...Eventually Yorkin's engineering background landed him a job as a cameraman at NBC. Zealously he sent executives a steady stream of critiques on the programs he transmitted. They were never answered. He moved up anyway first to stage manager and then to the control booth, where producers and directors sit. There Lear spotted him and prevailed upon Martin and Lewis to make him their director...
...Camps 1, 2 and 3, getting used to the altitude and socking away enough equipment--especially oxygen canisters--to make a summit push. They had tried for the summit once but had turned back because of weather. At 29,000 ft., the Everest peak is in the jet stream, which means that winds can exceed 100 m.p.h. and that what looks from sea level like a cottony wisp of cloud is actually a killer storm at the summit. Bad weather played a fatal role in the 1996 climbing season documented in Into Thin...

...busy industry gears up to test the weak points all along the border's 1,952 miles. In Tijuana smugglers cram three people into a car trunk and a fourth behind a dashboard, then drive through the customs checkpoint, hoping nobody suspects anything. In Calexico aliens float down a stream choked with toxic chemicals and sewage, betting the border patrol won't jump in to pull them out. In nearby Nogales smugglers tunnel 6 ft. under the border and funnel people through...
