Late friday night as it maneuvered off the Golden Gate Bridge as it was departing in frightfully bad conditions. Weather conditions on scene at that time were pretty rough. We had 29mileperhour winds and 19foot seas so even for a large ship it was pretty rough out there. Debris from yet another container has been spotted off the pacific of maurys point. Debris we shot here from our helicopter, debris that now must also be dealt with and cleaned up. But again, missing 10 other containers, whereabouts unknown. Under the waves but not too far in to the waves they could present a real potential danger. Tom vacar, ktvu fox 2 news. The containers, are those typically secured to the ships deck or each other . The lower three are connected to the deck. The lowest one most connected. Then as they go up theyre connected by things called pineapples. These are very rigid devices but in really extreme weather conditions, if the boat tips too much. If the winds are too high and all of that, it is a potential that they can fall off. Doesnt happen very often. More often these containers fall off while being loaded and unloaded at the port but having said that, there are examples of containers washing off ships throughout the world in really bad storms such as hurricanes and this is apparently what happened here. A full investigation by the federal Maritime Administration will ultimately find the cause of the accident. Tom, just to be clear, this particular company, theyre responsible for the cleanup and the cost of it . Yeah, matsen is responsible for the containers, for the cost of the cleanup, for the cost of any environmental damage that its done. And if the other containers can be located and are retrievable, theyre responsible for that. Dropping 12 containers is one thing. The aftermath is going to be way, way, way more expensive than even the containers let alone what might have been lost had they been full. Tom vacar live in San Francisco. Thank you.

In todays money monday segment, getting on a successful path for your financial goals can be complicated. Many experts say investing offers the best means to achieve your longterm financial goals. Theres a local company out of lafayette which aims to help people make Strategic Decisions by following Economic Indicators. With us now, cynthia parker. Thanks for being here with us. As an investor, why are those important to me . Economic events impact all markets. To me theyre the most important event you can be watching. The announcement for earnings for apple wont have the same impact announcement the employment number will have. Your mortgage is impacted by it. Your investments are impacted by it. Your loans are impacted by it. But more importantly, they can be really fun to follow. So we got these economic events. Theyre happening all the time. Lets bring in your company now. What do you do there . How does that help investors like me . Is it for someone like me who maybe has a 401k, very simple, trying to keep up with that . Yeah. All of us are responsible for our net worth. Most of us have 401ks which means we actively manage that money and we can have an advisor but wouldnt it be nice to know that your advisor is knowledgeable about the market . So even if you follow it on just the highest level, follow it. So the journals we have i think are ideal for anyone. I created the journals, i had actual to had the access to the information i needed but i created the journal because i wanted a quick and easy way. What is the journal . Its a calendar of sorts with all sorts of information outlined for us. Explain to us what the journal and you brought one with you. What do they have . So the great thing about economic events for the u. S. Is that theyre available a year in advance and so this weekly journal, or actually this is the Daily Journal that i founded when i first started the company for unusual investors. The weekly, what i think is so fantastic, i dont know if they can see the book, is you can look down, its a double page spread, the way you are traditionally used to looking at the calendar. The economic events are listed at the bottom of every page and theyre highlighted so the most important indicators you should watch are in dark blue. Light blue still merit extra attention so pay attention. So its a way to have something concrete in your hand. You can track whats happening throughout the year right in your calendar. You can make notes. Kind of old school because its paper. Its actually a book, not electronically or digitally. Yes. I think its interesting that i had all the Digital Information in the world i created the book. One of the things i did when i created the book was i worked in the elements that i used to learn about economic events on the trading floor. For example, i used to always track the key indices first thing in the morning. When an Economic Indicator was announced i tracked the indices again and see how they changed after the announcement. Were out of time but it sounds like the bottom line is for an investor, keep track of whats happening in the economic world. Mark those economic events. Yes, and use the book because after two weeks youll know more about the market than you ever have in your entire life. Thank you so much for your time. It was nice and warm this morning when i had the blankets on. It was cold. 30s. Had to be. Definitely. A lot colder than where we started yesterday morning. We had patchy frost, patchy fog.

It operates entirely on donations to keep its doors open. Claudine wong reports the impact on the children is priceless. Heels down toward the ground. Reporter it happens here, a sort of transformation. When you get to this yellow pole, lets make a circle and change direction. Reporter on these horses in these saddles, children like peyton and ileana learn new skills. I like to ride it and i like to ride my horse and i like it a lot. Reporter they learn responsibility. Shes a good listener. Reporter but its about more than that. Its freedom for a child that may be in a wheelchair that doesnt walk. Its freedom. Its being up and high and a different view of the world and power. Youre riding this huge 1,000pound animal and its powerful and youre in charge and it just changes kids worlds. Reporter and thats the point. To change their world. The session is 45 minutes so they usually groom, tack, and ride. Reporter the sunrise Equestrian Foundation started back in 2005 and here in Castro Valley every week children come for private lessons and Group Therapy and sometimes the horses go to the children. The mini horses actually go in to the hospital room up to their bed and they visit kids near the end of life. Reporter sunrise isnt the only group in the bay area to offer this type of therapy but they say they are the only ones who do it for free. We see kids with social, emotional, or physical challenges so theres kids with autism, a. D. D. , brain injuries, Cerebral Palsy, ms. Maybe kids have gone through a terrible divorce. Theyre in a custody battle. Reporter the demand is high and the waiting list is long. Because the group gives two years of free riding lessons to each child, it depends on the generosity of others. From the horses to the lessons. A lot of fundraising and community donations. A lot of volunteers. We have two parttime employees and everybody else is a volunteer. Reporter but they say they do it for one reason. Because it works. Lets take our hands and put them way up in the air. Show me way high. Can you touch the ceiling, stretching that backbone . There we go. Reporter 15 yearold peyton has Cerebral Palsy and will tell you it does. Her entire face lit up when she saw amigo. Groom him, brush him, take all the knots out. I like to brush him. Reporter and while 10yearold ileana never seemed to stop laughing when we met her, her father says that wasnt always the case. She was really quiet and reserved and laid back. And being around the horses and things like that has really opened her up. Her motor skills are a little delayed. So the interaction is bringing her more out and getting her more in tune with her balance. Shes a lot more sociable. Shes a lot more loud. Reporter and these horses are a part of her finding that voice, part of a transformation. Sometimes it brings a tear to my eye to hear how sunrise has affected them. Reporter it starts with that first ride. Just seeing it and the change that its made in her has been a big, big change for her. Shes happy. I know. Reporter a joy that only grows with time. Its an animal that loves on them and shows them unconditional love. Its wonderful. It brings a smile to my face along with hers. Reporter in Castro Valley, claudine wong, ktvu fox 2 news.

Coming up after the break, nearly 40 years after the release of star wars, the force is alive and well. Straight ahead, which u. S. Ticketbased sites are hot with those presale orders and the Stores Selling the most merchandise. The most anticipated movie of the year is about to launch. But tonight some lucky star wars fans will get to see force awakens before everyone else. Its true. All of it. There are three theaters in hollywood. They have rolled out the red carpet for tonights star wars premier. A half mile of hollywood boulevard has been closed to traffic all day long and some fans have been lined up since last week for the film. It actually opens in theaters to everyone on thursday. Today in the four by four were taking four minutes to talk about the growing excitement. Were joined by david jones. Thank you for having me. I like the tree behind you too. I did something today ive never done in my life. I fandangoed. I bought four tickets to a showing for my family of four. I know im not alone on this. Theyre estimating 50 million in preticket orders. Im curious, what sites are the hottest out there . Right now weve been monitoring a number of different sites leading up to the whole hype this week around star wars being released. I can tell you that weve been monitoring ticket sites like fandango, movietickets. Com, even imax. Com. Imax. Com seem to be providing the best experience for people going to that site, tended to be the fastest site to load. The reason we look at that is because its really important. The digital experience that people have is very different than the experience people had in 1977 when star wars was first released. You think about it today, people are using their desktop computers, theyre using their cell phones, tablets to browse for tickets, for all sorts of information around the actual movie itself. So because of that im curious, for studios, these early ticket sales help generate hype . Do they get just as excited about these preorders . Oh, absolutely. Because if you think about it, its just all generating the hype. All the news about the preorders, the fact that people have these tickets in hand, absolutely all lends itself to the hype. The simple fact of the matter is these sites are having a tremendous amount of traffic hitting them right now. Lets talk about the hype. I read an article, fans paying thousands to fly to paris to see it wednesday. People are willing to put out this money. Were looking at people with tattoos, people waiting outside. Lets talk about the merchandise, what some are calling genius Advertising Campaign thats going on here. What are you finding the most popular items . Or does it matter, they just want something that represents star wars . If you think about it, you have to have your star wars merchandise. So its going to be interesting this week but ill tell you what. Next week is going to be really when youre going to tell what the biggest hype items are all going to be because if you think about it, people are going to go out and theyre going to see the movie. They want to make sure the merchandise they buy is going to be the next r2d2. If this movie its kind of like a potential versus expectation. If this film does not meet expectations at the box office, does it necessarily mean its not successful based on what keba just asked you and thats the merchandising. Has it already won . Oh, absolutely it has. If you think about all the different product placements and were not just monitoring the ticket sites, were monitoring a lot of the companies that have product placements ongoing. Whos winning that war . Right now were seeing companies like, for example, dura cell right now is doing a good job. Just turn on the tv, you can see this weekend they just dialed it up a notch with all the ads that are promoting this movie as well. Thats true. Are you kind of surprised . I dont know if youre a star wars fan but from 1977 to here we are in 2015 that there is so much excitement about this movie that really for me my parents were excited about back in 77. I got excited about it later watching it here in the bay area. Ive got my 5yearold, thats three generations. I was eight years old in 1977. Star wars showed me something that i couldnt even begin to imagine. And the world we live in today is something again, i couldnt imagine back then. I couldnt imagine having the internet, my cell phone, my tablets. I couldnt even possibly imagine being able to order products off a device and its completely if you think about it, were undergoing this Digital Transformation that were just scratching the surface with. How do they keep these fans not only loyal for these 40 years, the last movie was out, what, 10 years ago . How do you manage to get this excitement for something we havent seen in years now . Or is that the reason, we want more . Part of it is obviously its a strong brand. And if you think about it, having a strong brand is all about the quality of the experience. The movies themselves are basically made to the highest possible standard of quality. These are big budget blockbuster movies. If you think about it, all of the merchandising, all of the stuff related to this, the sites themselves, the websites supporting this, they have to be of high quality as well because its all about that customer experience.

Lets get to the results. We have the results of who won. And the winner is alex. Somehow. How did you do that . The truth is im not exactly sure how that happened. I was surprised as anybody when i heard those results to be honest with you because we did this contest over the past six weeks.
