According to Defense Secretary Panetta there is a growing possibility Israel will attack Iran to stop the country from building a nuclear bomb. Israel, widely believed to possess the Middle East's only nuclear arsenal, views Iran's uranium enrichment projects as a major threat and has not ruled out the use of military force to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Iran says its nuclear program is solely for peaceful purposes. How imminent is an attack? Tony talks with CBS News'  Robert Berger who is in Jerusalem.

In light of a potential $12 million dollar shortfall in the current 2011- 2012 Budget and a potential $20 million to $30 million shortfall next fiscal year, the Metro Council’s Budget Committee will hear an ordinance that calls for a review of all capital construction projects not yet underway previously proposed in Metro Government Capital Budget and carried in the City’s Cumulative Capital Reserve Fund. “The Budget Committee has a fiduciary responsibility to assist in prioritizing capital projects to see if they are in line within the core services of Metro,” says Councilwoman Marianne Butler (D-15), who chairs the Committee. The proposed ordinance would stay the Council’s approval of all Capital Budget projects dating as far back to 2004. “We would prefer to delay projects only when necessary,” says Councilman Kelly Downard (R-16) who is the Committee’s Vice Chair. There are exceptions to the ordinance. Projects funded with Capital Infrastructure Funds, projects in the final construction phase, projects to non-profit organizations or projects funded in part or in full by federal or state funds are exempt.. The funding will be reconsidered on a case by case basis by an amended budget ordinance as Metro resources permit. "The Mayor has painted a picture of making tough choices. These projected shortfalls show us how important priorities are if we are talking about cutting services,” says Butler. “The time is now to decide what should be built or what we can hold as we deal with this budget shortfall. We share the Mayor’s goal of cooperation as we deal with this situation.” The Budget Committee will meet on Thursday, February 2nd at 5:00pm in Council Chambers. The meeting will be carried live on METRO TV, Insight Cable Channel 25. The meeting will also be streamed live on the Metro Council’s home page.

Only yesterday it was the exotic stuff of spy shows: flip on a computer and track the enemy's speeding car. But today, anyone with $300 can compete with Jack Bauer. Online, and soon in big-box stores, you can buy a device no bigger than a cigarette pack, attach it to a car without the driver's knowledge and watch the vehicle's travels - and stops - at home on your laptop. Tens of thousands of Americans are already doing just that, with little oversight, for purposes as seemingly benign as tracking an elderly parent wi th dementia or a risky teenage driver, or as legally and ethically charged as spying on a spouse or an employee - or for outright criminal stalking. The advent of Global Positioning System tracking devices has been a boon to law enforcement, making it easier and safer, for example, for agents to link drug dealers to kingpins. Last Monday, in a decision seen as a first step toward setting boundaries for law enforcement, the Supreme Court held that under the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution, placing a GPS tracker on a vehicle is a search. Police departments around the country say they will be more likely to seek judicial approval before using the devices, if they were not already doing so. Still, sales of GPS trackers to employers and individuals, for a multitude of largely unregulated uses, are growing fast, raising new questions about privacy and a legal system that has not kept pace with technology. This easy tool for recording a person's every move is a powerful one th at, when misused, amounts to "electronic stalking," in the words of one private investigator. "That, to the victim, is just as terrifying as seeing your face in the window at night before they go to bed," said the investigator, John J. Nazarian, who heads an investigation agency based in Los Angeles. So many suspicious spouses are now doing their own spying, a private investigator in New Jersey said, that his infidelity business is declining. In the absence of legislation in most states, putting a GPS device on a spouse's car, or hiring an investigator to do so, is widely considered to be legal if the person placing it shares ownership of the car. But some privacy experts question this standard, and there is little to stop a jealous suitor, or an abusive man trying to prevent a battered woman from escaping, from doing the same.  With Tony is Private Eye ((former police chief turned private investigator  Catherine Smit-Torrez of Stiletto Spy.

Despite a five-year hiring surge, the Federal Aviation Administration is at risk of not having enough senior air traffic controllers for its busiest and mo st critical facilities, where they are needed to run operations and train less-experienced controllers, according to the agency's independent inspector general. Nearly one-third of the senior controllers at the nation's most critical facilities are eligible for retirement, according to a report by the FAA's office of inspector general. At a Dallas-Ft. Worth FAA facility, 65% of the controllers are eligible for retirement, it says. Meanwhile, trainees are quitting jobs at high rates at those same demanding, high-volume facilities, according to the report. Between fiscal year 2008 and fiscal year 2010, critical facilities lost 40% of their trainees to attrition, well above the national average of 24%, the report says. The problems now are a legacy of the 1981 air traffic controller strike. That year, President Ronald R eagan fired more than 11,000 controllers after they refused to return to work, and the FAA hired thousands of predominantly young controllers to replace them. I n recent years, those controllers have become eligible for retirement, forcing the FAA to ramp up its hiring and training programs. How can this shortage impact operations? Could this become a safety issue?  Air Traffic Consultant, Retired from FAA, Previous Air Traffic Supervisor at Air Traffic Control, Lubbock TX (where 2 of the sleeping incidents occurred) now in private consulting practice with Air Traffic Consultant Group  Paul Fargas chats with Tony today.

From pickpockets and prostitutes to dirty bombs and exploding manhole covers, authorities are bracing for whatever threat the first Super Bowl in downtown Indianapolis might bring. Some -- nuclear terrorism, for instance -- are likely to remain just hypothetical. But others, like thieves and wayward manhole covers, are all too real. Though Indianapolis has ample experience hosting large sporting events -- the Indianapolis 500 attracts more than 200,000 fans each year, and the NCAA's men's Final Four basketball tournament has been held here six times since 1980-- the city's first Super Bowl poses some unique challenges. Unlike the Final Four, which is compressed into a weekend, the Super Bowl offers crowd, travel and other logistical challenges over 10 days leading up to the Feb. 5 game. And unlike the 500, where events are largely concentrated at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway about seven miles from Lucas Oil Stadium, the NFL's showcase event will consume 44 blocks -- about a mile square -- in the heart of the city, closing off streets and forcing an anticipated 150,000 or more NFL fans to jockey with downtown workers for space much of the week. "This is clearly bigger in terms of the amount of people who will be downtown over an extended period of time," city Public Safety Director Frank Straub said. Under a security risk rating system used by the federal government, the Super Bowl ranks just below national security events involving the president and the Secret Service, said Indianapolis Chief of Homeland Security Gary Coons. The ratings are based on factors including international attention, media coverage, the number of people the event attracts and visits by celebrities and foreign dignitaries, he said. The Indianapolis 500 ranks two levels below the Super Bowl. The city has invested millions of dollars and worked with local, state and federal agencies to try to keep all those people safe. Up to 1,000 city police officers will be in t he stadium and on the street, carrying Smartphones and other electronic hand-held devices that will enable them to feed photos and video to a new state-of-the-art operations center on the city's east side or to cruisers driven by officers providing backup, Straub said. Hundreds of officers from other agencies, including the state police and the FBI, will be scanning the crowd for signs of pick pocketing, prostitution or other trouble. One concern has been a series of explosions in Indianapolis Power & Light's underground network of utility cables. A dozen underground explosions have occurred since 2005, sending manhole covers flying. consult and testify in police related subjects, particularly police shootings, around the country.  Joining Tony is  LT Joe Key who started the SWAT teams for the Baltimore PD, has nearly twenty-six years experience with the Baltimore Police Department, ascending to the rank of Lieutenant and was assigned as a detective to the intelligence unit.   He also held past state certification as an instructor in Use of Force, Officer Survival Techniques, Riot and Crowd Control, and Chemical Agents.
