backhoe. last thursday a pinhole sized leak along the seem line in palo alto. that section installed in 1947. certainly an older pipeline, that critics say is a big problem. now this line, line 1 # 2. it runs between san francisco. it's the same one that exploded in san bruno in september of last year. it killed eight people, destroying 38 homes. prior to that they test the lines often. because it cost too much money. since then they test 150 miles of test line by the end of this yea year. >> the whole point is to get in there, make repairs, make the system stronger. >> they are planning to replace

the ruptured portion of pipeline here at woodlied later this morning. they'll continue testing throughout the state for the end of this month. then they'll shut down once it gets cold out. >> a lot of pressure to keep the things safe and tight. thank you very much. >> it is 6:03. police are looking like this. the girl says the attack happened before 6:00 on saturday night. on a secluded footpath near interstate 680 after she let the man use her cell phone. they were in east san jose when the man approached. thfriend walked away as the man used the phone. when she returned, she couldn't find the girl. this morning, flowers, candles and balloons at the site where a teenager girl was killed in a drive-by shooting in morgan

street movement in that decreases are being made that only benefit a few. they are upset with higher fees. leaders are saying really they're not with this one 1%. they didn't get a big bailout like some banks. instead their state funding was cut drastically and could shrink more this year. this walkout will be brief. only a couple of hours. at 10 csu campuses. it start this is morning at san francisco state. then a dozen more tomorrow including san jose state and cal state east bay in hayward. >> several say the occupy protest could force them to close for good. building owners in the area say they will not renew the leases because of the protests. she thinks protests that turned

petition this. now this remains in limbo. voters could decide the fate of pot clubs in san jose. so their hope is that lawsuit. medical marijuana advocates will be in san francisco to announce the details surrounding the lawsuit. that's happening at an 11:00 press conference. >> thanks for the latest, marla. it's 6:19. the next chapter in a sexual abuse scandal will play out today. they will be arraigned on personal charges. the school's athletic director are accused of lying to a grand jury. they're accused of not reporting suspected cases of child abuse that couch is jerry sandusky is accused of abusing eight boys over a 15-year period. he left his position at the university in 1999. prosecutors cleared a legendary

sunday. but it underlies the wor think they're feeling about the safety of pipelines. bob redell joins us live with more. >> it created a little bit of a mess. we're on 280 northbound here on wood side. you'll be able to see where the water came down yesterday afternoon. british test on this line. this is when they purged the gas from the line and pressurize it with water instead. utility said the line ruptures from dents in the line. right now there are workers up there.

we understand they replacing that this morning. last thursday they revealed a pin-hole sized hole on the same line. critics say it's a big part of the problem. they're relying on older lines. this line, line 132. a 24-inch gas transmission line that runs through san francisco is the same one that exploded in san bruno in september of last year. killing eight people, destroying 38 homes. since the disaster they stated the goal is to test 150 miles of transmission lines by the end of the year. >> the whole point is to identify weaknesses in the pipe. make repairs. make the systems stronger.

so we understand they plan on replacing this morning. the testing would thenen continue, but only through the end of this month. the colder month of december and january, they'll hold off on that. bob redell. laura, jon? >> the man shot by a santa clara county sheriff's deputy is expected in court to enter a plea. the deputy stopped kevin on steven's creek boulevard in cupertino in august for acting suspiciously. he tried to run and turned and pointed a gun at the deputy. some possible bumps in the road for bay area college students. that's because professors and lectures are staging their own version of the occupy protest.

christie smith is live with why they're taking a stand. everyone is talking about being upset with the 1%. now it includes professors and lectures in the csu system. thaer going to briefly walk out of classes today and tomorrow. they're upset with who is running the university system. they're saying that students understand this, and they're upset, too, with higher fees. tuition jumped 23%. the enrollment is reduced. so this jump starts a system wide strike that the faculty hopes to stage on november 17th to protest a decision to cancel scheduled raids by chancellor reed. some students and faculty feel the decision is in line with those at the occupy wall street movement is fighting about. the university is say iing they are hardly the 1%.

they got no bailouts. instead they suppressed the funds by $650 million. there could be more cuts down the road. so what's happening is that professors plan to walk out at ten csu campuses today, including san francisco state and a dozen more tomorrow including east bay at 7:30. followed by san jose state at 9:00. reporting live in hayward, i'm christie smith. jon and laura, back to you. >> christi, thank you very much. members of occupy santa cruz will take over the steps of city hall this afternoon. they're upset about a permit issued by the city on friday that holds protest organizers accountable for drinking, drug use and sanitation problems in the park where they are camped. the permit orders protesters to remove their tents and clean up the park by november 16th. it also orders them to pay for toilets for the campers and the metered spots on the streets the

toilets are located in. election day is tomorrow in san francisco. many voters are still confused by new ballots and the number of candidates. there's 16 candidates and political experiments predict one is likely to get the majority of first choice votes. so there could be multiple rounds. and candidates have their own concerns. the main thing is the confusion that the primary choice might be diluted somehow. that confusion bothers me. it bothers the other candidates, too. >> we have a huge number of folks undecided. many aren't aware there's an election on tuesday. so youed a voting to that. it adds to the confusion. >> rank choice voting critics point to what happened in oakland's last race for mayor. don perata received more first-choice votes than quan. but she won the race. >> confusion on election day.

the question also begs to be asked, what kind of weather will be have out there when people are casting the votes? >> you want the good weather so more people turn out. well, always you can vote early as well. that's what i like to do. fog is looking good this morning. you have to worry about what the weather will hold. we don't have rain until late thursday. another system on sunday. this morning our major concern is the fog. the fog really settles in on the inland valleys. crystal clear in oakland and san francisco. napa valley is socked in with fog just a half mile here. and santa rosa, a mile and a quarter. so we're looking okay so far. high pressure. what's happening is it's moving in for a couple of days only as it continues to push towards us. it's going to keep your temperatures nice and mild.

you as a result, as a commuter, could lose visibility on 680 and 580 this morning. mike inouye is watching that closely. he has a report in ha moment. mild condition ls for today. mostly sunny later on. by tomorrow we have coastal fog. it's going to return and hang around all day long. late week showers move back in. 60 in fremont. coming up in the next report, i'll tell you when the showers are expected to hit your doorstep. what that means for the sierra nevada. 6:38 first as promised. let's get to the drive with mike. >> thank you, christina. still stay. look. 580 is slow. creeping down. really jammed through livermore. potential for patchy fog. live look at sunol. this is another issue we're

talking about. slower speeds. there's an accident clearing where you can't see the roadway southbound. much different for this live shot. we'll end with this as traffic moves smoothly. easy until you get to the toll plaza with the backup past west grand avenue. >> thanks for the update. >> it is 6:39. a new lawsuit in the works to stop the crack down. on medical marijuana dispensaries in the state. details coming up in a live report. and the new week for herman cain, but he's dealing with the same problems. what he's now saying and not saying in a live report from washington.

one year from today we'll be talking about whether president barack obama won re-election or if there's a republican back in the white house. during the same time we can expect several twists and turns and the endless allegations. the latest involved gop front-runner herman cain is taking on water as a result the of sexual harassment claims. is the story ultimately hurting the cain campaign? >> if you look at latest poll, she's lost about 9% support over the last week with republicans. about 5% overall, and more than half of the polls believe that

the allegations are true. so that's one side of the story. the other side of the story is cain's campaign is raising more money than ever, $2 million just in the last week since all of this broke. compare that to over $2.8 million that they raised all of last summer. clearly it's bringing a lot of attention to cain. how is he dealing with it? he doesn't want to deal with it anymore. over the weekend he said, look, i don't want to answer any more questions. i'm done with this. we're putting it to bed. we're getting back on message. clearly it's had some impact. not very clear how much impact at this point. a lot of those fund-raisers by the way are people who gave very small amounts. other than michele bachmann, he is the leader on the republican side in terms of small donations. it's going to take big ones, too. >> thank you for the report.

>> it's 6:43 right now. see who is taking on the feds about the crackdown. i've got nothing against these do-it-yourself

steam-cleaning enthusiasts. it's good for the customer to get to know their own carpet. and spending the day moving furniture and lugging around a hot water extraction unit can be a rush! i know. that's why i'm carpet for life. but look, if things get out of hand, and the place starts smelling like wet gym sock, there's no shame in calling a professional. i respect you for trying. ♪call 1-800-steemer.
