    Ruj : RTM(BPR)/SM/JLD.1 (156) SIARAN MEDIA Dokumentari “Rise of The Continents” Tampilkan Hos Iain Stewart di TV1 KUALA LUMPUR, 14 Jun 2016 – Bersama Profesor Iain Stewart mendedahkan bagaimana benua ikonik telah diwujudkan, dan bagaimana keadaan huru-hara masa lalu telah membentuk kehidupan kita hari ini melatari dokumentari bertajuk “Rise of The Continents” mulai 25 Jun ini, setiap Sabtu, pukul 10.00 malam di TV1. “Rise of The Continents” tampil dengan empat episod berbeza bersama hos yang juga ahli geologi dikenali Iain Stewart. Siri ini, berdasarkan analogi bagaimana 250 juta tahun pada masa akan datang, semua benua akan berlanggar antara satu sama lain yang kemudiannya membentuk Pangea baru, dengan Eurasia tepat di tengah-tengahnya. Episod pertama di Afrika mengetengahkan petunjuk seperti mercu tanda yang menakjubkan Afrika, kekayaan mineral dan hidupan liar, Iain Stewart menunjukkan bagaimana benua Afrika telah ditubuhkan dari bangkai ‘supercontinent’ lama yang telah hilang. Antara lain, penciptaan Victoria Falls, lombong berlian Sierra Leone, rangka ikan paus awal dikebumikan di pasir, dan rumput yang kaya dengan nutrien daripada Serengeti Plains. Menyusul episod di Australia pula menunjukkan bagaimana perjalanan menjelajah benua Australia yang telah menjejaskan segala-galanya daripada sejarah Orang Asli dengan perlombongan moden, dan juga evolusi hidupan liar yang unik di Australia. Iain melawat sebuah bandar perlombongan opal dipanggil Coober Pedy untuk mencipta perpecahan Gondwana, dan juga menunjukkan bagaimana pembentukan Australia membawa kepada pembentukan sebuah akuifer bawah tanah yang luas. Episod ini juga menonjolkan tebing Australia Bight yang merupakan peringatan kepada semua bahawa Australia pernah menyertai Antartika. Tidak kurang menariknya episod dimana 200 juta tahun dahulu Utara dan Amerika Selatan telah diukir dari Pangaea, dan menolak ke arah barat sebagai benua pulau berasingan.

I am not an anthropologist document- ing scientific observations. What I am is a witness to history, a storytelling accidental tourist on a path less traveled, and a protector of rascals and innocents encountered during my journey into Mexico. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the excite- San Pedro Lagunillas ment I truly did experience. Oscar Wilde said something to the effect that the storyteller recognizes that recreation, not instruction, is the aim of conversation, and the storyteller is Zacualpan * * a far more civilized being than the blockhead who loudly expresses his disbelief in a story that is told for the amuse- ment of the company. I hope my story is both amusing and educational. Read on and judge for yourself.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.
