Crystal Palace's win brings them out of the relegation But the bottom

three are on 18 points and the top three are breaking away. The

question is, who will slip up first? See you next time. Good

morning. Coming up in the next few minutes, the spacecraft being woken

up to chase a comet. And Andy Murray's on court playing for a

quarterfinal place in the Australian Open.

There have been violent clashes in Ukraine's capital Kiev overnight. A

rally of thousands in the city's Independence Square turned ugly as

anti-government protestors fought with riot police. The government

there has introduced new laws which the protesters say restrict their

freedom. Ukraine has been divided in recent times over whether it should

have closer ties with Russia, orthe rest of Europe. Authorities have now

said they'll begin talks to try and sort things out.

Next, to one of the most daring space missions ever attempted, to

land on a comet. The Rosetta spacecraft has been hibernating in

deep space for two and a half years to save energy. But later this

morning it will be woken up to chase after a comet - a huge lump of ice

and rock hurtling through space. The plan is to land onto the comet to

find out more about it. Nothing like this has ever been tried before.

We are excited about landing on a comet and analysing what it is made

off because comets are like time capsules. They contain the earliest

water and organic material before the planets formed.

Should energy drinks be banned from schools? There's a fresh warning

about them from a top government adviser on school food. John Vincent

thinks the mix of sugar and caffeine can damage children's concentration

and health. He is calling for more work into the effects of the drinks.

One school in Manchester is so worried that it has banned from its

pupils from having them. Andy Murray is on court right now in the

Australian Open tennis in Melbourne, playing the lowest-ranked player

left in the tournament. He's up against Frenchman Stephane Robert

and he's making pretty short work of it. He took just 25 minutes to take

the first set 6-1. The second set followed in similar fashion and the

Scot's now just a few games away from a quarterfinal place. As you've

just heard from Radzi. Chelsea made a 3-1 win over Manchester United

look easy at Stamford Bridge. Cameroon striker Samuel Eto'o scored

his first hat-trick for the club, to take Chelsea to within two points of

the leaders Arsenal. United had their captain Nemanja Vidic sent off

in stoppage time. And to top if all off, Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho was

doubtful United would be Premier League champions this season.

It will be difficult for them. I think they will go all the way and

they will try to finish top four, which I think they can but to be

champion, they need three teams to lose a lot of matches. This is quite

difficult. There were two more goals for

Emanuel Adebayor as Tottenham won 3-1 at Swansea. The win lifted Spurs

to fifth, with Swansea just two points away from the relegation

zone. Just how great is your imagination?

Could you create a world as magical as Hogwarts, or as funny as The

Dumping Ground? If the answer is yes, then the 500 words short-story

writing competition is back. If you are 13 or under and fancy taking

part, take a look at this. I am Chris Evans. You might have seen me

on the television, or heard me on the radio. But if you have not,

stick around. I have something exciting to tell you about. It is

the 500 words short story writing competition, open to anybody in the

UK aged 13 or under. You have to make up a story using no more than

500 words. I love great ideas and that is what writing is all about,

because when you tell a story, you bring ideas to life. What story will

you write? You can write any type of story, a horror story, . Or a love

story. Perhaps set in the future when robots rule the world. Or a

funny story about a person who is mistaken for somebody else. It

really is up to you. We want to see what you can come up with. We

absolutely promise to read every single one. Get reading. Get

inspired. Get writing. Visit the website. That's all from me,

Newsround is back right here in about half an hour. In the
