New this morning, president obama says the republican Budget Proposal would shrink opportunity and make it cuffer for hardworking americans to get ahead. In his weekly dress the president says house budget chairman proposal would shrink opportunity and make it tougher for hardworking americans to get ahead. In his weekly address, the president says house budget chairman paul ryans budget gives massive tax cuts to the rich while cutting programs like education and research that spur job growth. The republican budget begins by handing out massive tax cuts to households making more than 1 million a year. Then, to keep from blowing a hole in the deficit, they will have to raise taxes on middle class families with kids. Next, their budget forces deep cuts to investments that help our economy create jobs. The president says republicans would also take away insurance from 7 Million People who enrolled through his healthcare law and would gut financial protections. We have developing news right now this morning chinas News Agency Reports a chinese ship searching for malaysian flight has detected a post signal. They are facing a new time crunch to find it. Batteries in the black box that is are supposed to give up out an audible ping are only supposed to last for 30 days. That means the pings could fall silent by tomorrow. Hightech equipment aboard ships searching the deep waters are being dragged through the indian ocean hoping to catch some of the pinging. The plane disappeared four weeks ago after leaving beijing. When the batteries run down it will be more difficult to find the plane. However, as abc7 News Reporter Wayne Freedman found out in almeda, it wont be impossible. Its a contraption that appears utterly unsuited except for toppling over but its a remotely operated vehicle that could help and find malaysian flight 370 behind the surface of the indian ocean. We can bring up piece that is are larger. Liz runs the research in alameda. Shes intimately familiar with the difficulties of searching in deep water with a black box that is soon to go silent. It doesnt get easier with time. It took two years to achieve success from air flight 447 from 1600 feet below the atlantic. Now you have to consider the ocean currents, the depth of the area that its in. It is, you know, the proverbial needle in the haystack. A dark, wet one in extreme conditions. 16,000 pounds were square inch bearing down on everything. The challenge will be tougher than an already monthlong search that has essentially come up with nothing but garbage on the surface of the ocean. Now vehicles like this will use multibeam bottom painting sonar and will likely chase more false leads. Almost every dive and project we work on, we find evidence of human garbage behind. What we are looking at is an expression of art and science and technology combined. More than 90 of this device was handmade and fabricated right here. Talk about made in america. Engineers like joseph conceive of a part and Third Generation machinist robin best fab fabricates it. He wants perfection. He wants things to be built the way they are designed. They have no choice because miles beneath the surface of the ocean there can be snow more gin for error. Especially when trying to solve one of their great aviation mysteries.

As california schools revalue top adjust to new state standards, the exploratorium in San Francisco is ahead of the curve. The museum is working with a local School District on a pine earring program that combines language and science. They show us how hands on learning works. Are you guys ready to be careful observers today . Yeah. When you think of learning english, you might not think of snail but snails can be effective teachers or teacher aids. This is a school in sonoma. 85 of the students here speak spanish as their primary language at home. The range of english skills in this third grade class varies widely. But the excitement created by handson science is crossing the language barrier. I think its pretty cool. The exploratorium is working with the School District to use science as a tool for improving english. In this lesson students design their own experiments to find out about snail behavior. This one is coming out of here. The teacher has a huge role in this, but its a different role than standing up and giving all the information to the students. Its really engaging the learner in taking their own responsibility for their learning. We are trying to figure out if the snail can get out of the maze. Kids are messing around with stuff, trying to figure out whats going on with it, and once their curiosity is activated then they want to learn more. They want to learn the academic words to go along with what they are seeing. Did it go in or yeah, it closed. It closed. Okay. Many of these third graders have been getting this kind of less lessen since kindergarten. But a number of studies say most Elementary Schools offer little science and kids with less english skills get less. Thats why they are working with Sonoma Valley for six years finetuning the program so this program want be replicated around the country. This is the electromagnet kit. Each box is full of everything a Teacher Needs to make a wide variety of science lessons come alive. The money for all of this is from private foundations and the u. S. Department of education. This year the program is even expanding to preschool. Look underneath. It started out as a project for english language learners but has grown to a program that accommodates all kinds of learners and all kinds ever language because Everyone Needs support with learning an academic language.
