The avid motorcycle enthusiast knows that when used consistently, fuel additives are some of the easiest and least expensive ways to protect the engine of your motorcycle. Rust, grime, debris and water caused by increased ethanol in fuel can cause your engine to bog, stall and even seize in serious cases. A fuel additive will help keep your engine clean and running smoothly all year long.
We carry additives from top brands in the industry such as Yamalube, Klotz, Gold Eagle, Maxima, and PJ1 to boost and stabilize your fuel. Cleaning those important components of engine such as your carburetor, valves, piston/rings, and combustion chamber can be done preventatively every time you run these chemicals through your tank.
You can even turn some heads (and some noses) while riding your motorcycle around. Grab a scented gas additive from Manhattan Oil and leave a savory scent everywhere you go! With flavors like cherry, apple, cinnamon, and cotton candy, you will leave a memorable wake wherever you ride. Check out our selection of fuel additives today!

I run this stuff in all my off road machines. Stabilizes fuel, lubricates the top end, and it makes my bikes smell fantastic.

What one of these scents is the most notciable and smells the best? Thanks.

I have not found any other octane boost out there that has all of the good attributes of the Maxima Hi-Test. First, it works as it stops the pinging. Secondly, it does not stain plastic fuel tanks (as some other brands do... watch out for anything sold in a metal can if this is a concern for you) Thirdly, it does a great job of conditioning the fuel. I've stored bikes for 12 months + with no additional stabilizers and had no issues with varnish or fuel clogs.

Maxima always delivers great products!!

I assume it does what it says on the bottle. It makes me feel more comfortable running this in my gas tank, especially if I ever don't get to ride for several weeks. If there is ever a chance that your machine will be sitting for a period, I would run this or something similar through it just for piece of mind.

Air Products to Study Carbon Capture; Eastman Discontinues Texas Plant10:03 AM MST | December 22, 2009 | Rebecca coons Air Products says it has signed an agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy to move forward with an engineering study and project plan for a potential carbon capture and storage (CCS) project at a Port Arthur, TX refinery. If built, the system would concentrate carbon dioxide (CO2) from two Air Products' steam methane reformer waste streams and deliver the CO2 via pipeline to the Oyster Bayou oilfield for enhanced oil recovery efforts. The project was one of 12 to be awarded grants in October under the first round of funding from $1.4 billion in American...

It happens practically every other year. QB's get blasted by their teammates all the time or at least questioned. That hasn't ever happened on this team even once. The players have done the opposite and spoken highly about their confidence in Schaub. You can create whatever fiction you want about this, but it fails and just comes off as over the top.
You can dislike Schaub yourself and think he is horrible. We all know that you feel that way. You are entitled to your opinion just like anyone else, but to suggest that the rest of his team is being disrespected by management for not releasing a guy that would have some pretty strong cap consequences is downright stupid. The players have spoken themselves and "their word" is more then likely how they feel. There are all sorts of factors that go into releasing a player with a salary like Schaub has in the following season right after he just signed a deal. Do you even contemplate any of this stuff at all?? Do you make the connection as far as how a team has to operate under the salary cap?? Where is the money going to come from to sign some other QB after the cap hit?? The Texans may not have to start Schaub next season, but they can't just release him because they all of a sudden feel like it without there being other factors involved. This isn't Madden.
And why aren't you dumping all over JJ Watt for expressing his admiration and confidence in Schaub either? Watt said several times that he has a lot of confidence in the guy and likes him as this team's QB? So isn't Watt disrespecting the rest of the team since he is advocating for Schaub by your same standards??
Signing Schaub to an extention after 2 games coming off a serious foot injury would be a firable offense on most NFL teams. We're stuck with Schaub for a couple of yrs as fans unfortunately. Thanks Rick/Gary

In smaller towns, as is Jimbe, with less than two thousand inhabitants, the neighborhood got all. This still finds today despite the obvious replacement population. With each new generation of young people moving to other parts of the world. Those who decide to stay in effect kept the names of their ancestors in the land of their birth.
South America makes up the southern half of the Americas and a large part of Latin America. It's home to the world's longest mountain range, biggest waterfall and largest river -- even these mammoths pale in comparison to the stunning variety of life forms thriving in the rainforest. To the northwest, off the coast of Ecuador, lie the Galapagos Islands, which are unique for hosting species not found anywhere else on earth. These were the subject of study for Charles Darwin in his theory of evolution, which he himself said will require proof in every single case. The main languages in South America are Spanish and Portugese, which basically tells you which European countries colonized the place. The South American wars of independence took place over two decades in the early 19th century, led by Simon Bolivar of Venezuela and Jose san Martin of Argentina. Following liberation from Portugal and Spain, South America took off into its own development, capitalizing on the rich deposits of oil, gold, copper, silver and tango musicians. Brazil is the largest country in South America and home to one of the world's best parties, Carnaval. Have you heard of samba music? How about bossa nova? Maybe dancing for three days straight? I can't say enough good things about South America. All the world's continents have amazing secrets and treasures laying in wait for your discovery, but in South America... just have a look at our pictures while you're waiting for online confirmation of your plane tickets to hit your inbox.Text by Steve Smith.

Explosive and radical multi-effects processor with TC's studio-quality sound.
The TC Electronic FireworX Multi-effects Processor boasts a 64-position routing grid. Simply place algorithms anywhere on the grid and they will be automatically wired together. Features an 80 million ips processor with the TC DARC3 chip, and the FireworX monitors the amount of DSP power being used, so you can wire together as many algorithms as you want until it tells you it's maxed out. Sound palette includes vocoder, ring modulation, synth algorithm, format filter, resonant filter, multi tap delay, reverse delay, reverb, delay, chorus, flange, phase, pitch, and fractal noise. You can change the order of effects, repeat certain blocks, add feedback loops, even insert an external effect. It shreds. And now it's available with word clock.
FireworX is a very powerful machine and within the borders of the extensive DSP power you have the possibility to create any imaginable effect. The impressive palette of effects in FireworX includes:
· Expander/Gate
· Soft Compressor
· Hard Compressor/Limiter
· Resonance Filter
· Bandpass Filter
· Phaser
· Resonator
· Resochord Filter
· Formant Filter
· Drive Distortion
· Cruncher Distortion

· Ring Modulator

· Stereo Enhancer
· 5 band Parametric EQ
· 4 band modifiable parametric EQ
· Feedback Send
· Feedback Return
· Insert Send
· Insert Return
All effects-algorithms are of the best TC quality, and can be assigned in any combination in the Routing grid.
Routing Blocks
Setting up effects-algorithm blocks in the FireworX Routing matrix is extremely easy. With a double click on the effect block panel buttons, you insert the effect type chosen with the Value wheel. You can change the order of the effects, repeat certain blocks, add feedback loops and even insert an external device.
Choosing an effect block and pushing Enter will bring up the Sub Routing I/O page of the chosen block. You can decide on where the chosen effect will get its fuel from and where to route the power. This way you have exactly the same flexibility in connecting the effects as if you had a couple of external effects-machines and a patch-bay.
The number of processing blocks in a Routing setup is only limited by the DSP-power consumption. It is possible to monitor the percentage of each block, which is convenient when constructing complex routings.
Modifier Matrix
Looking for versatility and unlimited possibilities? The Modifier section of the FireworX is the key to versatility. Only your imagination is the limit here. Think of any possible way to combine modifiers and effect parameters, and make it happen. Creativity brought to work
- all made possible by the FireworX.
Available in the Modifier Matrix page, is the constant set of internal and external parameter modifiers. 8 external control inputs (e.g. assigned to MIDI), and 8 internal modifiers like e.g. ADSR's, LFO's, Envelopes + more. These modifiers can be assigned to control any parameter appearing on a list at the right of the display. This list is unique for the current effects-combination at the Routing and Edit pages.
Like in a patchbay, simply connect virtual wires from the desired modifier to the parameter that dynamically should be adjusted.
An example of an internal modifier is Freeform. Actually this is a tiny sequencer that allows you to create a more "rhythmic" sequence than e.g. an ADSR. This is very useful if you want a Phaser or a Tremolo to act as a percussive sidekick to a breakbeat.
All inserted effects-algorithms in the Routing grid has all the parameters for editing that you can expect from even the high-end stand alone effects units.
When scrolling the Edit window, simply use the cursor to select effect-blocks and press Enter to access the parameter list.
On top of all the algorithms, all internal Modifiers and several other functions have multiple adjustment possibilities.
Factory Presets
When using a machine that has so many combinations of settings an essential thing is factory presets. This gives you a useful set of starting points for various applications.
The FireworX has no less than 400 factory settings. The library contains lots of weird sounding effects, beautiful outdoor location reverbs and music-effects you have never dreamt were possible to create.
Preset examples from the library:
· Ultimator
· Vocode Tracker
· Paranoia
· Angry Moog
· Walkietalkie
· Arctic Strings
· Dub The Universe
· The Whisperer
· Envelope Filter
· Little Speaker
· Warm Phaser
This way the FireworX can become the "secret weapon" for lots of producers and engineers, when they want to ad a unique touch that makes the production stand out from the crowd.
Both a full package of presets made for music-production and a package for Film-production, are standard in the FireworX.
The FireworX has multiple ways of storing favorite settings and recalling them again.
400 factory presets can be dialed up at any time, adjusted and stored in 200 internal User-bank locations.
If the 200 User-presets are not enough, a standard PCMCIA card can be inserted, and additional 200 presets can be stored.
Another advantage of the card is obviously that it can be carried around, making it possible for you to have your best settings available, no matter what studio-setup you are working in.
With the preset filter it is possible to search for presets containing e.g. a Vocoder, without having to scroll through all the presets in the machine.
The FireworX can be set up in various combinations. How you should set it up depends on your specific application. The vast amount of digital and analog I/O's, means that the FireworX will fit into multiple system setups, and most likely also combinations you never have considered possible.
The FireworX can be inserted on a Group or even a channel, and will then handle the wet/dry balance on the signal.
The FireworX can also be used as a standard effects unit, with an Aux send and returns on channels or stereo-inputs.
Finally, the FireworX can be connected with the analog I/O's as e.g. inserted on a group, and simultaneously an external device can be inserted using the digital I/O's and the insert blocks in the Routing grid.
- Hardcore 80 million ips processor with the TC DARC3 chip
- 8x8 position routing grid. Simply place the algorithms anywhere on the grid and they will be automatically "wired" together in parallel and serial, depending on the position
- Full range of true studio-quality effects
- FireworX uses a dynamic resource allocation system that allows you to monitor how much DSP power you are using. You can keep adding algorithms to the routing grid until you hit the DSP power limit without affecting the FX quality
- When the desired combination of algorithms are chosen in the Routing grid, all thinkable editing tools are available, including a unique modifier matrix allowing you to twist parameters dynamically in a way you have never experienced before
Make your mixes stand out from the rest with a awe-inspiring FireworX display. Order today!

Good call on needing a wash for Gradkowski. I thought Mundy would do it, but he apparently only signed a vet minimum deal.
Allen and Starks are probabaly the best bets to wash the Gradkowski signing. Hampton or Legursky, if signed elsewhere, might also do a bit better than the vet minimum.

Development of the Type 89 began in 1980, with four prototypes being produced in 1984. These prototypes were tested until 1986. It was accepted into service and type classified in 1989. When the vehicle entered production, the initial requirement was for around 300 vehicles, this however has been scaled back. By the end of 1999 just 58 were in service, and just two vehicles were purchased that year, with only a single vehicle purchased the following year. The primary contractor for the project was Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, with the main subcontractor being Komatsu Limited.

Will if you would really like to know ... my nephew who is in 9th grade asked me to help him with his algebra 2 homework that the teacher gives him online ... there are some that I am not sure about; thus, wanting to help my nephew understand this material to the fullest of his abilities i asked for some help ... you know what happens when you assume right sudharaka?
Dear bringash,
In that case (thinking my assumption is incorrect!!) I shall give you my ideas about the question. The answer 2.5 is correct.
; (using the rules of significant figures.)
Since it is given that the answer could be rounded to first decimal place 2.5 is also correct.
Hope this will help you.
P.S: If you felt angry about my previous post I am really sorry about it. But MHF does not encourage any of it's members to give exam help.

You've already said Maybe. If you've changed your mind, let us know. If you say Yes, we'll anonymously find out if the feeling is mutual. You have nothing to lose!
You both said YES! The feeling is mutual. Now the rest is up to you! Say Hi and get the conversation started.
After a while, you get the feeling that the words "nice guy" are tattooed on your forehead in an ink that only women can see! The fact is, I am a nice guy... but the right woman might just find the "naughty boy" inside! Up for the challenge? I moved to the Seattle area over 5 years ago from Long Island (yeah, I know, another thing to hold against me.) Now I just have to find someone to enjoy life with! I'm an entrepreneur at heart, and have decided to make a go of it on my own... now it's only a question of what! I enjoy going out for a nice meal, a good bottle of wine and great conversation, or going to a concert or comedy club, but am just as comfortable being a loaf, staying in and watching a movie. Music is and has been an important part of my life; I sing and play bass. Some of my "favorite things" include baseball (going to M's games or watching), sushi, rock and roll, poker (Texas hold 'em) and useless trivia. Think I'm kidding? I was on Jeopardy this past February... and WON a game!!! I'm not a jock, but I do like walking, hiking and working out occasionally. I would love to learn how to water ski; any potential teachers out there? I'm also not the "outdoorsy" type by nature (not too many mountains to climb in NY!), but am not afraid of trying new things. Just don't expect me to have snowshoes or a tent in my closet! I'd like to find someone who shares some of these interests, and has some of her own that she might share with me. I'm also very versatile... I can go from polo shirt, jeans and sneakers to a sportsjacket and slacks to tuxedo without any problems (I own all of the above!) I hope this doesn't sound boring... that's about the last thing I am! I'm not a paying member of JDate right now, so we'll have to figure out an alternate means of communication!

Subject: | InnoDB engine to NDB using parallel ALTER TABLE | ||
View as plain text |
I'm in the process of migrating my MySQL InnoDB database (~6 GB in total) to an NDBCluster. I'm following this blog post[1] and I'm stumbled into a problem while executing ALTER TABLE <table_name> ENGINE=NDB commands in parallel. I'm initiating an ALTER TABLE <table_name> ENGINE=NDB command for every table in all of my databases in different sessions with a script and I see this[2]. (I *dotted out* the names of my tables, but each '...' represents a unique table name. Please notice also, that there are two databases db_a and db_b.) Eventually all commands reach to an end, but in sequence and not in parallel. Now I'm not saying this is bad a thing, but the aforementioned blog post's writer gives me the impression that these commands really can/should execute in parallel. So basically my question is: what I'm seeing is perfectly fine? If not what could have gone wrong (my configuration[3] if it helps)?

Effect of dexfenfluramine on sleep in healthy subjects. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 1796129 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
The acute effects of dexfenfluramine on nocturnal sleep were studied in ten healthy male subjects by means of sleep EEG recordings and ratings of subjective sleep quality. Four different dosages (3 mg, 7 mg, 15 mg, and 30 mg) were tested, administered over a period of 3 days each. Under 15 mg and 30 mg dexfenfluramine, only slight effects on sleep were observed: 15 mg led to decreased sleep efficiency in the first night of medication, and to reduced percentage of slow wave sleep in the first and third night. A significant lengthening of REM latency was present in the third night under 30 mg dexfenfluramine, without changes in other REM sleep parameters. Daily doses of 3 mg and 7 mg dexfenfluramine did not influence sleep, except for a significant REM latency reduction observed in the first night under 3 mg. Apart from a transient slight impairment under 30 mg, ratings of subjective sleep quality did not mirror any impact of dexfenfluramine. The data suggest that therapeutic dosages of dexfenfluramine only slightly influence nocturnal sleep, which contrasts with the known impact of other anti-obesity agents like the amphetamines. Unlike classical antidepressants, dexfenfluramine does not reduce REM sleep; in light of a hypothetical link between REM sleep reduction and antidepressant action of a drug, dexfenfluramine is not expected to have a pronounced antidepressant effect. |

Great for gentle removal of delicates
By JR
from RTP, NC
About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
I used metal screwdrivers for years to try to replicate what these pry tools do. These pry bars are more versatile and have less chance of causing damage. I used the narrow wedged tool (third from left in product photo) to adjust a transmission seal that wasn't seating straight as I tapped it into place -- great!

Great tool for auto trim
By ajmckay
from Sterling Heights, MI
I purchased this set to install a new radio and speakers in my car. I have a great set of metal mini pry bars, but I didn't want to risk scratching (even by wrapping with tape you can still get scratches) so I purchased this set. These tools were very quick and effective in removing dash and door panels. I can truly say they don't scratch plastic trim as I had a mishap where the tool slipped and struck a painted trim panel with some force. No scratch at all where a metal tool would have left a gouge or at least scratched the paint.I found the quality to be good. They aren't overly bendy but they have a little bit of give, which is good considering they are designed to be used with plastic and similar materials. If you use them as they were designed I see no reason why they should break. Proper pry-bar techniques will also help ensure they don't break.Note that HF also sells a blue auto trim set. I almost got that one instead, but I liked the "wedge" in this set and I also liked that it had multiple flat edges wheras the blue set had more unique end profiles, but it had fewer flat edges and I believe that those will get used most.Overall a great tool at a great price in my opinion.
Excellent when used within reason
By robotico
from Atlanta, GA
This versatile set has proven well. I've used them for just about anything from auto interior work to wedging on bicycle tires. They've never marked up a surface, torn or broken anything. They're a small tool and plastic, so using them to pry something larger and stronger will surely end in fail.

Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
An approach to analysing data for spatial clustering is outlined, with special reference to environmental epidemiology. The method is based on recent developments in spatial point-process modelling; specifically, on the use of so-called 'second-order' analysis of bivariate point patterns. This continuous-space approach offers some advantages over analytical methods that aggregate health events to areal units. The method is implemented within the framework of a proprietary geographical information system, ARC/INFO, and is illustrated with reference to health data from a questionnaire survey of children in Preston (Lancashire). The nature of the data gained from the questionnaire means that variables which may affect the health of the children studied can be accounted for within the analysis.

Transportation companies (e.g., railways, air delivery, trucking, shipping, etc.) move materials and unfinished goods to industrial giants like Caterpillar, Boeing and General Electric. Many believe that if the transporters are "on the go," then the economy is showing signs of health.
In contrast, some investors used to turn to the "phone companies" for safer haven investing during recessionary periods. Historically, the higher-than-average dividends acted as a buffer to economic uncertainty.
These are two very different economic segments. And yet, the iShares DJ Telecom Fund (IYZ) and the iShares DJ Transports (IYT) hold the top two spots for U.S. sector funds in relative strength percentile rank.
Are investors combining the growth aspect of moving commodities ("stuff") with the value aspect of "higher-yielding bargains" from the communications bin? I don't think so. I think it's all about "risk-on" growth assets… and that includes the changing nature of telecommunication services in our everyday lives.
It is true that transports do well in a strong economic environment. Yet it is even more accurate to say that they do well in anticipation of a strong economic environment. While the Fed isn't announcing the size and scope of its quantitative easing (QE) intentions until November 3, investors have been bidding up transporters via iShares DJ Transports (IYT) because the QE actions worked in 2009.
At least for now, the transporters are rising rapidly because they transport "reflated" resources from materials providers to big industrial firms like the Home Depots and 3Ms of the world. At the moment, anyway, the Fed's spark plug is igniting the shares of iShares DJ Transports (IYT).
So, then, what's the story with the significant outperformance of funds like iShares DJ Telecom Fund (IYZ) and iShares Global Telecom (IXP)? Aren't investors stretching for yield in a U.S. market with zero interest rates?
Indeed… there's some of that. In fact, due to a 4.0% annual yield for iShares Global Telecom (IXP) back at the start of 2010, I incorporated the fund in a 7-ETF portfolio for beating the S&P 500.
However, the real story is the fact that… while American consumers may have slashed budgets and increased savings since the "Great Recession" began… they still managed to increase spending on mobile phone equipment and communication services. That should have helped funds like iShares Telecom (IYZ) in the 10/07-3/09 bear, but it did not.
Consequently, shares of telecom corporations are quite reasonably priced. Investors may be recognizing that they are primed for growth in any environment. And yes… there's simply nothing shabby about above-average yields.

Consequences of lower extremity and trunk muscle fatigue on balance and functional tasks in older people: A systematic literature review

BMC Geriatrics 2010, 10:56 doi:10.1186/1471-2318-10-56
Published: 17 August 2010Abstract
Muscle fatigue reduces muscle strength and balance control in young people. It is not clear whether fatigue resistance seen in older persons leads to different effects. In order to understand whether muscle fatigue may increase fall risk in older persons, a systematic literature review aimed to summarize knowledge on the effects of lower extremity and trunk muscle fatigue on balance and functional tasks in older people was performed.
Studies were identified with searches of the PUBMED and SCOPUS data bases.
Papers describing effects of lower extremity or trunk muscle fatigue protocols on balance or functional tasks in older people were included. Studies were compared with regards to study population characteristics, fatigue protocol, and balance and functional task outcomes.
Seven out of 266 studies met the inclusion criteria. Primary findings were: fatigue via resistance exercises to lower limb and trunk muscles induces postural instability during quiet standing; induced hip, knee and ankle muscle fatigue impairs functional reach, reduces the speed and power of sit-to-stand repetitions, and produces less stable and more variable walking patterns; effects of age on degree of fatigue and rate of recovery from fatigue are inconsistent across studies, with these disparities likely due to differences in the fatigue protocols, study populations and outcome measures.
Taken together, the findings suggest that balance and functional task performance are impaired with fatigue. Future studies should assess whether fatigue is related to increased risk of falling and whether exercise interventions may decrease fatigue effects.

Phoenix-based truckload and logistics services provider Knight Transportation reports profit in the second quarter of the year declined slightly, despite an uptick in revenue.
It had $244.8 million in revenue compared to $236.3 million from the same time a year ago, a 3.6% increase. However, net income fell 1.8% from $19.3 million to $18.9 million.
''We have continued to expand our market share in our wide range of truckload logistic services in a challenging operating and economic environment," said Kevin Knight, chairman and CEO. "Our consolidated revenue, before trucking fuel surcharge, increased 6% on a year-over-year basis. Our non-asset service offerings lead the way with revenue growth of 64.2%, and now make up approximately 20% of our total revenue before trucking fuel surcharge."
He said compared to the same quarter last year, revenue per loaded mile, net of fuel surcharge, increased just less than 1% while length of haul and miles per tractor were virtually flat.
Knight's average tractor count for the quarter decreased by 107 trucks, year-over-year, to 3,963.
More details are available on the Knight Transportation website.

Greek drama
Elections narrowly bring to power a pro-austerity party and a thaw with Germany
World stock markets breathed a sigh of relief on June 18, the day after elections that brought a victory to Greece's pro-bailout, pro-austerity parties. But the center-right New Democracy party only barely beat back the left-wing, anti-capitalist Syriza Party.
Many eurozone officials focused on the near-win of Syriza as much as the victory of New Democracy-telling the new prime minister, Antonis Samaras, to form a coalition government quickly as a hedge against continued political instability.
Samaras did move swiftly, and by his swearing-in on the Thursday after the election he had a coalition government in place, including Greece's center-left party, Pasok, and the Democratic Party of the Left.
But will this motley coalition be able to save Greece from insolvency and expulsion from the eurozone? The election results and the swift action of Samaras appear to have made a difference to Germany. Chancellor Angela Merkel has said that she would tolerate no renegotiations of earlier bailout terms. However, a few days after the election Steffen Kampeter, Germany's deputy finance minister and a confidante of Merkel, told Germany's ARD television, "It is clear to us that Greece should not be over-strained."
Samaras stepped through this crack in Germany's position and scheduled a trip to Brussels next week to meet with other eurozone leaders. No one wants to call the talks a "renegotiation," but even the Germans say they might be willing to grant a little leniency in the terms.
Samaras, an economist educated in the United States at Amherst and Harvard, knows he will need help, and not just from the Germans, to fix this crisis. Immediately after being sworn in as prime minister, he issued a statement: "We trust that with God's help we will do all we can to get our people out of the crisis."


text: I set up my fitday account a few days back and my GF did the same. She got the purchased version which came with some cool stuff. Like more food to chose from and measurements and mood logs and all this stuff so you can really track everything to the T. Well I put in 177 lbs and 6'1" because those were my stats at the time and I tried to do a weight goal and it won't let you gain weight only lose. Which I thought was stupid but my maintanance was 2900. I am averaging 3600 calories on non workout days and about 3900 calories on workout days mainly from the increase from my PWO shake. Is this a good amount to gain? It seems a little high but I haven't gained a lb in like 3 weeks since I started trying. What should my goal calories per day be?

Great things come in small packages. Crystal Mountain is a prime example. Like the Little Engine That Could, Crystal is climbing SKI's Midwest Top 10 List-from No. 10 two years ago to No. 8 last year to No. 3 this year. "The whole is much larger than the sum of the parts," says a reader. A bit short on vertical-375 feet-Crystal makes up for it by providing "an excellent well-rounded family area." From the efficient lift system to the variety of terrain and lodging, it offers more than you would normally find at resorts of a similar size. The resort has methodically developed facilities for what many visitors consider to be one of the finest resorts in the Midwest. In the last four years it has added a high-speed detachable quad, convention facilities, eight new runs and a lift on the backside of the hill. Crystal just announced a $60-million, 10-year expansion plan that will include a new lodge and clubhouse, a pedestrian village, a spa, 10 to 12 new ski runs, more lodging and a third golf course. Readers give the resort high marks for Service, On-Mountain Food and Off-Hill Activities, which include snowshoeing, ice-skating, sleigh rides, bonfires and guided snowshoe hikes. If Crystal had a common knock among readers, it would be the length of the runs. "Short runs and never any bumps," grumbles a reader, but that's why others say, "great place for ski school and young skiers." For families, Crystal shines.

On the server you could try to ping each other and maybe on the webserver try to set up a dummy data source to the database server, then test the connection and delete the data source again.
In the application, I assume you're using some type of Connection object. You instantiate the object, you set all kinds of parameters, and you connect. On the same object, there will be a property that shows the status of the connection. That's it, really.
After many tests, I realized that the prob is due to firewall. I disabled it and the application can communicate with the SQL server. Thank you for help guys.
if this is a production environment then you are inviting troubel that switching off the FIREWALL, rather you can add an exception to allow the connection between the services with a specific prot.

Someone dropped off a baby at Fire Station 35, on Van Fleet, on Monday. The person also left personal belongings with the infant. Because of the baby's age, the dropoff may not qualify for Baby Moses law protection.

An energetic baby girl with large steel-gray eyes and a black mohawk was surrendered to Houston firefighters on Monday afternoon by a woman believed to be a Good Samaritan.
The 5-month-old was handed over to officials just before 2 p.m. at Houston Fire Department Station No. 35 in the 5500 block of Van Fleet in southeast Houston.
Firefighters contacted the Houston Police Department and inspected the baby.
"She was in good shape," said HFD spokesman Capt. Ruy Lozano. "She was clean, in good health, with good color and good body weight."
The person also left a small bag that included a pacifier and formula, he said.
The woman said she met the baby's mother before daylight on Monday and offered to care for the girl, Child Protective Services spokeswoman Estella Olguin said.
Medication with the infant enabled CPS investigators to contact her doctor and relatives. Officials have confirmed that the baby was born on Oct. 30.
"We know who the child is. We know who the mother is," Olguin said.
CPS officials spoke to the caretaker briefly on the phone, but were not able to interview her fully on Monday.
She claimed to have encountered the mother at a gas station and gave her a ride to a motel in the wee hours Monday morning.
"When they arrived at the motel, the little baby girl was in there by herself," Olguin said.
That's when the Good Samaritan offered to keep the baby. When she returned to the room, the mother had checked out.
"No one was around to know how to contact (the mother), so she took the baby to the fire station - thinking that was the best thing to do," Olguin said, adding that officials have not heard the mother's side of the story.
The infant was placed with a foster family for Monday night and CPS officials will be in court Tuesday requesting emergency custody.

Study Shows Military's Impact on AlaskaA new study from the state shows how dependent Alaska is on the military.KODIAK, Alaska- A new study from the state shows how dependent Alaska is on the military. 60 percent of all federal dollars spent in Alaska are devoted to defense spending. The state estimates the military will spend $486 million next year on Alaska projects. The study is from the state Department of Labor and published in this month's Alaska Economic Trends magazine. It also shows the Fairbanks North Star Borough has the largest percentage of residents with ties to the military. Just under 23 percent of residents there are employed by the military or a military dependent. Coming in second with nearly 22 percent was the Denali Borough, home to Clear Air Force Station. Kodiak came in third with 18 percent, mostly Coast Guard members. |
