Summary CYCLONEA massive cyclone is about to hit the north Queensland coast. People are already being evacuated from their homes as devastation is predicted. But what exactly are cyclones? And how do they happen? EGYPTEgypt is known as the place of the pyramids and the Great Sphinx. But while we know a lot about the country's past... its future is less clear. Egypt is going through a political revolution which has seen thousands of people protesting in the streets. What does it mean for the region? NEWS 24The previous stories have demonstrated how quickly a news story can break, and how important it can be to have the latest information. We look behind the scenes at the ABC's 24 hour news channel. We speak to presenters and producers and find out what it's like to work on the channel that never sleeps. CINEMAThe Oscars are just a few weeks away and it's the hot topic on many people's lips. But have you ever wondered how films are actually beamed into our cinemas, once they're made? Tash snuck behind the scenes of a cinema to find out how it all works. SPRINT STARSWe meet two young sprint stars who have more in common than just their love for running. Both athletes lost a leg recently and have started learning to run with the aid of a prosthetic replacement. Already they're winning medals. This is an inspirational story about winning against the odds
