Car Thieves Could Be Stopped Remotely
Speeding off1 in a stolen car, the thief thinks he has got a great catch2. But he is in a nasty surprise3. The car is fitted with a remote immobilizer, and a radio signal from a control center miles away will ensure that once the thief switches the engine 1 , he will not be able to start it again.
For now, such devices 2 only available for fleets of trucks4 and specialist vehicles used on construction sites. But remote immobilization technology could soon start to trickle down to ordinary cars5, and 3 be available to ordinary cars in the UK 4 two months.
The idea goes like this. A control box fitted to the car incorporates6 5 miniature cellphone, a microprocessor and memory, and a GPS7 satellite positioning receiver. 6 the car is stolen, a coded cellphone signal will tell the unit to block the vehicle’s engine management system and prevent the engine 7 restarted.
There are even plans for immobilizers 8 shut down vehicles on the moves8, though there are fears over the safety implications of such a system.
In the UK, an array of9 technical fixes10 is already making 9 harder for car thieves. “The pattern of vehicles crime has changed.” says Martyn Randall of Thatcham, a security research organization based in Berkshire11 that is funded in part 10 the motor insurance industry.
He says it would only take him a few minutes to 11 a novice how to steal a car, using a bare minimum of tools12. But only if the car is more than 10 years old.
Modern cars are a far tougher proposition13, as their engine management computer will not
12 them to start unless they receive a unique ID code beamed out14 by the ignition key. In the UK, technologies like this 13 achieve a 31 per cent drop in vehicle-related crime15 since 1997.
But determined criminals are still managing to find other ways to steal cars. Often by getting hold of the owner’s keys in a burglary. In 2000, 12 per cent of vehicles stolen in the UK were taken by using the owner’s keys, which doubles the previous year’s figure.
Remote-controlled immobilization system would 14 a major new obstacle in the criminal’s way by making such thefts pointless. A group that includes Thatcham, the police, insurance companies and security technology firms have developed standards for a system that could go on the market sooner than the 15 expects.

Wonder Webs
Spider webs are more than homes, and they are ingenious traps. And the world’s best web spinner may be the Golden Orb Weaver spider. The female Orb Weaver spins a web of fibers thin enough to be invisible to insect prey, yet 1 enough to snare a flying bird without breaking.
The secret of the web’s strength? A type of super-resilient 2 called dragline. When the female spider is ready to 3 the web’s spokes and frame, she uses her legs to draw the airy thread out through a hollow nozzle in her belly. Dragline is not sticky, so the spider can race back and forth along 4 to spin the web’s trademark spiral.
Unlike some spiders that weave a new web every day, a Golden Orb Weaver 5 her handiwork until it falls apart, sometimes not for two years1. The silky thread is five times stronger than steel by weight and absorbs the force of an impact three times better than Kevlar, a high-strength human-made 6 used in bullet-proof vests. And thanks to its high tensile strength, or the ability to resist breaking under the pulling force called tension, a single strand can stretch up to 40 percent longer than its original 7 and snap back as well as new. No human-made fiber even comes
8 .
It is no 9 manufacturers are clamoring for spider silk. In the consumer pipeline: high-performance fabrics for athletes and stockings that never run2. Think parachute cords and suspension bridge cables. A steady 10 of spider silk would be worth billions of dollars — but how to produce it？ Harvesting silk on spider farms does not 11 because the territorial arthropods have a tendency to devour their neighhors.
Now, scientists at the biotechnology company Nexia are spinning artificial silk modeled after Golden Orb dragline. The 12 step: extract silk-making genes from the spiders. Next, implant the genes into goat egg cells. The nanny goats that grow from the eggs secrete dragline silk proteins in their 13 . “The young goats pass on the silk-making gene without 14 help from us,” says Nexia president Jeffry Turner. Nexia is still perfecting the spinning process, but they hope artificial spider silk will soon be snagging customers 15 the real thing snags bugs.

Men Too May Suffer from Domestic Violence
Nearly three in 10 men have experienced violence at the hands of1 an intimate partner during their lifetimes, according to one of the few studies to look 1 domestic violence and health among men.
“Many men actually do experience domestic violence, although we don’t hear about it 2 ,” Dr. Robert J. Reid of the University of Washington in Seattle , one of the study"s authors ，told Reuters Health. “ They often don"t tell 3 we don"t ask. We want to get the message out2 to men who 4 experience domestic violence that they are not alone and there are resources available to 5 .”
The researchers asked study participants about physical abuse and non-physical 6 , such as threats that made them 7 for3 their safety, controlling behavior (for example, being told who they could associate with and where they could go)，and constant name-calling.
Among men 18 to 54 years old, 14.2 percent said they had experienced intimate partner 8 in the past five years, while 6.1 percent reported domestic violence in the previous year.
Rates were lower for men 55 and 9 ，with 5.3 percent reporting violence in the past five years and 2.4 percent having experienced it in the past 12 months.
Overall, 30.5 percent of men younger than 55 and 26.5 percent of older men said they had been victims of 10 violence at some point in their lives. About half of the violence the men 11 was physical.
However, the physical violence men reported wasn’t as harsh as 12 suffered by women in a previous study；20 percent to 40 percent of the men rated it as severe, compared to 61 percent of 13
Men who reported experiencing domestic violence had more emotional and mental health problems 14 those who had not, especially older men, the 15 found.

Moreover, nearly three quarters of the residents said they had witnessed mistreatment of patients by other residents, attending physicians1, or nurses. Almost 40% said patient mistreatment was a frequent 7 .
More than 10% of the residents said they were 8 to have enough sleep, and the average number of hours 9 sleep was 37.6. The average on-call hours during a 10 week was 56.9 hours, but about 25% of the residents said their on-call assignments were more than 80 hours some weeks.
11 30% of the residents said they experienced some type of sexual harassment or discrimination, verbal abuse was the most common problem cited. When abusive incidents were limited to events occurring three or more times, 53% of the respondents reported that they 12 belittled or humiliated by more senior residents, while just over 21% reported someone taking credit for their work. Being “ 13 tasks for2 punishment,” “being pushed, kicked or hit,” and
14 someone “threatening your reputation or career,” were reported as a more 15 occurrence by over 10% of the responding residents.
