Juvenile Plesiosaur Animation
from Clipta - New Video Wave June 26, 2008
This animation shows how the juvenile plesiosaur, discovered in Antarctica by an American-Argentine research team, might have appeared. Amid 70-mile-an-hour winds and freezing Antarctic conditions, an American-Argentine research team has recovered the well-preserved fossil skeleton of a juvenile plesiosaur--a marine reptile that swam the waters of the Southern Ocean roughly 70 million years ago. The fossil remains represent one of the most-complete plesiosaur skeletons ever found and is thought to be the best-articulated fossil skeleton ever recovered from Antarctica. The creature would have inhabited Antarctic waters during a period when the Earth and oceans were far warmer than they are today. The long-necked, diamond-finned plesiosaurs are probably most familiar as the legendary inhabitants of Scotland s Loch Ness, although scientific evidence indicates the marine carnivores have been extinct for millions of years. But when the creatures were alive, their paddle-like fins would have allowed them to fly through the water in a motion very similar to modern-day penguins. After it was prepared in the United States, Martin said, the specimen was discovered tobe the 5-foot-long (1.5 meters) skeleton of a long-necked (elasmosaurid) plesiosaur. An adult specimen could reach over 32 feet (10 meters) in length. Most of the bones of the baby plesiosaur had not developed distinct ends due to the youth of the specimen, he said. But the animal s stomach area was spectacularly preserved. Stomach ribs (gastralia) span the abdomen, and rather than being long, straight bones like those of most plesiosaurs, these are forked, sometimes into three prongs. Moreover, numerous small, rounded stomach stones (gastroliths) are concentrated within the abdominal cavity, indicating stomach stones were ingested even by juvenile plesiosaurs to help maintain buoyancy or to aid digestion. The skeleton is nearly perfectly articulated as it would have been in life, but the skull has eroded away from the body. Extreme weather at the excavation site on Vega Island off the Antarctic Peninsula and lack of field time prevented further exploration for the eroded skull.

Review: Encounters at the End of the World
from Cinematical June 13, 2008
Filed under: Documentary, New Releases, ThinkFilm, Theatrical Reviews, New in Theaters, Cinematical Indie Early in Werner Herzog's unique, striking new documentary Encounters at the End of the World, the great German filmmaker reminds us that this will not be another movie about penguins. Spoken in Herzog's familiar rich, ironic drone, the line gets a big laugh, but it also brings up a good point. Does the inclusion of Herzog's personal interests make this a better movie than March of the Penguins? And, ultimately, what do we really expect from a documentary? Let's look at these questions a little later, and get back to Herzog's film, which starts in Antarctica. Actually, it started a couple of years ago when Herzog incorporated some astonishing, underwater footage into his all-but-unreleased film The Wild Blue Yonder (2005). A photographer friend dove under the Antarctic ice to shoot images of the unbelievable creatures, shapes and displays of light that could only be seen there, and Herzog used the footage in his film to represent life on another planet (!). But the pictures apparently continued to fascinate him, and so he journeyed to the earth's southernmost point to learn more.

This is the last song of the encore, he was trying to ask the crowd what a "Sooner" was and the retarded crowd kept shouting back "Cheater". To clarify, a Sooner is a person that jumped the gun during the Land Run back in 1889 to get a head start on the competition to the race for the best free real estate. If your imagination is struggling, go check out the movie "Far and Away" with Tom Cruise (before he got weird) and Nicole Kidman.

NATURE braves the extreme conditions of earth's southernmost continent for a close-up look at the varied "Penguins of the Antarctic." As night falls in Antarctica, biting winds cast horizontal snow across the dark backs of a mass of huddled emperor penguins. The temperature is 50 below zero, the gales are 90 miles per hour, and the sun won't rise again for more than two months. NATURE captures these amazing and well dressed flightless birds shivering on the ice as well as gliding through their most comfortable element, the water a balmy bath compared to the air temperature above where the Emperors can hold their breath up to 20 minutes and dive a mile deep. Meanwhile, on the shores of Zavodovski Island, an active volcano, two million Chinstrap penguins breed and travel on their own "superhighway" between the sea and their colonies on higher ground taking care to evade the occasional 12-foot long leopard seal, which can consume six penguins in an hour. Penguins of the Antarctic airs Sunday, April 27 at 8 p.m. (check local listings). Major support provided by Canon U.S.A. Inc., Toyota, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

ANTARCTICA: The Global Warningby Sebastian Copelandforeword by Mikhail Gorbachevintroduction by Leonardo DiCaprio The fate of Antarctica foretells the fate of the Earth. For more than fifty years, research scientists have studied the frozen continent and its threatened and endangered creatures, including the chinstrap penguins, humpback whales and albatross. The stark yet fragile icy realm may sound our last warning before the impending destruction of the environment.Sebastian Copeland, an award-winning photographer and environmental activist, witnessed the accelerated devastation of the Antarctica ice shelf while aboard the research vessel Ice Lady Patagonia on behalf of Global Green. He uncovered both the awesome beauty of Antarctica and the alarming warning made visible through his lens. Here the shares images of not only otherworldly glaciers, fields and fjords but also clear signs of massive inroads that climate change has made on the continent. Antarctica features Copeland s presentation of scientific data and personal insights about climate change including how and why the Polar Regions, north and south, continue to melt at an increasingly rapid pace.
