san francisco. >> take a look at san francisco. >> dramatic pause. >> kind of a dreary start to this sunday morning, but we do like to see that because that's what you see on the post cards when you buy them if you're a tourist. thanks for joining us on this sunday morning. i'm kris sanchez. look at the forecast. da has a >> you can see some of tse low clouds around san francisco this morning but we also have some high clouds that are over parts of the south bay this morning. you can see san jose right now 49 degrees. look at the temperatures, though, in the north bay. low 40s right now. we're starting to see what's left of the high clouds, already clearing out of the south bay. in the north bay where skies have cleared, that's the reason why temperares have dropped off. this is the outer fringe of a weather system that's bringing a lot of snow to the rockies. for us it's just bringing variable clouds. you're going to want a jacket as you head outside but by lunchtime we'll warm into the low 60s on our way to mid-60s for livermore out towards fairfield.

san francisco 62. 68 santa rosa, 63 in san jose. it should be just fine for the 49ers game coming up this afternoon, but the seven-day forecast has some rather winter-like changes ahead. we'll let you know if that will impact your drive back to work coming monday. the full forecast in a few minutes. we begin this morning with the occupy protest in oakland. the department put protesters on notice leave or get arrested. it is the second eviction notice in two days. as kimberly tere reports, protesters say they are ready for police action. >> reporter: occupy oakland is officially on notice. >> why would police want people to leave? this is protest for the police also. we are protesting in their behalf. >> reporter: while the city of oakland and police say they support free speech and the right to assemble, camping overnight in the park is illegal. protesters have received written notice to vacate.

>> so are you breaking the law? >> i really don't feel like i am. if the camp wasn't here, i'd be sleeping outside somewhere else by myself, not being safe, not being taken care of or looked out for. >> reporter: she said she's not going anywhere. she said occupy oakland has given her a sense of community and motivation to invoke change. >> we're enchanging with each other and finding there are a lot of things that we can do just by talking to each other. so i'm really broud proud of ev who comes down here. >> reporter: one protester showed us a ten-point plan. she said a group who has visited occupy camps came up with it. while she admits it's just one perspective, she said it's a plan, something occupy oakland needs. >> this is extremely important if we want to make steps forward and make real change because these people are staying, it's raining and cold.

>> that was kimberly tere reporting. across the bay two san francisco police officers were attacked as the occupy protests there turned somewhat violent. the officers were working separately trying to keep protesters from that i canning over an intersection near embarcadero and broadway. the first officer was attacked by a woman with what appeared to be a razor blade attached to a pencil. the woman reportedly fled back into the crowd after slashing the officer on the his hand. the other officer said his radio was stolen by a protester and when he tried to get it back, he was cut in the face. a week of stunning scandal in college football ended with an emotional gameday at penn state. penn state lost to nebraska, but the outcome on the field almost seemed like an afterthought. the nittany lions played for the first time since allegations of sexual abuse rocked the university. and for the first time in more than six decades, the team took the field without their legendary coach, joe paterno. the traditional dash to the field was replaced by a slow

walk. the players walking in arm in arm. there was a moment of silence in the stands and then after that a passionate prayer with both teams kneeling at midfield before kickoff. >> we're here for the victims, for what happened and to show that this isn't us. what happened, it's a select few people and it's not us. >> last week police charged former assistant coach jerry sandusky with sexually assaulting several boys over the course of a decade. the school board then fired coach joe paterno and the university president for not alerting police years ago after assistant coach mike mcqueary told paterno that he saw sandusky assaulting a boy in the locker room shower. hundreds of people gathered at paterno's house following the game in a show of support. the sex scandal at penn state is also prompting calls for tougher laws when it comes to reporting child sex abuse. former coach joe paterno appears to have complied with the legal requirements in pennsylvania in

telling the school's athletic director that he had heard that former coach jerry sandusky raped a boy in a shower on campus. pennsylvania law does not require teachers or coaches to report suspected child abuse directly to police. instead, the law says that school employees, quote, shall immediately notify the person in charge of the institution. a member of the pennsylvania legislature wants that loophole closed immediately. >> that those who witness sexual abuse or suspect that sexual abuse is occurring must report it to the police, if they are coaches, teachers or medical professionals. >> now, pennsylvania isn't the only state with that loophole. georgia, massachusetts, missouri, south dakota and virginia also have similar loopholes. some child safety advocates say that the law also shouldn't limit who must report abuse. they say all adults should be required to report abuse, no matter what their position. gone but not forgotten.

san francisco police will honor one of their own killed in the line of duty exactly 17 years ago today. officers will hold a memorial service for james gelf. a carjacking suspect shot and killed him on november 13th, 1994. at the time he was responding to a report of a man with a gun in the area of franklin and pine streets. when he arrived, the suspect opened fire and gelf was killed. a s.w.a.t. team killed the suspect shortly after. current and former police will meet at the shooting site at 6:30 tonight. that service is open to the public. we still have more ahead for you on "today in the bay." still to come, an unwelcome visit. a political group protests president barack obama's upcoming visit to indonesia. plus stanford/oregon highlights, lowlights, depends on who you ask. gaat went downpen egf ofocobaotllege football landscape this weekend. beth! fo

transamerica building in san francisco, we spent a little time in the city on thursday looking around at the sights. people were heading back home to the south bay and it was a very nice day, rob. >> probably the warmest day the next couple of weeks. >> it was beautiful. >> it was nice and warm on thursday, but then we saw the cooldown and the rain that arrived on friday. a few showers yesterday morning. now today the driest part of the veterans day weekend. right now 53 degrees, a little bit of low clouds and haze across the bay right now. you can see san jose actually still seeing high clouds drifting by. currently 50 degrees. in oakland, 51. hazy skies start off the morning and not much wind out there. temperatures in the north bay have dropped off a little low, 40s as we've gotten some clearing in parts of the north bay and high clouds still drifting off to the south. later on today we'll see northwesterly breezes picking up, especially around the north bay heading into the afternoon. so a few clouds to start. hazy sunshine for the afternoon. then partly cloudy. more sunshine today. areas especially around the

south bay will be a bit warmer as we wrap up the weekend and the workweek looks dry through wednesday and after that things are about to make a winter-like twist. coming up, 49ers taking on the giants. the one day in the bay area you do not cheer for the giants, the new york giants. 63 degrees, partly cloudy skies. it should be a gorgeous game. a little breezy later on. you can see high clouds across the south bay around morgan hill and gilroy, clearing already around the north bay. look at all the clouds off to the east. pretty powerful system there aiming in on the rockies. we're sitting on the outer fringe of this, which will filter the sun at times today with partly cloudy skies. meantime the storm track off to the north, at least for the first half of the week. so, yes, a dry start to the week. we'll see temperatures in the 60s for most of the bay area with hazy sunshine. 50s on the coast. then you notice monday, tuesday and wednesday, no worries about rain, 'uft that patchy fog for the morning. watch this trough of low

pressure. this will slip to the south. we will see rain coming back. by this time next weekend, much cooler air. at this point it looks like we could see snow levels maybe as low as 3,000 feet so imagine what that's going to do to our highs come next weekend. you'll see that coming up in the seven-day forecast. you can see highs for places like morgan hill. yesterday only 50s. today we should improve into the 60s this afternoon. 63 around san jose and there you see the north bay with a little bit of a north wind drying things out. bringing temperatures up to the mid-60s. tuesday should be the warmest day of the week with patchy fog. beginning thursday we'll probably see rain for the far north bay. friday rain pushes through and then saturday highs in the low to mid-50s and maybe snow near 3,000 feet so january-like conditions, possibly coming your w way. >> thanks. no matter what rob's forecast, it is a gloomy morning for stanford football fans. their dreams came crashing down

yesterday in an error-riddled game and to top it off the oregon ducks snapped the longest running winning streak in the country. the cardinal was outplayed and outrun. early fourth quarter, oregon up big, 36-23. lamichael james with the short touchdown run. the ducks in control, 43-23. then with less than 5:00 to go, stanford down 46-30, andrew luck passes to montgomery but it's picked off and returned. oregon beat stanford 53-30. the defeat eliminates third-ranked stanford from the national championship hunt. but the cardinal could still get an at-large berth into the bowl championship series. luck not looking at the happy. the cal bears much more golden as they took on the oregon state beavers at at&t park. 3-0 oregon state. maynard hits michael calvin for the 19-yard touchdown. second quarter maynard five

yards for the touchdown. cal takes a 14-6 halftime lead and goes on to win it 23-6. diane dwyer probably very happy this morning. the decision was controversial but manny pacquiao defeated juan marquez in las vegas. pacquiao scored an unpopular majority decision victory over his rival in the third fight of their trilogy last night at the mgm grand. with the decision the crowd erupted into boos. at one point before the decision was announced, marquez jumped onto the ropes with what he thought was a sure victory. san jose is digging into its past today and kids are invited to join in the expedition. dora the explorer, anyone? san jose is hosting a kids archaeology day at the peralta adobe which is the oldest building in san jose. it was built back in 1797.

targeted the tumor with a vaccine carrying her own healthy cells. >> reporter: janet was about to enter law school 11 years ago when doctors discovered she had brain cancer. >> horrible. i just felt horrible because i didn't know what to do next. >> reporter: then she met dr. linda at ucla who warned that although there were new treatments, the overy'aall prognosis was not good. >> the normal length for patients with what she had is about two years. >> reporter: the only chance for survival, a special vaccine and precise surgery. in this model of the brain, you can see where jennifer's tumor was initially. right along the temporal and frontal area, right where the speech areas are. during the surgery, the surgeons kept jennifer awake as dr. keith black did on this other patient. that way they could remove the tumor without affecting normal

brain tissue. >> he woke me up and shaking me. she was checking me to see if i could talk. i could talk. he's like that's great. >> reporter: as a result, some of the tumor remained after surgery. it was time for the vaccine. >> a treatment that's made from the patient's own tumor cells and her own immune cells. we combine the immune cells with the tumor cells in order to create a way to enhance the patient's response against the tumor. >> reporter: when injected back into the patient, the immune cells attack the tumor and hopefully remove it completely. a few months after surgery, an mri of jennifer's brain showed no cancer at all. >> i think her spirit and attitude have played well. >> reporter: now 11 years after surgery, jennifer is among the longest living brain cancer survivors in the country. >> now i see life as it is and i live life as it is, in the moment. i put effort in, you know.

i have patience, i have gratitude, i have all these things that i probably would never have seen ever before. you don't have the past, so don't live in the past. you don't have the future, so don't live in the future. just live your life for right now because that's all you've got. >> if you're a bit out of sorts this morning, you might want to look to a higher power. a new study says that attending religious services on a regular basis can help improve your outlook on life. researchers in manhattan analyzed surveys completed by a diverse group of 90,000 women. they found those who frequently attended service were 57% more likely to have an optimistic outlook on life than those who never went to religious services. they were also less likely to be depressed. outside experts say people who are optimistic may be more likely to believe in the divine. if you want to turn back the hands of time, there is a new alternative to botox.

ziomen is the latest product that promises to get rid of the unwanted wrinkles. the difference, though, there are no additives. that means you are less likely to build up an immunity like you can with other injectables which makes them less effective. >> you look at the science behind the product and it is another alternative for us to use in patients that maybe didn't think they didn't get as good a response from the other products. >> xeomin takes a week for it to take effect. the new face fix lasts anywhere from three to six months. pricewise it's comparable accounts between $400 and $600, but now that there's more competition on the cost of injectabl injectables, that could all be affected and maybe the prices will drop. we'll see. an unusual tourist attraction in romainiaromania. tourists are flocking to a small town because of a salt mine.

the mine itself has been a major point of interest for decades, especially in the summer. now visitors can take a bus through the tunnel to the heart of the salt mountain and then walk in further on foot. the temperature is always just about 60 degrees all year round. people suffering from respiratory problems sometimes visit the mine for treatment. the air is considered good for the health and people often make daily trips to breathe it in and do exercises while they're there. we still have more ahead for you on "today in the bay." coming up, the creepy crawly bug that's behind a $100,000 lawsuit against an airline. plus the latest overnight developments in the oakland occupy movement. speculation that police may move in at any time. plus, a big rig accident overnight on a major freeway. weay'lre shway. we'll owsh you what happened. y

good morning to you. looking live at a pretty start to this sunday morning. a little breezy there in san francisco, but a nice day all around the bay area. thanks for joining us this morning, i'm kris sanchez along with meteorologist rob mayeda who says game time forecast -- >> 60s. not too bad. in fact we still have some clouds kind of clearing out of the south bay right now. we should see 40s probably through about 8:00 this morning, and then around lunchtime as you start tailgating out there for the 49ers/giants game coming up this afternoon, we will see low 60s and eventually mid to upper 60s inland. i think one of the biggest warmups will be places like gilroy and morgan hill which yesterday only in the 50s, so that will be a decent warmup. low to mid-60s south of san jose. but on the satellite view we've got a storm that is passing us by to the east, but the long-range forecast is going to bring that jetstream right back down to the bay area and we'll show you when we're expecting our next round of rain to come back. your seven-day forecast coming up just a few minutes from now. to oakland now where the

occupy encampment is still in place despite speculation among campers that police may move in at any time. police issued two eviction notices in the past two days asking protesters to leave and then threatening arrests for the ones who don't. protesters say the last time eviction notices came out, it was three days before police tore down that encampment. violence erupted and police threw tear gas into the crowd. the city says it is illegal to camp overnight but many protesters have vowed not to go. >> stressful, but all you can do is to be prepared and to be well organized and take care of each other really. and we know that if they evict us, we're just going to come back. we're not stopping. >> sources say police will be going in to break up this encampment soon. we have seen police in the area, although our reporters say not as heavy a presence overnight. an emotional day at the penn state campus where the football team took the field for the first time since allegations

surfaced of sexual abuse at the school. jay gray reports on the game and the investigation. >> reporter: it was clear early this would be anything but a normal saturday in happy valley. >> it's like the level of excitement is very muted. we were talking earlier, we feel like there's a sense of mourning, that everything we knew before has gone. >> reporter: the usually raucous pregame at penn state shifted to a show of respect for the victims of the alleged sexual assaults on campus. >> we're here for the victims, for what happened, and to show that this isn't us. what happened, it's a select few people and it's not us. >> reporter: a show of unity that continued inside the stadium. the traditional dash to the field replaced by a slow walk, the players locked arm in arm, without joe paterno. there was a moment of silence in the stands and a passionate prayer with both teams kneeling at midfield before kickoff.

the game seemed almost an afterthought early. in the end a last-second comeback by the nittany lions calling short. >> i was awfully proud. we got down 17-0. they didn't quit, they hung tough. they hung in there together. >> reporter: the loss on the field nothing compared to what this community has lost and what's still to come. the emotions of the week spilling over for paterno's son, jay, a penn state assistant. >> dad, i wish you were here. we love you. >> reporter: a love that stretched from the stadium to his home. hundreds gathering there after the game. >> and that was jay gray reporting. an overturned big rig is backing up traffic in both directions on highway 101 in menlo park and it could mean big problems for people driving to the 49ers home game this afternoon. the big rig overturned about 2:30 this morning on southbound highway 101 near the willow road exit. right now it's sitting right in the center divide. one lane is open in each direction. the california highway patrol estimates that the accident will

be cleared around noon. so that means if you are heading to that 1:00 49ers game, you might want to take a different route. in union city police are searching for a driver who hit a bicyclist and then just drove off. this happened just before 5:00 yesterday morning. the bicyclist was struck by a vehicle headed northbound on mission boulevard near dakota road. when officers arrived, they found the bicyclist with life-threatening injuries. he was taken to an east bay hospital for emergency surgery. anyone with information who might have witnessed this crash is urged to call police. dozens of people showed up at san francisco international airport responding to a call from a filipino immigrant who had to meet with federal agents at the airport to talk about his deportation. jose librojo released this youtube video urging people to help him protest his deportat n deportation. federal agents did not take action last night, but his destiny is still quite uncertain. he may still have to leave or

move to a detention center. his supporters say that he came to the united states lawfully when he was a child. he graduated from west moore high school in daly city and earned a degree in biology from san francisco state. he said he is authorized to work here and has two jobs and recently got married. >> and this is america, what i consider home. and i'm leaving america. so, you know, i don't want to leave, but i have to, you know. i don't know what's going to happen next for me. >> when he came, he was here on a political asylum visa. he has filed a deportation appeal. also he has reached out to elected officials, including barbara boxer, for help in resolving his case. an oakland neighborhood hit hard by burglars is fighting back to keep their homes safe. this is a surveillance camera program in the mount claire neighborhood. the neighborhood group is launching the program and says

more than 100 people have already registered to use those cameras. the cameras send out e-mail alerts when there is motion on the property. the group says they are sending a clear message to burglars. >> the community is armed with cameras, but don't mess with us because chances are you're going to be on tape and prosecuted. >> the event was organized by the safety and improvement council when includes members of the oakland police department and the camera's maker, which is logitech. a north carolina couple is suing air tran airways claiming that they were tormented by caulk roachcockroaches on a rec flight. they say flight attendants ignored the insect invasion. the couple is seeking $100,000 in damages. the airline says cleanliness is important and airplanes are regularly treated for bugs.

and we are looking live at oakland this morning where the raiders are taking a day off because they played on thursday. if you need to get your football fix, you can watch the 49ers take on the giants at at&t park. i know it's not the same if you're a raider fan, but football is football, right? the latest state budget projections shows that state revenues are $1.5 billion less than expected for the current fiscal year and at this rate california could be at least $4 billion below the target that they need to make by june 30th. for more, let's bring in larry gerston. let's talk about why this is a problem. i have to say, i think it's about trigger cuts, right? >> no question, they're coming. don't shoot the messenger, that's all i have to say. look, we're looking at a growing possibility here of a fuj financial headache for the state. the current budget as we mentioned is based on projected revenues of $4 billion higher

than anybody expected. the legislative analysts expected, than anybody else in the legislature thought would actually occur, but the legislature anyway decided to pass it. why? because they made provisions for major reductions, spending reductions, if shortfalls take place. so with that pattern of lower revenues, they have taken hold. it's not just a monthly thing, we've got a whole series here of several months in a row. >> if we missed the target by this much, these trigger cuts kick in. >> yeah. >> we're talking about a lot of cuts, to education, as we've talked about in recent weeks because a big chunk of the budget goes towards education. >> yeah, half of it when you think of k-12 and higher ed, half the budget goes for education. so here's where we're going to go. it's a triggering mechanism. if revenues bafall $1 billion, e university of california and csu, each will lose another $100

million. i say another $100 million because already this year between the two of them, they lost more than $1 billion. so these are cuts on top of cuts. and then we're talking about programs servicing developmental disabilities, in-home support services, you know, the folks who really can't get out, really terribly infirm. we're talking about $100 million in each of those programs and the list goes on. so those who are suffering the most are going to suffer even more because they are just running out of places to cut. >> so how do we get out of this? i know that the democrats will say we need to raise taxes, republicans say we need to cut more. what is the solution here? >> well, that's the important question. the fact of the matter is because this mess didn't have to occur anyway, it didn't have to occur, it goes back to negotiations last spring. at that time the legislative democrats and republicans were just arguing over what should be done. democrats wanted to raise taxes to keep programs and services like the ones we've been

discussing actually in place. republicans were against raising taxes and said we're okay with cutting these things, we're spending too much, that's all there is to it. people forget, public opinion sided with the idea of no more taxes. we need to remember that. so the best the legislature could do was pass this budget that everybody knew was really unrealistic. it just wasn't realistic. and so with that, you've got these cuts and these cuts are really going to be hurting. >> now, let me ask you this, on a related note, isn't this what's happening in washington too? we had that supercommittee of 12 that are supposed to be coming up with a debt reduction plan. they're in the same pickle, right? >> they have got ten days. the only difference is if they don't come up with a plan, the cuts will be mandatory. they have got to come up with about $1.5 trillion in cuts. bear this in mind, kris, it's not only the $1 billion in cuts we're looking at in california, if it gets to be $2 billion or more, then we're talking about

shorter school years of seven days. already we have the fourth lowest amount of days required in the country. this will make us number 50. >> thank you very much, larry. you can get more of larry's political insight any time of day, nbcbayarea.com. just do a search for prop zero, that's the name of larry's blog. criticism of president obama's foreign policy was the common thread in this weekend's republican presidential debate in south carolina. last night mitt romney pledged that he would prevent iran from developing a nuclear weapon by military means, if necessary. herman cain said that the arab spring had gone too far with strong allies in the war against terrorism falling by the wayside. and romney accused president obama of political motivations in his timetable for drawing down u.s. combat forces in afghanistan. but perhaps the sharpest disagreement came over water boarding. >> i agree that it was an

enhanced interrogation technique. >> and that you would support it as president? you would return to that policy? >> yes. >> well, waterboarding is torture and many other things. it's illegal under international law and under our law. it's also immoral and it's also very impractical. >> on a lighter note, rick perry poked a bit of fun at his now in famous gaffe from wednesday night. the next presidential debate is scheduled for two days before thanksgiving and will focus on foreign affairs. italy's president began work to form a new government to help save that country from financial disaster. this comes a day after sill vee o'berlusconi resigned as the prime minister. for years he seemed untouchable. he had been in court 2500 times by his own count accused of attempting to bribe a judge, corruption and abuse of power and there were also many sex scandals as well.

ultimately berlusconi was brought down by italy's economic crisis. last week italy's borrowing rate soared, putting more pressure on the prime minister to step down. protesters shouted insults until word came that berlusconi had resigned. at that point there were celebrations in the streets. >> we're happy because we're free. we want a leader who is serious, who represents us. [ speaking foreign language ] >> berlusconi's resignation makes way for an emergency government that italians and the eu hope will save them from financial ruin. much more ahead on "today in the bay." still to come, a nice hotel for $20 a night in san francisco. pray tell where, larry says. we'll show you where you can score big in the travel bargains. and you're looking live around san francisco where we've got the urbanathlon going on this morning. a little chilly outside but the afternoon will be a bit warmer than yesterday.

good sunday morning to you. we're watching a swiss cheese of some sun mixed with some clouds right now across the bay. you can see the low clouds kind of winning the story right now, but as we head through the afternoon we get a little more of a northwest breeze that will mix in drier air and clear out our skies. a cool start to the morning, though. you'll need a jacket through 9:00 or 10:00 this morning. 40s to some 50s outside, not much wind but the wind direction should change like we're seeing in nevada right now. northwest breezes, which will dry out our skies and give us a little more sunshine than we saw yesterday. areas of clouds to start. we should see partly cloudy skies this afternoon, temperatures from most places inland making a run at the mid-60s, upper 50s closer to the coast. the first half of the week looks dry. the second half will look a lot like winter. game time forecast, 49ers and

giants out at candlestick park should see low 60s, partly cloudy skies, hazy sunshine as the game gets under way a little later on this afternoon. right now across the bay area, we've got patchy low clouds. earlier we had high clouds which are there are racing on by into southern california. very active pattern, but the jetstream or at least the part that would bring us some rain just a little further to the north from the bay area. so for the first half of the week, kind of like we're seeing today, we'll see no chances of showers. those will be way off to the north. 60s with hazy sunshine today and monday through wednesday, storm track still off to the north so the main issue to watch will be that patchy fog for the north and east bay valleys but eventually this cold trough of low pressure will swing through the bay area, starting thursday night into friday. so expect to see some rain as you wrap up the week friday into saturday, then much cooler air starts to drop on in with scattered showers and snow levels possibly as low as 3,000 or 4,000 feet. this is still a long ways off, given this is a seven-day forecast, but all indications

are another cold trough dropping out of the gulf of alaska. great news for the ski resorts, many of them getting kick started by this early season snow. around the bay area you'll see notices in the upper 60s out towards fairfield and santa rosa will get a northwest breeze kicking in for the afternoon. low 60s near san francisco, upper 50s around half moon bay and pacifica for the afternoon. 63 around san jose and morgan hill and gilroy should be out of the mid-50s like we had yesterday into the 60s for this afternoon. so the first half of the week is not too bad, typical fall weather. but then friday and saturday stay tuned, highs in the 50s, in and out of the showers, but really it's going to be the snow levels and maybe some frost advisories as we get out of the weekend if that cold air, air canada, coming through the bay area next weekend. >> i like to go to the gym and work out outside and it's getting a little hard in the morning. maybe the gym is not so bad. bargain hunters, we do have a great deal for you in the bay area this morning.

imagine playing less than $20 for a fabulous hotel room in san francisco. that's the deal at the galleria park hotel near union square which is part of the hotel's 100th anniversary celebration. for the second night you pay based on the year you were born. so if you were born in 1975, you pay $19.75. more than one month before christmas, austria is all aglow in holiday spirits. vien vienna's christmas market officially opened this weekend. it typically draws around three million people from around the world, features more than 100 shops with a variety of food and drink. the market will be open until christmas day. and we want to take you back out to the urbanathlon. i'm fascinated by this because people do these obstacles. >> where'd they go? >> are they too fast? >> here they come. >> running is part of it. tire stutter step is one of

them. hurdles and at&t park stair climb. good luck to them. hope you get out and get some exercise today. we will see you back here next weekend. have a great week. ♪ [ male announcer ] we're not employers or employees. not white collar or blue collar or no collars. we are business in america. and every day we awake to the same challenges. but at prudential we're helping companies everywhere find new solutions to manage risk, capital and employee benefits, so american business can get on with business. ♪
