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.

Free Statins With Fast Food Could Neutralize Heart Risk

study

    Statins reduce the      3      of unhealthy ”LDL” cholesterol3 in the blood. A wealth of trial data4 has proven them to be highly effective at lowering a person’s heart attack      4      .

    In a paper published in the American Journal of Cardiology5Dr Darrel Francis and colleagues calculate that the reduction in heart attack risk offered by a statin is       5       to offset the increase in heart attack risk from             a cheeseburger and drinking a milkshake

    Dr Francisfrom the National Heart and Lung Institute at Imperial College Londonwho is the senior author of the study, said:”Statins don’t cut out a11 of the       7      effects of cheeseburgers and French fries6It’s better to avoid fatty food altogetherBut we’ve worked out that in terms of your       8      of having a heart attack. Taking a statin can reduce your risk to more or less the same    9    as a fast food meal increases it.”  “It’s ironic that people are free to take as many unhealthv condiments in fast food outlets as they       10     , but statins, which are beneficial to heart health, have to be prescribed. It makes sense7 to make risk-reducing statins available just as easily as the unhealthy condiments that are   l 1    free of chargeIt would cost less than 5 pence per    1 2     not much different to a sachet of sugar8.” Dr Francis said

   When people engage in risky behaviours like driving or smoking, they’re encouraged to take     13     that lower their risk, 1ike    14     a seatbelt or choosing cigarettes with filters. Taking a statin is a rational way of     1 5     some of the risks of eating a fatty meal
