"bio": "Sasha Khokha is the host of \u003cem>The California Report's \u003c/em> weekly magazine program, which takes listeners on sound-rich excursions to meet the people that make the Golden State unique -- through audio documentaries and long-form stories. As \u003cem>The California Report's\u003c/em> Central Valley Bureau Chief based in Fresno for nearly a dozen years, Sasha brought the lives and concerns of rural Californians to listeners around the state. Her reporting helped expose the hidden price immigrant women janitors and farmworkers may pay to keep their jobs: sexual assault at work. It inspired two new California laws to protect them from sexual harassment. She was a key member of the reporting team for the Frontline film \u003cem>Rape on the Night Shift, \u003c/em>which was nominated for two national Emmys. Sasha has also won a national Edward R. Murrow and a national PRNDI award for investigative reporting, as well as multiple prizes from the Society for Professional Journalists. Sasha is a proud alum of the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism and Brown University and a member of the South Asian Journalists Association.",

She has no other choice but to take the public bus to a library to get her homework done. Her family doesn’t have internet access, and her high school’s library closes early. The bus comes only once an hour, so if she misses it, she has to wait in the searing heat for the next one. Here’s an excerpt of Karla's interview with her:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cb>How does it feel to have to get on the bus and go to where you need to after a long day?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>ROSY MENDEZ\u003c/b>: It’s exhausting, because I have to go all the way over there, wait a couple hours, get home, eat, then be able to do all of my homework if I don’t have time to finish it. And then I end up going to bed around 10, 11. It’s exhausting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>In what ways do you feel like the service could be improved for all these young people who use the bus?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>MENDEZ\u003c/b>: They could improve on the way that they manage the schedule so there are more buses. For me, every hour is better than having to wait three.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>How do you feel like the public transportation in the East Valley kind of decides what the future is for the youth in terms of economic opportunity, getting a job, going to school?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>MENDEZ\u003c/b>: Well, if the bus comes only once an hour or every three hours, it’s difficult to get to school or a job, or your work. It's just very stressful to fix your schedule and modify it to fit the bus schedule. If you aren’t early to where you need to go, you could get fired, or miss important things from school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>When you’re on the bus, when you’re zoning out and listening to music, what goes through your mind?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>MENDEZ\u003c/b>: I’m usually just thinking about my work, how am I going to get it done?\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>In the middle of their interview, the transmission overheats and the bus stalls. It starts back up again, but then has to stop for a long train at a railroad crossing and take a detour because of construction. All of that means it takes nearly 45 minutes to go just 5 miles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rosy is determined to make the bus journey, because she says doing her homework at the library is the only way for her to succeed in school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just want to do engineering, 'cuz I know in my culture, women don’t really do that kind of stuff, so I kind of want to break that barrier,” Rosy tells Karla. “My plan is to be able to go to College of the Desert, the local community college, and then transfer to San Diego State University.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11110998\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11110998 size-full\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov.jpg\" alt='Rosy Mendez in her improv class at Desert Mirage High School. “I love photography and drama,” she says. “But my dream is to become an engineer.\"' width=\"1920\" height=\"1236\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov-400x258.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov-800x515.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov-1180x760.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov-960x618.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rosy Mendez in her improv class at Desert Mirage High School.

Some buses come only once every three hours. And some bus stops have no benches, no shade, while summer temperatures here can sizzle past 120 degrees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We finally get to the library, where Rosy takes out her ruler, pencil and the iPad she’s borrowing from school, to get going on her homework. I ask her what motivates her to take all these extra steps to succeed in school, to find things like internet, air conditioning, a quiet place to work. Things so many young people in California just take for granted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just want to help out my family, get a good job once I graduate and get my degree,” says Rosy. \"They’re the ones who keep me going.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the end of a long day riding the bus, I ask Karla what she learned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We met people who, no matter what time they have to wake up, no matter what sacrifices they have to make, they’re going to get that bus, and they’re gonna go where they need to go,” she tells me. \"Nothing’s impossible.

When she was a baby, her own mom -- then a 16-year-old herself -- lugged her on the bus to public high school, sometimes walking 15 minutes in the heat to get to the bus stop. As Karla grew up, her mom vowed never to have her daughter rely on the public bus, because it comes so infrequently and takes so long to get places.

She has no other choice but to take the public bus to a library to get her homework done. Her family doesn’t have internet access, and her high school’s library closes early. The bus comes only once an hour, so if she misses it, she has to wait in the searing heat for the next one. Here’s an excerpt of Karla's interview with her:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cb>How does it feel to have to get on the bus and go to where you need to after a long day?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>ROSY MENDEZ\u003c/b>: It’s exhausting, because I have to go all the way over there, wait a couple hours, get home, eat, then be able to do all of my homework if I don’t have time to finish it. And then I end up going to bed around 10, 11. It’s exhausting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>In what ways do you feel like the service could be improved for all these young people who use the bus?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>MENDEZ\u003c/b>: They could improve on the way that they manage the schedule so there are more buses. For me, every hour is better than having to wait three.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>How do you feel like the public transportation in the East Valley kind of decides what the future is for the youth in terms of economic opportunity, getting a job, going to school?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>MENDEZ\u003c/b>: Well, if the bus comes only once an hour or every three hours, it’s difficult to get to school or a job, or your work. It's just very stressful to fix your schedule and modify it to fit the bus schedule. If you aren’t early to where you need to go, you could get fired, or miss important things from school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>When you’re on the bus, when you’re zoning out and listening to music, what goes through your mind?\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>MENDEZ\u003c/b>: I’m usually just thinking about my work, how am I going to get it done?\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>In the middle of their interview, the transmission overheats and the bus stalls. It starts back up again, but then has to stop for a long train at a railroad crossing and take a detour because of construction. All of that means it takes nearly 45 minutes to go just 5 miles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rosy is determined to make the bus journey, because she says doing her homework at the library is the only way for her to succeed in school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just want to do engineering, 'cuz I know in my culture, women don’t really do that kind of stuff, so I kind of want to break that barrier,” Rosy tells Karla. “My plan is to be able to go to College of the Desert, the local community college, and then transfer to San Diego State University.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11110998\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11110998 size-full\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov.jpg\" alt='Rosy Mendez in her improv class at Desert Mirage High School. “I love photography and drama,” she says. “But my dream is to become an engineer.\"' width=\"1920\" height=\"1236\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov-400x258.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov-800x515.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov-1180x760.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/09/RosyImprov-960x618.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rosy Mendez in her improv class at Desert Mirage High School.

Some buses come only once every three hours. And some bus stops have no benches, no shade, while summer temperatures here can sizzle past 120 degrees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We finally get to the library, where Rosy takes out her ruler, pencil and the iPad she’s borrowing from school, to get going on her homework. I ask her what motivates her to take all these extra steps to succeed in school, to find things like internet, air conditioning, a quiet place to work. Things so many young people in California just take for granted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I just want to help out my family, get a good job once I graduate and get my degree,” says Rosy. \"They’re the ones who keep me going.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the end of a long day riding the bus, I ask Karla what she learned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Anyone can use the service, but Scoop specifically contracts with cities, counties and businesses to make it easier and cheaper for employees to participate.

"content": "\u003cp>Cell service could be coming soon to one of the last places in the truly civilized world that still lacks it: San Francisco Muni's tunnels and underground stations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's the bottom line of a proposal announced Wednesday under which BART, which finished \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Muni-tunnels-still-have-no-cell-service-4295270.php\" target=\"_blank\">installing cell service\u003c/a> in its tunnels and the Transbay Tube in 2010, will partner with Muni to extend coverage to the city-run transit system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plan would allow BART to negotiate with cellular carriers to install equipment in the Muni tunnels and underground stations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mobile service for Muni's underground passengers has been promoted as a safety enhancement -- allowing passengers freer communications in emergencies -- as well as a convenience for those wanting to tell their bosses and dates they'll be late because of a delayed train.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Muni has said in the past it simply didn't have the money to install an underground cellular network. 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",
