Growing up in california, i always thought i would never be able to get married, and i would always have to live in sin, and now we can do it. There was such a rush that city hall brought in extra staff to help out with the valentines day weddings. Some people despise them, some respect them.

He covers his face in front of cameras, and writes reviews, which are so influential, it can make or break a restaurant. Is it interesting weve gone 26 years and i can see your face, but right now were silhouetting so nobody can see it. Cat and mouse game. It is. This is a small town so to be here as long as i have, it gets difficult, but i do everything i can to at least get in the door and see them before im recognized. Reporter Michael Bowers face is relatively unknown but his name sets the table for the bay area restaurant scene. You can literally put a chief ad restaurant out of business in this city. I dont take responsibility for that. I hope i have integrity in that im fair. If i give a good review, its because they are doing a great job. If i give a bad review, its because they need to improve. Reporter do you ever feel guilty about a scathing review . You had several. I dont like doing it, but i learned early on in my career that the only thing i have is my own integrity, so if i know the person, i put on blinders and write what i think. Reporter what does he think, i tried to write the noodles, they were hard as glass in hakkastn. It seemed jardiniere stepped over the price value line. Its still excellent but i cant justify three stars. It is writing the negative reviews. I dont relish it because i realize that peoples lives are at stake, but by the same token, i have to keep in mind that im writing for the general public. A lot of people dont have unlimited amounts of money, so i would rather send them to a place that could be struggling that needs this really good and needs the business rather than someplace that doesnt and doesnt do a good job. Reporter im sitting in front of you here. Youre a slender guy, in great shape. How often do you eat out . Every night. Reporter seven days a week. Seven days a week.

Going legit, the move from the white house to help marijuana businesses stash their cash legally plus. Im scott budman outside the netflix war room. How the Silicon Valley streamer sends you season two of house of cards. Burning the midnight oil and made millions of people around the world very happy, including president obama. In a story youll only see on nbc bay area, well take you behind the scenes at netflix releases the hit show house of cards. Reporter jessica, if you think about it, when the first season of house of cards was released, it was met with skepticism. Critics said it was crazy to put an entire show online at the same time. Well, one year later, how and where we get our programming has changed. Welcome to the war room netflix style. These men and women on their laptops and ipads are responsible for streaming out the hottest show in the world right now to 44 Million People in 41 countries. Tonight is a really exciting night for us. Reporter house of cards season two, so big president obama tweeted about it. A 13 episode merger that one year ago seemed like a crazy idea. Will this work out . Are we creepy for doing that . It worked out well and what people expect nowadays. Reporter with the countdown to season two on, everyone here was checking the feed, but no one was doubting the success of the companys all you can watch model. They know exactly how their viewers want to watch their shows, and they are giving them exactly what they want. My guess is they are going to be house of cards parties. Reporter when midnight hit at netflix headquarters and the streaming started all over the world, concern gave way to a party. [ applause ] so when you think about house of cards, you can think about traditional television, shows you turn on every night at 8 00 p. M. Or think of a way the user decides to consume anyway they want. Reporter changing the game one streaming, pinging i Silicon Valley enhancing device at a time. Since house of cards debuted, they rest released several other shows, bing watching is a term and stocks have risen 270 a share. Im scott budman, nbc bay area news. Scott will be binging for the next four days. Still ahead here at 6 00 a mystery wondering who would crash and go . Im Monte Francis where giants fans will notice a big security change this spring when they walk through the gates and might headacmight going to the game like going to the airport. I dont know if they will reach that 7 million but young people are not signing up. The push bag on a runup of president obama enrollees. Finally momentum but is the 3. 5 million number told by administration too good to be true . Reality check is coming up next. While most of us are used to this, now its coming to the ballpark. Every time you fly you do this, but now its going to happen at every giants game. Big changes coming to at t park before opening day. Fans have to go through metal detectors. This is part of Major League Baseballs new rules. Monte, will it be faster or slower to get inside the giants games . Reporter raj, thats right. They think it will be faster. They are expected to be installed sometime next month in time for opening day april 8th and once fans get used to it, the process of getting to the ballpark should actually be faster than it was before. If youre a giants fan, you recognize this scene, long lines outside at t park as fans wait in line to be screened with metal detecting wants. Last season the wants were used at some but not all entrances of the park. One fan said shes glad to see the wants go. They would want you so slowly, that youre still watching 100 people go by you as you try to go in. So i think that its not a bad thing. Reporter the director of ballpark operations says will may be an initial slow down getting in as fans get used to walking through metal detectors instead of the old turnstile. I think it will be not like the airport, taking off your shoes and belt. We suspect it will be faster. Reporter the oakland as already have metal detectors because they share the coliseum with the raiders and the nfl began requiring the metal detectors in 2012. Giants fans had mixed reaction about the news, that they are coming to at t park. Its a good idea if it makes the line go faster. If it doesnt, there is a problem you have to get here earlier, look for parking or commuterlier. Definitely will be a lot better. Will make it easier, the lines get long when there is big games. Reporter and the team says its planning to buy at least 40 of the metal detectors, so all of the entrances can be covered and of course, the main reason this is being done is because of safety. The director of operations says thats the reality of the world were living in. Thank you, monte. San jose police want to know who ditched a maserati after crashing it into a home. Neighbors say the driver in the white maserati took out this fence before hitting a parked car. Police say the maserati wasnt stolen and the registered owner is not a suspect, so then who is . When investigators asked who is looking for, they said all aspects of the collision are under investigation. Neighbors were surprised the maserati was on their street. Our house actually shook. You thought there was maybe an earthquake but you could hear other nices and people could describe it as when his tires blew. The homeowners whose fence was damaged said she bought the home only six months ago. Were talking about obamacare, the president s signature law sink or swim . Some say the latest figures offer reason for optimism, others say it isnt true. Sam brock checks out the claim despite the early troubles, obamacare is back on track. Youll recall the rollout was to be modest but troubled. Fast forward a couple months, Administration Says 3. 3 Million People have signed up with a late surge capable of bumping up enrollment closer to the original estimate of 7 million by march 31st. These numbers are potentially misleading . Absolutely and here is why. If you yawned or turned your head, you might have missed a no no no press conference where Kathleen Sebelius announce add milestone, 3 Million People signed up on state and federal marketplaces since october 1, but you do probably remember this capitol hill grilling in november when the wheels were coming off the obamacare website and peoples policies were being cancelled. Sir, i think the statement is it true or is it false . This is a dishonesty. I mean, youve been misleading the American People and the president has. Lets see if the numbers add up, but lets not have another 40 something votes to reveal a law thats already helping millions of americans like amanda. Reporter okay. Forget the political pandering, roughly three Million People have signed up thus far, thats half way to the seven estimate. But are the folks at this pool newly insured . Maybe their employers dropped coverage. The answers to the questions could skew the bottom line. We cant rule out based on the numbers we see now that almost everyone on Exchange Pool was somebody who had some form of insurance before. That may or may not be the case. We dont have evidence suggesting it is the case. We just dont know yet. Reporter david at berkeley worked on implementing the Affordable Care act. He says improving policies for folks previously under insured were also part of the laws intent but acknowledges questions marks on signing up since young enroll lees can balance out the cost for caring for ageing americans. Young people are not signing up. In order for the Affordable Care act to work, they needed 40 of people between 18 and 34 to sign up. Reporter sally pipes opposes the law and highlight as flaw. According to human services, and well below administrations target. Meanwhile, 68 are over the age of 35. Pipe says age concerns plus possible missed payments or glitches like what happened to this ohio man equals faulty numbers. Sure enough, they had one or two things that were wrong, even though i have a card and the card says im signed up. When are they going to let us know how many of those three Million People actually now have an insurance plan, paid for it and have an insurance card to go to the doctor or hospital . Reporter these are reasons to question the president s claim but she says no one has enough information at this point at least to draw conclusions. Those declaring gloom and doom based on the numbers available are taking a bleak. There just isnt the evidence to suggest we have a serious problem yet. We have keyed in on three possible issues with the enrollment pool but the bottom line is until we know whether the folks that signed up accurately reflect the health of the country or doesnt, we have no idea whether president obama is back on track. President obama cant say it is and critics cant say that it is not. Im sam brock, thats today s reality check, back to you. Thank you, sam. Do you have an idea for a reality check . We want to hear from you. Drop sam a line on our website, nbcbayarea. Com. Click on reality check. A sign that Legal Marijuana could be americas next big industry. The obama industry is giving the green to banks to accept money made by dispensers. In the past Financial Institutions have shied away from working with legal pot dispense sees in fear by doing so, it would violate federal laws. They hope it will limit the concerns over the industry.
