    It’s New Year’s Eve and the last thing Spid wants to do is celebrate. Now Spidmas is over, he feels unloved and unappreciated. But just as Spid is thinking he’ll never make anything of himself, Bid comes up with an idea that changes everything.This adventure is about recognising and taking charge of your feelings. And inspiring resolutions for the year ahead. It features two songs: 'New Year Ensemble' and 'Sheen Neean Kwai Luh (Xin Nian Kuai Le)' which is Chinese for Happy New Year. You can also find music videos of the songs at https://spidthespider.com and https://www.youtube.com/spidthespider. Spid is a lowly spider, who wants to better himself, write songs, and marry his girlfriend Bid, though he is prone to hilarious mishaps mostly of his own making. He is hard-working, cool, and a role model for young children. As well as encouraging children to read and love books, Spid's adventures also teach valuable life lessons, including determination and what psychologists call a 'growth mindset' (desire to better oneself and succeed), the importance of friendship, and sustainability. With very creative prose, Spid's adventures are fun for parents, and teachers to read to, and with, their children. They present lots of opportunities to invest dramatic licence thus helping adults and children interact and engage. The humour works at multiple levels from silly and slapstick to more sophisticated wordplay and concepts. Thus, children will discover more and enjoy reading the stories multiple times.

    In an era of rapid urbanization, cities are facing an array of challenges that threaten the sustainability and stability of urban life. From climate change-induced natural disasters to social inequality and economic instability, the vulnerabilities of urban environments are increasingly evident. As the global population continues to concentrate in cities, the importance of urban resilience has never been more critical. Urban resilience refers to a city's capacity to withstand, adapt to, and recover from various shocks and stresses, ensuring the continued wellbeing of its residents and the functionality of its infrastructure. 
    The resilience of urban communities is not just about withstanding external shocks such as earthquakes, floods, or pandemics, but also about the ability to respond to longer-term stresses like climate change, economic fluctuations, and demographic shifts. Cities are complex systems, where the interplay of social, environmental, economic, and technological factors can either contribute to vulnerability or foster the development of adaptive capacities. Building resilience, therefore, requires a multi-dimensional approach that integrates these various aspects, creating a robust foundation upon which cities can thrive despite inevitable challenges. 
    One of the primary reasons urban resilience has gained such prominence is the growing recognition of the vulnerability of cities in the face of climate change. With rising sea levels, more frequent and severe storms, and heatwaves becoming the norm, cities are exposed to significant risks that threaten public safety, economic stability, and infrastructure. Moreover, rapid urban growth often leads to poor urban planning, inadequate infrastructure, and limited resources to address emerging problems.

    Created by Merwin Gerard and produced by Collier Young, One Step Beyond was hosted by John Newland, "your guide to the supernatural" (also credited as "Our guide into the world of the unknown"). Newland, who also directed every episode, presented tales that explored paranormal events and various situations that defied "logical" explanation. Unlike other anthology programs, the ABC network series episodes were presented in the form of straightforward 30-minute docudramas, all said to be based on "human record" (implying historically factual events); however, the incidents depicted were closer to popular urban legends dramatized for the screen. The program included the corporate name of sponsor Alcoa in its title for its initial run. In syndication, the program title became simply One Step Beyond.   This volume includes Four tales of the supernatural from worlds beyond our own. Included are: Episode One: The Bride Posessed - A bride begins to predict features of an area she's never seen.  Audio from the television broadcast of January 20th, 1959; Episode Two: Night of April 14th - A girl dreams of drowning in the ocean, then learns her fiance plans a honeymoon for them -- aboard the Titanic.  Audio from the television broadcast of January 27th, 1959; Episode Three: Emergency Only - Coming out of a hypnotic trance, Ellen Larrabee predicts a dangerous train trip for a skeptical witness.  Audio from the television broadcast of February 3rd, 1959; and Episode Four: The Dark Room - A Woman photographer is almost strangled by a man she doesn't know.  Audio from the television broadcast of February 10th, 1959.
