Good morning, it's Thursday, I'm Jenny and this is Newsround.

:00:00.:00:00.

Coming up, Birmingham gets the perfect new arrival.

:00:00.:00:11.

And wakeboarders in Germany hit some unusual spots.

:00:12.:00:23.

With Wimbledon starting in just a few days, let's begin with a bit

:00:24.:00:26.

World number one Andy Murray has been named as the top seed in

:00:27.:00:32.

That means he's the favourite to win.

:00:33.:00:36.

It would be his third title at the All-England club.

:00:37.:00:39.

In the women's competition, British number one Jo Konta

:00:40.:00:42.

The 19-time world and Olympic champion Usain Bolt made his first

:00:43.:00:48.

appearance of the season in Europe last night, in the Czech

:00:49.:00:51.

And the Jamaican world record holder won in the 100 metres.

:00:52.:00:56.

He's getting ready for the World Championships

:00:57.:00:59.

in London in August, after which he'll retire.

:01:00.:01:05.

I'm just getting into my running now from training, but I'll be fine.

:01:06.:01:08.

When I get checked out by my doctor, the coach

:01:09.:01:12.

should be fine, so I'm in no worries.

:01:13.:01:17.

We've got something pretty special to show you now.

:01:18.:01:20.

This is mega rare film of a massive explosion on the surface of the sun.

:01:21.:01:25.

It was filmed by a US satellite that's investigating weather

:01:26.:01:31.

Next up, just before last Christmas, we told you about some very special

:01:32.:01:38.

penguins that travelled to a new home in Birmingham.

:01:39.:01:40.

Well, now there's been another new arrival.

:01:41.:01:42.

A baby penguin chick cuddles up to his mum and dad at

:01:43.:01:49.

They might look pretty chilled out, but his parents took an

:01:50.:01:53.

This group of gentoo penguins used to live in

:01:54.:01:58.

places like Denmark, Canada and New Zealand,

:01:59.:02:02.

but they were moved to their new

:02:03.:02:04.

home in Birmingham as part of a worldwide breeding programme.

:02:05.:02:07.

The penguins had to be moved across the world in a

:02:08.:02:12.

Well, that was last year, and now, this little cutie is the first baby

:02:13.:02:18.

Keepers are hoping for some brothers and sisters to

:02:19.:02:23.

The super gross collections of fat that join together,

:02:24.:02:32.

Well, now they've gone from yuck to useful,

:02:33.:02:38.

and are being turned into something a lot more valuable.

:02:39.:02:41.

Deep below our feet in the sewers underground, something nasty lurks.

:02:42.:02:49.

When people pour fat and grease from cooking down the drain, the fat

:02:50.:02:52.

clumps together to create massive horrible fatbergs.

:02:53.:02:57.

Some fatbergs are huge and can create big problems,

:02:58.:03:02.

costing water companies a lot of money to clear away.

:03:03.:03:05.

That's about four feet deep down there.

:03:06.:03:08.

But now, this sewer sludge is about to be

:03:09.:03:11.

changed into something really valuable.

:03:12.:03:12.

A fuel company is going around sucking up the fatbergs.

:03:13.:03:16.

They are then taken to a special processing plant, where they can be

:03:17.:03:19.

turned into a type of car fuel called bio diesel.

:03:20.:03:24.

So we've collected a fatberg from a water

:03:25.:03:26.

The vehicle has travelled down, he's come to site, he's now

:03:27.:03:30.

There's a lot of solid in this one, so actually he's using the

:03:31.:03:34.

This is where we receive all those raw materials to turn into biofuel.

:03:35.:03:41.

The fat gets heated, pumped and filtered,

:03:42.:03:45.

So we've removed all of the solids, all of the liquids and we're

:03:46.:03:52.

left with a really clean oil that looks a little bit like this.

:03:53.:03:55.

The bio diesel is way cleaner for the

:03:56.:04:03.

environment than regular diesel, and this plant can make up

:04:04.:04:07.

But are there enough slimy fatbergs around?

:04:08.:04:13.

As part of the trial, we've been taking about 30

:04:14.:04:17.

That's 30 tonnes of fatbergs from just Birmingham every week.

:04:18.:04:24.

I don't know whether to be disgusted or

:04:25.:04:25.

So, from yuk to useful, fatbergs are being turned into

:04:26.:04:31.

Next, when you're taking part in sport - it's always important

:04:32.:04:39.

The dog is going to give us the two most

:04:40.:04:53.

important words to start a

:04:54.:04:54.

Whilst most pooches are busy going for walks, playing fetch

:04:55.:05:02.

or eating biscuits, this four-legged dude is busy working at his local

:05:03.:05:05.

Jake is so barking mad about his local baseball team, the

:05:06.:05:12.

Fort Wayne TinCaps, that he volunteers to give

:05:13.:05:14.

water to the players during the

:05:15.:05:17.

Whenever he makes an appearance, the crowd hit the "woof".

:05:18.:05:22.

Before you know it, he'll be handing out hot dogs.

:05:23.:05:26.

Finally, what do you do if you're an international cable

:05:27.:05:33.

Search for new fancy spots to wakeboard, of course!

:05:34.:05:36.

For two weeks, six of the best international cable wakeboarders

:05:37.:05:39.

slid, jumped and flipped in search of unusual places to explore.

:05:40.:05:43.

They travelled 2,000 kilometres, with spectacular obstacles and some

:05:44.:05:56.

That is all, Newsround is back at 4:20pm.
