Hi guys. Ayshah here with how you can make sure you're in fashion | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
thanks to a new study about beards. Plus the super specs that can | :00:08. | :00:10. | |
convince people you're paying attention. This is Newsround. | :00:11. | :00:19. | |
But first to the warning that Ukraine could be on the brink of | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
civil war. There's been lots of unrest there over the last few | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
months but today tensions are rising fast. Ukrainian troops have started | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
a fight back against armed groups who want nearby Russia to have more | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
control in the country. Here's Ricky with more. Tanks like these have | :00:34. | :00:41. | |
been spotted in east Ukraine. They are from the Ukrainian army but not | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
everyone wants them here. In recent days armed pro-Russian groups have | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
taken over government buildings and airports in ten towns and cities. | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
Those groups want Ukraine to be closer to Russia. But now Ukraine's | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
army says it's going to fight back and stop that from happening. | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
Overnight they took back an important airfield from pro-Russian | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
fighters. But many local people don't trust the Ukrainian government | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
and don't want Ukrainian soldiers in their towns and cities. In the city | :01:11. | :01:16. | |
of Kramatorsk, Ukrainian army tanks were stopped in the road, the BBC's | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
reporter James Reynolds was there. This morning I saw an awful lot of | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
shouting between Ukrainian army and the gunmen who like Russia. Nobody | :01:28. | :01:34. | |
really knows how it's going to end. Some pub -- Biddle worry about there | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
being a big war but ordinary people around here having their lunch, | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
feeding the pigeons, they say they don't want war. They love the | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
Ukraine and they also love their neighbour, Russia. And this shows | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
how complicated the conflict is. In the city of Donetsk pro-Russian | :01:50. | :01:51. | |
groups continued their takeover, invading the town hall. Russia's | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
president Vladimir Putin's warned Ukraine's on the verge of a full | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
civil war. But the UK and America say he is to blame for many of the | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
recent problems. The worry for people watching the crisis is that | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
having troops from two sides in the same area makes this a very | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
dangerous moment for Ukraine. Thanks, Ricky. There's loads more on | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
the background to everything that's happened during the Ukraine crisis | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
so far on the Newsround website right now. And that's also where you | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
can find out all the Heartbleed computer bug. It's hit the headlines | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
recently after affecting android devices, computers and big internet | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
companies like Google and Facebook. Heartbleed is a flaw that allows | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
hackers to get access to sensitive information via the websites we use. | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
Most of them have fixed the problem now but no one knows how much info | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
hackers might have gathered. Experts say you should change your passwords | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
just to be safe. Now the latest trends are hard to keep up with. But | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
if you've ever worried that you always seem to be getting into | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
things just as they're going out of fashion don't worry. The people | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
behind a new scientific study on beards say there's a good reason for | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
it. Here's Nel. Bushy ones, cropped ones, shaped ones. Beards have come | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
in all shapes and sizes over the centuries, and recently it seems | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
that having facial hair is back in fashion. A whole host of celebrities | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
have jumped on the beardy bandwagon making them THE coolest must-have | :03:19. | :03:27. | |
for men. That does more people growing facial fuzz actually mean | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
it's starting to lose its appeal? Researchers in australia certainly | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
think so. They showed people different pictures of faces and | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
found the more beards they saw, the less cool they thought they were. | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
Something that feeds into a much wider issue, that when things become | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
really popular people no longer like them. Fashion is a combo gated thing | :03:44. | :03:51. | |
and will be interesting dynamics comes of genetics, and what that | :03:52. | :03:58. | |
means is things which are rare, enjoyed a currency. They are more | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
attractive when they are rare than if those same things were common. So | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
the next time you think you're setting a new trend by doing | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
something a little bit different, just beware. Because the minute | :04:09. | :04:11. | |
everyone joins in there's a chance it will go from brilliant to boring. | :04:12. | :04:19. | |
I like that hat. You can join the chat on what's cool and what's not | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
on the website right now. And we'll hear what you've had to say back | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
here at 6.50pm. But last up, if you've ever struggled to look like | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
you're paying attention when you're not then listen up. A professor in | :04:30. | :04:33. | |
Japan has come up with a set of super specs to solve that problem. | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
They have two computer generated eyes that react to the the person | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
who's talking to you and make you seem interested and focused, even if | :04:41. | :04:50. | |
you're actually miles away. That's very interesting. That's your lot. | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
Newsround's back at 6.50pm. Bye bye. | :04:56. | :04:57. |
