Buford dam park near Lake Lanier - Address and hours

This is a really good park. Most of the information about this park can be found online. However, two pieces of information are missing -

1. There is not precise address for the park. If you are driving on buford dam park rd from north, keep an eye on the left side. The board for buford dam park is pretty small and could be missed. The board also reads Lanier Park management in bigger font.

2. When we enter the park a wall on the right hand side reads that the park closes at 4:30pm. However, this is not correct. If you go inside to buy the parking permit you will know that the park closes at 10pm. The good thing is that the beach is pretty much empty after 4:30pm. (based on one visit to the park in August.)

ANSYS - avoiding of the verify prompt - trick

A way to simulate multiple cases with varying parameters in ANSYS is here!

I wanted to use a simple *DO loop for those but everytime I /clear the database and start a new one, ANSYS would ask me to verify it. Searching the internet and the help did not help. ANSYS seems to have no simple way to get rid of it.

This is the solution I came up with -
1. Initialize the file with /clear in the beginning, ANSYS asks for verification for the very first time (you have to say "yes" for the very first time)
2. Then save this initial database by SAVE,DATA,....
3. Introduce parameters and code the loop
4. Before ending the loop, use PARSAV,... to save the parameters to some file (your results can be parameter arrays; use *GET to save the results as parameters).
5. Then resume the initial database by RESUME, DATA,... (This virtually deletes your database)
6. Now, resume the parameters by PARRES to recover the loop parameters and result parameters.
7. *ENDDO the loops and run the simulation. After the simulations are done, just open the file where the parameters are saved and you have all your results there.

Hope it helps!!! Enjoy ANSYSing!!

How many people visited my website?

Sometimes, I wonder if people visit my website at all. The "look, what I have done"- feeling is common to every art, and even science, I guess. One who writes wants others to read it, one who composes a piece of music wants others to listen to it, one who discovers something publishes it. A creation is nothing if it is not appreciated. Internet is a very effective tool to publish one's work. (A good prelude for a SSC English paper ends here :D)

Let me come to the point. While surfing on the web, I found the sitemeter on one of the good marathi blogs (मी अनु). This meter may be technically very simple (for the techies) but is very useful. It tells you who's logged on, which sites they came from, where on earth they are located, how many times is the page visited in last so many days/hours etc. And its free! Its pretty amazing.
