Solano applies to LAFCO to merge Cordelia, Vaca rural fire districts Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday unanimously supported filing an application to LAFCO to reorganize the Cordelia and Vacaville fire prevention districts into a single district.

Board Chairman John Vasquez said the county has a “moral responsibility” to improve fire protection resiliency and stability, and Supervisor Jim Spering said the county does “not have the luxury of looking the other way.”

The plan includes detaching a large section of the Suisun Fire Protection District’s north area into the newly formed district as well.

The two district boards have already signed an operational and services agreement by which Vacaville Chief Howard Wood oversees both agencies.

Vacaville is also supporting

both districts’ maintenance, code enforcement and other services.

Vasquez and Spering, who are driving the consolidation effort, have indicated that Suisun will be made whole from any lost tax revenues due to the reorganization.

However, Vasquez and Spering would ultimately like to see Suisun become part of the newly formed district, and in time, add Montezuma.

“We are going to do everything we can to bring Suisun into this,” Spering said, adding that he is hopeful this step will help Suisun to move in that direction.

A study commissioned by the Local Agency Formation Commission concluded that the Cordelia, Vacaville, Suisun and Montezuma rural fire districts should merge for long-term financial stability.

The rural districts’ financial situations have been described as operating under 21st century costs

with a 1970s fiscal model.

The 142-page Citygate report offered more than threedozen findings and a series of recommendations.

But there are those who believe the consolidation effort is more window dressing than solution for the real issue, which is wildfire prevention and protection.

The general consensus is that while a merger will create some savings in administrative efficiencies, the primary challenges facing the districts – personnel-related costs, response efficiencies over a large area, first-line defense of the wildlands-urban interface area and a revenue structure that cannot keep up with costs – will not change.

For that, most everyone agrees, a new funding source will be needed. Vasquez and Spering have not committed to a particular kind of funding source, saying they want See Rural, Page A10

Solano supervisors not ready for ‘equity training’ quite yet Todd R. Hansen

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County supervisors were not willing Tuesday to commit to a specific equity training option that had the full support of Supervisor Erin Hannigan and human resource leadership.

But the other board members were more cautious, ranging from Supervisor Monica Brown suggesting it should be a voluntary choice by each

member, to board Chairman John Vasquez saying he is not convinced the proposed training is the right training.

The proposal was to have Jei Africa, direc-

tor of Marin County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services, conduct a series of equity training workshops the board members could attend with county administrators and line supervisors, but without creating a quorum.

Africa has a background of providing similar training for other county boards as well as the California State Association of Counties.

Supervisors Mitch Mashburn and Jim Spering said they did not feel like they had enough information about the training and what other options might be out there.

Mashburn likened it to trying to fix a plane while flying it.

The board received input from callers on both sides of the issue, with some believing equity training is essential for

FAIRFIELD — Dr. Bela Matyas announced Tuesday that six positive tests of the highly transmissible delta strain of the novel coronavirus have been found in Solano County.

None of the six individuals has become particularly ill, Matyas emphasized, but matyas he also noted that those individuals felt the need to come in to be checked.

“Nonetheless, it is spreading in the county,” said Matyas, who added that the county is testing every positive coronavirus result for that

particular stain.

The details of the individuals – gender, ages and areas of residency – were not available. Nor did Matyas know whether any of the individuals had been vaccinated.

Matyas is on record as saying the best defense against the delta strain or any other coronavirus strain is to be vaccinated, and that the higher number of residents who get vaccinated, the lower the risk the virus can be spread.

The last county report shows 53% of residents 12 or older are fully vaccinated, and 65% of that population has received at least one shot.

Bertani mentioned “her previous concerns that she continues to have.”

Moy shared information at the June 1 meeting from allegations connected with the Showcase application for a cannabis facility in San Francisco, on which the company was accused of falsifying signatures.

The San Francisco Planning Commission approved Showcase but the company ultimately was not given a license.

Dan Sharp of Showcase at the June 1 meeting den ie d t he allegations.

Authentic Fairfield LLC was approved with a 6-1 vote. Bertani dissented again.

There was no public comment. There was also no council comment other than some clarification of the final language and the comments of Bertani as she voted.

Our home was spared, A wildfire had erupted near but dozens were lost.

Big Sur, in a rugged, remote We were not alone. The same part of the Ventana Wilderness nightmare kept replaying all summer with varying details in some 30 miles from our home. forests and towns throughout Air tankers and helicopters

California, and in much of the West. We prayed for ourselves, our loved ones, our friends and neighbors, stayed tuned to news and wore masks for months both for Covid and for smoke.

Hopes for a wet winter ended when the season’s rainfall was one of the driest on record. Still, we thought June would be too soon for a fire. We were wrong.

You know that feeling when life sends you spinning – here we go again? I didn’t want to do it. I didn’t think I could. But here’s one of the many things I keep trying to learn: We don’t need the tickets to take a hard ride until it’s time to get on board.

After seeing the smoke, my husband and I decided to repack the emergency bags we’d packed last summer and had used more than once. Mine was under the bed. I’d forgotten what was in it. Three changes of clothes. A pair of walking shoes.

A week’s worth of meds and toiletries.

We washed the clothes, put them back in the bags, and updated a sack of important papers. Our laptop computers were backed up and most of our photos were on our phones.

Slow as we are, we could grab it all and be out the door in five minutes. Give or take. We were ready. As ready as we could be.

That was yesterday. Today we drove into town to meet my son and his family at the beach where I often took him when he was a little boy. We stayed for an hour, talking and laughing and watching the grandkids play in the surf with their dad.

I wish you could’ve seen them.

Then we went home to have lunch with my husband’s son, who drove from San Francisco to spend the afternoon with us.

It was lovely, as always, to be

with him. When he headed back north, we waved a long goodbye. Then once again, we looked east at the smoke on the horizon.

An hour later, as I sat down to write a column, my mind filled with fires, past and future.

Suddenly I recalled something that made me smile.

Sifting through a drawer, I pulled out a quote I had copied on a scrap of paper. It’s by Mother Teresa: “Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.”

We never need to dwell on our fears, past or future. One is gone. The other may never come. Today is a great day to be alive. And tomorrow? Lord willing, we’ll begin again.

Veteran gardener starts over and ends up with a waterfall Tribune Content Agency PITTSBURGH — After 30 years of work, Marianne Kramer was pleased with her backyard garden in McCandless, Pennsylvania. She had carefully planted perennials and annuals in beds around mature trees and shrubs and a railroad-tie retaining wall.

“We had gorgeous white birch trees and rose of Sharon,” she said.

But the retaining wall was failing, and she and her husband, Fran, had to make a difficult decision: Watch their beautiful landscape roll down the hill or start over with a new garden and a new, longerlasting retaining wall.

They chose the latter and ended up with a spectacular waterfall and three-tiered garden resting on cut sandstone walls.

Mrs. Kramer said the waterfall was not part of MDL Landscape Management’s original plan.

Principals Shane Dablock and Nate Musi were to do only the retaining walls.

“Then Shane said, ‘I can make you a gorgeous waterfal!l’” she recalled.

With only a rough sketch on a piece of paper, the Kramers had to trust Dablock’s vision for a two-stream cataract that tumbles between sandstone boulders and water plants and ends in a hidden reservoir where a powerful pump sends the water back to the top.

It’s called a pondless waterfall and it takes lots of engineering and smart design to pull it off.

“When he said there would be two

The Kramers’ waterfall cascades through boulders and water plants. streams, I got excited,” Mrs. Kramer said.

She admits to some nervous days during the pandemic, watching from their sun room as the MDL crew finished the retaining walls and slowly built the waterfall stone by stone.

The crew checked in regularly with the couple to make sure they were pleased with the work. One day Mrs. Kramer added a new request.

“I said I wanted steps, and he said, ‘We’ll have to get more boulders.’”

In the end, they needed 68 tons of boulders, 99 tons of cut sandstone and another 10 tons of stacked stone and river rock. The project took six months, from April to September 2020, and was finished in time for MDL’s landscapers, Mrs. Kramer and her daughter to do fall planting.

The guys planted the trees and big shrubs, including Colorado blue spruce, red and gold thread falsecrypress and hydrangeas, while the women put in daylilies, irises, liriope, coreopsis, sedge, Shasta daisies and other perennials.

In the spring, Mrs.

Kramer added annuals, including impatiens, vinca, geraniums and ‘King Tut’ papyrus along with smaller umbrella grasses ‘Prince Tut’ and ‘Baby Tut.’ She has lots of other interesting specimen plants she picks up on her tour of favorite nurseries and garden centers, including Hahn, Brenckles, Best Feeds and J.E. Mussig Greenhouses in Zelienople.

The veteran gardener enjoys climbing and crossing the waterfall’s stone steps and bridges to tend her plants and play with her grandchildren.

“The top is our perch,” she said. “We have five grandchildren and each one has a boulder.”

Her husband helps where he can – “I’m the pool boy,” he joked — but this garden is her pride and joy, just as the old one was.

“I just love it. I don’t mind getting dirty,” Mrs. Kramer said.

She recalled a man in a car passing by while she was working in the front yard, wearing a ballcap.

“He stopped and asked me what company I worked for. I said, ‘I don’t work for anyone. I work for me, for free!’ ”

Marianne and Fran Kramer pose at the top of the waterfall in their McCandless, Pa., backyard, June 2.

Official: Little transmission risk from using ‘honor system’ for mask regulations Todd R. Hansen

McDonald’s restaurants to host ‘pop-up’ Covid vaccine clinics

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIR F IELD — David Palmer has not been vaccinated for the new coronavirus that causes Covid-19.

“I’m just not convinced the vaccines are safe,” said Palmer, 23, who admits he gets most of his information on the vaccines, and Covid in general, from non-news outlet internet sources.

But Palmer said he is concerned that the vaccines were fast-tracked for use and did not follow the usual approval standards.

Palmer also lies about his vaccine status.

“They asked me if I had been vaccinated (at City Hall), and I told them ‘yes,’ ” Palmer said without specifically identifying which city hall he was referencing. Nor would he identify the city in which he lives.

He was interviewed at the Suisun Harbor as he prepared to launch his kayak.

“I’m not trying to cause any trouble, but I have no symptoms of Covid, or any other illness, so why should I have to wear a mask?” he asked. He said he has felt that way from the start of the pandemic, but has used a bandana when required.

Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said at the level of vaccination the county enjoys now, the risk of transmission from people coming and going from government buildings or businesses is very low.

He said the risk goes up

A pedestrian wearing a face mask walks near North Texas Street in Fairfield, Tuesday. slightly in settings, such as a bar, where people congregate for longer periods of time and are often in close proximity. But even then, most of those individuals would have to be unvaccinated.

“Remember, to spread this disease, you still have to exchange respiratory droplets,” Matyas said.

“The settings that I am more worried about are places where employees spend a lot of time together,” he said, noting food processing and other manufacturing facilities as examples. “And if there is a high percentage of employees who are not vaccinated, there is a greater risk of spreading the disease.”

However, that is different than customers or clients coming into a business, and certainly different than individu-

als passing each other in a grocery store.

Most businesses seem to be using the “honor system” when it comes to masking policies, cleared by the state to allow in without face coverings customers and clients who have been fully vaccinated.

By regulation, those who are not fully vaccinated must still wear face coverings, but generally speaking, no one is being asked to show any kind of proof.

Medical facilities, senior care centers and similar locations of higher risk concerns still require masks for everyone.

Government agencies also are largely using the honor system for their buildings, too.

Solano County reported Monday that 53% of residents 12 or older (199,046) have been fully vaccinated,

and 65% (245,464) have received at least one shot.

The county also reported 55 new cases since Friday’s update, a three-day average of 18.33 cases. Only nine residents were hospitalized with the disease, and the number of active cases fell from 156 Friday to 142 Monday.

Eighteen of the new cases were reported in Vacaville, which took the city’s total to 8,876. Vallejo added 13 cases for a new count of 9,961. Fairfield is at 9,164 after 11 new cases, the county reported.

Suisun City (2,311) added seven cases; Dixon (1,936) added four cases; and Benicia added two to take its total to 1,017. There were no new reports in Rio Vista (394) or in the unincorporated area of the county (103).

Mayor declares Juneteenth a holiday in Suisun City Matt Miller

mmiller@dailyrepublic.net

SUISUN CITY — The significance of the moment wasn’t lost Monday morning on Mayor Lori Wilson, a Black woman sharing a proclamation in her city she signed declaring Juneteenth a holiday.

“I tried not to cry,” Wilson said. “The first African-American woman mayor to be in this space, in this year. It shows progress, hope and good things to come.”

Wilson hosted a short ceremony on the steps of City Hall, but one that was a long time coming for those gathered. Juneteenth, the day that originated in Galveston, Texas, to celebrate the emancipation of all enslaved African-Americans, is now a federal holiday.

Juneteenth’s commemoration is on the anniversary of the June 19, 1865, announcement of General Order No. 3 by Union Army Gen. Gordon Granger. While President Abraham Lincoln had already signed the Emancipation Proclamation, slavery didn’t officially end until Granger proclaimed and enforced the freedom of enslaved people in Texas, which was the last state of the Confederacy with institutional slavery.

President Joe Biden signed into law Thursday Juneteenth National Independence Day. It was the first federal holiday established since 1983 when then-President Ronald Reagan added Martin Luther King Jr. Day on the national calendar.

Ju neteent h wa s Saturday.

“This is an important holiday for all Americans,” Wilson said. “It reconciles our past and is the first step in allowing all of our history to be told

De’rricia Walton delivered a stirring rendition of “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” often referred to as the “Black National Anthem.” Genea Brice, the poet laureate of Vallejo and a resident of Vacaville, also offered an original poem to commemorate the “education and jubilation” of this special day.

“In a word, I’m grate-

ful,” Brice said after the ceremony. “I feel a new purpose and a new energy.

Many of us have celebrated this day all our lives, but to recognize it as a federal holiday is a big deal.”

Wilson held a moment of silence at the end of the celebration to reflect on the past.

“We need to make every person no matter what they look like respected, loved and treated like a human being,” Wilson said.

“Slavery was a real abomination to this country and

there were so many generations lost. And since then, the struggle for equality, the struggle for freedom, the struggle to be seen, we have lost lives.”

Wilson did have a lighter moment at the beginning of the ceremony, telling the crowd that “today I’m the mayor, the sound person, and the set-up person.”

“That’s what happens when you do an event and give the employees a day off at the same time,” she said.

Frazier: State closer to new IDD support Matt Miller

mmiller@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Assemblyman Jim Frazier, long an advocate for those with intellectual and developmental disabilities, said much-needed legislation is on the desk of Gov. Gavin Newsom in the state’s proposed 2021-22 budget.

Frazier, who chairs the select committee on IDD issues, has helped lead the effort in budget legislation. He also delivered two proposed bills earlier this year.

Now possibly more funding is en route to this community in need if the governor gives his OK this week to the full budget.

“It’s the first time that the Assembly and Senate concur on the issue to this degree,” Frazier, D-Fairfield, said in a press release. “The bill is in the governor’s hands. We are just trying to give the IDD community the equal funding that is proper.”

According to the Arc, advocates for people with disabilities since 1950, the

budget includes recommendations to implement a rate study over the next three years, restoration of social recreation and camp services, and creating and funding of a direct frazier support professional certification tied to wage increases.

Also from the Arc, there are investments proposed for regional center service coordinators, performance incentives, language access and cultural competency, Early Start programs, and other “investments and restorations.”

Frazier helped foster Assembly Bill 1417 to partner with community colleges to create a curriculum to bring new levels of training to those who assist the IDD community. The proposed AB 967 also reassesses special education in schools after the Covid-19 pandemic and what is needed to move forward.

“I’ve been involved in

FAIRFIELD FUNERAL HOME

Pre-Arrangements of Funeral & Cremations

Special Olympics for 16 years now, and it’s all about humanity,” Frazier said in the press release. “They are just some of the nicest people you could ever meet.

The IDD community just wants to be treated fairly and know that their lives matter.”

Early Start programs and camps had been cut, Frazier said in the release.

Those who are trained to care for the IDD community are also paid minimum wage, he said, which makes retention and longevity difficult.

Those in the IDD community need consistency and normalcy in their support group, or behavior problems can escalate, he said.

Frazier said in the press release that funding has fallen $3,000 per individual since 1990. He also said the IDD community also gets a quarter of the funding that the prison population does, and that the IDD population has an unemployment rate of

Fairfield police make 3 arrests during checkpoint Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The Police Depar tment teamed up Friday night with Solano County probation officers to conduct a DUI-Driver’s License Checkpoint that resulted in three arrests.

Among the 900 cars screened on Air Base Parkway and Dover Avenue, 24 citations were issued for unlicensed drivers or those with suspended licenses, eight vehicles were towed and three arrests were made.

Two arrests were for suspected impaired driving.

DUI checkpoints are placed in locations based on collision statistics

and frequency of DUI arrests, police report. The deterrent effect of using checkpoints and DUI saturation patrols has proven to lower the number of people killed and injured in alcohol- or drugimpaired crashes.

Research shows that crashes involving an impaired driver can be reduced by up to 20% when well-publicized, proactive DUI operations are conducted routinely, police report.

Police report that drivers caught driving while impaired can expect the impact of the arrest to include jail time, fines, fees, DUI classes, license suspensions and other expenses that can exceed $10,000.

Setting record straight: Fairfield council did act on youth liaison Daily Republic Staff drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The recent appointment of a new Youth Commission member brought back to the surface a Brown Act conflict with how the City Council approved a commission liaison to be part of the appointment interviews.

Originally, the council had acted without the matter being on an agenda, a violation of the open meeting laws.

When the council approved Mayor Harry Price’s appointment to the commission June 15, the background material showed that a

23a3,4,5,8,9 0623.indd 5

sitting member of the commission participated in the interviews.

What was not immediately clear was whether the council had ever properly corrected its original action.

Price had the matter looked into for clarity, and the city provided meeting minutes Monday from Jan. 21, 2020, that shows the council did vote to “allow participation by youth commissioners in the interview of applicants for the Youth Commission by the City Council Appointments Committee.”

The matter had been approved as part of that meeting’s consent agenda.

Vandals strike skatepark at Allan Witt Park with ‘offensive’ graffiti Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The $577,477 newly refurbished skate park at Allan Witt Community Park has been scarred with racial, anti-gay and other offensive graffiti.

“It is pretty sad that over (half-a-million) of taxpayers’ dollars went into refurbishing this park and roughly two months after the re-grand opening to the public, it looks like this,” a person identified as a Fairfield resident noted in an email sent to the Daily Republic.

“It is absolutely frustrating to see that the graffiti that covered the park was painted over during the refurbishing and it is now again being covered by disgusting gestures where you would not want to bring your children here.”

A spokesman for the city said the cost to clean up the graffiti is not yet known, but said it will be cleaned up Tuesday.

He also noted that the city is reviewing security footage in hopes of learning the identities of those responsible for the graffiti.

The local resident who sent the email asked to remain unnamed due to

Robinson Kuntz/Daily Republic

The newly resurfaced skate park at Allan Witt is seen on Monday. the critical nature of the comments. The local resident was also unhappy the city had not cleaned up the graffiti in a more timely fashion.

“Whoever is (maintaining) the park should be ashamed by not painting over the graffiti that keeps growing by the day!

From what I hear from the respectful users of the park (is) that this is one of the best around, so why wouldn’t it be kept that way?” the person stated in the email.

The skatepark renovation was the first phase of the five-year $21 million Allan Witt project, which also included the recently dedicated dog park.

To date, funding has been identified for the first three phases, which includes the skatepark, the dog park ($2.8 million) and the general play area ($3.5 million).

The Allan Witt renovation is an extension of the Heart of Fairfield Plan, planning for which started in 2014 and was adopted

by the City Council in 2017. It also fit into the Community Spaces Initiative, also adopted in 2017.

The nearly 50-acre park is considered in those documents as a key civic area that was in need of modernization to meet the vision for the West Texas and Texas streets downtown corridor.

One of priorities was to reduce crime and blight in the area, city documents state.

Suisun seeks residents’ input on public art Daily Republic Staff drnews@dailyrepublic.net

SUISUN CITY — The city asks residents to complete a very short survey for the next few weeks about their thoughts on art in public places.

Future mini-surveys will center around other quality-of-life issues so the City Council can employ

data-driven decisions to improve the quality of life in Suisun City, according to the press release.

“As a strong believer in the value of art in public spaces, I am very excited about this particular survey,” Mayor Lori Wilson said in a press release. “I hope everyone takes about two minutes out of their schedule to

respond and help build a better community. The topic of a public art fee will be coming to council soon and this will help us gauge the community’s interest.”

The link to the survey is available at https:// cutt.ly/fnUfT6a.

The city last month began a monthly community engagement

mini-survey asking about street-sweeping schedules.

It was evident based on the results of that survey that residents are not well informed about the street-sweeping schedule in their area, according to a city press release.

City staff will look at ways to better inform residents so the city will have cleaner overall streets.

Horoscopes

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

At first glance, it would seem you’re in a mood to take a chance, risk rejection, go for the big spoils. Upon further assessment, this isn’t a mood at all. It’s an orientation built to last.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

The complexity of a relationship will baffle you. Each nuance has meaning split open and reflecting an opposite meaning, like light refracted through crystals, dazzling and disorienting. The conquest is the surrender.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

What you seek is inside yourself, but if you can’t see it and don’t know what it is, so what if you happen to be carrying it around? To recognize the internal quality, you need the external pursuit. Vision requires light from the outside.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

You’ll construct your plan like any master builder, one brick at a time until it’s complete.

It’s a comfort knowing tomorrow you’ll be living in the fruit of today’s effort. Can you also enjoy the labor?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

The sort of work required will be deep and concentrated. It won’t pair well with shallow, vain pursuits. It will be impossible to do this work in a place of distraction, which every place is now, unless you silence your phone.

Daily Cryptoquotes

No. 1: “When you choose your behavior, you choose the consequences of that behavior.”

No. 2: “If you have to cheat to win, you lose much more than you won.”

No. 3: “If you have to put someone down in an effort to make yourself look better, you fail at both.” — Francis D. Dear Annie: The most valuable trait that I inherited from my dad was by far his work ethic. The man went from not having a high school education to being vice president and lobbyist for a major corporation. He started out delivering pharmaceuticals on a motorcycle as a teen, and when my older sister and I were born, he was collecting coins from pay telephones for the telephone company. He was a firm believer that you and only you had to go after whatever you wanted out of life. You may win; you may lose. Not everyone would get the trophy. In the end, fail or succeed (though failing was never a good option), you had the feeling you gave it your best and came out a wiser person for your effort.

I am retired now. My work accomplishments have paralleled his, and I owe my success and my work ethic to my dad. — Florida Kid.

Today’s birthday Your cosmic birthday gift is a kind of magic pen: Any writing tool you pick up will solidify your written wishes in your mind and life. As you nurture existing relationships, your social circle will grow to include, among others, contacts who will help you thrive professionally and/or financially. July investment pays in February 2022. Leo and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 11, 2, 6 and 15.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

There is an uncoordinated, improvised quality to the day’s unfolding, to the point where you might even call it a mess. Lovely things are born of messes, though, and in fact, messiness is just a fact of birth.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Groups are tricky. Shop around to find the right one. A good fit would be a place in which the spirit with which the endeavor is approached harmonizes with the endeavor itself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You have patience with those who seem to need to puff themselves up, posture and jockey for position. Fame and power are what people go for before

they understand what they really crave, which is a union with their own soul.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). The difficulties will clear up in stages. Get interested instead of frustrated. The more curious you are about how things work, the more they will reveal themselves to you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). Constructive daydreaming is a joy and the most productive way to spend your creativity, as long as you keep track of where you’ve traveled on this journey of imagination.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). Roses have thorns.

Chocolate is a bitter bean. The classic love stories involve the tragic longing of lovers who, for some reason, can’t unite. Strip the thorns; add sugar; remove the obstacle. Viva capability!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You want enough order in your environment to allow for unobstructed movement to achievable aims. But don’t expect or even strive for things to be perfect. Too much order is uninspiring and strangely demotivating. Strike a balance.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Born on the cusp of Gemini and Cancer, Frances McDormand has astral influences in both signs. Mercury is expressed in the versatile sign of the twins. Cancer emphasizes nurturing instincts and perhaps psychic ability.

of the auction, and how did South play in six diamonds after West led the heart seven?

South chose not to employ the Michaels Cue-Bid (see yesterday’s column), perhaps because the diamonds were longer and much stronger than the spades. North did well to run from four spades, a contract that would have failed if West had led a minor. Five diamonds was cold, but South, perhaps imagining that his partner had only a singleton spade, moved on to slam.

Any nonheart card would have been successful, but West led his partner’s suit.

Declarer played low from the board and ruffed with the diamond 10. Then he cashed the diamond ace and diamond king, played the diamond four to dummy’s nine and ran the hearts.

His 12 tricks were five hearts, six diamonds and the club ace.

In contrast to the Emmys, the Screen Actors Guild Awards already refers to all of its nominees as actors, adding the words “male” or “female” to establish distinct categories.

The TV Academy, which will hold its 2021 awards ceremony in September, also announced that starting in 2022, it won’t be interested in Oscars’ cast-off documentaries.

DAILY REPUBLIC — Wednesday, June 23, 2021 A9

Lake Solano expects to open fully by end of July Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Lake Solano is opening again.

Except for 11 campsites, the Solano County park is expected to be fully open by the end of July, Chris Drake, the parks manager, told the Board of Supervisors on Tuesday.

“We are not 100%, but we are on our way,” Drake said.

The park, located on Pleasants Valley Road, south of Highway 128, has been open for day use Fridays through Sundays, but after nearly 16 months of being closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic and later the devastating LNU Lightning Complex Fire, normalcy is getting closer.

The park lost 450 trees, and the park service suffered more than $1.5 million in damage, including its maintenance yard, much of its maintenance equipment and ranger quarters. “ Resi l iency has

definitely been the appropriate theme for parks over the past couple of years,” Drake said.

The good news is the Nature Center survived. Restroom facilities, the shower room, a water tank, picnic tables, a propane gas tank and other items also were spared.

The building the Vacaville Fire Protection District uses to house a couple of vehicles – not far from the double-wide trailer – also escaped damage.

The service has nine full-time employees, nine extra-help staff, mostly seasonal, and relies heavily on the volunteers and community partner organizations.

Drake said Sandy Beach is open for day-use and boat launches, as well as camping by reservation.

Belden’s Landing Boat Launch is open except for the fishing pier, which is expected to be open by the end of summer. Lynch Canyon is fully operational.

Solano Parks and Recreation Manager Chris Drake stands above damage done to Lake Solano County Park last year by the LNU Lightning Complex Fire, Feb. 11. super v isors T he adopted a resolution recognizing July as Parks and Recreation Month and July 16 as Park and Recreation Professionals Day in Solano County.

In other action, the board: n Set the 2022-23 Green Valley Open Space Maintenance District assessment at $160 per lot, consistent with the agreement among

the county, Fairfield and Solano Land Trust. n Accepted $16.41 million in unanticipated grant revenue from the state Department of Public Health, Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity Enhancing Detection Expansion funding through the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act

of 2021, and approved a $451,368 appropriation transfer for fiscal year 2020-21 to recognize a portion of that revenue. n Approved a $41.93 million contract with ENGIE Services U.S. Inc. for the energy conservation and conversion project. The action followed a public hearing during which there was no comment. The contract cost is expected to be less than what the county would have paid for energy during the term of the work. n Approved a $274,999 appropriation transfer to recognize unanticipated revenue for I m mu n i zat ion Covid-19 federal supplemental funding through the state Department of Public Health. n Approved a $54,600 Workforce Development Board of Solano County contract amendment with Quali-Serv Janitorial for janitorial,

maintenance and facilities services, extending the contract through June 30, 2022. The total contract is $109,200. n Authorize the Public Authority administrator to renew the contract between the Solano County IHSS Public Authority and Pan American Life Insurance Group for health, dental and vision benefits for eligible In-Home Supportive Services providers.

The cost is $4.31 million for two years. n Approved three revenue contracts, for up to $550,000 per fiscal year, with the Solano County Office of Education ($200,000 per fiscal year), Dixon ($335,000 per fiscal year) and North Bay Schools Insurance Authority ($15,000 per fiscal year) for the Department of General Services-Fleet Management Division to provide vehicle leasing and vehicle maintenance services through June 30, 2022.

Nearly 900 Secret Service employees had Covid WASHINGTON — Almost 900 active U.S. Secret Service employees – most of them responsible for protecting government officials and buildings – were diagnosed with Covid-19 in the year ending in March.

Special Agents, who protect the president, vice president and their families, made up more than half of the 881 employees who were infected, according to government records obtained by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. The uniformed division, which guards the White House and other federal buildings, made up the next largest group of infections.

The group, citing records obtained under the Freedom of Information act, on Tuesday described the number of Secret Service employees testing positive between March 1, 2020, and March 9, 2021.

The time frame covers peak periods of the pandemic when President Donald Trump was in office, and extends into the first few months of Joe Biden’s presidency.

during Western Day at Peña Adobe Park in Vacaville, July 6, 2019.

Peña Adobe open houses return with Western Days Susan Hiland

shiland@dailyrepublic.net

VACAVILLE — The Peña Adobe Historical Society is reopening with plans to hold Western Days, the first of its monthly open houses since the pandemic began last year.

The event is planned from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Aug. 7.

Society volunteers this summer also offer presentations at the Vacaville Community Services Department’s Camp Adobe, which started June 7 and runs through Aug. 11.

Peña Adobe docents are visiting campers from 9:30 a.m. to noon each Wednesday with pro-

grams and tours of the adobe and museum.

The 23rd Missy Benzinger from the Zinger Ranch Farm Sanctuary will share animals with campers Wednesday. he Zinger Ranch Farm Sanctuary, located in Vacaville, is home to more than 175 rescued farm animals, including goats, sheep, donkeys, chickens, ducks, cattle, turkeys and even bumblebees.

It has been well over a year since Peña Adobe had its last open house in March 2020 when the Covid-19 pandemic closed public events.

The open house Aug. 7 will feature performances by the

Congressional Gunfighters of America, music by the Vacaville Acoustic Jammers under the direction of Terry and Leslie Cloper, tours of the adobe with Cecelia Peña, a fifthgeneration family member, and demonstrations by Rush Ranch’s blacksmith, Virgil Sellers.

The Peña Adobe is the oldest structure built in Solano County. It was built in 1842 by Juan Felipe Peña after he and Juan Manuel Vaca arrived in Vaca Valley from the New Mexico region.

An examination of the adobe’s needs was undertaken in mid-2020 and its renovation, which was started in late 2020, is

ongoing. Improvements have included an alarm system, better ventilation and better access to the museum.

The park is also home to the Mowers-Goheen Museum, with its artifacts from the area’s settlement, as well as the Willis Linn Jepson Memorial Garden and the Indian Council Ground.

The Peña Adobe Regional Park is located in Lagoon Valley off of Interstate 80, at 4699 Peña Adobe Road.

The Peña Adobe Historical Society can be reached at 447-0518 or by email at penaadobe@gmail.com.

Big-rig crash leads to closure of Highway 37 Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

VALLEJO — Highway 37 was closed in both directions for several hours Tuesday as crews worked to clear a crash involving a big rig that was hauling fuel.

The big rig with two tanker trailers overturned during the crash. Preliminary reports indicate that no fuel was spilled from the tankers.

Highway 37 was closed in both directions from Wilson Boulevard to the intersection at Highway 121.

Westbound traffic was diverted onto the Mare Island exit. Eastbound traffic was diverted to northbound Highway 121.

Eastbound lanes reopened shortly after 3 p.m.

Westbound lanes reopened shortly before 3:30 p.m.

The crash was reported

shortly before 6 a.m. and blocked westbound Highway 37 at Skaggs Island Road. Westbound traffic was initially funneled around the crash scene until the rest of westbound Highway 37 along with eastbound Highway 37 were closed several hours later.

Caltrans reports that fuel from the tanker – estimated at between 8,400 and 8,500 gallons of gasoline – needed to be transferred

to another carrier to allow crews to right the big rig and clear the crash scene.

Vallejo firefighters assisted with the hazardous materials aspect of the incident.

The California Highway Patrol is investigating the cause of the crash, which was initially reported as an injury crash.

Details on the number of people hurt and the severity of their injuries were not immediately available.

GOP blocks Democrats’ voting rights bill in Senate Tribune Content Agency

there is no guarantee that any changes Republicans or moderate Democrats want would have been made to the bill before that vote happens. Refusing to move legislation can force the majority party to moderate a bill to reach consensus.

Tuesday’s defeat was expected to reignite debate over changing the filibuster rules, which both parties have used while in the minority to block consideration of legislation they do not like. It takes a simple majority to change Senate rules, but Manchin, Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., and other Democrats are leery of making such a permanent move.

Dozens of liberal groups are preparing a last-ditch effort to pressure senators to either pass the legislation or get rid of the vote threshold, through television ads, phone banks and rallies nationwide over the July Fourth holiday. Some are lining up to target Democratic lawmakers, including California’s Dianne Feinstein.

Feinstein has previously opposed changing Senate rules to eliminate the 60-vote threshold, but also has signaled that she might consider it over voting rights.

“Our summer of mobilization and grassroots actions to pass this bill will continue. Democracy will prevail. Failure

is not an option,” Karen Hobert Flynn, president of government watchdog Common Cause, said in a statement.

President Joe Biden has named election reform and voter access a top priority, and recently tasked Vice President Kamala Harris with working on voter rights and access issues. Although she has given speeches and met with supporters, she hadn’t been publicly engaged in whipping up support on Capitol Hill.

Activists’ pressure campaign faces an uphill battle. Biden and Congress are focused on achieving other priorities, such as infrastructure, immigration and a government spending package.

And activists are already showing frustration with Biden for not doing more to rally support. Some progressive members of Congress have added to the chorus.

“Where is the president?” Indivisible founder Ezra Levin said on Twitter on Monday. “Is saving democracy a priority for this administration or not?

I don’t want to see some tepid public statement. We need to see the president and VP using the full force of their bully pulpit to lead.”

Indivisible, an activist group inspired by the results of the 2016 election, has organized hundreds of events nationwide to pressure senators in the

next few weeks.

The White House formally endorsed the bill Tuesday. White House press secretary Jen Psaki said criticism from progressives aimed at Biden were “a fight against the wrong opponent.”

“We share their passion. We share the desire to fight these efforts,” Psaki said. “It doesn’t mean that that fight will always be easy, but he is going to stand by them in this effort.”

Schumer wouldn’t discuss next steps Tuesday before the vote.

Schumer can bring the bill, or another piece of election reform legislation such as the narrower John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, before the Senate again this year.

The bill, which has already passed the House, would set up public financing of federal elections, establish minimum standards for early and absentee polling times and same-day registration and put nonpartisan panels in charge of redrawing congressional districts. It also sets ethics requirements for the president and vice president, and changes the composition of the Federal Elections Commission, the federal agency that oversees campaign spending.

Democrats say it is necessary to counter the wave of legislation proposed

by Republican state lawmakers nationwide since the 2020 presidential election that strips state officials of their power in running elections, makes it easier for legislatures to overturn election results and sets new hurdles on early and absentee voting. Fourteen states have passed new laws on voting, including limiting whether water and food can be legally provided to people waiting in long lines to vote.

by example,” Huber said.

Spering said he is fully committed to equity, but cautioned Hannigan about “forcing the issue today.”

He and Hannigan had a tense exchange during the discussion, and Vasquez also raised his own level of resentment about the direction Hannigan wanted to go.

“I was born this color,” said Vasquez, the only supervisor of color. He said he had been “trained every God-damned day,” but would not allow the color of his skin to define his life.

“I resent someone telling me who I am,” he said.

When Hannigan noted she came from white privilege to show the varied perspectives, Vasquez quickly responded, “So you are going to come in and save my life?”

Hannigan responded by saying the training is not meant to change anyone’s mind, only to provide a perspective, some understanding of

history so the board can better understand how the county employees view matters, including bias.

“I don’t want one person’s perspective on history,” Spering said.

The board will now wait for the results of an employee survey, which was initially about issues such as retention, but for the first time will include questions on equity. spering Those results are expected at the end of September.

Hannigan said she is not convinced the board will ever agree to equity training.

“I find it hard to believe we are going to even move forward given some of the comments I’ve heard,” said Hannigan, who added she was pushing for the training because she represents the highly diverse city of Vallejo.

“Maybe this is not the right board for equity for this county,” she said.

Spering called the comment unfair, and said Hannigan was trying to force the issue down their throats, noting that while the committee has received all the background on the issue, the rest of the board had not.

Hannigan and Vasquez serve on the Ad Hoc Equity Board Subcommittee, which was formed in September 2020. The supervisors authorized a $150,000 budget for the panel. This was the first report back to the full board.

One of the primary purposes for the funding was to hire a consultant to guide the board and county leadership toward equity training, with a goal of improving hiring, retention and other issues related to employee equity.

The focus is initially to be on internal matters alone, and in time to take a look at the county as a whole.

the efforts by the rural districts, which are often defined as the first line of defense for the cities.

Some residents in each city were evacuated in August due to the LNU Lightning Complex Fire.

“It’s absolutely scary to me,” Supervisor Mitch Mashburn said of the threat to the cities.

“This is urgent. This is important. And this will be beneficial,” he said.

The board also directed the county staff “to continue work with the fire districts to address operational, facility and equipment needs” including “exploration of other

funding opportunities or a potential funding measure to support increased capabilities,” as worded in a staff report.

Additionally, the board directed staff to “build and expand communications with the community on wildfire risks and protective actions” to gauge public interest in supporting a funding mechanism.

There is a $7,500 application filing fee with LAFCO. The staff report also indicates other anticipated costs, which are part of the county administration budget but not spelled out in the board report.

WASHINGTON — Republicans on Tuesday blocked Democrats’ signature election legislation, the For the People Act, a sweeping voting rights and government reform measure.

But with liberal activists priming for a fight, the debate of whether to overhaul how the country conducts elections likely isn’t going to end this week.

The defeat is also likely to renew the debate among Democrats about whether to change the long-standing Senate filibuster rule, which currently gives the GOP greater power to block legislation.

Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y., needed support from 60 senators to bring the bill up for discussion.

In the end the vote was 50 to 50.

Even some Democrats who voted in favor of advancing the bill Tuesday had remained uncertain about whether they would support a final version.

Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., had made clear he didn’t support the bill without revisions and last week he circulated a list of changes he wanted to see.

Schumer lambasted Republicans, stressing that Tuesday’s vote was just to begin debate on the bill, at which point it could be modified or amended.

“Will our colleagues stand up for what generations of Americans have fought for, marched for and died for?” Schumer said Tuesday before the vote.

“Or will they just slink away and say we’re not going to even debate this?”

The minority party loses leverage by allowing the Senate to debate legislation it doesn’t like.

She said the concept is to gain a historical perspective and a foundational understanding of issues so the board can address policies and procedures understanding explicit and implicit bias.

Hannigan received support from Gerald Huber, director of the Department of Health and Social Services – the agency that initiated the employee level training. “(Employees) want to see if the board is committed to equity . . . and they want to see the board lead

Amazon’s Prime Day US shoppers spending less per order so far Tribune Content Agency Amazon.com Inc. shoppers in the U.S. spent less per order during the first 32 hours of the annual Prime Day sale than the previous two years, according to Numerator, suggesting shoppers are flocking to the site to buy diapers and cereal rather than flat-screen televisions and laptops.

The average Amazon order was $47.14 in the first 32 hours of the event, down from $54.64 last year, when Prime Day fell in October. Order size also trailed the $58.91 in 2019, when Prime Day was in July, according to Numerator, which tracks spending from a focus group of more than 5,000 U.S. households.

The results reflect a shift in consumer purchases during the sale from big-ticket electronics to everyday items.

Electronics, which were the top category shopped last year, slipped to the fourth-most popular category this year behind household essentials, gardening supplies and apparel, Numerator said.

“Prime members are saving big and taking advantage of the widest selection of deals we’ve ever had on Prime Day,” an Amazon spokeswoman said in a statement. “In the U.S., there are hundreds of thousands of brand new deals available today for our members to shop and save, including deals from small businesses.”

Shoppers shifted more of their spending

online during the pandemic when stores closed, making it harder for an online sale to stand out.

Amazon also has competition from retailers such as Walmart Inc., Target Corp. and Best Buy Co. offering competing deals.

Shoppers reacted to all of the sales, but they didn’t go crazy. The average online order on Monday for U.S. shoppers on all sites was $180, up from $175 from the previous 20 days in June, according to the Adobe Digital Economy Index, which tracks overall online spending. That small boost was still enough to make Prime Day the biggest online shopping day so far this year, with U.S. consumers spending $5.6 billion, Adobe said.

Amazon started Prime Day in 2015 to attract new subscribers, who now pay as much as $119 a year for shipping discounts, video streaming and other perks. The event helps Amazon lock in shoppers before the holidays and deepen its relationship with existing customers by offering them deals on Amazon gadgets such as the Fire TV stick and smart speakers that run on the Alexa voice platform.

Many third-party merchants who provide more than half of the products sold on Amazon said they couldn’t offer deep discounts on Amazon Prime Day this year due to scarce inventory and rising costs for shipping and advertising on the site.

US-China tariffs distorted trade; billions lost, Fed says Tribune Content Agency Starting in early 2020, a very unlikely anomaly started appearing in global trade data: China said it was selling more goods to the U.S. than the U.S. reported buying from China.

That was a reversal of the normal pattern and a product of the two nations’ trade war – but not an intended consequence.

Instead, it was likely due to misreporting by both exporters in China and importers in the U.S., according to new research from Federal Reserve economists.

Companies in the U.S. could pay less in tariffs if they under-reported the value of goods imported from China, while firms in China could get higher value-added tax rebates if they over-reported the value of exports, the economists argue.

Usually, the import value of a good when it enters one country should be higher than the value of the same good when it leaves another nation.

That’s because import prices usually include the cost of freight and insurance, while exports do not.

Until February 2020, this was the case with bilateral U.S.-China trade – U.S. goods imports from China were always valued as worth more than China’s exports to the U.S. However, since March the opposite has been reported for almost every month.

The report underscores the difficulty in winning trade wars with economic barriers like tariffs, contrary to former President

Collectors stores clean up during trading-card boom B2 Wednesday, June 23, 2021 SECTION B Paul Farmer . Sports Editor . 427.6926

Warriors land seventh and 14th picks in NBA draft Tribune Content Agency Golden State’s most likely scenario came to fruition, as the Warriors will have two picks in the top 14 of July 29’s NBA draft, including Minnesota’s first-round pick.

The annual draft lottery awarded Golden State with the seventh and 14th overall picks. Golden State held the 14th and last spot in the lottery after missing the playoffs by losing the Los Angeles Lakers and Memphis Grizzlies in the

play-in tournament. That gave the Warriors just a 2.4% chance of moving up.

Meanwhile, most of the intrigue pertained to the Timberwolves’ pick that the Warriors acquired in the 2020 trade that sent D’Angelo Russell to Minnesota for Andrew Wiggins. That pick, which was slotted sixth in the lottery, was protected for selections 1-3. Minnesota would keep the pick only if it jumped into the top three.

So while the best-case scenario would have been

Golden State’s own pick jumping to the top spot and Minnesota’s landing at No. 4, the far more probable scenario involved something along the lines of the Warriors’ own pick staying at 14 and Minnesota’s landing in the middle of the lottery.

The Pistons got the first overall pick, followed by the Rockets, Cavaliers, Raptors, Magic, Thunder, Warriors, Magic, Kings, Pelicans, Hornets, Spurs and Pacers.

With the seventh pick,

the Warriors won’t likely have a chance to select one of the draft’s consensus top-five prospects: Oklahoma City’s Cade Cunningham, USC’s Evan Mobley, Gonzaga’s Jalen Suggs and G League Ignite’s Jalen Green and Jonathan Kuminga.

However, they will be in line to select from the next tier of prospects that includes Florida State’s Scottie Barnes, Baylor’s Davion Mitchell, Duke’s Jalen Johnson, Tennessee’s Keon Johnson, Michigan’s

Franz Wagner and others.

At 14, players such as Gonzaga’s Corey Kispert, Australia’s Josh Giddey, Oregon’s Chris Duarte and Stanford’s Ziaire Williams and others could be available.

Golden State could try to trade one or both of these picks for more experienced help for Stephen Curry, Draymond Green and Klay Thompson, or package them to move up in the draft. However, the Warriors front office is comfortable with the

notion of adding two more rookies to a roster topped by an aging core. While last year’s second-overall pick James Wiseman failed to make a consistently positive impact last season, management is betting that he and Golden State’s other young players can find ways to contribute.

Whatever the Warriors do with their picks, at least they know now where they will be selecting. The rest of the offseason starts now.

Cutting Nassib at this point would result in a $15 dead cap hit for the Raiders, which ensures that he’ll be with the team for the start of the 2021 season.

In his announcement, Nassib thanked the “ NFL, my coaches, and fellow players for their support.

Nassib on Monday became the first active NFL player to say publicly that he is gay, posting a video on his Instagram account, saying, “I’m a pretty private person, so I hope you guys know that I’m really not doing this for the atten-

tion. I just think that representation and visibility are so important.”

“Number one, it’s 2021 so it’s not the most surprising thing in the world,” Raiders owner Mark Davis told the Los Angeles Times.

“It doesn’t change my opinion of Carl as a man or as a Raider.”

Raiders coach Jon Gruden told ESPN, “I learned a long time ago what makes a man different is what makes him great.”

Streaming telecasts a reality for Giants and A’s fans, and they’re not all happy Bruce Jenkins

SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE

T

he past few days have been exasperating for Giants and A’s fans who build their recreational lives around a set routine. Streaming exclusivity is gaining momentum, and it looks very much like a sign of the future.

Over the weekend, the entire Giants-Phillies series was broadcast on Peacock, NBC Universal’s streaming video service, and if you didn’t choose that route, you were out of luck.

Tuesday night brought the latest YouTube TV Game of the Week, and it was the second game of the A’s series in Texas. Once again: Figure it out or check out.

It’s really not so difficult to get there. I’m an old-school bumbler in many ways, but I easily navigated my way onto Peacock, through

ANALYSIS Comcast Xfinity, and watched all three games on a smart TV for free. The YouTube games are similarly accessible, and it’s important to know that we’ve probably seen the last of this for the season. Peacock won’t be locked into any more MLB games in any part of the country – that’s the plan, at least – and the YouTube package sets a seasonal limit of just two games per team.

(The Giants had one May 20, against the Reds, and aren’t expecting another.)

This is a huge adjustment, though, for fans who like to watch games on cable TV, through a conventional television set.

They’ve paid for their NBC Sports Bay Area subscription, they know the right channel, and they

could not be happier. Why would baseball mess with that? Why turn off a significant portion of any team’s fan base?

Leave it to Henry Schulman, who recently retired from The Chronicle’s Giants beat, to summarize Friday night’s mood on Twitter : “Stupidest thing I’ve ever seen.”

Perhaps you know the answer if you have teenage children, or have noticed kids’ habits around town.

Older fans might insist on settling into their living room to watch a television set, but the younger set is looking to multitask: watching shows or sports on an iPad, among other devices, while riding in a car or just hanging out. That whole dynamic will only become more sophisticated and appealing over time, and with fewer fans of all See Telecasts, Page B2

It took a game, but Elvis Andrus returned to his home of 12 years and gave his Texas fans a vintage performance.

His three-hit game lofting the A’s to an early offensive explosion in their 13-6 win over the Rangers at Globe Life Park. The A’s scored nine of their runs in the first three innings and their final four in the ninth alone. But Andrus’ old team fought back.

For more than a decade with the Rangers, Andrus was both a face of the franchise and pillar of consistency on both ends until a back injury sidelined him and the Rangers shipped him, Aramis Garcia and cash to Oakland for Khris Davis, Jonah Heim and minor leaguers.

Andrus’ first hit of the game was a two-run single to cap off a fourrun first inning for the A’s off Rangers starter Taylor Hearn, who lasted all of two outs into the inning.

He and Sean Murphy hit back-to-back singles

to start the third inning, prompting Mark Canha’s two-run single to give the A’s their eighth and ninth runs in the third.

Canha was at the center of nearly every one of the A’s scoring innings. His leadoff walk in the first inning led to Matt Chapman’s two-run home run to kick the A’s scoring off. He tripled to lead off the third inning and scored on a groundout before Ramón Laureano crushed a two-run home run in a three-run second inning.

The R angers scored six unanswered runs, threatening an unlikely comeback.

Canha also misplayed Eli White’s RBI single in the fifth inning amid a Rangers’ comeback attempt. The hit was one of four hits Texas would collect in the four-run inning off A’s starter Cole Irvin.

Irvin cruised through four scoreless, but was pulled after the tumultuous fifth inning. Sergio Romo left a slider over the plate for White, See A’s, Page B12

Expos open up 16-day road trip with thumping of Reno Knights Daily Republic staff

SPORTS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — David Abilez ripped three doubles and Blake Bozzini also had three hits Sunday as the Fairfield Expos American Legion baseball team started its 16-day road trip by blitzing the host Reno Knights, 12-1.

The Expos did most of their damage in a nine-run top of the third innings, banging out 10 hits, including two doubles by Abilez, a triple and a single by Bozzini, a double by Gabe Ponce and triples

by Gavin Arpaia and Drew Carrington.

All nine starters had at least one hit with six

driving in at least one run. Carrington finished with two hits, while Bozzini had three RBIs, and Abilez and Ryan Kariolich each had two.

Dayton Hicks started and went the first six innings to get the win, allowing one run on five hits with five strikeouts and no walks.

Bozzini finished up with a scoreless seventh inning, fanning one.

The Expos were scheduled to play Upper Valley Post 22 on Monday in St. Anthony, Idaho, before spending Tuesday touring Yellowstone National Park and playing games Wednesday in Three Forks and Bozeman, Montana.

1,000,000 Baseball Cards owner Wally Militzer, left, speaks with customer Arthur Cassidy from Florissant, Missouri, about some old baseball cards he brought to the store to sell in Ballwin, Missouri, June 15. “We didn’t

have internet when I was a kid so I collected cards,” Cassidy said. During the pandemic, interest in collectable cards has increased and stores throughout the nation are trying to keep up.

into a serious investment.

Trading got so hot, melees broke out in Target and Walmart aisles and parking lots, leading the companies to temporarily suspend sales. Local shops, though, have managed to cater both to casual collectors and speculators angling for the next big payoff. Most card stores here have been around for decades, and owners say 2021 looks to break the sales records they shattered in 2020 – if they can get product on their shelves.

‘The next best thing’ At the Sports Card Dugout in Webster Groves, empty display boxes advertising “Major League Leaders” serve as placeholders until new packs of players arrive, whenever that will be.

Lifelong collector Neil Roden, 35, stopped by a couple of months ago but left empty-handed.

Roden, who lives in south St. Louis, regularly invests in hobby boxes, which promise at least one signature or bit of memorabilia per package.

But so far this year, he’s bought none. They’ve been tough to find, and, more importantly, the price is prohibitive.

Roden enjoys the online community of collectors. He checks on how much his handheld heroes could earn him – a vintage Yadier Molina he bought for $38 recently attracted a $750 bid on eBay – and follows YouTube collector channels.

“They’re really exciting to watch,” he said.

“If you’re not opening a box yourself, it’s the next best thing.”

The anticipatory rush of “case breaks” can be addictive, said Dugout

owner Randy Fauth.

“You’re buying a product, but it’s also a form of gambling,” he said.

The popularity of trading cards has come in waves since Fauth opened the shop 30 years ago. The industry last surged in the late 1980s, he said, and crashed under the weight of overproduction and the 1994 baseball strike.

For the past few years, high-performing rookies – across all sports – have driven the pricing free-for-all.

But any kind of hype can raise any player’s fortunes: Michael Jordan’s cards rebounded after the release of “The Last Dance” documentary last year.

‘A $75 pr ice tag is worth it’ “If ESPN is talking about it, someone is buying it,” said Jim Miller, owner of Collector’s Corner in Belleville.

Miller opened the shop with his wife in 1999, just as eBay was gaining a foothold among traders. He saw a couple of dozen collecting stores in the area fold soon after. But Collector’s Corner adapted, adding autograph shows and stocking vintage toys and gaming cards, like Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering – which are in the middle of their own resurgence.

“When the pandemic hit, I thought we were toast,” Miller said. “What we sell is not a necessity.”

But since the store reopened after last spring’s shutdown, he hasn’t been able to catch his breath. Prices are spiking, but customers keep coming.

Collector’s Corner already has its orders in for next year. Manufacturers, their lesson learned

from the market oversaturation of a generation ago, are keeping a tight grip on production.

“We don’t tell Topps, Upper Deck and Panini how much we want to buy,” said Militzer, of 1,000,000 Baseball Cards.

“They tell us how much we can have.”

His sales almost doubled last year, even with two months lost to the mandated coronavirus closure. Sports fans weren’t shelling out for Blues and Cardinals tickets, he said, and they were looking for somewhere to plunk their money.

“The classic collector story is a middle-aged man comes in. He never got the card he wanted as a kid,” said Militzer. “Now he has a good job, and a $75 price tag is worth it.”

Today’s young sports fans, some worry, are being priced out of the hobby by investors and speculators.

Ben Pezold welcomes kids at the Collector Store in St. Peters, but most of his customers are adults.

Pezold himself began collecting cards at age 8 and was buying and selling online by the time he was 16. He opened the shop 20 years ago, after he graduated from college.

Last year was his best year ever. He anticipates this year will be even better – as long as he can keep his cases full.

The shop’s cards range from one dollar to five figures. Juiced-up prices will eventually correct, Pezold said, but he doesn’t think they’ll drop back to pre-pandemic levels.

“The historic trends are just not holding true,” he said. “Right now, everything is so hot.”

watch with closed captioning. We just can’t do it.

Those captions are just too distracting to tolerate for several hours. I spent almost an hour on the phone with Comcast Friday evening, and it was a bust. I don’t even see how this is legal, forcing people to watch baseball on streaming apps that are out of control of the cable company. So my son and I had to skip watching the Giants games on Father’s Day weekend.

This trial was a complete failure, so I hope you can make sure Peacock never does another Giants broadcast again.”

In Eureka, longtime Giants fan Tim Symington discovered Friday night that “the picture is correctly centered only about a third of the time,

and it’s out focus,” he wrote via email. “The rest of the time, the bottom of the screen is split into about six lines of the picture broken up and vibrating. It’s something Pablo Picasso would have been proud of. On top of this, the sound is off, and it took me over three hours to set up the broadcast. I don’t know what the Giants are getting out of this, but it’s a terrible way to treat such a loyal fan base.”

To be clear, the Giants don’t stand to lose or gain revenue from this development.

“It was an experiment initiated by MLB,” said Baer in a telephone conversation. “We’re taking all the comments, some of them positive,

certainly not all. We’re just trying to get a look at how the future can be, and how the games can be offered to as many fans as possible.”

The Giants-Phillies series was telecast with a four-man crew, which didn’t sound too promising, but it was pulled off with humor, insight and great storytelling by Jon Miller, Mike Krukow and two ex-players who regularly work the Phillies’ games, John Kruk and Jimmy Rollins.

It’s unclear if Peacock would routinely enlist two broadcasters for each team, nor can we be certain when Peacock baseball will return to our lives – only that baseball streaming is here, and cannot be dismissed.

Collectors stores clean up during trading-card boom ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH

MANCHESTER, Mo. — Andrew House of Chesterfield is the third generation of trading-card collectors in his family. His grandpa filled shoeboxes with baseball legends. His dad packed albums with 1980s sluggers. And now Andrew, 14, has been buying Topps baseball packs, little by little, hoping to uncover his favorite Cardinals.

But he’s had a hard time this year. There just aren’t very many on the shelves.

It’s a familiar narrative to Wally Militzer, owner of 1,000,000 Baseball Cards in Manchester.

“This is a nostalgia business,” Militzer said.

“And the pandemic just put everything on steroids.”

Trading cards have been riding a hot streak for the past several years.

Kids who grew up on bubble-gum wax packs introduced the pastime to their own children. The debut of relic cards, with game-used materials like snippets of jerseys and shards of baseball bats, and “unboxing” videos on social media heightened the thrill of the chase.

During the pandemic, there were fewer outlets for discretionary spending and more time to follow online auctions. Prices surged as flippers snapped up new releases. Longstanding sales records tumbled, almost monthly: A 1952 Mickey Mantle and a rookie LeBron James topped $5 million this year. Even accessories, like plastic holders and protective sleeves, have been at a premium.

A hobby that once was funded by lawn-mowing jobs and weekly allowances has transformed

Giants’ stunning move: LaMonte Wade Jr. optioned Telecasts: Many unhappy with product to Sacramento From Page B1

Tribune Content Agency LaMonte Wade Jr. has been an important part of the Giants’ success as a potent hitter and versatile defender, and now he has gotten something he didn’t deserve: a demotion to TripleA Sacramento.

In advance of the Giants’ two-game series in Anaheim, they reinstated outfielders Alex Dickerson and Darin Ruf from the injured list and optioned i n f ielder Ja son Vosler and Wade to the minors.

Wade, who has been a valuable asset as a fill-in at first base and

throughout the outfield, is having a breakout season – hitting .265 with a .344 on-base percentage and .470 slugging percentage in 26 games.

He has four homers, three doubles, a triple and two steals.

Removing Wade from the roster is an indication of the Giants’ strong depth, a nice problem to have for a first-place team.

Why wasn’t .171hitting outfielder Mike Tauchman cut instead of Wade, who has been the leadoff hitter against right-handed starters?

Because Tauchman is See Giants, Page B12

ages electing to subscribe by traditional means, MLB has to address the reality.

It also has to tighten up its act. Past games aired exclusively on Facebook were an aesthetic disaster, and there appear to be separate experiences in the Peacock realm. I’ve got an up-to-date Comcast box (X1 DVR), and I watched the entire Giants series with perfect reception. For those with older boxes, there was chaos.

Fairfield loses a true treasure

T

hey’re all around us and we often don’t recognize them – “Fairfield Treasures,” like Japan’s National Treasures – people who are exceptional.

Dick Valeriote was born the 15th of 16 children of Italian immigrants in Canada. Local boy makes good. In his memoire, “Alice Street,” Dick recounts many delightful memories of his small town in Guelph, Ontario.

Once he was asked to fill in the squad in a high school track meet.

Without any training he won three races in three days, breaking records. His brother was running the family grocery store and grumped when the younger brother inexplicably showed up late for three days after school.

Jack Batson When the newspaper divulged the news of three records broken by an unknown high schooler, brother was furious.

When Dick asked to be allowed to compete in the regional meet on a Saturday, the answer was No! Work at the family store came first, period.

His pay at the store was $1.20 per week. They delivered orders for free. This required delivery-boy Dick to buy a bicycle with a basket – at his unreimbursed expense. At $42, the bike payments took $1 per week for 42 weeks, reducing his pay to 20 cents. His mother always required him to give 10 cents to the church poor box, so his pay was 10 cents per week, just enough for a weekly ice cream cone.

After high school and nine years of “slavery” in the family grocery store, Dick “escaped” Guelph, Ontario, as he described it, by working construction in Labrador. He never forgot the date of his “emancipation”: Nov. 19, 1948.

With top grades, Dick wanted to go to university and medical school. But the family didn’t have the resources for their 15th kid during the Great Depression, so our young man sat on the bank steps, accosting anyone who looked familiar.

“Oh, you’re the Valeriote kid? Sure, I’ll lend you some college money.”

Forty-six personal loans later, Dick finished medical school.

Dick grew up “poor and cold,” as he recalled.

He had to hitchhike home from college for the holidays. One winter, standing by the road with his thumb out and utterly frozen, he saw a lone horse in a corral, also looking bereft. Dick thought, “We are the most miserable creatures in the entire world.” Hardships gave him a heart for struggling people, resulting in many subsequent acts of generosity.

After graduation as an MD in 1958, he and Polly ventured to warm California, looking for work. After visiting a dozen cities they chose Fairfield.

Hired on the spot, he started work the very next day at midnight. On that day he delivered three babies before 6 a.m. He delivered more than 600 babies over his career.

Four years later and outgrowing his threebedroom house on Nevada Street, Dick went on the prowl for a larger house for his growing family. He took a chance, bought the Mayberry Court land and developed it, keeping one house for himself. He didn’t make much money – he was swindled by two foremen – but he had broken the ice in a new interest – building. Burning the midnight oil, he got his contractor’s license.

Over time Dick developed Richards Court (for Richard Valeriote) and the surrounding area, the Martin Estates, Parkway Gardens on Dover Avenue, apartments on Union Avenue, offices on Webster Street, Humphrey Estates in Suisun City, the Casa Nova trailer park, then was invited to Vacaville where he built four senior-living complexes. His business partners included such local luminaries as Billy Yarbrough, the Low brothers, and Kiwanis and medical friends.

In all, Dick built 1,200 houses and apartments in our tri-city area. He began the Bank of Fairfield, which is now the local Bank of the West. He was never sued.

Dick never abandoned his upbringing in charity. He made personal loans and gifts to dozens of needy people. He and his partner donated 50 acres on the west side of Interstate 80 around the water tank to Santa Clara University where four of his children had attended.

He made major donations to the school that had trained him so well, McGill University, perhaps Canada’s finest.

Thirty-five years of medical practice, almost as many as a local developer, and five successful children is an impressive record. Dick Valeriote, who died last week, was a Fairfield treasure.

Farmers, ranchers need support

W

hile California is known for its worldfamous entertainment industry and ever-transforming tech sector, agriculture is the often-overlooked backbone of our diverse state and one of its earKaren Ross liest economic engines.

Our state’s multigenerational farmers and ranchers not only feed Californians, but also supply onethird of our country’s vegetables and two-thirds of its fruits and nuts, while also leading the nation in milk production.

Yet as other parts of our economy spring back to post-pandemic life, farmers and ranchers are facing major water shortages in the second straight year of drought – the new norm in a changing climate. Some farmers already are making difficult choices about which crops to grow and are even tearing out orchards.

Thanks to an enormous budget surplus, however, California is uniquely poised to help the agricultural sector adapt to increasingly scarce water supplies while also benefiting rural communities and wildlife – if our state leaders take action.

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s budget proposal includes a bold $5.1 billion investment in drought response and water resilience. Of that, $500 million is proposed to help farmers repurpose fields to more water-efficient uses that deliver new benefits, such as open space for rural communities, recharge basins to store water, habitat corridors for wildlife and lands to store carbon.

While $500 million may sound like a lot, it’s just the start of what’s truly needed to address the scope of the challenge facing the state,

particularly the Central Valley.

During the last drought, state leaders passed the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act to address decades David Shabazian of unregulated groundwater pumping, which caused land to sink, infrastructure to crumble and drinking water and irrigation wells to go dry. The law requires regions to balance groundwater supply and demand within 20 years, and ensure there is enough water to sustain agriculture and communities into the future.

Unfortunately, bringing groundwater use into balance could mean decreasing the agricultural footprint of California’s Central Valley by 500,000 to 750,000 acres – the size of Yosemite National Park and 10% to 15% of total farm acreage.

During this transition, it is absolutely crucial that local communities and landowners have funding to work collaboratively and determine how best to manage these lands.

Without strategic planning, these lands could become a haphazard patchwork of dusty fields infested with weeds and pests, affecting remaining agricultural lands and further impairing air quality.

However, with all hands on deck working together, we have an opportunity to help farmers voluntarily repurpose these fields into new positive uses.

The Central Valley has seen more than 90% of its wetlands disappear – a significant loss of habitat critically important for migratory birds and other wildlife. Restoring all of these wetlands won’t be possible, but $500 million will go a long way toward creating recharge ponds

that can help capture and store water underground while providing wetland habitat.

In addition, this funding can help develop scrubland habitat for endangered wildlife like the San Joaquin kit fox, pollinator habitat and forage that are vital to the production of healthy crops, and much-needed outdoor recreational spaces for rural communities. The funding can also help farmers transition to pastureland and lower waterintensive crops.

The history of California agriculture is one of evolution in crops, adjustment to changing markets and innovation in farming practices to minimize environmental impacts.

Just as other major industries in California have evolved as conditions change, the state’s agricultural sector must adapt to increasingly scarce water supplies. The $500 million proposed by the governor would create a new grant program to incentivize farmers to put their lands to work in ways that use less water and benefit California.

Earlier this month, the Assembly unanimously passed Assembly Bill 252 to create the program.

Let’s take action and help the farmers and ranchers who put food on our plates through this difficult transition. By urging legislators to support Newsom’s $500 million for land repurposing, we can ensure California’s agricultural economy continues to thrive while transforming the Central Valley into a more resilient place for people and nature.

hierarchy. The offices were originally created in the 19th century to administer local schools, which were then organized on a county-bycounty basis.

As independent school districts arose to replace county school systems, the roles of county superintendents morphed into providing some specialized education services directly and monitoring the financial health of school districts within their counties.

One example of the latter has been the years-long conflict between Sacramento County Superintendent David Gordon and the Sacramento City School District over the latter’s profligate financial practices, which have left it teetering on the edge of insolvency.

The San Bernardino County case puts county superintendents on notice that they must do more than rubberstamp LCAPs. That said, while having plans that say the right things about helping poor and English-learner students improve their academic achievement is progress, actually holding districts accountable for results would be even better.

Brown’s theory about “subsidiarity” – trusting local school officials to do the right thing – may sound good on paper, but in practice it’s fallen very short of doing what’s needed for children at risk of educational failure.

Spears ‘enjoying’ herself ahead of meeting with judge

Crossword

Tribune Content Agency Suspense is building ahead of Britney Spears’ planned audience Wednesday with the judge overseeing her strict, courtordered conservatorship.

What will she ask for? What’s the rush after 13 years? Is she really as happy as she claims to be in her Instagram posts?

While the hearing will almost certainly be conducted out of the earshot of media and fans, her lawyer said in April that Spears requested it on an “expedited” basis.

The last-known time Spears attended a hearing in person was 2019. Since then, the “Toxic” singer has vowed she’ll boycott all stage performances until her dad Jamie Spears is removed from any involvement in her $60 million estate.

In an Instagram post Thursday, the 39-year-old broached the subject again while seeming to assure fans she’s not in need of any emergency rescue.

“Am I ready to take the stage again? Am I gonna take the stage again? Will I ever take the stage again?” she asked during one of her impromptu Q&A videos.

“I have no idea. I’m having fun right now. I’m in a transition in my life, and I’m enjoying myself,” she said.

Conservatorships are put in place when judges find that adults have such diminished mental capacity that they require a family member or professional to step in to make financial, medical and other important decisions for them.

Called guardianships in some states, conservatorships have been granted over other high-profile Hollywood celebrities including Mickey Rooney, Amanda Bynes and, more recently, “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” husband Tom Girardi.

In Spears’ case, her twopart conservatorship was put in place after a series of highprofile mental health crises in 2007 and 2008 culminated with an involuntary hospitalization. It includes one arm that oversees her security, medical care and visitation with her two minor sons and another that controls her vast fortune.

Her dad formerly controlled both arms, but he’s since been replaced by care manager Jodi Montgomery on the personal side. On the financial side, he recently was ordered to share duties with Bessemer Trust, a wealth management firm selected by his daughter.

“Mr. Spears has performed his job well. This is not an opinion; he has taken the estate from being in debt and facing tens of millions of dollars of lawsuits to a current value of well over $60 million,” Jamie’s lawyers said in a court filing last year.

They claimed Jamie has

A conservatorship can always be dissolved by the court against a petitioner’s wishes, but in those cases, it’s up to the conservatee to prove their competence, and after years of intense and often adverse scrutiny, that can be difficult.

“A lot of what courts go by is history,” New York lawyer Carolyn Reinach Wolf, an expert in conservatorships, told the Daily News. “If someone has acted responsibly and done well (as a conservator), that could be compelling enough to make the court say, ‘What’s the problem here? Why change? Let’s keep things as they are because they’re working.’”

Then again, courts have ongoing obligations to conservatees as well, Wolf said.

“The courts are required to act in the best interest of the incapacitated person while considering what the leastrestrictive alternative is,” she explained. “If (Spears’) preference is not to have her dad be conservator and have someone else take that role, maybe someone she chooses, that’s the less-restrictive alternative in my mind, and the court should respect that.”

Wolf said in her opinion, parents should be parents, not their kids’ conservators.

“And when you’re talking about younger people with mental health issues, large sums of money and even fame in this case, it’s really not healthy to have a family member in charge of all that,” she said.

Parental involvement aside, she doesn’t think the duration of Spears’ conservatorship is necessarily a cause for concern.

“There is a certain comfort

level – especially in situations like this when someone is so at-risk of people taking advantage of them – to having a court overseeing your affairs, helping to manage and care for you. But it works better when it’s someone you trust and can engage with in a positive way. My guess is she might be able to do even better than she’s doing now if you take the fight and struggle out of who is the conservator,” Wolf said.

Jamie Spears may have been calling the shots when Spears returned to the stage for her successful Las Vegas residency, regained regular visitation with her two sons and started a long-term relationship with boyfriend Sam Asghari, but even Asghari has gone on record saying he doesn’t approve of Jamie’s oversight.

“Now it’s important for people to understand that I have zero respect for someone trying to control our relationship and constantly throwing obstacles in our way,” Asghari wrote on Instagram last February.

Spears’ longstanding conservatorship gained new urgency after the buzzy “Framing Britney Spears” documentary debuted on FX and Hulu earlier this year and reenergized the #FreeBritney movement.

The documentary, which portrays Spears as a victim of an overzealous legal proceeding and financial feeding frenzy, is now part of an Emmy campaign with huge billboards courting a nomination dotted around Los Angeles.

For her part, Spears has said she was rattled by the film.

“I didn’t watch the documentary but from what I did see of it I was embarrassed by the light they put me in,” she said on social media. “I cried for two weeks and well . . . I still cry sometimes!!!!”

Carmen Mandato/Getty Images/TNS file (2019)

T-Pain performs onstage at the BET Hip Hop Awards 2019 at Cobb Energy Center on in Atlanta, Oct. 5, 2019.

T-Pain battled depression after Usher insulted music Tribune Content Agency Singer and rapper T-Pain is opening up about his lengthy battle with depression, which began after Usher allegedly insulted his music.

In a brief clip from the new docuseries “This Is Pop,” out Tuesday on Netflix, T-Pain reflects on an alleged conversation with the “Yeah!” singer that he said negatively affected his mental health.

In the video, which has gone viral on social media, T-Pain says he was asleep on a first-class plane ride to Los Angeles for the 2013 BET Awards when a flight attendant woke him and informed him that Usher wanted to speak with him.

“Usher was my friend.

I really respect Usher,” the “Buy U a Drank” artist says in the video, adding that his contemporary “sounded real concerned.”

“He was like, ‘Man, I wanna tell you something, man. You kinda f— up music.’ I chuckled a little bit. It was a nervous chuckle, but I chuckled. I didn’t understand. I thought he was joking at first, but then he was like, ‘Nah, man. You really f— up music for real singers.’”

T-Pain is known for heavily Auto-Tuning his vocals, producing a tinny and distorted sonic effect that has become popular across various genres of music.

“I was like, ‘What did I do? I came out, and I used Auto-Tune.’ He’s like, ‘Yeah, you f— it up,’” T-Pain repeats in the Netflix teaser.

“I’m like . . . ‘But I used it. I didn’t tell everyone else to start using it.’ That is the very moment – and I don’t even think I realized this for a long time – that’s the very moment that started a fouryear depression for me.”

The snippet from “This Is Pop,” which

has amassed more than 3.9 million views on Twitter alone, prompted an outpouring of support for T-Pain from fans who hailed the “Bartender” hit-maker as a musical “pioneer” while slamming Usher as a “demon.”

“Usher put T-Pain into depression by saying autotune f— up music and then went and released ‘OMG’ a song full of autotune that went No.1,” tweeted one person. “This man a whole demon.”

“T-Pain said he didn’t realize for years that his depression started because of Usher’s comment,” wrote another.

“That’s literally how mental disorders show up. It takes years to unravel feelings & find the trigger. Though when you find thee trigger, you find things run deeper. Be kind to people.”

A representative for Usher did not immediately respond Tuesday to the Los Angeles Times’ request for comment.

This isn’t the first time T-Pain has spoken candidly about feeling slighted by his fellow musicians. In the past, multiple artists – from Kanye West to Jay-Z – have criticized T-Pain’s signature sound, according to a 2014 New Yorker profile titled “The Sadness of T-Pain.”

“People are just terrible, man,” T-Pain told the LA Times in 2014. “I just don’t get it. I think I’ve said the phrase ‘Why would you do that to a person?’; I think I’ve said that phrase well over 2,000 times in the last year.

“There’s just so much crap that gets done to artists. Two-sided things.

Oh, man, I wish I would have known how twosided people are. I just wish I knew not to trust all the people that say that they’re your friends.”

The complete first season of “This Is Pop” is now available to stream on Netflix.

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Jose Laquindanum & Jun Laquindanum A Petition for Probate has been filed by: Mercy Dureza in the Superior Court of California, County of: Solano The Petition for Probate requests that: Mercy Dureza be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: DATE: August 19, 2021 TIME: 9:00 a.m. DEPT.: 22 SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF SOLANO Old Solano Courthouse 580 Texas St. Fairfield, CA 94533 If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing.

Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1)four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

All right, title and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust in the property situated in said County and state, and as more fully described in the above referenced Deed of Trust.

Sale Date & Time: 07/07/2021 at 9:30 AM Sale Location: At the Santa Clara Street entrance to the City Hall at 555 Santa Clara Street, Vallejo, CA 94590 The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 2471 FREITAS WAY, FAIRFIELD, CA 94533-6635 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made in an “AS IS” condition, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to-wit: $335,952.62 (Estimated). Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 or visit this internet website, www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case T.S.# 94624901. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code.

If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 916-939-0772, or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case T.S.# 94624901 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale.

Sarah Kate Ellis, president and CEO of GLAAD, a leading LGBTQ advocacy organization, tweeted that Nassib’s “powerful coming out is a historic reflection of the growing state of LGBTQ visibility and inclusion in the world of professional sports, which has been driven by a long list of brave LGBTQ athletes who came before him.

“As an accomplished athlete who is now the first out gay active player in the NFL, Carl Nassib’s story will not only have a profound impact on the future of LGBTQ visibility and acceptance in sports, but sends a strong message to so many LGBTQ people, especially youth, that they too can one day grow up to be and succeed as a professional athlete like him,” Ellis wrote.

Brian Burke, president of the NHL’s Pittsburgh Penguins, also expressed his support. Burke is on the advisory board of the You Can Play Project, which seeks to ensure the safety and inclusion in

sports for LGBTQ+ athletes. Burke’s late son, Brendan, came out as gay.

“Proud to support Carl and his decision to come out as the first active gay player in the NFL,” Burke said. “I hope other sports executives will join me in publicly expressing their support as well.”

Jason Collins, who played college basketball at Stanford from 1998 to 2001, came out toward the end of 13-season NBA career from 2002 to 2014, making him the first openly gay player to play in an NBA game.

Collins told the Los Angeles Times that Nassib is “going to find that his actions have inspired not only people who are younger than him but older than him.

“I can’t tell you the amount of people who were decades older than me who came up to me and said how my story impacted them. You don’t know what to say. You’re still in that mindset of being an athlete and helping kids. But he’s helping people across the board, of all ages.”
