👁The Aztec myth of the unlikeliest sun god - Kay Almere Read
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish

🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣Statistics are persuasive. So much so that people, organizations, and whole countries base some of their most important decisions on organized data. But any set of statistics might have something lurking inside it that can turn the results completely upside down. Mark Liddell investigates Simpson’s paradox.

👁Secrets of the X chromosome - Robin Ball
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣The sequence of DNA that we inherit from our parents encodes directions for making our cells and giving us specific traits. Identical twins have the same DNA sequence, so how can one twin end up with a genetic disorder while the other twin does not? Robin Ball explains how the secret lies in X chromosome inactivation.

👁Why should you read "Crime and Punishment"? - Alex Gendler
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣What drives someone to kill in cold blood? What goes through the murderer's mind? And what kind of a society breeds such people?

👁How to use family dinner to teach politics
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English
👣Everyone should participate in decision-making and politics -- and it starts at home, says activist Hajer Sharief. She introduces a simple yet transformative idea: that parents can teach their children about political agency by giving them a say in how their households are run, in the form of candid family meetings where everyone can express their opinions, negotiate and compromise. \"We need to teach people that political, national and global affairs are as relevant to them as personal and family affairs,\" she says. \"Can you really afford not to be interested or not participate in politics?\"

🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣The Japanese dance and theater art of kabuki, derived from the word kabuku, meaning "out of the ordinary," can be traced back to the streets of seventeenth-century Kyoto. Kabuki became a dramatic art for the common people, with its use of makeup and facial expressions rather than masks, as well as a playful take on current events.

👁What makes TB the world's most infectious killer? - Melvin Sanicas
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English
👣In 2008, two 9,000-year old skeletons were found with their bones infected by an all too familiar bacterium. The ancient Greeks knew its effects as phthisis; the Incans called it chaky oncay; and today we call it tuberculosis, or TB. TB is still one of the world’s most infectious killers, causing more deaths than malaria or even HIV. How has it persisted for so long? Melvin Sanicas investigates.

👁What creates a total solar eclipse? - Andy Cohen
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣How can the shadow of the tiny moon eclipse the sight of the gargantuan sun? By sheer coincidence, the disc of the sun is 400x larger than the disc of the moon, but it's 390x farther from Earth -- which means that when they align just right, the moon blocks all but the sun's glowing corona. Andy Cohen details this extraordinary celestial phenomenon (and when it will next occur).

👁How risk-taking changes a teenager's brain
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English | Turkish
👣Why do teenagers sometimes make outrageous, risky choices? Do they suddenly become reckless, or are they just going through a natural phase? To find out, Kashfia Rahman -- winner of the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair (and a Harvard freshman) -- designed and conducted an experiment to test how high school students respond to and get used to risk, and how it changes their still-developing brains. What she discovered about risk and decision-making could change how we think about why teens do what they do.
