"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.",

At stake are Kavanaugh’s views on abortion rights, gun control and whether presidents can be protected from prosecution while in office. Meanwhile, an explosive op-ed by an unnamed senior official in the Trump administration claims the president’s own staff members have been trying to stop him from acting in “a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Guests:\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">KQED government and politics reporter\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Professor Rory Little, \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">UC Hastings College of the Law\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sean Walsh, \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Wilson Walsh Consulting\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Safe Injection Sites\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">San Francisco could become the first U.S. city to facilitate the use of intravenous drugs under medical supervision.

The ad features former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick and says: “Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.” Kaepernick triggered a furious backlash from President Trump and others in 2016 when he refused to stand during the national anthem in a move to raise awareness of police violence against African-Americans. The response to this week’s ad campaign has been similarly polarized.

At stake are Kavanaugh’s views on abortion rights, gun control and whether presidents can be protected from prosecution while in office. Meanwhile, an explosive op-ed by an unnamed senior official in the Trump administration claims the president’s own staff members have been trying to stop him from acting in “a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Guests:\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">KQED government and politics reporter\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Professor Rory Little, \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">UC Hastings College of the Law\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sean Walsh, \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Wilson Walsh Consulting\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Safe Injection Sites\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">San Francisco could become the first U.S. city to facilitate the use of intravenous drugs under medical supervision.

The ad features former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick and says: “Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.” Kaepernick triggered a furious backlash from President Trump and others in 2016 when he refused to stand during the national anthem in a move to raise awareness of police violence against African-Americans. The response to this week’s ad campaign has been similarly polarized.

It came after an obscure three-person state panel indicated last month that it would lease the public beach for Mavericks only if women and men are awarded the same prize money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The waves do not discriminate,” the staff of the State Lands Commission wrote in \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/wp-content/uploads/StateLands_Mavericks.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an unusually blistering report\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Male athletes are surfing and competing on the same waves as the female athletes. There doesn’t appear to be any reasonable justification to treat prize compensation differently.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission—which includes prominent Democratic politicians Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom and Controller Betty Yee—hasn’t yet voted on the issue because the league \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/08/24/equal-pay-or-no-one-plays-big-wave-women-draw-line-in-the-sand-at-mavericks/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pulled\u003c/a> its application for the lease when the report came out. But the panel was likely to approve the equal pay requirement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe there ought to be gender equity with respect to the purposes of any use of our state lands,” Yee said in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom also supported the requirement, said his chief of staff, Rhys Williams: “A lease application that doesn’t reflect equal pay isn’t going to fly with him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now that the league has crafted a plan to pay men and women equally, it will likely resubmit its application for Mavericks, which is typically held between October and March when the waves swell to more than 25 feet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/08/01/women-of-mavericks-find-themselves-a-dollar-short-of-the-men/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the original plan\u003c/a>, the prize purse for women was set at $44,400 while the prize purse for men was $106,600. The purse was to be divided among all competitors in each division, with $15,000 for the woman winning first place and $25,000 for the man earning first place. Second-and third-place prizes were to have even greater gaps, with the women earning less than half of what men would. The league previously defended the plan as fair because the men’s division included more competitors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The league did not specify the prize purse or number of competitors under the new plan, saying only that it involved “equal prize money” for male and female athletes. It declined to answer questions for this article and, in a press release, cast its new arrangement as part of a “long-planned strategy to elevate women’s surfing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But women who have been advocating for equal pay for surfers said the change never would have come about without the government taking a stand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Said Sabrina Brennan of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.surfequity.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Committee for Equity in Women’s Surfing\u003c/a>: “It’s what gave us leverage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brennan is not a surfer but she sits on the board of the San Mateo County Harbor District, so she knows a little something about government approval processes. Her fight for women surfers began in 2015, when she learned Mavericks could take place only with a permit from the California Coastal Commission. At that time women weren’t allowed to compete in the event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s when I initially realized there was an opportunity to ask a state agency to intervene and add a condition on the permit that would require women be allowed to compete,” Brennan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission agreed, and in 2016 \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-mavericks-women-20161103-story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">required\u003c/a> Mavericks to include a heat for women. But the event hasn’t been held since then, due to a lack of ideal surf conditions and a change of ownership in the management of Mavericks. So this winter was set to be the first time women would compete at the event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the surf league sought a new round of government permits, Brennan began to focus her lobbying on the issue of equal pay. She organized some of the world’s top female surfers—including Valenti—to send letters to the Coastal and State Lands commissions asking that they require Mavericks to pay equal prize money. A lawyer volunteered to beef up their letters with citations to relevant civil rights cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s unfortunate that it took a tiny group of women athletes, an activist, an attorney and a couple state agencies to get them to do the right thing,” Brennan said after the league announced its new pay plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But, whatever. I’m just glad it happened.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CALmatters.org\u003c/a> is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

It declined to answer questions for this article and, in a press release, cast its new arrangement as part of a “long-planned strategy to elevate women’s surfing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But women who have been advocating for equal pay for surfers said the change never would have come about without the government taking a stand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Said Sabrina Brennan of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.surfequity.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Committee for Equity in Women’s Surfing\u003c/a>: “It’s what gave us leverage.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brennan is not a surfer but she sits on the board of the San Mateo County Harbor District, so she knows a little something about government approval processes. Her fight for women surfers began in 2015, when she learned Mavericks could take place only with a permit from the California Coastal Commission. At that time women weren’t allowed to compete in the event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s when I initially realized there was an opportunity to ask a state agency to intervene and add a condition on the permit that would require women be allowed to compete,” Brennan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission agreed, and in 2016 \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-mavericks-women-20161103-story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">required\u003c/a> Mavericks to include a heat for women. But the event hasn’t been held since then, due to a lack of ideal surf conditions and a change of ownership in the management of Mavericks. So this winter was set to be the first time women would compete at the event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the surf league sought a new round of government permits, Brennan began to focus her lobbying on the issue of equal pay. She organized some of the world’s top female surfers—including Valenti—to send letters to the Coastal and State Lands commissions asking that they require Mavericks to pay equal prize money. A lawyer volunteered to beef up their letters with citations to relevant civil rights cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s unfortunate that it took a tiny group of women athletes, an activist, an attorney and a couple state agencies to get them to do the right thing,” Brennan said after the league announced its new pay plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But, whatever. I’m just glad it happened.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

With the 2018 regular season set to begin on Thursday, the league and its players union remain locked in a stalemate over a controversial national anthem policy ratified by team owners in May. The policy gave players the option to stay in the locker room during the anthem, but required them to stand if on the field or face possible discipline by their teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The policy was put on hold in July, leaving the NFL without a resolution to what's become one of the most polarizing issues in sports. The player protests have drawn frequent criticism from President Trump, who in a speech \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/09/24/553214114/trump-embroiled-in-two-controversies-about-professional-sports-race-and-culture\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">last September\u003c/a> said, \"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field right now?' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an interview shortly after his protest began, \u003ca href=\"http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000691077/article/colin-kaepernick-explains-why-he-sat-during-national-anthem\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kaepernick told NFL media\u003c/a>, \"To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way.\" Kaepernick has not played in the NFL since parting ways with the 49ers at the end of the 2016 season. He alleges that the NFL colluded to deny him a contract as punishment for his role in the player protests. \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/08/31/643558384/nfl-arbitrator-moves-colin-kaepernicks-collusion-grievance-to-formal-hearing\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Last week\u003c/a>, an arbitrator ruled that his grievance against the league merits a formal hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NFL has yet to issue a response to the ad campaign, but some in the league have said they believe the protests have damaged the popularity of professional football. Nike, for its part, has previously said that it \"supports athletes and their right to freedom of expression on issues that are of great importance to our society.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 NPR.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>News of Kaepernick's role in the campaign comes at a delicate moment for the NFL. With the 2018 regular season set to begin on Thursday, the league and its players union remain locked in a stalemate over a controversial national anthem policy ratified by team owners in May. The policy gave players the option to stay in the locker room during the anthem, but required them to stand if on the field or face possible discipline by their teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The policy was put on hold in July, leaving the NFL without a resolution to what's become one of the most polarizing issues in sports. The player protests have drawn frequent criticism from President Trump, who in a speech \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/09/24/553214114/trump-embroiled-in-two-controversies-about-professional-sports-race-and-culture\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">last September\u003c/a> said, \"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a bitch off the field right now?' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an interview shortly after his protest began, \u003ca href=\"http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000691077/article/colin-kaepernick-explains-why-he-sat-during-national-anthem\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Kaepernick told NFL media\u003c/a>, \"To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way.\" Kaepernick has not played in the NFL since parting ways with the 49ers at the end of the 2016 season. He alleges that the NFL colluded to deny him a contract as punishment for his role in the player protests. \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/08/31/643558384/nfl-arbitrator-moves-colin-kaepernicks-collusion-grievance-to-formal-hearing\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Last week\u003c/a>, an arbitrator ruled that his grievance against the league merits a formal hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NFL has yet to issue a response to the ad campaign, but some in the league have said they believe the protests have damaged the popularity of professional football. Nike, for its part, has previously said that it \"supports athletes and their right to freedom of expression on issues that are of great importance to our society.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 NPR.

But some parents are looking for a more permanent solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They say no amount of fundraising will fix the fact that the cuts disproportionately impacted girls, and that all of this has unearthed a deeper problem. So, they’re turning to the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don't want to have to do it,” said Oakland parent Shumsha Hanif-Cruz, lamenting Oakland Unified School District's financial straits and emphasizing that she hopes to avoid a costly class action lawsuit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hanif-Cruz's 6th grade daughter was looking forward to playing golf at Skyline High School, just like her big sister had. So Hanif-Cruz paid attention when the district announced last week it was one of 10 sports on the chopping block.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She's a lawyer who quickly realized the cuts, which impacted nearly twice as many girls as boys, would likely violate\u003ca href=\"https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/docs/tix_dis.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Title IX, the federal anti-discrimination law.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said it isn’t just about the recent cuts -- it’s about what she believes they expose. “This has been an ongoing issue that just has not been addressed,” Hanif-Cruz said. “It's only being addressed because there was this budget deficit, and now we're all as a community able to see what probably has been going on for decades.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hanif-Cruz and other parents have turned to attorney Elizabeth Kristen, who is a Title IX expert at \u003ca href=\"https://legalaidatwork.org/staff/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Legal Aid at Work in San Francisco\u003c/a>, where she runs the Fair Play for Girls in Sports program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This to me is a clean and clear and blatant violation of Title IX,” Kristen says of OUSD's cuts to high school sports, “and they already had a problem.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kristen points to sports participation data collected by Oakland schools which she said shows boys have more athletic opportunities than girls. \u003ca href=\"http://oaklandtech.com/staff/ot-athletics/athletics-overview/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">At Oakland Tech\u003c/a>, for example, 52 percent of athletes are boys, while 48 percent are girls, despite girls making up more than half of the student population. \u003ca href=\"http://oaklandtech.com/staff/blog/2018/08/oakland-athletic-league-cuts/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">District-wide\u003c/a>, 54 percent of athletes were male last year, while 45 percent were female.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I realize they have this budget deficit,” Kristen said, “but balancing the budget on the backs of girls sends a terrible message. It tells girls they are second-class citizens,” And, she added, “It's against the law. This is a classic story of sex discrimination.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After looking at figures for last year’s participation, national Title IX expert \u003ca href=\"http://championwomen.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nancy Hogshead-Makar\u003c/a> agrees. “Before the cuts, girls already had fewer opportunities than boys did,” she said. “It’s 2018 and to not consider the fairness of cutting more girls' programs than boys' programs when girls already weren’t getting as much as boys were is tragic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hogshead-Makar also raises questions about the coach-to-athlete ratio for girls at district schools. \"It appears boys get far more coaches-per-athlete than girl do,\" she wrote in an email. \"There are also lots of men coaching girls, and very few women coaching boys.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hanif-Cruz and other parents expressed frustration and sadness at the position she and other Oakland parents find themselves in.

I hope it doesn’t come to that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Hanif-Cruz and other parents move ahead, Kristen said the first step would be to send a demand letter to the district with the intention of spurring negotiations about how to right the alleged Title IX violations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kristen has \u003ca href=\"https://legalaidatwork.org/releases/female-athletes-and-school-district-settle-title-ix-case-after-ninth-circuit-ruling/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">successfully sued districts\u003c/a> for Title IX violations in the past. She said she starts with a demand letter hoping to garner a district's cooperation, rather than end up in court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It really makes sense to try to resolve these things quickly,\" she said. \"High school is a fleeting time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ideally, Kristen said, a demand letter leads to an enforceable settlement agreement. \"We could go to court if they don't follow what they say they’re going to do,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The advantage of a formal legal process, Kristen said, is that it gives parents a seat at the table, allowing them to help shape the scope of any remedy, \"as opposed to letting it just play out the way it may or may not play out behind the scenes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My hope is that the district recognizes that its actions create the real threat of Title IX litigation,” Schreiber said, “and they take appropriate and immediate action to reconsider the decision.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this week, the district announced three fall sports, girls tennis, girls golf and girls lacrosse are coming back, thanks to donations of close to $40,000. That allows about 150 girls to keep playing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>OUSD spokesman John Sasaki said that helps balance the impact. “We’re certainly more fair than we were a couple days ago,” he said Monday at a press conference. The $250,000 donation from the Raiders will go a long way toward bringing back other sports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Kristen says reinstating programs temporarily through outside money does not solve the equity issue. \"The problem is the way that it has been packaged as a temporary solution and that girls' sports seem more contingent and less supported by the schools,\" she said. “They’ve sent a message to girls that they aren’t as important.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kristen and Hogshead-Makar point out that Title IX violations are common in high school athletics. \"It's actually rare for us to find a school where they do have parity for girls in sports even though this law has been around for such a long time,\" Kristen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as a longtime Oakland resident, Kristen said Oakland Unified's data is particularly frustrating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have a community that should be committed to equality for girls, so the fact that this has been going on under our noses for all this time is really disappointing.\" She added that in her experience, once she starts looking into a district, she \"usually finds these kinds of athletic participation gaps for girls are really the tip of the iceberg.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district declined to comment on the prospect of legal action.

You might be surprised to discover it started in \u003ca href=\"http://www.wfdf.org/history-stats/history-of-ultimate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New Jersey\u003c/a> rather than California. But California has a natural affinity for ultimate. In any given week, \u003ca href=\"http://pickupultimate.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pickupultimate.com\u003c/a> lists a couple dozen games on the Peninsula and in the South Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\u003cstrong>What is Ultimate Frisbee?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_(sport)#Rules\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ultimate\u003c/a> is the team sport version of Frisbee — and shares similarities with basketball, football and handball.\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>We went to check out one of Tawil’s games to get the lay of the land. Encinal Park is your basic neighborhood park, with green grass, a baseball diamond and picnic tables. It’s also within walking distance of corporate complexes for the likes of Apple, LinkedIn and Synopsis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You see a lot of people who are well into their Silicon Valley careers playing alongside young up-and-comers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But if we were hoping to break into the gilded set in Tawil’s group, we were disappointed. She did introduce me though to Andrew Zill, a chemist who works for Thermofisher Scientific. He is also owner and manager of the \u003ca href=\"https://theaudl.com/spiders\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">San Jose Spiders\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s a semi-professional ultimate team that plays in the \u003ca href=\"https://theaudl.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">American Ultimate Disc League\u003c/a> along with other teams like the \u003ca href=\"http://theaudl.com/flamethrowers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">San Francisco Flamethrowers\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4rq4Or4fY4]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I asked Zill if people approach him on or near the field, hoping to rub shoulders with someone rich and powerful, and got a big laugh.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think that’s necessarily people’s goal. I think it just happens,” he says. “People mostly play for fun. I think that’s for the best because you actually make a real friendly relationship with somebody.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zill introduced me to \u003ca href=\"https://lsvp.com/team/peter-nieh/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Peter Nieh\u003c/a>, an ultimate-playing venture capitalist who figures he may have missed a chance to invest early in Google because he was unaware he was playing with Google co-founder \u003ca href=\"https://www.forbes.com/profile/sergey-brin/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sergey Brin\u003c/a>, who is on a variety of Forbes’ lists because he’s, well, rich and powerful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Years passed, and Nieh attended a party at one of the world’s top ranked venture capital firms, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kleinerperkins.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kleiner Perkins\u003c/a>. It was the the kind of party where you look at everybody thinking “Do I know you? Should I know you?” Nieh spotted that guy he plays ultimate with — and lo and behold, it was Brin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even though he didn’t seem to want to talk to people, I probably should have reached out to him!” Nieh says, laughing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Another time, I was standing on the line of seven players before you kick off for the first point,” he says. “I’m just fumbling around with the Frisbee, and I turn it over, and it says ‘\u003ca href=\"https://www.forbes.com/profile/brian-acton/#636048295cfc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brian Acton\u003c/a>.’ You know, one of the co-founders of Whatsapp. I said to the guy next to me, ‘I didn’t know Brian Acton plays ultimate.’ The guy next to me says ‘Oh. He does play ultimate. He’s me.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Why ultimate?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In other parts of the business world, people schmooze on the golf course. It has a long history serving as a field of opportunity for business people trying to sidle up to a boss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/uKE1FwjcCE8\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps nobody in Silicon Valley has four hours to play 18 holes or even two hours to play nine. The average ultimate game lasts an hour and a half. But it’s also true most people in the Valley went to college, and ultimate is a popular college sport.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimate players can be very competitive, despite the fact much is made of the “spirit of the game,” a principle in ultimate that more or less means good sportsmanship. The ideal ultimate player resolves disagreements with opponents as she would with a friend, honest and amicable in both victory and defeat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11686845\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11686845\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-800x485.png\" alt=\"Venture capitalist Peter Nieh's profile on the website for Lightspeed Venture Partners.\" width=\"800\" height=\"485\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-800x485.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-160x97.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-1020x618.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-1200x728.png 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-1920x1164.png 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-1180x715.png 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-960x582.png 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-240x146.png 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-375x227.png 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Screen-Shot-2018-08-14-at-8.38.24-AM-520x315.png 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Venture capitalist Peter Nieh’s profile on the website for Lightspeed Venture Partners. \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of Lightspeed Venture Partners)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nieh says, “There’s that whole sort of thrill of winning together as a team, which you get to do when you’re in a start-up.

In fact, Lightspeed sponsored in the San Jose Spiders to raise its profile with would-be entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a blurred line between your professional life and your personal life. You know, some of my closest friends are people I do business with. It’s part of the job, and if you’re not of that mindset, you probably shouldn’t be a VC,” Nieh says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if Tawil wants to launch a start-up, she’s playing the right game. Although she might want to switch to a pickup game playing near where more VCs live: on the Peninsula, rather than in the South Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Or she might want to take up cycling\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There are a lot of \u003ca href=\"https://peopleforbikes.org/blog/doing-business-on-bikes-in-silicon-valley/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003ci>very important \u003c/i>\u003cem>people\u003c/em>\u003c/a> who cycle in packs, especially on the Peninsula.

I think it just happens,” he says. “People mostly play for fun. I think that’s for the best because you actually make a real friendly relationship with somebody.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zill introduced me to \u003ca href=\"https://lsvp.com/team/peter-nieh/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Peter Nieh\u003c/a>, an ultimate-playing venture capitalist who figures he may have missed a chance to invest early in Google because he was unaware he was playing with Google co-founder \u003ca href=\"https://www.forbes.com/profile/sergey-brin/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sergey Brin\u003c/a>, who is on a variety of Forbes’ lists because he’s, well, rich and powerful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Years passed, and Nieh attended a party at one of the world’s top ranked venture capital firms, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kleinerperkins.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kleiner Perkins\u003c/a>. It was the the kind of party where you look at everybody thinking “Do I know you? Should I know you?” Nieh spotted that guy he plays ultimate with — and lo and behold, it was Brin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even though he didn’t seem to want to talk to people, I probably should have reached out to him!” Nieh says, laughing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Another time, I was standing on the line of seven players before you kick off for the first point,” he says. “I’m just fumbling around with the Frisbee, and I turn it over, and it says ‘\u003ca href=\"https://www.forbes.com/profile/brian-acton/#636048295cfc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brian Acton\u003c/a>.’ You know, one of the co-founders of Whatsapp. I said to the guy next to me, ‘I didn’t know Brian Acton plays ultimate.’ The guy next to me says ‘Oh.

The average ultimate game lasts an hour and a half. But it’s also true most people in the Valley went to college, and ultimate is a popular college sport.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimate players can be very competitive, despite the fact much is made of the “spirit of the game,” a principle in ultimate that more or less means good sportsmanship.

The game is also very dynamic. It’s fast paced. There’s infinite avenues and dimensions to learn. So I think that all lends itself to people who are inclined to always be learning — doing it with a lot of energy and passion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If someone wants to sidle up to Nieh because of his fund, Lightspeed Venture Partners, he’s says he’s more than game to talk. In fact, Lightspeed sponsored in the San Jose Spiders to raise its profile with would-be entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a blurred line between your professional life and your personal life. You know, some of my closest friends are people I do business with. It’s part of the job, and if you’re not of that mindset, you probably shouldn’t be a VC,” Nieh says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if Tawil wants to launch a start-up, she’s playing the right game. Although she might want to switch to a pickup game playing near where more VCs live: on the Peninsula, rather than in the South Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Or she might want to take up cycling\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There are a lot of \u003ca href=\"https://peopleforbikes.org/blog/doing-business-on-bikes-in-silicon-valley/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u003ci>very important \u003c/i>\u003cem>people\u003c/em>\u003c/a> who cycle in packs, especially on the Peninsula.

They sat in circles, divided by age, and shouted out their names and which countries they were born in. “Guatemala,” “Afghanistan,” “Congo,” they announced.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some giggled and joked with their friends, while others sat quietly and waited their turn. This was the first day of soccer camp, an annual week-long program organized by Soccer Without Borders (SWB), and the kids were ready to jump into the game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Soccer Without Borders, an Oakland-based non-profit founded in 2006, uses soccer as a tool to help young refugees, asylees and newcomers make friends, gain confidence at school and build English language skills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Each summer more than 150 children between the ages of 5 and 20 participate in the camp. During the academic year, SWB also provides kids with after school club soccer teams at six East Bay middle schools and high schools. Since it first began, the organization has expanded to four other cities in the U.S. as well as Uganda and Nicaragua.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Ben Guicciardi, the organization’s founder and director of the Oakland program, newcomer youth need help with learning English, obtaining family stability and getting the chance to enjoy their adolescence. For many of them, especially older boys and unaccompanied minors, “there’s just not the opportunity to just get to be a kid,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But soccer is an accessible, low-cost and familiar way for these young people to connect with one another. “It’s also a common language,” said Guicciardi. The camp typically has kids from 20-30 different countries speaking languages ranging from Spanish to Dari to Korean. “It’s something that appeals to all of them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For 13-year-old Sohrab, who was born in Afghanistan and has been in the program for three years, SWB is about having fun and becoming comfortable with English. “When I came here first, I didn’t know how to speak English and everyone used to talk to me, make fun of me in the school,” he said, “Now, I’m happy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The program places an emphasis on inclusion and celebrating the cultures that each child brings with them. Creating a \"safe space\" is one of the five rules for soccer camp outlined in the introduction circle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I like this program because they know that you’re coming from other countries and they’re treating you like a friend, like a brother,” said Gerardo Mercado, a volunteer coach and graduate of the program, who immigrated from El Salvador in 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For others, SWB gives youth a place to be themselves and combat the isolation many feel upon arrival.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Saliem Fikadu, another camp volunteer and alum, who immigrated from Eritrea in 2014, said soccer helps her focus and gives her an outlet for frustrations in her life. “When you kick the ball, all your problems go away,” she said. “We're from different countries, we all have different stories, but in soccer we are the same.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11683983\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11683983\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/RS32085_SWB_10-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Carson McFadden, an Oakland program coordinator, welcomes the middle school girls' group.

Since it first began, the organization has expanded to four other cities in the U.S. as well as Uganda and Nicaragua.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Ben Guicciardi, the organization’s founder and director of the Oakland program, newcomer youth need help with learning English, obtaining family stability and getting the chance to enjoy their adolescence. For many of them, especially older boys and unaccompanied minors, “there’s just not the opportunity to just get to be a kid,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
