SUISUN CITY — America’s military veterans were honored Thursday afternoon during a ceremony at the waterfront, organized by Councilwoman Wanda Williams.

“We made sure the sun was shining and the wind was gently blowing,” Suisun City Mayor Lori Wilson told the crowd.

It’s OK to enjoy the day, she said, as long we remember the significance of the many Americans who have served in the military.

The odds were some of those attending had fought for the nation’s freedom. Wilson also offered praise for military families.

Nate Stonestreet, the pastor of First Christian Church, offered a prayer thanking veterans for their service and asking for healing for those who have been affected physically and psychologically by their service.

Rep. John Garamendi asked all veterans to raise their hands and noted a Battle of the Bulge veteran was part of See Suisun, Page A10

VACAVILLE — A sizable crowd gathered Thursday under the sun-dappled trees at the Creekwalk Plaza in Downtown Vacaville for this year’s Veterans Day celebration and ceremony.

Tots, seniors and everyone in-between showed up to honor those who have served our country.

The ceremony was led by U.S. Marine Corps veteran Ed Rapisarda, who invited everyone to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance and the national anthem, sung

by Vacaville resident and musician Taryn Cross.

Vietnam War veteran Harry Beck was there with his two grandsons. Beck served “in country” from 1966 to 1972, and like so many others, is still coming to grips with that war and its affect on him. Asked if he See Plaza, Page A8

FAIRFIELD — Community members welcomed the return of the annual Veterans Day Parade – after a year’s hiatus because of the Covid-19 pandemic – by lining the streets downtown Thursday.

Ted Davidson came out with the family for the parade. His wife Barbara, daughter Wendy Hamilton and Ted Davidson Jr. have been attending the parade for six years and were disappointed last year’s parade was canceled.

“We have come to the parade every year,” Ted Davidson said. “They used to have a parade all the time where we used to live over in Lake County. It is good to see it again.”

“Having a parade really makes this feel like home,” Barbara Davidson said. “But this is also about pride in our military.”

But the parade itself drew solid participation.

“We have 50 entrants for the parade this year from clubs to veterans organizations,” she said.

The parade went from Kentucky Street, up to Great Jones Street and then along Texas Street before stopping at the old City Hall building.

Starbucks provided free coffee

An hour-long concert by the Alive Music Orchestra started at 10 a.m.

“It is wonderful to be back normal and able to celebrate again,” said veteran Edna Barnes, a past commander of Reams Post 182. “We have a long ways to go but we are getting there.”

Harbor has been bombed by Japanese aircraft.” Fear and anxiety ran rampant locally.

There were reports of open attacks on Japanese citizens living in Vallejo and Vacaville.

Shots were fired into the Buddhist temple in Vacaville as well.

Many were fearful that the Japanese military was on its way to attack West Coast communities. Air raid sirens were placed throughout the city.

People were placed on top of water towers throughout California coastal cities, including Fairfield, to serve as lookouts for approaching Japanese aircraft.

The order for all people of Japanese ancestry, U.S. citizen or not, to vacate the western states and be placed in internment, or concentration, camps came the next year. The internment deadline for departure from Fairfield was noon Sunday, May 3, 1942.

Among the first group leaving Fairfield were 30 students from Armijo High School, eight from Crystal and two from Fairfield Elementary.

The Solano Republican newspaper ran an ad asking farmers to take over the land and farms vacated by the Japanese. All farmers had to do was apply for the land at the United States Defense Authority War Boards located in the Solano County Title Insurance building in Fairfield. Many of them were ready to move on to the land even before the Japanese owners left.

The shameful local land grabs were overshadowed by a different kind of land grab which was to reshape Fairfield forever. The U.S. government purchased more than 1,600 acres at a cost of $50 per acre in order to make a West Coast military base. Good paying construction jobs exploded as runways, taxiways, hard standing roadways and

support facilities all needed to be developed for the base. It was the first real economic boom for the city of Fairfield.

Having the airfield in Fairfield was ideal as it was isolated at that time from population centers and yet only 50 miles from the coast. The city was nearly fog-free and blessed by prevailing westerlies that pilots and navigators truly appreciated. On May 7, 1943, the new airfield was named the Fairfield-Suisun Army Air Base.

The first Black soldiers arrived at the base Feb. 19, 1944. This group was the first Negro detachment in the Pacific wing of the Air Transport Command. All of the Black troops’ sections had white officers as commanders. The Black troops were mainly used as cooks, barbers and clerks.

They were the first substantial number of Black Americans to live in the Fairfield-Suisun area.

James Bates asked and answered a probing question: Why did Black troops fight for this country in segregated units? They were welcome only in the Army and not at all in the Marine Corps. In spite of these obstacles, for many Blacks it was a special war. They saw German dictator Adolf Hitler and Japanese Prime Minister Hideki Tojo as racists. The Blacks were fighting racism in America and they, as well as the American Jews, volunteered to fire as many bullets into racism as possible in the hope that with the defeat of the Axis Powers that the ugliness of racism would be ended throughout the world.

The large number of young males stationed at the base during the war had both a social and economic impact on the Fairfield community. A United Service Organization club opened on Texas Street near where the modern-day downtown fountains are. Men from

the base gathered to dance with local hostesses, play games, read books, play musical instruments and make new friends. Others went to bars, pool halls and gambling dens.

Prostitution was available in most Solano County cities, including Fairfield, and in 1944 the base hospital treated nearly 40 soldiers for venereal diseases.

After the defeat of Germany and then Japan, the interned Japanese were allowed to return home. However, social and political bodies from the Fairfield Lions Club to the Fairfield City Council passed resolutions opposing their return. They did so despite the incredible World War II fighting record of the 442nd Infantry Regiment, which was composed almost entirely of second-generation American soldiers of Japanese ancestry.

After the war, the small town of Fairfield had people living there from all over the world and of all races and nationalities. There were imported professional people such as doctors, engineers, scientists and lawyers who came to support the war effort and ended up living in the Fairfield area as citizens. Also there were skilled and unskilled workers who did the same.

More importantly, by late 1945, it was obvious that the military-based wartime economy was to continue after the end of hostilities. The Fairfield-Suisun Army Air Base, renamed Travis Air Force Base in 1951, became a permanent installation.

Today it is the largest employer not just in Fairfield, but in all of Solano County.

The Salvation Army invites community to ‘let light shine’ K aty St. Clair

katy@dailyrepublic.com

FAIRFIELD — It’s that time of year again, or should we say, “’Tis the season,” to “Let Your Light Shine” and support The Salvation Army by tossing your donations into those signature red kettles.

The Solano chapter of the charity organization launched its seasonal fundraiser Wednesday at the Jelly Belly factory with its 11th Annual Very Cherry Red Kettle Kickoff.

Emcee Dave McCallum from KUIC got the crowd going with his first joke about how the event was originally going to be called “What A Crock!” The jovial audience applauded him, and Jelly Belly Vice President of Retail Operations John Jamison assured everyone that they were really never intending to call it that . . . maybe.

The Kettle Kickoff is a chance for the community to make donations and for The Salvation Army to recognize its staff and volunteers.

Tables were set up with Christmas decorations, peppermint candies and tiny pocket lights to take home as souvenirs, reminding everyone to “shine their light” and make a difference in Solano County.

A number of designated “VIPs” were in attendance, such as members of the Fairfield-Suisun School District, including Superintendent Kris Kory.

Fairfield Councilman Chuck Timm was there, along with Vallejo City Council candidate Tara Beasley-Stansberry.

Suisun City Mayor Lori Wilson took the stage to deliver what were described as “words of hope.” Wilson told the biblical story of

the “loaves and fishes” to show how a simple impetus to help a few can multiply.

“Doing the most good,” she said, “that really is a challenge; it is really what we are called to do.” mayor said, The though people might think that their gift is not big enough, that gifts of any size are still “powerful” because they show how people care for the community, its people, little children who need support and those struggling with addiction – all populations served by The Salvation Army.

“Give what you have, and watch it multiply,” she said.

And give people did.

Bells were placed on each table, and around the room they were rung and donation amounts were shouted out: $50 from Judi Honeychurch of the school board, $500 from Dancing For All Cures, $250 from BeasleyStansberry, and a dollar for each year of its incorporation from Suisun City – $153.

At the end of the event, The Salvation Army recognized organizations and businesses with its Community Partner Awards. Courage Foods, the Fairfield-Suisun School District and Kaiser Permanente each received the acknowledgment. Fleet Feet owner Carol Gilpin was honored for her work organizing the yearly Turkey Trot. Employee of the Year honors went to Cara Fair, director of social services.

The Salvation Army’s red kettles will be out in full force this season.

Just look for the Santa hat and listen for the ding-dong of the bell.

All donations to local kettles go directly to services right here in Solano County.

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — As many as 200 children ages 5 to 11 received Covid-19 vaccine shots Wednesday during the Solano County mass vaccination clinic at the fairgrounds in Vallejo.

The total number of youngsters in that age group who have been vaccinated is at 956, the Solano County Public Health Division reported.

The county agency reported 1,200 additional individuals signed up for vaccine shots or boosters at the mass clinic as well.

“So we are very excited about that,” Jayleen Richards, the Public Health administrator, said in a phone interview.

The county reported 305,016 residents 12 or older have received at least one vaccine shot – 81% of that population – while 265,918 (70%) have been fully vaccinated.

That does not include individuals in the 5 to 11 age group. The county plans to add that category to its online reporting in the coming weeks, Richards said.

The number of booster shots administered, Richards said, is 38,983.

That statistic is now featured on the county’s Covid-19 dashboard.

Solano County added 69 new coronavirus cases since Monday’s update, taking the total to 46,151.

There were no new Covid-related deaths reported, holding that total at 315, while the number of residents hospitalized with the disease was at 32 Wednesday, down from 34 Monday.

The number of patients in intensive care units also dipped, from 15 to 14, the county reported.

The 10-day daily case average was at 31.6, while the seven-day positivity

testing rate was at 4.5%.

Monday’s reporting had those figures at 33.2 and 5.6%, respectively.

Fairfield, with 12,380 cases, and Vacaville, with 12,145, each added 17 cases, while Vallejo added 24 to take its total to 13,494, the county reported.

Suisun City (3,259) added three cases; Benicia (1,554) added four cases; Rio Vista (619) added three cases; and there was one new case in the unincorporated area of the county, which is up to 141 cases. There were no new reports for Dixon (2,559), the county said.

Vaca sets aside $125K in bonuses to hire, keep new police officers K aty St. Clair

katy@dailyrepublic.com

VACAVILLE — City Council members as part of a marathon session Tuesday agreed to a sixfigures plan to hire new police officers and to retain those officers once they join the ranks of the Police Department.

The issue of new police officer attraction and retention was presented to the council by Employee Relations Manager Sandy Hess, who said there will be a total of 31 vacancies in the department by the end of the year.

Recent examples include the retirement Nov. 3 of Detective Drew Dalton after a 25-year career; and the retirement Oct. 27 of Detective Jeff Datzman after 28 years of service.

Hess pointed to several factors that inhibit recruitment and retention, including competition from other cities, a nationwide decrease in interest in going into law enforcement, pension reform, and a large number of officers aging out and reaching retirement.

Hess said the department has undertaken an outreach campaign by creating a dedicated hiring website, hiring recruiters, showing up at college and career events, and visiting police academies throughout the state.

Lt. Chris Polen said the ideal candidate would have two to five years of law enforcement experience, be looking for a “career” rather than a “job,” have integrity and the ability to overcome adversity, and be excited

Peabody, Alamo to see $2.8M in traffic safety projects K aty St. Clair

katy@dailyrepublic.com

VACAVILLE — The City Council gave the green light Tuesday for $2.8 million in traffic safety projects along a pair of the city’s major roadways.

The city was presented with a grant of $2.8 million to improve safety at 21 different about creating a relationship with the community.

Councilman Greg Ritchie said 80% of the Police Department’s officers live within Vacaville, which is something he said the department values.

Hess outlined the Police Department’s incentive plan for attracting “lateral”

intersections and wants to use the money to upgrade equipment that carries out “advanced vehicle detection,” such as sensing traffic flow and adjusting signals accordingly.

The corridors in question are along Peabody Road and Alamo Drive.

Councilman Jason Roberts asked why hires – officers with comparable experience at other agencies – and hires out of the police academy.

Candidates would receive $20,000 spread over four installments: $5,000 at hire, $5,000 at completion of the probationary period, $5,000 after two years of service and $5,000 after

those particular routes were selected and was told that these had the “highest benefitcost ratio” for Vacaville, according to a consultant hired by the city.

City staff wanted the council to OK purchasing the traffic control products made by Econolite. The request was approved unanimously. the third year.

A resident who called in and identified herself only by her first name said she understood that the department needs to hire more officers, but she questioned the amounts offered.

As a young teenager, her family moved to California. Donna eventually settled in Fairfield along with her immediate family.

Donna worked in the business office of Kaiser Permanente in Fairfield for more than 25 years.

All contracts had expired Oct. 31.

The contracts include a three-year term beginning Nov. 1 and continuing until Oct. 31, 2024. Cost of living adjustments would include 4% raises by Nov. 1; 3% increases by Nov. 1, 2022; and 2% more by Nov. 1, 2023.

The city will also recognize Juneteenth as a holiday for employees, including department heads, the city attorney and the city manager.

The police officer’s union will see an increase in dispatcher pay, an addition of “on call” pay, tuition reimbursement increases, and equity adjustments of 1% every year. The police management staff will see on-call pay for sergeants at $5,720 per year and an accelerated time requirement to qualify for the sergeant leadership program.

Bilingual pay for city staff will increase from $1,200 to $1,800 per year and equity amounts will range from 0.65% to 9.46% over the three years.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Becoming aware of the different ways another person expresses want and need is a process of discovery as fascinating, frustrating and exciting as any exotic excursion.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Your leadership style is very different from that of the previous person, and you can expect some resistance. This is a test. Remain strong in your methods. They’ll adjust soon enough.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

“Life is 10% what you make it and 90% how you take it,” said composer Irving Berlin. This is because much of what’s happening is out of your control, but your responses will be brilliant.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Regret has its orientation in the untouchable past. You can safely assume you’ve already learned from what happened and leave it back there. Commit to forward motion.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You can’t always stop unhelpful thoughts from coming up, but you can make light of them, thus reducing their psychic weight and the drag they would surely cause on your day, were you to pay them more attention.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You understand human nature, but you don’t always like it.

Dear Annie: This is in response to the 52-year-old “Overwhelmed and Unsure” who is the caregiver for her brother. I would recommend that she help her brother apply for Section 8 federally subsidized housing. He can have his own apartment, and his rent will be based on his income.

He can get public assistance (food stamps). My brother-inlaw is pretty much in the same position (on Social Security Disability Insurance, recovering alcoholic, can’t hold down a job) and he lives independently in a very nice Section 8 apartment in NYC and receives Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits. We are his payee for his Social Security Disability Insurance and ensure his rent and utility bills are paid on time.

Someone from the County Department of Social Services should be able to assist her with applying for these benefits. — Similar Situation Dear Similar Situation: Thank you for this informed response. I hope other readers will find it useful when trying to find the right care for loved ones.

Today’s birthday The next 12 months are a slow-building adventure. May brings the means to follow through on a long-held wish.

You’ll reunite and reconnect with past people and goals.

The new version of the relationship or pursuit will be strangely sturdier. You’ve gained skill since the last time.

Spring romance is in store.

Cancer and Libra adore you.

make you cynical. You’ll find plenty of exceptions.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Playgrounds are supposed to be fun, but the freedom of recess can be deceivingly difficult to manage. Left to their own devices, children often find it harder to get along. Adults are the same. Be wary of the leisure hours.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Hopefully, your attitude about money will help your dreams, not hurt them. If there’s a belief holding you back, you’ll be made aware of it. Be sure to accept money for the work you do, especially creative work.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). The amateurs will critique an experience while it is happening, loving how smart it makes them feel. The pros stay

open and absorb it, realizing that bias and judgement prevent insight and learning.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). No need to pretend for the sake of others. Just experience things naturally, plus manners. Politeness should be enough. If they need you to put on a big show, they are the ones being rude.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). Think twice before you offer discounts, as doing so could adversely affect an experience. Pleasure is greatest when earned. The higher the price of the ticket, the more people enjoy the event.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Interrupters often come off unfavorably, as needing to negate the flow of life already unfolding reveals arrogance, immaturity and possibly ineptitude. As a habit, it’s unattractive, but as a tactic, it’s sometimes necessary.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Pisces and Scorpio are water sign sweethearts with a love deep as oceans. Like two seas meeting, they blend into oneness. This weekend, fighting for individual needs seems like a foreign behavior. These two instead will float together on their mutual feelings, no need for navigation, as their love has its own heavenly destination.

East missed an inference in today’s deal, which allowed South to effect a meretricious line of play.

South’s jump to three spades over his partner’s transfer bid showed a (near) maximum with four trumps and a doubleton.

Now South led his last club and, when West produced the 10, discarded a diamond from the dummy. West, with nothing but diamonds left, had to give declarer a trick with his king. South took five spades, one heart, one diamond, two clubs and the heart ruff in hand.

Paul Rudd named People’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2021 Tribune Content Agency Paul Rudd seems to have been a little “Clueless” about just how attractive he really is.

The “Ant-Man” star was named People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2021, an honor he hopes will finally get him invited to “those sexy dinners with Clooney and Pitt and B Jordan.”

“I figure I’ll be on a lot more yachts. I’m excited to expand my yachting life,” the 52-year-old New Jersey native told the magazine.

“And I’ll probably try to get better at brooding in really soft light. I like to ponder. I think this is going to help me become more inward and mysterious. And I’m looking forward to that.”

Before he was allowed

to capture the title, Rudd was put through a series of tests on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” Tuesday night, from a Westminster Dog Show-style competition to trial photo shoots as a construction worker and a monk.

“There’s nothing sexier than humility . . . and you passed!” Colbert announced. “Paul, you’re the sexiest man alive.”

A seemingly shocked Rudd accepted the honor.

“I’m going to lean into it hard. I’m going to own this,” Rudd told People. “I’m not going to try to be like ‘Oh, I’m so modest.’ I’m getting business cards made.

But all of my friends will destroy me and I expect them to. And that’s why they’re my friends.”

In brief

State urges Covid booster shots for all adults SAN JOSE — California officials are urging Covid-19 vaccine providers to give booster shots to pretty much any adult who wants one.

It’s a messaging shift toward a looser interpretation of federal guidance, which appears to recommend boosters only for those 65 and older, in poor health or who live or work in a high-risk setting. Alarmed by the latest case rates, state health officials don’t want to be restrictive.

“Do not turn a patient away who is requesting a booster” who’s at least 18 years old and last had the Pfizer or Moderna shot six months ago or the Johnson & Johnson shot 2 months ago, California Public Health Director Dr. Tomás J. Aragón said in a memo this week to local health jurisdictions and providers.

The memo with the subject line “Booster Messaging,” Aragón said, “clarifies the state’s expectations for administering Covid-19 vaccine boosters and patient eligibility,” and says providers should “allow patients to self-determine their risk of exposure.” ­— Tribune Content Agency

From Page One “The experiences he had then he did not share with his family until many years later when he was nearing the end of his life,” Berkley said.

Born on the Russian-Poland border area, Levine and the family escaped to New York. He was 17.

Many of Berkley’s family members on her mother’s side, also Jewish, were not as fortunate and were sent from Greece to the Nazi death camps.

“The thing he remembered the most was when his ship docked at Sausalito,” Berkley said, recalling how her father thought the town that sits across the Golden Gate Strait from San Francisco was paradise.

When Levine turned 85, Berkley and other members of the family took him back to California. The journey included a search for the hospital where he was treated for his war injuries.

A stop at Treasure Island triggered no memories, nor did a second or third stop. Then Berkley decided to take her father to see where she works, Touro University California, located on the former U.S. Navy shipyard on Mare Island. She also oversees the university in Nevada.

Levine lit up as they passed the old hospital.

“That’s it. That’s where I was. That’s where I was taken care of,” Berkley said, repeating her father’s excited words.

Vacaville Mayor Ron Rowlette had a scheduling mixup so arrived late to the event, but he owned up to it and apologized profusely and said how “disappointed” he was in himself.

“It was challenging at times being married but really a single mother doing it alone,” Tiffany Burmeister said. “But looking back, I would not change a thing, because the military gave us a lot and we are where we are today because of his service.”

Burmeister’s career has taken him through many experiences that he never expected in his life. He attended college thinking he would be an officer but that didn’t work out. He joined the Air Force and became a communications specialist.

“The support from this community is huge,” said Roberts, who thanked everyone in Vacaville who works to assist veterans and active duty service members.

The Veterans Day message was presented

by Marine Corps veteran Michael Little, who spoke about “losing himself” a bit after he returned from the war and how joining the Veterans of Foreign Wars and eventually becoming commander there restored his sanity.

“I found a brotherhood I had missed,” he said.

For veteran Beck, coming to grips with some memories and honoring his past have been an important part of his journey.

“I’m thinking of going back,” he said, referring to the country of Vietnam.

It was clear it is something he had been debating for a long time and had perhaps finally come to a decision about.

“It’s beautiful there. It really is,” he said.

He thought he would serve for 20 years in the Air Force, but instead, he got out after six years of service.

“I missed it, so then in 2005 I came back and rejoined the National Guard as a reservist,” he said.

The young couple found that financially raising a family might be better on a reservist’s salary.

“Today is a day for all of us to join together to honor those men and women who served and to thank them,” he said.

The ceremony concluded with a prayer and taps along with the retirement of the flag. Visitors filed out of the theater and took up positions along the street to enjoy the parade.

Kaiser From Page A5 according to a press release announcing the information picketing.

Kaiser Permanente released a statement in response to the allegations from nurses in which the organization affirmed that nurses have always and will continue to play “a critically important and highly valued role in the care team.” The statement said there are no plans to limit the role of nurses in hospitals or any acute care-at-home programs.

“Nurses will continue to work in brick-and-mortar hospitals and medical office buildings, caring for patients and responding to their needs,” according to the statement.

The new program is “rooted in quality and safety” and “provides acute-level care where people live and where they overwhelmingly prefer to receive care when given the option,” according to the statement. The program is not focused on cost-savings but instead “empowers technologyenabled, multidisciplinary care teams, which include nurses, to provide the right care at the right time and in the right location to best meet patients’ needs,” according to the company statement.

Patients enrolled in the program must meet “established clinical and safety criteria” and will have the choice to receive care in the hospital “if the home environment ultimately is not preferred or appropriate,” according to the company statement.

The California Nurses Association announced Thursday that Kaiser Permanente nurses across the Bay Area and Sacramento regions will take part in a 24-hour “sympathy strike” from 7 a.m.

The contract between Kaiser Permanente and the stationary engineers union expired in mid-September.

Union members maintain various safety and mechanical systems at Kaiser Permanente facilities, as well as patient-related equipment and medical systems at those facilities.

Nurses will strike at both the Vacaville and Vallejo hospitals, according to the press release.

“You came home to a very unhappy America,” he said. “You were not recognized.”

Now they are every March 29. The Vietnam War Veterans Recognition Act, signed into law in 2017, designates March 29 of each year as National Vietnam War Veterans Day. “You are very important in a chapter of history,” American Garamendi said. “We understand the sacrifice you made.”

Monte Hoover served as emcee for the event.

He has been the Voice of Fairfield events since 2009.

“We have four judges this year,” he said. “They had a flyover with a C-17 before the parade.”

This year’s grand marshal was Master Sgt. Daniel A. Crittenden, who is retired from the U.S. Air Force.

Very quietly – and on the QT – were representatives from the Rose Parade in Pasadena.

5 Mustangs sign national letters of intent Matt Miller mmiller@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Rodriguez High School celebrated five of its studentathletes Wednesday afternoon in a ceremony on campus as they signed their national letters of intent.

Camryn Washington will be headed to Cal State East Bay in Hayward to join the women’s basketball program.

Kate Tobola and Julianna Roxas will play softball at Dominican University of California in San Rafael; Desirae

Bally will do the same at Adams State in Alamosa, Colorado; and Janaiya Terrones is headed to San Diego Christian College to join the Hawks softball program.

“Those are my girls. I love them,” softball head coach and athletic director Tracy Lopez said of her softball players. “I can’t say enough good things about them.

They’re all good girls. I can’t wait for our full season this year and I can’t wait to see what they do in their futures.”

Rodriguez girls basketball coach Marcell Palmer told

Washington, “I’m so proud of you. I’ve seen the hard work that you have put in.”

Terrones is an outfielder with the Mustangs softball team. She said she felt San Diego Christian was just the right fit.

“It’s a small school and I do better learning in a smaller environment,” Terrones said.

“They study the Bible as well, and I felt good when I talked to them.”

Bally, a corner infielder who has seen time at first base and third, is headed to Colorado and Adams State.

“I love the campus. It has very nice scenery,” Bally said.

“The coach made me feel like family.”

Tobola and Roxas will head to Dominican together.

Tobola has played in the middle infield for Rodriguez and Roxas is an outfielder and first baseman.

“The coach is the main reason, but they also have a really good medical program and the campus is really nice,” Tobola said.

“It’s my dream school,” See Signings, Page B10

Quarterfinal playoff capsules No. 2 Vanden (7-3) vs.

No. 7 Dixon (7-3) What: Quarterfinals, Sac-Joaquin Section Division IV playoffs When: 7 p.m. Friday Where: Vanden High’s George A. Gammon Field Series: Vanden leads 31-11 Last meeting: 2014, Vanden won 44-0 Last week: Vanden had a bye; Dixon defeated Ponderosa, 29-20 Of note: In the 1990s this would’ve been a standing room only affair at a neutral site because they were both Superior California Athletic League powers at the time and it would’ve been the title game. With 42 previous meetings, Vanden has played Dixon more than any other team and has more wins over the Rams than anyone else. Benicia is next with 30 meetings with the Vikings holding a 24-6 edge in that series. . . . Dixon is led by junior quarterback Jett Harris, who has completed 114-of-201 passes

for 1,789 yards and 20 touchdowns. His top target is senior Mark Bernard with 50 catches for 894 yards and 14 TDs. . . . Vanden has won the two most recent meetings by a combined 86-0 and the past six clashes since Dixon’s last win (14-13 in 2004) by a combined 193-37. All told, the Vikings have won 12 of the last 13 encounters. . . . Junior Tre Dimes had a big passing year for the Vikings, finishing the regular season 101-of-192 for 2,047 yards and 27 touchdowns. His top target was Michael Belk with 33 catches for 647 yards and nine TDs. . . .

Fairfield is the lone common opponent between the two teams, the Rams winning 37-0 on Sept.

24, the Vikings winning 48-0 on Oct. 8.

Prediction: Vanden 40, Dixon 21

No. 3 Vacaville (8-2) vs.

No. 6 Elk Grove (7-3) What: Quarterfinals, Sac-Joaquin Section Division II playoffs When: 7 p.m. Friday

Where: Zunino Stadium, Vacaville High Series: Elk Grove leads 6-5 Last meeting: 2019, Elk Grove won 52-29 in the first round of the playoffs Last week: Vacaville had a bye; Elk Grove defeated Gregori, 56-6 Of note: It’s hard to believe, but Vacaville and Elk Grove used to be in the Golden Empire League from 1961 to 1963. They then went 41 years without playing each other again and have met six times since that 2004 contest – five in the playoffs. The postseason meetings haven’t been kind to the Bulldogs, who have dropped four of the five, including their last two trips to the playoffs – 28-21 in 2018 and 52-29 in 2019 – both in the first round. . . . Vacaville senior quarterback Ryan Vaughan had a big year for the Bulldogs, completing 111-of-204 passes for 1,729 yards and 18 touchdowns. Senior back Darien Leon-Guerrero also shined with 133 carries for 1,023 yards and 11 touchdowns.

Leon-Guerrero is also a strong receiving threat.

The Sharks have generally been pleased with the performances they've received over the last several games from the players who were called up late last month on an emergency basis. though, Perhaps, it’s time to get back to normal.

The Sharks allowed two goals in the second period, including one

by Jansen Harkins with 44 seconds left, in a 4-1 loss to the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday at Canada Life Centre.

Cogliano Andrew scored his second goal of the season for a 1-0 Sharks lead in the first period. But the Jets responded with goals by Kyle Connor in the first period and Nate Schmidt and Harkins in the second as the Sharks lost in regulation time for the second time in their last six games.

Jets center PierreLuc Dubois added an empty-net goal with 33 seconds left in regulation time to round out the scoring.

Sharks goalie James Reimer made 30 saves as his record fell to

3-2-1 for the season.

Reimer entered with a Thursday .946 save percentage, second-best among 43 NHL goalies who had played in at least five games. His 1.60 goalsagainst average was tops among all goalies in that category.

The Sharks recalled five players from the Barracuda – forwards John Leonard and Nick Merkley, and defensemen Jaycob Megna, Nicolas Meloche, and Ryan Merkley – on Oct. 30 after seven Sharks players and coach Bob Boughner landed in the league’s Covid-19 protocol.

Megna and Meloche both had a plus/minus rating of -2 against the Jets. Nick Merkley had a goal and two assists in six games, Ryan Merkley had a goal in six games and Leonard went without a point in five games.

Erik Defensemen Karlsson, Jake Middleton, Radim Simek, and Marc-Edouard Vlasic, plus forwards Matt Nieto, Jonathan Dahlen, and Cogliano were on the initial list.

Wide receiver Beckham Jr. joins the Rams Tribune Content Agency LOS ANGELES — The Rams announced Thursday they have agreed to terms with wide receiver Odell Beckam Jr., adding another marquee player to a 7-2 team in boomor-bust mode.

Super Bowl LVI will be played in February at SoFi Stadium, and Rams owner Stan Kroenke and team executives are sparing no expense to make sure Kroenke is the owner representing the NFC in the weeks leading up to the Super Bowl on Feb. 13.

Last week, the Rams traded for eight-time Pro Bowl linebacker Von Miller, who could make his debut on Monday night against the San Francisco 49ers.

Beckham, 29, was the 12th player chosen in the 2014 NFL draft, one pick ahead of Rams

star defensive tackle Aaron Donald.

Earlier in the day, Sean McVay’s smile belied what was going on behind the scenes.

Asked Thursday if the Rams had reached out to the star receiver, McVay grinned.

“We’re just focused on the Niners right now,” McVay said during a news conference, “that’s kind of where my focus is.”

Later in the media session, when asked if general manager Les Snead was still possibly pursuing Beckham, McVay smiled again.

“Les is always doing work behind the scenes,” McVay said.

“Like I said, I’m focused on the Niners.”

Snead, never shy about making blockbuster moves, ultimately did it again.

Buster Posey homered on his first swing of 2021 and ended up putting together one of the finest offensive seasons of his career, earning the catcher his fifth Silver Slugger award on Thursday.

Posey, 34, announced his retirement last week, a mild surprise considering how productive he was at the plate this season after missing all of 2020. Posey led NL catchers with an .889 OPS (the second-highest of his career), home runs (18) as well as slugging percentage and WAR. Overall, Posey’s final season produced a slash line of .304/.390/.499.

Report: Kings assistant involved in altercation Tribune Content Agency New Orleans Pelicans executive David Griffin and Kings assistant coach Alvin Gentry reportedly had to be physically separated during an altercation following a game in New Orleans last month.

According to Bleacher Report, Griffin and Gentry were involved in a heated exchange following Sacramento’s 113-99 victory over the Pelicans on Oct. 29 at Smoothie King Center in New Orleans.

Gentry spent five years

as the Pelicans’ head coach before Griffin fired him in August 2020, reportedly telling people around the league he had given Gentry “all the answers to the test, and he still fails.”

Griffin hired Stan Van Gundy to replace Gentry, but Van Gundy was fired after just one season in New Orleans.

Griffin reportedly approached Gentry after the game against Sacramento to “offer a warm hello,” but Gentry “brushed off his initial efforts as inauthentic.

calmatters commentary

Newsom upbeat, but Californians are worried

T

he juxtaposition of two California events Tuesday could not have been more ironic.

Gov. Gavin Newsom, whose paucity of public appearances this month had been puzzling – and the subject of much social media speculation – emerged in Monterey, where he delivered a very upbeat, even bragging, appraisal of the state’s economy.

Newsom ticked off data points he said prove that “the California dream is still alive and well” and the state “continues to dominate in every category.”

“The future is still invented here,” he told California Forward’s annual economic summit. “I hope we can stop Dan Walters beating ourselves up,” he added. “We need to focus on what’s right.”

Simultaneously, the Public Policy Institute of California was releasing a new survey of Californians’ attitudes about the state’s – and their own – economic well-being that was anything but upbeat.

One finding: “Fewer than half expect good economic times in the next 12 months. Majorities across income groups are pessimistic about the economy.”

Another: “Most Californians say the availability of well-paying jobs is a problem in their part of the state, and 22% consider it a big problem.”

“Overwhelming majorities across age, education, gender and racial/ethnic groups view this as a problem,” the Public Policy Institute of California said. “Notably, 26% of Californians say they have seriously considered moving from their part of the state because of the lack of well-paying jobs. Among those who have considered moving, most would leave the state rather than go somewhere else in California.”

Overwhelmingly, survey respondents believe that the state’s yawning gap between haves and have-nots is getting wider. “Majorities across partisan groups and regions say that children growing up in California today will be worse off than their parents,” the Public Policy Institute of California reported.

Another revelation: “Twenty-five percent of Californians and 36% of lower-income residents worry every day or almost every day about housing costs. Lower-income residents also worry more than those at higher income levels about paying their bills, the amount of debt they have and saving enough for retirement.”

So is the surging and dominant economy that Newsom pictures the reality, or is the Public Policy Institute of California’s poll a more accurate snapshot of a society with deep-seated and perhaps even intractable socioeconomic inequities?

In a sense, it’s both.

The positive data points that Newsom ticked off so eagerly are not, unto themselves, inaccurate, but their beneficiaries primarily are those already in the state’s overclass. Its members escaped most of the negative effects of the pandemic-induced recession and have benefited greatly from steep increases in the stock market and other assets, such as real estate.

In contrast, those who were in the underclass when Covid-19 stuck bore the brunt of its economic impacts as more than 2 million jobs disappeared, and the socioeconomic gap has become wider as a result. The Public Policy Institute of California poll reflected not only the negative recent experiences of those on the lower rungs of the economic ladder, but an appreciation of their plight by most of those on the upper rungs.

Moreover, Newsom cherrypicked the data to bolster his claim of economic dominance. He omitted, for example, the fact that California’s unemployment rate of 7.5% is the nation’s highest, or that California’s poverty rate of 17.2% as calculated by the Census Bureau to include the cost of living is also the nation’s worst.

That high poverty rate reflects what the Public Policy Institute of California survey found, that high numbers of California residents worry constantly about the high cost of keeping roofs over their heads, paying their bills and debts.

One could legitimately say, therefore, when it comes to the economic distress being felt by millions of its residents, California is also dominant.

What protective elements should be in this vaccine for youth? Loving parental guidance, mentorship, strong values, self-control, discipline, thinking ability and human compassion.

This vaccine should be injected on a daily basis into the minds of our youth by their parents or loved ones.

Of course, we all realize how important the highway and road systems are to the local, state, regional and national economies – and there is a cost to poorly maintained highways and roads there, too – but let’s put a little humanity into the storyline: More than 24 million children ride buses traveling across those roads, and ambulances make 60 million trips on those roads. Add police and fire vehicles – well, the picture is clear.

What amazed me about the most recent report on Solano County road conditions is how most jurisdictions experienced declines in their road condition ratings over the two prior years despite voter-supported Senate Bill 1 road funds.

Not sure what the delay is in turning those dollars into road work, but clearly there must be a delay. And there, too, is an added cost. The engineers say that for every $1 not spent on road repair, it will cost $7 for the same repair in five years.

It makes me wonder, how long will it take to get the federal infrastructure funding down to the needed project sites?

Trillions, after all, add up fast.

Clearly, it will take even longer if the funds have to travel by truck through Vallejo.

Why comedy podcasts are taking off at Audible

Crossword

Los Angeles Times LOS ANGELES — Paul Lieberstein, a writer and actor for “The Office,” had a wacky idea for a story about a bored spaceship captain who goes on comedic tangents while traveling the galaxy. But Lieberstein didn’t think the concept would work in a conventional TV episode format.

So he decided to create a fictionalized podcast instead.

“Middlespace: The Rebels Attack, and Then the Other Side Attacks As Well” will debut next week on Audible, the audiobook and podcast company owned by Amazon.

“There’s an impatience in film and television now,” Lieberstein said. “There’s just a lot that has to happen and a lot of story needs to be told . . . I didn’t have a story to tell, I had some characters to just kind of play around with. [In] the podcast/Audible world – people are more willing to accept a different way to go.”

The series will be among six new scripted comedy podcasts that Audible will roll out in the coming months, as the Newark, New Jersey, company looks to expand its entertainment offerings and appeal to more consumers.

“Audible is where the audience is at and if the audience is craving comedy, we’re going to deliver what they need and we’re partnering with some of the most exciting people in the space,” said Zola Mashariki, head of Audible Studios.

Launched in 1995 as an audiobooks company, Audible has been expanding into other forms of storytelling in recent years.

After e-commerce giant Amazon bought the company for $300 million in 2008, Audible ventured into original scripted podcasts, launching its first scripted original comedy “Stinker Lets Loose!” in 2018; it already has 31 scripted comedy podcasts. Many are told through 20- to 30-minute episodes.

Scripted podcasts allow Audible to invest in stories that could be repurposed for other areas of Amazon, such as Amazon Prime Video. For example, “Evil Eye,” which began as a podcast on Audible in 2019, was later adapted into a horror movie that was released on Amazon Prime Video last year.

Like other entertainment companies, Amazon has been expanding its footprint in the podcast space. Last year, Amazon Music acquired West Hollywood-based Wondery.

By adding podcasts, Audible can appeal to talent and their potentially large social media followings.

Audible, the audiobook and podcast company owned by Amazon, will roll out six new scripted comedy podcasts in the coming months.

“They’ve got the install base of people who are already on a commute, they like the audio format,” said Ray Wang, a principal analyst at Palo Alto-based Constellation Research. “They want to expand on it.”

Audible says it has millions of listeners but did not disclose specific figures. Users can access the exclusive new podcasts through an Audible subscription, which starts at $7.95 a month.

Audible’s podcasts span many content categories, primarily comedy, romantic comedy, sci-fi, thriller, mystery and well-being, the company said. Past scripted comedy podcasts include the recently released “Hot White Heist” featuring an all-queer cast; and “Eat S— Kenny Daniels,” which was released last year and stars Alicia Silverstone.

The six new scripted comedy podcasts coming to Audible through April 2022 are “Middlespace”; “Christmas Delivery,” about a grumpy courier who goes on a Christmas Carol-esque journey; “Self Center,” featuring a 40-year-old woman whose weekend retreat goes awry; “Lem Can Help,” which centers on a man with a popular advice show portrayed by Fred Armisen; “Summer in Argyle,” created by “Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul” actor Bob Odenkirk and his son Nate Odenkirk about a town in Ohio that is shaken after an athlete dies; and “Blood Weed,” which deals with a young cannabis business entrepreneur voiced by “The Sixth Sense” actor Haley Joel Osment.

Audible is releasing most of these new podcasts through partnerships with New Yorkbased comedy production company Above Average or its parent company, Broadway Video Enterprises, founded by “Saturday Night Live” creator Lorne Michaels.

Conan O’Brien’s digital media company, Team Coco, worked with Audible on “Self Center.”

An Audible executive declined to disclose the budgets of is podcasts. A person familiar with the company said the budgets can be in the high six figures, depending on the cast.

“This was a great way to expand the pipeline of stories that we could get out there in the world,” said Britta von Schoeler, president of Broadway Video Enterprises. “I think the goal is ultimately doing these audio narrative series and using that as a proof of concept, so hopefully we can develop them into another format, whether it’s television or stage or film.”

Although their company is in a different part of the Amazon ecosystem, Audible executives say they have found ways to collaborate with Amazon Studios, which releases original series and films.

“Our main focus is always just creating great audio . . . but certainly, we think about how content can be expansive and how it can create worlds and so we are frequently working back and forth on different projects with either Amazon Studios or other groups,” said Rachel Ghiazza, Audible’s executive vice president and head of U.S. content.

In the past, comedy podcasts began in an interview format or as improv, putting funny people together in a room. Now, listeners are looking for high-quality productions with high-pedigree producers in unscripted or scripted comedy podcasts, said Adam Sachs, chief operating officer for Team Coco.

“There are so many podcasts that now the audiences expect more,” Sachs said. “We’re seeing that audiences are expecting more experimentation with format, more demand for more increased premium quality content.”

Many years ago (began the SLM), my brother, Nathaniel, was an avid bridge player. Also, he had his eye on Alita Hatt, a beautiful English girl and strong player. They partnered each other one evening in this club. They were opposing my partner and me when that deal arose.

After an exciting auction in which Nathaniel was more worried about missing a grand slam than going down in six spades, I led the diamond king.

Nathaniel won with dummy’s ace and drew one round of trumps, getting the bad news. He cashed the club queen before turning his attention to hearts.

But my partner ruffed the second round and returned his second diamond. Nathaniel couldn’t avoid the loss of another trick.

“How unlucky,” he wailed. “Why should East be short in hearts?”

“But you should have made it,” replied Alita.

Caitriona Balfe on role in ‘Belfast’, her Irish roots Tribune Content Agency The Troubles were unavoidable for anyone who came of age in Ireland or Northern Ireland from the 1960s through late the late ’90s.

Just ask Caitriona Balfe, one of the stars of “Belfast,” the new semi-autobiographical film from writer-director Kenneth Branagh that chronicles one family’s desperate efforts to maintain a semblance of normalcy at the height of the conflict. The film comes out in theaters Friday.

Balfe grew up in Ireland and would regularly cross through military checkpoints at the border to go on shopping excursions with her family in Northern Ireland, where violence was common between mostly Catholic nationalists and mostly Protestant unionists. Her father was a sergeant for Garda, Ireland’s national police service, and was stationed near the border.

She “viscerally remembers” the frequency of bombings during The Troubles, especially one in the Northern Irish town of Enniskillen in the late 1980s.

“Even though I wasn’t in it, it was definitely part of the fabric of my life and had an effect,” Balfe told the PostGazette. “You can’t grow up in those times in that region without it being an important presence in your life. . . . Wrapping your head around that as a kid, of why people are bombing places and killing people down the road, it shapes your understanding of life and of the world.”

Most folks who are familiar with Balfe’s acting know her from the Starz historical fantasy series “Outlander.” In “Belfast,” she plays Ma, the matriarch of a pacifist Protestant family in late ’60s Belfast. The story is told from the perspective of her son, Buddy (Jude Hill), whose family also includes his father (Jamie Dornan), brother (Lewis McAskie), grandmother (Judi Dench) and grandfather (Ciaran Hinds).

Balfe wanted to find a film she could work on in her native Ireland, and Branagh’s script for

“Belfast” sold her pretty quickly on the project.

“Quite often, when you get a script about the north, it has really only focused on the ideology or romanticizing the violence or in some way trying to justify the violence,” she said.

“This was the first time I had read a script that focused on the people and their heart, resilience and humor. Talk about dying to be able to play something!”

In the film, Balfe displays a wide range of emotions as the world around her seems to be falling apart, sometimes literally. The exuberance and exasperation she expresses in equal measure “are all things I understand,” and she drew from the tough love she received from her mother while crafting her performance.

One of the elements that makes “Belfast” so affecting is how authentic the family feels. Balfe said that early on in the production, Branagh had her, Dornan, Dench and Hinds sit in a room for three hours while he grilled them on how they and their parents would’ve reacted to certain things.

“I learnt so much about Judi, Jamie and Ciaran in a very personal way, and likewise they learned about me,” she said. “I don’t think you could’ve done anything better to unite and bond people. . . . It completely stripped away any of my fears or anxieties about not being good enough or not having enough experience. You just feel very connected to these people.”

As “Belfast” hits theaters this week, Balfe is hoping the “loss of innocence” and familial bonds it depicts resonate with audiences worldwide.

All Balfe’s hard work may pay off with her first Academy Award nomination. Awards prediction site GoldDerby says her performance is one of the three most likely to earn a supporting actress Oscar nomination. Balfe is aware of that chatter and admits that while receiving Academy love would be “really cool,” it’s also “so arbitrary and far away that I think it’s dangerous to start thinking about it too much.”

A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: DATE: DEC. 3, 2021 TIME: 8:30 a.m.; DEPT.: 4 SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF SOLANO 600 Union Avenue Fairfield, CA 94533 If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing.

Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statues and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

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

Tribune Content Agency SAN FRANCISCO — Draymond Green’s status is still in question for the finale of the Warriors’ eight-game homestand Friday, but they’ll be going up against an opponent who is unexpectedly shorthanded in the post.

Bulls center Nikola Vucevic was ruled out Thursday after entering the league’s health and safety protocols, reportedly testing positive for Meanwhile, Covid-19.

Green remains day-today with a bruised right thigh that coach Steve Kerr described as “pretty nasty.”

“I definitely got a little dinged (Wednesday). I’m pretty sore today,” Green said Thursday on the Jim Rome Show. “In the

What: Quarterfinals, Sac-Joaquin Section Division VII playoffs When: 7 p.m. Friday Where: Vacaville Christian Series: Mariposa County leads 1-0 Last meeting: 2019, Mariposa County won 52-27 in the Division VII semifinals Last week: Both teams had a bye Of note: The Falcons are hoping to ride the saying “Offense wins games, defense wins championships” to their second Sac-Joaquin Section championship. They’ve fielded one of the top defensive units in the section, one that includes many holdovers from the 2019 that lost to the Grizzlies in the Division VII semifinals.

This time it’s Mariposa County that has to make the 165-mile drive. . . . Vacaville Christian junior quarterback Hunter Jackson is 32-for-65 passing for 491 yards and five touchdowns. The Falcons have two ballcarriers with just over 450 yards in juniors Dominique Ruff and Wesley Krier. . . . Senior quarterback Wyatt Green leads Mariposa with 1,517 yards passing and 18 touchdowns. Senior Ayden Lopes has rushed for 750 yards and seven touchdowns for the Grizzlies. . . . Landon Robinson has hauled in 53 passes for 667 yards and six TDs. . . . The teams had three common opponents with the Falcons defeating Stone Ridge Christian (30-0), Gustine (7-0) and Denair (24-6), while the Grizzlies lost to Stone Ridge Christian (18-16) and beat Gustine (36-20) and Denair (36-0).

Prediction: Vacaville Christian 20, Mariposa County 14

grand scheme of things, a small thing to a giant.”

Green took the ding while going for a rebound in the third quarter of the Warriors’ win Wednesday against Minnesota. He exited the game with 6:29 left in the quarter and didn’t return. Afterward, Kerr said Green was questionable for Friday night, and that designation hadn’t changed a day later.

If Green is forced to miss time, expect Juan Toscano-Anderson, Otto Porter Jr. and Nemanja Bjelica to step into his minutes.

“We have to have a collective effort on the defensive end to try to do what he does by himself as a disrupter on that end,” Stephen Curry said.

Camryn Washington of Rodriguez High School poses with family and friends at the school in Fairfield before she signs her national letter of intent to play basketball at Cal State East Bay, Wednesday.

Signings: Letters From Page B1 Roxas said. “Three years ago I went to camp there and I loved it. It felt like home to me.”

Washington is coming off an all-Monticello Empire League season where she averaged 18 points per game

and 4.7 rebounds in a short season. Cal State East Bay just made her feel welcome.

“I loved the way they talked to me,” Washington said. “They made me feel part of the family, even before they made the offer.”

Division VII playoffs When: 7 p.m. Friday Where: Woodland Christian Series: Rio Vista leads 3-0 Last meeting: 2017, Rio Vista won 39-3 in the Division VII semifinals Last week: Both teams had a bye Of note: The Rams enter the playoffs with just two victories on the field – they had forfeit wins over Golden Sierra of Garden Valley, Highlands of North Highlands and San Juan of Citrus Heights – and had played just once since Sept.

17 before they closed the regular season Oct. 30 with a 34-28 loss to Hiram Johnson of Sacramento. While the Rams might be a tad rusty, they figure to be healthy – and well rested. . . .

Any Rio Vista player with postseason experience would have gotten it as freshmen in 2018 as the Rams missed the playoffs in 2019 and didn’t play in the spring, though it didn’t matter as there was no postseason. . . . Marco Carrillo, a sophomore, is the top offensive threat for Rio Vista with 60 carries for 435 yards and five touchdowns on the ground and 10 catches for 136 yards and one touchdown in the air. . . . The Cardinals, who received a forfeit win over Encina Prep of Sacramento, won the Sacramento Metro Athletic League title, scoring 360 points while giving up 107. . . . Junior quarterback Caden Pascoe has thrown for 1,079 yards and 15 touchdowns for Woodland Christian. Junior Billy Hinkle has 72 carries for 894 yards and 14 touchdowns. . . . The Rams and Cardinals shared two common opponents, both beating Millennium of Tracy, 39-0, with Rio Vista blanking Big Valley Christian of Modesto, 37-0, while Woodland Christian shut out the Lions, 19-0.

If you go: Take Interstate 80 to Davis and Highway 113 toward Woodland. Take the Gibson Road exit and turn left onto Gibson Road. Turn left onto Matmor Road. Look for the school at the left at 1787 Matmor Road.

Prediction: Rio Vista 28, Woodland Christian 24 Last week’s prediction record: 2-0; Season record: 47-13

Beckham From Page B1

OBJ starred for the New York Giants for five seasons before he was traded to the Cleveland Browns, but it did not work out for Beckham or the Browns.

Beckham caught only 17 passes for 232 yards this season before he

and the Browns agreed to part ways last week.

Beckham cleared waivers and became a free agent.

Beckham, who has 504 career receptions – 51 for touchdowns – joins a Rams team that already experienced failure adding a star receiver to its nucleus.
