It is one 49 California spending billions of dollars to fight homelessness, but one state senator questions just how effective those efforts have really been and to get some answers. He's launching an audit. Here's CBS's Keith and Coney. Despite the state's efforts, the homeless population continues to rise, including in San Jose, and so state senator Dave cortesi, who represents the city, is now helping to lead an audit that aims to find out how much of a difference all those state dollars are really making in San Jose and elsewhere. We're a couple of years into the state funding now. It's a lot of money. Before we continue to invest like that, let's see how it's working and let's see where we need to make corrections. That's really the idea. In a statement to kcbs, San Jose's mayor, Matt mahan, says that he's all for auditing the city's work, adding though, that he wants to see the audit include the state and counties as well. Meantime, homeless advocates are applying the audit. Here's longtime San Jose advocate Gail osmer. This issue is bigger than any of us. It is about ensuring transparency in our policy and funding solutions. In the south bay, Keith manconi, an effort is working through the legislature to open more opportunity housing. David Welsh reports a small modular units are intended to address the state's growing housing shortage. Several cities in California have turned to opportunity housing units as one possible solution in solving their regional housing crisis. Versions of the small modular units have popped up in cities like San Francisco and Santa Barbara as a way of providing some relief. Now, state senator Josh Becker wants California to put its weight behind the cause. This is the most hopeful optimistic solution I've seen to solve homelessness with the speed and scale. If the state is a whole hopes to reduce homelessness, the entire state needs to build more housing. But housing projects face huge barriers like land costs, long construction timelines and skyrocketing building prices. Becker says modular units, which are inexpensive to build, serve as a bridge. That may have another use in say three or 5 years, but we can build these units now to get people off the streets now. And we can relocate them as we need to. David Welch, kcbs. New disease caused by birds ingesting plastic. Jim Taylor, with the details. Scientists performing necropsies on dead birds on lord Howe island finding their organs full of plastics. Understanding the threats that plastic cause and understanding it more clearly as is the case when you look at these birds, what plastics can do to the insides of organisms is really important lines of evidence. Yeah, we're talking about these findings with Stanford University, postdoctoral scholar, Matthew savoca, Hopkins marine station, says the organ scarring inside these birds, it's like a human with emphysema. In general are going to be seen, what health effects they might have at a chronic level on organisms that consume those. And this is much more relevant to people because people almost every day are consuming micro plastics through their indoor environment through their food. The alarm is being sounded now because now he says is the time to act. Right? We shouldn't have to have a national or an international health crisis to finally get behind regulating this stuff. It should be, it should happen before it becomes a crisis. At least for people, it's not a crisis yet. And so let's deal with it before it gets to that level.

"Inches of rain over the past 24 hours, and king says the wet weather is just getting started. We're actually monitoring the next kind of weather system that is right now projected to arrive around New Year's Eve. But king says it's going to take a number of these systems to make a dent in the state's drought. Officials with the state's water resources board save long-term forecasts still point to drought, and they're quick to caution that despite a rainy November and December. Last year saw a very dry January through March, and they're expecting the same pattern this year. David Welch, case CBS. With youth fentanyl deaths, rising at an alarming rate south bay educators are stepping in to prevent more overdoses. We get more from case CBS Keith manconi. In Santa Clara county, it's an effort to educate more students and families about the dangers of fentanyl, and also to distribute Narcan, a lifesaving treatment for opioid overdoses. Already, the work is being put to use. Unfortunately, we can share that we've had at least two incidents yet this year since we started our project this fall. County superintendent of schools, Marianne dewan, she explains, those were two incidents in which students were revived using Narcan. Helping to get this message across, geralyn malvas, a mother who lost her own son to an accidental fentanyl overdose. Young people need to know how devastating this is for families. If they lost to one of these poisonous pills, statewide, youth fentanyl deaths have shot up in recent years, reaching nearly 820 20. Why state lawmakers are hoping to spread this program more widely. Keith manconi, just to head on kcbs. We've got Jennifer Hodges telling us about an arrest in the south bay regarding child pornography. Right now we want to get a traffic update.

Also in the south bay, San Jose marking its 60th vehicle fatality last month when a man crashed his car into a property on sanitary boulevard. That's a record high for the city, and the year isn't over yet, city officials are scrambling now to curb the number of traffic fatalities and they plan next year to prioritize traffic safety near schools and launch a robust campaign to try and change driver behavior with a near $1 million marketing effort through billboard signs and social media. During the last decade, traffic deaths in San Jose more than doubled from 29 in 2010 to 60 in 2021, the south Bay City saw most of the deaths on what it calls the 17 most dangerous streets and most of those are on the east side.

Just before you get to Powell, seeing a sudden slow down there could be a crash could be a stall, whatever it is, KCB SMC cameras show westbound idiots, jamming up pretty solid down from university avenue and it stays slow past the scene of that crash or stall onto the bay bridge.

"Prescription only for more information about safety and potential risks, go to find real relief dot com. Right, time for a check of traffic and weather together. Let's go to Gianna. I want to start off with a south bay, and there's no crashes down there, which is good news. I know we're seeing somewhat weather out there, some 6 services, so keeping a close eye on that. Also, if you are headed along 8 80, we are still tracking break whites this morning through Oakland's southbound right at Broadway. This was due to a crash that happened several hours ago, it's been out there since about one this morning, a big rig crash only one lane is open. That is the left lane They are allowing vehicles to use 5 80. In the meantime, when I say vehicles, yes, any vehicle as well as the larger vehicles now typically they don't let larger trucks use 5 80, but they'll make that exception occasionally. When there are lanes blocked on the Nimitz. So if you're in a big rig or a larger truck, you can use 5 80 right now until they clear lane south 8 80 at Broadway. Sadly, this was a fatal crash one person to die in this incident so the investigation is still underway. We'll let you know when lanes open up pretty slick out there though, so be extra careful if you're driving this morning north 6 80 just south of stone ridge. Keep your eyes peeled for a broken down vehicle still stuck in the left lane also eastbound highway four ride at loan tree. There is a trouble spot off to the side of the roadway. And this just into the traffic center, I'm getting first reports of a crash at the airport access road ramp to north one O one. That's right near SFO, so if you've got an early flight to catch, you might see some brake lights as you exit the freeway there trying to head towards the airport. We've got fire crews in CHP on scene there as well. If you see traffic trouble, give us a call on the phone force 415-391-5227. Your next traffic update at 7 28 on the traffic leader.

"A lot of heavy snow, especially along donner pass in a long highway 50, look for one to three feet of snow expected their echo summit and donner pass. CHP says that anyone who does plan to drive up there, you have to have those tire chains, if you leave, and I see this all the time, people leave the Bay Area, they think, hey, I'm on a freeway and they get up there and got to turn around. So go ahead and make sure you have those chains and they fit and you know what? Try to put them on before you actually have to put them on. Trust me, it'll make a world of difference. Just ahead on kcps. I'm Alice words, south bay agencies cooperating, hoping to collect the heavy metal and give out some cash. All that talk about chains and roads, let's go to Gianna Franco for a look at traffic. Yeah, good advice on anyone traveling up to the snow effects HP maximum chains are required to proceed and you farther than eastbound 80 near applegate. They're also screening trucks in that area as well. Good idea to also let anyone know that you are traveling, what time you're leaving and what time you're expected to be there, so they have that plan in place. All right, south 8 80 at Broadway, we are still monitoring a crash here. It's been out there for several hours. It happened about one this morning. This was a big rig that hit the right shoulder wall, and then it caught fire. So a lot of activity still happening in and around the area. And there is an investigation underway. This is south 8 80, right at Broadway, not too far from that 9 80 overpass. Sadly, one person did die in this crash. So this is why this is taking some time for lanes to open up. There is only one lane open. That's the left lane, so in the meantime, you can use 5 80 traffic on 8 80 is pretty slow right now because of this crash 5 80, that's moving great in both directions. So you've got that option instead. Big trucks, larger vehicles, are allowed to use 5 80 right now in the meantime until lanes clear on 8 80. North 6 80 just south of stone ridge, there is a broken down vehicle still stuck in the left lane and westbound 80 just east of red top they just cleared that crash which is good news so that right lane should be open. Northbound 85, we had an earlier struggle spot near two 80. That's now been cleared out of lanes as well. So things are moving a little bit better in the south bay, but slick surfaces, so be extra careful. Your next traffic update at 7 18 on the traffic leader kcbs. Yep, and to that end, we are looking at rain bands moving across the south bay right now and working their way northward throughout the rest of the Bay Area, look for temps to top out around 50° for the most part.

Yeah, well it looks like in the south bay, The Rain is really coming down at the moment, so that's maybe causing it as well, but at least this one is causing quite a bit of a backup already. It's on northbound highway 87 just as you approach east capital express with that you're going to be solid all the way to curtain avenue. Now the good thing is at least under the circumstances that we're able to move it over to the right hand shoulder, but possibly the car is catching fire at least one of them. So they had to call the fire department, so that's what's causing quite a bit of a slowdown through there. Once you get past curtain avenue, it's a smooth ride at two 80. If you jump on two 80 in the southbound direction, you're still going to be under the speed limit it was an earlier crash this past 11th street that has cleared all lanes are open, but now report of a new one just before you get to the one O one interchange right around McLaughlin avenue, no reports of any lanes being blocked, but I am seeing some slowing in that area as well, especially if you transition to southbound one O one, that transition ramp is just solid. And keeping it in San Jose very heavy traffic on 8 80 in the northbound direction from Coleman avenue to just past highway one O one right around gish road.

How AJ's Father Found Their Home in 1966
"My father gets a flat tire driving out to Long Island to go look for a good fishing spot. And Long Island, especially in that area, is right off the great south bay. Which a couple of bridges later leads you to the beautiful Atlantic Ocean, fire island, Jones beach, beautiful, beautiful spots, especially back in the 60s. So gets a flat tire, starts walking down the block, calls snedeker avenue, which is named after an Indian tribe. Because Long Island is filled with algonquin and Iroquois Indian folklore. And as he's walking, he notices these model homes that look nice. Now, back in Brooklyn, it's me, my mother and my father, my two sisters, rose Lee in The Rain, living in a two bedroom apartment on 80th street, 16, 26, 80 street. Not ideal, but it was a wonderful place to be born in Brooklyn is Brooklyn and I love it to my till I die. But to think that for $24,000, he could have a home with three bedrooms and a backyard big enough for a pool. And maybe live on the water or the canal, it was too much. And my father had come up on this model home when he came back to Brooklyn, got his flat fixed, did some fishing in the area because back then, there were no bulkheads, you could walk down the street and some streets didn't even have asphalt. It was just dirt, and you get right to the great south bay, you could walk into the great south bay. Clam go from muscles, cramps, fish, and my dad did just add and came back and brought a few fish home and some clams, and he told my mom, I got much more for you than what's in this SAP. There's some homes. We need to look at. And they went back a week later or so and he showed my mom and his father, my grandfather, who was still alive back then. And my aunt Mary, his sister, where we could live, and you can imagine these people who rarely left bensonhurst Brooklyn. What this new idyllic community looked like. And it was beautiful.

"The most important thing is that three point shooting because remember, the Lakers starting 5 right now vocal has stuck with Avery Bradley and THD in the starting lineup and that is pretty barren in terms of three point shooting in terms of spacing. Avery Bradley can knock them down and shot them at a decent clip this season, but teams don't really respect him from behind the arc tonight. He was two for 5, just fine, 40% for three. You will absolutely take that, but teams don't tend to close out on him, as though he is a knockdown shooter. Taylor Horton Tucker, they really don't close out on. They really just leave him because he has been, he's been terrible shooting in the three this season, and that was something that he was supposed to have worked on all off season. But again, remember, tears of ligament in the thumb of his shooting hand that can undo some of the work that you've put in over the off season. So tonight was a nice step. I'm not going to say, oh, his shot is fixed. He's a great three point shooter now. Frank Vogel did express confidence recently, the THT will indeed be a plus three point shooter. Heading into the future. That that's what is in his future that he's going to be a positive from behind the arc. We haven't seen it for a season yet, but this is a good start. We'll see. One game does not make a breakout shooting performance by any means. But read for 6, it's noteworthy because frankly, he shot poorly for most of the season. Trevor, we missed out on some good trades because the Lakers have this big belief in THT, refused to include him in trade packages. I don't see his growth. So I think there's definitely been growth from THT, particularly if you've been watching him from way back. Like, I'm talking about not last season, but the season before. If you've been watching where he was when he was with the south bay Lakers, where you would just see flashes of his potential, but also a ton of mistakes along the.

Sea Level Rise a Major Threat to San Francisco
"All over the bay Area by 2050 In less than 30 years. Projections show floodwaters swamping bridges, infrastructure and entire neighborhoods. KQED science reporter Kevin Starke has been following this story as part of the Pulitzer Centers nationwide. Connected Coastlines Reporting Initiative and Kevin East Palo Alto specifically, is one community really susceptible to sea level rise in the Bay Area. How much of a threat is this? Well, already Half of the city lies in a federal flood zone. It's bound by water on three sides, the Bay and the San Francis Skeeto Creek. And it's located in the South Bay, where tides of the highest during bad storms the city already regularly experience is flooding. The average high tide in the bay is going in one direction. It's up. Scientific projections show up to a couple feet of sea level rise by mid century, and then the rate of rise could dramatically increase beyond that, so this is truly an existential threat for the community and his power out there. Great and this isn't just about sea level rise right? There are larger social forces at play here, too. Absolutely. The community is roughly two thirds Latino, has a sizable population from the Pacific Islands. In fact, we interviewed people who emigrated to East Palo Alto from places like Samoa and Tonga, in part to get away from flooding and climate change on the islands on me to find that it is an issue here along the bay, so the effects of climate change disproportionately impact communities like East Palo Alto. Many people in the community that we spoke with talk about the cost of housing. There's been a lot of pressure. There is Facebook and Google and other big companies have built campuses nearby. Yet East Palo Alto is this

Most of us in the bay area a familiar with they taste kind of coppery and pungent and this special because they are native to the san francisco bay. But the oysters you just heard me and my friend guzzling actually harvested from our bay scientists. Say it's still too polluted from agricultural runoff and other chemicals like mercury instead. These came from a farm in washington state. However for thousands of years the olympia grew locally in vast numbers three generations back would be a safe to say that our family last word gathering oysters from the bayshore east bay alone chef and food activist vincent medina says the only was a dietary staple for many local tribes including his own ancestors in raw they would also be cooked in earth ovens underneath the ground and with of sea lettuces and different types of seaweed acorn sue vicious meals matthew buca is an environmental historian and has written a book all about the bays voice to full past. He says olympia oysters. All along the west coast stretching from alaska all the way down into central mexico all these perfectly adapted to survive the cold waters of san francisco bay but they need rocky surfaces to grow on matthew says by the mid eighteen hundreds thousands of years of slow sea level rise and melting sierra. Glaciers made the bay muddier. And that's bad for all these. They were struggling. Basically then the gold rush hit and brought thousands of golden protein hungry settlers. It didn't take long for them to destroy the local population forcing oystermen to look further afield. All the estuaries of the west coast are essentially mind for there to satisfy this endless demand from san francisco. Matthew says soon even those far-flung habitats had been plundered. There were relatively few all east left on the entire west coast but there was still a demand for them. So entrepreneurs took to importing non native varieties from the east coast. You can capture baby. Easter's barrel them up. Put them on. Board schooners later on board unrefrigerated train cars ship them across the entire united states and then they would be placed into san francisco.

A bubble whispered romance adventure but even the imported oysters didn't survive in the san francisco. Bay for long the already muddy waters were made worse by mining in the sierra during the gold rushes. This turned up more modern sanders sweat downriver. So the san francisco bay historian matthew book says grow moved their atlantic choices to the south bay when mantras less of a problem but heavy industry and human sewage polluted. The bay waters a rash of deaths connected to eating contaminated puts an end to the san francisco bay oyster industry so by the early twentieth century. There are plenty of oyster bay but the people eating them are no longer so sure if this is the right. Food in the nineteen thirties bombing resumed in the clean waters of drake's in somalia's base north of san francisco but the focus especially after world. War two was on pacific oyster varieties from japan. Interesting cultivating the native olympia oyster as a food source dwindled. It still hasn't really come back. So will we ever be able to eat the native only ounce of the bay again even though no always does a grown in san francisco bay food there are efforts to bring them back to help restore the based delicate ecosystem and ecologists have focused on the native. Only that once thrived here sickle spot. Oh you been question. Scott joseph fletcher at the bay natives. Plant nursery in the bayview to interview linda hunter. She's the founder and director of the wild oyster project. Oysters have so many wonderful benefits. Linda tells us does have superpowers. So one grown oyster can filter fifty gallons of water a day. Oysters helped maintain the balance of marine ecosystem but reducing algae and sediment that can contribute to low oxygen levels causing other marine life to die. There's also the fact that oysters provide have attacked for other critters we as cluster on discarded shells rocks peers and heart submerged surfaces. They fuse together.

It's been proven that voice to rapes attenuate. The effects of rising tides caused by the wild oyster projects is trying to rebuild these reefs. That works starts with collecting discarded oyster shells from local restaurants and piling them. Up part sites like bay natives shows in.

And i said Have you noticed more fish. And he said yes. I have thank you very much. But before they can be turned into reefs. The oyster shells needs to be clete. And that's where the chickens come in. They natives is home to about two dozen chickens. This is the chicken launch. There's not chickens. you have to clean the shell.

Life before
"We have a podcast on past life regression shared dreams also is mutual dreams are when two or more people share a dream experience at the same time. The degree to which the dream is, share can vary from having common elements or events of tap an each person streaming to the entire dream being identical imagine a shared dream where the dreamers don't know each other both go to the same counselor the dream environment for each is the same solely populated with the other dreamer. The counselor, The Observer never reveals that the person occupying that dream is not a figment of the imagination but another client. One male one female in the man's dream he is pursuing female in the woman's Dream Xi is being pursued by him. This was a strange case an Oregon College counselor was confronted with in one thousand, nine, hundred, sixty, seven during each visit by the man it was confessed that with each dream he was more bold in his pursuit of the woman the woman confessed during her sessions that she feared the outcome if the man in her dream. Should catch up to her after questioning each dreamer about the environment it was determined that either knew the location of their dreams. But from the description provided by each counselor was able to pinpoint London at from the description of the streets buildings pollution and the dress she estimated about the eighteen eighty somewhere the counselor was concerned that the activity in the to dreams was becoming more interwoven yet the paths of the dreamers and they're waking lives never crossed. When the activities in the dreams became so intense that it was affecting daily activities of both dreamers, the counselor believed it was time for an intervention. Still she couldn't figure out why London why the eighteen eighties she requested detail family histories. The man's family ancestry ended abruptly with the adoption of his great great grandfather whose occupation was a physician in London in the eighteen eighty s the woman's family line ended equally abruptly when her great great grandmother was murdered in the White Chapel region of London's decide the counselor was shocked at the seemingly coincidental location and year of the family tree of each dreamer and how they were intertwined crossing campus one day she picked up a newspaper and was saddened to see that a series of brutal murders of women in the nearby town of Medford had gone unsolved. Approve the woman's occupations they were prostitutes, but no one deserved to be murdered in such a horrible manner. This rating gutted she read the article as she walked toward the trash camp but stopped short of dropping it into the garbage when she got to the part, the compared the murders in Medford to those committed by Jack The ripper in the White Chapel district of London in eighteen eighty eight she decided after reading about the local murders and based on how disturbed her clients were by their dreams. That the intervention would be past life regression. She was convinced that by understanding the rationale for the dreams, she would be able to resolve the stress associated by them. The man was scheduled to see her two days before the woman she placed him in a hypnotic transit allowed her to regress him. When she questioned him about his environment is verbal response was rude and his accent difficult to understand at first. When she questioned him about the young woman, he was pursuing he became so agitated with descriptions of the acts of violence he would dispatch her with the counselor immediately brought him out of the Trans she made no mention of what he had revealed to her for fear of upsetting him over the next two days she read several counts of the ripper murders. There were so close to the description of what the man describe while experiencing past life regression. The she decided that no matter what was revealed when she hypnotized woman, she would hold back nothing and maybe even warn her the young woman was easily hypnotized and under pointed questioning revealed her name is Catherine. eddoes. The counselor noted this on a pad during the session she was surprise when the young woman rolled bucked on the couch thinking this was some kind of seizure she sat down or. Notebook with the intention of bringing the woman out of the hypnotic state. But stopped when it became apparent that the young woman as Catherine eddoes was having sex when the gyration stopped, she quickly brought her out of the trance before leaving the office and after considerable questioning the counselor learned that her client was the great great granddaughter of the Fourth Victim of Jack The ripper and yes her great great grandmother that a prostitute. So shocked was a counselor. She let the woman leave her office. Without a warning, the school year came to an end clients graduated and left the area.

Stress Addiction and Hustle Culture
"You said Hustle Culture and I know that's that's like a trigger word I think for for a Lotta people What what is your take on that like I mean. Do you subscribe to that or are you a hustler. What do you think all right? This is Uh getting into words and cutting things apart for me. I think there's a couple of ways to interpret hustle and in the way that I've always looked at it means to be busy to do work and to work hard. Put your nose down and just do the frigging work right and to some other people. I think there's a hustle and Hustler and then that has a different connotation altogether like hustler or somebody who who who works but is working the scene. He's trying to take a shortcut and take advantage of people like Hustler. Is that the other connotation. Yeah I think I probably used the wrong term but like I what I what I meant to ask was when when I think of like hustle culture I think of like you know Gary v and those people were like yeah. Let's work eighteen hours a day. No Life And you know because that's what it takes. Yeah and I. I guess what I'm asking you is. Is that what it tastes? Do you think that's like a rule you have to do that? Like what does it take? Maybe that's the quest Abazam so I I think I'm an old school guy. I came up in a time in which we were working in school and then shortly thereafter. That culture was fostered in school. Where you're up literally all night and I've had probably a couple of back to back all nighters. Maybe I slept one or two hours. In a period of forty eight. Seventy two hours went delirious because I remember driving down the road in Glendale and waking up while driving on the opposite side of the road and freaked out. Oh my God. These things happened to me all the time I would start to hallucinate. I remember this very vividly. Because when you don't have enough sleep you enter into the dream state while still awake right right. So you're having a waking dream and it can be very scary. I'm driving down Holly Street towards Art Center and it's late at night. I think I went to get dinner or something. And then I'm driving up back to the campus late at night and remember the canopy of trees that line the street reaching down to my car and I was like freaking out and the distance in which I was driving from that point to the point in which I turned to go up. The hillside wasn't very far but felt like it was forever. But there's nothing I can do because what do I do? Do I pull over and take a nap and done that? Mind you while at art center I would pull over at a gas station and just go to sleep for a little while right. Yeah did you do that? I remember a time where I I think. I think those off while while driving home is during during school during during college notice right. Yeah because I'd stayed up. You know I usually sleep in my car and just work. You know at school overnight through the weekend and stuff and one time I was like I gotta go home at shower man and did and it was a mistake because I I woke up. I think because my tire like hit the curb and I was like. Oh this is where the neighborhood No I was driving along. I think it was Lincoln Boulevard because I lived in the South Bay at the time. Yeah it was scary. It was really really scary. And was that a wakeup call for you or you. Just pass it off like okay manager. Time better we'll also get through this. Oh no major major. Wake up call. Okay Yeah Yeah I mean I still like did the all nighters and stuff but I'm like not driving from that tired I. I'm just going to sleep at a friend's house sleepy my car. Whatever I'm not going to risk getting on the road. No I want to tell you one thing that most people don't know about me everybody's enjoying their like hand ground freshly made coffee here. I don't like to drink coffee because I have a very strong negative emotion around coffey. I'm not a coffee drinker. Okay you said emotion. I thought you were gonNA say reaction but only been interesting so I don't drink coffee but I know coffee has caffeine and when you're up on these kind of long marathon runs when you don't go when you go a long distance without sleep. I remember pulling over to seven eleven and I got myself a giant thing of coffee in. It's probably five six in the morning and I'm really tired already. I'm slamming this thing down and I'm trying to drive to art center and my heart. My head's wants to explode. I wanted to vomit. But it couldn't vomit. There was just crazy amounts of caffeine in my body and I can still remember that drive and it was just horrific wanting to vomit my heart racing. Every just head throbbing. Still I still have to get the mission done. I still have to get to school and deliver my project or whatever it was I was doing but that day for and I was like coffee in me. I think we're done. It was a short lived romance. And so that's why I don't drink coffee. I probably wouldn't either after that. Yeah so hustle. Yes a culture right and I think for a lot of people maybe more so men than women but it's like we would look at each other. Yeah see each other down the hallway and say You up all night. Yeah me too. How long how long have you been going without sleep? And it would be a badge of honor and so yeah. That was kinda fostered in art school. So when you get Outta school you continue down that same path. Like why would that change? It's now work. Now you're getting paid in. The stakes are higher and get caught up in that. I do remember many nights where I would fall asleep at my desktop. We're talking about four in the morning and just sitting there like. Oh my gosh waiting for something to refresh or something to render something and then be being jolted back awake because it made a sound the computer right analyst right you know and I've had for some time Pulling all nighters with my insurance and we used to say this at the office the until you and I have seen the sunrise together and that's not a good way to work. Yeah and it took a while and I think there's going to be a bunch of people are going to listen to this and say to themselves who I remember those days. I'm still in those days. That's what it takes this old guard. That thinks that that's the way you have to work in anybody else's work that hard is trying to shortcut is some kind of charlatan. Doesn't want to pay their dues. But I started to examine our work cultural work life. We held the client's needs their projects. Their deadlines their lack of planning above our own safety in our health And I worried about the people who worked at our office. I worried about the long term health benefits and we started to change our culture here. We started to institute policies where we're not going to take on projects on Friday night. That's due on Monday. Because we basically just killed everybody's recharge time we killed everybody's personal time. We're going to create distance intention in relationships that go outside of this office so we changed that and and that came at some friction to our sales people because they wanted us to go after every single job no matter what right so there was a financial consequence to making these kind of decisions. We would also institute you know what we got to just end work around seven o'clock give me a good honest eight hours of your work your bass and we'll have to save the rest for the next day that meant that we couldn't take on. Projects had crazy deadlines with unrealistic goals or to be understaffed. Weren't perfect but for many years. We did this without having to work a single day on the weekend or long hours at night and if it was working long hours at night. It was almost always self-imposed not because of management because of artistic desire it was the call of the person. Who's working on it that they wanted to put on put in a little bit extra work.

Google Eyes San Jose For a New Campus
"Valley is home to countless companies and their employees but as those companies have grown. They've caused the cost of living in the area to skyrocket and created a housing was in crisis. But it's getting crowded. Another star companies are expanding to other cities cities that are learning to be cautious about the potential harm. That could come with. These is new businesses that brings us to Google. They're looking to build a new campus. In San Jose and Tech reporter Rob Copeland has been checking it out. Rob Thanks for joining joining us. Thank you for having me so tell us about what this New Campus in San. Jose is supposed to look like so to understand Dan. This you have to take a step back and realize that Silicon Valley is sort of a hot word but SAN JOSE is right on the edge of it. It's in the South Bay it's about about depending on the traffic could be two two and a half hours south of San Francisco so this is sort of the hinterlands of Silicon Valley. It's it's barely there and what Google has said is we need a ton of new space for twenty five thousand additional employees so we have to start looking at these places that we weren't willing to go to before four so they're looking to build a giant campus twice as much office space as the Empire State building around what is not a particularly attractive neighborhood in in San Jose. Now you mentioned the Empire State Building that is a very tall building with many many floors as is very typical for New York City. I'm guessing they're not going to take up a very small space and Make a skyscraper in the middle of San Jose Correct San Jose like most of the bay area and in fact like almost everywhere we were in California outside of La in a few blocks in San Francisco is extremely SM- sprawling. It's not a skyscraper place. So here we're talking about about an extended campus along a river. Google hasn't said exactly how tall the buildings will be. But we're looking at ten twenty maybe one building of twenty five stories and it's really going to transform what is a bunch of parking lots Into perhaps a new city so one would assume that a place that just has a bunch of parking lots and is on the very edge of Silicon Valley would be thrilled to have google come in and set up a headquarters there. How is San Jose reacting will well? That's the really interesting thing. The traditional theory here is you know everyone wants to be Rochester with Kodak or they WanNa be Hershey with Hershey. But there's a big difference between between how the San Jose city leadership feels about Google. And how a lot of residents to the city leadership says hey a huge employer our residents need jobs and and frankly they pay taxes that we can fund schools and all sorts of other obviously city services but at public hearings. And when I've spent a lot of time in San Jose as talking to residents they feared the other end of this the gentrification and the getting pushed out of their homes than the feeling frankly that San Dan Jose will change culturally. It will just be another place full of tech frozen Patagonia fleeces and not just a cultural aspect right. I mean there's an affordability ludi questioned. That happens when people with a lot of money come into a town. That isn't used to those kinds of incomes right exactly. This is a problem acute problem in the bay area. And it's a problem in California at large California's incredibly popular place to set up a business particularly in tech or entertainment but local regulations. Make it close to impossible to build new housing. So this isn't exactly rocket science here if you've taken one economics class or if you've wikipedia supply and demand if you've got a whole bunch of new rich employees coming in and you're not building new homes. They'RE GONNA bid up the price of existing homes and that's GonNa make it too expensive for the people who live in those homes now. I'm thinking this reminds me a lot of when Amazon announced plans to build a second heart headquarters One in Virginia and then one here in New New York that didn't go over so well. With residents in New York and in fact those plans were and ended up being Scrapped completely Amazon. Pulled out of New York. How outed Google go about trying to win over San Jose right so there are some important differences but also some similarities? The big differences Amazon ran what was essentially a beauty contest. They went to a bunch of cities including frankly a lot of them they were never going to move to and they said make us. Your best offer gives us tax credits convince us why we should come to you. And at the end of the day that led to the axing of you know H Q two in New York. Google has said few really important things here one no tax credits. They say we're going to actually pay San Jose above and beyond what the law says. We don't want money from them. We're GONNA give that money. They have also said. We're not running a competitive process. You know we're not going to go to the next city over. If this doesn't work for San Jose were just in it for San Jose. We want this to work in San Jose and and the The other bit is that Google is not just talking to the city about housing. You know they're lobbying the state they're making contributions to community groups. You can be cynical or you can not but they do appear to be trying to be a bit more of a corporate citizen here. Why do they want to go to San Jose? What is San Jose have to offer that? They're so excited about so. San Jose is is at the very bottom of Silicon Valley. But it's right around a train station and this isn't that sexy but it's true if you could get workers to take the train from San Francisco South to San Jose you can have a faster way for them to get to work and you could potentially attract better talent and San. Jose is a big city right. You know I was actually surprised when I started this project few months ago. San Jose is the tenth biggest city in the country. This is a huge city on its own right and it already has big problems. You Walk through downtown. There's punishing homelessness and there aren't any easy solutions there. So the idea that you would take all this open space and you build offices for tech workers is. It's a difficult pitch for some people. Is this a tide shift. I mean is it just Google being a corporate citizen or tech companies realizing that not just winning over a local officials is not going to get them the headquarters that they want your exactly right. The problem is these tech giants are sort of the big bad wolf wolf right now. And it's not just in housing and it's not just in San Jose and when you talk to executives out here which is you know we have a whole office of people and that's what we do all day. They're sort of shocked that the our companies are considered. You know the enemy so this is an effort at a very important juncture for Google which is under investigation nation by the government to sort of put. Its most friendly foot forward and to try to make this work. We've also seen tech companies responding to their airport in the housing crisis in California. Just for people who aren't there. Can you just give us some perspective and some scope on how big of an issue the housing crisis is in the the bay area and why people in San Jose could be really concerned. Seen somebody like Google come in a company like go come in. So here's a really telling stat. FACEBOOK FACEBOOK has a program in which they will pay the difference in rent for a handful of teachers in Palo Alto which is very rich town right by facebook headquarters so facebook has said. If you're a teacher and you can't afford to live in Palo Alto. We will pay the difference between your rent and thirty percent of income so a unreasonable rent and facebook is paying more than thirty thousand dollars a year in rent subsidies for these teachers as thirty thousand dollars ahead there. So there's a huge gap between what quote regular people make and how much you'd have to make to just live so this is a crisis. That's getting worse. Frankly not better. And it's something that affects. Frankly everyone in the bay area you know from facebook isn't the only big company that's done stuff like this right. I mean apple has committed. Did two point. Five billion dollars for affordable housing in California. Google has already done and meet some land donations in San Francisco so we are seeing them. Address is this issue but obviously that's just kind of the tip of the iceberg to direct via situation that they were largely part of creating. What's next for Google and San Jose? How close are we to seeing this deal actually announced? This is a very important year for Google and San Jose before the end of the year. We're going to see the San Jose City Council. Vote on this over the next few months. Google is going to come out with its quote community packages basically the money. It's willing to pay a to various groups in San Jose to build affordable housing to build homeless shelters to set aside areas for park land. So this is going to be a big negotiation in a big back and forth. And let's not forget Google search engine. It's a big advertising company and it's a public company at the end of the day if it doesn't make sense for shareholders it's not GonNa do it would rob Copeland reporting from San Francisco. Thanks so much for joining us so much

Bay Curious
What's the Real History of El Camino Real?
"If you live or work on the San Francisco Peninsula you probably spent a lot of time on El Camino Royale Road that runs from San Francisco to San Jose through the center of many towns. Along the way. It's one of California's best known roads. And if you grew grew up here you probably learned about it in school. The story goes L. Community out is an ancient road built by the Spanish to connect the twenty one missions along on California's coast. But here's the thing that story. It's not exactly true. This big curious. I'm Olivia Allen Price Today. We're bringing you a story that first aired on our show back in twenty seventeen about the real history of El Camino real support for bay. Curious comes from Sierra. Nevada Brewing Company family owned operated and argued over since one thousand nine hundred reminding listeners to think for themselves but drink with others. SIERRA SIERRA NEVADA DOT COM K. Committees Rachel myrow senior editor of the Silicon Valley Newsdesk hit the trail with this week's question. Asker we met at mission in Santa Clara because this story dates all the way back to the Spanish colonial era in California. My name is Debbie Tori. I live in Campbell California Tori aspect curious the question. What can you find out about the El Camino real history? My name is Robert Cinco. wits professor of history at Santa Clara University sank quits is the man who can answer that and then some starting with the perhaps surprising truth that there were many El Camino rails all over the land. Spain used to control in the WHO world from seventeen sixty nine to eighteen twenty one royal roads. That was what you would call the main roads in any particular area because technically all of us belong to the King of Spain but wait. I read on wikipedia that this El Camino real but one in silicon valley is part of the historic mission trail on ancient fro that connects the Spanish missions. Like a string of pearls along the California coast. Also I'm pretty sure I heard somewhere possibly in school that the distance between each mission. It's supposed to be about a day's journey. What happened has to do more with southern California than it does with with Northern California a by about the eighteen seventies? As you get more and more Anglo Americans coming in the southern California and the the angle population really increases With the arrival of the railroads in Los Angeles listen the eighteen eighties now in America. There's a rich tradition of just got here yesterday. People concocting romantic origin myths and a number of influential fluential southern Californians wanted one of their own. They looked around and saw crumbling. Spanish missions twenty one of them stretching from the Mexican border all the way north to Sonoma's. Here's the story is told in Nineteen Fifty one promotional film for Greyhound buses called Freedom Highway Bridge the same road. The Spaniards followed almost two hundred years ago. Only they call it El Camino real kings highway. China imagine how was on horseback. Of course what was really going on here was the enslavement of local tribespeople. who were reeling under? The impact of European diseases forced religious religious conversion and the destruction of their entire way of life. Not that our question Asker Debbie Tori or I learned much of this in the fourth grade which is when a lot of California school. Children studied the subject. You're right they did glamorize it thinking it was a wonderful. The mission passed that they've construct was a fantasy past ROIC missionaries happy contented. Indians Fandango is all over the place. You know the Spanish mich- often enough you read and textbook that they blazed trails but they didn't blaze trails. They follow trails. That had already been developed by the indigenous people up and down the California coast I but at the turn of the twentieth century few people wanted that version of history. They wanted something fun. Happy Exotic groups like the landmarks club and the native daughters of the Golden West pushed to reframe collection of dirt roads into a rediscovered king's highway and the Automobile Appeal Club of southern California kind of sides. This fantasy past is a great way of getting people to buy drive automobiles and so what they do. is they begin. The push the notion that there was one central road which they named the commuter rail that connected the missions they began to push the notion commissions were located A day's journey from each other. You know which kind of when you think about. It makes them motels rather than what they actually were. Agents of simulation immolation of of the native peoples so wind in northern California. Play along with this southern California Fantasy Sanca wits says the concept caught on with wealthy Californians leg Jane Stanford wife of the Real Road Barren Lewin Stanford and wealthy Catholics like San Francisco. Mayor James Phelan Eland. They wanted the Spanish missions restored to something like their former glory. Lot of them were in really sad shape. If you look at pictures from the eighteen sixties exceeds eighteen seventies. The missions are crumbling. Consider this if the Spanish revival movement had not happened we might be looking at a string ruins along the California coast standing inside the sumptuous renovated mission. Santa Clara on the Modern Day campus of Santa Clara University Tori agrees. I'm actually kind of speechless. Listen here it's it's just magnificent. I feel like I'm in Europe. Then we hop in a modern day car and drive a half an hour to mission San Jose which is actually in modern day Fremont think of it as a mini mission road trip focused on the South Bay and here in Fremont we find one of the most historically accurate restorations in the California commission system and the on site museum is not to miss. debby Tori grabs a fact based map of the missions from the gift shop. So so debbie do you see yourself going on a mission tour. After this as a matter of fact yes. Tory took her kids on a mission tour like this years ago but told them a lot of Steph. She genuinely believed the turns out to be bunk. Her grandkids will get the truth. But Rachel I still have a question so every now. And then. When I'm driving along El Camino scenerio I will see a shepherd's crook on the side of the road and from the Crook hangs a bell that I have been told Marks this historic historic trail. Are those what's deal with spells. I guess those also stem back to the same period of time when people I came up with El Camino Rail There was a wife of a foundry owner in Los Angeles who conveniently suggested that she could manufacture these handy bells that were sort of reminiscent. I'm a nuisance of the Spanish era. Up and down the new route that they had just created Mrs Arbitrage C. E. Forbes and and in one thousand nine hundred ninety six cal trans decided to resurrect the bells So you'll spot him one or two miles apart on a variety of state routes because of course there isn't one route reality fantasy. Don't quite match up REX payer dollar's have helped to feed this fantasy fans. Yes well the taxpayer dollars to feed it the first time too so people are making money off of this. Yes this is a a two million dollar testament to the enduring appeal wheel of a made up version of history.

Bushwick Bill, Bushwick And Bill discussed on On The Mic
"Today. Some, some sad news for hip hop fans, especially hip hop fans of a certain age, Bushwick Bill when the main members of ghetto boys passed away at the age of fifty two had been suffering from stage, four pancreatic cancer. When the ghetto boys came out, it was it was such a pivotal time in hip hop. History Ryan as music started to evolve and, you know, we have the term in hip hop, gangsta, rap, which I've never been a fan of. But it defines a certain genre of him on and the ghetto boys were definitely from that ilk. But what was different about them is not necessarily things they were rapping about, but were they? Were wrapping from gathering Lewis originated in Los Angeles. In that area, NWEA the Dr dre ice, cube the whole group, but the ghetto boys were from Houston and southern rap and southern gangster rat is different, as you would think, food from the south would be different cars from the south will be different based on where you live and the ghetto boys were the spear of that movement, and southern rat, and for, for the news today that Bushwick Bill died at the age of fifty two, I think, for a lot of hip hop, fans definitely gonna be a sad day. No, it really is. And I think you brought up, what was the very pertinent point to me was that they were from the south, you know, and at the time it was, it was east coast and west coast, east coast was the birthplace of, and then when you got in w became, you know, west coast was a big deal, but for us that was what you listen to, you know, when, when he came on day by day, it's more, you know, those things got you excited in for us. It was. Something that even if you couldn't relate to the life, they were talking about you relate to the things in the places that they were mentioning. And so it's, it's a huge loss, and I think not only people from the south or from h town from wherever you were listening to music from at the time, I think everybody will have some type of feeling about losing someone who is really a legend in creating a space for rappers from the south bay. You know, wasn't necessarily a huge deal before them. The a lot of respect being paid the Bushwick Bill. Some of you may not be very familiar with the group to get a boy's Bushwick, Bill himself. But what made him also unique in the red game is that he was a little person, right? And all about hip hop music at a certain era was about being hard and tough. And whether it's tough MC toughen streets. But you got this little person out there, who was, you know, talking everything you hear about the streets gave a different persona to certain people. And for little people around the country, they were in the hip hop, music. He represented them in a way, they'd never been represented before just way Ryan was talking about how the south was being represented right in music. But a lot of people paying respects to him including ice cube. He put on Twitter, quote, rest in beats to my homeboy Bushwick. Bill from the trigger happy blank, ghetto boys. He never backed down, even though he was low to the ground, a true original, you know, that's what was so. So funny, though, Eve's about his voice was that, that was the last thing you thought about what you thought Bush would Bill. You're right. You know. And I don't mean thing you saw lasting right? Right. I don't mean just as voice in a way it sound saying the voice, he created a rat like that wasn't even how you saw Bushwick, Bill. I remember one of my favorite mart episodes is more and God jumped Morton is I jumped on my little people, and Bushwick. Bill was the leader of that group. And the way he was talking to Martin Carrie. Himself. He was six to in his mind. Right. And that was the way he wrap. That was the way he carried himself. And after a while that was the way you felt about him. And so I think it's I think is really awesome. That, you know, these other great rappers these other legends and rep are kind of giving him his do as to what he meant to hip hop, who else thinks they're six to a closer to five to who's L Dunkin, but see. She got us a real six to kind of personality persona too. So I get it. I don't mess with her. Don't let it have some hills and be stopping into somebody's living room, real quick. To the contrary. I actually think have short man syndrome, which is where most of my attitude comes from, because I'm just all bark and no bite odor. I know a lot about the. Definitely scares you off enough to even try. Crazy. Right. Right. Right. Just don't wanna know because then you gotta make a decision, L, let me because we're talking about Bushwick, Bill passing away the age of fifty two in what the group ghetto boys min at the time, and most things music, always bring stuff to you. And we were talking about being from the south all three of you Ryan and I grew up in the south unit Lanta Atlanta had its own different aspect of southern hip hop music, and that whole thing, but the link of that, and the representation from the south being able to have voices could be heard on both coasts. How do you put those things together in the wake of Bush Bill passing away? Yeah. I mean you know you you've mentioned it. I think that Atlanta, especially old Atlanta hip hop. It's anonymous with fake outcast but even before head, you know, the dungeon family in general, and DJ's that used to come from here, and the sound that we kind of we had to kind of take Miami sound for that because it was the farthest south that really resonated nationally. So I mean it just meant a lot because you felt like it I would go back to the source awards booed off stage, and they just kept saying the same thing, which is has something to say and I just like that feeling so incredibly proud, you know, we didn't really have sports teams to cling onto in Atlanta growing up, so being able to have like Outkast who was hours. She talked like us and talked about things that we understood to happen. And later TI and paving the way for guys like future in to change. Now I mean it's incredible to sink, like how far has come in terms of hip hop, and how they're really powerhouse when it comes to putting

What websites they visit what they shop for on Amazon in the like, well, accepted the way Facebook went about fishing for our data which blew up this week when it was revealed that the social network did an Enron around Apple's policies. It wasn't kosher apple kit. Facebook out it did the same thing with Google this week as well. But that's another story more on both in a minute Jefferson Graham here talking tech the weekend edition where we look at some of the big stories from the week. Now, remember that apple and Facebook have a totally different way of looking at our information Facebook appears to covet every morsel it can gather about us as a way of selling targeted advertising. Apple says, it doesn't want to know and makes a big deal of saying that it doesn't monitor your key strokes on the iphone series searches or mapping routes every apple product is designed from the ground up to protect. Mation? The company says Facebook, of course, sucks up our data every time we like a photo comment on a post share life event by an item through its marketplace reach out to friends far and wide on messenger. So I wondered what would have Facebook look like if it had here to the strict pro privacy policy of apple could there even be a social network at all. Yes. But it would be different argues Bennett ciphers. He's a staff technologist at the electron ick. Frontier foundation advocacy group, I spoke to him this week a few times, and he says the network would still be hungry for your data. But it would ask permission first and be less, greedy. Now, the two sides of the story one Tim cook, apple CEO. He says you are not our product you are customer. Okay. In the Wall Street Journal Facebook co founder, Mark Zuckerberg said that users want relevant ads in the make them. So we need to understand their. Interests. So based on what pages people like what they click on and other signals, we create categories and in charge advertisers to show adds to that category. He also said that users have control over what kind of information is being shown to us and that we can block any advertiser from reaching. You ha- did hear that who has blocked any advertisers? That is out there listening right now because I know that I've clicked every button on Facebook to stop advertisers from tracking me, and I've got a good news, bad news. Now, I did kill the relevant ads, but I still have non-relevant advertisers, who are all over me auto dealers from Wisconsin Arkansas and Colorado along with a chiropractor in corona which is about an hour from my home. I think everybody knows that I live in the south bay area near Los Angeles. I clicked the buttons in the security settings to keep out the snoopers most people, I believe don't and despite the headlines of the past year about hacks and other ill. Nls Facebook has more users and made more money than a year ago. It revealed this week in its earning report ciphers of the electronic frontier foundation insists that in a retooled less data thirsty. Facebook users could still go to their news feed see posted friends with ads based on their travels in interest. Facebook just doesn't have to keep tracking you when you leave the social network, the it was called the pixel code debts on over two million websites. It's through that pixel code that when you shop or something on Amazon without buying it while I you see an ad for it within minutes on Facebook or you stopped by a local where you stop by a local big box grocer by something and hand over your loyalty card, and then get pinged with an ad from the grocer when you turn on Facebook again, because even if you're not on Facebook, they still know what you're doing. So does Google every time you search for something Google notes, your interest demographic vocation when you sign into watch YouTube in auto play videos based on your viewing history. It only. Got that information because you gave it to Google did oh, of course, for using Google maps trips and other Google apps the track you so as apple really clean well GPS iphones will track. Our every move even if apple insists, it doesn't hold onto the information. This week apple had its own privacy flap when it was discovered that a bug in the FaceTime video calling system could listen in on the caller before the call was even accepted, apple apologize. Pull down the feature and says it will return Monday working like it's supposed to the Asaf wear update now beyond its short-term bands on internal apps.
