* As much as Belgian designer Tim Van Steenbergen is a fan of vintage cars, or "Old Timers" as they're known in northern Replica Panerai Luminor Marina Watches Europe, he has no idea how to drive one. "I would be a danger on the road," says the license-less Antwerp native. His first collection of sunglasses for Theo eyewear borrows from the bodywork of those classic vehicles, and retools them for the contours of the face, creating what he calls a car structure for the eye. "I've always been inspired by the '50s," he says. "The post-war years when everyone was very positive, and looking for new things." The initial spark came after a Jackie Kennedy retrospective in New York where Steenbergen was taken by the quietly stylish details in the presidential background. He's named all six of the models in his collection after American automotive greats like the Wildcat (curvy and cheap_Coach Boston Bag_shop_usa_uk_29 cat-eyed) and the Thunderbolt (oversized, but not overstated), and lined each frame with a signature chrome strip. Casting new light on old design values has always been the Steenbergen way, but this time around we won't be mad at a little shade.

Games consoles to help people

2010-9-3 10:33:22

ALZHEIMER'S sufferers in Coventry will soon be playing with a new Nintendo Wii console thanks to two caring fundraisers.

Di Sturdy and Brenda Watson - regular fundraisers tiffany silver jewelry on sale for city charities - entered the Adidas Birmingham 5km Run last month in aid of the Coventry Alzheimer's Society.

Game will miss the flawed geni

2010-9-3 10:33:20

GENIUS may inspire respect, but only f lawed genius inspires true devotion. Zinedine Zidane moved from the former into the latter category with one nod of his head in this summer's World Cup final. For all the nonsense spouted about a tarnishing of his legacy, Marco Materazzi may have done the great Frenchman a favour.

tiffany jewellery sale

By exposing the human weakness of a footballing God, he inspired a sharper appreciation of his legacy. The avalanche of criticism which was expected in the wake of his headbutt on the Italian defender never arrived.

French President Jacques Chirac started the process by absolving the Frenchman, claiming that his actions were "understandable". His sponsors, adidas created a website to support him and he was voted most popular person in France in a poll conducted last month. Next to shuffling off his mortal coil, Zidance could not have done any more to preserve his legacy.

The makers of 'Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait' could not have envisaged the resonance which the events of July 9 would give their 90-minute masterpiece. In it, cameras follow the Frenchman's every move in a league match against Villarreal last season. It is a subtle and engaging piece of cinema and offers a keen insight into the nature of footballing genius.

Economy of effort is Zidane's guiding principle. Head constantly rotating, he takes in the game with an intense glare, like a predator waiting for its prey to let its guard down. For the most part he simply strolls around, occasionally breaking into a trot, rarely a flat-out run. He rarely speaks or shouts for the ball. Every movement is measured, understated.

Then the ball arrives at his feet and he comes to life - the impeccable control, the way he caresses it, shields it, never surrendering possession.

If footballing genius resides in Celtic FC moments then Zidane, like all truly great players, is happy to wait patiently for his. With Real Madrid 1-0 down in the second half, it arrives. He picks the ball up in the inside left channel, performs a trademark step-over and whips a perfect cross to the far post where Ronaldo cannot fail but head home.

Four minutes later, Michel Salgado seals the three points but Zidane, shrouded in anonymity for most of the game, has been the catalyst with one moment of genius. Sadly, he is no longer on the pitch to witness the victory.

The Frenchman's volatility, so brutally exposed by Materazzi in the World Cup final, has always been one of his defining characteristics. Significantly, the most he speaks during the game is after the referee awards Villarreal a dubious penalty. "You should be ashamed. You should be ashamed, " he repeats to the official.

Following a couple of hefty second-half challenges, the Frenchman sticks his forearm into an opponent and we are given a sharp reminder of his ability to self-destruct. Then a melee in the goalmouth lights his fuse again and he wades in, fists raised. When everyone is pulled apart, he is shown the red card.

Trudging off, he is given a standing ovation by the Bernabeu and shakes hands with handbags-d the manager. It is both a tacit acceptance of his f laws and an acknowledgement of his genius.

China passes Japan in size of

2010-9-3 10:32:57

TOKYO - Japan lost its place as the world's No. 2 economy to China in the second quarter as receding global growth sapped momentum and stunted a shaky recovery.

Gross domestic product grew at an annualized rate of just 0.4 percent, the government said Monday, far below the annualized 4.4 percent expansion in the first quarter and adding to evidence the global recovery is facing strong headwinds.

The figures underscore China's emergence as an economic power that is changing everything from the global balance of military and financial power to how cars are designed. It is already the biggest exporter, auto buyer and steel producer, and its global influence is expanding.

World stock markets mostly fell Monday on Japan's second-quarter figures. Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 stock index fell 0.6 percent, hovering close to a 13-month low. In Europe, the FTSE 100 index of leading British shares was down 0.6 percent while France's CAC-40 fell 1 percent.

Germany's DAX, however, was up 0.1 percent.

China has been a major force behind the world's emergence from deep recession, delivering much-needed juice to the U.S., Japan and Europe. Tokyo's latest numbers, however, suggest that Chinese demand alone may not be enough for Japan or other economic giants.

"Japan is the canary in the gold mine because it depends very much on demand in Asia and China, and this demand is cooling quite a bit," said Martin Schulz, senior economist at Fujitsu Research Institute in Tokyo. "This is a warning sign for all major economies that just focusing on overseas demand won't be sufficient."

China has surpassed Japan in quarterly GDP figures before, handbags k but this time it's unlikely to relinquish the lead.

China's economy will almost certainly be bigger than Japan's at the end of 2010 because of the huge difference in each country's growth rates.

China is growing at about 10 percent a year, while Japan's economy is forecast to grow between 2 to 3 percent this year. The gap between the size of the two economies at the end of last year was already narrow.

Japan's GDP, which isn't adjusted for price and seasonal variations, was worth $1.286 trillion in the April-to-June quarter compared with $1.335 trillion for China. The figures are converted into dollars based on an average exchange rate for the quarter.

Japan has held the No. 2 spot after the U.S. since 1968, when it overtook West Germany. From the ashes of World War II, the country rose to become a global manufacturing and financial powerhouse. But its so-called "economic miracle" turned into a massive real estate bubble in the 1980s before imploding in 1991.

What followed was a decade of stagnant growth and economic malaise from which the country never really recovered. Prime Minister Naoto Kan now faces a long list of daunting problems: a rapidly aging and shrinking population, persistently weak domestic demand, deflation, a strong yen and slowing growth in key export markets.

In contrast, China's growth has been spectacular, its voracious appetite fueling demand for resources, machinery and products from the developing world as well as rich economies like Japan and Australia.

China is Japan's top trading partner.

China's rise has produced glaring contradictions. The wealth gap between an elite who profited most from three decades of reform and its poor majority is so extreme that China has dozens of bil
