</head>
<body>
   {news_item id=$MENU->getID() assign="NEWS"}
   {load_item itemtype=4 id=$NEWS->getImageID() assign="newsImage"}
   <h1>{$NEWS->getTitle()}</h1>
   <p><a href="{link item=$newsPage}" title="{$newsImage->getName()}"><img src="{link item=$newsImage}" style="float:left"></a>
      <b>{$NEWS->getTeaser()}</b></p>
   <p>{$NEWS->getContent()}</p>
