Osgood thats Prince William and his wife kate on friday visiting the tying ares nest a buddhist monastery high in the mountains of the tiny asian nation of bhutan. Far from being the forbid den kingdom of legend, our Barry Petersen now takes us to a land very much engaged in one pursuit above all, the pursuit of happiness. Its been called the forbid den kingdom, but it could be shangrila. Hidden away for ken trees amid the soaring majestry of the himalayas, surrounded by industrial giants, bhutan has always gone its own way. The economy is still based on agriculture and it has constitution that mandates 60 of the land must be forest, the actual total is 72 . No overdevelopment here. Welcome to bhutan, ladies and gentlemen. So, coming off the plane you breathe in some of the freshest air on the planet. As you drift into a past that is always present, youll encounter Buddhist Monks and landscapes strewn with prayer flags. By royal decree even New Buildings must be decorated with traditional carved wood and mythical creatures. Theres Something Else mandated by royal decree, happiness. Thats right, in the 1970s, bhutan instead of an emphasis on Gross National product, embraced an official policy of Gross National happiness. So, when we met american and oxford educated prince dasho jigyel, brother the king, how does the monarchy defines it. Being able to find the right balance between economic well being and emotional well being. Family, friends, environment that you are surrounded by, the cultures and traditions that you share, the values that you hold. Rush hour w,ary americans can marvel that in the largest city thimphu, population 100,000, a traffic jam is about a dozen cars. Bhutan once had a stap light. It was right here. The only stop light in the whole country but decided it was too modern so they took it out. Also decided they didnt want the icons of americas global reach, fast food restaurants, so in bhutan there are no mcdonalds, no burger king not even starbucks. But change is coming. Hitech invasion crossing bhutans lofty peaks. And this invasion of modern times was invited in. Television with american reruns and bollywood soap operas from india came in 1999. Followed by the internet. And Computer Games that fascinate this 14yearold. What do you like better . Computer games or archery . Computer games. Because i have passion for it. Have you tried archery . Thats worrisome for a kingdom whose National Sport is archery. Schoolteacher sonam dorgis father taught him archery at age ten. Now, today, do children want to do archery or do they want to play on the internet . They dont like to play this one. Does that mean that in bhutan archery might go away . Maybe. We are so worried about that . So as more of the outside world comes in to bhutan how does that affect your country . Your culture, the things that you cherub. It is both a plus and a minus with the globalization and us opening up our doors. But its how we manage it, how we balance it. And we cant really swim against the tide. The traditional and the modern met this past thursday with the bhutanese royals opened up their doors to the british royals william and kate. She dressed in a kiraa blouse and skirt combination that is bhutans age old style for women. For men traditional wear is called a gho. As i discovered its complicated belted robe and putting it on is a twoperson job. Its a gho. But to go to bhutan, not that easy. It limits international tourists, there were 57,000 last year, just slightly more people than visit disneyworld in one day. Of the lucky few who make it here, most head for this monetary high up a mountain. This is the tigers nest, bhutans number one tourist attraction. And when they say the journey is half the fun, thats not the half of it, the journey to get here. It is a trek up 3,000 feet of elevation, first on what you dearly hope are surefooted horses and when it gets steeper, by your own sure feet. And if you are very lucky, you might catch sight of a golden langur monkey having a leafy munch for lunch. Its enough to make anyone happy. What makes you happy . Happiness is a very relative term. But for me having positive energies and being content with myself. How important is making time for your family for happiness do you think . Extremely important. I think i would put it on top of the list. He ought to know, Karma Tshiteem is the former head of hue tans Gross National happiness commission. There are important things for in ones life that contributes to ones happiness which requires the investment of time more than money. To boost happiness, his commission ordered contemplation, two minutes of daily meditation and each school each day. And there are happiness helpful reminders along the roads and on the hillsides. Here, people take happiness seriously. For him its living in a peaceful country. She says it is being where nature and the mountains are preserved. So, bhutan, we still have our culture very intact and it is our daytoday life here in bhutan, so i think thats most special thing. Perhaps that is the one lesson from this small and gentle buddhist country. Happiness is not about hurrying through life or a trip to the mall or the next new car. Happiness, they will tell you here, is being content with what every day life offers you every day. Osgood ahead, just ducky. Incredible blnow comes with protectionan incredible double your money back guarantee. Always discreet is for bladder leaks and its drier than poise. Try it, love it or get double your money back. Always discreet. They sato make a sunscreenle. You can apply to wet skin. A wrinkle cream that works in one week. And a shampoo that washes away the residue hair Care Products can leave behind. But we did it. No wonder dermatologists recommend neutrogena® 2 times more than any other brand. Were always rethinking whats possible in skincare. Thats just how we roll. Neutrogena®. See whats possible. Osgood and now a page from our sunday morning almanac. April 17, 1937, 79 years ago today, the day animation went daffy. For that day saw premiere of Warner Brothers cartoon titled porks duck hunt. The car poon followed porky pig as he attempted to bag a most unusual duck, a duck quite unwilling to follow the rules. Hey, that wasnt in the script dont let that worry you, skipper, im just a darn fool crazy duck. Actually make that daffy duck in his very first film role. His burst but by no means his last. I stand out in the crowd, dont i . Osgood his first he became fullfledged star. He survived many an encounter with that other equally ineffective hunter, elmer fudd. He traded wise cracks aplenty with his supposed rival, bugs bunny. Buck season . Duck season . One thing daffy all his colleagues shared was the talent of the late mel blanc who gave voice to them all. Then he had story board years ago he showed us how he did it. Hes exhausted. Hes looking for water. Water, water. I cant stand this horrible burning throat. Water, water. Osgood mel blanc died in 1989 at the age of 81. However the animated menagerie he spoke for lives on as popular as ever. You got any more that have secret stuff . Starting to wear off. Nothing daffy about that at all. Osgood coming up, the world cup of quidditch. You know, to show the importance of saving for the future. So youre sort of like a Spokes Person . More of a spokes metaphor. Get organized at voya. Com. I acidity was in my diet. Ch i was so focused on making good food choices, i had no idea that it was damaging the enamel of my teeth. I wanted to fix it, i wanted to fix it right away. My dentist recommended pronamel. He said that pronamel can make my teeth stronger, that it was important, that that is something i could do each day to help protect the enamel of my teeth. Pronamel is definitely helping me to lead the life that i want to live. After as their getaway car,t of foua new development e a prius prius owners from all over america have descended on the chase hi to play what appears to be an automotive shell game with authorities. Its total confusion down here. The prius 4 have literally vanished. Theyre just gone. [laughing] i dont think anyone could have predicted this. Toyota. Lets go places. Osgood quidditch, anyone . Racing at top speed in columbia, south carolina. Where a big championship is underway. Not unlike last years contest which our anna werner attended to see an imaginary game come to life. Its been nearly 20 years since the first harry potter book came out. And proceededded to past a spell over fans around the world. Jk rowlings creation became the most popular book series in publishing history with over 450 million sold. And one of the biggest movie franchises in film history. With nearly 8 billion in ticket sales. And now potter mania has spawned another craze, one based on the high flying fantasy game played by harry and his friends called quidditch, which has now jumped from the world of wizards to the playing fields of rock hill, south carolina. Welcome to the u. S. Quidditch world cup eight yes, real world quidditch, complete been players riding brook sticks. Exploded into the College Scene all over the world its amazing. Its even been the subject of a document carry called mudbloods a harry potter reference, of course. They grew up with harry potter. The documentary introduces alex benepe hes one of the founders of quidditch. Listen up. I have been playing since we started the sport in 2005. That was when a classmate at Middlebury College turned to him with an idea. This weekend were going to try to play real life quidditch. We were freshmen. I thought to myself theres no way this is going to work. This is going to be so dumb. Not so dumb after all. Of eleven years later the game is played by thousands of athletes all over the world. Although players are often asked some unusual questions. Alex browne. What is the snitch . Do you wear a cape . How do you fly . Do you really use brooms . Who would have thought this sport would catch on . Well, even before any of the eight blockbuster harry potter movies were made, author jk rowling was ready to line up. I will be right at the front of the queue wanting to see it. Actually thats the one bit. The movie laid out the game with its wizards on broom sticks. It had to be broom sticks, it just had to be. And giant hoops for goals. Earth bound quidditch still has hoops and balls. Sadly, players cant fly. Instead they simply hold a broomstick between their legs. Alex brown and Missy Sponagle admit the broom thing takes some getting used to. What is the point . Why do you have to dribble a basketball. You have to dribble a basketball. Its quidditch. But the question is, youre a man. Uhhuh. And thats a broom. Uhhuh. You know . I think everyone recommends wearing a cup and no one does. Then theres the role of that little golden ball with wings, called the snitch. Catch it and you end the game. But in real life quidditch, snitches snitches are yellow people are. The is there a personality type usually extraverted. A little bit like rodeo clowns . Yeah. Dignified rodeo clowns. Dignified . Note the ball in a sock hanging off each butt. Snatching that snitch sock still ends the game. But getting hold of it can be a real challenge. My specialty is throwing. You enjoy this . Yeah. Its therapeutic. Iep with all these undeniable displays of athleticism, quidditch doesnt get much respect. In the movie the internship quidditch is a game thats played for laughs. There are sports that are socially acceptable. For whatever reason, quidditch isnt socially acceptable yet. But alex and his girlfriend claim since its coed. She can score a goal. Its awesome. Its cool. What does the future hold for the Fastest Growing sport based on a fantasy series filled with wizards and magic wands . With a little help from the quidditch referee of the year, alex scheer, quidditch is going pro. I am working with a group of individuals on starting the first professional quidditch league. Yes, there will be quidditch trading cards. You get a lot of people who resist quidditch. They try to fight it and block it out. You cant fight it. Its coming. Great job. Good game. Osgood next music legend bonnie raitt. Later catching up with actor eric bana. Its sunday morning on cbs, here again is charles osgood. Osgood bonnie raitt had a big hit with thing called love back in 1989. Nearly three decades later the love between raitt and her fans is still very much mutual. Tracy smith visits with the music legend. Get the juicess flowing because they aint flowing yet. At the historic over yum theater in boston last month, a sellout crowd greeted bonnie raitt like an old friend. When you look out and see once again its sold out . Pretty great. Really fantastic. With her trademark fiery hair, bonnie raitt is a rock and roll hall of famer with a guitar that sounds, as she puts it, like bacon smells. Shes a tentime grammy winner. With 20 albums to her name. At 66, bonnie raitt is still rockin and thankful that she still can. All of us get to do this this many decades arent just so aware of how lucky we are. And the other hours of the day arent anywhere near as fun but its worth it. I get a sense that gratitude is very important to you . Thats true. I dont think anybody ever mentioned that before. But i think its probably the closest thing to religion that i have is just being grateful. This is breathtaking. Were lucky to have this beautiful day. Gr
