When Friends Mean TroubleNothing is as rewarding and satisfying to a young adolescent as the support, reassurance, and validation that come from a close, intimate friendship with a peer or peers. But while having friends is crucial for a full and rich adolescence, all too often the heightened importance young people give to friendship results in their allowing friends to pressure them into doing something that goes against their values or is illegal or dangerous, simply because of their unwillingness to jeopardize the friendship. Friendships can lead young people into many kinds of "trouble"--anything from physical danger to emotional turmoil--because they do not have the skills to differentiate between healthy relationships and destructive ones. The fact that a friendship may cause them to compromise their values or succumb to negative pressure is a subject teens are reluctant to address. The goal of this video is to get middle-schoolers to look at friendship in a more critical way and help them see that "trouble" can come in many different guises.

Dealing with angry individuals is a highly challenging task for most people. If not handled effectively, angry behavior can cause emotional and physical damage to those exposed to it. Angry actions can elicit extreme reactions from others, ranging from social withdrawal to aggression.

It's important that your students be aware that they don't try to work things out with someone who is showing the signs of dangerous anger. Angry behavior becomes dangerous when it can result in physical injury to others. Throwing and hitting are the most common forms of dangerous angry behavior. Holding potentially dangerous objects, such as a knife or hammer, when engaging in angry talk, as well as obvious use of alcohol and drugs, are cues that the situation may be dangerous. Trust your own feelings if you are scared of someone. Do not feel you should try to handle it yourself. Nothing is worth putting your life in jeopardy!

Smoke And Mirrors: A History Of DenialIn the early 20th Century, tobacco merchants were unaware of the danger of their increasingly popular product. This video documents the rise of the cigarette, and the tobacco industry's subsequent attempts to conceal its emerging link with cancer and other smoking-related illnesses. Throughout the 1940s, the scientific case against the cigarette was building. However, despite the evidence that tobacco was a major cause of disease and death among smokers, tobacco companies began conducting successful campaigns of misinformation designed to weave cigarettes into the social fabric of America by emphasizing the "glamorous" and "sophisticated" side of smoking. Today, fifty years of documented denial is finally coming back to haunt the industry. This video examines this sordid past, and illuminates the issues that threaten tobacco's future.

However, due to the success of highly organized drug traffickers, the drug, packaged as tablets, has been widely available to middle school and high school students nationwide. Viewers will learn that ecstasy is derived from mescaline, a hallucinogenic drug obtained from the mescal plant. It can promote euphoria and cause light hallucinations as well as suppress the need to eat and sleep. It also causes accelerated heartbeat, high blood pressure, fainting, muscle cramps and panic attacks. Experts also point out to viewers that ecstasy is psychologically addictive and can cause paranoia and psychosis. Video also reveals the troubling new danger of a look-alike drug, DMA.

We follow Fiona Garrick in her print shop, as she takes us along on a special journey of creation; whether writing, engraving, mixing ink colours, operating a 100-year-old printing press or hand-binding, she treats every aspect of book-making with extraordinary skill and craft. In the era of the superstore and the media conglomerate, Garrick's work demonstrates that there is a place in a high-tech world for careful, contemplative creation. In the video, we see Fiona making beautiful end-papers using a technique called suminagashi, which is an ancient Japanese method of floating inks on water; it is a true art form that takes many years to master.

Words Like Blades: The Life And Work Of Emily DickinsonEmily Dickinson, regarded as one of America's greatest poets, was patronized, misjudged, and misunderstood during her lifetime. She was painfully aware of her own anonymity, having failed on numerous occasions to convince potential publishers of the print worthiness of her works. In fact, only twelve of her poems were published when she was alive, those due primarily to the benevolent influence of family and friends. It is the world's good fortune that she did not allow this misguided rejection to bridle her spirit or encumber her gift; for when she died, her sister discovered hundreds of Emily's theretofore unpublished poems "carefully stitched into little books" and secreted away. This program is a tribute to Emily Dickinson, a celebration of her perseverance, a testimony to her resolve.

As this program shows, it's both. Preparation, as the video explains, is a major factor. Preparation means keeping up with one's assignments and making certain the material is understood well in advance of the test. It also means having a suitable place to study, a reasonable study schedule, and a good strategy for reviewing material. Also important are knowing when the teacher is presenting test material in class, and understanding what the teacher's goals are. Knowing what kind of test the teacher is likely to give can be another helpful factor. Pneumonic devices, lists, memory joggers, flash cards, sleep schedules, and what to eat on test day are also covered, as is working effectively in study groups.

Patterns - Measurement (Bill Nye Sampler VI Curriculum Series)PATTERNS - Every time you look at something, hear something, touch something, smell something, or taste something, your brain collects a little information about the world around you. People deal with that information by finding patterns. To define and describe the patterns we see in nature, humans invented a special language -- math -- the language of patterns. With computers, finding, creating and studying patterns with math has become faster and easier than ever -- opening up whole worlds to explore!MEASUREMENT - Some of our most important tools are the ones used for measuring. Telescopes, spectroscopes, microscopes, stethoscopes, radar, thermometers, corers, Geiger counters, scales, barometers -- not to mention the humble ruler -- are all used to compare stuff in our Universe and make observations. We can measure the smallest atom or the largest galaxy!

They all make suggestions about what kind of pancakes to serve, but realize there are too many possibilities. They decide to conduct a survey to collect the data they need to make an informed menu selection. The Monsters go out into the neighborhood and ask what pancakes the local Monsters like best. They all take down the information but each one represents the data differently – one draws a picture for each pancake somebody names, one writes down the names of each pancake selected and one uses tally marks. Next, the Monsters must figure out how to combine their various representations of data to determine which pancakes are the favorites of the most monsters. Our field trip takes us to the zoo where we see how data is collected from the various animal houses and used to order the weekly food supply for the animals.

The program explores some of the ways children can gain accuracy in measurement taking and in communicating their results. The Monsters progress from describing a room that is “sort of long” to pacing it out and figuring out the number of steps. The contractor, Annie Ant, has her own idea of the size of a step which leads to the development of a standard “Monster Step” for actual and repeatable measurement. Our field trip is to visit a carpenter who explains how human beings use standard measurements in construction.

When Aunt Tulips arrives to deliver the seeds, the Monsters are out collecting gardening tools. She leaves two piles, each containing the same number of seeds. However, one pile is stacked high, while the other is spread out. The Monsters argue about which pile has more seeds and then they proceed to develop strategies to discover the truth. This provides an opportunity to explore number conservation and one to one correspondence. In deciding to water their garden, the Monsters come across two water hoses – one wrapped loosely and the other tightly coiled. Again, they figure out that just because something looks different, it doesn’t mean it is different. Our field trip is to a bakery, where we find out how a batch of dough that creates six rolls can actually be the same size as a batch that creates only one loaf of bread.

They spend time figuring out all the different combinations of ten that they can make. They begin to notice patterns forming in the different combinations, i.e. as one number goes up, the other goes down. Once the packages are made they need to be labeled and so addition and subtraction are used to help determine how many fruits of each kind are in each box.

Time (Math Monsters Series)The Monsters go outside to play and fly a kite. Since there is only one kite, they must take turns – but how long should each of these turns last? How can they be fair? At first they try to time by counting, but they soon learn that everyone doesn’t count at the same speed. Then they hit upon the idea of a water clock (actually, drips from the bottom of a juice cup). They all punch holes in their cups and fill them to the same level. However, they soon discover that if the holes aren’t the same size and so their time measurements are in conflict. Next they standardize the hole in the cup. But what happens if they wish to time something shorter than one cup full? Now they must learn how to break up the time into shorter and quantifiable amounts (much like dividing an hour into halves and quarters). Our field trip is to a clock maker who introduces us to the way human beings use analogue and digital clocks to tell time.

A variety of counting strategies are explored to help the Monsters come to understand one -to - one correspondence. Their first attempt is to actually draw pictures of the fish on a piece of paper to represent those in the tank. Another attempt involves the use of colored tally marks. Once the exact number of fish is determined, the Monsters explore ways to symbolize the information.

Unseen Injury, The: Minor Head InjuryThis presentation describes the unseen consequences of Minor Head Injury: What might happen, and what you should know. It is intended for patients and their families soon after injury. Minor head trauma is the temporary disruption of brain functioning due to an insult to the head. Usually, head trauma is called "minor" if the injury is not judged serious enough to require formal rehabilitation, and the patient is sent directly home from the hospital. Most people who suffer mild bumps to the head will not experience permanent problems. Only when enough brain cells have been damaged—or if there are repeated minor injuries—will persons experience permanent changes in the way they think, feel, and act. Minor head trauma should not be dismissed lightly. The National Head Injury Foundation in Washington, DC, can provide information and resources to people with head injuries, their families and professionals.

He knew that the story would have to be believable and hard-hitting in order to reach the children viewing it. His goal was to utilize a dramatic story on video to educate children as to the harm that is caused by tormenting and bullying other children. This harm is often not realized by the instigator or others. Duplicate title (video)—#7163V.

Teaching Strategies For Students Who Have A Low Motivation To Learn (Students At Risk Series)

These are the students who appear to have little or no motivation for school, are aloof in class, and have separated themselves from any responsibility for their own learning. These students don't participate--they have a disdain for assignments. And it seems that no matter what you do, they will not be drawn into the learning process. Somewhere along the way, something has been lost within these students that needs to be put back before interest in learning can be rekindled.

Teaching Strategies For Students With Poor Work Habits, Poor Study Skills, And A Poor Testing History (Students At Risk Series)

In this tape, we place our attention on the students whose poor work habits and lack of study skills cause them to be at risk of failure in the school setting. Work habits, study skills, organizational skills--these are the foundations of success, the essentials for school learning, that at-risk students often lack totally. Successful students have learned these skills. They have developed these skills incidentally from experience. In fact, if you were to ask successful students to list those skills and habits and how they learned them, they would probably be unable to answer specifically. They have simply "caught on" over a period of time.

Teaching Strategies For Students With Language Deficits (Students At Risk Series)Children learn language by imitation, and by school age they have developed communication skills as diverse as the experiences from which they come. Word order, pronunciation, grammar, and syntactical structures are in place. But for some children, the extent of language is limited. More important, the structure of the language they bring to school is significantly different from the language of school learning. This difference in language is a factor in reading readiness and reading success. Kindergarten and other primary teachers give attention to language development as a part of readiness for learning. But if we are to succeed with at-risk students, we must all give attention to language development.

It will provide adults with vital information that will go a long way toward helping the children of our nation avoid this silent epidemic. Children are quickly discovering that using common household products is the easiest way to get high. Inhalants are inexpensive, legal, easy to hide, and use is not easy to detect. Many people, especially parents, are in the dark regarding the popularity and dangers of inhalant use. Experts say that a child who begins using inhalants as young as the 4th grade will probably use other drugs like alcohol and marijuana, thus making inhalants "gateway" drugs to more illicit drug use.

Listening To Children - A Moral Journey With Dr. Robert ColesHow does a child grow up to become a good person? What values guide a child through life's inevitable struggles? How do parents pass on inner strength to their children? These are the questions Pulitzer Prize winning author and child psychiatrist, Robert Coles, explores in this video. Coles grants access to a film crew for the first time in his 35-year career as he reveals the lives of eight American children who are struggling to cope with an all-too-turbulent world. Each child must draw upon inner resources to come to terms with such issues as deteriorating families and neighborhoods, alcoholism, affluence, the uncertainties of migrant life, AIDS, racism and riots. Coles' quiet communication reaches beyond conversation as he asks each child to draw pictures of themselves and their families. As the pictures unfold in vibrant reds or dull grays, in sad faces and sunny skies, Coles defines the feelings the children may not be able to put into words. He is able to explore the issues--anger, sorrow, fear, low self-esteem--revealed by the child's own hand and seeks out the source of strength in each child's family that will, hopefully, see them through.

Standards & Inclusion: Can We Have Both?The move toward higher standards in our nation's schools has raised a major dilemma for educators committed to the inclusion of students with disabilities. How can these students truly succeed in a learning environment where academic standards and formalized testing are increasing? Drs. Lipsky and Gartner discuss these issues: (1) The Consequences of Higher Standards; (2) The Seven Factors of Successful Inclusion; (3) The Reauthorization of I.D.E.A.; and (4) The Restructuring of Our Schools. Visit schools across the country and observe first-hand how the learning needs of all students are being successfully met in general education environments. Learn how special education is a service not a location. Understand that the inclusion of students is not determined solely by where they are placed, but by their full and complete access to the same curriculum as the general education population.

Adapting Curriculum & Instruction In Inclusive ClassroomsClassrooms have always had students who learn at different rates, who have prior knowledge about the curriculum, who have varying abilities, and bring different backgrounds and baggage into the learning setting. When students with disabilities are included, their impact increases the range of those differences. This creates the need for teachers to make choices that they may not have confronted before. This tape and accompanying manual provides a conceptual model and actual teacher practices and sample adaptations across seven areas. Teachers from elementary to high school levels describe their adaptations that recognize the need for student variation in learning and instruction.

Mechanics Of Life: Breathing And RespirationMost living things need oxygen in order to live. Oxygen enters the bodies of plants and animals by passing through membranes that allow oxygen to enter and carbon dioxide to leave. The amount of oxygen that can be taken in depends on the available surface area of the membrane. Our lungs provide us with a very large surface through which oxygen can pass into the blood. Air is pulled into the lungs by the movement of ribs and a muscular tissue called the diaphragm. Air that enters the lungs must be clean, moist, and warm. The mucous lining of the nose and windpipe trap dirt that might be carried in the air we breathe.

Carbon Cycle, The (The Cycle Series)All living things - all organisms - must have carbon atoms to carry on their life processes. At the same time, there is a finite limit to the number of carbon atoms on the planet. How, then, is it that life has been able to continue for millions of years without running out of the all-essential carbon atoms? With live-action footage supported with state-of-the-art computer graphics, this program answers that fundamental question by explaining the carbon cycle - that all important natural process by which carbon atoms are recycled back and forth between the living and nonliving realms of nature. The "Greenhouse Effect" is explained in terms of the role of photosynthesis and the unnatural imbalance of carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere.

Exploring The Diversity Of Life: Tape 1 And 2Series of ten 10-minute programs that explores the large variety of species that share this planet, examining the underlying role of that variety, its biological sources, its natural history and its intrinsic value. The series crosses the curriculum beginning with biology including natural selection, ecology, morphology, and taxonomy, earth science, language arts and social studies. All concepts are illustrated by comparing examples filmed in the wild in North American temperate forests and Amazonian rain forests. The series addresses the questions: How diverse is life in my immediate area? Why is it that way? Why is it important? The series illustrates genetic, species, and ecosystem diversity, habitats, causes of habitat loss, the value of biodiversity, and the local, national and international strategies to preserve it.• A World of Difference - Despite massive episodes of extinction, an untold number of species live on earth today. Compares tropical and temperate habitats to explore some of the forces that generate this diversity.• Go Climb a Tree - What better way to examine the interdependencies of life than to climb a tree? This program is a closer look at the diversity among the plants and animals living in, on, around, and under trees. It raises questions about the diversity of life in temperate and tropical trees.• Life in Layers - One way to view an ecosystem is layer by layer. The program compares the layered habitats in temperate and tropical forests, starting below the forest floor and working through the canopy.• Rain and the Forest - Tropical rain forests are more diverse than temperate forests, partly because they're wetter. The program compares the effects of rain on the diversity of life in temperate and tropical forests.• Insect Diversity - About half the species on earth are insects. About a quarter of animal species are beetles! Why would that be? The program looks at some basic characteristics of insects that make them so diverse.• Butterfly Garden - Nowhere is the diversity of life more beautiful than in butterflies, and some of the differences among these creatures offer important clues about the processes of adaptation and natural selection.• Not What They Seem - Being hard to see, or looking like something they are not can give creatures the edge on a competitor or predator. Living camouflage in temperate and tropical places provide excellent examples of adaptation and natural selection.• Forest School - No matter where you live, you have a relationship with the environment. This program compares the ways people related to their environments in North America and in a tropical rain forest. • Don't be Part of the Problem - The exploding human population is reducing the habitat available for other species. This program examines local and global human impacts on the diversity of life, and suggests ways to be part of the solution.• Act with the Facts - Responsible environmental action requires investigating and gathering facts. This program illustrates the kind of information you need to gather to investigate issues involving the diversity of life.

Crocodiles With David AttenboroughThe dinosaur had its day but crocs are still having theirs, proving that they have the evolutionary staying power to succeed on an ever-changing planet. Special glands allow them to tolerate saltwater, so it is no surprise to see them hundreds of miles from land on their way to colonize new habitats--as they've done in tropical and subtropical regions all over the globe. Long reviled as vicious killers, new photographic techniques now show them as canny cooperators not only on the hunt but also in raising and protecting their young. When the crocs do get victims, they have a unique way of taking a bite and then spinning to rip off the flesh, since their jaws don't allow side-to-side chewing. This technique works only if the reptiles cooperate and share--adaptations that have served them well for millions of years. Includes a rare glimpse of one of the most dramatic hunting sequences ever filmed.

It is hard to imagine a more like pair than the wild-haired academic and young Lannie (Lataye Studwood), a twelve-year-old African-American girl, whose mother works on the university cooking and cleaning staff. In Lannie, Albert is reminded of his own early struggles in Switzerland, his quest for intellectual freedom and his growing concern for the future of democracy in his adopted America. Her youth and earnestness renews Albert's spirit and in return Albert gives Lannie an incredible gift: an awareness of her potential.

Edison's Miracle Of LightIn September of 1878, Thomas Alva Edison announced his intention to harness Niagara Falls and produce a safe, electric incandescent light. Fourteen months later, a crowd of 3,000 spectators marveled as the first electric lights cast their golden glow over the grounds at Edison's factory in Menlo Park. To many, Edison was a god-like figure who could manipulate lightning. Still, the public was suspicious, their fears reinforced when poorly insulated power cables electrocuted both animals and people. So Edison staged an "Electric Torch Light Parade" and launched a publicity campaign worthy of P.T. Barnum. Finally, in 1887, J.P. Morgan, once a skeptic, paid almost two million dollars to buy into the business -- the Edison General Electric Company.Competition in the new industry was brutal. It was Edison and his system of direct current vs. George Westinghouse's use of alternating current. The two waged a legendary battle that culminated in Edison's endorsement of the first use of the electric chair. Edison's plan was to discredit Westinghouse and show how dangerous his system was. But the plan backfired and it was Edison whose reputation was damaged by the grisly spectacle. In the end, even Edison's own board of directors came down on the side of alternating current and forced the inventor out of the business and the industry he had created. Edison did not set foot inside a GE plant for the next thirty years.

Fossils, the remains or imprints of things that lived in the past, are windows into time that let us see what living things once were like. From the first major discoveries of dinosaur fossils in the 1800's, to fossils recently excavated, this program explores different kinds of fossils and explains that by studying them, we can learn how continents have moved, how climates and landscapes have changed and how life has evolved.

Living Land, TheOnce we discovered we could plant the seeds and grow our own food-- everything changed. Over many years, our methods of growing food have become ever more mechanized and more complex. At the same time, we've lost millions of acres of good soil to pollution, erosion, and an ever growing population. However there is now an ever increasing awareness of the need to change our perceptions about how we grow our food and how we treat the land. This program features four individuals on the frontier of this effort: an ecologist; a botanist & geneticist; a chef & author; and an organic farmer.

Low growing plants have adapted to the rock-solid ground and the brief growing season, while animals grow thick coats to protect themselves from the sub-zero cold. To survive here, the Inuit Eskimos have perfected their traditional skills, while outsiders, coming to explore and seek gold, must in turn adapt to the isolation and long winter nights.

Growing Up In The Great DepressionThe shared memories of five adults who survived the Depression weave a tapestry that illustrates an aspect of American culture in the 1930s: children maturing quickly and becoming self-reliant at an early age. Adele's well-to-do family had to change its lifestyle drastically, Bill took to the road, Anne became a social activist, Viola struggled as a young farm mother in the Dust Bowl, and Stretch suffered under the additional problem of being a poor urban black. Via this living portrait of the Great Depression we relive the struggles of five whose experiences made deep impressions on them, impressions which have stayed with them throughout their lives.

How Many Days To America?: A Thanksgiving StoryBased on the story by Eve Bunting. Give viewers an insightful look at why immigrants come to America, what they experienced in their homeland which influenced them to leave and how they braved many perils during the long journey by boat with this informative program. The program's narrator, speaking in the first person, tells the story of one family of immigrants as they make their voyage to America. Visually enhancing animated sketches serve as bridges between the book's illustrations and the live-action movements of the people, boats and even a curious whale. As the family's journey progresses and they begin to reminisce, viewers learn the power of the idea of "freedom" in luring people to risk dangerous journeys to come to America. They'll also discover: • That in many countries it is not safe to have ideas different from those held by the government • The pain experienced by a family who must suddenly leave their home and possessions • That, in some countries, soldiers may enter any house without permission • The problems people are likely to have when traveling in an open boat on the ocean • Why some Americans might not want to welcome newcomers • How the experience of this family compares with that of other immigrants throughout American history.

Spanish Conquest Of The New World (Revised)To increase the power and prestige of Spain, King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella agreed to support a plan of Christopher Columbus, and thus began the Spanish conquest of the New World in the late 1400s. For the next four centuries, Spain explored and colonized, subjugating the inhabitants of the new lands. Spain's power and wealth was enhanced by men like Ponce de León, Balboa, Magellan, Cortés, Pizarro and Coronado. Ultimately destroying the highly developed civilizations they found in America, the Spanish established their own culture in the New World. It was not until the late 1800s, after a series of revolutions, that New Spain ceased to exist.

America's RainforestNestled in the valleys of the old-growth forests along Washington's Olympic Peninsula lies the only remaining temperate rainforest in North America. In fact, the rainforest of the Pacific Northwest is one of only three remaining temperate rainforests in the world. The last 300 years of commercial timbering have nearly wiped out the delicate and complex ecosystems of America's virgin forests. The resulting fragmentation of our forests, through clear-cutting and selective replanting, has destroyed the natural diversity necessary to the existence of these majestic stands of timber. These practices have degraded the very soil these forests rely on and have replaced them with artificial monocultures that upset the natural balance and diversity of plant and animal life essential to their survival. In this video students gain an appreciation for the delicate nature of the very ecosystem necessary to sustain human existence on Earth. Through colorful and vivid cinematography, viewers grasp the beauty, complexity, and wonder of these rapidly disappearing ecosystems. This is a close-up, detailed, and challenging view of what has truly become one of America's most irreplaceable treasures: its singular rainforest.

Anasazi, The: Builders Of America's First CitiesThe Native-American culture known as the Anasazi lived in the American Southwest between 700 B.C. and 1600 A.D. This program explores their incredible cliff cities, constructed in the massive land forms of the desert, the first civilizations of their kind in America. Through beautiful live-action footage of their ruins, the Anasazi lifestyle takes form. Beginning as nomadic hunters-and-gatherers, the Anasazi evolved into an agricultural community with extensive villages, or pueblos. They became expert basket weavers and potters; some of their exquisite craft survives today. As we follow the development of Anasazi civilization, we also explore concurrent European history, which adds a unique perspective to this study of early Native-American life. The eventual invasion of American lands by Europeans, coupled with the spread of disease, led to the dispersal of the Anasazi culture.

Follow the immigration process from the treacherous passage across the sea to the daunting challenge of starting life over in a new land.

Native-American Folk TalesThis intriguing video lesson, replete with music and colorful animation, presents four tales from four different Native-American groups: 1) Storytelling Stone, from the Seneca tribe of the northeastern woodland area, explains how stories first came to humans. An orphan, despised and taunted, leaves his village. After traveling many days, he sets camp near a huge stone. The stone tells the young man how to receive tales. After learning to give thanks and make sacrifices for the stories, the youngster becomes the first person to hear them. In time, he passes along the stories to others.2) Pelican Girl comes from the Pacific Coastal Miwok group. It is a cautionary tale that encourages children to obey tribal rules. Pelican Girl has just become a woman, and, according to the ways of her people, must not pick berries or bend down for several weeks. But she forgets and the results are tragic. An evil, fire-eating shaman from the north kidnaps her and takes her to his village. Her exciting rescue, employing magical powers, will keep students on the edge of their chairs.3) The Boy Who Loved Bears comes from the Pawnee, a Plains group. This beautiful tale helps youngsters understand the significance of bears in Pawnee culture and recognize the deep bond between Native Americans and nature. A young man is killed by a raiding party but is brought back to life by a bear. The two become brothers and lead parallel lives.4) The Turkey Girl comes from the Pueblo culture of the Southwest. It shows the importance of trust in Pueblo culture and explains why turkeys flee when humans approach. Youngsters will find the similarity to the Cinderella story fascinating.

Railroads: The Golden Age (1880-1916)By 1990 five different railroads had reached the Pacific Ocean, and between the Atlantic and Pacific the land was being invaded by a spider web of rails. For railroads there was no competition. No industry so dominated the American scene, or so touched every aspect of American life, as did the railroad during its Golden Age. It was a time when railroads inspired songs, books, plays, and movies. It was a time when life centered around big city stations and small town depots, a time when railroads were bringing immigrants west and taking tourists to see America's great scenic wonders. By 1916 there were 254,000 miles of track in the U.S., but there would never be more than that. Competition from cars, trucks, buses, and airplanes would soon bring the railroad's Golden Age to an end.

But ultimately, the conversion of Constantine the Great paved the way for the triumph of Christianity in Western Civilization--and signaled the beginning of the end for the Empire.

Surviving The Dust BowlIn the summer of 1931, across the Southern Plains, the rains suddenly stopped. Farmers watched their parched soil soar into the air and form walls of churning dust that blotted out the sun. For nearly a decade, these "black blizzards" brought hardship and misery to thousands of families in what became known as the "Dust Bowl." Featuring poignant interviews with witnesses and remarkable archival film footage and photographs, this video tells the heart-wrenching story of a people who endured a series of almost Biblical scourges, from drought and famine to a plague of jackrabbits. Tenaciously, they fought off dust storms that many felt could be identified by color--black from Kansas, red from Oklahoma, gray from Colorado or New Mexico. They hung wet sheets in doorways and stuffed window frames with rags, but the lethal powder permeated everything. It coated stomachs and lungs, choking its victims to death in an epidemic of "dust pneumonia." America's worst ecological disaster came to an end after soil conservation techniques were introduced, and the skies finally opened in 1939. " It meant life itself," recalls one survivor. "It meant a future."

Instead, it was passed on in a remarkable way - in the form of oral history, told and retold from one generation to the next as stories and songs. Using these stories along with artifacts and the few ancient ruins that exist, archaeologists have been able to piece together parts of Africa's past to learn of the great civilizations that rose across the continent. This program reviews some of those civilizations, known as kingdoms, such as Nubia, Ethiopia, Ghana, Mali and Songhay, then focuses on two specific kingdoms - Great Zimbabwe in Southern Africa and the Swahili civilization in East Africa.

Baltic States, The (oneWorld Series)In this last decade of the 20th Century, three tiny nations on the western fringe of Russia shook loose the chains of 50 years of Soviet occupation and declared themselves, once again, free and independent. Viewed collectively by the West, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania achieved independence through a united front, but are in fact three very distinct places and peoples, each with its own history, unique ethnic roots and problems. Yet, they are advancing together on a troubled path to places in the ever more interdependent world of the 21st Century.One World camera crews documented two years of struggle after the Baltic people declared their freedom in a "singing revolution" that was a largely peaceful, almost Ghandian success. This report traces the dark cloud that lingered in the Fall of 1994 after the Russian troop withdrawal ended a half century of occupation -- of spies, informers, deportations and fear. Reformers and romantics who first filled offices of government had to be turned out in favor of those with experience, as voters in these nations felt their way back to self determination. Conflict persists among visions of reform, efficiency, free markets and a longtime "business as usual" mentality. Shining through this documentary is a collective vision of the future, of people discovering once again how to live free, adopting modern techniques of governing, of farming and manufacturing -- and thinking -- that will guide these three Baltic States, individually and collectively, into the new millennium. Narrated by Charles Osgood of CBS News Sunday Morning. With commentary by former National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski.

In a land most Americans would be hard pressed to find on a map, five million dedicated Finns continue to demonstrate the tenacity and fierce nationalism that has enabled them to survive an unforgiving climate as well as a turbulent history, in a land repeatedly fought over through the centuries, a cultural divide between East and West. Twice in the 20th Century Finland has been written off as lost: first in the "Winter War" in 1939 when the Finns were left alone to face invasion by a Russian army 50 times its size, and again at the end of World War II when Finland was given over to the Soviet sphere of influence.

Indus Valley - Civilization (India Series)Nearly 5000 years ago there existed a highly developed civilization in the Indus Valley. It came to be known in the 3rd decade of this century when excavations were made by archaeologists in the northwest part of India. The first excavated sites discovered the ancient cities of Harappa and Mohen Jo-Daro. The evidence found in the ruins of these cities, revealed an ancient people primarily urban and sophisticated in building methods and city planning. Further study shows the Indus people used precious metal and stones to make various jewelry, ornaments, sculptures and other forms of art. Many scholars debate the causes for their decline and eventual extinction. Whatever the reason for their disappearance, scholars do agree that the Indus people had a great influence over the later growth of India's culture and civilization.
