Spotlight Follow the human body on three incredible journeys in this pioneering science series on WTIU Passport. Amazing graphics and captivating stories help showcase the internal mechanics of the human body and its finely tuned systems that both fascinate and perplex scientists.
The Amazing Human Body
The first episode focuses on growth. It begins with the start of life – a single cell – and follows the body as it develops into more than 37 trillion cells that fight to live a long, healthy life. Next, the series explores the incredible survival instincts of
the body and the miracles it goes through each day to stay alive. In the final episode, scientists explore how experiences have an effect on the brain and how it can store and process billions of pieces of information every second. Already using Passport? Sign in at pbs.org/passport/videos to watch The Amazing Human Body. Want to know more? Passport is available to all WTIU donors who make a yearly contribution of at least $60 or an ongoing monthly contribution of $5 or more. Call 1-800-987-9848 for more information. wtiu.org / 3
This Month’s Highlights Sacred Monday, December 10 at 10pm At a time when religious hatreds dominate the world’s headlines, this film, sweeping in global reach and yet intensely intimate, explores faith as primary human experience: how it is used to navigate the milestones and crises of private life. Sacred was shot by 40 filmmaking teams around the world, and directed by Academy Award winner and four-time nominee Thomas Lennon.
Letters from Baghdad Tuesday, December 11 at 9pm
Letters from Baghdad is the story of a true original—Gertrude Bell—sometimes called the “female Lawrence of Arabia.” Voiced and executive produced by Academy award winning actor Tilda Swinton, the documentary tells the dramatic story of this British spy, explorer and political powerhouse. Bell traveled widely in Arabia before being recruited by British military intelligence to help draw the borders of Iraq after WWI.

WTIU Kids 24-7 channel! Available over-the-air for free on Channel 30.5 wtiu.org/kids wtiu.org/kids Don’t Forget the Indiana College Tax Credit for 2018 Giving Now that the tax laws have changed, taking advantage of annual charitable contributions is more difficult. Most of us won’t have given enough to qualify for a deduction on our 2018 federal taxes. If that describes your situation, you should know about the Indiana College Tax Credit. Indiana University is a state college/university and WTIU is licensed to Indiana University. Therefore your contributions to WTIU qualify under this program. It’s better than a deduction—it’s a credit that reduces the tax you owe. If, for example, you were to make a $400 gift to WTIU, you could claim a $200 tax credit on your Indiana state taxes (if you file jointly), and up to $100 in credit on a $200 gift if you file singly. The tax credit comes right off the top of what you owe in state taxes. Take advantage of this tax benefit by filling out Form CC-40 (downloadable from www.IN.gov/dor) and include it with your tax return filing. It’s money back in your pocket! Follow these four easy steps: Step 1: Send in a gift to WTIU. Make your check out to Indiana University Foundation/WTIU. Step 2: Feel good for supporting public television! Step 3: File the CC-40 form. Step 4: Feel even better when the state of Indiana reduces your taxes! Why does the state do it? Because strong annual support from donors like you is vital to WTIU—and our universities and colleges are vital to the state . . . but you already know that! To discuss ways of making a tax-advantaged gift to WTIU, call (812) 855-2935 or go online to www.wtiu.org/support.

Call the Midwife Holiday Special
Holiday Specials
Tuesday, December 25 at 9pm Miriam Margoyles stars as Sister Mildred, who arrives unexpectedly at Nonnatus House, her hands full with four Chinese orphans. Having fled China, the child refugees were found abandoned in Hong Kong and are being adopted in the U.K. as part of the World Refugee Project. With Christmas preparations in full flow and the midwives busy caring for the expectant mothers of Poplar, these unexpected visitors cause joy and chaos in equal measure. Also on this Christmas special, Trixie returns to Poplar in time to cover for the Sisters as they leave for the Mother House. The Order’s Mother Superior has taken ill, and a new spiritual leader needs to be elected. It soon becomes clear, much to Sister Julienne’s horror, that she is the favored candidate.
