Base commander gives supervisors quick, thorough report on all things Travis Matt Miller

FAIRFIELD — Col. Corey A. Simmons, commander of the 60th Air Mobility Wing at Travis Air Force Base, gave the Solano County Board of Supervisors a “three and a half minute” presentation Tuesday, full of information about what the future entails at the base and details on two historic events that happened the two previous years. Simmons said that $500 million will be spent at Travis the next two years, the biggest expense being the conversion from the KC-10s to the KC-46s, the new hangar and all that goes into that transition. Some $240 million will go to that effort. Other major construction will also include a Navy Take Charge and Move Out facility. TACAMO

is a flight system of survivable communication links designed to be used as a link between decision-makers and the triad of strategic nuclear weapon delivery systems around the world. The base is also in negotiations to upgrade the simmons runway, which Simmons said “is a lot of concrete,” some 150 feet by 10,000 feet to be exact. There are also plans to do $75 million in improvements to the aerial port to “make it the kind of operation we need to take care of business.” Simmons also thanked the supervisors for helping to make $70,000 in improvements outside of the base near to the North Gate to help with access on that side of the installation.

Some events happening in 2022 include a California Commanders Conference in the spring at Travis with all base commanders in the state meeting together. Simmons also will lead a Travis State of the Base presentation Feb. 11. Exercise missions will also take place on the base in April. Simmons announced that the Travis Air Show will return May 14-15. “That is really exciting for us,” Simmons said of the air show. “We are looking forward to doing that, to be able to hold an open house and open our door to the public.” Two events in the past two years stood out in the base’s mission, Simmons said.

Vaca council halts Allison Drive affordable housing mega-plex Lobs it back to Planning Commission K aty St. Clair

katy@dailyrepublic.com

VACAVILLE — A proposed affordable housing complex that would be built at the junction of Allison Drive and Nut Tree Parkway has been grounded by the City Council after several members raised concerns Tuesday about the project. The proposed complex would be 100% “affordable” housing, though affordability would be measured in various ways throughout the

site. Rents would be set at 30, 50, 60 and 80% below area median income, or AMI in development speak. None of the council members expressed oppo- sullivan sition to the affordable housing aspect of the project. Rather, several council members expressed concerns with a lack of parking, the need for more storage and recreation space, and other issues that they said they see at other high-density, lower-income residences. The project was unanimously approved by the Planning Commission but its next stop was

council approval, which failed. A motion was taken to have the city meet with the developer to address the council’s concerns and then send it through the Planning Department again. The developer at this point has the option to just bow out completely, as City Manager Aaron Busch pointed out. The developer, CFY Development, has proposed a 187-unit, sixstory building complex that would contain primarily one bedrooms and studios that cater to working professionals, singles and smaller families. The staff

report presented to the council states the project would also contain 45 two-bedroom units. Though there would be 187 units, there would only be 130 parking spaces available. Vice Mayor Nolan Sullivan was the first to raise questions, though he was clear that he supports the building of more affordable housing in Vacaville. “I’m very supportive of this project,” he said. “I think it’s exactly the density we need.” But Sullivan pointed out problems he sees in other high-density, lower-income apartment complexes that were built several years ago, such

Marina Village apartment plan gets approval Amy Maginnis-Honey

SUISUN CITY — The Planning Commission approved the site plan and architectural review application in a 4-0 vote Tuesday to build 160 apartment units at the southeast corner of Marina Boulevard and Buena Vista Avenue. There are two vacancies on the commission. The Marina Village Apartments project is described as a 100% affordable housing development. It will offer affordable rental units restricted to households earning 30 to 70% of the area median income. The development will consist of nine three-story garden-style residential buildings, a community building and a laundry building. The majority of public

commenters were concerned about how the development would affect traffic in that area. Many motorists travel Buena Vista Avenue to Marina Boulevard to access Highway 12. During commute and school hours, traffic can back up on Buena Vista and Railroad Avenue. The primary site access will be located adjacent to the management office, along the western edge of the site, connecting to Marina Boulevard through a right-turn-only driveway. Secondary site access will be located at the northeastern corner of the development, connecting to Buena Vista Avenue through a new driveway. An eastbound right-turn pocket is included at the proBuena Vista posed See Marina, Page A6

FAIRFIELD — Use permits for a poultry ranch on Bulkley Road, a winery and tasting room on Morrison Lane and a garbage disposal transfer station on Schroeder Road were all approved Thursday by the Solano County zoning administrator. The poultry ranch includes breeding and sales of laying hens and the construction of nine new buildings at 8444 Bulkley Road, located about 4.5 miles east of Dixon. The applicant was Ed Vega. The property owner is listed as Jorge E. Vega-Zambrano. “There will be two brooder houses (4,320 square feet) to raise the breeding chickens from 0-16 weeks old, when they will be transferred to seven laying houses (6,720 square feet) for fertile eggs to be collected. Fertile eggs will be transported to the hatchery, where they will be incubated and hatched, and

transported to the customers location,” the staff report states. As many as 18,000 chickens will be located on the site at any one time, and 60 cubic yards of manure will be transported off site each month for use as compost or fertilizer. n n n The use permit for the 2,400-square-foot Rosalynd winery and tasting room at 2212 Morrison Lane in Suisun Valley allows David White to develop a “mediumsized, non-marketing special events facility.” The site has been limited to six special events each year at the existing winery. The new permit allows for 12 events. The property is serviced with well water. n n n Allan Calder, the county planning manager sitting as the zoning administrator, also gave his approval to the permit application by EQ Industrial Ser-

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County Public Health Division reported Wednesday there were only 44 new coronavirus cases since Monday’s update, but also one more Covid-related death. Bela Matyas, Dr. county public health officer, said he believes that number – and especially the 29 cases from the past two days – is too low to be accurate. “So I assume we will get a correction,” Matyas said. “I don’t think that is an accurate number.” If it turns out to be correct, he said it would be consistent with a downward trend coming off only a small Thanksgiving bump rather than a winter surge. lone death The was a man over 65 living at home.

FAIRFIELD — Solano County supervisors this week adopted a 2.8% fire impact fee increase for the Cordelia, Dixon, Suisun and Vacaville fire protection districts. A public hearing was conducted Tuesday. There were no comments. The increase is “based on a 12-month percentage change in the Engineering News-Record California Construction Cost Index” as well as district-specific studies that support the fee on new growth within the districts, according to a staff report. The board also accepted the annual fire districts’ impact fee disclosures for fiscal year 2020-21. In related matters, the

supervisors approved a memorandum of understanding with the Solano Resource Conservation District “for collaborative wildfire prevention services efforts,” county documents state. “Solano County is undergoing efforts to develop a robust wildfire prevention infrastructure throughout the county, which includes establishing a countywide Fire Safe Council, aiding communities to form localized fire safe councils in their areas, developing a Community Wildfire Protection Plan, and developing evacuation zones and an evacuation plan as part of the protection plan,” the staff report to the board states. Linked to that is a $900,000 grant through the 2021 Fire Preven-

tion Grant Program, $265,000 of which will be used to establish a Fire Safety Council. The Solano Resource Conservation District is expanding its mission to include wildfire prevention services and has partnered with the county in a recent grant application to the state Department of Forestry and Fire Protection for fire prevention planning efforts, the report states. In other action, the board: a n Accepted $175,000 grant from the California Fire Safe Council to hire a county coordinator to support fire protection- and prevention-related efforts, and transferred $77,778 to recognize grant funding from the agency.

FAIRFIELD — The coming school year will see new classes for Golden West Middle School, Travis Education Center and Vanden High School students. Tiffany Benson, director of the curriculum instructor for the Travis School District, gave a presentation Tuesday on five new classes. “I did a survey on whether a new guitar class would be welcomed,” she said. “The first survey was at 70% and the second one showed 90% support.” The middle school will see a beginning guitar course and Art Making Through the Ages. Beginning Guitar provides students an opportunity to explore the fundamentals of guitar performance, reading traditional notation, and understanding the musical concepts of melody, harmony, rhythm and form, according to a staff report. Students

will also develop a deeper understanding for various multicultural styles of music. Art Making Through the Ages will look at artwork from different periods, according to the staff report. Each period of art that is introduced will have an art-making component. For example, starting with the Paleolithic era of cave drawings, students will learn the art period, what art was being made and why. Students will then create their own cave drawings representing contemporary times using similar materials (charcoal) on crumpled up newsprint or paper lunch bags. Each art period that is studied will have an art-making component that represents the contemporary, enabling students to draw on their knowledge of the world, their identity, their culture and the contemporary world in which they live. The high school will have three new classes. They will be Adulting 101, Introduction

to Ethnic Studies and Advanced Topics in Ethnic Studies. “Adulting 101 is designed to prepare students for independent living after high school,” Benson said during her presentation. “Students will gain knowledge and skills to be financially responsible, to enter the workforce, to manage basic household tasks and to create and meet financial goals.” A major focus of the class will be financial literacy with direct real-world applications, including topics of credit cards, health and auto insurance, taxes, loans and debt, budgeting and bills and long-term financial planning. It will also cover topics that range from how to handle professional stresses, what to look for in a contract and how to handle unexpected problems. This class is designed to prepare for life after high school and students will have an opportunity to bring in timely topics. See Classes, Page A9

Elections Office to start adjusting precincts with final OK of districts Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — Solano County supervisors this week finalized their district boundaries, and now the Elections Office will begin adjusting precinct lines. “It will probably take us a week. It looks like we have 30, 40 precincts that changed districts or their lines were moved,” John Gardner, the assistant registrar of voters, said in a phone interview Wednesday. The Elections Office staff also have work to do on city, school and special districts when those maps are approved and each of those are returned to the agency to confirm

the work has been completed correctly. The board action was taken Tuesday as part of the consent agenda and approved without comment. The maps are posted online. The county will also send its GPS data maps to the state for their map overlays. The federal congressional districts were scheduled to be completed Wednesday. The latest map shows Solano County as part of Rep. John Garamendi’s 3rd District, with Rep. Mike Thompson no longer representing Vallejo, Benicia or any other part of Solano. The state independent citizens commission has until Dec. 27 to complete

the Assembly and Senate district maps. The cities have until April 17 to finalize their maps. The next scheduled election is in June.

FAIRFIELD — Measures to prevent wildfires by encouraging controlled burning and to bolster pandemic recovery by allowing restaurants to sell to-go cocktails are among the new laws taking effect Jan. 1 that were written by Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa. “These new laws address some of California’s most pressing issues, including the rise in devastating wildfires and the need to maintain support for our rebounding economy,” Dodd said Thursday in a press release. “We face historic challenges and I’m happy to provide these commonsense solutions to ensure progress. I look forward to hitting the ground running next year as we continue to build a safer and more prosperous state for everyone.” These are among Dodd’s latest bills, which take effect Jan. 1: Senate Bill 52 (Public Safety Power Shutoffs): Defines utility de-energization events in the face of disasters including wildfires as local emergencies, making local government eligible for financial reimbursement.

State to get $4.86B of fed highway apportionment pool Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The U.S. Department of Transportation announced it will provide $52.5 billion to the states and the District of Columbia in 2022 under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. California is set to get $4.86 billion, the federal agency announced. Daryl Halls, the executive director of the Solano Transportation Authority, said how much Solano County agencies receive will depend largely on getting shovel-ready projects in the pipeline for grant funding.

California share by category • National Highway Performance Program: $2.46 billion • Surface Transportation Block Grant Program: $1.2 billion • Highway Safety Improvement Program: $262.3 million • Railway-Highway Crossing Program: $16.62 million • Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement: $506.65 million • Metropolitan Planning: $66 million • National Highway Freight Program: $127.29 million • Carbon Reduction Program: $106.7 million • Project Formula Program: $121.33 million Total: $4.86 billion Source: Federal Highway Administration

“We don’t have an exact figure. The way the apportionment bill works is there are a number of grants we will apply for.

The direct apportionments will go to our transit operators,” Halls said. There are nine categories listed in the

funding table provided by the Federal Highway Administration. Halls said the Solano Transportation Authority is working with the county and the cities to put a project list together, specifically mentioning the Highway 37/Fairgrounds Drive interchange project and two railroad crossing projects that are high priorities. The larger Highway 37 renovation project, he said, will likely be submitted by Solano, Napa, Marin and Sonoma counties as a long-term sustainability project. Other federal funds are siphoned through the state.

“We are committed to delivering on the promise of the bipartisan infrastructure law, and putting people to work modernizing our infrastructure and making it safer, more sustainable and more efficient,” Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said in a statement. The U.S. Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration said the funds will help “address long-overdue needs hampering the safety and performance of America’s roads, bridges and highways.” Additional funding from the Highway Infra-

structure Program and discretionary funding also will be made available, the agencies reported. “Today’s funding will help reduce the backlog of major repairs for highways and bridges and increase the number of communities that have strategies to reduce traffic deaths and serious injuries,” the statement said. The largest share of California’s apportionment, $2.46 billion, comes from the National Highway Performance Program. Another $1.2 billion comes from the Surface Transportation Block Grant Program.

Vallejo seeks new site for proposed homeless center Todd R. Hansen

thansen@dailyrepublic.net

VALLEJO — The city has its eye on two possible replacement sites for the original location of the proposed homeless services navigation center. City officials reported that the Midway Drive location was restricted to structures for human habitation because of its history as an industrial use. So now feasibility assessments for two alternative sites are underway. A City Council presentation on those locations is scheduled for January. “It’s not unheard of to find ground contamination on sites like the Midway Drive site, that was once home to industrial services, and in this case, a dry-cleaning business,” Interim Assistant City Manager Gillian Hayes said in a statement. “It is unfortunate that this important detail of contamination was overlooked, and while we could potentially move forward with additional environmental work to further clean the Midway Drive site to residential stan-

The navigation center is intended to be a “one-stop” location for sheltering and other homeless services. dards, we can’t allow the timeline for this center to fall behind any longer,” Hayes said in the statement. “We have people who are in desperate need of this center and have been waiting for far too long. We must pursue one of our other two options for a site location immediately.” The city will break ground on the project as soon as the alternative site is selected and the environmental review is completed. The navigation center is intended to be a “one-stop” location for sheltering and other homeless services. “The center will offer shelter beds and provide individual case management, connecting people to social, mental health and medical services,” See Center, Page A9

Lavell new president of Board of Education

Matt Miller

mmiller@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County Board of Education needed only 16 minutes for its full meeting Wednesday and elected its new president and vice president for 2022. Trustee Teresa Lavell was selected as the new board president. Trustee Amy Sharp voted no and Elease Cheek was absent from the meeting. “I’m honored to be nominated by my colleagues and to continue

the good work we do for our community,” Lavell said. Trustee Ginger Dunne was elected as vice president. Sharp again voted no with Cheek absent. The third elected position that was settled Wednesday was for a representative to the Solano County School Board Association Executive Board. The trustees voted to keep new president Lavell in her current position on the Executive Board, where she already serves as secretary.

Outgoing President Michelle Coleman, who will continue as a trustee, was honored for her service during 2021 by Superintendent Lisette Estrella-Henderson. “Thank you for your dedication to the board and to the children of our community,” Estrella-Henderson said of Coleman. “We’ve been thankful having you during this difficult time.” Coleman, after passing the gavel to Lavell, thanked the board for her time and their continued

service with her. “I appreciate each and every one of you and what we’ve been able to do this year,” Coleman said. “It’s been very difficult and I appreciate the flexibility. It’s important what we do for the children and their families.” The board also set its monthly meeting calendar for 2022: Jan. 12, Feb. 9, March 9, April 13, May 11, June 8, June 22 (to meet the June 30 budget adoption deadline), Aug. 10, Sept. 14, Oct. 12, Nov. 9 and Dec. 14.

Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — Democrats’ hopes of pushing their social spending and climate bill through the Senate by Christmas are faltering amid intraparty division, a potentially significant setback for President Joe Biden’s top legislative priority. Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y., had set Christmas as his deadline to advance the bill through the Senate. But with the vote tally falling short and important procedural work still to be done, the emerging reality on Capitol Hill is that the holiday deadline will slip, leaving Democrats with no choice but to come back in January and try again. Biden conceded as much in a statement Thursday night, noting that “it takes time to finalize these agreements,” but he expressed optimism. “We will advance this work together over the days and weeks ahead; Leader Schumer and I are determined to see the bill successfully on the floor as early as possible,” he said. Missing Schumer’s self-imposed deadline is not fatal for Biden’s agenda. In the House, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., canceled planned votes on the bill more than once before it was approved. But the prospect of

Council From Page One as crime; the accumulation of debris, children’s toys and other detritus due to a lack of space and storage; and parking issues. This time, he said, he’d like to see the city address these things before giving a new development the go-ahead. Emily Cantu, director of housing services, said such high-density housing was built at a time when laws and regulations were different and this project will have responsive and hands-on management, a point that was seconded by a representative of the developer, John Cicerone. Cicerone said security cameras will be in place to monitor and record all activity and the site manager will spend a “bulk” of his or her time supervising the parking.

ending the year with no Senate vote underscores the deep division between centrist Sen. Joe Manchin III of West Virginia and most other Senate Democrats, who are aligned to pass the bill as it stands. They are still far apart on the overall price tag, a key child tax credit and a ban on offshore oil drilling. There is some doubt Democrats would have any better shot at winning over Manchin and, to a lesser extent, fellow centrist Sen. Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona in the new year. Missing the year-end deadline would likely mean that a child tax credit that has been sending checks to many parents will expire for at least a month, an unnerving prospect for many Democrats who have touted its success. The tax credit rolled out in July as part of the American Rescue Plan, the Democrats’ Covid-19 relief bill. Democrats emerged from a closed-door meeting Thursday – one that Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., called “intense” – saying they hoped to enact the bill by year’s end. None were ready to declare Biden’s agenda dead for the calendar year, but participants acknowledged it would be all but impossible to pass the bill in the next two weeks. “Let’s face it, even if there was full agreement, we’ve not finished all the

scrubs and baths – the parliamentary process,” said Sen. Mark R. Warner, D-Va., referring to the intensive process of reviewing the bill to ensure it complies with Senate rules. “I don’t think it’s going to be (done) before Christmas,” said Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz. “But it shouldn’t be – it should be when we’re ready.” Still eager to end the year with a significant accomplishment, Democrats are hoping to change direction and enact a major voting rights bill – which would undo voting restrictions enacted in Republicanled states – through a carve-out of the Senate filibuster. But that doesn’t appear to have enough votes either – Manchin opposes such an action unless it is bipartisan. Republicans almost universally oppose the voting rights legislation. Sinema doesn’t support it either. After months of mounting frustration with Manchin, several Democrats went public with their annoyance this week that the huge spending bill has stalled. Many Democrats believe that its passage is necessary to ensure that they have any shot at maintaining power after the 2022 midterm election. “A 50-50 Senate is really problematic – I’ve used the word ‘sucks,’ ” said Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii. “Yes,

I am frustrated.” Sen. Richard J. Durbin, D-Ill., the majority whip, said he was “frustrated and disappointed.” “We’ve missed an opportunity,” he said. “But I’m not giving up.” House progressives were worried about this exact scenario earlier this year when they demanded that Democrats link together a smaller, bipartisan infrastructure bill with the social spending bill. They originally said they would withhold their votes from the bipartisan plan unless they had assurance that Manchin and Sinema would support the larger spending measure, known as “Build Back Better.” But ultimately, the progressives helped pass the bipartisan plan, relying on Biden’s assurance that he could deliver the Senate votes on the larger bill. The failure to meet the Christmas deadline could resurrect progressives’ concerns about Biden’s ability to deliver on that pledge. The approximately $1.75 trillion bill would fortify the nation’s social safety net by expanding tax credits under the Affordable Care Act, expanding Medicare to include hearing aids, and setting up a universal prekindergarten and child care program, among other plans. It would also fund about $500 billion in programs addressing climate change.

The Catch-22 that the council faced was the fact that state laws allow for “concessions” for developers who commit to creating affordable housing. In this case, the concessions were rowlett money-saving options silva such as less parking, less recreational area for as leading to problem tenants, and the ability to behaviors such as climbing up on roofs or build higher. Councilman Michael even vandalism. The proposed complex Silva echoed the concerns of others about parking, would contain a basketthough he also referred ball court, a community to proposed paint colors meeting area for barbeof the buildings as cuing and such, and a “ugly,” recommending fitness center. The city owns a coma “much more colorful mercially zoned area paint scheme.” “Maybe some wall art near the site and it was to bring up the overall suggested that the powers aesthetic of it,” he said. “A that be look into turning lot of time it can make a it into something recreational for families and big impact on morale.” Silva was also con- children, such as a park. But parking was big on cerned about a lack of space for children to get most council members’ exercise; Sullivan cited minds. There is no street such deficits in other parking available at that high-density housing location, and the devel-

oper was proposing 57 fewer spaces than there are apartments. In the staff report, CFY posited that, being of lower income, most people would have one or no car. They would also avail themselves of the nearby transit center. This didn’t fly with the council, who saw visions of traffic jams, towing, parking citations and an overflowing transit center lot. In the end, a motion to have the developer meet with city staff to address these issues was made; any new plan would then go back to the Planning Commission. Everyone voted yes on this except for Mayor Ron Rowlett, who gave no comment as to why he voted no. Cicerone was clear that the project would have to move quickly in order to qualify for financing, but the council was resolute.

people from Afghanistan. “That was the first time in history this base has been evacuated,” Simmons said of the response to the fire. “When I saw the fire coming over Cement Hill, I had no way of stopping it. We believed it was going to get into base housing, and thus we evacuated the installation. We did that in seven hours. Think about that for a second. I say that out loud and people think, ‘You’ve got to be kidding me.’ Our folks found

Some 36,000 of those, Simmons said, were “on the tails of Travis tail flash.” Travis also delivered Covid-19 relief to India and is working on a water treatment facility in the back of C-5 for emergencies around the globe. Simmons said 22,000 people live or work on the base, 8,500 active

duty, 3,500 reservists, 4,000 civilians and 7,000 families. There are 55,000 people that daily come and go through the base gates, he said. “We like to call ourselves The Beast,” Simmons said. “We are the largest base of all things (Department of Defense). We are really good at what we do. We are proud to be in Solano County and we make a promise that we will never embarrass you.”

Daniel Craig’s final Bond out on DVD next week Tribune Content Agency Daniel Craig’s fifth and final outing as 007 tops the DVD releases for the week of Dec. 21. “No Time to Die”: The 25th James Bond film, delayed multiple times by the pandemic, finds the beloved MI6 spy enjoying a short-lived retirement in Jamaica before being drawn back into the fold on a globetrotting mission that features villainous turns from Christoph Waltz and Rami Malek. “Director and cowriter Cary Joji Fukunaga has delivered the goods for Daniel Craig’s farewell tour: exciting locales, jaw-dropping stunts, a beguiling Bond girl, a

ridiculous villain, and of course, some romance,” writes Tribune News Service critic Katie Walsh in her review. With a cast that also boasts Ralph Fiennes, Naomi Harris, Ben Whishaw, Lea Seydoux and Ana de Armas, “Fukunaga gives Craig a stunning send-off as Bond, in this beautifully shot and epic adventure,” Walsh writes. “Despite the delays, ‘No Time to Die’ is worth the wait.” Also new on DVD next week: “The Many Saints of Newark”: David Chase revisits his hit HBO series “The Sopranos” in this prequel movie set in 1967 New Jersey, with James Gandolfini’s son Michael portraying the younger Tony Soprano.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You enjoy who you are, and this makes it possible for you to get much more pleasure out of every experience. Even daily errands and simple tasks will give you a peaceful, easy feeling. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Being an adult will have a lot to do with sticking to what’s constructive. This may involve seeing, and acting like you don’t see, or listening to it all and focusing only on the part that is actionable. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You have three eyes. Two for looking and one for seeing. The third eye does have certain known blinders. For instance, smoldering passion is a smoky irritant to say the least! CANCER (June 22-July 22). Knowing a lot about a person isn’t the same thing as knowing a person. You’ll get a chance to understand who a person really is, which will be very different from what can be assumed from a social media profile or resume. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

future wife and I lived within a mile of each other and could both walk to school, we had no classes together and never met. In junior high, we rode different school buses and shared no classes together. In high school, the 10th and 11th grades brought no classes together, and still we never crossed paths. Our senior year, in preparation of college, we both took typing. That’s the one class we ever shared. We started dating. We spent the first two years of college apart, but when we were home, we dated and spent a small fortune on stamps and envelopes to stay in touch. We spent the last two years of college together at the same university, and we dated each other exclusively. On a trip home during that last two years, we went to a jewelry store and put matching wedding bands on layaway. There was no engagement ring, nor was there a proposal. We just knew we were going to marry.

Today’s birthday You’re onto something – you know it and this year the world will know it too. Deals get made, papers signed, bonds braided. You’ll flip the script in February. In May you’ll give generously and receive unexpectedly. Powers of attraction will be at an all-time high in September, so focus well and celebrate the spoils. Libra and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 5, 11, 21 and 17.

puzzling fare. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re feeling reserved and there’s a benefit to holding back. After all, not every story needs an answer story from the personal history archives. You’ll be appreciated for your excellent listening. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Having things in common will bring you together. Making a connection takes more than togetherness, though. It’s the differences that ignite the spark. People who are too much alike aren’t so interesting to one another. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The competitive mood. It starts

with knowing you can beat someone else and then realizing that the thing to beat is the status quo, or perhaps your own personal best. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). You’re not trying to deceive anyone, and no one means to deceive you. But there are dynamics in play that cause people to behave a little differently. Have fun getting to know a heightened version of your personality. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). Don’t worry about saying the right thing. The words are not what move social discourse along. Hold the space, be interested, and you’ve won. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). Impulsive people need someone thoughtful next to them to temper their flaring energy. You’re the stabilizer who will anticipate the other person’s move and encourage all to take a pause before rushing into the wrong thing. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The only thing standing between you and the goal is a knowledge gap. Get the expert. Learn what you didn’t know that you didn’t know. The right one will be well worth your investment.

At the bridge table, if you suddenly realize that you have made a mistake, it is usually too bad. Only if playing at a Bridge Base Online casual table might you be permitted to “undo” your play. South nearly slipped on today’s deal. What did he do in four spades after West led the heart 10? South’s three-spade rebid invited game, indicating some 15-17 high-card points, whether North’s response was nonforcing, semiforcing or forcing. North naturally tried for game. (It was hard to bid three no-trump without a heart stopper.) If West had led the diamond 10 and East had shifted to the heart king at trick two, the contract would have failed. Now, though, South had a chance. He had nine top tricks: six spades, one heart and two clubs. The immediate reaction was to hope that West had the diamond ace. But then the declarer saw that that chance could wait until he had tried a different approach. South took the first trick with his heart ace, drew trumps and played three rounds of clubs, ruffing the last in his hand. Then he exited with a heart. Yes! After East took two tricks in the suit, he was forced to play a diamond. Pearl Buck, who won the Nobel Prize Dummy’s king was declarer’s 10th trick. If East had had a fourth heart, South in literature and spent most of the first half of her life living in China, said, “Every would have ruffed and hoped West had the diamond ace, but the chosen line gave great mistake has a halfway moment, a a second chance. split second when it can be recalled and perhaps remedied.” COPYRIGHT: 2021, UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE

Napa sexual assault case draws 690-year prison sentence Daily Republic Staff

drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — A Napa County judge on Wednesday sentenced a man to 690 years in state prison. Superior Court Judge R.L. Young handed down the weighty sentence after a jury found Samuel Cereda, 39, guilty on 50 counts of sexual assault on children. Young also awarded the victims $825,000 in damages, the Napa County District Attorney’s Office announced. “It was the strength of these young survivors that brought this preda-

tor to justice. After years of silence and suffering, we’re hopeful that this sentence finally gives them the peace they deserve. These unspeakable and horrific acts should absolutely keep this man incarcerated for the rest of his life,” Deputy District Attorney Agnes Dziadur, who prosecuted the case, said in the statement. “He will never have the opportunity to harm another child again. At a time in this state when the needs of survivors seem to be secondary to those of their abusers, the Napa County DA’s Office continues to recognize the need

for accountability and justice for all.” The jury found Cereda guilty Oct. 29 after a nine-day trial. The District Attorney’s Office showed Cereda had sexually assaulted one family member between 2017 and 2019 in Napa County, and another between 2009 and 2011 in San Bernardino County. survivors were The between 8 and 13 years old at the time of the sexual abuse, the county statement said. A friend, having learned of the abuse, convinced one of the victims to report the matter to

Judge sets new court dates for man jailed after Fairfield standoff Daily Republic Staff drnews@dailyrepublic.net

FAIRFIELD — A 31-year-old Fairfield man arrested in August on suspicion of attempted murder made a court appearance Thursday where a readiness conference and preliminary hearing were reset. Carlos Gomez-Jauregui will be back in court Jan. 27 in Department 15, Room 207, of the Justice Center in Fairfield before Judge Robert Bowers for a readiness conference. His preliminary hearing is scheduled at 10 a.m. in the same court. Gomez-Jauregui was arrested Aug. 23 after a two-hour standoff

with Fairfield police at 361 Santa Maria Drive ended peacefully with him being arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. Details of the incident were withheld by police at the time. Officers responded to the location shortly before 9:40 a.m., secured a search warrant based on the belief a domestic violence incident had

occurred, then waited for the crisis negotiation team to resolve the matter. Gomez-Jauregui continues to be held in Solano County jail on suspicion of attempted murder; torture; false imprisonment; assault with a deadly weapon with great bodily injury; corporal injury to a spouse, cohabitant or date; and for a suspected misdemeanor

probation violation that led to a rearrest and revoked probation, according to jail records. One of those misdemeanor offenses was for corporal injury to a spouse, co-habitant or date, according to jail records. Gomez-Jauregui was originally held without bail, which has since been reduced to $725,500.

Haiti gang releases all 12 Christian missionaries Tribune Content Agency A Haitian gang has released all of the remaining hostages that were kidnapped on Oct. 16 outside the capital of Port-au-Prince, the State Department and Haiti National Police confirmed Thursday, ending a two-month hostage crisis that gripped the Caribbean nation. Of the original 17 Christian missionaries and their family members that had been abducted in October, 12 remained in custody until Thursday. “We welcome the news that the remaining 12 individuals, including 11 U.S. citizens and one Canadian citizen, are free and will soon be reunited with their loved ones,” a State Department official told the Miami Herald and McClatchy Washington Bureau on Thursday. “The welfare and safety of U.S. citizens abroad is the highest priority of the Department of State. “We continue to provide all appropriate assistance to them and their families,” the official said. “We express our deepest appreciation to our Haitian, and international partners as well as the U.S. interagency for their assistance in facilitating their safe release.” The hostages were abducted just east of Portau-Prince by a notorious gang, 400 Mawozo, and were among a group of 12 adults and five children, including an 8-month-old. “Today, there is a feeling of contentment, not just for the hostages and the American and Canadian people but for Haiti,” said Gédéon Jean, director of the Center for Analysis and Research in Human Rights in Port-auPrince, which monitors kidnappings.

How 49ers, in five moves, may have saved their season Eric Branch

SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE

Deebo Samuel wasn’t taking handoffs, Jimmy Garoppolo was taking heat, Nick Bosa was lining up in the same spot, Arik Armstead was lining up at multiple positions and no one was noticing where the strangely invisible Brandon Aiyuk was lining up. It was Oct 24. The 49ers had dropped to 2-4 after a rain-soaked 30-18 home loss to the Colts. And head coach Kyle Shanahan was asked if it was time to make some personnel changes. “I’m not going to make some drastic (changes) right now,” Shanahan said. “I’ll go evaluate the tape.” The 49ers did make some significant tweaks to their defensive line that week. And they were about to do the same in their backfield. But some things didn’t change: Shanahan didn’t waver in his support of Garoppolo, or in his tough-love approach with Aiyuk. The 49ers have since

won five of seven and at 7-6 reside in the No. 6 spot in the seven-team NFC playoff race. Here’s an examination of five decisions that helped lead to their five wins since they were all wet on Oct. 24. MOVING BOSA AROUND Remember the Week 3 loss to the Packers? Bosa, lined up at his customary spot at right defensive end, was constantly chipped in mid-pass rush by running backs and tight ends, didn’t record a sack and later admitted being frustrated. “I kind of just sat there and took it,” Bosa said, “and felt sorry for myself.” Despite that disappointment, Bosa started the season well, particularly considering he was coming off major knee injury. However, he’s since morphed from productive to destructive: He has nine sacks in his past seven games after getting five in his first six starts. The seven-game stretch began with a two-sack performance in an Oct. 31 win at Chicago when he was first given the freedom to rush from either side. Defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans’ change was inspired at least partly because Pro Bowl pass rusher Dee Ford, who lines up on the left side, was first sidelined with a flare-up of his back injury from which he won’t

Sources: Kings face Covid-19 outbreak with more players testing positive Tribune Content Agency A Covid-19 outbreak forced the Kings to cancel practice and shut down their team facility Thursday with additional players expected to enter NBA health and safety protocols. Interim coach Alvin Gentry, guard Terence Davis and forward Marvin Bagley III entered the league’s protocol system prior to Wednesday’s 119-105 win over the Washington Wizards at Golden 1 Center. Sources told The Sacramento Bee there were additional positive tests Thursday with the possibility of more as the team undergoes increased testing throughout the day. Players and staff are undergoing polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing with sameday results. Testing is required whether individuals are vacci-

nated or not. The situation in Sacramento worsened Thursday afternoon when point guard De’Aaron Fox entered health and safety protocols, as first reported by The Athletic’s Shams Charania. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski later reported center Alex Len and two-way forward Louis King had also entered protocols. All activities inside the team facility were canceled Thursday, including practice, meetings and medical treatment. Sources said there was internal concern over the number of players who will be available for Friday’s home game against the Memphis Grizzlies and “in the near future.” Earlier this week, the NBA postponed See Kings, Page B2

Thompson’s return date reportedly pushed back Warriors trying to limit anticipation

Tribune Content Agency NEW YORK — Despite anticipation that Klay Thompson could be ready to make his longawaited return when the Warriors get home from their current road trip, the team will reportedly have to wait a little longer. The earliest date of Thompson’s first game back from a 30-month injury absence has been pushed back to Dec. 28, according to a report Thursday by The Athletic’s Shams Charania. While the Warriors have not publicly set a timeline for their star’s return to the court, it

DAVIS — After committing 19 turnovers through the first three quarters, the Will C. Wood High boys basketball had none in the fourth en route to a 51-36 win over Yuba City in the first round of

was previously reported that it could come in the week before their Christmas Day showdown in Phoenix. At approximately the same time that Thursday’s report was published, Warriors coach Steve Kerr was addressing the media following practice before Golden State departed for Boston on the penultimate leg of its five-game road trip. Kerr said that he is in daily communication with Dr. Rick Celebrini and the Warriors training staff, who remained in the Bay Area to work with Thompson and James Wiseman, but

that there was nothing new to share. “I talk to Rick pretty much every day. They were all in Santa Cruz yesterday. They’re getting their work in,” Kerr said, but he was not able to say the longest Thompson was able to run in his scrimmages. Thompson, who tore his right Achilles last November while rehabbing from a torn left anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) he suffered in the 2019 NBA Finals, has spent the majority of the Warriors’ past two road trips practicing with the G League squad in Santa Cruz. He has fully healed from both inju-

ries. All that’s left is to get back in game shape. Since being cleared as a full participant in practice, Thompson has been playing five-onfive, starting in stints of 4 minutes and eventually ramping up to playing 12 minutes at a time, the equivalent of a full quarter of basketball. “I think he’s looked awesome. To me, he’s ready to go,” said Leandro Barbosa, a Warriors player mentor coach who was scrimmaging with Thompson on Golden State’s past road trip but traveled with the team on the current See Return, Page B2

A’s ballpark could get key February vote after Oakland report out Friday Tribune Content Agency Oakland will release the final version of a key environmental report on Friday for the A’s proposed $12 billion waterfront ballpark project at Howard Terminal, a crucial step before potential city approval in 2022. The A’s want to build a 35,000-seat waterfront ballpark, 3,000 units

of housing, 1.5 million square feet of offices and 270,000 square feet of retail space, which would transform the area around Jack London Square and boost economic development with thousands of new jobs and residents. The environmental impact report is a detailed study that the city must prepare

for most large development projects. The report addresses areas of concern including port compatibility, removal of toxic waste from the Howard Terminal site, pollution and traffic. The Planning Commission is expected to vote on whether to recommend approval of See Ballpark, Page B10

49ers: Moves have made big impact From Page B1 return this season. With Bosa hopscotching spots, it’s been harder for teams to employ their pre-snap plans to double-team or chip him, and it’s also allowed Bosa to exploit mismatches. Last Sunday, for example, Bosa spent much of the second half lined up against Bengals backup right tackle Isaiah Prince, who entered after starter Riley Rieff was injured. Bosa, who estimated he’d faced Prince “a thousand times” when they were teammates at Ohio State, beat the 2019 sixth-round pick for two lategame sacks. His pummeling of Prince reminded me of what Bosa said when asked about Cardinals’ All-Pro J.J. Watt, who has moved across the line throughout his career: “That’s just smart football,” Bosa said, “putting J.J. Watt on the worst player.” KEEPING ARMSTEAD INSIDE Just as Ford’s injury inspired the 49ers to use Bosa differently, defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw’s knee surgery in October prompted them to change how Armstead was deployed. Instead of continuing to move Armstead across the line, they’ve kept him inside to offset the loss of Kinlaw’s run-clogging presence. They weren’t immediately rewarded. They were gashed for a

Return From Page B1 one. “So far, so good. I’m very impressed with what he’s been doing. He’s a little slow, but even with the slow pace of the way he plays, he’s still really good. I try to do my best. I try to keep up with him. I also try to be really, really fast and quick so that he can bring back that explosiveness on both legs, especially when we play one-on-one, and he’s been doing great.” If Thompson doesn’t return for either of the Warriors’ two games before Christmas – Dec. 20 vs. Sacramento and Dec. 23 vs. Memphis – that

EXPANDING SAMUELS’ ROLE Shanahan wants to run the ball.

It sets a tone and it sets up his passing game. However, he didn’t have any appealing options at running back beyond rookie Elijah Mitchell for the first half of the season. Raheem Mostert was lost for the year in Week 1, rookie Trey Sermon was a disappointment and last year’s leading rusher, Jeff Wilson, didn’t return from knee surgery until Week 10 and has since been eased back in. The solution? Start handing the ball to Samuel, who is among the NFL’s most physical and elusive wideouts after the catch. Since Samuel debuted as a parttime running back in a 31-10 win over the Rams on Nov. 15, the 49ers are 4-0 in the games he’s played and have averaged 30.3 points and 158.8 rushing yards per game (first six games: 22.5 points, 120.2 yards). The emergence of Aiyuk and the return of All-Pro tight end George Kittle from injured reserve in early November allowed the 49ers to tweak the role of their best wide receiver, who still ranks seventh in the NFL in receiving yards (1,028) despite having one catch in each of his past three games. Samuel hasn’t been grabbing many passes, but he’s been grabbing even more attention while resembling a modern-day Jim Brown: 27 carries, 218 yards and five touchdowns since he added a second position.

would mean they’ll face their top competition in the Western Conference for a third time without the reinforcements of Thompson’s return. Warriors brass has committed to bringing back Thompson in front of the home crowd at Chase Center. Golden State travels to Phoenix for a Christmas Day game against the Suns, then returns home to face the Nuggets on Dec. 28. If Thompson isn’t able to return by Dec. 28, it would have to wait until Jan. 3 for it to come at home. After that, the Warriors only have one more home game until Jan. 18. On the opposite side of the country, the Warriors have been able to disengage from the anticipation

of Thompson eventually rejoining them. They are reminded of his progress every time they come home, though, Draymond Green said. “When you see him every day, he looks good,” Green said. “So when you see him every day, you’re like, ‘Oh, man, Klay looked good. You see Klay?’ So not being around him definitely helps. But the reality is you’re not around him for seven days and then you come back and he looks even better than he did a week ago. Then you’re back to like, ‘Oh, man.’ So I try to stay away from it.” Green, who has never missed more than six consecutive games, said nevertheless he understands that the

anticipation for Thompson only makes the final steps of a long rehab process all the more difficult, so the team tries not to add to it. “You start to feel the pressure of anticipation of everybody else around you in a circle when that starts to mount up. The reality is I don’t think he should feel that. I don’t think that’s fair to him,” Green said. “He may not be ready tomorrow, mentally. His body may be great, but is he ready tomorrow mentally? He could not be. So I don’t want him to feel that anxiety and that pressure that I know comes with it when everybody’s looking, like, ‘Hey Klay, you about to be back yet?’”

for each game. NBA health and safety protocols require players to be sidelined for a minimum of 10 days or until they produce two negative tests at least 24hoursapart. LosAngeles Lakers star LeBron James was cleared to return after missing just one game against the Kings on Nov. 30,

but other players have experienced prolonged absences. The Kings have encountered Covid-19 cases in the past, but this is the first time they have experienced this kind of outbreak. Gentry told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski he tested positive Wednesday morning. Bagley and

Davis entered health and safety protocols Wednesday afternoon as the Kings were preparing to open a three-game homestand against the Wizards, adding to the growing number of players and coaches who have entered the protocol system over the past two weeks.

season-high 176 rushing yards in their win over the Bears and 163 more the next week in a humiliating loss to the Cardinals. However, the interior pairing of Armstead with nose tackle D.J. Jones explains the transformation of their run defense, which allowed 119 yards a game and 4.4 yards per carry in their 2-4 start. In their past five games, not including a 73-yard fake-punt touchdown run surrendered by their special teams, the 49ers have allowed 66.4 rushing yards a game and 3.5 yards a carry. KEEPING FAITH IN GAROPPOLO The question to Shanahan after that loss to the Colts: Will Garoppolo remain your starter? Two weeks later, after the defeat to the Cardinals: Is it time for Trey Lance? Shanahan didn’t open the door to QB drama in either instance. And his unflinching support of Garoppolo inspired questions about the 49ers’ plan in the midst of a season that was seemingly swirling down the drain: Um, Kyle, how about getting the rookie in whom you invested three first-round picks ready for 2022, while possibly giving a needed jolt to 2021? Instead of giving in, Shanahan appeared to dig in. He’s explained that he’s stopped giving Lance in-game cameos because it disrupted his play-calling rhythm, but it’s fair to wonder if he considered another benefit: Not disrupting Garoppolo’s rhythm.

Garoppolo posted a seasonworst 60.9 passer rating against the Colts in Week 7; but since Week 8, he ranks first in the NFL in yards per attempt (8.9), second in passer rating (105.5) and fifth in passing yards per game (261.6). Meanwhile, Lance threw his last pass on Oct. 10. KEEPING THE HEAT ON AIYUK Aiyuk had one catch for six yards in the Indianapolis loss and his ongoing disappearance raised questions about Shanahan’s hard-line approach with the 2020 first-round pick who was coming off a promising rookie season. After all, Shanahan, a former college wide receiver, had also been stingy with praise and ultra-demanding of Dante Pettis, a 2018 secondround pick who didn’t respond as hoped and was waived last year. Aiyuk, however, began catching passes after receiving endless kicks in the pants. He had nine catches for 96 yards and a touchdown in his first six games. He’s since had 32 catches for 453 yards and three scores, along with a sweet moment with his head coach. After Aiyuk had the game-winning touchdown in Sunday’s overtime victory in Cincinnati, he caught another pass in the locker room after Shanahan threw him the game ball.

First and foremost, educate yourself on what is going on in the nation and abroad. You will not get this from Old Media. You have to seek other sources – and there are many on the internet. Find some that tell the truth and back it up with facts. Next, get involved. Go to city council and school board meetings. Learn all you can about the issues they deal with, and watch how they deal with them. If you have a different perspective, say so. Finally, understand that a motivated individual can do a lot. A dedicated group that understands the problems and the objectives can do a great deal more. Join one of them. Not only will you be making an impact, but you’ll get great satisfaction from being part of the governing process. From The Tax Watchers, here’s our wish to you for a happy and blessed Christmas.

IMPORTANT ADDRESSES

he emails arrived Monday just minutes apart. The first, from a group called Affordable Clean Energy for All, proclaimed “CPUC Takes Steps to Fix the Unfair Customer Cost Shift Created by 25-Year-Old Rooftop Solar Program.” The second, from a rival organization, the Environment California Research & Policy Center, countered with “California Public Utility Commission fails Californians by gutting bedrock solar program.” Both were reacting to release of a California Public Utilities Commission draft ruling that would reduce the payments from utilities to owners of rooftop solar power systems Dan Walters when they feed excess juice back into the grid. It would also require those owners to pay a monthly fee for using the grid. The release capped months of political jousting between the state’s major utilities, backed by their employees’ unions, and the solar power industry, which has allies among environmental groups, over how solar energy will develop as the state attempts to drastically reduce its carbon footprint. Will it emphasize individual solar installations controlled by consumers or large solar panel farms controlled by utilities and their suppliers? The big utilities – Pacific Gas and Electric, Southern California Edison and Sempra Energy – are pushing the policy change. They argue that since rooftop solar arrays are mostly owned by upper-income Californians, the current policy, in effect, gives them a subsidy, of as much as $3.4 billion a year, from the pockets of less affluent ratepayers. They also contend that since owners of solar panels use the grid, they should pay something to maintain it, hence the $57 monthly fee. The companies that install personal solar systems counter that the new policy proposal would make them less affordable to middleand low-income homeowners. They and their environmental allies also contend that changing the rules would have the overall effect of reducing solar generation and thus hamstring California’s efforts to wean itself from carbonbased energy. Both sides have waged public relations and media campaigns to sell their messages, but so far, with the release of the draft, the utilityled faction is prevailing, which is not surprising given the CPUC’s historic slant. While it regulates utilities, supposedly to protect consumers, the commission also has an implicit duty to make sure that power companies are financially healthy enough to attract investors and borrow money for system improvements. Clearly, the utilities – and their unions – see the growth of personal solar systems as a potential threat to their financial future. Reducing that threat, rather than creating more equity, is their true motive for seeking a change of policy. Likewise, while their solar industry rivals also claim equity as their motive, the proposal would make it more difficult to sell rooftop systems, more than a million of which are already operative. So their underlying motive is also financial. The full CPUC is expected to vote early next year, but the battle is not over and it now shifts to Gov. Gavin Newsom, who appoints its members. He’s already nominated a new chairwoman, Alice Reynolds, who is now his energy adviser and will take the new position before a final vote on the policy. Politically, therefore, it is very clear that the revised solar policy will only be adopted if Newsom wants it to be adopted. Setting aside the major interest groups in the conflict, it involves two sub-factions that have close ties to the governor – unions and environmentalists – although the latter are also divided into pro and con camps. The full CPUC is likely to adopt the proposed policy change and if there’s political fallout, Newsom will feel it as he seeks re-election next year.

risen sharply – suggesting that merchants who set their prices for many months at a time expect high inflation to persist. To address the threat of rising inflationary expectations, the Fed must act quickly and aggressively. Specifically, it should be prepared to initiate a sequence of meetingby-meeting rate increases in the first half of next year, and to keep going until inflation comes back down near 2%. Such a steep path of tightening could take short-term interest rates well above the 2.5% level that Fed officials consider to be “neutral,” far higher than what they’re currently forecasting. This would come as a shock to markets and would entail some immediate economic pain. But it would eliminate the risk of a lot more pain in the future.

The 10 best albums of 2021 life – to three real lives – when the romance at the center of a family dies.

Los Angeles Times

As the world slowly reopened after – well, amid – the pandemic, musicians naturally moved beyond themselves this year to ponder ideas of identity and community. The best found deep connections between the private and the universal – not to mention among the eras and styles that digital streaming continues to bring closer together.

1. Jazmine Sullivan, ‘Heaux Tales’ Years after leaving fans wondering whether she might be finished with music, the R&B star returned in 2021 with an album as much about listening as about singing: A moving and witty blend of songs and spoken testimonials from Sullivan’s friends and family, “Heaux Tales” – like Beyoncé’s “Lemonade” – uses personal narratives to illuminate a larger story about Black women’s lives.

2. Olivia Rodrigo, ‘Sour’ Call it “All Too Well (34 Minute Version).” On her instant-smash debut, pop’s most talented new songwriter adapts the many lessons she’s learned from her idol Taylor Swift for an age when any teenager’s diary is open to likes and quote tweets.

3. Rostam, ‘Changephobia’ With echoes of Chet Baker and Charlie Parker in his head – and thoughts of long-sought institutional change on his mind – the former Vampire Weekend member strikes a tricky balance of nostalgia and idealism.

4. Lil Nas X, ‘Montero’ Turns out the “X” marks the spot where trap, pop-punk and emo-folk meet. What’s more

5. Lana Del Rey, ‘Chemtrails Over the Country Club’ The stronger of Del Rey’s two 2021 LPs dreams of an escape from celebrity as vividly as the singer once yearned to find a place among the glitterati: Heed the way she almost-rhymes “I left Calabasas” with “The cameras have flashes” with “They cause the car crashes.”

6. Tyler, the Creator, ‘Call Me If You Get Lost’ Framed as a jump-cutting mixtape complete with color commentary by DJ Drama, the troublemaking L.A. rapper’s latest lashes together a wild array of sounds and textures as he boasts of traveling the world in the highest of style. Yet the most striking cut sticks closest to home: “Wilshire,” an eight-minute monologue in which Tyler carefully mulls his involvement with the lover of a close friend.

by Phillip Alder South won with dummy’s 10 and played a club to his queen. West won and led his second trump, East following suit. How did declarer continue? After West’s weak jump overcall, if North had bid three hearts, that would have shown the values for a single raise. His jump to game indicated game-invitational strength. A three-spade cue-bid would have promised game-forcing power. Yes, that North hand had only seven losers, which is the normal number for a game-force. However, despite the void, with only 7 high-card points and such weak trumps, North sensibly pulled in one notch. South started with 11 tricks: one spade, five hearts, two diamonds, one club and two spade ruffs on the board. From where would he get another winner? The logical place was in clubs. If they were splitting 4-3, the club eight could be ruffed good. So, at trick four, declarer trumped a spade. He cashed the club king, discarding a diamond, and ruffed a club in his hand. West’s spade discard was a blow. However, South realized that West had presumably started with 6=2=3=2 distribution. Declarer cashed his diamond king, played a diamond to the ace and ruffed a diamond -- bingo! After another spade ruff, South threw his spade queen on the high diamond seven.

Springsteen sells music catalog in record-breaking, $500 million deal Los Angeles Times The Boss is getting a Christmas bonus. Bruce Springsteen has sold his entire of music, catalog including his master recordings and song publishing catalog, to Sony Music Entertainment in a blockbuster deal that reportedly could be worth $500 million. The record-setting transaction, which includes classic songs “Born to Run,” “Dancing in the Dark,” “Born in the U.S.A.” and hundreds of others stretching back nearly 50 years, will send Springsteen’s recorded masters to his longtime home Sony Music and his song publishing to its corporate sibling, Sony Music Publishing. The Boss’ holiday payday, which was first reported in Billboard, is the largest in a string of deals since 2019 that has seen classics of American music sold to major music houses. Artists including Stevie Nicks, James Brown, Neil Young and Paul Simon have sold either parts of all of their work in recent years. In March, Bob Dylan sold his catalog to Universal Music for a reported $300 million. Earlier this week, Primary Wave purchased James Brown’s music assets for $90 million. “Our eyes are on the world,” Sony Music Chairman Rob Stringer said during an investor’s relations meeting in May. “Anywhere where we think there is a deal that enhances our ecosystem, we will be there.” He added that in the most recent quarter, Sony Music Publishing owned the rights to, and earned income from, more than 30% of all songs streamed on Spotify. In a nearly 50-year span, Springsteen’s music has been stitched into the fabric of American culture. He released his first album, “Greetings from Asbury Park, on Columbia N.J.” Records, now a subsidiary of Sony Music, on Jan. 5, 1973. In the U.S., his album catalog has

Bruce Springsteen performs in New York City, Nov. 8. sold more than 65 million copies, according to Billboard. His most successful album, 1984’s “Born in the U.S.A.,” alone has sold more than 15 million copies. Representatives for Springsteen declined to comment on the sale. The unprecedented gold rush for publishing catalogs has been propelled by the success of streaming platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music. In May, Goldman Sachs projected that global music revenues would grow by more than 80% to $142 billion by 2030, up from $77 billion in 2019. The bank estimated that more than 1.2 billion users will subscribe to a music streaming service by 2030; in 2020, that number was 467 million. Publishing companies including Hipgnosis, Primary Wave and Concord and global music powerhouses BMG and Universal Music Publishing invested more than $7 billion into mergers and acquisitions in the first four months of 2021, which nearly equaled the total spent in 2020. Stringer told investors that during the first half of 2021, Sony spent nearly $1.4 billion on deals, most prominently on Simon’s body of work. “Subscription revenue might not be increasing as fast as some would like, but the global music subscriber base is not just growing – it is growing faster than ever,” noted streaming analyst Mark Mulligan of Midia Research in July.

T.S. No. 20000320-7 CA APN: 0033-121-120 NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 05/11/2018. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier's check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state will be held by the duly appointed trustee as shown below, of all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by the trustee in the hereinafter described property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described below. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. Trustor: Cynthia Anne Gonzalez and Roberto Garibay Gonzalez, III, wife and husband as community property with right of survivorship Duly Appointed Trustee: ZBS Law, LLP Deed of Trust Recorded on 05/16/2018, as Instrument No. 201800033010 of Official Records of Solano County, California; Date of Sale: 01/12/2022 at 09:00 AM Place of Sale: Vallejo City Hall, 555 Santa Clara Street, Vallejo, CA 94590 Estimated amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $389,104.96 Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt owed. Street Address or other common designation of real property: 213 WISCONSIN STREET FAIRFIELD, CA 94533 Described as follows: As more fully described on said Deed of Trust. A.P.N #.: 0033-121-120 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (855) 976-3916 or visit this Internet Web site www.auction.com using the file number assigned to this case 20000320-7 CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (855) 976-3916 or visit this Internet Web site https://tracker.auction.com/sb1079 using the file number assigned to this case 20000320-7 CA to find the date on which the trusteeʼs sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trusteeʼs sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trusteeʼs sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

T.S. No.: 210816128 Notice of Trusteeʼs Sale Loan No.: 180688 Order No. 95525113 APN: 445-0130-007-00 You Are In Default Under A Deed Of Trust Dated 6/28/2018. Unless You Take Action To Protect Your Property, It May Be Sold At A Public Sale. If You Need An Explanation Of The Nature Of The Proceeding Against You, You Should Contact A Lawyer. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cashier's check drawn on a state or national bank, cashierʼs check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a cashierʼs check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state will be held by the duly appointed trustee as shown below, of all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by the trustee in the hereinafter described property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described below. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust, with interest and late charges thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount may be greater on the day of sale. No cashierʼs checks older than 60 days from the day of sale will be accepted. Trustor: Katia Nunez Duly Appointed Trustee: Total Lender Solutions, Inc. Recorded 8/2/2018 as Instrument No. 2018152210 in book , page of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of Alameda County, California, Date of Sale: 1/4/2022 at 12:00 PM Place of Sale: At Fallon Street emergency exit, Alameda County Courthouse, 1225 Fallon St., Oakland, CA Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $61,864.89 Street Address or other common designation of real property: 24482 Leona Drive Hayward, CA 94542 A.P.N.: 445-0130-007-00 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. Notice To Potential Bidders: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. Notice To Property Owner: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (877) 440-4460 or visit this Internet Web site www.mkconsultantsinc.com, using the file number assigned to this case 210816128. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Notice To Tenant: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (877) 440-4460, or visit this internet website site www.tlssales.info, using the file number assigned to this case 210816128 to find the date on which the trusteeʼs sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trusteeʼs sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trusteeʼs sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Ballpark From Page B1 the environmental report on Jan. 19 and the City Council will decide whether to approve the report in February. The city and A’s must also finish negotiating a final development agreement, and a final vote on the project could come later in 2022. Over the last few months, the city has responded to nearly 4,000 public comments raised after a draft was released in February. “Releasing the final environmental impact report is a major milestone on our path to build a new waterfront ballpark district that will create 18 acres of beautiful public parks, more affordable housing, and good jobs for Oaklanders. The 3,500-page document is

thorough and exhaustive, and it ensures that the project is environmentally safe and sustainable,” Mayor Libby Schaaf said in a statement. Schaaf said the completion of the report keeps the city “on track to bring the project for a final vote to the City Council in 2022 – and brings us one step closer to keeping our beloved A’s rooted in Oakland.” The A’s have pressured the City Council to take a final vote on the team’s ballpark project plans as soon as possible. The city has given the team feedback on its proposal and is awaiting revised plans, which it expects soon. A’s President Dave Kaval has said it’s urgent the team resolve its future. A’s officials have visited Las Vegas since May to explore relocation possibilities while also negotiating with Oakland. The A’s didn’t immediately have

comment Thursday. Opponents have criticized the project, saying that it would disrupt maritime business and harm the environment. A coalition that includes Pacific Merchant Shipping Association, Schnitzer Steel, the Harbor Trucking Association and the California Trucking Association filed a lawsuit in March 2020 in hopes of derailing the A’s bid to benefit from a state law, AB734, that would expedite any legal challenges to the environmental impact report. In February, a judge ruled in the A’s favor. AB734 mandates that environmental lawsuits involving the A’s stadium be resolved within 270 days – a much shorter time frame than the typical legal battle, which can take years. Major development projects are frequently sued over environmental reviews, including the Golden

State Warriors’ Chase Center project. Environmental groups that have criticized the project have pointed to regulatory documents that found soil and groundwater at Howard Terminal contains hazardous and cancercausing chemicals that would need to be cleaned up before building. The California Department of Toxic Substances Control is overseeing cleanup on the site. Those groups are also concerned about pollution and traffic from the development. Other critics include some Chinatown leaders, who have expressed concerns on how traffic could impact the neighborhood. But last February, Carl Chan, the president of the Oakland Chinatown Chamber of Commerce, said he supports the project. The first phase of development could take at least two years to build.

tina Edwards scored the game-winning layup with 16 seconds remaining to lift the Will C. Wood High girls basketball team to a 59-58 win over Benicia, Tuesday. Kailei Gomez topped the Wildcats (3-2) with 15 points, with Natalie Sanchez getting 13 and Edwards 11. “We started off slow and rocky,” Wood coach Matthrew Lowry said. “We struggled to find an offense at the beginning. Almost (the) same

story as last week. (The) girls stayed tough and battled back. I was very proud of everyone tonight. However, we can’t afford to keep starting slow. Overall our defense won us this game.”
