and now today's adventure of outerscope one space spin it's time to get going

again and maybe this trip will get us back home to our system checks out I don't

think you'll have any trouble Eleanor looks like everything except for takeoff okay ready now places everyone

takeoff and this time we know where

we're going yeah it's simple well I'm not so sure I understand

listen Henry the backhoe lad this gave us the clues were searching for they told us their world is the opposite side

of the universe from our planet so we just point out of scope directly away

from Bakkal and by doing that we're bound to hit earth at least it sounds

logical oh it must be right look there's light ahead there is this line we're

almost out of the dark corridor almost back at our old universe [Music]

oh how beautiful the back Landers were right gee it's lucky we were finally

able to talk to them man it sure is once we were able to understand though they

were really friendly and helpful but remember when we first got there we thought they were a bunch of weirdos

everything they said and did seemed so strange that just shows you it's not

smart to size people up too quickly yes I know what Edgar means it took time to understand what they were really like

I'm glad we kept on trying well we're on the right track now we'll be home soon

Hey look at the portholes

[Music]

hey I think we're going into a spin we sure we're going faster I can't move me

neither even I can't

[Music]

[Music]

look sharp look sharper here I come my name is hit grunt and I spoil fun

poor poor hate got the ugly beasts no

one could love him in the least that's why he steals that's why he takes that's

why he likes the trouble and makes

during the night these treasures he stole and now he'll hide them in his

hole mark what is this that hate got spies did hate got pull this from the

skies yes hey guts mighty breath did this nothing at all does hate got Miss

Anne dark look here a brand new treasure it got will have it for his pleasure

then take some more [Applause]

[Music]

to be continued next time caught with the loot my name is Bing okie and I'm a

gardener I started working with plants when I went to Japan four years ago and

worked on my uncle's farm I learned many things but garden is very different and

family so when I came back home in 1950 and started gardening I had a lot of

things to our California plants and weather very different procedure and

they need different care My Luck is always changing because the

plans changed with each season the spring it's time went plans are just

beginning to draw in the summer plants grow faster and so I have to have a

girth more often [Music] when I get home I'd like to talk with my

family and find out how their day went and then relax for me relaxing is

working on my bonsai garden I've been

working on my bonsai garden for 17 years [Music]

I have about hundred trees son loading over 200 years old but because they are

bonsai their majors growing older but not bigger my bonsai trees need constant

care and attention even after the roots are chilled and the tree stops growing

bigger the branches and leaves need to be cut [Music]

but it is not only a small tree that we want in bonsai but a beautiful one to

get this item and wire the branches to create a natural looking shade it is

best when you cannot see any marks or signs that the trees have been cut or

wired to grow a certain way the tools that we use in bonsai

very special and mostly from Japan

I give classes in bonsai gardening and try to teach that it takes patience and

many years of a walk and studied to be good at bonsai I enjoy my work of the

gardener because I work with living plants and can see them grow and change

month Bible with my help bonsai garden is my jack station and art

and for me it is a divvy [Music]

here it comes get the most authentic super detailed rescue boat you've ever

[Music] [Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

it's 210 doggie it's the retelling time a story of the

superlative horse continues when Han Khan finally made an unlikely choice an

ordinary-looking brown style and Guangzhou was delighted he could hardly

wait to get away and he was afraid Hong Kong would change his mind he was beside

himself with joy and glee as he hurried back to court he could hardly wait to

tell everyone what a fool Hottentot had been how he had paid 1000 gold bars for

at mangy brown horse how he had completely ignored a beautiful white

stallion that was a match for any in a Duke stable a stallion more magnificent

than any Wang h* had ever seen my eager chief minister if this horse was indeed

as magnificent as you described why did you not buy him for yourself I would

have of course except for as you know I don't care much for horses boy would you

have us believe that a man who does not care much for horses is that to be a good judge of horses I think I can judge

as well as the next man oh but I shouldn't think to have my bar

but she was my horses much as we admire the way he trims my beard now I think we

have heard enough or the horse Han God did not choose and that it would be fairer to judge by the horse he has

chosen where is polo he is taking his tea does

he know the horses here polo sends word that he trusts it is a good horse but that he has seen many

good horses in his life and prefers not to interrupt his tea to see one more he

asks me to remind you that he is nearly 70 and trusts he will understand that at

the approach of 71 hurries only to see a superlative horse should the horse be a

superlative horse you ought to send word and he will come at once ah we all know

why Poor's not here polo is not here for the reason he has given and also because

the horse is Hong Kong's choice and it is I who must judged the wisdom of the choice ah at last here is Hank I'm

coming now let us see the horse he has finally chosen how did God tell us about

the horse you have chosen we have been waiting impatiently what color is it is it a mayor or a stallion it is a

dun-colored mayor ah that must be the horse over there bring her to me

but handguns surely you must be mistaken this horse is that a dun-colored mayor

this horse is brown ah yes so it is and

this is not a mayor this is a stallion

yes so it is you Moo was astonished horse was neither dun-colored nor a mare

when Duke mu pointed this out honkin merely shrugged as if he didn't notice

the Duke was furious leave me Huell Hakka if only he picked the white

stallion there was a horse you two leave me

[Music]

Paul you have advised me badly the boy whom I commissioned to look for a horse

has no eye at all he can neither distinguish a horse's color nor can you telomere from a stallion and will see

the horse [Music]

[Applause] [Music]

[Music] there's no comparison between me and Han

Khan he is worth ten thousand of me put

together deer polo have you lost your good senses is that horse a dun-colored

mayor doesn't matter matter tell me how

many stallions have you in your stables mm perhaps and how many mares eighteen

thousand more or less and which are the better horses the Stallions or d-nice it

depends on the horse some of the stallions are superior and some of the mayors of course and how many light

colored horses - you have a goodly number how many dark horses there are

many dark horses you know as well as I yes and which are the better horses the

light or a dark horses it depends on the horse he certainly

the excellence of a horse does not depend on its sex or color or breed or boot excellence is a matter of the heart

and spirit of the earth it is this that

Hangang keeps in mind in keeping his

eyes on the inner qualities of the horse he loses sight of the external details

he look at things as sea otter look at they know as those that do not matter

you mean there are horses appearance is of no importance of little importance

you know Duke Liu the judging of horses is important true but it is also useful

to be able to judge between a good idea and a poor idea and to be able to judge

men and women as they truly are not just by their appearance it would not

surprise me at all at this Hong Kong to prove able to judge not only horses but

people and ideas that's why

[Music]

excuse me do cool honk artists here I

spoke in haste a test of a good horse is after all in his performance

[Music] if the horse you have chosen for me can

keep pace with any horse in my stables I will do honor to polos good opinion of

you and keep you at my service as this to you seemed just it is a race

you wish to see them that is always a good test may I choose the horse to race

against you may is not allowed him to choose his own horse he will choose the

slowest haast in the stable to make his poor horse look good your remarks are a disrespect to polo some of my horses may

be less fleet than others but none is slow and if a country boy on his first

try can choose a horse equal to one chosen by the great polo he has an eye

that can learn to judge wisely

[Applause] [Music]

on the day of the race a great crowd assembled the course had been laid out

through rough terrain it was to be a test of endurance as well as speed

[Music]

are you certain you wish to race against this horse is he not the best of the

horses in your stable why yes I think he is that is why I have chosen him a race

against an inferior horse holds no honor the two horses drew up to the starting

line and then Dooku himself let go the banner which signal the start of the

race at the fall of the banner stallion

sprang forward like arrows released [Music]

to everyone's surprise the brown stallion brand effortlessly keeping pace

with great white horse [Music] out held his breath

and then slowly the white began to pull ahead [Music]

poggle saw his chance will you raise a

d*ck move I cannot put corn against my own stallion there is no need to wage a coin

that the way should be simply that is the boy disappoint you he will consult me in the selection of a

chieftain and if he does not then you will not need my advice fair enough I accept the wager if I am

disappointed in the boy I shall consult you in the selection of chief groom and

if I am NOT I shall make you chief postmaster and I shall consult polo in

the selection of a chief minister

just then the two horses disappeared behind the hill and for few moments they

were out of sight and just for the crowd turned the horses came back into view

and a white stallion was still ahead [Music]

race was now close to the finish in an incredible burst of speed the brown

horse edged those two nose with a great white horse pasture by

he ran effortlessly his hooves touched so lightly to the track that the dust

was ghastly disturbed you have indeed brought me a superlative horse

and you have earned the right to be my new chief groom

[Music] and so it was Hong Kong brought his

family to live in a court and became chief rule

[Music]

[Applause] [Music] and so it was that banco became the

chief postmaster the brown stallion crew famous

throughout the country and in days to come many artists and painters tried to

capture his inner beauty and his grace but it was not until a blind artist

carved his likeness into the side of a rock that the brown stallions true beauty must fully expressed the great

horse became a symbol of an eternal truth that people should not be judged

by appearances but by the inner qualities of heart and spirit

[Applause] [Music]

we're over

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

Wow very good and you'll have the whole

neighborhood shouting hey look at this

standing over there you're standing on the wrong side I know the opposite of

right is wrong but the opposite of right is us left

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Laughter]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

and now today's adventure of outerscope one caught with the loot a terrible

monster like some giant vacuum cleaner pulled out a Scott word right out of the

sky and made us crash look sharp now he inhales into his mouth

why he likes the trouble he makes look

[Music]

my name is Sojourner Truth I'm a

self-made woman I cannot read a book but

I can read people Sojourner Truth was

born in the state of New York in 1797 the first 30 years of her life was as a

sl*ve owned by another person be forced to work for them for nothing

when Sojourner won her own freedom she went to court to get freedom for her child at that time this was unheard of

but it was the start of her life as one of the early fighters for equal rights for her black brothers and sisters

children I speak to go

speaks to me who believed that she was doing God's work gave her the courage to

stand up and speak in front of people and often made them cry now children who

made your skin white was it not God who made mine black

was it not God now children you remember what soldier 'no truth has told you

Sojourner travelled through many states covering thousands of miles often on

foot in order to bring the truth to the people once when a man rudely

interrupted her o woman do you think your talk about sl*very doesn't eat good well I don't

care anymore for your talk than I do for the part of a flea perhaps not God women

I'll keep you scratching she told them

about her life is a sl*ve and why all people should be free sojourners bravery

earned her the respect many other famous people against sl*very and the oppression of women in 1864 when she met

with Abraham Lincoln the President of the United States she pointed out mr.

president before you became president of the United States I never heard of you

Lincoln smiled and answered I have often heard of you you remember what soldier

'no truth has told you [Music]

do you want [Music]

hi my name is James my father's name is Jaime Carell he helps people who have

legal problems how do you do it dad well people come to me when they need help

with the rules and laws of our country I talked to my clients so that I can understand what it is they want to prove

in court but to do a good job in court I first have to spend time in my office preparing what I'm going to say in court

for my client I look up the laws and read about the cases like the one I'm trying to prove now this way I'll know

all there is to know about my case what are some in your case is about I usually

have ten or fifteen cases at one time and they're all different but I'll tell you about one of them one of my clients

got a ticket for going through a red light because I studied the law books I know that he needs someone else who saw

the light to come to court a witness and he did find a witness that said he also

saw that the light was green did you think the light was green yep the judge

decided that my client was innocent but it isn't always easy that's why it's

very important for me to talk with my client and study his case before I go to court do you have to go to court for all

your cases no but for most of them I do in court that judge listens to both

sides the court lawyers side and mind most cases also involve witnesses people

who tell what they saw after everyone have had a chance to tell what they believe to be the truth about

the case that judge decides if my client is guilty or innocent

that sounds like a lot of important work that it is that's why I have to do the

very best job I can to do this often mean spending time working at home as

you know I usually spend a couple of hours after dinner working in the cases I have so that I'll be ready to defend

my clients in court the next day

mom understands and she helped me get into those few extra hours working at home I'd like to take on new cases and

concentrate on different kinds of law and I'm getting interesting cases all the time

there are many moments of satisfaction and the work I do as a lawyer because each case is different

[Music] and I'm always learning new things about

along and and about people so even

though I have to work very hard and spent many hours preparing my cases I

really enjoy my job and I feel it's well worth it [Music]

it was Oakland over Denver in a close battle that saw the lead change hands three times in the second half that win

what's the ring why doesn't everybody talk like I do

funny I wonder why they don't talk like me hello Curtis I'm miss Olson and I'm

happy to have you John in our class why doesn't she talk like me people don't

always sound the same because not everybody grew up hearing people talk the way you heard them talking is not

something you learn from books when you were a baby you learn to talk by

watching and listening to people around you talk your father your mother your

sisters brothers and Friends since we all have different families and friends

who came from different parts of the world with different ways of talking it's only natural that we sometimes

sound funny to each other if you ever heard your voice on a tape recorder you

may even sound funny to yourself my name

is Curtis Robinson I go to homestead school I like sports I play although it's important to learn to use words

properly there is no one right way to speak any language either use a special

way that each of us speaks English is called our accent oh and everyone has some kind of accent

[Music] may I take order now I guess we're ready

Jane I'd like the chicken teriyaki often

you don't notice your own accent until you're around people who speak in other ways the sound of a language is changed

by accents I learn hamburger that's one chicken teriyaki it's also changed by

new words which may be borrowed from other languages or by slang words which

we just make up yeah cannot catch it the new words we add to our language make it

grow and become more colorful in the same way that salt or pepper or soy

sauce often make food taste better so

don't let the way someone talks keep them from being your friend we may all sound different but we have a lot of the

same thoughts and feelings to say with our words la Luna b*llet all day Paso

por ayudarnos Diaz why don't they speak English they sure are dumb why did you

call a stupid we speak two languages [Music]

[Music]

[Music]
