intolerance. Taken out of school at the age of 10 and apprenticed to his
brother as a printer, young Ben embarks on a remarkable course of
self-education, reading voraciously and teaching himself to write. He
eventually breaks his apprenticeship and travels to London, where he is
exposed to the new ideas of the Enlightenment. Returning to America,
he settles in Philadelphia, becoming first a printer and businessman
and, eventually, the most prominent newspaper publisher, almanacmaker and civic booster in the colonies, creating Philadelphia's first fire
department and the colonies' first lending library. Franklin turns next to
science, trying to unravel the mysteries of electricity, which have eluded
some of the greatest minds of the day. His discoveries, including the
relationship between electricity and lightning, are seen as a triumph of

Part 3: the Chess Master
By far the oldest of the principal leaders of the American Revolution,
Franklin, now in his 70s, embarks upon the most important role of his
life. The American Revolution doesn't stand a chance without outside
support; Congress sends Franklin to France in a desperate effort to
secure an alliance with England's greatest rival. All of Franklin's
considerable political skills - his talent for propaganda, public relations,
back-room strategizing, his gift for subterfuge and manipulation - are
called into play as he tries to convince the aristocratic French to lend
much-needed support to the Revolutionary cause. Despite the French
king's reluctance, and backbiting from John Adams, Franklin finally
succeeds in obtaining the French support that leads to an American
victory at Yorktown. With peace secured, Franklin returns to America,
weary and ailing. But his country still needs him. Two years later, the
elderly Franklin is carried into the Constitutional Convention to guide
the rancorous delegates debating the balance of states' rights and
federal power that will be embodied in the Constitution. Over the course
of most of a century, Franklin has been a prime mover in shaping a

Tools For Transformation: Making the Learning
Paradigm a Reality
Claude Monet
In his garden at Giverny, Monet created a vast canvas to research his
landscape paintings. He had a Japanese bridge built over the pond,
which he covered with water lilies. Anxious to render every variation of
light over the bridge, water, foliage, and flowers consistent with the
season and time of day, Monet worked simultaneously on several
canvases and returned to them again and again. This program
explores the 54 versions of Water Lilies from various viewpoints and
harmonies of light. We see that behind the apparent spontaneity lies a
very sophisticated work of composition.

Rembrandt Van Rijn
Even in his first paintings, Rembrandt positioned himself in the scene.
In the following years, at least 100 times he used his face as the only
subject in engravings, drawings, and paintings. Such singlemindedness, unique in the history of art, was very widely interpreted.
This program explores his self-portraits and attempts to determine the
secret meanings hidden in the various versions of Rembrandt’s face.

This is the widely heralded adaptation of the short story by Kate
Chopin, the late-19th-century writer whose work is only now receiving
the major recognition it deserves. The setting is Kate Chopin’s own
world—the world of the upper-class Creole society that dominated New
Orleans in the 1870s, a world with a strict code of behavior, one of
whose strongest tenets required a wife to subordinate her will and her
very being to her husband. Produced and directed by Tina Rathborne.

the tale of Oedipus and his family comes to its end--he, his wife
Jocasta, and his sons all dead; at the last, his daughter-who stood by
her father-is also destroyed.

Sophocles often won the leading prize at the Dionysia, the principal

second to none. This play recounts the story of Oedipus, King of
Thebes, a man who-out of stubborn pride-must know the truth at all
costs. It is the first of the three plays in the Oedipus saga, setting the
stage and creating the characters who will continue the story to its
conclusion in Antigone.

The Culture of Commerce
This program explores the systemic differences between the
individualistic capitalism of American and Britain and the
communitarian capitalism of Japan and Germany. It shows how both
Japan and German embrace more collaborative relations between
labor and management, government and business and even among
businesses than the more laissez-faire American system. Both Japan
and Germany invest heavily in worker training and long-term
employment guarantees. The Japanese system is dominated by
families of companies which finance and down each other; the German
system by banks which are investors as well as lenders; the American
system by entrepreneurs and absentee, mutual-fund type owners and
managers who wield great power.

"The German poet, playwright, and theatrical reformer who developed
the drama as a social and ideological forum is the subject of this
program, in which those who knew him discuss his life and many
works. Excerpts from plays such as Mother Courage and Her Children,
The Life of Galileo, the Good Woman of Setzuan, and Antigone
highlight the development of Brecht's austere form of irregular verse. A
later work, A Little Orgnum for the Theater, is the embodiment of
Brecht's idea of true Marxist drama. It also showcases his theory of
Epic Theater, which encourages spectators to view performances as
scientific analyses of human behavior, rather than illusions of reality."

The Brooklyn Bridge
The Brooklyn Bridge was not only a landmark, but also the first bridge
of its kind. No one had ever used steel for construction, nor used
cables of metal, nor built a suspension bridge so long. In 19th-century
New York, where buildings were no more than five stories tall, engineer
John Roebling's soaring and majestic Brooklyn Bridge was nothing
short of a technological miracle. But Roebling's innovation led to an
uphill battle against the elements, corrupt politicians, and scientists who
claimed the first strong wind would collapse the bridge to rubble.

Panama Canal
Teddy Roosevelt had a dream to make America a global power. It was
realized through the Panama Canal. The French began construction in
1880, but it would take the inventive American's to discover a way to
link the oceans. First, the diseases that attacked the workers had to be
controlled. Then, an innovative design for a series of locks was
developed. Finally, the dogged determination and backbreaking toil of
the Americans was rewarded when the Atlantic and Pacific oceans
were united on January 7, 1914. This is one of the most important
achievements of the 20th century.

Witches Curse
More than 300 years after the Salem witch trails led to death of 19
innocent people, psychologist Linnda Caporael has been searching for
a rational explanation for the systems of bewitchment. Her work has
sparked an investigation into wrenching convulsions, vivid deliriums,
contaminated crops, hallucinogenic drugs, and a 2,300 year-old murder
victim buried in a bog. Was bread tainted by a toxic fungus the real
cause of the symptoms in Salem? Is this the same fungus from which
LSD is derived? Can history's devastating witch hunts finally be
explained?
This hard-hitting drama about an average "Joe" who becomes a
murderer stars Susan Sarandon, and Peter Boyle in the role that
propelled him to stardom. The ultimate metaphor of the '60s -- a time
when cultures and generations clashed -- "Joe" is the story of the odd
friendship that forms between two middle-aged men commiserating in
a seedy New York City bar. Joe is a blue-collar worker who loves
drinking beer and showing off his gun collection; Bill is a wealthy
executive whose money cannot insulate him from his failings as a
father. The gap that separates them -- money, education and lifestyle -is as wide as the barrier that cuts them from their children. But they
bond through fear and frustration over their lots in life. As they search
for Bill's runaway daughter (Sarandon), the unlikely friends become
thrust into the midst of a shocking and humiliating experience that
ends in violence. "Joe" is a profound social commentary about an era in
turmoil.

Southern charm and unrelenting passion; and George Stephanopoulos,
the brilliant, handsome Rhodes Scholar who, as communication
director, calmly but surely mobilizes Clinton's staff to take the

campaign past the controversy of Gennifer Flowers and the draftdodging issue through such events as the Democratic National
Convention, the debates with George Bush and H. Ross Perot and the
final, nail-biting days leading up to the election itself. The War
Room is a compelling and enlightening look at two remarkable men,

The Miracle Worker
Description
A television remake of William Gibson's classic play about Annie
Sullivan's efforts to draw Helen Keller from her world of darkness and
silence.
The life of Martha Ballard, a frontier midwife in Hallowell, Maine, is
reconstructed from her diary by historian Laurel Ulrich. Based on the
book by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich.
[The Body of the Queen] - Elizabeth I led a Protestant nation to greatest
in a hostile, Catholic world, all the while deflecting intense pressure to
marry and conceive an heir. Her success stands in marked contrast to
the fate of her cousin, Mary Queen of Scots. The Body of the Queen is
the story of these two women - the politician and the mother, the winner
and the loser - and the birth of a nation. [The British Wars] - When
Charles I ascended to the throne in 1625, he brought with him a firm
belief in the Divine Right of Kings. This almost immediately put him at
odds with the parliament, and their struggle soon expanded to every
corner of the British Isles. Ultimately, three quarters of a million lives
were lost, and the nation was reshaped as a republic divided by
religion, politics and ideology.

[Revolutions] - England emerged from 50 years of civil wars a kingless
republic led by Oliver Cromwell. But the fighting was far from over:
driven by his vision of a "Godly Britain," Cromwell closed parliament
and led troops against Ireland and Scotland. After Cromwell died,
Charles II was restored to the throne, and his nearly thirty-year rule was
mostly peaceful. But a different fate awaited James II, his brother and
successor. [Britannia Incorporated] - England in the 1690s saw the
victors of the "Glorious Revolution" celebrating the dawn of a new era
under William III, while in Scotland the Jacobites still supported the
deposed Kind James II. Yet half a century later the two nations would
be forging a future together based on profit and common interest. The
new Britain was built upon money and commerce, not God.

How did the 20th century change the way Americans live? This ABC
News program anchored by Peter Jennings examines daily life during
the early 1900s - when William McKinley was President, a loaf of bread

45 years - while looking ahead to the decades of changes yet to come.

1914-1919: Shell Shock
The psychological damage inflicted by the stupefying bombardments of
World War I was called shell shock, a term that aptly described the

Peter Jennings illustrates America’s reluctant emergence as a world
power and analyzes the impact of the wholesale sense of loss - of life,
of husbands and fathers, and of sacred ideals such as honor,
patriotism, and glory - that sprang from "the war to end all wars."

particularly women, were eager to do away with outdated traditions and
claim new rights and freedoms. This ABC News program anchored by
Peter Jennings investigates why the issue of women’s rights, ranging
from suffrage to smoking, became so controversial - and what that said
about America’s sense of self.

Description
America - a nation that claimed ever-increasing wealth as its birthright was rudely awakened by the Great Depression, which caused 25
percent unemployment, the closing of 9,000 banks, and the loss of $2.5
billion in deposits. This ABC News program anchored by Peter
Jennings captures a people’s struggle as they faced the collapse of
prosperity and diminished hope of being able to experience the
American Dream.
Safely watching Europe from across the Atlantic Ocean, many
Americans observed the messianic popularity of Hitler and Mussolini
and the subsequent outbreak of World War II with concern and dismay.
This ABC News program anchored by Peter Jennings explores the
crucial question: could the United States resist involvement, or would
American forces be sent to fight in another European war?
World War II was the first war in history that killed more civilians than
soldiers, as leaders on both sides accepted noncombatant casualties
as inevitable - and, to some, even desirable. This ABC News program
anchored by Peter Jennings studies the courage and the strength
necessary to face and survive starvation, bombing, torpedoing,
massacre, and extermination in camps specifically designed for that
purpose.
The shock of Pearl Harbor awoke America from its dream of
isolationism. As troops went overseas and industry ramped up to
supply the urgent need for war materials, a new wave of Southern
blacks migrated north and west to fill the workforce - along with millions
of women, who exchanged housework for war work. This ABC News
program anchored by Peter Jennings discusses the effects of World
War II on the home front, spotlighting the war’s impact as a catalyst for
economic, demographic, and social change.
Demobilization after World War II meant difficult changes as the U.S.,
geared up for war, resumed a peacetime existence. This ABC News
program anchored by Peter Jennings describes America’s new status
as a superpower, as the nation shouldered the responsibility for
rebuilding Europe and Japan—and for containing Soviet ambitions. The
challenge faced by veterans and spouses to become reacquainted after
years of separation and hardship is highlighted.

Description
The post-war baby boom, suburban living, Marilyn Monroe, and Elvis
epitomize the contentment of the Eisenhower years. But these were
also years marked by rabid McCarthyism, violent civil rights
demonstrations, and a frightening escalation in the Cold War. This ABC
News program anchored by Peter Jennings probes the tension
between these crosscurrents in American history.
Beset by both international and domestic pressures, America during the
Camelot years was swiftly approaching a political-cultural meltdown.
This ABC News program anchored by Peter Jennings documents U.S.Soviet conflicts of interest in Cuba and Vietnam and the growing
polarization at home between civil rights activists and segregationist
hard-liners, which resulted in the Birmingham riots and the freedom
march on Washington, D.C.
Riots and protests intensified in the U.S. as the war in Vietnam dragged
on, with anti-war and civil rights activists seeking violent ways to agitate
for peace and equality. This ABC News program anchored by Peter
Jennings presents the unrelenting rage that divided the nation during
those perilous years, as the Watts race riots, the assassinations of
Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy, and the Kent State killings
made headline news.
The trauma of the war in Vietnam and the Watergate scandal left
Americans exhausted, embittered, and disillusioned with politics and
politicians. This ABC News program anchored by Peter Jennings
appraises the effects of those blights on the political landscape and
their impact on the trust between the government and the governed, so
vital to the well-being of a representative democracy such as the United
States.
The women’s and civil rights movements, begun decades earlier and
as controversial as ever, continued to evolve during the nation’s
Bicentennial period. This ABC News program anchored by Peter
Jennings focuses on the changing momentum of feminism, hampered
by its failure to secure broad ratification of the Equal Rights
Amendment, and the heated confrontations that arose over affirmative
action and busing.
The Reagan era witnessed the unexpected end of the Cold War and a
welcome return to a booming domestic economy—but did events
unfold too quickly to control? This ABC News program anchored by
Peter Jennings takes a look at the details and the aftershocks both of
the dissolution of the Soviet Union and of the yuppie capitalism that
threatened to push the limits of the American economy too far.

Revolving around Truvy's Beauty Parlor in a small parish in modern-day
Louisiana, STEEL MAGNOLIAS is the story of a close-knit circle of
friends whose lives come together there. As the picture opens, we find
Drum Eatenton shooting birds in the trees of his back yard in
preparation for his daughter's wedding reception that afternoon. Shortly
thereafter, M'Lynn and Shelby (Drum's wife and daughter) depart for
Truvy's to get their hair done for the wedding. "Just the sweetest thing,"
Annelle Depuy Desoto (who may or may not be married because her
marriage may not be legal) is introduced to Truvy's customers as her
new "glamour technician." While in the chairs, the sour-tempered
Ouiser Boudreaux shows up and entertains the assemblage with her
barbs. It seems that the only one of the group who truly understands
Ouiser is Clairee who is recently widowed and looking for a diversion.
As she says, later in the picture, "If you can't find anything good to say
about anybody, come sit by me." Filled with humor and heartbreak,
these "Steel Magnolias" make us laugh and cry as the realities of their
lives in tiny Chiquapin Parish unfolds. Written by Mark Fleetwood

allows him to get captured and put into the Gladiator games until he
dies. The only desire that fuels him now is the chance to rise to the top
so that he will be able to look into the eyes of the man who will feel his
revenge. Written by Chris "Morphy" Terry

Two vastly different sides of George Washington (Barry Bostwick), are
revealed in this spectacular historical series -- featuring a huge cast of
stars -- which was filmed on location in Virginia and Pennsylvania.
Based on the books by James Thomas Flexner. Part One opens
when Washington is a young child. His father dies and wills his larger
farms to two sons from a previous marriage, leaving George, his
mother and four siblings to live near poverty. George later develops a
close friendship with Will Fairfax (David Dukes), a wealthy young man
who provides George with an opportunity to pursue his dreams and
make something of his life. As a public figure, Washington's
questionable involvement in the French and Indian War gives way to
greater distinction as he leads the American colonies to victory in the
Revolutionary War. Privately, he finds happiness at Mount Vernon after
marrying the widow Martha Custis (Patty Duke Astin), while secretly
harboring a great affection for the beautiful wife (Jaclyn Smith) of his
best friend, Will.

Based on the books by James Thomas Flexner. Part Two
continues the saga of George Washington, the controversial leader
whose life is chronicled here in exquisite detail. With violence
erupting throughout the colonies, the American people must fight for
their destiny. It is a time when Washington faces many great obstacles,
not the least of which occur at home; he harbors a great
disappointment in his stepson and is crushed when the stepdaughter
he adores dies after an epileptic seizure. Then, after the Boston Tea
Party further divides the country, Sally and Will Fairfax escape to
England, which leaves Washington even more alienated from the
women he truly loves. Months later, in June 1775, Washington is
appointed General and travels to Cambridge to take charge of his army
against the British armada, which is twice the size of the Americans'.
He later suffers an enormous defeat, but is saved by a fog that enables
his troops to escape in the night.

Based on the books by James Thomas Flexner. Part Three opens
in December, 1776. The British have so overwhelmed the American
army that the defeats have had an astounding effect nationwide.
Desperate measures must be taken in order for Washington and his
army to score a much needed victory. Luckily, Washington scores
not one but two major victories, restoring hope to what has seemed like
a losing battle. But Washington's battles are not over. After the British
occupy Philadelphia and force Congress to evacuate, Washington, who
has moved his army to Valley Forge for the winter, learns of a
challenge to his leadership abilities and the possibility of a new war
hero succeeding him. With Martha's arrival comes strength and
support, and he regains his confidence not only in himself but in his
love for her. As the war come to a close, Washington reigns and
returns home to Mount Vernon, where a new life awaits him as a
private citizen.
In the landmark report, "To Error is Human," the National Academy of

98,000 deaths annually. This makes medical errors one of the nation's
leading causes of death. This program describes the findings and
recommendations of the report, including the three types of medical
errors identified in the report and the need to change to a "systems"
based approach to analyzing and correcting medical errors. In addition,
the program demonstrates techniques nurses can incorporate into their
care practice in an effort to prevent errors.

activities and building the perfect college application resume.
This film explores the causes of the Great Depression of 1929, its
effect upon Americans from all walks of life, and the forces which
eventually resolved the problems associated with it.
In 1957, the eyes of America were on Little Rock, where the
compulsory desegregation of Central High School was front-page
news. But what about the broader picture? How successful had
integration efforts in the South been in the three years following the
Brown decision? This program, filmed in that year, brings together a
panel of newsmen from the Southern Education Reporting Service to
assess—against the backdrop of anti-integration violence—the overall
progress being made in complying with the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling.
Today, busing as a vehicle of public school desegregation is being
phased out, but in 1971, when it was first mandated by the U.S.
Supreme Court in the Swann ruling, it was a volatile new process that
had strongly polarized public opinion in many communities throughout
the U.S. Filmed only five years after the controversial precedent was
first put into practice, this program looks at events in Charlotte and
Boston, two places that stand as icons in the busing battle.

Schools
Title
Who Speaks For the South?
Description
A court order to integrate Georgia public schools conflicted with the
state constitution, prompting much debate regarding the proper role of
the federal government and state’s rights. In this 1960 news special,
the late Edward R. Murrow reports on the issue of racial segregation in
the state’s schools, focusing on the proceedings of the School Study
Committee, a public forum in which residents of Georgia’s ten
Congressional districts voiced their opinions. The dozens of responses
cover a wide and sometimes ominous range of views. Murrow also
interviews the Pulitzer prize-winning journalist of The Atlanta
Constitution, Ralph McGill; Atlanta’s six-time mayor William B.
Hartsfield; and Georgia governor S. Ernest Vandiver.

The Other Face of Dixie
Prompted by Atlanta mayor emeritus William B. Hartsfield to return to
the South and show its progress in integration, correspondent Harry
Reasoner visits four cities previously examined in CBS News specials:
Clinton, Tennessee; Norfolk, Virginia; Atlanta, Georgia; and Little Rock,
Arkansas. Flashbacks to the earlier shows are combined with follow-up
interviews in this 1962 program, providing striking testimony to the
changes of just a few years. Along with Atlanta governor S. Ernest
Vandiver and Pulitzer prize-winning journalists Ralph McGill and Lenoir
Chambers, Reasoner talks with students at Little Rock Central High
School, their school board president, and Arkansas governor Orval
Faubus.
Hearts & Minds
Examines the American consciousness that led to involvement in
Vietnam. Includes interviews with General William Westmoreland;
former Secretary of Defense, Clark Clifford; Senator William Fulbright;
Walt Rostow; and Daniel Ellsberg.
Misconceptions and lack of understanding dominate America's
perception of Islam, the world's second largest and fastest growing
religion. Muslims takes an in-depth look at what it means to be a
Muslim in the 21st century. Filmed in Egypt, Mayaysia, Iran, Turkey,
Nigeria and the United States, Muslims explores the influence of culture
and politics on religion, and provides a deeper understanding of the
political forces at work among Muslims around the world. The film
emphasizes Islam's kinship with Christianity and Judaism and looks at
diverse interpretations of Islam among the Muslim people.

Family Affairs
Claudius, Emperor of Rome, nears the end of his life and commences

treacherous Livia, who plots to have her son Tiberius inherit her
husband's throne. Only the emperor's spoiled daughter, Julia, stands in
her way.
Almost ten years pass before Livia can realize her dream of vengeance
and arrange the poisoning of Julia's husband. Now Tiberius can marry
Julia, enhancing his chance of becoming emperor. But the union fares
poorly. When Tiberius' brother, Drusus, dies in the care of Livia's
doctor, Tiberius is driven to despair, and embarks on a violent rampage
that ends in his banishment from Rome.

Julia herself is banished, after Livia reveals details of her orgies to
Augustus, turning him against his own daughter. Finally, Tiberius
returns to Rome. But he must wait in the shadow of aging Augustus for
his time on the throne, and so must Livia.
Only one obstacle remains between Tiberius and the throne: Julia's son
and heir to Augustus, Postumus. Livia entraps Postumus in an
adulterous tryst and he is arrested for rape and banished from Rome.
Postumus reveals her plots to Claudius, Livia's stammering and lame
grandson. Claudius, though regarded as a half-wit, is wiser than
anyone suspects, hiding behind the face of a fool in order to survive.

Description
Emperor Augustus grows more senile. Tiberius bides his time. But
when revelations of Livia's crimes reach Augustus, the emperor,
realizing he has been duped, writes a new will favoring Postumus, in
order to block Tiberius from gaining the throne. Livia, in her ultimate act
of treachery, slowly poisons her husband. After his death, she
substitutes her own version of the emperor's will and orders the murder
of her remaining rivals. Tiberius rules Rome.
Suspicions of a conspiracy involving Tiberius and Livia abound. A
Senate trial must be rigged to clear the emperor's henchmen. But when
the cover-up begins to unravel, one of the defendants threatens to
implicate Tiberius himself in murder. He lives just long enough to regret
his threat.
Tiberius revels in a life of erotic hedonism, living only for perverted
pleasures, egged on by Agrippina's cunning son, Caligula. His former
allies see his end ahead and build ties to Claudius, next in line to the
throne. Livia, a mere shell of her former self, now regrets her son's
savage reign. On her deathbed, she reveals the full scope of the
family's crimes to Claudius--and makes him promise that she will be
revered as a goddess for generations to come.
Tiberius, old and frail, slowly begins killing off all who could succeed
him. Fearing assassination, he orders a purge, leaving the Senate piled
high with the bodies of his enemies. Claudius survives only through
cleverness. Finally, Tiberius banishes his long-hated rival Agrippina
along with her son, Nero. Caligula is now in a position to capture the
throne.
On the brink of death, Tiberius names Caligula heir to the Roman
throne. To win favor with the masses, Caligula spreads money left by
Tiberius among the Roman people and pledges to pay off Livia's debts.
A new age of prosperity seems to be beginning. But Caligula soon
descends into madness. He declares himself a god and embarks on an
orgy of bloodletting, murdering all who might challenge his heavenly
rule--even his own sister.
Caligula, now totally mad, turns the imperial palace into a brothel with
orgies and gambling. The empire is in financial ruin, though Claudius
retains his dreams that one day the true Roman republic will be
restored. Caligula taunts his court with ever greater wickedness.
Finally, he is assassinated right in front of the eyes of Claudius. The
soldiers, eager to justify their coup, give the crown to Claudius. At last
he is the emperor of Rome, as had been prophesied.

Description
"Trust no one" is the advice Claudius receives from a valued friend as
he ascends the throne. But the aging emperor is at the peak of his life.
His beautiful young wife, Messalina, gives him a son and daughter, and
Rome's finances improve. But his wife secretly lusts for the nobleman
Appius Silanus and is determined to seduce him. Her cunning
manipulations lead to an attempt on the life of Claudius--and an order
for the death of Appius.
While Claudius leads his army in Britain, his wife organizes a
tournament of sex, challenging the Guild of Prostitutes to provide a
champion to compete with her. Claudius returns from his campaign
victorious, but his wife's infidelities have made a fool of him. When she
cuckolds him by "marrying" another man in a Bacchanalian feast, his
public humiliation is complete. After consulting with his advisers,
Claudius signs a warrant for his wife's execution.
Claudius is persuaded to remarry for his children's sake. He takes
Agrippinilla, the most corrupt woman in Rome and the secret lover of
his key advisor, as his bride. Claudius wants only to make use of her
brilliant mind, while she longs for a position of power. The epic story of
his family's history he has been writing is now complete. Knowing the
prophesy that her son, Nero, will be Rome's last monarch, Claudius is
ready to meet his death when his wife poisons him.

As in "middle class," "working class," "upper class." It's the 800pound gorilla in American life that most Americans don't think about:
how do income, family background, education, attitudes, aspirations,

Story of a teenage boy's friendship with a troubled girl; set in a small
town in Australia in the early 1960's.
Police investigating an exploded boat on a San Pedro pier discover 27
bodies and $91 million worth of drug money. The only survivors are a
severely burned Hungarian terrorist and Roger Kint, a crippled conman. Reluctantly, Kint is pressured into explaining what happened on
the boat. His story begins six weeks earlier with five criminals being
dragged in by New York police desperate for suspects in a truck high
jacking, and ends with the possible identification of a criminal
mastermind.
The percentage of Americans living beyond age 70 is increasing, and
there’s growing concern that these people are also at risk for problems
related to drinking alcohol and prescription drug misuse. As the body
ages, tolerance to alcohol decreases. At the same time, many people
often have multiple prescriptions for medications that, when combined,
can cause problems. This program profiles older Americans dealing
with these issues, and shows some innovative programs created
specifically for the elderly. Experts include James Campbell, MD,
Chairperson for Family Medicine and Director of the Geriatric Center at
Metro Health Medical Center in Cleveland, Ohio and Carol Colleran
Egan, CAP, ICADC, Director of Older Adult Services for HanleyHazelden Center in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Description
As settlers expanded westward across North America, they ignored or
abrogated numerous treaties reserving land for America's native
inhabitants. In the resulting bloodshed, native Americans won some
battles but lost the war.
The stories of Native American chiefs, of Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull
and their great battles, are legendary. The events at Wounded Knee in
1973 demonstrate that the conflicts of the past have yet to be resolved.

One or Many Cultures?
Anglo-Americans tend to lump Hispanics together, forgetting that the
category covers a wide range of cultural backgrounds. Mexican culture
is different from Puerto Rican culture, and so on. In this program, three
Hispanic Americans - New York Justice Frank Torres, a Puerto Rican;
Cuban-born former Miami mayor Xavier Suarez; and Mexican
restaurateur Gordino Velasco - discuss what unites and divides the
various groups. The Puerto Rican perception of themselves as voting
residents of a U.S. commonwealth is compared to the first-generation
Cuban perception of themselves as Cuban citizens in exile. Velasco
discusses problems related to Mexican immigration in California.
Journalist Felipe Luciano stresses the importance of voting as a means
of achieving common political goals. Hosted by actor Hector Elizondo.

This program examines how second-generation Hispanics are adapting
to American society, and how they are maintaining their Latino roots
while assimilating into the American cultural mainstream. A variety of
famous and everyday Hispanic Americans are interviewed, including
pop film director Richard Rodriquez. Hispanics from doctors and police
officers to comedians, fashion designers, and rock stars discuss the
continuing role of family, and the ongoing battles with ethnic
stereotyping.
In this program, Geraldo Rivera and a host of Hispanic American
executives discuss how they overcame racial and financial
discrimination to turn their fledgling businesses into million-dollar
corporations. The executives include construction mogul Linda
Alvarado, owner of the Colorado Rockies baseball team; the developer
of the Simpsons and Garfield cartoon programs; the owner of Dial-aMattress; and others. Executives from Chase Manhattan Bank speak
candidly about the practice of loan discrimination against Hispanic
minorities. Measures being taken to counter inequities are examined.

Economic development issues, politics, and human rights are featured
in this program. The first segment details the 35-year reign of terror
under dictator General Alfredo Stroessner, and the country’s efforts to
forget its painful political past. The second segment shows how the
country provides economic assistance to its hordes of street vendors. A
third segment details the plight of the Pai Indians, and how devastation
of the Amazon forest is depriving them of life resources.
During the 1980s, the myth of struggle crowned by success was
revived. This program explores the societal impact of Reaganomics,
which was beneficial to some and detrimental to others. While John
Gage helped pioneer the Internet as director of Sun Microsystems and
Gregg Manoff found peace in a medical practice serving the poor,
times got harder for the Wolfords, who made a fortune and then went
bankrupt when the oil industry bottomed out; the Bakers, who had five
children to support in Detroit, the automotive Rust Bowl; and the Kims,
whose search for prosperity led them to L.A., where their store was
looted and destroyed in the Rodney King riots. But in good times and
bad, their uniquely American faith in the future has endured. Not

Party line on the one hand and the dissidents on the other, the program
seeks to show how ordinary people live out ordinary lives so close to
the U.S. and yet so far.
Spanish is the second language of the United States, and for many
living in America, it is their first language. This program examines the
influence of Mexican culture in the U.S. and the debate in Mexico about
the Anglicization of Spanish. Mexico’s multicultural heritage is explored,
along with the pervasiveness of Spanish today.

Songs Of The Homeland
History of Tejano Music
When Mexicans come to the U.S. they bring with them their love of
music. Over the years, traditional Mexican sounds have melded with
U.S. musical styles, forming the Tejano sound, popularized by the late
singer Selena. Steeped in emotion and peppered with the staccato
sounds of the button accordion, this compelling documentary
illuminates the rich history and evolution of Tejano music in the U.S.
within the context of the history of the Chicano people. Narrated by
Mexican-American music legend Freddy Fender, of the Texas
Tornadoes, it takes us on a rollicking tour throughout Texas, capturing
the essence of this popular music trend.

Description
To show the process and the progressive, does/time drug effects on
the cells of the different functional areas of the brain, from the first use
to fatal overdose.
The world of microorganisms is a dynamic one, and all other life forms
depend on microbial metabolic activity. Recent genetic research has
uncovered only about one percent of the microbes that remain to be
discovered.
All cellular organisms - prokaryotic and eukaryotic - share basic
chemical similarities. Out of these similarities, however, emerge diverse
patterns of cell assembly. Students encounter the tools to understand
various cell types and their relationship to noncell entities such as
viruses.
The metabolic pathways that produce energy create important
environmental transformations. Although living organisms have diverse
ways of meeting their energy needs, there is an amazing similarity
between all life forms as they carry out metabolism directed to the
construction and use of necessary biological molecules.
DNA is central to cell activity, replicating with great fidelity and carrying
the information for all proteins. Organisms also regulate the products
made from genes in an effort to conserve energy and adapt to new
environments.
Microbial populations achieve genetic diversity through horizontal gene
transfer. Bacteria may transfer genes from one to another by
conjugation, transformation, or transduction. Scientists often exploit
these processes through recombinant DNA.
Recent genetic techniques have led to new theories of evolution and
the relationships between organisms. Students examine this "evolution
revolution," using molecular sequences to trace the phylogenetic
relationships of microbial life. Both the big picture of microbial evolution
and the methods necessary for determining molecular phylogenies are
examined.
What is the relationship between the bacteria, archaea, and eukaryote
branches of the tree of life, with their startling variety of organisms?
Students see comparisons of organisms in their natural habitats and
examine ways of studying these organisms in those habitats and in the
laboratory.
Humans and all life forms depend on microorganisms as the essential
processors of oxygen, mineral nutrients for plant growth, and waste
materials. Here we investigate some of the important environments
dominated by microbes and how their presence is essential for human
life.

The Rhine From Mainz To Cologne
Description
The parents, George and Lydia Hadley, become frightened by the
images in the nursery, which has taken on the appearance of an
African veldt, replete with lions and a watering hole that their children
Wendy and Peter have made with their mind. While the nursery is
apparently some sort of virtual reality meant to stimulate all senses in
response to thought, the parents become unsettled by the realistic
sense of the veldt, especially an old wallet of George's which he finds
chewed and smeared with blood and saliva, and screaming sounds
which sound familiar to George and Lydia. Due to his unsettlement, he
decrees that they will 'shut off' the house, which would mean they would
have to work, as well as doing things such as walking up and down
stairs, brushing their own teeth, and tying their own shoes. While
George is supported in his decision by their psychologist, David
McClean, he is vehemently opposed by his children, Wendy and Peteras McClean explains, the children have effectively replaced their
parents with the nursery, and George's attempts to bring them back to
reality have been vilified in their minds. In the conclusion of the story,
the parents enter the nursery alone, see lions approaching, and

This episode
highlights
Japan’s
first contacts with the West in the 16th
century. The Portuguese, and other Europeans, brought two important
things with them: guns and Christianity. This was the beginning of many
great changes in Japanese life.
The signing of a commercial treaty with the United States threw Japan
into a period of internal political dissension. The years 1854-1868 were
a period of warring factions and shifting allegiances which threatened
several times to break into civil war. Two popular slogans characterize
the period: “Expel the barbarians” and “Revere the emperor.”
This program looks at the ways in which Japan effected the transition
from a feudal state to a major world power during the reign of the Meiji
Emperor in the last half of the nineteenth century. A new generation of
young leaders took over and pushed for the development of Japan into
a strong, centralized, and modernized nation, based on European
models. Their guiding motto was “a rich country and strong military”
and their crowning achievement was the Constitution of 1889.

Of the People
Description
Through much of the Meiji Period (1868-1912), the Japanese
government was experimenting with reforms and looking to Western
models for ideas. The feudal class system gradually gave way to such
modern ideas as compulsory education, industrialization and
parliamentary government
The program examines the major political and social developments of
the Taisho Period, (1912-1945). For 20 years popular parties, working
through the parliament, dominated politics. But during the 1920s, the
military became restive and civilian political authority lost power in the
face of serious problems.
After the conquest of Manchuria in 1931, the military slowly expanded
its control over the civil government. This program continued Japanese
expansion and Chinese resistance led to the outbreak of war between
the two in July 1937.
This episode describes the great political, economic and social
changes that created a new Japanese society from the rubble of war.
Under the leadership of General Douglas MacArthur, the Supreme
Commander of Allied Powers, the Occupation undertook a wholesale
reform of Japan’s political, social and economic structure. A demand
for Japanese goods sparked an accelerating economic recovery, which
soon grew into what was regarded as an “economic miracle.”
During the 1960s, Japan’s economic growth put it on an equal footing
with the world’s developed nations. But the boom has not been without
problems.
This episode discusses the organization of Japanese business. Japan
is dependent on the outside world for most of its energy and raw
materials and a large part of its food; therefore, its economic success
has been almost entirely the product of its one great asset — its
creative and hardworking people.
The episode explores some of the problems facing Japan: a high
inflation rate, triggered by the Arab oil embargo; increased pressure
from other industrial countries to provide a more equitable trading
system; increasing urban crowding and industrial pollution which
threatened both public health and agricultural production; and an
internal system which perpetuates discrepancies between big business
and small.
Of the People describes the organization and structure of the
government of Japan, and the ways the major political institutions work.
The program also looks at the Liberal Democratic Party, formed in
1955 and majority party since World War II.

Description
The previous episode describes the primary institutions of the
Japanese government. This program takes a look at how those
institutions fit into the Japanese cultural tradition and how they affect
the people who work within them.
Even though most Japanese now live in urban communities, resulting
in changes in life-style, many of the older social traits of the Japanese
continue, even if in modified form. This program describes
contemporary Japanese social organization.
This episode studies the avenues of success that are available to the
Japanese and the barriers that block these avenues to many. Most
people achieve their place in society through their educational
achievements, but several groups of people are still discriminated
against, as this program shows.
Japanese life today is a blend of traditional styles and modern mass
living. This program looks at the people who live along the Hankyu
commuting lines, who are very modern, urbane, and yet distinctively
Japanese.
This final program of the series takes a more intimate look at the
contemporary life by following the daily routines of three different
Japanese families: those of a farmer, a small independent
businessman, and a middle-management worker in a small company.

Primary focus was on images of women in our music videos and how
their sexuality is portrayed. how does this portrayal of women’s
sexuality affect our societies own ideas about sexuality? - videos were
created as advertisements to sell CD’s, but now what else are they
trying to sell? - It is difficult to tell the difference between music and
commercials nowadays. Both use sex to sell their products. - the
difference between music videos and commercials is that while
commercials are mostly filled with clutter, music videos use powerful,
shocking sexual imagery to break through that clutter and grab the full
attention of the viewer.
"Does TV Kill?" is a probing examination of what is known about TV's

STRIVE is a nationally recognized workforce initiative committed to
individual and community empowerment through employment. The
STRIVE employment model was introduced in New York in 1984. The
characteristics that set the model apart are its five weeks of intensive
attitudinal training coupled with its two years of graduate follow-up.
Together, these produce low costs, fast entry into the workforce, and
high job retention rates. Because of the effectiveness of this approach,
STRIVE has been featured on "60 Minutes " three times since 1997.
Elements of the model have been widely adopted throughout the
employment field in the United States.

Non-linear editing for film and television postproduction is a modern
editing method which involves being able to access any frame in a
video clip with the same ease as any other. This method is similar in
concept to the "cut and paste" technique used in film editing from the
beginning. However, when working with film, it is a destructive process,
as the actual film negative must be cut. Non-linear, non-destructive
methods began to appear with the introduction of digital video
technology.

The Roots of Disbelief
Description
A survey of Christian church history during the Middle Ages.
Juxtaposes the great religious faith and architectural and artistic
achievements of this period with its abject poverty and ignorance. A
constant obsession with death and suffering was reflected in
representations of the crucifixion and grotesque images of demons and
the damned which adorned the cathedrals. St. Francis of Assisi
rejected the opulence of the Church as he sought to express reverence
and gratitude for the world God had created. He taught the virtues of
simplicity and poverty and established a new order, the Franciscans,
based on these beliefs.
Focuses on the conflicts that arose in Europe between Christians and
non-Christians, culminating in the expulsion of the Jews from Spain.
Holy sites and land disputes between Muslims, Christians and Jews
prevailed.
Focuses on Christian church history during the Renaissance, following
the Council of Constance during which an emperor deposed three
Popes and arranged the choice of a fourth. In 1417, Martin V moved
the seat of the popes from Florence to a decayed Rome. He began a
restoration of the ancient capital which would, over two centuries,
transform it into the most impressive city in Europe. As Rome grew in
splendor, so did the papacy. Pope Julius II extended his powers to the
limit.
Surveys the history of the Reformation, focusing on developments
within the Christian church.
Focuses on the Jesuits and their role in spreading the Catholic faith in
the wake of the Reformation. Discusses their significance in

Focuses on the growth during the Reformation of radical religious sects
which existed outside the established church order. Explains that many
emigrated to found new societies in North America, including the
Pilgrims.
Contrasts the two strands of Christianity that emerged in the 18th
century--that of the educated classes and that of revivalist enthusiasm.
Discusses the Christian revival of the 19th century, exemplified by the
spread of missionary activity in Europe's industrial slums and in the
lands of the new colonial empire.
Examines the many causes for today's indifference to Christianity,
asserting that the major reasons are the advance of science and

Description
A rotating road wheel allows the driver to maintain steering control
under heavy braking, by preventing a locked wheel or skid, and
allowing the wheel to continue to forward roll and create lateral control,
as directed by driver steering inputs. Disadvantages of the system
include increased braking distances under some limited circumstances
(ice, snow, gravel, "soft" surfaces), and the creation of a "false sense of
security" among drivers who do not understand the operation, and
limitations of ABS.
anti-lock braking system (ABS) (translated from German, A ntiB lockier S ystem ) is a safety system on motor vehicles which prevents
the wheels from locking while braking.
Since it came into widespread use in production cars (with "version 2"
in 1978), ABS has made considerable progress. Recent versions not
only handle the ABS function itself (i.e. preventing wheel locking under
braking), but also electronic control of the front-to-rear bias known as
electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD), traction control system (TCS
or ASR), an "emergency" brake assist (BA, EBA or HBA), and
electronic stability control (ESP, ESC or DSC), amongst others.
Describes automatic transmission fluids, gears and gear lubricants,
greases and various other lubricants.

Air Bag, safety device consisting of a large fabric bag that fills with air
and provides protection for the head and upper body of an occupant of
a motor vehicle during a collision. In head-on collisions, drivers and
passengers are thrown forward inside the vehicles. When an air bag is
activated, or deployed, it inflates instantly and creates a firm barrier that
counters the forward motion of the driver or the front-seat passenger.
Air bags are designed to prevent the driver or front-seat passenger
from hitting the windshield or dashboard of the vehicle, thereby
eliminating injuries or reducing their severity. An air bag is also known
as a supplemental restraint system (SRS), or a supplemental inflatable
restraint (SIR). Air bags are designed to work in conjunction with seat
belts. However, an air bag alone can provide some protection for a
vehicle occupant who is not wearing a seat belt.

Conflict shifts people's focus away from work and the basic goals of the
team, department and organization. It negatively impacts productivity,
morale and ultimately, results. Surveys show that managers now
spend about 20 percent of their time on conflict resolution. And, as
employees are asked to communicate with a greater variety of people,
they need their own conflict management skills. Based on the worldfamous Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument, this program offers
a proven method for recognizing and resolving conflict. Dramatic

you? That's one reason people from different cultures, generations,
skin colors, and physical abilities often struggle to communicate. This
video shows how to overcome this communication barrier.
A Question of Genes: Inherited Risks
A Question of Genes: Inherited Risks follows the personal journey of
individuals and families who confront questions about genetic testing.
The stories are told without narration, by the participants themselves-allowing the patient, family or physician to speak directly to the viewer
about the profound personal and emotional effects of learning genetic
information.

Internauts
In education the impetus for access to the Internet has come from the
grass roots up--not from the top down. This film examines schools,
educators, librarians, homeschoolers and parents who are taking the
lead in introducing the Internet to students. As an example of "real
time" instruction it follows the Polar Bridge Expedition of 1988 in which
students daily tracked the experiences and successes of the ski team
on their journey to the North Pole.
In cyberspace new audio Net technologies promise to bring the world's
chorus to all. With a click of the mouse, one can tune into radio stations
on other continents and go to archives for samples of music from all
walks of life. This film examines the new audio technologies now in use
on the Internet by profiling the development of the websites Virtual
Radio and RealAudio.
Who is really using the Internet? Is it just the young, and are they
mostly men? Are older people finding it too frustrating? What about
their habits? In this episode of the PBS series, Life on the Internet:
Internauts, Jim Pitkow, a grad student at Georgia Tech, developed a
survey in 1994 to find out just who was on the Internet. With the help of
Colleen Kehoe, a fellow student, he has turned the survey into the most
comprehensive documention of web use. It is administered every six
months, and provides an invaluable source of information about the
population of the Internet.

riches can be full of land mines. In this episode of the PBS series,
guest commentators include Jerry Yang and David Filo of Yahoo fame,
Rosalind Resnick of Interactive Publishing Alert, and Mark Manasee of
the Millicent system, a potentially lucrative enterprise. They compare
notes and share their experiences in Life on the Internet: Net Profits.

discussions, debates, and other exchanges of information without
leaving their homes. It is possible to argue with someone on the other
side of the world from the safety of an easy chair, as Life on the

Cyber Secrets
One of the biggest concerns of the Internet has been the issue of
privacy. Individuals generally do not want their personal
communications to be available to the public, and Phil Zimmerman has
been determined to protect that privacy. He is the person behind Pretty
Good Privacy, an encryption program that keeps personal email from
being read by others. However, he became the target for government
investigations, as various U.S. agencies felt that he was a threat to
national security. Life on the Internet: Cyber Secrets discusses the
issues with Zimmerman, who feels that Americans have a right to
privacy.

While it is true that there is a wealth of information on any subject on
the Internet, locating exactly what is needed can be a frustrating
experience. Many search engines return hundreds of thousands of
entries in response to a query, and wading through the possibilities can
take up enormous amounts of time. Life on the Internet 2.0: Finding
Things explores the problems the creators of search engines
encounter, and their plans for the future. Michael Mauldin of Lycos and
Alan Emtage of Bunyip discuss the challenges of pinpointing relevant
information on the Internet.

Description
In this episode of the PBS series, the works of individuals who have
ventured into the entertainment arena of the Internet are examined.
Two critics of the Internet world, Carl Steadman and Joey Anuff are the
proprietors of Suck.com, an online magazine that has gained a large
following among the inner circles of the young and connected. The
Brain Opera allowed people to interact with a performance produced by
Tod Machover of MIT's Media Lab. Sheri Herman's daily Internet soap
opera The Spot was watched by a huge following of devoted fans.
The vast archives of recipes available on the Internet are proof that
many of the wired are also fanatical about food. The array of foods
from all around the world is equally impressive, as hard-to-locate items
turn up on the screens of connected consumers. Offerings of cooking
utensils, pots and pans, and other accessories abound. Life on the
Internet 2.0: Cyber Gourmet takes a look at the choices open to those
who are interested in this area. Guests include Paolo Monti, Rob
Greehow, Maria Lutz, and Betsy Couch.
To young users, it seems as if there has always been an Internet. It is
very much a part of their world, and is used to communicate with one
another, to research school papers, and to seek homework help.
Entertainment flows from it, with music, movies, and games to
download. In Life on the Internet 2.0: Young, Smart and On-Line, three
young people are profiled, and the ways in which they interact with the
Internet are described. For Tom Williams, Monika Bough, and
Benjamin Carson the Internet is their playground and workplace.
The Internet is changing the job market. Traditional ways to find work,
and to advertise for work, have undergone drastic transformations. In
Life on the Internet 2.0 Net Work, three examples of how the Internet
has influenced the working world are offered. Ken Morrill displayed his
knowledge of HTML by putting his resume on the web, and got a job
without too much experience. In Iceland, Einar Baragson abandoned
his old fishing job for designing web pages. Jobtrak's site helps both
students and prospective employers by recruiting from universities.

a much wider audience than ever before. Virtual destinations featuring
art are experiencing a tremendous growth in visitors. Unlike a real
gallery, there are no limits to wall space, and works that once were
relegated to backroom storage can now be seen. Life on the Internet

Searching For a Cure
n one of the best uses of the medium, researchers on the Human
Genome Project put up their data on the Internet so it can be accessed
by colleagues. Results are achieved faster when valuable information is
available instantly, and nowhere is this more important than in the field
of medical research. Someday, through their collaborative work, there
may be cures for genetic disorders, such as the one that afflicts the
daughter of Stephanie St. Pierre. St. Pierre established a support group
on the Internet where parents can exchange information about the
disease, and help each other cope.

The dream of some of the best minds in computing is the concept of
invisibility, or the seamless meshing of life, computers, and the Internet.
Is the idea so farfetched? Will the Internet be so much a part of
existence that it will cease to be noticed? Reid Simmons, Roy Want,
and Mark Weiser think so, and their work reflects their hopes and
aspirations. Simmons' work with the robot Xavier at Carnegie Mellon
University allows an Internet user to control the robot from anywhere in
the world. Weiser and Want of Xerox Research work with a concept
known as ubiquitous computing.
There are new ways of getting together with friends, family, and new
acquaintances on the Internet, as virtual communities spring up. Even
though the participants do not meet face-to-face, the encounters can
be stimulating and entertaining. Life on the Internet 2.0 Virtual
Neighbors also looks at chat groups who base their premise on a game
like Dungeons and Dragons: the MUDS and MOOS. The ease with
which these communities operate have encouraged more users to join,
and common interests have been the basis for many new friendships.
Commentary is provided by MIT's Sherry Turkle.

at some of the ways in which security issues are dealt with. A
continuing concern that many individuals have is the safety of credit
card transactions as they shop online. There is room for abuse on the
Internet since people can conceal their real identities and make false
claims. Three guests share their concerns for secure transactions:
Susan Goeldner of Fed Ex, Tom Longstaff of CERT, and Steve
Crocker of Cybercash.

The topic of intellectual property is a challenging issue on the Internet,
as individuals and corporations alike confront problems that have not
existed before. Life on the Internet 2.0 Copyright is an account of the
kind of debates that have arisen when one group feels that another
might be infringing on their rights. Because U.S. copyright laws were
formulated before the Internet, there are gray areas that are not
addressed. As the debates continue, threatened by lawsuits, the
possibility appears likely that completely new copyright laws need to be
established for the Internet.
How difficult is it to find an old friend on the Internet? Is it fairly easy to
look up long-lost relatives for a family tree project? What about an old
girlfriend whose name changed after she married? Life on the Internet
2.0 Finding People examines some methods for finding individuals,
some more successful than others. Naveen Jain of Infospace and Alan
Emtage of Bunyip are both involved in evolving better ways to help
people find one another. The program also looks at Bonnie Borchert's
attempts to find her biological parents and the bittersweet results.

This three-tape set from PBS focuses on how humans age, what
scientists are learning about the aging process, and how we all might
be facing a much longer future than ever believed possible. The first
documentary deals with the natural history of aging and focuses on a
physician who is studying people who live to be 100 in an effort to
understand how genetics and lifestyle combine to produce long lives.
Scientists are also seen studying animals, including turtles and apes,
as they age. The mechanisms of aging and efforts to "turn back the
clock" are the focus of the second video, which features a segment on
a doctor in his 70s whose studies of mice on a "calorie restricted" diet
led him to put himself and his daughter on the same diet. The third
installment interviews active and very capable people of advanced age,
such as members of the Harlem Jazz Legends band who are in their
80s. In interviews, seniors talk about coping with mental problems
associated with aging, such as memory loss. This is a fascinating topic,

Bradshaw (Family Secrets, LJ 1/95), a well-known speaker and author
on such topics as addiction, recovery, and spirituality, has released a
revised version of John Bradshaw: On Family, which first accompanied
his 1984 television series. In this edition, he speaks out on the need for
democracy within the family, as opposed to a patriarchal model of
family relations. Throughout, Bradshaw refers to earlier models of child
rearing as "poisonous pedagogy," and he is deeply committed to
changing parenting within today's families and helping adults damaged
by the parenting they received to rebuild their self-esteem. He uses
many of the techniques of Adult Children of Alcoholics and similar
groups in helping the reader identify problems and repair damage.
Earlier editions of this book have sold more than a million copies, so
public libraries will certainly have a demand for this title. Kay L. Brodie,

Dance In America - American Ballet theatre
Now
Description
This is a dazzling display of choreographic and dancing virtuosity,
presenting nearly 20 soloists and an excellent precise corps in
traditional and modern ballet highlights. The American Ballet Theatre is
a thoroughly international company, "bringing together," as Natalia
Makarova says in an introduction, "the best dancers and
choreographers from all over the world." That ambitious claim is fully
justified by brilliant performances, ranging from Sleeping Beauty and
Swan Lake to the world premiere of Nacho Duato's postmodern
Remanso for three rather athletic male dancers, Anthony Tudor's
exquisite The Leaves Are Fading, the sentimental Cruel World of
James Kudelka, and the dreamlike Balcony Scene from Sir Kenneth
MacMillan's (and Prokofiev's) Romeo and Juliet. Most of the numbers
are pas de deux; women are spotlighted (notably Susan Jaffe, Amanda
McKerrow, and Julie Kent), but men get in some impressive steps
besides doing the heavy lifting. --Joe McLellan

"12 Angry Men" focuses on a jury's deliberations in a capital murder
case. A 12-man jury is sent to begin deliberations in the first-degree
murder trial of an 18-year-old Latino accused in the stabbing death of
his father, where a guilty verdict means an automatic death sentence.
The case appears to be open-and-shut: The defendant has a weak
alibi; a knife he claimed to have lost is found at the murder scene; and
several witnesses either heard screaming, saw the killing or the boy
fleeing the scene. Eleven of the jurors immediately vote guilty; only
Juror No. 8 (Mr. Davis) casts a not guilty vote. At first Mr. Davis' bases
his vote more so for the sake of discussion after all, the jurors must
believe beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant is guilty. As the
deliberations unfold, the story quickly becomes a study of the jurors'
complex personalities (which range from wise, bright and empathetic to
arrogant, prejudiced and merciless), preconceptions, backgrounds and
interactions. That provides the backdrop to Mr. Davis' attempts in
convincing the other jurors that a "not guilty" verdict might be
appropriate. Written by Brian Rathjen

The story contrasts commonplace details of contemporary life with a
barbaric ritual known as the "lottery." The setting is a small American
town (population of approximately 300 and growing) where the locals
display a strange and somber mood, from which unusual things can
evidently be observed, like children gathering stones, as they assemble
June 27 for their annual lottery. After the head of each family draws a
small piece of paper, one slip with a black spot indicates the
Hutchinson family has been chosen. When each member of that family
draws again to see which family member "wins," Tessie Hutchinson is
the final choice. She is then stoned to death by everyone present,
including her own family, as well as both the young boys and young
girls as a sacrifice to ensure a good harvest, according to the belief of
the community.

of demonstrators, the murder of Medgar Evers, the bombing of the
Baptist church in Birmingham, sit-ins and protests, the Montgomery
march, the Mississippi Freedom march, Martin Luther King, Jr.’s
famous "I Have a Dream" and "I Have Been to the Mountaintop"
speeches, his funeral, and President Johnson’s signing of the Civil

Flag Burning and the First Amendment
A brief narrative description of the journal article, document, or

videotape "For Which It Stands: Flag Burning and the First
Amendment." The videotape and teacher's guide should help students
to: (1) understand the emotion and significance of the flag-burning
issue; (2) examine the free speech aspect of the First Amendment of
the Bill of Rights; (3) evaluate the response of government officials to
the Supreme Court's decision that a Texas law forbidding the
desecration of the flag violated the free speech protections of the First
Amendment and the debate over amending the Constitution to prevent
flag burning; and (4) compare and contrast the many perspectives
people have on patriotism, protest, and free speech. The guide
contains four activities that involve class discussions and small-group
work. The active learning approach encourages students to go beyond
recognition or knowledge of facts to begin analyzing, synthesizing, and
evaluating the issues and concepts being studied. (LH)

Description
This video explores the racial legacies and social determinants shaping
the health of the nations' people. This national town meeting examines
pertinent research case studies, community action strategies, and
innovative learning approaches to eliminating health disparities.
Community activists and leaders of higher education and public health
address key questions such as: Is health a right for all, or a privilege for
some? What myths and concepts prevent us from addressing the root
causes of ill health? A town meeting held January 19, 2000 in
Washington, D.C.
Russia at the end of the millennium is the story of the dissolution of a
superpower, the tragic result of a social experiment gone wrong. After
decades of neglect, mismanagement and corruption, the country faces
an infrastructure on the verge of collapse, a workforce with skills not
relevant in today's world economy and a financial system in ruins. The
program looks at what lies ahead for a people betrayed by the Czar,
communism and capitalism.

While many other communities were beginning to pursue a sector-bysector approach, focus groups in our area suggested that Jackson
needed to launch an ongoing process of community-wide improvement.
The 1993 teleconference served as that launch, both by integrating the
concepts of systems thinking, learning communities, and ecology with
TQM, and by organizing citizens to engage in collective thinking about
Jackson's preferred future. Citizens from all walks of life, called
conveners, agreed to play an active role in bringing other citizens to the
table. At the same time, conversations began with the W.K. Kellogg
Foundation about a project that would continue Jackson's process and
engage Jackson in a learning exchange with four other communities.
Develop, take to practice and learn from a community development
process for Jackson County, based in five streams of theory and

Othello, the Moor of Venice is a tragedy by William Shakespeare,
believed to have been written in approximately 1603, and based on the
Italian short story "Un Capitano Moro" (A Moorish Captain) by Cinthio (a
disciple of Boccaccio) first published in 1565. The work revolves
around four central characters: Othello, a Moorish general in the
Venetian army; his wife Desdemona; his lieutenant, Cassio; and his
trusted ensign Iago. Because of its varied themes — racism, love,
jealousy and betrayal — Othello remains relevant to the present day
and is often performed in professional and community theatres alike.
The play has also been the basis for numerous operatic, film and
literary adaptations. The play opens with Roderigo, a rich and dissolute
gentleman, complaining to Iago, a high-ranking soldier, that Iago has
not told him about the secret marriage between Desdemona, the
daughter of a Senator named Brabantio, and Othello, a Moorish
general in the Venetian army. He is upset by this development because
he lusts for Desdemona and has previously asked her father for her
hand in marriage. Iago is upset with Othello for promoting a younger

officer's expectation of a "well-founded fear," it is referred to an

It took all of human history until 1800 for the world’s population to reach
its first billion. Now we add a new billion nearly every dozen years. Over
the next half century, 98 percent of that growth will take place in our
planet's poorest regions. And as the global total swells to nearly 9
billion by 2050, the social and environmental strains will be enormous.
Through vivid personal stories, The People Paradox reveals many
startling trends. In Japan, Europe and Russia, birth rates are shrinking
and the population is aging. But in parts of India and Africa, more than
half of the still growing population is under 25. The surprising
conclusion: world population is now careening in two dramatically
different directions. The second hour, China Revs Up, is an insider’s
look at China’s booming economy and its growing impact on the
environment. What will happen as China follows America’s affluent
lifestyle and begins to rival the U.S. as the world’s biggest polluter? In
this groundbreaking, worldwide investigation of humanity’s future,
NOVA shows how decisions made now will change the fate of everyone
over the next fifty years.
Chronicles the Rwandan genocide of 1993, one of the worst atrocities
of the 20th century. Includes interviews with key government officials,

Winner of an Independent Spirit Award and named Best Documentary
at the San Francisco International Film Festival, LOST BOYS OF
SUDAN follows two teenage Sudanese refugees on an extraordinary
journey from Africa to America, offering a gripping and sobering peek
into the myth of the American Dream. In the late ‘80s, Islamic
fundamentalists in Sudan waged war on the country’s separatists,
leaving behind over 20,000 male orphans, otherwise known as "lost
boys." For those who survived this traumatic ordeal and found their way
to refugee camps, som were chosen to participate in a resettlement
program in America--a distant place so presumably full of hope and
opportunity that the Sudanese sometimes call it Heaven. But what if a
free ticket to "Heaven" turned out to be anything but? Sidestepping
conventional voice-over narration in favor of real-time, close-quarters
poignancy, LOST BOYS OF SUDAN focuses on Santino and Peter,
members of the Dinka tribe, during their first life-altering year in the
United States. Safe at last from physical danger--but a world away from
home--the boys must grapple with extreme cultural differences as they
come to understand both the abundance and alienation of
This program is an excellent survey of the history of mass media.
Academic and industry experts discuss the invention and impact of the
printing press, telegraph, and telephone, all of which have allowed
information to be easily transmitted over great distances. Mass media
as it is currently evolving is also examined in depth. During the 1920s
and 30s, radio dominated entertainment and the news and changed
America’s social habits. The advent of broadcast television in the 1950s
and the rise of the Big Three networks further shaped America’s
culture. In the 80s and into the 90s, broadcast TV audience-share has
declined due to cable and satellite television, VCRs, and Nintendo, and
broadcasting has yielded to narrowcasting. Today, globalization and
technological convergence are redefining the boundaries of
communications. Where is all this leading the media industry? Only

The Lumière brothers and Thomas Edison would definitely be
impressed if they could see how far the medium created with the
invention of the movie camera has evolved. This program examines the
history of film, from its beginnings in the late 19th century to the
invention of VCRs. Filmmaking’s roots as an entertainment and
storytelling medium are examined, along with the emergence of
Hollywood, the studio star system, and birth of the talkies. Film industry
regulation, including censorship, is also discussed, along with the
blacklist and competition from cable and broadcast television.

Radio History
This program tells the complete story of radio, from its roots in
Marconi’s wireless telegraphy and the invention of the vacuum tube by
Lee De Forest, to its heyday in the 1930s and subsequent upstaging by
television in a battle for audience-share. Academic experts discuss the
impact of early innovators like Frank Conrad of station KDKA,
Pittsburgh, who broadcasted from his garage; the power of
personalities to influence mass audiences, citing FDR, Edward R.
Murrow, and Orson Welles as examples; radio’s role as a vehicle for
delivering mass audiences to advertisers; and the superior ability of the
radio to entertain and actively engage listeners in the "theater of the
mind." This program provides an intriguing look at America’s oncedominant mass medium.

Island of Hope, Island of Tears
Between 1892 and the early 1950s, nearly 15 million people streamed
through Ellis Island in search of a new life. Here are the stories of those
extraordinary immigrants, largely in their own poignant words. Coming
primarily from Southern and Eastern Europe, and from widely diverse
backgrounds, the émigrés represented in this remarkable volume
recount their adventures with dignity, wit, and unflagging honesty.
Among the dozens of unforgettable narrators you'll meet are a Greek
boy who, forced into the Turkish Army, escaped to the U.S. with the
help of the Russian Orthodox Church; a young Polish girl who made
the harrowing journey only to have to flee a "white slaver"; and a Czech

Who would have thought that barely three years after Europe mourned
America's loss in the tragedy of 9/11, the U.S. would find itself in a
bitter dispute with their oldest friends and allies? The Bush
administration's "go-it-alone" attitude toward terrorism alienated a lot of
Europeans. While a few heads of state, like Britain's Tony Blair, still
support U.S. policies in Iraq, that support now threatens their own
political futures and the viability of their governments. As seen in Spain
and elsewhere, an increasingly vehement antipathy among the people
of Europe towards America's actions has shown that popular sentiment
can not only influence their nations' policies, but actually topple
governments. Join New York Times columnist and Pulitzer Prizewinning journalist Thomas L. Friedman as he asks world leaders,
ordinary citizens and organizers of grass routes movements the central
question: Do our longest-standing allies now hate us? With the
European Union on the threshold of redefining the global balance of
power, this continuing confrontation between the U.S. and Europe has
profound implications for the future
When we encounter people from other societies or cultures, we may
fail to understand them for many reasons, including differences in
language, values, gestures, emotional expression, norms, rituals, rules,
expectations, family background, and life experiences. This
extraordinary video shows that cross-cultural communication can be
successful if we manage to understand the powerful differences that
separate people who come from differing cultures. The video
examines 14 key facets of cross-cultural miscommunication. In each
case, the power and subtlety of cultural differences are explored and
illustrated. As the video demonstrates, culture can be like a veil that
prevents us from understanding those from other societies, and also
prevents them from understanding us. While some aspects of "culture
shock" are predictable, such as language differences, many powerful
differences are less obvious, and perhaps therefore even more "culture
shocking." Examples include dramatic differences in personal space,
patterns of touching, etiquette and ritual, the expression of emotions,
ideas about edible and delicious food, gestures, courtship patterns, and
parent-child relationships. A World of Differences: Understanding

A young, conservative black man, minding his own business, rides on
an all-but-empty subway car. The only other passenger, a blond vixen,
is looking his way and looking for trouble. Sexual tension, racial bigotry
and righteous fury collide in a razor's edge confrontation. Writer LeRoi
Jones' powerful and controversial play is faithfully adapted in this
dramatically explosive and emotionally raw film made at the height of
civil unrest in the '60s, with just as potent a message for today's
audiences. Al Freeman, Jr. (Malcolm X) and two times Academy Awardnominee Shirley Knight (The Dark at the Top of the Stairs) sear the
screen in this highly acclaimed award-winner from Oscar-nominated
director Anthony Harvey (The Lion in Winter), with an ominously
knowing score by Academy Award winner John Barry (Dances with
Wolves).
Woody Allen as a worker ant with an inferiority complex? Sylvester
Stallone as an affable soldier ant who discovers that digging tunnels is
cool? The animation playground we all knew so well is turning into a
theme park full of in-jokes for grownups. Antz explores age-old topics
(one person--err, insect--can make a difference, individuality and social
responsibility must exist side by side, war is hell) with comic asides and
Woody Allen's funniest quips this side of PG (adults will chuckle at the
socialist slogans bandied about as he campaigns for workers' rights).
Sharon Stone voices the rebellious princess with a fun-loving streak
that doesn't quite overcome her royal bearing and court training, but
she can learn. Gene Hackman is all teeth (ants have teeth?) and
menacing grins as the Army general plotting insect-icide. This bug'seye view of life on Earth gives Allen's neurotic nonconformist an epic
adventure of microscopic proportions: a devastating war with a termite
colony, an odyssey to the fabled land of plenty (a picnic ground), and a
race to save his fellow workers from certain death. Other voices include

What the Bleep Do We Know?
The unlikeliest cult hit of 2004 was What the (Bleep) Do We Know, a
lecture on mysticism and science mixed into a sort-of narrative. Marlee
Matlin stars in the dramatic thread, about a sourpuss photographer who
begins to question her perceptions. Interviews with quantum physics
experts and New Age authors are cut into this story, offering a vaguely
convincing (and certainly mind-provoking) theory about... well, actually,
it sounds a lot like the Power of Positive Thinking, when you get down
to it. Talking heads (not identified until film's end) include JZ Knight,
who appears in the movie channeling Ramtha, the ancient sage she
claims communicates through her (other speakers are also associated
with Knight's organization). What she says actually makes pretty good
common sense--Ramtha's wiggier notions are not included--and would
be easy to accept were it not being credited to a 35,000-year-old mystic
from Atlantis. --Robert Horton

Wings, the first movie to win an Academy Award for Best Picture and
the only silent film to win, is still remarkably enjoyable to watch. The
story is a fairly conventional one--two flyboys, both in love with the
same girl, go off to fight World War I, and male bonding and heartbreak
ensue. It's a perfectly serviceable plot, except for the key logical flaw
that both young men have inexplicably fallen in love with the boring girl
down the street and have somehow failed to notice that Clara Bow is
the girl next door. Both male leads really flew their airplanes, and the
dogfight footage is still spectacular. The main reason to watch Wings,
though, is to see the difference between an actor and a movie star.
There are many actors in the film, but only two movie stars. Clara Bow
is a treat to watch every minute she's on screen, and young Gary
Cooper in a tiny role nearly walks away with the movie, mostly by
standing there and looking dreamy. Its well worth sitting through a little
cheesy organ music for a movie this much fun. --Ali Davis

Even the most hard-hearted will get misty eyes when the elderly Irish
immigrant tells of his first view of Ellis Island and the "golden lady" in
New York Harbor. People were weeping with joy he recalls still tearing
up and he couldn't help but fall down in prayer. To newcomers in the
early 1900s the United States was a land of hopes and dreams and
Ellis Island was the gateway offering new soil for their first step. This
film--produced for and first broadcast on the History Channel-documents in full detail the life of the way station. What started out as a
modest outpost became a monumental processing center where during
its 62-year history nearly 12 million people were poked prodded tested
and graded to see if they were fit for citizenship. Those with mental or
physical illnesses were marked with chalk X's and sometimes shipped
home. Rich with personal accounts and rare footage and photos Ellis
Island is a fitting tribute to the island and the era. It takes special care
to document the shameful anti-immigrant sentiment that led to quotas
and eventually the island's ruin and closure in 1954. Never again would

Movie studios, by and large, avoid controversial subjects like race the
way you might avoid a hive of angry bees. So it's remarkable that Crash
even got made; that it's a rich, intelligent, and moving exploration of the
interlocking lives of a dozen Los Angeles residents--black, white, latino,
Asian, and Persian--is downright amazing. A politically nervous district
attorney (Brendan Fraser) and his high-strung wife (Sandra Bullock,
biting into a welcome change of pace from Miss Congeniality) get carjacked by an oddly sociological pair of young black men (Larenz Tate
and Chris "Ludacris" Bridges); a rich black T.V. director (Terrence
Howard) and his wife (Thandie Newton) get pulled over by a white
racist cop (Matt Dillon) and his reluctant partner (Ryan Phillipe); a
detective (Don Cheadle) and his Latina partner and lover (Jennifer
Esposito) investigate a white cop who shot a black cop--these are only
three of the interlocking stories that reach up and down class lines.
Writer/director Paul Haggis (who wrote the screenplay for Million Dollar
Baby) spins every character in unpredictable directions, refusing to let

I am amazed there are so few reviews of this DVD. It was the feature at
a conference I attended three years ago and watching it was an eyeopening, life-changing event. Yes, we knew about the drawbacks of
sprawl and its effects on the environment. Yada, yada. What we didn't
know about was that our entire "non-negotiable" American way of life is
perched on, if not already tipping over, the edge of collapse in the not
so distant future as a result of world-wide fossil fuel depletion, among
other things. The implications of this well-documented DVD affect
nearly every aspect of our daily lives. Every American needs to see
this. Few if any will like it. Many will discount it. But hopefully most of us
will wake-up and realize that we need to get real busy, real fast
safeguarding our own personal circumstances and electing officials at
all levels of government who recognize the impending crises we face
and have the courage to take needed action to address it. Granted the
DVD goes on a bit long on the same points and verges occasionally
into unnecessary political commentary. But what is being laid out here
bears repeating and is not a political issue. It is a survival issue. Over

subject of THE UGLY TRUTH. Viewers of the THE UGLY TRUTH will

Land of Plenty, Land of Want
Description
As the population of Planet Earth continues to grow, it is necessary to
understand the delicate balance that is needed to preserve the
environment while feeding the world's inhabitants. Students will see in
the upcoming video segments the need to find ways to reconcile
economic growth with the continued health of the land. As cities have
expanded, farmland has been lost to development. In an effort to feed
the ever-increasing population of the planet, farmers have
experimented with various methods of increasing agricultural yields.
Some of these methods, over time, have proven to be unhealthy for the
environment. Now, more than ever before, it is critical that farmers and
scientists work together to develop a sustainable agricultural system
through the effective management of Earth's natural resources.
Sustainable agriculture is the use of farming practices that will produce
food for consumption without causing harm to the environment.

Journey To Planet Earth
The State of the Planet
We begin our journey in the Arctic, an isolated and vulnerable world of
extremes. In many ways, this is the perfect place to investigate the
future health of our planet — a future conditional on how we cope with
the spread of toxic pollution. The Arctic is a place dominated by the
rhythms of nature and the seasonal patterns of migration. It's a place of
deep fiords teeming with life and remote fishing villages governed by
the endless cycle of strong tidal currents. However, the image that most
people have of the polar region — of a pristine unspoiled wilderness —
is far from accurate. The Arctic, which has very few sources of
industrial pollution, is turning into a toxic sink. In a phenomenon
scientists call the grasshopper effect, toxic pollutants released
thousands of miles to the south evaporate in the warm climate then ride
the winds until they reach the cold air of the Arctic, where they
eventually fall to the earth. Thousands of miles to the south in Tijuana,
the community of Colonia Chilpancingo suffered from a much more
local source of pollution. When it rains a nearby creek is flooded with
chemical wastes from a deserted industrial park upstream. Lead
An Investigation of the most critical questions of the 21st Century. Are

In retrospect, it seems as if the American Revolution was inevitable.
But was it? In Founding Brothers, Joseph J. Ellis reveals that many of
those truths we hold to be self-evident were actually fiercely contested
in the early days of the republic. Ellis focuses on six crucial moments in
the life of the new nation, including a secret dinner at which the seat of
the nation's capital was determined--in exchange for support of
Hamilton's financial plan; Washington's precedent-setting Farewell
Address; and the Hamilton and Burr duel. Most interesting, perhaps, is
the debate (still dividing scholars today) over the meaning of the
Revolution. In a fascinating chapter on the renewed friendship between
John Adams and Thomas Jefferson at the end of their lives, Ellis points
out the fundamental differences between the Republicans, who saw the
Revolution as a liberating act and hold the Declaration of Independence
most sacred, and the Federalists, who saw the revolution as a step in
the building of American nationhood and hold the Constitution most
dear. Throughout the text, Ellis explains the personal, face-to-face

In the early 1950's, the threat of Communism created an air of paranoia
in the United States and exploiting those fears was Senator Joseph
McCarthy of Wisconsin. However, CBS reporter 'Edward R. Murrow (I)'
and his producer Fred W. Friendly decided to take a stand and

However, their actions took a great personal toll on both men, but they

2252
Free To Choose - the Power of the Market &
the Tyranny of Control
Director Davis Guggenheim eloquently weaves the science of global
warming with Mr. Gore's personal history and lifelong commitment to
reversing the effects of global climate change. A longtime advocate for
the environment, Gore presents a wide array of facts and information in
a thoughtful and compelling way. "Al Gore strips his presentations of
politics, laying out the facts for the audience to draw their own
conclusions in a charming, funny and engaging style, and by the end
has everyone on the edge of their seats, gripped by his haunting
message," said Guggenheim. An Inconvenient Truth is not a story of
despair but rather a rallying cry to protect the one earth we all share. "It
is now clear that we face a deepening global climate crisis that requires
us to act boldly, quickly, and wisely," said Gore. Written by Plantation
Productions
Volume 1 - The Power of the Market (1980) America’s freedom and
prosperity derive from the combination of the idea of human liberty in
America’s Declaration of Independence with the idea of economic
freedom in Adam Smith’s Wealth of Nations. Friedman explains how
markets and voluntary exchange organize activity and enable people to
improve their lives. He also explains the price system. Friedman visits
Hong Kong, U.S. and Scotland. Volume 2 - The Tyranny of Control
(1980) Government planning and detailed control of economic activity
lessens productive innovation, and consumer choice. Good, better,
best, are replaced by "approved" or "authorized." Friedman shows how
"established" industries or methods, seek government protection or
subsidization in their attempts to stop or limit product improvements
which they don’t control. Friedman visits India, Japan and U.S.

Free To Choose - Anatomy of a Crisis & From
Cradle To Grave
Description
Volume 3 - Anatomy of Crisis (1980) The Great Depression has been
popularly viewed as a failure of capitalism. The stock market crash, the
failure of the Bank of the United States, loss of personal savings, were
visible symbols supporting this belief. As Friedman explains, the real
cause was the unseen failure of government policy and action. Yet this
crisis resulting from government failure leads to decades of
government expansion. Volume 4 - From Cradle to Grave (1980) The
welfare state arises from the attempt to do good with other people’s
money. Such attempts always fail because: Nobody spends somebody
else’s money as carefully as his own. Welfare is supply driven. Those
spending the money use force to collect it and to insure those receiving
it use it for "right" purposes. Good intentions are corrupted by bad
means. Friedman visits U.S. and Britain.
Free To Choose - Created Equal & What'A
Wrong With Our Schools
Volume 5 - Created Equal (1980) The Declaration of Independence
says, "all men are created equal." Friedman explains that this did not
mean all persons should or will have equal talents or income. Equal
opportunity to better one’s self, and the right to personally benefit from
the gains realized, are consistent with freedom. Equality of results
requires force. Taking from some to give to others destroys freedom
and removes the incentive for creating new wealth. Friedman visits
India, U.S. and Britain. Volume 6 - What’s Wrong with our Schools
(1980) Parental choice and parental responsibility in the education of
children is the U.S. tradition and is consistent with a free society.
Centralized government control has eroded freedom and adversely
affected the quality of education. The poor help pay for education for
the future rich. Friedman has long advocated using vouchers to solve
the problem. He explains why. Friedman visits U.S. and Britain.

Free To Choose - Who Protects the Consumer Volume 7 - Who Protects the Consumer? (1980) Various government
& Who Protects the Worker
agencies have been created on the claim that they will protect the
consumer. These agencies restrict freedom, stifle beneficial innovation,
and become agents for the industries or groups they are intended to
regulate. Friedman explains how the apparent chaos of the market
place, the competition of many suppliers for business, is the best
protection of consumer interests. Volume 8 - Who Protects the Worker
(1980) Unions sometimes protect some workers - their members - but
usually at the expense of other workers. Government protects its
employees and special groups of workers at the expense of other
workers. Both unions and government restrict freedom. Friedman
explains how the competition of employers for the talents of workers
leads to the highest wages and best working conditions.
2256
Free To Choose - How To Cure Inflation &
How To Stay Free
Inflation results when the amount of money printed or coined increases
faster than the creation of new goods and services. Money is a "token"
of the wealth of a nation. If more tokens are created than new wealth, it
takes more tokens to buy the same goods. Friedman explains why
politicians like inflation, and why wage and price controls are not
solutions to the problem. Friedman visits Japan, U.S. and Britain.
Democracies have only recently been considered desirable.
Historically, it was feared that democracies always self destruct when
citizens, forgetting that you cannot remove want and misery through
legislation, insist on government actions that physically and morally
bankrupt their nation. Friedman explains why the United States has so
far avoided this outcome and how we can continue to do so. This
program includes an interview of Dr. Friedman by Lawrence E. Spivak.

Glorious classic film musical. 1927: Don Lockwood and Lina Lamont
are the darlings of the silent silver screen. Offscreen, Don, aided by his
happy-go-lucky friend and piano accompanist, Cosmo Brown, has to
dodge Lina's romantic overtures, especially when he falls for chorus girl
Kathy Selden. With the advent of sound in motion pictures, it is decided
to turn Don and Lina's new film into a "talkie" and a musical at that. The
only problem is Lina's voice, which mere words cannot describe. Thus,
Kathy is brought on to dub her speaking and singing voice in secret,
and Don's on top of the world. But then Lina finds out.

After oil, coffee is the most actively traded commodity in the world with

When an ex-Marine becomes a high school teacher, she is assigned to
a tough class of inner-city teenagers.
A teacher in England abandons the traditional curriculum of education
in dealing with a class of students rejected by other schools.
A frustrated composer comes to realize that his real passion is teaching
and that his legacy is not a truly memorable piece of music, but the
generations of young people whose lives he affects.
Episode 1: Awakenings (1954-1956) Awakenings focuses on the
catalytic events of 1954-1956. The Mississippi lynching of 14-year-old
Emmett Till led to a widely publicized trial where a courageous black
man took the stand and accused two white men of murder. In
Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks refused to yield her bus seat to a
white man and triggered a yearlong boycott that resulted in the
desegregation of public buses. Ordinary citizens and local leaders
joined the black struggle for freedom. The Southern Christian
Leadership Conference was formed. In response, may white
southerners closed ranks in opposition to the burgeoning black rights
movement. Racial discrimination finally became a political issue.
Episode 2: Fighting Back (1957-1962) Fighting Back follows the
struggle for equality from the schoolroom to the courtroom and back as
blacks reject the existing system of “separate but equal” education. In
1954, the Supreme Court also rejects the system with its historic Brown
v. Board of Education decision. The legal battle won, in 1957 nine black
teenagers dare to integrate Little Rock’s Central High School. In 1962,
a resolute James Meredith enrolls at the Univeristy of Mississippi.

Episode 3: Ain't Scared of Your Jails (1960-1961) Ain’t scared of your
jails chronicles the courage displayed by thousands of young people
and college students who joined the ranks of the movement and gave it
new direction. In 1960, lunch counter sit-ins spread across the South,
may organized by the new, energetic Student Nonviolent Coordinating
Committee. In 1961, on the Freedom Rides, many young people faced
violence and defied death threats as they labored to obliterate
segregation in interstate bus travel below the Mason-Dixon Line. The
growing movement toward racial equality influenced the 1960
Presidential campaign; and federal rights versus state’s rights became
an issue. Episode 4: No Easy Walk (1962-1966) No Easy Walk
explores a crucial phase in the civil rights movement—the emergence
of mass demonstrations and marches as a powerful protest vehicle. In
Albany, Georgia, police chief Laurie Pritchett challenged Reverend
Martin Luther King Jr.’s tactics of nonviolent mass demonstration. In
Birminghm, Alabama, school children steadfastly marched against the
violent spray of fire hoses and were jailed as a result. The triumphant
Episode 5: Mississippi: Is This America? (1962-1964) Focuses on the
extraordinary personal risks faced by ordinary citizens as they assumed
responsibility for social change, particularly during the 1962-64 voting
rights campaign in Mississippi. The state became a testing ground of
constitutional principles as civil rights activists concentrated their
energies on the right to vote. White resistance to the sharing of political
power clashed with the strong determination of movement leaders to
bring Mississippi blacks to the ballot box. In Freedom Summer 1964,
tension between white resistance and movement activists climaxed in
the tragic murder of three young civil rights workers. Episode 6: Bridge
to Freedom (1965) In Bridge to Freedom, the lessons of a decade are
brought to bear in the climactic 1965 march from Selma to
Montgomery, Alabama, when thousands joined together to march fifty
miles for freedom. During the drive to make voting rights a national
issue, strategic and ideological differences began to surface between
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s SCLC and the younger activists on SNCC.

Episode 7: The Time Has Come (1964-1965) During the decade of
civil rights protest in the south, a sense of urgency and anger emerged
from the black communities in the north. This urgency was best
articulated by Malcolm X, then National Minister of the Nation of Islam.
Viewers follow the trajectory of Malcolm X’s influence, both within the
movement and outside. The program shows the influence of his
philosophy on the staff of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating
Committee (SNCC) as they organized the Lowndes County Freedom
Organization in Alabama and as they issued the call for “Black Power”
during the 1966 Meredith March Against Fear in Mississippi. Episode
8: Two Societies (1965-1968) Against the backdrop of the long hot
summers of the mid-1960s, Martin Luther King Jr. and the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference went to Chicago in an attempt to
apply southern movement tactics to the urban north. Their strategies
were tested as they came up against the powerful political machinery of
Mayor Richard Daley. A year later, in Detroit, frustration and anger built
to urban violence as blacks and law officers clashed on city streets and
America appeared to be a nation out of control.
Episode 9: Power! (1967-1968) Out of the ashes of the urban
rebellions, blacks looked for new ways to take control of their
communities; the ballot box, the street and the schools became the
dominant platforms. In Cleveland, the black community, together with a
segment of white voters, achieved an historic victory: the election of
Carl Stokes as the first African American mayor of a major city. In
Oakland, young black men and women attempted to confront
continuing police harassment by forming the Black Panther Party. In
Brooklyn, New York, black and Hispanic parents struggled to improve
their children’s education through community control of schools. While
these efforts had varying degrees of success, they nevertheless
resulted in greater empowerment for their communities. Episode 10:
The Promised Land (1967-1968) In the final year of Martin Luther
King’s life, the movement turned its attention to the economic issues
confronting the nation and the rumblings of a far off war in Vietnam.
Moved by the increasing level of poverty, Dr. King and his staff
searched for a strategy, in effect, an economic redistribution of wealth.

Episode 11: Ain't Gonna Shuffle No More (1964-1972) An awareness
and sense of pride emerged through the struggle of World Heavyweight
Champion Cassius Clay to be called by his new Islamic name,
Muhammad Ali. No longer content to use the mainstream culture as
their standard and rejecting images which traditionally stereotyped
them as servile and inferior, a new generation of African Americans
began to redefine itself. Propelled by the Black Consciousness
Movement, they celebrated black values and culture and their African
roots. Howard University students demanded a more black-oriented
curriculum, and African-Americans of every persuasion met to forge a
new unity at the Black Political Convention in Gary, Indiana. Episode
12: A Nation of Law? (1967-1968) By the late 1960s, the anger in
poorer urban areas over charges of police brutality was smoldering. In
Chicago, Fred Hampton formed a Black Panther Party chapter. As the
chapter grew, so did police surveillance. In a pre-dawn assault by the
police, Panthers Hampton and Mark Clark were killed. The deaths
came at a time when movement activists were increasingly becoming
targets of police harassment at both the local and federal levels through
Episode 13: The Keys to the Kindgdom (1974-1980) This show
examines the relationship between law and popular struggle as it
chronicles efforts to inject substance into promises of equality. The
movement’s focus is on the keys to the kingdom: jobs and education. In
Boston, black parents organize to improve their children’s education
through court-ordered integration; the response of the white community
was swift and often violent. In Atlanta, Mayor Maynard Jackson, the
city’s first black mayor, used the legal remedy of an affirmative action
program to guarantee black involvement in the construction of Atlanta’s
airport. Affirmative action programs did not go unchallenged, however,
as Allan Bakke took his suit against the University of California all the
way to the Supreme Court. Episode 14: Back to the Movement (1979mid 1980s) The series concludes with an examination of two
cities—one southern, one northern. In Miami, Florida, viewers witness
the destruction of Overtown, a once-thriving community, as it was
ravaged by urban renewal and the construction of an interstate
highway. Politically powerless, the community’s economic plight was
worsened by the steady arrival of another minority group—Cuban
A dynamic and provocative documentary film, showcasing Jane Elliott's

Description
It was an era when parents and educators foresaw a dark future for
rebellious American youth who "broke the rules" and refused to fit in
with society. So, like lab rats in some bizarre social experiment, we
were subjected to an onslaught of cornball films intended to turn out the
next generation of model citizens. With the film projector as our Yoda,
we became “enlightened” on good table manners, personal hygiene,
how to fit in with the gang, choosing between right and wrong, and how
to behave in the cafeteria.
From the 50’s through the 70’s, America faced a menace more
frightening than the A-Bomb; teenagers with cars! Something had to
be done to “set our minds right” so we wouldn't dream of pushing that
pedal to the metal – the Highway Safety film! No one can argue these
films weren’t well intentioned; but then so was New Coke, the Titanic
and Joanie Loves Chachi. Delight in this assortment of society's best
efforts at brainwashing generations of rebellious, thick-skulled 15-yearolds into compliance. Nothing subtle about the scare tactics employed
here. In fact, watching them will make you wonder how you ever
mustered the courage to shift one of these death machines out of
Neutral.
Whether it was the malt shop, a sock hop, or some other co-ed
activity, they were hotbeds of unbridled desire. Parents and teachers
knew our flesh was weak and it was their mission to make sure that
any “inter-gender interaction” was polite, proper, and squeaky clean.
Enter the Sex Ed and Dating films to target our moral and biological
weak spots and cleanse our minds with a nice cold shower! Thank
goodness. Without these films, how would we ever have learned about
the difference between boys and girls, the perils of heavy petting, and
how to talk to your parents about you-know-what?
Almost everyone has seen clips of Duck & Cover – a film that gave
nightmares to every school kid who ever saw it. Presented here in all its
lunatic glory, learn how to avoid nuclear annihilation by hitting the dirt
and covering your head, just like a turtle. The REAL lesson: If the “big
one” ever drops, the only thing left will be a billion turtles. This collection
Cold War classics isn’t all gloom and doom though. The films run the
gamut from hokey, to offensive, to genuinely moving. And each artifact
of Americana is sure to get you in touch with your inner patriot.

Generations
Page 248
Description
These three 20- minute videos examine key constitutional concepts.
The first explains why the nation's framers created the Constitution.
The second describes the protection of individual rights by highlighting
the Supreme Court case of Gideon v. Wainwright, affirming the right to
an attorney. The last explores the separation of powers by examining
the Supreme Court case of Youngstown v. Sawyer, a challenge to
President Truman's decision to take over steel mills during the Korean
War
United States Supreme Court Justices Sandra Day O'Connor and
Stephen Breyer talk about the Constitution with high school students
and discuss why we have and need a constitution, what federalism is,
how implicit and explicit rights are defined and how separation of
powers ensures that no one branch of government obtains too much
power.
Examines the creation of the court and follows it through the brink of
the Civil War, paying particular attention to the fourth chief justice of the
Supreme Court - John Marshall - and to his successor, Roger Taney.
Explores the issues before the court from the aftermath of the Civil War
through the 1930s. This was a period of unprecedented economic
growth as the nation industrialized, but was also a time of unregulated
work conditions - the court found itself squarely in the middle of what
was almost class warfare.
Details the court from the election of President Richard Nixon - who
appointed 4 new justices in less than two years - through to the more
recent Court of today. During this period one man put his stamp on the
institution and solidified and enhanced the power of the Court in the
modern area - William H. Rehnquist.
Focuses on the court's reaction to state and federal legislation on Bill of
Rights freedoms, with special attention to the explosion of civil rights
cases from the early 1940s to the present.
Micah Mangena, a sergeant in South Africa's police force and an
unquestioning supporter of the powers that be, finds his world violently
torn appart when his son wakes up to the evils of the apartheid system,
of which Micah is a part.
Gives an overview of Dr. John Bowlby's therapeutic approach with
attachment relationships and their impact on lives throughout the life
cycle. Includes footage from an on-going longitudinal study, segments
from therapy sessions, and discussions about Dr. Bowlby and
attachment theory by his colleagues and his children.

A documentary film exploring the life and times of a distinguished
school teacher whose passionate crusade for equal rights could not be
discouraged by either the white power structure or the more cautious
factions of his own movement.
Most of us believe our world has become increasingly uncivil - kids are
out of control, people talk on their cellphones everywhere, and profanity
is part of everyday parlance ... Valerie Pringle tracks down the experts
in her quest for a 21st century guide to manners, addressing some
difficult questions along the way. Is the devolution of civility an
unwanted side effect of the civil rights movement and the "me first"
ethos that came out of the '60s? Or could our bad manners be a byproduct of iPods, BlackBerrys and other new technology? Where did
we go wrong - did we go wrong? - and is it possible to change?

landscapes lead into a discussion of how unique Earth truly is. Major
topics addressed in the series, including plate tectonics, natural

The Restless Planet - Early Greek astronomers believed that Earth was
the center of the universe. However, this notion changed dramatically
over time, especially after the invention of the telescope. This program
traces the development of astronomical theory with discussions of the
discoveries of Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, and Newton. Unique
characteristics of Earth are also discussed. 3. Earth's Interior - Oil wells
do more than just produce oil — they serve as windows to Earth’s
interior. This program introduces the topic of geophysics, exploring
methods of studying what lies beneath Earth’s surface. Geophysicists
use seismic wave studies, variations in temperature, magnetic fields,
gravity, and computer simulations to create models of deep structures.

7. Mountain Building - This program erodes the myth of the mountain
as a solid, permanent structure. Animations are used to illustrate the
process of orogeny (mountain building) through accretion and erosion,
as well as the role of plate tectonics, the rock cycle, and how different
types of rock are formed in the course of mountain building. 8. Earth's
Structures - A visit to the Grand Canyon lays the foundation for this
exploration of rock layers and deformation. The program covers
sedimentation, major structures, the methods used to examine them,
and how petroleum may be trapped inside them. It also looks at
tectonic force and the different types of stress involved in the formation
of geologic structures. 9. Earthquakes - Showing actual footage of
earthquakes and their aftermath, this program discusses the forces that
fuel these massive events. Faults, waves, and the transfer of energy
from the epicenter are explained, and histories of the seismograph and
Richter scale are presented. The program also describes devices being
developed to study — and eventually predict — earthquakes. 10.
Geologic Time - To illustrate the immensity of geologic time, the entire
span of Earth’s existence is compressed down to a year. The timeline
13. Volcanism - Volcanoes provide clues about what is going on inside
Earth. Animations illustrate volcanic processes and how plate
boundaries are related to volcanism. The program also surveys the
various types of eruptions, craters, cones and vents, lava domes,
magma, and volcanic rock. The 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens
serves as one example. 14. Intrusive Igneous Rocks - Most magma
does not extrude onto Earth’s surface but cools slowly deep inside
Earth. This magma seeps into crevices in existing rock to form intrusive
igneous rocks. Experts provide a graphic illustration of this process and
explain the types and textures of rocks such as granite, obsidian, and
quartz. Once again, plate tectonics is shown to be involved in the
process. 15. Weathering and Soils - The Cleopatra’s Needle obelisk in
New York City’s Central Park is severely weathered after only 75 years,
whereas the dry climate of Egypt has preserved similar structures in
that country for millennia. This program shows how weather, climate,
chemicals, temperature, and type of substrate factor into rock and soil
erosion. Environmental connections are also considered. 16. Mass
Wasting - Anyone undertaking a building project must understand

19. Running Water I: Rivers, Erosion and Deposition - Rivers are the
most common land feature on Earth and play a vital role in the
sculpting of land. This program shows landscapes formed by rivers, the
various types of rivers, the basic parts of a river, and how
characteristics of rivers — their slope, channel, and discharge — erode
and build the surrounding terrain. Aspects of flooding are also
discussed. 20. Running Water II: Landscape Evolution - The Colorado
River is a powerful geologic agent — powerful enough to have carved
the Grand Canyon. This program focuses on how such carving takes
place over time, looking at erosion and deposition processes as they
relate to river characteristics and type of rock. The evolution of rivers is
covered, along with efforts to prevent harmful consequences to
humans. 21. Groundwater - Approximately three-quarters of Earth’s
surface is covered by water. But most fresh water comes from
underground. Topics of this program include aquifers, rock porosity and
permeability, artesian wells, the water table, cave formation, sinkholes,
and how groundwater may become contaminated. 22. Wind, Dust and
Deserts - Land in arid climates is shaped in particular ways. This
25. Living With Earth, Part I - Scenes of San Francisco before the
Loma Prieta earthquake introduce this program addressing how
humans are learning to cope with earthquakes. Various groups and
agencies are studying the San Andreas Fault and the damage caused
along its path to better understand how earthquakes ravage the land.
Methods of studying earthquakes are reviewed. 26. Living With Earth,
Part II - Since the nineteenth century, humans have turned to the Earth
for energy sources to fuel their industry. This program discusses where
oil comes from, how it is extracted, and how it is converted into energy.
The effects of oil drilling and the burning of fossil fuels are also
addressed, and the potential of alternative energy sources is
considered.
A powerful and intimate journey into the uncharted territory of
Americans living longer than ever -- and what it means for them, their
loved ones and our society.

Media Consolidation and the Erosion of
Democracy
Local news is the heartbeat of democracy, so why is it disappearing
from communities around the nation? In this program, Bill Moyers talks
with journalist Rick Karr and media activist Hannah Sassaman about
the uncertain future of America’s low-power radio stations, which in
many cases are the last media outlets covering important local events.
Also, Moyers and FCC Commissioner Michael Copps discuss
regulatory rules being considered that will redefine the ownership and
control permitted media conglomerates. What would an even stronger
Big Media mean for objectivity and the marketplace of ideas, and what
are the potential implications for the Internet—currently free and
unfettered? Broadcast date: August 24, 2007.

Media Hype: When News Coverage Goes Too The Center for Media and Public Affairs reports that during the 1990s

the homicide rate in the U.S. dropped 50 percent, yet homicide news
coverage increased by an incredible 700 percent. In this program, the
Center’s Bob Lichter and the Threat Assessment Group’s Greg
McCrary join ABC News anchor John Stossel to examine some of the
factors that contribute to the exaggeration of risks and dangers in the
news media. Recent stories involving murder, shark attack, road rage,
and carjacking are cited as examples of reporting that was skewed by
the overuse of frightening headlines and images, incomplete research,
and the tacit rule "If it bleeds, it leads."

Black Indians: An America Story
2445
Description
Director Anat Baron takes you on a no holds barred exploration of the
U.S. beer industry that ultimately reveals the truth behind the label of
your favorite beer. Told from an insider's perspective, the film goes
behind the scenes of the daily battles and all out wars that dominate
one of America's favorite industries.
Recounts the forgotten history of racial cleansing in America, when
thousands of African Americans were driven from their homes and
communities by violent racist mobs in the late 19th and early 20th
centuries ... The film places these events in the context of present day
race relations, by following three concrete cases of towns that remain
all-white to this day: Forsyth County, Georgia; Pierce City, Missouri; &
Harrison, Arkansas
Explores what brought Native Americans and African Americans
together, what drove them apart, and the challenges that they face
today.
While the discovery of DNA appeared to supplant much, or possibly all,
of the nature vs. nurture question, this documentary highlights how life
choices , stress, nutrition, may in fact impact or even change DNA
processes. The filmmakers explore newer evidence that suggests DNA
replication may not be as automatic as had been thought, and is
shaped and affected by a second "epigenetic" chemical code that
reacts with environmental changes, activating or deactivating various
genes, all with potentially dramatic and even permanent results. As
such, the nature vs. nurture question gains new prominence and new
import, with the implication that people's choices with their own lives
and the lives of their children have far-reaching consequences.

SAN ANDREAS FAULT: The San Andreas Fault runs 800 miles
through some of the most valuable real estate in the world. Though the
southern section hasn't had a significant quake for over 300 years,
recent warnings have Los Angeles primed for a destructive quake that
could wreak havoc on the city. THE DEEPEST PLACE ON EARTH:
Lying seven miles below the surface of the sea, the Marianas Trench is
the deepest place on Earth. Investigate the mystery of this strange
underwater abyss, where a world of fiery mountains, bizarre marine
mud volcanoes, and devastating tsunamis reveal how the deepest scar
on Earth's crust was created. KRAKATOA: The 1883 eruption of the
Krakatoa volcano unleashed an explosion that was heard more than
2,000 miles away, and triggered a giant 100-foot tsunami that wiped out
more than 36,000 people. What made this corner of our planet so
dangerous, and could another catastrophic eruption be on the way?
LOCH NESS: Loch Ness, home to the legend of the Loch Ness
monster, holds more water than any other lake in Britain. It's only
10,000 years old, but billions of years in the making. Trace the lake's
extraordinary history and find out if the famed monster could really have

the amazing forces that shaped it. DRIEST PLACE ON EARTH: Since
human records of the area began, some places in the Atacama Desert
have never received rain; yet strange bacteria have been discovered
living there. Look into the riddle of this South American desert to
discover how this extraordinarily dry landscape was created. GREAT
LAKES: The Great Lakes of North America are the largest expanses of
fresh water on the planet. As the lakes settle to their current levels,
geologists delve deep in search for clues of their formation, discovering
that the Great Lakes' evolutions are far from over.

Documentary "about one of the most important, and least publicized,
issues facing the human species: the toxic threat to the male
reproductive system. The last few decades have seen steady and
dramatic increases in the incidence of boys and young men suffering
from genital deformities, low sperm count, sperm abnormalities and
testicular cancer. At the same time, boys are now far more at risk of
suffering from ADHD, autism, Tourette's syndrome, cerebral palsy, and
dyslexia. [This program] takes a close and disturbing look at what many
doctors and researchers now suspect are responsible for many of
these problems: a class of common chemicals that are ubiquitous in
our world. Found in everything from shampoo and sunglasses to toys
and baby bottles, they are called "hormone mimicking" or "endocrine
disrupting" chemicals and they may be starting to damage the most
basic building blocks of human development"--container. Topics

In this new, highly anticipated update of her pioneering Killing us softly
series, the first in more than a decade, Jean Kilbourne takes a fresh
look at how advertising traffics in distorted and destructive ideals of
femininity. The film marshals a range of new print and television
advertisements to lay bare a stunning pattern of damaging gender
stereotypes--images and messages that too often reinforce unrealistic,
and unhealthy, perceptions of beauty, perfection, and sexuality. By
bringing Kilbourne's groundbreaking analysis up to date, Killing us softly
4 stands to challenge a new generation of students to take advertising
seriously, and to think critically about popular culture and its
relationship to sexism, eating disorders, and gender violence

The Mean World Syndrome: Media Violence & For years, debates have raged among scholars, politicians, and
the Cultivation of Fear
concerned parents about the effects of media violence on viewers. Too
often these debates have descended into simplistic battles between
those who claim that media messages directly cause violence and
those who argue that activists exaggerate the impact of media
exposure altogether. The Mean World Syndrome, based on the
groundbreaking work of media scholar George Gerbner, urges us to
think about media effects in more nuanced ways. Ranging from
Hollywood movies and prime-time dramas to reality programming and
the local news, the film examines how media violence feeds a fearcharged cultural environment that cultivates a heightened state of
insecurity, exaggerated perceptions of risk and danger, and an appetite
for hard-line and repressive political solutions to social problems. A
provocative and accessible introduction to cultivation analysis, media
effects research, and the subject of media influence and media violence

"The Great Lakes" : Did you know that there was once a towering
mountain range where Toronto now resides? Or that there was a
tropical salt-water sea that covered the area from Wisconsin to
Michigan? From moraines, to kettles, to drumlins, to tarn lakes, and
Niagara Falls, the topography and geology of the Great Lakes region is
unparalleled, strikingly beautiful and a place of wild contrasts. "The
Rockies" : Did you know that the peaks of the Rocky Mountains are
actually part of the ancient ocean floor? A tour through the snow
covered peaks and folded rocks of the Rockies reveals the growth
pangs of the mountain-building era. The pristine beauty of the
Canadian Rockies gives way to the ghost towns and gold mines of the
mountains in Colorado, a telltale clue of how the mountains in Canada
were created differently from their cousins in the United States. "The
Canadian Shield" : Geologists believe the rocks of the Canadian Shield
were present during the very begnnings of the Earth's formation. Time
has shaped them into an ensemble of proud mountains and vast plains
where valuable resources such as gold and diamonds can be found
"The Appalachians" : This episode unravels the mystery of whether the
mountain range was once the witness to not one but two massive
continental collisions. Hidden in the rocks lies dramatic evidence
unearthed by Jim Hibbard telling how continents once drifted across the
planet to collide and create our modern geography. "The Atlantic
Coast" : The Atlantic Coast explores the deepest part of a longvanished ocean that was the forefather of the Atlantic. It pores over
thousands of fossils whose discovery helped solve a problem that once
baffled Darwin, and shows graphic proof of how North America and
Africa were once bound together.
Episode 1 - In 1763, the capitol city of America is London, George
Washington is lobbying for a post in the British army, and no one thinks
of Boston harbor when they hear talk of tea parties. In a dozen years,
the colonies are on the brink of rebellion. What happens to bring this
country so quickly near war with England? Episode 2 - A total break
from Great Britain remains hard for Americans to imagine, even after
shots are fired at Lexington and Concord. Words push matters "Over
the Edge" in 1776. Common Sense argues that it is the natural right of
men to govern themselves. The Declaration of Independence declares
this same idea a "self-evident" truth. For Americans, there is no looking
back. There will be war with England.

Two Nations of Black America
Description
There is a growing economic divide in black America. Today, America's
black middle class is the largest in its history, yet roughly one-third of
black America continues to live in poverty. This film measures the
economic and social success of the civil rights movement and the gap
between middle class and poor African-Americans through interviews
with noted Afro-Americans and historical film footage.
Inside Job
Provides an analysis of the global financial crisis of 2008. At a cost of
over $20 trillion, it caused millions of people to lose their jobs and
homes in the worst recession since the Great Depression and nearly
resulted in a global financial collapse. Through exhaustive research
and extensive interviews with key financial insiders, politicians,
journalists, and academics, this film traces the rise of a rogue industry
which has corrupted politics, regulation, and academia.

Slavery And The Making Of America
The Downward Spiral
Episode 1. Opens in the 1620s with the introduction of 11 men of
African descent and mixed ethnicity into slavery in New Amsterdam.
Working side by side with white indentured servants, these men
labored to lay the foundations of the Dutch colony that would later
become New York. There were no laws defining the limitations
imposed on slaves at this point in time. Enslaved people, such as
Anthony d'Angola, Emmanuel Driggus, and Frances Driggus could
bring suits to court, earn wages, and marry. But in the span of a
hundred years, everything changed. By the early 18th century, the trade
of African slaves in America was expanding to accommodate an
agricultural economy growing in the hands of ambitious planters. After
the 1731 Stono Rebellion (a violent uprising led by a slave named
Jemmy) many colonies adopted strict "black codes" transforming the
social system into one of legal racial oppression.
2498
Slavery And The Making Of America
Liberty In the Air
Episode 2. From the 1740s to the 1830s, the institution of slavery
continued to support economic development. As the slave population
reproduced, American planters became less dependent on the African
slave trade. Ensuing generations of slaves developed a unique culture
that blended elements of African and American life. Episode two follows
the paths of several African Americans, including Thomas Jefferson's
slave Jupiter, Colonel Tye, Elizabeth Freeman, David Walker, and
Maria Stewart, as they respond to the increasingly restrictive system of
slavery. At the core of this episode is the Revolutionary War, an event
which reveals the contradictions of a nation seeking independence
while simultaneously denying freedom to its black citizens.

Slavery And The Making Of America
Seeds of Destruction
Title
Description
Episode 3. One by one the Northern states, led by Vermont in 1777,
adopted laws to abolish and phase out slavery. Simultaneously, slavery
in the Southern United States entered the period of its greatest
expansion. Episode three, which starts at the beginning of the 1800s,
examines slavery's increasing divisiveness in America as the nation
develops westward and cotton replaces tobacco as the country's most
valuable crop. The episode weaves national events through the
personal histories of two African American slaves -- Harriet Jacobs and
Louis Hughes -- who not only managed to escape bondage, but also
exposed the horrific realities of the slave experience in autobiographical
narratives. These and other stories of physical, psychological, and
sexual exploitation fed the fires of a reinvigorated abolitionist
movement. With a diverse membership comprised of men and women,
blacks and whites, and led by figures including Frederick Douglass,
Sojourner Truth, and Amy Post, abolitionist sentiment gathered
strength in the North, contributing to the widening fissure and imminent
break-up of the nation.

Slavery And The Making Of America
The Challenge of Freedom
Episode 4. Looks at Civil War and Reconstruction through the
experiences of South Carolina slave Robert Smalls. It chronicles
Smalls' daring escape to freedom, his military service, and his tenure
as a congressman after the war. As the events of Smalls' life unfold,
the complexities of this period in American history are revealed. The
episode shows the transformation of the war from a struggle for union
to a battle over slavery. It examines the black contribution to the war
effort and traces the gains and losses of newly freed African Americans
during Reconstruction. The 13th amendment abolished slavery in 1865,
the 14th and 15th amendments guaranteed black civil rights, and the
Freedmen's Bureau offered aid to former slaves throughout the 1870s.
Yet simultaneously, the formation of militant groups, such as the Ku
Klux Klan threatened the future of racial equality and segregation laws
began to appear across the country. Slavery's eradication had not
brought an end to black oppression.

over her. When artistic director Thomas Leroy decides to replace prima
ballerina Beth MacIntyre for the opening production of their new
season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice. But Nina has competition:
new dancer Lily, who impresses Leroy as well. Swan Lake requires a
dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace,
and the Black Swan, who represents guile and sensuality. Nina fits the
White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the personification of the Black
Swan. As the two young dancers expand their rivalry into a twisted
friendship, Nina begins to get more in touch with her dark side - a

Robert Rogers went into military service in the 1750s on the side of
Britain, fighting Native Americans. He learned that guerrilla warfare was
more suited to the frontier and led many successful tactical maneuvers
against the French. Pontiac and his people had been treated with
more dignity by the French than by the British. Though his confederacy
had many successes, it ultimately had to accept defeat along with the
French.
George Rogers Clark led a daring raid during the Revolutionary War to
capture British forts and neutralize their efforts on the frontier west of
the Alleghenies. His victories helped bring Indiana, Illinois, Michigan,
and other Midwest states into the U.S. after the war. Tecumseh is a
great Native American leader in battle. He took sides with the British in
the War of 1812, during which he died heroically.

Episode Four takes place at the end of the Indian Wars, near the close
of the nineteenth century. Here, desperate times catapulted a
controversial character to the leadership of an Apache band. To angry
whites, Geronimo was an archenemy, the perpetrator of unspeakable
savage cruelties. To some Apaches, he was a stubborn troublemaker
whose actions needlessly brought the enemy's wrath upon them. To his
supporters, he remained the embodiment of proud resistance, leading
the last Native American fighting force to surrender to the United States
government."--Disc container.
Episode Five tells the gripping story of the 1973 siege of Wounded
Knee, examining the broad political and economic forces that led to the
emergence of the American Indian Movement (AIM) in the 1960s. For

Description
This film offers a moving profile of the noble warrior who gave
everything in a desperate struggle to preserve the freedom and dignity
of his people.
William Frederick Halsey Jr. seemed a throwback to the Jurassic age
of naval warfare. While admirals were thinking deep strategic thoughts
in Hawaii and Washington, Halsey was eager to hurl his ships
alongside an enemy he unabashedly hated. His heart and mouth were
on the same hair trigger as his mighty task force's deadly weapons and
they got him into more trouble than the enemy ever did. Though he was
more fighter than tactician, Halsey's men loved him. When the action
was touch and go there was no better man to bellow orders than Bull
Halsey.
He earned his nickname for bravery at Bull Run and led some of the
most stunning campaigns of the Civil War. An outstanding leader and
brilliant tactician, Stonewall Jackson is widely regarded as one of the
greatest Confederate commanders. Visits some of the bloodiest
battlegrounds in America for a riveting portrait of the commander who
held his ground 'like a stone wall.'
This visual biography charts Schwarzkopf's role in the Iraq-Kuwait
crisis, life as the son of a military commander, education at West Point,
service in Vietnam, and career as the head of the U.S Central
Command.
Presents the phenomenal career of one of America's most brilliant and
controversial military leaders remembered as the man who stubbornly
stuck to his guns.
In this compelling profile, friends, family, colleagues, and noted
historians shed light on one of the nation's greatest heroes. Rare
footage reveals the defining moments of Eisenhower's life--from his
military victories to his presidential inauguration. Dwight D. Eisenhower:
commander- in-chief is the authoritative program about the life and
legacy of this remarkable American icon
Recounts the life of World War II general George S. Patton.
The name Attila the Hun conjures up images of bloodthirsty barbarians
decimating an innocent European populace by sword and fire, but in
other parts of the world, the reputation of the king of the Huns is
altogether different. This fifth-century ruler was shrewd and intelligent,
charismatic and compassionate. Attila the Hun used his most forceful
attributes to forge a loose confederation of nomadic tribes into the most
fearsome military machine of its time.

Program #902
Children thrive in a well-ordered and predictable environment, where
daily routines such as arrivals and departures, mealtimes, nap times
and toileting are dealt with consistently by all caregivers.
An environment that encourages exploration and physical development
is important for children of all ages.
The first years are a wondrous time. As the months pass, parents are
able to form deep, affectionate bonds with their babies and marvel at
their rapid growth.
It takes a lot of patience combined with good judgment and warm,
nurturing relationships to raise emotionally healthy, comfortable and
cheerful children
Every parent hopes that their children are developing a positive sense
of self-worth. How your children feel about themselves is one of your
greatest responsibilities and biggest challenges.
Ways to help families deal with everyday problems and life crises.

Childhood is a time for children to learn about the world-and that
includes learning how to get along with others. Parents play a crucial
role in helping children figure out how to form satisfying relationships
and develop into socially competent people.
Children should not be allowed to hurt themselves or other people
(verbally or physically) or destroy property. They must learn how to
control themselves instead of depending on other people to control
them.
How prejudice develops and how to respect cultural differences
Creativity is the freest form of self-expression and, for children, the
creative process is more important than the finished product. There is
nothing more fulfilling for children than to be able to express
themselves freely.
Communication skills are so important to children. Without language
and speech, they can't let others know what they want and need, and
what's important to them. But there's another reason why
communicating is so critical to a growing child's development.

Affirmative Action
Description
Noted psychologists dr. Na'im Akbar and Dr. Asa Hilliard examine
socialization for african Americans and the "illusion" of inclusion -things that weaken african American capacity for sustaining institutions.
The no-holds-barred program explores african-centered education and
institution building.
Dr. Julianne Malveaux, economist, author, syndicated radio talk show
host and a regular contributor to "Usa Today" speaks out on the
economic state of women, particularly african American women. Dr.
Malveaux takes no prisoners while addressing the attempt to eliminate
affirmative action and welfare programs and the role the media plays in
this issues.
In this program, the belief that the key to solving social problems is a
renewed sense of spiritual awareness is brought forth. Groundbreaking
author Dr. Cain Hope Gelder, Archbishop George Stallings, jr., who
challenged the mission of the catholic church, and the influential pastor
Dr. Charles Gilchrist Adams explain the need for african Americans to
reclaim their spiritual lives. The three men also point out what the
church must do to continue providing leadership incubating crime,
unemployment and racism.
Harvard professor of psychiatry Dr. Alvin Poussaint and Dr. Deborah
Prothrow-Stith, the assistant dean for government and community
programs at the harvard school of public health, bring to the forefront
health concerns and the roles family and friends play in developing
good mental health in his program. Drs. Poussaint and Prothrow-Stith
point ou that despite the explosion of scientific knowledge in recent
years, racial and ethnic groups have not benefited fully or equitably
from these advances. These two medical experts explain how african
Americans can take more individual and collective responsibility for
moving toward optimal health.
George Curry, editor-in-chief of emerge: america's black
newsmagazine and a regular on bet's lead story, discusses the media's
role in turning white america against affirmative action. Not afraid to
tackle a controversial topic, Mr. Curry poetically points out the problems
with the rollback on affirmative action programs and the successful
effort on the part of the media in turnign white america opinion against
these programs. Curry also examines the current state of civil rights
leadership in america.

By the Color of Our Skin
Description
Noted psychiatrist and author Dr. Frances Cress welsing leads a bold,
no-nonsense discussion about white supremacy, racism and selfhatred within the african American community. Dr. Welsing writes that
people who classify themselves as white know that it is a population
that is genetically recessive in terms of skin color - that is to say that if
you mix white with white, the product is white. However, if white is
mixed with any other color, the product will be of color. Dr. Welsing
contends that whites, either consciously or subconsciously, understand
that the race can be wiped out genetically and this determines behavior
patterns.
The importance of what many call our nations' strongest institution - the
church - is again discussed as a weapon against societal ills. Dr. Cain
hope felder, Archbishop George Stallings, jr., And Dr. Charles gilchrist
adams continue their points about the need for the african Americans
to reclaim their spiritual lives and what the church must do to continue
providing leadership. These influential spiritual leaders discuss the
need for churches of different cultural backgrounds to deal with racist
attitudes and address the use of holistic ministries in helping people
create educational, economic and political institutions.

South Africa's progress under president Nelson Mandela, and he
continues his civil rights battles in Africa and the Caribbean. Also
featured in this program is best-selling author and founder of third world
press, one of the nation's oldest black publishing companies, Haki
Madhubuti, who speaks about the development of the nation's strong
black literary tradition and the continuing need for developing black
institutions.
Whether it be alcohol, cigarettes, food or drugs, when african
Americans seek treatment, problems may arise because the
established methods of treatment may not be as effective for people of
color. Dr. Frances Breisbane, the dean of the school of social welfare
of State University of New York at Stony Brook as well as a pioneer in
treating substance abuse among people of african ancestry, speaks
about the use of spirituality in dealing with addictive behaviors and the
role afrocentrism can play in treating addiction. Brisbane also points out

This final programs features an inspirational talk with Dr. Lorraine Hale,

City, about the history of this famous child care center. Dr. Hale shares
her ideas on the needs of children and the simple methodology she
uses to help children and their families. The program also examines
why the Hale House works so well when so many others fail. Founded
in 1969, Hale House was funded as a home for drug-addicted babies
and their mothers. Since then the Hale House has expanded to take in
aids-infected infants as well, all the while operating on private funds.
Risk and Reality
In recent years, preschool and elementary school teachers have noted
increases in behavior concerns and developmental delays, possibly
caused by prenatal drug or alcohol exposure. This document notes that
it is more important to ascertain the children's challenges than the
causes. It describes the most promising practices identified for
improving the learning of children at risk, whatever the reason. These
are: (1) creating a nurturing classroom environment; (2) encouraging
cooperative play; (3) facilitating classroom transitions and minimizing
distractions; (4) helping children manage their behaviors; (5)
conducting ongoing classroom assessment; and (6) building strong ties
with families. The guide features a companion videotape. (Contains 43

Mississippi Is This America - 1963-1964
Assisted by the production team for the PBS-TV series on which this
book is based, Washington Post national correspondent Williams
recounts in detail the struggles of the Civil Rights Movement. PW noted
that he "singles out the stories of the little-known activists." Copyright
1987 Reed Business Information, Inc.
This compelling oral history of the first ten years of the Civil Rights
movement is a tribute to the men and women, both black and white,
who took part in the fight for justice and kept their eyes on the prize of
freedom
Black college students take a leadership role in the civil rights
movement as lunch counter sit-ins spread across the South. "Freedom
Riders" also try to desegregate interstate buses, but they are brutally
attacked as they travel.
The civil rights movement discovers the power of mass demonstrations
as the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. emerges as its most visible leader.
Some demonstrations succeed; others fail. But the triumphant March
on Washington, D.C., under King's leadership, shows a mounting
national support for civil rights. President John F. Kennedy proposes
the Civil Rights Act.
Mississippi's grass-roots civil rights movement becomes an American
concern when college students travel south to help register black voters
and three activists are murdered. The Mississippi Freedom Democratic
Party challenges the regular Mississippi delegation at the Democratic
Convention in Atlantic City.

Keys To the Kingdom
Description
After a decade-long cry for justice, a new sound is heard in the civil
rights movement: the insistent call for power. Malcolm X takes an
eloquent nationalism to urban streets as a younger generation of black
leaders listens. In the South, Stokely Carmichael and the Student
Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) move from "Freedom
Now!" to "Black Power!" as the fabric of the traditional movement
changes.
Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Southern Christian Leadership
Conference (SCLC) come north to help Chicago's civil rights leaders in
their nonviolent struggle against segregated housing. Their efforts pit
them against Chicago's powerful mayor, Richard Daley. When a series
of marches through all-white neighborhoods draws violence, King and
Daley negotiate with mixed results. In Detroit, a police raid in a black
neighborhood sparks an urban uprising that lasts five days, leaving 43
people dead. The Kerner Commission finds that America is becoming
"two societies, one black, one white, separate and unequal." President
Lyndon Johnson, who appointed the commission, ignores the report.
The call for Black Power takes various forms across communities in
black America. In Cleveland, Carl Stokes wins election as the first black
mayor of a major American city. The Black Panther Party, armed with
law books, breakfast programs, and guns, is born in Oakland.
Substandard teaching practices prompt parents to gain educational
control of a Brooklyn school district but then lead them to a showdown
with New York City's teachers' union.
Black activism is increasingly met with a sometimes violent and
unethical response from local and federal law enforcement agencies. In
Chicago, two Black Panther Party leaders are killed in a pre-dawn raid
by police acting on information supplied by an FBI informant. In the
wake of President Nixon's call to "law and order," stepped-up arrests
push the already poor conditions at New York's Attica State Prison to
the limit. A five-day inmate takeover calling the public's attention to the
conditions leaves 43 men dead: four killed by inmates, 39 by police.
In the 1970s, antidiscrimination legal rights gained in past decades by
the civil rights movement are put to the test. In Boston, some whites
violently resist a federal court school desegregation order. Atlanta's first
black mayor, Maynard Jackson, proves that affirmative action can
work, but the Bakke Supreme Court case challenges that policy.

Description
Power and powerlessness. Miami's black community -- pummeled by
urban renewal, a lack of jobs, and police harassment -- explodes in
rioting. But in Chicago, an unprecedented grassroots movement
triumphs. Frustrated by decades of unfulfilled promises made by the
city's Democratic political machine, reformers install Harold
Washington as Chicago's first black mayor.
Quantities of high-level nuclear waste abound in this country and more
waste is coming. Storage is at an impasse. What can be done, can the
Western States be forced by the federal government to accept this
waste against their will? These issues are discussed by a panel of
industry, environmental and governmental experts.
Is nuclear energy the solution to our problems in creating energy for a
growing demand?
Highlights the fact that enterprising individuals and institutions have
generated growth and improved the quality of life in developing
countries.
Illustrates how the World Bank is at the leading edge of sustainable

protecting the environment.
Focuses on opportunities for women entrepreneurs in third world
countries. Examines Unifem's approach to supporting projects for
women in developing countries.
This provocative program asks the questions: how does the western
media cover development issues in the third world? How does the
media of the third world itself report on their societies? Contains original
footage from the Philippines, India, Morocco, Zimbabwe, and the
United States.
Presents the young Indian author, Shashi Tharoor, whose book "The
Great Indian Novel", questions our basic assumptions about india,

Discusses how computer models and satellite observations are
effective in forecasting weather, but not very useful for determining longterm climatic changes. Scientists theorize that global warming is
occurring now, so if forecasts show that some countries can expect to
be better off if the planet warms up, will they really want to prevent
human impact on the climate?
Shows how the Seasat and Nimbus satellites have transformed the
human view of the world's oceans and coastal seas, and matched or

BETTER MUSKETRY; ALSO PROFILES THOMAS JEFFERSON,
PATRICK HENRY, and at MOUNT VERNON, GEORGE

ALISTAIRE COOKE DETAILS the EVENTS of the MID-1800's USING
HISTORICAL PHOTOS, PAINTINGS, and NEWSPAPERS.
INCLUDED are the TRAILS of EARLY PATHFINDERS THROUGH
"FIRST FRONTIER", the APPALACHIANS; THOMAS JEFFERSON's
LOUISIANA PURCHASE of 1803; LEWIS and CLARK's
EXPEDITIONS to the PACIFIC; the RUSH for GOLD in 1949--ONE of
the SHAMEFUL CHAPTERS in American HISTORY "THE TRAIL of
TEARS" in WHICH 30,000 CHEROKEE WERE FORCED to MARCH
FROM THEIR GEORGIA HOME to OKLAHOMA; and the BIRTH of
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
From Robert E. Lee's old home, the view today is across the graves of
the Kennedy brothers and into the Lincoln Memorial. Great splits in our
nations past and present are summarized in the causes, splendors and
miseries of the Civil War, and in the racial wounds which still trouble the
land.
The nation again turns. West via transcontinental railway, draining off
war-bred tensions. Mormons make Utah's desert bloom. Abilone's
railhead becomes a cowboy's Mecca, while European immigrants bring
in barbed wire imposing order on vast empty spaces. The Indian's last
desperate struggles explode in the Custer massacre and the Battle of
Wounded Knee - a prelude to the present day poverty of reservation life.

How to be a salesperson
How to develop a great sales personality? How would you define
personality? DW
Creative selling is simply the art of allowing the prospect to sell
himself/herself. You just act as a guide in the process. Pointing out
those things that the prospect finds most stimulating. You help the
prospect build a mental picture so he/she can see himself/herself
using, and enjoying its benefits. Help the prospect to focus on the
product so he/she may experience the feeling of ownership. Give the
prospect an awareness of the relationship between your product and
the "good life" that he/she longs for. Turn the product into a living,
breathing, vital thing.
Positive, step by step proposition developed by a firm or a salesperson
to win a favorable response from the prospects. Sales approach is
what, in essence, distinguishes a professional from an amateur.
Each sales demonstration contestant will be allowed a maximum of five
(5) minutes to set up the demonstration and to give a brief explanation
of the sales situation. The contestant will then have a maximum of ten

Assessment of Fetal Presentation and
Position: Leopole's Maneuvers
“Medical Records”, How to use medical records in the practice with a
little comedy DW
In obstetrics, Leopold's Maneuvers are a common and systematic way
to determine the position of a fetus inside the woman's uterus; they are
named after the gynecologist Christian Gerhard Leopold. The
maneuvers consist of four distinct actions, each helping to determine
the position of the fetus. The maneuvers are important because they
help determine the position and presentation of the fetus, which in
conjunction with correct assessment of the shape of the maternal pelvis
can indicate whether the delivery is going to be complicated, or whether
a Cesarean section is necessary. The examiner's skill and practice in
performing the maneuvers are the primary factor in whether the fetal lie
is correctly ascertained, and so the maneuvers are not truly diagnostic.
Actual position can only be determined by ultrasound performed by a
competent technician or professional.

Reflections On the Long Search
IN THIS EPISODE RONALD EYRE ASKS HIMSELF SOME
QUESTIONS. it is NOT a FILM in WHICH HE HANDS Out DIPLOMAS
to BELIEVERS of the RELIGION THAT PLEASED HIM BEST. the
SEARCH, for HIM, BEGAN LONG BEFORE "THE LONG SEARCH"
GOT OFF the GROUND and WILL CONTINUE LONG INTO the
FUTURE. THERE are NO WINNERS and NO LOSERS. THERE is an
ELEMENT of PERSONAL STOCKTAKING, HOWEVER, and BEFORE
DOING SO, EYRE REVEALS HIS OWN BACKGROUND, the MENTAL
FURNITURE THAT HE of NECESSITY PACKS WHENEVER HE

USES LIVE ACTION, ANIMATION, and SPECIAL EFFECTS to SHOW
how POPULAR ARTS in AMERICA SERVE as MEANS of SELFPROJECTION and FANTASY FULFILLMENT. - This series of
lighthearted episodes illuminates the fantasy lives of those who daily
watch, listen and dream in the worlds of television, movies, popular
music and print. By turns lyrical and funny, it shows how the popular
arts serve as vehicles for self-projection, experience expansion and
fantasy fulfillment.

PAINTING and POSSESSIONS. PAINTINGS WERE and STILL are
AMONG the MOST VALUABLE and UNIQUE OBJECTS We can
POSSESS. PORTRAITS are at the PINNACLE of MATERIAL
POSSESSIONS. INVERSELY, MODERN ADVERTISING (AND
PAINTING, TOO) PORTRAYS OBJECTS in a WAY WHICH MAKES
US DESIRE to POSSESS THEM.
FINE ARTS and COMMERCE. the NATURE of ADVERTISING is
RELATED to the TRADITION of OIL PAINTING. ADVERTISING
OFTEN USES PAINTINGS in WHOLE FORM or IMITATES THEM and
ADVERTISING, LIKE PAINTING, CONJURES UP DREAMS, MAKES
MAGICAL TRANSFORMATIONS FROM the ORDINARY to the
BEAUTIFUL and CONJURES UP IDEALIZED LIFESTYLES.
