'Roadrunner' dinosaur discovered A fossil of one of the quickest-ever dinosaurs has been discovered in China. The dinosaur is called the Xixianykus zhangi, but it's better known by scientists as the "roadrunner" because of its speedy reputation. It's also one of the smallest dinosaurs that experts know about, measuring just half a metre long. It's thought it used its speed to avoid larger predators and was likely to have survived on a diet of small insects, such as termites and ants. Sport Jenson Button wins in Australia Jenson Button says his Australian Grand Prix win "feels pretty special". It was an action-packed race in Melbourne on Sunday, with some dramatic crashes and skillful driving. It began in the rain with Jenson in fourth place. But he guessed that the course would dry and cleverly changed his tyres to make his car faster. Jenson's McLaren team-mate Lewis Hamilton also drove really well but only managed sixth place after hitting another car late on in the race. World The phone you dial on your hand If you're sick of carrying your phone around with you, scientists could have come up with a solution: a phone that you dial on your arm! It sounds crazy but the experts at Skinput have invented a gadget that projects your phone's numbers onto your skin. To make a call you just dial the numbers where they appear on your arm - and the 'phone' will call your friends! The device is still being developed and won't be in the shops for a while.At the moment you have to carry a projector with you for the device to work. The projector is strapped to your arm, and projects a keypad on your skin. When you touch a key, the movement is picked up by a sensor in the projector which sends a message to the gadget telling it what to do.
