  Secrets of the Dead [#503Z]
  Voyage of the Courtesans
  In 1789, more than 200 female thieves, prostitutes and con-artists, rounded up from London's most notorious prisons, were shipped off to an Australian penal colony aboard a leaky vessel named the Lady Juliana. Once aboard, the wily women turned their banishment into opportunity, transforming their ship into a rowdy floating brothel. By the time they reached Botany Bay, they were fit, healthy and some were even self-supporting. Instead of a life of servitude, they took control and - along with their offspring - helped guarantee a new world's future. With dramatic reconstructions, powerful imagery and actual ship journals, this program brings to light the true story of the Lady Juliana. Through intensive research and the use of long-hidden historical records, the film also tracks down the women's contemporary descendants and watches as they uncover the surprising truth about their ancestors. Tony-winner Liev Schreiber narrates. duration 56:46   STEREO DVI TVPG

  Washington Week [#4919]
  * As President Barack Obama continues to evaluate options in Afghanistan, there are conflicting positions emerging as to how to the President should proceed. The US Ambassador in Kabul, Karl Eikenberry, is reportedly recommending that the president not send more troops until Afghan President Hamid Karzai agrees to tackle corruption within his government. But the US and NATO commander in Afghanistan, General Stanley McChrystal insists without the deployment of tens of thousands of troops, the mission could end in "failure." So how much cooperation and support can the US expect from Karzai and will President Obama insist that any new plan include an exit strategy? We get some answers from Peter Baker of The New York Times.
  * On Capitol Hill, the celebration following last weekend's passage of a health care reform bill in the House was short-lived. Republicans declared the bill "dead on arrival in the Senate," while some moderate Democrats are deeply concerned about a controversial provision banning coverage of abortions.
