  Washington Week [#5202H] Taxes, jobs and health care were the main themes for both President Obama and Mitt Romney this week as both men targeted the middle class during campaign stops in the battleground states of Iowa, Colorado and Virginia.
  * President Obama re-ignited the tax policy debate when he revived calls for lawmakers to extend Bush-era tax cuts only to families making less than $250,000 a year. Republicans want all tax cuts to be extended and say the president's efforts to portray himself as the champion of the middle class is nothing more than "class warfare." The Obama campaign pushed back with a new ad campaign accusing Republican challenger Mitt Romney of being out of touch with the middle class and claiming his tax proposals would overwhelmingly benefit the wealthy.
  * During campaign stops in Colorado, Mitt Romney told voters that the president's plan to extend tax cuts for all but the rich would harm job creators and said the president was the "outsourcer in chief" Later in the week, the former Massachusetts governor addressed the NAACP convention. But the predominantly Democratic-leaning crowd booed the GOP contender when he declared that he would repeal "Obamacare" if elected.
  * As both candidates tried to rally support and distinguish themselves from their contender, House Republicans voted to repeal President Barack Obama's signature health care reform law despite the fact that the measure will almost certainly die in the Democrat-controlled Senate. And the Obama campaign once again raised questions about Romney's tenure at Bain Capital where he spent the majority of his career and made his fortune.
  Joining Gwen Ifill around the table with a discussion on the 2012 race for the White House are Michael Duffy of Time Magazine, Lori Montgomery of The Washington Post, Alexis Simendinger of RealClearPolitics, and Sam Youngman of Reuters. duration 26:46   STEREO TVRE

  Nature [#2306H] Life In Death Valley It is a visual wonderland, where imposing mountains rise almost two vertical miles above sprawling salt flats, and canyons are painted in strokes of blue, pink, violet and green from sunrise to sunset. This is Death Valley - one of the most inhospitable places on the planet. Nowhere else is a landscape so exquisite yet brutal, stunning yet harsh. Here, temperatures spike into the 130s, the earth cracks like broken clay and when the hot wind blows, all anyone can taste is dust and salt. Ironically, it is water that has shaped this super-arid home of true survivors. duration 55:41   SRND51 TVG

  ImageMakers [#901H] Lost and Found THE LOST THING - Australia
  A boy discovers a bizarre looking creature while out collecting bottle caps one day at the beach. Realizing it is lost, he tries to find out where it belongs, but everyone else is too busy or wrapped up in their own life to care. The boy decides it is up to him to find its home.

  Gaslight - [#1035] (1944) Ingrid Bergman stars as Paula Alquist, a shy heiress who, in her youth, found the body of her famous Aunt Alice, an entertainer murdered in their home. At the time of the tragedy, Paula is sent away to boarding school, and returns to London ten years later with her new husband Gregory Anton (Charles Boyer), whom she married after a whirlwind romance. Shortly after moving back into her childhood home, however, she begins to lose her grip on reality, and becomes convinced her husband is trying to drive her insane. Joseph Cotton stars as Brian Cameron, a fan of Paula's aunt, now a Scotland Yard detective, who takes a special interest in Paula. Directed by George Cukor (not Alfred Hitchcock as some assume), Bergman won both a Golden Globe and an Oscar for her performance. This film also marks the memorable film debut of Angela Lansbury as Nancy Oliver, a maid unwittingly drawn into Anton's plans. The film also took an Oscar for Best Art Direction, along with 5 other nominations, including Best Actor for Boyer and Supporting Actress for Lansbury. duration 1:53:48   STEREO TVPG
