00:00Coming up on LTV, we visit mass boobies in the Galapagos.
00:11The Mighty Mites witness the battle of a spider and a scorpion.
00:14Born apart, the talking skeleton, and Daniel discuss fat and thin.
00:18The Hoot Club kids build their own musical instruments.
00:30New day, it's a brand new start.
00:38New world, we have brand new hearts.
00:45There's so much to see and do for me and all my friends.
00:49There's just no way to hold it back.
00:51Let me tell you where that feeling comes.
00:54Oh, for me, like natural energy, I can't sit still.
01:02So polite, you and I've got me.
01:18Owl TV visits the Galapagos Islands to look at mass boobies with Carlos, our guide, and Ryan.
01:25Can you tell me what these birds are?
01:28What you see right there are mass boobies.
01:31There are three species of boobies found here in the Galapagos Islands.
01:36Blue-footed boobies, red-footed boobies, and mass boobies.
01:40These are the mass boobies, and these are the largest of the three species.
01:44And this island has got a fairly nice colony of mass boobies.
01:49Why are these birds called boobies?
01:51Well, boobies come from the Spanish boobies, and that is because the funny way they have
01:56of walking, you see, they...
01:59Waddle.
01:59Yeah, waddle is a word.
02:01These birds were called boobies, and then I guess it's the derivative of boobies.
02:06Why are they called masked boobies?
02:10Is it because of their markings?
02:12If you look at this bird, there is this black mark around his beak, which gives the impression
02:17of a mask.
02:18They're also called white boobies, but normally here in the Galapagos, they're known as mass
02:23boobies.
02:26Can you tell the difference between male and female by any marking?
02:30You can't really tell the difference in these animals by just looking at them.
02:34But if you pay attention, listen to the voice.
02:36The female makes this squawky sound that you hear.
02:43The female hunks, and the male whistles.
02:46Do you notice the difference?
02:48Can you hear the difference, the squawky sound and then the whistle between the two?
02:53Yes, you can hear it pretty well.
02:56Most of them are in pairs.
02:58This is a nesting colony.
02:59Here, they're obviously to mate, and to make pairs.
03:02Why is that bird a whistling?
03:04It's part of a courtship behavior.
03:08Courtship behavior means it's trying to attract a mate.
03:12In this case, that is a male, and he's trying to attract a female, and she's trying to be
03:18a bit indifferent to him.
03:19But look, they know each other, and he keeps calling her.
03:24That's what we call sky pointing.
03:27Is there any particular dance that they do, like a mating dance?
03:31Yeah, they have a very particular mating dance.
03:35One of the mates will come to the other, and will start walking in this very funny way,
03:42and will start lifting pieces of wood or feathers, and putting it close to her, next to her, or
03:49him, and actually both get involved in doing this.
03:52And it's like if they were building a nest, but they don't.
03:56This, perhaps, indicates that the ancestors of these birds built a nest, and now they don't
04:03anymore.
04:03So they keep it only as a ritual.
04:05If they don't have a nest, where do they lay their eggs?
04:11Well, they just put them on the ground.
04:13They clear an area, and they put both eggs right there, right on the ground.
04:19What will happen later is that because the bird is incubating the eggs, and it's squirting,
04:25it will make a Wano ring around this eggs.
04:29What is Wano?
04:31Oh, Wano is nothing else but just bird excrement.
04:36How many eggs do they lay?
04:38Two eggs, five days apart.
04:40These birds are mid-coastal birds, and to find their food, they have to fly off the coast
04:50and come back.
04:52Now, this food is not always enough for those, for both chicks.
04:56Both chicks won't survive if their parents will have to go out every time and bring food.
05:02I mean, there will never be enough, and they will both die.
05:04Okay, so what happens is that now these birds lay the two eggs with five days apart.
05:11So one is going to hatch first, and one is going to grow faster.
05:16It's going to be bigger than the other one.
05:17So the older brother is always going to kill the younger brother.
05:21So only one really comes out.
05:22That's right.
05:23And the parents are totally indifferent to this attitude of the older chick.
05:28It seems like they know that's what's really going to help them to succeed on the breeding cycle.
05:32Why is the white bird jiggling his throat?
05:35That is called guler fluttering.
05:38What that bird is doing is nothing else but cooling down.
05:41When they are nesting, they are really exposed to very high temperatures.
05:46And they have several ways to cool down.
05:49And one of the main ones is this guler fluttering that is agitating this guler, their throat,
05:55like what the dogs do, panting.
05:57Most birds have a brooding patch.
06:01It's an area that is well provided with veins and vessels.
06:06On their stomach?
06:07That's right, yeah.
06:08The boobies don't have this.
06:10How does it eat the eggs?
06:12Do you see the feet?
06:14Their web.
06:15Their web, right.
06:16That web is provided with vessels and veins,
06:20and it's actually what they use to give heat to the eggs.
06:24The boobies don't sit on the eggs.
06:27They stand on the eggs to incubate them.
06:30What sort of food do they eat?
06:31They feed on sardines, on mackerels.
06:35They seem to be sort of affectionate birds.
06:38Both parents take turns incubating the eggs.
06:41And then while they're not incubating the eggs, they go and get food?
06:46That's right.
06:47While one is incubating, the other one is out fishing.
06:49And then they come back and the other one goes out.
06:51So, guys, you think you're pretty strong, huh?
07:09Yeah.
07:10Okay, I think you can pull this bag out of the jar.
07:12No problem.
07:17Want to try?
07:18Yeah, sure.
07:19Okay, here we go.
07:21Three, one, three, two, three.
07:23The reason why you can't pull the bag out
07:25is because the air pressure is holding it in there really tight.
07:29I got it, I got it.
07:31Is it going to explode?
07:33Oh.
07:37The frigate bird of the Galapagos Islands
07:40scoops fish from the surface of the water
07:42or feeds on what other birds like the booby have caught.
07:47The frigate bird will actually grab the booby in flight,
07:49scaring it into coughing up its lunch.
07:54When the booby's meal starts to fall through the air,
07:57the frigate bird dies after it.
07:59This terrorist behavior of a frigate bird is perhaps why it is also called the man-o-war bird.
08:09This is your reliable adventure reporter.
08:26Sophie, see it all night, checking out the great black widow spider.
08:30Gee, nothing's happening in this desert oasis.
08:33What's a girl to report on?
08:35And all this swept for nothing.
08:38Where's a scorpion or a snake when you need one?
08:41I think you guys spoke too soon.
08:42How does a black widow spider hit you?
08:45Hey, yeah!
08:46It's also called the button spider because of its round body
08:50or the red back spider because of the red hourglass markings on its underside.
08:55Let's shrink and check it out.
08:57Okay.
08:57That's some tangled web it's weaving.
09:07It looks like a trampoline.
09:09The black widow builds its web in low-growing bushes.
09:12It sets a trap for its prey by stretching strands of silk from the main web down to the ground a few inches away.
09:18Each thread is covered in drops of liquid silk.
09:21Lake Blue, I gotta get a closer look.
09:24Guess what the spider's scientific name, Latroductus mactens, means?
09:28Niderefine woolen?
09:30Close.
09:31Murderous biting robber.
09:33Hear that, Nick?
09:35Nicky?
09:35Where'd he go?
09:37Where else but where he shouldn't be?
09:40Hey, guys, come on up.
09:42The V is incredible.
09:44This spider's leg's gone forever.
09:46Wrong, Nicky.
09:47It only has eight of them.
09:48He didn't mean it like that, Mark.
09:50Hey, the fibers on this web are almost invisible.
09:55Just like he's gonna be if he isn't careful.
09:58Hey, Mark, I don't like this.
10:01That black widow looks hungry.
10:04Hey, Nicky, how do you feel about ancient history?
10:06Okay, I guess.
10:07Why?
10:08Because they're gonna become part of it if that black widow bites you.
10:11The black widow's venom is more potent than a rattlesnake's, Nicky.
10:14You better get away from there right now.
10:16Speak for yourself, guys.
10:18There's a scorpion on the rock behind you.
10:20Sure, Nicky.
10:21We're not gonna fall for that old gag.
10:23What a jerk.
10:25Uh, Mark, I'm not one for long goodbyes.
10:28So let's get out of here.
10:31Uh-oh.
10:32The scorpion's coming this way.
10:34Sure enough, the scorpion was headed right for Nicky.
10:37Mark and I decided we'd better do something.
10:40Do something, Mark?
10:42Okay.
10:43Now you do something.
10:45While Mark and I were discussing strategy,
10:47the scorpion got its leg caught on one of the strands of the black widow's web.
10:51Hold on tight, Nicky.
10:53Hold on tight, spider.
10:54Suddenly, the scorpion was hoisted into the air.
11:00It was really going to have to struggle to get loose,
11:03but it was tiring fast.
11:04The spider was staying clear.
11:12A sting from the scorpion is deadly.
11:16Nicky, you better get down while you have the chance.
11:18No way.
11:19I'm perfectly safe where I am.
11:23At last, Nicky was safely on the ground.
11:26Mark and I felt a lot better knowing he was safe.
11:30You look marvelous, Nicky.
11:32I don't believe it.
11:34Meanwhile, the fight continued.
11:36The spider threw loops of sticky silk over the scorpion's tail.
11:43Wow.
11:44Just like a cowboy in a rodeo.
11:46That scorpion's so tied up, he can't even move anymore.
11:50It looks like the spider's teasing the scorpion.
11:53Wrong, Nicky.
11:53The spider's just making sure that the scorpion's tied tightly.
11:57Doesn't want to make any mistakes with that big tail swinging around.
12:01Oh, no.
12:01The moment of truth.
12:02Sophie, don't look.
12:04Wow.
12:05Suddenly, the duel was over.
12:07Wow.
12:09The black widow bit the scorpion with its fangs and paralyzed it.
12:13Then we watched.
12:15Well, I watched.
12:17As the spider dragged the scorpion away to eat it.
12:22Okay, come on.
12:23Let's go, guys.
12:24Guys.
12:25Guys.
12:26Guys, come on.
12:27It's over.
12:37You should have seen your faces when the black widow bit that scorpion.
12:41Well, you should have seen your faces when the scorpion almost got you.
12:44Well, we'd have to be earthworms to see your face when you were stuck in that hole.
12:49Uh-oh.
12:49What's that?
12:52Got you, Bo.
12:53This is Sophie Mike signing off.
12:55By the way, what's that on your shoulder?
12:57Anyone have anything they want to say?
13:00Good.
13:01Fine.
13:02Then let's just get on with things.
13:04The basilisk lizard of Indonesia doesn't stop running when it gets to water.
13:11It's so light, it can run on water for a distance, equal to about seven football fields,
13:16laid end to end.
13:18But if it slows down or stops, it sinks like a rock.
13:21Which is okay.
13:22Because the basilisk lizard is also an excellent swimmer.
13:24Come on, Freddy.
13:33Give it up.
13:34Not yet.
13:36Freddy, this is absurd.
13:37We'll never find them.
13:39Keep looking.
13:40They've got to be around here somewhere.
13:43Freddy, forget it.
13:44They're lost.
13:45Let's just go back and start the game.
13:47How?
13:47I can't play.
13:49I can't see a thing without my contacts.
13:54Body Break with Hal Johnson and Joanne McLeod.
14:07Children naturally want to move.
14:10And when good habits start early, children are more likely to keep active as they grow older.
14:15Physical activity through games or play can improve a child's heart, lungs, and other muscles.
14:19And depending on the equipment or game, your child can develop strength, flexibility, and skills useful when playing sports.
14:27One of the most challenging aspects of keeping kids fit and healthy is not just finding activities they enjoy,
14:33but finding activities that they like to replay.
14:36So here are a few ways to help keep your child motivated to stay active.
14:41Kids love to mimic mom and dad, so giving them the opportunity to work out with you,
14:46using a piece of fitness equipment, such as a kid's air walker, can help improve their cardio, fitness, and strength.
14:53Kids love to play parachute.
14:55This activity encourages cooperative play while building upper body strength.
15:00Have your child become a karate master while improving their coordination, flexibility, and footwork.
15:07Or improve their cardio, strength, and flexibility using a hippity-hop ball.
15:11Activities designed for play that will help develop strong, healthy bodies.

15:21Until next time, keep fit and have fun.
15:25Body break.
15:26Body break.
15:27Body break.
15:32Hey!
15:33Hey!
15:37Hey!
15:39Hey!
15:39Hey!
15:40Hey!
15:40Hey!
15:40Hey!
15:40Hey!
15:40Hey!
15:41Hey!
15:41Hey!
15:41Hey!
15:41Hey!
15:41Hurry up, Daniel.
15:42You're going to be late.
15:43But I can't go to swim class today.
15:46Last night, my dog Chompers ate my swimsuit.
15:49Last week, it was in the wash.
15:51The week before, it wasn't bought yet.
15:53Now it's your dog Chompers.
15:55No more excuses, Daniel.
15:56Either you're in class today, or you're out for good.
15:59It's your decision.
16:08You could try the blue one.
16:09Phone apart.
16:09Phone apart.
16:10Hey, you know, I couldn't help over here in your conversation.
16:15I thought you loved swimming.
16:16I do.
16:17But not when 20 kids tease me about my fat.
16:21Who needs it?
16:23Well, what other people think isn't important.
16:25What do you think?
16:26That's what matters.
16:27Daniel, we've got to stop meeting like this.
16:32Hey, I know you're in there.
16:34I can see your feet.
16:36That's the oldest trick in the book.
16:39Leave me alone, bone apart.
16:41I'm not going swimming till I lose some weight.
16:44Well, you're not going to lose weight in there.
16:45You know, you're better off in the pool, where you can at least burn off extra calories.
16:49I'm tired of talking to the door.
16:51Come on out, will you?
16:53Oh, all right.
16:54Mark!
16:55Steve!
16:56Mark!
16:57Steve!
16:58Mark!
16:59Steve?
17:00Hey, what is this?
17:01A convention?
17:02One part.
17:03I swim all the time, but I'm still overweight.
17:05Uh-huh.
17:06Hello.
17:07What do we have here?
17:08Hmm.
17:09You know, exercise alone isn't enough.
17:13It has to go along with eating properly.
17:17So how come kids like Mark can eat so much, but be so skinny?
17:28What's so great about being skinny?
17:30Well, a lot of how you look has to do with your genes.
17:33Your genes?
17:34Your body's genes.
17:36Heredity, you know.
17:37They account for why you're tall or short, and why you have brown eyes instead of blue.
17:41They also determine, to some extent, how much fat your body stores.
17:45And these are characteristics you inherit from your parents.
17:48They have a say in everything.
17:50Hey, cheer up, guys.
17:51With a little exercise, you can look and feel great.
17:54Well, it's all up to you.
17:56Come on.
17:57Let's go hit the pool.
17:59Here.
18:12What am I saying?
18:15Jeffrey!
18:19Jeffrey!
18:21Jeffrey!
18:22Jeffrey!
18:23Jeffrey!
18:24Jeffrey!
18:25See, Lucas, you were sure right about that exercise.
18:27I'm feeling better already.
18:29you know swimming does lots of good things for you it firms up flabby muscles it helps
18:45your circulation and breathing it strengthens your heart and gets rid of all that terrible
18:49fat well you don't want to get rid of all your fat you know fat does have its good points too
18:54oh yeah sure it's an important form of insulation for your body it acts as a blanket
18:59between you and the outer world and it's what helps you maintain your body temperature
19:03i guess that's where i have an advantage over you hey bonaparte hey bonaparte watch this
19:17you know fat also cushions the bones and it helps to protect the inner organs i guess that comes in
19:26handy when you hit the water yep but most important fat is your body's unique way of
19:31storing extra energy energy that you can burn off throughout the day
19:34i never thought the fat is having any use give me a hand will you bonaparte

28:39Ching Ching and Chuan Chuan
28:40Which are names of areas in Szechuan
28:43Did they give them matching names for a purpose?
28:46It's just a form of endearment
28:47That they use when they name their pets
28:49I noticed on their hands
28:51They can manipulate things fairly well
28:54Well, you see the panda is a bear
28:57That's adapted to eat bamboo
28:59Now a normal bear has five claws
29:02That are designed for stabbing or ripping
29:04But it's not opposable like our thumb
29:07Now the panda adapted so that the wrist bone
29:09And the thumb is growing
29:10It's got a little pattern in it
29:12So they can grab like that
29:13So that's a special adaptation to eat this bamboo
29:15Pandas are great big eaters
29:17Because they eat bamboo
29:19And bamboo doesn't have very much nutrition
29:21And they don't have very good digestive systems
29:24For eating bamboo, surprisingly enough
29:25They virtually have to eat most of the day
29:27To get enough nutrition from them
29:29That must take a lot of bamboo
29:31And they get about 50 kilos a day
29:34Between the two of them
29:35Now they don't eat it all
29:35Because you can watch them
29:36They're pretty wasteful
29:37All they eat is the inner part
29:39They peel off all the rest of the part
29:41You see they've got enormous big molar teeth
29:44For crushing the bamboo
29:45Because bamboo is very, very hard
29:46So they never eat meat?
29:49Well they will eat it if they find it
29:50Why are they so endangered back in China?
29:53Well the big problem with pandas
29:55Is that they depend entirely on bamboo for survival
29:59Now bamboo is an interesting plant
30:01Every 40 or 60 or 80 years
30:03It goes to flower
30:04Which is very natural
30:06And the flowers of course
30:07Is part of the reproduction
30:08It starts new bamboo growing
30:10But then the big plants die
30:11And it does it all at one time
30:12And so
30:14Then it's five or six or seven years
30:16Before there's more bamboo
30:17For the pandas to eat
30:18Now of course
30:20A hundred years ago
30:20When this happened
30:21The pandas
30:22When the bamboo died in one valley
30:23Would simply move to another area
30:25And eat the bamboo there
30:26A different kind of bamboo
30:27But they can't do that now
30:28Because when they leave
30:29The reserve areas
30:30Where they're in
30:31And very well protected
30:32They come in contact with man
30:33And there's no bamboo there
30:34There's rice paddies
30:35Or there's a hydroelectric dam
30:36Or something
30:37There's less than a thousand
30:38Pandas left in the world
30:39In the entire world
30:41Because of this bamboo die
30:43They've set up rescue stations
30:45And what they do
30:46Is they find the pandas
30:47In the wild
30:47That are near starvation
30:49Or sick or hurt
30:50And they bring them in
30:51And they give them
30:51Expert veterinary care
30:52And they sort of feed them up
30:53And then they can release them
30:54These two
30:55Jingjing the female
30:57She was found nearly dead
30:59From starvation
31:00And Chuan Chuan the male
31:02He was so weak from hunger
31:03That he fell off a cliff
31:04And he had a horrible wound
31:06That fractured his skull
31:07And they found him
31:09Some park people
31:10Brought him in
31:10He was just about dead
31:11But they saved him
31:13And as you can see today
31:15He's a picture of health
31:16Oh yeah
31:17Will they eat fruits or rice?
31:20We give them some apples
31:21We feed them a porridge
31:22Which is made up of wheat
31:23And soy and rice flour
31:24And eggs and milk
31:25Sort of a supplement
31:26They get that twice a day
31:27They love that
31:28Aren't they from the raccoon family?
31:29Because there was some
31:30Indecision about the pandas
31:31There was some controversy about it
31:33But the current thinking
31:34Is that they are just
31:35A highly specialized bear
31:37How much do the pandas weigh?
31:41Well Chuan Chuan
31:41That's the male
31:42Is about 70 kilos
31:44And 150 pounds
31:45And she's about 20 pounds
31:4710 kilos heavier than he is
31:49They go up to about 200 pounds
31:51About 100 kilos maximum
31:53Where are the pandas natural habitat?
31:56Well they're now restricted
31:57To just the Sichuan province
31:59Of China
32:00And it's sort of a mountainous area
32:03When is mating season
32:04For the pandas?
32:05Well they only normally
32:06Mate once a year
32:07These are just a little
32:08Young yet to mate
32:09How long until
32:10A baby panda is born?
32:13Well it's 150 days
32:14Which is a fairly short
32:16Gestation period
32:17And one of the interesting things
32:19Is a 200 pound female panda
32:21Gives birth to a tiny
32:23Naked hairless baby
32:25What are the pandas natural enemies?
32:28Well besides man
32:29Who of course is the number one enemy
32:30Of all animals
32:31When they're adult
32:32They probably don't have any
32:33Young pandas
32:35Leopards sometimes
32:36Might take one
32:36Why do they have such furry coats?
32:39That serves as a protection
32:40Because it's fairly rainy
32:42Where they live
32:43So it's very oily
32:43And water repellent
32:45The reason we think
32:46They're colored black and white
32:47Is because pandas
32:47Don't normally live together
32:48They only come together to mate
32:50It's so that in the dense bamboo
32:52They can see each other very clearly
32:53Somebody said black and white
32:54And loved all over
32:55And that's pandas
32:56Aww
33:23We're going to look at things
33:29That might sink
33:30Or might float
33:31Let's have a try
33:33Try some things here
33:34Come on
33:35Let's see if they sink or float
33:36That's our way
33:37Now the ones that float
33:41We want to put out in here
33:42Let's see if we can just
33:43Try some
33:45That floats
33:46Yeah
33:47Oh, okay
33:55You've got a couple
33:56The knife sank
33:57And the fork floated
33:58Why is it that
34:00Some of them sink
34:02And some of them float
34:03Well, it's related to the density
34:05Of whatever it is
34:06And that's like
34:07The quantity
34:08You know
34:09Quantity
34:10Of matter there
34:12Or mass
34:13As compared with
34:14How much space it occupies
34:16So it has a lot of quantity
34:19To a smaller space
34:20Down it goes
34:22Now how come that one sank
34:25And this one floated
34:27Maybe it's because
34:28The way you put it in
34:29Oh, okay
34:29Oh, yes
34:31All right
34:31But if you do it this way
34:32The air stays in there
34:34And keeps it in
34:35So you've got more volume there
34:38Haven't you
34:39Yep
34:39Than if you did it the other way
34:40There we are
34:41Okay, let's have a look
34:43At the things that floated
34:44Okay, just lift them out
34:45And pick a couple
34:46And lift them out
34:47Now suppose we took
34:52That shell
34:53And crumble it all up
34:54And stuck it together
34:56It would float
34:57No
34:58It may
34:59This is because
35:00It wouldn't be
35:01Because this is spread out
35:02Isn't it
35:02More volume
35:03Decrease the volume
35:04With the same mass
35:06And good chance
35:07It'll sink
35:07I have a couple of rocks
35:09In my pocket
35:10And when I bring them out
35:12Put them on the water
35:14And see what happens
35:15To these rocks
35:16Just try that
35:17Yeah, they float
35:18Yeah
35:18So how
35:20Why would that be now?
35:22What do you think?
35:22It looks like
35:23They have little air pockets
35:24In there
35:25Yeah
35:25So what happens
35:26To the mass
35:27That's right, yes
35:29And that's what
35:30Makes them float
35:31And they actually come
35:32From, you know
35:33A volcano
35:34And pumice
35:35Is the name
35:36Of the rock
35:38Let's break that
35:39Yeah
35:39Into chunks of four
35:40So each of us
35:41Has a chunk of plasticine
35:43Right
35:44And here we are
35:45Thank you
35:45Okay
35:45Now make it into a sphere
35:47First
35:47You know
35:48Into a
35:48Like a ball shape
35:50And see what happens
35:51And see what happens
35:51To squeeze it around
35:53Yeah
35:54To make them all
35:55Okay
35:57Now there we are
35:59Right
35:59Okay
36:01Now put it in
36:02Let's put it in
36:03And see what happens
36:04Down it goes
36:06Yeah
36:07Okay
36:08Now what we want to do
36:09Is flatten it out
36:10So take it
36:11And see if we can
36:12Flatten out
36:13This plasticine
36:14Make sure
36:17That you get
36:17Yeah
36:18The bottom of it
36:18All covered
36:19Alright
36:19And then just make
36:20A little ridge
36:21Around the edge
36:22Now you can see
36:24How those great
36:25Big ocean liners
36:25Can actually
36:26You know
36:27Stay afloat in the water
36:28Because of that
36:29Volume that they take
36:30You know
36:31They say
36:32That when you put
36:32Something in water
36:33You're displacing the water
36:36And there's a force
36:37An upward force
36:39That comes in the water
36:40For anything
36:41That is displaced
36:42Remember how
36:43It sank before
36:44So all we're doing
36:45Is increasing the
36:47Volume
36:48Right
36:48Of it
36:49It's the same mass
36:50As before
36:51Let's see
36:52Which of these boats
36:53Will hold the most
36:55Which of our barges
36:56Here
36:56Okay
36:57Now
36:58Put one in each
36:59Okay
37:00Okay
37:01Another one
37:02Ready
37:04Ready
37:09Another
37:10Oh
37:11See
37:12Oh
37:14Down it goes
37:15Lift it off
37:15Please
37:16Oh
37:19There she sinks
37:22Yeah
37:22Okay
37:23Oh
37:25Now
37:26I'm going to lift it off
37:27If I can here
37:28And just put it over here too
37:30And there we are
37:32So the more it's spread out
37:34The more it will
37:35Yeah
37:36The more water it displaces
37:38The area of water it displaces
37:39And the more it pushes up
37:41And that's how that works
37:43This is how we make
37:45One type of submarine
37:47Put the elastic on here
37:49Now we just have to wind
37:50That elastic band around
37:52The balloon
37:53Until it's there
37:54Good and tight
37:54Then we put the lid on
37:56Like that
37:57There we are
37:59And we've got our submarines
38:00Now take your submarine over
38:01And undo the lid a bit
38:03And just let it fill with water
38:05Then put the lid back on here
38:07Let it fill up
38:09Okay
38:10That's the way submarines do
38:12They have tanks on the side
38:13That take in water
38:14So that it will sink
38:17Now
38:18Take the other end of the hose
38:20And blow gently
38:21Ah
38:24You know that works the same way
38:28As a fish bladder
38:29You know
38:31How?
38:31Well
38:32When the fish wants to rise to the surface
38:34They just fill up
38:35A little bladder inside with air
38:37And that raises it up
38:39Owl TV visits Canine Companions for Independence
38:47In Santa Rosa, California
38:49With Jesse and Christopher
38:50To learn all about dogs
38:51That help the disabled
38:52Become more independent
38:53And what they do is
39:19They train dogs
39:20To help disabled people
39:22With their lives
39:23Oh Yvette
39:24It's our anniversary
39:25And look
39:26Everybody signed it
39:27Yvette
39:28Yvette is a standard poodle
39:30Right now she's three years old
39:32And when I first got her
39:33She knew 87 commands
39:35Like the rest of the dog
39:36Now she knows
39:37107 commands
39:39The backpack is designed
39:43To hold
39:44Whatever types of materials
39:46There is a handle
39:48On the top of the backpack
39:49Which is for pulling
39:51A person would hold on
39:53To the handle
39:54Of the backpack
39:55You give the command
39:56Pull
39:57And the dog
39:59Would start walking
40:00Which would move
40:01The wheelchair faster
40:02And then
40:02Probably the disabled person
40:04Could push
40:05This is my friend
40:10Chris Ledwig
40:11He was the first youngster
40:13To receive a service dog
40:14Chris what do you do
40:16When kids at your school
40:17Want to pet Ivy
40:18When she's
40:20Working
40:21Like she's pulling me
40:23I tell them
40:24That they cannot
40:26Pet her
40:26And when she's
40:28Just sitting around
40:29And they come up
40:30And pet her
40:30I tell them
40:31That they have to ask
40:32Chris somebody told me
40:34That our president
40:35Ronald Reagan
40:36Had written you a letter
40:37Yeah
40:39Would you mind
40:40Reading it to me please
40:41Sure
40:41I be standing
40:42I be sitting
40:53Sit
40:54Good girl
40:55The White House
40:58Washington
40:58November 8th
40:591985
41:00Dear Chris
41:01Mrs. Reagan
41:03And I were delighted
41:04To read about
41:05You and your faithful
41:06Companion Ivy
41:07They say that
41:08A dog is man's
41:09Best friend
41:10And you and Ivy
41:12Are proving it
41:12You two have
41:14Something very very special
41:15Which inspires everyone
41:17I have asked that
41:19Some mentors
41:20Be enclosed
41:21With this letter
41:22And they come
41:23With our very
41:25Best wishes
41:26Please say hello
41:27To your family
41:28For us
41:29And God bless you
41:30Sincerely
41:31Ronald Reagan
41:32Before I got
41:40Even my life
41:41Is really depressing
41:42I mean there were
41:43Times when I just
41:44Wanted to give up
41:44Living
41:45I saw no purpose
41:46In me living
41:47I couldn't go to
41:48Stores on my own
41:49Without my parents
41:50Following me
41:51And if I met
41:52One of my friends
41:52At the store
41:53That would be
41:53Very embarrassing
41:54For me
41:55So I hardly went
41:56To the store
41:57And you know
41:58Especially when you
41:58Become a teenager
41:59You want to do
42:00What other normal
42:01Teenagers would
42:02Want to do
42:02I wanted to do
42:04These things
42:05On my own
42:06That's when I decided
42:08To get a canine
42:08Companion
42:09It really makes me
42:14Feel good
42:15When somebody
42:16Asks me
42:16If I drop something
42:17In the store
42:18Can I help
42:18You pick that up
42:19I say no thank you
42:20And we can handle
42:21This on our own
42:22They watch you
42:24And pick it up
42:25And it's
42:25It's just a really
42:27Good feeling
42:27Inside
42:28Where I can say
42:28No thank you
42:29I can do this
42:29On my own
42:30I can do it
42:31I can do it
42:31I can do it
42:32I can do it
42:32All righty
42:33Yvette
42:34Dogs love to work
42:37They love doing that
42:39More than anything
42:40They love to make
42:41A person happy
42:43They figure that's
42:44How they get
42:45Love and attention
42:46That they would need
42:47And this way
42:49Yvette gets her wish
42:51And it helps
42:52A disabled person
42:54Become more independent
42:55At the same time
42:56When I graduated
43:02From canine companions
43:03I decided
43:04These people
43:05Have changed my life
43:06I cannot just say
43:07Oh well I got my dog
43:08I can't just leave now
43:10You know
43:11I really wanted
43:12To help them
43:13In any way possible
43:14Because I felt
43:15That I would have
43:16To pay them back
43:17You know
43:18Because it was just
43:19Something inside of me
43:20It took long enough
43:22But you know
43:23I finally decided
43:24Okay I know how to do
43:26The public transportation
43:27Now why can't
43:28I take the bus
43:29From school
43:30To work
43:31And you know
43:34Now I work
43:34Every day after school
43:37Five days a week
43:38And sometimes on the weekends
43:39For canine companions
43:40I do paperwork
43:45I get packets ready
43:46To be shown
43:47To other people
43:48And the latest information
43:50Oh this is very strange
43:52Okay
43:53The third command
43:55That we're teaching today
43:56This is a one day a week
43:58Puppy training class
43:59Where the puppies
44:00Learn their basic commands
44:01Okay
44:02Everybody understand
44:04What I'm trying
44:04To get across
44:05About no
44:05You say it
44:07You mean it
44:08You don't get angry
44:09You make sure
44:11That whenever you say no
44:13It stops
44:14Hey sweetie
44:14The dogs
44:15Are placed
44:16In what they call
44:18Puppy raising at home
44:19Which is a place
44:20Where they will be
44:21Placed with an
44:22Able-bodied person
44:23And they would go
44:25Through training
44:25Once a week
44:26And they would learn
44:28The basic commands
44:29Sit down
44:30Stand down
44:30That's for a year
44:32They don't just train
44:35Big dogs
44:37You know tall dogs
44:38They train little dogs
44:39Come down and tell him
44:41No
44:41Don't
44:42Good
44:43See
44:44That was good
44:45Don't get angry
44:46At him
44:46Jesse you want to try
44:49No
44:49There you go
44:50No
44:51Whoa
44:52Is that experience
44:55Family or what
44:56And I won't socialize
44:58With puppies
44:59Trying to get them
45:00Used to the outdoor
45:02Stand
45:02So it's not something
45:03New once they get
45:04The backpack on
45:05And really begin
45:06To work with a
45:07Wheelchair
45:07They won't be
45:09Like what is that thing
45:10That person sitting in
45:11The dogs will already
45:13Know what it is
45:14Bonding is the love
45:20Between a person
45:22And the animal
45:24And Yvette and I
45:27We have been together
45:28For a year now
45:29And our bond
45:31Is like a mother
45:33And his child
45:34I mean she does not
45:36Want to leave my side
45:37If I leave the house
45:38For one second
45:39She panics
45:40She'll wait
45:41Right by the door
45:42And then when I come
45:44Out and she'll say
45:44Oh it's time to play
45:46You know
45:46She's so excited
45:47That I didn't leave her
45:48She's just like
45:49A little kid
45:50Good girl Yvette
45:52Yes you're a pretty girl
45:53You're such a pretty girl
45:56Yvette has really
46:01Changed my life
46:02She's given me
46:03That sense that
46:03I'm not a little kid
46:05Anymore
46:06She gives me the courage
46:08A few hugs
46:22Give me a hug
46:22Give me a hug
46:23Hi Yvette
46:25When a spiny anteater
46:37Needs to clean its spines
46:38It takes its long hind claw
46:41And grooms itself
46:42So if a predator comes by
46:44The spiny anteater
46:45Quickly stops grooming
46:46And burrows straight down
46:48Like a sinking ship
46:49Until all that can be seen
46:51Are the spines
46:51And it's a well-protected back
46:53Here we are Michael
47:11Wash your hands
47:12Before you handle the food
47:13Do you know what this soap is made of?
47:17No
47:17Well it's made of
47:18Well it's made from
47:18The lye which they leach from the ashes
47:21Hardwood ashes
47:22That were put in a barrel
47:23Water poured over it
47:25And what was leached out
47:27Sucked out
47:28Was lye
47:30Leaching is sucking out
47:32As in blood suckers
47:34And then you take out the lye
47:37Strong alkaline
47:38You mix it up with melted fat
47:40And the two together
47:42They saponify
47:43Other soap is made just the same way
47:45Yeah
47:45That's where it gets the name
47:46Soap from
47:47Soaponify
47:47Soaponify
47:49We learned all about
47:50The soap making process
47:51From Ruth Keen
47:52She also showed us
47:53How bread was baked
47:54In the 1800s
47:55In the bakery
47:56You've got a really lovely
47:57Clean hands
47:57Aren't you?
47:58Mm-hmm
47:58This kitchen that you're in now
48:01This is the bake
48:02Actually the bakery
48:03And this is where all the baking
48:06And most of the cooking
48:07Was done
48:07And it dates back
48:10To about 1817
48:11And it's the kind of oven
48:13The old witch had
48:14In Hansel and Gretel
48:14Do you know that story?
48:15Yes
48:16Well that's the kind of oven it is
48:18That we light the fire in the oven
48:20That heats the bricks
48:22And then when the bread's ready to go in
48:24You remove all the fire
48:25And it's the heat that's held in the bricks
48:28That does all the baking
48:29And it does get quite warm
48:30Now don't you see
48:31Now how you shape your bread
48:33Is usually how it comes out
48:34So if I wanted a really nice smooth one
48:37That's what we'd have to keep shaping it
48:39But you can roll it
48:41And you have to remember there
48:43That this is going to double its size
48:45So this one will be kind of quite a big thing
48:48Oh God
48:49I'm still not sure what I'm going to make
48:51Yeah
48:51What are you making Tom?
48:53I'm making an octopus
48:54An octopus
48:55Wow
48:55Mm
48:57Is that how you make it?
48:59Oh yeah
49:00I'm going to make that
49:01Yeah
49:02Oh watch out
49:04This looks like a new moon
49:06Can you cut some raisins please
49:08And two toothpicks
49:09Two toothpicks
49:11Two toothpicks around the front
49:12Oh they're really boggly eyes
49:15Those aren't they?
49:16That's true
49:17Rob can you guess what mine is?
49:22Turtle
49:22Turtle
49:23Hey that's good
49:25That's good
49:25That looks a very interesting thing
49:27You're doing over there
49:28What are you making?
49:29I'm not sure
49:30Yeah
49:31I didn't give her the name yet
49:33I think
49:33I think they just developed
49:35That's what makes monsters I think
49:37Well you just don't know what they are
49:38I hope you like raisins Rob
49:40You should put a lot of raisins
49:41I'm just going to graze it
49:43Because if you don't graze the pan
49:44They stick
49:45Where do they have to rise?
49:47They're just sitting on the table
49:48Right here
49:49Because it's very warm in here
49:50You don't want to let it rise too much
49:52If you let it rise too much
49:53It gets very yeasty
49:55What will happen to the yeast
49:56When we put in the oven
49:58And when you get in there
49:58You get it into a hot enough oven
50:00It will kill the yeast
50:01And then it will go on cooking
50:03Now who wants bread?
50:04I do
50:05Me please
50:06This is good bread
50:09You like that?
50:10Yeah
50:10Good
50:11But if you'd like
50:12Take Robin's loaf of bread
50:13And bring it across
50:14We take Robin's loaf of bread
50:16And we'll put it in the bake kettle
50:19Swing your hands over the top
50:21Watch out!
50:23There we are
50:24Now we're going to put the lid on
50:28Sure
50:29Perfect
50:31Now would you like to shovel
50:32Some of these hot coals
50:33And put them on the top?
50:34Very good
50:35Very good
50:35Maybe we can just take this one
50:38Can't we?
50:38The cabbage leaf is just put on
50:41Just so that it doesn't sit on
50:43The floor of the oven
50:44Where the ash is
50:45Because if you didn't have
50:47Something to put your bread on
50:49It's going to pick up
50:51A few of the ashes
50:51Would you like to push it to the back?
50:53That's like in the old end
50:54Right
50:55Now the fire is all out
50:57So we're
50:58Just the next person
51:00Thank you
51:01We're going to turn this one around
51:02Just give a little push in
51:04We're going to put this
51:06Right
51:07Now this just tucks underneath
51:09It goes up the chimney
51:11Which is in front
51:12And there it is
51:14Now that's going to stay in there
51:16For about half an hour
51:18Alright
51:19Here we go
51:20We have to be careful
51:23Because we don't want to
51:24Empty the hot poles
51:25Wait
51:25Look at that in here
51:27Now would you like me
51:29To lift it out for you?
51:31Okay
51:31And there it is
51:33There's your baby
51:34Baby monster
51:37Congratulations
51:38Okay Tom
