Although it is expected to and turning out to be a pretty quiet day for trading because it is ahead of the threeday weekend. There is the dow jones. The nasdaq and s p are down as well. That follows a big week where stocks were up quite a bit. It is 31,000 square feet. Were not talking a building here. Commercial retail space. Were talking pools and water attractions. The wave aquatic park opens for this memorial day weekend. Allie rasmus is live at the park showing us what it has to offer. She is also talking to us about the city leaders, what they say about the park. They say it was needed despite the fact that people were concerned of course about the water since we have been in a drought. Reporter yes. And even with the drought officially over, it wasnt that long ago. In fact february 2015 when this project was approved, we were in the middle of the drought. So some residents in dublin had raised concerns about having a water park like this and building Something Like with all of the concerns about Water Conservation going on at the time. But the park has been built and ready to open starting tomorrow. I have with me jim who is the director of parks and services for the city of dublin. I know the city of dublin uses a lot of recycled water, purple pipes. This park specifically, what happens if two years from now were in another bad drought. Will the park have to shut down if there is calls for Water Conservation against. The facility runs like a regular pool. We this is all recycled water. It is pumped through a system. It is chlorinated and balanced. It stays it stays clean through the system. And it is continually reused. Once we put water in, with the exception of evaporation and we have pool covers and various things to slow that down. It stays fairly well full. And we dont have to keep adding continuously. It is recycled sanitized potable water. 480,000 gallons. Yes. You have two pools and a splash park. You have a water slide. Let me show you video of an indoor pool that has a roof on it to prevent some of the evaporation. Yeah. Thats so we can get year round use out of that. It is our training pool with six lanes. And really nice add to the facility as well. And the school swim teams have a pool to have swim meets and practices in. One thing i want to point out, the biggest eye catching attraction is the 48foot tall tower with the six water slides. Six water slide for a city aquatic park seems over the top. Why did you decide to have Something Like that here. It would seem that way but aquatic parks as they have run down and are hard to maintain and fund, they dont make a ton of money. The object is to bring in families to the facility. Maybe a potential regional attraction so we can keep the financially viability of the complex moving. We have video of one of the City Employees testing out the slide called the screamer. How does that work . Well, the screamer is interesting. Because ive actually been in it myself. You have gone down it. I have gone down it. It took me a little while to get into it. Im slightly claustrophobic. Do you realize what is happening. Not until it is too late. The director of parks and Community Services for the city of dublin. The aquatic park opens tomorrow at 11 00. It is called the wave in dublin. It will be opened throughout the memorial day weekend. Once school lets out next friday, i believe, right, then it will be open every day throughout the summer. Back to you guys. Allie rasmus live in dublin. Thank you, allie.

Duates. [cheering and applause] the school held its 2017 Commencement Ceremony out at at t ballpark last night. 35,000 people filled the stadium to see the class of almost 9,000 students get degrees. Many students expressed optimism, hope and apprehension about the next chapters of their lives. Fear of not finding the right job, if it is the right path. Some of the graduates in the class of 2017 tell us they are the first in their families to go to college. Others say they worked to pay for their classes. And in many cases it took more than four years for them to realize the accomplishment being celebrated at that special ceremony. And facebooks Ceo Mark Zuckerberg addressed the harvard class of 2017.

[ sniffing ] [ seagulls squawking ] about 1200 light years from earth is a star nicknamed tab estar for the lead researcher. Between 2011 and 2013, researchers using nasas telescope they noticed an unusual dimming of tab estar. Explanations include clouds and comets, fragments of a planet still forming perhaps. Yeah. But some people, including jason rice think the dimming could be evidence of a large manufactured structure built by alien life. Jason visiting associate professor at uc berkeley joining us via skype. Give us a sense. Tab estar compared to our own star, are they similar. No. Tabby star is a little bigger and hotter. Im sitting on the beach and it is sunny and then it gets dark. I look up and usually theres a cloud over the sun. Is it possible that indeed what this dimming is clouds of dust or something going by the star . Thats right. We dont have any really good explanations because weve never seen a star get dimmer quite the way this star has. People have come up with all sorts of ideas for what it could be. The space between stars does have a lot of dust and gas, clouds. And so it could be a very unusual kind of cloud we have never seen between us and tabby stars. That is one of the ideas were trying to test right now actually. How far away is this star . Whatever is happening is 120 light years ago, right . I mean how does that work. Yeah. This star is Something Like 1500 light years away. So we do see the star like it was in the past. But as far as were concerned, were seeing the light, were seeing it get dimmer right now. We would like to know what it is making it dim. What led you to the theory this could be some form of an alien life built ship . Right. So people who work on the search for ex intelligence think that structures may be built. Luke pointed out if that happens, the telescope would be able to see them when they passed in front of the stars. We should keep a lookout for that. Until this star came along, we didnt have any evidence for it. Until we figure out what it is, that is one possible but very unlikely explanation. I was reading more into this. What i found interesting is correct me if im wrong. But this particular dimming was predicted a couple years ago . Yeah. During the kepler mission, it got dim a couple times in unpredictable ways. The two deepest dimmings when it got 20 dimmer than usual were spaced almost two years apart. If you are counting two years and two more years, thats today. Some speculated this might happen right now. Have you seen some of the drawings of what the alien structure could look like . It looks like the death star. People get fanciful with the drawings. Those werent made by astronomers. Who knows. Thank you, professor rice. Let us know if you find something out. We will let you know. If anyone is heading our way. Yes. Let us know. Who knows. Space is a large area. Coming up next on mornings on 2 the 9, stretch of highway 1 near big sur is closed because of a huge landslide. The extensive work by caltrans to get it back open. Memorial day weekend one of the busiest times on the road as we know. Also one of the deadliest. We will talk to the Highway Patrol about officers are doing to try to keep us safe out there this weekend. A hundred miles . A thousand miles . How about less than a mile and a half . Crystal geyser always bottled at the mountain source. The Energy Conscious whopeople among usle . Say small actions can add up to something. Humongous. A little thing here. A little thing there.

Join Energy Upgrade california and do your thing. How fafrom its sourcelpine spring to the bottle . Travel how about less than a mile and a half . Crystal geyser is the only major us spring water bottled at the mountain source. [music] welcome back, everyone. Memorial day weekend knocking on the door. The question of the day, are you planning on traveling this memorial day . And how are you planning to get there . 22 say im going to get in the car and head off. 5 say youre going to jump into a plane. 1 say other transportation, maybe a train. 72 say im going to stay put. That is what im seeing right now. Me too. In regards to responses. Im staying in the bay area. Still having a lot of fun because the bay area is a fun place to be. Yes, it is. I agree. Patricia says i am going to san jose state for my daughters graduation. Rich will be staining the deck. I have a lot of people saying they will be gardening. Martin is taking his kids out to taylor park. I love that. If something goes rock, you can just jump in the car and go. It is shady and nice out there. Thank you for your responses. Reach out to us on twitter. Tell when you say youre doing this weekend. As people head on to the roads this weekend, chp increasing the maximum enforcement period. Lets go over to sal who is talking to them about that. Sal. All right. I have officer sean wilkinfeld here. You are a friend of the program and remind us to be safe on the roads, sean. The myth that, look, i just had a couple. Im going a short distance, i can make it home. Wrong. Absolutely wrong. The way to start the summer is not with a dui. We will have what we call a maximum enforcement period. We will have more officers out on the road than youre used to. It starts tonight at 6 00 p. M. And ends monday night at midnight. This is a bad time to go out and try to drink and drive. We will be looking for you in force. There are a lot of people because of gas prices or the improving economy going out on the road. Unfortunately that means that more people get into deadly crashes. If im driving this weekend, what can i do to increase safety other than being a safe driver. Buckle up. Over memorial day, two thirds of people involved in fatal collisions were not wearing a seat belt. The biggest thing is buckle up. And drive safely, stay off of your phone. Dont drive impaired. The biggest thing, put on the seat belt. Can i help myself out also by noticing lets say if another driver is up ahead doing Something Weird or, you know, keeping an eye and maybe calling in drivers to hope to save someone else. Absolutely. If you see someone who is impaired, call 911. We will look for the license plate, a vehicle direction, a direction of travel, which way on the freeway and where you are. We will see if we can get an officer in position to make a traffic stop. You have been an officer for a while now. What have you seen on weekends like that you wish you hadnt. All sorts of things. We posted on facebook a video of a drunk driver who fell asleep on an offramp and we stopped. It was down south. We had to put a spike strip in front of their car. It took a while to wake up the driver because he was so impaired. They shook the car just to wake him up. You cant make up what we see. The last thing is, if you are driving, can you expect to see, you know, more patrol officers . You also have, you know, people who are kind of not i would say you dont have the typical cars. You have the white cars. You call them the polar bears. Yes. Those things are cool but dont look like police cars. You could be looking for a black and white but it could be a white car. It is hard to see what a patrol car looks like in your rear view mirrors. We have mys and bmws and the all white polar bear cars. We dont want you looking for us. Drive drive safely then you dont have to worry if were behind you. Good advice to keep the red and blue lights out of your rear view mirror. I hate those lights. Im going to be a good boy. Back to you, pam and mike. Thank you. For more on some of the other stories were working on, lets send it over to dave clark. Dave.

And singer chris cornell, the lead singer for soundgarden, will be buried today in a private service in los angeles, followed by a public memorial this afternoon.

Reporter he brought his two daughters up from long beach to check out the Central Coast but had to turn around at the road closure. I have done it with this beast a couple of times. Reporter thursday afternoon, caltrans brought us up to where highway 1 now comes to a screeching halt. This is five slides in one. It really began in january. Reporter susanna cruz with caltrans says three weeks ago they permanently closed the road to travelers as a precaution. It is a good thing because saturday night, over a million tons of dirt and rock came crashing down, covering over a quarter mile of highway 1, just north of the San Luis Obispo county line in monterey county. Mother nature kind of took over and everything came down. Reporter caltrans is calling this an active landslide. There are boulders throughout the area. And every few minutes you can still see pebbles rolling down the mountain. It made a new shore with the tip. Reporter it is being called one of the biggest landslides in california history. Caltrans is exploring options for the multi Million Dollar repair. Lets say the roadway is gone. Then they would have to reconstruct the roadway. They would have to basically shore up the hillside. And allow either put a netting or something for future slide activity. Reporter cruz says this years punishing rain ended up being too much. She compared this landslide to another one in 1983, about 15 miles north of this one on highway 1. There are alternative routes. Ten miles north of here highway 1, it goes east west. When you travel, you go we could have a boulder or two. But it thats part of the fun. All right. A music and Food Festival in napa valley is fast becoming a bay area tradition.

This morning, we are joaned by lieutenant joshua patser who participated in this years road and Suzanne Moody, the wife of brad moody who died in the line of duty in 2008. Suzanne and lieutenant, thank you for coming in. Thank you for having us. It wasnt long after your husbands death that you made it back east. Six or seven months and you were there. Why did you go so soon, do you think. To honor the officers from the previous year. The following year in washington, d. C. And my daughters who were two and three at the time and i made it back there. You wanted to be there. Absolutely. You know, i just wanted to see him and his name be honored. And it was something important for me and my daughters at that age to know that yes their dad was gone and their dad was not coming back but they need to noel always be remembered. Had you heard of it before. You know, i hadnt. I had never heard of it. He in july of 2008 had mentioned wanting to go back to d. C. To see these names on a wall. And i had no idea what it was. Little did i know three months later my husbands name would be added. All of the money goes to the fund to honor the officers. But the families, what has that fund meant to you and your daughters . You know, it means so much going back there. Every year i go back and i see his name on the wall and it makes me proud that my husband name will my husbands name will never be forgotten. Our loved one is gone and they are not coming back, but they wont be forgotten. You fell off your bike at the age of 7 and never had been on a bike ever since but you rode 300 miles. I rode the van that picked up riders who got hurt or injured or whatever. And i thought, you know what, i could do this. I could ride 300 miles. And, you know, i did it. And the pain that i felt the day that my husband died was not even in comparison to the day that i rode. And riding through the wall where his name was, it just meant so much to me. Lieutenant, watching the images on television is one thing over the years. But then actually participating in it, what for you was something that you did not expect as a participant . When youre riding, you know, there comes times when it is cold or you start to hurt and your muscles ache and you think about all of those names on the wall. There are over 22,000 names on the wall. And anybody on that wall would rather be where im at. It is the least that i can do to support their honor, their name and remember that they died in the line of duty protecting and serving us. So it is the littlest that i can do to give back. It keeps motivate you year after year that the Little Things in life that you think are a big deal are really small. It is just a way to give back. The first year that i rode, i got the opportunity to talk to some survivors like Suzanne Moody and the rest of them. They tell you their story and how their loved ones, husbands, wives, daughters, sons, and how they lived. And thats what we want to honor. Law enforcement is a tight knit family just in general. But i cant imagine crossing the finish line and all coming together. Do you get a sense of even more tightness. I have chills thinking about it. It is a sight to see. It is a little overwhelming. The judicial square is full of people cheering you on, to remember the fallen. Keep their names and their memories alive. Thats why we ride. We ride to keep these officers memories alive and raise awareness about the fall glenn do you think you will ride or maybe your ideas. I entertained riding in 2019 for his tenyear. Now that i put it on national tv. We are going to hold you to it. They might want to come back and ride one year. It would be an honor to see them do that for their father. What both of you have said would motivate a lot of people to join in. It is a small thing that you can do in comparison so what they did and gave for all of us. It is inspirational.

The show tells the story of a High School Girl who takes her own life and leaves behind a series of tapes for classmates who she blames for her suicide. Now, the series has received a lot of criticism around the country that it glorifies teen suicide. The show was popular and recently renewed for a second season. The casting call for extras is next weekend at the usa world class tick museum in vallejo from 11 00 to 3 00 p. M. June 4th. The matchup that many fans wanted. The warriors and the cavaliers. Yes. Lets go. The finals start next week. The cavs beat the celtics 135 102 to win the eastern conference finals. Lebron james had 35 and surpassed Michael Jordan. That would have been something if he passed to Michael Jordan to become the nba leading scorer. This will be the Third Straight season that the warriors face the cavs for the championship. This time around the warriors have kevin durant in the line up. We can only get better from here. I think we have another level that we can get to. This whole year was a success. The cavaliers beat the warriors in seven games last season. The warriors are entering 120 in the playoffs. The calfs are 12 the cavs are 121. Im with draymond. I want to destroy the cavaliers. That would be nice. Once youre up three, might as well get that fourth win. Yeah. Want to tack a moment to recognize one of the most bizarre plays in baseball history. 24 years ago jose conseco hit a home run with his head. The ball bounces right off of his head for the homer. He hit 462 career home runs but that one is one that fans wont forget. He got the assist on that one. Doink. Thanks for watching. Welcome to our new home for the next couple of months.
