Biden EO targets ‘assault’ on voting

WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH

Going back to her roots

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden on Sunday issued an executive order mandating federal departments and agencies increase efforts to help Americans register to vote, as the White House looks for ways to offset Republican efforts to toughen voting standards. The executive action taken Sunday directs federal facilities to accept requests from states – which run their own voter processes – to become registration sites, and calls for a modernization of the Vote.gov website. The effort aims “to make it easier for eligible voters to register to vote, and improve access to voting,” Biden said in taped remarks to the annual See Voting, Page A8

Armijo grad returns as Tolenas’ winemaker

Amy Maginnis-Honey

She returned to Suisun Valley six years ago and now serves as lead winemaker at Tolenas Winery. The house she grew up in – her parents are Steve and Linda Tenbrink – sits next to the winery. A Grape Collective study in 2011 found only 10% of California wineries had a woman who held the lead position. Another study last year found a modest increase to 14%. The Suisun Valley had changed upon Howard's return.

AMAGINNIS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

SUISUN VALLEY — Lisa Howard wanted to run away as fast and as far as she could after finishing up at Armijo High School. She went to Cal Poly and earned an engineering degree. She ended up in Arizona building large irrigation systems for farmers. It was then her husband told her she was a "fish out of water."

There was a strategic plan in place and wine grapes had replaced the stone fruit. Under the guidance of her parents, Howard and her husband, Cliff Howard, began to make wine, making them the second generation to do so. "Growing up surrounded by farmland, we knew the hardship and sacrifice that cultivating grapes required," they share on the winery's website. "Nevertheless, we felt driven to abandon the safety of our

careers for a chance to cultivate our shared passion here, among the hills of the Suisun Valley. Just like Lisa, our three kids are learning the land as they grow alongside the grapes in the Tolenas vineyards." There are many women winemakers, Howard said. Not all earn the honor of being the lead winemaker, she said. Female winemakers can pick up more flavors and See Roots, Page A8

Chicken Yoga, where the chickens wear diapers Tribune Content Agency TAMPA, Fla. — For decades, the city of Tampa has officially considered Ybor City to be a bird sanctuary because of its history of chickens clucking around the brick streets. And Ybor is unofficially considered one of Tampa’s more eccentric communities. So, of course Ybor now offers Chicken Yoga, a unique take on the animal yoga craze that has predominately centered around goats but has included creatures such as dogs, cats and even sloths. “I’m not going to lie, I was nervous,” said Mackenzie Fox, director of lifestyle at Ybor’s Hotel Haya, where the inaugural event was held and hosted by Union Three Studio. “But it went really well. It was a unique experience that perfectly embodies Ybor.” The combination of animal therapy and yoga is said to be relaxing. During the more mainstream goat yoga, the creatures walk on attendees’ backs and allow cuddles. The chickens did neither, Fox said, but were friendly. “Frankenstein was def-

They were definitely a lot more social than I thought they were going to be.” The participating birds are “domesticated,” Fox said. They live in the backyard of the Ybor Misfits Microsanctuary that cares for domesticated chickens abandoned in Ybor. The chickens and rooster were bathed before the event and diapered to prevent a mess. “We get the diapers from Etsy and they wrap

over the wings and under the legs for a perfect fit,” said Dylan Breese, who runs the sanctuary and whose Ybor Chickens Society seeks to bring unity between the fowl and Ybor residents and businesses. “Once snapped over the back, they’re ready for some crescent lunges and warrior poses.” Chickens date to Ybor’s inception in the late 1800s as a community built by immigrants primarily from Cuba, Spain and Italy. Residents throughout Ybor kept the birds for food. The East Ybor neighborhood boasted farms. Some believe that descendants of the original chickens walk the streets.

recovered and then said, “It is now my pleasure to introduce Little Jimi Prince!” Mario bounded out from behind the makeshift curtain to rapturous applause, sat at his keyboard, cracked his knuckles animatedly to some chuckles, then exploded into a raucous version of “Tutti Frutti” that had the crowd on its feet and Tonya agape. He ripped through “Good Golly Miss Molly,” “Ready Teddy,” “Long Tall Sally,” “Keep A Knockin’ ’” and more. The gold jacket he wore helped sell the illusion. While the band, all church members, played an extended instrumental version of “The Girl Can’t Help It,” Mario ducked behind the curtain and emerged seconds later with a replica of the outfit Jimi wore at Woodstock, complete with a headband. Mario had no Hendrix afro anymore but he had seen a Jimi impersonator in the early ’80s named Randy Hansen who’d pulled it off and he was a righthanded white dude. Fro-less Mario was a southpaw and African American and like Hansen, he could play. He picked up his Stratocaster and launched into the Star-Spangled Banner and followed it up with note-perfect versions of “Foxey Lady,” “All Along The Watchtower,” Hey Joe” and others. At the end

of “Fire” he even did his best reproduction of Jimi burning his guitar at Monterey Pop in 1967, although he switched out his real Strat for a cheap broken replica he’d got on Facebook Marketplace for $10. “Purple Haze” closed out the set and the band extended the end while Mario switched to his Prince outfit and then they went right into “Let’s Go Crazy.” During “Kiss,” Mario would punctuate the oneword chorus with an actual kiss with Clarissa that brought the house down. Mario and the band pumped out the hits like “When Doves Cry” “Take Me With U” and “Little Red Corvette” as well as album cuts like “D.M.S.R.” and “Housequake.” Tonya wheeled Clarissa to the front facing the crowd and they led everyone in waving sparklers during the finale, “Purple Rain.” The story about the husband performing his old tribute act for his dying wife and that Prince had once threatened to sue him made local, regional and then national news. It all came full circle when Prince’s estate made an anonymous donation to Project Hope. Reach Fairfield writer Tony Wade at toeknee weighed@gmail.com.

At 82, Old Man Steve cracks up the internet on TikTok Tribune Content Agency DALLAS — Steve Austin, who often explains what an app is to his neighbors in his senior apartment community, has gained a robust social media following by sharing a nd goofy antics and wearing hats. As Old Man Steve on TikTok, @ omsteve, the 82-year-old retired Richland Hills businessman and bachelor has 1.4 million followers and more than 26 million likes on his self-produced short videos. Perhaps no one is more surprised by his success than him. Not only has his foray into social media stardom connected him with fans all over the world, but it has also helped him make the most of a year of quarantine. Q: You’ve been on TikTok since late 2019. How did you get started? A: I had a channel on YouTube for 12 years. I started doing an app called Vine and got a little bit of a following on there. Then my nephew told me, “Uncle Steve, you need to check out TikTok.” I started doing “Cooking With Steve,” where I’d just make a ham sandwich or a bowl of cereal on TikTok. It took off. I started getting followers, and it grew daily. I was flabbergasted at how fast it grew. Now I do a lot of different things. I started doing “Dancing with Steve.” On Saturdays, I do a magic trick. I just mess it up. I really can’t do a magic trick. Most of my success was last year. I think people were in quarantine and had a lot of time on their hands and were on the internet a lot. Q: For readers who don’t know, what is TikTok? A: I get that question all the time from

Pandemic is crushing sleep; here are 5 tips to help you get better shut-eye at night Tribune Content Agency This pandemic has impacted everything, so it is no surprise that it also has interrupted our sleep. We’re worried about everyone in our lives, we’re drinking too much alcohol and coffee, and even when we are in bed, we often are not experiencing good quality sleep. Those are just a few reasons that psychologist Michael Breus notes it makes perfect sense people are facing sleep issues. Studies have revealed insomnia and other sleep issues during the pandemic. “We’re just not able to handle this level of stress, and of course it’s coming out in our sleep,” Breus said. Most adults need 7 to 8 hours of quality sleep each night, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. And remember that is referring to quality, not just quantity. Many people might be feeling they need more sleep, even if they are getting what would have been considered a regular amount a year ago. That’s because amid pandemic stressors, people are getting light and fragmented sleep, said Breus, author of “Good Night: The Sleep Doctor’s 4-Week Program to Better Sleep and Better Health.”

Most adults need 7 to 8 hours of quality sleep each night, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. The good news is, Breus says it’s the perfect time to reassess sleeping patterns and try to get better shuteye. We already know to limit screen time before bed and to stick to a routine. Here are some more tips.

Wake up at the same time every day For many people, working at home has meant that Chicagoans are sleeping later and later, rolling out of bed and walking to the home office in a baseball hat and sweats. But the importance of keeping a routine and schedule is even more important now, Breus said. “We have an irregular sleep schedule going on because of the pandemic,” he said. “Now would be the perfect time to have a good sleep

schedule.” Wake up at the same time even on weekends, he added.

Set a cutoff for caffeine and booze We know that caffeine and alcohol can impact sleep. Unfortunately, with many people at home throughout the day, it’s easier to keep returning to the kitchen coffee pot more and more, or start happy hour earlier and earlier. People might think alcohol helps them sleep, Breus said, but, “what it’s really doing is anesthetizing,” he said. “I usually say there’s a really big difference between going to sleep and passing out.” He suggests quitting caffeine by 2 p.m., and finishing See Sleep, Page A4

Steve Austin, a.k.a. Old Man Steve on TikTok, sets up his phone to make a video for 1.4 million followers.

Steve From Page A3 across as a regular guy having a good time. I’m told I seem honest and trustworthy. Also, everything I do is G-rated. I don’t do any off-color stuff. That’s just not me. Many of my fans are young people. They tell me they want me to be their grandpa. Or I remind them of their grandpa. Some of their parents are watching, too. I’m getting a big cross section of ages. I’m 82 years old. I live by myself in a senior apartment complex. All my neighbors are old. I don’t go out much. I have all my groceries delivered. I’m trying to stay safe. I feel like we should all do that. I encourage that with my fans in the videos. I say, “Put your mask on if you go out. Stay safe.” I try to be positive. The response I get shows me that my fans like that. I have a P.O. box and I get cards and mail from fans. Fans write to me from Brazil, Ireland, India. Yesterday, I got three gifts for Christmas that just arrived. Fans send me hats, which is a lot of fun and I appreciate it. Q: What’s with the hats? A: I always wear a hat in my videos. I like the way it looks. It just became my trademark. Now I have over 100 hats in different colors, sizes and shapes. Q: How do you pick your music? A: TikTok has music that you can pick from, and you can use your own. I don’t even know

Sleep From Page A3 your last drink at least three hours before bed. So think about a drink or two between 5 and 7 p.m., with plenty of water, and going to bed at 10 p.m.

Get out for exercise Exercise is consistently linked to better sleep. Try to exercise at least four hours before bed, Breus suggests. “The more you exercise, the higher your quality of sleep,” he said. “You don’t have to run a marathon.” For example, in the National Sleep Foundation’s 2013 report on sleep, about 56% of people who did not exercise said they had very good or fairly good sleep; for people who vigorously exercised, 83% reported good sleep, and even 76% of light exercisers reported good sleep.

the artists. The names mean nothing to me. I just pick music that has a good beat. Q: How often do you generally post? A: I try to post two to four times a day. That way it keeps you out there to the public. Your popularity has led to some appearances elsewhere. Tell us about that. I get calls almost every day from someone asking me to do stuff. After my numbers started going up, I was on the Kelly Clarkson Show and on the Rachael Ray cooking show. I was interviewed on Australian TV. The World Health Organization called me from Switzerland. They wanted to do a promo thing about not smoking and wanted me to be part of that. It’s amazing to me, the power of the internet. Q: Do you have any background in performing? A: After I retired from the family business, I worked almost 20 years in the box office for the Dallas Summer Musicals. I did some talent shows when I was a kid and in high school. The State Fair of Texas had the Pepsi Stage talent shows. I came in second place one year when I did a record pantomime. Now it’s called lip syncing. Until I started doing TikTok, I’d forgotten all about that! I’m named after my grandfather, who was an entertainer in Dallas. My mother said that I was just like him. He went by Barnyard Steve and did animal impersonations on a kiddie show on the radio. He had a following in the late 1920s and early 1930s. I loved my grandpa. When I was young, I followed him It’s something she’s studied since she herself was a mom of small children, realizing loss of sleep was sapping her productivity. She encourages a technology-free bedroom, or cutting out electronics at least an hour before bedtime. Make sure the temperature is between 65 and 70 degrees. And for your bed, think about dressing it the same way you would dress at that temperature. She suggests a sheet, a thin blanket and comforter or duvet system. “It works just like seasonal dressing here in Chicago – the right layers will keep you comfortable,” she said. Pillow and mattress work together; check your alignment. If you sleep on your side, your spine should be in a straight line, parallel to the mattress. If you sleep on your back, you should feel supported throughout the spine’s curve, no lower-back gap.

Have a plan to get back to sleep Many people might wake up in the middle of the night and ruminate, finding it hard to get back to sleep. Have a plan so that this is not a scary or frus-

(Austin has posted photos and stories about his grandfather on Pinterest: pinterest.com/ oldmansteve80/barnyardsteve-aka-uncle-hiram) Q: Do you make any money on this? A: As I understand it, TikTok pays you according to how many people watch your videos. Last month I got a check for $247, that’s the highest it’s been. I live on a fixed income so that’s really nice. In one video I mentioned my back hurt and I needed to get a new mattress. A week later, I got an email from a mattress company that said that my fans had written to them. If I would do a promotion video, they would send me a mattress. Which they did. So I got a free mattress. It’s unbelievable that I became a celebrity at the age of 82. Doing TikTok trating time. First, realize even being in bed can be rejuvenating, whether you sleep or not. Second, don’t look at the clock. “Everybody does,” Breus said. “They instantly do the mental math.” Instead, Breus says to flip the script to lessen pressure and remove anxiety. “Say, this is awesome. It’s 2:37 in the morning, I have to get up at 6:30, I’ve got four more hours. Who knows, maybe I’ll get some more sleep. I know if I lie here, I’m still going to get some level of rejuvenation. And let’s be honest, I’ve had no sleep before, and I’ve made it through my day.”

T

he problems faced by new U.S. President Joe Biden would be formidable for anyone. There’s the political schism that won’t be cured by optimistic calls for unity. Then there’s the herculean challenge of stopping Covid-19 from killing too many more people. High up on his list, and sooner rather than later, will be dealing with the consequences of the biggest financial bubble in U.S. history. Why the biggest? Because it encompasses not just stocks but pretty much every other financial asset, too. And for that, you may thank the Federal Reserve. The fallout from a Fed that has encouraged investors into buying horribly overpriced assets will be every bit as difficult as coming off the gold standard in the early 1970s or tackling runaway inflation in the early 1980s. It will require an act of political will and a complete rethink of monetary policy. Having Janet Yellen, a former Fed chairwoman, as Treasury Secretary is unlikely to help. She was among a long line of Fed bosses, from Alan Greenspan on, who reacted to each crisis by slashing interest rates and, over the past decade or so, massively expanding the Fed’s balance sheet. By coming to the rescue every time in the manner it did, the Federal Reserve created the conditions for the current bubble – and the next crisis. That game is now over. Little noticed amid the copious commentary on the GameStop Corp. jollity was a data release showing the Fed’s preferred measure of consumer inflation is going up. Over the past 12 months, core personal consumption expenditure rose 1.5%, higher than the 1.3% expected. Admittedly this is still low, but it’s likely to go up a lot further. The Fed is monetizing much of the government deficit; the monster amount of money that it created is finding its way out of the banking system; there are severe supply constraints in both manufacturing and services; and Asia is on fire. Sean Wolpert, a former colleague of mine at Rubicon Fund Management, has compared the price pressures in two ISM surveys (manufacturing and non-manufacturing) with subsequent CPI. Even without a sharp recovery in demand, inflation is already rising and these two surveys are a very good predictor of where it will go next. Rapidly rising inflation will eventually force the Fed to rein in its lax monetary policy. But it will move, by its own admission, very slowly; on my interpretation much too slowly. It’s a racing certainty that markets will be spooked much earlier than the central bank. Central bankers the world over seem to be the only people who don’t see signs of wild excess wherever they look. Most investments are almost certainly going to lose money over the next few years. On the measures that matter – you know, the ones that actually predict returns – the U.S. stock market is as expensive as it was in 1929, 2001 and the lead up to the Global Financial Crisis. All stock-market bubbles go hand in hand with rapid credit growth and this latest one is no exception. Non-financial corporate debt has been on a tear these few years past, relative to gross domestic product. Part of the reason last year, of course, was the rapid fall in GDP, although the Fed also played its part by buying billions of dollars of corporate debt. At least when stock markets went south in those earlier periods, investors could plonk their money in government debt because they offered yields. In the early 1990s, lest we forget, Japanese 10-year yields briefly touched 8%. They don’t have quaint things like interest rates in Europe or Japan anymore, thanks to their respective central banks. The 1.1% available on 10-year U.S. Treasuries looks breathtakingly meager, too. It’s probably an even worse idea for investors to buy corporate debt, especially lower-rated issuance. Spreads on company debt over government bonds are also desperately low, meaning corporate debt yields are at record lows. Yields on borrowers rated CCC or less – the lowest ranks of junk before default – have never been lower. If investors are about to face a crisis, so too is the White House and the Fed. It wouldn’t take much movement from the Fed to upset the markets, hence its desire to move carefully. On the other hand, doing nothing is also problematic from a political perspective. Inflation is regressive: It hurts poor people far more than rich ones. That doesn’t look like a model of social justice. Reasonable people can disagree, but I think we’ll find out how much of a hole the Fed has dug for itself, markets and the U.S. in the next three months.

halt any efforts to rejoin the 2015 nuclear deal so long as Iran’s proxies are running wild. While it’s true that Biden and his top advisers see the 2015 deal as a way to forward U.S. interests by temporarily limiting Iran’s enrichment of uranium, Iran also has an interest in ending the secondary sanctions that the U.S. re-imposed in 2018. Biden has more leverage, at the moment, than Iran. An even better option for Biden would be to adopt a version of his predecessor’s policy toward Iranian proxies. Former President Donald Trump’s administration did not bother with distinctions among the offshoots, factions and militias that Iran supported. If a militia attacked U.S. forces in Iraq, the U.S. attacked the militia in response. Trump was also willing to escalate to deter, as he did a little more than a year ago after militias nearly overran the U.S. embassy in Baghdad. Trump authorized the strikes that killed Soleimani and a top militia leader, Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis. Biden is not Trump, of course. But if he wants to calm tensions in the region, he must convince Iran and its proxies that he, too, is willing to escalate and respond to their provocations. If Iran concludes that it can obtain sanctions relief while sowing further chaos, then Biden will be returning the Middle East to a status quo of dangerous instability.

Hulu honors ’90s era TV Tribune Content Agency What’s old seems to always be new in the emulative television business as the boom of reboot, remakes and revivals continues. But when it comes to the 1990s, Hulu is celebrating the era with a new documentary about the pop culture era – and a few original series of the day. Along with the March 12 release of “Punky Brewster” actress Soleil Moon Frye’s “Kid 90” documentary, which showcases the lives of the actress and her famous friends during the decade, the Disney-owned streaming platform is rolling out full seasons of throwback shows such as “Blossom,” “Felicity” and “My SoCalled Life.” The Mayim Bialik-led sitcom “Blossom” arrives Monday to kick off what the company is referring

to as “90s Week.” The more adult-leaning drama “Felicity,” starring Keri Russell and Scott Speedman will be made available for streaming on Tuesday. Created by J.J. Abrams, the New Yorkbased drama centered on the titular character’s college years at the fictional University of New York. “Felicity” ran for four seasons from 1998 to 2002 on The WB, which is now The CW. Although “My SoCalled Life” only aired for one season (from 1994 to 1995), the teen drama series still has attracted a cultlike following. The show, which arrives on Hulu on Thursday, brought Claire Danes to fame, as it focused on the life of her character and friends at the fictional Liberty High School in suburban Pittsburgh.

Center with Solano ties joins AmeriCorps celebration Daily Republic Staff

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The Center for Volunteer & Nonprofit Leadership is joining thousands of local leaders nationwide this week to highlight and celebrate the importance of national service in tackling local problems during AmeriCorps Appreciation Week. The celebration, which started Sunday and continues through Saturday, also honors the contributions and support of thousands of local organizations that make AmeriCorps programs possible. That includes 4,000 AmeriCorps members in California who help a small army of program volunteers. The Center for Volunteer & Nonprofit Leadership currently hosts five AmeriCorps members; three AmeriCorps Volunteer

Infrastructure Project members and two AmeriCorps VISTAS, who were recruited by California volunteers. Two are based in Solano County: Laura Galang serves with the VIP program and Melinda Earp volunteers through VISTA. The others are based in the other three counties served by the Bay Area center: Napa, Sonoma and Marin. The VIP program focuses on building sustainable volunteer programs at nonprofit organizations that meet critical needs, the Center for Volunteer & Nonprofit Leadership reports. AmeriCorps VISTAS focus on alleviating poverty, helping local organizations expand their capacity to make change. Both VIPs and VISTAS also support disaster preparedness, response and recovery efforts in all four counties. AmeriCorps members across

the state plan to host collaborative service projects this week that range from hosting a national service networking and resource convention, providing healthy food and futures for youth, and promoting of literacy and reading comprehension. AmeriCorps engages more than 270,000 Americans each year in what the organization describes as sustained, resultsdriven service through its AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps Seniors programs. Members and volunteers help communities affected by Covid19, ensure students stay on track to graduate, combat hunger and homelessness, respond to natural disasters, fight the opioid epidemic, help seniors live independently, support veterans and military families, and further other organizational goals. “National service is a vital resource,” Linda Jacobs, CEO

at the Center for Volunteer & Nonprofit Leadership, said in a prepared statement. “AmeriCorps members make our counties better places to live. I am grateful for the dedication and sacrifice of these exceptional citizens, who are helping make our communities safer, stronger and healthier.” The Center for Volunteer & Nonprofit Leadership, which has served local communities for five decades, has managed the Volunteer Infrastructure Project AmeriCorps Program in the Bay Area since 2017, the center reports. Nonprofits that have strong volunteer programs can serve more clients and tackle more of our communities’ challenges. The center recruits and matches VIP fellows, who join a nonprofit team and help build systems that recruit, train, support, manage and measure

the success of volunteers. “This AmeriCorps Week, join us as we celebrate the impact AmeriCorps programs have in our communities and offer thanks to each and every one for volunteering to serve others,” Elaine Tokolahi, the Bay Area center’s director of volunteer services, said in the statement. The Center for Volunteer & Nonprofit Leadership has published an AmeriCorps Appreciation Week Toolkit at cvnl.org/ blog.

Goodwill: Adjusting Roots: Winemaker hits books for edge From Page One sales to operate, according to the statement. At the heart of the organization are the training, employment placement services and support services, such as child care, transportation and financial literacy that are provided to community members at no cost. Goodwill provides those services to people who face challenges to finding employment, including people with disabilities, people affected by the criminal justice system, people who are unemployed or underemployed, veterans and

military families, older workers and young adults, according to the statement. “Goodwill’s mission is to turn the revenue from the sale of donations from the community into jobs for some of the region’s most vulnerable populations so that they may reach their full potential,” the nonprofit reports in the statement. “But because our stores have been shut down for most of the last year due to the pandemic, it has created a tremendous fiscal challenge and we must make a challenging business decision in order to sustain mission services.”

Virtual: Zoom set From Page One in the Vallejo City School District, Benicia school board trustee and president and chief executive officer of the Chocolate Daisy Unsilenced nonprofit; and Susan Rotchy, executive director of Independent Living Resources of Solano and Contra Counties, will be featured. The group will be interviewed by Elizabeth Bell, teen services librarian for Solano County Library Services, and Rochelle Sherlock, a founding member and past chairwoman of the Solano Commission for Women and Girls. The presentation on the Zoom teleconference platform is scheduled for

4 to 5:30 p.m. To attend, go to https:// us02web.zoom.us/j/82819 586571?pwd=NERGdkJu V3VNRitxV250WDgza0s 2UT09. Passcode: 951045. Girls are encouraged at 3:30 p.m. Friday to participate in a Zoom activity sponsored by the Solano library and led by Solano Commission for Women and Girls member Sakina Ali. Interested girls should register at solanolibrary. com, then pick up a journal craft kit at the Fairfield Civic Center Library, 1150 Kentucky St., before joining the event.

It falls slightly below the average level with a 29th place ranking for the share of women in poverty. The lower the number, the better. WalletHub looks at several metrics when comparing and ranking the 50 states and the District of Columbia. “In 2021, women in some parts of America still get the short end of the stick – even as they outnum-

ber men in most states,” according to the report. “For instance, women represent nearly two-thirds of all minimum-wage workers in the U.S. Their political representation also suffers, as women make up 51% of the U.S. population but only 24% of the U.S. Senate and 27.1% of the House of Representatives,” according to the report. “The Covid-19 pandemic has been especially harmful financially for women, too, as they have lost their jobs at greater rates than men,” according to the report.

nuances in wine, she said. "Women have a lot of intuition," Howard said. "That can be a strength. Listening to your intuition can be a gift." Visitors to the winery often ask about the lead winemaker. Some are taken aback when Howard tells them she serves in that capacity. There are physical challenges, too. "I can't pick up a full keg very easily," Howard said. "I can but I'd hurt." A lot of the tools she needs are fitted for men in the business, she said. She wasn't afraid to "pick the brain" of winemakers she admired. And, she is an avid reader of wine books. "I have not picked up a fiction book in years," she said. Howard is quick to note her father, her brother, Daryl Tenbrink, and Rick Lanza of Wooden Valley Winery have also played key roles in her career. The mother of three finds serving her wines and telling the stories behind each is almost as much fun as making them. Howard is fully committed to the Suisun Valley, she said.

Officer: Protests planned ahead of trial From Page A1 Several hundred people supporting the conviction of former Officer Derek Chauvin on murder charges gathered across the Mississippi River on Saturday in front of the governor’s mansion in St. Paul, chanting, “Prosecute the police!” More protests were planned Sunday and Monday outside the courthouse where the case will be heard in downtown Minneapolis, now lined with protective concrete barriers and razor wire. The criminal prosecution of Chauvin, due to be broadcast live on Court TV, is likely to be among the most closely watched in U.S. history.

Floyd’s death was captured on video by a bystander and sparked months of protests against police brutality in Minneapolis and across the country. The court proceedings are due to begin Monday,

but could be delayed after an appellate court ruling Friday on the murder charges brought against Chauvin, 44, who served 19 years on the police force and now faces up to four decades in prison. City officials have prepared for the trial with stepped-up secu-

rity and community outreach intended to prevent a repeat of last year’s unrest, in which police responded forcefully to protest marches. Police enforced a curfew and injured protesters and reporters. Destruction ensued, with an estimated 1,500 buildings damaged or destroyed. The mayhem sparked calls for restructuring or defunding local police forces in major cities across the nation. Last week, the city’s mayor, police chief and City Council held briefings outlining the public safety response they’ve been developing since last summer, modeled on security provided for the NCAA tournament in 2019, Super Bowl in 2018 and following the 1992 trial of the Los Angeles police officers who beat motorist Rodney King.

Voting: Biden order aims to ease access From Page A1

Martin and Coretta Scott King Unity Breakfast. Biden’s push comes amid heated debate over voter access, inflamed by a 2020 election that saw a record number of ballots cast, as well as a sizable uptick in mail-in voting in response to the coronavirus pandemic. Donald President

Trump, defeated by Biden in November, repeatedly blamed his loss, without evidence, on widespread fraud, an effort to cast doubt on the electoral system that culminated in the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Since then, GOP lawmakers have promoted state-level efforts to make registration requirements more stringent, and to

reduce mail-in and early voting. In a Feb. 28 speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference, his first since leaving the White House, Trump said “we need one election day, not 45,” and derided the “insanity” of mail-in voting. Democrats have argued that such measures are intended to disenfranchise poor and minority

voters who are less likely to have additional documentation – such as drivers licenses – or be able to take off work to vote on Election Day itself. Biden said an “allout assault on the right to vote” is happening now” with more than 250 bills introduced in state legislatures across 43 states to “make it harder for Americans to vote.”

Stephen Curry (30) of Team LeBron attempts a threepoint basket against Team Durant during the second

half in the 70th NBA All-Star Game at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, Sunday.

Oh, ‘trey’ bien

Curry’s clutch shot wins 3-point contest Los Angeles Times The All-Star threepoint contest was on the line when Golden State’s Stephen Curry, considered by many the best three-point shooter in NBA history, picked up his last ball from a rack in the corner. Curry gripped the red, white and blue “moneyball,” needing it to go in to beat Utah’s Mike Conley, who was on the sideline hugging Jazz teammate Donovan Mitchell in anticipation. As the ball floated through the air, Curry kept his right arm

extended, his eyes glued on the flight of the ball as it settled through the net for the title. Curry kept his hand in the air a little longer, did a pirouette and smiled, his 28 points one better than Conley. After capturing the three-point contest for the second time – the first was in 2015 – Curry was asked what was on his mind before he took the winning shot. “It kind of went blank,” Curry said on TNT’s broadcast. “I could hear, whatever crowd is in here, I could hear the temperature rise a little bit. I just

knew I had to knock it down. It was a fun ride.” Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum finished third with 17 points in the championship round. Boston’s Jalen Brown (17), Chicago’s Zach LaVine (22) and Utah’s Mitchell (22) didn’t get past the first round of the competition that took place before the All-Star game in Atlanta. Because of the pandemic, the game and the night’s other events, which usually are spread out over a fan-filled weekend of celebration, were condensed into a single night that was part exhibition and part platform to support

historically Black colleges and universities and Covid-19 equity efforts. The NBA and players union pledged $2.5 million toward HBCUs and hoped to focus attention and resources on virus relief for the most vulnerable communities. While not all players were enthusiastic about the All-Star event, Curry called the three-point contest “an awesome competition. I’m just so glad I got it done.” Curry racked up 31 points in the first round, missing only six shots. See Curry, Page B8

Report: Griffin to join Brooklyn Tribune Content Agency They said the Warriors were unfair and broke basketball when Golden State set a new record with 73 wins in a season, then signed superstar forward and league MVP Kevin Durant the ensuing summer. Wait ‘til “they” get a load of this. The Nets have asked the Warriors to hold their drink, and their pursuit of all six Infinity Stones continues with their latest signing. Blake Griffin and the Nets have agreed to a deal, according to ESPN, which means they’ve successfully pried

the six-time All-Star from a Detroit franchise that agreed to buy out the remaining year-andchange of his contract. When the signing is made official, the Nets can run out a lineup that features Griffin, Kevin Durant, James Harden, Kyrie Irving and DeAndre Jordan, easily one of the most talented five-man units this league will have seen in recent history. It was the league’s worst-kept secret: In Brooklyn, the rich get richer and a team with championship aspirations just added another talented playmaker desperate to

get out of his previous situation. Nets star James Harden was asked about the idea of adding another All-Star caliber player to the fold during Sunday’s NBA All-Star 2021 media availability. “We haven’t made that move yet, we haven’t acquired anybody yet, so I can answer that later if it happens, but we all know how exciting Blake Griffin is and the player he is,” Harden said. Griffin recently negotiated a contract buyout with the Detroit Pistons and was set to become a free agent after clearing waivers at 5 p.m. on Sunday. Mul-

tiple reports suggested Griffin, 31, was interested in joining the Nets, a team loaded with superstars in his age range, including Harden, Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. The Nets also employ DeAndre Jordan, Griffin’s ex-Lob City partner for a decade during their time together in Los Angeles with the Clippers. Griffin, after a decade as one of the league’s premier high-flying forwards, wants to win a championship at this stage of his career, according to reports. And Nets GM Sean Marks has mainSee Griffin, Page B8

GOODYEAR, Ariz. — In conversations about the Giants’ top prospects, the focus almost always turns to whether shortstop Marco Luciano or catcher Joey Bart is No. 1. For the most part, outfielder Heliot Ramos is No. 3, not considered the very best but certainly good enough to move up and become at least as impactful as the others. All three played in Sunday’s Giants-Reds exhibition at Goodyear Ballpark, and Ramos clearly stood above the rest. He blasted two home runs, a shot off lefty Sean Doolittle and another to the opposite field off another lefty, Reiver Sanmartin. Bart had a nice day, too, coming off the bench to replace Curt Casali and getting two hits, including a homer, making him 5-for-8 in the exhibition season. He also stole a base. Luciano, a 19-year-old who started 0-for-7 with six strikeouts, got his first hit, an infield single. After the Giants’ 9-4 win over the Reds, Ramos said he wants to prove to the Giants he should be in the majors sooner rather than later: “Of course. Every day. I go out to prove myself.” Which manager Gabe

Kapler appreciates. “That drive and determination allows him to perform like he did today,” Kapler said. “Demonstrating power to all fields, showing off a great arm, running the bases, speed-power combination. So we’re really glad Ramos is hungry.” Ramos, known for his pop, arm and overall athletic ability, made a mighty throw from deep left field, a perfect one-hopper to the plate, almost gunning down Eugenio Suarez, who scored on a sacrifice fly. In the middle innings, Ramos moved from left to center — his natural position — and found himself in a scary moment when both he and right fielder Luis Basabe went for a routine fly, Ramos tumbling over Basabe, the ball flipping out of his glove. Both called for the ball, but Basabe should have deferred to the center fielder. In any event, both returned to their positions, a relief to the Giants’ brass. On another routine fly, Ramos moved in a few steps, slipped and dropped the ball. He’s 21 and has played 25 games above Class A, so there’s still time to fine-tune his game before his call to the big leagues.

A’s Lowrie nears debut San Francisco Chronicle MESA, Ariz. — Second baseman Jed Lowrie has yet to appear in a Cactus League game but could be nearing his spring debut. Lowrie was scheduled to run bases at the A’s complex Sunday, which manager Bob Melvin said is “kind of the last hurdle for him” in returning from October knee surgery. If Lowrie clears that hurdle, he could play in a game as early as Tuesday. “Hopefully that’s the case,” Melvin said. Lowrie is in Oakland’s camp on a minor-league deal trying to earn a roster spot after two injury-marred years with the Mets. He has seven major-league at-bats in the past two seasons and had surgery for a partial

tear of the posterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, he said. On the health front, catcher Sean Murphy is “moving along nicely” returning to baseball activity after surgery for a collapsed lung several weeks before spring training. Melvin said that Murphy will hit soft toss Sunday and is catching bullpens, but did not offer a timetable for when Murphy might appear in games. Outfielder Ka’ai Tom, who has an oblique injury, also does not have a target date for playing in games. Melvin said the A’s are hopeful that Tom, a Rule 5 pick who must be offered back to Cleveland if he doesn’t make the roster, will be able to play “half a camp” of games.

Buccaneers, Brady working on contract extension Tribune Content Agency TAMPA, Fla. – If Tom Brady fulfills his desire to play in the NFL until he is at least 45, it will be with the Bucs. One month after winning his seventh Super Bowl, Brady and the Bucs are working on a contract extension, as expected. It could be done sometime this week, but the two sides are believed to have a lot of work remaining because of the complexity of lowering Brady’s $28.4 million cap

hit for 2021. Brady has one more year left on a two-year, $50 million contract he signed with Tampa Bay last March. However, his salary cap value increased by $3.4 million. That’s the amount of bonuses Brady earned for reaching Super Bowl 55 and winning it, so it was added to his cap value as likely to be earned incentives. According to Overthecap.com, the Bucs have $11.98 million in space under the projected $180.5 million salary cap.

The Bucs have about two dozen players set to become unrestricted free agents, a list that includes Shaquil Barrett, receivers Chris Godwin and Antonio Brown, linebacker Lavonte David, tight end Rob Gronkowski, defensive tackles Ndamukong Suh and Rakeem Nunez-Roches and placekicker Ryan Succop. Naturally, Brady would like for the Bucs to retain as many of those players as possible. For example, the Bucs could turn part of Brady’s

$25 million salary into a $10 million bonus and lower his salary-cap number by $5 million by counting half of it in 2021 and the other half in 2022. Brady, 43, showed no signs of slowing down after passing for 4,633 yards with 40 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. He added 10 more touchdown passes in the playoffs and Super Bowl. Bucs general manager Jason Licht made it clear a couple weeks ago that a priority would be extendSee Brady, Page B8

It’s weird to say this about someone as acclaimed as Tom Hanks, but: He’s underrated. Yes, Hollywood’s nicest guy has two best actor Oscars on his mantel (for “Philadelphia” in 1994 and “Forrest Gump” in 1995), but that category seems to be done with him. He has not been nominated in it since “Cast Away” in 2001, although he did snag a supporting nod last year for “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.” That means a string of his best work has escaped the little gold guy’s attention: “Captain Phillips,” “Sully,” “The Post,” “Catch Me if You Can,” “Road to Perdition.” Hanks was thought to be an awards contender for all of those and he’ll probably miss out again for “News of the World” when nominations are announced March 15. Undoubtedly, none of this bothers Hanks. After a Covid-19 battle that shuttered production for months, he’s back in Australia, playing Elvis Presley manager Colonel Tom Parker in a Baz Luhrmann project. He has a sci-fi movie called “Bios” and several other titles lined up. “In the Garden of Beasts” will find him squarely in the Hanks wheelhouse: a principled authority figure who bucks the tide to do what’s right, much like his characters in “Bridge of Spies,” “Greyhound,” “Philadelphia” and “The Green Mile.” Even when he played a mobbed-up gunman in “Road to Perdition,” he was a kindly mobster who loved his kid. The exciting aspect of the Luhrmann movie is that it will bust Hanks out of nice-guy jail. He once claimed that he wasn’t sure he could play a villain but, perhaps spurred by frequent questions on that topic, he’s finally breaking bad (unless you count the nefarious Bill Gates type he played in “The Circle,” widely and wisely ignored). Parker is a liar and cheat who may have harmed Presley’s career as much as he helped it, and weirdly, it’ll be the actor’s second Elvis-adjacent film after the little-seen but droll “Elvis Has Left the Building.” In a Walker Art Center appearance where he said he once considered moving to Minneapolis to try his luck at the Guthrie Theater, Hanks also traced his choices back to childhood. “If there is any one thing that sort of does in fact drive my artistic bent in choosing films or relating to characters or being interested in these themes, even if they’re just comedies, [it’s] usually that – combating against loneliness,” he said. Here are seven greats from Hanks to keep you company.

Daily Cryptoquotes

Allen J. Schaben/Los Angeles Times file (2020)

Cecil B. deMille Award winner Tom Hanks in the photo deadline room at the 77th Golden Globe Awards at the Beverly Hilton, Jan.5, 2020.

‘Captain Phillips’ (2013) Picking just one of Hanks’ many pilot/captain/astronauts means skipping past “Apollo 13,” but this is my favorite Hanks performance. It’s all about the final moments after Phillips, having survived an attack by pirates, drops his steely resolve to reveal all the feels he has bottled up.

‘A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood’ (2019) Hanks has many gifts as a performer, but you wouldn’t necessarily list “transformation” among them. Everyone knows who Mister Rogers was, which makes this performance even more miraculous because Hanks uses Rogers’ measured delivery and a few cardigans to convince us he’s the beloved TV neighbor. Marielle Heller’s film smartly uses the association between two beloved icons by insisting Rogers and Hanks have more dimension than their work hints at.

‘News of the World’ (2020) Once a star develops a “thing” they use often, one of the smartest strategies is to deploy that thing in different contexts and genres. Hanks’ traveling news reader is not much different from the average-guy-of-principle role he often plays, but the 19thcentury Texas setting makes it feel fresh.

‘Forrest Gump’ (1994) Hanks became only the second back-to-back best actor winner (the first was Spencer Tracy) for “Gump,” although he says it took three days of unusable footage before he figured out how to do it. Incredibly, although director Robert Zemeckis has said he can’t imagine anyone else as the kindhearted Forrest, it’s been reported that John Travolta turned down the role in favor of “Pulp Fiction” (for which he lost the Oscar to

Hanks) and that Bill Murray and Chevy Chase also spurned the part.

‘The Ladykillers’ (2004) You could call Goldthwaite Higginson Dorr a villain, but he’s so pervy and absurd that it’s hard to think of him that way. Dolled up like Colonel Sanders, Hanks handles Joel and Ethan Coen’s rococo language beautifully. The actor said he wanted the Coens to fit him into one of their bizarro worlds; they responded by handing him the sort of goofy screw-up they usually ask George Clooney to play.

‘Big’ (1988) A lot of funny people have a childlike quality, but not Hanks. Even when he’s immature (in “Bachelor Party,” for instance), he’s undeniably an adult. Maybe because his own sense of humor is so knowing? But in “Big,” the first movie where it was clear he’s a gifted character actor, he captures the innocent selfishness of a kid so believably that his would-be love scenes with (adult) Elizabeth Perkins are real creepy.

‘Punchline’ (1988) It’s probably as hard for an actor to pretend to be a standup comic as it is to be a singer – maybe harder, since singing can be dubbed. That’s demonstrated in this drama about a pair who become friends while grinding out the comedy club circuit. Putting to good use his experience as the dream guest of late-night talk show hosts, Hanks nails both the neediness and the wit that covers it up, in a way that co-star Sally Field can’t. (In time-dishonored Hollywood fashion, they play potential lovers in “Punchline” but the next time they’d be on-screen together, the 10-years-older Field would be his mom in “Gump.”)

adopt the safety play of leading a low club toward dummy’s holding. This produces four club tricks whatever the lie of the suit and is particularly effective when West has all five missing clubs. Well, you are nearly right. But there is another tripwire that may cause you to fall. At trick one, the natural reaction is to play low from the dummy, capturing East’s spade queen with your king. Now a low club to the 10 wins trick two, East discarding a heart. You return to hand with a heart and lead another low club. However, West, if in midseason form, wins with his queen and returns a heart. This removes your last hand entry before the clubs have been unblocked. Suddenly the contract has perished. What is the solution? Well, there are two (three, if you count a squeezeendplay against West in clubs). You could win trick one with dummy’s IS IT THE SAME, OR spade ace.

Scammers switched fake jobs. Now, they’re claiming they’re from the Social Security Administration, not the Internal Revenue Service.

Scammers now text pictures of phony Social Security badges Susan Tompor

Detroit Free Press

S

o you just got a text from Social Security and the guy even tried to reassure you that he’s the real deal by texting you a picture of his badge. Should you feel that things are on the up-andup and respond? The scammers who are out to steal your Social Security number and your money now have a new game going. They’re not just spoofing phone numbers out of Washington. They’re now impersonating someone from Social Security by sending photos of government badges. The crooks have created fake versions of ID badges that many federal employees use to gain access to federal buildings. “The scammers play on emotion, generally fear, to get people to act without thinking,” Social Security Administration Commissioner Andrew Saul said in a press call Wednesday. He stressed that it’s essential that people simply hang up and not even engage with the caller. Don’t let anyone threaten you or harass you into thinking that somehow your Social Security number is connected to a criminal investigation. Social Security isn’t going to call to threaten your benefits or tell you to wire money, send cash, or put money on gift cards. But scammers make such threatening calls do every hour on the hour. CVS shoppers might have even heard in-store announcements lately from the Social Security Administration to warn them about such scams. Walmart and Home Depot participated in the latest awareness campaign, too. You don’t want to buy a gift card – and then read off the card numbers to someone on the phone who claims to be from law enforcement or Social Security. In some cases, your caller ID may show the real SSA phone number – 800-772-1213 – when the scammers call. But again, the con artists are able to spoof this number and make it look more legitimate.

Consumers continue to get alarming phone calls from someone who claims to be from law enforcement or Social Security. The caller then may try to scare you into thinking that your Social Security number has been connected to running drugs and money laundering across the border. The crooks use a variety of tactics to seem legitimate, including rattling off a “badge number” of law enforcement officers, sending email attachments containing personal information about an “investigation” and texting links to click on and “learn more” about a Social Securityrelated problem. The Federal Trade Commission advises: n Do not trust caller ID. Scam calls may show up on caller ID as the Social Security Administration and look like the agency’s real number, but it’s not the SSA calling. n Your Social Security number is not about to be suspended. And your bank accounts are not about to be seized. n Don’t verify your Social Security number or any other personal information to anyone who calls out of the blue. If you already did, visit IdentityTheft.gov/SSA to find out what steps to take now. n If you believe you or someone you know is a victim of elder fraud, file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission online at www. ftccomplaintassistant.gov or call 877-382-4357. In 2020, the Social Security Administration received more than 730,000 scam complaints – with victim losses hitting more than $59 million. Only about 1.5% of the people who reported a scam to Social Security alleged they had lost money. The average loss for those who did claim to lose cash was $6,100. The Office of the Inspector General for the Social Security Administration notes: “If you ever owe money to Social Security, the agency will mail you a letter with payment options and appeal rights. Social Security does not suspend Social Security numbers or demand secrecy

from you in resolving a problem– ever.” Successful scammers can steal hundreds of thousands of dollars. One criminal out of suburban Chicago ran a telemarketing scheme where callers falsely claiming to be from the Social Security Administration and U.S. Department of Justice called people to say that their identity had been stolen. To get out of the mess, somehow the ID victim was to transfer money to various bank accounts, which later supposedly would be paid back once the situation was resolved. An elderly woman from Massachusetts ended up transferring a total of more than $900,000 from her bank and retirement accounts to scammers. Hirenkumar P. Chaudhari, 27, of Des Plaines, Ill., pleaded guilty on Jan. 6 to one count of money laundering, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Northern Illinois District. Chaudhari allegedly used a phony Indian passport and false names to open those bank accounts. Many times, victims can be scared into taking one call after another from these scammers. “They get kept on the phone for hours, if not days, at a time,” said Gail S. Ennis., Inspector General for the Social Security Administration. The same set of scammers may even pretend to be from different agencies and make a string of calls to the same victim. While some victims are elderly, Ennis said, the scammers are reaching out to all age groups when they’re impersonating the Social Security Administration. “They’re not targeting,” she said. “They are merely robo-dialing.” An older person might lose more money to these scams simply because they’ve built up a lifetime of savings. “A 20-year-old is not going to have a 401(k) that has $900,000 in it,” Ennis said.

as a portion of its overall capital spending. But the announcement is another sign from Cargill of how heated the soybean market has become. U.S. soybean prices are now at the highest level in six years.

Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)

Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250.

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 or visit this Internet Web site www.ndscorp.com/sales, using the file number assigned to this case 20-00226-CE-CA. 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.

BOX 6875 SANTA ROSA, CA 95406-0875 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 (800) 683-2468 or visit this Internet Web site: www.servicelinkASAP.com, using the Trustee Sale number assigned to this file, T.S. #20151-PR. 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. A-4730185 03/08/2021, 03/15/2021, 03/22/2021 DR# 00045311 Published: March 8, 15, 22, 2021

Griffin: Targets title in move to Brooklyn Brady: May return From Page B1 tained since the beginning of the season that the team is on the hunt for every way to improve a team squarely positioned to compete for an NBA championship. The Nets have a full roster, which means they would need to waive a player to make room for Griffin, likely a player on a 10-day contract. Veterans Iman Shumpert and Andre Roberson are on 10-day deals, as is G-League big man Tyler Cook. Griffin has only appeared in 20 games this season since he and the Pistons agreed it best he stay away from the team while they negotiated his way out of Detroit. He was not very effective in those 20 games, averaging just 12 points, five rebounds and four assists in 31 minutes per game. Griffin’s fit is also questionable on a Nets team that already had its bout with defensive shortcomings. He was never a defensive standout and by the time the All-Star break is over, will be a month removed from his last minutes of action in an NBA game.

If the Nets sign him, it’s unclear what role he will play, how effective he can be in that role, how quickly he can get up to speed with the Nets’ offensive and defensive philosophies, where his conditioning level is, and whether he can regain the form that once endeared him as one of the league’s most electrifying talents. The Nets also have players who have proven effective at Griffin’s position, including veteran forward Jeff Green, second-year big man Nic Claxton, hybrid wing Bruce Brown and, of course, Jordan, who hit his stride during the team’s West Coast trip. Griffin also has to fight an uphill battle, bouncing back from back-to-back surgeries on his left knee over each of the two seasons preceding this one. He averaged 24.5 points, 7.5 rebounds and 5.4 assists in the 2018-19 season but has not been able to stay on the floor since. Last season, Griffin averaged 15.5 points. His production tapered off in Detroit this season before he stepped away from the team.

He was also money when shooting the Mountain Dew ball, which is shot from deeper and worth three points instead of one. Curry made three of the four he took in the two rounds. Curry was asked how critical it was to make those long shots. “It’s different because you’re going around the line and you have to step back,” Curry said of the extended distance, which was added last year. “I knew in the final round if I could make those two, that would put me in good position and I needed every bit of it, so I like that addition to the contest.” Curry also was asked about the difference in shooting three-pointers off the basketball rack versus off the dribble. “Little bit more pres-

sure off the rack ‘cause the ball is sitting right there,” Curry said. “That’s it. Yeah, just have fun with it.” In the first competition of the night, it came down to the big men in the skills competition. Indiana’s 6-foot-11 forward Domantas Sabonis defeated Orlando 7-foot center Nikola Vucevic. “Yeah, it was fun,” said Sabonis, a secondtime All-Star who was last year’s runner-up in the event. “Just come out and I wanted to make sure I got it done this time.” The contest included Portland’s Robert Covington, Dallas’ Luka Doncic, Phoenix’s Chris Paul and New York’s Julius Randle. “Yeah, I’m really excited about it,” Sabonis said of playing in the AllStar game. “I’m just going to come out here and enjoy it with the guys.”
