UKRAINE | RUSSIA CRISIS

Russian forces aim to cut off Ukraine’s coastal cities Tribune Content Agency KYIV, Ukraine — Russian forces bombarded and besieged a swath of southern Ukrainian cities Thursday, seeking to sever access to the country’s crucial seacoasts even as the invaders appeared stalled in a bid to knock out Ukraine’s leadership by capturing or subduing the capital, Kyiv. As Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war in Ukraine shuddered into a second week, the full extent of a European refugee crisis on a scale not seen since World War II was coming into focus. An estimated 1 million Ukrainians – half of them children – have sought refuge outside the country, the United Nations and humanitarian organizations say. The total number of those displaced internally and externally could swell to a staggering 10 million, U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric said. Despite a tentative agreement Thursday by Ukrainian and Russian negotiators to set up safe corridors in some locales to allow humanitarian aid in and civilians out, the ferocity of the fighting has been escalating daily. Russian forces unleashed a fresh barrage of artillery fire, rockets and air attacks Thursday on Mariupol, a strategic city of some 430,000 people in southeastern Ukraine, on the Sea of Azov near the Russian border, news reports said.

Biden sets sanctions on more oligarchs

FAIRFIELD — Solano County Supervisor Mitch Mashburn is a big believer in elected officials taking the lead on critical issues such as homelessness. He is not a big fan of leaving it up to city and county staff members – especially if that approach, as he sees it, has not resulted in any real progress. That was the foundational motivation for the “homeless and housing summit” Thursday at the county Events Center. The representatives from the seven cities were asked to take back to their full councils

Tribune Content Agency

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden announced new sanctions on more than a dozen Russian oligarchs and their families, as pressure continued to build on Capitol Hill for an even tougher response to Moscow a week after it invaded Ukraine, particularly a ban on imports of Russian oil and gas. The White House imposed sanctions on 19 wealthy Russian individuals and 47 of their family members and close associates, including President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman, Dmitri Peskov, and Alisher Usmanov, one of the wealthiest men in Russia. Unwilling to engage Russia’s military directly, the United States and Europe have also increased their shipments of weapons and defense materiel to Ukraine in recent days, as live television coverage of Russia’s unprovoked aggression and social media posts from Ukraine have galvanized the West. Meanwhile, both the U.S. and European leaders continue to ratchet up the economic pressure on the elites in Putin’s inner circle in an effort to bring an end to his merciless assault on Ukraine. “We want (Putin) to feel the squeeze, we want the people around him to feel the squeeze,” Psaki said. “Making them a priority and a focus of our individual sanctions is something the president has been focused on.” The U.S. restrictions will prohibit those

SACRAMENTO — As California cities struggle to address a homelessness and mental health crisis on their streets, Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration on Thursday unveiled a proposal to compel more people with severe psychiatric disorders and addiction issues into court-ordered care that includes medication and housing. The proposal, which Newsom is calling the Community Assistance, Recovery and Empowerment Court, is the state’s latest effort to address one of California’s greatest struggles, and a recognition that something more robust is needed to solve the problem. Newsom allocated $12 billion for homelessness in the state budget last year and proposed another $2 billion in his January financial blueprint. But implementing

The CAP-Solano board restructure is based, in part, on an effort by some cities to meet informally in what they describe as a two-by-two format, where two members of the city councils from each city have been gathering monthly for nearly a year. A more unified front is expected to result in getting more of the unprecedented amount of state and federal dollars that are available for homelessness and affordable housing needs, but also to set countywide policies and procedures.

Instead of appointments by the city councils and Board of Supervisors, two elected officials from each agency would sit as the decision-makers. “What we want to do is put a structure in place that addresses these (homelessness) issues,” Supervisor Jim Spering said as the meeting was wrapping up. “If we don’t get organized, we are not going to be able to solve these problems,” he said.

“ ’Cause like a princess she was laying there, Moonlight dancing off her hair, She woke up and took me by the hand, She’s gonna love me in my Chevy van and that’s all right with me.” — From “Chevy Van” by Sammy Johns Who knew there were a group of recreational vehicle enthusiasts called vanners that gained popularity in 1976? The super vans set their owners back thousands of dollars as they turned them into exotic works of arts – literally bedrooms on four wheels. Van clubs sprung up around the country, including the Solano County Brotherhood of Vans (BOV). The BOV started with just six members in August 1975 and six months later had nearly 50. They were part of a larger organization, the Northern California Van Council, which helped coordinate upstate van activities. In January 1976, more than 2,000 vans converged on Disneyland for a one-day event and their custom vehicles covered about a quarter of the huge parking lot. Vans exteriors were metalflaked and pearled, pin striped, candy coated, air brushed in flame, lace, swirls, feathers and geometrics, among other decorations. Many featured creative murals on the sides, such as ones based on science fiction, then-popular bicentennial themes, nautical scenes and horror/comic ones, among others. The interiors featured waterbeds; floor, wall and ceiling carpets; televisions; stained glass windows; stereos and tape decks; refrigerators; portholes; couch beds; and more. The BOV were involved in civic projects and delivered 600 new toys to needy children in

JFK of bust

After President John Fitzgerald Kennedy was assassinated in 1963, he was honored from coast to coast. New York changed the name of its airport from Idlewild to Kennedy International, Cape Canaveral became Cape Kennedy and countless parks and municipal buildings were renamed. In 1964, a 16-year old Vacaville High student, Edward Spurr, spearheaded a drive to erect a memorial to the late president locally. He tried to raise funds himself and failed, but ultimately turned it over to the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 7244, which happily took over the effort. On the first anniversary of JFK’s death, Nov. 22, 1964, a ceremony attended by 400 people was conducted in Andrews Park to commemorate the occasion and unveil a bust of the slain world leader. It was bigger than life and made out of steel, concrete and sculpmetal (90% aluminum). The artist was Gus Bouquet, then an inmate at the California Medical Facility. At the ceremony, conducted by the commander of the Department of California Veterans of Foreign Wars, Edward Spurr spoke and Dusolina Libonati, whose son, 2nd Lt. Michael Lawrence Libonati Jr., died in World War II, laid two wreaths at the foot of the statue. For years after

Covid-19 case trend reaches pre-surge levels Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Solano County averaged just 36.6 cases since Monday, reaching presurge levels. “They are actually lower than they were before the surge,” Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said in a phone interview Wednesday. The county reported 96 new cases Wednesday, but only 73 were from the prior two days. That takes the pandemic total to 79,540. The 10-day daily case average is 54.4, down from 60.4. The number of residents in area hospitals with Covid-19 was up from 39 Monday to 45 Wednesday, but even that rise did not come with any concerns. “Keep in mind that (most) are hospitalized with Covid and not because of Covid,” Matyas said. There were 14 patients in intensive care units, down from 15, but consistent with what the county has been seeing in recent weeks. Vallejo added a county-high 37 new coronavirus cases for a city total of 24,860. Vacaville added 24 for a count of 19,426. Fairfield is at 21,241 cases with 23 new reports, the county data showed. Suisun City (5,585) added five new cases; Benicia (1,071) added

three; and Dixon (4,148) and Rio Vista (1,071) each added two. There were no new reports in the unincorporated area of the county with 193 cases, the county said. Matyas previously said that he believes vaccinations have plateaued in the county, as the percentage of residents 5 or older who are fully vaccinated remained at 72% and the percentage of that population having received one shot is at 82%. The number of booster shots administered is at 147,788, just 44 more than Monday, and there have been 12,183 children between 5 and 11 who have received a vaccine shot, up 37, the county reported. The seven-day positivity testing rate was at 8% Wednesday, down from 9% Monday. Matyas also restated his belief that the focus of the pandemic needs to be more on the more serious outcomes than just on case numbers, with the additional focus on treating Covid-19 as an endemic disease. Starting the week of March 14, the county will reduce its public updates from three days to two, those being Mondays and Thursdays. Solano County does not post case updates on Thursdays. The next update is scheduled late Friday afternoon.

Construction trades classroom opens at Evergreen Academy Matt Miller

FAIRFIELD — The ribbon was cut and a new era was ushered in Wednesday on a new trades classroom at the Solano County Probation Department’s Juvenile Detention Facility. Solano County Superintendent of Schools Lisette Estrella-Henderson said incarcerated youth “have such potential and that’s what today is all about.” “They’ve made mistakes,” Estrella-Henderson said. “They have skills. They just need a hand up. This is a way to help make them positive contributors to society. This is a long time in coming.” The trades classroom at the Evergreen Academy is a collaborative effort between the

Solano County Probation Department and the Solano County Office of Education. The aim of the

new classroom is to help reduce recidivism through educational and vocational training that is both

applicable and marketable after the students leave the facility. “No youth wants to be here and we’re not saying they aren’t being held accountable,” Probation Chief Chris Hansen said, “but we want them to know they have the ability to be productive. These are smart kids with a lot of potential. We want them to leave here with the ability to thrive and succeed.” The new classroom features eight workstations that include occupational safety, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, masonry, concrete, drywall, roof framing and woodworking. Students already receive academic learning, but this is an opportunity to receive credit toward high school graduation See Trades, Page A4

Sally Lunn

Sept. 29, 1939 — Feb. 11, 2022

Sally Jane (Baker) Lunn passed away in the early morning hours of Feb. 11, 2022, surrounded by her family following a brief illness. She was born in Michigan on Sept. 29, 1939, to Lester and Jane Baker. She met her beloved husband, Jim, in high school and they married shortly after college. Earlier this month they celebrated their 61st wedding anniversary. Sally and Jim moved to Paradise Valley Estates (PVE) located in Fairfield, California, from San Ramon, California, in December 2014. Sally worked as a teacher for many years before changing careers to work for the Department of Defense. While she enjoyed her roles outside the home, the roles she cherished most were that of those of loving mother and wife and supporting Jim as he furthered his Naval career. She was the consummate entertainer and enjoyed hosting weekly dinner parties for friends and family until retirement. She was known for being an excellent cook and the ‘hostess with mostess’. Sally will be remembered for her devotion to the love of her life, Jim, her even temperament and patience, her commitment to friends and family, and gracefully living life without complaint despite suffering debilitating back pain in her later years. She was also well-known for her literary prowess, both as an avid reader but also for her writing abilities. At PVE, she loved to volunteer and work with various committees that aimed to improve the living experience for residents. Throughout her life she thought of others first and so she did until the day she left this earth. She is survived by her loving husband, James (Jim) Lunn; daughter, Susan Thompson (Bobby); son, Michael Lunn (Holly); three grandchildren; and her brother, Terry Baker. Sally will be interred at the Sacramento Valley National Cemetery, Dixon, California. Service will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a donation in Sally’s name to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research.

Peggy H. Lish

Dec. 1922 — Feb. 2022

We are saddened to announce the passing of our 99-year-old dear mother, grandmother, greatgrandmother, sister, aunt and friend, Peggy Lish. Peggy was born in Oakland, California, to Netti Cecilia Corth and Harry Corth. Peggy grew up during the Depression and her life as a military wife reflected her frugal ways. She shopped wisely, cooked the family meals and baked amazing cakes. She and her husband Tom traveled to many locations due to his commitment first to the U.S. Navy and then U.S. Air Force. Mom talked about her impression of places where they were stationed like Mobile, Alabama, Hawaii and Okinawa. Travis Air Force Base was Dad’s final assignment before retiring and mom was happy to have her home in Fairfield. She was a proud mother of four children and was an involved parent in scouts, swim team, band, bake sales and PTA. She was also active in her church, Trinity Lutheran, in Fairfield. Every summer for many years she ran the church kitchen for the children and teachers in Vacation Bible School. She was known as ‘the cookie lady’ and the last day of VBS each summer mom would treat the adults to her homemade doughnuts. She was an active member of the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League and helped with their annual rummage sale. Mom was approached by the principal of ‘old’ K.I. Jones Elementary, Mr. Haugen, to work as a noon duty supervisor, which she did for many years. Later, she was asked to work with a special education class, a new program at the time, as the instructional assistant, with Jim Evans as the teacher. They were a great team: if the students had a good week, behavior-wise, Mom would bake a cake for the small class to share. In all the years she worked in

that program there was only one week the students did not earn a cake; Mom was so proud of that. After her retirement, she spent many years caring for her grandchildren. We all were lucky to have her in that role and she formed strong bonds that lasted though her life. Once the kids were no longer kids, Mom spent most Tuesdays having lunch with her senior friends at the Fairfield Senior Center where, as hostess, she greeted members and guests. She stayed with the group until she was nearly 95. She also loved going to Disneyland with her family; her birthday trip becoming an annual tradition. It’s easy to picture her royally waving to the parade performers, while she was bundled up in her purple Eeyore scarf. Her final months were spent in the loving home of her youngest daughter and son-in-law with the invaluable help from grandson-inlaw, Travis. Peggy is survived by her loving family son, Thomas Lish II; granddaughter, Davina Lish Battiste and spouse, Michael Battiste; daughter, Laurie Nipper; granddaughter, Dustin Russell; great-granddaughter, MaxLily Russell; daughter, Carole Lish Schneider and spouse, Michael Bailey; grandchildren, Timothy Lish Schneider and spouse, Travis Swink, Aeden Lish Schneider; sister, Jamesetta Berger; and numerous nieces and nephews. In addition to her parents, Peggy was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 70 years, Thomas C. Lish; brother, Roger Corth; sister, Kacey Bryant Cromwell; daughter, Martha Peggy Erck.

Split Suisun council opposes Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act Matt Miller

MMILLER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

SUISUN CITY — The City Council voted Tuesday to oppose an initiative known as the Taxpayer Protection and Government Accountability Act. According to staff reports, the act would “amend the California Constitution to restrict the ability of the state, counties other local agencies, and the electorate to approve or collect taxes, fees and other revenues.” It would require voter approval for all state taxes, would further restrict local fee authority by limiting it to the “minimum amount necessary” to provide government services, and would require voter approval for local measures such as franchise fees. Vice Mayor Alma Hernandez made the motion to write a letter of opposition from the council. Councilwoman Wanda Williams seconded it and the decision was made by a 4-1 vote with Councilman Mike Hudson in opposition. The Fairfield City Council also opposed the legislation during its meeting Tuesday night but added no discussion on the matter. “The way that it is

written is not beneficial to the city or the right way to go about it,” Hernandez said. “I don’t believe it’s beneficial.” “It diminishes a city’s ability to HERNANDEZ have sustainability and be fiscally sound,” Williams said. Hudson said in opposition: “This is our generation’s Prop. 13. We’ve raised sewer taxes, water tax and the tax on trash all in the last month, and there’s no stopping it. Every time there is a need, there is a tax on it. I completely support the proposition.” City Manager Greg Folsom wrote in the agenda item that the purpose of the ballot measure is to make it more difficult for counties, cities, schools, special districts and the state to raise revenue by any means. It places new and increased restrictions on “every manner of revenue measure and narrows exceptions to its most onerous requirements.” The effect, wrote Folsom, would be to increase city costs, reduce tax and fee revenue for cities, subject “de rigueur charges” such as franchise fees to voter approval requirements, and open

Supervisors agree to ‘equity training’ sessions Todd R. Hansen THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Eight months after a heated exchange over the Board of Supervisors engaging in equity training, the supervisors have agreed to participate in two days of TraumaInformed Training. Sarah Sweitzer, the provost for Touro University of California, will lead the sessions April 14 and April 28, each two hours long. Executive and other county managers also

will participate, it was announced at the board meeting Tuesday. Supervisor Erin Hannigan said in a phone interview Wednesday the training is a way to talk about ineq- HANNIGAN uities and human traumas and apply that to what the county does in terms of employees and clients. “Being more sensitive (about the reality that) humans do not always have control over their trauma, and the impacts

of trauma,” Hannigan said. She said race inequities and systemic racism will be part of the discussion but is not the whole of the training. “And we can be aligned with a number of our employee groups who are already engaged in the work,” Hannigan said. This shift in interest by the board is important to Hannigan, who said she felt she came under attack by some of her colleagues

when the possibility was raised last summer. She acknowledges her colleagues may also have felt she was attacking them. She told the other supervisors Tuesday she was trying to put June 22, 2021, behind her, but also said that was going to be difficult. “I don’t want to make a big deal out of this, but this is a big step for the board to take,” Hannigan said. The county will pay Sweitzer $2,000, even though she offered to do the sessions for free.

Supes introduce overnight noise ordinance Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Solano County supervisors want neighbors to keep the noise down. The board on Tuesday introduced a change to its code on disturbing the peace that prohibits “loud or unusual noise” between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., to include “any non-agricultural noise . . . that exceeds 65 (decibels) at the property line.” If this step is not enough to keep the peace, the board was told a “more comprehensive noise ordi-

nance” will be developed. Supervisor Mitch Mashburn wanted assurances a comprehensive plan is being developed, one that has. plenty of “meat” and “teeth” “This is just a stop gap, but please tell we are doing something more comprehensive,” Mashburn said, adding the issue of noise is raised with virtually every land use decision that comes before the board. He also wants to make sure the burden of enforcement does not fall on the Sheriff’s Office. County Counsel Ber-

County hires new Veteran Services director Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Solano County plucked its next Veteran Services director from San Francisco. Al Sims, 50, has been hired and will begin his duties March 28, the county announced in an online posting on its website. He is a U.S. Army combat veteran. “I served in the first Gulf War as a radio operator in the 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment, 502 Military Intelligence Company,” Sims said in an email. “Mr. Sims will be responsible for overseeing a staff of veteran benefit representatives and providing strategic direction and oversight to the department’s operations, including its budget,” the county announcement states. “Additionally, (Sims) will oversee the department’s comprehensive benefit, counseling and claims preparation process, which includes public outreach to veterans and their dependents, and the maintenance of mutually beneficial working relationships with the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs, the California Department of Veteran Affairs and Travis Air Force Base,”

the county stated. Sims replaces Ted Puntillo, who held the position for more than 10 years and turned the county office into one of the most successful Veteran Services operations in the state. Michelle Heppner, the legislative, inter-governmental and public affairs officer and a Navy reservist, has served as the acting director since Puntillo’s retirement at the end of 2021. Sims served in the same capacity as Veteran Services officer in San Francisco. He holds a master’s degree in business continuity, security and emergency management from Buckinghamshire NewUniversityinEngland. Sims will be paid $118,640 per year, the county administration reported. Solano County veterans and their dependents are encouraged to visit the Solano County Veteran Services Office for eligible benefits and services, including, but not limited to survivor benefits, medical benefits, educational programs, monetary benefit programs, home loan programs, property tax exemptions, burial benefits and more.

Fairfield council finalizes new district boundaries Daily Republic Staff

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The new district boundaries for Fairfield are now set until the next census in 2030. The City Council on Tuesday approved the ordinance that sets the boundaries for the six districts. The boundaries were approved in January, and the ordinance was introduced in February. The map is based on a city population of 120,178, according to the 2020 Census, and is divided among the six districts as 20,253 in District 1 (Chuck Timm); 20,639 in District 2 (Scott Tonnesen); 20,007 in District 3 (Catherine Moy); 19,868 in District 4 (Rick Vaccaro); 19,898 in District 5 (Doriss Panduro); and 19,513 in

District 6 (Pam Bertani). In other action, the council: n Recognized March as American Red Cross Month in Fairfield. n Approved an amended contract with Richards, Watson and Gershon and appointed David G. Lim as city attorney. The contract also allows for a cost of living increase, not to exceed 5%, to the monthly retainer of $60,666 for 300 hours for general legal services in the 2022-23 fiscal year. RWG bills at $225 per hour. n Introduced an ordinance that states a planning commissioner who misses three consecutive meetings or five in a 12-month period is subject to removal from the commission. There are health and other exemptions.

nadette Curry assured Mashburn this was the beginning to a broader response, and said information collected as part of this effort will go into developing a comprehensive ordinance. This is an issue the county has been struggling with for more than a decade, with little progress. “When the Solano County General Plan was updated in 2008, it included a section devoted to noise in the Public Health and Safety Chapter which identifies the county’s strategy for dealing

with unwanted noise as ‘reducing excessive noise exposure through costeffective measures and appropriate zoning that avoids placing incompatible land uses in proximity of each other,’ ” the staff report to the board states. It also states that a “county noise ordinance should be developed, adopted, and implemented.” The board addressed issues specific to agricultural noise in 2015, and public hearings were started in 2017 on a proposed ordinance, but the

draft ordinance was withdrawn on the staff’s request “to allow staff to conduct further public outreach.” State law gives the county some authority over what is termed “maliciously and willfully” disturbing others with “loud and unreasonable noise.” “However, the lack of an identifiable standard of what constitutes ‘loud’ or ‘unreasonable’ or ‘malicious or willful’ makes actual citation difficult,” the staff report states. In other action, the board:

FAIRFIELD — The City Council on Tuesday entered into a funding agreement with the Solano Transportation Authority for a beautification project along Highway 12 at the intersections with Webster and Jackson streets and at Pennsylvania Avenue. The $2.55 million landscaping improvement project is part of a $4.7 million grant awarded to STA through the California Department of Transportation’s portion of the Clean California Local Grant Program, along with Suisun City.

Fairfield must enter into a maintenance agreement with Caltrans to maintain the improvements once completed. The project must be completed by June 30, 2023. The funding agreement was required for the city to receive the beautification grant dollars. The city’s share of the project is $255,000 for the design of the project. Suisun City is paying $215,000. In other action: n Councilwoman Catherine Moy requested the council agendize whether to fully divest from any Russian-related investments and send a letter supporting the state Legislature’s ongoing consideration of taking

similar action. n The council approved a five-year, $500,200 lease with Canon Solutions America Inc. for multifunction copiers. The funds come from the Computer Services Fund. n Council members approved an improvement agreement to allow the construction of a bridge from Planning Area 4 to Planning Area 5 for the Canon Station development.

City seeks applicants for Mosquito Abatement District board seat Daily Republic Staff

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The city is accepting applications for one seat on the Solano County Mosquito Abatement District Board of Trustees. This appointment will fill an unexpired term with an expiration date of Dec. 31, 2023. Board meetings are at 7:30 p.m. the second Monday every month at the district office, 2950 Industrial Court. The Mosquito Abatement District is a special district responsible for mosquito abatement throughout the incorporated and unincorporated areas of Solano County, which covers more than 900 square miles. The district was

founded in 1930 in order to control the pestiferous Aedes mosquitoes that were being produced in the 184-square-mile Suisun Marsh. It was formed according to guidelines set forth by the Mosquito Abatement Act of 1915 and the California Health and Safety Code. The district is governed by an eightmember board. One trustee is appointed by each incorporated city or town, with an additional representative appointed by the Solano County Board of Supervisors. To be appointed, the member must be a resident voter of the representative municipality in the district. At the discretion of the appointing body, the trustee serves a two- or four-year

term without compensation, but does receive an in-lieu travel expense of $100 for attending each regularly scheduled board meeting. Duties and responsibilities of the board include setting policy, approving the annual budget, approving expenditures, hiring of the district manager and retaining legal counsel. District trustees are required to complete ethics (AB 1234) and harassment (AB 1825) training every two years. Board members should have experience, training and education in fields that will assist in the governance of the district. All trustees should exercise their independent judgment on behalf of the interests

of residents, property owners and the public. Trustees should also represent the interests of the public as a whole and not solely the interests of the Board of Supervisors or the city council that appointed them. Applications are available online at fairfield. ca.gov/commissions or at the City Clerk’s Office at City Hall, 1000 Webster St., fourth floor. To receive an application by mail or email, contact Deputy City Clerk Amber Alexander at 707-428-7402 or at aalexander@fairfield.ca.gov. Applications may be submitted via mail, email or in person. The application deadline is 5 p.m. April 8.

Life is not random; rather, it’s an intricate orchestration of mixed events, some random, others curated, some haphazardly tossed in, others painstakingly crafted according to your preference. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When you show up with good intentions, things might not go to plan, but they’ll go how they are supposed to. For instance, today your attitude and gifts will meet the needs of the moment in a way you couldn’t have predicted. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). You have emotional immunity to some moods. For instance, if people around you are tense and cranky you won’t catch the contagion. Even so, you can’t cure it. You’ll have a better time if you keep

‘Dancing with the Stars’ pro Chmerkovskiy arrives in LA after fleeing Ukraine Tribune Content Agency Maksim Chmerkovskiy, the “Dancing with the Stars” pro who fled his native Ukraine amid Russia’s invasion, arrived in Los Angeles on Wednesday following a lengthy journey. The choreographer hugged his wife, fellow “DWTS” veteran Peta Murgatroyd, after landing at Los Angeles International Airport in an emotional moment captured on camera and shared by Entertainment Tonight. “I just don’t want to resent peace somewhere else because of what I just saw, that’s the reality,” Chmerkovskiy told ET as he walked through the airport. “I don’t know really what to

He said he finally arrived in Warsaw after a 23-hour trip that included the train stopping for a tire change near the border of Poland. Before he left Ukraine, the 42-year-old chronicled his experiences in the country, including sharing in a video shot in Kyiv this week that he was arrested. He didn’t say what he was arrested for, calling the experience “probably the least traumatizing moment in this whole thing, as far as Ukraine is concerned.”

That united front also would go a long way, officials said, toward changing the public’s perception that government is not doing anything to address an issue that just keeps getting larger. Data presented by Gerald Huber, director of the county Department of Health and Social Services, showed the number of homeless in

the county is more than 10,000, with more than 1,500 children. The official last count put that number closer to 1,200. Several city officials did note, however, there has to be enough flexibility in those policies so each jurisdiction can address issues specific to their towns. Dixon, after all, does not mirror Fairfield, and Vacaville’s navigation center may not look like Vallejo’s center when they are developed.

Vaccaro said at first it was about getting city council members together to discuss how homelessness could be approached on a regional basis. “We started out by talking about the navigation center, and this started out for me with a visit to a navigation center in Placentia,” Vaccaro said.

From Page One Hundreds were feared dead in attacks that crumbled buildings and left civilians cowering in terror. “We cannot count the number of victims there, but we believe at least hundreds of people are dead,” Mariupol’s deputy mayor, Serhiy Orlov, told the BBC. “We cannot go in to retrieve the bodies. My father lives there. I cannot reach him. I don’t know if he is alive or dead.” The start of the onslaught against Mariupol coincided with the Russian capture Wednesday of Kherson, at the mouth of the Dnieper River near the Black Sea, which became the first major city to fall and an indication of Russia’s intensifying attacks on civilians. Russian troops also menaced Enerhodar, a power-generating southern city on the Dnieper that is the site of Europe’s biggest nuclear power plant. Amid pitched battles on the city’s outskirts, municipal officials

Biden From Page One sanctioned from traveling to the U.S.; and by targeting the elites’ family members, the administration is aiming to prevent them from easily transferring assets to spouses or children, a loophole often used in similar situations to evade sanctions. The latest move came amid new indications from Putin that he has no intention of halting the war until he has overtaken all of Ukraine. And it marked the latest effort by Washington to force him to recalculate his strategy through a devastating economic pressure campaign. On Wednesday, the Justice Department announced a team to enforce sanctions and export restrictions and to seize luxury assets belonging to Russia’s wealthiest citizens. The administration and European allies have thus far avoided sanctioning Russia’s energy sector, attempting to mitigate the impact on global

Help From Page One decision-making power to someone else. The practice is highly controversial, and some critics argue that it unfairly strips people of their rights, while proponents claim it is often the best option for those experiencing crisis. “CARE Court is really not a replacement for conservatorship,” said Jason Elliott, Newsom’s top advisor on housing, adding that it is a “new tool.” A person would not have to experience home-

on Beck Avenue into a navigation center, a kind of one-stop location to provide emergency shelter, social and health services and help toward transitional and permanent housing. “When Vallejo and Benicia recently jumped in, there has been progress . . . and the discussion I hope will lead to a navigation center,” Vaccaro said. Vallejo also is working on a navigation center but had a setback when the site selected for the center, by law, could not be used for a facility to house people because of its past as an industrial location.

Mashburn, a former Vacaville councilman, has bought into the two-bytwo concept and pushed without much success for the county to get involved. So he and Spering, who originally opposed the two-by-two as redundant, on their own organized the summit. That created a level of conflict on the county board. Vaccaro admits the lack of public involvement or even meeting announcements – and open meeting law considerations – have been raised at the city level, too. Vaccaro said he believes the summit will push the work into

more formalized settings moving forward. That would happen after passage of the resolution, with a deadline of May to get that done. The other public perception officials said needs to be cracked is that the majority of the homeless population are those individuals seen “standing on the corner and screaming at cars,” as Vacaville Councilman Nolan Sullivan described. They are also children who live in cars or sofa surf, and could become the next wave of adult homeless; as well as the military veteran who has no place to go.

could do little but advise city residents to shelter in their homes. Invading troops have begun moving west from Kherson toward Mykolaiv, another major Black Sea port and shipbuilding center, and amphibious landing vessels were also reported to be heading toward the historic seaside city of Odessa. The Russian advances in the south came as Russian and Ukrainian representatives agreed on a mechanism for establishing humanitarian corridors, which would be coupled with temporary local cease-fires. But few are holding out hope that the negotiations will be able to halt the biggest ground war in Europe in more than 75 years. Putin demands that Ukraine demilitarize and declare neutrality, and more broadly, the Russian leader has made clear his wish to reestablish Russia’s sphere of influence across the former Eastern Bloc, rearranging Europe’s entire security architecture. Some of those who have been in direct contact with Putin paint a dire picture of the Russian leader’s possible

intentions in Ukraine. After a 90-minute phone call Thursday between French President Emmanuel Macron and Putin, a senior Elysee Palace official who briefed reporters on condition of anonymity offered a bleak assessment: “Without making a prediction, we should expect the worst is yet to come.” Western allies continued to try to force Putin from his course with new punitive steps. The White House said Thursday that the U.S. would impose sanctions reaching into Putin’s inner circle, targeting eight members of Russia’s elite, including Putin’s official spokesman. The Biden administration will also place visa restrictions on 19 oligarchs and their family members. Although Ukrainians have put up staunch resistance over eight days of fighting, reports on the ground were grim. Russian troops have now surrounded Mariupol on all sides and could capture the port at any time, Ukrainian officials acknowledged. “Our internal forces are very brave, but we are surrounded by the

Russian army,” Orlov, the deputy mayor, told CNN. In Washington, a senior defense official told reporters that the Pentagon believes that 90% of the forces that Putin assembled for the invasion are now in Ukraine. The capture of Mariupol would bridge the gap between territories held by Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine and Russian soldiers in the southern peninsula of Crimea, which Moscow annexed by force in 2014. Together with the seizure of other coastal cities, it would give Russia control over the rest of southern Ukraine, cutting off the country’s access to key shipping routes in the Black Sea and devastating Ukraine economically. The desperate conditions in Mariupol and elsewhere paint a grim picture for Ukraine of an overwhelmingly powerful military foe willing to launch more attacks on civilian targets, including schools and hospitals. A prosecutor for the International Criminal Court says senior Russian leaders are being investigated for war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide.

energy markets and consumers. By putting the financial screws to Russian millionaires and billionaires, the administration hopes they will be able to force those oligarchs to distance themselves from Putin and urge him to find a diplomatic off-ramp to end the war in Ukraine. But so far the economic and geopolitical effects of the swift global response to Moscow – the ruble has nosedived, Russian planes have been barred from European and U.S. airspace and long neutral countries such as Finland and Sweden have suggested a newfound interest in joining NATO – have not deterred Putin. On Thursday after the Russian leader’s 90-minute telephone call with French President Emmanuel Macron, an Élysée official concluded that Putin was determined to conquer Ukraine no matter the cost, stating flatly that “the worst is yet to come.” As the shelling of Ukraine’s major cities continues a week after Putin began the invasion, political pressure continues to build in

Washington to sanction Russia’s oil and gas industry. Republicans argue that going after the country’s energy exports would cripple Russia far more dramatically than other actions the U.S. has already taken. “Their Achilles’ heel is that their economy depends on oil and gas revenue. Never in the history of warfare have we had a chance to deliver such a decisive blow without firing a shot,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. “If the Ukrainians can stand up to a tank, if a grandmother can get a rifle, surely to God we can produce more oil and gas.” Several Republicans as well as Democratic Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Jon Tester of Montana have introduced bills to ban the U.S. import of Russian oil. Although Europe is far more dependent on Russian energy resources, the U.S. buys almost 700,000 barrels of oil per day from Russia, according to Sen. Dan Sullivan, R-Alaska. “That’s $17 billion that we are putting into

Putin’s war chest,” he said. “This is national security suicide.” So far, the administration has shied away from the oil and gas sanctions. The move, likely to wreak hardship on ordinary Russians, could rally them behind their leader. At the same time, such measures would likely increase oil prices on the global market and could lead to significant economic and political pushback at home. “The president’s objective has been to maximize impact on President Putin and Russia while minimizing impact to us and our allies and partners,” Psaki said Thursday. “We don’t have a strategic interest in reducing the global supply of energy.” Many Democrats are skeptical of the idea, in part because it would require the United States to increase domestic production to make up for it, but top House Democrats are on board. “I’m all for that. Ban it,” said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., reiterated the same stance.

lessness to participate in CARE Court, and families, clinicians, counties, behavioral health providers and first responders could all request implementation of a plan. Participants could include those who were just arrested and released, or are exiting a short-term involuntary hospital hold. A plan could be ordered to last for 12 months, with the possibility of a 12-month extension. If unsuccessful, a participant could instead be hospitalized or ordered into a conservatorship. Dr. Mark Ghaly, California’s health and human services secretary, said the plan would

help alleviate “one of the most heartbreaking, heart-wrenching and yet curable challenges that we face in our communities and on our streets.” “For a community, a population of individuals who lives in the shadows, lives often without voice, today is about lifting them up and prioritizing their needs,” Ghaly said. Ghaly said the new program will focus on clinical services for people experiencing psychotic disorders such as schizophrenia, along with treatment plans for substance abuse disorders. Another important element of the plan is providing housing services, Ghaly said.

Though the plan so far is just a policy framework, the administration said it is working with the Legislature on a bill that would codify the proposal. Elliott said it is imperative that lawmakers work quickly to pass legislation so the plan can become law. The administration is also weighing whether to include the proposal in the budget, which would be the fastest way to implement it. The deadline to pass legislation is Aug. 31, but the Legislature approves the budget each year in June. “We don’t have any time to waste here,” Elliott said.

After a two-year hiatus due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Experimental Aircraft Association EAA 1230chapterhasrelaunched the Young Eagles program at the Nut Tree Airport. Local pilots, using their own planes at their own expense, give youth 8 to 17 an opportunity to enjoy their first flights. It is open to anyone in that age group. “In 2019, we probably did 40 or 50 flights every Saturday,” said Larry Smigla, president of the association. “They can come back as many times as they want. It if free to everyone.” The program starts up again March 19 and is offered on the third Saturday of each month, 7:30 to 9:30 a.m., through November. At least one parent or trusted guardian must sign the registration form and must be present throughout the flight, organizers said.

RHS grad Megan Massa named PacWest Player of the Week Paul Farmer

PFARMER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

Talk about being on a roll. The third-ranked Concordia-Irvine softball team improved to 20-0 on the season, the program’s best ever start in the NCAA Division II era, by opening MASSA PacWest Conference play with an 8-0 road trip to Northern California that concluded Monday.

As leadoff hitter and primary rally-starter for the Eagles, senior outfielder Megan Massa was a big reason her team went 4-0 against Dominican and Academy of Art. The Rodriguez High graduate batted a sizzling .556 (15-for-27) with 12 runs, four RBIs, five doubles, three triples and a walk over the eight-game span. Not surprisingly, Massa was

named the PacWest’s Player of the Week, after batting .524 with nine runs, two triples and a double. On the season, Massa has at least one hit in 17 of the Eagles’ 20 games and is batting .455, with a .712 slugging percentage, .507 on-base percentage, a 1.219 OPS, 30 hits, 11 doubles, three triples, five stolen bases in as many attempts and a conference-leadSee Alumni, Page B2

Vanden boys work overtime to sink Bishop O’Dowd in Norcals MMILLER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — A premature charging of the court by fans nearly cost the Vanden High School boys basketball team, but in the end, it gave the Vikings some extra pep in their step. Vanden rallied from a huge first-quarter deficit through the next three quarters to take the game into overtime. The No. 5 seed Vikings pulled away for a 74-67 victory Thursday night over No.

13 Bishop O’Dowd of Oakland in the quarterfinals of the CIF Division II Northern California playoffs. Fans stormed the court at the end of what they thought was regulation. Vanden’s Takai Emerson-Hardy knocked a shot away, grabbed the loose ball and threw it down the court. But officials said EmersonHardy was fouled on the play, meaning the game wasn’t over when the fans came out. Emerson-Hardy hit

down a big 3-pointer. This time the fans stormed the court as the buzzer sounds and celebrated without penalty. The Vikings improved to 21-12 overall and will play at 6 p.m. Saturday night at No. 1 Elk Grove in the NorCal semifinals. Elk Grove was a 59-55 winner over No. 8 San Ramon Valley. “We had to recalibrate going into overtime,” Vanden head coach Micheal Holloway said. See Vanden, Page B2

Doncic powers Mavericks past slumping Warriors, 122-113 Dallas Morning News DALLAS — The roll continues. For Luka Doncic and for the Mavericks. On Thursday night, playing in American Airlines Center for the first time in 19 days, Dallas pulled out a 122-113 victory over Golden State by, once again, bearing down and dominating in crunch time. Dallas never trailed and led by as many as 17 points, but Golden State pulled into a 104-104 tie midway through the fourth quarter. The Mavericks were incorrectly called for a 24-second violation that aided the Warriors’ comeback, but Dallas overcame that and scored 18 of the final 27 points. “That’s the growth of our young team,” Mavericks coach Jason Kidd said after his team climbed to

13 games over .500 (38-25) for the first time this season. “Our maturity level was high. In the past, we might have melted mentally.” On the day he was named Western Conference Player of the Month for February, Doncic torched the Warriors for 19 first-quarter points en route to a 41-point, 10-rebound, 9-assist performance. The game also of course showcased two-time NBA Most Valuable Player Stephen Curry, who was the Western Conference Player of the Month for November. And it included the return of Curry’s Splash Brother, Klay Thompson, from a two-game illness absence. Dallas, though, limited Curry to 21 points and Thompson to 16. It’s hard to fathom Doncic main-

taining his February pace – which included a 34.7-point scoring average, the highest by any Maverick in any month – along with averages of 10.3 rebounds and 8.8 assists. But as Thursday showed, there will be more scoring explosions in Doncic’s immediate future. And many more POM awards in his career. This was his second in four seasons, to go along with his November of 2019 honor. “He’s playing off the charts,” Kidd said. But, as Kidd noted, Doncic wouldn’t have won player of the month had the Mavericks been, say, 5-5 in February. They were 7-3. “That’s not just an individual award,” Kidd said. “It’s a team award because the team has to win, too.”

SAN FRANCISCO — One of the best seasons in Vanden High girls basketball history came to an end as the sixth-seeded Vikings fell 54-50 in overtime to No. 3 St. Ignatius in the CIF Division I Northern California quarterfinals, Thursday. The Vikings, bumped up two divisions because of competitive equity by the CIF seeding committee after cruising to the Sac-Joaquin Section Division III championship on Saturday, finish the season 26-4. The Wildcats improved to 20-8 and play at St. Mary’s of Stockton in the NorCal semifinals on Saturday. Vanden was led by Alyssa Jackson with 19 points but could get no one else in double figures as Kiki Roberts, Calonni Holloway and Gabby Wright were next at six points apiece.

The Vikings are 1-4 all-time against St. Ignatius, having split previous NorCal meetings with the Cougars, losing to them in 2013, 57-53, while defeating them in 2016, 66-35.

The 6-foot-9 Connolly was a challenging and strong presence within short range. “It was nerves early,” Holloway said. “They knew it was the big stage, win-or-go-home. It was the biggest game of their lives, just like the next one will be.” Vanden opened the game a bit sluggish, missing open looks, and trailed 22-9 at the end of the first quarter. But Thompson had a huge second quarter when he scored 14 and knocked

down three 3-pointers. That closed the gap to six at halftime with the Dragons up 34-28.

CALMATTERS COMMENTARY

Newsom sets yet another course on Covid-19

t some point in the future, if we have one, historians will ponder when and why Covid-19 morphed from a public health crisis into an ideological confrontation, with vaccinations and masks as symbols of political leaning and with schoolchildren as innocent pawns. However it happened, the politicization of the pandemic continues to flavor its response. Officials insist that they are “following the science” when they impose or lift personal behavior decrees, but it’s obvious they also are sensitive to the political effects. After all, orders about vaccinations, masks, public gatherings and other pandemic-fighting tools only work if the public is willing to obey them, or at least enough to have dampening effect on contaDan Walters agion. If the howls of protest are loud and widespread enough, officialdom has no choice but to back off. This fact of life was demonstrated in 2020 when Gov. Gavin Newsom repeatedly issued restrictive orders, only to lift them. When his initial shutdown orders appeared to slow infections, he boasted how California was succeeding while other states, such as New York, were being devastated. Newsom dubbed it “bending the curve” and reopened vast sections of the economy that he had shuttered only weeks before. “We have to recognize you can’t be in a permanent state where people are locked away – for months and months and months and months on end – to see lives and livelihoods completely destroyed, without considering the health impact of those decisions as well,” Newsom rationalized. However, when infection rates and deaths increased again in midyear, Newsom reimposed restrictions, closing bars, making masks mandatory and banning indoor activities in counties with particularly high infection rates. He also formed “multiagency strike teams” to crack down on “people who are thumbing their noses” at restrictions. Later in the year, Newsom once again eased up, only to crack down again during a strong surge of infections during the winter of 2020-21. The dizzying on and off sequence confused and eventually angered Californians – enough that a recall campaign aimed at ousting Newsom qualified for the ballot and looked, for a time, to have a chance of success. Newsom is once again easing up on restrictions that had been ordered in response to the omicron strain of the disease last year. He’s adopted what he calls “SMARTER,” an acronym for policies aimed, he says, at weakening or dropping unneeded restrictions while guarding against future outbreaks. “California’s early and decisive measures to combat Covid-19 have saved countless lives throughout the pandemic, and as the recent omicron surge made clear, we must remain prepared to quickly and effectively respond to changing conditions in real time,” Newsom said. “As we move the state’s recovery forward, we’ll continue to focus on scaling back provisions while maintaining essential testing, vaccination and health care system supports that ensure California has the needed tools and flexibility to strategically adapt our response for what lies ahead.” The state has lifted mandatory wearing of masks inside businesses and other public venues and will soon drop the mask requirement for schoolchildren – a move that has drawn protests from teachers and may not sit well with parents. A recent poll by UC Berkeley’s Institute of Governmental Studies found about two-thirds of voters, and of parents, support Covid-19 vaccinations of schoolchildren and being masked during classes. Newsom’s performance as manager of the pandemic has been, to say the least, erratic, even as he claims to have been decisive and effective. Covid-19 is still with us and still killing people, so the final verdict on his management has yet to emerge.

A former KGB officer told Craig Unger, “The ad was assessed by the active measures as one of the most successful KGB operations of that time. . . . It was a big thing – to have three major American newspapers publish KGB sound bites.” Then, Unger writes, in the wake of the 2008 fiscal crisis, Trump expanded into developing golf courses. According to his son Eric Trump, the funding came from Russia. In 2013, Trump staged the Miss Universe Pageant in Moscow, financed and produced by Aras Agalarov, a Putin-aligned oligarch. Perhaps most telling about Trump’s attitude toward Russia were his very recent comments after Putin ordered his troops to invade Ukraine. It was pure congratulations to the Russian dictator for handling the attempted Ukrainian breakaway. There was not a word of support for the Ukrainian people who have had the Russian boot on their necks for years. Sad to say, even Trump’s insistence that Putin would never have invaded Ukraine if he had still been president was further evidence of his fondness for the communist dictator.

used no process at all to consider the implications of accepting Russia’s claim. On the other hand, there is the simple fact that Russia is not listed among the Security Council’s members. The U.N.’s diplomats are used to pretending that it is, but every reader of the U.N. Charter can see that it isn’t. Lawyers are supposed to pay attention to the actual text of a document – they aren’t supposed to squint so hard that they start seeing words that aren’t there. Any openeyed reading of the charter makes it clear that Russia is not a permanent member of the Security Council. If Russia had been considered a new state in 1991 instead of the successor to the Soviet Union, it would have been required to apply for membership at the U.N., and its chair in the Security Council would have been up for discussion. These were both thought by Russia to involve unacceptable costs and the U.S., the U.N. and others caved. The Ukrainian ambassador added one last twist. He pointed out that U.N. membership is open only to “peace-loving nations.” This qualifier doesn’t apply to founding members (such as the Soviet Union) but does apply to every country that aspires to join thereafter. Russia has shown in the past weeks that it is governed by a government that is far from peaceloving. It is worth asking if it is time to stop squinting at the charter and read the words as they actually appear.

His latest book, “How to Do Things With International Law,” examines the ideology of the rule of law in international affairs.

From left, John C. Reilly as Jerry Buss, Quincy Isaiah as Earvin “Magic” Johnson and Jason Clarke as Jerry West in “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty.”

New actors make themselves Lakers legends for HBO series Tribune Content Agency LOS ANGELES — When NBA legend Michael Jordan reminisced about his remarkable career and final championship season with the Chicago Bulls in 2020’s “The Last Dance,” viewers turned up in droves, making the ESPN docuseries an instant smash. HBO is hoping to score a similar victory with a strikingly different story of basketball greatness, one that could easily be subtitled “Flashdance.” “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty” stars a veteran team of top-tier performers and a pair of screen rookies portraying NBA legends Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Set at the start of the “Showtime” era of the 1980s Los Angeles Lakers, the series, which premieres Sunday, depicts how the team, with an assist from the freshfaced rookie Johnson and the dominant but moody AbdulJabbar, realized owner Jerry Buss’ revolutionary vision of mixing muscular athleticism with noisy, sexy entertainment, transforming the franchise into a dazzling powerhouse with worldwide popularity. Like “The Last Dance,” “Winning Time” is filled with strong, colorful personalities; intense locker room drama; memorable allusions to pop culture; and the pressurized frenzy of sporting fame. But against its predecessor’s relatively straightforward documentary approach, anchored by talking head interviews with the key players, “Winning Time” is an extensively researched, rollicking tale of flash, cash and clashes, filled with outrageous situations likely to make viewers wonder, “Did that really happen that way?” It’s

the latest from executive producer Adam McKay, who also directed the pilot and injects the series with the irreverent flavor of his previous projects, with family drama to rival “Succession” and stylistic touches reminiscent of his films “The Big Short,” “Vice” and “Don’t Look Up.” “We want everyone to have a blast watching this,” said co-creator, showrunner and executive producer Max Borenstein. “It’s a show about how basketball changed culture. This moment in American history changed the NBA and influenced our culture on a global scale.” Added executive producer Rodney Barnes: “At its core, this is about the creation of entertainment and show around basketball. People will get a better idea of the business of basketball, plus the behindthe-scenes stuff you didn’t know, along with the things you did know.” “Winning Time” kicks off a flood of forthcoming TV projects celebrating the Lakers, who are currently struggling though a low-octane season of uninspired play and relentless scrutiny of management decisions. Current owner and president Jeanie Buss (daughter of Jerry) and filmmaker Antoine Fuqua (“Training Day”) are developing a nine-part documentary series exploring the team’s history during the last four decades for Hulu. And Johnson will be the subject of his own

four-part docuseries, “They Call Me Magic,” scheduled to premiere in April on Apple TV+. But these authorized endeavors are not likely to have the salacious edge or freewheeling energy of “Winning Time.” Characters break the fourth wall, commenting on the action and winking at the audience. Onscreen captions identify characters, often with unflattering descriptions. The dialogue is crammed with expletives. Some viewers may be startled by some of the excessive behavior, Barnes acknowledged. “Anytime you do some kind of rendition of a team or players or individuals, there are many facets. There is the public persona, the persona within the game, and then you have aspects of who a person may be, based upon the research that we’ve done.” The star-studded cast includes John C. Reilly as Lakers owner and man-abouttown Jerry Buss; Jason Clarke as Laker legend Jerry West; Adrien Brody as coach Pat Riley; Jason Segel as his Shakespeare-quoting colleague Paul Westhead; Sally Field as Jerry’s mother, Jessie Buss; and Hadley Robinson as young Jeanie. Occupying the center of the action are newcomers Quincy Isaiah and Solomon Hughes, who play Johnson and AbdulJabbar, respectively. Both have minimal acting experience: Isaiah, who like Johnson hails from Michigan, has had a few minor roles. Hughes, a former college basketball player and Harlem Globetrotter who earned a doctorate in higher education from the University of Georgia and lectured at Stanford University’s School of Higher Education, is making his professional acting debut.

by Phillip Alder one honor. Against a suit contract, though, the lead might be ambiguous. It could also be from a suit headed by at least one honor. (Yes, now the leader won’t have the ace or two touching honors, both of which are possible against no-trump.) However, it could also be a singleton. How does third hand decide which it is? Usually the bidding will give the game away, but sometimes third hand must be guided by declarer’s play from the board. Take today’s deal as an example. Against two spades, West led the heart two, and declarer played low from the board. What should East have done? If West had led from length, surely declarer would have won with dummy’s ace. So, East should have won with his king and returned the heart three, both giving his partner a ruff and sending a suit-preference signal for clubs. A trusting West would underlead his club ace. East would win with his king and deliver a second club ruff. After the club ace survived, the contract would be down one, with the spade ace still to come. At the table, East played the heart 10 at trick one, so South won with his queen, led a trump and got home. (Finally, yes, here, declarer guessed wrongly at trick one in not winning with dummy’s ace.) COPYRIGHT: 2022, UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE

Jennifer Hudson during arrivals at the 91st Academy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 24, 2019, at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center in Hollywood.

Hudson plans to ‘shake things up’ with new daytime talk show in fall Tribune Content Agency LOS ANGELES — Two decades after her “American Idol” outing, Grammy and Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson is returning to television this fall to host “The Jennifer Hudson Show,” a one-hour, syndicated daytime talk show on Fox TV stations. “I have experienced so much in my life; I’ve seen the highest of the highs, the lowest of the lows, and just about everything in between but as my mother always told me, ‘Once you think you’ve seen it all, just keep on living,’” the much-loved “American Idol” winner and “The Voice” coach said in a statement. “People from around the world have been a part of my journey from the beginning – 20 years ago – and I’m so ready to join their journey as we sit down and talk about the things that inspire and move us all,” Hudson, 40, added. “I have always loved people and I cannot wait to connect on a deeper level and let audiences see the different sides of who I am, the human being, in return. And I couldn’t be more thrilled to do it alongside this incredible team. We’re about to have a lot of fun and shake things up a little bit!” It’s a big week for the star, who also won the top honor of entertainer of the year at the 53rd NAACP Image Awards, which highlights works by entertainers and writers of color. Hudson memorably stepped in to sing a tribute to late music titan Whitney Houston at the 2012 Grammy

Awards and was handselected by Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin to play her in last year’s biopic “Respect” after she saw Hudson’s Oscarwinning turn in 2006’s “Dreamgirls.” The “lowest of lows” Hudson referred to in her initial statement likely includes the family tragedy involving the slaying of her mother, brother and nephew in a 2008 home invasion. “The Jennifer Hudson Show” will be produced in Los Angeles by Warner Bros. Unscripted Television and Telepictures. Telepictures produced the outgoing “Ellen DeGeneres Show,” and that show’s executive producers Andy Lassner and Mary Connelly were showrunners on Hudson’s test show, which she shot last fall on DeGeneres’ stage, according to Variety. Warner Bros. has shopped the program and Fox won the bid. The show also unites the powerhouse singer with Mike Darnell, the president of unscripted and alternative television at Warner Bros. Before that, Darnell oversaw the “American Idol” franchise at Fox when Hudson was a finalist on Season 3 in 2004 and launched her multi-hyphenate career. “I knew that Jennifer was a force to be reckoned with from the moment I met her nearly 20 years ago,” Darnell said in a statement. “From her Grammy-winning career in music, to her Oscar-winning acting career, Jennifer’s amazing talent, big heart and authenticity shine through in everything she does.”

In brief Former officer found not guilty

The sole police officer charged in the deadly raid on Breonna Taylor’s apartment was acquitted Thursday. Brett Hankison, 45, had been charged with wanton endangerment because bullets he fired flew into a neighboring apartment. Myles Cosgrove and Jonathan Mattingly, the two officers who combined to shoot Taylor six times, were never charged with crimes. No one was charged with killing Taylor, a 26-year-old Black woman.

Police fatally shoot a 12-year-old boy PHILADELPHIA — Philadelphia police officers fatally shot a 12-year-old boy in the back Tuesday night in South Philadelphia after a bullet was fired into their vehicle, officials said Wednesday. The boy, identified as Thomas Siderio, was taken to Penn Presbyterian Hospital and died minutes after he was shot.

Trumps won’t have to testify during appeal Donald Trump and two of his children won’t have to appear for depositions in New York Attorney General Letitia James’ probe of their family business while they challenge a decision requiring them to testify. Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump appealed a state judge’s order issued last month forcing them to give testimony in James’s investigation into potentially fraudulent asset valuations at the Trump Organization. On Thursday, James and the Trumps agreed that they will not have to appear until two weeks after an appellate panel in Manhattan upholds the order, unless New York’s highest court puts the case on hold. The trio asked the appeals court to determine whether the attorney general, while participating in a criminal prosecution by the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office with an active grand jury, violates their rights by requiring their testimony through an administrative subpoena. The criminal case is People of the State of New York v. Trump Organization Inc., 451685/2020, New York State Supreme Court, New York County.

Mother of slain sailor sues feds SAN DIEGO — The mother of a sailor who authorities said was shot to death by her mentally ill Oceanside, California, neighbor is suing the federal government, alleging it failed to block the accused shooter from buying a gun. The suit alleges that after Eduardo Arriola, a former Marine, was diagnosed as schizophrenic and discharged in 2017, no one put his name into the FBI database listing people prohibited from buying firearms. The following year, according to authorities, Arriola bought a firearm from an Oceanside gun store – two months before the fatal shooting of neighbor Navy Corpsman Devon Rideout. — Tribune Content Agency

UC Berkeley could be forced to cut enrollment by 3,050 seats People walk toward Sather Gate on the University of California, Berkeley campus, July 22, 2020.

Tribune Content Agency LOS ANGELES — The California Supreme Court on Thursday declined to lift an enrollment cap on UC Berkeley, leaving one of the nation’s most popular campuses scrambling to cut its incoming fall class by one-third, or 3,050 seats, just weeks before it was set to release admission decisions. The high court rejected the University of California’s appeal to stay a lower court ruling issued last August that froze enrollment at Berkeley until the campus more thoroughly examined the impact of its burgeoning growth on housing, homelessness and noise. The court left intact a ruling by Alameda County Superior Court Judge Brad Seligman, who capped enrollment while the lawsuit filed by Save Berkeley’s Neighborhoods, proceeds. The fierce court battle has drawn national attention – and action by Gov. Gavin Newsom, who recently weighed in with an amicus letter urging the high court to lift the cap while the litigation proceeds to avoid harm to thousands of hardworking students and undermining the state’s interest in increasing college access. “We can’t let a lawsuit get in the way of the education and dreams of thousands of students who are our future leaders and innovators,” Newsom said in a statement. “I urge the Supreme Court to step in to ensure we are expand-

ing access to higher education and opportunity, not blocking it.” Newsom’s amicus letter, submitted by state Attorney General Rob Bonta, told the state Supreme Court that expanding access to college – particularly high-demand campuses in the renowned UC system – was a top state priority. Newsom described it as a “keystone” of his higher-education vision on college access, affordability, equity and innovation. UC Berkeley in particular provided an “unmatched opportunity for low-income students, students from diverse backgrounds, and transfer students to access a high-quality education at a prestigious university at public-school tuition rates,” the letter said. Phil Bokovoy, president of Save Berkeley’s Neighborhoods, has dismissed these assertions as hyperbole, saying that California students could be protected by cutting admissions of international and out-of-state students. He also said the university is to blame for the crisis by not adequately reviewing the impact of its growth and failing to provide enough housing for students. An amicus brief in support of Bokovoy’s group called Newsom’s assertions of grave harm to students “an overblown sound bite” and purely speculative. The brief by Berkeley Citizens for a Better Plan, a community group opposing the campus’ long-range devel-

opment plan, said limiting enrollment would give UC an incentive to “expeditiously and lawfully” conduct the new environmental review ordered by Seligman. In 2005, the university projected in its long-range development plan that it would enroll 33,450 students by 2020. Bokovoy’s group learned in 2016 that Berkeley had exceeded that level by about 30% and two years later sued to force the campus to review the environmental impact of more than 11,000 additional students. Berkeley conducted the review, finding no significant impact. That prompted the neighborhood group and the city of Berkeley to demand a redo, arguing in a 2019 lawsuit that the campus review was inadequate and the conclusion wrong. In August 2021, Seligman ruled in their favor, ordering Berkeley to perform a more thorough analysis and freeze enrollment at 2020-21 levels until it was completed. UC appealed that ruling in October, but it wasn’t until January that it asked the appellate court to stay the enrollment cap, because, it said in court papers, it had mistakenly believed the stay would automatically occur. Two weeks ago, the appellate court rejected UC’s appeal for a stay, prompting the university to turn to the high court. UC Berkeley said the 2020-21 enrollment level was abnormally low because the pandemic

had caused an unanticipated drop of more than 800 students who chose to take time off. To meet that level, the campus said it would have to reduce admission offers to firstyear and transfer students by 5,100 for fall 2022 and cut back financial aid and reduce campus services due to a loss of $57 million in tuition revenue. Berkeley is one of the nation’s most appliedto universities, admitting 14.5% of 112,820 firstyear students and 38% of 22,188 transfer applicants in fall 2021. In a typical year, the campus admits 21,000 first-year and transfer students and enrolls about 9,500 of them. The governor’s entry into the court fight underscored the enormous stakes at hand. Others joined the full-court legal press last week, with the city of Berkeley and the Bay Area Council, a public policy advocacy group of business leaders, filing their own amicus briefs supporting the UC Board of Regents’ appeal. UC, in its appeal to the high court, said the enrollment cap would prove particularly “catastrophic” to the top-rated public research university’s goal to admit more low-income, underrepresented students. That’s because cutting the incoming class by one-third would force the campus to reassess its selections among 150,000 first-year applicants and delay the release of admission decisions – giving low-income students less

time for financial advising before the May 1 commitment deadline. Newsom said the state so values expanding college access that it allocated $47.1 billion for higher education, the largest single-year investment ever, in the last enacted budget. In his proposed 2022-23 budget, Newsom calls for funding to increase UC seats for California students by more than 7,000, including hundreds more seats annually at highdemand UC Berkeley, UCLA and UC San Diego, from 2023-24 through 2026-27. The California State University system would receive funding for 14,000 additional seats during that time. UC and Cal State have agreed, in turn, to close equity gaps in graduation, expand access for transfer students, improve college affordability and provide more graduates for the state’s high-need fields of climate action, health care, education and technology. “The State’s public higher education system drives equitable and upward mobility, helping first-generation and lowerincome Californians realize their full educational and professional potential,” Newsom’s letter said. “It also prepares the workforces needed to secure the state’s current and future economic success and confront its hardest challenges, including the climate crisis and global pandemics.”

House passes bill to help veterans exposed to toxins Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — The House voted 256-174 Thursday to pass a bill that would overhaul benefits for veterans exposed to toxic substances during their service, but the many differences with the Senate version of the measure raise questions about whether it has a chance of being enacted into law. The bill received support from 34 Republicans despite the criticism from most of their party members that it was too expensive. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif, scoffed at Republicans who refused to support the bill (HR 3967) sponsored by House Veterans’ Affairs Chair Mark Takano, D-Calif., because of budget concerns. “It’s a cost of war,”

Pelosi said at her Thursday news conference. “For the Republicans to go to the floor and say their veterans really don’t want this help with their health because it’s going to cost money and they’re more concerned about the budget . . . than they are about their health, oh really? You just gave tax cuts in 2017 to the richest people in America. Tax cuts for the rich, cancer for our veterans. That’s how we see this discussion and this debate.” Takano said after the vote the Senate would find the votes to pass the House bill if it came to the floor because more than 40 prominent veterans organizations support it. Takano said he was willing to go to conference on the bill, but that a Senate floor vote left open to amendments would

be quicker. “There’s no reason not to act on what we got,” Takano said. He said he’d like to see the process done by Memorial Day. The Senate in February passed a less expensive bill (S 3541) sponsored by Senate Veterans’ Affairs Chairman Jon Tester, D-Mont., who called his bill an incremental step and said his committee is working on additional legislation. The House legislation would establish that several respiratory diseases and cancers are directly linked to military toxic exposure, a move that would make it easier for veterans to get disability benefits through the VA. The bill would increase direct benefit payments by $208 billion over a decade, according to the Congres-

sional Budget Office. A provision of new health care benefits, financed through the annual appropriations process, and VA administrative costs could require another $114 billion. The Senate bill would expand health care to more veterans who served in areas with known toxic exposure, but wouldn’t provide disability compensation. It would cost $1 billion over a decade. But House Democrats say the Senate bill wouldn’t help enough veterans – just 16,000 out of the 3.5 million potentially eligible Iraq and Afghanistan veterans. The White House also supports the House bill. The House vote came after lawmakers adopted several amendments Thursday morning, including one by North

Carolina Democratic Rep. Deborah Ross that would require the Defense Department to report on the chemicals used on military installations other than aqueous filmforming foam, and any recommendations about expanding eligibility for the VA disability registry to individuals exposed to such chemicals. The House also adopted California Democratic Rep. Raul Ruiz’s amendment that would require the VA to ensure that a family member or designated individual can update the burn pit registry if a person on the registry dies; and one from Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, that would require the Veterans Affairs Department to report quarterly to Congress on each reported case of a veteran’s burn pit exposure.

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 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 to the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee. 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. BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): FE S. BRANTLEY, AN UNMARRIED WOMAN Recorded: 12/29/1997 as Instrument No. 1997-00087378 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of SOLANO County, California; Date of Sale: 4/6/2022 at 9:00 AM Place of Sale: At the Santa Clara St. Entrance of the Vallejo City Hall, located at 555 Santa Clara Street, Vallejo, CA 94590 Amount of unpaid balance and other charges: $60,796.40 The purported property address is: 1630 QUAIL DRIVE, FAIRFIELD, CA 94533 Assessor's Parcel No.: 0170-113-380 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 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-21-894446-AB. 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 website. 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 800-280-2832, or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-21-894446-AB to find the date on which the trustee's 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 trustee's sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee's 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. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. 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. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary's Agent, or the Beneficiary's Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right's against the real property only.
