This morning more than 200,000 longterm out of work californians are finding themselves in a deeper financial hole. The Emergency Program that provides federal Unemployment Benefits after state help is exhausted has ended. All together nearly 1. 5 million jobless americans are finding themselves starting the new year without that financial assistance. And the loss of Unemployment Benefits means the need is going to be higher, especially for nonprofits. They are already struggling this time of year.

The total budget. Reporter lisa works hard for the contra costa food bank. This email will go out for a last minute push to get donations. Immediately after december ends, donations do start to decrease. At this food bank, 2 million were donated just this month, but in an average month outside of the holiday season, 600,000 comes in. Thats more than a 70 difference. The food bank is bracing for an additional search in clients. There will be more people looking for help, as well, once the Unemployment Benefits end. If they havent already found us, there will be more people looking for food assistance. Lawmakers left washington without voting on an extension. Im in a panic. I dont know what im going to do. Federal aid has run out for kathy, who has been unemployed for more than 26 weeks. Thats the new limit for Unemployment Benefits. Democrats are pushing for a threemonth extension. We dont abandon each other when times are tough. Others argue the program is too expensive, costing 25 billion a year. And that people are simply becoming too dependent on the system. When you extend benefits to 73 weeks or 99 weeks, it encourages some people to stay unemployed too long. Congress wont consider extending Unemployment Benefits at least until january 7th.

And starting january 21st do you think you really know what you are eat Consumer Reports has partnered exclusively with 7 on your side for a report on whats really in some of your groceries. Heres mike finish with the details. Looks can be deceiving when it comes to food packaging. That means you might not always be eating what you think you are eating. Consumer reports takes the lid off what is included and what is missing from supermarket products. Expecting to find blueberries in your blueberry cereal, think theres bacon in your bacon bits . Consumer reports says think again. Some processed foods have strayed so for from the farm and the field that they are frightening long list of ingredients bears little resemblance to anything you would find in your pantry. Consumer reports looked at some supermarket favorites to see what key ingredients gives each food its pizzazz. Taking international delite Gourmet Coffee creamer. The label teases you that it will blast off to a sweet and creamy landing, but prepare for a hard landing. This creamer is mostly water, sugar and palm oil. How about mccormick bacon piece necessary surely they contain bacon . In fact, bacon pieces dont contain any meat at all. They are mostly textured soy flour. Looking for a fruit fix in the morning . Dont cant on kelloggs blueberry cereal to have blueberries. Theres not one in the box. And orioles, surprised to hear theres no dairy in the creamy middle . When a product looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, you think its a duck, but not always. When we asked companies for an explanation, most the time we either got none or a vague response. So dont look for butter in mrs. Butterworths. Or expect oranges in tang. In fact, look past the pretty pictures and seek the truth in the ingredient list. Another labeling pitfall, buzzwords. Theres a reason snacks are called Potato Crisps rather than potato chips. The fda requires a chip to be a thinly sliced potato, but a crisp can be made from dried potatoes with cornstarch, sugar and soy. Im michael finney, 7 on your side.

And im proud of her. The store manager Jerome Jackson said the woman chose this allweather boot for 69. The kind gesture prompted him to help out too. I offered my employee discount for the officer to purchase the shoes. You didnt have to do that. Why did you do it . The holiday season. I did feel bad for the lady that was in front of the store.

With the invention of Tiny Computers and 3d printers, almost anybody can make anything. As news can core dan ashley explains, San Franciscos exploratorium has been at the forefront of the maker culture for years. Led by a dynamic couple whose latest project is a new twist on a relic from the past, a book. The exploratorium has always been a place for to stretch their limits. Featuring artists and scientists not afraid to take chances. Even get a little silly. Karen wilkinson and mike wanted to give visitors the same opportunity. Get creative. The feeling of tinkering and do it yourself and making. They have been partners in life and work for two decades. Early on concern at this time me how to weld and i taught her how to use the computer. It was a match made in heaven. They passion turned into the Tinkering Studio at the exploratorium. If you can just explain something the one best way everybody is going to learn it. We dont believe that. Everybody learns in a different way, and especially when they are using their hands. The next step is to encourage people to do more tinkering on their hand with a first of its kind book. Its got conductive ink printed right on the cover. You mean ink is produces electricity . Yes. Tiny, tiny little bits of metal are in there. Inside the books artists show off their tinkering projects with suggestions to get you started on your own creations. Many using inexpensive things you can find at home. But to really set the tone, the artists were challenged to hack the book itself. We love the fact its all different. This has a thermal motor that lifts up the book cover and two little l. E. D. Eyes stare out at you. This is a miniature workbench with lights that really work. She camouflaged the battery with the stool. This one by a felt artist. She created it by making bite marks and claw marks in the book itself and felted all sorts of creatures and different elements into the book to show who might be taking this thing apart. This flower came from a researcher at m. I. T. Theres a thin piece of wire in each one of those leaves and when you run from the through it it moves and bends into a new stickers. They created tiny stickers embedded with lights, motor and computer chips, this we believe may revolutionize the craft world. It looks like something karen and i shouldnt take with us through airport security. You are right about that. Inside the artist installed a simple night light. This is the light sensor that would be in the night light. Then he attached a cell phone playing video of an eye. When the dark part of the pupil moves under the sensor, the light turns on. Look at that. I dont know how we will make an app out of that, but i have to say thats not one i would have come up with. You and me both. [laughter] well, the book, called the art of tinkering, is on sale at the exploratorium right now. It costs 30. It will be available on amazon. Com in february.

San francisco has officially thrown its hat into the ring, hoping to chosen again as the venue nor the next americas cup yacht races. The mayor submitted an opening bid. He we have the details. Could it be better the Second Time Around . Thats what mayor ed lee hopes to be the case with the americas cup. This year was the first time the city hosted the worlds most prestigious sailing event. The mayor is asking the winner, larry ellison, to again select the bay. We suffered a lot from the lack of experience and confidence about what this event could do for us. Now we have that experience. We will do better on all fronts. The mayor said this time negotiations wont include controversial Land Development rights for ellison. And former San Francisco supervisor, ann, who with a number of others sued over aspects of the race, hopes any new deal wont cost taxpayers money. Theres no reason that the people of San Francisco, who need to pay for the streets and cops, should be subsidizing the hobby of larry ellison. If he pays his own way, bring it back. For this years cup the city promised to raise 22 million to help offset costs but has raised less than half. But the Economic Institute believes there was a big yu payoff overall to justify hosting the race again. Judging by our analysis, we would absolutely say yes. There was at least 364 million in Economic Activity going on along the waterfront and in different parts of the city that would not have been there otherwise. Critics call that estimate rosy. Mayor ed lee will now have to sell the people of San Francisco, and larry ellison, to bring the cup back to the bay. The 35th americas cup is expected to take place in 2017. There will be several months of negotiations on that bid. It was a beautiful race. Yes, it was. Very enjoyable. Actually win a few times. I think you will enjoy the beautiful weather again today.
