and we will need the energy to provide the water and we find the energy somewhere and we managed those two systems separately but in the 21st century that is not going to work anymore. >> california uses huge amounts of energy to pump water around the state. and the biggest day to day energy need in your home is your water heater. which pumps water and energy into your washing machine, dishwasher, and shower. try taking that idea, and playing it in reverse. >> it turns out the largest single user of water nationwide is the water we use to cool our power plants. we had the experience of some of our energy systems being constrained, not being able to produce the energy because we don't have the water available to cool the power plants. it is going to be much smarter for us to really think about energy and water together, how saving water could save energy, and saving energy could save water. >> elizabeth cook, kpix 5. now, another thing about water and energy, the demand for both is the highest at the very same time. that is something to keep an eye on if our drought stretches into a hot summer. lady gaga about to be the spokeswoman for california's drought? the

saturday, clouds are going to stick around. the winds will pick up and then showers arriving tonight. dry weather returns sunday. and we will have a couple of days of dry weather including the

getting mixed reaction. some of those who helped hire the groud applaud the action but others are concerned. and we have more on the guard who apparently should not have been armed. >> reporter: while many neighbors call the security guard who shot this suspected burglar a hero others believe the guard overstepped his authority. >> i have a problem with them having a gun and taking it to that level because i think it could be avoided. >> many neighbors were surprised the guard was armed. their contract says no guns. >> and i don't believe anybody needs to lose their life over a glare. >> neighbors plan to meet with the security firm to talk about that. in the meantime, this man runs a different security company. his guards patrol other parts of oakland. he says all guards in the state are trained to be good witnesses, no chasing, and no following the bad guys. >> we are not supposed to chase nobody. we are supposed to call the police department. >> reporter: law enforcement officials agree. but they say they can't arrest security guards for chasing and arresting burglary suspects. they sigh it as a citizen -- they see it as a citizen's arrest. in yesterday's case, oakland police say when the guard chased the suspect, the suspect turned around and threatened the guard with a screwdriver and it is self-defense and the guard had the right to shoot the suspect in the leg. many neighbors support the security guard. >> they need to know that they need to stay away from this neighborhood. because we are tired of this stuff. >> good job by the guard. because

shocking. very disappointing. >> well, qusmed uestes had been living with his parents in san lonzo and investigators yesterday searched his home and office for evidence. flu deaths are on the rise and

evacuated. that's more than 50 families, because a mobile home is packed with explosives. andrea borga reports from reading where the clock is ticking. >> reporter: the warning signs start a full two miles away. this is not a drill. this is the reality of 60 pounds of volatile explosives and the mobile home they're inside that authorities say must be incinerated. >> we are in an immediate and

poor manies a d-4, exploded in his chaparral drive home while making model rockets. when sheriff's deputies arrived they called the bomb squad who called the fbi and realized this was not just a little explosion. it was a potentially catastrophic problem for the area. >> the chemical, the explosives, known and unknown, are unstable. >> reporter: and now the waiting game. for the inversion layer to clear. so the home can be burned down. because those explosives are too sensitive to move, even for a bomb robot. for the next several day, this is the end of the road at chaparral drive. the home in question is a full half mile behind those barricades and everyone who lives here within a 2,000-foot radius of it has been told they must evacuate. >> reporter: 60 homes within the potential blast area. the folks who live there were told to take five days worth of clothes and medication and wait. >> clothe, blanket, pillows -- clothes, blanket, pillow, jewelry i can't replace, and toys for the kids, paperwork, birth certificates. >> they are suspicious of authority and some are standing their ground, defiant in the face of danger. >> i am not leaving. i don't agree with what they're doing. >> deputies tonight, engineers and firefighters briefed evacuees while two large map, potential blast zones, lurk behind them. as the clock ticks. in reading, andrea borega, kpix 5. the man who

ohio woman's way of life. it is actually her new name. >> her name was sheila crabtree and now it is sexy crabtree. and she just made it legal. >> my husband has called me selfy quite a bit. it is more than just a word. it is my way of life. my personality. i think it just suits me just fine. because i'm kind of like a flirty type person. when you call it out like that, it does not really look sexy. it took her sexiness away. i wonder how her husband feels. after listening to evidence, the judge granted the new home. it costs $100 in fees all together. >> it should be way more expensive than that. here is mother one. a jewelry store break-in went wrong when the burglar forgot to plan out his escape. so surveillance cameras at this utah jewelry store show him becoming, you can see it, increasingly frustrated, when he gets locked in. he is slamming that door. and he tried to break through the doors with a fire extinguisher, failed, because the glass is bullet proof. it is a jewelry store and eventually gave up and decided to have a smoke before the police arrived. and relax a little bit. >> i bet it was scary for him. but yeah, busted. here is a wisconsin bus driver now out of a job. after a violent fight with a passenger. it turns out the bus driver and a teenager have had run-ins on the bus before. well, they got into a brawl. and the bus driver is annoyed with this guy and got up and started, obviously, a little bit of a beat-down. the problem is that the bus was still running. and then as you can see there, on your screen, the bus ended up running into several vehicles. and causing a lot of damage. no one was hurt, luckily. even after that went down. >> the other passengers are just shocked. >> yes. >> they don't know what to do. >> i don't blame them. the driver, you might not be surprised to find out is fired and the teen is facing charges. both of them should pay for something like that. that kind of situation. a little drama surrounding team usa and their uniforms. what athletes say is stopping them from winning the gold and their plan to fix it. >> good morning, everybody. you will never guess who the biggest fan is? i don't know if i can give you a hint for seth curry. it compensation from the top. how about that one? an nba all-star weekend. from new orleans. fastest in the world. the u.s. speedskating team is ditching the high-tech suits that had been touted as the fastest in the world. they haven't come close so far to getting a medal in the first six events and those are competitions that the team historically medals in. some have complained the suits created dag slowing them down. the team received permission to go back to the old suits. baseball season is just around the corner. a's giants pitchers and catchers returned yesterday. and this season there is a security upgrade at at&t park. and everyone will be screened with metal detectors going on and.is part of the mlb rule that all teams use the detectors by the beginning of the 2015 season. good morning, everyone. we will start off with the nba. after all, it is all-star weekend. warriors guard seth curry will star in tomorrow's all-star game. maybe because as former warriors says tim hardaway says, he has heels. >> and yesterday, curry, got the biggest praise of all. >> he is the best shooter i have ever seen. i believe that. in terms of being able to, you know, off the dribble, get his shot off, from anywhere, that fast, that is the best i have ever seen. he can shoot, his daddy could shoot, but he could only stand in one spot and shoot, right? >> how about that hey? from the prez. watch this slide to the bucket. that is the challenge last night. that is beautiful. barnes' team would be victorious. there he is at the corner. winning 142-136. yes, the youngster. six ranked stanford hosting number 15 arizona state. boy, they took the sun devils and just pulled them apart. and stanford wins 61-35. it was the first game for stanford since being upset last week by washington. that will do it. more all-star festivities coming up later on. see ya later. >> mvp, andre drummond. >> espn not top 10. >> that is the nba rising star all-star game. the trophy was broken. and it ended up in being in multiple pieces. the winner, andre drummond of the detroit pistons held it together with his hands and he didn't seem to mind. personally, that works for me. coming up an outer space mystery solved. why scientists have stopped scratching their heads about a rock on mars that appeared out of nowhere. >> we'll be right back. ,,,,,,,, last
