Cemetery hosts early Memorial Day ceremony
Ceremonies set Monday in Fairfield, Vacaville, Vallejo Susan Hiland

DIXON — Memorial Day is a time to mourn our dead, according to Bob Hall, a retired major general who was the main speaker Saturday at the Sacramento Valley National Cemetary. The choice to have a remembrance day early allowed family and friends to place flags on 48,350 graves of soldiers and spouses. “Memorial Day isn’t something new,” Hall said. It was called Decoration Day when he was a child. It was called Decoration Day because the day included an annual, community-wide event, during which businesses closed and residents decorated the graves of soldiers with flowers and flags. It started May 5, 1866, after the Civil War. “But a day of remembrance for soldiers was not new even then,” Hall said. “Ceremonies for the dead soldiers can be traced back hundreds of years.” It was not until the 1970s that the name was changed to Memorial Day and celebrated the last Monday in May.

Gov. Newsom tests positive for Covid Tribune Content Agency SACRAMENTO — California Gov. Gavin Newsom tested positive for Covid-19 Saturday morning after exhibiting mild symptoms, according to a statement from his press office. “The governor will continue to work remotely. In accordance with local and state health guidelines, Gov. Newsom will remain in isolation at least through Thursday, June 2 and until he tests negative,” according to Newsom’s office.

VACAVILLE — Fiesta Days is back in full swing with all the things people have loved about the weeklong celebration of the town’s Spanish and western heritage. Fiesta Days has been a staple for the community since 1957. It has happened every year except 1959, when the event was washed out by heavy rain, and then again the past two years because of the Covid-19 pandemic. “Not much has changed,” Phyllis Mitchum, second co-chairwoman and event jailer, said Saturday. “There are extra wash stations and vendors can wear masks if they want.” Mitchum said they were as back

The group typically has fundraisers throughout the year to raise money for the event, but since Covid, they have not had the usual crab feed or other events, Mitchum said. But the jail is one way to raise money with participants “arrested” and held for “bail” for about 10 or 15 minutes. The money raised is going directly back into the Fiesta Days event. Saturday had a Country and Western theme with bands Smokin Jokers, Locked-N-Loaded and California Cowboys playing tunes. “We arrest the band members all day long and they get bailed out,” Mitchum said. The event had a few new food vendors, including California Gold See Fiesta, Page A10
Shifting stories on Uvalde attack trouble officials The Washington Post UVALDE, Texas — Grieving parents and loved ones began making plans to bury the dead, while demands for accountability increased Saturday after officials acknowledged law enforcement officers improperly waited an excruciatingly long time before rushing the classroom where a gunman murdered 19 children and two teachers. Rogelio M. Muñoz, a former city council member who left the council due to term limits, said in an interview on Saturday morning that
what the community had learned so far about the police response is “very concerning.” Texas authorities made clear on Friday that many things went wrong earlier in the week. Muñoz criticized the Texas Department of Public Safety for its shifting accounts of what occurred at the school on Tuesday, but he cautioned against making too many conclusions. “The facts are still developing and it’s hard to assess blame or judgment on anybody when we don’t know all the facts,” he said. State Sen. Roland Guti-
errez, a Democrat who represents Uvalde, said, “We’re all angry. Law enforcement’s angry,” during an interview with CNN on Saturday

Students ride horses to school, and Montana ‘law’ means principal has to care for them Tribune Content Agency Because of a senior prank at a Montana high school, a principal had to tend to 12 horses for the day on Monday. But why? It’s the law, says the Conrad Public Schools district in northern Montana. The district shared a picture on Facebook showing the 12 students on horseback outside Conrad High School. Those horses – at least for the day – were under the responsibility of school principal Raymond DeBruycker. “Montana has an old law saying if a student rides their horse to school, the school principal has to feed and tend to the horse throughout the day,” the school district said. “It looks like Mr. DeBruycker has his work cut out for him today.” McClatchy News could not find any record of this so-called “law,” but other students in the state have pulled similar pranks. Two students rode horseback to Three Forks High School last year, and the school district said it was “following the law.” In 2016, a group of seniors in Conrad had a similar idea to this year’s group. “It’s still on the Montana law that if a student rides a horse to school the principal has to feed, water, and walk your horse,” former Pondera County Sheriff Carl Suta said, 96.3 The

Hundreds of high school students Suisun’s City finishing Biomonitoring Program Council to decide
how to move forward on mayor
Daily Republic Staff
DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET
FAIRFIELD — Nearly 600 Solano County high school students, by the end of the school year, will have participated in the Solano County Biomonitoring Program. “Students have learned about their local watershed, observed the hands-on methods used to monitor the creeks in their neighborhoods, and joined in the assessment of the health of these creeks,” according to a statement released by the Solano Resource Conservation District. The Solano County Biomonitoring Program teaches students how to evaluate watershed health through physical, chemical and biological assessments, according to the statement. Students learn the relationship between stream ecology and water quality; the extent of local water quality issues and ways to improve surface water quality; and the value of community science. “For over a decade, high school students from the county have participated in this community science project and provided valuable data for scientific study,” the district statement said. This year’s program delivered lessons and field trips virtually due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Students take part in the Solano County Biomonitoring Program in 2017. The program aims to inspire students to explore career paths in the sciences like a former Will C. Wood High School student who is now studying environmental science. “Because of the experience she had sampling along the creek with the Biomonitoring Program, she decided to choose aquatic biology as her emphasis,” Kevin English, a science teacher at Will C.

Rita L. Perkins
Rita Perkins passed away peacefully in Fairfield, California on May 5, 2022. She was 81 years old. Rita was born in Marion, Kansas, on Nov. 7, 1940, to George and Vera Miser. She was raised in Marion, Emporia and Cottonwood Falls, Kansas. She graduated from Chase County Community High School in Cottonwood Falls in 1958. Rita attended Kansas State Teachers College and graduated in 1961. Rita married Kenneth Perkins on Sept. 5, 1960, in Emporia, Kansas. Upon graduating college, they relocated to Santa Ana, California, and began her career as a teacher in Buena Park, California, in 1965. They moved to Fairfield, raised two children and she taught at the Fairfield Adult School, Armijo High School and Sullivan Middle School. She retired from teaching in 1995. Upon retirement, she picked up several hobbies. She was always staying busy. She loved to sew, knit, needlepoint, paint, make jewelry, travel and read. They had a family home at the Tahoe-Donner Golf Course in Truckee. They enjoyed a lot of great times here with family and friends. Rita always had a love of art. It was a dream of hers to someday take painting lessons and learn what she could upon retirement. She was determined to find an art teacher. After 10 years of lessons and struggles,
she found a wonderful outlet for her creative side. She took many workshops and lessons from artists in the Bay Area and from the North Lake Tahoe art center. Her favorite subjects were flowers and landscapes, working with oils, watercolors and some acrylics. Her only regret was that she waited too long to start her life as an artist.

SUISUN CITY — The City Council is set to determine Tuesday who will take over city leadership now that former Mayor Lori Wilson now in the state Assembly. The four remaining council members are scheduled to decide between one of three options: n Adopt Resolution No. 2022 and appoint a council member to the vacant mayoral seat for the remainder of the current term. n Direct staff to return to council with the appropriate resolution(s) to hold an election Nov. 8 to satisfy the requirements of the general election and a special election in accordance with the Elections Code and the Government Code.

The county argues the tunnel will destroy the ecosystem. The economies of the Delta communities are also believed to be at risk, the county officials said. The topic is gaining renewed attention because of the ongoing drought, a topic Supervisor Jim Spering used to do a little politicking. He said it was time for voters to stop electing the same people who support these kinds of projects, suggesting they are nothing but puppets for a party – the Democrats without saying the name – that tells them how to vote on these matters. It wasn’t clear if he was talking about local state representatives, who Spering has largely supported, or just the governor and other elected officials. “These big issues are pretty political and they (party members) are told how to vote on

FAIRFIELD — The second Solano Water Institute for Teachers is set Aug. 3-5 and will include visits to county parks and open spaces and a boat tour of Lake Berryessa. The Water Institute is designed to provide K-12 educators with the knowledge, skills and tools to effectively teach watershed science and land preservation from a locally relevant perspective, the Solano Resource Conservation District said in a statement. The district hosts the three-day workshop. Participants receive a $200 stipend, and teachers can claim 21 hours of continuing education credit. “This program was a huge success last year. The place-based learning experiences have been carefully crafted to help educators teach environmental science by connecting students to the environment they live in, developing a sense of ownership and care for local natural resources, and encouraging youth to explore parks and open spaces in the county,” Shea Kinser, education program manager for the district, said in

FAIRFIELD — Solano County supervisors this week made it clear they do not support any Delta tunnel project whether it is two tunnels as was proposed by the Jerry Brown administration or a single tunnel as proposed by Gov. Gavin Newsom. The board on Tuesday adopted a resolution reaffirming Solano’s support for the Delta Counties Coalition. Supervisor Mitch Mashburn, who represents Solano on the coalition, equated the 40-plus mile Delta conveyance tunnel to a straw that is being built to suck 6,000 cubic feet of water, per second, from two intake points above the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta to a release point below the estuary. “We don’t need a straw; we need a bigger cup,” said Mashburn, arguing the state needs to invest in more surface storage reservoirs like the Sites project in eastern Colusa County. Water from the Sacramento River would be pumped up to the foothills location. The Delta project is estimated at more than $16 billion and will take about 14 years to complete. The 1-mile intake points are at Hood and Courtland, each drawing 3,000 cubic feet of water, per second, into the tunnel that would be 40 feet in diameter and be placed 150 feet beneath the ground. It would run under the Delta to its exit point, the county staff report states. One of the biggest concerns the county has had is the fresh water being

the statement. The first day is at Rush Ranch where participants will learn about the Suisun Marsh and related environmental matters. Day 2 includes the Berryessa tour with information provided by representatives from Solano County Water Agency, the state Department of Water Resources, the city of Benicia, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and the state Water Education Foundation. The final day focuses on hands-on training using the award-winning Project WET curriculum at Fairfield’s Dunnell Nature Park and Education Center. The Project WET curriculum aligns with the state-mandated Next Generation Science Standards and the Environmental Education Principles and Concepts outlined by the California Environmental Education Initiative, according to the statement. It provides a teaching tool for both classroom teachers and informal educators. Registration is available at solanorcd.org under Educator Workshop. Space is limited, so early registration is encouraged. A waiting list will form in the order of submitted registration.
these . . . and are not being held accountable,” Spering said. Spering also said something needs to be done about the flow of immigrants into the country because of the extra demand they create on water use. Supervisor Erin Hannigan countered that she does not think immigration is an issue on this topic. She also channeled his father, former Assemblyman Tom Hannigan, and the lesson he gave her when she was first getting into politics. “You think you are going to solve water problems,” Hannigan said of her father’s words to her. “You are never going to solve this.”
But that dilemma is a rallying cry for the Delta counties to be vigilant. Mashburn updated the board on a recent tour of the Delta the coalition held for north state legislators or staff members to show them a big picture of the issue. He said the coalition is putting together a “road show” to take its message to various communities and plans a summit June 24 in Sacramento. Mashburn said Solano County has a key role since it is part of two geographic worlds involved in the dispute. “We are part of the Bay (Area) and the Delta,” Mashburn said. “We are the bridge between the two.”

CALMATTERS COMMENTARY
Water rights on state’s agenda as long drought continues
A
s a third year of drought continues, California officialdom is increasing pressure for more water conservation. Last week, the state Water Resources Control Board imposed a statewide ban on watering of “non-functional” turf, such as grass around commercial buildings, and directed local water agencies to implement water use restrictions. “California is facing a drought crisis and every local water agency and Californian needs to step up on conservation efforts,” Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a supportive statement. Despite the official ballyhoo, last week’s actions were Dan Walters tepid at best, stopping well short of the mandatory reductions Newsom’s predecessor, Jerry Brown, imposed during a previous drought. It appears Newsom, running for re-election, does not want to be the guy who tells Californians they can’t water their lawns as much as they would like. He’d rather leave it to local water officials to crack down. However, no matter how they are framed, the new directives are highly unlikely to have more than a marginal impact on California’s increasingly dire water shortage for the simple reason that residential use is a relatively tiny factor in the water equation. California’s largest-in-the-nation agricultural industry is by far the largest user of developed and managed water supplies. The larger question is whether the state is doing anything to confront the longer-term gap between water supply and water demand as climate change alters precipitation patterns. Conservation will help, particularly more efficient use of agricultural water, but we need more storage, such as the long-delayed Sites Reservoir, to take advantage of wet years. Newsom’s latest budget proposal claims to make big investments in improving water security, but most of the money would go to small-scale projects that tinker on the margins. It proposes just a half-billion additional dollars for water storage while dumping several billion more dollars into the state’s ill-conceived and ill-managed bullet train project. If we’re serious about dealing with semipermanent drought conditions, the most important – and the most controversial – step would be to reconsider how limited supplies are allocated among agriculture, urban users and flows needed to support endangered species such as salmon. By necessity, such a comprehensive approach – more or less starting with a clean sheet of paper – would require a fresh look at the state’s bewilderingly complex water rights. Those who hold such rights consider them to be sacrosanct. But drought is so severe that even senior rights holders are feeling the pinch, as CalMatters writer Rachel Becker details in a recent article on the drought’s impacts in the Sacramento Valley. Reconsideration of water rights seems to be gaining momentum in water policy circles. A water policy paper issued by the state Senate leadership this month proposes the state purchase rights from agricultural holders to provide more water for habitat improvement as part of a $7.5 billion plan “to build a climate-resilient water system.” As the state water board was pushing for more conservation last week, a coalition of Indian tribes and environmental groups demanded it become more aggressive about enforcing water quality standards in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta “and restructure water rights as necessary to implement these standards.” The demand cites the history of white settlers appropriating water supplies from native peoples in the 19th century and suggests water rights can be reconfigured under the state Constitution’s provision that only “reasonable use” of water is legal. The water board had been considering such direct action, but put it on hold while the Newsom administration has attempted to forge so-called “voluntary agreements” that would divert more water from agriculture to enhance river flows.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Elect Jennifer Barton 3rd District supervisor I have strong feelings about the candidates running for Supervisor in the 3rd District. This is the role that Supervisor Jim Spering is retiring from. I respect Jim, having served with him in Little League many years ago. With his decision not to seek re-election, we have the rare opportunity to elect a candidate, Jennifer Barton, who is highly experienced and will work tirelessly for our interests. If you haven’t heard about her qualifications, she has worked at the state and federal levels of government for many years. She has the contacts to effect change in our county. Have we become numb to the needs of our county? Homelessness, traffic and poverty. These seem to be items we have come to accept in our community. I believe we can do better. I also believe Jennifer is the woman for the job. How do I know? I have known Jennifer for over 20 years and I have worked with Jennifer as a Soroptimist. She is honest, hardworking and the type of person we want working for us. When I say this, I mean she is not your typical “politician” who tells you what you want to hear. She is a worker. She will endeavor to improve the complicated homeless issue that plagues our county. She will work with state and federal contacts to improve the frustrating traffic jams we deal with daily. And she will work to improve all the lives of Solano County’s residents – rich and poor. I have nothing bad to say concerning the other candidates. This position should not be handed over to a name, or an “unstated incumbent.” We have to ask our-
selves, “What have you done to deserve this position?” It hurts my feelings when people talk badly about Fairfield. As a fourth-generation woman of Solano County, Suisun Valley and Fairfield, I love this area. But when I drive through Fairfield, it breaks my heart and I understand: We can do better; we must do better. I have 100% faith that electing Jennifer Barton is a great beginning to that change. Please join me in voting for, and electing, Jennifer Barton. Joan Hopkins Towner Fairfield
A new sheriff in town? I hope not. People love using the phrase, “There is a new sheriff in town.” The truth is it really only works in the movies, not reality. Why would we want a new sheriff when our current sheriff Tom Ferrara, is the only sheriff in the history of Solano County to successfully navigate a worldwide pandemic? His leadership and partnership with federal, state and county officials during these difficult years were the foundation for the safe implementation and management of programs that saved lives. Why would we want a new sheriff when our current sheriff, Tom Ferrara, is the only sheriff in Solano County history to have protected our county from the unprecedented civil unrest that left other counties with property damage in the millions and residents feeling unsafe and unprotected? Why would we want a new sheriff when our current sheriff, Tom Ferrara, managed his department’s response to the LNU Lightning Complex Fire and the Atlas Fire,
two of the largest fires in Solano County history? Your choice is to choose someone who has done the work or someone who has retired from the work. Vote Sheriff Tom Ferrara.

I stand with Krishna Abrams I am submitting this letter in support of Krishna Abrams for district attorney. I am employed as a victim advocate with the District Attorney’s Victim Witness Program. I have worked with Ms. Abrams for over 20 years. Abrams has prosecuted some of the most serious cases in Solano County. I have had the opportunity to work closely with her as I provided support services for victims and their families in many of these cases. Abrams is a stellar prosecutor who works so hard to hold offenders accountable. I have witnessed so many victims and their families express gratitude for her support, compassion and hard work. Abrams stands for victims' rights and does everything in her power to ensure that victims' voices are being heard. I am forever grateful for all she has done and continues to do on behalf of victims in our county. Please join me in voting for Krishna Abrams for district attorney. Susanne Perthes Vacaville
SOLANO VOICES
Abrams invaluable for victims in county Jeff Lelea
I
have been the Victim Witness Program coordinator for Solano County for the past six years. It is my job to run the unit in the District Attorney’s Office that deals directly with victims affected by crime. There is no person in this county who has a more intimate look at how Krishna Abrams interacts and feels about the victims of this county. The first thing you need to understand about victims is that nobody becomes a victim willingly. Every person we see in the Victim Witness Unit is suffering from some degree of loss and grief. Victims are thrust into the criminal justice system with little knowledge about how the process works, and with little more knowledge than what we see on TV. As an advocate, our job is multifaceted. Primarily, our job is to provide services that help people cope with the trauma they have experienced. Second, the job is to help guide people through a scary and often re-traumatizing process. Much of that guidance is spent helping people understand the process as well as managing expectations. The overall goal of an advocate is to give a voice to those who have been victimized. It is a big job and not for the faint of heart. When I came into the DA’s office in 2015, there were four full-time
advocates employed with the District Attorney’s Office. Krishna had just been elected as the new district attorney and had run on the platform of improving services to victims and giving them a voice. In 2015, the Victim Witness Unit served about 500 clients. In 2016, Krishna re-established the coordinator position that was lost to budget cuts in 2009. Her goal was to grow the unit to better serve this community. Today, just seven years later, Krishna has grown the Victim Witness Unit to a program coordinator, nine full-time advocates plus two dedicated administrative assistants. We employ similar numbers of advocates to counties double our size. This year we are on track to serve between 3,700 to 4,000 new clients. As the Victim Witness program coordinator, I am constantly working with Krishna on how to improve services as well as potentially grow the unit. Anybody who sits down with Krishna will see the heart and passion she has for victims of her community. The other astounding thing about Krishna is her availability and opendoor policy. In my six years as the Victim Witness program coordinator, I have never known Krishna to deny a meeting with someone who requested it. I am pretty sure it is rare to have the highest-ranking prosecutor in
a county meet with any and all who request a meeting, yet Krishna meets with every person. Let us acknowledge that people who request such meetings are rarely happy and often angry at how they are being treated by the system. It is a system that is in constant flux and recent changes in California laws have been prioritizing the rights of defendants over that of their victims. Krishna takes the time to listen and empathize with people’s pain as well as explain in detail how the process works. If she finds a stone that is left unturned, she will turn it over. She is a true servant of the community as well as a fierce leader for justice. I cannot think of one person who has left those meetings without a better understanding of the process and their situation. More importantly, nobody I have ever known who attended those meetings has left feeling unheard. There is not one other person who I have met who has more passion and more commitment to victims than Krishna Abrams. That is why I endorse and support Krishna for district attorney of Solano County. Jeff Lelea is the Solano County Victim Witness program coordinator at the District Attorney's Office in Fairfield.

The shooting at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas, has ramped up the debate around gun violence to its usual partisan levels, setting Democrats and Republicans on familiar sides of the gun legislation divide. Yet what if the solution isn’t legislative but technological – by making sure the person had the right to fire that gun? It wouldn’t have prevented Uvalde, where the 18-year-old shooter bought firearms legally. It could, however, stop a school shooting where an underage person illegally gained access to a weapon or slow the huge wave of suicides that constitute the majority of gun deaths in America – 24,292 in 2020, vs. 19,384 murders, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention – by limiting teens and others’ access to guns they don’t own. So argue a group of entrepreneurs who say that the tech has finally advanced far enough – and that the threat has reached sufficiently high levels - to make smart-gun tech a no-brainer. “We feel the time is right for smart guns. There’s a market for it, and there’s a great need for it,” said Gareth Glaser, co-founder of LodeStar Works, a Pennsylvania-based gun manufacturer that uses fingerprints or a phone app to grant access to a 9-millimeter handgun it has been developing. Many high-profile mass shootings involve legally owned firearms. But scores of other people have died at the hands of someone who did not have the right to fire the weapon. The shooter in the Oxford High School shooting in Michigan last November was 15 and using a gun bought by his father.
Unintentional shootings by children resulted in more than 100 deaths in both 2020 and 2021. Smart-gun technology, also known as “personalized guns,” could also prevent fatalities in the case of stolen guns in prison and other settings, advocates say. And teen suicide often involves a gun belonging to an adult that has been found by an underage person in the home. But it is unclear whether the smart-gun efforts can get past gun groups, which in the past have been ambivalent at the least. And the technology is not yet proven – smart-gun proponents have historically offered more promises than proofs. Smart-gun technology uses biometric data such as fingerprints and radio-frequency identification (RFID) transmitted by ring or wristband – to unlock a gun for its legal owner. After years of engineering delays and political resistance, smart guns now appear at least to be nearing the market. LodeStar, under the radar until this year, expects to have a product on the market sometime next year, probably early in the year, Glaser said. The Colorado company Biofire has also been generating headlines recently, announcing earlier this month that it has raised $17 million in seed funding from unidentified investors who it said had backed Google and Airbnb. Its flagship product is also a 9mm fingerprintenabled handgun. And a Kansas company, SmartGunz, has been developing a similar product that runs on RFID. The company was co-founded by Tom Holland, a Democratic state senator, and began offering presales to law See Guns, Page A9
Sanctions against Russia risk exacerbating global famine Tribune Content Agency A new report from a leading political consultancy says increasing sanctions against wheatrich Russia for its unprovoked invasion of Ukraine could trigger a “hunger hurricane” in North Africa, the Middle East and other famine-affected regions of the world. The report raises difficult questions about war, sanctions and the consequences – intended or not – for global human welfare. Academics and think-tank researchers diverge on how to solve the emerging war-famine conundrum. Many geopolitical experts in the United States argue severe economic sanctions are required to cripple Russia’s war efforts. But rather than punishing Russia with protectionist trade restrictions, this new report concludes, the U.S. and other leading nations should increase global agricultural trading to prevent destabilizing levels of food insecurity. Such food insecurity could likely morph into mass migration and resourcedriven social unrest. “Nearly three months into the war, there seems to be little doubt as to whether there will be a global food crisis,” says
the report. The white paper from the Eurasia Group, a New York City-based political risk consultancy, and Twin Cities-based DevryBV Sustainable Strategies, was made public on Monday and funded by Bayer, a German maker of pharmaceuticals and agriculture products. On Tuesday, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen told the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, that nations are mobilizing their “full economic power” to drain Russia’s economy. Peter Ceretti, an analyst with Eurasia, calls such embargoes “draconian” and argues instead to keep food trade open, noting countries such as Yemen and Syria receive nearly half of Ukraine’s annual wheat exports. In Somalia, another nation dependent on wheat from Europe’s breadbasket, the report notes that 40% of the East African nation’s population has severe food insecurity, double the rate from January. Earlier this month, Congress sent a $40 billion Ukraine aid package to President Joe Biden’s desk. Among billions for military support, the bill included a carveout for $5 billion in global food aid. U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar said she spoke to Biden about this topic firsthand
last month. “As someone who has experienced displacement and hunger firsthand,” Omar said in a statement to the Star Tribune, “I have been deeply concerned about the global hunger as a result of the Russian invasion and have been particularly concerned about making sure sanctions do not inadvertently contribute to this crisis.” Analysts with Eurasia say the problem is not only that crops are unable to reach markets. Restrictions on inputs, such as fuel or seeds, can also drive up price volatility. “The biggest, best response from a global standpoint would be to keep food trade free and open and flowing and make sure that U.S. sanction policies are really carved out,” Ceretti said in an interview on Tuesday. Much has been made about an economic blockage by Western nations and companies against Russia, for its incursion into Ukraine. The tagteaming, many pundits argue, has isolated the Russian economy more severely than the country’s senior leadership anticipated. And some add it should continue. Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, with the Yale School of Management, argues that many global food companies have mis-
taken the “wrong noble preventobjective,” ing food scarcity, with another goal – avoiding a potentially catastrophic World War III. “Wheat is fueling Putin’s war machine,” said Sonnenfeld, in an interview on Wednesday. “I say, regretfully, shame on the ag businesses for not pulling out dramatically.” Food economists are increasingly raising alarm
that the war in Ukraine may well set off hunger beyond what the world has seen in recent years. More than 808 million bushels of wheat sit in silos in Ukraine. Unexploded Russian munitions rest in farmers’ fields, and the Russian navy blocks essential Black Sea ports.

try as expected. Last week, a Russian envoy blamed food shortages on “Western counterparts.” At home in the U.S., the world’s largest agricultural multinationals have toed a careful line in Ukraine. Minnesota-based Cargill, which chartered a ship hit by a projectile in the Black Sea in late February, has said it will “continue to operate our essential food and feed facilities in Russia.”

Guns From Page A8 enforcement last year. It will ship in July, Holland said, with consumer sales happening probably in August or September. “Our mission is to save lives. I can’t tell you how many times I pick up the paper where I live in northeast Kansas and see a little kid shooting himself or anther child because an adult left a loaded handgun,” Holland said. He said that he “totally supports Second Amendment rights” and that this is “just an option – we don’t intend it for everybody.” Firearms are becoming a bigger cause of death for young Americans. In the past 20 years, the number of firearms-related deaths for people under 25 has gone from 7 for every 100,000 people to 10, according to research from the CDC and the New England Journal of Medicine. In 2017, firearms became the leading cause of injury-related death for

engineering challenge - how to make unlocking as seamless as possible to its authorized user but as difficult as possible for everyone else. To prevent killings on a meaningful scale, smart guns would also need to reach high levels of market penetration. And costs remain high – the SmartGunz product, for instance, is listed between $1,800 and $2,000. A Morning Consult poll in March nonetheless found that 43% of adults would be interested in using a smart gun, a number just below the 46% who said they wanted to use a traditional firearm. The tallest hurdle may be political. More than 20 years ago, gun-manufacturing giant Smith & Wesson said it agreed with a list of government regulations laid out by the Clinton administration, including the pursuit of smart-gun tech. But it soon faced an National Rifle Association-led boycott that sent sales plummeting and nearly destroyed the company. An Obama administration
young people, surpassing even motor vehicle accidents. “The statistics are shocking,” said Kai Kloepfer, founder of Biofire. A teenager at the time of the mass shooting at an Aurora, Colo., movie theater a decade ago, Kloepfer dropped out of MIT several years ago to focus full time on the company. “And we don’t believe this has to be the case.” The argument is that personally identifying technology is already accepted by most people for far less violent tools, from a thumbprint to unlock a phone to an RFID system for a keyless car start. Glaser said he believes LodeStar could prevent “a majority of school shootings, since they are most often committed by underage teenagers with a gun found in the home.” But smart-gun tech is still unproven in real-world circumstances. A gun’s heat and pressure can complicate biometric readings, and signals sent to a separate PIN-based app or ring are susceptible to potential interference and hacking. At its heart is a slippery

push in 2016 for smart guns among federal law enforcement did not yield much fruit. The plan Joe Biden put forth on his campaign platform was to “put America on the path to ensuring that 100% of firearms sold in America are smart guns,” noting that “right now the NRA and gun manufacturers are bullying firearms dealers who try to sell these guns.” A New Jersey smart-gun law passed in 2002 – it mandated gun retailers in the state carry only smart guns beginning three years after they first became commercially available – also faced intense pressure from the NRA. In 2019, the law was revised to simply require that gun retailers carry at least one such approved smart gun 60 days after it is put on the market. The state continues to help lead the push on smart-gun adoption. Last year Gov. Phil Murphy, D, named seven experts from various disciplines to the new Personalized Handgun Authorization Commission to explore the issue.

Glaser and Kloepfer say that while they are open to government-enhanced incentives for buying a smart gun (similar to electric vehicles), they do not support mandates. They both say they hope to remain politically neutral on the question of gun laws. The growth of smart guns, they say, should happen organically. “We want people to buy smart guns because it’s a better firearm,” Kloepfer said. The NRA has indicated it could be open to the idea if mandates were not involved. “The NRA doesn’t oppose the development of ‘smart’ guns, nor the ability of Americans to voluntarily acquire them,” the group’s lobbying arm previously said in a statement. “However, NRA opposes any law prohibiting Americans from acquiring or possessing firearms that don’t possess ‘smart’ gun technology.” An NRA spokeswoman did not reply to a request for comment for this report.

event at Sacramento Valley National Cemetery in Dixon, Saturday.
Day From Page One Romo, welcomed guests for this patriotic event after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic. “This is a day to pay homage to those who chose service to protect our country,” Pickard said. The ceremony was much the same as years prior with a presentation of the colors, the national anthem, playing of taps and a rifle salute. “It is a privilege to pay tribute to our nation’s heroes,” Pickard said. “We are honored to have such a supportive community, one that shows patriotism and gratitude for the brave men and women who lost their lives defending America.” The Service Veterans of Northern California fired a rifle volley and played taps. The music was provided by the U.S. Air Force Band of the Golden West from Travis Air Force Base. The mayor of Dixon, Steve Bird, remembered his father, Otis Bird, who was too young when World War II broke out but years later proudly served his nation in the U.S. Air Force. “He was not a hero in the traditional sense of the word,” Bird said. “But he did his duty and served well.” Several events are scheduled Monday in observance of Memorial Day.

Solano commission California’s drought has caused entire set to consider plan towns to sink nearly a foot in just one year to limit certain CEQA reviews Tribune Content Agency
Zoning administrator to review rural Vaca project Daily Republic Staff
DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET
FAIRFIELD — The Solano County Planning Commission will receive a report on proposed changes to the Surface Mining and Reclamation code when it meets at 7 p.m. Thursday. “In general, the proposed amendments contain a variety of changes to be in conformance with state laws that have changed since 1993, required by the state Legislature. Examples include clarifying contents for reclamation plans, added definitions, standards for reclamation, specific exemptions from (the Surface Mining and Reclamation Act of 1975), clarifying the type of financial assurances, requirements and responsibilities for various reviews and inspection, and recordation of Notice of Mining Approvals on the property,” the staff report to the commission states. “In order to streamline application processing, staff recommends a new administrative procedure for minor modifications to reclamation plans. Currently, changes to reclamations plans are subject to the California Environmental Quality Act, public hearings and Planning Commission approval. The proposed ordinance establishes criteria for minor modifications to be
administrative actions by the director of Resource Management. Major modifications remain subject to CEQA and Planning Commission approval. In addition, complaints and enforcement are proposed to be implemented at the director of Resource Management level rather than by Planning Commission,” the staff report states. An agenda for the meeting is available at https://www. solanocounty.com/civicax/ filebank/blobdload.aspx? BlobID=36942. The commission meets in the Board of Supervisors chamber on the first floor of the government center, 675 Texas St., in Fairfield. Earlier in the day, the county zoning administrator is scheduled to consider a permit request for a 5,000-square-foot structure to store vehicles and farming equipment at 7428 Paddon Road, in unincorporated Vacaville. Allan Calder, the county planning manager, sits as the zoning administrator. He is scheduled to meet at 10 a.m. in the Department of Resource Management Conference Room, Suite 5500, on the fifth floor of the government center. The public can access the meeting by calling 1-323-457-3408. The Conference ID is 293118721#.
The ground is sinking in parts of California as the continued drought strains reservoirs, increasing reliance on the state’s already precarious groundwater reserves depleted by years of well-pumping. In just one year, from October 2020 to September 2021, satellite-based estimates showed entire towns in the Central Valley, including in Kings and Tulare counties, sinking by nearly a foot. The maximum loss recorded during that time was 1.1 feet on the northwestern edge of Tulare County. The sinking, known as land subsidence, happens when excessive pumping dries out the water reserves underground and collapses the space where water used to be. Experts say it’s a centuryold problem in California that regulators have tried to slow with sustainability measures. But with the changing climate, they face an uphill battle. “It’s a latent issue that’s been building over a long time, and we’re kind of seeing a lot of fallout from that,” said Andrew Ayres, an environmental resources and economics researcher at the Public Policy Institute of California, a nonpartisan think tank. Land subsidence threatens infrastructure, including roads and canals, he said. Damage from it led to a $3.3 million repair project at the Delta Mendota canal in San Joaquin Valley, which delivers water to 1.2 million acres of farmland and 2 million people in the region. The repair project, the funding for which was announced
in April, is part of a larger effort by the state water department to address deficiencies in California’s water conveyance systems. “As we pump groundwater out of the aquifer, the water exists in these spaces between various layers and pieces of rock,” Ayres said. “If you pump out enough water, those places will get compressed and this leads to a loss in long-term storage.” Even if an aquifer is recharged with rain or by other means, it won’t be able to hold as much water as it used to, Ayres added. As aquifer levels drop, the process of pulling water from them becomes more difficult and costly. “It might be impossible to access any remaining groundwater supplies,” Ayres added. The problem existed long before major infrastructure and sustainability requirements were put in place. The U.S. Geological Survey says that between the 1920s and 1970s, significant land subsidence occurred in about half of the San Joaquin Valley, or about 5,200 square miles, with some areas subsiding by as much as 28 feet. The continued depletion of groundwater reserves, especially in drought years, is worrisome because of groundwater’s critical role as a buffer when there’s little rain or snowpack to replenish the state’s many surface water resources, like reservoirs. “In drought years, (groundwater) can make up to 60% of the state’s water supply,” said Steven Springhorn, a supervising engineering geologist for the water department. That compares with about
40% in non-drought years. When major surface water sources, such as the State Water Project, can’t deliver enough water during drought, local agencies must find alternative sources, like pumping it from the ground or purchasing it. The State Water Project is a massive system of dams and canals (similar to the Central Valley Project). It delivers water to about 27 million people, including farmers and city dwellers. The State Water Project announced it expects to provide just 5% of the water requested by contractors in the coming year. “This year, we don’t have any surface water to provide to our growers,” said Kristin Sicke, general manager of the Yolo County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, which provides irrigation water to farmers in western Yolo County, as well as delivering
water to dozens of smaller municipal and industrial customers. But the groundwater situation is also dire. Sicke said the district is anticipating record-low groundwater levels this year – beyond the historical low point set during the 1976-77 drought, she said. Many wells, not just in western Yolo County but across the state, are reporting similarly grim groundwater levels. As of early May, more than 60% of wells in California that reported data within the past year indicated belownormal levels of water, data shows. “This is a problem, especially for rural communities that tend not to have very deep wells,” said Ayres, of the policy research group. “It’s also a problem for ag users who, you know, maybe drilled a well 15 years ago when groundwater tables were a lot higher than they are today.”

This will be her last performance with the student group because Stout just graduated with her asso-
ciate degree in jazz study, with an emphasis on voice, but she also plays trumpet, piano and guitar. Her focus now is on developing and promoting her own music, which has a definite jazz foundation, but she said she likes to add a little electric funk to the sound as well. Some of that will be on display for the final concert series when she performs July 9 as Brette Alana with The Steve Krohn Band. American River College features two student jazz ensembles.

DAILY REPUBLIC CONTRIBUTOR
VALLEJO — Vallejo is home to one of the oldest and most vibrant Filipino communities in the country. Each year the Vallejo Philippine Cultural Committee, a program under the umbrella of the Filipino Community of Solano County Inc., organizes and plans events for the entire month of June in commemoration of Philippine Independence Day on June 12. The committee has expanded its offerings of activities and events for 2022 from pop-up markets to a skateboard competition in addition to the mainstay event, the annual Pista sa Nayon festival.

Blue also represents meanings of depth, trust, loyalty, sincerity, wisdom, confidence, stability, faith and intelligence, according to “Meaning of The Color Blue – Bourn Creative.” Area residents may now see how local artists interpret blue in their art. Diana Bennett and Jim Poff are the featured artists When asked, “When did you decide to be an artist?” Bennett’s reply was, “It was never a decision as art has always been a part of my life.” This sums up Bennett’s passion for all things related to beauty and design. In addition to her artistic skill, she is also an accomplished inte-

will take place from noon to 6 p.m. June 4 at Suite Treatments, 3729 Sonoma Blvd. The event will feature vendors, food, music, live DJs and Filipino Martial Arts. Admission is free. Justin Calonia, the organizer of the event and owner of Insynapse Entertainment, was born and raised in Vallejo and is excited to be included in this year’s festivities. “June 4th is an event that showcases Filipino excellence through local, small businesses and live performances. Thus the name, Makers and Music,” Calonia said of the day’s event. The committee sought out event organizers who wanted an opportunity to participate in Philippine Cultural Month. Calonia was one of the first to reach out.
“After organizing and hosting events outside of my hometown Vallejo, I yearned for the opportunity to bring back what I’ve learned to the community that raised me,” Calonia said. “Pista Sa Nayon at the Vallejo waterfront is a core memory that lives rent-free in my soul. Not only was it a fun, safe event, but stood as a beacon to all Filipinos in Vallejo that we should be proud of our heritage and honor the generations that paved the way for us.” Calonia also pointed out that Makers and Music grew out of the dream of having a space where small businesses are highlighted and musicians/live performers have a stage to share their love and their passions in front of an audience of supporters. Some of the performers include Celi, Devarock,
The City Bounce (Jaynatz & Party Ardi), DJ Jasonn, Curfu, Island Warriors Martial Arts, and many more. There will also be an outdoor shaded food lounge. Calonia said he hopes to share his love of Vallejo and his Filipino culture with everyone who attends. “I love the Filipino community in Vallejo, To this day, I can say it’s the best decision that my family made,” he said. “When they initially emigrated from the Philippines, they landed on the shores of San Francisco, but they grew weary of the big city life and made their way to what we now call home, Vallejo.” For more information about all Philippine Cultural Month events, visit www.vallejopistasa nayon.com.
rior designer. When asked about her favorite medium, she responded, “It is hard to have a favorite, when there are so many to try. I have painted big oil abstracts since art college and love the freedom of moving the paint.” Oil abstracts, watercolors, acrylics and drawings are all part of Bennett’s portfolio. Having recently moved from Washington state, Bennett joined the visual arts association to connect with local artists and share her work. Her studio on Main Street in Vacaville. Her website is http:// www.dianabennett.net. Poff took up art when he was 50 but was inspired to become an artist by his uncle’s watercolors when he was a young boy. “My art is based on observation and interpretation,” Poff said in the press release. “I enjoy exploring the interac-
tion between observation and the translation of the observed into the record which is my art.” Poff’s philosophy about his work is that good observation is key to understanding the world in which we live. “As I have worked at improving my drawing, the idea that working at becoming a better observer would improve my drawing did not surprise me, but it has been exciting to learn that the exercise of drawing has improved the quality of my observation,” he said in the press release. Although most of his work is in watercolor and colored pencil, he has recently begun to explore pastels. He said he enjoys working with landscapes and still-life scenes and has also explored portraiture and figurative work. “One of the joys of art is that there is always
something to discover about myself and the world – each painting becomes a new exploration.” Poff said. You can learn more about Poff at https://www. fvaa-arts.org/about-2. The show opened Wednesday. Gallery hours are 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. A closing reception will take place from 4 and 6 p.m. June 25 at the gallery, located at 1350 Travis Blvd., Space D-8, inside the Solano Town Center mall, upstairs outside of Macy’s and next to the ATT store.

transport viewers. “This show was largely inspired by the gardens, pools and neon of West Sacramento’s once iconic motels,” Gavin said in the press release. “This vanished roadside culture, the scourge of every city planner past and present, offered travelers a theme part of ersatz domesticity built purposefully to the human scale.” Gavin’s depictions of these now-historic locations are, in effect, his own form of preservation. Through these familiar yet distant scenes of mid-century spaces, Gavin reflects on the past
and invites his viewers to join him on his journey of memory. The exhibition will be open June 8 and continue through July 23. The opening reception will start at 7 p.m. June 11. Admission is free and all ages are welcome. The gallery is located at 521 First St. in Davis. Hours are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday, and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday.

but she had lost that precious thing that can’t be purchased by money: happiness. Our life does not depend on how happy we are, but it depends on how many people are happy through us. Let’s see what the value of a smile is. If you are a teacher or a professor and if you enter the class with a smiling face, you will see the smile on the faces of all the students. If you are a doctor and treat the patient with a smile, his confidence will be doubled. If you are an owner of the factory or business and enter the office with a smile, it will lower the pressure of the workers. A happy person is a healthy person, so be positive and enjoy your life by helping others to be happy. Prophet Muhammad said, “Greeting someone with a smiling face is also charity.” So spread the smile; it won’t cost you anything.

Your husband’s lack of intimacy is hurtful, and it is understandable that you are upset and sad.

Having an affair, he could perform, but after he was married, he went from being a stud to a dud. Dear Annie: My wife and I divorced seven years ago. She received the house in the divorce, but there was a mortgage attached to it that was in my name only.
Our divorce decree stated that she should secure her own mortgage, but she still hasn’t done that yet. Unfortunately, the divorce decree did not specify the amount of time she had to secure that mortgage, and my lawyer says I have little legal recourse as a result. She has been late on the mortgage payment several times in the past few years, and this has damaged my credit rating severely. There are 10 years left on the original loan, and the balance due is $40,000. I have asked her numerous times when she is going to have the mortgage put in her name. She just deflects and says that she is “working on it.” Annie, I’m at my wits’ end and don’t know how else to

Would it be wrong of me to threaten legal action, even though it probably wouldn’t be upheld in a court of law? — Frustrated Nice Guy Dear Frustrated Nice Guy: No, it would not be wrong to threaten legal action.

FOR YOUR HEALTH
by Holiday Mathis
Today’s birthday You’ve done the focused goal-getting. Now, what happens is sheer luck. You’ll fall into work that’s enjoyable, creative and sorely needed – a recipe for lucrative success. The shining light of your year is the evolution of certain relationships. One particularly strong connection leads to fun outings, projects and adventures. Aquarius and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 20, 1, 4 and 16.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You'll get a few things right, not everything. It doesn't matter when you have the wrong answer, though, because you have the right attitude. Besides, you shine best while dealing gracefully with mistakes. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Because you're looking for a particular kind of adventure, you'll see what others miss. For those with the savvy to recognize them, opportunities are all around. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It's a very fortunate day for those who help, share and mentor. What's normal to you will surprise someone else. What surprises you is normal to someone else. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You don't mind looking foolish in the beginning stages of a project. Everyone starts somewhere. You're determined to get good enough to move to the second stage, and that's why you'll quickly gain skill. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You did what, at the time, seemed like your best option. Now you know better. While there's no need to blame yourself for what you didn't understand, if you still feel there's something to forgive here, forgive and start anew. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). What you give to one person will be given back to you by another seemingly unrelated source. Coincidence? Karma? Either way, it's a cycle that keeps up through the week. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A little unexpected sugar will make an impression. You'll have an instinct as to exactly when to throw this sweetness in. A small but well-timed gesture will have everexpanding power. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You do more, but instead, you leave room for others to fill in the blanks. This way, you expend less effort while inviting teamwork, togetherness and, ultimately, bonding. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You behave differently under stress than you do when you're breezing through. To come across as a breath of fresh air, you must first handle what's stressing you and then get back to that peaceful, easy feeling. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Work gives you novel challenges and a chance to employ underused puzzlesolving skills. Your flirting skills are, at times, unfairly effective. Someone is unnerved by your presence. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You won't get results from punishing mistakes. It seems like it would work, but it won't. Instead, reward improvement in yourself and others and all will be focused in a successful direction. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don't feel regret, but you do wonder what might have happened if you had made a different choice. Such reflections are not wasteful. The alternate realities you dream up will inform your next move. CELEBRITY PROFILES: Grammy and Oscar winner Melissa Etheridge is known not only for her powerful singing voice but for her powerful voice in the world. She has stood for gay rights and raised money and awareness for cancer research, environmental causes and more. An adaptable Gemini, Etheridge was born under a fiery Sagittarius moon, with career planet Mars in entertaining Leo. Write Holiday Mathis at HolidayMathis.com.

You don’t need a gym to exercise; a walk around your neighborhood works just as well.
Take steps to thrive as you age A Dr. Michael Mason
SPECIAL TO THE DAILY REPUBLIC
s a physician who specializes in the treatment of the elderly, I often tell my patients, “I want to help you feel as good as you can for as long as you can.” No patient has disagreed with that statement. May is Older Americans Month and a good time to remember that a healthy lifestyle can make a difference. It is never too late to change unhealthy habits and adopt healthier ones. How you feel as you get older depends on a number of factors, including what health problems run in your family and your lifestyle choices. As we age, changes occur from our head to our toes. I like to remind people that soft things get hard and hard things get soft. Your blood vessels are normally very soft and flexible when you are young and get naturally harder as you age, causing changes like high blood pressure. Your bones are harder and stronger when you are younger and can soften as you age, contributing to problems like osteoporosis and fractures. Your metabolism will slow down,
which means your body needs less food energy than before. These and other changes can be slowed down with a healthy lifestyle. The best ways to stay healthy as you age are being mentally, physically and socially active, and to eat more mindfully. Mental activity involves things like playing computer games, board games, card games, crosswords, word find and Sudoku. Taking a class and learning a new skill can help as well. We encourage physical activities such as stretching, walking, yoga and tai-chi, which can help with balance. You don’t need a gym to exercise; a walk around your neighborhood works just as well. Walking for time tends to be more beneficial than walking for distance. For a beginner, try starting with a 10-minute walk twice a day and increase it as you build endurance. Social activity is incredibly important to maintaining relationships and connections with friends and family. People with regular social contact tend to have less depression, less anxiety and fewer memory problems. Getting together with friends and family at least twice a week is a good start. Helpful activities can be things like a
church group, book club, lunch club or walking group. As we say, you are what you eat! There are a lot of fad diets out there. The best evidence on a healthy diet involves eating a Mediterranean-type diet, rich with fresh vegetables and fruits, unsalted/unsugared nuts like pecans, walnuts and almonds, whole grains and lean protein like poultry or fish that is baked, grilled or broiled along with healthy oils like olive oil for cooking. A balanced diet like this includes all the essential proteins, healthy fats, vitamins and minerals most people need. If you eat a healthy diet, you most likely will not need any vitamin supplementation unless your doctor has recommended it. Last, it is important to have great control of chronic medical problems like diabetes or high blood pressure, to stop smoking (helpful at any age) and to visit your doctor for regular health maintenance like vaccinations and screenings that are appropriate for your age. Michael Mason, M.D., is a specialist in geriatric medicine with Kaiser Permanente Napa Solano, a partner of Solano Public Health.

Wood loses battle vs. old friend, Giants fall again Tribune Content Agency CINCINNATI — Alex Wood spent a season here – not a very memorable one, mind you, missing most of it with a back injury – but that wasn’t why he would have had this game circled on his calendar. No, the personal significance for the Giants’ No. 3 starter was realized when the Reds’ No. 5 hitter stepped to the plate in the first inning. That man was Kyle Farmer, his roommate at the University of Georgia. The best man in his wedding. Someone he shares a tattoo with
honoring their former teammate who was paralyzed. Wood and Farmer have taken such parallel paths – even traded here together from the Dodgers in December 2018 – that the plate appearance in the first inning of Saturday’s 3-2 loss was the first time the two best friends had faced each other in 16 combined majorleague seasons. On a day that Wood allowed only four hits over 5 2/3 innings, it was Farmer who came up with the big one. Two Reds had reached when Farmer stepped in for his first-ever at-bat against
Wood in the first inning. With one swing, Farmer earned eternal bragging rights and put the Giants into a 3-0 hole they couldn’t climb out of, launching a 1-2 sinker over the 379-foot sign in left field. The three runs were enough to lock in a series loss against a team that took MLB’s worst record into this three-game set. Wilmer Flores nearly knocked in the tying run with two outs in the ninth, but Joey Bart was thrown out at home plate to end the game. Farmer got the upper hand on his friend, but he didn’t rub it in. He didn’t showboat. He
rounded the bases with his head down, then crossed home plate for the Reds’ third run of the first inning. After Farmer’s home run, Wood retired 15 of the next 16 batters he faced. An infield single that was initially ruled an out before being overturned by replay review gave Cincinnati its only base runner until Joey Votto slapped a two-out single in the sixth that ended Wood’s day. Wood would get his in his next face off with Farmer, prevailing in a nine-pitch battle that ended with Farmer lining out. Good thing, too, because Wood
CITY TOP 10 PREP COACHES
wouldn’t get another chance at Farmer, who was standing in the on-deck circle when Kapler came to take the ball from his starter. The way Wood rebounded from a tough first inning, even coming against one of the league’s worst lineups, should leave the Giants encouraged, even though he came one out shy of completing six innings for the first time this season. Wood had failed to complete four innings in each of his past two starts and was tagged See Giants, Page B7

I
f narrowing the city’s top 10 athletes was hard, figuring out the top coaches – and the list of honorable mentions – is just as tough. You’d think it would be easier just because of fewer numbers – an athlete is at a high school for no more than four years, but a coach can be there for decades – but the list of candidates is impressive and thinning it out is a daunting task. Some coaches were brilliant over brief period and others, while perhaps not as successful, were at their posts for more than 30 years. As mentioned earlier, through the years we’ve kept extensive – but not entirely complete – records at the Daily Republic. I’ve consulted those as well as the Calhighsports.com State Record Book and Almanac, the National Federation of State High Schools Associations and the Sac-Joaquin Section website. Apologies in advance for those who are worthy of being mentioned but through no fault of their own were omitted. All that being said, here’s the top 10:
1. Allison and Jake Johnson, Vanden girls basketball Since the Johnsons, husband and wife, took over as coaches of the Vikings in 2004-05, a bad season has been sharing a league championship. That’s happened twice – in 2006-07 with Vallejo and 2007-08 with Rodriguez – and that’s it. Every other season since 2005, the Vikings have won the outright league title, putting up a
187-7 league record in that span. Think about it: 18 league titles in 18 years. Other coaches have had stretches of dominance, but not a clean sweep. Vanden has won 30 straight league games, 103 of its last 104, 138 of its last 140. The only season they didn’t win 20 or more games was the spring 2021 campaign, which was limited to 12 games because of the pandemic. They went 11-1. All told, the Vikings are 448-93 overall with four Sac-Joaquin Section and one CIF state championship, won in 2017 after a rousing comeback against traditional state power Mater Dei of Santa Ana. While other coaches have won more games, none have been as consistently dominant.
2. Ron Clarke and Ed Houk, Fairfield softball Ron Clarke, with Ed Houk assisting for much of the time, retired as the winningest coach in Sac-Joaquin Section history and second-winningest in state annuls with a 732-256-5 record, amassed from 1978 to 2011. Along the way his teams won four SJS section titles and in one dominant 17-year span from 1993 to 2009 made 16 playoff appearances, won 15 league titles, had 16 20-win seasons, six 30-win seasons and one 40-win season, won three section titles and made eight section finals appearances. Clarke and Houk get the nod over Jim Boyd for No. 2 because of the number of players the two sent on to major colleges, among them Arizona, Arizona State, California Texas, Kentucky, UNLV,
Loyola Marymount, Illinois State, Middle Tennessee State, Oregon Tech and Pacific, among others.
3. Jim Boyd, Vanden boys basketball The official name of Vanden’s indoor sports venue is James L. Boyd Gymnasium, but Jim Boyd Gym just has a better ring to it. he essentially owned the place, right down to the thermostat, as he turned up the heat and visiting teams and fans were greeted with a big “Welcome to the Oven” banner. His teams went 614-257 overall and 324-109 in league play, winning 14 Superior California Athletic League, seven Sac-Joaquin Section and two NorCal titles with one state crown won in 1986. Along the way, they won 20 or more games 18 times, with two 30-win seasons.
4. Buck Bailey, Armijo football, boys basketball In a sense, high school coaching in Fairfield got its start with the arrival of Buck Bailey in 1929. For the three previous years, Principal James E. Brownlee had served as football coach, with moderate success, going 9-5-4. Over the next 11 seasons, Bailey’s teams rolled to a 58-17-10 overall record and 29-9-6 in Solano County Athletic League play, with six SCAL titles, four undefeated seasons and a 1936 Central Section title. His only losing season was his first (3-5 in 1929), followed by 10 straight winning seasons, easily the school’s most domi-
nant period on the gridiron. Bailey’s story doesn’t stop on the football field. In 11 seasons as boys basketball coach, his teams went 112-50 with four league titles and one section title. His 1939-40 team went 21-1 with the only setback a 30-28 loss to Vallejo, a much larger school at the time, with an average margin of victory of 17 points.
5. Stan Lewis, Vanden tennis In 30 seasons with the Vikings, Lewis has compiled a 613-216 record, starting at the coed level before breaking off to the girls in the fall and boys in the spring in 2007-08. His teams have won 14 league titles – two Capital Valley Conference coed in 2005 and 2006 – four girls – two in the SCAC and two in the MEL – eight boys – six in SCAC and two in the MEL – and three team section championships: 2004 and 2005 coed, and 2021-22 girls Division III. Ten of his players have won individual section championships.
6. Mike Dailey, Fairfield cross country and track Dailey led the Falcons boys to three Sac-Joaquin Section and seven MEL titles in track, compiling a 107-21 dual meet record with 32 invitational track crowns. His boys cross country teams won MEL titles in 1992 and ’93 On top of that, he was the Delta League and MEL coach of the year in boys soccer in 1975 and 1976, respectively. See Coaches, Page B8
CLOVIS — The 200meter dash isn’t Mikelia Strong’s best event, but it’s the one in which the Fairfield High senior reached the finals at the CIF State Track and Field Championships at Buchanan High. Strong qualified ninth in Friday’s trials and wound up placing eighth in Saturday’s finals in 24.84 seconds. In the trials, Strong finished third in her heat in 24.67, just off her school-record time of 24.54. Earlier, she wound up 11th in the 400 – two spots away from a spot in the finals – and fifth in her heat in 56.50, close to her personal best of 56.36. The trials were also unkind of the city’s two other entrants, Vanden’s Robert Breed and Brayden Chavez, two key players on the Vikings’ state championship football team in the fall. Breed wound up 16th in the triple jump at 43-8, needing to be in top 12 after preliminaries to reach the finals. Chavez, meanwhile, was ninth in his 400 heat, placing 26th overall in 52.12.

Coaches From Page B6
7. Brian Jones, Fairfield girls basketball Before Vanden, the girls basketball terror in town was Fairfield. Under Jones, the Falcons went 230-92, 111-35 in MEL play, in 11 seasons, winning four league and three SJS titles with six 20-win and two 30-win campaigns.
8. Dave Monk, Fairfield and Armijo cross country and track The greatest distance runner in Fairfield High history and in the city before the arrival of Luis Grijalva, whom he helped coach, Monk enjoyed success when he returned to his alma mater. His teams won one MEL boys and four MEL girls track titles; two Sac-Joaquin Section boys and four SJS girls track titles; and four MEL boys and two MEL girls cross country titles. His 2006 girls track team is one of the best in city history, finishing fifth in the CIF State Championships. Yet Monk’s magic may have been on display best when he moved over to Armijo and helped the purple and gold win one girls and four MEL boys cross country titles.
9. Kevin Ratterman, Vanden baseball There’s some debate over whether Ratterman’s Vikings teams won 221 or 222, games, but they lost only 101 in 11 seasons, during which they won six league and four section titles, being named Cal-Hi Sports Division IV team of the yar in 1995.
10. Peggy Linville, Armijo softball Linville led the Indians to six MEL titles and Sac-Joaquin Section crowns in 1978 and 1980, the former chosen as the Cal-Hi Sports Softball Team of the Year.
HONORABLE MENTION (In alphabetical order) Ryan Adams, Vanden baseball: Became Vanden’s all-time winningest coach this year, leading the Vikings to the MEL title with two late wins over previously unbeaten Rodriguez and taking the team to the SJS Division III title game. Ron Beverly, Vanden football: A distinguished member of Vanden’s first graduating class in 1965, Beverly had a stunningly successful five-year run as football coach of the Vikings, leading them to four playoff appearances, three SCAL titles and the 1985 SJS Class A crown with a 12-0 record. Rocco Cardinale, Fairfield wrestling: The only coach to ever keep Vacaville from winning at least a piece of the MEL title (1994). Eventually coached six state placers, most of any coach in city history. Was also the coach of solid Fairfield JV football teams that helped feed the successful varsity squad. Jason Chatham, Rodriguez baseball: Led Rodriguez to four SCAC championships and the SacJoaquin Section D-III crown in 2012. Mike Clarkston, Rodriguez wrestling: Turned the Mustangs into an early powerhouse, leading them to five straight SCAC titles and a combined five SJS team and individual championships. Clyde Carpino, Fairfield track and field: One of the most popular faculty members in FHS history, Carpino molded the Falcons into a state track power in the early 1980s. Tracy Cordes, Rodriguez softball: Having just completed her 17th season as coach, Cordes has led the Mustangs to four SCAC and two SJS titles. Jay Dahl, Armijo boys basketball, golf: With a 406-299 record over 26 seasons as basketball coach, Dahl led Armijo to six MEL titles and 12 SJS playoff appearances. Greg Davis, Armijo tennis: Before an unexpected coaching change was made in 2015, Davis was the winningest coach in the tennis program’s history and likely the winningest coach – in terms of league championships – in school history. Davis’ boys teams won 12 Monticello Empire League titles, reached the Sac-Joaquin Section semifinals 11 times and the finals in 2002 and 2010. His girls squads won six MEL titles and never missed the postseason. Dan Early, Fairfield girls basketball: Early coached the Falcons for just four-plus seasons, but amassed a stellar 87-37 record and led them to two league crowns and the 2004-05 SJS Division I championship, an unassuming No. 8 seed that made it all the way to the Northern California title game. David Fishleigh, Rodriguez and Fairfield football: In his short three-year tenure with the Mustangs, Fishleigh had three of the
S p dailyrepublic.com/classifieds o rts Online: five winning seasons in school history, winning two SCAC titles and a Sac-Joaquin Section crown the year they finished second. Go figure. With his record of 27-9, he has three times as many wins as any of the other 11 men to coach at Rodriguez. He then went on to Fairfield where he was 9-20 in three seasons, but improved each year with a 5-5 record in his final campaign before being replaced. How disastrous was that decision? The Falcons have gone 2-45 since. Go figure. Bill Fuller, Armijo tennis, football: While largely remembered as Armijo’s football coach – his teams were 32-46-4 in nine seasons, including the 1972 squad which went 8-1his only winning campaign – Fuller coached tennis at the school for many years, leading them to the first two Sac-Joaquin Section team titles in 1982 and ’83. LeVon Haynes, Vanden football: Haynes finished barely over .500 (56-54) with three SCAC titles in his nine seasons at Vanden and never went beyond the second round of the playoffs, but was ahead of the curve – at least for Solano County – in putting the ball in the air. After last season five of the top-10 single season passing totals were compiled by Viking QBs during his brief tenure. Michael Holloway, Vanden boys basketball: In 12 seasons at his alma mater, Holloway has won eight league and two Sac-Joaquin Section titles, compiling a 243-109 record with nine 20-win seasons. Ed Hopkins, Armijo boys basketball, football, baseball: Returning to his alma mater to replace mentor Buck Bailey, Hopkins was 380-288 in 32 seasons as boys basketball coach, interrupted by service in the U.S. Navy during World War II, with eight league titles and three 20-win seasons. As football coach, he was 45-42-20 and won the last two league crowns (1951 and 1955) in school history. Wes Lai, Fairfield water polo, swimming; Rodriguez water polo: Perhaps best known for leading Fairfield to two Sac-Joaquin Section boys water polo titles, the swimming teams he helped coach were a power in the MEL because of strength in numbers. Stephanee Lawrence, Rodriguez tennis: Turned the Mustangs into a dominant tennis program, winning five girls and two boys SCAC championships. Dave Marshall, Armijo baseball: Led the Indians to four league titles and left enough of an impression to have the school’s baseball field named after him. Sarah McLaughlin, Rodriguez swimming: The only swimming coach Rodriguez has known, McLaughlin has led the Mustangs boys to 11 league titles and the girls to eight. Sean Murphy, Vanden football: The Vikings have yet to beat Vacaville during Murphy’s tenure as head coach, but he led them to a
CIF State Championship in December with arguably the best seasonending run in city history. Bob Pickett, Armijo and Rodriguez girls basketball: In 17 seasons at Armijo, Pickett’s squads won two MEL titles and made eight playoff appearances, going 239206. He then served as Rodriguez coach the first two years the school played at the varsity level, going 14-36. Al Pimentel, Fairfield baseball: Served as Fairfield’s baseball coach for more than three decades, but also helped built other successful programs by coaching freshman football, JV football, varsity football, freshman basketball, cross country (for one year). Bill Sarty, Vanden baseball: Before eventually becoming the school’s principal, Sarty led Vanden to its last SJS baseball title in 2006. Ed Serpas, Vanden Football: Starting from scratch when Vanden opened in 1964, Serpas had winning records in 17 of the 18 seasons he coached, compiling a 108-56-4 overall record and 73-39-3 in league mark, winning three league and a Sac-Joaquin Section title in the school’s first playoff appearance in 1975. Cindy Scolavino, Vanden volleyball: Coaching in one of the sports with the deepest talent in the area, Scolavino led the Vikings to the SCAC title in 2010, and MEL and SJS D-III crowns in 2018, annually leading her squads into the postseason. Jim Sykes, Fairfield football: The winningest coach in city history 110-69-2 in 17 seasons with 11 winning campaigns, four .500 records, three league championships and six playoff appearances Ron Thompson, Fairfield boys basketball: 409-262 in 26 seasons with three Delta League and five MEL titles, seven playoff appearances and six 20-win seasons. Don Wakefield, Vanden softball: Coached the Vikings to two SJS titles and three runner-up finishes. Ken Watkins, Vanden girls basketball: In 19 seasons, Watkins teams went 292-206 with four SCAL championships and four 20-win seasons. Eddie Wilson, Fairfield boys basketball: While his teams have fallen on hard times in recent years, Wilson has led Falcons to six league titles, with eight straight 20-win seasons at one point, with an overall 293-182 record.
