TRAVIS AIR FORCE BASE — The 2021 POW/MIA Remembrance Run at Travis Air Force Base kicked off at 11 a.m. Thursday, and the beginning pack of first sergeants rounded the track proudly waving the Stars and Stripes as well as the black National League of Families POW/MIA flag. Chief Master Sgt. Eric Fiero was present to see them off, remarking that he felt “a little somber” about the event. “But I’ll tell you something,” he said, “seeing the folks here honoring these individuals, it makes me a little emotional.”

The event takes place over 24 hours, with different groups of volunteer servicemen and women trading off relay-style, always making sure that the flags remain flying, much like the Olympics’ “eternal flame.” “Our goal is to keep the flags running constantly,” said Master Sgt. Jacqueline Marie Salmon. The same event was taking place on bases across the country, where service members wanted to honor Americans who were prisoners of war or never returned from duty. A recording plays constantly, reciting the names of each American POW or MIA soldier. “Earl Roger Biggs,” the voice intoned. “Frederick A. Billingham, Jr. George Allison Berg. Terry Lee

Blackburn, Jr. . . .” Jeffrey Jewell is a veteran who showed up to pay his respects by circling the track a few times. He said he always encourages veterans to participate. “I’m here because we support this,” he said, adding that he had been to a few of the weeklong events such as a breakfast and a movie night. In addition to moral support Thursday, Jewell said he has worked professionally for veterans organizations for many years. The remembrance event will come to a close late Friday morning, at which time the base will host a closing ceremony and event.

US holds thousands of Haitian migrants in South Texas after mass border crossing Arelis Hernández, Nick Miroff The Washington Post

DEL RIO, Texas — Thousands of Haitian migrants who have crossed the Rio Grande since Tuesday are sleeping outdoors under a border bridge in South Texas, creating a humanitarian emergency and a logistical challenge U.S. agents describe as unprecedented. Authorities in Del Rio say more than 8,000 migrants have

arrived at the impromptu camp, and they are expecting more in the coming days. The sudden influx has presented the Biden administration with a new border emergency at a time when illegal crossings have reached a 20-year high and Department of Homeland Security officials are straining to accommodate and resettle more than 60,000 Afghan evacuees. The migrants arriving to Del Rio appear to be part of a larger

A February 2019 Google Earth screenshot of Davis Drive where Tony Wade and the Davis Drive Gang played street football in the 1970s. I should mention that I had been bullied in Virginia before we moved to California and the Tolenas punks were annoying, but rank amateurs compared to other suffering I’d endured. Still, I hated them. Now, I remember their actual names, but I’m not petty enough to print them here. However, I am petty enough to dub them Beavis and Butt-Head for the purpose of telling this tale. In addition to laughing when someone dropped a pass or fell, they were super loud because they were shouting over Butt-Head’s early iteration of a boom box that was playing a cassette tape of “Frampton Comes Alive.” We tried to just ignore their taunts and jeers, but it was grating on the nerves. What happened next was like a dream. My older brother Ken, who had walked up to E Z Mart for some Now & Laters (which we called Now or Laters) came home and saw what was going on. He motioned for Bobby to throw him the football, which he immediately did because Ken was three years older. Ken told Fish Eyes to go long and Fish Eyes started sprinting. Now, Ken would later go on to city and countywide fame for his prowess on Armijo’s football team as a nose tackle/center, but he could throw a football like nobody’s business, too. He fired a tight spiral directly at Butt-Head’s proto-boom box and scored a direct hit that knocked it out of his hand. It hit the Davis Drive pavement and the cassette door broke off and the tape bounced out. Seconds before Ken had thrown the pass, James Darden had yelled “CAR!” so Fish Eyes cleared for the safety of the sidewalk. ButtHead’s box, however, got crunched by the pickup truck of a guy who lived

down the street who was unable to stop in time. It was magical to behold. The driver got out, made sure everyone was OK and then berated Butt-Head for being so careless. Butt-Head knew better than to tell on Ken and so he gathered his mangled music maker and he and Beavis skulked away home like wounded rodents. Can I come clean? While we did play street football on Davis Drive in the ’70s, the busting-theboom-box-of-the-boneheaded-bullies part never actually happened. But eviscerating them in fiction here is therapeutic for me and a whole lot cheaper than actual therapy.

Leaven youth hear encouraging words Amy Maginnis-Honey

amaginnis@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Participants at The Leaven got some sweet talk Wednesday afternoon in a Zoom session at Jelly Belly and other locales. Heather Wilson, speaking from the University of Texas at El Paso, shared that her grandfather was a pilot. Her father, too. He died in a car crash when she was 2. Prior to high school, Wilson, who is president of the university, shared how she discovered her love of school, saying she liked it better than being at home. When the Air Force Academy began admitting women, her life was changed. “I knew it was a ticket to my dream,” she said. Wilson encouraged the youth to make wise choices and live for the day. “No matter the circumstances, you have choices,” she said. “In high school, I didn’t drink or do drugs. I tried to hang out with people who lifted me up.” Going to college is more important than ever, Wilson said. “Jobs in the 21st century take a lot more education than my father, grandfather, and me had,” she said. One of the students wanted to know what she enjoyed most at the Air Force Academy. The scenery was a bonus, as well as the fact there were several different things she could

study there. Friends also played a key role. Wilson served as Secretary of the U.S. Air Force. She represented New Mexico in the Congress for 10 years. The event is part of an ongoing Gen. Maryanne Miller Speaker Series for The Leaven students to encourage them to achieve through commitment and values. Gen. David Goldfein shared his story of being accepted into the Air Force Academy but chose to ride his 10-speed bike from San Antonio in search of musician Harry Chapin and the hope of being a roadie for Chapin. Before they could meet, Chapin died in a car crash in New York. “I found myself in the middle of the country living on $3 a day,” Goldfein said. Along the way, Goldfein picked up a puppy, who traveled with him for six months. During that time, Goldfein said he decided America was worth defending and asked for his spot in Air Force Academy. Goldfein was the 21st chief of staff of the U.S. Air Force. As chief, of staff he served as the senior uniformed Air Force officer responsible for the organization, training and equipping of 685,000 active-duty, Guard, reserve and civilian forces serving in the United States and overseas.

FAIRFIELD — The number of active Covid-19 cases jumped from Monday to Wednesday while the number of people hospitalized with the disease remained relatively steady. A total of 380 new cases were reported since Monday, taking the county’s pandemic total to 43,194. There were 773 active cases Wednesday and 92 people hospitalized with the disease.

The countywide vaccination rate held steady at 64% among residents 12 and older, with another 12% partially vaccinated, the county reports. Solano Public Health does not post updates on Thursdays. The next update is scheduled late Friday afternoon. Most people who have Covid-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, experience only mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. Some people, especially older adults and those with underlying health prob-

The delta variant of the virus, which is currently dominant in the U.S., is highly transmissible with indications that asymptomatic individuals can spread the virus to others. The CDC has reported that unvaccinated people who contract the delta variant of the virus are 11 times more likely to die from the disease as those who are vaccinated. The vast majority of people who contract the disease, however, do recover.

Council requires masks for city buildings, events Susan Hiland

VACAVILLE — City Council members voted Tuesday to require face masks indoors at city buildings and during certain activities as the delta variant continues its surge. Council members debated the proposed directive of the use of face coverings inside all city facilities and while participating in outdoor programs and events conducted by the city when social distancing is not possible. “I think people have the right to make the decision that is best for their family, whether to put something in your body or wear masks,” Councilman Roy Stockton said. “This to me feels like tyranny.” “This is not about tyranny,” Councilman Michael Silva said. “This is about how to keep staff safe and showing that we genuinely are concerned for keeping staff safe.” The city government has experienced firsthand the spread of the Covid-19 virus. A total of 29 city employees tested positive for Covid-19 in August and numerous others were forced to miss work for testing and quarantine due to workplace expo-

Solano County Public Health reported 773 active Covid-19 cases in the county as of Stockton Wednesday with 92 people hospitalized and the availability of staffed ICU beds at 23%. “Part of this is looking at this as a business,” Vice Mayor Nolan Sullivan said. “We have Silva an outbreak in the city and it is affecting how business is working. I am for anything that helps keep things moving.” The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended July 27 that face coverings be worn in public indoor settings, regardless of vaccination status, in areas of substantial or high Covid-19 transmission. The California Department of Public Health has recommended that fully vaccinated people wear face coverings in indoor public settings statewide.

The number of deaths is 280 with 16 recently added during the current surge. The CDC has released data that indicates people who are unvaccinated who contract Covid-19are11times more likely to die than are those who are vaccinated. The face-covering mandate will be effective until repealed by either the city manager or the City Council.

George E. Congdon

March 26, 1924 - Sept. 10, 2021

George Congdon passed away peacefully at Paradise Valley Estates at the age of 97 years old. George was born in Peoria, Illinois in 1924 to George E. Congdon Jr. and Thelma Clark Congdon. At age 21 years old George moved to Santa Barbara, California where his father held the position of Chief Executive Officer for the Marine Air Station in Goleta, currently the location of the University of California. This is where George met the love of his life, Carolyn. They were married in Santa Barbara in 1949. If you had to describe George in one word it would be productive. He began working at the age of 14 as a water boy, carrying drinking water to workers building barracks for servicemen. He later had various jobs in Santa Barbara, all of which were heavy labor. He worked as a cement finisher, a brick layer and a carpenter early on. He single handedly built his first house in 1951 on the Mesa (Santa Barbara) with the exception of requiring his now pregnant wife to help raise the last wall. The two of them accomplished this only minutes before having to rush her to the hospital to deliver their first baby boy. In 1952 they moved to the San Francisco Bay Area. He built a house for his father while working full time for a local contractor. He said contacting was his future so he obtained his contractors license and never looked back. He was a fearless builder. He would take on any project. He built residential housing, multi-family housing, commercial warehouses, buildings, even highway overpasses. By 1970 he was the largest payor of Carpenter Union Employee benefits in the 45 Bay Area Counties. By the end of his career he had built over 7000 residential dwellings, office buildings, industrial warehouses and firehouses.

He held a tenure as the President of the Peninsula Builders Association. George semi retired in 1974. He began the shut down of Congdon Construction Company, which took two years. He then put on his nail bags again and began building custom homes with his two boys. In 1980 he and Carolyn purchased Okell Hill Ranch in Napa, County. This 1200 acre ranch had not changed hands in 135 years. They said it was the biggest ‘lot’ they ever owned. George confessed these were some of the best years of his life. He was able to spend time with his sons, build and develop without the pressure of running a big company. George’s interests included hunting, fishing and especially golf. When it came to golf George had the knack. He took up golf at the age of 35 joining Green Hills Country Club in Millbrae, California. In just three years he won the club championship! Golf truly became he and Carolyn’s life. They loved the game and the social aspects of the country club life. They later joined Los Altos Country Club where he also won a Club Championship! In 1980 they joined Green Valley Country Club where they were members for 40 years. George really found a home at GVCC. He loved the course and found many lifelong friendships. Most of ‘the guys’ loved to tease him for being ‘thrifty’ which he enjoyed. If one were to examine a model of a successful life George Congdon would be the poster child. He was a good husband, a great father, a successful businessman and was well liked by most people. He is survived by his wife of 72 years, Carolyn; two sons, David and Jim; granddaughter, Julie; grandson Cory; and his great-grandson, Davin. Rest in Peace George.

Police: Man threatens officers with knives Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

SUISUN CITY — A man suspected in a theft case held police at bay midday Wednesday after arming himself with one – and then two – knives. Police dispatchers received a call just before 11 a.m. of a theft that occurred on the 200 Block of Marina Boulevard. Officers responded and encountered Xavier Williams, 31, Fairfield, who matched the description given by the victim. Police report that when the officer approached Williams, the Fairfield man reached into his backpack and armed himself with a large knife. Police say Williams refused to comply with officers’ commands and walked into the field near the sub-100 block of Railroad Avenue. Officers created a perimeter in the area and attempted to deescalate the situation,

police report. Williams reached into his backpack and armed himself with a second large knife, police report, waived the knives around and threatened officers if they approached. Williams walked toward the Denverton bridge after about 10 minutes and threw the knives into the water. He then walked up onto the Denverton bridge, where he ultimately complied with officers’ commands and was taken into custody without incident.

Council OKs funding plan for 10 new City Coach vans Susan Hiland

shiland@dailyrepublic.net

VACAVILLE — The City Council voted Tuesday to adopt the City Coach’s annual Transportation Development Act application for funding the public transit system for the coming year. One change to the proposal was to include expedited plans for an electrical system to be created for vans that would be bought in the future with an eye being toward electric vehicles. Current plans include putting a charging station in the bus lot by 2024. City Council members said they would like to see that timeline shortened. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission estimates that Vacaville is eligible for approximately $4.7 million of Transportation Development Act dollars during the fiscal year. The city has chosen 10 vehicles to replace the aging vans for the

The total TDA operating funds request for the 2021-2022 fiscal year is a bit more than $1.46 million. The transit staff has selected six projects totaling $2.4 million in requested TDA funds that they have identified as priorities. They include an elec-

trification charging system infrastructure, paratransit bus replacement and City Coach Direct van procurement, expansion of the transit building, upgrades to transit compressed natural gas station, fixedroute bus fleet upgrades, and procurement of transit amenities and related Covid-19 sanitation services. City Coach is not charging fares for some services but officials are looking to change that in the next couple of months.

Supervisors set meeting dates to discuss pandemic Rescue Plan Todd R. Hansen

FAIRFIELD — Solano County supervisors have nearly $87 million in one-time federal dollars and are not quite sure, yet, how the money should be used. So the board set up meetings Tuesday for Oct. 12 and Oct. 19 to discuss the possible uses for the American Rescue Plan Act funding, “On March 11, 2021, the president signed the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 into law. The $1.9 trillion package is intended to combat the Covid-19 pandemic, and assist in the recovery efforts, including the public health and economic impacts, and ensure the country thrives in the coming years. As part of the ARPA, Solano County has been directly allocated funding of ($86.95 million),” a staff report to the board states, The county, which has received roughly half of its allocation and will likely get the other half in May, has not committed where any of those funds will go. The Oct. 12 meeting will begin at 6 p.m. The Oct. 19 meeting will

begin at 9 a.m. Cities also share in the funding, with $25.73 million to Vallejo; $19.81 million to Fairfield; and 12.67 million to Vacaville in direct allocations. There were also funds to be funneled through the state to other jurisdictions, including an estimated $5.58 million to Suisun City; $5.23 million to Benicia; $3.9 million to Dixon; and Rio Vista would receive $1.83 million, the county reported. School districts, transit agencies and other organizations also share in the funding. In other action, the board: n Recognized Richard Díaz, Social Services supervisor in the Older & Disabled Adult Services Bureau of the Department of Health and Social Services, upon his retirement after 22 years with the county. n Reappointed Bruce DuClair to the Airport Land Use Commission, representing the 4th District, for a term to end May 5, 2025. n Reappointed Albert B.

Leaven From Page Two Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Air Force chief of staff and other service chiefs function as military advisers to the Secretary of Defense, National Security Council and the president. One young participant at The Leaven asked the panelists, including Miller, why he should have a job like theirs. “Being a college president is the best,” Wilson said. She does miss the Air Force people and planes, she said. In the military, one can be part of something bigger than one’s self, Goldfein said. “You have the opportunity to make a difference in many lives,” he said. Prior to attending the

Air Force Academy, Goldfein was in a prep school, debating his future. One of the directors pulled him aside and told him his scores were not looking competitive. With it came the advice: “Keep doing what you are doing and the decision will be made for you. You are not going to get in. Fight every day to get in, like your life depends on it.” Miller is the featured speaker Oct. 3 at The Leaven’s Gala. She shared a Mother Teresa quote to end Wednesday’s session: “Yesterday is gone, tomorrow is not here. We have only today. Let’s begin.” Miller served as commander of Air Mobility Command at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, prior to her retirement. Travis Air Force Base falls under Air Mobility Command.

to the news she termed “wonderful.” “I really enjoyed hearing that $13.96 million of savings to our electorate, to the residents of Solano County; I’m sure they’ll love hearing that,” she said, adding wryly, “Newspaper, are you listening tonight?” Most people who have Covid-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, experience only mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. Some people, especially older adults and those with underlying health problems,

experience more severe illness such as pneumonia and at times, death. The delta variant of the virus, which is currently dominant in the U.S., is highly transmissible with indications that asymptomatic individuals can spread the virus to others. The CDC has reported that unvaccinated people who contract the delta variant of the virus are 11 times more likely to die from the disease as those who are vaccinated. The vast majority of people who contract the disease, however, do recover.

Border From Page One economic toll of the pandemic pushed them to leave, while others say a more welcoming U.S. administration has offered them a fleeting opportunity to reach the United States. “I see brave people who instead of being trapped by conformity chose to find a better life,” said Wendy Guillaumetre, 31, who spent four years in Chile before setting out with his wife and 3-year-old daughter for the United States. “They are courageous,” he said. “Conditions are too hard in Haiti.” The Biden administration has curtailed deportation flights to Haiti after the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse in July and a 7.2-magnitude earthquake Aug. 14 that killed more than 2,000. And DHS has extended temporary protected status, or TPS, eligibility for Haitians, a measure that allows Haitians living in the United States without legal status to qualify for provisional residency and avoid deportation. How many more may arrive in the next few days is unclear. CBP is scrambling to send additional agents to Del Rio to help process the migrants, issuing them numbers as they queue up to be formally apprehended, the first step in applying for asylum or another form of U.S. protection. Most of the migrants are likely to be released into the United States with a notice to appear in court at a future date. “The Border Patrol is increasing its manpower in the Del Rio Sector and coordinating efforts within DHS and other relevant federal, state and local partners to immediately address the current level of migrant encounters and to facilitate a safe, humane and orderly process,” CBP said in a statement. “To prevent injuries from heat-related illness, the shaded area underneath Del Rio International Bridge is serving as a temporary staging site while migrants wait to be taken into USBP custody.” Along the banks of the Rio Grande on Thursday, hundreds of migrants waded through knee-high water along a concrete spillway, moving back and forth between the camp and shops on the Mexican side. They carried ice, plates of food and other supplies; one man forded the river with a rolled-up mattress on his shoulders. Others bathed in the river, cleaned clothes and cooled off from the muggy heat. Mexican vendors wandered

Texas. through the crowd selling snacks, water and ice cream. Several migrants said there was nothing to eat on the U.S. side. A few in the camp had strung up clotheslines and fashioned shelters out of sticks and carrizo cane. Ramses Colon, a 41-year-old Afro-Cuban asylum seeker among the mostly Haitian crowd who worked in Peru to save money for the trip, said the Del Rio camp was “chaos.” “You stand there among thousands with your little ticket waiting for your turn,” he said. Colon and his partner, Estephany Cabrera, 30, joined the crowds of Haitians in Colombia, crossing the Darien jungle and using the group’s numbers to protect themselves. “I joined them because I look like them,” Colon said. He was walking back into Mexico to pick up cash wired by his family in the United States. “Without money, you are nothing here,” he said. CBP said it is providing drinking water, towels and other provisions to the site, but one agent in the Del Rio Sector said sanitary conditions are poor. There are 20 portable toilets at the site, according to Jon Anfinsen, the top Border Patrol union official in the Del Rio Sector. “We’re scrambling to bring every resource we can, but it’s a logistical nightmare,” he said. “We’re pulling agents from across the country to help, but they’re not going to be there today, and we’re just trying to keep heads above water.” Families with small children are given priority, Anfinsen said, in order to move them out of the bridge area as soon as possible. “Many agents are mothers and fathers, and seeing kids in this situation is sad for everyone,” he said. “Morale is terrible.” Biden administration officials say they will continue to use emer-

gency authorities under Title 42 of the U.S. public health code to rapidly return or “expel” migrants. But Mexican authorities have declined to take back Haitians in recent months. The administration is also contending with new court orders related to its border policies. On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan in the District of Columbia blocked the Biden administration from using Title 42 to expel migrant families, though he stayed the order for 14 days. The percentage of families returned under Title 42 has been declining in recent months; in August authorities used it on just 19% of the more than 86,000 family members taken into custody. The Supreme Court also said last month that the Biden administration must restart a Trump administration program that requires asylum seekers to wait in Mexico while their claims are adjudicated in U.S. courts. The Del Rio border sector has been among the busiest for illegal crossings in recent months as thousands of Haitians, Cubans, Venezuelans and Hondurans climb down from the limestone bluffs on the Mexican side to wade across the Rio Grande. Del Rio Mayor Bruno “Ralphy” Lozano, D, said the size of the group has increased steadily to more 8,200 people. “I thought the worst-case scenario was having a couple people, maybe 150 people roaming the streets,” said Lozano, who warned the Biden administration in a February video that his community needed more federal support to cope with a surge in crossings. “Although I foreshadowed a worst-case scenario, this is probably a worse case of worstcase scenarios,” he said. “I need the administration to recognize that there is a border crisis happening in real time right now and it has dire

consequences on security, health and safety.” In recent months, the city has been a testing ground for Gov. Greg Abbott’s most aggressive border security plans, including charging migrants with state crimes such as trespassing. Val Verde County, which includes Del Rio, went for President Donald Trump in 2020, voting for a Republican at the top of the ticket for the first time in decades. Lozano said while he initially welcomed the Republican governor’s effort, the local judicial system is now overwhelmed. Haitian, Venezuelan and Cuban migrants often say they prefer to cross in the Del Rio area because of its reputation as comparatively safer than the Rio Grande Valley downriver. Many of the migrants arrived to the border on buses that appear to be part of a large smuggling operation, Lozano said. “It just sounds like there’s an off-grid bus system that’s not registered with the Mexican government that are driving these individuals north,” he said. Some Del Rio residents, particularly those living along the river and on ranches, have raised alarms in recent months about the large groups of migrants appearing on their properties. The mayor said his city and the migrants are both victims, suffering the consequences of federal policy decisions that fail to address the realities on the ground in border communities. “You have a favela that has been established overnight with individuals who are destitute,” Lozano said. “Border Patrol is doing their best to process these people, but the Del Rio Sector is 240 miles wide. If the attention is given here to these 8,000 people, that opens up a big question: Who’s watching the rest of the sector?”

Biden’s economic plan at risk of delays as Dems squabble Tribune Content Agency President Joe Biden’s economic agenda risks getting delayed by weeks or months in Congress with tax, health care and other issues still unresolved and continued squabbling between the Democratic Party’s progressive and moderate wings. House committees on Wednesday wrapped up work on significant portions of the package, including $2.1 trillion in tax increases to help pay for the biggest expansion of social welfare programs in decades. That technically meets the Democrats’ self-imposed deadline, but the action belies the obstacles still ahead that threaten to diminish Biden’s ambitious proposals and put off votes on them in the House and Senate. “Some folks have issues on climate change, some people have issues on tax and some people have issues on health care,” said Senator Chris Murphy, a Connecticut Democrat, adding that he thinks Democrats ultimately will agree on a package. Democratic Senator Ben Cardin of Maryland said that the Senate would likely take whatever passes the House, change it and send it back to the House. He said he doesn’t see that happening this month. “It’s going to take some time,” Cardin said, adding that “as you put out one area, another one crops up.” The expansive $3.5 trillion package entails much of Biden’s first-year agenda and includes a mix of tax increases on the wealthy and corporations, as well as greater spending in

measure could still come together quickly. Senate Budget Chair Bernie Sanders said a reconciliation package still could be ready to move by the end of the month, a goal set by Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. “It’s hard to operate unless you have a time frame,” Sanders said. “Schumer has laid out a time frame and people are really working quite hard to make sure we Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images/TNS meet that goal.” Sen.

China, France attack deal on nuclear-powered submarines Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — The Biden administration Thursday was fielding acute anger from a rival, China, and one of its closest allies, France, over a pact that will help Australia develop nuclearpowered submarines. The nuclear deal, which also includes the United Kingdom, was announced by President Joe Biden on Wednesday and immediately threatened to aggravate tensions with Beijing and potentially damage an improving relationship with Paris. It gives Australia U.S. technology to build a fleet of nuclear-powered submarines, which are stealthier, have longer and deeper range and are more sophisticated than conventional subs. The agreement was seen as a major step in Biden’s vow to form a grand alliance to curb China’s economic and military influence in the Indo-Pacific region. U.S. tensions with China are on the rise, and containing Beijing is a top Biden administration foreign policy priority. Beijing on Thursday expressed predictable outrage at the deal, criticizing it for embracing a cold war mentality that will stoke an arms race, damage international nonproliferation efforts and threaten regional peace and stability. The United States and Britain “are using nuclear exports for geopolitical gaming tools and applying double standards which is extremely irresponsible,” Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said. He called on the pair, with Australia, to “shake off their cold war mentality and do more to contribute to peace and stability.” Administration officials countered Thursday afternoon that the defense deal was not targeting Beijing, even though most experts saw China very much in the backdrop of

the decision. “It is not aimed at any countries,” Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken said during a news conference at which he was joined by Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III and their Australian counterparts. “It’s certainly not aimed at holding anyone back. It is (about) ... upholding the rulesbased international order that both Australia and the United States deeply believe in.” Australian Foreign Minister Marise Payne added, “We’ve been very consistent in our desire to have constructive engagement with China . . . (and) we place great importance on the relationship.” French leaders, meanwhile, on Thursday expressed indignation, saying they were completely blindsided by the submarine deal – criticism that would seem to undercut the Biden administration’s efforts to repair relationships with allies that it asserts were neglected under President Donald Trump. The pact leaves France in the lurch by scuttling a $66 billion deal that Paris won five years ago to supply Australia with less powerful conventional submarines. French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, in an interview with a French radio station Thursday, complained bitterly about the “brutal decision,” which he suggested was more typical of actions that took place under the Trump administration. “This is not done between allies,” Le Drian said. The new defense arrangement, known as AUKUS, an acronym of the three countries’ names, comes as Europe is attempting to assert influence and as Britain breaks away from the continent. In that vein, Britain joining forces with the U.S. and Australia seems, as Le Drian put it, “a knife in the back.”

Elton John says hip injury reason for postponed tour Tribune Content Agency Elton John is hitting the brakes on his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour. The 74-year-old singer has postponed the European leg of the tour after hurting his hip this summer during a fall, he announced Thursday. “Despite intensive physio and specialist treatment, the pain has continued to get worse and is leading to increasing difficulties moving. I have been advised to have an operation as soon as possible to get me back to full fitness and make sure there are no longterm complications,” John said in a statement. “I will be undertaking a program of intensive physiotherapy that will ensure a full recov-

ery and a return to full mobility without pain.” The “Candle in the Wind” singer was set to play 22 shows in Europe, beginning with a ninenight stay at London’s O2 Arena on Nov. 14. That trip has now been pushed to 2023, after his tour around the U.S., which will begin in New Orleans. John said he will still play the Global Citizen Live charity event on Sept. 25, a five-song set, “as I don’t want to let a charity down.” “I know how patient my incredible fans have been since COVID halted touring last year, and it breaks my heart to keep you waiting any longer,” he said. “I completely feel your frustrations after the year we’ve had.”

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll be given plenty of leeway to do what you want with a project. However, it will benefit you to ask for input from many and work in conjunction with a team, getting overall approval before you begin the work. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You will be as lucky as you are daring. Find out what happens when you take an uninteresting aspect of your day and push it a little further, and a little further, until the action moves into a territory of absurdity. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s good that this fond wish of yours doesn’t come true right away. The anticipation is part of what makes an outcome wonderful. And besides, the journey is where all the learning happens. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Sometimes, your nurturing ways allow others to relax enough to grow into the next move. But nurturing isn’t always warm and soft. Today, your care may have a tougher side before you know it. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). First comes a realization; then comes your plan. To make a plan before you recognize the true nature of things would be to plan in vain. You cannot force your knowledge, but you can observe well, holding a space

Daily Cryptoquotes

yoke around my neck, and I don’t see any way out. -- Dad on the Edge Dear Dad: To start, take a few long, deep breaths. It’s essential that you stop overworking yourself. Set realistic expectations for clients in terms of project timelines, and turn jobs down if need be. Yes, this might lead to reduced cash flow in the short term. But it’s the best way to ensure that, in the long term, you’re able to keep working, without getting sick, burning out or worse. You need to be here to watch your three new baby girls grow up, after all. A worry shared is a worry halved. Let friends and family members in on what you’re going through. They’ll want to help, and there will be many ways for them to do so – like running errands so your wife doesn’t have to, assisting with appointments and helping care for those three incoming bundles of joy once they arrive. Lastly, it’s admirable that you’re trying to avoid stressing out your wife. But bottling everything up inside will only cause her to worry more. Open up to her, and share what’s on your heart and mind. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@ creators.com.

Today’s birthday You’ll make this new era beautiful. Once you start the work, you’ll get plenty of help, so take initiative, and execute your impulses with gusto. Assemble a posse; make good on the strength in numbers. By losing some individualism, you gain access to more than you thought possible. Lessons will be worth the price. Scorpio and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 22,10, 3 and 29.

for all to come together. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The cosmic gift of the day will come wrapped in humor. Whether you laugh silently to yourself or raucously with friends, you’ll be healed by the body shake a joke can make. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Oddly enough, knowing too much about a problem could inhibit you from seeing the solution. Children and newbies may have a more helpful take on it than those mired in the issues. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You can’t change the past, but you can change the backstory. Challenge yourself to see things

a little differently than you did yesterday. Find the spin that makes you more excited about who you are right now. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). Although there may be no tangible prize for the endeavor you now spend so much of your life on, there are rewards to be had here, tangible or abstract, overt or implied. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You’re adaptable, with a wide social vocabulary to draw from. If you have to change your communication style to get the message across, you will. Understanding your listener is key to having any success. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). In certain tribes where bravery is more prestigious than anything that can be bought, scars are status symbols. You have emotional scars no one knows about. Would you consider wearing one with pride? PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If there is pressure to do things right, either get the most qualified person for the job or find a way to eliminate that pressure. The spirit of innovation cannot thrive where people are afraid to fail.

Before it was played, Israel led the Netherlands by 1.33 international match points. As we saw yesterday, the Dutch North-South pair played in two no-trump and made 10 tricks for plus 180 after an Israeli misdefense and excellent card reading by declarer Gerbrand Hop. East-West were left to rue that East did not have a spade entry for a heart lead through declarer’s king. Though they did not know it, the Israeli North-South pair had to score at least 140 for victory. After North’s redouble, the jump to three clubs ought to have been game-forcing; with only invitational values, North would have rebid two clubs. But South passed. However, if South had known the position, he would not have passed. He had to take 11 tricks in clubs to win the match, which was impossible. West led the spade ace and shifted to a club. Declarer drew trumps, knocked out the spade king, won the spade return, discarded a heart on his last spade, played his three top diamonds and claimed his contract exactly.

Vanden moves into 1st in MEL girls tennis Daily Republic staff

LOCAL REPORT

SPORTS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

VACAVILLE — Camille Arca hung on for a three-set victory at No. 4 singles to help the Vanden High girls tennis team move into sole possession of first place in the Monticello Empire League with a 6-3 victory over Vacaville, Thursday. Arca won the first set 7-5, only to have the Bulldogs’ Victoria Silva bounce back with a 6-2 win in the second. Arca then outlasted Silva 6-4 in the third set. The Vikings (7-1 MEL) took

an early 4-0 lead with victories by Sasha Smith at No. 2 (6-1, 6-0), Delaney Ramsell at No. 3 (6-1, 6-1), Jasmine Yabut at No. 5 (6-3, 6-2) and Hailey Lam at No. 6 (6-2, 6-2). The Bulldogs (6-2) made things interesting with victories from Nia Macay at No. 1 singles (7-5, 6-2) and the doubles teams of Sophie Foderaro and Jordan Salyer-Gummoe at No. 1 (6-1, 6-3) and Hadel Marini and Cameron Gonzalez at No. 2 (6-4, 6-4). Arca then earned her key

victory and Vanden got another win at No. 6 doubles by Kamsie Onwuazombe and Kalyse Payne (6-1, 7-5). “Another really close match with Vacaville,” Vikings coach Stan Lewis said. “We were able to go up 4-0 with wins at No. 2, No. 3, No. 5 and No. 6 singles, but then Vaca stormed back with wins at No. 1 singles and No. 1 and No. 2 doubles to make it 4-3. Camille Arca pulled out a long three-set match at No. 4 singles to clinch us the win. Proud of how hard all my athletes fought today for every point in every match.”

Giants fall to Padres, see NL West lead drop to 1 game Tribune Content Agency

Mike Mulholland/MLive.com

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Jason Verrett gets emotional as he walks off the field after injuring his

knee in the fourth quarter of their NFL game against the Detroit Lions at Ford Field in Detroit, Sunday.

Without Jason Verrett

49ers have to contend with NFC West’s potent passing attacks Tribune Content Agency WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.V. — Bad news for the 49ers, who are dealing with the loss of their best cornerback: The NFC West’s quarterbacks are dealing. On Sunday, when the 49ers lost Jason Verrett for the season with a torn ACL, Seattle’s Russell Wilson, Arizona’s Kyler Murray and Los Angeles’ Matthew Stafford had performances that underscored just how significant Verrett’s absence will be: That

threesome combined to throw 11 touchdowns and one interception while completing 73% of their passes and posting a 141.5 passer rating en route to seasonopening wins. The 49ers are scheduled to have six games against those QBs, who are each assisted by accomplished wide receivers: the Seahawks’ D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, the Rams’ Robert Woods and Cooper Kupp and the Cardinals’ DeAndre Hopkins all ranked

among the NFL’s top 20 in receptions in 2020. “We don’t worry about who we’re going against,” 49ers’ defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans said. “And what challenges (there are). It’s all about us. And how we are working throughout the week and how we go out and play on Sunday. I tell my guys: Don’t panic, just work.” The 49ers have their work out cut out for them without Verrett, a 2014 first-round pick and Rodriguez High graduate who was Pro Bowl caliber in the only two

seasons (2015, 2020) in which he played more than six games. They don’t appear to have another top-end corner on the roster. But they do have a solid starter in Emmanuel Moseley, who missed the season opener and didn’t practice Thursday with what head coach Kyle Shanahan has suggested is a minor knee injury. And they have a promising rookie fifth-round pick in Deommodore Lenoir. And they have two recently signed nine-year See 49ers, Page B9

Less than 72 hours after they exuberantly celebrated clinching a playoff berth, the Giants trudged off the field with decidedly less enthusiasm Thursday. They remain in first place in the National League West, but their lead dropped to one game after a 7-4 loss to San Diego. The Giants and Dodgers each have 15 games left, a furious sprint to avoid the hazards of wildcard status. Giants manager Gabe Kapler acknowledged the season is starting to feel compressed as the calendar creeps toward Game No. 162 on Oct. 3. Kapler keeps a pitching schedule on his office wall, offering a constant reminder of how many games remain. “I sort of like erasing the top line and seeing that number get smaller and smaller,” he said. “I don’t think that’s specific to any other team, it’s more a function of the calendar than anything else. But

Tribune Content Agency Shohei Ohtani will not pitch on Friday as originally expected after he experienced arm soreness this week, Angels manager Joe Maddon said, and there’s no guarantee he will start on the mound again before the season ends. Ohtani had been “penciled” in to start Friday’s series-opener against the Oakland A’s, but then felt soreness after playing catch on Wednesday, according to Maddon. It’s unclear what will come next for Ohtani. Maddon said the team isn’t shutting him down yet, and that they’re hopeful he could just be battling normal late-season fatigue. They’re planning to have him play catch again in the next few days and see how he feels. As of Thursday morning, there

‘If he feels great, adamantly, I see nothing wrong with (him pitching again). But if there’s any kind of lingering soreness, you may not see him pitch.’ — Joe Maddon

was no plan to have him see a doctor. “If he feels great, adamantly, I see nothing wrong with (him pitching again),” Maddon said. “But if there’s any kind of lingering soreness, you may not see him pitch. I just don’t know that answer yet.”

Maddon said he did ask Ohtani about potentially shutting down for the rest of the season, either as a pitcher or a hitter, where he has slumped with a .147 batting average over the last 20 games. However, “he felt he’s still good and he still wants to get after it,” Maddon said. “But I did broach the subject with him.” While Ohtani has previously missed pitching starts this year because blisters on his fingers and soreness around his hand and wrist area after being struck by balls, this is the first case of the team saying he has any sort of arm issue. In 2018, Ohtani underwent Tommy John surgery after making 10 pitching starts in his first MLB season. He didn’t pitch at all in See Ohtani, Page B10

it’s exciting.” Or, as Kris Bryant said, “It’s crazy how you play so many games throughout the year, and it always seems to come down to the last couple of weeks when you’re fatigued as a team and you have to be at your best. We have to come out here ready to go.” The Giants, after scoring at least six runs in each of their previous 10 games, made little noise against a parade of Padres pitchers – at least until the late innings. San Diego hitters, meantime, made Kevin Gausman (14-6) look uncommonly ordinary. Gausman, seeking to become the Giants’ first 15-game winner since Johnny Cueto and Madison Bumgarner in 2016, allowed eight hits in five innings. He maneuvered out of trouble a couple of times but handed the bullpen a 4-0 deficit. This was the first time since July 24, and

A’s: KC’s Perez belted 45th homer in 1st From Page B1 in nine pitches, to leave the potential tying run on second. The A’s expanded their lead in the ninth. A 7-2 win gave them a series victory in Kansas City and closer resembled the pitchingheavy formula that has fueled them this season. “Obviously for us to bounce back after such a tough loss in the first game shows a good bit of resiliency and not getting down,” utilityman Chad Pinder said. “You’ve got to like that going forward.” Blackburn’s first inning did not promise a long start. The righthander walked his second batter on four pitches. His next, Perez, crushed a cutter for a two-run homer, his 45th of the season. It tied Perez with Johnny Bench for most in one season by a catcher. Two more hitters struck singles. The A’s bullpen began to stir. Blackburn then settled in. Shortstop Elvis Andrus speared Hunter Dozier’s liner to end the first inning, the first of nine hitters in a row retired by Blackburn. Dozier doubled with two outs in the fourth; Blackburn induced a popout by Kyle Isbel. Sebastian Rivero singled to start the fifth; Blackburn erased him on a doubleplay grounder. “We talked about how they’re going to be aggressive and they came out aggressive,” Blackburn said. Catcher Sean Murphy “and I talked about it throughout the game: If they’re going to be aggressive, then that’s fine, but let’s keep on moving it out, make them swing at our pitches and don’t come in to them.” Blackburn, making his sixth start since being recalled from Triple-A in mid- August, had not finished the fourth in his prior two. He recorded his first major-league win since 2018, ending a stretch of eight starts without one. “I’ve always kind of thought I’d be back here to help these guys, no matter what time (of season) it is,” Blackburn said. “Yeah, it is my first win. But this late in the season, where we are right now, it’s just a huge win for us in general.” Oakland’s offense awoke in an odd third inning. Starter Daniel Lynch walked Andrus and hit Tony Kemp on the right arm. Josh Harrison singled to score Andrus. A misplay on Starling Marte’s grounder loaded the bases for Matt

Olson with no outs. Olson worked a full count. Lynch did not finish it. A trainer emerged to check on him after the fifth pitch, and Lynch departed with what the Royals termed calf tightness. Reliever Joel Payamps replaced him and almost escaped the jam. Olson hit a liner at second baseman Whit Merrifield, who doubled Marte off first base. With a right-hander pitching, Melvin played a bench card. Jed Lowrie,

limited to batting lefthanded because of a wrist issue, replaced designated hitter Khris Davis. Lowrie sent a grounder to the right side that caromed off first baseman Ryan O’Hearn. Merrifield corralled it, with an apparent chance to throw out Lowrie. Merrifield did not take it. Kemp scored and Chad Pinder added a two-run single for a 4-2 lead. The A’s offense went quietly until the ninth. Jake Brentz hit Andrus, the 89th

time an Oakland player was hit by a pitch this season, a team record, and Andrus scored on three wild pitches. Harrison added an RBI double for his fourth hit of the game. Harrison has 10 RBIs in his past six games from the leadoff spot. “As much as we can’t look ahead, we can’t look in the past, either,” Pinder said. “Regardless if it was good, bad, ugly in any facet of the game, we have to focus on what we have in front of us.”

our taxes, the question of long-term feasibility becomes all-important. AB 153 is one part of spending the $89 billion federal handout under the American Rescue Plan. But this is a one-time gift. As with most welfare programs, a constituency builds that is hard to ignore. If they want to continue it, legislators will tax us some more. One of our favorite news agencies reported on comments by Tubbs, now an adviser to Newsom: “There is momentum; things are moving quickly. The next step is the federal government.” That’ll be the next raid on our pocketbooks. Taxing the rich is a progressive rallying call. The problem arises when the wealthy depart the state. Thousands of companies – Toyota and Tesla some of the big ones recently – and billionaires – Elon Musk among them – have already left. Now what? Paraphrasing Margaret Thatcher, “Socialism works . . . until you run out of other people’s money.”

ell, that was one for the history books. In the space of two decades, California voters recalled one Democratic governor and refused to recall another. Voting had scarcely ended at 8 p.m. Tuesday before major news organizations declared that Gov. Gavin Newsom had handily turned back what had once appeared to be a viable drive to oust him from office. “We are enjoying an overwhelming ‘no’ vote tonight here in the state of California,” Newsom told cheering supporters in Sacramento. “But ‘no’ was not the only thing that was expressed tonight. I want to focus on what we said ‘yes’ to as a state. We said ‘yes’ to science, ‘yes’ to vaccines, we said ‘yes’ to ending this pandemic.” “We said yes to diversity, we Dan Walters said yes to inclusion, we said yes to pluralism. We said yes to all those things that we hold dear as Californians, and I would argue, as Americans,” the governor said. By early Wednesday, Newsom had drawn support from nearly 64% of those who voted, a couple of points higher than his landslide 2018 win. Republican talk show host Larry Elder easily bested the field of would-be replacements, which itself was a win of sorts for Newsom. Just weeks earlier, polls had indicated that Newsom was in serious danger of losing due to scant interest among his fellow Democrats. However, Elder’s entry was a godsend, giving Newsom a polarizing rival he could use to boost Democratic Party turnout. Suddenly, media coverage of the recall shifted from Newsom’s managerial headaches and his personal conduct – the infamous unmasked dinner in Napa, especially – to Elder’s unleavened opposition to just about every thing held dear by the state’s dominant Democrats. The strategy, aided by tens of millions of dollars in campaign spending and drop-ins by national party figures, including President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, worked brilliantly. So what now? Democratic legislative leaders immediately declared their “plans to fix a broken recall system,” which would mean making recalls more difficult, or perhaps nearly impossible, and thus protecting officeholders at all levels. Such “reforms” would require a statewide vote to amend the Constitution, either proposed by the Legislature or via initiative petition. Given the Democrats’ huge advantage in voter registration, changing the recall system is a strong possibility, perhaps as soon as next year’s November election. Newsom himself will be up for re-election next year and his landslide win in the recall indicates he will have an easy time of it – unless, of course, he does something to undermine himself. He should keep in mind that his own conduct and demeanor were catalysts for the drive to oust him. To many, he comes across as arrogant – the Napa dinner being a prime, but not isolated, example – and much too insistent on having his way “whether you like it or not.” He uttered those words when, as mayor of San Francisco, he brushed aside California law by issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples, claiming a larger moral imperative. As governor, he continued that attitude by unilaterally suspending executions of murderers despite a clear statewide vote to retain the death penalty. Newsom should remember that millions of Californians, especially those in the state’s outer ring of rural counties, think he’s a bad man who has been a bad governor. He can continue to ignore and alienate those in the outback or he can try to include them as he pursues his selfproclaimed “California for All” governorship. A little genuine humility would serve Newsom – and the state – well.

said that Woodward didn’t have his facts right. The irony here is that, to many on the Democratic left, Bob Woodward is the closest thing to a saint in American journalism. But as some Democrats pointed out, now that Milley has been revealed as wary and suspicious of Donald Trump, he has to be protected at all costs. On the other hand, several Republicans said that what Milley is alleged to have done should result in a violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. After all, isn’t that what we mean by treason? Colluding with an avowed enemy of the United States to remove the leadership of your own country? This is a military town. I wonder how active duty and retired military feel about what Milley did, or tried to do. A president’s politics make him fair game for any member of the other party, or does the Constitution come first?

Maggie Gyllenhaal is a natural-born director. Netflix gives her the spotlight

Crossword

Glenn Whipp

Los Angeles Times

TELLURIDE, Colo. — Maggie Gyllenhaal has devoured movies and books for as long as she can remember, and she always noticed that when it came to stories about women, it’d usually feel like some kind of fantasy or wishfulfillment version of what it’s like to be actually be a woman. More often than not, these films and books were written by men, but sometimes women wrote them too because the tradition of this type of storytelling was so pervasive that it was almost inescapable. Taking all this in, Gyllenhaal began to wonder: Am I OK? Because what I’m feeling is a little stranger, a little darker, a little more joyful than what I’m seeing portrayed. Then at 16, Gyllenhaal saw Jane Campion’s “The Piano,” and she felt something articulated that she’d never seen on screen. A couple of decades later, Gyllenhaal began reading the novels of Elena Ferrante, the anonymous Italian author of the four-book series of “Neapolitan Novels” as well as “The Lost Daughter,” the book Gyllenhaal would end up adapting and directing as her feature debut. Premiering at the Venice Film Festival – where it would go on to win Gyllenhaal the jury prize for best screenplay after this interview was conducted – before screening at the Telluride Film Festival, “The Lost Daughter” follows Leda (Olivia Colman), a divorced professor who becomes emotionally involved and borderline obsessed with a young mother (Dakota Johnson) while vacationing on a Greek island. Flashbacks show why Leda (played as a younger woman by Jessie Buckley) might be zeroing in on a woman struggling with the demands of motherhood. Mixing elements of a psychological thriller with an astute, uncompromising character study, Gyllenhaal’s movie will likely generate plenty of conversation when it lands in theaters on Dec. 17 and two weeks later on Netflix. I chatted with Gyllenhaal, fresh off an evening drinking tequila (just one shot, she says, because of the altitude) and dancing to Greek music at a small dinner held in the film’s honor at Telluride. Whipp: When we last spoke, you told me that when you read Ferrante’s “Days of Abandonment,” it disturbed you so much that you literally dropped it and didn’t pick it back up for two days. What about “The Lost Daughter”? Gyllenhaal: It was the same as all the Ferrante books. I thought, “This woman is so f–ed

Am I f–ed up or is this a common experience that many people have that isn’t being talked about?” Which is a comforting feeling because it means you’re not alone. So I thought, “Let’s take that terror of recognizing yourself in something painful, dark, shameful, confusing, aberrant and not just feel it all alone in your room. Put it on a screen in a big room full of people sitting in the dark together, where you might be sitting next to a woman who you have never met before or your husband or your mom or your daughter. Then there’s a possibility for something radical to happen.” That’s what made me want to adapt it into a movie. Whipp: In what ways did you relate to her as the mother of two daughters? Gyllenhaal: We’re never told the darkest, most painful and shameful feelings that I think everybody feels while parenting. Parenting pushes you to the edge. Parenting stretches you in places you have never been before. So how could it not include – along with the joy, the ecstasy, the massive happiness – all the other colors of the rainbow? The terror, the anxiety. If you don’t talk about those things, you get to feeling suffocated like Leda does. If you talk about them, you might be able to cope. At least you know you’re not alone. Whipp: You told me a story once about your oldest daughter being kind of obsessed with having you read “Murder on the Orient Express.” And you were happy to – just not at the moment when you were working. There’s a scene in the movie that almost mirrors that. Gyllenhaal: Yes. With my daughter, I wondered if she can feel that a piece of my mind is elsewhere and she wants it back with her. She feels that switch where I have something else on my mind – and it’s pretty intense and it’s pretty profound

and she’s trying to get my attention, trying to get my focus, trying to control me a little bit. I’m proud to say that I did read that book after we finished. I didn’t want to. But I did. And it was fun. Whipp: You had six weeks to make this movie, your first time directing. Your husband (actor Peter Sarsgaard) is in the movie. And I understand you brought your daughters to Greece . . . Gyllenhaal: Yes, and Peter did the heavy lifting with them. I would get in bed with them at the end of the day and we would watch “The Great British Baking Show.” I would fall asleep, of course. (Laughs) Whipp: This would be a weird movie to test screen. You’d get cards back – that woman is so unlikable! But what was it like getting feedback on your directorial debut in the middle of the pandemic? Gyllenhaal: People gave me a lot of helpful notes while I was writing it. Peter gave me a good one when I was really jamming. He told me I needed to move a moment earlier in the script. I was like, “No. And f– you.” And for weeks I was like, “No, the script is working,” then, “No, god, f– you’re right.” But I didn’t see the movie with an audience until Venice. I arrived to the city a little early. I thought as long as I’m here, I’m going to go to the opening ceremony. I’m going to see films. I’m going to see Jane Campion’s film (“The Power of the Dog”). I was thrilled to be invited, so I’m going to take it all in. But I realized in retrospect that I was holding my breath the whole time. And then I’m sitting in the theater next to Olivia and Dakota who had never seen it, and I could feel their vulnerability. I know that feeling as an actor. But I got out of that screening and I felt like I was walking on air. And now I just want to create things. I miss acting, but making this movie gave me the best feeling.

Cedric the Entertainer hosts 73rd Emmy Awards, Sunday Chuck Barney East Bay Times

D

on’t Miss: “73rd Emmy Awards” – It’s TV’s big night and we have lots of questions: Can the comical soccer underdogs of “Ted Lasso,” actually experience the thrill of victory? Is “The Crown” poised to pull off a dramatic royal flush? Will Baby Yoda grace the red carpet with his presence? (Yes, please!) At least one thing appears pretty certain: Shows from streaming platforms will dominate. As for our host, let’s just hope Cedric the Entertainer lives up to his name. (5 p.m. PT; 8 p.m. ET, Sunday, CBS). Other bets: Sunday: Prolific filmmaker Ken Burns focuses on another American icon with “Muhammad Ali.” It’s a riveting four-part, eight-hour documentary series that charts Ali’s extraordinary life and examines how it intersected with sports, culture, civil rights and religion. (8 p.m., PBS) Monday: Two reality TV mainstays return as “Dancing With the Stars” waltzes into its 30th season, with Tyra Banks hosting again. Meanwhile, “The Voice” launches its 21st search for a pop star with Ariana Grande debuting as a coach. (8 p.m., ABC and NBC) Monday: It’s a double dose of “NCIS.” First, prime time’s most popular drama opens its 19th season. Then comes the debut of “NCIS: Hawai’i.” Vanessa Lachey stars as Jane Tennant, the big kahuna running things at Pearl Harbor. (9 and 10 p.m., CBS) Monday: James Wolk has his work cut out for him as the star of the high-concept drama “Ordinary Joe.” He plays three versions of the same character and shows us what might happen if he chose different paths forward in life. (10 p.m. NBC) Tuesday: Are there more FBI agents on TV than in real life? We ask because “FBI” and “FBI: Most Wanted” both kick off new seasons, and the spin-off series, “FBI: International,” makes its

debut. (8, 9 and 10 p.m., CBS) Tuesday: “Our Kind of People” is a soapy new saga set in a wealthy Martha’s Vineyard enclave, where the rich and powerful Black elite come to play -- and a lot of drama goes down. Yaya DaCosta leads the cast. (9 p.m., Fox) Wednesday: Two more popular reality competitions return as “The Masked Singer” and “Survivor” get back in the game. The latter is launching its – gulp! – 41st season with a two-hour opener. (8 p.m., Fox and CBS) Wednesday: We tend to greet TV reboots with a scowl. But “The Wonder Years” has us intrigued. This version follows a Black middleclass family in Montgomery, Alabama, circa 1968. The story is told from the point of view of an adorably awkward 12-year-old played by Elisha “EJ” Williams. (8:30 p.m., ABC) Thursday: The “Law & Order” franchise delivers three sizzling hours tonight. First, “Law & Order: SVU,” the longest-running liveaction prime-time series in TV history, begins its 23rd season with a two-hour opener. That’s followed by the Season 2 opener of “Law & Order: Organized Crime.” (8 and 10 p.m., NBC) Friday: Isaac Asimov’s iconic trilogy of sci-fi novels about a dying galactic empire gets an ambitious screen adaptation in “Foundation.” The series stars Jared Harris as a brilliant mathematician who predicts a bleak future for humanity. Enter a band of exiles determined to save it. (Apple TV+) Friday: Halloween’s still a month away, but “Midnight Mass” is set to bring some spooky chills. From horror maestro Mike Flanagan (“The Haunting of Hill House”; “The Haunting of Bly Manor”), the series tells the story of an isolated island community where miraculous and terrifying things begin to happen after the arrival of a mysterious priest.

DAILY REPUBLIC — Friday, September 17, 2021  B9

Week 5 prep football capsules Fairfield (0-2) vs. Alhambra (0-2)

When: Today, 7:30 p.m. Where: Schaefer Stadium, Fairfield High Series: First meeting Last week: Fairfield lost to Center, 56-6; Alhambra had a bye Of note: The Falcons, who are riding a cityrecord 21-game losing streak, look to get their offense going against Alhambra. Both Fairfield touchdowns this year have come off kickoff returns to David “DJ” Johnson, who joined Mark Kreutz (1971), Craig Simpson (1976), Chris Butler (1993), Dwight Bailey (2003) and Delashaun Dean (2004) as the only Falcons to return two kickoffs for touchdowns in the same season. . . . In the Bulldogs’ first two games they lost to Hercules, 31-12, and Livermore, 42-7. They went 1-4 in the spring and 5-6 in 2019. Prediction: Alhambra 47, Fairfield 6

Rodriguez (3-0) vs. West Park (0-3) When: Today, 7:15 p.m. Where: Coach Ed Hopkins Memorial Stadium, Rodriguez High Series: First meeting Last week: Rodriguez defeated Napa, 28-3; West Park lost to El Dorado, 42-13 Of note: The Mustangs are looking to become the first football team in school history to start a season 4-0 – and make Myles King the first first-year coach to start out 4-0 in the process. Rodriguez has won three straight for the first time since 2016 – all of which were later forfeited because of the use of an ineligible player – and is looking for its first four-game winning streak since taking the final six games of the 2010 regular season in John Bent’s lone season as coach. After a 31-10 playoff loss to Enochs, it was decided not to bring Bent back and the Mustangs have had no winning seasons, one playoff appearance and seven coaches in 11 years since. . . . The Mustangs also had a four-game winning streak in 2009, an eight-game winning streak in 2008, four- and six-game winning streaks in 2007 and a

Giants From Page B1 only the third time in 30 starts this season, that Gausman permitted more than three runs. “I thought his stuff was good, you could see he had movement on his pitches,” Kapler said. “The Padres were swinging the bats well the last

six-game winning streak in 2006. . . . The green, black and white play a West Park team that is in its first year of varsity play. As JVs in the spring, the Panthers went 3-2 with wins over Foresthill, Casa Roble and Inderkum, and losses to Oak Ridge and Vista del Lago. . . . . Rodriguez is 2-1 all-time against first-year schools, defeating Burton of San Francisco 40-0 in 2002 in the first game for both schools, edging American Canyon 22-21 in 2011 and losing 41-26 to Franklin of Elk Grove in 2003 in the first game ever for the Wildcats. . . . The Panthers have been outscored 110-45 in their first three games as a varsity team. By comparison, Rodriguez was outscored 111-75 in the first three games of its inaugural 2002 season, but was outscored 303-21 over its final seven contests. . . . Against Napa last week, Mustangs QB Miles Meadows completed 20-of-26 passes for 311 yards, the second 300-yard passing game of his career and the fourth-most in school history, with three TDs. . . . The RHS defense set a school record by limiting Napa to minus-40 yards rushing, topping the minus-10 given up to Vallejo in 2009. . . . West Park stats aren’t available from last week’s loss to El Dorado, though the Cougars passed for 210 yards and ran for 119 while returning an interception for a touchdown. Through their first two games, the Panthers averaged 137 yards passing and 72 rushing per game. Prediction: Rodriguez 54, West Park 7

Vacaville (2-2) vs. Tracy (2-1) When: Today, 7:15 p.m. Where: Zunino Stadium, Vacaville High Series: Tracy leads 3-1 Last meeting: 2019, Vacaville won 49-35 Last week: Vacaville lost to Granite Bay, 14-9; Tracy defeated Pacheco, 48-0 Of note: The Bulldogs celebrate homecoming while trying to end a two-game losing streak. The two losses were by a combined 12 points and in both the offense had a hard time getting going. Against Granite Bay, their scoring was limited to three Ariel Till field goals while Darian Leon-Guerrero was held to a season-low 34 yards rushing on 12 carries. QB Ryan Vaughan completed 13 of 33 passes for 130 yard with one interception. The defense limited the

couple of days. I guess you could chalk it up to running into the best version of themselves.” The Giants started scratching back in the sixth, after Gausman departed. Bryant sliced a double down the rightfield line, took third on Brandon Belt’s fly ball to deep right-center and alertly raced home on a wild pitch that didn’t skip far away from

49ers: Hurting

Grizzlies to 93 yards passing 189 rushing as Vacaville outgained Granite Bay 341-282. . . . Things won’t get any easier this week. In pulverizing Pacheco, Tracy allowed just 30 yards rushing and 51 total. And while the green Bulldogs passed for just 63 yards, two of their three completions went for touchdowns and they rushed for 295 yards and four TDs, led by Austin Ho-Sy’s 84 yards on 13 carries. . . . The first three meetings in the battle of the Bulldogs happened in the Sac-Joaquin Section playoffs in 1979, 1986 and 1989 when Tom Zunino was Vacaville coach. The black and orange dropped all three. Prediction: Vacaville 24, Tracy 20

Rio Vista (2-2) vs. Esparto (1-1) When: Today, 7 p.m. Where: Rio Vista High Series: Rio Vista leads 8-2 (since 2000) Last meeting: 2013, Rio Vista won, 34-6 Last week: Rio Vista lost to Winters, 48-26; Esparto defeated Maxwell, 42-18 Of note: It’s homecoming for the Rams, who will need to play better defense this week to get their record back over .500. Even with the Spartans completing 1-of-2 passes last week for 4 yards, Rio Vista’s job won’t be an easy one as Esparto amassed 403 rushing yards on 37 attempts with Guillermo Aviña leading the way (115 yards and two TDs on six carries) in last week’s mauling of Maxwell. Smart decision making is the key for the Rams, who gave up 208 yards passing on 11-of-15 throwing and 270 rushing on 27 carries to Winters last week. . . . On offense, Boone Hurley was Rio Vista’s top rusher with 53 yards and one TD on five carries, while QB Diego Torres was 7-of-9 for 104 yards and one TD, a 73-yard toss to James Mentee. . . . Rio Vista’s won the last three meetings and six of the last seven, though the 19-0 win in 2009 was forfeited because an ineligible player played for the Rams. Prediction: Rio Vista 38, Esparto 32. Last week’s prediction record: 4-4; Season record:20-9

catcher Austin Nola. The Giants made another dent in San Diego’s lead in the seventh. Pinch hitter Tommy La Stella singled, moved to second on a wild pitch and scored when LaMonte Wade Jr. – yep, that man again – smacked an opposite-field, groundrule double. That trimmed the Giants’ deficit to 4-2, but the Padres responded

— Paul Farmer

with three runs off Tony Watson in the eighth to give San Diego some separation. Much earlier, Gausman limited the damage when the Padres loaded the bases with one out in the second inning. He relinquished one run on Trent Grisham’s sacrifice fly, then struck out pinch hitter Jake Marisnick to end the inning. Gausman hit another

veterans, Josh Norman, 33, and Dre Kirkpatrick, 31, who are likely in their career twilight. And they have rookie third-round pick Ambry Thomas, who had a disappointing training camp. “You don’t compensate for the loss of a guy like Verrett,” Ryans said. “So it’s devastating to lose a guy like that, man. He’s one of the hearts and souls of our back end.” On Sunday, after Verrett was injured midway through the fourth quarter with the 49ers leading 41-17, Lions QB Jared Goff completed 17 of 24 passes for 155 yards with a touchdown, 49ers cornerbacks had pass-interference penalties of 16 and 12 yards, and Detroit outscored the 49ers 16-0. Of course, the 49ers spent part of that game-ending stretch thinking they were in garbage time and briefly removed key players such as linebacker Fred Warner and pass rusher Nick Bosa. The situation will be different this Sunday when they visit the Eagles and quarterback Jalen Hurts, a 2020 secondround pick whose first full season as a starter is

off to a promising start. Hurts completed 27 of 35 passes for 264 yards with three touchdowns in a 32-6 season-opening win over the Falcons. Hurts is mobile – he also rushed for 62 yards on seven carries – but Bosa expects him to prioritize testing the secondary. In that sense, Bosa said he’s different than Murray, who rushed for 819 yards and 11 touchdowns last year. “Kyler’s looking to run and I think Jalen wants to get rid of the ball,” Bosa said. “But when he has the chance (to run), he’ll take it.” Given the situation in the 49ers’ back end, the season-opening work of Bosa and others up front was encouraging. The 49ers can mask some of their deficiencies at cornerback if Bosa and Pro Bowl pass rusher Dee Ford can produce strong comeback seasons after combining to play in three games last year. Bosa and Ford each had a sack against the Lions and Ford had a pressure that led to an interception return for a touchdown. “It really sucks that (Verrett) is out,” Bosa said. “But we definitely have some good corners ... It will be interesting to see who we plug in there, but I’m confident.”

bump in the third, when Fernando Tatis Jr. lined a solo home run over the left-field wall. The ball makes a distinctive sound when a great hitter squares one up – and Tatis crushed this one for his 39th homer of the season. The Padres stretched their lead to 4-0 in the fifth, on Tommy Pham’s two-run double. So the Giants (95-52),

after reeling off nine consecutive wins, suddenly have lost two straight. That doesn’t seem like much, but by now it’s clear the Dodgers (94-53) will not give their longtime rivals much breathing room. And the road doesn’t get any easier for the Giants, who host N.L. East-leading Atlanta in a three-game series starting Friday night.

The Falcons (5-9) opened with a 25-14, 25-19, 26-24 loss to American River of Sacramento. “We got better each set but not enough to push a fourth set,” Solano coach Darla Williams said. “It was our third time playing American River in six days. They are still tough, we can only grow from this experience playing top ranked teams.”

Forecast for Friday, Sept. 17, 2021

Sunday

2019 – a season that ended early for him at the plate because of a knee surgery – then managed just two outings in a short-lived return to the mound in 2020 before being shut down as a pitcher because of a right forearm injury. This year, however, Ohtani became the best pitcher in the Angels’ rotation, dominating with a fastball that occasionally reached 100 mph, an assortment of off-speed and breaking pitches, and consistent command that continued to improve over the course of the year. In 21 starts, he has a

3.36 ERA, 136 strikeouts and a 9-2 record. Maddon mentioned on Thursday that getting to 10 wins is probably a personal goal for Ohtani down the stretch, but that “we can’t permit that to be the driving factor.” “We’re just gonna let it play itself out right now,” Maddon added. “He’ll continue to do his thing, playing catch or whatever. And then we’ll determine if he feels good enough to [make a pitching start] again. I think he can. But we’ve been caught in these circumstances a lot this year, so just have to wait and see.”
