:00:00. > :00:08.Hi, guys - Jenny here, with some amazing stories coming your way.
:00:09. > :00:12.Coming up, the scientific breakthrough that could help predict
:00:13. > :00:16.Plus, the turtle and his penguin pals preparing for a long trip
:00:17. > :00:33.Fighter planes have started dropping bombs on Syria for the first time
:00:34. > :00:36.as President Barack Obama continues his plan to try and beat a radical
:00:37. > :00:40.IS is a militant Muslim group which has taken over large parts
:00:41. > :00:42.of Iraq and Syria in the last couple of months.
:00:43. > :00:46.It wants to create a new country with strict Islamic
:00:47. > :00:49.rules and has tried to harm people who don't agree with its aims.
:00:50. > :00:52.Obama has promised to stop the group and has already bombed
:00:53. > :00:59.Next, to the scientific discovery that could help predict -
:01:00. > :01:01.for the first time ever - when earthquakes will happen.
:01:02. > :01:04.Experts have spent years trying to figure out when devastating quakes
:01:05. > :01:07.will occur but and now a team in Sweden they think they might
:01:08. > :01:16.Big earthquakes don't tend to happen in the UK but in some parts
:01:17. > :01:19.of the world they can destroy entire cities and leave millions
:01:20. > :01:22.But for years they have been the only natural disaster experts
:01:23. > :01:26.REPORTER: It is bigger than the US state
:01:27. > :01:28.of California and it is powering ever closer to shore.
:01:29. > :01:32.Weather forecasters can plot paths of tornadoes and hurricanes
:01:33. > :01:37.and predict heavy rains or flooding and even volcanoes are monitored
:01:38. > :01:41.for warning signs that show when they are about to erupt.
:01:42. > :01:47.But the same could never be said about earthquakes - until now.
:01:48. > :01:50.Scientists think they have come up with the new method and it is
:01:51. > :01:56.Earthquakes are caused when huge pieces of rock on the Earth's
:01:57. > :02:00.surface called tectonic plates rub together and force waves of energy
:02:01. > :02:05.This causes the tremors and shakes felt during
:02:06. > :02:07.an earthquake, and experts examining groundwater before two separate
:02:08. > :02:11.earthquakes in Iceland found the chemicals in the water changed
:02:12. > :02:17.They think it is all because of stress building in the rocks beneath
:02:18. > :02:24.Firstly, it shows that something happens before an earthquake,
:02:25. > :02:27.and if we are ever going to be able to predict earthquakes we need
:02:28. > :02:34.Secondly, that something is something we can measure and detect.
:02:35. > :02:37.This is just one study and some scientists say the new
:02:38. > :02:44.It is possible for changes in fluid flow to arise
:02:45. > :02:50.Fluids in volcanically active regions can be affected
:02:51. > :02:56.So just because we observe them doesn't necessarily mean there is
:02:57. > :03:01.But everyone is hoping that more work to successfully predict
:03:02. > :03:04.when earthquakes will happen could help save millions
:03:05. > :03:14.In other news, could you last a day without watching TV?
:03:15. > :03:17.New guidelines to try and make people more healthy say families
:03:18. > :03:24.The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence says limiting
:03:25. > :03:27.viewing could mean fewer of us might be overweight.
:03:28. > :03:29.They also recommend walking or cycling to school and taking the
:03:30. > :03:39.Scotland's First Minister, Alex Salmond, is expected to call
:03:40. > :03:42.for 16 year-olds to be able to vote in all future elections.
:03:43. > :03:45.He'll speak about the issue when the Scottish Parliament meets today, the
:03:46. > :03:50.first time since Scotland voted no to becoming an independent country.
:03:51. > :03:53.The voting age was cut to 16 for last Thursday's referendum, for
:03:54. > :03:58.Now - penguins, sharks and other sea life are all taking to the motorway
:03:59. > :04:02.this morning as they prepare for a big homecoming later today.
:04:03. > :04:04.Last winter's storms destroyed the Sea Life Centre in Hunstanton,
:04:05. > :04:08.near Norwich, and all the animals who lived there had to be moved.
:04:09. > :04:11.But after ten months their original home has been repaired
:04:12. > :04:15.and wildlife experts will spend today transporting as many of them
:04:16. > :04:25.You probably can't see because of the reflections on the glass
:04:26. > :04:28.but there is a huge replica of a dinosaur above us here.
:04:29. > :04:36.This tank will welcome a turtle, the fastest turtle in the East.
:04:37. > :04:40.He is on the way down from another sea life centre on the coast, it
:04:41. > :04:44.was an incredible operation, tidal flooding caused the damage here.
:04:45. > :04:54.And, this turtle. I will have to guide him in the water, whenever
:04:55. > :04:58.anything enters the water such as a foreign objects that are told tends
:04:59. > :05:01.to move away so to get him to do what I want to do, we will have to
:05:02. > :05:07.guide him into the stretch ourselves and won't he is in, when she out of
:05:08. > :05:12.the tank. How much damage was done here? More damage than your worst
:05:13. > :05:16.nightmare could have imagined when the tidal flood reached the sea wall
:05:17. > :05:18.back in December. Absolutely devastating.
:05:19. > :05:20.We had three or four feet of sea water
:05:21. > :05:23.We lost mains power and we were just
:05:24. > :05:30.All the way around the building we had
:05:31. > :05:31.water coming in through every doorway and
:05:32. > :05:38.It became very apparent that we were facing a major event.
:05:39. > :05:43.?3 million they have spent to try to reopen the aquarium.
:05:44. > :05:47.They have three weeks to go until it reopens but today is a big operation
:05:48. > :05:53.to start bringing some of the animals back into the tanks.
:05:54. > :05:59.That's all from me, Newsround's back at 4.20 with Martin.
