Marie Curie East Side school this is your last chance to see a clue and to

now okay panelists remember you have ten

seconds to name the mystery job but you can think it over with your teammates before answering ten nine eight

excuse me builder somebody did you say a builder yeah what do you mean by a builder like building houses somebody

who builds yeah what do you think about that Angela

[Applause] [Music]

that's correct the job was an owner of a construction company so Marie Curie Side

school you just won the big job hunt [Applause]

have you ever wondered who puts the house together and makes all the plans who buys the lumber who hires the

plumbers and the carpenters and who sees that it all works out well in the end well that's what's running a

construction company is all about as you will soon see mrs. Gilda George is the

owner of a construction company in California watch closely

my name is Gilda Bojorquez Juraj I am a part owner of the Robert Parata

construction company I was one of the first Mexican American women to obtain

her b1 general contractor's license in the state of California the site that

I'm taking you to in Whistler California is a single residence family home that we are building we hope to sell it for

approximately two hundred and fifty thousand dollars I first met Bob parada

my partner when we both joined the California Association of Mexican American contractors almost impressed me

about bob was his intelligence and during our discussions we found that we

had the same goals and ideas about how a construction company should be run we

really don't have a problem that other people have because we don't look at each other as he is a man I am a woman

but that we are in full partners trying to accomplish our goals

and it's harder for people that work with their hands can make $30,000 a year

plumbers bricklayers and laborers so children I tell them should not be put

down because they're not doctors or attorneys the trades are a skill that is

being lost and I am always out begging young people to go into apprenticeship

programs because you can maintain your dignity I was born in East Los Angeles

it's the Mexican American ghetto I had a marvelous father papa

fortunately belong to the Steel Workers Union they build bridges and I think

that's when I thought gee I wish I could be a man but I didn't have to be a man because I'm in the construction industry

and I'm a woman one of the advantages of having your own business is that it

allows me to do some community work this is the Madonna daycare center we

renovated restored and remodeled this old house the Filipino community went to

the city of Los Angeles because they needed a daycare center for their children it's very gratifying to go back

and see the children enjoying our efforts and our work I know that they

are being educated in their language and our language and being able to grow when

I come back and see these children in this daycare center playing and learning it makes me happy because I've been able

to combine the running of a construction company for profit and my skills for the

betterment of a minority community [Music]

it's a w*r time here on the big job hunt and I'd like to present the max trophy

to our winners the Marie Curie Eastside school

[Music] and to our fine runners-up Columbus

school here's our consolation prize the minimax trophy [Music]

[Music]

[Music]

hi Sophie what you doing waiting for my bike to get fixed I'll come you're not coming to play

baseball anymore it's Maddie you'll like it it's not that I'm just tired of the

boys giving me a hard time telling me they don't want any girls on the team well don't let that bother you

they're just just because you get hit better than they can I don't count how

would you feel if someone told you that you couldn't do something just because you're a girl I'd be mad I'd also think

it was kind of silly well I just go find another friend I feel that it wasn't

fair so I'd get some other girls that wanted to do the same thing and have a protest it doesn't matter if you're a

boy or a girl as long as you can do it how would you feel

[Music]

[Music]

to make a vegetable vegetable soup

[Music]

[Music]

[Music] and now today's adventure of outer scope

to the museum and the beach Willie Eleanor and Henry have finally

arrived at the Museum where Tia Rosa works now they just have to find her hey

this must be the place there's the main entrance

pardon me do you work here yes we're looking for Tia Rosa do you know her I

sure do she just took over for me so I can for tonight she's in South America

and you tell us what she looks like she's wearing a green blazer you can't miss her good luck bye thank

you so much hey come on let's go this is

the South American Hall so we're in the right place she must be here somewhere South America is rich in many different

cultures Fanning of thousands of years this beautiful feather work is from the

forest tribes of the interior now I'd like to show you some magnificent gold

objects boy where could she be

do you think she's left the hall Hey that goes a lady in the green jacket around that corner come on let's go see

if it's to you Rosa this piece is one of

the last remaining artifacts from an early Ecuadorian civilization before the Spaniards arrived the rest was plundered

melted down and shipped back to Spain by the conquering Spaniards fortunately

this medallion was hidden and saved handed down from one generation to the

new house and claimed one I don't know I can't see it that's it that's it

it's the medallion we found it [Music]

wow what a place gee I didn't know their

beaches like this right here in New York City

well this is it okay let's get it over with okay

[Music]

[Music] [Applause]

[Applause]

maybe I'll sh**t you later okay soon as we get to the parade okay

[Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause]

[Music]

next time Tia Rosa and the other medallion

[Music]

[Applause] [Music]

[Music] have you ever wondered why some people

think newborn babies are funny-looking and others thing they're beautiful what

about a painting or sculpture maybe you

saw something beautiful but all your friend could see was a piece of junk or

what about the first time you saw someone who looked very different from what you're used to what did you think

well if any of this sounds familiar and you'll run into a question that people

have been asking for a long time what is

beauty now most people would agree that

roses are beautiful but what if they were the only kind of flowers it might

be rather boring so it is with humans

without the incredible variety of people in the world without the differences in

hair and eyes in dress and decoration we wouldn't have so many fascinating ideas

about what is beautiful [Music]

beauty can be expressed in the choice of clothes in a special hairstyle in

jewelry and decorations and it could

also be expressed with a smile because all the most wonderful clothing hair and

decorations can only make someone beautiful if they feel it inside

[Music]

when you look for that kind of beauty the inside kind there is no limit to

where you can find it perhaps that's the

real magic of beauty it's always new and fresh because it comes from our own

feelings and emotions mixed with what we hear and see and touch the real magic is

when we each find our own sense of beauty

[Music] it's time to tell a story

it's no for Italian time [Music]

I'm a peple the wind and I have been here since the beginning of time

listen to my soft breezes whisper in your ear and I will tell you a story in

the days when you could still lend your beauty it was not yet known except by

men of magic like on gumo and myself that on one's face you could be the good

and the evil in that time there were two young twin sisters see them there

playing in the Sun sweet a sunny with

you are beautiful and I am NOT and those flowers won't help it was not long

before they reached the age for marry is sunny with her kind ways and gentle

eyes was very popular a little bio with her sharp tongue that mean look scared

the young men away oh buyer you will

never marry if you keep on insulting everyone that is not why it's only

because I am ugly and you are beautiful Oh bye that is not true if you really

think that my face will get you a husband then let us change faces Hasani

with your face you will see I will marry immediately and it was done the next

morning the bias started on her journey wearing the face of his sunny soon she

approached the village where the chief was looking for [Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

I wish to marry will you be my wife my

bride until the marriage took place and

the villagers danced but never once during the ceremony little by a speak

yes by with the face of hassan ii time

will tell if you keep your beauty on your face it will be clear what has

happened to his son ii now that she wears her sister's face no suitors have come to call and her

friends the animals are worried he now

has the face of a fire we must find a

groom for he has the Rainbows magic he will paint her as she really is let us

call him [Music]

[Music]

my friends we have called you to paint our friend he sunny she has exchanged

faces with her mean sister who paya and we fear she will never marry we will

bring her to you and so the animals bought is sunny too and Google though

she wore the face of a buyer all he could see was her inner beauty is sunny

I do not need to paint you though I have searched for many years I have never

before met the woman who I wished to marry is sunny will you be my wife

yes and gumo for on your face it is written that you are a man of truth

don't wipe there can't you see boomers rainbows turning

for me look right there right to be lovely

Hasani come dance with me

[Music]

[Music] [Applause]

[Music] [Applause]

and as the years went quickly passing on Ansari's face a beauty you could tell

drawn a bias whose tongue kept lashing the cruelty came back you could see it

well Subbaiah ever since we have been married you have been me and sharp of

tongue the woman I married was beautiful you have become ugly I am mean and ugly

because my sister has come and stolen my beauty we must go to her and make her return my

face you are a chief you must order her to do it Sylvia and the chief started

out or the Sun is village and they saw that it was true as Sunny's face was

beautiful like a sunny standing there you are a jewel I do declare like a

flower standing my wife why I was right your

wife Hasani has stolen her beauty it is with my wife's face that she's standing like a flower see I told you she had

stolen my beauty oh no chief my wife has not stolen your wife's face she is

wearing her own beauty that time has written there who buyer as mean and cool and so it is written on her face do not

it even for you his sunny but I will try by yes with colours flowing I will try

to paint you Lloyd look to see I painted beauty but your face came through more

Julie mix new colors you do know how try your hardest try again now it doesn't matter

how I paid you all my magic cannot change you yes chief

you can see just standing there Sonny's face she cannot wear abaya if beautiful

you want to be then you must change with in you see that's how it is you are

right in this time when people can lend their beauty it was foolish for me to marry you buyer just because she looked

beautiful I decree that from this time forward no longer may anyone exchange

faces have told you the story how faces

keep changing one by one your eyes have seen they don't deceive you the kind

look who you've seen it done the kind look who you've seen it done and so I

have carried the words throughout the land exceeds upon the wind no man is

from China there are other kinds of making Italy but look judo was

originally from China we can make it with all kinds of leftover meat and vegetables but before you cut the

vegetables you have to wash them very clean and when you use the knife

careful now cut them into very thin strips because Chinese cooked and

vegetable we're fast hey that's why we have to cut them very small give me the onion now we're gonna cut

the need this is leftover roast beef and

you can use any kind of leftover meat ham or leftover chicken okay you start

telling it maybe she can help you okay I'm Teddy now let's go and fry the

vegetables lupus turmoil in fish oil for tablespoon

okay and half a cup of water

I saw pepper to taste then we turn on high heat they steam for 5 minutes

[Music] fighting news about all the noodles Chinese Americans viewed the thighs that

noodles there's seaweed and wheat shrimps bean and rice their constant heat let's make the sauce put 1

tablespoon of cornstarch in this boat and 2 tablespoon of water in ice turn

around okay kale put 1 tablespoon of sugar into

the bowl and one taste of soy sauce and mix it together now we're gonna throw the

median and the sauce really appears many

Chinese they meant a lifelong and good so they served among days whenever late cause no it's good it is for you Eddie

hmm yeah well we came out fine you can

try it yourself when you got the time was working in the kitchen there's a lot of fun and when you're finished you can

eat what you've done [Music]

[Music]

[Applause] [Music]

what makes people's here look and feel different everybody's hair is made of

the same thing but it looks and feels different depending on the color and the

way it grows out of your skin let's pluck a few hairs and look at them up

close you know in the whole world there

are only three kinds of hair there's curly hair and straight hair and

wavy hair which is in between just looking at hairs however won't tell us

why they grow the way they do every hair on your head or your body grows out of a

tiny hole called a follicle a follicle is something like a tiny flowerpot that

the hair grows out of and the roots stay inside of if you have round follicles in

your skin then you have straight hair if your follicles are flat you have curly

hair and if your follicles are in between shaped like ovals then you have

wavy hair here's a way to show how this happens using three cake decorators each

filled with play-doh one has a flat opening and one has a round opening and

one has an in-between oval opening you squeeze the cake decorators and see what

happens curly

straight and wavy

the shape of your follicles and the color of your hair comes from your parents and your grandparents you can

have red hair like your mother and curly hair like your grandmother any

combination of hair color and hair shape is possible so that's what curly hair

comes in all colors and so just drain hair and so does in

between wavy hair Rajib but no matter what kind of hair you have the most

important thing is that you like it and you take good care of it straight you

wash it and brush it Coleman

braid it and don't forget to love it

[Music]

get [Music]
