FAIRFIELD — A solar project in front of the Fairfield Civic Center Library is causing some short-term access restrictions but promises long-term savings to county taxpayers while also helping to reduce the county’s carbon footprint. Work that’s being performed in the parking lot along Kentucky Street is part of a countywide sustainability program of energy infrastructure upgrades, which includes microgrids with solar and energy storage and electric vehicle charging stations. The work is being done in partnership with ENGIE North America Inc. “The library is excited to be a part of this significant energy project which strives to reduce

the county’s carbon footprint and support its sustainability goals,” Solano County Director of Library Services Suzanne Olawski said in a response to a request for information about the project. Work at the site began late last month and requires closure of the main entrance to the library. But the library remains open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday while the work is taking place. Library patrons must enter through the pond side entrance on the back side of the building. The solar canopy structure installation phase is now underway at the library. Four solar canopy structures will be constructed and installed and solar inverters and a combiner box will be mounted on the

structures. Wiring and commissioning also will occur as part of this phase, which is expected to run through mid-December, Olawski reports. Installation of electric vehicle charging stations will begin after the solar installations and will take approximately two weeks. Five dual port electric vehicle charging stations will be installed that can charge up to 10 electric vehicles simultaneously. Two will be designated to people with disabilities. For more information about the countywide energy infrastructure upgrade program, contact Solano County General Services at 707-784-7900. For more information about library operations, contact Solano County Library at 707-784-1500.

Social media users tied to Russia are using political cartoons to try to influence the outcome of tight electoral races ahead of the U.S. midterms, according to research provided exclusively to Bloomberg News. Members of a Russian group accused of meddling in prior U.S. elections have pushed internet memes that promote right-wing conspiracy theories in a way that aims to undermine support for Democratic political candidates, according to the social media analysis firm Graphika Inc. The users, who are associated with Russia’s Internet Research Agency, have promoted racist and inflammatory talking points in recent days about Democratic candidates including U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock and gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams in Georgia, Gov. Kathy Hochul in New York, U.S. Senate candidate John Fetterman in Pennsylvania and U.S. Senate candidate Tim Ryan in Ohio, researchers found.

SUISUN CITY — The California Public Utility Commission is considering changes to the Net Energy Metering program, changes the city and other clean energy advocates say will cool the clean energy market. The City Council on Tuesday agreed to send a letter to the California Public Utilities Commission asking it to change

its intention to “devalue” the Net Energy Metering program. This comes after Suisun City invested into a solar energy program that won the city national recognition. And while the value of the city’s credit for energy it sends back to the grid will not change, the City Council is concerned the lower rate in NET 3.0 will keep some of the city’s partners and

LOS ANGELES — For almost two years, Covid-19 vaccine holdouts have been the objects of earnest pleading and financial inducements, of social-media shaming and truth campaigns. They’ve missed weddings, birthday celebrations and recitals, and even forfeited high-stakes athletic competitions. Until last month, they were barred from entering the United States and more than 100 other countries. Now the unvaccinated are suddenly back in the mix.

The campaign also promoted misleading Russian talking points, such as the idea that Ukraine is a Nazi state and the notion that the Biden administration – by lending aid to Ukraine – is contributing to a falling standard of living in America. Since Oct. 29, those users have shared six new political cartoons, signed by “Schmitz,” according to Graphika’s latest findings.

Rockford Files,” “Theme from S.W.A.T.,” “Baretta’s Theme (Keep Your Eye On The Sparrow),” “Mission Impossible” and “Hawaii 5-O.” The drums in the latter were one of the first I remember really liking in a theme song. I also always enjoyed the active drums in the original theme for “The People’s Court.” Did you know the guy who played the skins on that pioneering TV court show, Barry Morgan, also played on the Elton John song “Levon” as well as the soundtrack to “Little Shop of Horrors?” I didn’t, either, but the internet did. When it comes to ones with some killer phat bass, in my book, it’s a tie between the themes for “Barney Miller” and “Night Court.” The funkiest TV theme song ever in my view would be the Quincy Jones composition “The Streetbeater,” which served as the theme for “Sanford and Son.” Another fan described it online thusly: “That dirty, growlin’ sax, that distorted organ, that thumpin’ soulful bassline, that whistlin’ harmonica, funky drums and cowbell! Lawdy!” Now when it comes to theme songs from animated TV shows, ones like “The Flintstones” and “The Jetsons” come to mind. I can’t listen to the “Mighty Mouse” theme without thinking of Andy Kaufman lip-syncing the line “Here I come to save the day!” But my all-time favorite animated show theme song is the one for “Underdog.” Besides the cooing vocals at the beginning and the regal music, it’s the lyrics that distin-

The ones that were among the longest

and weirdest were those anchoring Sid and Marty Krofft shows like “H.R. Pufnstuf” and “Lidsville.” While they may have set the stage for what was to take place in those shows, they never addressed exactly what type of hallucinogens or combination of hallucinogens the creators were on when they thought them up. Now, as for a spoken word intro to a TV theme song, it just doesn’t get any better than: “To the Batmobile! Let’s go! Atomic batteries to power, turbines to speed! Roger, ready to move out!” Then a squeal of the tires and the driving, pulsing rhythm of the theme from the campy 1960s “Batman” show begins. Upon hearing it, I want to don a mask and cape and go punch supervillains so hard that words like

KAPOW! and BLAP! will appear out of thin air. While the Bat-intro doesn’t have quite the same effect when what you’re driving is a Jeep Renegade and you’re not going to Gotham City to foil the plans of the Joker, but to Walmart to get some soy milk, I still recite it from time to time.

A sneakerhead is making custom Nikes and New Balances - for horses The Washington Post For decades, the Michael Jordans, LeBron Jameses and Kevin Durants of the sports world have cashed in by wearing sneakers and signing multimillion-dollar shoe deals. But what about the Seabiscuits, Secretariats and Seattle Slews? Where is the hoofwear for the horse-athlete? Marcus Floyd has an answer, because he doesn’t make horseshoes. He makes horse kicks. Floyd, the 39-year-old owner of the upstart fashion brand Infinite Kustomz, has created multiple sets of designer shoes for the athletically inclined equine. He started retrofitting Nike, Adidas and New Balance sneakers after Visit Lex, the public tourism agency for Lexington, Ky., pitched him on the idea ahead of this weekend’s Breeders’ Cup horse races. “For far too long, these multi-millionaires” – the horses, that is – “have been fitted with traditional, run-ofthe-mill horseshoes,” Visit Lex said on its website promoting the project. “Horse Kicks is here to change that . . . to offer horses of all breeds and disciplines the drip they deserve.” This summer, Visit Lex approached Floyd, who was born and raised in Lexington, to execute its vision. Floyd, who works overnight at a Toyota dealership doing maintenance, said he’s been a sneakerhead since seventh grade. His first pair of topflight shoes: the Air Jordan 11s. He remained obsessed through high school and into adulthood. An “old-school guy,” he would camp out at the mall starting at 3 or 4 in the morning to ensure he got a pair of sneakers the day they dropped.

Marcus Floyd sits in front of a horse statue, wearing his custom shoe, at Thoroughbred Park in Lexington, Ky. “I was a brick-and-mortar kind of guy,” he said. Then, the game changed, Floyd said. Younger sneakerheads started using bots to snap up newly released shoes online, making it nearly impossible to get them in the stores, even for die-hards willing to camp out. So Floyd adapted. Starting in 2016, he made his own “new” shoes, taking older, sometimes less popular, ones and painting them. “If I want something unique I’ll just create it myself,” he said. In 2020, he upped his customization game, flying to Los Angeles to attend a four-day course at the Shoe Surgeon’s SRGN Academy, where students learn to deconstruct and then remake sneakers. Since then, Floyd said, he’s created about 20 pairs. About five months after the academy, he started making shoes for clients. Although Floyd described his average customer as an “everyday sneakerhead,” he said he’s had some standout clients, including Shawn Stockman of Boyz II Men and actor

Isaac Keys from the TV show “Power Book IV: Force.” Earlier this year, he made a client a Duke Universitythemed pair of Nike Air Force 1s that she wore at the retirement party for legendary Blue Devils basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski. Then, in June, a public relations firm approached Floyd on behalf of Visit Lex, also known as the Lexington Convention and Visitors Bureau, to pitch him on an idea: What if you made shoes for horses? The organization charged with cheerleading all things Lexington, which the bureau has dubbed the “Horse Capital of the World,” said the broader sports world often overlooks the athleticism of racehorses and wanted to do something to highlight it. “They thought it would be cool to basically build the horses up as athletes,” Floyd said, “because that’s what they are.” Then came the idea: Athletes wear shoes. They get sneaker deals. Those shoes become part of their brands and identities. Why not horses like Triple Crown winners

Justify or American Pharoah? So the group approached Floyd, and he got to work. Unlike the shoes he had been making for humans, he had no guide to rely on. As far as he could tell, no one had ever made sneakers for horses. His prototype – modified Air Jordan 1s - took 12 to 15 hours to design, deconstruct and craft into hoofwear. And that was just for one shoe, not the four needed to outfit a horse. But Floyd said he’ll be able to cut production time with more experience. He also plans to make Infinite Kustomz-branded horse kicks from scratch, which will eliminate the time required to break down sneakers made for human feet. He’s produced five fourshoe sets so far: two out of Air Jordan 1s, one from New Balance 650s, one out of Adidas Yeezys and a set in the style of the Nike Mag Back to the Future shoes. Floyd said the amount of attention his horse kicks are getting is surreal, and he’s trying to soak it all in. “The initial reaction was of release, because like wow, the world is finally seeing my art,” Floyd said. “I’m finally getting the love that I thought maybe would have come a long time ago for some of the other projects I’ve done.” But he’s trying not to get too wrapped up in it. There’s still work to be done. He also wants to team up with big shoe companies to tap into the new industry, which he said has a lot of room to grow. “There’s a huge market for shoes for these athletes, whether they’re running in them, jumping or just traveling to the show,” Floyd said, adding that he hopes the companies “understand the market for the horse-athlete.”

FAIRFIELD — More than 450 volunteers will be out Saturday working at 13 park and open space sites “to expand, maintain and beautify the Bay Area Ridge Trail.” Those sites include the Patwino Worrtla Kodoi Dihi Open Space Park in Rockville and the Hiddenbrooke-Highgate Road trailhead in Vallejo. The Solano Land Trust is involved with both project sites, and the city at the trailhead. “For 15 years, this has been one of the biggest single-day volunteer trail projects of the year. Trail lovers get their hands dirty building new Ridge Trail segments and stewarding existing trails. Last year, 16 miles of Ridge Trail were spruced up on Ridge Trail Service Day, including native planting, trail rerouting and general trail maintenance,” organizers said in a statement. Support includes a first-time grant from the The Trail Fund, an initiative of American Trails and administered by the Trails Move People Coalition. Other sponsors include Clif Family Foundation, GU

Solano going green in honor of veterans Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The Solano County government center next week will be lit up in green, and the lights along Texas Street in the downtown also will be similarly tinted in honor of U.S. military veterans. It is all part of the national campaign to bring awareness to veterans issues, including suicide. “Since the first Gulf War, Aug. 2, 1990, to Feb. 28, 1991, our nation’s voluntary military force members, and their families, have made immense sacrifices for our safety and security,” Al Sims, director of Solano County Veteran Services, said in a statement. “As in previous generations, the sacrifices of our armed forces often results in significant stress to many of the veter-

ans who served in times of war and conflict. We want to make sure our veterans and their families know that their service mattered, that we are grateful for their sacrifices, and that SIMS it is now our turn to make sure they are served by their county government and our community,” Sims added. In addition to lighting county buildings, residents and businesses are encouraged to participate by simply changing one light bulb to a green bulb. The Board of Supervisors this week adopted a resolution recognizing Nov. 7-13 as Operation Green Light for Veterans. “After transitioning from military service, many veterans continue to serve our community, including in the American

Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, religious groups, civil service, and by functioning as county Veteran Service officers, including in 29 states, to help fellow former service members access more than $52 billion in federal health, disability and compensation benefits each year,” the resolution states. “With more than 200,000 service members transitioning to civilian communities each year, studies indicate that 44 to 72% of service members experience high levels of stress during their transition, with active military service members at the highest risk for suicide during their first year,” the resolution adds. The resolution specifically notes personnel who

serve at Travis Air Force Base, “and believes specific recognition should be granted to them, recognizing their sacrifices made while defending our freedom, both domestic and abroad.” This is the first year of the initiative, which is spearheaded by the National Association of Counties and the National Association of County Veteran Service Officers. “Operation Green Light for Veterans is a simple way to express our profound gratitude for the immeasurable sacrifices our veterans have made to protect our country and our way of life,” NACo President Denise Winfrey said in a statement. “By shining a green light, we are sending the message that veterans are seen, appreciated and supported.” There are 17.5 million veterans in the U.S.

FAIRFIELD — The rate of reported coronavirus cases inched up Thursday since the last Solano County Public Health update Oct. 27. However, this week’s report shows the cases continue to be mild and are not resulting in a spike of hospital admissions or deaths. The county reported 317 new cases since the prior update, with 309 of those cases from that actual seven-day period. That means a daily case rate of 44.14, while the 10-day rate went from 36.3 cases to 43.7 cases. “It’s not alarming. It’s really not a deviation from what we have been seeing,” Dr. Bela Matyas, the county public health officer, said Thursday in a phone interview. “It’s not an indication that we are getting into the next surge.” However, Matyas said he believes a winter surge in inevitable and he expects to see that in the next month or so. There were no new deaths, keeping the pandemic total for the county at 441, while the number of residents in areas hospitals with a positive coronavirus test dropped from 11 on Oct. 27 to Thursday’s report of 10. The number of patients in intensive care units, however, is three, up from two, the county reported. Vacaville had the most new cases at 97, taking its total to 27,840. Vallejo added 96 for a new count of 33,710. Fairfield is at

30,157 after 74 new cases, the county reported. Suisun City (7,792) added 16 cases; Dixon (5,288) added 11; Benicia (4,558) added 14; Rio Vista (1,558) added eight; and there was one new case reported for the unincorporated area, taking that total to 226, the county reported. Matyas has previously indicated Covid-19 case counts are likely much higher with the use of in-home testing, results of which are not generally reported to government agencies and in many cases are not shared with medical providers if medical treatment is not needed. He has also said availability of vaccines and changes to personal behavior have slowed the disease throughout the Bay Area. Vaccination rates continue to hold steady with 72% of residents who are 5 or older having been fully vaccinated and 81% having received at least one shot. There have been 182,489 booster shots administered. That is up 253 since the last update, the county reported. The number of vaccines given to children 6 months to 4 years is at 2,182 (9.7%), while the number of vaccines given to children 5 to 11 is actually down due to families leaving the county. The number is 13,213 (35.6%). The county reports 41 monkeypox cases, with most recent reports being older reports of residents who were out of Solano County.

Marijuana raid nets 250 pounds of pot, 216 plants Todd R. Hansen

THANSEN@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The city Police Department confiscated more than 250 pounds of marijuana and 216 plants from an illegal growing operation at a Kentucky Street house. Two Glock-style handguns and a shortbarrel AR-15 rifle also were confiscated, the police said in a statement released Wednesday. “Anonymous tips from residents recently initiated an investigation into a possible illegal marijuana grow,” the statement said. The investigation led to a search warrant being obtained for the residence and property on the 1600 block of Kentucky Street, the statement said. The narcotics-related warrant was served shortly after 3 p.m. Oct. 20 by members of the Fairfield Police Department’s Special Operations Team and patrol officers. A pitbull kept the police at bay until a Humane Animal Services officer removed the pitbull and six other dogs. Detectives found 216 marijuana plants inside and outside the residence, along with approximately 250 pounds of processed marijuana, according to the statement, along with additional unprocessed marijuana inside the home as well the two handguns and the shortbarrel rifle. Some of the plants were 8 feet tall, but

The estimated value of the processed marijuana is, conservatively, $100,000 to $125,000, the Police Department reported in an email response to the Daily Republic “Each plant will incur a $500 fine, for a total of around $108,000,” the email states. The pitbull was not the only risk for the officers. “An illegal grow can be very dangerous. There are numerous hazards, including the presence of fertilizers and other chemicals, pressurized (carbon dioxide) and propane cylinders, entan-

glement risks, structural modifications, overloaded electrical circuits and bypassed electrical meters,” the email stated. The police said that situation does create a fire hazard for the house and surrounding homes. “The odor of the plants was so strong that it could be smelled at least a block away and had been causing a huge quality of life issue for residents in the surrounding area,” the original police statement said. “The house was also red tagged by code enforcement for various violations. It was complaints of odor that launched the investigation, the police said.

VACAVILLE — The Vacaville veterans and auxiliaries are seeking donations of hams, turkeys and desserts for the annual Thanksgiving meal – as well as cash donations. Donations go toward the annual holiday meal for veterans and their families. A Christmas meal will also be planned. This year’s meal will again be delivery only due to the ongoing pandemic. “We are hoping to open it up to in-person meals again next year,” Lynn Jewell said. She, Jeff Jewell and Lewis Derfuss are the event coordinators. “This program has been well supported by the community’s donations in the past and we again are accepting donations of hams, turkeys and desserts, as well as your cash donations which give us the greatest flexibility to purchase what we need to provide this dinner,” the organizers said in a statement. “As usual, the menu will be turkey and ham and all the trimmings and those who call in before-

Volunteers – starting Friday – will be at the veterans hall Mondays through Saturdays to accept donations and accept sign-ups for meal deliveries. Organizers urge that donations of turkeys and

hams be made prior to Nov. 18 “so that we have time to prep and cook them.” Cash donations will be accepted at any time, with checks made payable to VFW Post 7244 and sent or dropped off at the veterans hall, 549 Merchant St., Vacaville, CA 95688. Donations may also be made via PayPal at https://www.facebook.

David DePape, suspect in violent Pelosi attack, in US illegally, ICE officials say Tribune Content Agency David DePape, the man charged with attempted murder in connection with a violent attack against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, is in the U.S. illegally and could be deported to Canada, Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials said Thursday. DePape, 42, has pleaded not guilty to multiple charges in connection with Friday’s attack, which left Pelosi with a fractured skull and serious injuries to his right arm and hands. Federal authorities said DePape, who grew up in British Columbia and moved to California more than 20 years ago, according to a family member who spoke with the Los Angeles Times, had plotted to take Nancy Pelosi, hostage and break her kneecaps, calling her the “leader of the pack” of lies told by the Democratic Party. Records pulled by ICE found that DePape entered the U.S. as a temporary visitor in March 2008 at the San Ysidro port of entry. Canadians who enter as temporary visitors generally do not require a visa, officials said. The status DePape used to enter the U.S. generally allows Canadians to stay for six months. On Tuesday, ICE officials issued an immigration detainer on DePape with the San Francisco County Jail, where he is currently being held without bail. The detainer seeks a notification from San Francisco law enforcement to notify ICE before he is released in order for the federal agency to take custody of him. Local and state laws limit when jail officials can notify ICE of an individual’s release date. ICE issues detainers against people facing criminal charges whom the agency has probable cause to believe can be deported. In a motion seeking to deny bail, the San Francisco district attorney’s office said DePape told officers and medics at

A San Francisco police officer stands guard in front of the home of U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., in San Francisco, Oct. 28. Paul Pelosi, the husband of U.S. Speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi, was violently attacked in their home by an intruder. One arrest has been made. Speaker Pelosi was not at home at the time of the attack. the scene, “I’m sick of the insane f---ing level of lies coming out of Washington, D.C.“ Judge Diane Northway ordered DePape held without bail pending additional hearings. In addition to attempted murder, DePape has been charged with residential burglary, assault with a deadly weapon, elder abuse, false imprisonment of an elder and threats to a public official and their family. He faces 13 years to life in prison if convicted of all local charges. He also faces federal assault and kidnapping charges. Prosecutors said DePape smashed through the glass patio door of the Pelosis’ San Francisco home around 2 a.m. Friday. It is unclear whether any alarms at the house sounded, but officials said after breaking in, DePape managed to get to the second floor. There, he found Paul Pelosi, 82, sleeping and repeatedly shouted, “Where’s Nancy?” officials said. The House speaker was in Washington, D.C. — along her extensive with Capitol Police security team — and her husband was home alone at the time of the break-in. Realizing the potential danger, Pelosi managed to make a quick, sur-

reptitious phone call to 911 and left the line open, authorities said. A 911 dispatcher realized something was seriously wrong and immediately sent police to the address. Security cameras for the Pelosis’ Pacific Heights residence were not actively being monitored by U.S. Capitol Police the night of the violent home invasion, the government agency said Wednesday. After reports to The Times and other outlets that a security feed existed, Capitol Police said in a statement that the cameras “are used to actively monitor the speaker’s San Francisco residence around the clock when she is there” but acknowledged that when she is in Washington, D.C., with her security detail — as she was during Friday’s break-in — the “cameras were not actively monitored.” Prosecutors allege DePape had other targets in mind — including a Bay Area professor and prominent state and federal politicians and their families — when he broke into the Pelosis’ home. He planned to wait for the speaker to return, a motion to deny his bail noted. Police have not offered a motive for the attack. But San Francisco District Attorney Brooke

Jenkins said Monday that based on DePape’s statements and comments to Pelosi, it “was politically motivated.” A Times review of his online accounts showed that DePape has been involved in the world of far-right conspiracies, antisemitism and hate. In a personal blog DePape maintained, posts include “Manipulation of History,” “Holohoax” and “It’s OK to be white.” He mentions 4chan, a favorite message board of the far right. He posted videos about conspiracies involving COVID-19 vaccines and the war in Ukraine being a ploy for Jewish people to buy land. DePape’s screeds include posts about QAnon, an unfounded theory that former President Donald Trump is at war with a cabal of Satanworshipping Democratic elites who run a child sex ring and control the world. In an Aug. 23 entry titled “Q,” DePape wrote: “Either Q is Trump himself or Q is the deep state moles within Trumps inner circle.” Adam Lipson, DePape’s public defender, said his client’s “vulnerability to misinformation” will be examined as part of his defense.

SUISUN CITY — A man suspected of burglarizing a residence was arrested Thursday after a vehicle pursuit that ended when the driver bailed out of the car while it was still moving and fled into a nearby apartment, police report. Police officers responded at approximately 9 a.m. to a suspicious vehicle on the 800 block of Golden Eye Way. The reporting party indicated a man had entered a residence and was carrying several items from inside the residence, police report in a community update. Officers arrived there and saw a man, later identified as Ronnie Bankston, 48, of Suisun City, carrying several items into a dark color Ford sedan.

The National Center for Appropriate Technology has launched an interactive website for its ATTRA Sustainable Agriculture program. ATTRA, or Appropriate Technology Transfer Rural Areas, has been a resource for sustainable and organic farmers and ranchers since 1987. The website features nearly 400 “practical digital publications on everything from growing organic tomatoes to becoming an agrotourism destination.

ories after I’ve spent all of these years trying to heal. For someone who says she supposedly cares about me to also say some of the most hurtful things at the same time and not realize it really stings. — Playing Romantic Referee Dear Referee: I’m so sorry for the loss of your wife. The death of a spouse is a lifelong ache, and though you have healed in ways since her passing, it’s something that will always hold a tender place in your heart. It’s very insensitive, and frankly immature, for your current girlfriend to make these sorts of comments about her. In order to have a future together, you have to explain to your girlfriend how her constantly bringing up the past is impacting your present. Of course you still love your wife – a fact you cannot change, nor can you change that she’s the mother of your children. You can simultaneously love and grieve what you once had with your wife while wanting to pursue a new life with your girlfriend. But it doesn’t make it easy to do so if she continues trudging up painful memories and insulting the memory of the woman before her. I would suggest couples counseling before you make any long-term commitment to this woman. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@ creators.com.

Shepard Smith will depart CNBC after his show is canceled The Washington Post Shepard Smith, who joined CNBC in summer 2020 after a long career as a Fox News anchor, will no longer appear on the financial news channel after the evening news program he anchors is canceled at the end of November, the network announced Thursday. “The News with Shepard Smith,” which airs at 7 p.m. weekdays, was meant to be a “nonpartisan” daily run-down of the country’s biggest news stories, which CNBC hoped would rival evening newscasts on the broadcast networks and their millions of viewers. But despite regularly landing interviews with key newsmakers, Smith’s show struggled to capture even a fraction

of that audience. Instead, the network will pivot the evening time slot back to its core product – business news and personal finance – after Smith’s show wraps up. “Decisions like these are not arrived at hastily or taken lightly,” CNBC president KC Sullivan said in a message to employees on Thursday that was obtained by The Washington Post. “I believe this decision will ultimately help to strengthen our brand and the value we provide our audiences. A network employee with knowledge of the situation said the decision was not a cost-cutting move, though Smith earned a large salary as an evening news anchor. Smith could not immediately be reached for comment.

inflammatory narratives and now directly targeting Democratic candidates in these midterm races.” The activity identified by Graphika is associated with the Newsroom for American and European Based Citizens, also known as NAEBC, a propaganda organization that security researchers have associated with the IRA. The threat intelligence firm Recorded Future Inc. in October determined that NAEBC has used the Gab platform to promote prominent Republican lawmakers who have criticized President Joe Biden. Some of assets pushed links to media entities tied to Yevgeny Prigozhin, a confidant of Russian President Vladimir Putin and founder of the IRA who is wanted by the FBI for his alleged involvement in election interference. The number of accounts involved with amplifying the most recent activity wasn’t immediately clear. The propaganda activity in recent weeks is led by a subset of accounts that have been largely dormant since January and only recently resumed activity, according to Graphika.

From Page One California’s transition to renewable energy. Over 4 gigawatts of clean energy have been built by more than 30,000 companies and government entities. These projects are not only helping to clean the air but are also providing muchneeded grid reliability benefits as well as local jobs. The potential for this market to grow to help meet California’s future energy needs is great. Fostering such growth should be a pillar of California’s clean energy roadmap. Your forthcoming NEM 3.0 decision is the foundation of that growth,” the letter states. “A balanced approach would include either a healthy delay in stepping down the export compensation rate that takes into consideration broader market conditions as well as the state’s clean energy goals, or at the very least, would include a very gradual stepdown of that rate over the course of several years. In contrast, the December 2021 proposed decision would have expected the commercial market to move immediately to a greatly reduced rate which would have devastated future investments in solar and energy storage,” the letter states.

Danger From Page One and boosted, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. But, Shaman acknowledged, “the danger to the rest of us is a more debatable issue.” When public officials imposed vaccine mandates, the unvaccinated certainly appeared to pose demonstrable dangers to their communities. State and local leaders sought not only to suppress spread of the virus, but also to prevent their health care systems from being overwhelmed, degrading care for all. The unvaccinated made those goals harder to achieve since they were more likely to become infected and, when they did, to require hospitalization. U.S. officials had long hoped to vaccinate the American public into a state of “herd immunity,” in which so few people would be vulnerable to the virus that the outbreak would simply sputter out. That objective assumed a uniformly high uptake of vaccine across the nation. It also assumed a vaccine that protected against reinfection, and did so durably. But none of that came to pass. About 30% of Americans have yet to complete their initial series of Covid-19 shots, including the 20% who haven’t rolled up their sleeves even once. Meanwhile, the virus continues to evolve in ways that erode vaccines’ protection, making “breakthrough infections” increasingly common. The longer the pandemic drags on, the more complicated things get. For one thing, whether those who remain unvaccinated are still driving coronavirus spread hinges partly on the status of the U.S. population’s immunity. Almost three years into the pandemic, that is a hard map to draw — both because the public’s immunity comes from different sources, and because it waxes and wanes. More than 200 million adults and nearly 25 million children ages 5 and up have completed a primary series of Covid-19 vaccine. However, against the

For the 49% of “fully vaccinated” Americans who’ve had at least one booster dose, infection remains a possibility, but the prospects of becoming seriously ill or dying of Covid-19 are sharply reduced. And then there’s the “natural immunity” gained from a coronavirus infection. By February 2022, after the first wave of omicron infections swept across the U.S., 58% of Americans were believed to have been infected at some point in the pandemic, leaving them with some modest level of protection. The ranks of the previously infected have surely increased since then thanks to the second omicron surge during the late spring and summer. An unknown number of Americans have “hybrid immunity” from both an infection and vaccine. Researchers believe that catching the coronavirus after vaccination (though not so much the other way around) may provide enhanced protection against severe illness and death. But whether that is the case – and how much – can vary based on how long ago an infection took place and the particular variant that caused it. In other words, Americans range in vulnerability from the unvaccinated and never infected to the vaccinated, previously infected and fully boosted, with infinite gradations of protection in between. In conditions like these, the role the unvaccinated could play in seeding outbreaks will vary. “It’s kind of a patch-

work,” said Harvard University epidemiologist Stephen Kissler. “It’s changing over time, and it’s changing over space. So it’s hard to say where any given community is at any given time.” The steady waning of immunity raises a discouraging prospect: that over time, people who are still called “fully vaccinated” will become indistinguishable from the unvaccinated unless they’ve received a booster. Until more Americans embrace booster shots, the “undervaccinated” will steadily swell the ranks of the vulnerable. Wherever they are, they’ll help keep the pandemic going. The country’s mainstay vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna do not construct a force field around recipients that shields them from ever becoming infected with the coronavirus. Nor do they prevent a person with a breakthrough infection from spreading the virus to others. However, the vaccines appear to reduce the amount of virus a sick person sheds by coughing, sneezing or simply talking. That means unvaccinated people are not only more likely to be infected, but also somewhat more likely to spread it to others. It would be hard to assert that if everyone were vaccinated, the coronavirus would just go to ground. This pathogen has proved adept at finding ways around our vaccine protection and is likely to remain a presence among us for generations to come, like influenza and HIV. But the unvaccinated and undervaccinated are almost certainly playing an outsized role in the coronavirus’ contin-

ued success, experts say. Exactly how much is hard to pinpoint. Scientists can quantify transmission differences between the vaccinated and the unvaccinated in the lab. Applying those differences to the real world is much trickier, especially in a population as immunologically diverse as Americans now are. Finally, there’s concern that unvaccinated and undervaccinated Americans could accelerate the emergence of new coronavirus variants, some of which are bound to be even more transmissible or more adept at evading existing Covid-19 vaccines and therapies. Either – or both – would cause new waves of transmission and illness. While it’s a theoretical possibility, the unvaccinated are not prolific incubators of genetic variants. People with immune system deficiencies are much more likely to develop the long-running bouts of Covid-19 that can spawn new variants with concerning mutations, and most of them are vaccinated. Covid-19 surges promote the emergence of variants. By virtue of the sheer number of people infected, a surge increases the numbers of times the virus replicates and offers it more chances to mutate. If it drives hospitalizations, it will ensnare patients being treated for immune-compromising conditions such as HIV, cancer and organ transplants. And as the unvaccinated are joined by ever-larger numbers of people who are undervaccinated, surges become a more plausible prospect. People routinely confuse their communities’ state of immunity with their own vulnerability, said Dr. Peter Hotez, co-director of the Center for Vaccine Development at Texas Children’s Hospital and dean of Baylor College of Medicine’s National School of Tropical Medicine. When fewer of their neighbors are getting sick and dying, and high vaccination rates have suppressed Covid19, even the unvaccinated feel invulnerable. “That could be a lethal mistake,” he warned.

Unexpected weather ‘decapitated’ state’s fire season, experts say Tribune Content Agency

Dai Sugano/Bay Area News Group

California Governor Gavin Newsom speaks before signing legislation establishing in San Jose, Sep. 14.

Gavin Newsom blocks $1B in homelessness funding for cities, counties, saying they aren’t doing enough Tribune Content Agency SACRAMENTO — California Gov. Gavin Newsom will withhold $1 billion in state funding from cities and counties because he says local governments are failing to get people off the streets fast enough. Newsom’s Thursday morning announcement represents some of the accountability Newsom has long promised on homelessness, one of the Golden State’s most pressing problems. His administration has put billions of dollars for housing and homeless funding in the state budget, which Republicans and some Democrats say isn’t being used effectively. Newsom’s assessment is based on plans his administration required cities and counties to submit to his office detailing how they would reduce homelessness in their areas. On Thursday, he announced that the plans local governments submitted would only reduce homelessness by 2% by 2024, which he called “unacceptable.” “Californians demand accountability and results, not settling for the status quo,” he said in a statement. “At this pace, it would take decades to significantly curb homelessness in California — this approach is simply unacceptable.” Newsom says his office will convene local government leaders this month to improve their plans. His move to suspend the homeless funding is the latest example of Newsom’s willingness to step into local matters he feels aren’t being adequately addressed. Last month, Newsom suspended $1.7 million in state funds that had been earmarked for San Francisco to build a single bathroom in Noe Valley, saying the city needed to find a way to bring the cost down. Earlier this year, his administration announced it was reviewing San Francisco’s long and arduous housing approval process in an effort to get housing built more quickly. His crackdowns on housing and homeless plans in San Francisco and other parts of the state come as his administration is floundering on his biggest campaign promises: to build more housing and to get people off the streets. Recent analyses by CalMatters have found that California’s homeless population grew by 22,000 people over the pandemic and that Cali-

Remnants of an atmospheric river brought Northern California its first solid storm of the year – rain splattered across the Bay Area and Central Coast, while some parts of Tahoe saw snowfall boosted to above average levels for this time of year. Despite a historic heat wave in September, weather unexpectedly turned colder and wetter. A rare September storm came after the record temperatures and stopped the fire season in its tracks. October was marked by a deep marine layer that sent fog to all corners of the Bay Area. “That really made a decisive difference in that it decapitated, if you will, the peak of fire season,” said Daniel

Swain, a climate scientist at UCLA and the Nature Conservancy. This week’s storm was a boon, bringing up to a half a foot to a foot of snow across Tahoe so far. Rains throughout the Bay Area mixed with plunging temperatures have felt winter-like. And weather forecasts signal this is the beginning of a larger pattern of more rain and snow to come throughout November. So, is Northern California’s fire season officially over? “As this pattern keeps developing, with more rain, this is pretty much the end,” said Craig Clements, director of San Jose State University’s Wildfire Interdisciplinary Research Center. “And it should be because we’re already in November.” If the weather pattern

continues, the fast-moving, hot-burning, severe emblematic wildfires of California’s fire season, will go dormant. “The upcoming additional precipitation will probably be enough to really kill it off,” Swain said. San Francisco Chronicle newsroom meteorologist Gerry Díaz echoed Swain. “It’s honestly the best case scenario for ending this fire season,” Díaz said. “We’re past the peak.” October’s foggy weather and November’s rains dampen vegetation, making it difficult for fire to spread. The snow at higher elevations further reduces fire risk by keeping soil moistures high. “This just really kind of locks it in,”

said Clements. In the Bay Area, the moist and cool weather systems have meant the amount of water stored in vegetation – or fuel moisture – is reaching average levels for this time of year. To Díaz, in a multiyear drought, that signals wildfire risk is low. The wet weather may seem unusual, but it’s actually typical for California in November, contrary to wildfire seasons in recent years and increasingly extreme weather due to climate change. “It’s refreshingly normal,” Swain said. “We’ve had a lot of out of the ordinary years recently.”

Solano volleyball clinches share of conference title B2 Friday, November 4, 2022 SECTION B Matt Miller . Sports Editor . 707.427.6995

Phillies let one slip away in loss to Astros Tribune Content Agency PHILADELPHIA — The Phillies let struggling Houston Astros starting pitcher Justin Verlander off the hook and now they are one loss away from being knocked out of the World Series. Kyle Schwarber hit the second pitch of the game for a tying home run, but the Phillies managed just one more run as the Astros captured Game 5, 3-2 on Thursday night. The Astros took a 3-2 lead

in the series and can wrap up their second title with a win in Houston in either Game 6 Saturday or Game 7 Sunday. It is the first time this postseason the Phillies have trailed in a series, having previously defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, Atlanta Braves and San Diego Padres. They also took leads of 1-0 and 2-1 in the World Series before losing the last two. Schwarber’s leadoff home run came a night after the Phillies were

no-hit - just the third postseason no-hitter in Major League Baseball history. Verlander stranded six baserunners over the first three innings without another Phillie crossing the plate. Shortstop Jeremy Pena’s leaping grab of a Nick Castellanos line drive with a runner on in the third likely prevented a big inning. Overall, Verlander gave up four hits, walked four and struck out five while stranding seven in five grueling innings.

Phillies starter Noah Syndergaard pitched better than his final line, allowing only three of the 11 baserunners he faced but two of them scored. Pena was involved in all the Houston offense. Jose Altuve doubled to lead off the game and moved to third when center fielder and Gold Glove finalist Brandon Marsh had trouble picking up the ball. He scored on a Pena single through a drawn-in infield. Pena was erased on

a strike ‘em out-throw ‘em out double play and Syndergaard settled in through three innings. He came out to face one batter in the fourth with Connor Brogdon ready to take on lefty Yordan Alvarez, but Pena lofted a two-strike pitch into the first row of the leftfield stands to make it a 2-1 game. In the eighth inning, Pena’s hit-and-run single off Seranthony Dominguez put Astros on the corners with no outs.

Yordan Alvarez’s RBI groundout against David Robertson scored the run when first baseman Rhys Hoskins could only knock down the grounder. The Phillies got one run back against Rafael Montero in the eighth on two walks and an RBI single by Jean Segura, but Marsh struck out on three pitches with runners on the corners against closer Ryan Presslyand Schwarber grounded out to first on a hard-hit ball.

Road woes continue for the Warriors in Orlando By K hobi Price ORLANDO SENTINEL

ORLANDO, Fla. — The Orlando Magic’s season-long sevengame homestand couldn’t have come at a better time. Especially with their road woes, most recently blowing an 11-point fourth-quarter lead in a loss to the Thunder in Oklahoma City on Tuesday, to remain winless in away games. The homestand couldn’t have started better, kicking it off with a 130-129 win over the Golden State Warriors Thursday at Amway Center, with the Magic closing out a tight game successfully for the first time. After playing six of their first eight games on the road, the Magic appreciate staying in Orlando and playing at Amway Center for the next two weeks. Jalen Suggs led the Magic with 26 points, nine assists and four

steals, including a pull-up 3-pointer with 37.7 seconds remaining to give Orlando a 129-126 lead. He knocked down a free throw to give the Magic a 130-126 lead with 31 1/2 seconds left. Klay Thompson (27 points) buried a heavily contested 3 to reduce the Warriors’ deficit to 130-129 and Paolo Banchero turned the ball over on the ensuing possession to give Golden State the final possession with 4.9 seconds left. But the Magic (2-7) held on for their first clutch win after Thompson missed a floater at the buzzer. Stephen Curry led the Warriors with 39 points and nine assists. Banchero finished with 22 points, eight rebounds and three assists. Franz Wagner had 19 points while Wendell Carter Jr. added 14 points and eight rebounds. Chima Okeke led the bench with 16 points.

Vanden girls tennis reaches final; Vaca advances to semis Daily Republic Staff DRNEWS@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — The Vanden High School girls tennis team is headed to the Sac-Joaquin Section Division III finals after five singles players dominated their matches in a 6-3 win Wednesday over Roseville in the semifinals. Sasha Smith, Delaney Ramsell, Camille Arca, Jeanelle DelaCruz and Hailey Lam all won in straight sets. The No. 1 doubles team of Danali Hardwick and Kaylani Payne also won in straight sets but needed a first set tiebreaker to do so. This will be the Vikings third straight trip to the section finals. There were no finals contested in 2020 because of the Covid-19 pandemic. The top-seed Vikings will take on No. 2 Oakmont on Monday at Oak Park

in Stockton. “I’m very proud of all our players who over the last two matches have fought so hard to give us a chance to defend our title from last year,” Vanden head coach Stan Lewis said in an email. Vacaville, meanwhile, kept its unbeaten streak alive Wednesday and rolled past Vista del Lago to a 6-3 win in the Division II quarterfinals in Folsom. No. 5 Vacaville is 18-0 overall and will play at top-seed Woodcreek on Monday. Gabriella Perry, Victoria Silva, Lily Holman and Alexis Gormley all won singles matches in straight sets. The doubles teams of Ayanna Gentry-Reese Hsiao and Ava Sheppard-Ella Aguirre also came away with wins. Sheppard and Aguirre did so by winning a third set tiebreak.

Vacaville and Will C. Wood football teams open section playoffs at home Matt Miller

FAIRFIELD — Vacaville High School’s football team hasn’t played Lodi in a postseason game since a 28-7 win in 1985, so Mike Papadopoulos and his coaches spent much of Sunday gathering as much information on the Flames as possible. “I know they’ve had quite a season,” Papadopoulos said. “All their losses have come to playoff teams and it looks like we are going to have our hands full. They like the power run game and seem to have a mobile quarterback. They also have an aggressive defense.”

NBA admits refs 49ers’ Nick Bosa is not worried about missed big call in the Defensive Player of the Year talk Kings loss to Heat Cam Inman

BAY AREA NEWS GROUP

By Jason Anderson THE SACRAMENTO BEE

Kings coach Mike Brown was right. Tyler Herro traveled. The NBA acknowledged Thursday that officials missed a critical call in the final seconds of Sacramento’s 110-107 loss to the Miami Heat on Wednesday at FTX Arena. According to the Last 2 Minute Report, Herro should have been called for traveling on the play that led to his gamewinning 3-pointer with 1.8 seconds to play. “Herro (MIA) ends his dribble by gathering in the air and landing on both feet (although his left lands slightly before his right),” the Last 2 Minute Report states. “When he moves his right foot, he establishes his left foot as his pivot foot, which he then

lifts and replaces to the floor before taking his jump shot.” If the play would have been called correctly, the Kings would have been awarded the ball with the game tied and about 3.7 seconds remaining. Brown voice his displeasure immediately after the game, opening his postgame news conference by admonishing officials for the error. “Tyler Herro’s a great player, but he traveled,” Brown said. “He traveled on the last play and I would not be doing my job if I didn’t come up here and protect my guys. My guys fought their behind off for close to 48 minutes, and to (see Herro) pump fake and then sidestep, or hop and then one-two and a shot, and not make that call, to me it’s just unbelievable.”

SANTA CLARA — Nick Bosa, midway through a season with massive financial ramifications, richly deserves to be in the NFL Defensive Player of the Year conversation.

Opinion CALMATTERS COMMENTARY

SF housing project fight may go statewide

department store parking lot in downtown San Francisco is the battleground for a titanic political struggle between rival factions of the city’s dominant Democratic Party. The lot at 469 Stevenson St., just off Market Street, would become a 27-story residential high-rise, if Mayor London Breed and other housing advocates have their way. But San Francisco’s legislative body, the Board of Supervisors, refused last year to approve the project, siding with those who oppose packing more housing and people into the densely populated city. It was a win for Tenants Dan Walters and Owners Development Corporation, a coalition of project opponents. But the action angered Lou Vazquez, one of the project’s developers, who said, “This is the right project for the right place. It’s close to jobs and transit, it’s providing transit for residents at all levels of income in the middle of a greater center.” The board’s 8-3 action touched off intense legal and political skirmishing whose outcome could impact not only on San Francisco but statewide efforts to increase construction and overcome California’s chronic, and everworsening, housing shortage. It immediately became a dominant issue in the special election battle between Supervisor Matt Haney and former Supervisor David Campos over a vacant state Assembly seat. Haney supported the project, tweeting, “We need to build housing, including affordable housing, throughout the city, especially near transit.” Pro-housing development forces backed him while Campos drew backing from the project’s opponents, who argued it would be disruptive and seismically unsafe. Haney won the election and Yes in My Backyard, a pro-development group, sued the Board of Supervisors, contending it had violated the California Environmental Quality Act and the Housing Accountability Act, a law aimed at preventing arbitrary rejection of housing projects. The competing factions also turned to voters. Mayor Breed, housing advocates and business groups placed Proposition D on this month’s ballot. Voter approval would limit the ability of the Board of Supervisors to block housing projects, and the board itself countered with Proposition E, which would bolster the board’s authority over projects. Last week, on the one-year anniversary of the Stevenson Street project’s rejection, the pro-housing faction staged a rally at city hall, complete with gravestones, to mark its demise and beat the drums for Proposition D. “No matter what you propose, no matter how good a project . . . you might still get shot down because of politics,” state Sen. Scott Wiener told the rally. “Let’s make lemonade out of lemons.” “Enough is enough,” Breed said. “It’s still a parking lot because organizations like TODCO didn’t get their cut so they killed it at the Board of Supervisors.” However, project proponents apparently didn’t know that two days earlier, very quietly, a Superior Court judge had ruled against them in the Yes in My Backyard lawsuit. Judge Cynthia Ming-Mei Lee declared, in essence, that none of the violations alleged in the suit can be applied until the Board of Supervisors “completes adequate environmental review under CEQA.” Pro-housing groups see her ruling as an invitation to local bodies such as the Board of Supervisors to stall CEQA reviews of projects they oppose and thereby stall legal action to push projects forward. “This CEQA ruling on the Stevenson Street housing project is every bit as outrageous as the UC Berkeley ‘students-are-pollution’ CEQA ruling,” Wiener tweeted. “We must clarify CEQA doesn’t give cities the power to ignore state housing law. Better yet, let’s remove infill housing from CEQA entirely.” A bill to counteract what the supervisors did to stall the project died in the Legislature this year. But the court’s decision and Wiener’s remarks indicate the conflict over 469 Stevenson Street may become a statewide issue when the Legislature reconvenes.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Solano league ready to assist voters Have you voted yet? With less than a week to go before the election, the Solano Registrar of Voters has received mail-in or drop-off ballots from only 15% of eligible voters. Locations for dropping off completed ballots are available at https://www. solanocounty.com/depts/rov. The 2022 California ballot includes proposals to amend the state Constitution, make new laws (initiative) and approve (or not approve) existing laws (referendum). The League of Women Voters Solano County is prepared to help Solano County voters understand them. n Proposition 1: (a California Constitutional Amendment) adds a guarantee of specific reproductive freedoms (access to abortion and contraception) to the state Constitution. n Propositions 26 and 27 (both California Constitutional Amendments) change existing laws governing gambling to legalize sports betting and other forms of gambling (roulette, dice and sports betting) at tribal casinos (Proposition 26), and/or allow online and mobile sports betting operations conducted by tribal and affiliated businesses outside tribal lands (Proposition 27). n Proposition 28 (an Initiative Statute or proposed law) proposes additional state funding for music and arts education in California public schools. n Proposition 29 (an Initiative Statute, or proposed law) requires on-site professional supervision at dialysis clinics, where patients with kidney failure go for regular filtering of waste and excess fluid from the blood. It also requires regular reporting of infection data and ownership. n Proposition 30 (an Initiative Statute, or proposed law) increases state income taxes on Californians with annual incomes over $2 million, to assist buyers with zero-emission vehicle purchases, construct electric vehicle charging stations and address wildfire prevention and control. n Proposition 31 (a referendum) either upholds or rejects a California law from 2020 prohibiting the sale of flavored tobacco products. California tax income from the sales of such products would go up if the law is rejected. If the law is upheld, sales of these products will be legal, both at in-person stores and in vending machines. A reliable path to deciding how to vote on the propositions on the California ballot is to follow the money. Ad campaigns are written to persuade voters, not to provide them with accurate information. Knowing which businesses and organizations are financing expensive ad campaigns provides insight about who hopes to benefit from your vote. The content, images and messages in ad campaigns are not necessarily designed to clarify issues addressed in the propositions. The League’s Voter’s Edge (https:// cavotes.org/about-elections/howevaluate-ballot-propositions) is. To learn more, use these links to the California League of Women Voters at https://lwvc.org/ and to League of Women Voters Solano County at https://my.lwv.org/california/ solano-county/voting. Solano County has more than a quarter of a million registered voters. Every Solano voter can and should be able to understand and vote on the propositions on the ballot in next Tuesday’s election. The League of Women Voters Solano County is ready to provide assistance to any and all Solano voters. Marilee Scholl Vacaville

A reminder for those going to polls next week Having just returned from an action-packed adventure in sunny New Jersey, I would be remiss if I failed to share that gas was only $3.49 a pop. (That includes some guy who pumps the petrol for you!) Now, back on the farm, cold hard facts remind us that our Nov. 24 turkey is not alone, there is another one and he’s carving us. Our fearless führer in Sacramento (or is it Napa?) persists in his pharaonic zeal to whomp up a “train to nowhere” that brings new meaning to the term “cost overrun.” The best result we can expect upon completion is that lumberjacks in Nor Cal can hurtle south to Watts for a oncein-a-lifetime shopping spree in record time. In addition, proponents of his ornate express bill it as a solution to our runaway homeless problem. Miles of unattended railway easements will lure the unwashed from our crime-rid-

den cities into a bucolic setting to bask in the sun and nestle under a trestle. Our favorite sommelier, exchanging his KN95 Fauci facade for a doily whilst sipping with sycophants, has courted the favor of millions of undocumented interlopers with unearned largess he’s siphoned off from our exorbitant taxes. And that end is not in sight. Alas, our celebrity governor will probably be re-elected. (His fear of a recent recall mitigated when an amiable press promoted some talking head vice a credible big city mayor as his No. 1 opponent.) Knee-jerk Democrats, teacher unions, SEIU and almost 1,000 irascible death row malcontents, who he has bestowed the “gift of life” upon, will unite and, shoulder to shoulder, shovel his groundswell upon our shoulders. Be that as it may, he does not deserve a mandate from the polls. He’s barely earned a squeaker.

I finally had a much-needed epiphany. It took a lot longer than it should have, frankly. A little voice began whispering to me during the Trump reign, that voice became louder during the Biden reign and now, as a Fairfield resident, it has reached a very high pitch. To wit, there are a lot of old white men with questionable ethics who are making decisions about me and my life and I’m finally done with it. That old cliche about “follow the money” is right on target, isn’t it? Sadly, just look at the things you detest, follow the money, and there’s the answer every time. A lifetime of public service was never what our Founders intended. They didn’t see it as a positive. Instead, they were clear about serving one’s country for a few years and then going home and allowing fresh blood to take over. I’m seeing that fresh blood spring up everywhere across the nation with some very impressive women embodying a lot of it. Yes, it seems it had to get this bad for an awakening to happen. They are young (or younger), new to the game, have different perspectives, strong leadership skills and new energy. May they prevail. I believe strongly that our nation, our state and, yes, even our little town of Fairfield could benefit greatly from a purging of career politicians, that we should entertain new ideas, new energies. Just asking you to think about it. As a starter, I’d like to see what Cat Moy could do here in Fairfield and she needs support on the City Council. If I’m wrong, I will stand corrected. But, what’s happening now is clearly not working – not nationally, state-wise or locally.

This is an exciting time for the Vacaville People’s Forum as we have completed four candidate forums with those who have decided to run for local elected offices. These forums were hosted via Zoom and livestreamed to our Facebook Page. They remain available to watch and inform voters before they mail in or drop off their ballots. We encourage everyone to vote down ballot for the local offices within their districts. This is where your vote has the most impact on your dayto-day life. Here are the links to the videos for the various forums and the dates they were conducted: n Vacaville City Council Forum (Sept. 28): https://fb.watch/ g5_NRym80s. n Vacaville City Mayoral Forum (Sept. 29): https://fb.watch/ g5_OSDhp7P. n Vacaville School District Trustee Area 1 Forum (Oct. 4): https:// fb.watch/g5_PHStEza. n Travis School District Trustee Area 2 Forum (Oct. 6): https:// fb.watch/g5_QDnhfPG. All candidates running for local offices were invited to participate; some declined or were unavailable due to scheduling conflicts; one did not respond to multiple attempts to contact her. The purpose of these forums is for voters to hear what candidates have to say about topics that aren’t typically addressed in other forums, which tend to have a specific focus of interest, such as business or labor. This is the third set of candidate forums our group has organized. The Vacaville People’s Forum does not make candidate endorsements. We strive for impartiality and fairness in these forums and to treat each participant with respect and dignity. During the forums, each candidate was provided ground rules and had an equal opportunity to state their positions on community members’ questions, typically in two-minute increments. The Vacaville People’s Forum’s goal when it was created in 2020 was to create a community-driven candidate forum as a place where Vacaville citizens could ask questions that mattered to them. Our purpose has expanded since then, as we strive to provide places where underrepresented voices can be heard and seen in Vacaville. Be sure to cast your vote on or before Nov. 8.

Experience, integrity: Price for mayor

Follow the money – all of it

As a faith-based leader, I proudly write this letter in support of our mayor, Harry Price. For the past 15 years, I’ve led a local congregation and preached not just about religious values and biblical teachings, but the things we should all strive for in a productive, symbiotic community where we must all coexist and live in harmony to make our city a better place and that we must express kindness to our fellow neighbor, maintaining civility, and showing love and compassion to everyone we encounter. If you’ve had a chance to meet Mayor Price, you know he radiates positivity and kind-heartedness with everyone he meets. No matter who you are, a community leader, a leader in the faith community, someone who is vulnerable because of life’s challenges, someone new, a political friend or foe – Harry Price exudes a warm and gentle spirit that shows you that he’s a mayor for all of us. He checks all the boxes we need in our leaders: a good person, a great listener, a problem-solver and a consensus-builder. That is the leadership everyone in Fairfield deserves and expects from

I keep reading letters to this newspaper asking us to follow the money in political races. But the authors neglect to report contributions to candidates they support which could be as, or more, influential than any others. For example, county supervisor candidate Wanda Williams has received over $100,000 in contributions from out-of-county union activist organizations. That’s over 50% of her funding. Mayor candidate Catherine Moy just received $20,000 from Seeno, a developer organization, last Friday. Fully one-third of her campaign contributions appear to be from Seeno. DR contributors Jack Batson and Marilyn Farley don’t want you to know about these contributions. I wonder why?

How do you make ‘Blockbuster’ for the streamer that helped kill it? ‘Call out Netflix’

Crossword

Yvonne Villarreal LOS ANGELES TIMES

veryone who grew up in the “be kind, rewind” era and attended the film school of the masses – their neighborhood Blockbuster – has a story about roaming the store in search of the titles that left a lasting impression on their cinematic development: “Raging Bull,” “E.T.,” “Do the Right Thing.” Vanessa Ramos, the creator and showrunner of Netflix’s comedic ode to the movie rental franchise, could list what those films were for her if she thought about it long enough. Or she could light up telling you about the time she got her kiddie hands on “Rock-a-Doodle.” “There was a Blockbuster by my house and on Fridays, once my dad got home from work, we would go as a family and we would pick three movies,” Ramos says, recalling the 1991 animated musical comedy about an Elvis Presley-like barnyard rooster. “My brother and I got to pick one that we had to both agree on, but we never agreed on anything except for this movie called ‘Rock-a-Doodle’ that was very clearly based on Elvis, but also a small child’s hallucination at the end. There were other Blockbuster memories, of course, but it’s the one that sticks out – ‘Rock-a-Doodle.’ Childhood at its best.” Fast-forward a few decades and she’s channeled that nostalgia into a series that will inevitably trigger wistfulness in viewers. But her workplace comedy is very much set in the present day, following the lives of employees working at the once-booming franchise’s last operating store in Bend, Oregon. Leading the ragtag group of employees is store manager and analoggeek Timmy Yoon, played by Randall Park, who is doing everything in his power to keep the doors open and his workers employed. “I kind of just sat down and started thinking, ‘What kind of person would be holding onto the last Blockbuster in this day and age?’ And how it would have to have a deeper meaning – someone who can’t quite let go of the past but in a sort of dreamer way,” Ramos says. “I started developing it early fall 2020, so it was in the thick of the pandemic, and I adopted this beagle puppy who was biting me all the time. I was like, ‘OK, this dog hates me, I miss my family. I’m by myself in this one-bedroom apartment.’ And it became a way to work through that.” From her home in Los Angeles, Ramos spoke to the L.A. Times over videoconference about the irony of “Blockbuster’s” streaming home, figuring out her approach to a will-they/won’tthey dynamic and not wanting

Randall Park, left, and Simon Druker in “Blockbuster.” to pigeonhole her storytelling.

Calling out Netflix Under her deal with Universal Television, Ramos first brought the pitch for “Blockbuster” to NBC. When the network ultimately passed, Netflix ordered it to series – a decision with meta-textual undertones, given that the company rose to prominence around the time Blockbuster Video’s grip on home entertainment was collapsing. (Blockbuster went bankrupt in 2010.) The 10-episode sitcom, which also stars Melissa Fumero (“Brooklyn NineNine”), chronicles what it takes for a small business to succeed as the culture shifts. How’s that for irony? I understand the sentiment that this feels like Netflix is wearing the blood of their enemies. But at the same time, Dish [Network] owns the rights and they had sold the rights. Someone was gonna make this and it’s like, why can’t it be me? At least I got to do it in a way where I have this diverse cast. Netflix has given me a lot of freedom. And who’s to say, because I didn’t get that far in NBC’s process, but I do think it would have been a bit more watered down. The one thing that was important to me that Netflix understood was being able to call out Netflix to an extent – like “The Great British Bake-Off” joke. The show opens with Timmy helping a customer who hasn’t visited the store in three years. “I’ve been meaning to come in . . . I’ve been doing Netflix, you know, like, well, everybody. But their algorithm keeps recommending ‘The Great British Bake-Off,’ which is a trigger for me since Amanda left me for a pastry chef in Manchester she met on Facebook.” I think it would have been very weird had we not acknowledged it. I’m just grateful anybody made it cause I was told so many times no one gets a show on their first try. I was already thinking of that podcast “Dead Pilots Society,” for pilots that didn’t get picked up. I was like, “Oh, I can get on that.”

‘It takes a room full of people to break a story’ Ramos cut her teeth in the scripted space writing for cultfavorite workplace comedies “Superstore” and “Brooklyn Nine-Nine.” So when it came time for her to helm her first series, she was ready to assemble her own universe of employee misadventures and daily antics. It is weird to do a thing about a video store in 2022, but it is coming off a time where we felt very isolated. It was easy to use that craving for human connection and incorporate that in the show, like Timmy being able to like look at someone and go like, “Oh, I know what movie you need right now. And you’re gonna have a great weekend.” And it was a little bit of wish fulfillment for me, from being isolated and running out of things to watch, and there is a dog biting my hair anytime I have like a Zoom call. I needed to find an escape. What I love about workplace comedies is that it feels like you still get the family dynamic, but you have characters of different backgrounds with completely different life experiences that can use the emotional tools in their toolkit to help each other through life. Like in Episode 8, “Special Guy Day,” Timmy uses this thing his mom used to do to cheer him up when he was a kid. Also, in a workplace comedy you get to have fun with the different weird customers that come in and the various forces the employees have to band together against to get through the day. As far as coming from a joke-writing background into narrative – my brain had been trained for years to hit the joke and get out. The goal back then was to figure out the most creative way of saying something simple, but it should be short and punchy. Writing an act of a television show felt daunting – much less a whole episode – but I learned on the job. I don’t think I fully understood story breaking until Season 3 of “Superstore.” I think that came from being in the room and See Stream, Page B5

Vanessa Ramos attends the premiere of Netflix’s “Blockbuster” at Netflix Tudum Theater, in Los Angeles, Oct. 27.

Stream From Page B4 watching people like [“Rutherford Falls’”] Sierra Teller Ornelas and [“Blockbuster” writer/ executive producer] Jackie Clarke at the whiteboard placing the different colored cards for different stories, asking great questions about where a character would be coming from emotionally or what their drive was, then seeing how everything laid out and how the stories usually dovetailed at the end. Also, I learned a lot from watching other writers pitch. When I first started, I thought you had to pitch a fully broken-out story as a staff writer, but it takes a room full of people to break a story. I was raised as a writer by the “Superstore” room. [Creator Justin] Spitzer had us sit with the editors when it was our episode and that’s something that not only made me a better writer and on-set producer, it also prepared me for the production side of showrunning maybe more than anything else. As far as “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” I came in midway through Season 6, so it was very much a welloiled machine by then. But they had something in the writers room that I hadn’t seen before: a corkboard with different colored cards and the episodes listed on top so you could see which character had big stories in what episodes, to make sure all of the characters were well served throughout the season.

Making the will-they/ won’t-they romance work for streaming A hallmark of workplace comedies is the workplace romance – and the willthey/won’t-they tension is very much in stock at “Blockbuster.” If Timmy’s first love is movies (and quoting

them), his former high school crush Eliza (Melissa Fumero) is a close, deeply suppressed second. Timmy hired Eliza, who left Harvard after one semester to start a family, as his trusted No. 2. But with Eliza’s marriage experiencing some strain, the possibility of something more is bubbling. Ramos says she turned to the enduring popularity of the Jim and Pam dynamic in NBC’s workplace sitcom “The Office,” as well as the Jake and Amy relationship in “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” for inspiration in crafting Timmy and Eliza’s story. I love figuring out a will they/won’t they. My instinct is always to slow play as much as possible. I went back and looked at other ones. People were like, ‘Well, Jim, and Pam did this.’ But then also, as I did my research, I was like, “’The Office’ had a sixepisode first season and then like 24 [episodes the next season]. And I think in those long orders, you can really build these characters and see who they are independently before they fit together. So that was a little bit of a challenge – how do you effectively do that in 10? Melissa and Randall had such great chemistry out of the gate that it actually wasn’t as tricky. I knew in Season 1 that I wanted them to be like ships in the night. It was just a matter of trying to do that in a satisfying way for the audience, to where it’s like you feel that they are nearly there. I was very aware that in a perfect world, viewers are diving right into the next episode. If I was on a week-to-week thing, I don’t know that I would have started from a place of like, “This is what’s going to happen in the finale.” But with streaming, I think you have to go, “OK, what do we need? What exactly are we building towards and what are the emotional breadcrumbs that we need to drop in the different episodes?”

This open enrollment season, look out for health insurance that seems too good to be true B6

Friday, November 4, 2022 - Daily Republic

Online: dailyrepublic.com/classifieds

K aiser Health News It took nearly a year for Kelly Macauley to realize the health plan she bought while shopping for insurance coverage last October was not, in fact, insurance. Sure, red flags popped up along the way, but when she called to complain, she said, she was met with explanations that sounded reasonable enough and kept her paying her $700 monthly premiums. She said she was told that her medical bills weren’t being paid because the hospital was submitting them incorrectly. That Jericho Share, the nonprofit that sent her a membership card reading “THIS IS NOT INSURANCE,” was just her policy’s underwriter, not the actual insurer. That she hadn’t received a policy welcome packet because the company was saving paper and passing those savings on to customers. Then, this summer, the 62-year-old retired teacher who recently moved from the Philadelphia area to South Carolina, learned her plan had paid only $120 of the bill for her hip replacement last year, leaving her with a balance of over $40,000. She said she’d been assured the procedure would be covered when she was shopping for insurance. But it turns out that the plan she purchased wasn’t insurance at all but rather part of something called a health care sharing ministry. Health care sharing ministries are an alternative to health insurance in which members agree to share medical expenses. They are often faithbased and can be cheaper than traditional insurance, although they don’t necessarily cover their members’ medical bills, according to a Commonwealth Fund report. “That was never, ever mentioned to me,” Macauley said. “I honestly believed I was buying legitimate medical insurance.” Beginning Nov. 1, millions of Americans will purchase health insurance for 2023 in a period known as “open enrollment.” Through the federal and state insurance marketplaces, consumers can shop for Affordable Care Act-compliant health insurance plans and find out whether they qualify for financial assistance. But experts caution that the rush to buy coverage also presents an opportunity for people selling alternative products, such as short-term health plans and health care sharing min-

Health insurance open enrollment is now under way. Consumers need to be wary of scams. istries, that are often cheaper than comprehensive coverage but provide far fewer protections. Though those alternatives are themselves legal, experts caution that misleading marketing can direct consumers shopping for comprehensive coverage into buying health plans that exclude protections for preexisting conditions and leave patients vulnerable to large medical bills. “It’s a prime time to go looking for consumers who are out shopping for insurance and take them down the wrong path,” said JoAnn Volk, co-director of Georgetown University’s Center on Health Insurance Reforms. Volk identified telltale signs of that wrong path: if the person selling you a plan starts asking about your health history, or if they refuse to send you information about the plan altogether, or they agree to provide that information only after you give them your payment information. According to a 2021 secretshopper report on misleading marketing practices, which Volk co-authored, one broker incorrectly cited HIPAA, the law to protect patient privacy, as a reason to not share information about the health plan. “Just made-up stuff,” Volk said. “If you’re committing fraud, there are no boundaries.” In a statement to KHN, Jericho Share spokesperson Mark Hubbard said the organization couldn’t discuss Macauley’s case without her prior written approval but doesn’t tolerate any misrepre-

sentation or unethical conduct on the part of its programs. Nationwide, lawmakers and regulators are taking notice of how health care plans are sold. Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden, a Democrat from Oregon, is investigating complaints about the marketing of Medicare Advantage plans. And in May, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services noted that complaints about marketing practices for Medicare Advantage and Medicare prescription drug benefit plans rose from 15,497 in 2020 to at least 39,617 in 2021. “Scams involving health care have increased exponentially,” said Delaware Insurance Commissioner Trinidad Navarro, who also chairs the anti-fraud task force of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. Multiple factors are causing the increase, Navarro said. Rising health care prices can drive up the cost of regulated health plans, such as those that are compliant with the Affordable Care Act. Higher costs push more Americans to look for cheaper alternatives that usually don’t provide as much coverage and can confuse consumers. Those types of plans proliferated under President Donald Trump’s administration, Navarro said. “I don’t want to sound political,” said Navarro, an elected Democrat, “but the previous presidential administration was really pushing the skinny plans and the alternatives to the ACA, and I don’t necessarily

think that they understood the fraud that was associated with these plans.” Finally, Navarro said, because states are the primary regulators of insurance, tamping down on health care scams can be like playing a game of whack-a-mole – when one state takes action, scammers move to another one to open shop. To fight that tactic, Navarro said, insurance regulators nationwide have created what he described as a “confluence page” to share among themselves information about bad actors. For consumers, Navarro said, regulators are talking about creating a public lookup tool to search for complaints against health insurance brokers, similar to the BrokerCheck tool created by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to monitor stockbrokers. For now, he suggests working with health care navigators, who help consumers enroll in plans through the official health insurance marketplace, healthcare. gov. Also, regulators have been taking legal action on misleading sales tactics. In August, the Federal Trade Commission won $100 million in refunds for consumers it said were “tricked” into sham health plans. Last year, the Massachusetts attorney general won $515,000 in consumer relief from an insurance company accused of deceptive sales practices. Court filings from October indicate the California attorney general is investigating Jericho Share – the health care sharing ministry that Kelly Macauley

said she unwittingly bought a plan from – to see whether it is in compliance with the state’s requirements for health care sharing ministries. Jericho Share’s spokesperson, Hubbard, said the organization is “responding appropriately” to the attorney general’s inquiry. Macauley reached out to KHN after reading a June investigation about consumers who said they thought they were buying insurance only to later learn they had been sold memberships to that health care sharing ministry. Hubbard noted that since that story was published, Jericho Share automatically provides refunds in 72 hours for new consumers requesting one within 30 days of signing up, no longer allows “outsourced marketing for enrollments,” and added a member guide and pop-up on its website stating that Jericho Share is a health care sharing ministry. The company did reply online to Macauley’s bad review on the Better Business Bureau website, asking for more information about her case. She said she supplied that information but never heard back. After Macauley unsuccessfully attempted to cancel her Jericho Share plan with the company directly, she said, she called her credit card company to stop it from approving any more charges by the company. When she described her situation, Macauley said, the sympathetic credit card representative told her, “This is fraud,” and offered to try to get Macauley all of her premiums back. Even if that effort is successful, Macauley will be left with the tens of thousands of dollars of medical charges she incurred while unknowingly uninsured. She is on the market for health insurance again and plans to choose a company she’s heard of before. “Whatever it costs,” Macauley said, “I just want to know I really have insurance.” KHN (Kaiser Health News) is a national newsroom that produces in-depth journalism about health issues. Together with Policy Analysis and Polling, KHN is one of the three major operating programs at KFF (Kaiser Family Foundation). KFF is an endowed nonprofit organization providing information on health issues to the nation.

Bob Baffert is back in Kentucky for full Breeders’ Cup weekend Los Angeles Times The Commonwealth of Kentucky is the selfproclaimed horse racing capital of the world. It has the most famous racetrack, the most iconic race and more than 450 breeding farms. But what it didn’t have the last year and a half was the sport’s most famous trainer onsite watching one of his horses run for a lot of money. That all changes Friday, when the two-day Breeders’ Cup is held at Keeneland Race Course. Bob Baffert is probably better known in Kentucky than he is in his home base of California. Baffert says he loves Kentucky and the people of the state love him back. But he is embroiled in a bitter battle with Churchill Downs Inc., which owns its signature track, as well as Turfway Park and Ellis Park. CDI placed a two-year ban on Baffert after thenKentucky Derby winner Medina Spirit tested positive for a medication that’s not legal on race day.

Matthew Shinn is the quarterback and has completed 13 of 22 passes for 355 yards and four touchdowns, according to statistics provided on MaxPreps.com. Kaiden Merryman has rushed 118 times for 1,086 yards and 15 touchdowns. Vacaville (7-3) went undefeated in the Monticello Empire League and outscored its league opponents 179-31. Quarterback Alex Barkley progressed nicely after stepping in for an injured Brody Fortunati and completed 73 of 125 passes for 895 yards and seven touchdowns.

And that’s why he’s at the Breeders’ Cup, with Cave Rock, the favorite in Friday’s Juvenile for 2-year-olds. After completing a 90-day suspension in early July that was handed down by the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission, Baffert did run two horses in the fall meeting at Keeneland but did not accompany them. Baffert is confident he will be welcomed by the people of Kentucky. Others see it as a split decision. “There are really two strong sides of the fence

and very few people in the middle,” said Fred Cowgill, who has been a television sportscaster in Louisville for 36 years. “The people who support him feel like there are multiple layers to this story and it’s not really understood because it’s so complex. “And there are people on the other side who are convinced what he did was morally and ethically wrong. The Kentucky Derby is a race that is almost holy-like and he did the cardinal sin. They are having a hard time forgiving him for that.” The situation is confusing to all but the most fervent followers of the sport. There are two separate issues, one with the

KHRC, for which Baffert already has served his suspension and the litigation is mostly about getting Medina Spirit’s win restored. The other issue is with Churchill Downs, which as it currently stands won’t allow Baffert to run in next year’s Kentucky Derby or gain qualifying points for the Derby. If Cave Rock finishes in the top five in Friday’s Juvenile, those Derby qualifying points will be vacated. Churchill Downs declined to discuss Baffert’s return to Kentucky and referred to their previous statements on the trainer. “I’ve talked to people who are familiar with both sides,” said Kenny Rice, a lifelong Kentuckian who will be part of NBC’s broadcast team this weekend. “It has gotten a little personal. He’s 70 miles east of the home of the Kentucky Derby and running on the richest weekend of racing. It’s not like he’s been banned from the state. He’s served his suspension and the state racing commission is allowing him to run.”

Cristian Diosdado has rushed for 911 yards and seven touchdowns. Brady Mott has hauled in 23 passes for 523 yards and five touchdowns. Eric Gladney is the Bulldogs’ tackling leader with a hand in 85 total stops with a team-high eight sacks. Liam Flaherty has had a hand in 78 tackles. Vacaville is in the playoffs for the sixth year in a row. The Bulldogs last postseason victory came in 2017. Capital Christian at Will C. Wood Capital Christian (4-5) finished with a losing record but went 4-2 in the Capital Athletic League, finishing third behind Christian Brothers and Vista del Lago. The Cougars lost to Christian Brothers (35-0) and Vista

del Lago (48-0) in their last two games, though they won big against Sacramento, Del Campo and El Camino. Freshman Ryder Trantham threw for the most yards among two quarterbacks, completing 41 of 80 passes for 712 yards and eight touchdowns. He does have nine interceptions. Malaki Taione rushed 94 times for 867 yards and eight touchdowns. Max Clements is the top tackler on defense with a hand in 46 stops. Capital Christian is the No. 7 seed but No. 10 Wood gets the home game because of sanctions placed on the Cougars for participating in football activities during Covid. Wood (5-5) finished 2-3 in the MEL behind Vacaville, Vanden and

Rodriguez. The Wildcats hope to rebound from their three-game losing streak to those three after getting shut out by Vacaville and Rodriguez by 28-0 scores and losing to Vanden 49-21. Quarterback Mason Sayre has completed 85 of 183 passes for 1,102 yards and 13 touchdowns. Sayre does have 10 interceptions. Running back Manny Delatorre has carried the load with 208 carries for 1,112 yards and six touchdowns. Darrius Hickenbottom has 24 receptions for 432 yards and nine touchdowns. Hickenbottom and Jarren Ford key the Wildcats’ defense. Both players have had a hand in 80 tackles.

Sharks defenseman had big setback in injury recovery Tribune Content Agency Markus Nutivaara, who signed as a free agent with the San Jose Sharks in July after two seasons with the Florida Panthers, will see another doctor regarding his nagging lower-body injury and it appears surgery has not been ruled out for the veteran defenseman. Sharks coach David Quinn said Nutivaara had a setback during his recovery after he was injured early in training camp following a Sept. 25 preseason game against the Los Angeles Kings. Nutivaara did not play in another preseason game and remains nowhere close to playing in the regular season, Quinn said. “He’s seeing another

doctor, so we’ll see how that goes,” Quinn said. Nutivaara, 28, was signed to a one-year, $1.5 million contract by the Sharks after he was limited to just one game played last season with the same lower-body injury last season. He’s played 275 games in his career, including 244 with the Columbus Blue Jackets from 2016 to 2020. Nutivaara, who averaged close to 16 minutes of ice time per game with Columbus, began training camp as Erik Karlsson’s defense partner as the Sharks hoped he could recapture the form he showed earlier in his NHL career. Nuitvaara had 21 points in 80 games.
