Matyas admits testing raises reporting questions
SACRAMENTO — California officials in charge of the state’s unemployment benefits system failed for months to heed warnings of widespread claims fraud during the Covid-19 pandemic, resulting in billions of dollars paid out on fraudulent claims, a state audit said Thursday. The report by State Auditor Elaine Howle said at least $10.4 billion in fraud has been identified on the first $112 billion in benefits paid since the pandemic began. But more claims have been paid since the audit was final-
ized – the number is now $114 billion – so officials of the state Employment Development Department said earlier this week they now have confirmed more than $11 billion in fraud, and are investigating $19 billion in other, suspicious claims for potential fraud. “EDD did not take substantive action to bolster its fraud detection efforts for its [unemployment insurance] program until months into the pandemic,” Howle wrote to the governor and Legislature. “Specifically, EDD waited about four months to automate a key anti-fraud measure, See EDD, Page A8

FAIRFIELD — Solano County’s top health official admitted that the test used to detect a positive novel coronavirus result does raise issues on how those numbers are reported. However, Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said the likelihood of the testing resulting in false-positives – as some critics of the test claim happens – is very, very low. Some of the critics have been challenging the Board of Supervisors and calling on the county to be more transparent about the test. Many of those critics also question the legitimacy of the vaccine and have wrongly attested that people are being forced to take the shots. Matyas said while it is produced differently than past vaccines, he stands by its legitimacy and said it is actually safer to take. “It is absolutely a vaccine. It is made to prevent disease,” Matyas said. He said the demand for the vaccine is high in the county. Matyas said the real question about the novel coronavirus test is not whether there is a false-positive, but whether the positive result is at a level at which the person should actually be reported as having been infected. In turn, there’s the question of whether a person who is infected, but at such a low level, poses any

Vallejo case numbers eclipse 8,000 FAIRFIELD — A bus will roll into Solano County next week that will allow 550 more Covid-19 tests to be administered each day. The BusTest Express, which launched its 45-foot self-sustaining mobile medical testing and treatment motorcoach program in December, will be at the Solano County Health and Social
Services complex, 2101 Courage Drive, in Fairfield on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. It also brings the promise of more vaccinations. Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said the company has piloted a vaccination program in four counties, including Sonoma. He is looking forward to when it is expanded to Solano. While that will reduce testing capacity, Matyas said he would See Capacity, Page A8
US jobless claims fell by more than expected last week Tribune Content Agency Applications for U.S. state unemployment benefits fell last week, signaling that job cuts may be easing after rising in December and early January. Initial jobless claims in regular state programs fell by 67,000 to 847,000 in the week ended Jan. 23, Labor Department data showed Thursday. On an unadjusted basis, initial jobless claims dropped to 873,966.
Continuing claims – an estimate of the number of Americans filing for ongoing unemployment benefits – dropped by 203,000 to 4.77 million in the week ended Jan. 16. Bloomberg’s survey of economists had called for 875,000 initial claims and 5.09 million continuing claims. Despite the decline, the initial claims figure is still more than four times pre-pandemic See Claims, Page A8
Biden changes health coverage, women’s health funding policies Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — The Biden administration announced two wide-ranging health care executive actions on Thursday – one expanding access to reproductive health care and another supporting enrollment in the individual insurance market and Medicaid.
President Joe Biden signed the documents early Thursday afternoon, saying the action would “undo the damage Trump has done.” “There is nothing new that we’re doing here other than restoring the Affordable Care Act and restoring Medicaid to the way it was before Trump became president,” said Biden,
who spoke from the Oval Office and did not take questions. “The second order I’m signing relates to protecting women’s health at home and abroad.” “We’ve got a lot to do and the first thing we’ve got to do is get this Covid package passed,” he added, calling on Congress to clear additional relief to respond to the pandemic.
The two executive actions instruct the Department of Health and Human Services to reconsider existing Trump administration policies. The first order focuses on the 2010 health care law, and directs HHS to open a special enrollment period on HealthCare.gov for individuals to enroll in insurance coverage from Feb. 15,
coming this weekend
2021, through May 15, 2021. National open enrollment ended Dec. 15, 2020, but the White House says the new period is necessary because millions of unenrolled Americans are eligible for federal assistance. The White House has not yet provided projections on how many See Biden, Page A8

Habitat dedicates second veterans home in Solano Amy Maginnis-Honey
amaginnis@dailyrepublic.net
RIO VISTA — SolanoNapa Habitat for Humanity dedicated its second permanent home for veterans Thursday in Rio Vista. The first one is in Dixon. The event took place virtually with C ov id -19 r e s t r ic tions in place. It also marked the first time regular Habitat volunteers didn’t do the majority of work. Some of the volunteers are in age groups at risk for the novel coronavirus. Local trades stepped up to finish the 2,500-squarefoot, si x-bedroom, three-bathroom home. The home will be managed by Berkeley Food and Housing Project, one of the project’s partners. Key players also included Solano County, Rio Vista and neighboring American Legion Post 178. Veterans are scheduled to move in Monday. “Berkeley Food and Housing Project is extremely grateful for this moment and to move six veterans experiencing homelessness into their own home on Feb. 1,”
said Calleene Egan, the organization’s executive director. “The resilience and perseverance of our partners and supporters has been and continues to be the silver lining in an otherwise very challenging period. Through this journey we have learned that community, collaboration and unity are what it takes to end veteran homelessness.” “This project brought together Habitat’s ability to build housing that is affordable with Berkeley Food and Housing Project’s desire to ease and end the crisis of homelessness in our communities,” said Andrew Killeen, executive director of Solano-Napa Habitat. The initial ceremony to break ground was in August 2019. “Shared housing offers a more affordable option and creates social connectivity that helps prevent the isolation that so many of our veterans, especially seniors, experience in individual units,” said Angela Upshaw, associate director of programs for the Berkeley Food and Housing Project. “The genuine camaraderie established
within shared housing supports the social, mental and physical well-being of veterans and positively influences permanent and sustainable housing.” The 2019 Point in Time count logged 147 veterans experiencing homelessness in Solano County alone, an increase of 18% from the previous year. “In our county, the words homeless and veterans should not be connected,” said Solano Count y Super v isor Mitch Mashburn. Video greetings were also sent in from Rep. John Garamendi and state Sen. Bill Dodd. Berkeley Food and Housing Project is celebrating its 51st year in operation. Its services reach across six counties, including Solano. The organization has been partnered with Veterans Affairs since 2013, providing supportive services for veteran families. For more information, visit bfhp.org. A second home for veterans, that will be separated by a rose garden, is being planned for the same area.

VACAVILLE — Police shot and killed a man Tuesday night in an incident that began with a driver performing donuts in the back parking lot at City Hall. The situation that ended with the shooting started at approximately 8:35 p.m. with a failed traffic stop in the area of City Hall, Lt. Mark Donaldson reports. A pursuit started and continued along Davis Street near the skate center, where an officer in a police vehicle reported being rammed by the suspect’s pickup truck, injuring the officer who was driving the vehicle, Donaldson reports.

Davis Street and Bella Vista Road, where officers were prepared for a pursuit intervention technique known as a PIT maneuver, Donaldson reports in a press release. Officers soon broadcast that shots had been fired. The driver was shot and died at the scene in spite of efforts by police and paramedics to save him, Donaldson said in the press release. The man’s name was withheld pending family notification, Donaldson said Wednesday in a previous update on the incident. A spokeswoman for the Coroner’s Office said late Thursday afternoon that the man’s name likely would not be released for quite some time. Donaldson in a sub-
sequent press release said three officers fired their weapons. Their names were not released. An account of what transpired immediately prior to the shooting was also not released. The officer who was injured had neck pain and shortness of breath and was taken to Kaiser Permanente Vacaville Medical Center, Donaldson said Wednesday in the case update and in the subsequent press release. The officer was treated and released and will remain off duty as he recovers from his injuries. The Solano County Major Crimes Task Force was deployed and is responsible for the investigation into the police shooting, Donaldson said.
FAIRFIELD — Fairfield and Suisun Transit, Solano County Transit and City Coach in Vacaville are among 11 transit agencies that have joined the new Clipper Start program. The program allows lower-income adults, ages 19 to 64, to receive fare discounts that range from 20% to 50% on most transit systems around the region, according to a statement released Wednesday by SolTrans, which serves Vallejo and Benicia. Clipper Start is an 18-month pilot program initiated by the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and Bay Area transit agencies that
use the Clipper transit fare payment system to reduce the cost of transportation for adults whose household incomes are no more than twice the federal poverty level. For example, that income level would be $52,400 for a family of four. The program provides for a 50% fare discount on SamTrans fares in San Mateo and the surrounding area, and 20% fare discounts on FAST, SolTrans and City Coach; and on AC Transit, which serves Alameda and Contra Costa counties; County Connection in central Contra Costa County; Napa Vine; Tri Delta Transit, which serves several communities in eastern Contra Costa County; Union
City Transit; WestCAT in western Contra Costa County; and Tri-Valley Wheels, which serves Livermore and the surrounding areas. Applicants to the pilot program can provide a copy of an Electronic Benefits Transfer card or Medi-Cal card, a county benefits eligibility letter, their Muni Lifeline card number or a copy of their last federal tax return to demonstrate eligibility, according to the statement about the program. Once approved, they will receive a personalized Clipper card that must be loaded with a cash value prior to use. Riders interested in Clipper Start can learn more about the program and apply online at clipperstartcard.com.

FAIRFIELD — The Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority and the San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District have unveiled a new rail improvement program and a website that outlines the objectives. Link21 connects BART and regional rail – including intercity, commuter and high-speed passenger rail – as well as “connecting people sustainably to employment opportunities and affordable housing throughout the 21-county Northern California megaregion,” a joint agency statement said.
“As we continue to offer vital services to our passengers during these challenging times, we are also looking ahead to the future,” BART General Manager Bob Powers said in the statement. “Link21 will connect passengers to the places they want to go throughout the megaregion.” Link21, formerly known as the New Transbay Rail Crossing, is comprised of projects that will provide more services, faster connections and job access for travelers in the region, according to a press release. One major project is a new transbay rail crossing
between Oakland and San Francisco, which would increase capacity for the overcrowded corridor and bring new passenger rail connections. That would include the potential for “a direct, one-seat ride between Sacramento and San Francisco.” A webinar is scheduled for 11 a.m. Feb. 4 to discuss the economic benefits of a new transbay crossing. For more information about the webinar, go to the Bay Area Council’s website, www. b ay a r e a c o u n c i l . o r g / event/bay-area-impactthe-megaregional-casef o r - a - n e w- t r a n s b a yrail-crossing/.

Mary Susan ZiĂĄlcita nĂŠe Pickard, known to her family and grandkids as Mema, passed away on Sunday, Jan. 3, 2021, of stage 4 breast cancer. Born June 9, 1948, in Birmingham, Aalabama, Susan was the eldest child and only daughter of Reverend Dr. William Pickard and Mary Ann Martin. Along with brothers, Henry, Marshall, James and Paul, her family served as Methodist missionaries in Tuguegarao, the Philippines. While studying at the University of the Philippines on a Study Abroad Program, she met the love of her life, Lorenzo ZiĂĄlcita, on a blind date. Though they were separated for 13 years, they were reunited in 1981 and were married on Aug. 8th of that year. She was a leader in every community she called home. Susan remained an active alumna of Agnes Scott College, from which she graduated in 1970.

It may turn out that there was some miscommunication or context that changes your understanding. But you sound like a thoughtful, supportive stepmom, so I have no doubt you’ll be able to handle this with care. Dear Annie: Not long ago you printed a letter from “Nearing the End.” They were reflecting on lost loved ones and bothered by the fact that it seemed like a lifetime of memories just disappeared when someone died. Most lives leave ripples in the pond of life. The writer might try looking for those positive ripples of grandchildren, a circle of friends, a church, old co-workers, neighbors or anywhere else. — Mike L.

And when he isn’t around, he leaves an awful hole, doesn’t he?” Thanks for writing. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@ creators.com.

Today’s birthday You’ll give up three things to gain one crucial ingredient to your success. The year is still young when you succeed at your purpose with loving eyes on you – what could be better.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). What keeps you from mixing it up right now? Do you think eventually this imperfection will get fixed and all will be different? What if this is it? You may as well tussle and play in this imperfect moment. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). Challenging scenarios and novel victories have their place, but that is a strategy for a different time. Right now, focus on the battle you know you can win. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The seasoned sailor tests the water, not out of fear but intelligence.

Obviously, if West has the diamond queen, life will be easy. So declarer just knows that that card will be offside. In addition, if East takes a trick with the diamond queen and gives his partner the lead in hearts, a low-club shift through dummy’s king could give South a nasty guess. (Since East is a passed hand, he is unlikely to have the diamond queen and club ace-queen, because West’s lead marks East with a high heart, probably the king.) But declarer can avoid those problems. He draws the remaining trump, plays a diamond to the king and exits with a heart, taken by West. What can he do? If West plays a second heart, South ruffs and leads a diamond. If West shows out (see the diagram), declarer ducks the trick to East, who is endplayed. He must lead a club around to the king, or play a diamond from the queen, or return a heart, conceding a ruff-and-sluff. (Declarer ruffs on the board to gain an eighth trump trick.)

ur new president, Joe Biden, takes diversity and the environment seriously. In fact, diversity and climate “sensitivity” may be more important in his appointments than demonstrated skill at the job for which they have been appointed. Biden has killed the Keystone XL Pipeline, which would have brought oil from the Canadian province of Alberta to North Dakota. No big deal – so he replaces it with oil that will be transported at higher cost to the United States. Now that Biden’s environmental credentials have been established, he turned to his other headline topic, which Bud Stevenson is, of course, diversity. His pick for assistant secretary of health is Rachel Levine. Why would Biden feature, with great fanfare, a relatively unimportant cabinet post? Simple – because Rachel Levine was born with male genitalia. That qualifies her for the Cabinet post, doesn’t it? Our new president’s choice for deputy secretary of education, Cindy Marten, once hosted a speaker at a diversity training seminar whose specialty, it appears, is gender issues. The speaker, Bettina Love, told the audience how important diversity was in today’s society. If you’re not aggravated enough, have you seen what the San Francisco School Board has done to the names of 44 schools in the city? Here’s a partial list of the school names that the school board finds unsuitable because of the racist, colonial history of those for whom the school were named: Abraham Lincoln and George Washington – both famous racists, don’t you know? Herbert Hoover, Roosevelt – but the school board didn’t know which Roosevelt, Teddy or Franklin, for which the school was named. Paul Revere was on the list because of his role in our sordid colonial past. Thomas Jefferson oppressed some group, perhaps by owning slaves. Of course, we know who wrote “The Star Spangled Banner,” although I’m not sure what his crimes were, other than the fact that our national anthem celebrates our colonial history (which it doesn’t). The list of names to be expunged includes two generals, Philip Sheridan and William Tecumseh Sherman. And names of Spaniards who were involved in colonizing Native American land had to go: Junipero Serra, the priest, Jose Sanchez, an early missionary, Jose Ortega – another colonizer – and Don Antonio de Ulloa. They went after a famous author whose name I learned at an early age. That would be Robert Louis Stevenson. Here’s one that’s a real puzzle. That would be Dianne Feinstein, for whom an elementary school is named. What was her crime, you might wonder? She allowed a flag display that included the Confederate flag to remain in front of City Hall. How could I forget? Any school whose name was associated with our colonial past has to go. That would be Presidio Middle School, Lawton K-8, named after U.S. Army officer Henry Ware Lawton, and Alamo Elementary will have to be renamed because Texas Rangers fought and probably killed Mexican soldiers there. So with Biden in the White House, and San Francisco under control of ultra-left officials, you can see where we’re headed.

At the beginning of the claim surge, EDD’s call center answered less than 1% of the calls it received. EDD quadrupled its available call center staff to more than 5,600 people in response to its call center problems, but these staff were often unable to assist callers and only marginally improved the percentage of calls it answered.” Howle’s report did not delve into the fraud scandal but she will issue another report this week on that aspect and it’s not likely to pull any punches. Su may not be the only political figure tarnished by the auditor’s twin reports. They generate more ammunition for the nascent recall campaign against Newsom that’s centered on his handling of the pandemic response. Recall backers, mostly Republican Party leaders and would-be Newsom successors, say they are very close to having enough signatures on petitions to force a recall election. He would be forced to defend why EDD plummeted off the rails, handing out billions of taxpayer dollars to crooks while failing to quickly process legitimate claims.

took incomplete action against claims filed from suspicious addresses, and removed a key safeguard against improper payments without fully understanding the significance of the safeguard.” The audit notes that in May 2020, the EDD was warned by the Department of Labor’s Office of the Inspector General that California was likely to see at least $1.2 billion in potential fraud based on the 2.9 million new claims that the EDD had received in March and April 2020. But some key anti-fraud systems were not put in place until September and October, months after the warning was issued. The audit said it mishandled a problem that arose in September when Bank of America, which contracts to issue debit cards for the state, froze 344,000 debit cards on which unemployment benefits were paid out to claimants. “EDD did not have a plan in place to ensure that it could unfreeze those accounts found to belong to legitimate claimants, and it has been slow to acknowledge its role in freezing

these accounts,” Howle wrote to the governor. The audit said the EDD put its unemployment program at higher risk for fraud “by relying on uninformed and disjointed techniques” to detect and prevent fraud by those posing as legitimate claimants. It also faulted the agency for failing to establish a centralized unit responsible for managing fraud prevention and detection efforts. A review by the EDD found many addresses with multiple claims: “The most egregious example from this analysis was a case of more than 1,700 claims going to a single address,” the report said. Lawmakers including Assemblywoman Cottie Petrie-Norris, D-Laguna Beach, voiced concern Thursday about the audit findings. “This audit makes it clear that EDD lost billions of taxpayer dollars not because they were outwitted by criminal masterminds, but because of basic failures and downright inexcusable mistakes,” said PetrieNorris, chairwoman of the Assembly Accountability and Administrative Review Committee.

risk of spreading the virus. “So there is a valid question to whether the (case) numbers we are reporting are valid,” Matyas said. At issue is how many cycles within the testing it takes to show a positive result, and that starts with the quantity of raw material being tested – in this case, the virus. Matyas said for most virus testing, anything that reaches cycles above the mid-30s has a questionable result. “In this disease, we have been going up to 41, 42 (cycles) and the laboratory world has raised a concern,” Matyas said. “The issue is not a false-positive,” Matyas said. “The issue is whether a person who tests positive in a higher cycle . . . is infected.” In other words, the higher-cycle results clearly show the person has been exposed, but does not necessarily mean the person has been infected. Matyas said if that is true, then perhaps that person should not be classified as a Covid-19 case. So the next question is, what percentage of the reported cases fall into that testing category? Matyas said he has asked his Public Health staff to determine how many of the tests conducted in the local lab
require the higher cycle testing for the positive outcome. “I just don’t know,” Matyas said. If that number is as high as 50%, and Matyas is not saying that is the case because it could be 5%, then the number of cases in Solano County could be much lower. Even if that percentage is determined, he said the Solano County lab represents only a “small fraction” of all the testing in the county. The majority of tests are done at state laboratories. He said he has asked the state for its testing information. “And they have not been willing to release their Ct, cycle time, data,” Matyas said. The state officials do not believe it is relevant to the larger Covid issue. Matyas agrees there is still a value in the test. It allows Public Health to trace the transmission source and others who have come into contact with that source, and that can help prevent further spread of the disease. But it does not necessarily justify listing those individuals as actual cases. Added to the overall discussion is how many of the deaths attributed to Covid-19 are actually caused by the disease. Matyas is on record saying that the Covidrelated deaths that are being reported only
means that the person who died had tested positive for the virus. Whether or not the disease actually killed the person, or even contributed to the death, is, at best, difficult to determine, Matyas has reported. For example, those individuals who were already under hospice care were expected to die in a fairly short period of time. But Matyas also has made it clear that many of the individuals reported as a Covid-related death, even with serious underlying health issues, would have very likely lived longer had they not contracted the virus. Some may have had many years left. Pragmatically, the debate raises questions about the state’s response to the disease, and whether the negative personal and economic effects were necessary – at least to the levels that have been experienced. Matyas has also expressed many times his disagreement with the state’s Covid-19 response and has always advocated for decisions to be based on the risk of transmission, not blanket state and regional policies. Still, he emphasizes Covid-19 is very much a real disease that can be fatal and proper protocols should be followed, including wearing a
face covering, social distancing, frequent handwashing and avoiding larger social gatherings in which those protocols are more difficult to follow. Also, if anyone is showing symptoms of the disease, that person needs to stay home. Avoiding close contact with susceptible populations is also strongly advised. In addition to Solano County, the local Public Health lab serves Napa, Yolo, Marin and Mendocino counties. “And it is an important, vital resource during Covid-19,” Jayleen Richards, the Public Health administrator, said in an email. “The PH lab is an important infrastructure needed during this pandemic and we need state lawmakers to invest in this infrastructure so we can respond to the current and future pandemics.” Most people who have Covid-19 experience only mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. Some people, especially older adults and those with underlying health problems, experience more severe illness such as pneumonia and at times, death. The vast majority of people recover. The World Health Organization reports people with mild illness recover in about two weeks, while those with more severe illness may take three to six weeks to recover.

Capacity: Solano, Sonoma share bus From Page One rather see it do nothing but vaccinations at that point – 550 a day. The coaches are “equipped with the infrastructure needed to conduct Covid-19 testing, provide vaccinations, and offer other health and wellness services anywhere in the country,” the BusTest group announced in a statement. “BusTest ExpressSM will revolutionize the health care industry’s outreach capacity by providing easier access and greater flexibility to health care services,” Donald Storer, co-founder and president of BusTest ExpressSM, said in the statement. “These buses are designed for mobility, and can go wherever they’re needed to dramatically increase health care capacity in both urban centers and rural areas, along with underserved and hard-to-reach pop-
ulations,” Storer said in the statement. “Our business model plans for rapid growth and deployment in this newly developed service industry, and we are looking for partners in the motorcoach industry nationwide.” The motorcoach will arrive as Solano County health officials are hoping the daily case rate will show a significant decrease. Matyas said he expects to see daily increases in the low-100s rather than the high-100s that have been reported this week. There were 169 new cases Thursday, taking the total to 27,486. The increase from Tuesday to Wednesday was 176 cases. The number of deaths attributed at least in part to Covid-19 went up one Thursday to 122. The person was a woman in her 80s who was living at home. Hospitalizations were down to 137, one fewer than Wednesday, and the decline is consistent with
the downward trend in cases, Matyas said. “Fortunately, we are seeing a reduction in hospitalizations as well, but we will continue to see an increase in the number of deaths,” said Matyas, noting that the death reports out of the community are slower to reach Public Health. The intensive care unit capacity was at 17%, up from 10% Wednesday, and the seven-day positive testing rate as at 16.9%, slightly down from 17.3%, the county reported. Vallejo added 73 new cases to take its total beyond the 8,000 threshold, bringing the count to 8,034. Fa ir field added 38 cases to take its total to 7,590. Vacaville is at 7,223 after 33 new cases. Suisun City (1,879) added 14 new cases; Dixon (1,638) and Benicia (774) each had five new cases; Rio Vista (262) added one; and there were no new cases added to the 86 in the unincorporated area.
Testing numbers are slowing, Matyas said, which is consistent with a decrease in the disease. The county reported 195,6 6 7 residents have been tested, and 250,682 tests have been administered overall. Active cases climbed to 1,505, an increase of 33 over Wednesday’s report. The BusTest Express coach will be located at the county Health and Social Services complex, 2101 Courage Drive in Fairfield. OptumServe, a state operation that also runs testing sites in Vacaville and Vallejo, will run the testing out of the bus. The state also runs the Verily site in Fairfield. The company has busses in Contra Costa, Fresno, Imperial, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Mateo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara, Sonoma, Stanislaus and Tulare counties. Solano shares the bus with Sonoma County.
Claims: Stock futures edged higher From Page One levels, underscoring the impact on employment from pandemic-related business shutdowns. Job cuts aren’t likely to drop significantly until widespread inoculations allow services like restaurants to fully reopen.
California this week lifted stay-at-home orders and New York State said some restrictions can be eased, which could stem some job cuts in the coming weeks. A separate report Thursday showed that the economy downshifted in the final three months
of 2020 after record third-quarter growth. Gross domestic product expanded at a 4% annualized rate in the fourth quarter, according to a preliminary estimate released by the Commerce Department. U.S. stock futures and yields on the 10-year Trea-
sury edged higher after the government releases. While the economy has been steady in areas including housing and manufacturing in recent months, the labor market has struggled to bounce back, especially due to weakness in the services sector.
Biden: Protecting access to Medicaid From Page One would benefit or what the marketing and outreach budget would be. A nominee for Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services administrator, who would be at the helm of much of this policy, has not been named yet. HHS will be reviewing and reconsidering policies that are antithetical to the purpose of coverage under the health law and Medicaid. Those policies to be reviewed include any efforts to undermine protections for preexisting
health conditions or the individual market or that make receiving marketplace coverage harder or more expensive. A Biden White House official on Thursday stressed the importance of protecting access to Medicaid, the federal-state program for the poor, and said CMS would be instructed to review any waivers that reduce coverage. This will likely include Medicaid waivers that some states have sought to add work requirements as a condition of Medicaid expansion coverage.
The Supreme Court is expected to hear oral arguments this year related to the Trump administration’s approval of work requirements. Biden’s actions on reproductive health include ending funding restrictions to nongovernmental organizations that perform or promote abortions outside the United States, and starting the process to lift a Trump administration rule that prohibits funding to family planning providers who perform abortions or provide abortion referrals. The first change, to
what’s often called the Mexico City Policy, prohibits international aid to NGOs that support abortion abroad. It has been instituted during every Republican presidency since Ronald Reagan in 1984. The second major step would start the process of rolling back changes to Title X, the nation’s federally funded family planning program. Planned Parenthood officials and other advocates hope more administrative action on women’s health is in store.

SBDC meets business challenges during Covid-hit 2020 In brief Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
FA IR F IELD — The Covid-19 pandemic has created a surge of new business at the Solano Small Business Development Center. The Solano SBDC, in 2020, offered one-on-one advice to 936 business, a nearly 90% increase from 2019. While there was a wide range of topics discussed, SBDC officials said the most common was related to loans and grants, marketing and pivoting business models in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. “When the pandemic first began in March and April, we went from being a well-kept secret to a valuable resource for a lot of small businesses almost
overnight,� SBDC Director Tim Murrill said in a statement. “We fielded hundreds of phone calls. Between March and May, we helped over 600 businesses with their SBA loans.� Solano Small Business Development Center clients reported $9.6 million in loans or equity that the center helped them to receive during the year. Other milestones for 2020 included 33 new business starts and $16 million in reported increased sales. In addition, the center offered close to 100 online webinars with nearly 1,300 attendees, the statement said. CARES Act funding also allowed the center to hire additional advisers, offer more webinars and hire a marketing specialist to reach area busi-
nesses about available resources. Murrill also noted the local connections with chambers of commerce, the Solano Economic Development Corp. and other business organizations. “We seek their advice on what our small businesses need most,� he said in the statement. “We want to connect with the community. We don’t want to be making any decisions in a vacuum.� In addition to one-on-one advising and webinars, the Solano Small Business Development Center has several ongoing programs for business owners, including: n Biz Rx: Developed by the center and launched in 2020, Biz Rx features two key components, both free to participants: a webinar series on market-
ing and revenue improvement opportunities, as well as a confidential one-on-one assessment of a business. n Entrepreneurs Roundtable – Vallejo: This monthly program is funded by Vallejo to help its business owners navigate the impacts of Covid-19. Business does not have to be in Vallejo. n NxLevel: The NxLevel Entrepreneurial Training Program is an 11-week comprehensive, practical business education and enhancement program for serious entrepreneurs. All participants hear from experts from multiple business disciplines and develop and present a business plan.

SF will Evacuation warning lifts for LNU burn area rename City Church opens warming 42 schools shelter for the homeless Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
Los Angeles Times
George Washington and Abraham Lincoln are no longer suitable names for public schools in San Francisco. E x plo r er s l i ke Vasco Núñez de Balboa are out too, as is Sen. Dianne Feinstein. On Tuesday, the San Francisco Unified School District Board of Education voted to change the names of 42 schools because of alleged associations with slaveholding, colonization or oppression. Those who supported the changes, which affect a third of the district’s schools, said names should reflect the values of a community. But opponents questioned why some names were included, while others said the focus should be on more substantive issues. “What I view it as is an opportunity for our schools to embody the characteristics of and feel a sense of pride in the chosen name,” said board president Gabriela López, who voted in favor of the name changes. “This in no way erases our history. It cannot, and we will not forget the past. But we can honor the work that has been done to dismantle racism and white supremacy culture.” Despite his august reputation as the president who led the Union in the Civil War and ended slavery, Lincoln is “not seen as much of a hero” by many Native Americans, according to a member of the renaming committee appointed by the school board. Feinstein, who has an elementary school named after her, made the list because of controversies decades ago, around the time she was mayor, involving the redevelopment of a building that had housed Chinese and Filipino tenants, as well as an incident involving a Confederate flag at City Hall. Through a spokesman, Feinstein, who has represented California in the U.S. Senate since 1992, declined to comment. Each school has until April 19 to submit suggestions for new names to the renaming committee, which will then offer final options to the board. Commissioner Kevine Boggess, the lone dissenting vote, said at Tuesday’s meeting that he opposed naming schools after people, especially elected officials. He proposed a reexamination of naming policies across the district. “I feel like it’s not helpful for us to make heroes out of mortal folks, and that it sets a bad precedent for us as we try to lift up values,” Boggess said. “Instead, we lift up people in ways that make it harder to hold them accountable.” Before its decision, the board heard an hour of public comment. “We’re excited to have the opportunity to give our school a name that reflects our Latinx and Indigenous school,” said a parent of a third-grader at Marshall Elementary School. “It’s a gift.” Among the San Francisco schools that will get a new name is the storied magnet school Lowell High. Its namesake, James Russell Lowell, was an abolitionist but depicted Black people unfavorably in his writings. Last week, somebody posted “racist, anti-Semitic and pornographic images and speech” on Lowell High School’s virtual bulletin board. The incident changed the mind of at least one Lowell student, who had initially questioned the renaming proposal. “Now is really the time,” he said at Tuesday’s school board meeting. “This work needs to be done.”
FAIRFIELD — The evacuation warning for the Vacaville hills burn area was lifted Thursday afternoon. The warning was issued shortly before 11 a.m. Tuesday due to what was originally a flash flood warning, downgraded later to a flash flood watch, by the National Weather Service for burn areas up and down the coast and inland areas. The storm rolled in as expected, dropping 3.01 inches of rainfall north-northwest of Vacaville and 2.17 inches west-northwest of Vacaville over the three days, the weather service reports – but no evacuation was required. The rainfall for the 12-hour period ending at 4 p.m. Thursday was about a quarter of an inch. The warning was
lifted at 4 p.m. More than 24,000 Solano County customers were without power at the peak of the storm, which knocked down power poles and trees from the north end of the county to the south. PG&E reported, as of midafternoon Thursday, there were 3,584 customers still waiting for power to be restored: 2,017 in Fairfield, 666 in Dixon, 372 in Birds Landing, 357 in Rio Vista, 149 in Suisun City, 21 in Vacaville and two in Elmira. The Solano County Office of Emergency Services is telling residents of the burn area to remain vigilant as mudslides and debris flows are still possible. “We still want people who live next to the steep terrain to keep their eyes on the hill,” said Don Ryan, manager of the county OES. “It’s also a good idea to take pic-

chance of rain Friday and Saturday is 20 to 30%. “Then we have a better chance of rain Monday and Monday night with a new system,” forecaster Karl Swanberg said. “And a chance of lingering showers on Tuesday.”

Hank Aaron’s life was one of the great American jouneys B2 Friday, January 29, 2021 SECTION B Paul Farmer . Sports Editor . 427.6926
On 2nd night of back-to-back, Warriors fall to Suns 114-93 Tribune Content Agency Stephen Curry had 27 points but not much help Thursday night in the Warriors’ 114-93 loss to the Phoenix Suns. On the second night of a back-to-back set, only Andrew Wiggins (16 points) provided Curry with scoring support as the Warriors (10-9) looked tired, settled for perime-
ter jumpers and offered little resistance to Phoenix’s offense. The Suns (9-8) made their decisive run in the third quarter, when a layup from Mikal Bridges (team-high 20 points) capped an 11-0 run to give them a 12-point lead, which they pushed to 14 by the end of the quarter. With tired legs,
Golden State shot 38.8% overall while Phoenix, without Devin Booker (hamstring) shot 46.6% from the field, including 53.6% on 2-pointers that mostly came comfortably in the paint. Twenty-four hours after a convincing win over the Minnesota Timberwolves, the Warriors had an opportunity to string together their first
three-game win streak of the season. While t hese back-to -back games can be tough, it’s still a disappointing loss against a short-handed Suns team entering the night on a three-game losing streak. These are the sort of games the Warriors need to win in order to cement their status as a playoff team in the West.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill runs for yardage against the Denver Broncos, Dec. 6, 2020.
Hill takes high road after Miller says he’d beat Chiefs star in race Tribune Content Agency K A NSA S CI T Y, Mo. — One of the biggest plays in the Buccaneers’ 31-26 win at Green Bay in the NFC Championship Game came at the end of the first half. Tampa Bay wide receiver Scotty Miller got behind the Packers secondary and hauled in a 39-yard touchdown pass from Tom Brady that extended the Buccaneers’ lead to 21-10 with 1 second left in the second quarter. Miller is a speedster and believes he is the fastest player in the NFL. At least that’s what he told Dan Patrick
on Wednesday. In fact, Patrick asked Miller if he could beat the Chiefs’ Tyreek Hill, who is widely regarded as the NFL’s fastest man. “I’m taking me, every day of the week,” Miller said. “I’ll take me over anybody. Tyreek is unbelievable, super quick, unbelievable talent. But if we’re talking about a race, I’ve got all the confidence in myself going up against anybody.” Hill, who has already won a handful of races against people who want to steal his fastest man mantle (including teammate Mecole Hardman), had no intention of getting
into a war of words ahead of Super Bowl LV. Patrick also talked with Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes on Wednesday and brought up Miller’s comment. “Oh, man, that’s an interesting take,” Mahomes said. “You’ve got to have confidence in yourself, man. I’ll give him that.” Patrick asked if Miller’s comment would fuel the Chiefs. Mahomes said his focus isn’t on the fastest player but on which team will win the Super Bowl. “I think your more motivating on yourself being in the Super Bowl,”
Mahomes said. “If you’re not ready to play for the Super Bowl, I don’t think you’re going to get ready. He is a fast dude and he’s a great receiver, but I like my guy.” So does San Francisco running back Raheem Mostert, who tweeted: “I’ve got news for him! He’s not.” Pro Football Talk noted that neither Hill nor Miller took part in the NFL’s scouting combine, but they each ran 40-yard dashes at their Pro Days. Miller’s time: 4.39 seconds. Hill’s time: 4.29 seconds.
Devan Dubnyk solid, but Sharks’ offense sputters in loss to Avalanche Tribune Content Agency Devan Dubnyk gave his team every chance to beat the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday night but didn’t get anything in terms of offensive support. Dubnyk made 28 straight saves before the Avalanche scored twice in under two minutes in the third period to hand the Sharks 3-0 loss and sweep the two game series at Ball Arena. Nazem Kadri scored at the 9:55 mark of the third period and Andre Burakovsky added an insur-
ance goal just 1:58 later as the Sharks lost consecutive games for the first time this season. San Jose is now off for three days before they are scheduled to play the Vegas Golden Knights on Monday in Glendale, Arizona. Dubnyk finished with 35 saves as the Avalanche outshot the Sharks 38-21. San Jose was shut out for the first time this season. Dubnyk helped keep the score 0-0 after two periods, making 18 saves through 40 minutes, including six on three Avalanche power plays.
Dubnyk was making his third start of the season as he entered Thursday’s game with an 0-2-0 record and an .894 save percentage. Tuesday, Dubnyk came in relief of Martin Jones, who allowed five goals in the first 25 minutes and 47 seconds before he was pulled. Dubnyk made 21 saves in relief in a 7-3 Sharks loss. Sharks coach Bob Boughner is starting to look for one of his goalies to take charge of the net, saying Tuesday that Dubnyk “is a See Sharks, Page B9

Hank Aaron’s life was one of the great American journeys Mark Bradley
THE ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION
H
is was an American story, one of the greatest American stories. He was born in Mobile, Ala., the third of eight children. His dad drove a truck and worked at the shipyard. To simulate baseball, for which his family could afford no gear, the young Henry Louis Aaron tossed up bottle caps and hit them with a stick. The home in which he grew up has since been moved from its Toulminville neighborhood and restored as a museum alongside Hank Aaron Stadium, a minor-league ballpark in Mobile. A Kentuckian named Lincoln had his log cabin. Aaron had the three-room house – later expanded to seven rooms – his dad built. Aaron’s time on this Earth reached its end Friday. His funeral was held Wednesday at Friendship Baptist Church. The service was aired on local and national television. Its eulogists included a former mayor of Atlanta, a former commissioner of baseball, plus the 39th (via remote) and Bill Clinton, the 42nd president of these United States (in person). From a town so Southern it nuzzles up to the Gulf of Mexico to one of the most famous people in this whole wide world: That was Hank Aaron’s journey, an American journey that transcended continents and hemispheres. At 9:07 p.m. April 8, 1974, he hit a 1-0 fastball off Al Downing over the fence in left-center at Atlanta Stadium. Aaron is gone at 86; that moment lives forever. The story of his life will live forever. “A candle in the dark,” the Rev. Dr. Otis Moss called Aaron, whose athletic grace made him famous, whose personal grace made him more than just a good ballplayer. It was his American story that

Truist Park in Atlanta pays tribute to Hank Aaron, the Atlanta Braves legend and beloved community member, Jan. 23. trumped a great American icon. When Japanese soldiers charged American GIs in World War II, they would yell a naughty suggestion regarding Babe Ruth. There was nothing naughty in what Aaron did to the Babe’s greatest record. A Black man from Alabama hit more home runs than the white guy born in the Pigtown section of Baltimore. Fair and square. An American record, broken the American way. In a taped eulogy, the TV announcer Bob Costas mentioned that Aaron’s lodestar was Jackie Robinson. “He skipped school to watch him speak,” Costas said, “and he climbed a tree to watch him play.” Aaron’s journey in baseball began to take flight when he played for the Indianapolis Clowns of the Negro Leagues. (He hit five homers with Indy, so that makes 760 all told.) Then to the majors and the Milwaukee Braves. Then to Atlanta, the first city in the Deep South with a big-league club. Then to 715 and beyond. There can be no separating the man from the moment, but the man’s life was more than a moment. “Respect rose to reverence,” Costas
said, regarding Aaron’s handling of the seamy subplot of the great chase. For no reason other than the color of his skin, Aaron drew hate mail. Said the Rev. Andrew Young: “He faced the evil of (his) times without fear.” For Aaron, there was life after 715, a rich and full existence. He opened businesses. He became a philanthropist. He was viewed, both inside and outside baseball, as a statesman. Clinton noted that “you couldn’t get Hank Aaron to brag about anything – except that (his endorsement in 1992) carried Georgia for me by 13,000 votes.” The record changed Aaron’s life. It didn’t change Aaron. As Braves chairman Terry McGuirk said Wednesday, “so humble and so self-effacing.” Aaron used the soft power of celebrity to better the lives of Black Americans. From Tom Morehead, his former business partner in BMW dealerships: “He wanted the industry to change its complexion.” Clinton read from Galatians and called Aaron’s 86 years “a tribute to a consistent life of doing and being.” He also said: “Hank believed in closing the racial
divide not by tearing anybody down but by building people up.” When Clinton was president, Aaron and his wife, Billye, spent the night at the White House. “It seemed like the most natural thing in the world,” Clinton said, as if the thought of an underprivileged child from Mobile being welcomed at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. happens all the time. But it happened with Hank Aaron, whose American story unfolded at a time when we needed such a story – not that we don’t need it even more today. Said Young: “Hank ran the hell out of that race.” Said Clinton: “His life was one long home run, and now he has rounded the bases.” Owing to the pandemic, “Amazing Grace” was not sung at Hank Aaron’s funeral. It was, however, played by an organist. Its third verse could describe the American journey that began in Mobile on Feb. 5, 1934, and concluded with a gathering of the high and mighty on a winter’s day in downtown Atlanta. “‘Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,” the hymn goes, “and grace will lead me home.”

First known cases of Report: Tobacco use increases risk of severe Covid-19 outcomes Covid-19 variant found in Daily Republic Staff
By the numbers
drnews@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — Tobacco use remains a serious public health threat even amid the novel coronavirus pandemic, according to a new report. In addition to tobacco-related death and disease, smoking also increases the risk of the most severe symptoms of Covid-19, the report said. This year’s “State of Tobacco Control” report from the American Lung Association grades federal and state efforts to reduce tobacco use and calls for policies that will prevent and reduce tobacco use and save lives. The report finds that California had mixed grades on its efforts to reduce and prevent tobacco use, including e-cigarettes. Tobacco use remains the nation’s leading cause of preventable death and disease, taking an estimated 480,000 lives every year, the report said. Much like Covid-19, tobacco use and secondhand smoke exposure disproportionately affect certain communities, including communities of color, LGTBQ+ Americans and people of lower income, the American Lung Association reports. The “State of Tobacco Control” aims to provide a roadmap for the federal and state policies needed to

prevent and reduce tobacco use. This year’s report finds that in 2021, California can take action to restrict the sale of flavored tobacco products in order to support public health and save lives. Children are becoming the next generation addicted to tobacco, the American Lung Association reports, with one in five teens vaping. Youth vaping and tobacco use overall is largely driven by flavored tobacco products, and the report has added
a new state grade calling for policies to end the sale of all flavored tobacco products, including menthol cigarettes, flavored e-cigarettes and flavored cigars. About 8,000 teens began vaping every day in 2019 – typically with flavored e-cigarettes, the American Lung Association reports. “In California, our high school tobacco use rate is 12.7%,” said Erica Costa, American Lung Association advocacy director, in a prepared statement. “The surge in youth vaping combined with the fact that smoking increases the chance of severe Covid-19 symptoms, make it more important than ever for California to implement the proven measures outlined in ‘State of Tobacco Control’ to prevent and reduce tobacco use.” The report finds that while California has taken significant steps to reduce tobacco use, including investing in tobacco prevention and control programs and has passed strong smoke-free air policies, elected officials should do more to save lives and ensure all California residents benefit from reductions in tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke. The report also noted menthol cigarettes remain a key vector for tobacco-related death and disease in Black communities, with nearly 85% of Black Americans who smoke using them.
Emmy winner Cicely Tyson dies at 96 Los Angeles Times When Cicely Tyson accepted an Emmy in 1974 for her starring role in “The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman,” she smiled into the camera and spoke straight to her mother: “You see, Mom,” she said, “it wasn’t really a den of iniquity after all.” Some two decades earlier, the sternly religious Theodosia Tyson had thrown her daugh-
ter out of her New York City home for getting into the “sinful” entertainment business. For two years, they didn’t see each other. Only much later did Theodosia acknowledge that her daughter, who by then was famous for the disciplined and elegant quality of her acting, had chosen superbly. Tyson worked less often than she could have because of her insistence that roles
for Black women reflect a sense of power and grace. Always coy about her age and secretive about her private life, Tyson died Thursday afternoon, her manager Larry Thompson said. He did not say where she died or if a cause is known. According to her recently released memoir “Just As I Am,” she was 87. Public records indicate she was 96. In 1972, she was nominated for an Oscar for
“Sounder,” playing a sharecropper whose husband is convicted for stealing a piece of meat. With her performance two years later in “Jane Pittman,” a story that culminates with Pittman, a 110-year-old ex-slave, defiantly drinking from an all-white water fountain, she cemented her reputation as one of America’s preeminent Black actresses.

South Carolina, officials say Tribune Content Agency
COLUMBIA, S.C. — The first two cases in the United States of a contagious new strain of Covid-19 were confirmed in South Carolina, the Department of Health and Environmental Control said Thursday. The coronavir us variant that recently emerged in South Africa was confirmed in two samples from South Carolina that were tested by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Experts said existing vaccines will work to protect from this variant, even if it isn’t known precisely how effective the vaccines are, DHEC said in a news release. While this variant is believed to spread more easily, there’s no evidence to suggest that the B.1.351 variant causes more severe illness, according to health officials. Both of the confirmed cases of the variant were found in adult South Carolina residents – one from the Lowcountry and one from the Pee Dee region, according to the release. There’s currently no known travel history and no connection between these two cases, DHEC said. “This is important information for South Carolinians to have, but it isn’t a reason for panic,” Gov. Henry McMaster said on Twitter. While the variant is believed to spread more easily, it is not currently considered to be more lethal, McMaster posted. “This is still Covid19, and we know what we can do to help mitigate its spread – wear a face cov-
ering when you’re in close proximity to others, practice social distancing when possible, and be courteous to our neighbors,” the governor tweeted. South Carolina public health officials were notified late Wednesday by the CDC of a South Carolina sample that was tested at LabCorp and determined to be the B.1.351 variant originally identified in South Africa, according to the release. Also, DHEC’s Public Health Laboratory tested samples Monday, and on Wednesday identified a separate case of the same variant, health officials said. Multiple variants of SARS-Cov-2, the virus that causes Covid-19, have emerged independently in recent months and are now circulating globally. The most notable variants are ones first identified in the United Kingdom, Brazil and South Africa. As of Thursday, all three variants have been identified in the United States. While there is no evidence that any of the variants cause more severe illness or increase the risk of mortality, they are believed to be more transmissible, meaning they can spread more quickly through the population, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In addition to differences in transmissibility, Covid-19 variants also may differ in their ability to be detected by existing diagnostic tests, their susceptibility to current treatments and their capacity for evading natural and vaccine-induced immune responses, according to the CDC.

on’t miss: “Firefly Lane” – A couple of former TV doctors – Katherine Heigl (“Grey’s Anatomy”) and Sarah Chalke (“Scrubs”) – unite in this heartfelt series about the enduring power of female friendship. Based on the novel by Kristin Hannah, it follows Tully (Heigl) and Kate (Chalke), who meet as girls in the 1970s and become inseparable besties despite possessing very disparate personalities. With a narrative that hops around in time, the story spans three decades, chronicling all their ups and downs and making for some soapy and sexy fun. (Wednesday, Netflix).
Other bets: Sunday: “The Long Song” is a moving three-part adaptation of Andrea Levy’s awardwinning novel. Set during the final days of slavery in 19th century Jamaica, it follows a young slave (Tamara Lawrance) who works on a sugarcane plantation with her demanding mistress (Hayley Atwell). Their lives dramatically change with the arrival of a charming new overseer (Jack Lowden) who wants to improve the plantation for both the slaves and the mistress. (10 p.m., PBS). Monday: Brace yourself. The first responders of “9-1-1” and “9-1-1: Lone Star” team up for a heartpounding crossover event tonight. The action begins on “9-1-1” when members of the Los Angeles crew prepare for an out-of-state mission. In the next hour, a wildfire spreads across Texas and teenagers trapped at a campground needs to be rescued. (8 and 9 p.m., Fox). Tuesday: The hotly contested “Chopped: Grudge Match” comes to a dramatic conclusion as two separate knockout rounds with the same basket determines which judge and which champion will duke it out in the title fight. At stake is $100,000 – the largest
prize ever for a “Chopped” series. (9 p.m., Food Network). Tuesday: The latest installment of “Frontline” – titled “China’s COVID Secrets” – promises to tell the “untold story” of the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic and how China responded. Chinese scientists and doctors, international disease experts and health officials reveal missed opportunities to suppress the outbreak, and lessons for the world. (10 p.m., PBS). Wednesday: The big game is quickly approaching, which means that we’ll be riveted to the ads. Hosted by Boomer Esiason and Daniela Ruah, the special “Super Bowl Greatest Commercials 2021” is pegged to an interactive countdown that has viewers voting for their favorite ad from the past 20 years. Also: a preview of what to expect this year. (8 p.m., CBS). Wednesday: On “Chicago Fire,” Firehouse 51 is called to the scene of a dangerous blaze inside a 10-story storage unit. Herrmann and Cruz find themselves trapped inside a freight elevator with all communications cut off. (9 p.m., NBC). Thursday: As the final season of “Last Man Standing” continues, Mike regrets convincing Joe (guest star Jay Leno) to use his inheritance money to buy a classic jeep when he realizes how he intends to restore it. Meanwhile, Kristin and Ryan worry that Mandy and Kyle are teaching Sarah bad language. (9:30 p.m., Fox). Friday: The beloved beagle from “Peanuts” is ready for his closeup. “The Snoopy Show” is a six-episode animated series starring Charlie Brown’s canine and his feathered friend, Woodstock, as they embark on some all-new silly adventures. (Apple TV+). Saturday: Airing from Tampa, Florida, on the night before the Super Bowl, the “10th Annual NFL Honors” special celebrates the season’s standout football stars and performances. (9 p.m., CBS).

10 Oscar-contending song tracks worthy of your playlist
DAILY REPUBLIC — Friday, January 29, 2021 B5

ven with a reduced release schedule, there’s no shortage of original songs worth considering for this year’s Oscars. Here’s a playlist of 10 of the best. Note: This is not a ranking, but a play order – it hangs together well as a sequence. Try it out on our YouTube channel. 1. “Carried Me With You” – Brandi Carlile (from “Onward”) The four-time Grammy-winning singer-songwriter kick-starts the playlist with this driving road song that responds directly to the plot of the Pixar animated film. 2. “Make You Mine This Season” – Tegan and Sara (from “Happiest Season”) Funny to think they were once known for such angsty indie pop as “You Wouldn’t Like Me” and “Walking With a Ghost,” but the Quin sisters have always had a candy-sweet streak to them. After all, they sang the Oscar-nominated “Everything Is Awesome.” Here, they have neatly wrapped a holiday-romance pop confection. And if you’re curious, the song also works as a pretty, stripped-down acoustic ballad. 3. “Rocket to the Moon” – Cathy Ang (from “Over the Moon”) The “I Want” song from Netflix’s animated musical “Over the Moon,” composed by Christopher Curtis (“Chaplin: The Musical”), Marjorie Duffield (“In a Lake of Fire”) and Helen Park (“KPOP”). 4. “Hear My Voice” – Celeste (from “The Trial of the Chicago 7”) An R&B ballad right at home in the film’s 1968 Chicago setting. 5. “(If Only You Could) Save Me” – Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross featuring Adryon de León (from “Mank”) Disguised in a period-perfect big-band setting with a range-testing vocal by De León that simply nails the style, it’s a return to the artful self-loathing that longtime Nine Inch Nails fans know and love. It even echoes a rueful line of dialogue by the film’s protagonist, but you have to be listening closely while watching the film to catch it in the song. 6. “Never Break” – John Legend (from “Giving Voice”) Another stirring anthem from the Oscar winner; its main obstacle to a nomination is how few voters will have seen the documentary for which it was written. 7. “Speak Now” – Leslie Odom Jr. (from “One Night i n Miami”) Gorgeous, topical and gently urgent, if any song on the list is

“One Night in Miami” thoughtfully ends with a performance by Sam Cooke, portrayed by Leslie Odom Jr. a favorite for a nomination, it’s this one. As a co-writer of the song, Tony winner Odom could be a double Oscar nominee: His performance in the film is also generating strong awards buzz. 8. “Free” – Charlie Puth (from “The One and Only Ivan”) You were wondering where the heck Diane Warren was on this list. Well, here she is! The 11-time nominee has three songs eligible this year and, frankly, any could get a nod. This one features a warm vocal from pop star Puth. 9. “Uh-Oh (Visualizer)” – Cyn (from “Promising Young Woman”) There were some kick-ass rock songs in movies this year – Haim turned it up to 11 for “Feel the Thunder” (no, that was not Joan Jett summoned by ancient rite, but these L.A. favorite sisters rocking up “The Croods: A New Age”) and “Sound of Metal” stars Olivia Cooke and Riz Ahmed turned in a hair-curling performance of the corrosive “Purify” in that film’s remarkable opening sequence. But “Uh-Oh” gets the nod here: Its ‘80s neon bite couldn’t be more perfect for its ferocious feature. It rocks unapologetically, and with a vengeance. 10. “Only the Young” – Taylor Swift (from “Miss Americana”) Swift has graduated from sugar-pop queen to significant cultural figure, and this unabashedly political-whilestill-catchy earworm underscores that rise. She’s boldly using her platform to say what she means; the academy has to like that. Besides, she’d be quite an addition to the ceremony. But there’s more: An extra-special bonus track! 11. “Ultraluminary” –
Phillipa Soo (from “Over the Moon”) The “Hamilton” star stakes a convincing claim to extraterrestrial diva status with this club-igniter. Why is it a bonus track? Because it’s not getting the studio launch; that trajectory belongs to the movie’s more traditional Oscar-bait “Rocket to the Moon.”
Honorable mentions “Husavik – My Home Town” – Fire Saga (Will Ferrell, Molly Sanden) (from “Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga”): The film is a send-up, but the climactic song is a straight power ballad of the type the academy has honored many times. “I’ll Be Singing” – Sinéad O’Connor (from “Wild Mountain Thyme”): A lilting ballad from the Irish firebrand. Tough to resist “When you come to my window, laddie / I’ll be singing.” It’s lovely, but is she too controversial still for the academy? “Just Sing” – Anna Kendrick, Justin Timberlake and cast (from “Trolls World Tour”): Another swing at a positivity anthem but without the Pavlov’s Boogie dance hook of the previous film’s “Can’t Stop the Feeling.” “Loyal Brave True” – Christina Aguilera (from “Mulan”): Has the makings of a contender. Though one wonders why this power ballad with Chinese-themed music for a film about a Chinese legend isn’t sung by, say, Soo. “Wear Your Crown” – Ariana DeBose, Nicole Kidman, Jo Ellen Pellman, Meryl Streep, Kerry Washington (from “The Prom”): Can the academy resist luring this collection of talent to get up and sing at the ceremony?

On February 17, 2021 at 10:30 AM, at Santa Clara Street entrance to the City Hall, 555 Santa Clara Street, Vallejo, CA 94590, Special Default Services, Inc., as the duly Appointed Trustee, under and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust Recorded on December 22, 2006 as Instrument No. 200600162100 of official records in the Office of the Recorder of Solano County, California, executed by BUCK R. CHAMBERLAIN, AN UNMARRIED MAN , as Trustor(s), in favor of CMT FEDERAL CREDIT UNION as Beneficiary, WILL SELL AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, in lawful money of the United States, all payable at the time of sale, that certain property situated in said County, California describing the land therein as: AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED IN SAID DEED OF TRUST The property heretofore described is being sold “as is”. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 1105 PARTRIDGE PLACE, SUISUN CITY, CA 94585. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $71,336.10 (Estimated).

In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call In Source Logic AT 702-659-7766 for information regarding the Special Default Services, Inc. or visit the Internet Web site address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA01000091-20. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Notice to Tenant NOTICE TO TENANT FOR FORECLOSURES AFTER JANUARY 1, 2021 You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

Newly re-signed slugger DJ LeMahieu opened his Thursday press conference by expressing sadness in no longer being able to call Tanaka a teammate. “Just wanted to mention what a great teammate he’s been,� LeMahieu said, “what an impact he’d had on the Yankees, the city.

We’re still searching for consistency throughout our lineup.� Thursday’s game was tied 0-0 after the first period as the Sharks missed an opportunity to take an early lead, going 0-for-3 on the power play with two shots on goal. The Sharks entered Thursday on an 1-for-19 skid with the man advantage, which started with their Jan. 20 game with the St. Louis Blues. Avalanche center Pierre-Edouard Bellemare was injured in the first period. Near the
Sharks’ blue line Roughly 30 minutes before the start of their game with the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday, the Sharks, through a team spokesman, announced that Sasha Chmelevski would not be playing because of a “roster issue with the taxi squad.� Sharks coach Bob Boughner said Thursday morning that Chmelevski, who had been on the taxi squad since the start of the season, would be in the lineup against the Avalanche and make his NHL debut. Chmelevski, 21, was going to center the Sharks’ fourth line with Patrick Marleau and Stefan Noesen as his wingers. I n s t e ad , w it h Chmelevski out, Marcus Sorensen, who was supposed to be a healthy scratch, drew back into Thursday’s lineup and played on the line with Marleau and Noesen.
