A Career in Caregiving for a Better Life: The Philippines
One in ten Filipinos -- over 10 million people -- work outside their native country. Recently, many people are hoping to work overseas as caregivers. They are graduates from 4-year universities and people changing careers from skilled positions such as computer technicians. Often coming from large families, Filipinos are used to caring for elderly relatives. Their cheerful, dedicated work ethic has made them popular in other countries. Although most have been employed in the West or Middle East, the increase in older populations in nearby Asian countries is driving demand in this region as well. Japan has the world's oldest population, and one school has had a surge in applicants for a course that specializes in caregiving for Japan. Lessons include an intensive Japanese language course. Meet the young caregiver hopefuls who study for their families and for a brighter future.

Devil in Disguise: John Wayne Gacy

From 1972-1978, thirty-three young men were kidnapped, murdered, and buried in a crawl space beneath their killer's house. And no one was the wiser. Not for all those years. Why? He was charming and funny. Had a good, All-American job. Was a community leader. He even volunteered to entertain sick kids... while dressed as a clown. Devil In Disguise: John Wayne Gacy peels back the twisted layers of Gacy's life while weaving in heartrending stories of his victims; exploring the grief, guilt, and trauma of their families and friends; and exposing the systemic failures, missed opportunities, and societal prejudices that fueled his reign of terror.
