SURREY, ENGLAND, December 11, 2010 (Press-News.org) Kuoni, the luxury holiday specialist, recently launched its all new brochure for 2011 holidays in Italy. In its pages, readers will find quintessential Italian experiences ranging from cookery lessons in Tuscany and visits to Lake Como to zooming round the countryside in a Maserati and climbing up Mount Etna.

These experiences prove that La Dolce Vita is thriving in our Italy holidays with a selection of colourful activities on offer in Kuoni's latest Italy brochure, which is valid between January and December 2011.

"From city breaks and glorious Italian lake holidays, to stunning coastline and rural retreats in Tuscany, our Italian brochure reflects the fantastic breadth of the country, pushing outside the usual realms of fashion, food and drink," said Sheena Paton, Kuoni UK Market Manager for Europe.

Highlights from the new brochure include new hotels, such as the 14th century manor house, Relais Histo, in Alberobello, the stunning and tiny Hotel In Pietra in Matera converted from a 12th century church and the beautiful five-star Tuscan Villa le Maschere with wellness area, lake and expansive park.

Unsurpassed experiences that get beneath the skin of the country also feature in the new brochure, including an afternoon at the twice-yearly Palio in Siena, the most famous bareback horserace with colourful pageant of costumed flag wavers. Prices include a private guided tour of Sienna and seats in the balcony or stalls. Travellers can also venture through Venice along the famous Grand Canal by gondola, complete with singing gondolier.

The new brochure also highlights full day tours of Rome, from the awe-inspiring colosseum, Roman Forum, St Peter's Basilica and Trevi Fountain to the glamorous Via Veneto, the River Tiber, Villa Borghese and Palace of Justice.

2010-12-11

Debenhams has reported that the trend for designer donkeys, Virgin Marys and Josephs is stronger than ever, with competitive parents splashing out up to GBP150 to ensure that their youngster is the brightest star in the nativity play. Grandma's chequered tea towels and chintzy tinsel from last year's tree are just not good enough it seems, as parents shape up their shepherds using the finest of materials. Designer chinos, shearling throws and fine silk party dresses are instead adorning this year's cast in community centres, churches and school halls for the annual ...

2010-12-11

The fact that Rev. Fred Phelps' Kansas-based, Westboro Baptist Church plans to picket Elizabeth Edwards' (the estranged wife of Presidential Candidate John Edwards) funeral this Saturday, along with the fact that repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell (DADT) got defeated, and the recent gay bullying ending in teen suicides, all combines to show that racism and bigotry toward the GLBT community is still very much a part of American life and is entrenched in the belief systems of people.

Our brains are wired so we can better hear ourselves speak

2010-12-10

Like the mute button on the TV remote control, our brains filter out unwanted noise so we can focus on what we're listening to. But when it comes to following our own speech, a new brain study from the University of California, Berkeley, shows that instead of one homogeneous mute button, we have a network of volume settings that can selectively silence and amplify the sounds we make and hear. Neuroscientists from UC Berkeley, UCSF and Johns Hopkins University tracked the electrical signals emitted from the brains of hospitalized epilepsy patients. They discovered that ...

Obese women with ER-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer have poorer survival rates

2010-12-10

About one third of all adults in the United States are obese, posing a major public health problem because of obesity's association with an increased risk of diabetes and heart disease. This study indentified a new hazard associated with obesity. Results ...

Most women do not get recommended mammograms

SAN ANTONIO — Only half of eligible women in the United States are getting their annual mammograms, even if they have insurance to pay for the procedure, according to data presented at the 33rd Annual CTRC-AACR San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium. Last year the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, an independent panel of non-federal experts in prevention and evidence-based medicine, recommended that the age of first mammogram be lifted from 40 to 50 years of age, at which biennial mammography begins, and caused a public outcry. To date, no major insurance company or other ...
