Thoroughbred
Ferrari has just unveiled the latest model to join the illustrious Prancing Horse stable - the 458 Italia. The beautiful two-seater mid-rear engined Berlinetta was designed by Pininfarina with input in terms of performance and handling by Michael Schumacher himself. While the Ferrari California was created for owners requiring a more versatile sports car with a practical edge, the 458 Italia has been designed for owners whose priority is for uncompromising on-road performance with occasional track day capability, but who still demand a car that is useable for everyday driving.
Powered by a 4499cc V8, the first Ferrari direct-injection engine to be mid-rear mounted, the 458 Italia covers 0-62 mph in 3.4 seconds and its maximum speed is in excess of 200 mph. Despite the fact that the new engine is significantly more powerful than earlier V8s, the Ferrari 458 Italia produces 320 g/km of CO2.

HEALTH
When I was bringing up my kids, we worried about them getting accidental burns from fires, irons and pans of scalding liquid.
But now there's a new hazard - hair straighteners, which are a leading cause of under-fives being admitted to hospital with contact burns.
Perhaps Mum's in a hurry getting ready to go out. She leaves her straighteners on the side to cool , dashes out of the room and the toddler grabs hold of them.
However, many mothers don't seem to recognise the problem - a poll commissioned by the Child Accident Prevention Trust for this week's Bottega Veneta handbag Child Safety Week shows that only one in 15 mums regard straighteners as a hazard.
In reality, some can reach 220C, potentially burning your child's skin as badly as an iron.
Kids' skin is 15 times thinner than adults', so more damage is done in less time, increasing risk of scarring and skin grafts.
In children, the burn can reach their tendons within seconds, possibly resulting in their fingers being permanently curled over, a condition called contracture. Here's how to reduce the risk of burns...
6 ways to keep safe
(1) GET INTO GOOD HABITS - As soon as you've finished with your straighteners, always switch them off and unplug them. They stay hot enough to burn a child for eight minutes so put them out of reach MBT shoes - and remember, curious kids are apt to grab any wires hanging down. Apply the same rule to all hot appliances.
(2) TAKE CARE WITH HOT DRINKS - Remember hot drinks can scald a child up to 15 minutes after they've been made. Never hold a drink while you're also holding a child and avoid passing drinks over kids' heads. When you're not holding the drink, place it well out of reach on a high shelf or far back on a surface.
(3) BEWARE OF BARBECUES - keep kids well away from barbecues and have a hose or cold water and a first-aid kit handy.
(4) TAKE CARE ON THE STOVE - Turn pan handles inwards or use a cooker guard.
(5) STEAM can burn more than hot water so make sure boiling kettles are well back on work surfaces.
(6) DON'T LIGHT HOUSEHOLD CANDLES when kids are around.
If the worst happens...
Seek medical attention if the child has a minor burn bigger than a postage stamp, any severe burn or a burn to the mouth or throat. And never put butter on a burn!
In the meantime, cool the burned area under a tap or low- pressure shower for at least 10 minutes.
Don't place a child in a bath of cold water as they could get hypothermia. If they're five or over you could use frozen peas as an ice pack, binding it on with a crepe bandage.
Loosen clothing in case of swelling but never remove it if it's sticking to the burn.
Herve Leger DressOnce cooled, cover the burn with clean, non-fluffy material to protect it from infection - if you don't have bandages, a clean tea towel, freezer bag or clingfilm will do but discard the first piece of clingfilm, which may be contaminated.

In order to jazz up the Commonwealth Games theme song, Milkha Singh, Abhinav Bindra and Saina Nehwal were flown in from all over the country to shoot for the song in Mumbai last week.
They were made to run, jog and get into sporting action, under the direction of a team led by AR Rahman. Milkha Singh, who flew in from Chandigarh, was made to run with the flag.
Saina Nehwal's father, Best Women T shirts Online Dr Harvir Singh, told DNA that the shuttler was asked by the Games cultural committee to carry her track suit, badminton Replica Adidas Adicolor Series Shoes racket and kit for the video shoot in Mumbai.

City aiming for seventh heaven
BANGOR City have the magnificent seven in their sights when they play host to the last team to beat them at Farrar Road tomorrow (2.30pm).
Aberystwyth Town are the visitors to a ground where they finished 1-0 winners in a Welsh Premier League tussle in October 2009. The Citizens have since gone 18 competitive matches unbeaten on their own territory.
Neville Powell's side also hold an eight-point lead at the Super 12 summit, having won all six games so far to equal the club's best ever start to the WPL season.
While City suffered a rare loss in midweek, going down 3-2 at Prestatyn Town in a Loosemores Cup quarter final first leg encounter, manager Powell insists the squad is unaffected by the result.
Replica Zenith"We'll go into the Aberystwyth game full of confidence and looking to make it seven league wins on the bounce," he said.
replica Baume MercierBangor led twice at Bastion Road on Tuesday but ended up being sunk by a double from their former striker Lee Hunt.
However, Powell rested four regulars in Jamie Reed, Michael Johnston, James Brewerton and Alan Bull to give valuable game time to the likes of Les Davies, Sion Edwards and Eddie Jebb, who have spent long periods on the bench this term.
"I felt it was a good performance at Prestatyn considering the side we had out," said the Citizens boss.
"We left four regulars out and took three others off with 25 or so minutes to go. We also brought on John Owen, Tom Dix and Marc Limbert, who hasn't played this season, and it was good for Chris Roberts and Clive Williams to get 90 minutes, seeing as they weren't involved at Port Talbot on Saturday. "We got what we wanted out of the game as we gave players who needed minutes on the pitch a chance to play and were able to rest key players ahead of Sunday.
"The aim was to make sure the tie was still alive going back to Farrar Road and we achieved that. It's only half time and I believe we can turn it around at home."
Powell expects to have a full squad available to take on Aber who are managed by the Bangor manager's former assistant at Farrar Road, Alan Morgan.
"Alan will bring a team which will set its stall out to try to end our run," Powell predicted.
"But we're on fire at home and with a big crowd expected we've got to fancy ourselves to make it seven straight wins."
Fans should find it quicker and easier to get into the game because the club has installed an additional entrance to the ground via the cheap fake Bally Bags Replica Handbags old Wheels site on Sackville Road.
City chairman Dilwyn Jones said: "This should take pressure off the turnstiles at-Farrar Road. Supporters should use this new entrance if it is on their way to the ground."

Attack on builders - judge rej
A MAN attacked builders working in the shop under his flat after he warned them they were being too noisy.
William Walsh, 42, head-butted one of the workers and tried to assault two others in Cheltenham High Street, Gloucester Crown Court heard.
Walsh ended up with injuries himself after the workmen overpowered him with the help of a passing special constable, the court heard.
Having been found guilty by magistrates of assaulting Ebn Mars and common assault on two other men, Walsh appealed against his conviction and claimed he was the victim of violence, not them.
However, Judge John McNaught, sitting with two magistrates, rejected the appeal and upheld Walsh's conviction.
The replica hublot watches justices did not make any alteration to Walsh's punishment - a community order coupled with Pounds 100 compensation to Mr Mars.
And because of unemployed Walsh's difficult financial situation they did not order him to pay any of the costs of the appeal.
James Counsell, prosecuting, said two groups of builders were working in the High street near Walsh's flat on November 11 last year.
One group, working for Crown Clearance, were emptying the former Soundhouse shop below Walsh's home and were loading metal equipment into a van.
At 1.15pm, Walsh shouted from his window at Mr Mars, a Bristol University photography student who was working part-time for the fir m.
He complained about the noise, asking Mr Mars if he thought he was 'clever' to be causing it.
A few minutes later, Walsh shouted at another of the workers, Jeremy Pilcher, in the same way.
Walsh then left his flat, walked up to Mr Mars and "thrust his head towards his face, catching him in the mouth with a head-butt", Mr Counsell said.
"It was hard enough to send Mr Mars to the ground. Mr Mars went back into the shop Montega Fake and was followed by Walsh," the barrister said.
"Gordon Young, the owner of the company, told him to leave, but Walsh then attempted to head-butt Mr Pilcher, but missed. He picked up a broom and started to swing it at Mr Young, although there was no impact."
Mr Counsell said Mr Young grabbed hold of Walsh and together with the other workers and a passing special constable he was overpowered and arrested. "He was taken to the police station. He did have some injuries, but we say that was because he had to be restrained because of his behaviour."
Mr Mars told the court he was "shocked and disorientated" when Walsh head-butted him and suffered a cut and swollen lip and was bleeding.
Walsh, in evidence, claimed Mr Mars was abusive to him when he complained about the noise and kicked his dog.
It was the dog pulling on its lead that caused him to bump heads with Mr Mars, he said.
He claimed he was then dragged inside the shop and beaten up by the workmen.
But dismissing the appeal, the judge said although the workmen may have used "an jimmy choo Handbags unnecessary and improper amount of violence" at the end of the incident, the court was satisfied it was Walsh who started it.

Attack on pensioner is no refl
Let's hope somebody shops the hooded Taunton teenager who attacked 63-year-old pensioner Jenny Eggleton - all 5ft 2in of her - in broad daylight.
After knocking her to the ground, he grabbed her handbag containing bank cards, personal items and Pounds 70 in cash, and although she bravely held on to it watches d for some 10 yards, with grazed knees and bruised arms she eventually had to let go.
Jenny still had the guts to chase him until he disappeared.
The one shame is that none of the older local lads I know from the area were around to witness this cowardly attack, because if they'd caught him, I'm sure he would think twice about ever doing it again.
Although this type of incident shouldn't ever take place anywhere, it happily doesn't happen very often in Taunton or the other country towns of our region.
If you have any information about this attack, you can phone Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
I'm pleased to write of the happier side of Taunton life from The Wurzels' experience there last Wednesday, when we performed in what they say is the longest pub in England - the one that stretches from East Street through to Magdalene Street.
The place was packed with people of all ages creating an incredible atmosphere for us to work in, and with not a hint of trouble.
We chat to security staff wherever we play and they always tell us they do not have problems with our crowds, because they all come to have a good time.
And they really do come - from all over, and of all ages.
After the show on Wednesday we chatted to some of the 50 squaddies who had travelled down from Tidworth barracks for the evening.
They were all cracking lads, with some of them due to go off to Afghanistan soon. Come back safely, boys!
We also met a lovely couple who had had an absolute ball all evening. They had left home in Newcastle-upon-Tyne at 4am to come and see us, as they had never done so before.
We are so lucky to have fans like that.
The following day, when my wife Chris and I were in the supermarket, a lady much the same age as Jenny Eggleton came up, all excited, to say her son had bought her a ticket and she had had a brilliant night at our gig.
I don't know how she even managed to see us, because she must have been all of 5ft tall. But it was lovely to meet another satisfied customer who had had a safe night out in Taunton.
Finally, see you after the races at Bath Racecourse on Friday - all feeling flush louis vuitton Monogram Vernis after fleecing the bookies.

Police urge banks to adopt 'no
The man who whipped out a gun and held up Chase Bank in Troy earlier this month could have come out of Central Casting. He was wearing the bank robber's uniform: a billed cap and shades, as well as a moustache.
"If you see a guy (in a bank lobby) with a baseball cap, dark glasses and a moustache (or) beard, it's probably a bank robber, not a customer," said Lt. Larry Faulkner of the Dayton Police Department. Faulker said the disguise is so common, he advises tellers to call the police if they simply see a man dressed in that manner waiting in line.
Fendi Replica Handbags The FBI and police nationwide are advising banks to adopt a policy of "no hats, no hoods, no sunglasses, no cell phones" to head off robberies. More banks are doing so, but in some cases the idea is pitting police against bankers concerned about alienating law- abiding customers.
Bank robberies have declined over the years, said Special Agent Harry Trombitas of the FBI's Columbus office, but the numbers could be even lower if more banks had the "no hats" policy.
"I'm not aware of any bank or credit union who have gone to that who have been robbed," he said.
But Chase Bank spokeswoman Nancy Norris said Chase doesn't use the policy in any of its markets because "we think it is too difficult to apply fairly and without discrimination to all our customers." Some people may wear head coverings for religious reasons, or sunglasses because of a vision problem.
"We would like to reduce bank robberies, as well," Norris said. "I can say our people are well trained and observant in what's going on in a branch."
The no-hat policy strips would-be robbers of their disguises, making them more identifiable to witnesses and on securitycamera footage. Robbers use cell phones to cover their faces, to take photos to case the bank layout and to communicate with accomplices.
Trombitas said 90 percent of bank robbers use the hats/hoods/ sunglasses disguise. They like to blend in with other customers until they reach the teller window, where they display a robbery note or a gun.
"He knows we're going to get a great picture of his ball cap as he's waiting in line," Trombitas said.
The no-hat policy "forces them to make a decision," he said. If the robber complies, he becomes more identifiable. If he doesn't, "he's now the rule breaker. Everybody's looking at him, which is exactly what he doesn't want."
A number of local financial institutions, including Liberty Bank and Triangle Credit Union, have used the policy for a year or more. In recent weeks, National City Bank's area branches have adopted parent PNC's no-hat policy.
"We believe it makes good sense for our customers and our employees," said PNC spokesman Fred Solomon. "We recognize that not every customer who comes through the door with a hat or sunglasses on is Damier azur Replica a security threat. (But) it helps to discourage people who have intentions to rob the facility."
Fifth Third Bank has considered the policy, but hasn't implemented it. "The greatest challenge is how do you enforce that?" said spokeswoman Lea Ann Stevenson. "When Grandma comes in with sunglasses after her cataract surgery, do you make her take them off?" Also, bank officials worry about their employees confronting possible robbers to enforce the dress code, she said.
No hats doesn't guarantee

Police warning over valuables
GONE What people left in cars:
32 x handbags, backpacks, briefcases
25 x sunglasses
9 x iPods
8 x cellphones
Cincinnati-Reds8 x wallets z7 x cash
5 x GPS units
4 x laptops z2 x radar detectors
1 x digital camera
Car owners are not getting the message about crime and are asking for their vehicles to be broken into, New Plymouth police say.
Senior Sergeant Selwyn Wansbrough told the Taranaki Daily News small valuable items such as laptops, GPS units and radar detectors are popular targets for thieves and people needed to use common sense with their belongings.
"Take care, put away valuable items, lock them in your glovebox or boot," he said. "We keep repeating the same message but some people set themselves up to be victims."
juicy coutureLast year police recorded 517 thefts from vehicles in the New Plymouth area and only 45 of those cases were resolved.
A Taranaki Daily News spot check this week found a high number of motorists are still leaving valuables in plain sight.
Of more than 220 vehicles observed along Devon St and in the Centre City car park, 101 valuable items were left in full view of passers-by.
In most instances, the vehicles either had multiple items visible that would be of interest to thieves or nothing at all.
The most common items were handbags and backpacks (32), sunglasses (25), iPods (9) and cellphones (8).
They were usually located in the centre consol, on the passenger seat, or fixed to the inside of the windscreen. Of the reported thefts from cars in the New Plymouth area in 2009, more than 75 per cent of the incidents involved goods valued at less than $500.
New-style Christian Louboutin ShoesIn May, a New Plymouth man was given a 12-month prison sentence for stealing from 72 cars and properties to fund his drug habit.
