While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

The non-profit that runs Burning Man is appealing a new tax that could cost nearly $3 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ray Allen is general counsel for the \u003ca href=\"http://burningman.org/culture/history/brc-history/afterburn/2013-2/related/burning-man-project/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Burning Man Project\u003c/a>, which organizes the massive dessert gathering in the Black Rock Desert, along with a growing number of baby Burning Mans elsewhere in the world. Allen says Nevada tweaked its live entertainment tax last year, “but it didn’t seem to apply to us because it mostly had to do with live entertainment. And Burning Man is not a concert. It’s not an arena event. It’s not a casino show. At Burning Man, people come for the experience that they bring themselves.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”gI3AFBFMPiFMSUuU7PaXNyZJHTvRI05t”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burning Man, Allen says, creates a venue where live entertainment happens, like porta-potties, roads, and medical services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously, some of our members do things that others may find entertaining,” Allen said. “However, the statute says that the organization that’s going to be taxed has to provide those activities. Our organization, we provide infrastructure.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So Burning Man \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2015/12/14/burning-man-challenging-nevadas-live-entertainment-tax/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">appealed\u003c/a>, estimating the tax change could cost $2.9 million. That could force the Project to raise ticket prices by as much as $35 above last year’s main sale price of roughly $390. That’s a steep entry fee for a week in a no-commerce zone where participants give away everything for free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/240370511″ params=”color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false” width=”100%” height=’166′ iframe=”true” /]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eric Evans of Mountain View has gone to Black Rock City for the last three years as part of Camp Hardly, one of about 50 camps from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.southbayburners.org/camps.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">South Bay\u003c/a>. Camp Hardly stages a Western-themed whiskey saloon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Evans says the tax is objectionable. “It is a relatively small cost. However, one of the big things about tax is, it should be applied fairly.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A civil engineer off the Playa, Evans feels differently about the $40 vehicle pass introduced in 2014.

Allen says Nevada tweaked its live entertainment tax last year, “but it didn’t seem to apply to us because it mostly had to do with live entertainment. And Burning Man is not a concert. It’s not an arena event. It’s not a casino show. At Burning Man, people come for the experience that they bring themselves.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burning Man, Allen says, creates a venue where live entertainment happens, like porta-potties, roads, and medical services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously, some of our members do things that others may find entertaining,” Allen said. “However, the statute says that the organization that’s going to be taxed has to provide those activities.

He and his fellow teachers at Salinas’ Sherwood Elementary School go to extraordinary lengths to give their students a support network: They hold clothing drives, deliver Christmas gifts and conduct seminars for parents on how to help their kids with homework. When José’s family moves outside the school’s area, Ramos volunteers to pick the child up every morning, so he can finish up the year in the same school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11201307\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/12/east_of_salinas-press-02_custom-148586b3bd90dadaa06137147c3fc584028a5c82-1180x786.jpg\" alt=\"José Anzaldo starts fifth grade at a new school.

The family struggles to maintain these two households — in Salinas and in Yuma — on a single income; José sometimes goes to bed hungry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He and his fellow teachers at Salinas’ Sherwood Elementary School go to extraordinary lengths to give their students a support network: They hold clothing drives, deliver Christmas gifts and conduct seminars for parents on how to help their kids with homework.
