And the appearance of the remote control meant we no longer even had to get up to change the channel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even our thumb muscles have been given the day off since digital assistants like Siri gained the ability to write our text messages, he noted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All these things, combined with an automobile-driven, fast food culture, said Downs, have contributed to a national \u003ca href=\"http://www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/statistics/\">diabetes epidemic\u003c/a> and a stunning rise in \u003ca href=\"http://stateofobesity.org/obesity-rates-trends-overview/\" target=\"_blank\">obesity rates\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>We Need Stuff Like This \u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So how to remedy the roots of the unhealthy environments we've created?

One of the lab's initiatives: designing ways to feed people healthier diets through \u003ca href=\"http://web.mit.edu/jiw/www/MITCityFarm/\" target=\"_blank\">urban farms\u003c/a> that make use of city spaces.

Ellen Kaster, 24, is one of its trained volunteers. On a recent evening in San Francisco, she and her supervisor -- a social worker -- hunched over their laptops, answering texts from around the nation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"GcPkglXzvs6iXtVNQDC95peszX7pQA98\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Right now I have a texter who has been struggling with drug addiction and has gone through phases of being clean and relapsing,\" Kaster explains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The young man tells her he's cutting himself with a knife and is feeling suicidal. This is a \"code orange,\" which means Kaster's supervisor will monitor the conversation, and they'll call the police if the suicide threats intensify. Fortunately, the texter agrees to put the knife in a drawer, and he calms down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most of the text conversations last about an hour, Kaster says, which may seem strange to older generations. But it's pretty normal for young people to communicate this way, she says, especially when they're emotional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It can feel very vulnerable ... to actually dial a real phone and talk to somebody,\" Kaster says. \"There's something very impersonal about text that's very natural.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>'These Could Be Our Children'\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Inside the Golden Gate Bridge dispatch center, Bridge Patrol Capt. Lisa Locati thumbs through a binder full of photos of young people, reading off their ages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Sixteen, 22, 25 ... the ages here are just startling,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the Bridge Patrol's \"Be on the Lookout\" book. It's filled with printouts of Facebook pages. When concerned friends and family call because they fear a loved one has headed to the bridge to commit suicide, Locati's team, along with the California Highway Patrol, tries to find them before it's too late. The Facebook photos help them pick out faces on the crowded sidewalk, and they provide personal details that can help with a rescue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You want so much to make the connection and convince this person that dying is not the answer,\" Locati says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What really bothers Locati is how many are just kids, with little perspective on life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They got a bad grade in class. They broke up with a boyfriend or girlfriend. There's a lot of bullying going on in the age group, and that can be devastating to some,\" she says. \"It's very exhausting. These could be our children.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Golden Gate Bridge District has recorded more than 120 successful suicide interventions so far this year. But Locati says she could definitely use more staff -- there can be thousands of people on the bridge at one time, and she currently oversees 31 people. In the meantime, she hopes the text line will help them make even more interventions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When Crisis Text Line approached us, they had already had -- without any advertising -- texting conversations with people that have mentioned coming to the bridge to commit suicide,\" Locati says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Before we formed the partnership, we already had 94 conversations in which people have mentioned the Golden Gate Bridge,\" confirms Libby Craig, Bay Area director of Crisis Text Line. \"And we do have stories of people who were at the ledge and were back in their homes by the end of a conversation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at the Gamboas' home, Kymberlyrenee says she doesn't know whether her son, Kyle, would have texted the hotline had the signs been posted the day he jumped. But he was on his phone that morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"His last contact was on Facebook, and he texted,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She hopes if Kyle's friends will text a phone he hasn't answered in three years, maybe kids on the bridge will text for help -- and someone will answer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Editor's Note: If you or someone you know is at risk for suicide, please seek help.\u003cbr>\nFor the Crisis Text Line in the Bay Area: Text BAY to 741741\u003cbr>\nFor the Crisis Text Line Nationwide: Text HELLO to 741741\u003cbr>\nFor the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: Call 1-800-273-8233\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

But it's pretty normal for young people to communicate this way, she says, especially when they're emotional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It can feel very vulnerable ... to actually dial a real phone and talk to somebody,\" Kaster says. \"There's something very impersonal about text that's very natural.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>'These Could Be Our Children'\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Inside the Golden Gate Bridge dispatch center, Bridge Patrol Capt. Lisa Locati thumbs through a binder full of photos of young people, reading off their ages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Sixteen, 22, 25 ... the ages here are just startling,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the Bridge Patrol's \"Be on the Lookout\" book. It's filled with printouts of Facebook pages. When concerned friends and family call because they fear a loved one has headed to the bridge to commit suicide, Locati's team, along with the California Highway Patrol, tries to find them before it's too late. The Facebook photos help them pick out faces on the crowded sidewalk, and they provide personal details that can help with a rescue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You want so much to make the connection and convince this person that dying is not the answer,\" Locati says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What really bothers Locati is how many are just kids, with little perspective on life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They got a bad grade in class. They broke up with a boyfriend or girlfriend. There's a lot of bullying going on in the age group, and that can be devastating to some,\" she says. \"It's very exhausting. These could be our children.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Golden Gate Bridge District has recorded more than 120 successful suicide interventions so far this year. But Locati says she could definitely use more staff -- there can be thousands of people on the bridge at one time, and she currently oversees 31 people. In the meantime, she hopes the text line will help them make even more interventions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When Crisis Text Line approached us, they had already had -- without any advertising -- texting conversations with people that have mentioned coming to the bridge to commit suicide,\" Locati says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Before we formed the partnership, we already had 94 conversations in which people have mentioned the Golden Gate Bridge,\" confirms Libby Craig, Bay Area director of Crisis Text Line. \"And we do have stories of people who were at the ledge and were back in their homes by the end of a conversation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at the Gamboas' home, Kymberlyrenee says she doesn't know whether her son, Kyle, would have texted the hotline had the signs been posted the day he jumped. But he was on his phone that morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"His last contact was on Facebook, and he texted,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She hopes if Kyle's friends will text a phone he hasn't answered in three years, maybe kids on the bridge will text for help -- and someone will answer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

If this happens, how will people pay for food and shelter?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Silicon Valley, a growing number of those in the tech sector believe that one solution may be the universal basic income.

He took me to \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/futureofyou/2015/08/18/san-franciscos-newest-fast-food-healthy-cheap-and-served-by-robots/\">eatsa\u003c/a>, a healthy fast-food joint, to show me why many in tech are coming to this conclusion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The restaurant is in the SoMa neighborhood of San Francisco. If Apple opened a fast-food place, I imagine it would look sort of like eatsa. The space is bright and the decor is sparse in that trendy modern way. But when we enter the restaurant, I notice right away there are no cashiers to take our order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s part of the magic here,” Chellam says. “We’re not going to order from anybody. We’re going to order from computers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chellam and I walk up to one of the iPads mounted on the wall. The first step is to swipe your credit card, which Chellam does.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now what are we going to eat?” Chellam asks after his credit card is accepted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eatsa’s thing is \u003ca href=\"https://www.eatsa.com/menu\">quinoa bowls\u003c/a>, and you can see photos of its offerings on the screen. I go for the burrito quinoa bowl and Chellam orders the kale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yeah, I’m in San Francisco. I feel like I need to do with kale,” he says. “But oh, I don’t want that cheese.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A couple of clicks later and we’re done. The process is pretty simple and intuitive if you know your way around an iPad. When our food is ready, it appears in one of the cubbyholes lining a wall of the restaurant. Each cubby has a translucent blue cover, and when your name appears on it, that means your order is up. Our food pops up in cubbyhole No. 3.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are about 15 to 20 customers in here the day I visit, mostly young tech workers from the neighborhood. I see just one eatsa employee in the restaurant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have this gut sense from having been in the valley for a while now that there will be a coming wave of automation that will get rid of a lot of jobs,” Chellam says, back at his office in downtown San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's unclear whether technology will eventually reduce the total number of jobs in the country. While technological advances make some jobs obsolete, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/business/2015/aug/17/technology-created-more-jobs-than-destroyed-140-years-data-census\">past \u003c/a>has shown that tech has also created new opportunities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFQw3zmTBWY&w=560&h=315]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But advancements in artificial intelligence are intensifying this debate. In Silicon Valley, there are lots of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/18/technology/on-wheels-and-wings-artificial-intelligence-swarms-silicon-valley.html?_r=0\">experiments in automation\u003c/a>. There's the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfchronicle.com/business/article/Robot-retail-is-here-8148122.php\">robot at Lowe’s\u003c/a> home improvement store in Sunnyvale that checks inventory. There’s the “robot butler” working at a hotel in Cupertino.

The process is pretty simple and intuitive if you know your way around an iPad. When our food is ready, it appears in one of the cubbyholes lining a wall of the restaurant. Each cubby has a translucent blue cover, and when your name appears on it, that means your order is up. Our food pops up in cubbyhole No. 3.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are about 15 to 20 customers in here the day I visit, mostly young tech workers from the neighborhood.

"content": "\u003cp>Yahoo said hackers stole personal information from 500 million of its user accounts, a massive security breakdown it attributed to a “state-sponsored actor.” The breach disclosed Thursday, marking the latest setback for the beleaguered internet company, dates back to late 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s when high-tech thieves hacked into Yahoo’s data centers, the company said. But Yahoo only recently discovered the break-in as part of an ongoing internal investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stolen data include users’ names, email addresses, telephone numbers, birthdates, hashed passwords and the security questions — and answers — used to verify an account holder’s identity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last month, the tech site Motherboard reported that a hacker who uses the name “Peace” boasted that he had account information belonging to 200 million Yahoo users and was trying to sell the data on the web.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yahoo \u003ca href=\"https://help.yahoo.com/kb/account/SLN27925.html?impressions=true\">recommends\u003c/a> that users change their passwords if they haven’t done so since 2014. The Sunnyvale company said its investigation so far hasn’t found any evidence that information about users’ bank accounts or credit and debit cards was swiped in the hacking attack. It said it has “no evidence” that the attacker is still in Yahoo’s network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>News of the security lapse could cause some people to have second thoughts about relying on Yahoo’s services, raising a prickly issue for the company as it tries to sell its digital operations to Verizon Communications for $4.8 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That deal, announced two months ago, isn’t supposed to close until early next year. That leaves Verizon with wiggle room to renegotiate the purchase price or even back out if it believes the security breach will harm Yahoo’s business. That could happen if users shun Yahoo or file lawsuits because they’re incensed by the theft of their personal information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Verizon said it still doesn’t know enough about the Yahoo break-in to assess the potential consequences. “We will evaluate as the investigation continues through the lens of overall Verizon interests, including consumers, customers, shareholders and related communities,” the company said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\n",

You can see why someone might feel better hiring a regular employee rather than a freelancer to take care of an elder loved one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But other companies moving from contractors to employees offer much more standard app-based gig work like on-demand food delivery or help shipping a package. For them, hiring employees boils down to economics. In the long run, these companies believe it will be cheaper to hire workers rather than rely on contractors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We’ve got two audio pieces about the shift some gig companies are making. The first is a story about a company called Trusted, which offers on-demand child care and decided to hire all of its employees from the start. To follow up, we spoke with the CEO of Shyp, an on-demand delivery company that used to have the gig worker model but has now hired its employees. First, the story of Trusted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Economic Argument\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The nugget of the Trusted story is that the decision to hire workers is an economic one. The CEO of Trusted, Anand Iyer, calculated he would actually save money by hiring employees instead of getting gig workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s the logic. In the short term, employees cost a business more. Companies have to pay higher taxes and offer benefits like workers’ compensation. But Iyer says employees tend to stick around longer and fewer quit. There is less “churn,” or worker turnover, which means less money spent on finding and training contractors to replace the ones who stop working.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Iyer ran the numbers and found that employees would save him money in the long run. “The math,” Iyer says, “totally checks out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘The math totally checks out.’ \u003ccite>Anand Iyer, CEO of Trusted\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Gig companies are realizing that employees can save them money. Other new businesses one might assume would go the gig-worker route have come to the same conclusion. There’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/28/magazine/managed-by-qs-good-jobs-gamble.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this story about Q\u003c/a>, the office cleaning and management company. And \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/10/technology/a-start-up-shies-away-from-the-gig-economy.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here’s a piece\u003c/a> about a real estate company called Redfin that hires its agents in an industry where they are usually independent and earn commissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Employee Vs. Contractor\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some gig workers are railing against how little they are paid and the way they are treated by their companies. Lawsuits have\u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/apr/13/uber-lawsuits-619-million-ride-hailing-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> piled up\u003c/a> against companies like Uber, TaskRabbit and others. One of the main issues is that workers believe they are being misclassified as independent contractors when they’re really employees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is an important distinction. As employees, workers have access to more benefits like workers’ comp and potentially a company health care plan. They also pay less in taxes. Independent contractors face higher tax rates. They can lower how much they pay by working some deduction magic come tax time, but that itself takes time and work. For gig workers, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/04/15/uber-lyft-gig-workers-face-tax-problems/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">it can be especially complex\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Palak Shah is from the National Domestic Workers Alliance and oversees the \u003ca href=\"http://www.goodworkcode.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Good Work Code\u003c/a>. It’s a set of guidelines for treating workers well in the digital age. Shah says employment is generally a better deal for workers than gigs are, but she says handing out W-2s does not automatically fix the generally precarious position of workers in the gig economy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The W-2 status can serve as a really important floor,” Shah says, “but there’s a lot of other dimensions like safety and shared prosperity and whether the voices of workers are heard.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shah says workers in the gig economy often aren’t getting a big share of the prosperity, have limited voice and suffer a large amount of instability. The rules can change overnight for gig workers, and they can start taking home less income or have less flexibility. See \u003ca href=\"http://ssl.marketplace.org/2016/05/10/world/instacart-workers-feel-sting-pay-restructure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this story about Instacart\u003c/a> workers for details. The unpredictability for gig workers is the flip side of doing a job for companies where you can work just by switching on an app.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Switching Gears\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now Trusted is no Uber. It’s infinitesimal by comparison. It has a little seed money and is just getting started in the Bay Area. It remains unclear if its model will make it successful or allow the kind of growth that has made other gig companies so attractive to investors. But at the same time, some of those gig companies that drew investment have now ditched the gig model altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shyp and Sprig are two examples of companies that began with an “Uber for X” gig workforce model and now hire their workers. Shyp is an on-demand parcel shipping service and Sprig does food delivery. We talked with Shyp’s CEO, Kevin Gibbon, about why the company made the shift to employees and what that has meant for his business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibbon ends the interview by bringing up another economic worry with the contractor model: lawsuits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibbon says investors are starting to question whether a new venture can handle the kind of employment lawsuits Uber is battling. Does the new company have the funds to be sued over something like misclassifying workers?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gig companies have to make the argument that the short-term economic return of a flexible, contingent workforce is worth the cost of lawsuits, churn and looming uncertainty over the legality of the gig labor model. Gibbon thinks that is a harder sell to investors than it used to be a few years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibbon says the employee model works for Shyp in part because it allows for better customer service. Workers can be trained to give clients what they want. Even with something as simple as shipping a package, this is vital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, Gibbon has this advice for new companies offering on-demand services: Consider actually hiring your workers. It will cost more in the short term, but it could end up saving you a bunch of money in the long run.\u003c/p>\n\n",

There is less “churn,” or worker turnover, which means less money spent on finding and training contractors to replace the ones who stop working.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Iyer ran the numbers and found that employees would save him money in the long run. “The math,” Iyer says, “totally checks out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘The math totally checks out.’ \u003ccite>Anand Iyer, CEO of Trusted\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Gig companies are realizing that employees can save them money. Other new businesses one might assume would go the gig-worker route have come to the same conclusion. There’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/28/magazine/managed-by-qs-good-jobs-gamble.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this story about Q\u003c/a>, the office cleaning and management company. And \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/10/technology/a-start-up-shies-away-from-the-gig-economy.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here’s a piece\u003c/a> about a real estate company called Redfin that hires its agents in an industry where they are usually independent and earn commissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Employee Vs. Contractor\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some gig workers are railing against how little they are paid and the way they are treated by their companies. Lawsuits have\u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/apr/13/uber-lawsuits-619-million-ride-hailing-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> piled up\u003c/a> against companies like Uber, TaskRabbit and others. One of the main issues is that workers believe they are being misclassified as independent contractors when they’re really employees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is an important distinction. As employees, workers have access to more benefits like workers’ comp and potentially a company health care plan. They also pay less in taxes. Independent contractors face higher tax rates. They can lower how much they pay by working some deduction magic come tax time, but that itself takes time and work. For gig workers, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/04/15/uber-lyft-gig-workers-face-tax-problems/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">it can be especially complex\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Palak Shah is from the National Domestic Workers Alliance and oversees the \u003ca href=\"http://www.goodworkcode.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Good Work Code\u003c/a>. It’s a set of guidelines for treating workers well in the digital age. Shah says employment is generally a better deal for workers than gigs are, but she says handing out W-2s does not automatically fix the generally precarious position of workers in the gig economy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The W-2 status can serve as a really important floor,” Shah says, “but there’s a lot of other dimensions like safety and shared prosperity and whether the voices of workers are heard.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shah says workers in the gig economy often aren’t getting a big share of the prosperity, have limited voice and suffer a large amount of instability. The rules can change overnight for gig workers, and they can start taking home less income or have less flexibility. See \u003ca href=\"http://ssl.marketplace.org/2016/05/10/world/instacart-workers-feel-sting-pay-restructure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this story about Instacart\u003c/a> workers for details. The unpredictability for gig workers is the flip side of doing a job for companies where you can work just by switching on an app.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Switching Gears\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now Trusted is no Uber. It’s infinitesimal by comparison. It has a little seed money and is just getting started in the Bay Area. It remains unclear if its model will make it successful or allow the kind of growth that has made other gig companies so attractive to investors. But at the same time, some of those gig companies that drew investment have now ditched the gig model altogether.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shyp and Sprig are two examples of companies that began with an “Uber for X” gig workforce model and now hire their workers. Shyp is an on-demand parcel shipping service and Sprig does food delivery. We talked with Shyp’s CEO, Kevin Gibbon, about why the company made the shift to employees and what that has meant for his business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibbon ends the interview by bringing up another economic worry with the contractor model: lawsuits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibbon says investors are starting to question whether a new venture can handle the kind of employment lawsuits Uber is battling. Does the new company have the funds to be sued over something like misclassifying workers?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gig companies have to make the argument that the short-term economic return of a flexible, contingent workforce is worth the cost of lawsuits, churn and looming uncertainty over the legality of the gig labor model. Gibbon thinks that is a harder sell to investors than it used to be a few years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gibbon says the employee model works for Shyp in part because it allows for better customer service. Workers can be trained to give clients what they want. Even with something as simple as shipping a package, this is vital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The new plan would get past that hurdle by having BART take the lead on the project and getting the telecoms who would benefit from the new service to pay for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposal was unveiled by Board of Supervisors President London Breed, Nick Josefowitz, one of San Francisco's representatives on the BART board of directors, and Ed Reiskin, head of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency. The SFMTA board will consider the plan at its meeting next Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If approved, BART would begin negotiations with telecoms that use its \"neutral host\" underground cellular network. Those firms include all the big carriers, including Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Metro PCS. Construction of the new Muni network would take 12 to 18 months after an agreement is reached, BART and the city say, with all costs borne by the carriers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To read the statements from Supervisor Breed et al. in the Wednesday press release, officials see this as a done deal. To wit:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“My office has been working closely with Muni and BART for a couple years to bring cell service to Muni subway riders,” said Board President London Breed. “Our plan not only improves the rider experience; it will actually make money for Muni. It’s truly a win-win, and I want to thank Director Josefowitz and all the BART staff, Sonali Bose and Ed Reiskin at SFMTA, and my Chief of Staff Conor Johnston.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have heard from our riders who have asked for cell service in the subway for some time, so we are working to deliver this amenity in partnership with BART,” said SFMTA Director of Transportation, Ed Reiskin. “Providing cell service within the Muni Metro will help improve communications to our Muni riders, can assist in emergency situations, and will give the riding public an additional service they want.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Today is about governments working together to make common sense improvements to peoples' lives,” said BART Director Nick Josefowitz. “I'm proud to have helped put together this collaboration that will have BART infrastructure and know-how put to work helping Muni riders on their daily commutes.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\n",
