i'll talk more about that in the microclimate forecast. we are watching from the drizzle, the slicker roadways around the bay. point that out, as well as the crash we're tracking for the closure in fremont. good monday morning to you that thanks for joining us. i'm kris sanchez. >> i'm sack brock. later today, a protest in front of facebook headquarters. hundreds are upset about the use of fake names. >> bob is live in menlo park. the protesters say the policies can make them targets of violence or worse. >> reporter: they want to keep their anonymity. there will be protesters caravanning down from san francisco, down the peninsula to facebook headquarters here in menlo park. they're expected to arrive around 11:00 to protest the social media giant's policy

requiring people to register their legal name whenever they set up an account. now, this has been a problem for people like drag queens who want to go by their stage names, along with native americans and victims of domestic violence who want to remain anonymoanonymous. facebook says that's the point of requiring the legal names, it names users accountable and makes it different to commit fraud, harass or commit hate speech. both sides have met on more than one occasion. facebook did apologize at one point for closing the accounts of those who used pseudonyms. the company seemed to tweak its policy and allows people to use a fake name as long as they use a picture i.d. or birth certificate to verify their identi identity. this satisfied some protest, but not all of them. the people expected to protest this morning says the rule makes them a target of discrimination and bullying. they're expected to protest here

outside facebook headquarters around 11:00 this morning. reporting live here in menlo park. bob for "today in the bay." >> thanks, bob. happening today, the state department is trying to come up with a plan to rescue several americans being held against their will in yemen right now. the four u.s. citizens were taken prisoner and held in the capital city to have sanaa. the "washington post" reports that attempts to rescue those americans have failed so far. they are being held by the houthi rebel group. at home, a 4-year-old girl recovering from a head injury after falling from a second story window. firefighters say the girl was conscious and alert when they arrived at the apartment complex. just off of highway 4 in concord. she fell at least ten feet. she was rushed to children's hospital in oakland and her condition now is not known. >> it's a common theme this time of year when we leave the windows open. we are waiting to learn the names of the man and woman arrested after a tense yard to

yard search in the south bay. our cameras were there at the moment police officers handcu handcuffed the woman. the man was found hiding in a backyard near tully road and mclaughlin drive last night. the two tried to run over a police officers with their car and later rammed a patrol car with their car and took off. no officers were hurt. >> good news. a new class of drugs could be a game changer for treating terminal cancer. an international trial suggesting taking the two drugs at the same time can shrink tumors in 60% of patients. in some cases the tumors went away altogether, leaving some patients considered terminally i'll effective liquey lly cured. they destroyed deadly tumors. researchers say these show promise, especially in the might against melanoma and lung cancer. >> that would be a good thing. the fight over soda is

bubbling up. lawmakers in san francisco are going to talk about new proposals aimed at curbing the amount of sugary drinks we consume. stephanie chuang is live in our newsroom. the voters were asked to ban the drinks and it didn't work. what will happen this time? >> what's different is last year, it was a soda tax initiative that needed voter approval. this time it's not necessary. supervisors can pass it as part of an ordinance. makers of sugary drinks could be required to label their ads can warnings about obesity, diabetes and tooth decay. these warnings would have to take up 20% of the ad space. that is the same standard applied by the fda to tobacco warnings. this would apply to ads on sports sen views and billboards. a second idea would ban sugary drink adds on public property,

including busses and shelters. the last would ban the city and county of san francisco from spending money on sugary drinks altogether. the state beverage industry group says the leaders are demonizing the soda industry. milk-based products like lattes would be exempt from the labels despite containing as much sugar and calories as sodas. if the proposals pass, they'll go into effect in an ordinance 30 days after the mayor signs, or the supervisors can override if the mayor vetoes with 8 of 11 votes. it seems it's a bit of a local trend. it was one week ago that ucsf said it would phase out sugary drinks from its campuses, clinics and hospitals. that is set to begin july 1st. live in our san francisco newsroom, stephanie chuang, "today in the bay." another reason to watch the speeds around the city streets. san francisco could have more cameras to catch speeders.

the tcity looking at testing th cameras near schools and senior centers. >> some drivers feel they're being watched too much but others still the measure could save lives. >> speeding is the number one killer on san francisco streets. this excessive speeding has no place in our vibrant and growing city. camera enforcement is a great tool. >> supporters say that cities like new york have had great success with this kind of program. if you are in the south bay today, you may see some smoke hovering in the sky. firefighters say no need to worry or call 911 either. it's all on purpose. cal fire is doing its first of three burns in joseph grant park. there will be similar burns on wednesday and friday as well. time to check your microclimate forecast at 6:06.

a live look at the rain drops out there on the golden gate bridge. at least on the cameras. >> you say the bridge is out there. we have to trust you because we can't see it. meteorologist kari hall is here with a look at the forecast. in the a drought-busting amount of rain but we'll take it. >> indeed we'll take it. through the day, there will be clearing, a little rain in the forecast. later on this week, i'll talk about that. right now, it is 57 degrees on the south bay. partly cloudy skies. you can see the rain drops in san francisco. maybe even a couple of light showers later on this morning. for san francisco and the north bay with highs reaching 60 degrees this afternoon. san francisco, east bay, 76 degrees. also 76 degrees for the tri-valley, with mostly sunny skies. looking good for the start of the week. it does improve, as far as the chance of rain heading to the end of the week. it's been all clear this morning. no rain just yet.

it may not stay that way. there's a little bit of moisture streaming on shore. later on this morning, there could be some rain mainly for the north bay. san francisco, slight chance of shower. not a lot of rain there. any rain drops falling from the clouds will be a bit of help. into the rest of the week, here we are on saturday. the possibility of rain moving in with the remnants of a tropical system that will most likely bring some showers for southern california. will it make it here to the bay area? that will be the big question. something we'll be watching over the next few days. the microclimate forecast brings it up to 73 degrees today in los gatos. slight chance of shower. 63 degrees. for san francisco, the marina, 59 degrees. the forecast for north bay, 68 degrees for santa rosa and oaklaoa

oakland reaching 62 degrees. the tri-valley, it'll be a nice weekend. considering there will be a few showers possible. the temperatures trending a little cooler, especially for the east bay and san francisco. the peninsula reaching into the mid 70s. overall, more of this comfortable weather in the forecast. now, let's get a look at what's happening with sam and kris -- or mike. sorry. >> kari, i'm going to interrupt that dance. i want to talk about what you're talking about here. same thing i tell my kids. looks like a shower but it's not. your hair is dry. we'll look at this. the lens is a little wet but the rest of the air is all right. there's moisture in the air like kari is talking about. mist and drizzle. the showers are coming through the area, but not just yet for the golden gate bridge. that's the worst we see on the camera lenses. we'll show you the bay bridge toll plaza where the metering lights are on. we get one to two drops on the lens from time to time. condensation from the mist and the low clouds.

the drive is all right. we see a smooth flow of traffic. light for this time on a monday. the upper east shore out of hercules and highway 4 is where we see slowing. the berkeley area moves nicely. now the build for 580 off of 24. we have a smooth drive. the accident in the middle of your screen is on mission bouleva boulevard. around the sullivan underpass. if you don't know where it is, you probably don't use that portion of mission boulevard. for those of you that pass the niles boulevard, that's where it is. a car went into the road. we don't know the extent of the injuries. the investigation is happening now. you can use niles boulevard as an alternate through the area, a surface street to the south. >> something to track. impressive explanation there. >> thank you. >> bill nye the science guy has to watch out. the time is 6:10. a deadly crash caught on camera

as two planes slide in midair. hundreds of cows caught in rising flood waters. you're never going to see that video again, at least we hope not. how a group of cowboys 345 s ma to wrangle them in. the senate fails to extent the patriot act. we'll walk you through what i means coming up after this.

a horrific sight in the sky over italy. two acrobatic planes collided before the start of a local air show, killing one pilot and injuring the other. there you see it.

horrifying to see. all of it caught on camera. the two planes appear to be flying one on top of the other, as they cruise over the beach. the video then shows one plane dropping down and colliding with the second one. both planes broke up and fell into the sea, and the cause is being investigated. this morning, an unscheduled stop for a state of the art airplane making a vjoy voyage. it started a trip around the world without using fuel. the pilots made an unscheduled landing in japan due to weather. they have the riskiest part of the journey to hawaii. that leg is expected to take several days. the senate failed to extend provisions of the patriot act. >> what does this mean for privacy and national security? >> sam, this is the debate, between security and privacy. the senate last night, not able

to pass the extension of something called section 215. a piece of the patriot act that expired at midnight last night. the patriot act itself did not expire. 215 did. there are three provisions under section 215. the one you're most likely familiar with is the bulk collection of phone records by the nsa. senators argued over that with rand paul saying it was a violation of our freedoms as americans. he was able to stand in the way of the adoption of the usa freedom act. this bill would have updated the existing patriot act, extending section 215, but change the way the phone records were collected. instead of the government tracking your phone calls, the phone company would keep those records. the government could then go to the phone company and ask them for it. by not passing this, nobody is collecting bulk phone records. in some people's minds, that's fine. the entire idea of bulk

collection of phone records is controversial. some courts say it's constitutionally questionable. nobody doubts we should track individual terrorists, but it's the bulk in bulk collection of phone records that is the big controversy. as for the political side of this, this was a big blow for senate majority leader mitch mcconnell. he should never have let lawmakers go home on vacation for the memorial daybreak. he is the senior senator from kentucky. standing in his way is rand paul, the other senator from kentucky. we should point out paul is running for president. in fact, kris and sam, mcconnell endorsed rand paul. they know each other well, but they're far apart on this issue. >> not nearly as close as you have them on the screen right now. >> much farther apart. >> different hallways. some are still worried about flooding in much of the state,

seeing sunshine today for the first time in weeks. a series of deadly storms are blamed for the death of at least 31 people in texas and in oklahoma. ten people are missing. the focus shifts to assessing the damage. in houston alone, early estimates top $45 million. not far from houston, look at this. a group of cowboys working together. they are far from the ranch though. to save several hundred cows from flood waters. they are bundled in the rising waters. ranchers were able to get half of the herd over to dry land. >> that is good news in texas. we are looking live at san jose. i live in san jose. my kids wanted to go to the swimming pool yesterday, and i said, but it's winter. let's give you a live look outside. we'll check in with meteorologist kari hall. at least in the morning hours, i said, no way am i sitting pool side. >> i don't think so. it's been really chilly. it's been good to not have to turn on the ac. i know people are wanting some warmer weather. it takes a while before it gets

here. maybe this weekend. let's get a look at what you can expect, as i take you through the day. spotty drizzle. you can tell by the live look at san francisco. you can barely see anything. windshield wipers on as you get out for the north bay and slight chance of rain there, too. heading out for this afternoon, north bay, may see some sprinkles. keep the umbrella handy just in case, and the rest of the day and this evening, partly cloudy. here's what's going on. we have a southerly wind, br bringing up temperatures a couple of degrees. then the winds will start to pick up this afternoon at about 10 to 15 miles per hour. at 8:00 in the morning, we start to see those showers developing farther off towards the west. starts to try to make it to warts of the bay. maybe a slight chance of showers for the north bay. a small amount of rain. a large amount of rain is

happening out there in the pacific, with hurricane andres. category four hurricane won't stay that way, as it moves off to the west and then tucurbing around as we see the storm track changing. it may be enough to bring in moisture for southern california. we'll be watching this to see if it will bring us some beneficial rain in time for saturday. moving farther to the north on sunday with a few of the showers moving through the microclimate forecast today, morgan hill reaching 72 degrees with partly cloudy skies. the peninsula, redwood city, 60 degrees. san francisco for the marina, 59 degrees. the rest of the microclimate forecast, we see a slight chance of rain for santa rosa. 68 degrees. fremont, 70 degrees. for the tri-valley, dublin today, 72 degrees. if you're looking for a place to take a dip in the pool, even going into the weekend, stays cool, except for the tri-valley.

may hit 80 degrees by sunday. a little rain in the forecast. something we'll be tracking through the week. let's get a look at traffic with mike. >> kari, we're looking at a lighter volume of traffic. a pleasant commute around the bay, despite what kari is talking about, the moisture in the air. we have a drop on the lens here at the bay bridge toll plaza. we have good fast-moving lanes. that's good stuff. the sheen on the roadway, you'll have slicker conditions here and on the golden gate bridge. we'll look at the maps. the pleasant drive right now. we're just starting to see speeds dip below 60 through berkeley for west 80. also west 580 shows the build coming off heading into the haze. golden gate bridge, we encourage you to slow down because it's slick there. highway 4 and 580, the build westbound. 880 for the drive slowing down through hayward and fremont.

southbound mission boulevard, still closed. the crash there in investigation because a car hit a tree. you can use that sullivan underpass. this is specific information for the same area. sullivan overpass to niles boulevard and back on to mission further south. this does not affect the mission ramps for 880. quick look at san jose to show you a representation of the south bay, where we just have a little build now. this is 101 north at 680. no problems. back to you. >> just like we want to hear. thank you very much, mike. the time, 6:21. a tradition no more. the city is breaking up with the love locks. we'll tell you why next. (scal): good day, m'lady!

i am sir-can-a-lot, here to save you

u.s. marine in ocean side. 57 years old, george hood spent an amazing 5 hours 15 minutes planking. he blew away the previous guinness world record of 4 hours 26 minutes. he didn't just do it for the title or the glory. he used the event to raise money for the fund which provides help to injured u.s. service members. >> pretty sure a healthy dose of p90x won't get that done. you know the saying, show just go on. that's what enrique iglesias did when he sliced his hand at a show. he mishandled a drone. despite the blood -- you can see there's plenty of it, on his shirt there -- he kept performing for another half hour with his hand in a loose bandage. turned blood into art. iglesias saw a specialist following the show. that shirt, you know, is going

on ebay for an ungodly amount of money. >> i don't want him to be my hero there. love and romance in the city of lights is no more. >> the city of paris is going to remove padlocks from an iconic bridge today. for years, visitors have been attaching so-called love locks with sentimental messages to the bridge and throwing the keys into the river below. officials announced the move after parts of the bridge started to crumble under the weight of 700,000 locks. they weigh about the same as 20 elephants. too much love in paris. it's going to burst. the locks had to get out of there. 6:26. showdown with your privacy on the line. find out more about the last-minute deal that fell through in congress concerning the patriot act. and what this means moving forward. plus, an nbc exclusive. tracy morgan opening up about the horrific crash that almost cost him his life.

patients. a powerful new combination of drugs brought spectacular results, curing people with melanoma in some cases. >> now to our nation's capital. in washington, they tried for a last-minute deal over the weekend. didn't work. now, key provisions of the patriot act which, among other things, authorize the government to correct our phone records in bulk, have expired. tracy potts is live in washington, d.c. with what's next. is a version of this legislation expected to pass at some point that week? >> possibly in the next couple of days, sam. you talked about the phone records, which we spent a lot of time talking about. it's the other provisions that the government is now worried about that have also expired. the government can no longer collect phone records, track lone wolf terrorists or use roving wiretaps to trace suspects who change phones. >> these tools give us better ability to see the tactical

moves that various terrorist groups or individuals are making. >> reporter: the provisions of the patriot act expired at midnight. >> isn't this program as critical as it's ever been since its inception, given the fact that the middle east is literally on fire and we are losing everywhere? >> reporter: fellow republican rand paul blocked it. he's running for president. critics accused him of putting politics over national security. >> some of them, i think, secretly want there to be an attack on the united states so they can blame it on me. >> reporter: the senate failed to renew the patriot act or pass the alternative, the usa freedom act, which would leave phone records with phone companies but allow a government search. >> i'm in favor of protecting privacy rights but we also have to be aware that we're under threat. >> reporter: the senate could fix this within days. mitch mcconnell says he'll back the freedom act, which he has opposed. the white house is pushing this senate to deal with this and deal with it quickly.

as i said, now that mitch mcconnell is on board with the usa freedom act, now that more than 3/4 of the senate voted to move it forward, we could see a final vote on that, the alternative, as early as today. >> thank you very much, tracy. president and first lady paid their respects to vice president joe biden and his wife after the death of their son. beau biden died saturday at the age of 46 from brain cancer. the president released a statement about his death, saying in part, like his dad, beau was a good man who made a difference in the lives of all he touched. beau biden was a lawyer who served as delaware's attorney general. he is survived by his wife and two children. >> grief on both sides of the aisle this morning. 6:33 right now. tracy morgan baeki inbreaki silence about the collision that almost killed him. he speaks with our matt lauer on the "today" show. morgan suffered debilitating

two for the north bay. the rest of us, by noon, will see some clearing and 69 degrees at lunchtime. 60 degrees in the east bay and the tri-valley, 70 degrees at lunch. and as you head home, about 4:00, getting ready for the evening commute, we will see those temperatures in the lower 70s for the peninsula, east bay, 62 degrees. the north bay reaching 71 degrees. not a bad way to start out the week. the future cast shows a little bit of rain there. by 8:00, we will start to see a couple of spotty showers offshore and then starting to roll into parts of the north bay. that's the only place we really will see the chance of rain today. the rest of the week looks fairly dry with a mixture of sun and clouds. by 6:00, we have mostly sunny skies all across the bay area. the microclimate forecast, san jo jose, 72. the peninsula, 69 degrees. redwood city. santa rosa with the chance of

rain. fremont, 70 degrees. the warmest spot, plesanton. peninsula, you'll see a high of 72 on saturday. also for the north bay, the highs reaching into the low to mid 70s. we are watching out for a chance of a few showers this weekend. i'll have details on that and a look at the rest of the microclimate forecast coming up in a few minutes. let's get a look at traffic with mike. >> we'll get a look at what you're talking about, moisture in the air. the drizzle, rain. look at the golden gate bridge. on the lens and the roadway. that's a note for you, folks. light travel flow from the north bay and san francisco. at the bay bridge toll plaza, less water on the lens but more cars. you see the droplets and you have to use the windshield wipers. you'll have to ease up on the brakes. you hit them too hard in wet weather and you'll have a spin out.

be careful. lighter volume of traffic. not much need for the brakes. the east shore way slowing down. i want to zoom into westbound 24. approaching the warren freewayway. reports of a fender bender moving to the shoulder. it'll slow you down from the caldecut to the haze. west 92 slows a bit. reports of debris in the roadway that will have to be cleared. at the bottom of the screen, the north starting to build slowing for 101, 87 and 85. no surprised here. good stuff. we like no surprises on the road. >> we'll take nice average. >> this is like a summer light period. >> some schools are out for the summer. >> yeah. it is 6:37 right now. still ahead, a crash at lax but it doesn't involve a plane. what caused a driver to hit a little girl at the terminal.

a quick look at the big board right now. the dow sitting a little bit above 18,000 this morning. scott is going to put together the expectations for job numbers. how it could impact markets after this.

war vets caught near roadside bomb explosions may suffer brain damage, even among those who felt nothing from the blast. this is what scientists discovered. early signs of aging in war vets. veterans are showing progressive damage to the brain's wiring. they say more research is needed to understand the impact that these changes might have on behavior and also on future disease. secretary of state john kerry heads to boston for medical treatment after breaking his leg in france. he fractured his femur in a bike crash yesterday. it forced kerry to scrap a four-nation trip, including a conference in paris to describe

ways to fight sis is. >> unfortunate timing. a 9-year-old girl is in critical condition after a car plowed into her at los angeles international airport. police say the little girl was walking near one of the departure terminals last night when the car slammed into her and eventually came to rest inside the airport. the driver and a passenger were also injured, though not seriously. police think the 67-year-old driver probably mistook the gas pedal for the brake. no word if the driver will mace charges. new york city construction workers were hurt by falling debris. a heavy piece of machinery being hoisted on madison avenue broke free. it plunged nearly 30 stories down, sheering the side of the high-rise before eventually hitting the ground below. gras glass and metal littered the

street which was partially closed at the time probably for that reason. the victims are expected to be okay. >> could have killed somebody. up next, they could not pass a soda tax. now, san francisco supervisors move on to plan b. what city leaders there plan to do to curb our sugary drink cravings. and a fight over names on facebook, drawing thousands of protesters to the social net working giant's headquarters in menlo park today. live look outside right now. san jose, a clear look outside. at least in the south bay. maybe a different story elsewhere. we'll be back with 50 minutes of non-stop news, traffic and weather after the break.

15 minutes of continuous news, weather and traffic on "today in the bay." 6:45. a protest in front of facebook headquarters. hundreds, maybe more, upset about fake names. >> bob is live in menlo park. the protesters say facebook policies might make them targets of bullies or worse. >> reporter: kris and sam, the protesters plan to caravan down the peninsula to facebook headquarters in menlo park a few hours from now to protest the social media giant's policy of requiring users to submit their legal name when they want to set up an account. this has been a problem for people like drag queens, who go by stage names, along with native americans and victims of domestic violence who want to remain anonymous. facebook says that's the point of its policy. requiring people to submit their real names, it makes users more

accountable and makes it more difficult for them to harass, commit fraud or post hate spe . speech. this has been the subject of debate between facebook and protesters for several months. both sides met on more than one occasion. facebook at one point did apologize for closing the accounts of those who had been using pseudonyms. the company seemed to tweak its policy. it now allows people to use a fake name as long as they present a picture i.d. or birth certificate to verify their true identity. this seemed to satisfy some protesters. not all. the people expected to protest this morning say this rule still makes them a target of discrimination and bullying. that protest scheduled for later this morning thumbs up at menlo park. how about a look at the micro climate forecast right now. >> it looks chilly this morning. sad i'm not wearing sleeves.

meteorologist kari hall is here with how long we might want to wear sleeves. >> it will be cool. we've had the low clouds and the fog and the chilly temperatures. no change this morning. typical monday, right? well, as we go into the afternoon, couple of sprinkles possible. a couple changes farther down the line as we look at the forecast. getting a look at the picture now. it is dreary to start the day. heading into the afternoon, some peaks of sunshine. the south bay, partly cloudy. now 57 degrees. 57 in the south bay and san francisco. you can see the little rain drops there on the camera lens. into the afternoon, highs warming up to 60 degrees. a few showers possible. for the east bay, 76 degrees, the peninsula at 70 for the high this afternoon. looking in at the tropics in the pacific, the first hurricane of the season has formed. it is now a category four. we'll be watching this weekend to see if it brings some rain into southern california and if

it makes it far enough north to move into the bay area. this is saturday and sunday. we do see some rain in the forecast. especially for northern california on sunday. for us, the temperature still going up and down. that chance of rain, maybe a glimmer of hope in that long range forecast. the san francisco climate averages, we were only about 60 degrees on average in san francisco, which was four degrees cooler than normal. only measured 9/100th of an inch of rain those days with the clouds and drizzle and fog. into june, we expect the average high temperature of 66 degrees and the average rain just a little bit, not a lot. as we go into the forecast, hopefully we'll see something that will help as we go into the end of the week. the microclimate forecast for today in san jose, reaching 72 degrees. r redwood city, 59 degrees. soma, 60 degrees. the north bay reaching 68 degrees. few of the showers there taking

you into fremont, 70 degrees. warming up to 75 in plesanton. we had 70s in the forecast for the weekend. in this upcoming weekend, a glimmer of home, especially with the showers in the forecast. not really warming up though. only seeing the highs in the 60s and 70s. the warme esest spot will be in tri-valley, reaching 80 degrees. i'll have another look at the microclimate forecast coming up. let's check in with mike. >> start in the south bay. we have a little build for the volume here. northbound 101 shows slowing at 680. typical pattern here. you'll see the same thing. 101, 87 and 85, starting the northbound push. volume increases 880. smooth drive northbound through silicon valley. this is a predictable pattern. same for 680 and 880 through fremont. this is anni issue. southbound mission approaching

this would not involve voter approval? >> this one does not, sam. last year, the soda tax got majority vote, 55%, but needed 2/3. it did not pass. this time around, we don't even need that. the supervisors can pass this as part of an ordinance. it's up for discussion today. here's what is on the table. makers of sugary drinks would have to label their ads with warnings about obesity, diabetes and tooth decay. these warnings would have to take up 20% of the ad space, which is the same standard applied to tobacco warnings. this would apply to ads on city surfaces, sports venues and billboards. a second idea would ban sugary drink ads on public property. talking about busses and shelters, for instance. the last part of this would ban the city and county of san francisco from spending money on sugary drinks, period. the state beverage city group says san francisco leaders are demonizing the soda industry. for instance, milk-based

products like lattes would be exempt from the labels, despite containing as much sugar and calories as sodas. supervisors will take this up today, this afternoon. if the proposals pass, they'll go into effect 30 days after the mayor signs or supervisors can override if the mayor vetoes with 8 of 11 votes. it seems to be part of a local trend. a week ago, ucsf said starting july 1st, it'll start phasing out the sugary drinks in his hospitals and clinics. >> steph, thank you very much. moving to south san francisco, which is kicking off right now a water conservation campaign by turning off a historic fountain at city hall. the move is expected to save 28,000 gallons of water every year. the fountain recirculates the water, but the city constantly has to refill it because of erap ration -- evaporation or wind. it has been around since 1929, when the women's club erected it. overnight, the u.s. senate
