Headline Tag: Science Rating: Amazing Hits: 628 Comments: 0 Deep Sea 3D (IMAX) Deep Sea 3D (IMAX) Narrated almost conversationally by Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet, DEEP SEA 3-D is a thrilling, intimate, and educational look at the unknown depths of the world underwater. RT 40:47. Exploring the reefs throughout the Pacific, Howard Hill's cameras capture a rare close-up glimpse of turtles, shrimp, scallops, sharks, eels, starfish, jellies, octopi, and much more. Thematically, the film examines the balance of life and symbiosis between these creatures. There are the hunters and the hunted, yet there is always another species that keeps the hunters in check, too. Similarly, some species of smaller fish eat by feeding on sea material that collects on some larger fish, which also cleans the larger fish's scales. The continued and necessary persistence of this activity is quite important to the collective survival of the animals, the reef and, indeed, all of humanity. User: spam_vigilante May 7, 2008 4:20 AM

Headline Tag: Cults and Religions Rating: Amazing Hits: 833 Comments: 1 Richard Dawkins: Unintelligent Design Richard Dawkins: Unintelligent Design Many religious people are very fond of saying that God works in mysterious ways. These ways must be very mysterious indeed, for why would God create both the Cheetah and the Gazelle? Do you think God likes to watch games of life and death from His, Her, or Its comfy throne up in Heaven? And why would God ever dare to design flawed eyes? Maybe Heaven was struck by a Heavenquake and God's pencil made some strange detours? User: White_Wolf May 6, 2008 11:24 AM

After his record-breaking work on human-powered aircraft in the 1970s, with the Gossamer Condor and Gossamer Albatross, MacCready's attention turned to addressing a problem he calls "Nature vs. Humans."

Headline Tag: Science Rating: Amazing Hits: 302 Comments: 2 BBC Planet Earth: Mountains BBC Planet Earth: Mountains Sir David Attenborough narrates this 46:59 documentary and second in the acclaimed series. All the main mountain ranges are explored with extensive aerial photography. Ethiopia's Erta Ale is the longest continually erupting volcano — for over 100 years. On the nearby highlands, geladas (the only primate whose diet is almost entirely of grass) inhabit precipitous slopes nearly three miles up, in troops that are 800-strong: the most numerous of their kind. Alongside them live the critically endangered walia ibex, and both species take turns to act as lookout for predatory Ethiopian wolves. The Andes have the most volatile weather and guanacos are shown enduring a flash blizzard, along with an exceptional group sighting of the normally solitary puma. The Alpine summits are always snow-covered, apart from that of the Matterhorn, which is too sheer to allow it to settle. Grizzly bear cubs emerge from their den for the first time in the Rockies, while Himalayan inhabitants include rutting markhor, golden eagles that hunt migrating demoiselle cranes, and the rare snow leopard. At the eastern end of the range, the giant panda cannot hibernate due to its poor nutriment of bamboo and one of them cradles its week-old cub. Also shown is the Earth's biggest mountain glacier: the Baltoro in Pakistan, which is 43 miles long and visible from space. Planet Earth Diaries demonstrates the difficulty of obtaining the first ever close-up footage of the snow leopards: a process which took over a year. User: spam_vigilante May 6, 2008 7:10 AM
