If you've seen a rugby match with team New Zealand playing, then you would've seen the haka. It's a dance that's part of Maori culture and done in the Maori language. This week, we take a look at the latter. The language had seen a huge decline of speakers but recent revitalisation efforts have revived the language.

A study by recruitment firm Randstad stated that a third of Malaysians aged 18 to 24 would rather be desk-bound than work out of the office via telecommuting. Even though millennials are well known around the world for prioritizing work-life balance when looking for a job. And according to Rndstad Malaysia's  director Ryan Carroll, "the preference for a more traditional workplace could stem from the weak Malaysian economic outlook that has millennials more concerned about securing and retaining a job rather than worrying about benefits such as flexible work schedules”. On Talkback Thursday, we're asking: When it comes to your career, what is more important? Security or flexibility? Our lines will be open. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nature has perfected the art of deception. Thousands of creatures all over the world – including butterflies, moths, fish, birds, insects and snakes – have honed and practiced camouflage over hundreds of millions of years. Imitating other animals or their surroundings, nature’s fakers use mimicry to protect themselves, to attract and repel, to bluff and warn, to forage and to hide. The advantages of mimicry are obvious – but how does nature do it? And how has humanity learnt to profit from nature’s ploys? This month, on Eureka, Umapagan Ampikaipakan speaks to science writer Peter Forbes about the cultural history that links mimicry and camouflage to art, literature, military tactics and medical cures across the twentieth century.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
