Prince Harry to marry US actress Meghan Markle

Prince Harry is to marry US actress Meghan Markle. The couple officially announced the news on Monday outside Kensington Palace in London, though they actually got engaged earlier in November. They hope to marry in the spring. Prince Harry, 33, is fifth in line to the British throne. Ms Markle is 36.

Prince Harry said he knew Ms Markle “was the one” he wanted to marry “the very first time we met.” He added that he was “thrilled” to be engaged. Ms Markle said she was “So very happy, thank you.”

Ms Markle’s engagement ring was designed by Prince Harry. It features two diamonds, which belonged to his late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales. In the centre of the ring is a diamond from Botswana.

Zimbabwe after Mugabe

Today, let’s talk about Zimbabwe. It’s a country in southern Africa. For the last 37 years Zimbabwe has been led by President Robert Mugabe. On Tuesday, 93 year old Mugabe finally resigned, bringing an end to his ruthless rule.

Following the news, there was wild jubilation on the streets of Harare, the county’s capital. Zimbabweans could hardly believe that finally they were free from the man that the majority of people in the country detested.

Mugabe only resigned because he was about to be impeached. Two days earlier he was thrown out of the ruling party ZANU-PF and dismissed as its leader. His wife Grace Mugabe was also expelled from the party and is facing prosecution.

Artificial Intelligence

Today, we are going to talk about artificial intelligence. It is supposedly the future.

Artificial intelligence, or AI, is intelligence displayed by machines created by man. One could say that artificial intelligence is a way of making a computer-controlled robot, a computer, or software, think intelligently, in a similar manner to how humans think.

Certainly, AI is leading to workers’ jobs being replaced by robots. However, in order to do all this, it will need even more IT programmers.
