Good afternoon, Team Newsround. Ayshah here with a brilliant | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
bulletin for you. Coming your way in the next five. | :00:08. | :00:11. | |
Helen Skelton, JK Rowling, and David Walliams - just some of the | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
inspirational people you want on magazine front covers. | :00:14. | :00:25. | |
And I am in Birmingham checking out cool gadgets including this led that | :00:26. | :00:31. | |
you can control with your phone. First to a subject that's got lots | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
of you getting in touch. Who should be on the front covers of your | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
favourite magazines? Leah's been speaking to the editor of Girl Talk, | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
one of Britain's top pre-teen mags, who says there are too many pop | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
stars and actors on front pages. They're now going to use more | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
positive role models, like top sportswomen and inventors. There is | :00:49. | :00:56. | |
no problem wanting to see pop stars or looking up to them. The campaign | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
is about making sure that girls see other people on the covers as well. | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
We will have Jessica Ennis in the future which is a big step as we | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
have never had a sports person before. Some people may say that | :01:11. | :01:17. | |
someone like Jessica Ennis is really pretty. So is it much of a change? | :01:18. | :01:24. | |
It is complicated and pushing the boundaries has to be done quite | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
gently. There cannot be a radical change. You've been suggesting who | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
you'd want on the front cover. Amelia wants Olympians like Jess | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
Ennis-Hill, Victoria Pendleton or Nicola Adams. She says most magazine | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
editors choose pop stars and they eventually get boring. Try someone | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
different! Maisie wants Dick and Dom as they're boys and it's usually | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
girls that are on the front cover. Joe suggests author Jaqueline Wilson | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
because she's inspirational and could influence anyone to become a | :01:52. | :01:55. | |
successful person like her. And Zoe's chosen Rebecca Adlington | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
because she thinks she's an amazing and inspirational person! Thanks to | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
all of you who got in touch - there's plenty more on the website. | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
Next to a huge medical breakthrough that brings hope for people with | :02:09. | :02:12. | |
spinal injuries. Four paralysed men who had been unable to move from the | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
chest down, can now move their legs, after a new treatment in America. | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
Special electrical pulses were used to stimulate the spinal cords | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
meaning the men could move their legs, hips, ankles and toes, though | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
they're not yet able to walk on their own. Researchers say the | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
technique could help millions of people worldwide affected by back | :02:30. | :02:37. | |
injuries. The treatment is specifically for | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
people who have had an injury to their spinal cord which has | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
interrupted the flow of information. So it will not help everyone but for | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
people who have had dramatic spinal injuries, damage to their back | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
interrupting the flow of information to and from the lakes, there is a | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
lot of hope. -- the legs. Last up, imagine turning your tablet | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
into some DJ decks, or being able to check what your dog is up to when | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
you're out. Just two of the next generation of gadgets on display in | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
Birmingham from tomorrow. Earlier today we sent Martin to check out | :03:12. | :03:21. | |
what the future holds. From smart beds to flying robots, it's all here | :03:22. | :03:32. | |
at the Gadget Show. This might look like a dog biscuit but what you do | :03:33. | :03:40. | |
is attach it to the collar and link it to your tablet or smartphone. You | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
can track the movements of your dog. And at your next birthday party you | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
could be entertaining your friends with this. It is called a mixing | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
desk. You can hook it up to your tablet and all your favourite songs | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
can be loaded into this and you can make your favourite tunes. What is | :04:02. | :04:09. | |
special about this scooter was like the normal scooter is brilliant fun | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
but you can struggle with where you can ride it. But this will pretty | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
much go anywhere. For the first time, smaller independent gaming | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
companies are here showing off their ideas. It is great for us because we | :04:27. | :04:34. | |
can afford to make the games. People download them and hopefully we get | :04:35. | :04:39. | |
paid at the end of the month? This is very comfortable. It will adjust | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
to your own body shape. You can adjust the firmness and the | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
temperature. All these gadgets have tired me out. It's time to call it a | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
day. That's all from me, Newsround's back | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
with the last word on CBBC at 6:50pm. | :04:59. | :05:02. |
