Really Dr. Archana Dhawan Bajaj is best in nation
Myself Mr. Mishra [46yrs] and my spouse Ms. Reena mishra[44yrs] have been married since 14years and planning to have kids all these years. We are residents of India, staying in USA from past many years. We consulted many gynaecologist and infertility doctors to have a solution to our problem. All our efforts are in vain. We are highly depressed and seemed as if darkness is spread in our lives. We are in search of a dawn "However long the night, the dawn will break"
In our search on the internet about various infertility clinics across the globe, who can buildup the hope and bring twilight in our lives, We found Dr. Archana's Institute For fertility as one of the best fertility clinic in India rendering various services to infertile couples from all over the world to attain their dream of parenthood. We first approached through mails. The reply was so impressive. Warm welcome that we found while receiving us gave a hope and decided to take the treatment under her guidance. As my spouse is 44 years old and had multiple uterine fibroids and endometriosis, for which she had taken the treatment in other reputed clinic. Unfortunately it was uneventful. So, we decided to opt for oocyte donor along with surrogacy keeping in view of her health. As I will not be available during the treatment period due to my busy job schedule, I had my semen samples frozen. We were successful in the first IVF cycle only. When we heard about the news we are so happy and delighted and seemed as if an impossible dream come true for us.
Now she is in her 6th month of pregnancy. We look forward for the baby's arrival in this world with huge anticipation. We long for the day when we can finally physically carry our baby in our arms and look at our baby in the eyes. The moment my wife heard the news, she busted in tears and said
"I begin to love the baby
and to anticipate her birth
as a fresh twist to a knot,
which I do not wish to untie."
Last but not the least, for the couple who are facing a problem to have children I would like to say few words about Dr. Archana Dhawan and her team, "Their enthusiasm, energy, involvement and dedication were a constant source of inspiration and spiritual energy which made me take up infertility as a challenge. Her individual interest in her patients, her involvement is to be greatly appreciated which never let us loose hope. Patience, Perseverance and Individual attention is what they provide exclusively at Dr.Archana IVF Centres for which they are the most successful fertility center." - May 26, 2010 at 5:12 AM

Dr Archana Dhawan Bajaj is the worst doctor I have ever seen in my life. She is a dirt to the profession. She is so commercialized and focused on extracting money from the patients. On every visit they charge money for ultrasound and they never give you any ultrasound report just to avoid her responsibility in case anything bad happens. Moreover most of the Ultrasounds are done by her assistant Aarti who is not certified radiologist though there is a radiologist who is seldom present while ultrasound is being done.
She is so concerned about not loosing a client that they have a team of bodyguards outside her clinic and if any disappointed patient approaches her she takes her straight to her office upstairs or straight to her cabin.
She has already spoiled case of my sister as well as one of her friend in the most irresponsible manner I have ever seen. And moreover they are shifting the blame to us and to god after that. My sister's friend had to get operated and got her tube removed suffering 2 months of physical and mental pain. And now doctors are not sure whether she can get pregnant again. My sister's IVF failed and thereafter when we requested her for balance EMBRYOS so that we can get our treatment done elsewhere, she simply provided us with the empty flask which did not contained any embryos. When asked she said their responsibility seized the moment we left her clinic.
My sister's case is already spoiled and I would request others, never go Dr Archana Dhawan Bajaj. She is the most unethical doctor I have ever been to. So please people don't put your life in the hand of such an unethical doctor. - October 16, 2012 at 1:42 AM

Infertility means not being able to get pregnant after one year of trying, Or, six months, if a woman is 35 or older. Women who can get pregnant but are unable to stay pregnant may also be infertile. Infertility is not always a woman's problem. Both women and men can have problems that cause infertility. About one-third of infertility cases are caused by women's problems. Another one third of fertility problems are due to the man.The other cases are caused by a mixture of male and female problems or by unknown problems.

The time when an egg is produced from your ovary is called OVULATION. Ovulation usually occurs each month, and at the same time the lining of your womb becomes engorged with blood ready to receive and nourish the expectant embryo, also your bodies hormones begin to rise in preparation of supporting a pregnancy. This is normally in the middle of your monthly cycle (around day 14 if you have a 28 day cycle). Your egg will live for about 12-24 hours after ovulation.

There are various countries that offer world-class fertility treatments at very minimal costs, however India is considered to be the major and important destination for the IVF patients from the western world. Apart from attaining important savings, IVF Doctors India are using the most recent technology and medical acquaintance and this is why you can easily make use of your money and time when you plan to visit India for IVF treatment. There are several reasons for considering India to be a feasible option and alternate to other IVF services.

When Verizon first offered pre-order on the Droid Maxx I signed up, I later canceled it and chose to wait for the G2. If I changed my mind again and decided to grab another Moto, I would still pick a Maxx over the X. The X has a tough row to hoe.
It's quite simple, make it match up to the hype it had before the announcement. It would be the best selling android device, period.
The ONLY advantage over the others ? Made In America. Dodge did a very good job of marketing their product by going after the patriotic part in people. Moto needs to either figure out a way to market the advantage or cut its losses and move on. Granted it wouldn't boost overseas sales but the way they're marketing it now they're not going to sell a ton of them anywhere. Support Our Troops!!! <><
Another good point. I wonder what is going though their heads right now. Are they trying to figure out ways to sell, have they already thrown in the towel, or they dazed and confused, or are they ok with the loss because the same tech is used in the droid devices so the sells for that phone they are expecting to offset the losses with the X? The big talk 6-7 months ago was that motorola still have to clear out the pipeline of phones. Well if the droid ultra is the pipeline and the motorola X is an indication of things to come the Motorola could be in trouble. I am beginning to think the in-fighting rumored to have taken place between google and motorola over the X may have some merit to it. For motorola to compete with Samsung, HTC, and Apple they have to play on their level. They can not continue releasing phones like this. If anything they should have released the X back in the Spring with the S4 and HTC One instead of wait until now to compete with their own product. They are going to have to find that "it" factor that sets it apart from the other devices. Other than the Ultra Maxx with its massive battery power in a small frame I really do not see the "it" factor in the Motorola line that sets it apart from other devices. People point to battery life but the note 2 battery life is on par with the max and the s4 and HTC one is not that bad. SO other oems are finally catching up bringing an all day battery to LTE devices. Motorola radios: Yes motorola makes the best radios and that would be the selling point if we still had the horrible LTE radios that were in the galaxy nexus and Droid charge. Now Samsung's LTE radios are much better. Where I had this built up hate toward them with my nexus all that went away the moment I powered up my note 2. All day with out a hiccup whether it be LTE, GPS, Bluetooth, or WIfi it works as it should. And based on people with the HTC one the same can be said by it. Motorola build quality: Yes that sets it apart some what but we still see razrs with spiderwebbed screens. So I think that many of us have a screen protector, case (or combination of the two), or some type of body shield. So yes that factor will help sell a few phones but it is not enough to set it apart from the others. In this day and age you have to have a device that meets or beats the others. Yeah the Mx8 surprised a lot of us but when people heard dual core that scared a way some people. And even with that being the case they still had a lot of hype when people thought it would be priced at nexus prices when that didnt happen the air was let out of the balloon. Say what you want about this specs war but right now that is what is selling. What if motorola released a droid ultra maxx like device to all 4 carriers with 5 and 5.5 inch screens, 1080p, 13mp camera that was on par with the s4 and Htc one, Quad core with its MX8 tech (guess it would be more like mx32), use moto maker, and released to multiple carriers around mid summer. The phone would have that glamor factor that would bring hype and bring the numbers. Samsung continues to push the limits of tech every time they release a phone, HTC is recovering but are beginning to release phones on par to compete, LG is basically mirroring Samsung devices, while motorola continues to push devices late in they year that would have been revolutionary the year before. Yes I am being hard on Motorola and it is because every year I am seeing them doing the same thing and some how expecting a different result. Some one needs to wake up in Motorola land. Be great or be gone has to be the mindset.
Buy the Moto X...no fancy/power draining skins ontop of the already beautiful Android Jelly Bean OS. No spending a small fortune for a developers edition. No having to buy overpriced plastic ugly colored cases for your phone. Pick up a Moto X. Have it customized to your color choice. Want Pure Vanilla Android you got it. You want an unlocked bootloader..you got it (depending on your carrier). You dont need the useless bells and whistles of the phone knowing when your looking at it. You dont need to glide your hand over the phone to change screens. This is America we do love technology but we also love to feel that technology. Slide your thumb over the beautiful glass screen of the Moto X. Enjoy the way it responds instantly to your touch. Hear the crisp clear sounds coming out of the speakers. The amazing call quality that you can only get from Motorola. See the amazingly luminecent and colorful screen. Made from the highest quality, the nicest materials and so many options to make it your own. And all built for you right here...In the good Ol U.S. Of A.
I would have bought the Moto X hands down if it had the Maxx battery, an sd slot or maybe 32GB of memory (as I enjoy my nexus and not having to have my memory split up), and developer support. Pair that with the user experience that they have provided and you have created a near perfect phone for the masses. As I have said before, I enjoy a smaller screen and would enjoy a top tier phone with a 4.3" screen. A big battery doesn't make the phone thick; the Droid Ultra Maxx is thinner than the Ultra Mini, anyways who really cares if the phone is 3/8" thick compared to 1/4". The Moto X has the form factor of an amazing device. In my opinion, the Moto X is one of the most beautiful phones ever built with its smooth lines, on screen nav keys, and ergonomic shape. Motorola needs to push the sexy factor of the phone, but to a greater extent push how you don't need the most cutting edge tech to have the best phone. What I laugh at is how people with the Note 2, for example, are usually saying, "this is the best phone ever, but I can't wait to replace it with the Note 3." This to me shows that the current model isn't making you as happy as you would like. Motorola needs to show that the Moto X might not have the best specs, but doesn't require them to be the best. Motorola needs to show how fluid Jelly Bean runs on it as well has how the few, but great, software advances they have made will push phone interaction to a new level, while in my experience with S4 users, all of them have turned off the new "amazing" features of the S4 such as the eye tracking. The same thing goes with Siri from Apple, everybody was saying Siri was revolutionary, but a year later rarely does anybody use it. In real world use, you wont see a huge difference the performance of the Moto X compared to the S4, HTC One, ect. Comparing the Moto X to the top tier phones is like saying the Lamborghini Aventador is faster than a Corvette ZR1, which may be true on paper, but in real life the ZR1 can do everything the Lambo can do in. They are all great devices however, I agree that Motorola needs to lower the price on the Moto X if they try to compete spec wise however, if they can show how specs don't drive the cost of the device, the user experience does, they will out sell "top tier" phones. People will pay more for a certain experience over specs, look at Apple iPhones. They haven't had the best specs or even 4G (until recently) for the longest time yet people still pay more initially and iPhones hold there value much longer than any android phone. Just look at the prices on Craigslist or Swappa for an android device vs an iPhone. Example from Swappa: iPhone 4s ($225-$410), Droid Razr ($110-$190). Both came out around the same time , but the iPhone is still going for twice the price that the Razr is going for. A friend recently sent me this link to Droid-Life comparing the Moto X with the S4 and after he read it he said the S4 was the clear winner, but after reading it I noticed how the author spent more time talking about how the Moto X was a better phone than the other way around. User experience is what they need to sell. I recently broke my GNex and replaced it with another GNex (almost a 2 year old device) because I enjoy the user experience of a Nexus (a Verizon LTE Nexus) device over better quadrant scores or other specs.
Well I ordered the x tonight and my s4 is for sale so I guess I'm the minority. Why am I switching you ask? 1. Form factor -the s4 is a little to large for my taste and I love the size and design of the x. 2. Vanilla Android- this as close to a pure vanilla experience I have seen on Verizon since the nexus. 3. Vision- like the way googlerola is heading with not focusing on specs as much but real world performance. Specs only go so far and usually don't translate room everyday usage. Don't get me wrong, the s4 is awesome and I may miss it. My only real issue with it is size. Galaxy S4!!!
No advertising will sell the Moto X to me at the price they are asking. The way to sell it is to lower the price of the 16GB X to $100, the same as the Mini and sell a 32GB model for $150. Even at the same price as the Mini, it is a win/lose for the X. The X has a bigger screen and less bloatware, while the Mini has Kevlar, wireless charging, etc.
Sort of just open. If i or another staff member saw something that was so convincing it intrigued me or the general public to want to buy, especially now with the current phones on the horizon, then not only should that person win but Motorola may want to hire them.

Are you referring to contract price or retail. Retail I'm game for 299 and 399. But contract price to be honest really doesn't matter since by next month it will probably drop to that price point any way. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
Pricing on the X is way too high. I am trying one out now but doubt I will keep it. I do like it. Just can't constitute the price. When you look at it the X and Mini are pretty much the same exact phone. The X does have a bigger screen, but when you add the onscreen buttons of the X it pretty much makes it a 4.3". Mini is LCD and the X is AMOLED. But the Mini has a pixel density of 342ppi over the X which is 316ppi. I did a side by side comparison of both playing several HD videos [FONT=Titillium Web, sans-serif]simultaneously. IMO the Mini looked better. It was sharper and brighter. Other than that h[/FONT]ardware and software are the same. The Mini actually has a few more things in the software department that the X does not. If I decide to stay with the smaller form factor I may pick up a Mini. But if not I think I will either get the Ultra or wait a bit longer for a substantial price drop on the X. I do love the looks and feel of the X. Reminds me very much of the G'Nex and is a breath of fresh air from the looks and feel of the Droid line. Just wish the price was a little more competitive.

A Network Connecting School Leaders From Around The Globe
What Should "Close Reading" Look Like in Elementary Classrooms?
In this article in The Reading Teacher, Douglas Fisher and Nancy Frey (San Diego State University) report on what struck a group of elementary teachers as they observed close reading in secondary English, social studies, and science classrooms. The elementary teachers found that six features differed from the way they taught reading:
The elementary teachers then identified ways they believe close reading needs to be modified in elementary classrooms:
• More reading aloud by the teacher – This is particularly important in the lower grades to help students get the overall picture before getting into close reading.
• Judicious frontloading – The elementary teachers agreed that not all passages needed vocabulary and concepts explained before students started reading – only when it couldn't be figured out while reading the text. One teacher said, "I think we have to get the students to do the heavy lifting now and part of that is to make sure that students are thinking about the text each time they read it." Elementary teachers also agreed that they shouldn't ask questions about students' personal experiences until they had read closely and gained a firm foundation of new knowledge.
• Text-dependent questions – The elementary teachers realized that many of the questions they asked about a book or passage drew out students' personal experiences and could be answered without reading the text. They came up with types of questions that would get students to pay close attention to the words on the page:
• Teaching annotation – Having students "read with a pencil" worried many of the elementary teachers; they didn't want students to get in the habit of writing in classroom books. After much discussion, they agreed on how to phase in annotation, starting with wiki sticks to underline key ideas in big books to underlining major points and circling key words and phrases on a photocopy of a page in third grade to using arrows to make connections in sixth grade.

Kobe benefits most from LeBron hate
No one benefits from LeBron hate more than Kobe Bryant.
Hatred of LeBron — more than even Kobe's five championship rings — is the primary reason Kobe is allowed to delude himself with the notion that he is on equal footing with Magic and Bird and in hot pursuit of Michael Jordan's legacy.
We sell the false Kobe narrative because it fuels and justifies our disdain for King James. The closer Kobe is to NBA royalty, the more distance James must travel and the more people he must pass to get a seat at the table reserved for Jordan, Magic and Bird. LeBron haters don't want him anywhere near the NBA's Lord, Savior and Holy Ghost. LeBron is Judas, in the haters' mind, the man who betrayed Cleveland. Kobe is Peter, Jordan's most trusted disciple.
Sunday, inside Staples Center, Kobe spread more of his false gospel. He dropped 33 points in a 93-83 victory over the visiting Heat. His congregation loved it. It was more proof that Kobe is unrivaled in this era, that James and Dwyane Wade are young stars with a long haul if they ever want to be in the same class as Kobe the Great.
"What I have left to accomplish, those players retired a long time ago," Bryant said Friday night. "At this point my rivals, in terms of what I have left to accomplish, (left the game) when Magic and Michael retired."
Yep. That's the delusion LeBron hate empowers.
Well, I don't hate LeBron or Kobe. I love basketball. I don't care if Kobe wins eight championships, he's not on the same level as Jordan, Magic, Bird or even the title-less King James. That's not hatred of Kobe or the Lakers. It's an objective statement of fact.
In baseball terms, Kobe Bryant was born on third base and we're allowing him to act like he hit a grand slam. There is no bigger competitive advantage in sports than playing for the Los Angeles Lakers. Because of the weather, the beach and the entertainment options, an indoor professional sports franchise operating in Los Angeles has no excuse to not stock its roster with the best talent money can buy. It's not a coincidence the Lakers have been home to Wilt, Kareem and Shaq.
While the Lakers have patiently waited for the opportunity to acquire Dwight Howard, Kobe has had to make do the past few years with two very good 7-footers, Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol, rather than a once-in-a-decade big man.
Playing alongside mammoth space-eaters, lane-cloggers and rim-defenders the overwhelming majority of his career has given Kobe the freedom to be a one-dimensional all-time great. Kobe is a scorer. Period. He can't touch Michael Jordan as a defender. Kobe is not in the same zip code as Magic and Bird as a creator and teammate-elevator.
When you compare Kobe's all-around game to the Lord, Savior and Holy Ghost, he's completely outclassed. Kobe is a scorer. Period. That's all he did Sunday. He put 33 points on Shane Battier, a terrific defender. Kobe had a great game. But he also did little else. He had three rebounds, one assist, zero steals or blocks.
Meanwhile, on a day the Heat played without Chris Bosh and on an afternoon when Wade was off his game and fouled out in 31 minutes, LeBron James played the entire 94 feet. He scored 25 points, grabbed 13 rebounds, passed out seven assists, nabbed three steals and blocked two shots.
Given Bosh's absence and Wade's miserable play, the Lakers should've won by 25. The Heat had no size and James had little help. He defended Gasol, holding him to 11 points. James single-handedly kept Miami in contention.
You put Bynum and Gasol around LeBron James and everyone in the league would expect that team to win a championship. Kobe wants the roster blown up. He's still upset David Stern stopped the Lakers from acquiring Chris Paul.
Bird, Jordan and Magic are among our top 10 players in NBA history.You give Wade the same rosters Kobe has played with throughout his Los Angeles career, and I guarantee you the Heat win the same number of titles — if not more. If you look at their career numbers, Wade is a better all-around player than Bryant. Wade bests Bryant in field-goal percentage, assists, steals and blocks and is in a virtual tie with Bryant in points per game (25.4 to 25.3) and rebounds (5.3 to 5.2).
Don't even waste your time comparing Kobe's averages to Jordan's, Bird's, Magic's and LeBron's. Kobe isn't on their level.
I don't hate Kobe Bryant. I love watching him play. He played a beautiful game Sunday. Kobe is the Jerry West of this era. But let's stop the blasphemy of elevating Bryant to the same level as the Holy Trinity. Don't let your hatred of LeBron convince you that Kobe is something he's clearly not.

Minimum wage hike urged for Los Angeles hotel workers
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Three Los Angeles City Council members have launched a bid to nearly double the minimum wage for hotel workers in the U.S.'s second-largest metropolis to $15.37 an hour, among the highest rates proposed for any of the country's private-sector workers.
The "living wage" proposal would apply to about 11,000 workers at hotels in Los Angeles with more than 100 rooms, helping to lift employees out of poverty and spur the city economy, supporters of the proposal said.
Lofty Los Angeles office tower launched with record concrete pour
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Construction workers in downtown Los Angeles finished laying the foundation on Sunday for a planned 73-story skyscraper expected to be the tallest west of the Mississippi River as they completed the world's largest continuous pour of concrete.
The 21,200 cubic yards of concrete weighing some 84 million pounds (38,200 metric tons) was hauled to the site by a fleet of over 200 trucks making a total of 2,120 trips in a continuous 19-hour operation ending at 11:30 a.m. on Sunday, said project spokesman Sean Rossall.
Comic great Sid Caesar of "Your Show of Shows' dies at 91
LOS ANGELES, Feb 12 (Reuters) – Sid Caesar, who pioneered TV
sketch comedy during the 1950s as the star and creative force of
"Your Show of Shows," a launch pad for the likes of Mel Brooks,
Carl Reiner and Woody Allen and an inspiration to generations of
comedians, died on Wednesday. He was 91.
Caesar, in failing health for at least a year, died at his
home in Beverly Hills, where he had continued to receive
visitors, reminisce and tell jokes, according to friends and
collaborators, including Reiner.
Comic legend Sid Caesar dead at age 91, says friend Carl Reiner
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Comic showman Sid Caesar, a pioneer of American television sketch comedy as the star and creative force of "Your Show of Shows" during the 1950s, died on Wednesday at age 91, according to his friend and former collaborator Carl Reiner.
Reiner told Reuters he learned of Caesar's death from a mutual friend, actor and writer Rudy De Luca, who had recently visited Caesar at his Los Angeles-area home. He said the veteran entertainer had been ill for at least a year.
Longtime NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw diagnosed with cancer
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Veteran news anchor Tom Brokaw, the face of "NBC Nightly News" for more than two decades, has been diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a cancer affecting blood cells in the bone marrow, but is hopeful about the outcome of his treatment, the network said on Tuesday.
Brokaw, 74, stepped down as anchor in December 2004 but has remained with the network as a special correspondent, currently covering the Winter Olympics coverage in Sochi, and has continued to work on NBC projects during his treatment, NBC News said in a statement.
Pacific storm eases California drought, but state has long way to go
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – The most powerful winter storm to hit California in more than a year dumped several feet of snow in the high Sierras and soaked lower elevations with rain over the weekend, easing drought conditions but leaving the state thirsting for more, officials said on Monday.
The Pacific storm doubled the moisture content of the snowpack in the Sierra Nevada mountain range, a key gauge of the state's principal source of surface water, said Dave Rizzardo, the chief of snow surveys for the state Department of Water Resources.
Woody Allen denies adopted daughter's renewed molestation accusations
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Film director Woody Allen defended himself on Friday from newly published accusations by his now-adult daughter that he molested her as a child, calling the allegations "ludicrous" and the product of a bitter custody battle with his former partner, actress Mia Farrow.
An advance copy of Allen's Op-Ed piece, to be published in the upcoming Sunday edition of the New York Times, was posted online five days after Dylan Farrow, 28, revived and elaborated on the decades-old accusation in her own words in an open letter on the Times' website.
Drought forces California farmers to idle cropland
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Drought-stricken California farmers facing drastic cutbacks in irrigation water are expected to idle some 500,000 acres of cropland this year in a record production loss that could cause billions of dollars in economic damage, industry officials said.
Large-scale crop losses in California, the No. 1 U.S. farm state producing half the nation's fruits and vegetables, would undoubtedly lead to higher consumer prices, especially for tree and vine produce grown only there. But experts say it is too soon to quantify the effect.
California wildlife officials seek cougar that mauled homeless man
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Wildlife rangers in Southern California were hunting on Monday for a mountain lion that mauled a homeless man at his roadside encampment over the weekend in a rare attack that left the victim in critical condition, fish and game authorities said.
The mauling of the 50-year-old man, believed to have occurred on Friday or Saturday in the Riverside County town of Perris, about 70 miles east of Los Angeles, marks only the 15th cougar attack on a person reported in California since 1986, the state's Department of Fish and Wildlife said.
Philip Seymour Hoffman death comes amid rise in heroin abuse, trafficking
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – The apparent heroin overdose death of actor Philip Seymour Hoffman comes amid a sharp rise in trafficking of the illegal narcotic across the U.S.-Mexico border in recent years and growing abuse of the drug nationwide, federal officials said on Monday.
The increasing levels of U.S. heroin use, which has reached epidemic proportions during the past five years, stems from a corresponding spike in abuse of prescription opiate-based painkillers, such as oxycodone, Drug Enforcement Administration officials said.

Has anyone had any successes with it? My latest attempt was to copy over my Gaim .xml's from another machine to avoid it crashing when I try to add a new account. Now it is telling me that it failed to get SSL handshake. If I have ssh packages installed on my Z, what step, if any, am I missing?

aluminum coolant tank?
So I finally bought ur p/s aluminum tank and its outstanding! The bummer icouldnt find the coolant tank to match on ur website. Is it discontinued? Did I miss out?
We used to offer a coolant tank, but it was rather expensive given it was made in Europe. We are looking at the possibility of making something in the United States for less.
And I hope you do. Cause I <3 CFM.
In the mean time... Top Speed makes an alum coolant tank for ~140 I think it is. |
how is the fluid level marked with the p/s tank?
Take the cap off and look inside? Lol im such an ass
I don't think there is anything. But TS is really good about custom orders if you want to throw some extra $$$$ at them, I'm sure they could put in a window or a gauge of some sort.
Yeah the bead rolls could be used as min and max.marks thanks for pointing that out. Sent from my DROIDX Using FF Mobile |
That thing is sweet but I can't see spending $150
On it when I got about 3 stock ones laying around Lol |
Plastic breaks and is ugly yellow lol. Im old school my fairlane has everything metal so if there is something better either steel or aluminum I will swap it out.

UNDP report calls for prudent management of extractive wealth to ensure improved human development
Wealth from extractive industries has the potential to more significantly boost the wellbeing of Papua New Guinea's citizens. Yet the country's development could be undermined if resources are not used in economically, socially and environmentally sustainable ways, says a new report by the UN Development Programme. The report points out that almost 40 per cent of the country's population continue to live on less than one dollar per day with inequalities on the rise, despite strong economic growth as a result of extractive industries such as oil, gas and mining. Over 25 per cent of children are not attending schools, and two out of three women and girls in the country experience gender-based violence. The 2013 Global Human Development Index ranked Papua New Guinea 156 out of 187 countries.

Partners for Prevention Phase II (P4P 2) – a UN regional joint programme – combines the strengths of UNDP, UNFPA, UN Women and UNV.

Hey teeray....do you think that the 323...and that is not all "assault" style rifle deaths, that is all rifle deaths, will go away with the banning of the "assault" style weapons?
Honest question, do you think that the number will decrease?
Do you know the difference between my AR 15 and the Winchester .308 hunting rifle that my father gave me is? Do you really think that I couldn't kill a person with either?
Fact is you don't know what you are talking about, very few do.
This is just a way to make people feel better, not actually stopping gun violence. We both know that.
It is a way to do things that are doable and needed. Unless you want an outright ban on all guns you aren't going to stop gun violence.
The issue is, what are these weapons purpose and why do they need to be in circulation.
You seem to think that status quo is acceptable because we can't stop it entirely. People also commit rape even though it is illegal. Should we just legalize it because we can't stop it completely??
Hand guns are the main culprit in gun deaths, but they are also popularly used for self protection. Hunting rifles are used for hunting.
Assault weapons are used for assaults and as toys. They have no other ideal functionality.
And I am sorry if you think I don't know what I am talking about. However, in response to your dismissive question it should be pointed out that an AR-15 is a type of rifle and the Winchester .308 is a type of ammunition.
Without you giving more information than "the rifle my dad gave me", or for that matter which type of AR-15 you are referring too, no one could tell you the difference.
I do have to say however, that it is not comforting that the people "in the know" don't know the difference between a type of cartridge and a type of rifle.

In Johto I was always either in the Battle Frontier or Pokéathlon. These two areas made the game amazing for me and I wasted soooo much time playing them both xD As for Sinnoh, I spent a lot of time in Eterna Forest and the area just outside it chaining for shinies (Buizel/Buneary) and I also spent a lot of time in the Snowpoint mountains because they were sooooo cool n.n I just loved that whole area, it made the game feel so much more complete x]
