I want to source some data from databases, then use this data in various 
blocks.  I am looking for the most efficient way to achieve this.  In below 
blocks, is the code in block ``connection'' executed thrice (economy of code 
but no saving of time) or is it only executed once then used twice?  If the 
code is run thrice, is there another way to create code blocks so that the code 
is executed only once?

Thanks,
Naresh
