Beginning with the body's nonspecific defenses, composed of the skin, tears, mucus, saliva, and stomach acid, the program then digs into the details of the specific defenses: the lymphatic system, the thymus gland, the spleen, and bone marrow. Three distinct types of white blood cells are classified, and the complexities of the humoral and cell-mediated immune responses are carefully sorted out. The program also describes a number of problems with the human immune system, running the gamut from allergies to AIDS.

Pritchett (of the Second World War); he admonishes contemporary newspapers, with examples from the tabloid press, for having abandoned what he sees as true journalistic principles, and presents other examples of what he considers appropriate and praiseworthy reporting.","stream","[]","[]","['Writing', 'Composition (Language arts)']","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_d22zy3x1/version/100001/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=2816" "fod100028078","","E-Mail Etiquette","[2006], c2000","19 min","[]","There is little doubt that e-mail is an extremely useful innovation that has changed, and continues to change, the way we communicate. However, the fact that e-mail is different from both voice- and paper-based communication can be a source of frustration for many people. This program gives viewers an understanding of the conventions that have been developed by e-mail users over the years to facilitate effective communication. In addition, the video exposes many of the myths that exist regarding such issues as e-mail privacy, and warns of possible dangers when using e-mail. The words ""spamming"" and ""flaming"" may not make sense to everyone, but chances are they've come across examples of this type of behavior in their e-mail usage. The animated ""cyber postman,"" who features throughout the video, has seen every example of bad e-mail usage you could imagine. With his assistance we provide a comprehensive introduction to the etiquette of using e-mail.","stream","[]","[]","['Business communication', 'Office practice', 'Interpersonal communication', 'Success in business', 'Employees', 'Customer services', 'Office management', 'Filing systems', 'Communication', 'Communication in organizations', 'Typewriting', 'Training']","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_0w90peun/version/100001/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=28078" "fod100002799","","Kate Chopin.

Cicero's letters describe (and coins portray) Caesar, Pompey, Brutus, Marc Antony, Cleopatra, and Augustus; the appearance of art in the service of the state is defined by Virgil and illustrated by artifacts. The progression of emperors is recounted until the stability of Vespasian is reached; the next 150 years show the heyday of trade in the Roman Empire, and the goods, from rare glass made in Alexandria to muffin pans made in Gaul, show the variety and extent of the world of Roman objects.","stream","[]","['Europe']","['Civilization, Ancient']","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_6z7wlmdu/version/100001/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=2783" "fod100002782","","Sumer, Babylon, Assyria.

In the process, it illuminates a whole political era in post-World War II American history and explores themes that remain predominant in politics today: the American ambivalence toward intellectuals in politics, anti-liberalism, the electorate's preoccupation with the personality of politicians, and the influence of television. The program is divided into two parts: the first, 1952, deals primarily with Stevenson's nomination by the Democratic Party-one of the few genuine drafts in American political history; the second, Dura Est Ovicipitum Via (The Way of the Egghead Is Hard), examines Stevenson's interest in the Third World and his quest for a resolution of Cold War tensions.","stream","[]","['United States']","['Political participation', 'World War, 1939-1945']","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_n2sgkh2c/version/100001/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=2763" "fod100002762","","Forensic science.
