In the churchyard of a cathedral in London, a sword appears imbedded in a stone. It is inscribed with a prophecy. Although many try, no one can budge the sword from the stone. Deep in the dark woods, Merlin the Magician begins to teach 11-year-old Arthur, who lives in the castle of Sir Ector where he's an apprentice squire to Sir Kay. Arthur learns the basic truths of life, but he also runs into the evil Madam Mim, who tries to destroy him. A great tournament is held in London to pick a new king. Arthur, attending as Kay's squire, forgets Kay's sword, and runs back to the inn to get it, but the inn is locked. Arthur, seeing the sword in the stone, innocently, and easily, pulls it out. When the knights marvel at the wondrous sword and question where he got it, Arthur has to prove himself all over again by pulling the sword from the stone.Canadian Home Video Rating: G.DVD, region 1, full screen (1.33:1) presentation; Dolby Digital 5.1 surround.

Life in three dimensions : how curiosity, exploration, and experience make a fuller, better life / by Oishi, Shigehiro,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."From one of our foremost psychologists, a trailblazing new book turns the idea of a good life on its head and urges us to embrace the transformative power of variety and experience. For many people, a good life is a stable life, a comfortable life that follows a well-trodden path. This is the case for Shigehiro Oishi's father, who has lived in a small mountain town in Japan for his entire life, putting his family's needs above his own, like his father and grandfather before him. But is a happy life, or even a meaningful life, also a good life? In Life in Three Dimensions, Shige Oishi enters into a debate that has animated psychology since 1984, when Ed Diener (Oishi's mentor) published a paper that launched happiness studies. A rival followed in 1989 with a model of a good life that focused on purpose and meaning instead. In recent years, Shige Oishi's award-winning work has proposed a third dimension to a good life: psychological richness, a new concept that prioritizes curiosity, exploration, and a variety of experiences that help us grow as people. Life in Three Dimensions explores the shortcomings of happiness and meaning as guides to a good life, pointing to complacency and regret as a "happiness trap" and narrowness and misplaced loyalty as the downside of a life of meaning. Psychological richness, Oishi proposes, balances the other two, offering insight and growth spurred by new experiences and changes in perspective. Psychological richness, Oishi writes, can come in the form of anything from a spur-of-the-moment lunch date to travel, immersion in the arts, a move, new relationships, and more dramatic life changes. Drawing on studies and examples from life and literature, Oishi shows how anyone can use the three core dimensions -- happiness, meaning, and psychological richness -- to build a fuller, more satisfying life"--
