do was put it out there. hey, everybody, we have scholarships, come. >> but they learned it took someone to find the children and take the scholarship offers to them. that person is felicia, a farming star of marin. >> i had scholarships offered by the ballet and i went to the child care center and said who wants to take ballet and he was the only boy of 8 girls that said i do, i do. >> the only reason why i was able to go to marin ballet was because of performing stars. >> performing stars acts as a bridge to lower income kids so they have access to activities outside their community like the ballet. >> it's knowing the community, knowing the parents, knowing the children, having their trust. >> they were a very huge influence in making sure that i had my ballet shoes, my uniform, making sure i had transportation. >> performing stars got him involved. we took it from there, trained him and then moved him off to the national ballet of canada where he completed his training and

probably the finest hardware you can find in a phone anywhere. >> the phone is made of aluminum, two big speakers in front and a cool camera that does multiple tricks. >> but if you ask sales manager jose what really makes customers swoon, the first thing they notice is the feel of it. and that to explain why htc has set up 8 of these boxes in cities around the country. >> with the pop-up show

cleared the scene here on campus at san francisco state university. that includes the stolen cab. we do have video of the suspect. police said going after the suspect. this started just after 2:00 this morning in the south of market area. san francisco police located a stolen cab. that driver took off leading officers on a short chase through surface streets and then the suspect got on southbound highway 280. at that time, the california highway patrol took over the chase which reached speeds of 100 miles an hour. the driver of the stolen cab went all the way to pacifica, turned around and ended up on the san francisco state university campus. he slowed down enough to jump out while the cab was still moving and take off on foot. >> he was dressed in all black. he had a hood on, a hat under the hood. he was just looking at me. >> police just drove that stolen cab away a few minutes ago and cleared the scene. their suspect again is still on the loose. we are live at san

good. >> it looks absolutely terrible. there is thumb's down, and double thumb's down. what we are looking at is 88,000 jobs created in the month of march. the unemployment rate falls to 7.6% but as i tell you each month and i have for ten years, ignore the unemployment number, the percentage there. it is the number of jobs added in the month. so what in the world happened if economists were talking just a few minutes ago about 200,000 jobs they expected added in the month of march. that's something we'll have to look through, the numbers. the numbers came out, i mean, what, about 45 seconds ago. we're talking about the raw top-level numbers here. 88,000 jobs added. jo jon and laura, that's a terrible number. that's almost irrelevant. we are going to look at the participation rate, the number of people looking for new jobs must have fallen. we'll continue to look at these numbers and figure out what's going on. again, this is less than half of what most economists were looking for. >> not nice. all right. thank you very much. >> 5:33 right now. a specific gentleman trying to get the job done today. the world champion giants getting their game into high gear today. >> the home opener just hours away. bob redell at the ballpark with a look ahead. >> reporter: good morning to you, laura and jon. if we could all have a grounds keeper like this at our home. so perfectly man acured afor opening day. a three-game series starting today running through sunday. giants taking on the st. louis cardinals but before today's game, of course, the giants are going to be doing a little celebrating. still in the party mode from winning last year's world series. they will today be raising the 2012 world series flag here at at&t park. the second time the team has done that in three years. you might recall the home opener in 2011 when giants great, willie mays, walked out with the 2010 world series flag. it is not clear if he or a former giants player will be doing the same today. this will not be easy for the st. louis cardinals to digest. the giants took them out in the national league chaps series denying them a shot at the world series. the player who is crucial to making that happen, pitcher, barry zito, who shut out the cards for almost 8 innings in game five, a victory that was considered crucial. barry zito will be the pitcher who will be starting today's game. the first of three against the st. louis cardinals here at the home opener at at&t park. the first pitch is at 1:35. a quick look online at stubhub. there are still tickets av available. bob redell, "today in the bay." the celebration will continue into tomorrow when the giants hand out the first round of bobbleheads. 40,000 fans will get a bobblehead. posy is expected to be around for many years to come. last year, he signed a multi-year extension. it will be fun to get the bobblehead out there. they look great out there. >> we'll see if the forecast will hold. i think it is going to be pretty breezy out there at first pitch, mid-game. >> barry zito on the mound today. >> so excited. want to check in with meteorologist, christina loren, actually live at at&t park. they have the grass all ready to go as well. >> reporter: they do, laura and jon. now, here is the kicker. we're not allowed to go out there on the grass but you know me, i like to walk the line and that's exactly what i'm doing, getting as close as possible without actually touching the grass, which is very nicely groomed, might i add. they have made all the necessary preparations, taken care of everything to make sure today is secure out here at at&t park, so everybody has a good time. the wet the is certainly going to accommodate today's games. we are talking about the upper 50s if we see any sort of wind picking up the ball and carrying it, it will be out toward center field or right center. we could be talking about a panda splash down for the home opener. these boys know how to work this field. you notice those flags are not moving at all. >> so yesterday, we picked up over an inch of rain up in the north bay. we are expecting some low level moisture to tip to produce a little bit of showers as we head through the morning hours. thick fog as well. overall, we are talking about a mix of sun and clouds later on today. a good-looking weekend. a chance for showers as we head through tomorrow morning. as we head through sunday, a little rain in the morning, a nice afternoon. another impressive system on the way. i'm going to time that out for you coming up. we will have showers around for the weekend. you will be able to get outdoors for a few hours saturday and sunday afternoon. out here live, once more, at at&t park, as you can see right now, it is quiet. in just three hours from now, we are already going to see a lot of action. stick with us. we'll be out here until 11:30 showing you as things progress throughout the morning, you know if more and more people get out here, more and more fun. i had to use my windshield wipers coming up the peninsula. coming into san mateo this morning. overall, it wasn't too bad. what are we working with on those rhodes. >> earlier, you said there was an inch of rain in the north bay. with calm winds, this is what you get, lots of fog at the golden gate bridge. that's going to be the case all morning long. the dense fog continues to be a factor at the golden gate bridge. that's where most is concentrated. everywhere else, visibility, not too bad. the bay bridge approach, you can see, lights are on and cars are flowing smoothly. the lights are not on for the metering lights. the car lights are on. that's what i was referring to. you can see in sunol, the fog continue tobs an issue. not really any major slowdowns on 84 through sunol. there is an accident at valley road on 580 westbound that continues to be cleared. otherwise, that's all we've got for you guys. >>> time is 5:38. this is definitely a win/win situation. we'll tell you about the fund-raiser this weekend that would help some would-be brides get their hands on designer gowns at discount prices. >>> we also see a police officer whose quick-thinking actions have him called a hero. we are going to show you this complete video coming up. >>> how are you feeling? give you a live look over san francisco. a lot going on on the city by the bay. got some fog in there. the world champion giants playing an afternoon ball game. what's also going on, it is friday. that's always good news. it is 5:41. >>> new details this morning. a story that happened across the pacific ocean in hawaii. it has turned a bay area police officer into a hero. the off-duty officer literally jumped into action to stop an attack on a tsa officer. this morning, we're hearing from him for the first time. marla tallez with his reaction to some pretty amazing video. >>> one of the great things about this story, it was all caught on tape. the officer is justin rogers out of the punol police department e was on his way back to the bay area after a relaxing vacation in hawaii. he was trying to get through security when he notices this, a tsa officer. here, it is coming. to do her job, she is guarding the passenger exit. she is suddenly attacked by this woman out of nowhere. this woman starts punching her and hitting her. they struggle for about ten seconds or so and we're just letting you see this. now, out of nowhere, you are going to see it, here comes officer rogers. he just clears that glass barrier, strong arms the woman, takes her down. you will see him throw up his arms and let everybody know, yes, he has this handled. everything is under control. you will also notice here, he was only wearing his socks, because he had just taken off his shoes to get through security. the 39-year-old is very humble saying he was just doing what any person would do in his situation. >> in this case, police officer or not, the woman was being assaulted, was defenseless, had her arms up trying to defend herself and somebody needed to help her. luckily, i was close enough to be able to help her. >> rogers actions also being noticed by the tsa. they released a statement saying they are grateful rogers was there to subdue this woman. it turns out the woman is homeless. she was arrested and taken to a hospital for mentally valuation. as for the tsa officer, other than a few bumps and bruises, she is not seriously hurt. a good end to this story. laura and jon. >> pretty dramatic video. >> that officer must have been the high-jump champion in high school the way he cleared that wall. >>> let's take it out to at&t park, christina loren is checking things out as they get the field ready for this afternoon's home opener. how is it looking out there? >> it is looking pretty good. it is really mild out here, jon and laura. i don't need a jacket. temperatures close to 60 degrees to start the day. we are going to see a nice friday. happy friday. i'm live. somewhere, you don't get to see behind the scenes very often. this is a dugout. i want to kind of show you the cool features in the dugout. they have this line of phones. the first one says, bull pen. the next one says press box. gm, you don't want to see this one getting picked up. that means the pitcher will likely be getting pulled. lastly, we have the in-house phone thichlts a very well-organized dugout. they are equipped with cameras in here. what's so cool. you will always, on tv and right here at the park, see the guys sitting up here watching the game. this morning, we're giving you a perspective what it looks like when they are in the dugout looking out on at&t park, one of the most beautiful yards in the entire country. i don't think there is a prettier ballpark. today is going to be pretty nice for the home opener. temperatures are going to be nice and mild in the upper 50s. a little bit of drizzle out here this morning. that will likely be the case as we head out through the first part of the morning. a little bit of sunshine. a mix of sun and clouds and temperatures close to 70 degrees inland. closer to 60 degrees at the coast and mid-60s on the way around the bay. now, coming up, we're going to show you that seven-day outlook, because we are keeping showers in the forecast for the weekend. i want to make sure you are aware of when and how much we are going to get. just so you can plan around that. specially if you want to take the little ones outdoors this weekend. that's coming up. you want to take a look at your drive. a little fog out there this morning. any problems on the roads. anthony slaughter. you can see at the bay bridge, things are moving smoothly. we do have one accident on the bay bridge itself at the treasure island exit. this is westbound. a hit and run. if you take the bay bridge approach, use caution approaching that particular location. typical slowdowns along 4 approaching pittsburg. it slows all the way until pittsburg. another slow spot that we typically see. the pass starting to slow. once the cars get off the other arteries and highways, 880 moving through oakland, moving smoothly. that was yourour troubled spot yesterday. lots of cars moving in from 101 northbound. you can see things are moving smoothly in palo alto as well. >>> thank you very much. it is 5:46. >>> some sad news here. the san jose paramedic shot in the head by a drive-by has unfortunately died. the hunt does continue for the gunman. police say quinn boyer was attacked on tuesday morning after visiting his father's home in oakland when he stopped at the intersection of keller and hanson drive. a gunman in another car shot him. boyer hit the gas pedal propelling his car over the median right into a nearby ravine. boyer did work for the santa clara county ambulance company for two years. investigators at this point don't know if this was a robbery or an attempted carjacking or maybe even road rage. there have been no arrests so far in the oakland police right now asking for any kind of help in capturing boyer's killer. >> friends of a 16-year-old musician killed by a train will honor his memory. donye jonakin was clipped by a train as he walked home. his family says he was a talented musician. tonight, students will hold a memorial and fund-raiser for his family at san jose's lincoln high school where he was a junior. donations from tonight's event will help offset funeral costs. >> a preschool that came under fire last month after a teacher was accused of tying up a toddler is now once again in that spotlight. authorities telling the contra costa times they have received reports of another incident at center point christian preschool. this time focusing on a teacher that pinched a young boy. that teacher named in the complaint no longer works at the school. they closed for several days of staff training after it was revealed a teach are at that school actually tied up a toddler's hands and feet with tape because the toddler refused to take a nap. >> affordable housing again today after an early why he proposal drew criticism from nans. they will discuss ten possible sites for affordable housing. the original plan presented in january was too clustered in their neighborhoods and needed to be spread across town. it was required to zone a number of areas for affordable housing. building that housing is not. >>> community colleges doing something they haven't been able to do for a very long time. that being, add more classes. several community colleges boosting their summer class offerings this year thanks in part to the funding for california's prop 30 initiative. eve several other schools adding dozens of classes as well. schools had to cut summer classes during the recession to try and make up for lost funding. administrators say things finally starting to turn around. >> getting married or know one who is. brides against breast cancer bringing its national tour of gowns to the santa clara. it is a charity group that says wedding gowns new and used at discount prices. proceeds go to support cancer patients and their families. crews will set up dozens of dress racks today at the hyatt regency in santa clara. tickets are required to get into the event. you can register at the brides against breast cancer website. it looks like a win/win. >> they raise money for cancer. 5:49 right now. we have interesting new details that we are learning about apple's new headquarters coming up. >> this week's gadget does what laura teaches to triplets, that is, to share. >>> "today in the bay." good friday morning to you. 5:51 right now. taking a live look outside. pretty clear in the south bay. certainly, not the case. this fog, kind of a shot of the golden gate bridge. other areas. we are going to take a look at those all-important micro climates and the weekend ahead. >>> new details about plans for apple's new cupertino headquarters. apple co-founder, steve jobs, apparently, had a very specific vision in mind. the chronicle's business insider says he wanted the building to look polished with no seams or gaps or even paint brush strokes visible inside. the wood must be maple and hardwood, which means it has to be from the center of the tree and the best glass around the building will be produced in germany and shipped here. the bathrooms and cubicles will be built off site and shipped in. the spaceship reportedly called, will cost $5 billion, up from the initial estimate of $3 billion >>> a major piece of artwork. if you are looking for a wi-fi connection for the apple ipod, scott mcgrew says, don't sweat it. you can use hit. >> karma, a portable, shareable wi-fi hot spot. it is pretty cool. what it does is it allows you to share your wi-fi connection at the airports or train stations, that kind of thing. it is super cheap. now, i know you have seen these sorts of things before. here it is close-up. at&t sells one. verizon sells one. what's different about this. two major factors. first of all, it is dirt cheap. it is $79. secondly, for $14 a month, you are going to get four gigabytes of access. that's a lot of access. to the sharing part. that's the super important part. when you share your wi-fi signal, the person who jumps on your wi-fi signal at the airport, at the train section, gets 100 megabytes of access for free. it doesn't come out of your account. then, you get an additional 100 megabytes for your own account, which is very cool. now, i tried this at a big, big conference where you think 1 gillion people would jump on. not that many did, enough to give me some free access. i'm not totally positive the sharing thing is going to work out for this company. i'll be honest. $79, no contract for a wi high hot spot. just do that. >> how do you alert other people you are using that, so maybe i would know if i wanted to jump on? >> it will come on the network. i'll be notified. i will turn it on in our 6:55 showing of this. we will even do it on your phones. you're notified. i'm notified you are doing it. you are notified as to who i am. >> no password required. >>> no password required. i can't see what it is you are doing online or anything. i'm just aware you have jumped on, which makes it sort of friendly and social. >> good concept. >> using the wi-fi. it is cheap. thank you very much. like my daughter says, sharing and caring. >> it is. very nice gesture. 5:55 right now. i want to check with meteorologist, christina loren. can we call this work? we sent her out to at&t park celebrating the giants home opener. >> reporter: hey. we investigate the giants dugout. let me tell you, no corner will go untouched today. i am checking this thing out to the maximum taking you live to at&t park. hours away from the home opener out here and the excitement is brewing more and more people headed to the station -- excuse me, headed to the stadium as we speak to get things ready to go. hustle and bustle already inside the walls of the park. i can tell you there are a lot of people putting this together just for all you giants fans today is going to be pretty nice. i told you it was mild and you don't need that jacket. i am going to have to retract that. we have pretty steady drizzle out here. go ahead and pull out that jacket along the peninsula. if you live south of 92, forget about it. as we head throughout the day, we're talking about the upper 50s. it is going to be a nice day out here. winds are going to pick up as that area of low pressure heads out of town. highs look pretty good. look at these numbers, 70 degrees for gilroy. mid to upper 60s just about everywhere. low 60s at the coast. we have a pretty good-looking weekend temperaturewise, a chance for showers. i want to make sure you are aware of before you make those weekend plans. stick around. that's coming up in my next report. it is really coming down. watch out for the drizzle. >> we saw that at the golden gate bridge. the good news, earlier as we mentioned, not too bad of a problem. the bay bridge, head lights are on. the toll lights not on. folks zooming on through. no major accidents there. we did have a hit and run earlier at the treasure island on ramp. still trying to get more information about that. doesn't look like it is
