"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.",

"content": "\u003cp>The second San Francisco Street Food Conference earlier this week brought a large room’s worth of people together in search of a recipe. No, not the ingredients for salted-caramel cupcakes or Korean tacos.

I I asked her why Portland became an early center of street food culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would describe their attitude toward regulation as laissez-faire,\" she says. \"In the 1950’s and onward, a lot of cities re-regulated to prevent what they called 'street peddlers' or mobile food vendors – part of that 1950’s urban renewal where they got rid of sidewalks and put in freeways. Portland never did that sort of thing, so it’s not so much what Portland did as what they haven’t done. If you’re on land that is zoned commercial, meaning you could put a restaurant or a home business there, and you have a business license and get the appropriate permits, which are fairly straightforward, you can have a food cart. It does not need to move every 30 or 45 minutes as it does in some cities – as long as it has axles and can be hauled away at some point, it is considered a mobile food unit.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> “Some cities are very supportive of food trucks, such as Cleveland. They’ve realized that they’re good economic development, good temporary land use for blighted spaces, they create jobs, they bring positive street use – eyes on the street. Some cities are afraid of them, there’s still a prejudice around food trucks. A place like New Orleans basically doesn’t allow them but people do them anyway. So every city is different – and that’s the issue, there is no one model. A lot of vendors will put the cart before the horse, so to speak – and go out and buy carts when what they really need to do is find out what the scene is where they want to set up. And they need to be prepared for more paperwork than they ever thought was possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The brick-and-mortar restaurants in a community often complain when food trucks come to town, because they see them as unfair competition, since the trucks don’t have the same expense of rent or décor. Caston says in her experience that's not true.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Where’s the data on this? Has anyone ever done a study on this? To my knowledge there never has been an empirical, rational study on this, and until there is, a city should not make public policy and laws based on hearsay. In economic development, there’s a term called 'complementary retail segmentation,' where businesses that are similar, but not alike, will set up next to each other. North Berkeley and the Gourmet Ghetto, for example, where you’ll have a café next to a wine bar next to a mid-range Indian buffet next to a high-end restaurant. And the idea is – and this has been empirically proven – that when you have a group of similar businesses, they’ll attract more people as a whole. They become a destination. It’s my belief, although I don’t have evidence, that food trucks fit into that mold. As long as they’re not set up directly in front of a restaurant, hogging their parking and causing a traffic problem. “\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gail Lillian can be described as a veteran of the new style of street food in the Bay Area – she’s had her \u003ca href=\"http://www.libafalafel.com/\">Liba Falafel\u003c/a> business for two years now. So I asked her what changes she’s seen since she started up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Well, I think there’s a lot more diversity of cuisine in Bay Area food trucks now, she says, \"and there’s also a trend towards more prepping in kitchens and just cooking the food on the trucks when we serve it to customers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the things I do to make the truck more accessible is I take orders outside, instead of through a little window.

I I asked her why Portland became an early center of street food culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would describe their attitude toward regulation as laissez-faire,\" she says. \"In the 1950’s and onward, a lot of cities re-regulated to prevent what they called 'street peddlers' or mobile food vendors – part of that 1950’s urban renewal where they got rid of sidewalks and put in freeways. Portland never did that sort of thing, so it’s not so much what Portland did as what they haven’t done. If you’re on land that is zoned commercial, meaning you could put a restaurant or a home business there, and you have a business license and get the appropriate permits, which are fairly straightforward, you can have a food cart. It does not need to move every 30 or 45 minutes as it does in some cities – as long as it has axles and can be hauled away at some point, it is considered a mobile food unit.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They’ve realized that they’re good economic development, good temporary land use for blighted spaces, they create jobs, they bring positive street use – eyes on the street. Some cities are afraid of them, there’s still a prejudice around food trucks. A place like New Orleans basically doesn’t allow them but people do them anyway. So every city is different – and that’s the issue, there is no one model. A lot of vendors will put the cart before the horse, so to speak – and go out and buy carts when what they really need to do is find out what the scene is where they want to set up. And they need to be prepared for more paperwork than they ever thought was possible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The brick-and-mortar restaurants in a community often complain when food trucks come to town, because they see them as unfair competition, since the trucks don’t have the same expense of rent or décor. Caston says in her experience that's not true.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Where’s the data on this? Has anyone ever done a study on this? To my knowledge there never has been an empirical, rational study on this, and until there is, a city should not make public policy and laws based on hearsay. In economic development, there’s a term called 'complementary retail segmentation,' where businesses that are similar, but not alike, will set up next to each other. North Berkeley and the Gourmet Ghetto, for example, where you’ll have a café next to a wine bar next to a mid-range Indian buffet next to a high-end restaurant. And the idea is – and this has been empirically proven – that when you have a group of similar businesses, they’ll attract more people as a whole. They become a destination. It’s my belief, although I don’t have evidence, that food trucks fit into that mold. As long as they’re not set up directly in front of a restaurant, hogging their parking and causing a traffic problem. “\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gail Lillian can be described as a veteran of the new style of street food in the Bay Area – she’s had her \u003ca href=\"http://www.libafalafel.com/\">Liba Falafel\u003c/a> business for two years now. So I asked her what changes she’s seen since she started up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Well, I think there’s a lot more diversity of cuisine in Bay Area food trucks now, she says, \"and there’s also a trend towards more prepping in kitchens and just cooking the food on the trucks when we serve it to customers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the things I do to make the truck more accessible is I take orders outside, instead of through a little window. I find that works for me because I can interact with my customers, know their names, find out about their lives, and it’s also easier (when I’m outside) for people to walk up and say “hey, what’s falafel?” There are tons of people in the Bay Area who don’t know what falafel is, so I’m really happy to give out samples and introduce people to it.

Their goal is not deficit reduction. But deficit reduction is being used as the weapon to cut these critical commitments that are so fundamental to our society.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for President Obama, he continues to draw raving-mad reviews from liberals on what's being characterized as his \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/01/opinion/the-president-surrenders-on-debt-ceiling.html\">capitulation\u003c/a> to Republicans.

We have a stagnant recovery, virtually no growth. We have a federal government that has no coherent or any plans to deal with what's going wrong. And then we have, as many have noted, a bill that accomplishes very little except renewing the debt ceiling, which should have been an automatic mechanism anyway. So that fake problem was solved. And on top of that we have something that is going to induce short-term spending cuts at a time when we need money in this economy to drive the move toward jobs. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The embarrassing spectacle of what played out in Washington, I don't have to pile on there, everyone knows it was an absolute farce, regardless of one's political views, and everyone behaved essentially like a child. Obama I guess did not behave like a child, he behaved like an adult, as if that were its own reward. But I feel he did not lead, and he's bought into this idea that somehow he can win the next election by convincing this vague group of people in the middle, independent voters, that he's the only adult in the room. Well that and a quarter won't get you a subway fare. And I think he's done himself a tremendous amount of damage. The best thing he has going for him is the divisions in the Republican party and the lunatics that have taken over the asylum down there. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>But his own base in many ways is very disillusioned, so he's caused a real schism there hasn't he? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has, but it's hard to picture that anyone in his base is going to vote for Mitt romeny or a Michelle Bachmann. That said, it could very well dampen turnout and enthusiasm. It's not as if young voters and African American voters are going to vote for the opposition, but they might just stay home. I think this administration has this magical belief that he can in a campaign automatically re-create the grandeur and the excitement of the first time around. I'm not so convinced. I think it's a form of magical thinking, and on the assumption unemployment is going to remain this high or close to it and that nothing is going to help Americans who are really hurting, that's very bad for Obama. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if the Republicans don't want to do a damn thing on their own to hope anyone -- indeed they don’t -- but you have a situation where the presumptive frontrunner in that party, Romney, is going around pretending to be Tom Joad; he's acting as if he's this great savior of working class America. He's appearing before shuttered factories throughout the country, presenting himself as a jobs creator as Obama was not. In real life he was a venture capitalist who shredded jobs in companies that his company took over and broke up for parts. That he can get away with it at all is a problem for Obama because Romney is a total phony. \u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\n",

We have a stagnant recovery, virtually no growth. We have a federal government that has no coherent or any plans to deal with what's going wrong. And then we have, as many have noted, a bill that accomplishes very little except renewing the debt ceiling, which should have been an automatic mechanism anyway. So that fake problem was solved. And on top of that we have something that is going to induce short-term spending cuts at a time when we need money in this economy to drive the move toward jobs. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The embarrassing spectacle of what played out in Washington, I don't have to pile on there, everyone knows it was an absolute farce, regardless of one's political views, and everyone behaved essentially like a child. Obama I guess did not behave like a child, he behaved like an adult, as if that were its own reward. But I feel he did not lead, and he's bought into this idea that somehow he can win the next election by convincing this vague group of people in the middle, independent voters, that he's the only adult in the room. Well that and a quarter won't get you a subway fare. And I think he's done himself a tremendous amount of damage. The best thing he has going for him is the divisions in the Republican party and the lunatics that have taken over the asylum down there. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>But his own base in many ways is very disillusioned, so he's caused a real schism there hasn't he? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He has, but it's hard to picture that anyone in his base is going to vote for Mitt romeny or a Michelle Bachmann. That said, it could very well dampen turnout and enthusiasm. It's not as if young voters and African American voters are going to vote for the opposition, but they might just stay home. I think this administration has this magical belief that he can in a campaign automatically re-create the grandeur and the excitement of the first time around. I'm not so convinced. I think it's a form of magical thinking, and on the assumption unemployment is going to remain this high or close to it and that nothing is going to help Americans who are really hurting, that's very bad for Obama. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if the Republicans don't want to do a damn thing on their own to hope anyone -- indeed they don’t -- but you have a situation where the presumptive frontrunner in that party, Romney, is going around pretending to be Tom Joad; he's acting as if he's this great savior of working class America. He's appearing before shuttered factories throughout the country, presenting himself as a jobs creator as Obama was not. In real life he was a venture capitalist who shredded jobs in companies that his company took over and broke up for parts. That he can get away with it at all is a problem for Obama because Romney is a total phony. \u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate emphatically passed emergency legislation Tuesday to avoid a first-ever government default, rushing the legislation to President Barack Obama for his signature just hours before the deadline. The vote was 74-26.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obama signed the bill little more than an hour later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday's vote capped an extraordinarily difficult Washington battle pitting tea party Republican forces in the House against Obama and Democrats controlling the Senate. The resulting compromise paired an essential increase in the government's borrowing cap with promises of more than $2 trillion of budget cuts over the next decade. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's an important first step to ensuring that as a nation we live within our means,\" Obama said after the vote. \"This is, however, just the first step. This compromise requires that both parties work together on a larger plan to cut the deficit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of the measure, which the House passed Monday night, was negotiated on terms set by House Speaker John Boehner, including a demand that any increase in the nation's borrowing cap be matched by spending cuts. But the legislation also meets demands made by Obama, including debt-limit increases large enough to keep the government funded into 2013 and curbs on growth of the Pentagon budget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've had to settle for less than we wanted, but what we've achieved is in no way insignificant,\" said Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky. \"But I think it was the view of those in my party that we'd try to get as much spending cuts as we could from a government we didn't control. And that's what we've done with this bipartisan agreement.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many supporters of the legislation lamented what they saw as flaws and the intense partisanship from which it was forged. In the end, it was a lowest-common-denominators approach that puts off tough decisions on tax increases and cuts to entitlement programs like Medicare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What troubles me about it is that the bipartisan compromise also represents a kind of bipartisan agreement by each party to yield to the other party's most politically and ideologically sensitive priority,\" said Joseph Lieberman, I-Conn. \"In the case of Democrats, it's to protect entitlement spending. ... In the case of Republicans, it's to not raise taxes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure would provide an immediate $400 billion increase in the $14.3 trillion U.S. borrowing cap, with $500 billion more assured this fall. That $900 billion would be matched by cuts to agency budgets over the next 10 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Senate vote was never in doubt after Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and McConnell signed on. But like Monday's House vote, defections came from liberal Democrats unhappy that Obama gave too much ground in the talks, as well as from conservative Republicans who said the measure would barely dent deficits that require the government to borrow more than 40 cents of every dollar it spends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is a time for us to make tough choices as compared to kick the can down the road one more time,\" said freshman GOP Sen. Jerry Moran of Kansas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure sets up a fall drama that promises to again test the ability of Obama and Republicans to work cooperatively. It establishes a special bipartisan committee to draft legislation to find up to $1.5 trillion more in deficit cuts for a vote later this year. They're likely to come from such programs as federal retirement benefits, farm subsidies, Medicare and Medicaid. The savings would be matched by a further increase in the borrowing cap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's no guarantee the committee, to be evenly split between the warring parties, will agree on such legislation. But there are powerful incentives to do so because more budget gridlock would trigger a crippling round of automatic cuts across much of the budget, including Pentagon coffers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And questions linger about the effect the grueling political free-for-all will have on the U.S. credit rating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner told ABC News that he didn't know whether the debt-limit fight would cause America's AAA credit rating to be downgraded. \"It's not my judgment to make,\" he said. Geithner also said he fears world confidence in the United States was damaged by \"this spectacle.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enactment of the measure provides welcome closure for Obama, who has seen his poll numbers sag during the debt-limit battle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GOP presidential candidates such as Mitt Romney and Michele Bachmann issued statements opposing the legislation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As with any compromise, the outcome is far from satisfying,\" Obama conceded in a video his re-election campaign sent to millions of Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a tweet, the president was more positive: \"The debt agreement makes a significant down payment to reduce the deficit — finding savings in both defense and domestic spending.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

The vote was 74-26.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obama signed the bill little more than an hour later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday's vote capped an extraordinarily difficult Washington battle pitting tea party Republican forces in the House against Obama and Democrats controlling the Senate. The resulting compromise paired an essential increase in the government's borrowing cap with promises of more than $2 trillion of budget cuts over the next decade. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's an important first step to ensuring that as a nation we live within our means,\" Obama said after the vote. \"This is, however, just the first step. This compromise requires that both parties work together on a larger plan to cut the deficit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of the measure, which the House passed Monday night, was negotiated on terms set by House Speaker John Boehner, including a demand that any increase in the nation's borrowing cap be matched by spending cuts. But the legislation also meets demands made by Obama, including debt-limit increases large enough to keep the government funded into 2013 and curbs on growth of the Pentagon budget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And that's what we've done with this bipartisan agreement.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many supporters of the legislation lamented what they saw as flaws and the intense partisanship from which it was forged. In the end, it was a lowest-common-denominators approach that puts off tough decisions on tax increases and cuts to entitlement programs like Medicare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What troubles me about it is that the bipartisan compromise also represents a kind of bipartisan agreement by each party to yield to the other party's most politically and ideologically sensitive priority,\" said Joseph Lieberman, I-Conn. \"In the case of Democrats, it's to protect entitlement spending. ... In the case of Republicans, it's to not raise taxes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure would provide an immediate $400 billion increase in the $14.3 trillion U.S. borrowing cap, with $500 billion more assured this fall. That $900 billion would be matched by cuts to agency budgets over the next 10 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Senate vote was never in doubt after Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and McConnell signed on. But like Monday's House vote, defections came from liberal Democrats unhappy that Obama gave too much ground in the talks, as well as from conservative Republicans who said the measure would barely dent deficits that require the government to borrow more than 40 cents of every dollar it spends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is a time for us to make tough choices as compared to kick the can down the road one more time,\" said freshman GOP Sen. Jerry Moran of Kansas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure sets up a fall drama that promises to again test the ability of Obama and Republicans to work cooperatively. It establishes a special bipartisan committee to draft legislation to find up to $1.5 trillion more in deficit cuts for a vote later this year. They're likely to come from such programs as federal retirement benefits, farm subsidies, Medicare and Medicaid. The savings would be matched by a further increase in the borrowing cap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's no guarantee the committee, to be evenly split between the warring parties, will agree on such legislation. But there are powerful incentives to do so because more budget gridlock would trigger a crippling round of automatic cuts across much of the budget, including Pentagon coffers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And questions linger about the effect the grueling political free-for-all will have on the U.S. credit rating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner told ABC News that he didn't know whether the debt-limit fight would cause America's AAA credit rating to be downgraded. \"It's not my judgment to make,\" he said. Geithner also said he fears world confidence in the United States was damaged by \"this spectacle.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enactment of the measure provides welcome closure for Obama, who has seen his poll numbers sag during the debt-limit battle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GOP presidential candidates such as Mitt Romney and Michele Bachmann issued statements opposing the legislation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As with any compromise, the outcome is far from satisfying,\" Obama conceded in a video his re-election campaign sent to millions of Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a tweet, the president was more positive: \"The debt agreement makes a significant down payment to reduce the deficit — finding savings in both defense and domestic spending.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
