Unexplained: Sexual Attraction
A & E Home Video 733961125160 VHS TAPE New
733961125160 VHS - brand new in gift giving condition and still in the publisher's factory shrink wrap. Sexual attraction is confusing, maddening, euphoric and even dangerous. It is, like love, an intangible essence. We can examine it only through its physical symptoms--the beating pulse, the sweating palms, the rise and fall of chemicals in the brain--all part of the unexplained emotion of infatuation. Through real-life cases and interviews with psychologists, biologists, anthropologists and others, SEXUAL ATTRACTION explores the mysteries of human sexuality. If the urge for sex can be traced to the need to procreate, then how can we explain homosexual love? What forces are at work when a couple truly falls in love at first sight? Is monogamy the only way to have a successful relationship, and if so, why do so many marriages end in divorce? Just what are pheromones anyway? With insight and humor, these questions and others are explored in this compelling program Key Words: Science Nature History

Almost immediately, her estranged husband and his new girlfriend emerged as the chief suspects in the case, but the only evidence investigators had to work with was blood from the scene, cat hairs and strangely colored sand. Despite the lack of a body and paucity of material evidence, Hossencroft's killers were ultimately convicted, and TRACINGS IN BLOOD shows how with the help of forensic experts, investigators who worked on the case and others who were intimately involved. We'll also see how similar techniques were used to solve another New Mexico case, where five workers at a Hollywood Video Store were murdered in 1996. There, one piece of plastic proved to be the vital link that led to the killers.

The Bible is full of harrowing stories of destruction--floods, rains of fire, earthquakes and plagues. For generations, most people have assumed that these tales are allegorical, intended to reinforce the messages of the scriptures. But now, new evidence has come to light which has led some scholars to re-assess this interpretation. BIBLICAL DISASTERS is a fascinating journey that crisscrosses the Holy Land in search of evidence supporting the contention that the scriptural sagas were based on actual events. We'll meet with archeologists and biblical scholars who are convinced that this is the case, and examine the findings that they use to bolster their position. Of course, there are more than a few dissenters, and their views are made clear in extensive interviews. Can ancient disasters provide valuable insight for a modern world beset by similar catastrophes? Key Words: Religion World History

The idea was met with contempt from the British high command, which asked the DeHaviland company to continue making wings for other planes. Undaunted, they developed a plane which became one of the most effective, versatile and celebrated of World War II. The Mosquito was equally at home at 30,000 feet or skimming over the treetops. With a top speed greater than 400 mph, the Mosquito was so fast and maneuverable that Germany awarded pilots two kills if they shot one down. Powered by two Rolls Royce Merlin engines, it was made almost entirely of wood--a decision that ensured that both materials and skilled craftsmen would be available throughout the war. By the war's end, over 40 versions of this amazing aircraft were in use. Fly into the heat of battle on one of these wooden wonders and see preserved examples up clos Key Words: History Military

In the beginning of this filmed extravaganza featuring snowboarding, ice climbing, and "extreme skiing," the director appears in front of the camera to explain why he traveled to Alaska with an IMAX camera crew. This unusual behind- the-scenes approach continues through Extreme Winter, and the viewer not only is treated to spectacular footage of people risking life and limb on impossibly steep terrain but is also shown exactly how the footage was captured on film. For instance, in one segment a champion snowboarder hurtles downhill, and she is closely followed by a cameraman who's performing the tricky stunt of snowboarding while also holding and aiming a 50-pound IMAX camera. The intrusion of the camera people thus begins to make sense, as one can honestly wonder who should be the star of the proceedings.

But while SARS fatalities creep above 100, an estimated 5,000 people die from malaria every day, and the common flu is responsible for some 6,000 fatalities a year. So why is SARS getting so much attention, and how much of a threat is it really? SARS AND THE NEW PLAGUES interviews leading doctors, researchers and health officials to get as complete a picture of the disease as possible. Explore the various theories surrounding its origins and find out what we know about the causes and possible cures. And see how it compares to past plagues, and what these earlier incidents can tell us about how to handle the current situation.

But the press and armed forces have starkly different missions, and these conflicting mandates often lead to clashes between the two. UNEASY PARTNERS is an illuminating look at the changing relationship between the press and the military in the past 50 years. See how they have gone from being partners in World War II when newspapers would often intentionally leave out coverage of stories the military did not want the public to know about to the strained relations during the Gulf War. Examine the lessons of Vietnam, where unrestricted press access undermined support for the war effort, and potentially cost the lives of soldiers. Hear from experts on both sides, including Walter Cronkite, Dan Rather, Morley Safer and generals Norman Schwarzkopf and George Crist. Extensive clips illustrate how coverag

HISTORY'S MYSTERIESTM details the extraordinary chain of events surrounding the unearthing of Zeugma. It pitted scholars against developers and government agencies against one another, for the valley where Zeugma once thrived is now the site of a hydro-electric dam, and the city that was so recently unearthed is now submerged. The past and future collide in this bittersweet tale of discovery and loss.

733961437218 VHS - brand new in gift giving condition and still in the publisher's factory shrink wrap. On January 18, 1943, Major William Benn and his crew crashed their B-25 bomber in the New Guinean jungle while on a routine patrol mission. The plane, called the "Red-Headed Gal," joined the countless other American craft lost on the mountainous, undeveloped island, where there are more missing WWII-era American aircraft than anywhere else on earth. Fifty years later, a Philadelphia businessman named Fred Hagen--Benn's grand-nephew--embarked on an epic quest to find the plane. B-25 DOWN documents Hagen's incredible ordeal, which led some to question his sanity. Ultimately, however, he found not just Benn's bomber but also the remains of another plane, a P-47 Thunderbolt fighter. Here, Hagen details the many steps in his long search--including the additional task he took upon himself after discovering the P-47. Key Words: History Military
