evan low, councilmember and former mayor. and president of the legal education fund. we heard about the criticism coming from asian americans on this. a significant number of them are in the south bay where you're based. is it broad based or is it coming from certain sectors within the asian american community? >> well, what we're seeing is predominantly the chinese american community who are protesting this particular issue, and we know that the asian american community is quite broad. and when you look at the enrollment rates of cambodians, loatians, many other communities are disenfranchised. so when we look at this, it's important to look at all demographics. >> you had asians protesting outside your office today, as a matter of fact, on this issue. what is their main criticism? >> well, the protests occurred outside tassembly member paul fong's office, urging him to vote no on this bill. what's important is that we clarify and talk about twhat's n the bill. we need to acknowledge and thank senator hernandez for the intent of trying to expand the pool of opportuni

that's why store-bound ceo evan dash is adopting both high-tech and low-tech innovations -- from a blender that can accomodate different sized containers... to a washing machine that requires no hook- ups or electricity -- just a crank and some water. dash says social media has given his four- year-old company a huge boost. he says his instagram account.. featuring home-grown celebrity chefs sharing healthy recipes.. has a quarter-million followers because consumers want content. we're all about the messaging of unprocessing your food, healthier lifestyle." to reach out to young customers and overseas buyers... 'established companies' are also combining more functionality with less space... like the coffee maker that offers both a single-serve capsule system.. and a filter basket to brew an entire pot. it's getting easier to bring brands into new countries. for example, hamilton beach is getting into asia, india, brazil and other markets like that." international attendees and exhibitors now make up 30% of the housewares show... and they're eating up compact appliances... like the drink ma

evan seen any grass in the long time. visibility is quite low right now. lower visibility indicates note is heavier in your area. our radar continues to show the snow generally it's north of king county and generally north of 80 at this hour. as you can see, it's moving to the east down to the south pier this entire area will sees no today. it's going to be at its heaviest during our rush hour commute this morning as we move to lunchtime. that is the concern. the timing of this note but not the amounts. we will get two-3 in. but it will hit in the rush hour commute. looking into portions of the county the snow is heaviest along this line to the extreme northwest of cook county and to lake county most of that heaviest snow is west of '94. down to the south you can see along 88 right through downers grove we have the potential for quick snow- covered as that snow continues. we are dealing with this note and really a slow commit a through the morning. it will start to exit the region from northwest to southeast later today. probably after lunch when we clear

evans. no republicans are running... so dart will be unchallenged in the general election. as expected, voter turnout across cook county was at or near record lows. barely 13 percent of eligible voters in chicago bothered to cast ballots. voter apathy was driven by a lack of contested high-profile races. in the suburbs, the turnout was only slightly better -- around 15 percent. more republicans than democrats cast ballots in the suburbs, because the republican ballot for governor featured the close race between bruce rauner and kirk dillard. on non-binding ballot issues, voters in chicago supported limits on the capacity of gun magazines, and a prohibition on guns in restaurants that serve alcohol. voters opposed an increase in taxi fares. a routine takeoff by a news helicopter suddenly went wrong, plunging the chopper onto a downtown seattle street. the pilot and a photographer were killed. a man whose car was hit by the chopper suffered severe burns and is in critical condition. camera man bill strothman had worked at k-o-m-o since 1979. gary fitzner was a veteran pilot. a spokesman with the n-t-s-b says witnesses reported hearing an "unusual

evans, cbs news, los angeles. >> jeff: today's the fifth anniversary of the start of the bull market on wall street. the low point on march 9, 2009, the s&p 500 is up 175% or nearly, that means if you had 100,000 in an s&p index fund your total return today would be nearly $309,000. for more we're joined by jack otter, the editor of baron's.com. the stock market has only had five bull runs this long. what went into this one? >> well, first of all, just as what goes up must come down, it works the other way too. generally if the stock market in the u.s. loses more than half, you have probably got a bull market around the corner. but the federal government was leaving nothing to chance. first of all there is the stimulus program, more importantly, the federal reserve buying trillions of dollars worth of bonds and keeping interest rates at rock-bottom level. in fact, the economy in the u.s. may not seem so great to a lot of people but we're doing a lot better here than they are in europe or japan. the danger is that we might be on a sugar high. >> jeff: typically on average we have a correction which say dropb

level that we've not seen since the winter of 2003 where by april we had seen record low storage for nat gas. tim evansld possibly bring nat gas to about the $5 level but on this report we're trading lower, $4.37. believe it or not the chatter in the pits right now is about warmer temperatures ahead especially with the first day of spring today. of course, traders are saying are we going to have that catch-up period for some of these inventories to catch up before it starts to get really hot. guys, back to you. >> all right, jackie, thanks so much. >>> there's no question coal as a fuel source is controversial. but with nat gas prices up sharply in the last few months it's also not going away anytime soon. in fact, demand has been so high that miners are getting ready to restock dwindling supplies. hey, scott. >> reporter: hey, scott. they have a lot to be excited about here in coal country for the first time in a while. this is the powder river basin really part of the richest coal-producing area in the country and everything about this is big. behind me that contraption there is known as a dragline.

low ones right now. they do not know. wey are anticipating -- heard charlie evans tell betty liu we would see a quick rebound in the secondat we will not know that until the middle of the year. we will not get that data until july. >> there may be a few months where we do not know what we are operating with. know the central bank has been trying to stimulate a wealth effect through its easing money. trading near record highs. shouldn't that trickle down and help? crexendo's what you would hope. we have seen a little bit of it with people who own stocks individually -- the wealthier individuals. market returns, dividends, have been going up. we look at the wealth effect through the dividend and interest payments. but home equity extraction has been falling. people have not been taking as much out of their houses, even though home prices have been going up. is the average person going to spend? that is a dilemma for fed officials. that is why you have dissension. the economy could still need the stimulus. the average person is not going to be able to spend. >> we do not want consumers to be using their homes like piggy bank
