His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

Some of those are empty, either to be filled here or filled elsewhere. As for loaded containers, the port hit a record last year when it handled 1.9 million of them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost everything can be, and is, sent by container ship, Zampa says. From palm trees to racehorses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You name it, you’ll find it in a container,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Ship Size Matters\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>As for the ships, they keep getting bigger to handle more volume. The biggest ships are longer than the Empire State Building is tall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you tip the Empire State Building on its side, the biggest ships coming to Oakland are bigger,” Zampa says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Your average ship can hold about 14,000 containers. Last year, the biggest ship that came to Oakland could hold more than 18,000 containers. According to \u003ca href=\"http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-21432226\">the BBC\u003c/a>, a ship that big could fit 36,000 cars or 863 million tins of baked beans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is one of the reasons shipping by sea is more efficient than shipping by air, Zampa says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you put all that cargo on airplanes, how many airplanes would it take? I couldn’t tell you,” he says. “But that’s a lot more exhaust being emitted.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comparing the cargo space of an average freighter ship to the cargo space of a 747 airplane, it would take roughly 630 planes to move as much as a single ship. The difference is time. On average it takes a couple of weeks for a container ship to cross the Pacific from Asia.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A ‘Star Wars’ Connection?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>We’ve been asked if the cranes at the port inspired \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Nah-dude-they-weren-t-cranes-they-were-garbage-3279459.php\">George Lucas\u003c/a> to create the AT-AT snow walkers in “The Empire Strikes Back.” It turns out that they did not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zampa says the port is still special, just not in a Hollywood way.

From palm trees to racehorses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You name it, you’ll find it in a container,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Ship Size Matters\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>As for the ships, they keep getting bigger to handle more volume. The biggest ships are longer than the Empire State Building is tall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you tip the Empire State Building on its side, the biggest ships coming to Oakland are bigger,” Zampa says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Your average ship can hold about 14,000 containers. Last year, the biggest ship that came to Oakland could hold more than 18,000 containers. According to \u003ca href=\"http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-21432226\">the BBC\u003c/a>, a ship that big could fit 36,000 cars or 863 million tins of baked beans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is one of the reasons shipping by sea is more efficient than shipping by air, Zampa says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you put all that cargo on airplanes, how many airplanes would it take? I couldn’t tell you,” he says. “But that’s a lot more exhaust being emitted.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comparing the cargo space of an average freighter ship to the cargo space of a 747 airplane, it would take roughly 630 planes to move as much as a single ship. The difference is time. On average it takes a couple of weeks for a container ship to cross the Pacific from Asia.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A ‘Star Wars’ Connection?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>We’ve been asked if the cranes at the port inspired \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Nah-dude-they-weren-t-cranes-they-were-garbage-3279459.php\">George Lucas\u003c/a> to create the AT-AT snow walkers in “The Empire Strikes Back.” It turns out that they did not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zampa says the port is still special, just not in a Hollywood way.

Both companies have operations throughout the Central Valley and Southern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>News of the penalties comes as agricultural commissioners in three California counties investigate several other chemical drift incidents that sickened some three dozen agricultural workers over the summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Kern County fines are the result of an investigation by the county agricultural department that found the companies’ use of two pesticides near Maricopa on May 5 violated state law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The penalties are the most expensive fines issued by the county in several years, according to Glenn Fankhauser, Kern County agricultural commissioner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want to do everything we can to protect the public and the environment,” Fankhauser said. “Integral to this is agricultural safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fieldworkers who became ill were harvesting cabbage for the Dan Andrews Farms. That morning, as many as 37 employees complained of an odor that made them sick. Officials say five of them sought medical treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Agricultural officials took foliage samples from fields in the area. Lab tests on those samples confirmed that Vulcan, a pesticide with the controversial chemical \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2017/03/29/521898976/will-the-epa-reject-a-pesticide-or-its-own-scientific-evidence\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">chlorpyrifos\u003c/a>, and Cosavet DF, which contains sulfur, had drifted a half-mile away, into the area where the cabbage-harvesting employees were working.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sun Pacific was fined $30,250 for violating five pesticide laws. It had applied Vulcan to a number of seedless tangerine fields starting the evening before the workers got sick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators said the company improperly sprayed the chemical because it used a nozzle that violated the pesticide company’s label guidelines. Growers who use Vulcan are supposed to ensure that their sprays involve droplets that are too heavy to be carried through the air.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They used nozzles which created a mist which was too fine than was specified on the label,” Fankhauser said in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Grapeman was penalized $20,000 for violating two pesticide regulations. The company applied Cosavet DF to several grape sites an hour before the illnesses were reported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was windy the morning the grower used the pesticide, investigators said. The company should not have sprayed the chemicals, given the weather conditions and the possibility they could have drifted to nearby fields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Representatives of Sun Pacific and Grapeman Farms have yet to respond to requests for comment. Both companies can appeal the fines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The penalties were announced less than a week after more than a dozen farmworkers in South Bakersfield got sick, possibly because of a chemical drift. Kern County fire officials say 13 people in that Aug. 2 incident were decontaminated after complaining of eye irritation and nausea while working in a garlic field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fankhauser says his office is investigating six farm labor contractors, landowners and pesticide applicators in connection with last week’s case. Investigators believe Vulcan and Vapam, a soil fumigant, may have gotten those workers sick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In June, two dozen farmworkers in the \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/30/chemicals-sicken-two-dozen-central-coast-farm-workers-in-one-week/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Salinas and Watsonville\u003c/a> areas were hospitalized after chemical drifts apparently made them sick, incidents that \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/07/06/advocates-concerned-about-chemical-drifts-that-sickened-central-coast-farmworkers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">alarmed farmworker advocates\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Growers tied to Dole Food Co. and Driscoll’s, a major berry distributor, are under investigation in connection with the \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/01/driscolls-tied-to-central-coast-chemical-incident-that-sickened-farmworkers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Watsonville case\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The company applied Cosavet DF to several grape sites an hour before the illnesses were reported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was windy the morning the grower used the pesticide, investigators said. The company should not have sprayed the chemicals, given the weather conditions and the possibility they could have drifted to nearby fields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Representatives of Sun Pacific and Grapeman Farms have yet to respond to requests for comment.
