As \u003cem>The California Report's\u003c/em> Central Valley Bureau Chief based in Fresno for nearly a dozen years, Sasha brought the lives and concerns of rural Californians to listeners around the state. Her reporting helped expose the hidden price immigrant women janitors and farmworkers may pay to keep their jobs: sexual assault at work. It inspired two new California laws to protect them from sexual harassment. She was a key member of the reporting team for the Frontline film \u003cem>Rape on the Night Shift, \u003c/em>which was nominated for two national Emmys. Sasha has also won a national Edward R. Murrow and a national PRNDI award for investigative reporting, as well as multiple prizes from the Society for Professional Journalists. Sasha is a proud alum of the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism and Brown University and a member of the South Asian Journalists Association.",

Jurors in the trial heard a recording of the interview Tuesday in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors called to the stand one of the ATF agents, Whitney Hameth, as well as Alameda County District Attorney’s Office investigator Cinda Stoddard, who described the contents of Harris’ cellphone, in an effort to show the defendant’s outsized role in managing the warehouse that’s been called a “death trap.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The evidence and testimony, delivered on what was expected to be prosecutors’ second to last day of calling witnesses, seemed to counter the defense’s depiction of Harris as a benignly helpful figure at an artist collective run without hierarchy or bosses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defense has also said the fire resulted not from the actions or neglect of Harris and codefendant Derick Almena, who held the lease, but from arson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors allege Harris and Almena built and operated the warehouse with a willful disregard for safety, making them criminally responsible for the deaths, while the defense has attempted to shift blame to the property owner and government officials who visited Ghost Ship without flagging unsafe conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I helped facilitate the vision of the space,” Harris told the ATF agent. “If there was interpersonal conflict, sometimes I’d have to be the mediator.” Laughing, Harris was forthcoming and self-deprecating about his duties. “I’m like the executive director, but I have my hand this far down the toilet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked if his responsibilities included maintenance, Harris responded, “Yes.” The power, delivered from an adjacent unit via extension cords, was a persistent problem.

He recounted locking eyes with his friends Alex Ghassan and Hanna Ruax before a “pounding, black cloud of smoke” rushed up from the stairwell and hit him in the face.

It was the early 1950s, and roller rink skating was in full bloom in a postwar country looking for light recreation. To quote a period promo film made by the Roller Skating Foundation of America, “This is roller-skating, America’s favorite fun sport. A wholesome, year-round recreation. One of our truly great, All-American participant sports.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s right around the time the Moonlight Rollerway opened its doors, and that’s also when Cangelosi started his musical career, at the original Moonlight location in nearby Pasadena.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At that time in the ‘50s, there was nothing but live organ music in most roller-skating rinks around the country,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Betty Palubeski, the rink manager']‘Tuesday night, it kinda takes you back in time. Doesn’t matter how old you are, it makes you feel young.’[/pullquote]Business was so good that the Moonlight expanded, buying the Glendale rink in 1963. Cangelosi worked both places — he was one of three staff organists — but as the years went by, the glory days of skating to an organ began to disappear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Back in the ‘70s and ‘80s, I was still working as a staff organist, only part time because after Elvis Presley and the Beatles, rock ‘n’ roll [records] came into the picture, and they kinda fazed out live organ music in the skating rinks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that didn’t stop Cangelosi. He was determined to keep the sound alive for die-hard rollers who craved the human touch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1985, he dropped $96,000 and bought the Glendale rink.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Since I was the organist here for so many years and I took over the business,” he says, “I kept the live organ music going at least one night a week.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That night is Tuesday. And Tuesday is tonight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s almost 8, almost time for Cangelosi to fire up the mighty Hammond B-3. He sits and opens a spiral notebook filled with aging sheet music. But before he touches the keys, he’s on the microphone, a rare moment, offering a bit of simple Zen guidance that applies as much to a roller rink as it does to human existence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Do not stop along the rails.

"content": "\u003cp>David Singer clicks through iTunes looking for “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off,” a film he watched at least 12 times when it first came out in 1986. He was in his early 20s then.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’re old,” his younger daughter mutters, as she nudges her dad to choose the HD version.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Singer has high hopes as he settles in to watch the film with his wife and their two daughters, Emma, 13, and Elliot, 16, at their home in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I want them to fall in love with it, just the way I did,” he says, as the opening scenes begin to roll. “Getting them to watch a movie from my younger days is always a challenge. They look slower and not as much in focus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Singer is like so many other people who came of age in the 1980s and idolized Ferris Bueller. For them, it will always be a fun movie about a kid faking being sick and skipping school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was just having a load of fun,” Singer says, remembering Ferris at the Cubs game and singing on the float in downtown Chicago. “Everyone has a friend like his buddy, who’s kind of a sad sack.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='small' align='right' citation='Danny Wedding, author of Movies and Mental Illness']‘In the 1980s, there might have been a tendency to see these as just rebellious teenagers misbehaving and causing trouble. Now, we’re more likely to be sensitive to the mental illness themes and to see Cameron as somebody coping with depression.’[/pullquote]But more than 30 years later, Cameron Frye, and his friendship with Ferris, look different through the eyes of today’s teens. They notice different themes and different dynamics. Watching the film from today’s perspective and applying today’s vocabulary, it’s clear that Cameron wasn’t just a sad sack — he was depressed and anxious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m dying,” he groans in his first scene, cocooned in bed, staring at the ceiling. To which Ferris responds, “You’re not dying. You just can’t think of anything good to do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout the film, Cameron’s fear is the foil to Ferris’ free spirit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they borrow Cameron’s dad’s precious Ferrari and things go wrong, Cameron “goes berserk,” in Ferris’ words, then spends the next several scenes in a catatonic state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe he’s really sick,” Ferris says, nibbling an Oreo in a hot tub while Cameron stares straight ahead over the swimming pool. “Maybe he isn’t just torturing himself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then Cameron tumbles into the pool, fully clothed, and sinks to the bottom. Ferris dives in to save him. It’s an ambiguous move — in the end, a prank, but with hints of suicide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Ferris Bueller, you’re my hero,” Cameron says sarcastically.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6gABQFR94U\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>From Hero to Jerk\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When David Singer watched this film in the ’80s, he did think of Ferris as a hero. But that wasn’t his daughter Elliot’s first reaction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I kinda hated him,” she says to her dad. “Ferris kinda sucks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He orders Cameron to get out of bed and pick him up, forces him to take his dad’s car, then dismisses Cameron’s concerns and blows him off as a worrier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He’s a very fun character,” Elliot says of Ferris. “But he’s also kind of an asshole.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plus, this whole taking-a-day-off-from-school business, pretending to be sick — that’s not how it goes down in her world.

They look slower and not as much in focus.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Singer is like so many other people who came of age in the 1980s and idolized Ferris Bueller. For them, it will always be a fun movie about a kid faking being sick and skipping school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was just having a load of fun,” Singer says, remembering Ferris at the Cubs game and singing on the float in downtown Chicago. “Everyone has a friend like his buddy, who’s kind of a sad sack.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They notice different themes and different dynamics. Watching the film from today’s perspective and applying today’s vocabulary, it’s clear that Cameron wasn’t just a sad sack — he was depressed and anxious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m dying,” he groans in his first scene, cocooned in bed, staring at the ceiling. To which Ferris responds, “You’re not dying. You just can’t think of anything good to do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout the film, Cameron’s fear is the foil to Ferris’ free spirit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When they borrow Cameron’s dad’s precious Ferrari and things go wrong, Cameron “goes berserk,” in Ferris’ words, then spends the next several scenes in a catatonic state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Maybe he’s really sick,” Ferris says, nibbling an Oreo in a hot tub while Cameron stares straight ahead over the swimming pool. “Maybe he isn’t just torturing himself.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then Cameron tumbles into the pool, fully clothed, and sinks to the bottom. Ferris dives in to save him. It’s an ambiguous move — in the end, a prank, but with hints of suicide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Ferris Bueller, you’re my hero,” Cameron says sarcastically.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/D6gABQFR94U'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/D6gABQFR94U'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>From Hero to Jerk\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When David Singer watched this film in the ’80s, he did think of Ferris as a hero.
