we had hoped to talk with the crew about the past 26 hours and the dicey rescue mission to airlift thed they were tired and a bit frustrated and at the end it was decided that because of risks to the injured crew people they would not air lift them to the helicopter. still, the mission was a success. >> the important thing to remember is that everyone is safe and sound. the response crew and the two injured passengers aboard the yacht and everyone is on their way back and we will be able to get the passengers the medical attention they need >> winds up to 60 knots sent massive waves of washing over board everything not tied down. one braker took out the steering of a yacht leaving three crewmembers with injuries. a u.s. coast guard c-130 reached the on sunday and drop supplies but the weather was too bad to put rescue jumpers into the seat >> they're high winds and the swells are large out there and of course, we will be moving the sailboat and rocking back and forth, the cutter itself is moving. >> weight in today the coast guard was able to get a cutter to the damaged yacht. sea cond

we are going to be a little bit on the dicey side in terms of burning out there. churchville's temperature, coming in at 37 degrees, ellicott at 38. more of the same frederick. breezy this morning, with gusts up to 25 miles an hour, through the day. let's get a check of the traffic with angela. >>> good morning. friday morning, light is what you will experience out. there no trouble spots to report, especially 695, as we give you a life look at the west side, drive past liberty road, no delays or incidents to report as you make the drive. a live look at u.s. 50, i-97, lanes open and moving fine, especially northbound 97, heading up to 695. if anything changesly let you know about it. follow us on maryland traffic. >>> a maryland man will be sentenced for his role in aan attempted bomb plot. martinez has pleaded guilty to trying to detonate what he thought was a car bomb outside a military recruiting center in catonsville. the operation was part of an fbi sting. he could face up to 25 years in prison. >>> police solved a missing person's case but look for a motive

. >>> traffic is a little dicey because of the wet roads. it's not raining hard but you will see water all over the place and possibly standing water. slow it down and take it easy. our very own dave clark said he was driving through the tunnel and found himself going a little fast. >> i slowed down though. >> slow down as you drive to work. this is a look at 80 westbound. dave will be out of my hair in a half hour. northbound 101 approaching the 80 split that traffic looks good. there are no major problems here. southbound 101 also looks good to the airport. it's 4:30 let's go back to the desk. >>> there is developing news from southeast asia. a magnitude 8.6 earthquake hit indonesia. indonesian's president say there is are no reports of casualties or damage. tsunami warning has been issued for the entire indian ocean. there was a magnitude 8.1 after shock a half harrowing e.g.. these earthquakes hit the general area. a quart every of a million people were killed. >>> the president of oikos university says the future of that school is in do

a little dicey when you start bringing the troops in in all this.hen the president is there talking to troops and talking about defending themç against folks from these for profit colleges who are preying on troops. preying on veterans. and one of the instances he talked about in his speech, preying on troop who have come back who have severe brain injuries and don't even remember the courses they signed up for. so the public can attack the president for his use of air force one, pooh pooh getting osama bin laden but it is a very dicey situation when you start criticizing the president for saying something and doing things with the troops. >> again, to richard's point earlier. they seem to want to attack his celebrity. and yet when it comes to a constructive proposal, have we heard mitt romney come out with one in relation to the troops? for example, what the president has signed today to protect their interests? to protect their finances? particularly individuals who may have suffered traumatic brain injury. where is the positive constructive poli

heavier rain pushing in to westminster, reisterstown, over i-70, a dicey commute. see wet weather around towson, baltimore, this will continue through the remainder of the morning. make sure you take it easy on the roadways and also have that rain gear with you. 43 degrees in bel air right now. chester town 42. much colder in frostburg. we will feel the wind gusts up to 30 miles per hour. feels like we are in the 30s. we need to dress like it's winter and maybe the gloves wouldn't be something to rule out this morning. now a check of the traffic with angela. >>> good morning, good morning, everyone. busy, dealing with incidents. on the outer loop, a very slow drive there. new accident on i-97, slow traffic southbound 97, approaching maryland 1 hundred, closing the left lane with that accident. traveling around the baltimore beltway, slow on the outer loop, this is a live look at liberty, that starts before you reach liberty road and continues through baltimore national pike. i-95, delays are in placings traveling southbound, after mown they road to approaching whit

. >> let's switch for the dicey topic of racism to the dicey topic of sexism.to talk about -- i want to talk about the augusta golf tournament. both president obama and mitt romney weighed in about augusta golf club saying they should admit women. chrystia, you have some thoughts on this. ibm a major sponsor of this golf tournament has a special role in this this year. >> i think this shows how far behind the times augusta is, because ibm is now run by a woman. their ceo is a woman. ibm is a big sponsor and traditionally the ceo of ibm becomes a member. and they can't do that because she has two xs. to me, what's really astonishing about all this is , the way in which even today, sexism is the legitimate form of discrimination. imagine that augusta had a policy we don't admit jews, we don't admit blacks. >> they only admitted blacks in 1990. >> but imagine if that was the case today -- >> george it's acronynism. >> it is. but there are women's clubs in this country, there are women's colleges in this country. more power to them. >> you have black clubs. jewish

but into the afternoon and evening that's when things will start getting a little dicey and then sunday, sunday could be rather wet especially east and i'll explain in just a moment but this afternoon, looks fantastic. as temperatures will be climbing into the mid 70s. might even see a few upper 70s when the mix of sunshine and a few clouds out there and a southeast wind at 5 to 10 miles an hour. upper 60s by 9:00 and been watching just a few clouds come up parts of the delmarva. virginia here to parts of the shenandoah valley and northern virginiad not a pristine sky and some of this is on the high cloud level but still enough sunshine to come down and our temperatures shot well into the 60s and even 70 in fredericksburg. 66 in easton across the bay. 69 in frederick and looking outside on the michael & son weather camera. dew point at 50 and been there all day and a south southeast wind at 8 miles an hour. our weather headlines, well a fabulous friday underway. you know that if you've been outside. cold front tomorrow. that's going to bring us the chance for storms and showers more so

. >> have you been in any situations in your operational career where you thought okay, this is dicey. we flew one -- >> mission that i overflew. that just before we kicked off the mission to overfly to look at you know, to collect information for evidence of what we were looking for at the time. and we went out there alone on our freight over iraq. back and forth across the country. not the same u2 that -- let's put it that way. and extremely capable of flying well above most threats. and -- we have -- we have invested in the airplane to make it very survivable. and we redeploy it too as like any other platform in the air force. we employ it to address those vulnerabilities is key and we do all these things i take it's an extremely capable platform. >> aren't we in the golden age of autonomous? >> yes, i would say we are. we have more seriously invested in that than i think we have before i think. you nonuple rice predcaps, the leaper system, the global hawk, you know, the fact that u2 is still around absolutely. we're in the golden age of isr. it's very important it gives us the eye

i think he anounsd tnnounced th and had the hearing afterwards, which was a bit dicey, but we got by. >> finding discrimination was important, was not it, to the rationale you provided bill rehnquist? wasn't that important for making the legal case? that you already found discrimination? >> yes, yes. but it was a little thin. the truth of the matter is the essence of the affirmative action plan was to take the statistics and come up with with an idea that would generate greater participation on the part of african-americans. we said blacks in those days. in the various construction industries. we didn't care that much about the discrimination. that was more of a fig leaf, as we did think one -- i should say one ver persuasive to me i ran over and think back to what was right. it's not that we like to discriminate against blacks. we discriminate against everybody who is not in the family. in other words, the steel workers or the iron workers or carpenters would be limited to family members. so in that sense there was discrimination, but the truth of the matter is there were very few bl

now in egypt, my friend, it's a dicey situation. but they also have to understand that, charlie, mubarak was going to go whether we wanted them to go or not. he was going to go. when that young man set himself on fire in tunisia, that lit a flame that's not going to go out for a long time and is going to spread all around the world. >> rose: does it have to go through a period in which, in fact, there will be governments coming to power that are akin to the muslim brotherhood? >> i think it depends on what you call the muslim brotherhood. there are elements of the muslim brotherhood that i think we can work with and it can be reasonable. there are other elements the salafists and others that we cannot. >> rose: but in some cases they're being elected to parliament and in some cases they're... >> yeah. and i met with the leader of the muslim brotherhood in egypt. he says a lot of the right things. he's a very wealthy man. i think there is an understanding in egypt that they don't think an extremist government should take charge but,

it does look dicey and chaotic out there. we hope it is not an accident waiting to map. waiting to happen. we are streaming sky 7hd video live on abc7news.com, by the way if you want to check it out there. the total cost of the project is expected to be $1.1 billion. again, this started at 8:00 tonight, and it is scheduled to go through until 5:00 a.m. monday morning. the project is expected to be completed in 2015. but they made quick work of this so far and started rapidly. >>> the temporary new road is scheduled to open at 5:00 on monday morning. it will take drivers through the new tunnel where north and southbound traffic will be separated by a moveable barrier. the new configuration includes an intersection near the palace of fine arts. >> sky 7hd was overhead as the last two cars entered doyle drive. it was a lone suv and joined at the last second by a pick up truck and if they tried to time it or just got lucky here, they are to get around the closure. the primary alternate route to get to and from the golden gate bridge is 19th avenue. it is an option to get to

the things that are dicey to trying to figure out and the fire chief tells me fire people will not go in those buildings. by the way, if there is a fire there and leaking gas underneath the street it's going to blow up. you know, comforting things like that. so i asked him to be in charge of finding out what he could about the gas mains underneath the street and i'm still waiting for that report, by the way. [laughter] so the fourth thing was the network and the volunteers and the organization. the fifth thing was really to get to the substance. you know, what plans did we have to make for individual businesses to have some access in acceptable ways based on engineering that was sort of ongoing, and then we had some bigger plans going on. and the whole project then became one of -- you remember october 17, and then what was the day after thanksgiving? we didn't know it was black friday in those days. it was just thanksgiving. we knew we had the downtown open in some fashion or form. and so then the enterprise shifted to getting these pavilions set up and all the volunteers and structu

coming out to baltimore roadway, starting tonight and expecting the commute, could be a little bit dicey. part thes of the jfx closing for repairs. >> here with everything you need to know and how to get around, abc 2 news traffic reporter angela foster. reporter: good morning. we are live at the jones falls expressway this morning. the big story is the lane closures that will begin tonight at 7:00. now, in case you have not heard, the department of transportation, the city department of transportation will be closing the left lane both northbound and southbound on the jones falls expressway starting tonight at 7:00 in the vicinity of 29th street to george park lake drive. the lane closures are needed for emergency repairs to collapse drainage pipes and those are located, of course, underneath the expressway. these closures are very important, but the big deal is going to be the significant delays that will come with the closures. as you know, we have approximately 110,000 vehicles on the jones falls expressway everyday, so what we're advising motorists to do is to plan ahead. these clos

i give a lot of lectures aat school, and it's a little dicey. i even have to explain who president ford is sometimes. i had an ongoing relationship with him starting the first "time" cover of him when he was designated by nixon to be the replacement for agnew. then "time" had we covering him. i got to know the family really well. i went skiing with them and taking pictures. it was back in the days when the magazine paid for my skiing lessons in the good old days as we would call them. but i got to know them really well. by the time he became president, i had really got along well with everybody including the kids. mrs. ford was always, you know, a big proponent of having me work in the white house. the night that president ford was sworn in, he had been president for about eight hours, and my background is i'm from a little town in oregon. i have no background in journalism or anything else. my dad was a traveling salesman, and how i got to that night sitting with president ford, the only person in the room, and he wanted to talk to me about the

the hearings that have been had, there's a lot of talk of legislation, but, you know, it gets pretty dicey, too, in terms of what one person's view of privacy is, a whole business model for another. and people don't realize the interconnection is what makes it free on the internet. >> host: chairman walden, what about piracy legislation? do you think that will be revisited? [laughter] >> guest: well, sopa and pipa have put a new spin in town on how you lobby congress. talk about a new model that appeared out of nowhere. we were all inundated by the response. now, i think -- and i'm going to be out in the silicon valley again here in a couple of weeks -- but i think some of the companies involved in opposition also recognize that may not be a long-term lobbying strategy, that there ar issues of theft of intellectual property, and they want to be careful they're not viewed as the driver of the robber, you know, back and forth. i mean, if you're doing that in a bank, you're culpable. if you're doing that online, are you? i don't know. but i'd like to see the content community and the ip commu

washington, the hearings that have been had, there's a lot of talk of legislation, but it gets pretty dicey, too in terms of one person's view of privacy is another business model for another and people don't realize the interconnection sometimes is what makes it freed on the internet. >> german walden, what about piracy in legislation? do you think there will be revisited? >> well, sopa and pipa have put a noose been in town how you lobby the congress, talk about a new model that appeared out of nowhere we were all in the data i'm going to be out in the silicon valley some were involved in opposition sopa and pipa also recognize that may not be a long-term strategy that there are issues of the theft of intellectual property and you ought to be careful, they are not viewed as the driver back and forth. if you are doing that in the bank or culpable if you are doing it on line i'd like to see the community as the ip community come together to address internationally what we do domestically and we would be able to call a local sheriff if it were targeted and you are walking out the front door

republicans behind and republicans control the house at the moment in the senate things are a lot more dicey there's a couple different versions of the bill some are better than others some have more privacy protection and there's still a strong ongoing debate about exactly how strong it should be and then longer term the white house even the white house which is not known for protecting privacy has come out and said that they will veto the bill in its current form so i think there's a lot of hope if we keep protesting and we keep fighting this and yes president obama the administration came out with the release yesterday officially opposing. is that of a promising sign for you is a very promising sign i mean if you read their message it's incredibly strong you know kind of surprising to see the president being this harsh on a bill that's supposed to protect against terrorists but there it is and nobody expected it when this bill was first introduced everyone thought this was another uncontroversial thing that would sail through even easier than they thought so it would sail through because

system and there is not as much heavy rain but heavy rain and some of the off ramps are tricky and dicey so be careful. our system should be south of san jose but by 10:00 everything is gone as far as the heavy duty ban is fine. by this afternoon maybe a semibreak will take us to friday morning and tomorrow looks like a raw day, that is our system that is going by right now and the next day another upstream has to come through tomorrow. our main band should be gone in about another hour or two and if you want to wait, it is up toward the north bay where things calmer. breezy to windy at times and then turning colder. brief heavy rain for the morning kind of a mostly cooler rain and it looks look the strongest piece of the energy will calm down on friday. warmer sunday into monday, claudine wong, dave? >>> an attack on mitt romney's wife. >> his wife never worked a day in her life. >> the twitter battle that common has started. >> also, he missed most of last season, why buster posey will sit out during the home owner. >>> it will be tough driving most of the bay area. he will give you th

tomorrow is going to be a really dicey day.ill say it again i think they will play just not sure they will play at 1:35, that's my best guess for right now. colder with rain on friday, rain on saturday. sunday and monday looking better, claudine. >>> earth day restoration clean up is on saturday but one project is already on the way. there you see it the workers prepping wood at the bail grist park. about 100 volunteers are going to be using that wood this weekend to help restore a gold rush era mill. a grant from the california state park foundation was given to the park to help make those repairs. >> this is the only operating gristmill which is a flour in mill in the state of california. it's an icon for the valley but also a very important part of california history. >> reporter: the volunteer list is full for the mill restoration project. but you can still sign up for other projects around the city. if you want a link you can head to ktvu.com. today though is the last day to register. >>> bay area sports talk fans know him
