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.",

She led a number of high profile groups, including the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgmc.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus\u003c/a> and a homeless choir in San Francisco called \u003ca href=\"http://www.singersofthestreet.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Singers of the Street\u003c/a> (SOS).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McGuire was inspired to launch SOS by a fellow Australian choral conductor, \u003ca href=\"http://www.jonathonwelch.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jonathon Welch\u003c/a>, who’s started two homeless choirs himself, in Australia. He also came up with the idea for \u003cem>Street Requiem\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf_exeHB9JA?list=PLwHx0O0gnxuj3Vnf5RZBtImSqzAGvjQrK]”There are so many people who die on the streets every year, who nobody mourns, and nobody knows their name,” McGuire says. \u003cem>Street Requiem,\u003c/em> she says, “is really about the experience of the person on the street, and yes, trying to put the audience, as well as the performers, into a different mindset.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Street Requiem\u003c/em> draws from multiple musical traditions, foremost among them Roman Catholic religious music. The “Requiem Æternam” movement, or “Eternal Rest” in Latin, for instance, is a prayer asking God to hasten the journey souls take from purgatory to heaven.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve taken some core elements of the traditional requiem, but we’ve put it into modern vernacular,” McGuire says. “We’ve also taken out some of the very overtly Christian language to try and make it more accessible to people of faith but not a specific religion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Excerpt from “Ubi Caritas – Charity and Love”\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is it that scares you when it’s change I’m looking for?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is it that scares you that make you bar the door?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is it that scares you when my hand’s stretched out this way?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is it that scares you that makes you turn away?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ubi caritas et amor deus ibi est.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>(Where there is charity and love, there you will find the spirit of God.)\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Street Requiem\u003c/em> also addresses the multiple ways people die on the street across the world every day — not just as a result of exposure to the elements, but also through crime and government oppression. One of the most touching movements, “Gloria,” includes a phrase from the Zulu language commonly sung at South African funerals and demonstrations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Senzeni na means ‘What have I done?’ or ‘What have we done?'” McGuire says. “It also means, ‘What have we done, as a society, to each other?'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McGuire is not the only musician involved in the project who feels the homeless crisis applies to all of us. That’s why the Bay Area-based, internationally renowned mezzo-soprano Frederica von Stade is involved in the San Jose and Santa Cruz performances of \u003cem>Street Requiem\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12685633\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12685633\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-800x450.jpg\" alt='\"The more you go back to [Street Requiem], the more you discover new levels of depth,\" says Daniel Hughes, artistic director and conductor of The Choral Project in San Jose. \"The depth of emotions I have to this music and the issues just continues to increase.\"' width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-768x432.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-1180x664.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-960x541.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-240x135.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-375x211.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-520x293.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">“The more you go back to [Street Requiem], the more you discover new levels of depth,” says Daniel Hughes, artistic director and conductor of The Choral Project in San Jose. “The depth of emotions I have to this music and the issues just continues to increase.” \u003ccite>(Photo: Rachael Myrow/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“It’s not very hard to end up on the street.” says von Stade, who has performed \u003cem>Street Requiem\u003c/em> in Dallas, San Mateo, San Francisco and with an Australian choir at Carnegie Hall. “Nobody’s that different than we are.

She led a number of high profile groups, including the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgmc.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus\u003c/a> and a homeless choir in San Francisco called \u003ca href=\"http://www.singersofthestreet.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Singers of the Street\u003c/a> (SOS).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McGuire was inspired to launch SOS by a fellow Australian choral conductor, \u003ca href=\"http://www.jonathonwelch.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jonathon Welch\u003c/a>, who’s started two homeless choirs himself, in Australia.

The “Requiem Æternam” movement, or “Eternal Rest” in Latin, for instance, is a prayer asking God to hasten the journey souls take from purgatory to heaven.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve taken some core elements of the traditional requiem, but we’ve put it into modern vernacular,” McGuire says. “We’ve also taken out some of the very overtly Christian language to try and make it more accessible to people of faith but not a specific religion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Excerpt from “Ubi Caritas – Charity and Love”\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is it that scares you when it’s change I’m looking for?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is it that scares you that make you bar the door?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is it that scares you when my hand’s stretched out this way?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is it that scares you that makes you turn away?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ubi caritas et amor deus ibi est.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>(Where there is charity and love, there you will find the spirit of God.)\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Street Requiem\u003c/em> also addresses the multiple ways people die on the street across the world every day — not just as a result of exposure to the elements, but also through crime and government oppression. One of the most touching movements, “Gloria,” includes a phrase from the Zulu language commonly sung at South African funerals and demonstrations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Senzeni na means ‘What have I done?’ or ‘What have we done?'” McGuire says. “It also means, ‘What have we done, as a society, to each other?'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McGuire is not the only musician involved in the project who feels the homeless crisis applies to all of us. That’s why the Bay Area-based, internationally renowned mezzo-soprano Frederica von Stade is involved in the San Jose and Santa Cruz performances of \u003cem>Street Requiem\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12685633\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-12685633\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-800x450.jpg\" alt='\"The more you go back to [Street Requiem], the more you discover new levels of depth,\" says Daniel Hughes, artistic director and conductor of The Choral Project in San Jose. \"The depth of emotions I have to this music and the issues just continues to increase.\"' width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-768x432.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-1180x664.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-960x541.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-240x135.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-375x211.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2017/01/RS23888_Photo-Jan-23-7-27-40-PM-001-qut-520x293.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">“The more you go back to [Street Requiem], the more you discover new levels of depth,” says Daniel Hughes, artistic director and conductor of The Choral Project in San Jose. “The depth of emotions I have to this music and the issues just continues to increase.” \u003ccite>(Photo: Rachael Myrow/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“It’s not very hard to end up on the street.” says von Stade, who has performed \u003cem>Street Requiem\u003c/em> in Dallas, San Mateo, San Francisco and with an Australian choir at Carnegie Hall. “Nobody’s that different than we are.

But some municipalities are experimenting with ways to solve that problem. In San Jose, California, voters passed a set of sweeping pension reforms back in 2012. The public employee unions fought back in court. Now a new initiative passed this November may offer a compromise that works.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a rainy day in October. Three recruiting officers from the San Jose Police Department are standing behind a table in a bustling room on a nearby public university campus. Today is the school’s career fair and the SJPD booth is covered in schwag–stickers, pens, even tiny bottles of hand sanitizer–emblazoned with the Department’s logo. They’re hoping job-seekers will stop and apply.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11245181\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11245181\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/12/deputy_chief_michael_knox_-_ali_budner_499x665.jpg\" alt=\"Deputy Chief Michael Knox.\" width=\"400\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/12/deputy_chief_michael_knox_-_ali_budner_499x665.jpg 499w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/12/deputy_chief_michael_knox_-_ali_budner_499x665-160x213.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/12/deputy_chief_michael_knox_-_ali_budner_499x665-240x320.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/12/deputy_chief_michael_knox_-_ali_budner_499x665-375x500.jpg 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Deputy Chief Michael Knox. \u003ccite>(Ali Budner/Capital Public Radio)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Deputy Chief, Michael Knox says staffing numbers are at a dangerous low. In fact, he says they’re down at least 300 street-ready officers right now. “It causes us to put an enormous amount of stress on the existing staff,” Knox says “to make up for everyone who has left this department.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He blames the exodus mostly on a watershed moment back in 2012. That’s when San Jose voters passed \u003ca href=\"http://www.mef101.org/Resources/12-0605%20-%20Measure%20B%20-%20Pension%20Plan%20Amendments.pdf\">local ballot measure B\u003c/a>. The initiative poured vinegar into the sweet tea of public worker compensation deals by making sweeping cuts to retirement pensions. Current employees would have to pay more for their retirement benefits or take a less generous pension. New employees would be offered less. All public workers would lose their disability protections as well the certainty of their pensions, altogether if there was a fiscal emergency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That has made it increasingly difficult to compete with other agencies,” says Knox. “And not only to recruit but to retain our staff.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the man who pioneered Measure B — former San Jose Mayor, Chuck Reed — says pension reform was necessary.

But some municipalities are experimenting with ways to solve that problem. In San Jose, California, voters passed a set of sweeping pension reforms back in 2012.

The initiative poured vinegar into the sweet tea of public worker compensation deals by making sweeping cuts to retirement pensions. Current employees would have to pay more for their retirement benefits or take a less generous pension. New employees would be offered less. All public workers would lose their disability protections as well the certainty of their pensions, altogether if there was a fiscal emergency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The other person, of course, is the guy who came up with the concept, New York artist \u003ca href=\"https://vimeo.com/benrubin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ben Rubin.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The hope is that someone would look up and say: ‘What is that?’ ” Ben says. “What is that thing trying to say, you know? What is its message?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The name of this installation is San Jose Semaphore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Semaphore, by definition, is really a form of visual communication,” Siri explains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Way back when, the only way to communicate surreptitiously over a short distance — say, from land to a ship — would be to rely on flag bearers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They would hold up the flag, and depending on the position of the flag, would let them know if it was safe to come in, or better to stay put,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This resonates with Geoff, the KQED listener who asked the question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I actually was in the Navy, and so I remember people communicating with flags, and it was always interesting to me because it looked very official, but a lot of times, they were talking about the latest baseball scores from ship to ship and things like that,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, the short story on San Jose Semaphore is that it’s an art installation. The \u003cem>long\u003c/em> story stretches back to artist Ben Rubin’s childhood in Boston during the 1970s. Back then, he owned a Heathkit shortwave radio. Sometimes, when he turned it on, he’d hear the strangest things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These sort of clicks and beeps and mechanized announcements,” Ben says. “Who could not listen to an encrypted message and not wonder what it says, you know?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As NPR reported in a 2000 feature for the “Lost and Found Sound” series, these were \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP5J9-D7_jw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">numbers stations\u003c/a>, shortwave radio broadcasts that historians believe transmitted messages to spies stationed around the world, starting in World War I.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To the average listener, the letters, numbers and songs broadcast on the stations sound random. But if you have the key to decode the gobbledygook — it’s a message.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QnXPqUU6fI0]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ben was fascinated by these numbers stations. So when it came time for college, he got a bachelor’s degree in computer science and semiotics, the study of signs and symbols. After graduation, he starting making art inspired by his studies. Now he makes media installations using technology, sound, images and physical structures — like the piece on the top of Adobe’s building in San Jose.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Silicon Valley Loves A Challenge\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Each of these orange discs can assume four positions: horizontal, left-leaning diagonal, vertical, right-leaning diagonal.

The other person, of course, is the guy who came up with the concept, New York artist \u003ca href=\"https://vimeo.com/benrubin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ben Rubin.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The hope is that someone would look up and say: ‘What is that?’ ” Ben says. “What is that thing trying to say, you know? What is its message?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The name of this installation is San Jose Semaphore.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Semaphore, by definition, is really a form of visual communication,” Siri explains.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Way back when, the only way to communicate surreptitiously over a short distance — say, from land to a ship — would be to rely on flag bearers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They would hold up the flag, and depending on the position of the flag, would let them know if it was safe to come in, or better to stay put,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This resonates with Geoff, the KQED listener who asked the question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I actually was in the Navy, and so I remember people communicating with flags, and it was always interesting to me because it looked very official, but a lot of times, they were talking about the latest baseball scores from ship to ship and things like that,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, the short story on San Jose Semaphore is that it’s an art installation. The \u003cem>long\u003c/em> story stretches back to artist Ben Rubin’s childhood in Boston during the 1970s. Back then, he owned a Heathkit shortwave radio. Sometimes, when he turned it on, he’d hear the strangest things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These sort of clicks and beeps and mechanized announcements,” Ben says. “Who could not listen to an encrypted message and not wonder what it says, you know?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As NPR reported in a 2000 feature for the “Lost and Found Sound” series, these were \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP5J9-D7_jw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">numbers stations\u003c/a>, shortwave radio broadcasts that historians believe transmitted messages to spies stationed around the world, starting in World War I.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To the average listener, the letters, numbers and songs broadcast on the stations sound random. But if you have the key to decode the gobbledygook — it’s a message.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\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/QnXPqUU6fI0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/QnXPqUU6fI0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ben was fascinated by these numbers stations. So when it came time for college, he got a bachelor’s degree in computer science and semiotics, the study of signs and symbols. After graduation, he starting making art inspired by his studies. Now he makes media installations using technology, sound, images and physical structures — like the piece on the top of Adobe’s building in San Jose.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Silicon Valley Loves A Challenge\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Each of these orange discs can assume four positions: horizontal, left-leaning diagonal, vertical, right-leaning diagonal.

Former City Councilman Pete Constant is the association’s vice president.

He says it’s not a repudiation of his flagship legislation but rather an affirmation. He says it locks in savings from the previous Measure B and shields them from the threat of litigation.\u003c/p>\n\n",
