Summary PETROL PRICESAussies are bracing themselves for higher fuel prices as a result of the recent unrest in the Middle East. We look at why petrol prices are affected by the political situation in certain countries. We also explore the impact of petrol prices on everyday life. ONE AND A HALF MENThe makers of hit TV show Two and a Half Men fired lead actor Charlie Sheen for misbehaving. But where does that leave the cast and crew of his show? And why do they need to stop making episodes? Well, TV might have bright lights and famous actors... but when it comes down to it... it's still just a business. TV TEXTDeaf people rely on TV captioning to enjoy their favourite shows. We look at how TV captioning works, particularly during live broadcasts. We also examine why some people think the standard of the subtitles is getting worse. DUMB DOGSHow smart are dogs? We look at research which suggests that modern domesticated dogs aren't as smart as their canine ancestors. So why are dogs getting dumber?
