1. Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron 253mph+, 0-62mph 2.5 secsOfficially the fastest car in the world. Ever. In a straight line the Bugatti Veyron simply owns the opposition. Electronically limited to 253mph, the Veyron’s top-end superiority is underlined by simply staggering acceleration. Remember the 243mph McLaren F1? Even given a 100mph head start, the Veyron would still beat one to the double ton. More fun stats include emptying the 100-litre fuel tank in 11 minutes at maximum velocity – a situation engineers have described as a ‘safety feature’. Travel that fast for a whole half hour and even the special high-speed tyres would apparently start to melt. With four turbochargers, the 8.0-litre W16 engine makes a minimum 1000bhp, so it’s no surprise to discover the car contains 17 different cooling devices. Four-wheel drive and sophisticated aerodynamics mean the Veyron isn’t just a hyper-performance dragster, either, cornering incredibly for something weighing 1888kg. A super-fast shifting seven-speed DSG gearbox and mega price-tag completes this ultimate high-speed package.

A laptop is a personal computer designed for mobile use and small and light enough to sit on one's lap while in use.[1] A laptop integrates most of the typical components of a desktop computer, including a display, a keyboard, a pointing device (a touchpad, also known as a trackpad, and/or a pointing stick), speakers, and often including a battery, into a single small and light unit. The rechargeable battery (if present) is charged from an AC adapter and typically stores enough energy to run the laptop for two to three hours in its initial state, depending on the configuration and power management of the computer.
Jackson's death certificate has been formally changed to reflect the Los Angeles coroner's ruling that his death was a होमिसिदे. Jackson's cause of death, previously marked "deferred", has now been changed to "injection by another".
Investigators have concluded that a cocktail of prescription drugs, particularly the anaesthetic Propofol, led to the singer's death on 25 June. Jackson's personal doctor, Conrad Murray, has been questioned by police, but not named as a formal suspect and no charges have been laid. Murray denies any wrongdoing.
In another decision yesterday, a judge ruled that Michael Jackson's estate may go ahead with the "extraordinary" expenses planned for the singer's funeral and interment. Superior court judge Mitchell Beckloff released the funds to estate administrators despite reservations that they might not have enough cash for the lavish funeral.
Jackson will be interred at the Grand Mausoleum at Glendale Forest Lawn Memorial Park, north of Los Angeles. Few details of tonight's funeral have been released, although estate attorney Jeryll Cohen said they are purchasing 12 burial spaces. It is not clear whether these are for other family members.
Cohen said the estate had more than enough money for the funeral. "The expenses are extraordinary," he admitted, "however Michael Jackson was extraordinary."
