Good stuff guys thanks...

The hangman, guillotine, gas chamber, firing squad, and electric chair are just a few of the ways in which societies have rid themselves of those who committed capital crimes. And throughout history, a select few have developed the devices that have carried out the mandate of the people. This is the dark story of those inventors and the macabre history of execution mechanics--from the first "stone" of antiquity, the dungeons of the Inquisition, and Nazi death camps to today's sterile injection chambers--with a peek at the future of death technology

"In the years after World War II, Soviet tank design improved rapidly, leaving the West far behind. With most military planners still assuming that the plains of Europe were the location most likely to see an outbreak of war, it became increasingly clear that the West, and particularly the United States, needed to develop a radically better tank. The result was the M1 Abrams.

The Abrams was faster, more powerful and better protected than any other tank ever made, it was also rushed into duty in an environment starkly different than the one the designers had in mind. It turned out it was more than up to the task, and the revolutionary weapon completely outclassed its Soviet-made counterparts in the Iraqi desert."

Modern Marvels - Surveillance Tech

http://www.veoh.com/videos/v15177164ecK8Qz3k

"In the world of surveillance, Big Brother is not only watching, he's also listening, analyzing, recording, scanning, and tracking ... every aspect of our lives. And with advanced surveillance technology, there's virtually no place to hide. SURVEILLANCE TECH examines some of the most important and potentially terrifying equipment the world has ever seen--or rather, not seen--in this thriving surveillance revolution. Check out parabolic microphones that pick up conversations a mile a way, cameras that learn what and who to photograph, RadarVision that "sees through walls", and Uninhabited Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). And explore the mind-bending future of surveillance technology, while, of course, reviewing its surprising history."

"See how an army of engineers and scientists worked to live up to JFK's extraordinary challenge, and meet the men who were chosen for the mission. From Cape Canaveral to the sea of tranquility, MODERN MARVELS APOLLO 11 documents every step along the way in this most remarkable of all journeys."

Modern Marvels - Apollo 13 http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=0C...&playnext=1

"By interviewing space agency veterans and using NASA's own mission records, APOLLO 13 brings this inspiring story to life. Faced with the prospect of an unmitigated disaster, NASA rallied and forged an unlikely triumph that, many feel, stands as their finest hour."

"Bread, the staff of life. Whether baked, fried or boiled it's the basic source of nourishment for half the world. Grill it, roast it, slice it, toast it, it's a wonder that two ingredients, flour and water, can be transformed into so many shapes and tastes. White bread may still be king in the U.S., but other breads are closing in. Now, the untold story of Bread, on Modern Marvels."

Bread http://www.veoh.com/browse/videos/category...7436820tj6pjAMC

"America protects its homeland with the most technologically advanced military force ever conceived. Although they fight 21st-century battles worldwide, the technology unleashed is directly descended from a war fought more than 140 years ago. This episode explores how the War between North and South was the first modern war, and the technology used in it was a quantum leap beyond any previous conflict. The machine gun, aerial reconnaissance, advanced battlefield medicine, instantaneous communication, ironclad ships, even the first aircraft carrier were all innovations developed during the Civil War. We'll investigate improvements in weapons, sea power, transportation, troop conveyance, food processing, medical care, and telecommunications. At a time when the nation was divided, Civil War technology revolutionized the way war was waged. Today, those technological milestones have evolved to ensure that our modern military has no equal in the world."
