S uisun City resident Delores Jean Adams was born to be a disc jockey. After all, the abbreviation for someone who plays recorded music on the radio or at a club or party, DJ, is the nick name she has gone by since the sixth grade at David Weir Elementary School. Despite having never advertised or having a presence anywhere on the internet, she has run her local DJ business, CP Systems, for decades. CP Systems started in 1981 and DJ has run it by herself since 1995. That was the year her husband and business partner died. He was Greg Adams, a founder and lead guitarist for local rock ‘n’ roll band CP DeloresKrunt.Jean Winters met Greg Adams at Fairview Elementary School in the fifth grade, but she didn’t really get to know him until they had both graduated from high school in 1972 – she from Fairfield High and he from Armijo. They met at a party the next year thrown by Dan O. Root IV and became inseparable. After living together from 1973 to 1983, they tied the knot on their 10th anniversary.“Gregwas so funny, he made me belly laugh every single day,” DJ Adams said. “He was a very caring person, too, and would do things like mow the neighbor’s lawn because they were older people.” The original lineup of CP Krunt included Greg Adams, Bill Mason (drums), Kent Harvey (organ, flute, vocals) and Glade Rasmussen (bass). Later lineups included Jeff Curtis, Phil Greene, John McIntyre, Michael Monasterio and Steve Ring. They opened for fairly big names in the industry like Elvin Bishop, Eddie Money and others, but never broke through beyond having a large regional following. In 1981, despite finally getting a record offer from Beserkley Records (whose stable of artists included The Greg Kihn Band and The Rubinoos), Greg Adams was done with rock and roll dreams and the band broke up. After the demise of CP Krunt, the Adamses were left with all the band’s gear and one day a friend asked if they could bring over the huge speakers they had for a party. “We got there and he had the worst music, so I went home and got cassette tapes and bam! – everybody was dancing. Greg and I thought if we could do that once a month it would be great. Well, we didn’t have a weekend off for three years after that. It just took off. We often had a gig on Friday, two on Saturday and one on Sunday. It got to the point where we had to tell people we were booked solid just to have a weekend off to relax and go waterskiing with friends,” DJ Adams said. In 1994, the couple went to Santa Cruz and Greg fell when putting his surfboard on top of the van. DJ thought it was weird because he was very coordi nated. In addition to being a barefoot water-skier, she’d seen him many times effortlessly leap from table to table with a 40-pound guitar slung around his neck. He fell again taking the surfboard down and assumed it was due to an inner ear infec tion. When antibiotics did nothing and he was tormented by headaches, the doctors ordered a CAT scan. It revealed that Greg Adams had a brain tumor. He fought hard, but died on Father’s Day 1995. DJ Adams over the years has honored the memory of her late husband. In 1979, CP Krunt had played a set of Ted Nugent songs with the Motor City Madman himself in Sacra mento. After “Cat Scratch Fever,” “Stranglehold” and others, Nugent declared that CP Krunt were the best band he’d seen at covering his songs. “Then Greg asked him to sign his guitar and he pulled out a Buck knife and carved his name into it. In 2018, I had a certificate of authenticity made and at a meet-and-greet in Nevada, Nugent signed it. I even got a picture even though no one else was allowed to take one,” Adams said. The DJ business was called CP Systems because Greg Adams also ran lights and sound and they retained the CP Krunt logo. It is still on DJ Adams’ business cards – her only nod to advertising beyond word-ofmouth replacedOverdanceidentifysettesusedBackrecommendations.intheday,theAdamsescolor-coordinatedcastoquicklybeabletoandplayslowsongs,numbersandthelike.theyears,DJAdamsthetapeswithcompact discs and now her party music is all on a Mac laptop. Just like for a lot of busi nesses that rely on audiences, the Covid-19 pandemic was brutal for DJ’s. But that is starting to change as folks are wanting to mingle and party. So far post-lockdown, DJ Adams has done a three-day gig for The Mustang Club of America in Suisun City in May, which led to getting the party started at the Armijo High Class of 1982’s 40th reunion in Fairfield two weeks ago. DJ Adams doesn’t mind song requests from partygoers . . . most of the time. “It’s fine unless it’s really off the wall or will kill a dance floor like ‘In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida’ or something,” she said. “But sometimes you never know. I was doing a gig once where it was mainly people doing country line dancing and I got a request for a Led Zeppelin song and they danced to it!”
“There can be the most horrible three-piece, out-oftune, can’t sing, terrible band and if they play a song audi ences know, people will get up and dance,” DJ Adams said. “Now, when I play the original song that sounds great, however, they just sit there. There’s just something about liveDJmusic.”Adams is mulling over whether to make a Facebook page and she is keeping the CP Krunt logo and name CP Systems. She is, however, thinking of changing her professional name to “DJ the DJ.” If the original legal name her father had in mind for her had stuck, she might have changed it as well. “My dad and sister and brother used to watch a cartoon called ‘Beany and Cecil’ about a boy with a helicopter propeller on his beanie that allowed him to fly, and his friend, a seasick sea serpent. The villain, who wore a black cape and had a mustache, was named Dishon est John and was known as DJ. I showed up and my dad wanted me to be called Dishonest John so I could be called DJ. He wanted his blonde, blue-eyed little baby girl to be named Dishonest John! I’m glad my mother stood up and said no! They comprised and I became Delores Jean,” DJ Adams said.

All the conversations we had with the state, they were very excited for what we were doing with an all-ability park.” Another struggle came when Vacaville attorney James Haskell, the sec retary of the Play 4 All Park board, was arrested in May and charged with several sex crimes against children, to which he has pleaded not guilty.

Editor’s note: Annie Lane is off this week. The following column was originally pub lished in 2019. Dear Annie: I am part of a cooking club that meets the second Tuesday of each month. Each member buys food and we cook a recipe chosen by the host. There are 15 members. Each has to host once every 15 months. We are all females in our 50s or 60s. There’s a handful of members who always attend and a larger group that rarely (like never) attend. The ones that attend would like to get rid of the ones that never attend. Annie, how do we dip lomatically get rid of the nonattendees? We’ve tried asking in email and face to face if they want to be a part of the group and they always enthusi astically assure us that they do, but still they do not RSVP, or they RSVP with a yes and then don’tIt’scome.very annoying, and we are just ready to drop them. For what it’s worth, these ladies do host when it’s their turn.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There are things about your life you can’t change right now. You’ll be able to do something about them later. While you wait for the opportunity to take back control, think about the other things you’re currently empowered to affect.
Dear Worried: You can’t control your husband, and the more you try, the more des perate you’ll feel. I highly recommend checking out a support group such as Al-Anon (http://al-anon.org), Families Anonymous loseareabetterfactdrinkingmeetingsyou’lljoin“It’srecovery.org/family).FriendsSMARTfamiliesanonymous.org),(https://www.orRecoveryFamily&(https://www.smartIknowyoumightthink,notsobadthatIneedtoasupportgroup,”orthatwaittoattendoneoftheseifyourhusband’sgetsworse.Buttheisthatthere’sneverbeenatimetogothannow.Takechance.Allofthemeetingsfree.Youhavenothingtoandpeaceofmindtogain.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The boundaries around the relationship are what make it a home. Hopefully the boundar ies inside the relationship allow each their own space. In love and other shelters, the walls are as important as the foundation.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There are a lot of things you could do to help out, but it will be most satisfying to do some thing you’re great at. Your highest point of contribution will involve your unique ness and be enjoyable for you to give. Write Holiday Mathis at HolidayMathis.com.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). When things seem much harder than they should be, you take notice and start asking ques tions. What would be easier? Who can I learn from? Who’s doing it better? What adjust ments can be made?
Dear Annie: I have been an organ donor all of my life. But now that I am 88 years old, I wonder if any of my body parts are still of use. If so, what can be utilized, please? — 88-YearOld Organ Donor Dear Organ Donor: You can be an organ donor at any age. According to the U.S. govern ment’s official website for organ donation information, one of the oldest organ donors in the U.S. was a 92-year-old man whose liver saved the life of a 69-yearold woman.

A POSITIVE INFERENCE
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ve decided it’s wise to stay a little on guard but can’t say what you want to say while trying to mitigate the risk of getting hurt. If you knew it was impossible to protect yourself from truth and pain, then how would you go about it?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re feeling less ambitious, but oddly you’ll be happier because of this. While big wins and lofty goals are amazing to hit, the day-to-day stress has a way of wearing on you. One small goal at a time will feel really good right now.
— Bakers’ Dozen Dear Bakers’ Dozen: The key ingredient here is com munication: Communicate to these women the concrete ways in which their spotty atten dance impacts the rest of the club. For example, maybe it makes it impossible for the month’s hostess to antic ipate how many stations to set up; or maybe it means those who do show up need to bring more ingredients, and costs go up. Write out an email explaining these factors. Then say some thing along the lines of, “For these reasons, we’re asking if every one can commit to coming to 10 meetings per year, and RSVP for each meeting a week in advance,” adjusting those specifics to whatever is accept able to your club. There’s a good chance some of these women had never thought through the inconve nience they’d caused and, now that they’re aware, will make amend their behavior. Dear Annie: My husband reads your column every day, so I thought you could address this issue. He is retired but doesn’t have much interest in any hobbies. We’ve had many discussions on things he can do, including volunteering. Nothing seems to motivate him. He has started drinking daily at the neighborhood bar with the other retired guys. It is interfer ing with any plans we’ve made. Talking about it only causes more arguments and problems. I’m spending more time with my gal pals, which also adds to the problem. This should be the best time of our lives, not the worst.

IS ATTRACTIVE Despite Sir Isaiah Berlin’s claim that “men . . . live by positive goals,” there are times when bridge-playing men –and women, of course – have to live by negative goals. You learn something crucial because of a bid or play an opponent didn’t make. Drawing these negative inferences is one of the arts of the Thegame.bidding in today’s deal was tricky. Ideally, North-South would have reached three no-trump, but that is easier said than done. North might bid two no-trump over two hearts. Alternatively, there is a toy! On the first round, South makes a jump cue-bid of three hearts. This shows eight or nine guaranteed tricks, with a long, solid minor, and asks North to bid three no-trump with a heart stopper. But without this gadget, suppose South winds up in five diamonds. After winning trick one with the spade ace, declarer draws trumps. Then he leads a low heart from hand. When West puts in the eight, which card should South play from the board? Given that West has at least five hearts and opening-bid values, it looks, at first glance, best to put up the queen, playing West for the ace-king. But think back to the opening lead. If you were West, holding the spade king-queen and heart ace-king, which card would you have selected? Right, a top heart. Therefore, because West didn’t lead a heart, East must have the singleton king or ace. Declarer plays low from the board, letting East’s honor fall on fallow ground. A moment later, South leads toward the heart queen again and makes his COPYRIGHT:contract.2022,UNITED SYNDICATE

Barbie Ferreira is now leaving ‘Euphoria’ show Los A ngeLes Times “Euphoria” will be one teen short when it returns for Season 3. Barbie Ferreira, who portrayed the body-con scious Kat Hernandez, announced Wednesday that she will not return for the third season of “Euphoria.”“Afterfour years of getting to embody the most special and enig matic character Kat, I’m having to say a very teary eyed goodbye,” she wrote in her Instagram story. “I hope many of you could see yourself in her like I did and that she brought you joy to see her journey into the character she is Thetoday.”actor’s post fea tured artwork of one of her character’s pivotal moments, drawn by co-star Hunter Schafer, who plays Jules. While Ferreira’s formal announcement comes months after the show’s chaotic Season 2 finale, fans of the HBO series weren’t exactly surprised. Earlier this year, “Euphoria’s” sophomore season was the center of controversy. In Feb ruary, the Daily Beast reported allegations of a toxic workplace – from long, late-night shoots to disorganized set days under creator and direc tor Sam Levinson. The Daily Beast also reported that there was tension between Ferreira and Levinson, leading the actor allegedly to walk off set. However, in March Ferreira dismissed the socalled drama as “untrue.” Ferreira’s Kat quickly became a fan favorite, debuting in Season 1 as an unsure teenager who looked to seedy corners of the internet to take back control of her body and sex life.

LOS ANGELES — Buy a car in California in 2035 and you won’t have to decide between gas oline, diesel or electric. You won’t have a choice. Citing an urgent need to address climate change while cutting back on air pollution, the Cal ifornia Air Resources Board voted Thursday to require all new cars and light trucks sold by 2035 to be zero-emis sionLaurenvehicles.Sanchez, Gov. Gavin Newsom’s climate adviser, called it “a huge day not only for California but the the entireTheworld.”mission, she said: “Move the state away from oil.” The move marks a historic turn in the decades-long battle to curb motor vehicle pol lution, a momentous shift for consumers, indus try, the economy, and the environment.California has led the nation in auto emissions regulation since CARB was created in 1966 to combat the toxic yellowbrown smog that hung over Los Angeles. The state’s large population meant automakers could not ignore the state’s mandates. Congress gave California permission to set its own rules under the Federal Air Quality Act the same year. Cal ifornia’s emissions and fuel efficiency rules have been adopted by more than a dozen other states. Even with that pro digious record, the zero-emission mandate “is the most impor tant and transformative action that CARB has ever taken,” said Dan Sperling, founding direc tor of the Institute of Transportation Studies at UCTheDavis.mandate forces automakers to phase out gasoline and diesel cars, sport utility vehi cles, minivans and pickup trucks in favor of cleaner versions powered by bat teries or fuel cells. If automakers fall short, they could be charged $20,000 per non complying car, CARB said. If consumers don’t go along? That could cause big problems. But state officials think they will, and the trend line lendsElectricconfidence.cars are rapidly gaining popular ity in California. In 2012, less than 2% of new vehi cles sold were electric. That grew to 7% in 2018. But demand has surged since, and now 16% of new cars sold in the state are plug-in vehicles – battery elec tric, led by Tesla; plug-in hybrid vehicles; and a smattering of cars that run on hydrogen fuel cells. There are now 1.13 million zero-emis sion vehicles registered in California, accord ing to CARB – 43% of the nation’s total. Once considered little more than glorified golf carts with paltry range, electric cars now can travel several hundred miles on a single charge. Under the new rules, 35% of new cars must be zero emission by 2026, 68% by 2030, and 100% by 2035.

Lance’s three posses sions, which traveled 25, 8 and 50 yards, proba bly provided more insight into the state of the 49ers’ largely unproven offensive line than the 22-year-old QB ready ing for his first season as aLancestarter. completed 7 of 11 passes for 49 yards while under steady pres sure. Lance was dropped for a seven-yard sack to start the 49ers’ second drive, threw an incom pletion when defensive lineman Jerry Hughess watted his right arm mid-throw and was dumped for a six-yard sack that was nullified by an offsides penalty. Lance also was chased out of the pocket on a one-yard scramble on a play that was wiped out by a defen sive holding infraction. Rookie right guard Spencer Burford was called for a holding penalty to start Lance’s third drive. And that pos session – and Lance’s evening – ended in a way that reflected the 49ers’ initial performance on offense: Running back Trey Sermon was dropped for a 3-yard loss when the front five was overwhelmed on 4thand-2 from the Texans’ 35-yard line early in the second quarter. The shaky protection partly explained Lance’s penchant for short tosses. His final six comple tions went for 1, 2, 14, 8, 4 and 5 yards. It’s worth noting All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams didn’t play and was replaced by Jaylon Moore. But the 49ers’ other four starters could be first-stringers for the season opener at Chicago on Sept. 11: left guard Aaron Banks, center Jake Brendel, Burford and right tackle Colton McK ivitz, who has assumed the starting role with Mike McGlinchey side lined with a knee injury that has his season-open ing status in doubt. Lance’s completion percentage (63.6) was respectable, but inaccu racy issues that have been evident throughout prac tices were on display. On the second play of the 49ers’ second drive, Lance threw an off-target, short pass that bounced off tight end George Kittle’s out stretched hands. Wide receiver Malik Turner was wide open over the middle on Lance’s final drive, but his 14-yard completion was low, forcing Turner to make a sliding grab. to son matches,” Williams said by email. “The chal lenge will do us great to get ready for con ference play and then postseason.”TheFalcons have a couple of preseason tuneups Friday during the Solano Classic when they host Hartnell at 2 p.m. and San Joaquin Delta at 6 p.m. The Falcons have three returning sopho more players. Bay Valley Conference MVP Sammy Brown is back at outside hitter and a six rota tion player. First-team selection Dani Rydjord will move to the right front and setting posi tion. Sophomore Libero Crystal Carroll is also back after getting plenty of playing time last year as a defensive specialist. Solano has also added some local talent to the roster in Kelsey Wall of Vanden High. Wil liams said she expects great things from Wall, who brings a lot of expe rience and hits a heavy ball. Wall will poten tially be a six rotation player opposite of Brown, Williams said. Local defensive spe cialists were also added in Fairfield High’s Jailynn Bermudez and Eryka Ferrer from Jesse Bethel. They are both very aggressive, very coach able and play some great defense, Williams said. Hannah Del Rio is a new middle hitter from Will C. Wood. She brings in some great size and is expected to see action at either middle or right front hitter. Then from Vacaville High, Liliana Ayala comes in with some middle experience that should help the Falcons out in the middle or right front. Both bring blocking and height to the front row. The Falcons also got a new setter in Layla Morales, who played locally at both Club Solano and Rodriguez High. Morales should step in and help out at the setting position as both setters from last year graduated. Williams said Morales has some great hands and will help run the offense with Rydjord. From outside the area, the Falcons added Haley Woodworth from College Park High in Pleasant Hill and Codi LePak-Murphy from Carnodelet in Concord. Williams said both players will see plenty of playing time in a variety of positions.

That jarring news came from general manager John Lynch before Thursday’s pre season finale at Houston. “We’ll probably have him on short-term on (injured reserve) the first four games of the season, which is a big loss, but we have to find a way to step up,” Lynch said on Prime Video’s pregame set, alongside former 49ers corner back Richard Sherman, who was making his broadcast debut.

Los A ngeLes TiMes Before the Rams held joint prac tices with the Cincinnati Bengals, Rams quarterback Matthew Staf ford made an optimistic prediction. “As long as everybody keeps their head on straight and doesn’t go too crazy or we have to call practice earlier or whatever that is, I think it’s a positive,” Stafford said. Cooler heads did not prevail Thursday, the second day of prac tices between last season’s Super BowlTempersparticipants.flared. Helmets came off and were swung. Punches were thrown and there was also kicking and shoving before Rams coach Sean McVay and Bengals coach Zac Taylor ended the workout prematurely.Onanother warm and humid day, tempers rose on offense, defense and special teams. Rams defensive lineman A’Shawn Robin son and linebacker Justin Hollins were among players involved in skirmishes earlier in the practice, which was conducted on two fields. The rising tensions culmi nated with a brawl that caused McVay to run from the far field in attempt to break it up. He emerged visibly angry, but later downplayed the“Iemotion.justsee guys swinging and some guys have helmets on, some don’t, there’s a scrum, you just never know what can occur,” McVay said, “and my biggest concern in just unnecessary injuries for people that we’re counting on . . . . God forbid anybody gets hit in the head with a helmet off.”

Joe Lacob has made no secret about his desire to own a baseball team as well as the Golden State Warriors. He might finally get his Lacobwish.says he has a standing offer to buy the A’s, but now one of Oak land’s American League West rivals could soon be up for sale: the Los Angeles Angels. The Los Angeles Times reached out to Lacob earlier this week to gauge his interest if Angels owner, Arte Moreno, is serious about selling his club. “Can’t answer this question that fast. We look at good opportunities,” Lacob told the Times. They said Lacob ended the exchange with a smile emoji. It figured that Lacob would be considered a potential buyer. He also inquired about the Dodgers and Angels (when Moreno bought the team in 2002) in addi tion to his ongoing interest in theLacobA’s. said thenMLB commissioner Bud Selig blocked an agree ment to buy the A’s in 2005 for $180 million in “Long Schott,” a book by and about former A’s co-owner Stephen Schott, co-authored by the San Francisco Chron icle’s John Shea, adding that Selig not only dis missed the deal out of hand, but didn’t bother calling him back. “So I had the Oakland A’s agreed to . . . and it got yanked from under me. I was really pissed at BudSeligSelig.”is no longer the commissioner and Lacob has gone on to become one of the most recognizable –and successful – owners in professional sports. Lacob, 66, is worth $1.5 billion according to Forbes. (It’s also worth noting that Lacob’s War riors ownership partner Peter Guber is a partowner of the Dodgers.) So why would Lacob be interested in the Angels, who have been plagued by controversy off the field and underperformance on it? It doesn’t hurt that Lacob’s family moved to Southern California in his youth and was an Angels fan – even selling peanuts at the Big A. The Times points out that Lacob could be outbid by Rams owner Stan Kroenke, who also has been actively pursuing a baseball team for years. In 2012 he was the runnerup for the Dodgers. The Times said Mark Cuban, who was in on the Dodgers bidding, has said he’s not interested in the Angels. If it gets that far, how much might Lacob be looking at spending to get Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani and the Angels? The team is valued at about $2.2 billion by Forbes, but for comparison, the Dodgers (worth much more than the Angels) were sold for $2.15 billion. Speculation is a deal might happen by the start of next season – or the start of the NBA playoffs –so it might be a very busy spring for Lacob.

A video appears to show Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald with a Bengals helmet in his hand as he fell to the ground. Donald was scheduled to speak with reporters after practice but in the aftermath of the fight was not made available. He also, through a team spokesperson, declined a request to speak with reporters later at the team hotel. McVay said he did not know “exactly what instigated” the brawl that ended the practice. “I think in some instances teams defending each other,” he said. “Fortunately, my understanding is nobody got hurt and we’ll move on from it. “Not going to make a bigger deal than what it is. Not going to look at pointingAccordingfingers.”to a report on NFL. com, individual teams, not the league, are responsible for oversee ing conduct at practices. The Rams are not strangers to brawls that end joint practices. Before last season, a workout with the Las Vegas Raiders ended early because of fights. Players and coaches say they enjoy joint practices because, after weeks of competing against team mates in training camp, it provides starters an opportunity to go against opponents in a setting that ostensi bly helps prevent injuries. In the Rams-Bengals workouts, enthusiasm apparent on the first day gave way to frustration and anger on the second. So, is avoiding a second day of joint workouts the solution? “It’s hard to argue otherwise but to say it’s impossible, I wouldn’t say that,” McVay said. “There’s just so much, and so many things that go into the framework of a play, when there’s 22 moving parts and you can’t get to the bottom of all of it.

Could California save HouseDemocrats’majority?
P olitical handicappers almost uni versally expect that Democrats will lose their paper-thin majority in the House of Representatives this year. However, if it’s closer than expected, what happens in a handful of California congressio nal districts could make the difference. On paper, Democrats should make gains in California this year, perhaps as many as five seats, thanks largely to how an independent redistricting commission changed the state’s 52 congressional districts after the 2020 11tionoftion,theparticularlyDemographiccensus.changes,increasesinstate’sLatinopopulaandcontinuederosionRepublicanvoterregistrameantthatmostoftheRepublican-helddistrictswoundupwithsmallerGOPvotershares.

Opinion
I t’s been said that admit ting you have a problem is the first step to recovery. Maybe that’s what Rochelle Walensky, the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, was looking toward when she conceded last week that the agency she manages botched its response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Her stunning admission came in reaction to an agency-initiated internal review that found the CDC wanting on multiple levels. The review reportedly found that it “takes too long for CDC to publish its data and science for decision making,” that its guidance is “confusing and overwhelming” and that agency staff turnover during the Covid response “created gaps and other challenges forSomepartners.”ofthese failures, Walensky asserted, are a function of poor infra structure, inadequate staffing and funding, and silos within the agency. In a video message to CDC staff, Walensky echoed the review findings, pointing to the agency’s habitually tardy release of relevant data, its muddled messages on virus mitigation measures, and its general inability to respond to public health threats effectively.TheCDC is “responsible for some pretty dramatic, pretty public mis takes,” she confessed. I’ll Thosesay.are fairly substantial failures for an agency whose primary role is to protect public health. And I won’t be the first to assert that funding doesn’t have much to do with it. It was politics, not staffing short ages or a hesitancy to release non-peer-reviewed studies or even bureaucratic failures, that motivated CDC leadership to repeat questionable or inaccurate information – whether on the origin of the virus, its mild impact on children, or the data regarding efficacy of masks andSovaccines.inreality, Walensky’s admission only confirmed what most Americans have known for a long time. The CDC is now little more than another political entity; one more interested in following the polls than theToscience.befair, the organization deserves grace for its performance during the early days of the pandemic, when very little was known about Covid-19. It made sense that early guidance would need to be modified as new information became available. But the CDC earned no such indul gence when it doubled-down on bad data, bad guidance and bad deci sions in the preceding two-and-a half years – even in the presence of volumi nous contradictory research. Indeed, the agency’s muddled and ever-changing rules were adopted and enforced by many governing entities around the country.

T here is an ongoing debate on how or when to dis cipline your young off spring. It becomes even more controversial when you bring up the issue of physi cal discipline. Is it ever nec essary? When does physical discipline becomes abuse? The modern perspective would call any form of physi cal discipline violence or child abuse. I am amused by such a naïve per spective on discipline. There are responsible parents who use reason able judgment to determine their child’s need for discipline and what form of discipline is necessary. The fact is, consequences change behavior. The most ridiculous claim that is sometimes made is that there is not much difference between spank ing and beating. I actually laugh at this one. Let’s get something straight. There’s a huge difference between beating and spanking. Let’s under stand the difference. A beating is what we often see as excessive force by some police officers such as the most recent incident where multiple offi cers were recorded on social media violently beating an unarmed man after a traffic stop. Compare that to a parent who smacks a 3-year-old on the hand for running into the street. That child just learned a lesson that may have saved his life. When you use an extreme example and the word “beating,” then such a narrow perspective might make sense to people who don’t give it a secondBarringthought.theextreme act of child abuse, which is the exception not the rule, most adults who were physically disciplined at some point in their childhood did not grow up to be violent abusive mon sters. As a matter of fact, in my experience working in the field of youth development, most adults testify that they appreciate the dis cipline they received while growing up. This furthur validates that when applied responsibly, discipline is an act of loving redirection of behavior. It’s not delivered out of anger, emotion andMostpunishment.adults,including myself, will maintain that we are more responsible adults because of it. How hypocritical it is of our crim inal justice system, which seems to endorse so much violence in our cities and nation, to accuse parents of being violent for disciplining their children? Today’s parents need every tool neces sary to discipline a child. Many youth have become out-of-control and have gravitated to extreme violence and dangerous activities. Law enforce ment agencies across the nation are using deadly force – violence on mis chievous youth who have eluded the weak grip of discipline from their parents. So, essentially, the narrative is this: Parents can’t spank their chil dren but the police can kill them. As a former juvenile hall coun selor, I experienced a situation where a father took action by physically dis ciplining his son after he learned that the 15-year-old had stolen his handgun and was headed out to retaliate on a group of youth over a previous con frontation. The son had taken a 9mm semi automatic weapon with two full clips. The father finds out about it, catches his son on the street, takes the gun and basically opens up an oldfashioned can of whipping on him. The authorities arrested the father for child abuse: The man may have just saved several lives. Now if the police had confronted the teen with the gun, he would’ve been shot and killed on the spot. It seems that we have become out of touch with reality and disconnected from the true challenges of raising children and teens today. Parents need all the tools necessary to main tain control of their children. Some children need a higher dosage of dis cipline. Just as a doctor prescribes a specific medication to a patient to treat an illness, a parent should be just as diligent when prescribing discipline to a child to treat a behavioral illness. Too little may not be effective and too much could be fatal. Discipline without punishment is necessary for parents to raise their children into responsible adults. Deon D.

CDC finally admits it botched Covid response, but it still hasn’t addressed cause: Politics
It’s why some schools remained closed for months – longer than in most other parts of the world. It’s why children as young as 2, including those with developmen tal challenges, were masked, and some remain so. It’s why vaccine mandates that were powerless to stop the virus’ spread were put in place in businesses andTheworkplaces.devastation caused by those policies (and the guidelines that prompted them) is difficult to quantify. Learning loss, particularly among vulnerable and at-risk student popula tions, may take decades to recover.
DAILY REPUBLIC — Friday, August 26, 2022 B3
There is increasing evidence that young children and even babies have suffered developmental delays during the pandemic; speculation is that social isolation and masking policies are to Andblame.thenumber of people who lost livelihoods on account of vaccine mandates is only now being fully realized – and legally vindicated, in someWhat’scases.interesting about Walen sky’s admission, though, is the timing. Her call for an overhaul has come just days after the CDC walked back its Covid mitigation guidelines, favor ing individual discretion over rigid, draconian rules. For example, it’s now viewed as safe for those exposed to the virus to avoid quarantine. There is no dis tinction between the guidance for unvaccinated and vaccinated people. Screening for those without symp toms has been ruled unnecessary. And thankfully, students exposed to the virus may remain in class. It’s worth noting that these rec ommendations were championed by some doctors and disease experts earlier in the pandemic, and they were met with CDC officials’ ire. The rule changes are a quiet con cession by the CDC that it was – yet again – wrong. Of course, for all those suffer ing from the agency’s botched Covid response, these admissions are too little, too Howeverlate.badly needed an agency overhaul may be, it will not restore the trust of the American public. And there’s no telling the long-term conse quences of that failure.

Discipline, punishment not the sameDan Walters
That was bad news for Republicans who had barely won election or re-election in 2020, a year in which the GOP regained four of the seven seats it had lost in 2018. Democrats’ most serious GOP targets are Michelle Steel and Young Kim in Orange County, Ken Calvert in Riverside County, Mike Garcia in the suburbs of northern Los Angeles County and David Valadao in the southern San Joaquin Valley. The district represented by Garcia, who won his seat in a 2020 election and then a full term later that year, has the most obvious effect of redistricting. To win and retain his seat, Garcia defeated Democrat Christy Smith twice, but only by 333 votes the second time. The redistricting commission sliced some of the most Republican-leaning territory off Garcia’s district and as he faces Smith for a third time she enjoys an 11-percentage point Democratic voter registration advantage.
Former President Donald Trump’s polarizing effect is a factor in two of the tar getedCalvert,districts.acongressman for two decades, has been one of the former president’s most outspoken supporters in Congress and Dem ocratic challenger Will Rollins is using that connection as a potentially decisive weapon in a district where voter registration is vir tuallyValadao,tied. on the other hand, is one of 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump and one of only two on the ballot this fall. However, Valadao must defeat Democratic challenger Rudy Salas, a state Assembly member, in a district that now has 17-percent age-point Democratic registration margin. Kim and Steel also faces tough re-election battles, but their Asian ethnicities are thought to be advantages and handicappers give both better than 50-50 chances of surviving. Going into the final two months of the campaigns, there are two factors that could overcome the Democrats’ paper advantages in California – President Joe Biden’s popular ity and voter turnout. The University of Virginia’s Center for Politics, which produces highly rated Crystal Ball reports on political campaigns, cites Biden’s standing as the most significant factor in the likelihood that the Democrats will lose the “GivenHouse.theconsistent downward trend in the president’s numbers, Democrats probably shouldn’t count on rapid positive movement, at least not in time for November,” it said in its most recent report. “With that, in order to salvage their prospects in the midterms, Democrats will have to run markedly ahead of Biden’s approval rating.” California is an overwhelmingly Demo cratic state but Biden doesn’t fare well among its voters. A new poll by University of Cali fornia, Berkeley’s Institute of Governmental Studies, released last week, found that 61% of California voters don’t want Biden to seek a second term and that includes 46% of Democrats.Meanwhile, the dynamics of this year’s election aren’t encouraging about voter turnout. There are no real statewide races to generate voter enthusiasm nor any ballot measures with visceral appeal. What happens in California this year could, at least in theory, save the Democratic House majority, but it’s not likely.

The WashingTon PosT L ove him or hate him? That question is at the core of Hulu’s entertainingly hectic new miniseries about boxing legend, convicted rapist and pop culture touchstone MikeButTyson.unlike the real life champ with a killer right upper cut, “Mike” pulls its punches, never weighing in on which version of the superstar the audience should root forwhich Mike should leave the ring victorious. Is he the steelyeyed villain, the lovable rogue, the misunderstood little boy with a lisp so desperate for love he found it in a fist? The series is a split decision. The show’s executive pro ducers say “Mike” isn’t about who or what, but why. Piecing together Tyson’s story from “factual accounts, interviews, footage of real-life events,” the purpose of the eight-part drama “is to go beyond the sound bites and tabloid headlines, to create a deeper, more nuanced look at his complicated life,” accord ing to a statement released by the show’s executive producers ahead of the its Aug. 25 debut. “’Mike’ never attempts to portray Mike Tyson as a hero or a villain. Rather it aims to ask the viewer to re-examine a unique, sweeping, complex, contradictory life and decide for themselves what they think and how they feel,” the state ment continued. In his corner, Tyson, who was not consulted or com pensated for the series, has been characteristically vocal about how he feels. It’s a thumbs“Don’tdown.letHulu fool you. I don’t support their story about my life. It’s not 1822. It’s 2022. They stole my life story and didn’t pay me. To Hulu exec utives I’m just a [n-word] they can sell on the auction block,” the 56-year-old posted on Insta gram earlier this month. So where does that leave the folks watching, caught between the latest series that serves as a ‘90s pop culture love letter and the real-life subject who’d rather leave it locked in a drawer, or at the very least get a royalty check? With a case of whiplash, as a creative team that includes writer-director Steven Rogers (“I, Tonya”) and director Craig Gillespie (“Pam & Tommy”) clearly want to reveal Tyson’s true character without reveling in caricature, while simultaneously backing off from summary judgment. It can be gut-wrenching, as when young Mike (Zaiden James) sits next to his mother as a White man behind a desk tells her that her son is “retarded,” another start ing bell to a childhood marked by poverty, neglect, domes tic abuse and bombed-out buildings in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn. The show can also be heartwarming, as when 14-year-old Mike (B.J. Minor) cries silent tears after winning his first real fight, real izing that he won’t be on the wrong side of a fist ever again. Then there’s grown-up Mikeembodied with incredible care by “Moonlight’s” Trevante Rhodes - who, well, ate up all those earlier versions of himself after losing his mentor and trainer, Cus D’Amato (Harvey Keitel), and later his mother (OlunikeSprintingAdeliyi).from one big defining moment to the next, punctuated with boxing scenes that are tertiary to the main tale, it’s hard to figure out what, if anything, the audi ence is supposed to glean from this immersive exhibit of “This is Your Life: Mike Tyson.” Nothing is revealed, only dra matized, which is certainly entertaining - but illuminat ing? Sure, some Mikes seem easy to love – as D’Amato tells the former reform school kid in one of their many fatherson moments – but other Mikes much less so, and connecting them harder still. The miniseries uses a 2017 stage performance similar to Tyson’s one-man Broadway show, “Mike Tyson: Undis puted Truth,” as a narrative framework, so Rhodes’s Tyson appears to be telling us his story himself. The device lends an air of authority to the great est (and lowest) hits he shares from the stage, a meta-version of what’s happening with the series as a whole. But this is an unauthorized take. Despite all the fourth-wall breaking and tongue-in-cheek asides, in the end, we don’t learn anything that can’t be gleaned from a Wikipedia page or Tyson’s own highly publicized words. Which isn’t to say that Rhodes doesn’t blaze as both storyteller and star. The actor slips into Tyson’s physicality and musicality with dexterity, echoing the fighter’s tightrope walk between awkward shyness and ferocious bravado. Equally scene-stealing is Adeliyi as Tyson’s suffer-no-fools single mother, Lorna Mae, playing her as both sympathetic and cringeinducing. She’s the woman who can’t figure out why her son can’t get right, the one who told him he’d never amount to any thing, the one who wanted him to come back home when he moved in with D’Amato. It isn’t until the fifth episode (the last available for review) that the show switches off Tyson’s take and turns the tale over to Desiree Washington (Li Eubanks), the 18-year-old beauty pageant star who the boxer was convicted of raping in 1992. All previous episodes are titled after some layer of Tyson’s character – “Thief,” “Monster,” “Lover,” “Meal Ticket.” But in this install ment, “Desiree,” the champ is finally viewed through the lens of someone who has their own clear picture of who he is. In that half-hour, Tyson addresses the camera only once, after assaulting Washing ton, to ask, “Don’t love me no more?” The answer is obvious, but there are three more epi sodes to go. entertaining but look at boxer Thursday On Hulu Alfonso Bresciani/Hulu

Trevante Rhodes as Mike Tyson in Hulu’s “Mike.”
Another hot summer’s day resulted in a packed card room for the Senior Life Master’s class. “Let’s see if our declarer play can match the efficiency of our air-condi tioning,” the SLM began. He wrote the North-South hands and the auction on the board. You have bid an emphatic four spades (the SLM continued). The first trick goes diamond ace, three, queen, six. West shifts to the club deuce. How would you proceed from there? The SLM gave them a minute to decide on their plans. This deal (the SLM proceeded) arose during a knockout team match here. One declarer was oblivious to the danger. He took the second trick on the board and played a trump. However, West won with the spade ace, led a low diamond to his partner’s jack and received a club ruff to defeat the contract.Theother declarer, though, heard the tom-toms beating out a rhythm that went: “Singleton, singleton, singleton.” He knew what West was trying to do, and South saw how to stop West’s plan dead in its tracks. He won the club lead in the dummy and called for the heart king. When East played low, declarer discarded his second diamond. West could no longer get East on lead for his ruff, and the contract made. West immediately apologized to his partner. “If only I had led my club at trick one, we could have beaten the contract.”Thatis true. Now West will get his ruff whatever South does. In fact, if declarer leads a trump at trick two, a courageous West can get two ruffs, underleading his diamond honors twice.COPYRIGHT: 2022, UNITED FEATURE SYNDICATE

‘Everything I Know About Love’ explores the ‘mundaneness of being in your 20s’ Tribune ConTenT AgenCy The cast of “Every thing I Know About Love” is the first to admit they still don’t know everything – or much at all – about love. But that’s the whole point. “That moment when you feel like you’re in love, and not just roman tic love, but when it comes to friends and when it comes to passion and jobs, it all comes with discovery,” Aliyah Odoffin, making her TV debut as Amara, told the Daily“EverythingNews. I Know About Love,” which pre miered Thursday on Peacock and is based on Dolly Alderton’s memoir of the same name, follows a group of four college
“Our generation, we were brought up on a diet of romantic love as the No. 1 love and every thing else is second best. That’s definitely not the case,” Appleton said. “All the types of love in your life are just as important as each other and you have to nurture all of it.”

You see the arm talent and you also see his per sonality showing, which is a good thing. It’s a greatJuniorthing.”

Cal does benefit from the return of safety Daniel Scott, a preseason first-team AllPac-12 selection who led the Bears in tackles (82) last season and was tied for the team lead in inter ceptions (three).
