Firing. This is a static firing. The rocket is bolted to the launchpad and they fire the rockets to make sure everything is working fine. We are tracking it in the newsroom. Transportation just trickling in. As more comes in, well keep you updated. Thank you, james. Intraffic is the big problem at the moment. Lets talk about the hot spots. Two hot spots. The bay bridge and highway 17. I have two Traffic Alerts to talk about. One has been going on since the 4 00 hour and that is the closure of the Treasure Island offramp from 80 east, lower deck. A mudslide popped up there at the offramp so brim crews have been on scene trying to clean it up for hours now. It is not causing a major delay but a Traffic Alert remains in place and you cannot get off there. You have to get off, turn around and head west and deal with the heavy traffic here.

Five wins and in last place in their division. The wait for the 6th superbowl will go on for another year. Todays ceo, jed york, apologized and said they fell short of their ultimate goal. I want to apologize to the fans and everybody that cares. I hear the criticism loudly, whether thats talking to fans directly or social media or from planes flying over my head.

It has been an eventful 24 hours to say the least for the 49ers and we are going to go now to joe fonzy at the press conference. He was at the game yesterd
Question i have regards accountability. You were saying before someone in the private sector has a certain job description. They are hired to do a job. They dont do the job come under fire. If youre in the government and you dont do the job you move to another division. Plus i learned in college there are games played with the budget. So youve got a certain amount of budget and youve only used 70 of that, you better figure out how to spend 30 next week. Exact way. Youre voting on a bill that will cost 200 million.
