Commission denies appeal to stop waste transfer facility Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — James Schneider told the Solano County Planning Commission Thursday night that US Ecology is not telling the whole story about its proposed waste transfer facility on an 8-acre site located about a half-mile west of Dixon.

He appealed a Dec. 16 zoning administrator’s decision approving the revised use permit to operate the transfer station.

Schneider had no doubt about the credentials US Ecology brings to the work it does, but wondered why the operation had to be in an exclusive agriculture zone rather than in an industrial zone. He suspected it was for financial reasons.

More seriously, Scheider argued the company was not transparent about what it will be doing at the site, and argued it had failed to provide adequate information in some cases and misleading or completely missing information on other matters.

He claimed that hazardous materials would be handled at the site, which was not part of the public notice, and that the county failed to consider the economic impact on neighboring properties. He noted one house, other than the one on-site, is within the required 500 feet of the site and that had not been disclosed or addressed, either.

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County Board of Education proposes next week to wade into the Covid-19 vaccination debate with a resolution that, if approved, would take a stand against a vaccine mandate for schoolchildren.

An item up for consideration Wednesday is consideration of a resolution requesting that Gov. Gavin Newsom rescind the proposed Covid-19 vaccine mandate for children and teens in public and private schools, and veto any legislation that would require such a mandate.

Newsom has called for such a requirement for age groups for

which vaccinations have received full authorization. Such a requirement could be in place for the start of the 2022-23 academic year.

The resolution shows data that California’s Covid case rate for the 0 to 17 age group is proportionally lower than any other age group. For children, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that as of Jan. 10, 26.3% of children ages 5 to 11 and 64.3% of children ages 12 to 17 have received at least one Covid-19 vaccine dose.

The resolution states that many parents, including those who are vaccinated and pro-vaccination, are “uncomfortable with subjecting their young children to a

vaccination for which there is no longitudinal data.” The text of the resolution indicates the right of parents to make risk analysis-based decisions for their children, not school or government officials.

The resolution states that while parents are respected for their right to choose the most suitable educational program for their children, the Board of Education believes the vaccine mandate could result in large numbers of families choosing to leave traditional in-person K-12 schools.

Solano County is the sixth most diverse county in the United States, according to data in the resolution,

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden announced Thursday that the leader of Islamic State was killed during an overnight raid by U.S. forces in Syria that also left a number of civilians dead, declaring the operation a success that eliminated a “major terrorist threat to the world.”

“Thanks to the bravery of our troops, this horrible terrorist leader is no more,” Biden said during an address from the White House.

Senior administration officials said all troops returned safely from the mission, and portrayed the slaying of Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi as a major victory in the nation’s counterterrorism efforts. Al-Qurayshi, who took over the reins of Islamic State in 2019 following the slaying of its previous leader, had been coordinating “the group’s global terror operations to include directing operations that pose a direct threat to the American people and our partners around the world,” said a senior U.S. administration official who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the matter.

Al-Qurayshi was one of the last of the original leaders of a now-hobbled terror network that just a few years ago held domain over 8 million people as it carried out attacks in Brussels, Paris and other cities. Though Islamic State has been stripped of its caliphate and depleted, it and See Raid, Page A8 SUNDAY

FAIRFIELD — Krishna Abrams was introduced Wednesday night to a blast of “Eye of the Tiger” as the two-term Solano County district attorney launched her re-election campaign.

Speakers, which included Sen. Bill Dodd, preceded her comments – all emphasizing how she has kept her eye on her priorities of helping victims gain a voice in the justice system and putting criminals away.

Dodd said Abrams has been passionate about public safety issues and has worked with him on a number of matters, including bills to better protect against elder abuse.

It is a Weirdly wonderful mashup masterpiece.

1972 Fairfield High

School yearbook

The staff of the 1972 Fairfield High School Talon yearbook created one of the weirdest and in my view most unique and wonderful local yearbooks ever.

It has this 15 page long original story that starts the book that is introduced this way: “We the Talon Staff of 1971-1972 wish to offer you in these first fifteen pages a fantasy of the most devilish content, a nightmare of diffused frustrations and futility that occurs within the harboring wall of school.”

They then say that readers can opt out of reading it by skipping to Page 16, starting from Page 304 and working back to Page 1 “ending in tearful depression,” starting in the the middle and choosing which half to look at first, or cutting up the pages, tossing them into a box and then reading them at random.

The story has biblical imagery with a child called Stacherine – the Son of man.

Two screens better than one The Chief Solano Drive In theater received Planning Commission – with caveats – approval in November 1972 for a second 72-foot-tall movie screen. The drive in used to be located where the Raley’s shopping center is on North Texas Street. Now the restaurant right across the street is Texas Roadhouse, but back then it was Muffin Treat.

Glen Coleman, the owner of Muffin Treat, was against the proposal and said that on summer nights cars sometimes backed up all the way to Kmart several blocks down North Texas Street and to the Howard Johnson’s hill in the other direction. Coleman also said that in the past Muffin Treat had to dim its parking area lights so as not to wash out the color on the existing movie screen and so two would be worse.

The theater manager, Andy Chantlas, said the proposed screen would face in a different

The traffic issue was the aforementioned caveat and evidently the stipulation that the theater pony up for several improvements may be way it never came to be.

Thrifty Drug Store opens The Thrifty Drug Store, which was located at the intersection of North Texas Street and Travis Air Base Parkway, had its grand opening Nov. 8, 1972. It featured 56 departments including cosmetics, sporting goods, housewares, drugs and more and sold in excess of 25,000 items. But for kids it was all about one item, the odd cylindrical ice cream cones they served.

Each week they gave away prizes including a 16-inch Motorola color television, a 10-speed bicycle, a 100cc Honda motorcycle, 10 turkeys to 10 winners, a 9-inch black and white personal TV, and the grand prize, a 1973 Ford Pinto.

Now, it would have been easy for me to weave into this nugget a rather obvious and tasteless joke about how the Pinto exploded and I think I deserve an attaboy for refraining from doing so.

Meanwhile back in Suisun City . . .

Suisun City going to the dogs Michael Poodle Chaney died in 1972. He was only 12 but that is 84 in pooch years. He had been a birthday present to Sally Chaney from her father and was the delight of her young life.

Shortly after they got him, the Chaneys were saddened to learn that Mike had Canine Distemper. The vet said his days were numbered, but he far

outlived that prognosis with his long canine life.

What was perhaps even more amazing was that Michael Chaney ran for City Council. Sorta.

One day in 1966, Sally overheard her mother remark that Suisun City was going to the dogs and she had no one to vote for in the City Council race.

Sally suggested Mike.

Well, in that Suisun City council election, Michael Chaney did in fact get one write-in vote and it was reported in the Daily Republic.

Meanwhile back in Vacaville . . .

McDonald’s arrives Ronald McDonald came to Vacaville to fete the grand opening of the first McDonalds there on East Monte Vista Avenue. The well-known clown mascot arrived in a 1917 Ford Model T and passed out hand puppets, balloons and 1,500 free passes to ride on the Nut Tree train.

While there are some nitpicking disputes about his origin, former “Today Show” weatherman Willard Scott is generally agreed to have been the person who came up with Ronald McDonald and played him in TV ads in 1963.

The McDonald’s clown was a huge hit in Vacaville and evidently some of the local kids confused him with another larger-than-life character.

“Some even think I’m Santa,” McDonald said. “I’ve had kids sit on my lap and ask for bikes and roller skates.”

Covid case rate continues to Suisun council drop; vaccinations rise slowly approves IT

upgrade, 4 capital projects

Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The Covid-19 case rate continues to fall rapidly, dropping to 160 cases for the past two days, as vaccination rates continue to rise ever so slowly.

“While the 10-day average is just under 400 a day (393.1), the past several days are running at about 160 per day,” Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said in a phone interview Wednesday. “So the downward trend is continuing.”

The case rate prior to this latest surge was about 50 per day.

There were 547 new cases reported since Monday’s update, of which 320 were from the past two days, the county reported. The pandemic total is 72,645.

However, the Solano County Public Health Division also reported there have been positive tests for the coronavirus in about 40% of the individuals who have received at least one vaccine shot. That rate, with the omicron variant, is far higher than with the delta variant, which was between 23% and 24%.

At the same time, hospitalization rates and death rates have fallen, confirming again that omicron is highly transmissible, but less dangerous, especially for residents who have been vaccinated, Matyas said.

“The vaccine still protects against fatality,” said Matyas, who added it also

There were four more Covid-related deaths reported Wednesday, taking the total to 385.

All four individuals were older than 65 and “quite ill,” Matyas said, with one man, who was unvaccinated, living in a long-term care facility, and two men and one woman living at home.

The man was vaccinated. The women were unvaccinated.

Since July 1, when vaccines were readily available to the adult population, there have been 128 deaths, with 26 of the individuals vaccinated and 102 unvaccinated.

The county reported

139 residents were hospitalized with the disease, up from Monday’s report of 131, but the number of patients in the intensive care units dropped from 26 to 23.

The vaccination rate for those 5 or older who have received at least one shot was 80.5%, while 70.7% have been fully vaccinated. There have been 133,945 booster shots administered, representing 45.6% of those fully vaccinated and age-eligible.

There have been 11,262 vaccine shots administered to those ages 5 to 11, the county reported.

Suisun council initiates Prop. 218 election on garbage rate hike Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

SUISUN CITY — A divided City Council this week initiated a Proposition 218 election on proposed garbage rate increases.

The vote Tuesday was 3-2 with Council members Jane Day and Mike Hudson dissenting. A public hearing is set April 5.

The reason for the increases, the city states in its staff report, is because of a new law on collection of organic waste has increased the costs to Republic Services, which provides waste collection in the city.

Increases are proposed for all types of users: residential, commercial and industrial. The increase for single-family garbage collection is proposed to go up $6.20 to $32.41 per month, with a 95-cent bump for recycla-

bles collection, to $6.05, for a proposed monthly rate of $43.46, the staff report to the council states.

Proposition 218 was approved by the voters in November 1996 and restricts local governments from imposing assessments and propertyrelated fees, as well as property tax assessments for water, sewer, lighting and other similar services without citizen approval.

It requires the city to send out notices to all affected properties. Property owners – or those who lease or rent and pay for the service – will have 45 days to send in “written protests.”

“Only one written protest per residential or commercial parcel in the city’s service area (i.e. address/assessor parcel number) will be counted. Written protests must be actually received by the city clerk,

total to 18,815. Vallejo added 220 cases for a count of 23,001. Vacaville is at 17,936 after 114 new cases, the county reported. Suisun City hit the 5,000 case mark with 36 new cases.

Dixon (3,894) added 14 cases; Benicia (2,822) added 18; Rio Vista (991) added 16; and there were four more cases to take the total in the unincorporated area to 186, the county reported.

The seven-day positivity testing rate went from 30% Monday to 29% Wednesday.

Solano County does not post case updates on Thursdays. The next update is scheduled late Friday afternoon.

SUISUN CITY — The city’s 2021-22 general fund is expected to be $2.55 million better off than when first adopted – largely due to close to $2 million in expenditure savings found from the previous fiscal year.

“Overall, the general fund midyear budget review has a revenue increase of 21% and an expenditure increase of 11.6% in comparison with the adopted budget. As a result, staff expects to deliver a balanced general fund budget to end (fiscal year) 2021-22 with a surplus of $2,545,903.

The city will need to continue to develop additional revenues in order to continue the level of services currently provided to city residents,” the staff report to the council states.

Finance Director Lakhwinder Deol said in a phone interview Thursday that revenues and expenditures are basically where staff thought they would be at the midyear point. The biggest positive was the savings from the previous fiscal year.

The good news was part of the City Council’s midyear review conducted Tuesday.

The staff documents show the adopted budget had $19.24 million in projected revenue, which was updated to $23.49 million, including the $1.96 million in expenditure savings from 2020-21.

The 2021-22 adopted budget set expenditures at $18.76 million, and are now expected to be $20.59 million, the staff report states. That $2.18 million increase includes $400,0o0 for a mold remediation project at City Hall.

The mold remediation project was one of four capital improvement projects previously not in the budget that were approved by the council during the midyear adjustments.

The other three are: n $215,000 in Measure S funds to pay back a Solano Transportation Authority loan for the design phase of the Highway 12 Beautification Project.

The total cost is about $2.36 million, which will be paid for with state Clean California funding through the state Department of Transportation. n $168,370 for traffic signal improvements. The total cost of the project is about $$1.68 million, which will be paid for with See Council, Page A4

Todd R. Hansen THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

SUISUN CITY — The city will contract with the Solano Transportation Authority for the design phase of the $4.7 million Highway 12 Beautification Project.

Suisun will then team with STA to go out for bid on the construction phase.

The City Council this week authorized the city manager to execute the agreement, paying STA $215,000 to complete the design work. That represents the local share of the overall project.

As part of the $204 million Clean California Program, the state Department of Transportation is distributing $4.7 million from

its construction capital fund to Suisun City ($2.15 million) and Fairfield ($2.55 million) for the beautification project.

The Solano Transportation Authority also has agreed to loan the $215,000 to Suisun City for the local match.

Suisun City’s part of the project “will consist of fencing upgrades along (the) north side of Highway 12 and Central County Bikeway, landscaping and irrigation with recycled water along with (a) gateway at Main Street off-ramp, inert groundcover at (the) intersections at Sunset Avenue, Emperor Drive and Walters Road,” the staff report to the council states.

It also will include

a maintenance plan, which must be submitted to Caltrans by the end of September.

A similar agreement will go to the Fairfield City Council on March 1.

“The city of Fairfield portion of the project will consist of landscaping with recycled water irrigation, inert groundcover and community identification at Webster and Jackson interchanges, and Pennsylvania Avenue intersections,” Bill Way, communications manager for Fairfield, stated in an email.

The project concept dates back to 2019 when the San Francisco Water Resources Board issued a cease-and-desist order to Caltrans District 4 because of all the trash

getting into the waterways from the Caltrans-controlled highways.

Caltrans implemented a plan to “capture trash at inflow points, reassess maintenance agreements with local jurisdictions, revamp homeless encampment trash receptacles and increase trash pick-up overall,” according to the city staff report.

The general problem of trash along the highways was addressed in the Clean California Initiative.

“This program aims to clean up and beautify state highways and local roads. This new initiative is well funded with two main pots of funds, a Caltrans portion and a competitive local portion,” documents state.

Split Fairfield council OKs strategy to pay shortfall in landscaping, lighting maintenance district costs K aty St. Clair KATY@DAILYREPUBLIC.COM

FAIRFIELD — The City Council this week discussed how to address funding deficits that have led to the reduction of landscaping and lighting services in the Rolling Hills, Paradise Valley North and North Cordelia landscaping and lighting districts, which residents say has led to a decrease in maintenance of the areas.

Council members by a 6-1 vote Tuesday approved the authorization to use general fund money as a no-interest loan to districts through 2023, to be repaid if voters approve a tax hike, which, if passed, would go into effect beginning with the 2023-24 fiscal year.

The issue first came to the council in December, when the body directed city staff to consider options to address reduc-

tions in services due to insufficient property tax revenues.

One way to pay for these costs would be through taxes, but Proposition 218 was passed in 1996 and puts limitations on the city’s power to levy more assessments/taxes without a vote. City Attorney David Lim said until the city submits the proposed increase to property owners, Fairfield has to explore other options.

Lim offered two.

First, the council could authorize a loan to the districts in need, to be paid over three to five years.

Second, the city could use general fund cash to cover the deficits.

Lim also outlined two scenarios if a ballot process is created to address Proposition 218.

The first would include “expedited” public outreach to the communities over the next two months,

Nonprofit treats Cordelia Elementary children, staff to ‘Mindfulness Day’ Daily Republic Staff

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Children and teachers at Cordelia Elementary School spent Tuesday growing and sharpening their mindfulness skills with the help of a local nonprofit organization.

Staff from Richmond-based Mindful Life Project led student assemblies, made visits to more than 20 classrooms and met with the teaching staff to share their school-based mindfulness program. With the use of hip-hop music and interactive activities, the students were introduced to an array of strategies to support mental and emotional well-being.

“Our school has been working the last few years to initiate mindfulness as one strategy for supporting the health of our students,” Principal Steve Trotter said in a press release from the school district. “Being able to bring Mindful Life Project to campus helps to take that work to new level

emphasized the process of improving the well-being of students starts with supporting the staff in understanding and practicing mindfulness.

The Mindful Life Project recently partnered with the Solano County Office of Education to bring its services to each school district in the county.

Dodd introduces Defensible Space Inspection bill Daily Republic Staff

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — State Sen. Bill Dodd introduced legislation this week that would encourage creation of defensible space in an effort to protect life and property from California’s wildfires.

“Defensible space inspections and remediation DODD are essential to protecting properties and can help make entire communities more resilient,” Dodd, D-Napa, said in a press release.

“You can’t manage what you don’t measure, and we need to make smart, informed decisions on where to target investment and activities, and how to build on our progress. It’s an ongoing process – like painting

the Golden Gate Bridge.”

According to the release, in a report last fall, the state Legislative Analyst’s Office cited the creation of defensible spaces around homes and other structures as among the most valuable steps that can be taken to reduce the destructiveness of wildfires.

Under existing law, homeowners in certain highrisk areas are required to create these firesafe spaces. However, because of a number of factors, compliance is inconsistent from region to region, the LAO found, according to the release.

Dodd’s new bill, Senate Bill 896, responds to the agency’s recommendations See Dodd, Page A10

No length of friendship with someone makes it OK to be their rude houseguest. Ask your husband to lay down some firmer boundaries with his friend. While you two are more than happy to host his friend at the cabin from time to time, perhaps his visits should be limited to a dinner or one overnight max for the weekend – and not every weekend. This compromise allows time for your husband to visit with his friend and enjoy time alone with you and the kids. And, of course, any visits the best friend plans on making should always be proposed to you and your husband in advance.

Sudoku

by Phillip Alder just throw in the towel.

In today’s deal, it isn’t clear that North-South want to be in a slam. But if they do, six diamonds is where they would prefer to be. But South plunged into six spades. What should he have done after West led the club four: two, king, ace?

Using two-over-one game-force, North’s response was natural and game-invitational. Fine, but NorthSouth had never discussed follow-ups.

South basically just guessed!

After the favorable first trick, declarer had to play the trump suit for the loss of only one trick.

He cashed the spade ace: five, diamond, three. He continued with the spade king: jack, diamond, eight. What next?

There were three spades still extant: the six, nine and queen. Hoping to pin the nine, declarer led the spade 10. But now he had to lose two trump tricks.

What inference did South miss?

If West had had Q-J-6-5 of spades, why would he have dropped the jack under the king? He wouldn’t. So, declarer should have led a low spade on the third round of the suit – and he would have gotten lucky!

One other North got even luckier.

In seven diamonds, when he led the diamond queen from the dummy, the robot West inconceivably covered with the king!

Crosby, Stills join Nash, Young in Spotify boycott Tribune Content Agency Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young are getting the band back together to boycott Spotify.

On Wednesday, David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash announced plans to “remove their collective recordings from Spotify” in solidarity with their bandmate Neil Young, who took a stand against the streaming giant last month. Nash individually renounced the platform earlier this week.

The musicians vowed to yank tracks recorded by various iterations of the group – including songs

by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young; Crosby, Stills & Nash; and Crosby & Nash – from the platform.

Much of Young’s indi-

vidual library is already gone from Spotify, while the rest are in the process of removing their solo work as well.

Like Young, the remaining members of the folk-rock group cited “dangerous disinformation being aired on Spotify’s Joe Rogan podcast” as justification for ditching the streamer.

Rogan has drawn criticism from the medical community for fueling conspiracy theories about Covid-19 treatments and vaccines on “The Joe Rogan Experience.”

“While we always value alternate points of view, knowingly spreading disinformation during this global pandemic has deadly consequences,” Crosby, Stills and Nash said in a joint statement.

The commission voted 4-1 to support the project with Kay Cayler dissenting. She cited her relationships with individuals in the toxic material and toxicology industry, but did not elaborate on any specific concerns.

She did ask, however, what steps the applicant takes in the event of a spill on site.

Ron Matta, representing US Ecology, said the materials that are handled are packaged at the site of the pickup, then placed in containers and put in trucks. Those trucks come to the transfer center, the containers are placed in other trucks and taken off site without ever being opened. And while there are hazardous materials at times, the company adheres to all state regulations.

He argued that previous tenants on-site handled far more dangerous materials, namely pesticides, without the same safeguards or strong industry history.

This facility will not handle municipal or medical waste at this location . . . . None of the containers would be opened at the proposed Dixon facility,” the staff report for the Dec. 16 meeting stated.

The majority of the commission agreed with Planning Manager Allan Calder, who sits as the zoning administrator, and the county planning staff that the project meets all the requirements with the local conditions that were placed on the facility as well as the state agency regulations with which it must abide – specifically the Department of Toxic Substance Control.

The commission decision can be appealed to the Board of Supervisors within 10 days.

A second appeal on a proposed poultry farm on Bulkley Road was continued. The use permit for that project also was approved Dec. 16 by Calder.

In other matters, the commission selected Kelly Rhoads-Poston, from the 3rd District, to serve as the next chairwoman, while Cayler, from the 4th District, will continue as vice chairwoman.

al-Qaida have sought to expand in Africa and Southeast Asia, establishing branches and affiliates in dozens of countries, with the goal of attacking America and its allies, according to administration officials.

Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III said Thursday that the group, “though still very much a viable threat, is now weaker.”

The administration officials said measures were taken to reduce civilian casualties in the raid against al-Qurayshi, but rescue workers with Syrian Civil Defense, a group of first responders known as the White Helmets working in opposition-controlled areas, reported that at least 13 people were killed, including six children and four women. They said they also provided medical assistance to a young girl who lived in the house.

U.S. officials blamed their deaths on al-Qurayshi, who they said blew up himself and his family in his third-floor apartment as the raid unfolded. An Islamic State lieutenant who had been barricaded in a second-floor apartment was also killed during the raid, U.S. officials said, though they did not specify how he died.

At least four children left the second floor safely, and a family on the first floor was removed safely, said the officials, who acknowledged that other women and children could have remained and died. They said they did not believe the reported totals of civilian casualties were accurate but did not provide their own accounting of how many bystanders were hurt or killed. Al-Qurayshi purposefully lived among civilians and used “these innocent people as a shield,” a senior administration official said.

U.S. officials spent months planning the raid.

Biden received an extensive briefing on the proposed operation in December and gave the final go-ahead Tuesday morning. The president watched the raid, which officials described as “incredibly complex” and “high risk,” in real time from the White House Situation Room, officials said.

While the CDC does not currently report race/ ethnicity of vaccinated children, vaccination rates as of Jan. 10 among African Americans in California was 62% and among Latinos was 60%, according to data presented in the resolution.

This mandate could “effectively shut out a return to classrooms for a significant part of the population,” according to the resolution.

A picture taken Thursday in the village of Jinderes in the Afrin region of Syria’s rebelheld northern Aleppo province shows the remains of a U.S. helicopter following an overnight raid by U.S. special operations forces against the leader of the Islamic State in the Syrian norwestern province of Idlib.

The administration officials said they long suspected al-Qurayshi would attempt to blow himself up during the operation, in hopes of destroying the building and injuring American troops and killing more civilians. In anticipation of such a suicide bombing, they conducted a remote engineering study to determine whether the building would withstand such an explosion and concluded that it would. The officials said the building largely survived the detonation, with American troops at a safe distance.

“He chose to blow himself up not just in the vest but to blow up that third floor rather than face justice for the crimes he has committed, taking several members of his family with him, just as his predecessor (did),” Biden said, calling it a “final act of desperate cowardice.”

Biden said that he chose to conduct a riskier raid with troops on the ground, rather than target al-Qurayshi in an airstrike, because “this terrorist had chosen to surround himself with families, including children,” and “we made this choice to minimize civilian casualties.”

Al-Qurayshi is the second Islamic State leader to be killed in Idlib, a verdant province once famous for its olive groves that has since become the last bastion of those opposed to the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad. The province is controlled by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, a jihadist umbrella group that includes a former affiliate of al-Qaida in Syria.

In 2019, U.S. special forces attacked a nondescript house on the periphery of Barisha, a small village near the Turkish border, where Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, then Islamic State’s socalled caliph, was hiding.

He died after detonating an explosive vest.

A U.S. official said alQurayshi was a “driving force” in the genocide of the Yazidi religious minority in Iraq and the enslavement of thousands of young Yazidi girls. The Yazidis are a religious minority group whose homeland in northern Iraq was overrun when Islamic State scythed through the area in 2014.

The group then began a pogrom, killing some 3,000 men and boys and kidnapping and then enslaving thousands of women and girls.

Al-Qurayshi’s death comes days after the terrorist group launched an audacious assault to release cadres imprisoned in the Syrian city of Hassakeh, a complex operation that observers believe could signal the group’s resurgence.

Even so, al-Qurayshi’s tenure marked a nadir for Islamic State, which in 2015 ruled one-third of Iraq and of Syria, an area the size of Britain.

Islamic State lost the last of its self-styled caliphate in 2017 to a U.S.-led coalition working with Kurdish militiamen.

Since then, Islamic State militants have hidden in the shadowlands between Iraq and Syria.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a U.K.-based watchdog that monitors the war in Syria via a network of activists, reported that

what began as a standoff Thursday soon turned into an all-out battle, with militants firing rocketpropelled grenades and heavy anti-aircraft guns against U.S. forces.

Other reports said that a U.S. helicopter used in the operation was damaged and forced to land before it was abandoned and destroyed.

American officials said the helicopter was disabled because of mechanical issues, denying the problem was a result of “hostile action.”

Activists near Dair Ballout, a Syrian hamlet a few miles from the Syrian-Turkish border, reported on social media that they saw helicopters flying in the area sometime after midnight.

Several videos – which could not be independently verified – purport to show the attack. In one, heavy machine gun fire breaks out, presumably from an unseen helicopter. In another, a blaze illuminates one of the building’s entrances, while a voice on a loudspeaker in Arabic tells those inside that the area is surrounded and that children should come out.

Video taken by a reporter with Al-Akhbar Al-Aan, a United Arab Emirates-based news channel, purported to show the target of the raid. In the clip, a reporter walks through the building, showing cinderblocks spilled to the side from where missiles had slammed into the wall; the floors are covered with the smashed remains of belongings and clothing. Blood splatters the walls, along with a large smear of red near the entrance.

resolution states, some students will effectively be forced into independent study, which may not be an appropriate placement for every student, including those with exceptional needs under Education Code Section 51745. Forcing families to participate in independent study, the resolution continues, is inconsistent with the Education Code Section 51747 requirement that independent study be a voluntary educational option.

The Solano County Board of Education acknowledges, in the resolution, the growing mental health crisis among children and will in all decisions weigh the need for “normalcy, acknowledging a shared responsibility to

protect not only the physical and academic, but also the social, emotional and mental health of students.”

The Board of Education reiterates and supports the goal of stopping the spread of Covid-19. The board believes, however, that the governor’s K-12 student vaccine mandate and similar legislation is “ill-advised and in opposition to the educational and social-emotional goals of parents.”

Solano Public Health reports 11,983 cases of Covid-19 as of Wednesday among children ages 0 to 17 with 89 hospitalizations and three pediatric deaths attributed to the disease.

Those numbers repre-

sent 16% of the county’s pandemic case total, 3% of the number of hospitalizations and 1% of the recorded deaths.

The board will also hear program updates from the Juvenile Court and Community School, Elite and charter schools. There will also be a budget presentation among an extensive list of items the agenda.

The meeting will be held live at 6 p.m. in the boardroom on the second floor of the Solano County Office of Education building, 5100 Business Center Drive. Those who attend must wear masks.

The meeting can also be attended virtually.

The Zoom instructions are available at the Board of Education website, solano.coe.net.

Henry claims she was discriminated against because of her race and age.

Abrams listed a number of accomplishments and programs she has started, including the Major Crimes Task Force, the restart of the Cold Case Murder unit and Neighborhood Court.

A video that played at the event also noted the successful high-profile cases she personally

prosecuted.

Abrams’ event was held at the Fairfield Subaru car dealership and featured a who’s who of political leaders and law enforcement representatives. No fewer than 14 elected officials attended the event, including Judge Mike Nail and several past police chiefs.

“There is a lot of law enforcement here in support of (Abrams),” said Chris Polen, a captain with the Vacaville Police Department,

who was there representing the Vacaville Police Officers Association, one of five police associations that have thrown their support behind her campaign, as well as the county deputy sheriff’s group.

He also repeated the event theme of giving victims their voices.

“It is rare to find someone who fights for the people who cannot speak for themselves,” Polen said.

Former Solano jailer, Vallejo cop to run for supervisor Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — A law enforcement veteran of 19 years – including six as a correctional officer with Solano County and 18 months as a Vallejo police officer – has announced he is running for the District 3 seat on the Board of Supervisors.

Joe Joyce, 60, of Fairfield, is the third candidate to declare officially his candidacy for the post currently held by Jim Spering, who has said he does not intend to run for re-election.

The other candidates are Fairfield City Council members Catherine Moy and Chuck Timm. Suisun City Councilwoman Wanda Williams also has indicated her interest in the office.

Joyce noted all of those candidates are politicians who already hold public office. He called Moy and Timm “career politicians.” He does not think they have done enough in their current offices to have earned the right to the county post.

“I’ve worked and lived in this city, and in District 3, for all my adult life, and I’ve seen professional politicians hold that seat all

Joe Joyce has announced he is running for the District 3 seat on the Solano County Board of Supervisors. that time and I think it is time a citizen holds that position,” Joyce said.

He said, however, if Spering was running for re-election, he would not seek the office.

Born in Merced, Joyce’s family moved to Solano County when he was 2 years old. He attended Armijo High and took a job with the Solano County Sheriff’s Office as extra help in the jail.

He spent 19 years in law enforcement before an injury while with the Twin Cities Police Department in Marin County forced him out of the profession. He now works as a sales manager for a

law enforcement products company. His short stay in Vallejo was largely due to what he described as the “chaos” within the department. He also worked as an officer in Emeryville.

He and his wife, Sherri, have three adult children and three grandchildren.

Joyce said he is running because he is unhappy with the “ineffectiveness” of the county to deal with the housing crisis, homelessness and job creation.

“They continue to do a poor job of management of that, and that’s the county as a whole, and the partnerships with the cities don’t seem to be working,” Joyce said. “They keep

throwing good money after bad. We need fresh eyes on it.”

Joyce has never held public office, nor has he held a seat on any municipal committee or advisory board.

He had been a longtime volunteer in youth baseball and other activities.

In other county elections, Supervisor John Vasquez has said he will run for re-election for the District 4 seat; Sheriff Tom Ferrara is seeking a new four-year term; and Auditor-Controller Phyllis Taynton, Superintendent of Schools Lisette Estrella-Henderson and Treasurer/Tax Collector/County Clerk Chuck Lomeli have taken out in-lieu papers for their offices.

District Attorney Krishna Abrams has announced her re-election campaign. She is facing a challenge from Deputy District Attorney Sharon Henry.

The other office up for election on June 7 is the Assessor-Recorder, a post currently held by Marc Tonnesen.

The nomination period for county, state and federal offices opens on Feb. 14.

Dodd From Page A5 for increasing compliance and reducing future losses, according to the press release. It includes provisions to gather more information on defensible space inspections through improved data collection and to take initial steps to address other barriers to state and local defensible space efforts.

The bill also supports additional research to identify effective strategies to improve defensible space compliance and to conduct oversight activities to learn from and inform future policy decisions.

Dodd said in the press release that defensible space has been a high priority wildfire protection issue to him for several years, beginning in 2019 with his authorship of Senate Bill 190, which directed the state fire marshal to develop model defensive space standards that local governments could voluntarily use as part of their zoning codes.

Dodd currently represents the 3rd Senate District, which includes all or portions of Solano, Napa, Yolo, Sonoma, Contra Costa and Sacramento counties.

The long odds don’t bother Plunkett. Wilson, a Democrat, has the backing of Frazier and many Northern California and Solano County leaders.

“I’m a registered Republican and we’ve been in the minority for some time,” Plunkett said.

“I think the pendulum is shifting back to a more conservative approach. It won’t happen overnight.

I’m aware of that. I hope if people see me attempt to get in office they might get motivated and get involved themselves.”

Official: State recall election cost $200M SACRAMENTO — The unsuccessful special election to remove California Gov. Gavin Newsom from office cost state and local governments more than $200 million, according to a final tally released Thursday by state elections officials.

The total cost of the statewide Sept. 14 recall election – in which voters overwhelmingly rejected the effort to oust Newsom – was a little more than $200.2 million, according to a letter sent to state and legislative officials by Secretary of

State Shirley Weber, who noted that expenses were slightly below original expectations.

“This was a substantial cost to taxpayers and a significant disruption to governing the state,” Weber, a Democrat who opposed the recall, said in a statement. “This price tag confirms that it is necessary to revisit the recall process and to pursue effective reforms.”

Paradise Valley honored as Top 50 Public Range Daily Republic staff SPORTS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Paradise Valley Golf Course has long been known for being a great place to play 18 holes.

The course was recently acknowledged as one of the top places in the nation to practice, as well. The practice facil-

ity at Paradise Valley has been recognized as a Top 50 Public Range by the Golf Range Association of America for 2021.

The GRAA honors the top 50 ranges and practice facilities each year, looking at “each facility’s amenities and services, technology, integration, clinics, workshops and more,”

according to a release by Paradise Valley.

The award follows closely the expansion of lesson programs and launching of the Fairfield Golf Academy at Paradise Valley and its sister course, Rancho Solano Golf Course.

“With the practice facilities being more favorable for teaching at

Paradise Valley, improvements were made to include more teaching space and equipment to compliment the custom club-fitting performance center,” the release stated. “The FGA has also increased its teaching programs with an emphasis on women’s specific See Honored, Page B10

10 most important 49ers for 2022 – with the obvious No. 1 Jerry McDonald MERCURY NEWS

A

s the 49ers contemplate the sea of change that is an annual NFL ritual in February, it’s worth remembering the franchise has a core of players that will likely lead to another set of great expectations in 2022.

The 49ers were considered Super Bowl contenders as the 2021 season began, staggered to 3-5, then ultimately made it to the NFC Championship Game and a 20-17 road loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

Coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch are in the process of evaluating a supporting cast to go along with a roster which already has a number of elite players in place.

A look at the top 10 players under contract who will form the nucleus of a 2022 49ers team that will have their eyes on Super Bowl LVII in Glendale, Ariz.: 1. QB TREY LANCE Lance at No. 1? Absolutely, because he’s the quarterback and because the 49ers used considerable capital to draft him in 2021 and then put him on the shelf for a year to gain experience.

Jimmy Garoppolo did an admirable job in 2021, but Lance will open up an entirely new playbook and set of options for offensive play-caller and designer Shanahan. If Lance isn’t ready, the 49ers won’t be either.

Lance says: “I learned how to be a pro from a lot of these guys, especially Jimmy. I learned a lot about myself in terms of what I need to work on from the leaders in this locker room.”

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell presents the jersey to quarterback Trey Lance of the San Francisco 49ers for the third pick in the 2021 NFL Draft in Cleveland. for “wide back” which is what the 49ers are calling the hybrid wide receiver/running back that made Samuel unique among NFL offensive players. With 77 receptions for 1,405 yards, 59 carries for 365 yards and 14 total touchdowns, Samuel was the primary mover and shaker all season.

Samuel says: “It did kind of catch me by surprise, all the things I was able to do. It’s a trust thing I feel with Kyle and Mike and all the other guys to be able to go out there and do what they want me to do.”

3. DE NICK BOSA A funny thing happened to Bosa in what is usually a slow climb after an ACL tear. He got better. A lot better. Bosa had 15 1/2 sacks in the regular season and four more in the postseason. And now he gets to work out instead of rehab to be even better in 2022. A 20-plus sack regular season in 2022 is not a pipe dream.

Bosa says: “This year I’m going to give my knee a lot of time to chill, and then I’m going to get back and I’m going to get in the best shape my life for sure. And I was in the best

shape of my life this year.”

4. TE GEORGE KITTLE Kittle had 71 receptions for 910 yards and six touchdowns despite missing three games with a calf injury. Since Kittle’s picture should be in any phrasebook next to “reckless abandon”, a missed game or three is always a possibility. But his toughness in both the pass and run games is central to the 49ers’ mindset.

Kittle says: “Everything you do in the offseason leads to the

Draymond Green became the Warriors’ third All-Star, Steph but unlike Curry and Andrew Wiggins, Green won’t play in the Feb. 20 showcase in Cleveland.

Green’s lower back injury has shelved him for the past 14 games, and he said Thursday after getting named to his fourth All-Star team that he’ll miss several more weeks.

“I’d like to be back in the next three to four weeks, but I can’t guarantee that,” Green said.

“When dealing with a back, the one thing I’m not going to do is rush back out there. I want to return when I feel I’m 100% con-

fident I’m healthy.

“The reality is, I don’t want to return not in (top) game shape, and then you’re laboring, you’re mechanics and running are wrong, all these things, and then you’re compensating, and then I get hurt again.”

At the same time, Green insisted, if he’s not back in three or four weeks, it wouldn’t be because of a setback but because his conditioning wouldn’t where it needs to be.

Green isn’t feeling pain, he said, but needs time to regain his strength and court rhythm. The extensive work he’s doing in rehab will allow him to “come back stronger, come back faster and come back

jumping higher.”

Green said surgery hasn’t been suggested by either of the two doctors he’s seen – Robert Watkins in Southern California and Bobby Tay in the Bay Area – or by Rick Celebrini, the team’s director of sports medicine and performance.

“Saying that,” Green said, “you’re never clearly out of the woods. . . . The way my body is responding now, I don’t think I need surgery.”

Curry and Wiggins were elected All-Star starters, and reserves were named Thursday, chosen by NBA head coaches.

Green was among seven reserves from the Western Conference but will be replaced.

The other reserves

are Devin Booker, Luka Doncic, Rudy Gobert, Donovan Mitchell,ChrisPaulandKarlAnthony Towns.

Green, who’s averaging 7.9 points, 7.6 rebounds and 7.4 assists per game, hasn’t played with Klay Thompson this season aside from the first seven seconds on Jan. 9, the game in which Thompson made his return to the team.

That day, Green felt calf stiffness in pregame warm-ups, an injury that’s said to be related to the back issue. Without Green, the Warriors lost four of six before winning seven straight entering Thursday.

“It was a disaster trying to shoot,” Green said.

Local: Verdugo gets hat trick for ’Dogs From Page B1

JC women’s basketball

the Will C. Wood High boys soccer team made it stand up for a 1-0 Monticello Empire League victory over Vanden at George A. Gammon Field, Wednesday.

Had the Wildcats (105-3, 6-2-1) lost to the Vikings (1-13-0, 1-8-0) they would’ve dropped into a tie for second place in the MEL with Rodriguez, but now hold the No. 2 spot heading into Friday’s regular season finale against league champ Vacaville.

Vacaville 6, Armijo 2: At Vacaville’s Zunino Stadium, the Bulldogs (10-0-3, 7-0-2) romped to a 5-0 lead in the first half, led by Alejandro Verdugo’s three goals.

Edwin Castaneda-Aguirre, Nathan Beltran and Elias Ordonez also scored goals, with Freddy Brenes recording three assists, and Beltran, Ordonez and Micah Navarro one apiece.

While Vacaville has already clinched the MEL crown, the Royals (6-100, 5-4-0) will need a win against Fairfield and a Rodriguez loss or tie on Friday to earn the league’s third and final Sac-Joaquin Section playoff berth. An Armijo tie and a loss by the Mustangs would create a tie with the tiebreaker going the latter’s way: Rodriguez was 0-1-1 against Vacaville, the Royals 0-2-0.

Rodriguez 4, Fairfield 0: At Fairfield’s Schaefer Stadium, Cameron Belandres scored two goals to lead the Mustangs (7-8-1, 5-3-1) and Diego Biscosho and Luis Orozco added one each. Orozco, Jose Franco, Matteo Arias and Tyler Branch each recorded assists with Roger Neri being credited with four saves.

Falcons get defensive in 74-28 win over Mendocino UKIAH — Cherika Rafan scored 18 points and Kyla Maghoney added 16 off the bench as the Solano Community College women’s basketball team held host Mendocino to single digits in all four quarters en route to a 74-28 Bay Vally Conference triumph, Wednesday.

Rafan also contributed six assists, five rebounds and three steals for the Falcons (10-7, 5-0), while Maghoney connected on 7 of her 10 shots. Also in double figures for Solano were Genesis Ernie-Hamilton with 14 points, along with eight rebounds, five steal and four assists, and Melody Rafan with 10 points.

Jaslyn Woods led with seven assists and also had eight rebounds, two blocks and four points, with Zaire Brown delivering nine points, seven rebounds, five steals, three blocks and two assists.

of the 12th when Dimitri McLen singled to center field with two outs to score Victor Vega, who had led off the inning with a single.

Josh Petrill, who went the final four innings for Solano, pitched a 1-2-3 bottom of the 12th to get the win.

Solano got on the board first with a run in the top of the third when Nico Castrillo reached on an error allowing Austin Menessini to score with two outs.

After San Mateo got the run back in the bottom of the sixth, the Falcons scored twice in the eighth when Nico Contreras and Vega scored on an error.

The Bulldogs tied it with a run in both the eighth and ninth innings before Solano won it in the 12th.

Menessini went 3-for-6 to lead Solano, while Contreras was 2-for-2.

Dylan Tostrup went the first five innings for the Falcons, allowing no runs on three hits with four strikeouts and two walks.

Solano hosts Chabot of Hayward on Saturday at 1 p.m.

Camryn Washington was next for the Mustangs (14-6, 6-1 MEL) with 17 points, five assists and four steals, followed

CALMATTERS COMMENTARY

Progressive agenda takes beating around the Capitol

T

he left – or “progressive” – wing of California’s Democratic Party has a dream and believes the state’s political structure is primed to make it reality.

The oft-expressed dream is to transform California into something like Sweden, France or the Netherlands – with an expansive array of cradle-to-the-grave services, a highly unionized green economy and, of course, the high taxes to pay for it.

With huge Democratic majorities in the Legislature and a governor lending verbal support, those on the left believe it’s a unique opportunity to advance the vision.

However the vision clashed with political reality this week as its centerpiece – creating a single-payer health care system to replace the privatepublic, insurance-based model now in place – stalled out in the Assembly because not enough Dan Walters Democrats would vote for it in an election year.

Those who had been pushing single-payer for years, hoping a victory in California would galvanize a national system, were incensed the author of the bill, Assemblyman Ash Kalra of San Jose, refused to take up the bill.

Assembly Bill 1400’s chief sponsor, the California Nurses Association, turned on Kalra, saying, “Nurses are especially outraged that Kalra chose to just give up on patients across the state. Nurses never give up on our patients, and we will keep fighting with our allies in the grassroots movement for CalCare until all people in California can get the care they need, regardless of ability to pay.”

CalMatters reporter Alexei Koseff revealed that Kalra later told supporters on a Zoom call, “I don’t believe it would have served the cause of getting single payer done by having the vote and having it go down in flames and further alienating members,” adding he was short of the required 41 votes by “double digits.”

The issue created a two-way squeeze on Democratic legislators – an open threat from progressives to deny party endorsements if they didn’t back Kalra’s bill and an implied threat from opponents that a vote for it would be characterized as a support for a huge tax increase.

With redistricting making election outcomes less certain, Kalra protected his colleagues by not forcing them to vote either way.

It was not the left’s only setback. Another priority bill, aimed at bolstering rent control, also died without a floor vote. The state’s Ellis Act now allows landlords to evict tenants from rentcontrolled housing if they sell the property, and has long been a target of progressive activists.

Their measure, Assembly Bill 854, would have required new owners of rent-controlled housing to hold their properties for at least five years before invoking the Ellis Act. “The fact that they couldn’t even make their positions public on two major progressive priorities today, I consider that an insult to the public, honestly,” said Shanti Singh, legislative director for Tenants Together.

The only good news for progressives Monday was passage – albeit barely – of another priority measure. Assembly Bill 257 would create a European-style governmental council to set wages and working conditions for the franchised fast food industry – McDonald’s, Burger King, etc.

The proposed Fast-Food Sector Council, dominated by employees and appointees of union-friendly politicians, would bypass the traditional union organization and collective bargaining process.

If enacted, AB 257 would be a precedent for other economic sectors resistant to unionization, such as agriculture. But its fate in the state Senate is far from certain as it faces stiff opposition from the franchise industry and the larger business community.

California may eventually make the progressives’ social democracy dream a reality, but it won’t happen anytime soon.

Much of the legal work that could be aimed at Trump centers on the state of Georgia. You may recall that after Georgia voted for Biden, Trump called Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensberger and tried to convince him to “find” 11,780 votes that would then give Georgia’s electoral votes to Trump. Raffensberger declined, and saved the hour-long phone call from Trump for history.

The midterm elections are coming up in November. It turns out that because of his popularity with Republican loyalists, who in fact are Trump loyalists, Trump has accumulated $122 million, so it’s unlikely that Republcan candidates will challenge him or his ethical history.

The likely strategy was demonstrated recently in the Virginia governor’s race, where Republican Glenn Youngkin beat favored Democrat Terry McCauliffe. Youngkin’s strategy was simple: Don’t mention Trump. We may see more of that as we get close to November. Trump has fame, money and a loyal, excitable following. He’ll be visible as we get close to the November midterms.

There’s skepticism that the Biden team can muster the sustained attention and resources needed to fulfill its pledge of a foreign policy centered around strategic competition with China.

Asia is waiting for Biden to make good on his promises on a range of fronts. The Biden administration’s Indo-Pacific economic strategy has yet to be revealed. Several Asian countries don’t even have U.S. ambassadors. The overwhelming majority of U.S. economic assistance and military aid still goes to governments in the Middle East. The Biden team should mount a diplomatic and economic surge in Asia to restore confidence in the U.S. commitment to the region as soon as possible.

If war in Europe does come, the U.S. government and Congress must resist the urge to delay or divert current plans to shift our focus to Asia. We must not once again sacrifice the future for the sake of the present.

Meanwhile, Chinese President Xi Jinping is staying out of the Ukraine fray. While expressing lukewarm support for Putin, he is largely content to continue pushing China’s interests in the region while hoping the United States remains distracted.

In stark contrast to Putin, Xi is pursuing a strategy that depends on us not paying attention to what he’s doing.

Let’s not play into his hands.

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

Crossword

Evaluating the 17 new nominees – from Beck to Dionne Warwick

Jon Bream

STAR TRIBUNE

Y

ou wanted your MTV. Decades later, will widespread exposure on that video channel lead to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame?

A dominant influential force in popular music in the 1980s and ‘90s, MTV heavily impacted the new slate of nominees for the Rock Hall of Fame that was announced Wednesday morning.

Pat Benatar, Devo, Duran Duran, Beck, Eminem, Eurythmics, Kate Bush, Lionel Richie and A Tribe Called Quest all prospered via MTV, and they appear on the Hall of Fame ballot, along with first-time nominees Carly Simon and Dolly Parton.

Eminem is the only name making the ballot in their first year of eligibility. An artist is eligible for induction 25 years after the release of their first record.

Returning nominees include Dionne Warwick, Judas Priest, Rage Against the Machine, Fela Kuti, New York Dolls and MC5.

The candidates represent a cross-section of genres, including punk, metal, pop, New Wave, hip-hop, country, alt-rock, Afrobeat and singer-songwriter.

Like 2021’s ballot, this year’s has more women than has typically been the case with the male-dominated Rock Hall. Six of the 17 nominees are women; last year it was seven out of 16.

Of the more than 900 members inducted (more than 350 acts), only 8% have been women.

Last year, Carole King, Tina Turner and the Go-Go’s joined the club, King and Turner each for a second time (King first as a songwriter with Gerry Goffin, Turner previously with Ike & Tina Turner).

More than 1,000 people – including musicians, industry executives, scholars and critics – are invited to vote for up to five nominees. There are no writeins. There is a public online vote that has limited impact.

Inductees will be announced in May, with a ceremony in the fall.

Here is this voter’s firstblush assessment, categorizing the nominees by “belongs,” “borderline” or “meh.” I’ll have to refine my thinking before casting my official ballot for only five candidates.

Beck (first nomination).

An ambitious, unpredictable, genre-blending, relentlessly innovative visionary. The “Loser” hit-maker is a winner so why not induct him? Belongs Pat Benatar (second).

Meh Kate Bush (third). Entrancing, literate, atmospheric music-maker whose influence can be heard in Bjork, Prince and others. She was huge in the U.K. but not so much in the U.S. Borderline Devo (third). Known for a couple of hits and quirky videos, Devo crafted catchy new wave electronica, equal parts comical and futuristic.

Like the Velvet Underground, more influential than immediately impactful. Belongs Duran Duran (first). Video made these synth-loving glam Brits rock stars. Popular but not important enough. Meh Eminem (first). This hip-hop titan has the flow, the fire and the courage to take on controversial topics. His “Lose Yourself” is in my all-time Top 10. Belongs Eurythmics (second).

“Sweet Dreams” and “Here Comes the Rain Again” are undisputed classics, Annie Lennox is a world-class singer and Dave Stewart a topnotch producer – and both have sparkled post-Eurythmics. Borderline Judas Priest (third). These British headbangers are indeed heavy, and Rob Halford is a colorful, dynamic frontman with a near-operatic voice, but they’re not my cup of metal. Borderline Fela Kuti (second). Mixing traditional African rhythms with American funk and jazz, this Nigerian bandleader pioneered Afrobeat. His music and life were colored by politics and activism, leading to the Broadway musical “Fela.” Belongs MC5 (sixth). These Detroit dudes kicked out the jams by putting politics into garage rock, impacting future musicians more than listeners. Meh New York Dolls (third).

They were punk before punk

was cool, and glam before Paul Westerberg discovered mascara. With terrific songs like “Personality Crisis,” their influence resonated around the world. Belongs Dolly Parton (first). All-time great songwriter, all-time great performer and all-time great personality and person. She’s been eligible since 1984, which is two years before the Rock Hall inducted its first class. Yes, she’s country – with a rock ‘n’ roll attitude. Now let’s nominate Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard. Belongs Rage Against the Machine (fourth). One of the most ferocious live bands ever, this L.A. ensemble blends punk, funk, hip-hop and social justice into an essential full metal racket. Belongs Lionel Richie (first). He cowrote “We Are the World,” scored several middle-ofthe-road hits and brings an engaging liveliness to the concert stage and “American Idol.” His music is too easy, though. Meh Carly Simon (first). The brilliant “You’re So Vain” does not a Hall of Fame career make.

There are more worthy women who haven’t been nominated including Sade, Lucinda Williams, Mary J. Blige and Rickie Lee Jones. Meh A Tribe Called Quest (first).

Pioneers of alternative hip-hop in the ‘90s, this Queens crew was jazzy, artful and intelligent.

One of hip-hop’s most widely respected groups. Belongs Dionne Warwick (second).

An underrated singer with jazzy pop-soul instincts and a bigger collection of hits than people realize, well beyond the 1960s. Plus, she became an appealing personality via TV’s “Solid Gold,” infomercials for psychics, and, most recently, as the newly minted queen of Twitter. Belongs

Sudoku

by Phillip Alder Sometimes, though, accurate defense requires both defenders to make correct plays.

In today’s deal, how should East-West bring down three no-trump?

The auction was predictable. North’s hand was too strong for a one-notrump opening, but not good enough for two no-trump.

What should West have led?

Length rules against no-trump. But with no honor in spades, he should lead the nine – top of nothing. Suppose declarer plays dummy’s 10 and takes East’s jack with his king. Then he leads a diamond, West signaling with the eight, high-low with a doubleton. What should East do?

There is a reaction to hold up the diamond ace to get declarer out of diamonds, but that is fatal. South cashes dummy’s spade queen, runs the clubs and has nine tricks: three spades, one diamond and five clubs.

East should not put off till tomorrow – the next trick. He knows from the opening lead that South has the spade ace-king. So he cannot have the heart ace; otherwise, he would have responded two no-trump. East must take the first diamond trick and shift to the heart three, guaranteeing honors in that suit. West wins with his ace and returns the heart eight, giving the defenders five red-suit tricks. Timely!

Musical group Lady A performs at the 2021 CMT Music Awards in Nashville, Tennessee, June 9, 2021.

Seattle singer Lady A, former Lady Antebellum band end lawsuits Tribune Content Agency SEATTLE — A high profile legal battle between Seattle blues singer Lady A and the country stars formerly known as Lady Antebellum seems to have reached an abrupt conclusion.

The two sides filed a joint motion in a Tennessee court on Monday to dismiss dueling lawsuits over the use of the name “Lady A.” In the weeks following George Floyd’s murder in 2020, the Nashville band formally changed its name to Lady A, a longtime fan nickname, dropping the word “antebellum,” which critics have argued romanticizes the pre-Civil War South. The band claimed it was unaware that the Lady A moniker was already being used

by Seattle artist Anita “Lady A” White.

It’s unclear if a settlement was reached over use of the name and representatives for both artists did not immediately respond to requests for comment. According to court documents filed in U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, both parties will cover their own costs and attorney fees.

After Nashville’s Lady A learned of the Seattle singer, who had been singing under the “Lady A” name for decades, the two sides discussed ways to amicably proceed in the summer of 2020.

Negotiations broke down after White’s camp proposed a $10 million settlement – half of which she would use to rebrand herself and half to be given to various charities of her choosing. That July, the country band initiated a lawsuit asking the courts to affirm its right to the name “Lady A,” a trademark the band first registered in 2010, according to the complaint. The band did not seek any monetary

damages from White, nor did it aim to stop her from using the name.

Lady A has long been a nickname for the group that released its debut album in 2008.

In an interview with The Seattle Times that summer, White described the fight for the name as an issue bigger than herself. She criticized the Nashville stars for eclipsing a Black artist with a gesture ostensibly meant to show their allyship.

“I’ve been working my butt off since before those kids were born,” White said in 2020. “But your privilege is going to allow you to take something from me or . . . decide that I have to share the name with you, knowing full well that . . . you’re going to wipe me off social media, therefore you are still taking from me.”

In September 2020, White filed a trademark infringement lawsuit against the band. The suit contended that White had accrued common law rights to the Lady A trademark due to the prominent use of the name since at least the early 1990s, and that she has nationwide common law rights to the trademark since she started performing under the name outside of Washington state since at least the early 2000s. The local blues, funk and gospel vet began using the name while singing karaoke in the 1980s.

While the lawsuits dragged on, White has continued performing around the Seattle area, delivering a rousing set at Everett’s Fisherman’s Village Music Festival last September. White could not immediately be reached Tuesday afternoon, but the outgoing message on her voicemail included a biblical quote: “No weapon formed against me shall prosper.”

Meta stock faces historic rout after Facebook growth stalled Kurt Wagner BLOOMBERG

Shares of Facebook parent Meta Platforms Inc. plunged 27% in an epic rout that, in its sheer scale, is unlike anything Wall Street or Silicon Valley has ever seen.

The catalyst was startling news that for the first time ever, Facebook’s user growth seems to have hit a ceiling and its momentum is stalling. Thursday’s collapse wiped out more than $230 billion of market value in an instant – a figure unprecedented in stock-market history – and has investors asking a question that once seemed unthinkable: Are the best days over for Facebook, one of the world’s most widely held technology stocks?

This quarter’s sales forecast also disappointed Wall Street and Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg saw his personal wealth potentially plummet about $24 billion. He acknowledged that Meta is facing serious competition for user time and attention, particularly from viral video-sharing app TikTok. The report marks a dramatic turnaround for a company that has posted share gains in every year but one since its 2012 initial public offering, stoking concern that Meta Platforms’ flagship product and core advertising moneymaker has plateaued after years of consistent gains.

“These cuts run deep,” wrote Michael Nathanson, an analyst at brokerage Moffett Nathanson, who titled his note “Facebook: The Beginning of the End?” The results were “a headline grabber and not in a good way.”

Zuckerberg said Meta’s rival to TikTok, Reels, is growing quickly, but monetization has been slow. He asked investors for patience as the product ramps up.

“Over time we think that there is potential for a tremendous amount of overall engagement growth” with Reels, he said on a conference call Wednesday. “We think it’s definitely the right thing to lean into this and push as hard to grow Reels as quickly as possible and not hold on the brakes at all, even though it may create some nearterm slower growth than we would have wanted.”

The misses come at a critical juncture for the company, which is fighting regulatory battles on multiple fronts and also trying to justify a costly shift in corporate strategy to bet on the metaverse, Zuckerberg’s vision for an immersive internet that may take years to realize.

For the better part of a decade, it has seemed like Facebook would never stop growing. Now young users – the future consumers of its advertising – are choosing platforms like TikTok and Google’s YouTube for entertainment and community instead.

Rarely, if ever, has Meta been confronted by so many substantial threats at the same time. Aside from user growth woes and intensifying competition, Meta is also contending with a crackdown on targeted

advertising by Apple, which it said may trim $10 billion in revenue this year, and cutbacks by advertisers that are paring budgets because of rising costs and supply chain disruptions.

The company, which changed its name to Meta last year to indicate its future direction, also said it will be taking on the META stock ticker in the first half of the year.

Shares plunged as low as $237.07 in New York.

At those levels, it’s the biggest collapse in market value for any U.S. company. But there’s no certainty the losses will hold, especially given the recent volatility that’s whipped across technology shares. Markets have swung wildly in recent weeks, with buy-thedip traders sometimes storming in during the final hours of the trading day.

Other social media companies also saw their shares decline, with Snap Inc. down 21%, Pinterest Inc. down 8% and Twitter Inc. down 5.1%.

Meta’s Reality Labs division, which includes the company’s investments in the metaverse and virtual reality, reported an operating loss of $3.3 billion for the fourth quarter, as the company disclosed its contribution for the first time.

On the company’s call, Zuckerberg was asked when parts of the metaverse will begin to arrive for users. He replied that some aspects – like digital avatars – are already here. He also reminded analysts that while the metaverse will be best experienced using a virtual or augmented-reality headset, people will still be able to access the digital environment through Meta’s existing apps, like Facebook and Instagram.

Facebook reported 2.91 billion monthly users in the fourth quarter, flat compared with the prior period. The main app’s daily active users in North America -- the company’s most lucrative market – declined slightly from 196 million to 195 million users.

Meta said revenue in the current period will be $27 billion to $29 billion, compared with the $30.3 billion analysts estimated on average. Changes to Apple’s mobile software that require user permission to gather data for ad tracking are significantly crimping revenue by limited targeted advertising, Meta said.

Sales are also taking a hit because Meta doesn’t make as much money from Reels video clips as it does from other products, like News Feed and Stories. Still, executives painted an optimistic picture, saying Reels will one day make as much money as those other products.

Net income in the fourth quarter was $10.3 billion, or $3.67 a share, Meta said, falling short of the $3.84 per share analysts projected. Revenue was $33.67 billion, compared with the $33.43 billion average estimate.

Wednesday’s earnings report was the company’s first since changing its corporate name from Facebook late last year.

Meet HitPiece, the digital music company artists despise even more than Spotify Los Angeles Times After a week when artists lambasted Spotify for spreading vaccine misinformation and for its low royalty payments, one unknown NFT firm started its own furor in the world of digital music.

For a few days this week, a new firm called HitPiece sold nonfungible tokens, or NFTs – pieces of code asserting ownership over a digital object – associated with thousands of musicians’ catalogs. Many artists and music companies have sold such items legitimately; this week, Coachella announced it will sell 10 lifetime passes to the festival as NFTs. But according to many acts who found NFTs associated with their work for sale on HitPiece, the company seemed to have done so without any permission or even notice.

“Any bleachers NFTs are fake,” wrote superproducer Jack Antonoff, about his band Bleachers appearing on the site’s catalog. “At the moment i do not believe in NFTs so anything you see associated with me isn’t real.”

“Hey you stupid f– we don’t have any deal with you or any NFT site and there SURE DOES LOOK like an active auction going on for a speedy ortiz song,” wrote Sadie Dupuis of the band Speedy Ortiz. “Can everyone please stop thickening the plot this NFT website is simmering in.”

“We’re looking into what we can do to get it taken down,” added the L.A. noise-rap trio Clipping. “F– this scam . . . .”

HitPiece’s founders did not immediately return messages requesting comment.

According to its own LinkedIn, executives at the company include Rory Felton, a founder of the record label Militia Group (later acquired by Sony) and the Feltone label; marketing executives Ryan Singer and Michael Berrin (better known as MC Serch from the ‘90s hip-hop combo 3rd Bass), and Blake Modersitzki, a partner at a Utah investment firm. In a podcast interview last month, Felton claimed to have raised $5 million for his NFT firm.

In a 2019 blog post, Felton laid out a model for HitPiece: “Blockchain digital collectibles can create large new revenue streams, a modern take on a fan club with gated content and access, and enable audiences to participate in the economics of the music ecosystem in a way that hasn’t been possible before. The company will take a ‘growth hacking’ approach to marketing, optimizing with a/b test methodologies, to accelerate the number of artist users and the volume and quality of content.”

(Felton has also posted scores of anti-vaccine and Covid-19 conspiracy content from the likes of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., at one point comparing Covid-19 restrictions for the unvaccinated to life in Nazi Germany.)

While HitPiece was attempting to sell digital objects associated with huge acts like BTS and Taylor Swift, they did not have deals with the artists or their labels; in fact, the company’s NFT content was scraped from Spotify’s publicly available metadata. Felton admitted on the podcast that whatever fans thought

Jack Antonoff of Bleachers performs during Audacy Beach Festival in Fort Lauderdale Beach, Florida, Dec. 4, 2021. they were buying was only notionally connected to the music itself – they were “trading cards for songs.”

Erin Jacobson, a Beverly Hills-based music industry attorney, said that a business like HitPiece would run into many different copyright obstacles. “The artist would have a cause of action for a third party using the artist’s trademark, other intellectual property or likeness in a way that appears the artist endorses the product,” she said. HitPiece wouldn’t even need to use an artist’s music to infringe on their likeness: “If an NFT does not include

an actual music file, but uses artwork from one of the artist’s albums instead, the NFT company would need to get permission,” she said.

Many artists affected by HitPiece seemed unlikely to grant it.

Some were furious that a company they’d never heard of was selling NFTs derived from their copyrights. “They steal your music, auction NFTs of it on their site, and when they get caught they say don’t worry you ‘get paid’,” wrote the indie band Deerhoof in response.

In a note posted to social media, HitPiece wrote, “Clearly we have

struck a nerve and are very eager to create the ideal experience for music fans. To be clear, artists get paid when digital goods are sold on HitPiece. Like all beta products, we are continuing to listen to all user feedback and are committed to evolving the product to fit the needs of the artists, labels, and fans alike.”

By Wednesday morning, HitPiece’s main site and all its contact information was scrubbed, replaced with a simple text message: “We started the conversation and we’re listening.”

The more I’m in the league, the more it makes me appreciate the team that we have.”

come in with a team that saw me in their long-term plans. I was able to get a pretty good offseason training, knowing what scheme I would be playing. That allowed me to come in and play a more consistent brand of football and be more of who I thought I could be and should be.”

5. MLB FRED WARNER Although he struggled early with expectations after signing a five-year contract extension worth a maximum of $95 million, Warner was pretty close to his 2020 form during the 49ers’ strong finish.

Warner had a team-high 137 tackles, can range sideline to sideline and has developed into a vocal leader of a strong defense.

Warner says: “I haven’t thought about what’s next. I thought we were going to the Super Bowl and now that we’re out of it I have to take that time to reflect and figure out what I’m going to do. Got to let the body recover until I really get back into it.”

7. DT ARIK ARMSTEAD Any talk that the 49ers erred in trading DeForest Buckner so they would commit financially to Armstead has been silenced. They became a different defense once Armstead moved inside full-time after splitting time at end and tackle. He had six sacks from Week 17 through the postseason and was a force as a run-stopper.

Armstead says: “Each season brings different challenges. The way we responded was great to see, to keep fighting. We kept playing for one another and that was a a great part of the team this year.”

6. LT TRENT WILLIAMS Williams had what he considers to be the best season of his career at age 33 and appears to only be getting better. He’ll be the primary bodyguard for Lance, who may not have the quick trigger Garoppolo did in terms of getting rid of the ball. And the 49ers’ blocking scheme enabled Williams to expand his game and show off his athleticism.

Williams says: “I was able to

8. WR BRANDON AIYUK Started in the doghouse and ended up in the vicinity of the penthouse. Aiyuk was the 49ers’ most dangerous conventional wide receiver finished with 56 for 826 yards and five scores. If he hits 2022 with a running start, he’s probably a 1,000-yard receiver and a dangerous downfield target for Lance.

Aiyuk says: “I get to go into the offseason healthy which is a huge

10. FB KYLE JUSZCZYK Had 30 receptions for 296 yards and eight rushes for 22 yards but Juszczyk’s game is not about stats. Shanahan uses his fullback extensively, and the ability of Juszczyk to block as well as give play-calling and play-designing flexibility is important in the 49ers’ system.

Juszczyk says: “We have a lot of young talent that’s going to be

RT Mike McGlinchey: Lost to a torn quad after eight games, McGlinchey’s absence cost one of the NFL’s better run-blockers at his position.

CB Emmanuel Moseley: The 49ers’ top corner when healthy – which hasn’t been often enough.

Moseley has played in 23 of 33 games over the last two regular seasons.

DT Javon Kinlaw: A big-bodied end and first-round draft pick in 2020, Kinlaw’s chronic knee pain required surgery the 49ers hope will make him a factor in 2022.

CB Ambry Thomas: A longarmed corner who Shanahan termed one of the club’s biggest surprises after a slow start, will go into 2022 with a good shot at being a starter.

C Alex Mack: Mack showed he could still play in 2021 and felt rejuvenated and challenged by the 49ers style of play. He’ll decide whether a 2022 season is in the cards at age 36.

course was honored and pointed out the planning and work that went into making it happen.

“It’s exciting to see how much has evolved with our growth of game initiatives at the Fairfield Golf Academy and to be recognized as a Top 50 Public Range

as a result,” Perry said.

“We are fortunate that when Paradise Valley Golf Course was built, the City of Fairfield placed an emphasis on a spacious range that includes lights, something that is not available at every golf course.”

here for a long time. The fact that we were able to overcome so much and know what it takes, that’s good for us going forward when you combine that experience with the talent we have.”

9. FS JIMMIE WARD Lots of question marks in the secondary, but Ward is not one of them. He’s been with the Shanahan regime since they arrived and is counted upon for his positional versatility and leadership on the back end. Had all three of his interceptions (including postseason) against Matthew Stafford, which can’t be a bad thing when facing their NFC West rivals.

Ward says: “I’ve been on teams where you can feel the negative vibe in the locker room.

But everyone was still coming to work and keeping their head up and trying to help dig ourselves out of this (3-5) hole. We know there will be change. I trust in John and Kyle to do their job – that’s what they get paid for.”
