Have you ever got that feeling, as you go through your day, that there has to be something more to "this"? Something more to this basic 9-5 that's really 7:30-6:30 with the ridiculous commute? To the job that doesn't fill you up and is just barely paying the bills? And how about this apartment? It's small as hell yet, your rent is two mortgage payments (Can't just be me right? lol) Or your on-again-off-again boyfriend who only seems to be "on" at 2 am? "Geez! There has got to be more out there for me" you shout! Just talking about this is making you frustrated and exasperated and you are starting to lose hope… there has to be something better… right?
Guess what?
There is more out there for you. This is probably gonna strike you as woo-woo and you know what? That's ok! But I am going to let you know that The Universe (or God, Spirit, whatever you prefer) wants more for you! Let me ask you a question: Do you really think God created you, this gorgeous, intelligent woman, for you to have a mediocre, unfulfilling life? Hell no! Why would She waste her time? She wouldn't. All She wants to do is have you live your best life ever!
[Tweet "There is so much more for you out there… just gotta want it!"]
What's the deal?
Well in order for you get out of the mediocre life… you have to know what your AWESOME life consists of!
What does your ideal day look like?
What does your house look like?
How are you dressed?
What do people close to you call you?
Ask yourself all of these questions and more to get to the heart of it.
Then CONNECT!
CONNECT with the feeling that having this life has.
Connect with the vision of your ideal life that you are creating.
Connect because when the bumps in the road come for working toward these goals you'll be able to channel that feeling and use it to continue to motivate you forward.
The point of this process is to give you a vision of the life you really want to have. It's to inspire you and motivate you to work towards your dreams. Believe me, I know what the drift and the over-/under- whelm feels like hitting adulthood. I had all these ideas of what it was going to be like only to have it crushed by "adulting". The daily grind in that 9-5 or that ridiculously unfulfilling retail job that had inconsistent pay & hours week to week. Not being able to plan. Always basing my life around "Do I have work tomorrow?" and all of that. That wasn't the vision I had for my life.
I wanted to travel and see the world and meet new people and get the hell up out of the projects and just do something different.
Then something happened. I started looking for a new job on Careerbuilder and next thing I knew I got a call. It was a recruiter for the Army. I literally said "HELL NO!" and kept shutting him down until… until he said, "You can travel the world!" My ears suddenly perked up and I asked if he was b.s.-ing me and he said "no". It's not guaranteed but you won't be in the projects anymore.
I took the leap of faith because in the vision I had for my life travel was a major part of it. Yes, there were other things but that was #1! And you know what? It wasn't guaranteed but I did end up stationed in Germany for 6 years! And I got to see much of Europe and parts of Asia and the Middle East! Because I knew the vision for my life included travel and I took the opportunity presented to me.
Let's recap
In order to get out of the seemingly mediocre life you are living now you have to know what you would like for your life to be. Picture it in your mind's eye and attach it to feelings and emotions because that is the only way it sticks!
I like to use future-self visualization. In this visualization, you take a walk and magically end up at the house of your future self 10 years from now. You get to ask her questions and she responds to you, letting you in on all the deets of her life in the last few years. It's a powerful visualization. If you are interested in the downloadable version don't hesitate to comment below! I created it but it's a work in progress!

As an essential tool in a marketer's arsenal, editorial calendars organize content according to a targeted digital channel, audience and desired behavior (product trial, thought leadership, etc.). A well developed and executed editorial calendar will schedule topics in advance (typically 3-6 months) so that you can coordinate the content syndication (publication and distribution through multiple channels) and organize it around specific outcomes. Editorial calendar can segment the flow of content on a weekly or monthly basis and is typically centered around specific promotional events and/or campaigns.
4 Essential Steps
To narrow down your requirements for a successfully executed editorial calendar, the following steps should be taken as it aligns with your content marketing strategy. It is important to keep in mind what works for your company may be quite different than your competitors'.
Brainstorm Ideas & Topics
Content must relate to not just your brand or industry, but it must also be interesting and relevant to your readers. Your goal in creating content is for people to interact with it, share it, and respond positively. Brainstorming can begin by analyzing events that appear on a typical yearly calendar. However, be sure to limit your chosen events to those that are appropriate to your industry. Here is general list of events for reference:
- Business Thought Leadership
- New Product Launches & Upgrades
- Marketing Promotions
- Holidays
- Seasonal & Sporting Events
- Awards Shows and Entertainment
Beyond typical calendar events, consider what information would be relevant and interesting to your audience. Posts that pose questions customers can respond to or that can generate discussions are ideal. Creating themed days for posting can also assist in generating interest amongst customers, and lead to reader loyalty by offering some consistency in your posts.
Assemble a Plan
Decide how each post will be formatted, whether there will be a picture used or if the post will have an attached link. These are details that should be determined before the editorial calendar is completed to make posting quick and efficient. Your calendar should be used as a guide, but it is not set in stone. Be flexible if circumstances change and posts need to be adjusted. It is a place to be creative and have fun by engaging with customers. Explore different themed posts and posting approaches to find the one that connects best with your audience.The easiest way to format a calendar is by using Microsoft Excel. Typically, the calendar should include individual tabs for each digital channel and a column for each of the following:
- Targeted Audience Type
- Targeted Conversion Activity
- Author
- Post Date/Time
- Social Channel Name
- Compliance Obligation
- Copy
- Link
- Tracking Token
- Image Attachment
- Notes Section
Develop Content
Based on the content authors assigned in the plan, the content development process involves the researching, writing, gathering, organizing, and editing of information for publication working with the subject matter experts and appropriate team members to make sure your content is aligned with not only the timeliness and correct channel, but has the appropriate brand messaging, compliance, search optimization, and management approvals.Depending on the channel, research the appropriate keywords and hashtags to incorporate in your content using Google Alerts (by topic), Google Analytics (keyword traffic selection), and Twitter (for hashtags).
Measure Results
Tracking your content delivery is the most important activity in the editorial process because it provides insight into what content is engaging, through specific channels with specific audiences. Using tracking tokens and desired outcomes or conversions is a great way to understand patterns of success. The goal is to develop a formula when you know how to organize your editorial calendar targeting the right content, at the right time, through the right channel(s) to the right audience – the 4 R's to Media Mixing.
If you're interested in learning more about editorial calendar development as it relates to your content marketing strategy, contact us and we'd be more than happy to discuss the potential opportunities for your brand.

"Worst Times?" by Esmond Ng 15/12/06 © copyright
When ye skies full grey,
Think your days shadow'd dismay.
Blurr'd sorrow will not let see,
Your eyes to heaven's sun rays.
For hidden they be,
Behind cloudy bearings they'll surface.
Of light, of hope, and do await;
The sky is never gloom stays.
If pours from it Love as tempestuous,
Like tears from which stream Thy face.
If not for such solemn toilsome winds,
Would Thou see the betters of they?
May rainbows much exceedingly,
Sought itself to please to surface.
After the sheets of brief, grief rain,
Betters after each every pain.

Or whatever you would like to call them. Got a few birthdays coming up, so am sewing in between parenting and studying. I made these from a eherm...50c pattern using some $1 vintage trim and some vintage fabric that I was given. It's quite a light, sheer fabric, so they might come out a bit saucy. Hehe. Pretty happy with how they came out - hope they fit the birthday girl and that she likes them.

FRANKFURT, Dec 27 (Reuters) - Daimler (DAIGn.DE) will stick to its plan to invest about 14 billion euros ($19.58 billion) in research and development by 2010 despite the financial crisis, its head of R&D told German newspaper Automobilwoche.
"We will stick to this dimension despite difficult times. But I don't rule out small adjustments," the paper quoted Daimler's head of research and development, Thomas Weber, as saying on Saturday.
Daimler had announced such investment plans in April to prepare for stricter emission regulations.
Weber also said Daimler would roll out an M-Class full hybrid later this year as planned, capable of driving only on electricity under certain conditions, similar to the Toyota Prius (7203.T).
"Based on existing supply contracts for system components we expect to launch the vehicle as planned," he told the paper. (Reporting by Eva Kuehnen; Editing by Ron Askew)

Firefighters to the rescue as bear gets stuck up tree
Cats stuck up trees are no problem for the firefighters of California.
Bears are another matter.
The troubles began when the officers in Oxnard, California, discovered a 90-kg bear in their station car park. They chased it through apartment block gardens and through a condominium complex, where it climbed a tree. It came down and fled to the Santa Clara cemetery, where it sought refuge in another tree.
California Department of Fish and Game officials arrived at the scene where they shot the bear with tranquiliser darts. The firefighters cut away branches to get access to the sedated animal, while branches under the bear's stomach prevented it from falling to the ground. A harness was attached and the bear was hoisted to safety by a…

All were taken to Dar Essalam during a fantasia, a traditional horse show simulating combat assaults. A custom that one can easily imagine as masculine. But little by little women have hoisted themselves on the horses. Delphine Warin named them "New Amazons" those that challenge, intimidating, who proudly wear their statutes. In her photographs, we perceive the ties that bind these women, strength that drive them. A rare and beautiful series by its honesty and intimacy.

Following Much Ado, we took audiences to a brand new venue - Guildford's College of Law - for Shakespeare's darkly comic masterpiece of revenge. To help his friend woo the woman he loves, Antonio, a merchant, borrows money from Shylock, a Jewish moneylender, signing a contract to honour the debt with a pound of his own flesh. All is well until Antonio's business collapses and Shylock demands settlement. Set in the late 1920s, the college's elegant gardens played host to corruption, danger, hedonism and greed - with the Elizabethan manor house forming the backdrop for the infamous courtroom scene...

MAYNARD COOPER & GALE INCREASES PRESENCE IN THE BEST LAWYERS IN AMERICA©Tuesday, August 15, 2017
Maynard Cooper & Gale is pleased to have again increased its presence in The Best Lawyers in America©. This...
In recent years, the State of Alabama has become a target for the location and expansion of all types of manufacturing and technology concerns for which substantial incentives and abatements are available at the state and local levels. Maynard Cooper has been heavily involved in virtually every major project of this kind during the last decade, including both phases of the Mercedes-Benz project as well as Boeing, Hyundai, Toyota, IPSCO Steel and Navistar. The firm also represented Nissan Motor Co. in its recent evaluation of incentives available within the State of Alabama.
We have recently negotiated major incentive packages throughout the state for companies in a wide range of businesses such as:
Maynard Cooper frequently negotiates project agreements and procures valuable incentive and financing packages from the state and local governments in which these industries locate. We also have advised companies on corporate, tax, real estate, environmental permitting and utility issues, as well as related tax-exempt and taxable bond financings. Within the last few years, Maynard Cooper attorneys were the primary drafters of an amendment to the Alabama Constitution that has become the cornerstone of the State's economic development efforts by using oil and gas royalties to fund economic development incentives.
Maynard Cooper is a long-time Strategic Partner of the Economic Development Partnership of Alabama as well as a supporter of the Birmingham Business Alliance. The Firm has worked closely on numerous major projects with the EDPA. We have also worked closely with the State of Alabama Finance Department, the Alabama Department of Commerce and the Alabama Industrial Development Training Board. Coupled with the expertise of our Public Finance Group, the Economic Development & Incentives Group is uniquely suited to handle both the public and private sector representation in the State of Alabama.

The Zionists' Mufti
Historians, including prominent scholars in Israel, quickly pounced upon Benjamin Netanyahu's charge that Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, inspired Hitler to exterminate the Jews of Europe. They correctly pointed out that the Nazi genocide machine was already in operation when the Mufti met with Adolf Hitler in November 1941. In all fairness, however, it must be noted that attempts to implicate Amin al-Husseini in the Holocaust did not originate with the ...Keep Reading »

Home of the Falcons!
"We Achieve and Celebrate Educational Excellence"
Superintendent's Message
January 13, 2017
An Example of Chromebooks in Action
Prior to winter break, I shared information in the Falcon Focus about plans for expanding the use of Chromebooks in our classrooms at multiple grade levels. If you missed that column, here's a link to it:
Chromebook Deployment and G Suite for Education
On Thursday, January 12th, I spent a period in 7th grade science teacher Kelly Haarala's classroom to observe her and her students' use of Chromebooks as tools for teaching and learning. It is my intent today to adequately describe what I observed in order to provide readers with a picture of what classrooms can look like in a technology-rich environment.
It's important to understand up front that not all activities are computer-based. This lesson started with an activity and discussion that required students to analyze a paragraph and use context clues to determine the meaning of a word that Ms. Haarala had made up. Students discussed in pairs and then discussed as a class. All students were successful in using the context clues to determine the word's meaning. Using context to determine meaning is one of those critical skills for academic success because it transfers across subjects and across grade levels.
The lesson I observed was the beginning of a multi-day project consisting of three main parts: 1) Moon Phases, which requires students to create animations of moon phases, including orbital patterns and corresponding images of the shaded and illuminated portion of each phase; 2) Solar Eclipses, requiring students to create animations of how the moon moves into the path of the Earth to block the sun in annular, total, and partial eclipses; 3) Lunar Eclipses, requiring the creation of animations showing how the Earth moves into the path of the moon to block the sun during total, penumbral, and partial eclipses. To create these animations, students will use Scratch, a free coding program provided through MIT that serves as a tool for students to code their own interactive stories, animations, and games. In the process, they think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively. If you're wondering right now, "What is Scratch?" here's a link that will help your understanding:
Scratch For Parents
To accomplish these tasks, students were organized into 11 pairs determined in advance by Ms. Haarala. One member of each team retrieved a Chromebook from the charging cart and logged into Google Classroom, a teacher-managed digital platform that organizes and facilitates teacher and student collaboration.
Once there, they found directions and links created by Ms. Haarala.
Their first order of business was to create a username and password for working in the Scratch site.
Ms. Haarala addressed the entire class to go over specific instructions about what needed to be done when and some non-negotiable do's and don'ts. Students were instructed to search the Scratch archives for examples that other students have done and were explicitly told, multiple times, that copying one of these projects was not part of the plan. She provided plenty of evidence that she was VERY familiar with the examples there and even as a causal observer, I was convinced that copying one of those was a B-A-A-A-D idea.
The pairs were then given a handout titled, "Eclipse Project Storyboard," which contained boxes for sketches of each screen and boxes in which students needed to explain what they wanted each screen to do in terms of animation. She stated multiple times that the storyboards needed to be completed by the end of the next day's class period and that she would review and sign off prior to anyone beginning to code in Scratch. For approximately 25 minutes, student teams explored other students' projects available on the Scratch site and got to work in designing their storyboards. Ms. Haarala monitored student progress, answered individual questions, and made suggestions. The period came to an orderly end with Ms. Haarala checking for understanding that everyone knew that the storyboards were due at the end of the next day, that students logged out of the Chromebooks, and that they were returned to the charging carts, ready for the next class of students to come through the door.
While this is not intended as an evaluation of Ms. Haarala, I observed an excellent lesson Thursday. The planning and preparation that went into this were evident and students were highly engaged in a variety of activities that addressed appropriate and explicit seventh grade science standards, Arizona Department of Education educational technology standards, and those important skills sometimes referred to as "the Four Cs," which are creativity, collaboration, communication, and critical thinking. The Chromebooks played an important role in this lesson but were simply an effective tool for achieving the objectives.
Kind Regards,
Patrick Sweeney, Ed.D.

Anguish at fatal fire in Hokitika
A West Coast woman is devastated her neighbour has perished despite her desperate efforts to fight a huge shed fire with a garden hose near Hokitika early this morning.
Volunteer fire fighters discovered a body after the 4.20am fire in a shed at the rear of the Kaniere home, about 2km inland from Hokitika.
The neighbour, who declined to be named, said she woke to hear loud cracking noises and was about to look outside when her distraught neighbour knocked on her window.
She begged for help, saying she feared her partner, a man in his mid-20s and the father of their two young daughters, was trapped in the blazing shed.
"I jumped the fence with the hose but it was too big for that... The flames were huge.
"It went up so quick," the neighbour said.
"I yelled and yelled for him but I couldn't go in it.
"I feel devastated. You do what you have to do and then it hits you. I'm really sorry for them. It's unbelievable.''
She said the man had been out with a friend last night and initially, his partner thought both could have been trapped in the shed or had gone to the other man's home.
"We didn't know if he was in there or not. We were really hoping he wasn't."
After the fire fighters arrived, the neighbour said she went around to the friend's house nearby to check where they were.
The friend was safe at home but confirmed the neighbour was in the shed.
"I was hoping when I was going around there (my neighbour) was at his place.''
The Fire Service's West Coast area commander, Mark Boere, said it was the first fatal fire on the West Coast in at least five years, since he had been in the position.
Fire investigators would check the scene for the fire's cause and origin.
West Coast police confirmed one person died in the fire and were investigating.
The body was yet to be recovered by mid-morning and formally identified.
"At this stage no further information on the cause of the fire or the name of the deceased is available."

Certificate Programs
A professional certificate might be just what you need to take your career or your coursework to the next level. Continuing Education has partnered with departments at CU Boulder to offer the following certificates:
Certification in Corporate Social Responsibility (CCSR)
As businesses increasingly choose to evaluate their success on the "triple bottom line" (people, planet, and profit), professionals leading CSR efforts within their companies are looking for best practices that can help deliver maximum value back to their companies and the communities they serve. The Certification in Corporate Social Responsibility is a 40-hour professional development program for people seeking to further themselves and their companies in the practice of CSR. Developed in partnership with B:CIVIC, a Colorado-based nonprofit alliance of professionals and business leaders focused on CSR and civic philanthropy. Upon completion of the program, students receive a nondegree Certification in CSR from the Leeds School of Business.
Certificate in Language Teaching with Technology
The Certificate in Language Teaching with Technology is a 12-credit, fully online graduate program dedicated to the theory and practice of technology integration in the language classroom. It is designed for language educators who wish to improve their technological, pedagogical, and linguistic proficiency. This certificate is sponsored by the Anderson Language & Technology Center at CU Boulder.
Speech-Language Pathology Assistant Professional Certificate
The Speech-Language Pathology Assistant Professional Certificate Program provides the opportunity for individuals desiring employment in public schools as a Speech-Language Pathology Assistant to meet the requisite requirements for authorization in the state of Colorado and to develop the skills to work under the supervision of a MA Level Speech-Language Pathology Assistant.
Engineering Graduate Professional Certificates
Several departments in the College of Engineering and Applied Science offer graduate professional certificates that are available for enrollment by non-degree students. Visit the department webpages for information on how to apply:
- Embedded Systems Engineering Certificate
- Interdisciplinary Telecom Program Certificates
- Power Electronics Certificate
Professional Renewable Energy Certificate
Designed in collaboration with the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and the Environmental Studies Program, the RASEI Professional Certificate provides working professionals and lifelong learners with an in-depth study of renewable and sustainable energy technologies, policies, and business—the cornerstones of this rapidly growing industry. The certificate provides students, working professionals, and alternative energy practitioners with the background and skills to begin or advance careers in renewable and sustainable energy. You will learn from engaging and experienced experts in the field, collaborate with graduate students from across the CU campus, and network with other professional students who share your interests. You can take the courses in person or online through state-of-the-art distance learning technology, and our program and instructors are flexible and responsive to the needs of working professionals around the world.
Upon completing this three-course program, participants receive nine graduate-level credits and earn a professional certificate granted by the University of Colorado Boulder, a Tier 1 research institution. In addition, these course credits may be counted towards the ten courses required for the Engineering Management Program's (EMP) Master of Engineering (ME) degree, or toward the Renewable and Sustainable Energy specialization track within the Masters of the Environment degree.

The mainland is rendered down
silvers and is gone.
My heart is green and raw – a pea not a heart –
front to the fire back to the wind.
The groan of stone on stone unsettles
me as I unsettle them.
A passing orca's generator heart opens
and closes the island like a door.
Behind me green bush is a swaying glossary
I could lose myself in –
leaf bird tree feather bone
rock ponga pebble koru stone
bone-fire oil-lamp song
heart gale right whale wrong.

Sorry, I kind of posted everything backwards today!
a couple of you have asked about where I get my oatmeal and cracked wheat and what brand they are
I will snap a picture of the packages and post it for you tomorrow!
doesn't it look yummy?
I made some steak tacos for dinner
we ate them on Saturday and Sunday
I just used a fairly inexpensive steak cut
first I tenderized it
cut it into chunks and cooked it in a skillet with
olive oil, a clove of garlic and some taco seasoning
when it was done, I cut it up even smaller
I also made the salsa again to go with it
We finally sold a table and chair set we had
to our fun, cute neighbors
there was an Earth Day celebration at the park on the weekend
we went and listened to a friends band play
we also went and saw the movie 'Date Night'
it made me laugh a lot!
this bread is so good
it is a sun dried tomato and herb bread (Smith's Marketplace)
some roasted chicken, spinach, mozzarella...

Bob Evans CEO resigns
New Albany, Ohio – Steve Davis has resigned as CEO of Bob Evans Farms Inc. by mutual agreement with the board of directors. The official change will take place immediately, but Davis will remain with the company through the end of the year to assist with the transition process.
Bob Evans has established an interim Office of the Chief Executive while a search is conducted for a new CEO. The office is to be filled by Mark Hood, CFO, and Mike Townsley, president of the Bob Evans Foods business unit. Both will remain in their current positions. The board has also formed a Transition Committee, consisting of independent directors Mary Kay Haben, Doug Benham, and Larry McWilliams, with Haben serving as the chair of the committee.
"The independent directors unanimously concluded that as the company strives to improve performance, it would benefit from new leadership and enhanced execution," Haben said.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, Bob Evans reported net sales and same-store sales that were beneath Wall Street expectations, and also reported a slight decline in profits.
Sherwin-Williams paints store No. 4,000
After announcing new partnerships with HGTV and Lowe's, as well as three consecutive quarters of record growth, Sherwin-Williams is celebrating another milestone.
The company announced it is opening its 4,000th store in Sewickley, Pa.
"The opening of Sherwin-Williams' 4,000th store is a landmark occasion for our company," said Chris Connor, chairman and CEO of Sherwin-Williams. "Sherwin-Williams is committed to delivering an exceptional painting experience to homeowners and professionals alike. We also believe in making a positive difference in the communities we serve and look forward to showing our support for Sewickley and the surrounding boroughs in the coming years."
In honor of the 4,000th store, Sherwin-Williams announced it will donate $40,000 to Austin's Playroom Project, an initiative of the Mario Lemieux Foundation. The funds will furnish interactive iPad tables in 10 hospital playrooms in the Pittsburgh area and across the country.
Austin's Playroom Project seeks to benefit families and improve the quality of a child's hospital experience — whether as a visitor or patient — by furnishing cheerful playrooms that are safe, calming and comfortable. The playrooms feature Sherwin-Williams paints, such as Optimistic Yellow (SW 6900), Sundance (SW 6897) and Exciting Orange (SW 6647).
For the third quarter Sherwin-Williams reported net sales increased 10.6% to $3.15 billion. Net sales in the Paint Stores Group jumped 15.0%. Net income for the third quarter increased to $326.2 million, up from $263.0 million.

For the past week or so I have been trying to troubleshoot why there is no SMART info available from my drives.
There are two SATA drives on an ASUS A8V Deluxe motherboard. The drives are on the VIA SATA Raid controller (but they are not configured as RAID). The BIOS is picking up the drives on the serial channels 0 and 1 (and there is nothing detected on Primary/Secondary IDE master/slave)
The first drive is a Western Digital
WD740GD and it does support smart as indicated here:
Built for enterprise environments – includes Enterprise Extensions S.M.A.R.T. Accessed
(EESA), an expanded command set that provides SCSI-like control for server environments,
as well as Rotary Acceleration Feed Forward (RAFF™) that optimizes operation and
performance when the drives are used in vibration-prone multi-drive systems, such as
rack-mounted servers.
The second drive is a Seagate Seagate ST380817AS and it does support smart as indicated on page 33 here:
The WD740 is the boot drive with windows 2000 installed on it. The Seagate is a backup drive on a removable tray (so it is not always on)
1. I have attempted several HD monitoring utilities and none is able to accurately detect SMART info out of the drives. Most utilities report that SMART is not supported, but at the same time they give some values in the attributes screens. These values are probably bogus because both drives are shown with identical SMART attributes which is a suspicious behavior.
Utilities I tried so far
Lavalys Everest
HardDrive Inspector
WesternDigital Data Lifeguard tools
Personal SmartCheck
2. In the process of troubleshooting I discovered this article:
So I took out the WesternDigital drive and changed the jumper as indicated. However, this had no effect at all.
(Also, the seagate drive has no such jumper)
3. Updated all VIA drivers for this motherboard to the latest Hyperion drivers
4. I tried to run smartmontools on windows2000 and I get something like this:
C:\>smartctl -a /dev/hda
smartctl version 5.37 [i686-mingw32-2000-sp4] Copyright (C) 2002-6 Bruce Allen
Home page is
Model Family: Western Digital Raptor family
Device Model: WDC WD740GD-32FLA0
Serial Number: WD-WMAKE1024101
Firmware Version: 21.08U21
User Capacity: 9,126,807,040 bytes
Device is: In smartctl database [for details use: -P show]
ATA Version is: 1
ATA Standard is: Exact ATA specification draft version not indicated
Local Time is: Sat Apr 21 14:34:44 2007 EDT
SMART is only available in ATA Version 3 Revision 3 or greater.
We will try to proceed in spite of this.
SMART support is: Ambiguous - ATA IDENTIFY DEVICE words 82-83 don't show if SMAR
T supported.
Checking for SMART support by trying SMART ENABLE command.
SMART ENABLE appeared to work! Continuing.
SMART support is: Ambiguous - ATA IDENTIFY DEVICE words 85-87 don't show if SMAR
T is enabled.
A mandatory SMART command failed: exiting. To continue, add one or more '-T perm
issive' options.
I am not sure why it says ATA version=1 and then "SMART is only available in ATA Version 3".
This drive is a second generation serial ATA and should have should have full SMART support as indicated in the links mentioned earlier. No ?
5. To make sure it is not a Windows issue or a driver issue ... I booted from a Knoppix 5.10 liveCD and run smartmontools through that. The drives were being picked up as sdba1 and sdba2, but the error persisted "A mandatory SMART command failed"
6. Send an email to ASUS support, but as I was asking about drives they sent me a canned response (something completely irrelevant about system stability and memory ... so I do not expect them to be of any help)
>From your experience, have you seen a problem like this before ? Do you think there is any chance I will be able to reliably access the SMART data of these drives ? Should I give up ?
Many thanks in advance and apologies for the lengthy text.

The Meridian Bridge Plaza has become a beautiful, fun attraction for Yankton.
Throughout the day, I see children enjoying the splash pad. My Facebook feed is filled with pictures posted by parents of their kids playing in the water. I've been there at 10 p.m., and it is filled with children and parents.
Soon, I believe, the plaza will be treated with the same reverence and pride Yankton residents and visitors accord to the Meridian Bridge.
And in doing so, it will be tempting to believe that the plaza we have today (and which will continue to evolve) was inevitable.
But that would be a mistake.
If there is a lesson to be learned from the project, it is this: If you think Yankton not only deserves but NEEDS more amenities like the Meridian Bridge Plaza, your energy and voice is needed.
The plaza is the result of years of planning and debate. Parties involved included City of Yankton staff, the Yankton City Commission, Keep Yankton Beautiful, The Meridian Plaza Master Planning Committee, RDG Planning and Design and probably some others that I've overlooked.
Various proposals were reviewed and amended before the plaza became a reality.
I admit, I was frustrated as a journalist and Yankton citizen with how long the process took to unfold, because even though there were good plans — and funds — it still took many years to accept that the Meridian Bridge was a draw for people and that the plaza was a needed amenity.
Planning for the plaza began in 2006 with RDG Planning and Design, and those concepts were presented for public comment. In fundamental ways, the ideas presented in "Two Bridges to the Future" are representative of the plaza we have today.
In addition, much of the money used to pay for the plaza was earmarked and set aside by the city before the Meridian Bridge conversion was even complete. Although the money was slated generally for "downtown improvements," the intent from the beginning was that it would be used for the bridge plaza area.
The Meridian Bridge opened to pedestrian and bicycle traffic in November 2011. A decision was then made by the City Commission in 2012 to build a sidewalk but little else in the plaza area before entertaining further development. The simple trail feature was considered a "canvas" upon which future plans could be added.
At a January 2014 meeting, the commission discussed the Meridian Plaza Master Planning Committee proposal and decided it needed to be pared down before construction due to the estimated costs.
Despite the delay, Commissioner Craig Sommer, who also served on the committee, was adamant that work proceed on the plaza.
"The money was put away years ago to make sure we had it when we got to this point," he said. "They whole point of that plaza was to become a tourist attraction — a place people would come to in Yankton to go sit at, see it and walk it. I'd hate to see another year go by where we fiddle with numbers, look at plans and get no bids let and no work done. Every year we wait, we're losing more of this project to the cost of building materials going up."
It was August 2014 before the City Commission approved a $523,800 contract to build the plaza we have today.
The discussion at the meeting included the following exchange according to the Press & Dakotan:
But there was some hesitation on the part of some commissioners (to approve the contract).
Commissioner Pauline Akland said she was unsure of a water spraying feature that was planned to be included, citing a picture she'd seen of a similar feature at Wall Drug.
"Everybody was walking around (the water jets) because nobody wanted to get wet," Akland said. "It's no secret that I have not been in favor of the spray jets or the fountain down in front of the bridge. I've accepted the fact that we're moving ahead with the fountain, but I still feel the spray jets and the water feature there is not the place to spend the money. I've always felt that should be done at the pool. (The plaza is) just not the place for it to be.
Additionally, she argued that businesses may have objections to the feature as well.
"You expect this to bring a lot of people into the community and spend time down there, and then you expect them to go downtown and spend their money," she said. "What business owner is going to want wet children in their business place or a restaurant, or wherever?"
Well, fortunately, the plaza has been getting plenty of use as kids go out of their way to walk through the water jets — again and again.
The sound of those kids playing echoes around the downtown and provides a sign of youthful life that is too often lacking in the area.
The Meridian Bridge is in every sense Yankton's connection between its history and the future. It is a monument to the industriousness of our ancestors and a call to action for our generation to aspire to something great.
If you think that is going to happen through magical thinking and the inevitability of progress, let the example of the Meridian Bridge Plaza cure you of that belief.
Go to the plaza, listen to the joy it inspires in our young residents and resolve to make your voice heard on these quality of life issues — again and again. We don't have another 10 years to patiently await for the next step of downtown and riverfront development (Note: I'm happy to report the next phase of the Meridian Plaza construction is already under way!).
I don't want to be a community where people ask, "Why don't we have that?" I want to be a community where people ask, "How in the world did we get that?"
Interesting and inspiring public places such as the plaza that bring a wide variety of people together cultivate a community's soul and give individuals pride and ownership in the place they live. We need more of that to strengthen the character of our community, and we need it sooner rather than later.

"He was 100 gms underweight & I can't find anything at this stage wrong so he is just in a warm bed resting, eating, drinking, peeing, pooping and loving it.
His name is Billy Boy the Bride Groom as the young lass that stopped & rescued him is getting married in a few weeks and Billy is the bride groom to be. He is just so gorgeous with those Betty Davis eyes."

Anyone using IDDES
Hi all,
I was wondering whether anyone is using IDDES using the IDDESdelta in LESProperties. I have applied IDDES to two different cases and the results were not exactly what I would expect them to be (compared to the case in the original paper). So I started digging into the code in order to check the implementation.
In line 77 in src/turbulenceModels/.../SpalartAllmarasIDDES/IDDESdelta/IDDESDelta.C, I found something which does not make sense in my opinion.
The variable deltamax= 2*deltamaxTemp is currently defined as a scalar which is obtained as the maximum cell dimension that appears in the whole domain.
To my understanding deltamax should be a FIELD variable (deltamax=hmax = max(dx,dy,dz)) and should be put inside of the loop over all the cells in the domain.
What do you guys think?
... yes, we are ... and massivley so ... and ... I am shocked...
Hi Markus,
thanks for the hint!!!
deltamax is the maximum grid cell edge length in the orignal formulation for delta for IDDES and it is used in
What do others think!?
However, do not forget, that the hybrid numerics which is an important ingredient for a DES is not implemented. This might also explain that you do not achieve the results you want to achieve!? We will present this additional implementation with some results in Gothenburg, however, the results have to be checked carefully, now, and a possible influence of this mistake will have to be evaluated.
Best regards, Ulf.
Delta in IDDES
Dear Markus and Ulf,
I can confirm that the h_max in the IDDES Delta formula should be a local measure of the maximum cell length, not the global maximum. I also agree that this won't be a problem for decaying, isotropic turbulence on a uniform mesh. It also won't be a problem when running a channel flow on the usual kind of structured grid. For anything real however, it will usually be a big problem.
Thanks very much for bringing this to our attention!
It would be very good to plot the value of Delta in the field, then you can be sure what is happening and also sure that your remedy is effective.
Out of interest, what cases have you been running to test the IDDES in OF? I'd be very interested in seeing some results if you wish to share them.
Best regards,
code adjustement available
Hi Markus,
do you already have an adjustment of the code for IDDESDelta that you can provide to this forum? My last post of code adjustment for solving unsteady flows with arbitrarily large time steps is some weeks ago - so it might be my turn again ;). However, at the moment other topics are pressing much more, so it might take some days. Nonetheless, I would like to update our running computations as soon as possible....
Best regards, Ulf.
I am glad to hear that at least some people agree with me.
I have submitted a bug report about this issue a long time ago but no one was interrested in fixing that bug at that time.
Ulf: You have mentioned that you have also observed some unexpected behviour of IDDES. I would be very interested to hear more details about that.
Charles: I was using IDDES for a channel flow and a tandem cylinder configuration.
Best regards,
Our observations
Hi Markus,
what we computed so far is, decay of isotropic turbulence, inviscid isotropic turbulence, and a NACA-profile wake flow for high angle of attack. Based on several comparisons that Charlie has made he found the behavior of our IDDES too diffusive for the wake flow. This, however, was only one of the observations, so we have to perform more computations, especially for a very long time to have statistically significant data. The dissipative behavior can be explained by the wrong delta, but this has to be evaluated in detail.
Best regards, Ulf.

Here is a small modification in IDDESDelta.C that changes deltamax into a field instead of a scalar. I would be happy to hear from anyone who tries it.
anything else wrong in IDDES implementation?! hmax in SpalartAllmarasIDDES.C
Dear Fabian, dear all,
there are some more peculiarities in the IDDES implementation regarding the value hmax in the turbulence model itself that we are now checking in detail. In case anyone has already checked or confirmed that and found some/none/more/less mistakes, please let us know.
E.g., in SpalartAllmarasIDDES.C we find for alpha:
tmp<volScalarField> SpalartAllmarasIDDES::alpha() const
Best regards, Ulf.
Hi Ulf,
I have to agree with you - I don't think the present alpha() is correct.
In fact, I have checked the IDDES implemantation a while ago and I have changed alpha() such that it uses hmax (deltamax) as computed in IDDESDelta.C instead of dimLength, max(cmptMax(delta())))
Dear Markus,
I'm also interested in this topic. As mentioned before the h_max used in the alpha-calculation should be a local value as well?
Thanks, Christian.
yes that is correct - hmax should be a local value and not a single value for the whole domain. I am not sure whether that as already been corrected in the file IDDESDelata.C for the latest 1.7.x release.
Dear All,
I'm very interested to know how you have got on with IDDES in OpenFOAM since your last posts? I'm currently looking at using it for incompressible flow over the Ahmed body, and am wondering if you have come across any other problems with the current implementation?
EDIT: I've had a look at alpha() and it appears it hasn't been changed yet in the latest 1.7.x. Markus please could you tell me what changes you made to use deltamax from IDDESDelta?
IDDES bugs in Openfoam 201
1 Attachment(s)
Dear all,
I'm using IDDES in OpenFOAM 201, but I'm not sure whether the alpha and delta bugs have been removed - I don't have enough experience with C to go by my opinion alone, so I'd be grateful for your advice.
see attached code from OF 201
Lines 45-52 of SpalartAllmarasIDDES.C:
tmp<volScalarField> SpalartAllmarasIDDES::alpha() const
what about the bugs, are they fixed in OpenFOAM-2.1.1?
By the way, the IDDESDelta is missing in the OpenFOAM user guide.
Here what is written inside user guide
I set them with the help of literature to
cw 0.15;
deltaCoeff 1;
inside LESProperties.
RANS/LES Region.
1 Attachment(s)
Dear All,
As it looks like there are lot of DES users here I have decided to ask my questions here,
I have good experience with RANS simulations and reasonable experience with LES simulations, it is due to some time constraints have started using DES recently and I have started with IDDES.
- I am using DES for flow around an airfoil !
- Can some one tell me what criteria is that the IDDES looks at before switching to LES and RANS, for my case i feel the LES regions are the wrong regions.
- If it is mesh density !! what ratio of the density is it ? and how do I calculate and define it !!. does the LES region have to be highly dense or the RANS region has to be highly Dense ?
- because as of now the LES appears to be on the coarse regions of the mesh only !! that doesnt make sense LES requires DENSE mesh right ?
- I have been playing with this for more than a month but still unsuccessfull results in getting LES and RANS in the regions I particularly want.
eg. Image attached, the LES is in the wake of the airfoil, I want LES everywhere except at the airfoil close to the wall regions.
Can some one please help me,
Thanks for your time and Effort.
If the post here hasnt given enough information, I have also posted a similar question here http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post576089
Hasan K.J
Hey Hasan,
the IDDES model is quite complex and it has been a while ago since I dealt with it.
In general, RANS should be applied next to the wall where the mesh density is high.
LES should be applied in regions far away from the wall where the mesh density is lower.
The IDDES model does not only take into account geometrical properties but also flow properties (turbulent eddy viscosity) to compute the switch between RANS and LES.
For a more detailed explanation, have a look at the Paper of Shur, Spalart, Strelets and Travin in the Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow from 2008.
As far as I know, the IDDES model implemented in OpenFOAM is the same as stated in this paper.
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards

The emergence of "regular and predictable" as a Treasury debt management strategy
During the 1970s, U.S. Treasury officials revised the framework within which they selected the maturities of new notes and bonds. Previously, they chose maturities on an offering-by-offering basis. By 1982, the Treasury had ceased these "tactical" sales and was selling notes and bonds on a "regular and predictable" schedule. This article describes that key change in the Treasury's debt management strategy. The author shows that in 1975, Treasury officials financed an unusually rapid expansion of the federal deficit with a flurry of tactical offerings. Because the timing and maturities of the offerings followed no predictable pattern, the sales sometimes took investors by surprise, disrupting the market. These events led Treasury officials to embrace a more regularized program of regular and predictable issuance - a program they had been using for decades to auction bills. The Treasury's switch to regular and predictable issuance of notes and bonds was widely praised for reducing the element of surprise in Treasury offering announcements, facilitating investor planning, and decreasing Treasury borrowing costs.
