5A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • MONDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2017 WORLD IN BRIEF Associated Press Trump stands with Japan, denounces N. Korean aggression Photos by Colin Murphey/The Daily Astorian A student heads to class last week at Astor Elementary School in Astoria. Security: ‘I’d rather argue safety’ Continued from Page 1A Visitors are screened by office staff, who can remotely open the door after checking IDs. The doors are locked to the outside and do not prevent people inside from opening them in case of an emergency. No system was installed at Astoria High School because of the greater num- ber of entrances around cam- pus, Hoppes wrote, but the district will continue to look at other security measures for the campus. Billy Eddy, the school dis- trict’s director of transporta- tion and maintenance, said adding security has to be bal- anced with what the dis- trict can afford. Additional beefed-up security mea- sures, such as more cam- eras and secured vestibules at entrances, are under discus- sion with a new round of vot- er-approved bonds in the off- ing, Eddy said. Locking doors and buzz- ing in visitors has become more common around the U.S. in the wake of school shoot- ings. Astoria found a contrac- tor to install its system through One of the components of the new security devices in- stalled at three local schools is an intercom system. Knappa. The rural school dis- trict east of Astoria has locked its doors and used key-carded entry and video monitoring for the past eight years. “It’s becoming extremely common,” Knappa Superin- tendent Paulette Johnson said. “I haven’t worked at a district that doesn’t have some sort of electronic entry.” Echoing the concerns of other administrators, Johnson said the most common occur- rence is parents and guardians coming in and not checking in at the office, leaving staff without an idea of who’s walk- ing around school. Tom Rogozinski, principal of Warrenton Grade School, said his district locks all but the front entrance during school and approaches uniden- tified visitors, but has not had serious issues with people not checking in at the office. Sheila Roley, superintendent of Seaside School District, said her district also locks all but front doors, uses security cameras and plans to enhance security at the new K-12 cam- pus being built. Shortly after a spate of school shootings from Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecti- cut to Reynolds High in Trout- dale, Astoria started bring- ing in security consultants and instituted a new standardized protocol for responding to cri- ses. Local schools installed new two-way portable radio systems, GPS trackers on buses, improved public-ad- dress systems, mechanisms to lock classroom doors from inside and curtains to hide stu- dents. They started locking all ancillary doors. The next logical step was to control access to the front entrance, the last remaining open access point, said Lewis and Clark Principal Brian Ploghoft. “At any given moment, I have almost 500 people in this building I’m trying to keep safe and keep an eye on,” Ploghoft said. “I don’t feel our community is unsafe. I feel this will be another measure to keep people safe. I’d rather argue safety, instead of argu- ing after something bad hap- pens and wondering why.” Marina: ‘It will just be so nice to have them go’ Continued from Page 1A The vessels will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis, and potential buyers are asked to provide removal plans. The city is requiring that all vessels be removed from the marina property within 24 hours of sale. Sweet wants to avoid a sit- uation that has come up in the past where a boat is sold mul- tiple times over the years, but THE DAILY ASTORIAN M ONDAY E VENING A (2) (-) (-) (6) (-) (8) (9) (10) (12) (13) (-) (20) (-) (29) (30) (31) (32) (34) (35) (36) (38) (39) (43) (44) (45) (46) (47) (48) (49) (50) (51) (52) (53) (54) (56) (57) (58) (61) (63) (64) (65) (162) L KATU KOMO KING KOIN KIRO KGW KRCW KOPB KPTV KPDX KCPQ TBS KZJO ESPN ESPN2 NICK DISN FAM FMC LIFE ROOT FS1 SPIKE COM HIST A&E TLC DISC NGEO TNT AMC USA FOOD HGTV FX CNN FNC CNBC BRAV TCM SYFY RFD (2) (4) (5) (-) (7) (-) (3) (10) (12) (-) (13) (20) (22) (29) (30) (31) (32) (34) (35) (36) (38) (39) (43) (44) (45) (46) (47) (48) (49) (50) (51) (52) (53) (54) (56) (57) (58) (61) (63) (64) (65) (162) 6 never gets repaired and never leaves the dock. “The American was prob- ably sold four times,” Sweet said, referencing a smaller rec- reational boat that’s up for sale again. The seized vessels range in price from $1,000 for the American to more than $7,000 for the 72-foot-long fishing vessel Master Chris. That last vessel is the one Sweet would really like to see go away, but she knows the smaller boats have a better chance at adop- tion. The person who built the Dixie Lee, a wooden fish- ing boat, for instance, has expressed some interest in get- ting it back for the family. “It will just be so nice to have them go,” Sweet said. People who buy the boats can bring them back to the marina again, but only if insur- ance and registration docu- ments are in place — now a standard requirement for all customers at the marina. One of the vessels the marina seized is not for sale. The aban- doned fishing boat, Western Skies, sank at its slip this sum- mer, triggering a cleanup of diesel fuel and months of has- sle for marina staff. Sweet and her staff will salvage what they can and scrap the rest. President Donald Trump ratcheted up the pressure on North Korea today, refusing to rule out eventual military action and declaring that the United States “will not stand” for Pyong- yang menacing America or its Asian allies. Trump, on the first stop of his lengthy Asia trip, denounced North Korea as “a threat to the civilized world,” and exhorted dictator Kim Jong Un to cease weapons testing like the mis- siles he has fired over Japanese territory in recent weeks. Though he stood in one of the Asia capitals in range of North Korea’s missiles, Trump did not modulate his fiery language, declaring that Pyongyang imperiled “international peace and stability.” “Some people say my rhetoric is very strong but look what has happened with very weak rhetoric in the last 25 years,” said Trump, who stood with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at a news conference. Abe, who has taken a more hawkish view on North Korea than some of his predecessors, agreed with Trump’s assess- ment that “all options are on the table” when dealing with Kim Jong Un and announced new sanctions against several dozen North Korea individuals. The two men also put a face on the threat posed by the North, earlier standing with anguished families of Japanese citizens snatched by Pyongyang’s agents. Trump and first lady Melania Trump stood with nearly two dozen relatives, some of whom held photos of the miss- ing. Seeking to increase pressure on North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, Trump pledged to work to return the missing to their families, saying “it’s a very, very sad number of stories that we’ve heard.” Amid booming economy, homelessness soars along US West Coast SEATTLE — In a park in the middle of a leafy, bohe- mian neighborhood where homes list for close to $1 million, a tractor’s massive claw scooped up the refuse of the home- less — mattresses, tents, wooden frames, a wicker chair, an outdoor propane heater. Workers in masks and steel-shanked boots plucked used needles and mounds of waste from the underbrush. Just a day before, this corner of Ravenna Park was an ille- gal home for the down and out, one of 400 such encampments that have popped up in Seattle’s parks, under bridges, on free- way medians and along busy sidewalks. Now, as police and social workers approached, some of the dispossessed scurried away, vanishing into a metropolis that is struggling to cope with an enormous wave of homelessness. That struggle is not Seattle’s alone. A homeless crisis of unprecedented proportions is rocking the West Coast, and its victims are being left behind by the very things that mark the region’s success: soaring housing costs, rock-bottom vacancy rates and a roaring economy that waits for no one. All along the coast, elected officials are scrambling for solutions. “I’ve got economically zero unemployment in my city, and I’ve got thousands of homeless people that actually are work- ing and just can’t afford housing,” said Seattle City Council- man Mike O’Brien. “There’s nowhere for these folks to move to. Every time we open up a new place, it fills up.” The rising numbers of homeless people have pushed abject poverty into the open like never before and have overwhelmed cities and nonprofits. The surge in people living on the streets has put public health at risk, led several cities to declare states of emergency and forced cities and counties to spend millions — in some cases billions — in a search for solutions. Saudi-led coalition warns Iran over Yemen missile launch SANAA, Yemen — The Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen closed off the land, sea and air ports to the Arab world’s poorest country early today after a rebel-fired ballistic missile targeted Riyadh, blaming the launch on Iran and warn- ing it could be “considered as an act of war.” The coalition’s statement ramps up tensions between the ultraconservative Sunni kingdom and its Shiite rival Iran, both of which have interests in Yemen’s yearslong conflict. The bloodshed continued Sunday as an Islamic State-claimed mil- itant attack in Aden killed at least 17 people. In a statement, the coalition accused Iran of supply- ing Yemen’s Houthi rebels and their allies with the missile launched Saturday toward the Saudi capital’s international airport.
