► The Day We Learned To Think (Documentary). Understanding of humans' earliest past often comes from studying fossils. They tell us much of what we know about the people who lived before us. There is one thing fossils cannot tell us; at what point did we stop living day-to-day and start to think symbolically, to represent ideas about our environment and how we could change it? At a dig in South Africa the discovery of a small piece of ochre pigment, 70,000 years old, has raised some very interesting questions.

Anatomically modern humans (Homo sapiens) emerged in Africa roughly 100,000 years ago. We know from fossil evidence that Homo sapiens replaced other hominids around them and moved out of Africa into Asia and the Middle East, reaching Europe 40,000 years ago.

Prof Richard Klein believes art is a landmark in human evolution. Unquestionable art that's widespread and common suggests you're dealing with people just like us. No other animals, after all, are able to define a painting as anything other than a collection of colours and shapes. This ability is unique to humans.

Other scientists agree. They believe art defines humans as behaviourally modern, and its beginning must coincide with the ability to speak and use language. If someone has the imagination to devise a shared way to describe their environment using art then it seems inconceivable that they could not possess language and speech. The search for the moment our ancestors became behaviourally just like us is also the hunt for the first evidence of art.

The earliest evidence of human art was always thought to appear in south western Europe around 40,000 years ago. Spectacular cave paintings, jewellery, carved figurines, ornaments and new styles of stone and bone tools all appear. There is evidence that ceremonial human burials were taking place. It really did seem like a light bulb had been turned on in the human brain; a big bang of thought.

Had something happened in a very small timeframe during the course of human evolution to forever change our future? A theory called 'The Human Revolution' emerged. It suggests there was some sudden, dramatic, genetic change around 50,000 years ago, that meant human beings, became able to think and communicate. For years this was the most plausible theory of why we evolved language and symbolic thinking, whilst our cousins the Neanderthals got wiped out.

Neanderthals were known to have been living in Europe for nearly 200,000 years before Homo sapiens arrived. But within 10,000 years of the modern human arrival, Neanderthals had disappeared. This seemed to back up the idea of the human revolution. A new, more intelligent species arrived to compete with the stronger, less advanced natives. Intelligence won and the Neanderthals were eventually made extinct, unable to compete with the incomers for scarce food and resources. Published on Jan 13, 2013 by EducationalChanneI

■ Korubo: fight to the end - . Published on Mar 25, 2013 by newatlantisline

* Part 1. The Korubo are more dangerous and hostile Indians of Amazonia, persecuted and massacred for centuries by the white man. Known as the crushing heads, had never been recorded. Never until a team of reporters saves a malaria attack to Maia, the queen of the tribe. In gratitude, the Korubo hand tend to accept recording equipment and traveling with them to the heart of the jungle.

* Part 2. In 1996 an expedition led by explorer Sydney Possuelo attempted to contact the Korubo peaceful. This contact, starring misgivings, by fear and by the shadow of vengeance, ended in a tragic confrontation. Despite losing one of their own, Possuelo was positioned on the side of the Amazon Indians and today still with them. He already knows the rituals and knowledge of Korubo. Indigenous knowledge now show for the cameras.

* Part 3. Korubo small children learn from the techniques and everyday of their elders. Play, design their own clothes and enjoy living in community. His goal is to live in peace, which can only be honored if the white man stops chasing. If not, they must defend themselves dying and killing, as did their elders.

* Part 4. Sidney Possuelo is the director of Isolated Indians. He works for Korubo maintain their land untouched, intact, to continue to belong to the indigenous people who inhabit them. Respect and Possuelo peacekeeping efforts are rewarded with the teachings received from this Amazonian warrior people. Lessons stored secretly in the heart of the jungle.

* Part 5. The Korubo go fishing. The goal today is an electric eel, probably the most dangerous fish throughout Amazonia. The Korubo faced by timbo technique, this electric eel that could kill a man with a shock. Feared and dangerous but also brave and noble, the Korubo show all sides of a persecuted people.

■ KORUBO a Fight to the end. This documentary gets inside the world of the most fearsome indians of the Amazonia, the so called Korubo. The cameras will be able to shoot for the first time the daily life of this secret Brazilian tribe. Feared by the nearby tribes, they are known as "Head crashers" by the white colonists because of their extraordinary ability to make use of huge sticks. This tribe has suffered a real persecution for many years. Our crew made a great effort to gain the confidence of these unpredictable natives. An unplanned fact made easier the approach to the fearsome tribe. The documentary will show how their queen Maiaá, who was suffering malaria, could be saved by us. The gratitude allowed our cameras to shoot their daily life including amazing moments such as the electric fish hunt or enjoying the children's games. A journey to the heart of this people and their fight for survival. Uploaded on Nov 21, 2011 by newatlantisline

► Talk to Al Jazeera - Macky Sall: 'It's easy to condemn Africa'.  Senegal has long been revered as one of Africa's model democracies, one of the very few West African states with a tradition of civilian rule. The country gained independence from France in 1960, and has suffered no serious upheavals since. It has an established multi-party system and boasts one of the region's most stable economies despite high unemployment and poverty. But this relative stability in Senegal is now threatened by the conflict in neighbouring Mali. The presenceof Senegalese soldiers together with the West African and French troops in the fight against Islamists in the North has raised fears of reprisal attacks. On this episode of Talk to Al Jazeera, Folly Bah Thibault is joined by Macky Sall, the president of Senegal, to discuss the country's presence in Mali as part of the ECOWAS mission, neo-colonialism and the relationship with France, and Africa's capability in solving its own problems.

► Inside Story Americas - 'Big Brother' Obama? On Saturday, the Guardian reported from a secret directive that US President Barack Obama has ordered his senior national security and intelligence officials to draw up a list of potential overseas targets for US cyber attacks. "With respect to the internet and emails, this does not apply to US citizens, and it does not apply to people living in the United States," Obama said on Friday.  His comments follow news that the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) are tapping directly into the central servers of nine leading US internet companies to spy on foreigners.  According to the Washington Post newspaper, even though US citizens were not the intended targets of surveillance, this has allowed investigators to examine emails, photos and other documents of tens of millions of Americans that can be used to track people and their contacts over time.We ask under what authority the US monitors the world's phone calls and internet usage.

■ Moscow Metro Fire: Dozens injured, thousands evacuated from subway

■ Tears for Fears: US cashes in on teargas amid Turkey brutal turmoil. Protesters made fresh attempts to reach the Prime Minister's office with at least 50 being arrested. Reports also say dozens of homes were raided, and at least 25 people detained for using social media. The internet has been used to share information and vent anger against the government. Human rights groups and some foreign officials, including the US Secretary of State, have condemned the excessive use of force by Turkish police. RT's Marina Portnaya reports.



■ CrossTalk: Turkish Spring? Protesters in Turkey are raging against Prime Minister Erdogan. What is the source of their dissatisfaction? Is Turkey experiencing its own version of the Arab Spring? And is Erdogan trying to accomplish too much, too fast? CrossTalking with Alon Ben-Meir, Zayd Alisa and Michael Dickinson.

If we observe, the issues raised by the opposition this time is less intelligent and less subtle. They should be more constructive and pure criticize the government shortcomings, not piggyback on other issues that are less popular. And easy to guess, the protesters burst 'angry' because only trivial affair, just a matter of hours restrictions for the purchase of alcohol. Ah, it's not sexy. Supposedly, if the opposition want to reap the sympathy of people, they can raise issues directly in contact with them. The housing theme, for example?

Supposedly, the protesters can criticize how the government can make the park planning and green areas better, not the theme of elitism and alcohol. So it is not surprising if the demo - which they claim 'massive' --- just lsurvive in 48 hours, is not brought public sympathy because only accentuates the violence and radical.

One important lesson from the demo in Turkey is, in addition to the opposition parties failed to find issues and formulate solutions in argument, they also failed to transmit emotions to the general public, while the militancy of "secular" protesters in Turkey only lasted on weekends. They were not willing to miss the college days and working to fight for their understanding.

► The Cure - Episode 2

■ Unsung hero: Charles Drew. Dr Charles Drew's pioneering research into long-term storage of blood plasma during World War II not only saved the lives of thousands of servicemen and civilians, but also paved the way for blood banks across the world. And as an African-American, he broke down barriers in a racially divided US to become a leading physician, and campaigned against the exclusion of black doctors from medical organisations.
■ Magnetic heart operation. Millions of people suffer from a potentially fatal irregular heartbeat, which is often caused by problems with the heart's electrical system. But now a pioneering procedure, involving two giant magnets steered by a joystick, is helping treat patients with faulty heart rhythms.
■ Parasite Paint. In the favelas and impoverished rural villages of Central and South America, the triatomine bug, known locally as vinchuca, lurks in the walls of many homes. It approaches its human victims after dark and sucks their blood, transmitting the parasite responsible for Chagas disease.The disease kills around 10,000 people a year and is incurable if not tackled in the early stages. 
■ Eliminating Dengue. Around 2.5 billion people worldwide are at risk from dengue fever - a virus spread by mosquitos which causes excruciating headaches, muscle and joint pain. It is usually associated with the tropics of South East Asia and Africa, but as recently as 2009, there was a major outbreak in the Australian city of Cairns. At the city's James Cook University, a team led by Professor Scott Ritchie is working on a new strategy for tackling dengue.

► Al-Nakba debate. The historic struggle for Palestine is characterised as the claims and counter-claims of Arabs and Jews, but one factor that is often overlooked behind the Palestinian 'Nakba' or 'catastrophe' of 1948, is the part played by an old imperial power, Britain. The history is written by the victors, who are the rewriters of history as new information, new documents, and new historians, come to light. It is time to examine how history itself is the battleground for the hearts and minds of new generations today.

Haiya, BBC, .. ouch, .. BBC, BBC. You inspire me but also a bit inconvenient. I'm looking for a heartbroken man and think hard how to mend his heart. I'm looking at the pile of letters in May to April, April to May, even up in March. That's not possible. March is a month filled with the spirit of Mars, spirit to stay alive with Venus. And not about a Sun in Paris which threatens to be a beautiful moon, as beautiful as its moon. He's on me.
 
Ask : What do you mean by the Sun becomes the Moon, hm?
Are you being romantic or scientific?
Doomsday sign or Gay?
 
Suggestion : My little cabbage,
You'd better go to the internist when you're broken-hearted
Do not be mad
Do not be a gay
Do not be a gigolo for all sexes
Do not play around with your genital
Do not kill yourself
Do not get drunk
Do not buy a prostitute
because
I'm also not a whore
Your mother is not a whore
So, do not ever threaten me
Also, do not ever leave me,
damn it.

What a breadth of this world
What is called a step just a quarter step
What is called the time just in my wristwatch
but ...

► "Oz the Great and Powerful": What critics think of Sam Raimi's emerald city update

Oz The Great and Powerful - Full Trailer | Official Disney HD. The full trailer for Disney's fantastical adventure "Oz The Great and Powerful" starring James Franco, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz, Michelle Williams and Zach Braff. Directed by Sam Raimi (The Spiderman Trilogy).

Disney's fantastical adventure "Oz The Great and Powerful," imagines the origins of L. Frank Baum's beloved wizard character. When Oscar Diggs (James Franco), a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz, he thinks he's hit the jackpot—fame and fortune are his for the taking—that is until he meets three witches, Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams), who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone's been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity—and even a bit of wizardry—Oscar transforms himself not only into the great and powerful wizard but into a better man as well.

Oz The Great and Powerful opens in UK cinemas 8 March 2013 in stunning 3D.  Published on Nov 14, 2012 by WaltDisneyStudiosUK

■ Crowded Skies: Russian satellite collides with Chinese space junk. Russian satellite BLITS has been hit by the debris of Chinese Fengyun 1C satellite, which is likely to have damaged the Russian spacecraft, SPACE.com reports citing an analysis by the Center for Space Standards & Innovation (CSSI) in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The analysis by Russian scientists found that the orbital change on the BLITS satellite occurred yet on January 22, 2012. It is not immediately clear if the satellite is merely wounded or completely incapacitated. The Russian space object is 7.5kg, while the weight of the piece that struck it may only be around 0.08 grams.
