i'm ama daetz. >> i'm larry beil. it was a week ago today that we first heard the possibility of pg&e mentioning plans to file for chapter 11 bankruptcy. >> it could affect 16 million customers. but the bigger concern is for people hoping to hold pg&e accountable for devastating wildfires. dan noyes is the only reporter who was invited into a meeting yesterday with hundreds of homeowners as well as their lawyers. >> the legal team includes renowned activist erin brockovich who will appear in a rally tomorrow on the south steps of the capitol. they're calling on lawmakers to somehow prevent pg&e from declaring bankruptcy. >> the auditorium at santa rosa's flamingo hotel were packed with people who lost their homes, who lost loved ones in wildfires that may have been caused by pacific gas & electric equipment. they came to hear from their attorneys what pg&e's possible bankruptcies could do to their case. >> look at these folks in the eye and take them through the information that they're going to need. >> texas personal injury

their assets and have no other way out. >> when you look at pg&e's balance sheet, they have billions and billions and billions of dollars of assets. >> the facts are not out there yet to warrant a bankruptcy. >> state senator jerry hill tells me the legislature can't prevent pg&e from going bankrupt, but lawmakers could take a stand for wildfire victims. >> guaranteeing that those victims be made whole. and i think that's something that the legislature may look at is to make sure that that happens at the end of the day after the bankruptcy is complete. >> i spoke with the governor's office late today. they said a strike team on this issue was talking to all levels of state government to figure out a way forward. if you have a tip about pg&e, the bankruptcy, how the fire started, call my tip line at 1-8840-i team or send me through our tip page. larry, ama? >> that's got to be a lot of nervous former homeowners who have to be wondering if they're stuck, hanging in the balance here. >> they had so many questions.

david? >> well, ama, there is a lot of little known black history in the south bay, and that's what this author is trying to unveil. first, ame zion church was first established in 1864. the first african american settlers came in 1777. their numbers grew as the economy grew, but they still faced discrimination. 64 years ago, the opening of the ford assembly plant in milpitas, replacing a facility in richmond had a major impact. an influx of african americans resulted and many settled in a new community. >> it was called the sunnyvale community was established in milpitas. ben gross was the mayor, and he actually was one of the very first -- he was in that first group of african americans that came to milpitas and he then -- there is a street named gross street named after ben gross. >> the impact of the ford auto plant and the creation of the

valley's tech sector are documented in this new book by jan batiste adkins. both helped to shape the black history of san jose and santa clara county. using church records and oral histories, she also tells the story of good brothers house, created in 1955 by chuck alexander because black athletes at what was then san jose state college couldn't get housing. >> the discrimination was very evident. so it was important for us to make it, you know. we couldn't fail. that was the deal. >> alexander is a historian in his own right, taking photos of community events since his retirement. author adkins believes these stories need to be told and shared. >> many of the history books today may show one or two of the most important civil rights leaders, but they don't understand their immediate community. so young people get a chance to learn about their immediate community in addition to learning about the civil rights leaders. >> the new book by jan batiste adkins will be released next

willie brown said he will vote for her, and thinks the rest of america will embrace her too. >> she has been unusually clever at how she laid out the prospect. she first did colbert, and then she did msnbc, then she did cbs, and she followed that very quickly with a real announcement on abc. how can you command that much attention with such a limited resources? it's incredible. >> i think her chances of being president about the same as mine. i just don't see it. >> san francisco republican party leader howard epsteinays just because she was successful here doesn't mean she is meant to be president. >> she plays well in san francisco. san francisco is a very liberal city, and she's a very liberal person. but if i think you get out into the heartland, you get out of

janie and jack. it has 9500 employees nationwide. so here's the headline. stores will begin closing this week. that means tomorrow. and that means consumers need to act now to protect their interests. gymboree stores still logistic like a going concern, but their days are numbered. last week's bankruptcy filing caught customers by surprise. >> oh, no! >> we're not -- we're not happy to hear that. >> price wagner and estella shop here often. they're showing me the purchases they just made and plan to send off to relatives back in new york. >> i send coupons. >> you might want to use that sooner rather than later. >> okay. then we can go back in. >> we'll go back in. we're going to go to lunch and come back. >> it really is kind of an emergency for those with coupons or gift cards. shelly hunter is the gift card girlfriend for gift cards.com.

>> well, what it means for consumers obviously is if you're a fan of gymboree, you need to get in there and buy the merchandise you want. if you have a gift card to gymboree, however, you need to get in there urgently and use those gift cards. >> there has been a lot of misinformation about the gift cards. nothing has been decided yet. >> when a store files for chapter 11, bankruptcy courts decide whether or not gift cards can be honored. so gymboree will have to ask the court if they're allowed to accept gift cards and for how long. >> the retailer has asked the court to allow the cards to be accepted for 30 days, but that doesn't mean the court will go along with that. the cards could be worthless tomorrow, or still good six months from now. and here's another complication. at least some of the 147 affiliated janie & jack stores are expected to be sold and remain open. however, janie & jack gift cards are expected to expire along

with the gymboree cards. >> yeah, you see that we think it's 30 days, but we don't know for sure. now it is asking a lot for consumers to keep track of all of this. so i'm going to make it easy for you. use it or lose it. get down to the store right away if you have a card. now i want to hear from you, the 7 on your side hotline is open weekdays 10 to 2:00. 415-954-8151. you can also reach me through abc 7 news. >> we are going to start calling you the gift card boyfriend. you've got that couple turned around and back in the store right away. >> use the coupons. >> she is the gift card girlfriend. you could be the gift card boyfriend. >> we're giving out new names here. >> i don't know what we call spencer. >> mr. sunny. how about that? >> awesome. >> i'll take that one. it is. it with us today as a matter of fact. it is going to be sunny all week long. check out the statewide map for the next seven days. dry, dry, dry.

which is not necessarily a good thing. but it does indicate that we've got some nice sunny skies coming our way. overnight tonight, though, under clear skies, it's going to be cold here in the bay area in some spots. up in the north bay, overnight lows freezing. many inland locations will see lows in the upper 30s. upper 30s to low 40s around the bay. then tomorrow, look for sunny skies once again. high temperatures in a fairly narrow range. the low 60s will be mainly in the north bay. cloverdale, santa rosa and snap pa. we'll see 60 at san jose, morgan hill and santa cruz. and as we look ahead to the accuweather seven-day forecast, we'll see sunny skies continuing through sunday. we'll get a few extra clouds next monday. but look at the warm-up. from the midweek to the weekend, we'll see high temperatures climbing into the upper 60s to near 7 on your side inland. mid- to upper 60s around the bay shoreline and low 60s on the coast. so even in the absence of rain, which we need, we're going to celebrate some good weather. >> sounds good. thank you, spencer. >> nice weather.

that's a value judgment. nice weather. >> anyway. mindi is here for sports. i saw steve kurerr saying he hos the warriors were drinking water this weekend. four days in l.a. can be problematic. >> not only the night life, but the nice weather. they have not forgotten what happened on christmas day. absolutely. christmas day not so good for the warriors on the court as they lost horribly to lebron james and the lakers. well, the warriors and the laker, they each have changed a

now abc 7 sports with mindi bach. >> the car yours know they are a different team than the one that had that embarrassing loss to the lakers at home in december, and they know the lakers are a different team too. the lakers will be without lebron james, rajon rondo for tonight's match at staples center. the warriors are averaging 131 points a game during their current seven-game winning streak, and they've added a healthy demarcus cousins to the mix. but that doesn't mean they discard what happened at oracle that fateful day. >> you also remember that game. it's in the back of your mind the next time you see a team. and i'm sure as competitive as these guys are, that helps motive you for the rematch. >> you can plug him in anywhere. he is going to do well. demarcus is knows the ball is

going to find him. if he is patient, he's got to be ready to shoot it. >> we're not going to play the next week, expecting that lebron is going to be back in seven days. we're going play in and practice and get after it. like we're not going to have him for a while. hopefully he gets back within a couple of days. >> espn is reporting the rockets are finally trading carmelo anthony. houston will send the 34-year-old forward and cash to the chicago bulls. the team desperately needs a roster spot after signing big man kenneth faried to fill in. anthony last played for houston in november, but he remain odd tonight roster until they could find a trade partner due to the luxury tax. espn reports chicago plans to trade or waive anthony. we don't know yet where the raiders will call home for the 2019 season, but we do know at least one of their home games will be played in london, and it will be played a fgainstormetar. khalil mack and the bears will travel across the pond to take on the silver and black as part

of next season's international games in london and one in mexico city. the bears and raiders last played each other in 2015 at soldier field. the official date of this year's game still needs to be set for so many obvious reasons. "the washington post" reports the league is considering a rule change this off-season that would make pass interference penalties reviewable. the move is in response to the huge outcry over that blatantly missed pi call in the tied nfc title game. the penalty would have given the saints the ball near the goal line with less than two minutes to play. after the loss, the league admitted the referee's error be, the apology doesn't change the outcome. the rams are going to the super bowl and the saints are. >> we can be 80 years old and i see drew somewhere on some beach in san diego and it's like remember super bowl year and we can sit back and talk about it. now the thing you're going to remember from '18 is the call. that's just human nature.

>> sunny gray agreed to a three-year, $30.5 million extension with the reds, which makes his trade from the yankees official. the former a's ace had 72 hours to work out the extension with cincinnati. the deal also include a team option for 2023 at $12 million. gray really struggled in new york, posting a 6.98 era in 15 games at yankee stadium last year, and a 3.17 era in 15 games away. a great moment on sunday for earthquake fans who braved the south bay rain to meet and greet new head coach matias almeida. he was in a shelter while fans were standing in the rain during the question-and-answer session, but part way through he jumped off the stage, went into the rain and took all of the remaining questions with the fans. he had the staff do the same and then stayed and met with the fans individually. if he coaches this well, i would say the quakes are sure to be in good shape for the upcoming season. so endearing himself to the earthquake fans, which has been much needed after a very

difficult 2018. >> we got to get spencer out in the elements. >> i've been there, yes. >> it's going to be interesting to see if the nfl really follows through and changes the review on pass interference calls. this was so egregious, so obvious, you almost have to do something. >> it's almost like they changed the overtime rules. maybe they make them reviewable for the play-offs where so much is at stake. >> that's a good compromise. commissioner bach. >> if you want to pay me $44 million. >> you're roger goodell. thank you, mindi. join us tonight at 9:00 on kofy tv channel 7/13. after nearly four months, the new transbay terminal is still shut down. the closure is saving hundreds of thousands of dollars per month. that's at 9:00. then on abc 7 news at 11:00, bonus from recent rains. we'll take you to the north bay for spectacular sites. coming up tonight it's the bachelor followed by the good

doctor. stay with us for abc 7 news at 11:00. >> and then at 11:35, jimmy kimmel live. he is calling tonight's show intermission accomplished. a halftime tribute to trump. all right. >> that's going to do it for this edition of abc 7 news. look for breaking news any time on the abc 7 news app. i'm ama daetz. >> i'm larry beil. for spencer, the commissioner, all of us here at abc 7 news. thanks for joining us. see you at 9:00 and 11:0
