:00:08. > :00:12.Hello, Newsrounders! I'm Hayley, and here's what's coming up: The

:00:12. > :00:15.new plan to put a stop to stray dogs on our streets, and the

:00:16. > :00:23.holiday surprise you'd never forget. First, if you've got a dog and it

:00:23. > :00:27.goes missing, you know how upsetting it is. But did you know

:00:27. > :00:30.that more than 100,000 dogs go missing or are abandoned across the

:00:30. > :00:34.country each year? To try to tackle the problem of strays, the

:00:34. > :00:39.government is making it compulsory for owners in England to fit their

:00:39. > :00:42.dogs with a microchip. Those who don't comply by 2016 will face a

:00:42. > :00:52.fine of up to 500 pounds. Nel's been finding out more at the Dog's

:00:52. > :00:54.

:00:54. > :01:00.Trust in Liverpool. What is a microchip? A unique way

:01:00. > :01:05.of registering a dog to their owner. It looks like a small grain of rice,

:01:05. > :01:11.it is implanted into the dog's scruff and it is the best way of

:01:11. > :01:15.reuniting dogs with their owners. Does it hurt? I give the example of

:01:15. > :01:18.getting your ear pierced, it hurts a little bit but Bennett is there

:01:18. > :01:23.for life, it takes about five minutes on the dog doesn't realise

:01:23. > :01:25.he has had it done. And Nel will have more on that story for us

:01:25. > :01:28.around 6:50pm. Now, we've heard quite a bit

:01:28. > :01:31.recently about racism in football, and today there's another example

:01:31. > :01:34.from Italy. The victim is Mario Balotelli, who only moved back

:01:34. > :01:38.there last week when Manchester City sold him to AC Milan. Well,

:01:38. > :01:41.now the vice-president of his new club has been caught on camera

:01:41. > :01:45.making a racist remark about the star striker. To make matters worse,

:01:45. > :01:47.the man whose made the comment is the brother of the former Italian

:01:47. > :01:50.Prime Minister. Scientists have finally been able

:01:50. > :01:54.to explain the mysterious goo which caused hundreds of seabirds to be

:01:54. > :01:57.washed up on the South coast of England last week. They say it was

:01:57. > :02:00.a chemical often used by ships to make their engines work more

:02:01. > :02:04.efficiently. The information could help to find the source of the

:02:04. > :02:08.contamination. The European Parliament has voted

:02:08. > :02:12.for big changes to its fishing rules to try to stop the fish we

:02:12. > :02:16.eat being wiped out. At the moment, around a quarter of fish caught are

:02:16. > :02:20.thrown back dead because they were caught accidentally. The changes

:02:20. > :02:25.could become law by next year, after more talks with the 27 EU

:02:25. > :02:29.governments. Now, how loud do you listen to

:02:29. > :02:33.music? Well, from this month, all across Europe, MP3 players and

:02:33. > :02:37.gadgets that play music will have a limit on the volume you can choose.

:02:37. > :02:40.And if you like your tunes louder, a warning will pop up on screen.

:02:40. > :02:50.It's because loads of us are at risk of damaging our hearing. Joe's

:02:50. > :02:57.been looking into how it works. Some music just has to be played

:02:57. > :03:01.loud. But how loud is too loud? Oh, sorry. How loud is too loud? Or

:03:01. > :03:05.music players from today will come with a warning system which says

:03:05. > :03:09.that if you listen above a certain level, you could be damaging your

:03:09. > :03:15.ears. Mark damaged his ears through years of playing music in clubs and

:03:15. > :03:22.at home on his MP3 player. He has a condition called Scimitars. I used

:03:22. > :03:26.to think the louder the better, then I got ringing in my ears.

:03:26. > :03:30.condition called tinnitus. It used to sometimes happen but then it

:03:30. > :03:35.would clear up, but now I am stuck with a ringing in my ear all the

:03:35. > :03:41.time. Mark is not alone, it is estimated that 6 million people in

:03:41. > :03:45.the UK have been affected by it. From today, all music players will

:03:45. > :03:50.have a system to control how loud we listen to our music. The safe

:03:50. > :03:56.level will be 80 decibels, you can be steered to 100 decibels, which

:03:56. > :04:04.is about as loud as a building site role. It if you try to go up to 120

:04:04. > :04:09.decibels, which is like a plane taking off, you will be warned.

:04:09. > :04:15.Loud music can permanently damage our ears and once they become

:04:15. > :04:19.damaged they don't come back. It is irreversible. Mark says he regrets

:04:19. > :04:29.damaging his earring and hopes the new rules will make a difference so

:04:29. > :04:31.

:04:31. > :04:34.that people can continue enjoying the music they love.

:04:34. > :04:38.He's only the seventh man to reach this milestone for his country, so

:04:38. > :04:41.tonight's a big night for Ashley Cole. The Chelsea defender will win

:04:41. > :04:44.his 100th cap when England take on Brazil in a friendly at Wembley.

:04:44. > :04:47.The match is to mark the 150th anniversary of the Football

:04:47. > :04:51.Association. And finally to a couple who had a

:04:51. > :04:55.whale of time on a recent holiday to Hawaii. This pair got more than
