Make sure the host's server provides a sufficiently fast connection to the Internet. A T3 connection is optimal, but a T1 will work for most Web sites. A dial-up connection is usually much too slow.
Find out how many machines will be sharing the server with you. You don't want to be slowed down by traffic from other sites. Compare this number with other hosting services to give yourself negotiating room.
Investigate limits on bandwidth and hits. Make sure you won't be charged severely if a lot of traffic goes through your site. Look for reasonable flat monthly rates as opposed to rates based on use.
Find out what kind of customer support the host offers. Twenty-four hour support and speedy replies aren't unreasonable demands. Try to avoid paying for customer support.
Plan ahead when thinking about Web space. The amount of space you need depends on the nature of your site, but be sure to give your site room to grow.
Look for a company that offers virtual hosting. This will allow you to use your own domain name (www.yoursite.com) as your URL as opposed to a directory within the host's domain (www.host.com/yoursite). If you don't feel that you need your own domain name, save money and stick with the host's URL.
Make sure the host provides adequate CGI-bin access if you'll be using forms, and that the CGI bin can support your scripts. You should have your own CGI-bin directory with unlimited access.
Opt for Web-based administration if you're unfamiliar with Web programming. This will provide a Web-based interface for the maintenance of the site.
Look for a host that offers FTP and Telnet access to facilitate uploading files and editing CGI scripts.
Evaluate your e-mail needs. Some servers offer POP mailboxes, while others simply offer aliases that reroute mail to existing mailboxes. Some hosts put limits on the number of allowed aliases. Make sure you fully understand the host's e-mail services.

How to Throw a Christmas PartyIn Feburary 2016 28,
In Feburary 2016 28,
Make three key decisions before solidifying Christmas party plans: Whether you’re planning a sit-down dinner party, casual cocktail party or a holiday open house; what day you plan to host the party; and who will be invited. You can also choose a theme, such an ugly Christmas sweater party, if you like. Saturdays in December are ideal for holiday parties, but your guests’ weekend calendars book up quickly. For fewer conflicts, plan a party earlier in the month rather than close to Christmas. Send out invitations at least four weeks in advance. For a formal party, send proper paper invitations featuring holiday themes; for a casual or small party, an email invitation or phone call is probably sufficient.
Planning the Decor
Adorn your home with even more Christmas decorations than you normally would for the season; a thoroughly decked-out home makes a party’s ambiance that much more festive. Aim to have a good number of presents wrapped and under the twinkling Christmas tree; if you haven’t finished your holiday shopping yet, wrap up some empty boxes in matching paper tied with satin ribbon. For a simple decoration, collect vintage ornaments and place them in glass bowls or pitchers. Don’t forget to hang a large wreath or red bow on the door so guests know where the party is located.
Picking the Menu
The menu can vary drastically based on the type of party you’re planning. For an elegant holiday party, “Gourmet” magazine recommends serving roasted prime rib with a side of potato and porcini mushroom gratin, broccoli and cauliflower and rosemary popovers. This follows the “keep it simple” mantra noted by Style At Home: Keep it simple with a salad, main dish with a starchy side and two vegetables. For cocktail parties, focus on bite-sized appetizers that you can make in advance and freeze. “Bon Apetit” magazine suggests miniature crab cakes, beef sates and pear and cherry and pine nut tartlets as some dessert options. Serve both red and white wine, a seasonal beer and a signature cocktail; something red, such as a cranberry margarita or spiced sangria, is festive and widely appealing. Stock up on nonalcoholic drinks, too, such as coffee, sodas, cocoa, cider and water.
Selecting the Entertainment
For many holiday parties, all the entertainment that guests need is the ability to catch up with other family and friends. Put on seasonal music, but keep the tunes low so guests can hear each other easily. For a cocktail party, choose upbeat jazzy Christmas classics; at a dinner party, low and slow traditional carols might be more appropriate. If many of your guests don’t know each other, a game such as the Christmas-themed “Guess Me” icebreaker might get them talking. Write classic Christmas characters, such as Scrooge from “A Christmas Carol,” Kevin McCallister from “Home Alone” and Ralphie from “A Christmas Story,” on name tags and place them on guests’ backs when they arrive. Guests must ask each other questions to figure out who their character is; the first three to correctly guess win a prize.

Oracle ORAIn Feburary 2016 28,
In Feburary 2016 28,
Oracle servers run both an Oracle database and listener process. One Oracle listener, which you can configure to support multiple databases, receives and manages client connection requests. If the listener receives more requests than it can handle, user requests can time out; in this case, restarting the listener will resolve the error.
Database Connection
Oracle database connection requests aren't processed unless they include authentication information such as a user name, password and the name of the Oracle service. If the authentication services aren't running or the password name is incorrect, communication efforts will fail. Similarly, if the Oracle database locks up and fails to respond to database queries, Oracle will report a failure. According to “Oracle Dba on Unix and Linux” by Michael Wessler, if the Oracle database itself crashes, the program's background processes such as PMON and SMON will terminate, and you will receive an “ORA-12637 packet receive failed” or 'TNS: packet writer failure' message.
Server & Hardware
The Tnsnames.ora file on your computer contains references to Oracle servers with which it regularly communicates. If a server name is incorrect or incomplete, Oracle can't connect to it. If the port referenced in the Tnsnames.ora file isn't open, you may see an “ORA-12637 packet receive failed” message. Router and network interface controller, or NIC, card failures also cause this problem, as can insufficient server disk input/output and system memory.
Communication
Packet communication errors can occur when a network's data traffic is so great that the time-out limit hits before your computer receives a response from the Oracle server. If the packet sizes are too large for the server to process, you can change the transport date unit, or TDU, parameters in the Tnsnames.ora file. If a network router fails and the data packets are routed to other nodes that cannot handle the load, error messages will result. You also might see errors from a malicious denial-of-service attack, or hackers turning off the Oracle listener, although the latter appears as a process failure.
