"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. 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.",

That’s a substantial shift to how textbooks are bought and distributed, particularly at the K-12 level, and it’s not quite clear how schools or students will handle these purchases or how this will impact budgeting decisions. After all, schools tend to procure textbooks with the understanding that they’ll last for at least 5 years. That does mean that the content can be out-dated, something that these digital textbooks are meant to combat.

While Ars Technica speculated prior to today’s news that this would be a “Garageband for E-Books,” that doesn’t seem like quite the right description. It’s more akin to iWorks for e-books — an authoring tool that greatly facilitates the layout of e-book content. The drag-and-drop interface makes it easy to add text, photos, video, Keynote slides, and even HTML widgets to build an iBook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I have “anyone” in quotes because, for the time being at least, this app is Mac (OS X) only. The app itself is free, and after building an e-book, one can upload it to the iBookstore. The textbooks that are built to sell or give away in the iBookstore will be subject to a review process, Apple says, and the company will take its normal “cut” of sales as well as demand exclusivity to their sale. One can bypass the iBookstore by simply emailing the file to another person, who’ll be able to open it with the iBook app.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Courseware: In addition to the new iBooks and iBooks Author apps, Apple also announced a new app for iTunes U. Long a hidden gem of the iTunes Store, iTunes U has provided a way for universities and other educational institutions to distribute course content — primarily lecture videos — via iTunes. With over 500,000 pieces of audio and visual content, Apple says that iTunes U is the “largest catalog of free educational content.” The new iTunes U app adds several new features to the platform, in Apple’s words, to “let teachers do a lot more” including offering “full online courses.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s close to an online learning management system, although it’s worth noting here that since the content on iTunes U has mostly been free and open, that there is no process here for submitting assignments or grades. And much like the new iTextbooks, what’s missing here is a “social” component. The app does allow instructors to upload full course packages, and starting today K-12 teachers will also be able to post their materials to the iTunes U ecosystem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Game-changer?: Apple’s announcements are often described in hyperbolic terms: “revolutionary,” for example. I’m not sure that we can necessarily apply that adjective here. Considering the involvement of the three largest education publishers — a group that currently controls 90% of the textbook market — I don’t think we can pronounce the textbook industry “digitally disrupted.” Rather, Apple has strengthened its relationship with these publishers who are now able to point to content that they’ve specifically designed to work on the iPad. Their content will continue to appear in other digital formats too, of course, and will likely still be available via other e-textbook apps (such as Inkling and Kno and CourseSmart).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ability to easily create e-books with the new iBooks Author app does feel like an important innovation, and if Apple can steer authors (students and teachers and “anyone”) to its iBookstore, then it will be in a better position to compete with Amazon’s self-publishing offerings. That’s not necessarily a game-changer for education, however; rather it’s about controlling the future of e-book creation and distribution, something that Apple must compete with Amazon over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s a future that revolves around the Apple publishing and app ecosystem, and it’s a future that relies on Apple hardware too — Macs and iPads. While all of this might make it easier to build, buy, and read beautiful interactive textbooks with these new “free” software tools, that hardware investment might be something that causes a lot of schools to balk.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The app itself is free, and after building an e-book, one can upload it to the iBookstore. The textbooks that are built to sell or give away in the iBookstore will be subject to a review process, Apple says, and the company will take its normal “cut” of sales as well as demand exclusivity to their sale. One can bypass the iBookstore by simply emailing the file to another person, who’ll be able to open it with the iBook app.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Courseware: In addition to the new iBooks and iBooks Author apps, Apple also announced a new app for iTunes U. Long a hidden gem of the iTunes Store, iTunes U has provided a way for universities and other educational institutions to distribute course content — primarily lecture videos — via iTunes. With over 500,000 pieces of audio and visual content, Apple says that iTunes U is the “largest catalog of free educational content.” The new iTunes U app adds several new features to the platform, in Apple’s words, to “let teachers do a lot more” including offering “full online courses.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s close to an online learning management system, although it’s worth noting here that since the content on iTunes U has mostly been free and open, that there is no process here for submitting assignments or grades. And much like the new iTextbooks, what’s missing here is a “social” component. The app does allow instructors to upload full course packages, and starting today K-12 teachers will also be able to post their materials to the iTunes U ecosystem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Game-changer?: Apple’s announcements are often described in hyperbolic terms: “revolutionary,” for example. I’m not sure that we can necessarily apply that adjective here. Considering the involvement of the three largest education publishers — a group that currently controls 90% of the textbook market — I don’t think we can pronounce the textbook industry “digitally disrupted.” Rather, Apple has strengthened its relationship with these publishers who are now able to point to content that they’ve specifically designed to work on the iPad. Their content will continue to appear in other digital formats too, of course, and will likely still be available via other e-textbook apps (such as Inkling and Kno and CourseSmart).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ability to easily create e-books with the new iBooks Author app does feel like an important innovation, and if Apple can steer authors (students and teachers and “anyone”) to its iBookstore, then it will be in a better position to compete with Amazon’s self-publishing offerings. That’s not necessarily a game-changer for education, however; rather it’s about controlling the future of e-book creation and distribution, something that Apple must compete with Amazon over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s a future that revolves around the Apple publishing and app ecosystem, and it’s a future that relies on Apple hardware too — Macs and iPads. While all of this might make it easier to build, buy, and read beautiful interactive textbooks with these new “free” software tools, that hardware investment might be something that causes a lot of schools to balk.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Events include a 6 a.m. \"squid fry\" at Goldman Sachs, a Bank of America \"tour of shame,\" a rally at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center, and an Iraq Veterans Against the War protest at the downtown office of the Bechtel, a military contractor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Protesters are also planning a \u003ca href=\"http://28thamendmentsf.org/\">Saturday event\u003c/a> to mark the two-year anniversary of the Supreme Court's \u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/search?q=citizens+united\">Citizens United decision\u003c/a>, which has opened the door to unrestricted campaign donations from \u003ca href=\"http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2011/09/one-thing-can-stop-corporations-from-buying-the-2012-election-transparency/245007/\">corporations\u003c/a>, as well as from \u003ca href=\"http://motherjones.com/politics/2010/06/citizens-united-effect\">labor unions\u003c/a>. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not yet scheduled as of Wednesday was one group’s plan to transform a financial institution into a food bank by collecting non-perishable food items at the bank and donating them to shelters and soup kitchens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Protesters on Wednesday spoke to the various issues they said were motivating them to take action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

However, the time has come for me to pursue other interests outside of Yahoo!

Inc. in 1995 with David Filo and served as a member of the Board of Directors since March 1995 and as Chief Executive Officer from June 2007 to January 2009. The Company went public in 1996.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Jerry Yang is a visionary and a pioneer, who has contributed enormously to Yahoo! during his many years of service,” said Roy Bostock, Chairman of the Yahoo! Board. “It has been a pleasure to work with Jerry. His unique strategic insights have been invaluable. He has always remained focused on the best interests of Yahoo!’s stakeholders, including shareholders, employees and more than 700 million users. And while I and the entire Board respect his decision, we will miss his remarkable perspective, vision and wise counsel. On behalf of the Board, we thank Jerry and wish him all the very best in his future endeavors.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bostock concluded, “We appreciate Jerry’s comments and share his enthusiasm for the company’s prospects. With Scott Thompson leading an outstanding team of Yahoos to deliver innovative products and an engaging customer experience, Yahoo!’s future is bright.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am grateful for the warm welcome and support Jerry provided me during my early days here,” said Scott Thompson, Yahoo!’s Chief Executive Officer. “Jerry leaves behind a legacy of innovation and customer focus for this iconic brand, having shaped our culture by fostering a spirit of innovation that began 17 years ago and continues to grow even stronger today. Jerry has great confidence in the future of Yahoo!, and I share his confidence in the enormous potential of Yahoo! in the days ahead.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
