anything that's portable and is battery powered will make a huge difference in the type of disasters we're facing. we can leave it with the patient, move it with the patient, i know they have a whole list of other things they want and we have to take a lack at that and see what we can actually do. >> i do have one question and it deals with licensing. we're going to have physicians performing medical operations and they aren't licensed in the state, does that present any kind of issue for the emergency response? >> so the state of california has the disaster health volunteer system. and you can sign up on there and they will look at the credentials within 24 hours and say if -- that's the extent, though, they don't do any background checks. so the locals have to kind of develop their own policies and again that is something we're working on. we have a lot of great doctors and nurses in san francisco and knowing they would be willing to respond in case of a disaster is important. capturing that information on dhv and know they would be able to go to other facilities if need be is one

it's portable. it's not something you would take on vacation -- >> guest: not in your backpack. >> it's designed for your house. i have access to photos and video, i have access to games, and one of them is monopoly. so, again, if i wanted to play monopoly with the family, i could have them put away their screen, and we all gather around the table and look at this screen, and it's really the exact same monopoly game that you know and love but done electronically, so a little bit more fun. so here we have the game, and we're going to play. >> guest: and how long will the battery last on this thing? >> about a couple of hours. so, again, really designed for that portability aspect of it. okay. now we're ready to roll. so interesting thing here. so here's my dice, but because it's touch -- >> oh, you can shake the dice up. >> i can shake the dice up, and then it rolls, and it'll automatically move. and then ask me do i want to buy, right is? because i landed on it. i say, yes, i'd like to buy. so it's

and this is portable monumentality. we told him there are great portable monument works of art all around the bay area. not so much in san francisco, but certainly in oakland. in the east bay. there are some facilities left in the city. being an acute politician, he soon realized what that meant. it was the answer to a political problem. if you put a piece of art in a neighborhood, community members will bicker about it endlessly. if it is only there to be there three months, that is something else coming in deed. i could see a light bulb above his head when we said that. -- something else, indeed. one could just create art paths out of durable materials upon which you could amount to such works of art. then the entire city, given the supply of createive talent, the whole city could be a revolving work of art. that would be wonderful. that is what black rock city is. why not transpose that to san francisco? i think the city is now looking at doing art paths for that purpose. it would not be hard, given the abundance of

one thing we learned from hurricane katrina, people really rely on their portable electronics and theirwe say here's a charging station tied up to the generation. the essential coffeepot. >> yes. >> maybe a computer, you can check your e-mail with. >> yes. we have our charging station here. and then over here you can see we've got a whole variety of things, including the all-important different tags. so, lawrence, do you want to talk a little about the tags? >> sure. people want to know what do these tags mean. is my building safe or unsafe. these are the city owe initial tags. staying in your home doesn't require that you get a tag. it just means that you use common sense and maybe get help from people who might be around who can help you evaluate whether it's a safe place to stay. >> you might want to know because regular city services are disrupted, you might want to know when trash pick up is, if you need to get clean water, et cetera. also in the neighborhood support center, that kind of information would be available and we've got a little of that up here. >> trash pick up resumes

it is designed for the portability aspect of it. now we're ready to roll. here's my dice but because it is touch -- >> you can shake the dice up? >> i can shake the dice. it rolls and it automatically moves. then it asks do i want to buy? i say yes, i would like to buy. it is the game that you know and love. >> so can i get the $500 in the free parking pot? >> it is the standard game. >> i always play that way. >> now, it is your turn. >> i get to be the iron. thank god, i'm visiting. >> you're just visiting. >> i want to try to shake the dice. >> that's a good company. i like the utilities, i think they are a good buy. now it is your turn. >> my turn. >> there you go. >> i don't worry about money, the money floating around, it is all done electronically. >> can you -- >> you can do everything you can do with a normal monopoly game. correct. >> ok. like microsoft surface was, the original surface a couple of years ago. >> correct. that was done for more commercial applications. this is an all in one, this is not designed to play games, it is one of the bene

from the dutch room to the short gallery, they bypass valuable works of art that were small and portablet more than some of the other art they stole. >> the two, big rembrandts and the vamere, those three pieces account for 90% of let's call it $500 million, $400 million, whatever the mix, of the value. >> reporter: another big question, why did the thieves bother taken a golden finial that sat on top of a flag? at first, it seems they atechted to steal the flag itself. but it proved to be too difficult to take down. >> they wanted very badly to get that flag. that's always seemed to me to be the clue that is the most interesting. and i know the f.b.i. has spent a lot of time trying to figure that out. visiting, talking to, associations who are involved with napoleonic memorabilia to see was there a bounty for one of these banners? >> reporter: why did the thieves want that flag so badly? is it possible they were given a specific list of artwork to steal? by a collector who especially loved those 13 works of art? that brings us to another theory. one that has been made popular by hollywo

, again, passing things that any art expert would say, my god, these are two raphaels, small and portablewhy wouldn't you take those? it's a great mystery to the theft. >> another great mystery is this painting by edouard manet. the oil painting was taken from the blue room on the first floor. >> it hung right below manet's portrait of his mother. it was about 8 by 10 and it was in a gold gilded frame and it was here. >> even though motion detectors picked up the thieves' trail by the entrance on the first floor and all throughout the second floor, there are no records of anyone entering the blue room. rick abbot says in the time he worked at the museum, the motion detectors never failed. but he also says it wasn't impossible to avoid the detectors. in fact, he knew exactly how to do that. it was a game he used to play at night to help pass the time on his rounds. >> you would walk all kinds of crazy ways. some places, you'd have to go around the perimeter of the room or you'd have to go right through the center, you'd have to duck down or you'd have to kind of squat and waddle and do all

it was near some portable classrooms where police say the gunman committed suicide. classrooms were filled with children in a hard of hearing class. all the children killed at this school today were southeast asians. from families one official says already traumatized from the war they left behind. families who had sought safety in america. >> 10 years after the shootings in that stockton schoolyard, one of the children wounded talked about how that day affected him. and so did his brother who was not hit by the bullets but suffered psychological wounds of his own. >> reporter: eric and bryant hill know firsthand the horrors children suffer in a school shooting. they survived one 10 years ago in stockton, california. five children died. 30 children and teachers were wounded when patrick peardy walked on to the playground at recess and opened fire. eric was 8 years old when a bullet slammed into his back. it remains lodged near his spine. >> i still have the bullet in me, yeah. i don't feel it very often. only on long car rides. >> reporter: the emotional injuries wer

for the next nine years, the group bounced from temporary home to temporary home, meeting in a portablewhile and then a middle school class radio. hillary kept the group on tax, show up at every board meeting, a committee hearing where there was a chance to be heard by the powers that be. there were no other kids doing that outside of our little unit. >> reporter: time and time again, hillary says, they were told they would never get what they wanted. until, that is, they did. ashland's new $25 million youth center opens this spring. >> it's real pleasure to be here. >> reporter: it was alameda county supervisor nate miley who first championed their cause, eventually corralling millions in redevelopment money to make the dream come true. >> you haven't seen it yet? let's go see. >> reporter: hillary, now working for the sheriff's department will oversee the youth center at new fitness center. she is still pinching herself that all this actually happened. >> it's crazy. it's mind boggling. >> thinking in my head we did that. >> reporter: but just as the youth center gets up and running,

like a portable solar panel, which allows smartphones or other mobile devices to be charged with sunlight. that gives chancellor merkel a fashion brainstorm. >> so, could we now make handbags with a solar panel on the flap out of this? that would be practical. you would always walk facing the sun. >> merkel also visited software giant s.a.p., which asks students to write programs using its software. >> how long did you work on this? >> really two weeks and two months preparation. >> do you need to know how to program for this? >> merkel spent more than two hours visiting the various exhibitions this year. she worked as a physicist before getting into politics, so she has a genuine interest in technology. >> eurozone finance ministers say they hope to come up with a 17 billion euro bailout for cypress by the end of the month. the announcement came after the government agreed to a key demand over concerns of large- scale money laundering. the ministers want an independent review of how separate banks are implementing new laws. they also want to see more privatization of state assets. a comm

way in which we could incorporate replacement material such as flag and fly ashe to supplement the portablew a big reduction in those carbon emissions associated with production from that poured cement. >> concrete for the building has a 70% replacement value with recycled materials fly ashe and recycled materials that would otherwise go to waste. reducing our carbon footprint in half. >> the way that we often do buildings in the city are often projects in the city is we go out and we do a low bid. somebody bids on something, we have to do everything that's expected out completely. and everything after that thorable change prosecretary is very difficult. spec ed out. >> we use design bid delivery method. in this one we did a construction manager gc, which really means that we bring the contractor on board as we design and they participate in the design. it brings a lot of collaboration. >> the department of public works decided to try a more team oriented approach with this project. the best value approach. they really went to to us come on board as a team member and work with them. >> what

it's a huge screen, 5-inch screens, they make them much more like portable computers.t does a lot. it's g a great camera. my big problem is it's a plastic phone, and everyone else has a metal and glass iphone, that's tough to compete with. >> plastic phone? >> i know. i don't understand. >> what about the blackberry 10, officially available in the united states. everybody has been waiting for this new blackberry. what do you think of the phone? you brought it here with you. >> i have the blackberry z10 right here, and that is blackberry's latest attempt to get back in everybody's good graces. it's a crossover device. >> it looks like the iphone. >> it's thin, it's brick-like, a big screen, a nice camera. so it does pretty much everything these other phones do, but it's only just as good as them. it's not really better. it's tough to bring people back to blackberry without a product that is really better. >> the company is no longer called research in motion. it's calling themselves blackberry. what will this revamp of blackberry's branding and the z10 phone mean for th

we have actually fleet of portable cell sites, these are cells that are on trucks or in trailers that are deployed, that actually are available within a market so we can deploy them in the cases of emergency so if the cet site actually goes out of service, we can deploy a september temporary cell site. we have these systems available for our emergency departments so if they need coverage in certain areas that are not covered very well, they can actually use those systems as well. so i did talk about the failure overcasts. i think this is the key portion of our industry, for our company. we want to make sure that we can take into account when these big situations occur and major interruptions happen in particular areas. >> thank you. okay, our last question, have you established standards for resilience in cooperation with other lifeline providers and how systems should perform in an earthquake? >> i'll go ahead and talk about pg&e. i would say first off we've designed our own standards for what should happen in an earthquake

(music playing) there's almost a giddy euphoria of being able to use lights and the dramatic use of lights in late 40s, early 50s films. (music playing) (man) turn on the light again, cora, please. all right. waste your money. (edward dmytryk) we wanted to spend as little time with the mechanics, lighting a set, that kind of thing, setups, to give ourselves more time with the actors, to get the best possible scenes out of them. with film noir what you did is you want it like that, throw a shadow on it, get a gobolt, you know. and that's all, the shadow did it.
