abc's terry moran caught up with one of them, 33-year-old rebecca roche. >> i had a bad feeling whenmoke, and when i saw, after hearing the noise and hearing the second one, it's the boston marathon, it's one of the world's marathons. it's at the finish line. i suspected it was terrorism. it was a moment of what should have been joy and turned into panic and just heart-wrenching fears of the worst. >> roche ran with the words mom and dad written on her legs for her mother and a friend were badly injured by one of those explosions. >>> coming up next, putting aside their rivalry. what new york is doing to show boston its support. >> and putting on a brave face. how boston native mark wahlberg is reacting to the tragedy in his hometown.

my co-anchor terry moran reports. >> reporter: at a high school just outside phoenix, arizona, a mad stalks the hall. it's just a training exercise, but this is every parent's worst nightmare. >> on the ground! these men are learning how to fight the next school shooter. >> can't wait that long. >> reporter: and oddly enough their coach .is 19 0s action film legend steven segal. >> for every second that goes by, i told you, you could have dead children. >> reporter: he knows a thing or two about simulated shooting. but he's not acting here. he's a full fledged member of maricopa county's official posse, under the leadership of sheriff joe arpaio. >> we'll be training, trying to neutralize domestic terrorists without firearms and with firearms. >> reporter: the county's posse will protect the county's schools. it's the highest profile gambit from the man they call sheriff joe. >> if we have to take action, we will take action. if there's some type of catastrophe that's going to happen. >> reporter: and the stakes are higher than ever. >> a caller is indicating she thinks there's someo

now, let me bring in lindsay moran, former c.i.a. officer. author of "blow my cover: my life as a c.i.a. spy." thank you for coming in. we appreciate it. it's a tough day, of course. >> it is. >> cenk: first on the issue whether it was terrorism or not i just want to show a little video here. it's from cnn. you see the first bomb that has already gone off. you see the smoke from it. and the second bomb further down the street you see goes off. when you see two bombs like that go off within about 15 to 20 seconds of each other is that an immediate sign that it's much more likely to be a coordinateed terror attack? >> yes definitely. i don't think there is any question that this qualifies as a terrorist attack because it caused terror and death, and destruction in our country. what remains unclear and unknown is who perpetrated the terrorist attack. it does not necessarily have to be perpetrated by a foreign terrorist group. it could be a domestic situation. it could be an individual. it's way premature to classify it as a foreign terrorist att

a city can come together. >> reporter: even in darkness there is light. >> and that was our terry moranthose recovering from severe injuries are two brothers and each of them lost a leg. 33-year-old j.p. norden and his younger brother paul were at the marathon cheering on a friend when those bombs hit. each one of them went to the hospital not knowing what had happened to the other. their mother spoke to "good morning america's" josh elliott. >> what were those moments like when you first saw your boys? >> terrible. i wish i could take their place for them. it's terrible. for all those people it's -- it's just like i want to wake up and have it not be real. >> and their sister described what it was like to have her brothers in two different hospitals. >> the first question they have asked, they just keep asking about each other. >> that makes me happy to know that they're not caring to know like one is worried about the other one and knows his leg is gone and just like heartbreaking to me. >> those brothers made it through surgery okay but face a long road to recovery. >>> for runners f

so i'm going to pass the mic over to chief of staff moran and director maria sue. >> mr. armentrout, before you go, i have a quick question. i know this was often an issue and may continue to be with the school district, but i was curious what covered in kind services in this year's budget allocation. >> forgive me, i did not bring the breakdown with me. a lot of the funding is going to out of school time and in part it's also recognized within much of dcyf's budget that we put forward. one of the requirements or one of the tenets of in kind is that it was never meant to supplant what we've put in place. so the idea was not to look at existing funding and just say, well, we'll just count that as that. so we've always looked at it for new funding. we've counted that as dcyf has started their new rfp cycle which was actually reviewed this afternoon. there's programs within that, that we are looking towards and counting this but we are looking towards a new funding cycle. >> thank you. >> good afternoon, supervisors and commissioners, my name is maria sue, i'm the director f

commissioner moran said the unthinkable. or you can increase rates, too. which is a possibility, and i appreciate the comment because it suggests the spectrum of things that are at your disposal in case you do go above the 88% risk threshold. there will be other things you need to consider. and whereas the economy appears to be out of the great recession, now in capital letters in the media, i know that all of our cities and agencies are holding tight. they don't want to get anywhere near that financial cliff again. and, so, your work controlling this budget is very important to them. i think one of the things that we have collectively fallen into a deli yum about is the fact there are so many zeroes on these numbers. ~ so, $50 million seems like [snap]. that's how much we save by financing, $350 million. so, it adds up, as they say. so, your continued attention to that will be important. speeding down the celeste -- one of our recommendation is any remaining contingencies be put under the command control of the program manager so that that can be reported

the second item commissioner moran referenced was rate structure. todd and i discussed that yesterday. we had hoped to do some work, preliminary work on that this fiscal year. our time was consumed with the preparation issuance of the bonds so we did not make headway we had hoped. and it is something that did appear on the list of item that we presented to our board last month, as we presented our preliminary budget, work plan and budget to them. and we said -- we had some financial constraints. and we said, this is an issue that would be of great benefit to the wholesale customers to coordinate with san francisco on the assessment of what rate structures might be, what alternatives might make sense for both parties. however, it is not as vital to the success of our agency as a number of other issues that are very critical and very time intensive. so, we have not budgeted time to work on that this coming year. were i to be staying on, we would try to fit something in in some manner, but i suspect there is going to be a period of delay in our own wor

moran, as always, welcome back to "the kudlow report." is there any kind of deal that will end this faa furloughs and all these flying delays? >> larry, isn't this just the kind of thing the american people hate about washington, d.c.? and i hope we can overcome that with a deal to be struck and that work is ongoing. the senate, of course, is in session. there is an effort to get a bill or an amendment on to a bill that's pending before the senate that brings republicans and democrats together. this clearly is not a partisan issue. in fact, in many ways, this is the congress versus the administration, but republicans and democrats in the senate are clearly working together to find that solution. >> well, you know, as an old budget guy, i worked for reagan's omb many years ago, there are two things important, one is reprogram. the second is subaccounts. they have the authority to reprogram subaccounts and, hence, shift money into the controller's account. why don't they just do that and stop all this rig ma role that's making up our whole

the sales tax will add marin is live up froand moran is going up to 8.5 from 8.25. sematech accounting tax will now be 9% up from 8.5%. as santa clara will now be 8.75%. 20 cities across the bay area are seeing their taxes raised. the small percentage sales tax increases for most purchases will me just a few pennies but it adds up with making bigger purchases for example on a $1,000 refrigerator bridge is a san mateo county with a new tax rate will add an extra $5 and sales tax. for a $25,000 vehicle will be an additional $125 in tax. highest tax rate in the bay area will be 9.5%, that is the cities of more out that, have long day in albany. >> it is raining pretty steadily out here. hopefully that will not dampen the spirits of the a's fans. after yesterday's cinderella season. they opened today, opening day for the defending american league west champions. it will play the seattle mariners tonight at 705. the a's fans are obviously hoping and praying that they can have a repeat performance of last year. they pick the a's to finish last and they went on to win thei

terror at the boston marathon with terry moran. >>> good evening and thanks for joining us tonight. here in boston on the day after. maybe the most striking thing about this city the day after the bombings is not just that boston is rising up. of course it is. it's a great american city. but that it is doing so under a kind of armed guard. the police presence here is very strong on the streets. in fact, several blocks behind me there where the finishing line of the boston marathon was, where those bombs went off, they're still blocked off. it's an active crime scene back there. and the presence of the uniformed military personnel patrolling the streets of a great american city. it's a different feel here. but for most people here and around the country, it was the emotions today. flags at half staff. and here in boston, mourning the dead, supporting the survivors, celebrating those life-saving heroes who did so much. they are the focus now that three dead, 8-year-old martin richard, a little boy who loved baseball, was at the finish line to cheer on the runners with his family. 29-y

let me first of all thank senator moran for his leadership. he's been at the forefront of this effort. and i have been very proud to be a member of his team which now includes senators from the states that are affected and many more will be affected. more than 40 states around the country have these contract towers which are vital not only to r safety, but also economic development and jobs. what's at steak here is the risk to air traffic that -- stake here is the risk to air traffic that are minimized, but also economic development in areas like new haven, where tweet airport would be substantially impacted. it isn't just the life star flights that come into the airport, or the organ transplants that fly in by private plane, but also the economic development in the new haven area, bioscience, and medical research that is aided by the airport there that would be very substantially impacted by the closing of that air traffic control tower. and so this move has widespread implications in the regions that are affected and across the country in ai
