Learning BASIC
Well, I got an email from Cari recently and it includes a link for those of you who might be interested in a BASIC programming solution. It's not free, but the feedback and support for the product look good. You can check it out here.
I for one remember typing in my very first BASIC program on an Apple II - it bounced a ball randomly off the edges of the screen, similar to PONG but with no user control. Still, I was hooked and I have to admit that learning programming using line numbers (at first) helped me to figure out how to organize future programming projects...
I'd love to hear from some professional programmers out there... maybe some encouraging words to our younger readers who are interested in learning more programming...

Here is a better solution. It teaches assembly with an 8051 emulator, C and C++. It is $19 plus shipping and handling.
While C and C++ may be harder than Basic, it is a more universal programing language that can be applied to other operating systems and environments easier than basic.

You're right when you say that C and C++ are harder than BASIC. In fact they're a LOT harder. So if C and C++ are a better solution, this is true only if you are willing to put up with memory bugs, pointer bugs, and system instability. C based languages are a fine thing of course, but don't push them as appropriate for beginners.

I would never recommend anyone learning C as their first programming language. The wonderful thing about Mindstorms is that it gives an introduction to the field with a visual language, rather than textual. There is a whole body of research, begun by Seymour Papert, to support this and which led to the work at the Media Lab that has produced the NXT system.
The first language one learns, whether it is a natural language like English or a formal one like C, really affects the way you think about languages. I do not believe that C is a good conceptual model for learning programming, while it is a very practical one for the advanced software engineer.
C would be fine for advanced students wanting to pursue a serious study of computer science or professional programming, but not for kids!

This is a little off topic but can the NXT be programmed with Java? If not will it be available soon?

Lejos sounds great, and it kinda got me wondering if anyone knew of an equivalent for c++?
- Oct 21, 2006, 3:36:00 PM
I am a professional Engineer / Research Scientist. I would certainly recommend C as the first programming language. I started out by learning C and have never looked back. Contarary to popular opinion C is a lot more logical and structured language than say Basic.
- Nov 13, 2006, 3:37:00 AM
I've tried c/c++ before, and for most programming, I would never recommend them. Most notably due to the fact that the code starts to look like garbage instead of text in anything but a small console app.

If your looking for something more structured then BASIC< but less formal then C, look no further then BCX.
BCX is a BASIC-to-C translator. I've been using it for almost a year, and wrote many programs with it; a few of which where around 15k lines; try compiling that in a BASIC environment, and watch as the minutes tick by.
BCX afforded me both power, flexibility, AND SIMPLICITY.
I would strongly recommend starting with Basic, then moving on to BCX within the 1st 3 months of practice, you wil NEVER regret it.
Afterall, it takes a keen eye, and a sharp mind to work with C. c programmers are somethfing special of coarse. C has actually been around twenty omething years or longer? its about passed it's time, and anyone that knows anything about the programming bussiness will agree that their are other, newer, almost as powerful languages to be learned, with a lot less difficulty then C.
Again, anyone that knows anything about programming will agree that C
is starting to fade with the compition.

Portlandia's not very good at taking time off. Instead of curling up with a crafty project or vacationing in Bali before the premiere of Season 3 on January 4, they keep throwing out juicy morsels. First, Carrie and Fred were on The Simpsons (with the Decemberists). And now, a special "nondenominational, optionally religious winter holiday celebration timed around the solstice" they're calling "Winter in Portlandia." Just don't call it the Christmas special.
If you missed it on IFC, you can still download it free on iTunes. Watch for Gabriel Rucker and Le Pigeon, SNL's Bobby Moynihan as Candace's scarred son, and the imaginary Mississippi Avenue foodcart Stu's Stews that harrassed me on the way to work two days in a row. For a full lineup of the special guests on Season 3—including Chloe Sevigny, George Wendt (Norm!), and Roseanne—see our earlier post.
Also new, comedian Kumail Nanjiani is doing a special webseries Kumail Visits Portlandia. His first visit takes him, where else, the real feminist bookstore.

Déjà vu: that flash of memory when you meet someone new who you feel you've known all your life or when recognize a place although you've never been there before. What if these feelings are actually warnings sent from the past or clues to the future? It is déjà vu that guides ATF agent Doug Carlin through an investigation into a shattering crime. Called in to recover evidence after a cataclysmic bomb explosion on a New Orleans Ferry, Carlin discovers that what most people believe "is only in their heads" is something far more powerful--something which will lead him on a mind-bending race to save hundreds of innocent people.

Hi friends,
Last month I have bought a hot tub and I am using it 3-4 times a week at about 103 degrees. What is the best mode to have the hot tub in as far as electrical usage. Would it be more energy efficient to keep a constant temp. even when tub is not use or to use what is called standard-in-economy mode on my tub.

If you put it in economy mode it will run more efficient. It will only heat during the filter cycles and not on demand like the standard mode will. If you have an insulated cover on the spa it will keep the temperature at its set degrees.

International know-how could be your key to success in today's business world
Bachelor of Science in Business Management with a concentration in International Business
We live and work in a global economy that is constantly changing. Consumer and business needs are always evolving, and new regulations and trade agreements happen almost daily. In addition, the Internet has helped to erase geographic boundaries so now even the smallest companies have international customers.
Learn to recognize opportunities…
Organizations that do business internationally need international business management professionals who understand the complexities of working with foreign companies. New opportunities exist overseas for company partnerships, mergers, acquisitions, sales, outsourcing, and other relationships, and trained individuals must determine which prospects make the most sense for their organization.
…as well as potential risks
On the flip side, anti-U.S. attitudes and political and social trends in Europe, Russia, Asia, China, India, and the Middle East will affect a company's future. They will need someone to recognize these threats and help strategize to overcome them.
Distinguish yourself as an International Business expert
Those who succeed in an international business management career will be able to monitor and manage differences in:
- Legal and political systems
- Accounting and labor standards
- Economic policies
- Environmental controls
- Local and corporate culture
- Personal interaction and communication practices
- Religious beliefs and how they affect business
- Import and export regulations
- Trade agreements
International Business - A career that can really take you places
Successful International Business leaders must understand and respect other cultures and their regulations. They must enjoy traveling and have in-depth knowledge of other countries. It is also helpful to speak at least one foreign language.
A career in international business could be right for you, if you:
- Enjoy learning about and working in different cultures
- Are adept at keeping current with changing regulations
- Have solid communication and people management skills
- Can relate statistical research to practical applications
- Work well in a structured atmosphere
- Enjoy working with people from different cultures

What are the career opportunities in this field?
Nearly every company is going global, and virtually every aspect of the company is affected.
There are many different careers that an International Business professional can pursue. Professionals in this field typically combine this specialty with an interest or talent they hold in a particular aspect of business. For example, an International Business student who enjoys marketing may seek out opportunities in the marketing department of companies that conduct business globally, and an individual with a hobby of investing in the stock market may be a good fit as a company's representative to overseas shareholders.
There are four main types of international business career arrangements:
- Live in the U.S. and work for a U.S. company that does business abroad, with little or no travel involved
- Live in the U.S. and travel abroad frequently to represent a U.S. company
- Live in a foreign country while working for a U.S. company, and travel back to the U.S. occasionally or rarely
- Live in the U.S. and work for a company that is based overseas with little or no travel involved
While the opportunities are endless, below are a few of the most common positions available in the International Business career field:
- Foreign Service Officer/Diplomat - This group of workers is employed by the U.S. government to live abroad and help protect the interests and the citizens of the U.S. A large part of their job is to promote peace and cooperation with their country of residence. Entry into this field is competitive, and those interested must pass the Foreign Service Officer Test and agree to live anywhere in the world. Salary is dependent upon years of service and level of education, and officers may also receive additional allowances for living and travel. According to the U.S. Department of Affairs, there are five different career tracks for diplomats:
- Management Officers - run U.S. embassies and make diplomacy work
- Consular Officers - protect Americans abroad and strengthen U.S. border security
- Economic Officers - promote U.S. economic and trade interests abroad
- Political Officers - interpret events and situations related to U.S. interests
- Public Diplomacy Officers - broaden understanding of American values and policies
- International Account Rep - Also called International Sales Rep or Executive, this position is responsible for cultivating and/or maintaining relationships with overseas clients. Compensation may include sales bonuses and is usually higher than other sales positions because of the extensive travel that is typically required.
- International Marketing/Sales Analyst -This position conducts market research to determine which areas overseas might provide good opportunity for the sale of a company's product or service. Once they are identified, the analysts will do additional research to find out how to sell that product successfully in the new market.
- International Mergers and Acquisitions Specialist - When a company is looking to partner with or purchase an existing company abroad, the mergers and acquisitions specialist will seek out potential businesses and markets that would be conducive to the company's goals. This includes:
- Identifying the best geographic, cultural, and political location for the company to expand
- Researching the prospective businesses (such as their financials, employees, and facilities)
- Negotiating the purchase or partnership with the potential business
- Making sure the country's business laws regarding partnerships and mergers are followed
- Helping to implement the new relationship with that business
- International Product Manager - Whereas international account reps focus on customer relationships, product managers concentrate more on the product and product development. They take ownership of a specific product or product line and typically help to design, enhance, market, sell, and get customer feedback about the product.
- Import/Export Agent - Also referred to as Brokers, this career bridges the gap between the producer and retailer(s) of that product. Import/export agents work with a manufacturer from one country to buy a product at wholesale, often receiving a volume discount for buying a large quantity. They then resell it to companies in another country. This arrangement can be very beneficial to both the manufacturer and the retailer because:
- The manufacturer can produce their product faster if they are filling one large order rather than many small ones
- The manufacturer has less overhead by managing one giant account rather than a large number of smaller ones
- The retailer also has less overhead if they buy a number of different products from one import/export agent, rather than having accounts with many manufacturers
- The retailer would pay a much higher price if they bought from the manufacturer on their own because they only need a small amount of the product and therefore would not qualify for the volume discount
- Neither company has to worry about the obstacles and challenges of doing business with a different country or culture
Whichever country, culture, or area of business is most interesting to you, there's a career for you in International Business.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

Windows RT 8.1 will be delivered through the Windows Store. You'll receive a notification that an update is available, and a link to take you to download it. It'll download and install, and afterwards, you should have an updated OS with all your documents and apps still in place.
Posted 06 October 2013 - 14:55
Wow OK thanks for letting me know. I appreciate it.
I have to admit for being someone against Windows 8 and I still love my Windows 7 for desktop for a tablet experience 8 is not too bad. I was able to this time find my way around better than before and even added a Hotmail account as my Microsoft account.
For Desktop Windows 7 is still best but for Tablet I can see the benefits of 8 and now with 8.1 it should better. I wish the tiles where not the boring static colors. If they were more 3D or embossed like and more animated for me personally would be aesthetically pleasing.
I do have a question about apps. Is there a Facebook app yet? What about alternate browsers? Not a big fan of METRO IE. It seems Chrome or Firefox can't be installed

Welcome to the world of Windows RT on ARM CPU. You can't run x86 apps. And both Google and Mozilla are late to the Modern App party (like so many other developpers).
But you do have desktop Internet Explorer, so all Website should work even better than apps.
The biggest problem for me with RT is the game selection, if you compare with iOS or Android. Where is Electronic Art? Where is... everybody?

Location It's just a few minutes' walk from the hotel to the historical town centre, castle and a number of internationally acclaimed wine-growing estates. Hotel Just like its 123 rooms, the hotel is furnished in the Anglo-American style of the 1930s to 1950s. The eight conference rooms are suitable for events, banquets and receptions for up to 110 guests. The restaurant mainly serves regional specialities and in the summer months guests can enjoy a magnificent all-you-can-eat barbecue buffet out on the terrace. With its original Wurlitzer jukebox, the hotel bar is the place to meet in the evening. The hotel also has its own Spa World with sauna and jacuzzi where guests can come to relax.

Why is Java so popular as a first language to teach beginners? To me it seems like a terrible choice:
It's statically typed. Static typing isn't useful unless you care a lot about either performance or scaling to large projects.
It requires tons of boilerplate to get the simplest code up and running. Try explaining "Hello, world" to someone who's never programmed before.
It only handles the middle levels of abstraction well and is single-paradigm, thus leaving out a lot of important concepts. You can't program at a very low level (pointers, manual memory management) or a very high level, (metaprogramming, macros) in it.
In general, Java's biggest strength (i.e. the reason people use it despite the shortcomings of the language per se) is its libraries and tool support, which is probably the least important attribute for a beginner language. In fact, while useful in the real world these may negatives from a pedagogical perspective as they can discourage learning to write code from scratch.

The bayonet assembly is part of the solenoid assembly for the 510 battery operated controller and the 337 valves. The bayonet assembly is attached below the solenoid and has a 3/4" 20 thread.
The bayonet assembly includes the bayonet housing, yellow puppet or magnet, large O-ring and small O-ring. The bayonet assembly holds the solenoid on our C017-C029, 3/4" through 2" (DIG 510-075 to 510-200) battery operated controllers and model C026 - C028 solenoids with inline valve (DIG model 337.xxx). Inside the bayonet assembly the puppet can be found supported by a large O-ring and on the bottom of the bayonet assembly the small O-ring can be found, supporting the solenoid opening and closing. If any of the bayonet assembly parts are missing, the valve will stay open.
Steps to replace a bayonet assembly or any part of the bayonet assembly on a 3/4", 1", 1-1/2" or 2" inline valve of the battery operated controller (DIG 510 series):
1. Shut off the water supply to the valve.
2. Turn on the valve via the manual lever or via the solenoid - first make sure that the valve is not under pressure and then drain the valve.
3. Remove the controller from the solenoid and then turn the solenoid counter-clockwise to remove.
a. If a new bayonet assembly is needed, remove the old bayonet by turning it counter clockwise (bayonet will "rub" slightly on the flow control base upon removal/installation). After removing it make sure that the small O-ring model C102 located between the bayonet assembly and the valve solenoid thread is on the bottom of the bayonet assembly; if not, see if it is on the valve solenoid thread bottom. If the 0-ring is missing add a new small O-ring, otherwise the valve will never close.
b. Inside the bayonet assembly you will see the puppet model C104. If the bayonet assembly is empty, then you need to have a new puppet. The puppet assures that the valve will open and close; if it is missing the valve will stay open. Check the puppet and make sure that the puppet is moving up and down freely and that the yellow plastic housing is on the top. (If yellow plastic housing is upside down and you can see the puppet spring, then the valve will remain open.) Change the position of the puppet if needed.
c. If the solenoid is leaking then the large 0-ring model C103 is missing or damaged. Remove the solenoid by turning it clockwise, and check the O-ring. The O-ring may be inside the bayonet housing or on the outlet side of the solenoid. If needed, replace using the new O-ring model C103.
4. After completing the repair or replacement, turn the water on again and test the valve under pressure to make sure no leak occurs, using the manual leaver.

The sister of one of these thugs blames the community , if they had more things to do this wouldn't have happened. How about the parents raising their kid, knowing what they are doing knowing where they are who they are hanging out with what they are doing on the internet etc....... where did they get a gun ? and how come the mom or dad didnt know they had it? What happened to a parent being a parent. Stop blaming everyone else if your going to have them raise them be active in their life be a parent! We didn't do this when we were "bored" never once did I or anyone I know think Gee Im bored lets go shoot someone. These kids were all over social media life goal to be a rapper. This kid was dancing and joking when he was arrested how sad that they can't get the death penalty. Hopefully they will be in prison the rest of their lives and cannot reproduce. Its disgusting that someone out for a jog gets gunned down shot in the back and its your fault because you didnt keep my kid busy. Way to take responsibility!

This would be a perfect situation for a public hanging.

Bill, you are missed in region 13 as both a judge and a participant. Do you intend to come bacK?

To answer your question though JD, I love the west. The NW in particular. My stepdaughter and granddaughter are in Denver. My son, stepson, and a couple of grandkids are in Alaska.
For the foreseeable future, we are going to be on this side of the world. My parents are up in age and my wife's mother is in a nursing home. Those are the primary reasons we are here. We can get to either of them within a days drive. Maybe one of these days... I do try to get out west for a hunting trip every year if I can though... NM is high on my list if I can ever pull a tag for Bighorn Sheep or one of the premium elk tags!
Bill Davis
Bill. Region 13 is NM, CO, WY, and NE in the UKC-HRC world. Don't expect you would know that, since that is not your venue. AKC clubs in this area include TX, AZ, NM, CO, UT, NE, OK, NV, CA, or as far as you want to travel... Bill S. was a prominent judge in the HRC area until recently. HT's and FT's cover a wide geographic area in the SW.
We frequently travel more than one day to HT's.
I have contacts for private landowner tags for elk and sheep. You will have to PM me though.
Disgusting, huh...? JD

"twist" to the story or something along those lines.............that something had happened outside the court room.
Hubby changed the chan and by the time I realized what he had done it was to late to get that story. I need to hide the T.V. control I guess if I want to watch something other than his favorite chan.

The combat itself is very different from what I can tell. Outside of the fact they destroyed the iconic protagonist of the series the combat is not the same at all.
How you can say the gameplay isn't the same? The mission structure is the same. The items are the same. Orbs perform the same purpose. And combat is largely the same except for having different weapons and a few slightly different controls. So what about the gameplay is different/worse?
Not saying this game is bad, but certainly it isn't much like previous DMC games.
DMC1-4 had a sort of combat that no other third person beat-em-ups had. DMC: Devil May Cry itself doesn't have the same essence.

OKALOOSA ISLAND — As the summer season reaches its peak, county officials are cracking down on tourists who leave items on the beach overnight.
Lifeguards are tagging everything from tent canopies to coolers and removing the items if they're still on the beach by the time lifeguards start work the next day, which is 9 a.m.
"We've gotten into the height of the season so we're seeing more of those items showing up," Okaloosa County Public Works Director John Hofstad said. "We had a great spring ... very few violations of that new ordinance."
A recent change to the law that governs county parks prohibits visitors from leaving personal items on the beach between the hours of mid-night and 7:30 a.m.
The abandoned items have been a growing problem in recent years, said Tracey Vause, beach safety director for Okaloosa County.
The most common scenario is beachgoers setting up a tent canopy on the beach, removing the cover at the end of the day and leaving the frame to sit overnight.
"That kind of secures their territory on the beach for the week they're here," Vause said. "The problem with that is it impedes the beach cleaning contractor from doing his work."
Abandoned items also threaten the welfare of nesting sea turtles, which are protected by federal law, Vause said.
"If we see these types of items, we put a tag on it — and it's a big, chartreuse green, can't-miss-it-from-a-mile-away tag," he said. "If it's tagged and still there the next day, it's removed."
Since the start of the summer season, lifeguards have confiscated roughly 100 tents.
"It has made a significant difference," Hofstad said. "We're seeing fewer items left on the beach than last summer."
The items that are not claimed are discarded by the county.
"Some folks do (get frustrated)," Vause said. "They come and find us and are like, 'I want my tent back!' and we'll point to it."
Vause said the lifeguards who tag the beach items work in those specific areas each day.
"And throughout the day he's making contact with these people who have been tagged and warned," Vause said. "So they're getting a warning from a tag and a face-to-face contact explanation from a lifeguard."
The county also installed more than 60 new signs explaining the new rule at beach access ways and dune walkovers across Okaloosa Island.

The NY Safe act states: You may have one "evil feature" on your AR-15. so if I install one of these-------> http://ubbt.net/frs15stock1.html I no longer own an "assault rifle". By replacing the grip with this new stock, I no longer own an "assault rifle"
Care to explain to everyone why??? the gun fires the same. The gun loads the same?? the gun (basically) looks the same??
why is it no longer an "Assault rifle"

Reporter Mark Geary is at Fort Irwin in California covering National Guard Training with Iowa soldiers.
You can't simply fly to Fort Irwin, California from Cedar Rapids, or any other airport for that matter. Instead, you have to fly in to a nearby city. The Iowa National Guard suggested flying into Las Vegas, so that's what we did. We took the Sunday night Allegiant direct flight to Vegas. Nearly everyone on board was on their way to go on vacation and gamble. There's a two hour time difference between Vegas and Iowa. Ft. Irwin is in the same time zone as Las Vegas. When it's 10:00 p.m. in Cedar Rapids, it's 8:00 p.m. on the west coast.
Once we arrived in Las Vegas, we gathered all of our gear and luggage, rented a car and headed to our hotel in Barstow, California. The drive took about three hours. Barstow is the nearest city to Ft. Irwin. It's about 30 miles away. Because we arrived so late, we couldn't check-in to Fort Irwin until the following morning.
By 9:00 a.m. Monday morning, we were at Ft. Irwin. I've never been to a desert before. The base is located in the middle of the Mojave Desert. It's dusty, hot and dry here. You can see for miles. Mountains are everywhere you look. The military chooses to train here because the terrain and climate mimic many portions of the Middle East. Once you drive through the gates of Ft. Irwin (also called the National Training Center or NTC), you feel like you're in another country. It's nothing like the previous two bases where the Iowa National Guard has trained. We visited soldiers at Camp Ripley, MN and Camp Shelby, MS back in June and August. Both of those places felt like forest preserves. Here at NTC, I have yet to see a tree.
The NTC is the military's premier training facility. As a result, there is a lot security and protocol that everyone (including media) must follow. We spent about three hours discussing policies and procedure with the Public Affairs Office. Next, we headed out to Forward Operating Base (FOB) Denver. This is the FOB where much of the leadership and coordinating team resides. All of the FOBs at Ft. Irwin are named after American cities. The FOBs don't resemble the cities they're named after. And, no, none of the FOBs are named after a city in Iowa. We met up with Public Affairs Officer Major Mike Wunn at FOB Denver. Maj. Wunn has worked with us before during our visits to Ripley and Shelby. It was great to see a familiar face. We spent a few hours touring Denver and also reviewed more policies and procedures. Denver is full of tents that house everything from soldiers' living quarters to critical computer equipment.
Next, we loaded our gear into Humvees and rode along on a military convoy to FOB King. Driving through the desert is bumpy, dusty and slow. Vehicles travel at about 20 mph. People in Iowa complain about potholes. Take one trip through the desert and you'll never complain about a pothole again. The ground is uneven, cracked and full of gaps and holes. Small bushes and huge mountains dot the landscape. You feel like you're driving through fog, but it's actually dust.
The distance between FOB Denver and FOB King was not that far, but it took well over an hour to complete the journey. Once we finally arrived, military officials told us we may or may not be spending the night there. We're supposed to spend the bulk of our time at FOB Seattle. At this point, we didn't know if we were leaving that evening for FOB Seattle or if we would depart the following morning. Everyone was hungry and it was dinner time, so we headed over to the "Chow Tent." They served up beef, carrots, peas, mashed potatoes and bread. It wasn't that bad. I liked the mashed potatoes better than anything else.
Later on in the evening, we spent some time with the medics. We've tried to learn more about them at Camp Shelby and Camp Ripley, but never had the opportunity to spend much time with them until now. The medics may not get all the "glory" of fighting on the frontlines, but they are the men and women who save soldiers' lives. While at the NTC, they're participating in a variety of training exercises to prepare for Afghanistan. They simulate injuries and ailments. Soldiers told us they're trying to develop a "muscle memory" so that when they are in the Middle East and a patient comes into their facility, they'll know how to react immediately. When troops get injured, they're obviously under a lot of stress. Therefore, the medics must remain calm and confident to put the injured soldiers at ease.
This evening, we tried to start putting our stories together, but encountered equipment problems. We were unable to load video from the camera onto our computer to edit. Tomorrow morning, we're going to contact KCRG staff to see if they can help us troubleshoot.
We'll be here until Friday. It's the same crew of journalists as before: Mark Geary (Reporter), Dane Firkus (videographer), Jim Slosiarek (photographer). We've all enjoyed following the Iowa National Guard and we're looking forward to telling you all about the NTC.

Prompt VA benefits plummet under Obama
At a majority of the regional offices – including Los Angeles – the VA employs fewer people than it did two years ago, according to the VA's internal documents. The San Diego office has 68 more workers than it did in September 2010.
"You have a workforce that is completely burnt out, and there is no help in sight," said Darren Foster, a Gulf War veteran who worked for the VA for 15 years before leaving in October. He now processes workers' compensation claims for the Labor Department, in an office that he says is more efficient and better managed.
"It was a hard decision to leave," Foster said. "I love helping veterans. But I just couldn't do it anymore."

In Africas ancient southwest corner, two extraordinary deserts sit side by side. Water is in short supply, yet these deserts are somehow full of life because the creatures that live here have turned the rules of survival on their head. This film celebrates natures ingenuity, no matter how tough it gets. In the Kalahari scrub lands, clever meerkats are outsmarted by a wily bird, solitary and belligerent black rhinos get together to party and giant insects stalk huge flocks of birds. Rain almost never falls in the Namib, instead it must make do with vaporous, vanishing fog. The creatures in this, the worlds oldest desert, have gone to the extremes spiders wheel to escape and a desert giraffe fights to defend his scant resources in the greatest giraffe battle ever filmed.
East Africa is a land which is constantly changing. To survive here, creatures must be able to deal with unpredictable twists and turns wet turning to dry, famine to feast, cold to hot no matter how hostile and unpredictable it becomes. From dense forests, to snow capped peaks, steamy swamps to endless savannah, this unique and varied land is also a haven for life it supports a higher density of large mammals than anywhere else on Earth. But away from the forever-travelling herds, there is a huge cast of other characters lizards that steal flies from the faces of lions, vast dinosaur-like birds who stalk catfish through huge wetlands, and elephants who battle for three days for the right to father the next generation. East Africa can be a cruel and unforgiving place, and when the stakes are high you must be prepared to take risks and gamble with your life.
The Congo rainforest covers the very heart of Africa, it is a dynamic and pulsating habitat, packed with life. From the competitive center of the forest to the open edge of the Atlantic Ocean, this is all about carving out space in a crowded world. Chimpanzees steal honey from hard-working sweat bees by engineering a large stick to smash open the nest. The elusive Picathartes symbolizes everything that is secret and ancient about the rainforest their bald heads are like molded marzipan and their nest of chicks look like bizarre, scraggy dinosaurs. When darkness falls, the atmosphere changes. Using specialist technology we discover a luminescent landscape as the forest glows in the dark. Tiny frogs battle it out using kung-fu moves then hide their precious eggs in folded blades of grass. Great herds of elephants gather at a mystery meeting place to socialize under cover of darkness, and the three-ton titan bulls cause the ground to shake as they meet in furious combat, terrifying the other animals and hurling trees to the ground with their passion. Here in the Congo, no matter how tough the competition, you must stand up and fight for yourself and your patch.
Southern Africa is a riot of life and color. But if it was not for two great ocean currents that sweep around and shape the continents Great Cape it would be a desert. This film celebrates the rejuvenating powers of the ocean. To the east, the warm Agulhas current flows south, generating clouds that roll inland creating the wettest place in southern Africa. Home to a magical fairy-tale butterfly ballet, the area is known as the Google rainforest as it was only discovered using satellite images in 2005. In the sea, the warm current sustains shoals of giant kingfish and creates some of the most beautiful seascapes ever seen the Bazaruto Archipelago. To the west is the cold Benguela current. It is home to more great white sharks than any other sea on Earth. Although the current provides little rain, it delivers instead moisture-laden fog to the land, and supports an incredible desert garden, where monkey beetles sleep in a bed of petals. But perhaps most impressive is where the two currents meet. The clash of warm and cold water creates one of the worlds most fabulous natural spectacles, South Africas sardine run. This is the greatest gathering of predators on the planet, including Africas largest, the Brydes Whale.
North Africa is home to the greatest desert on Earth, the Sahara. This vast wilderness, the size of the United States, is the toughest part of the African continent the sun rules mercilessly here. In this haunting wilderness, dunes sing, sandstorms stretch for a thousand miles, and rain may not fall for 50 years. But it wasnt always like this. This is a story of an apocalypse and how, when nature is overrun, some are forced to flee, some endure, but a few seize the opportunity to establish a new order. On the fringes of the Great Desert, Grevys zebras battle over dwindling rivers, and weird naked mole rats avoid the heat by living a bizarre underground existence. Within the desert, camels seek out water with the help of their herders, while tiny barn swallows must go it alone and navigate across thousands of square miles of barren sand to find a solitary life-saving oasis. In the heart of the Sahara very little life can survive the suns onslaught. Just one animal takes on the midday sun, and it needs a spacesuit to do it. The silver ant waits until all other creatures have fled the scorching dunes before finally emerging to feed in peace.
Africa: The Future
Over 80 years of wildlife filmmaking, Discovery and the BBC have chronicled the greatest changes in a continent that the world has ever seen. With more than a billion people, Africa might now be at its tipping point, but it is also the one continent that has not lost its biggest animals despite the fact that mankind has lived here longer than anywhere else on the planet! So, in a quest to save Africa's most iconic species, what lessons learned from the rest of the world can we bring back to our ancestral homeland?
