These shape-shifting creatures can hypnotize their prey, impersonate the opposite sex and even kill with lightning-fast speed. More accomplished masters of disguise than any chameleon, they have an incredible ability to morph their skin color – even their shape – to blend into most any background. Cuttlefish also have one of the largest brain-to-body ratios among the invertebrates.

		First Flower First Flower - 1 DVD - 56 Minutes Episodes - DVD Street Release Date: July 31, 2007 - dvdtvshows.com status: In Stock Item. - In a vivid story, blooming with beauty and scientific mystery, NOVA goes hunting for the world’s earliest flower. Although flowers have long been at the center of human life, gracing our gardens and expressing our emotions—not to mention providing us with food, crops, and medicines—the question of how flowers evolved has long baffled scientists. Charles Darwin called it an abominable mystery. But now a tantalizing fossil that bloomed during the reign of the dinosaurs has surfaced in China. In First Flower, NOVA probes the controversy ignited by this unique fossil, and pursues the trail through the stunning lost world of China’s remote Hengduan Mountains. In this spectacular landscape, dubbed the Mother of All Gardens, lie the origins of dozens of plants we take for granted today, including forsythia, clematis, rhododendrons, dogwoods, primroses, and the regal lily. How did they reach our gardens? The detective story behind the evolution of our favorite flowers continues to unfold. Join NOVA on the trail of botany’s most beguiling mystery.

Instead, the strange mix blew up in their faces--and the first pyrotechnics were born. Intrigued by the magical formula, Roger Bacon made a bigger bang by confining the black powder inside a tube. ""When the flame of the powder catcheth the soul of man,"" noted the medieval friar, ""it burneth exceeding deep."" The way now paved for high explosives, nineteenth-century industrialist Alfred Nobel--known variously as the 'merchant of death' and the founder of the Nobel Peace Prize--in turn pushed nitroglycerin to its dynamite potential. Carrying on this legacy, physicist Robert Oppenheimer unleashed the terrible beauty of the atomic bomb, ironically hoping its awesome power might render war obsolete. What will be our next experiment in search of the ultimate explosion? / Fireworks!: Everybody loves fireworks--but why? Behind the dazzling displays and fiery explosions is a colorful past as well as a complex and secretive science that goes back over 1000 years.

Please allow an additional 3 days for delivery. - This edition of The American Experience chronicles a dark chapter of American history, the refusal of this nation to come to the aid of German Jews in the months and years before and during World War II. Hal Linden narrates this tale which uses the story of one German immigrant, Kurt Klein, to illustrate the problems of an entire ethnic group. The obstacles Klein faced in reaching America, and the further obstructions he struggled against to free his parents are well chronicled. Klein's struggle is presented as a race against time as Hitler's policies toward the Jewish people become clear. This documentary is an unflinching look at a black episode of world history and a sobering reminder that responsibility for the events of the Holocaust can not be laid solely at German feet. – Quote from Rob Ferrier, All Movie Guide / From 1994 / List Price: $19.95   | SAVE NOW Click Here to See Current Discount Prices - Shipped by Amazon.com |
