It is already known that Ferrari is working at a „top-secret” vehicle by the cars fans, a new GranTurismo model, which is to be presented in October at the Paris Motor Show, and even though it is classified as „secret” business, the profile magazines have already presented an idea of how the next Ferrari monster could look like or how it might just be. The very first rumors are saying that Ferrari will present a three-seated variant-which is very much to be doubted and was also officialy denied by Ferrari from the beginning.

In the second place, more plausible, rumors say that the model could be a coupe-cabriolet version with folding hard-top, to be powered by a V8 engine and bring out up to 450 horsepower. As Ferrari briefly mentioned so far, the upcoming 2+2 model will be the cheapest in the Ferrari line for the moment and it will have quite the same performances as the F430. From the design point of view all we know so far is that the new model will be 50cm shorter than the 612 Scaglietti.  For further details and keeping in touch with the automobile news, see the following: http://www.auto-power-girl.com/.

Almost everyone loves candles and the special atmosphere that they create when you are at a romantic dinner with your beloved or even at a chinese-food party with your friends. We all have seen all kind of candles, from the rose-smelling ones to the pink, natural-flowers inserted or even shells candles- the imagination of producers has no limits. Here is another example for that matter: the cork candles which can fit any wine bottle and are really something different. They look quite interesting on any table and for sure they will create a special atmosphere, just as you would like it.

Each candle measures  approximately 3 inches and will burn for 2.5 to 3 hours.  They are sold in set of  eight and are tapered to fit snugly into the top of an empty wine bottle to complete the intimate feel.

There is a total new thing available now for winter sports which can totally revolutionize the profile market- it is the so-called “switchboard”.The double-hinged Switchboard could be seen as a natural evolution of the snowboard, but until that is proven, it could potentially end up as the kick-scooter of the ski slopes. This product from Holland is certainly an interesting one and it is worth trying the experience.

The Venomsnow Switchboard will feature a couple of short woodcore boards that are joined end-to-end on a double hinge, featuring lightweight footstraps on top, twin skates at the bottom of the rear board, and an aluminum steering bar on a pogo stick-like suspension unit which is mounted on the front board. The main idea behind the double hinge action is to enable switchboarders to bend the board up and down, as well as left or right in the middle to carve tight curves whilst following bumpy terrain. The inclusion of the steering bar is a great idea since it allows riders to initiate turns and haul the front end up in jumps. As for the suspension unit, the chances are it will help minimize the impact on your knees whenever you land a jump. It features a pair of loose straps front and back that enable your feet to slip in easily, even if you’re wearing nothing but a pair of simple sneakers. The back footstrap is mounted to a pivoting turntable, allowing your foot to twist to different angles for maximum comfort and handling. Just like a skateboard, the switchboard allows you to take your back foot off to kick yourself along as you’re going to gain more momentum. Whenever you need to store the switchboard, just fold down the hinged setup into a compact, portable size.

Here is a watch that U really like- it is a man’s watch, perfect for strong personalities who do not want to remain an unknown in the crowd. This watch is more than just a beautiful aquisition, but also a very interesting way to see what time it is. On the Vulcania watch, made by producer Fabrice Gonetyou, can see time in few different ways- for example the hours are seen on the wheel, and the minutes are on the circular dial. There is even a small window to display the day.

The most interesting and charming thing is that you can actually see the inner mechanism of the watch which is done with some very cool sapphire glass panels on the front, back, and even the sides. Also the edition of this jewerly is very limited- so far, only 11 of these beauties have been produced, so if you have the chance to get one, consider yourself a lucky one!

Did you ever consider a fireplace right into your own living-room? I am sure most of us dream about that because it is surely a cosy image to be brought to your house, but in the same time it is very expensive to have a real one and quite a trouble to get it mantained. Here come the Japanese guys that thought about this issue too- they brought on the market a real fireplace illuminator heater that looks just like a plasma Tv but it shows the image of fire burning in real wonderful colors and the device actually heats the place. So, if you are passing through a very cold Russian winter, like I do, for sure you will need one of these.

Moreover, the gadget looks very nice in a living room and brings that mark of cosyness characteristic to a fire-place. On the other hand, you should know that the image can not be changed, the only one available is the burning fire. However, I could really use one of these inventions and I am sure it will look nice near a cup of hot chocolate and a good, classic movie in a cold night of January.
