tell you is what is happening here in oakland is not the concern that people would expect from people about to be kicked out of their tent encampment. music and a generally upbeat mood at the encampment outside city hall suggested occupy oakland campers were a little concerned concerned about pending evasion. and the second eviction notice was served in two days and met with indifference and the determination of occupiers no the to leave. >> we have no intention of leaving and if we get evicted we will be back. >> rickey says he has been here since the start and spends the weekdays working a full time job but weekends camped out here. >> any preparations for evictions? >> we're getting more live streams up and running and working to get the community aware. and we're making constant announcements and planning for what will happen if they successfully get us out of here. >> reporter: the shooting death of a man near the city hall encampment contributed to a new

6:10 pm
who bought them. and they got a small group discount on service. and they tried to sell the idea to those who haven't. >> if they're on your property, chances are they're not supposed to be there. and tools like these are especially important with all of the police department cuts we've seen in oakland. people are getting the feeling they need to take matters into their own hands. >> it is going to create more solid cases. >> reporter: which means police may give your burglary a second look. >> if you have a good solid lead on somebody who is creating crimes and doing damage, right then and there, that's what you got to roll with. >> reporter: it won't always prevent a crime according to some who already have cameras. >> it didn't stop somebody from coming down and thinking about breaking into my house. when i was home. >> reporter: but a high quality picture can be worth more than words. >> don't mess with us. you're going to get caught. >> reporter: in oakland, anne makovec, cbs 5. in other bay area news, today, pg&e retested the part of the pipeline that failed during a similar test last weekend in

6:14 pm
we usually hear from i.d. theft victims who tell nightmare stories of their experiences but now we're going to hear from two women who know critical details about i.d. theft because they made careers out of it. julie watts got exclusive access behind prison walls and asked these women to reveal their secrets. >> it is easy, it is fast, and it is a fast comer. >> and how cheryl emptied bank accounts for a small crime ring. >> there are some banks that made it easier. >> tiffany did it to get drugs. they're two of the more than 1400 california inmates currently behind bars for identity theft crime. and they agreed to sit down with us to reveal the tricks of the trade. by dissecting bonnie hoeg's story, one of last year's 8 million identity theft victims.
6:15 pm
>> i contacted every single bank. let them know i had identity theft. made sure they closed my accounts and put on an alert. >> cheryl says that doesn't matter. she is not surprised that even though banks were notified, this happened. one week after her wallet was stolen, bank tellers say this woman used bonnie's i.d. to clean out other accounts at two different banks. >> you walked into banks and used fake i.d.s to take money out of people's accounts, how is that possible? >> you basically try to find a teller who looks young, you know, just starting, or whatever. >> and cheryl says the secret is distracting those tellers with friendly conversation. something she says every i.d. thief knows. >> like oh, yeah, i'm going to go purchase a car or put a down payment on this. >> another common trick. >> if you go more towards the end of the day, you know they're not really paying much attention. >> they're just doing the transaction to hurry up and get it done. >> that's something identity thieves count on and likely something this woman knew when bank tellers say she tried to steal money out of the third account. >> the teller told me and said
6:16 pm
were you just in here, and absolutely not and you need to get her, she came two minutes after closing and when we tried to ask her another question she got skittish and ran out. >> banks have security guards. >> i think they make it too easier. >> tiffany believes they should have detained the woman and thieves know that is unlikely when tellers suspect fraud because she feels banks are too afraid they offend a customer in the event they happen to be wrong. >> a lot of people do shady stuff. >> and thieves are not always working alone. when she was stealing money, she said she often had help from the inside. >> they told me who to go to and that's who i went to. >> when she didn't have an inside man, she was taught well-known work arounds for everything from pass words to fingerprints. >> they would use super glue and liquid bandage and they would put it on their fingers and wait for it to dry just a little bit and then put it to somebody else, and that's how they would get a new set of prints. >> and is there something banks can do to prevent people like that from coming in and stealing
6:17 pm
other people's money? >> make sure that they're asking a more stringent amount of questions before taking a large amount. i don't think there is enough security in place. >> they suggest realtime fingerprint verification. along with regular employee drug tests. but these women also point out what is more important than how they steal your money, is how they steal your identity, to begin with. >> people dig in dumpsters or they may break into houses. or cars. and then they may know somebody, hey, this looks like so and so. >> but cheryl says the most commonplace to have your identity stolen is are right in your front yard. >> don't put your outgoing mail in a mailbox at night. ever. you know, if they see a flag up, it is gone. julie watts, cbs 5. and bonnie's banks confirm they didn't detain the woman in the photos. and fear that she might actually be bonnie. and we should note the woman in the photo has not been charged

6:19 pm
heroism of firefighters. the optic bell weighs 400 pounds and is created from more than 8,000 pieces of glass. >> i close to get into this type of medium because no one else was really pushing this type of glass in any are really creative direction. and i thought that it was the way for me to get my artistic voice heard. >> the sculpture took 18 months to create. well, the seemingly never-ending winter and wet summer made for a shorter-than-usual fire season. the california department of forestry officially declared fire season over this week, after intermittent rain last month. and the official tally shows that statewide, fire consumed more than 92,000 acres during the season. and that's the fifth lowest total in 40 years. last year, the total was 93,000 acres. meteorologist jim bernard joining us to take a look at how the rest of the weekend will shape up. >> well, showers tapered off

6:21 pm
upper 40s, to low 50s. and again, skies clearing out, as the clouds dissipate here through the evening hours. and we will have a little patchy morning fog due to the moisture on the ground. some radiational type fog in the morning and then see it clear out through the afternoon. as our rainmaker has moved off in southern california and producing some thunderstorm activity here this afternoon. and this evening, high pressure system fills back in through midweek and then we will look at thursday, for the next frontal system, to drop into our area. and looks like it will be passing to the north this time. and unlike what we just saw on friday. so just glancing blow for us, minimal amounts of precipitation, expected at this time. and temperature-wise, tomorrow, we will gain a few degree, and still in the mid to upper 60s, for the warmer fringe locations, and back at the bay, mid to low 60s. and at the beach, upper 50s to low 60s expected. as with we see skies clear out here through the beginning of the week, into midweek, and with a little patchy morning fog likely. and temperatures will warm
6:22 pm
slightly but nothing dramatic here as with we see a few degree bump through the middle of the week. and then come thursday, the pattern changes once again and we cool things off and bring a chance of showers back to the area. there is probably more drops in that picture than will actually show up. but nonetheless, it is a chance of rain by the end of the week. >> it looks like quite a storm we had coming in. >> not quite that much. >> thank you, jim. appreciate it. well, it is a transit milestone. how amtrak celebrated in the bay area today by traveling back in time. dress for success. one man's attempt at a world record, one layer at a time. ,,

president squared off in their latest debate tonight. the stakes are high for all of them, the eight republican candidates for president squared off in the latest debate tonight. the stakes are high for all of them of course. but all eyes were on two. rick perry and herman cain. who said that god told him he needed to run for president. randall pinkston reports. >> the republican candidates -- >> the eight republicans running for president took the stage in south carolina to talk national security and foreign policy. in a debate sponsored by cbs news, and the national journal. the stakes are especially high for herman cain and rick perry. the texas governor hoped to come on strong. after a big blund ner a debate wednesday. and cain is fighting to move on. after spending more than a week addressing allegations of sexual harassment. >> we need to put economic pressure on iran. by way of our own energy

6:32 pm
freeze? did he? >> i said he was one of the people who had something to lose and he did. to answer your question. there was a debate moment where listeners got to listen to it, where he corrected the moderator about the department of energy and said i'm glad you remembered that, and the announcer said, i had time to think about and perry joked i had all with week to think about it and people laughed and the moment was done and no more reason to bring reference to it. and reasonably substantive on the other answers. if he makes a joke and moves on, it can be in the rear view mirror. >> herman cain saw momentum wane with the sexual harassment allegations and people are looking at what he will say next to put it behind him and what did he say tonight that you thought would stand out? >> he had an opportunity several times to distinguish himself as someone who has been an executive in business, you know, and show what kind of leadership
6:33 pm
style he would have. and he has given a question, an undermine softball pitch question, when would you differ, if people are giving you device, what would you give as criteria who will differ, i will surround myself with people and listen to what they say and make up their mind. it wasn't a great moment. a lot of times that he gave specifics about foreign policy that was different than barack obama, he was treading on the same path. i wouldn't say it was a bad night but not a great night, either. >> up until this point, the focus has been obviously on domestic issues, the economy, so a lot of the republican response to foreign policy is saying anything other than what president obama is doing. who stood out as coming up with their own foreign policy, somebody who seemed like they could take the commander in chief role? >> i don't know about who could take the commander in chief role but there are three people who were gad at it -- good at it because it is a pity with the
6:34 pm
substantive information. and john huntsman corrected mitt romney about china and talking about antagonistic and a trade war with china. and i thought he was credible and i wish he would get more time because i think he could establish more credibility with republican voters. i thought surprisingly michele bachmann and rick santorum and i say surprisingly because she hasn't been that sensible in a lot of issues made a lot of sense about talking about pakistan and relating our relationship to them to our concerns also about the possession of a nuclear weapon, why we have to sort of be careful about them. finally i would say that rick perry's play tonight, about the zero-based budget and making every country that we give foreign aid come back to the beginning of the year and justify it and seems that they say me too on, and perry gets i think some kudos for that. >> they liked what they heard. >> and joe, thank you. an hour long debate. and you kind of reader digested it for us. and we appreciate it. thank you very much. >> okay. so it is sort of a -- why is this allowed kind of story.
6:35 pm
insider trading is illegal except if you're a member of congress. nancy pelosi is now on the defensive. >> martha stewart got in trouble for lying about it. and you and i could go to jail for it. insider trading. but members of congress can do it. make profits on information only they know. and it is perfectly legal. former congressman brian baird. >> there should only be one thing in your mind when you're drafting legislation. is this god for the united states of america? -- is this good for the united states of america? that's it. if you're starting to say to yourself, how is this going to affect my investments, you've got a mixed agenda and a mixed purpose for being there. >> according to sunday's "60 minutes" report, house speaker nancy pelosi and her husband paul took an insider's opportunity to invest millions of dollars in san francisco-based credit card company visa. just as tough legislation against credit card companies was making its way through the house. the legislation made it to committee.
6:36 pm
but not to the floor. as speaker pelosi controlled what bills came to a vote. "60 minutes" correspondent steve croft confronted pelosi during a news conference. >> do you consider that to be a conflict of interest? >> i don't know what your point is of your question. is there some point that you want to make with that? >> well, i guess what i'm asking is, do you think it is all right for a speaker to accept a very preferential favorable stock deal. >> we didn't. >> the stormer congressman spent several years tried to pass legislation to ban insider trading in congress and co-authored a bill called a stock act but the 400 plus colleagues didn't want to pass a law against themselves. >> how far did you get? >> we didn't get anywhere. it flat died. it went nowhere. >> how many co-sponsors did you get? >> i think we got six. >> six doesn't sound like a very big amount. >> it is not, steve. you could have national cherry pie week and get 100 co-sponsors.
6:37 pm
>> sharon chen, cbs 5. >> so why can members of congress get away with insider trading? because of a loophole. normally, it is illegal to use insider information when it violates the confidentiality of the company or the source of information. and since the information source is a federal government, members of congress don't need to be confidential with the government. so it is not liable for insider trading. president obama is in hawaii hoping to improve the american economy with the help of pacific rim nations and the president is hosting the asia-pacific economic su summit in his home state. and bringing together nation ceos and presidents. and mr. obama announced an agreement to have a trans-pacific trade zone with eight other countries. >> the whole goal of apac is to ensure that we are reducing barriers to trade and investment that can translate into concrete jobs, here in the united states, and all around the world. >> following the summit, mr.

6:49 pm
upper 50s to low 60s, out on the beach. and we will look for the lows tonight to cool a bit. but a far cry from any frost here, as we see upper 30s to low 40s out across the interior, in the north bay, moving back to the water. and we will look for mid to upper 40s. and on the beach, we will also look for upper 40s to low 50s there. and so pretty close to seasonal norms for this time of the year. and we see the rainmaker from yesterday. moving off into southern california now. and generating some isolated thunderstorm activity there. and as skies clear out across central california. and the overrunning cloud cover from a new front begins to move in. to the far north. and again, for the next couple of day. as this energy slides south, high pressure will fill in and hold through about midweek. that should keep us dry and pretty warm, a couple of degrees warmer tomorrow. and each and every day, warm, a few degrees, and still probably end up in the upper 60s to low 70s. and for the warmer locations, and mid 60s back in the east bay hills, and then low 60s at the beach. which is pretty much what we're
6:50 pm
looking for tomorrow. as those mid to low 60s should prevail once again. for the immediate bay area. and for the seven-day forecast, here, we will dry things out through the beginning of the week and hold on to the trend, through midweek. and as you can see by thursday, into the weekend, the pattern changes once again, with much cooler air. headed our way. and isolated showers on and off. and at this point, it does look like a big rainmaker but i would look for some moisture to be in the area, nonetheless. and for tomorrow, no rain to speak of. as we see mostly sunny and mid-60s for game time tomorrow. at candlestick. and right now, here is kim with a preview. >> thanks, jim. penn state takes the field without joe paterno for the first time in over 40 years. cal runs wild in their final home game. was it enough to make them bowl eligible? find out next in sports. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
