n 1999, the Federal Communications Commission issued an orderdirecting all television stations in the U.S. to convert from analogto digital transmission by 2003, which was later delayed until 2009.The cost of acquiring the required new digital production and dis-tribution equipment was estimated to be $9 million per station. To

meet this new mandate, the Southern Nevada Public Television boardlaunched a quiet campaign to raise the funds for digital conversion.

The digital Channel 10 signed on in 2002 – a year ahead of the origi-nal FCC timeline – and Vegas PBS became the first television station inNevada to offer a full-time, full-power high definition program service. Itsoon became clear that our old building on Channel 10 Drive lacked thespace and infrastructure necessary to house the new equipment.Building an addition was cost prohibitive, so the Board launched a pub-lic campaign to seek community funds for a new digital public televisionbuilding. We partnered with the Clark County School District to co-locatetheir online high school with the TV studios.

Through a bidding process, we hired JMA Architectural Studios andMartin Harris Construction to create a nationally unprecedented facilitywith innovations in green building technology and all the survivabilityand security recommendations of federal commissions formed afterHurricane Katrina and 9/11. The ground breaking occurred in 2007, butbefore the ribbon cutting in 2009, the recession forced three donors tocancel more than $2 million in pledges.

Southern Nevada Public Television took a deep breath, re-launchedthe capital campaign, and raised more than $500,000 in each of the lastfour years to retire the unanticipated building debt. Our last payment toretire the debt was made this September. After more a decade of plan-ning 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 andfoundations provided funds for Vegas PBS’ digital equipment and build-ing, and more than 100 people have served the SNPT Board or Councils.This campaign has been a truly remarkable public-private partnershipmade possible by our community’s affection for the trusted, valued andessential services provided by Vegas PBS. As a result, the Vegas PBSEducational Technology Campus has become a national showcase for thetelevision industry, online education and emergency communications.

The campaign’s success provides you with the digital technology andinfrastructure to provide full service PBS programming and high-impactlocal productions that respond to the issues facing our community, andthe joys of living here. Thanks to all who had a part in this remarkableeffort.

One World TradeCenter

Recently judged to be the tallest build-ing in the western hemisphere, the struc-ture is engineered to be the safest,strongest skyscraper ever built. Thisepisode follows the final year of the soon-to-open edifices’ exterior construction, cul-minating with the milestone of reaching1,776 feet. For One World Trade Center’shead of construction Steve Plate – and thescientists, engineers, ironworkers and cur-tain-wall installers – this job is suffused withthe history of the site and a sense of duty torebuild from the ashes of Ground Zero.


Building the FutureTake a tour in and around Leadenhall

Building, a pinnacle of London’s recentavant-garde architecture boom and popu-larly nicknamed “The Cheese Grater” forits tapered shape and steel exoskeleton.The construction of this newest FinancialCentre showpiece forced the team behindLeadenhall to radically rethink everyaspect of the traditional building model: itspieces were constructed off-site, deliveredto the location, and stacked and boltedtogether “like a giant Lego set.”


The Vertical CityWhen complete, China’s Shanghai Tower

will be far more than a skyscraper; it willbe a 120-story vertical City: the country’s

uilding higher and faster thanever before, urban plannersare creating a new generationof skyscrapers that pushes thelimits of engineering, technol-

ogy and design to become greener,stronger and more luxurious than ever.

As well as following the engineeringand construction challenges, this seriesuses state-of-the-art graphics to bring outthe full drama of the build. We will meetthe architects and other charactersinvolved in each colossus. How will thesenew skyscrapers tackle a set of toughquestions? How do you protect a sky-scraper against a terrorist attack? How doyou make a super-tall environmentallyfriendly building? What is involved inbuilding a mega-fast, 600m elevator? Howdo you construct absolute luxury? How doyou clean the windows on the 100th floor?

This four-part series follows the cre-ation of four extraordinary buildings,showcasing how they will revolutionize theway we live, work and protect ourselvesfrom potential threats.

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-cap-

tioned 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 regula-

tions to make the technology required in

all TV receivers. Vegas PBS embraced cap-

tioned media as an extension of our com-

mitment to broadcast closed captioned

programs on Channel 10.

The Vegas PBS Captioned Media

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 education-

al 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 con-

tinues 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 commit-

ment, 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 peo-

ple 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.

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

over for promotion by a new party leader, he hatches a dastardly plot to wreak revenge on each and

every one of his colleagues. February 16 at 7 p.m. Urquhart forges ahead with his plan to bring

down the new Prime Minister. Meanwhile, the party faithful congregate at the Tory conference in

Brighton. February 23 at 5:30 p.m. Urquhart's plans to undermine Collingridge reach their con-

clusion. But Mattie Storin continues to investigate the story, and Urquhart must decide how to stop

her. February 23 at 6:30 p.m. In the run up to the leadership election, Urquhart becomes ever

more ruthless. He must eliminate each one of his rivals, but what can he do about Mattie?

To Play the King, the second part of this trilogy will be scheduled in March.

The Amish:American ExperienceThursday, January 30 at 8 p.m.on Vegas PBS RewindThis intriguing program answers manyquestions Americans have about this insis-tently insular religious community, whoseintense faith and adherence to 300-year-old traditions have by turns captivated andrepelled, inspired and confused for morethan a century. With unprecedentedaccess, built on patience and hard-wontrust, the film is the first to penetratedeeply and explore this attention-aversegroup. In doing so, the program paints anintimate portrait of contemporary Amishfaith and life. It questions why and howthe Amish, a persistently closed and com-munal culture, have thrived within one ofthe most open, individualistic societies onearth; explores how, despite theiringrained submissiveness, the Amish havesuccessfully asserted themselves in resist-ing the encroachments of modern societyand government; and looks at what thefuture holds for a community whose exis-tence is so rooted in the past.

The Dark Charisma of Adolf HitlerThursdays, 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, com-

pelling 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.

POV: American PromiseThursday, February 13 at 9 p.m. on Vegas PBS Jackpot!This film is an intimate and provocative account, recorded over 12 years, of the experiencesof two middle-class African-American boys who entered a very prestigious – and historicallywhite – private school on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. The parents of one of the boys, Joe, aHarvard- and Stanford-trained psychiatrist, and Michèle, a Columbia Law School graduate andfilmmaker, decided to film the boys’ progress starting in 1999. They soon found themselvesstruggling not only with kids’ typical growing pains and the kinds of racial issues one mightexpect, but also with surprising class, gender and generational gaps. This special, whichtraces the boys’ journey from kindergarten through high school graduation, finds the greatestchallenge for the families – and perhaps the country – is to close the black male educationalachievement gap, which has been called “the civil rights crusade of the 21st century.” Winner,U.S. Documentary Special Jury Award, 2013 Sundance Film Festival.

ering 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

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.

FRONTLINE: Secrets of the VaticanTuesday, February 25 at 9 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10

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.
