  THIS WEEK in Northern California [#2330H] May 18, 2012 NEWS PANEL
  * With the state's deficit now soaring beyond projections to $16 billion, Gov. Brown's May budget revision calls for deeper cuts to health and welfare programs and a 5% reduction in pay for state workers, with the threat of more cuts to come if voters do not approve his tax measure in November.
  * Proposition 28 on the June ballot would modify California's strict term limits, enacted in 1990, by reducing time in the state Legislature from 14 years to 12, but allowing the entire time to be served in one house rather than divided between the Assembly and Senate.
  * California's Delta provides drinking water for more than 25 million people and irrigates millions of acres of farmland. But our reliance on the Delta has caused its ecosystem to collapse, harming the fishing industry and putting water supplies at risk. What solutions are being proposed to save it?

  Washington Week [#5147H] The 2012 presidential campaign trail was littered with attacks and counterattacks between President Barack Obama and presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney this week.
  First the Obama campaign launched an aggressive ad challenging Romney's business background and job-creation record when he worked for the private equity firm Bain Capital. At rallies in Ohio, Vice President Joe Biden sharpened the attacks against Romney and all Republicans saying "They're not bad, they just don't get it." Then The New York Times broke the story that a powerful GOP super PAC was planning to spend $ 10M on a strategy to resurrect President Obama's link to his former controversial minister, Rev. Jeremiah Wright. After Romney repudiated the attack strategy, the super PAC apparently scrapped the plan.
  * With recent polls showing Obama and Romney in a dead heat, we'll get analysis on the 2012 presidential race developments from Jeff Zeleny of The New York Times and Karen Tumulty of The Washington Post.
  * Despite record-low approval ratings and the image of being a "do-nothing Congress," lawmakers on Capitol Hill seem headed to replaying last summer's partisan debate over raising the debt ceiling. David Wessel of The Wall Street Journal will examine where there may be room for compromise to avoid the gridlock that brought the government to the brink of default last year.
  * The Justice Department has launched an investigation into J.P. Morgan Chase and the high-risk trading that cost this prominent bank more than $2 billion. John Harwood of CNBC and The New York Times will examine the fallout from the financial fiasco, concerns about the ripple effect on the broader financial system, and the White House calls for tougher enforcement of current Wall Street regulations. duration 26:46   STEREO TVRE
