look at the yellow.eaviest parts where the storm is still, well, still making it miserable for people. meteorologist lisa argen will be back with the up to the minute forecast coming up. >>> it is round three of the latest series of storms sweeping through northern california, and it is here. we have live team storm coverage. we are going to begin with our meteorologist lisa argen who is tracking the storm with live doppler hd. it is -- >> it is flooding if fairfax and we are looking at more flooding in marin county. the rain has ended in the north bay, but still this is when the creeks and streams are rising, and you are getting that flooding with the clogged storm drains and perhaps some mudslides. american canyons through vallejo heavier rain to the south and east concord and pleasant hill and walnut creek, 580. castro valley road looking at heavier rain, but you go westward and it has lightened up in san francisco. but over the peninsula we are looking at the urban and small stream flood advisory. yo

right now we are looking at the bay point pittsburgh area and it is looking good as you make your way towards concord. highway 24 this is at the 680 split, traffic is looking good in all directions here. 237, this is near milpitas, and a you make the drive towards sunny veil, no delays, let's check in with mark. >>> we are checking in and we are trying to track all those fast moving rain showers. there is a little activity up towards cape mendocino and there is a chance of a few sprinkles up towards mendocino county. we have a few clouds in napa, san jose 42 and upper 40s at 48. this morning mostly cloudy skies, upper 40s this afternoon, partly cloudy skies in the low-to-mid 50s. we'll see a big batch of clouds and we have a dry weather forecast for your thursday and there is a weak system approaching and this will be generating a few extra clouds and that chance will linger into saturday morning and probably the early portion of your saturday appears to be dry. we are talking about 50s out towards santa rosa and san jose is warming up to 54 degrees and these temperatures will check i

if we are going to be looking at a debt service, we look at a percentage of 1.25. for start-ups, we like to see startups near 1.25, generally closer to 1.5. the fifth c is collateral. i will put it to you this way. on a startup, we like to say 25% to 30% in the form of cash or real estate that has fungible equity in it. a purchase of real estate will count as collateral. pretty much, at wells fargo, we have this process streamlined. i am the front end. after i review the alone, i put it together, put it into underwriting. they will review the file and see if there is a loan file. then you have the of loan) who works with you through the end. so the average time for a 7a loan, which is my focus, about 35, 45 days. if there are other things that need to be looked at, 45 days to 60 days. we are preferred lending partner. we are able to approve a loan up front, close the loan, and then we go back to get the guarantee. i do not have the exact numbers. i should. i do not know how many loans we did last year. it was a lot. i know we were the first lender -- i do not know,

look at that cut. so, i'll glue this up, and then i'll show you how to cut out the top with the jigsaw. it's taken two hours for the glue to cure out, so i can cut these patterns out now, but the trick is using a 5-inch-long jigsaw blade with a woodcutting tooth on it. don't use the short blade, because the length of the stroke would jam into this thick wood and would break it and give you a rough cut. that would be unsafe, too. now, when i make the cut, it's important to hold the base flat to the surface of the wood as i make the cut, and that gives me all the control in the world. and it's a really good idea to wear a dust mask here. [ whirring ] and that, as they say, is that. if you look at that arch, the broken arch, that's just perfect right there. i'll do a little bit more sanding. this is a new type of sander. it has a computer chip in it that senses a load, no brushes and it chases electrons around a metal ring, and that drives the armature. well, it's a phenomenal sander with great built-in d

that work has included really looking doing some additional due diligence and looking at the design the cal trains developed and coast estimates. to review, we had designs proposed two of which really are the one that's would meet our needs in terms of local access and facilitating that station. one of those is a wider bridge option that would allow existing quint street to continue under the tracks while allowing platforms on top. that bridge exceed significantly in the amount of funding that we have available. the other remaining option is a berm option that would essentially extend the railing across quint street closing the existing quint street but facilitating a future station. that would cost about $20 million. there is then a city project for a connector road that would provide alternate access across the tracks by extending a road alongside the tracks up to jerrold avenue. you can still get under the tracks that way. that berm project -- the connector project cost estimate is currently at $7.3 million. we'll discuss the funding plan for that in a minute. other work we've done w

look at that. expecting gusty conditione thunderstorms so with that when you factor in a lot of rain, the gusty winds, then we're talking about potential for downed trees and power lines. kind of messy afternoon and evening on this christmas day. 6:00, it's still looking very wet for a lot of us except for the nor

it looks like that place. it looks like that landscape. i look into this and i see the sharp edges of the land. i see the way the earth is shaped out there. i see the routes in their vessels. i mean, to understand these, this one came out of a 13th century site in southwest colorado and i would sit with these bowls for hours and hours, drawing them into my sketch book because that was the only way i could really understand the complexity of how they got their symmetries to match up because i could never get them to match up in my drawings. i could never do a 100 percent accurate rendition of these because every line was meaningful, every line meant something about how you paint the next line, which is what it's like walking out there, looking for those shapes, looking for water, looking for springs, looking for places where the rain has fallen. it's all the same story out there. there is a 13th century or a 14th century polychrome vessel from below the mugion rim in central arizona. and this is 100 years after the anastazi supposedly disap

oh, look. that's modern history. >> coming right out of edward's air force base. >> the old and the new. >> yeah, that's it. >> now, let's look over here, at this. this isn't red. this is pink. >> okay, that's pink and that's from a pyroclastic volcanic explosion that happened many million years ago. and material blew out just like mount st. helens and-- >> so it's a huge, huge explosion. >> massive explosion and all this material flowed in here and then it settled down and solidified, and it's pink because it was a very foamy material, a very foamy air-filled material. >> wow. >> so that's why it's a different color from the black basalt that was a slow flow that came in later. >> and the red rock which is sandstone. >> sandstone that was at the bottom of the lakes. >> see, i'm learning my geology-- >> isn't it amazing? >> --pretty quickly. yeah, but i guess most people ask these same questions, don't they? >> absolutely, the same questions. they look at all of this and say "why, why, why?" an

and if you look at the financials, look at all the activity.s a matter of fact, earlier we had over a million contracts trade. 850,000 of which were on the cal side. so, judge, people are looking at bank of america, aig, jpmorgan, citi. you talked about citi earlier for a lot of different reasons. i have a feeling -- >> give me a look at bank of america right now. it's above ten bucks. that was a line in the sand for a lot of people. >> right. they were buying it. they had 250,000 open on that ten strike. that's now past it. then they for the 10.5 strike today that expire in about two and a half hours. >> and i like it, i own it, i'll buy more. that's been the stock. meantime the stock has had a great move and analysts are still afraid to come out and say, you know what? i love it. >> you're not afraid, but why do you need it to pull back? >> you don't. >> add to it. you're waiting for it to pull back. >> i've got a decent sized position in it right now, so if i can get it at a cheaper price given where my cost is, which is in the 8s, i'll do i

they say look at roche, look at how he did this and look at steve cohen.lieve it is just mathematically impossible to beat the markets every year. since the inception, steve cohen has had one down year. that was 2008. he lost 19%. steve cohen when all cash. that was the year of the financial crisis. when these all the stuff coming, he probably just sold a lot of it. he saw it early. there were only a few people that's all it as early as he did. he probably took losses on his position. that is why he lost a lot of money. he has not lost since. he is up 10% this year. he believes that it cannot be ran like this. again, my view is and it has always been he kind of insulates i really do not believe that matthew mark, was the fund manager involved, he allegedly had insider information from an expert network that was involved with drugs. that person worked at the drug company. he knew that they were watching him. we were the first to report that they vowed his phone. you know, i do not think he is saying give me inside information. the conversation would have we
