"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.",

(Photo: Rachel Dornhelm/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>San Francisco City College’s “\u003ca href=\"http://www.riveramural.com/\">Pan American Unity Mural\u003c/a>” is Diego Rivera’s largest contiguous work of art.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s sprawling in size AND content. There are images of Yaqui Deer Dancers and early California gold miners, heavy engines of the industrial age, and front and center is \u003ca href=\"http://www.google.com/search?q=frida+kahlo\">Frida Kahlo\u003c/a> — who remarried Rivera in San Francisco while he completed the work.\u003cbr>\nWilliam Maynez is one of the mural’s historian at the college. He says Rivera started the mural as both a bridge between cultures and a comment on the duality of art and science.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In the center of the mural you have an emblem which is basically a hood ornament for the whole thing” says Maynez. “Half of it is a stamping machine that Rivera previously painted \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=103337403\">for the Fords in Detroit\u003c/a>. And on the other half is an Aztec goddess \u003ca href=\"http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/123205/Coatlicue\">Coatlicue\u003c/a>. It speaks to dualities … to yin and yang.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This mural was originally painted on Treasure Island and was intended for City College from the start. But the college building to house the mural was never built. World War II had started and steel and concrete were scarce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the mural was put in storage until 1961 when the college brought it out to hang in the entryway of the student theater.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Maynez says the space is just too small. “You should be able to get as far away from a work of art as it is wide,” he says. “Well this is 74 feet wide and you can only get back 14 feet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He compared seeing the mural up close to viewing it through a keyhole. He says so many nuances of the work are hard to absorb up close.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The college wants to construct a new building that could house the mural appropriately, ideally as part of a new arts complex across the street. But funds for the building, and for moving the enormous piece of art, are needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s part of the reason Carlos Felix, the Consul General of Mexico in San Francisco, signed a memorandum of understanding with Dr. Don Griffin the president of City College.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Felix says the Mexican government is happy to help with fundraising for a new building, and also provide expertise on the conservation of the mural: “We have experts for preservation of that characteristic that is contained in the mural.” He says they also have experts in moving murals like these.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Felix says he especially appreciates the artwork’s message of unity between Mexico and the US: “The message [Rivera] wanted to express in 1940, is still right now well something that is alive and we need to continue spreading that message.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Felix, pointing to panels about the ancient culture of Mexico, alongside a portrayal of Charlie Chaplin in ‘The Great Dictator,” says the historical breadth of the piece is also amazing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So you see the components too about the Nazis,” Felix says “So that this is a strong message about how it is necessary not to forget bad things in the future.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first bit of work towards finding a new home for the painting starts in June, when workers will knock a small hole in the wall supporting the mural to feed in a fiber optic cable and confirm how the pieces of the fresco are mounted.

He says Rivera started the mural as both a bridge between cultures and a comment on the duality of art and science.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In the center of the mural you have an emblem which is basically a hood ornament for the whole thing” says Maynez. “Half of it is a stamping machine that Rivera previously painted \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=103337403\">for the Fords in Detroit\u003c/a>.

But the college building to house the mural was never built.

But funds for the building, and for moving the enormous piece of art, are needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s part of the reason Carlos Felix, the Consul General of Mexico in San Francisco, signed a memorandum of understanding with Dr. Don Griffin the president of City College.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Felix says the Mexican government is happy to help with fundraising for a new building, and also provide expertise on the conservation of the mural: “We have experts for preservation of that characteristic that is contained in the mural.” He says they also have experts in moving murals like these.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Felix says he especially appreciates the artwork’s message of unity between Mexico and the US: “The message [Rivera] wanted to express in 1940, is still right now well something that is alive and we need to continue spreading that message.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Felix, pointing to panels about the ancient culture of Mexico, alongside a portrayal of Charlie Chaplin in ‘The Great Dictator,” says the historical breadth of the piece is also amazing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So you see the components too about the Nazis,” Felix says “So that this is a strong message about how it is necessary not to forget bad things in the future.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first bit of work towards finding a new home for the painting starts in June, when workers will knock a small hole in the wall supporting the mural to feed in a fiber optic cable and confirm how the pieces of the fresco are mounted.

I've run the Bay to Breakers twice -- I registered, I trained, heck -- \u003ca href=\"http://www.jerryricefootball.com/content/page-138.html\" target=\"_blank\">Jerry Rice\u003c/a> even handed me my post-race drink one year. I've also \"done\" the Bay to Breakers several times, meaning I didn't register, but rather joined halfway along the route, and sampled adult beverages along the way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By far, I had more fun the years I ran. There's something about struggling up the \u003ca href=\"http://youtu.be/iA_kZzmW-A0\" target=\"_blank\">Hayes Street Hill \u003c/a>only to be passed by an elderly man in a \u003ca href=\"http://store.americanapparel.net/rsac309.html\" target=\"_blank\">gold lamé miniskirt\u003c/a> that's just awesome. Humbling, but awesome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And let's not forget the cheering crowds which merge into one giant house party. Music pumps out of open doors and windows, on-lookers dance on jam-packed stoops, and strangers cheer one another with Dixie cups of beer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No other race comes close to being this spirited. Seeing the costumes alone is worth the price of entry (which was \u003ca href=\"http://sfbay.craigslist.org/search/?areaID=1&subAreaID=&query=bay+to+breakers&catAbb=sss\" target=\"_blank\">rather steep\u003c/a> this year).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But as exhilarating as the race atmosphere is, I've stayed away from B2B the past few years, largely because it simply got disgusting. I grew tired of Muni buses that smelled like puke, of the mob mentality that, yes, justified public fornication, and the trashing of a park that I bicycle through everyday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But I'm back this year. Why? Well, I'm not sure exactly -- probably because it's \u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/photos/ingbaytobreakers/show/\" target=\"_blank\">the 100th year of the race\u003c/a>, and because the race bridges the time gap between the half marathons on my calendar and helps keeps me in shape.

This Sunday marks the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanfranciscosentinel.com/?p=124224\">100th anniversary\u003c/a> of the event, a 12 kilometer (that’s about 7.5 miles for the metrically challenged) race with a reputation for being just a tad \u003ca href=\"http://sfist.com/2011/05/09/should_your_hide_alcohol_on_your_bo.php\">debaucherous\u003c/a>. But organizers swear this year will be safe, swift, and still quintessentially-San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent years \u003ca href=\"http://wp.nopna.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/b2b_ntf_summary_rev4.pdf\">neighborhood groups\u003c/a> have claimed that the event is out of control, citing belligerent runners (err rather stumblers), public urination, and lots of beer cans. Last year’s \u003ca href=\"http://sfappeal.com/news/2011/04/bay-to-breakers-now-with-sober-tents.php\">race\u003c/a> left 30 tons of trash behind and had 26 ambulance trips to the hospital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So now, the race’s for-profit organizer, \u003ca href=\"http://zazzlebaytobreakers.com/\">Zazzle\u003c/a>, says they’re \u003ca href=\"http://www.baytobreakers100.com/\">“serious.”\u003c/a> They’ve banned alcohol, floats, and unregistered runners. The city has joined in declaring that drunks will be sent to\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfexaminer.com/local/bay-breakers/2011/04/drunks-will-be-detained-tents-during-san-franciscos-zazzle-bay-breakers-r\">“sobering tents,”\u003c/a> and that unregistered runners will be subject to criminal charges. There’s also some pretty, ah, unique campaigns such as the \u003ca href=\"http://sfist.com/2011/05/11/bay_to_breakers_reveals_potty_hero.php\">“potty hero”\u003c/a> that rewards people who use the 1,200 port-a-potties stationed along the course.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this isn’t the first time the city has warned of a crack down. Last year, even though the city issued similar threats, the police arrested \u003ca href=\"http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local/san_francisco&id=7445237\">less than a dozen people\u003c/a>, in a race with more than 60,000 runners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Would-be-crashers are complaining that the registration policy isn’t fair and a bit silly when people can easily buy a registration number on \u003ca href=\"http://sfbay.craigslist.org/search/?areaID=1&subAreaID=&query=bay+to+breakers&catAbb=sss\">Craigslist\u003c/a> to the \u003ca href=\"http://zazzlebaytobreakers.com/index.php?page=runners-walkers\">sold-out\u003c/a> event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite all the safety talk, many folks are still planning to get their party on, preparing their \u003ca href=\"http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=Bay+to+Breakers&f=hp\">costumes\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://sfist.com/2011/05/05/should_you_run_bay_to_breakers_with.php\">contraband efforts\u003c/a>. Meanwhile, the San Francisco Department of Public Works is preparing street sweepers, cleaning machines, and \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfdpw.org/Modules/ShowDocument.aspx?documentid=1183\">asking\u003c/a> for volunteers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zazzle is also showcasing historical photos of the race at the \u003ca>Expo\u003c/a>.\u003cbr>\nUseful links:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://zazzlebaytobreakers.com/uploads/pdf/2011b2bcourse.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Course Map\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://zazzlebaytobreakers.com/index.php?page=start-line-map-and-wave-start-info\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Start line/Corral map\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://zazzlebaytobreakers.com/index.php?page=transportation-parking\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Transportation and parking\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfmta.com/cms/malerts/SFMuniBaytoBreakers.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Detailed Muni information\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://zazzlebaytobreakers.com/index.php?page=costume-contest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Costume contest details\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.marthastewart.com/photogallery/no-sew-costumes#slide_1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">No-sew costume ideas\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

This Sunday marks the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sanfranciscosentinel.com/?p=124224\">100th anniversary\u003c/a> of the event, a 12 kilometer (that’s about 7.5 miles for the metrically challenged) race with a reputation for being just a tad \u003ca href=\"http://sfist.com/2011/05/09/should_your_hide_alcohol_on_your_bo.php\">debaucherous\u003c/a>. But organizers swear this year will be safe, swift, and still quintessentially-San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent years \u003ca href=\"http://wp.nopna.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/b2b_ntf_summary_rev4.pdf\">neighborhood groups\u003c/a> have claimed that the event is out of control, citing belligerent runners (err rather stumblers), public urination, and lots of beer cans. Last year’s \u003ca href=\"http://sfappeal.com/news/2011/04/bay-to-breakers-now-with-sober-tents.php\">race\u003c/a> left 30 tons of trash behind and had 26 ambulance trips to the hospital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So now, the race’s for-profit organizer, \u003ca href=\"http://zazzlebaytobreakers.com/\">Zazzle\u003c/a>, says they’re \u003ca href=\"http://www.baytobreakers100.com/\">“serious.”\u003c/a> They’ve banned alcohol, floats, and unregistered runners. The city has joined in declaring that drunks will be sent to\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfexaminer.com/local/bay-breakers/2011/04/drunks-will-be-detained-tents-during-san-franciscos-zazzle-bay-breakers-r\">“sobering tents,”\u003c/a> and that unregistered runners will be subject to criminal charges. There’s also some pretty, ah, unique campaigns such as the \u003ca href=\"http://sfist.com/2011/05/11/bay_to_breakers_reveals_potty_hero.php\">“potty hero”\u003c/a> that rewards people who use the 1,200 port-a-potties stationed along the course.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this isn’t the first time the city has warned of a crack down. Last year, even though the city issued similar threats, the police arrested \u003ca href=\"http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local/san_francisco&id=7445237\">less than a dozen people\u003c/a>, in a race with more than 60,000 runners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
