raid agents raided computers and web servers and other materials knocking several sites offline it's an unprecedented move critics are saying and i will try to make sense of what the heck is going on afghanistan is the war that we have to win we do not have an option. well they may not have an option but is the president ready to bring home the troops that's the subject of his big address tonight for the american people at eight pm but how many when and what will it mean for the rest of america's longest war. the end of the press conference everyone's been waiting for or at least if you're a reporter federal reserve chairman ben bernanke he took to the podium today with more bad news but is he misleading the tealeaves when it comes to the economy we'll bring you the details in just eight that. meeting it's wednesday june twenty second coming live out of washington d.c. and he's the captain of any watching our t.v. . well of all the server hosting contingency plans on the books here's one they probably missed a web server takedown and a seizure by the f.b.i. that's exactly what took p

. >> reporter: and the offline battle began.nni, a 27-year-old teaching assistant was one of the food soldiers who would spread the flames. lena, whose father had been imprisoned by the government, was determined to track each beat of the offline revolution online, armed with only a computer and her camera. she drove to the center of the protests in rural tunisia. what finally inspired you to get in the car and drive there? >> the fact that the traditional media wasn't doing their job. they were either hiding reality or telling lies. >> reporter: the reality was shocking. lena said she learned that the government was opening fire on the protesters. >> when i went to the first house, i just started crying. my hands were shaking. especially when i saw the corpse of the -- of a young man of 20 or so. his family, his mom who was crying. they encouraged me to take a picture. >> so the families wanted you to tell the world what had happened to their children. >> yes. yes. they were saying that ben ali is a criminal, that the world has

the reactors are offline for a week while the system is tested.res encourage jelly fish populations. >>> well, you probably think you have heard every possible excuse for plane delay. here is a new one perhaps. turtleles on the tarmac. 150 of them paced one by one across a runway at kennedy airport in new york today. in kind of a slow motion stampede. more tonight from abc's lisa stark. >> what takes off at nearly 170 miles an hour. the other averages three miles an hour. this is what happens when they meet. >> we have a couple of turtles stopping the access road here off to the right. >> did we really use the word storming about turtles. >> they were headed across one of jfk main runways and on to a sandy spot to lay their legs. ieggs. >> the turtle in front of you. >> yeah, they are off to my right. there is two of them and then there is another third one kind of off. >> the great turtle roundup was underway. >> let me know more turtles on the runway. advise when you are ready to get them. >> i'm ready to enter the runway, sir. >> did you -- was

the obama administration says about 130 million barrels have been taken offline at the same time demands increasing. the administration had hoped that opec countries would boost supply but that hasn't happened yet. analysts say another driver is politics. federal chairman ben bernanke this week offered a gloomy economic forecast -- high gas prices could keep a damper on the economy. how much does politics have to do with this going into an election year? >> i think it's fair to say politics enters into any kind of decision like this. clearly, the president sees the potential for high oil prices as a threat not only to the economic growth but to his re-election next year. however, any president would view oil prices that way. >> reporter: republican congressman jason chafettz calls it a band-aid. >> while releasing 30 million barrels may make the price of gas go down for a few days or weeks it is not going to solve the problem. the house republicans have been adamant in saying we got to solve the problem so we don't run into this. >> reporter: chafettz says the answer is more drilling an

to power shortage is looming because the tsunami and earthquake crippled the plants and put many offline for safety reasons. the government has set an energy reduction target of 15% during peak time hours to avoid blackouts. peak shift is popular in europe. >> reporter: this tokyo-based maker is a power saving leader in japan. they saved 30% from energy from the target more than week announced the 15% savings plan. the company is trying to shift its consumption away from peak hours. so it's been asking all employees not to plug anything into wall outlets between the hours of 1:00 and 4:00 p.m. at business meetings, workers are required to bring laptop computers. they cannot charge their cell phones between 1:00 and 4:00 p.m. and in case they forget, some of the companies' walls are covered up. japan's local factories are also making power saving airports. diapers normally operate morning until night but to reduce consumption, they are considering stopping in the late hours. >> workers did not have any idea what they could do. workers are viewing this challenge as an opportunity. >> repor

in reading the report, i found it everything i had heard from me-- the pac in board meetings and offline. i appreciate that you were able to memorialize it in a report to us. it is an interesting but concise summary of the year. if anybody wanted to understand the pac and get the level of how important you are to us, i think they could see it in this one report. it is incredible. i just do not think the public understands the commitment to the volunteering and being able to be the buffer of some of that heat that i witnessed at those meetings, the community conversations. i am really in off of the graciousness of pac members in not engaging in the anger, but really taking that information in and of passing it on to the board. i am grateful for that. that really does speak to the years of buildup and trial and error and how you have been able to find your footing and move well within the district. i want to thank you all for that. i also want to talk about the bit of push back that happened. i think it is great. i also felt empowered enough to push back on the push back and not feel we ar

so far, we are forced to bring the reactors offline to guarantee the safety of operators. consequently, more than 1,400 workers are still working on-site. not even knowing how much radioactivity we are exposed to. tepco should procure the proper numbers as soon as possible and make sure that they have all of the protective gear. there should be a strong safety management system. >>> let's switch our focus to other nuclear plants in japan. the prime minister will seek the municipalities for early resumption of halted nuclear reactors. many cities and towns are reluctant to accept the routine suspensions before the disaster at the fukushima daiichi plant. speaking to reporters on friday, federation chairman also mentioned about moves of the utilities to ask businesses to reduce consumption in the summer. >> translator: five more reactors will go through more inspections by august. if the suspended nuclear power plants are not restarted, that will leave 14 reactors operating in japan. >> he apologized for the failure to fulfill the biggest duty. he said the power federation i

being offline minimizes the risk? >> to some degree. however, it's like fukushima in slow motion. tipping point was reached in the first few moments of the tsunami. the tipping point is when we reach 1,014 feet above sea water. at that point all hell will break loose. we're not there yet, floodwaters are going down. >> just so it's clear, the water hasn't gone up 1,000 feet. that's sea level. this is a river it begins at 900 feet above sea level? >> if it goes seven more feet, it's going to be really bad. >> and then what happens? this nuclear power plant same design as fukushima? >> that's right, it's a carbon copy of the general electric reactor at fukushima. there are eerie parallels twenty two, but this accident is in slow motion. >> they'll have more time to clamp down, remove the waste. is is the issue of waste in a pool again something to be worried about? >> exactly. there's 600,000 to 800,000 pounds of high level nuclear waste. yes, the plant has shut down temporarily, but there's large quantities of nuclear waste on site. >> los alamos has a dozen does he, 3.5 miles from

feel free to say we'll talk about this offline. >> that's an excellent question. we do in certain areas. we just don't do it as an all inclusive collective conversation. like you'll have m.t.a. and part get together and talk. and with the san mateo county transit. those three will get together and talk. and you'll get all of the county with the county of alameda to talk about mutual things. that's something san francisco hasn't jumped into the forefront on, like mutual aid issues. it's an excellent idea to probably have all the leaders either get together maybe once a quarter and talk about what's going on, because with transit, with bart, with all the commuter-type ways of coming into san francisco, clearly our criminals are going somewhere else and committing crime and their criminals are coming to our city. i think this would be a perfect segue to that. commissioner mirkarimi: perhaps we can all give it thought and figure out a way if there is any relevance to this template and how we can further that along. it's time san francisco i think is talking more forma

. >> your testimony indicates four servers were taken offline on april 19 before you pulled the plug on all 130 servers. can you tell us what information was different that was stored on those initial four servers? >> well, they were -- these were part of a larger network of machines, and we believe this was just the first entry point that the hacker may have used to get into the network, and upon discovering them, we immediately shut them down. but there were other servers that were also attacked by the hackers as well. >> some media reports indicate sony's servers may not have had up-to-date patches or firewalls prior to the attack. is that true? >> that's actually patently false. servers were fully up to date, fully patched, and, in fact, we had several layers of firewalls in place, also contrary to many of the things that you may have read on the internet. as you know, the internet ant always a reliable source of factual information. >> and you state that you believe the cyberattack on sony was unprecedented in both size and scope. can you explain why you believe it is unpreceden

reactor four was offline for inspection, but the status of its spent fuel pool became a concern. an inability to keep the fuel cool led to hydrogen explosions in all four reactor buildings. tokyo electric power company used seawater and then freshwater to control the reactors. the nuclear and industrial safety agency revealed in a recent report that full meltdowns happened in reactors one, two, and three between five and 80 hours after the earthquake. it is also likely the fuel burned through the reactor pressure vessel and is now at the bottom of the containment vessel. in the same report, the agency said an estimated 770,000 terrabecquerels of radiation leaked into the air in the six days after march 11, that's nearly double the estimate released in april. the accident at fukushima daiichi released several radioactive substances into the air, sea and soil. among them, trace amounts of the highly toxic plutonium have been detected. 88,000 people have been forced to leave a large area around the nuclear plant because their homes are too close to the damaged facility. the majority

we can talk offline about that. commissioner campos: i would also encourage the same thing with other supervisors, to the extent they see something on the list that should give higher priority, that you are open to that discussion because we will have a better sense of the concern that people have in these neighborhoods. thank you. commissioner chu? commissioner chu: following up on the 15 mile per hour zone near schools, that is a good idea because we often hear from parents about people speeding through. just a question for you about whether there is -- whether it requires an environmental impact study or is this something that we can do without? >> with this particular project, it is just signs. there are some criteria that have to meet, but in general, most of these schools will qualify for this signing a spirit pretty straightforward commissioner campos: thank you. >> i will also say, the enforcement and outreach, evaluation, will be discussed and has been discussed at the task force meetings that are ongoing.

and we already are starting to prepare to take tunnel 1 offline. narrator: the construction of tunnel 3 is vital for maintaining the sustainability of new york's drinking water infrastructure. but the pipeline is useless if there's not a reliable supply of clean water within it. hurwitz: the city bought up land around the reservoirs to prevent it from development. it provides assistance to local residents to see that there's no pollution of the reservoirs. it's much more cost effective to prevent pollution and to protect a source of water than to remove it at the drinking water treatment plant. lloyd: what epa said to us was, "you can have an exemption from filtration "if you keep this undeveloped, "and if you can manage the wastewater so that it does not pollute your water supply." and we feel that we've reached the point where we can really keep it clean enough to drink unfiltered for the indefinite future. and new york city is in a small club of cities that actually have that filtration avoidance waiver. narrator: while municipalities are respon
