started the cleanup at the selection of coleman. cal trans officials say it's routine and people leaving near the camp were told to clear out by the end of the day. homeless advocates say they don't have any other place to go. >> it's a travesty that they have nowhere to go. it breaks my heart. because you want to just take them in and provide for them and solve all of their problems. but it's just impossible. >> homeless advocates say there's a shelter shortage and interim housing crisis in the area which is further hurting the homeless community. people who live nearby are welcome to participate in the cleanup calling the camp dangerous and a major community concern. the fire at a home his camp is being blamed for stopping bart trains and spreading heavy black smoke. across the

four northern california faults are overdue for major seismic events. that means earthquake. perhaps one that's larger than the 1989 loma prieta quake which coincidentally the 25th anniversary of that quake is this friday. in a new study, geologists say they're seeing no creep on four key fault lines. you see the map here. no creep means no pressure is being released. and that means those faults have an increased risk of producing earthquakes with a magnitude of 6.8 or higher. the areas with the greatest concern really in the east bay. the green valley, rogers creek, hayward, and calaveras faults. the world's largest software conference is under way in san francisco. more than 150,000 people expected to attend. dream force over the next four days. it's organized by sales force, a bay

in. plenty of sunshine across the south bay and 79 degrees. and at we head throughout tomorrow's forecast it is not going to be hot. no way, no how. what you're going to find is temperatures are going to stay cool in san francisco with 65 degrees. areas of drizzle at the coast in the morning. a few breaks of sun through the day. by the evening hours, a few areas of scattered showers. as you'll see in our three-day forecast, we will see clouds build as well for the south bay. temperatures in the 70s for the peninsula. mainly 60s. the best chance overall for rain across the entire bay area is not going to come until friday or saturday. so if you are headed out to the dream force conference or anywhere throughout the bay area, we've got some clouds coming in and mainly some cooler weather, at least throughout the next three days or so. so sales force is putting on the dream force conference right now. if you don't have a registration ticket, you don't have a pass. here's a little secret, raj and jess. you can get close enough to the gates and you can hear all the awesome music that's happening inside. who knows, maybe somehow you'll get in. >> so that's the cheapie way to get the information. i remember that from high school. >> jeff ranieri and bruno mars doing sales force. mark matthews and the giants getting ready for a wild week of baseball. giants flew back to san francisco today after last night's gut-wrenching loss in st. louis. we're used to this torture. >> torture is the way we like it. mark matthews at at&t park. this is the hottest ticket in town. boy, they are ready there at the ballpark. >> reporter: they are. the giants are back in town. they were practicing today. they're all tied up and there is excitement in the air. the park looks great. two rows of red and white bunting encircle the stadium walls, the main gate, ready to welcome the faithful. boxes of postseason gear unpacked at the dugout store. everyone here a giants fan except for mike ahn of pasadena. >> i would have loved to have seen the giants/dodgers championship. >> but the dodgers lost. >> yeah. >> lost. >> yeah, i understand. >> they're home now. >> reporter: now that that's cleared up the grounds crew is preparing the infield. the cardinals practiced today then the giants, pretty much like always, except an edge that isn't here in the regular season. >> there's always a sizzle in the air. you see the bunting around the ballpark. everybody says there's an air of exit that you can't have during the regular season because the stakes are so high. >> reporter: the stakes are high. the fans at the ballpark can second-guess the manager but rarely get a chance to ask him directly, until today. we asked folks at the dugout store what they would like to ask manager bruce bochy. most asked about last night's choice of relief pitchers, specifically hunter strickland, who can throw a 99-mile-an-hour fastball. it has a tendency to leave the park at 120 miles an hour going the other way. >> great pitcher, but giving up four, you know? >> strickland's fast but if it's flat, you've got to change your pitches. >> i know he feels awful about giving up another home run. but we may have to tweak things. but, you know. this kid's still going to be part of our sixth, seventh inning. >> reporter: strickland is still in it. bochy says that lincecum is ready to go. and i asked tim hudson who's going to pitch tomorrow how he feels about the ballpark. he said, you know, when the fans get going and the place is really rocking, it's sort of a pick me up. like a cup of coffee. think about that the next time you're sipping your espresso. reporting from at&t park, mark matthews, nbc bay area news. another drink, a fierce battle bubbling over the ballot box over what you drink. political analyst talking soda tax next. netflix wants to give subscribers the clearest picture available. but of course it's going to cost you. we'll tell you how much. the usual debate scene takes a back seat. get ready for a bus tour. mayoral candidates dave tore kezzy and sam ricardo are rolling through the streets talking about education, immigration, and public safety. the ride ends later tonight with a community forum at a san jose church. two bay area cities have a ballot proposal that would tax sugary carbonated soft drinks. can they pass? our political analyst weighs in. larry, we've been down the sugary road before. >> look, there's been nothing public polling here, no public polling on either measure. history would suggest these are uphill battles. san francisco's proposition e would add a 2 cent per ounce price to the soda, carbonated soft drinks. because the proposal would earmark the funds for a particular use, children's public nutrition programs, it requires a two-thirds vote. berkeley's measure d proposes a 1 cent per ounce tax on sugar-contained carbonated beverages. the funds would go into the city's general fund because revenues there aren't earmarked for any specific use. that proposal, of course, then requires a simple majority. >> the word tax alone is hard to swalt low for most people. >> yeah, to begin with, a tax increase is always an uphill battle. that's the first problem. second, a couple of proposed tax increases on people for something they like? and that adds to the anxiety. third, the no side, if you will, is organized by the american beverage association. they've created a coalition that includes unions, the san francisco building trades council, gay groups. wow, that's quite a combination. projecting really a widespread opposition. and fourth, look, the facts here, the american beverage association has already spent, get this jessica, $7.7 million in san francisco alone in a campaign certain to top $10 million by november. in becomely by the way, the american beverage association spent already $1.7 million. proponents haven't come close to matching these numbers in either city. >> clearly with all this money being spent there isn't a good history for taxing soda. >> no. the last few years the american beverage association has led the way to defeat about 30 issues. proposals like these in several states and cities. but they dropped the ball recently in mexico on a new tax there. revenue dropped dramatically. the american beverage association doesn't want similar losses here. you know, that said, i've got to tell you, the berkeley proposal's got a shot. it's got a shot with only a 1 cent tax and a reform-minded voting stat. with those two we just might see history made. >> berkeley does go its own way. thank you very much. i'm robert honda live in san jose. coming up, police officers may soon be forced to work mandatory overtime. we'll show you the surprising way the department is looking for ideas for its plan. also, a nurse on the front lines in the fight against ebola has gone from caregiver to patient. we have new details on how she contracted the deadly virus. right now at 6:30, a new proposal that is not sitting well with san jose's rank and file. only on nbc tonight, the police department now considering what many think is a drastic strategy to deal with its staffing shortage. mandatory overtime. nbc bay area's robert honda joins us from police headquarters. a lot of officers upset about this and they're blaming police academy turnout. >> reporter: jessica, as you know, mandatory overtime is all about numbers. the number of officers needed to cover patrols, the number of academy cadets needed to help. right now all those numbers are bad. the san jose police department has lost hundreds of officers to resignation or retirement in the past few years. and it has led to various shifts in scheduling and staff rotations. now nbc bay area has learned the top brass is asking all department members for input on a proposed plan for mandatory overtime. cops we talked to, including poa officers, are upset. >> every member of the department will have to work on their days off and have to come in and do a ten-hour shift, several ten-hour shifts a month. i haven't seen the final plan so i don't know how many hours yet. >> you may work days, now you're working midnight shifts because you don't have a choice. it's very difficult to plan events and time with your family and your kids. >> reporter: the survey says the preliminary plan is a supplement voluntary so-called pay car shifts on patrols and a rotating shift called flex car all with mandatory overtime for all full-duty officers. the police union says the upcoming academy class of 22 new cadets and one holdover is the smallest class ever and a big factor in the new plan. >> our officers are looking at this and going, you guys can't make this work, you're just going to pressure us a little bit more. and each time you do that, you break someone's last straw and that's another officer who puts in an application and goes somewhere else. >> reporter: the police department acknowledges it is lag for ways to develop some plan for mandatory overtime because of an expected surge in retirements. officials say right now they're still collecting input and will have more to say when the survey is completed october 20th. let talk a little bit about mandatory overtime in san jose. it's not just police. back in august we reported how san jose emergency dispatchers are already working mandatory overtime in the face of low staffing levels there. each worker asked to log 36 hours of overtime a month. dispatchers said even with everyone working extra hours, response times were being impacted. a distinctly shaggy suspect is the target of a warning and a search by campbell police. detectives say the older man with long gray hair and a beard exposed himself to a woman outside of the safe way store on hamilton avenue last month. the woman described him as possibly being homeless and wearing a green army jacket. she told campbell police the man followed her as she walked and then ran off when she entered that safe way on hamilton. a little girl in michigan may be the latest victim of the enterovirus d-68. 21-month-old madeline reid died on friday. doctors say she'd been battling the enterovirus d-68 when her heart failed. lab tests will have to confirm if the virus was directly responsible for madeline's death and five others. >> those investigations are still under way. but i must say, at the top of the list of possibilities is that this enterovirus may have produced those illnesses. >> the numbers are sobering. take a look at this map. nearly 700 people have been infected in 46 different states. most of the victims are kids. there is good news. doctors believe the number of cases is reducing. house leaders are looking at the protocol for working with ebola patients after a nurse in dallas tested positive for that deadly virus. that nurse had been caring for thomas eric duncan, the liberian man who died from the disease last week. chris pa loan is live with more of the developing story and these protocols getting a lot of attention now.ollone is live wi of the developing story and these protocols getting a lot of attention now. >> reporter: state and federal officials are per plexed with how this health care worker came down with ebola. they're looking at protective gear doctors and nurses wear, trying to figure whether anything safer can be done. monday a cleanup crew that specializes in hazardous materials worked to decontaminate a dallas apartment. a close family friend confirmed to nbc nauz the woman is nina pham, a did nurse at texas presbyterian hospital, diagnosed with ebola over the weekend. >> i feel awful. that a health care worker became infected in the care of an ebola patient. she was there trying to help the first patient survive. and now she has become infected. >> reporter: the centers for disease control says a breach of protocol led to the first person to person ebola transmission in the united states. and it's leading top health officials to examine every aspect of working with ebola patients. >> we have to rethink the way we address ebola infection control. because even a single infection is unacceptable. >> our prayers and our thoughts go towards the nurse and her family. >> reporter: missionary nancy writebol survived an ebola infection she contracted while working in liberia. she says wearing protective garb is important when working with ebola patients but how a nurse or doctor takes off that garb is just as important. >> it's possible that when you come out of a unit that as you take off your gloves, you might even touch your face. >> reporter: writebol urges americans to have compassion for ebola victims. >> i think that, you know, all of us need to have a respectful fear of ebola. it's serious. it is serious. but a panic? because we have these cases? i don't think it's right or good. >> reporter: despite several airport ebola scares over the past week, no other cases of the deadly disease have been confirmed. not very long ago we learned that that victim, nina pham, received a blood transfusion from dr. kent brantly, ebola survivor. he also donated blood to that 43 lance nbc cameraman, ashoka mukpo. we've been told mukpo's health has taken a turn for the much better. he's back tweeting today. live in dallas, chris pollone, nbc bay area news. in other head lines, gay rights groups tonight are hailing what they call a seismic shift by the catholic church. halfway through this vatican meeting on

you're surprised when the price is low. >> reporter: analysts are now predicting that we may see prices below $3 around christmas time. prices of course we have not seen in quite some time. and to be very honest with you, prices that we will likely not see here in the bay area since we are typically higher than the national average when it comes to gas costs. the drivers we talked to say they are

storm throughout the winter, and barring any unforeseen geopolitical situation, we should see the gas prices continue to descend. >> reporter: according to some analysts, prices could plummet another 30% by christmas. >> yeah, that's nice. nice christmas present for everyone. >> reporter: according to aaa there are a few reasons for the drop, including a stable supply of u.s. crude oil, fewer

cooling temperatures. down into the 60s and the 70s. best chance of showers would be in san francisco and also the north bay. you can see on the future cast as we head throughout 11:00 p.m. on tuesday, we'll see a zone of scattered showers move down. then as we head throughout wednesday's forecast, we'll also see a slight chance of showers into the morning hours. it's not a major storm but

night? if you didn't, forget about it. the giants are back in san francisco tonight getting ready for three straight games at at&t park. we'll check in with the players next. hey john check it out. whoa! yeah i was testing to see if we really can turn any device in your house into a tv and the tablet worked just fine but i wanted to see if the phone will work as well. so i shrunk sharon. every

up at home. two ways to look at the nlcs from a giants perspective. as the series moves to at&t park tomorrow. the g-men left the gateway city with a split which is the goal, or the giants let game two slip away and should have a commanding 2-0 advantage. regardless of how you see it, the orange and black now have home field advantage and could realistically wrap up this series without it even going back to st. louis. ahmed fareed has more as the g-men turn to tim hudson in game three. >> when the giants signed tim hudson in the offseason he brought a lot of leadership, veteran experience. but he did not necessarily bring a lot of postseason experience. and as far as the lcs, in either american or national league, game three will be his first time in the lcs. >> you know, i just try to talk to some of the young guys about didn't take these opportunities for granted. next thing you know, you'll be 16 years in the league and have never gotten past the first round. you know, so it's -- it's exciting for me to finally be here. i know a lot of these guys in this locker room have tasted that champagne and have had that success. you know, it's just something i'm still looking for. i'm really heeager for the seri to get going and to pitch tomorrow and hopefully get on to that next step, which is that goal of winning the world series. >> as far as the offense goes, it apearce to be a struggle for the giants in the postseason so far. of their last ten runs, two of have scored on sac flies, two on groundouts, two on wild pitches, one on a walk, three on hits. >> i think there's probably always room for improvement for every team. but the way we're playing right now, we're putting a lot of pressure on the other team. when you do that, you create your own chances to score runs. that's what we've been able to do. >> we've proven that even with injuries, guys were able to step in and fill in and obviously -- maybe not to the full potential what was we lost but do what's needed to help the team get the wins and the same thing, if something was to happen to anybody on our team right now, i would feel very confident with any of our guys coming off the bench fill in and doing the job. >> ahmed fareed, nbc bay area news. despite what appeared to be a series-ending injury last night, cards catcher yad yes, sir molina made the red birds flight to san francisco and could

always a sizzle in the air. you see the bunting around the ballpark. everybody says there's an air of exit that you can't have during the regular season because the stakes are so high. >> reporter: the stakes are high. the fans at the ballpark can second-guess the manager but rarely get a chance to ask him directly, until today. we asked folks at the dugout store what they would like to ask manager bruce bochy. most asked about last night's choice of relief pitchers, specifically hunter strickland, who can throw a 99-mile-an-hour fastball. it has a tendency to leave the park at 120 miles an hour going the other way. >> great pitcher, but giving up four, you know? >> strickland's fast but if it's flat, you've got to change your pitches. >> i know he feels awful about giving up another

what you drink. political analyst talking soda tax next. netflix wants to give subscribers the clearest picture available. but of course it's going to cost you. we'll tell you how much. the usual debate scene takes a back seat. get ready for a bus tour. mayoral candidates dave tore kezzy and sam ricardo are rolling through the streets talking about education, immigration, and public safety. the ride ends later tonight with a community forum at a san jose church. two bay area cities have a ballot proposal that would tax sugary carbonated soft drinks. can they pass? our political analyst weighs in. larry, we've been down the sugary road before. >> look, there's been nothing public polling here, no public polling on either measure. history would suggest these are uphill battles. san francisco's proposition e would add a 2 cent per ounce price to the soda, carbonated soft drinks. because the proposal would earmark the funds for a particular use, children's public nutrition programs, it requires a two-thirds vote. berkeley's measure d proposes a 1 cent per ounce tax on sugar-contained carbonated beverages. the funds would go into the city's general fund because revenues there aren't earmarked for any specific use. that proposal, of course, then requires a simple majority. >> the word tax alone is hard to swalt low for most people. >> yeah, to begin with, a tax increase is always an uphill battle. that's the first problem. second, a couple of proposed tax increases on people for something they like? and that adds to the anxiety. third, the no side, if you will, is organized by the american beverage association. they've created a coalition that includes unions, the san francisco building trades council, gay groups. wow, that's quite a combination. projecting really a widespread opposition. and fourth, look, the facts here, the american beverage association has already spent, get this jessica, $7.7 million in san francisco alone in a campaign certain to top $10 million by november. in becomely by the way, the american beverage association spent already $1.7 million. proponents haven't come close to matching these numbers in either city. >> clearly with all this money being spent there isn't a good history for taxing soda. >> no. the last few years the american beverage association has led the way to defeat about 30 issues. proposals like these in several states and cities. but they dropped the ball recently in mexico on a new tax there. revenue dropped dramatically. the american beverage association doesn't want similar losses here. you know, that said, i've got to tell you, the berkeley proposal's got a shot. it's got a shot with only a 1 cent tax and a reform-minded voting stat. with those two we just might see history made. >> berkeley does go its own way. thank you very much. i'm robert honda live in san jose. coming up, police officers may soon be forced to work mandatory overtime. we'll show you the surprising way the department is looking for ideas for its plan. also, a nurse on the front lines in the fight against ebola has gone from caregiver to patient. we have new details on how she contracted the

to deal with its staffing shortage. mandatory overtime. nbc bay area's robert honda joins us from police headquarters. a lot of officers upset about this and they're blaming police academy turnout. >> reporter: jessica, as you know, mandatory overtime is all about numbers. the number of officers needed to cover patrols, the number of academy cadets needed to help. right now all those numbers are bad. the san jose police department has lost hundreds of officers to resignation or retirement in the past few years. and it has led to various shifts in scheduling and staff rotations. now nbc bay area has learned the top brass is asking all department members for input on a proposed plan for mandatory overtime. cops we talked to, including poa officers, are upset. >> every member of the department will have to work on their days off and have to come in and do a ten-hour shift, several ten-hour shifts a month. i haven't seen the final plan so i don't know how many hours yet. >> you may work days, now you're working midnight shifts because you don't have a choice. it's very difficult to plan events and time with your family and your kids. >> reporter: the survey says the preliminary plan is a supplement voluntary so-called pay car shifts on patrols and a rotating shift called flex car all with mandatory overtime for all full-duty officers. the police union says the upcoming academy class of 22 new cadets and one holdover is the smallest class ever and a big factor in the new plan. >> our officers are looking at this and going, you guys can't make this work, you're just going to pressure us a little bit more. and each time you do that, you break someone's last straw and that's another officer who puts in an application and goes somewhere else. >> reporter: the police department acknowledges it is lag for ways to develop some plan for mandatory overtime because of an expected surge in retirements. officials say right now they're still collecting input and will have more to say when the survey is completed october 20th. let talk a little bit about mandatory overtime in san jose. it's not just police. back in august we reported how san jose emergency dispatchers are already working mandatory overtime in the face of low staffing levels there. each worker asked to log 36 hours of overtime a month. dispatchers said even with

madeline reid died on friday. doctors say she'd been battling the enterovirus d-68 when her heart failed. lab tests will have to confirm if the virus was directly responsible for madeline's death and five others. >> those investigations are still under way. but i must say, at the top of the list of possibilities is that this enterovirus may have produced those illnesses. >> the numbers are sobering. take a look at this map. nearly 700 people have been infected in 46 different states. most of the victims are kids. there is good news. doctors believe the number of cases is reducing. house leaders are looking at the protocol for working with ebola patients after a nurse in dallas tested positive for that deadly virus. that nurse had been caring for thomas eric duncan, the liberian man who died from the disease last week. chris pa loan is live with more of the developing story and these protocols getting a lot of attention now.ollone is live wi of the developing story and these

chance to wrap this thing up at home. two ways to look at the nlcs from a giants perspective. as the series moves to at&t park tomorrow. the g-men left the gateway city with a split which is the goal, or the giants let game two slip away and should have a commanding 2-0 advantage. regardless of how you see it, the orange and black now have home field advantage and could realistically wrap up this series without it even going back to st. louis. ahmed fareed has more as the g-men turn to tim hudson in game three. >> when the giants signed tim hudson in the offseason he brought a lot of leadership, veteran experience. but he did not necessarily bring a lot of postseason experience. and as far as the lcs, in either american or national league, game three will be his first time in the lcs. >> you know, i just try to talk to some of the young guys about didn't take these opportunities for granted. next thing you know, you'll be 16 years in the league and have never gotten past the

something i'm still looking for. i'm really heeager for the seri to get going and to pitch tomorrow and hopefully get on to that next step, which is that goal of winning the world series. >> as far as the offense goes, it apearce to be a struggle for the giants in the postseason so far. of their last ten runs, two of have scored on sac flies, two on groundouts, two on wild pitches, one on a walk, three on hits. >> i think there's probably always room for improvement for every team. but the way we're playing right now, we're putting a lot of pressure on the other team. when you do that, you create your own chances to score runs. that's what we've been able to do. >> we've proven that even with injuries, guys were able to step in and fill in and obviously -- maybe not to the full potential what was we lost but do what's needed to help the team get the wins and the same thing, if something was to happen to anybody on our team right now, i would feel very confident with any of our guys coming off the bench fill in and doing the job. >> ahmed fareed, nbc bay area news. despite what appeared to be a series-ending injury last night, cards catcher yad yes, sir molina made the
