:05:37. > :05:40.house Republicans? A huge reversal. A huge breakthrough for the
:05:41. > :05:44.dysfunction that has held this capital hostage for nearly three
:05:45. > :05:48.years. We have seen the government shutdown. The government being
:05:49. > :05:54.pushed to the brink of default. This one vote tonight ended all of that.
:05:55. > :06:00.28 Republicans joining the Democrats to announce enough of this
:06:01. > :06:02.infighting for now. Time for to end. One Republican lawmaker told me, our
:06:03. > :06:08.stomach is not your here for brinksmanship. The Tea Party had a
:06:09. > :06:15.stomach for brinksmanship, can they do anything about it? They said they
:06:16. > :06:20.are so upset Speaker Bain. They are calling for his ousting. He is told
:06:21. > :06:24.Republicans and me, Republicans need to pick smart battles. They know
:06:25. > :06:29.they want to keep the eye focused on President Obama and the unpopular
:06:30. > :06:32.healthcare law in the mid-term elections and not make it about
:06:33. > :06:42.them. Hopefully, they can pick up seats. That news sent stocks soaring
:06:43. > :06:46.today. The new chairman of the Federal reserve speaking for the
:06:47. > :06:49.first time. She indicated she will follow in the footsteps of her
:06:50. > :06:55.predecessor and keep interest rates low and stimulus coming. We have a
:06:56. > :06:59.new headline is not about the modern American family. We know that more
:07:00. > :07:05.and more mothers are the main breadwinners. Now we have a report
:07:06. > :07:08.that has uncovered something surprising about dads, chores and
:07:09. > :07:37.keeping the family happy. Our correspondent has more. This woman
:07:38. > :07:44.barramundi 40% of families where the kid is the primary breadwinner.
:07:45. > :07:49.Breadwinning mums have more stress. They are asked to do more. A recent
:07:50. > :07:52.study found that the total family income is higher when the mother,
:07:53. > :08:00.not the father, is the primary breadwinner. When I got a new job,
:08:01. > :08:06.he was making jokes about how he was not needed any more. The biggest
:08:07. > :08:09.burden is down. Only 60% of breadwinning women said that they
:08:10. > :08:12.were satisfied with the division of housework. Women like this woman
:08:13. > :08:23.from Chicago told us: This woman told us that she and her
:08:24. > :08:28.husband are always fighting over childcare. I feel like they have to
:08:29. > :08:35.call in their favour, or ask my husband to help out with the kids.
:08:36. > :08:40.There can be an overwhelming sense of responsibility. It is scary,
:08:41. > :08:46.everything rises and falls on you, the kid 's ability to go to college,
:08:47. > :08:50.your home, the car. This family think of themselves as a team,
:08:51. > :09:24.pioneers on a new frontier. They are committed to making it work.
:09:25. > :09:24.We are just hideous and news about our friend at ABC News. The
:09:25. > :09:25.long-time anchor at NBC revealed that he has been diagnosed with
:09:26. > :09:26.blood cancer. He says doctors are optimistic his treatment. He remains
:09:27. > :09:27.the luckiest guy he knows. We send our good thoughts to him is about.
:09:28. > :09:27.All day long, tributes pouring in for Shirley Temple. An American
:09:28. > :09:29.original who died at the age of 85. That is the Hollywood Walk of Fame
:09:30. > :09:30.tonight. Flowers I ring the pint sized girl who lifted America's
:09:31. > :09:50.spirits. -- 15 starring roles but the time she
:09:51. > :09:55.was ten, each with a happily ever after, because she really could
:09:56. > :10:10.dance. She really could act. I'll never see
:10:11. > :10:12.you again. She really could sing. Shirley Temple was not just the
:10:13. > :10:17.biggest child star of the day, she was the biggest star. Photographed
:10:18. > :10:24.more than the President. She always play the kid who figured out while
:10:25. > :10:30.shoe -- who she was, often wiser than the grounds around her. Her
:10:31. > :10:34.scenes with Bojangles Robinson has been described as the first time
:10:35. > :10:40.that Hollywood had allowed two races on the screen, while allowing their
:10:41. > :10:44.fingers to touch. We would hold hands, and I would have the steps
:10:45. > :10:52.with him. It was magic. That it was over, the later films stop pulling
:10:53. > :10:57.audiences. Her fame was going, so was the money. At the $3 million
:10:58. > :11:08.that I had earned from everything, coal sales, looks, clothing, I had
:11:09. > :11:13.$44,000 left. Rather than crash, she figured out who she was, and would
:11:14. > :11:19.be, in this part of her life, a wife and mother, and then, emulating this
:11:20. > :11:26.well-known actor, she turned to public service. In the middle of a
:11:27. > :11:31.democratic revolution, she was the US ambassador to Czechoslovakia. He
:11:32. > :11:41.was how she handled this personal challenge, a mastectomy, that lifted
:11:42. > :11:50.the secrecy around breast cancer. As for her life, 85 years of it, from
:11:51. > :11:57.this... Thank you very much. Can I go home now? To theirs. Thank you to
:11:58. > :12:02.the industry. In the have an enchanted and busy childhood. It was
:12:03. > :12:08.three great acts, plus, happily ever after, for real.
:12:09. > :12:14.So much service, so many roles. She said her greatest was as a wife,
:12:15. > :12:20.mother and grandfather. Still ahead: a father's plea during a road
:12:21. > :12:25.rage attack. His daughter in the car. What you do once in the wake
:12:26. > :13:12.this happens and you are behind the wheel? We are back in two minutes.
:13:13. > :13:17.It can happen in an instant, the kind of road rage eruption that
:13:18. > :13:23.kills 1500 Americans are yet. Tonight, we hear the terrifying 911
:13:24. > :13:30.call from a father and his daughter when they were attacked. Our
:13:31. > :13:36.correspondent has more. The 4-wheel brawl, a scourge of American
:13:37. > :13:41.highways. From this flying, to this lawyer and retired police officer
:13:42. > :13:45.checking it out on the highway. Now, what it is really like to be inside
:13:46. > :13:51.that moment of terror. A vicious attack on a N. Carolina St that left
:13:52. > :14:06.this career crumpled mess, and a father desperately calling 911.
:14:07. > :14:20.Twice was not enough. No argument between drivers, just a father and
:14:21. > :14:22.daughter on their way home. The dad looking for someone to hide, hoping
:14:23. > :14:40.police arrive soon. The Terra ending it only when he
:14:41. > :14:45.grabbed his daughter and ran into a stall. Followed by the mad driver on
:14:46. > :14:51.foot. Police believe he was on drugs. Finally subdued by store
:14:52. > :14:59.workers and police officers. He did the right thing, yes? Absolutely.
:15:00. > :15:04.Remember this. Not engage the other person. Do not look in the eye,
:15:05. > :15:16.gesticulate. Get weight populated, well lit area. -- get to a
:15:17. > :15:22.populated, well lit area. Finally tonight, twin sisters separated at
:15:23. > :15:27.birth, 5000 miles apart, speaking different languages. Neither aware
:15:28. > :15:31.of the other, before a random click of a mouse problem together as a
:15:32. > :15:38.family. An amazing two incidents and the journey of discovery it sparked.
:15:39. > :15:42.This girl was adopted at the age of four months. Like most, her entire
:15:43. > :15:47.essence of family was shaped by those immediately around her. I
:15:48. > :15:52.never felt like it was missing anything. One day, a random Facebook
:15:53. > :16:03.message, sent by a stranger living 5000 miles away. A French fashion
:16:04. > :16:07.designer. She had also been adopted. She had seen Samantha in a YouTube
:16:08. > :16:11.clip. My friend was watching one of your videos and thought we looked
:16:12. > :16:16.very similar. They discover that they were both born in the same
:16:17. > :16:22.Korean city, on the same day. A relationship born on social media.
:16:23. > :16:28.It moved to Skype. This is a really weird experience. That first
:16:29. > :16:39.meeting, three months later in London. What was the first thing you
:16:40. > :16:44.said? I had to make sure she was real. They shared not just a
:16:45. > :16:57.birthday, but a laugh. I will ask you a question. Enter at the same
:16:58. > :17:01.time. Coke or Pepsi? Despite the resemblance, they wanted
:17:02. > :17:11.to be sure. They had their DNA tested. It was exactly the same. The
:17:12. > :17:19.good results. -- we got our results. You are sisters, an shoe? Yes. There
:17:20. > :17:24.are both parents identity, and how they were separated, remains a
:17:25. > :17:31.mystery. While they do not have a pass, they do have the future. Now
:17:32. > :17:38.that I have a twin sister, anything is possible. What a lovely story.
:17:39. > :17:56.That is all for us. It is not good news, I am afraid.
:17:57. > :18:03.More unwelcome rain on the way and some severe wind gusts. A look at a
:18:04. > :18:04.satellite picture. But those of us working overnight, we will be
:18:05. > :18:06.looking at the
