Morning News Round-Up -- 11.18.09: Ayres Watch is Back...

Williams Ayres, William Ayres, William Ayres... it is back in the news. The new defense attorney wants the names of the jurors from the mistrial... apparently this isn't that unusual, but probably won't be much fun for those old jurors... Remember, you can get all the latest and greatest at William Ayres Watchdog...

Speaking of (alleged) local crimes...

The shootee in the Skyline College shooting (and presumably the shooter) will face gun charges...

And this... the Menlo Park Police are looking at a "person of interest" in the fatal hit-and-run of a first grader last week.

And to fight these crimes...

Daly City is getting a new Police Chief from San Jose. The going is tough in San Jose -- and the tough are heading north (apparently)... Watch Dog is hoping that the Daly City City Council doesn't cut the guys salary if they start to disagree with his actions...

Nothing sets people off (apparently) than thinking about selling land that belongs to a school district. That's the predicament that the San Mateo Union High School District finds itself as it looks at plans to sell Peninsula High School's campus...

If you were expecting a change in the Half Moon Bay horses-on-beach policy, you got all you needed to know in The Review's headline: 'Status quo' for horse riders...

Here is a non-shocker... the debate about the big Menlo Park project dubbed "the Bohannon Project" is "touchy"...

Speaking of touchy... When it comes to Atherton, we know from history that small-town politics can get ugly. Tonight, the Atherton Council will talk about repealing the "road impact fee" that developers pay when they are doing construction. Expect fire works, nasty words, and perhaps a hit to Atherton's budget...

The Ayres story is gaining traction in Boston, Massachusetts, where Boston police are looking for anyone who might have been molested there in the 1960s to come forward.
