Galápagos: Plants & Animals | JEOPARDY! - Duration: 2:45.
- [Alex Trebek] The Galapagos: Plants and Animals.
- Galapagos: Plants and Animals, for 200.
- [Alex Trebek] Alright.
- A 2013 study on diving mammals,
like these Galapagos sea lions.
Found that they contain a positively charged myoglobin.
It's a protein that allows them to store this gas.
Which permits them to stay under water longer.
As they hunt for their fish prey.
- [Alex Trebek] William.
- What is oxygen?
- [Alex Trebek] Right.
- Four.
- With eyes that are adapted for it's hunting time
when small fish rise to the surface to feed on plankton.
The swallow tailed gull is the only gull
that can be described by this nine letter adjective.
- [Alex Trebek] Rob.
- What is nocturnal?
- [Alex Trebek] That's the word.
- 600, please.
- Over 60,000 acres of the Galapagos islands have been
set aside for beneficial crops like
this grass of the genus Saccharum.
This primitive, but very effective press,
is helping to extract the juices.
Go Jimmy, go Jimmy...
(audience laughs)
- [Alex Trebek] Nancy.
- What is sugarcane?
- [Alex Trebek] Yup.
- Galapagos: Plants and Animals for 800.
(electronic sound)
- [Alex Trebek] Answer there the Daily Double.
(audience applause)
And you're in the lead.
- 1,200.
- [Alex Trebek] 12 for an even 6,000.
Here am I, with the clue.
- "Darwin's finches writ large", is how Carl Safina
describes this soaring bird.
The wave type here in the Galapagos is
the only truly tropical type and it has evolved
distinct markings that help provide its name.
- What's a gull?
- [Alex Trebek] No, what is the albatross?
You're close.
Alright, let's take a look at the last clue, shall we?
- Portulaca, which is this type of plant,
named for it's water storing tissues.
Will turn a bright yellow in the rainy season.
The land iguanas that feast on this plant
will eagerly approach visitors.
If they happen to be wearing yellow.
- [Alex Trebek] Rob.
- What is moss?
- [Alex Trebek] No, William or Nancy?
(signal beeps)
- Those are succulents. Succulents. Alright.
- Galapagos sea lions are thigmotactic.
Which means they thrive on bodily contact.
So if they become solitary, they tend to deteriorate.
The ideal social group then, is this one.
With an exotic name, it could be as many
as 30 females headed by one single bull.

S. Korea, U.S. settle contentious issues regarding bilateral FTA deal - Duration: 2:08.
Following up on Semin's report, we now take a closer look at how South Korea and the United
States have revised their free trade deal.
Kim Ji-yeon has this report.
South Korea's Minister of Trade Kim Hyun-chong said he had settled a number of contentious
issues with his U.S. counterpart Robert Lighthizer as the two countries revised their bilateral
free trade agreement, including those concerning the Investor State Dispute Settlement provisions
or ISDS, anti-dumping measures and textile origin standards.
Kim said the two countries included details of preventing entities from filing petitions
in multiple jurisdictions under the ISDS provisions.
They agreed the burden of proof lies with the investor... if it's the plaintiff in ISDS
systems... and lawsuits that are filed without substantial evidence are to be promptly dismissed.
Under the revised deal, they agreed to notify in advance if a country decides to impose
tariffs... and to reveal how the rates were calculated and determined.
The two countries also agreed to enforce strict rules when it comes to determining the place
of origin of textile goods... called the "Yarn Forward Rule"... which stipulates clothing
must originate from the country of its making, its thread and yarn that forms the apparel...
in order to be recognized as being made in Korea or in the U.S.
On provisions related to the auto industry, Kim said the two countries agreed the U.S.
will continue to impose 25-percent tariffs on imported light trucks and pickup trucks
until 2041... and they will not be scrapped in 2021 as initially scheduled.
Considering the imposition of safety regulations...
South Korea is to double the number of U.S. car imports -- up to 50-thousand vehicles
-- that it'll acknowledge as passing safety regulations equivalent to that of Korea's.
Regarding car emission standards, they agreed to recognize the global 'eco-innovation credit'...
which refers to any technology new to the auto market that contributes to significant
CO2 savings.

Multicultural families experience Korean Chuseok food tradition - Duration: 2:02.
Moving on to some other news now... this week in South Korea, families and relatives have
been getting together to celebrate Korea's biggest holiday, Chuseok.
Families from other ethnic backgrounds have also gathered and joined in to learn and experience
Korean Chuseok food culture as well.
Yoon Jung-min brings us some of their stories.
Korea's biggest national holiday Chuseok is the time when families gather around to celebrate
the harvest season with special food and traditions.
Foreign nationals who settled down in Korea also share food with their families during
the holiday.
The Red Cross and a multi-cultural family support center in Goyang, Gyeonggi-do Province
provided a program for multi-cultural families to help them better understand Chuseok food
tradition and make the signature rice cake songpyeon.
Some 40 participants from Russia, Japan, Vietnam and many other countries gathered to learn
how to make songpyeon.
In Korea, songpyeon rice cakes serve to bring families closer together.
"Koreans share these songpyeon, half-moon shaped rice cakes, with their families and
neighbors under the full moon at Chuseok."
The participants make pieces of songpyeon stuffed with sesame seeds, bean powder and
other ingredients.
Their songpyeons differ in size, color and shape but their expectation for the holiday
does not differ greatly.
"This is really nice.
You know, this is my first time making it, but it's really interesting.
The dough is a little bit sticky, but the feeling is really great and I hope it's really
yummy."
"Making songpyeon is more difficult than I thought.
It's sticky and it's not easy to shape it into a half-moon."
With an increasing number of multi-cultural families in Korea, the organizations say they
will keep supporting those families to help them adapt to the Korean culture ranging from
food, tradition and many other sectors.
