  Nova [#3613]
  Becoming Human: First Steps
  A comprehensive 3-part series investigating explosive new discoveries that are transforming the picture of how we became human. Shot "in the trenches" as discoveries were unearthed throughout Africa and Europe, each hour of "Becoming Human" unfolds with a forensic investigation into the life and death of a specific hominid ancestor. Dry bones spring back to vivid life with stunning animation, the product of a unique Nova collaboration between top anthropologists and a talented team of movie animators.
  Part 1: The first hour examines the factors that caused the split from the apes. The film explores the fossil of "Selam," also known as "Lucy's Child" - an amazing, nearly complete child fossil that helps shed light on our ancestors' early development and how we began to depart from that of chimps. Paleoanthropologist Zeray Alemseged, who discovered "Selam," spent 5 years carefully excavating the sandstone-embedded fossil grain by grain. Nova's cameras are there to capture the unveiling of the face, spine and shoulder blades of the oldest known child fossil, 3.3 million years old. And, for the first time, Nova takes viewers "inside the skull" to show how our ancestors' brains had begun to change from those of the apes. duration 56:11   STEREO DVI TVPG

  Warplane [#104]
  Age of Stealth
  The final hour examines the computer age avionics and stealth planes that are all but invisible to the enemy eyes. Over the trenches of World War I, planes had been indispensable. Since that time, developers have worked endlessly to make planes harder to spot and shoot down. The program explores the computer technology and new materials that have not only transformed air combat, but also positioned the world's most advanced air forces for a future where in-cockpit pilots may no longer be necessary. duration 56:46   CC STEREO DVI TVPG

  Frontline [#2605Z]
  The Medicated Child
  Ten years ago, stimulants like Ritalin and Adderall were the drugs of choice to treat behavioral issues in children. Today children as young as four years old are being prescribed more powerful anti-psychotic medications that are much less understood. The drugs can cause serious side effects, and virtually nothing is known about their long-term impact. The increase in the use of anti-psychotics is directly tied to the rising incidence of one particular diagnosis -bipolar disorder. Experts estimate that the number of kids with the diagnosis is now more than a million and rising. As the debate over medicating children continues to grow, Frontline producer Marcela Gaviria confronts psychiatrists, researchers and big pharma about the risks and benefits of prescription drugs for troubled children. duration 56:26   STEREO DVI

This tree is the site of Easter services each year and also many, many weddings. We'll also see the Brotherhood Tree, which even after losing its top 74 feet in a storm, is still one of the largest living things in the world.
