Biden extends vaccine drive Tribune Content Agency

Don Ryan, Office of Emergency Services manager for Solano County, says 9/11 was life-changing for his family.

WASHINGTON — Facing rising frustration over the lingering Covid-19 pandemic, President Joe Biden on Thursday escalated his administration’s efforts to require Americans to get vaccinated and make coronavirus testing more widely available. The series of initiatives are intended to stanch a wave of unnecessary deaths and safeguard an economic recovery jeopardized by the delta variant, a more contagious strain of the coronavirus that has ripped through unvaccinated communities. His announcement is also a political calculation that Americans will be willing to accept more intrusive government intervention to bring the pandemic under control now that the country is once again averaging more than 1,000 deaths per day. “A distinct minority of Americans, supported by a distinct minority of elected officials, are keeping us from See Vaccine, Page A9

FAIRFIELD — It was important to Don Ryan that his two young children saw for themselves the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks in New York City. So in early November 2001, Ryan and his wife, Anita, took their son, Jack, and daughter, Mary, then 12 and 10, to ground zero. “I was there with my kids and I wanted them to see it so they would have a memory of it,” said Ryan, who had returned to the Air Force after the attack and having been furloughed from his pilot’s job at US Airways. He said the iconic images of the World Trade Center’s steel beams sticking out from the rubble were still there.

“The ground was still covered with 4 inches of ash and paper from the buildings that came down,” Ryan said. “It was still smoking.” His children then bent down and grabbed a handful of the ash. Nearly 3,000 people died – 246 in the four planes (plus 19 hijackers), 2,606 in the two towers and surrounding area of the World Trade Center, and 125 at the Pentagon – and more than 6,000 others were injured. The terrorist attacks have left an indelible memory for millions in the United States and around the world, and was a life-changing event for Ryan and his family – ultimately bringing them to Solano County and he to a third career. “9/11 changed my family’s life in many, See Remember, Page A9

SACRAMENTO — California could soon ban the sale of gas-powered leaf blowers and lawn mowers under a bill the Legislature passed and sent to Gov. Gavin Newsom on Thursday. Assembly Bill 1346 would

direct the California Air Resources Board to phase out the sale of “small off-road engines” by 2024, or as soon as the board finds feasible, whichever is later. The bill also requires the Air Resources Board to identify and make available, where feasible, funding for com-

mercial rebates or similar incentive funding. The bill’s author, Assemblyman Marc Berman, D- Menlo Park, tweeted on Wednesday that the state will spend $30 million “to help gardeners transition to cleaner, greener equipment.” Berman’s bill comes as part

of a state effort to cut down on air pollution. One hour of gas-powered leaf blower use is equivalent in emissions to a vehicle driving 1,100 miles from Los Angeles to Denver, according to the Air Resources Board. See Mowers, Page A9

Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — The Justice Department announced Thursday it will challenge a controversial abortion law that bans the procedure after about six weeks, well before most women know they are pregnant, a person familiar with the matter said. The action comes as the Biden administration has been facing pressure from Democrats to block the Texas statute, especially after the Supreme Court last week allowed it to take effect. Attorney General Merrick Garland announced his office would bring suit under the 14th Amendment and under the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution, that states that

Photos of Yolana Elmo Messer. A few years after she retired, Messer’s husband died from brain cancer. Soon afterward, a Fairfield police lieutenant asked her if she would come and work at the police station. The starting pay was only $3 per hour, but by the time Messer retired from there – 28 years later – her hourly wage had increased nearly nine fold. Even though she had never written a grant before she started working there, eventually she won 22 of them for the department, which helped them obtain equipment for computerized fingerprinting and numerous other public safety upgrades. In addition to a strong work ethic, Messer also is creative. Decades ago she saw someone painting on china, fell in love with it and was in a class the next day. She also has dabbled in ceramics and doll making and at one time held workshops in her Fairfield home. Messer had two brushes with Hollywood nearly half a century apart. In the late 1940s the film “All The King’s Men,” which eventually won the 1950 Best Picture Oscar, shot some scenes in Suisun City and used a few local folks. In 1993, Messer visited the set and met stars of the Neil Simon film adaption of his play “Lost in Yonkers” because a neighbor boy she’d baby-sat in Fairfield,

Mike Damus, co-starred in it alongside Richard Dreyfuss and Mercedes Ruehl. Messer’s Class of 1942 classmates didn’t have their first reunion until their 40th, but soon they were having an annual luncheon each February at the Hilton Garden Inn in Fairfield. They were organized by Messer’s lifelong friend and former mayor of Suisun City, Guido Colla, who died last year. The remaining classmates hope to meet next year. When queried about her secret to living a long life, Messer doesn’t have any, but does have a strong municipal allegiance. “While my dad lived until he was 82, I lost my mother when she was 42. I don’t know why I’m still here but I’m glad I am because my grandson and his wife are having a baby and I am going to be a great-grandma,” Messer said. “My daughter and my two granddaughters all live in Vacaville and they would love for me to live there, but I’m a Fairfield girl!

Nut Tree site of literacy celebration Matt Miller

mmiller@dailyrepublic.com

VACAVILLE — The Academy of 21st Century Learning partnered Wednesday with the Solano County Library and the Joyful Art Studio for a Literacy Awareness Night at the Nut Tree Plaza. The idea was to promote literacy for children on National Literacy Day. “It’s one of our global challenges where we can really make a difference and take part locally,” said Erin Dwyer, the vice president of operations at the academy. “Through literacy, we can create a better society for all of us.” The library had a table to give parents and children information about their services. They were also signing up those who needed library cards. Cristie Barron, meanwhile, of the Joyful Art Studio, was showing children how to decorate book marks with a variety of painting supplies. “We love getting out into the community and connecting with families,” said Kristen Murray, the children’s library coordinator at the Vacaville Public Library-Town Square. “Sometimes families don’t realize that the library has more than just books. We have musical instruments to rent, board games, music, Wi-Fi and more.” One of the library programs that Murray shared was the 1,000 Book Challenge where young children start by having books read to them before they can even do it themselves.

Vacaville library assistant Edward Carey gives Hudson Lillis, 9, a thumbs-up Wednesday night at the Nut Tree Plaza during Literacy Awareness Night. “If you do one book a day from the age of 3, you can complete the program,” Murray said. “Listening to books at a young age can help with brain development, vocabulary, and studies have shown even math skills.” Local authors Georgia DeBarr and Cindy Costa were on the plaza sharing their books. Representatives from the Boys & Girls Clubs of Vacaville were available to talk about their program. The Vanden High School robotics team was also

there to talk about what they do and to help build children’s interest in computer science. Officials from All About Hope also made themselves available to answer questions about their program, which gives hospitalized children and their families the tools they need to dream beyond their hospital room. Children were also given an opportunity to exchange a book they own for another made available at the plaza. They

also enjoyed games like Connect Four and were able to use the nearby playground. “Since it is National Literacy Day, we were inspired to have an event in Vacaville,” Dwyer said. “We wanted to bring awareness to literacy, so we partnered with groups like the Solano library. We couldn’t have it last year because of the pandemic, so 2019 was our first one. It was very well received by our families at the academy and people in the community.”

Bill would require more ‘ethical,’ ‘effective’ police training Daily Republic Staff drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Legislation that provides civil rights and other law enforcement training has passed the state Legislature. “I’m happy to take this important step toward addressing how law enforcement is trained to interact with the public,” Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa, said in a statement. “Because people deserve to be treated fairly and respectfully by police officers. My bill ensures they will not have their rights

trampled through demeaning or coercive tactics that can result in false confessions.” Senate Bill 494 would require the California on Commission Police Officer Stan- dodd dards and Training to create and integrate officer training on interview techniques that are “more ethical and effective at getting accurate information while avoiding false confessions. Further, it would require training to ensure everyday interactions with the public are

civil,” the statement released by Dodd’s office states. “Over the past 75 years, police have relied on a criminal interrogation strategy known as the Reid Technique, which relies heavily on assuming guilt, assessing behavioral cues of deception and administering psychological manipulation. However, studies have raised questions about the validity of the technique. A 2006 meta-analysis found the ability to correctly detect deception averaged

only 54% – about the same chances as flipping a coin,” the statement from Dodd’s office states. “Of the more than 300 people exonerated in the U.S. through post-conviction DNA testing, more than

a quarter had given false confessions, and experts say that Reid-style interrogations can produce these false confessions.” Dodd represents the state’s 3rd Senate District, which includes all

of Solano County and Winters in neighboring Yolo County, along with the majority of the county; all of Napa County; and parts of Sonoma, Contra Costa and Sacramento counties.

National Weather Service issues fire danger warning due to possible dry lightning City shuts down access to Fairfield open spaces Matt Miller mmiller@dailyrepublic.com

FAIRFIELD — The National Weather Service in Sacramento issued a fire danger warning Thursday for Solano and other Northern California counties notice – The known as a Red Flag Warning – went into place Thursday evening continues through Friday. Fairfield officials shut down access to Rockville Hills Regional Park, Spyglass Open Space and the Serpas Ranch/ Rolling Hills Open Space at sunset Thursday due to the risk of brush fires. The sites are scheduled to reopen at sunrise Saturday. Temperatures have fallen into the upper 80s, but the forecast is for a chance of scattered showers and a few isolated thunderstorms. Thunderstorms do have the potential to produce lightning as well as gusty and erratic winds. The National Weather Service in Sacramento had a fire weather warning in place Thursday before it was changed it to a fire danger warning. Thunderstorms are forecast to be quickmoving, leading to the

Wreckage from the Lightning Complex Fire burns in rural Vacaville, Aug. 19, 2020. possibility of dry lightning. The combination of isolated dry lightning and gusty winds can bring the potential for fire weather conditions. “In most cases, you could get lightning strikes with no moisture,” said Craig Shoemaker from the National Weather Service. “It would be like lighting a match into some weeds if it strikes in the area.” Temperatures topped out at 91 Wednesday in Fairfield and 101 in Vacaville. The forecase for Fair-

field calls for temeratures to decline to 85 Friday and 86 Saturday with a 20% chance of rain Friday. Temperatures in Vacaville are projected to fall to 86 Friday and 89 Saturday. Vacaville also has less than a 20% chance of rain Friday. The National Weather Service recommends that residents take fire safety precautions to prevent any additional fire. If thunder can be heard and lightning can be seen, take shelter indoors. And always have an emergency plan ready if

fire starts near home, the Sacramento office recommends. The LNU Lightning Complex Fire was the most devastating fire in Solano County history, resulting in two lives lost, 309 homes destroyed, 884 other structures lost and a burn scare of 65.275 square miles (41,776 aces). Dry lightning strikes caused many of the fires that merged into the megafire. The Red Flag Warning period started at 5 p.m. Thursday and continues through 2 p.m. Friday.

Solano reaches $7.67B property tax settlement with Genentech Daily Republic Staff drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Genentech had its property tax valuation for 2010-20 reduced by $2.14 billion after a lengthy series of appeals of the original annual assessments. The Solano County A s s e s s or -R e c or der ’s Office announced Wednesday it had reached a $7.67 billion negotiated settlement with the giant biotech firm in Vacaville. The amount represents a 22% reduction from the county’s assessed value of $9.815 billion. “Considering the high value of this facility, the evidence for the ‘opinion of value’ of each party and complex nature of the assessment, this is a fair settlement for the county and Genentech,” Assessor Marc Tonnesen said in the statement. “The settlement also avoids a potential costly and lengthy court battle between the parties.” Taxes had been collected, with some being distributed to the city, special districts and other agencies. However,

the county held back $40 million. Tonnesen said in an interview that about half of that will go back to Genentech. The rest will be distributed to the appropriate agencies, amounts to be determined by the Auditor-Controller’s Office. The settlement ends all the assessment appeals by Genentech dating back to 1997. “As was done with this most recent group of assessment appeals, prior settlements were broken into groups of years with similar circumstances, such as facility usability and market value. In Genentech’s case, portions of the facility were being kept out of productive use and the real estate market condition was greatly depressed during the Great Recession, contributing to the lower tax amount,” the Assessor’s Office stated. Genentech also benefits from an agreement it made with Vacaville to locate a facility in the city. That agreement originally included property, sales and use tax rebates

Meghan McCain’s new gig: writing for the Daily Mail Tribune Content Agency Meghan McCain is looking at a new view with her latest gig. More than a month after her departure from “The View,” the former talk show host has joined the DailyMail.com website as a columnist. Her first article will go live the week of Sept. 20. The popular U.K. tabloid’s publisher and editor in chief Martin Clarke made the announcement Thursday, promising that “Meghan’s column will be a space for her to have her uncensored say on the news of the day whether it be political, breaking news, showbiz or issues based.” The staunch Republican commentator previously served as

a columnist for The Daily Beast. “I’ve always respected the way DailyMail.com tackles issues across the entire political spectrum and I’m looking forward to sharing my own opinions without fear or favor on the important issues that matter to our readers across the globe,” the 36-year-old daughter of former war hero and late senator John McCain added. In her own statement, McCain wrote: “It’s a privilege to join the DailyMail.com team as a columnist. I’ve been an avid reader of the website for many years and have been impressed by its global influence and reach. It truly is a juggernaut.”

Today’s birthday The Venus transit coinciding with your solar return shows a shift in relationships. Some get deeper; others lighten up. Also, new subjects will fascinate you, and as you follow your changing interests, different people come into your world. The fresh influences enliven your scene and make existing ties more dear. Sagittarius and Leo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 15, 4, 44 and 39.

follows, your mood. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). No role can represent the entirety of your being. A role is something you do, not someone you are. An expansive spirit pervades your being and inspires you to handle things without defining yourself in the process. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You have built much in your life, but the current relationship will not be created through building. It will come together through allowing, granting and gaining access to another person. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). People will say just what you wanted them to. Is it as satisfying to hear as you thought it would be? Does it accomplish your original goal?

Decide what to do next with your growing influence. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). The stressful situation will pass; the problem will be solved; the transition process will be successfully completed. When they ask why you're so confident, ultimately, you will credit this experience. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). The scene may meet your standard on paper, but that doesn't mean it really fits. Try things for a while, and then decide. Take your time because this decision will alter the course. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Avoid twisting yourself up into a knot to prove how flexible and willing to please you are. Instead, walk tall and follow your own rules. Just for today, it's better to err on the side of rigidity. COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Scorpio and Virgo are a checks and balances system disguised as a couple. These two don't always bring out the best in each other, but they certainly prevent the worst. They have a way of guiding each other toward strength and health. They set examples and expectations for each other. Both signs can be extremely driven and competitive and take pleasure in the fulfillment of hopes.

California’s ‘corridor of corruption’ yields new case

he HBO network six years ago aired an episode of “True Detective,” an anthology of complicated crime stories. It was set in the fictional Southern California city of Vinci, a cesspool of corruption and crime obviously based on Vernon, once described as “the most corrupt five square miles in California.” In addition to fictionalizing Vernon’s sordid history, the episode folded in California’s bullet train project, but it was deservedly flailed by critics as incoherent. Vernon, unfortunately, is not an isolated example. The southeastern quadrant of Los Angeles County is rife with municipal malfeasance and was once dubbed a “corridor of corrupDan Walters tion” by state Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon. Numerous local officials have been charged with bribery, self-dealing and other transgressions. The Los Angeles County district attorney last week charged four men, including former state Sen. Frank Hill, with stealing $20 million that the City of Industry advanced to a company called San Gabriel Valley Water and Power LLC for a solar power project that never materialized. The case stems from a battle among several cities for control of a 2,500-acre cattle ranch called Tres Hermanos in the Chino Hills, which was to have been the project’s site. Hill, a Republican who was snared in a federal investigation of Capitol corruption three decades ago and spent four years in prison, was a consultant on the project. Others facing charges are William Barkett, owner of San Gabriel Valley Water and Power, attorney Anthony Bouza, and former Industry City Manager Paul Philips, now city manager of Bell, the scene of another corruption scandal a decade ago. Philips and Bouza allegedly handled the funds, which between 2016 and 2018 were routed to an account controlled by Barkett, according to the district attorney’s office. “While some of the money was paid to other vendors, Barkett is accused of spending about $8.3 million on personal items. He also allegedly falsified or altered invoices to inflate the amount,” the district attorney’s office said. Barkett is no stranger to questionable financial dealings. As I wrote about the Tres Hermanos squabble nine months ago, “In 1993, federal authorities unsealed an indictment of him and eight other persons involved in what was described as a penny stock scheme aimed at defrauding elderly retirees. “Two years later, the charges were dismissed by a judge, who cited unreasonable pre-trial delays by prosecutors. A decade later, Credit Suisse, an international banking company, accused Barkett of misappropriating millions of dollars he had borrowed to launch a large farming operation in the San Joaquin Valley. The suit was later dropped after a confidential settlement.” Barkett is the scion of a politically powerful Stockton family and in the interest of full disclosure, the head of the family sued me and the Sacramento Union for libel four decades ago after I wrote a column about his influence. We were exonerated by a San Joaquin County jury. The City of Industry is also no stranger to corruption allegations. The Los Angeles Times probed the city’s insular structure in 2009, revealing, as it noted last week, that “for years, the city government was headed by former Mayor Dave Perez, who owned trash-hauling and maintenance companies that racked up millions of dollars a year in contracts with the city . . . .” “An audit years later by KPMG found that Perez’s companies had made a fortune off the city, with contracts valued at more than $326 million,” the Times reported. Once again, the corridor of corruption yields a case of insider dealing, but it’s not the first.

There is the option of simply finding a job and turning that job into a career, which is actually the most common route most people take to find a career. I often encourage young job seekers to identify a company or organization that they would like to work for. I tell them to apply for an entry level position to get in. Once they are employed, I tell them to be sure to pass their three-month probationary period, which is a challenge for most youth. Statistics show that 65% of youth under the age of 25 will lose their job within 90 days. Once they have established themselves as a permanent and dependable employee, after six months to a year, I tell them to begin to seek advancement opportunities within the organization. Most companies hire from within and will in some cases accept internal job experience as an alternative to educational requirements. Most companies also offer internal training opportunities to advance within the agency, as well as tuition reimbursement. This will allow a young adult to attend college part time while they are working and gaining experience. After a few years, they will have both the education and the experience to advance through the ranks and apply for more leadership, management or even executive level position within an organization. That is how you turn a job into a career. Deon D. Price is an author and youth life skills coach who lives in Fairfield. He can be reached at thisyouthgeneration@gmail.com or www.deondprice.com.

It was pointed out that we had financial leverage over the Taliban, who had few resources of their own. In any event, even if the Americans still in Afghanistan were treated decently, however unlikely that may be, there is an even more awful event on the horizon. That would be the awful, bloody treatment that “our” Afghans would be sure to receive at the hands of the Taliban. There have already been reports of 12- and 13-year-old girls being forced into “marriage” with the Taliban warriors. For Joe Biden to claim that we have “successfully” ended our involvement in Afghanistan rings just as true as his claim that he visited the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh.

Suisun declares Lawler House surplus; no interested buyers, city planner says Amy Maginnis-Honey amaginnis@dailyrepublic.net

SUISUN CITY — The historic Lawler House, which has called Main Street home for four decades, is one of two buildings the City Council deemed surplus Tuesday. The other was the former home of California Marine Sports on Kellogg Street. The city has parties interested in this building, said John Kearns, senior planner for the city. The same can’t be said for the Lawler House. The house was inched along to the barge in 1979. It was finally ready in November 1981 for small businesses to move in. Suisun City continued to operate the Lawler House as a commercial property until 2010 when the city invited the Solano History Exploration Center and the Fairfield/ Suisun Visual Arts Association to take up residence. The visual arts association closed its gallery in the Lawler House about 18 months ago. The Solano History Exploration Center remains. All City Council members were concerned Tuesday with not letting a piece of history go but also noted

of the county’s Whistleblower Program . . . and was referred to the applicable agency.” Of the referenced issues, Covid-19 rules violations were specifically noted. “As a result, there were 15 cases reviewed this period,” the statement said. Of those 15 complaints, seven were related to possible violations of law and/ or county policy, and six were welfare fraud complaints. Another two cited management conduct. No details were provided. It was determined that seven of the 15 complaints had no merit, while five were closed due to insufficient information, the county reported. That left the two welfare fraud cases to move forward, the county reported.

The historic Lawler House was deemed surplus property by the Suisun City Council. cost had to be considered. The Lawler House has not been maintained because the city did not have the money to do so once the state dissolved redevelopment agencies across the state, according to city officials. “We spent a lot of money moving that house,” Councilman Mike Hudson said. He spoke of one visit when a part of the stairwell collapsed in his hands. The house was appraised a few years ago

at about $325,000 with an estimated repair bill of $100,000 to $125,000. “I love the Lawler House,” said Vice Mayor Alma Hernandez. City Manager Greg Folsom had noted earlier Tuesday the possibility of declaring the abode one of local significance. But moving the house disqualified it from being considered a historical place. Hernandez cited the restoration of the home on Mare Island Naval Shipyard which is now home to

Vino Godfather. “This property has a lot of damage,” Councilwoman Wanda Williams said. The need for a new roof was one example she cited. “To preserve it, our budget is so lean,” she said. “I don’t think we are in a position to take care of it as it needs to be taken care of.” The next step for the city is to provide notices the properties are surplus prior to engaging in negotiations with potential buyers.

FAIRFIELD — Two welfare fraud cases continue to be investigated among 15 complaints filed as part of Solano County’s Whistleblower Program through the Aud itor - C ont r ol ler ’s Office. “From Jan. 1, 2021, through June 30, 2021, the (Auditor-Controller’s Internal Audit) Division received 33 complaints of perceived incidences of fraud, waste and abuse, or violations of county policy or law through the Whistleblower Program,” a statement released by the county states. “Of the 33 complaints, 18 were determined not to be county whistleblower matters because the complaint failed to provide sufficient information, or the allegation was not within the scope

FAIRFIELD — The critical Covid-19 numbers in Solano County have eased since the last Public Health update Friday. The five-day daily average was 81.2 cases, a total of 406 new reports, that takes the pandemic total to 42,444, the county reported in its updated Wednesday. “It’s considerably down from the prior weeks,” Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said in a phone interview on Wednesday. Solano County had been experiencing daily rates in the 90s and as high as 110 in recent weeks. “Overall, I would say the news is good . . .

Mowers: Ban? From Page One “Gallon for gallon, these engines pollute at a substantially higher rate than other equipment and vehicles,” Berman said in presenting the bill earlier this year. The bill was supported by a coalition of groups, including the American Lung Association in California, Sierra Club California and the Union of Concerned Scientists. “There are zero-emission equivalents to all (small off-road engines) that are regulated by the California Air Resources Board, generally electric alternatives that run on batteries or plug into an outlet. Many users, including over half of household users, have

already begun the transition to zero-emission equipment,” the coalition said in a statement of support for the bill. The bill was opposed by several Republican lawmakers, like Senate GOP Leader Scott Wilk, R- Santa Clarita, who tweeted Wednedsay that AB 1346 is a bad bill that “makes life harder for landscapers.” “Banning the sale of new gas powered leaf blowers & mowers? They’re not ‘super polluters,’ but massive wildfires fueled by poor forest management sure are. Why not address those instead of picking on the little guy?” Wilk tweeted. The bill also was opposed by the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute.

From Page One significant ways,” Ryan wrote in his own words. “On that infamous day, I was an airline pilot and Air Force Reservist living and working in Massachusetts. The morning of the attack, I was driving to Westover Air Reserve Base to fly a local training mission in the C-5. Entering the gate, I heard the radio announcer talk about a small aircraft hitting the World Trade Center. He didn’t know any better because at the time, the large aircraft had disappeared into the building and all the live feed showed was smoke coming from the building,” Ryan continued. “Upon arrival at the squadron, the full impact of the event was on TV and then the second aircraft hit.” While piloting a US Airways flight, the message Ryan had been expecting flashed on the cockpit data screen: “ ‘F/O CALL UNIT’ or First Officer, call your Air Force Reserve Squadron.” Just that quickly, Ryan was reactivated into the Air Force with the 337th Airlift Squadron. He would soon return to active duty. In an interview, Ryan noted that returning to the Air Force, for what turned out to be seven years, was a blessing in disguise. “My experience was a good experience because I was able to feed my family during a furlough from the airline,” Ryan said. Because his family was so close to New York, they drove over from Massachusetts to visit, staying at the Plaza Hotel where Ryan had been housed. They would walk down to ground zero, witness the destruction and mayhem as a train of dump trucks rolled to and from the site. Because his children had grabbed the ash, the family went to a nearby TG Fridays to wash up and have dinner.

“The workers were actually brought to tears because they had not seen anyone in the restaurant for more than a month and we brought in our family,” Ryan recalls. As they walked back to The Plaza, they were greeted by Fernando de la Rua, the president of Argentina, who also was staying at the hotel. “He recognized us and said hello, and we chatted,” Ryan said. A month later, Rua would resign as civil unrest and rioting erupted in Argentina, a period that would come to be known as Argentinazo. Ryan also was able to take his son and daughter to see “The Lion King” on Broadway during their visit. “So my kids saw the best of New York and the worst of New York,” Ryan said. It was not long after that that Ryan flew a C-5 to Washington, D.C., where he picked up President George W. Bush’s limousines, his security forces and communications in advance of the president’s trip to New York. Eventually, Ryan found himself at Travis

Air Force Base, having been promoted to lieutenant colonel. The Ryans sold their Massachusetts home and moved into a rental in Fairfield, later moving on base and ultimately settled in Vacaville when he retired in 2009. “My initial plan was to fly for five years and return to my airline career as surely, after five years, they’d need me back. Unfortunately, while on furlough, the Federal Aviation Administration increased the mandatory retirement age for airline pilots from 60 to 65, effectively eliminating retirements and upward career movement for commercial airline pilots during my five-year active duty contract,” Ryan noted, again in his own written words. “My plan to fly for five years was also thwarted by the promotion. The higher in rank you go, the more you fly a desk instead of an aircraft in the Air Force. I continued to fly occasionally while serving as a C-5 evaluator pilot, squadron operations officer, interim C-5 squadron commander, and chief of wing plans,” Ryan wrote.

“I moved to the Contingency Response Wing on Travis as the chief of staff and my flying stopped. It was the right decision as the kids were in high school and we did not want to move.” After retirement in August 2009, Ryan returned to US Airways for six months, commuting to Philadelphia from San Francisco. “I was not happy. I then became the California state director of the Civil Air Patrol, flying small, single-engine aircraft and managing the operations of the one of the largest and busiest Civil Air Patrol Wings in the country,” he wrote. “About a year later, I was informed that funding was going away for my position and my wife convinced me to apply for the Emergency (Services) manager’s position in the Solano County Sheriff’s Office. I hesitated at first, but she insisted. My experience as the chief of wing plans on Travis AFB and search-and-rescue training with the Civil Air Patrol served me well in the interview process and I was hired shortly after applying.” Ryan said he thinks a lot about those days, especially as each 9/11 anniversary comes and goes – and perhaps a bit more on this, the 20th remembrance. “I do think about it because it certainly changed our lives,” Ryan said.

Vaccine: Biden pushing for mandate From Page One turning the corner,” Biden said. “We can’t allow these actions to stand in the way of protecting the large majority of Americans who have done their part and want to get back to life as normal.” Tens of millions of Americans are expected to be affected by Biden’s announcement. Employees at companies with at least 100 workers will be required to get vaccinated or submit to weekly testing. Firms that don’t comply could face $14,000 fines from the Department of Labor. Health care workers at facilities receiving Medicaid or Medicare funding and teachers who work at Head Start or Early Head Start programs will need to get their shots as well. Biden is also tightening rules for federal employees and contractors. Although they were previously allowed to choose weekly testing instead of vaccination, that will no longer be an option. Anyone who isn’t fully vaccinated within three

months could face disciplinary action, with limited exceptions. “If you want to do business with the federal government, vaccinate your workforce,” Biden said. Roughly 80 million Americans who are eligible for the vaccines have yet to get their shots. The array of mandates unveiled by Biden on Thursday suggests that administration officials have concluded that opportunities for persuasion have dwindled, and government pressure is required to increase vaccination rates. “This is not about freedom or personal choice,” Biden said. “This is about protecting yourself and those around you.” Most of Biden’s speech was geared toward soothing vaccinated Americans, who have become discouraged as the pandemic continues. But he also sent a message to people who have refused to get their shots so far. “What more is there to wait for?” he said. “What more do you need to see? We’ve made vaccinations free, safe and convenient.” Biden added, “We’ve been

patient. But our patience is wearing thin. And your refusal has cost all of us.” There’s some evidence that the administration’s efforts are gaining traction. Roughly 14 million Americans received their first dose of the vaccine in August, up from 10 million in July. More than 177 million people are fully vaccinated, according the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. However, an additional 80 million eligible Americans haven’t received their first shot months after they became widely available. The country is averaging about 1,000 deaths per day, and the economic recovery slowed dramatically in August. The struggle has dented Biden’s poll numbers. Public approval of his handling of the pandemic dropped from 69% in April to 53% in August, according to a NBC News poll released last month. Although the economy has been steadily climbing out of its pandemic-induced recession, the recovery stumbled last month,

Abortion: Law being tested in Texas From Page One it takes precedence over state constitutions. “The Department of Justice has the duty to defend the Constitution of the United States and uphold the law. Today we defend that duty,” he said. The law prohibits abortions once medical professionals can detect cardiac activity. Other states have attempted unsuccessfully to pass similar bans, but what distinguishes this one

is that it essentially taps private citizens to enforce it, allowing them to sue medical professionals or others who assist in an abortion. Plaintiffs can recover $10,000 or more in damages and have their legal fees reimbursed by the defendants. The law is structured in a way that also makes it difficult to challenge in court, frustrating abortion advocates and providers. Garland called the law “a legislative scheme specifically designed to

prevent the vindication” of women’s constitutional rights. President Joe Biden last week called the new law “almost un-American” and asked his Justice Department to examine whether it had any power to have it invalidated. “I have been and continue to be a strong supporter of Roe v. Wade, No. 1,” Biden said. “And the most pernicious thing about the Texas law, it sort of creates a vigi-

lante system.” Abortion rights advocates said the Texas law violates the Roe vs. Wade decision, which overturned a Texas abortion ban in 1973 and said women had the right to end a pregnancy. Abortion opponents have hailed the law a turning point for the movement in America. The potential for Justice Department legal action was first reported Thursday by The Wall Street Journal.

nited Airlines Flight 93 was soaring over Pennsylvania en route to Washington, D.C., on Sept. 11, 2001, when then-Defense Logistics Agency Director Navy Vice Adm. Keith Lippert ordered an announcement for all McNamara Headquarters Complex employees to shelter in the auditorium. Planes had already crashed into the twin towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, and where the fourth plane was headed only God knew. “The size of our building was a concern to me. It could’ve been a target,” Lippert said two months shy of the attack’s 20th anniversary. Fear flooded the building’s basement as workers crowded together, some openly sobbing with worry that loved ones working at the Pentagon or on temporary duty at the World Trade Center had been caught in the horror. Others gazed in shock at overhead TVs, wondering how such tragedy and blood could spill over American soil. John Morris, the former supervisor of the Document Automation Printing Service at the Pentagon, was watching news anchors report on the devastation in New York City when he and his staff heard what sounded like heavy furniture moving on the floor above. Stepping outside the office, Morris saw employees running, one warning of a bomb explosion. It was the hijacked American Airlines Flight 77 slamming into the building’s southwest corridor. Back at DLA Headquarters, Shirley Bergman, then a contract specialist for alternative fuels, agonized and wept knowing her husband was at a Marriott between the two 110-story World Trade Center towers interviewing senior economists for the U.S. Census Bureau. And Matthew Woodruff, now a general supply specialist at DLA Distribution San Joaquin was just a sophomore in high school. All but one of his teachers halted class as students watched the horrific story unfold via news broadcasts. “I still remember how vivid it was. There was a lot of stuff my parents wouldn’t even let me watch on TV because of the nature of the

Lippert made another announcement that employees should go home soon after Flight 93 crashed in a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Most were eager to return the next day even as the nation mourned and despite delays from increased security. “We always talked about warfighters first, but this really brought it home,” he said. “The whole country responded more patriotically than we’d seen in the past, and I think everyone felt the importance of what they were doing.”

Homeland Response

Employees of DLA Distribution San Joaquin are doing their part in their critical mission in support to the warfighters and first responders during the coronavirus pandemic. The San Joaquin team is working with U.S. Northern Command in support of the Federal Emergency Management Agency in DoD’s response to Covid-19 efforts. Matthew Woodruff, general supply specialist, is one of the essential employees coming to work to ensure the mission is getting done.

The Customer Interaction Center, where agents help callers place orders and find details like supply availability and delivery status, went to 24/7 operations on 9/11. Shamon Pratt, a customer service specialist who was then an agent, remembers the phone lines being eerily quiet for a couple of days before they rang off the hook, forcing management to hire more agents to handle the influx of calls. Employees across the agency scrambled to assist first responders. James Burke, a driver at DLA Distribution Norfolk volunteered to drive cots to the Pentagon for rescue crews working around the clock. Workers at DLA Distribution San Joaquin and DLA Distribution Susquehanna, Pennsylvania, immediately began supplying items like boots, first aid kits and tents. And DLA Disposition Services staff provided gear including flashlights, shirts and sleeping mats

ince 2008, the National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial has been a solemn, quiet escape for mourners to pay their respects to those who died at the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m., Sept. 11, 2001, when terrorists flew American Airlines Flight 77 into the west side of the building, killing 184 people onboard and employees inside the U.S. military headquarters. The physical damage to the Pentagon was rebuilt in less than a year. The memorial was closed Sept. 9, 2019, for renovations, and was scheduled to reopen in May 2020, but because of Covid-19 restrictions on the Pentagon Reservation and other factors, it is not yet open to the public, Sue Gough, DOD spokeswoman, said. The renovations, now complete, remedied recurring light-system failures in the pools under the memorial benches, where water seeped into the fixtures. The entire electrical system also was replaced, including all bench lighting and the electrical conduit that feeds power to the light fixtures. The memorial comprises hallowed grounds See 9/11, Page A12

On the Front Lines The agency took logistics to the battlefield by deploying DLA Support Teams to work alongside uniformed customers. By the height of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan in 2008, more than 40 employees worked on DSTs in Afghanistan, Iraq and Kuwait to provide fuel, contract management, disposal services and asset visibility while fielding the latest body armor. Marian Hunter, a weapons systems support manager for DLA Aviation, deployed nine times before retiring in 2017. Being able to attend unit maintenance meetings and talk face-to-face with troops helped her better solve issues. “The end result is what we all want – well-equipped, well-protected warfighters,” she said then. Woodruff is another of the hundreds of DLA employees who’ve since left home to support forces in harm’s way. He deployed for eight months in April 2011 to DLA Distribution’s theater consolidating shipping point at Forward Operating Base Deh Dadi II, where he helped distribute the material to units on the ground.

It was the littlest things – screws, washers, o-rings – that had the biggest impact there,” he said. “When you realize the part you help provide means there’s one less helicopter down, it becomes more than just a job.”

The Human Toll Twenty years after the tragedy that tested DLA’s ability to support simultaneous wars, Lippert still remembers stepping into the Pentagon one day after the attack. He was there to meet with senior officials on the amount of money DLA would

Those attacks remain the deadliest terrorist act in America’s history, and aftershocks of the atrocity ripple through lives even today. Like Lippert, current

DLA Director Navy Vice Adm. Michelle Skubic points to employees’ courage, patriotism and resilience. “Just like the workforce of today, they understood that on America’s worst day, DLA must be at its best,” she said this week in a message to the agency. The sharp memories of 9/11 urge employees like Woodruff to continually rededicate themselves to DLA’s mission. American pride is alive and strong among DLA’s members. “9/11 taught us that we need to be resilient and not become complacent,” Woodruff said. “It’s like a game of chess. We need to be steps ahead of our adversaries.”

mong the more indelible images to emerge on September 11, 2001 was the sight of two planes crashing into the North and South Towers of the World Trade Center. Still photos and video footage of those planes flying into the Twin Towers were the first images of the attacks many Americans saw, and no one who watched events unfold that morning will ever forget those images. Though both the North and South Towers fell on that day, today the site where each tower once stood is a serene retreat in the bustling lower Manhattan neighborhood that was shaken to its core on the day of the attacks. The 9/11 Memorial was designed by architect Michael Arad and landscape architect Peter Walker. The 9/11 Memorial and Museum notes that Arad and Walker’s proposal was chosen in a design competition that featured 5,201 submissions from 63 countries. The 9/11 Memorial is located on the western side of the formal World Trade Center where the Twin Towers once stood. Two enormous reflecting pools are part of the Memorial Plaza, which is where the North and South Towers once stood. The pools feature the two largest man-made waterfalls in North America. Around the edges of the pools, the names of people who were killed in the 9/11 attacks in New York, the Pentagon, on Flight 93, and in the 1993 bombing at the World Trade Center are etched in bronze. In recognition of the crash sites, 400 swamp white oak trees were selected from nurseries located in New York, Pennsylvania and near Washington, D.C. These trees are located throughout the Memorial Plaza, providing a peaceful respite separate from the surrounding city. The Memorial Plaza also includes one Callery pear tree. That tree was discovered at Ground Zero weeks after the attacks and it was severely damaged. The tree, now known as the Survivor Tree, was nursed back to health by members of the New York City Parks and Recreation Department and returned to the World Trade Center site in 2010, where it still stands as an enduring symbol of resilience and perseverance. The 9/11 Memorial is free and open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. More information about the 9/11 Memorial and the 9/11 Memorial and Museum can be found at www.911memorial.org.

‘Today, our nation saw evil, the very worst of human nature.’ — President George W. Bush, Sept. 11, 2001

20 years later

President George W. Bush’s address to the nation on Sept. 11, 2001 Metro Services

n the evening of Sept. 11, 2001, United States President George W. Bush addressed a nation that earlier that day witnessed the deadliest terrorist attacks in world history. That morning, hijackers took control of four airplanes, ultimately crashing two into the Twin Towers at the World Trade Center in New York City and another into the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. A fourth hijacked plane crashed in a field near the town of Shanksville, Pennsylvania after passengers and crew attempted to regain control of the plane from the hijackers. All passengers and crew on board all four flights died on September 11, and thousands of others on the ground lost their lives that day as well. It was under those conditions that President Bush delivered the following speech to a shaken nation.

Good evening. Today, our fellow citizens, our way of life, our very freedom came under attack in a series of deliberate and deadly terrorist acts. The victims were in airplanes, or in their offices; secretaries, businessmen and women, military and federal workers; moms and dads, friends and neighbors. Thousands of lives were suddenly ended by evil, despicable acts of terror. The pictures of airplanes flying into buildings, fires burning, huge structures collapsing, have filled us with disbelief, terrible sadness, and a quiet, unyielding anger. These acts of mass murder were intended to frighten our nation into chaos and retreat. But they have failed; our country is strong. A great people has been moved to defend a great nation. Terrorist attacks can shake the foundations of our biggest buildings, but they cannot touch the foundation of America. These acts shattered steel, but they cannot dent the steel of American resolve. America was targeted for attack because we’re the brightest beacon for freedom and opportunity in the world. And no one will keep that light from shining. Today, our nation saw evil, the very worst of human nature. And we responded with the best of America – with the daring of our rescue workers, with the caring for strangers and neighbors who came to give blood and help in any way they could. Immediately following the first attack, I implemented our government’s emergency response plans. Our military is powerful, and it’s prepared. Our emergency teams are working in New York City and Washington, D.C. to help with local rescue efforts. Our first priority is to get help to those who have been injured, and to take every precaution to protect our citizens at home and around the world from further attacks. The functions of our government continue without interruption.

Federal agencies in Washington which had to be evacuated today are reopening for essential personnel tonight, and will be open for business tomorrow. Our financial institutions remain strong, and the American economy will be open for business, as well. The search is underway for those who are behind these evil acts. I’ve directed the full resources of our intelligence and law enforcement communities to find those responsible and to bring them to justice. We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them. I appreciate so very much the members of Congress who have joined me in strongly condemning these attacks. And on behalf of the American people, I thank the many world leaders who have called to offer their condolences and assistance. America and our friends and allies join with all those who want peace and security in the world, and we stand together to win the war against terrorism. Tonight, I ask for your prayers for all those who grieve, for the children whose worlds have been shattered, for all whose sense of safety and security has been threatened. And I pray they will be comforted by a power greater than any of us, spoken through the ages in Psalm 23: “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me.” This is a day when all Americans from every walk of life unite in our resolve for justice and peace. America has stood down enemies before, and we will do so this time. None of us will ever forget this day. Yet, we go forward to defend freedom and all that is good and just in our world. Thank you. Good night, and God bless America.

How TV, movies helps us process the 9/11 tragedy

Crossword

Tribune Content Agency Somewhere in the middle of "Worth," the new Netflix drama about the real-life September 11 Victim Compensation Fund, attorney Ken Feinberg (played with restraint by Michael Keaton) realizes that math alone won't be able to calculate what is owed for nearly 3,000 lives lost. To convince family members to accept a financial settlement instead of suing the airlines involved – which could trigger an economic catastrophe – the man in charge of the government's plan will need to drop his clinical approach and listen to their stories, show compassion for their pain and understand the full scope of what they've suffered. "I know, I know, I know. We're in the weeds here. That's where we should be," says Feinberg as he explains to his firm's staff why he is about to make the process that much harder to endure. "Worth" conveys the agonizing aftermath of 9/11, the national tragedy that occurred 20 years ago this week. Numerous TV specials are timed to the anniversary because it is important to remember what happened. But memories aren't limited to every five or 10 years. For two decades now, Americans have been processing their sense of fear, outrage and grief through scores of movies, TV shows and documentaries impacted by that fateful day in 2001. The effect of 9/11 on popular culture has been huge, but not transforming. The sense of unity the nation felt immediately after the tragedy didn't last. The predictions that irony was over and gratuitous violence would lessen on the screen didn't come true. After the terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, it felt as if everything would change. Yet here we are, still in the weeds and turning to artists and entertainers to make sense of it all. Those of us old enough to recall that morning can remember turning on the TV and keeping it on for wall-to-wall news coverage. It seemed like regular programming would never return. When the shows did resume, it was stunning to discover that performers like late-night host David Letterman were as shaken as we were. "It's terribly sad here in New York City," said Letterman on Sept. 17, 2001, his first day back on the CBS "Late Show.'" He delivered a somber, lengthy monologue that came from the heart and captured the sorrow and determination of the place he called "the greatest city in the world." The New York Daily News described it as "one of the purest, most honest and impor-

Michael Keaton and Stanley Tucci in “Worth.” tant moments in TV history." Despite critics musing that comedy might never be the same, some laughter soon felt appropriate. It would take years before something like 2008's "Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay" would be conceivable. But less than a month after 9/11, "Saturday Night Live" dared to air a sketch in which Will Ferrell wore an American flag-patterned Speedo to an office meeting. It was a cathartic, hilarious statement on the limits of public displays of patriotism. The disrespect wasn't toward the tragedy, just our lame attempts to cope with it. The responses to 9/11 ran the gamut of creativity from the raw grace of Bruce Springsteen's "The Rising," the 2002 song about a firefighter walking up the floors of the World Trade Center in a courageous attempt to save others, to the sarcastic fury of Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11," a 2004 cinematic diatribe against the George W. Bush administration's pursuit of the Iraq war. On the Fox series "24," which arrived in November 2001, terrorist plots drove the intense action as special agent Jack Bauer (a seethingly urgent Kiefer Sutherland) chased villains who often were Muslim and inflicted torture in between commercial breaks. A decade later, Showtime's "Homeland" offered a more sophisticated, conflicted version of a reckless hero, troubled CIA agent Mathison (Claire Carrie Danes). Even with its highbrow aims, "Homeland" offered the same problematic depictions of Muslims and off-the-books tactics for forcing suspects to spill their secrets. For every stereotypical story line, there were others that strived for the truth about the post-9/11 world, including 2008's Oscar-winning "The Hurt Locker," which chronicled the emotional toll a mission takes on a soldier (Jeremy Renner) tasked with defusing explosive devices in Iraq, and 2004-11's "Rescue Me," the bawdy FX dramedy focused

on a New York City firefighter (Denis Leary) who self-medicates his survivor's guilt with drugs, alcohol and overall bad behavior. And for each script with a caricature of a Muslim man or woman, there were authentic voices speaking up for inclusion and fairness. In March 2017, Riz Ahmed, who'd go on to earn a 2021 best actor Oscar nod for "Sound of Metal," gave a speech to Britain's House of Commons that addressed the importance of diversity in television. "People are looking for the message that they belong, that they are part of something . . . and that despite, or perhaps because of, their experience, they are valued. They want to feel represented. In that task, we have failed," said Ahmed. His remarks were mentioned in a 2019 BBC article headlined "How Muslims Became the Good Guys on TV." It cited the move away from demonized Muslim characters and toward positive, multi-faceted characters being portrayed by actors like Zeeko Zaki, who plays special agent Omar Adom Zidan on the CBS hit "FBI," Ramy Youssef of Hulu's "Ramy" and Kumail Nanjiani of the indie rom-com hit "The Big Sick" and the upcoming Marvel movie "Eternals." Some filmmakers attempted to re-create what it was like to be one of the victims of unfathomable horror. In 2006, "United 93" took viewers inside the flight that crashed in a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, before reaching a target. The movie chronicled the heroism of passengers who, aware of the intent of the hijackers, banded together to stop further destruction. Made by acclaimed director Paul Greengrass, it was almost too accurate to bear. Taking the opposite approach, Oliver Stone's "World Trade Center," a 2006 drama about two police officers who were trapped by rubble yet survived the ordeal, attempted to be a feel-good saga. But how can a tale resonate as hopeful when scars run so deep and inevitably evoke the deaths.

In the auction, West did not open one no-trump because that would have shown 12-14 points. West’s double on the second round promised three-card heart support and any strength. His next double was for takeout, indicating extra values, and his third double was for penalty! East felt like a helpless passenger. What did West lead? At the other 14 tables in a duplicate, West opened one no-trump. This was passed out 10 times. Four Souths overcalled in spades, and North knew not to raise. West led a lethal trump. When the opposition is not overladen with high cards, they are hoping to score lots of trump tricks. Leading that suit will usually be the most effective defense. West might have started with the ace and another trump, but he preferred the spade five. On a really good day, East would have had the singleton king! South won on the board, took the top hearts and played a diamond. West won with his king, cashed the spade ace and led his last trump. Now declarer had to lose one spade, two hearts, one diamond and one club to go down one, minus 200, and a round zero for North-South. They needed to be nonvulnerable.

Falcons take 2, give Williams 300th win as coach Daily Republic staff

LOCAL REPORT

SPORTS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

ROCKVILLE — The Solano Community College volleyball team gave Darla Williams her 300th career victory as coach of the Falcons by defeating Diablo Valley and Butte in the Solano Classic No. 1, Wednesday. The Falcons (4-4) rolled past Bay Valley Conference rival DVC, 25-11, 25-13, 25-8. Sammy Brown led with 17 kills, and added 11 digs and one block; Kailyn Kaiser led the defense with 13 digs, serving 14 of 14 with five aces; Anaya

Rodriguez led the team with six aces, and added 13 assists and seven digs; and Jeryn Baldonado was consistent with 14 assists, 10 digs and serving 6 of 6 with two aces. “It was a team effort,” Williams said. “Everyone contributed and we pulled out the win. It was nice to get our first (home) win after 18 months off in our gym.” The win over Butte was also a 3-0 sweep, though the set scores were closer: 25-22, 25-19, 25-19. Baldonado ran the offense with

21 assists and added three aces; Mylei Moli had a solid night at the serving line, going 13 of 13 with four aces; Kaiser roamed the back row again with 16 digs, serving 7 of 7 with one ace; Brown was a force at the net with 12 kills and added 10 digs; Rodriguez added offense and versatility with nine kills, 11 assists, three blocks and eight digs; and Gina Garlick controlled the net with four blocks. “We came from behind in the first set to pull out a victory,” Williams said. “After that we stayed strong and never looked back. This was a great win, and great challenge. Butte College is

a very solid team and ranked in Northern California, two spots ahead of us.” The Falcons travel to Stockton to play in the Delta Tournament Friday and Saturday before hosting American River and Santa Rosa in the Solano Classic No. 2 on Wednesday.

Steve Stricker acknowledges the crowd on 18 after finishing the second round 2-under for the day at the

Bridgestone Senior Players Championship at Firestone Country Club, June 25, in Akron, Ohio.

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

Ryder Cup without fans is worthless to anyone not named Bryson DeChambeau, who might prefer a return to Covid-19 empty galleries given that a fortnight hence “Brooksie” could make history by becoming the first U.S. player to get jeered by his own countrymen. DeChambeau births hecklers like the Duggars birth humans. Add the Ryder Cup, a maternity ward of meanness unlike anything in golf, and the atmosphere at Whistling Straits beginning Sept. 24 would make Dave Chappelle blush. That is exactly why the PGA of America postponed the biennial event from 2020 to 2021. Without fans, the Ryder Cup would be a snoozer. “The players didn’t

ANALYSIS want the Ryder Cup without fans, because the fans make it,” said Dave Shedloski, a Golf Digest contributor based in Columbus who will be making his 12th appearance at the event. “If the Euros can get under Bryson’s skin, let them.” That shouldn’t be too hard. DeChambeau increasingly shows signs of being annoyed by overserved fans, which prompted a sympathetic PGA Tour to issue a warning to mouthy spectators: you will be removed for raining ridicule on any player’s 18-hole parade. But such threats hold no sway at the Ryder Cup, over which the tour has little jurisdiction. “Not a lot of behavioral police will be out there,” Shedloski said, adding that Golf Digest once ran

a campaign called “Be Nice to Monty,” which sought to soften fans’ heckling of Scottish golfer Colin Montgomerie. “The idea was to bring a little more decorum, but that’s not what the Ryder Cup is. It’s a football game, or better yet a rugby match. It’s a verbal scrum city.” Who knows if DeChambeau blows a fuse when European fans, and undoubtedly some Yanks, pelt him with “Brooksie,” a taunt meant as a non-flattering comparison to DeChambeau antagonist Brooks Koepka? More clear is that DeChambeau’s teammates won’t get caught up in the fireworks. United States captain Steve Stricker made sure of that on Wednesday when he announced his six at-large picks, four of them Ryder Cup rookies, to go with the six automatic qualifiers. The six captain’s picks – Jordan Spieth, Tony Finau,

Daniel Berger, Harris English, Xander Schauffele and Scottie Scheffler – collectively rank low on drama. Spieth can get animated, and Berger burns hot internally, but no one will confuse this band for Spinal Tap. I generally like the picks, although I was pulling for Kevin Na to get a spot. Pairing the slow-paced Na and his putting theatrics – the 37-year-old likes to walk-in his putts – with the slow-paced DeChambeau and his sometimes irritating on-course behavior would have driven the Euros batty. Stricker also bypassed Patrick Reed, a bit of a surprise in that Reed, who is coming off an illness, likes to ramp up the U.S. vs. them emotion. But as Shedloski correctly noted, how has that worked out for the good old U.S. of A? See Stricker, Page B12

Week 4 prep football capsules Armijo (1-2) vs. Woodland (3-0)

When: Today, 7:30 p.m. Where: Woodland High Series: Woodland leads 7-4 Last meeting: 1975, Armijo won 24-6 Last week: Armijo defeated Mission of San Francisco, 12-0; Woodland defeated River City, 40-7 Of note: The Royals got Don Mosley his first win as head coach against Mission last week and will look to get him his first road victory this week. The task will be a tough one as Armijo goes up against an unbeaten Wolves team that’s outscored its first three opponents 78-23. . . . Last week’s win was closer than the final 12-point margin as, against Mosley’s wishes, the Royals threw for a 37-yard TD on the final play of the game. If you go: Take Interstate 80 east and

Highway 113 north to Woodland. Turn left on East Main Street and follow Main to West Street. Turn right on West. The school is at the corner of West and East Beamer streets at 21 North West Street. Prediction: Woodland 25-6

Fairfield (0-1) vs. Center (1-1) When: Today, 7:15 p.m. Where: Center High, Antelope Series: First meeting Last week: Fairfield lost to Vallejo, 24-7; Center lost to Ripon, 34-22 Of note: The Falcons played their first game in 672 days and acquitted themselves well despite extending their school-record losing streak to 20 games. That gives them the longest losing streak among any of the current members of the Monticello Empire League. They had been tied with Will C. Wood, which lost its first

19 games – all 10 in its inaugural 1990 season and the first nine in 1991) before edging Vintage 18-14 in the season finale. By comparison, Armijo’s longest losing streak was 17 games (200911); Vacaville’s longest was 14 games (1952-54); Rodriguez’s longest was 10 games (2002-03 and 2014-15); and Vanden’s longest was eight games (2006-07). . . . Fairfield’s points last week came on an 85-yard kickoff return by David “DJ” Johnson in the third quarter and Javier Garcia’s conversion kick. . . . Stats aren’t available for the Cougars, but they’ve proven they can score by their 68-7 demolition of Rio Linda in their opener. If you go: Take Interstate 80 east to Watt Avenue. Go north on Watt. The school is at the intersection of Watt and Center Ct Ln with the school’s address 3111 Center Ct Ln. Prediction: Center 60-7

CHICAGO — Kris Bryant’s baseball career is connected by so many threads, it’s a rich tapestry of names — many Giantsrelated, making his trade to the team July 30 all the more apropos. Bryant’s favorite player growing up was Barry Bonds – that’s well known. But another formative influence was Giants third baseman Evan Longoria. As a teen, Bryant attended a baseball showcase at Moorpark College in Southern California – run by now-Giants manager Gabe Kapler. And while in the Boston organization, Bryant’s dad, Mike, worked out in the offseason with Carl Yastrzemski, whose grandson, Mike, is the Giants’ right fielder. “It’s kind of like coming full circle,” Bryant said of now playing for the club that already seemed so woven into his life and the one to

which he said he’d hoped he’d go at the deadline. Even as he settles in with his new team, Bryant will get to say a proper goodbye to his old one this weekend. The Giants will play a three-game series against the Cubs starting Friday at Wrigley Field, and Bryant will be the focal point. He was a major figure in Chicago, earning Rookie of the Year in 2015 and MVP a year later as he helped the Cubs to their first World Series title since 1908. “It’ll be nice to get there and close that chapter of the book,” he said. Bryant was traded when the Cubs were in Washington, so “I didn’t really get that closure, you could say. It’s nice to go back so quickly and see some of the people that I didn’t get a chance to say bye to: the workers and staff at the field, the security staff, people that just made my family’s lives and mine See Bryant, Page B7

A’s take series from White Sox behind Sean Manaea’s outing Tribune Content Agency Reynaldo López did not hazard a third pickoff throw. Starling Marte seized his chance. Marte broke from first base on a 2-1 pitch. Catcher Seby Zavala, fighting the odds, fired a throw to second. A headfirst slide carried Marte across the bag. The call returned: out. It was jarring for the novelty. Matt Olson, in the batter’s box, turned to Zavala and shook his head with a smile. The A’s made their dissent formal, requesting a review that showed Marte’s left hand reached the base pre-tag. Marte stayed perfect in 22 stolen-base tries with Oakland. He was not done running. An earlier A’s rally had fizzled with López picking a runner off second. The right-hander tried it again and his throw escaped into center field. Marte sped home. Olson, who had walked, took third and scored on

a sacrifice fly. The thirdinning sequence gave the A’s a lead they did not relinquish in a 3-1 win. Oakland has sought a spark amid a late-season lull. A series win over the AL Central leaders can perhaps provide it. The A’s next nine games are against sub-.500 teams. They are even with Seattle at 5 1/2 games back of Houston and play only those two teams the final two weeks. “It’s huge,” said starter Sean Manaea. “Those guys (Chicago) are a playoff team. So I mean anytime you get a team like that, it’s a good indication of how we stack up. So playing against those guys and getting these last two wins was huge and definitely, I think, a big momentum push for us.” Manaea delivered a second strong outing after his August struggles.

so much easier over the years. Those are probably the people that are more important to say thank you to, because they don’t get the recognition that they deserve.” The fan reaction should be warm; Bryant was a popular figure with the Cubs even with a little controversy to start his career, when agent Scott Boras chided the team over Bryant’s service time. “That six, seven years in Chicago are some of the best of my life,” Bryant said. “Definitely tons of ups and certainly some downs, too, in terms of some stories and things that are out there, But

against lefties, he subdued it for seven innings. He notched nine strikeouts in each of his last two starts. “Being aggressive,” Manaea said. “Really establishing my fastball and throwing it with conviction. I feel like I was getting away from that and worrying about too many different things. So I feel like I’ve really simplified things and just gone out there and I keep telling myself to be aggressive with all my pitches.” Manaea wielded good velocity Thursday. His fastball touched 96 mph and averaged 1.2 mph above his season mean. He and catcher Sean Murphy used it often; 73 of Manaea’s 101 pitches were fastballs. White Sox hitters swung at 40, missing nearly as many (10) as they put into play (12). César Hernández struck a one-out double in the third and scored as José Abreu lined a single to center. Manaea retired 11 of his next 12 hitters, erasing the lone exception – Abreu, who singled in the sixth – on a double play. He retired his first two batters in the seventh, an inning he did not reach in any of five August starts. A close two-strike fastball to Billy Hamilton was ruled a ball. Hamilton drove his next pitch into the gap in left-center for a triple. Manaea fell behind 3-0 to Danny Mendick. Oakland’s bullpen stirred for the first time. Manaea threw two final fastballs and Mendick lined out on the last. “You know what, just stepped up,” manager Bob Melvin said of Manaea’s last two starts. “This time of year, you tend to be a little bit tired, and the last two starts it’s been anything but for him.”

that will never change my opinion of what I feel about the city and the people in the organization. Even the people that some people thought have wronged me, I have a tremendous amount of respect for.” Bryant comes into town with the Giants’ playoff spot all but assured as the majors’ first team to 90 wins. “I just find it funny that this team was projected to win, whatever, 75 games – you know we have a chance to win 100,” Bryant said. “That just goes to show you that projections and things like that don’t matter. I don’t know if anybody else here is getting a kick out of that but me.

Hearing that on the broadcast daily, I just get a little chuckle.” Bryant has played four positions with the Giants, and he’s batting .265 with six homers, 14 RBIs and 17 runs in 31 games with them. The team is 26-11 since acquiring Bryant, and the experience has been even better than he’d imagined. Bryant said when he arrived in San Francisco that he could see it being a place he’d like to stay as he approaches free agency this winter, and the results have done nothing but reinforce that. “I can’t say enough about the staff here, the city, too,” he said. “I love, love, love my time so far.” Among the

delights: becoming teammates with Longoria. “The other day before the game, we were in the batting cage and I was tossing the ball with him and actually thinking, ‘This is funny. I had your walk-up music and glove model (throughout college) – this is cool; I’m playing on a big-league team with you.’ ” Bryant also still has a giveaway white glove from the Moorpark College “Gabe Kapler Games” when he was a sophomore in high school – Bryant’s mom, Susie, sent him a photo of the glove the day he was traded to the Giants. “I used that glove all through high school,” Bryant said.

UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier's check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the accrued principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. BENEFICIARY MAY BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): ELIZABETH A. WORTHY, AN UNMARRIED WOMAN Recorded: 3/26/2009 as Instrument No. 200900022243 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of SOLANO County, California; Date of Sale: 9/27/2021 at 9:30AM Place of Sale: At the Santa Clara Street entrance to the City Hall located at 555 Santa Clara Street, Vallejo, CA 94590 Amount of accrued balance and other charges: $616,544.92 The purported property address is: 4349 OLIVE AVENUE, FAIRFIELD, CA 94533 Assessor's Parcel No. : 0038-180-060 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 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the trustee: CA-19-869349-NJ. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: 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 916-9390772, or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-19-869349-NJ 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. If you think you may qualify as an "eligible tenant buyer" or "eligible bidder," you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. The undersigned trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder's sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the mortgagor, the mortgagee, or the mortgagee's attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right's against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations.

Rodriguez (2-0) vs. Napa (0-1) When: Today, 7 p.m. Where: Memorial Stadium, Napa Series: Napa leads 6-0 Last meeting: 2016, Napa won 48-0 Last week: Rodriguez had a bye; Napa lost to Wood, 34-14 Of note: Break up the Mustangs. They’re already the first Rodriguez team to start out a season 2-0 and are looking to extend that streak and get its first win over Napa. Myles King is also the first Mustangs coach to start out 2-0. . . . Rodriguez has dropped all six meetings in the series by an average score of 52-8. Napa’s won the last three meetings by a combined 141-0. . . . To get first that win, the Mustangs will need to find a way to stop TE Christoph Horton, a 6-foot4, 205 pound New Mexico commit. In last week’s loss to Wood, Horton hauled in five passes for 97 yards and both of the Grizzlies touchdowns. QB Anthony Tubridy completed 11 of 30 passes for 170 yards, with Carlos Mata doing the bulk of the damage on the ground with 91 yards on 22 carries. . . . Napa, meanwhile, must pay attention to Rodriguez’s Jamoryon Johnson, who caught three passes for 102 yards, including a 71-yard bomb for a touchdown on the second play of the game, against American Canyon. QB Miles Meadows completed 6 of 13 passes for 127 yards with RB Keith Gallon bulling his way to 56 yards on 14 carries and one TD. If you go: Take Highway 12 west into Napa, where it merges with Highway 29. Follow Highway 29 north to Lincoln Avenue. Turn right on Lincoln and take an immediate left on California Boulevard. Turn right on Myrtle Avenue, which will take you into the Memorial Stadium parking lot. Prediction: Napa 28, Rodriguez 24

Vanden (3-0) vs. Foothill (2-0) When: Today, 7 p.m. Where: Foothill High, Pleasanton Series: First meeting Last week: Vanden defeated Burbank, 50-6; Foothill defeated College Park, 43-27 Of note: Vanden’s pass defense will face its toughest test, at least in the regular season, against Foothill, for which Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford once played. In last week’s win over College Park, former Fairfield wrestling coach Rocco Cardinale’s alma mater, QB Nick Walsh completed 19 of 27 passes for 188 yards and 6 TDs caught by 5 different receivers. All told, 8 different Falcons caught passes, none with more than 4 receptions and none for more than 64 yards. Foothill had trouble running the ball, however, managing 74 yards on 25 carries against their opponents, also the Falcons. . . . College Park actually outgained Foothill 376-265, the former forcing four turnovers, three of them interceptions. . . . Since falling behind Yuba City 20-0 in the first quarter of the season opener, Vanden has outscored its three opponents 136-19 over the last 11 quarters. . . . RB Cameron Fisherman led Vanden’s offense last week by rushing for 102 yards on 10 carries,

while Erick A. Diez returned an interception 30 yards for a touchdown, Jamai East ran back a fumble 42 yards for a TD and Brayden Chavez capped the scoring with an 82-yard kickoff return, a big reason the Vikings had just 25 offensive plays in the game. If you go: Take Interstate 680 to Pleasanton and take the Bernal Avenue exit. Turn left on Bernal and turn right on Foothill Road. Foothill High will be on the right at 4375 Foothill Road. Prediction: Foothill 38, Vanden 35

Vacaville (2-1) vs. Granite Bay (2-1) When: Today, 7 p.m. Where: Granite Bay High Series: Granite Bay leads 8-7-1 Last meeting: 2019, Vacaville won, 28-16 Last week: Vacaville lost to Cardinal Newman, 20-13, in overtime; Granite Bay lost to Jesuit, 28-14 Of note: The rivalry with the Grizzlies is one of the hottest for the Bulldogs, though the final scores haven’t always that close. No team has won more than two straight and Granite Bay holds an 8-7 edge since their first meeting in 2004 ended in a 37-37 draw, the last tie in Vacaville history. And with overtime now employed by the Sac-Joaquin Section, it will remain the Bulldogs’ final draw. . . . After opening 2-0, the Grizzles couldn’t get things going against Jesuit last week, rushing for just 68 yards on 31 carries – led by Jayce Latson with 71 yards on 17 carries, while QB Noah Mitcheom was 4 of 12 for 54 yards. . . . On defense, Granite Bay gave up 157 yards rushing and 88 passing. . . . The Bulldogs stayed No. 12 in the maxpreps.com NorCal Rankings despite their loss to Cardinal Newman, which is now ranked 11th. Darian Leon-Guerrero rushed 25 times for 145 yards and QB Ryan Vaughan completed 11 of 21 passes for 154 yards, 80 on 1 TD toss to Cameron Malone. . . . The Bulldogs outgained the Cardinals 339-266, but turnovers at bad times were critical. If you go: Take Interstate 80 east to Roseville and exit at Douglas Boulevard East. Stay on Douglas Boulevard eastbound for about three miles. Turn right on Sierra College Boulevard. Turn left on East Roseville Parkway. Turn left on Wellington Way. Look for the school on the right at 1 Grizzly Way. Prediction: Vacaville 24, Granite Bay 20

Wood (2-1) vs. Chavez (1-2) When: Today, 7:30 p.m. Where: Wildcat Stadium, Wood High Series: First meeting Last week: Wood defeated Napa, 34-14; Chavez lost to Lodi, 40-7 Of note: The Wildcats earned a win over Napa last week that was impressive on many levels. QB Baxter Ken Tilford ran for 163 yards and threw for 62, RB Jayjay Olaes ran for 130 yards, and Krishna Clay followed up a 40-yard field goal with a 52 yarder that left everyone wondering the latter boot was the longest in school history. The defense was also stout, allowing Napa QB Anthony Tubridy to complete

36.7 percent of his passes (11 of 30) for 170 yards and 2 TDs and 121 yards rushing. . . . Chavez QB Luis Rodriguez completed 13 of 22 passes for 109 yards, 33 coming on a TD toss to Raiden Comeaux for the Titans’ lone score of the game. RB Rueben Hooks rushed 27 times for 93 yards. Prediction: Wood 34, Chavez 13

Rio Vista (2-1) vs. Winters (1-1) When: Today, 7 p.m. Where: Rio Vista High Series: Winters leads 3-1 (since 2000) Last meeting: 2019, Rio Vista won, 27-26 Last week: Rio Vista defeated Big Valley Christian, 37-0; Winters lost to St. Helana, 34-21 Of note: The Rams used a balanced attack to blast Big Valley Christian last week, rushing for 226 yards while QB Diego Torres completed 5 of 9 passes for 101 yards and 2 TDs. Marco Carrillo ran for 38 yards and 1 TD while adding a 46-yard TD reception. Samuel Lara led the rushing attack with 89 yards and a TD, including a 48-yard burst, and had a short TD reception, and Josh Davis ran 6 times for 46 yards and a TD, adding 2 catches for a team-high 48 receiving yards. . . . Winters enjoyed the total yardage edge on St. Helena last week, 431-415, but fell short on the scoreboard. Warriors QB Matt Moore completed 19 of 33 passes for 327 yards and 2 TDs, rushing 3 times for 34 yards and 1 TD. Ethan Judd caught 6 passes for 165 yards and 2 TDs. Prediction: Rio Vista 30, Winters 24

Vaca Christian (3-0) vs. Gustine (0-0) When: Today, 7:15 p.m. Where: Gustine High Series: First meeting Last week: Vacaville Christian defeated Lower Lake, 34-0; Gustine had a bye. Of note: The Falcons will be looking to record a third straight shutout for the first time since 2008. LB Bryce Pazdel led the way with 8 tackles, 6 of them solo, while Zack Mercado recorded 3 sacks and had 4 quarterback hurries. QB Hunter Jackson completed 6 of 12 passes for 137 yards and 1 TD, while Dominique Ruff led the rushers with 83 yards on 7 carries, Levi West added 82 yards on 5 carries and Wesley Krier ran for 46 yards and 2 TDs on 8 carries. Gustine, which has yet to play this season, went 3-2 in the spring, 3-0 in the Southern League. The Reds return 4 starters with Gio Quezada starting at quarterback. If you go: Take Highway 12 east to Interstate 5. Take I-5 south and exit at Highway 140. Take Highway 140 east to its merger with Highway 33. Turn left and follow both into Gustine. Turn left on West Avenue and take it to North Avenue. The school is at the intersection of West and North Avenue at 501 North Avenue. Prediction: Vacaville Christian 34, Gustine 14 Last week’s prediction record: 4-3; Season record:16-5 — Paul Farmer

Stricker: 6 picks From Page B6 Not well. Europe has won nine of the past 12 Ryder Cups. Playing things emotionally closer to the vest may be the better way to go. Stricker’s own personality is decidedly low drama, so go with what you know. “You can wear yourself out with all the emotion of it,” Shedloski said. No fear of that happening with this U.S. team. The automatic qualifiers joining the at-large flat-liners are Cup rookie Collin Morikawa (average pulse), Dustin Johnson (no pulse), DeChambeau (rapid pulse), Brooks Koepka (slight pulse), Justin Thomas (slightly rapid pulse) and rookie Patrick Cantlay (no pulse). The talent among those six is unquestionable, but there are concerns. Morikawa has been nursing a sore back and Koepka may not even be available after injuring his wrist at last week’s Tour Championship. Further, of the top six only Cantlay and DeChambeau have been in exceptional form. “The strongest guys haven’t looked that good,” Shedloski agreed.

That said, the sum may be greater than the parts as long as one of the parts acts like his normal self. Spieth is the key to the U.S. team, serving a passionate leader who can bridge between the top six and at-large picks. It also does not hurt that he is 7-2-2 in Ryder Cup team play (although 0-3 in singles matches) and 8-5-1 in Presidents Cup team play for a cumulative 15-7-3 record in team competition. “I like Jordan. He’s a good leader. Quiet, but good,” Shedloski said. I like Finau, and not just because as a long hitter his game sets up well at what is a bomber’s course. Someone needs to keep DeChambeau balanced when the heckling happens, and Finau is so nice he won’t roll his eyes when DeChambeau uses him as a shoulder to cry on. As for who plays locker room traffic cop in the DeChambeauKoepka feud, well, that’s why Phil Mickelson is a vice captain. Lefty is just loosey enough to lighten the mood. I’m picking the Yanks to win. Barely.
