in an otherwise hilly city. we are looking at different ways to allow people to have safe and secure areas to leave their bikes, if they have their own, but also look at ways to bring bicycle rental companies for the city's bike share pilot program. if people did not want to wait in line for a train, they could spend the day running their bicycle along the beautiful waterfront. frankly, when i visited the first time when i was 22, i rented a bike and rode across the golden gate bridge. this is something i am excited about and hope that we can deliver on as a valuable piece to our transportation strategy. satellite parking is another strategy we are looking at on a lot of different fronts. our goal is to generally discourage car use in close proximity to the water areas. what we're looking to do is to find higher volume parking opportunities further away so that we can use existing transit lines or other shuttle opportunities that would bring folks from those locations into the waterfront areas. there are some ex

hilly place like san francisco, the part should last several years. >> even if you're a bad driver you should get 60 to 70,000 miles. it looks like a high performance clutch not made for the cityills. >> reporter: but apparently it's just fine for racing all over europe like mark wahlberg and charleze theron in "the italian job." we found more than two dozen online complaints from mini owners though say their clutches failed while the car was still under warranty. and many say they too were told it was due to driver abuse. the solution? it may not be practical but it is a consideration. >> avoid hills. that's about the only way. in san francisco? figure that one out. [ laughter ] >> reporter: now, after our consumerwatch volunteer chuck made a few calls, mini agreed to do eli's repair for free and the company tells us, like most carmakers, it does see more problems with accelerated clutch wear in areas with hills and heavy traffic like san francisco. if you have a problem, call our volunteers right now at 1-888-5- helps-u. >> amazing what a phone call will do. >> reporter: what our volunteers can do. they are magicians, let me tell you. >> chuck was working! thank you. >>> lad

city, abbottabad is actually a holiday resort. a lot of people retire here. people have summer houses here. hilly area in pakistan in the north of pakistan. it's very picturesque. it's quite a sleepy town really. a lot of amazement. but amongst their midst was osama bin laden and, of course, the irony that you can't walk 100 meters or so without seeing a military installation here. >> suarez: you've had a chance to talk to people today. tell us a little bit about it. were they surprised? what were they saying? >> complete shock. and amazement. i met one gentleman who lives only a few doors down from his house. he literally drove past it every day on the way to work and said he had absolutely no idea that osama bin laden could be his neighbor. he did say that the compound seemed strange. it was a very unusual structure, much larger than any other house along this neighborhood from what i've seen so far too. of course, the high walls we've been hearing about and footage we've seen is also unusual. however, as is often the case in back stan, he said to me, there are some very rich people who do own

distances between major israeli cities and the palestinian state but also from the geography of the land. the 60-mile strip along israel's coastline lies below the hilly heights of the west bank. with control of that high terrain, terrorists could easily target and terrorize much of israel's population, just as they have from gaza, but with even more deadly accuracy. when israel unilaterally withdrew from gaza in 2005, israel's leaders had hoped that the palestinians would demonstrate they could live peacefully with israel. instead, hamas assumed power and israelis living in the southern part of israel have had thousands of rockets and mortar attacks directed at them. so far this year, more than 300 rockets and mortars have been fired from gaza, terrorizing countless families in israel. the threats to israel from the palestinian state with its borders of the green line are clearly understood in this context, especially since the palestinian authority president abbas' fatah party has inked an accord with hamas to form a unity government earlier this month. although welcomed by president abbas, hamas still calls for destruction of the state of israel. t
