The Death of the Oceans

This is a playlist. Each successive video begins automatically.











Sir David Attenborough reveals the findings of one of the most ambitious scientific studies of our time - an investigation into what is happening to our oceans. He looks at whether it is too late to save their remarkable biodiversity.

Horizon travels from the cold waters of the North Atlantic to the tropical waters of the Great Barrier Reef to meet the scientists who are transforming our understanding of this unique habitat. Attenborough explores some of the ways in which we are affecting marine life - from over-fishing to the acidification of sea water.

The film also uncovers the disturbing story of how shipping noise is deafening whales and dolphins, affecting their survival in the future.

A Spiritual Mind Movie

A Mind Movie like no other...

Not everyone is necessarily concerned about the material aspect of their lives nor desires a million-dollar home, a luxury gas-guzzling car, a yacht, jewelry, exotic holidays, loads of money, etc. Some people prioritize their spiritual development. This MindMovie is for them - for women, especially (since I am one), and for men in touch with their inner Shakti or feminine side. I made all the graphics myself - each picture was specifically made for the affirmation it follows. This video represents a great many hours of hard work and concentration.

IMPORTANT:

This video is best watched on YouTube if you wish to rate it and leave a comment. I have found that the video is fuzzy when watched with that dinosaur of a browser, Internet Explorer, whereas it is absolutely crystal clear and sharp with Firefox. Furthermore, with Firefox, one has the choice of watching it in HQ (High Quality), which is even better. It should be watched every day, twice a day (morning and night before going to bed) with headphones on and the volume up.

If you like it, please send the link to all your friends and family so that they too may enjoy it. :)

Bar Juggling in the English Garden

Walking one warm summer day in the English Garden (a public park) in Geneva, I came across these three young men who were practicing their bar juggling on the lawn. After filming them, I asked them for their permission to upload the video onto the web. They acquiesced warmly! I found the perfect piece of music on the Current APM music library. There is one particularly magic moment when the young man with a red shirt's movements match the music absolutely perfectly - 1:20 to 1:50 or thereabouts! At one point, a rude old lady walked right in front of my camera in spite of my signs to her asking her to walk behind me. I slightly lost my cool at that point. Don't you hate it when people do that to you?

Anyway, the old lady notwithstanding, I am quite pleased with this little video.

For best results, click on HQ as soon as the video launches, and use headphones.

Enjoy!

Cannabis Cures Cancer - "Run From The Cure" The Rick Simpson Story

After a serious head injury in 1997, Rick Simpson sought relief from his medical condition through the use of medicinal hemp oil. When Rick discovered that the hemp oil (with its high concentration of T.H.C.) cured cancers and other illnesses, he tried to share it with as many people as he could free of charge. When the story went public, the long arm of the law snatched the medicine - leaving potentially thousands of people without their cancer treatments - and leaving Rick with unconsitutional charges of possessing and trafficking marijuana!

To honour the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin

"Charles Darwin and the Tree of Life" is a documentary about Charles Darwin and his revolutionary theory of evolution through natural selection, produced by the BBC to mark the bicentenary of Darwin's birth. It is part of the BBC Darwin Season. The presenter, David Attenborough, outlines the development of the theory by Darwin through his observations of animals and plants in nature and in the domesticated state, visiting sites important in Darwin's own life, including Down House, Cambridge University and the Natural History Museum, and using archive footage from Attenborough's many nature documentaries for the BBC. He reviews the development of the theory since its beginnings, and its revolutionary impact on the way in which humans view themselves - not as having dominion over the animals as the Bible says, but being an animal and controlled by the same forces that control the other animals.

Gender Puzzle

Are we on the cusp of discovering what determines gender? The old mantra - all girls have XX chromosomes and all boys have XY - is no longer reliable. Scientists are now looking beyond chromosomes to "brain sex" and the role of newly discovered genes. By studying transsexuals and people on the gender extremes, they believe they can unlock the gender puzzle. This high-quality documentary looks at the new and challenging science of gender.

Codex Gigas - The Devil's Bible

There is no other manuscript like it. It contains a combination of texts that exist nowhere else. It is a most peculiar, strange, haunting, fascinating, large, bizarre, inexplicable object. And behind it all there's a diabolical driving force. A single, sinister figure. Satan. Dare you scan its pages?

The Real Roswell

What secrets lay buried in the never-before-seen files of a famous UFO investigator? In the early 1950s, James McDonald, a senior physicist at the University of Arizona, changed the entire course of UFO research. For nearly 20 years he examined UFO reports in great detail - interviewing over 500 witnesses, uncovering important government documents, and testifying before Congress in 1968. He challenged skeptics, performed scientific analysis, and led the charge for UFOs to be properly studied. After his tragic death in 1971, his investigations and files were sent to the University archives, where they lay dormant...until now. The team brings these lost UFO files back into the public eye for the first time on television, and looks at evidence long thought lost to history.

Cinq façons de sauver la Terre

Le réchauffement climatique est en marche. Comment éviter la catastrophe annoncée ? Sollicités par la NASA, les plus grands savants ont imaginé quelques solutions... surprenantes!

Le réchauffement climatique est devenu une préoccupation mondiale. Pour tenter de sauver la planète avant qu'il ne soit trop tard, la Nasa a organisé en 2006 une conférence sur le climat. Les plus grands scientifiques de la planète, dont le Prix Nobel de chimie Paul Crutzen (1995), étaient invités à proposer leurs "solutions" pour limiter l'augmentation de la température... Dans Cinq moyens de sauver le monde, Jonathan Barker présente cinq projets parmi les plus ambitieux. Des scénarios qui peuvent paraître délirants, mais qui sont peut-être la seule chance de préserver les grands équilibres écologiques. Le réalisateur a suivi ces chercheurs passionnés aux États-Unis, en Australie, en Écosse et en Angleterre.
