ED: Surface The Complete First Season DVD9

Code : W000148

During a routine submersible dive in the North Pacific Ocean, California oceanographer Laura Daughtery (Lake Bell) is attacked by an unknown life form that appears out of a field of craters on the ocean's floor. Miles Barnett (Carter Jenkins), a North Carolina teen, finds himself face to face with the strange sea creature after falling off his wakeboard during a nighttime outing with his friends. Meanwhile, Richard Connelly (Jay R. Ferguson), a Louisiana man on a fishing trip, loses his brother in a suspicious diving accident when the creature drags him to the depths of the Gulf of Mexico.
All around the world, strange things are occurring in the world's oceans. Stars fall from the sky and into the water; a horrific howl tears apart a South African lighthouse. In South Carolina, an unknown carcass washes up on a public beach, prompting the government to evacuate and cordon off the area, claiming it as a beached whale killed by red tide poisoning.
Meanwhile, Daughtery's research is seized by government officials led by a mysterious Serbian scientist, Dr. Aleksander Cirko (Rade Šerbedžija); after attempting to confront them, she is fired. Curious as to what he's seen, Miles ventures back to the area where he first spotted the creature only to find the water covered in strange pods he classifies as "eggs"; he takes one home and places it in his parents' fish tank. Unable to cope with his brother's disappearance, Connely ventures to South Carolina to see the creature for himself. Connelly meets Daughtery upon arrival after they are both taken into custody due to asking too many questions. When the fish in Miles' tank disappear and the tank breaks, Miles discovers that something has hatched from the egg; he attempts to conceal it but it escapes and causes havoc at his sister's pool party. Daughtery and Connelly sneak onto the beach and bring back a hagfish that had been feeding on the carcass. Each returns to his home, and Daughtery sends the fish's stomach contents to be tested. As they wait for the results, reports of strange creatures beaching themselves around the world begin to surface. These three strangers may have stumbled upon the greatest secret in human history.
The creature that hatched from the "egg" that Miles found appears to be some kind of iguana-like animal. It has the ability to zap objects with a green electrical charge. Miles's friend Phil names the creature Nimrod, "Nim" for short.
Dr. Cirko discovers the origins of the creature, but is murdered before he can tell anyone. His assistant gives his research to Daughtery who has already teamed up with Connelly. 网易探索5月31日报道，据外国媒体报道，最近微软公司推出了一款外形酷似咖啡桌的新型电脑。它是一台平面触摸式电脑，无需鼠标和键盘你就能快速、交互的操作这台电脑。
该计算机所被命名为“Surface” (平面计算机) ，它其实是一个表面安装了30英寸显示器的工作平台。它含有5个摄像装置可以感应靠近屏幕的物体，因此，用户只需触摸其屏幕或在上面拖动手指就可以操作这台电脑。而且你把带有特殊条形码的盘子等餐具放在上面它也都能识别出来，例如你放上一杯饮料，它就能将有关它的产地等信息都在屏幕上显示出来。
与其它绝大多数市场上的触摸屏不同，“Surface”的触摸屏可以同时接受多个触摸信号，也可以多个人同时使用。
这台咖啡桌式计算机的售价大约在一万美元。它还可以帮助顾客挑选手机。比如，当顾客将一部手机放在这个电脑屏幕上时，它很快就能在屏幕上显示出有关该手机的各项信息。用户还可以通过拖动屏幕上的图标来选择通话计划和手机铃声。
