Just realized both former Bay Area teams are now 3-0. The last time the 49ers and the Raiders both began their seasons 3-0? 1990.

My district currently ranks 47th out of 48 in average teacher pay in LA County. Pay increases have not kept up with the price of inflation. We have now gone two consecutive years without a settlement. Meanwhile the district and school board are seeking to pad out reserves well above normal.

Given Trump’s Easter threats to carry out new war crimes in Iran, we should think one or two steps ahead about a coup attempt connected to the war. And then deter it. (1/17)
