There are three main types of tires such as pneumatic, solid, and polyurethane. Caterpillar Forklift Alternator Price Forklift Counterweight Jlg Steinbockgas Arlington Myka Ophelia Bering is Lattimer's by-the-book partner. She has more book smarts and a better eye for detail than her partner; and, in Season 2, Episode 3, it is revealed that Myka has a photographic memory. She takes her job very seriously and frequently clashes with Lattimer. She even names her pet ferret Pete because they are both cute and annoying. Myka has a troubled relationship with her father, who owns a bookshop where she spent much of her childhood. In the Season 2 finale, Myka, after realizing she was wrong to trust HG Wells, resigns as a warehouse agent, worrying that the mistake will haunt her and keep her from being an effective agent. Normally, an airflow sensor measures this adjustment and communicates with the ECU.
