[Music] and now today's adventure of outer scope
to Chun the kite maker mr. Han doesn't know anything about Chun the sail make
that but he thinks he knows someone who does we've named our new school after him well there's nothing here on your
chun-li but don't give up Jimmy your
father's with Chun Bo Fung and that old kite maker knows as much about old Chinatown as anyone around I bet he can
help you find your sail maker gee thanks a lot Wow let's go see cheung wah-fung can you take us there
sure I don't no way come on great maybe we'll all get lucky now
there another one finished you made that look so easy mr. Chun well I had a lot
of practice it must be more than just the coincidence that your name is Chun
buffoon Chun of the enchanted wind my father was very much involved with the
wind he was a sail maker long ago how long exactly have you been making these
fantastic kites I guess you could say all my life it's been with me since I
was a little boy it's a dying art now
but it's such a thrill to select your own piece of split bamboo wood to cut
shave sand and shape it to your own design there's a fine balance and feel
you get to know when you do it yourself when you fit the wood and stretch the
string and lock it in place the kite is almost alive oh it lacks is the right
covering the weight and color of the paper to give it its own uniqueness its
personality what about the tales some need little or no tales depending on how
we add the lead string others require large ones what kind and how much tale
they eventually have determines the final personality whether it's a preening peacock or unassuming but
steady workhorse it also determines how stable it is doesn't it how well it
handles in the air it's the ultimate test of one's craftsmanship to see it fly as it's designed to let's go give it
a test do you still test them in Central Park yes I do it's still the best place I know of lots
of open space lots of shifting breezes might as well see if this one is worth
its weight in gold is that what the golden moon stands for I know you've
always put them on your kites sort of but not really come
let's go test them
goodness Henri Chinatown
the emblem represents a real gold medallion you would need quite a few
clues and a good bit of luck to track down the medallion and the person who has it even I don't have any
of the real clues I do know that a diary and a map existed at one time if someone
were lucky enough to find those
[Music] come on the kite shop is this way follow
us you guys okay you know it's a funny thing about this diary it's giving us
just barely enough clues to keep going it's really the people we meet by Jimmy Julian hatch what helped us the most
yeah we should I've met some nice people but back there doc oh look at that
statue who is it that Confucius yosakoi philosopher and a teacher from a long
time ago these are some wonderful things one of my favorite is wisdom mr. no men
and virtue is to love me [Music]
I wonder why that map and diary might be why is that emblem on some of your kites
if it's something to be kept secret that emblem the medallion is something that
has meant a great deal to me ever since I was a boy it was then that I first saw
the medallion how did you come to see him my father was proud to have kept it
for a time holding it for the man to whom it was originally and trusted and
you don't know who has it now no I don't I could guess and I'm pretty sure it
must still be in worthy hands but who knows it certainly would be nice to know
where it is for sure wow what a story one thing is certain there have been bad
people who tried to steal it in the past if word of its existence got out again
I'm sure some villain would try to steal
this is it look at that emblem it's the medallion he paints this
our office best kites hey maybe Jambo Tsonga kite maker and Chumlee the
sailmaker are related
nobody home that means that they have gone too far but don't worry I know a
fascist kite say weren't those two guys
the same two funny-looking creeps we saw in that small park I think it goes right
I know it is them we're being followed let's get out of here
[Music] next time the medallion kite
[Music]
what do you want to know
[Music]
this is a sand painting it's an art invented by an American Indian tribe
hundreds of years ago these kids have a
special interest in learning about the art and lives of Indians because they are Native American Indians too
[Music] sure they go to school watch TV play
baseball and do all of the other things that kids do but they also take pride in
learning some of the ways of their Indian culture who are Indians the name
Indian comes from India that's where the European explorers
thought they were going when they sailed west their Maps didn't even show an
American continent when they hit land they mistook it for India and call the
people Indians but the people of America had their own names not one overall name
like Indians but separate names for each group or tribe names like Mi'kmaq which
means salt water people and hoping which means the peaceful people or Cheyenne
which means simply the people there are more than 500 different tribes just in
North America ok my name name is Nelson hopper and I'm from the clarity Cuomo
tribe my tribe is me walk with Sanyo
actually that really says it all right there belonging to a tribe is like belonging
to a very big family it is an important connection no matter where an Indian may
live Native Americans from different tribes it can be as different as say a
Swede and an Italian long before the
explorers came the American Indians had found many different ways to live in
some areas the people lived in tent like houses called teepees which were easily
moved to follow the best hunting other tribes planted crops and built more
permanent houses like the Southwest Indians whose pueblos may have been the first apartment houses
fishing was a main source of food for the Northwest Coast tribes they built sturdy lodges from giant redwood trees
and there were many other ways of life for the first Americans [Music]
but things have changed since those days just as the settlers don't live in log
cabins or prairie huts anymore many Indians no longer live in lodges or teepees Native Americans are part of
modern America this Indian man is an architect this Native American woman is
a doctor there are American Indian construction workers researchers
computer programmers and so on but the
older ways do not just disappear almost
all of these Native Americans feel a deep loyalty to the lives of Indians used to do
[Music]
for many years American Indians were told to be like the white men to adopt
those ways but the Indian ways are just as beautiful and valuable and just as
important for the young people to learn Matthew why don't you pick a leaf
California Indians would just sniff the bay leaf to clear their sinuses or cure their headaches these kids are learning
about another part of their Native American culture the old ways were rich
in knowledge about animals and plants American Indians were the first to grow
tomatoes corn and many other crops now raised all over the world many of the
plants they use for curing illness are being rediscovered by modern medicine
[Music] Native Americans lived in harmony with
nature taking only as much as they needed there was little waste no
pollution for at least twenty five thousand years the native Indian tribes
were careful guardians of the American continent let's hope that those who've come after
you can do as well [Music]
to tell a story it's the retelling time the most widely
celebrated holiday throughout the world is New Year in Japan eating a specially
prepared rice cake marks the passing of a year and brings good luck for the
coming year it is an old and joyous tradition that is shared by many Japanese Americans there is a legend
that tells an elderly man and his wife who were too poor to share in this tradition the day after tomorrow is New
Year's and we have no rice cake to celebrate it
I can buy some tomorrow but first I must sell my hats in the village
[Music] hats straw hats for sale hats the next
day the poor hat maker tried to sell his hats in the village but the villagers
did not hear him they were busy preparing for the holiday no one paid
him any attention no one bought his hats and so he left the village to return
home on his way home he saw six statues
standing by the side of the road you must be cold standing here in the wind
my hats will comfort you they will keep your heads warm and sheltered from the
snow [Music]
[Music]
welcome home as someone bought your hats
and then he told her how he had taken pity on the statues
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music] look a rice cake
the statues have returned your kindness they have given us a rice cake for New
Year's thank you thank you and so the
old couple celebrated a Happy New Year

[Music]
that's right the job is a medical doctor congratulations Skyler you just won the
big job hunt
now let's meet and talk with dr. Lucy r*fle who is completing her residency in
Denver Colorado
my name is Lucy r*fle I am a Sioux Indian from rosebud South Dakota I am
studying pediatrics and medicine in Denver Colorado I knew that I liked
science I knew that I liked taking care of people probably about the time I was
around eight or nine years old but that's the time when everybody keeps telling you that oh you don't want to be
a doctor why don't you be a nurse why don't you be a lab technician or something like that doc being a doctor
is too difficult and I just kind of stuck with it in the morning rounds are
generally held in every Hospital the purpose of these rounds is to see if
there are any problems that have occurred over the night this is Raul he
was admitted to the hospital because he was not eating well during the time in
the hospital he has learned how to drink juices how to eat foods and is gaining
weight day-by-day five ten bed one is Tanya Harris this meeting is where the
doctors and nurses and social workers get together and discuss problems that a
child may be having and try to come up with some solution for it this is
newborn Center USA at Denver Children's Hospital in Denver Colorado it is a
place where very small babies are brought to be taken care of until they
are able to live and breathe and eat on their own the wires that you see
attached to the baby are actually attached to a machine that measures the
baby's heartbeat and measures how fast the baby's breathing these are things
that are very important in monitoring how the baby is doing it's
hard work being a doctor it's long hours frequently I'm up all night as I was
last night but it's still a lot of fun it's an enjoyable work it's rewarding
work it's the kind of thing that you can do and feel like you're doing something even though you spend a lot of time
doing it this baby is a healthy normal newborn it
is about one day old now and looks like what normal newborns look like doing
normal newborn kinds of things when I put my finger to the baby's mouth he
turns his head and begins to suck on my finger this is what he does when he eats
normally from a bottle or from his mother's breasts my ultimate goal is to
work on the reservation in South Dakota the Rosebud reservation as a doctor and
take care of Indian people good now what
you're gonna find to put in this little boy is rensil Jones he doesn't look very happy in this film but generally he's
very very happy he's very playful he knows all the nurses he knows his way
around the hospital it's almost like his home there it's all done are you better
today good how about that max very good
good good max before we go any further I just want to check something
you won't believe this max gk3 rl2 is loose there I plugged it in for you
should feel better now since your condensers plugged in oh wow I feel so
much better you mean it wasn't long johns fall not this time
it probably was a mistake made when you had your checkup gee I was sure it was spoil sport so was i but this should be
a lesson to both of us max just because we don't like spoil sport or anything we convicted him of something that he
didn't do without any evidence you're right sue I apologize long-john I never
thought I'd see the day when gnats would treat me in a decent way but Kronos let
no one be fooled spoil sports villainy has not cooled yeah yeah it's award time
here on the big job hunt and I'd like to present the max trophy to the Skylar school
[Applause] and to our fine runners-up Griffin
school here's our minimax trophy [Applause]

[Applause] [Music] [Applause]
[Music]
the phone and I'm in the mood to tell y'all about a very special food right
that's right rice is a transfer from millions if nursed for that eating pleasure in Japan and China it's a
sacred grain and they love it in America Africa and Spain mister you're from
Japan yeah I came from Japan four years ago well we're going to make Japanese
rice ba*ls today onion giddy all right Claudia will you get just enough water
to that rim there do you see that RIM and faith I wants to put the salt in
here it doesn't matter
do you know what the water is for I know I don't want is for you to be nervous
right right right is very sticky so you wet your hands so they won't stick on
your hands this is called seaweeds and American people but the Japanese people
call it naughty you like this have you ever tasted their around their eyes tuna
fish today and like it mmm and a little
show you a soy sauce
that's about it I'll go and see if the rice is ready all right okay
hmm seems to be just about right first take your hands and then with the
palms of it together with the other home not too much but just enough to wet it
all right and let's see we'll put this right in the center for all of us okay
put a little salt on there and then rub it on your palm very good very
thoroughly we'll salt down there and no but a little bit on faiths palm a little
bit on meters okay a little bit for Claudia now the trick is that you use
your hands like this see you see your your hands on the
triangle-shaped can I make him into a book cuz I don't know how to make a triangle if you can't do a triangle
don't worry just make it any way that you want to good we have a nice round one oh that's the Japanese pickles we
call it good you look at okay this will flavor your rice now next one I'm gonna
put some kind of fish in there okay it's
a tuna fish in there now this one we're gonna wrap it with a seaweed and here's
the seaweed or on OD as we call it wrap it first on one side and then unto the
other alright let's sprinkle some sesame seed on all of these take a little and
sprinkle it this will make it taste very crunchy and nutty like do you want to taste what
you've made Claudia what kind do you want me to you
said you wanted us with fugiens okay you pick it out thanks what kind are you going to have I
just helped yourself the plain one okay

you've done [Music]
[Music]
yeah hi Kyra why haven't you been coming to dancing class anymore well some of
the kids were laughing at me and they said that there weren't today black ballerinas and that I would look funny I
know to chew that's crazy your monk works for the most of the older girls besides there's a lot of
black ballerinas just don't pay any attention to them they're probably jealous or something
what would you do if someone tried to make you feel bad for doing something you liked
I'd start doing it or else I'll laugh I would ignore them I told him that I
liked it and just because they didn't like it that shouldn't make fun of me I do it because it's me doing it what
would you do [Music]
[Music]
[Music]
