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. |
