Welcome back to the nine. We are starting off with a gorgeous look at that pretty city. If youre going cruising, youre in luck. If youre staying here at home, we have some changing weather, especially by saturday. If you have outside plans, you may have to rethink them. Well talk about that in a second. First, lets talk about buying a house. Weve discussed how difficult it is. A growing number of lawmakers are now trying to stop wall Street Investors from buying homes. Congressional lawmakers have introduced bills that would force large owners of Single Family homes to sell houses to family buyers. Lawmakers in california are among those proposing similar laws. They say investors that scooped up hundreds of thousands of homes to rent are driving up home prices. Lawmakers also argue that its made it harder for first time home buyers to compete with wall streets all cash offer. So we turn to you and ask, do you think lawmakers should crack down on wall Street Investors purchasing large numbers of Single Family homes . The vast majority 87 of you says, yes, prices are crazy. 13 say, hey, look, if you have it, buy it. Scan the qr code at the top right of the screen, or head to ketv. Com vote to let us know. Well see if these numbers change much, but let me tell you. I mean, i dont dabble in real estate at all, but the first time i heard about all cash offers, i was like, wait, what . Im scraping together a down payment, and this other person just has, you know, whatever the 1. 4 or whatever it is, i was floored right there. Now it doesnt even shock me. It doesnt shock you anymore. No, it doesnt becomes dated. Well, its coming from the investors. Its tough. I dont know how you regulate Something Like that or put a law in a place like that. I really couldnt say thats capitalism, but its capitalism, right . So, i mean, you could just build more houses. So that way the prices would go down, which is what the governor is trying to do now with cities all across. But thats going to take years. Yeah, i dont know. Its interesting though. Its interesting thought. Interesting move. So well see what happens from here. All right sal is not with us right now because he is embarking on an extraordinary culinary journey from the high seas. Right, colin . Americas partnered up with the iron chef morimoto. Weve had him on the line a number of times in the city for a sneak peek, and im hoping a taste maybe. You know, ive never been on a cruise ship, but here i am on the Holland America eurodam and you know, you know what put me over the edge here is chef morimoto, who is opening a restaurant. Here he is, pop on in, chef. There he is. Good morning. Good morning, San Francisco. Yes, yes, i am chef morimoto here at the Northern California eurotherm. Hold on. America. Thats right. So welcome. Well thank you chef. And were about let it be known were both wearing air force ones because were both stylish like that. The chef is going to a little later on. Were going to go to the restaurant. Thats on board now. The chef told me that this particular cruise line is known for its food. You know, you get onto a cruise ship, sometimes you see pools for the kids and stuff. This is more of a food lovers journey. So we have morimoto by the sea. Its the first restaurant on a ship, and you are the fresh fish ambassador. Yes, i am a fresh fish ambassador of the Global Fresh Fish Program on Holland America. I am the fish guy and the fish chef. There you go. So a little later on, were going to find out, first of all, what it takes to put a restaurant on a cruise ship like this. What challenges there might be about getting a meal here, and also how lucky the passengers are who got on board this ship and are going to get a chance to taste chefs food. Thats coming up a little later on in the program. Garcia and andre try my best. Sal thank you. Well start our newscast here in new york city where new this morning, a judge warned former President Donald Trump to stop violating a gag order in his criminal trial or said hell be arrested and put in jail. The judge overseeing mr. Trumps socalled hush money trial said the former president has violated the gag order nine times and ordered him to pay 1,000 for each violation. He says the former president is not allowed to talk about witnesses, jurors or others connected to the trial. Former president continues to say he is only exercising his right to free speech. New this morning, more than 20 people are arrested during the propalestine protest at cal poly humboldt. It happened overnight as University Officials say it worked to restore order. Ktvu james torres is following those updates, including action captured live on video. James andre, good morning. The school has been shut down since last week. Thats after protesters took over a School Building on campus at about 3 a. M. Today. University police put out a shelter in place alert for people who live on campus. They say due to continuing criminal activity, we learned at around 230 this morning, a coalition of Police Officers made up of personnel from all over the state, including San Francisco, went in to clear and secure the buildings occupied by those protesters. They arrested about 25 people. The video here, posted on instagram by the humboldt lumberjack thats an independent student run newspaper for the university, says students will face code of conduct violations. Faculty could face disciplinary action. We even saw a local tv journalist who studied at San Francisco state. She was reporting live on her stations Facebook Page when officers detained her at the scene. Me yes, im over here. Come this way. We need you out of the way. Okay. Put your phone in your pocket. Put your phone in your pocket, then put your hands behind your back. Wait. Im pressed. You had an opportunity to leave. You were told multiple times to leave. Otherwise youre going to be arrested. But i cant. My job. My job has been here all night. Well, find a different job. Find a different job. If its a statement from University President Tom Jackson Jr read in part. This is a difficult day. It breaks my heart to see it. And truly, nobody wanted to see things come to this. Weve all watched this with great concern and always with a sincere hope that it would be resolved peacefully. Unfortunately, serious criminal activity that crossed the line well beyond the level of a protest had put the campus at an ongoing risk. The University Campus will stay on its hard closure until may 10th. However, they say for anyone who lives on campus that shelter in place order has now been lifted. Police say those arrested will face charges ranging from Unlawful Assembly to vandalism and even assault on Police Officers. Live in the newsroom. Im james torres, ktvu, fox two news james. Thank you. Meantime, across the country, demonstrators and encampments on College Campuses against the war in gaza are growing. And that includes here in the bay area at sonoma state university. An encampment was set up on friday and grew over the weekend at stanford university. A protest also continues to grow, despite School Administrators telling students theyre violating university policies. At cal, more people have joined the encampment just outside of sproul hall, and the newest encampment is at San Francisco state, where a protest started just yesterday. The protesters at San Francisco state, like the protesters at other universities , want an end to the violence in gaza and for the university to divest or sell their holdings from companies that do business with israels military. Free palestine palestine shortly after a rally yesterday at the university, protesters set up tents. As a member of the csu system, we think that its important to protest there, involved event and, you know, support of the genocide. Some jewish students on campus say some of the language being used by protesters and on their signs make them uncomfortable, basically saying, i cant be aecause i believe that the state of israel has a right to exist. You know, it creates an unwelcoming environment. But more so, its just its shutting down even a central conversation. In a statement responding to the protests, the University Says in part, quote, Sf State Foundation investment policy reflects its commitment to the values of the university, prioritizing social and racial justice, environmental sustainability and climate action. An amateur beekeeper in oakland is frustrated and angry after becoming the victim of a bizarre crime. This past weekend, thieves stole a colony of 10,000 honeybees from outside her home on manila drive in north oakland. The colony included a queen bee. Beekeeper sue donahue says she rushed outside her door saturday morning when she heard someone disrupting her hives. I heard somebody say, hey, free bees and then a moment later i heard a car door shut. Donahue says shes certain the thieves dont know the first thing about bees. Shes also sure that her bees will die soon if theyre not properly cared for. So far, police have no suspects in the case. Its the last day of april. Lets check in with rosemary oroczo for a look at the forecast for today and for the first day, hopefully of the month next month. Yes good morning guys. We are looking at a cool weather this morning. Although we are rebounding. What a chilly start. We had. In fact, ill show you some of those numbers here after we take a look at that two beautiful cruise liner there where sal is out this morning. We do have partly cloudy skies and expecting mostly sunny for the afternoon, but take a look at just how cold we were this morning. If you woke up and thought, wow, there is a chill in the air, you were not wrong. Areas like so cool. Were coming in at 41 degrees, as well as Scotts Valley and the santa cruz area. Sonoma in the north bay, 39 degrees this morning. Temperatures have rebounded 53 right now in San Francisco, 54 in walnut creek, 57 san jose. But we are still a little bit cooler compared to yesterday morning, down by a few degrees. We continue with this pattern for a few more days. We have systems that are rolling through the Pacific Northwest and then kind of dip on the backside of california for us, we remain high and dry, but we do remain with the northwesterly flow in place. And as those systems move through, the Pressure Gradient tightens a little bit. And thats what kicks up the wind into the afternoon. This is expected to last for the next few days. By friday though, a bigger pattern change and ill show you what i mean momentarily. Lets take a look at the winds right now where sfo is reporting onshore at 12mph, Half Moon Bay is gusting to 22. Do expect the winds to pick up once again into the afternoon. And the futurecast model will show you the bigger change that is coming our way. As i put this into motion, youre going to notice those storms that continue to move through washington, oregon and then into the intermountain west. But by friday, this system is working its way closer to california. And saturday morning , this has been fairly consistent in bringing us some rain on saturday, and it looks like it may last most of the day, leaving us with scattered showers on sunday. Rainfall amounts. It looks pretty bullish at this point, anywhere from half inch to an inch and a half. And snow in the sierra, so we still have a few days to fine tune this. But you know, we are now on day two, even almost day three, where it looks like that possibility of wet weather is going to actually happen. Afternoon highs for today, 64 in San Francisco, mid 70s in concord. And your extended forecast here will show you that temperatures continue a gradual warm up into about thursday when they peak upper 70s to about 80 degrees inland, 70s around the bay, upper 60s for our coastline. So not much change really going on over the next few days. Just slightly warmer. And then we begin to cool down. And when that wet weather is expected on the weekend, take a look at the temperatures low to mid to perhaps upper 60s expected saturday and sunday. Back to you rosemary. Thank you. Fire crews on the scene of a massive overnight blaze in the east bay. Next here on the nine. Were live from the scene in concord as crews remain on site looking for lingering hotspots.

But a growing number of schools are turning to Service Clubs such as the kiwanis club, Kiwanis Key Club for support. For more insight on how the Student Led Organization are making a difference, we welcome michelle study campbell to the nine. Shes the executive director of kiwanis youth programs. Michelle, thank you for joining us. Thanks for having me. Happy to be here. All right. So, michelle, how is loneliness impacting the wellbeing of teenagers these days . Lately, especially since the pandemic . Yeah, absolutely. And even before the pandemic, you know, the, Emergency Rooms and hospitals across the country and beyond were reporting record high levels of emergency room visits for suicide attempts, selfharm, suicidal ideation. And so these feelings of loneliness, depression, anxiety, we are really more prevalent in students today, today than we have seen in many, many years. And this is not just a us problem. This is a global issue that were seeing in all of the countries that we have a presence, and we believe that Community Service can be a solution. Yeah, many parents and many even teachers are looking for ways to help students along the way when they see them going through this. So what is key club and what makes it different from maybe other opportunities for teens, like maybe sports in school . Yeah, absolutely. So Key Club International is the worlds oldest and largest student led service and leadership program. And what makes us different besides, beyond the fact that were almost 100 years old, is that our programs are all student led, meaning that from the local level, after School Programing and at local Community Centers through regional programing. So like we have a california region and even at the international level, our students are in the drivers seat. Theyre looking at strategic plans, determining the Strategic Direction of the organization who are international and local partners. Are we really, make sure that our Student Voice is first and foremost. So. So what happens in key club in the when these students meet . What goes on in these meetings. Yeah. So we have about, 30,000 Key Club Members in the state of california who on a regular basis have local meetings at their School Chapters or their community chapter. And every year they determine what their focus is, right . So is it homelessness . Is it environmental causes . Animal welfare or Food Insecurity or any other number of local cause thats important to their community that they want to pitch in and help eradicate or lessen the impact of that, community need. And so they really take a look at, you know, who are the right community partners, what can their impact be . You know, if its a literacy project, they collect books from their entire school and community, work with a partner to distribute the books, bring in literacy resources, and so really everything from ideation and research to planning a project, implementing a project, and then the follow up afterwards, its really remarkable. So it varies from school to school and what project theyre going to take up for that semester. Yes. We talked a little bit earlier about the helping, the selfesteem, the confidence of teenagers. Theyre going through a tough time, particularly right now. And even before, as you mentioned, the pandemic. But how do you meld those two together . How does one help the other . Yeah, absolutely. And so, back in the 1980s, there was a research, that began looking at helpers high and the impact of volunteering, on the individual, not just the impact that youre having volunteering for another organization or for people, but what impact that has on you. And when you volunteer for the brain releases all these great chemicals and endorphins that really give you this great feel good sensation. And thats called a helpers high. And when you have those feel good sensations, when youre working with others in a bigger, impact on your community
