tomorrow across the bay area and the country. in san jose, members of a janitors union got together to make banners and picket signs for monday's march. organizers say more people are taking part because they don't like what the trump administration stands for. in particular, the union wants to send the president a message about immigrants. >> our immigrant communities need to be respected and valued. as a wealth and resources here for our community. and that's what we want to let the new administration know. >> mayday is also known as international workers day. >> in just 100 days, we have taken historic steps to secure our borders. >> president trump firing up supporters in harrisburg, pennsylvania, at a rally marking his 100th day in office. it is the first time in 36 years that a sitting president did not attend the white house correspondents dinner. he had a lot to say, though, about the journalists who did.

the president launched a scathing attack against the media during the campaign style rally. he also highlighted his accomplishments during his first 100 days in office. the president says he's rebuilding the military and lifting environmental restrictions to provide more jobs. he also pointed out what he's done so far to improve national security. >> in just 100 days, we have taken historic steps to secure our border. impose needed immigration control, like you have never seen before. >> despite the president sharing his long list accomplishments, some political experts say the president has just one major accomplishment so far. >> it's beyond the level of exaggeration. in fact, his first 100 days won't be much remembered except for one thing. the new supreme court justice. neil gorsuch. that's it. >> one move that has won the president praise from both parties, standing up to the assad regime in syria.

hand of an immigrant. that's how it always goes down. >> daily show correspondent hassan minaj headlined the entertainment part of the event, getting a lot of laughs. for continued coverage of the president's first 100 days, head to our nbc bay area facebook page and twitter feed. we're asking how you would rate the president's first 100 days. >> protesters across the country took to the streets to criticize the president's environmental policies. this is the people's climate march in oakland yesterday. it was one of hundreds of marches nationwide. organizers say they don't like the president's recent move to open up protective waterways for oil exploration. >> i feel like the science is pretty clear. and we have an entire planet that's in jeopardy. and we're going to be seeing a lot of the effects of that actually impacting people all over the world. >> speakers said the administration is ignoring the health of the planet in the name of profit.

alameda police are investigating what they call a suspicious death after neighbors found a dead man floating in the water behind their condos. this is a picture taken by a neighbor showing firefighters pulling the man's body from the lagoon. katie henry says she and other neighbors discovered the man around 8:30 yesterday morning. she says it is a jarring sight they will never forget. >> it's just really odd to find a dead body, knrut think as a community, we all want to know more. >> it is still unclear how the young man died. alameda police say his identity has not been confirmed but they believe they know who he is. new details now in that officer-involved shooting investigation in san mateo that shut down highway 101 for seven hours. we first brought you the story as breaking news friday night. we have now learned that when chp officers arrived at the scene on northbound 101, they spotted the suspect trying to carjack another driver. police say the suspect was holding a gun and pointing it at

here's another live look outside from our camera atop communications hill. finding different angles for you to show you san jose this morning. clear skies. lots of sun, and some warm temperatures heading our way. for hundreds of years, people have risked their necks to catch a seafood delicacy, red abalone. but changing ocean conditions have left the population dwindling. joe rosato jr. shows us what a group of bay area scientists is now doing to save them. >> reporter: it's an annual rite of the sea. abalone divers along the northern coast of california risking life and limb to haul in these strange marine snails. known as red abalone. >> people have been free diving for these animals forever.

>> the future of this seafood delicacy is as turbulent as the ocean, that's because the ocean is changing. >> a lot of the scientist models show things will change very quickly in northern california. >> scientists say ocean acid levels are slowly rising because of pollution. and in some places, they have already impacted red abalone population. >> they're smaller, they're developing more slowly. >> pretty cool. >> super tiny. >> cows of the sea. >> inside the marine laboratory in bodega bay, researchers are studying how rising ocean acidity is impacting the state's abalone. >> we have added 300 baby abalone. >> the tiny specks are baby abalone. >> like little bread crumbs. >> the researcher said the group is experimenting raising abalone in present day ocean conditions. as well as the kind of conditions predicted in the next 40 years. >> kind of a time machine where we're going into the future.

>> our medium sized class. >> they can move pretty quickly. >> some marine areas with higher acid levels have seen abalone populations wiped out. at the same time, some abalone in the same conditions have done just fine. >> some genetic diversity out there some families don't do as badly as others. >> this is all the new growth. >> because of declining numbers, calf wildlife managers shortened this year's recreational abalone diving season by two months. >> it's of interest to preserve the populations that are still doing well. >> the scientists say one possibility is raising populations of abalone that have shown a resistance to rising acidity. they may not be the prettiest critters on ocean, but on a restaurant table, they're some of the most expensive. not only mysterious but -- >> tasty as well. >> joe rosato jr., nbc bay area news. >> so interesting. we'll get a check of the weather now with kari hall. looking ahead at the weekend's

forecast, and of course, the week ahead, and if you are out there diving or anywhere near the ocean, today is a good day. >> it will be a beautiful day. it's going to be so comfortable, and we will take a look at all that's going on around the bay area. here's a look in fremont. it's nice and also not busy on the roadways. if you're heading out early, you'll have a nice and clear start. we're looking at temperatures in the low 50s. definitely some long sleeves to start out the. it's 53 degrees in san jose and oak. it's 52 right now in san francisco, and 54 in palo alto. while we do have some 40s in some of the valleys. for the south bay, we're looking at a high today of 81 degrees in morgan hill and east san jose, and cupertino as well will be at 82 degrees today in walnut creek and hayward up to 78 degrees. and for the peninsula, expect those high temperatures to reach into the low 70s. in san mateo, 73. also 73 in the mission district.

and in the north bay, a little warm today. santa rosa and sonoma will be up to 82 degrees. so if you're about to head out the door, do not forget the allergy medication. this is what vicky and i were talking about earlier. a lot of pollen in the air. a high amount of tree and grass poll pollen. maybe a good time to wash the car because there's no rain in the forecast. looking live at san francisco at&t park, we're getting ready for an early afternoon giants game at at&t park. it will be up to about 70 degrees in time for first pitch. and then seeing those temperatures in the low to mid 70s. make sure you have the sun block and drink lots of water out there. the sun will be beaming down. we also have butter and egg days happening in petaluma. the antique fair today from 8:00 to 4:00, and our temperatures will be already in the low 60s by 10:00, into the mid 70s by 1:00 in the afternoon. and it does continue to warm up from there through early

afternoon. up to 78 degrees today in petaluma. and in san jose, the san jose dance company having a dance fair in santana row. it will be in the low 60s to start, but we'll also see there the temperatures make it into the mid 70s for the afternoon and low 80s. so also drink lots of water there. heading for some cooler temperatures. go to half moon bay. we have the pacific coast dream machine show. and we also talked about golfing at half moon bay. also the beaches will be busy. so allow a lot of extra time to get there. but it looks like a great event, and our temperatures will stay in the low 60s throughout the day. if you're planning to head to standa cruz, going over the summit, our temperatures will be in the low 70s. then eventually making it into the mid 80s. it will be a very nice day to head to the beach. and if you are getting ready to head back to work, we will see those temperatures in the mid 70s. for tomorrow, for san francisco, making it into the upper 70s. so we'll get quite warm through

the middle of the week. but then we'll head back to some cooler temperatures after that. by the end of next week, we'll be closer to average, and even going cooler than average. but look at how these temperatures change for the inland areas. the warmest day of the week will be wednesday. it will feel hot. close to 90 degrees in some spots. it will be nice and cool by next weekend. we are looking forward to some cooler temperatures, vicky, in the seven-day forecast. >> kari, thanks so much. >> you're watching today in the bay. coming up, teaching a class a half a world away. how one bay area woman is giving back to the school that helped her. it's ay that will make you bay area proud. richmond, a berkeley graduate is

clooszs in secret decades ago, in living rooms, kitchens, and basementsand the currently. at times, homes were raided professors jailed. but the school continued. >> teaching, you learn that any day you can go to prison. so they put their lives on the line to teach students. i always see it as a big sacrifice, and they did that for me. >> she graded from bihe in 2010, and eventually earned her masters in architecture from uc berkeley. now, a working architect, she dedicates early mornings and late evenings teaching bihe students in iran over the internet. it's risky for her students to even take her class, which is why we won't show their faces. and she, for her part, knows what she is doing likely means

she can not safely return to her home country to visit her family. >> it's very hard, very difficult, but then, you know, it was my choice. and i made that choice. >> she hopes by shedding light on a school that operates in the shadows, pressure will build on the government of iran to change its position. until then, though, she will keep teaching long distance, hoping for big change. her husband, who also attended bihe, joins her in teaching classes remotely. garvin thomas, nbc bay area news. straight ahead on today in the bay, bay area based netflix refuses to comply with a hacker after a security breach leads to the leak of a popular show. who's now involved in finding the suspects. plus -- >> nobody helped me at all. you know, even police, even my

to send the president a message about immigrants. >> our immigrant communities need to be respected and valued. as a wealth and resources here for our community. and that's what we want to let the new administration know. >> mayday is also known as international workers day. in just 100 days, we have taken historic steps to secure our borders. >> president trump firing up his supporters as he sets his sights beyond his first 100 days in office. he was a no-show at last night's white house correspondents dinner, but he didn't minls words when it came to the media. he launched a skathding attack against journalists during a rally in front of his supporters in harrisburg, pennsylvania. he also highlighted his accomplishments during his first 100 days. the president says he's rebuilding the military and lifting environmental restrictions to provide more jobs. he also pointed out what he's

done so far to improve national security. >> in just 100 days, we have taken historic steps to secure our border, to impose needed immigration control like you have never seen before. >> despite the president sharing his long list of accomplishments, some political experts say he has just one major accomplishment so far. >> beyond the level of exaggeration. in fact, his first 100 days won't be much remembered except for one thing, the new supreme court justice, neil gorsuch. that's it. >> one move that has won the president praise from both republicans and democrats, standing up to the assad regime in syria. >> meanwhile, the white house correspondents dinner began with a video reflecting on the importance of the first amendment. it also profiled tense relationships between past presidents and the press. in his opening address, the president of the white house correspondents association, jeff mason, called press access under president trump good and

constructive. he also had a clear message. >> we cannot ignore the rhetoric that has been employed by the president. about who we are and what we do. freedom of the press is a building block of our democracy. undermining that by seeking to delegitimize journalists is dangerous to a healthy republic. >> you see folks standing there. mason's comments earned him that standing ovation. later, the tone turned a lot lighter. hassan minaj, who is muslim, headlined the entertainment part of the show. for continuing coverage of the president's first 100 days, head to our facebook page and twitter feed. imagine being secretly recorded by someone you work with. a bay area woman turned to our investigative unit after discovering a hidden camera in the bathroom. as we found a growing number of women are being victimized by

these video voyeurs, sometimes with little recourse. this woman never imagined she would see video of herself recorded in the restroom at her job. she's worked at elma electronics for the past 13 years. >> how many times do you think you may have been captured on video changing clothes or using that restroom? >> i have no idea. it could so many times already. >> until this day when a colleague dissed a tiny camera stuck to the towel dispenser. what did the camera look like? >> like a. it looked like a hook. really small. >> the video showed both women using the bathroom. they called human sources at elma who called fremont police. according to the police report, the officer took the camera and memory card as evidence, then she waited more than two years for police to find the peeper. only to discover they weren't even looking. >> i feel really, really

disappointed. >> we learned the officer closed the case just hours after it was reported. the company's hr director told them about 100 people had access to the bathroom, but she says only 15 work on her floor. >> did the police talk to any of the other workers on your floor? >> no. >> why didn't the officer question any of the 15 or so people who work on the floor with access to that bathroom? >> we have to make sure we don't make this into some sort of witch hunt. >> ricardo cortez is a sergeant at fremont pd. >> say we had a burglary, we ideally, technically by your explanation, we would talk to every single neighbor in that neighborhood in order to just figure out what occurred. >> you might talk the next door neighbor, the across the street neighbor. >> absolutely. >> it seems like the officer dropped the ball and didn't bother asking anyone questions that may have helped lead to a suspect. >> he did pursue who handled it. he did view it.

when the human resources personnel told them there were over 100 people, he had to make a decision, what is it he can do to be productive. >> police don't do hr's job, and hr shouldn't do the police chief. >> the chief district attorney in san mateo county, last year, her office filed 11 cases involving peeping toms, up from 1 in 15. she said prosecutors depend on police to do a thorough investigation so they can bring charges. >> it's amazing what people know if they're asked the right questions. a lot of people may not even know they have information until they're questioned by a trained questioner. >> and you can't find a suspect if you don't ask questions. >> exactly. the message that the victim gets from that is that i'm violated and nobody cares. >> we found suspects do face justice when police catch them. santa clara, alameda, and san francisco county prosecuted 29 peeping tom cases last year.

cameras in restaurant trash cans, store dressing rooms. even people recording room mates in a shared bathroom. elma electronics declined to answer our questions on camera. they they were unable to determine who placed the camera. the company said it advised employees and continues to closely monitor all rests for any suspicious activity. >> i didn't tell anyone. they don't tell, you know, employees. >> meanwhile, the quality inspector at elma, says she feels little of that at her workplace these days. not knowing if the perp placed the camera still works there or still has video of her. >> nobody helped me at all. you know. even police, even my company. no one helped me. you know, i want to let everybody know to be careful. >> sergeant cortez said he will

speak with officers at the fremont police department about how the case was handled and to review best practices with officers. investigators say be aware of your surrounds. if you see a camera or phone reporting you, don't touch it or you'll taint the evidence. instead, call police. to another investigation. a prized piece of waterfront land in san francisco slated for new development, but progress at the hunter's point naval shipyard has been slowed due to problems with the cleanup. liz wagner joins us with a preview of her investigation into new allegations of contamination. >> our series of investigations have exposed questions about the clean up of the one time super fun site. a former worker is speaking up again, raising more concerns about radiation. this time, he's pointing to contamination he says he detected on a section of the shipyard where he didn't expect to find any. it's an area that now belongs to the city of san francisco, next to land that's currently being

developed. he told the navy about his concerns nearly a year ago. >> do you think the navy should be moving with some sense of urgency here because this specific parcel of land is so close to where new construction is already happening? >> because we have looked at this particular area very closely and we don't believe that there's any current risk, we have time to do a thorough investigation. >> tonight, we sit down with a navy official who is overseeing the cleanup of hunter's point. we investigate why the government isn't concerned even though the whistle blower said he found radiation well above the navy's own cleanup standards. you can catch our full investigation tonight at 11:00. >> if you have a tip for your investigative unit, call 888-996-tips or send us an e-mail. a hit netflix show is now the center of a security breach investigation. and now the fbi is on the case. a hacker leaked the upcoming season of "orange is the new

oakland -- the golden state warriors are playing the waiting game let's give you a live look at oracle arena. the golden state warriors are playing the waiting game in their quest for an nba championship. tuesday night, the warriors will take on the jazz or the clippers in second round of the playoffs. they have a deciding game seven. whichever team the warriors play, bay areas can't get enough of the ws. a new team store opened this weekend located in the broadway

shopping center on south main street. the warriors dance team was there to kick off the brand's opening. >> the giants were looking to win two straight games for the first time in nearly three weeks. they hosted the padres. >> in the bottom of the third, they had a 2-1 lead. padres fired back with an eight-run sixth to take the lead back for good. that leads to the padres winning 12-4. >> today in the bay is back in two minutes. we put reform into focus. y gerston joins us live from the studio to discuss the widening gap between what retirees collect and what agencies have raised. stay with us. making public policy is complex,

confusing, and can be fraught with unintended consequees making public policy can be complex, confusing, and it can be fraught unintended consequences. public pension reform in

california has been all of those things. no matter how much state leaders have tried to manage pension programs, each year, the gap grows between what retirees collect and what agencies have raised. nbc bay area plitcon analyst lara gerston joins us to explain the challenges here. before you give us an idea of where things stand now, what has the public pension program looked like most recently. >> a little history wouldn't hurt. it's an issue that is fairly complex. there are several public policies pension agencies, sorry. >> say that ten times fast. >> look, the largest by far is cal, which was created in 1932, set up as a retirement cystment. very visionary at the time. it worked then and now with retirement revenues coming from three sources. employee contributions, employer contributions, and the state should there be deficiencies wean the revenues raised and the pension payments.

that's how it started out. >> it was set up, a great visionary plan. how is it working, and where are we seeing the gaps in fronting? >> yeah, okay, so it is not paying for itself these days, at least not entirely. that's the problem. most of the problem has occurred in the past two decades. fairly recently. a couple data points here. in 1998, the state of california contributed $776 million to close that pension gap. but for the 2016-2017 fiscal year, this fiscal year, the state is contributing $5.4 billion to the gap. that's about eight times as much as 20 years ago. thee funds come right out of the state budget, which means less money for other obligations. by the way, there are other public pension programs as well. their problems are much more pronounced than those at calperks which is considered

really the gold standard, ironically, of retirement programs. >> you talk about the three pegs on which it was founded, the three contribution sources. where are we falling short? how did we get to this kind of gap? >> things are complicated. really several factors come into play. three really stand out. first, overtime, unions and the state agree to more lucrative benefit packages in the form of higher retirement payments along with lower requirements for work years. now, that's what critics tend to pounce on. they focus on that. but really, there are some other factors just as important. second, calperks has been given more authority over the years. by legislature and voters who invest retirement funds in stocks and other questionable income generating sources with very uneven results. for example, in 2009, the worst year of the great recession, they lost 24% of its value. wiping out $67 billion.

and third, until recently, they estimated their retirement investments would generate annual returns of 8.25%. wouldn't we like that on an investment, 8.25%? most private pension economists expert returns of about 4.5%. as a result, they estimate its long-term debt at $80 billion, assuming the revised rate of 7.5%. but if the annual return is more conservative, as most people say, 4.5%, they could have a long-term viability of watch yourself now, $290 billion with annual deficits made up by the legislature every year under the current rules. >> how did they have such a rosy outcome? who is in charge of figuring out what they're investing in? you said $290 billion. that seems almost insurmountable really. what's next and how does the state help them get back in line? are we looking for cuts for

people in pensions? >> these are the questions we should be asking, no question about it. they could be made, adjustments, by hiking employee contributions. all these are controversial. hiking the employee contribution. hiking employer contributions, okay. perhaps downsizing pension benefits, or a combination of the three. now, in 2012, the legislature did take a small step toward benefit changes by increasing retirement benefit requirements, making it more. for new employees, and raising retirement ages. also state policymakers should not use polly makers as a piggy bank. that's what happened in 1991 when then governor pete will and the legislature took $1.6 billion from calperks to balance the state budget. that was just wrong. that denied the investment fund. finally, the courts are getting close. they're getting close to allowing public pension managers to reduce current employee

benefits. that's very dicy. this has been upheld twice in appellate court, so it will probably be decided in the future by the u.s. supreme court. look, let's get it down. come down to earth. here's the problem. the bottom line. public employees are valuable. they're critical. they should be compensated accordingly. but somewhere along the line, somewhere, policymakers and the public, the voters, have created a formula that's just not sustainable. for that reason alone, it's just maybe time to go back to the drawing board. >> really complicated but necessary. okay, larry, thank you so much. we'll be right back.

you'll be off for the next couple days and are planning to head to the sierra. a live look at heavenly and the temperatures for the next few days. reaching into the mid 60s there. and looking at the seven-day forecast, for san francisco, expect the high temperatures to reach into the mid 70s for the next few days, the warm temperatures peaking on wednesday. then getting a little cooler. for the inland areas, expect it to be in the 80s for the next few days. air conditioner on full blast on wednesday. a look at the high, 87 degrees. and then it will be nice and cool as we into next weekend. nothing but dry weather in the forecast. it won't be as warm as what we're seeing this weekend. so major changes on the way as we're well above average. we don't want to just go right to summer, right? >> i do. i kind of do. i'm tired of the pollen. >> yeah, but you know, i also want the cool weather too. so we'll see that coming back next weekend. >> thank you. and as you said, a good weekend maybe to get the car washed. no rain in the forecast for now.

this sunday, president trump promised to change washington, but is it possible washington is changing him? >> this is more work than in my previous life. i thought it would be easier. >> the president fights to beat a 100-day deadline he calls ridiculous with an outline on taxes. >> we are going to cut taxes and simplify the tax code. >> that faces stiff opposition. another attempt to repeal and replace obamacare. >> we think it is a really good step in the right direction. >> that is still short. and a promise to get rid of nafta. that turns into a decision to negotiate instead. last night the president took a victory lap in a campaign-style stop in pennsylvania. >> we are keeping one
