Army veteran has made career of helping other vets Todd R. Hansen

FAIRFIELD — John Gilbertson goes to work at Travis Air Force Base every day. “My job is to help families in their time of need; basically to make sure they are getting the benefits they are entitled to,” said Gilbertson, who spent 24 years in the U.S. Army. He has attended more than 300 military funerals, though funeral benefits is only one

aspect of his work. “I’ve buried some Army buddies, too,” Gilbertson said. His wife, Mariana, is an Army veteran as well, and so is one of his two daughters. They live in Fairfield. Part of Gilbertson’s military time was spent in Bosnia where part of his job was to help pinpoint and map out mass graves. He also helped identify possible land mine sites for disposal.

ayne Steinberg never expected to see his Marine Recruiters School sabre again, but he never stopped hoping to get it back. Every year since the sword was stolen from his apartment, he would call up the Daly City Police DepartINSIDE ment in hopes the sword had been found. “When I attended Recruiters School back in 1981, I was awarded the sword for being No. 1 in my class,” said Steinberg, 62, who is the Facility, Fleet, Safety and Security A special section manager for US Foods in honoring our local Phoenix, Arizona, not far veterans on from his home in Anthem. Veterans Day. He served in the Marine Corps from 1976 to 1987. “And in 1997, I was living in Daly City at the time, my apartment was broken into and it was stolen, along with all the ribbons and badges I had,” Steinberg said. But the Daly City police did not have the sword. Actually, for 15 years, Scott Marty had it. A customer of his had purchased a container for $100 as part of an auction and the sword was there.

BENICIA — Ulysses S. Grant, Edward Ord and Joseph Hooker – each a Civil War general – were stationed at the Benicia Arsenal during their Army careers. The post was a staging location for troops during the Civil War and has a significant history linked to the Spanish-American War, World War I and World War II. The arsenal also was home to the short-lived Army Camel Corps, and it was the Army’s primary

ordnance facility on the West Coast for more than a century. Founded as the Benicia Barracks in 1849, it was designated the Arsenal in 1852 when Gen. Percifer F. Smith pushed for the placement of what became the first ordnance depot on the West Coast. While the dates seem to vary, it was at that time that a cemetery was founded as well. The Benicia Arsenal Post Cemetery came under the authority of the National Cemetery See Benicia, Page A9

FAIRFIELD — Dixon High School is less than a mile from the new Solano County hemp growing zone, but staff assured the Board of Supervisors on Tuesday that the permitting procedure will keep actual operations farther away. Ellen Fawl raised the high school proximity issue, as well as concerns

about the lack of nursery regulations, chemical and carbon dioxide use during processing, traffic and how the remaining plant material will be disposed of once the oil is extracted. The board approved the ordinance on a unanimous vote. It goes into effect in 30 days. A violation of the ordinance would be considered a misdemeanor. Assistant Administra-

Generosity to barbershop owner amid pandemic is a cut above Tribune Content Agency BA LT I MOR E — Basim Shannon has had a rough year. The owner of PHD Salon barbershop at 216 Main St. in Laurel, Md., had to close his shop in March due to the coronavirus pandemic. When Shannon was able to reopen his doors in July, he was the sole employee, as his staff did not return for various reasons during the shutdown. Then, on Aug. 11, Shannon was in a motorcycle accident that injured his right hand and leg. His beloved shop of 15 years has been closed ever since. On a recent Friday mor ning, however, Shannon was all smiles. Thanks to the generosity of a former customer, the barbershop (the PHD stands for “professional hair doctor”) is getting a complete makeover, free of charge, during Shannon’s recovery. After unlocking the door on the morning of Oct. 30 for the demolition crew and going to physical therapy, Shannon returned to find his shop completely gutted and ready for a fresh start. “This is a blessing,” said Shannon, 60. “It definitely caught me off guard.” For Kenny Lawal, the former Laurel resident who used to come to Shannon’s shop, the decision to help Shannon was obvious. The question was how. “He gives free hair-

Basim Shannon, 15-year owner of PHD Salon in Laurel, talks about the renovation project as it begins, Oct. 30. cuts to students, and has a barbecue before school starts,” Lawal said. “What can I do for a guy like that?” As president of Granite Outlet Kitchen & Bath Design Studio, a home improvement store in Lutherville- Timonium, Lawal decided to help by renovating the barbershop. “We’ve never done anything like this before. It is like a home improvement show,” Lawal said. “I called a lot of workers. We all pitched in.” Everything from supplies – including flooring, cabinets and countertops – to the time for the design, demolition and installation was donated, Lawal said. Work began on Oct. 30 and Lawal hopes to have things wrapped up by the end of November so Shannon can open before the holidays. “It gets rough before it gets pretty,” Lawal said. “It was supposed to be a surprise . . . but we were

unable to pull that off.” “It was hard for me to keep it secret,” said CeCe Shannon, Basim Shannon’s wife. “He drives past for therapy and has to get the mail.” Shannon is working hard at his physical therapy so he can be physically ready to go back to work when the renovations are complete. He no longer has to have a cast or boot and the swelling in his hand has gone down. “I am hoping everything will be ready to go the week before Thanksgiving,” Shannon said. “Fingers crossed. Thanksgiving and Christmas, that is the nice big rush. That is prime time.” Many of his clientele returned when he reopened in July, and he is confident they will return again to see the renovated shop. “I am very, very excited he wanted to do this and had the people to do it,” Shannon said of Lawal. “For me, being on Main Street, on the corner, I get a lot of visibility.” Shannon, a native New Yorker, and CeCe, who is originally from Virginia, moved to Laurel in 2001 to raise their family after visiting the area for a wedding. Shannon first worked for another hair salon before learning about the shop on Main Street. “It was time for me to get my own location,” Shannon said.

Heather emailed me to say she had grown up to be an editor at a publishing house in New York. She and her husband were starting a family and had moved back to California, where she was starting her own editing and publishing business. So we met again to talk about writing and books and babies. And I hired her to edit my novel. Then I hired her as project manager to publish it. I wish I could hire her to run my life. We all have a God-given ability to pull for one another, to bear each other’s burdens and rejoice in all the joys. I’m grateful to all of you who nagged me to finish my book. Please don’t feel you need to read it. Unless you really want to. What’s your dream? Share it with someone who’ll nag you to finish it. Nagging helps. But in the end, I think you will find, just as I did, it’s mostly up to you. Sharon Randall is the author of “The World and Then Some: A Novel.” She can be reached at www.sharonrandall.com.

He has hosted free haircuts for students before the beginning of the school year for the past 10 years and has hosted customer appreciation days during Laurel’s Main Street Festival. “He loves this shop,” CeCe said. “He has healed good for his age. He has come a long, long way.” Lawal is hoping the renovations attract new clientele to Shannon’s shop.

Solano close to ‘purple,’ again Hannigan calls for public campaign Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Dr. Bela Matyas, the Solano County health officer, told the Board of Supervisors Tuesday that the state’s testing adjustments are not likely to save the county from regressing into the state’s most-restrictive purple tier if the case rate is not lowered. “The c o u n t y ’s current experience with Covid-19 has not been good,” said Matyas, noting a case rate nearly as high as 80 per day over the weekend. Add that to the 136 cases reported Friday, that four-day average was 93.2 cases – more than three times higher than the 30.7-case average the

county needs to be at or below to stay in the red tier. There were 64 new cases reported in Tuesday’s Public Health update, which would put the fiveday average at nearly 87.4. “Our current case rate is nearly as high as our peak (during the novel coronavirus pandemic),” Matyas said. The update to the board included the usual discussion of the cause of the case increases, which in Solano County comes back to the usual response: social gatherings of friends and family. Matyas noted that Public Health hears people say they are concerned about meeting strangers in public so they take See Purple, Page A4

FAIRFIELD — U.S. veterans in Fairfield and around the country marked the 245th anniversary of the founding of the Marine Corps with a cake-cutting.

New name, emphasis on patriotism at Rowland Freedom Center in Vaca Amy Maginnis-Honey

amaginnis@dailyrepublic.net

VACAVILLE — There’s a new name and renewed mission at the Rowland Freedom Center, formerly known as the Center for Freedom and Flight. Visitors are welcome Saturday to check out a uniform dating back to the Civil War as well as items from World Wars I and II and Korea. Launched as the Jimmy Doolittle Museum and Center for Patriotism, the name was changed in 2017. The new moniker is for Herman Rowland, who helped launch the center as well as the American Armory Museum in rural Fairfield. “He said ‘no,’ ” said Paul Mirich, the general manager, about the name change. Reluctantly, Rowland relented. The museum’s displays have been redone with the goal of rotating some of the aircraft every few months. The board of directors envisions field trips where students can learn about the planes, tanks and more – and that freedom was not free. “We have all kinds of freedoms other countries don’t have,” Rowland said, naming off speech, assembly and religion, to name a few. Each exhibit at the center has a story, including a reproduction of a Japanese Zero that was featured in the movies “Tora, Tora, Tora” and “Midway,” as well as TV’s “Black Sheep Squadron.” Guests can also see the new Ryan aircraft that was housed on the second floor

The Center for Freedom and Flight, at the Nut Tree Airport, was renamed the Rowland Freedom Center, Tuesday. Pictured is Herman Rowland, chairman of the Jelly Belly Candy Company, standing next to the Gonzales biplane, completed in 1912. of the Nut Tree Restaurant. An exhibit about Space Force is beginning to take shape. Visitors can also see one of the first aircraft built in California by twin brothers, who were 15 at the time. There’s also a re-creation of Gen. George Patton’s field briefing tent. Mirich has many details about the exhibit. A tribute to women in aviation also has a home at the center. “Our mission is to honor those who defend our freedom, to educate future generations about why we’re free to promote patriotism,” the center’s mission statement reads. “Our center celebrates the people, technology and principles that make our freedom possible.” Rowland discovered his love of military equipment before he entered his teens. He recalled the July 1944 Port Chicago disaster and being evacuated from the area. More than 300 sailors and

civilians were killed as munitions detonated while being loaded onto a cargo vessel. About 400 people were injured. Approximately twothirds of the dead and injured were enlisted Black sailors. When 50 men refused to work in the unsafe environment, they were convicted of mutiny. A June 2019 resolution recognized the victims of the explosion and officially exonerated the 50 men who were court-martialed by the Navy. “As a kid, I always wanted a tank,” Rowland said. Several years later he was able to purchase military equipment at an auction. His collection has continued to grow. Visitors Saturday can also get a look at the Miliaria GI Joe & Toy Show between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. It will take place at the Rowland Freedom Center, 300 County Airport Road. The center is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. For more details, call 449-3402.

about his continued devotion to the Marine Corps. His shop is decorated with military paraphernalia. His reading selection on the bookshelf features military books. His front door proudly states “Semper Fidelis,” so it makes sense that he would invite his patrons to come down for a cake-cutting Tuesday. “We aren’t allowed to celebrate the Fourth of July this year; we can at least celebrate the Marine Corps’ birthday,” he said. Marty takes great pride in serving in the Marine Corps; the four patrons who stopped in

for the service Tuesday join him in those feelings. “You only have to have two Marines in the room to do this ceremony,” Marty said. With a tumbler of whiskey to start the evening, they watched a video on YouTube about the U.S. Marine Corps, founded Nov. 10, 1775, in Philadelphia. Then they watched an official video about the 13th commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps, Lt. Gen. John Archer Lejeune, born Jan. 10, 1867, at Pointe Coupee, Louisiana. The oldest Marine (who

did not want to be identified) present Tuesday sliced a piece of cake and served it to the youngest person present, who happened to be Marty. Carl Cruz of Fairfield served in the 2nd Battalion 9th Marines from 1986 to 1991. He said this was an annual renewal of commitment to the Marine Corps. “This is going on all over the world, right now,” he said.

Solano commission to hear update Obituary on wildfire’s impacts on parks

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County Parks and Recreation Commission is expected to receive an update Thursday on the impact of the LNU Lightning Complex Fire on park operations. The LNU Lightning Complex Fire started early Aug. 17 in Napa County and ultimately surrounded Lake Berryessa. The Hennessey Fire, the largest fire of the LNU complex that ultimately scorched portions of six counties, is the fire that burned into Solano County late

Aug. 18 and early Aug. 19. Six people died as a result of the fire, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection reports. Five people

were injured, including one first responder. A total of 309 single-family homes were destroyed by the fire in rural Solano County. A total of 1,491 structures were destroyed across the larger fire complex. Hennessey, eight fires that sparked in Napa County and quickly merged into one megafire, also burned across portions of Yolo, Lake and Colusa counties, charring nearly 477.58 square miles (305,651acres)–65.62square miles (42,000 acres) in Solano County. The larger fire complex includes two smaller

vention protocols and fully endorsed by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Hannigan’s campaign idea, because it would educate children who would presumably take the lessons home, was also likened to a Nazi Germany propaganda approach. The board also was urged, again, to take down from its website the phone number locals can use to report Covid-19 protocol violations by businesses. Terry Schmidtbauer, the acting director of the Department of Resource Management, reported that since August, the county has received 267 complaints, which resulted in 203 site visits. Only seven of those have required a third inspection, which triggers the county referring the matter to law enforcement or state agencies. In general, he said, the businesses are following the regulations. Matyas said the Halloween numbers are starting to show up in the Public Health data as well, noting that the new surge is mostly younger residents. That means the hospitalization numbers are not spiking like in past surges, but the disease has

made its way into 15 care facilities, and some of those who are transmitting the disease, Matyas said, are medical staff who have participated in social gatherings but without following safety protocols. It is in those facilities where the fatalities begin to rise. The past three deaths in the county were in a memory care facility in Vacaville, bringing the total to 79. The Public Health Division reported that with the 61 news cases, the countywide total is 8,430. Matyas said he fully expects the state to put the county on notice, and while Solano will appeal the state’s position next week to put off a final state decision, in two more weeks the county could be going back to “purple.� The other key piece to the state’s decision is the seven-day testing rate, which was reported Tuesday at 10.1% – well above the purple tier threshold of 8%. California’s colorcoded monitoring system designates the purple tier for counties where transmission of the novel coronavirus is considered to be widespread. Shutdown orders for counties in the purple tier are the

most severe. The red tier is for counties with substantial spread of the virus. The orange tier designates moderate virus transmission, while the yellow tier is reserved for counties where the spread of the virus is deemed to be minimal. Restrictions to slow the spread of the virus are eased as counties move from purple to red, red to orange and orange to yellow. Hospitalizations across Solano County were at 31 Tuesday, the same as Monday; and the number of active cases continues to rise, up from 577 to 580. Fairfield had 17 new cases to bring its total to 2,663; Vallejo added 22 to bring its count to 2,719 cases; and Vacaville is at 1,590 after 18 new cases, the county reported. Suisun City eclipsed the 600-case threshold with three new cases, now at 601, while four more cases were reported in Benicia to bring its total to 219 cases. There were no new cases reported in Dixon (547), Rio Vista (64) or in the unincorporated area of the county, which held at 27 cases. The number of completed tests was reported Tuesday at 112,283, and increase of 1,191 from Monday. An estimated 25% of the county has been tested. Matyas told the board that if the repeated facility testing were included in that data, the number of tests would actually be more than 150,000.

businesses are invited to retire their damaged flags from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Downtown Theatre’s courtyard at 1035 Texas St. in Fairfield. The Boy Scouts will perform a color guard ceremony and perform

one last Pledge of Allegiance before retiring each flag during the moment of silence. The residents of Vacaville will gather to give thanks to our country’s veterans with a public ceremony at 9 a.m. Wednesday

in Andrews Park. Hosted by the Downtown Vacaville Business Improvement District, the ceremony will take place at the Creekwalk Plaza, near the Davis Street and Main Street bridge entrance to the park.

He also said that if the county does not want its businesses harmed, it needs to convince the governor’s office that the care rate has nothing to do with businesses. “I think we need a mask and social distancing campaign,� Supervisor Erin Hannigan said. She proposed a media campaign using social media, TV, radio, school education and even the back of buses to get the message out to wear face coverings and keep a safe distance no matter what the setting: work, home or in the community. Supervisor Jim Spering was not convinced the expense would necessarily have the desired results, but he is increasingly frustrated that it will be businesses that will pay the price for the choices being made by county residents. “They are just ruining more lives, more businesses; it’s unconscionable,� Spering said. However, the board heard from several members of the public about their beliefs that face coverings do not work, and that the county should stop promoting it.

The commissioners are also slated Thursday to select members to serve on the 2020-21 Fish and Wildlife Propagation Fund Evaluation Committee.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There’s so much going right. When you focus on that, it builds. It’s easier to do around people who want you to succeed. Notice who supports you and wants to hear about what’s good in your world. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). An investment in your health, education and curiosity in the world will pay off now, later and all along the way. You really can’t go wrong with this, and you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it sooner. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Noting your accomplishments will be important. Even better, celebrate them! It’s about keeping track of the data, but the emotional element is key, too, because it provides the fuel to aim for future success. CANCER (June 22-July 22). To you, compassion is not an emotion but a call to action. You do what you can to alleviate suffering. Sometimes, all you can do is offer some warmth, and you do that so well. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Discourse can feel like a game of strategy, and it often it is. You’ll be well aware of how what you say is a move, and your move not only changes your position, but also it changes theirs and the future. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When positive experiences aren’t naturally happening, you will be able to create them with minimal effort. Try to make at least four to offset the

I was going to pick a therapist, but he said that he would, but again, nothing. — Tired of Waiting Dear Tired: Divorce can be traumatic. It sounds like your boyfriend might need time before he is ready to tie the knot. His comment about marrying “the one” is hurtful. You might be correct that it’s time to move on. However, before making a decision, you need to tell him all that you’re feeling. People are not mind readers, and so much of a healthy relationship is communication. Rather than waiting for him to decide what he wants, decide what you want and then tell him exactly what that is. Therapy is doubly important because the lives of three children are at stake. His ex-wife living across the street is something that a professional should be able to help you and your boyfriend sort out. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@ creators.com.

He planned to rebid three spades to invite game with three-card support, but he upgraded for the nine-card or better fit. Each South saw that he would lose tricks to the black-suit aces, so he could afford one heart loser, but not two. The first declarer took two heart finesses and grumbled when both lost. The second declarer realized that hearts could wait. He ruffed a diamond at trick two, then played a trump to the nine. East won with his ace and exited with his second trump.

Sword From Page One the significance of the sabre, but had little luck in finding the owner. “Over the years, we have talked to recruiters and other military people and (had) not been able to find him,” Marty’s wife, Rietta Morris-Marty, said. What they knew was that the sabre belonged to a Marine who had worked as a recruiter for the Marine Corps, out of Oakland, and that the sword had been stolen. The break came when a friend of the family, and another former Marine, was going to Virginia

and stopped at Quantico and was able to use its resources to locate Steinberg. The Marine Corps sent the Arizona man Marty’s contact information and the two connected. “I told them I would pay to have it shipped to me,” said Steinberg, a combat veteran who fought in Grenada. That experience he does not talk about at all. But Morris-Marty would have none of that. “She said it was our responsibility to make sure it gets back into his hands properly,” Marty said. She added, “Marines don’t do that.” And despite MorrisMarty’s fear of flying, she and her husband hopped onto a plane and headed to Arizona. She said she was

From Page One already specifically addresses chemical use. Security, county costs, the different kinds of hemp and what was believed to be a lack of public outreach about the ordinance also were issues raised. “We feel there is more work (needed) on this plan,” said Greg House, representing the Solano County Farm Bureau. The hemp varieties was a discussion point in that the Farm Bureau apparently believes hemp for fiber and food should be allowed to be grown anywhere in the county, while hemp used for CDB, or cannabidiol, is the variety that should be more restricted. Cannabidiol is used for a variety of health issues such as pain, anxiety and what proponents assert is help for seizures and neurodegenerative disorders. It is also the crop that is most likely targeted by criminals, which mix the low-THC plant with other products to enhance the high. The oil itself has a black market value. The county experienced a wave of criminal activity during the first hemp growing season, including shootings, highspeed law enforcement chases and other crimes that taxed the Sheriff’s Office and alarmed neighboring residents. It was described as the “old West.” That led to the moratorium on cultivation and processing until a new ordinance could be developed, one that requires growers to clear a criminal background check for past narcotics offenses. And then there is the odor, described again at

Trump From Page One Leader Mitch McConnell, kept their four years of extraordinary fealty going and aligned behind the president’s longshot efforts to sully if not reverse the election result. “ WAT C H F OR MASSIVE BALLOT COUNTING ABUSE AND, JUST LIKE THE EARLY VACCINE, REMEMBER I TOLD YOU SO!” Trump tweeted at mid-morning Tuesday in his first all-capitalized commentary of the day, followed seconds later by the more succinct but just as unsubstantiated “BALLOT COUNTING ABUSE!” With 10 weeks until the inauguration, there is still time to allow for both a presidential cooling-off period and the necessary preparations to support Biden when he takes over as the most powerful person on the planet. But that period will not last much longer before it’s time to contemplate what has been unthinkable: the record of peaceful presidential transitions will stop at 44. “Are we 100% certain

looked up some history about the sword and why it was given out. It is a military tradition that dates back to 1852. “When I was practicing, I would practice in the Tuesday’s meeting as like a “dead skunk.” Those crime and odor concerns were the primary forces behind developing an ordinance that added greater restrictions on where the crop could be grown and processed, the latter of which must be indoors. Michele Guerra also urged the board to network with other counties facing similar problems and learn what has proven to be a downside to wildlife and other concerns. The growing area is defined as 1 mile east of Highway 113; 3 miles north of Highway 12; the eastern county border; with Midway Road as the northern boundary. There is a 100-foot setback requirement from the parcel edge, as well as a 2,500-foot setback from any off-site residence. Every grower must have an administrative permit, which includes having a security plan approved by the Sheriff’s Office. While the ordinance states neighbors within a half-mile of the proposed growing site will be notified so they can attend the permit hearing, Supervisor Jim Spering said he believed that notice should go out more than a mile. Emlen said that is the intent of the planning staff, and that the half-mile mark is only a minimum. Even with all the new security requirements, Rio Vista-area resident Jack Fonss said the region is already burdened by crime created by legal and illegal marijuana operations, a situation the Sheriff’s Office cannot address with current staffing. “I cannot think of a better place to hide an illegal marijuana grow than in the middle of a hemp grow,” Fonss said. “It would be reckless,

this doesn’t soften the ground enough so that what seems almost unthinkable now becomes thinkable?” conservative author Bill Kristol wrote of Trump’s efforts to discredit the outcome in a Tuesday post in The Bulwark, a website run by fellow “Never Trump” Republicans. “A little alarmism in the defense of liberty is no vice. Complacency in the defense of democracy is no virtue.” Even after the sixweek dispute over the 537 votes in Florida two decades ago, every losing candidate in modern times has conceded to the winner within hours of the election’s definitive conclusion. Trump has shown no interest in doing so, whether or not his scattershot legal campaign in battleground states gains any traction. The Electoral College is slated to formally confirm the outcome Dec. 14. The General Services Administration, which needs to make a formal finding that Biden has won in order to start the mechanics of the transition, still had not done so Tuesday afternoon. The agency has suggested it may repeat its posture from the dis-

shower to get my speech ready, and I found myself in tears,” Marty said. “And even when I think about it (now) and tell about it, I get emotional.” The Martys turned the sword over July 26 to Steinberg at a veterans memorial in Anthems. Also attending the ceremony were representatives from the U.S. State Department and the local Veterans of Foreign Wars post, the Maricopa County sheriff and one of his deputies and a group Steinberg works with, Youth for Troops. No media were included. Marty said he could tell Steinberg was a bit overwhelmed by the whole scene. “He paused . . . and he

moved forward and I asked him if he was Wayne Steinberg,” said Marty, adding that once the case holding the sword was handed over, Steinberg never let it go. “I was just amazed at how good of condition it was in,” Steinberg said when he finally had a chance to look at it. “I can’t thank them enough for taking the time time to locate me.” Back in Fairfield, the story has been met with a lot of emotion, too. Marty, who has been cutting hair for nearly 40 years and 25 at his current location, said many of his customers are veterans and law enforcement officials. “People have been moved to tears,” Marty said.

This map shows the boundary where industrial hemp may be grown in Solano County. absolutely reckless to open up this pristine area to this crop.” Supervisors Skip Thomson said the ordinance addresses a legal agricultural crop recognized by the federal and state governments. He said if illegal operations result, then the county will have to deal with those as it would any criminal activity. He also called upon the Sheriff’s Office to investigate the claims of illegal marijuana operations in the county area. Super visor John Vasquez also cautioned about stepping down a slippery slope. “The thing I’m concerned about for agriculture (is) . . . if you are against one crop you could be against all crops,” Vasquez said. The board introduced the ordinance at the Oct. 27 meeting. The final approval had been scheduled as part

of the board’s consent agenda Tuesday, but it was pulled to allow for more discussion. That noted, Thomson and Spering said they were satisfied with the county’s outreach effort, and Thomson said he was even surprised by some of those comments given the meetings he had attended. Other key requirements include hemp crops that do not meet THC level requirements must be destroyed; the number of testing samples increases with the number of acres; and bilingual hemp and no trespassing signage must be posted at the sites. The growers are responsible for all public costs, including on-site inspections. Additionally, anyone transporting the crops must have in their possession a certificate that shows the hemp meets the THC limit of threetenths of 1%.

puted 2000 election and wait until Trump concedes or the electors cast their votes. On Monday evening, the White House told career government staffers they were not to start acting on transition planning unless GSA made its “ascertainment.” And presidential personnel director John McEntee reportedly told political appointees they would get fired if he learned they had started looking for work. “Our institutions are actually built for this,” McConnell said in reconvening the Senate for its post-election session Monday, at which point fewer than half a dozen GOP senators had congratulated Biden as the winner. “We have the system in place to consider concerns and President Trump is 100% within his rights to look into allegations of irregularities and weigh his legal options.” Democratic leader Chuck Schumer countered that the refusal by GOP senators to accept the result was “extremely dangerous, extremely poisonous to our democracy.” The two senators from Georgia, David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, took things a step further: They

demanded their fellow Republican in charge of the state’s elections, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, resign to atone for challenging Trump’s unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud and not doing enough to buttress those allegations. Raffensperger said he was going nowhere. Republicans are hesitant to nudge Trump toward the exits, knowing that would infuriate his most devoted supporters – the sort who might be called on next to mobilize and write checks on behalf of the Georgiasenators, who face difficult re-election runoffs in January. Both of them losing would deliver Democrats the majority. For now, Trump has his base behind him. A poll taken after Election Day found 70% of Republicans not believing the election was free and fair, double who held a similar view before the election. The Politico/Morning Consult survey provides the latest evidence of the chasm of partisan understanding: About two-thirds of Republicans say the election results are unreliable, while nearly 9 of 10 Democrats say they trust the results.

Administration on Sept. 11, and in a broader extent, under the Department of Veterans Affairs umbrella. There is an effort in Vallejo to have the historic Naval Cemetery on Mare Island become a national cemetery as well. “The reason the Army told me for the transfer of the maintenance and care to the VA is that if the Army has a (facility) nearby they would keep caring for it,” said Jerry Hayes, with the Benicia Historical Society. But the Army does not have a post close to Benicia. Hayes said the Army had always cared for the cemetery, providing funding and a caretaker, but because there is no Army post at the site, or in relative proximity, it was looking to shift that responsibility. The VA was willing to take the cemetery, and now the care and maintenance of the cemetery, home to 212 internments – military personnel and their dependents – falls under the purview of the Sacramento Valley National Cemetery near Dixon. One of the first official affairs, Sacramento Valley Director Wil Pickard said, will be to include the cemetery in the annual Wreaths Across America ceremony, which because of the novel coronavirus pandemic will take place throughout the week of Dec. 19 rather than on a single day. The Benicia Historical Society has been hosting the annual Memorial Day ceremony at the arsenal cemetery since 1973, but was not able to have one this year because of the Covid-19 pandemic. A part of past Memorial Day events has been the inclusion of the German and Italian consulates because of the small number of prisoners of war who are buried in the cemetery. At one time, as many as 250 Italian and 400 German prisoners of war were held at a separate camp near the arsenal. It later became a branch camp of the Stockton Ordnance Depot Prisoner of War Camp. There are 60 unmarked

“Our mission was to go to towns and make sure the peace was being kept,” Gilbertson said. It was during contact with those residents that they would learn of the graves, but it was the graves registration personnel who had the more unpleasant work, he said. “I was in Germany for eight years (1988-93 and 1995-98) . . . and we had the opportunity . . . to go to the concentration camps and learned the history of World War II.” All those experiences helped shape the man he is today. Gilbertson enlisted in the Army in 1988, right out of high school in Long Beach where he was raised. He was born in Hawthorne. “The military had been a long family tradition, from my great-grandfather to my grandfather to all of my uncles. They were all in the Army,” Gilbertson said. He said his time in the Army “went beyond my expectations. I knew I wanted to get out of Long Beach and I knew I wanted to serve my country like my uncles and grandfathers, but I also wanted an education.” Gilbertson earned an associate degree while in the military and has a bachelor’s degree in social science out of Ashford University in San Diego. He describes himself as an optimist, always looking for positives out of any negative situation, and he never forgets why he does what he does. “We are the voice of the veterans,” he said. Gilbertson used to work for the Solano County Veteran Services Office. He said he still looks up to Ted Puntillo for what he has accomplished as the head of that organization. But it was actually a man at the state Employment Development Department who hooked him up with the county. Gilbertson had quit his job, and on a short deadline, the EDD employee, Dennis Perez, found the county job. Gilbert-

The Benicia Army Cemetery is the oldest cemetery in the Pacific States. It was the post cemetery for the Benicia Barracks, which from 1849 to 1857 served as the headquarters for the U.S. Army’s Pacific Division. graves, and two listed only as bones. Hayes and Pickard indicated they are anxious to include the Benicia veterans groups in future events. “If the VA says it wants the local veteran organizations (Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3928 or American Legion Post 101) to hold the ceremonies, that’s fine. We have no objections,” Hayes said. The cemetery was believed to be the last resting place of Sgt. John H. Foley, a Medal of Honor recipient and a calvary hero in the Indian Wars. He received his medal for gallantry during the battle with the Sioux Indians near Loupe Fork of the Platte River in Nebraska on April 26, 1872. And while there is a John H. Foley buried at the arsenal cemetery, it is not the Medal of Honor recipient. The highest-ranking individ-

ual buried at the cemetery is Lt. Col. James Mason, who rose to be the superintending engineer for the defenses of the Golden Gate, but died in 1853 of yellow fever at the age of 36. Beverly Phelan points to another man who is actually buried in the cemetery at West Point, but was in a very real sense a key architect of the arsenal. Phelan, with the Benicia Historical Museum – located in what were former warehouses near the camel barns – said Charles B. Stone, who has his own decorated military career in the Mexican-American and Civil wars, was responsible for much of the arsenal construction while he served as chief of ordnance for the Pacific Department. He also was involved in the construction of the base for the Statue of Liberty. The last burial at the cemetery was in 1958. The arsenal closed in 1963.

son called and got an interview the next week. “I can tell you, when I went in and took a seat for that interview with Mr. Puntillo, I was so nervous,” Gilbertson said. “But I got the job . . . and that was one of the most rewarding jobs I’ve ever had: continuing to help veterans out.” But his current position meant more money, which he needed for some family needs at the time. He does have one experience that stands out from the others. Gilbertson said he was part of a retirement briefing at Travis when he was approached by an older couple. They were in their 80s. The man was a Vietnam veteran and had some health issues. “They came up to me and said, ‘John, we need your help,’ ” Gilbertson said. As it turns out, the couple had been having trouble getting benefits because he lacked the paperwork needed to prove his service time. So Gilbertson sent them home to look for anything from his time in the service, including letters they wrote to each other. “She actually found a letter with a VPO stamped right on it. I asked her if I could read it and it was a letter written on rice paper,” Gilbertson said. As it turned out, it was a kind of love letter the man had written to his wife as he began a flight mission over Vietnam. It described the plane formation, the purpose of the mission and other details that confirmed he was indeed a pilot in the U.S. armed forces. “And we were able to get them full benefits,” said Gilbertson, which included back pay the man had been entitled to as well. Gilbertson, a lifetime member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars post in Benicia, said it is work he was intended to do. “It’s not everyone who gets to serve their country . . . and gets to continue serving (veterans),” Gilbertson said. “And I will continue to do this until I can’t do it anymore.”

3 biggest ways 2021 salary cap rules impact W’s Wes Goldberg

ANALYSIS

MERCURY NEWS

T

he NBA and National Basketball Players Association agreed Monday on the start of the 2020-21 season, offseason timeline and a finalized salary cap. The Warriors and high-spending teams like them could be the beneficiaries of the agreement. Negotiations between the league’s owners and players settled on a shortened 72-game season

to start on Dec. 22 last week, and now the two sides have agreed to financial framework for the 2020-21 season. Despite steep projected revenue declines due to the coronavirus pandemic, the 2020-21 salary cap will resemble last season’s at $109.1 million with the luxury tax line set at $132.6 million. The freeagency negotiating period will begin on Nov. 20 at

3 p.m, two days after the draft. Signings can be made official starting at noon, Nov. 22. Here are some key ways these financial numbers will impact the Warriors next season, and beyond. LUXURY TAX RELIEF The NBA will provide financial relief to teams paying the luxury tax, according to ESPN. Payments for tax-paying teams will decline in proportion to the league’s revenue at the end of the season. If the NBA sees a 30% decline in its revenue because fans can’t safely attend

games, the Warriors’ luxury tax bill would be reduced by 30%. For example, with their current roster, plus a salary owed to the No. 2 overall pick, the Warriors are expected to pay upwards of $50 million in luxury taxes. A 30% decline in league revenue would drop that figure by $15 million. MORE REASON TO USE THE TRADE EXCEPTION This relief could also motivate the Warriors to use the $17.2 million trade exception it created by trading Andre I g u o d a l a l a s t s u m m e r. As ESPN’s Bobby Marks calculated, if the Warriors used the full amount of the exception and league revenue decreased by 30%, the Warriors

would save nearly $50 million. Indications going into the offseason were that Golden State’s front office would only use the trade exception on a player who markedly increases its chances of going to the NBA Finals. While that is still the case, ownership may not take as much convincing to spend on a rotation-level player given the expected savings. It’s unlikely the Warriors use the full $17.2 million exception – there doesn’t seem to be an available player worth that investment – but players like San Antonio’s Rudy Gay, Phoenix’s Ricky Rubio, Philadelphia’s Josh Richardson, Miami’s Kelly Olynyk, Memphis’ Jonas Valanciunas and

Milwaukee’s Eric Bledsoe all fit within that exception. MID-LEVEL EXCEPTION AMOUNT IS SET Because the 2020-21 salary cap reflects that of last season’s, amounts for the mid-level exception will remain the same. The Warriors will have up to $5,718,000 to spend on a single player or split among multiple players. With 13 players under contract, and a 14th spot earmarked for the first-round pick, using the full amount on a single player makes the most sense given the roster crunch. A veteran such as Marc

Williamson sues Giants over concussion that ‘ended my career’ Tribune Content Agency

Curtis Compton/Atlanta Journal-Constitution/TNS

Tiger Woods gets in some practice for the Masters tossing a handful of golf balls into a sand trap on the

practice range at Augusta National Golf Club, Tuesday, in Augusta, Georgia.

Tiger Woods expects to contend at Masters and I want to believe it

By Michael Cunningham THE ATLANTA JOURNALCONSTITUTION

T

iger Woods was talking about the state of his game since golf’s restart this year. It sounded like a list of reasons why he can’t repeat as an improbable Masters champion. “I haven’t put all the pieces together at the same time,” Woods said Tuesday. “Whether it’s I’ve driven well or hit my irons poorly. Or I’ve put the ball-striking together, and I haven’t putted well.

ANALYSIS And then I’ve had it where I’ve putted well, and I’ve hit it poorly.” That’s an honest self-assessment of Tiger’s form for his 21st Masters start as a professional. It’s also not what you want to hear if you’d like to see Woods win at Augusta again. Include me among those ranks. That’s not because I have any special affinity for Woods. That feeling faded as we both got older. Instead, I’d like to

see Woods keep adding to his collection of major championships until there’s no argument left for Jack Nicklaus as greatest golfer of all time. Nicklaus won 18 majors. Woods has 15. Nicklaus was 46 years old when he won his last major, the 1986 Masters. Woods was 43 when he won the 2019 Masters, 23 years after he became the tournament’s youngest winner. I want to believe Tiger can do it again. That’s why it was reassuring that, even as Tiger

acknowledged the shabby shape of his game, he flashed the same defiance as when he insisted he could win majors when everyone figured he was finished. “Do I expect to contend?” Woods said. “Yes, I do.” He cited the latecareer results at Augusta for Bernhard Langer and Fred Couples. Langer won the Masters in 1985 and 1993. He finished tied for eighth in 2014 at age 56. See Tiger, Page B10

49ers’ Richie James: From anonymity to select company after big game vs. GB Tribune Content Agency A week ago, the 49ers didn’t have a wide receiver who had caught a pass of 40-plus yards this season. On Thursday, Richie James had receptions of 47, 43 and 41 yards. A week ago, only four 49ers since 1967 had at least nine catches and 184 receiving yards in a game. On T hursday, James became the fifth, joining Jerry Rice, Terrell Owens, John Taylor and Anquan Boldin. Yes, James entered last week’s 34-17 loss to the Packers as an injury prone former seventh-round pick with no catches in 2020, but he exited as a player who inspired an obvious question: Why hasn’t that guy been playing more? With the 49ers playing without their top three wide receivers,

James played 51 snaps and had nine catches for 184 yards and a 41-yard touchdown catch. “We definitely had to tighten up,” James said of the rag-tag wide receiver corps. “You could feel there was a little pressure in the room like we’ve got to step up the most out of the (team) because they’re looking at us like we’re the weak link.” James did his part. He became the first NFL player with three catches of 40-plus yards in a game since 2017 (Chiefs’ wide receiver Tyreek Hill) and the first 49er to do since Rice in 1995. “We’ve got a lot of confidence in Richie,” head coach Kyle Shanahan said. “. . . I kind of expected him to do what he did because he is that type of player.” So why hasn’t Shanahan played James more? This season,

it’s because James has rarely been healthy. He missed training camp because of a broken wrist he suffered in June and suffered a hamstring injury in the season opener that sidelined him for four games. He returned and played in a win over the Rams before suffering an ankle injury the next week in a victory at New England that forced him to miss another game. Last week, in his return against the Packers, James estimated he was 95 percent healed from his ankle issue that had earned him a “questionable” designation before kickoff. However, there was no question who quarterback Nick Mullens trusted the most throughout the game: Mullens targeted James with 13 of his 35 passes, eight more than any other player.

For mer Gia nt s outfielder Mac Williamson is suing the organization over the concussion he sustained in 2018 when he tripped over a bullpen mound at Oracle Park and hit his head on the wall, saying he continues to have symptoms that include blurred vision, and that the incident “ended my career.” “My life hasn’t been the same since suffering the injury,” Williamson said in a statement released by a public relations firm for Williamson’s San Francisco-based attorney, Randy Erlewine. The rare action by a player against his former team over an onfield injury names China Basin Ballpark Company LLC as the defendant. That firm is controlled by the Giants’ partnership group. The suit, filed in Superior Court in San Francisco, alleges negligence and seeks unspecified actual and punitive damages. It says Williamson was “one of the best power hitters in Major League Baseball” when he got hurt. In a Zoom news conference Tuesday, Erlewine said Williamson could have earned “tens of millions

of dollars” had the injury not occurred. Williamson alleges the Giants maintained a dangerous risk for players by having the mounds on the field and did not move them to a safer spot even after players got hurt. The late owner Peter Magowan apologized to Williamson months after the incident. Williamson alleges that Magowan told him that when the ballpark was built the Giants placed the mounds on the field over the objection of then-Commissioner Bud Selig, who deemed them unsafe. The club acknowledged the danger after the Williamson collision and moved the mounds beyond the center-field fence before the 2020 season. The Giants were one of three teams that had mounds on the field. The Oakland A’s and Tampa Bay Rays still do. Williamson appeared on the Zoom news conference and said the realization that the injury ended his career was “devastating to me. Everybody’s career ends at some point. But to have it taken from me because the bullpen mounds were unnecessarily placed on the field is very hard to cope with.”

SF signs ex-Cubs, Padres prospect Jason Vosler to big-league contract Tribune Content Agency The Giants’ first free-agent signing of the 2020 offseason is a left-hand-hitting third baseman whom the vast majority of fans will not know. In other words, right up Farhan Zaidi’s alley. The newest Giant on the 40-man roster is Jason Vosler, a minorleague free agent who destroyed righthanded pitching for the Padres’ Triple-A team in El Paso in 2019. He gives manager Gabe Kapler a left-handed hitter to spell Evan Longoria, if he can hit big-league pitching. Vosler was drafted and raised by the Cubs, so general manager Scott

Harris knows hiim well. The 27-yearold had no stats for 2020 but was part of San Diego’s alternate camp. A Padres infield that included Manny Machado, Fernando Tatis Jr., Eric Hosmer and Rookie of the Year finalist Jake Cronenworth left Vosler no avenue to Petco Park. Vosler hit .291 with a career-high .890 OPS for El Paso in 2019, including 19 doubles, four triples and 20 homers. Although he played his home games at elevation, his road numbers were far better. He also hit .300 with a .371 on-base percentage, .970 OPS and 19 of his 20 homers against right-handers.

Saints move up on the heels of Steelers and Chiefs Mark Maske

THE WASHINGTON POST

Each week during the NFL season, The Post’s Mark Maske ranks the 32 teams. This week, the Steelers remain at No. 1 after hanging on for another last-second victory. The Chiefs remain second after surviving the Panthers’ 67-yard field goal attempt to win. It’s the Saints who are the story. They move up to No. 3 after their impressive triumph in Tampa, with their offense back intact. They leapfrog the Ravens, who still move up a spot. The Bucs, Seahawks and Cardinals fall with their losses. The Titans and Raiders are back in the top 10, replacing the Cards and Colts. 1. PITTSBURGH STEELERS (8-0) Last week’s rank: 1 The struggles against the Cowboys were unexpected, and the injury to QB Ben Roethlisberger’s left knee is concerning. But Roethlisberger seems confident that he can play through the injury, and the Steelers are 8-0 for the first time in franchise history. These are good times for one of the NFL’s flagship franchises. 2. KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (8-1) Last week’s rank: 2 For all the talk about Patrick Mahomes not being as spectacular this season as in other years, he has 25 TD passes and one interception and perhaps is the league MVP frontrunner. His presence will make the Chiefs the team to beat entering the postseason, regardless of whether they’re the AFC’s No. 1 seed. 3. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (6-2) Last week’s rank: 7 No one was wondering Sunday night if Drew Brees has enough arm strength left to be an elite QB. Brees and the Saints looked fantastic with WRs Michael Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders back in the lineup. This was the team that the Saints originally were expected to be. Taysom Hill was terrific in his all-purpose role. 4. BALTIMORE RAVENS (6-2) Last week’s rank: 5 The defense did its part in Indianapolis, and the Ravens continue to hang around top-contender status. They’re far less spectacular on offense than they were last season. But they’re still capable of beating anyone. 5. BUFFALO BILLS (7-2) Last week’s rank: 8 The Bills have steadied themselves with three straight wins after the two-game losing streak. Sunday’s offensive exploits were impressive, although the woes of the Seattle defense contributed. It looks very much like a two-team race between the Bills and Dolphins in the AFC East. 6. GREEN BAY PACKERS (6-2) Last week’s rank: 10 The Packers won in predictably dominant fashion Thursday night against the shorthanded 49ers. With the issues for the Bucs and Seahawks, the Packers and Saints now appear to be the NFC favorites. 7. TENNESSEE TITANS (6-2) Last week’s rank: 11 The victory over the Bears ended the two-game losing streak. The Titans remain formidable. They’re probably on relatively even footing with the Ravens and Bills and perhaps a half-step behind the Steelers and Chiefs in the race for AFC supremacy. 8. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (6-3) Last week’s rank: 3 The Bucs debut of WR Antonio Brown made no difference. Tom Brady and the Buccaneers were no match, again, for Drew Brees and the Saints. The Sunday night debacle for the Bucs makes their path to the Super Bowl much more difficult and calls into question just how good they are. 9. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (6-2) Last week’s rank: 4 The defense is awful. There is almost no margin for error for QB Russell Wilson and his receivers. So Wilson’s two interceptions were far too much for the Seahawks to overcome against the Bills. 10. LAS VEGAS RAIDERS (5-3) Last week’s rank: 12 The Raiders were the beneficiaries of the latest episode of the Chargers doing Chargers things. They

might not be happy with their penalties imposed by the NFL for protocol violations. But on the field, at least, things are looking up for the Raiders. 11. MIAMI DOLPHINS (5-3) Last week’s rank: 13 Tua Tagovailoa had great moments Sunday as both a passer and as a runner. The QB switch from Ryan Fitzpatrick to Tagovailoa was warranted all along, in the big picture. The huge victory at Arizona demonstrates that it might not even cost the Dolphins a chance to reach the playoffs this season. 12. ARIZONA CARDINALS (5-3) Last week’s rank: 6 The young-QB duel between Kyler Murray and Tua Tagovailoa was captivating. There’s no reason to feel too much differently about the Cardinals’ prospects, particularly long term, even with the defeat. 13. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (5-3) Last week’s rank: 9 The loss to the Ravens underscored that the Colts are not on the AFC’s upper tier. They’re good. But they’re not on the level of the top contenders. 14. LOS ANGELES RAMS (5-3) Last week’s rank: 14 The losses by the Seahawks, Cardinals and 49ers made it an extremely productive bye week for the Rams. 15. CLEVELAND BROWNS (5-3) Last week’s rank: 15 The placement of QB Baker Mayfield on the covid-19 reserve list should not be a major competitive issue for the Browns as they return from their bye. Mayfield could be back on the practice field by midweek as his five-day quarantine could expire as soon as Wednesday. 16. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (3-4-1) Last week’s rank: 18 The Eagles emerge from their bye with a chance to get to .500 when they face the Giants on Sunday at the Meadowlands. The hope for the Eagles is that more of their injured

players return and their lineup is not as depleted as it has been. 17. CHICAGO BEARS (5-4) Last week’s rank: 16 Things have gone awry since the switch from Mitchell Trubisky to Nick Foles as the starter at QB. Coach Matt Nagy could always switch back, if he wants. But that seems unlikely to help. The best move is probably sticking with Foles and hoping he somehow regains his magic touch from his playoff runs with the Eagles. 18. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (4-5) Last week’s rank: 17 The false positive test result for WR Kendrick Bourne that sidelined him and his high-risk close contacts Thursday night was unfortunate, from a competitive standpoint, for the 49ers. But, again, no one should expect competitive fairness in this coronavirus-altered NFL season. It’s debatable whether the on-field results would have been much different. 19. ATLANTA FALCONS (3-6) Last week’s rank: 20 The Falcons enter their bye with wins in two straight and three of four games. The post-bye schedule is tough, however, so any notions of climbing back to close to the .500 level are probably overly ambitious. 20. CINCINNATI BENGALS (2-5-1) Last week’s rank: 21 The Bengals return from their bye with a tough matchup Sunday at Pittsburgh. But they did have a pre-bye victory over the Titans. Could they become the fourth straight Steelers opponent to have a chance to tie or win in the closing seconds? 21. MINNESOTA VIKINGS (3-5) Last week’s rank: 22 Dalvin Cook has been unstoppable lately, and the Vikings are reassembling their broken season. But did they get started too late? 22. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (3-5) Last week’s rank: 27 The Patriots narrowly avoided

losing to the Jets on Monday night, erasing a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter and finally prevailing on Nick Folk’s field goal as time expired. Their season isn’t fixed. Far from it. But at least they didn’t suffer the ultimate indignity of losing to the Jets. 23. DENVER BRONCOS (3-5) Last week’s rank: 19 The late flurry made things interesting Sunday in Atlanta. But the comeback bid fell short and the overall performance, with such a slow start, was disappointing, given the opportunity that existed to reach the .500 mark. 24. DETROIT LIONS (3-5) Last week’s rank: 23 QB Matthew Stafford returned from his contact-tracing five-day quarantine to play Sunday at Minnesota but that wasn’t enough for the Lions to win. Stafford wasn’t able to practice during the week. But, again, those are just the sort of competitive issues with which teams must deal if there’s going to be an NFL season at all. 25. CAROLINA PANTHERS (3-6) Last week’s rank: 24 The Panthers played the Chiefs very tough and even had a ridiculously long field goal try at the end to complete the upset. But the ball sailed far wide to the right on Joey Slye’s 67-yard attempt and the season continues to slip away from the Panthers, who now must deal with a shoulder injury for RB Christian McCaffrey after he just returned from his ankle injury. 26. NEW YORK GIANTS (2-7) Last week’s rank: 29 If only they could play the Washington Football Team every week, the Giants would be thriving. Alas, the NFL schedule-makers are unlikely to comply. 27. HOUSTON TEXANS (2-6) Last week’s rank: 30 The Texans at least did not suffer the indignity of losing to the Jaguars this season. That’s not much. But at least it’s something.

Is American unity really possible?

W

e’ve made America great again. Despite his predictable temper tantrums we’ve made the worst so-called leader in memory a one-term president. President-Elect Joe Biden is already at work planning his administration. For most of the kowtowing sycophantic-elected Republicans, statesmanship is too far a reach so they don’t have the decency to congratulate Biden on his victory. It takes nerve to accuse one’s opponent of fraud when the world saw Donald Trump dismantle the post office in order to cheat. And isn’t it interesting that Republicans accept their Senate wins and House of Representatives gains as legitimate but only see fraud where Joe Biden Kelvin Wade is concerned? But we’ve had troubled transitions before. In 1828 when Andrew Jackson was announced as winner, his supporters actually stormed the White House, sending President John Quincy Adams fleeing out the back. And of course, Abraham Lincoln, having won with only 39.8% of the vote, saw seven Southern states secede from the union before he was even sworn in. The Washington drama will play out. Benedict Donald will take his rightful place as a would-be tyrant who failed to destroy the republic. But what about us? Is there any hope of e pluribus unum? Joe Biden gave a masterful unifying speech Saturday night but what effect will it have on the public? Calls for unity after elections have always rung hollow. Campaigns are long and hard and people give their time, money and energy to them. They’re passionate on the issues and in this case, often intoxicated by disinformation and a cult of personality. Unity isn’t likely. It’s unrealistic. How many of you 49ers fans celebrated the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory? Can we all get behind the Los Angeles Dodgers’ World Series win? Of course not. The pain of loss is too fresh. Too bitter. And the stakes of choosing our leaders are much greater than a sporting event. Al Gore delivered a grand concession speech in 2000 but Democrats weren’t ready to embrace George W. Bush as president. John McCain gave a classic concession speech in 2008 but his supporters seethed at the election of Barack Obama. And Hillary Clinton supporters were never going to come together with Trump supporters. Unity is a goal rarely attained in the aftermath of contentious elections. But one thing we have been able to count on is our leaders at least saying the right things. That was before we had a leader as petty as Donald Trump. So no politician will be able to unite this country. Unfortunately, it’s much easier for politicians to divide this country to devastating effect. And it’s easy to eliminate people with differing views from social media and our social circles. Families have fractured over political polarization. How do we escape this? I’m always drawn back to the origins of this column. Longtime readers know I was supposed to write a pointcounterpoint column with a conservative man named Lou Sturmer. We met several times and found out how much we agreed on politically and outside of politics. For instance, we shared a love of computers and had seen each other for years at computer shows prior to our meeting. It was eye-opening for both of us. Also, years ago a regular conservative critic of my column from Vacaville wrote to me after reading a column I’d written on the death of my Beagle brothers. He’d recently experienced the loss of his dog and we commiserated. The interaction didn’t change our political views but at least we could see each other as human beings. That is our path to unity. There are some political and human rights issues that won’t allow for compromise. We’ll passionately fight that out with our votes and representatives. But the 75 million who voted for Joe Biden and the 70 million who voted for Donald Trump have a lot more that binds them than divides them. Or we can draw a line in the sand, dump friends who disagree with us, break up our families along red and blue and see how long we remain the United States of America. Peace.

I would like to make clear that this was not an intentional act on someone’s part here at the DR to minimize what looks to be the election of Biden and Harris to lead the country for the next four years. What it is is an example of how paid advertising and the efforts of the newsroom sometimes collide unexpectedly. I have kidded for three days now that this is an example of the notion that no good deed goes unpunished. But again, there’s nothing funny about any of this. So, how do we prevent something like this from happening again? First and foremost, we will no longer truncate the DR’s nameplate graphic along the top of the page. That way whenever there’s a sticky notes ads, it is not likely to cause this type of situation to occur. Yes, it will cover a tease to something that’s inside the paper. That’s basically unavoidable.

VA is doing its part to keep their stories alive digitally. This year, we launched the Veterans Legacy Memorial, an online resource that allows family members to tell the stories of their loved one’s service. The goal of our National Cemetery Administration is to ensure that “no veteran ever dies,” and we achieve that by making sure we never forget the stories of those who served us so honorably. More than 19 million veterans are still with us, and our mission at VA is to ensure that they return home to enjoy life as civilians in the country they risked all to defend. The transition is not easy for many, and the VA has launched an ambitious effort to address veterans’ mental health and end veteran suicide. You can be part of this historic effort. We are building a network of information and resources so veterans can get the help they need either at the VA or in their own community. We are bringing together faith-based groups, schools, companies and local, state and federal government offices to teach Americans how they can talk to people who need mental health care, and how to direct them to help. You can learn more at VA’s PREVENTS office, and through the REACH campaign that we launched this year. Participating in these efforts is a way to say “thank you” that can literally save lives and help us make sure these veterans return all the way home. Robert L. Wilkie is secretary of Veterans Affairs. He wrote this for InsideSources.com.

The host of “Jeopardy!,” Alex Trebek, rehearses for an upcoming January 2011 show featuring a trivia showdown against an IBM computer in Yorktown Heights, New York. Trebek died Sunday.

6 of Alex Trebek’s most heartwarming ‘Jeopardy!’ moments Sonaiya K elley Los Angeles Times

“Jeopardy!” host Alex Trebek died Sunday after a year-and-a half-long battle with pancreatic cancer. The beloved game show host held the mantle for 36 years, during which he impacted countless contestants and fans of the show and elevated “Jeopardy!” and its iconic theme song into the cultural zeitgeist. Here, a sampling of some of Trebek’s most heartwarming moments through the years.

1. The time everyone risked it all on an incorrect answer Trebek had this to say after all three contestants risked their entire earnings on the same incorrect answer: “Hey folks, easy come, easy go.”

2. This evolution of Trebek’s facial hair over the years The host’s facial hair has gone through multiple iterations over the years. He even filmed videos showcasing his shaving process from goatee to mustache and from mustache to clean shaven.

3. His emotional reaction to a contestant betting nearly $2,000 to say “We love you, Alex!” In an unforgettable

moment as he continued his battle with cancer, the usually unflappable Trebek’s voice quavered as he fought back tears. But he quickly regained his composure.

4. The ‘ ‘Jeopardy!’ comedy hour’ After two contestants wrote in joke answers on a question they were stumped by, Trebek turned to the camera and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, I’d like to welcome you to the ‘Jeopardy!’ comedy hour.”

5. The time he enacted football plays in a category he developed (and illustrated) himself We don’t know which is more entertaining: Trebek’s gestures or his illustrated clues.

6. The time he was interviewed about his love of the Lakers while wearing a Lakers jersey The longtime basketball fan was seen courtside at a Lakers game as recently as last year and took a moment to honor Kobe Bryant before his last game in 2016: “To be able to sit there with my son or my daughter and watch Kobe and the team play and win was very exciting. It’s even more exciting than when they lose.”

The host of “Jeopardy!,” Alex Trebek, rehearses for an upcoming January 2011 show featuring a trivia

showdown against an IBM computer in Yorktown Heights, New York. Trebek died Sunday; he was 80.

Alex Trebek was there for me on one of the worst days of my life Erica Palan

The Philadelphia Inquirer

O

n March 7, 2019, longtime Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek announced he’d been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. I remember the date because it was one of the worst days of my life. I flashed back to that moment on Sunday afternoon when my phone pinged to tell me that Trebek had died after more than a year of battling his illness. On March 7, 2019, I’d received a similarly sad alert on my phone about Trebek’s diagnosis. At that moment, I was sitting in an ICU waiting room while doctors worked to save my sister’s life. ICUs are bleak places. They create odd bedfellows, people who wouldn’t normally be in the same place at the same time, but are joined by the exhaustion and worry of sitting vigil over their sick loved ones. No one wants to be there. There’s rarely any talking, except for people whispering updates into cellphones or asking directions to the bathroom. As we all sat there that day, staring at our phones and the walls, everyone in the waiting room got the same alert about Trebek’s cancer. There were gasps. People started talking about him, about “Jeopardy!.” It didn’t last more than a minute or two, but it was one of those rare moments when everyone, regardless of what divides them otherwise, cares about exactly the same thing at

Daily Cryptoquotes

It’s calming to see Alex up there every night, asking questions, cracking dad jokes, keeping things on track. The formula of the show makes it predictable. There’s no reason to feel anxious while watching. exactly the same time. Everyone in that room had plenty to worry about and pray for that day, but I think we all spared a prayer for Alex Trebek. During scary times – like a suddenly sick relative – it can feel like the world has turned upside down. I don’t mean to conflate my relationship with or concern for my older sister with my feelings about a gameshow host, but to be fair, I’ve known them both for the same amount of time: Trebek has been on TV every night of my life. Whether or not I tuned in, I, and everyone else, always knew where to find him. He was always there, a constant, someone you could count on good days and bad. In a moment when I was already sad and scared and worried, it was jarring to think of someone as omnipresent as Alex Trebek dying. And weirdly, it was also comforting, just for a moment, to think of someone else. When you’re in the middle of an intense situation, like rushing to the ICU to see a loved one, your thoughts tunnel rapidly into one unstoppable drumbeat of: Let it be OK. To have that drumbeat broken by news is healthy.

It reminds us that there is a world outside of the problem we’re currently facing and that the world is marching on even as we’re grappling with an extraordinary challenge. This is part of why I love news. News – even bad news – unites us as people. And in that moment, I was relieved to be united with people, even if it was about a TV game show host being sick. My sister got better, and for a while, it seemed Alex did too. We watched Jeopardy! in the hospital and at home during the long year of her recovery. I hadn’t watched it too much as an adult, but it was on every night of my childhood. And it’s become a part of my evening routine many nights again. When the world feels broken and insane, Jeopardy! is a reliable comfort. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that you can hear it blaring from hospital and nursing home rooms every night at 7 p.m. It’s calming to see Alex up there every night, asking questions, cracking dad jokes, keeping things on track. The formula of the show makes it predictable. There’s no reason to feel anxious while watching. In a strange way, Alex Trebek was there for me in a terrible moment. I’m thankful that my reason for being in the ICU worked out OK and I’m glad that Alex got more time after that first sad announcement. I’ll miss him, and I’ll remember him. But most of all, I’m grateful to him, for always being there when we needed him.

many players. How should South try to make his contract of four spades after West leads the heart ace, then shifts to a trump? North’s redouble showed 10 or more points and fewer than four spades. His two-spade rebid promised game-invitational values with three-card support. South jumped to game with only a six-loser hand. Declarer has nine winners in spades and clubs. If East has the diamond ace, declarer’s diamond king will be trick 10. But on the bidding, that is most unlikely. Is there a different way to rake in 10 winners? There is if trumps are 3-2. South takes the second trick on the board and ruffs a heart. He continues with a club to the jack, a second heart ruff, a club to the king and another heart ruff. With some anxiety, declarer leads his spade king and overtakes with dummy’s ace.

Suisun police sort out details of Friday shooting that left 1 dead, 1 hurt Amy Maginnis-Honey

amaginnis@dailyrepublic.net

SUISUN CITY — Police are still investigating a Friday evening shooting that left one person dead. An arrest was made Friday night, said Suisun City Police Chief Aaron Roth in an email. The details are still being ironed out. “At this point, we believe the evidence points to the suspect we initially arrested may have acted in self-defense,” Roth wrote, adding he would not release the name of the individual arrested. The Solano County Coroner’s Office would not release the victim’s name Tuesday, saying it was a protected case. Roth said he didn’t have information on the second victim, noting that per-

son’s injuries were not life-threatening. The individual arrested is not facing charges at this point, Roth said. He wasn’t sure if the person had been released from custody. The 26-year-old man was booked into the county jail early Saturday on suspicion of murder but was released from custody Tuesday, according to jail records. “We have some digital evidence we need to go through, but unless there is evidence of significant value that is contrary to what we have gathered so far, there may not be formal charges filed in this incident,” Roth wrote. The shooting was reported shortly after 9:20 p.m. inside a home on the 1200 block of Gray Hawk Lane.

Napa Land Trust buys land for UC reserve system Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Nearly 500 acres of land next to Markley Cove on Lake Berryessa has been purchased and will be part of the University of California, Davis, Natural Reserve System. The 482 acres was purchased by the Napa Land Trust. It connects to the Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monument, the Bureau of Reclamation land surrounding Lake Berryessa and the U.C. Natural Reserve System’s 638-acre Stebbins Cold Canyon Natural Reserve. “We’re pleased to work with the UC Davis Natural Reserves to protect this land,” Doug Parker, chief executive officer of the Napa Land Trust, said in a statement. “Connecting protected properties together, as we’re doing here, enhances previous investments in conservation, ensures broad corridors for wildlife movement over the long-term and in this case, will provide additional opportunities for scientific research and teaching.” The property includes extensive oak woodlands, dominated by

interior live oak, as well as montane chaparral and chamise chaparral. It provides scenic values from Highway 128, the statement said. The UC Natural Reserve System consists of 41 reserves totaling more than 1,171.87 square miles (750,000 acres) across the state. “ T hese reser ves provide locations for faculty and students to conduct long-term research and teaching. The Reserve System will own and manage the property as part of their mission to ‘contribute to the understanding and wise stewardship of the Earth and its natural systems by supporting universitylevel teaching, research and public service at protected natural areas throughout California,’ ” the statement said. The property will be added to the Stebbins Cold Canyon Natural Reserve, which is named after UC Davis professor G. Ledyard Stebbins, who was instrumental in establishing the university’s Department of Genetics. For more information, visit napalandtrust.org or contact the Land Trust of Napa County at 252-3270.

Command and control airmen are the central point for all information coming into and departing the Tactical Operations Center.

Travis airmen test new concepts, enable joint forces Tech. Sgt. Liliana Moreno Travis Air Force Base

TRAVIS AIR FORCE BASE — Airmen from the 621st Contingency Response Wing successfully tested new command and control concepts and sling load capabilities while participating in Green Flag Little Rock 21-01 recently at the Joint Readiness Training Center and Little Rock Air Force Base, Arkansas. One scenario was particularly valuable in exploring how the contingency response element might assume command and control of Mobility Air Forces in the event of Air Operations Center disruption. Lt. Col. Dan Richardson, 821st Contingency Response Support Squadron operations officer, said to mitigate this challenge with command and control, the joint force has emphasized a concept called “missiontype orders.” Rather than relying on centralized control, decentralized execution – a tenet of air power – there is a recognition that, in a contested environment, the joint force commander must be prepared to temporarily transition to decentralized control and decentralized execution during attacks on

C2 capabilities. “This is not easy to do. It pushes the authority and responsibility for operational C2 down the chain of command to lower echelons,” Richardson said. “In the case of [this exercise], it temporarily pushed operational C2 of mobility assets in the exercise joint operations area from the 618th AOC to the CRE. “All of this ensures that in a fight against a capable adversary, the loss of primary operational C2 channels doesn’t stop the JFC’s ability to fight,” he said. “CR has a large role to play in that space as first responders with organic C2 equipment and personnel, and this exercise allowed us to explore how we might accelerate change to our C2 capabilities.” For Tech. Sgt. Nicole McLaurin, 921st Contingency Response Squadron command and control operations controller, this exercise was the first of its kind. “I’ve been in the CR for four years and have had the privilege of experiencing many exercises, but this one was different,” she said. “At two different points, [Air Mobility Division] was unable to provide C2 and we had to take over operations for

the entire theater. The mobile C2 team needed to develop a plan on how we would ensure that ops didn’t stop.” To do this, the CRE had to figure out what the joint force commander needed to continue the fight. For example, when and where personnel and equipment were needed. “We coordinated with the drop and landing zones downrange, which enabled resupply for the Army,” McLaurin said. “It felt great to see the actual impact we were having – it was an awesome experience.” In another example of accelerating change, the contingency response team also honed their sling load capabilities while working alongside soldiers from the 77th Combat Aviation Brigade out of Camp Robinson, Arkansas. To get her, t hey tested the ability of the UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter to effectively sling load a Polaris MRZR allterrain vehicle, a first for Air Mobility Command. To further this capability, airmen from the 621st CRS together with soldiers from the 3rd Combat Aviation Brigade out of Fort Stewart-Hunter Army Airfield, Georgia, trained on simultaneously sling

loading two Humvees on CH-47 Chinook helicopters during Exercise Guardian Shield, which occurred Nov. 2-6 at the North Auxiliary Airfield near Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina. Adding sling loading to the Contingency Response tool kit will help U.S. Transportation Command deploy contingency response teams faster to areas of need. It will also allow the assessment team, also known as “Alpha Mike,” the ability to rapidly deploy their small eight-man teams, vehicles and equipment to insert into an airfield posthurricane or a combat landing zone in a contested or degraded environment. “Sling load of the MRZR was an operational proof of concept for the CRW. This provides the CRW and combatant commanders with additional rotary wing options for inserting into an airfield with an unknown status,” said Maj. Brian Crawford, 921st CRS assessment team lead. “The airmen of the 621st CRW assumed risk and moved past previous limitations to further our mission.” Tech. Sgt. Liliana Moreno is assigned to the 621st Contingency Response Wing public affairs unit.

presentations. CHP offices also will be holding distracted driving enforcement operations through Sept. 30, 2021. “Distracted driving continues to be a serious issue on our roadway, and it is entirely avoidable,” CHP Commissioner Warren Stanley said in a statement. “With the support of this grant, we can implement lifesav-

ing efforts throughout California that will raise awareness and hopefully change dangerous behavior behind the wheel.” On average, there are more than 20,000 drivers in California involved in a crash every year during which inattention is a factor. Cellphone use continues to be the primary distraction, the CHP reported.

“These statistics are likely much higher and are often under-reported to law enforcement since motorists do not always admit to driving distracted,” Stanley said in the statement. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration provided funding for the program through the California Office of Traffic Safety.

Tiger: Best finish this year 37th at PGA From Page B1 Couples, the 1992 Masters champion, has four top-15 finishes since turning 50. Those are impressive performances for old pros, though they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite fit my definition of contending. But Langer and Couples at their peaks were never as good as Woods. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the only modern player on the top tier with Nicklaus, who was older than Woods when he won in the 1986 Masters and then had three more top-10 finishes before bowing out. Nicklaus is the template for Tiger as he makes a run at a sixth green jacket this year, and more in the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It can be done,â&#x20AC;? Woods said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a golf course in which having an understanding how to play and where to miss it and how to hit the shots around here, it helps. The golf course keeps getting longer. It gets a little bit more

difficult as Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gotten older and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite hit it as far.â&#x20AC;? Those words harken back to when Augusta began â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tiger-proofingâ&#x20AC;? the course in the years after Woods overpowered it for his first Masters victory in 1997. The layout became longer, the fairways narrower and the rough rougher. Many of the changes came after Woods won the 2001 Masters for his fourth-straight major championship. That was the middle portion of a dominant run of golf for Woods. He was so young and so good that besting Nicklausâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; majors record seemed inevitable. Then self-inflicted personal problems and a bad back derailed his career at the same time a generation of golfers inspired by him started winning tournaments. Woods was so broken for so long that it seemed the 2008 U.S. Open, won over Rocco Mediate in a sudden-death playoff, would be his last victory

in a major. The 2019 Masters changed that view. Woods wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t washed up, after all. I was there for that triumph. It was the greatest sporting event Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve witnessed. Fans were in a frenzy. It was elation mixed with disbelief. No one could believe what they were seeing. Woods was back and so was the Sunday â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tiger roarâ&#x20AC;? that signaled he was on his way to winning another tournament. The people were pulling for Tiger. It made a difference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They helped me win,â&#x20AC;? Woods said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The support that I had, the energy that was around the property, it was electric that day.â&#x20AC;? That scene wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be repeated this year. Covid-19 restrictions are keeping fans off the course. Woods memorably hugged his children and mother soon after leaving the final green last year. This week his entourage includes only his girlfriend and long-time friend Rob McNamara, a

vice president for Woodsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; company. A Woods Masters victory this year wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be as fun, but it would go in the record books same as the others. He would add to his legacy as the greatest golfer of his generation and close the gap with Nicklaus for greatest of all time. Doing so will require Woods to put together his best week of the year. Woods has played six Tour events since the pandemic interrupted the schedule. His best finish was 37th at the PGA Championship in August. Woods missed the cut at the U.S. Open and failed to qualify for the Tour Championship. Woods had better results in the weeks before the 2019 Masters. But he says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in better health this time, which makes it easier for him to work on the high draw shots that he fine-tuned before winning last year. Perhaps thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sign the break in the schedule was good for his back.

Wâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s: Look to contend again for NBA title From Page B1 Gasol, Serge Ibaka or Mason Plumlee could help address the need for a center. Danilo Gallinari, a 6-foot-10 power forward who averaged 18.7 points and 5.2 rebounds per game while shooting 40.5% from 3-point range

28. LOS ANGELES CHARGERS (2-6) Last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rank: 26 Does every Chargers game end the same way? Do they have to lose in such excruciating fashion every single time? The call made on the instant replay review was correct. The ball hit the ground and the Chargersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; would-be game-winning TD catch was rightly overturned. Even so, it was all just so Charger-ish. 29. WASHINGTON FOOTBALL TEAM (2-6) Last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rank: 25 The personal stories for Ron Rivera and Alex Smith are inspiring. But the harsh football reality is that this is now a 2-6 team with a 36-year-old starter at QB. So that means the present is bleak, and the future is not exactly promising. 30. DALLAS COWBOYS (2-7) Last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rank: 28 The Cowboys have all but

reached the point of asking for volunteers to come down from the stands to start at QB. The effort Sunday against the Steelers was spirited. Garrett Gilbert had some decent moments as he succeeded Dak Prescott, Andy Dalton and Ben DiNucci as the starting QB. But an actual win? Nope. 31. JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (1-7) Last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rank: 31 The upside of rookie QB Jake Luton was on display Sunday, particularly with his 73-yard TD on his second NFL pass. He should play the rest of this lost season so the Jaguars have some idea what he can and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do. 32. NEW YORK JETS (0-9) Last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rank: 32 That was close. The Jets nearly made the mistake of winning and squandering their chance to be in position to draft Trevor Lawrence. You play to win the game?
