Presents a record of the successful experiments in resuscitating dead animals conducted at the Institute of Experimental Physiology and Therapy at Veronezh, U.S.S.R., by Dr. S. S. Bryukhonenko. The Institute makes use of apparatus called the "autojector" to carry out the functions of the heart and lungs, and years of pioneering in the technique of resuscitation are climaxed in the sequence showing reanimation of a dog that has been killed. Recommended for use only by individuals or groups professionally concerned with the advancement of science.
Uses newsreel footage to outline the important events preceding the Second World War. Explains Stalin's efforts to build his personal image. Reviews the non-aggression pact signed with the German Reich. Discusses the German invasion of Russia and the joining of the Allies by the U.S.S.R. Tells how Stalin maneuvered at Teheran, Yalta, and Potsdam to make the best possible terms for the Communists. Concludes with Russia's continued build-up of strength and influence throughout the world.
Reviews, through documentary scenes taken from the National Archives, the historic events which led to the entry of the United States into World War II. Records the failure of the League of Nations to take strong action against the aggressive acts of Japan, Italy, and Germany. Highlights the war of nerves, the successive Axis aggression, U.S. Neutrality Acts, the various agreements and pacts, and the declaration of war by England, France, and the United States.
Documentary of events leading to United States entry to World War II. Different stages through which American public opinion passed as events in Europe took place are described.
This session will cover the essential tasks of designing case study research (specifying the puzzle, identifying alternative explanations, specifying the variables and measuring them, selecting cases, and formulating questions to ask of each case). It draws on the lecturer's experience reviewing hundreds of grant proposals for the National Science Foundation and the US Institute of Peace to identify ten common flaws in case study research designs.
Shells, bones, tracks, and trails record a history of animal evolution more than 600 million years long. Earth, however, is some four and a half billion years old. What kinds of life characterized our planet's youth and middle age? Genealogical relationships among living organisms, inferred from molecular sequence comparisons, suggest that the deep history of life is microbial, and over the past three decades, paleontologists have discovered a rich record of microbial life in rocks that long predate the earliest animals. Geochemical research has established a complementary record of environmental change, with major transitions that parallel those found among fossils. The general pattern that emerges is one of long-term co-evolution between life and environments throughout our planetary history.
"That’s Howard Caldwell reporting for WTHI in Terre Haute in 1955. It’s a clip from the Indiana Broadcast History Archive, preserving the legacy of Hoosier television and radio. Hear more vintage audio in a feature report later in the show. That’s coming up next on the WFHB Local News.
The Indiana Broadcast History Archive preserves the legacy of Hoosier television and radio. Archivist Josh Bennett and director Mike Conway tell the story of rescuing footage from the basements and closets of Indiana in a report produced in partnership with The Media School at Indiana University. This report features vintage audio from the archive: Howard Caldwell reporting on a “red scare” in Fort Wayne for WTHI in 1955, and WTTV live coverage of a mortgage company president held hostage with a shotgun in Indianapolis in 1977."
The Founders designed a polity almost fated to become a world power.
Tocqueville's sense of democracy as a force of history was accompanied by his conclusion that democracies are "decidedly inferior" in the conduct of foreign affairs. Despite America's nineteenth-century reluctance to engage fully with world diplomacy, the U.S., as democracy's standard-bearer, emerged as "the leader of the Free World" in the course of twentieth-century wars waged by ideologically-driven powers seeking to overturn the established international state system.
In this new century, democracy has emerged as problematic in new ways, affecting the bond between it and the U.S. role in maintaining world order, with special reference to challenges in the Middle East and Asia.
This week: We take a look at a pair of energy bills making their way through the Indiana General Assembly and one bill that seeks to make the state public retirement system another front in the right wing culture war.
This week: Indiana joins a legal challenge against the Biden administration's expansion of federal protection for waterways, and Peru, Indiana residents brace for the results of an investigation into toxic TCE migrating from former Schneider Electric Square D manufacturing plant.
This week: We talked to a former Russian army soldier who survived the Chernobyl nuclear accident in 1986 and eventually made his way to the U.S. He thought his first brush with environmental disaster would be his last. He was wrong. Plus, a federal report found that half of Indiana's toxic Superfund sites could be affected by flooding due to climate change.
