Smart ForTwo aces Insurance Institute crash test W/Video
2008-05-14 19:02:00 One of the biggest questions to consider with tiny cars like the Smart ForTwo is what happens in a crash? The Smart is only eight and a half feet long. The first generation Smart has been tested numerous times over the years and always done reasonably well especially in comparison to other really small and even some considerably larger cars. When the feds tested it recently for the official test it did fairly well with scores of 4 and 3 stars for driver and passenger frontal protection. There was concern about the driver door opening during the test. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety does its own testing on cars and trucks with different tests from the government standard. IIHS does a 40mph offset frontal test as well as a 31mph side impact test and a 20 mph rear impact test. The Smart scored the maximum good rating on both the front and side tests and an acceptable on the rear impact test. Considering the almost complete absence of crush zones on the Smart, it's always am...
Smart ForTwo passes IIHS crash tests
2008-05-14 17:45:00 Smart ForTwo passes IIHS crash tests The hot-selling Smart ForTwo earned top ratings in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's front and side crash tests, with lower marks in rear crash tests. Despite its small size and 1,800lb curb weight, the Smart earned "impressive crash test ratings." In side-impact testing conducted by both the IIHS and NHTSA, the car's driver door unlatched, though the IIHS concluded this didn't appear to affect the test dummy, according to The Detroit News. In the side-impact test, the Smart received an Acceptable rating from the 31mph IIHS test and a five-star rating from the NHTSA. Traditionally, smaller, lighter vehicles that are far bigger than the sub-9-foot long Smart have a worse track record for occupant protection than larger vehicles, as they lack the structure to absorb impacts inflicted upon them by larger vehicles. "All things being equal, bigger and heavier is always better," said Adrian Lund, IIHS pre...

Used Auto Loans - Do Not Let A Smart Choice Turn Sour
2008-05-13 19:05:00 Used auto loans should not be dealt with lightly. Consider this- you've already made a smart money choice by deciding to buy a used vehicle instead of a new one. So why let all that go to waste by choosing a financing option that could end up costing you? Used But Not Old Many people still have a mindset regarding used cars- they believe that these are old vehicles that are almost falling apart. However, the truth is that, many used cars on the market are either hardly used or are in excellent condition. This can really work in your favor, because the resale value of a car is usually a lot less than its original price. With a little groundwork, you can find a great used car and it will cost you a lot less than a new one. What makes this proposition even better is the fact that you can finance the purchase of your used car with used auto loans. So far so good, right? But this is where you need to be extra careful. Before you opt for any kind of financing, it really pays to shop arou...

Smart People
2008-05-11 20:19:00 Smart People © Copyright 2008 Miramax Films Professor Lawrence Wetherhold (DENNIS QUAID) might be imperiously brilliant, monumentally self-possessed and an intellectual giant ? but when it comes to solving the conundrums of love and family, he?s as downright flummoxed as the next guy. His teenaged daughter (ELLEN PAGE) is an acid-tongued overachiever who follows all too closely in dad?s misery-loving footsteps, and his adopted, preposterously ne?er- do-well brother (THOMAS HADEN CHURCH) has perfected the art of freeloading. A widower who can?t seem to find passion in anything anymore, not even the Victorian Literature in which he?s an expert, it seems Lawrence is sleepwalking through a very stunted middle age. When his brother shows up unexpectedly for an extended stay at just about the same time as he accidentally encounters his former student Janet (SARAH JESSICA PARKER), the circumstances cause him to stir from his deep, deep freeze, with often comical, s...

Carb Cycling:The Smart Alternative To Low Carb Diets
2008-05-10 01:16:00 As a sports medicine nutritionist, I am concerned about the lack of awareness and confusion people have over the best way to lose weight. In the 1990?s, we were erroneously told that all fat was bad for us. Now, carbs are being blamed for America?s increasing waistline. Even some athletes have fallen into the low-carb trap. I urge you not to make this same mistake. If you want to lose weight, build muscle, have tons of energy, and even improve your skin and sex drive ? you need to eat carbs. It?s true ? carbs are good for you! You just need to know when and how to eat them.First, let?s dispel some myths about low carb diets like the Atkins diet. It is estimated that nearly 60 million Americans have tried to avoid carbohydrate-rich foods, such as bread, pasta and cereal. Even Burger King is cashing in on this trend by selling a bunless burger! Still, the average person?s weight in this country continues to increase.What is going wrong? Low-carb diets do not work long-term because the...

Smart, dead simple wine rack.
2008-05-08 16:20:00 Wine storage can become almost as complicated as space travel. We have some friends who put a lot of work into transforming a basement room into a wine cellar and bodega, complete with wine racks, furniture and lots of candles. Others have fancy wine fridges. Others still, and we find ourselves in this group, would be just fine with a kit like this. Two rubber or plastic wedges that let you stack the bottles on top of each other. It would probably work best if all the bottles are the same kind, so you won't have to rearrange them... It's GBP 4:95 (about USD 9:66) for two.

How 'smart growth' caused the housing bubble
2008-05-07 08:17:00 These policies, often referred to as "smart growth," create a scarcity of land, artificially raise the price of housing, and, again, have increased the exposure of the market to risky mortgage debt. When more liberal loan policies were implemented, metropolitan areas that had adopted these more restrictive policies lacked the resilient land markets that would have allowed the greater demand to be accommodated without inordinate increases in house prices.A few voices in the wilderness on both sides of the political spectrum have pointed to the role of excessive land use policies in driving up housing costs. For example: Liberal economist Paul Krugman of The New York Times put most of his conservative colleagues to shame in noting that the house price bubble has been limited to metropolitan areas with strong land use regulation. Conservative Thomas Sowell, no stranger to being a voice in the wilderness, has made similar points. More recently, Theo Eicher of ...
