Guantanamo abuse, cybercrime, State of Affairs, gray water and more

Take Two will discuss Guantanamo abuse including force feeding. We will also look at a new report showing California as the top target in the United States for cybercrime. Also, recycling gray water is one way Californians may be able to deal with drought. And it's Thursday, so we'll have State of Affairs, a look at government in California.
