Today Microsoft starts its new patching policy for sure variations of Home windows desktop and server, promising a much more consistent and simplified servicing expertise. Having said that, it means a lot more choices for IT administrators.
The adjust affects Windows seven SP1, buy cheap microsoft office, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, and Home windows Server 2012 R2 updates.
Inside of a blog a number of days ago staffer Michael Niehaus gave a lengthy and detailed explanation of what's happening. Briefly, there will be three monthly releases:
a single update within the common Patch Tuesdays containing all new stability fixes for that thirty day period, to be published to Home windows Server Update Solutions (WSUS), where by it could possibly be accessed by other applications like ConfigMgr, and also the Home windows Update Catalog, where it could possibly be downloaded for use with other equipment or procedures. This package will not be made available to PCs that talk to Windows Update.
only one update on Patch Tuesdays referred to as the "monthly rollup" containing all new safety fixes for that thirty day period (a similar kinds included during the security-only update introduced within the very same time), likewise as fixes from all previous monthly rollups. This will be published to cheap office 2016 Update for consumer PCs, WSUS, as well as the Home windows Update Catalog. The initial monthly rollup produced in October will only have new security updates from October, as well since the non-security updates from September;for these who like looking ahead to the 3rd Tuesday with the thirty day period there will certainly be a "preview rollup" with a preview of latest non-security fixes that could be involved from the up coming monthly rollup, also as fixes from all previous monthly rollup.
"Some compact company and mid-market providers rely on Microsoft administration resources," commented Jon Olsik, an analyst at Organization Tactic Group. "For organizations that fit this model, Microsoft patch management is actually a superior addition since it aligns with their current knowledge and procedures. Significant organizations is not going to come across this attractive because they have constructed their patch administration procedures around unique vendor technologies."
The security-only and monthly rollups will contain fixes for the online world Explorer version supported for each running system, Microsoft adds. For Windows 7, Windows 8.one, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Home windows Server 2012 R2, that is World wide web Explorer 11; for Windows Server 2012, that is World-wide-web Explorer 10. The security-only, monthly rollup, and preview rollup will not install or up grade to these variations of Web Explorer if they are not now present.
Directors that use WSUS need to make certain which the "Security Updates" classification from the "Products and Classifications" options page has long been selected, to ensure that the both the security-only update and monthly rollup on Update Tuesday are synchronized. To synchronize the optional preview rollup, also ensure the "Updates" classification is selected.
Also ensure that assistance for "express set up files" from the WSUS "Update Files and Languages" options page continues to be enabled.
Microsoft suggests existing automatic approval rules for cheap office professional plus 2016 or Home windows 8.one will keep on to work as is. But considering that each the security-only update and monthly rollup are each classified as "Security Updates," rules that specify this classification will approve the two. Admins may possibly also manually approve just the monthly rollup.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I am one of 5 named in a trust and would like to see all financial records (earnings credited and debits) since the POA has been handling the estate. She said she doesn't have to produce them or give any information to the others on the trust. Do I have a legal right to see them, if so, how do I go about asking for them? This is in the state of Michigan.
You should ask this question of a MI attorney, but as far as Florida Trust Code goes, the Trustee has a fiduciary duty to give an annual accounting of the trust to the beneficiaries. If you believe that the Trustee is not performing their duties correctly, you should seek the advice of a MI trusts and estates attorney who can review your concerns. From a brief look at the recently enacted (2009) Michigan Trust Code, it appears that your Trustee is not complying with their statutory duties. Take a look at (google) MCL Section 700.7814, which describes the duty of the Trustee to keep qualified beneficiaries informed as to the administration of the trust. There are also remedies that can be pursued if the Trustee is in violation of their duties to the Trust and the beneficiaries. If you think that is happening, seek the advice of a MI trusts attorney right away. Silence may be assumed to be consent.

I agree with the previous poster who suggested you meet with a trust and estates attorney in Michigan. If the trust were governed by florida law, the trust code provides certain procedures to prevent this situation from happening. You also need to clarify how you are named in the trust. Are you a qualified beneficiary? You should definitely consult with an attorney in Michigan who can guide you.Ask a similar question
While I agree with my colleagues with regard to a trust, I do not believe this is what the Asker wanted to know. It appears from my reading of the facts that Asker wants to know if the agent under the POA can be forced to account to the beneficiaries of the Trust for management prior to the death of the trust grantor.
Michigan's POA Statute is even newer than its Trust Code, having just gone into effect October 1, of this year. The new statute requires the agent to maintain records of all actions as agent and to provide them, upon order of a court. Depending on the terms of the POA, the agent may have more duties, but on the face of things, I do not believe the agent would owe a duty to provide this information to the beneficiaries of the trust, absent a court order. Having said that, failure to do so might be an implicit suggestion that something was done improperly. If I were acting as agent, I do not think I would have a problem turning this information over.

a PSC Research Project [ARCHIVE DISPLAY]
Investigators: Jose Arturo Bauermeister, Rachel C. Snow
This proposal from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, responds to a special invitation by the Ford Foundation. Using a research-to-practice approach, our goal is to examine how structural (e.g., economic disadvantage, racial segregation, and sexual prejudice) and cultural (e.g., HIV stigma, medical mistrust, and masculinity) factors create community barriers that aggravate the sexual rights of Latino & Black young men who have sex with men (YMSM; ages 18 to 29) living in the Detroit Metro Area (DMA). Project findings will be translated into policy deliverables and disseminated to local, state, and national stakeholders invested in improving the rights of racial/ethnic minorities and YMSM living in DMA.
This project is embedded into a larger network of academic-community partnerships seeking to address structural and community barriers in Detroit. Our project is a collaboration between faculty from the Department of Health Behavior and Health Education and AIDS service organizations (ASO) serving DMA youth and MSM. Pooling resources from various research centers and on-going studies focused on HIV/AIDS risk reduction among youth, the project is well-poised to identify critical policy opportunities. Alongside our community partners, we will provide concrete policy recommendations that promote the rights and social well-being of ethnic minority YMSM, including how policy may optimize on-going psychosocial efforts for ethnic minority YMSM living in DMA.

Finding where you are in the world, and where you want to go!
Tackk is the newest format to
creatively share anything on the web.
What is it?
A Global Positioning System (GPS) is a portable device that connects to the satellites so that the exact time and location can be detected. A GPS can also help to plan routes for a person to take, as well as help orienteer through various environments. Essentially, a GPS is a glorified, electronic compass that is easy to read, understand, and use.
How can it be used in the classroom?
A GPS can be used in many ways within the classroom; the most common use is for Orienteering, Mapping, and Geological Mapping. There are many activities that can use GPS' and can add to the activity to make it easier, and more interactive. During orienteering, the student can go on a Scavenger Hunt and must use the GPS to find the different locations needed to finish the Scavenger Hunt. For mapping, the student has to create a map of a certain environment (like the school yard). They can use the GPS' to help them see the actual distance between certain points, and then make the map to scale to allow for a more accurate result. Lastly, like the mapping activity above, the students can do Geological Map by using the GPS to detect the distance between different points so that the scale of the map is more acurate.

Links are the most important elements of a website or a webpage. The website can not be properly navigated without adding links. HTML links are those elements which take a visitor from one page to another. The simple syntax of using links inside webpages is as follow:
Go to Google
In simple example above the link: http://www.google.com is the link and the Go to Google is the anchor text for that link, so when a person clicks the text [Go to Google] he/she will be redirected to Google.com. The above one is the simplest example of HTML links. However, you can use the full attributes of each HTML tag and for the anchor tag or link tag the following attributes are used:
 Join Facebook
Actually the  tag is basically called the anchor tag which holds a link inside. The title is used for the page title which is linked inside the  tag. And the target is used for browser window's behavior. You can use the target as: blank or parent. The blank attribute will open the link in a new browsing window.
How to use images inside links?
You can also use images inside links, or simply images can be made as links. Below example is for an image inside tag:

The example above has an image inside the anchor tag, so when visitor clicks the image, he/she will be redirected to another page.
Video Tutorial
Now the final step for learning HTML links is to watch this video and then go to implement the tips.
We are going to learn complete HTML training step by step and in coming days, you'll be presented a complete course of HTML 5 with video tutorials. Till next time stay happy and Happy New Year 2013.

text: This study remains open to accrual. Brain tumors are the most common solid neoplasm in childhood and the second most common group of pediatric cancers. Standard therapeutic options for brain tumors consist of surgical resection, radiation therapy and chemotherapy;yet overall survival rates for malignant brain tumors remain low. Radiation therapy plays a key role in the treatment of diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas (DIPG) and high-grade gliomas (HGG), and thalidomide has been shown in an animal model to be a radiosensitizer. Lenalidomide, a thalidomide analog with antiangiogenic, cytotoxic and immunomodulatory effects, is being evaluated for the treatment of CNS tumors, and has shown tolerability and activity in pediatric studies. Objectives: To determine the tolerability and toxicity profile of oral lenalidomide when administered to children with newly diagnosed HGG and DIPG with concurrent radiation at doses up to 116 mg/m2/day. To evaluate long-term tolerability of lenalidomide in children with newly-diagnosed HGG and DIPG To evaluate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences for noninvasive monitoring of metabolic and biologic changes in malignant brain tumors with therapy. To estimate 6 month and 12 month progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in this patient population. To determine if angiogenic and/or immunomodulatory biomarkers in the blood and urine correlate with toxicity and disease response. To determine the rate of CNS metastatic disease in patients treated with antiangiogenic chemotherapy. To determine any correlation of steady state pharmacokinetics of lenalidomide with time to progression, number and type of toxicities, and dose limiting toxicities. Eligibility: Children with newly diagnosed HGG or DIPG,less than 21 years of age, no prior chemotherapy or radiation therapy, and performance score greater than or equal to 60%. Children with HGG must have an inoperable or incompletely resected tumor. Clinical laboratory tests must be within stated limits. Design: There will be two phases to therapy on this study, the Radiation Phase and the Maintenance Phase. The MTD will be determined by tolerability during the Radiation Phase. Eligible patients will receive radiation therapy five days per week to a prescription dose of 54-55.8 Gy, with concurrent administration of lenalidomide daily in a standard Phase I dose escalation design. At the conclusion of radiation therapy, there will be a two week break followed by maintenance dosing of lenalidomide for 21 days of a 28 day course, until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression or completion of 24 courses of lenalidomide beyond radiotherapy. Using a standard phase I dose escalation design, the total sample size and the study duration are expected to be 18 30 patients and 5-6 years, respectively.

Donald Trump may be a hero to all golfers for ousting a man out of his Trump International Golf Club for verbally abusing caddies and talking too loud on the driving range.

Circuit judge Timothy McCarthy said only the admissions committee could suspend Harry Theodoracopulos, a former race car driver and a man Trump said would be "a cancer on any club he goes to."
Trump, who plans to appeal, must refund the $200,000 membership deposit to Theodoracopulos and could owe attorney fees.

text: Carole BuyersThank you, Kevin and good morning everyone. With me today are Steve Hughes, our Chairman and CEO and Chris Sacco, our CFO and Treasurer. Earlier this morning, we issued our second quarter earnings release. If you have not seen the press release, its available on the investor center page of our website at www.smartbalance.com. The company uses the terms cash operating income and net income and earnings per share, excluding non-cash and certain items as a non-GAAP measure. The company believes that these measures better explain its profitability and performance consistent with the way the investor's and security analyst evaluate our company in a competitive environment in which we operate. Cash operating income is defined as operating income excluding stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization and acquisition and integration related costs. In addition the company uses the term adjusted EBITDA, when referring to Udi's as management believes that this measure better explains the acquired company's profitability and performance consistent with the way the investor and security analysts evaluate the performance in the competitive environment in which we operate. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as operating income or net income excluding interest, taxes, depreciation amortization and other non-cash and one-time items. The company believes that the exclusion of both non-cash and certain items provide a better reflection of the operating profitability of the company and strongly complement the company's planning and forecasting models used in providing investor and security analyst with important supplemental information regarding the company's underlying profitability and operating performance. Finally, the company uses the term cash EPS which is defined as GAAP EPS plus incremental amortization of intangibles and depreciation related to the Udi's transaction. However, non-GAAP financial measures to be viewed in addition to and not as an alternative for the company's results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP measures the company views may differ from the non-GAAP measures used by other companies. We have included in our press release reconciliations of cash operating income to operating income and of net income and EPS excluding non-cash and certain items to net income and EPS in each case as calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Posted by ESPN.com's Kevin Seifert
Somebody please school me. Earlier Wednesday, we invited you to suggest nicknames for Detroit receiver Calvin Johnson. Many of you noted that Johnson already is known as "Megatron," a nickname bestowed last season by teammate Roy Williams.
My limited knowledge of Transformers tells me that Megatron is one of the bad guys. In fact, Megatron's Wikipedia entry refers to him as the "evil leader" of the Decepticons, as well as "utterly ruthless ... highly aggressive ... [and] a megalomaniac." (There is also a detailed discussion about his primary and secondary weaponry, but it's probably not relevant here.)
We realize there is a small chance we're overthinking this thing, but how does the Megatron character fit a mild-mannered guy like Calvin Johnson? Is it simply that they're both the baddest men on the block? (Junior of Gilbert, Ariz., reports it is a reference to Johnson's freakish size.)
Another reader reports Williams started referring to Johnson as "Bolt" this summer, a reference to gold-medal sprinter Usain Bolt. Maybe it's just me, but I like that one better. Either way, it was a fun discussion.
Now, back to your regularly scheduled dose of football.

Amazon (comics) redirects here; for the Amazons of DC Comics, see Amazons (comics).
The Man-Killer (real name Katrina Luisa Van Horn) is a fictional supervillain in Marvel Comics' universe.
Publication historyEdit
Man-Killer first appeared in Marvel Team-Up volume 1 #8 (April 1973) by Gerry Conway and Jim Mooney.
The character subsequently appeared in Daredevil vol. 1 #121 (May 1975), 123 (July 1975), Iron Man vol. 1 #126-127 (September-October 1979), and Marvel Team-Up vol. 1 #107 (July 1981), where she seemingly died. The character appeared several years later in Web of Spider-Man Annual #3 (1987), and made several appearances in Thunderbolts vol. 1, including issues #3 (June 1997), #18-20 (August-November 1998), 23-25 (February-April 1999), 27 (June 1999), 30 (September 1999), 34-35 (January-February 2000), 39-42 (June-September 2000), and in Deadline #2 (July 2002). After joining the Thunderbolts, and taking the name Amazon, she appeared in Thunderbolts vol. 1 #64-65 (July-August 2002), 67 (September 2002), 69 (October 2002), 71 (November 2002) Marvel Universe: The End #5-6 (July-August 2003), Thunderbolts vol. 1 #73-75 (December 2002-February 2003), 80-81 (August-September 2003), New Thunderbolts #18 (April 2006), and Thunderbolts vol. 2 #100 (May 2006).
Man-Killer received an entry in the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A-Z 2006 #7.
Fictional character biographyEdit
Katrina Luisa Van Horn was an Olympic skier and is a militant feminist. After engaging in an argument with anti-Women's Liberation skier Karl Lubbings, the two took their disagreement to the slopes. Katrina was an Olympic-level skier, but Lubbings cut her off and both skiers plunged off the mountain. Katrina was severely injured and disfigured. She was fitted with a powered exoskeleton, and took the name Man-Killer (she no longer wears the exoskeleton so it is probable her strength has been enhanced somehow). She has worked freelance and as an agent for Hydra. She has been a member of the Masters of Evil under the Crimson Cowl. As Amazon, she was briefly a member of the Thunderbolts under Hawkeye. She had fought Spider-Man on some occasions.
Feelings regarding men Edit
During an altercation with the Thunderbolts, Katrina told Songbird that she'd rather not fight her, as she had no problems with women, just with men. (Songbird attacked her anyway.) Some time later, however, Erik Josten—Atlas of the Thunderbolts—discovered Katrina working as a bartender in his team's adopted home of Burton Canyon, Colorado. When Josten became a regular at the bar Katrina was congenial towards him, pretending not to recognize him as Atlas. Whatever animosity Katrina may or may not bear towards men, she has proven herself capable of working alongside them with a minimum of personality conflicts.
Powers and abilitiesEdit
Robotic implants replacing and/or compounded with bones and nerves, which give her superhuman powers, good athletic abilities, and the ability to throw knives at a range of hundreds of meters.
Notes Edit
- While initially not confirmed, it was strongly implied for years that Katrina was a lesbian. One example of this occurs in Thunderbolts v.1 #71 when she, Cyclone and Harrier decide to abandon Songbird and Plantman to be captured by agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. Hawkeye and Gypsy Moth capture the trio and attempt to coerce them into going back for Songbird and Plantman, before a S.H.I.E.L.D. search party catches up with them and forces them to fight for their freedom. While Cyclone and Harrier remain tied up, Katrina is freed and subdues a S.H.I.E.L.D. operative who is about to drag them away to be incarcerated. Cyclone asks that she untie them so they can escape, referring to her as "Man-Killer." She makes no move to help them escape and says that she'd rather be called "Amazon", her heroic, Thunderbolts name. Cyclone realizes that she now intends to join Hawkeye and Gypsy Moth in acting noble and laments "One more goes to the other side..." Katrina, apparently misunderstanding, responds "I was born on that side, Frenchie." Her sexuality was eventually confirmed in her profile in the All-New Offifial Handbook to the Marvel Universe #7.
- Other less obvious clues to her lesbianism include:
- A panel in Thunderbolts #42 that shows her wearing pins that say Indigo Girls,Lilith Fair & Xena.
- That same issue she mocks the notion of being romantically involved with Erik Josten.
- Katrina once used the alias Wilma when she was working as a bartender. Presumably this was an homage to the famous feminist Wilma Mankiller.

text: The death toll from prescription painkiller overdose across the U.S. has increased more than five times in the past decade, prompting the Centers for Disease Control to define the problem as an epidemic. Our facilities have seen a corresponding increase in the number of patients seeking treatment for opioid addiction. In Center City, Minn., for example, those seeking treatment for opioid addiction rose from 19 percent of patients in 2001 to 30 percent in 2011. An even more dramatic jump was seen at our facility for young adults and adolescents in Plymouth, Minn., from 15 percent of patients in 2001 to 41 percent in 2011. As part of a comprehensive response to this crisis, we offer the extended, adjunctive use of certain medications for opioid dependence as a means to help people achieve a stable, Twelve Step-based recovery lifestyle and ultimate abstinence from opioids. We are committed to using scientific evidence to continuously improve our treatment methods and outcomes. Our goal will be to discontinue the medications as our patients become established in long-term recovery. We are studying the results of these new treatment protocols and share the results through our Butler Center for Research. Our mission, vision and values statements are clear in outlining our responsibility to pursue the best, most effective methods for treating our patients.

This year marks the 29th Annual Polar Bear Plunge at the Boulder Reservoir.
This special event takes place every year on New Year's Day. Essentially, hundreds of people head out to the cold winter waters of the Boulder Rez in the January temps and take a dip in the frigid waters.
This year's event will benefit the Alzheimer's services and research. It's set for noon. It will be held at the Boulder Reservoir, per tradition.
Hosting the dive is Young Professionals Alzheimer's Association of Colorado. The money will help families and those affected by this disease. Money also will help to fund finding a cure for Alzheimer's.
Last year about 900 people took part in the Polar Bear Plunge. They raised almost $30,000.
If you want to take part, it's $25 for adults. The registration cost is $20 for people under 17 years old. You can register online at www.ypaac.org/polarplunge or by phone 303-813-1669.
You also can register onsite at the Boulder Rez on Jan. 1 starting at 10:30 a.m.
If you make your dip in the water, you get a certificate and a T-shirt. You also may be able to get your picture taken with the Young Professionals Alzheimer's Association of Colorado polar bear. There will be hot tubs there for afterward and beverages and snacks.
Of course if you prefer to stay warm and dry, you can volunteer to help out. Details: [email protected] or call 303-813-1669.

|Artificial Network Transmitting Intelligence
|Biographical information
Date of death:
|Physical information
Female (simulated gender)
blonde (holographic)
blue (holographic)
|Chronological and political information
ANTI, short for Artificial Network Transmitting Intelligence, was the Sprawl's holographic administration system which took the form of a woman in a blue bodysuit. She was given multiple orders to impede Isaac Clarke's progress on restoring power to The Sprawl by Station Director Hans Tiedemann, though against all odds the engineer managed to destroy her computer core and shut her down for good, thus throwing the entire station back into manual mode.
Not much is known about ANTI, as no details are given about her outside of the logs found in the Solar Array. ANTI was the designated artificial intelligence of the entire Sprawl, commanding and governing its systems under the Station Director's orders.
Based on personal notes left by watchman Howard Phillips, ANTI had recently gone erratic, executing unauthorized commands and denying him from leaving his post, both were likely due to Tiedemann's orders or that ANTI had somehow managed to gain self-awareness and was acting on her own accord.
There is a chance that ANTI had either gone rogue or was unstable, as Phillips had logged 23 separate transfer requests, and had received no replies. The logs suggested he wanted to leave but had not, so ANTI may have prevented him from doing so. ANTI is unaware that Phillips is dead, as she repeatedly requests his assistance in preventing Isaac's progress. She does seem to have the capabilities to communicate with the rest of Titan Station, as she receives commands from Tiedemann and executes them in swift order.
Outbreak on The SprawlEdit
She is first encountered as Isaac enters the base of the Solar Array. At first, she does nothing and simply watches Isaac as he moves around the room. When approaching the door leading to the Solar Array, ANTI announces that the identification check has failed, and that Isaac needs to be with Howard Phillips to access the Array. To pass the door, Isaac needs to find the body of Howard Phillips, the watchman in charge of the Array. Once his body is found, Isaac can pass through the door's security scans with Phillips's RIG, and can then enter the corridor.
ANTI detects Isaac's RIG in addition to Howard Phillips's, and asks for his voice imprint to allow his guest access. She activates laser trip mines to impede Isaac's progress. In the next corridor, ANTI purges life support as Isaac is attacked by two Stalkers.
Finally, as Isaac reaches ANTI's core, Hans Tiedemann orders ANTI to lock the core down to stop Isaac from accessing the array. After Isaac rearranges several fuses, ANTI's core becomes exposed. Isaac then destroys the core. ANTI begins to shut down slowly until her voice and image fade, as the doors to the array unlock and the lockdown is lifted.
- You earn the Achievement/Trophy "Shut Down" for defeating ANTI.
- ANTI is similar to HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Both are computer A.I.s that follow secret orders that no one, not even the person who is close to them are aware. They also try to impede the protagonist's progress of trying to shut them down and in both cases, they fail to do so.
- She slightly resembles the Cortana AI from the Halo universe.

Him he loves to show you. Concierges

& Violetta aim to please. If I asked
"would it be possible...." they'd stop

They adjusted our pick-up time. No
Problem. Philipe w/ Olympus booked

|Re: Regression Test Failure! - TinderBox_Derby 375885 - Sun DBTG
|Wed, 08 Feb 2006 17:36:34 GMT
> Duration % is compared to some baseline which is given in the last row > of (in this case) testSummary-375885.html Thanks! But I'm afraid I'm still confused. Take, for example, this part of the larger table: derbyall 630 6 624 0 Duration 45.6% I see that in this particular example, there were 630 tests, and 6 of them passed, and 624 of them failed, and 0 were skipped. And I see at the bottom that it says: Baseline for duration is rev.: 226900 2005-08-02 00:33:20 CEST (SunOS-5.10 i86pc-i386) But what does "Duration 45.6%" mean? Is it telling me something about the wall clock execution time of this test suite? Or is it telling me something about the pass/fail rate? Or is it telling me something else entirely? Each suite seems to have a Duration value, but the numbers don't seem to some up to 100%, and they don't seem related to the success or failure of the individual tests in that suite. I'm sorry I'm being so dense here, but you seem to be telling me that some test suite ("derbyall") is 45.6% of a revision, and I don't understand what it means for a suite to be a percentage of a revision. thanks, bryan

Wildcat Women Sit Atop Leaderboard in Dallas
Wildcat Women Sit Atop Leaderboard in Dallas
April 5, 2013
DALLAS, Texas— Gianna Misenhelter and Carly Ragains turned in strong first-round performances as the K-State women's golf team currently leads the field of 15 after day one of the Dallas Athletic Club Invitational at the par 72, 6,301-yard Dallas Athletic Golf Club.
The Wildcats notched a team score of 6-over par 294 in the first round, one stroke ahead of second-place Oklahoma and two strokes ahead of third-place Denver.
Ragains fired a 2-under par 70 Friday, marking her third under-par score of the season. The sophomore sits in a tie for second with Oklahoma State's Julie Yang and Oregon State's Anica Yoo and one shot behind Oklahoma's Chirapat Jao-Javanil.
Misenhelter turned in an 18-hole score of even-par 72 to sit in a tie for fifth and looks to move up the leaderboard in the final rounds to earn her first top-five finish of the season.
"The ladies did a nice job today," said head coach Kristi Knight. "They hit quite a few good shots, but more importantly they responded well after poor shots. They handled those situations well and stayed in the moment. There is a lot of golf left, and the course will not get easier, but I am proud of their effort today."
Whitney Pyle and Hanna Roos each carded a 4-over par 76 to sit in a tie for 18th, while Olivia Eliasson rounded out the scoring lineup with an 18-hole score of 5-over par 77 to sit in a tie for 26th.
Live stats of the second round can be followed at www.golfstat.com and results will be posted at the conclusion of play onwww.k-statesports.com.

Come on, give me some feedback,

... eeh.. that wasn't my best. *sheepish*
The Widow Skywalker
by Meredith Bronwen Mallory
"... and no Ma'am, I'm sorry, but we seem to be out. I understand completely, yes, but I still can't help you. If you can wait a week, Widow Skywalker may bring some to town with her."
There was every chance he'd misheard it, Luke rationalized. It had only been a disembodied voice, after all, heard through the din of the market place. The young man cursed inwardly; those words, so surreal and out of place, had thrust him forcably into uncertainty. He had paused there, in the middle of the market, his heart, lungs-- indeed, the whole of him-- stilled. There awakened then old dreams, the dreams of a child without mother or father, longing for answers more detailed than the ones given by his aunt and uncle. Insanely, he'd wondered whether or not he'd stepped into one of those dreams. It was wishful enough, the idea of finding his mother by mere chance. By the time he managed to process the words, the scope of that sentence, he was unable to locate their speaker.
Was he only to have a glimpse, and then be turned away?
The Jedi, the only Jedi, paced back and forth restlessly in his hotel room. Coming to the wall, he turned went back the way he came, until he met with the other end of the room. So much for calm, he though dispairagingly. He tried, without success, to employ the Jedi calming technique, but each time it was shattered by the fragments of thoughts he hadn't allowed to form. Images tried to crystalize, built on those slight moments of rememberance that would sometimes strike his sister. Six times since the Battle of Endor, she had come to him-- sometimes in the middle of the night-- her eyes alive with something she'd thought lost.
"I remembered something," she'd say, and he would open the door to let her in. Never once did he prompt her or ask her what she meant. There were times she would sit on his couch for perhaps a full ten minutes before she could even begin to articulate what she'd discovered. In the end, her words for it were as simple and unexpected as the way she remembered in the first place.
Eating lamplight fruit for what she thought was the first time, Leia remembered another occassion. "The tree was so tall, and Mother held me up to reach them," she said, swallowing as if she could still taste it.
Then, in the market place, she'd seen a woman with a gold circlet in her hair. "Mother wore her hair like that sometimes. It was a dark brown and long-- it went down past her knees. I used to play with the end of her braids." This was said softly, and Luke could see in her face a type of wonder, as if Leia couldn't quite believe it herself.
Other times they were simply images, and Leia would wait while he brought something from the kitchen. Then they would sit together, on the couch, and their hands (even his mechanical one) would reach out and hold tightly. As vocal as Leia was concerning her unwillingness to train, those where the times she reached out through the Force. "I want you to see," she'd said, turning away her candid brown eyes, "and I couldn't bring it across right unless I show you this way." And she would share the images, so that he too might own them, though it broke his heart that he'd never had them in the first place.
Luke sat down heavily, his arms resting themselves against the faded, over-stuffed chair. Each of the images was polished, as vibrant and complete as when they'd first been transferred to him through Leia's hands. He thought about them, stilled pictures, traveling through his arm, carried on his blood until he could see them with his closed eyes.
A loving, safe shadow of Mother, bent over Leia's crib and seen again in a dream.
Mother pushing herself away from the table, food untouched and smile faint, the look in her eyes one of almost sweet sadness.
Glass beads, blue like Luke's own eyes, held in Mother's hand as she helped to pick up Leia's broken necklace.
That was it, that was all he had. Three little memories that were not his own. Some nights he would lay awake, no matter what planet he was on, and stare blindly upwards. He would bring the images to the fore of his mind, memorizing the detail, gazing at them because they were his mother's only legacy. Thinking back on this, he realized he had done it more and more of late. Perhaps, he considered, it was simply the fact that his search for Force-sensitives to train had taken him far from Coruscant, and what was left of his family. Luke shook his head, as if that would help to clear his mind, and climbed to his feet once more.
"Widow Skywalker," he murmured, trying to get a feel for it. Those two small words brought back the sounds of the market, as if to act as a background. Widow Skywalker, Mother; it seemed almost obscene that he was this close only by chance.
But how many Skywalkers could there be in the Galaxy?
"Alright," he said aloud, his real hand unconciously moving to touch the handle of his lightsaber. It was his, formed by his hands and his skill, but there were times it felt foreign. He could touch it, trace over the lines he'd made himself, and know instictively that they were in the wrong place. But as much as he remembered the contors of the other (his father's) lightsaber, he could not dublicate them properly. Nor should he, Luke reminded himself sternly. It was automatic, though, and he barely thought about it. He moved restlessly, possibilities stirring in his veins. If Obi-Wan had been there, Luke would have been quite embarassed at his lack of composure. "Alright," he said again, more firmly this time. He put his hands against a nearby table to stop the pacing. "Tomorrow I'll go to the market and see what I can find out." Artoo beeped questioningly from his place in the corner, and it occured to Luke suddenly that the little droid had no idea what he was talking about. At times it seemed Artoo was more of an extension, like the lightsaber, somehow always knowing his thoughts. Most of the time, Artoo was able to predict them with startling regularity. Fondly, the young Jedi reached over and placed his hand on Artoo's silver dome.
"Just a lead I found, Artoo," he explained, "I think it's worth following up."
The decision calmed Luke more than anything else, though it seemed to him that there had never been any question. To turn his back on this discovery, even if it consisted only of words over heard in the market place, would be violating a part of himself. Peace settled around his shoulders once more, and he smiled. Peace was a learned thing, sure enough, but it certainly helped get things done more quickly.
There was little for Luke to do for the rest of the evening save take his supper alone in his room and retire to bed. His recent 'little scrape' on Calamari, coupled with the long voyage to Koe, had taken more out of the Jedi than he'd suspected. The lower the small, red sun of Koe slipped, the more Luke found himself longing for sleep. Yawning lightly, he finished up the plain meal of fish (which, oddly enough, reminded him more of Beru's cooking than anything else) and pulled a small, rented computer unit into his lap. Leia, though she understood the need for Jedi in the New Republic, made no secret of her personal dislike for the idea. Rationally, Luke knew that he shouldn't blame her, but he always found the thought a bitter one. If the desperate need to hold onto their memories of Mother pulled the twins together, then the memories they had of Father pushed them apart.
"I just don't understand it," Leia would say, sometimes mournfully and other times with accusation. Often, the subject would be far from the one at hand, but Luke knew it dwelt in his sister always. Days came when Leia looked at him with half-concious suspicion, and he knew those were the times she was doubting her own origins. Her eyes would rest on him, looking like the eyes of someone else, and she would shake her head. Once or twice she put her hand on his shoulder-- to show that her confusion didn't matter-- but most of the time she turned away because it did. There was no way Luke could express to her the change in Vader, and Leia could not concieve of the idea on her own. But in spite of-- or perhaps, he admitted, because of-- her dislike for the subject, Luke always made a point of sending a report to her whenever he got the chance. She didn't always respond, he though wryly; the last messsage he'd recieved had said only that she was happy to hear he was well. Nothing regarding his search for Jedi, or his request that Threepio look for records in the Master Computer on Coruscant. Leia probably *had* set Threepio to the task, Luke considered, her failure to mention it was only to remind him of her distaste.
'Siblings,' the Jedi thought with a small, cynical smile. At least he *had* a sister to fight with. Still, when he left out any mention of 'Widow Skywalker', he didn't bother to question himself. Why get Leia's hopes up?-- or, so the rational went. Inwardly, he held the possibility of his mother close. In theory, she had always existed, but he regarded her as one regards a towering mountain. 'Mother' was a nebulous idea; he'd never had one before. He'd known surprisingly few others, he realized. Camie's mother had been a tall woman, body bent and shaped by the winds of Tatooine, her eyes the color of sand. His only memory of her, probably the only time he'd actually *seen* the woman, was the sight of her leaning over Camie and fusing with her hair. Aunt Beru had been a mother in a way, he supposed, but she carried with her an air of childlessness that had shadowed her bright blue eyes. It was only now that Luke wondered why she'd never had any children of her own.
Outside, the dome of the sky changed to red glass, lit only by the vanishing sun. Luke slipped into bed, ordering each muscle in his body to relax, but his eyes were always on the hill outside the window. A strong breeze ran across the land, moving in the tall grass that was only a shade darker than the sky. As the Jedi waited for sleep to claim him, his mind filled with images of a childhood on this planet; himself small, running after Leia through the jungle of tall copper grass. Just wishful thinking. He was aware of the mechanics of sleep and, as the last cog slipped into place, Luke was almost certain that tonight he was sure to dream of Mother as Leia sometimes did.
In the end, he dreamt of Aunt Beru, seen through the kitchen door as she waved him off to play.
He woke, but couldn't find it in himself to be disappointed.

Less Gun, More Fun! S&W's CS9 9mm Carries and Competes Well
We think the CS9 and Glock�s Model 26 run neck and neck as personal-defense/paper-punching pistols, with Kahr�s K9 right behind. Also, Wilson�s $748 Kahr upgrade is nice, but pricey.
It has come to our attention that there is indeed a rift between stalwarts of practical shooting. USPSA/IPSC approaches the sport in a freewheeling manner, with eyes toward raising the level of its game to that of an Olympic sport. The International Defensive Pistol Association would rather have its matches looked upon as training for life-threatening situations. Attending matches held under the auspices of each of these organizations has led us to believe that each brand of practical match has value as training and entertainment. Whereas the IDPA insists on carry-suitable guns and holsters, it is most easy to succeed in these matches with a pistol that would also be competitive at a USPSA/I...

Cyber Monday Reds 15-Pack
Your Cyber Monday Reds 15-Pack includes
Black Fox Cabernet Sauvignon (x2)
With its flavors of raspberry, cherry, with hints of cassis, and cedar, Black Fox dances on your tongue with its vibrant tannins, light mouth feel, and a finish that doesn't linger too long.
Spencer Family Reserve Cask Red (x2)
Fill up your cart with this deliciously smooth, robust red. Sweet black fruit aromas added to layers of ripe black cherry and plum flavors reflect a heavenly marriage of Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache and Syrah. Forward fruit flavors and a velvety texture make this a go-to red wine for every day enjoyment.
Gejas Private Reserve Big Bold Red (x2)
As the name says, this is a wine big on flavor and bold, with ripe flavors floating over a fine structure of natural fruit acidity. If you haven't already tried it, there's no better time than now. The Geja's Big Bold Red is a feisty, impudent red with prominent, aggressive tannins that are fresh and forward. This is one wine you can enjoy every day of the week at a price that's hard to beat.
Sierra Trails Old Vine Zinfandel (x2)
Coming to us from some of the oldest Zinfandel plantings in California, the Sierra Trails Old Vine Zinfandel is a complex wine offering aromas of ripe berry, dried plum and red currants. These remarkable fragrances are echoed in the flavoring where a hint tobacco, black pepper spice and sweet oak lifts the fruit and carry them through a lingering finish.
Albarrada Red (x2)
Albarrada is a new and exclusive winery that makes amazing wine that showcases local grapes. This red wine (or vinho tinto, in Portuguese) features a local grape, called Castelão. Native to the soils of Portugal, Castelão. It is unusual, finding a better home in the drier and harsher climate of Portugal than the normally more grape friendly soils of temperate climates. When well cared for, the wine that results is aromatic and fruit-forward with notes of red berries and slight hints of floral notes.
Kepe Tempranillo (x2)
Full of ripe fruit right from the outset. Raspberry, strawberry, plum and black currant notes can all be found, even on the nose. These flavors continue through the palate to the finish. This wine aims to be one that can be opened anytime and pair with your favorite everyday foods like pizza, pasta, and grilled meats.
Monarch Glen Merlot (x2)
This is a wine that flaunts aromas of tangy cherry and sweet berries, with flavors of berry, plum, and spices. A tasty wine that finishes clean and dry. So what food to pair with this wonderful wine? Roasted chicken rubbed with Herbs De Provence or grilled rack of lamb with fresh mint.
Yapa Carmenere (x1)
The wine displays a violet red color and the aromas of fresh red fruit—raspberries and cherries—along with notes of herbs and toasted coffee beans. The aromas follow through on the palate with red fruits, spices and bittersweet chocolate. Serve this wine with a zesty pork dish, or a hearty tomato seafood stew.
In rare instance a wine substitution may be required to fulfill your order in a timely manner. Any substitution will always be for a wine of equal or greater value.

Best way to surgically remove depressed forehead scar? (photo)
Doctor Answers 5
Scar revision
Thank you for sharing your photos.
From what I can see, I am not sure conservative measures will give you the outcome you are looking for. Conservative measures would be filler, and fraxel laser. This may improve it, but given the depth and width of the scar I would recommend scar revision. There will be a new scar, but it can be done in a way that does not attract the eye to it as much. After the revision fractional laser is still an option to improve it further.
Best of luck,
Dr Rodman
Choose non surgical scar revision for your vertical scar
Surgery is not a great option here. I would suggest subcision, matrix RF, fractional laser, and fillers as a non-surgical option.

Best way to surgically remove depressed forehead scar?
Thank you for sharing your question and photograph. Though conservative means will help improve your scar's appearance I think the greatest benefit would be through a surgical scar revision. it will leave you with a longer scar but hopefully one that is even with your surrounding forehead tissues. Additional treatments during your recovery can help improve the appearance once full healed. See the link below for useful information.

Perfectio vera in coelestibus St. Jerome
I had never heard of Armando Galarraga prior to last night.I was surfing
around the cable when I noticed a note crawling across the bottom of a
screen on one of the sports networks which reported that said Galarraga
had been "perfect through six" in a game he was pitching in Detroit
against the Cleveland Indians. What this meant was that he had retired
the first 18 men in order in the baseball game and if he could get the
next nine men out he would have pitched a "perfect" game. It would have
been the 2oth such game in major league history, a history which goes
back about 135 years. It is quite a rare event, although, oddly, two of
the 19 pitched in the last 135 years had taken place within the last
three weeks. Only once before, 1880, had two such games been pitched in
one season and never before had three been pitched in one year.
In this era of instant communication, the sports network ESPN switched
from their regular programming over to Detroit after the 7th inning was
completed with the perfect game still intact, so that fans could see
history made. I was gratified that the switch was made and, along with a
couple of million of my close friends settled in to see what would
Perfection. It is impossible to say that something is perfect. Let me
retract that last sentence. It is impossible to say with absolute
certainty that something is perfect unless we have a previously agreed
upon definition by which to judge the effort. There is no reason why we
should, as a society, have settled upon a perfect game in baseball being
the retirement of 27 batters in a row. We could have said that no one
pitched a perfect game unless they struck out all 27 batters. We could
go further than that and decreed that a game was only perfect if every
batter struck out on three pitches , or, if every batter struck out on
three pitches AND if none of the three strikes per batter was on a foul
I was holding the channel changer in my hand as the ninth inning started
for Mr. Galarraga. The first batter, the immortal Mark Grudzielanek
swung and hit a deep fly in the gap between left and centerfield. The
ball was hit so hard and placed so perfectly that I actually had my
thumb on the power button of the remote so that I could turn the game
off when the ball hopped off of the wall for a double. A funny thing
happened though. The Detroit Centerfielder, a fellow named Austin
Jackson running full stride caught the ball over his shoulder, his face
to the wall. A catch that more than one commentator has likened to
Willie Mays famous 1954 World Series catch. It was not simply a great
baseball play, it was a remarkable example of human athleticism. I was
stunned. I moved my thumb off of the power button and threw down the
control. This was going to be a perfect game, I was sure.
The next batter grounded out on a routine play, leaving only one batter
to be disposed of. That hitter was Jason Donald. I did not know much
about Jason, but I knew that he was batting in the number nine spot in
the Indian lineup, so by definition, I knew that he was the Indians
weakest hitter participating in that game. Young Donald proceeded to hit
a ball in the no man's land between First and second base. Miguel
Cabrrera, the Tiger first baseman ran toward it and it was obvious would
have to throw to the pitcher Galarraga coming over to cover first base.
In baseball, this is known as a 3-1 play and it is practiced constantly.
Woe to the pitcher who does not get over in time to cover. I frankly
thought that Cabrerra was too far over to get the runner, and I also had
my doubts that Galarraga would beat Donald to the bag. No one wants to
be the last out in a perfect game and see themselves on videotape
forever after failing to do their job ,so Donald was running like the
wind .
Cabrerra gloved the ball (ironically, the second baseman was directly
behind him, if Cabrerra had covered first himself the play would not
have been all that close, but Cabrerra did exactly what he was supposed
to be doing) and threw to the pitcher who was almost to the bag. I
leaned toward the screen and saw, in this order, the ball hit the
pitcher's glove, the pitcher's foot scrape over the top of first base
followed by the runners foot hitting the bag. To my shock, the umpire,
James Joyce (oh, ok, he goes by Jim, but for literary reasons I'm going
to call him by his given name)called the runner safe. Ah ha, I thought,
when the pitcher swept his foot across the bag, he must not made
contact. Oh well, at least it's the pitcher's own fault. Several replays
later it was clear that the bag had been touched by the pitcher. After
the game, James Joyce, probably drinking Jameson's deep into the night,
stated that he thought that the runner had "beaten the throw". This was
simply a blown call, a mistake, the reason why we put erasers on
pencils, the reason why we say (and you knew this was coming) "nobody is
perfect" .
Back to perfection. Under the definition I gave you for a perfect game,
Galarraga was perfect. 27 men came up, 27 men made outs. My definition
was flawed. A man is not out, no matter what, unless an umpire says that
he is out Galarraga had achieved perfection, he had just not been given
credit for it, and never will be in the record books. Forever after the
cold box score will say that Armando Galarraga pitched a magnificent one
hitter on the night of June 2, 2010 in the city of Detroit, Michigan.
Millions who saw it both live and on television will know that he was
wronged and, in a lesser way, the millions watching were themselves
wronged, cheated out of seeing something that happens so infrequently.
Many a fielder's error has destroyed a perfect game. Last night an
umpire's error did so. Umpires, like all of us make mistakes. At least I
think we all do. Ironically, the original James Joyce's did not fully
agree with me. Joyce said that " A man of genius makes no mistakes, his
errors are volitional and are the portals of discovery." The umpire
James Joyce was more forthright about mistakes. "It was the biggest call
of my career and I kicked the shit out of it" he said last night. Indeed
he did, but you have to admire someone who would be so honest and you
have to hope that some of the great sympathy we feel for Galarraga, we
also feel for the umpire Joyce because really, it is a equal tragedy
for both men. Both men were doing the best they could, both were trying
to make their way on to perfection. I think that perhaps both of them
are closer to perfection now than they ever were.
We will hear in coming days, the appeal made again to allow use of
instant replay to be for these situations. I have always opposed that.
Baseball is a human game. Human beings are not about always "getting it
right". There is still room, even need, for catharsis in today's world
(Aristotle would have opposed instant replay).These small tragedies are
the things in life that remind us of what it means to be humans. If we
wanted to always "get it right" we could just program all of the players
and play the games on a computer like the kids do in their E.A. games.
Why bother with going through all the motions, to heck with hot dogs and
cracker jacks and seventh inning stretches ? To heck with stories about
real human beings like Galarraga and Joyce. To heck with cheering for
your flawed hero or booing an umpire. The spirit of Galarraga and Joyce
is what is needed in today's world. Much more than perfection.

Anyone who operates a Jeep knows that when it comes to maintaining their automobile only the absolute best replacement parts will do. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to all the cars, trucks, and SUVs on the road today. You picked your J-2700 because its adventure and versatility agreed with your nature; so why would you be okay with second rate when it comes to superior quality auto parts? Jeep car, truck, or SUV owners have come to expect a certain level of adventure when driving their J-2700 around town.
The technology to heat the passenger compartment of an automobile came long before one was invented. The engine of your Jeep J-2700 constantly pumps and turns a mixture of water and ethylene glycol through the engine block in order to absorb the heat it generates, and sends this liquid to the heater core (a small radiator) through a heater supply hose when you want to warm your vehicle's cabin. Your heater core sits inside a heater box, mounted behind your glove compartment, and you can find it by following the two heater hoses towards the passenger side of the firewall. Essentially, your Jeep J-2700 heater core acts like a radiator; in that it uses the engine coolant to emit heat for the blower motor to propel into the inside of the car.
Get your J-2700 back on the road with the best replacement parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Trust in the value of the parts you get from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. When your Jeep requires a new replacement Heater Core, there's no need to go somewhere besides the authority, Car Parts Discount. If your car or truck was built in 1970, 1969, 1968, 1967, 1966, 1965, then you will find the correct Jeep J-2700 Heater Core parts right here.

Product Description
Prism Break used to be a frightening rock golem who didn't like to be bothered. After being buried underground for 100 years in a cave-in, he gains a change of heart when a Mabu mining expedition freed him and Prism Break dedicated himself in protecting the Mabu tribe and Skylands.
Prism Break was once a fearsome rock golem who didn't like to be disturbed. Then, an accidental cave-in left him buried underground. One hundred years later, a mining expedition digging for valuable jewels discovered him by chance with a well-placed blow from a pick axe -- something Prism Break doesn't talk about. After 100 years of solitude, he found that the pressure of the earth had transformed him emotionally as well as physically, turning his crude rocky arms into incredible gems with powerful energy. Grateful for being free of his earthly prison, Prism Break decided to put his new abilities to good use, and from that day forward, he dedicated himself to protecting the Mabu and Skylands alongside the other Skylanders.
Prism Break was a fearsome Rock Golem who inhabited dark, dangerous places deep underground. But embedded in the rocky walls of Prism Break's hoeme was a dragon's hoard of gems, jewels and sparkly stones that no miner could resist. Few returned unscathed. Those that could still speak told of trashed tools and mangeled machinery - not to mention the blood-curtling cries and ghastly growls that rang out from the dark depths. A nice place for a relaxing breaking this was not. Eventually there were no miners left who would brave these perilous passageways. Finally able to rest without interruption, Prism Break retired to his favorite cavern and sank into a silent slumber. He slept through some important events - including the roof collapsing over him. Over 100 years later, Prism Break was rudely roused by a new generation of Mabu miners. One of them had pick-axed him in a place he rather not mention. But instead of munching the Mabu and using the pickaxes for toothpicks, Prism Break found himself transformed. His arms had turned from rocks into powerful gems that fired pure bolts of energy. Feeling much improved, he decided to be a force for good instead of grumpiness. So he joined the Skylanders.

wall shear in immersed solid
In immersed solid module of cfx, I need to find the wall shear; basically use it to find the skin friction coefficient cf
It seems that the immersed solid does not recognize wall shear.
I calculate cf using the following expression:
Wall Shear/(0.5*massFlowAve(Density)@inlet *Uinf^2)
But Wall Shear seems unrecognized.
If I need to plot friction factor for an immersed solid how should I do it!!
Thank you
Immersed solid do not have wall shear as a variable as they are not modelled as walls, but as momentum source terms. You are going to have to calculate wall shear another way - maybe looking at the general flow stress tensor at the locations near the wall or some other calculation which evaluates to wall shear.
Thnx for the reply.
I figured out two ways, actually the problem is with wall shear.
Method 1:
As wall shear stress is given by
Then in cfx we can use the expression
Wall Shear = 0.0000198 [Pa s] *Velocity u.Gradient Y
where 0.0000198 is viscosity of air.
I tested this for a flat plate analysis done earlier
Using Wall Shear this was the plot
Then I used the expression 0.0000198 [Pa s] *Velocity u.Gradient Y, this was the plot
The results are fairly different,
What is the issue.
Method 2
I then found this link http://www.cfd-online.com/Wiki/Skin_...on_coefficient and decided to use and empirical value. My Max reynolds number is 10^6. I decided to use the first empirical expression. But the problem was that this error!
No data exists for variable 'CF' specified in object 'Series 1'\'Chart Line 1'.
Please help!
For the first one: Immersed solids use a momentum sink to behave like a wall. They do this with a factor which has to be a balance between stopping the flow enough to act like a wall versus numerical stability. You need to do a sensitivity analysis on this parameter to check this parameter is set adequately before making any assessments about the accuracy of the approach.
For two: You have not defined the variable "CF" properly. The error message is pretty clear.
By the factor do you mean the momentum source scaling factor, well I have found out that momentum source scaling factor performs best for momentum source scaling factor of 100 or above. I did that for a flat plate
About the method 1, I suggested earlier, it is for a general case not immersed solid. I compared the value of wall shear with the general accepted definition, but the results differ!!
I mean Wall Shear = 0.0000198 [Pa s] *Velocity u.Gradient Y is the definition of wall shear, so it must be justified, unless it is not the case.
I understand now. Are you reporting hybrid or conservative values?
I am using hybrid values.
What does it give you if you use conservative values?
Conservative or hybrid values makes no difference, also the difference between either using wall shear or 0.0000198 [Pa s] *Velocity u.Gradient Y is very large.
I suspect it is using conservative variables and hybrid variables are not available for this calculation.
I think the problem is that your equation is based on the value in the control volume next to the wall (ie an average of the wall to a distance out from the wall) and the wall shear stress is evaluated at the wall. To check this, if you do a mesh refinement you will find your equation getting closer as you refine the mesh.

This is another super simple art idea to do for St. Patrick's Day or any day — all you need is a cookie cutter, some paint, and some paper!
We buy only primary colored paint (and white), so first we mixed yellow and blue to make green in a plastic lid (saved from a large yogurt container). I put white paint on a 2nd lid. Then I added two shamrock cookie cutters, 2 pieces of green paper, and 2 eager kids.
This is what they came up with:
