Typecast, label, pigeonhole & it doesn't matter what word is used, they all mean the same thing -- to stereotype. As John Stossel reports, many people say it's natural to stereotype, and psychologists say we still categorize by things like age and race and gender because our brains are wired to do it automatically. Topics covered include: Stereotypes and tolerance -- it possible to overcome racial hatred? The power of stereotypes -- Is there really a "stereotype effect," and if you are aware of it, can you overcome it? The psychology of stereotyping -- If we don't want to stereotype, then why do we do it? The race game -- Are there truly differences between the races that make one race superior in sports? Gay stereotypes -- Is it possible to tell someone's sexual orientation? Are gay people more likely to be in certain professions?<P>This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

There is a kind of pain that is invisible and terrifying -- panic attacks. In their most extreme form, people are so paralyzed with fear that for years they are unable even to leave their own homes. Psychologist David Barlow and Director of the Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders at Boston University says a number of factors, including heredity and stress can make a person vulnerable to panic attacks. But there is a pioneering therapy that, in many cases, could be an alternative to drugs or months, even years of therapy in treating panic attacks with agoraphobia. The idea behind this therapy is to have the patient confront their fear in a controlled setting.

Small helpings, no seconds, a little bit of everything, no snacking and have a good time. I think if you follow that, you're going to be healthy and wealthy and wise... -- Julia Child called herself a cook not a chef. Chefs work in restaurants she would say, with a platoon of people under them. "Cooks are you, me and everybody else who has been slaving away in the kitchen today and everyday." After being exposed to the culinary delights of France relatively late in life, she learned to cook. She spent her 40s learning and writing a cookbook and by the age of 50 she published the first book "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" and she starred in her own television show "The French Chef." The rest, as they say, is history.<P>This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply.

It was a day that no one who lived through it will ever forget. A young and vibrant president shot dead on the streets of a major American city --- the fourth presidential assassination in the country's history. The assassination of President John F. Kennedy was also the first time that U.S. television networks went to 24-hour coverage of a news story. ABC News takes you back to November 22, 1963. Many televisions on the east coast were tuned in to "Father Knows Best" when the first special news bulletin broke in with a report that the President had been shot. Watch as the information that is familiar to us now was reported for the first time - the first eyewitness reports and the first time we learn the shots were fired from the Texas School Book Depository. You also see police display the rifle Lee Harvey Oswald used and the first interview with Abraham Zapruder, the bystander who shot the now famous video of the motorcade and assassination, but whose significance was not fully appreciated at the time.
