In this fourth DVD of a series, Terryl Whitlatch demonstrates how to create a monstrous villain, the Toad-Ogre, as well as other assorted creature characters suitable for film, animation and video games. This is a first-hand look at how creatures are designed in the entertainment industry, with a concise step-by-step analysis from the first rough sketches to the final designs and sculptural maquette.

From prenatal testing through colic, this comprehensive video guide ushers viewers through the same territory as its namesake book. Divided into four parts (one for each trimester and a section on baby's first three months), this three-hour, two-disc set animates Wendy, the anxious cartoon mom-to-be, and uses real patients of the book's physician authors to illustrate the various aspects of pregnancy and birth. While separating serious concerns with "Call the doctor" icons, it also includes playful bits like a list of old wives' tales and a game-show format in which Wendy is quizzed on when labor has really begun.

Lev Tolstoj - Anna Karenina (in Italian)

"Anna Karenina" fu pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1877. Tolstoj vedeva in questo libro, considerato un capolavoro del realismo, il suo primo vero romanzo. Per la stesura di Anna Karenina egli trasse ispirazione da "I racconti di Belkin" del poeta russo Aleksandr Sergeevic Puškin.
Nel 1887 lo stesso Tolstoj circa l'inizio di "Anna Karenina" affermò di avere immaginato, mentre era sdraiato sul divano, un «nudo gomito femminile di un elegante braccio aristocratico», e che da lì fu così perseguitato da quell'immagine da doverne creare un'incarnazione.

Dan Brown - Anges et demons

Le plus grand pôle de recherche scientifique au monde, le CERN (Centre européen pour la recherche nucléaire), a récemment réussi à produire les premiers atomes d’antimatière.
L’antimatière est identique à la matière, si ce n’est qu’elle se compose de particules aux charges électriques inversées. L’antimatière est la plus puissante source énergétique connue. Contrairement à la production d’énergie nucléaire par fission, dont l’efficience se borne à 1,5 %, elle transforme intégralement sa masse en énergie. En outre, elle ne dégage ni pollution ni radiations.
