It's Saturday afternoon, I'm Ayshah, time for your Newsround update.

:00:00.:00:10.

Could this bone be from the world's biggest dinosaur?

:00:11.:00:15.

And: The motorised loo world record attempt.

:00:16.:00:20.

First up, footy fans from all over the country will be getting ready to

:00:21.:00:25.

watch the FA Cup final. In just a couple of hours Arsenal will face

:00:26.:00:29.

Hull City. The Gunners are strong favourites but Hull will be hoping

:00:30.:00:33.

for an upset. Leah's been looking at the two teams' chances.

:00:34.:00:38.

The FA Cup. The oldest, most prestigious, knockout football

:00:39.:00:45.

competition in the world. 737 teams entered the cup. Now only two

:00:46.:00:53.

remain. Hull City and Arsenal. Steve Bruce has guided Hull City to their

:00:54.:00:57.

first ever FA Cup final seeing off Brighton, Sunderland and Sheffield

:00:58.:01:03.

United along the way. Steve Bruce won the FA Cup three times as a

:01:04.:01:06.

player and will be hoping history can repeat itself and the Tigers can

:01:07.:01:10.

claim their first major trophy in 100 years.

:01:11.:01:17.

When we were growing up it was the major thing, the FA Cup, the

:01:18.:01:21.

build-up to it. Everybody enjoys a shock. If you are not an Arsenal

:01:22.:01:26.

supporter everybody will be supporting Hull City.

:01:27.:01:31.

Arsenal have won the competition ten times. But they have not won a

:01:32.:01:37.

single trophy in nine years. Their route to the final has not been

:01:38.:01:43.

easy. They have had to defeat Tottenham, Liverpool, Everton, and

:01:44.:01:48.

Wigan to get to Wembley. We want to finish the season very

:01:49.:01:55.

well. It is the last game of the season in England. It is a big game.

:01:56.:02:12.

Let us enjoy it. It's going to be quite a game and

:02:13.:02:16.

you've been telling us all on the website who you want to win. Najma

:02:17.:02:20.

has loved Arsenal since she was little. Go, Arsenal. Herbie wants

:02:21.:02:26.

Hull to win because he's a fourth generation supporter. Come on, you

:02:27.:02:31.

Tigers. Thanks for those, guys. Emergency services are still

:02:32.:02:34.

fighting wildfires in parts of California in America. There are

:02:35.:02:37.

several fires in the state which have already caused around $20

:02:38.:02:42.

million in damage. Schools and homes have had to be evacuated. The BBC's

:02:43.:02:47.

reporter in California, David Willis, has sent this us report.

:02:48.:02:53.

California is known for its heat, but it has been hotter than normal

:02:54.:02:58.

here in the last week. Temperatures up to 40 Celsius in some places.

:02:59.:03:04.

That, coupled with high winds, have led to more than half a dozen fires

:03:05.:03:10.

burning out of control here. Dozens of buildings have been destroyed and

:03:11.:03:13.

thousands of people have been evacuated. Aircraft have been

:03:14.:03:21.

dropping water on the fires from above. So far they have had little

:03:22.:03:25.

success in controlling these fires and what are called "firenadoes".

:03:26.:03:29.

That's a cross between a fire and a tornado which consists of rapidly

:03:30.:03:33.

spinning columns of flame. Two teenagers have been arrested on

:03:34.:03:36.

suspicion of starting two of the fires. But oficials think that heat

:03:37.:03:43.

and the winds are the main culprits. They are hoping that lower

:03:44.:03:46.

temperatures over the weekend will help them gain a hold of these

:03:47.:03:48.

fires. Now to the discovery of bones from

:03:49.:03:52.

what could be the biggest dinosaur ever. Earlier I spoke to dinosaur

:03:53.:03:57.

expert Bill Sellers to find out how exciting this find is.

:03:58.:04:06.

Look at the leg bone. It is over two metres long. This thing was huge.

:04:07.:04:12.

That is fantastic. What do we know about it so far? We know it is very

:04:13.:04:19.

big. It was a plant eating dinosaur. It had four legs and a long neck.

:04:20.:04:24.

How does it compare to other dinosaurs like Diplodocus? How does

:04:25.:04:35.

it fit in? It is much bigger. This is ten times larger than a

:04:36.:04:42.

Tyrannosaurus rex. How important is this discovery? It is very

:04:43.:04:54.

important. We have not found lots of bones, but here we have bones from

:04:55.:04:57.

seven different individuals. That will tell as a huge amount about the

:04:58.:05:04.

dinosaur. What name will it have? It will have a cool name. It will take

:05:05.:05:11.

a year before we do that. These bones are enormous. They have to be

:05:12.:05:16.

taken off to the laboratory and cleaned up and analysed. Then we

:05:17.:05:27.

will name it. Giants to gymnasts now and

:05:28.:05:30.

14-year-old Ellie Downie has made British gymnastics history. She's

:05:31.:05:33.

the first British woman to win a European junior all-around medal,

:05:34.:05:36.

where your score is added up after competing on four separate apparatus

:05:37.:05:39.

- the beam, uneven bars, floor and vault. Ellie took junior bronze in

:05:40.:05:42.

the competition being held in Sofia, Bulgaria.

:05:43.:05:45.

Finally - could this be a world record-breaking toilet? Trevor and

:05:46.:05:47.

Shaun from Brighouse in Yorkshire certainly hope so. Today they're

:05:48.:05:51.

making an attempt at the land speed record for a motorised loo. But

:05:52.:05:54.

they'll have to beat this lady first. Canadian Jolene Van Vugt is

:05:55.:05:57.

currently the fastest person on a toilet.

:05:58.:06:00.

That's all from me. Newsround's back tomorrow.

:06:01.:06:02.
