Its interests include geography, archaeology and natural science, the promotion of environmental and historical conservation, and the study of world culture and history. The NGS's historical mission is "to increase and diffuse geographic knowledge while promoting the conservation of the world's cultural, historical, and natural resources."[1] Its President and CEO since March 1998, John M. Fahey, Jr., says National Geographic's purpose is to inspire people to care about their planet. The Society is governed by a twenty-three member Board of Trustees composed of a group of distinguished educators, leading business executives,former governmental officials, and conservationists. The organization sponsors and funds scientific research and exploration. The Society publishes an official journal, National Geographic Magazine, and other magazines, books, school products, maps, other publications, web and film products in numerous languages and countries around the world. It also has an educational foundation that gives grants to education organizations and individuals to enhance geography education.[2] Its Committee for Research and Exploration has given grants for scientific research for most of the Society's history and has recently awarded its 9,000th grant for scientific research, conducted worldwide and often reported on by its media properties. Its various media properties reach about 360 million people around the world monthly.[3] National Geographic maintains a museum free for the public in its Washington, D.C. headquarters, and has helped to sponsor such popular traveling exhibits such as the "King Tut" exhibit featuring magnificent artifacts from the tomb of the young Egyptian Pharaoh, which toured in several American cities, ending its U.S. showing at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia. The Tut exhibit has now moved to London. Another National Geographic exhibit of "The Cultural Treasures of Afghanistan" opened in May 2008 at the National Gallery of Art in Washington. The exhibit will travel over the next eighteen months to the Houston Museum of Fine Arts, the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco, and the Metropolitan Museum in New York City. ___FOERaR___ Author: FOERaR Keywords: Most Dangerous Amazing Moments comedy wild life fury rituals challenges animals polar bears panda elephant lions tigers monkey rescue black african american creations unbelievable incredible terrific beautiful mountain forest IMAX National Geographic BBC Added: July 21, 2008

Cristi Adkins co-founder of Clintons 4 McCain, Author Phil Shenon, Author Brian Fagan, & Author Simon LeVay
from Third Rail's Podcast July 16, 2008
Clintons4mccain was started as a grass roots effort by Cristi Adkins, Anne Franklin, Peter BoykinPeter BoykinThis e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it and a team of Clinton Supporters who are adamantly opposed to the DNC, the media and Hollywood selecting their presidential nominee. âWeâre mad as hell and not going to simply fall in line like Stepford Wives.â The Clintons4mccain group plans to join other organizations across the country for a large army of dedicated soldiers devoted to ONE unified missionâ Operation NOBAMA. To Join the group, you can go to www.clintons4mccain.com as well as the myspace page, http://www.myspace.com/clintons4mccain and get the latest updates on the www.youtube.com/clintons4mccain channel. With the pressure building on Senator Obama and masses exodus, itâs only a matter of time before the DNC realizes itâs biggest failure in âVotergate 08â was the smoke and mirrors game they played on the entire 2008 Primary âSelectoralâ process. Philip Shenon is an investigative reporter with The New York Times, where he has worked since 1981. He was the lead reporter on the investigation of the September 11 commission and has held several of the most important assignments of the Washington Bureau, including chief Defense Department correspondent, diplomatic correspondent, Congressional correspondent and Justice Department Correspondent. He has reported for The Times from scores of countries across six continents. This is his first book. Prof. Fagan is an archaeological generalist, with expertise in the broad issues of human prehistory. He is the author or editor of 46 books, including seven widely used undergraduate college texts. Prof. Fagan has contributed over 100 specialist papers to many national and international journals. He is a Contributing Editor to American Archaeology and Discover Archaeology magazines, and formerly wrote a regular column for Archaeology Magazine. He serves on the Editorial Boards of six academic and general periodicals and has many popular magazine credits, including Scientific American and Gentleman's Quarterly. Prof. Fagan has been an archaeological consultant for many organizations, including National Geographic Society, Time/Life, EncyclopÃdia Britannica, and Microsoft Encarta. He has lectured extensively about archaeology and other subjects throughout the world at many venues, including the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, the National Geographic Society, the San Francisco City Lecture Program, the Smithsonian Institution, and the Getty Conservation Institute. In addition to extensive experience with the development of Public Television programs, Prof. Fagan was the developer/writer of Patterns of the Past, an NPR series in 1984-86. He has worked as a consultant for the BBC, RKO, and many Hollywood production companies on documentaries. In 1995 he was Senior Series Consultant for Time/Life Television's Lost Civilizations series. Prof. Fagan was awarded the 1996 Society of Professional Archaeologists' Distinguished Service Award for his untiring efforts to bring archaeology in front of the public. He also received a Presidential Citation Award from the Society for American Archaeology in 1996 for his work in textbook, general writing and media activities. He received the Society's first Public Education Award in 1997. Fagan is critical of non-traditional archaeology, and has written scathing reviews of rivals outside academia. His own stance, that archaeology should remain a compendium of material facts, is influential within the field. This view permits Fagan's well-known textbooks to skirt issues that are controversial or political, including issues regarding gender, migration, and pre-Columbian oceanic voyages. His expository style is a departure from the kind of serious theoretical questioning of an earlier generation of archaeologist, particularly the pre-World War II generation of archaeologists, whose work he encompasses, but whose theoretical leanings he ignores. Critics of Fagan, therefore, point to his similarity with later members of the Boasian school of anthropology, who were more interested in tracking objects on a grid than in explaining similarities among objects found in various places, or denoting how notions of similarity were to be constructed. Fagan appeared on The Daily Show on March 17th, 2008 to discuss 'climate change and its impact on human history.' Simon LeVay is a neuroscientist and author known for his studies about brain structures and sexual orientation. He is the co-author of a textbook on human sexuality and has also coauthored books on diverse topics such as earthquakes, volcanoes, parkinson's disease, and extraterrestrial life. LeVay has written a novel, Albrick's Gold, whose main character, Roger Cavendish, is partially based on LeVay himself. LeVay held positions at Harvard from 1974 to 1984, after which he worked at the Salk Institute from 1984-1993. While at the Salk institute he was also Adjunct Associate Professor of Biology at University of California, San Diego. Much of his early work looked at visual cortex in animals, especially cats. LeVay's textbook on human sexuality (now in its second edition) was described in one review as an exceptional book that addresses nearly every aspect of sexuality from multiple theoretical, historical, and cultural perspectives.

National Geographic: The Humanzee Experience in America
from Metacafe - Today's Videos by Metacafe June 25, 2008
In 2001, National Geographic set out to document two human/ape hybrids living in California. The struggles that the two men had to overcome were great, but not impossible. In this exclusive trailer, National Geographic stuns the world by proving that "Humanzees" are not only real, but fun, cool people who want the respect that they deserve. The two men featured in the Documentary still live in California, but hidden away from the public for security reasons. Special Thanks to Maureen Riley.
