  Hoover Dam: American Experience [#1103]
  Rising more than 700 feet above the raging waters of the Colorado River, it was called one of the greatest engineering works in history. Hoover Dam, built during the Great Depression, drew men desperate for work to a remote and rugged canyon near Las Vegas. There they lived in tent cities, struggled against heat, choking dust and perilous heights to build a colossus of concrete that brought electricity and water to millions and transformed the American Southwest. duration 55:40   CC STEREO DVI TVPG-L

  Tattooed Under Fire
  A unique, intimate, character-driven portrait of Iraq-bound and returning US soldiers as they go under the tattoo needle: openly professing their pride, sharing their secrets and confessing their fears. The tattoos cross lines of gender, class, and political affinity revealing the inner lives of young men and women as they live through the horrors of the Iraq war. The film's narrative moves from the early expectations and excitement of 18 and 20 year-olds through cynicism and anger to a sense of a psychological aftermath that will never be erased. Each soldier's story is an evocative, poignant, and highly personal look at the human and cultural cost of war. duration 56:40   CC STEREO TVPG

  Nova [#3614]
  Becoming Human: Birth of Humanity
  In gripping forensic detail, the second program investigates the first skeleton that really looks like us - "Turkana Boy" - an astonishingly complete specimen of Homo erectus found by the famous Leakey team in Kenya. These ancestors are thought to have developed key innovations such as hunting, use of fire and extensive social bonds. Nova examines a theory that it was long-distance running - our ability to jog - that was not only crucial for the survival of these early hominids on grasslands filled with vicious predators, but also gave them a unique hunting strategy: chasing and running down prey, such as deer or antelope, to the point of exhaustion. "Turkana Boy" also marks the first time in human evolution that there is strong evidence of an extended period of childhood and parenting. As anthropologist and primatologist Sarah Hardy explains, "Because they had longer childhoods, there was a wonderful opportunity for big brains to evolve." New analyses of fossil bones and teeth are giving us direct evidence of how, why and when humans' uniquely long childhood and parenting began and how the empathy of the family bond got started and why it proved vital. duration 56:31   STEREO DVI TVPG
