:00:07. > :00:11.Hello. You are tuned into Newsround this Friday afternoon with Ore and
:00:11. > :00:14.Joe. He's not wrong. Stay where you are for some of this.
:00:14. > :00:18.The call for kids to stop playing with fireworks.
:00:18. > :00:28.And the world's highest skydiver tells us what inspired him to make
:00:28. > :00:40.
:00:40. > :00:43.First, it's bonfire season and many of us will be heading to fireworks
:00:43. > :00:47.displays this weekend or even planning our own at home. But there
:00:47. > :00:51.are calls for kids to be careful, after two boys were badly hurt when
:00:51. > :00:55.playing with a firework. And now one of the mums of the injured boys
:00:55. > :00:59.has released a picture of him in hospital to warn kids about what
:00:59. > :01:03.can happen when you play with these dangerous explosives.
:01:03. > :01:07.With bonfire night fast approaching, fireworks season is in full swing.
:01:07. > :01:11.Big events like this are put on all over the country ever year by
:01:11. > :01:18.professional firework display teams. They know how to put on an amazing
:01:18. > :01:21.show of light and sound. And they also know how to avoid getting hurt.
:01:21. > :01:24.But when fireworks get into the wrong hands, accidents can happen,
:01:24. > :01:28.and now three boys are seriously injured after playing with one, and
:01:28. > :01:33.one of the boys' mums has released a photo of her son in hospital to
:01:33. > :01:43.stop kids playing with fireworks. The picture shows the 10-year-old
:01:43. > :01:44.
:01:44. > :01:46.recovering from a burned face in hospital. You have to be 18 to buy
:01:46. > :01:55.fireworks and the one they were playing with is so powerful you
:01:55. > :01:59.cannot buy it in shops like this. Big rockets can fly at 100mph. They
:01:59. > :02:02.can travel 200 metres into the sky, And burn at temperatures of around
:02:02. > :02:05.800 degrees Celsius. And sparklers are even hotter, at 2000 degrees
:02:05. > :02:08.Celsius. Last year, 158 people were treated in hospital for firework
:02:08. > :02:15.injuries, and firefighters are always really busy over bonfire
:02:15. > :02:19.weekend. Around Hallowe'en and Bonfire Night, it is almost
:02:19. > :02:23.inevitable some children will get hold of fireworks. We ask you to
:02:23. > :02:27.remember everything firefighters have told you in the past and to
:02:27. > :02:30.give those fireworks to your parent or another adult, who will make
:02:30. > :02:34.them safe. So the best advice is to enjoy all
:02:34. > :02:36.the bangs and sparkle of fireworks night, but let the grown ups do the
:02:36. > :02:39.hard work. All week we've been talking about
:02:39. > :02:43.the destruction caused by Superstorm Sandy. When the storm
:02:43. > :02:45.hit New York, we heard from Ella and her brother Arman, who live in
:02:45. > :02:49.Brooklyn. Here they are celebrating Halloween despite all the
:02:49. > :02:58.disruption. We caught up up with them to find out if life is
:02:58. > :03:02.starting to get back to normal. will probably take time to get all
:03:02. > :03:07.of the tree is a way that have fallen down. There are a lot of
:03:07. > :03:12.trees that fell down and were half broken. It is pretty dangerous if
:03:12. > :03:20.you walk off the street. All of the trees are kind of cracking. It is
:03:20. > :03:23.pretty dangerous. We have a sports facility. And now it is closed
:03:23. > :03:31.because it is used for shelter for all the people who got evacuated
:03:31. > :03:34.from their homes. And my mum, she goes there and she helps there. I
:03:34. > :03:37.realise we are really lucky that did not happen to us.
:03:37. > :03:40.Staying in America, there are just four days until the big election.
:03:40. > :03:43.President Barack Obama and his opponent, Mitt Romney, have been
:03:43. > :03:47.criss-crossing the country for months, trying to persuade people
:03:47. > :03:50.to vote for them. One of the things lots of people have been talking
:03:50. > :03:59.about is Mitt Romney's religion. We sent Leah to find out about the
:03:59. > :04:03.Mormon faith. In the battle to be President, what
:04:03. > :04:07.you believe in is huge. Having a strong faith is seen as really
:04:07. > :04:11.important by lots of voters, so, from Mitt Romney, one of the big
:04:11. > :04:15.challenges has been getting past what people think of the church he
:04:15. > :04:19.belongs to. The Mormon Church was set up in the 18 hundreds in
:04:19. > :04:24.America. The Mormon church is officially called the Church of
:04:24. > :04:27.Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints. There are around 14 million Mormons
:04:27. > :04:32.living around the world, half of them in America, but the biggest
:04:32. > :04:37.temple outside of America, Canada and Mexico is right here in the UK,
:04:37. > :04:40.in Lancashire. For lots of people, what Mormons believe in is a
:04:40. > :04:45.mystery. There are many similarities between this church
:04:45. > :04:49.and other Christian churches. One of the differences is that we have
:04:49. > :04:54.the Bible, but we also have another book of scripture. And that book is
:04:54. > :04:58.called the Book of Mormon. Church's views are sometimes seen
:04:58. > :05:02.as controversial. Drinking tea and coffee is banned because of the
:05:02. > :05:07.strict health code, and at one time, Mormons were allowed to marry more
:05:07. > :05:12.than one person. It is not the way that we practised today. There is
:05:12. > :05:16.one man and one woman. We have one wife and one has done. Lots of kids
:05:16. > :05:20.and young people are part of the Church. Let's talk about the
:05:20. > :05:25.reactions you have got at school. have said on a few occasions that I
:05:25. > :05:32.am a Mormon, like to Dave. People usually think it is cool and do not
:05:32. > :05:36.sabre things. Sometimes they think you are trapped, but I choose to do
:05:36. > :05:40.this and I am glad. There are reasons for it and it gives me a
:05:40. > :05:46.chance to explain to other people. If Mitt Romney wins the US election,
:05:46. > :05:49.he will be the first Mormon to be President of the United States, and
:05:49. > :05:53.for a religion whose views are not very well-known, that is a pretty
:05:53. > :05:55.big deal. And you can find more out about the
:05:55. > :05:59.Mormon religion on the Newsround website. While you're there, check
:05:59. > :06:02.out Ricky's election blog. He arrived in the US earlier this week
:06:02. > :06:04.to cover the race to be President. And he's already been scribbling
:06:04. > :06:06.about it. Next, Manchester United manager
:06:06. > :06:10.Alex Ferguson says he doesn't believe referee Mark Clattenburg
:06:10. > :06:14.used racial language in a footy match last weekend. The incident is
:06:14. > :06:17.being investigated by the police and the FA. But it's also led to
:06:17. > :06:22.new calls for everything that's said on the pitch to be recorded.
:06:22. > :06:25.Referees are there to make sure footballers play by the rules.
:06:25. > :06:28.They've got the power to send players off for bad behaviour and
:06:28. > :06:34.things can get pretty heated when someone disagrees with their
:06:34. > :06:39.decision. Refs do wear mics so they can talk to their assistants, but
:06:39. > :06:44.what they say isn't recorded and it's not heard by anyone else. Now
:06:44. > :06:47.there are calls to change that. It's after referee Mark Clattenburg
:06:47. > :06:52.was accused of using inappropriate language to two Chelsea players
:06:52. > :06:54.last Sunday. It's been claimed he used racial words during the Blues'
:06:54. > :06:58.defeat to Manchester United, something he denies. But the
:06:58. > :07:08.argument has highlighted the fact that there is no way of proving
:07:08. > :07:09.
:07:09. > :07:12.what was said. If that conversation was recorded, if we could hear what
:07:12. > :07:16.was said between referee and player, we would know.
:07:16. > :07:20.In rugby, the refs wear mics and people who go to matches can buy
:07:20. > :07:23.earpieces to hear what they say. The sound is also played on TV.
:07:23. > :07:27.Players who are abusive to the ref can be punished, and because their
:07:27. > :07:30.voices are recorded there is proof. With people able to listen in,
:07:30. > :07:38.people are much more careful about what they say on the pitch. So
:07:38. > :07:43.would it work in football? We asked this ref for his take on the issue?
:07:43. > :07:47.I think players would not swear as much. I think they should not be
:07:47. > :07:54.recorded, because it is turning the game into football and the players
:07:54. > :07:58.could slip up and say something wrong. We asked the FA and FIFA if
:07:58. > :08:00.they were thinking about recording referees but they would not comment.
:08:00. > :08:08.Mark Clattenburg denies doing anything wrong but this could lead
:08:08. > :08:12.to a shake-up in the game. Finally, Felix Baumgarter, the man
:08:12. > :08:16.who jumped from the edge of space, says he didn't know he'd broken the
:08:16. > :08:19.speed of sound until after he landed back on earth. The Austrian
:08:19. > :08:23.daredevil said he'd wanted to go into space ever since he was five,
:08:23. > :08:30.and hopes he's inspired a new generation of kids to go on
:08:30. > :08:34.adventures. We accomplished something that mattered to the
:08:34. > :08:39.whole world, because I have been getting so many e-mails, pictures,
:08:39. > :08:42.drawings from little kids inspired by what we did. I talked a lot of
:08:42. > :08:49.young people who are thankful that we did this, because they missed
