The National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) today warned drivers in the Las Vegas area to be on the lookout for criminals targeting trucks in a deliberate attempt to cause an accident for the purpose of collecting insurance money.
As many as 100 suspected staged accidents along the I-15 corridor through the metropolitan Las Vegas area have been reported to NICB in the past 12-18 months and as many as 25 of those accidents targeted big rig trucks. The NICB is working closely with its member companies, the Nevada Insurance Council, the Nevada Highway Patrol, and the Nevada Attorney General’s Office to track down the organizers behind these schemes.

Bentley hat das Topmodell Flying Spur neu aufgelegt. Die Wahrscheinlichkeit dass Ihnen dieses imposante Auto auf dem Weg zur Arbeit begegnet ist relativ gering, deshalb wollen wir die Gelegenheit nutzen, ihn einmal genauer unter die Lupe zu nehmen… und zu staunen… Zuerst einmal ist der Name neu. War sein Vorgänger noch ein Derivat der Continental-Baureihe, das lediglich den Namen „Flying Spur“ als Zusatz trug, hört die aktuelle Generation nur noch auf den Namen „New Flying Spur“. Britische Limousinen gelten seit den Anfängen des Automobilbaus als der Inbegriff von Luxus und Sportlichkeit. Dieser Erwartung fühlt sich auch der neue Bentley verpflichtet. Um es auf den Punkt zu bringen, die 5,30 Meter Limousine ist der stärkste und schnellste Serien-Bentley der je die Hallen verlassen hat. Aus seinem in W-Form angeordneten Zwölfzylinder holt er dank zweier Turbolader 625 PS heraus. Dank Allradantrieb kann der immerhin rund 2,5 Tonnen schwere Flying Spur in 4,6 Sekunden auf Tempo 100 sprinten, erst bei 322 km/h endet der Vortrieb.

Non-fiction / BiographyRead Dan Milstein’s new book detailing his story: 17 Cents and a Dream: My Incredible Journey from the U.S.S.R. to Living the American Dream. Mark Victor Hansen, Bestselling Author of ‘Chicken Soup for the Soul’ who wrote the foreword says this: “Through pure determination, fortitude and attitude, Daniel pulled out of impossibly difficult situations.

New research has revealed that the use of Antimicrobial Copper surfaces in hospital rooms can reduce the number of healthcare-acquired infections (HAIs) by 58% as compared to patients treated in Intensive Care Units with non-copper touch surfaces. In the United States, 1 out of every 20 hospital patients develops an HAI, resulting in an estimated 100,000 deaths per year. Although numerous strategies have been developed to decrease these infections, Antimicrobial Copper is the only strategy that works continuously, has been scientifically proven to be effective and doesn’t depend on human behavior, according to a recently published study in the SHEA Journal of Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology.

Während die Autoverkäufe in Europa unter diversen Krisen schwächeln, ist in China davon nichts zu merken. Die Absatzzahlen steigen seit Jahren stetig an. Darum ist die Shanghai Autoshow für die Hersteller auch eine der wichtigsten im Kalender. VW zeigt die innovative Studie CrossBlue Coupé. Ein 415 PS starkes SUV das von einem V6-Benziner und zwei Elektromotoren befeuert wird, aber nur drei Liter auf 100 Kilometer verbraucht. Mit dem neuen Rapid dürfte Skoda das richtige Auto für die Chinesen haben, die sich zum ersten Mal überhaupt ein Auto kaufen. Auch wenn das für uns kaum vorstellbar ist, gibt es davon im Reich der Mitte immer noch eine ganze Menge. Opel ist nach fünfjähriger Abstinenz wieder auf der wichtigsten Automesse Chinas und hat dazu drei neue Modelle, die im Laufe des Jahres dort auf den Markt kommen werden, mitgebracht. Die Autoshow in Shanghai zeigt, dass das Auto im boomenden China einen ganz hohen Stellenwert hat. Auch wenn inzwischen das Thema Umweltverträglichkeit wichtiger geworden ist, als noch vor einigen Jahren, ist es mehr als nur ein Transportmittel. Vielmehr ist das richtige Auto ein Accessoire um sein Image aufzupolieren und Eindruck zu machen. Und Europäische Autos werden deshalb auch zukünftig in der Käufergunst weiter vorne liegen.
