For hundreds of years, men dreamed of flying. If birds could fly, why couldn't
they? Early attempts were made to fly by gluing wax and feathers to their
arms and flapping frantically. They soon realized that people were too
heavy and their muscles too weak, to fly like birds. Trace the history of how
airplanes became a common means of transportation today.

Did you ever wonder how your favorite TV show is made? It takes much
work and many people to make a TV show. We never see the people behind
the scenes that make a TV show. You will discover how many people it
takes to produce a show. Also, we call them pencils, even though there's
really no lead in them. The lead is really a mixture of graphite and clay.
The name pencil probably comes from the first known writing materials that
were lead, that were uses by the Greeks and Romans. Watch as pencils
are being made.

When the Mayan Indians discovered chocolate many centuries ago, it
existed only as a liquid or a powder - not a solid. It wasn't until about
150 years ago that we discovered how to make chocolate in a solid form.
Chocolate as we know it, today, contains three main ingredients: milk, sugar
and cocoa beans.

Did you ever wonder where steel comes from or how much we depend
on it? Did you know that humans existed for 2 & 1/2 million years before
they discovered how to make steel. Steel is one of those items; we take
for granted. Almost everything we use is made of steel. Before washing
machines clothes were washed in streams, with rocks or sticks. Doing
laundry by hand was hard work. The washing machine allowed people to
spend less time on that chore and more time with their families.

railroad tracks were being built. The first toy trains were pushed by children.
Early toy trains are now thought of as "collector's items" and can be worth a
great deal of money. A modern toy train engine can contain 500 plus parts.

Continental Army but was routed out of New York State by the British army

In the aftermath of World War I, many modern-minded Americans,
particularly women, were eager to do away with outdated traditions and
claim new rights and freedoms. This program investigates the culture of the
roaring twenties—women's suffrage, prohibition, the exploration of the
Antarctic, the Scopes trial, the establishment of the Ku Klux Klan, the new
music called "Jazz", technological innovations and finally the stock market
crash and the subsequent economic depression.

courage and strength necessary to face and survive starvation, bombing,
torpedoing, massacre, and extermination in camps specifically designed

himself becomes a prisoner of war. By the late 1880s, the U.S. Army
has battled nearly all indigenous nations onto reservations. The war now
becomes an "Attack on Culture."

Video, P-J, 7, CS , Coronet, 1981
This program concentrates on the period from 1954-1956, highlighting the
events that began the modern black freedom struggle. Prior to 1954, the
South had followed a pattern of racial discrimination in state-sanctioned
segregation. The lynching in Mississippi of 14-year-old Emmett Till led to a
trial that caught the attention of the national news media. The courage of
Rosa Parks triggered the 1955-1956 Montgomery, Alabama boycott which
forced the desegregation of public buses.
Most monkeys live in trees - but not baboons! They spend most of their time
on the ground in troops traveling from place to place, looking for food and
watching out for leopards and lions. Sometimes baboons go up into trees
for nuts, berries or napping. They do pretty well there. After all - they're
monkeys!

Bill Nye gets things rolling and then puts on the brakes to demonstrate
how things cannot move or stop moving themselves. Everything needs a
push or pull - a force- to make them move or stop. Forces are required
for movement because all objects have inertia. Sometimes an object might
seem to be at rest, even when it is in motion. Confused? It's all relative.

It's easy to see why some people hate storms. They're big, loud, and often
accompanied by rain. But as any meteorologist will tell you, we need storms
to keep the Earth green and watery. Storms happen with huge masses of
air collide. Disaster or not, storms benefit us. The tropical regions of the
earth would be too hot to inhabit - and the sub-polar regions too cold - if
we didn't have hurricanes and typhoons to distribute the Earth's heat so
efficiently. Bill Nye.

around us by letting us know when new smells are close-by. Other animals,
like dogs, use their sense of smell even more than we humans do. Noses
receive a smell, then the olfactory part of the brain decodes the many
messages it gets, and lets you know that, your feet are truly smelly. Bill Nye.

Binge Drinking Blowout: The Extreme Dangers Of
Alcohol Abuse (V003752 )
Video, H-A, 27, CS, Aims, 1998
For many teens and young adults, having fun with their peers means
drinking alcohol, often to excess. Binge drinking - consuming large
quantities of alcohol in a very short time - is just part of the fun as these
young people encourage each other to participate in drinking games, such
as "funneling" or "emptying the keg". These games result in drunkeness
that will, at the very least, produce serious hangovers. But the even
greater danger exists that the consequences will be much worse - alcholol
poisoning and death.

Charles Darwin published "The Origin of the Species" in which he
postulated that all plants and animals originated with a single cell and over
time have evolved into the complex number of species that we know today.
This theory has become the organizational principle that biologists use to
explain the life sciences.

Building Blocks of Good Character (VK00189 )

Video Kit, P-I, 20, cc, Sunburst, 2003
Bullying is a serious problem that can disrupt a school's learning
environment and have devastating consequences for young people. This
video examines ways adults can effectively identify and intervene in
bullying situations. In "Toughen Up," Sammy is afraid to ask for help when
he is bullied by older students. And in "Just a Little Rumor" adults fail to
recognize or react when Ashley is bullied by a group of girls. Following the
two vignettes, experts highlight important steps to head off such situations.
After a series of brief scenarios featuring kids demonstrating kindess,
fairness, forgiveness, and good citizenship, the young host poses some
questions for viewers: Do they know what it means to have good character?
Would they describe themselves as someone with good character? Do they
think their friends have good character? Looking at different scenarios and
responding to the questions that follow each one, she tells them, can get
them thinking about what good character means.

to Benjamin Franklin when he met Iroquois leaders in 1754. Many

Narrated video and animated segments convey processes of

in membrane sacs for transport around the cell (and also for
export) by the Golgi apparatus, a sort of shrink wrapper for the
cells molecular products. One membrane-bound package is
potentially deadly, the lysosome, a sac of digestive enzymes
that if released into the cytoplasm would digest the cell from the
inside. But the packaging is robust and lysosomes move about
the cell, engulfing and digesting worn out parts, or in the case
of cells that engulf bacteria and other food items (amoebas and
certain white blood cells), the enzymes are put to work breaking
down the food in cell stomachs called secondary lysosomes, or
food vacuoles., 2003

Often considered the greatest English novelist of his time, Dickens suffered
a difficult childhood. His father was constantly in debt which neccessitated
Charles being sent to work at the age of twelve in a blacking factory. Despite
being deprived of an education by his parents, he worked hard and became
an office boy in a law firm, then a county reporter, and finally a reporter
of debates in Parliament for the Morning Chronicle in 1835. Dickens was
known for the cruel and suffering characters he created, who lived in a
world of iniquities. His social criticism was especially evident in some of his
greatest works including Oliver Twist and Hard Times. Other great novels
include A Tale of Two Cities, David Copperfield and Great Expectations
which is often considered his greatest work.

Kids will discover how these two vital systems work together to help keep
us alive through a process called cellular respiration. A close-up look at the
components of our blood - plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and
platelets - reveals just how critical blood is to our survival. Pumped by the
heart through a vast network of vessels, our blood is the ultimate pick-up
and delivery system, providing vital nutrients, carrying away harmful waste,
and fighting against disease and infection. Visit a hospital blood laboratory.
Although he set out to discover a new route to the mainland of
Asia, Christopher Columbus, instead, found the New World--new to the
Europeans, that is. This program recounts the darker side of the voyage
of Columbus and his men: especially their brutality against the Indian
inhabitants of the Americas. Viewers learn that the expeditions had two
primary goals: gold and converts to Christianity. Unfortunately, both goals
cost scores of Indians their freedom--and their lives.

The American Colonists' loyalty to the crown eroded slowly throughout
the 18th Century. As the distant Parliament began to levy taxes on the
burgeoning Colonies, the cause of independence gained strength, and
devotion to the Crown dwindled. The spiraling tensions took off in 1773.
The Townsend Act led to the Boston Tea Party, the Tea Party led to the
Intolerable Acts, and the British tried to re-assert absolute control over the
Colonies. But it was too late.
Of all major forest biomes, the community most dominated by the smallest
number of species is the coniferous forest, forming a belt around the top
of North America, Scandinavia, and Siberia. On lands shaped by ice age
glaciers, the hardy plants of the coniferous forest are well adapted to heavy
snowfalls and short growing seasons. This program surveys the plants and
animals common to the coniferous forest biome.

Viewers join the secret deliberations of and discover the almost impossible
job that faced the men who represented the former colonies. This
dramatized look at the Constitutional Convention, as seen through the
eyes of James Madison, shows how the delegates resolved the major
issues confronting the States as they struggled to maintain their individual
sovereignty in the face of the need to create a strong national government.
After two centuries, their solutions continue to inspire admiration.
The principle of "opportunity costs" plays a major role in consuming, since
we cannot have everything we want. The three fundamental categories of
consuming are defined as: 1) durable goods, 2) non-durable goods, and 3)
services. Through skits, we are shown the major pressures at work which
influence our choices as consumers. The program traces the growth of
consumerism throughout the U.S. in the last part of the 20th century.

1. LANGUAGE ARTS -- READING SKILLS.
To the average student, the definitions of date rape and sexual assault
are notoriously unclear. Use this program to eliminate the confusion so
young adults understand exactly what these things are--and the attitudes
and biases that typically accompany them--before anyone gets hurt. The
video firmly reinforces the concepts that rape has its roots in hate crime;
date rape is just as wrong as rape by a stranger; a victim is never "asking
for it," no matter how the person dresses; and no one ever "deserves it."
The video also underscores the rules of the dating game: a date is not an
invitation for sex; No means No; and the inability to give consent doesn't
mean Yes. Interviews with rape survivors and mental health professionals
shed additional light on the trauma caused by rape, the process of postrape emotional recovery, and the importance of post-rape support by family
and friends. Date rape drugs are given special attention, and tips on safer
dating are provided.

dragged into "the white man's war," while the besieged Mormons would
commit the worst massacre of innocent pioneers in American history. Sam

Teaches kids that, in order to be of use to our cells, food needs to be broken
down and absorbed into the bloodstream. This is the job of the digestive
system, a complex series of tools that includes, teeth, saliva, bile, acids
and enzymes designed to reduce nutrients to a form that can be delivered
to cells. But just as trash must be taken out at home, waste products and
indigestible materials must be removed from the body. Viewers will learn
that this is the role of the excretory system (liver, lungs, kidneys, even the
skin!)
Students will learn to understand how everybody and every family must
have food, shelter, clothing, air, and water and how these vary with
climate...how intangibles - love and care - are also important needs... how
people earn money to exchange for these needs, and that needs must
come before wants. However, sometimes the difference between needs
and wants are not so clear. Students see how limited resources prevent all
wants from being satisfied.

died. Children learn to understand that fossils give clues about the lives of
dinosaurs...discover how fossils were formed...learn which animals today
are direct descendants of dinosaurs. During the voyage original songs and

the desert still seems so dry. He learns why water doesn't soak into the
desert ground very well, how much of it just runs off. But most important,
he sees how life in the desert makes use of the little water that is there, and
how living things adapt to a place where it does rain--but not very much
or very often.

Though the earth seems solid and unchangeable, the surface of the planet
remains in a state of transition. As the fiery core of the earth builds
pressure and shifts global plates, the surface is battered by winds, rains and
changing ocean current. Some changes occur rapidly, while others occur
over centuries.
Describes how pioneers had to make or build everything they used. Shows
the workings of sawmills, gristmills, blacksmiths and the general store.
Explains how communities and villages grow as more crafts people move

In Hawaii on July 11, 1991, astronomers and scientists discovered a
remarkable opportunity to examine a total eclipse of the sun. Sun,
moon and earth would perfectly align, achieving "totality" directly about
technological advanced observatories perched atop Mauna Kea, a dormant
volcano. For the first time, giant telescopes could see behind the sizzle of
the sun and begin to understand our closest star.

Poe rose from the depths of despair at age 22, disinherited and destitute,
to become one of the greatest figures in American literature. At that age he
had three dozen poems published and went on to do forty more. But short
stories would prove to be the genre for which his contributions were most
significant. "The Pit and the Pendulum" and "The Tell-Tale Heart" are two
of his most enduring works. Poe virtually invented detective stories and the
notion of focusing on the process of solving a crime.

of ocean water, are the great provider of food, or the cause of sudden
death. The Arctic food web, is photographed for one full year both above
and underneath the ice floes where life goes on in the frigid, dark water.
The food web starts with algae growing on the underside of the ice, then
passes to crustaceans, fish, seals, birds, and larger mammals, and finally
to the Inuit.

a few key elements that are found across all works of fiction: setting,
character, plot and theme. Consider the possibilities and limitations of
setting, how characters are developed, the importance of conflict in a plot
and how a theme can serve as the unifying thread of a story. Through
careful explanations and engaging examples, students will discover the

Born into a famous New England family, Emily Dickinson (1830-1890) lived
a sheltered, reclusive life. Only seven of her poems were published during
her lifetime, and she died virtually unknown. Then a treasure of nearly 2,000
poems was found and published. Her poetry reflects her profound states
of despair and explores images of faith. Dickinson is considered one of the
greatest American poets of all time.

In the early 1800's, no one knew who would control the seemingly infinite
spaces of the West. But Americans began moving there nevertheless, and
the individual trails they followed eventually merged into the single path
of "Manifest Destiny." Mountain men found more adventure than profit as
they scoured the uncharted Rockies for furs. Missionaries left the safety
and friendship of home to travel west for a self-assured quest to "save" a
race of people who never considered themselves lost. Sam Houston.

nomadic tribes that once roamed the Great Plains has been stripped of their
dignity and denied their religious freedom. For Sioux, Comanche and Crow,
the tide of modern civilization was an endless wave of western expansion.
What pioneers called Manifest Destiny, Indians called trespassing. And
what Indians called natural law, the settlers called savage. This is the story
of the Indian struggle to preserve the honored traditions of their past.

By the 1870's, there only a few pockets of resistance against the nations
push to conquer the West. On the Great Plains, Sitting Bull followed his
mystical visions and urged his Lakota people to fight rather than surrender
their sacred Black Hills and traditional way of life. They would defeat
another warrior equally sure of his own invincibility - George Armstrong
Custer at Little Bighorn. Custer's "Last Stand" would also become the last
stand of the Sioux as a free people. Brigham Young, Chief Joseph of the
Nez Perce.
Intended to introduce students to the era of the steamboat, the part it played
in the settlement of the west and spark an interest in the collections of the
Ohio River Museum and river history. Narrated by John Briley, manager
of the Ohio River Museum. In addition to background on river life in the
19th century, Mr. Briley describes the purpose and operation of the classic
steam towboat W.P. SNYDER, JR. which is on display at the museum.

two very different places that have been forced to deal with the realities of
flooding. Visit Naburn, a small community in the United Kingdom located
on a flood plain along the Ouse River. Then, travel to the other side of the
world to Bangladesh, a country that is a river delta, where monsoons and
melting snow from mountains make floods a seasonal occurrence.
We tour the entire airport and see how passengers check in, how their
luggage moves through the building to end up at the right plane via the
computer system. We love the Control Tower, where we can see all over the
airport. Experts show us the Traffic Control Sytems and how they actually
follow a plane from its departure to when it docks at the next airport with
special light codes! In the new Boeing 777 cockpit we operate controls, we
see the cabin, galley and execute safety procedures with our captain!

All life forms need energy to life. This energy is derived from sunlight,
but how is it transfered from the sun to living organisms? The answer to
the riddle is quite simple and the clues are everywhere; the sun's energy
is passed on to other creatures through a sequence of producers and
consumers known as a food chain. Join Inspector Energy as he investigates
the transfer of energy among life's many organisms.

America was now the richest nation in the world; Britain was victorious,
but bankrupt; the Soviet Union had been devastated but was idealogically
strong and committed to the victory of its' brand of communism. The
cooperation of the war years and the hopes of its' continuation faded and
Europe faced years of extreme hardship. The forces that were to shape
international policies for the next fifty years emerged in 1945. This DVD
program is chaptered.
Hindu priest Veer Bhadra Mishra recognizes that untreated sewage
being dumped into the Ganges poses a serious threat to this river. An
environmental campaign is organized and the government allocates funds
for the project, but the issue of saving the river gets lost in political
bureaucracy.

contained in the chromosomes of every one of our cells, and that genes are
responsible for our characteristic traits - like hair color, eye color and height.
Heredity is the passing of these traits from parents to offspring. Viewers will
discover that genes and chromosomes are made up of DNA - the chemical
language that makes up those genetic instructions.

Genetic Code and Protein Synthesis (D001234 )
Narrated video and animated segments convey processes of
cellular biology. Breaking the DNA code, and the explosion
of molecular genetics that followed, have defined biology for
a half-century. Modifying the code to create special traits in
work horse organisms such as the bacterium E.coli is now a
major biotechnology industry that has led to modifying genes,
and splicing genes between species with often remarkable, if
controversial, results. All of this work rests on a simple principle.
The genetic code is a code that specifies the precise structure for
the millions of kinds of proteins found in living things., 2003

some of fiction's most popular genres while emphasizing that knowing the
genre of a text helps libraries, writers and readers to organize, think about
and compare works of literature. The characteristics, common themes and
popular subgenres of each genre are highlighted. Students will discover
that while some texts clearly fit into one genre or another, other aren't quite
so easy to categorize. Many authors create works that weave in elements
of multiple genres. By knowing more about fiction's genres, students can
predict certain things about a book, connect the book to other works of
fiction and develop a deeper understanding of the text.
North America's geology and topography is a fascinating and beautiful
story. The DVD captures footage from throughout the continent to tell this
captivating story. Major geological events such as the formation of the
Appalachian and Rocky Mountains, the advance and retreat of glaciers,
and major volcanic eruptions are highlighted. Other terminology includes:
orogeny, glaciation, erosion, deposition, plate tectonics, plateaus, faulting,
and plains. Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Death Valley, Bryce National Park.

Animals eat because it helps them grow and gives them energy to survive.
This program introduces viewers to the concept of grouping animals by
what they eat--as herbivores, carnivores, scavengers, and omnivores. It
also develops the concept of adaptation by showing some of the ways
different species are built to catch, eat and digest their food. It points out
that some mammals eat only one kind of food while others may switch foods
depending on the kinds that are available.
Using the world's best private eye, a microscope, host LeVar Burton
examines pond water and discovers what germs really look like. Then, in
the featured book, written by Melvin Berger, we find out what germs are,
what they look like, how they're caught and how the human body fights
against them. Available on VHS or DVD.

help of parental advice, support and love. Students are shown how to view
their parents realistically and empathetically, and to understand that the
freedom and autonomy they desire can best be earned by proving to their
parents that they are responsible and trustworthy.
A dramatic presentation of the writing and delivery of this important
document shows the historical and political background for this
impassioned speech. Using flashbacks of the Civil War, this program points
out that although Lincoln's speech received little attention at the time, to
later generations it personified the bitter struggle and loss of life during this
period of our nation's growth. Students will develop an empathy for what it
was like to be a part of the Civil War period.

By the late 1880's, Americans were astounded by the changes they had
brought to the West. Mining towns such as Butte, Montana were now fullfledged industrial cities, magnets of opportunity to workers from around
the world, but also places where the landscape itself was under assault.
Defeated militarily, Native Americans now flocked to the call of a Paiute
mystic, who offered the illusionary hope that the lost world of the buffalo
could be brought back by a Ghost Dance. Wounded Knee, Oklahoma Land

A wonderfully modern program for helping youngsters learn their left
from right. Interspersed with examples from their school, social, and
community environments, youngsters are exposed to visually interesting
and sometimes humorous examples of the difficulties that might occur
when one doesn't know left from right.
Goofy takes two youngsters on a behind-the-scenes tour of an airport
where they investigate both passenger and cargo transportation. They
learn about many types of airport workers and services. They meet several
members of the team who make it possible to fly safely. They visit a cockpit
and talk to the pilot about flying, and the control tower where they observe
the air traffic controller firsthand. The program ends with the two kids
preparing to take off on their first flight.

Grasslands support the largest number of plant-eating animals in the world.
And, living side-by-side with the herbivores, some of the world's largest
meat-eaters can be found. Located in every continent except Antarctica,
grasslands exist wherever there is too little water to support forests,
but enough to prevent the formation of deserts. Journeying through the
grasslands of Africa, America, and Australia, viewers are shown how the
plants and animals are similar and different.

In this program, archival footage shows how farmers paid the price for
displacing the perfectly-adapted ecosystem with monocultured, imported
crops. Under a persistent drought in the 1930's, millions of tons of topsoil
blew away in the prairie wind, resulting in the devastating dust bowl. It
examines the plants and animals which live in complex interdependency on
the remaining tracts of native grasslands, and shows how lessons learned
can provide valuable knowledge for modern, sustainable agriculture.

"The Great Shake-Up" In the first years of the Great Depression, banks and

with the disaster. We examine the changes that swept the shaken nation,
from the landslide victory of FDR in 1932, to the California migrations of
Dust Bowl farmers. Novelist James Michener tells how he joined thousands
of others riding the rails as hobos, and economist John Kenneth Galbraith

Hollywood responded with films that offered escape from the harsh reality
of life. Radia too, enjoyed incredible popularity, pioneering new genres like
the sitcom and soap opera years before the debut of television in 1939. But
at the same time, documentary photographers finding work in New Deal
programs, captured the essence of the Depression in images like Dorothea

up to people's expectations, some Americans fought back against a system
they felt had betrayed them. Workers everywhere went on strike and were
often met with bullets. Riots rocked Harlem after rumors circulated that
an African-American man had been beaten to death for stealing from a
white-owned five-and-dime. Bank robber Pretty Boy, Floyd carved a place

MacArthur did so with tear gas and tanks in the "Battle of Washington."
