Americans Speak Out About Underwater Housing

More than 15 million homeowners are underwater. Wall
street has chained the American Economy to a crushing
housing debt load.

Underwater homeowners ask President Obama and Governor
Romney to prioritize underwater housing in America.

Curiosity's First Look at Mars

On 5 August NASA successfully landed its rover,
Curiosity, on Mars. Since landing, the rover has
captured some striking images of the red planet. In this
video, NASA scientists John Grotzinger and Joy Crisp
talk about what we've seen so far, and what we might
encounter when Curiosity drives towards Mount Sharp --
where we hope to find signs of water. Published by

The GOP War on Women's Health Is Real

The Republican Party continues to pass harsh laws
restricting access to women's healthcare across the
country, but the mainstream press has stopped paying
attention.

That's why we've produced a short documentary that
cogently explains the state and national efforts by
Republicans--including Mitt Romney--to limit access to
birth control and other basic women's health services.

Featured interviews include Rep. Lois Capps (CA-23), who
as a former nurse has long been a leader on women's
health issues; Stephanie Schriock, president of EMILY's
List; and Dr. Kimberly Shepherd, an OB/GYN who provides
medical authority on issues that never should've been
politicized in the first place. Published by
