studio. so it really, the ipad really helped make "cars 2" happen. >> i'm curious on an opening weekend like today. you get nervous waiting for the numbers? what is the next 24 hours like? are you going toing up at midnight? >> it's funny, the first number we get a call from, disney calls with the numbers from guam. and it's like our tradition. we hear the guam numbers. they are across the date line so it opens there first. then we start getting the numbers this afternoon and then tomorrow morning they will call me with the numbers for friday. and it's so exciting. it's nerve-racking because you're like we worked on this movie for three years here. we love this movie. pixar is so invested, these are like children of ours. you want it to do well. >> you go in and watch it? >> yes. >> which theater? what time? >> i have one tradition. on opening day.

that's when i decided to take it easy, so i took up hang gliding. [ female announcer ] a grandpa who refuses to grow up. [ eves ] the pain was bad, but the thought of not being a hang glider pilot was worse. [ female announcer ] that's when eves turned to sutter health's palo alto medical foundation.

later this morning. they say this is racial profiling plain and simple. you have an african-american student thrown off a plane, wearing saggy pants. another passenger, same airline, was apparently allowed to board in a tube top and heels with no problem. the student is 20-year-old deshon marman, he is a football player from san francisco. he was thrown off after u.s. airways flight over a dispute over his saggy pants. police say he refused an employee's request to pull up his pants. the naacp suggests racial profiling. photos surfaced of another passenger on a u.s. airways flight, a man who grabbed a lot of attention. one passenger says what she saw looked like something a female stripper would wear. when she heard what happened to

marman she called foul. >> it was so hypocritical for the airline to allow this man who was obviously exposing so much flesh, deshon marman looked like he was dressed for church compared to the man on my flight. deshon was not exposing any of his flesh. i understand he was exposing his underwear. >> reporter: the naacp says when asked the airline said that it really has no dress code so if that's the case why was marman arrested? is it profiling or failing to follow an employees request? the naacp is joining with mar man's mom. they are holding a public forum on sunday at jones methodist church in san francisco. reporting live, christie smith, today in the bay. >> thank you. 6:34. police are searching for a gunman who shot and killed

someone in oakland. that shooting happened around 9:00 last night on 24th near add align street. so few details. police don't have information on a suspect. this morning the faa and the national transportation safety board will continue investigating the crash of a small plane close to palo alto's airport. the single engine cessna crashed last night in the palo alto bay lands. the plane originated in concord with three men on board. all of them walked away from the crash. one complained of back pain. witnesses say the plane crashed nose first, then flipped. the plane was fully intact so the men were able to get out. >> san francisco begins celebrating gay pride with its pride march. the march ironically comes at a time when the city's district

attorney decries a judge's decision not to pursue felony hate crimes against two men accused of assaulting a transgender woman. the men beat and robbed the woman two months ago. days later at a rally against violence the victim told bay area news that the men called her for mo phobic names saying they hated men who dressed like women. the d.a. says it's not enough and he will file felony charges. >> i think it sends a different message. i'm puzzled why the judge did one and not the other. it's important to send a message that they will be protected. >> a misdemeanor conviction can lead to one year in county jail, while a felony conviction can lead to one to three years in prison. >> the proposed high speed rail system got a huge boost from the

federal government yesterday. the department of transportation granted the california high speed rail authority 16 million to install the technology and control train to monitor the train activity from san francisco to san jose. caltrain is putting $4 million into the project to help avoid train versus train accidents like one in 2008 where 25 people were killed in southern california. better news, the forecast. >> not as hot as that red looks on you. i'll tell you that much. good morning to you. we're looking good this morning. a little bit of low cloud cover. look what's helping us out. this american flag. a little wind that's going to help clear out a little coastal tag. throughout the day i don't think it's going to hang around as long in san francisco. i think by noon a break up of the cloud cover.

mild conditions. by 4:00 p.m. 65 in the city. certainly comfy. as we head through the next couple of days we stay mild. 78 in san jose. 79 in santa rosa. if you will be headed up to sonoma for the race thismond we have great weather both days. saturday and sunday, right around 80, light winds. you want the sun screen. very high uv index. 78 degrees, not bad in the south bay. let's see how the drive is shaping up. >> so far so light. most of the bay area. we had an issue away from 101 over toward the high rise. disabled vehicle. an suv pulling a boat has been removed so now things are moving and that's away from the peninsula. in the area, san mateo looks smooth, folks at the speed limit. chp is watching out there. a live look at the san mateo

bridge. the span moves nicely. on the right, that's westbound, no disturbance off 880 and to the peninsula. this is the bay bridge where the metering lights have been on about 20 minutes. look at that, clear as a bell approaching the very end. just we're seeing slowing at the tolls. >> that's why you sometimes call it friday light. thank you very much. 6:39. there is good news coming in for bay area employers. see how many of them are planning to hire. how are gas prices impacting your summer. find out how many could be skipping out on vacations. president obama seems to walk a fine line of the issue of gay marriage. we've got a live report from washington coming up next. sure, pulling the mold, mildew, and grime from

out of the porous caverns of grout takes the right tools, but it also takes a gentle, caring touch. before you can deep clean, you learn to get a feel for its trouble spots.

and hey, if you can't listen to grout, you can't truly know its wants...its needs...its dreams. ♪call 1-800-steemer.

>> welcome back. in politics this morning on the fence, last night president obama jumped head first into the controversy over same-sex marriage. he held his first fund-raiser for gay supporters in new york where lawmakers may be on the verge of making marriage there for gays legal. today in the bay's tracie potts is live in washington with how this politically touchy situation may affect the 2012 presidential campaign and election. good morning. >> good morning. that's the backdrop here and the supporters you mentioned spent the $1,250 a plate to hear the

president say i'm not quite where you want me to be. you can hear some people in the crowd yelling marriage, while he was speaking. they want him to fully endorse same-sex marriage nation wide for everyone and the president's done pretty much everything coming short of that. he endorses civil unions and benefits for same sex partners, he stressed as he spoke that he's repealed the ban on gays in the military and instructed the justice department not to defend the federal defense of marriage act but it's not enough for activists. we saw 30 of them protesting outside the meeting. plus more protests in albany in the state capital as new york lawmakers try to figure out if they are going to be the sixth state which of course now does not include california, but if they will be the sixth state and the largest now to support and to legalize gay marriage. there are some hang-ups with the writing in the legislation, in the wording in that. we could see a vote on that

today. >> interesting. thank you very much. there's also encouraging news on the local jobs front. a survey released by bay area council says 37% of all businesses with between 500 and 999 employees plan to hire more people in the next six months. 53% say they plan to keep the work force about the same, 13% are planning layoffs. broken down by counties, 46% of executives in san francisco county are planning staff increases. in santa clara county, 37%. 27% in alameda county. and contra costa county, 21%. >> summer has just arrived and there are some indications the economy has actually put the kibosh on a lot of travel plans. there could be a million less drivers on the road this fourth of july than last year. experts blame higher gas prices so vacationers are trying to

find you know, new ways to cut costs. they have difficult choices when deciding what to do. >> for a large percentage of people taking vacations they have cut back on other things to afford a vacation. >> survey those is that families are electing to do more stay indications, they are taking in great local attractions. like the giants they are welcoming the cleveland indians to tat tat park. the game starts at 7:15. last night timmy lincecum striking out 12 including six straight. nice. the arm was on fire. giants went on to win it 2-1. >> the a's play the phillies at 4:00. they lost to the mets 4-1. it was the second loss for the a's, they were on a winning streak. you know, the season is over for the cal bears baseball team. they lost to virginia 8-1.

for the bears, there will be a next year. cal almost cut that program but a $9 million fundraising effort, it saved the program in april so. good for them. the warriors picked up new members at the nba draft. they took klay thompson with the 11th pick, a shooting guard from washington state university. and the second round they got the draft rights to power forward jeremy tyler. they gabbed charles jenkins, a guard from hofstra university. not bad when it comes to the forecast as well. >> to see some of the sporting events, 65 degrees at 4:00 p.m. in the city. a little on the core side. if you live in the east bay or the south bay our temps close to 80 so it's going to be a picture perfect weekend.

"cars 2" hits theaters today. bob redell is live at pixar theaters with one of the producers. >> and look at this. a car is hitting highway 37, toward infineon, race activities going to tie this. the rest is moving.thlysmoothly. >> if you want to do bikes instead we'll have a bike gadget coming up. what happend last night?
