Death Valley, the Great Salt Lake, volcanoes, silver mines, ghost towns, and nuclear test ranges are all part of the strange land called the Great Basin which lies between the Rocky Mountains and the spectacular Sierra Nevada in California.

Janet Vaughan interviewed by Polly Toynbee
Janet Vaughan has led a very full life. In her early work as a doctor in the 1920s she helped establish the cure for anaemia, a common blood disease which used to prove fatal.
Just before the Second World War she helped set up Britain's first National Blood Transfusion Service, and she treated the victims of the blitz. When the war ended Janet Vaughan went to
Belsen, and saw the horrors of the concentration camp. After the war she became Britain's expert on the effects of radiation on humans, with her work on strontium and plutonium.
As Principal of Somerville, the women's college in Oxford, Janet Vaughan was instrumental in raising the number of women and getting the women's college the same status as those of the men in Oxford.
An eminent scientist and a brilliant academic, Dame Janet Vaughan is also a witty talker.

A Forty Minutes documentary
The wealthy Hendon housewife who has to lose weight so that she can have her eyes lifted; an ex-WRAF officer in a last-ditch bid to shed six pounds so that she can squeeze into her wedding dress; a professional gambler, too heavy for the scales-these are three of the inmates of Henlow Grange with everything to lose and nothing to gain. After a week of hot wax baths, the high-pressure hydro, and the infamous G5 (known in the trade as the 'Black and Decker')-the trio can assess whether the creation of a new slim svelte self was worth all that had to be endured.
