line. this year, that's expected to jump to 35%. which means stores will need fewer helpers who will work longer hours. thomas beatty is with manpower job placement center. >> if you're available to work, you know, late night or from -- late night to early morning, definitely will help you to get the job. >> more retailers are staying open on thanksgiving and black friday starts at midnight in some stores. this seasonal worker will work an 18-hour shift on friday. he's hoping it will pay off. >> only going to keep about three to four people for full time and hiring 50 seasonal. >> employers continue to hold all the cards. >> i get almost 10 to 20 people a day asking me for a job from 16-year-olds to grown men wearing suits. >> right now, santa clara county's unemployment rate is 9.5%. in san jose, abc 7 news.

menu here in burlinggame and it isn't the capaceo, it's the calories. >> we have nutritional facts and calories. we got it for our entire menu including the dessert menu. >> a growing number of chain restaurants are telling customers right on their menus how many calories they're about to scarf. >> we have a 22 ounce porterhouse steak that's the highest calorie count at 1400. >> menu labelling took off last year when california passed a law requiring chain restaurants to post calories next to food items. the aim is to fight obesity. however, the law was stopped in its tracks, ironically when president obama signed the health care reform bill. >> we had the state law that was still in effect but the federal law pre-empt ed the state law. >> here's what's happening. the health care reform law requires calorie posting, too, and it says states cannot have a different calorie law. that's threw california into confusion. the law here must be exactly the same as the federal law but

interview. however, his spokesperson said customers don't go to carl jr. to lose weight. she said we like to think our target market is young, hungry guys. 18 to 34-year-old men. we're not marking any diet burgers. they're delicious, big, very cravable burgers. if people want to come in and treat themselves to. she said carl's junior has a poster in every restaurant listing nutritional information and for now, wants to avoid the expense of changing all its menus until it has to. so what about you? do you want to know how many calories are in that fried calamari or double cheeseburger? >> i think it's important. we do have a health problem in america. >> i think ignorance is bliss. if you just don't know how many calories you're taking in, you're not going to beat yourself up. >> i think it makes it a little harder to justify it for yourself when you're like oh, i'm about to consume like 1,000 calories in one sandwich. >> i don't think it's the federal government's responsibility for my calorie

intake. >> some say seeing calories did change their ordering hablt habit -- habits. >> fried calamari. >> i remember thinking chips and guac has that many calories? >> back at the restaurant, the orders were flowing. no one skimped on the bread. pasta seemed quite popular. >> they're going to go back and think a little bit more when you have a lasagna. >> the labelling law is still in limbo. for now, chain restaurants in california have agreed to provide customers with a brochure that lists all nutrition information of their menu items. restaurants with at least 20 locations should provide that brochure upon request. >> all right. let's talk to shu, notre dame and stanford coming up after this. >> can't wait. >> senior day on the farm. hosting notre dame in the regular season finale. we'll go live to stanford stadium for a preview

>> it's senior day on the farm and that entails a lot of different emotion. final game at home, your career almost over with your class. in the stanford case, they're looking to beat notre dame and keep their bcs game hopes alive. down on the farm 35 years after his senior day and rick, if oregon wins they're out of the pac 12 title game. what's the mood of the team and the fact it's senior day? >> it's likely very sentimental. hopefully going to be a very fond farewell for these guys. besides senior day, several red shirt juniors will be saying good-bye. martin and linebacker chase thomas are expected to turn pro so this will all in likelihood be their final home game. now, this game is also very important because a win over notre dame would improve the cardinals' record to 11-1 and all but ensure themselves of a spot in the bcs bowl game.

a couple of things to look for tonight, the cardinals will be sporting new uniforms provided by nike. just for this contest. they're called pro combat and feature a darker red than the usual cardinal. also, a big question going into this game was would tight end be available, he's been out for a few months with a knee injury. i spoke to him a few moments ago. >> i feel good. it's been a long time since i played last. i'm excited for this game. >> will you be able to play tonight? >> yes, i will be playing tonight. >> tell me, how tough has it been having to sit out the last month? >> it's been tough. we played oregon state. oregon, cal, those have been big names i've missed. excited to play notre dame tonight. >> so he's joining the tight ends, and the three amigos will be back together again. back to you. >> thanks a lot. looking forward to your post-game interviews. stanford-notre dame coming up on abc 7. stick around for after the game with larry biel and yours truly.

stanford needs oregon state to beat oregon. let's see it. there's the full screen we just talked about. let's move on the highlights. stanford needs oregon state to beat oregon for any shot of the pac 12 championship. dumps it off to stevenson. 58 yard touchdown. we're tied at seven. ducks strike back, 21 unanswered points. darren thomas find a wide open david paulson for 16 yards. up 14-7. 30 seconds left in the second. thomas throws his third touchdown of the game. this one to barner. oregon's offense was 394 yards in the first half. they'll host ucla in the championship game on friday. we may have basketball after all. they have reached a tentative agreement to end their lockout pending approval from both sides of the table. the two sides met for more than 15 hours yesterday and announced they have agreed on a deal but not saying much about the specifics. good news for the fans is that

if both sides can get a majority vote in favor of the new deal, a 66 game season will begin on christmas. the nba players also need to drop their antitrust lawsuit before voting on the deal. there's still drug testing and other issues that need to be sorted out. training camps could get started on december 9th. >> most important key thing here is that, you know, our fans and the support from the people, you know, that's what a lot of this credit goes to. you know, the efforts that have been made have been largely within their mind. >> stay tuned. we'll see you on "after the game." >> thanks a lot. that does it for abc 7 news at 4:00. >> thank you so much for joining us. >> saturday night football next and we'll be back at 11:00 p.m. thanks for joining us, everyone. good night.
