"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.",

This morning before leaving for work, I successfully downloaded the 40 pages of census schedules that cover the North Side Chicago enumeration district where my dad lived in 1940.

The experience was a little odd: After seeing nothing happen all day yesterday and in fact late into the night, I stopped expecting the National Archives to deliver any records. Can't wait to dig into them. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And speaking of the National Archives, its 1940 census site carries an acknowledgment that its performance has been less than ideal: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Thank you for your patience as we continue to address issues with the 1940 census web site.

If you're one of the millions who have been trying to view census records, it's been a frustrating few hours with the National Archives site grinding away and delivering mostly nothing. Here's why, by way of the \u003ca href=\"http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2012/04/1940s-census-website-overwhelmed-officials-working-on-a-fix.html\" target=\"_blank\">Los Angeles Times\u003c/a>: \u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"In the first three hours, we had 22.5-million hits on the site,\" said National Archives and Records Administration spokeswoman Susan Cooper. \"We're a victim of our own success.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cooper said the archives had anticipated significant interest in the public release of the census, the first time such information has been available online, but not quite as much as materialized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It’s frustrating and we share that frustration with the public,\" Cooper said. She said some people are getting through on the website, but many are not. \"We’re working as fast as we can to fix the problem.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update, 9:20 a.m.:\u003c/strong> Well, the census records are out there, but I guess the National Archives site is getting slammed.

Specifically, the Sierra Club and the Center for Biological Diversity are suing the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and the developer, Black Emerald Properties, in Superior Court, over a 4,918-acre project that would include up to 16,655 dwelling units and 5 million square feet of commercial space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"As county planners acknowledged, the project and its 40,000 or more residents would form an entirely new town, which would be constructed between the failing Salton Sea on the east and the sensitive wilderness lands of Anza Borrego State Park and the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument on the west,\" the complaint states... \"This massive influx of people, and the resulting traffic, will lead to an increase in air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in a region that already had some of the nation's highest air pollution levels. It will also catalyze more growth and cause significant new impacts on nearby parks, biological resources and cultural resources.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The plaintiffs claim \"Travertine Point,\" and the county's approval of it in February, and its 3,000-page environmental impact report (excluding appendices), violated both the California Environmental Quality Act and the California Code of Regulations. But they also find the economics of the proposal \"baffling.\" Aruna Prabhala, an attorney with the Center for Biological Diversity, told Courthouse News \"they basically want to build a new town in the middle of nowhere.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Developers naturally disagree, arguing the eastern side of the Coachella Valley is already popular with tourists and set to become more so once the economy turns around (maybe in the next 30 or so years.) Whatever your thoughts about the Salton Sea, it's saline hold on the human imagination is undeniable.\u003c/p>\n\n",

On the back side of the state's largest state park, \u003ca href=\"http://parks.ca.gov/?page_id=638\">Anza-Borrego\u003c/a>, there's a giant sink hole full of tilapia known as the Salton Sea. Despite its salinity and pollution (\u003ca href=\"http://www.sci.sdsu.edu/salton/EnvirnEconValueSaltonSea.html\">a combination of agricultural runoff and epic flooding\u003c/a>), the sea also provides a habitat for many migratory birds passing through California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in the 1950s, the Salton Sea was a desert playground for Metro LA, and real estate developers imagined something on the order of Palm Springs SE. But like the Sea itself, those dreams have waxed and waned over the years. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you haven't seen \"Plagues & Pleasures,\" \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Atgg7t4XbPk\">narrated by John Waters\u003c/a>, put that on your list of Docs to Watch. pronto. This is a place that inspires filmmakers and scientists and people prone to fixing things that appear to be broken. (We had a story on the scientific side of the sea on the \u003ca href=\"http://www.californiareport.org/archive/R608100850\">California Report\u003c/a> a few years back.) \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This week, we hear from \u003ca href=\"http://www.courthousenews.com/2012/03/19/44793.htm\">Courthouse News Service\u003c/a> that environmentalists are suing to stop a ginormous development proposed for the crusty northeastern shoreline of the Salton Sea. Specifically, the Sierra Club and the Center for Biological Diversity are suing the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and the developer, Black Emerald Properties, in Superior Court, over a 4,918-acre project that would include up to 16,655 dwelling units and 5 million square feet of commercial space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"As county planners acknowledged, the project and its 40,000 or more residents would form an entirely new town, which would be constructed between the failing Salton Sea on the east and the sensitive wilderness lands of Anza Borrego State Park and the Santa Rosa and San Jacinto Mountains National Monument on the west,\" the complaint states... \"This massive influx of people, and the resulting traffic, will lead to an increase in air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in a region that already had some of the nation's highest air pollution levels. It will also catalyze more growth and cause significant new impacts on nearby parks, biological resources and cultural resources.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The plaintiffs claim \"Travertine Point,\" and the county's approval of it in February, and its 3,000-page environmental impact report (excluding appendices), violated both the California Environmental Quality Act and the California Code of Regulations. But they also find the economics of the proposal \"baffling.\" Aruna Prabhala, an attorney with the Center for Biological Diversity, told Courthouse News \"they basically want to build a new town in the middle of nowhere.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
