"content": "\u003cp>The Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District wants more time to come up with the funding for a long-discussed suicide prevention barrier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district’s board of directors unanimously voted Friday to let its staff request a 90-day extension from the two firms that offered bids on the steel net that would be installed along the bridge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland-based Shimmick/Danny’s Joint Venture bid $142 million and American Bridge Company of Coraopolis, Pennsylvania, bid $174 million back in July. Both bids were significantly larger than the $76 million the bridge district had \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/06/27/golden-gate-bridge-suicide-barrier/\">set aside for the project\u003c/a> in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those bids expire on Oct. 10, but the bridge district is asking the companies to extend the deadline until Jan. 9, 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Right now, we need more time,” bridge district spokeswoman Priya Clemens said. “We need time to look at the bids, and we need time to potentially find more funding to award one of these bids.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the latest delay in a process that has seen many since it began in 2005. Several of the previous delays were also funding-related, with the board initially hesitant to use toll funds to pay for the project and some board members concerned over whether the net would be an effective deterrent. Clemens says the bridge district expects a six-to-12 month delay to the four-year project, pushing completion of the net to 2021.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The project got a boost in 2012 when a new law made a \u003ca href=\"http://goldengate.org/news/bridge/net_barrier_fed_funds.php\">broader range of federal funding\u003c/a> available for safety barriers and nets on bridges, and Clemens says the bridge district will look into both state and federal funding options to close the money gap. The current $76 million earmarked for the net includes $27 million from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, $22 million from Caltrans, $20 million from the bridge district and $7 million from state Mental Health Services Act funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clemens said that despite the delays, the board is still committed to getting the net installed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The extra costs are certainly a concern for board members, but it has not deterred their desire to end the scourge of suicide on the Golden Gate Bridge,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly 500 people have committed suicide on the Golden Gate Bridge since 2000, including 22 this year through Aug. 22, according to the bridge district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.html?source=1jUf_n-6nCMj6pqgzWoUNOKSMNcEJUZexMJ39rFEArK0&font=Default&lang=en&initial_zoom=2&height=650\" width=\"100%\" height=\"650\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Several of the previous delays were also funding-related, with the board initially hesitant to use toll funds to pay for the project and some board members concerned over whether the net would be an effective deterrent. Clemens says the bridge district expects a six-to-12 month delay to the four-year project, pushing completion of the net to 2021.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The project got a boost in 2012 when a new law made a \u003ca href=\"http://goldengate.org/news/bridge/net_barrier_fed_funds.php\">broader range of federal funding\u003c/a> available for safety barriers and nets on bridges, and Clemens says the bridge district will look into both state and federal funding options to close the money gap. The current $76 million earmarked for the net includes $27 million from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, $22 million from Caltrans, $20 million from the bridge district and $7 million from state Mental Health Services Act funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clemens said that despite the delays, the board is still committed to getting the net installed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The extra costs are certainly a concern for board members, but it has not deterred their desire to end the scourge of suicide on the Golden Gate Bridge,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly 500 people have committed suicide on the Golden Gate Bridge since 2000, including 22 this year through Aug. 22, according to the bridge district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/timeline3/latest/embed/index.html?source=1jUf_n-6nCMj6pqgzWoUNOKSMNcEJUZexMJ39rFEArK0&font=Default&lang=en&initial_zoom=2&height=650\" width=\"100%\" height=\"650\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Bridge directors actually reduced tolls three times — to 40 cents each way in July 1950; to 30 cents in February 1955; and to 25 cents in October 1955. A 40-trip book of commute tickets was priced at $7 after that final reduction,.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those 1955 cuts were made in response to pressure from local politicians — notably state Sen. Jack McCarthy, a Republican representing parts of Marin and San Francisco — who argued that the district’s revenue from bridge tolls was far more than it needed to make ends meet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the district voted in August 1955 to reduce the toll to a quarter, board member William Hadeler foresaw a future that could be toll-free, if only cash weren’t needed to keep the bridge in good repair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are not going to be content with a 25-cent toll,” Hadeler said, according to what was then called the Daily Independent Journal (today’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.marinij.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marin IJ\u003c/a>). “As soon as conditions permit, I — and I am sure all of the directors — would like to see the toll reduced to 20 cents, to 15 cents, to 10 cents; and some day, if possible, no toll at all. But free tolls are something for the distant future. The Golden Gate Bridge is here for all time. It has to be operated and maintained so that it will always be here. And someone must pay the cost of those expenditures. That is why we have tolls.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That “someone” who needs to pay the cost of upkeep turns out to be us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bridge district managed to keep fares at the equivalent of 50 cents per round trip until 1974, when the price went up to 75 cents (or $3.65 in today’s bucks.)

If it were to appear, the report said it “would likely cause severe economic impacts to the nursery trade, as well as environmental impacts on native species.” Then in the fall of 2012, it showed up at a nursery in Monterey County. \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/science/audio/tiny-parasite-threatens-native-plants/\" target=\"_blank\">Full story\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Why the Silk Road trial matters\u003c/strong> \u003cem>(Wired)\u003c/em>:\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Ross Ulbricht is finally getting his day in court, 15 months after plainclothes FBI agents grabbed him in the science fiction section of a San Francisco library and accused him of running the billion-dollar online drug bazaar known as the Silk Road.

Using transfer machines, the barrier will be moved several times a day to create more lanes in a particular direction to accommodate variable traffic demands such as the morning and evening commutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A new merge will be very different for southbound vehicles. Where drivers currently merge from left to right, the new merge will be from right to left. In addition, the speed limit will be dropped to 45 miles per hour from the current 55 miles per hour on the descent down the Waldo Grade. Lastly, with the installation of the barrier, the two inside lanes will lose 6-inches of width. Getting used to driving next to the barrier may take some adjustment for some drivers, and the District advises motorists to take it slow and get used to the new driving conditions.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The movable media barrier system consists of approximately 13,340 feet of 12-inch-wide and 32-inch-high \"steel-clad units filled with high-density concrete tightly pinned together to form a semi-rigid median barrier,\" the district says, plus two barrier transfer machines, aka zipper trucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The projects will cost about $30.3 million, the district says. About 19 percent of that will come from toll revenue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's an \u003ca href=\"http://vimeo.com/115360942\" target=\"_blank\">animated video\u003c/a> of what the new configuration will look like:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[vimeo 115360942 w=500 h=281]\u003c/p>\n\n",

A Caltrans spokesman told the Marin Independent Journal that the Golden Gate Bridge closure will mean lots of extra vehicles on this alternate route to and from the North Bay. \"We expect it to be as busy as it is during the work week,\" Bob Haus said. \"People should leave extra time to get where they are going.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So Long \"Suicide Lane\"\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you're feeling particularly inconvenienced, know that the bridge is being closed for a good reason: to replace the plastic pylons that now separate northbound and southbound traffic with a movable, 1-foot wide median barrier that bridge officials say will \"virtually eliminate crossover collisions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some locals have grimly dubbed the lanes closest to oncoming traffic the \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Median-Barrier-OKd-for-Golden-Gate-Bridge-3005578.php\" target=\"_blank\">suicide lane\u003c/a>\" because of all the accidents involving vehicles crossing over onto the wrong side of the pylons. The San Francisco Chronicle \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Movable-median-barrier-coming-to-Golden-Gate-5501070.php\" target=\"_blank\">reported\u003c/a> in May that of the 36 people who have been killed in accidents on the bridge since 1970, 16 died in crossover collisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last fatality on the bridge, however, occurred in 2001, and the Golden Gate Bridge Highway & Transportation District says the accident rate has been significantly reduced since the 1980s due to the reduction in speed limit over the bridge to 45 mph, wider driving lanes and increased traffic enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(To hear about the effects of a nonfatal head-on collision on the bridge, listen to Mina Kim's \u003ca href=\"https://soundcloud.com/kqed/states-of-grace-documents-roller-coaster-healing-process\" target=\"_blank\">interview\u003c/a> earlier this week with Dr. Grace Damman, who survived one with another vehicle driven by someone who fell asleep at the wheel.

Using transfer machines, the barrier will be moved several times a day to create more lanes in a particular direction to accommodate variable traffic demands such as the morning and evening commutes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A new merge will be very different for southbound vehicles. Where drivers currently merge from left to right, the new merge will be from right to left. In addition, the speed limit will be dropped to 45 miles per hour from the current 55 miles per hour on the descent down the Waldo Grade. Lastly, with the installation of the barrier, the two inside lanes will lose 6-inches of width. Getting used to driving next to the barrier may take some adjustment for some drivers, and the District advises motorists to take it slow and get used to the new driving conditions.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The movable media barrier system consists of approximately 13,340 feet of 12-inch-wide and 32-inch-high \"steel-clad units filled with high-density concrete tightly pinned together to form a semi-rigid median barrier,\" the district says, plus two barrier transfer machines, aka zipper trucks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The projects will cost about $30.3 million, the district says. About 19 percent of that will come from toll revenue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's an \u003ca href=\"http://vimeo.com/115360942\" target=\"_blank\">animated video\u003c/a> of what the new configuration will look like:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

After being in a coma for a month and a half and enduring nine surgeries, she was sufficiently recovered to leave the hospital. The choice facing documentary filmmakers Helen S. Cohen and Mark Lipman was to jump or miss the boat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was kind of the last moment we could start this film and make it work, because Grace was coming home from a year in rehab hospitals,” Lipman recalls. “I’m not sure we knew what we were getting ourselves into.

We had no idea what it would look like.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10277731\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/01/gracemakers.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/01/gracemakers.jpg\" alt=\"Mark Lipman and Helen S.

Following the story and not knowing what was gong to happen. We were witnessing; we didn’t know where we were going. We expected it to be easier [than it was] because the whole first year after the accident, Grace was in a euphoric place about her life. We didn’t think [her long-term recovery] would be a walk in the park, but filming Grace going through the difficult, dark process was incredibly challenging.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>States of Grace\u003c/em> intimately and sensitively portrays Damman’s arduous transition from top-drawer caregiver to dependent care-recipient (with the lingering possibility of regaining her original ability and status). Her partner, Fu Schroeder, and their adopted (and now teenage) daughter, Sabrina, carry the brunt of the weight, which transforms the film into an unflinching study of the bonds and frustrations of human relationships under exceptional stress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10277732\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/01/gracelama.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/01/gracelama.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Grace Dammann with the Dalai Lama at the Unsung Heroes of Compassion award ceremony in 2009.

Yet \u003cem>States of Grace\u003c/em>, which screens this week at venues around the Bay Area after premiering at the Mill Valley Film Festival in October, speaks eloquently to viewers whose visceral identification with Grace and Fu’s predicament trumps any geographical, religious, social and sexual differences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So far our sense is it does transcend those boundaries,” Cohen says. “Fu is this [female] Buddhist priest with a shaved head, yet [audiences] just see them as people they can relate to.” Lipman adds, “People forget how idiosyncratic they are because what comes through is the level of caring. It just looks like a regular family struggling to deal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cohen is a friend of Dammann’s, and that connection allowed the filmmakers access to the family. But the process turned out to be especially complicated for Cohen, who had to balance her personal relationship with the camera’s (and editor Kenji Yamamoto’s) unflinching perspective.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We wanted to be as true to the experience as we could be,” says Lipman, who shot the film. “Without showing some of the very dark moments and the struggle that Grace went through, not only wouldn’t it be a good movie, but it wouldn’t be useful in the world because it wouldn’t ring true to people’s experiences with situations like this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"aligncenter\">\n\u003cstrong>KQED’s Mina Kim speaks to Grace Damman.\u003c/strong>\n\u003cp>[soundcloud url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/184983355″ params=”color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false” width=”100%” height=”166″ iframe=”true” /]\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The result is that \u003cem>States of Grace\u003c/em> achieves a relevance and a power that not only reaches beyond its subjects, but goes well beyond the initial vague intentions of the filmmakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know that we had an agenda at the beginning,” Lipman muses. “Helen and I have a long history of making social issue documentaries where there have been clear agendas, and we’ve done the research and pre-interviews. Of course, it never quite works out that way. But here, it was being grabbed by the situation itself and running with it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s especially gratifying to Cohen and Lipman that their gutsy gamble to seize this project will have ripple effects they couldn’t have imagined.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“\u003cem>States of Grace\u003c/em> is a philosophical film about the meaning of life and people reinventing themselves and coming to terms with who they are after a really horrible, tragic accident,” Cohen says. “What the film also does that we didn’t anticipate at all is [serve as] a real resource for medical education, rehab practitioners, caregivers, social workers and psychologists working with families who go through trauma or illness. So it has some work to do in the world that we didn’t anticipate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most moviegoers and TV viewers are interested in documentaries solely for their content, but the filmmaker’s choices and compromises, combined with fortuitous accidents, are equally compelling. Embarking on a cinema verité film is taking a leap without a net, but the risk is offset by the freedom. “This kind of filmmaking allows us to bring more of our artist selves to the filmmaking process, which is really gratifying,” Cohen says. “It’s hard to imagine going back to straight-up documentary filmmaking after an experience like this, where we were able to bring so much more poetry and our creative sensibilities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we were finishing this up, I thought I am never doing another film like this again,” Lipman adds. “We are finishing a historical film now, but Helen and I are scheming on another cinema verité project. There’s something compelling about this kind of filmmaking, once you dust yourself off and pick yourself back up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>States of Grace\u003c/em> screens Monday and Tuesday, January 5-6, 2015 at the Balboa Theater in San Francisco, Jan. 6 at the New Parkway in Oakland, Jan. 7 at the Vogue in San Francisco, Jan. 8 at the Rafael Film Center in San Rafael (with Grace and Fu on hand) and Jan. 12 at the Shattuck Cinemas in Berkeley.

After being in a coma for a month and a half and enduring nine surgeries, she was sufficiently recovered to leave the hospital. The choice facing documentary filmmakers Helen S. Cohen and Mark Lipman was to jump or miss the boat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was kind of the last moment we could start this film and make it work, because Grace was coming home from a year in rehab hospitals,” Lipman recalls. “I’m not sure we knew what we were getting ourselves into. We expected that something fascinating would unfold. We had no idea what it would look like.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10277731\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/01/gracemakers.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/01/gracemakers.jpg\" alt=\"Mark Lipman and Helen S.

Following the story and not knowing what was gong to happen. We were witnessing; we didn’t know where we were going. We expected it to be easier [than it was] because the whole first year after the accident, Grace was in a euphoric place about her life. We didn’t think [her long-term recovery] would be a walk in the park, but filming Grace going through the difficult, dark process was incredibly challenging.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>States of Grace\u003c/em> intimately and sensitively portrays Damman’s arduous transition from top-drawer caregiver to dependent care-recipient (with the lingering possibility of regaining her original ability and status). Her partner, Fu Schroeder, and their adopted (and now teenage) daughter, Sabrina, carry the brunt of the weight, which transforms the film into an unflinching study of the bonds and frustrations of human relationships under exceptional stress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10277732\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/01/gracelama.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/01/gracelama.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Grace Dammann with the Dalai Lama at the Unsung Heroes of Compassion award ceremony in 2009.

It just looks like a regular family struggling to deal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cohen is a friend of Dammann’s, and that connection allowed the filmmakers access to the family. But the process turned out to be especially complicated for Cohen, who had to balance her personal relationship with the camera’s (and editor Kenji Yamamoto’s) unflinching perspective.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We wanted to be as true to the experience as we could be,” says Lipman, who shot the film. “Without showing some of the very dark moments and the struggle that Grace went through, not only wouldn’t it be a good movie, but it wouldn’t be useful in the world because it wouldn’t ring true to people’s experiences with situations like this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"aligncenter\">\n\u003cstrong>KQED’s Mina Kim speaks to Grace Damman.\u003c/strong>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cdiv class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__shortcodes__shortcodeWrapper'>\n \u003ciframe width='”100%”' height='”166″'\n scrolling='no' frameborder='no'\n src='https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/184983355″&visual=true&”color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false”'\n title='”https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/184983355″'>\n \u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/div>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The result is that \u003cem>States of Grace\u003c/em> achieves a relevance and a power that not only reaches beyond its subjects, but goes well beyond the initial vague intentions of the filmmakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know that we had an agenda at the beginning,” Lipman muses. “Helen and I have a long history of making social issue documentaries where there have been clear agendas, and we’ve done the research and pre-interviews. Of course, it never quite works out that way. But here, it was being grabbed by the situation itself and running with it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s especially gratifying to Cohen and Lipman that their gutsy gamble to seize this project will have ripple effects they couldn’t have imagined.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“\u003cem>States of Grace\u003c/em> is a philosophical film about the meaning of life and people reinventing themselves and coming to terms with who they are after a really horrible, tragic accident,” Cohen says. “What the film also does that we didn’t anticipate at all is [serve as] a real resource for medical education, rehab practitioners, caregivers, social workers and psychologists working with families who go through trauma or illness. So it has some work to do in the world that we didn’t anticipate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most moviegoers and TV viewers are interested in documentaries solely for their content, but the filmmaker’s choices and compromises, combined with fortuitous accidents, are equally compelling. Embarking on a cinema verité film is taking a leap without a net, but the risk is offset by the freedom. “This kind of filmmaking allows us to bring more of our artist selves to the filmmaking process, which is really gratifying,” Cohen says. “It’s hard to imagine going back to straight-up documentary filmmaking after an experience like this, where we were able to bring so much more poetry and our creative sensibilities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we were finishing this up, I thought I am never doing another film like this again,” Lipman adds. “We are finishing a historical film now, but Helen and I are scheming on another cinema verité project. There’s something compelling about this kind of filmmaking, once you dust yourself off and pick yourself back up.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
