Campaign for the Digital Future
n 1999, the Federal Communications Commission issued an order
directing all television stations in the U.S. to convert from analog
to digital transmission by 2003, which was later delayed until 2009.
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.

Wednesday evenings are reserved to satisfy
your curiosity to discover the world around us.
From desert landscapes to the edge of the universe, from ancient monuments to cutting-edge
technology, Vegas PBS brings it all together for

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

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.

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.

Slavery by Another Name
Sunday, February 16 at Noon
A Sundance Film Festival selection for
2012, this documentary explores the littleknown story of the post-Emancipation era
and the labor practices and laws that effectively created a new form of slavery in the
South that persisted well into the 20th century. It examines the concept of “neoslavery,” which sentenced African-Americans to
forced labor for violating an array of laws
that criminalized their everyday behavior.

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. In
January of 1963, Gantt won his lawsuit and
was admitted to Clemson, making him the

he answer is Yes! Many of us avoid estate planning because
we think “I don’t have a million dollar house” or “I don’t
want to pay an attorney” or “It’s too complicated!” But complications arise when you DON’T plan for the future.
If you are a Vegas PBS member, we can help you take steps to plan
for your future so that you can benefit the ones you love, our community or both! The first step you can take is attending one of our upcoming
planned giving seminars. We have six planned for 2014 on various topics related to estate planning. Just watch Channel 10 or check out this

The next step is to contact Diana Morgan, Vegas PBS Major Gifts
Officer, to secure a Will & Trust Guide, which she will mail to your residence. The will kit will take you step by step through the process of
collecting the documents necessary to create a will and or trust. Diana
can be reached at 702.799.1010 x5415, or e-mail at dmorgan@

Finally, when you are ready to put your plan together, you may contact Diana for a referral to an estate planning expert on our Planned
Giving Council who will help you create your plan at a discounted rate.
Our Council members do this to give back to the community and to
encourage as many of our community members as possible to put their
plans in writing.
And that’s it! Not so bad, right? And how great will you feel knowing
that you have taken care of the people and charities most important to
you? It’s the new year and this is the time to make sure that you are
taking care of yourself. Vegas PBS, as always, is here to help.

Great Performances: Sting:
The Last Ship
Rock ‘n’ roll Renaissance man Sting has
embarked on a new venture – a musical
play for which he has written original
music and lyrics. 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.

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.

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.

his compelling four-part political drama is a delicious tale of greed,
corruption and burning ambition in the cynical world of British party
politics. 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.
February 16 at 6 p.m. When charming Chief Whip Francis Urquhart is passed

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

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.

Why do some animals build structures
and others don’t? How do animals decide
where to build? 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.

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. Repeats Sunday, February 16 at

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

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.

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.

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.

Monday, February 3 at 5 p.m.

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.

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.

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.

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

Why just go to an aquarium when your family can actually get in the water with the

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.

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.

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.
