Video Title: (Art And Science Collide To Reveal Matisse Mysteries) Video Duration: 3:54 From: NorthwesternU Category: Education henri matisse was a painter of vivid colors. from 1913 to 1917, however, he radically changed his style and palette. collaborators from northwestern university and the art insute of chicago bring this home with a fascinating scientific deconstruction of matisse's famous painting "bathers by a river." the artist had tamped down earlier layers of pinks, greens and blues into a somber palette of mottled grays punctuated with some pinks and greens. "matisse: radical invention, 1913-1917," opening july 18 at the museum of modern art moma in new york and recently on exhibit at the art insute, focuses on this critical period of experimentation and is much inspired by "bathers by a river," which the artist said was one of the five most pivotal works of his career. in reworking this painting and many others, matisse left a bounty of tantalizing clues for art historians and conservation scientists interested in learning more about his new methods and intentions.

Video Title: (New Species Of Leopard With Largest Fangs In Cat World) Video Duration: 1:30 From: VirtueProductions Category: Science and Technology this clouded leopard which feasts on monkeys, deer and pigs has been discovered living deep in the borneo rain forest. long thought to be identical to the clouded leopards living on mainland south east asia, genetic annaysis has shown that the bornean big cat is in fact a separate species. scientists have counted at least 40 key differences in the dna of the two felines - making the two species of clouded leopard almost as different as a lion is to a tiger. some of the differences are clear to the naked eye, with the elliptical spots or 'clouds' which give it its name, being smaller and darker on the island variety. the bornean clouded leopard also has darker fur than its mainland cousin. dr andrew kitchener, of national museums scotland, said: "the moment we started comparing the skins of the mainland clouded leopard with the leopard found on borneo, it was clear we were comparing two different species. "it's incredible that no one has ever noticed these differences." the research, which forms part of the wwf's heart of borneo conservation project, brings the number of new species to have emerged from the island's jungles in the last year to over 50. plants and animals new to science include two species of tree frog and 30 types of fish, including a catfish with an adhesive belly that allows it to stick to rocks. the scientists say the remote, and for a long time, inaccessible, forests of the world's third largest island are one of the 'final frontiers for science - a ltbgt...lt bgt Tags: "Top Favorites", New "news", "new york times", "newegg", "newgrounds", "new movies", "new dvd releases", "new songs", "new york", "new york post", "", New Species Of Leopard With Largest Fangs In Cat World

Video Title: (Post 2010 Retrospective) Video Duration: 3:42 From: postcoml Category: Science and Technology see what post has achieved so far, as of the october 2010 finale of the international census of marine life. the pacific ocean shelf tracking post project has been an important contributor to the decade-long census of marine life, as one of their 17 projects. post has brought new information and discoveries about the distribution, movement and survival of over 16000 individual animals representing 18 different species, on the continental shelf in the northeast pacific ocean. post's mission is to further understanding of the behaviour of marine animals through the operation of a large-scale ocean telemetry and data management system. post serves as an accessible research tool for academe, resource agencies and the public. long-term monitoring of marine animals will contribute to the conservation and stewardship of marine resources.

Video Title: (Tiger Of The Snow Pt 5) Video Duration: 10:44 From: MsEmberScorpio Category: Pets and Animals tigers of the snow spotlights the siberian tiger, which once roamed over the wide ranges of northern asia but now is limited to a tiny region on the sea of japan. footage of their active muscles, their piercing eyes, their regal pelt, all attest to the beauty of a dying breed. russian and american scientists have banded together to study the 300 remaining not-so-gentle giants in an effort to save them from extinction. you'll see these men and women track tigers from helicopters, brave a mother's fury to tag her young, and strive to breed them in captivity. the effort is herculean, given the mive logging and rampant poaching which cuts down the population and the tigers' territory, but there is hope that we can educate the next generation to protect these beautiful animals and their environment while there's still time. after all, a planet without tigers would be a much poorer place, and tigers of the snow shows exactly what we'd miss.
