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.",

You say ‘hey, that's interesting,' and you start doing research online and suddenly its 4am,\" John says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Migurski is with \u003ca href=\"http://stamen.com/\">Stamen Design\u003c/a> and John runs the blog \u003ca href=\"http://burritojustice.com/\">Burrito Justice\u003c/a>. In their spare time, they're trying to revive the \u003ca href=\"http://www.davidrumsey.com/luna/servlet/s/ph9896\">\u003cstrong>1905 Sanborn Maps\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>, the incredibly detailed fire insurance maps that were drawn just before the 1906 earthquake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over 700 of these maps show the businesses and buildings standing then. Many were destroyed by the massive fire that raged after the quake, but some remain today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"About 20th street, plus or minus a few blocks, is where everything burned down north of here,\" says John. \"With the Mission, it's incredible how much hasn't changed over the past 120 years.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The maps reveal historical oddities, like \u003ca href=\"http://burritojustice.com/2011/06/27/1905-sf-sanborn-maps-now-in-color/\">the railroad line\u003c/a> that went right through the Mission. Or businesses that have stayed roughly the same, like mortuaries or transit centers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The maps show a lot of horse and buggy shops that hoofed horses and fixed wagons. And you see these places turn into car and automotive shops by the 1950s,\" says John.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These maps once sat on a library shelf at the \u003ca href=\"http://sfpl.org/index.php?pg=0200002501\">San Francisco Public Library\u003c/a>, but recently the library partnered with the \u003ca href=\"http://www.davidrumsey.com/\">David Rumsey Map Collection\u003c/a> to scan them in high-resolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Migurski says new technology means they can be used in the real world again. \"I think the new place we're at is that we're all carrying around devices in our pockets that are good enough to do this on.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_37250\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 600px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/08/LeviStrauss.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-37250\" title=\"LeviStrauss\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/08/LeviStrauss.jpg\" alt=\"Map\" width=\"600\" height=\"326\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Levi Strauss & Co. building in 1905 on the corner of Mission and Fremont.

That ability to type in your present day address and find out that your street was named something else and you live in what used to be a brothel or something,\" says Migurski.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with hundreds of maps, it's no simple task. So they built an \u003ca href=\"http://sanborn.maptcha.org/\">\u003cstrong>online tool\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> and asked the public to help them \"geo-rectify\" the maps. \"The tool presents a user with the old map and today's map and they help do a rough positioning of the old map. The street widths are often not to scale, but user can rotate it to match today's satellite map.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, almost all the maps have been placed. \"We've got a lot of map nerd friends and so it didn't take very long,\" Migurski says. (\u003ca href=\"http://sanborn.maptcha.org/\">\u003cstrong>Check out the result\u003c/strong>s\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Migurski says the idea is to connect people to their neighborhoods in a new way. \"I think it's that ability to put everything into the same digital space and to be able to wind time forward and wind time backward that really animates me about this,\" says Migurski.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Sanborn company created fire insurance maps after the fire as well, which Migurski and John are also interested in digitizing. \"It'll be shocking to see once we get the 1915 maps done to compare them,\" John says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stories behind the maps are John's motivation. \"It's about context. A hundred years ago there were people running around, going to work and coming home. And you can figure out where they worked and where they lived, where they had their beer and the brewery they drank it from. It gives you context for the neighborhood you live in.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

In their spare time, they're trying to revive the \u003ca href=\"http://www.davidrumsey.com/luna/servlet/s/ph9896\">\u003cstrong>1905 Sanborn Maps\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>, the incredibly detailed fire insurance maps that were drawn just before the 1906 earthquake.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over 700 of these maps show the businesses and buildings standing then. Many were destroyed by the massive fire that raged after the quake, but some remain today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"About 20th street, plus or minus a few blocks, is where everything burned down north of here,\" says John. \"With the Mission, it's incredible how much hasn't changed over the past 120 years.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The maps reveal historical oddities, like \u003ca href=\"http://burritojustice.com/2011/06/27/1905-sf-sanborn-maps-now-in-color/\">the railroad line\u003c/a> that went right through the Mission. Or businesses that have stayed roughly the same, like mortuaries or transit centers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The maps show a lot of horse and buggy shops that hoofed horses and fixed wagons. And you see these places turn into car and automotive shops by the 1950s,\" says John.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These maps once sat on a library shelf at the \u003ca href=\"http://sfpl.org/index.php?pg=0200002501\">San Francisco Public Library\u003c/a>, but recently the library partnered with the \u003ca href=\"http://www.davidrumsey.com/\">David Rumsey Map Collection\u003c/a> to scan them in high-resolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Migurski says new technology means they can be used in the real world again. \"I think the new place we're at is that we're all carrying around devices in our pockets that are good enough to do this on.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_37250\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 600px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/08/LeviStrauss.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-37250\" title=\"LeviStrauss\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/08/LeviStrauss.jpg\" alt=\"Map\" width=\"600\" height=\"326\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Levi Strauss & Co. building in 1905 on the corner of Mission and Fremont. Credit: San Fransico Public Library\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Since the maps are on separate pages, Migurski and John want to piece them together, so anyone can search. \"That overlay is what we're looking for. That ability to type in your present day address and find out that your street was named something else and you live in what used to be a brothel or something,\" says Migurski.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with hundreds of maps, it's no simple task. So they built an \u003ca href=\"http://sanborn.maptcha.org/\">\u003cstrong>online tool\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> and asked the public to help them \"geo-rectify\" the maps. \"The tool presents a user with the old map and today's map and they help do a rough positioning of the old map. The street widths are often not to scale, but user can rotate it to match today's satellite map.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, almost all the maps have been placed. \"We've got a lot of map nerd friends and so it didn't take very long,\" Migurski says. (\u003ca href=\"http://sanborn.maptcha.org/\">\u003cstrong>Check out the result\u003c/strong>s\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Migurski says the idea is to connect people to their neighborhoods in a new way. \"I think it's that ability to put everything into the same digital space and to be able to wind time forward and wind time backward that really animates me about this,\" says Migurski.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Sanborn company created fire insurance maps after the fire as well, which Migurski and John are also interested in digitizing. \"It'll be shocking to see once we get the 1915 maps done to compare them,\" John says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stories behind the maps are John's motivation. \"It's about context. A hundred years ago there were people running around, going to work and coming home. And you can figure out where they worked and where they lived, where they had their beer and the brewery they drank it from. It gives you context for the neighborhood you live in.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

To the Bay Area Rapid Transit, by performing this action you have not only threatened your citizens’ safety, but you have also performed an act of censorship.

This \u003ca href=\"http://www.aclu.org/blog/author/Rebecca-Farmer,-ACLU-of-Northern-California\">post\u003c/a> by Rebecca Farmer of the ACLU of Northern California also speaks to that point of view.

San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The answer may seem surprising, but that’s exactly what happened yesterday evening. The Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) asked wireless providers to halt service in four stations in San Francisco to prevent protestors from communicating with each other. The action came after BART notified riders that there might be demonstrations in the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All over the world people are using mobile devices to organize protests against repressive regimes, and we rightly criticize governments that respond by shutting down cell service, calling their actions anti-democratic and a violation of the rights to free expression and assembly. Are we really willing to tolerate the same silencing of protest here in the United States?\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>BART director Lynette Sweet has also \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/bart-police-shooting/story/bart-director-cell-phone-shutdown-didnt/\">criticized\u003c/a> the action. State Senator and San Francisco mayoral candidate Leland Yee issued a \u003ca href=\"http://dist08.casen.govoffice.com/index.asp?Type=B_PR&SEC=%7BEFA496BC-EDC8-4E38-9CC7-68D37AC03DFF%7D&DE=%7BD416EB51-FA70-4B15-9C20-2AC9F2F1FFC9%7D\">statement\u003c/a> that he was “shocked that BART thinks they can use authoritarian control tactics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Update 1:10 p.m.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a news teleconference this afternoon, a reporter insinuated that the \u003ca href=\"http://www.techspot.com/news/45075-hackers-target-government-website-in-protest-release-user-accounts.html\">attack\u003c/a> on myBART should have been easy to detect, and asked when was the last time BART’s web security had been audited. Johnson told the reporter to file a public records act request, and said, “I want to reiterate we’re the victims here.” A debate then ensued on BART’s culpability in the breach of private user information. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Listen below:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In part, the quandary is linked to the California Constitution's exclusion of \"urgency statutes\" (which go into effect immediately and require a supermajority legislative vote) and those \"providing for appropriations.\" Until Prop 25 lowered the budget vote in the Legislature, both seemed to apply to the state's annual fiscal plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Before Proposition 25,\" the opinion letter states, \"the referendum was applicable only to statutes that did not go into effect immediately.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But now, write legislative attorneys, the budget can no longer be considered exempt from referendum because Prop 25 didn't explicitly say so. And while the constitution doesn't expressly put a statute on hold once a referendum has qualified for the ballot, Legislative Counsel says the courts have nonetheless operated on that assumption.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This debate has been largely theoretical up until now. But news that online giant Amazon \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/capitalnotes/2011/07/11/amazon-tax-referendum-filed/#more-9578\">submitted a referendum\u003c/a> and that they appear to have the \u003ca href=\"http://www.fresnobee.com/2011/07/16/2466310_strategists-flock-to-looming-amazon.html\">financial and political steam\u003c/a> needed to gather 504,760 valid voter signatures by September 27, qualifying it for the next statewide ballot, makes it very real.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the Legislature's legal beagles are right, the clearing of that hurdle would suspend the law until the day after voters keep it in place or toss it out. The concluding thoughts of their new opinion letter state that:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \"Thus, in the case of a statute, such as AB1X 28, that has gone into immediate effect pursuant to Proposition 25, the proponent of a referendum measure would have 90 days to circulate a petition for signatures and submit the petition for certification, just as with any other statute. During that 90-day period, the statute would remain in effect and be operative, as provided by its terms. However, if the referendum were certified...the statute immediately would be stayed and would remain stayed until an election is held for the referendum measure.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Note that the passage above does not allow Amazon and other online retailers to thumb their noses at the new state law in the interim, though they've clearly seemed to say that's \u003ca href=\"http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2388003,00.asp\">what they'll do\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meantime, the state Board of Equalization is scheduled to discuss implementation of the new law at a meeting here in Sacramento tomorrow morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One final, and fascinating, point: at the same time the Amazon tax referendum is on the streets for signatures, a bill awaits action by Governor Jerry Brown to cancel the February 2012 presidential primary, moving the race for the White House back to the Golden State's regularly scheduled primary in June. That would mean, if the Amazon tax referendum qualifies and this legal opinion is accurate, the law would be suspended for more than eight months until the June election... thus costing the state budget money on which it's counting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats, who argued the cancellation of the February primary would save the state money, may now not be so thrilled. Meantime, one of the opponents of nixing the February election \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sacbee.com/capitolalertlatest/2011/07/california-presidential-primary-june-2012-assembly-bill-80.html\">quoted during floor debate\u003c/a> as saying so: Sen.

In part, the quandary is linked to the California Constitution's exclusion of \"urgency statutes\" (which go into effect immediately and require a supermajority legislative vote) and those \"providing for appropriations.\" Until Prop 25 lowered the budget vote in the Legislature, both seemed to apply to the state's annual fiscal plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Before Proposition 25,\" the opinion letter states, \"the referendum was applicable only to statutes that did not go into effect immediately.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But now, write legislative attorneys, the budget can no longer be considered exempt from referendum because Prop 25 didn't explicitly say so. And while the constitution doesn't expressly put a statute on hold once a referendum has qualified for the ballot, Legislative Counsel says the courts have nonetheless operated on that assumption.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This debate has been largely theoretical up until now. But news that online giant Amazon \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/capitalnotes/2011/07/11/amazon-tax-referendum-filed/#more-9578\">submitted a referendum\u003c/a> and that they appear to have the \u003ca href=\"http://www.fresnobee.com/2011/07/16/2466310_strategists-flock-to-looming-amazon.html\">financial and political steam\u003c/a> needed to gather 504,760 valid voter signatures by September 27, qualifying it for the next statewide ballot, makes it very real.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the Legislature's legal beagles are right, the clearing of that hurdle would suspend the law until the day after voters keep it in place or toss it out. The concluding thoughts of their new opinion letter state that:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \"Thus, in the case of a statute, such as AB1X 28, that has gone into immediate effect pursuant to Proposition 25, the proponent of a referendum measure would have 90 days to circulate a petition for signatures and submit the petition for certification, just as with any other statute. During that 90-day period, the statute would remain in effect and be operative, as provided by its terms. However, if the referendum were certified...the statute immediately would be stayed and would remain stayed until an election is held for the referendum measure.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Note that the passage above does not allow Amazon and other online retailers to thumb their noses at the new state law in the interim, though they've clearly seemed to say that's \u003ca href=\"http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2388003,00.asp\">what they'll do\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meantime, the state Board of Equalization is scheduled to discuss implementation of the new law at a meeting here in Sacramento tomorrow morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One final, and fascinating, point: at the same time the Amazon tax referendum is on the streets for signatures, a bill awaits action by Governor Jerry Brown to cancel the February 2012 presidential primary, moving the race for the White House back to the Golden State's regularly scheduled primary in June. That would mean, if the Amazon tax referendum qualifies and this legal opinion is accurate, the law would be suspended for more than eight months until the June election... thus costing the state budget money on which it's counting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats, who argued the cancellation of the February primary would save the state money, may now not be so thrilled. Meantime, one of the opponents of nixing the February election \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sacbee.com/capitolalertlatest/2011/07/california-presidential-primary-june-2012-assembly-bill-80.html\">quoted during floor debate\u003c/a> as saying so: Sen. Anderson, who requested the legal opinion and now may be happy his position didn't carry the day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Follow John Myers on \u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/kqed_capnotes\">Twitter\u003c/a> or at \u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/kqed_capnotes\">Capital Notes\u003c/a>\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
