"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.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

She was the editor for Truth Be Told, an advice show for and by people of color. \r\n\r\nHer stories about race, space, and belonging were part of KQED's So Well Spoken project, which won RNDTA's Kaleidoscope award, honoring outstanding achievements in the coverage of diversity.\r\n\r\nPrior to joining KQED in 2015, Sandhya covered the 2012 presidential election from the swing state of Iowa for Iowa Public Radio. At KPBS in San Diego, she broke the story of a sexual harassment scandal that led to the mayor's resignation.\r\n\r\nShe got her start in radio working on documentaries about Oakland that investigated the high drop-out rate in public schools and mistrust between the police and the community.\r\n\r\nSandhya lives in Oakland and believes all stories are stories about power.",

Also, if it’s cold out, make sure you’re wearing layers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But biking in the rain is “not everyone’s cup of tea,” said Rik Panganiban, online learning manager for KQED Teach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you’re really uncomfortable, if you’re really cold, if you’re really nervous, you’re not going to bike well.

He was 62.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sherwen's voice became almost inextricable from the Tour de France and other major cycling events after a stellar career as a competitor. He rode in the Tour seven times during the 1970s and 1980s and finished five times. He won two British road-racing championships. But he was best known for his 33 years describing the world's most famous and grueling cycling competition. His partner for most of those July marathons was a fellow Briton, Phil Liggett.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I went to bed in Africa with a heavy heart last night feeling sadness like never before,\" Liggett wrote on Twitter. \"My team mate for 33 years was no longer with me. Your hundreds of messages showed how well @PaulSherwen was loved.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But these days, the \u003ca href=\"https://burningman.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">massive event\u003c/a> takes place outside Reno, Nevada. Almost 70,000 “Burners” are expected to convene in the dry alkali desert, or “playa,” along with their bicycles. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When it ends, most of the festival’s structures and artworks will be ritually burned, or dismantled and taken away. But bikes are one item that many participants don’t “pack out.” Year after year, organizers have had to repurpose, recycle or even throw away hundreds of abandoned or lost bikes.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This year, a shipment of those Burning Man bicycles ended up almost 400 miles south, in the farmworker town of Arvin, in California’s Central Valley.

They whizzed by on pink, black and green single-speed cruisers. “We’re going to go riding to a friend’s house,” a girl shouted joyfully after she got her bike. “To the store! To the school!

Some Burners are careless and overwhelmed, and just abandon their bikes. Others are flying home and don’t know what to do with them. And some simply lose their bikes in the chaos of 70,000 people trying to be everywhere at once.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Over the years, Burning Man volunteers have experimented with different ways to reuse the bikes. Some get recycled into the festival’s own bike-share pool. And others are used in art projects or donated to nonprofits like the Dolores Huerta Foundation. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The donated bikes will help the children exercise and be outdoors, said Elizabeth Martinez, who works on health issues for the Foundation. “In order for you to be healthy, you’ve got to eat healthy, you have to be active, and a lot of the times there’s barriers, especially in our little cities,” she said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Kern County, where Arvin is located, up to 10 percent of residents have been diagnosed with diabetes. County data show that Kern ranks near the top in California for its high rate of diabetes-related deaths. In Arvin, almost a quarter of the 20,000 residents live below the poverty line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But Martinez says the bike donation program is not just about promoting exercise. It’s also about giving kids a new way to be independent and a new skill. “We’re teaching them how to fix their bikes on their own,” she said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Overall, it seems like a win-win: Abandoned bikes are recycled for a good cause, in keeping with the Burner principle of civic responsibility. And yet some Burning Man representatives were reluctant to discuss the issue, even the donations. They are afraid Burners might leave even more bikes behind, with the assumption that volunteers will simply pass them along to charities. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rather, they want Burners to be responsible for their bikes and take them along when they go home. At the very least, Burners should leave unwanted bikes at designated “drop points.” That would make getting them to places like Arvin, and to kids like Jorge, much easier and cheaper. It would also keep a bike from becoming leftover MOOP, and thereby delay its eventual reincarnation as a seventh-grader’s favorite new possession.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n",

And others are used in art projects or donated to nonprofits like the Dolores Huerta Foundation. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The donated bikes will help the children exercise and be outdoors, said Elizabeth Martinez, who works on health issues for the Foundation. “In order for you to be healthy, you’ve got to eat healthy, you have to be active, and a lot of the times there’s barriers, especially in our little cities,” she said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Kern County, where Arvin is located, up to 10 percent of residents have been diagnosed with diabetes. County data show that Kern ranks near the top in California for its high rate of diabetes-related deaths. In Arvin, almost a quarter of the 20,000 residents live below the poverty line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But Martinez says the bike donation program is not just about promoting exercise. It’s also about giving kids a new way to be independent and a new skill. “We’re teaching them how to fix their bikes on their own,” she said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Overall, it seems like a win-win: Abandoned bikes are recycled for a good cause, in keeping with the Burner principle of civic responsibility. And yet some Burning Man representatives were reluctant to discuss the issue, even the donations. They are afraid Burners might leave even more bikes behind, with the assumption that volunteers will simply pass them along to charities. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

At the very least, Burners should leave unwanted bikes at designated “drop points.” That would make getting them to places like Arvin, and to kids like Jorge, much easier and cheaper. It would also keep a bike from becoming leftover MOOP, and thereby delay its eventual reincarnation as a seventh-grader’s favorite new possession.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
