Quick Glance: Oakland Airport Considers Adding 'San Francisco' to Name

Oakland International Airport is considering adding 'San Francisco' to its name to attract more passengers, but faces opposition from neighbors across the Bay.

The Board of Commissioners for the Port of Oakland will discuss the matter at their upcoming meeting on Thursday.

Officially known as Metropolitan Oakland International Airport, the airport lost 39 of 54 new routes added from July 2008 to March 2024, raising concerns about geographical confusion among travelers.

The potential name-change has alarmed San Francisco officials, who fear it would cause confusion among travelers and infringe on the city's trademark rights.

Quick Glance: Wave of Pro-Palestinian Protests Blocks Bridges in the U.S.

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators blocked roads, highways, and bridges across the country on Monday, causing traffic disruptions and arrests. Some activists viewed this as a coordinated day of economic protest against the Israel-Gaza war.

The protests spanned the nation from San Francisco to New York, where demonstrators blocked traffic and held rallies. Similar actions were reported in Philadelphia, Chicago, Miami, and San Antonio.

The demonstrations began in the morning in various cities and had been dispersed by Monday evening by authorities. There were dozens of arrests, but no significant violence was reported.

Protesters called for an end to arms exports to the region and criticized the humanitarian situation in besieged Gaza, highlighting the disproportionate impact on women and children. The U.S. has been a major supporter of Israel since World War II.

Quick Glance: Tesla to Cut 14,000 Jobs, Elon Musk Aims for Lean Brand

Tesla is laying off more than 10% of its global workforce, equivalent to at least 14,000 roles, in response to slowing demand and price pressure.

Elon Musk announced the 'difficult decision' in a memo, mentioning that Tesla had experienced role and function duplications in certain areas due to rapid growth in recent years.

The job cuts follow a difficult start to the year for the electric carmaker, citing production problems caused by unforeseen factors and a decline in global demand.

Tesla recorded a gross profit margin of 17.6% in the fourth quarter, the lowest in over four years, attributed to repeated price cuts and increased competition in China.

Why Is Civil War So Evasive About the Nature of Its Civil War?: Alex Garland’s studious “objectivity” isn’t enough.

Quick Glance: A24's 'Civil War' movie portrays a divided America

Alex Garland’s 'Civil War' takes place in a dystopian near-future version of a divided U.S.

A group of journalists travels through empty cities and deserted roads to Washington to overthrow a dictatorial president.

Critics expressed concerns over Garland's vague approach to the film's politics, amidst online debates surrounding it.

A24 heavily focuses on a marketing campaign that encourages viewers to 'pledge' allegiance and describe their type of American to promote the film.

Quick Glance: Major Burger King California Franchisee Introduces Order Kiosks Due to $20 Wage Impact

Harsh Ghai stated in an early April interview that 25% of his restaurants already have kiosks, with the remaining 75% set to be equipped within the next 30 to 60 days.

The new minimum wage for limited-service restaurant chains with at least 60 nationwide locations took effect on April 1, standing 25% higher than California's general minimum wage of $16 per hour.

Ghai plans to offset the higher labor costs by implementing measures such as reducing work hours, introducing kiosks, and halting the development of new restaurants.

Fast-food chains are accelerating the deployment of order kiosks in US locations to cut labor costs, with the introduction becoming more pressing due to California's new $20 minimum wage.

President Biden plans to expand the boundaries of two national monuments in California in the coming weeks to bolster his conservation record and increase access to nature for disadvantaged communities.

Biden is expected to sign proclamations expanding the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument and the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument, both originally designated by President Barack Obama.

Conservation groups, Native American tribes, and California lawmakers have all called on Biden to expand these monuments.

Biden has set an ambitious goal of conserving 30 percent of America’s lands and waters by 2030, and has already designated five new national monuments, many of which are on lands that area tribes consider sacred.

Quick Glance: Audit: Lack of Transparency in Tracking Homelessness Spending in San Jose

A recently released state audit revealed that over the past three years, San Jose has not consistently reported on the expenditure of over $300 million to combat homelessness. This raises doubts about whether the money is actually contributing to alleviating the crisis.

The report also found that San Jose lacks clear goals for its homelessness programs and does not have a cohesive plan for building the necessary affordable housing for the estimated 6,340 homeless residents.

Auditors presented a series of recommendations for San Jose to implement by September, including public reporting on homelessness spending, developing a response plan with specific goals, and monitoring the performance of nonprofit service providers.

Despite some disputes over the findings, the city has already started implementing many of the audit's recommendations. Mayor Matt Mahan emphasized the importance of setting goals, measuring results, and being accountable for outcomes.

Upset over California's $20 wage? What fast-food CEOs make: California's fast-food workers now have a $20 minimum wage. If you think that's too much ...

latimes.com/opinion/letters-to-the-editor/story/2024-04-04/upset-over-californias-20-wage-what-fast-food-ceos-make

Quick Glance: Comparison: CEO Salaries vs. Minimum Wage in California

Given the new $20 minimum wage for California's fast-food workers, it's important to examine the salaries of their CEOs.

The CEOs of Chipotle and McDonald's Corp. earn substantial amounts while their employees struggle. It is suggested that they reduce their bonuses to pay their workers a living wage instead of passing costs to customers or threatening staff cuts.

Supermarkets are increasing prices, making it challenging for even high earners to afford healthy food. The notion that supermarkets are the primary source for affordable, healthy food is diminishing.

The new $20 minimum wage for fast-food workers is deemed reasonable as their earnings circulate back into the economy to provide food, shelter, and healthcare for many in need.
