"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.",

(Here's a PDF of the three-page letter, dated Dec. 8, 2010: \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2010/12/O_Malley-Quan-Letter_20151208.pdf\">O'Malley-Quan letter\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O'Malley noted in the letter that her office has \"a long-standing policy of declining to issue advisory opinions as to the legality of any particular conduct.\" She went on to say that as a cancer survivor, she \"certainly understands the benefits for those in need of the medicinal use of marijuana in various forms.\" Nevertheless, she said, her office has ongoing concerns about whether the Oakland's new medical marijuana cultivation ordinance—which would license and tax four massive pot farms in the city—comply with state law. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The letter includes two clear warnings to Oakland officials. First, that the new ordinance will not provide a defense against criminal charges if it's found to go beyond the provisions of the state's medical marijuana laws. And second, it's possible that city officials and employees could face state or federal charges for implementing the new ordinance.\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://californiawatch.org/dailyreport/alameda-district-attorney-questions-oakland-pot-farms-7544\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cbr>\nMichael Montgomery's California Watch blog post \u003c/a>on the letter outlines a couple of points of tension between Oakland's ordinance and state law:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>City officials say the ordinance is an effort to bring order to Oakland’s thriving pot-growing scene and earn millions in tax revenue. They also say the ordinance hews closely to state medical marijuana laws, which allow for marijuana cultivation within a closed loop of patients and providers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But District Attorney O’Malley’s letter cites specific areas where the ordinance could violate provisions in state law governing medical marijuana collectives. The central point is that under the plan Oakland's pot farms would be taxed as entities separate from businesses that dispense medical cannabis.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The Oakland City Council is scheduled to discuss the medical pot ordinance next Tuesday. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

(Here's a PDF of the three-page letter, dated Dec. 8, 2010: \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2010/12/O_Malley-Quan-Letter_20151208.pdf\">O'Malley-Quan letter\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>O'Malley noted in the letter that her office has \"a long-standing policy of declining to issue advisory opinions as to the legality of any particular conduct.\" She went on to say that as a cancer survivor, she \"certainly understands the benefits for those in need of the medicinal use of marijuana in various forms.\" Nevertheless, she said, her office has ongoing concerns about whether the Oakland's new medical marijuana cultivation ordinance—which would license and tax four massive pot farms in the city—comply with state law. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The letter includes two clear warnings to Oakland officials. First, that the new ordinance will not provide a defense against criminal charges if it's found to go beyond the provisions of the state's medical marijuana laws. And second, it's possible that city officials and employees could face state or federal charges for implementing the new ordinance.\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://californiawatch.org/dailyreport/alameda-district-attorney-questions-oakland-pot-farms-7544\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cbr>\nMichael Montgomery's California Watch blog post \u003c/a>on the letter outlines a couple of points of tension between Oakland's ordinance and state law:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>City officials say the ordinance is an effort to bring order to Oakland’s thriving pot-growing scene and earn millions in tax revenue. They also say the ordinance hews closely to state medical marijuana laws, which allow for marijuana cultivation within a closed loop of patients and providers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But District Attorney O’Malley’s letter cites specific areas where the ordinance could violate provisions in state law governing medical marijuana collectives. The central point is that under the plan Oakland's pot farms would be taxed as entities separate from businesses that dispense medical cannabis.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The Oakland City Council is scheduled to discuss the medical pot ordinance next Tuesday. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Miller, the Senior Editor of KQED’s Climate Watch, is \u003ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#!/voxterra\">tweeting\u003c/a> live from the CARB proceedings, and has also put up a \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/climatewatch/2010/12/15/lonely-road-for-cap-and-trade/\">post\u003c/a> explaining the new carbon trading system, excerpted below:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\n…while Washington is “looking for other means” to reduce the carbon emissions that cause global warming, the table is set for cap & trade in California.

He told me he thinks the state has done a good job of finding that happy zone that serves the twin goals of achieving eventual carbon reductions and protecting the state’s economy from an ill-timed hit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s true that many environmentalists were pushing for a “100% auction” of permits but CARB staffers have been saying for months that that wasn’t a realistic way to start. Fine figures that more than half the permits will be auctioned by 2015 and he’s happy with that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>QUESTION\u003cbr>\nDo you think there was some political motivation to releasing the rules the Friday before the vote on Prop 23?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CRAIG MILLER\u003cbr>\nSeems logical, as there was a chance there to show that full implementation of AB 32 wouldn’t be a job killer. But they also needed 45 days for public comment before the December board meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>QUESTION\u003cbr>\nWhat exactly did Valero and Tesoro have at stake so that they bankrolled Prop 23? And why did the really prominent big oil companies stay out of the fight?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CRAIG MILLER\u003cbr>\nFor oil companies with major refining operations in California, tens of millions of dollars per year were on the line, in potential permit fees and upgrades to facilities. Valero, the nation’s largest refiner and biggest donor to Prop 23, estimated that AB 32 would cost the company $75 million. Both Valero and Tesoro have refineries in California, including Tesoro’s largest. We’ve mapped the state’s biggest industrial carbon emitters:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m not an oil industry analyst but the major oil companies can use profits from their “upstream” operations—their crude oil fields, basically—to offset the cost of AB 32. Valero & Tesoro are just refiners and are seeing their margins squeezed more than the big, vertically integrated players. It’s worth noting that Occidental, an LA-based oil company, was also a large donor to Prop 23.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>QUESTION\u003cbr>\nReports indicated that a lot of money was switched from going to Prop 23 to Prop 26 when it became clear 23 would not pass. How will Prop 26 impact AB 32? Will the state find it hard or impossible to institute fees necessary to implement the new rules?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CRAIG MILLER\u003cbr>\nWe don’t know yet. But toward the end of the campaign, it was “the elephant in the room” that the No-on-23 people weren’t really talking about. CARB’s position is that Prop 26—having passed—will not affect any fees authorized by AB 32, which passed in 2006. Others say it’s not that clear-cut. Stay tuned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>QUESTION\u003cbr>\nAny other important issues related to AB 32?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CRAIG MILLER\u003cbr>\nUnsettled is exactly what will happen with the Western Climate Initiative, the nascent attempt at a regional carbon trading partnership between California and several other states and Canadian provinces. Recently it has seemed that only New Mexico and Quebec were really ready to move forward with WCI. Arizona has pulled out of the cap-and-trade plan. Other states are in limbo, still participating on paper but without the necessary enabling legislation. We may find out more from this week’s climate “summit” that Governor Schwarzenegger is hosting in Davis.\u003c/p>\n\n",

So, the agreement we've been hearing about all week, the one so easily summarized as President Obama's acceptance of a continuation of the Bush tax cuts (for everyone, including the very wealthy) in exchange for the GOP's going along with extended unemployment benefits, is full of little surprises. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's a surprise that alarms Lyndon Rive, the founder and CEO of \u003ca href=\"http://www.solarcity.com/media-center/company-profile.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">SolarCity\u003c/a>, a big solar power seller and installer based in Foster City.

In essence, that will allow companies to cancel out their tax liabilities for the coming years.

Side-by-side with that program is a 30 percent Treasury cash grant tax called the \u003ca href=\"http://www.treasury.gov/initiatives/recovery/Pages/1603.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">1603 program\u003c/a> that's part of the Obama administration's stimulus program).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's where the problem lies, according to Rive: by far the biggest investors in solar systems are large financial institutions: Wells Fargo, U.S. Bank, JPMorgan Chase, and Morgan Stanley among them. The banks purchase the systems and essentially lease them to end users like homeowners and small business, whose only ongoing payments are for the electricity the systems provide (end users also are credited for any surplus power generated and fed back into the grid). This arrangement allows the investors to get the benefits of the big federal tax credits or 1603 grants. However, with a 100 percent immediate depreciation of capitalized assets available, the banks and other investors have the ability to immediately zero out their tax liabilities. Since they no longer have any \"tax appetite\"—the term Rive repeatedly used for their need to find a strategy to reduce their tax bills--their incentive to buy solar systems for the 30 percent tax credit will go away, at least in the short term (you can't take a credit if your tax bill is zero).

Rive said Solar City had 380 employees when the meltdown hit; demand shrank so abruptly that the company laid off about 100 employees; since the advent of the stimulus package and the financial industry recovery, the sector has boomed, and Solar City's workforce now stands at 930). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We've got calls out to renewable industry trade groups, to several solar companies, and to other industry analysts.

Did I mention she was dressed as a clown? She was. First speaking in rhyming couplets, then in word cloud, Linda explained that she has traveled the world as a street performer and was upset that recently she was prevented from plying her tumescent trade in Union Square. (Linda seemed to be operating under the misapprehension that Union Square is managed by the Recreation and Park Department. It is not.)\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>(To watch that bit, fast forward to 14:00 of the \u003ca href=\"http://sanfrancisco.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?view_id=91&clip_id=11181\">video\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s true, in some ways, the public-comment period is reminiscent of that recurring \u003ca href=\"http://www.hulu.com/watch/73361/saturday-night-live-funeral\">Saturday Night Live skit\u003c/a> in which a motley assortment of lunatics interrupts the proceedings at a funeral in order to make highly inappropriate announcements:\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cobject width=\"480\" height=\"270\">\u003cparam name=\"movie\" value=\"http://www.hulu.com/embed/OT_tbnr98TDlYLYeTLgjig\">\u003cparam name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\">\u003cembed src=\"http://www.hulu.com/embed/OT_tbnr98TDlYLYeTLgjig\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" allowfullscreen=\"true\">\u003c/embed>\u003c/object>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, along with the pet peeves and hyper-local gadfly gripes, the Examiner column lumps in the concerns of those who oppose contentious proposals like the eviction of the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2010/12/03/haight-recycling-center-debate-moves-to-rec-and-park-meeting-today/\">Haight-Ashbury Neighborhood Council Recycling Center\u003c/a> in favor of a community garden. (Skip to around 2:20 in the \u003ca href=\"http://sanfrancisco.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?view_id=91&clip_id=11181\">video\u003c/a> to watch the beginning of that debate.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether you view these types of proceedings as a sort of grotesque NIMBYism-on-parade, or the height of open-government participation as practiced by an informed citizenry, really depends on your vision of the city. There are certainly those who feel that the strong anti-development instincts of many San Franciscans has degenerated into a reflexive and obstinate opposition to any new project or attempt at economic development. But there are also those who continue to believe that only this type of heightened vigilance can keep deleterious monied forces at bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve lived in the city 20 years, but only recently have I found these debates to be a primary topic of conversation. This year’s brouhahas over both the runaway success of \u003ca href=\"http://bayarea.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/05/07/too-much-of-a-good-thing-ikes-place-faces-eviction/\">Ike’s Place\u003c/a> and the proposed opening of \u003ca href=\"http://articles.sfgate.com/2010-11-10/business/24824091_1_parking-avalonbay-castro\">Whole Foods\u003c/a> in the Castro, and the \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sfweekly.com/foodie/2010/10/blue_bottle_kills_plans_for_ca.php\">aborted plan\u003c/a> to license a Blue Bottle coffee trailer in Dolores Park, have tested some longtime lefties’ tolerance and support for \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/columns/scott-james/ascendant-nimby-crowd-threatens-fun/\">neighborhood activism\u003c/a>. (The Blue Bottle incident, in particular, seems to have triggered a \u003ca href=\"http://groups.google.com/group/ba.food/browse_thread/thread/360217d4c9803c4b?pli=1\">big debate\u003c/a> after the fact.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While I may have my opinion yes-or-no on individual projects, I have to say that I generally like living in a city in which proposed changes are the subject of rigorous debate. Every time I go back to Manhattan, where I grew up, it’s like entire areas have been transformed in the blink of an eye.

Did I mention she was dressed as a clown? She was. First speaking in rhyming couplets, then in word cloud, Linda explained that she has traveled the world as a street performer and was upset that recently she was prevented from plying her tumescent trade in Union Square. (Linda seemed to be operating under the misapprehension that Union Square is managed by the Recreation and Park Department. It is not.)\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>(To watch that bit, fast forward to 14:00 of the \u003ca href=\"http://sanfrancisco.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?view_id=91&clip_id=11181\">video\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s true, in some ways, the public-comment period is reminiscent of that recurring \u003ca href=\"http://www.hulu.com/watch/73361/saturday-night-live-funeral\">Saturday Night Live skit\u003c/a> in which a motley assortment of lunatics interrupts the proceedings at a funeral in order to make highly inappropriate announcements:\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cobject width=\"480\" height=\"270\">\u003cparam name=\"movie\" value=\"http://www.hulu.com/embed/OT_tbnr98TDlYLYeTLgjig\">\u003cparam name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\">\u003cembed src=\"http://www.hulu.com/embed/OT_tbnr98TDlYLYeTLgjig\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" allowfullscreen=\"true\">\u003c/embed>\u003c/object>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

There are certainly those who feel that the strong anti-development instincts of many San Franciscans has degenerated into a reflexive and obstinate opposition to any new project or attempt at economic development. But there are also those who continue to believe that only this type of heightened vigilance can keep deleterious monied forces at bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve lived in the city 20 years, but only recently have I found these debates to be a primary topic of conversation. This year’s brouhahas over both the runaway success of \u003ca href=\"http://bayarea.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/05/07/too-much-of-a-good-thing-ikes-place-faces-eviction/\">Ike’s Place\u003c/a> and the proposed opening of \u003ca href=\"http://articles.sfgate.com/2010-11-10/business/24824091_1_parking-avalonbay-castro\">Whole Foods\u003c/a> in the Castro, and the \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.sfweekly.com/foodie/2010/10/blue_bottle_kills_plans_for_ca.php\">aborted plan\u003c/a> to license a Blue Bottle coffee trailer in Dolores Park, have tested some longtime lefties’ tolerance and support for \u003ca href=\"http://www.baycitizen.org/columns/scott-james/ascendant-nimby-crowd-threatens-fun/\">neighborhood activism\u003c/a>. (The Blue Bottle incident, in particular, seems to have triggered a \u003ca href=\"http://groups.google.com/group/ba.food/browse_thread/thread/360217d4c9803c4b?pli=1\">big debate\u003c/a> after the fact.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While I may have my opinion yes-or-no on individual projects, I have to say that I generally like living in a city in which proposed changes are the subject of rigorous debate. Every time I go back to Manhattan, where I grew up, it’s like entire areas have been transformed in the blink of an eye. I don’t know what the planning process is like on a neighborhood level — or even if there is one — but when I lived there I don’t think I ever heard a single conversation about the cost or benefit of something opening or closing in advance of it actually happening.
