'Tim Rex in Space' to premiere Aug. 4 on Nickelodeon
The series, a co-production with Channel 5's Milkshake!, "follows a Tyrannosaurus Rex named Tim, his big brother Tommy, little sister Tia and triceratops bestie Kai, as they tackle kid-shaped adventures with dino-sized solutions in space," the official synopsis reads.
The voice cast for the series features Cassian Swan-Mckee, Ace Gill, Hope Delaney, Jamie Smart, Stephen Alan Yorke, Nim Miller, Sophia Nomvete, Jessica Robinson, Alex Carter and Lorraine Bruce.
"Tim and his family live in a unique world comprised of a cluster of asteroids that make up the town of Rumbleton -- a quintessential 21st century suburban town, with each asteroid hosting family homes, cafés, shops, parks and even a beach. All asteroids are connected by a network of slides, ziplines and trampolines, but can also easily be reached on a quick rocket ride," the network said.
Tim Rex in Space, created and produced by Mint Copenhagen will premiere Aug. 4 at 9:30 a.m. EDT on Nickelodeon, with an encore presentation at 6:30 p.m. on the Nick Jr. channel.

The Curious Animals of Amsterdam's Art Zoo
Eva Krook stood inside a canal mansion in Amsterdam last year, nervously awaiting news about a lost Tyrannosaurus rex. Krook had received a phone call from Italy informing her that there had been a mix-up with four crates in which the giant fossil replica had been packed for shipping to her new museum. The massive tail, rib cage, pelvic bone and limbs had all arrived, but when she opened up the fourth crate it was empty, save for a few scattered wood shavings. The T. rex's skull was missing. This was one of the hiccups in setting up the Art Zoo, an ambitious new museum that opened to the public in the center of Amsterdam last month. Situated in a 17th-century mansion in the city's canal district, the museum brings together natural history and contemporary taxidermy created by two Dutch artists who call themselves Darwin, Sinke & van Tongeren. Krook, the museum's director, said the T. rex wasn't her only logistical problem. She also had to figure out how to get a giant gorilla, made of 78 yards of denim, through the building's long and narrow front doors. 'This is a landmark building, so it's not like we can just break a door to fit it in,' she said. 'I joked that I felt like I was visiting the gynecologist, because we're always trying to figure out how to get the baby out — or in this case, in.' The T. rex and the denim gorilla are just two of more than 200 extraordinary objects now on show at the Art Zoo. The museum was created by Ferry van Tongeren and Jaap Sinke, a Haarlem, Netherlands-based artistic duo behind Darwin, Sinke & van Tongeren. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

Brazil, Peru show biggest gaps in student outcomes in Latin America, report says
July 7 (UPI) -- A new regional report highlights sharp disparities in student achievement across Latin America, driven by socioeconomic status and gender. Brazil and Peru top the list for inequality, while Chile and Uruguay show higher levels of equity. Education inequality remains one of the primary challenges in Latin America, according to a report by the School of Education at Universidad Austral, a private university in Argentina. The study is based on the 2022 PISA results -- the latest test administered by the OECD -- across seven countries in the region: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru and Uruguay. The report evaluates how many 15-year-olds reach basic proficiency in math and reading, comparing outcomes by socioeconomic background and gender. Researchers assessed the performance gap between the bottom 20% and the top 20% of students in each country. The inequality indicator shows that, in reading comprehension, the countries with the highest disparities are Peru, Colombia and Argentina. For every three students from high-income backgrounds who understand what they read, only one from a low-income background does. Chile showed the lowest disparity, while Uruguay, Brazil and Mexico fell in the middle. Across all countries, girls outperformed boys in reading comprehension, though the socioeconomic gap remained significant. In math, Brazil had the highest inequality in the region. For every five high-income students who met minimum standards, only one low-income student did. Peru and Argentina followed closely. Chile and Uruguay showed smaller, though still notable, gaps. Among low-income students, boys consistently outperformed girls in math in all seven countries. However, among wealthier students, girls scored higher than boys in most countries -- except Mexico and Peru. The report also found that girls from low-income backgrounds face a "double disadvantage" in math, performing worse than both low-income boys and high-income girls. The report's authors, economists Eugenia Orlicki and Cecilia Adrogué, recommend targeted policies to address these disparities. Their proposals include literacy programs, stronger early childhood education, focused math interventions and integrating a gender perspective in the classroom. Despite broader access to education, inequality in the region has deepened, the report notes. Inclusion, the authors conclude, only matters if all students are truly learning.

Eva Pilgrim to take anchor's chair on 'Inside Edition'
July 7 (UPI) -- Journalist Eva Pilgrim will serve as the next anchor of Inside Edition, replacing outgoing anchor Deborah Norville. Charles Lachman, executive producer of the newsmagazine series, announced Pilgrim will be joining the show as the series' anchor in the fall. Pilgrim most recently served as Senior National Correspondent and co-anchor of GMA3: What You Need to Know for ABC News. "We feel like we won the jackpot to have Eva join our team as the next anchor of Inside Edition," Lachman said. "She has solid news chops from her years as a reporter and anchor in national and local news, plus a warm relatability that resonates with audiences. We look forward to having a journalist of her caliber take Inside Edition into its next chapter." Norville announced in April that she would be stepping down after 30 years in the anchor's chair. "It has been an honor and a privilege to be here at Inside for all these years. A milestone like this is a time for reflection and on reflection I've decided that now is the time for me to move on from Inside Edition," she said on the show.
