Windows has stopped booting. Advice needed please!
My PC has two SATA drives, for storage, and two 128GB SSDs. One of the SSDs has Microsoft Flight Simulator (FS9) installed on it. The second is divided into two partitions: the first has the O/S, the second Microsoft Flight Simulator X (FSX).
The first sign of trouble was when aircraft fuselage textures stopped loading in FS9. Eventually, when this didn't clear, I decided to reboot. After I did so, the FS9 SSD was completely missing from My Computer. Tried rebooting a couple more times. No joy, and the Asus BIOS splash screen was taking ages to move onto the Windows is starting up phase, so I assumed that the drive had failed. I unplugged the faulty SSD, and all was OK. For two or three reboots...
Then, rebooting once again a little later, all I got was, after the BIOS splash screen, a black screen with one line of strange characters. A few letters and numbers there, but mostly stuff like you might find in Wingdings font, musical notes, patterns and shapes. I took a photo of this. I can post it if really needed, but don't expect the exact string will help much. It's the same string of characters every time..
I booted using a BartPE DVD and went into the explorer utility. The O/S drive itself is clearly OK (it would be a bit much for both to fail in 30 minutes!) as both partitions on it, the one with the O/S and the one with FSX, are accessible in BartPE and I can browse through the various folders.
Also, the small System Reserved partition with a folder called 'Boot' and the bootmgr & Bootsect.bak files are there too.
I tried the boot repair option from the original Windows 7 x64 installation disc, but after running for some time and then telling me I should try to reboot, I got the same string of characters as before.
If the C drive and the System Reserved drive are there OK, any ideas why am I getting that string of characters and the PC won't boot any further? Another hardware problem somewhere???
I looked in the BIOS itself, but apart from the FS9 SSD not being listed, I saw no difference; but I am not too sure what I am looking for there to be honest.
Thanks for any help with troubleshooting this.

Work through the steps for Troubleshooting Windows 7 Failure to Start since infection cannot be ruled out and the normal repair routine might not work if it's infected.
Test the SSD's with the manufacturer's firmware. Check for firmware upgrade.
|My System Specs

OK, I'll work through that (will take some time I guess) and post back. Thanks.
|My System Specs
|14 Nov 2013
OK, very first step: I unplugged my two SATA drives (the faulty SSD was already unplugged) and rebooted. The PC went straight into Windows as normal!! I am going to take advantage of this and make an up-to-date System image onto an external HDD whilst I am in Windows. I'll run an anti-virus scan and then with Malwarebytes too. Then I'll reconnect each of the SATA drives and take things from there. If that causes the boot failure again I'll post straight back.
I wonder what this implies, as the two SATA drives themselves had no problems in themselves (I checked them with Hard Disk Sentinel as soon as the problems started today. 100% clean)..
|My System Specs
|14 Nov 2013
sounds like your sata controller on your motherboard may be going bad or a drive is causing it to hang at times. what motherboard is it? is it the Asus P6X58D-E ? are your ssd's in the gray (marvel) ports?
|My System Specs
|14 Nov 2013
.. are your ssd's in the gray (marvel) ports?
No, should they be??
I found that the PC booted OK if only the SSD with the O/S on it was installed. Plugging in either of the two SATA drives stopped the from PC booting. I went into the BIOS, with one SATA plugged in to see if it was recognised (it was) and to check settings, but I made no alterations there. For some odd reason, the PC then booted fine & the SATA drive was recognised in Explorer.
Then plugged the second drive (also 1TB) in and the system said it needed to run checkdisk, which has been running for over two hours now, "Fixing incorrect information in file record segment ...". Seems to be doing this for every single segment - it's past 500000 now - it could run all night! I'll let chkdsk run to completion of course and post back what happens.
So, should I plug my O/S SSD into the grey Marvel connector?? Can you direct me towards the info about this? Googling it for the past 15 minutes hasn't helped... The PC was constructed with the connections as they are now...
One problem I have - I have posted about this here before, but was unable to fix it - is that my O/S disk is only Disk0 in Disk Management when no other drive is plugged into the M/B. When I add a drive, the O/S drive becomes Disk1 or 2 or lower and the data/backup SATA drive bcomes disk0. Not sure if that's a factor, and even if it is, what I can do about it, short of wiping everyting and starting again (a very, very, very last resort with my setup for various reasons).
|My System Specs
|14 Nov 2013
the gray ones are your sata 3 ports so i would since your ssd's should be sata 3 and would get better performance
|My System Specs
|14 Nov 2013
Well, one of the SSDs is, I think, defunct.
I'll try plugging the O/S drive in there, once I get the SATA drives sorted out.
You say my SSDs should be SATA3. How to tell?
|My System Specs
|14 Nov 2013
Remember to assure the correct HD you want to boot is set first HD to boot in BIOS setup.
Are you booting your choice of OS HD's via the BIOS or using a Windows Boot Menu?
With all drives plugged in please post back a screenshot of Disk Management - Post a Screen Capture Image.
To get the System to boot with all HD's plugged, assure that the OS drive marked System Active is set as the first HDD to boot in BIOS setup.
|My System Specs
|15 Nov 2013
In the BIOS the SSD with the O/S is set as the first disk to boot. I have now plugged it into a grey Marvell SATA3 port and in the BIOS I have gone into Onboard device Configuration and set the Marvell 9128 Controller to AHCI Mode. I think that is correct, no?
Checkdisk ran all night, "Fixing incorrect information in file record segment ..." then changing security IDs. The result is that the drive has been wiped clean! Great!!! All that is left is a file, bootsqm.dat. Any ideas why this is the case? Again, I have all the data that was on the drive backed up (I think!) but why has checkdisk removed every folder and file that was partition? I wasn't expecting that.
Are you booting your choice of OS HD's via the BIOS or using a Windows Boot Menu? I don't see what you mean by that - I am not in a multi-boot setup and have only one OS HD. I attach a screenshot of my Disk Management. As soon as I connect a SATA HDD, the SSD drive (with the 'System reserved' Partition and The C drive) is kicked off the Disk0 spot.
The PC boots OK now - I get a new Marvell info screen during the boot process, but I suppose that is normal.
Assuming the SSD on which I had FS9 is indeed dead (still a few tests to do) I was thinking about replacing it with a hybrid drive, like this one:
Plugs into SATA3 port too I think?
A good choice, in people's opinion?

About Sarah Maddison & Roger Newman-Coburn
Sarah and Roger have been running Trédèdé as a successful Chambre d'Hotes for some years and have 25 years experience in the hospitality business. Now we are getting older we have decided to explore the rental market.
Sarah Maddison & Roger Newman-Coburn purchased this villa in 2006
Why Sarah Maddison & Roger Newman-Coburn chose Cabrerets
We love the stunning natural beauty of this area and the peaceful ambiance. The position of the house, by the river, makes it special to us and the friendly village is just the right distance away for a pleasant stroll.
What makes this villa unique
This property is ideal for an extended family or group of friends, or it provides spacious accommodation for a smaller group. It is situated in the countryside by the river without being too remote from the shops and restaurants in Cabrerets.
Cabrerets is a pretty French village with two obligatory Chateaux - the old and the 'new' .The village festival in August with fireworks and pageantry is not to be missed.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
So far, the staff has been very professional and helpful and I like each one of my children's teacher. They made great impressions the first week. So far, so good.
My son was in a pre-K blended classroom last year. We could not have asked for a better experience. His teacher really connected with him and with us. The entire pre-K team seemed to work well together to create a nurturing environment that encourages children to learn and lets them know they are loved. Our son met the majority of his IEP goals and we are very grateful to his teacher for her help with his progress.

For sixteen years, Amy worked as a classroom teacher—beginning her career at Peninsula Year-Round School and concluding it at Wilson High School. As a classroom teacher, she witnessed firsthand the power that the integration of the visual and performing arts has on learning. She watched once reluctant students thrive when given the opportunity to express themselves visually or through performance. And, as a high school student who transferred between her sophomore and junior year, taking an Introduction to Humanities class helped Amy to find a sense of place and purpose. That one class inspired her to study art history at Oberlin College and to be a teacher. Recently, Amy returned to the classroom as a student and participated in the Independent Publishing Resource Center's Writing Certificate Program. For her final project, she published a collection of essays entitled GLOSSARY. Prior to becoming Implementation Manager, Amy worked as an Arts Integration Coach for The Right Brain Initiative, bringing together many of the things she loves—collaboration, inquiry, creativity, and the arts.

The Girls of Tokyo Game Show
A week ago Muken and I went to the Tokyo Game Show 2006. Games are sometimes somewhat interesting but don't usually look too nice in photos, and the only interesting stuff in my humble non-hardcore-gamer-otaku opinion was the Sony pavillion, but they put signs everywhere to forbid pictures to be shot.
So, I went with the crowd, and shot the booth girls instead…
See all 70 girls in this photoset.

The St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Office wants everyone to have a fun and safe Halloween. Below are a few things you can do to keep you and your family safe.
"In St. Landry Parish, there are approximately 166 registered sex offenders. Before you bring your children out for Halloween, we have made it easy for you to see exactly where these offenders live," says Sheriff Bobby J. Guidroz said.
St. Landry residents are encouraged to visit www.slpsheriff.com to see who the registered sex offenders are and where they are living.
"Our investigators work very hard at making sure these offenders live where they tell us they are living. All you have to do is go to our website and find "Sex Offender Registry." You can enter an address and it will map out exactly where an offender lives near you," says Sheriff Guidroz.
You will also find many other beneficial tools such as the ability to sign up for FREE automatic email notifications informing you if an offender moves within a specified radius of any address you register.
"We want to remind our drivers to slow down and be especially cautious in residential neighborhoods. Children are excited on Halloween and may move in unpredictable ways," added Sheriff Guidroz

The left´s lack of knowledge of economics is on full display with the income inequality redistribution scam. For the socialists, income and growth in the standard of living is preceded by capital formation, which capital is formed by the sacrifices of those that have saved their income. So shut up, and get out of here with the lies.

Todd Palin Turned Down Dancing With the Starsby Free Britney at . Comments
Todd Palin, husband of Sarah and father of Bristol, was approached for this season of Dancing With the Stars as well, the former Alaska Governor said.
Bristol Palin has survived three weeks thus far on the current season, but was she even the dance competition's first choice among her own family?
"They wanted Todd to be on the show," Sarah Palin said at a Houston, Tex. speaking engagement. "I think that would have been cool to see, too."
Coming next season to DWTS: Todd Palin?!
The politician didn't say whether producers originally wanted him instead of Bristol, or in addition to the teenage mother of 18-month-old Tripp.
Bristol is doing great in any case, Sarah reports: "She is way out of her element, out of her comfort zone, and she is the first to admit that."
Would Sarah herself ever compete? Only if they incorporated basketball.
"They would have to let me dribble back and forth and maybe pivot and do a jump shot or something as part of the routine," she quipped.
NEWS Todd Palin and Shailey Tripp are sleeping together,. Rumor has it he paid her for sex. Google Todd Palin Shailey Tripp
Google todd palin and shailey tripp
So Sarah was first choice and declined. Todd was Sarah's suggestion but he turned it down. Now we have Bristol who was passed the offer by Sarah's publicity agent contacting DWTS. What's next--Willow or Piper next season. The never ending saga of the Wasilla Nit Wits who wannabee celebrities.
I think this ranks right up there with Sarah Palin telling about the death panels for health care. Everyone questioned why Bristol was invited to be on Dancing with the Stars--whether or not her Star was because she was an unmarried teenager who became pregnant and her Mother said it was because she was a role model to all of today's youth. What are we supposed to believe about Todd--chosen because he is an unemployed husband who enjoys the good life with lots of airplanes and snow machines and girl friends and is laughing all the way to the bank?

Growing Guide Rosa (Standards)
Potting a bareroot standard. Our Rosa standards are shipped bareroot. They can be planted in the ground or in a container. If you plant them in a container, we recommend that you start with a pot that measures 10-12 inches in diameter. Use a fast-draining potting mix specifically designed for containers.
Staking a standard. To keep your standard standing, put it out of reach of strong winds and support it with a stake that has a diameter at least as large as the stem's and long enough that when plunged into the pot or the ground it reaches inside the head. Fasten the standard to the stake at several points with twine or plastic ties looped in a figure eight around stem and stake. Check the ties periodically. Loosen them if they constrict the outward growth of the stem.
Pruning and repotting. Maintain the shape of the head with selective pinching of the new shoots (overzealous pinching will prevent the formation of flower buds). Pinch each shoot between thumb and forefinger or cut with pruning shears; do not shear the plant as though it were a hedge. If you find that a standard in a container dries out quickly after watering, the plant probably needs a larger pot. Lift it from its current pot, make four deep vertical cuts in the root ball, and place it in a new pot that is 2 inches wider and taller than the old one, filling in around the root ball with fresh potting mix. Water thoroughly after repotting.
Container care. Plants in containers dry out more quickly than plants in the ground; in the heat of summer, you may have to water them daily. To decrease the need to water, we suggest incorporating a superabsorbent gel into the potting mix. With frequent watering, nutrients wash out the bottom of the pot. We recommend that you mix a timed-release fertilizer into the potting mix before you add the mix to the container. In addition, we suggest you water with a balanced (20-20-20), watersoluble fertilizer, mixed as directed, but at halfstrength, applied once a month through August.
Overwintering a standard. Most standards require special care to overwinter. Our Rosa standards, although quite cold-hardy in its natural form, need winter protection where temperatures dip below 10°F. After frost induces it to go dormant, a standard in a container may be kept in an unheated basement or garage where temperatures range between 25 and 40°F. Check the potting mix occasionally for moisture, and water as needed.
A standard grown in the ground may be potted in the fall and overwintered as above, or it may be laid on its side and buried in a shallow trench. Although the second technique sounds incredible, devoted standard growers in cold climates swear by it. Begin by pruning the stems in the head back to just 6-8 inches. Then dig a trench at the foot of the standard that is as long as the standard is tall and as deep as the diameter of the shorn head. With a spade, slice a circle 2 feet in diameter around the base of the main stem to loosen the plant's hold on the soil. Tip the standard into the trench, fill the trench with soil (burying the plant), and mound additional soil above. In spring, unearth the plant and stand it back up for another season of beauty.
Rosa Polar Joy Standard. Rosa Polar Joy is hardy to zone 4 and is grown on its own-root, which means unlike grafted Rose standards, this one is suitable to be left in the ground for the winter. If you plan on using Polar Joy in a container we recommend overwintering the standard as if it were grafted (see instructions for overwintering a standard above). Even though the Rose is hardy it will need time to establish itself in the ground before facing the winter.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) - Duff Beer and Lard Lad Donuts - those mainstays of Homer Simpson's diet - are now a reality. So is Springfield, the mythical city from the hit animated TV show, "The Simpsons."
It's all part of a recently-opened Simpsons-themed area at Universal Orlando called Springfield. Built around "The Simpsons" ride that opened in 2008, the new zone is heavy on tasty but unhealthy food featured on the show - although there is a nod to Lisa Simpson's love of salads in the food court.
Universal has slowly added to this area for a few years. There's a new ride - the Kang and Kodos Twirl-n-Hurl - and a food court. The most popular item? Krusty Burgers.
For Duff Beer lovers, there's Moe's Tavern, a replica of the show's watering hole.

Peter Fillingham:
My favourite year, the best work I ever made.
Seashells, pebbles, monkey nuts, glass bottles, coloured cotton, slide projection. 2008
Sometimes it takes a simple object to remind you of what people mean to you. A swing reminds you of your childhood best-friend, a piece of soap to your grandmother..
Peter Fillingham plays with these emotions. The shape of the object, its smell, how it feels, it can start a flow of memories and emotions.
"'My favourite year, the best work I ever made' is a display of four art works, which are still in the process of being made but are not exactly unfinished. The works are shown in a simple form and are more of an enquiry for me; they are four individual statements.
The first slide projection is a sculpture, which relates to my time spent on a Finnish island with friends.
The cotton sheets, refers to my ambition to work with four separate camping groups, still very much in early stages.
The shell, pebble and monkey nut bottles are a homage to my friend, a way of thinking things through.
The second slide projection is the first attempt to photograph a small section of my collection of Christmas objects. These images were taken in a parish hall in my home town."
My favourite year, the best work I ever made, displays four art works which are still in progress, they are presented at a certain moment in their existence but will continue to progress. Shown in a simple form, they are the result of an ongoing enquiry in four individual statements.
Opening: 1 March 17-19 h.
Exhibition: 1 March - 5 April
Open: tu - sat 13 - 18 h. and 1st Sun o/t month 14 - 17 h.
Upcoming exhibitions: Nesrine Khodr and Chikako Watanabe 12 April - 17 May
Upcoming fairs: Art Brussels: 18 - 21 April / Art Amsterdam 7 - 12 May

Birch Juice... Does it exist in North America? HELP
I'm Russian and I have looked everywhere for this juice, but none of the places have it (online, offline, specialty, etc). Some Russian grocery stores have a cheaper, diluted version that tastes quite differently from non diluted birch tree juice (the fake version is heavily diluted with lemon juice, sugar, and water). I really really miss this traditional food, and I would pay a higher price just to get the authentic birch juice. Is there any possible way to get it here in US or Canada, other than ordering directly from Ukraine or Russia?
I miss it too and have never found it. We do, however, make it we tap both our maple and birch trees and while I have out the equipment boil each down into syrup.
Xrestos Voskres!
i'm not sure if you're looking for syrup or some sort of birch juice i'm not familiar with-- does this link help?
re: Sister Y
Birch juice, tastes a bit like watery maple syrup, but lighter, not as heavy a sugar content or naturally a maple flavor. A bit like chicken (I'm sorry I couldn't resist.),
Really, very refreshing.
In New England we don't have Birch Juice, but we do drink White Birch Beer.
They sell it in Brighton Beach in New York City, I bought some yesterday at M&I International, but they probably have it in other stores too.
They carry the sweetened version as well as 100% pure juice.
I'm in Michigan and I have occassionally found it at Hiller's, a small chain of grocery stores that specializes in carrying lots of ethnic and import items. It's been from different suppliers each time, so I wonder if it is difficult for them to get, but I try to encourage them by buying it. It is delicious and refreshing--like a very subtle apple or grape juice, but much less sweet.
BTW the distributor of the 100% pure birch juice I found - which is indeed totally delicious! - is Adamba, maybe you can contact them and ask. Their website is http://adamba.com/
I just found some 100% pure birch juice at a store in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, NY. The store is Nature's Garden, 750 Manhattan Ave. The brand is Vavel, whose sauerkraut and other foods I've also seen around town. I picked this stuff on a whim and I have to admit I'm totally addicted to it now. The day after I bought it I went back and stocked up on two more bottles. It is crisp and refreshing when refrigerated or poured over some ice. It almost has the flavor of a grain alcohol without the bite but it is more green and healthful tasting. What a wonderful treat. I hope you (original poster) are able to locate some. And yes, the importer that is listed on my bottles is the same as posted by Bambellini, Adamba. I guess this company is located somewhere in the industrial area of Bushwick, as their zip code is 11237.
My sister and her husband in WI tap their trees. My husband once bought birch syrup in Alaska.
I just found this Canadian company
with Birch sap products!
re: Mandy C. G.
If you don,t mind 100% plain natural birch juice taken from Latvian and Whiterussian trees, free fron conservants and sugar etc... You can buy from Poland. Just get in touch (firstname.lastname@example.com) or phone +48 32 2737267 or +48502928224

"The Dump" is what Doug Swieteck calls his new home in upstate New York. He lands there in the summer of 1968, when the Apollo space missions are under way, Joe Pepitone is slugging for the New York Yankees, and the Vietnam War is raging. At home he lives with a father who has lost his way and a brother accused of robbery. And Doug's oldest brother is returning from Vietnam. Who knows what wounds his missions have given him?
But Doug has his own mission, too, and it begins when he first sees the plates of John James Audubon's Birds of America at the local library. His mission will lead him to Lil Spicer, who shows him how to drink a really cold Coke, to Mrs. Windermere, who drags him to a theater opening, and to the customers of his Saturday grocery deliveries, who together will open a world as strange to him as the lunar landscape.
Swieteck, who first appeared in Gary D. Schmidt's Newbery Honor book The Wednesday Wars, will discover the transforming power of art over disaster in a story about creativity and loss, love and recovery, and survival.

BRANDON — Kyle Pinkham could be your son, your nephew, your grandson, or your brother. A 2006 Otter Valley graduate, he was a good-looking, popular student-athlete who kicked the winning field goal to help the OV football team clinch the 2005 Division IV State Championship.
VERGENNES — Two Vergennes residents are facing felony heroin possession and sales charges after being snared in a successful sting operation by city police on Oct. 17.
Chelsea A Barrows, 22, and Mark K. Kennedy, 27, pleaded innocent to the charges at their Monday arraignment appearances in Addison Superior Court, criminal division. If convicted, they face penalties of up to five years in jail and/or a fine of up to $100,000 on each charge, according to court records.
MIDDLEBURY — The Turning Point Center of Addison County in Middlebury is distributing free Narcan emergency kits to people seeking to have the substance handy for a friend or loved one at risk of overdosing on opiates.
BRISTOL — Bristol police on Friday morning arrested four people on drug charges during a bust that also netted more than $4,000 in cash and thousands of bags of heroin.
Bristol Police Department Chief Kevin Gibbs said he believes the operation dealt a "significant hit" to a large, out-of-state drug operation. He added that in recent years he has seen a pattern of out-of-state dealers come to Bristol to operate.
MIDDLEBURY — The Turning Point Center of Addison County in Middlebury gave out 69 free Narcan emergency kits to a total of 29 people seeking to have the substance handy for a friend or loved one at risk of overdosing on opiates.
RUTLAND — Monday was a good day for Karen Kane. While it was exciting and encouraging having Sen. Patrick Leahy hold a field hearing of his U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee in Rutland on opiate abuse in Vermont, there was something even better. Just before the hearing began, Kane, of Brandon, learned that a spot opened up at the Mapleleaf Farm drug treatment center in Underhill for her 24-year-old son, a heroin addict.
BRANDON — Police acting on a tip seized over 400 bags of heroin and crack cocaine at a house on Carver Street in Brandon on Feb. 5 and made two arrests in the largest drug bust in Brandon's recent history.
Brandon Police executed the search warrant at 43 Carver St. at 2:30 p.m. on that Wednesday after receiving information alleging illegal sales of heroin at that location.
BRISTOL — Bristol police on Jan. 17 arrested a second man implicated in a September drug raid on a South Street apartment. Court papers detail the sting operation that led to the arrests of the men for drug offenses.
It is the latest in a long-term effort by Bristol police to fight drugs in the community.
MONTPELIER — In his fourth annual state of the state address this past Wednesday, Gov. Peter Shumlin used his bully pulpit to home in on one topic: the "epidemic" of opiate addiction in Vermont.
It was an unusual strategy. Typically, governors (and as Shumlin has in the past) use the state of the state address to give Vermonters the administration's vision for the coming year on a variety of perennial topics, such as the economy, education, health care and the environment.

Ottawa - Following two months of weak growth, wholesale sales increased 1.4% to $50.5 billion in October 2013, Statistics Canada reports. Higher sales were reported in five of seven subsectors, representing over 70% of wholesale sales.
In volume terms, wholesale sales were up 1.2%.
Higher sales in most subsectors
The machinery, equipment and supplies subsector led the growth in wholesale sales in October, rising 5.6% to $11.2 billion. This was the largest monthly growth for the subsector since September 2003. Gains were recorded in all of the subsector's industries, led by increases in the construction, forestry, mining, and industrial machinery, equipment and supplies industry (+8.6%) and the computer and communications equipment and supplies industry (+6.6%).
The second largest increase in dollar terms occurred in the personal and household goods subsector (+1.2%). Gains in the home entertainment equipment and household appliance industry (+9.8%) and the pharmaceuticals and pharmacy supplies industry (+1.9%) accounted for most of the growth.
Sales rose in the farm product subsector (+12.0%), its sixth consecutive monthly increase. This was the highest monthly growth rate recorded to date.
The building material and supplies subsector (+1.0%) posted a fourth consecutive monthly gain.
Wholesale sales in the food, beverage and tobacco subsector rose 0.4% in October. This subsector has recorded three increases in the past four months, but has yet to return to its May 2013 peak.
The motor vehicle and parts subsector decreased 1.4% in October following three consecutive monthly gains. Lower sales in the motor vehicle industry (-2.6%) accounted for the decline.
Sales up in most provinces
In October, higher sales were recorded in eight provinces, which together accounted for over 95% of wholesale sales in Canada. Alberta, Quebec and Ontario were responsible for most of the gain.
Sales in Alberta rose 3.3% after edging down for two consecutive months. Gains in the machinery, equipment and supplies subsector contributed to the increase.
The October increase in Quebec (+1.9%) more than offset the decline in September.
Wholesale sales rose in Ontario (+0.6%) for the fourth consecutive month.
Saskatchewan's wholesale sales grew 4.5% in October. The gain was widespread across subsectors.
In Newfoundland and Labrador, wholesale sales rose 10.3%, primarily a result of increases in the machinery, equipment and supplies subsector.
Manitoba (-1.0%) recorded the largest decline among the provinces. Wholesale sales have been relatively flat in this province since June 2013.
New Brunswick (-0.5%) was the only other province to record a sales decrease in October. It was the fourth consecutive decline for this province.
Inventory levels edge down in October
Inventories edged down 0.2% to $61.8 billion in October. Three of seven subsectors recorded declines, accounting for almost 60% of wholesale inventories.
The largest decrease in dollar terms was in the machinery, equipment and supplies subsector (-1.3%), the third decline in four months.
The motor vehicle and parts subsector (-1.1%) recorded a drop in inventories for a second consecutive month.
The largest increase in dollar terms occurred in the food, beverage and tobacco subsector (+2.4%) and the miscellaneous subsector (+1.6%). This was the second consecutive monthly gain for both subsectors.
The inventory-to-sales ratio decreased from 1.24 in September to 1.22 in October. This was the lowest ratio since June 2012.
The inventory-to-sales ratio is a measure of the time in months required to exhaust inventories if sales were to remain at their current level.

page 3 - Running Flat, Low & Flat-Out
We analyze three neat tire happenings.
By November 18, 2004
To me, the most compelling thing is that Pirelli, Goodyear, Sumitomo and Toyo have each licensed PAX technology for their own products. In fact, one of the concept cars at the Paris auto show was on Goodyear PAX tires.
NHTSA's TPMS
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has proposed that new cars and light trucks (those with Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings of 10,000 lb. or less) be equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems. This proposal has not been without controversy and, in fact, the regulation and its phase-in are still subject to modifications. As currently envisioned, NHTSA would require an alert to one or more tires being underinflated more than 25 percent below vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.
At least two issues complicate this. First, as shown by a little arithmetic, underinflation of 25 percent puts a tire in a pretty dire state: For example, one with a recommended pressure of 30 psi wouldn't trigger the alert until it's running less than 22.5 psi.
Such a tire certainly runs hotter and wears quicker, with degradation of its handling and abuse of its internal structure. What's more, let's examine the load-carrying implications of underinflation. Suppose a tire has a load rating of 95, which at 30 psi correlates with a standard load of 1323 lb. Drop the pressure to 22 psi, and its standard load diminishes to 1014 lb, a reduction of 23 percent.
Standard loads, as listed in industry tables, evidently incorporate safety margins. But think of it this way: This particular tire, underinflated by 25 percent, has reduced its safety margin by 23 percent.
Worse yet, if it's "only" 24 percent underinflated, there's no alert whatsoever. Yet, according to the tables, this tire's load-carrying effectiveness is diminished by almost 20 percent from its performance at proper inflation.
Thus, there's an excellent argument that an alert at 25-percent underinflation gives drivers a false sense of security. Specialists at places like Discount Tire and The Tire Rack feel this is the case-and I concur.
Direct or Indirect TPMS?
The second point is a bit more involved. NHTSA regulations allow for TPMS of either direct or indirect type. Direct systems have a sensor within each wheel, measure each tire pressure independently and display these pressures separately. Such a system adds perhaps $79 per vehicle.
Indirect systems exploit the fact that an underinflated tire has a smaller rolling circumference. Hence, by monitoring these differences using ABS hardware, it's possible to identify differences in inflation pressure. With the assumption that ABS hardware is already there, the added cost for indirect TPMS is perhaps $13 per vehicle.
However, there are potential shortcomings of indirect measurement. As it's comparing data over time, it won't necessarily provide a timely response to rapid deflation. An indirect system most likely cannot identify which tire is low, and it may not operate at all vehicle speeds.
Even worse, if all four tires gradually lose pressure at about the same rate-through neglect, for instance-an indirect system won't identify this at all (as there'll be no anomalies of rolling circumference).

A little about me...
I am a 60 year old retired man that is better with people around the age of 45 to 55 than 60. I guess I matured a little late. I love to play golf and fish. I am pretty laid back and take everything into stride. I love to cuddle and watch movies, walk on the beach or just hang out.
About the one I'm looking for...
my partner should not smoke, I do not drink but dont mind if my partner does once in a while, I like a woman that has taken care of herself, and can handle herself in many situations. I am looking for a long term relationship but am not going to rush into anything.
I'd just like to add...
I like pets but I dont look at them as important as people. I am a meat and potato man, in fact I like meat at every meal. I dont experiment with eating a lot of different kinds of food, its just not my forte.
