The Ballad of Nessie


The Ballad of Nessie is a 2011 traditionally animated short film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. It was directed by Stevie Wermers-Skelton and Kevin Deters, and produced by the team behind "How to Hook Up Your Home Theater". The short, narrated by Billy Connolly, is a Disney adaptation of the origin of the Loch Ness Monster, Nessie. A creature named Nessie lives happily in a small pond with her friend MacQuack, a rubber duck. When a rich developer takes the pond and land surrounding it to

In the US it accompanied the theatrical release of "Winnie the Pooh", which premiered on July 15, 2011. The short was released on October 25, 2011, as a bonus feature on the Blu-ray, DVD, and digital download release of "Winnie the Pooh". "The Ballad of Nessie" was

Finally, Nessie loses all hope and starts crying for days, weeks, and months. When she cannot cry anymore, she finds that her tears have created the Loch, a new home for her and MacQuack. During the five small credits it is shown that the golf course has also been flooded, with the developer and his assistants using

. SEPs send signaling messages to other SEPs, but the messages are normally routed via the SEP's adjacent STPs. An STP's main function is to identify the best path for two SEPs to communicate. A typical application would be for two SEPs to agree on the use of a shared data path (e.g., using ISUP to initiate a voice call between a user on one SEP and a user on the second SEP). In this way, STPs route signaling messages (for starting, maintaining or finishing any kind of

A signaling message typically never goes directly from a given SEP to the destination SEP: the message would normally have to pass through the initiating SEP's adjacent STP so that it can be routed to the destination SEP. In some applications, however, SEPs might be directly connected with signaling links; this would typically be done to enhance robustness or performance between two critical SEPs. Such mesh network configurations are also common in Europe, where STPs have not
