Parents ponder summer camps, classes at Vaca recreation expo Susan Hiland

SHILAND@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

VACAVILLE — Summertime is around the corner and the city is gearing up for camps and classes to keep children entertained.

“We wanted to get out here as soon as possible to get the kids signed up for summer classes and camps,” Bridget Hough of Vacaville said Saturday during the city’s Recreation Expo.

She has four children and her son, Edward, 7, is already in the music class and having a fun time.

“Most classes fill up fast. We wanted to get in early,” Hough said.

The Vacaville Recreation Expo usually draws hundreds for a chance to sign up early and see what camps, classes and clinics the city is offering for the summer.

“I am so excited to be able to do this again,” said Kerry Walker, director of Parks and Recreation. “We weren’t sure it was going to happen in January.”

But they were able make use of the Ulatis Community Center.

The four-hour event offered games, raffles and opportunities for children and adults. The city received $100,000 this year for scholarships to Youth Programs through Measure M. “Each family can receive $1,000 to go to the cost of classes,” Walker said.

“There should be no barrier to a kid being able to enjoy the city programs,” City Councilman Michael Silva said.

Parents check out the summer camps and classes that Vacaville is offering during the city’s Recreation Expo at Ulatis Community Center, Saturday.

FAIRFIELD — Gary St. Vincent and his wife, Theodora, plan to celebrate their 35th wedding anniversary this year.

The couple has three children and a 6-year-old granddaughter.

St. Vincent hopes to be able to watch his granddaughter grow up, but the 60-year-old auto shop teacher at Fairfield High School is in need of a kidney transplant.

He just completed his first week of in-center treatments

at the DaVita Fairfield Dialysis Center after about two years of home treatments.

He goes three times a week.

Each session lasts three to four hours.

Dialysis is a treatment for kidney failure that removes waste and extra fluids from the blood through use of a filter.

“This is no way to live,” St. Vincent said in a phone interview during one of those sessions.

An avid swimmer, St. Vincent is no longer able to enjoy that activity.

“I enjoyed swimming.

That was my passion. After having to do dialysis, I could no longer swim because I have a tube in my stomach, so I can’t swim in pools or lakes,” St. Vincent said.

The tube was inserted for use in his home peritoneal dialysis treatments.

He could dip into the ocean if he chose to do so due to the saltwater, and he does do some cycling.

St. Vincent is able, however, to continue with another passion, which is See Donor, Page A9

Cease-fire in 2 southern Ukrainian cities falls apart Tribune Content Agency KYIV, Ukraine — Russia’s invasion of Ukraine entered its 10th day on Saturday with a ceasefire quickly falling apart in two besieged southern cities and Russian President Vladimir Putin warning that any no-fly zone imposed over Ukrainian skies “would bring catastrophic results not only to Europe, but to the whole world.”

As Russia continued shelling civilian targets and Ukrainian protesters defiantly waved blue and yellow flags in multiple

A man runs in front of a house burning after being shelled in the city of Irpin, outside Kyiv, Friday.

Russian-occupied cities, Putin said Western sanctions that have sent the ruble tumbling are “akin

to declaring war” and he also threatened to strip Ukraine of its statehood if it continues to resist the

invading army.

“If they continue to do what they are doing, they are calling into question the future of Ukrainian statehood,” Putin said during a televised meeting with flight attendants from Russian airline Aeroflot, which has been forced to ground nearly all of its international flights because of the Western sanctions. “And if this happens, it will be entirely on their conscience.”

Putin has repeatedly sought to blame Ukrainian leadership for fueling the unprovoked invasion, while stepping up censor-

If you like them, you shouldn’t criticize them. To her, me griping about missed free throws by Andrew Wiggins is like me criticizing one of our sons.

When I grumble, “That’s a terrible shot!” or bark, “throw a freaking strike!” she tells me to stop being negative. Ultimately, when another shot goes in or the pitcher gets out of the jam or the quarterback throws a touchdown pass, she tells me I didn’t believe in them.

I say I believed in them. My criticism was valid! (So I say.)

We just see things differently.

Like my love of early 1970s pop music. Or her enjoyment of “Project Runway.” Or our differing opinions about yogurt.

As we near our 37th anniversary, the differences are what keep it interesting, I guess. But everything would be perfect if the Warriors would get into their offense quicker and Giants pitchers would throw strikes and the 49ers stopped committing pass interference penalties.

Which is negative. Or valid criticisms. (So I say.)

Solano reports 2 Covid-related deaths: 1 vaxed, 1 unvaxed Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Solano County expects to receive a significant report of previously unreported cases that were identified through a different testing procedure.

But Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said the additions do not change the county’s continued decline in case trends.

There were two more Covid-related deaths reported Friday. A man over 65, living at home and vaccinated, was one of the reports, while a man between 50 and 65, living at home and unvaccinated, also died. Both had significant health issues, but the younger man apparently was unaware of his problems.

The two deaths take the pandemic total to 398, the county reported.

The county reported Friday there were 138newcases–102sincethe previous report Wednesday – taking the pandemic total to 79,678.

The number shows the case rate for the previous two days was 51 per day, up from 36.5 Wednesday. The 10-day daily average inched up slightly from 54.4 to 56.7 with 567 active cases.

The seven-day positivity testing rate dropped from 8% to 7%, the county reported.

Fairfield added 40 cases to take its total to 21,281. Vallejo was up

Aaron Rosenblatt/Daily Republic

A pedestrian wearing a face mask walks along the Vallejo Waterfront, Friday.

51 cases to 24,911. Vacaville was at 19,445 cases after 29 new reports, the county stated.

Suisun City (5,590) and Dixon (4,193) each had five new cases; Benicia (3,024) added six; and Rio Vista (1,073) added two. There were no new cases reported in the unincorporated area, the county stated.

Vaccinations continue to climb very slowly as Matyas reports a plateau in shots received.

The percentage of residents 5 or older who have been fully vaccinated holds at 72% and the percentage of that population that has received at least one shot holds at 82%, the county reported. There have been 148,446 booster shots administered, up 68 since Wednesday.

Thirty-three percent of residents ages 5 to 11 have received a vaccine shot,

up slightly from 32.8%.

on weekends. The next update is scheduled late Monday afternoon.

Shirley Ann Moore

Sept. 16, 1938 — Jan. 29, 2022

Shirley Ann Moore passed away at the Fairfield Post-Acute Rehab, where she met all the loving and caring group of individuals that she came to know.

She was born at Oak Park Hospital in Chicago, Illinois. Shirley attended La Puente High School, and never missed one day during the four-year term.

She married and later was baptized at the Community Presbyterian Church. They had two daughters, Susan and Julie.

Throughout the years, they kept involved in their school activities. Shirley was a Girl Scout leader, and a manager of a Bobby Sox baseball team, while her husband was the coach.

She loved visiting with her Mom after church with her daughters, and bringing her an Easter lily on Palm Sundays.

She also looked forward to her visits with her brothers, sisters, brother-in-laws and sister-in-laws for a cup of coffee, while catching up on all the family news in Southern California.

Shirley enjoyed preparing holiday meals for her large family, and was proud of everyone. She enjoyed music, Hallmark movies and seeing concerts in Reno-Tahoe.

She worked in the banking industry for many years.

Shirley is survived by her daughter, Susie Moore; and several nieces, nephews, brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law and an ex son-in-law and his family.

Shirley is preceded in death by her daughter, Julie; husband, Ronnie; brothers, Arnold and Robert; sisters, Barb and Maxine; parents, Maximilian and Ellen (Elinor); and the rest of her family, who she never forgot in her heart.

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.

William ‘Bill’ Richard Hale July 5, 1946 — Feb. 20, 2022

Bill passed away unexpectedly at home on his ranch on Feb. 20, 2022. He was born in Sacramento, California.

Bill graduated from Armijo High School in 1964 where he was an athlete in both track and field and football.

Following graduation, he served in the National Guard for four years before returning to his roots in the Suisun Valley where he went into farming on his family’s property, Hale Ranch.

He would go onto farm a variety of crops with his largest focuses being safflower, wheat, sugar beets and beans. Bill was awarded ‘Top Five Sugar Producers’ in 1996 and ‘Outstanding Sugar Producer’ in 1997 by Spreckels Sugar.

He married Lorie (Flannery) in September 1988. They were married for 26 years before Lorie’s passing in 2014.

During their marriage they had one daughter, Billie, born in April 1989.

Aside from his passion for agriculture, he enjoyed many hobbies such as aviation, hunting, fishing, day-trips with his wife Lorie, and his love for black Labrador retrievers.

During his early years, Bill enjoyed trips to Colorado for deer hunting with friends; in addition he was an active duck, pheasant and dove hunter. Bill also took frequent trips to Liberty Island for catfishing with his family.

He was a member of the Native Sons of the Golden West Solano #39.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Thomas D. and Mary Ione (Mangels); and sister, Mary Ann. We encourage all who knew Bill to help us remember him in a celebration of life at 1:30 p.m. Friday, March 11, 2022, at Bryan-Braker Funeral Home, 1850 W. Texas St., Fairfield.

Reception to follow.

The family kindly requests that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the SPCA, an organization both Bill and Lorie were donors to for many years.

Arrangements under the care of Bryan-Braker Funeral Home, 707-425-4697.

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.

No public service will be held, as the family wishes to privately celebrate Peggy’s life.

Inglebrights offer ‘bright spot’ to Fairfield cannabis industry Matt Miller

Daily Republic Staff

MMILLER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Jim and Valerie Inglebright are now in the business of cannabis with the opening of The Bright Spot, a 7,000-square-foot dispensary, after years in the business of cars.

“Here our customers are happy,” Jim Inglebright joked during Thursday’s soft opening.

“If they are not happy, that’s a lot easier to fix.”

The longtime Fairfield couple have been taking care of automobiles through their current Roadrunner Towing and former American Auto Body Specialist businesses.

Now they have spent more than a year earning city approval and sifting through the stiff regulations that come with the world of cannabis.

“I’ve been a bit edgy for over a year,” Jim Inglebright said.

“You have to make sure you cross all the Ts and dote all the Is. But once you open the doors to customers that edginess all goes away.”

The Bright Spot sits at 1990 Walters Court with a staff of 20 employees who cover delivery, dispatch, sales, inventory and operations. They also have a controller and a general manager.

Security is tight with armed guards on site during business hours. There are security cameras throughout the building and “roll-up doors” to lock it up “tight as a box” at night, Jim Inglebright said.

“Everything has been as scheduled and we have kept everything according to plan,” Valerie Inglebright said. “It’s overwhelming to be here. We’re very fortunate. It’s a great, fun atmosphere.”

Napa-Solano SBDC offers new online programs DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The SolanoNapa Small Business Development Center is offering free online training in marketing, human resources, sales and social media during the month of March.

March 17. This is part of the Human Resources workshop series. As of Jan. 1, there are new compliance requirements.

ABOVE: Customers shop at The Bright Spot in Fairfield, Thursday.

LEFT: Products are on display at The Bright Spot in Fairfield.

The Inglebrights had to win approval from the City Council like all the “pot shops” in the city. They presented a 200page report and got unanimous 7-0 approval.

In their council report, the Inglebrights project sales of $7.7 million the first year to $11.8 million in the third. Jobs were anticipated to pay $14 an hour for hourly employees and on up to $45,000 for salaried employees.

“I think it will bring big revenue to the city,” said Councilman Scott Tonnesen, who was present at the opening. “It’s

a huge benefit. All four shops that have opened have pledged to give 1 or 2 % to nonprofits.”

“It’s a very welcome and inviting environment here,” said Councilwoman Doriss Panduro, also at the opening. “I think it will help a very diverse community with their health and wellness needs.”

The Bright Spot offers vapes, topicals, gummy, edibles, mints, drinks, extract, bath salts and more. General manager Jacob Wulff has been alongside the Inglebrights from “dirt to dispensary.”

“There are so many different ways to consume the product,” Wulff said. “I’m so proud to be a part of it. We really want to cater to a diverse crowd, from older to younger. I’ve really

educated myself by talking to people, visiting trade shows and meeting vendors.”

The Inglebrights know the potential financial rewards but they also wanted to help their community. They saw firsthand how Valerie’s mother found great health benefits in taking the gummy version of cannabis.

“We really want to help our city,” Jim Inglebright said.

“We’re really focused on seniors and military folks who have had to deal with challenges in their lives. This is all about customers and meeting their needs. We’re a Mom and Pop shop. We’ll be here every day.”

He added: “Without the support of the community, this couldn’t have happened.”

NorthBay will open urgent care in Dixon Daily Republic Staff

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

DIXON — NorthBay Healthcare will bring urgent care and Covid-19 testing to Dixon residents when it opens its fourth center in the region this summer.

NorthBay Urgent Care, in collaboration with Carbon Health, a leading national health care provider, already operates centers in Fairfield and Vacaville, and will open a third facility in May in American Canyon.

business

NorthBay From Page A6 1305 Stratford Ave., will be in a commercial center just off Pitt School Road and Interstate 80. It will occupy 4,094 square feet of a former bank building, feature eight exam rooms, X-ray services, a laboratory and will offer Covid testing.

“NorthBay’s collaboration with Carbon Health to provide urgent care services throughout Solano County helps NorthBay fulfill its mission of providing innovative health care services to our community in a seamless service environment,” NorthBay Healthcare Group President Wayne Gietz said in a press release. “It’s the right care, when and where people need it most.”

It has proven popular with patients because it offers affordable, quality health care with shorter wait times and without the expense

associated with a visit to an emergency department, NorthBay President and CEO B. Konard Jones said in the press release.

“We will provide care for people of all ages, extending NorthBay’s standard for quality care, delivered by a team of clinical experts,” Jones said in the release.

The Dixon urgent care center will be similar to the others in that it will provide immediate medical attention for conditions that are not life-threatening such as strep throat, cellulitis, broken bones, shingles, hives, abrasions and bug or animal bites.

Most major insurance plans will be accepted, and a cash pay rate for the uninsured is available.

Once tenant improvements are complete this summer, the Dixon facility will offer an open and airy design and advanced technology kiosks for checking in. The clinic will include “Virtual Urgent Care,” allowing patients to use their

We’re hurt that our daughter didn’t tell us about her elopement but as a celebration and Dear Annie: About renewal of vows.

18 months ago, my My wife and I daughter, now 29, told were not overly upset my wife and me that she about their elopement. planned to get married However, we were very in October of this year. hurt that we were not The extended wait was told of this right away, so that her partner, or even two months “Chris,” whom she already lives with, could Annie Lane later at Christmas (during which there was finish graduate school.

Dear Annie much discussion of the They live about a sevenwedding). And the fact that we hour drive from us, so between that and Covid-19, we have seen did not merit a personal phone call or even a written letter or them only twice since then: at a family funeral last summer and email made us feel as if we were an afterthought. this past Christmas.

After we calmly expressed Fast-forward to three weeks after Christmas, and we received our thoughts and feelings to her, she said that they had decided to a postcard saying that they had get married early so Chris could gotten married in October! The get on her health care program postcard (with pre-printed info, as soon as possible. She said name and address) was clearly that the postcard was sent first one that was going to be sent to to us and Chris’ parents, and all who had earlier been given “save-the-date” announcements. others would receive it later. (I suppose she thought that our The postcard also stated that being first on the mailing list the original date was still on,

would make us feel better.) She also said that they waited to tell us because they “wanted time on our own.” At no point did she express concern for our feelings or regrets over how they handled the situation.

We were certainly sympathetic to the health care issue, and we felt that that would be a sound reason to marry earlier than planned. But because they live so far from most of their family and friends, and their communications with us and others are infrequent, her claim of wanting time on their own doesn’t make sense to us, especially since she knows that we would have respected any request of confidentiality. And lastly, to be informed of her marriage via a pre-printed postcard is, in our opinion, simply inexcusable.

Up to this point, we have always been very supportive of her life decisions and felt that

our communication with her has been very good. Now we don’t know what to think.

Are we right to feel upset and very hurt? We feel that our daughter should have been willing to admit that the whole incident should have been handled quite differently. What do you think? — Feeling Left Out Dear Left Out: Of course you are hurt and feel upset. But the tone of your letter makes it sound as if you would like to put your daughter on trial and have her admit to the jury that she handled her elopement all wrong. Isn’t that what elopement is? To run away and get married in secret?

It is understandable that you are disappointed by the way your daughter handled her wedding, but try to look at it from a different perspective.

Maybe she really is so happy because she has married the

love of her life. Maybe they wanted to start a family sooner rather than later and didn’t want to wait for a wedding.

Whatever the reason, the reality is that the marriage is between your daughter and her husband, so they are allowed to do it their way, as the Frank Sinatra song says.

Instead of focusing on your hurt feelings, try to focus on the upcoming wedding party and the newest member of your family – your son-in-law – as he renews his vows with your daughter. In the end, it is not always about the big fancy wedding – and there have been plenty of those that resulted in unhappy marriages. It is about the love that the couple feels for each other and the support they receive from their loved ones.

FOR YOUR HEALTH

by Holiday Mathis

Today’s birthday Charming and spontaneous, you’ll prove your mastery of the art of living in the moment. Your improvisations will make memories and sometimes money.

Summer sees you serious about a goal and dropping the distractions that compete for your focus. You’ll step up as your own boss, call shots and claim rewards. Leo and Sagittarius adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 10, 3, 33, 47 and 49.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll come to a situation in which you may seek authority, as it seems you need it to pass through the gate. But there is no universal ticket that will allow you to pass. Only you can authorize yourself.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). No matter how hard you try, you won’t be able to see yourself as well as the person sitting across from you. Ask that person for a little insight. It will give you an edge.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You crave honesty. The rawness of another will speak to your own. This is why you’ll find a vivid mess of a person more interesting than the one doing everything appropriately and correctly.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). When you like someone, you want to help and support them in any way they need.

But when you love someone, you want to dazzle them. This will take planning.

You’ll be excellent at it today.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). No, you’re not imagining it; people look to you to solve a problem. You’ve solved problems before, and they want you to do it again. In today’s case, this has to do with charming or entertaining them.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Things get a lot more interesting when they are delivered through mysterious or artful methods. The same discourse that causes the glazing over of eyeballs is made fascinating by the right messenger.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Solving new problems often takes a while as you fumble around to figure out what’s going to work. It’s not so today; you’ll get lucky early on with a good and graceful option.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The beginning of projects and relationships establish the tone and rhythm of what follows. You’ll have more influence when you get in on things in the early stages.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Ever since you went looking for your happiness and didn’t find it, you’ve been wondering if someone moved it, stole it, scared it off . . . or what? It’s waiting inside a job you can take on to help someone.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Emotional and karmic tabulations can be much trickier to figure out than your runof-the-mill financial debt. Try to agree on a currency, though, and you’ll be on your way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re sly as a spy. You’re paying attention to more than you appear to be. Sights in your periphery will inform. You’ll learn something crucial as you pretend not to notice it at all.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you knew it was impossible for you to lose anything that was essentially yours, how would you play it? Would you relax?

Would you gain tremendous confidence?

Would you take a risk?

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Pisces basketball star Shaquille O’Neal is widely regarded as one of the best centers of all time as well as being a respected sports analyst, rapper and spokesman. Mercury and Venus in Aries, the warrior planet, are the aspect of a competitive spirit.

Mars in Taurus represents strength, consistency, stability and money. Jupiter in Capricorn also bodes well for material wealth.

National Nutrition Month a celebration of flavors

There are plenty of ways to learn more about the world beyond what we are accustomed to, and food is one of them.

Rema El-Mahmoud

SPECIAL TO THE DAILY REPUBLIC

ational Nutrition Month has been celebrated each year in the month of March since 1980. This month is an opportunity for people to learn more about food, how to create healthier eating habits and increase physical activity. National Nutrition Month this year is honoring cultures and celebrating heritages as a tasty way to nourish our bodies and appreciate our diversity.

Food is more than nourishment: it shapes our lives, our experiences and our identities. Some of our best memories are centered on sharing meals such as celebrating a holiday or major milestone, or simply having dinner every night with your family. Food has the power to connect and bring people together. When we take the time to learn about other cultures’ food, the closer we can be to understanding and respecting their history and the more creative we can be with our own cooking.

We often associate cultures and countries with certain foods, whether it is sushi from Japan, curry from India or pasta from Italy. However, there are

many other recipes and ingredients from regions around the world that we may not have heard of or had the chance to taste. Trying different foods, textures and flavors is one of the best ways to understand cultural identity and gain new food experiences.

If you are looking for ways to step out of your comfort zone and explore new cultures and flavors through food, here are a few things you can do: Traveling may not be an easy option for everyone, but if you have a chance to visit another country, try eating with locals. Asking about local cuisine and its history is a great way to learn about people’s culture and traditions. Food in other countries is often influenced by agriculture, climate and hardships of the region, as well as religion and customs in the area.

If traveling is not a possibility, a budget-friendly option would be to visit an international market. Here you will find people from many different backgrounds. You might even come across fruits and vegetables you have never seen before and spices you have never tasted. This is a great place to interact with people and ask for tips and ideas on how ingredients can be used in different cultural recipes. The vendors are also knowledgeable and are willing

to share information on where foods originated from and how they are used in meals.

Finally, gathering your friends and hosting a potluck is a fun and easy way to learn more about each other.

Encouraging everyone to bring a dish from their country of origin is a great way to build stronger connections and appreciate each other’s heritage and family traditions.

There are plenty of ways to learn more about the world beyond what we are accustomed to, and food is one of them. Experimenting with different cuisines, flavors and ingredients gives you a better appreciation and respect for other cultures and can inspire your own cooking and food experiences.

Incorporating new recipes and flavors is not only a great way to add options to your weekly meal plans, but also helps uplift cultures from around the world.

Celebrating our diversity by embracing different foods builds cultural humility, strengthens our community and creates new traditions to pass on to the next generation.

“It is nice to see people out,” he said.

Air Blair Athletics was outside with basketball hoops for young and older players to get a taste of their classes. Coach Shaun Blair has been offering basketball and other sports camps throughout the county.

“We teach the importance of skills, sportsmanship, teamwork, respect and self-confidence,” Blair said. “Air Blair Athletics offers programming in basketball, football and T-ball.”

Blair’s charges have

had to change venues several times to practice and hold games.

The pandemic has made skrimmages difficult because of the 6-foot rules but they have not stopped practicing or playing.

The good news is if parents missed out on signups this weekend for city programs and classes, they still have until Monday to receive a 10% discount on the classes. Parents also can fill out an application for the Youth Program Scholarship. Parents can sign up after that as long as the classes have space.

Police: Family member finds missing Fairfield teen dead Daily Republic Staff

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — A Fairfield teen was found dead Saturday – a week after he disappeared, police report.

Joven Henry, 17, was classified by police as a runaway when he left home around 3:20 p.m.

Feb. 26 on the 2400 block of Bickford Court.

Henry was found

Donor From Page One teaching students about automotive care, a passion he developed as a child growing up in Trinidad, and later practiced for 27 years with UPS. “I was an automotive supervisor when I retired, and I did 14 years as a mechanic,” St. Vincent said.

“My mother told me to work with my hands,” St. Vincent said about his start with working on cars. “And my sister got me a job with Toyota and that was that.”

St. Vincent is the youngest of seven siblings, two sisters of whom have died, including one from complications with diabetes. The others are all in their 70s. One brother did attempt to qualify as a donor but had a health issue that did not allow him to donate a kidney even if he had been a match.

Diabetes is what caused St. Vincent’s kidney failure, and is the most common cause of kidney disease, the National Kidney Founda-

Cities From Page One Volodymyr Zelenskyy has continued to plead for additional international assistance, telling nearly 300 U.S. lawmakers from both chambers of Congress on Saturday that his country desperately needs more. In particular, according to a congressman on the call, he asked for supplies of fighter aircraft – namely older Russian planes that Poland, Bulgaria and Romania possess and which Ukrainian pilots already know how to operate.

While the U.S. and other NATO countries have held off in declaring a no-fly zone over Ukraine out of fear that it would dramatically escalate the war, U.S. lawmakers from across the political spectrum appear eager to provide Ukraine with more armaments.

Rep. John Garamendi, D-Walnut Grove, who was in the virtual meeting with Zelenskyy, said in an interview that it was “more than possible” for the aircraft to be transferred to Ukraine and called for swift passage in Congress of a $10 billion emergency aid package for Ukraine and NATO allies.

Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., said he also supports sending fighter aircraft to Ukraine.

“Ukraine needs air power urgently and America should send it,” Sasse said in a statement.

“Americans should absolutely send Ukrainians planes, helicopters and (drones). Let’s resupply Ukraine’s air force today.”

The rising geopolitical tensions – which were further heightened Saturday when Russian customs officials announced they had arrested an American pro basketball star, identified as Brittney Griner of the WNBA’s

Saturday in the hills north of Cement Hill and Clay Bank roads.

Police suspect Henry killed himself.

HENRY The family contacted authorities immediately after Henry was found. Police and firefighters confirmed the

teen was dead.

The manner of Henry’s death was not released. Detectives were called in to preserve the scene and to determine what had occurred.

Police encourage anyone who may be considering suicide to reach out to family, friends, their church or

appropriate health care professionals. They also recommend using the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) – or1-888-628-9454forthose who speak Spanish; text “Hello” to 741741; or call the Teen Line at 1-800-TLC-TEEN (852-8336) or text “Teen” to 839863.

tion reports. Both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes can cause kidney disease.

Chronic, uncontrolled high blood pressure, chronic glomerulonephritis – an inflammation and eventual scarring of the tiny filters within a kidney – and polycystic kidney disease – when noncancerous sacs containing water-like fluid grow in a kidney – are also common causes, the Mayo Clinic reports.

Heart disease and obesity often contribute to the problem.

St. Vincent said his five years as a teacher have been rewarding, teaching students who did not know the difference between a “quarter-inch ratchet wrench and a spark plug” and watching them learn and develop their own passions for auto care.

St. Vincent recently told some of his colleagues and other school officials about his condition, something that was necessary in the event he would miss time due to his illness or, more hopefully, if he were to get a kidney transplant.

“They (medical officials) told me it could take two years or more

to get a donor and this month will be two years.

So I’m really hopeful,” St. Vincent said.

The average wait time on the list is 3.6 years, according to the National Kidney Foundation.

Learning about his condition has motivated a couple of his colleagues to begin campaigning for possible donors to step up.

David Shadduck, a biology teacher at Fairfield High, has sent a letter to the school staff, and Regina Williams, the school librarian, is reaching out to the public for help.

“He’s a really nice guy,” Williams said of St. Vincent. But she said he is showing signs of decline.

She noted his illness goes beyond his own health because when he is unable to teach class, there is no substitute auto shop teacher available.

“Then the kids wouldn’t be able to work on the cars,” she said.

Instead, they go to a classroom or library and read about working on cars.

Still, Williams’ focus is getting possible donors to step up and be tested for being a possible match.

There are more than 100,000 people in the

United States waiting for a kidney transplant, according to the Kidney Donation website. Of all the individuals who are on a transplant waiting list, 82% are waiting for a kidney.

In 2014, 17,107 kidney transplants took place in the U.S., the National Kidney Foundation reported.

The most common donor is someone who has died.

Skye Azevedo, the administrative assistant at the DaVita clinic in Cordelia, said it is a joyous occasion when a patient gets a transplant.

“We’ve had quite a few who have been transplanted and that is always an exciting thing around here,” said Azevedo, who said the clinic currently sees about 124 patients.

They have other clients who do home treatments.

St. Vincent gets his treatment through a temporary connector in his shoulder but may soon have to have a permanent stent placed in his arm.

He is very much hoping to have his transplant before that is necessary.

“This is something I really don’t want to live with,” St. Vincent said.

Phoenix Mercury, on drug charges at a Moscow airport last month – come amid the swift breakdown of a cease-fire agreement meant to allow the exit of civilians from war zones.

The cease-fire had been set to begin at 9 a.m.

Kyiv time under an agreement with the Ukrainian government, the Russian Defense Ministry said, making it the first concrete sign of cooperation between the two sides after they decided in negotiations this week to create humanitarian corridors aimed at evacuating civilians from conflict areas.

Pavlo Kirilenko, head of the Ukrainian government’s regional military administration in the eastern province of Donetsk, confirmed the cease-fire and evacuation of Mariupol in a post on Facebook. The city of Volnovakha was also covered by the agreement.

But about an hour after the evacuation began, at 11 a.m. Kyiv time, Russian forces resumed shelling, making it impossible to move people out safely, Mariupol’s deputy mayor said. By 1 p.m., the Donetsk regional administration suspended the evacuation effort, with residents advised to head to shelters and abandon the gathering points where municipal buses were to spirit them out of the city.

The designated safe corridor from Mariupol was supposed to stretch about 140 miles northwest to the city of Zaporizhzhia, close to the site of a nuclear power plant that was set ablaze during shelling Friday. Kirilenko said it was “strictly forbidden to deviate from the route of the humanitarian corridor.”

Before the evacuation began, he called on residents with their own vehicles to “take people with you, fill your vehicle as much as possible.”

The announcement of

the cease-fire agreement came as Russian forces have pressed the attack in Ukraine’s south, the one area of the country where their campaign appears to be making gains.

Mariupol, a southeastern port city of nearly 450,000 people, has suffered a relentless Russian barrage for days and appears to be surrounded.

Photos and video published by the Associated Press showed a hospital filled with young victims who could not be saved: an 18-monthold baby named Kirill, a teen boy struck by bombs while playing soccer with friends, a 6-year-old girl who died in her pajamas.

The bombardment of the city – which has left many without electricity, water and food – halted briefly when the cease-fire began but soon started up again, Mariupol’s deputy mayor, Sergei Orlov, told the BBC. “At first our people told (us) that the shelling stops for a little time, but then it continues, and they continue to use hard artillery and rockets to bomb Mariupol. That’s why people are very scared,” Orlov said.

A takeover of the city would further consolidate Russia’s gains on the Black Sea coast and create an overland link with Crimea, which Moscow annexed illegally in 2014. That would then serve as a springboard for an all-out assault on Odesa, the crown jewel of Ukraine’s coastal cities.

Despite the attempted cease-fires in the south, fighting persisted elsewhere in the country Saturday.

Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city and a prime target of Russia’s assault over the last 10 days, saw another bout of shelling in the early morning, with observers on social media reporting rocket attacks in the city. Local news outlets also reported shelling in the city of

Sumy, about 90 miles northwest of Kharkiv.

In the village of Markhalivka, 13 miles southwest of Kyiv’s center and ostensibly near a humanitarian corridor allowing residents to escape the capital, an airstrike Friday left a rubble-filled crater and killed six people – including a 12-year-old girl.

Her father, Igor Majayev, a 54-year-old driver, sifted through the ruins of what had been his two-story home on Saturday.

“What can I say?” he said, pausing for a moment to take in the totality of the destruction. When the strike happened, Majayev was lying down in the room next to where his daughter, Masha, was sleeping.

“This was her wheelchair,” he said in a daze.

Now, she’s dead. So is his wife, Anya. Two grandchildren, 7 and 8 years old, were injured and taken to a hospital in nearby Vasylkiv.

“Never in my life did I imagine this situation, and from Russia,” he said.

“Western countries warned us, but we just didn’t believe this would happen.”

More than 10,000 Russian soldiers have been killed or injured, and hundreds of military units have been destroyed in the fighting as well as other tactical equipment, Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov wrote on Facebook. The figures could not be independently verified.

Russia has acknowledged that about 500 of its soldiers have been killed and 1,500 injured.

The civilian death toll is also mounting. The United Nations’ office for human rights said 331 civilians have been killed and 675 injured since the start of hostilities Feb. 24 up until Thursday, but the agency says that is almost certainly an undercount.

Solano EDC president says his new role comes at right time in his life MATT MILLER MMILLER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

hris Rico said it’s kismet that landed him the role of a lifetime as the new president and CEO of the Solano Economic Development Corporation.

The 51-year-old Hollywood native said his life has been scripted to take on this new adventure after many years of varied experiences. His resume includes work as a music promotor, a career in film and television development and production, spending time assisting political campaigns and serving a stint as a special needs educator.

He jokes his back now hurts after becoming 51, but he also says, “I’m more comfortable in my skin.” There are things in his life he once cared about and they don’t bother him anymore, and he is more apt to just “go with the flow.”

“Doing so many different things I have learned how they are all interconnected,” Rico said.

“I think it has made me more of a pragmatist with a need to solve problems.

We’re in the business of prosperity and I now think I can help businesses and people prosper.”

Rico started his new job Jan. 18. Sean Quinn, the retired Fairfield city manager, had served as the interim president/ CEO since last summer during the search for a full-time leader. Bob Burris had the role previously before becoming the economic development officer at Rural County Representatives of Cali-

The word is beshert.

It’s a Yiddish term.

Loosely translated, it means “soulmate” or “destiny” and it emerged as the best way to describe what happened on a Saturday afternoon in Boynton Beach.

Phyllis Felsenfeld and Elaine Wyler, who were close friends in elementary school at PS (Public School) 130 in Brooklyn from 1945 to 1949, reunited for the first time in 73 years.

“It’s amazing,” Elaine said. “I’m still in a daze.”

Beshert also best describes the initial June 2020 meeting between Phyllis’ and Elaine’s grandchildren, Alex Horowitz (Phyllis’ grandson) and Carly Gorodetzky (Elaine’s granddaughter), who are engaged to be married in January. They were set up on a date because Alex’s parents happened to move into a neighborhood near Carly’s

father’s childhood best friend. And although Alex and Carly have known each other for more than a year it wasn’t until last week they discovered their grandmothers were close friends as children.

And beshert describes another amazing factoid that wasn’t discovered until now – 86-year-old Elaine and 86-year-old Phyllis were born two days apart. Elaine, whose maiden name is Lowin, turns 87 March 10; Phyllis, whose maiden name is Kamil, turns 87 March 12.

The reunion, which happened at Alex’s parents’ house, featured hugs, tears, laughs and recollections.

Phyllis said she and Elaine would play jacks, pickup sticks, and punch ball at school among other childhood games.

After school, they’d hang out at each other’s houses. They recalled the roller-skating rink

Some of their recollections were sparked by a class photo, others were stirred by a school album filled with signatures and well wishes Phyllis brought.

“Not everybody saves these things,” Phyllis said.

On one of those pages was a poem Elaine wrote to Phyllis, her good friend: “We had some fun, We laughed a lot, And, oh, the trouble in which we got.

And now that we must go away, I hope I see you again some day.

“You remember this,” Phyllis said to Elaine as she showed her a picture.

“This is when we were really best friends.”

Elaine nodded, later quipping with a smile, “I’m starting to feel old.”

This entire experience is mind-blowing for the two families, including the part where Elaine and Phyllis unknowingly reared their children a few minutes apart. Elaine lived in the Oyster Bay section of Long Island while Phyllis lived in Jericho.

Now, they live about 20 minutes apart, Elaine in Boca Raton and Phyllis in Tamarac.

Alex and Carly owe their introduction to another among the numerous coincidences in the story.

“I think many people who drive through here are ignorant of what the area has to offer,” Rico said. “They may know Jelly Belly, or have memories of the Nut Tree, know about the Budweiser plant and are familiar with Travis Air Force Base because they see the signs.

That’s when they decided to put Phyllis and Elaine on a FaceTime call.

“It was very emotional,” Alex said. “I was almost coming to tears myself.”

That’s when they decided they needed to get the women together for a face-to-face meeting, and that meeting took place Saturday. The women hope it’s the first of many lunches and meetings.

The bizarre thing is if Alex and Carly wouldn’t have met with Elaine last weekend and put the pieces together, it’s likely Phyllis and Elaine would have attended the wedding in January, been introduced to each other as Phyllis Felsenfeld and Elaine Wyler, and never known they were Phyllis Kamil and Elaine Lowin, close childhood friends.

It’s beshert.

“I think they would appreciate more how their quality of life would change if there were more good jobs available to them, closer to home,” Rico said. “It would also be a way to support local businesses. That’s a lot of lost revenue.”

Rico currently lives in Napa but has plans to eventually move into Solano County. He and his partner Rafa have really taken to the area. They love to ride bikes, explore music, art and culture and take in the geography.

“It’s amazing,” Rico said. “The geography is spectacular. There are so many interesting things here. When it’s green like this, it reminds me of Ireland or New Zealand.”

He’s ready for the new challenge, after finally leaving the Los Angeles lifestyle.

“The challenge is in marketing cities like Dixon and Vallejo,” he said. “They couldn’t be much more different.

There is so much opportunity here. It’s so good for me to come in here with a fresh set of eyes. I don’t have the baggage of what hasn’t happened here and I can look at what the opportunities are.”

Firefighters battle a blaze at Pepperbelly’s Comedy Club in Fairfield, January 2012. Comedian Honest John’s name can be seen on the marquee.

Harbor Theater comedy series picks up where Pepperbelly’s left off Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

SUISUN CITY — The name of comic headliner Honest John could be seen on the Pepperbelly’s Club marquee as flames engulfed the popular downtown Fairfield entertainment venue Jan. 25, 2013.

Nine years later, Honest John will headline the two-show opening night of a new Phat Saturday monthly comedy series, March 19, at the Harbor Theater in Suisun City. Regina Givens – who shook the joint with her 10-minute routine as part of a two-night event in February – will open the shows.

“We will be providing 20 free tickets to medical front-line workers and first-responders at every one of our monthly comedy shows,” said Drew Byrdsong, who is promoting the event.

The TV special has yet to be aired, but Byrdsong said the event was so well received Harbor Theater officials approached him and his partners – comic Nuf Ced, who will host the Harbor show, and rapper and hip-hop artist Infamous Kaboo (Kaboo Jackson) – about producing a monthly series.

“We had 14 comedians over two nights,” Byrdsong said about the Feb. 11-12 event.

“And it brought down the house.”

Nuf Ced, Shenise and OJ the Joke Man – all Fairfield products – were part of those shows. Byrdsong, an Armijo High

“I’m a musician. I’m a rapper (who) goes by the name 2 EZ,” Birdsong said.

But he became frustrated with not getting the kind of bookings he wanted, so he started to promote his own shows, and with that, his promotion business, Bosses Table, was launched. He works under the company name, Byrdsong Enterprises.

It was Infamous Kaboo, also a Fairfield resident who was born in Oakland and raised in San Francisco, who introduced Byrdsong to Nuff Ced, whose real name is Michael T. McGreevy.

“I realized he had the same drive for

comedy that I have for music, so we put our heads together and came up with our first event,” Byrdsong said.

Honest John, whose real name is John Basinger, launched his career in the Los Angeles area in the late-1980s. It was not long before he would appear on Comicview and Showtime at the Apollo and had a twoyear run on the Def Comedy Jam tour.

Givens is being brought back by popular demand.

“She really blew it up (at the February show) . . . so everyone wanted to see her do a longer set, so we are bringing her back,” Byrdsong said.

Byrdsong said comedy is not a big reach for him because while growing up, some of his favorite programs were the comedy shows, including Comicview and Def Comedy Jam. The producers also have guaranteed an April 16 show, though the contracts with those headlines have not been completed so Byrdsong declined to release the names at this time.

He said there is no set number of months the series will run, but he hopes it will be an ongoing event.

“They (Harbor Theater officials) just asked if we could do a monthly comedy show,” he said.

Performing Arts presented Elephant & Piggie’s “We Are In A Play!” for choreographer and educator Shay Rodgers, who is a choreographer with iTheatrics and a staff member at Houston’s High School for the Performing and Visual Arts; music director and vocal coach Tali Allen, artistic director of Muny Kids and Teens; and educator Nicholas Sostillio, a director at Warner Robins High School theater.

“Mo Willems characters have become modern classics in elementary schools. On The Fringe Visual and Performing Arts did his books proud by bringing them to life,” Sostillio said in a press release. “Their presentation showed me that On The Fringe Visual and Performing Arts has a place for everyone, no matter what their background. It is clear their goal is to be a safe space for all students.”

Starbound Theatre presented “Disney’s Moana Jr.” for Khalia Davis, artistic director of Bay Area Children’s Theatre; Steven G. Kennedy, iTheatrics vice president of publication and choreography supervisor; and Cindy Ripley, senior education consultant at iTheatrics.

“I loved their creative and culturally specific choreography to support the world they built during their performance,” Davis said in the press release about Starbound Theatre. “It’s clear this program takes the work seriously. There is dedication to honoring the original cultural stewards this work is modeled after. It was a beautiful performance.”

“Starbound Theatre’s production of ‘Disney’s Moana Jr.’ was simply spectacular,” Kennedy said in the press relesase. “The strong ensemble and beautiful cultural choreography was a joy for everyone to watch. Seeing their presentation made me realize that Starbound Theatre gave its cast of ‘Moana Jr.’ a wonderful lesson in extending what they already know into new worlds.”

as part of her “One Way Out” tour.

Fans can expect to rock out all night to a collection of her charttoppers like “I’m the Only One” and “Come To My Window,” as well

as hits from her latest album “One Way Out,“ which resurrects unreleased songs from early in her career.

With the start of her tour, the release of her first-ever graphic

novel, “Heartstrings,” and recent nomination for a GLAAD Media Award, Etheridge continues to maintain her presence as a powerhouse within the rock world, as she has for

more than 20 years.

Doors open at 7 p.m.

The show starts at 8 p.m.

The Uptown Theatre is located at 1350 3rd St. For more information or tickets, visit www. uptowntheatrenapa.com.

“Our goal is to create space for the arts – all arts,” said Tia Madison, the president of the collaborative board, which has 11 women members.

She said this is the nonprofit’s second venture into establishing a comedy venue in the area, which Madison said she felt is important since the area has not had a comedy club since Pepperbelly’s burned down.

Madison, who came from Florida in 2003, remembers Pepperbelly’s fondly.

“We had tried (a comedy venue) before, but it wasn’t very successful,” Madison said. “But with (Byrdsong’s) company, it seems to be.”

One thing the U.S. (both government and private citizens) can do is provide support to Ukrainian refugees fleeing into safe countries to lessen the burden on those countries until they can return home.

It will not be forever, like Palestinian refugees who have been in Jordan for decades. The Ukrainians will return as soon as it is safe to do so. Surely there are NGOs or United Nations groups that exist to do this, and perhaps Ukrainians in the U.S. who may be suited to make this happen.

While we’re at it, what about sanctions on Belarus and its president Alexander Grigoryevich Lukashenko and his cronies?

Why aren’t there sanctions put on Belarus for providing a welcome mat for Russia into Ukraine? Belarus is just as much an invader as Russia by allowing the use of its territory and

As a student in the FairfieldSuisun School District, I would like for the district to make a meaningful investment in its teachers by increasing teacher compensation.

I have been a student in the district since August 2009. I have personally experienced how the district’s teachers are some of the most amazing and dedicated people who are strongly committed to ensuring their students are given the best education possible in order to prepare them for their bright futures.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, teachers have stepped up to take on

more responsibilities and challenges despite ever-changing circumstances and harder working conditions. I personally have witnessed my teachers devote great time and attention to making sure their students were able to learn in a productive and collaborative learning environment.

Despite the challenges presented by distance learning, technology and increased class sizes, the district’s teachers have demonstrated a strong and steadfast commitment to their students.

I would ask that the FairfieldSuisun School District recognize its teachers’ important and key contributions by increasing teacher compensation across the district.

Teachers work hard every day to prepare their students to become the leaders, innovators and decisionmakers of tomorrow. By increasing teacher compensation, the Fairfield-Suisun School District would be sending a clear message that its teachers are valuable changemakers who play a decisive role in student success.

SOLANO VOICES

IMPORTANT ADDRESSES

alifornia’s chronic housing shortage stems from specific shortfalls in several key elements needed to reach a level of construction that would relieve the crisis.

The recent issuance of two documents pertaining to housing in Los Angeles, the state’s largest city and an epicenter of the housing conundrum, illustrate the corrosive effect of those shortcomings.

The first is a warning from the state Department of Housing and Community Development that Los Angeles isn’t fully complying with the state’s mandate that it zone enough land to meet the city’s housing quota.

To comply with the law, the city would have to designate potential sites for an additional quarter-million units and do so in ways that make way for Dan Walters much-needed housing of lowand moderate-income families.

Los Angeles is not alone in being out of compliance with quotas the state sets every eight years – numbers that have increased sharply in the latest cycle because of subpar development in previous years.

Many of the state’s 482 cities are also tardy and those that fail to do what the state directs could face a loss of state housing funds. City officials have complained about the higher quotas, some have adopted creative ways to evade them and there was a short-lived proposal by some officials to free them from state housing decrees.

Were Los Angeles to have its state housing subsides diminished, however, it’s questionable whether it would feel much impact because it appears to be unable to effectively spend the housing money it already has, a report from the city’s controller, Ron Galperin, indicates.

Five years after Los Angeles voters approved a $1.2 billion bond issue to house the homeless or those in danger of becoming unhoused, Galperin’s audit found, the city has 8,091 housing units “spread across 125 projects in various stages of development.”

Galperin said the projects are taking from three to six years to complete and costs have increased rapidly, reaching an average of $596,846 per unit in 2021. Fourteen percent of the units are exceeding $700,000 per unit and one project topped $800,000.

Thus, the $1.2 billion Los Angeles voters approved will, at best, house a small fraction of the city’s estimated 41,000 homeless – a number that is growing faster than the rate of construction. The 41,000 figure comes from a 2020 count and is 45% higher than the city’s homeless number when the bond issue was passed.

Los Angeles had about a quarter of the state’s 161,000 homeless people the annual statewide count found in 2020. The count was canceled in 2021 due to Covid-19 but the annual event was resumed last month.

While the numbers are still being tallied, there’s little doubt it will show a hefty increase and it’s widely believed whatever figure emerges will fall short of reality because of the pandemic’s economic disruption.

The Los Angeles experience framed in the two official documents – not enough land for housing and not enough money to make more than a small dent in the housing shortage due to high construction costs – afflicts other communities as well.

As a recent CalMatters article points out, while the state has spent billions on housing, particularly aimed at the homeless, the problem appears to be growing worse, at least visually.

“I know (the governor) is frustrated, I know the Legislature is frustrated, the public is frustrated,” Assembly Budget Committee Chairman Phil Ting, a San Francisco Democrat, said during a recent hearing on the housing crisis.

“We have appropriated billions and billions of dollars to this issue. And it’s not clear where we’ve made progress.”

In a video I watched on MAP testing, students were instructed to take a guess if they did not know the answer to a question. Now, if a student is taking a test for the first time with no prior instruction, it would stand to reason the student may be guessing – a lot. Finally, 11th graders, who know the tests do not apply to their final grades, have no incentive to take the tests seriously, which begs the question, if students are guessing and/or not taking the test seriously, how accurate are the results?

There was a time when teachers taught lessons, created tests based on the lessons and exercises and assessed students’ comprehension, skill, critical thinking and intellectualism. That has been significantly diminished due to MAP testing. Approximately 93% of communication is nonverbal. Teachers know their students’ abilities, where they excel, where they struggle, why they struggle, the complexities of their attitudes and behaviors and adapt accordingly, because they are with them for six hours a day, five days a week.

Teachers are the experts in their field. Let them teach. Testing is not teaching. Philosopher and activist Cornel West said rich kids get taught; poor kids get tested. MAP testing is an annual waste of $200,000 worth of taxes that can be better utilized to teach our students, not test them. Our students deserve better.

LeBron’s 56 points lift Lakers past Golden State Los Angeles Times LOS ANGELES — LeBron James stood outside the paint during the first quarter Saturday night at Staples Center, the Lakers’ season in as bad of a spot as it had been at any point, as he slumped over at his waist. His right arm dangled from his shoulder like cooked pasta as he tried to shake feeling into his fingers.

He had just been fouled

and needed to shoot a free throw. But James looked over at the Lakers’ bench and shook his head, coach Frank Vogel quickly taking a timeout.

James spent that break receiving treatment on his right arm, a massage gun quickly firing against the muscle, before he came back on the floor and made the free throw.

It was one point – one of 56 in one of the best games he has ever played.

With the Lakers desperately needing a win to breathe life into their postseason push and end a four-game losing streak, the 37-year-old James had his best offensive game as a Laker, defying age and eluding defenders and leading his team to a 124-116 victory over the Golden State Warriors.

After the game, he untucked his golden uniform. Streamers fell.

He hugged Warriors star

guard Stephen Curry. It wasn’t the NBA Finals – the Lakers are still forever away from those – but it was an all-time performance on a night when the Lakers needed one so badly.

James, one of the best ever, was again close to being at his best.

He slipped through Golden State’s defense and threw home a reverse one-handed slam. He drilled 3-pointers and

bullied for post-up scores in the paint. He got hot. He stayed hot.

He did it all – fittingly with Curry and the Warriors on the other side of the floor.

The Lakers, for the most part, were with him.

Russell Westbrook built off his success attacking the paint Thursday night against the Clippers by having one of his best offensive games since the new year, pushing to

the rim against a Warriors defense that is badly missing Draymond Green.

And Carmelo Anthony, like James did in the first half, beat the buzzer to end the third quarter, the fans inside the Lakers’ home building showering them with cheers.

Anthony sealed the win with a corner 3-pointer, the building filling with cheers and an atmospheric sigh of relief.

Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski reacts during the first half against the North Carolina Tar Heels at Cameron

Indoor Stadium, Saturday, in Durham, North Carolina.

Duke led at halftime. but couldn’t hold off the Tar Heels.

Duke falls to UNC, 94-81 in Coach K’s final game at Cameron Indoor Stadium Tribune Content Agency DURHAM, N.C. — In a game that meant nothing in the ACC standings for No. 4 Duke but everything in the hearts of Blue Devils near and far, rival North Carolina outplayed the Blue Devils when it mattered Saturday night.

In retiring Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski’s final game at Cameron Indoor Stadium, the Tar Heels rallied from seven points down in the final 13 minutes to beat the Blue Devils, 94-81.

Wanting desperately to send their 75-year-old coach off the court that bears his name with a win one last time, Duke instead saw four Tar Heels score 20 points or more.

That quartet – Armando Bacot (23 points), Caleb

Love (22) RJ Davis (21) and Brady Manek (20) – helped UNC shoot 59.4% in the second half to pull away.

Duke (26-5, 16-4 ACC) had its first outright firstplace finish in the ACC regular season wrapped up prior to the game.

The Blue Devils saw their seven-game winning streak halted.

As the No. 1 seed for the ACC tournament in New York, Duke opens play Thursday at noon against the winner of Wednesday’s game between No. 8 seed Florida State and No. 9 seed Syracuse.

UNC (23-8, 15-5 ACC) earned the third seed thanks to beating Duke and play either No. 6 seed Virginia, No. 11 seed Louisville or No. 14 seed

Georgia Tech in Thursday night’s final quarterfinal at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

Paolo Banchero scored 23 points for Duke, which shot just 42.1% in the second half.

After Duke led by as many as nine points in the first half, UNC cut the deficit to 41-39 at halftime and the Tar Heels tied the score at 41 when Bacot scored inside with 18:55 to play.

Duke then used an 11-4 run to lead by seven points as Williams scored three baskets inside, Banchero sank a layup and Keels drilled a 3-pointer.

With Duke up 56-49 Banchero hit a layup on a fast break that started with Theo John blocking Manek’s layup

attempt, it appeared the Blue Devils were on the verge of pulling away with 12:49 to play.

But UNC responded with five quick points, including a pair of Davis baskets, that left the Blue Devils up 54-52 with 11:40 to play.

Duke led 61-56 when UNC ran off nine points in a row to move in front.

Duke contributed with a pair of turnovers, including allowing Davis to steal the ball and hit a layup.

When Davis sank a jumper with 6:42 to play, the Tar Heels led 70-65.

While the big leaguers remain locked out, the minor league spring training officially opened on Saturday at the freshly-completed Papago Park complex for the 173 players the Giants have in their organization.

There’s no Joey Bart, Heliot Ramos or Sean Hjelle, as all are on the 40-man roster and, thus, locked out from any baseball activities with the Giants. But several other top prospects are able to participate, led

by Marco Luciano, the team’s consensus No. 1 prospect.

On the first day, Luciano took two at-bats in a simulated game, going 1-for-2 with a lasered single to left field his first time up.

Luciano said he’s actually been with the team for over a month already, participating in minicamps with the Giants in the run-up to minor league camp opening.

“I think everything is going well,” Luciano said through

‘(Marco Luciano is a) confident kid, carries himself confidently. Around his teammates, he’s very happy, fun to be around. You get to see him kind of be a kid. But when he’s on the field, he’s very determined in what he’s doing.’

— Dennis Pelfrey, Richmond manager

Spanish language translator Erwin Higueros. “Everything is going according to plan.”

Luciano is MLB.com’s fifth-best prospect in all of baseball, while Baseball America has ranked him No. 17 and ESPN has him No. 30. In a world without a lockout, Luciano surely would have been invited to big league camp and worked with Gabe Kapler and the big league coaching staff. Kapler was in attendance on Saturday, but watching from the stands.

Instead, the minor league coaches ran the day, meaning Luciano got to work with Double-A Richmond manager Dennis Pelfrey, who was his manager at instructional league in 2020 and in High-A Eugene for the last month-and-a-half of 2021. And after two years, Pelfrey thinks very

highly of the 20-year-old. “[He’s a] confident kid, carries himself confidently. Around his teammates, he’s very happy, fun to be around,” Pelfrey said. “You get to see him kind of be a kid. But when he’s on the field, he’s very determined in what he’s doing.”

As a 19-year-old, Luciano tore up Single-A San Jose, batting .278 with 18 home runs and 57 RBI. He also displayed good plate discipline, walking 38 times and striking out 68 times in 308 plate appearances.

The strong performance earned him a call-up to High-A Eugene on Aug. 4, 2021, where he spent the rest of the season all the way through the Emeralds’ See Giants, Page B12

Elk Grove — After a sizzling 24-point second quarter gave the Vanden High boys basketball team a three-point halftime lead, the Vikings managed just 10 points in the second half in falling 42-40 to top-seeded Elk Grove in the CIF Northern California Division II regionals, Saturday night.

The fifth-seeded Vikings, who finish the season 21-13, played solid defense in the second half, limiting the Thundering Herd (26-6) to seven points in the third quarter, but it wasn’t enough. After leading 38-34 entering the fourth quarter, Vanden was outscored 8-2 over the decisive final eight minutes.

The Vikings won their second Sac-Joaquin Section title and ninth overall this season, a nifty accomplishment after starting out the campaign 0-6.

In its last NorCal appearance in 2020, Vanden was knocked out in the Division I

NorCal quarterfinals by Archbishop Riordan of San Francisco.

Mustangs advance to Napa tourney title game YOUNTVILLE — Nathan Schikore tossed a complete game six-hitter and struck out nine as the Rodriguez High baseball team advanced to the championship game of the Jack Matthews Veterans Invitational with a 5-2 win over Campolindo of Moraga at Cleve Borman Field, Friday.

Trentin Schmidt ripped a two-run triple and was then doubled in

by Kade Wilde in Rodriguez’s three-run bottom of the fifth for the first runs of the game. After the Cougars closed to within 3-2 in the top of the sixth, Landon Troutt and Jack Metcho drove in runs in the bottom of the inning to push the lead back to three runs.

Predators hand Sharks most lopsided loss of Bob Boughner era Tribune Content Agency SAN JOSE — Seeing goalie Alex Stalock start for the Sharks at SAP Center seemed preposterous only a few months ago.

It was equally unthinkable as of last week.

But roughly 14 months after he was diagnosed with a heart condition that threatened to derail his professional career, and just a few days after he was acquired by the Sharks in a minor trade, Stalock got the nod for San Jose on Saturday against the Nashville Predators.

But what could have been a feel-good night turned into one of the uglier games of the season, as the Predators flattened the Sharks, 8-0, before a mostly frustrated announced crowd of 13,936.

Nashville scored six times on Stalock on 28 shots before he was mercifully removed at the 6:07 mark of the third period. The Predators then tacked on

two more goals on Zach Sawchenko, handing the Sharks their most lopsided loss of the coach Bob Boughner era.

Stalock and the injuryravaged Sharks allowed four even-strength goals in the first two periods, then Nashville added two goals in the first 6:07 of the third period, bringing out the boo birds inside the downtown arena.

Michael McCarron had two goals and two assists for the Predators, and the Sharks were shut out at the other end by Predators goalie Juuse Saros, who made 20 saves.

Stalock, 34, was acquired from the Edmonton Oilers on Wednesday for future considerations and practiced with the team on Thursday and Friday.

With their two other experienced goalies hurt, Boughner gave Stalock his first start as a Sharks goalie since Feb. 11, 2016.

Stalock was drafted by the Sharks in the fourth See Sharks, Page B7

Sharks From Page B6 round in 2005 and spent six-plus seasons with the organization, playing 62 NHL games from 2011 to 2016 before he was traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs in a deal that brought James Reimer to San Jose.

Oddly enough, it was injuries to Reimer and Adin Hill that brought Stalock back to San Jose.

Both Sharks goalies are dealing with lower-body injuries, with Reimer considered week-to-week and Hill slowly progressing from his own malady, which has kept him out of action for close to six weeks.

Stalock’s last NHL game was Aug. 7, 2020, as he started all four games for the Minnesota Wild in their play-in series with the Vancouver Canucks inside the bubble at Rogers Place in Edmonton.

With Wild rookie goalie Kaapo Kahkonen emerging as a capable backup to Cam Talbot early last season, Stalock was placed on waivers by Minnesota on Feb. 28, 2021, and claimed by the Oilers the next day. He never played a game for Edmonton as he was out with what was described then as an upper-body injury.

Turns out, Stalock had been diagnosed with myocarditis in November 2020 after he tested positive for Covid-19. The expectation then became that Stalock would have to miss the 2021-2022 season as well with the Covidrelated heart condition.

“When I first got diagnosed, the first couple weeks were scary,” Stalock said this week.

“You get told to not get your heart rate up, and you know how hard that is when you’ve got kids, like, can you keep up with them?”

But in December, Stalock did a genetic test that determined he did not carry the gene for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), allowing him to resume training at a more intense level in his home state of Minnesota.

He went to Bakersfield and his first game with the Condors was on Jan. 23 in San Jose against the Barracuda.

Sharks captain Logan Couture went to see Stalock when he played that game in January at SAP Center.

“Happy to just be around hockey, I think,” Couture said of Stalock.

“After what he’s been through, he said those 18 months were very difficult, not knowing which direction his career was going to go and his life was going to go. There are so many things probably

Giants From Page B6 championship. Luciano struggled against the advanced pitching, batting .217 with one homer and 14 RBI, and also striking out 54 times (with only 10 walks) in 145 plate appearances.

“In Eugene, they’re more consistent. They know the strike zone,” Luciano said.

“Not at like a lower level, where they miss the zone, but in Eugene, it seems like they know exactly what they want to do.”

Pelfrey added, “There is a lot of pressure based on [him] being who he is, but he did a fantastic job handling that. You can look at the stats and say he struggled a little bit, but I think a lot of players really embrace that because you learn a lot faster. If we had a month left in the season last year in Eugene, I think you would’ve seen a guy that would’ve tore up the High-A league.”

It was also his first-ever full professional baseball season, after only playing in 47 games stateside in 2019 and no official games in 2020 (though he was at the alternate site in Sacramento). Luciano also acknowledged fatigue was a factor in the drop-off but that he has to learn to deal with it because it “comes with the job.”

Pelfrey also thought transitioning from the grass field in San Jose to the turf field in Eugene didn’t help with the fatigue

factor, either. And while the struggles only exacerbated questions some prospect evaluators have had about his long-term ability to play shortstop, Pelfrey thinks otherwise.

“The arm plays, the glove plays,” Pelfrey said.

“I think there’s going to be zero issues if the Giants are going to keep him at short the rest of his career.”

Luciano said he’s been working on more cardio and running to make sure his body “wouldn’t resent the season.” Though he did well in the Arizona Fall League, batting .253 in 21 games with three homers, the step-up to facing higher-quality pitching resonated with him into the offseason – and have pushed him to be ready for this year.

“Those are the challenges that I like,” Luciano said. “I know that I have to learn and that’s what I like.

I like to compete, because I know that they are doing the same thing.”

That mentality is obvious to his two-time manager in Pelfrey, who says he “100%” expects to have Luciano with him a third time at some point this year in Richmond.

“It was fantastic to see how he works,” Pelfrey said. “I think what gets lost is how he works and how determined he is to be really good. That, in itself, takes care of the development, really.

“I really think you’re going to see Luciano blossom.”

The minor league complex was built in 1988 and was the home of the A’s minor league facility from then until Oakland Hohokam Park in Mesa in 2015. The city of Phoenix leased the land to Scottsdale, who is subleasing to the Giants, who have poured millions into a renovation project to modernize and expand the facility.

The Giants had their minor league facility at Indian School Park (on the corner of Camelback and Hayden in Scottsdale) for decades, but this year marks the first full, official spring at Papago. It’s in the exact opposite direction as Scottsdale Stadium, but Papago is only half a mile farther away (2.5 miles) from Scottsdale Stadium than Indian School Park (two miles).

The organization added their own custom touch to two fields in particular: the first two fields closest to the 64th Street entrance have the same dimensions as the Giants’ two San Francisco homes.

There’s the Candlestick field, adorned with logos on its outfield fence from the team’s early years in San Francisco.

And then there’s the Oracle Park field, with a 24-foot-high tarped fence in right field and the 415-foot triple’s alley.

And, for at least this first day, the wind was blowing in from that field’s outfield on an overcast day, so it even had an Oracle Park-feel to it weather-wise, too.

Duke: Falls to NC From Page B6 layup, Black a reverse layup and Manek a basket inside to lead 79-71 with 3:54 to play.

Following the emotional pregame ceremony where the nearly 100 former players who returned for the game welcomed Krzyzewski to the court for his final game at Cameron, the Blue Devils were predictably off their game in the early minutes.

Duke hit just two of its first seven shots, while committing three turnovers, as the Tar Heels jumped to an 11-4 lead.

Once the Blue Devils calmed down after the game’s first timeout, they found their footing offensively. By hitting five of

its next six shots, Duke cut UNC’s lead to 13-12.

Banchero hit three shots during that stretch.

But it wasn’t until UNC center Bacot picked up his second foul that the Blue Devils were able to create some separation from their rivals.

UNC led 28-23 after two Bacot free throws with 7:08 left in the first half.

Banchero’s 3-pointer gave Duke momentum and the Blue Devils’ surge grew after Bacot went to the bench at 6:22 after being called for his second foul.

Duke scored the game’s next 11 points, giving it a 14-0 run and a 37-28 lead with 3:04 left until halftime.

Among the other notable top prospects currently working out at the Minor League facility include outfielders Luis Matos, left-handed pitcher Kyle Harrison and their last three first-round picks: outfielder Hunter Bishop (2019), catcher Patrick Bailey (2020) and rightWill handed pitcher Bednar (2021).

Currently, the minor league facility is closed to fans, though the Giants anticipate allowing fans in once Minor League spring games begin sometime around March 15. But there is a way fans who come out in the next week can see what’s happening.

But you might need some hiking boots and binoculars.

The Giants complex is on a small sliver of Papago Park on the north side of the corner of McDowell Road and 64th Street in Phoenix. But the vast majority of the park is south of McDowell and has extensive desert hiking trails.

If you’re willing to go on a bit of a hike, there are two Papago Park trails that fans can hike to access the northeast corner of the butte and look down on the baseball fields: the Big Butte Loop and the Double Butte Loop. From there, fans can see all six ballfields with ease . . . from a distance. Fans can also access the best viewpoints via the Papago Amphitheater on McDowell Road, but parking on the side of McDowell there is
