Retracing Muir's Footsteps

When California was a young state, John Muir crossed the San Francisco Bay to Oakland and began walking to Yosemite. This morning, a Stanford graduate student is setting out by foot on the same 300 mile trek. His goal is not just to replicate Muir's journey, but to use 21st century tools to document conservation efforts in one of California's fastest-changing regions. Reporter: Sasha Khokha


Rating Doctors Online

Anthem Blue Cross is the largest for-profit health insurer in California. Over the last year, the company has rolled out a new online service to millions of members -- Zagat reviews of the doctors, dentists and other specialists in the network. For that matter, anyone can check out similar reviews on Yelp, RateMDs.com and so on. Medical practitioners are up for public review -- like it or not -- and many of them don't. Guest: Dr. Dev GnanaDev, president of the California Medical Association.
