given a travel advisory. it will drift through the area, but it's smooth traffic showing a 19-minute drive. a toll plaza live look shows a light volume of traffic. 6:00 a.m. and sparsely populated. we will watch the metering lights after 6:30 this morning if things go as they are now. back to you. >> thanks, mike. new this morning, 1400 more u.s. marines are headed to the frontlines in afghanistan and that could double according to the wurm. robert gates is making the move because the taliban is expected to begin an offensive this spring. the first set of marines could end this month. president obama has ordered commanders to start pulling out of afghanistan starting in july. >> police are looking for more possible victims of the 60-year-old man accused of abusing a little girl in a daycare. police arrested campos and say

his family ran the daycare for more than 10 years. he was arrested on lewd and lascivious acts on a child and looking into other victims. a new sketch could help students find an attacker at stanford. a man attacked about 6:30 as i woman was walking near us drive and sarah street. the man came from behind and tried to grab her. students are now advised to walk in groups and stay on designated paths and sidewalks. we will follow the story and bring you new updates we might get. the man accused of raping jaycee dugard and keeping her captive for 18 years is expected in court. the judge and earns in the case are expected to question potential jurors. they are asking the judge for access to a psychiatric interview with phillip garrido. the judge sealed the tapes until

francisco 49ers and the oakland a's are possibly going to move down to the south bay. what complicates the moves is a lack of a venue. they cost lots of money and a franchise is a different story. there is a venue right behind me at the hp pavilion. you may not realize, but the city came to an understanding with the owners of the hp pavilion. if a franchise were to move, they would be open to having the team play here and share the space with the san jose sharks. the hockey team. yesterday the city councilman said the path is clear for an nba team to move to san jose and the sharks said we would welcome the opportunity to discuss an nba franchise moving here. the next question, will the oracle ceo will be able to get his hands on the new orleans hornets? he denied offering $450 million

for the team saying it was $350 million, but he was outbid by the nba. no secret he wants a franchise. he tried to buy the golden state warriors who play at the oracle arena. the warriors did play the hornets yesterday and beat them. experts think a move to san jose makes sense. there is few corporate sponsorshi sponsorships. that could change given the presence of the companies and san jose is part of a bigger tv market that would bring in more revenue. live in san jose, bob redell, today in the bay. >> interesting. thanks, bob. >> the courtship looks to have hit about a $7 million snag. that's how much the miami dolphins are ready to afr him to coach their team. the dolphins owner is in the bay area already. he will reportedly meet today.
