christina. >> president obama is wrapping up his vacation today and returning to washington tomorrow. but he is getting a little work done in hawaii. last night he signed the 9/11 health bill into law to pay for health care for responders to the world trade center in new york. it is believed pollution from the destroyed buildings made a lot of people sick. >> the 112th congress gets to work this week. republicans take the majority in the house tomorrow. gop leaders say the first thing is getting rid of president obama's health care plans. you hear a lot more about the national debt. republicans say they are determined to spend less. there is a debt ceiling of $43.3 trillion. congress can raise that, allowing the government to borrow more, but will they? >> i'm not going to vote for a debt-filling entry unless we go back to 2008 spending levels. >> the fear is if we hit the debt ceiling that say say could

happen before june could trigger's government shut down. >> a new way to collect garbage and recycleables. half a million people in southern san mateo county will have a new system. they will separate the garbage with a thirty-two-card system. the affected cities include atherton, belmont, burlingame, east palo alto and foster city. redwood city, san carlos and san mateo. they will begin the service today and have a float of fully automated trucks that will make it faster and more efficient. the marin county supervisors consider a law to ban the plastic bags at grocery stores. if approved, the ban would be in effect in unincorporated areas and only apply to certain grocery stores. they could place a moratorium on

the installation of pg&e smart meters. opponents of meters say they are inaccurate and pose a health hazard. >> 6:16 and a consumer tip from scott. >> we have our eye on border's books. over the weekend it announced it would not longer be able to pay vendors on time. the "wall street journal" said at least one publisher will stop sending new books to the scores until borders bays pills. if you have a gift card as a christmas gift, it would be smart to spend it now rather than later. we don't know what's going to happen. even border's is warning it could run out of cash. as as gift card holder, you are considered a creditor. >> half moon bay doesn't have much of it. the city is considering shutting down the 15-person police department and will hold the town hall meeting later this week to discuss further cuts.

the "wall street journal" said this morning the whole town could disincorporate. half moon bay is struggling like all cities, but agreed to pay $18 million to settle a lawsuit against it that was brought by a developer. $18 million is twice the city's annual budget. >> quite a budge tote work with. more doctors are going online to schedule appointments for their patients. most of the scheduling on their own or do it through health care systems. american academy of family physicians say there several reasons for the trend mostly because of the need to add patients. doctors are growing more comfortable with computers. . >> we will take you out here for the nice easy drive. the east shore freeway and the approach to the bay bridge toll plaza. an 18-minute drive. the live shot.

we have folks backing up in the cash lanes just off of the carpool lanes. i checked with our friends and you can see this. it doesn't look like anything unusual is going on. clearly you see the back up in the cash lanes. no metering lights yet. they will turn on for five or six minutes. we are looking at the travel times and no major issues. these will slow down because there is a lot of folks on the roadway who weren't here last week. 880 smooth from 238 into downtown oakland. an easy drive. the winds are calming. things are changing. >> the winds changed. blowing into the bay area. for us. a much drier pattern than what we saw yesterday. this morning, remnant moisture producing fog in santa rosa.

down to about five miles of visibility. not too bad. three miles of visibility and wherever you are headed this morning. keep in mind you might run into patchy and dense fog. take it easy. as we head throughout the day, we have a weather maker offshore. you see the classic counterclockwise rotation and low pressure. what that means for us is really fair skies. what's going to happen is the system will continue to right south on the jet stream. this is the pineapple express taking the system into southern california. for us, fair skies and probably by the second half of the day, mostly sunny and breezy as the system passes to the south. for los angeles, that means another day of rain and low snow levels. if you are trying to get down there, i-5 is shut down over the grapevine and 58 it shut down. 101 is the only option. we will keep you updated. temperatures are mild out there because of a good deck of clouds

trapped in the daytime heat. tomorrow morning we won't have as much cloud cover. we will end up warmer. in san jose and fremont, 50 degrees in concord. warmer up there. here's what you can expect as we head throughout the evening. as you commute home, it should be a nice commute weather-wise. 50 in san jose and here's what to expect for the rest of the week. looks like we have very little rainfall expected all the way throughout your extended forecast. only showers we put on the seven-day are on sunday. enjoy the fair weather while it lasts. back to you. >> thank you very much. the state of california is flipping the off switch for a widely used light bulb. bob redell has a look at a new law aimed at saving us a little money. >> this right here is a work horse. it has been. you probably just turned one on to brush your teeth or get the eggs on the stove. we are talking about the 100 watt bulb based on technology that is over 100 years old.

the problem is it's inefficient. about 90% of the energy is wasted through heat. california is requiring these bulbs fade to black to make way for the 72-watt hal jen bulb. that puts out the same amount of light and even costs about the same to purchase, but it uses less energy. the california energy commission estimates that consumers save over $35 million a year in terms of lower electricity bills and it would be cutting down on fossil fuels bushed at power plants. you are still allowed to use them at home. it's not like there is going to be a knock on your door saying you have a 100 watt on and you have to turn it off. you won't be able to buy them until the remaining ones on the shelves are sold. the standard was established under the federal energy independence and security act of 2007 which might have you wondering why isn't the rest of the country doing this considering it's a federal law?

california and nevada asked if they could have permission to enact the standards now starting january 1st, a couple of days ago. they got permission to do that and the rest of the country will have to start turning these things off in another year. live in the newsroom, today in the bay. >> thank you very much. >> thanks a lot. an assembly woman will take a shot at banning raves. she will meet with representatives and law enforcement and local governments to talk about ab 74, the bill she introduced in the state assembly last month designed to prohibit raves on public property and prevent them on private property unless they have a license. they fear it will hurt other night life events. the bill is in response to drug-related overdoses and deaths at concerts at the cow palace and in los angeles. more than a dozen were at the concert in cow palace.

>> it's a disaster of biblical proportions. choots happening with record flooding in australia. >> closer to home ark i live look outside. traffic picking up out ther when and where? we will have a look at the morning commute. switching to progressive could mean hundreds more in your wallet year after year. feed me! saving you money -- now, that's progressive. call or click today.

that is one thing not happening in youth sports. they studied about 200 kids ages 7 to 14 and found what there is is a lot of standing around at practice. one out of four kid who is plays soccer, baseball, and softball are getting the recommended 60 minutes of exercise per day. with girls softball, only 2% hit that mark. researchers found that kids got moderate to vigorous exercise for about half of the practice, about a half hour was spend standing around. we are talking about kid who is play sports. 16% of american children are obese and 31% are overweight. the bottom line is this. organized sports are not enough to keep the 44 million kid who is play fit and active. no need to pull the kids out of the sports. keep them in soccer or volleyball or whatever they enjoy. they get a benefit, but talk to

the coaches on focussing on participation rather than competition. if they are competing to win, a lot of kids are sitting on the bench as diwhen i was a kid. try to get them more active. incorporate fitness and exercise into family life and chase them around the park or go cycling with the older kids or go for a jog. that is the key in getting them fit and meeting the 60 minutes of recommended exercise per day as put out by the american act of pediatrics. in campbell, chris sanchez, today in the bay. >> we have to get active and do it together. john elway is getting a new job with the broncos. the first priority might be to return to his alma mater, stanford, and steal the head coach. the broncos name elway as the head of football operations. part of his job will be to find a new head coach. elway will be in miami tonight to scout the stanford head coach. he is there getting ready.

he played football and baseball. he is in demand for several open coaching jobs in the nfl as well as returning to his alma mater at the university of michigan. what's happening off the field? on the field they will take on virginia tech hokies. it is stanford's first trip ever to the orange bowl. they are slight favorites and the kickoff is slated for just after 5:00 in the bay area. garage thigh will have coverage tonight at 11:00. stanford has not won a bowl game since beating michigan state in the sun bowl in 1996. >> the people of miami have been warned the stanford band is in town. the herald had an article with the most outrageous marching band in the land struts into miami. notre dame has banned them from the campus along with dubious moments in history and said the performances have been raised irish, mormons and ann lander who is wrote an advice column

demanding that stanford suspend them. >> the city leaders plan to call a meeting to determine what to do to two apartment buildings that are dangling over a cliff. they are waiting for the two apartment buildings to decide what to do with the property. they could abandon them or build a sea wall or try another way to secure the buildings. the buildings are on private property, but the city is obligated to protect beachgoers and public infrastructure. one of the most corrupt presidents of modern time is what incoming house chair darrell issa once said about president obama. now he is clarifying the remarks. >> in saying this was one of the most corrupt administrations which is what i meant to say, when you handout $1 trillion in t.a.r.p. before the president came in, most of it unspent, $1 trillion in stimulus that this president asked for plus this

huge expansion in health care and government. it has a corrupting effect. when i look at waste, fraud, and abuse in the bureaucracy and the government, this is like steroids to pump up the muscles of waste. >> he is a southern california republican. he admitted that congress shares some of the blame for what the obama administration has done. >> 6:37 and we will have a run down of today's inaugurations. controversial videos making waves within the navy. we will show you why in a live report. >> a few celebrities starting the year in rehab and others getting out. if you are sick of the rain, we have good news for you. looks like a long stretch of fair weather. how long it will last in the complete forecast.

further over closer to the bay bridge, we don't have as much of a slow down. compared to last week-it's not so bad. a little slowing over the span. i have not marked that because there no lights turned on. they are right here coming through emeryville and the light flow should keep things off for a little while. we have a live look to see how things are shaping up. we see a steady flow. the back up i had earlier was because the cash lanes are closed. again, no metering lights. sunol as well and 680. no slowing south out of the area into fremont. we see a smooth drive. the top of the hill looks like fog is not an issue. >> we are getting a bit of a break with the fog. good morning to you. we have a little bit reported in the novato area. a mile visibility or better here. take it easy out there.

anti-gay slurs. they were produced with the okay of the number two officer on board at the time. they are now the kmonding officer of the uss enterprise. he is a big part of the naval investigation as to whether or not the content was appropriate and whether or not he should have been promoted after spearheading the effort to do the videos. in fact appearing in some of them. the navy said they were clearly inappropriate and they don't condone the type of behavior or the production. they were not created for the purpose of offending. they were supposed to be instructional tools with a funny twist. all of that now will be considered as part of the navy investigation. laura? >> amazing what the videos show. thank you very much. >> big changes for one east bay city. the first woman and first asian american takes over as oakland's mayor. christie smith is live where the historic inauguration will happen. christie? >> good morning.

sell you the 72-watt halogen bulb. that puts out the same amount of light as the 100 watt and even costs about the same to purchase. as you can tell-uses less energy. the energy estimates that they will save over $35 million a year in terms of lower electricity bills and cut down on fossil fuels. you are still allowed to use the 100 waus at home. no one is going to knock on your door from the light bulb police, but you won't be able to buy them now. this new law went into effect until the remaining ones on the shelves are sold. this new standard was established under the federal energy and security act of 2007. you might be wondering about the federal law. shouldn't all the other states be required to comply? no, that wasn't going into effect until next year. those two states asked for permission to enact now, a year

prior to the other 48 states. by this time next year, everybody will be required to be on the 72-watt bulbs and not the 100 watt incandescent. the technology has been around for over 100 years now. >> did you know bob can do the light bulb. >> 6:54 and hundreds of high school students took part in an experiment that had them living like they were in the strange and far off time of 1995. >> scott will tell us how it worked. >> teacher in shoreline, washington came up with the idea. one week and 600 schools couldn't text or facebook or e-mail. the theme of the experiment, what life was like in 1995. they had to talk to each other face-to-face over over the phone. students say before the experiment, some of them had never talked to each other on the phone. one 17-year-old said he found

out his friends were not very good conversationalists. they found themselves exercising more as well. students from both schools are compiling the results of the experiment with confessional videos. they hope to turn them into a documentary film. >> wall street 2010 turned out to be good overall. the dow industrials were higher and nasdaq up 17% on the first day of trading. dow industrials 114 to the positive nasdaq up 35. goldman sachs invested a half billion dollars in facebook. it gives facebook an overall value of $50 billion. this cash will be property buying and we hope jobs as well. back to you. >> it will be interesting. the new trend for the new year is people will get sick of social networks. we shall see. >> what shall they do with their time? >> face-to-face? >> that is crazy.
