The cost of acquiring the required new digital production and distribution equipment was estimated to be $9 million per station. To meet this new mandate, the Southern Nevada Public Television board launched a quiet campaign to raise the funds for digital conversion. The digital Channel 10 signed on in 2002 – a year ahead of the original FCC timeline – and Vegas PBS became the first television station in Nevada to offer a full-time, full-power high definition program service. It soon became clear that our old building on Channel 10 Drive lacked the space and infrastructure necessary to house the new equipment. Building an addition was cost prohibitive, so the Board launched a public campaign to seek community funds for a new digital public television building. We partnered with the Clark County School District to co-locate their online high school with the TV studios. Through a bidding process, we hired JMA Architectural Studios and Martin Harris Construction to create a nationally unprecedented facility with innovations in green building technology and all the survivability and security recommendations of federal commissions formed after Hurricane Katrina and 9/11. The ground breaking occurred in 2007, but before the ribbon cutting in 2009, the recession forced three donors to cancel more than $2 million in pledges. Southern Nevada Public Television took a deep breath, re-launched the capital campaign, and raised more than $500,000 in each of the last four years to retire the unanticipated building debt. Our last payment to retire the debt was made this September. After more a decade of planning and fundraising, Southern Nevada Public Television secured $38,701,381 in the “Campaign for the Digital Future.” Since 2000, more than 32,000 individuals and 50 corporations and foundations provided funds for Vegas PBS’ digital equipment and building, and more than 100 people have served the SNPT Board or Councils. This campaign has been a truly remarkable public-private partnership made possible by our community’s affection for the trusted, valued and essential services provided by Vegas PBS. As a result, the Vegas PBS Educational Technology Campus has become a national showcase for the television industry, online education and emergency communications. The campaign’s success provides you with the digital technology and infrastructure to provide full service PBS programming and high-impact local productions that respond to the issues facing our community, and the joys of living here. Thanks to all who had a part in this remarkable effort.

From desert landscapes to the edge of the universe, from ancient monuments to cutting-edge technology, Vegas PBS brings it all together for entertainment that enlightens. This month, as part of Exploration Wednesdays, we present a fascinating new series that delves into the towering world of skyscrapers. Artist’s rendering of Shanghai Tower 6 VEGAS PBS S O U RC E B uilding higher and faster than ever before, urban planners are creating a new generation of skyscrapers that pushes the limits of engineering, technology and design to become greener, stronger and more luxurious than ever. As well as following the engineering and construction challenges, this series uses state-of-the-art graphics to bring out the full drama of the build. We will meet the architects and other characters involved in each colossus. How will these new skyscrapers tackle a set of tough questions? How do you protect a skyscraper against a terrorist attack? How do you make a super-tall environmentally friendly building? What is involved in building a mega-fast, 600m elevator? How do you construct absolute luxury? How do you clean the windows on the 100th floor? This four-part series follows the creation of four extraordinary buildings, showcasing how they will revolutionize the way we live, work and protect ourselves from potential threats. February 5 at 10 p.m. One World Trade Center Recently judged to be the tallest building in the western hemisphere, the structure is engineered to be the safest, strongest skyscraper ever built. This episode follows the final year of the soonto-open edifices’ exterior construction, culminating with the milestone of reaching 1,776 feet. For One World Trade Center’s head of construction Steve Plate – and the scientists, engineers, ironworkers and curtain-wall installers – this job is suffused with the history of the site and a sense of duty to rebuild from the ashes of Ground Zero. February 12 at 10 p.m. Building the Future Take a tour in and around Leadenhall Building, a pinnacle of London’s recent avant-garde architecture boom and popularly nicknamed “The Cheese Grater” for its tapered shape and steel exoskeleton. The construction of this newest Financial Centre showpiece forced the team behind Leadenhall to radically rethink every aspect of the traditional building model: its pieces were constructed off-site, delivered to the location, and stacked and bolted together “like a giant Lego set.” February 19 at 10 p.m. The Vertical City tallest and the world’s second-tallest building; a collection of businesses, services and hotels boasting a population equal to the country of Monaco in a community built on a footprint the size of a football field. This episode goes behind Shanghai Tower’s interior wall and exterior skin, a place where residents work, play and relax in a series of eight stacked public parks each more than 120 feet. Built with highly sustainable methods and earning one of China’s best “green ratings,” the structure will dominate the skyline, towering over its neighbors as a testament to the city’s economic success and the ambitions of its wealthy elite. February 26 at 10 p.m. The Billionaire Building Upon completion, One57 in Manhattan will rise more than 1,000 feet and 75 stories, making it the tallest residential tower in the western hemisphere and boasting unprecedented views of Central Park. Follow the teams tasked with creating, building, designing and selling New York’s most luxurious and most expensive residential skyscraper. Condominiums at One57, described as “the most bespoke skyscraper ever built” have state-of-the-art interiors including double-height ceilings, full-floor apartments, bathrooms clad in the finest Italian marble and handmade kitchens from U.K. craftsmen. When complete, China’s Shanghai Tower will be far more than a skyscraper; it will be a 120-story vertical City: the country’s One World Trade Center One57 Leadenhall Building F E B RU A RY 2014 7 School Media By Lee Solonche Vegas PBS Upcoming Events Calendar Vegas PBS and Captioned Media Program Celebrate Tenth Anniversary T en years ago, Vegas PBS, the National Association for the Deaf and Clark County School District announced a historic partnership agreement for the citizens of Nevada. The Vegas PBS Captioned Media Program was launched to provide all Nevadans who are deaf or hard of hearing (or their teachers or care givers) with access to thousands of open-captioned educational media programs. The service was badly needed as Nevada, unlike many other states, had no state school for the deaf or the blind. PBS was the network that invented and first deployed the technology that allows captioning and supported regulations to make the technology required in all TV receivers. Vegas PBS embraced captioned media as an extension of our commitment to broadcast closed captioned programs on Channel 10. The Vegas PBS Captioned Media Specialist Zabdy Rios browses DCMC media library Program has grown and evolved over the past ten years, now also serving blind and visually impaired clients as the Vegas PBS Described and Captioned Media Center (DCMC). The DCMC provides extensive educational media programs, resources, services, braille library, braille printing services, books, interactive games, captioned and descriptive DVDs and learning kits available free of charge to all of Nevada. The DCMC has responded to community requests with recent additions to the collection dealing with such areas as school readiness, anger management, social skills, autism and sign language skills. Materials in Spanish are also being expanded. A visiting area for families, social and storytelling events is also being added, which continues to build excitement for the center. The level of interest in the DCMC from families, local organizations and educators continues to grow, and Vegas PBS maintains our commitment, started a decade ago, to provide equal access to a quality education for all children in Nevada. All of this could not have been done without the support and involvement of many people and organizations. We would like to thank our supporters, including the Ferrtita Foundation, MGM Resorts International Foundation, Las Vegas Rotary Foundation, Clark County School District and Nevada Relay for helping the DCMC enjoy a rich first ten years serving Nevada.

Clemson College was the only school in South Carolina that offered a degree in his chosen field, but was open to only white students. Gantt applied three times, eventually taking the matter to court.

Exploring a range of universal themes, the play dramatizes the impact of the demise of the ship-building industry in Sting’s home town of Wallsend, England, which for so long had dominated and shaped the city’s community life. Having grown up in the shadow of the Swan Hunter Shipyard, Sting was deeply affected by the subject, which inspired him to emerge from a decade-long absence from songwriting to produce more than a dozen new songs for the Broadway-bound show. In an exclusive performance recorded at New York City’s Public Theater, Sting performs an intimate concert of highlights from the show, providing a narrative outline for the musical as well as revealing the autobiographical underpinnings for the songs.

The size of the United States with a population the size of Norfolk. And with extreme temperatures and camel poisoning thrown in, Michael Palin had his work cut out. This in-depth series explores nine exotic countries and their cultures during a trek across the Sahara Desert. Crossing the Sahara is one of the greatest challenges in world travel. Michael encounters the difficulties travelers have faced for centuries, but is guided by the fascinating people he meets along the way. His astonishing journey reveals not only the emptiness of endless sand, but a diverse range of cultures, landscapes and a long history of civilization. 16 VEGAS PBS S O U RC E ‘‘ This in-depth series explores nine exotic countries and their cultures...” February 8 A Line in the Sand To reach the Sahara, Gibraltar is the launching pad, where he crosses the Straits to Tangier in Morocco. It is only after pausing in Fez and Marrakech, and scaling the High Atlas, that Michael enters real desert. This is hard, hot country, controlled by the Polisario Front who have been in confrontation with the Moroccans for more than 25 years. But this inhospitable land is softened by the warmth shown by the Sahawari people, who guide Michael south to the Mauritanian border. Here he climbs aboard the 'longest train in the world,” breaking his journey at Chinguetti. February 15 Destination Timbuktu Leaving the desert behind, Michael briefly savors the delights of cosmopolitan Senegal – jazz clubs, wrestling competitions, dance troupes and the Queen of the Senegalese soaps, Marie-Madeleine. After two days and nights on a train, he arrives at the home of the Dogon people. They have one of the most distinctive and celebrated cultures of West Africa and they nearly kill him with a combination of excessively complex origin myths, an exploding flintlock and boiling hot millet. After securing a passage on a cargo boat with a Norwegian missionary called Kristin, the rest of the journey down the Niger River to Timbuktu seems plain sailing, until the boat runs aground a day from its destination. February 22 Absolute Desert Michael reaches Timbuktu along with a camel train carrying the giant salt blocks that made the city one of the greatest centres of Islamic learning up until the 16th century. He wanders through the rubble that is 21st century Timbuktu to find the Imam who shows him original astronomical textbooks that predate Galileo’s discoveries by 200 years. Michael meets up with a group of Tuareg for the next leg of his journey, a camel train across the Tenere desert to Algeria. He is introduced to the delights and vicissitudes of life on the move in the most desolate landscape on the planet. Walking 12 hours a day, eating the odd sheep and learning the rudiments of Tamashek, the language of the Tuareg, Michael finally gets to grips with the heart and soul of the desert. March 22 Dire Straits Michael arrives at the border of Niger and Algeria, the most desolate crossing, and then turns west along the North Coast past deserted classical sites at Apollonia, Cyrene and Leptis Magna. Crossing into Tunis, Michael takes the Maghreb Express to the dangerous city of Algiers, and then west to Algeria’s second city, Oran. Just along the coast is Ceuta, a Spanish enclave on Morocco's coast, where Michael talks to would-be immigrants before returning to Gibraltar. En route he learns of the terrible fate that has engulfed many Saharan people who attempt the eight-mile crossing. Ride into the Wild West With American Experience Tuesday, February 11 on Vegas PBS Channel 10 and 10.1 Billy the Kid: American Experience 8 p.m. On April 28, 1881, 21-year-old Henry McCarty, alias Billy the Kid, just days from being hanged for murder, outfoxed his jailors and electrified the nation with the latest in a long line of daring escapes. Just a few weeks later, the notorious young outlaw was gunned down by an ambitious sheriff. The Kid was soon mythologized by a neverending stream of dime-store romances and later, big-screen dramas. But Billy the Kid’s real story has been obscured. This program deconstructs the mythology surrounding the infamous desperado. Repeats Sunday, February 16 at 2:30 p.m. Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid: American Experience 9 p.m. Long before Paul Newman and Robert Redford immortalized them on screen, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid captivated Americans from coast to coast. In the Billy the Kid 1890s, their exploits – robbing banks and trains in the West and then seemingly vanishing into thin air – became national news and the basis of rumors and myth. But who were Robert Leroy Parker and Harry Alonzo Longabaugh? How did they come together to form the Wild Bunch gang? And how did they manage to pull off the longest string of successful holdups in history while eluding the Pinkertons, the nation’s most feared detective force? Separating fact from fiction, the film explores the last pair of outlaws to flee on horseback into a setting sun. Repeats Sunday, February 16 at 3:30 p.m. The Fort Worth Five (l to r) Harry Alonzo Longabaugh (The Sundance Kid), William Carver (News Carver), Benjamin Kilpatrick (The Tall Texan), Harvey Logan (Kid Curry), and Robert Leroy Parker (Butch Cassidy).

At its heart is Francis Urquhart, a black-hearted villain with a smiling face, who shares with viewers his estranged humor and innermost thoughts to destroy each of his political rivals. The plot follows his amoral and manipulative scheme to climb the rungs of power to become Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Although Neftlix is airing a remake of this award-winning series, now is your opportunity to enjoy the outstanding original series that started it all.

And we haven’t forgotten our nature lovers! Spend Wednesdays exploring this diverse world with Vegas PBS. February 5 at 8 p.m. Nature: An Original DUCKumentary Ducks fly through the air on short stubby wings – traveling in large, energy-efficient formations over thousands of miles. There are roughly 120 species of them, representing a wide variety of shapes, sizes and behaviors. Some are noisy and gregarious, others shy and elusive. They are familiar animals we think we know. But most of us don’t really know these phenomenal, sophisticated creatures at all. This program follows a wood duck family as a male and female create a bond, migrate together across thousands of miles, nurture and protect a brood of chicks, then come full circle as they head to their wintering grounds. Repeats Sunday, February 9 at 9 a.m. ‘‘ February 5 at 9 p.m. NOVA: Roman Catacomb Mystery Beneath the streets of Rome lies an ancient city of the dead known as the catacombs – a labyrinth of tunnels, hundreds of miles long – a cemetery for the citizens of ancient Rome. In 2002, maintenance workers stumbled through an opening in one of the tunnel walls and discovered a previously unknown complex of six small rooms, each stacked floor to ceiling with skeletons. It was a mass grave, locked away for nearly 2,000 years. Who were these people? Why were so many interred in one place, piled atop each other? And most importantly, what killed them? This forensic investigation opens up new insights into the daily life and health of Roman citizens during the heyday of the mighty Roman Empire. Repeats Sunday, February 9 at 10 a.m. February 5 at 10 p.m. Super Skyscrapers: One World Trade Center Follow the final year of exterior construction on the 1,776-foot skyscraper built on Ground Zero.

Animal homes need to be safe and secure, protected from predators and the weather. An eagle’s nest can weigh up to one ton, a termite mound can stand eight feet tall, and some falcon nest sites have been around for centuries. Going above ground and under, this special investigates just what goes into making a home when you’re wild and cost is not a factor. Repeats Sunday February 16 at 9 a.m. February 12 at 9 p.m. NOVA: Great Cathedral Mystery The dome that crowns Florence’s great cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore – the Duomo – is a masterpiece of Renaissance ingenuity and an enduring source of mystery. Still the largest masonry dome on earth, it is taller than the Statue of Liberty and weighs as much as an average cruise ship. Historians and engineers have long debated how its architect, Filippo Brunelleschi, kept the dome perfectly aligned and symmetrical as the sides rose and converged toward the center. More than four million bricks could collapse at any moment – and we still don’t understand how Brunelleschi prevented it. To test the latest theories, a team of U.S. bricklayers will help build an experimental “mini-Duomo” using period tools and techniques.

How and why did the ancient islanders build and move nearly 900 giant statues, or moai, weighing up to 86 tons? And how did they transform a presumed paradise into a treeless wasteland, bringing ruin upon their island and themselves? Among the radical new theories is that the islanders Honey Badger Stefan Gates holding Tarantula with Tarantula catching children, Poipet, Cambodia used ropes to “walk” the statues upright, like moving a fridge. With the help of an accurate 15-ton replica statue, a team sets out to test this high-risk, seemingly unlikely theory – serving up plenty of action and surprises in this fresh investigation of one of the ancient world’s most intriguing enigmas.

He wants to share the experience of people in Thailand and Cambodia who hunt, eat and sell edible bugs for a living. But nothing quite prepares him for harvesting bugs on a mass scale from stalking grasshoppers at night to catching fiercely biting ants. And it’s not just insects on the menu. Stefan also goes hunting for the hairiest, scariest spider on the planet – the tarantula. As the world faces food shortages, Stefan asks if the solution is for everyone – each of us included – to start eating insects too. and the perseverance of the human spirit: the completion of One World Trade Center. This special examines the new skyscraper rising up 104 stories and 1,776 feet from the site where the Twin Towers once stood. In this update of the Emmy-nominated special Engineering Ground Zero, NOVA goes inside the construction of the tower’s final floors and the installation of its soaring, 800-ton spire and beacon. The film also goes underground to see another engineering marvel taking shape here: the construction of a museum that will house artifacts from 9/11. The greatest test is still to come, though: Will the final product be a fitting site for national remembrance?

ThisWeek’s Picks Nazi Mega Weapons: V2 Rocket I Thursday, January 30 at 10 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 Amish family taking a walk The Amish: American Experience Thursday, January 30 at 8 p.m. on Vegas PBS Rewind This intriguing program answers many questions Americans have about this insistently insular religious community, whose intense faith and adherence to 300-yearold traditions have by turns captivated and repelled, inspired and confused for more than a century. With unprecedented access, built on patience and hard-won trust, the film is the first to penetrate deeply and explore this attention-averse group. In doing so, the program paints an intimate portrait of contemporary Amish faith and life. It questions why and how the Amish, a persistently closed and communal culture, have thrived within one of the most open, individualistic societies on earth; explores how, despite their ingrained submissiveness, the Amish have successfully asserted themselves in resisting the encroachments of modern society and government; and looks at what the future holds for a community whose existence is so rooted in the past. Originally airs on Vegas PBS Channel 10 Tuesday, January 28 at 8 p.m. n a quest for world domination, the Nazis built some of the biggest and deadliest pieces of military hardware and malevolent technology in history. This new six-part series recounts World War II from a unique new perspective, uncovering the engineering secrets of iconic megastructures, telling the stories of the engineers who designed them and revealing how these structures sparked a technological revolution that changed warfare forever. This week’s episode details the first ever long-range rockets, designed and built by the Nazis. This is the story of how scientist Werner von Braun heralded the birth of ballistic missiles and laid the technological foundations for the space race. A scene from V2 Rocket Exploration Wednesday Wednesday, January 29 from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 Stephen Hawking The evening begins at 8 p.m. with Nature: The Funkiest Monkeys. Examine the plight of crested black macaques, feisty monkeys with punk hair and expressive faces. At 9 p.m., NOVA: Ghosts of Murdered Kings hunts for clues to the identity and death circumstances of victims unearthed in Ireland’s bogs. Then at 10 p.m., Hawking tells the intimate and revealing story of Stephen Hawking’s life. Told for the first time in Hawking’s own words and with unique access to his home and public life, this is a personal journey through Hawking’s world. It follows Hawking’s life journey, from boyhood underachiever to PhD genius, and from a healthy cox on the Oxford rowing team to diagnosis of motor neuron disease, given just two years to live – yet surviving several close brushes with death.

ThisWeek’s Picks Wild Caribbean: Hurricane Hell Thursday, February 6 at 8 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 T he Caribbean is the embodiment of paradise: crystal blue waters, magical coral reefs and lush tropical forests. Yet behind its beauty lie many dark and mysterious secrets. This four-part series continues this week, revealing both the magic and the drama of a violent paradise. The Caribbean lies right on the track of the most destructive hurri- canes and storms on the planet. Follow the story of one of the most devastating in recent times and its impact on the plants, animals and people that live there. It’s a story of destruction and renewal; the price of living in the tropics, right at the crossroads where the winds and currents of the North and South Atlantic meet. But the same winds and currents bring some of the Caribbean’s most intriguing visitors; whale sharks, dolphins and sperm whales travel to these shores each year. Wolf Planeta Feroz: Living with Wolves Monday, February 3 at 5 p.m. on Vegas PBS Vme Explore nature and learn about the dazzling variety and complexity of its creatures in this fascinating weekly series. This week’s episode focuses on the world of wolves. A hundred years ago the wolf was common throughout most of Europe. Today, shattered populations remain in only a few countries, in areas where people have accepted sharing their environment with an animal that at times causes havoc and conflict. For more than 30 years, international scientist and film director Erik Zimen has lived with wolves and studied people’s behavior towards them, capturing unique footage on camera of wolves’ behavior across Europe, from Scandinavia, Spain and Germany, to Italy and Romania.

ThisWeek’s Picks The Dark Charisma of Adolf Hitler Thursdays, February 13-27 at 10 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 Adolf Hitler was arguably the most extraordinary leader who has ever lived, but he left behind the greatest legacy of destruction in history. Yet there is a paradox at the heart of the story of Hitler: given his violent and hate-filled character, why did millions support him, ultimately to the destruction of their own country? This three-part series examines Hitler’s relationship with the people he led during the World War II, with the help of testimony from people who were there, compelling archive film and dramatic reconstructions. This week’s program looks at how Adolf Hitler formed a connection with millions of German people, generating a level of charismatic attraction almost without parallel. Dispelling the myth that Hitler somehow hypnotized a nation, this first episode looks at how his alleged ‘charisma’ played a key role in his success as a leader. Adolf Hitler Hasina Haque and James D'Arcy The Making of a Lady Sunday, February 9 at 10 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 Based on the novel by celebrated writer Frances Hodgson Burnett (The Secret Garden), this is the story of the educated but penniless Emily, played by Lydia Wilson. During her duties as a lady’s companion for Lady Maria (Joanna Lumley), she meets her employer’s wealthy widower nephew, Lord James Walderhurst (Linus Roache). Accepting his practical if unromantic marriage proposal, Emily finds solace in the company of Walderhurst’s nephew Alec Osborn (James D’Arcy) and his glamorous wife, Hester (Hasina Haque), after Lord James leaves to rejoin his regiment. Emily, alone with the Osborns, increasingly comes under their control. She begins to fear for her life. POV: American Promise Thursday, February 13 at 9 p.m. on Vegas PBS Jackpot! This film is an intimate and provocative account, recorded over 12 years, of the experiences of two middle-class African-American boys who entered a very prestigious – and historically white – private school on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. The parents of one of the boys, Joe, a Harvard- and Stanford-trained psychiatrist, and Michèle, a Columbia Law School graduate and filmmaker, decided to film the boys’ progress starting in 1999. They soon found themselves struggling not only with kids’ typical growing pains and the kinds of racial issues one might expect, but also with surprising class, gender and generational gaps. This special, which traces the boys’ journey from kindergarten through high school graduation, finds the greatest challenge for the families – and perhaps the country – is to close the black male educational achievement gap, which has been called “the civil rights crusade of the 21st century.” Winner, U.S. Documentary Special Jury Award, 2013 Sundance Film Festival.

ThisWeek’s Picks The Rise and Fall of Penn Station: American Experience Tuesday, February 18 at 9 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 Colleen Kelly and friends Family Travel with Colleen Kelly O ne of the greatest architectural and engineering achievements of its time, New York’s Pennsylvania Station opened to the public in 1910. Designed by renowned architect Charles McKim, the station was a massive civil engineering project, covering nearly eight acres and requiring the construction of 16 miles of underground tunnels. Alexander Cassatt, president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, gambled millions of dollars to link the nation’s biggest railroad to America’s greatest city, but died bringing the station to life. No Tuesdays and Thursdays at 9:30 a.m. beginning February 18 on Vegas PBS Create This brand new travel series breaks new ground as the first ever television show dedicated to traveling with families of all ages. Host and family travel guide Colleen Kelly explores must-see locations and attractions throughout the U.S. and abroad, sharing expert travel tips and insights to create easier family vacations filled with once-in-a-lifetime memories: Why just go to an aquarium when your family can actually get in the water with the whales? How about getting the whole family in the chef's kitchen to make their own pizzas? From big cities Chicago and Los Angeles, to American frontier classics San Antonio and Cheyenne, to family-friendly international destinations Ireland and Montreal, this fun program will show you new ways to enjoy a family vacation. The program repeats the same day at 3:30 p.m. one could imagine that this architectural marvel built for the ages would be torn down a few decades later to make way for Madison Square Garden. Yet its destruction galvanized New York to form the Landmarks Preservation Commission, saving Grand Central Station and countless other historic structures. Life in the Undergrowth Penn Station circa 1950s Thursdays, February 20 and 27 at 8 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 Leopard Slug Invertebrates. For every one of us, there are 200 million of them. In this fascinating series, David Attenborough guides the viewer through a miniature universe teeming with life, never normally seen, yet all around us. New technology reveals surreal vistas and their extraordinary inhabitants up close and personal. Though small, these creatures are as ferocious as any seen before. In this week's first episode, Invasion of the Land, Attenborough tells the story of the land-living invertebrates. He delves into the private life of Europe's dramatic leopard slug, a common garden resident with a truly bizarre end to its marathon mating ritual; watches the courtship ballet of tiny springtails on the underside of a leaf; and in the caves of Venezuela meets the giant bat-eating centipede.

ThisWeek’s Picks FRONTLINE: Secrets of the Vatican Tuesday, February 25 at 9 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 P ope Benedict made history when he announced his resignation, becoming the first pope to step down voluntarily in 600 years. In his wake, he left a bitterly divided Vatican mired in scandals. Is Benedict’s successor, Pope Francis, taming the forces that helped destroy Benedict’s papacy? Is he succeeding in lifting the church out of crisis? Nearly a year in the making, this special two-hour program goes inside the Vatican to unravel the remarkable series of events that led to the resignation that shook the world. Through interviews with those at the very heart of what happened — cardinals, priests, convicted criminals, police, prosecutors and whistle-blowers — the film gives a first-hand account of the final days of Benedict’s papacy and the current battle to set the church on a new path under Francis. Valley and Silverado high schools compete Varsity Quiz Mondays at 7:30 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 Presented over eight weeks, this fastpaced series is an academic quiz show for local high schools featuring the best and brightest students from across the city. The competing high school teams field questions based on their knowledge of subjects such as history, literature, math and science. A partnership between Clark County School District, Vegas PBS and the Kiwanis Club of Las Vegas, the program completed its 44th season in 2013 with approximately 40 high schools participating. Scholarship awards are made to the top four teams and the Harvey N. Dondero All Star Player. This award, which is named after a distinguished CCSD administrator, was instituted 25 years ago to recognize the student who best exemplifies academic achievement, leadership and sportsmanship. Support our young scholars in their pursuit of excellence! The Vatican Crime Stories: Green Friday, February 28 at 7 p.m. on Vegas PBS Worldview Based on the bestselling book by Ferdinand von Schirach, this innovative miniseries consists of unusual cases inspired by actual crimes. The program portrays the crime from the viewpoint of perpetrator, victims and witnesses, and are linked by defense attorney Leonhardt (Josef Bierbichler), who seeks to obtain the most lenient sentence for his client. From numerology to ancient Japanese traditions and a husband terrorized by his wife, the cases take the viewer down untrodden paths. In this week’s episode, the son of an important Brandenburg farmer dabbles with numerological rituals and kills the farmer's sheep in the night. When the young village beauty disappears, he is an immediate suspect. The attorney also tried to find out why the sheep were killed. In German with English subtitles.
