Throughout the year, we also made significant progress in further developing our next generation of growth assets with ratings and advertising gains at our emerging US networks, including Animal Planet, Investigation Discovery and the Science Channel. DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS Our US fl agship Discovery Channel delivered viewership growth in primetime in 2010 among its key 25-54 demographic. Perennial hits SHARK WEEK, DEADLIEST CATCH, STORM CHASERS and SWAMP LOGGERS all delivered their best seasons ever. Discovery Channel also saw strong performance in 2010 from existing franchises MAN VS. WILD, MYTHBUSTERS and DIRTY JOBS, and sophomore hits DUAL SURVIVAL and MAN, WOMAN, WILD. In addition, Discovery Channel built a significant pipeline of new series that began premiering toward the end of the year, and will continue to debut throughout 2011. Early successes that are attracting large audiences include AUCTION KINGS and GOLD RUSH: ALASKA. In fact, GOLD RUSH: ALASKA was the highest rated new series on Discovery since DEADLIEST CATCH and was the #1 show on all of television on Friday nights for men in January and February 2011. This success, along with other strong premieres, including FLYING WILD ALASKA and SONS OF GUNS, made January 2011 the second best January ever for Discovery in primetime among men with viewership up 11%. February growth was even stronger. Going forward, with a robust slate of 25 new series set to debut, we are confident that 2011 will be a strong year for the network. 2010 ANNUAL REPORT TLC, the company’s second US fl agship, recorded numerous wins in 2010. During the year, TLC firmly established itself as a top 10 network in all female demographics with 31 series averaging over one million viewers. Established hits, such as SAY YES TO THE DRESS, CAKE BOSS and POLICE WOMEN, continued to perform well and were leveraged to create multi-program franchises with additional extensions in new categories and cities. With a multitude of returning viewer favorites, such as WHAT NOT TO WEAR, THE LITTLE COUPLE and TODDLERS AND TIARAS, special events such as SARAH PALIN’S ALASKA, and new successes like SISTER WIVES and DC CUPCAKES, TLC created a deep and diverse programming lineup that resonated with the network’s core female demographic. Much like Discovery, with a stable of established hits and a promising slate ahead, TLC is poised to build on its ratings strength and deliver increased advertising revenue in 2011, and will remain a key priority for the company. Also, in 2010, TLC went global. We began the international rollout of TLC that is expected to bring the network to more than 100 million subscribers around the world by the end of 2011. This global rollout of TLC will provide Discovery with a valuable female-targeted international flagship to complement Discovery Channel and further diversify and strengthen the appeal of our portfolio. DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS At our emerging networks, Investigation Discovery (ID) continued to build on the rapid growth it has achieved since its launch in 2008. In fact, in 2010, ID was the fastest growing network in all of cable in both viewership and distribution. ID’s viewership was up 64% among adults 25-54 in 2010, and it ranked among the top 30 ad supported networks for women. Capping off this success, ID achieved a major milestone in the first two months of 2011 when it surpassed the 1.0 household delivery mark for the first time with 14 separate shows, including: ON THE CASE WITH PAULA ZAHN; STOLEN VOICES, BURIED SECRETS and NIGHTMARE NEXT DOOR. With distribution expected to reach 80 million homes, and sustained ratings momentum, ID is poised to deliver even stronger viewership and advertising growth in 2011. ID remains a key priority for Discovery. 2010 ANNUAL REPORT Animal Planet and Science Channel were also investment priorities for the company. Driven by investment in new content, Animal Planet saw viewership gains of 7% among adults 25-54 in 2010. Since the more aggressive brand and programming slate was introduced in 2008, the network has steadily become a much broader, more diverse brand, appealing to a wider audience. WHALE WARS and RIVER MONSTERS, the two highest rated series in Animal Planet history, both delivered double-digit ratings growth in 2010, and the network added three more strong series to its slate with FATAL ATTRACTIONS, ANIMAL HOARDERS and PIT BULLS AND PAROLEES. Animal Planet will remain a key investment priority in 2011 and, with more upcoming titles premiering throughout the year, should continue to expand its audience and advertising revenue. Similarly, content investment at Science Channel drove viewership up 22% in 2010. This growth was led by the hit series THROUGH THE WORMHOLE WITH MORGAN FREEMAN. Now in more than 80 countries, Science Channel and the science category overall remain a priority in the year ahead. The channel is poised to continue its growth with strong performing new series like AN IDIOT ABROAD and a full slate of new and returning programming scheduled to premiere throughout 2011. DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS 2010 ANNUAL REPORT Discovery’s International Networks continued to grow audience and reach in 2010. With 140 networks in over 180 countries around the world, Discovery has one of the most extensive international footprints in the industry, including many emerging markets across Eastern Europe, Asia and Latin America where pay-TV growth is expanding rapidly. The company’s focus is capitalizing on this growth by investing in new brands and stronger content across our portfolio to deliver a broader and deeper audience proposition. A key part of this initiative in 2010 was the first phase of a global rollout of TLC as an international female- targeted flagship to complement Discovery Channel. By the end of 2011, we expect TLC will reach 100

    11/27/2017 Your Muscular System | Discovery Kids

    11/27/2017 Your Muscular System | Discovery Kids So what do muscles do? Muscles move cows, snakes, worms and humans. Muscles move you! Without muscles you couldn’t open your mouth, speak, shake hands, walk, talk, or move your food through your digestive system. There would be no smiling, blinking, breathing. You couldn’t move anything inside or outside you. The fact is, without muscles, you wouldn’t be alive for very long! Do I have lots of muscles? Indeed. On average, probably 40% of your body weight is in muscles. You have over 630 muscles that move you. Muscles can’t push. They pull. You may ask yourself, if muscles can’t push how can you wiggle your fingers in both directions, back and forth, back and forth? The answer? Muscles often work in pairs so that they can pull in different or opposite directions. How do muscles move? The cells that make up muscles contract and then relax back to original size. Tiny microscopic fibers in these cells compress by sliding in past each other like a sliding glass door being opened and then shut again. The cells of your muscles use chemical energy from the food you eat to do this. Without food, and particular kinds of nutrients, your muscles wouldn’t be able to make the energy to contract! Some muscles are known as “voluntary” — that is, they only work when you specifically tell them to. Do you want to say something? Or swing a bat? Or clap your hands? These are voluntary movements. Others, like the muscular contracting of your heart, the movement of your diaphragm so that you can breathe, or blinking your eyes are automatic.

    December 13, 2012 TF1 & Discovery Communications Continue Exclusive Negotiations The TF1 Board of Directors, meeting on December 12, 20012, gave Nonce Paolini authority to conntinue and finalise the exclusive negotiations with Discovery Communications, the world’s #1 non-fiction media company, as announced on November 13, 2012. These negotiations are aimed at forging a strategic alliance to create value in the numerous complementary activities of the two media companies, in three key areas: Develop the futture activities of Eurosport A relationship between Eurosport (the only pan-European sport channel) and Discovery Communications (whose channels are available to 1.8 billion subscribers in 217 countries), would unlock synergies and complementary capabilities, particularly at the European level, in content (sports programming, entertainment, documentaries, etc) and in development opportunities (geographical expansion, new product launches, digital rollout, etc). To this end, Discovery would take a 20% minority interest in the Eurosport group (Eurosport International and Eurosport France). The acquisition of the 20% interest would involve cash consideration of approximately €170 million ($221.6 million). Discovery also would have the possibility (via an option granted by TF1) of raising its interestt to 51% in two years’ time. If Discovery exercised its option, TF1 would have the abillity to exercise a put option over the remaining 49%, which potentially would increase Discovery’s ownership to 100%. Develop pay TV content in France The alliance also would aim to enhance the output of documentary, magazine and current afffaairs channels in order to offer French distributors a flagship range of theme channels built around the content and brand portfolios of the two groups.
