute threads 13 Polling vs Blocking Polling gives better communication performance – But burns a processor without getting work done Blocking introduces additional overhead – System call overhead • By the process blocking • By the process signaling blocked process – Context switch How to reduce performance impact of blocking? How to block waiting for a message from either shared-memory or network? 14 Blocking in MPICH2 Two options we're evaluating Option A – Poll for a while, then yield() – Lower communication overhead – Can still check network and shared-memory – But still running once per timeslice, many such threads can add up Option B – Poll for a while, then wait on a semaphore – Better core utilization: we're really blocking now – But sender must signal a semaphore: system call – If we're blocking on a semaphore, how do we check the network? • Create an internal thread which blocks on the network 15 Binding Processes/Threads to Specific Cores Processes/threads can be bound to one or more cores Which core to choose? For best communication, locate threads that do a lot of communication close together – On same node processor cores sharing L2 cache But cores on the same processor share cache and pins to frontside bus – Might do better splitting up threads that do a lot of memory accesses Bind the communication thread to one of the cores for the compute threads of the same process I/O interrupt handling is statically mapped to one core 16 Effects of Statically Mapped I/O Interrupt Handling Interrupt-based networks increase I/O interrupts – E.g., TCP as opposed to iWARP or InfiniBand Interrupt handling affects communication performance G.

"In Philly, we play both types of music. Hip hop AND indie rock! No, but seriously, you guys couldn't find a few more MCs and DJs to contribute?"
"Stop hating. There isn't even an indie rock station on main stream radio in Philly. Philadelphia is known for Soul music and Hip-Hop. And more music industry DJs have come out of Philly than any other city in the world. Whether it's Josh Wink, Diplo or Jazzy Jeff, we have dominated DJ culture for the last 30 years."
"I call it as I see it, and I see a music scene far more diverse in this city than was given credit by these so-called "taste makers". Maybe if there was someone over 35 contributing to PW, we'd hear about it. Oh, and if you're actually under the impression that there isn't an indie rock station in Philly, there's a little station called WXPN. You should tune in sometime! You'll get all the Avett Brothers and Dr. Dog your little eardrums can handle. (But only if Pitchfork says it's okay)"

Not your run of the mill restaurant. Always something new often a little different. A little out of the way but that is part of it's charm.

This restaurant is perfect for all ages. Kids will immensely enjoy watching horses exercise in the arena while they eat their meal. Adults will also find the horses entertaining. The arena and restaurant are separated with a glass wall, so little children are able to see below as well. The surrounding area is serene and peaceful because of the mountain... More
we were having lunch when the word came to evacuate as the ranch is downstream from the neighborhood that is now a parks & recreation area. Please drive by it while you are up Hwy 530. It reminds me of Mt St Helens on a smaller scale. Everyone was very calm & business like as they hurried the horses out... More
We enjoyed the food, but the horses were the best part. They were auditioning for a medieval show when we were there, with jousting & costumes...it was great.
The beautiful Northwest is scenic, wet and full of huge surprises! This little GEM of a place was a complete Shock to find. Let's start with the arrival ~ holy smokes the grounds are gorgeous! This is a huge barn that has a fantastic Resturant and bar attached with views of the entire arena. Totally decked out in oak floors,... More
Great time was had by our group. We ordered the fried green bean appetizer. Very good. We also ordered the Duff burger, prime rib sliders, and loaded potato skins. Pear cake was dessert. Everything was great. The burger was seasoned just right. Service was great, our waitress was very helpful and let us sample a beer before ordering one. I... More
If you want to travel to see the site of the tragic mudslide which claimed the lives of 43 persons last March 22nd, the place to stop for a meal either before or after is the Restaurant at the Rhodes River Ranch near Oso, WA. As you drive into the beautifully tree lined entrance, you will be very impressed with... More
Yikes! The Ranch is beautiful, but the restaurant is a separate entity and in need of change. We went to the area for my birthday, and spent the night in Darrington. On the way up, we stopped off at the Ranch for a cocktail with full plans to return for dinner later on. Although the place wasn't crowded at all,... More
We have heard of the jousting match shows, but didn't know where to go to watch one. The Seattle Knights show gave us an idea of what mid evil times could have looked like. All the characters were great. You could tell they were having so much fun! I think the gypsy was my fav character. You couldn't help but... More
Upon visiting the Ranch, we fell in love with the up-keep grounds and facilities. We decided to give their restaurant a chance too. We decided to start with appetizers. We ordered calamaris. Hint: do NOT order calamaris or any seafood at this place. Calamaris came out wet-looking with no crunch and ZERO salt or pepper on it. Slimy calamaris do... More

Oh when was that?
This is the first year for Analog Photo Day. We have launch it 3 months ago. Of course, we hope to have many photographies but this year the purpose is also to see how it works what are the difficulties etc. We also want to make an exposition with the best rated photos.
The objective is to create a yearly APD like the fantastic success of Pinhole Day.
Feel free to have a look and rate the photographies.
I did too...
I signed up and did do some shooting...just need to get in the darkroom. Hopefully today.
It seems that some peoples have difficulties to upload their photography.
If this is the case, for capacity reasons, the maximum size is 700x700 and 200 ko. So first check that the dimensions are good and do not hesitate to liaise with use if you have problem.
Well, I just made two attempts. First with a file that is 610 x 610 pixels, 160 K and was refused. I then cut it down to 600x600 and 143K and it still was refused. I suppose I could chop it down further via size and compression, but according to what you are saying, I would expect it to work.
Any ideas?
Sorry for that, obvioulsy we have a problem. And we do not understand why. We made a test before the 08/08/08 whith several files, none of us experience a problem.
I drop you an email with the email adress of our webmaster. Send him your file he will upload it.
If other peoples have the same problem, please leave a message here or drop me an email.
I've just tried to put another photo on Anapo photo day, but it's refused my files, the picture is in the right measure less di 600x600 and the file is 102k and the system says that I haven't enought space on my "disk".
How many pictures could we put on the system? and the 200k is the maximum space on the disk or anly for file.
You can only upload one photo. This is the same principle as the Pinhole day, one day, one photo.
The picture you have already upload is really nice. I am very surprise by the note it does not reflect the quality of the picture (the size on the screen probably does not gives the real effect).

Posted: June 7, 2013
I joined my local golf course 4 years ago this month and have been an avid player ever since. Although gradually improving I am still a high handicapper. My drive has always been the best part of my game but, over the last 10 days or so, it has almost completely deserted me when playing away. After a particularly difficult day on Wednesday I went to my driving range yesterday and successfully hit a few balls. Knowing that I was due to play in a singles matchplay knockout tournament today I then went for a practice round. I hit my titelist velocity with my 5 wood which sailed towards the hole and then disappeared. The guy on the second tee came racing up to me with a high five and we both walked towards the pin to retrieve the ball. I was completely amazed! I now have a certificate from my club to prove that I actually did it! In addition I played and won my match today 4 up with 3 to play. Wonderful. Cath Greenwood

Congratulations Cath!
That's a great double-hit for you.

Re: Random Posts/miscellaneous/anything Petra :)
A few halftime thoughts: Even if they pull this one out,RG3 and the Skins simply don't have enough defense to be a serious SB contender.They may pull a surprise...even TWO...in the playoffs,but they still have a modest ceiling.Likewise,the young Bucs seem to be on the right track,yet their fits of immaturity and sloppy play prevent them from being a legit contender....Once more,Atlanta just DOES NOT IMPRESS ME VERY MUCH.Yeah,I know that Carolina's not nearly as bad as their record looks,but they're not so good as to just bitch-slap Atlanta all over the field.This is NOT a championship-caliber effort...looks like the same ol' Falcons to me: Solid team---and NO real threat to win a SB.
Cincinnati isn't as raw as the Skins or Bucs,and they have a nice core of rising stars,but I've seen so many Marvin Lewis teams self-destruct in the last near-decade that it's one of those believe-it-when-I-see-it situations....Steeler fans shouldn't worry too much with the Choke-Expert Chargers in front;however,the Steelers' line hasn't protected Ben too well,from what I've seen so far,and that'll eventually catch up to them in the playoffs.....Andrew Luck likely will have at least a respectable career,yet I doubt that he's scaring def. co-ordinators at this point.It's all well and good when you can light up weak defenses such as GB,Detroit or Tennessee...the playoffs will be different,though,and Luck has already shown some unimpressive outings vs. sieve defenses such as Buffalo's and NE's....We'll se how he does NEXT year when co-ordinators have had an offseason to prepare schemes against him

Cymarshall Law - Almost Home
Artist: Cymarshall Law
Producer: The Beatnikz
Album: Freedom Express Line
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 17 votes )
Considering we haven't heard from Booth fave Cymarshall Law since he jumped on board the Freedom Express Line with production crew The Beatnikz back in August, fans may well be wondering where the man's travels have taken him. Well, those craving an update from the freestyle series alum will be happy to hear that, though his journey's been a long one, he's Almost Home. On this new single, Lil-Jay and Frank Blank's quietly determined piano groove (I feel like I should recognize that sample – anyone?) sets the stage for a little lyrical soul-searching. Though Law adopts a more subdued delivery than usual (relatively speaking) as he addresses his conflicted relationship with his past, his complex, wordplay-laced style comes through loud and clear in lines like "If home where the heart is, unless I'm wrong, it means I live on each page that I write on." Like what you're hearing? In addition to picking up a copy of Freedom Express Line, released August 31, and available now online, fans should check out the official video, shot in Paris, France.

Obamacare regs: The paper skyscraper
Tweet |
**Written by Doug Powers
Yesterday, Sen. Mitch McConnell's office tweeted a photo of a print copy of all the Obamacare regs to date:
That stack appears to be just a couple feet short of being required to have a flashing aircraft warning light at the top.
Warner Todd Huston has the dimensions:
This is over 20,000 pages and measures 7′ 2.5″. These are all the Obamacare regulations published in the Federal Register up through last week. Then last Friday they added another 828 pages.
Why is there a red ribbon around on that stack of regulations? I assume because it was Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats' "Christmas present" to the American people:

To design 1D Gabor filter and apply it to image.
| Watch this File
Recent studies on Mathematical modeling of visual cortical cells [Kulikowski/Marcelja/Bishop:1982] suggest a tuned band pass filter bank structure. These filters are found to have Gaussian transfer functions in the frequency domain. Thus, taking the Inverse Fourier Transform of this transfer function we get a filter characteristics closely resembling to the Gabor filters. The Gabor filter is basically a Gaussian (with variances sx and sy along x and y-axes respectively) modulated by a complex sinusoid (with centre frequencies U and V along x and y-axes respectively).
Gabor filters are used mostly in shape detectin and feature extractin in image processing. 1D gabor filtering reduces the filtering operations from O(M2N2) to O(MN2).
How about a 2D gabor filter ~~ How can it implement on the image?

TV Use in Nespelem, WA
There's a lot more to cable TV in Nespelem, WA than great programming. Digital cable is easy to connect to all of your TVs, which is great because 1/3 of all Americans, or 68 in Nespelem, have 4 or more televisions. Thanks in part to cable technology, DVR use has grown nearly 4% since 2006, and now 7% of America's total TV viewing is time-shifted content. Cable also provides high-speed Internet. In fact, 72% of Americans bundle their Internet and cable services. Which is good, because 48% of cable TV subscribers stream some of their content online. In Nespelem that makes 149 residents who bundle their cable TV subscriptions and Internet packages, and 99 who use that Internet to stream TV content online.

She's not my girl
But she loves like she is
Greets me with a smile
I lead her into my room
As she gets ready
To stay for a while
I examine her body
Flaws, non-existent
As she lays on my bed
Just like a human
She kisses my lips
The lie is easily read
She's not my girl
And she's not human
But I do know what she is
She's just a whore
And nothing more
Who can lie through a kiss
Late that night
I call her again
Somewhat miss that sin
The phone clicks by accident
I can hear the whore
Once again with him
I kind of like this poem
It's unique.
It has a different feel.

Dolly Sods Wilderness is a 19.4 mile loop trail located near Cabins, West Virginia and is rated as moderate. The trail is primarily used for hiking and is accessible year-round.

Very Beautiful park, with some awesome spots. Only bad thing is some of the trails aren't the greatest marked and could possibly get lost.
David Coleman (55)

The trails I took were the worse I have ever hiked! They went from hiking on a stream bed to sloshing through marsh land.Obviously whoever built the trails has no idea how to build a trail. Most of it is highly eroded becoming a stream bed in many cases. It is clear from the well worn side trails that being wet or marshy is more the rule that the exception.
Views are very nice and landscape is interesting and varied. I wish the trails were at least average which would motivate me to give it a higher score.

The views and varying terrain are amazing. A little busy on Memorial Day, but was a great trail for a training hike for our Venturing Crew. Two wet stream crossing / fords helped make the weekend high adventure. Good opportunity to work on your land navigation skills. Cairns mark the trails, and there are trail signs at most of the key intersections, but the trails are not blazed.

We did Rocky Ridge Trail which is in North Dolly Sods just outside of the Wilderness area. Great trail. The large rock formations made us feel like we were in Arizona. The hike went along a mountain ridge the whole time so great views which opened to wide open plains on top of a mountain with rocks everywhere and mountain views on each side. It was one of our top hikes.

NL East shake-up
Making sense of New York's weekend sweep of Atlanta
It's far too early to get worked up about the season. Everything we thought we knew might change in the next six months, as it frequently does, and a three-game winning streak is a blip on the radar. Just look back to last season, when, after losing on Opening Day, the New York Mets promptly reeled off three straight wins. Later in April, they won six in a row. During the next five months, they won at least three games in a row on 10 separate occasions. Yet they finished with a 77-85 record.
Still, it's hard not to be encouraged by what we saw from the Mets in these first three games, as they swept the Atlanta Braves over the weekend. And if you're a Braves fan, you have to be at least a bit concerned by what you saw. The voters of the ESPN.com Power Rankings were clearly moved by the results of the series, as they now have the Mets at No. 17, ahead of the Braves at No. 23. Sounds crazy, yes, but if a year ago today you had said: "The Arizona Diamondbacks are the best team in the NL West," you would have been laughed at. But it turned out to be true in 2011. So for 2012, is there a chance the Mets are actually the better team?
