What does the timber rattlesnake have in common with the eastern meadowlark? Or how about the elm-leaved goldenrod and the Green Mountain quillwort?These plant and animal species are all classified as endangered or threatened in Vermont. And right now, local biologists are working to update the state's Wildlife Action Plan. That plan is basically a wildlife-focused conservation blueprint for the state. The team that's been working on it is proposing some changes that could mark a shift in how the state thinks about conservation.Recently I sat down with Dr. Rosalind Renfrew to learn more. She's based in Montpelier as the Wildlife Diversity Program lead for Vermont Fish & Wildlife. We were also joined by Kent McFarland from the Vermont Center for Ecostudies in Norwich.Then; Marie Curie is a famous name, but even if you know who she is, you might only know the basics of her extraordinary life. Marie Curie was a Polish-French scientist and a pioneer in the study of radioactivity. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, and the first person to win a Nobel twice.Marie Curie is also the subject of a new book by Devon Jersild of Weybridge, Vermont.

Henry Award for her short story writing, and is the former associate director of the Bread Loaf Writers Conference, associate editor of the New England Review, and a visiting lecturer in English at Middlebury College.

The full-length, unabridged audiobook narrated by Weird Darkness host, Darren Marlar. | No one would have believed, in the last years of the nineteenth century, that intelligent life beyond Earth was watching us. Studying us. Envying us. When massive cylinders fell from the sky and buried themselves in the English countryside, curious crowds gathered to witness what they thought was a meteorite. But when those cylinders unscrewed from within, what emerged would shatter humanity's place at the top of the evolutionary ladder. Towering tripods. Heat rays that incinerated everything in their path. And an enemy more advanced, more ruthless, and more alien than anyone could have imagined. H.G. Wells' "The War of the Worlds" – the story that invented the alien invasion. This is the complete, unabridged audiobook that asks one terrifying question: What happens when humanity becomes the hunted?CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…BOOK ONE: THE COMING OF THE MARTIANS:00:00:00.000 = (I) The Eve of the War00:14:16.405 = (II) The Falling Star00:22:00.836 = (III) On Horsell Common00:27:45.677 = (IV) The Cylinder Opens00:34:17.623 = (V) The Heat-Ray00:42:57.421 = (VI) The Heat-Ray In The Chobham Road00:47:48.714 = (VII) How I Reached Home00:55:46.271 = (VIII) Friday Night01:01:29.924 = (IX) The Fighting Begins01:12:31.580 = (X) In The Storm01:24:39.457 = (XI) At The Window01:36:56.366 = (XII) What I Saw of the Destruction of Weybridge and Shepperton01:58:51.158 = (XIII) How I Fell In With The Curate02:10:01.190 = (XIV) In London02:31:21.494 = (XV) What Had Happened In Surrey02:48:02.610 = (XVI) The Exodus From London03:12:02.239 = (XVII) The “Thunder Child”BOOK TWO: THE EARTH UNDER THE MARTIANS03:31:49.519 = (I) Under Foot03:47:18.026 = (II) What We Saw From The Ruined House04:07:38.626 = (III) The Days of Imprisonment04:19:10.254 = (IV) The Death of the Curate04:28:53.956 = (V) The Stillness04:34:49.349 = (VI) The Work of Fifteen Days04:42:30.209 = (VII) The Man on Putney Hill05:16:03.135 = (VIII) Dead London05:34:44.711 = (IX) Wreckage05:45:53.821 = (X) Epilogue====="I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness." — John 12:46= = = = =WeirdDarkness® is a registered trademark.

Work has officially begun to create a new National Biosecurity Centre. It's being built on the existing Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) site, at Weybridge in Surrey. The whole project is costing between two and three billion pounds and is expected to take until 2033 to complete. The APHA was recently criticised by the National Audit Office, which said facilities there were not adequate to prevent or cope with contiguous national animal disease outbreaks such as foot and mouth and avian flu. However, the government says it is putting that right by the upgrade, which will ensure that the threat of animal diseases, which could be passed to humans, are prevented or dealt with efficiently. Unreliable mobile phone signal is a common complaint on many farms. Connectivity isn't just about messaging or making calls. Using apps and uploading data are an increasingly important part of everyday farming. Could part of the solution be private, portable digital 5G networks? We visit a farm thathas been trialling such a system.All week we're meeting the next generation of agricultural talent; whether it be farmers, foresters, land managers or agronomists. Thousands of young people will graduate from agricultural courses, across the UK this summer and all week, we'll be finding out what they hope to achieve, and what jobs they are looking forward to. We meet students from Moulton College in Northamptonshire who have just completed their agricultural studies.Presenter: Anna Hill Producer: Rebecca Rooney

“It's bows and arrows against the lightning, anyhow,” said the artilleryman.We traverse the hauntingly desolate landscapes of a Surrey that bears the scars of Martian aggression, a world teetering on the brink of the unknown. Our narrator, eyes wide with the fresh terror of invasion, shares a tale that is as much about survival as it is about the inescapable encounter with the otherworldly.In this recounting, he partners with an artilleryman, delineating the convergence of humanity's fight for survival against the backdrop of an indifferent universe. As they navigate through a world now desolate, through ashen scenes bearing the grim testament of the Heat-Ray, Wells' narration unleashes questions about our place in the cosmos, the fragility of our existence, and the haunting echo of an empire facing an aggressor against which its might seems but a whisper.
