Francesco Sauro - cave explorer
BODY:
Francesco Sauro specialises in studying the geology of caves and is one of the world's foremost cave explorers. The crowning achievement of his career so far is the discovery of the world's oldest cave system which can be entered safely. It's located on top of a tepuis, one of the mysterious flat-topped fountains which rise up out of the amazonian rainforest, surrounded on all sides by sheer cliffs.
EXTENDED BODY:
Francesco Sauro is an explorer of a lost continent - a region of planet earth that stretches for thousands of kilometres.
Filled with lakes, rivers and waterfalls and inhabited by unique animals - some of which have been cut off from the rest of the world for tens of millions of years.
Dr Sauro specialises in studying the geology of caves and is one of the world's foremost cave explorers.
The crowning achievement of his career so far is the discovery of the world's oldest cave system which can be entered safely.
The Imawarì Yeuta cave system sits within the South American tepuis - flat topped mountains with sheer cliffs on every side rising up out of the Amazon rainforest which were the setting of Sir Arthur Conan-Doyles novel, The Lost World.
He says it was an experience he dreamed about for months and hopes exploring these ancient, preserved worlds will give hints about the origins of life.

Caving was in the blood for Francesco - his father, who was also a cave explorer, first took him underground when he was just three years old.
Today he uses modern technology like satellite images to hunt for entrances to new cave systems and then uses 3D scanning technology to digitally map their interiors.
He's even been involved in training astronauts for the European Space Agency and says working deep underground has many similarities with working in outer space.
Francesco is on a brief break between expeditions and talks to Kathryn Ryan via Skype from his home in Italy.

Sound Archives on Ali's visit to Auckland in 1979
BODY:
With the passing of Muhammad Ali in the weekend, you have probably seen archival footage of his fights and legendary interviews all over the media, but you might not have heard anything yet about the two albums he released.

EXTENDED BODY:
"Ladies and Gentlemen, from Lousiville, Kentucky, wearing a black tie, Mr Cassius Clay... "
With the passing of Muhammad Ali in the weekend, you have probably seen archival footage of his fights and legendary interviews all over the media, but you might not have heard anything yet about the two albums he released.
One was I Am the Greatest, which was released under his name Cassius Clay in August 1963, only six months before he won the World Heavyweight Championship. The rhyming and delivery style could be considered an early form of rap, with the album opening with the line “This is the legend of Cassius Clay, the most beautiful fighter in the world today”.
In 1979 Ali visited New Zealand, and RNZ's Ian Woodley managed to get a few precious minutes with the boxer at a training session. Ali took the opportunity to discuss his public service album Muhammed Ali vs. Tooth Decay, an entire album about dental hygiene.

Our Window on the world tonight begins a 2-part BBC Documentary that traces the story of India's Deobandi school of Islam, which has inspired both a peaceful global missionary movement and the Taliban.

While seemingly peaceful and pious, the religion practised in Deoband is in stark contrast to Deobandi Islam in Pakistan where it has provided spiritual inspiration for many militant groups.
