Car thefts account for a quarter of all recorded crime. Together they impose costs on everyone-the costs of the police time taken up in dealing with the offenses, the cost of taking offenders through the criminal justice system, and the cost to motorists of increased insurance premiums.
Over 460 000 cars are reported missing in this country each year and many of these are never recovered. Many of these which are found have been damaged by the thieves. A stolen car is also far more likely to be involved in an accident than the same car driven by its owner; car thieves are often young and sometimes drunk. Yet car crime can be cut drastically if motorists follow a few simple rules to keep thieves out of their in the first place.
Most car thieves are opportunist unskilled petty criminals; many are under 20. So ,make your own car a less inviting target, to discourage thieves from trying.

As more and more people lose their jobs, now is perhaps the time to consider the experience of unemployment. What are the first feelings? well, losing a job, or not being able to find one, almost always brings unwelcome changes. If you've lost a job, the first feeling is often one of shock. As well as the loss of income, many people find the whole routine of their life is shattered, their contact with other people reduced, their ambitions halted and their identity as a worker removed.
At first there may be good feeling too- a new and better job is just around corner-it's nice to be able to lie in the morning or spend more time with the children; have more time to think. But, unless a better job does turn up, the chances are the days start longer and time becomes harder to fill. Many people pass through periods of difficulty in sleeping and eating. They feel irritable and depressed, often isolated and lonely.
Despite all these problems though, unemployment can be a chances for a fresh start. You can discover that it provides an opportunity to sort out or rethink what you want from life and how best you can get it. You can use the time to plan how to find a new job, learn a new skill, develop your hobbies or see if you can run own business.
