Hey, Martin here with your final update of the morning. Coming up...

:00:00.:00:11.

The truth behind why you and your siblings are so different.

:00:12.:00:14.

Plus, the power to control your TV, tablet or phone at your fingertips.

:00:15.:00:31.

This is Newsround. But first to a sporting row over

:00:32.:00:34.

whether a new British athletics record should be allowed to stand.

:00:35.:00:37.

Olympic champion Greg Rutherford recently set a new British best in

:00:38.:00:41.

the long jump at an event in America. But rival Chris Tomlinson -

:00:42.:00:44.

who previously jointly held the record - says it shouldn't count. He

:00:45.:00:47.

claims Greg's foot was over the line and the jump was actually a foul.

:00:48.:00:52.

The judges say it was fair but Chris wants it looked at.

:00:53.:00:59.

It is not a legitimate jump. If we are going to accept these marks, we

:01:00.:01:05.

are British athletics and we have to set an example. We have to be above

:01:06.:01:13.

all this. These records have to be proper national records set

:01:14.:01:22.

legitimately. Now, how different are you from your brother or sister?

:01:23.:01:26.

It's a question you might have asked yourself and a new study says there

:01:27.:01:30.

might be more between you than you'd think. And it's all based on when

:01:31.:01:33.

you were born. Here's Leah with more.

:01:34.:01:39.

Whether you are first-born, middle child or the youngest, how you

:01:40.:01:42.

perform make me down to what position you are in your family. A

:01:43.:01:49.

study suggests first-born children are more ambitious when it comes to

:01:50.:01:54.

studying and going to university. But it also found that there was no

:01:55.:01:59.

difference between middle and youngest children. We thought we

:02:00.:02:02.

would ask you what you think of your siblings. If you need help with your

:02:03.:02:08.

home work then there is someone to help you out. You are the eldest, do

:02:09.:02:14.

you think you are smarter than your sister? I think I am because she

:02:15.:02:23.

doesn't work as hard as me. I think it is just a stereotype. Who is

:02:24.:02:28.

better at studying? You or your sister? My sister. Everyone is

:02:29.:02:37.

different. Not everyone is the same. One of the possible reasons is --

:02:38.:02:47.

could be down to mum and dad. Parents spend more time together

:02:48.:02:54.

with the first child because they are the only child at that moment.

:02:55.:03:00.

But whether you are first-born or not one thing never changes, sibling

:03:01.:03:05.

rivalry. I work harder than my sister.

:03:06.:03:17.

To other news from around the world now and a new study that claims some

:03:18.:03:21.

of the globe's biggest cities are sinking. In some mega-cities close

:03:22.:03:24.

to the sea, scientists say the ground is going down ten times

:03:25.:03:28.

faster than the water is rising. The research, which was presented by

:03:29.:03:30.

leading European scientists showed examples from Japan, Thailand and

:03:31.:03:33.

Indonesia. They say more needs to be done to stop it.

:03:34.:03:36.

To the latest in wearable technology next and the power to control all

:03:37.:03:40.

your gadgets using just one finger. Well, well sort of. This is the Nod,

:03:41.:03:44.

a high-tech ring that can be used to write air messages, read books on a

:03:45.:03:48.

big screen, send texts and even control your TV. It'll set you back

:03:49.:03:52.

almost ?90 but the man behind it is pretty excited about what it can do.

:03:53.:03:57.

Nod enables you to enact with anything around you. We have a

:03:58.:04:03.

slider. You can slide your visitation or your music. You can

:04:04.:04:11.

play, pause, change the volume or channel. Next to the space satellite

:04:12.:04:22.

found in the middle of a rainforest.

:04:23.:04:24.

A fisherman in Brazil's Amazon region has found a large piece of

:04:25.:04:28.

debris from a European space launch. The man said he found the metal

:04:29.:04:31.

object floating on a remote river. It's believed to be debris from a

:04:32.:04:34.

launch in a neighbouring country last summer. And you can see a

:04:35.:04:38.

special picture gallery of how that satellite was discovered over on the

:04:39.:04:41.

Newsround website right now. That's also where you can check out news on

:04:42.:04:45.

the latest Xbox launch and the details of the cast for the new trio

:04:46.:04:51.

of Star Wars movies. And finally, how do you go surfing

:04:52.:04:55.

when you've got no waves? Make your own of course. American surfer

:04:56.:04:58.

Garrett McNamara had a go at riding these artificial waves in Portugal.

:04:59.:05:01.

They were generated using a special
