[00:00.000 --> 00:01.540]  You don't want to miss our half price sale.
[00:01.540 --> 00:04.740]  Whatever your uh-oh, better get Mako.
[00:04.740 --> 00:06.800]  The Bay Area's major news of the day.
[00:06.800 --> 00:10.080]  Frank Somerville, Julie Hangher, the 10 o'clock news
[00:10.080 --> 00:11.800]  on KTVU Channel 2.
[00:11.800 --> 00:14.560]  Complete Bay Area news coverage.
[00:18.520 --> 00:21.240]  Occupy Oakland and Oscar Grant supporters
[00:21.240 --> 00:23.320]  joined forces today to make a point,
[00:23.320 --> 00:26.120]  but will the alliance be lifelong or grow
[00:26.120 --> 00:29.800]  uneasy as 2012 unfolds?
[00:29.800 --> 00:32.320]  Cell phone video shows the ferocious flames
[00:32.320 --> 00:35.720]  that consumed a house just minutes into the new year.
[00:35.720 --> 00:38.760]  And a new year means new laws will tell you which ones
[00:38.760 --> 00:41.200]  could impact you the most.
[00:41.200 --> 00:45.200]  Complete Bay Area news coverage starts right now.
[00:45.200 --> 00:49.280]  This is KTVU Channel 2 News at 5.
[00:49.280 --> 00:50.280]  Good evening, I'm Ken Pritchett.
[00:50.280 --> 00:51.520]  And tonight for Ken Wayne.
[00:51.520 --> 00:53.040]  And I'm Heather Holmes.
[00:53.040 --> 00:55.680]  A rally today to mark the third anniversary
[00:55.680 --> 00:58.880]  of the death of a man shot and killed by bar police.
[00:58.880 --> 01:02.160]  Today's demonstration honored passenger Oscar Grant,
[01:02.160 --> 01:05.360]  but it also was a rallying point for the waning Occupy
[01:05.360 --> 01:06.240]  movement.
[01:06.240 --> 01:08.240]  KTVU's Patti Lee was with marchers today
[01:08.240 --> 01:10.960]  who tell her they have plans for the new year.
[01:10.960 --> 01:12.040]  Patti?
[01:12.040 --> 01:14.960]  Well, more than 120 protesters marched for an hour and a half
[01:14.960 --> 01:16.880]  to get here from Frank Ogawa Plaza.
[01:16.880 --> 01:19.800]  Now, the vigil is ending just about now behind that kiosk.
[01:19.800 --> 01:23.200]  You can see folks are starting to leave and to get onto buses.
[01:23.200 --> 01:24.800]  Now, today's events were organized
[01:24.800 --> 01:29.960]  by both the Oscar Grant committee and by Occupy Oakland.
[01:29.960 --> 01:32.160]  I'm fisting the air if you don't care.
[01:32.160 --> 01:33.680]  Say bye to the people.
[01:33.680 --> 01:35.840]  Three years after he was shot and killed
[01:35.840 --> 01:38.400]  by a BART police officer, Oscar Grant
[01:38.400 --> 01:42.160]  has become a martyr of sorts for the Occupy Oakland movement.
[01:42.160 --> 01:45.240]  Where the Occupy and Oscar Grant issues overlap
[01:45.240 --> 01:47.040]  is around police brutality.
[01:47.040 --> 01:48.640]  We don't do it for Oscar.
[01:48.640 --> 01:51.160]  Say, I am Oscar Grant.
[01:51.160 --> 01:53.400]  More than 120 protesters gathered
[01:53.400 --> 01:56.520]  to remember Grant at Frank Ogawa Plaza this afternoon
[01:56.520 --> 01:59.240]  before marching to the Fruitvale BART station,
[01:59.240 --> 02:02.200]  where Grant, unarmed, hands behind his back,
[02:02.200 --> 02:04.640]  was killed New Year's Day 2009.
[02:04.640 --> 02:07.240]  It's real emotional for me because.
[02:07.240 --> 02:09.600]  Earlier, Oscar Grant's family gathered there
[02:09.600 --> 02:11.920]  for a private memorial service.
[02:11.920 --> 02:15.600]  It's a day for us to remember Oscar
[02:15.600 --> 02:17.720]  and to not forget what happened to him.
[02:17.720 --> 02:19.640]  Grant's mother says Oscar's legacy
[02:19.640 --> 02:23.040]  lies in ending police brutality and holding officers
[02:23.040 --> 02:24.840]  accountable for their actions.
[02:24.840 --> 02:28.360]  As for the legacy of Occupy Oakland, undetermined.
[02:28.360 --> 02:31.480]  I feel that there's a lot of different people rallying
[02:31.480 --> 02:33.960]  for different things in the Occupy movement.
[02:33.960 --> 02:37.360]  Grant's family says the groups may not be entirely in sync,
[02:37.360 --> 02:39.800]  but it is grateful for Occupy support.
[02:39.800 --> 02:44.880]  I want to keep Oscar's name and memory alive as long as we can.
[02:44.880 --> 02:47.360]  But others in the Grant camp are worried
[02:47.360 --> 02:49.960]  that if the Occupy Oakland movement embraces
[02:49.960 --> 02:52.000]  civil disobedience in the year ahead,
[02:52.000 --> 02:54.480]  it may dilute the message they share.
[02:54.480 --> 02:57.400]  They're not supposed to be doing things that's upsetting
[02:57.400 --> 03:00.720]  and disrupting everyone else.
[03:00.720 --> 03:03.480]  Oscar isn't about that.
[03:03.480 --> 03:04.840]  And if they want to use his name,
[03:04.840 --> 03:08.600]  then they need to be doing the correct thing.
[03:08.600 --> 03:11.520]  Occupy Oakland organizers say they do have some New Year's
[03:11.520 --> 03:16.080]  resolutions, one of which is to occupy a building this month
[03:16.080 --> 03:19.760]  so they can stop being harassed at their outdoor encampment.
[03:19.760 --> 03:23.640]  Reporting live in Oakland, Patti Lee, KTVU, Channel 2 News.
[03:23.640 --> 03:25.720]  Violence marred New Year's in Oakland
[03:25.720 --> 03:29.360]  as police responded to gunfire on 14th and Franklin Streets
[03:29.360 --> 03:30.240]  this morning.
[03:30.240 --> 03:32.000]  When police arrived around 2 AM, they
[03:32.000 --> 03:35.000]  found a woman with a gunshot wound to her hand.
[03:35.000 --> 03:36.680]  As they investigated the shooting,
[03:36.680 --> 03:38.560]  a car drove up with another woman
[03:38.560 --> 03:40.320]  who had been shot in her leg.
[03:40.320 --> 03:42.400]  Police say the shootings are unrelated.
[03:42.400 --> 03:44.360]  Both women are being treated at the hospital.
[03:44.360 --> 03:47.560]  No arrests have been made in either shooting.
[03:47.560 --> 03:50.360]  Oakland police announced a $5,000 reward
[03:50.360 --> 03:52.640]  this afternoon for information on the shooter who
[03:52.640 --> 03:55.920]  fatally wounded a five-year-old boy on International Boulevard
[03:55.920 --> 03:57.080]  Friday night.
[03:57.080 --> 04:00.880]  Gabriel Martinez Jr. was outside his family's taco truck
[04:00.880 --> 04:03.680]  on 54th Avenue when a man ordered some food
[04:03.680 --> 04:07.000]  and then turned around and sprayed the truck with gunfire.
[04:07.000 --> 04:09.400]  The suspect then drove away in a silver Pontiac
[04:09.400 --> 04:11.160]  with a female passenger.
[04:11.160 --> 04:13.000]  Oakland's homicide total last year
[04:13.000 --> 04:15.840]  rose for the first time in four years.
[04:15.840 --> 04:20.840]  The city's official count for 2011 is 103 homicides.
[04:20.840 --> 04:23.200]  That's 11 more than in 2010.
[04:23.200 --> 04:26.480]  Five-year-old Gabriel Martinez was the third young child
[04:26.480 --> 04:29.600]  killed by gunfire in Oakland in 2011.
[04:29.600 --> 04:33.600]  Three-year-old Carlos Nava and 23-year-old Hiram Lawrence
[04:33.600 --> 04:36.120]  Jr. were also shot and killed.
[04:36.120 --> 04:39.240]  Petaluma police have identified an alleged drunk driver
[04:39.240 --> 04:41.660]  suspected of hitting a 15-year-old boy who
[04:41.660 --> 04:43.080]  was at a crosswalk.
[04:43.080 --> 04:46.640]  Investigators say 20-year-old Wesley Pickford of Novato
[04:46.640 --> 04:49.760]  failed to stop at East Washington and Edith Street,
[04:49.760 --> 04:51.520]  striking the teen in the crosswalk
[04:51.520 --> 04:53.420]  there around 1230 AM.
[04:53.420 --> 04:55.600]  The boy is listed in stable condition,
[04:55.600 --> 04:57.280]  but with serious injuries.
[04:57.280 --> 04:59.720]  Pickford was booked into the Sonoma County jail
[04:59.720 --> 05:02.000]  on $30,000 bail.
[05:02.000 --> 05:05.920]  The CHP is reporting two fatality, fatal DUI-related
[05:05.920 --> 05:08.660]  crashes in the Bay Area so far this New Year's holiday
[05:08.660 --> 05:09.480]  weekend.
[05:09.480 --> 05:11.720]  Now, that's actually down from four fatalities
[05:11.720 --> 05:13.520]  for the same time last year.
[05:13.520 --> 05:18.800]  The number of DUI arrests is up with a total of 161 arrests
[05:18.800 --> 05:21.080]  compared to 124 last year.
[05:21.080 --> 05:23.020]  Those numbers, though, are expected to rise
[05:23.020 --> 05:26.840]  when the CHP releases the totals from its maximum enforcement
[05:26.840 --> 05:30.040]  effort, which ends Monday at midnight.
[05:30.040 --> 05:32.120]  Now to the South Bay, where a family there
[05:32.120 --> 05:34.960]  is starting the new year in temporary housing.
[05:34.960 --> 05:38.160]  After a three-alarm fire gutted the historic San Jose home
[05:38.160 --> 05:41.520]  they lived in and less than an hour into the new year.
[05:41.520 --> 05:43.720]  Katie's Maureen Naylor obtained cell phone video
[05:43.720 --> 05:46.680]  showing the challenge firefighters faced.
[05:46.680 --> 05:47.200]  It's gone.
[05:47.200 --> 05:48.760]  Everything's gone, my whole life.
[05:48.760 --> 05:50.520]  Elizabeth Suarez never thought she'd
[05:50.520 --> 05:54.000]  start 2012 barefoot outside the historic downtown San Jose
[05:54.000 --> 05:56.280]  house she's rented for the past five years.
[05:56.280 --> 05:59.400]  No shoes, no nothing.
[05:59.400 --> 06:00.520]  I mean, I got nothing.
[06:00.520 --> 06:03.000]  I don't have my purse, ID, nothing.
[06:03.000 --> 06:04.240]  Everything's just gone.
[06:04.240 --> 06:06.880]  Everything, she says, but this basket of laundry.
[06:06.880 --> 06:08.360]  Firefighters are still investigating
[06:08.360 --> 06:10.480]  what caused the fire at this Victorian home.
[06:10.480 --> 06:12.760]  Just 50 minutes into the new year,
[06:12.760 --> 06:14.440]  a neighbor shot this cell phone video
[06:14.440 --> 06:17.960]  showing flames consuming the attic and first floor.
[06:17.960 --> 06:20.920]  Suarez says she, her two teenage children, and a friend
[06:20.920 --> 06:23.960]  were sleeping inside when the smoke detector went off.
[06:23.960 --> 06:27.040]  It started in my son's room because my friend woke us up
[06:27.040 --> 06:28.640]  and said he smelled smoke.
[06:28.640 --> 06:30.660]  And that's when the smoke came in.
[06:30.660 --> 06:32.160]  And then we opened the door and flames
[06:32.160 --> 06:33.680]  were just all over the place.
[06:33.680 --> 06:35.720]  And I just immediately got my kids up and said, get up,
[06:35.720 --> 06:36.720]  get up, those are fire.
[06:36.720 --> 06:39.560]  They were fighting a difficult battle from the start.
[06:39.560 --> 06:41.280]  Difficult, Fire Captain Rob Brown
[06:41.280 --> 06:44.640]  says, because these historic homes often lack fire breaks.
[06:44.640 --> 06:46.440]  When we get fires like this, we can end up
[06:46.440 --> 06:48.760]  with fire in the basement and the attic and the fire
[06:48.760 --> 06:50.120]  floor within minutes.
[06:50.120 --> 06:52.200]  Everyone escaped safely, but the home
[06:52.200 --> 06:54.640]  on North Fifth Street, which is part of San Jose's Hensley
[06:54.640 --> 06:57.200]  Historic District, was severely damaged.
[06:57.200 --> 06:57.680]  It's sad.
[06:57.680 --> 07:00.880]  I mean, basically, we lose these by fire.
[07:00.880 --> 07:02.840]  That's about the, you know, unfortunately they're
[07:02.840 --> 07:05.160]  protected, but you can't protect them from fire.
[07:05.160 --> 07:07.440]  Firefighters estimate the damage of at least a half
[07:07.440 --> 07:08.560]  a million dollars.
[07:08.560 --> 07:10.400]  The family says the Red Cross is putting them up
[07:10.400 --> 07:12.640]  for a few days until they can figure out where
[07:12.640 --> 07:13.920]  they're going to live next.
[07:13.920 --> 07:17.860]  In San Jose, Maureen Naylor, KTVU Channel 2 News.
[07:17.860 --> 07:20.680]  It is a new year, and with that comes several new laws
[07:20.680 --> 07:21.780]  for California.
[07:21.780 --> 07:24.680]  Whether it's how you buckle up your kids in the car
[07:24.680 --> 07:28.720]  or what types of treatment medical insurance must cover,
[07:28.720 --> 07:31.200]  there is a good chance one of these new laws
[07:31.200 --> 07:32.080]  will apply to you.
[07:32.080 --> 07:35.620]  Now, KTVU's Claudine Wong will detail some of those new laws
[07:35.620 --> 07:38.200]  coming up later in the newscast.
[07:38.200 --> 07:40.200]  The squirrel monkey, named Banana Sam,
[07:40.200 --> 07:43.760]  is back in his enclosure at the San Francisco Zoo this evening.
[07:43.760 --> 07:46.840]  The 17-year-old squirrel monkey was found yesterday afternoon
[07:46.840 --> 07:50.400]  by a man in Stern Grove Park, about a mile from the zoo.
[07:50.400 --> 07:53.880]  The unidentified man coaxed the tiny monkey back
[07:53.880 --> 07:55.880]  into his backpack, and then that man
[07:55.880 --> 07:58.160]  called police, who took him to the zoo.
[07:58.160 --> 08:00.780]  Officials there say the monkey was scared and hungry,
[08:00.780 --> 08:02.280]  but otherwise healthy.
[08:02.280 --> 08:05.880]  Banana Sam was either taken or escaped from his enclosure
[08:05.880 --> 08:08.520]  on Thursday night after someone cut the fencing.
[08:08.520 --> 08:11.560]  The man who found the monkey was questioned and is not
[08:11.560 --> 08:13.000]  considered a suspect.
[08:13.000 --> 08:14.920]  Well, it may be January 1st, but it
[08:14.920 --> 08:17.960]  didn't feel much like winter today across the Bay Area.
[08:17.960 --> 08:21.000]  Chrissy Field in San Francisco was just one of the many places
[08:21.000 --> 08:24.040]  where people went for a walk, run, or played fetch
[08:24.040 --> 08:26.400]  with their dog, wearing only short sleeves, maybe
[08:26.400 --> 08:27.560]  even a light jacket.
[08:27.560 --> 08:30.560]  Temperatures across the Bay Area were as much as 10 degrees
[08:30.560 --> 08:33.800]  above average today, and we've seen less than half
[08:33.800 --> 08:36.400]  of the normal rainfall for the season.
[08:36.400 --> 08:38.680]  With more on our very mild and dry weather,
[08:38.680 --> 08:40.440]  we go to our meteorologist, Mark Tamayo.
[08:40.440 --> 08:41.240]  Mark?
[08:41.240 --> 08:43.600]  Heather, in fact, we're taking a live look outside right now,
[08:43.600 --> 08:45.760]  looking out toward the beautiful San Francisco Bay.
[08:45.760 --> 08:47.360]  The high clouds have been increasing
[08:47.360 --> 08:49.940]  over the past few hours, and those clouds will be factors.
[08:49.940 --> 08:52.440]  We do head into it tomorrow, but most of the Bay Area
[08:52.440 --> 08:57.040]  warmed up into the 60s this afternoon, mid and upper 60s.
[08:57.040 --> 08:58.760]  As the high clouds spill into the region,
[08:58.760 --> 09:02.200]  temperatures will be cooling off back down to the 30s and 40s.
[09:02.200 --> 09:04.400]  As you can pick out on LivestormTracker2
[09:04.400 --> 09:06.560]  on the satellite, we can show you this
[09:06.560 --> 09:08.640]  as we do take a look at our next source.
[09:08.640 --> 09:10.880]  There you can pick out on LivestormTracker2.
[09:10.880 --> 09:12.400]  Just a few high clouds approaching.
[09:12.400 --> 09:14.760]  Cape Mendocino and the bulk of the moisture out here
[09:14.760 --> 09:15.680]  in the Pacific.
[09:15.680 --> 09:18.500]  There is a very weak weather system approaching our coastline
[09:18.500 --> 09:21.120]  that will have an effect on our forecast for tomorrow.
[09:21.120 --> 09:23.800]  With that, we do bring in just a slight chance
[09:23.800 --> 09:26.160]  of some drizzle up in the North Bay or a few sprinkles,
[09:26.160 --> 09:28.320]  but we should be cooling things off
[09:28.320 --> 09:29.880]  as we do head into your Monday.
[09:29.880 --> 09:31.840]  As far as this rain-free weather,
[09:31.840 --> 09:33.920]  I'll let you know if we have any rain clouds coming up
[09:33.920 --> 09:35.880]  in that five-day forecast in your full update
[09:35.880 --> 09:37.000]  in just a few minutes.
[09:37.000 --> 09:37.960]  All right, thanks, Mark.
[09:37.960 --> 09:40.960]  Well, today and tomorrow are spare-the-air days,
[09:40.960 --> 09:43.600]  which means, of course, wood burning is banned.
[09:43.600 --> 09:45.440]  The Bay Area Air Quality District
[09:45.440 --> 09:48.440]  says the lack of wind is creating unhealthy air, which
[09:48.440 --> 09:51.320]  can be problematic for those with breathing problems.
[09:51.320 --> 09:53.240]  Now, tomorrow's spare-the-air day
[09:53.240 --> 09:57.680]  will be the 12th this season compared to four last season.
[09:57.680 --> 09:59.760]  Tens of thousands of people rang in New Year
[09:59.760 --> 10:02.520]  along San Francisco's Embarcadero this morning.
[10:07.400 --> 10:09.760]  The chilly temperatures didn't keep people away
[10:09.760 --> 10:13.080]  from the open-air party, with many dressed in warm jackets
[10:13.080 --> 10:15.880]  and others with top hats and tuxedos.
[10:15.880 --> 10:18.560]  Many revelers found it hard to move through the crowd
[10:18.560 --> 10:20.800]  as the clock approached midnight.
[10:20.800 --> 10:24.240]  Taxis and public transit ran into the early morning hours,
[10:24.240 --> 10:31.800]  getting people back home.
[10:31.800 --> 10:34.920]  Hundreds of thousands crowded into New York's Times Square
[10:34.920 --> 10:36.200]  to watch the ball drop.
[10:36.200 --> 10:40.680]  The party left plenty of work for 149 sanitation workers
[10:40.680 --> 10:42.720]  who converged on the area this morning,
[10:42.720 --> 10:46.000]  picking up 50 tons of party hats, empty containers,
[10:46.000 --> 10:51.320]  and confetti with 22 trucks, 24 sweepers, and 37 backpack
[10:51.320 --> 10:52.120]  blowers.
[10:52.120 --> 10:53.880]  Well, the stroke of midnight rang in more
[10:53.880 --> 10:56.320]  than the New Year for one San Lorenzo family.
[10:56.320 --> 10:59.360]  It also brought them their first baby girl.
[10:59.360 --> 11:02.520]  May we introduce you now to little Sofia Trigueros.
[11:02.520 --> 11:04.600]  According to those at Eden Medical Center in Castro
[11:04.600 --> 11:09.560]  Valley, Sofia is the first baby born in the Bay Area in 2012.
[11:09.560 --> 11:11.680]  Amelia Trigueros says Sofia wasn't actually
[11:11.680 --> 11:15.160]  due until January 3, but around 530 last night,
[11:15.160 --> 11:16.240]  she went into labor.
[11:16.240 --> 11:18.840]  And the family had their fingers crossed that baby
[11:18.840 --> 11:20.800]  would wait until midnight.
[11:20.800 --> 11:22.800]  She gets to count down to her birthday every year.
[11:22.800 --> 11:25.800]  She's going to think all the fireworks are for her.
[11:25.800 --> 11:27.160]  And they are for her, right?
[11:27.160 --> 11:29.760]  Sofia weighed in at 7 pounds, 5 ounces,
[11:29.760 --> 11:32.080]  and was a little more than 19 inches long.
[11:32.080 --> 11:34.600]  And when Sofia goes home, she will be greeted
[11:34.600 --> 11:37.080]  by four older brothers.
[11:37.080 --> 11:38.720]  Police in Washington state are looking
[11:38.720 --> 11:40.680]  for a gunman who shot and killed a park
[11:40.680 --> 11:43.680]  ranger on Mount Rainier, also ahead.
[11:43.680 --> 11:46.920]  It will be a restless night for some people living in the LA
[11:46.920 --> 11:50.400]  area as the community braces for more arsons.
[11:50.400 --> 11:53.360]  Also, the final push is now underway in Iowa,
[11:53.360 --> 11:57.240]  as GOP hopefuls stuff for votes ahead of Tuesday's caucuses.
[11:57.240 --> 12:00.280]  And new figures are out on just how much money was lost
[12:00.280 --> 12:29.280]  in the Bay Area housing market.
[12:29.280 --> 12:30.960]  Start the new year in style.
[12:30.960 --> 12:32.520]  This offer ends January 3rd.
[12:32.520 --> 12:35.760]  So hurry to your California Ford dealer.

[13:05.760 --> 13:07.360]  Dad, why are you getting that?
[13:07.360 --> 13:08.600]  That's my cereal.
[13:08.600 --> 13:10.720]  Is there a prize in there?
[13:10.720 --> 13:12.360]  There's a prize, all right.
[13:12.360 --> 13:13.720]  Is it a robot?
[13:13.720 --> 13:14.640]  No.
[13:14.640 --> 13:16.360]  Is it a jet plane?
[13:16.360 --> 13:17.040]  Nope.
[13:17.040 --> 13:18.880]  Is it a dinosaur?
[13:18.880 --> 13:21.000]  Inside every box of heart-healthy Cheerios
[13:21.000 --> 13:23.000]  are those great tasting little O's made
[13:23.000 --> 13:24.520]  from carefully selected oats that
[13:24.520 --> 13:25.800]  can help lower cholesterol.
[13:25.800 --> 13:26.720]  Stickers?
[13:26.720 --> 13:27.560]  Uh-uh.
[13:27.560 --> 13:30.440]  A superhero?
[13:30.440 --> 13:31.520]  Kind of.
[13:31.520 --> 13:35.600]  And we think that's the best prize of all.
[13:35.600 --> 13:37.280]  I'm home.
[13:37.280 --> 13:40.280]  Sometimes your best singing is done not behind the microphone.
[13:40.280 --> 13:42.400]  Home is whenever I'm with you.
[13:42.400 --> 13:43.920]  But behind the wheel.
[13:43.920 --> 13:45.760]  I'm home.
[13:45.760 --> 13:48.440]  Let me come home.
[13:48.440 --> 13:52.160]  Home is whenever I'm with you.
[13:52.160 --> 13:55.840]  Wonder what you'll sound like in a Hyundai.
[13:55.840 --> 14:00.000]  Now you can lease the 2012 Santa Fe for just $2.69 a month
[14:00.000 --> 14:02.320]  during Hyundai holidays, but only
[14:02.320 --> 14:03.880]  at your Bay Area Hyundai dealers.
[14:07.520 --> 14:10.320]  A manhunt is underway at this hour on Washington's Mount
[14:10.320 --> 14:14.400]  Rainier after a gunman shot and killed a park ranger.
[14:14.400 --> 14:16.120]  The gunman is believed to be somewhere
[14:16.120 --> 14:18.480]  in the expansive national park.
[14:18.480 --> 14:20.760]  Authorities say around 1030 this morning,
[14:20.760 --> 14:24.720]  a ranger tried to pull over the suspect for a suspect,
[14:24.720 --> 14:26.280]  rather for a routine traffic stop.
[14:26.280 --> 14:29.800]  But when the driver didn't stop, 34-year-old park ranger
[14:29.800 --> 14:33.240]  Margaret Anderson set up her vehicle as a roadblock.
[14:33.240 --> 14:35.360]  When the suspect arrived at the roadblock,
[14:35.360 --> 14:38.760]  he got out of his car and shot and killed Anderson.
[14:38.760 --> 14:41.120]  Police and firefighters in the Los Angeles area
[14:41.120 --> 14:45.280]  are on high alert tonight as they deal with 39 arsons.
[14:45.280 --> 14:48.760]  This car fire in West Hollywood was one of seven new fires
[14:48.760 --> 14:50.560]  that broke out just overnight.
[14:50.560 --> 14:54.320]  The car fires have often spread to nearby apartment complexes.
[14:54.320 --> 14:57.800]  And heavily damaged a home once owned by Jim Morrison.
[14:57.800 --> 15:00.560]  Since the arson outbreak began late Thursday,
[15:00.560 --> 15:02.680]  authorities have been working around the clock
[15:02.680 --> 15:05.080]  to try to find the firebug.
[15:05.080 --> 15:07.640]  The acts we've seen over the last 72 hours here
[15:07.640 --> 15:09.740]  in these communities have kept these public safety
[15:09.740 --> 15:12.520]  professionals up at night and working tirelessly.
[15:12.520 --> 15:14.880]  Since December 30, the Los Angeles Fire Department
[15:14.880 --> 15:17.960]  alone has responded to over 3,300 calls
[15:17.960 --> 15:20.280]  for service in the city.
[15:20.280 --> 15:22.880]  A white male in his mid-30s with a ponytail
[15:22.880 --> 15:25.840]  was spotted by a parking garage security camera.
[15:25.840 --> 15:28.960]  But it is unclear tonight if he is the sole arsonist
[15:28.960 --> 15:32.560]  or if some of those fires are being set now by copycats.
[15:32.560 --> 15:35.160]  California faces new budget woes this year
[15:35.160 --> 15:37.840]  as $1 billion in automatic cuts are
[15:37.840 --> 15:41.640]  triggered by a shortfall in last year's tax revenue.
[15:41.640 --> 15:43.960]  Most of those cuts will come out of higher education,
[15:43.960 --> 15:48.000]  but already hit hard by a 16% drop in overall state spending
[15:48.000 --> 15:49.600]  since the start of the recession.
[15:49.600 --> 15:51.760]  Governor Brown is proposing a ballot measure
[15:51.760 --> 15:54.320]  that would raise $7 billion a year
[15:54.320 --> 15:57.440]  by raising state income taxes on the wealthy
[15:57.440 --> 15:59.920]  and increasing the sales tax on everyone else.
[15:59.920 --> 16:04.640]  If nothing is done, California will face another $13 billion
[16:04.640 --> 16:07.000]  in cuts over the next year and a half.
[16:07.000 --> 16:11.240]  Exxon has won a large award in a dispute with Venezuela.
[16:11.240 --> 16:14.560]  Back in 2007, President Hugo Chavez's government
[16:14.560 --> 16:18.560]  nationalized a reserve that contained an Exxon oil project.
[16:18.560 --> 16:20.400]  Well, today the oil company announced
[16:20.400 --> 16:22.360]  the International Chamber of Commerce
[16:22.360 --> 16:25.840]  awarded it nearly $908 million.
[16:25.840 --> 16:28.560]  The commerce body found Venezuela's state oil company
[16:28.560 --> 16:30.700]  was liable for that takeover.
[16:30.700 --> 16:36.280]  Venezuela has not commented yet on the award to Exxon.
[16:36.280 --> 16:38.840]  Republicans hoping to win the Iowa caucus
[16:38.840 --> 16:41.680]  took to the airwaves today, making their final case
[16:41.680 --> 16:43.200]  before Tuesday's vote.
[16:43.200 --> 16:45.160]  Also today, a newspaper endorsement
[16:45.160 --> 16:48.600]  supported Mitt Romney's narrow lead in the polls.
[16:48.600 --> 16:50.640]  But the final results are up for grabs,
[16:50.640 --> 16:53.440]  with many Iowa voters still undecided.
[16:53.440 --> 16:57.060]  Reporter Barbara Hall has the latest on the campaign trail.
[16:57.060 --> 16:58.860]  A political fight to the finish line
[16:58.860 --> 17:02.720]  before the first real voting of the 2012 presidential race.
[17:02.720 --> 17:04.320]  The latest Des Moines Register poll
[17:04.320 --> 17:07.720]  shows Mitt Romney and Ron Paul neck and neck.
[17:07.720 --> 17:10.400]  Paul says his campaign is picking up momentum.
[17:10.400 --> 17:12.240]  We're doing very, very well.
[17:12.240 --> 17:15.440]  And people should just be a little bit patient.
[17:15.440 --> 17:17.520]  On Tuesday, we're going to find out a lot more
[17:17.520 --> 17:19.040]  about the future of this election.
[17:19.040 --> 17:22.680]  Rival Mitt Romney is narrowly leading among caucus goers.
[17:22.680 --> 17:24.760]  On Sunday, he picked up another endorsement
[17:24.760 --> 17:27.800]  from Iowa newspaper, the Quad City Times.
[17:27.800 --> 17:30.600]  Former Senator Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania
[17:30.600 --> 17:32.720]  rounded out the top three in the poll.
[17:32.720 --> 17:35.240]  My surge is going to come on January 3rd.
[17:35.240 --> 17:38.040]  After the people of Iowa do what they do, which is actually
[17:38.040 --> 17:41.280]  analyze the candidates, figure out where their positions are,
[17:41.280 --> 17:43.480]  find out who's the right leader, who's
[17:43.480 --> 17:45.560]  got what it takes to defeat Barack Obama
[17:45.560 --> 17:47.240]  and to lead this country.
[17:47.240 --> 17:49.280]  Iowa's governor seems to agree.
[17:49.280 --> 17:52.920]  My goal is, as governor, unite the Republican Party,
[17:52.920 --> 17:56.920]  attract the independents, and defeat Obama.
[17:56.920 --> 17:57.680]  We launched him.
[17:57.680 --> 17:58.680]  We want to sink him.
[17:58.680 --> 18:00.400]  Also on the campaign trail Sunday,
[18:00.400 --> 18:02.740]  Newt Gingrich, Rick Perry, and Michelle Bachmann
[18:02.740 --> 18:05.040]  stumping in Iowa, while Jon Huntsman
[18:05.040 --> 18:07.280]  focuses on New Hampshire, which votes
[18:07.280 --> 18:09.980]  a week after the Iowa caucus.
[18:09.980 --> 18:12.480]  I'm Barbara Hull reporting.
[18:12.480 --> 18:14.200]  And as the presidential race heats up,
[18:14.200 --> 18:16.560]  you could be asked to share your opinion.
[18:16.560 --> 18:19.640]  The nonprofit, nonpartisan Pew Research Center
[18:19.640 --> 18:22.080]  is one of the largest pollsters in the nation.
[18:22.080 --> 18:24.600]  And while many people say they don't have time for a poll,
[18:24.600 --> 18:28.160]  some question why they've never been asked for their opinion.
[18:28.160 --> 18:33.160]  There are 220 or 30 million adults in the United States.
[18:33.160 --> 18:36.240]  Our typical survey will interview 1,500.
[18:36.240 --> 18:38.280]  Even over the course of a year, the chance
[18:38.280 --> 18:41.280]  that we would call any given individual
[18:41.280 --> 18:44.920]  is only about one in 150,000.
[18:44.920 --> 18:47.800]  Callers are never told who is actually conducting the poll
[18:47.800 --> 18:49.780]  to prevent the survey from being influenced
[18:49.780 --> 18:53.160]  by partisan feelings of either the poll takers or those
[18:53.160 --> 18:54.680]  who answer the poll.
[18:54.680 --> 18:56.480]  Authorities at Kennedy Airport in New York
[18:56.480 --> 18:58.400]  arrested a college student from China
[18:58.400 --> 19:01.960]  who they say tried to bring a stun gun on board a plane.
[19:01.960 --> 19:04.320]  The TSA says a screener noticed something
[19:04.320 --> 19:06.880]  looking like a flashlight in the woman's luggage.
[19:06.880 --> 19:08.680]  Upon further inspection, the screener
[19:08.680 --> 19:10.560]  saw that it was a stun gun.
[19:10.560 --> 19:11.880]  The college student told reporters
[19:11.880 --> 19:13.880]  she pleaded not guilty and believes
[19:13.880 --> 19:17.160]  her case will result in a fine.
[19:17.160 --> 19:20.100]  A member of the US military is in custody tonight,
[19:20.100 --> 19:21.960]  facing charges of attempting to bring
[19:21.960 --> 19:24.040]  explosives onto an airplane.
[19:24.040 --> 19:27.120]  The FBI says 30-year-old Trey Scott Atwater
[19:27.120 --> 19:30.200]  was stopped Saturday at a security checkpoint
[19:30.200 --> 19:32.480]  at Midland Airport in Texas.
[19:32.480 --> 19:34.320]  Searchers say they found explosives
[19:34.320 --> 19:36.600]  in his bag in what are being called
[19:36.600 --> 19:38.920]  military-grade wrappings.
[19:38.920 --> 19:41.620]  Atwater is stationed at Fort Bragg in North Carolina
[19:41.620 --> 19:43.760]  and was in Midland visiting family.
[19:43.760 --> 19:46.000]  His arraignment is set for Tuesday.
[19:46.000 --> 19:48.080]  Air travel fatalities worldwide
[19:48.080 --> 19:50.040]  fell dramatically last year.
[19:50.040 --> 19:52.360]  There were 401 deaths on commercial
[19:52.360 --> 19:54.640]  and charter aircraft in 2011,
[19:54.640 --> 19:58.080]  compared to 726 in 2010.
[19:58.080 --> 19:59.880]  Now, excluding acts of terrorism,
[19:59.880 --> 20:02.340]  the number of air travel-related fatalities
[20:02.340 --> 20:05.000]  has fallen steadily since 1990,
[20:05.000 --> 20:07.760]  with airline experts crediting better pilot training
[20:07.760 --> 20:09.280]  and safer airplanes.
[20:09.280 --> 20:11.480]  British aviation research company Ascent
[20:11.480 --> 20:14.160]  says your odds of dying on a commercial flight
[20:14.160 --> 20:16.480]  are one in seven million.
[20:16.480 --> 20:18.960]  New figures out today show how hard the recession
[20:18.960 --> 20:21.320]  has hit the Bay Area housing market.
[20:21.320 --> 20:24.040]  In an analysis for the San Jose Mercury News,
[20:24.040 --> 20:26.440]  Data Quick reports that local homes lost
[20:26.440 --> 20:28.740]  more than a third of a trillion dollars
[20:28.740 --> 20:30.480]  during the past four years.
[20:30.480 --> 20:34.640]  Homes in Oakland lost an average of $350,000,
[20:34.640 --> 20:38.280]  and Concord, the average loss was $289,000,
[20:38.280 --> 20:43.280]  with $267,000 in San Jose and $205,000 in San Francisco.
[20:44.360 --> 20:48.960]  Home equity loans have dropped about 90% since 2007.
[20:48.960 --> 20:52.960]  NASA says two identical probes are now circling the moon.
[20:52.960 --> 20:56.300]  The two spacecraft are part of a mission called GRAIL,
[20:56.300 --> 21:00.400]  short for Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory.
[21:00.400 --> 21:03.640]  They were designed to map the moon's gravity field
[21:03.640 --> 21:07.200]  in an effort to understand what is below the moon's surface.
[21:07.200 --> 21:09.640]  NASA engineers plan to maneuver the two orbiters
[21:09.640 --> 21:13.960]  closer to the moon and start the mapping in March.
[21:13.960 --> 21:16.400]  Some Occupy protesters are facing charges.
[21:16.400 --> 21:17.880]  Hear what they are accused of
[21:17.880 --> 21:20.920]  and why some fellow activists are distancing themselves.
[21:20.920 --> 21:22.960]  Also ahead, hear what's behind
[21:22.960 --> 21:25.640]  new missile testing today in Iran.
[21:25.640 --> 21:27.480]  Also coming up, we will have details
[21:27.480 --> 21:29.360]  on a new program for veterans
[21:29.360 --> 21:31.200]  that makes the transition from combat
[21:31.200 --> 21:33.240]  to the classroom a little easier.
[21:33.240 --> 21:35.600]  You and 19 of your friends can win tickets
[21:35.600 --> 21:37.200]  to the Alcatraz Premier Party,

[22:40.240 --> 22:42.240]  This two hour window is a pretty cool thing.
[22:42.240 --> 22:45.120]  I'm proud to work for a company like this.
[22:45.120 --> 22:48.000]  Introducing two hour appointment windows from Comcast,

[23:06.240 --> 23:10.240]  Every year, Sleep Train sells thousands of new mattresses
[23:10.240 --> 23:13.240]  from Simmons, Sealy, Tempur-Pedic and Cirta.
[23:13.240 --> 23:17.240]  And every year, Sleep Train clears out hundreds of last year's models
[23:17.240 --> 23:19.240]  during the huge year-end clearance sale.
[23:19.240 --> 23:22.240]  Save on brand-new mattresses from last year,

[24:05.240 --> 24:07.240]  See your Lexus dealer.
[24:08.240 --> 24:12.240]  In news of the world tonight, in Iran today, state television aired video
[24:12.240 --> 24:16.240]  of an Iranian Navy ship test-firing a surface-to-air missile
[24:16.240 --> 24:19.240]  during a drill near the Strait of Hormuz.
[24:19.240 --> 24:23.240]  A leading Iranian lawmaker said the drill is practiced for closing the waterway
[24:23.240 --> 24:26.240]  if the West blocks Iran's oil sales.
[24:26.240 --> 24:31.240]  Also today, Iran's nuclear agency claimed workers have made and tested
[24:31.240 --> 24:33.240]  the first nuclear fuel rod.
[24:33.240 --> 24:37.240]  Now, this news comes a day after Iran called for a new round of talks
[24:37.240 --> 24:39.240]  about its nuclear program.
[24:39.240 --> 24:42.240]  In Syria today, Arab League monitors remained in the country
[24:42.240 --> 24:46.240]  despite calls for them to leave from inside the Arab League itself.
[24:46.240 --> 24:50.240]  The head of an advisory panel said the monitors are instead giving
[24:50.240 --> 24:55.240]  Syrian President Assad a cover to allow his forces to continue killing civilians.
[24:55.240 --> 24:59.240]  The monitors are supposed to be ensuring Syria complies with terms
[24:59.240 --> 25:03.240]  of the Arab League's plan to end the nine-month-old crackdown on dissent
[25:03.240 --> 25:05.240]  that has not yet happened.
[25:05.240 --> 25:09.240]  And in England today, nine-year-old Prince Philip was seen by the public
[25:09.240 --> 25:12.240]  for the first time since his emergency heart surgery.
[25:12.240 --> 25:16.240]  Doctors implanted a coronary stent after the prince went to a hospital
[25:16.240 --> 25:18.240]  with chest pains.
[25:18.240 --> 25:21.240]  The prince's husband walked about 400 yards today to attend
[25:21.240 --> 25:23.240]  New Year's Day services.
[25:23.240 --> 25:26.240]  His wife, Queen Elizabeth, rode that distance in a limousine.
[25:26.240 --> 25:29.240]  Men and women returning from wars overseas are coming home
[25:29.240 --> 25:32.240]  to a weak economy and high unemployment.
[25:32.240 --> 25:35.240]  Those who choose to go to college, however, will have some help.
[25:35.240 --> 25:39.240]  Reporter Anita Vogel talked to one veteran injured in Iraq
[25:39.240 --> 25:41.240]  who was getting help to go to college.
[25:41.240 --> 25:44.240]  The biggest thing was the economy took a dump on me
[25:44.240 --> 25:46.240]  right when I was getting out of the service.
[25:46.240 --> 25:49.240]  But California's Veterans Affairs Department is simplifying
[25:49.240 --> 25:53.240]  the transition from combat to the classroom.
[25:53.240 --> 25:57.240]  After signing up, vets get an email list of colleges in their zip code
[25:57.240 --> 26:00.240]  along with financial aid information.
[26:00.240 --> 26:03.240]  Much of their application is even filled out for them using data
[26:03.240 --> 26:07.240]  from their military forms, making it easier for vets like Ariza
[26:07.240 --> 26:09.240]  to get the ball rolling.
[26:09.240 --> 26:11.240]  I was a little lost at first and afraid to do it.
[26:11.240 --> 26:15.240]  I wanted to go to school, but just did not know how to even
[26:15.240 --> 26:18.240]  make the first step of even applying for a school.
[26:18.240 --> 26:21.240]  That's changing, and California hopes it will become a model
[26:21.240 --> 26:26.240]  for other states to help vets with their first steps back into civilian life.
[26:26.240 --> 26:29.240]  Our veterans have made a sacrifice for our country,
[26:29.240 --> 26:33.240]  and they certainly deserve a helping hand when they come home.
[26:33.240 --> 26:37.240]  This is a joint venture between the California Department of Veterans Affairs
[26:37.240 --> 26:39.240]  and the California Community Colleges.
[26:39.240 --> 26:43.240]  Each year, 30,000 men and women return home from the service
[26:43.240 --> 26:46.240]  to civilian life in California.
[26:46.240 --> 26:49.240]  In Los Angeles, Anita Vogel, Fox News.
[26:49.240 --> 26:53.240]  Four men in North Carolina are facing arson charges for burning
[26:53.240 --> 26:56.240]  two American flags near an Occupy camp.
[26:56.240 --> 26:59.240]  It happened yesterday at the Occupy Charlotte camp.
[26:59.240 --> 27:03.240]  One of the men who was arrested says he burned the flags to inspire people
[27:03.240 --> 27:07.240]  to take more direct action in response to the world's problems.
[27:07.240 --> 27:10.240]  The flag burning upset other Occupiers.
[27:10.240 --> 27:14.240]  One of them decided to leave the Occupy camp after hearing the news.
[27:14.240 --> 27:18.240]  I do formally apologize to anyone who is offended by my actions.
[27:18.240 --> 27:21.240]  However, I do not apologize for the burning of the flag,
[27:21.240 --> 27:24.240]  as it is my constitutional right to do so.
[27:24.240 --> 27:27.240]  These people are not members of the Occupy movement, they're campers.
[27:27.240 --> 27:33.240]  I'm an Occupier because I'm occupying ethics, morality, principles, ideas,
[27:33.240 --> 27:36.240]  ways to move our country forward.
[27:36.240 --> 27:39.240]  As a group, Occupy Charlotte also made it clear
[27:39.240 --> 27:42.240]  that it does not support the burning of the flag.
[27:42.240 --> 27:45.240]  In Southern California, members of the Occupy movement are getting ready
[27:45.240 --> 27:49.240]  to march along the route for the Tournament of Roses Parade.
[27:49.240 --> 27:53.240]  In addition to a huge U.S. Constitution, they will have a massive octopus
[27:53.240 --> 27:58.240]  with tentacles meant to symbolize Wall Street's influence on American society.
[27:58.240 --> 28:02.240]  Pasadena city officials gave the okay for the Occupiers to march
[28:02.240 --> 28:05.240]  after the Rose Parade itself has finished.
[28:05.240 --> 28:08.240]  Well, it was a violent night in the South Bay.
[28:08.240 --> 28:12.240]  It led up to the stabbings and shootings that kept San Jose police officers
[28:12.240 --> 28:14.240]  very busy last night.
[28:14.240 --> 28:17.240]  And with the new year comes new laws on the books,
[28:17.240 --> 28:19.240]  some of which are controversial.
[28:19.240 --> 28:23.240]  Also, what one lawmaker wants to do to prevent violent hazings,
[28:23.240 --> 28:40.240]  like the one that recently claimed the life of a Florida college student.
[28:53.240 --> 29:12.240]  Okay, you guys wanted a space for entertaining your friends,
[29:12.240 --> 29:15.240]  so open your eyes and check out your new living room.
[29:15.240 --> 29:17.240]  Honey, the TV's over there.
[29:17.240 --> 29:20.240]  Yeah, we got you the new AT&T U-verse wireless receiver,
[29:20.240 --> 29:22.240]  so you can put your TV pretty much anywhere you want.
[29:22.240 --> 29:23.240]  Anywhere?
[29:23.240 --> 29:24.240]  We can put it over there?
[29:24.240 --> 29:27.240]  We can put it on the patio if we're watching the game with the guys.
[29:27.240 --> 29:28.240]  Or in the kitchen?
[29:28.240 --> 29:29.240]  These curtains are new.
[29:29.240 --> 29:30.240]  I can't believe you moved the TV.
[29:30.240 --> 29:31.240]  It's like a whole new living room.
[29:31.240 --> 29:32.240]  It actually is a whole new living room.
[29:32.240 --> 29:35.240]  The new wireless receiver, only from AT&T.
[29:35.240 --> 29:38.240]  Now get U-verse with DVR at the lowest price ever.
[29:38.240 --> 29:55.240]  AT&T.
[30:08.240 --> 30:09.240]  Go to airportappliance.com.
[30:09.240 --> 30:10.240]  It's about building cars in America.
[30:10.240 --> 30:11.240]  It's all about jobs.
[30:11.240 --> 30:12.240]  It's all about respect.
[30:12.240 --> 30:13.240]  Security.
[30:13.240 --> 30:14.240]  The American dream.
[30:14.240 --> 30:15.240]  Good jobs in tough times.
[30:15.240 --> 30:16.240]  A chance to move up and do better.
[30:16.240 --> 30:17.240]  Excellent healthcare.
[30:17.240 --> 30:18.240]  Beautiful benefits.
[30:18.240 --> 30:19.240]  What they used to call the American way.
[30:19.240 --> 30:20.240]  It still works here.
[30:20.240 --> 30:21.240]  Not a single layoff of a U.S. manufacturing worker.
[30:21.240 --> 30:22.240]  Not one.
[30:22.240 --> 30:23.240]  Not one.
[30:23.240 --> 30:24.240]  Doing things the right way.
[30:24.240 --> 30:25.240]  Quality.
[30:25.240 --> 30:26.240]  Building cars that Americans want.
[30:26.240 --> 30:27.240]  Right here in America.
[30:27.240 --> 30:52.800]  Monday is an All-American success story.
[30:52.800 --> 30:57.440]  It was a violent start to the New Year in San Jose with as many as ten shooting and
[30:57.440 --> 31:00.880]  stabbing incidents from last night to early this morning.
[31:00.880 --> 31:05.320]  KTVU's Deborah Villalon joins us live from San Jose with what happened.
[31:05.320 --> 31:10.720]  Well, we're downtown along the Guadalupe River where a man was walking about 10 o'clock
[31:10.720 --> 31:13.000]  last night when he was stabbed.
[31:13.000 --> 31:15.160]  And that was just the beginning.
[31:15.160 --> 31:20.920]  Minutes later, another 911 call came in for shots fired in a residential neighborhood.
[31:20.920 --> 31:22.240]  Officers found two wounded.
[31:22.240 --> 31:23.960]  One man and one juvenile.
[31:23.960 --> 31:28.040]  The two victims were at a New Year's Eve gathering on Ridge Glen Way when that violence
[31:28.040 --> 31:29.040]  broke out.
[31:29.040 --> 31:34.040]  A neighbor tells us as his household watched TV, they were startled by that gunfire.
[31:34.040 --> 31:39.120]  We were watching here and then we heard the gunshot with my son.
[31:39.120 --> 31:44.480]  And then so I say, well, somebody's shooting, you know.
[31:44.480 --> 31:46.960]  And just minutes into the New Year, more trouble.
[31:46.960 --> 31:52.840]  This time on Skull Drive in San Jose, on this street, a fight involving several people.
[31:52.840 --> 31:57.440]  And when it was over, six of them, mostly teenagers, went to the hospital with stab
[31:57.440 --> 31:58.440]  wounds.
[31:58.440 --> 32:02.480]  San Jose police haven't gotten back to us on what the brawl was all about.
[32:02.480 --> 32:07.040]  Neighbors who heard the screaming and sirens say this is generally a quiet area.
[32:07.040 --> 32:12.880]  I've been here more than 15 years, and it's not like that.
[32:12.880 --> 32:13.880]  It's not like that.
[32:13.880 --> 32:20.840]  It's people that come and decide to make parties and it happens.
[32:20.840 --> 32:25.360]  And back now closer to downtown, the man stabbed near the river managed to walk to this street
[32:25.360 --> 32:28.280]  before bystanders called him an ambulance.
[32:28.280 --> 32:34.140]  Now only one victim we're aware of at the shooting has injuries that may be life threatening.
[32:34.140 --> 32:39.640]  And as the night went on, there were three other gunfire incidents into cars, houses
[32:39.640 --> 32:45.720]  and groups of people, but no one hit and several scattered stabbings as well.
[32:45.720 --> 32:51.000]  All of this, police say, is unfortunate but not unusual for New Year's Eve.
[32:51.000 --> 32:55.360]  We're live in San Jose, Debra Villalon, KTVU, Channel 2 News.
[32:55.360 --> 32:59.440]  Walnut Creek police have arrested two men in connection with a nightclub assault.
[32:59.440 --> 33:03.760]  The attack happened early yesterday morning at the Vice Ultra Lounge on a Royal Way and
[33:03.760 --> 33:05.000]  Civic Drive.
[33:05.000 --> 33:07.840]  The victim says he was pistol whipped by a group of people.
[33:07.840 --> 33:10.900]  He suffered a serious but non-life threatening head injury.
[33:10.900 --> 33:15.840]  Now this is the same nightclub where a large fight broke out on November 27th with at least
[33:15.840 --> 33:17.280]  two people injured.
[33:17.280 --> 33:22.480]  New Year's Day always brings new laws and 2012 brings changes that affect not only how
[33:22.480 --> 33:26.960]  you buckle up your kids, but also the medicine you buy and what your health insurance will
[33:26.960 --> 33:27.960]  cover.
[33:27.960 --> 33:32.740]  KTVU's Claudine Wong takes a look at some of the laws going into effect today.
[33:32.740 --> 33:36.560]  In the laundry list of laws going into effect today, most people knew about the one affecting
[33:36.560 --> 33:38.040]  kids in car seats.
[33:38.040 --> 33:42.480]  Instead of 6 years old or 60 pounds, the new law says keep them in until they're 8 or 4
[33:42.480 --> 33:43.480]  foot 9.
[33:43.480 --> 33:47.280]  I didn't know about that one, yep, because I got a 5 year old here.
[33:47.280 --> 33:48.680]  Other laws target teens.
[33:48.680 --> 33:52.200]  They can't hop into a tanning booth or buy certain cough medicines.
[33:52.200 --> 33:56.940]  And schools, in a first for the nation, now have to teach about gay and lesbian contributions
[33:56.940 --> 34:02.000]  in the classroom and have to develop plans to address gay and lesbian bullying in school.
[34:02.000 --> 34:05.440]  Schools and sports also affected with districts required to come up with a plan to address
[34:05.440 --> 34:10.880]  concussions in student athletes, some question whether laws are necessary to make all this
[34:10.880 --> 34:11.880]  happen.
[34:11.880 --> 34:14.920]  I definitely understand that concern, but when you look at each one individually, it's
[34:14.920 --> 34:16.640]  kind of hard to argue against them.
[34:16.640 --> 34:17.960]  Some changes may not affect you.
[34:17.960 --> 34:21.200]  Janelle Hampton isn't worried about a ban on caffeinated beer.
[34:21.200 --> 34:25.040]  I do either beer or caffeine, yeah, so.
[34:25.040 --> 34:28.200]  Well then that's good, it doesn't affect you, you don't have to worry about it.
[34:28.200 --> 34:29.840]  So I think I'll be okay.
[34:29.840 --> 34:32.520]  2012 means gun owners have to change things up.
[34:32.520 --> 34:36.000]  They can no longer carry unloaded weapons in plain sight.
[34:36.000 --> 34:40.360]  Job seekers should remember most potential employers can no longer check your credit.
[34:40.360 --> 34:45.240]  And if you have a child with autism, health insurers are now required to cover treatments.
[34:45.240 --> 34:47.360]  And it's not just state laws bringing change.
[34:47.360 --> 34:52.280]  2012 also means a plastic bag ban in San Jose, a minimum wage hike in San Francisco, and
[34:52.280 --> 34:55.000]  yes, PG&E rates going up too.
[34:55.000 --> 34:57.760]  In Oakland, Claudine Wong, KTVU, Channel 2 News.
[34:57.760 --> 35:02.640]  Other major new state laws include the Dream Act, which allows California public colleges
[35:02.640 --> 35:06.640]  to give private financial aid to illegal immigrants.
[35:06.640 --> 35:11.760]  3,200 large California companies will have to report on whether their supply chains use
[35:11.760 --> 35:12.960]  slave labor.
[35:12.960 --> 35:17.960]  It's hoped a law banning shark fin soup will reduce the slaughter of sharks.
[35:17.960 --> 35:22.600]  And on the local level, outdoor smoking is banned in all public places in Alameda, including
[35:22.600 --> 35:25.960]  sidewalks, outdoor worksites, and work vehicles.
[35:25.960 --> 35:30.360]  California is cracking down on businesses such as home builders paying employees cash
[35:30.360 --> 35:31.600]  under the table.
[35:31.600 --> 35:37.120]  The Chronicle reports this so-called underground economy costs the state $7 billion a year
[35:37.120 --> 35:38.840]  in lost revenues.
[35:38.840 --> 35:44.200]  Labor groups also say these businesses withhold payroll taxes for Social Security, Medicare,
[35:44.200 --> 35:45.720]  and unemployment insurance.
[35:45.720 --> 35:51.200]  California has assembled a task force, which includes the Departments of Industrial Relations,
[35:51.200 --> 35:53.800]  Employment Development, and the Board of Equalization.
[35:53.800 --> 35:57.600]  Unlicensed contractors face fines as well as jail time.
[35:57.600 --> 36:02.240]  A nationwide anti-hazing law could be introduced in Congress this month.
[36:02.240 --> 36:06.480]  Florida A&M University has come under close scrutiny since drum major Robert Champion
[36:06.480 --> 36:09.160]  died during a hazing ritual in November.
[36:09.160 --> 36:14.480]  The proposed law by a Florida congressman would strip financial aid from anyone sanctioned
[36:14.480 --> 36:20.160]  by a university for hazing or witnessing hazing and failing to report it, including
[36:20.160 --> 36:21.160]  the victim.
[36:21.160 --> 36:25.880]  The hazing measure comes as Congress considers anti-bullying legislation to protect school
[36:25.880 --> 36:26.880]  children.
[36:26.880 --> 36:31.000]  The corruption trial of former leaders of the Southern California city of Bell will
[36:31.000 --> 36:32.920]  proceed, at least for now.
[36:32.920 --> 36:38.200]  A state appellate court has dismissed an appeal by six former council members to charges that
[36:38.200 --> 36:42.960]  they padded their six-figure salaries without doing the required work.
[36:42.960 --> 36:47.900]  All six received thousands of dollars a month for work on council boards, which prosecutors
[36:47.900 --> 36:50.080]  say rarely have ever met.
[36:50.080 --> 36:53.640]  The former officials say they will appeal to the state Supreme Court.
[36:53.640 --> 36:58.840]  A San Jose-based solar company has dropped plans to build a solar plant in Michigan.
[36:58.840 --> 37:04.480]  GlobalWatt blames the recession and competition from overseas for the cancellation.
[37:04.480 --> 37:09.600]  Saginaw, Michigan was to see 500 new jobs when plans for the factory were announced
[37:09.600 --> 37:11.600]  back in 2009.
[37:11.600 --> 37:15.860]  Officials there approved millions of dollars in incentives, but the money was never distributed
[37:15.860 --> 37:18.000]  because the jobs never happened.
[37:18.000 --> 37:22.880]  Black birds have fallen dead from the sky in a central Arkansas town for the second
[37:22.880 --> 37:24.880]  New Year's Eve in a row.
[37:24.880 --> 37:29.320]  Police are working with animal control officers to figure out the exact number of birds that
[37:29.320 --> 37:30.320]  were killed.
[37:30.320 --> 37:33.760]  Now, it's not clear if year-end celebrations are again to blame.
[37:33.760 --> 37:38.200]  You may remember last year, fireworks were blamed for the deaths of thousands of birds.
[37:38.200 --> 37:42.840]  Biologists said last year's deaths were caused by the birds being jolted by the fireworks
[37:42.840 --> 37:47.000]  and flying right into homes, cars, telephone poles, and even each other.
[37:47.000 --> 37:49.640]  Well, it has been dry in the Sierra.
[37:49.640 --> 37:54.640]  We'll tell you just how little snow has fallen in the Tahoe area so far this season.
[37:54.640 --> 37:58.120]  And will the dry weather around the Bay Area stick around?
[37:58.120 --> 38:02.200]  Channel 2 Meteorologist Mark Tamayo will be here with a look at the forecast for the first
[38:02.200 --> 38:07.000]  week of 2012.
[38:07.000 --> 38:08.520]  This is a dumb roof.
[38:08.520 --> 38:09.520]  This is a smart roof.
[38:09.520 --> 38:12.040]  And this is a smarter roof.
[38:12.040 --> 38:15.080]  Smarter roofs save you big money on your energy bills.

[39:18.040 --> 39:19.040]  I don't know where he is.
[39:19.040 --> 39:20.040]  Maybe he went outside.
[39:20.040 --> 39:27.280]  I have a dog, and you know if you have a dog, you need to get your carpet cleaned at least
[39:27.280 --> 39:29.080]  twice a year.

[39:40.480 --> 39:41.480]  I'm a real person.
[39:41.480 --> 39:43.840]  I'm not an actress.
[39:43.840 --> 39:47.840]  People you trust, trust Court.
[39:47.840 --> 39:53.200]  This year I decided to spare no expense for our holiday dinner, so I hired renowned chef
[39:53.200 --> 39:54.200]  Gordon Ramsay.
[39:54.200 --> 39:55.200]  Oh, come on.
[39:55.200 --> 39:56.200]  It's disgusting.
[39:56.200 --> 39:57.200]  How new?
[39:57.200 --> 39:58.200]  What are you doing?
[39:58.200 --> 39:59.200]  It's raw.
[39:59.200 --> 40:00.200]  You idiot.
[40:00.200 --> 40:01.200]  Is this your first day?
[40:01.200 --> 40:02.200]  Congratulations.
[40:02.200 --> 40:03.200]  It's your last.
[40:03.200 --> 40:04.200]  Get out of here.
[40:04.200 --> 40:06.560]  At a time when it's easy to go overboard.
[40:06.560 --> 40:07.560]  Happy holidays.
[40:07.560 --> 40:12.800]  Acura invites you to be smarter and over save during the Season of Reason sales event.
[40:12.800 --> 40:18.360]  Take advantage of attractive offers on the 2012 Acura TSX for well qualified customers.
[40:18.360 --> 40:22.920]  Resolutions, well like almost everything else, there is an app for that.
[40:22.920 --> 40:27.800]  To keep your New Year's resolution strong, programmers are offering smartphone applications
[40:27.800 --> 40:32.160]  to track eating, smoking, or other habits that you're trying to change.
[40:32.160 --> 40:34.400]  Reporter Karen Kayfa explains.
[40:34.400 --> 40:36.680]  Out with old habits, in with the new.
[40:36.680 --> 40:42.600]  I'm going to join a gym and become more active.
[40:42.600 --> 40:46.160]  I'm going to try to drink more water because I drink too much diet soda.
[40:46.160 --> 40:51.000]  New Year's resolutions are easy to make and even easier to break.
[40:51.000 --> 40:53.640]  Have you guys ever had a resolution that you didn't quite stick with?
[40:53.640 --> 40:54.640]  Yes.
[40:54.640 --> 40:55.640]  What was that?
[40:55.640 --> 40:56.640]  Going on a diet.
[40:56.640 --> 40:59.080]  It was to stop biting my nails, but then they're worked out.
[40:59.080 --> 41:02.680]  So what if you had a reminder in your pocket every day?
[41:02.680 --> 41:08.680]  That's the goal of smartphone apps like Resolutions 2012, which lets users choose goals, identify
[41:08.680 --> 41:13.220]  habits they need to change to meet them, and track progress.
[41:13.220 --> 41:16.040]  Weight loss is a popular resolution each year.
[41:16.040 --> 41:20.260]  The daily burn app for iPhone manages workouts and calorie counts.
[41:20.260 --> 41:25.080]  The new weight loss app for Android gives day by day tips on eating, working out, and
[41:25.080 --> 41:26.400]  slimming down.
[41:26.400 --> 41:31.160]  The My Quick Coach app from Livestrong is for those who want to kick butts in 2012.
[41:31.160 --> 41:35.940]  The app presents daily guidelines for quitting smoking gradually over time or helping you
[41:35.940 --> 41:37.500]  go cold turkey.
[41:37.500 --> 41:41.380]  The quitter app for iPhone tallies how much money you've saved since putting down your
[41:41.380 --> 41:42.380]  last cigarette.
[41:42.380 --> 41:46.280]  And keeping a resolution can require a support system.
[41:46.280 --> 41:48.480]  I want to try to eat healthier.
[41:48.480 --> 41:52.060]  We got to be a role model and show them more how to eat healthy.
[41:52.060 --> 41:57.560]  Try posting your goal on social media so connections can cheer you on.
[41:57.560 --> 41:59.960]  That was Karen Kayfa reporting.
[41:59.960 --> 42:05.060]  Visitors to the Sierra are putting away their skis and instead taking out their golf clubs.
[42:05.060 --> 42:11.200]  The National Weather Service says Tahoe had the eighth driest December since 1903.
[42:11.200 --> 42:17.240]  Just 3.72 inches of precipitation fell in the last three months of the year, just 31
[42:17.240 --> 42:18.760]  percent of average precipitation.
[42:18.760 --> 42:24.480]  In fact, the owner of the old Brockway Golf Club on Tahoe's normally snowy North Shore
[42:24.480 --> 42:30.320]  says that he's actually open right now for the first time ever in his 20 years of business.
[42:30.320 --> 42:33.000]  It is amazing what a difference a year makes.
[42:33.000 --> 42:34.000]  Absolutely.
[42:34.000 --> 42:35.000]  And we were we were up there last year.
[42:35.000 --> 42:36.000]  There's just snow everywhere.
[42:36.000 --> 42:37.000]  Yeah, absolutely.
[42:37.000 --> 42:38.960]  Well, is it going to change?
[42:38.960 --> 42:39.960]  That's the question.
[42:39.960 --> 42:43.000]  KTVU meteorologist Mark Tamayo joins us now to give us our forecast.
[42:43.000 --> 42:47.080]  Well, yeah, we have it locked in this dry weather pattern essentially for over a month
[42:47.080 --> 42:49.260]  now with a few a week systems moving in.
[42:49.260 --> 42:53.240]  And unfortunately, no big changes showing up in the long range weather maps as we begin
[42:53.240 --> 42:54.240]  2012.
[42:54.240 --> 42:55.800]  Here's a look at the highs from today.
[42:55.800 --> 42:58.640]  You can see look at these 70s is January 1st.
[42:58.640 --> 43:01.600]  Morgan Hill topped out at 74 degrees.
[43:01.600 --> 43:04.600]  I will say Santa Cruz also topped out in the lower 70s as well.
[43:04.600 --> 43:05.600]  Seventy three.
[43:05.600 --> 43:08.720]  Some patchy fog lingered right around the Concord of Vallejo, keeping those temperatures
[43:08.720 --> 43:14.240]  in the upper 50s, but still at least across most of the Bay Area temperatures on the mild
[43:14.240 --> 43:15.240]  side.
[43:15.240 --> 43:18.360]  This was a time lapse about an hour ago looking out toward the oak estuary.
[43:18.360 --> 43:20.080]  A few high clouds have been increasing.
[43:20.080 --> 43:24.000]  You can see all the boats coming in from a nice day on the bay to celebrate New Year's
[43:24.000 --> 43:25.000]  Day.
[43:25.000 --> 43:28.560]  As far as overnight lows starting out tomorrow morning on the cool side, once again, we're
[43:28.560 --> 43:34.000]  talking about some 30s showing up in Santa Rosa, Napa and also Concord, Oakland at 42
[43:34.000 --> 43:36.760]  and San Jose right around 40 patchy fog.
[43:36.760 --> 43:40.000]  Locally dense could return, especially toward the inland valleys right around the delta
[43:40.000 --> 43:43.600]  as well and up in the North Bay for Santa Rosa.
[43:43.600 --> 43:47.660]  The bigger perspective in the Pacific, the satellite, there's actually a storm out here,
[43:47.660 --> 43:51.700]  but the unfortunate part of that news, if you want the rain, the snow is heading way
[43:51.700 --> 43:52.700]  up to our north.
[43:52.700 --> 43:55.040]  Here's the system I am tracking for tomorrow.
[43:55.040 --> 43:58.260]  The associated cold front will be approaching Northern California.
[43:58.260 --> 44:03.280]  This will have an impact on our forecast for your Monday with partly to mostly cloudy skies.
[44:03.280 --> 44:07.360]  Most areas coming down about four to eight degrees from today's highs and there is just
[44:07.360 --> 44:12.240]  a tiny chance, that much of a chance of a North Bay sprinkle as we do head into it tomorrow
[44:12.240 --> 44:16.040]  afternoon, but it looks like the bulk of the shower activity will be up to our north and
[44:16.040 --> 44:17.360]  we're not expecting much.
[44:17.360 --> 44:20.440]  This is mainly a cloud producer and also bringing some cooler air.
[44:20.440 --> 44:24.680]  In fact, it shows up nicely with the updated forecast model tomorrow morning at nine o'clock.
[44:24.680 --> 44:25.680]  Some cloud cover out there.
[44:25.680 --> 44:30.080]  You'll notice that rain band from Cape Mendocino to the north and not drifting too much to
[44:30.080 --> 44:32.880]  the south by 12 o'clock, so quite a few clouds.
[44:32.880 --> 44:38.280]  That's why we do have partly to mostly cloudy skies in the Bay Area forecast for your Monday.
[44:38.280 --> 44:41.240]  Seven o'clock, definitely want to bundle up with temperatures in the upper 30s to the
[44:41.240 --> 44:42.240]  upper 40s.
[44:42.240 --> 44:44.280]  A sun cloud mix by 12 o'clock.
[44:44.280 --> 44:48.320]  Still quite a few clouds out there and then by three o'clock, partly cloudy skies.
[44:48.320 --> 44:52.920]  Most areas on either side of 60 degrees for afternoon high, so Santa Rosa no longer in
[44:52.920 --> 44:53.920]  the upper 60s.
[44:53.920 --> 44:59.760]  We're going to put you at 61, San Francisco 59 and San Jose tops out 63 degrees out of
[44:59.760 --> 45:02.680]  the 70s and Morgan Hill back down to 65.
[45:02.680 --> 45:05.880]  Here is a look ahead, your extended forecast and you will notice this, temperatures in
[45:05.880 --> 45:11.220]  fact warming up a little bit as we do head into Tuesday and then also into Wednesday.
[45:11.220 --> 45:15.200]  Partly cloudy skies on Thursday as these very weak systems move up to our north.
[45:15.200 --> 45:17.720]  With your weekend always in view, if you're looking for more rain, you're not going to
[45:17.720 --> 45:21.480]  find it here just yet with those readings mainly in the lower 60s.
[45:21.480 --> 45:25.200]  Heather and Ken, typically when we have a dry period, we always have the other extreme
[45:25.200 --> 45:30.600]  about two weeks away, but I can usually always advertise that in the forecast, but nothing
[45:30.600 --> 45:31.600]  showing up just yet.
[45:31.600 --> 45:32.600]  Nothing inside, huh?
[45:32.600 --> 45:33.600]  Yeah.
[45:33.600 --> 45:36.160]  And hopefully maybe things could change with the updated forecast charts coming in the
[45:36.160 --> 45:37.160]  next few hours.
[45:37.160 --> 45:38.160]  All right, Mark.
[45:38.160 --> 45:39.160]  Thanks.
[45:39.160 --> 45:40.160]  Thanks.
[45:40.160 --> 45:42.440]  Well, Tom Cruise's latest mission is succeeding at the box office.
[45:42.440 --> 45:43.840]  Jump now?
[45:43.840 --> 45:44.840]  Yes.
[45:44.840 --> 45:45.840]  Commit.
[45:45.840 --> 45:46.840]  Jump.
[45:46.840 --> 45:52.880]  Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol has now scaled more than $100 million in U.S. sales,
[45:52.880 --> 45:56.240]  about $30 million from this final holiday weekend.
[45:56.240 --> 46:00.200]  The action-packed film is helping Hollywood finish a tough year on a high note.
[46:00.200 --> 46:04.240]  Mission was again followed by Sherlock Holmes, A Game of Shadows, and Alvin and the Chip
[46:04.240 --> 46:05.800]  Monks, Chip Wrecked.
[46:05.800 --> 46:10.000]  Steven Spielberg's new movie, War Horse, trotted to fourth place, and the violent thriller
[46:10.000 --> 46:14.600]  girl with the dragon tattoo is inked in at fifth place.
[46:14.600 --> 46:16.680]  Well, it is a nail-biter Sunday.
[46:16.680 --> 46:21.520]  As teams all around the NFL battle for final playoff spots, and that includes the Raiders,

[47:44.840 --> 47:45.840]  Baby, baby.
[47:45.840 --> 47:52.360]  Finally, a hybrid that's as easy on the eyes as it is on the environment, the 40-mile-per-gallon
[47:52.360 --> 47:58.200]  highway Sonata Hybrid from Hyundai.
[47:58.200 --> 47:59.200]  It's coming.
[47:59.200 --> 48:02.460]  It's the most technologically advanced auto show in the country.
[48:02.460 --> 48:07.080]  This is where technology meets the road, is the Silicon Valley International Auto Show.
[48:07.080 --> 48:11.400]  Four days, January 5th through the 8th at the San Jose McHenry Convention Center.
[48:11.400 --> 48:13.920]  Drive over 35 models right at the show.
[48:13.920 --> 48:17.520]  See exotic cars like Aston Martin, Lamborghini, and more.
[48:17.520 --> 48:20.280]  See the Chip Foose WD-40 Challenger.
[48:20.280 --> 48:24.680]  It's the Silicon Valley International Auto Show, January 5th through the 8th.
[48:24.680 --> 48:28.560]  Don't let technology pass you by.
[48:28.560 --> 48:32.840]  Go to the KTVU.com ski section under the weather tab for up-to-date ski reports.
[48:32.840 --> 48:41.680]  Brought to you by Badger Pass, Yosemite's family ski destination.
[48:41.680 --> 48:51.160]  How's it going, everybody?
[48:51.160 --> 48:52.160]  Happy New Year.
[48:52.160 --> 48:53.160]  I'm Mark Ybanis.
[48:53.160 --> 48:54.160]  Welcome to Sports Wrap.
[48:54.160 --> 48:58.640]  I think it was a little more entertaining than anybody who pulls for the 49ers wanted it
[48:58.640 --> 49:02.040]  to be, but the end result, it fits the wish list.
[49:02.040 --> 49:04.760]  Victory, a first round bye, and no major injuries.
[49:04.760 --> 49:09.720]  I'll tell you what though, San Francisco, they can dish out punishment on defense.
[49:09.720 --> 49:13.480]  No doubt sending a few of the Rams into their off season with some bumps and bruises.
[49:13.480 --> 49:16.440]  The always punishing Patrick Willis was back.
[49:16.440 --> 49:17.440]  Bad hamstring.
[49:17.440 --> 49:19.480]  He's healthy, down early, 7-0.
[49:19.480 --> 49:20.480]  Niners tie it.
[49:20.480 --> 49:23.760]  Alex Smith got good blocks from Justin Peel and Frank Gore.
[49:23.760 --> 49:25.360]  He is in from 11 yards out.
[49:25.360 --> 49:26.360]  We got 7-7.
[49:26.360 --> 49:29.840]  Just a wee bit later, Smith will zip it to Michael Crabtree.
[49:29.840 --> 49:31.880]  Want to see why the Rams are so bad?
[49:31.880 --> 49:32.880]  Yeah.
[49:32.880 --> 49:33.880]  They can't tackle.
[49:33.880 --> 49:34.880]  That's one thing.
[49:34.880 --> 49:35.880]  28 yards.
[49:35.880 --> 49:36.880]  Touchdown.
[49:36.880 --> 49:37.880]  20-7.
[49:37.880 --> 49:38.880]  Niners at half.
[49:38.880 --> 49:39.880]  Third quarter.
[49:39.880 --> 49:40.920]  You will see a little trickery here.
[49:40.920 --> 49:42.000]  The fake field goal.
[49:42.000 --> 49:46.720]  David Akers lobbing to Michael Crabtree all by his lonesome 27-10.
[49:46.720 --> 49:48.360]  You got to take a look at that.
[49:48.360 --> 49:49.360]  It's good.
[49:49.360 --> 49:50.720]  Crabtree a little sheepish there.
[49:50.720 --> 49:51.720]  Look at him.
[49:51.720 --> 49:52.720]  He's out there.
[49:52.720 --> 49:54.080]  Rams don't happen to notice that.
[49:54.080 --> 49:58.720]  And Akers, who said he didn't even get to warm his arm up, lobs it to him perfectly.
[49:58.720 --> 49:59.720]  34-13.
[49:59.720 --> 50:05.680]  Kellen Clemons of the Rams will loft one deep for the former 49er, Brandon Lloyd.
[50:05.680 --> 50:06.680]  Touchdown.
[50:06.680 --> 50:07.680]  36 yards.
[50:07.680 --> 50:11.800]  They add another touchdown after an onside kick was successful.
[50:11.800 --> 50:15.440]  But Clemons in the late going sack by Navarro Bowman.
[50:15.440 --> 50:17.760]  That pretty much put an end to the Rams.
[50:17.760 --> 50:18.760]  34-27.
[50:18.760 --> 50:19.760]  The final.
[50:19.760 --> 50:22.720]  Jim Harbaugh and company wrap one up.
[50:22.720 --> 50:25.960]  One of their best regular seasons ever, too, at 13-3.
[50:25.960 --> 50:27.740]  And the first round by.
[50:27.740 --> 50:30.680]  And they'll finally play at the stick in two weeks.
[50:30.680 --> 50:35.120]  Meanwhile, with all due respect, if you saw the Raiders with everything on the line this
[50:35.120 --> 50:40.280]  afternoon there for the taking, simply put, they just didn't deserve to be in the playoffs.
[50:40.280 --> 50:45.120]  The Chargers will move the ball at will and eventually move the Raiders right on into
[50:45.120 --> 50:46.880]  vacation mode.
[50:46.880 --> 50:49.480]  Carson Palmer to Darius Hayward-Bay.
[50:49.480 --> 50:51.360]  That's a nice little fade play.
[50:51.360 --> 50:52.360]  7-0.
[50:52.360 --> 50:53.660]  DHB, by the way.
[50:53.660 --> 50:55.400]  Great game as you see the catch again.
[50:55.400 --> 50:56.560]  Nine grabs for him.
[50:56.560 --> 50:57.560]  130 yards.
[50:57.560 --> 50:58.560]  Touchdown.
[50:58.560 --> 50:59.960]  San Diego answers back.
[50:59.960 --> 51:03.360]  Philip Rivers to Antonio Gates.
[51:03.360 --> 51:04.360]  That was what it was.
[51:04.360 --> 51:07.640]  Just a porous defense by the Raiders all afternoon.
[51:07.640 --> 51:08.640]  7-7.
[51:08.640 --> 51:11.080]  Now watch this on the kickoff a bit later.
[51:11.080 --> 51:16.120]  Richard Goodman comes out of the end zone and nobody will stop him.
[51:16.120 --> 51:17.120]  He's gone.
[51:17.120 --> 51:22.480]  105-yard return for the Chargers and they lead it 24-13 at half.
[51:22.480 --> 51:26.120]  Still, the Raiders with a great shot at pulling this ball game out.
[51:26.120 --> 51:31.400]  In the fourth quarter, Palmer, who threw for 401 yards, up top for the tight end Kevin
[51:31.400 --> 51:32.400]  Boss.
[51:32.400 --> 51:33.400]  He's got it.
[51:33.400 --> 51:34.400]  Touchdown, Raiders.
[51:34.400 --> 51:36.000]  They pulled it within 31-26.
[51:36.000 --> 51:38.860]  Boss shaken up on the play, had to be helped off.
[51:38.860 --> 51:42.840]  As you see the replay there, he seemed to take a shot to the back of the neck.
[51:42.840 --> 51:46.320]  But after that, the kickoff ensues.
[51:46.320 --> 51:47.320]  It's a key play.
[51:47.320 --> 51:52.380]  Again, Goodman will bobble the ball apparently on the goal line.
[51:52.380 --> 51:55.560]  The Raiders, their fans, everybody thinks that's a safety.
[51:55.560 --> 51:58.320]  They've got the momentum, the ball, and two points.
[51:58.320 --> 52:03.680]  But the officials, after review, correctly rule it's a San Diego ball on the half-yard
[52:03.680 --> 52:08.560]  line and dejectedly, the Raiders just give it up.
[52:08.560 --> 52:14.240]  99-and-a-half-yard drive, rivers to Malcolm Floyd to finish it off and finish off the
[52:14.240 --> 52:16.480]  Raiders 38-26.
[52:16.480 --> 52:17.640]  Hugh Jackson is livid.
[52:17.640 --> 52:19.320]  You'll hear from him tonight at 10.
[52:19.320 --> 52:22.000]  For the second straight year, Raiders finish 8-8.
[52:22.000 --> 52:25.000]  Needless to say, this one stings a bit more than last year.
[52:25.000 --> 52:27.240]  They had the playoffs in their sights.
[52:27.240 --> 52:31.520]  So after all, it's Tebow time in the playoffs, although through the backdoor, there's a mom.
[52:31.520 --> 52:33.200]  She had a son on both teams.
[52:33.200 --> 52:35.680]  Chiefs and Broncos only touchdown of the game.
[52:35.680 --> 52:43.680]  Dexter McCluster from 21 yards out will scamper to the end zone, 7-3 Denver, losing but still
[52:43.680 --> 52:45.720]  winning.
[52:45.720 --> 52:50.960]  The Jets, meanwhile, had their very verbose coach shut up.
[52:50.960 --> 52:53.560]  They go home after blowing it against the Dolphins.
[52:53.560 --> 52:58.440]  Matt Moore, a toss to Charles Clay, 1-yard, 19-17 Miami.
[52:58.440 --> 53:03.720]  And by the way, one of the great careers coming to an end, Jason Taylor retiring for the Dolphins
[53:03.720 --> 53:08.480]  after 15 years in the NFL, 13 of them with Miami.
[53:08.480 --> 53:13.680]  Baltimore bruising it up with the Bengals, a low-scoring event.
[53:13.680 --> 53:17.640]  The Baltimore Ravens, they make you pay for everything.
[53:17.640 --> 53:20.240]  And then Ray Rice on the loose, 70 yards.
[53:20.240 --> 53:25.440]  The Dolphins roll 24-16 to wrap up the number two seed in the AFC.
[53:25.440 --> 53:28.320]  Meanwhile, the Packers and Lions.
[53:28.320 --> 53:29.320]  Who needs Aaron Rodgers?
[53:29.320 --> 53:33.560]  Did you hear about the Packers backup quarterback, Matt Flynn?
[53:33.560 --> 53:36.000]  He'll flip a little screen pass here to Ryan Grant.
[53:36.000 --> 53:38.800]  He'll do the rest, 80 yards.
[53:38.800 --> 53:43.160]  And by the way, Flynn, six touchdown passes.
[53:43.160 --> 53:44.760]  That's a Packer record.
[53:44.760 --> 53:49.640]  Rodgers, Brett Favre, this kid's got the record, 45-41.
[53:49.640 --> 53:51.920]  Packers lose only once in the regular season.
[53:51.920 --> 53:56.680]  The Saints are the three seed in the NFC, and they do look as though they're peaking
[53:56.680 --> 53:57.680]  right now.
[53:57.680 --> 54:00.960]  They're just rolling big time on offense, 17-0 Carolina.
[54:00.960 --> 54:05.000]  Drew Brees flips for Marcus Colston, 42 yards.
[54:05.000 --> 54:10.360]  Brees on the beam again, touchdown Saints big time, 45-17.
[54:10.360 --> 54:14.160]  Took the Patriots a while to heat it up, looking to lock up the home field advantage for the
[54:14.160 --> 54:16.360]  postseason in the AFC.
[54:16.360 --> 54:23.880]  Down 21, zip to Buffalo early, Tom Brady loves his tight end, Rob Gronkowski, 49-21 final.
[54:23.880 --> 54:27.880]  Brady on the day, 338 yards passing, and three touchdowns.
[54:27.880 --> 54:32.360]  Fill out the rest of the NFL on this final day of the regular season, Tennessee not going
[54:32.360 --> 54:34.400]  to the playoffs, even with their win.
[54:34.400 --> 54:38.840]  The Bengals lose, and they get there anyway through a convoluted circumstance.
[54:38.840 --> 54:43.360]  Meanwhile, in other games, Pittsburgh on the long end against Cleveland, looked like a
[54:43.360 --> 54:44.360]  boring one there.
[54:44.360 --> 54:48.280]  The Colts lose again, securing the number one pick in this spring's draft.
[54:48.280 --> 54:52.120]  Atlanta clobbers Tampa, the Bucs quit weeks ago.
[54:52.120 --> 54:55.200]  Vic throws for three TDs, 335 yards.
[54:55.200 --> 54:58.440]  The Eagles roll, but they go home.
[54:58.440 --> 55:02.080]  The Bears win, but they are done, as is Minnesota.
[55:02.080 --> 55:06.160]  And in overtime, it was Arizona, a field goal better than Seattle.
[55:06.160 --> 55:09.640]  Great one this evening, the NFC East at stake win, and you're in.
[55:09.640 --> 55:14.600]  Dallas and the Giants, no score yet at the Meadowlands from that one.
[55:14.600 --> 55:19.240]  The second half of Sports Wrap just ahead, and it looks like a former playoff hero, we're
[55:19.240 --> 55:24.200]  talking baseball here, might be making the commute across the Bay Bridge to the east
[55:24.200 --> 55:25.200]  side of the Bay.
[55:25.200 --> 55:32.160]  A little NBA stuff to talk about when we come back to Sports Wrap, part two, next.
[55:32.160 --> 55:41.480]  Oh my God, how did you do that?
[55:41.480 --> 55:42.480]  These are all my friends.
[55:42.480 --> 55:47.640]  All new month, Wednesday at 9 on KTVU Fox 2.
[55:47.640 --> 55:52.240]  You and 19 of your friends can win tickets to the Alcatraz premiere party, January 11th
[55:52.240 --> 55:53.240]  on Alcatraz Island.
[55:53.240 --> 55:58.960]  Go to KTVU.com to enter, and don't miss the two-hour Alcatraz premiere event, Monday,
[55:58.960 --> 56:02.000]  January 16th at 8 on KTVU Fox 2.
[56:02.000 --> 56:03.960]  Brought to you by your local Ford dealer.
[56:03.960 --> 56:05.040]  Make the right choice.
[56:05.040 --> 56:08.020]  See your California Ford dealer today.
[56:08.020 --> 56:13.400]  This year I decided to spare no expense for our holiday dinner, so I hired renowned chef
[56:13.400 --> 56:14.400]  Gordon Ramsay.
[56:14.400 --> 56:15.400]  Oh, come on.
[56:15.400 --> 56:16.400]  It's disgusting.
[56:16.400 --> 56:17.400]  How new?
[56:17.400 --> 56:18.400]  What are you doing?
[56:18.400 --> 56:19.400]  It's raw.

[56:56.600 --> 56:57.600]  I can explain.
[56:57.600 --> 57:00.000]  Jumping a ramp in a shopping cart.
[57:00.000 --> 57:01.000]  So 2005.

[57:44.440 --> 57:48.700]  Oakland reportedly in talks with the former giant Ross who overpriced himself in the early
[57:48.700 --> 57:51.520]  stages of the winter asking for a three-year deal.
[57:51.520 --> 57:56.480]  Now getting some nibbles, Ross who caught lightning in a bottle in the 2010 postseason
[57:56.480 --> 58:02.480]  apparently has lowered his demands after an extremely disappointing 2011 season with the
[58:02.480 --> 58:04.840]  Giants when he hit only 240.
