Benefits of Black Boxes in Motor Cars

When you hear the phrase black box, you may think of an aircraft accident investigation. But the benefit of retrieving data from a flight data recorder in the Black Box is not limited to airlines. You can now find this technology in cars, where it helps to determine what happened in the critical moments before a crash. Furthermore it is also able to keep a running record of how a car is being operated, including speed, acceleration, breaking, steering and checking to see if you use your seat belt! A recent report by the BBC in the UK suggests that the installation of black boxes in the cars of young people is growing.

Originally the black box for cars was installed by car manufatcurers to monitor air bag activity. Studies have shown that drivers under the age of 25 are involved in 40% of accidents, but they make up just 10% of motorists. It appears that the black box could be a good tool to monitor and control their driving style. Also for parents, who worry that their child is driving carefully, they would derive comfort from the black box because the technology will present them with the cold hard facts about their children’s driving.

This new technology could be of interest for insurance companies, because it provides them with all necessary information about the driving styles of their customers. Theoretically, those that drive safely are less likely to have an accident and could therefore have their premiums reduced.

The black box for the car would be of special interest for car rental companies. When a car is returned back to the rental company, any disputes about vehicle damage can be easily resolved by looking at the data from the black box. The subversive practice of car rental companies charging multiple customers for the same damage will be eliminated. Driveaway Holidays receives numerous complaints from their customers

There is no question that a black box in a car will benefit car rental companies, consumers and the car insurance companies, but more importantly, it will reduce the number of accidents by improving the driving attitude of the general public

Hillbilly Deluxe $7 With Red Dirt Road, Ronnie Dunn and Kix Brooks began a soul search that saw them strip away much of their bulked-up honky tonk in the name of a more organic kind of country. Not the archaic Smithsonian-type, per se, but something that rocked harder and dug deeper into what the music meant to them as men, musicians and writers. It was the beginning of a journey that would bring them to Hillbilly Deluxe, a potent cocktail that merges the influences, moments and reasons for kicking up a cloud of dust in a beer joint in the first place — and in these 13 songs, the pair offer up a collection of songs that run the gamut and hit the mark of what lights up the night and saves the morning after every time.Rowdy. Bawdy. Raucous. Revel-ready. Hillbilly Deluxe is music for late nights, juke boxes, car radios and anywhere that people jettison expectation in the name of high-timin’ and good-livin’. Hillbilly Deluxe is a state of mind and a frame of reference that’s about scraping back the high tech, drop and rolling into the arc of Saturday night and the occasional pounding in one’s head on the way to church on Sunday morning.

Illinois from A to Z $24.95 Learning about Illinois history is as easy as ABC with this lively, attractive, alphabetical tour of the state.Pairing brief, informative statements with photographs and drawings of their subjects, Illinois from A to Z includes profiles of important Illinois residents, from inventor John Deere to scientist Enrico Fermi and from poet Gwendolyn Brooks to entrepreneur Ray Kroc. Betty Carlson Kay highlights historical events, such as the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition and the tragic Haymarket Riot of 1886. She introduces the Illiniwek tribe, for whom the state was named, and the canals and waterways that connect the Chicago and Mississippi Rivers with Lake Michigan. She also describes key social projects, such as Jane Addams’s Hull-House and the orphan trains that carried tens of thousands of poor, homeless children from the East Coast to new homes in the Midwest.Readers will learn that Illinois was the first state east of the Mississippi to grant women the right to vote for the president and local officials (although they had to use separate ballots and ballot boxes); that each car of the original Ferris wheel could hold sixty people; and that the epithet The Windy City originally referred not to the weather but to the boasting of Chicagoans about the 1893 world’s fair.Clearly written and generously illustrated, Illinois from A to Z is a charming introduction to the movers and shakers who have shaped Illinois as well as to the state’s history and geography.

Infinity BASSLINK II Powered Subwoofer 250W (RMS) $274.14 If you crave high-performance bass but don’t have a lot of space, Infinity has a great solution the BassLink II car subwoofer. The engineers at Infinity used state-of-the-art technology to create this compact, powerful, and expandable amplified sub. Though it takes up just one cubic foot of trunk space, it’ll produce resounding bass in any vehicle. The BassLink II brings together a 10 square subwoofer and a specially designed 250-watt amplifier, and then adds a 10 square passive radiator (non-powered speaker) to increase efficiency. This inventive combination provides loud, clear bass in a fraction of the space taken up by conventional sub boxes. An array of controls lets you tweak your bass for the kind of thump you want. The low-pass filter adjusts the range of frequencies amplified by the BassLink II, while a phase control ensures that the sub works with the speakers in your car, not against them.

Mounting brackets allow you to install the rigid polymer box vertically or horizontally, so you’ll be able to fit this compact enclosure almost anywhere.

Kisan PathBlazer P115W Headlight Modulator $98.95 BE SEEN! If you’re not seen by others around you, you’re in trouble. Most Drivers don’t expect to see anything smaller than a car. They may be looking right at you, but a small motorcycle just won’t register. With so many automobiles equipped with Daytime Running Lights (DRL) on the road, motorcycles have a hard time standing out. PathBlazer headlight modulator makes a motorcycle 200% more visible. P115W unit is designed for 3-pin H4 or a Japanese H7 2-pin style headlights. It’s 1.25 (32mm) round, and requires only 0.4 (10mm) of additional room after it’s plugged on the back of the bulb. P115W unit is totally self-contained. There are no hidden boxes or switches. There are no wires to cut or splice. Some motorcycles have very little room aft of the bulb socket. Use the S series PathBlazer for such applications. PathBlazer circuit modulates the hi-beam current – from 100% ON to about 17% OFF. This is accomplished by using a p-channel MOSFET, which is inherently safe. The MOSFET is designed to fail in the ON state. For additional safety, the circuit DOES NOT utilize the lo-beam whatsoever! MAX power rating is 115 watts. P115W comes with a detachable daylight sensor, which simply plugs into the PathBlazer. The daylight sensor functions as a switch; it stops modulation when it cannot see enough daylight. Since the internal circuitry is controlled by a microprocessor, which allows for customizable features. Programmable Daylight Sensor If you turn the high beam on and then turn the ignition on three times quickly, the sequence is interpreted as an active command to change the sensitivity. The daylight sensor has a low frequency filter to avoid false triggering. Please note that florescent lamps may not trigger the sensor – it needs constant incandescent light. PathBlazer uses a soft-switching technique. It throttles the current flow through the bulb filament, so that there’s no thermal shock due to a sudden inrush of current.

Long Past Stopping $1.99 It looked like any other medical chart, with different boxes filled in with my blood pressure and heart rate, but at the bottom, next to Diagnosis, the doctor simply wrote, Terminal Assholism. Juggled between an endless succession of friends, relatives, anarchist boarding schools, libertarian commune dwellers, socialist rebels, and born-again circus clowns, Oran Canfield grew up viewing the inconsistencies of the world with a wary eye. The son of Jack Canfield—the motivational speaker and creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul—Oran is intensely self-conscious and reserved, but his life won’t seem to leave him alone. Whether he’s teaching two hundred eager self-help disciples to juggle (among them a woman with stumps for hands), dodging a series of wacky near-death experiences, delivering newspapers in satin pants on a unicycle, or experimenting with drugs in the back of a Mexican cop car at age thirteen, one thing’s for sure: Oran’s life is much stranger than fiction. Eventually he finds some fleeting comfort in heroin, but the world proves dizzying whether he’s stoned or sober. Playing drums in fringe bands and bouncing between rehab centers, he encounters a host of weird characters along the way: a devotee of obscure noise music who makes his own sunglasses out of cardboard, hooligan hockey players left in charge of group therapy, and the unassuming chess nerd who might be in the mob. Feeding a dope addiction that becomes more harrowing by the day, Oran sells off every possession and burns every bridge on the road to recovery. With humor and wit, Long Past Stopping grapples with the paradoxes of a mad world and shows that feel-good nostrums go only so far. Sometimes the only way out is the hard one.

No Mercy $19.71 Novelist Grace Morgen must decide if her vigilante quest to stop animal abusers is getting out of control. Desperate to put an end to the pitiful sounds of the helpless animals she hears in her head, Grace is getting more emotionally unstable. Her Christianity is in conflict with the revenge she takes, but she feels this is the only justice the abusers are going to receive. Jack Adams, who owns a private investigation company, is a friend of Grace who helps her to get the abusers. In the beginning, he helped only when she got in too deep but now he does it to be close to her. The most recent case they are working on is about a particularly violent abuser, Michael Jacobs. He tortured and killed his girlfriend’s little dog Pepper. He spent a year in jail for that crime but Grace doesn’t believe it was adequate punishment. Grace lives in an old asylum she bought and fixed up in which there is a treatment room in the basement that is used to punish the abuser; to do to them what they did to their victims. They also tattoo their crime on their forehead. After Grace’s mother died, she found two boxes of notes her father had made before he died 17 years ago in a car accident. Now Grace thinks his death may not have been an accident. With the help of a reporter, a cop, and a tattooist, Grace and her friends try to put the pieces and scraps of information her father left to take down a Nazi scientist, a gunrunner and his psycho girlfriend whose dad is a hit-man.

Seventeen Again $9.99 True love and family ties are tested, then brought to a rapid boil, in this heart-warming tale of the Donovan family, who uproots from Los Angeles and moves to Connecticut. Seventeen-year old Sydney (Sister, Sister star Tia Mowry), misses her old home, but her brother, twelve-year old Willie (Tahj Mowry), is happy anywhere, as long as he has his laboratory accessible to him. He is working on an experiment to perfect an anti-aging formula when he inadvertently starts a fire. Because of this mishap, his agitated father bans him from the lab and orders him to help the family unpack boxes from their move. In one of the boxes is a bar of soap that has been contaminated by a tiny drop of experimental formula. Unaware of the contaminated soap, Willie innocently places it beside the bathtub. As fate would have it, it is Willie’s grandparents who are staying with them that end up bathing with the soap. His grandparents divorced many years ago, but adore their family so they agree to spend this quality time with their beloved grandchildren. His grandmother, Catherine Cat , ends up looking just like her granddaughter, Sydney. While his grandfather, Gene’s transformation happens behind the wheel of his son’s car. Soon both grandparents start to discover what it means being young again–and to have a second chance to get things right. Meanwhile, in his lab, Willie discovers that his grandparents are in danger–his formula could prove deadly. As Willie frantically works on an antidote, Sydney keeps an eye on Cat and Gene. The true test of love is time, and time is running out in this timeless testimony to the ageless determination of the power of love.

Sleep in Heavenly Peace: The Worst Crime a Mother Can Commit $38.68 Cold Storage In May 2003, an Arizona man who’d bought dozens of sealed boxes at an auction of unclaimed property made a horrifying discovery: the bodies of three plastic-wrapped infants, one of which had become mummified over the years. Police traced them to Dianne Odell, 50, a mother of eight children, who admitted the babies were hers but claimed that they’d died of natural causes. Justice Deferred In 1989, police had found the remains of a long-dead infant in a suitcase in the trunk of a car Odell had abandoned. The statute of limitations on manslaughter had saved her then from prosecution. She maintained that the fetus was the product of a rape by her father, and stillborn.Baby-Killer’s Fate Odell said her own domineering mother had forced her into teen prostitution and murdered what she viewed as “bastard children.” Both parents were dead and unable to contradict her. Would Odell’s stories sway the jury and buy her the mercy her babies were never granted? Or would she be forced to face the consequences of bringing innocent lives into the world – only to end them in cold blood…

Slim’s Table: Race, Respectability, and Masculinity $25.33 At the Valois See Your Food cafeteria on Chicago’s South Side, black and white men gather around formica tables finding companionship over hot coffee and steam-table food. Mitchell Duneier spent four years at Valois writing this moving profile of the black men who congregate at Slim’s table . They take center stage in stories that illuminate a new image of black masculinity and respectability. Duneier introduces us to Slim, a car mechanic living in the ghetto, who shows his concern for Bart, a prejudiced white senior citizen. In this story of black masculinity and the possibilities of racial integration, Slim treats Bart with care and affection, which moves the old man to the limits of his own potential for tolerance and respect. We meet at Valois a group of men who are firm, resolute, sincere, and sensitive. There is Ted, retired from the army and working in a photo lab, whose pronouncements about American society and politics illustrate the standard of respectability in black America. And Jackson, a semi-retired crane operator and longshoreman who lives in a ramshackle apartment without a telephone. In his old age, he struggles lifting boxes at the docks to pay off overwhelming medical bills. Slim’s Table helps demolish the narrow sociological picture of black men and the simple, media-reinforced stereotypes which restrict blacks to one of two groups – the ghetto underclass and the so-called middle-class role models. In between is a respectable citizenry, too often ignored and little understood. Duneier demonstrates that a proper understanding of the men at Slim’s table calls into question fundamental assumptions that have long dominated discussions of urban poverty. This leadshim to fashion a new way of looking at role models and at the exodus of the black middle class from the inner city. In a pioneering, revisionist analysis of many classic works in black studies, he also argues that some of the most enlightened books ultimately confirm the basest stereo

Stain-Resistant, Nonstick, Waterproof, and Lethal $20.78 It’s everywhere. It’s toxic. And it lasts forever. Asbestos? Nuclear waste? No. This statement, made by the Environmental Protection Agency in 2003, refers to a little-known but ubiquitous chemical compound whose trade name is C8. Manufactured by DuPont, it is used in the making of a plethora of stain-resistant consumer products, including microwave popcorn bags, food packaging, nail polish, car finishes, pizza boxes, and many other common items. Recently named a likely carcinogen by the EPA, C8 has been linked to cancer, reproductive disorders, birth defects, and respiratory problems. The first members of the public to hear about C8, in 2002, were the residents of the Mid-Ohio Valley, whose water supplies were found to contain detectable amounts as the result of emissions from the DuPont Washington Works Plant near Parkersburg, West Virginia. As a result, in 2003 the EPA announced it was launching a multi-agency review of the manmade chemical, which became the largest investigation of its kind. The EPA was concerned because early tests indicated that C8 could already–and unexpectedly–be found in the blood of 96 percent of Americans. In 2005 DuPont settled a class action lawsuit with Valley water consumers for more than $200 million, and the EPA has called for a global phase-out of C8 involving eight companies. As a local journalist, Lyons has covered the C8 issue from the beginning. Here she tells the story of how the danger of C8 first came to light when a West Virginia family lost an entire herd of 280 cattle to a mysterious wasting disease within a mere decade, following forty years of successful farming. The die-off began in the mid-1980s, after the family sold some land toDuPont. The chemical company used the property as a landfill, dumping C8, which made its way into the public water supply. By the time the EPA investigated the situation, the same substance detected in the water in West Virginia and Ohio–which has by now spread to a total of twelve sta

The Passenger Pigeon (1907) $30.19 William Butts Mershon (1848-1943) of Saginaw, Michigan, was a multi-faceted person who involved himself in industry, politics, lumbering and mining enterprises, and serving as mayor of Saginaw. He was also noted as a sportsman, conservationist, and author of sporting books, popular magazine articles, and scientific ornithological contributions, particularly to The Auk, the prestigious journal of the American Ornithological Union. In 1866, he first became active in the business of lumber milling and manufacturing of knock-down wooden shipping boxes so essential then. He also founded William B. Mershon and Company that manufactured band-saw blades for logging and lumber milling. Also, he served as president of the Saginaw & Manistee Lumber Company, headquartered in Williams, Arizona. Wealth and time enabled him to serve various city and state posts, and to participate in and at times lead the early Michigan conservation movement. Mershon lobbied for bills relating to fish and game protection before the Legislature of Michigan, especially in 1911 on behalf of the Michigan Association for the Protection and Propagation of Fish and Game. He has the unusual distinction of having a trout fishing fly named for him.Mershon was an avid hunter and he made annual trips to North Dakota, near Dawson, and later to Saskatchewan. To facilitate these distant hunting excursions for himself and friends, he purchased and remodeled a railroad passenger car and named it the City of Saginaw.–Henry M. Reeves.
