Snails and Their Habitats
Biodiversity and Survival Strategies
They are slow, really slow … they are soft, they are slimy …and greedy.
Most of us look at them with disgust. But snails and their relatives are fascinating, useful animals and true survivors.
Snails and slugs live on land, in freshwater and in the sea. They have been crawling across our planet for more than 500 million years.
The number of species is a matter of estimation. Biologists assume there are up to 100,000. In Germany, their number is limited with about 180 species. Nevertheless, surprisingly little is known about the mode of life of terrestrial snails although some species are very conspicuous.

Blogging
The weblog or blog, for short, as a medium is not much older than this century. Blogs came into being in the World Wide Web as ’messages from below’, as web pages from web creators who wanted to share their view of the world with the world. They are short notes, long texts, pictures, videos, which are posted loosely and at random intervals to the world for an undefined public.
Product Piracy
Counterfeiting takes place in almost all economic sectors – textiles, watches, car parts, machine parts, tools, accessories, software and medicines. Some counterfeits are easy to recognise, others are so well-executed that even experts have difficulty distinguishing between original and imitation. This DVD covers the development of a product from idea to manufacture. Once a product has become a trademark, product pirates appear on the scene.
