Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Ferrari 458 Italia recalled due to fire hazard
By Rory Reid on 2 September 2010
The Ferrari 458 Italia is so hot right now. It's so hot in fact that the company's had to issue a global recall due to the 200mph supercar's propensity to burst into flames.
Five separate fire incidents, along with a series of mysterious crashes involving the 458 Italia, initially sparked fears that the car was cursed. However, Ferrari's top brass recently conceded there is a design fault that could lead to the £170,000 cars igniting.
The fires can be traced to the adhesive Ferrari uses to secure the inner lining of the rear wheel arches -- a part necessary to prevent dirt entering the engine bay. Unfortunately in some cases, the heat generated by the engine can deform these liners, causing the adhesive to ignite. Once the glue's on fire, it's only a matter of minutes before the entire vehicle is charred to a cinder.
Unsurprisingly, Ferrari has recalled over 1,000 458 Italia to have replacement arch liners fitted at local dealers. Rather than using glue, the company will affix the liners with 'mechanical devices' -- possibly a fancy word for "screws". All 458 Italia owners who've had their car damaged or destroyed as a result of fire will receive a new model.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

LOS ANGELES -- Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband wants have her body plastinated by controversial anatomist and Body Worlds exhibit founder Gunther von Hagens when she dies.
The 93-year-old's husband Frederic von Anhalt told German newspaper Bild: "My wife has always dreamt that her beauty would be immortal.
"I would like to show the plastinated body of Zsa Zsa Gabor in the context of a scene in one of her films," Frederic von Anhalt said.
Von Anhalt said German anatomist Gunther von Hagens should carry out the procedure, after his controversial world exhibitions displaying plastinated bodies with just muscles and tendons intact.

I once saw a Karmann Ghia catch fire. I believe at the time they had engine problems.
