Can static variables be initialized in static methods?
<p>Can static variables be initialized in a method? Is the following code valid? Thank you!</p>

<pre><code>internal static class Common
{

    internal static int TimeOut;
    internal static string Name;


    internal static void Initialize()
    {
        TimeOut = Config.Read("timeout");
        Name = Config.Read("Name");
    }
}
</code></pre>
