How fast do they drive a car at the emissions testing stations?

car emissions info on Car Emissions Explained: Catalytic Converters
car emissions info image



707


I tried to search this and got nothing. Thanks for any info you know.
I'm talking about miles per hour



Answer
It is a computer regulated course that varies speed and tops at 55MPH. ( the speed limit when the law was enacted)

When do I get my emissions tested on my car when I move to Maryland?




Common Whi


The DMV mentions the state inspection, but no mention of emissions testing on the same page info for new residents. When do I get tested? I have a car that will need emission-related repairs, so I want to fail the test first, so my repairs go towards an emissions waiver.
WHEN? Prior to registration? After? Any time? Is it independent of the registration process?



Answer
Probably right when you get there.

I found this white Ford Mustang for sale, while i was looking for parking at my school. Its priced at $2,800 and its the older version of the new Mustangs. When I call for info what should I ask? Im a girl so I dont know much about cars! & the price sounds good!


Answer
1. do they have any maintenance reciepts that they could show you to prove the car has been taken care of?
2. how old are the tires?
3. has the car ever been wrecked?
4. Is the check engine light on?
5. Does is have a clear title?
6. Does it have recent emmisions testing papers(if your area requires emmisions testing)
7. When was the oil last changed?
8. Where does the car get taken when it needs oil changes/small repairs? Is there a mechanic who is familiar with the car?
9. Do the windows roll up and down?
10. Does the cruise control work (if equipped)
11. Does the heat/air work?
12. Has the car ever overheated? What was done to fix the car?
13. How many miles are on the car?
14. Does electrical components work well in the car? (door locks, lights on dash)
15. Do the headlights/tailights/blinkers work?
16. How old are the brakes?
17. Do the brakes squeel?
18. Does the car accelerate normally? If not the transmission might be going out!
19. Whens the last time the transmission fluid was changed?
20. When were all of the filters (transmission&oil) changed?
21. Is it an automatic or manual?
22. Has the car ever had a tune up?
23. Does the windshield wipers work?
24. Does the car leak oil?
25. Does the car idle smoothly? at what rpms does it idle?





these are just a few questions i would ask!
and if you buy it, you may want to get a tune up for it...get all the filters changed, all the fluids replaced.
AND ALWAYS RESEARCH THEIR ANSWERS!
like if they say the heat doesnt work, research why the heat doesnt work on the specific car you are looking at! This could help you see if their are going to be future problems with the vehicle and how much it might take to fix!

What are some things a teen could make and sell for their small buisness?

Q. I'm saving up for a car, and decided to start a small business on the internet. I'm good at making jewelry, and have actually sold my jewelry in earlier years. I'm not sure if people would actually buy my jewelry on the internet without seeing and touching the merchandise, so I'm currently contemplating the idea. Jewelry making and writing are my main talents, but I don't see a way I can make a profit off my writing ability. Does anyone have any suggestions?


Answer
You might try mixing both. A guide to younger girls on how to make specific items of jewelry could be good for community groups. Perhpas you could sell an ebook with a pattern to one of the pieces you make for a dollar. Or 7 pieces for $5. But make sure you give them something extra for free and include some testimonies from previous customers, or pictures of your jewelry.

Or you could sell kits to make the jewelry, or sell easy pieces for cheap as a fundraiser for pre-schools. Then there is ebay, yard sales/flea markets, and having others help you sell for a commission.

In terms of your writing abilities, there are a host of ways to use that to make money. You need to consult with a business strategist, check out some ebooks, or review some info on the subject on YouTube, eHow.com, SelfGrowth.com, ezines and other online resources. They massively abound right now.

Since the Internet is world wide and once you set up the process, you can make money at any time from anywhere.

Professionals only: When is the best time to send out a press release?

car wash news on Someone give the lady a wand, and a pressure washer.
car wash news image



chikita797


I am running a car wash for JDRF at my job. We want to notify the radio stations and newspaper that we are having a car wash. I want to send out a press release. I took two PR classes, I just can't remember what the best time to send out a press release is! Thanks for your help!


Answer
If you're asking time of day: as a journalist, I get these things all day long. But speaking from my PR background, I think its best to see all mass mailings and news releases when I arrive at work in the morning - so the best time to send would be late in the day or after hours. The most important part is to keep it brief and if sending to multiple media outlets, bcc all the addresses. In about 4-7 days you could follow up with a phone call.

If you're asking time of year: For a car wash event I would expect a release coinciding with the onset of warmer weather.

What is the risk or chances at this business?




QA


Hello everyone.

I live in a city of about 35,000 people. Recently I saw a business ad in the news. In short, they were selling a car wash for 207K. My question is what are the chances of someone succeeding at this type of business, and what kind of risks would the prospecting entrepreneur be looking into?
Located in Michigan



Answer
I spend 5 years working in the car wash business. I worked for a very successful company and considered buying and operating a small one myself.

Here are a few facts you should consider.

1. You will need to be able to do all the maintenance yourself. If not, your toast from the start.

2. Some guy is selling because it is not throwing off the cash he wants to justify his time and/or investment. Nearly no one sells a car wash that is doing great. They guy I worked for sold out when he turned 87.

3. Even a self serve coin op requires at least 25-30 hours a week of work. If it is a busy location and making money it can easily require 60 hours a week. If you can't spend this much time, your toast. Oh, and it is hard physical labor too.

4. Good help is nearly impossible to find and you must pay them very well, or your toast.

5. The location that makes the most money is always the newest one in town. So at the least you can figure that you are going to need to do a major remodel and cleanup. for a 6 bay self serve or 2 bay roll over you well need to spend an easy $35K up front. If not, your toast.

6. Is it in a location that becoming more desirable or less desirable to live in? Declining or even stable neighborhoods = lost income.

Answer
Bring someone with you who has experience. Car salesmen are pretty reptillian and they'll try to take you for every penny you have.

A couple of good sites to do research on this are www.edmunds.com and www.consumerreports.org. In addition to information on various makes and models, they also have general articles on how to buy a new car.

What do you think Agents detain 15 suspected illegal immigrants in Henderson County?

car & van news on Modec Zero emission Electric Vans
car & van news image



THE GREATE


Fifteen illegal immigrants were arrested and transported to the Henderson County Detention Facility on Dec. 15, according to a news release from the Henderson County Sheriff's Office. The suspects were charged with violations of immigration laws.

On Dec. 14, the Henderson County Sheriff's Office received a disturbance complaint. The caller stated there were four males at the Bonaire Motel bragging they were illegal aliens and ârunning up and down the hallway saying you can't touch us.â The caller thought the individuals causing the disturbance were staying in Room 32 and were associated with a white Ford van with a Georgia license plate.

The call was relayed to the local Immigrations & Customs Enforcement Criminal Apprehension office. CAP is a team of federal agents assigned to Western North Carolina but operates out of the Henderson County Sheriff's Office.

Federal agents conducted surveillance and requested uniformed officers in marked cars for assistance. The investigation revealed a total of 15 illegal immigrants on the premises.

Of those 15 illegal immigrants discovered, three had been removed from the country at least once before, investigators said. These individuals had criminal histories, including assault and battery with aggravated physical force, assault and battery, two domestic violence protective orders against them, larceny, harassing phone calls, two counts of possession of illegal drugs and possession of drug paraphernalia. A fourth man has been linked to gang activity, specifically âSUR 13.â Additionally, agents and deputies located a loaded firearm.

http://www.blueridgenow.com/article/20101219/ARTICLES/12191031/1008/sports?Title=Agents-detain-15-suspected-illegal-immigrants-in-Henderson



Answer
I am truly surprised the law did anything to these illegal aliens, it seems the liberals want this nation full of these kind of people. Arizona made a law that would help keep these kind of people out of country, and Obama sued Jan Brewer the Arizona Governor and other law makers in the State of Arizona for trying to keep these exact same kind of people out our nation claiming it was racist.



@ Reality has a Liberal Bias. It is just like this idiot Hussein Obama to throw money at every problem instead of working with the people that knows what is happening and shutting down our border to illegal aliens. He would rather sue Arizona for its efforts of stopping illegal aliens than shut down the border to illegal aliens.

They don't need 600 million dollars or 1,000 more Border Patrol agents, they need for Hussein Obama to help with the problem by not suing states that is trying to stop the flow of illegal aliens into this country. We need to put the Military on our border with orders to shoot to kill anyone crossing our border illegally. That is what it will take to stop this problem, but you will not see that happening with this present administration.

Answer
Wynonna, Girls with Guitars. I'll look for the lyrics and post if I can find them.

She turned fifteen with great expectations
Her older brother knew somethin? was up
He caught her going through his record collection
Lookin? at hendricks like a love sick pup
She begged and she pleaded till dad finally listened
He drove her in the car down to sears roebuck
He bought her that guitar and that was the beginning
Now shes down in the cellar with the amp turned up

Girls with guitars
Daddys little angel
Girls with guitars
Whats the world coming to?
Girls with guitars
Mothers tend to worry about
Girls with guitars

Well, saturday nights she followed her brother
It was socks and stockings on the old gym floor
While everybody danced to garage band covers
She was checking out riffs and memorizing chords
She didnt care at all for the football heroes
She didnt even notice the basketball stars
Boys as a species were all a bunch of zeroes
Except for the ones that played that guitar

Girls with guitars
She wasnt any debutante
Girls with guitars
She didnt go out for cheerleading
Girls with guitars
Boys are kinda nervous round
Girls with guitars

She went off to college, she got her degree
Her parents breathed a sigh of great relief
Daddys thinking law school, mothers thinking medicine
Daughters thinking how shes gonna break the news to them

Now theres an old chevy van just sitting in the driveway
Filled to the gills with all her stuff
She cut a deal with her brother to drive up the highway
Figures new york city is close enough
She gets the audition through a friend of a friend
Whos checking out her legs saying, this will never work!
She flips on her boogie and turns to the band
Gives a little grin and blows away the jerk

Girls with guitars
Now everybodys rockin? br> girls with guitars
There ought to be a song about
Girls with guitars
Theres just no stopping those
Girls with guitars

Why doesn't anybody in this forum ask for information about immigrating to Japan, South Korea or Hong Kong?

car news singapore on ... Singapore All New | Carmexxline  The Latest News Car from the Auto
car news singapore image



Sniper of


I mean, everybody from 3rd world countries is always asking questions on how to get into countries like France, Brittain, Germany, Australia, US and Canada, while Hong kong, Japan and South Korea are also all fine examples of advanced nations. Yet, no-one seems willing to take up residence there. Why do they always ask about the same places?


Answer
BRAVO to YOU, Topsail Mayhem! An excellent question, indeed! I've lived in Taiwan and loved every smokin' minute of it. I have so many friends from Japan, Korea, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, etcetera, that I speak Chinese better than English (almost...hehe)

There are only a few reasons people would not be so quick to immigrate there and LANGUAGE is NOT one of them. Or, at least it shouldn't be. Chinese has no plural or singular, no verb tenses or conjugations of any kind, no masculine or feminine.

Just learn the tones and the words, some grammar - common sentence structure - and you're off like a herd of Pekingfish.

But China is a long way from most nations of any deeper poverty than their own rural poor. No jobs they won't have already filled. So why go? Many immigrants from our south come for freebies. In China? Forget it! Birthright citizenship? BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHA... ... hehehe.. hehe... mmmMMMBWAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Oh... oh my... that hurt! Get real!

Japan is an Island with no natural resources. And their government is peculiarly quick to hear the people. When labor shortages were answered by "returning" ethnic Japanese from Brazil to Japan, the jobs were quickly filled but the newcomers acted terribly unreserved in the eyes of locals. Complaints were constant: they play their music loud in their cars and homes, the bass is deafening, they urinate outside, on Saturday and Sunday night, they get drunk and drive up and down main street, honking their horns, they butcher animals outside where children can see and... worst of all... they DON'T SPEAK JAPANESE!!!!

I guess that must be uh... "racist"? to some people?

Korea? Don't know much about Korea. They're different. All I know from my Korean friends is that the ladies seem to have a mean-streak (not always, but best not take any chances), they all get along with Japanese and become their college roommates but, in textbooks and news stories, Japan is the Devil. Go figure.

Hong Kong is now in the same situation as China. By which I mean, they ARE China.

So, all that said, the best thing for impoverished countries to do is NOT go where they are but DO WHAT THEY DID!!!!!

Why don't the Japanese whaling vessels simply ram these bunny huggers and send them to the bottom?




NONAME


http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/as_antarctica_whaling

Interfering with a merchant vessel in international waters borders on piracy. Why do the Japanese continue to show such restraint? It would be very simple to "accidentally" harpoon the smelly hippie protesters and sink their vessel.

How can a girl prevent herself from being kidnapped or murdered?




HotYang9


Ive seen alot of news stories on this happening and im scared to like go out alone. Recently a girl went to like target 2 get her bf something 4 his b-day. Then she was kidnapped and police found her dead! so I need tips as to how to prevent this sort of thing.What are you supposed to do like if your alone and then approached by a kidnapper,rapist, murder or such? Should I carry something. Ive heard that screaming doesnt even help! any advice please!


Answer
1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do: The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!

2. Learned this from a tourist guide in New Orleans. If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from you....chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you, and he will go for the wallet/purse. RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!




3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The driver won't see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives.




4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc. DON'T DO THIS!) The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your head, and tell you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR, LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.




a. If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF, repeat: DO NOT DRIVE OFF! Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car. Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat they will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes bail out and run. It is better than having them find your body in a remote location.


5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:
A.) Be aware: look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor, and in the back seat.
B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars.
C.) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out.


IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)


6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is especially true at NIGHT!)

7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN, Preferably ! in a zig -zag pattern!


8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP. It may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked "for help" into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.


************* Here it is *******


9. Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she thought it was weird. The police told her "Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door."


The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over. The policeman said, "We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do, DO NOT open the door." He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night.

YUKON


http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Obama-says-automakers-need-apf-14762428.html

Obama is going to raise the fuel economy standards for 2011 model year cars and trucks, just one more thing the auto companies have to worry about.

Why doesent the government at least wait till they get back on their feet.



Answer
0'Bama is building a model.

It will be a model with the appropriate, or inappropriate depending on your point of view, agencies / bureaucracies, that will be in place for the future nationalizations of companies that make more money than the he or the government is comfortable allowing.
This method will by-pass congressional approval with so many different pieces of legislation that no congress, committee or parliamentary body could eliminate it in one vote.

Companies will only be allowed to make as much money as they can to meet the criteria of some employee collective bargaining agreement, pay the managers an agreed upon salary with NO bonuses for performance, pay the taxes and provide an account for marginal, scheduled expansion.

If by some miracle the company makes more money than that, the government will take it over declaring it an economic risk and run it into the ground so that another company fills the void.
Then the cycle will repeat itself.

See: Venezuela, Uruguay, Bolivia, Laos, Cambodia, Russia.

What exactly is an International Photojournalist?

Q. How does it differ from the regular Photojournalism? (local)


Answer
"Photojournalism" is a term coined by Americans where two separate occupations have been joined together -- journalism and news photography.

In many countries, and Australia is one, it is not allowed for a person to work in such a combined manner. One is either a photographer of a journalist. (It is a union "separation of labour")

Domestically, one shoots within ones' own country, most likely shooting fires, fatal car accidents, hold-ups and other domestic stories while an international photojournalist would be classified as a "foreign correspondent" and working in a foreign country covering international stories including wars.
examples --
a) The British photographer, Tim Page, working in Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam during the Second Indochina (Vietnam) War.
b) The Australian Photojournalist, John Everingham, (photographing for AP and UPI plus writing for AP and Newsweek) working in Laos and later in Thailand shooting mostly "travel" material for airlines and travel magazines along with writing stories for the same outlets.
c) The German photographer, Dieter Ludwick, working in Cambodia for AP and also CBS during the Second Indochina War.
d) The American photographer, Al Rockoff, who worked for AP in Cambodia during the Second Indochina War and has returned to Cambodia much later.
e) Myself, working for Visnews, UPITN, and UPI in Cambodia during the Second Indochina War and later in Thailand, Laos, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Pakistan for Visnews and Reuters.

Did anyone nothing that or are they now saying what we can see and hear?



Answer
Because as the story started to gain momentum on Twitter, with live cameraphone footage from Tehran, the government and chief cleric cracked down with motorbikes & henchnmen. They were then filmed gunning down a defenseless young, pretty Iranian on the way to her car aside a maistro, compelled to recant the truth. The mother was braver, refusing to be bribed by the embarassed state.

What do you think should be done about the middle east ?

Every day i watch the news, i see the same thing. 20 people died from car explosion
in Iraq, the next day - 30 people died from an explosion in Pakistan, the next day -
40 people has been killed in a blast in the Pakistani capital, the next day - 50 people
has been killed in Afghanistan and so on so fourth.

What do you think should be done ?

But aren't you worried or concern that innocent human beings are dying
every day by the dozen ? If we don't help them, who will ? What if you were in their
position, would you not want somebody to help you end this suffrage ?



Answer
Wow, so many racists thinking that their uneducated opinions are worth something...

The problems you mention are national security issues, not international. Therefore, if there is anything to do, it should be done by local authorities, not anyone else.
Regarding Syria, I believe that arming the rebels is a very bad idea as even though some of them have good intentions, others have shown they aren't much better than the dictatorship in power by allying to Al Qaeda. I believe an international force including forces from Muslim countries should intervene.
And about Israel: it is time the UN enforces international law to stop the crimes committed by the Israeli government, as they show no respect for human rights and their cruelty to Palestinians seems to have no limit, even after stealing their land.

I heard about this yesterday on the NBC5 news.

Personally I think its a load of crap that will never work. For one its an open public area, whats gonna happen next is it gonna be illegal to smoke in my own home?

I want to hear your views on the ban and any feedback as to what I feel if you agree or disagree.



Answer
Just the latest action in the systematic dismantling of the tobacco industry !!
They have recently past a law (in California) that goes into affect in January that makes it illegal for an individual to smoke in their own car if anyone under age 18 is riding with them ---- the home is next -- they will run this under the "child endangerment" laws first --- then they will top it off with the total outlawing OF tobacco !!

The thing that MOST nonsmokers do not get ---- and the thing that they are NOT being told --- is the FACT that tobacco has a MAJOR tax load on its shoulders --- and many programs and services --- both state AND Federal run from these tax bases --- When Tobacco goes -- so does this revenue -- and when that revenue goes --- the agencies and programs that run from its money --- will NOT be shutting down !! The non-smoker will see tax increases like they have never in their life even DREAMED of !!! Billions !!! And, those dismantling the industry and those supporting them WILL NOT BE ADMITTING THIS TO ANYONE !!!!! For, it flys in the face of what they are trying to do !!

Next, look for the regulation of fatty foods and legislation against people who opt to feed their children on anything considered "an alternative" diet of any kind !! Full bore regulation of our entire lives is what these people are after -- and they are setting precidents here that will make these other things --- EXTREMELY EASY in the future -- they're just taking the "less popular things" first !!!!!

If you were a mother in Syria, which of these would you rather feed your starving children?

Answer
SAD ...

People tie the Arab spring to things: do not like, they fear, or they have interest in. Arab spring is where normal Arab people rebelled against corruption, discrimination, opportunistic, living under slavery of dictators and their families and relatives. Arab spring has nothing to do with the outside world or others outside the Arab states except oppositions living in exile/s. The Arab spring has nothing to do with religions and religious issues. Arabs, for the first time, were able through the web such as facebook and Twitter to organize large demonstrations against Dictators.

⢠First : (TUNISIA)
Arab Spring started in Tunisia:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohamed_Bouazizi
Google: mohamed bouazizi

⢠Last : (SYRIA)
Because of the extreme fear and intimidation Syrians lived with for 42 years. Under the same illegal, racial, criminal, most ugly regime in the world. The last Arab state that joined the Arab spring was Syria.
The last uprising against this regime was in the 1982. Where the last Illegal president Hafez Assad and his brother killed 40.000 Syrians to appease them and destroyed the city of Hamah.

Google : Hamah city,

The current uprising started In the Syrian city of Daraâa on the border with Jordan. Where some kids, influenced by the TVâs news of the Arab spring in other Arab states, wrote things on a wall where the kids were forcefully taken from their parents, imprisoned, tortured, their nails were taken of, and at the beginning refused to free them under any circumstances. As a result their parents rebelled and some of them were shot died by the regime. This resulted the uprising to start and escalate in many other areas of Syria.
For many months, the regime as used to in the last 42 years, used extreme force, torture, and direct killing against peaceful protestors and accused them of all kind of bad accusations and telling the world that they have been fighting terrorists. The same way did in the last 42 years of tutoring under the lie that they were fighting Israel and America. Anybody opposed that lie was taken, tortured, considered traitor and executed. They banned the international media from entering Syria and converted it into a large prison. All that resulted in the escape of soldiers with their arms from the army and established small armed groups to protect civilians. Later, armed struggle against the regime started after months of daily killing of civilians and no help of any kind from outside Syria.

Now over 30.000 were killed, 100s of thousands in prisons, women have been raped by the regime, Kids and babies have been slaughtered, millions fled the country, cities have been destroyed by most sophisticated arms. The Syrian regime even, have been bullying, harassing, and threatening Syrians and/or others around the world who opposed. Unfortunately, still there is nobody really helping to stop the massacres until now.

Google: The Syrian Revolution (English) | Facebook - (Includes massacreâs photos)

Al-Baâath party has 2 branches, one ruling Syria under Al-Assad and the other was ruling Iraq under Saddam Husain with the same ideology and ideas.

The Syrian story started with the father (Hafez Assad) who came from the poor Alawis village (Qardaha) on the Syrian coast. He wanted to study medicine but he couldnât because he was too poor. He went to the military school and later he and his colleagues in Al-Baâath party illegally and forcefully overthrew the government and took over the power in Syria. Then, Assad imprisoned those colleagues until they died in prisons and controlled Syria alone with his family and made Syria the only Apartheid Arab state. Alawis from Qardaha and other Alawis villages invaded the Syrian cities like Locusts and controlled all kind of high positions in Syria. The way they speak has a tune and some special words and this distinguished them. Syrians feared them to death whenever they are because they know that they are above the law. Directly after Hafez Assad passed away, the constitution was altered and his son Bashar inherited illegally the presidency of Syria and the regime remained the same. Now, Al-Assad family and cousins and relatives control absolutely everything in Syria, and they became one of the richest worldwide and that is one reason why they do not want to leave power.
The other reason is that they are Alawis, a religious group who follow the Shia (Iran) in Islam; and that why Iran is unconditionally supporting them. Iran has been helping the regime by influencing Russia and china in the UN, supplying the regime with arms and Iranian soldiers. Iranian official said that the victory of Assad is the victory of Iran.

Nobody is assisting the Syrians. (Assad = Hitler)'s regime has been taking advantage of the careless and reluctant Arab and international situation and has been dropping TNT barrels on civilians and committing genocide. The current Holocaust is going on in Syria

Here are a few photos of the real deal that leaked out. I know they are real because of the rims.
I'm glad they kept it true to the concept.



Answer
I saw the concept car at Mopars at the Strip last year. The car was surrounded by people all the time, lots of positive feedback about the design.

I wonder if they'll offer them in the 70's colors, like In Violet, Panther Pink, Sublime Green. That would rock.

I see more and more kia cars on the road than ever before. They are becoming popular cars. There was news recently that kia now outsells chrysler cars. 10 years back it was unimaginable that kia can ever outsell any US automaker.


Answer
I think it just depends on where you live. I'm in the Southwest and see quite a few Chrysler 300s being driven.

How do I get a car loan if my parents are not able to co sign for me and I have no credit built up at age 18?

car loan info on ... seek prequalified or preapproved loan information? | CarFinance.com
car loan info image



Jason M


My parents do not have the best credit and cannot co-sign for me for a car loan. I am a manger for OfficeMax and make very good money but I have nobody to co-sign. What can I do??
Also, I live in missouri if that makes a difference.



Answer
It's possible to get an auto loan w/ no credit & no cosigner. It's not guaranteed but you'll be required to put a LOT down on the vehicle and the bank will want to see recent pay stubs, bank statements(It helps to show both checking and savings accounts), and statements from your broker if you have any money market accounts. They will also check with your employer to verify that you're actually employed by Office Max and you may even have to show a recent 1099 to prove the income you put on the loan application.

Since you're only 18, be sure to check on insurance before you even try for the vehicle. Most banks required you to hold full coverage on the vehicle until it's paid off. And the reason I'm saying this is because even if your MVR is 100% clean, full coverage on anything will be high.

ps:
Don't negotiate any loans from links or email addresses that were spammed on here. All they're trying to do is obtain your personal info..

Where can I get a car loan in Michigan/Ohio with bad credit?




Felicia W


I am told that there are some car lots who will allow you to re-establish credit with a car loan--even if the interest rate is higher. I need another vehicle ASAP!


Answer
You CAN get a decent car loan, even with bad credit. I've done it, but you'll have to look around. That's one of the BIG mistakes people make...just taking the first offer that's given to them when they go to the dealer. Be smarter than that.

WARNING: DON'T GO TO BUY A CAR WITHOUT HAVING THE LOAN FIRST. The auto dealers will eat you alive and give you a crappy rate. Shop around with lenders who specialize in bad credit car loans. It's a better option, you don't have to take what they're offering if you don't want it, and it's better than dealing with the car dealer's people.

There are usually some nationally based car loan companies who specialize in bad credit car loans who advertise on the page linked below...

When do I take my toddler out of the car seat and into a booster?

car design news on Japan Car exhibition - Car Design News
car design news image



livelife


I have read all different answers on this topic. My daughter is only 3 but she is 36 inches tall and 40 pounds. Is it safe to put her into a booster? Her car seat harness is starting to get very tight (I have loosened it as much as possible) Thanks!


Answer
Car crashes are the leading cause of both disability and death for children in the United States- and they are for a reason.

Just a few weeks ago, a 3 year old was killed while riding in a booster seat: http://www.ktnv.com/news/local/187038601.html

My greatest sympathies are for the parents- it really just takes an instant to loose a child.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that children ride in a forward facing car seat with a harness for as long as possible. The AAP recommendations say that moving a child to the next step is a decrease in your child's level of protection. In fact, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) says to keep 4 to 7 year olds in a car seat with a harness until they have outgrown it: http://www.safercar.gov/parents/RightSeat.htm

There are many car seats with tall top harness strap slots and high forward facing weight limits. Here is my recommended list:

-Baby Trend Fastback (18" top slots; 70 lb weight limit with harness)
-Evenflo SecureKids 300 or 400 model (18" top slots; 65 lb weight limit with harness)
-Graco Nautilus (18" top slots; 65 lb weight limit with harness)
-Graco Argos 70 (18" top slots; 70 lb weight limit with harness)
-Recaro Prosport (19" top slots; 90 lb weight limit with harness)
-Britax Frontier 85 (20" top slots; 85 lb weight limit with harness)
-Britax Frontier 85 SICT (20" top slots; 85 lb weight limit with harness)

We all know that car seats pass standards. But what are these standards? Federal standards say that a child's head can move as far as 32 inches from the vehicle seat back when installed without the top tether. The top tether is extremely important as it reduces this forward movement as much as 4-6 inches. If you were to measure 32 inches in your vehicle- you may be very surprised.

Every car seat on the market comes with the top tether, however, vehicles made after September of 2002 have factory installed top tether anchors. These anchors can be found on the rear shelf in a sedan, on the back of a captain's chair, or on the ceiling in an SUV.

The Britax Frontier 85 only goes up to 65 lbs without the top tether, however using the top tether is always recommended. The SICT model of the Frontier 85 does not require the top tether at any weight.

A booster seat just sits on the vehicle seat. It is not attached to the vehicle seat in anyway. Then you thread the lap and shoulder seat belt through the belt guides as said in the manual. A booster seat is designed to lift a child up for a better seat belt fit- by placing the lap belt on the child's hips and the shoulder belt between the child's neck and collar bone.

Not all booster seats are doing their job- some boosters put the lap belt on the child's tummy. During a crash, it will sink in, injuring the child's inner organs and spinal cord. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) rates how well booster seats position the adult seat belt on the child's body.

Here are their results: http://www.iihs.org/research/topics/boosters/default.html

If you are going to put your 3 year old in a booster anyways, I would recommend the Graco Turbobooster in highback as it does a great job positioning the adult seat belt.

As a side note, all car seat manufacuturers prohibit the use of aftermarket products. This includes a child's bulky winter coat. This is because during a crash, the coat will compress, leaving the harness really loose on a child. This will mean that head excursion will increase, or in a severe case, the child will be ejected from their seat.

I got home from the airport and realized my suitcase has a huge rip in it! What do I do?




BradJC4


It was a Delta flight from Atlanta to Cleveland. I just threw my bag in the car and went home when I noticed it; the info says I have to go back to the airport within 24 hours, but its too damn far.


Answer
i do not see any chance of getting reimbursed for the damamge if not notified upon arrival to the airline staff.

i had my suitcase totally damaged a few months back and inspite of the damage report issued by their staff at an overseas airport they wanted me to take the bag to their ny office ( i leave in nj ) for visual inspection.

as i had discarded the bag in india there was no way i could
have taken it to their office.

i will get reimbursed but they try to make it difficult.

again,if you keep on calling them they might but that is a long shot.

good luck

How does the Prius get such good mileage compared to its fellow hybrids?

hybrid car info on ... and Standard Accord Hybrid Photos and Info - Official Photos and Info
hybrid car info image



perryloung


I have just started doing research on hybrid cars and the second car on the list was only 40 mpg compared to the Prius's (average and city, not highway) 48 mpg. BTW that car is the Honda Civic hybrid.

is it the size of the car, is it built differently, etc etc...
please help...tell me all the info you know about it, and if you own one, how you like it. :o)



Answer
The Prius gets better gas mileage than other similar hybrids because it has a smaller gasoline engine.

For instance, the Highlander Hybrid gets only 18 city / 24 highway because it has a 3.5L gasoline engine coupled to its Hybrid Synergy Drive.

The Prius on the other hand has only a 1.5L gasoline engine coupled to its Hybrid Synergy Drive, so it gets 48 / 45.

Comparison to other types of hybrid systems (Such as Honda's Integrated Motor Assist) is well-explained by Geog_nerd.

Personally, I prefer Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive to Honda's IMA system, because the Toyota HSD is a more reliable setup.

The Honda IMA uses a belt-driven CVT transmission, which is a more complex transmission, using pulleys and friction belts-- More things to wear out. The Prius HSD uses just one planetary gearset (using metal toothed gears-- No belts, no gear shifting, no clutches), which is a lot simpler, which in turn means it's more solid and reliable.

This is the reason why the NYC Taxi Fleet uses Hybrid Synergy Drive vehicles (Highlander Hybrids) and Ford's similar Power Split Device vehicles (Ford Escape Hybrid) rather than Honda IMA hybrids-- The HiHys and FEHs have taken daily abuse heaped on them by cabbies but can still run 200,000 miles with no problems. I doubt you can do that with Chris N's turdy Honda IMA hybrids, who obviously has absolutely no clue how the various hybrid systems work.

EDITED TO ADD:

Damp_55: The Prius has a 1.5L engine, not a 1.0L.

top gun: Toyota isn't the only car maker offering a full hybrid. Ford also offers the Ford Escape Hybrid, which uses a full-hybrid Power Split Device drive system very similar to the Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive. Nissan also offers the Altima Hybrid, which also uses the Toyota HSD.

What's the best way to start looking for hybrid SUVs?




notgreenwi


I'm new to looking at hybrid cars and am not sure what I should be looking for. Any suggestions?


Answer
You can start by going to http://www.hybridcars.com
This site will give you all the info you want about Hybrids in general.

MY PICK:

Ford Escape Hybrid. It's the 'greenest' SUV

It also has a large federal tax incentive available & it has actually gone DOWN in price each year of its production ('05-'06-'07-'08)
Here's a price comparison for you.
http://www.fordvehicles.com/suvs/escape/...
(note; the '08 Hybrid Escape qualifies for a federal tax incentive of $3000 , which has NOT been applied to the prices shown in this example)

I've driven one extensively & it is really FUN to drive.

In my experience, I DOUBLED my MPG (hybrid vs non-hybrid V6 Escape, both 4X4 ) & I drive like a complete idiot!

Also New York City taxi drivers have put HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of miles on theirs (withno problems, btw) & if they can survive that kind of abuse ( LOL ) I think they can handle anything.

What will be cost of living in Alkhobar . Salary SR20000 per month. What will be the potential savings.?

car news kerala on The Hindu : Tamil Nadu / Chennai News : Car fatally knocks two-wheeler ...
car news kerala image



jash


An North Indian got job in Alhobar


Answer
What I would suggest to you is to get online and do a realty rental search for the area that you will be moving too. The amounts listed by another person earlier were not exactly clear. 35000 to 100000 is not in US dollars it is in Saudi Riyals in which $1 US dollar is equal to 3.75 Saudi Riyals. You will divide 35000 by 3.75 and then by 12 months and it will be around $777.78 US dollars per month. The 100000 by 3.75 and then by 12 months and it will be around $2,222.22 per month. The compound homes are very nice and spacious. Even the lower priced ones are nice. The cost of living is extremely low in Saudi Arabia. Utilities are very low about 1/5 of what you pay in the US. We have Dollar stores in the US and Saudi Arabias similar stores only cost about 33 cents for items. Food is also extremely cheap! American fast food resturaunts are equivelant to what you pay in the US but if you have a taste for the local foods and resturaunts you get much better prices. You can get great deals on clothes too! American clothes (also sold there) are expensive but clothes from the region are fairly inexpensive. Be sure and read up on the culture and the way of life over there. It will be somewhat of a change when you go over there. Saudi Arabia has a lot to offer. It is a beautiful country, beautiful culture, and wonderful people. There are many things to do over there.

You can live very comfortably AND save a very nice sum on SR10,500 per month. I know a few Westerners from the UK who earn less than that and they still save a fair amount.

I am guessing you are from Kerala, because every other Indian I meet in Khobar seems to be from there! So you certainly won't get lonely. I plan to go to Kerala soon myself because everyone tells me it's beautiful. Anyway, back to your questions. Obviously the cost of living in Khobar depends on two main factors: how comfortably you want to live, and your skin colour.

If you choose a very modest room, prepare your own food and limit the amount of consumer goods you buy, I would expect to be able to live on as little as SR1,000 a month. If you are Indian, then you could live on half of that.

Ex-pats from the USA, Europe or anyone who is white will pay more when they shop in small, independent shops and for things like apartments. Indians, Philippinos, Chinese and other Asians all pay less. So you are in a very good position because you are earning a Westerners wage but you will be paying Indian prices!

This doesn't apply everywhere though. Supermarkets are the same wherever you come from, as are the big "High Street" shops you find in the shopping malls. The best way to save money is to always shop where there are ex-pats in control, because they are more willing to bargain with you and make a deal, especially if you are Indian. (I don't want to sound racist about this - I am just telling you the way things work out here.)

There are plenty of Indian-run places where you can find basic needs very cheaply. Here is a list of basic items and what they cost. Remember that these are "white" prices and you can expect to pay less for some of the items (all prices are in Saudi Riyals, which is fixed to the dollar at SR3.750=$1)

Basic 2-bed flat (unfurnished): 500 - 1,500
Car rental per month (very basic model): 1,000
Litre of petrol 91 octane: 0.450
Litre of petrol 95 octane: 0.600
Packet of cigarettes (Marlboro): 5.50
Pint of milk: 3
Green curry and rice in Thai restaurant: 15
Arab News (English lang. newspaper): 2
Basic Shirts from market: 10
Basic Trousers from market: 15

I don't know about phoning India, but I am sure it is easy because of the large number of Indians who are here.

It looks like you have an excellent opportunity before you here and my advice, if you are having doubts, would be to proceed, but with caution. If everything works out well, you will have a great time, meet lots of lovely people and make a lot of money.

A word of warning, however, Raja, before you make a commitment. Saudi agencies are not the most trustworthy and many of them treat their employees poorly. This is especially true of workers from Asia. It seems that there is a scandal reported every day in the local press regarding ex-pat workers being abused or mistreated by unscrupulous agencies. So be very careful. Make sure you examine the contract you are offered very carefully and seek professional advice if you have any doubts about anything. Make sure that EVERYTHING is written into your contract and NEVER rely on promises or verbal assurances, no matter how well you think you know the other person.

I hope that you enjoy your time while living there. Good luck

Spiritually speaking is there any Sunami Warnings anywhere near Cochin.. ?




jayakrishn


The reason for me asking this is something like here in Palluruthy in Cochin, Kerala, there seems to be some peculiarity within the Atmosphere with some kind of a dry feeling .. Motor no more pumping water from underground today .. Local Kerala Vision Channel says, Ocean going back about 30 meters today in TV .. Toilets sucking in the Water that usually do not happen during rainy times like this .. When I was thinking about in which route I should try taking the car if some calamity happens, then immediately Maruthi Car Service people from Edappally simply calling just to confirm the address that they already have, not for any Service Call or any other reason .. My Brother in law calling and telling to hold, going out on a deal .. Few other ones devotted to some Organised Structures leaving the Place Palluruthy today morning .. When all things associated together along with the 30 meter withdrawel news of Arabian Sea, could there be some Gudha Samkhyam aspects of Nature for some kind of planned Sunami .. especially since I wrote a caption on this pic in Yahoo Caption Contest ..

http://in.news.yahoo.com/caption-this--35.html

Not for any panicking or something .. Spiritually speaking, Could there be some planned agenda of Nature in all these things .. specially this water being sucked in by some force and a special kind of dry feeling with weather that seems to be prevailing now in Palluruthy ..

Anyway I just mentioned some of the symptoms that I am feeling at Home today .. Maybe the Authorities in Control needs to analyse better if they want to give out some warnings ..

By the way, this is another profile of mine .. that I made in my Father's care off .. since I thought revealing some of the extra profiles that I created myself .. I don't know whether the New IT laws allow creating such multiple ids by the same person, perhaps in different care-offs ..

http://answers.yahoo.com/activity?show=hJHrcaL9aa

These are just some rands, need not be connected with Actual happenings, but then some caution with an Udgitha seems okay especially with the water withdrawel symptoms ..

But I would really like to know Spiritually whether there are some Sunami Warnings .. Off late, I have some strange feelings that sometimes, some of these calamities could be Man Made too, sometimes even using some kind of powerful Vacuuming methods ..

What are your thoughts .. ?? ..
I was just pondering about the Spiritual aspects of Water Withdrawels that's happening at my place along with the news on a local channel about the withdrawel of Sea for about 30 meters .. just added some of the coincidences too .. I know Scientific Post - Mortems mostly happen after the incidents, but I was just wondering about, whether there are some pro-active Spiritual aspects regarding this withdrawel of Sea .. maybe I just tried to observe some Samkhyam aspects too along with the some of the coincidents too ..

.. need not mean some Sunami, but just observing how might things turn out to be in the next few days or so with the peculiarities of Nature .. I was thinking whether there could be some lighter aspects happening in the coming up few days, perhaps like Car Break Downs or Deal Break Downs or Some other Break Downs or something else .. Otherwise why should Sea be withdrawing .. ?? .. I don't know whether Science might be able to give some answers on this Sea Withdrawel Effect .. but then it could be interesting to observe some of these coincidences ..

Some say, the Sea Withdrawel is happening from Chettuva to Kodungalloor .. maybe the borewell at our home also might have got sucked in because of this Sea Withdrawel.. perhaps more findings and news once the plumbing technician arrives ..
