Six kids explore the possibility that dogs have been trying to warn humanity about a terrible enemy in their midst…vacuum machines. Genre: Science Fiction, Fantasy Excerpts: They were right all along. "What do they know that we don't know?" "What are they trying to protect us from?" "This is my home too!

When Nila Ibrahimi posted a video of herself online, singing proudly in protest of the ban on girls over 12 singing in public, she hoped the music would inspire young girls to continue their education. It was 2021 and the Taliban’s return to Afghanistan had come down swiftly on women's freedom. The video went viral and the ban was reversed, sending a powerful message across social media – women of Afghanistan would not be erased from public life. The Taliban would, however, go on to prohibit female education and Nila and her family would have to flee her homeland. Undeterred, Nila continues to advocate for Afghan girls from Canada.Listen in to winner of the 2024 International Children’s Peace Prize Nila Ibrahimi in her first ever visit to Australia. In conversation with UNSW’s Verity Firth, they’ll unpack how peaceful grassroots activism can empower people of all ages to challenge authority and the importance of a right to education.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jedni ji obdivovali za odvahu a vizionářství, druzí jí vyčítali, že vytvořila nereálný ideál ženské krásy. Narodila se 4. listopadu 1916 do rodiny přistěhovalců. Začínala od nuly, ale vybudovala firmu, která změnila hračskářský průmysl. Její životní příběh ale nebyl jen růžový. Sahá od vrcholu amerického snu až po pád a nový začátek. Za úsměvem slavné panenky se skrývá neobyčejná žena, která celý život bojovala o uznání i právo na vlastní druhou šanci.

What starts as a curiosity, a light on the bedroom ceiling that seems to have no source, heralds the appearance of a huge eye that just watches and watches. Genre: Mystery, Science Fiction, Horror Excerpt: I yelled out. The hazel iris shifted toward me. I slowly slid off the bed... dashed to the door, flung it open, and pulled it closed behind me. Okay, okay, think. I have to… I had cried out. Someone must have heard. Someone would come knocking on my door. Normally I didn't want that. But right now, right now I might want that. I might want that. What story or stories am I revisiting in this episode?

A previous story about an organ growing in the walls of someone's bedroom is “Chemoimagination.” Creepy coincidence?One night, after I posted this story, I'd plugged in a mini-fan to charge next to my bed. I woke up in the middle of the night and saw a glowing green eye on my ceiling. The fan had finished charging, and the indicator light happened to be facing up to the ceiling. And it happened to be the same shape and size of the eye I describe in my story. It didn't scare me. I immediately knew what I was. But I did sleepily think something akin to “heh, good one.” MY FIRST BOOK (yay)Ever wonder how I've gotten all these hundreds of stories written? I have a method.

Ob zaključku mednarodnega znanstvenega simpozija v oazi Siwa v puščavskem krasu Egipta, smo se s krasoslovci iz postojnskega Inštituta za raziskovanje krasa ZRC SAZU odpravili tudi na ogled piramid v Gizi pri Kairu. Največja, Keopsova je že nekaj let objekt spremljanja egiptovskih in slovenskih krasoslovcev, saj je ta štiri tisočletja in pol stara človeška stvaritev podvržena t.im. zakrasevanju. Zakaj? Ker so jo zgradili iz dvotonskih blokov iz po nastanku mlajše karbonatne kamnine iz kamnolomov blizu Nila. Raziskovalec prof.dr. Tadej Slabe nam je ob vznožju piramide na zahodni stranici kvadratnega temelja nazorno pojasnil, zakaj se je v tolikih tisočletjih za razliko od pred vetrom zaščitene vzhodne stranice površina kamnitih blokov tako »zakrasila«. In kaj to pravzaprav pomeni! In kot so zapisali v najnovejšem članku na to temo, objavljenem letos v strokovni reviji Acta Carsologica (54/1 2025): »Izpostavljeni bloki mehke karbonatne kamnine, iz katerih je piramida, razmeroma hitro pridobijo značilno obliko in skalni relief. Na zunanjih delih so bloki največkrat previsno spodjedeni. …« Članek so poleg našega sogovornika podpisali še prof.dr. Martin Knez z inštituta v Postojni, prof.dr. Magdy Torab z Univerze v Aleksandriji in doktorska študentka krasoslovja na Univerzi v Novi Gorici mag. Noura Fayad. Nekaj besed je sogovornik Slabe namenil tudi zakrasevanju antičnih spomenikov iz karbonatnih kamnin. FOTO: Keopsova piramida v Gizi VIR: Program Ars, Goran Tenze

Genre: Horror, Mystery Excerpt: There was a story told…of a little girl who went into the tower and came out unscathed...

What story or stories am I revisiting in this episode? Each Season 8 episode is a standalone story, but it's connected to or inspired by a previous story through a character, a place, an object, a concept, a continuation of events (ahem, sequel), and so on. The story that inspired this one, from way back in Season One, is called “Heliotrope,” about a device built by hopeful human hands.
