In the latest development in the pursuit of a new electric and gas franchise for the city of San Diego, San Diego Gas & Electric might stop collecting more than $100 million in surcharges that go into city coffers if a new deal between the utility and the city is not reached before the existing pact expires on June 1.
SDG&E said it is just following state regulations and the move “does not change our commitment” to reach a deal with the city. But the City Attorney’s Office accused SDG&E of “trying to assert leverage in the negotiations” and said it would take the utility to court if the surcharges are eliminated.

A group of nine environmental and political nonprofits wants the San Diego City Council to hold a proceeding to potentially disqualify San Diego Gas & Electric from bidding on the city’s electric and gas franchise agreements because of a legal dispute between the city and the utility over a water recycling project.
“Our request is for a full-fledged discussion as an informational item so the facts are heard,” said Sonja Robinson, program manager for the Protect Our Communities Foundation, one of the organizations that sent a letter to all nine members of the city council. “And if it is determined that SDG&E is in breach over the material terms of the franchise agreement, then it is within the city of San Diego’s municipal code to debar them.”

On the afternoon of April 12, Hillary Clinton announced her long-expected decision to run for president in 2016. Within hours, Chinese news sites shared the announcement on Weibo, China’s most popular micro-blogging platform, provoking thousands of comments from Chinese netizens. Most of the popular comments were nasty.
On a popular post about Clinton’s announcement from state-run Chinese Central Television (CCTV), the most upvoted comment called her an “old witch,” who, if elected, “would make Sino-U.S. elections even worse.” In a popular comment, one user expressed concern that Clinton would increase regional tensions by moving closer to China’s rival Japan and stirring up trouble in the South China Sea, where Beijing and Washington are already angling for influence. Another predicted that if Clinton became president, “World War III would not be far away.”
