On November 5, 2001, Dr. Andrew Bagby was murdered in a parking lot in western Pennsylvania; the prime suspect, his ex-girlfriend Dr. Shirley Turner, promptly fled the United States for St. John's, Canada, where she announced that she was pregnant with Andrew's child.

You hear so many horrible accidents and crimes from TV and newspapers. But they don't surprise you any more. You may think they are just a part of your daily life. Since around 2000 in Korea, there have been tons of strange murders. There are no killers and no suspects, but people are murdered every day. Someone calls them 'social murders'. However, these everyday terrible crimes do not shock anybody. They are just filling a small corner of a newspaper. No alarms and no surprises. No efforts to stop them. What has thrown you into such a dead apathy?

Flicker Alley and Blackhawk Films present Discovering Cinema, comprised of Learning to Talk and Movies Dream in Color, produced by Lobster Films/Histoire, 2003-2004. Film historians Eric Lange and Serge Bromberg compiled materials from their own Lobster Films collection and material from archives throughout Europe and the USA to create these two historic documentaries illustrating the birth of sound and color cinema, perhaps the greatest cultural achievement of the twentieth century. Told from a European perspective, American viewers of these documentaries will be surprised by moving footage of Emile Reynaud's pre-cinema animated projectied entertainment Pantomimes Lumineuse, the gadget-packed Allefex machine for live sync sound effects, Gaumont's 1905 Chronophone sound film system, using a compressed-air amplifier and their Chronochrome three-color systems and additional unique examples of the Kodacolor lenticular color system, Kinemacolor, an additive system using filters, and NotoFilm in which notes of the intended musical accompaniment streams across the bottom of the silent screen.

EPISODE 5: Are lives of the Chinese people at risk because of the water crisis? It appears so when you look at these examples: *In Southwestern China, hundreds of thousands of village residents have difficulty in getting enough water for daily usage. * A serious water pollution incident has led to the extinct of many native fish species in Dianchi Lake in southwestern China. * Lack of water treatment systems in many regions of China contribute to the water pollution problems. Although famous traditional Chinese songs celebrate the beauty of Chinese Rivers, the songs are now as source of embarrassment to the people of China. This is because most rivers in China are now terribly polluted. Although China achieved an industrial civilization in record time, it came at a horrible cost to the rivers in China. The pursuit of profit, the inability to create adequate water systems, and greed contributed to serious water pollution problems. Now the question is how can we make the water clean? And what have we learned? Water serves as a mirror, clearly reflecting the morality and conscience of a nation and all human kind.
