3 Coast Guard auxiliary units help patrol Solano waters Todd R. Hansen

VALLEJO — Glenn Hunter, like so many others after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, was called to action.

“I was hopping mad at what happened, but I was too old to get an active position,” Hunter said about joining the military.

His search to serve led him, instead, to the Coast Guard auxiliary.

He has been serving in

that capacity for 20 year, and is currently the commander of Napa Flotilla 52, working out of Vallejo.

It has 27 members.

There are three Coast Guard auxiliary units that work in Solano County waters.

In addition to Napa, there is North Solano Flotilla 53, which is based out of Suisun City, and the Sacramento Flotilla 35, with an area that includes Rio Vista. North See Units, Page A9

Rio Vista, Vallejo Coast Guard crews keep boaters safe, accountable

FAIRFIELD — Before a new member of the Station Rio Vista Coast Guard crew ever steps onto a boat, that “Coastie” must be able to map out dozens of reference points in the waters being patrolled.

“It is easy to get lost in the Delta,” said Michael Bennett, a boatswain’s mate chief petty officer and commander of Station Rio Vista.

“There are 86 reference points we ask them to memorize,” he said.

“They have to chart them before they get certified.”

The reason is that boaters who get lost rarely will have coordinates to guide rescuers to their location. Typically they describe their locations by noting major points of interest they can see.

The station’s area of responsibility has 1,900 miles of waterways, stretching from the mouth of the Feather River to Tracy, and from Simmons Point west of Pittsburg to the Port of Stockton. There are 95 marinas

and boat launches, 50 bridges and 350 named places.

“It is an area larger than the state of Rhode Island,” information provided by the station states.

It is an area that includes fresh water – namely the Sacramento River and Delta area – as well as coastal shorelines.

Solano County is home to a pair of Coast Guard stations – the other in Vallejo.

The service celebrated its 231st anniversary this year. It was See Crews, Page A6

FAIRFIELD — Ted Puntillo, who has helped thousands of U.S. military veterans get their rightful benefits, said it was years after his return from Vietnam that he ever heard anyone say “thank you for

his service.”

In fact, the U.S. Army veteran, and retiring Veteran Services director for the county, said those words were spoken to him for the first time in 2001.

VALLEJO — The Vallejo Coast Guard crew working out of a temporary facility is expected to move into their new $14 million station in March.

Construction of the 13,200-square-foot facility, which includes a bay for small boat maintenance, sleeping quarters for 14 crew members, a galley, command center, training room and fitness

room, is expected to be completed in February, said Joshua Hollyfield, a boatswain’s mate chief petty officer and commander of Station Vallejo.

He is a 21-year Coast Guard veteran.

Herman Construction Group of Escondido is the contractor.

Station Vallejo consists of 27 crew members and 15 reservists. Auxiliary members also work out of the station.

Solano DA clears officers in 2 use of deadly force cases Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County District Attorney’s Office has cleared law enforcement officers in two use-of-force cases that resulted in the deaths of residents.

One found that that the officer-involved shooting of Mark Meza, 59, of Woodland, was “objectively reasonable and necessary” because Meza, having already rammed one Vacaville patrol car, was driving his truck straight at another officer.

The second concluded that the officer-involved shooting of Carl C. Walker, 29, of Sacramento, was “objectively reasonable and necessary” because Walker abrams had pointed a loaded firearm at an officer.

The incidents took place within nine days of each other.

The first started about 8:25 p.m. Jan. 21 when a silver, two-door pickup truck, driven by Meza,

crashed into the front glass doors of New Life Church, located at 5900 Cherry Glen Road in rural Vacaville, the investigation letter released by the District Attorney’s Office said.

Video footage showed the truck backed up twice after smashing into the door the first time, and twice more slammed into the church doors. His headlight was knocked out during the incident, the letter states.

I’d probably trust in I’ve done little or nothing for sunrises, too, if I ever woke up or with the woman I used to be, in time to see one. But I’m a because basically, life as I once late-to-bed, late-to-rise kind of knew it stopped. person. So sunsets are my thing.

My husband and I sit outside most evenings to watch the sun go down, the moon come up and the stars fill the sky.

I wish you could see it.

I hope you can. I hope you see it often, wherever you may be.

It’s easier, I think, to trust in the future when we realize that the sun seems to know things we might forget, and it keeps rising and setting, rain or shine, to celebrate life twice every day.

Also, I trust people. Real people, neighbors and friends.

You should trust them, too. In the hardest of times, it’s a gift to see good people rise up – not because they have great wealth, but because they have great hearts – to help others in need.

Have you noticed lately what your friends and neighbors are doing? Look around you. It will open your eyes and your heart.

Most of all, I trust in a power that always holds, like the old

song says, “the whole world in his hands.” As a child, my blind brother would quiet his fears by singing himself to sleep. That song was one of his favorites.

It’s one of mine, too.

Finally, I’m learning to trust not in what I see in the mirror, but in what I feel in my soul.

I know I’m getting older. I don’t need a mirror to tell me.

My knees won’t let me forget. I spend as much time as possible with my grandkids, laughing at their jokes, watching them turn cartwheels the way I did a lifetime ago, and telling them stories from “the old days.”

I would also spend time with people my age, but they’re all busy spending time with their grandkids. Or going to see doctors. Or looking for their glasses. Or trying to remember what they dropped on the floor and what else they ought to look for while they’re down there.

I know that’s how they spend

their time because it’s how I spend mine, too. When I’m not making peanut butter cookies.

I think most of us are just hoping to survive this pandemic and pass on to our children and grandchildren a few important things we’ve learned, such as: n Times get hard, but they get better. We help ourselves, but at our best, we help each other. n Failure isn’t falling down.

It’s falling down and failing to get back up and try again. n Mirrors might tell us how old we look, but it’s what we see in the eyes of those we love that tells us how much we mean.

Maybe I’ll stop looking in the mirror. After I color my roots.

education goals. These goals provided the impetus for Bill Clinton’s signature education initiative, the “Goals 2000: Educate America Act,” which codified national education goals and offered grants to states that committed themselves to specific school reforms.

The most ambitious federal penetration into K-12 education was George W. Bush’s “No Child Left Behind Act” (NCLB, 2001), which required academic proficiency standards and related accountability measures (relying primarily on sanctions for underperforming schools).

Barack Obama followed up with a modified version of No Child Left Behind funding through his “American Recovery and Reinvestment Act” called “The Race to the Top,” which offered state grants in exchange for enacting a range of educational reform policies. Finally, Donald Trump had no major K-12 education initiatives; he focused primarily on weakening federal oversight and programs established by Obama.

So where does President Biden fit into this amorphous landscape?

To date, his administration is waiting on Congress to pass his proposed “Build Back Better Plan.” Much of Biden’s strategy is focused on cold, hard cash; a show-me-the-money plan that would more than double federal support to high-poverty districts, rebuild crumbling schools and subsidize pre-kindergarten and community

FAIRFIELD — Members of the Solano County Board of Supervisors do not want Vallejo and Benicia carved out of Rep. Mike Thompson’s 5th congressional district, nor cleaved from Bill Dodd’s 3rd state Senate District.

Solano Covid-19 Cases: By the numbers

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County Public Health Division reported Monday that there has been no significant increase in coronavirus cases due to Halloween activities.

The county reported 99 new cases since Friday’s update, taking the pandemic total to 46,082.

The percentage of Solano County’s population 12 and older who have been fully vaccinated remained unchanged Monday at 70%, but the percentage who have been partially vaccinated increased to 81%, the county reported. Fairfield also became the fifth city in Solano County to reach a vaccination rate of 80% of residents 12 and older.

Solano County’s weekend reporting has tended to be understated due to late state reporting, but Public Health Administrator Jayleen Richards said in a phone interview the data is not showing an uptick experienced in other counties.

“We are still seeing a

plateau (in cases). We did not see an upswing (from Halloween), but we know other counties and entities did,” Richards said.

The county reported that 81% of the residents 12 or older have received at least one shot, up from 80%, while 70% are fully vaccinated.

The county has administered 36,457 booster shots.

World AIDS Day puts spotlight on ongoing efforts to stop disease Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — There are more than 2,200 Solano County residents living with HIV/AIDS. The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday adopted a resolution recognizing Dec. 1 as World AIDS Day, and recognized the local efforts in the treatment and prevention of the disease.

“Local HIV Program surveillance data shows an estimated 2,215 HIV/ AIDS cases in Solano County,” the resolution states, adding that the county “urges all Solano County residents to increase their awareness of the risk of HIV/ AIDS for themselves and their partners, and recognizes that equitable access to HIV testing can help stem the tide of the HIV/ AIDS epidemic.”

Supervisor Erin Hannigan made the presentation and twice

likened the AIDS fight through pharmaceuticals to current efforts with Covid-19.

“We’ve made a lot of strides in AIDS prevention, but also keeping people alive,” Hannigan said.

This year marks the 33rd annual Worlds AIDS commemoration.

Day More than 36 million people have died of AIDSrelated illness, nearly half of the more than 79 million who have been infected, the World Health Organization reports.

“The purpose of World AIDS Day is to acknowledge the millions of people living with HIV/AIDS, celebrate the lives of millions of people who have lost their battle with HIV/

AIDS, raise awareness about the global impact of HIV/AIDS, and applaud the advancements that are allowing more people to live longer and healthier lives,” a staff report to the board states.

The Joint United Nations Program on HIV and AIDS – known as UNAIDS – estimates 37.7 million people worldwide are living with HIV/ AIDS, with 1.5 million new cases of HIV and an estimated 680,000 deaths from AIDS-related illness in 2020 worldwide, according to the resolution adopted by the Board of Supervisors.

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Solano County supervisors agreed Tuesday to send a letter to the state Department of Water Resources seeking $5.125 million in grant funds for four Cache Slough area levee projects.

The action was taken as part of the board’s consent calendar so there was no discussion on the matter.

The letter states that the projects meet the objectives of the January 2020 memorandum of understanding the county reached with DWR. “Since executing the MOU, DWR and county staff collaborated with various local flood management enti-

ties to identify levee projects in the Cache Slough region of Solano County that match with existing state funding sources. In the Cache Slough region alone, Solano County identified 12 key levee projects as part of the Sacramento River Flood Control Project system, totaling over $38 million,” the letter states.

The flood management projects are: n $1.725 million for Reclamation District 2068 to design upgrades on a 2.5-mile levee as part of the Yolo Bypass in order to develop a shovel-ready project for future funding. n $1.725 million for Reclamation District See Levee, Page A4

report to the board states.

The law requires the county and the cities to establish an Edible Food Recovery Program for commercial edible food generators, which are categorized under two tiers.

Tier 1 edible food generators include supermarkets and grocery stores with a total facility size greater than 10,000 square feet, and food distributors.

Local examples of a Tier 1 generator include

Costco, Food Maxx and Producers Dairy Foods.

Tier 2 generators include restaurants with a facility size equal to or greater than 5,000 square feet, health facilities with an on-site food facility and 100 or more beds, and local education agency facilities with an on-site food facility. Examples of Tier 2 generators include Texas Roadhouse, Paradise Valley Estates and Fairfield High School.

The new edible food

recovery law goes into effect Jan. 1 for Tier 1 generators and Jan. 1, 2024, for Tier 2 generators.

Another part of the law, however, focuses on removing food waste from the landfill, similarly to how paper, plastics and other recyclable materials are removed now.

The law also has recycling and water-saving requirements for the construction industry.

In other action, the board:

n Approved a $163,700 amendment to the agreement with First Carbon Solutions, FCS International Inc., for the preparation of a California Environmental Quality Act initial checklist and associated technical analyses for the proposed Solano360 Project, for a total contract of $414,900; approved a reimbursement of $69,600 to Vallejo contract planner for costs related to the

The cost of the new position is offset by a greater savings from the deleted position for the remainder of the 2021-22 fiscal year. The additional cost for subsequent years is $54,994 as a result of the $227,695 annual salary and benefits for the civil engineer position compared to the $172,701 for the environmental engineer position.

The proposed map suggests it would be Assemblyman Jim Frazier, who lives in Fairfield, but Michelle Heppner, who is the point person on local, state and federal redistricting efforts for the county administration, said that is not a certainty.

The map does seem to show, however, that the home bases for Assemblywoman Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, D-Winters, and Tim Grayson, D-Concord, are outside the boundaries of the proposed district.

Board Chairman John Vasquez admitted that it felt odd to support all of Solano in a single Senate district, but have reservations about a single Assembly district. He thought there is some advantage to have a different voice for the various parts of Solano, which can

Red Cross seeks to offset shortage, schedules blood drive in Vallejo Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

VALLEJO — The American Red Cross is concerned the flu season could negatively affect an already low blood supply, which the organization reports is at its lowest level in a decade.

A blood drive has been scheduled for 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Nov. 27 at First Baptist Church Vallejo, located at 2025 Sonoma asked Blvd. Donors are to schedule an appointment prior to arriving at the drive.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported that flu cases were at an all-time low last year, largely due to masking and other protocols residents adhered to during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.

That likely resulted in reduced immunity for the flu, the CDC said.

“When seasonal illness increases, the number of healthy blood donors tends to decrease.

Paired with winter weather, busy holiday

A blood drive has been scheduled for 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at First Baptist Church Vallejo. schedules and ongoing Covid-19 concerns, the already-struggling blood supply could be further impacted throughout winter,” the American Red Cross noted in a statement.

Getting a flu shot or a Covid-19 vaccine or booster shot does not affect anyone’s ability to give blood.

“There is no blood donation waiting period for those who have received a flu shot or a Moderna, Pfizer or Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine or booster, so long as they are symptom-free,” the statement said.

Donors are urged to schedule an appointment by using the Red Cross

Blood Donor App, visiting RedCrossBlood.org or calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).

To encourage blood donations, those who give blood through Nov. 23 will receive a $10 Amazon. com gift card by email.

Those who donate around the Thanksgiving holiday, Nov. 24-28, will receive a pair of Red Cross socks, while supplies last.

Donors can save up to 15 minutes at the blood drive by completing the pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of donation, from a mobile device or computer. Go to RedCrossBlood.org/ RapidPass or use the Red Cross Blood Donor App that’s available at www.

redcrossblood.org/blooddonor-app.html.

Individuals need to bring a blood donor card or driver’s license, or two other forms of identification, at check-in.

Donors must be at least 17 years old – 16 with parental consent – weigh at least 110 pounds and be in generally good health.

“Red Cross is screening all blood, platelet and plasma donations from self-identified African American donors for the sickle cell trait. This additional screening will provide Black donors with an additional health insight and help the Red Cross identify compatible blood types more quickly to help patients with sickle cell disease who require trait-negative blood,” the statement said.

The organization reports that donors can expect to receive sickle cell trait screening results, if applicable, within one to two weeks through the Red Cross Blood Donor App and the online donor portal at RedCrossBlood.org.

chase involving several police patrol cars through city streets, and included, at one point, Meza ramming into one of the patrol cars.

The incident came to a conclusion when Officers Daniel Baxley and Reyes had positioned their cars to box in the truck. Baxley exited his car and ordered Meza to stop, the District Attorney’s letter states.

The truck instead accelerated. Baxley was aware of the earlier ramming incident and “decided his only option was to discharge his firearm at Meza to stop the threat.”

Nine shots were fired at the windshield before the truck came to a stop.

The second incident occurred about 10:30 p.m. Jan. 30 and followed a single-car crash on westbound Interstate 80 near the Midway Road exit.

As two California Highway Patrol officers, Matthew Barawed and Scott Hardman, responded to the scene, they engaged the driver of the Volkswagen Jetta, later identified as Walker.

Walker appeared to be “highly intoxicated” and had his hand inside his waistband. The officers ordered him to remove his hand, but Walker refused, the District Attorney’s letter on that incident states.

Eventually, Walker pulled out a 9 mm Polymer 80 handgun, pointing it away from the officers toward the I-80 westbound lanes.

He was ordered to drop the gun.

“For the next minute and 26 seconds, Officers Barawed and Hardman pleaded with Mr. Walker to drop the gun. The officers asked Mr. Walker to drop the gun at least 22 times,” the letter states.

Walker refused and then pointed the gun at Hardman.

“Fearing for his partner’s life, Officer Barawed discharged his firearm three times,” the District Attorney’s letter states.

In addition to the District Attorney’s Office multiple-agency Major Crime Task Force, the matters were investigated by the CHP’s Interdisciplinary Accident Investigation Team.

founded Aug. 4, 1790, as the Revenue-Marine. It was renamed the Revenue Cutter Service in 1894, and 21 years later, merged with the U.S. Life-Saving Service.

Similar to Rio Vista, the Coast Guard crews at Vallejo also patrol freshwater areas – mainly the Napa River – and coastal shorelines, as well as the Carquinez Strait, and specifically San Pablo Bay east out to Simmons Point and as far north as Suisun Bay. The complexity of the duty is what helps keep the job interesting, said Joshua Hollyfield, a boatswain’s mate chief petty officer and commander of Station Vallejo. He has been at that station since 2002. He comes to the job with 21 years of experience.

Perhaps the incident that Hollyfield remembers most vividly is a rescue mission he could not complete.

He was the coxswain on a 41-foot vessel that was sent out to help a family on a distressed sailboat. His boat was the only one in the vicinity.

“The seas got over 20 feet,” Hollyfield recalls about the incident, which occurred in 2005 or 2006.

“We ended up losing an engine about a mile away (from the sailboat),” he said, adding the situation created a fire risk and other issues that also threatened the boat’s second engine.

“We had to take special measures to protect the second engine,” Hollyfield said.

In the end, though, he had to call off the mission for the safety of his own crew.

“What is really hard is we could hear them on the radio: ‘Come back, come back,’ ” Hollyfield said.

along the Carquinez Strait with other members based at U.S. Coast Guard Station Vallejo, Oct. 13.

By the time a second rescue vessel could get to the scene, the sailboat and the family aboard were lost.

Bennett has not had to make that kind of decision, but just the possibility is why he develops such close relationships and trust with the coxswains under his command.

Ultimately, it would be his call, but so much depends on those who are on the boats.

Bennett did, however, have a run in with Somali pirates in 2009, an incident that occurred about three weeks after the now famous maritime

hijacking of the Maersk Alabama and kidnapping of Capt. Richard Phillips, a story depicted in the Tom Hanks’ film.

The adventure ended with the arrest of 12 pirates.

Bennett also was part of a dramatic rescue of 16 Cuban emigrants who were dumped without food or water on the Monito Islands. The Coast Guard had to extract each of them one at a time because of the conditions of the landing area.

While Bennett still goes out on patrols occasionally, running the boats is not his job anymore.

Service From Page One didn’t thank us too much,” Puntillo told the Board of Supervisors on Tuesday.

He was part of the celebration of Veterans Day, which is Thursday.

“There’s still a lot of work to do,” said retired Sgt. Maj. Jesse Branch, who appeared in his Marine Corps uniform.

“So let’s continue to support all our veterans.”

The supervisors adopted a resolution “to

after that.

“When it comes to search and rescue in the Bay Area, every second counts,” Hollyfield said at the time of the ceremony. “The new station, which has been years in the making, will allow the crew to be co-located with our small boats, greatly improving our response time to continue to protect the lives of mariners in Vallejo and the greater Bay Area.”

The station patrols

“The Solano County Board of Supervisors do hereby salute on Veterans Day those who have served or are serving our armed forces, and we encourage everyone to recognize their service, valor, and sacrifice, and we call upon everyone to display the flag of the United States of America, to participate in patriotic activities in our communities, including civic and fraternal

the Napa River as well as the coastline areas that include San Pablo Bay out to Simmons Point and as far north as Suisun Bay. The station was first commissioned as Station Carquinez in 1977, located at the Mare Island Naval Shipyard. It relocated at the California State University Maritime Academy in 1996, and to the Vallejo Municipal Marina in 2001. It moved to its current location in 2018.

about 230 search-and-rescue calls each year. The station has three vessels, all 29-foot fast response boats, with 27 active members, with three more that were expected to arrive in late October.

Station Vallejo consists of 27 active members and 15 reservists, with three 29-foot fast response boats. The station averages about 100 search-and-rescue missions each year. Crews responded to 80 searchand-rescue cases in 2020, resulting in 76 lives saved or assisted.

Both Coast Guard stations also are responsible for law enforcement in their waters.

Station Vallejo recently boarded a vessel and found large quantities of marijuana and what turned out to be methamphetamine. The Coast Guard then coordinated with the Solano County Sheriff’s Office on the arrest of the boat’s captain.

Bennett, who arrived at Rio Vista in June 2020 and will have been in the Coast Guard 14 years come April, said working with other area agencies – police, fire, ambulance and others – is an important part of the job.

He also has made a point of having the station involved in the community, participating in festivals and other events, and having members of his crew speak to clubs and other organizations as well.

“We are thankful to have that community interaction,” Bennett said.

“You can have a conversation with an 8-year-old and you never know,

40 years from now, he could be the next Coast Guard commander.”

He said he was very much influenced by members of the Coast Guard who lived in the same part of Maine where he grew up, and his father was a civilian employee.

“It was the only one for me. I didn’t even consider another service,” Bennett said.

Until they move into their new station in March, the crew in Vallejo is a bit more isolated from the community for now.

Still, a big part of the job is educating boaters and others using the area waters on safety rules and regulations.

Hollyfield also strongly advises anyone looking to buy a boat to fully educate themselves on where and when they intend to use it, and then make sure the craft is fit for those uses and has the equipment needed as well. He said boat buyers cannot depend on the sellers – including commercial outlets – to provide that information.

Bennett said planning for a boating trip is critical, “and always make sure someone knows where you are going and where you are supposed to be.”

He also said every boat should have a fire extinguisher and those using the boat need to be trained on how to use it.

And both commanders could not emphasize enough the importance of having the appropriate life jackets – size- and agespecific – and to remember they will not save anyone if tucked away during the voyage.

This is the 83rd annual commemoration, which started as Armistice Day and became Veterans Day in 1954. It dates back to the end of World War I and is commemorated

by nations around the globe, including Belgium, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Serbia, Romania and Bulgaria.

Board Chairman John Vasquez then had all the people in attendance who had served to come down to be part of the picture with the supervisors.

“It is about service. It is about giving something back to your community and your nation,” said Vasquez, who served in the U.S. Army National Guard in California and Alaska.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Sometimes you follow your muses, but today, they follow you, tugging at your sleeve, whispering in your ear, pulling your attention to the things with most creative potential.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You’ve given slightly more than you had to give, which put you in a deficit. So if you find yourself struggling in some way, the answer is to stop and replenish. This will keep you from getting in way over your head.

moved out, but I live in his home. He comes home every other weekend to see me. And to check on the house. He tells me he likes spending time with me, and we talk for hours on the phone and when he is here. A four-hour phone conversation is nothing to us.

The problem is he is dating another woman. She knows about me and our friendship but doesn’t like it. I don’t think she is good for him, but he doesn’t see it. I still love him very much, and I know he loves me.

He told me he compares other women to me all the time and it’s not fair to them.

I just don’t know what to do.

Should I not be here when he wants to talk or see me? Or do I continue to be here for him and hope that one day he’ll realize we are meant to be? — Heartbroken.

Dear Heartbroken: In order to fully heal, you have to detox from him for at least two months. That means don’t see him at all and don’t have any contact with him. If you two are meant to be, you will be, but allowing him to see other women when it hurts you like it does is not fair to you at all. It’s time for you to find happiness and joy with someone who only wants you.

Bridge

normally you take it, hoping it will win.

However, there are times when you don’t take the finesse, for one reason or another.

In today’s deal, how should South play in four hearts after West leads the spade five?

South had an awkward bid over East’s one-spade opening. He might have jumped to four hearts, but that action is usually treated as preemptive.

If an opponent bid again, South would have had to double to tell his partner that he was bidding to make. Or South might have doubled, planning to bid hearts next, but he was worried that West would jump to four spades. So South settled for two hearts.

When the deal was originally played, the declarer immediately ran the heart queen. As you can see, that lost to the king, and South had to go down one, conceding one heart, one diamond and two clubs.

The Coast Guard auxiliary is the only uniformed auxiliary linked to U.S. armed services, and participants must have security clearance.

It was founded in 1941, renamed after first being called the Coast Guard Reserves in 1938.

There are more than 1,600 auxiliary members in District 11, and nationally, there are about 24,000 volunteers serving in the Coast Guard Auxiliary. That number had been 36,000 prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, auxiliary officials said.

The auxiliaries have similar safety responsibilities as the regular Coast Guard, but have no law enforcement duties or authority. Boaters who ignore the auxiliary crews, however, are very likely to be visited by the regular Coast Guard.

Steve Harrison, who completed 186 missions as an Air Force navigator and bombardier in Vietnam, has, over 14 years in the auxiliary, logged in more than 20,000 hours standing watch at Station Rio Vista, and has been involved in nearly 600 search and rescue operations.

He said the work and hanging around the “coasties” keep him young.

Search and rescue – as well as educating the public on all things boating and water safety, including providing classes to meet new California safety course regulations – are the primary duties of the auxiliary members.

Hunter remembers a two-hour search operation he was involved in before the woman was located.

Even then, they could not get their vessel, the 38-foot String of Pearls, into the tules where the woman was found.

“And that woman was near death,” Hunter said.

So the auxiliary members tossed water and other provisions to the woman until the Coast Guard could arrive, and coordinating with an area ambulance service, rescued the woman.

All the vessels the auxiliary uses are private boats, though the Coast Guard does provide some of the equipment on the boats. And some auxiliary units have air assets, too.

The Napa unit has two vessels, one 22-footer and the other is 29 feet; the North Solano unit has two vessels, one is a 24-footer and one is 27 feet; and the Sacramento Flotilla has two vessels, a 19-footer and a 25-footer.

Kit Galvin, the commander of the North Solano Flotilla, was actually terrified of water when she decided to join the auxiliary with her husband, Bob, who was a Navy veteran.

“It was strange: I was a non-swimmer and afraid

of water my whole life,” Galvin said. Her father served in the Air Force.

But she and her husband had retired and were looking to live closer to family. When they moved from San Jose to Solano County, her husband learned about the auxiliary, and since she too was looking for volunteer opportunities, decided to join as well – but only after seeing the survival suit and other safety protocols used when in the water.

“I think what I like best is there are so many things out there that we can do . . . whether that is from home during Covid, or out on the water or just talking to the public,” she said.

One of the programs she thinks is particularly important is the America’s Waterway Watch, which encourages people to report suspicious activities they see.

“It’s up to us to be their eyes because the Coast Guard cannot be everywhere,” Galvin said.

“I really get concerned with water safety, swimming, boating,” she said.

“I am really concerned that people are not being as safe as they should be.”

Hunter said the biggest challenge for the auxiliary right now is the aging volunteers, and the lack of younger individuals who want to serve.

He said he built up his service time, having joined when he was running his own business.

“You can always find time,” Hunter said, adding the best reason he can think of for getting involved. “I would say service before self.”

FAIRFIELD — The latest storm to move through the area added more than three-quarters of an inch of on central rainfall Solano County as of midafternoon Tuesday.

Vanden girls tennis wins D-3 Section title Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The Vanden High School girls tennis team won the SacJoaquin Section Division III title Monday with a 6-3 victory over Central Catholic of Modesto at Oak Park in Stockton.

It was the Vikings first title since earning back-to-back section coed championships in 2004 and 2005. Five of the girls on the team were also part of the squad two years ago that lost to Manteca 5-4 in the section final.

“It is awesome that they were able to turn that around this time,” Vanden head coach Stan Lewis wrote in an email. “All of our players had exceptional seasons and showed that you can show great sportsmanship and still win championships.”

The early straight set matches put the Vikings up 4-1. Jeanelle DelaCruz defeated Paula Rizo 6-1, 6-3 at No. 6 singles.

The No. 1 doubles team of Maritza Garcia and Hailey Lam defeated Adrianna Saldivan and Kiley Freitas 6-1, 6-3.

Vanden won at No.

2 and No. 3 singles with Sasha Smith defeating Victoria Borba 6-0, 6-3 and Delaney Ramsell defeating Mianna Robinson 6-1, 6-1, respectively.

Camille Arca fell to Caden Wilson 6-1, 6-3 in No. 4 singles.

The No. 2 doubles team of Danali Harwick and Kaylani Payne sealed the victory, storming back after losing the first set 6-3 with 6-1, 6-1 victories to close the match over Cordeli Essers and Isis Zuleta.

Jasmine Yabut went into a tiebreaker in the third set of her No.

5 singles for a 6-1, 3-6, 7-6(4) win over Marin Freitas for the sixth and final victory.

Maya Kyanna lost the No. 1 singles match 6-4, 1-6, 3-6. The Vikings also lost the No. 3 doubles match as Kamsi Onwuazombe and Kalyse Pane fell to Peyton Garrett and Valeria Rocha 6-4, 1-6, 5-7.

“I was really impressed with the effort and calmness that all of our players showed in a really big match,” Lewis wrote in the email. “Our singles got us off to a nice lead and then our doubles teams,

Rodriguez girls finish 9th at NorCal golf Daily Republic Staff

Wesley Hitt/Getty Images/TNS File (2021)

Aaron Rodgers, 12, of the Green Bay Packers passes against the Detroit Lions during the first half at Lambeau

Field, Sept. 20, in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Rodgers has been facing heat off the field as well.

Packers’ Rodgers offers half-hearted non-apology over anti-vax diatribe Tribune Content Agency Aaron Rodgers returned to “The Pat McAfee Show” four days after lighting his reputation on fire, and it appears the only thing the Packers star learned is just how much he really doesn’t like people getting mad at him.

Last week, Rodgers claimed to be ready for the obvious backlash against his proudly unvaccinated stance.

“The right is gonna champion me and the left is gonna cancel me,” he said Friday. “I don’t give a s--- about either of them.”

But he seemed slightly rattled by the reaction he’s received. The 3-time NFL MVP felt “crucified” and “very unhappy” after admitting he hadn’t received a Covid vaccine, according to a People magazine report.

He did the bare minimum to try to win back fans Tuesday, offering up a weak apology but sticking by his unvaxxed guns.

“I made some comments that people might have felt were misleading,” he said. “To anybody who felt misled by those comments, I take full responsibility for

those comments.”

But it was clear that Rodgers himself did not think his various false claims about the virus were misleading. A.J. Hawk, his former Packers teammate and semi-regular McAfee Show co-host, asked him if he had educated himself any more over the weekend. “I stand by what I said,” Rodgers responded. “I’ve been really insulated and on my own, choosing to go inward.”

Later in the show, Rodgers finally copped to lying about his own vaccination status, saying “And I misled some people

about my status, which I take full responsibility for those comments.”

McAfee briefly pressed Rodgers Tuesday. After he said he had consulted with a dream team of medical experts last week but only named podcaster Joe Rogan, the former NFL punter belatedly followed up. “I consulted with a lot of doctors,” Rodgers claimed. McAfee asked “Dr. Joe Rogan and which other doctors?” and did not receive a straight answer.

After a few minutes of this, McAfee’s appetite for grilling ran out.

FAIRFIELD — The Rodriguez High School girls golf team finished ninth overall at the Northern California Regional Championships on Monday at the Berkeley County Club in El Cerrito.

Rodriguez shot 433 as a team. Valley Christian of San Jose was the overall champion with a team score of 391.

Granite Bay, a team that finished ahead of Rodriguez in the Sac-Joaquin Section, topped Palo Alto for second, 402 to 403.

Nikki Chindavong was the top individual finisher for Rodriguez with a 7-over-par 79 and was 26th overall. Chindavong birdied the par 4, 310-yard fourth hole.

The ninth and final state individual qualifying score was a +5.

Erica Villegas finished 31st with an 8-over-par 80. Darla May De La Torre was right behind Villegas with a 10-over-par

Tribune Content Agency Just in case anyone forgot, Stephen Curry reminded everyone Monday night he’s still in a class of his own with a basketball in his hands.

Curry delivered another performance for the ages by becoming – at 33 years old – the oldest player in NBA history with 50 points or more and 10 or more assists in a game.

He also joined James Harden as the only two players in the last 40 years to score 50-plus points with 10-plus assists in a game, while playing 35 or fewer minutes.

This latest Curry flurry boosted the Warriors NBA-best record to 9-1 after a 127-113 victory over the Hawks and further served notice he and his teammates are for real.

It didn’t matter that the Warriors’ two-time MVP hadn’t scored more than 20 points in a game in four straight games for the first time since 2014. Or that Curry’s

relatively slow start led to careerlow shooting totals of 43% on field goals and 37% on 3-pointers.

Strangely enough, it was inconsequential that Draymond Green came into Monday’s game with a higher 3-point shooting percentage (37.5%) than Curry’s.

One could just sense it was time for Curry to shine as he matched up against Atlanta’s Trae Young, his would-be replacement some day as the NBA’s best shooter. One person, in particular, clearly saw this coming.

In a quintessential example of Game recognizing Game, WNBA superstar Candace Parker correctly predicted what Curry would do Monday night.

“Steph is (gonna) have 50 tonight. . . Anytime you play against a young protégé you gotta let ‘em know.” Parker tweeted minutes before the game.

Curry never dares to envision those big nights. But he’s

happy to roll with them once they start happening.

“You never come out with a certain number in mind, but when you get it going, just keep going,” Curry told reporters after the game.

Curry’s path to his latest “50-piece” featured 14-for-28 shooting, including 9-of-19 shooting on 3-pointers, to go along with 10 assists and three steals in 35 minutes. His 13-for-13 effort from the foul line increased his NBA-best free-throw percentage to 98.0%.

By the time Curry left the game to a standing ovation late in the fourth quarter, he had also joined Wilt Chamberlain and Rick Barry as the only players in Warriors history to achieve the 50-point, 10-assist feat. At 33, Curry edged the then-31-year-old Wilt as the oldest NBA player ever to See Curry, Page B9

49ers’ problems involve roster and rookies Tribune Content Agency

Another historic night for Curry

82 that earned her 36th.

De La Torre birdied the par 5, 458-yard eighth hole.

Destiny Rose Mendiola was 65th with a 102, Noelle Concepcion finished 69th with a 103 and Tristiane Soto was 79th with a 115. Concepcion birdied the par 4, 292-yard 18th hole. Soto had a birdie on the par 3, 116-yard second hole.

“These young ladies had a tremendous season and we look forward to seeing all that they can accomplish in the next few years at RHS,” Rodriguez athletic director Tracy Lopez said.

Jaclyn LaHa of Amador Valley was the individual champion.

She beat out Olivia Duan of Cupertino. Both golfers shot 1-over for the round and LaHa had an eagle on the second playoff hole for the championship.

The state championship will take place Nov. 16 at Poppy Hills in Pebble Beach.

San Francisco 49ers fans are angry about the state of the team following Sunday’s loss to the Arizona Cardinals, who were playing backup quarterback Colt McCoy, while Kyler Murray watched from the sideline with an ankle injury.

“I know we’re a 3-5 team right now,” head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday on his weekly conference call. “I believe we should have a better team (than) that record, and I know that starts with me.”

Indeed, Shanahan is the head coach of an underperforming team. There are nine games remaining and San Francisco is just one game back of a playoff spot, even if a playoff game seems like a mountain range away. The team has games against current

No. 7 seed Atlanta (4-4), Minnesota (3-5) and Seattle (3-5), which are ahead of them in the Wild Card standings, so there is an opportunity to jump back into the mix with a hot streak down the stretch.

Not all is lost – yet, anyway.

But as the embarrassing losses mount, especially at home, where the 49ers haven’t won since Oct. 18, 2020, pressure will grow and some will call for Shanahan’s job. That’s just how the NFL works.

As disappointing as this season is, Shanahan isn’t going to be judged in job security terms by owner/CEO Jed York until he can determine if rookie Trey Lance will be a winning franchise quarterback.

The team made it clear there was a longterm vision in mind when it See 49ers, Page B9

Can rested Bucaneers pull off another post-bye surge in NFL? Tribune Content Agency TAMPA, Fla. — His mostly tranquil bye week included a few days with family at his lake house smack in Georgia’s solar plexus. But in its waning stage, Bruce Arians’ time of decompression was pre-empted by disarray.

The Falcons shocked the Saints.

The Broncos embarrassed the Cowboys (the day’s biggest surprise to Arians). The Rams lost to a Titans lineup devoid of Derrick Henry. This given Sunday turned out to be a doozy.

“There’s so many things – watching those games (Sunday) – that we can learn from,” Arians said Monday, following a brief indoor practice at AdventHealth Training Center.

“We talked about that this morning, showing up for work every day and being ready to play.”

Among the most well-chronicled components of the Bucs’ historic 2020 title run was how their bye week was preceded by a swoon (three losses in four games) and followed by a surge. They were 7-5 when their bye (the franchise’s latest since 1990) arrived in Week 13, then reeled off eight wins in a row, including three consecutive road playoff triumphs.

Now, they’re hoping the developments of the last two weekends – their Halloween debacle in New Orleans and Sunday’s rash of upsets – can trigger a sequel in 2021. If not a nine-game win streak to end the regular season, at least a more disciplined approach and

Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians, right, said his team can take quite a few lessons from the rash of upsets that occurred Sunday. fewer lapses in intensity.

“Just staying focused and playing disciplined football,” center Ryan Jensen said Monday.

“That’s what’s been hurting us a little bit in some of these closer games that we’ve had, and obviously hurt us two weeks ago in New Orleans. But just playing more disciplined football is what we’re going to have to do, and that comes from players holding other players accountable and just making sure we’re doing the right thing.”

Accountability flowed from the top down Monday. Veteran team captain Lavonte David told reporters he had a “personal conversation” with fellow inside linebacker Devin White on the penalties he amassed against the Saints that cost White more than $25,000 in fines from the NFL. David said Arians also addressed

the team’s self-infliction, which reared itself routinely in New Orleans (11 penalties, 99 yards).

The Bucs’ 580 penalty yards are the NFL’s second-most behind only the Browns (602), who have played one more game.

A similar commitment to cleaner football was established following last season’s 20-19 loss to the Bears in Week Five, when they were flagged 11 times for 109 yards.

From there, Tampa Bay averaged only 3.9 penalties for 29.2 yards in their last 15 contests.

After the Week 13 bye, efficiency also peaked. In the eight games that followed the off weekend, the Bucstotaledfive turnovers, matching their total from the three games before the bye.

Fast forward to 2021, and the Bucs again find themselves rested, re-calibrated, and ready.

Cal’s home game vs. USC postponed Tribune Content Agency Cal’s home football game scheduled for Saturday against USC has been postponed until next month because of additional Covid-19 cases that have left the Bears without enough players to field a team, the school announced Tuesday afternoon.

The Bears were without seven starters and 24 players, including quarterback Chase Garbers, due to a combination of injuries and Covid protocols over the weekend in a 10-3 loss at Arizona.

The school said in a statement that Saturday’s game was postponed because additional players tested positive for Covid-19 and are unavailable to practice this week or be cleared in

time for the game. The team reportedly has a 99 percent vaccination rate among players.

The teams announced later Tuesday that the game has been rescheduled for Saturday, Dec. 4, the day after the Pac-12 championship game.

It is the first FBS game called off this season because of coronavirus issues. Last season, four of Cal’s eight scheduled games were canceled because of Covid.

“It was a difficult decision to postpone this Saturday’s game against USC,” Cal Director of Athletics Jim Knowltonsaid in a statement.

“We know how important every one of our games is to our student-athletes, especially our seniors who have been incredible representatives of the

program, but it was the right thing to do. Due to additional impact on specific position groups, we have decided to postpone Saturday’s game.

We have had multiple Covid-19 positives within our program, and we are taking every step we can to mitigate the spread and protect the greater community.”

In the statement, Cal coach Justin Wilcox said, “Postponing this game was a last resort and not an action any of us wanted to take, however it was not possible for us to field a team on Saturday.”

Fans with tickets for Saturday’s game will receive direct communication from the Cal Athletics Department Cal’s next scheduled game is against Stanfordon Nov. 20. There was a chance Cal would have to

forfeit after this summer the conference amended its rules regarding forfeits after not pinning a loss on a team that could not play because of COVID during the 2020 season.

But the league also noted that, “The Pac-12 rule provides the Commissioner with discretion to determine whether an institution is at fault or primarily at fault for an instability to play a contest based on the facts of the situation.”

Monday night, Garbers tweeted out his and his teammates’ frustration with how the university’s Health Services had handled COVID testing before the Arizona game, saying, the tests are not mandated and should not be required and that “We have worked too hard to have someone take this all away from us.”

California gets small share of infrastructure bill

alifornia will receive about $45.5 billion from the infrastructure improvement legislation that Congress approved last week, which sounds like a lot of money.

In fact, it’s the largest share of the $1.2 trillion program of any state and President Joe Biden wants Californians to be appreciative.

“The historic Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act will make life better for millions of California residents, create a generation of good-paying union jobs and economic growth, Dan Walters and position the United States to win the 21st century,” the White House said in a statement detailing the state’s share.

Gov. Gavin Newsom echoed the White House, saying, “This historic infrastructure package stands to accelerate investments in our clean transportation infrastructure, help mitigate some of the worst impacts of climate change and accelerate new projects that will create thousands of jobs.”

Virtually every Democratic member of Congress from California issued a similarly upbeat statement predicting that the new federal funds would have a transformative impact.

From a relative standpoint, however, California’s allocation is small. At just over $1,200 per Californian, it’s one of the lowest of any state. States with relatively small populations, such as Alaska and Vermont, benefit the most on a per-resident basis.

Two-thirds of California’s share, about $30 billion over five years, is reserved for repairing roads, highways and bridges and we can certainly use it because, as the White House breakdown observes, “For decades, infrastructure in California has suffered from a systemic lack of investment.”

Our highways rate at or near the bottom vis-à-vis those of other states simply because ever since the 1960s, governors and legislators have been unwilling to impose the taxes on motorists to keep what was once the nation’s best roadway network in good repair.

Four years ago, then-Gov. Jerry Brown and legislators passed a $5.4 billion per year package of taxes and fees to slow the system’s deterioration but while it narrowed the gap, it did not close it. The new injection of federal money will be welcome, but will fall short of doing what’s needed to restore our roadways to their previous levels.

Another $9.45 billion (over five years) is ticketed “to improve public transportation options across the state.”

There will be no shortage of applicants for those funds. Local and regional transit systems will be vying for slices of the pie and it could be a factor in whether Newsom and legislative leaders resolve their impasse over the state’s much-troubled bullet train project.

Newsom wants the Legislature to provide the remaining $4.2 billion from a 2007 bond issue to finance continued construction of a bullet train section in the San Joaquin Valley while legislative leaders want to divert the money into local and regional commuter transit.

The new federal money could lubricate a compromise – using it to satisfy the legislative demands while giving the bullet train the $4.2 billion.

The remainder of California’s share of the infrastructure bill, roughly $5.5 billion, would mostly be spent on improvements in water systems ($3.5 billion) and airports ($1.5 billion).

So will the federal largesse make a big difference in Californians’ lives, as the White House and Newsom proclaim?

Not likely. In a state with nearly 40 million residents, a $3 trillion economy and a $200-plus billion state budget, spending an extra $45.5 billion over five years is the proverbial drop in the bucket.

By overstating its impact, Newsom and other politicians may give the impression that all of California’s infrastructure problems will be solved when, in fact, we will still have huge deficiencies, particularly in transportation and water.

the trust on which all depends. It furthers the already pervasive notion that, rules be damned, the fix is in.

In a recent campus appearance, Russian chess champion and human rights advocate Garry Kasparov surprised his audience with two answers, one to a question about threats to democracy, and another about how to lower the level of polarization afflicting American society.

Kasparov, who unlike today’s pseudo-socialists has the advantage of actually having lived in Utopia, replied to both questions not by espousing specific policies or issues but by defending process. He confessed error in his early support of Boris Yeltsin, whom he said was correct in opposing a return to communism but wrong in resorting to force to do so. Kasparov linked that action to the nation’s subsequent collapse back into tyranny: “What we didn’t understand is that democracy is a process, not a result.

The moment you go against the process, the moment you accept that your guy, who has the best intentions in this world, can violate the rules, can rig the result with a little bit of a tweak – it starts with little tweaks here and there – then that’s it.”

I’m really worried that you see on one side people say, ‘Oh, since we lost, the election was rigged.’ On the other side you say, ‘Oh, we won, so we have to rig the system to make sure we will win next time.’ ” Eschewing “working around” and returning to “working within” would be a step back toward the comity, community and public confidence we now see so little of.

Branagh’s ‘Belfast’ a childhood remembrance steeped in heartbreak

Crossword

K atie Walsh

Tribune News Service

H

alfway through “Belfast,” Sir Kenneth Branagh’s deeply personal cinematic memoir of growing up in Northern Ireland during The Troubles, Branagh’s child avatar, Buddy (newcomer Jude Hill) receives some words of reassurance from his grandfather, Pop (Ciarán Hinds). He tells him, “you’re Buddy, from Belfast 15, and you’ll always be Buddy from Belfast 15. That’s the truth. It’ll keep you safe, and it’ll keep you happy.”

With “Belfast,” Branagh, the lauded actor and director known for his Shakespearean adaptations, reconnects with Buddy from Belfast 15, remembering who that boy was, what he wanted, who he loved, and what his hopes and dreams were. It’s an emotional and intimate film, a childhood remembrance steeped in nostalgia and heartbreak; a love letter to a hometown written from the soul.

Set in 1969, during the early years of The Troubles, Buddy’s hometown has become a battlefield, a war waged street to street and house to house, with car bombs and Molotov cocktails. Buddy’s home, where he lives with his Ma (Caitriona Balfe), brother Will (Lewis McAskie) and Pa (Jamie Dornan), is on a mixed Protestant and Catholic street that comes under attack, though their windows remain intact because they’re Protestant.

This constant threat of violence becomes a part of everyday life, the patrolled barricade of paving stones and burned out cars a symbol of the trauma and disruption that eventually becomes a quotidian aspect of the landscape.

Against this backdrop of civil war and conflict, life goes on. The family still loves and plays and parties and learns and laughs together, but the constant thrum of helicopters and armed military is ever present. Familial conflicts play out against this backdrop too, though they are inextricably connected with The Troubles.

Pa works in England, returning home on weekends when he can. He encourages his family to move to England, to be together and to escape the encroaching violence, but Ma resists. Belfast is her home, with relatives and friends on every street, where her accent isn’t foreign.

These conflicts, both political and domestic, are witnessed from a child’s perspective, seen through Buddy, peering through the rails of a banister or from extreme low angle shots, which mimic an adult remembering a childhood point of view. This childlike perspective highlights

Branagh and cinematographer Haris Zambarloukos shot “Belfast” in black and white, with large format lenses, freezing the people, places, and faces in time. Buddy’s beloved movies, from “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” to “One Million Years B.C.” are presented in color, their stunning timelessness reflected on his face, as he falls in love with storytelling and cinema. He uses his favorite movies and TV shows to process the world around him: a military stand-off with Protestant militants is set to “Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darlin” from “High Noon.” The rest of the soundtrack largely features the classic tunes of the “Belfast Cowboy” Van Morrison, while Dornan sings a memorable rendition of

Review “Belfast” Rated PG-13 98 minutes

HHH (out of four) “Everlasting Love.”

Every piece of “Belfast,” from the songs, to the places, to the movies and toys, are strands of Branagh’s memory, indeed his DNA, laid out for the viewer not just to inspect but to share.

It’s the faces, etched in black and white portraiture, of the people that endure: the pearls of wisdom from Pop, the gently stern loving Granny (an excellent, as always, Judi Dench), the yearning for more expressed by Ma and Pa. Branagh, as Buddy, bares his soul in “Belfast,” which richly rewards if you’re willing to take this trip down memory lane.

Tony Hale embraces villain role in ‘Clifford the Big Red Dog’ Tribune Content Agency A big dog in the Big Apple is the perfect formula to get tails wagging, “Clifford” star Tony Hale believes.

The actor portrays the central villain in a new, live-action “Clifford the Big Red Dog” – and appreciates how the movie encourages audiences to embrace those who are different.

“It’s a very common message, but done in a creative way that might hit a different neuropath in a kid’s brain or an adult brain and just kind of click, whereas something else wouldn’t,” Hale told the Daily News.

“For kids to see a scene where (Clifford’s owner) Emily in the movie is bullied at school for being different, and then she has a connection with a dog that’s seen as different . . . and wanting to root for them, and be accepted, and to be empowered to walk their own journey, I mean, I want my kid to see this.

That’s a goal that we can all hope to have one day.”

Adapted from the popular Scholastic book series that began in 1963, the new film introduces Clifford as a tiny lost puppy who forms a bond with a misunderstood New York City girl named Emily Elizabeth.

Emily’s love is what fuels Clifford’s growth, and he suddenly becomes 10 feet tall.

Hale’s character in the movie – out Wednesday in theaters and on Paramount+ – is tech titan Zack Tieran, whose company LyfeGrow experiments on animals in hopes of making them bigger and increasing the global food supply.

“It’s kind of seen as an environmental company, but what actually he wants to do is manipulate nature for a profit, and it’s not working out,” Hale explained.

“He’s invested all this money, and his employees are doing three-headed goats and all this kind of stuff, so he’s freaking out. He sees Clifford, and he’s like, ‘If I can get that magic, whatever Clifford has, then I can really just

KC Bailey/ Paramount Pictures/TNS

Tony Hale in “Clifford.” have everything.’ So he just tries to take Clifford down and exploit him.”

Hale enjoyed creating the “spectacle” of an enormous dog unintentionally wreaking havoc in the crowded streets of Manhattan.

Production took place in the city and Clifford was later computer-animated into scenes. when “Sometimes you’re doing special effects, there will just be a dot, and it’s like, ‘OK, so this dot is like a massive monster coming towards you.’ And you’re just kind of like, OK,” Hale said.

“But the great gift that they gave to us was they had these really massive red puppets with puppeteers on the streets of New York when we were shooting, so it allowed us (to see) the scale of Clifford when we were talking, or seeing it, or being alarmed by it. That kind of helps the big picture.”

Hale rose to fame portraying Buster Bluth on the comedy series “Arrested Development,” and won two supporting actor Emmys for his performance as Gary Walsh on “Veep.”

He enjoyed showing another side with “Clifford.”

“I get the chance to play a bad guy. I typically am known for playing defeated and emasculated really well, so it’s nice to play something different,” Hale said with a laugh.

“Clifford” marks Hale’s latest familyfocused project, with others including voicing Forky in “Toy Story 4″ and starring as twin brothers in Disney’s “The Mysterious Benedict Society.”

Deion Sanders squarely in mix for TCU head coaching job

Maddie Meyer/Getty Images/TNS

Former NFL great Deion Sanders is getting serious consideration in becoming the new head football coach at Texas Christian University. board of trustees members LaDainian Tomlinson, Eddie Clark and Hunter Enis.

Tomlinson and Sanders have a history together as both are Pro Football Hall of Famers who worked as analysts on the NFL Network. Both reside in the DFW area, too, appearing together at football camps and other functions.

Sanders, 54, is in his second season at Jackson State, which sits at 8-1 and atop the SWAC standings going into its game at Southern

on Saturday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Sanders has missed the past three games with an undisclosed health issue but the work he’s done in bringing national attention and highly ranked players to Jackson State has not gone unnoticed.

That’s why he’s being viewed as a candidate for jobs such as TCU. Sanders quickly rebuilt Jackson State in a short time period and signed the highest-rated recruiting class in FCS and HBCU history in 2021.

49ers: Rookie and roster problems From Page B1 invested three first-round picks in Lance, and the fruits of the move weren’t going to bloom until well beyond 2021.

What that left was an awkward needle to thread: contend with a quarterback, Jimmy Garoppolo, you’re trying to replace. It’s a strategy that has rarely worked in the NFL. Shanahan is finding out why firsthand.

It’s been argued here and elsewhere the quarterback situation created a season-long contradiction. But that’s not what this column is about. It’s about Shanahan’s mishandling of the rest of the roster.

To be sure, general manager John Lynch technically controls the offseason 90-man roster while Shanahan determines the 53-man roster heading into the

season. But let’s be clear.

Shanahan is Lynch’s boss.

He’s the one who hired Lynch to be his GM, so Shanahan is ultimately responsible for all the personnel decisions. He’s the most important person in the building on the football side.

Which is where this season has gone wrong.

It’s with the roster, not necessarily the X’s and O’s. The long-held belief that coaches shouldn’t have final say on personnel is shining through for Shanahan in his fifth season at the helm.

49ers draft picks Let’s examine the draft and the picks made after the team traded up for Lance.

This 2021 draft class was an important one.

The 49ers recently gave out top-of-the-market contracts to George

Weather

Kittle, Trent Williams and Fred Warner, meaning they were going to need to find players on cheap deals to contribute, particularly with the pandemic causing the salary cap to drop substantially, all while Garoppolo is still making $26.4 million.

But the picks made in rounds 2 and 3 have given the team nothing to this point. Those were the rounds where the team previously found gems like Deebo Samuel and Warner (while drafting misses like Jalen Hurd and Donte Pettis, as well).

Guard Aaron Banks, tapped in the second round, hasn’t played a snap this season. Thirdround pick Ambry Thomas, the cornerback from Michigan, has appeared in three games but hasn’t gotten a defensive snap since the season opener.

Dec. 3

Running back Trey Sermon, a third-round pick from Ohio State, whom the team traded a pair of fourth-round picks to select, was inactive on Sunday in favor of Jeff Wilson Jr., who had no training camp and just three practices before Sunday’s game after tearing a meniscus in May. Sermon was beaten out by sixth-round pick Elijah Mitchell, who has three 100-yard games this season. That seems justifiable. What’s less justifiable is the idea that Wilson is a better option than Sermon after just three light practices and no training camp.

Wilson didn’t play Sunday, for whatever that’s worth. But his elevation over Sermon doesn’t tell the world Shanahan has all that much confidence in Sermon.

JC Women’s Vollyball

ROCKVILLE — The Solano College women’s volleyball team beat Mendocino on Monday night 25-8, 25-15, 25-18 in a makeup of a previously postponed match in October.

Sammy Brown had 19 kills and eight digs; Mylie Moli added seven kills and two blocks; Dani Rydjord served 20-for-20 with four aces; Bryanna Lott added six kills; Gina Garlick chipped in four kills on zero errors; Kailyn Kaiser served 13-for-13 with four aces and added eight digs; and, Jeryn Baldonado led with 25 assist and served 10-for-10 with two aces.

“The first set was very solid,” Solano head

coach Darla Williams said in an email. “We lost a little momentum in the second and third sets but did enough to get the job done.

“Right now we are focused on finishing undefeated in conference and we have two games left to stay on top,” Williams wrote.

Solano will host Los Medanos on Wednesday night for Sophomore Night. The match will start at 6 p.m.

Solano is 12-0 in the Bay Valley Conference and 19-11 overall.

Correction In a previous Daily Republic story about the Rodriguez girls golf team, Nikki Chindavong was not listed among those who had previously been to the NorCal tournament. She went as a freshman.

The Daily Republic regrets the error.

Curry: 50 points From Page B1 accomplish it.

“It doesn’t get old, for sure,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said of watching Curry go off once again. “He was amazing.

I want to say I’ve never seen anything like it but I’ve been watching it for seven years, so I have seen something like it and still it’s just incredible to watch.”

It did get a bit old for Young and the Hawks, who were left seemingly helpless to stop the Curry barrage.

“The fact that Steph got that many open looks

is crazy,” Young said.

“He’s the best shooter of all time.”

It’s also sometimes easy to lose track of Curry’s accomplishments, so here are some more reminders of how Monday’s showing added to them: n It was Curry’s 10th career 50-point game, with the Warriors going 8-2 in those games. n His season-high nine 3-pointers marked his 35th career game of nine-plus 3-pointers. No other NBA player has more than nine.

And the rest becomes (more) history.

Solano net win over Mendocino

Tribune Content Agency Deion Sanders has put himself squarely in the mix to become TCU’s next coach, a source close to the university’s selection committee told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on Tuesday.

Sanders had his first interview with TCU officials on Monday, sources said, and impressed.

One source went as far as saying Sanders is expected to make the cut for the second round of interviews.

“I’m not saying he is going to get the job, not saying he’s the leading candidate at this point,” the source said, “but he is in the mix. He was impressive.”

Along with Sanders, other candidates who have emerged in recent days include Iowa State’s Matt Campbell, Louisiana’s Billy Napier, SMU’s Sonny Dykes and Clemson offensive coordinator Tony Elliott.

TCU cast a wide net since parting ways with longtime coach Gary Patterson on Oct. 31. Others who were on the initial list included Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore and UTSA’s Jeff Traylor, both of whom are no longer considered candidates.

TCU’s selection committee consists of athletic director Jeremiah Donati and deputy athletics director Mike Sinquefield as well as
