FEATURE - Neuer Bugatti Centodieci mit 1600 PS
Bugatti has paid homage to its one of its most popular cars from the 1990s with a run of 10 ‘one-off’ tributes.
The Centodieci, which was unveiled at Pebble Beach, California, is the most powerful Bugatti yet and boasts a whopping 1,600 horsepower.
But what makes it stand out the most is that its designers aimed to bring the classic EB110 into the modern era.
The EB110 is a mid-engine supercar that debuted in 1991. According to Top Gear, it was built in Mondena by Romano Artioli. Powered by a 550bhp, 3.5-litre quad-turbo V12, with a carbon fibre chassis, it was a vehicle ahead of its time.
The Centodieci, which means 110 in Italian, has been created to commemorate the 110th anniversary of the company’s founding.
While the latest masterpiece from the now VW-owned manufacturer is clearly based on a Chiron, it has intricate details that pay homage to the 90s. It’s got a low-dropping front just like the EB110 along with a deep-seated front spoiler.
The 8.0-litre W16 engine can accelerate from 0 to 62 miles per hour in 2.4 seconds and Bugatti says the car’s top speed has been limited to 236mph.
Bugatti head designer Achim Anscheidt said in a statement: "We faced a number of technical challenges in terms of the development and design of the Centodieci… The EB110 is a very flat, wedge-shaped and graphically quasi two-dimensional super sports car of the late 1980s. Transporting this classic look into the new millennium without copying it was technically complex, to say the least.'
"We had to create a new way of combining the complex aerothermal requirements of the underlying Chiron technology with a completely different aesthetic appearance."
Bugatti have reportedly sold all 10 models of the Centodieci priced at £9 million each.

FEATURE - Bentley feiert 100jähriges Bestehen mit einem Luxus-Golfset
Bentley are releasing 100 sets of luxury golf clubs to celebrate their 100th year of existence as a company.
Priced at £12,000 each, the Centenary collection take inspiration from the new Continental GT.
The details on the range of clubs reference Bentley’s distinctive diamond knurling, which adorns the club grips, and the iconic haunch exterior styling-line is outlined across the club heads.
Touches of Centenary Gold are tastefully utilised throughout the collection, mirroring the gold details that appear on every Bentley built during this very special year. These gold details have been meticulously woven into the products, creating eye-catching elements that will be sure to make a stylish statement on and off the golf course.
The high-performance clubs are crafted from carbon fibre, titanium and aluminium, while the bag and head covers are also made from real carbon fibre panels containing the same Centenary Gold detailing as the clubs. Paying tribute to the earlier years of Bentley, replicas of the unique wheel centre caps from the famous EXP Speed 8 winning Le Mans car decorate both the wood heads and grip end caps.
Irons:
Multi-material technology has been used in the development of the centenary edition irons, making them some of the most powerful and versatile ever made.
The titanium face, together with the carbon-fibre back, adds dampening and enables the weight to be positioned exactly where it is needed, providing unrivalled power and distance.
Wedges:
The collection comprises two wedges (52” and 58” loft), both of which have fully CNC milled faces with full face grooves and back cavities. Designed in a classic teardrop shape, each wedge has a versatile, rounded sole that can be used in the most difficult of terrain.
Woods:
Consisting of a driver, fairway, utility and hybrid, each wood featured the signature haunch line design from the Continental GT to the crown and sole, along with carefully positioned Bentley ‘B’ scr

Bentley are releasing 100 sets of luxury golf clubs to celebrate their 100th year of existence as a company.
Priced at £12,000 each, the Centenary collection take inspiration from the new Continental GT.
The details on the range of clubs reference Bentley’s distinctive diamond knurling, which adorns the club grips, and the iconic haunch exterior styling-line is outlined across the club heads.
Touches of Centenary Gold are tastefully utilised throughout the collection, mirroring the gold details that appear on every Bentley built during this very special year. These gold details have been meticulously woven into the products, creating eye-catching elements that will be sure to make a stylish statement on and off the golf course.
The high-performance clubs are crafted from carbon fibre, titanium and aluminium, while the bag and head covers are also made from real carbon fibre panels containing the same Centenary Gold detailing as the clubs. Paying tribute to the earlier years of Bentley, replicas of the unique wheel centre caps from the famous EXP Speed 8 winning Le Mans car decorate both the wood heads and grip end caps.
Irons:
Multi-material technology has been used in the development of the centenary edition irons, making them some of the most powerful and versatile ever made.
The titanium face, together with the carbon-fibre back, adds dampening and enables the weight to be positioned exactly where it is needed, providing unrivalled power and distance.
Wedges:
The collection comprises two wedges (52” and 58” loft), both of which have fully CNC milled faces with full face grooves and back cavities. Designed in a classic teardrop shape, each wedge has a versatile, rounded sole that can be used in the most difficult of terrain.
Woods:
Consisting of a driver, fairway, utility and hybrid, each wood featured the signature haunch line design from the Continental GT to the crown and sole, along with carefully positioned Bentley ‘B’ scr

FEATURE - Kamera für den Hund
Have you ever wondered how your dog spends his or her day when you're not around? Well now you can take a look (if you dare).
PetNow is the world’s first wearable high definition camera for dogs giving owner's the opportunity to capture a first-person perspective of their mutt’s life and activities when they are home alone.
PetNow consists of three parts: a "soft, lightweight, breathable" harness, a Wi-Fi-connected HD video camera that quick-mounts onto that harness, and an iOS/Android app.
Utilising the app, users can view the camera's live-streamed 1080p/30fps video at any time, wherever there's internet access. They can also talk to their pet via a two-way audio system.
Additionally, if the animal wanders into an unlit part of the house at night, the camera's night vision system will still show what's going on.
Should users wish to record and then share any of the video (or take still photos), they can do so via the app. And if they want to instead go for a more traditional dog-monitoring setup, in which a stationary camera watches over one room, the camera can simply be removed from the harness and set in an included base.
PetNow is currently the subject of a Kickstarter campaign. If it reaches production, a pledge of US$79 will get you a system, with your choice of five harness sizes. The planned retail price is $169.

FEATURE - Seltene Raupen im Britischen Zoo
More than 150 rare caterpillars which have hatched at Chester Zoo are now destined for release into the wild in Manchester and Cheshire, where they have been extinct for a century.
The Chester Zoo butterfly team is working to raise the caterpillars to help prevent their extinction, in partnership with the Lancashire Wildlife Trust.
Each member of the army of freshly hatched “large heath” caterpillars is currently only a couple of millimetres long.
Conservationists at the zoo have been using fine art paintbrushes to move the miniscule species into their specially designed habitats at the zoo.
The paintbrushes allow the zoo’s invertebrate keepers to be precise and delicate when handling the precious insects.
After plenty of eating and growth, the tiny youngsters will hibernate over the winter and pupate next year, emerging in the summer as large heath butterflies.
These adults will be the first to return to areas that their species once called home – the Astley Moss of Manchester and the Risley Moss at Warrington.
Large heath butterflies were once common across the British Isles but over the last 200 years, they have been pushed further and further north. Large colonies previously at home in the boggy mosses of Manchester and Liverpool have long since been lost to local extinction.
As the UK has built its agriculture over the last two centuries, the wet mosslands that the large heath needs to survive have been drained and converted into farmland. As the land dried, the food plants for the butterfly were lost, resulting in a cascade of wildlife disappearance.
The butterfly can be identified by their orange wings, each bearing six black and white ‘eyespots’ on the underside. Conservationists hope to ensure that they will one day be a common sight across the UK once again.

Large heath butterflies were once common across the British Isles but over the last 200 years, they have been pushed further and further north. Large colonies previously at home in the boggy mosses of Manchester and Liverpool have long since been lost to local extinction.
As the UK has built its agriculture over the last two centuries, the wet mosslands that the large heath needs to survive have been drained and converted into farmland. As the land dried, the food plants for the butterfly were lost, resulting in a cascade of wildlife disappearance.
The butterfly can be identified by their orange wings, each bearing six black and white ‘eyespots’ on the underside. Conservationists hope to ensure that they will one day be a common sight across the UK once again.

More than 150 rare caterpillars which have hatched at Chester Zoo are now destined for release into the wild in Manchester and Cheshire, where they have been extinct for a century.
The Chester Zoo butterfly team is working to raise the caterpillars to help prevent their extinction, in partnership with the Lancashire Wildlife Trust.
Each member of the army of freshly hatched “large heath” caterpillars is currently only a couple of millimetres long.
Conservationists at the zoo have been using fine art paintbrushes to move the miniscule species into their specially designed habitats at the zoo.
The paintbrushes allow the zoo’s invertebrate keepers to be precise and delicate when handling the precious insects.

A tiny trio of rock hyrax pups have been born at Chester Zoo.
The triplets – a male and two females – arrived to mum, Daissie, and dad, Nungu.
While the mini mammals may be small and furry in appearance, each weighing no more than a banana (250 grams), they are in fact the world’s most closely related animal to the elephant – with the two species sharing a surprising genetic link.
Similar to an elephant, the rock hyrax has two large incisor teeth which constantly grow like tiny tusks, while its skull structure and shape of its feet is also just like its elephant ancestor.
While small mammals typically experience a short gestation period, rock hyrax pregnancies last for more than seven months. And when pups are born they look like miniature adults – born with their eyes and ears open and with the same furry coat.
Very aptly named, the rock hyrax lives in rocky terrain and is be found in colonies of between two and 26 individuals across Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.
They are sometimes referred to as ‘rock rabbits’ and conservation scientists believe they have their own language; communicating through 20 different sounds where specific tones convey different meanings.
The rock hyrax has long been the subject of scientific study, with the species helping researchers to learn more about how various animals can evolve and adapt to the environments where they live.

Everyone knows about Ferrari’s legendary success on the racetrack but what about on the water? Back in the 1950s the Italian automaker helped power a hydroplane that was built with one goal in mind: setting the world speed record on water. And now that same boat, the only Ferrari-powered boat in the world, is up for sale.
Italian speedboat racer Achille Castoldi was determined to break the world record for racing the fastest boat, and so he turned to none other than Enzo Ferrari himself. Agreeing to help him, Enzo and Castoldi built what became the only Ferrari-powered boat ever made.
Built for the 800kg class, the speedboat’s upper body is painted in Ferrari’s signature red colour, paired with a three-point hydroplane constructed from hardwood with a luxurious mahogany veneer finish.
Most impressive is the engine that powers the boat: a modified Grand Prix 4.5L V12 pushing out more than 550 horsepower, allowing the Arno XI to reach a top speed of 150.49 mph on water, a record speed that still has yet to be broken.
For vintage collectors or Ferrari enthusiasts, the 1952 Ferrari Arno XI is now up for sale at duPont Registry, with the price available upon request.
According to duPont, the boat has been “completely restored” through Ferrari’s classic car department, Ferrari Classiche.
The boat comes with a well-documented history file that includes hundreds of period photographs and handwritten notes from Ferrari’s engineers. A copy of the U.I.M. record certification that attests to Achille Castoldi’s 1953 speed record is also included.

The boat comes with a well-documented history file that includes hundreds of period photographs and handwritten notes from Ferrari’s engineers. A copy of the U.I.M. record certification that attests to Achille Castoldi’s 1953 speed record is also included.
