    Priscilla's Yoga Stretches [#67] The 130 programs are designed to air daily, Monday through Friday. The 15- minute segments are frequently coupled together to fill a 30- minute time slot at the option of local programmers. The first three shows demonstrate and explain three to four new postures or exercises per show. The last two shows serve as review so the viewer has a chance to make certain they followed and understood correctly. In addition, if the viewer missed a show, the Thursday and Friday review days bring them up-to-date. At the onset, the program is strictly teaching the "building blocks" of yoga exercise. As the series progresses, the work becomes more demanding. However, there is an effort to always have a fair balance of some basically simple postures mixed in so that everyone will have an opportunity to participate. duration 13:47

Cambodia boasts some of the world's best grilled corn (basted with coconut milk), while Malaysia gives us a unique way for preparing swordfish: slathered with lemongrass paste, then wrapped and grilled in banana leaves-a popular Asian technique that not only keeps the fish moist, but that keeps it from sticking to the grill grate.

    Washington Week [#5150H] * Republicans scored a significant victory in Wisconsin this week when voters decided to keep first-term Governor Scott Walker in office. Walker won 53% of the vote in an election engineered by opponents of his cost-cutting budget strategy that included limiting union rights for most public workers. Outside donations flooded into the state for both sides but the majority of the money came from conservatives who supported Walker.
    * But there was some positive news for Democrats. Exit polls found 51% of Wisconsin voters say they will support President Barack Obama in November, while 44% said they will support Romney. Can Romney capitalize on Walker's win in a state that has backed the Democrats in every presidential election since 1988? We'll get answers and analysis from John Dickerson of Slate Magazine and CBS News and Jeanne Cummings of Bloomberg News.
    * A CIA drone strike has killed Al Qaeda's second in command in Pakistan. The death of Abu Yahya al-Libi and another senior Al Qaeda leader is being described as a victory for the US and the most significant setback for the terrorist network since the death of Osama bin Laden more than one year ago. The New York Times' David Sanger, author of "Confront and Conceal: Obama's Secret Wars and Surprising Use of American Power" will report on President Obama's vastly-accelerated use of drone strikes against terror suspects in Pakistan and Yemen.

    Anyone and Everyone This documentary tells the stories of families from Utah to North Carolina and Wyoming to New York, all connected by a common thread - a gay child. By first-time filmmaker Susan Polis Schutz (also the parent of a gay son), it depicts families representing a wide range of religions, nationalities and political leanings. During the film, parents of homosexual teens and young adults eloquently recall their initial reactions to their child's coming-out and their sometimes difficult journeys to acceptance. Some showed unconditional support; others struggled with their child's sexual orientation, either fearing alienation from their extended family, their church or community or failing to understand the universal nature of homosexuality. duration 56:46   STEREO TVPG
