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.",

They're also present, in somewhat subtler ways, in the legal conflicts over California's Proposition 8 and the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). Both are now before the U.S. Supreme Court and will be heard next month, and both will ultimately be resolved within the evolving legal views on homosexuality of federal courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89233\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2013/02/achurchdivided1-300x195.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89233\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2013/02/achurchdivided1-300x195.jpg\" alt=\"The Rev.

Attorneys challenging the measure showed video tapes of one proponent (Hak-Shing William Tam) testifying during pre-trial discovery that Prop. 8 \"will cause states one-by-one to fall into Satan's hands.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judge Vaughn Walker ultimately ruled that Prop. 8 violated the 14th Amendment's guarantees of due process and equal protection under the law, and that the state has no rational basis for preventing same-sex couples from marrying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Moral disapproval alone is an improper basis on which to deny rights to gay men and lesbians,\" he wrote. \"The evidence shows conclusively that Proposition 8 enacts, without reason, a private moral view that same-sex couples are inferior to opposite-sex couples.\"\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In current briefs filed with the Supreme Court in the Prop. 8 case \u003ca href=\"http://www.supremecourt.gov/docket/DOMPRP8.aspx\">(Hollingsworth v. Perry\u003c/a>) the measure's proponents downplay the religious aspect of their opposition to same-sex marriage. Instead they focus on procreation and childrearing as California's rational basis for limiting marriage to one man and one woman. They site literature and research (disputed by Prop. 8 opponents) asserting that children do better when raised by one biological mother and father together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A myriad of \u003ca href=\"http://www.americanbar.org/publications/preview_home/12-144.html\">amicus briefs\u003c/a> have been filed in support of Prop. 8 by religious organizations ranging from Catholics for the Common Good to the Coalition of African American Pastors.

Texas\u003c/a>\u003c/em>) striking down an anti-sodomy law in Texas, Justice Anthony Kennedy, writing for the majority, referred to how historic condemnation of homosexual conduct has \"been shaped by religious beliefs, conceptions of right and acceptable behavior, and respect for traditional family.\" He goes on to quote an earlier decision (\u003ca href=\"http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/91-744.ZS.html\">Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pa v. Casey\u003c/a>): \"Our obligation is to define the liberty of all, not to mandate our moral code.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters of DOMA and Prop. 8 note that \u003cem>Lawrence\u003c/em> referred to criminalizing private, consensual conduct between two adults. Prop. 8 and DOMA, they note, does not criminalize same-sex marriage, but rather upholds traditional laws on marriage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But opponents of both laws hope Justice Kennedy and at least four of his colleagues will use Kennedy's earlier opinions in \u003cem>Lawrence\u003c/em> and another historic pro-gay rights decision -- \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/94-1039.ZO.html\">Romer v.

They're also present, in somewhat subtler ways, in the legal conflicts over California's Proposition 8 and the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). Both are now before the U.S. Supreme Court and will be heard next month, and both will ultimately be resolved within the evolving legal views on homosexuality of federal courts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89233\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2013/02/achurchdivided1-300x195.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89233\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2013/02/achurchdivided1-300x195.jpg\" alt=\"The Rev.

Perry\u003c/a>) the measure's proponents downplay the religious aspect of their opposition to same-sex marriage. Instead they focus on procreation and childrearing as California's rational basis for limiting marriage to one man and one woman. They site literature and research (disputed by Prop. 8 opponents) asserting that children do better when raised by one biological mother and father together.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A myriad of \u003ca href=\"http://www.americanbar.org/publications/preview_home/12-144.html\">amicus briefs\u003c/a> have been filed in support of Prop. 8 by religious organizations ranging from Catholics for the Common Good to the Coalition of African American Pastors.

Texas\u003c/a>\u003c/em>) striking down an anti-sodomy law in Texas, Justice Anthony Kennedy, writing for the majority, referred to how historic condemnation of homosexual conduct has \"been shaped by religious beliefs, conceptions of right and acceptable behavior, and respect for traditional family.\" He goes on to quote an earlier decision (\u003ca href=\"http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/91-744.ZS.html\">Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pa v. Casey\u003c/a>): \"Our obligation is to define the liberty of all, not to mandate our moral code.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters of DOMA and Prop. 8 note that \u003cem>Lawrence\u003c/em> referred to criminalizing private, consensual conduct between two adults. Prop. 8 and DOMA, they note, does not criminalize same-sex marriage, but rather upholds traditional laws on marriage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But opponents of both laws hope Justice Kennedy and at least four of his colleagues will use Kennedy's earlier opinions in \u003cem>Lawrence\u003c/em> and another historic pro-gay rights decision -- \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/94-1039.ZO.html\">Romer v.

Authorities didn't immediately give more details on the two people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Game wardens from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife who were part of the search detail spotted the purple Nissan that had been reported stolen going in the opposite direction and gave chase, department spokesman Lt.

The driver looked like Dorner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They lost the purple car after it passed a school bus and turned onto a side road, but two other Fish and Wildlife patrols turned up that road a short time later, and were searching for the car when a white pickup truck sped erratically toward the wardens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He took a close look at the driver and realized it was the suspect,\" Foy said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dorner, who allegedly stole the pickup truck at gunpoint after crashing the first car, rolled down a window and opened fire on the wardens, striking a warden's truck more than a dozen times.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the wardens shot at the suspect as he rounded a curve in the road. It's unclear if he hit him, but the stolen pickup careened off the road and crashed in a snow bank.

Authorities didn't immediately give more details on the two people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Game wardens from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife who were part of the search detail spotted the purple Nissan that had been reported stolen going in the opposite direction and gave chase, department spokesman Lt.

It's unclear if he hit him, but the stolen pickup careened off the road and crashed in a snow bank.

If you ask the Brown administration, the work is done – and it’s time for courts to \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/health/la-ed-prisons-healthcare-jerry-brown-20130111,0,925681.story\">let go of the reform process\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the federal judges who have been overseeing the system have yet to relent. Now there’s a new secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation — a man who has functioned as a consultant to and a critic of California prisons – \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdcr.ca.gov/About_CDCR/Secretary.html\">Jeffrey Beard\u003c/a>. (He still needs to be confirmed by the State Senate.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beard was the chief of the department of corrections in Pennsylvania when he first became involved with California as an expert on a panel that advised prisons about recidivism (the technical term for former prisoners reoffending and ending back behind bars). That was 2006. Beard returned in 2008 to advise the three-judge panel of federal judges that’s been keeping a fire lit under the state to roll forward with reforms. Then in 2011, Beard began consulting for California directly. He estimates that he’s visited 20 California prison facilities over the years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I got a chance to ask him during an interview for \u003ca href=\"http://www.californiareport.org/archive/R201302040850/a\">The California Report\u003c/a> what he thinks has changed in the prison system. For one thing, 43,000 inmates have been either farmed out to private and out-of-state prisons or diverted to local lockups.\u003c!--more-->California prisons are running at about 150 percent of capacity — which is to say, still overcrowded, but not as much as they used to be. Nonetheless, federal judges have repeatedly insisted the state reduce the population to 137 percent of capacity. What’s the difference between those two levels of overcrowding? About 10,000 inmates, Beard says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the face of it, that sounds like a lot of prisoners, and Beard himself has called on California to reduce its population. So how does he find a way to agree with Governor Brown now? Beard says the judges need to let go of “design capacity” as their benchmark for determining how much overcrowding will allow for a constitutionally acceptable level of inmate health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nobody else in the country still talks about original design capacity,” Beard says. “They all talk about a rated capacity,” which is to say, taking into account adjustments made to facilities since they first opened. “California hasn’t been given credit for those changes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beard points out that about $2.5 billion dollars have been spent upgrading medical and mental health care facilities. “Those expenditures should cause your capacity ratings to change. I would contend the system isn’t at 150 percent of capacity, but might be closer to 137 percent of capacity – if you look at all the changes [California has] made to the system.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some of these new clinics aren’t actually open yet, and a lot of staff positions have yet to be filled. Is Beard counting chickens that have yet to hatch?\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> \u003cstrong>The system is providing a constitutional level of care, and if it’s doing that, it no longer needs federal oversight\u003c/strong>.” \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“Absolutely not!” he says. He acknowledges that a highly anticipated new mental health care facility in Stockton hasn’t opened yet, but says that other facilities have. “I’ve seen it. I’ve seen people getting the treatment,” he says. A licensed psychologist by trade, Beard thinks mental health care in California prisons is in a better state than medical care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that’s a rosier assessment than two court appointed monitors – Federal Receiver \u003ca href=\"www.latimes.com/health/la-me-ff-prisons-20130126,0,438990.story\">Clark Kelso\u003c/a> and Special Master \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-prisons-20130119,0,6228066.story\">Matthew Lopes\u003c/a> would offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prison suicide rates are climbing, for one. The Brown Administration argues that’s a \u003ca href=\"http://www.sacbee.com/2013/01/29/5150209/calif-gets-more-time-to-reduce.html#storylink=misearch\">misleading indicator\u003c/a>, but the jury is still out, and some wonder if getting free of court oversight has become the benchmark by which state prison officials define what constitutes acceptable care. Care that is constitutionally acceptable in that it does not constitute cruel and unusual punishment, as one recent commenter to KQED’s Forum program \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/KQEDForum\">noted\u003c/a>, is not necessarily \u003cem>good\u003c/em> care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The system is providing a constitutional level of care, and if it’s doing that, it no longer needs federal oversight,” Beard says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beard says California prison officials were understandably preoccupied with safety during the years of massive overcrowding, but now things are better.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As the population comes down, it becomes easier to manage the prisons, the prisons become less violent, and then you can begin focusing more on providing constructive programs that can help reduce recidivism,” he says. “I think that’s where the system is today. That’s why I’m here, because the system has reached a point where you can do something positive and constructive.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Now there’s a new secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation — a man who has functioned as a consultant to and a critic of California prisons – \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdcr.ca.gov/About_CDCR/Secretary.html\">Jeffrey Beard\u003c/a>. (He still needs to be confirmed by the State Senate.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beard was the chief of the department of corrections in Pennsylvania when he first became involved with California as an expert on a panel that advised prisons about recidivism (the technical term for former prisoners reoffending and ending back behind bars). That was 2006. Beard returned in 2008 to advise the three-judge panel of federal judges that’s been keeping a fire lit under the state to roll forward with reforms. Then in 2011, Beard began consulting for California directly. He estimates that he’s visited 20 California prison facilities over the years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I got a chance to ask him during an interview for \u003ca href=\"http://www.californiareport.org/archive/R201302040850/a\">The California Report\u003c/a> what he thinks has changed in the prison system. For one thing, 43,000 inmates have been either farmed out to private and out-of-state prisons or diverted to local lockups.\u003c!--more-->California prisons are running at about 150 percent of capacity — which is to say, still overcrowded, but not as much as they used to be. Nonetheless, federal judges have repeatedly insisted the state reduce the population to 137 percent of capacity. What’s the difference between those two levels of overcrowding? About 10,000 inmates, Beard says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the face of it, that sounds like a lot of prisoners, and Beard himself has called on California to reduce its population. So how does he find a way to agree with Governor Brown now? Beard says the judges need to let go of “design capacity” as their benchmark for determining how much overcrowding will allow for a constitutionally acceptable level of inmate health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

I would contend the system isn’t at 150 percent of capacity, but might be closer to 137 percent of capacity – if you look at all the changes [California has] made to the system.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some of these new clinics aren’t actually open yet, and a lot of staff positions have yet to be filled. Is Beard counting chickens that have yet to hatch?\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> \u003cstrong>The system is providing a constitutional level of care, and if it’s doing that, it no longer needs federal oversight\u003c/strong>.” \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“Absolutely not!” he says. He acknowledges that a highly anticipated new mental health care facility in Stockton hasn’t opened yet, but says that other facilities have. “I’ve seen it. I’ve seen people getting the treatment,” he says. A licensed psychologist by trade, Beard thinks mental health care in California prisons is in a better state than medical care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But that’s a rosier assessment than two court appointed monitors – Federal Receiver \u003ca href=\"www.latimes.com/health/la-me-ff-prisons-20130126,0,438990.story\">Clark Kelso\u003c/a> and Special Master \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-prisons-20130119,0,6228066.story\">Matthew Lopes\u003c/a> would offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prison suicide rates are climbing, for one. The Brown Administration argues that’s a \u003ca href=\"http://www.sacbee.com/2013/01/29/5150209/calif-gets-more-time-to-reduce.html#storylink=misearch\">misleading indicator\u003c/a>, but the jury is still out, and some wonder if getting free of court oversight has become the benchmark by which state prison officials define what constitutes acceptable care. Care that is constitutionally acceptable in that it does not constitute cruel and unusual punishment, as one recent commenter to KQED’s Forum program \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/KQEDForum\">noted\u003c/a>, is not necessarily \u003cem>good\u003c/em> care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The system is providing a constitutional level of care, and if it’s doing that, it no longer needs federal oversight,” Beard says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beard says California prison officials were understandably preoccupied with safety during the years of massive overcrowding, but now things are better.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As the population comes down, it becomes easier to manage the prisons, the prisons become less violent, and then you can begin focusing more on providing constructive programs that can help reduce recidivism,” he says. “I think that’s where the system is today. That’s why I’m here, because the system has reached a point where you can do something positive and constructive.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
