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.",

He was depressed and thought about leaving the area. But then he started getting to know Kate. She grooms dogs and had been tending to his Pomeranian. They ended up falling in love with each other — and with tortoises.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now we’re tortoise wranglers,” Kate said, “saving the tortoises, and grooming our grandkids to take over for us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pair are so committed to this reptile-rescuing life that they got matching tortoise tattoos. Hers is right below her collarbone. It’s simple. A small cartoonish outline of a tortoise with a little red heart inside it. Ken’s is on his forearm. It’s large and lifelike and peeling. That’s because it’s fresh. The pair just got the tattoos last week, right when the fires that would threaten their sanctuary first erupted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ken and Kate have over 80 tortoises that they have rescued from across the country. Tortoise abandonment is fairly common. They live long and get big and many people who buy them eventually can’t or don’t want to care for the reptiles anymore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11684427\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-800x604.jpg\" alt=\"Shelly, aka 'Little Man,' about to chomp down on a special treat of watermelon at Ken and Kate Hoffman's sanctuary, Tortoise Acres.\" width=\"800\" height=\"604\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11684427\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-800x604.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-160x121.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-1020x770.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-1200x906.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-1180x891.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-960x725.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-240x181.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-375x283.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-520x392.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shelly, aka ‘Little Man,’ about to chomp down on a special treat of watermelon at Ken and Kate Hoffman’s sanctuary, Tortoise Acres. \u003ccite>(Sam Harnett/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Ken and Kate have all sorts of species, from the common and easily bred sulcata tortoises to ones that are on the endangered species list like the Mojave and Sonoran desert tortoises.

Luckily, they were able to borrow a truck from a friend. Then, as they were driving, that truck broke down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Desperate, they posted on Facebook.

The tortoises were stuffed into the trailer, bunked on top of each other, and getting very stressed. Pretty soon the suffering would turn into real medical issues for the cooped-up reptiles. Time was running out on their short-term solution of packing everyone into the horse trailer.

Ken knows the back story of every tortoise on the sanctuary. \u003ccite>(Sam Harnett/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Ken had been married for almost four decades when his wife passed away a few years ago. He was depressed and thought about leaving the area. But then he started getting to know Kate. She grooms dogs and had been tending to his Pomeranian. They ended up falling in love with each other — and with tortoises.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now we’re tortoise wranglers,” Kate said, “saving the tortoises, and grooming our grandkids to take over for us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The pair are so committed to this reptile-rescuing life that they got matching tortoise tattoos. Hers is right below her collarbone. It’s simple. A small cartoonish outline of a tortoise with a little red heart inside it. Ken’s is on his forearm. It’s large and lifelike and peeling. That’s because it’s fresh. The pair just got the tattoos last week, right when the fires that would threaten their sanctuary first erupted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ken and Kate have over 80 tortoises that they have rescued from across the country. Tortoise abandonment is fairly common. They live long and get big and many people who buy them eventually can’t or don’t want to care for the reptiles anymore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11684427\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-800x604.jpg\" alt=\"Shelly, aka 'Little Man,' about to chomp down on a special treat of watermelon at Ken and Kate Hoffman's sanctuary, Tortoise Acres.\" width=\"800\" height=\"604\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11684427\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-800x604.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-160x121.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-1020x770.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-1200x906.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-1180x891.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-960x725.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-240x181.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-375x283.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/ShellyAKALittleMan-520x392.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shelly, aka ‘Little Man,’ about to chomp down on a special treat of watermelon at Ken and Kate Hoffman’s sanctuary, Tortoise Acres. \u003ccite>(Sam Harnett/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Ken and Kate have all sorts of species, from the common and easily bred sulcata tortoises to ones that are on the endangered species list like the Mojave and Sonoran desert tortoises.

Ken got to work on the tortoises, wrangling them into a big horse trailer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was no easy task, given the 200-pounders and the fact the males will fight each other. He had to build barricades in his horse trailer to separate them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It took Ken and Kate over seven hours to pack everything up. And then of course there was the truck saga.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First they discovered their old truck had broken down. It had lost its high gears. Luckily, they were able to borrow a truck from a friend. Then, as they were driving, that truck broke down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Desperate, they posted on Facebook. In a few hours, a guy with a local fence company came through and lent them yet another truck.

The tortoises were stuffed into the trailer, bunked on top of each other, and getting very stressed. Pretty soon the suffering would turn into real medical issues for the cooped-up reptiles. Time was running out on their short-term solution of packing everyone into the horse trailer.

The city’s Board of Supervisors approved the ban on a preliminary basis last week and the final decision is on its agenda Tuesday. That has shops that sell boba, or bubble tea — a drink that has to be sucked through a straw — concerned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bubble tea is typically served in a big plastic cup over ice. It has balls of tapioca at the bottom the size of small marbles. You use a wide straw to suck up the tapioca, or boba, from the bottom of the cup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For boba fans, the straw is an integral part of the experience. “Boba is just, in general, an expression, right?” says Alvin Yu, co-owner of the city’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.steepsf.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Steep Creamery and Tea\u003c/a>. “You have not just tapioca pearls, but you also have aloe jelly, you have these herbal jellies that we make ourselves. And it all requires a straw.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Yelp, more than 200 shops sell bubble tea in San Francisco. All of them will have to change their business practices if the city bans plastic straws to help reduce litter and landfill and combat the amount of single-use plastics that end up polluting the ocean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The size and shape of plastic straws makes them particularly problematic for the city’s composting and recycling centers, says San Francisco Supervisor \u003ca href=\"https://sfbos.org/supervisor-tang-district-4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Katy Tang\u003c/a>, who spearheaded the bill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When they’re being sorted in the sorting machines, [the straws] just fall through the cracks and so they don’t actually get composted — even if they are supposedly made of compostable material,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why San Francisco’s plastic straw ban goes a step further than similar prohibitions passed by other U.S. cities: Not even plastic that’s compostable is allowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yu says he was lucky. His shop was able to beat the rush and order paper straws in advance of the ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other boba shops haven’t been so fortunate.

They’re all reporting huge orders and delays lasting up to \u003cem>four months\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But paper is not a perfect fix, says Yu. “Part of the experience of drinking boba is poking a sharp end of a straw through the plastic seal of a cup. And that’s something we wanted to emulate,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the paper straws Yu ordered aren’t cut with a point on the end. So he and his staff have to cut them all by hand. The paper straws are also expensive — about 10 times more than plastic straws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What about drinking bubble tea without a straw? “It’d be really hard,” says boba fan Julie Abad, a customer at Yu’s shop drinking a plain black tea with tapioca and lychee jelly at the bottom. “I think I’d have to pour it into a cup and use a spoon or something.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others, like customer Kehlani Penland, just dismissed the idea outright. “Nobody wants to do that when you’re walking and it’s cold outside. You know, you just want to sip it with a straw!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right now, Steep Creamery and Tea is offering the paper straws for free. But Yu says that over time, he will have to raise prices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, some environmentally conscious boba consumers, like 10-year-old Alice Asoyan, say all this effort is worth it. “Our world is in big danger right now because of plastic, so paper is probably better,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the bill passes again on Tuesday, it goes to Mayor London Breed for her signature.

At least 500 structures have been destroyed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire Chief Ken Pimlott said in a Friday afternoon media briefing that the \u003ca href=\"http://www.fire.ca.gov/current_incidents/incidentdetails/Index/2164\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Carr Fire\u003c/a>, which was sparked Monday by a disabled vehicle on a highway northwest of Redding, \"is not close to being done.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday evening, the fire rampaged through the communities of Keswick and Shasta and burned across the Redding city limits. The city, 200 miles north of San Francisco, is home to about 90,000 people. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire updated its report on damage late Friday night. In addition to the 500 structures destroyed -- the count of residences was not immediately available -- the agency said 5,000 structures are threatened. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An Associated Press reporter toured parts of the devastated area during the day Friday and counted a total of 126 burned homes -- 66 in the Lake Redding Estates neighborhood and another 60 in nearby Lake Keswick Estates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The blaze is \"taking down everything in its path,\" said Scott McLean, a Cal Fire spokesman for the crews battling the blaze. By Friday evening, the fire had covered 48,312 acres -- 75 square miles -- and was just 5 percent contained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials said that 38,000 people had been displaced from their homes. The evacuated areas include French Gulch, Summit City, Shasta Lake City and parts of Redding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With the fire continuing to exhibit extreme behavior, officials urged residents in the rest of the city to be prepared to leave quickly if evacuation orders are issued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The weather outlook offers no promise of a respite, with a red flag warning in place until Monday morning. The forecast conditions depict an almost impossible situation for the growing army of firefighters struggling to contain the fire in the mountains and hills west and north of Redding: 110-degree temperatures, humidity between 5 and 10 percent and winds gusting up to 30 mph.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two firefighers have died in the fire so far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Late Thursday, crews found the body of a contract bulldozer operator hired by Cal Fire to clear vegetation in the blaze's path, McLean said. The fire burned over the operator and his equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal/OSHA said the operator worked for Robert Dominikus General Engineering. This incident marks the third fatality of a contractor in a California wildfire in the last two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Early Friday, Cal Fire confirmed that Fire Inspector Jeremy Stoke of the Redding Fire Department had also been killed.

The city, 200 miles north of San Francisco, is home to about 90,000 people. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire updated its report on damage late Friday night. In addition to the 500 structures destroyed -- the count of residences was not immediately available -- the agency said 5,000 structures are threatened. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

By Friday evening, the fire had covered 48,312 acres -- 75 square miles -- and was just 5 percent contained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials said that 38,000 people had been displaced from their homes.

The forecast conditions depict an almost impossible situation for the growing army of firefighters struggling to contain the fire in the mountains and hills west and north of Redding: 110-degree temperatures, humidity between 5 and 10 percent and winds gusting up to 30 mph.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two firefighers have died in the fire so far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Late Thursday, crews found the body of a contract bulldozer operator hired by Cal Fire to clear vegetation in the blaze's path, McLean said.
