By Anne Ternus-BellAmy Enterprise staff writer Fifty years ago, Dr. John H. Jones opened the Davis Free Clinic in the basement of the Friends Meeting House on L Street, a place where he and other volunteers provided free medical care and substanceabuse treatment to anyone who needed it, regardless of ability to Overpay. the ensuing decades, demand for those services grew, prompting the clinic to move first into a house on the corner of Fourth and E streets in downtown Davis and later expanding to multiple sites in multiple communities, collec tively known as CommuniCare Health Centers, an official fed erally qualified health center. In Davis, CommuniCare operates out of a clinic next to Sutter Davis Hospi tal, on John Jones Road, and along with clinics in other locations, including in Woodland and West Sacramento, employs hundreds and serves more than 27,000 patients — one in nine Yolo County residents. Not bad for a tiny nonprofit that began with an all-volunteer staff working out of a basement 50 years ago. Now the expansion contin ues.On Tuesday, CommuniCare announced its intention to merge with OLE Health, cre ating one regional non profit community health center willthatnetwork provide services across Yolo, Solano and Napa counties. All told, there will be 17 sites serving more than 71,000 patients with expanded services across the three counties. Currently OLE Health — founded by migrant workers 50 years ago — operates in four locations in Napa County, car ing for 1 in 4 residents, and is Napa’s only nonprofit health center. OLE also has two sites in Fairfield and is the only nongovernmental federally quali fied health center in the Fairfield-Suisun area. Like CommuniCare, OLE Health comprehensiveprovidesprimarycareservicestoanyone,regardlessofinsuranceorabilityto pay. The majority of patients served by both organizations are on Medi-Cal and live at or below 200 percent of the fed eral poverty line.

The only Davisites I've ever seen at the fair over the years are politi cians, an occasional vendor, mem bers of service clubs responsible for selling beer, and Dave and Lea Rosenberg, who support every good thing Yolo County has to offer.Iguess the bottom line is that the residents of the Second Most Educated City in America simply don't "do Woodland." As I've noted before, county fairs, with their emphasis on beauty queens, corn dogs, destruc tion derbies, deep-fried Snickers bars, tractor pulls and raising farm animals for slaughter, are not the kind of activity the average Davisite will brag about to their neighbors.Thenagain, every year the Yolo County Fair puts together one of those small, old-fashioned family affairs that routinely hits a home run for five consecutive nights in the dog days of August. Best of all, admission has always been free, so you can walk around, see the sights, tour the exhibit buildings, look at the Blue Ribbon baked goods and not spend a dime. Long ago the fair revolved around the mighty sugar beet, which for years was the leading cash crop in the county. The fair even featured a Sugar Beet Queen, but no more. Now Yolo County is all about nuts — almonds, wal nuts, pistachios and the occasional politician — even if we do still grow thousands of truckloads of red, ripe tomatoes. If you've never seen a sugar beet, it is not a thing of beauty. It looks like a giant brown radish about three times the size of a rus set potato. We used to have a Speckel's sugar plant between here and Woodland where the beets were processed, but when it closed, sugar beet production in this area pretty much ended. I'd be shocked to see even a single sugar beet field left in Yolo HCounty.

CHEAP THRILLS ... Having grown up in Davis and attended the Yolo County Fair nearly every year since I was too small to ride the ferris wheel, I've never understood why so few of my fellow Davisites are willing to take the short drive to Wood land to enjoy all the fair has to offer.After all, the fair — which opens today and runs through Sunday — is all about agriculture and the incredible bounty of crops our county's farmers and laborers pro duce, and Davis is one of those towns that routinely turns down development projects if they will deplete our supply of prime ag land. There's nothing like walking through one of the fair's ag build ings and viewing the incredible variety of crops we grow here.

Don’t wait until you’re thirsty. n During the hottest parts of the day, keep physical activities to a minimum and stay indoors in air-condition ing and out of the sun. n Use fans as needed. n Use cool compresses, misting, showers and baths to stay cool. n Avoid hot foods and heavy meals — they add heat to the body. n Dress in lightweight, loose-fitting clothing. Use a hat and sunscreen as needed. n Drink fruit juice or a sports beverage to replace salts and minerals lost during heavy sweating. — Reach Anne TernusBellamy at Followdavisenterprise.net.aternus@heronTwitter at @ATernusBellamy.
OLY GUACAMOLE ... Of all the treats at the Yolo County Fair, the "World Famous Holy Rosary Tacos" are at the top of the list. Volunteers at the Catholic parish in Woodland have been known to produce as many as 40,000 tacos for the fair's five-day run. Are they the best tacos in the world? They have my vote. Well seasoned, full of fresh tomatoes and ground beef, low in price and high in flavor. All the ingredients working together to produce the best-selling food at the fair year after year after year. In fact, while most food booths are clustered in one area, the Holy Rosary taco stand occupies all of Rotary Park, with abundant seat ing in the shade. They are that popular. You do not have to be Catholic and you do not have to know how to pray the Rosary to partake.Theline is always long, but vol unteers come out to take your order and things move very, very quickly, so don't be deterred. One year not so long ago, with an extended family of 10 along for the thrills, I was designated to stand in line while the rest of our party grabbed a seat at the table. I did the math and ordered 20 tacos. Five minutes later I was back in line ordering 20 more tacos. Even the vegetarians in our party had become carnivores that night.

On Friday, Aug. 12, 2022, Glen Ralph Baxter, loving and devoted husband and father, passed away peace fully in his home in Davis at the age of 85. Glen was born on July 4, 1937, in Norwood, Colo., to Maurice and Naomi (Aus mus) Baxter. He served in the United State Marine Corps Reserve and the United States Army. In April 1966 he married Shirley J. Sperinde and together they raised two sons, Patrick and Gregory, and one daughter, Kim berly. He worked at UC Davis for 44 years, first as a farm hand at vegetable crops and then as a steam fitter in physical plant (facilities), retiring in 1996. Glen enjoyed being active, productive, and helpful, and he always had a kind word and cheerful smile for everyone. He sup ported and often volun teered to help in all the sport, social, and artistic pursuits of his children. He knew a little bit about nearly everything mechani cal or structural and was a master at repairing any thing, often with spare parts and odds and ends that he’d collected through the years “just in case.” He spent countless hours working in his yard, garden and house, as well as help ing his parents, in-laws and friends whenever and wherever there was work to be done. He also gave his time and talents to chari table organizations like Craftsmen for Christ and Meals on Wheels. As his children grew older and he found spare time he tried his hand at hobbies like photography and skiing, although eventually golf became his favorite leisure pastime. He cared less about the score than he did about the exercise and camaraderie of his fellow players, particu larly the group of physical plant friends and co-workers who enjoyed frequent local games and regular Lake Tahoe golf excursions. He loved to read and had a thirst for knowledge, particularly history and literature. He enjoyed poetry and for years composed

By Anne Ternus-BellAmy Enterprise staff writer Yolo County has its first con firmed case of monkeypox (now known as MPX), making the county the 33rd local jurisdiction in California to report a case. The United States has identified 11,890 cases to date, 1,945 of which are in “GivenCalifornia.therecent detection of MPX cases in many nearby coun ties, it is not surprising that Yolo County has now identified its first case of MPX,” said Yolo County Health Officer Dr. Aimee Sisson. “The MPX virus can infect any one,” she said. “The overall risk level is currently low, but it is important for everybody to under stand how the virus spreads and how to protect against infection. MPX virus is typically spread through direct contact with infec tious sores, often through sex. Many of the cases in the current outbreak have occurred in men who have sex with men, and members of these communi ties are especially advised to take steps to protect themselves against infection.” MPX is an infectious disease spread by close physical contact with someone who has symptoms or by touching contaminated items like clothing and bedding. MPX can also be spread through respira tory secretions during prolonged face-to-face interactions with an infected person. MPX is not spread through casual conversations or by walking past someone with MPX, the county Infectionreported.mightstart with symp toms like the flu, including fever, low energy, swollen lymph nodes and general body aches. Within one to three days (sometimes lon ger) after the appearance of fever, the individual can develop a rash or sores.The sores, which will go through several stages, including blisters, pustules, and scabs, before healing, may be painful or itchy. The rash or sores may be located on or near the genitals or anus, but could also be on the hands, feet, chest or face. People with MPX may experi ence all or only a few of these symptoms, although nearly all people with MPX will get the rash or sores. It can take several weeks for all sores to heal and the scabs to fall off, at which point the person is no longer infectious. In California, up to 3 percent of individuals infected with MPX have been hos pitalized during the current out break.Sisson noted that MPX infection can be prevented by talking to sex ual partners about any recent ill ness or sores and by avoiding close contact, including sex, with people who have sores or rashes. Anyone experiencing symptoms consistent with MPX should con tact their healthcare provider for testing and treatment. Antiviral treatments are available and vac cines are available for close con tacts of infected persons, including their sexual partners.

NIH renews ‘knockout mouse’ funding
By CAleB HAmpTon Enterprise staff writer The National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded UC Davis over $12 million for the third and final fiveyear phase of the Knockout Mouse Phenotype Project, or KOMP2, a research project seeking to under stand the genetic bases for diseases in humans and animals. UC Davis is the lead institution for the research.“Knockout” mice are bred in laboratories with certain genes “knocked out,” allowing scientists to observe the role certain genes play in diseases. The objective of the final phase of the project is to “produce and phenotype hundreds of knockout mouse models for genes with little to no known function,” UC Davis said this week in a news release.The UC Davis Mouse Biology Programs has developed mouse models of human and animal diseases for the past 24 years to pur sue groundbreaking research. For instance, knockout mice developed at UC Davis helped identify genes related to eye disease and autism spectrum disor der.While UC Davis is the lead organization for phase three of the KOMP2 pro gram, an international consortium of institutions is conducting the research. Those institutions include The Centre for Phenoge nomics in Toronto, the Jackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine, and a group led by Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. All of these institutions will continue to participate in the International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium (IMPC), which includes 21 institutions in 15 countries. So far, the consortium has produced and studied more than 8,000 knockout mouse lines with models for human diseases like Parkinson’s disease and cancer.Currently, there are gene knockout mice for about 75% of the corresponding genes in the human genome, according to Kent Lloyd, principal investiga tor for KOMP2, professor in the Department of Sur gery in the UC Davis School of Medicine and director of the UC Davis Mouse Biology Program. Over the next five years, the IMPC will aim to increase that to close to 100%. “As the flagship project in the NIH KOMP2 pro gram, UC Davis has built a solid reputation of provid ing innovative approaches and next-generation strate gies to catalyze and acceler ate the development of genetically altered mouse models for biomedical research,” Lloyd said. “Our team is excited to continue our participation and leadership in the KOMP2 and IMPC to assist researchers, transla tional investigators and clinician scientists identify, access and use the most appropriate mouse models to study functional genom ics in health and disease,” heThecontinued.NIHbegan funding the Knockout Mouse Proj ect in 2006.

BALLOT: School board candidates run unopposed WCC professor, students study biodiversity of native bees
LocalTHE DAVIS ENTERPRISE WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 17, 2022 A5 the November ballot. There were three seats on the Davis school board up for grabs, but when the filing deadline came and went on Friday, only one candidate had filed in each of the three areas — Hiram Jack son in Area 1; incumbent Joe DiNunzio in Area 3; and Eliza beth Moon in Area 4. Under California elections code, when the number of can didates who file for office equals the number of open positions, there is no election and the candidates who filed by the end of the nomination period will be appointed in lieu of Thuselection.Jackson, DiNunzio and Moon will join the school board for four-year terms but will not be on the November ballot, according to the Yolo County Elections Office. They will join Lea Darrah and Betsy Hyder who were elected in 2020 to represent Areas 2 and 5 respectively.Andwhilethere won’t be any contested races for school board, Davis voters will see contested races for state and federal office on the November ballot along with the City Council races in Districts 1 and 4. For the U.S. House of Repre sentatives, voters in District 4 (which includes Davis), will choose between incumbent Rep. Mike Thompson, D-Napa, and Republican challenger Matt Brock of Vacaville.Rep. John Garamendi, D-Walnut Grove, previously represented Davis in Congress, but with district lines redrawn following the 2020 Census, he no longer will. For the state Assembly, Davis voters will choose between incumbent Assembly woman Cecilia Aguiar-Curry, D-Winters, and Republican Bryan Pritchard of Ruther ford.Elsewhere in Yolo County, there are a handful of con tested races on the ballot, including for the Winters and West Sacramento city councils. Two seats on the Woodland City Council are up in Novem ber, but with only one candi date filing for each of them — incumbents Rich Lans burgh and Tania GarciaCadena — there will be no election involved there.
Gillespie and his stu dents travelled to College of the Canyon on Aug. 7 to participate in a one-day conference with the other colleges to share findings and learn from one another about the challenges of col lecting and identifying bees.Lindquist and Ward summarized the findings at Woodland Community College, while Gillespie shared his knowledge of techniques for photograph ing bees for purposes of identification.“Whilethe funding for this study has expired, it is hoped that new funding for a five-year study of native bees will be awarded in the coming year,” Gillespie stated. He added that he looks forward to resuming the work and cooperating with a growing network of California community col leges in using this study to provide students the opportunity to participate in original scientific research with real-world applications.”
Over the spring and summer of 2022, college professors participated in a National Science Founda tion-funded study to look at the diversity of native bee species in California. The project, known as The Campus as a Living Lab, invited professors and students from community colleges across the state — including those from Woodland Community College — to engage in the work of learning how to collect, preserve, and iden tify native bees in an effort to document their diversity and lay a foundation for assessing the level of biodi versity of this important group of insects. WCC was one of 10 col leges selected to partici pate. Students and professors were awarded stipends for their work on theTheproject.principal investiga tor was Jeannie Chari of College of the Canyons, with co-principal investiga tors Patricia Palavecino of Antelope Valley College and Jaime Pawelek of the Essig Museum of Entomol ogy.The work at Woodland Community College started in May 2022, and contin ued through July. Sites on the WCC main campus were selected, and students attempted to col lect as many examples of native bees (excluding the non-native European honey bees used extensively to pollinate regional crops and produce commercial honey) as they could locate. Later, the students made collections from sites off campus for comparative purposes.Inall,31 bees were col lected and identified, rep resenting three bee families, five genera and at least 11 Woodlandspecies.College Biol ogy Professor Brian Gil lespie participated in the study, along with students Elizabeth Fred ricks, Travis Lindquist and McKenna Ward. “The most significant finding was that there was a greater diversity of native bees in locations where flowers were specifically selected to encourage insect pollinators, bees included,” explained Gillespie. “This finding has great signifi cance for the college when considering options for landscaping on the cam pus, as it represents an opportunity for the college to make a tangible contri bution to promoting biodi versity.”
Birds, bats and 127 fledglings Want a isnaturedelightfulappthatfreeandcan educate and pleasure you each day? In the past, I told you about the Merlin Bird ID by Cornell Lab which is the leading app for birds around the world. You can use it on a computer, an iPhone or an Android. You identify birds you see by answering a few simple questions; the size of your bird, main colors, what it was doing — and you have a choice of answers. Then it asks, Is this your bird? And if it is not, you scroll some more and usually find the bird you saw, a bit of information and can hear its call. This summer, I’ve been having fun with Merlin Sound ID. I turn it on and lay my iPhone down for perhaps 10 minutes and watch what it records. It instantly shows the sound waves and tells me who is making that call. I turned it on as I walked into a downtown Portland City park and I had 10 different species in 5 minutes. It gets me looking more closely for those birds. And I’m learning how to iden tify more calls than ever before.Idid a lot of traveling this summer. Bike tour in Northern California out of Etna. Portland, Oregon to visit our son. A bike tour starting in Spokane, Wash., on a rail-to-trail trip through Idaho to Montana. Hiking in Alaska with Rhodes Scholar. Camping in the High Sierras. And then to a cottage on Lake Michi gan. Every place became more exciting by using the Merlin app and finding more birds than I’d spot on my own. Plus, you are contributing to citizen sci ence when you confirm that yes, that is my bird. Especially with our climate changing, bird migration patterns are changing. If you are recording birds in your yard, try to notice when they come. Usually, in the early morn ing, when there is light, mid-day and then before dark. Otherwise, you may hear very little. A feeder will help draw them. Birds all seem to come at the same time and then there is little for several hours. Birds are really drawn to water. A classic round planter saucer with water and a rock in the middle will delight them. Empty and replace the water every five days. It takes seven to 10 days for a mos quito to mature from egg to adult so you will not be doing mosquito breeding as long as you change that water.You can also use the Merlin to identify birds in a photo and save birds to your life list. And you can explore lists of birds near you. Merlin can recognize the sounds of 400 species. Have you watched the colony of migratory bats that live under the Yolo Causeway fly out at night? There are a quarter-mil lion of them nesting in the expansion joints. When you see them fly out, it’s something you will always remember, that and the entertaining talk that is delivered by Corky Quirk, who holds and introduces you to a close up of the bats.The talks are now given as 45 minute virtual zoom presentations at specific times and when you regis ter for the bat event, you will be given a link to the talk. There are many bat events for all ages — bathouse building workshop, bats and crafts. The bat walk is really a car proces sion out into the Yolo Causeway so it is COVIDsafe. Then you park and get out. If you are dis abled, you can stay in your car.I remember how aston ished I was to learn that these were female bats going out to hunt and that they would find their babies not by echolocation but by the sound each baby bat makes. Visit the Yolo Basin website at yolo basin.org/bats2022 for information about events. The population of North American birds has dropped nearly 30% since 1970. Three billion birds gone. But in Davis we are having great success in birthing more birds with ourInnestboxes.thenestboxes in North Davis alone, which stretch from the Vets Memorial Center to the Northstar Pond, five boxes along the Uplands Habitat on F and Anderson, and boxes in the North Davis Channel Trail — 122 fledg lings, mostly western blue birds but a smattering of tree swallows.

By Mike BuSh Enterprise sports editor DIXON — There are plenty of linemen on this year’s Davis High football team.The linemen’s mobility in the trenches helped contain opposing linemen Friday during the Under the Lights jamboree, which the Dixon High football pro gram hosted at John Knight Middle School. The jamboree was moved to the middle school’s foot ball field, which was Dixon High’s old football field, because the Dixon Unified School District is preparing Dixon High’s Finney Field for the Rams’ home opener against Winters in a nonleague game on Friday, Aug. 26, according to the Dixon High football Face book page. Dixon opens the season at Union Mine, also a non-league game, on Thursday.Davis scrimmaged against host Dixon, plus Del Campo and Delhi. Combined with the Blue Devils’ rushing attack, head coach Nick Garratt was pleased with his team’s per formance for the most part. “Moments of great tack ling, blocking and taking care of the ball and other times not so great,” said Garratt of Friday’s jambo ree. “The offense and defense performed as one might, expect at an opening scrimmage.”Garrattpointed out one scene from the jamboree he liked against Del Campo. “The ending of the scrimmage was particularly exciting as we scored on the opening play by a run by Cole Broussard,” Garratt said. “The energy from the players and crowd was great under the lights.” Davis’ Cole Broussard recovered the fumble against the Cougars. Blue Devil running backs Jude Vaughn and Prince Flores carried the bulk of the running game in the jamboree.“JudeVaughn ran very well as well as did Prince Flores,” said Garratt of the duo. “(The offensive) line worked as unit make some greatBlueblocks.Devil quarterback Braulio Acevedo, only a sophomore, made great reads and kept a good tempo of the offense, Gar rattOnnoted.defense, Sonny Huit ron and CJ Millican, along with Giovanni Ruiz, swarmed to the ball mak ing tackles as well as being a factor in the passing game.Sawyer Schoen, a defen sive back who is also the Blue Devils’ other quarterback, showed he can isolate wide receivers, Garratt said. The Blue Devils had to quickly adjust to the mid dle school’s ankle-high grass in patches. “We spoke about the con ditions of the field prior to arriving and adjusted our pregame schedule in order to make sure players had time to tape and take care of equipment for this type (of) field,” Garratt said. Garratt was glad that the Blue Devils’ scrimmage was on the “Theroad.scrimmage was a great environment and a very good dress rehearsal for an away game,” Garratt said. “There are many wrinkles we need to work out in terms of travel and scheduling at away games and this scrimmage gave us thisDavisopportunity.”opensthe regular season hosting Vacaville at Ron and Mary Brown Sta dium on Friday.

Enterprise staff When United Airlines flight 336 departed San Francisco International Airport on Monday morning, the UC Davis men’s basketball team will be taking an adventure of a lifetime.TheAggies are bound for a 10-day European tour from Aug. 15-25, which will see them visit Italy and Croatia while playing four games against professional European teams. The team will chronicle the trip on its Twitter and Instagram accounts. UCD will face Italian team Orange1 Basket Bassano on Thursday and Croatian teams KK Kas tela on Saturday, KK Alkar Sinj on Sunday and KK Dubrovnik on Wednesday, Aug. 24, as well as 10 extra practices. In between basketball, the Aggies have an itiner ary with plenty of time earmarked for tours, day trips, and opportunities to experience new cul tures.“We’ve gone through a lot the last two years, and I was really proud of how these guys handled just a wave of adversity,” UCD head coach Jim Les said. “They kept a great atti tude about themselves, they stayed together, and they kept working. This is the culmination and what I think is a great reward for what they had to endure.“Many of our guys haven’t been out of the United States and to have this opportunity to experi ence new cultures and new people and a different way of life across the world is just a great experience I’m happy they’re getting to partake in after what they’ve had to endure the last couple years.” College basketball gen erally doesn’t allow play ers to study abroad due to the length of the season, offseason time commit ment and academic obli gations.

From a basketball per spective, the trip couldn’t come at a better time for Les’ Aggies. UCD features eight returners and will be integrating seven new comers.“There isn’t a better time in my opinion,” Les said. “Not only will it be great team and culture building off the floor but also a great opportunity to get a jump start on the season this summer with basically a brand-new team.”Allof the teams UCD will face are in the middle of training camps, giving the Aggies a chance to face live game situations they wouldn’t otherwise at this time of year. “We’re getting there at a really good time,” Les added. “Basketball has become a global game and we’ve seen it in the NBA with all the Euro pean players that are making an impact. We get a chance to go in their backyard and play some really good teams and experienced players. It’ll be a really good competi tive test for us.” Les also pointed to the shorter 24 second shot clock, which will force the Aggies to pressure and play with pace. Two things Les sees happening with the simplified, defense-first system UCD has prioritized in the off season.“Ilike the size and physicality of our team,” Les said. “We’ve added size, athleticism, and we’ve added skill. Now it’s just a matter of meshing together. I really like the makeup of this team and I’m excited to see how they’re going to do in this European setting.”

By Madilynn Sepp Enterprise correspondent WEST SACRAMENTO — The Sacramento River Cats took game one of the six-game series against the Las Vegas Aviators, which started Monday at Sutter Health Park. The River Cats pitching staff proved dominant, which allowed only one earned run in a 4-2 win over the Avia tors.River Cats catcher Andrew Knapp credits this success to “the pitchers’ abil ity to throw strikes and keeping batters on their toes all night.” Knapp had a hot night of his own, leading the River Cats (49-63) offense with two doubles and two RBI’s, bring ing in his 26th RBI on the year. The Aviators (55-57) scored their first unearned run off of righty WeiChieh Huang right off the bat in the first inning. Jason Vosler and Knapp strung together back-to-back doubles to tie the game at 1-1. Four scoreless innings passed before the River Cats got back on the score board. Vosler scored on a double hit by Knapp, bringing the River Cats ahead 2-1 in the bottom of the sixth. Lefty Ben Bowden shut the Aviators down in the top of the seventh, allowing only one hit.

Several years ago, when I lived in Davis, I was a member of the DavisUman Sister City Project. Uman is a city in Ukraine, south of Kyiv, that is in some respects similar to Davis — both towns had agriculture universities and beautiful parks and were about the same size, roughly 60,000. Through my participation with this group, I traveled to Ukraine several times in the early 2000s and stayed with our interpreter and visited her family. On another occasion, 10 women from Uman came to Davis on a program paid for by the U.S. State Depart ment. The idea was that they would study democracy and run for a local office when they got home. I’m not sure any of them did. But I got to know some lovely people in Ukraine including the Stas, the nephew of our translator. Stas Potorocha and his wife, Natasha, and their universityage son, Mitya, live in Kyiv on the top floor of a highrise (even though the apartment number is 213). Stas came to our home in Allenspark, Colo., in the summer of 2016 to help us build a bunkhouse. He loved Colorado and took

By Andrew Ayres And CAitlin Peterson Special to CalMatters The San Joaquin Valley is California’s largest agricultural region, but it’s fac ing an uncertain future. A combination of persistent drought and the rollout of Cali fornia’s Sustainable Groundwater Manage ment Act will increase regional water scarcity in the coming decades. Water scar city will have a major effect on land use: At least half a million acres are projected to come out of irrigated production in the San Joaquin Valley by 2040. This raises a thorny question: What hap pens to all this newly fallowed land? With careful planning, research and development, and incentive programs, San Joaquin Valley residents can avoid the worst consequences of land fallowing — and per haps even improve some environmental and economicWithoutconditions.carefulplanning, a host of nega tive outcomes could result. Haphazard fallowing could lead to increased dust, weeds, pests and soil degra dation. San Joaquin Valley residents already suffer from some of the worst air quality in the nation, and the valley’s dust is not innocuous: Apart from negative health risks — such as asthma and cardiovascular harm — posed by coarse and fine particulates, the dust carries a fungus that causes Valley fever, a dangerous infection that’s been increasing in recent years. Rural communi ties may be especially at risk. And this is to say nothing of the other costs associated with fallowing, as once-reliable jobs disap pear along with the irrigation. Valley residents can craft something bet ter if they collectively work to ease the tran sition to a drier San Joaquin Valley. It will take concerted effort, but new research points a way forward. As part of a larger project exploring farm land transitions in the valley, we conducted research on air quality and water-limited cropping. We took a close look at how to safely fallow land in a way that protects valley residents — and we’ve identified some best practices, as well as areas for further study. First, we found that there may be value in exploring an under-researched alternative to fallowing: water-limited cropping. Agricul tural operations and wind erosion are two of the largest sources of dust in the valley, and maintaining vegetative cover is one of the simplest and most cost-effective ways to rein in dust emissions from idled landscapes. “Dryland” crops, which rely solely on win ter rainfall and soil moisture, were once common in the valley. We found, however, that a return to true dryland cropping is unlikely to be successful in the current envi ronment: Highly variable rainfall and low water availability make production very risky in all but the wettest corners of the val ley, and profit potential is low. We also found that adding very small amounts of irrigation — four to eight inches on average per year — can make a huge dif ference in establishing grain crops. Once established, these “water-limited” crops can provide multiple benefits, tamping down dust, improving soil quality, creating surro gate wildlife habitat, and keeping agricul tural land productive. While much more research is needed on the long-term sustainability of these crop ping systems, our preliminary work suggests that water-limited crops could be profitable under some scenarios — and provide a ben eficial land use alternative to fallowing. In areas where water-limited cropping may not be possible, it’s important to take another tack. First, we must identify areas most at risk of increased dust emissions and employ agricultural management practices to minimize these risks. Coordinated man agement of these lands to establish longterm vegetative cover — or other measures to control dust — will be paramount. Sustained, reliable funding is key. Local funding through groundwater sustainability agencies, state funding through the regional air district, and federal funding through existing conservation and environmental incentive programs are promising ways to sustain proactive dust management and land management alternatives. — Andrew Ayres is a research fellow of the Public Policy Institute of California Water Policy Center.

hundreds of photos, including at the rodeo in Estes Park. From my visits to Ukraine and discussions with Stas, I knew there was no love lost between Ukraine and Russia. Even 20 years ago there were signs posted in Ukrainian towns saying “We speak Ukrainian only, not Russian.” So when Russia invaded Ukraine in February, my hus band and I were stricken and spent those first few weeks watching the news closely. I was aware that there is a shipping company that spe cializes in transport to East ern Europe, including Ukraine. When I phoned Meest (1-800-288-9949) in those early days of the war, they weren’t sure how or if packages would get through. But since then we have been sending about one box a month. None have been lost. All have been delivered directly to the door of my friend Stas’ apartment. I can only imagine the thousands of boxes of food and goods that have been sent to Ukraine by American and European friends. The mili tary is siphoning off many items commonly found in stores. So this is what we have sent: rice, beans, canned meats, summer and dried sau sages, trail mix, nuts, coffee (instant and ground), tea, chocolate of all kinds, Nutella, peanut butter, dried vegeta bles, dried cheese, dried but ter, dried eggs, bags of candy, aspirin, antiseptic creams, socks, hand warmers and bat tery packs with solar panels so people can charge their phones when the electricity goes out. We also sent solar flashlights, tea candles, sweat shirts, summer clothes and winter clothes. Also, a 3X T-shirt that “ALLENSPARK.”said:Thenwefound out that our friends live next door to a spe cial school for deaf children and we started sending small stuffed animals plus cray ons, coloring books and school supplies. Great success! Both Stas and Natasha are English teachers who con tinue to work with their stu dents in person and online. Mitya plays the guitar so we sent him some music books, an important diver sion.Food is expensive and sometimes the shops don’t have much to offer, and cer tainly not much variety. Mitya said: “(You sent) a lot of food which was absolutely delicious and interesting because there were some things you wouldn’t see in our stores.”AllUkrainians who have access to even the smallest plot of land grow vegetables to can and eat through the win ter. And now Natasha has dried vegetables for cooking, which she uses daily. “We use and share with oth ers everything you send,” she said.How does Mitya feel about his“Forfuture?the first time in many years I don’t know what my future will be like,” he wrote to us. “Sometimes it is hard to plan your next day. But I am 100 percent sure that the vic tory will be ours, thus, my future shall be bright.” To send packages to this extended family and commu nity, contact Meest online at www.meest.com or call 1-800288-9949. It is a little cum bersome, as Meest has to mail forms to you and you have to fill out the forms and take your boxes to FedEx for ship ping. But do it once and the next time it will be simple.

By Julie Cross Special to The Enterprise In May 2007, which is an astonishingly long time ago, I wrote a column on learning to cook. I believe that was just about the time that a very ear nest UCD student assured me that her event would be a success because “We’re promoting it on Facebook!” and then had to explain Facebook to me, which would account for my failure to include a single reference to elec tronic resources. I’ve updated that for this version. If you can manage it, learning to cook from another person is best. With any luck, there’s someone in your life who genu inely likes to cook and would be willing (possibly even eager) to teach you a few things. If you have that opportunity, seize it! Some things are much easier to learn in a hands-on setting. It takes pages of text to describe how the onions should smell when they’re caramelized, or what pizza dough feels like when it’s been kneaded just enough, both cues that you can learn instantly if you’re working with an experienced cook. This is absolutely the best way to learn family recipes, which I promise you will want to know sometime in the future. You can, of course, learn to cook as you go along — my col lege roommate learned quite a bit of cooking by waiting for my mom to call (on our single land line, because 1982) and then asking her what to do. In fact, she was fairly famous on our dorm floor for having actually called my mom up to find out how to bake a potato, a recipe the rest of us felt was pretty well lined out in the name of the dish. To be fair, the internet as we know it did not exist in 1982. I got my first computer about seven years later, and even then the recipe resources would have pretty much been limited to ask ing someone’s mom on Prodigy how to bake a potato. There are now thousands of Interweb resources available to you for cooking, some of which are even useful. It’s a good idea to develop a short list of sites that work with your learning style, offer recipes you actually want to cook, and produce reli able results.
Enterprise staff Emilia Z. García of Davis graduated with a bachelor’s degree in music with St. Olaf College’s Class of 2022. St. Olaf’s 300-acre cam pus is in Northfield, Minn., approximately 40 miles south of the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. One of the nation’s leading liberal arts colleges, St. Olaf challenges students to excel, examine faith and values, and explore meaningful vocation in an inclusive, globally engaged community nourished by Lutheran tradition.
Specifically, the article is about the effect of the drought on the Lake Powell and Lake Mead res ervoirs and their ability to pro vide water and electricity to tens of millions of people. According to the article, the region is “near ing an environmental point of no return” and officials are sound ing the alarm that, “the moment of truth is here for everyone. “ So, what to do? It has been clear for years that the “50 Things You Can do to Fight Cli mate Change” has been a mostly empty mantra. For one thing, “climate change” has morphed to “climate crisis” has morphed to “climate emergency.” For another, the focus has rightly turned away from an emphasis on individual action to what gov ernments and businesses can/ must do to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Solutions have to scale to the problem. This is not to say that smaller actions aren’t important, or welcome, and that brings me to Las Vegas. The Hill reports that the Clark County officials, wor ried about the very serious drought and alarming depletion of the Lake Mead reservoir, have introduced an ordinance to limit the size of new swimming pools. I had to read the lead paragraph three times before deciding the story was not a joke. The news letter, citing AP as the source, reports that “Clark County offi cials will be capping the dimen sions of swimming pools at single-family homes at 600 square feet, about the size of a three-car garage.” “There are currently more than 200,000 residential pools in the region, with about 1,300 added annually. Having a pool in Las Vegas is like having a second car. It’s that common.” It appears the government officials are tackling this climate emergency head on. It does make one won der whether this is strange or fiction.Moving on, the New York Times devotes an entire section of its Tuesday edition to science. Mostly this consists of long-form articles that delve into aspects of technology relevant to subjects from Astronomy to Zoology. In addition, there are a few very short items, one of which in the June 21st edition was entitled, “Styrofoam as a Snack Food? Superworms Just Pack It In.” The terrifying problem of the spread of plastic across the planet has spurred scientists to experiment with all kinds of ways to destroy plastics. I men tioned a couple of these in the July 6th edition of this column, including a process to create a plant-based coating that works like shrink wrap, and a mini robot that can roam rivers and creeks harvesting microplastics. Now along comes the “larvae of the darkling beetle, nicknamed superworms because of their size.”Scientists found that these two-inch long creatures will eat polystyrene, also known as Sty rofoam. This is really good news; Styrofoam is incredibly longlived in the environment. But, hold your horses. It turns out it’s not really the creature itself, the real hero is an as yet unidentified microbe resident in the crea ture’s gut. Scientists know this because if fed antibiotics they lose the ability to consume Sty rofoam.Mealworms can also consume Styrofoam and the hunt is on for what resides in the microbiome of these creatures that is respon sible for this potentially very use ful talent in dealing with Styrofoam. Strange? Yes, and so far, probably closer to fiction than fact, but so much of our rescue from the assault of plastic seems focused on microbes such as Lastly,these. an article from the New York Times last month, before Joe Manchin had his epiphany, pulled together examples of what state and local governments are doing in the absence of action by the federal government here and in other countries that seem to be mostly making the problem worse by spewing hot air into the atmosphere.Oddly,the article begins with a very small example of what individuals can do by showcas ing a liquor store in Minnesota that uses solar power to cool its beer. But further into the article, the panels on the liquor store roof are only a part of the story.

Reality, stranger than fiction?
Learning the ropes in hands-on setting

■ All Recipes has a very wide range of pretty solid recipes, and a large base of users who seem to spend most of their time substi tuting ingredients into those rec ipes. It’s the equivalent of asking a dozen of your friends for a tamale casserole recipe and lis tening to them argue. You can also learn to cook from cookbooks. One of the best beginner’s books is “Joy of Cook ing,” because it’s very reliable in instructions and very, very broad in the type of recipes it has. For people who love science, and want to know why recipes work, Alton Brown’s “I’m Just Here For the Food” is an excellent choice. And generations of cooks learned to cook out of the redand-white-checked “Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book,” which has good illustra tions and many variations on basicLiterallyrecipes.thousands of cook book choices are available at the Yolo County Library; you can usually get your own copies for a dollar or two at the SPCA Thrift store, Logos Books or the library sale. Once you’ve found your cookbook, read it through. Go ahead and mark recipes that sound interesting to you as you go, but what you’re really read ing for is technique and struc ture. As you see various procedures applied in very dif ferent recipes, you’ll begin to get a sense of what’s actually going on.However you get it, start by reading the recipe. Everyone tells you to do that, of course, and hardly anyone does. Look up words or techniques that are unfamiliar to you. Another thing that everyone tells you to do is “assemble the ingredients.” Those of us who have difficulty with authority invariably skip this step, and then have to run to the store for baking powder. While you don’t have to emulate the cooking shows by measuring out every thing you need into matching ceramic bowls, do check the pan try before you cream the butter. Once you have the instructions and ingredients, cooking is merely a matter of applying one to the other. Do take notes, either in the cookbook or in a notebook that lives with your cookbooks, for the next time you make the same recipe. You might note where the instructions are wrong or more complicated than they have to be, or ingredient changes that you might like, or simply “don’t make this again.” After you’ve learned the basics, you get to the fun part of cooking — making things up. If you know how to construct a basic sauce, for instance, you can invent eleventy-seven different types of pasta based on (a) what you think might taste good and (b) what’s languishing in the fridge. Clearly some of those pas tas will be better than others — but all of them will be your own creation!Agood example of a recipe that lends itself to creativity is quiche. It’s an almost foolproof recipe if you use a frozen pie shell, and a dish that people are pretty impressed by. It’s also a nice, protein-rich, relatively inexpensive dish that you can take to potlucks. — Email Julie at jacross@dcn. org or visit her on Facebook at The New Home Ec. Basic Quiche Serves 6. Ingredients: 1 9-inch unbaked pie shell ¼ cup onion, diced and sautéed 1 cup any combination of cooked vegetables, meat, fish or tofu 1 cup any kind of cheese, grated 3 1½eggscups whole milk salt and pepper to taste Putting it together: Bake pie shell until barely set and very lightly browned, about 7 minutes at 350 degrees. Scatter onion, vegetables/ protein and cheese evenly across bottom of pie shell. Beat eggs thoroughly and stir in milk. Add salt and pepper. Pour egg mixture over onions and cheese. Bake at 375 degrees for 40 to 45 minutes, until top is puffy and golden brown and middle is just barely set. Remove from oven and let stand for 15 minutes. Serve warm, room temperature or cold. Be sure to refrigerate leftovers.
Easy yet fancy, a quiche rewards your cookingemergingskills.

Much like Davis and our sister cities, Morris is surrounded by farm land. The cities lean left, the famers lean right. They got together to create what they call the Morris Model. They “removed partisan politics from community discussions about climate policy” and found com mon ground on “reducing energy consumption by 30 percent by 2030, producing 80 percent of the county’s electricity by 2030” with solar and wind, and elimi nating landfill waste by 2025.” According to the article, suc cess resulted because, “We’ve never focused on climate change as being the thing to talk about, because you don’t have to.” They instead focused on lower energy bills and more economic activity from locally produced power.” This sounds a lot like our situ ation here in Davis and Yolo County where climate planning has been short on politics and long on results, something that is neither strange nor fiction. — John Mott-Smith is a resi dent of Davis.
