[CIG-SHORT] visualize velocity vectors with paraview

[Brad Aagaard]

Jiangning-

When the problem contains a fault, the solution field contains forces 
associated with the Lagrange multipliers in the cohesive cells. See 
http://www.geodynamics.org/pipermail/cig-short/2008-January/000288.html for 
more information. We have eliminated this issue in the development version 
and hope to release version 1.1 in the next few weeks.

Regards,
Brad
