Performances Renee Fleming & Dmitri Hvorostovsky: A Musical Odyssey in St.
Petersburg American soprano Renee Fleming travels to Russia for a special visit to St.
Petersburg with her friend and frequent co-star, Russian baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky.
There in the "Venice of the North," they explore and perform in some of the most
spectacular locations of a city that was born in the remarkable mind and imagination of
the young Czar Peter the Great (a city that he named not for himself, but for Saint
Peter). St. Petersburg is a city of palaces, and Fleming and Hvorostovsky take in three of
the most memorable, all of them on the water. First is the Winter Palace, also known as
the Hermitage, built with one entire facade facing the Neva River. Next on the tour is the
Yusupov Palace (the scene of Rasputin's murder); and lastly, the Peterhof with its
fantastic fountains on the Gulf of Finland. In each location, they sing arias and duets by
Verdi and Tchaikovsky, as well as the Russian songs of Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff.

custom casings and paneling. The house's existing plaster ceiling medallions were beyond
repair, so Norm brings back preservation plasterer Rory Brennan to replicate them on site.
Fortunately, the originals were nearly identical to the medallions from the Charlestown
project years ago, so Rory mixes up some plaster and pours a new medallion from the
Charlestown mold. Afterward, they install a completed casting in the front parlor. At the
end of the day, the fence is nearly complete and the sod is finished, thanks to our group

closest finish and also the largest margin of victory in NASCAR history. These are just a
few of the historic events that have taken place at the Darlington Raceway in its 60 year
history. It has become a pillar of the NASCAR circuit, and has been compared to such other

Drakensberg: Barrier of Spears The Drakensberg Mountains are Southern Africa's Alps,

incredibly hostile environment for the surprising number of creatures that manage to live
there. Each spring, drenching rains destroy the grasslands at the base of the mountains,
and those who would survive must climb straight up sheer cliffs of volcanic rock, through
gauntlets of storms and snow, to reach the carpets of grass on the plateau. The baboons
that make this astonishing annual journey may have the advantage of agility, but eland,
the world's largest antelope, have long, spindly legs and heavy bodies, which make the
climb all but unbelievable. All have babies at their sides while vultures circle overhead.

Drakensberg: Barrier of Spears The Drakensberg Mountains are Southern Africa's Alps,
rising more than 11,000 feet into the sky. But beneath their shimmering beauty lies an
incredibly hostile environment for the surprising number of creatures that manage to live
there. Each spring, drenching rains destroy the grasslands at the base of the mountains,
and those who would survive must climb straight up sheer cliffs of volcanic rock, through
gauntlets of storms and snow, to reach the carpets of grass on the plateau. The baboons
that make this astonishing annual journey may have the advantage of agility, but eland,
the world's largest antelope, have long, spindly legs and heavy bodies, which make the
climb all but unbelievable. All have babies at their sides while vultures circle overhead.

Roadshow Jackpot! It's every collector's dream: turning a modest outlay into a
staggeringly high return on investment. ANTIQUES ROADSHOW "Jackpot" rolls the
dice on those heady moments when luck smiles on flea market mavens and yard sale savants.
This special recalls such spectacular windfalls as a landscape painting acquired for $1.50
at a Salvation Army "half price" sale and valued at $10,000 to $15,000; an art
pottery vase, grabbed at a garage sale for less than five dollars and estimated to be
worth $13,000 to $17,000; a 19th-century album of watercolor paintings, scooped up at a
yard sale for a quarter, with an estimated value of $20,000 to $30,000; and a 1951
Minneapolis Millers baseball uniform worn by Willie Mays, scored at a sports collectibles
show for $50 and valued at $60,000 to $80,000. (cc)

Becoming Human: Birth of Humanity NOVA presents a definitive three-part special that
investigates explosive new discoveries that are transforming the picture of how we became
human. The first program explores fresh clues about our earliest ancestors in Africa,
including the stunningly complete fossil nicknamed "Lucy's Child." These
three-million-year-old bones from Ethiopia reveal humanity's oldest and most telltale
trait, upright walking, rather than a big brain. The second program tackles the mysteries
of how our ancestors managed to survive in a savannah teeming with vicious predators, and
when and why they first left the African cradle to colonize every corner of the earth. In
the final program, NOVA probes a wave of dramatic new evidence, based partly on
cutting-edge DNA analysis, that reveals new insights into how we became the creative and
"behaviorally modern" humans of today, and what really happened to the enigmatic
Neanderthals who faded into extinction. Shot "in the trenches" as discoveries
were unearthed throughout Africa and Europe, each hour of "Becoming Human"
unfolds with a forensic investigation into the life and death of a specific hominid
ancestor. Dry bones spring back to vivid life with stunning animation, the product of a
unique NOVA collaboration between top anthropologists and a talented team of movie
animators. (cc)

Full Circle As the Nimitz makes its final transit from Hawaii to California, the
sailors and Marines on board prepare to return to their homes and families. For those
still on board, the "Tiger Cruise" provides a buffer, but there's no such
transition for those who fly home early from Hawaii. As the Nimitz returns to her home
port of San Diego, sailors and Marines reflect on the deployment and take stock of what
they've achieved. Was the mission accomplished? There are tearful, joyful reunions at the
pier. (cc)
10:00 Independent
Lens Power Paths This program follows the efforts of American Indian tribes as
they explore ways to bring renewable energy projects into their communities. From the
Sioux tribes of Great Plains in the Midwest to the Navajo and Hopi of the Southwest,
tribes are fighting to protect their land, air and water from the harmful impacts of
mining and burning coal on their lands. This program documents how young Native leaders
formed the Just Transition Coalition and succeeded in a legal battle to close a large
dirty coal plant not far from Las Vegas, which sends electricity to California.
"Power Paths" follows their efforts to bring training and new jobs in renewable
energy, installing solar energy and large wind turbines on their lands. Now for the first
time in 60 years, Native Americans may receive some economic justice for the harm caused
to their natural resources. (cc)

9:00 Earth Days:
American Experience It is now all the rage in the Age of Al Gore and Barack Obama, but
can you remember when everyone in America was not "Going Green?" "Earth
Days" looks back to the dawn and development of the modern environmental movement --
from its post-war rumblings in the 1950s and the 1962 publication of Rachel Carson's
incendiary bestseller Silent Spring, to the first wildly successful 1970 Earth Day
celebration and the subsequent firestorm of political action. The stories of the era's
pioneers -- among them former Secretary of the Interior Stewart Udall;
biologist/Population Bomb author Paul Ehrlich; Whole Earth Catalog founder Stewart Brand;
Apollo Nine astronaut Rusty Schweickart; and renewable energy pioneer Hunter Lovins -- are
illustrated with an incredible array of footage from candy-colored Eisenhower-era tableau
to classic tear-jerking 1970s anti-litterbug PSAs. Directed by acclaimed documentarian
Robert Stone (Oswald's Ghost, Guerrilla: The Taking of Patty Hearst) this AMERICAN
EXPERIENCE film is both a meditation on man's complex relationship with nature and a
history of the revolutionary achievements -- and missed opportunities -- of groundbreaking
eco-activism. (cc)

3:00 Tackling
Diabetes with Dr. Neal Barnard Leading clinical researcher, adjunct associate
professor of medicine, author, and health advocate, Neal Barnard, MD shares his
scientifically proven system to taking control of diabetes through nutrition, without
drugs in Tackling Diabetes with Dr. Neil Barnard. The 3-segment, 60-minute program is
targeted at diabetics and those at risk of becoming diabetic based on genes and current
lifestyle habits. Dr. Barnard's new approach addresses diabetes, but it also helps with
other ailments including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease and weight.
In the program, Dr. Barnard explains the different types of diabetes and how each can be
triggered by genetics, weight, poor diet and lack of physical activity or pregnancy. Dr.
Barnard reveals in-depth scientific studies from leading national organizations, unveiling
results that not only diminish diabetes, but increase energy and weight loss. Dr. Barnard
explains the research and offers simple, step-by-step guidelines to apply the research
into one's lifestyle. Not all bodies are wired the same. Many are predisposed to diabetes
through genetics. However, the same simple guidelines can be used to protect the body from
head to toe including the heart, eyes and bones. Through a series of studies, Dr. Barnard
discovered that it is possible to repair insulin function and reverse Type 2 diabetes
through nutrition. By following Dr. Barnard's life-changing approach, viewers will be able
to control blood sugar three times more effectively than with the standard dietary regimen
for people with diabetes. Dr. Barnard's program is a three-rule system to taking control
of diabetes including a vegan diet, low in fat and low glycemic index. A vegan diet means
avoiding all animal products and, instead, eating regular meals in the four food groups --
vegetables, fruits, whole grains and legumes. In Takling Control of Diabetes, Dr. Barnard
presents the effects from fat, fiber and calories. Did you know adding 14 grams of fiber
to your diet can cut your daily calorie intake by 10%? Or that 9 calories equate to one
fat gram?; And that the percentage of fat in beef versus chicken only differs by 6%? In
the special, Dr. Barnard teaches basic dietary guidelines to identifying fiber-rich foods,
foods low in fat and low glycemic index foods, with no limits or calorie counting. Dr.
Neal Barnard is the author of numerous scientific and medical publications and more than
15 books. He is frequently called on by news programs and international medical
associations to speak on nutrition, research issues and areas in modern medicine. Dr.
Barnard received his M.D. degree at the George Washington University School of Medicine in
Washington, D.C. and is an Adjunct Associate Professor of Medicine at the George
Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences, a Life Member of the
American Medical Association, and a member of the American Diabetes Association. In 1985,
Dr. Barnard founded the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM), a nationwide
group of physicians and lay supporters promoting preventive medicine and addressing
controversies in modern medicine. (cc)

Milestones and Memories More than 40 stars from The Lawrence Welk Show sing, dance and

2000 at the Champagne Theater in Branson, Missouri. Through the performance of more than
30 beloved songs, The Welk Musical Family recollects their career highlights and special
moments together. For the huge crowd of fans who flocked from every state in the country
to experience this concert, the stars become both guides and fellow travelers down a
musical memory lane. Some of those magic moments include a rollicking piano duet by Jo Ann
Castle and Big Tiny Little, the still-sweet harmony of the Lennon Sisters and the
accordion virtuosity of Myron Floren. The 20-piece Lawrence Welk Orchestra, playing many
of Welk's original arrangements, not only flawlessly support the stars, but also take a
moment to shine on their own during a special tribute to Dixieland music, Welk's favorite
American musical idiom. The magic culminates in the final act when all of the Welk stars
take the stage to show their love of music and of one another in a special 25-song medley
that includes " Together Wherever We Go", "Will the Circle Be
Unbroken", "America the Beautiful" and then builds to the dramatic and
beautiful all-cast rendition of "In the Sweet By and By." If Welk is in your
regular schedule, this tribute to his music and reunion of the people who perform and love
it will certainly appeal to your loyal Welk audience. Even if you don't broadcast
The Lawrence Welk Show on a weekly basis, this beautifully-performed and produced concert
has the potential to appeal to the older demo typically in your audience. (cc)

2:00 New Science of
Learning: Brain Fitness for Kids For many years, the conventional wisdom in science
and education had been that the majority of the brain's functioning was established during
the "critical period" of the first few years of life. It was thought that after
these first years that the brain was hardwired by the child's neurological history,
genetics and life experiences. Following this way of thinking, a teacher worked within
'limits' rather than exploring the possibilities of a child's ability to learn. Following
this theory meant that by the age of 5 years old, some children seemed destined for
success and others were marked for a life of poor to moderate performance. This thinking
has doomed generations of children to a limited learning experience and an often deflated
sense of self worth. Over the last decade, a series of neuroscience breakthroughs and
educational research findings have led to a new understanding of the learning capabilities
of the brain. A growing body of "educational neuroscience" has shown that under
the right conditions, the "plastic" brain of a child is continuously improvable
in very fundamental respects. The general neurological skills and abilities of a
child---of their brain---that are required for success in school (how fast they learn; how
well they read; how reliably they respond with the right answer; how effectively they
address a complex problem) can be very substantially improved in most cases, at any age.
We have traditionally focused on improving the education of children by applying
strategies that load their brains with more and more content or "what they should
know". But with The New Science of Learning we understand that we can improve the
brain that the child brings to any learning situation. Using these new approaches, the
performance abilities of "normal" or even "high-achieving" children
can be rapidly improved. Perhaps most importantly, many "under -achieving",
children otherwise destined for failure can be empowered to succeed. That includes
children with moderate or even severe impairments in language, reading, attention, or in
other abilities that will limit their achievements in childhood and in life. The
foundation of all learning lies in language, not only the ability to speak but to
understand what is being said and to process that information in a rapid and accurate way.
This processing ability is what underlies all learning and what can be most impacted using
neuroplasticity. We can increase the speed and accuracy of processing by focusing on four
key cognitive skill sets:Memory - The ability to store information and ideas. Memory isn't
just about dates and facts, it is essential for word recognition, comprehension of complex
sentences, and remembering instructions.Attention - The ability to focus on information
and tasks and of equal importance is the ability to ignore distractions. Processing Rate -
The rate at which a child is able to accurately perceive and manipulate information. In
the context of reading, processing rate refers to the rate at which a student can
distinguish speech sounds and identify letter and word forms to create meaning.Sequencing
- Placing the detail of information in its accustomed order, (for example, days of the
week, the alphabet, etc). In the context of reading, sequencing is the ability to
determine the order of letters within words or words within sentences. Throughout the
program we hear from experts and scientists working on the cutting edge of neuroplasticity
research and we also witness how their work intersects with the lives of real children.
From Dr. April Benasich's research on the brain waves of babies that may help predict
learning disabilities, to the true and moving story of Willie Brown. Willie and his mother
Belinda tell the story of Willie's struggles through the educational system and his
ultimate triumph, learning to read at the age of 17. This revolution in educational
neuroscience points to a second, powerful, more fundamental strategy: By appropriate brain
plasticity-based training, we can substantially improve and greatly elaborate the ability
of a brain to take in ANY content. By building a better brain, students are empowered to
get much more out of all learning and school. Applying this science gives us a new model
of learning, one that results in engaged learning no matter what the topic, by empowered
and confident students. (cc)
