Solano board hears how alcohol sold online finds way into hands of youth Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — It is not particularly surprising that retail and online alcohol sales have increased during the Covid-19 pandemic. After all, bars, breweries, distilleries, wineries and restaurants have been closed to the public for much of that time. However, the Solano County Board of Supervisors were told this week that along with an increase in sales and home deliveries of alcohol, state Alcoholic Beverage Control enforcement teams have found that a fair amount of that alcohol is getting delivered right into the hands of underage drinkers.
The ABC reports that while regulation compliance rates are improving, decoy operations involving the home delivery of alcohol resulted in 229 citations being issues from April 2020 to January. “ABC has conducted multiple delivery decoy operations . . . The latest operation saw an 83% compliance rate but still showed a 17% violation rate,” an ABC spokesman noted in an email response to the Daily Republic. Here are the results of those operations: n Decoy Delivery Operation, April 24, 2020: 30 out of 38 drivers delivered alcohol to See Youth, Page A10

Veterans along with their spouses and caregivers wait in line to receive the Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine
SAN JOSE — Nearly half of Californians 18 and older have received at least one Covid-19 vaccine shot, an encouraging metric as some experts watch with concern spiking case rates in Michigan, New Jersey and elsewhere in the country. So far, 46.8% of adults in California have received at least one vaccine shot, and 25.5% have been fully vac-
cinated, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Among residents 65 and older, 81.5% have received at least one shot, and 57.4% are fully vaccinated. The state has now administered 22 million doses, about 80% of those delivered to California, and is averaging 371,510 daily injections, an 11% increase from a See Half, Page A10

About 200 people came out Saturday to get their single-dose vaccine against the novel coronavirus that causes Covid-19.
FAIRFIELD — It was a short wait for a shot in the arm for veterans Saturday morning as the first Fairfield Veterans Covid vaccine clinic saw about 200 people, including veterans’ spouses and caregivers. “We have done many clinics since the vaccines came out but this is a first community clinic outside of our other clinics in Fairfield,” said U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Primary Care Supervisor Arlicia Allen. They hope to reach as many people as possible, especially veterans and their families. The staff were all volunteers from various Veterans Affairs clinics from across California. They had 200 people call for appointments but they also had extra vaccines for walk-ins. “It is a lot of fun seeing the
veterans outside of the clinics and getting them what they need without hassle,” Allen said. The vaccine was from Johnson & Johnson, so it was a one-time shot. “They don’t have to worry about coming back,” she said. “Today is it.” The clinicians went over potential side effects, which were few but did include a sore arm and possible fatigue.

No one who says “supposably” really means it. They mean supposedly. Yet Dictionary.com now says they’re fine. It reminded me of an experience early in my journalism career, when a co-worker wrote an article in which he described an ugly building as an isor. He meant eyesore. He just hadn’t ever seen the word in print, so he spelled it isor. The editors didn’t react by adding isor to the list of words

It’s the dictionary’s job to indicate what is correct. I’m not a language prude, but I stand with the truth: A dictionary embracing an improper word will affect all of us and the effect will be negative. See?

Covid care bar mitzvah project: ‘It makes me feel good to help others’ Tribune Content Agency For his bar mitzvah project, Zach Mandel of Boca Raton, Florida, wanted to collect food and toiletries for less fortunate people struggling during the Covid-19 pandemic. As a result, Zach, 13, came up with what is called a Covid Care project that has benefited Boca Helping Hands, a community-based nonprofit that provides food, medical and financial assistance to people in need in South Florida. For the project, Zach asked his friends and family to contribute food and other necessities in lieu of traditional gifts for his bar mitzvah. He has donated more than 470 items to BHH. The donations he picked up from friends and family that he delivered to the organization include canned fruits and vegetables, cereal, cereal bars, crackers, jelly, pasta, peanut butter, soup, tomato sauce and rice. He also collected toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss, razors, deodorant, shampoo, conditioner and soap. “It makes me feel really good to help others,” Zach said. “Since donations to Boca Helping Hands have been lower during Covid, it’s a good way to give back by donating food and toiletries.” Zach is a seventh grade student at Pine Crest School’s Boca Raton campus. He explained his inspiration for helping the organization with his project. “At my school, I was on the student council, so we would take a field trip every year to Boca Helping Hands, and some-

Zach chose to help the organization for his bar mitzvah project. thing about it really caught my eye, so I decided that for my mitzvah project, I wanted to donate there and help out others,” he said. Zach’s bar mitzvah ceremony took place at Congregation B’nai Israel in Boca Raton. The week before his bar mitzvah, his friends took part in a drive-by to celebrate him. “That was really fun and relieving for me, since I hadn’t seen a bunch of my friends in a long time,” Zach said about the driveby. “It was fun to relax and see everyone before my bar mitzvah.” Zach is also grateful for his friends and family for helping him on the project with donations. “The response of the community was really overwhelming to me, and I think it was great that everyone wanted to pitch in and help our community that we live in,” he said. Zach feels the project will help him in the future, as he said, “I’m learning
about kindness and compassion for people overall in the world.” Zach said his mother has been a big supporter in the project. “She has helped along the way helping collect the items,” he said. “She’s been a very big help.” His mother, Allison Mandel, said, “I’m really proud of Zach, for his bar mitzvah project and for every day.” “He came up with the Covid Care project on his own, because he knows that during the pandemic a lot of people are going through a challenging time,” she continued. “I think it’s important to give back to the community in which we live. Zach cares deeply for others and he cares about others. He’s a selfless, compassionate caring young man.” Greg Hazle, executive director of Boca Helping Hands, said in a news release, “Zach really set an example for kids his age.”

Health officer says Easter numbers start to show up Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — Solano County experienced a 38-case bump in its coronavirus numbers Friday – an increase county health officials are attributing to residents getting together for the Easter holidays. “I’m going to say we are (seeing holiday numbers), and I’m going to be surprised if it doesn’t continue through the weekend,” Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said in a phone interview Friday. The increase, nearly half of which were in Vallejo, took the county’s total to 31,527. Matyas noted that the seven-day positivity testing rate dropped to 5%, which is the orange-tier threshold, and the number of hospitalizations was up by one to 17, but stayed in the range within which it has been for a couple of weeks. The testing positivity was updated later Friday to 5.1%. “But it would be a little early (for Easter numbers to affect) hospitalizations,” Matyas said. If that number does start to climb, it will likely mean some older residents were exposed to the virus during the holiday activities. Matyas said the number of county residents who have received at least one vaccine shot is at 154,800, which is 45% of the adult population, 16 or older. The total number of doses administered is up to 238,000, meaning about 25.5% of Solano’s adult population is fully immunized. There were no new Covid-related deaths reported, which remains 203, and active cases, after a few days of increases, slipped back to 262. Vallejo accounted for 17 of the 38 confirmed cases, taking its total to 9,379.

Walter Parsons
Aug. 9, 1952 — March 8, 2021
Walter Frederick Parsons, age 68, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his two daughters and wife, Kathy, on their 46th wedding anniversar y, March 8, 2021. Walter was born in San Francisco, California, on Aug. 9, 1952, to George and Ilse Parsons. He grew up in Pittsburg, California, where he graduated from Pittsburg High in 1970 and where he later began a family. He studied at San Francisco State and Diablo Valley College, where he met the love of his life, Kathy, and later married March 8, 1975, in Walnut Creek, California. Together they had two daughters, Kelly and Kristy. Walter began his career in lithography at Mastercraft Press in San Francisco; a talented pressman with an eye for art and attention to detail. Here, he mastered the six-color Heidelberg Press and became a journeyman pressman. He enjoyed his craft and all the friends he met along the way. In 1991, his family relocated to Fairfield, California, where they eventually bought Credit Bureau of Fairfield. Walter worked part-time there after retirement. His natural, witty gift of humor, onedollar side bets, and hot burgers off his old
beat-up Weber grills are things his colleagues will never forget. As a devoted husband, father, grandpa and friend, he was an avid sports fan who knew when to ‘hold-em’ and when to ‘fold-em’. Walter was a 20–year season ticket holder with the Oakland A’s and a loyal Oakland Raiders fan who traveled to the 1981 Super Bowl XV in New Orleans. Walter’s annual April Fool’s poker tournaments became a Fairfield tradition for 18 years. He also cherished his Tuesday nights with his Pittsburg Poker family. Always proud of his Pittsburg and Parkside roots, he maintained lifetime friendships where his friends became the brothers and sisters he never had. Walter was a stranger to no one and the life of any party. He will be deeply missed by all of those that knew him. Walter is survived by his wife, Kathryn (Goldmann) Parsons; daughters, Kelly O’Brien (Steven) and Kristy Ciesielski (Nicholas); and seven beautiful grandchildren that he adored. A Celebration of Life will be held in Fairfield, California, in early August with family and friends to honor his full and blessed life, his trademark flip flops, and the many ‘moons’ spent together.

Supreme Court lifts state’s Covid-19 ban on group Bible study in homes Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court, citing religious liberty, has lifted another of California’s Covid-19 restrictions, holding the state may not prevent people from gathering in homes for Bible study and prayer meetings. The court issued a 5-4 order near midnight Friday barring the enforcement of a state restriction that was due to expire on Thursday. The court’s conservatives slammed the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals for what they called another “erroneous” decision in favor of the state. “This is the fifth time the court has summarily rejected the 9th Circuit’s analysis of California’s Covid restrictions on religious exercise,” they said in Tandon vs. Newsom. In the most significant of the rulings, the court in early February said churches in California may open for indoor worship services, so long as they enforced limits on how many people

Repeatedly in these cases, judges in California and the justices in Washington have disagreed over how to compare, for example, people gathering in a restaurant or hair salon to people gathering for a worship service. The state has enforced stricter limits on indoor gatherings such as in theaters or churches where people sit together for an hour or more while allowing retail stores where people go in and out to remain open. In the latest order, the conservative justices again noted that the state has opened public businesses while restricting religious gatherings. And they said the state regulators are violating the First Amendment’s protection for the free exercise of religion “whenever they treat any comparable secular activity more favorably than reli-

Kagan accused the majority of comparing “apples and watermelons” and concluding they are essentially equal. “The 1st Amendment requires that a state treat religious conduct as well as the state treats comparable secular conduct. Sometimes finding the right secular analogue may raise hard questions. But not today,” she wrote. “California limits religious gatherings in homes to three households.

DAILY REPUBLIC — Sunday, April 11, 2021 A5
NASA preparing to fly Ingenuity helicopter on Mars The Washington Post They landed a carsize rover on Mars, and the brilliant, if cheeky, engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory even snuck a coded message into the parachute used to slow it down for a soft landing that read, “Dare Mighty Things.” Now comes what the space agency says will be a “Wright brothers” moment on Mars: the first powered flight of an aircraft on another planet. It won’t fly far, just to the height of a basketball rim and down, a short hop that should take about 40 seconds. But the autonomous flight of a tiny helicopter called Ingenuity would mark a first in interplanetary travel, demonstrate a new technology and pave the way for scientists and explorers to more quickly traverse the surface of the Red Planet. Originally expected to happen as early as Sunday, the flight was postponed until no earlier than Wednesday after a problem during a test of spinning the rotor blades at full power. In a statement Saturday, NASA said, “The helicopter is safe and healthy and communicated its full telemetry set to Earth.” But it is diagnosing the problem before running another test. The flight will be a technology demonstration add-on to the main feature of the mission – the Perseverance rover, a fourwheeled vehicle designed to explore the landscape of a crater that once held water and could yield clues about the possibility of ancient life there. The rover is outfitted with all sorts of cameras and sensors that can zoom in on rock formations and collect data about the planet’s landscape and climate. “Reading the geological history embedded in its rocks will give scientists a richer sense of what the planet was like in its
Bible From Page A4 not require that the state equally treat apples and watermelons.” Last week, lawyers for several pastors in Santa Clara County asked the court to issue an emergency order lifting California’s limits on home gatherings. “Pastor Jeremy Wong and Karen Busch regularly held Bible studies, prayer meetings, and worship services at their homes – as had millions of other Christians in California who sincerely believe assembling for small-group, ‘house church’ fellowship is just as indispensable to their faith as attending Mass is for a Catholic,” they told the court. “Yet for over a year now, California has completely prohibited or substantially restricted those ‘gatherings’ and many others.” A federal judge and the 9th Circuit Court had refused to lift the state’s restrictions.
If successful, Ingenuity’s flight would come nearly 120 years after the Wright brothers’ first flight of a plane above the beach in North Carolina. Nothing like Kitty Hawk, Ingenuity’s airfield is a dusty, rock-strewn, barren strip of land that is flat enough, NASA hopes, for takeoff and landing. distant past,” NASA said. Perseverance carried Ingenuity with it, a tiny offspring clinging to the under-carriage of the rover during the sevenmonth, 300-million-mile journey, the white knuckled landing through Mars’s atmosphere and the frigid Martian nights since. Now it’s almost ready for its first flight. “It could be an amazing day,” Tim Canham, NASA’s Ingenuity operations lead, told reporters Friday. “We’re all nervous, but we have confidence that we put in the work and the time and we have the right people to do the job.” Ingenuity is a sprite of a helicopter, just fourpounds, with four pointy legs, two rotor blades that whirl at blinding speed in opposite directions, a solar panel and a fuselage packed with avionics designed to help it navigate the thin Martian atmosphere – another marvel to emerge from the labs at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. It’s no easy feat, flying a helicopter on Mars. The reduced gravity – about one-third of Earth’s – will help it take off and stay aloft. But the paucity of the Martian atmosphere, just 1% of the density of Earth’s, doesn’t give the blades much to chew on as they try to gain purchase for liftoff. “That’s the equivalent of about 100,000 feet of altitude on Earth, or three times the height of Mount Everest,” said MiMi Aung, NASA’s Ingenuity project manager. “We don’t generally fly things that high.” Commercial airliners fly at about 35,000 feet above the Earth, she noted, On Thursday, the state’s lawyers urged the court to stand aside, noting the restrictions would be lifted within a week. Moreover, the state’s “policy is entirely neutral toward religion; it applies to gatherings for any purpose – secular or religious,” they said.

adding: “There were some people who doubted we could generate enough lift to fly in that thin Martian atmosphere.” The twin blades can spin incredibly fast, 2,400 rotations per minute, and were designed to propel the drone-like Ingenuity off the ground. “Those blades are not something off the shelf,” she said. “They are really fine-tuned to maximize the lift that we can generate in such a thin atmosphere.” If successful, Ingenuity’s flight would come nearly 120 years after the Wright brothers’ first flight of a plane above the beach in North Carolina. Nothing like Kitty Hawk, Ingenuity’s airfield is a dusty, rock-strewn, barren strip of land that is flat enough, NASA hopes, for takeoff and landing. Designed as a test vehicle, Ingenuity is “in the long tradition of experimental aircraft that started with the Wright brothers, who were able to bring aerial mobility as a dimension for us to be able to travel here on Earth,” NASA’s Bob Balaram, the chief engineer of the Mars helicopter project, said in a news briefing last
month. “In the same way, we are hoping that Ingenuity also allows us to expand and open up aerial mobility on Mars.” As a tribute to the Wright brothers, Ingenuity has a postage-stamp-size bit of fabric from the brothers’ aircraft attached to a cable under the solar panel. In 1903, the Wright brothers’ first flight went about 120 feet. Ingenuity’s first flight won’t go that far. Initially it plans to lift off, rise to about 10 feet, hover for some 30 seconds and
come back down. If all goes according to plan, the helicopter could make as many as five flights, each one more ambitious than the last. The second, for example, would fly slightly higher, to 16 feet, and then horizontally for a little bit before returning to the landing site. The Perseverance rover will assist in Ingenuity’s flight, attempting to document it and relay signals back to Earth. Ingenuity is a side
benefit to the mission, a technology demonstration that could pave the way for more aircraft on Mars in the future that “could provide a supporting role as robotic scouts, surveying terrain from above,” NASA said. “It’s a high-risk, highreward approach that allows us to test capabilities we can improve on later, which could also advance science on future missions,” said Lori Glaze, director of NASA’s planetary science division.

82-year-old dresses to the nines each Sunday for virtual church The Washington Post It’s been more than a year now that churchgoers have been watching virtual streaming Sunday services on their cellphones and computers during the pandemic. Many have made a habit of tuning in while wearing cozy sweatpants or pajamas. Then there’s La Verne Ford Wimberly of Tulsa, Okla. The 82-year-old retired educator decks herself out head to toe every Sunday, then – to the delight of fellow parishioners at Metropolitan Baptist Church – posts a selfie on Facebook after the service. Since March 29, 2020, she has taken photos of herself from her living room in 53 different colorcoordinated outfits – each one carefully selected from the burgeoning closets, jewelry boxes and neatly stacked hat boxes that have satisfied her love of making a grand entrance since she was a young schoolteacher in the 1960s.

One of L a Verne Ford Wimberly’s impeccably coordinated outfits that have wowed fellow parishioners at Metropolitan Baptist Church. She hasn’t decided what she’ll be wearing this Sunday, but those who know Wimberly said the odds are good that she’ll make a big splash. “She never skips a beat with the hats, the clothes and all that beautiful jewelry,” said Robin Watkins, 54, the church’s executive office assistant. “If anyone is feeling downtrodden, they just
look at her [Facebook] page and immediately feel uplifted,” she said. “Her heart is as beautiful as each outfit she has shared with us.” Parishioners often call Wimberly “Doctor.” She has a PhD in education and the years she spent as a school principal and superintendent after she’d moved on from teaching, Watkins said. She was already known at her church for the headturning outfits she wore every Sunday, so when the pandemic hit last year and in-person services were canceled, Wimberly decided to up her game. “In the 20 years I’ve been going to church there, I’ve always had my little routine that I learned from my mother as a girl,” she said. “I’d pick out a nice outfit and hat and lay it out the night before, so that I could be prepared and look presentable.” When she learned last year that Metropolitan’s service would be streamed on March 29 due to the
coronavirus threat, Wimberly said she couldn’t imagine wearing her bathrobe and slippers while tuning in from her living room, even if she was by herself. “I thought, ‘Oh, my goodness, I can’t sit here looking slouchy in my robe,’ ” she said. “I didn’t want to sit around alone and feel sorry for myself, so I decided, ‘You know what? I’m going to dress up anyway.’ ” Wimberly got up early to style her hair and put on some lipstick, then she slipped into a favorite white dress trimmed with eyelet, a sheer white ruffled hat, matching shoes and a beaded turquoise and gold necklace. After she posted the photo and a Bible scripture for her friends, she was inundated with positive responses, she said. “For years, everyone had known to look for me in the last row, section two, dressed to the nines,” Wimberly said. “People always looked forward to seeing
what I was wearing. So when I posted that photo, everyone told me it boosted their spirits.” The following Sunday, she decided to do it again, this time selecting a bright blue ensemble with silver and white jewelry. And the week after that, on Easter Sunday, Wimberly chose a pink skirt and beaded sweater jacket, and a matching hat decorated with pink and yellow lilies. She soon decided to write down what she wore each week on a calendar so that she wouldn’t commit the faux pas of wearing the same outfit twice. “It’s safe to say that 50 is a good number for the hats,” she confessed. “But the clothes? I’d better not go there. Let’s just say I’m now refusing to look at any catalogues.” She never anticipated that anyone outside her congregation would find out about her selfie Sundays, she said. But then, on March 22, a local television reporter who attends Wimberly’s church
decided to do a story about her colorful outfits. “I started hearing from people everywhere who said my photos made them smile,” said Wimberly. “The whole point was to inspire people and make them feel good, so I’m happy that’s working.” Her pastor, Ray Owens, said he’s not at all surprised that Wimberly’s vogue outfits are a hit. “Dr. Wimberly’s impressive hat collection is merely an outer expression of her inner wisdom, wit and grace,” he said. “We look forward to the day she again graces our church sanctuary with her impeccable style.” Wimberly is hopeful that she’ll be back in her pew by late spring or early summer, she said. Of course, she’ll then face a dilemma. “What will I wear? That will be determined by the season and the weather,” said Wimberly. “Maybe something purple with black and white. You can’t go wrong there.”

Gun salutes mark death of Britain’s Prince Philip Funeral set for Saturday Tribune Content Agency LONDON — Gun salutes rang out across Britain, in Gibraltar and from vessels at sea on Saturday to mark the death of Prince Philip, the husband of Queen Elizabeth II. Saluting batteries fired 41 rounds at one round every minute from midday, the Ministry of Defense said. Buckingham Palace said the prince, also known as the duke of Edinburgh, died on Friday morning at Windsor Castle, which lies to the west of London. The palace on Saturday also announced that Philip’s funeral would take place Saturday, in a scaleddown ceremony due to the coronavirus pandemic. The funeral is to begin at 3 p.m. local time in St. George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle. “In line with government guidelines and public health measures, there will be no public processions,” a palace spokesperson said. The spokesperson also said that while Meghan,

Britain’s Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, takes part in the transfer of the Colonel-in-Chief of The Rifles at Windsor Castle in Windsor, July 22, 2020. His funeral service will be scaled down due to the pandemic. the duchess of Sussex, had been advised by her doctor not to travel to Britain for the funeral due to her pregnancy, Prince Harry would attend the ceremony. Meanwhile, members of the royal family led the tributes to Philip, who was also remembered by leaders around the world. “As you can imagine, my family and I miss my father enormously. He was a much loved and appreciated figure,” said Prince Charles, Philip’s son, on Saturday. “My dear Papa was a very special person who
I think above all else would have been amazed by the reaction and the touching things that have been said about him,” he added, thanking people for their sympathies. Prince Edward visited his mother, the queen, on Saturday. His wife, Sophie, said “the queen has been amazing,” the broadcaster BBC reported. Pope Francis added his condolences to the royal family, remembering Philip’s “devotion” to his family and contribution to education.
1 killed, 6 injured in freeway shooting Tribune Content Agency F ORT WORT H , Texas — Six people were shot Friday night in south Fort Worth when the occupants of two cars on the Southwest Loop 820 freeway started shooting at each other, including at least two people who were innocent bystand-
ers, police said. Dominick Dijuan Primes, 19, was taken to a nearby hospital, where he died, according to the Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office. The five others suffered injuries that aren’t life-threatening, police said. The incident is believed to be gang-related.
It wasn’t immediately clear if Primes was one of the innocent bystanders or in one of the cars. Officer Tracy Carter, a police spokesman, said in an email on Saturday morning, “The incident is still being investigated.” The suspects weren’t known as of Saturday morning.

Since then, I was unintentionally reacquainted with my first kiss/boyfriend, “Fred.” We met again, literally, the same week my mom died. We both fell hard in love with each other. After enduring numerous
horrific drunken hurtful situations with Fred over a period of five years, who never told me he blacks out when he drinks alcohol, I am finding myself wondering how much of our five-year relationship he remembers. Does he remember it as I do? We live apart in our own houses. He helps me a lot. He’s my mechanic, landscaper and handyman, and he’s also a friend. He knows that I’ve been dating and seeing other men the entire time we’ve been apart. Knowing that he experienced a traumatic head injury, do I dare try a relationship with him again? He doesn’t drink any longer. He said he has no apparent desire to. Do I give him another opportunity to make a life together? — Second Chances Dear Second Chance: I’m very sorry that you suffered
the loss of your husband. Fred sounds like he is trying. The fact that he does not drink anymore is huge and would change the dynamics of your relationship. However, without more specifics about this traumatic head injury, it if difficult to know how that could change your relationship. Are you ready to support him through any subsequent mental, emotional or physical traumas? If you love him, he loves you and you’re both going into this relationship with your eyes open, then go for it. If he starts drinking again or if you’re not on the same page, then it’s time to say goodbye to Fred. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@ creators.com.

Today’s birthday You’ll entertain and amaze! They want rabbits, and you’ll pull an endless supply from your hat. This drive to please will bring great excitement to your life when you focus it on the generous, compelling and deserving. You’ll build with great determination and, in time, many will live inside your dream. Sagittarius and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 5, 15, 49 and 31.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Once you find points of connection between you and another person, you’re off to a beautiful exchange. Before finding those points, you won’t proceed far, so it’s worth looking for them. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You have a right to ask questions. Anyone who makes you feel otherwise either can’t answer those questions for a lack of knowledge and understanding or is trying to control you. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Friends who are on a superstar trajectory are fun to watch. When the gold dust of big success is in your realm, it rubs off on you, too. This feels like destiny because it is. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll make a proactive and deliberate attempt to achieve an aim that is not achieved by most people. It’s nice when this gets noticed today, but honestly, you’re doing it for the challenge, not the glory. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). People say and do things to get a reaction but often don’t get the one they wanted. You have a strong instinct for the sort of response people are craving and will deliver it on cue, laying the groundwork for mutual enjoyment. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Maybe it is not your purpose to incite curiosity and show people less obvious truths, but that is the natural result of your devotion to a meaningful interest that, in some way, pertains to us all. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Before you ready yourself to battle the day, consider what’s necessary. A moment of neutrality will bring all into harmony. There is beauty in defenselessness; gentleness is the winner that casts no loser. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Generic sentiments, however true or well-intended, will fall flat. There’s power in a specific focus and intent with your sharing. Aim your efforts to someone who matters dearly to you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Trusted friends help you get outside of your own head. You’ll talk to people, bounce notions off of them, get their reactions and use that to figure out the weak and strong points of what you’re sharing. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The people you’ll deal with aren’t entirely rational. You understand them anyway because neither are you. Also, there’s a good chance that the seemingly illogical equation figures out perfectly on deeper levels. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Physical vicinity invokes different rules. Some prefer text and email because they are afraid of being influenced by a face-to-face encounter that is sure to bring more of the real stuff to the table, including empathy. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Even though you’ve never had a particular experience, your empathic talents allow you to summon the appropriate (if not downright healing) response to another person’s emotional state. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 11). CELEBRITY PROFILES: Once again, Kristen Stewart has landed the role of a character already widely beloved. The Aries actress will play Princess Dianna in the historical drama “Spencer.” Natal Venus in Pisces suggests that Stewart, like the vampire she played in the “Twilight” series, has deep powers of intuition, especially in matters of love. Moon in Libra signifies a soulful, romantic and poetic nature. Write Holiday Mathis at HolidayMathis.com.

Special to the Daily Republic
rom April 5-11, the American Public Health Association and Solano Public Health celebrated National Public Health Week along with hundreds of partners across the nation to celebrate and recognize public health. National Public Health Week included hundreds of events, conversations and activities, encouraging communities to act on public health priorities. National Public Health Week has increased significance this year, with the recognition of how essential public health is throughout the world, around the nation and here in Solano County – from the leaders who have taken action to keep communities safe; to the staff and volunteers who have worked around the clock to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus through testing, case investigation, contact tracing and vaccine clinic administration; and the nurses and doctors who dedicated so much of their time and expertise to serve the needs of their community members at the clinic and hospital settings. This year’s theme, “Building Bridges to Better Health,” focused on
the core values of public health and encouraged communities to organize and mobilize into action to improve health for all. The efforts aimed to highlight the benefits of prevention, advocate for healthy and equitable policies, share strategies for successful partnerships, and champion the role of a strong public health system. Solano Public Health takes this opportunity to honor all the dedicated staff and community partners working in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Covid-19 response efforts have included case investigation and contact tracing, outbreak mitigation, medical care and monitoring, testing, vaccination, public information dissemination and health education, case management and navigation, community collaboration, connection to basic needs resources and support, needs assessment and strategic planning, emergency preparedness and logistics coordination, and many more. In addition to recognizing the work of public health, this week is a perfect time to thank all who have helped respond to the pandemic. Community members rallied together this year, from elected officials, county leadership, county staff, partners in
health care, education, local community agencies and many others to protect the health and safety of our community members. This work has gone beyond the walls of public health and everyone has had to put so much time and effort to slow the spread of Covid-19. Covid-19 has underscored the importance of public health and highlighted the need for increased investment in public health infrastructure to keep communities safe and healthy and address health disparities that have been exposed and worsened by Covid-19. As National Public Health Week draws to a close, this shows how local public health departments function as the first line of defense against all public health threats. This is also a reminder that sustainable investment in public health is essential to ensure that a robust public health workforce and infrastructure is in place to contain and minimize not only the next outbreak or emergency, but to continuously improve the health of our communities.

Pandemic has damaged state’s schoolchildren
A
comprehensive history of the Covid-19 pandemic’s effect on California would surely conclude that the state’s schoolchildren have been treated shamefully. The incessant political squabbling over closing and reopening schools, and the sporadic efforts at in-home learning, have once again demonstrated that the supposed adults who manage and operate public education in California are more focused on their own interests than on the wellbeing of students. Indeed, one could easily describe what has happened and not happened in the schools Dan Walters as child neglect on a massive scale. California schools were not a roaring success even before pandemic struck more than a year ago. By almost any measure, we lagged behind other states, particularly in meeting the needs of the more than 3 million students classified as poor or English-learners. The many billions of dollars that the Legislature appropriated to improve their outcomes under former Gov. Jerry Brown’s Local Control Funding Formula were often misdirected with little accountability. When the novel coronavirus reared its ugly head, schools were quickly shuttered and educators scrambled to replace classroom instruction with at-home instruction via the internet. But once again, many of the children already at risk of failure were left behind, lacking the resources and/or familial support to participate. The damage has been huge, widening the already yawning gap between the at-risk students and their more privileged peers.A new reporton impacts in the Los Angeles Unified School District, the nation’s second-largest school system, reveals the extent of the damage. LA Unified’s classrooms have been closed for more than a year and will only begin to reopen later this month, largely due to conflicts between the district’s managers and its unions – a syndrome that’s delayed reopening in many large urban districts. “The Covid-19 pandemic has interrupted the livelihoods, health, education, child care and financial stability of millions,” says the report issued by Great Public Schools, a local advocacy group. “Students in Los Angeles Unified School District . . . are experiencing the painful loss of connection with their peers, teachers and school staff, and serious loss of learning that will have life-long consequences if not addressed.” “We may not know the full impact of this last year on our students for another year or more, but the preliminary data we have paints an alarming picture,” the report adds. Among the specific findings, based on LA Unified’s own data: n 40% of the district’s middle and high schoolers were disengaged or absent from classes in spring 2020. n Disengagement was likely even higher for elementary students. n More than 13,000 middle and high school students were consistently disengaged in fall 2020. An additional 56,000 did not actively participate on a daily basis. n Two-thirds of the district’s students are falling behind in literacy and math. Fewer young students of color are on target in reading skills compared to a year earlier. n Across all academic progress indicators, students of color, low-income students, English learners, foster children, students with disabilities and homeless students have been set back further than their more advantaged peers. n Many high school students are at risk of not graduating. Currently, 20% of the Class of 2021, 43% of the Class of 2022, 37% of the Class of 2023 and 30% of the Class of 2024 will not graduate. These numbers are – or should be – shocking and embarrassing to every adult involved in the operation of California schools, from Gov. Gavin Newsom downward. Not only are the futures of the affected children dimmer but their educational lapses will affect the entire state for decades to come.

A call for gun control Is it not the time for the federal government to enact a form of gun control for the citizens of this country? Is it not the time to say “no more of these mass murders” to the Congress with 90% approval rating by the public? I urge you to contact your congressman and voice your concern. Sadly, it is easier in this country to purchase weapons than reforming the right to vote. How many more Americans will die at the hands of guns? Let us be proactive and institute a change. We still have a country that demands that its citizens get involved. Let us not be complacent. Gun control now! It’s overdue and the right thing to do. James M. Pointer Vacaville
Vacaville needs Curtis Hunt on council During my 24 years with the city of Vacaville, I’ve had the privilege to work with numerous council members and I developed great respect for Curtis Hunt because of his well-informed decisions, his innovation and decisiveness on complex city issues. Curtis Hunt always took the time to completely understand all aspects of an issue before making his decision and was able to work in a positive way with the other council members and the public. He cares about our quality of life: strong public safety in addition to well-maintained streets, public buildings, parks and ball fields and recreation for our children. I am very pleased that he decided to run for the vacant Vacaville City Council seat. There truly couldn’t be a better choice for Vacaville. He knows the important role of council to keep Vacaville both fiscally strong, yet able to provide needed city
services. With his vast experience locally and on statewide issues that affect our city, his caring about the levels of service that the city should provide and the need for our town to stay financially solvent, our city needs Curtis Hunt back on our City Council. Dale Pfeiffer Vacaville
Vote Curtis Hunt for respect, accountability I first encountered Curtis Hunt five years ago when I moved to Vacaville and attended City Council meetings to acclimate myself to my new hometown. Not knowing anything about him or any other council member, Mr. Hunt’s respect for humanity stood out. His deliberations and decisions were fair and thoughtful, and demonstrated to me that he was not only aware, but determined to be responsive to the impact local government has on the day-to-day quality of life of all Vacaville residents. At these meetings, I witnessed Mr. Hunt express thorough knowledge of the issues at hand. The results of his intense scrutiny of the problems were honest solution suggestions that reflected consideration for the needs of all. He never juxtaposed his sense of duty toward residents against his stewardship for the fiscal and cultural well-being of the city. But always looked for the solutions that would serve the community best, weighing the consequences of the short- and long-term effect on the growth and development of Vacaville as well as its residents. I highly recommend Curtis Hunt to represent District 2, having observed his respect for the dignity of humanity, his civility and his astute ability to discern and communicate data and facts truthfully. As a leader who acknowledges that all voices should be heard and represented, Curtis Hunt will respond rather than react to the needs and goals of District 2, thereby, all
of Vacaville. I urge you to vote for respect and accountability and elect Curtis Hunt, Vacaville City Council, District 2. Alice Fried Vacaville
Vacaville City Council needs Ritchie It is my pleasure to write a personal letter to the editor supporting Greg Ritchie for Vacaville City Council District 2. I have known Greg for the past 27 years through his and his family’s volunteer efforts at the Vacaville Veterans Memorial Building. I have found Greg to be one of the most compassionate and caring men that I have ever met. On numerous occasions, I have witnessed his positive interactions with veterans, family members, seniors, disabled and the homeless while volunteering at the free Community Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve Dinner at the Veterans Memorial Building. I do not need to look at Greg’s numerous certificates of achievement in the Vacaville community to know that he would be an outstanding city councilman for District 2. I am particularly impressed with Greg’s empathy, compassion, good judgment, teamwork abilities and common sense when working with those less fortunate in this community. He has a warm personality and has the ability to handle his own life experiences with honesty and integrity. One of Greg’s best skills is his ability to recognize that something needs to be done and through delegation and teamwork accomplish that task. Greg has the maturity, leadership skills and self-management skills to be a leader on the Vacaville City Council. He will lead with innovative ideas, integrity and compassion. I urge you to vote for Greg Ritchie for Vacaville City Council District 2. Jeffrey L. Jewell Vacaville

What’s more, he has yet read “This Is How They Tell Me the to appoint a national cyber director, World Ends,” by Nicole Perlroth, a
reporter with The New York Times – a book based on seven years of interviews with hundreds of people engaged in the cyber-arms industry and digital warfare. Perlroth’s chilling account explains how the U.S. lost its early lead in information warfare after legions of the digital sleuths it trained went overseas to teach everyone else what they knew. At a minimum, the U.S. needs to prepare for protracted, dog-eat-dog cyberwarfare that, at best, may involve containment. It’s unlikely that any government will ever win this war, particularly with two superpowers (the U.S. and China) and a trio of dangerous rogue states (Russia, Iran and North Korea) all engaged in the same kind of subterfuge. Perhaps realpolitik explains why Biden is slow-walking his cyberattack response. He may be letting it ride in order to secure Russian cooperation in bringing Iran back into a nuclear arms agreement. He may be giving Russia and China a chance to cooperate because the U.S. cannot fully stem the sophisticated attacks. Or, Biden may prefer a diplomatic solution. But that road is no longer promising. That’s not to say it would be appropriate for him to respond by, say, shutting down part of Moscow’s power grid or upending other networks its citizens rely on. Such an escalation would only invite a heightened response. On the other hand, there’s precedence for destroying computer networks that Russian intelligence relies on. However this plays out, Biden needs to do better than promise but not deliver actions seen and unseen. Timothy L. O’Brien is a senior columnist for Bloomberg Opinion.

Half From Page One week ago. On Thursday, California will expand eligibility to anyone 16 and older, although the state is also anticipating a significant decline in new doses from the federal government in the coming week, including an 88% decline in doses from the one-and-done Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
Meanwhile, case rates have remained steady, with counties reporting 3,545 new cases Friday for a seven-day average of 2,580 daily cases, according to data tracked by this news organization. Los Angeles County, the largest and hardest hit in the state, reported 712 new Covid-19 cases, followed by Sacramento County with 400 and Kern County with 260. They were followed by Santa Clara, San Diego and San Bernardino counties. Hospitalizations from the deadly virus have also con-

Clinic: Covid-19 From Page One “If everyone gets it, then it will help us all,” said Will Tyndall of Fairfield, a Marine Corps veteran. He served five years from 2013-18 and received the email and thought it would be a good idea to come down and get the Covid-19 vaccine. “Rather than waiting for another time it would be best just to get it done,” he said. The past year dealing with Covid-19 was not as bad for Tyndall as others, he said. He went to remote work and very few activities. “I was not doing much anyhow,” he said. The VA Northern California Health Care System is now offering Covid-19 vaccinations to anyone who served in the military, caregivers or spouses, and some other beneficiaries under the authority granted by the Save Lives Act, signed into law March 24 by President Joe Biden, according to the website for the VA vaccination program. All those serving in the military are also eligible to receive the vaccines. For those who could not make it to the clinic Saturday in Fairfield, other clinics are available in Northern California that eligible people may go to for the vaccine. They include: n Sacramento VA Medical Center: 9 a.m. to noon Monday through Friday and a driveup clinic from 9 a.m. to
1 p.m. April 24 at Building 650, first floor, near the cashier’s office. The driveup clinic is at the corner of Peter A. McCuen Boulevard and Femoyer Street. n Martinez VA Medical Center: 8 a.m. to noon Tuesday, Thursday and April 19. n Chico VA Clinic: Noon to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. n Redding VA Clinic: 8 a.m. to noon Saturday. For the continued health and safety of veterans during the pandemic, people are asked not to come to a VA health facility to request a Covid-19 vaccine without an appointment unless they are coming to a specific scheduled event such as a walk-in clinic or drivethru clinic that does not require an appointment. Veterans enrolled in VA health care may request an appointment by sending a secure message in My HealtheVet to COVID VACCINE SCHEDULING – NCHCS or by calling 1-800 -382-8387 and selecting Option 8. Information needed to register includes the vaccine recipient’s name (last, first, middle initial); whether the person to be vaccinated is a spouse, caregiver or unenrolled veteran; Social Security number; date of birth; if the spouse of a veteran, the veteran’s Social Security number; address; cellphone/home and phone number. The call center is open from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays.

Biden From Page One that required asylum seekers to wait in border cities like Tijuana during their U.S. immigration court cases that would decide whether they qualified for protection, and his administration has actively worked to wind it down. Asylum seekers in the program reported being kidnapped and assaulted while waiting in northern Mexico, where migrants are often seen as vulnerable targets for cartels and other criminal organizations. But the expulsion policy, which began under Trump during the pandemic and is known widely as Title 42, puts Central American asylum seekers in the same places that Remain in Mexico did, though without any access to request protection in the United States. There are no court hearings. There are no official steps that expelled migrants can take to begin the asylum screening process. Both the Trump administration and the Biden administration have said Title 42 is necessary to minimize the amount of time that people spend in Border Patrol holding cells during the pandemic. Biden has taken the additional step of flying some families to San Diego in order to expel them to a city they do not know that is hundreds of miles from where they crossed into the United States. That is in response to increased crossings, particularly in east Texas, where the cor-

responding Mexican state of Tamaulipas has refused to accept some families back, especially if they have young children. The White House deferred to the Department of Homeland Security when asked to comment on the flights. DHS did not respond to a request for comment. Some families that cross in that part of Texas are being released to loved ones in the United States because of the Tamaulipas policy. As word has spread that some are able to get in there, crossings increased in the Rio Grande Valley region, which was already historically a common crossing place. The number of family members caught by Border Patrol last month, nearly 53,000, is just under the number apprehended in March 2019, according to data from Customs and Border Protection analyzed by The San Diego Union-Tribune. More than half of the parents and children caught by Border Patrol so far this fiscal year crossed in the Rio Grande Valley Sector, which is responsible for roughly 15% of the U.S.-Mexico border. The overall number of apprehensions at the border was at a 20-year high for monthly arrivals in March, mostly because of an increase in single adults crossing, often multiple times. The number of unaccompanied children apprehended along the border was also the highest monthly total since CBP began tracking child crossings in fiscal 2010. Just 2% of families caught crossing in March
were apprehended by San Diego Border Patrol agents, so they are receiving busloads of migrants from Arizona and flights from Texas for processing. While asylum seekers on the buses from Arizona generally appear to be released into the United States, many on the flights end up expelled. “The border is not open and CBP is still operating under Centers for Disease Control guidelines for the Covid-19 pandemic,” said Jeffery Stephenson, an agent and spokesman with the San Diego Sector of Border Patrol. “CBP is making every effort to remain within CDC guidelines and mitigate long periods of processing and holding to minimize potential exposure to our workforce, those in custody, and the community. Once processing is complete, these individuals will be expeditiously transferred out of CBP custody.” On Thursday morning, after a charter plane from Brownsville landed at San Diego International Airport and moved to the side of a runway, many parents could be seen carrying their children down the stairs and then boarding three waiting white prison buses. One bus drove straight to the border. The other two appeared to exit for the Chula Vista Border Patrol station. Many of the expelled families ended up at Templo Embajadores de Jesus, a shelter at a church in a canyon in Tijuana once known for housing Haitian migrants. Mexican immigration officials bring them to
the shelter in packed vans every day. When they arrive, Pastor Gustavo Banda Aceves gives an opening welcome. He often starts by asking, “Do you know what country you’re in?” Many are surprised to find out that they’re in Tijuana. Sometimes they cry, Banda Aceves said. On Thursday morning, his shelter was home to roughly 700 people – parents and their children who had been expelled from the flights – with just under 50 arriving in two Mexican immigration vans in the early afternoon and more expected before the day was over. Even when his shelter has reached capacity, Banda Aceves said, if there are more people expelled that day, he agrees to take them because he doesn’t want them to end up on the street. He criticized Mexico for being willing to participate in the expulsions without giving support to those expelled. But more than anything, he pointed to Biden’s promise of building a humane asylum system and wanted to know when that would begin. “This isn’t a policy – it’s a game of chance,” Banda Aceves said. “I can’t help them because there’s no path. We just have to wait to see what Joe Biden says.” Dozens of the expelled parents told The San Diego Union-Tribune similar stories about their recent experience in the United States. Over and over again, they came back to the same phrase: “Nos engañaron.” They tricked us.

Stressors of stress on your body Mayo Clinic News Network Stress symptoms may be affecting your health, even though you might not realize it. You may think illness is to blame for that irritating headache, your frequent insomnia or your decreased productivity at work. But stress may actually be the cause.
Common effects of stress Stress symptoms can affect your body, your thoughts and your behavior. Being able to recognize common stress symptoms can help you manage them. Stress that’s left unchecked can contribute to many health problems, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity and diabetes. On your body: Headache, muscle tension or pain, chest pain, fatigue, change in sex drive, stomach upset, sleep problems.
On your mood: Anxiety, restlessness, lack of motivation or focus, feeling irritaoverwhelmed, bility or anger, sadness or depression. On your behavior: Overeating or undereating, angry outbursts, drug or alcohol misuse, tobacco use, social withdrawal, exercising less often.
Aim to find active ways to manage your stress. Inactive ways – such as watching television, surfing the internet or playing video games – may increase your stress. And be sure to get plenty of sleep and eat a healthy, balanced diet. Avoid tobacco use and excess caffeine and alcohol.
Act to manage stress
When to seek help
If you have stress symptoms, taking steps to manage your stress can have many health benefits. Explore these strategies: n Getting regular physical activity. n Practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing, meditation, yoga, tai chi or massage. n Keeping a sense of humor. n Spending time with family and friends. n Setting aside time for hobbies, such as reading a book or listening to music.
If you’re not sure if stress is the cause, see your doctor. Your healthcare provider may want to check for other potential causes. Or consider seeing a professional counselor or therapist. Also, get emergency help immediately if you have chest pain, especially if you also have shortness of breath, jaw or back pain, pain radiating into your shoulder and arm, sweating, dizziness or nausea. These may be warning signs of a heart attack.

April is Stress Awareness Month. “heart trouble.” What if the individual smokes, and is out of shape, and has a family history of premature heart disease? The presumption statutes are theoretically rebuttable, leading to legal back-andforth wrangling. As a qualified medical evaluator in California, I see office workers who describe having strokes or heart attacks due to not getting along well with supervisors, having heavy workloads, getting bad annual evaluations and other stressors. The Presumption Statutes, however, do not apply to office workers assigned to cubicles. Moreover, a believable claim must involve a plausible mechanism of injury. Stress, like love, is in the eye of the beholder. Wim Hof, an “eccentric Dutchman” described by Betsy Morris in The Wall Street Journal (March 23,
2021), advocates swimming in icy water to relieve stress. Dying of a heart attack under such circumstances is a possibility. Hof almost drowned after losing his orientation while ice diving. He is apparently stress-free, though, having cheated death. Exercise decreases heart attack risk longterm but increases the risk of acute events. Epinephrine levels rise with exercise, desensitizing us to stress hormone effects. Consult your doctor for specific advice. I often recommend a “start low, go slow” approach to exercise. Scott T.

Powell secured the property in 2016, opened in 2019 and have survived the Covid-19 pandemic. The response was wonderful, Tiffanie Powell said. “We are doing so well, we wonder, ‘How fast and how long can we ride this train?’ We are doing well. The customers love it,” she said. They closed for a few weeks when Covid-19 hit and then began to offer takeout. “This is a hidden gem,” Tony Powell said of the Suisun Valley. It was his neighbors in the gem who helped the couple pull through the tough times, he said. Tony Powell moved to Fairfield in 2001. Tiffanie Powell followed. They are wed and have a son, 13, and daughter, 4. The venue is family friendly, even offering communal quarter boxes so young visitors can take a ride on one, or both, of the coin-operated horses. The vibe is casual. Tiffanie Powell said she knows most customers by name. And, there is always someone to chat with. There’s also a double-decker bus on site, which offers additional outdoor seating. It originated in the United Kingdom and worked as a tour bus in San Francisco before it was retired, Tony Powell said.

Ken Ruta has spent more than 70 years in show business. He will share some stories in a Friday interview.
FAIRFIELD — American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco will host an interview Friday with veteran actor Ken Ruta. He will be interviewed by Tony Award-winner and ACT Artistic Director Pam MacKinnon as part of “Virtually Speaking,” a series of in-depth conversations with prominent icons of the industry. Ruta will share stories and anecdotes from throughout his seven-decade career in the theater. “Virtually Speaking” kicked off in November with a conversation with Annette Bening, a four-time
Academy Award nominee and ACT Conservatory alum. “I’m excited to talk to Ken, an original ACT acting company member,” MacKinnon said in a press release. “From 1967 in ‘Tartuffe’ to now as Jacob Marley in ‘A Christmas Carol,’ Ken has delighted and wowed San Francisco Bay Area audiences with his work on the Geary stage. He has also taught several generations of acting students. I am always impressed by his optimism and attention, and his love of story, character and craft.” Ruta has worked on more than 70 productions, making his ACT debut at The Geary Theater in 1967. He is a founding member of Cincin-
nati Playhouse in the Park and served for 12 seasons as actor, teacher and associate artistic director at the Guthrie Theater. His 72 years of performing include work with Lyric Opera of Chicago, Minnesota Orchestra and the San Francisco Symphony. He performed the role of Scrooge in ACT’s original “A Christmas Carol” (1989-91), and returned to the role of Marley in the 2005 production, while continuing as narrator (on tape) for more than 20 years with the Center REPertory’s “A Christmas Carol.” Tickets can be purchased at act-sf.org or by calling 415-749-2228.

SF Ballet to stream Balanchine’s ‘Jewels’ Daily Republic Staff
drnews@dailyrepublic.net
FAIRFIELD — The San Francisco Ballet streams George Balanchine’s “Jewels” through April 21. It features newly captured “Emeralds” to accompany archival recordings of “Rubies” and “Diamonds.” It was filmed on stage in January at the War Memorial Opera House. The show is in memory of Elyse Borne, a leading Balanchine répétiteur who staged dozens of ballets
for the company, beginning in 1996 with Balanchine’s “Concerto Barocco.” Borne died in December 2019, shortly after rehearsing “Jewels” with the San Francisco Ballet to prepare for live performance in the 2020 season. She joined the San Francisco Ballet as a ballet master in 1997 after working with companies around the world. Inspired by the designs of jeweler Van Cleef & Arpels, “Jewels” was last seen in full at the San Francisco Ballet in 2009. It premiered in 1967 at the
New York City Ballet and consists of three one-act ballets that span the musical and balletic traditions of France (“Emeralds”), the United States (“Rubies”) and Russia (“Diamonds”). “Rubies” is set to the irregular, modernist, jazz-inspired “Capriccio for Piano and Orchestra” by Igor Stravinsky. “Diamonds” invokes memories of Imperial Russia in a display of classical ballet and is set to Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 3 in D Major. The San Francisco Ballet orchestra performs in each ballet.
Tickets and packages may be purchased at www.sfballet. org. For more information, call ticket services at 415865-2000 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. The San Francisco Ballet will host “Celebrating Jewels” via Zoom at 1 p.m. Saturday. It unites former New York City Ballet principal dancers Kay Mazzo, Mimi Paul and Edward Villella, alongside Helgi Tomasson, to discuss their memories and insight into the iconic ballet.

Rodriguez baseball hammers Wood in MEL action Daily Republic Staff
drnews@dailyrepublic.net
VACAVILLE — The Mustangs played a big game of small ball in a 19-0 pummeling of the host Will C. Wood baseball team Thursday. Of the 19 hits Rodriguez had, only three were extra-base hits: triples by Robert Searcy, who was 3-for-3 with three runs and an RBI, and Gavin Arpais, who had two hits and four RBIs; while leadoff hitter Kyle Sandner had a double
Local report as part of his two hits. He also drove home a pair. Lost in all the offense, perhaps, was the fiveinning shutout tossed by sophomore Nathan Schikore, who struck out six. His scorekeeper had the Wildcats (4-2, 4-2) with four hits. Wood’s scorekeeper listed seven. Also contributing at the plate for Rodriguez (6-1, 5-1) was Joseph Williams with two hits
and two RBIs; Trentin Schmidt knocked in three runs; Jason Booker had two RBIs; Landon Troutt was 2-for-3; and the Mustangs got single RBIs from Kaden Wilde, Suraj Takhar, Colin Medeiros and Christopher Lang. James Reed was 2-for-3 for Fairfield. Jarren Ford doubled.
Vanden gets pitching gem to defeat Armijo FAIRFIELD — Senior
hurler Dylan Simmons scattered four hits over seven innings and struck out 13 at home Thursday to lead the Vikings to an 8-1 win over Armijo. Simmons lost the shutout bid in the seventh when the Royals (0-6-1, 06 MEL) scored an unearned run. Jack Tranchina provided the offensive punch for Vanden (6-1, 6-0 MEL), blasting a home run and knocking in three runs. Marcellus Cueva had a
double among his two hits, added an RBI and scored three times. Jack Books also crossed the plate three times and Jason Olsen lined a double. Rob Rualo had three of Armijo’s hits and scored the lone run.
Vacaville powers its way to MEL win FAIRFIELD — JJ Menesini drove in two runs with two hits, one a double, and eight of the
nine batters Vacaville sent to plate got at least one hit in a 13-3 Monticello Empire League win Thursday at Fairfield. Rocky Vidal was 3-for-4 with an RBI and scored three times, Tyler Sutton tripled as part of a 2-for-3 day and drove in a run, and Finn Chapman also had a pair of hits for the Bulldogs (3-7, 3-3 MEL), who also got single RBIs from Jordan Florendo, Blake Bozzini and Austin See Local, Page B4
Crawford’s homer powers Giants past Rockies, 4-3 Tribune Content Agency SAN FRANCISCO — Brandon Crawford delivered the big blow for the second consecutive day Saturday, hitting a threerun home run in the sixth inning to help provide the Giants a 4-3 win over the Colorado Rockies at Oracle Park. Crawford’s bases loaded double on opening day gave Johnny Cueto all he needed to win Friday. Saturday’s long ball was Crawford’s first home run of the season for the Giants, who improved to 5-3. Reliever Caleb Baragar, the first of four relievers after starter Logan Webb went five innings, got the win to improve to 2-0. Baragar was followed by scoreless innings from Reyes Moronta, Tyler Rogers and finally Jake McGee for his fourth save to send a crowd of 6,176 home happy. Crawford’s blast to right field came against reliever Ben Bowden (0-1), who came on in relief of starter Chi Chi Gonzalez. Bowden walked both Alex Dickerson and pinch-hitter Wilmer Flores to bring up Crawford, who up to that point was 0 for 10 against lefthanded pitching. Crawford teed off on a 3-2 pitch, sending it in to the arcade and giving the Giants a one-run lead. Gonzalez pitched five innings and gave up four hits and one earned run with three walks and a
strikeout. Colorado fell to 3-6 with the loss. Colorado took a 3-1 lead against Webb in the fifth inning on Ryan McMahon’s tworun, two-out home run to center field. McMahon’s blast scored Rodriguez, who hit a one-out single from the No. 9 hole. That was it for Webb, who walked two and struck out six in five innings and kept the Giants’ streak alive of having their starter go at least five innings and give up three or fewer runs in every game this season. The Rockies tied it in the top of the fourth against Webb on Raimel Tapia’s run-scoring single. It scored Charlie Blackmon, who reached on a one-out double. Dickerson’s bloop single to left drove in Tommy LaStella in the bottom of the third with the first run of the game. LaStella, who missed Friday’s game with a sore back, led off with a double to left center and was followed by a line out by Mike Yastrzemski. Then Dickerson, who in his first at-bat lined out to Colorado first baseman C.J. Cron, hit a flare which dropped in between left fielder Tapia and Josh Fuentes at third. LaStella, running all the way, scored easily. Evan Longoria followed with a single to left, with Dickerson thrown out at third in a bit of dubious base running with no slide.

Vacaville ‘runs’ up score on Rodriguez under Friday night lights
Todd R. Hansen
thansen@dailyrepublic.net
VACAVILLE — It’s the kind of sports cliché that has a real purpose for coaches: “Forget about the last play; get the next one.” Vacaville High running back Darian Leon-Guerrero probably heard more than one version of that when a pass deflected off his hands and right into the waiting grasp of Rodriguez defensive back Marcell Struggs-Anderson, who raced 65 yards down the left sideline for a touchdown. Miles Meadows hit Anthony Home on the 2-point conversion
and the Mustangs (2-2, 1-2) were up 8-0 with less than 2 minutes gone into the game at Tom Zunino Stadium in Vacaville. Leon-Guerrero got the next play and then some, rushing for 298 yards on 18 carries and touchdown runs of 33, 49, 33, 1 and 74 to lead the Bulldogs (4-0, 3-0) to a convincing 63-8 Monticello Empire League victory. Leon-Guerrero also showed he can catch the ball, hauling in a team-leading two receptions for 40 yards, taking his total offensive output to 338 yards. The Bulldogs as a team finished with 366. The Vaca defense was equally
impressive, holding the Mustangs, who were coming off a 64-20 victory over Vallejo, to 224 yards of offense. The Bulldogs, who forced five turnovers in last week’s win over Vanden, collected six more against Rodriguez: two fumble recoveries and four interceptions. Timothy Plowman had two of the picks, one of which he returned 25 yards for Vaca’s sixth touchdown of the game, and one of four the Bulldogs put up in the second period to build a 49-8 lead at halftime. Lucca Sartorio and Fernando Gonzalez had the other interceptions.

Saturday morning after winning just their second game in nine tries, Chapman didn’t waver on his preseason projection. “I’m still confident in our team,” Chapman said. “I know what our team is capable of, we had a few guys go down with some injuries but we played two really good baseball teams and I was very confident in our team at the beginning of the year and I still am.” That confidence is starting to come to fruition. After struggling to find a win against the Houston Astros this year, the A’s went to Houston and snatched their first series win with a
7-3 victory over the Astros at Minute Maid Park on Saturday afternoon. A once stagnant offense rolled Friday’s momentum into Saturday’s rubber match against Jose Urquidy. Singles by Ramón Laureano, Jed Lowrie and Matt Olson resulted in the A’s first run, and Sean Murphy added on with an RBI single — his first hit of the season. They pieced together a two-out rally the following inning when Mark Canha knocked a single and Laureano crushed a home run 415 feet with a 106.5 exit velocity to extend their lead to 4-0. That was plenty of cushion for starter Frankie Montas, who cruised through six scoreless innings — only allowing one hit and one walk to the last 13 batters he faced before giving up a solo home run to See A’s, Page B4

Matsuyama charges to Masters lead Tribune Content Agency
Curtis Compton/Atlanta Journal-Constitution/TNS
Hideki Matsuyama is all smiles after he made an eagle putt on the 15th green during the third round of the Masters in Augusta, Georgia, Saturday.
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Hideki Matsuyama first experienced the Masters Tournament as a 19-yearold amateur in 2011, thanks to an invitation extended to the winner of the AsiaPacific Amateur. The stocky kid with the slow backswing made the cut at the Augusta National Golf Club and was the low amateur, finishing tied for 27th at 1-under-par 287. That began a love affair with the tournament and the course. He has missed only one cut in 10 starts and has five top-20 finishes, two among the top 10. All that’s left is to win one and the current Japanese standard-bearer in professional golf and a fivetime PGA Tour winner took a huge step towards that quest on Saturday when he charged from three shots off the lead at the start of the day to fire
a stylish bogey-free 65 and take a four-shot lead at 11-under-par 205. Matsuyama, ranked 25th in the world and a winner of two World Golf Championships, has the only round without a bogey at Augusta National so far this week. “I wouldn’t have believed it,” he said through an interpreter. “But I did play well today. My game plan was carried out and hopefully tomorrow I can continue good form.” Xander Schauffele (68), who played with Matsuyama and matched eagles with him at the par-5 15th hole, Marc Leishman (70) and the final twosome of the day, Justin Rose (72) and Will Zalatoris (71) are tied at 7-under. Rose was the 18and 36-hole leader and birdied his first two holes. However, he See Masters, Page B4

Masters: Matsuyama gets bogey-free 65 From Page B3 followed that with bogeys at Nos. 4 and 5. Corey Conners (68), who made a hole-in-one at No. 6 is 6-under and Jordan Spieth (72) is 5-under. Matsuyama will begin Sunday’s final round with the weight of a golf-loving nation, indeed, an entire continent on his shoulders: a native of Japan has never won a men’s professional major championship, with legends such as World Golf Hall of Fame member Isao Aoki and the Ozaki brothers trying and falling short. In addition, an Asian has never won the Masters. Matsuyama came the closest in recent years by finishing second to Brooks Koepka in the 2017 U.S. Open at Erin Hills, four shots back. “I have a lot of great memories watching the Masters,” Matsuyama said. “I always dreamed that someday I could play here.” When asked why he’s played the course so well from his first trip, here merely said, “I’m not sure.” Matsuyama began the day with six pars in a row but was the only player among the leaders who managed to avoid a

He birdied No. 7 on a 5-foot putt, then crafted another one at No. 11, punching the ball from the right side under tree branches and running the ball onto the green to within 20 feet, making the putt from there. Matsuyama added a 10-foot putt for birdie at No. 12, bounced back from
a disappointing three-putt par at the 13th, then took the lead at No. 15 with a sparkling approach shot from 205 yards out to within 6 feet, setting up an easy eagle putt. Just before that, Schauffele eagled the hole on a 61-foot putt. Matsuyama added a 10-foot birdie at No. 17 and then escaped with a par at No. 18 after blowing
his second shot from the fairway bunker 20 yards over the green. He bumped a chip to within 3 feet and made the putt.

opportunities to attack the hole placements, which they did with enthusiasm. However, a number of them left opportunities wasted when they couldn’t figure out the green speeds – which slowed considerably. “Just softer, softer and slower,” Schauffele said. “The tricky part was probably hitting your putts hard enough. It was a challenge in a different way.” “The wind kind of died down right when we first got back out there,” Conners said. “The ball wasn’t quite traveling as far. The greens softened up a little bit, the fairways were still rolling.” Matsuyama made the most of the softer course and was 6 under after he returned. Before that, he passed the time during the delay sitting in his courtesy car, playing games on his cell phone. “Nothing special,” he said about waiting out the delay. But he sure was special when he returned, especially since his first shot was the approach under the tree limbs at No. 11. The delay was the first because of dangerous weather since the third round in 2008. Last year’s first round was delayed by heavy rain that didn’t involve lightning. Armijo defeated Will C.

Montas threw primarily sinkers and four-seamers in the first inning, working his way out of a jam by handing Yordan Alvarez his fifth straight strikeout. Montas didn’t go to his splitter much, throwing it nine times total while throwing his slider 21% of the time. The Astros wouldn’t give up the series without a fight. Once Montas departed, Sergio Romo hit a batter and Jose Altuve doubled him home for the Astros’ second run. Jake Diekman was tapped to face left-hander Michael Brantley, who hit Diekman’s first pitch for an RBI triple to cut the A’s lead in half.

How to avoid falling victim to
online car sales scams L
Tribune Content Agency arry Hoover has bought a lot of cars – sight unseen – off the eBay auction website over the years and never had a major problem. “It never crossed my mind that they’d try to defraud me,” he said. And then the Phoenixarea resident made a deal with a South Florida used car dealership that advertised a 2002 Cadillac El Dorado as being in perfect mechanical condition. The dealer persuaded Hoover to wire the $6,500 purchase price directly to him so he could avoid seller fees charged by eBay and PayPal. Now, Hoover has a major problem. He has no El Dorado and no $6,500. And he has no buyer’s protection from eBay. “It’s made me very gun shy about buying a car online,” he said. Experts say all consumers should be gun shy about online vehicle purchases. Online vehicle scams are flourishing in the age of Covid-19, according to a recent study by the Better Business Bureau, and authorities have tracked complaints to dealers in South Florida. Investigators have identified two primary types of online car sales scams. One of the most common is orchestrated by criminals, typically tied to Romanian organized crime syndicates, who post fake car listings on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, eBay Motors and other sites and persuade victims to wire money for cars, motorcycles, ATVs, RVs, and boats that don’t exist. The Better Business Bureau’s Southeast Florida and Caribbean division identified 39 companies that defrauded at least 69 victims out of $866,000 in 2020, according to a bureau study, “Virtual Vehicle Vendor Scams,” released last September.

In several recent lawsuits filed in Broward County, Fla., out-of-state buyers described transactions with South Florida dealers that turned into nightmares: n An Illinois man paid a Hollywood dealer $83,574 for a McLaren luxury car advertised on eBay as “in excellent mechanical condition.” When the car was delivered, he found the check-engine light illuminated, evidence of body work, different paint between the fenders, roof and front doors, frame damage, and ill-fitting doors. n A New York man paid the same dealer $9,699 for a 2005 Mercedes-Benze SL-Class 500 Roadster also listed on eBay as “in excellent mechanical condition.” When it arrived, the trunk was stripped of all

No key, no car, no refund
Follow these rules to avoid getting scammed
At least those buyers got something for their money. Hoover said he was put through a runaround that left him with nothing. Shortly after he sent $6,500 for the El Dorado, Hoover received the vehicle title in the mail that revealed “they got it from some police auction,” he said. After the dealer failed to ship the car as promised, Hoover was told it could not be started because the dealer didn’t have a key to open the driver door. And no one would make the dealer a key because the title was sent to Hoover, the dealer told him. Hoover sent the title back and told the dealer to get it done. Weeks passed. Finally, after numerous phone calls and text messages, Hoover told the dealer to keep the car and the title and send him his money back. The dealer refused, and Hoover hired an attorney. — Melanie Matos Hoover said the ordeal has left him angry for letting himself hardware, including the fasten- get scammed, but the loss hasn’t ers holding the taillights to the affected his ability to work or chassis.

Attorneys who represent clients with car scam claims urge consumers to protect themselves by following a few simple rules: n Never agree to send money for cars listed on eBay Motors outside of eBay and PayPal. “It’s common for them to list the vehicles on eBay but then persuade the buyer to circumvent eBay by wiring the payment directly,” said Fort Lauderdale, Fla.-based attorney Matt McIsaac. But when buyers comply, they lose the right to seek refunds of up to $100,000 through eBay’s Vehicle Protection Program. Among other issues, eBay’s program will cover vehicles that never arrive; have undisclosed liens against a title; have titles that weren’t disclosed as salvage, rebuilt, junk, or flood damaged; or whose odometers were misrepresented by 5,000 miles or more. Vehicles less than 10 years old are covered for undisclosed damage to the engine, transmission or frame when repair costs exceed $1,000 for each component. n If a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. Avoid listings of late-model cars with preposterously low prices. n Don’t rely on the accuracy of a vehicle history report such as Carfax or Auto Check that many dealers provide as a so-called free service, said Josh Feygin, a Hollywoodbased attorney who specializes in claims against dealerships. Information in those reports can be inaccurate or may not include recent wrecks, he said. n Investigate the dealer’s online presence and look for reviews. Don’t accept a 100% positive rating on eBay; that could reflect ratings from other eBay merchants who sold the dealer tools or parts. Go to Yelp, Better Business Bureau, scamguard.com and similar sites and look for bad reviews. “Anyone can buy good reviews,” Feygin said. Detailed negative reviews that tell similar tales are the most reliable. If a dealer has little or no presence online, that could mean the company has
recently changed its name to disassociate itself from multiple negative reviews.” n Spend some money to have the vehicle inspected if you can’t see it personally. Such services can easily be found with an online search for “independent vehicle inspection services” and the city where the vehicle is located. Alternatively, an independent repair shop or dealership that sells the same make and model will likely be able to do the job. Obviously, don’t allow the seller to arrange the inspection. Have the inspection report delivered to you. If a seller makes excuses for why a vehicle can’t be made available for an inspection, immediately cease contact with that seller. n Demand to see the title. You’ll be able to determine the previous owner, mileage when last sold, and whether the title is branded as salvage or rebuilt. A salvage designation typically means the vehicle has been in a wreck and sustained damage that an insurer determined would cost more than 80% of the vehicle’s market value to repair. If a dealer sells a car with a salvage title, that means they failed to make the necessary repairs to get the title rebranded as rebuilt. The seller should have no legitimate reason not to let you inspect the title. Have the seller take digital photos of the front and back of the title, along with a photo of the vehicle’s VIN number. Make sure they match.
Excitement clouds common sense While these rules might seem like common sense, it’s easy to forget them when you become excited about that perfect vehicle. That’s the mistake Mellanie Matos made when she found the van she wanted for her mobile grooming business. “I think I acted too fast,” she said. “I didn’t look at reviews so I didn’t know what type of business I was going to when I bought the vehicle. When you get excited, your brain blocks your critical thinking.” Larry Hoover, meanwhile, says he’ll approach any future online purchases with a healthy paranoia. “I always thought I’d never fall for a scam,” he said. “No matter how safe you might think the transaction is, or how fraudsavvy you think you are, you can still get scammed.”

Travis helps move Covid patient Air Force News Service
Spotlight on Travis
JOINT BASE LEWISMCCHORD, Wash. — The 62nd Airlift Wing’s quick action enabled a Covid-19 patient to be airlifted from Joint Base LewisMcChord, Washington, to San Antonio Military Medical Center, Texas, March 31. The individual was a patient at Madigan Army Medical Center at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. The individual was in severe respiratory distress and had undergone surgery earlier to be hooked up to an extracorporeal membrane
oxygenation system. The system pumps and oxygenates a patient’s blood outside the body, allowing the heart and lungs to rest. Earlier that day, an aircrew made up of airmen from the 4th and 7th Airlift Squadrons picked up an aeromedical evacuation team from the 775th Expeditionary Aeromedical Evacuation flight at Travis Air Force Base. The evacuation team are experts in and caring for patients during flights. “The timing (of loading and takeoff) is a little more flexible (with an aeromedical flight) than
it normally is just based on the needs of the mission,” said Maj. Ian Scott, 4th Airlift Squadron pilot. “The biggest thing we have to be mindful of (with mission planning for an aeromedical evacuation flight) is what type of restrictions the patient’s condition would have on the environment in the airplane.” The patient was being transported to San Antonio Military Medical Center, where there are more available people who are experts on the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

The patient arrived at the aircraft with several additional medical professionals from Madigan trained in keeping the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation system running.

Gen. Duke Richardson, Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, Technology Logistics military deputy, presented the F-15EX during an unveiling and naming ceremony at Eglin Air Force Base, April 7. “Undefeated in aerial combat, the F-15 Eagle epitomized air superiority in the minds of our enemies, allies, and the American people for over 45 years, but it was not meant to fly forever. We heard the demand signal from our warfighters,” Richardson said. “I’m pleased to say we’ve responded boldly and decisively, with a proven platform that’s modernized and optimized to maintain air superiority now and into the future.” The ceremony celebrated the historic arrival of the dynamic new fighter aircraft. This process began several years ago, as a combined Air Force effort to bring the best in response capability.

Striking balance
Benicia guardsman manages work, life California National Guard Public Affairs BENICIA — U.S. Army Spc. Kalaya Lee is a traditional California National Guard member, where she is a food services specialist with the 749th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion in Benicia. She’s on full time orders in support of the California Military Department’s Covid-19 response working at Joint Task Force 749 providing administrative support. Lee is also on a path to obtain her bachelor’s degree in kinesiology from Holy Names University, possibly a year earlier than expected. “I just found out that my student adviser messed up and thought
I was a transfer student. So, my school thought I started in the 2018-19,” said Lee, “But I actually started in 2019-20 and they currently have me on track to possibly graduate in 2022.” For Lee to make this abbreviated deadline, she’ll have to take 17 units for the next three semesters: summer 2021, fall 2021 and spring 2022. That sounds like a lot, but considering she’s currently enrolled in 19 units this semester, she’s used to the challenges. Lee is not only wellversed in the challenges of handling a full-time school schedule, but she’s also well practiced in the act of balancing said school schedule with a full-time work schedule. Lee works on average
40 to 45 hours a week at the task force, and she also has anywhere between 45-50 hours of schoolwork per week. What’s her secret to maintaining this arduous schedule? It’s all about time management. “What I do is I just write everything down, I have a little calendar book and in the little boxes I will write everything: meetings, school, workouts, work deadlines. I have reminders set on my phone. I just try to be organized as much as possible,” said Lee. “With everything that is associated with school and work, it can be overwhelming and stressful, but by just simply writing things down and being organized I don’t feel stressed out by the circumstances.” With
her impeccable time management skills, she explains that having a supervisor who is understanding and is willing to work with her school schedule is quite helpful. “My supervisor says work comes first, but when there’s any downtime, 1st Sgt. Gomez says I can use that time toward my studies.” Having both a fulltime school and work schedule can be daunting to the uninitiated, but for Lee working and making strides towards her bachelor’s degree is quite rewarding. “It’s great what we’re doing, it’s inspiring what we’re doing, it’s also good money,” Lee says with a smile, “But I’m getting closer and closer to my graduation date and the grind doesn’t stop.”

ARLINGTON, Va. — The Department of Defense is one of the largest consumers of energy, and relies heavily on fossil fuels to meet national security objectives. The way energy is generated, transmitted, stored and used today is both a paramount combat enabler as well as a potentially crippling vulnerability. History leads us to conclude that future wars may be fuel-limited environments. Critical infrastructure such as refineries, storage tanks and distribution networks presents lucrative targets to an adversary. Yet, the Air Force’s energy needs continue to grow. The reliance on fossil fuels leads to physical and geopolitical challenges in the security landscape, while alternative energy sources pose other challenges of their own. As the Air Force continues to reorient itself for great-power competition, the need to build more resilient energy infrastructure and supply chains has become increasingly urgent. The time has come to reimagine usage, generation, transportation and storage of energy. To address these challenges, the Air Force Warfighting Integration Capability, now known as AF Futures, Disruptive Technology Team, in partnership with Afwerx, launched the Reimagining Energy for the Department of Defense Challenge Sept. 2, 2020. The Energy Challenge, an open crowdsourcing initiative, sought solutions to innovatively shape the future of resilient energy production, transmission, use and storage, thereby reducing demand and reliance on fossil fuels, while modernizing the energy infrastructure. Solutions ranged from those that could be implemented immediately, some that required further development, while others were “moonshot” ideas that may or may not be implemented until 2045. “The disruption of the energy sector is already happening. There’s unbelievable innovation occurring in how we produce, transmit and store energy,” said Col. Charles Bris-Bois, Air Force Disruptive Technology Team. “The (Department of Defense) must partner with those leading this disruption in both industry and academia to ensure we maintain our competitive advantage.” The opportunity to partner with other Air Force organizations in the energy space grew with the See Energy, Page B7

Paul Blycheck, 775th Expeditionary Aeromedical Evacuation flight medical crew director. “We have to consider the safety of the patient, and everyone involved – the (aeromedical evacuation) crew, the pilots and loadmasters – especially when it’s something contagious, like Covid-19.” The patient was hooked up to a full ventilator, in addition to the extracorporeal membrane system, oxygenation so anything they were breathing out was contained, Blycheck said. The crew successfully took off later that night and
inclusion of the Air Force Research Laboratory Transformational Capabilities Office, Air Force Research Laboratory Advanced Power Technology Office and Secretary of the Air Force Installations, Environment and Energy. This proved to be an excellent partnership addition, consisting of the primary Air Force organizations that are focused on reshaping and identifying energy technologies for the future. The Energy Challenge’s open call for topics garnered 903 submissions, of which 179 finalists were invited to present their ideas to expert reviewers from across the government, making it the largest Afwerx challenge to date. The culminating event was a virtual showcase held Feb. 9. The event was intro-

duced by deputy chief of staff for Strategy, Integration and Requirements, Lt. Gen. S. Clinton Hinote, who highlighted the importance of the Energy Challenge, noting, “we need a mindshift of the way we are thinking about alternative forms of energy.” The showcase included 1,895 participants from industry, government, academia and advocacy groups, and a program that included six keynote speakers, 10 technical panels and multiple networking sessions. The breadth and depth of the proposed solutions provided by industry covered a wide range of topics to include: fixed and mobile energy generation and storage, energy transmission and distribution, new warfighting and operational equipment, data availability for improved planning and decision making, and energy culture, policy and education.
