get the natural gas out. to test it you want to turn it an eighth of a turn and turn it back to the way it it was. notice the little thing? that's going straight with the flow of the pipe that means it's open. if it's across that means you turned off the gas. the eighth of a turn you didn't turn it off you just moved it. these are in better shape. if you can get to this valve, safely, the building's collapsed on it you can't get to it you have to use the one in the street. pg and e put all the meters outside the houses in a lot of the neighborhoods, these are pretty easy to get to. they are easy to find. if you can find the little round circle in the sidewalk. if you look directly at the house you will find this meter and this shut off on the ground floor. in is a closeup of the shut off. in is the wrench i recommend you you use it for other things. they are cheap and they will work. this is great because you can use it somewhere else if you have to. an adjustable open end wrench. a diagram are off/on. shut o

would you say in order to get russian gas prices lower china has been offering russia as in gas prone and other companies a stake in some joint projects in china. either in transporting gas or industry being it should do it but if you look all that is surely interesting but it definitely requires expert assessment. what do you imagine transportation tronson after head mr talkative has taken part in the visit is infrastructure already ready to start deliveries since six months or is there still a work place to be done. we certainly need to do the prepared to work premier li we need to grieve on the routes and the prices. won't take long judging from the experience of building in oil pipeline from russia's rodino to china's east coast pipeline that stretches to three kilometers across russian territory and another nine hundred kilometers across china the corporations involved in the project including this a talker of transnet managed to build this pipeline within a very short period of time modern technology and its capabilities make pipeline construction operation even when the hearing

signs of the gas boom are everywhere. new roads, tanker trucks, new stores opening in downtown wellsboro. unemployment is down as well in this otherwise relatively poor region. it's not easy to find opponents of fracking here. most everyone seems to think it's the way of the future. just over 300 kilometers west, in youngstown ohio, this sense of optimism has been literally shaken. in 2011, there were 11 small earthquakes here. before, there were none. jeff dick is a geologist. to him the reason is obvious. a disposal well where fracking brine is injected deep into the earth. >> that belief is based on the proximity of the earthquakes to the injection, the timing of the earthquakes to the injections and recent seismic data that weave got that show that there is a left-lateral fault located about 3000 feet below the depth of injection for this particular well. >> fracking has brought jobs and tax revenues to the city. but the mayor had little choice. he called a halt to the fracking -- at least temporarily. >> you know, i

conventional gas that shale gas is not relevant to it in the same way that it is and there are different you know different political authorities different have different attitudes towards shale gas but the other unconventional that is really having a big impact is what's called title oil and that uses similar technologies and you know the u.s. everybody always saw the u.s. production continue to go down imports go up the u.s. now is increased its oil production by twenty five percent and i noticed in the russian now there's a lot of discussion about particularly going back to places like west side stablished oil fields and using these technologies because for russia maintaining an increase seen its oil production is also a national objective. resources and for many years many instances of the twentieth century twenty first century people have been saying that one day there will be a crisis of production that the world will run out of resources when do you think this is been a very familiar question in fact in the eight hundred eighty s. both in the united states and in the russian empir

so it appears perhaps that this smoke or gas device was tear gas, we have tear gas, three guns, awe bulletproof vest and maybe a riot helmet on the suspect in custody. this has all of the markings of something that was well planned die bolically planned let's say. >> we have 14 dead, 50 wounded at local area hospitals, ten of the victims died at the scene. here's some of the details we're getting from the witnesses in case you're just joining us, one heard 10 to 20 shots, that they heard an explosion, that people were screaming and that the fire alarm was pulled also. then that mass chaos that happened out into the reception area. we looked earlier at video from a cell phone camera and it was interesting to see because there was a lot of confusion and a lot of panic and people crying, there was one man who was covered in blood. but then you saw some people just standing by. and observing it all. clearly they were either at the concession buying or just unaware of what was happening inside the movie theaters because they have a lot of screens at this movie theater. we're unsure how many screens

that is why there was no gas meter and that is why they cannot turn off the gas. the gas meter itself had been removed. they're waiting for the crews to get out your turned off. the good news is that no one was in the house during the fire. it was unoccupied when the crew got out here they were afraid that the fire would spread to a new house. in fact, it did cause some damage. you can see the roof line on the house next door. there was one person inside the that evacuated themself but it appears that it is just an exterior problem. fire investigators say they will send in some of their investigators to take a lick at this and see what started the fire. >> darya: i am sure a lot of people have a question for pg&e. since the san bruno blast, when there is a big fight and the disaster, maybe you can not give in to shut the valve off right there, so they are concerned, does pg&e have a way to shut off gas remotely or from another area? >> reporter: right, and probably part of that is because they did not to shut off the entire natural gas for the city of martinez. so

that's tear gas. we thought that the police were using tear gas on somebody, we didn't know what was going on. that's when they told us, try to get out somehow. there was only one exit at the top of the projector screen, i told everybody walk up the stairs and start heading up north. >> what was it like inside the theater eight where you were? were people in chaos? were they screaming? how many people were injured. >> there were two that i saw injured but it wasn't chaos, it was more so -- everybody thought it was a part of the movie, that it was something that was going on like a promotional stunt or something. at first everybody is dumbfounded. after i got my keys and ran back to my seat to get my keys, there are still people sitting there waiting for the movie and continue. there's something wrong, we need to leave now. we're getting out the exit and there are still groups of people sitting in the theater like nothing is going on. >> you were finally able to get to the top of the balcony and everyb

that was a tear gas cans going off. i don't know if he had a flash bang or something but there was a loud explosion before the part of the movie and before we started to cough really bad. >> steve: james camon was in the theater adjacent to the shooting. we spoke to you a whole ago. the case of the multiplexes you hear racket next door and figured it was part of the movie and ther getting to scary stuff because it sounds real. >> you have three theater playing the same movie and you have three surround systems and each theater is full to capacity. and the buildings shakes in the movie theaters and that's what we thought it happened. the scene died down and there was calm in the movie and that's when the chaos started to take off. i don't know if it was the guys in the movie house and get down. and we knew things were not right. >> peter: james, did anyone return fire? was there any resistance or effort to take down the gunman in the theater or how hoe escaped and was apprehended out back. >> i was next door to where it

, both in conventional gas, methane type gas in addition to shale gas, which will probably come last. we'll fine out in the next five or ten years but in the next couple of years. and china's role in the international gas markets will change when supply is plentiful. >> so ed, how do you respond to the question of whether we're being -- letting our hearts lead us when it comes to the prospect of being more independent from the entanglements of the middle east as a result of this? >> i'm not moved in a lot of ways. by that -- i think there's much more consensus on this issue than otherwise might be the case. clearly the u.s. has broad international interests, clearly mike is right in talking about the role of oil. i'm just thinking about the role of oil in the middle east since i've been looking at the knowledge and others in the room have been. when the u.s. was first interested in oil in the middle east, other than commercially developing it by companies, in the -- at least modern history. it was make sure that russia didn't get control of the middle east oil, and when the cold war w
