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.",

But they had to wait for hours in the cold, dark rain for rescuers to arrive. Landi began shivering badly. To warm her up, Gray resorted to urinating into a water bottle and using that as a form of heat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s disgusting, but at that point you figure you do what you can to survive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Finally, a helicopter arrived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As she was hoisted away in a rescue basket, Landi recalls the terrible feeling she had seeing Gray left behind.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wanted to throw up,\" Landi says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gray already was helping one of his hosts, Ken Grand, who was stuck up in a tree in boxer shorts and a T-shirt. He was hypothermic with purple lips and had a broken leg, says Gray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It took all of Gray’s strength to help him down from the tree and drag him out through the thick mud to a nearby patio.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It wasn’t easy,” says Gray, a former physical therapist who works out regularly. “You try to keep your body healthy and fit. You never know when you’re going to need it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gray then helped Grand’s 25-year-old stepdaughter, who was stranded in the main house.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a miraculous escape, says Landi. “I personally feel like there was some divine intervention that we survived.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But one person was still missing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rebecca Riskin, the owner of the property who had so graciously offered the guesthouse, was last seen by her husband, Ken Grand, floating away in the mud. Authorities announced Wednesday afternoon that rescuers had found her body nearly 2 miles away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The loss hit Landi hard. Her first job out of college came from Riskin. Later they became business partners in a real estate firm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She was one of my closest and dearest friends,” Landi says. “She was my rock.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The whole reason they were at the guesthouse in the first place was due to an act of kindness by Riskin. They made it out alive. She didn’t.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s the hardest part of the story for us,” says Landi. “Y'know there’s that guilt that we couldn’t save Rebecca.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite their traumatic experience, Landi and Gray say Montecito will remain their home. They say everything that made it a great place to live is still there, including the spirt of Riskin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The community just needs time to recover, as do they, says Gray.\u003c/p>\n\n",

He was hypothermic with purple lips and had a broken leg, says Gray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It took all of Gray’s strength to help him down from the tree and drag him out through the thick mud to a nearby patio.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It wasn’t easy,” says Gray, a former physical therapist who works out regularly. “You try to keep your body healthy and fit. You never know when you’re going to need it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gray then helped Grand’s 25-year-old stepdaughter, who was stranded in the main house.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a miraculous escape, says Landi. “I personally feel like there was some divine intervention that we survived.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But one person was still missing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rebecca Riskin, the owner of the property who had so graciously offered the guesthouse, was last seen by her husband, Ken Grand, floating away in the mud. Authorities announced Wednesday afternoon that rescuers had found her body nearly 2 miles away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The loss hit Landi hard. Her first job out of college came from Riskin. Later they became business partners in a real estate firm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She was one of my closest and dearest friends,” Landi says. “She was my rock.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The whole reason they were at the guesthouse in the first place was due to an act of kindness by Riskin. They made it out alive. She didn’t.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s the hardest part of the story for us,” says Landi. “Y'know there’s that guilt that we couldn’t save Rebecca.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite their traumatic experience, Landi and Gray say Montecito will remain their home. They say everything that made it a great place to live is still there, including the spirt of Riskin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The community just needs time to recover, as do they, says Gray.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>A lawsuit challenging Oakland's ban on coal shipments in and out of the city -- a measure the City Council passed to head off plans to handle the fossil fuel at a proposed new port facility -- is heading to trial in San Francisco on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, U.S. District Court Judge Vince Chhabria denied motions by both sides in the case to make a quick ruling on the suit filed by one of Oakland's best-known business figures. Instead, Chhabria outlined the rules for a narrow and speedy bench trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Developer Phil Tagami brought \u003ca href=\"#obotsuit\">the suit\u003c/a> in December 2016 on behalf of one of his companies, \u003ca href=\"http://obotjv.com\">Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal LLC, \u003c/a> five months after the City Council passed the coal ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/06/28/oakland-city-council-votes-to-block-coal-shipments-through-port/\">council acted\u003c/a> after it learned that Tagami had partnered with counties in \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/03/22/author-of-utah-bill-to-help-advance-coal-through-oakland-dismisses-air-quality-concerns/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Utah\u003c/a> that planned to move millions of tons of coal and petroleum coke, an oil refinery byproduct, by rail to the Oakland facility and then ship the products to Asia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suit alleges that the ban violates the Constitution's commerce clause, various federal laws regulating interstate commerce and hazardous materials, and the city's 2013 \u003ca href=\"http://www2.oaklandnet.com/oakca1/groups/ceda/documents/report/oak055211.pdf\">development agreement\u003c/a> that Oakland struck with Tagami.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his ruling last week, Chhabria announced he would hear evidence this week only on the breach of contract claim in Tagami's suit and consider the constitutional and federal law issues later, \"if necessary.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Tagami's complaint states the Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal would transfer bulk commodities that could include coal, his company's original development agreement with the city never mentions coal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agreement does, however, state the city has the right to apply its own regulations adopted after the agreement was signed if there is “substantial evidence” the project would place nearby residents in a “condition substantially dangerous to their health or safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>How “substantial” the danger of coal dust is to the West Oakland community will be at the crux of the trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>West Oakland has a disproportionately high rate of \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/06/28/oakland-city-council-votes-to-block-coal-shipments-through-port/\">respiratory illness\u003c/a> and other physical ailments linked to its close proximity to the Port of Oakland, as well as truck and rail traffic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/06/24/study-backs-oaklands-case-for-blocking-coal-terminal/\"> September 2015 report by Tagami's firm\u003c/a> said the $260 million facility would minimize pollution by using covered rail cars, underground transfer compartments and enclosed conveyor systems for moving coal from trains to ships.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawyers hired by Oakland city officials argued in court last Wednesday that the proposed technologies are either ineffective or not even in use by the industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The disagreement over potential health and safety controls was aired during the hearing, with Judge Chhabria expressing skepticism about the technology outlined by Tagami's attorney, Robert Feldman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The judge acknowledged the dangers of coal dust and said the city has a right to “police” the health and safety of its residents. But he said he wants the city to provide more information demonstrating how substantial the danger is relative to other projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What seems to be missing is how big a deal is this,” said Chhabria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opponents of Tagami's project maintain no level of coal dust is acceptable to a community already suffering from heavy industrial pollution. The city cites several reports backing that assessment -- though the judge questioned the science behind one of them, an \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/06/24/study-backs-oaklands-case-for-blocking-coal-terminal/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">analysis\u003c/a> by Environmental Science Associates, which concluded the terminal would worsen air quality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Attorney General Xavier Becerra filed an \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/attachments/press_releases/Amicus%20Brief.pdf\">amicus brief\u003c/a> on behalf of the city citing West Oakland’s poor health outcomes, including high rates of asthma, congestive heart failure and shorter life expectancy rates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erica Maharg, an attorney with San Francisco Baykeeper, which is intervening on Oakland's side in the case, says she’s confident the city made a “well-grounded decision” to protect residents who are “already overburdened with pollution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trial is expected to last several days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[documentcloud url=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4351311-Oakland-Bulk-amp-Oversized-Terminal-v-City-of\" notes=\"true\" text=\"true\" search=\"true\" sidebar=\"true\" pdf=\"true\" responsive=\"true\" page=\"1\"]\u003c/p>\n\n",

Instead, Chhabria outlined the rules for a narrow and speedy bench trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Developer Phil Tagami brought \u003ca href=\"#obotsuit\">the suit\u003c/a> in December 2016 on behalf of one of his companies, \u003ca href=\"http://obotjv.com\">Oakland Bulk and Oversized Terminal LLC, \u003c/a> five months after the City Council passed the coal ban.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/06/28/oakland-city-council-votes-to-block-coal-shipments-through-port/\">council acted\u003c/a> after it learned that Tagami had partnered with counties in \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/03/22/author-of-utah-bill-to-help-advance-coal-through-oakland-dismisses-air-quality-concerns/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Utah\u003c/a> that planned to move millions of tons of coal and petroleum coke, an oil refinery byproduct, by rail to the Oakland facility and then ship the products to Asia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suit alleges that the ban violates the Constitution's commerce clause, various federal laws regulating interstate commerce and hazardous materials, and the city's 2013 \u003ca href=\"http://www2.oaklandnet.com/oakca1/groups/ceda/documents/report/oak055211.pdf\">development agreement\u003c/a> that Oakland struck with Tagami.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But he said he wants the city to provide more information demonstrating how substantial the danger is relative to other projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What seems to be missing is how big a deal is this,” said Chhabria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opponents of Tagami's project maintain no level of coal dust is acceptable to a community already suffering from heavy industrial pollution. The city cites several reports backing that assessment -- though the judge questioned the science behind one of them, an \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/06/24/study-backs-oaklands-case-for-blocking-coal-terminal/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">analysis\u003c/a> by Environmental Science Associates, which concluded the terminal would worsen air quality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Attorney General Xavier Becerra filed an \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/attachments/press_releases/Amicus%20Brief.pdf\">amicus brief\u003c/a> on behalf of the city citing West Oakland’s poor health outcomes, including high rates of asthma, congestive heart failure and shorter life expectancy rates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Erica Maharg, an attorney with San Francisco Baykeeper, which is intervening on Oakland's side in the case, says she’s confident the city made a “well-grounded decision” to protect residents who are “already overburdened with pollution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trial is expected to last several days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"info": "The MindShift podcast explores the innovations in education that are shaping how kids learn. Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
