UKRAINE | RUSSIA CRISIS

Putin orders not to storm last Mariupol stronghold Tribune Content Agency SVIATOHIRSK, Ukraine — Russia claimed victory over the battered southern Ukrainian port of Mariupol on Thursday, with President Vladimir Putin saying he had ordered his forces not to attack the city’s last holdouts sheltering in a vast steelworks but to blockade the compound so tightly that “not even a fly comes through.” Ukraine’s government rejected the Russian assertion of a complete takeover of the once-thriving coastal city, which has been nearly wiped out in the course of nonstop attack. But Putin’s announcement that troops would not storm the sprawling Azovstal steel plant – where Ukrainian forces and civilians are holed up – was at once a sign of Russian confidence in its grip on Mariupol and of the fierce resistance of local defenders who have refused the enemy’s demands to surrender. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told a French televi-

sion station Thursday that “local residents, children, the elderly and the military are blocked in the city of Mariupol.” “It is not more like a war, but a terrorist operation by Russia against Mariupol and the people of this city,” he said. Speaking Thursday at the White House, President Joe Biden, who announced an additional $800 million in defense aid to Ukraine, said it was “questionable” whether Putin controlled the city. “There is no evidence yet that Mariupol has completely fallen,” said Biden, who predicted that the Russian offensive was “going to be limited in terms of geography but not limited in terms of brutality.” Control of Mariupol, on the Sea of Azov, has been among Russia’s key strategic goals since it launched its war on Ukraine exactly eight weeks ago.

Fairfield No. 1 in state for Instagram alcohol posts Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Instagram users in Fairfield have posted more about alcoholrelated issues during the Covid-19 pandemic than anywhere else in California, and Vacaville is third highest. Vallejo also made the top 15 at No. 14 among the state’s largest cities. “National rehab directory, Rehabs. com, commissioned a study in which the 100 largest towns and cities in the Golden State were ranked for their number of alcohol-related Instagram posts over the course of the pandemic. The researchers analyzed 5,000 Instagram posts starting from March 2020 – the unofficial start of lockdowns for most states – to identify how many were

related to alcohol or being drunk. The results reveal which town/ cities posted about it the most, which could possibly indicate a problematic relationship with alcohol,” according to a statement released about the study. “Rehabs.com made some interesting discoveries: The first being that Fairfield, which has a population of 118,498, came in the number-one spot with 432 alcohol-related Instagram posts (per 5,000 posts) during the pandemic,” the statement said. “This represents 8.64% of all Instagram posts in that city during that period. This might not be all that surprising when you consider that Fairfield is in Solano County, which has among the See Fairfield, Page A8

Easter activity brings mild bump in Covid cases, but outcomes mild Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The coronavirus case numbers from Thursday suggest Solano County is seeing a slight Easter weekend Covid bump. The Public Health Division reported 137 new coronavirus cases since its last report Monday – 117 of those cases actually occurring during those three days. That takes the pandemic total to 85,262, the county reported. "I'm thinking we are looking at a little Easter bump," Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said in a phone interview. He noted that since Monday, the case average was 39 per day – based on the 117 actual cases – while the 10-day daily case average climbed

from 25.7 Monday to 32.8 Thursday. The rate from the previous Thursday was 30.2, the county reported. "And that is an increase over what we were seeing last week," Matyas said. MATYAS But the cases, he said, remain mild with few serious outcomes. There were no new Covid-related deaths reported, keeping the total at 417, and the number of residents in the hospital with a positive coronavirus test, while up slightly, was still only four with one patient in an intensive care unit with Covid-19, the county reported. Fairfield added 32 new cases

to take its total to 22,837. Vallejo added 50 cases for a count of 25,721. Vacaville is at 21,773 after 20 additional cases, the county reported. Suisun City (5,995) added 12 new cases; Dixon (4,357) added four; Benicia (3,185) added 15; Rio Vista (1,194) added three; and one new case in the unincorporated area of the county took that area's total to 200. The county reported 73% of residents 5 or older having been fully vaccinated and 83% of that population, up slightly from 82%, has received at least one shot. There have been 158,255 booster shots administered, up 827 since Monday, the county reported. That represents 51.9% of the eligible See Covid, Page A8

Stingless wasps released to fight the glassy-winged sharpshooter Matt Miller

MMILLER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

VACAVILLE — The invasive glassy-winged sharpshooters found in Vacaville's Browns Valley neighborhood at the end of 2021 by the Solano County Agriculture Department now have a natural enemy in their midst, the stingless wasp. The Ag Department worked with the California Department of Food and Agriculture and county biologists Wednesday to release 900 micro-sized wasps throughout the area, grown specifically to target the sharpshooters. It's a non-chemical pest management program known as biocontrol. "One method is insecticide but this is better in an urban environment," said David Morgan, PhD., the program manager of biological control for the California Department of Food and Agriculture. "The insects kill the eggs of the glassy-winged sharpshooters."

achieve our goal of eradication," said Ed King, Solano County's agriculture commissioner/sealer of weights and measures. "The cooperation of homeowners in the neighborhoods is essential. We understand that some homeowners don't want us moving around on their property, but we've had overwhelmingly positive support and cooperation." The team came armed with 900 stingless wasps from a facility of Morgan's in Arvin, near Bakersfield. They come in both genders, male and female. The females tend to be larger in size and are the longer-lasting wasps. The

males breed and die off quickly while the females continue to live on. It takes up to two weeks for the wasps to reach maturity level. "It's fascinating because the female wasps make life decisions throughout their lives," Morgan said. "They can decide what sex of wasp they want to have. It's one of the tools we have in our tool boxes. The hope is that they cycle through, reproduce and create more wasps." The wasps came in 18 vials with 50 wasps per vial.

I remember when he had the ability to rip and burn tracks onto CDs and make digital mixtapes. He would often make ones of old metal tracks or songs I hadn’t heard in a long time and give them to me for Christmas. Yes, it was a cheapskate move, but I appreciated it and still have them – although they won’t play now. I still have some old floppy discs, not the old, old kind like Matthew Broderick used in “War Games” but the other ones, the 3.5-inch ones. I have no way to view what is on them now, but they keep my old

projector reels and VHS tapes company. Now, although obsolete, the floppy does live on (kinda) in 2022, but it’s purpose has changed.

Solano Supervisor candidates answer questions from urban, rural interests Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Leadership from the business community and agriculture on Wednesday night asked the five candidates vying for the District 3 seat on the Solano County Board of Supervisors why they should be the chosen one. Jennifer Barton, Joe Joyce, Pete Sanchez, Chuck Timm and Wanda Williams appeared at the candidate forum hosted by the Fairfield-Suisun Chamber of Commerce and the Solano County Farm Bureau at the chamber office in Fairfield. Each is looking to replace longtime Supervisor Jim Spering on the county board. Joyce fashioned himself as the political outsider, stating he is running for office to “take back government” for the local residents. Barton, who has worked for three members of the state Assembly and two members of the U.S. House of Representatives as well as for BART and in other public capacities, emphasized the opposite: her experience has taught her how to work with politicians and how to locate and secure funding for issues facing the county. One of her former bosses, retired state Sen. Lois Wolk, was among the dozen or so people who listened in on the forum through Zoom. There were about 35 people who attended the event in person. The other candidates all have current or past experiences as elected officials, and each believed that is critical for the job as supervisor. Timm has served nearly 12 years on the Fairfield City Council; Pete Sanchez served 24 years on the council in Suisun City, 12 as mayor; and Williams is a current member of the Suisun council. Timm framed himself as a middle-of-the-road, pro-business candidate, who said it is easy to want and to say you will solve problems, but not as easy to find funding that needs to be balanced against what is losing those dollars when moved somewhere else. Williams said she would focus on homelessness, mental health and affordable housing. Sanchez, the only candidate to wear a Covidstyled mask during the event, pledged to give away his “net salary” if elected, giving the money to such charities as senior and community centers and educationbased activities. Joyce could be over-

There were some questions asked from members of the public, in the room and online, as well. The candidates were asked if they supported the Covid-19 vaccines and the governor’s mandates on masking. Timm said the question was meant to be divisive, but like everyone else, supports the vaccines and masking, but like everyone else, also agreed there is a personal choice to be considered. Sanchez noted he wears a mask because he has an adult child who is autistic and therefore more vulnerable to disease, and because he does not know who else might be vulnerable when he is in a crowded area, so he puts on a mask. Williams lost two of her three children to a debilitating disease and said if they were still alive, no one would be allowed in her house without wearing a mask. The candidates also agreed with the need to support the Suisun Valley Specific Plan, to keep a green belt between county cities and to find ways to support local agriculture. There were a couple of missteps when asked whether they supported the Williamson Act. Joyce admitted he did not know what that was, and Sanchez suggested it was a tax break program by which farmers and ranchers keep their ground fallow. The act provides a property tax break in exchange for not developing the agricultural lands, but actually requires the land to stay in production or be part of some kind of open space conserva-

tion easement. Barton said at one time the Williamson Act was a very effective program, but when the state stopped backfilling the lost tax revenues to the counties, it has become less valuable. Timm and Williams supported the Williamson Act as a way to help agricultural interests. Multiple questions were asked about supporting child care and child services. Mostly all agreed it is important to support policies that provide support for those needs. One question specifically asked if employers have an obligation to provide child care for their employees. Timm said he would not support such a policy, especially for small businesses, but would hope larger firms would choose to provide the service. Barton is a member of the First 5 Commission and noted the new learning center that is coming to Fairfield, which she said she was instrumental in securing. Perhaps the question that raised the most differences among the candidates was about whether they would support a civilian oversight committee for the Sheriff’s Office. Timm and Joyce, both former law enforcement

officers, were adamantly against it, arguing there are enough checks on the sheriff’s activities now with the state Attorney General’s Office, the grand jury and the voters every four years. Sanchez said he had no objection to having any civilian oversight committee no matter the governmental function and thinks public involvement is always a good thing. Williams essentially echoed that position, emphasizing the value of public transparency. However, she said she thinks a hybrid approach in which members of the public work on the same committee as Sheriff’s Office staff is a better first step. Barton said she is concerned about some of the things she hears about the Sheriff’s Office and believes an oversight committee could have value, but would prefer starting with an outside professional review board to look into specific issues. Other questions included such topics as homelessness, senior services, and the candidates’ experience with business and agriculture communities. The election is on June 7. If no candidate wins the seat outright, the top two vote-getters will face off on Nov. 8.

VACAVILLE — The Planning Commission gave its recommendation Tuesday that the City Council amend the zoning map to ensure its consistency with the newly adopted land use and development code update as well as the Downtown Specific Plan. The decision reaffirms the 2015 General Plan and environmental impact report and the 2021 final supplemental environmental impact report, and amends the Municipal Code by changing designations for various affected properties throughout the city. The properties include industrial, commercial, residential, public parks and public facilities. The updates are divided into major, minor and Downtown

Specific Plan changes. Properties in the major category are changing zoning designations because old zoning designations were either eliminated or the former zone is no longer consistent with the General Plan. The major category affects 442 properties. There are 183 properties affected in the minor changes category and seven areas in the Downtown Specific Plan. The city earlier this month sent notifications to those affected by the changes. Based on staff’s analysis, the proposed amendments will comply with the General Plan, Land Use and Development Code and California Environmental Quality Act criteria. There was no discussion on the matter. It’s expected to go before the council at its second meeting in May.

Fire on Tulip Street leads to 1 death Pam Bertani announces 3 town hall sessions

Matt Miller

MMILLER@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — A patio fire became a two-alarm structure fire and one man was found dead after succumbing to injuries at the scene Wednesday on the 300 block of Tulip Street. Firefighters were dispatched at 8:43 a.m. when a fire on the backyard patio was getting close to the home. It became a twoalarm call five minutes later as the fire moved into the home. A man was reported a victim of the fire at

8:53 a.m. and pronounced dead from injuries at the scene. The name of the man was withheld until his family is notified. An investigation is underway, though Fire Department spokesman Rob Harris said the death and fire appeared to be accidental. Harris said damage to the home is estimated at $250,000. Firefighters remained on scene to complete mop-up work and to handle the investigation. The fire was declared under control at 8:59 a.m.

Police arrest man after K-9 officer ‘bit,’ ‘stabbed’ in confrontation Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — A 44-year-old man was arrested by Fairfield police officers Wednesday afternoon following a standoff at a house on the 1700 block of Elm Street that ended when the Police Department sent in its K-9 officer. Both the suspect, Kurt A. Dasilva, and the dog, Cort, were injured in the confrontation, the Fairfield Police Department reported. Desilva was taken to a local hospital for treatment before being booked into Solano County jail, the police reported. He was held on suspicion of one count each of attempted carjacking, burglary and harming a police dog, all felonies, and a misdemeanor allegation of obstructing or resisting a public officer. Bail was set at a combined $106,667 – although

K-9 Cort was treated at UC Davis Veterinary Hospital. The police reported he had been “bit in the face” and “stabbed . . . on his left side with a knife.” He was released to his handler, the police

email states. Police were alerted to a report of a man having broken into the residence of an elderly resident. “The victim left the residence while contacting the Fairfield Police Department. During that time, Fairfield dispatch received another report

from an Amazon employee (who) the suspect threatened to kill . . . and take his delivery truck. The suspect was not known to the victims,” the police email states. “Fairfield officers responded and saw the male suspect inside the residence running around. Officers attempted to call the suspect out numerous times without success,” the email states. “After numerous attempts to call the suspect out of the home, and the use of deescalation techniques and tools, officers entered the home in an attempt to arrest the suspect.” The K-9 officer made first contact with the suspect in the house. “K-9 Cort contacted the suspect, and the suspect bit K-9 Cort in the face and stabbed him on his left side with a knife,” the police email states. Dasilva was scheduled to appear in court Friday.

City likely to loan landscape districts funds for operations, consultant Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The City Council this week seemed to indicate it was willing to loan about $290,000 to four landscape and lighting maintenance districts to cover projected operational deficits and the costs of having a consultant come up with a services assessment schedule to avoid future issues. “I don’t think not loaning is an option,” Councilman Scott Tonnesen said during the Tuesday special meeting, which preceded the regularly scheduled council meeting. No formal vote was taken. Three other districts – Rolling Hills No. 7, Paradise Valley North No. 11 and North Cordelia No. 13 – are scheduled to come before the City Council on May 3 with a request for a combined $700,000 to $1 million in loans, Ryan Panganiban, assistant Public Works director and city engineer, said in a phone interview. Some residents are hoping the city will dedicate American Rescue Plan Act funding to the districts rather than a loan, arguing the cost increases they have faced have occurred primarily during the pandemic. The city has held a number of community meetings with the residents, businesses and property owners in the districts, and expects to take the same approach with the districts that were discussed Tuesday. If the districts opt not to ask for the loans, the city will cut back services so those costs are covered by existing revenues. Each district is unique in the

kinds and levels of services provided. Even the eight special districts that are doing well financially pay a consultant charge for budget-related services, Panganiban said. Their fee was not immediately available. However, eight of the 16 districts in the city will require Proposition 218 elections to set new assessment fees for services, the council was told. Proposition 218 is the 1996 voter-approved initiative that requires voters affected by new or increased taxes, fees or assessments to vote on the proposal. If the new fees, which have yet to be determined and would be part of the consultant’s work, are voted down, the city would then cut back services to a level supported by the existing revenues. While increasing costs over the life of the districts is part of the budget concerns, the biggest impacts have been from the soaring costs of landscape, water and other services in more recent months and years.

The size of the district also plays a part, with the smaller districts less likely to generate the necessary revenue, and some districts built in fee escalators to account for possible increases while others did not, Panganiban said. For example, one district had historically been charged about $90,000 for the services, so that was the figure put in the budget. The actual cost for the 2020-21 fiscal year turned out to be $120,000, and those rising costs are holding true for the current 2021-22 year as well. That has left that district with a budget deficit. One step the city is taking is to expand its cost projections from three years to five, Chris Lewis, an analyst with Public Works, told the council. That should help anticipate rising costs more accurately. The Gateway District 1 is hardest hit with a projected 2022-23 budget deficit of $170,000. That includes the $80,000 consultant fee. Waterman District 3 and Peppertree District

6 are each looking at a $50,000 shortfall with the consultant fee, and Kolob District 8 is forecast to be down $20,000, city documents state. Smith Ranch District 6 (Rancho Solano) is projected to have a $0 balance at the end of 2022-23. The city entered into a contract in August with NBS Government Finance Group to review and assess the budgets for the 16 maintenance districts in the city. Community engagement and assessment engineer work is underway for the Rolling Hills No. 7, Paradise Valley North No. 11 and North Cordelia No. 13 districts, which also would require a Proposition 218 election, the staff report states. Panganiban said there is no timeline set for when the four districts discussed Tuesday will be back to the council to request a loan, or if they will. That decision will follow the planned community engagement. “That’s the process we have taken in the other three (districts),” Panganiban said.

FAIRFIELD — City Councilwoman Pam Bertani will host a series of three town hall meetings in the coming months. They represent an opportunity for residents to discuss issues with Bertani. The public is welcome to attend. The first town hall is scheduled for 6 to 8 p.m. April 28 at Paradise Valley Golf Course, 3950 Paradise Valley Drive. The second meeting is from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. May 21 in the Gold Ridge neighborhood at Gary Falati Neighborhood Park, 5100 Falati Lane.

FAIRFIELD — The Bay Area Air Quality Management District has asked the Hearing Board to shut down nine diesel generators at the Green Sage cannabis facilities in East Oakland. The district, in a Feb. 16 Notice of Violation, stated the Denver-based marijuana growing company was operating the giant generators without a permit. “The air district is taking decisive action to stop these unpermitted and harmful diesel emissions from Green Sage’s generators,” Damian Breen, senior deputy executive officer of operations and enforcement, said in a statement. “East Oakland suffers more air pollution than other parts of the Bay Area and approval of the abatement order will help protect local residents and the community.” Green Sage officials could not be reached for comment. “The public deserves transparency, input and assurance that facilities will be held accountable

for air quality violations,” Veronica Eady, senior deputy executive officer of policy and equity at the air district, said in the statement. “The air district encourages the public, and especially East Oakland residents, to participate and provide comments to the Hearing Board as we work to hold Green Sage accountable and stop these harmful emissions in a community that is already disproportionately impacted by air pollution.” If the Hearing Board approves the abatement order, Green Sage would be required to shut down the diesel generators immediately, the air district statement said. Once the hearing is scheduled, a link will be posted on the district’s website, www.baaqmd. gov. The public can also sign up for Hearing Board updates at www. baaqmd.gov/contact-us/ sign-up-for-information. The air district operates in all or parts of the nine Bay Area counties, including the Fairfield and Vallejo areas of Solano County.

CALMATTERS COMMENTARY

Californians have new worries as Covid recedes

C

alifornians are undergoing a great reawakening. After two years of having their lives dominated, and perhaps permanently altered, by Covid-19, they are putting the pandemic behind them and shifting their attention to other concerns old and new. Predictably, the state’s political atmosphere is making the same transition. While Covid-19 remains a threat – and could re-emerge as an existential concern – a new poll by UC-Berkeley’s Institute of Governmental Studies finds it occupying a very low place on Californians’ list of issues demanding attention. Only 4% of voters, the poll found, now consider Covid-19 an important issue – 13th on a list of 15. The list is Dan Walters dominated by housing affordability (31%), homelessness (29%), crime (23%) and gasoline prices (21%). Housing and homelessness obviously predate the pandemic and have now returned as major concerns, while crime and gas prices are newcomers – or throwbacks, in an historic sense, to the late 1970s, when they dominated the state’s public consciousness and political discourse. The shrinkage of Covid-19 is obvious not only in the Berkeley-IGS poll, but in the recent actions of the state’s politicians. Only weeks ago, the Capitol was fiercely debating legislation about mandatory vaccinations, but the bills have now been put on hold. Last October, Gov. Gavin Newsom trumpeted that California was the first state to announce plans to make vaccinations mandatory for public school students. Last week, very quietly, the state postponed the mandate until the 2023-24 school year, citing a lag in the full federal approval of shots for younger students. Newsom’s announcement was just a stunt, reflecting his penchant for wanting to be the nation’s first in everything. Without a postponement, there would have been chaos when classes resumed in September because so few children would have been vaccinated. The emergence of crime and gas prices as major voter concerns in an election year is compelling politicians to respond. For instance, Newsom and legislators are negotiating some kind of direct payments to Californians to offset spikes in gas prices and other costs of living. Crime is a trickier issue because for the past decade, California has been softening its treatment of offenders. However, Californians are increasingly worried about becoming crime victims as their worries about being pandemic victims recede. A sharp uptick in homicides, an epidemic of car burglaries and smash-and-grab robberies in San Francisco, organized “follow home” robberies in Los Angeles and a gang shootout in downtown Sacramento that left six people dead are among the incidents that are fueling the increased fear. Crime could have direct effects on this year’s elections. The district attorneys of San Francisco and Los Angeles face potential recalls because of their less punitive policies. Their kindred soul, Attorney General Rob Bonta, who was appointed by Newsom, could have a tough time winning a full term on his own. One bellwether of Californians’ changing priorities will be who becomes the next mayor of Los Angeles. Rep. Karen Bass had seemed to be cruising to victory but a new Berkeley-IGS poll taken for the Los Angeles Times found that businessman Rick Caruso has zoomed into a virtual tie after spending millions of dollars on ads highlighting the crime issue. “The poll asked voters to pick two issues that were key to how they will vote,” the Times reported. “Homelessness was by far the top issue, cited by 61% of likely voters. No candidate has established an advantage on that topic, the poll showed. “By contrast, among the 38% of likely voters who said crime and public safety were top of mind, Caruso had a 4-1 lead over Bass.” CALmatters is a public interest journalism venture committed to explaining how California’s state Capitol works and why it matters.

I received a great deal of ridicule from my circle of friends. They thought my refusal to go meant I was acting like a "punk." Not falling prey to peer pressure, I stood my ground and passed on the invitation. Later that evening there was a news flash of a shooting on 54th Street near Crenshaw High School where several teenagers were shot and killed. I immediately knew this tragic incident occurred at the very party I was invited to attend. When I shared this story with the youth during a youth life skills workshop, they began to share stories of their own of when they made a decision that could have cost them their life or freedom. It made them realize that being afraid of something can be a good thing. This wisdom of having "healthy fear" inspires you to consider the consequences of your actions. Adapting a healthy fear, along with a touch of critical thinking, will result in improving your quality of life. Deon D. Price is an author and youth life skills coach who lives in Fairfield.

A center-left Democrat and a strong supporter of Israel, Shapiro worries me more than any other Democrat. He’s worked diligently at staying in the mainstream of American politics in a key swing state. Some of my Catholic friends in Pennsylvania think Shapiro was too hard on the church as he scoured dioceses for child-abusing priests. But Shapiro did his job as attorney general: He enforced the law. Very few Democrats have any credibility on crime these days; Shapiro does. Imagine if you will – immortal words from Rod Serling of “The Twilight Zone” – an electorate willing to jump a generation to escape the endless bitterness that has marked our politics since the mid-1990s. Imagine that Youngkin and Shapiro seek and receive their parties’ nominations and then select inspiring running mates such as Tim Scott and Khanna (who, by then, might be appointed senator to replace Dianne Feinstein in the Senate). An unlikely, but not impossible, cracking of the ice that has frozen over American politics would follow. Such a thaw would be welcome by the vast middle of America.

Community feeds your soul, and you’ll rack up the goodwill as you make people’s lives easier and more interesting. Cancer and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 22, 15, 4 and 18.

Peer pressure is a fact of humanity. Wherever people are, there’s a pressure to conform to their opinions and behaviors. It’s a good reason to spend as little time as possible with people who undervalue you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Stories get exaggerated, pictures get altered, facts get tampered with. You’ll get a better sense of things you witness firsthand, but even then, there are obstacles to perfect perception. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

By partnership agreement, North’s two-no-trump response showed a maximum pass with at least four spades. South should have jumped straight to game, keeping the opponents in the dark, but he knew that if they also had a 4-4 heart fit, that contract would probably play a trick better than four spades. West led a low club, and Jacoby won the first trick with his king. Jacoby reckoned that South had nine major-suit cards, and as he had ducked the first trick, he clearly had at least two clubs. Perhaps he was 5=4=2=2. So Jacoby switched to a low diamond at trick two, West’s queen forcing out dummy’s ace. With the clubs blocked and no quick dummy entry left, South had to lose a trick in each suit. This was a great result for EastWest, but it wasn’t as good as they anticipated.

Biden announces another $800M in Ukraine defense aid Tribune Content Agency WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden on Thursday announced that the U.S. will send Ukraine another $800 million in security assistance to help it stave off Russia's renewed offensive in the country's eastern Donbas region. The tranche of defense aid, which follows a similar $800 million package last week, will include more heavy artillery and offensive weaponry that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zel-

enskyy has requested as the war shifts into a ground conflict that could go on for months. The package brings the total amount of U.S. defense assistance for Ukraine since the war began to $3.4 billion, a sign of the Biden administration's desire to see the small eastern European democracy survive Russia's unprovoked assault. "We're not sitting on the funding that Congress has provided for Ukraine. We're sending it directly to the frontlines of freedom,” Biden said.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said Thursday that Mariupol had been “liberated,” a phrase Moscow has used in its attempt to portray its invasion as a humanitarian mission to save Ukraine from “neoNazis.” In reality, the war has left thousands of civilians dead, created more than 5 million refugees and rallied international powers in support of Ukraine, a democracy led by a Jewish president. Ukrainian officials, who all but admitted that Mariupol had fallen, said Thursday that there would be additional attempts to evacuate civilians from the region. They also said they wanted to negotiate the status of the city. Speaking on the messaging app Telegram, Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk said that “we demand from the Russians an urgent humanitarian corridor from the Mariupol plant Azovstal. There are now about 1,000 civilians and 500 wounded soldiers. They all need to be removed from Azovstal today.” Separately, a senior Ukrainian official said he was prepared to travel to Mariupol for new negotiations “without any conditions” after several previous rounds of talks failed to produce a cease-fire. “We’re ready to to hold a ‘special round of negotiations’ right in Mariupol,” said presidential adviser Mykhailo Podolyak. “One on one. Two on two. To save our guys, Azov, military, children, the living and the wounded.” The plea came as Zelenskyy received the prime ministers of Spain and Denmark in Kyiv,

This aerial view shows a destroyed residential area in the village of Moshchun, northwest of Kyiv, Ukraine, Wednesday, as more than 5 million Ukrainians have now fled their country following the Russian invasion, the United Nations says. the latest in a series of European leaders to travel to the Ukrainian capital to express their support. After the meeting, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen pledged to send more weapons to Ukrainian fighters. “We have all worldwide seen the reports and images of the horrible crimes committed by Russia in Ukraine, but today we have seen it with our own eyes, and it is heartbreaking,” Frederiksen said. In an overnight video address, Zelenskyy urged his compatriots to remain vigilant. Russians, he said, were not “abandoning their attempts to score at least some victory by launching a new, largescale offensive.” After largely giving up on trying to capture Kyiv, Moscow shifted much of its bombardment and troops to eastern Ukraine earlier this month. Putin appears eager to be able to trumpet some major battlefield victories before the symbolically important date of May 9, when Russia annually celebrates its victory over Nazi Germany in World War II. According to Russia’s defense ministry, its forces struck 1,001 targets overnight with missiles and shell-

ing. Ukraine did not confirm the number, but regional leaders reported several attacks, including intense bombing in the second-largest city of Kharkiv, which sits near the Russian border in the northeast. Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov said Russia was “furiously” bombing overnight, hitting markets and residences. “The situation is stressful,” said Terekhov, who described the city as “tense but under control.” He said about a third of the city’s prewar population of 2 million had fled since March. The war on Ukraine, which has uprooted more than 12 million people, has generated a massive outpouring of global support, including billions of dollars in military assistance and multiple rounds of sanctions against Russia, such as bans on the import of Russian oil and gas. But the U.S. and European powers have refused Kyiv’s pleas for direct air support to fend off Russian attacks. The latest U.S. aid package includes heavy artillery and ammunition for Ukrainian fighters who are redoubling defenses in the east. Biden also said the U.S. would send $500 million in humanitarian funds. In total, the U.S. has now promised

They do no damage to the citrus plants but build themselves up to head out into the area and combat the sharpshooters. The glassy-winged sharpshooters are more native to the southeast United States but have found their way to migrate into California. They were first observed in 1990, according to a pamphlet from the UC Cooperative Extension, and established residences in Kern, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Ventura counties.

A look at the micro-size stingless wasps used to combat the glassywinged sharpshooter in the Browns Valley region of Vacaville, Wednesday. they have been found sporadically in a few Northern California cities like Vacaville.

The city has a population of 102,833, the report states. Vallejo, with 363 posts representing 7.26% of all posts in the city, was 14th on the study list. The “excess drinking rate” also was at 20%. The city’s population is listed at 121,737, the report states. West Covina, with a population of 106,589, had the fewest posts, the study revealed. “It clocked up just 86 alcohol/drunk-related posts equalling a minimal figure of just 1.72%. This is surprising given West Covina is located in Los

As the war raged on Thursday, residents of Ukraine continued to bury their loved ones all across the country. In Irpin, a suburb of Kyiv, Lyudmila Goncharenko stood in the bitter cold of the city’s central cemetery preparing to bury her husband, Nicolay. Goncharenko said her husband was killed by Russian troops on March 4, just days after the war began, but only recently was able to retrieve his body for burial. She said she wants his death investigated as a war crime. At the gravesite, she kissed his picture as cemetery workers filled the grave with dirt. Later, the image was placed on the cross that marked his grave. Outside of major cities, where the military and international humanitarian groups have maintained operations, it’s been local residents who are organizing. A queue stretched near a commercial strip Thursday in Sviatohirsk, an eastern town that is home to a famous 16thcentury monastery.

The sharpshooters are a big threat to California vineyards due to their ability to spread a bacteria that causes Pierce's disease, which kills grapevines. They can also cause disease in almonds, oleanders, mulberry, olive and liquidambar, and citrus. "Sharpshooters love citrus," Morgan said. "They'll get into cherries and suck the living daylights out of them." King said the county first trapped the sharpshooter in October and continued weeks of study to find a sizable population in the area. The process will continue for weeks ahead to continue and fight this public nuisance. Neighbors have been notified of the work in person and by flyer, King said. Biocontrol with the wasps has been found to be 90% effective.

Angeles County which, according to the County Health Rankings, has an excessive drinking rate of 18% – just above the state average,” the statement said. The statement also notes that during the pandemic, the state passed a law that allowed “a crowd-pleasing salve: a temporary legalization of to-go alcoholic drinks from bars and restaurants.” That legislation was authored by Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa, with the general purpose of supporting those businesses,

many of which were shut down or limited to takeout service during the first year of the pandemic. “Like so many other Americans, Californians were affected by anxiety – worry about the coronavirus itself, the economic repercussions and what the future may look like in a postpandemic world. As is the case in more normal times, when people feel stressed or depressed, they reach for the bottle in what they perceive to be a short-term solution,” the statement said.

FAIRFIELD — The Solano Commission for Women and Girls will present its second annual Birth Justice Solano 2022: Education, Awareness and Solutions Toward Better Birth Outcomes report. The free Zoom event is scheduled for 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. May 7. Davon Crawford, a birth and postpartum doula, will be part of the event, which among other things will focus on the fact Black and brown women are three to four times more likely to die from pregnancy or childbirth in the United States. A doula is a woman, typically without formal obstetric training, who provides guidance and support to a pregnant woman during labor. “We found rates of

death in Solano County are the highest of all the Bay Area counties. In an attempt to address this disparity, our event will focus on education from a panel of experts that will include a doula, lactation consultant, and a maternal health therapist to discuss Black maternal and infant health disparities and solutions,” according to a statement released announcing the event. Women will recite their own birthing experiences as part of the event as well. There will be prize drawings and door prizes throughout the event. at Register t i n y u r l . c o m / BirthJusticeSolano2022.

Bottle recycling bill clears committee Daily Republic Staff

DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — Legislation written by Senate President pro Tempore Toni G. Atkins of San Diego and Sen. Bill Dodd to add wine and distilled spirits bottles to California’s recycling program cleared the Senate Environmental Quality C o m m i t t e e on Wednesday. “With this bill we can increase DODD the recycling rates of millions of bottles that would otherwise wind up in our landfills or be illegally discarded,” Dodd, D-Napa, said in a press release. “It’s a win for the environment and a win for consumers. The California Beverage Container Recycling and Litter Reduction Act, established in 1986, encourages consumers to recycle beverage containers by requiring them to pay a deposit for eligible bottles. According to a 2019 report, shared by Dodd’s office, curbside programs received approximately $172 million from the socalled Bottle Bill in 2017, including $15 million that is annually provided from the Beverage Container Recycling Fund.

Although the program includes beer, it does not include wine or spirits. It is estimated that California generates more than 500 million wine and spirits bottles each year, with less than 30% being recycled and more than 300 million wine and spirits bottles going into landfills, according to a press release from Dodd’s office. U n d e r Senate Bill 1013, wine and spirits bottles would be added to the program, leading to more recycling, increased business for recycling centers and reduced processing costs. The expansion would also cut greenhouse gas emissions by almost 200,000 tons of carbon dioxide while reducing litter of wine and spirits containers, which are described in the press release as a visible and dangerous component of urban litter pollution. Dodd currently serves the 3rd Senate District, which includes all of Solano County and all or portions of Napa, Yolo, Sonoma, Contra Costa and Sacramento counties.

USGS, Los Alamos labs combine skills for more accurate, specific wildfire management models Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The U.S. Geological Survey and the Department of Energy Los Alamos National Laboratory have joined forces to create advanced computer models to predict how wildfires will behave in different situations. The agreement between the two agencies was signed Friday, the USGS said in a statement released Wednesday. “The partnership between these two agencies creates an unparalleled opportunity to meet fire managers’ needs at local to continental scales in the priority areas of climate-fire impacts, natural hazards and risk reduction, and ecosystem response to fire,” Dave Applegate, U.S. Geological Survey associate director of Natural Hazards, said in the statement. The partnership combines the long-term fire and land management science and vegetation mapping expertise of the USGS with the advanced modeling capabilities of

the Los Alamos National Lab, the statement said. The Los Alamos National Laboratory over the past 20 years has developed advanced fire-modeling tools – fireatmospheric feedback models – which overcome the limitations of existing fire models by integrating fire behavior with ecological variation, such as subtle changes in vegetation, before, during and after fires, according to the statement. “However, the models need up-todate, high-resolution data, such as weather conditions and available burnable material, to produce high-quality results on fire behavior,” the statement said. That information will come from the USGS, which has for decades been producing data on fire-related science. It has created national datasets and tools to support Department of the Interior land-management agencies. “More recently, the USGS has collected highresolution remote sensing data that can be used to

classify vegetation and other fuels on the landscape. USGS lidar data will increase the accuracy of the Los Alamos National Laboratory’s models,” the statement said. “This partnership leverages USGS expertise in 3D mapping of terrain and vegetation to support the application of the Los Alamos National Laboratory suite of advanced fire-modeling tools and will provide science support to both research communities and fire managers, who will increasingly rely on more sophisticated understanding of fire behavior to confront novel fire behavior under a changing climate,” U.S. Geological Survey Associate Director for Ecosystems Anne Kinsinger said in the statement. Michelle Collier, a USGS spokeswoman, said in a phone interview the intention of the newly created models is to get the information down to the local levels with area- and regional-specific information. “The intention is that they will be widely acces-

sible for any (wildfire) managers,” said Collier, who said the USGS mapping is very specific. “And that gives the models the ability to get down to the local level.” “The agreement also will allow for the “creation of a virtual interagency fire-climate-ecosystem modeling center to sustain and apply emerging modeling technology to real-world fire challenges faced by federal, tribal, state and local land managers.” “We are aiming to create a whole that is greater than the sum of the independent parts,” Rod Linn, the wildfiremodeling team lead at Los Alamos, said in the statement. “Increasingly available higher-fidelity data describing the fire environment, such as fuels, atmosphere and topography, enables modeling efforts to envision and realize a more comprehensive description of fire behavior and fire effects. Forward-thinking model development can inspire creative data collection and mapping directions.”

Police arrest American Canyon man in connection with sex trafficking case Daily Republic Staff DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

VALLEJO — The city Police Department this week arrested a man on suspicion of being involved with the kidnapping and sex trafficking of a 17-year-old Nevada girl, who was in the car at the time of arrest. Ramon Joseph ReyesMedina, 21, of American Canyon, was booked into Solano County jail on suspicion of human trafficking of a minor, two felony evading counts and a misdemeanor allegation of obstructing a peace officer, the jail log states. Reyes-Median was

being held without bail pending an extradition hearing. He was scheduled to appear Friday in Solano Superior Court. “Human sex trafficking is a heinous crime with severe impacts on victims, survivors and families, and we are working diligently to address this issue in the city of Vallejo,” Vallejo police Chief Shawny K. Williams said in a statement released Thursday, two days after the arrest was made. “I am proud of the enforcement efforts by our officers and staff to remove commercial sex traffickers and buyers from our streets.” Police were alerted to

the possible human trafficking case by Nevada officials. An arrest warrant had been issued for suspicion of kidnapping, abuse or neglect of a child involving sexual exploitation, eluding a peace officer and sex trafficking of a 17-year-old juvenile, the police statement said. Officers spotted a vehicle associated with Medina-Reyes about 11:30 p.m. Tuesday. An attempt to stop the car was made, but according to the police statement, the driver “fled the attempted stop.” “A short pursuit ensued when the vehicle crashed into a

center divide in American Canyon,” according to the statement. “The driver, later identified as . . . Reyes Medina, fled on foot and was quickly apprehended.” The 17-year-old girl was among the three passengers in the car, police said. She was placed in the care of county Child Protective Services, along with a local juvenile who had been reported missing. The statement did not make clear whether that second juvenile was from Vallejo or American Canyon or some other local jurisdiction, nor did it indicate the gender or age of the child.

‘Beyond outrageous’: LA company accused of faking hundreds of Covid test results Los Angeles Times LOS ANGELES — A company accused of handing out fake results for hundreds of coronavirus tests will pay more than $20 million under a settlement deal announced by Los Angeles City Attorney Mike Feuer. Feuer and District Attorney George Gascón accused Sameday Technologies and its chief executive, Felix Huettenbach, of sending fake results to hundreds of people, telling them they had tested negative for the coronavirus when laboratories had not actually run their tests. Some tests were never processed at all, according to the complaint filed in court Wednesday. More than 500 test results are “confirmed or suspected to be faked, falsified, or forged,” the attorneys wrote. In their complaints, they alleged Sameday would forge a negative result – at the direction of its CEO – when someone who had not gotten their result in time complained or threatened to report the company. Sameday said in a statement that it was founded in September 2020 “to make fast, reliable Covid testing available to everyone.” “In the early days, amidst the chaos of massive surges in demand for services, and shortages in supplies, we failed to meet the standards for excellence our customers deserve,” the company said. “We have corrected the problems that arose back in 2020 and have made significant investments in compliance and systems to ensure that we meet our customers’ expectations.” In the settlement agreement being proposed to the court, the company agreed to pay $22.5 million, including more than $9.6 million

in restitution and nearly $13 million to the city and county to enforce consumer protection laws. Under the settlement, Sameday is also required to comply with a court injunction banning it from making false claims and engaging in other illegal business practices. A spokesman for Feuer said the settlement deal must be approved by the judge. Dr. Jeff Toll, a physician who was accused of teaming with the company to get reimbursed by health insurers for medically unnecessary consultations, also agreed to pay nearly $4 million to resolve allegations of insurance fraud, the city attorney’s office said. D. Shawn Burkley, an attorney representing Toll, denied any wrongdoing: “We settled the matter, but we do not believe that Dr. Toll did anything that was unethical.” Feuer and Gascon alleged that Sameday promised it could turn around results in 24 hours for a $195 charge, but “the promise was false – Sameday could not guarantee a 24-hour turnaround time” because its contracts with outside labs “expressly stated that they could not deliver results that quickly.” Unable to provide results as quickly as promised, the company soon began faking coronavirus test results by taking reports from previous consumers who had tested negative, then changing the name, dates and other identifying information to match the new person, the L.A. attorneys alleged. They also alleged that Sameday engaged in health insurance fraud, working with Toll to charge insurance companies an additional fee for “medical consultations.” Sameday steered people to the doctor for

A nasal swab is collected at a coronavirus testing site in Rancho Cucamonga. “medically unnecessary” consultations that he submitted for reimbursement from health insurers, and the company got the bulk of his profits for the consultations, their complaint alleged. To rack up more insurance claims, Sameday also set up a virtual call center for physicians who were supposed to do roughly 100 consultations a day – each of them three minutes long – which occurred after people had already taken their coronavirus tests and, in many cases, gotten a negative result, the complaint alleged. The attorneys alleged that more than 80,000 claims were submitted to health insurers for medically unnecessary consultations and the company collected millions of dollars from California-based insurance claims. “It’s beyond outrageous that anyone would

falsify Covid tests, as we allege happened here. If you get a negative test, you assume it’s safe to go to work, visit family and friends, or take a vacation. But the victims of this alleged scheme might unknowingly have spread Covid to others or failed to receive timely and appropriate care themselves,” Feuer said in a statement. Sameday Technologies, which has been doing business as Sameday Health, is based in Los Angeles and has been offering coronavirus testing across the country, advertising itself on its website as “the most trusted Covid-19 testing solution for teams and businesses.” In a television segment sponsored by the company, Huettenbach said that the downside of PCR testing is that “it usually takes a bit longer because you have to transport the samples to a laboratory to get them processed. But we’ve nailed

the logistics of that down so in most of our locations it’s less than 24 hours.” Sameday Health has faced concerns about its business practices before: In December, New York Atty. Gen. Letitia James sent a warning letter to the company for “misleading advertising” on the speed of its testing results, stating that consumers were waiting longer than Sameday had promised after paying for expedited testing. Earlier this year, her office announced that Sameday was refunding more than $230,000 to thousands of customers who were charged for expedited results. The company has also been sued over its employment practices. One of those lawsuits, brought under a California law that enables aggrieved employees to seek civil penalties for themselves, other workers

and the state, alleges that the company misclassified workers as independent contractors and paid them “based on an unrealistic 40-hour workweek assumption; in reality, to do the job correctly, they were required to spend 40-60 hours of work per week without payment of required wages” including overtime. That case is still pending. In another suit against Sameday alleging wage violations, the company recently said in court filings that it did not oppose a motion to tentatively approve a class-action settlement – which would include a payment of $300,000 by the company and other defendants – but did not accept the premise that the class members were “employees.” Sameday said Wednesday that it had no additional comment on the matter.

3 current, former San Francisco cops charged with destroying evidence, taking gun from property room Los Angeles Times Two San Francisco police officers and a retired officer were charged this week in two criminal cases involving drugs that were flushed down a hotel toilet instead of being collected as evidence and a submachine gun that went missing from police custody. Officer Kevin Lyons was charged with two misdemeanor counts of destroying evidence, and Officer Kevin Sien

was charged with one count. Retired Officer Mark Williams was charged with three felonies: unlawful possession of a machine gun, possession of a silencer and embezzlement, San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin said Tuesday. The officers surrendered to authorities later that day. In July, Lyons and Sien responded to a call at the San Francisco Marriott Marquis after staffers found what they thought was methamphetamine,

multiple credit cards and identification cards in the luggage of a guest who was locked out of their room for nonpayment, prosecutors said. When Lyons and Sien arrived at the hotel, they told the workers it would take too long to catalog all the evidence. The officers then shredded the credit cards and ID cards, while Lyons flushed the suspected drugs down a hotel toilet, authorities said. They were reported to internal affairs

the next day. Lyons, a 21-year veteran of the San Francisco Police Department, and Sien, a five-year veteran, were both transferred to assignments without public contact, according to the department. “The actions of these SFPD members violate the law and regrettably fall far short of our department’s shared values,” Police Chief Bill Scott said in a statement. “As sworn police officers, we have no higher obli-

gation than to earn and maintain public trust, and we are disappointed that these incidents detract from the outstanding work done by our officers and non-sworn members every day.” Sien’s attorney, Christopher Shea, said “there’s a lot of daylight between sloppy police work and criminal conduct.” He accused Boudin of filing a criminal charge that he said could have been rectified as an administrative matter within the Police Department.

Supreme Court rules for California family seeking painting looted by Nazis

DAILY REPUBLIC — Friday, April 22, 2022 A11

Are You Disabled & Can’t Work?

You May Be Entitled To Social Security Benefits

Los Angeles Times WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court ruled Thursday for a California family seeking to recover a Pissarro painting looted by a Nazi official in 1939 and eventually put on display in a Spanish museum. The 9-0 ruling does not resolve the dispute but sends the case back to a courtroom in Los Angeles to decide the matter based on California law, which is more favorable to the family. The justices overturned a ruling that said the painting had been lawfully obtained under Spanish law. In their appeal, lawyers for the Cassirer family argued that an unlawful transaction would not be upheld as legal under California law. “The path of our decision has been as short as the hunt for Rue SaintHonoré was long,” said Justice Elena Kagan for the court. “Our ruling is as simple as the conflict over its rightful owner has been vexed. A foreign state or instrumentality. . . is liable just as a private party would be. That means the standard choice-of-law rule must apply. In a property-law dispute like this one, that standard rule is the forum state’s (here, California’s).” The case was Cassirer vs. Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection Foundation. Last year, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals agreed with a federal judge in Los Angeles that the painting of a Paris street scene by Camille Pissarro should remain with the Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection at a state-owned museum in Madrid. The judges did so by applying Spanish law. The painting had been brought to the U.S. illegally after the war, and it was sold by a Beverly Hills gallery in 1951. The Stephen Hahn Gallery in New York arranged for its sale in 1976 to Baron Hans Heinrich von ThyssenBornemisza, a Swiss art collector and the heir to a German steel empire. In 1993, he sold his collection of more than 775 paintings for $340 million to Spain, where they would be exhibited at a new museum in Madrid. The artworks were displayed publicly for more than six years, a key issue under Spanish law. But all the while, Claude Cassirer had been searching for the lost painting that hung on the wall of his grandmother Lilly’s apartment in Berlin. She turned over the painting to a Nazi official in 1939 to obtain a visa out of Germany. Separately, her grandson escaped to Britain and then to Cleveland after the war. When Lilly Cassirer died, she left the rights to the painting to Claude. In a house outside San Diego, where Claude and his wife had retired, the couple kept a copy of the lost Pissarro on the wall. Then in 2000, Cassirer received a phone call from an old acquaintance: The painting had been found. “I was in shock,” he told The Times in 2010. After being rebuffed by the Spanish government, he filed suit in 2005 in a federal court in Los Angeles seeking to recover the painting, now valued at $30 million. The state-owned museum sought to have the suit thrown out based on the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976, which usually protects foreign governments from being sued. But the law has an “expropriation exception” for property confiscated in violation of international law.

General view of the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum and Paseo del Prado in Madrid, Spain, March 12, 2020. U.S. District Judge John Walter ruled that under Spanish law, the museum had openly purchased the paintings and put them them on display

in public for years. While the baron had “reasons for suspicion” that the painting may have been stolen and the museum “may have been irresponsible”

in failing to investigate its history, Walter said neither had “actual knowledge” that the painting had been essentially stolen by the Nazis.

game against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisc., Jan. 22.

Championship Game? There’s still time to mount their latest second-half comeback with three offseason months left before training camp opens. Step 1? That’s easy. The most important move the 49ers can make is to find a way to keep Samuel in the fold. The first-team All-Pro hasn’t spelled out the reasons for his trade request, but his demand – coupled with his scrubbing of all references to the 49ers from his social-media accounts – makes it clear the relationship needs mending.

They lost anchors of their offensive line (left guard Laken Tomlinson) and defensive line (nose guard D.J. Jones) in free agency. And that departure of brawn roughly coincided with an exit of brains: Ivy League-edu-

The 49ers, under head coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch, have been here before. And they have displayed a decent diplomatic touch in such situations.

Former Raiders great Lamonica has died at 80, family confirms Tribune Content Agency FRESNO — NFL All-Pro and Clovis (Calif.) High School graduate Daryle Lamonica has died. Lamonica, who was 80, is also the namesake of the school’s football stadium. A family member confirmed the death on Thursday but declined to immediately comment further. The Fresno County Coroner’s Office said Lamonica died at his Fresno home Thursday morning and that the cause of death is considered to be natural causes. “The Clovis Unified community lost an icon today with the passing of legendary athlete Daryle Lamonica, the namesake of Lamonica Stadium on the Clovis High School campus. Lamonica established a high standard of athletic excellence, performance

and character for student athletes who followed his graduation from Clovis High School. In recognition of Lamonica’s impact on local high school athletics, and his outstanding collegiate and professional career, Clovis High School’s football stadium was named in his honor in 1974. Daryle Lamonica was also an inaugural honoree in both Clovis Unified’s Athletic Hall of Fame in 2016, and in Clovis High School’s Football Hall of Fame in 2018. His legacy is one that lives on not only through the beloved stadium that bears his name, but in the coaches, student athletes, and fans who are a part of the Clovis Unified athletic tradition,” Clovis Unified wrote in a statement. Lamonica in college played quarterback at Notre Dame, and the 6-foot-3, 218-pounder was drafted by Green Bay Packers and

the Buffalo Bills. That was before the NFL merger in 1966. He signed with the Bills and later played for the Oakland Raiders. Announcer Howard Cosell gave him the nickname “The Mad Bomber” in 1967 while watching Lamonica play on Monday Night Football. He told Sports Illustrated at first he thought it was a “dumb name,” but quickly changed his mind. “I thought, ‘Ooh. I like that. Maybe that is not such a bad nickname.’ It stuck and that is what I ended up with. . . . Now it’s my registered trademark.” Lamonica accomplished a lot on the field.

• He played football and baseball and lettered in four sports (football, baseball, track and basketball) at Clovis High.

NEW YORK — The Giants have granted few three-year deals in Farhan Zaidi’s tenure as the team’s top baseball executive, and starter Anthony DeSclafani got one this winter worth $36 million. He then put together a super spring, but so far, the regular season has not been DeSclafani’s friend. Thursday in New York was particularly rough. The team’s ninegame string of not allowing a home run ended when Francisco Lindor and Eduardo Escobar hit solo shots in the Mets’ 6-2 victory, which served the Giants their first series loss of the season. The Giants’ nohomers streak was at 308 consecutive batters before Lindor’s firstinning blast to right. It had been the longest such streak in the majors and included 216 consecutive batters without a homer in Giants’ road games, the

longest such start to a season by a National League team since the 2015 Astros’ staff was HR-free for 218 batters. “I would say it’s going happen eventually,” DeSclafani said of the streak ending. “But I feel like we’re good enough to keep the ball in the yard. It’s just unfortunate it came to an end.” DeSclafani gave up two runs in each of his first two starts and didn’t make it out of the fifth. Thursday, he worked five innings and allowed five earned runs, putting his ERA at a team-high 6.08. “He doesn’t have the best stuff right now. I think it’s just one of those things where you have to hang in there with him,” manager Gabe Kapler said. “We trust Tony, he was a great pitcher for us last year. And he went through some starts last year where he didn’t have his best stuff as well.” DeSclafani said he’s See Giants, Page B3

Sheldon Neuse, Sean Murphy spark A’s 6-4 win over Orioles Tribune Content Agency With a lineup bereft of many big-name hitters, the A’s will need some hitters to make names for themselves this season. In Thursday’s 6-4 win over Baltimore at the Coliseum, two men were namely responsible for the victory: infielder Sheldon Neuse and catcher Sean Murphy. Slotted second and third in the order, respectively, Neuse and Murphy each had three hits. Neuse drove in two runs, Murphy three. Neuse hit .250 in 25 games for the A’s in 2019, batted .169 in 33 games for the Dodgers last year and was claimed by the A’s off waivers from L.A. on March 16. He had a double

and two singles Thursday, making him 14-for-38 (.368) this season. “Sheldon’s approach has been spot-on. He’s worked really hard,” A’s manager Mark Kotsay said. “You can see the determination, the desire and want in Sheldon every day.” Murphy won a Gold Glove last season, but batted .216. He does possess plenty of power at the plate, as evidenced by his 411-foot, two-run homer to left off Keegan Akin in the fifth inning Thursday. Murphy added a single and a double, making him 14-for-54 (.259) this season. “We’re going to continue to see growth” in Murphy as a hitter, See A’s, Page B3

Stroman takes pride in being an athlete – not just a pitcher Meghan Montemurro CHICAGO TRIBUNE

CHICAGO — Blustery, cold weather Tuesday afternoon did not stop Chicago Cubs pitcher Marcus Stroman from partaking in his regular between-starts routine during batting practice before a game against the Tampa Bay Rays at Wrigley Field. Stroman, sporting lime green Nikes, positioned himself at shortstop, ready for any BP balls hit his way. He leaped in the air at a liner shortly after trying to run down a ball in shallow center field. Stroman takes pride in being an athlete, not just a big-league pitcher. It’s part of a purposeful approach to how he prepares his body to take the mound every fifth day. “I feel like a lot of pitchers become pitchers, and when you do, you kind of lose your athleticism and become like a robot,” Stroman told the Tribune. “I truly believe that being an athlete . . . converts to being a great pitcher – being able to have repeatable mechanics, being able to make adjustments in game. When you’re an athlete, all those things happen much easier.” Stroman frequently discussed this topic with New York Mets righthander Jacob deGrom while they were teammates in 2019 and 2021. Stroman referenced deGrom’s stellar mechanics and said the two-time Cy Young Award winner always preached the importance of being an athlete. “I‘m someone who’s an athlete first, not a pitcher,” Stroman, 30, said. “I make very good in-game adjustments because I’m an athlete. And at the end of the day, I go out there and just perform. I don’t think at all when I’m clear out there. I’m just

in space and I’m moving. I think that’s when I’m at my best.” Stroman, who signed a three-year, $71 million contract with the Cubs in the offseason, still is trying to find that consistent rhythm after struggling Wednesday against the Rays in his third start of the season. He gave up four runs in the first and finished with eight runs allowed (seven earned) on eight hits and two walks with seven strikeouts in 4⅓ innings. The Cubs lost 8-2 when the game was called because of rain after 5½ innings. Stroman showed signs in his Cubs debut when he allowed one run and two hits in five innings with three walks and three strikeouts, but he gave up five runs in four innings in his second start. When he is locked in, Stroman can go on a run of quality starts. Growing up in Medford, N.Y., on Long Island, baseball was Stroman’s third-favorite sport. He ranked it behind basketball and football with soccer also among the sports he played. But he realized he could go the furthest in baseball, ultimately getting a scholarship to Duke, where he became the first Blue Devil to be drafted in the first round. It was there he met Nikki Huffman, who later was part of the team that oversaw his recovery from ACL surgery in his left knee after suffering the injury during 2015 spring training with the Toronto Blue Jays. Huffman now trains Stroman, and he credits her for helping him learn about his body. Stroman understands how everything should move and what he needs to do when something feels off. He compared himself and Huffman to scientists who are always tinkering and learning.

The key, Stroman said, is they always are pushing the needle and never get complacent. “She knows my body better than me, like, I can’t even put into words how thankful and lucky I am to have Nikki in my corner,” Stroman said. “I wake up every day and tell her how my body’s feeling essentially, and she puts a program together daily. She’s huge for my development. “I think that’s why I’m durable. That’s why I’m 5-foot-7 but I’m going to go out there and throw hopefully 180, 200 innings year after year. It’s because of how much work goes into it.” Aside from the biomechanics, Stroman trains his body and wants to be balanced. As a righthanded pitcher, a lot of his movement and delivery is right-side dominant. So anything he does with the right he mirrors with his left. That includes boxing left-handed and going through his pitching motion lefty. If he throws, say, 100 pitches in a start, by the time he gets to his next outing, he will try to go through his delivery 100 times left-handed.

Stroman believes this mirroring approach allows for better recovery and is why he was able to go from zero innings pitched in 2020 – when he opted out of the season because of Covid-19 concerns –to 179 innings in 2021. “As athletes, we’re always going one way so we never unwind,” Stroman said. “We never go the other way. And when you do and when you start to really become a balanced athlete, it allows you to go the way that you go way better, more efficient, way more stable.” When a pitcher is described as athletic, the first thought might be someone who moves well on the mound and fielding the position. But the descriptor entails more than that. Cubs pitching coach Tommy Hottovy points to how players who fit that mold, like Stroman, are under control but then explosive at the end of their delivery. “To the average fan it may look like you’re just grinding through an outing and you could See Stroman, Page B12

NAPA — Luis Urias and Brayan Orrantia each blasted solo home runs and the Armijo High baseball team overcame an early 4-1 deficit in earning a 9-4 non-league victory over JustinSiena, Wednesday. The Royals took the lead for good with four runs in the top of the fourth inning on three hits, two walks and an error. Urias and Orrantia belted their home runs in the top of the sixth and Armijo added two more in the seventh. Dameion Regalado went 3-for-4, while Urias, Orrantia and TJ Lipkins each had two hits with Lipkins hitting a double and Caden Magno reaching base four times, scoring twice.

Wheatland 11, Rio Vista 1: In tournament play on Wednesday, the Rams (8-13) got three times as many hits as their earlier game but it didn’t mean any more scoring. Ryan Zamarripa, Jameson Bloesch and Ethan Perkins each had singles with Bloesch plating Sam Lara with Rio Vista’s lone tally

of the game.

A’s: 4,429 fans in attendance From Page B1 Kotsay said. “There are still going to be struggles . . . but it’s good to see the trend is on the way up.” One other Oakland hitter made a name for himself Thursday: Infielder Nick Allen, 23, got his first major-league hit, a double down the right-field line in the seventh. He then scored on a single by Neuse. Known for his defense, Allen made his big-league debut Tuesday night. He was asked which is a bigger thrill: playing in your first big-league game or getting your first bigleague hit? “I think both have their own thrills,” Allen said, “but I’m glad with the hit. . . . I feel like, ‘Now, let’s go. Let’s do whatever I can to help the team win and have me show what I can do.’” Not crowded house: Thursday’s announced attendance of 4,429 brought the total for the four-game series to 28,383. In other words, a decent-size crowd for one game. Winning pitcher Paul Blackburn, a HeritageBrentwood alum, offered a strong perspective on

the attendance issue. “Seeing it from a fan’s perspective, and I’m speaking from the heart a little bit, I understand it’s tough,” Blackburn said. “We’ve had a lot of good players over the last four or five years . . . and to see those guys leave, from a fan perspective, I get it. “But one thing I’ll say is that we have a lot of good players in this clubhouse. Maybe guys just haven’t made their name for themselves yet, but to the fans out there, I promise you guys we’re going to fight. “We’re going to fight to the last out. I don’t think fans really realize the amount of effect they have on a game. It’s a long year. Coming to a stadium where there are 15,000, 20,000, bringing energy, it definitely helps guys – and it picks guys up on those days that are grindy.” Blackburn improved to 2-0 by holding the Orioles to a run on three hits in five innings. He struck out four and did not issue a walk. With two outs in the fourth, Trey Mancini hit a ball that caromed off Blackburn’s left shin. Blackburn left the game after one more inning.

He said the shin bothered him some, but he expects to make his next start. He expressed his appreciation for his team and teammates. “Nobody loves playing in Oakland more than we do,” he said. “We come in here with a dog mentality and we’re going to fight. It doesn’t bother us, whether there’s 60,000 out there or 600.” Early exit: Baltimore manager Brandon Hyde didn’t make it through Thursday’s game. First-base umpire Rob Drake ejected Hyde in the fourth inning. Hyde appeared to have a legitimate beef. With two outs in the top of the inning, Mancini reached on a throwing error by Allen, playing second base — on the ball that hit Blackburn’s shin. Murphy retrieved the throw in foul territory. Mancini barely – if at all – made a move toward second base, but when Murphy tagged Mancini before he returned to first, Drake called Mancini out. Soon thereafter, Hyde was out of the game.

with a pair of Bay Valley Conference victories over the Eagles, winning 5-4 at home on Tuesday and 5-4 in Oakland on Wednesday. In the first game, Austin Menesini plated Jaxson Bates with a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the fifth inning to put the Falcons (11-22, 8-9 BVC) ahead 4-3 and Eli De Guzman singled in Jason Pridy later in the frame to round out Solano’s scoring. The Falcons got on the board with two runs in the bottom of the first when Nico Castrillo scored on a wild pitch and Pridy singled in Menesini, adding one in the third on a Menesini solo home run. Pridy finished with three hits, while Castrillo and De Guzman each had two with Bates adding a triple. On the mound, Richard Mealey scattered 11 hits to get the win, allowing three earned runs with five strikeouts and one walk. In Wednesday’s game, the Falcons never trailed after scoring twice in the top of the first on a Menesini sacrifice fly and Pridy RBI single, adding one in the second and three in the third. In the second, Bates singled in Dimitri McLen with an unearned run and in the third, McLen had a two-run single and was later singled in by Castrillo. Pridy again had three hits, while Castrillo, Bates and McLen each had two. Kyle Boll gave the Falcons another solid start, allowing seven hits and two runs over the first seven innings, striking out five and walking none, with Josh Petrill finishing with two scoreless frames, yielding one hit and no walks while fanning four.

DAILY REPUBLIC — Friday, April 22, 2022 B3

Giants: Fall again From Page B1 not staying back well enough, which starts a chain of trouble. “I’m kind of coming off the ball early and leaving stuff up in the zone,” he said. DeSclafani’s fastball is down 2-3 mph from his high of 95 last year, but he also was down to 93 mph the last month or so of last season; he threw only seven fastballs Thursday. “I think it’s just the location is just not where I want it to be,” he said. “We’re still just trying to hone that in and I feel when we crisp that up, the stuff will be better.” His slider had slightly less spin and less break than usual Thursday; many pitchers have mentioned this week how difficult it has been to grip the ball in the cold, dry weather. DeSclafani’s rough day wasn’t the only issue for the Giants. They scored a run in the second when Carlos Carrasco hit Brandon Crawford and gave up singles to Wilmer Flores and Thairo Estrada, but then Carrasco didn’t give up another hit until Mike Yastrzemski’s homer off the facing of the second deck in the eighth inning. Tyler Beede worked two innings and allowed three hits, a walk and a run and he struck out one. The Mets are the first team in the majors to reach 10 wins and Mark Canha, who drove in two Thursday, is batting .455 with runners in scoring position. Duggar to go on IL: Outfielder Steven Duggar left in the second inning, during his first at-bat, after grimacing and grabbing his side after a swing;

the Giants announced that he has a left oblique strain. Duggar was replaced by Mauricio Dubón, who inherited a two-strike count and struck out on a missed bunt attempt; the K was charged to Duggar. Duggar said he first felt the oblique grab a bit in the second game Tuesday when he tried to hold up a swing in his last at-bat against Max Scherzer. He got treatment, everything was OK Wednesday. Thursday he said: “The first swing off Carrasco, I felt it kind of lock up on me pretty good, a little firmer than than usual. Then the second swing was just pretty much unbearable.” The doubleheader, the travel schedule and the cold weather probably did not help. Duggar, given his first opportunity at regular playing time since 2019, now must work his way back to health and LaMonte Wade Jr., last year’s starter in left, is likely to come off the IL in the next two weeks. “It’s really frustrating,” Duggar said, noting that he’s been having good at-bats and hitting the ball hard. “Running out there every day, I’m just feeling really comfortable and confident. This one hurts.” Oblique strains typically take 4-6 weeks of recovery time, and Kapler said Duggar will go on the injured list. Luke Williams might be the first option to return to the team, with Heliot Ramos also a possibility. Wade, who like Duggar bats lefthanded, is expected to start a rehab assignment soon after missing the first few weeks of the season with a knee injury.

Viking epic ‘The Northman’ puts the art before the Norse

Crossword

Justin Chang

LOS ANGELES TIMES

N

ot long into Robert Eggers’ “The Northman,” a mad and mesmerizing song of Iceland and fire, the camera plunges down into darkness, as if it had suddenly been swallowed up by the Earth. It’s A.D. 895, on a frigid North Atlantic island, and we’re following a scrawny young Viking prince, Amleth (Oscar Novak), and his scraggly bearded father, King Aurvandil (Ethan Hawke), as they descend into a firelit temple, where the royal stripling is led through a muddy, bloody rite of manhood. Amid much growling, howling, floating and farting, Aurvandil predicts his own impending demise and makes Amleth vow to avenge him – an oath sealed in blood and destined to be fulfilled with great geysers of gore and lava. There are many such grim prophecies and elemental eruptions in “The Northman,” starting with the movie’s arresting opening shot of a volcano belching smoke, fire and voiceover. (I didn’t catch every word, but the volcano might as well be saying, “Behold. Cinema.”) Aurvandil’s fatalistic vision will soon be proved correct: After returning home from distant battlefields, the king is brutally slain by his brother, Fjolnir (Claes Bang, “The Square”). Amleth, having witnessed his uncle’s betrayal, barely escapes alive but vows to return and avenge his father, as promised, and save his mother, Queen Gudrun (Nicole Kidman), whom Fjolnir has taken as his wife. And return he will decades later, now played by a strapping, towering Alexander Skarsgard in full-blown Old Norse berserker mode, who tears into this role like a man — and an actor – seizing hold of his destiny. If you sense some mimicry in this madness, well spotted: The legend of Prince Amleth was the direct inspiration for “Hamlet,” though Skarsgard’s mighty warrior also hails from a cinematic pantheon of vengeance seekers broad enough to include Conan the Barbarian, Maximus and Inigo Montoya. If that makes “The Northman” sound derivative, it is: a witchy brew of Old Norse mythology, Hollywood pageantry and proto-Shakespearean revenge epic. But Skarsgard (also one of the movie’s producers) has found an ideal collaborator in Eggers, a director sufficiently steeped in film history to know the difference between inspiration and imitation. Like his memorable period freakouts “The Witch” and “The Lighthouse,” though on a vastly more ambitious scale, “The Northman” is both a dazzling display of film craft and a sly retooling of genre, a movie that delights in fulfilling certain conventions

Alexander Skarsgard stars as Amleth in “The Northman.” while turning others on their artfully severed heads. And so while it’s clear enough how Amleth’s story will end, the long arc of his journey takes unpredictable, even unsettling turns. When we first meet Skarsgard’s fully grown Amleth, he’s joined a band of murderous marauders, clad in wolf skins as they bring a Slavic village to its knees. Eggers, shooting nearly every scene in fluid, intricately choreographed long takes, gives the action the deliberation and intensity of an ancient ritual. (The sweepingly immersive cinematography is by Jarin Blaschke, the spare, purposeful editing by Louise Ford.) This violence is the way of the world, the movie suggests, and the atrocities we’re witnessing – a burning hut evokes the wartime conflagrations of Elem Klimov’s “Come and See” – are as unexceptional as they are unbearable. Amleth, courting and thwarting our sympathies at will, is a very strong link in an endless chain of death. (He’s not alone, to judge by an end-credits crawl loaded with names like “Hrolfur Split-Lip” and “Thorfinnr Tooth-Gnasher.”) As Amleth goes on his latest feral rampage, you can’t help but wonder about how many children he’s orphaning and how many spinoff revenge dramas he’s setting in motion. And Skarsgard, a charmer with an undercurrent of aloofness, is perfectly cast as a warrior so numb to carnage that it takes a supernatural intervention to remind him of his sworn mission: Fjolnir, Amleth learns, has been dethroned and fled with Gudrun and his sons to Iceland. It’s only fitting that this news is delivered by a witchy seeress played by Iceland’s biggest star, Bjork, resplendent in oracular blue lighting and a Cher-worthy seashellringed headdress. Bjork is one of two prominent Icelandic talents pressed into service here. The other is poet and novelist Sjon, who co-wrote the screenplay with Eggers (and who supplied lyrics for Bjork’s last major movie, 2000’s “Dancer in the Dark”). Their involvement speaks to Eggers’ characteris-

tic insistence on verisimilitude, born of an obsessive, researchdriven approach to filmmaking that might seem persnickety if it weren’t so passionate. A production and costume designer before he turned to directing, Eggers has become our great builder of worlds in extremis: After the spooky Puritan New England of “The Witch” and the lonely maritime outpost of “The Lighthouse,” he once again conjures a nightmarish vision of humanity on the precipice. But despite the fastidiousness of “The Northman’s” animal-pelts-and-chain-mail aesthetic, the filmmaking feels freer, looser and nuttier this time around – and not just because the spotty visual record of ancient Viking culture leaves plenty to an artist’s imagination. (The director’s splendid regular collaborators include production designer Craig Lathrop and costume designer Linda Muir.) Happily, Eggers makes movies, not research papers, and his sweet spot is that zone where his art-film idiosyncrasies merge with a genuine flair for Hollywood showmanship. Witness the self-consciously florid dialogue, sometimes poetically heightened to the point of torture. Witness too the inspired scenery chewing and quasi-Scandinavian accents indulged by Hawke (gone too soon) and especially Kidman, whose performance as the seemingly demure Gudrún turns out to be one of the movie’s most deliciously barbed surprises. You may recall that Skarsgard and Kidman play a troubled couple in the HBO miniseries “Big Little Lies,” an association that gives Amleth and Gudrun’s eventual scenes together that much more of a feverish Oedipal charge. But Eggers is in no mood to hasten the family reunions and revelations. There’s a productive tension at the heart of “The Northman,” a tug-of-war between the Hollywood revenge-epic tradition from which it superficially hails and the sharper, more subversive dismantling of simplistic payback fantasies it wants to be.

Sudoku

by Phillip Alder Not noticing the bidding, a cynic asked, “Did someone pretty make four hearts?” The SLM disdained to reply. Sitting West was Rebecca Richards (began the SLM). She had a smile that lit up a room. However, at the bridge table she smiled rarely. She expected perfect play from both her partner and herself. Against three no-trump, Rebecca led a low spade, dummy winning with the queen and East helpfully dropping the jack. Declarer played a diamond to his hand, then a heart toward the dummy, ducking when West played the 10. Rebecca persevered with the spade king, declarer winning with his ace. Now came a second heart, Rebecca playing the queen. This gave South a losing option. If East had the heart ace-jack left, South had to play dummy’s king. But after some thought, he called for the heart eight. East had to win with the ace and didn’t have a spade to lead. Declarer claimed an overtrick. “You nincompoop!” cried Rebecca, who had an interesting turn of phrase. “You should have overtaken my heart 10 with your ace, then returned your second spade. I must regain the lead in hearts, and we defeat the contract.” East muttered about West playing the heart queen on the first round, but no one was listening.

Actor Johnny Depp testifies during his defamation trial against his ex-wife Amber Heard, at the Fairfax County Circuit Courthouse in Fairfax, Virginia, Thursday.

Violent texts sent by Johnny Depp heard during trial Tribune Content Agency The cross-examination of Johnny Depp continued Thursday at his defamation trial, with a lawyer for ex-wife Amber Heard reading aloud graphic and violent-natured text messages the actor wrote and questioning him about his drug use. Heard’s lawyer, J. Benjamin Rottenborn, referenced multiple messages that Depp sent about Heard in 2013 to his friend and fellow actor Paul Bettany. One message read, “Let’s drown her before we burn her,” with Depp also mentioning having sex with Heard’s corpse afterward “to make sure she’s dead.” Depp confirmed that Rottenborn was reading the messages correctly as the lawyer presented them to the Fairfax County Circuit Court in Virginia. On Thursday, Depp also told the courtroom that Heard would use the term “monster” as a “way of referencing whether she perceived that I was on substances or taking substances.” He said drugs and alcohol were a point of contention during their marriage, and that he’d tried a variety of drugs by the time he turned 15. “They have always been a medicine for me, yes,” Depp, 58, told the court. “A numbing agent. . . . It is to numb the residual pain that I carry from my youth.” Heard’s lawyer read multiple messages during the hearing in which Depp appeared to reference drug use, including an April 2015 text where the actor raved about his relationship with Heard. “All I had to do was send the monster away

and lock him up,” Depp wrote to Jerry Judge, his longtime security guard. “We’ve been happier than ever.” A 2014 message, meanwhile, involved Depp apologizing to Heard after a plane flight. “Once again, I find myself in a place of shame and regret,” Depp’s message read. “Of course I am sorry. I really don’t know why or what happened but I will never do it again. I want to get better for you and for me. I must. My illness somehow crept up and grabbed me.” Depp claimed days later in a text to Bettany that he drank alcohol and consumed pills and “powders.” Depp denied to the court Thursday that he blacked out during the flight from Boston to Los Angeles, saying there’s a difference between blacking out and being on opiates. “When I write a text, especially if I’m in a particularly impassioned place, it’s a canvas,” Depp told the court Thursday. “It’s a painting. You choose your colors.” Depp sued Heard for defamation over a 2018 op-ed she wrote for the Washington Post, in which she described herself as “a public figure representing domestic abuse.” Heard didn’t name Depp in the piece, but had previously accused the actor of physical and verbal abuse, which he denies. The cross-examination at the Fairfax, Virginia, courtroom began Wednesday afternoon following two days of testimony from Depp. During Tuesday’s hearing, Heard told the seven-person jury, “I’m not some maniac that needs to be high or loaded all the time.”

Jobless claims eased last week, showing tight labor market

Mortgage rates are rising. Will that slow our out-of-control housing market?

Tribune Content Agency

Los Angeles Times

Applications for U.S. state unemployment insurance fell slightly last week to a level that’s consistent with an exceptionally tight labor market. unemInitial ployment claims decreased by 2,000 to 184,000 in the week ended April 16, Labor Department data showed Thursday. The median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of economists called for 180,000 initial applications. Continuing claims for state benefits dropped to 1.42 million in the week ended April 9, the lowest since 1970.

The continued low level of filings for jobless benefits – close to the lowest since the 1960s – highlights a job market in which demand for labor exceeds supply. The latest claims figures correspond with the survey week for the Labor Department’s monthly jobs report, which will be released on May 6. On an unadjusted basis, initial claims decreased by more than 27,000 to 196,897 last week. Missouri, Michigan and Ohio were states registering the biggest declines in unadjusted claims. Connecticut and New Jersey led those with increases in applications last week.

Netflix subscriber woes hint at US consumer pushback on prices Tribune Content Agency Love may be blind, but consumers aren’t. At least when it comes to higher prices. A couple dollars more a month normally isn’t enough to move the needle, but when Americans are facing the fastest inflation in 40 years, something has got to give. And for 600,000 people in the U.S. and Canada, that something was their subscription to Netflix Inc. Consumer spending is by far the biggest contributor to the U.S. economy, and economists are keenly looking for any signs that higher prices are starting to chip away at demand. The latest quarterly results from Netflix, which counts TV shows like “Love Is Blind” and “Bridgerton” among its biggest hits, may provide some evidence that it’s already in motion. “It’s a very early signal,” said Neil Saunders, managing director at GlobalData. “One of the things people will most certainly look to cut as inflation bites are those recurring payments month in and month out, and that obviously includes streaming.” Earnings season is just getting underway, and there are other pockets of the economy where consumers are pushing back on higher prices. Retailers like Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. blamed slowing sales in part on inflation that’s hurting consumer confidence, and grocery chain Albertsons Inc. is bracing for less spending by lowerincome customers as food bills surge. For Netflix, there are a few other factors at play. Competition from other streaming services like Hulu and Disney+ is heating up, and as the world returns to normal, people are eager to get off the couch and start living again. How that will play out in other corporate earnings remains to be seen. Economists have been expecting consumers to shift more of their spending dollars from goods, like home furnishings and cars, to services that include travel and dining out as Covid restrictions are lifted. But with inflation taking a bigger bite out of paychecks, there’s less real discretionary income for purchases beyond the necessities. “It’s clear that the cost of living crisis will be forcing many Americans to reconsider their spending decisions,” said Craig

Erlam, senior market analyst at Oanda. “While there may still be some excess savings, it’s only natural that households are seeing costs rising and considering where they can cut back.”

Pricing power So far, companies have had a fair bit of success passing along higher costs for materials and labor. Supply shortages combined with a snapback in demand have broadly pushed up prices across the economy, while trillions in government financial relief and low borrowing costs have played a role in keeping that demand elevated for longer. But companies also have to be cognizant of the impact of their price hikes on their sales. Executives at Procter & Gamble Co. said late Wednesday they’re “thoughtfully executing tailored price increases” and have their eyes “wide open” for any change in consumer behavior. For retailers operating brick-and-mortar stores, it takes time to raise prices, and they have to be thoughtful about their strategy in doing so, said Kristen Gall, president of Rakuten Rewards, a shopping platform that offers consumers deals and rewards from retailers. That might not play out in the first quarter, but come later this year, consumers could especially feel the squeeze, she said. “I think retailers still do have the power to raise prices and still be okay,” Gall said. “The question is, do any of them overshoot and raise prices by too much and it actually turns customers away from their brand.” It’s a difficult balance to strike, and while consumers are so far hanging tough in the face of decades-high inflation, they’re still sensitive to prices. Data last week from retail sales and consumer sentiment offered some comfort that Americans aren’t ready to pull back on spending en masse just yet. But as seen with Netflix’s price increase of just a dollar or so, it doesn’t take much to tip someone over the edge. “It completely changes the landscape as soon as your start touching price,” said Liza Amlani, principal and founder of the Retail Strategy Group. “People are not going to pay for something they don’t see the value in.”

For a decade, rock bottom mortgage rates helped home buyers steadily bid up the cost of housing. That includes the last few years, during the pandemic, when rates fell to unheard-of levels and home prices exploded across Southern California and the nation. Now, things are changing. Mortgage interest rates are rising fast, hitting 5.11% this week for the first time since 2010, according to a widely watched gauge from Freddie Mac. Just six weeks ago, average rates for a 30-year fixed mortgage were under 4%. In November, they were below 3%. The swift rise, on top of soaring prices, has made homeownership suddenly more expensive. So, if people can afford less, are home prices about to fall? Several top real estate experts said they don’t foresee price declines – at least meaningful ones – absent a recession. Prices are most likely going to continue to climb, but in smaller increments than Southern California’s current 17% annual rate. Economists and other experts pointed to several factors that should largely uphold home values: a severe shortage of homes for sale, rising incomes, falling unemployment and – in plain language – a tendency for homeowners to be greedy. “A lot of times people go, ‘Well, if I can’t get the price my neighbor got, I am not going to sell,’” said Bill McBride, author of the financial blog Calculated Risk who famously called the housing crash two decades ago. In the past, sharp rises in mortgage rates have slowed home price growth, and experts said higher rates should have the same effect this time around as well. The simple reason is people can afford less, and this is starting to show. Industry professionals report fewer people at open houses, fewer multiple offers per home and fewer mortgage applications. “It’s cooled quite significantly,” said John who Underwood, manages a team of Redfin agents in the San Fernando, San Gabriel and Conejo valleys. While it’s still solidly a sellers’ market, Underwood said houses that just a few months ago might have gotten 15 or 20 offers now get five or six. It’s become harder for sellers to make special demands, including that prospective buyers waive loan and appraisal contingencies that let buyers back out if a problem arises. Agent Randy Conrad, who works throughout L.A. County, said he’s seen a few deals fall out of escrow because buyers didn’t lock their rates and could no longer afford the home when borrowing costs jumped. Cooling demand hasn’t yet translated into a slowdown in what homes are selling for, according to the latest available data. The median home price across the sixcounty Southern California region rose 16.7% in March from a year earlier, to $735,000, according to data published Wednesday by the research firm DQNews. That’s slightly faster than the 15.4% yearover-year gain posted in February. In Orange

Rising mortgage interest rates should slow price growth. County, the March median price soared 22% and topped $1 million, the first time the median price in any Southern California county has crossed the million-dollar mark. The March data reflect closed sales; many of those buyers opened escrow in February, when rates were rising but were still more than a percentage point below rates today. A more up-to-date view on the direction of the market can come from looking at price cuts. Michael Simonsen, founder of Altos Research, said that the number of sellers trimming their asking prices is still way less than normal. But price cuts are becoming more common at a time of the year when they usually decline or don’t rise much at all. In the city of Los Angeles, 17.5% of listings had a price cut as of April 8, up from 14% on March 11, according to Altos figures. “Last year, when the market was hot, [price cuts] were declining notably week over week,” Simonsen said.

‘Piles of cash’ Price cuts could translate into a decline in actual home values, eventually, if wide swaths of people stop being able to afford today’s prices and sellers adjust their expectations – a possibility that becomes more likely as rates head higher. Take the current Southern California median-priced home, at $735,000. Assuming a buyer puts down 20% to buy a $735,000 house, the monthly mortgage payment – including property tax and insurance – would be $3,450 if the interest rate was 3.22%, the average at the beginning of the year. At last week’s average mortgage rate of 5%, that monthly payment would be $4,045 – an increase of $595 a month, according to a Redfin mortgage calculator. For a $1-million house – a price point that became much more common around the L.A. region during the pandemic – the rate increases add $827 a month. Compared with the below-3% rates in November, that represents an increase of nearly $1,000. Given the long run-up in home values, many homeowners have lots of equity, and they could sell for less than what their neighbor sold for last year and still make gobs of money. But homeowners often have a number in their head – their sales threshold – based off of recent area sales. And if they don’t need to move, they are reluctant to sell for less, agents and experts said. Some might even have

a below-3% mortgage and are reluctant to ditch it to buy another house at a higher rate. The reason home prices declined as much as they did when the early 2000s housing bubble popped was because a wave of forced selling – through foreclosures and short sales – brought down the entire market. This time around, loan underwriting has been far stricter, with less-exotic debt structures, leaving owners less vulnerable to changes in personal or macroeconomic conditions such as job loss or rising rates. That means even in the case of a recession, there would be fewer forced sales and smaller price declines, said Ralph McLaughlin, chief economist with real estate data firm Kukun. In today’s environment, price declines would probably need to follow at least two years of rising inventory and falling sales, according to Logan Mohtashami, lead analyst for the trade publication HousingWire. That’s a long ways off. As the spring home buying season kicks off, more homes are coming on the market, but in March there were still 31% fewer homes for sale across Los Angeles and Orange counties than a year earlier, according to Zillow data. The people who want those homes didn’t disappear once rates hit 5%. Millennials are currently the biggest generation and a large cohort are in their late 20s and early 30s, which is when many people buy their first home. Mohtashami said there has never been more Americans ages 28 to 34, creating a “once in a lifetime event” underpinning home buying demand through 2024. Many Americans – millennials or not – have also seen their wealth grow during the pandemic, a result of a booming stock market, rising home equity, government relief and less money being spent on restaurants and travel. “There is just piles and piles of cash,” said Christopher Thornberg, founding partner with Beacon Economics, who said people can use that stockpile to offset higher borrowing costs through larger down payments. McLaughlin said that if rates stay around 5%, he would expect the rate of price growth to be cut in half in three months. Southern California home prices might fall 1% or 2% on an annual basis if rates rose to 7% or 8%, McLaughlin said. But for prices to fall meaningfully – 4% or more – he said it may take not only 7% rates at a minimum but also an economic downturn and a restrained government

response in which Washington doesn’t step in quickly to help homeowners avoid foreclosures, as it did throughout the pandemic.

Bad news For those looking to buy a home later this year or next, will higher rates automatically mean the monthly mortgage payment will be higher than if rates stayed low? That’s a question without an easy answer. But for those looking now, it’s more expensive. McLaughlin said higher rates will probably be “very, very bad news” for people who barely qualified for a loan, since higher borrowing costs may very well knock them out of the market. For others who have more wiggle room, it could open up more opportunities if inventory rises. “They may be more content in the home that they find even if they have to pay a higher mortgage rate and a higher monthly payment,” McLaughlin said. Keller Williams agent Amber Dolle got a realtime taste of the changing market two weekends ago when she held an open house for a Valencia three-bedroom townhome priced at $680,000. She said attendance was about half what it would’ve been last year, with 35 prospective buyers coming in. The number of offers was also less than Dolle would have expected last year, but there was still six of them and all were over the asking price, showing how even a reduced number of buyers can easily send prices up when there are so few homes for sale. That’s why Mohtashami said he’s rooting for mortgage rates to stay high for a prolonged period to bring more balance to the market. In 2018, mortgage rates neared 5% and home price growth proceeded to slow dramatically. In March 2019, the Southern California median price even dipped 0.4% from a year earlier, the first decline since 2012, according to DQNews. But after that dip, home prices started their upward march once again, helped by mortgage rates that then fell below 4%. “The fear that I have is mortgage rates peak out around here ... and mortgage rates go back down,” Mohtashami said, of the current market. “Higher rates are the only thing that can put home sellers, home builders and home investors on their ass.” “They have way too much pricing power as a collective whole and look what they are doing: They are all pushing it to the limit.”

49ers: Plenty of questions need answers TV: Listings From Page B1 traded amid stalled talks on a reworked deal, but he reached an agreement with the team less than three weeks later. That same offseason, All-Pro tight end George Kittle was reportedly privately seething about the 49ers’ contract-extension offers and considered demanding a trade, but he signed a five-year, $75 million deal on the eve of training camp. Samuel’s case is different in that, unlike Gould and Mostert, his trade demand could inspire teams to provide mega-offers. And his request comes at a time when the 49ers could be particularly motivated to receive draft-pick compensation: They don’t have a first-round pick in next week’s draft and own just two

top-100 selections. Still, their history, and Samuel’s ability, suggests it will be hard for the 49ers to be swayed. Shanahan would be loathe to part with a completepackage player such as Samuel, who is unlikely to be adequately replaced with a draft pick. “I haven’t had anybody like Deebo – ever,” Shanahan said last month. “Someone who is built like him, who is more like a running back just the way he can take hits and the way his body can deliver a blow. And then you go with his speed which allows him to be a receiver. You go to his toughness. His hands. People don’t realize how smart Deebo is, too. I think he’s one of the smartest players I’ve been around. Nothing is too big for him.” If the 49ers’ stubborn-

ness, which has proven successful in the past with trade-me players, works with Samuel, they should lose that quality when it comes to Step 2: Trying to trade Garoppolo, who said Thursday in an interview with SiriusXM NFL Radio that he’s successfully rehabbing from surgery on his throwing shoulder and could be ready to participate in training camp. Shanahan and Lynch have maintained they won’t release Garoppolo and will keep him on the roster this season if a trade partner doesn’t emerge. That could be posturing. If not, however, it wouldn’t be ideal for quarterback Trey Lance, 21, to have Garoppolo looking over his shoulder throughout what’s expected to be his first season as a starter. How would Garoppolo

react to staying with the 49ers in 2022? His answer Thursday suggested he wouldn’t be doing cartwheels. “I don’t know – we’ll see,” Garoppolo said. “It was a strange year. I don’t know if I’d wish that on anybody.” At this point, of course, there’s no harm in holding onto Garoppolo. But the 49ers might be wise to make a break via a release, if necessary, before training-camp awkwardness could begin. That’s still three months away. There’s time to mend fences with Samuel, move on from Garoppolo, address roster holes with nine draft picks and change the course of what’s shaping up to be an awful offseason.

Stroman: Hesitation part of his strategy From Page B2 be mechanically out of whack but so athletic that you can get yourself in a decent enough place to execute pitches,” Hottovy told the Tribune. “And that’s what’s made him so good over his career. He’s got such an insane ability that no matter where he is mechanically, he can go execute pitches.”

There are times, though, the Cubs don’t want Stroman relying solely on his athleticism, instead focusing on the little things within his delivery to get him in a good position consistently. “Then all of a sudden that athleticism picks up even more because now you’re in a good position to throw and you’re explosive,” Hottovy said. “But

it’s just fun to be able to talk to him about how in tune he is with his body.” When Stroman is locked in mechanically, he mixes in a hesitation or hitch in his delivery. He flashed the delivery quirk in bullpen sessions and during an April 3 simulated game in Mesa, Ariz. While Stroman still is working to get to that level of consistency, he expects

the work he has put in to yield those results. “I wouldn’t do that if I wasn’t feeling good,” Stroman said. “I try to focus on my mechanics when I’m not. But when I feel good, all the variations start to come out. (It’s) something I’ll definitely mess with as the season progresses and you’ll definitely see a lot of.”
