The Death and Life of Asheboro - Most of the thousands of jobs lost through outsourcing and the recession in this North Carolina factory town may not come back, but some entrepreneurs are turning things around despite the still-stalled economy.
Stealing History - Some of America's precious treasures, items like signed presidential papers and the Wright Brothers patent, have gone missing. One reason authorities began to take notice: a conman who stole thousands of them over several years.
The Face of the Franchise - One of the most exciting things about the lowly Jacksonville Jaguars may be their owner, Shahid Khan.

On GPS Sunday: Is U.S. economy set for robust revival? And should we be fracking?
Fareed offers his take on the U.S. economy and why it looks poised for a robust revival.
The International Monetary Fund's latest World Economic Outlook makes for gloomy reading. Growth projections have been revised downward almost everywhere, especially in Europe and the big emerging markets like China, he notes. And yet, when looking out over the next four years and incidentally the next presidential term the IMF projects that the United States will be the strongest of the world's rich economies.
Then, a GPS panel on the fiscal road ahead for America includes columnist Joe Klein, economist Ken Rogoff and commentators Amity Shlaes and Chrystia Freeland.
Next, GPS looks at Mali, which got more references at the last presidential debate than Europe, India and Mexico combined well explain why this African nation was so important.
GPS will also hear from two British academics who explore money and happiness. And finally, to frack or not to frack a debate on the pros and cons of this method of extracting natural gas.
