- Meet Wolfe Bowart, a physical theatre artist who is staging his newest production Cloud Soup at the Scoundrel & Scamp Theatre in Tucson. The play combines magic, music and live special effects in a wordless, whimsical story for all ages.
- What is AVATAR, and how might it revolutionize the concept of telling truth from lies? Mark talks with Jay Nunamaker, who is part of a team at the University of Arizona that is developing a technology that scans as many as 500 variables in body language and speech in hopes of building a better lie detector.
- And, Tony Paniagua talks with two enthusiastic members of the Pima County's Master Gardener Program. The group has been educating community volunteers for 35 years about topics including water conservation, native plant care and pest management.
