"bio": "Pat Yollin has written about lots of stuff, including organ transplants, wayward penguins at the San Francisco Zoo, the comeback of the cream puff, New York on the fifth anniversary of 9/11, a Slow Food gathering in Italy, and the microcredit movement in Northern California. Among her favorite stories: an interview with George Lucas at Skywalker Ranch that broke the story about his plan to build a cultural museum, and a pirate Trader Joe's operation in Vancouver that prompted the grocery chain to sue -- and lose. She joined KQED in 2013 and was previously a reporter and editor at the San Francisco Chronicle, the Hearst-owned San Francisco Examiner and the Hayward Daily Review.",

You know — the annual event hosted by tech sector news sites TechCrunch, Gigaom and VentureBeat to celebrate success and innovation in the technology world. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of Oliver’s commentary in his introductory standup got a little attention: He cast a comically critical eye on gentrification and the Google bus issue. But the audience, at least, seemed to take the critique in stride, if its laughter is anything to judge by. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s a partial transcript of his introduction:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I don’t get what is happening here. Why do you need an awards ceremony in the tech industry? What more adulation — you already have almost all the money in the world. Why do you need awards as well after that? It is absolutely ridiculous!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’re no longer the underdogs. It’s very important that you realize that. You’re not the scrappy people that people get behind. It used to be people in the tech industry were emotional shut-ins who you could root for. Now those days are gone. You’re pissing off an entire city. Not just with what you do at work, but how you get to work. [Lots of laughter and some cheers.] It’s not easy to do that. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I heard the latest design for your buses was to use tinted windows but reverse, with the tint on the inside, the reason being, ‘Look, I don’t mind if the peasants see me. I would rather not see them.’ \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’re being accused of over-gentrifying a city that was already the most expensive city to live in in America — that’s not mathematically possible! You’re gentrifying something that was already gentrified three times before you. You can’t gentrify it any more without going full circle and turning this into a shithole.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And more coverage here: \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Known as “\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/San-Francisco-supervisors-pass-ban-the-box-law-5204942.php\">ban the box\u003c/a>,” a newly approved proposal by Supervisor Jane Kim will mean that job applicants no longer have to disclose their criminal history until after they have participated in a live interview. And public and private agencies will be limited in how that information can be used to place people in below-market-rate housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know that having a stable job and housing are the two most critical factors that reduce recidivism,” Kim said at last Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting when the bill received unanimous approval. “This is truly historic civil rights legislation for San Francisco.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kim said the ordinance is the first of its kind “that covers affordable housing, below-market-rate units, contractors with the city and private employers with 20 or more employees.” She said her office worked with nonprofit organizations, business leaders and law enforcement to create a proposal with broad support and that it will give people a fair chance that they have previously been denied.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> One in four adults has an arrest record, and they have few opportunities to find jobs. \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“I believe that it will begin to help eliminate the conscious — and more importantly the unconscious — bias that exists when hiring and housing individuals with a conviction history,” Supervisor Malia Cohen said. “This legislation is not designed to give individuals a preference. Rather it’s to ensure they are judged on their qualifications, not their previous actions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One in four adults has an arrest record, and they have few opportunities to find jobs, Kim said.

Known as “\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/San-Francisco-supervisors-pass-ban-the-box-law-5204942.php\">ban the box\u003c/a>,” a newly approved proposal by Supervisor Jane Kim will mean that job applicants no longer have to disclose their criminal history until after they have participated in a live interview. And public and private agencies will be limited in how that information can be used to place people in below-market-rate housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know that having a stable job and housing are the two most critical factors that reduce recidivism,” Kim said at last Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting when the bill received unanimous approval. “This is truly historic civil rights legislation for San Francisco.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kim said the ordinance is the first of its kind “that covers affordable housing, below-market-rate units, contractors with the city and private employers with 20 or more employees.” She said her office worked with nonprofit organizations, business leaders and law enforcement to create a proposal with broad support and that it will give people a fair chance that they have previously been denied.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\"> One in four adults has an arrest record, and they have few opportunities to find jobs. \u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“I believe that it will begin to help eliminate the conscious — and more importantly the unconscious — bias that exists when hiring and housing individuals with a conviction history,” Supervisor Malia Cohen said. “This legislation is not designed to give individuals a preference. Rather it’s to ensure they are judged on their qualifications, not their previous actions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The man was walking west across Sunset Boulevard near Yorba Street just before 11 a.m. when he was hit by a southbound Toyota Corolla, Esparza said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The man went through the car's windshield and was pronounced dead at the scene. Three women who were inside the car were injured and taken to a hospital. Their injuries are not considered life-threatening, Esparza said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday's victim was the second pedestrian killed by a driver in San Francisco this year and the eighth since Dec. 1. The spike in fatalities has prompted calls for quick action to make the streets safer, an issue that the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency board addressed at its meeting early Tuesday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board passed a resolution that calls for both short-term and long-term action to reduce the pedestrian toll. The plan involves a two-year program to improve safety at the city's 24 most dangerous intersections. The resolution also expressed support for \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfmta.com/sites/default/files/agendaitems/2-4-14%20Item%2010%20Vision%20Zero.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Vision Zero\u003c/a>,\" a long-term strategy to eliminate traffic fatalities of all kinds by 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City officials say Vision Zero would build on current city safety initiatives.

The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency has received a $3 million grant to improve traffic signaling.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Nicole Schneider, executive director of pedestrian advocate Walk San Francisco, said she welcome the SFMTA resolution but says the city's safety plans aren't yet backed up by funding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We need more money for pedestrian safety,\" Schneider said. \"We need more staffing, and we need these projects to get on the ground quickly. Otherwise I'm afraid that Vision Zero is going to remain a vision and not become reality.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayor Lee hopes to put three transportation funding measures on the November ballot to fund the city's pedestrian strategy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those who live near the Sunset Boulevard intersection where Tuesday morning's fatal collision occurred said pedestrian safety there is a longtime problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dick Morton and his daughter, Ailin, live nearby and told Bay City News that the six-lane thoroughfare is dangerous for pedestrians because of the lack of traffic lights at each intersection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"People can pick up quite a bit of speed,\" Dick Morton said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said pedestrian warning lights at Yorba Street haven't helped much. \"You better be wide awake and fleet of foot\" when crossing the street, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post contains reporting by KQED's Bryan Goebel and Bay City News. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

The man was walking west across Sunset Boulevard near Yorba Street just before 11 a.m. when he was hit by a southbound Toyota Corolla, Esparza said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The man went through the car's windshield and was pronounced dead at the scene. Three women who were inside the car were injured and taken to a hospital. Their injuries are not considered life-threatening, Esparza said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tuesday's victim was the second pedestrian killed by a driver in San Francisco this year and the eighth since Dec. 1. The spike in fatalities has prompted calls for quick action to make the streets safer, an issue that the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency board addressed at its meeting early Tuesday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The board passed a resolution that calls for both short-term and long-term action to reduce the pedestrian toll. The plan involves a two-year program to improve safety at the city's 24 most dangerous intersections. The resolution also expressed support for \"\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfmta.com/sites/default/files/agendaitems/2-4-14%20Item%2010%20Vision%20Zero.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Vision Zero\u003c/a>,\" a long-term strategy to eliminate traffic fatalities of all kinds by 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The streets of San Francisco’s Chinatown were frantic but festive, teeming with people grabbing branches of quince or cherry blossoms, stocking up on citrus and trying to get ready.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All in preparation for the Year of the Horse, which arrived today. The 15-day New Year’s holiday, also known as the Spring Festival, will end on Valentine’s Day, although San Francisco’s annual \u003ca href=\"http://www.chineseparade.com\">Chinese New Year Parade\u003c/a> will take place on Feb. 15.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I lived in North Beach for 16 years and shopped in Chinatown markets almost every day, mostly on Stockton Street but also Washington, Jackson and Pacific. Just before the new year begins, I always walk around the neighborhood, partly because it has a special feel but also because I’m a procrastinator – so the Lunar New Year is my ultimate deadline for getting things done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last night, my friend \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/magazine/article/Adopting-a-homemade-tamale-tradition-3212939.php\">Lily Wong Fillmore,\u003c/a> a working linguist and retired UC Berkeley education professor, cooked lo han jai, a vegetarian Buddhist dish, for New Year’s Eve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s lots of interesting word magic in the dish,” said the San Francisco resident, whose parents were immigrants from Guangdong Province in China. “One of the ingredients, the black hairy seaweed, sounds like the word for good fortune – different tones but still a good match. My father told me long ago that the dish is made up of items gathered from the earth, air and sea. Most of them have undergone some process, such as drying, salting or transforming, as with beans into tofu and bean curd. It’s an example of humans cooperating with nature to make its gifts go further.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lo han jai is traditional on New Year’s Day itself in many Asian-American families. “My mother declared oysters to be vegetables so she could use oyster sauce in the dish,” Wong Fillmore said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the Year of the Snake slithers off, what should we expect from the Year of the Horse, or, specifically, the Wood Horse, as this year is designated? According to \u003ca href=\"http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/chinese-new-year-2014-what-the-year-of-the-horse-means-for-you-9096775.html\">a piece in The Independent today,\u003c/a> it could be “a fast year full of conflicts … when people will stick more to their principles and stand firm.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2014/jan/31/eight-things-you-probably-didnt-know-about-year-of-horse\">story in The Guardian\u003c/a> today described the equine personality: “People born in the year of the horse are said to be a bit like horses: animated, active and energetic — they love being in a crowd. They are quick to learn independence — foals can walk minutes after birth — and they have a straightforward and positive attitude towards life. They are known for their communication skills and are exceedingly witty.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The article also mentioned that those born in the Year of the Horse include former President Franklin Roosevelt, astronaut Neil Armstrong, scientist Louis Pasteur, singer Aretha Franklin and Mongol ruler Genghis Khan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The animals of the Chinese zodiac come around every 12 years and the elements that govern it — fire, earth, metal, water and wood — operate on a 60-year-cycle. These elements can be crucial in determining one’s fate.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">‘In Korea, good years for males were often not good years for females. And everyone used to love women born in the years of the rabbit, rat and sheep.’\u003ccite>Elaine Kim, UC Berkeley professor\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Elaine Kim, a professor in Asian American and Asian Diaspora Studies at UC Berkeley, said, “In Korea in the old days, women born in the Year of the Fire Horse were considered undesirable for marriage — wild, don’t stay at home by the hearth, fall in and out of love easily and thus have many men around, even cause their husbands’ deaths.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, she said, some parents lied about their daughters’ birth year, counting backward to the snake or forward to the sheep. When Kim lived in South Korea in 1966, she noticed there were few marriages until summer, ensuring that women would not give birth to a girl in the Year of the Fire Horse. Coincidence? Perhaps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In Korea, good years for males were often not good years for females,” Kim said. “And everyone used to love women born in the years of the rabbit, rat and sheep.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a less anecdotal take on the zodiac, Kim referred me to San Francisco astrologer and feng shui practitioner Edgar Sung. His forecast for the year, tailored to each zodiac sign, was detailed and not always encouraging: Rats will have a tough time. Tigers might experience the death of a loved one, and Pigs might have to deal with lots of family confrontations. But Ox people will prosper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unfortunately, even though it’s their year, horse people will face a “rocky road” in 2014, Sung wrote. They’ll have plenty of money and promotions, but those in business should watch their budgets because someone might steal from them. It’s not a good year to pass an exam, and an unexpected disaster might happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If there is any fight there will be bloodshed,” Sung said. “… To improve his luck, the Horse should do many good deeds.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_125026\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-125026\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/01/RS8464_IMG_7720-640x480.jpg\" alt=\"Grant Avenue, the main commercial strip of San Francisco's Chinatown, is decked out for the Lunar New Year.

My father told me long ago that the dish is made up of items gathered from the earth, air and sea. Most of them have undergone some process, such as drying, salting or transforming, as with beans into tofu and bean curd. It’s an example of humans cooperating with nature to make its gifts go further.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lo han jai is traditional on New Year’s Day itself in many Asian-American families. “My mother declared oysters to be vegetables so she could use oyster sauce in the dish,” Wong Fillmore said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the Year of the Snake slithers off, what should we expect from the Year of the Horse, or, specifically, the Wood Horse, as this year is designated? According to \u003ca href=\"http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/chinese-new-year-2014-what-the-year-of-the-horse-means-for-you-9096775.html\">a piece in The Independent today,\u003c/a> it could be “a fast year full of conflicts … when people will stick more to their principles and stand firm.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2014/jan/31/eight-things-you-probably-didnt-know-about-year-of-horse\">story in The Guardian\u003c/a> today described the equine personality: “People born in the year of the horse are said to be a bit like horses: animated, active and energetic — they love being in a crowd. They are quick to learn independence — foals can walk minutes after birth — and they have a straightforward and positive attitude towards life. They are known for their communication skills and are exceedingly witty.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The article also mentioned that those born in the Year of the Horse include former President Franklin Roosevelt, astronaut Neil Armstrong, scientist Louis Pasteur, singer Aretha Franklin and Mongol ruler Genghis Khan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The animals of the Chinese zodiac come around every 12 years and the elements that govern it — fire, earth, metal, water and wood — operate on a 60-year-cycle. These elements can be crucial in determining one’s fate.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">‘In Korea, good years for males were often not good years for females. And everyone used to love women born in the years of the rabbit, rat and sheep.’\u003ccite>Elaine Kim, UC Berkeley professor\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Elaine Kim, a professor in Asian American and Asian Diaspora Studies at UC Berkeley, said, “In Korea in the old days, women born in the Year of the Fire Horse were considered undesirable for marriage — wild, don’t stay at home by the hearth, fall in and out of love easily and thus have many men around, even cause their husbands’ deaths.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, she said, some parents lied about their daughters’ birth year, counting backward to the snake or forward to the sheep. When Kim lived in South Korea in 1966, she noticed there were few marriages until summer, ensuring that women would not give birth to a girl in the Year of the Fire Horse. Coincidence? Perhaps.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In Korea, good years for males were often not good years for females,” Kim said. “And everyone used to love women born in the years of the rabbit, rat and sheep.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a less anecdotal take on the zodiac, Kim referred me to San Francisco astrologer and feng shui practitioner Edgar Sung. His forecast for the year, tailored to each zodiac sign, was detailed and not always encouraging: Rats will have a tough time. Tigers might experience the death of a loved one, and Pigs might have to deal with lots of family confrontations. But Ox people will prosper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unfortunately, even though it’s their year, horse people will face a “rocky road” in 2014, Sung wrote. They’ll have plenty of money and promotions, but those in business should watch their budgets because someone might steal from them. It’s not a good year to pass an exam, and an unexpected disaster might happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Muzaffar came to the city on New Year’s Eve, his lawyer, Graham Archer says, with the express intent to drive passengers for the company’s UberX ride service and had already completed one trip.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolan’s lawsuit (embedded in full below) picks up the story there:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>19. … [A]t just before 8:00pm, HUAN KUANG was walking home in San Francisco with her two children, ANTHONY LIU, who was 5 years old, and SOFIA LIU, who was 6 years old.\u003cbr>\n20. They approached the intersection of Polk Street and Ellis Street. When the light was green for them to walk, they began to cross Polk Street within the crosswalk.\u003cbr>\n21. As they were in the cross-walk, with the signal green for them to walk, a vehicle driven by Defendant SYED MUZZAFAR turned right from Ellis Street and collided with HUAN KUANG, ANTHONY LIU and SOFIA LIU.\u003cbr>\n22. The collision caused the wrongful death of SOFIA LIU, and caused serious and significant physical and mental injuries to the other Plaintiffs in this action.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Muzaffar was arrested \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/01/02/122446/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">on suspicion of vehicular manslaughter\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the accident, Uber quickly acknowledged that “a partner” had been involved in the accident and was equally quick to say that the partner wasn’t working for the service when he struck the pedestrians, a statement intended to distance the company from liability. But Muzaffar was logged on to the Uber app and awaiting another customer, his attorney says, meaning that in essence he was engaged in company business and should be covered by the company’s $1 million liability insurance policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolan contends in the suit filed today that Muzaffar was not only logged on to the app at the time of the accident, but was “viewing, monitoring and/or interacting with his wireless communications device/smartphone/GPS at or near the time of the collision.” The complaint alleges that Uber’s app requires drivers to violate the California law that seeks to address distracted driving by banning the manual operation of mobile phones, GPS devices and the like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suit also takes on Uber’s suggestion that it has no liability because Muzaffar was not in active service at the time he struck Sophia Liu. The complaint notes that, like any other startup, the company’s business model depends on attracting more users. To be able to deliver on its promise of prompt service, the suit say, the company needs a “significant number” of drivers available to provide rides. “Therefore,” the suit says, “regardless of whether a DRIVER actually has a USER in their car, is on the way to a USER who has engaged the DRIVER through the APP, or simply is logged on to the APP as an available DRIVER, UBER, and/or RASIER LLC and/or RAISER-CA LLC and/or Does 1-10 and 21-30 derives an economic benefit from having DRIVERS registered on the service.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolan \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/01/15/watch-jahi-mcmath-lawyer-discusses-case/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">also represents the family of Jahi McMath\u003c/a>, the brain-dead Oakland teenager who last month went to court to fight a hospital’s attempt to remove her from a ventilator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s the lawsuit in a version uploaded by The New York Times:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"doc_13342\" src=\"//www.scribd.com/embeds/202550537/content?start_page=1&view_mode=scroll&show_recommendations=true\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"100%\" height=\"600\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Reach Dan Brekke at \u003ca href=\"mailto:dbrekke@kqed.org\">dbrekke@kqed.org\u003c/a> or (415) 553-2176.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

But Muzaffar was logged on to the Uber app and awaiting another customer, his attorney says, meaning that in essence he was engaged in company business and should be covered by the company’s $1 million liability insurance policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolan contends in the suit filed today that Muzaffar was not only logged on to the app at the time of the accident, but was “viewing, monitoring and/or interacting with his wireless communications device/smartphone/GPS at or near the time of the collision.” The complaint alleges that Uber’s app requires drivers to violate the California law that seeks to address distracted driving by banning the manual operation of mobile phones, GPS devices and the like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The suit also takes on Uber’s suggestion that it has no liability because Muzaffar was not in active service at the time he struck Sophia Liu. The complaint notes that, like any other startup, the company’s business model depends on attracting more users. To be able to deliver on its promise of prompt service, the suit say, the company needs a “significant number” of drivers available to provide rides. “Therefore,” the suit says, “regardless of whether a DRIVER actually has a USER in their car, is on the way to a USER who has engaged the DRIVER through the APP, or simply is logged on to the APP as an available DRIVER, UBER, and/or RASIER LLC and/or RAISER-CA LLC and/or Does 1-10 and 21-30 derives an economic benefit from having DRIVERS registered on the service.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dolan \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/01/15/watch-jahi-mcmath-lawyer-discusses-case/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">also represents the family of Jahi McMath\u003c/a>, the brain-dead Oakland teenager who last month went to court to fight a hospital’s attempt to remove her from a ventilator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s the lawsuit in a version uploaded by The New York Times:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"doc_13342\" src=\"//www.scribd.com/embeds/202550537/content?start_page=1&view_mode=scroll&show_recommendations=true\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"100%\" height=\"600\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Reach Dan Brekke at \u003ca href=\"mailto:dbrekke@kqed.org\">dbrekke@kqed.org\u003c/a> or (415) 553-2176.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
