when all the required appearances are included. state minimum wage is $9 an hour. the raiders have not yet commented. it was a media frenzy at the u.s. media center where dancer, reporters, and this weekend's two super bowl bound teams converged for media day. mark ibanez joins us. this is the last time we'll see these guys so loose and relax. >> yeah, this is for reporters and probably the players themselves. maybe the most fun you'll have in super bowl week outside of the game. you were there last year in new york. and it is a blast and i think if you go in and you don't really have an idea of what kind of a story you're going to do, you get slapped in the face with about four or five different ideas. we in the media, we get accused of asking stupid questions. this is a one day you get a pass, because a lot of the questions are really stupid. this year, little bit different as gasia mentioned, it was indoors where the phoenix suns

played. usually they play it on the football field where the game on sunday will be played at the u.s. airways center center in phoenix. marshawn lynch made some news himself, not really on media day of all times, willing to talk to the media and there were some 200 reporters around him alone. we also got to see the lighter side of patriots coach, bill belichick, as he was asked by the daughter of a player an unusual question. >> what stuffed animals do i like? um, i like a little puppet you can put your fingers in. it's a little monkey. >> can i ask you one question? did your daddy fix your hair? >> you can ask all the questions you want to. i'm going to answer with the same answer. so, you all can shoot if you

all please. i'm here so i won't get fined. i'm here so i won't get fined. >> i am not getting paid -- >> i mean, since i'm the only one that whips out my dance moves, i have to go with myself. >> he was asked to dance -- >> we have a lot of good looking guys on our team. >> i'm just here so i won't get fined. >> it does feel like a loaf of bread. >> i'm just here so i won't get fined. >> my dance style is unorthodox. i just have a blast. let my body do what it wants to do. >> here is richard sherman. >> we have a lot of good looking guys on our team. >> i'm just here so i won't get fined. >> hey, not him. he was dancing. >> there's no question that richard sherman is the best dancer. he's the one. >> i'm here so i won't get

fined. >> all right, so 29 times, marshawn lynch was asked a question by a various reporter and he gave pretty much a variation of the same answer, time after time. so, four minutes, 52 seconds is how long he hung out and apparently that was the minimum that he had to be there. otherwise he faced a possible fine of up to $500,000. and you know, if you know marshawn away from the field and away from the media, couldn't ask for a nicer guy. always giving back to the community here in the east bay, but he is steadfast in his refusal of wanting to talk to the media. >> what you just showed us, keeping with his character. this is not surprising given what we know of him. >> no, he doesn't enjoy talking to the media. he is not an antisocial guy, but he is with the media. if you know him away from the field, it will be interesting to see if the nfl does act in a

disciplinary nature. >> tom brady, we have a lot of good looking guys. >> the patriots says he's the best dancer. i don't know. >> all right, thanks, mark. we have some good news tonight about those contaminated birds pulled from the shoreline in east bay more than a week ago. some of them have now been rehabilitated and tomorrow, they will be ready to be released. noelle walker is live in fairfield at the international bird rescue where those birds are being treated. noel, those birds may be well enough to be released, but we don't know what that mystery goo was that coated their feathers in the first place. >> the department of fish and wildlife said there's a dedicated work group trying to figure out what that mystery goo is. even today, birds here at international bird rescue going through a second wash and spot washing just trying to get it off. but in the meantime, there are 15 to 20 birds ready to go. we watched as they went through their final paces just to make

sure they are ready. it's like a dish washing job. >> the worst ones are done. >> with an unending supply. >> these are like spot washes. >> of dirty plates. this is one of 221 being treated at international bird rescue. >> i think it's frustrating we don't know what the contaminant is. >> the mystery goo in the bay that coated their feathers more than a week ago still a mystery. >> i think it's really amazing that we're going to be releasing birds back into the wild and still trying to figure out what it is that we clean them. it's very unusual for us. >> these two pools right here are the ones we have been monitoring. >> the birds have been living in pools. >> they look wet, then usually something is wrong. >> beautiful nail. >> boys on one side, girls on the other. like a junior high dance. >> have to reorganization theirfelters to get that

to release them in the same place where they were contaminated. >> noelle walker live in fairfield. thank you. >> santa clara county has its first flu related death of the season recorded. according to the county health department, the person was under 65 years old and died last weekend. the person had not received the flu vaccine. health officials recommended that people 6 months and over get vaccinated for the flu. a young woman simply out for a jog hit and killed by cars that police say were racing. >> ruined our whole family. she was our star. killed our family. >> the changes her family wants san jose to make so this kind of accident never happens again. >> plus, the verdict in a case a bay area teacher accused of molesting his students. >> but first, the northeast cleaning up after a massive winter storm. a look at the areas that were hardest hit and also the one major area where the storm

you mentioned, martin's wife sat hunched over crying as the verdicts came in. >> i believe he is innocent of these charges, i really do. >> accused of inappropriately touching the chests of his fifth and sixth grade students. he faces a minimum of 15 years to life in prison. this was the second time martin had been on trial for these charges. martin's first trial in june 2014, the jury was undecided on most of the counts against him. this time around, a different group of jurors reached a completely different conclusion. >> just surprised that it was as guilty. >> this man who didn't want to be identified was juror number 7 in martin's first trial. >> very emotional. we couldn't come together on thinking much more than he was overly caring teacher. >> the jury in martin's first trial did not convict him on any charges. >> i think that is what a lot of people had a problem with, having somebody go to jail for

touching students. again, most didn't think it was sexual. >> martin could have gone free after that first trial, but contra costa county district attorney decided to try him again. butts said under the law, touching a child anywhere for sexual gratification is abuse. >> it could be patting on the knee. it could be bouncing on the lap. that's what people need to understand. you know, these great babysitters and great relatives might be doing these things they think they can get away with. >> martin's attorney said the chest patting was a technique to calm down disruptive students. the jurors in the second trial didn't buy that argument. >> devastated. it just shows two different juries, you can get two different outcomes. >> martin's sentencing is scheduled for february 20. his attorney says he doesn't know if martin will decide to appeal the verdict. gasia. >> ali, thank you. crews across the northeast are cleaning up after a blizzard

dropped up to 3 feet of snow in some parts. i want to show you live pictures from plum island in massachusetts. that is north of boston and you can see there that it is really coming down. i heard one massachusetts official say today that this blizzard is going to go down as one of the top five biggest storms in new england history. joel waldman is live inside new york city. looking behind you, it's like a ghost town in there. >> it's absolute ghost town here. and frank, as you just eluded to, this blizzard continuing to reek havoc on parts of the northeast. for others, it was just a plain old snowfall. >> parts of new england baring the brunt of the winter storm. some areas getting several feet of snow. in western massachusetts, things are better than expected. governor charlie baker lifting the travel ban. but on the eastern side of the state, a blizzard warning remains in effect. heavy snow continuing to fall. >> this is clearly a very big

storm. for most of massachusetts and i'm glad we had a little bit of a warning to plan for it. >> conditions in rhode island not much better. roughly 2 feet of snow reported in some areas there. >> we want everybody off the roads. travel ban is still in effect. >> in new york on the other hand, it is the big blizzard that never was. the winter storm predictions failing to live up to the hype. roads reopened and mass transit systems up and running. >> the storm in general, i think it's fair to say was less destructive than predicted. >> at laguardia airport, crews are out in force trying to clear the runways. inside the terminals, the often bustling transit hub, a virtual ghost town. >> i'm here for three days and the blizzard is awful. i'm heading home for florida. sunny florida. >> sunny florida sounds pretty good just about now.

here in the new york area, 1400 flights were canceled. here at laguardia, more than 500 flights were canceled. tomorrow, expect this airport to be busier than usual as stranded passengers try to get back to their destination. frank. >> can't get over that picture. there is no one there. joel waldman. i was listening to someone talk and actually, we'll get to that in a moment. while the snow fell overnight in boston, an unusual creature roamed the streets. this is the now famous boston yetti. a person wearing a costume of the mythical creature walked through the snow and a boston suburb throughout the night. people snapped pictures and the yetti became a social media sensation and has its own twitter handle. now as i was saying, i was listening to people in massachusetts talking. they got lucky because the snow wasn't heavy. it was light and fluffy. had the snow gotten heavy, it would have weighed down all the power lines.

they were expecting hundreds and thousands without power. nowhere near as many lost power as they thought. >> people in new york city saying it wasn't a big deal, but according to our meteorologist, bill martin. you were saying this shifted a little bit, but it wasn't as much as you predicted. >> i mean, the storm center was about 50 miles north and east of where they thought it would be. which isn't very far in terms of a forecast of this magnitude. it was far enough in the case of this nor'easter that it took the snow dry line and moved it east of new york. so new york city, the city that everybody thought was going to get slammed hard as well like boston, not a big deal. but, you know, that's what happens. it's snowing out there right now. you have boston right now is getting hit hard. that's a nice looking storm, continuing to work its way off in this direction. that's why we call it a nor'easter. the system moves in that general direction. if we look a little bit closer,

you can see that new york, you are in the clear here, obviously, and the system is really winding down. but boston getting hit pretty hard. we can take a look at snowfall rates in the boston area. let's take a pick and you can see how it's not much, .04 inches an hour. you can getting snowfall rates down below an inch an hour easily. here's the system now. some sprinkles in our area this morning. steve was talking about them down in san jose. further south, down towards salinas and king city, they got some rain. that system falling apart now, as we come in closer. you can see some wet weather trying to move on shore. even though the radar is picking it up, doesn't mean you are getting rain. you are getting rain up in the sky. as it comes down, it evaporated. a lot of this stuff is going over the top of us. it's evaporating before it hits the ground. so as you look outside, there's

a live camera shot. partly cloudy to mostly sunny tomorrow. for patchy coastal or valley fog to return, with temperatures like these, lots of mid 40s tomorrow morning. with the fog returning not in rampant form, a little bit of fog. here's how the computer model likes for tomorrow morning. the valley fog not happening. that low went through, basically, and blew up the inversion. tomorrow will be a nice day. as we look at the forecast highs, 60 in brentwood. 61 in concord, and you can't really, you know, our weather compared to our weather. they got full blown winter going on out there and we have full blown, you know, could be march with these numbers, right? so definitely disparity in weather types and we continue on this kind of, you know, warm, above average, dry pattern through the weekend. so, it is strange. it's strange watching all the coverage last night and this morning because i almost want to go back there. have you been in a nor'easter?

>> not one that bad. >> i would love to be in one and see what it's like in boston. but again, look at our weather, look at theirs. >> and the contrast, oh my gosh. we could use some of their snow. thanks, bill. >> new clues about the drone that landed at the white house we told you about yesterday. why investigators are calling it a drunken mistake. >> plus, for the first time in 25 years, licensed doctors went on strike at uc campuses. they say it isn't about their pay. >> now to julie haener in the newsroom. >> the measles outbreak has rignited the debate over vaccines. we hear from a family who never thought they would have to fear a preventable disease. >> i don't know where she got. >> one mother's story as she spends her newborn fight for every breath. we're talking with police about what may have prompted that pursuit. these stories and more coming up at 6:00.
