first camera. this may blow your mind. it was in 1888. the 1800s, do you believe it? technology has certainly advanced since then. the change, they keep on coming. >> reporter: the point and shoot camera as we know it is becoming less important. many of us now are content with the pictures we take from our cell phones. but a new silicon valley start-up called lytro is poised to shake things up with what it says is a revolutionary new camera. right now it is just a tease. all you can do is check out some pictures on the company's website. not impressed yet? well, watch this. you can change the focus of the picture after it is taken. see this mom in the background? baby is slightly out of focus. click on him and he become crystal clear. check out this cafe. the sandwich looks very good? you want to see the man in the window? just click on him and he becomes sharp. this man developed the

technology while working on his ph.d. at stanford. the breakthrough is the camera is able to capture more light than others. >> the key to this at its core is such a powerful technology breakthrough that this will take how we take and experience pictures. >> reporter: how much of a game changer is it? we spoke with richard hernandez, a professional photographer now teaching at uc berkeley. lytro gave him a camera to test. because the company is still in stealth mode, it put the device in a protective case so hernandez hasn't actually seen it. >> it is masked. it is like a brick of plastic. i don't know what it is. i really can't tell you what is inside there. >> reporter: but hernandez said he was instantly sole after taking his first picture. >> my job pretty much dropped, my jaw dropped on the floor. no question about that. i knew immediately when i saw

what it could do that it was going to be a whole new ball game for photography. to be able to now shoot a picture and be able to refocus it later, not have to worry about that is a big deal. >> reporter: lytro has set up shop in this nondecember crypt office building in mountain view, california. near google. it is so seekive it wouldn't let us shoot inside. they haven't said what the camera will cost but they said it will be competitively price sewed they get widespread adaption. it is known that it could have sold to it one of the big time camera makers like nicon or cannon but it opted to hold on to it to have a revolutionary new product. cnn, san francisco. >> revolutionary indeed. be sure to watch every sunday at 2:00 eastern time right here in the cnn newsroom. here's what's happening this

hour. americans planning to travel to the mexican border city of nuevo laredo are being urged to cancel their plans this week. texas authorities warn they have information that a mexican drug cartel plans to target u.s. citizens in nuevo laredo for robbery, extortion or carjackings. and wildfires in texas are cutting into fourth of july fun. the texas forest service is reporting a record setting 235 counties under burn bans prior to this holiday weekend. in many areas, that translates into a ban on fire work. attorneys for tucson shooting suspect jared lee loughner are appealing a judge's decision to forcibly medicate him. prison doctors say loughner needs to be on anti-psychotic drugs to control his schizophrenia. loughner is accused of shooting congresswoman gabrielle giffords and 18 others back in january. in florida, the murder trial that has captured headlines is now nearing an end. closing arguments in the casey anthony murder trial are

expected to begin tomorrow. anthony is accused of killing her young daughter three years ago. she is charged with first-degree murder, child abuse and misleading police. a 71-year-old seattle grandfather has been arrested for child murder that happened more than five decades ago. police say jack daniel mccullough was living under an assumed named in a retirement community. he is accused of killing a 7-year-old girl in 1957 outside chicago. here's a photo oldest child from the cover of today's "chicago sun times," including the child and headline. here is one way to boost business. sell beer? that's exactly what two sonic restaurants in south florida will be doing soon. the move follows burger king, whopper bars that recently opened in miami, las vegas and kansas city that actually sell beer. and there is a new women's

for prosecution to develop the case, to get it to the grand jury, was a relatively short window. but to its credit, the fans went public yesterday and said there are such severe credibility issues, if we're going to do justice, at least in terms of meeting its burden beyond a reasonable doubt, the case must end. and he did the right thing. >> what's going on here, richard? yes, avery underscored there is forensic evidence substantiating that something, there was some sort of contact between these two. at least that's the allegation. and investigators want to stand by that. but they have a problem with the story of the alleged victim. how is it that perhaps the -- i guess the story really needs to supersede that forensic evidence or at least match it and that's the problem. it just doesn't match?

>> fred, the great yogi berra coined the phrase, it's not over until it's over. this case is over. this week, it will be dismissed. there is no way they can prosecute him for this and there is no way a new york jury -- >> no way, even if there is forensic evidence. >> impossible. the defense says it was consensual, number one. number two, this alleged victim has now proven to be a liar on many issues, including claiming she was gang raped, raped back in her own country. that was a lie. you cannot have a rape victim on the stand with her credibility on the line who previously claimed to have been raped and was not. that's for starters. 24 hours after the arrest, there is a jail house telephone conversation with her and her boyfriend who is in prison in arizona. and during the conversation, she is telling him, don't worry, this guy has a lot of money and i know what i'm doing.

price. yemen was never rich. the poorest arab nation. average annual income, less than $1,000. no margin to tackle rising costs. tensions are rising. none more so than in the lines for fuel, snaking out of empty gas stations. snarling the city. >> this one stretches all the way up the road as far as you can see. the situation here really getting a little bit volatile. some people have closed the road up here. there are bricks in the road. we heard at least one gunshot fired. that's the line for the gas station on that side of the road. if you look across the other side of the highway here, another line of cars. the only way to see it properly is by car. we're going to drive down the lane this way now. just car after car after car. some of them have been lining up for days. here's the check point here. this is people tell us this is

more diverse than they used to be. >> reporter: his greatest concern right now, al qaeda in the arabian peninsula which is exploiting the current unrest in yemen. do you see the safe haven there expanding? >> i think al qaeda has taken advantage of some of the disruption. especially in the south of the country. and that's a real concern for us. >> reporter: does it present an opportunity for the united states in some way? is this the moment perhaps to take action? >> we look at this as an excellent time to take the fight to the enemy. >> reporter: this includes after the death of osama bin laden. though he says bin laden's successor ayman al zawahiri is among those who may try to exact revenge. >> i think certainly the desire is there. the question is, do they have the capability? that's why again, we're trying to hit them during a period of real vulnerability. >> reporter: he says the raid on the bin laden compound was one of the high points of his

tenure. he said relief was the dominant emotion in the white house situation room when bin laden was killed. >> i wouldn't say rejoicing. we really didn't rejoice. for me, knowing that we had closed a bit of the story, turned to a new chapter for the families in their memory, i think that was the most rewarding thing. i know after the event, i called one of the families of the victims of 9/11. to speak to them and know that we could show that we had been working this for so long and so hard, and have some successful that was incredibly gratifying. >> reporter: the low point, he said, was christmas day 2009 when a nigerian allegedly tried to light a bomb concealed in his underwear and bring down a jetliner over detroit. >> i think we thought we were doing everything we could and we thought we were doing everything well and it turned out we missed one. us missing one almost led to a tragic death of many, many

people. that was a tough moment. and tough months after it. >> reporter: was it a wake-up call? >> i think it was a wake-up call. and i think the organization at that point, and i at that point had an opportunity to make a choice. did we kind of curl up and die? did we not accept legitimate criticism? or did we take the legitimate criticism and prove the center? and i think we chose the latter. and i'm quite proud of that. >> reporter: when the christmas day plot unfolded, he went on a previously scheduled ski vacation with his young son. the white house officials said they approved it, he was criticized. >> i'm not sure that people understand in reality, you're not really on vacation. the constant communications you're in in these jobs. but i have regrets because it left an image of nctc. it left an image of the counter terrorism community as not being 100% focused on these issues all the time. and i was extremely regretful and continue to be that my

choices ended up reflecting badly on the organization and the administration. i'm very sorry about that. >> reporter: he is stepping down because he says, it is good for the agency to have new leadership with new perspective. and after four and a half years running at 100% capacity 24 hours a day, he is ready to slow down a bit. cnn, washington. this holiday, weather means different thing to different parts of the country. in farkt it is quite alarming if you're in the los angeles area, how dry it is, and the winds have really kicked up. >> yes. they are breezing. not as high as they were but we have that terrible fire danger across much of. in. this is the number one priority fire in the country. in west texas and north central texas, they've had over 3 million acres that have burned due to fires this season. we're only seeing some spotty shower activity well to the north of albuquerque and right along the arizona/. in border. these are barely enough to do

a slight read right now. if she wins, she will be the first female prime minister. she is 44 years old. she has become very popular. she's been running the past month. she is connected to the ousted prime minister. he was ousted by the military in 2006 and now lives in self-imposed exile. and he himself has said that she is his clone. so the people who hate him and he is very much loved by the poor and hated by the elite. they might not want her to win because she could give him amnesty possibly and he could come back. and then the military could step in which has been stepping in to oust him since 2006. on the other hand we have the incumbent prime minister who wants to keep his job. he is supported by the military

and has support in the south. they're running neck in neck. if he wins, there could be turmoil again. those who support the ousted prime minister who is living -- >> how vocal are supporters for either one of the candidates? >> so far so good. the election has been preceding but the potential is there. because of what we have seen since thaksin sinawatra was ousted. those who hate him say he has been corrupt and authoritarian. a very divisive figure. it is interesting his sister has said if she wins, she will not necessarily try to help her brother. she wants to be her own person. and she will try to reconcile thailand. >> does it appear there is a leader between the two thus far? >> she has the slight lead. her party has the slight lead but it is not clear if she will be able to form the government.

she will need a majority of the seats if she doesn't get that. and also the poll are notoriously unreliable in thailand. we we don't know, within or is other will win. >> the counting of the votes, do people fear that they may not necessarily believe the outcome right away? >> there hasn't been a big issue with the credibility of the electi elections, however the election commission is said to be closer to the establishment and the current prime minister, so if they hand the win over to the establishment, there could be a serious issue. one of the oldest allies of washington, a piece of trivia that i read, is that thailand offered lincoln elephants during the civil war to fight. that's how far into history

their relations go. >> wow, fascinating stuff. we will be watching. we will be watching with a keener interest and eye now that you have given us the lay of the land. coming up, we're going to introduce you to a little dog that really knows how to move. you've got to see this video. sweetie i think you need a little extra fiber in your diet. carol. fiber makes me sad. oh common. and how can you talk to me about fiber while you are eating a candy bar? you enjoy that. i am.

why the two sides simply can't agree. >> reporter: we're nearly four months into the nfl lockout and still no deal in plies, as owners and players argue about how to split up 11 billion in revenue. >> i would like to think that prudent heads will prevail in coming up with something that effectively is a win-win situation and doesn't alienate your fan base. when you look at folks who are dealing with day to day issues, being cut back to 80% and 90% of their workweek, and 90% and 80% of their pay and more, and others losing their jobs, home foreclosures, they have to be very sensitive to that. >> reporter: president obama said work it out, and he had a

little tone in his rhetoric. >> they can figure out a way to divide it up and be fair to their fans who obviously allow all the money that they're making. so my expectation is that it can be worked out without me intervening because i've got a lot of other stuff to go. >> with the average career span of a player about six years, players are reluctant. fans tend to side with the players, but they say get a deal done already. >> i think actually both sides should just end it and get back to what they do. >> reporter: as for the product on the field -- >> i think absolutely the product will suffer if in fact training camps are delayed in a very significant fashion. and certainly one of the biggest concerns are injuries. >> reporter: if a deal isn't reached soon,
