Bay City News Service

Major delays are expected for BART riders in downtown Oakland and
those heading to San Francisco Thursday morning due to a disabled maintenance
vehicle on the tracks, according to a BART official.

The disruption between the MacArthur and 19th Street stations is
likely to cause delays for commuters traveling from Richmond and Concord
toward Fremont, SFO and San Francisco, a BART official said.

The trails I saw at you tube, while bigger than vapor trails, were still very puny compared to the…Read More banner cloud formations I saw this, banners stretching straight from East to West (or vice versa) from one horizon to the other. May guess is that they were over 500 feet wide, and I'm still inclined to think the straight-line winds that made the derecho in the East pushed backwards a straight banner of visible water vapor (ie, clouds). Compare the physics to the x-rays that are pushed backwards when matter is sucked into the spiral of a black hole, a new discovery this week.

Tonights meeting at 7 p.m. City Hall Agenda Item The following is copy/paste from Agenda available…Read More on City's Website. Attachment: STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The library café opened in September 2012 with a Rental Commencement Date of October 1, 2013. Since the very beginning of operations, the tenant has struggled to meet the lease obligations and most recently requested waived rent through September 2013. Staff has negotiated an amendment to the lease that addresses City concerns and supports the tenant’s viability for success, and recommends the new terms to the Council for approval. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve and authorize the Mayor to execute an amendment to the lease agreement with Café Pica Deli, Inc. to adjust the monthly rent from $1,250 to $400 per month for the first twenty-four (24) months of the Initial Term; modify the “Percentage of Sales” revenue sharing provision in the agreement, as well as add flexibility to the hours of operation.
