has cast a shadow over this year’s festivities, with fears the virus will spread when groups gather and treats are handed out. The more people interact with those outside their household, and the longer that interaction lasts, the higher the risk of getting and spreading the novel coronavirus. But there are still ways to enjoy the festivities, and Yolo
Enterprise staff writer From picking out pumpkins (and cradling ducklings and kittens) at Impossible Acres to trick-or-treating in neighborhoods throughout the city, the festivities surrounding the Halloween season are much-loved traditions for many Davis residents. But the COVID-19 pandemic
County health officials issued some guidance earlier this week on how to do so. First up: that annual trip to the pumpkin patch. Family-friendly activities this time of year usually include everything from petting zoos to corn mazes; hayrides to pumpkin picking. Not all of those activities will be available this year, but some will be, with local pumpkin patches opening this week. So how to be safe? Step one, as usual, is making
sure to use face coverings. According to the county’s guidance, all customers entering a farm or other agribusiness must wear a face covering unless they are 2 years old or younger or have other exemptions. All staff at such businesses must wear face coverings as well. Businesses themselves should provide protective equipment to staff and equip customer entrances and exits as well as check-out stations
Fall quarter classes at UC Davis began Wednesday, with nearly all of them taking place remotely due to the coronavirus pandemic. It will be the second consecutive quarter of remote learning at UC Davis, after spring quarter was moved online, and possibly a model that will remain in place for upcoming quarters. Last month, the UC system’s top health official said public health modifications, including remote learning, at UC campuses will likely need to continue at least through September of 2021. In the meantime, campus leaders are working with students and staff as well as officials from the City of Davis and Yolo County to minimize COVID-19 transmission. While some students are doing their UC Davis courses from other cities, states or countries this quarter, campus officials said they expected a large subset of the student body to be in Davis by this week. According to a survey conducted in early September, half of all UC Davis undergraduates and 70 percent of graduate students were expected to

“I am also concerned about the technology gap” he feels is evident in classrooms. “(Our students) are going to be doing remote learning — partially or completely — for a long time. Currently the school district has done a lot with hardware like hotspots and Chromebooks.” But Cullen feels those technological resources aren’t equally accessible to all students, “especially students of lower income (households).”
Davis school board candidate Andrew Cullen is running for the seat with a two-year term, serving on a district-wide atlarge basis, on the Nov. 3 ballot. And Cullen feels that there is one issue in the race that particularly stands out in his mind. “I think the (coronavirus) pandemic is a central issue right now, and many of the underlying issues (that the school board will face in the next few years) are exacerbated by it.” “I’m really concerned to make sure that teachers and students can return to their classrooms safely,” said Cullen. “I want to address the school district’s health and safety plans as (our

And Cullen feels there is still something of a technology gap that is often related to household income. “I’ve heard from lots of students from lower income households” that are using their smartphones to do schoolwork, and smartphones weren’t really designed to do this.
COVID-related economic relief measures enacted by the City Council in March will be extended again through the month of October. Both a moratorium on residential and commercial evictions and a latefee waiver on city utility bills will remain in effect for a sixth month. Under the eviction moratorium, residential and commercial landlords cannot evict renters impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic during this period of local emergency. The moratorium has affected rent payments since April 1 and will apply to Oct. 1 payments as well. Meanwhile, late fees for city utility payments will be waived for the

Briefly Car crashes, burns on tracks A vehicle caught fire Wednesday night after crashing onto the railroad tracks at Second and L streets, Davis police said. Both police and firefighters were dispatched at about 10:30 p.m. to the incident, which came in as a report of a vehicle on fire on the tracks, according to Lt. Mike Munoz. “It appeared a vehicle was traveling at a high rate of speed south on L Street, jumped the embankment at Second Street and landed on the tracks, causing significant damage to the tracks,” Munoz said. Witnesses reported seeing a woman and small child leave the crash scene on foot. Officers attempted to locate them to check on their welfare but had not found them as of Thursday morning, Munoz said.

All we need is the air that we breathe
I
must have been napping last weekend when the city I love declared an air quality emergency, leading to a temporary ban on the use of leaf blowers in town. I honestly didn’t realize the air was that bad, but I’m not about to argue with science. That’s the job of one of our current presidential candidates It’s not clear if other things — like motorized skateboards — are banned during such an emergency, but this time around, at least, the focus appears to be on leaf blowers. “The city of Davis declared an air quality emergency Saturday afternoon as smoke from wildfires blew into the region,” began The Enterprise story under Anne Ternus-Bellamy’s byline. “The emergency declaration temporarily bans the use of all leaf blowers until lifted by the city manager.” Which is as it should be. It’s not a permanent ban, but is one that can be instituted when circumstances warrant. “Conditions that lead to a ban on leaf blowers include local air quality index values over 100 (unhealthy for sensitive groups) as well as the presence of wildfire ash
The city, you see, if not really interested in having people call 911 every time someone fires up a leaf blower during a bad AQI day. Or even a bad hair day.
F and air quality forecasts. By 3 p.m. Saturday, AQI levels in some parts of the city were approaching 150, which is considered unhealthy for all groups.” Fair enough. I’ll leave the leaf blower in the garage. But wait, I don’t have a leaf blower. Or a garage. “The leaf blower ban applies to gas and electric blowers used on public and private property within the city.” I think that about covers it, though I’m not sure if we have jurisdiction over leaf blowing on federal land. Adds the story, “Anyone operating a leaf blower in violation of the temporary ban may be issued an administrative citation and be subject to fines.” And that, dear friends, is where things get interesting.
ortunately, though, the city has come up with some excellent guidelines as to how you might solve felony leafblowing behavior without calling in the authorities. Advises the city, “If your neighbor or someone working on your neighbor’s yard is using a leaf blower during a declared air quality emergency with restrictions placed on leaf blower use, you should first attempt to address the issue with your neighbor personally.” Sounds like a great way to get to know your neighbors on a Saturday afternoon. Maybe break the ice by first asking them if they plan to vote for Donald Trump. “This conversation should be polite and friendly.” Maybe approach your neighbor with a plate of homemade brownies or an ice cold adult beverage. “It can begin with a statement like ‘I’m not sure you’re aware.’ The person using the leaf blower may not know that an emergency
Retired UCD professor killed while cycling on rural road BY LAUREN KEENE Enterprise staff writer A bicyclist killed in collision with a vehicle just north of Davis on Wednesday has been identified as a chemistry professor emeritus at UC Davis. Marilyn Olmstead, 76, died at the scene of the 10 a.m. collision, which occurred on County Road 100A — which Sycamore Lane transitions into as it leaves the city limits — roughly a half-mile north of North Davis Farms Road, the California Highway Patrol reported. According to a CHP news release, Olmstead was cycling westbound on a private road as the driver, a 31-year-old Davis man, traveled northbound on County Road 100A. The CHP reported that Olmstead turned onto Road 100A “directly into the path” of the vehicle, which was traveling an estimated 40 to 45 mph. The driver attempted to veer left but struck the cyclist, causing fatal injuries. The collision remains under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to
contact the Woodland CHP office at 530-662-4685. Meanwhile, the UCD community is mourning the loss of Olmstead, who began teaching chemistry at the university in 2003. “We are heartbroken to OLMSTEAD learn that Professor EmerTaught UCD ita Marilyn Olmstead has chemistry passed away,” the UCD Chemistry Department posted on its Twitter page Thursday. “Marilyn was a world-class crystallographer and an outstanding teacher beloved by her students. She will be greatly missed.” The department’s chair, Jared Shaw, paid tribute to Olmstead by inviting others to “retweet and comment” if they knew her and had published a paper with her. “I was lucky enough to publish two!!” Shaw wrote. “If you knew her, you liked her, and if you didn’t, you missed out! We all miss you Marilyn ... rest in peace!” — Reach Lauren Keene at lkeene@ davisenterprise.net. Follow her on Twitter at @laurenkeene
Governor signs bill allowing UC Davis to sell its wine Special to The Enterprise SACRAMENTO — Gov. Gavin Newsom signed into law a proposal from state Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa, that will allow UC Davis to sell wine made by viticulture and enology students, generating funds for the university during uncertain financial times caused by the coronavirus pandemic. “This is a commonsense measure that will help us avoid waste and allow us to raise money to support a valuable academic program,” Dodd said. “It’s a no-brainer to allow these aspiring winemakers to go to market with their product. I thank Gov. Newsom for signing it into law.” UC Davis’ viticulture program was established in 1935 following the repeal of prohibition. It has since become a center

for innovation and a model of sustainability. Historically, the university disposes of wine produced by students due to a quirk in state law. Senate Bill 918, signed yesterday, continues earlier legislative efforts to change that, allowing the issuance of a sales license to a nonprofit entity to sell up to 20,000 gallons of wine a year. “We are thrilled to have this new legislation completed and signed by the governor,” said David Block, head of the viticulture department. “It has been a long path to get to the point of being able to sell wine from our winery, but the passage of this bill is the most significant hurdle. Having this legislation will truly make a significant difference in our operations, especially their environmental and fiscal sustainability.”
Fire scorches portion of landfill BY LAUREN KEENE Enterprise staff writer A fire at the Yolo County Central Landfill north of Davis early Thursday morning sent additional smoke into an atmosphere already hazy from Northern California wildfires. According to the Davis Fire Department, the fire ignited at about 1 a.m. at the County Road 28H landfill off Pole Line Road and reached about a halfacre in size, burning shredded tire materials and threatening a nearby lumber-storage area.
“Firefighters kept the fire from spreading and contained it to the shredded tire material,” fire officials posted on social media. “Around 25 firefighters battled the fire throughout the early morning hours.” Davis crews received mutual aid from the UC Davis, Woodland and West Sacramento fire departments, which sent water tenders to the fire scene and provided station coverage in the city during the incident, the cause of which remains under investigation.

“Fire units will remain on scene along with Yolo County Landfill personnel as the fire continues to smolder,” officials said. The Yolo-Solano Air Quality Management District noted on Twitter that smoke from the fire rose several hundred feet into the air and moved south. “It is not expected to cause any public nuisance, but will be visible to people in the area,” the tweet said.

has been declared and leaf blowers should not be used.” Or maybe your neighbor’s gardener left Red Bluff at 5 a.m., hoping to knock off a dozen Davis lawns and get back home in time for his daughter’s fifth-birthday party. In that case it may be best to bring a couple of rakes along with the brownies and offer to help him finish the job. However, the city notes, “Not all neighbors are going to respond to your request.” You think? People have had their front teeth knocked out for attempting to tell someone to wear a face mask before entering the grocery store, so it’s unlikely a request to turn off a leaf blower is going to be greeted with a happy face, no less compliance. “If a neighbor does not change their behavior, you have options. Contact the police department at 530 747-5400 to request an investigation.” And, after you call the cops, carefully avoid that neighbor’s potluck dish at your next neighborhood block party. — Reach Bob Dunning at bdunning@davisenterprise.net.

Virtual events (and ‘Davisville’) for the win BY AUTUMN LABBÉ-RENAULT Special to The Enterprise
D
uring the pandemic, Davis Media Access has been busier than ever. Highlighting community voices — especially those excluded from mainstream media — is what we do, and that’s played out in myriad ways over the past six months, from covering social movements and local elections, to assisting other non-profits. I’m writing this in between eight election interviews we are recording today. Through this week, we’re “in the studio” recording 26 candidate and campaign interviews, for offices ranging from school board to Congress. That actually means that my director, Diane Dedoshka, is at her home, while I am in DMA’s studio, our guests are porting in over a remote broadcast platform, and we’re all connecting to make sure that local offices get their fair share of attention. It’s a brave and challenging thing to run for office, and unfortunately, it takes money. We offer our election services for free, so that candidates at all levels can be assured of fair and non-partisan coverage. This has long been one of DMA’s essential roles. Commercial television and radio don’t cover the important down ballot races, but we have done so for more than 30 years. I give all credit to our gifted technical staff here for making my part in this look easy. My job is typically focused on big-picture tasks and relationship building, but — not to sound too Liam Neesom about it — I have a particular set of skills that I’ve dusted off during this time, and it’s found me hosting many interviews on both TV and radio. I worked as a newspaper reporter and editor for years, and it’s been a strange and wondrous thing to slide back
DAVIS MEDIA ACCESS into the journalist’s role during this time. The process has reminded me how deeply I love helping people tell their stories. I am honored to be featured in this month’s UC Davis Magazine as it highlights individuals who have been working on science-based communication. The article highlights role as producer and host of the “COVID-19 Community Report” on KDRT. These days, my ongoing challenge as DMA’s executive director is how to balance community need with lessened capacity due to the economic challenges the pandemic has wrought. DMA has helped several other local nonprofits produce once-live events on virtual platforms. A few months ago, it became clear that we had to do a hard pivot in terms of what production services we could offer the community. The result of much internal planning and wrangling is https://davismedia.org/ content/virtual-eventservices In normal times, community groups would come to us seeking event coverage for a wide variety of things. Early in the pandemic, organizations we’d partnered with before came to us and asked for help. How could Davis Parent University bring its presentations to the community? Davis Chamber of Commerce needed to replace the annual Celebrate Davis with a virtual version that highlighted its work, its membership, and the event sponsors. We were able to help both transition these events to a virtual platform. Over time, the requests for such help kept coming in, leading us to repackage what it is we can offer to nonprofits and other community-based organizations seeking help. Sometimes, they just
need footage or photos, or a public service announcement created, while others need full-blown event production. To date, we’ve also worked with First 5 Yolo, International House Davis, Mutual Housing California, NAMI-Yolo, Yolo Community Care Continuum, and the Yolo Community Foundation. The link I’ve shared outlines what services we can make available, and how to start the process. Finally, and ending on a very happy note, “Davisville,” a public-affairs interview program on KDRT, swept all three awards in its category in the 2020 Greater Bay Area Journalism Awards competition presented by the San Francisco Press Club. The winning episodes in the category of “Radio/ Audio-Non-Commercial: Public Affairs Program (Staff of 1-4)” were: First place: “Many Homeless People in Davis are Finding Homes, but More People are Becoming Homeless,” first aired July 1, 2019. Second place: “Going back to high school, sort of,” July 29, 2019. Third place: “Biotech is Changing the World, and Davis Has a Role,” Dec. 30, 2019. “Davisville” has won awards the past several years, but this is the first time the show swept its category. Hosted and produced by Bill Buchanan, “Davisville” has aired on KDRT-LP 95.7 FM since autumn 2008. He shares the awards with his brother Jim Buchanan, sound engineer for the program and part-time employee of KDRT, which is a project of Davis Media Access. Both live in Davis. — Autumn LabbéRenault is executive director of Davis Media Access.

Pets of the week Special to The Enterprise Lots of animals are waiting for “forever homes” at the Yolo County Animal Shelter, 2640 E. Gibson Road in Woodland. Among them is Sterling (A182676), a male tabby kitten. He is a little shy at first but you’ll win him over with lots of scratches to the chin and back. Sterling is a very sweet boy who will need a family willing to help him adjust to his new home. Also hoping for a good home is Sierra (A182675), Sterling’s twin sister. Sierra is a little more timid than her brother but, given some time, she will warm up and will be asking for cuddles and lots of playtime. All shelter animals are up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, and spayed or neutered. The shelter is closed to the public for nonemergencies but the staff is available to assist at 530668-5287 during new temporary hours: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. from Monday to
SACRAMENTO — Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill co-authored by Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa, that grants a one-year extension for newspapers to comply with the state’s new gigworker law, protecting the industry from financial crisis while ensuring the future of employees and journalism. “I can’t imagine what it would have been like to go through a year like 2020 without our community newspapers informing us about what’s going on,” Sen. Dodd said. “They are essential to the future of our very democracy and we must do what
we can to keep them operating. Thank you to Gov. Newsom for signing this important law.” Many newspapers face an existential crisis. Nationwide, advertising revenue has declined by more than half over the past seven years, dropping from $25 billion in 2012 to $11 billion in 2019. The coronavirus pandemic has worsened the situation. Economists predict an additional 25% decrease in 2021 because of the associated economic shutdown. “The demise of newspapers will mean lost jobs and a reduction in news coverage,” Dodd’s office said in a
news release, “from reporting on local school boards to news in our nation’s capital.” Assembly Bill 323, signed yesterday, extends the deadline for compliance with Assembly Bill 5, a new law requiring gig workers including newspaper carriers to be classified as full-time employees. Doing so would add an estimated 85% to newspaper distribution costs, forcing layoffs and newspaper closures. AB 323 gives newspapers until Jan. 1, 2022 to comply. The bill further helps the industry by giving preference to local news organizations for state agency advertising and marketing contracts.

NOTICE OF EVIDENTIARY HEARING FOR PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY’S RECOVERY OF ELECTRIC PURCHASES AND THE CALIFORNIA CLIMATE CREDIT FOR 2021 (A.20-07-002) The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) may hold an evidentiary hearing at the time and place below regarding PG&E’s application A.20-07-002. At this hearing, PG&E, consumer advocacy groups, and other parties to this proceeding testify before a CPUC Administrative Law Judge regarding PG&E’s request. The public can attend and listen to the proceeding but are not allowed to testify. WHERE AND WHEN WILL THE EVIDENTIARY HEARING BE HELD? In compliance with the Governor’s directive and CPUC’s ongoing efforts to protect customers and community members, the CPUC may determine that there will be no in-person physical location for the evidentiary hearing and may instead hold the hearing through other means such as via internet or via phone participation. Please monitor the CPUC’s daily calendar (located at www.cpuc.ca.gov) for any changes relating to the evidentiary hearing and the manner in which it will be held.

October 21, 2020
This information will be made available on the CPUC’s website at www.cpuc.ca.gov.
WHY IS PG&E REQUESTING THIS RATE INCREASE? On July 1, 2020, PG&E filed its 2021 Energy Resource Recovery Account (ERRA) Forecast application with the CPUC. PG&E requested approval of forecasts related to the following: •
Recovery of approximately $2.8 billion in costs for generating electricity and costs of buying energy from third parties to serve bundled customer load
•
Setting charges for bundled and departing load customers to recover purchased power costs for these customers, including the Power Charge Indifference Adjustment (PCIA), Ongoing Competition Transition Charge (CTC) and Cost Allocation Mechanism (CAM)
•
Compliance with government mandates recovered through the Tree Mortality Non-bypassable Charge (TMNBC)
•
The California Climate Credit to be applied twice a year for residential electric customers and once a year for residential gas customers
HOW COULD THIS AFFECT MY MONTHLY ELECTRIC RATES? Most customers receive bundled electric service from PG&E, meaning they receive electric generation, transmission and distribution services. Based on rates currently in effect, the bill for a typical residential nonCARE customer using 500 kWh per month would increase from $127.45 to $128.42, or 0.8%. Direct Access (DA) and Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) are unbundled electric service customers who only receive electric transmission and distribution services from PG&E. PG&E does not purchase energy for these customers. However, as mentioned above, this application addresses recovery of certain costs incurred before their departure. These customers also receive the benefit of the California Climate Credit. In addition, eligible nonresidential DA and CCA customers receive the benefit of the greenhouse gas allowance returns. The impact of PG&E’s application on these customers is an average increase of 2.3%. Other Departing Load customers do not receive electric generation, transmission or distribution services from PG&E. However, these customers are required to pay certain charges by law or CPUC decisions in the form of exit fees. The impact of PG&E’s application on these customers is an average decrease of -3.3%. Actual impacts will vary depending on usage. HOW DOES THE REST OF THIS PROCESS WORK? This application has been assigned to a CPUC Administrative Law Judge who will consider proposals and evidence presented during the formal hearing process. The Administrative Law Judge will issue a proposed decision that may adopt PG&E’s application, modify it, or deny it. Any CPUC Commissioner may sponsor an alternate decision with a different outcome. The proposed decision, and any alternate decisions, will be discussed and voted upon by the CPUC Commissioners at a public CPUC Voting Meeting.

A fall quarter for the history books
Three for T City Council The issue: These leaders have intellect and integrity It’s a new era in Davis politics. As if the coronavirus pandemic didn’t make things strange enough, we’re also voting for City Council by district for the first time. For twofifths of the population, this means there will be no vote at all, and the rest of us get one candidate each. This is a marked change from the days when the whole city voted on multiple candidates and radically realigns the relationship between voters and candidates. One thing has not changed, however; Davis is still fortunate to have a bevy of wellqualified, well-informed and enthusiastic office-seekers looking to serve. IN DISTRICT 2, we recommend returning Will Arnold to the council. A Davis native and Davis High graduate, he had already been involved in local politics and volunteerism for years when he first ran in 2016. Arnold doesn’t do anything halfway; when he commits to an issue, he does so with enthusiasm and sees it through to completion. A busy husband and father, he also has experience as a downtown merchant and has seen first-hand Davis’ challenges in that arena. In recent years, the oncedysfunctional City Council has been able to get down to business, and made serious progress on issues like the budget and housing. Arnold’s blend of sincerity, commitment to his own values and collaborative approach has been a key part of that evolution. Housing was his priority in 2016 and, as he told The Enterprise in August, “We addressed that head-on. We approved a number of rental (market rate and affordable) housing projects and I’m very proud of that.” Now he has his eye on more diverse housing projects. For his commitment to the community, for his level-headed approach to problemsolving, and for his compassion and enthusiasm, we are proud to back Will Arnold for District 2. IN DISTRICT 3, we can’t help but be impressed by the work Lucas Frerichs has put in. Another DHS graduate, a truly involved community member, Frerichs has the best interests of this city at heart in every action he takes. The impression one gets speaking to Frerichs is high energy and rapid-fire delivery of ideas. Like Arnold, he’s been a part of the council’s transition into a more businesslike and effective entity. Looking back on his previous eight years, Frerichs cited as his proudest moments cofounding Valley Clean Energy, the locally governed clean energy provider for Davis, Woodland and unincorporated areas of the county; working with colleagues to approve and then build the Woodland-Davis Surface Water Project; and replacing the aging wastewater treatment plant. He has been Davis’ representative on the Sacramento Area Council of Governments and was elected board chair in January of this year, taking an opportunity to give Davis a voice in regional issues. We hope Davis voters agree with us and return Frerichs to office. IN DISTRICT 5, South Davis, attitudes are different on the matter of district elections. Where most Davis voters (and politicians) are, at best, ambivalent about the change, those south of Interstate 80 are embracing an opportunity to emerge from what they see as decades of neglect in local politics. Enter Rochelle Swanson, who served two terms under the old system and then walked away to focus on family as her youngest approached graduation. Now energized by the possibility of bringing more attention to South Davis issues, she’s reapplying for her old job. We think she deserves it. Her time on the council was marked by recovery from a recession and turmoil over policing. Davis, all of Davis, could use her experience on those matters. “It’s a perfect storm of things that have come together that I’m uniquely qualified for,” Swanson told us in September. We agree, and hope to see her on the council after November.
he 2020-21 academic year kicked off at UC Davis this week, and we’re ready for all that lies ahead. Remote instruction and remote working continue to define how we’re operating. Just a fraction of students are living in campus housing as we continue to endure the COVID-19 pandemic. Even with these necessary precautions, we’re more determined than ever to move UC Davis’ mission forward. We’re committed to connecting with the community, continuing our traditions in this age of virtual events and doing our part to shape a better tomorrow. Our faculty and researchers are addressing the effects of climate change and working urgently to be part of the COVID-19 solution. UC Davis continues to launch its students to great success. In fact, Washington Monthly just ranked us second among the country’s universities for social mobility. So, we move ahead and keep rising to the top — all while doing so as safely as possible. I hope you’ve heard by now
of Aggie ingenuity. Even if we can’t meet in large groups, we’re still showcasing campus activities in fun and creative ways.
about the Healthy Davis Together initiative. This is a coordinated effort between UC Davis and the city of Davis to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the Davis community. It includes public health messages, increased COVID-19 screening and other measures to encourage positive behaviors and lower the risk of spread. In a recent development, Healthy Davis Together is testing residents of the Greek houses as part of an effort to prioritize highrisk environments. Healthy Davis Together is all about teamwork and working together for the common good, two things that we do well here in Davis. I’m confident that we’ll help make a difference and serve as a role model for other college towns around the country. In the meantime, we’re heading into fall with plenty
Though the Robert and Margrit Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts is closed for now, UC Davis students and Mondavi Center Members can enjoy a new series of livestreamed events via HomeStage. They include Amirah Sackett & MR MiC connecting the dots between hip-hop and Muslim traditions on Oct. 7, performances of Beethoven by the Alexander String Quartet on Oct. 18 and much more.
T
he Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art is also keeping artistry thriving at UC Davis. A Nov. 19 online event pays homage to Wayne Thiebaud, the legendary UC Davis art faculty member who turns 100 in November. The webinar will preview the upcoming exhibition, “Wayne Thiebaud Influencer — A New Generation,” which is scheduled for January and includes works from former students and contemporary artists.
We’re also adapting to the times during the upcoming “Aggie Spirit Week” from Oct. 10-17. After all, October is the traditional homecoming month for UC Davis, a time for Aggies from the past and present and all our friends to celebrate. This time, we’ll be doing so online. Virtual campus tours, entertainment, meet-andgreets with alumni and many other events are on tap. We hope you’ll come join us from the comfort of your couch or home office. That’s just a small sample of what UC Davis has planned over the coming weeks. You’ll also be hearing soon about a historic UC Davis campaign that will make you expect even greater things from our university in the future. In the meantime, I hope you continue to mask up and stay safe. Let’s keep moving forward with a sense of purpose and compassion. Who knows what these coming months have in store, but by working together I know we’ll rise to the occasion. — Gary May is chancellor of UC Davis; his column is published monthly.
LETTERS Lucas and Will As a planning commissioner, I am proud to endorse Lucas Frerichs and Will Arnold for City Council. Will and Lucas both supported the Planning Commission’s unanimous recommendation against the University Commons redevelopment project, demonstrating that they carefully listen to neighborhood concerns. They recognized that the project is too large for the site, and that the city has approved more than enough large, student-oriented housing projects in recent years. Lucas, once again, recently displayed his commitment to broad public participation by successfully advocating that the committee that will guide the new General Plan Housing Element include two at-large Council appointees. (The original proposal was for just five members; two from the Planning Commission and one each from three other commissions.) The two additional community members will bring a city-wide perspective to the Housing Element deliberations. Lucas was one of the driving forces behind formation of Valley Clean Energy, which has enabled residents like me to opt for the carbon-free “Ultra Green” option. Reflecting his regional stature and constant focus on collaboration, this year Lucas has served as Chairman of the Sacramento Area Regional Council of Governments (SACOG). I can say from experience working years ago for a similar organization that election to such a position clearly signals the respect of elected officials in other jurisdictions. As stated on SACOG’s website, “Frerichs is a leading regional voice for smart growth, multi-modal transportation, public safety, economic development, and environmental sustainability.” As Lucas prepares to enter his third term and Will begins his second, I am confident that they will work together to ensure a bright future for Davis.

Vigdis Asmundson for the at-large seat. Along with school sites and State PTA leader, Lea Darrah — uncontested in her D2 race — these strong and savvy women will bring depth and diversity to our school district. For Los Rios Community College District Area 4: Experienced teacher and community organizer, Kelly Wilkerson. She’ll be an effective, visible representative for the entirety of the district, from Davis to West Sacramento, Clarksburg, Valley Hi and Elk Grove. For Davis City Council, D2: A fresh and articulate voice backed by lived experience, progressive leader, Dillan Horton, who will add the perspective of a new generation and renter to the dais. He declared his candidacy well before the move to District elections and has never wavered in his strong commitment to earning this seat. For D3, return Lucas Frerichs, whose reliable presence is needed in the days ahead. Finally, for Yolo County Supervisor, D4: Jim Provenza, whom I have known for over 20 years. We first worked together when he was a Davis Schools Trustee and I was the D4 Supervisor — so I know a bit about the job. His background, experience, temperament and relationships at the local, regional and state levels have helped Yolo County through some of its most difficult days, including the ones we are facing right now. For me, what sets Jim apart from many elected officials are his courage and his values. He takes a back seat to no one when he speaks up and fights for the most vulnerable among us — from his days at Legal Aid; to his groundbreaking anti-stalking legislation protecting women; to leading the charge to save the Yolo Crisis Nursery, and his direct experiences serving the elderly and those who care for them. I proudly support him. Mariko Yamada Davis

Will we finally take action? In 2019, the teenage activist Greta Thunberg famously rebuked politicians for not treating the climate crisis as an emergency “even though our house is on fire.” Today, we must ask why they still refuse to take emergency measures even though our house is now in ashes and the toxic air is poisoning our children’s lungs. The only way we can slow down a worsening disaster is if unprecedented decisions and actions are taken at every level of government, including at city and county level. Yolo County for all good intentions has only marginally reduced its emissions in recent years (8% overall between 2008 and 2016, largely for actions taken at state rather than county level). The UN tells us that we have to reduce our emissions by 7.6% every single year between now and 2030 if we are to have a chance to keep temperature increases below 1.5 degrees. That doesn’t just mean we shouldn’t be approving any project that increases emissions (eg the DISC industrial park/ Measure B), it means we should be developing programs to make 100% renewable energy a default rather than an optional extra at Valley Clean Energy, it means a massive increase in public transit, electrifying all vehicles, changing our model of agriculture to store rather than emit carbon and much, much more. As we go into our elections, we should be asking all candidates: Are you prepared to think and act differently to address the climate crisis as an emergency? Or will we continue with empty words and partial measures while watching our landscapes, homes, and our children’s futures burn in front of our very eyes? Nick Buxton Davis

Briefly Schools size up Red Tier On Sept. 29, the state of California moved Yolo County from the Tier One, or Purple Tier status, into the less restrictive Tier Two, or Red Tier status (signifying a “substantial” presence of coronavirus). At this Thursday’s (Oct. 1) Davis school board meeting, trustees will hear an update from staff regarding the status of the district’s emerging “return to campus plan.” This will include specifics on how the school district is planning to serve students with the highest needs in-person. Under Red Tier status, businesses including retail stores, movie theaters, restaurants and other businesses are permitted to open on a limited capacity basis. But they must observe maximum occupancy limits that range from 50 percent maximum occupancies for retail stores and shopping centers, as well as 25 percent maximum capacity for restaurants, hotels, fitness centers and several other categories of businesses.
Davis housing update on KDRT More than six months in to the pandemic, what’s the state of the housing market in Davis? Steve and Kit Boschken, Davis real estate experts and the owners of Boschken Properties, discuss the subject with program host Bill Buchanan on the current edition of the KDRT program “Davisville.” Topics include rental vacancies, the thin supply of homes for sale, rising sales prices, the pandemic and unhealthy air from the wildfires. Almost all UC Davis classes this term are online, and that condition could well continue through the rest of the academic year. “Davisville” is broadcast on KDRT-LP, 95.7 FM Mondays at 5:30 p.m., Fridays at 12:30 p.m., Saturdays at 8:30 a.m., and Sundays at 12:30 p.m.
CreekSpeak looks at return of salmon to Putah Creek pecial to The Enterprise CreekSpeak, Putah Creek Council’s six-month series of community talks about the nature, culture and history of the region, continues with its third talk, with a discussion on the return of Chinook salmon to Putah Creek. Mackenzie Miner from Fangue Lab at UC Davis will discuss ongoing research efforts and salmon ecology in Putah Creek at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 8, via Zoom. In the past, native fish populations in Putah Creek have declined as a result of dam construction, drought and water reductions; however, since the implementation of a new wateruse plan, under the creek’s accord, there has been a resurgence of native fishes. With help from collaborators, UC Davis wildlife, fish, and conservation biology department has been
monitoring salmon activity in the creek since 2016. Since then, increasing numbers of returning adult salmon and out-migrating juveniles have been observed. The final CreekSpeak of 2020 will discusses the geology of the Berryessa and Putah Creek Watershed. Marc Hoshovsky, a local naturalist, will discuss the geological diversity of the Berryessa Region and upper Putah Creek watershed and how it evolved over time at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 15, via Zoom. The region is a remarkable submarine tectonic subduction zone now exposed on land, full of thrust faults, ophiolites, turbidites, serpentine mud volcanoes, and more. Hoshovsky likely will insert a few fun stories about local history and ecology along the way. This is the focus of a newly released book,
“Exploring the Berryessa Region: A Geology, Nature, and History Tour,” which he co-authored with Eldridge and Judy Moores, Peter Schiffman and Bob Schneider to interpret part of the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument. To attend a talk, registration must be completed online. A confirmation email will be sent that includes login information to access the Zoom meeting on the day of the talk. These talks are free to Putah Creek Council members and open to the public (registration will be capped at 100 people). A $5 donation is requested from those who have not yet joined the council. More information about the 2020 CreekSpeak schedule is available at www.putahcreekcouncil. org/calendar, or by calling the Putah Creek Council office at 530-795-3006.
CULLEN: Backs ethnic studies program From Page A1 “COVID 19 is basically putting pressure on school districts ... districts need to get Chromebooks or low-cost computers to all students. There has to be a real emphasis on network opportunities ... And there have been Comcast outages (of internet accessibility) in Davis,” as well as episodes of slowspeed internet service. “We need to partner with the city and county to address internet speeds” for students studying after school, Cullen also expressed interest in curriculum issues. “One of the things I’m interested in, on a personal level, is how we incorporate ethnic studies into the classroom curriculum. I grew up in Texas, and (therefore) missed the true history of the Civil War. It wasn’t until I was in college that I learned more about slavery (and other issues leading up to the war). I want to make sure we have history and culture
well-incorporated into our curriculum, especially with the social movements going on right now. “This has to start from an early age,” he continued. There are still children that not getting a good education about our nation’s culture and history ... I had to relearn some of what I learned as a student” after becoming a young adult. “I want to address our health and safety plans as the district returns to classroom instruction by stages,” Cullen said. The school board seat he is seeking is essentially the two-year remainder of the four-year term to which former trustee Cindy Pickett was elected in 2018. Pickett moved Chicago in Summer 2020 to start in her new job at De Paul University. While school board seats from now on will be elected on a district basis, Pickett was elected under the old at-large system, and her successor will serve in that capacity.
MORATORIUM: Rent has to be paid eventually From Page A1 month of October, meaning bills may be paid laid without additional penalty. Customers do not need to apply or submit any special forms. Additionally, the city will continue to suspend water shut-offs for both commercial and residential accounts. Provisions governing the eviction moratorium are: ■ The tenant must provide written notice to the landlord regarding inability
to pay rent because of lost income and financial impacts due to COVID-19 no later than 10 days after the rent due date. ■ The tenant must provide documentation of COVID-19 financial impacts within 30 days of the rent due date. ■ Residential landlords may not initiate a no-fault eviction unless immediately necessary because of a hazardous condition (not including any condition related to COVID-19).
OBITUARY
■ The tenant shall pay the portion of rent the tenant is able to pay. ■ The tenant is not relieved of liability for unpaid rent, which the landlord may seek after the expiration of the local emergency. ■ The tenant must pay back rent within six months of the expiration of the local emergency.

DEATH Cary Childs Boyden Feb. 20, 1945 — Sept. 11, 2020
On Friday, Sept. 11, Cary Childs Boyden, loving husband, father, grandfather and friend, passed away peacefully in his home in Davis from pancreatic cancer at the age of 75. Cary was born on Feb. 20, 1945, in Greenfield, Mass. to John and Evelyn Boyden. He grew up in the small town of Deerfield in western Massachusetts and attended Eaglebrook School and Deerfield Academy before graduating from Harvard with honors and obtaining his law degree from Georgetown University where he was an editor of the Georgetown Law Journal. Cary came from a long line of scientists and educators, including Seth Boyden, the inventor of patent leather, Uriah Boyden of the Boyden Observatory and Frank L. and Helen Childs Boyden of Deerfield Academy. However, Cary chose a different path and embarked on a 45-year legal career in Northern California where he specialized in commercial and equipment financing. During a good portion of this time, he was a partner of Boyden, Cooluris & Saxe as well as Pillsbury Madison & Sutro, now an international law firm. Among his other accomplishments, he was for decades a nationally prominent expert on vehicle leasing law beginning with his instrumental role as an architect of the Consumer Leasing Act passed by Congress and the subsequent regulations issued by the Federal Reserve Board, all of which remain the law today. A lifetime fisherman, Cary landed the catch of his life on April 20, 1975, by marrying Suzanne Ball of Fort Worth, Texas. The two settled in Davis and raised three
children, Benjamin, Kathleen and Nathaniel. Outside of his law practice and family life, Cary was passionate about fly fishing. He began fly fishing in the streams and rivers of New England before taking his ardor with him to the waters of the West Coast. A member of the Fly Fishers of Davis since the late 1970s, Cary built a rich network of friends and like-minded anglers intent on promoting the art of fly fishing, catching (and releasing) fish, and the conservation of our natural resources. Late in his angling career, Cary specialized in stillwater fly fishing. He details the methods he used on the waters of Northern California in the technical fishing biography, “Random Thoughts of a Dark-Sider.” Whether he was practicing law, helping to raise his children or gone fishing, Cary was known as a simple, direct, honest and special man. He was fond of extolling the purpose to “leave the world in a better place.” Through the hearts and minds of those he knew, Cary did just that. Cary is preceded in death by his father and mother, his sister, Kathleen and his oldest son, Benjamin. He is survived by his wife of 46 years, Suzanne, his daughter Kathleen Stacy (husband Christopher), his son Nathaniel (wife Anne), and his five beloved grandchildren: Blakely and Boyden Stacy, and Lilah, Violet and Jonathan Boyden. In lieu of flowers, the family is asking that donations be made to the Nature Conservancy, Casting for Recovery or a charity of your choice. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date when conditions are more befitting of travel, handshakes and hugs.

QUARTER: Enrollment holding steady From Page A1 be living in Davis during the fall quarter. At the time of the survey, roughly 11,000 students were already living in Davis and another 14,000 planned to move here before the start of the quarter. Total enrollment at UC Davis is expected to remain unchanged from last year at around 39,600 students. That includes roughly 9,500 new freshman and transfer students, a 5% increase from fall 2019. The reopening of college campuses has caused outbreaks across the U.S. In the lead-up to the start of the quarter at UC Davis, campus leaders encouraged the UC Davis community to do everything possible to slow the spread of the virus. “Let’s get through this quarter without the setbacks that other universities have experienced,” UC Davis Chancellor Gary S. May said in a public letter to the campus community last week. “With our late September start, we have been able to observe what worked and what did not work elsewhere. This has allowed us to adjust our plans accordingly.” A comprehensive “Campus Ready” plan released in late July details mandatory protocols like daily symptom checks, wearing face coverings and other precautions to take, particularly in shared spaces. Due to COVID-19, all oncampus residence halls are single-occupancy this quarter and no guests are permitted. Campus leaders also announced plans to test everyone on campus for COVID-19 on a weekly basis, using a quick-turnaround saliva-based test that is processed on campus. This testing has already begun, with every
student living in oncampus housing having been tested during movein week. Campus leaders have developed COVID-19 reporting protocols, which mandate that all positive test results, as well as confirmed cases of other household members, be reported through UC Davis reporting process. When a case is reported, UC Davis Medical Directors coordinate a response with Yolo County Public Health, which may include quarantine and isolation orders for individuals identified through contact tracing. Affected areas on campus will be isolated and disinfected, according to the “Campus Ready” plan. In addition to campusfocused protocols, Chancellor May and Davis Mayor Gloria Partida announced a joint effort between the city and campus called Healthy Davis Together. The goal is to “prevent the spread of COVID-19, safely reintegrate Aggies back into our community, and continue a coordinated and gradual return to regular activities,” May and Partida wrote. One aspect of the plan includes making UC Davis’ on-site COVID-19 testing widely available to Davis community members for free in the coming months. “We’re in this together,” May and Partida wrote. “We are optimistic that the combined efforts of the city of Davis, UC Davis, and each one of us will make a difference in preventing the spread of COVID-19 in this college town.” — Reach Caleb Hampton at champton@ davisenterprise.net.

TRICKS: Consider hosting a virtual Halloween in 2020 From Page A1 with sanitation products like hand sanitizer. Social distancing goes hand-in-hand with face coverings, so businesses should also limit capacity, including the number of places people can gather, such as picnic areas. “If there are tents or tables that the public can sit at or reserve, tables should be at least 6 feet apart from other tables,� the county’s guidance states. Local favorites, including Impossible Acres at 37945 County Road 31 and Bobby Dazzler’s at 23300 County Road 99D were both scheduled to open this week. Both have made modifications due to COVID. Impossible Acres has modified its barnyard area to allow for social distancing while visiting farm animals, for example, and Bobby Dazzler’s has changed its maze to a oneway trail with staggered entry to eliminate the possibility of groups running into each other, according to its website.
Trick-or-Treating Ask a child what the worst things about a COVID Halloween would be and the inability to trick or treat would probably rank at the top of the list. Door-to-door trick-ortreating is on the county’s
list of higher risk Halloween activities, but for those families who do plan to trick-or-treat this year, the county has some guidance on doing so as safely as possible, starting with going out only with members of the same household. Wear a face covering even while outdoors or wearing a costume, wash hands or use hand sanitizer often and don’t share costume props or food, the county advises. “Try not to touch doorbells or other high-touch surfaces with your bare hands,� the county guidance states. “Consider gloves, tissue or using your costume to touch these surfaces.� Walking directly up to doors is also discouraged, as occupants may be trying to distance or not wanting to come into contact with others, particularly if the lights are off. “If you do walk up to a door for candy, wait your turn so that crowding doesn’t happen,� the guidance states. Keep at least 6 feet distance from other groups in neighborhoods and “wait until you get home to inspect or eat treats.� The county also offers guidance for those households planning to hand out treats. At the top of the list: Wear face coverings any time you open a door or interact with others outside your household. Also,
consider wearing gloves if you are going to use your hands to give treats away. The county advises purchasing treats that are pre-packaged by a manufacturer rather than serving up homemade or loose treats, such as brownies or candy corn. There are a number of options for how to give out those treats, including: ■One-way trick or treating where treats or bags are lined up for trickor-treaters to grab and go from a driveway, yard or table socially distanced from the front door. ■Leaving treats in a bowl outside the front door. ■Setting up a chair and table outside so you can give out treats without opening your door.

Pandemic creates sink-or-swim moments Don’t let tough TECH OVER 60 F times get to you BY JACCI O’CONNOR AND JAY WOODS Special to The Enterprise
W
e launched our first column three years ago with a commentary on a 2017 Wall Street Journal article by Geoffrey Fowler, “Want to Get Tech Savvy? Don't Ask Your Children.� This article has been coming back to mind for us lately as we hear from clients and their loved ones. Today we invite you to revisit this popular topic with us. When the shutdowns started back in March we anticipated a drop in calls for our services, consistent with the closings and slowdowns so many small businesses have experienced. Instead, even with the restrictive safety protocols Jay and I put in place, we continue to provide services at almost pre-pandemic levels. It didn't take us long to figure out why: The pandemic and so much sheltering in place has pushed many otherwise techreluctant seniors to become more familiar and adept with computers and smartphones. Email correspondence, Facetime calls, movie streaming and “zooming� have become mainstays of our days in 2020. And for many of the most isolated seniors, tech has become a lifeline to their loved ones and to the outside world. No one wants to feel left behind, especially now. Many seniors are relying on family members, often adult children or grandchildren, to help them get up to speed with their electronics so that they can stay in touch and be informed. Sometimes this
works well — other times, not so much. We heard about a lovely 75-year-old woman whose daughter had become impatient with her after several exasperating rounds of a “how to� on her iPhone. Daughter: “Mom, I've showed you this several times already, it's not that hard.� Mom (almost at wits' end): “Remember sweetheart, I taught you how to use a spoon.� Deep frustration often results for both parties when those who grew up with smartphones and tablets try to teach those who grew up with dial telephones and cursive handwriting. And it's nobody's fault, really. We frequently hear from seniors whose adult children have been trying to help them with their electronic devices, and who feel frustrated and incapable. “I feel so stupid� are the first words we often hear when a senior arrives for help at the local senior center or at one of our classes. At the same time, we hear from their sons and daughters who are also at wits' end, because their elders “just don't get it� and they don't know what to do next. So challenging and common are these parent-child technology struggles that the Journal published that article in 2017. The article advises seniors to seek tech help from neutral third parties and to learn tech in the company of peers whenever possible. We could not agree more. If you are a selfdescribed Luddite struggling with that iPhone, table or computer, remember:
irst and foremost, you are not stupid! When you find a good (read: patient and understanding) teacher and the right learning environment, technology can be a thoroughly enjoyable adventure and challenge. And you don't have to feel like a dinosaur. Don't struggle with old, out-of-date computers and mobile devices that may have been passed down from well meaning family members. If possible, invest in an up-to-date device. Having witnessed seniors struggling with old, clunky or virus-prone computers, we echo this plea from the Fowler's article: “If you no longer want that jittery old iPad, why would you expect your mom to have a quality experience with it?� Adult children everywhere, are you listening? Do speak up when you don't understand something or need to have it repeated, and expect to feel respected when you do. Don't have someone show you how to do something by demonstrating the keystrokes or gestures for you. Instead, you do the typing, tapping, or clicking as your teacher guides you step by step. Learning by doing is almost always more effective than learning by watching someone else do it. Finally, do be with other seniors when learning new technology, because you will almost certainly discover that you are in very good company as a tech newbie and because we've never been with a class of seniors where there isn't a great deal of merriment and laughter! Humor goes a long way. Unfortunately, we are not teaching in-person classes due to the pan-
demic, but we hope to resume when the coast is clear. In the meantime, we're doing our best with remote tech help and tutoring.

Theater festival play explores racism, policing and friendship Special to The Enterprise A ripped-from-theheadlines one-act play about race, police and friendship examines the search for truth after a white police officer kills a black man. “This Is How It Happened” by Sacramento native Anthony D’Juan is being presented by Catalyst: A Theatre Think Tank through the UC Davis department of theater and dance. Free performances will be live-streamed free at 5 p.m. Thursday and Friday, Oct. 15 and 16. “Although D’Juan wrote this piece in 2015, ‘This Is How It Happened’ could not be more applicable to the issues we are facing today in our society,” said director Lyndsay Burch, associate artistic director of Sacramento’s B Street Theatre. “D’Juan has crafted incredibly rich, relatable and complex characters who draw the audience in and leave them asking important questions. After viewing this play, I believe audience members will be inspired to look at their own behavior and examine ways that they can be a part of creating positive change.” D’Juan’s works for the stage have been produced locally at the B Street Theatre and California Musical Theater (now Broadway Sacramento). Burch has developed new stage works for B Street Theatre, the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the Eugene O’Neill Theatre Center and Sacramento Theatre Company. The cast features professional actors Rob Karma Robinson, Peter Story and Danielle Moné Truitt. Undergraduate theater and

‘Enola Holmes’: The game’s afoot! Clever premise fuels this enjoyable adventure
‘Enola Holmes’ Starring: Millie Bobby Brown, Helena Bonham Carter, Henry Cavill, Sam Claflin, Louis Partridge, Burn Gorman, Adeel Akhtar, Frances de la Tour and Fiona Shaw Rating: PG-13, and quite needlessly, for occasional peril
BY DERRICK BANG Enterprise film critic I love it when it’s obvious, mere minutes into a film, that we’re in for a lot of fun. “Enola Holmes” — debuting on Netflix — is an absolutely delightful adaptation of “The Case of the Missing Marquess,” the first book in Nancy Springer’s young adult series about the hitherto unrevealed teenage younger sister of Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes. The setting is London, the year 1884: just as Sherlock is in the process of establishing his credentials, following the successful resolution of “A Study in Scarlet” and “The Adventure of the Speckled Band.” The literary Enola is plucky, intelligent and resourceful; as depicted here by Millie Bobby Brown — who shot to fame via TV’s “Stranger Things” — she’s also mischievous, endearing and quite captivating. Director Harry Bradbeer and scripter Jack Thorne don’t merely break the fourth wall; they shatter it completely, with Enola frequently pausing to address us viewers directly or to shoot us a knowing glance. That’s a tricky gimmick to employ, as it risks trivializing the story or becoming too “cute.” But Bradbeer and Brown pull it off with élan, thanks in great part to the young actress’ facility with a well-timed line of dialogue. She essentially draws us into Enola’s unfolding adventure, as if we’re well-trusted confidants. Bradbeer also spices this live-action adventure with occasional Victorian-style “stick-figure” graphics, courtesy of animators Luca De Giglio and Lucas
ALEX BAILEY/LEGENDARY PHOTO
When her mother vanishes under mysterious circumstances, Enola Holmes (Millie Bobby Brown) is forced to request help from her older brothers, Sherlock (Henry Cavill) and Mycroft (Sam Claflin) — who prove to have unacceptable plans for her future. Scapim; they’re employed much the way Terry Gilliam’s similarly retro animation bridged the comic sketches in a Monty Python TV episode. They serve here as brief history lessons, character introductions, or depictions of Enola’s deductive reasoning. She’s clever and physically adept, having been schooled in both book knowledge and jiu-jitsu self-defense skills, courtesy of her free-thinking and rather eccentric mother, Eudoria (Helena Bonham Carter). Although forced to endure the late 19th century laws and social traditions that place so many restrictions on women, Eudoria is a steadfast supporter of the suffrage cause and wants to help create a world where her daughter can have freedom and power. Carter is absolutely perfect for the role. She radiates authority, determination and calm resolve, along with a knowing gaze that bespeaks an impressive intellect. (This is, after
all, the woman who raised the world’s most famous consulting detective; we have to assume that he got some of that acumen from his mother!) The story begins as Enola wakes on the morning of her 16th birthday, and discovers that her mother has disappeared … leaving behind an odd assortment of gifts, but no apparent clue to where she has gone, or why. With her father long deceased, Enola is forced to contact her older brothers; this gives Mycroft (Sam Claflin) the excuse to insist that she be sent to a finishing school, in order to become a “proper” young lady. Claflin’s Mycroft is insufferably condescending … and perhaps a little too much so. His emotional rants also are at odds with this character’s traditionally cool and imperturbable manner, when he solves cases, Nero Wolfe-style, from within the confines of his Diogenes Club. (I guess Claflin’s overly excitable Mycroft hasn’t yet developed those sensibilities.)
Although acknowledging the wisdom of his older brother’s decision, Sherlock (Henry Cavill) is much more sympathetic to Enola’s plight. Cavill, a sly smile frequently in evidence, plays the role with humanity and kindness; we get a sense that Sherlock admires his younger sister’s outspoken boldness, even as he regretfully recognizes that she has few options (or so it would seem). Enola, having enjoyed her rich, free-spirited childhood, is horrified by the notion of being bound by corsets and customs. At the earliest opportunity, she disguises herself as a boy and escapes via train, bound for London; she’s determined to find her mother, now armed with a few clues gleaned from those unusual birthday presents. (Enola and her mother love puzzles and word games, and she frequently reminds us that her name, backwards, spells “alone.” Bradbeer depicts such anagrammatical activities onscreen, with Scrabble-like tiles.)
Enola winds up in a compartment that contains a young man also hiding from pursuers: floppyhaired Lord Tewkesbury, Marquis of Basilwether (Louis Partridge). At first, Enola assumes that Tewkesbury is merely running away from home for some rebellious reason; she’s therefore shocked when a silently menacing pursuer — Burn Gorman, quite malevolent as Linthorn — tries to murder the lad. One hair’s-breadth escape later, despite not wanting to be distracted from the search for her mother, Enola has her first case: Who’s trying to kill Tewkesbury … and why? Matters are further complicated by the necessity of staying one step ahead of Mycroft and Sherlock, who — with the assistance of a young Inspector Lestrade (Adeel Akhtar) — are determined to catch Enola, and return her to the finishing school run by stuffy, discipline-minded Miss Harrison (Fiona Shaw, suitably imperious). Brown and Partridge
work well together. His playfully charismatic Tewkesbury is as hapless in the real world — thanks to an overly sheltered upbringing — as the far more sophisticated Enola is confident. She initially finds him maddeningly vulnerable, but mortal peril gradually stiffens the young man’s spine. Their relationship also takes a mildly flirtatious turn, which both actors with cute awkwardness. Although Bradbeer’s tone is mostly light and larkish, the menace — personified by Linthorn — is palpably life-threatening; he’s a truly nasty character who keeps popping up unexpectedly. Thorne retains the novel’s spirit and key plot points, while deftly condensing lesser events; Bradbeer and editor Adam Bosman maintain a pace lively enough to justify the film’s 123-minute running time. Production designer Michael Carlin and costume designer Consolata Boyle ensure that the film’s look is faithful to its Victorian setting. The result is the best family-friendly adventure that I’ve seen in quite a while. Check it out right away, and — if so inclined — watch it more than once; we want Netflix suitably encouraged to turn this into a franchise. — Read more of Derrick Bang’s film criticism at http://derrickbang. blogspot.com.

‘An Accidental Studio’: An essential amusement What happened when a Beatle got bitten by the movie bug? BY DERRICK BANG Enterprise film critic The British film industry was in dire straits in the early 1980s. From the late 1950s through the 1970s, between 90 and 120 films had been made each year; the average Briton watched 11 per year. Only 23 films were made in 1982, and average attendance was down to 0.4. The primary culprit: corporate consolidation. The industry was controlled by just two major studios — Rank and EMI — both of which green-lit only “safe” projects. Today’s multiplicity of indie studios and production companies hadn’t yet arrived. “Rank and EMI famously said no,” recalls film journalist Terry Ilott, “to almost everything that was interesting.” Rescue arrived from a completely unexpected direction. Indeed, said resurrection had begun a few years earlier. Bill Jones, Kim Leggatt and Ben Timlett explore the 11-year reign of George Harrison’s HandMade Films in “An Accidental Studio” — available via Amazon and other streaming services — a thoroughly engaging documentary that charts this brief Renaissance in British cinema. The former Beatle became a hero in his native land, lauded for having “saved” the British film industry. The saga is depicted via contemporary talking heads and archival interviews with scores of the major filmmakers and stars involved: Michael Caine, Richard E. Grant, Bob Hoskins, Neil Jordan, Cathy Tyson, Brenda Vaccaro and the entire Monty Python
‘An Accidental Studio’ Starring: George Harrison, Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam, Michael Caine, Bob Hoskins and lots of other folks Rating: TV-PG, for no particular reason troupe, among many others. There’s also considerable footage of Harrison, revealing him as the most quietly relaxed mogul the industry ever produced. (If this documentary kindles your curiosity, you’ll also want to read Robert Sellers’ equally delightful 2013 book, “Very Naughty Boys: The Amazing True Story of HandMade Films.”) HandMade’s origin was as cheeky as its first project. Harrison had gotten to know Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam and the other Pythons; he considered them good friends. Following the success of 1975’s “Monty Python and the Holy Grail,” the gang secured a deal with EMI to make their next project, “Monty Python’s Life of Brian.” With locations scouted and pre-production underway, EMI severed the arrangement just as filming was about to begin. (As the Pythons collectively recall, EMI’s chairman, Bernard Delfont, “finally read the script.” And was appalled.) When Harrison learned what happened, he impulsively offered to finance the film himself. What he didn’t admit, until later, was that he mortgaged his home to do so. (“That,” Eric Idle quipped, “was the most anybody’s ever paid for a cinema ticket in history.”) The gamble paid off; due in

part to the controversy it ignited, “Life of Brian” was a massive hit … and, just like that, Harrison became a film producer. He and his business manager, American attorney Denis O’Brien, cofounded HandMade Films, named by Harrison after an old British paper mill. Famed rock percussionist Ray Cooper, shown in archival footage banging drums behind Elton John, was hired as creative director; he
proved quite adept at it. Gilliam created the cute company logo. HandMade went three for three during the next two years. Their first distribution deal was for 1980’s “The Long Good Friday,” recognized today as one of the finest British gangster films ever made; it made Bob Hoskins a star, and similarly elevated costar Helen Mirren. Then Harrison and O’Brien were presented with a completely daft proposal by Gilliam and Palin. (That was the thing, as several of this documentary’s participants recall: You could come up
with the craziest idea, and Harrison would say yes … and then leave you alone. “If something’s really good,” he says, at one point, “it deserves to be made.”) The resulting slice of cinematic lunacy, “Time Bandits,” spent four weeks as the No. 1 box office hit in the States, ultimately grossing $36 million in the U.S. and Canada alone, on a $5 million budget. Harrison wrote and performed several songs for that fantasy, as he would do with other HandMade projects, over the next several years. Indeed, he loved that

This year will look a little different from Art Farms in the past, but will hold the same spirit of bringing the beauty of the farmlands and artistic expression to the community. Artwork inspired by Yolo County farmlands including work created on Art and Ag project farm sites throughout Yolo County will once again be available for harvest and auction at this year’s special event. At least 101 works by 71 artists will be featured at the event for harvest and auction. The exhibition’s juror is California-based artist, Randall Sexton, who is nationally known for the color and expressive brushwork in his oil paintings of “everyday” scenes. Originally from rural New England, Sexton transplanted to San Francisco, after completing a bachelor’s degree from the University of Connecticut, Storrs, in 1980. Since then, he has been a fixture in the Bay Area art scene, with a reputation as an inspiring teacher and collectable fine artist. For 10 years, he held a position
with the San Francisco Academy of Art. He teaches private workshops and classes including for Pixar Studios. This year, he’ll be teaching at California College of Art in Oakland. The Art Farm Live Stream Celebration can be enjoyed from the comfort of home, where participants will “harvest” artwork, bid on the silent auction, watch video presentations and enjoy music by DJ Char Ramos. The live event will be hosted by Yolo County farmer Frank Muller. Picnic boxes will be prepared and provided by Kitchen 428 and Savory Café, along with special treats from Nugget Markets, Food 4 Less and Capay Valley Lavender. General admission tickets for two people are $75, which include two individually packed picnic boxes and the opportunity to bid on juried silent auction art. For $10, participants can purchase a watch-and-bid ticket that includes the opportunity to bid on juried silent auction art and watch the Art Farm Live Stream Celebration. To purchase tickets, go to yoloarts.org or email ya@ yoloarts.org. Proceeds will support YoloArts’ Art & Ag program, The Yolo Land Trust and Yolo Farm to Fork. The art available for bid can be

STUDIO: HandMade invigorated the British film industry From Page B2 part of the business, and also popped up occasionally, in tiny uncredited roles. When the informal relationship with the Pythons concluded, HandMade began to cast a wider net. Subsequent major releases included 1982’s “The Missionary” and 1984’s “A Private Function,” both with Palin and Maggie Smith; 1986’s “Mona Lisa” (another EMI cast-off ), with Hoskins and Cathy Tyson; 1987’s “Withnail and I,” with Richard E. Grant (his film debut) and Paul McGann; and that same year’s “The
Lonely Passion of Judith Hearne,” with Hoskins and Smith. Unfortunately, 1987 also was the year that HandMade produced “Shanghai Surprise,” an infamous — and expensive — bomb with Sean Penn and Madonna. By this point, O’Brien was pulling HandMade into more of a corporate direction, and dictating his (terrible) artistic opinions over Harrison’s smaller, wiser approach; new projects — some of them made in the States — reflected poor judgment and performed dismally. With the financial writing on the wall,
HandMade ceased to exist after the release of 1990’s “Nuns on the Run,” starring Idle and Robbie Coltrane. (This documentary fails to mention that Harrison subsequently sued O’Brien for $25 million, citing fraud and negligence, and ultimately won a $11.6 judgment.) That sad demise notwithstanding, everybody interviewed here looks back on their experiences with giddy enthusiasm; there’s a distinct sense that lunatics loved running this particular asylum. Harrison clearly was having a great time. Even some of the flops — such as Michael Caine’s
starring turn in director Dick Clement’s “Water” — are recalled with rueful humor. And there’s no question that HandMade invigorated the British film industry, paving the way for the many unusual, out-of-thebox projects subsequently made by freshly minted indie production companies. Ironically, such recognition came later; many of the above-mentioned films — most notoriously, “A Private Function” and “Withnail and I” — weren’t well regarded during their initial release. (Go figure.) And all because George Harrison adored the Pythons.

COURTESY PHOTO
“The Designer’s Critical Alphabet” is created by Lesley-Ann Noel, who will give the “Alberini Family Lecture in Design” on Nov. 6.
The second annual Winters Theatre Company 10-Minute Play Festival will be produced in an online podcast format, debuting on Saturday, Jan. 23, on the WTC website at winterstheatre.org. The podcast format provides a way to produce the festival in a COVIDsafe environment, as well
as opportunities for playwrights, directors, and actors to interact with a new format. The completed podcast will consist of two acts of four plays each, similar in format to the live performances at the Winters Theatre Company inaugural 10-Minute Festival in January of this year. The Winters Theatre Company welcomes
10-minute scripts from playwrights. There is no specific theme and each playwright can submit up to three scripts. A complete list of submission requirements, and contact information, is posted at winterstheatre.org. The deadline for submissions is 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 6.
UC DAVIS: Noon concerts can be seen online starting this month Sacramento Youth Symphony From Page B1
New name and vision for theater festival The Ground and Field Theatre Festival, the UC Davis-based forum for new stage works, launched its fourth year with a new name — “Catalyst: A Theatre Think Tank”. It will live stream “This Is How It Happened” by Sacramento native Anthony D’Juan and directed by Lyndsay Burch, associate artistic director of B Street Theatre in Sacramento, on Thursday and Friday, Oct. 15 and 16.
Noon concerts showcase faculty lecturers The popular hour-long Shinkoskey Noon Concert Series can be seen and heard via live streaming starting in October.
Nine fall concerts will include woodwind group Keyed Kontraptions; solo harp by Kerstin Allvin; Beethoven chamber works performed by violinist Dagenais Smiley, cellist Susan Lamb Cook, and others; and Bach’s “Goldberg Variations” played by Marilyn Swan. These concerts will showcase faculty lecturers whose performance opportunities have been limited due to COVID-19.
Alberini talk by ‘design thinker’ The “Alberini Family Lecture in Design,” taking place Nov. 6, will be given by Lesley-Ann Noel, associate director for design thinking for social impact and professor of practice at the Phyllis M. Taylor Center for Social Innovation and Design Thinking at Tulane University. She draws on the fields of design, anthropology, business and education to create innovative product designs and business strategy for a wide variety of audiences.
gets together at a safe distance Special to The Enterprise
The Sacramento Youth Symphony, which includes several Davis musicians, has opened its 65th season with outdoor, socially-distanced, masked rehearsals from 6 to 7:30 p.m. and 8 to 9:30 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays in the side yard at 3443 Ramona Ave. in Sacramento. While the pandemic has pressed schools throughout the region to move
their music programs entirely online, the Sacramento Youth Symphony has gone to great lengths to produce many of its fall rehearsals outside and in-person, allowing for a more traditional music education experience while simultaneously adhering to health and safety standards.

Please refer to the conditions of sale posted at www.bid4assets.com for more information. All property is sold as is. The County and its employees are not liable for the failure of any electronic equipment that may prevent a person from participating in the sale. All sales are final, with the exception that the Tax Collector reserves the right to rescind the sale in the event that an error is discovered that may have affected the due process rights of the former owner. By participation in the Internet Auction, the bidder agrees to cooperate in the rescission of the sale if such an event occurs within one year of the sale of the property. The right of tax redemption will cease on Thursday, October 22, 2020, at 5:00 p.m. and properties not redeemed will be offered for sale. If the parcel is not sold, the right of redemption will revive and continue up to the close of business on the last business day prior to the next scheduled auction. If the properties are sold, parties of interest, as defined in California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 4675, have a right to file a claim with the County for any excess proceeds from the sale. Excess proceeds are the amount of the highest bid in excess of the liens and costs of the sale that are paid from the sale proceeds. More information may be obtained by calling (530) 666-8190 or online at www.yolocounty.org.
