It’s because of this deadly combination of aggressive driving, speeding, larger, heavier vehicles and more traffic. It’s turned little streets into ones where someone could die tomorrow.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those problems are especially concerning in the area of this week’s deadly crash on Parnassus, where neighbors said large trucks often drive through the hilly, residential streets on their way to and from a construction site at UC San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A construction worker who asked not to be named confirmed that the dump truck involved in the crash was contracted to remove dirt from the ongoing hospital project site at Parnassus and Hill Point Avenue.

While other owners bought the name and online services, Wheeler said she and a team of about 15 former Annie’s employees plan to continue the legacy started by Annie Hayes three decades ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s such a lovely expression of the joy that [Hayes] imparted on everybody who walked through these gates, and all we can hope to do is do right by that legacy, continue it on inside of this space, and provide further inspiration to people,” Wheeler said. “And continue to fill Bay Area gardens with the plants that have really defined gardening and horticulture in the broader Bay Area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wheeler was one of a few employees held over after former owner Sarah Hundley announced earlier this month that she would close Annie’s due to medical issues.

While other owners bought the name and online services, Wheeler said she and a team of about 15 former Annie’s employees plan to continue the legacy started by Annie Hayes three decades ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s such a lovely expression of the joy that [Hayes] imparted on everybody who walked through these gates, and all we can hope to do is do right by that legacy, continue it on inside of this space, and provide further inspiration to people,” Wheeler said. “And continue to fill Bay Area gardens with the plants that have really defined gardening and horticulture in the broader Bay Area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wheeler was one of a few employees held over after former owner Sarah Hundley announced earlier this month that she would close Annie’s due to medical issues. Multiple former employees, however, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12007947/richmond-nursery-employees-allege-owners-bullying-abrupt-closure\">told KQED\u003c/a> that since Hundley took over the nursery from Hayes in 2021, she had berated and bullied managers as business went downhill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Price said she had evidence that, under past administrations, the office covered up its practice of excluding Black and Jewish jurors from death penalty cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What the public should know is that this is a sign apparently that we must be getting close to uncovering the role that Ms. O’Malley played as the former leader of this office when the prosecutorial misconduct actually was taking place,” Price said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price revealed a 2004 note from a former district attorney’s office employee, which she said shows that Morris Jacobson — then a senior prosecutor in the office and now an Alameda County Superior Court judge — covered up the misconduct, going “to great lengths to distract the courts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesperson for O’Malley, who served as district attorney from 2009 to January 2023, said in a statement that she was not the district attorney when the alleged misconduct occurred.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These false or misleading allegations by [Pamela] Price demonstrate my point that Price is unqualified to hold public office,” O’Malley told KQED via email. “Price is dishonest. She manufacturers cocktails of misinformation that deliberately mix falsehoods with a dash of data with the intent to deceive. [Price] will pay a price for her deceptions on election day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price was ordered by a federal judge to review Alameda County \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11983705/allegations-of-prosecutorial-bias-spark-review-of-death-penalty-convictions-in-alameda-county\">death penalty cases\u003c/a> in April after evidence was found indicating that the district attorney’s office may have systematically excluded Black and Jewish jurors in the case of Ernest Dykes, who is still on death row for the 1993 killing of a 9-year-old boy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amid the investigation, Price said she found a note suggesting Jacobson and other office employees attempted to distract from allegations made by whistleblower Jack Quatman, a former capital trial prosecutor. He signed a declaration saying he and others routinely struck Black women and Jewish people from juries in death penalty cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The note reads: “[Jacobson] saying he would give us direction. Wants to find dirt on Quatman.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='pamela-price']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was written in a meeting led by Jacobson preparing for an evidentiary hearing in 2004 over the case of Fred Freeman, in which Quatman was a prosecutor. Freeman was convicted of murder in 1987 and died of natural causes in 2009 while on death row.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Prosecutors have special duties as ministers of justice, not simply to secure a conviction, but to uphold the Constitution, which guarantees the right to a fair trial and to be judged by a jury of one’s peers, regardless of race, religion or any other considerations such as sexual orientation,” Price said during the press conference.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price and O’Malley have sparred for years. Price ran an unsuccessful campaign to unseat O’Malley in 2018 and beat out her deputy, Terry Wiley, with 53% of the vote in 2022.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s accused O’Malley of creating a “culture of fear,” not pursuing prosecutorial misconduct and leaving the office in “disarray.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O’Malley said Wednesday that Price had used the office improperly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She uses it to intimidate,” O’Malley said, announcing her endorsement of the recall. “Of course, she takes any chance to criticize me erroneously for things that I didn’t do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether or not Price will remain in office and continue to lead this investigation will be up to voters on Nov. 5.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Esto se debe a que cuando se registre para votar en línea, la oficina electoral de su condado solicitará electrónicamente una copia de la firma que el DMV tiene actualmente de usted, y esta información se actualiza regularmente.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para tranquilizarse aún más, debe saber que California no es un estado de “coincidencia exacta” y no exige que las firmas de los votantes repliquen al 100% la firma que está archivada.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>¿Y si no sé cuál es la firma “correcta” con la que debo firmar el sobre?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Si realmente le preocupa que la firma de su sobre no coincida con la firma con la que está registrado para votar, existen dos soluciones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Primero, si es el 21 de octubre o antes, \u003ca href=\"https://registertovote.ca.gov/es-mx\">puede volver a registrarse para votar con su firma actual\u003c/a>, para asegurarse de que el estado tiene la firma más reciente en sus archivos.

The nonprofit’s chief operating and information officer Donna LaSala said its work has a “special sauce” that helps people not just move around more but get off the streets for good, and also serves to revitalize the neighborhood, which has become increasingly fraught in recent years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Cecil said all the time, ‘We got to be for the people, feet in the street,’” LaSala told KQED. “And so what we did was we launched an ambassador program to bring those feet in the street and bring our walk-in center out into the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yes, we’re out there cleaning the neighborhood — almost as an excuse to be there and to build the trust and to engage with folks,” she continued. “Our ultimate goal is to create a relationship so we can get them to trust us so that we can bring them into services.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GLIDE’s seven community ambassadors have lived experiences that make it easier for them to connect with potential clients, and understand which resources to offer and how.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are these people,” said Roberts, who grew up in Reno, Nevada, where he said he experienced a lot of problems similar to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11997174/sfs-top-district-5-candidates-outline-bold-plans-to-tackle-drug-crisis-in-tenderloin\">those the Tenderloin is facing\u003c/a>.

Esto se debe a que se esperan fuertes vientes y bajos niveles de humendad en la región, dos factores que aumentan el riesgo de incendios forestales. Por su parte, el Servicio Meteorológico Nacional \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/NWSBayArea/status/1853395160652304771\">ha emitido una advertencia de bandera roja\u003c/a>, lo cual representa un riesgo elevado de incendios en 8 de los 9 condados del Área de la Bahía.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Según PG&E, las zonas donde hay mayor riesgo de apagones son los cerros de los condados de Alameda, Contra Costa, Napa, Santa Clara, Solano y Sonoma. Las montañas de Santa Cruz y otras áreas donde se suele ver incendios, como el condado de Butte, también pueden verse afectadas por apagones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Durante la temporada de incendios forestales, hay varias razones por las que se pueden haber apagones.\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003cbr>\nIr a:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"#apagon\">¿Cómo preparo mi hogar para un apagón de PG&E?\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/1950931/map-pge-power-outages\">Mapa en tiempo real de los apagones de PG&E\u003c/a> (en inglés)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Las alertas de bandera roja, especialmente cuando se emiten sobre extensiones grandes, también pueden llevar a las compañías eléctricas a planificar cortes de electricidad para evitar que las líneas dañadas provoquen incendios. Dichos cortes de energía planificados serán determinados por su compañía de servicios públicos o por el operador de la red eléctrica. Siga leyendo para saber si PG&E tiene previsto cortarle la luz y cómo puede prepararse para estar sin electricidad durante varias horas, o días.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>¿Cómo podré saber sobre un apagón por seguridad pública en mi área?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Se supone que las compañías de servicios públicos deben avisar a los socorristas de un posible corte de suministro entre 48 y 72 horas antes del corte, y a los clientes que se hayan registrado para recibir alertas entre 24 y 48 horas antes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Regístrese para recibir notificaciones directamente de PG&E\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para ser notificado de un corte planificado en su área, o lo que PG&E llama un “apagon por seguridad pública” (o PSPS por sus siglas en inglés), usted puede:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.pge.com/es/account/manage-my-account.html\">Actualice su información de contacto en línea\u003c/a> con PG&E, o llame al (866) 743-6589 para actualizar su información por teléfono y solicitar recibir notificaciones.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Visite \u003ca href=\"http://pge.com/myalerts\">pge.com/myalerts\u003c/a>, donde también puede crear una cuenta de PG&E en línea, o llame al (800) 743-5000 o al Servicio de Relevo de California al 711.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>PG&E indica que puede optar por recibir las alertas en uno de los 16 idiomas disponibles: inglés, español, mandarín, cantonés, tagalo, punyabí y farsi. También hay notificaciones generales en el lenguaje de signos americano.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Además de la(s) alerta(s) inicial(es), PG&E también debe enviarle mensajes de seguimiento algunas horas antes de que comience el corte, y nuevamente durante el mismo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Verifique en línea la información sobre cortes de electricidad de PG&E\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si no desea recibir notificaciones, también puede informarse en línea sobre los cortes de energía de PG&E en su sitio web, para ver las actualizaciones más recientes sobre cualquier corte de energía planeado cerca de usted.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"apagon\">\u003c/a>¿Cómo prepararse para un apagón?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Tras una alerta sobre un posible apagón, PG&E señala que el “objetivo de la empresa es \u003ca href=\"https://www.pge.com/assets/pge/docs/outages-and-safety/outage-preparedness-and-support/your-guide-to-public-safety-power-shutoffs.pdf\">restablecer el suministro en un plazo de 24 horas después de que hayan pasado las condiciones secas y ventosas\u003c/a>” (enlace sólo en inglés). Pero si el apagón afecta a un gran número de clientes, puede tomar varios días para que la empresa de servicios haga revisiones de seguridad para que se regrese la electricidad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En algunos casos, es mejor quedarse con amigos o familia durante los apagones para compartir recursos. Si usted necesita electricidad por razones médicas, planificar con cuales familiares o amigos puede quedarse durante un apagón prolongado.

Ese incendio fue causado por las líneas eléctricas de PG&E en medio de fuertes vientos y condiciones de sequía. Para protegerse contra nuevos incendios forestales igualmente devastadores y nuevas responsabilidades, en 2019 PG&E comenzó a realizar cortes de energía preventivos cuando las condiciones son excepcionalmente peligrosas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>También en 2019, la Comisión de Servicios Públicos de California (o CPUC, por sus siglas en inglés) aprobó normas sobre cómo \u003ca href=\"https://docs.cpuc.ca.gov/PublishedDocs/Published/G000/M339/K524/339524880.PDF\">las principales empresas de servicios públicos del estado deben cortar la energía de forma preventiva\u003c/a> (PDF) en momentos de alto peligro de incendio. Sin embargo, algunas empresas de servicios públicos, como San Diego Gas and Electric, habían estado cortando la energía para ayudar a prevenir incendios desde hace años.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿En qué se diferencian los cortes de los apagones rotativos?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>A veces, los californianos también se quedan sin electricidad debido a la sobrecarga del sistema.

Ese incendio fue causado por las líneas eléctricas de PG&E en medio de fuertes vientos y condiciones de sequía. Para protegerse contra nuevos incendios forestales igualmente devastadores y nuevas responsabilidades, en 2019 PG&E comenzó a realizar cortes de energía preventivos cuando las condiciones son excepcionalmente peligrosas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>También en 2019, la Comisión de Servicios Públicos de California (o CPUC, por sus siglas en inglés) aprobó normas sobre cómo \u003ca href=\"https://docs.cpuc.ca.gov/PublishedDocs/Published/G000/M339/K524/339524880.PDF\">las principales empresas de servicios públicos del estado deben cortar la energía de forma preventiva\u003c/a> (PDF) en momentos de alto peligro de incendio. Sin embargo, algunas empresas de servicios públicos, como San Diego Gas and Electric, habían estado cortando la energía para ayudar a prevenir incendios desde hace años.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿En qué se diferencian los cortes de los apagones rotativos?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>A veces, los californianos también se quedan sin electricidad debido a la sobrecarga del sistema.
