Hello, Newsrounders! I'm Hayley, and here's what's coming up: The

:00:08.:00:12.

new plan to put a stop to stray dogs on our streets, and the

:00:12.:00:15.

holiday surprise you'd never forget. First, if you've got a dog and it

:00:16.:00:23.

goes missing, you know how upsetting it is. But did you know

:00:23.:00:27.

that more than 100,000 dogs go missing or are abandoned across the

:00:27.:00:30.

country each year? To try to tackle the problem of strays, the

:00:30.:00:34.

government is making it compulsory for owners in England to fit their

:00:34.:00:39.

dogs with a microchip. Those who don't comply by 2016 will face a

:00:39.:00:42.

fine of up to 500 pounds. Nel's been finding out more at the Dog's

:00:42.:00:52.
:00:52.:00:54.

Trust in Liverpool. What is a microchip? A unique way

:00:54.:01:00.

of registering a dog to their owner. It looks like a small grain of rice,

:01:00.:01:05.

it is implanted into the dog's scruff and it is the best way of

:01:05.:01:11.

reuniting dogs with their owners. Does it hurt? I give the example of

:01:11.:01:15.

getting your ear pierced, it hurts a little bit but Bennett is there

:01:15.:01:18.

for life, it takes about five minutes on the dog doesn't realise

:01:18.:01:23.

he has had it done. And Nel will have more on that story for us

:01:23.:01:25.

around 6:50pm. Now, we've heard quite a bit

:01:25.:01:28.

recently about racism in football, and today there's another example

:01:28.:01:31.

from Italy. The victim is Mario Balotelli, who only moved back

:01:31.:01:34.

there last week when Manchester City sold him to AC Milan. Well,

:01:34.:01:38.

now the vice-president of his new club has been caught on camera

:01:38.:01:41.

making a racist remark about the star striker. To make matters worse,

:01:41.:01:45.

the man whose made the comment is the brother of the former Italian

:01:45.:01:47.

Prime Minister. Scientists have finally been able

:01:47.:01:50.

to explain the mysterious goo which caused hundreds of seabirds to be

:01:50.:01:54.

washed up on the South coast of England last week. They say it was

:01:54.:01:57.

a chemical often used by ships to make their engines work more

:01:57.:02:00.

efficiently. The information could help to find the source of the

:02:01.:02:04.

contamination. The European Parliament has voted

:02:04.:02:08.

for big changes to its fishing rules to try to stop the fish we

:02:08.:02:12.

eat being wiped out. At the moment, around a quarter of fish caught are

:02:12.:02:16.

thrown back dead because they were caught accidentally. The changes

:02:16.:02:20.

could become law by next year, after more talks with the 27 EU

:02:20.:02:25.

governments. Now, how loud do you listen to

:02:25.:02:29.

music? Well, from this month, all across Europe, MP3 players and

:02:29.:02:33.

gadgets that play music will have a limit on the volume you can choose.

:02:33.:02:37.

And if you like your tunes louder, a warning will pop up on screen.

:02:37.:02:40.

It's because loads of us are at risk of damaging our hearing. Joe's

:02:40.:02:50.

been looking into how it works. Some music just has to be played

:02:50.:02:57.

loud. But how loud is too loud? Oh, sorry. How loud is too loud? Or

:02:57.:03:01.

music players from today will come with a warning system which says

:03:01.:03:05.

that if you listen above a certain level, you could be damaging your

:03:05.:03:09.

ears. Mark damaged his ears through years of playing music in clubs and

:03:09.:03:15.

at home on his MP3 player. He has a condition called Scimitars. I used

:03:15.:03:22.

to think the louder the better, then I got ringing in my ears.

:03:22.:03:26.

condition called tinnitus. It used to sometimes happen but then it

:03:26.:03:30.

would clear up, but now I am stuck with a ringing in my ear all the

:03:30.:03:35.

time. Mark is not alone, it is estimated that 6 million people in

:03:35.:03:41.

the UK have been affected by it. From today, all music players will

:03:41.:03:45.

have a system to control how loud we listen to our music. The safe

:03:45.:03:50.

level will be 80 decibels, you can be steered to 100 decibels, which

:03:50.:03:56.

is about as loud as a building site role. It if you try to go up to 120

:03:56.:04:04.

decibels, which is like a plane taking off, you will be warned.

:04:04.:04:09.

Loud music can permanently damage our ears and once they become

:04:09.:04:15.

damaged they don't come back. It is irreversible. Mark says he regrets

:04:15.:04:19.

damaging his earring and hopes the new rules will make a difference so

:04:19.:04:29.
:04:29.:04:31.

that people can continue enjoying the music they love.

:04:31.:04:34.

He's only the seventh man to reach this milestone for his country, so

:04:34.:04:38.

tonight's a big night for Ashley Cole. The Chelsea defender will win

:04:38.:04:41.

his 100th cap when England take on Brazil in a friendly at Wembley.

:04:41.:04:44.

The match is to mark the 150th anniversary of the Football

:04:44.:04:47.

Association. And finally to a couple who had a

:04:47.:04:51.

whale of time on a recent holiday to Hawaii. This pair got more than

:04:51.:04:55.
