Reducing greenhouse-gas emissions is a global issue that requires global engagement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Butt said the city sued “out of frustration, because I know that these fossil fuel companies are aware of the long-term costs and damage of the widespread consumption of fossil fuel.” He said Richmond was already planning for the sea’s rise but had not yet calculated mitigation costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suits are filed in state court under California’s public nuisance law, which allows legal actions against activities that are “injurious to health.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New York City filed a similar claim against five of the world’s largest oil companies in federal court, asking that the cost of mitigating damage done by the companies as a result of their contribution to climate change be charged to them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The legal challenges also assert that the oil industry has known for decades that burning fossil fuels accelerates climate change. The Richmond complaint states, “The industry has known for decades that business-as-usual combustion of their products could be ‘severe’ or even ‘catastrophic.’\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Companies were so certain of the threat that some even took steps to protect their own assets from rising seas and more extreme storms,” the complaint goes on, “and they developed new technologies to profit from drilling in a soon-to-be-ice-free Arctic. Yet instead of taking steps to reduce the threat to others, the industry actually increased production while spending billions on public relations, lobbying, and campaign contributions to hide the truth.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The slow unraveling of the decades-long industry cover-up of the medical harm from cigarettes turned the tide in the tobacco cases, according to Ann Carlson, an environmental law professor at the Emmett Institute on Climate Change and the Environment at the UCLA School of Law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carlson, who is advising some of the plaintiffs’ lawyers, said that courts will take into account the oil-industry-funded campaign to discredit climate science.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That matters in California,” she said. “If you can show evidence that a defendant engaged in a campaign to obfuscate, it’s more than just a nice detail. Evidence helps.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With much at stake, oil companies are pushing back hard. ExxonMobil has responded with a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4345487-Exxon-Texas-Petition-Jan-2018.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">demand\u003c/a> to depose lawyers representing the California cities and counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company says it is a victim of a conspiracy, and cities and counties are being disingenuous: When they issue municipal bonds, they portray risk from climate change as unpredictable, not the fault of oil firms, as the lawsuits claim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The companies have also filed motions to move the cases to federal courts, where they believe there are precedents more favorable to them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The number of legal claims intended to monetize the consequences of a warming planet is growing. Carlson said greater scientific certainty about attributing climate change impacts to specific industries and companies has created a legal opening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The courts were uncomfortable that they couldn’t trace the harm,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California is the epicenter of so-called climate-attribution science, said Peter Frumhoff, director of science and policy for the Union of Concerned Scientists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s really a quite robust ability to characterize the extent to which climate change impacts have worsened,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Further, by collating data taken from oil companies’ annual accounting and national and international energy agencies’ reports, “one can then connect the dots and assign a cost. That tees up the question, ‘Who is responsible and who should pay?’ ” Frumhoff said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is where the science is taking us, with increasing specificity and confidence,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Reducing greenhouse-gas emissions is a global issue that requires global engagement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Butt said the city sued “out of frustration, because I know that these fossil fuel companies are aware of the long-term costs and damage of the widespread consumption of fossil fuel.” He said Richmond was already planning for the sea’s rise but had not yet calculated mitigation costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suits are filed in state court under California’s public nuisance law, which allows legal actions against activities that are “injurious to health.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New York City filed a similar claim against five of the world’s largest oil companies in federal court, asking that the cost of mitigating damage done by the companies as a result of their contribution to climate change be charged to them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The legal challenges also assert that the oil industry has known for decades that burning fossil fuels accelerates climate change. The Richmond complaint states, “The industry has known for decades that business-as-usual combustion of their products could be ‘severe’ or even ‘catastrophic.’\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Companies were so certain of the threat that some even took steps to protect their own assets from rising seas and more extreme storms,” the complaint goes on, “and they developed new technologies to profit from drilling in a soon-to-be-ice-free Arctic. Yet instead of taking steps to reduce the threat to others, the industry actually increased production while spending billions on public relations, lobbying, and campaign contributions to hide the truth.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The slow unraveling of the decades-long industry cover-up of the medical harm from cigarettes turned the tide in the tobacco cases, according to Ann Carlson, an environmental law professor at the Emmett Institute on Climate Change and the Environment at the UCLA School of Law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carlson, who is advising some of the plaintiffs’ lawyers, said that courts will take into account the oil-industry-funded campaign to discredit climate science.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That matters in California,” she said. “If you can show evidence that a defendant engaged in a campaign to obfuscate, it’s more than just a nice detail. Evidence helps.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With much at stake, oil companies are pushing back hard. ExxonMobil has responded with a \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4345487-Exxon-Texas-Petition-Jan-2018.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">demand\u003c/a> to depose lawyers representing the California cities and counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The company says it is a victim of a conspiracy, and cities and counties are being disingenuous: When they issue municipal bonds, they portray risk from climate change as unpredictable, not the fault of oil firms, as the lawsuits claim.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The companies have also filed motions to move the cases to federal courts, where they believe there are precedents more favorable to them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The number of legal claims intended to monetize the consequences of a warming planet is growing. Carlson said greater scientific certainty about attributing climate change impacts to specific industries and companies has created a legal opening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The courts were uncomfortable that they couldn’t trace the harm,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California is the epicenter of so-called climate-attribution science, said Peter Frumhoff, director of science and policy for the Union of Concerned Scientists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s really a quite robust ability to characterize the extent to which climate change impacts have worsened,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Further, by collating data taken from oil companies’ annual accounting and national and international energy agencies’ reports, “one can then connect the dots and assign a cost. That tees up the question, ‘Who is responsible and who should pay?’ ” Frumhoff said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Membership at Third Baptist Church has fallen from more than 2,000 to around 600, according to churchgoers, and the congregation continues to shrink, as people move out of the neighborhood. A couple of hundred people attended services on a recent Sunday, with many trekking into the city from the East Bay and beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Had not Third Baptist had its historicity, it would have been gone 10 years ago. It’s because of the respect, the loyalty and the appreciation for this institution that we have members as far away as Sacramento and Vallejo,” said the Rev. Amos C. Brown, 76, who has been the pastor for four decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Founded in 1852 as the “First Colored Baptist Church,” Third Baptist was the first African-American Baptist church west of the Rockies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It began out of struggle, unlike an ordinary, regular church,” said Brown, who is also president of the San Francisco branch of the NAACP. “It was not just about personal salvation. It was about the salvation of the people. Third Baptist was founded in response to the racism in white First Baptist of San Francisco, which was founded in 1849.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After moving several times around the city, Third Baptist Church found a home in the Fillmore District in 1952 -- a hundred years after it was founded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637866\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637866\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/12/CA_ThirdBaptist_13-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Members of the congregation sit for a luncheon following the service at the Third Baptist Church in the Fillmore District of San Francisco on Nov. 5, 2017. \u003ccite>(Brittany Greeson/WGBH and The GroundTruth Project)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“Really, African-Americans didn’t come here for spiritual needs; they came here for social betterment,” Brown said. “In a nonprofessional, strictly therapeutic way, the black faith community has always provided mental health, for it was in the church that there was their ability to gain a sense of somebodiness, of belonging.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout its history, Third Baptist Church played a role in civil rights and social justice, and Brown was well suited to carry on that legacy. He grew up in Jackson, Mississippi, and was 14 when Emmett Till -- another 14-year-old African-American boy -- was abducted and brutally killed for allegedly whistling at a white woman in 1955. Brown was so affected by the news that he reached out to civil rights activist Medgar Evers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mr. Evers said to me, ‘Amos, don’t just be mad. Be smart,' ” Brown recalled. So Brown organized the first youth chapter of the NAACP in Mississippi. He became a Freedom Rider, and at Morehouse College he was one of eight students in the only college class Martin Luther King, Jr. ever taught.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Brown became pastor of Third Baptist Church in 1976, the Western Addition, which is the larger neighborhood that includes the Fillmore District, was undergoing rapid changes as part of a federal policy of urban renewal. Starting in the 1950s, the city used eminent domain to displace thousands of families, mostly African-American, to rebuild large portions of the neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637869\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11637869 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/12/CA_ThirdBaptist_17-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Elaine Buchanan raises her hands in praise during the service at Third Baptist Church in the Fillmore District of San Francisco on Nov. 5, 2017. \u003ccite>(Brittany Greeson/WGBH and The GroundTruth Project)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“They called it urban renewal; we call it urban removal,” said church member Williams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown said it more plainly: “They had to find a scheme of public policy to get rid of us, and that was when redevelopment emerged, which was actually black removal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Census data show the African-American population in San Francisco beginning to grow in the 1940s, when war-related jobs drew many from the South, and peaking in 1970 at 13 percent. From 1970 to 2010, the city’s African-American population dropped by half.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Church member Lois Carmack-Winder declined to give her age but said Third Baptist had not yet moved to its current location when she started attending at age 4 or 5, after her family moved to San Francisco from Louisiana.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now there’s nowhere else to move because we can’t afford it,” said Carmack-Winder, who now lives in East Bay, but commutes in every Sunday for church. “African-Americans can no longer live in San Francisco. Families with children can no longer live in the city. ... We’ll be like the dinosaur.

The median rent for a one-bedroom unit is $3,390, according to a recent report by the rental site Zumper. San Francisco saw the biggest increase in income inequality of any U.S. city from 2010 to 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“San Francisco is not the city of love anymore,” said Paulet Gaines, a salon owner in the Fillmore District who plans to close up shop. “The demographics has changed. It’s no longer African-American or black-owned businesses, black-owned residing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gaines says she lived in the neighborhood 13 years ago. At that time, her rent was $800 a month. That apartment now rents for $5,000 a month, which is still well under market, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her father’s apartment nearby saw a more dramatic jump. When he died in 2016, he had been paying $872. Two weeks later, the apartment was rented out at $10,500 a month, she said. “No new amenities, no parking, no anything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/LkXjH5YcKlc\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I am going to close because I don’t have the traffic,” she said, noting that most of her African-American customers have left the neighborhood. “I'm here every day, and people just walk by, and it's -- nothing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown sees a literal sign of gentrification in the banners that hang down Fillmore Street, installed by a local merchants association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now they have the superficial cotton-candy sign up there, ‘Feel more in the Fillmore,’ but black people have nothing to feel,” he said. “Public policymakers, they have broken up the cultural enclaves in the African-American community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As neighborhoods become less recognizable to longtime residents, it’s not only high rent that encourages people to leave, says Malo Andre Hutson, an associate professor of city and regional planning at the University of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1jFinxJ9sog&feature=youtu.be\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People start to say, 'Well, my barbershop is now gone’ or ‘The place I used to go eat at is gone,' and then people start to move,” Hutson said. “People not having the same institutions that they used to go to, the cultural institutions, the faith-based institutions ... that has a big impact on people's social relationships, the overall fabric of the community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The landmark designation of Third Baptist Church is part of a trend Malo is seeing across the U.S., as a way for neighborhoods to resist gentrification and preserve their culture and history. But saving buildings isn’t enough, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The congregation may still be moving away, and then they commute in, and so you need a multi-prong strategy,” he said, including economic opportunities, affordable housing and preserving local institutions and businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rev. Brown says the landmark status helps cement the church’s role in a neighborhood that has changed drastically. At the signing ceremony, he said, “Because of this designation it will forever be known that Third Baptist was here, was reckoned with and made a difference in the lives of people for the better.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This story is part of \u003ca href=\"http://thegroundtruthproject.org/projects/crossing-the-divide/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Crossing the Divide\u003c/a>, a cross-country reporting road trip from WGBH and The GroundTruth Project, exploring issues that divide us and stories that unite us.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Membership at Third Baptist Church has fallen from more than 2,000 to around 600, according to churchgoers, and the congregation continues to shrink, as people move out of the neighborhood. A couple of hundred people attended services on a recent Sunday, with many trekking into the city from the East Bay and beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Had not Third Baptist had its historicity, it would have been gone 10 years ago. It’s because of the respect, the loyalty and the appreciation for this institution that we have members as far away as Sacramento and Vallejo,” said the Rev. Amos C. Brown, 76, who has been the pastor for four decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Founded in 1852 as the “First Colored Baptist Church,” Third Baptist was the first African-American Baptist church west of the Rockies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It began out of struggle, unlike an ordinary, regular church,” said Brown, who is also president of the San Francisco branch of the NAACP. “It was not just about personal salvation. It was about the salvation of the people. Third Baptist was founded in response to the racism in white First Baptist of San Francisco, which was founded in 1849.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After moving several times around the city, Third Baptist Church found a home in the Fillmore District in 1952 -- a hundred years after it was founded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637866\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637866\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/12/CA_ThirdBaptist_13-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Members of the congregation sit for a luncheon following the service at the Third Baptist Church in the Fillmore District of San Francisco on Nov. 5, 2017. \u003ccite>(Brittany Greeson/WGBH and The GroundTruth Project)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“Really, African-Americans didn’t come here for spiritual needs; they came here for social betterment,” Brown said. “In a nonprofessional, strictly therapeutic way, the black faith community has always provided mental health, for it was in the church that there was their ability to gain a sense of somebodiness, of belonging.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout its history, Third Baptist Church played a role in civil rights and social justice, and Brown was well suited to carry on that legacy. He grew up in Jackson, Mississippi, and was 14 when Emmett Till -- another 14-year-old African-American boy -- was abducted and brutally killed for allegedly whistling at a white woman in 1955. Brown was so affected by the news that he reached out to civil rights activist Medgar Evers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mr. Evers said to me, ‘Amos, don’t just be mad. Be smart,' ” Brown recalled. So Brown organized the first youth chapter of the NAACP in Mississippi. He became a Freedom Rider, and at Morehouse College he was one of eight students in the only college class Martin Luther King, Jr. ever taught.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Brown became pastor of Third Baptist Church in 1976, the Western Addition, which is the larger neighborhood that includes the Fillmore District, was undergoing rapid changes as part of a federal policy of urban renewal. Starting in the 1950s, the city used eminent domain to displace thousands of families, mostly African-American, to rebuild large portions of the neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637869\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11637869 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/12/CA_ThirdBaptist_17-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Elaine Buchanan raises her hands in praise during the service at Third Baptist Church in the Fillmore District of San Francisco on Nov. 5, 2017. \u003ccite>(Brittany Greeson/WGBH and The GroundTruth Project)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“They called it urban renewal; we call it urban removal,” said church member Williams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown said it more plainly: “They had to find a scheme of public policy to get rid of us, and that was when redevelopment emerged, which was actually black removal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Census data show the African-American population in San Francisco beginning to grow in the 1940s, when war-related jobs drew many from the South, and peaking in 1970 at 13 percent. From 1970 to 2010, the city’s African-American population dropped by half.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Church member Lois Carmack-Winder declined to give her age but said Third Baptist had not yet moved to its current location when she started attending at age 4 or 5, after her family moved to San Francisco from Louisiana.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now there’s nowhere else to move because we can’t afford it,” said Carmack-Winder, who now lives in East Bay, but commutes in every Sunday for church. “African-Americans can no longer live in San Francisco.

The median rent for a one-bedroom unit is $3,390, according to a recent report by the rental site Zumper. San Francisco saw the biggest increase in income inequality of any U.S. city from 2010 to 2015.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“San Francisco is not the city of love anymore,” said Paulet Gaines, a salon owner in the Fillmore District who plans to close up shop. “The demographics has changed. It’s no longer African-American or black-owned businesses, black-owned residing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gaines says she lived in the neighborhood 13 years ago. At that time, her rent was $800 a month. That apartment now rents for $5,000 a month, which is still well under market, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her father’s apartment nearby saw a more dramatic jump. When he died in 2016, he had been paying $872. Two weeks later, the apartment was rented out at $10,500 a month, she said. “No new amenities, no parking, no anything.”\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/LkXjH5YcKlc'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/LkXjH5YcKlc'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>“I am going to close because I don’t have the traffic,” she said, noting that most of her African-American customers have left the neighborhood. “I'm here every day, and people just walk by, and it's -- nothing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown sees a literal sign of gentrification in the banners that hang down Fillmore Street, installed by a local merchants association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Now they have the superficial cotton-candy sign up there, ‘Feel more in the Fillmore,’ but black people have nothing to feel,” he said. “Public policymakers, they have broken up the cultural enclaves in the African-American community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As neighborhoods become less recognizable to longtime residents, it’s not only high rent that encourages people to leave, says Malo Andre Hutson, an associate professor of city and regional planning at the University of California.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/1jFinxJ9sog'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/1jFinxJ9sog'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>“People start to say, 'Well, my barbershop is now gone’ or ‘The place I used to go eat at is gone,' and then people start to move,” Hutson said. “People not having the same institutions that they used to go to, the cultural institutions, the faith-based institutions ... that has a big impact on people's social relationships, the overall fabric of the community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The landmark designation of Third Baptist Church is part of a trend Malo is seeing across the U.S., as a way for neighborhoods to resist gentrification and preserve their culture and history. But saving buildings isn’t enough, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The congregation may still be moving away, and then they commute in, and so you need a multi-prong strategy,” he said, including economic opportunities, affordable housing and preserving local institutions and businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rev. Brown says the landmark status helps cement the church’s role in a neighborhood that has changed drastically. At the signing ceremony, he said, “Because of this designation it will forever be known that Third Baptist was here, was reckoned with and made a difference in the lives of people for the better.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But he offered to get additional items to craft homemade bombs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agent asked Jameson to make a video or written statement \"for the brothers,\" according to the affidavit, and Jameson responded later that day, \"It is written.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Monday, Jameson allegedly sent the agent photographs and a map of the Pier 39 area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The affidavit says an FBI employee mistakenly called Jameson's cellphone later that day from an identifiable, Washington, D.C., phone number.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"After Jameson answered in apparent Arabic language, the FBI employee immediately terminated the call,\" the affidavit says. \"Shortly afterwards, Jameson called the 202 telephone number, which resolves to a voice mail identifying the name (but not employing agency) of [the] user of the 202 telephone.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later on Monday, Jameson appeared to try to back out of the plot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Jameson told [the undercover agent], 'I also don't think I can do this after all. I've reconsidered,' \" according to the affidavit. \"'In Sha Allah one day I can. But I can't.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FBI served a search warrant at Jameson's Modesto home on Wednesday, where agents recovered two rifles, a handgun and ammunition, as well as a will allegedly executed by Jameson in November and the letter an undercover agent asked him to write.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You all have brought this upon yourselves,\" the letter allegedly states. \"We have penetrated and infiltrated your disgusting country. These Acts will continue until the Lions of Islam overtake you.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The charge of attempting to provide material support to a terrorist organization carries a maximum 20-year prison sentence, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for California's Eastern District, which is prosecuting the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attempts to reach someone at Jameson's home were unsuccessful. It's unclear if he is represented by an attorney.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today, our incredible law enforcement officers have once again helped thwart an alleged plot to kill Americans,\" U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions said in a written statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Acting San Francisco Mayor London Breed said in a statement that there are no additional known threats to the city, and local police officers will increase their presence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Thanks to the diligent efforts of the FBI and local law enforcement agencies, a planned attack has been prevented from occurring in our city,\" Breed said. \"We will not allow the thwarted attempts of one dangerous individual to disrupt our way of life. We will remain vigilant and continue to protect our city from any threat.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Read the criminal complaint and affidavit below.\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>As the tallest building in San Francisco, Salesforce Tower is the new center of the city skyline. And as soon as January, the top of the tower will also become a work of public art created by San Francisco visual artist Jim Campbell, 61.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the day, cameras installed around San Francisco will record movements like waves crashing on Ocean Beach, trees blowing in Golden Gate Park, and pedestrians crossing Market Street. At night, the images will be projected onto the top of Salesforce Tower like a visual diary of the day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The permanent installation is called “Day for Night.” Campbell says he named it after the filmmaking technique where a scene is lit during the day to make it look like it is night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salesforce Tower is 1,070 feet tall and has 61 floors of office space wrapped in glass. But the top six floors, called the crown, are wrapped with over a hundred and thirty perforated aluminum panels. The components in “Day For Night” are installed directly into these panels, with about eighty pixels bolted to each aluminum panel. In total, over 11,000 pixels will create a hundred-foot tall circular LED screen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campbell says during a trip to Hong Kong, he watched the skyline blaze and blink like an elaborate LED light show, and thought that it wasn’t a very pleasant aesthetic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So a part of me was: ‘why am I creating this thing that I don’t necessarily believe in from an urban planning perspective?’ he recalls. “On the other hand, I took that as a challenge, and said: ‘Okay, what can I do in this skyline that will work, that will fit in without completely changing the skyline?’ I really don’t want to do something that I would call spectacular. I don’t want it to be flashy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637551\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-800x798.jpg\" alt=\"Artist's rendering of the "Day for Night" installation atop Salesforce Tower in San Francisco.\" width=\"800\" height=\"798\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637551\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-800x798.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-160x160.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-1020x1017.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-960x957.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-240x239.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-375x374.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-520x519.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower-150x150.jpg 150w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/SalesforceTopTower.jpg 1114w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artist’s rendering of the “Day for Night” installation atop Salesforce Tower in San Francisco. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of the artist and Boston Properties)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>To start, Campbell changed the way the pixels are mounted by turning them inward. On the buildings in Hong Kong, the pixels face away from the building, shining bright light into the sky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Salesforce Tower, they extend outward from the panels — like camping headlamps on selfie sticks — and shine light back at the aluminum panels, creating a soft glow against the gray aluminum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The moving images will be low-resolution, kind of blurry, so you might not be able to determine what the image is at first glance. As far as Campbell knows, it’s the first time pixels have been installed this way on a building and the first time public art will become part of the city skyline in this way. But even he isn’t completely certain about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I see this more and more as a big experiment,” he says. “What could go wrong is that people don’t want to see an image in the sky. We don’t know. Do you know if you want to or not? I don’t.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘Unachievable High Plateau’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Today, Campbell’s artwork hangs in major museums worldwide. His public art is installed in places like Grace Cathedral, the San Diego Airport, Dallas Cowboys Stadium and Battery Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as a kid, becoming an artist was never a possibility. He grew up in a lower-middle-class suburb of Chicago and says, “I never met an artist, so I never knew it was an option.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637554\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Jim Campbell (R) and Sean McGowen on the roof of Salesforce Tower before the crown was built.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637554\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-240x135.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-375x211.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-520x293.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jim Campbell (R) and Sean McGowen on the roof of Salesforce Tower before the crown was built. \u003ccite>(Courtesy Jim Campbell)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>He graduated from MIT in 1978 with degrees in mathematics and electrical engineering. In Silicon Valley, he worked on algorithms to convert standard definition TV images into high-definition TV images. In his spare time, he created digital art in a studio converted from his Potrero Hill home’s garage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was doing art for at least ten years before I called myself an artist,” he says. “I always had artists on this unachievable high plateau.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He stopped doing what he considers “serious engineering,” but still designs the electronic components used in his art, including the pixels used on Salesforce Tower.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of Campbell’s work has explored the boundaries of perception. And with “Day for Night,” he wants to challenge what we expect to see in a skyline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s an interesting public-art challenge,” he explains, “in that a million people are going to see this at night, whether they want to or not. So it’s a challenge, to have it fit in, have it be subtle, have it be engaging, changing, and dynamic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>San Francisco’s Anti-High Rise History\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>San Francisco has hardly been a city to embrace changes to its skyline. In the 1960s, where residents saw natural hills downtown, developers saw opportunity. Big, boxy buildings shot-up without oversight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joshua Switzky, a lead planner with the San Francisco Planning Department, says a backlash against tall office buildings took root among critics and residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That created the planning framework to more consciously shape the city’s skyline based on public values and intention, and not on private initiative,” Switzky says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That framework, he says, was called the Downtown Plan. “That plan required that tall buildings taper as they got taller and emphasized more delicate and interesting tops of buildings,” Switzky says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To avoid refrigerator-like buildings, the plan required tops to be complex, decorative, sculptured, intricate, expressive. Architects bristled. Allan Temko, San Francisco Chronicle’s architecture critic at the time, quipped that San Francisco wouldn’t need architects, but milliners. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Putting silly hats on tops of buildings,” Switzky explains, “and there certainly are buildings that that’s probably a fair representation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An “anti-high rise” movement was born. Back then, Tim Redmond was a reporter for the progressive publication, The San Francisco Bay Guardian. Today he’s the editor of 48hills.org, the Guardian’s online successor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Redmond says the movement wasn’t against high-rises or how they looked. “It was more than that. It was an urban-environmental movement that wanted reasonable, rational planning in the city.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you do commercial office development, you attract workers to those buildings. How are they going to get there? Where are going to live? What’s going to happen if they need emergency services? And who’s going to pay for all of that?” Not the developers, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637556\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-800x485.jpg\" alt=\"A view from Dolores Park of the San Francisco skyline with the Salesforce Tower in the center.\" width=\"800\" height=\"485\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637556\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-160x97.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-240x146.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-375x227.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-520x315.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A view from Dolores Park of the San Francisco skyline with the Salesforce Tower in the center.\u003cbr> \u003ccite>(TORBAKHOPPER/Flickr)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>We sat in Dolores Park overlooking Mission residential neighborhoods in the foreground with the downtown skyline rising beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Thirty years ago there were low income working class people living here,” he said. “And most of them are gone and that’s because of what I see right over their heads.

And as soon as January, the top of the tower will also become a work of public art created by San Francisco visual artist Jim Campbell, 61.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the day, cameras installed around San Francisco will record movements like waves crashing on Ocean Beach, trees blowing in Golden Gate Park, and pedestrians crossing Market Street. At night, the images will be projected onto the top of Salesforce Tower like a visual diary of the day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The permanent installation is called “Day for Night.” Campbell says he named it after the filmmaking technique where a scene is lit during the day to make it look like it is night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salesforce Tower is 1,070 feet tall and has 61 floors of office space wrapped in glass. But the top six floors, called the crown, are wrapped with over a hundred and thirty perforated aluminum panels. The components in “Day For Night” are installed directly into these panels, with about eighty pixels bolted to each aluminum panel. In total, over 11,000 pixels will create a hundred-foot tall circular LED screen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Campbell says during a trip to Hong Kong, he watched the skyline blaze and blink like an elaborate LED light show, and thought that it wasn’t a very pleasant aesthetic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

On the buildings in Hong Kong, the pixels face away from the building, shining bright light into the sky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Salesforce Tower, they extend outward from the panels — like camping headlamps on selfie sticks — and shine light back at the aluminum panels, creating a soft glow against the gray aluminum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The moving images will be low-resolution, kind of blurry, so you might not be able to determine what the image is at first glance. As far as Campbell knows, it’s the first time pixels have been installed this way on a building and the first time public art will become part of the city skyline in this way. But even he isn’t completely certain about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I see this more and more as a big experiment,” he says. “What could go wrong is that people don’t want to see an image in the sky. We don’t know. Do you know if you want to or not? I don’t.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘Unachievable High Plateau’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Today, Campbell’s artwork hangs in major museums worldwide. His public art is installed in places like Grace Cathedral, the San Diego Airport, Dallas Cowboys Stadium and Battery Park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as a kid, becoming an artist was never a possibility. He grew up in a lower-middle-class suburb of Chicago and says, “I never met an artist, so I never knew it was an option.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637554\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Jim Campbell (R) and Sean McGowen on the roof of Salesforce Tower before the crown was built.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637554\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-240x135.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-375x211.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/JimCampbell-520x293.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jim Campbell (R) and Sean McGowen on the roof of Salesforce Tower before the crown was built. \u003ccite>(Courtesy Jim Campbell)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>He graduated from MIT in 1978 with degrees in mathematics and electrical engineering. In Silicon Valley, he worked on algorithms to convert standard definition TV images into high-definition TV images. In his spare time, he created digital art in a studio converted from his Potrero Hill home’s garage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was doing art for at least ten years before I called myself an artist,” he says. “I always had artists on this unachievable high plateau.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He stopped doing what he considers “serious engineering,” but still designs the electronic components used in his art, including the pixels used on Salesforce Tower.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of Campbell’s work has explored the boundaries of perception. And with “Day for Night,” he wants to challenge what we expect to see in a skyline.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s an interesting public-art challenge,” he explains, “in that a million people are going to see this at night, whether they want to or not. So it’s a challenge, to have it fit in, have it be subtle, have it be engaging, changing, and dynamic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>San Francisco’s Anti-High Rise History\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>San Francisco has hardly been a city to embrace changes to its skyline. In the 1960s, where residents saw natural hills downtown, developers saw opportunity. Big, boxy buildings shot-up without oversight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joshua Switzky, a lead planner with the San Francisco Planning Department, says a backlash against tall office buildings took root among critics and residents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That created the planning framework to more consciously shape the city’s skyline based on public values and intention, and not on private initiative,” Switzky says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That framework, he says, was called the Downtown Plan. “That plan required that tall buildings taper as they got taller and emphasized more delicate and interesting tops of buildings,” Switzky says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To avoid refrigerator-like buildings, the plan required tops to be complex, decorative, sculptured, intricate, expressive. Architects bristled. Allan Temko, San Francisco Chronicle’s architecture critic at the time, quipped that San Francisco wouldn’t need architects, but milliners. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Putting silly hats on tops of buildings,” Switzky explains, “and there certainly are buildings that that’s probably a fair representation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>An “anti-high rise” movement was born. Back then, Tim Redmond was a reporter for the progressive publication, The San Francisco Bay Guardian. Today he’s the editor of 48hills.org, the Guardian’s online successor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Redmond says the movement wasn’t against high-rises or how they looked. “It was more than that. It was an urban-environmental movement that wanted reasonable, rational planning in the city.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you do commercial office development, you attract workers to those buildings. How are they going to get there? Where are going to live? What’s going to happen if they need emergency services? And who’s going to pay for all of that?” Not the developers, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637556\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-800x485.jpg\" alt=\"A view from Dolores Park of the San Francisco skyline with the Salesforce Tower in the center.\" width=\"800\" height=\"485\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637556\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-160x97.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-240x146.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-375x227.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/TowerFromPark-520x315.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A view from Dolores Park of the San Francisco skyline with the Salesforce Tower in the center.\u003cbr> \u003ccite>(TORBAKHOPPER/Flickr)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>We sat in Dolores Park overlooking Mission residential neighborhoods in the foreground with the downtown skyline rising beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Thirty years ago there were low income working class people living here,” he said. “And most of them are gone and that’s because of what I see right over their heads.
