Jungheinrich Expands Its Line of Reach Trucks With The New Space-Efficient and Extremely Rugged Indoor/Outdoor ETV C20
RICHMOND, VA (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) December 22, 2005 -- The Jungheinrich Lift Truck Corp., a world leader in warehouse logistics technology, is announcing the ETV C20, an efficient new electric reach truck designed to excel at stacking and retrieval of merchandise stored at high lift heights and in confined spaces. This rugged new workhorse is ideal both for moving pallets and doing continuous racking on single or multiple shifts. This truck is tough. Outdoor and severe-weather use is a possibility with several optional weatherproof cabin configurations, and the trucks super-elastic tires can negotiate both smooth and bumpy floor surfaces.With its compact dimensions and Reach Mast feature, the ETV C20 is a natural for working narrow aisle widths (down to 112.4 in. or 9.3 ft.).
Whats more, it can lift loads of
up to 4,400 lbs to heights up to 291.3 in. (24.3 ft.), and both its mast tilt and optional fork side-shift features can enhance fork maneuverability while the vehicle is stacking or accessing loads.The heart of the truck is its proprietary 3-phase AC motor technology, providing power for travel, lift, steering and braking. Jungheinrich discovered years ago that three-phase AC offers significant advantages over traditional direct current shunt-wound motors. For example, it enables strong acceleration and eliminates hesitation shifting into reverse. And with no carbon brushes to wear, an AC motor is essentially maintenance-free, keeping the vehicle operational longer.
In addition, the truck reclaims its kinetic energy during braking and stores it back in the battery; as a result, much less time is wasted on recharging stops. This robust new truck will keep working for the user, moving merchandise, shift after shift. Jungheinrich understands that driver comfort and safety translate to greater productivity and, ultimately, lower costs. Accordingly, theyve given a lot of thought to ergonomics in this design. Ergonomic features include a generous cabin workspace with plenty of legroom.
Visibility is superb and both the seat settings and the steering wheel angle can be adjusted to suit the operator. The ETVs SOLO-PILOT feature conveniently groups all essential controls in one location, including those for load lifting and lowering, travel direction, horn and the optional fork side-shift. Mast reach and mast tilt are controlled by two separate levers, and the LISA liquid crystal display constantly informs the operator of all key system functions in one easy-to-see console. To further enhance safety while driving, all essential hand controls can be easily accessed by the operator with no need to reach backwards. The sideways-facing cabin seat affords the operator outstanding visibility even when transporting high loads.For more information about the new ETV C20, contact Jungheinrich Lift Truck Corp., 5701 Eastport Boulevard, Richmond, VA 2323.

Why Highways Are So Important
(NC)?Transportation is fundamental to the prosperity and quality of life of all Canadians. Much of Canada's domestic and international freight is hauled on Canada's 24,400-kilometre National Highway System, the backbone of Canadian trade. In fact, the Canadian transportation system carries more than $1 trillion worth of goods every year.If our transportation system isn't running smoothly, it affects our quality of life ? from how much time we spend commuting, to what is available on store shelves and how much it costs.While every province and territory is responsible for highway safety by enforcing laws and maintaining highway infrastructure, Transport Canada is investing $600 million under the Strategic Highway Infrastructure Program (SHIP) to improve Canada's highways over five years. It's working with the provinces and territories to identify those parts of the national highway system that ? because of growing traffic and increased trade ? need immediate attention.In addition, SHIP...

Investing as a sport?
I said last week that money doesn't generally buy happiness, butthe lack of it can buy absolute misery. This, by the way, is notjust my personal observation. It is the conclusion of some ofthe most respected happiness researchers (Yes, there is such athing -- read my book.)The trouble is that we have to pay attention to money more whenwe lack it than when we have it. This doesn't seem fair, but theLord works in mysterious ways. Most people are invested in thestock market, either directly or through mutual funds, pensionplans or some other vehicle.
So it is hard not to be part of thePanic Crowd. But I ,in all my financial wisdom, have two goldenrules to offer. These may not make you rich, but they will keepyou happy.Number One: Place your investments in the safest vehiclespossible (Do as I say, not as I do!) and forget about them. Whenthe next recession ends, take inventory and see that you stillhave investments. Most of us don't get a rush out of watchingour investments plunge...

A Baby Gift Basket Can be a Perfect Present
When a close friend or relative is having a baby, there are always presents and baby shower gifts to think about getting. The new mother is going to have an intense period of adjustment before she gets settled into the routine of having another human being to look after, so she will need all the help possible from family and friends to make that transition as easy and memorable as possible. This should be a celebratory time for the new family, not a time of worry or stress, and a gift basket to commemorate the new addition can be just the thing to brighten their spirits even more, and maybe even supply them with some things that will end up coming in handy.
A baby gift basket can be one of the easiest way for you as the gift giver to be creative, and show the person your giving it to just how much you care about them. Instead of one big gift, you get to give...

Who Killed the Electric Car Is No Mystery To EV World
Omaha, Ne (ContentDesk) June 26, 2006 -- When California filmmaker Chris Paine debuts his Sony-released documentary this week, movie goers will be plunged into the dark heart of a technological murder mystery, Who Killed the Electric Car?

Brown Trout Fishing, A Real Challenge
Brown trout fishing can prove very challenging. This is due in part to the fact that brown trout are smart fish. They tend to feed at dusk or at night. They do put up a fight though and that can be a great challenge to the fisherman. But, because of the difficultly to catch the brown trout, this fish has not been a big time game fish.
But, there is much to know about it anyway. The brown trout, or Salmo Trutta, is also known by other names including German brown trout, German trout, English...
