The reasons vary, from the

The power was out for hundreds of thou-

Sen. Bill Dodd was incensed.
Dodd, D-Napa, understood why Pacific
Gas and Electric Co. decided to start cutting
electricity to prevent wildfires. He evacuated
during the 2017 Atlas Fire, which was started
by a PG&E power line. He also championed
legislation that was intended to help the
company — and its customers — withstand
the costs of disasters it caused two years ago.
But PG&E had never blacked out more

THE FACTS about

PUBLIC SAFETY
POWER SHUTOFFS
At PG&E, we call a Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) for one reason—to protect public safety. At the
height of wildfire season, when even the smallest spark can turn into a catastrophic wildfire, PSPS is the
most responsible way to protect the public and our customers.

Why we call a PSPS

PG&E considers a number of factors when deciding to call a Public Safety Power Shutoff, including forecasts
of high winds and gusts, low humidity and the amount of dry fuel from dead trees and vegetation in the area.
Our team of meteorologists closely
monitors the weather and reviews
modeling from the National Weather
Service before calling a PSPS.
Even if it is not windy in your area,
you may still be affected if you are
served by a power line that passes
through a high-wind area.
Last month, many regions saw High Fire-Threat

was no immediate claim of

gunmen from Kurdish-led fighters. The
ministry blamed Syrian Kurdish fighters
for the attack, and called on the interna-
tional community to take a stance against
this “cruel terror organization.” There was
no immediate claim of responsibility. Tur-

to push out Syrian Kurdish fighters, who it
considers terrorists for their links to a

HONG KONG

Chinese news agency attacked amid clashes

By Eileen Ng
HONG KONG — Anti-gov-
ernment protesters attacked the
Hong Kong office of China’s
official Xinhua News Agency
for the first time Saturday after
chaos broke out downtown,
with police firing tear gas and
demonstrators hurling gasoline
bombs as the pro-democracy
movement approached the
five-month mark.
Streets in the upscale Cause-
way Bay shopping area and
nearby Victoria Park were
clouded in tear gas, prompting
thousands of protesters to flee
as riot police moved swiftly to
stymie a rally demanding
meaningful autonomy after
Beijing indicated it could tight-
en its grip on the Chinese terri-
tory.
Police deployed at least two
water cannon trucks. They had
issued warnings to protesters
who occupied the area that they
were taking part in an unau-
thorized rally and were vio-
lating a government ban on face
masks.
Some protesters stormed
Xinhua’s office in the city’s Wan
Chai neighborhood, smashing
windows and the glass en-
trance door, splashing red ink,
spraying graffiti and setting a
small fire in the lobby. Graffiti
that was sprayed on the wall
next to the entrance read “De-
port the Chinese communists.”
Protesters have frequently
targeted Chinese banks and
businesses linked to or that
support China. In July, demon-
strators threw eggs at China’s
liaison office in Hong Kong and
defaced the Chinese national
emblem in a move slammed by
Beijing as a direct challenge to
its authority.
Protesters accuse China’s
central government of infring-
ing on the freedoms guaranteed
to Hong Kong when the former
British colony returned to Chi-
nese control in 1997.
Pro-democracy candidates
running in this month’s district
council elections — who can
meet with groups of 50 or fewer
people without a police permit
— held meetings with voters at
Victoria Park to try get around
the rally ban. One candidate
was pepper-sprayed in the face
and detained after he argued
with police.
In multiple places around
the city, protesters hurled gaso-
line bombs at police, who re-
sponded by firing tear gas and
water cannons. A number of
protesters were detained.
The chaos Saturday un-
derlined the depth of anger in
protests that began in early
June over a now-shelved plan to
allow extraditions to mainland
China but have since swelled
into a movement seeking
broader demands, including
direct elections for the city’s
leaders.
The civil disobedience has
posed a big challenge for Bei-
jing, which vowed Friday to
prevent foreign powers from
sowing acts of “separatism,
subversion, infiltration and
sabotage” in Hong Kong.

Poor hit hardest during shut-offs

Poverty from page A1
low-income people, were also
in the heavily impacted areas.
Many more were likely af-
fected last week, when PG&E
cut electricity to millions of
people in two separate planned
outages.
October’s shut-offs stretched
from the redwood forests of
the North Coast to the oil
fields outside Bakersfield.
They struck some of the Bay
Area’s wealthiest enclaves in
places like Marin County, but
also encompassed isolated,
rural parts of Lake, Butte,
Humboldt and other counties.
In some of those areas, more
than one-third of the pop-
ulation live below the poverty
line. A loss of power can mean
going days without running
water, hot meals or paychecks,
underscoring the unequal
impact of PG&E’s outdated
network of poles and electrical
wires in a state with high pov-
erty rates that has been buffet-
ed by climate change.
“When you kick somebody
that’s already down, it takes
them a whole lot longer to get
back up … and it doesn’t end
when the lights turn back on
— we still have suffering,” said
Lake County Supervisor Tina
Scott at an Oct. 31 public meet-
ing where county and city
officials approved a local emer-
gency proclamation. Local
politicians also sent a joint
letter to the president of the
California Public Utilities
Commission, which oversees
PG&E, describing the over-
whelming hardship that resi-
dents faced during the power
shut-offs.
In the Lake County city of
Clearlake, some residents’
power was out for four days
last week after the town en-
dured a three-day outage earli-
er in October. The poverty rate
of Clearlake, just northeast of
the famed vineyards and re-
sorts in Napa and Sonoma, is
more than double the state
average, according to census
data. About 2,800 students —
nearly 80% of the Konocti
school district enrollment —
qualify for the free or reduced
meal program.
Many Lake County residents
have lived through devastating
fires and recessions that have
prepared them to weather a
crisis: During the most recent
outage people cleaned babies
with wet wipes since the hot
water was out, warmed burri-
tos with candles, and used
chemical heat packs to keep
pet reptiles alive. The resil-
ience of the community, how-
ever, was tested by outsize
hardships.
At the tail end of last week’s
shut-off, many of the busi-
nesses in Clearlake were shut-
tered. The streets were quiet
except for long lines at gas
stations and crowds flowing in
and out of the senior commu-
nity center — a PG&E-run
haven that provided free cof-
fee, coloring books for kids
and power strips.
Eugene Smallwood, who has
insulin-dependent diabetes,
said he lost all his groceries
when his Clearlake apartment
went dark early Oct. 9, spoil-
ing his food and forcing him to
spend his limited cash on ice
to keep his insulin cold. David
Jones’ job hunt was delayed
when access to the internet cut
out. Jessica Howell drove 45
minutes and spent $100 on gas
for an inverter that could
charge devices for her family
of four — money she had set
aside for bills.
“I’d give my left arm to take
a hot shower and not have to
worry about whether I’m go-
ing to have my house on Fri-
day,” said Beth Brackett, a
Clearlake resident who was
worried she wouldn’t be able
to pay November rent. “I bor-
rowed money last week to get
food in our house, and now
that’s all gone.”

Following the historic and
deadly wildfires that PG&E
equipment caused in 2017 and
2018, the utility implemented a
controversial strategy to turn
off large swaths of the electric
power grid when high winds
and dry weather raise fire
risks. Other utilities in the
state have taken a similar ap-
proach, but none has done so
on as large a scale.
Last month, PG&E’s actions
forced more than 2 million
people across much of North-
ern California to endure a
series of prolonged power
outages in an attempt to pre-
vent its equipment from spark-
ing fires.
For Heather Cooley, director
of research at the Pacific In-
stitute, the daylong outage she
experienced in Oakland
amounted to an inconvenience.
Food in her refrigerator
spoiled, but she was able to eat
at nearby restaurants. When
her daughter’s day care closed,
she took paid time off.
“The event, itself, may not
distinguish between those who
are relatively wealthy and
those who are not,” said Coo-
ley, who has studied the
heightened vulnerability to
climate change of low-income
households and communities
of color. “But those disparities
emerge in how hard it can be
for people to recover.”
To measure the impact of
the outages on low-income
Californians, The Chronicle
obtained a list of 231 ZIP codes
from the California Depart-
ment of Social Services where
more than half of the residents
lost power for over four hours
in the Oct. 9 shut-off.
Approximately 50,874
households in those areas
received Supplemental Nutri-
tion Assistance Program bene-
fits, according to social servic-
es data, and 298,016 were on
Medi-Cal, according to state
Department of Health Care
Services figures.
The true number of people
living in poverty in areas af-
fected by the shut-offs is likely
higher, due to relatively low
enrollment rates in California’s
SNAP program and the exclu-
sion of undocumented im-
migrants from the benefit.

Poverty from page A8
National Forest, an area with a
poverty rate 1.5 times higher
than the state average, caused
as many as 2,562 SNAP house-
holds to lose power, according
to state data. A power shut-off
in Humboldt County forced up
to 2,355 Medi-Cal recipients
around the Hoopa Valley to go
dark.
Jessica Bartholow, a policy
advocate with the Western
Center on Law and Poverty,
said prolonged outages can
create a domino effect. Busi-
nesses close and people lose
their paychecks. Schools or
day cares close and people are
forced to pay more for child
care, or meals that would ordi-
narily be served at school.
Those increased and unexpect-
ed costs can threaten a family’s
ability to pay for rent or medi-
cal needs.
“Disaster is hard for anyone
to get through, but it could be
the last straw for people living
in poverty,” Bartholow said.
Bartholow’s group, along
with a network of other ad-
vocacy organizations, has been
trying to get support to vul-
nerable people who have been
affected by the power outages,
including money for lost food.
The California Department
of Social Services automatical-
ly replaced nearly $6 million in
SNAP benefits after the Oct. 9
power outages, but if the same
ZIP codes experienced another
major outage during October,
households will have to apply
to their county to replace the
losses.
In a survey taken by a Hum-
boldt County food bank, one
woman from Willow Creek, an
isolated community about 40
minutes from the closest city,
described losing her power
unexpectedly for nearly three
days. Both of her sons missed
school and the meals they
were normally provided there.
At home, she said, they had no
heat and no way to cook. She
lost $50 to $75 worth of food
and had to reschedule a doc-
tor’s appointment after spend-
ing time and money driving to
the office.
“It was scary,” she wrote.
“We just keep praying and
trying to not stress.”
Other people in Humboldt
who are medically fragile and
depend on food bank deliver-
ies struggled to stay warm as
temperatures dropped near
freezing at night, huddling
under blankets and using gas
stoves for heat. One client was
down to a can of corn before
receiving an emergency deliv-
ery of fresh produce and
canned food. The neighbor of
another client had to be taken
to the local hospital because he
couldn’t keep his diabetes
medication cold, said Heidi
McHugh, outreach coordinator
for the county’s food bank.
The power outages led to the
food bank losing 15 cases of
David Jones of Clearlake looks through a freezer where the food was spoiled due to the power
outage. The shutdown also cut him off from the internet, which he used to look for a job.

milk, 150 cartons of eggs and
750 pounds of other food at the
same time that more people
were in need of them.
“We saw many people who
had never been to the food
bank before,” McHugh said.
“And there was a more urgent
feeling, people saying, ‘I lost all
my food, I can’t afford to re-
place it, and we need some-
thing now.’ ”

PG&E has said that the
outages are necessary to pre-
vent potentially devastating
fires. During the October shut-
offs, the company reported

their own, saying such a no-
tion is “disturbingly clueless
and reeks of ableism and class
tunnel vision.”
“This is a lot more than an
inconvenience,” she said. “It’s
life-threatening. This is naked
abandonment of poor, disabled
and old people.”
PG&E has cautioned that
widespread forced blackouts
may continue at some level for
the next decade, and officials
have encouraged customers to
prepare by finding ways to
keep medication cold, phones
charged and emergency kits
stocked, even when the elec-
tricity is out. Places like Lake
County, which have both high
poverty rates and fire risk, will
likely continue to feel some of
the greatest impacts.

Wind, darkness and fire
Over five separate periods in October, PG&E cut off power to customers in an effort to prevent damaged equipment from igniting wildfires during periods when dry winds blew
over drought-scorched terrain. It may not have been wholly successful: Several fires have already been linked to nearby line malfunctions. But the utility has defended the
blackouts, which put millions in the dark for days, citing dozens of incidents of damage that could have started far more fires.

even unnecessarily.
So he turned to a powerful
state official who regulates
PG&E: Marybel Batjer, the new
president of the California
Public Utilities Commission.
Dodd’s Oct. 11 letter to Batjer
was polite but firm. He wrote
that he was worried about
vulnerable people “facing the
terrifying prospect” of not
being able to operate crucial
medical equipment, and that he
thought PG&E’s outages were
“overly broad and ill-timed,
bringing more suffering to
utility customers than was
necessary.” He urged her to
force improvements.
“I was insanely pissed off,”
he said in an interview.
Batjer wrote back three days
later. She told Dodd she had
“reached the same troubling
conclusion” that PG&E had
“failed in many respects.”
Echoing remarks she made at a
commission meeting, Batjer
said prolonged shut-offs “can-
not be the new normal for Cali-
fornia.”
She had more pointed words
for PG&E executives when she
summoned them to an emer-
gency meeting Oct. 18.
“This is not hard,” Batjer
said. She told PG&E leaders
they had “failed on so many
levels” on “pretty simple stuff.”
Then the blackouts got
worse.
Citing a highly dangerous
and widespread wind forecast,
PG&E began another round of
shut-offs on Oct. 26 that affect-
ed an estimated 2.8 million
people. More than half of them
never regained power before
PG&E said it needed to turn
electricity off again due to more
bad weather days later.
The commission responded
swiftly.
On Monday, before the sec-
ond phase of shut-offs began,
the agency announced it
planned to begin an investiga-
tion into this year’s blackouts, a
strategy Southern California
Edison and San Diego Gas &
Electric have also pursued
because of fire risk. It will also
examine how California’s in-
vestor-owned electric compa-
nies use power shut-offs, in an
effort to limit the impact of
future outages.
The commission’s moves
mark one of California’s most
tangible actions so far in re-
sponse to the unprecedented
October blackouts. Gov. Gavin
Newsom has also weighed in
with sharp words for PG&E,
and said the state could take
over the utility if it cannot fix its
problem.
“PG&E as we know it may or
may not be able to figure this
out. If they cannot, we are not
going to sit around and be pas-
sive,” Newsom said Friday.
“The state will prepare itself as
backup for a scenario where we
do that job for them.”
Batjer, Newsom and other
state leaders say Californians
should not be asked to tolerate
a choice between devastating
fires and frequent, prolonged
blackouts every autumn. But

Marybel Batjer, president of the California Public Utilities Commission (center), leads an emergency commission meeting about
the mass outages. Commissioner Clifford Rechtschaffen is at left, Commissioner Liane M. Randolph at right.
PG&E says shut-offs are a
necessary tool to prevent wind-
storms from causing sparks to
fly from power lines, a risk
worsened by the recent
drought that killed millions of
trees around the state and the
broader impacts of climate
change, which makes fires
more severe. Indeed, even
though the power was shut off
in many areas, PG&E equip-
ment that was still on when
high winds swept through the
region is being investigated as a
possible cause of the Kincade
Fire that started in Sonoma
County, and Contra Costa
County officials said Friday
that power lines caused several
smaller fires this month.
Some observers say the com-
mission has not historically
been known for foresight.
“So much of its action is
reaction,” said Steven Weiss-
man, a former administrative
law judge for the commission.
“What often is missing is the
proactive part where, rather
than just listening to the posi-
tions of parties and deciding
what to adopt related to those
positions, the commission
would actually be taking signif-
icant steps on its own to un-
derstand the problem.”
In May, commissioners ap-
proved a new set of rules about
power shut-offs that apply to
all of the California electric
utilities they regulate. Among
them is a requirement that
utilities turn power off only as a
“measure of last resort” to stop
fires. Commissioners also ap-
proved PG&E’s 2019 wildfire-
prevention plan, which states
that the company is willing to
turn off power for any of its
electric customers.
But Weissman, who is now a
lecturer at UC Berkeley’s public
policy school, said the commis-
sion can be more aggressive in

After its meteorologists give an “all clear,” PG&E says, it may take 48 hours to inspect lines
and restore power. About 400,000 people were still blacked out by the Oct. 26 event by

preventing problems in the
first place.
“Even if the rains start to-
morrow and the fires stop, it’s
only going to be a matter of a
few months before we’re going
to be back in this cycle again,”
he said. “The time to be really
urgent about it is right now.”
Newsom is trying to convey
that urgency. He has bristled at
remarks from Bill Johnson,
CEO of the Pacific Gas and
Electric parent company PG&E
Corp., that the utility may need
to use blackouts at some level
for a decade.
On Thursday, Newsom said
the commission’s “major in-
vestigation” into the recent
blackouts had made “a lot of
progress” in the prior two days.
Newsom also sought to dis-
pel any notion that the commis-
sion is too close to the compa-
nies it’s supposed to regulate.
Former commission President
Michael Peevey left his role five
years ago under a cloud of
criticism that the agency, under
his watch, was too easy on
PG&E and failed to to do more
to make the company maintain
a safe system prior to the dead-
ly 2010 San Bruno gas pipeline
explosion.
“The old days of the Public
Utilities Commission being
cozy to the utilities are just that
— the old days,” Newsom said.
Yet the commission may be
restrained by its structure and
deeply ingrained processes.
“It’s got things that were
designed to be done in a style
that was cutting-edge in the
1890s, but which don’t really
work well in the era of fast-
paced innovation that we have
today,” said Michael Picker,
who succeeded Peevey as com-
mission president until step-
ping down this year.
Another problem, in his
view, is the agency’s broad
responsibilities. The five com-

missioners and their staff are
responsible for regulating not
only the state’s investor-owned
gas and electric companies but
also its telephone, water, rail-
road, rail transit and ride-hail-
ing businesses. Accordingly,
Picker said it’s “horrifically
unrealistic” to expect that the
commission can solve every-
thing.
PG&E’s sprawling electric
infrastructure — well over
100,000 miles of power lines —
cannot be fireproofed over-
night, or cheaply. But the com-
mission could create rules
dictating how the utility must
go about turning off power, and
assess fines for violations. It
could aim to give PG&E extra
reason to do what the utility is
already trying to do: insulating
wires better and installing
more resilient power poles in
high-fire-threat areas, inspect-
ing transmission lines, more
thorough tree trimming, un-
dergrounding of some lines,
and carving the grid into sec-
tions to limit the scope of black-
outs.
PG&E has said that it wel-
comes the commission’s in-
quiry into the blackouts.
Johnson, the CEO, called it “a
good thing” for regulators to
investigate what the company
could do better.
“I think it’s a wise choice,” he
said at a recent press confer-
ence.
In a statement to The Chron-
icle, the company said its lead-
ers “appreciate the feedback”
from the commission, Newsom
and others in state government.
“We’ve taken those requests
and suggestions seriously and
(are) working to implement
many of them for this and fu-
ture (shut-off) events,” the
statement said. “While we
recognize that the scope of
these events is unsustainable in
the long term, it was the correct

Johnson previously suggest-
ed that the state consider shift-
ing the responsibility for decid-
ing whether power shut-offs
are warranted to an agency like
the utilities commission or the
California Department of For-
estry and Fire Protection.
Newsom hasn’t embraced
that idea.

Batjer, who a commission
spokeswoman said was not
available for an interview.
A veteran of both the public
and private sectors who was
most recently the first-ever
secretary of the California
Government Operations Agen-
cy, Batjer is a “very tough, com-
petent administrator” who has
proven “very good at leading
large organizations,” Picker
said.
Now she is challenged with
learning the antiquated work-
ings of the typically slow-to-fix-
things commission while con-
fronting some of California’s
most urgent crises.
Picker said the solutions may
not always lie in more govern-
ment involvement.
“There’s always the potential
that too many cooks in the

said. “Regulators should be
observing and learning, taking
careful notes, but not trying to

ently unless they have a very

CALIFORNIA WILDFIRES

Differences, from spark to response

Kincade from page A1

said Cyndi Foreman, battalion

chief fire marshal of the Sono-
ma County Fire District, who
saw 13 people die in her juris-
diction during the 2017 fires.
“We weren’t going to let that
happen again. ... Everybody’s
heart and soul was into kick-
ing this fire’s butt.”
But even before Foreman’s
crew battled feverishly to save
her hometown of Windsor —
which would prove the turn-
ing point in the Kincade Fire
— several differences had
already emerged between this
blaze and the ones before it.

Forecasting
On the night of Oct. 23,
when the Kincade Fire ignited
in the hills above Geyserville,
it was no secret that strong
winds were coming and dan-
ger loomed.
Radio and TV stations re-
peatedly warned of severe
weather, while Pacific Gas and
Electric Co. turned to its latest
safety strategy: precautionary
power shut-offs. Everyone was
bracing for fire.
While fire forecasts are
nothing new, meteorology has
made huge strides in recent Gabrielle Lurie / The Chronicle

years. The reports this time Brandon Seeley, 11, and his father, Jack Seeley, sit in the truck bed where they would sleep outside a Walmart in Rohnert Park.
benefited from enhanced mod-
eling speeds and newer
weather satellites, including
the federal government’s
GOES-16 and GOES-17 space-
craft.
California forecasters were
able to project the strong
winds that blasted the North
Bay at speeds close to 100
mph a week before they ar-
rived. And they were able to
pinpoint where they were
going to blow.
“Instead of these big blocks
of prediction for temperature
and winds, the modeling has
been ratcheted down to cover
2 or 3 square miles,” said
Brent Wachter, fire meteorol-
ogist at the Northern Califor-
nia Geographic Area Coordi-
nation Center in Redding, a
joint federal and state fire
operation. “We were picking
up on anomalies like the
winds on high mountain ridg-
es that occurred near Mount
St. Helena.”

Strategic tactics
State and local officials
weren’t taking the forecasts
lightly. Across California,
firefighters were put on high
alert. Dozens of strike crews
with Cal Fire, the state’s fire Carlos Avila Gonzalez / The Chronicle

agency, waited in high-risk
forests and grasslands in case
a fire sparked. Air tankers
were readied for flight.
Bryan Baker, a pilot for
DynCorp, which is contracted
to provide Cal Fire’s air sup-
port, was at work 3½ hours
early on the morning of the
Kincade Fire. Based at the
Sacramento McClellan Air-
port, he would be one of the
first to begin dropping retar-
dant on the fast-moving blaze.
“From my vantage point, I
don’t know what else could
have been done to prepare,”
he said.
When the report came in
about 9:25 p.m. that an area
near the Geysers geothermal
plant was on fire, Cal Fire’s
attack differed from prior
years. Instead of crews going
directly to the fire, this time
they covered a much broader
swath in anticipation of the
fire’s spread.
“We have to think out
ahead, as far as where we set
up defenses,” said Scott
McLean, a Cal Fire spokes-
man. “In the past, a 10,000-
acre fire was a big fire for us.
Now we have to plan for an-
other zero on that number.”
Cal Fire’s 8,700-person
roster got a slight boost this
year from seasonal firefight-
ers, allowing more personnel
to get to fires more quickly.
State crews fighting the
Kincade Fire also got help
from local fire departments
throughout Sonoma County,
which were similarly geared
up. As the conflagration grew,
fire agencies from up and
down California joined the
charge, becoming part of a
massive, 5,200-person opera-
tion that eventually included
The River Rock Casino outside Geyserville sits below the flames from the Kincade Fire on Oct. 24.
firefighters from 12 states.
The lack of major wildfires
in other parts of California
and the West made it easier to
add personnel.
“In the Wine Country fires,
you remember, the whole
north state lit on fire that one
night and you had resources
spread out everywhere,”
McLean said. “It was different
here.”
Systems improved
The Sonoma County De-
partment of Emergency Man-
agement blasted alerts to mo-
bile phones at 10:50 p.m. the
night of the Kincade Fire —
less than 90 minutes after the
blaze was reported. Several
more warnings, in English
and Spanish, followed in days
to come as the fire spread.
Those Wireless Emergency
Alerts, which direct residents
in areas threatened by fire to
leave, weren’t sent during the
Wine Country fires. That lack
of action was widely criticized.
“I think everyone is in
agreement that our systems
have improved,” said Barry
Dugan, spokesman for the
county’s Emergency Opera-
tions Center.
Within an hour of the first
report of the Kincade Fire,
sheriff’s deputies were knock-
ing on doors and blaring two-
sound, high-low sirens, a tool
considered highly effective at
getting people’s attention that
wasn’t in place two years ago.
Over the next four days,
county officials extended the
evacuation to an unprecedent-
ed 185,000 people. Some resi-
dents were skeptical of the
order, which included coastal
communities 50 miles from
the fire’s origin. But after the
deadly fires of the past couple
of years, most weren’t second-
guessing the call.
“When we tell the public to
do something now, they don’t
hesitate. They trust us,” Sgt.
Juan Valencia of the Sonoma
County Sheriff’s Office said.
“We felt really confident in
what we did and how we did
it.”
Slow burn
Time was also working in
favor of emergency responders
and fire crews.
While the fire’s defining
winds were similar in
strength to those during the
Camp Fire and the Wine
Country blazes, they weren’t
as steady. Extraordinary gusts
on the first night eased a bit
before returning three days
later and again four days later.
The intermittent breaks
gave firefighters opportunities
to hold the flames off and for
county officials to carry out
evacuations.
Meanwhile, the landscape
presented additional speed
bumps — almost literally —
for the fire. The higher eleva-
tions where the blaze ignited
were covered in brush and
forest, including especially
combustible knobcone pine,
but there was less of it down-
slope.
“Once you get to the west,
the fuels are less continuous
and you have much less steep
terrain,” said Mark Tukman,
an environmental scientist
who runs a vegetation map-
ping business in Santa Rosa.
“It’s easier to fight the fire
there.”
Vineyards, farmland and
pasture — open land with
fewer trees and less brush —
in the Geyserville area also
provided fuel breaks. In addi-
tion, homeowners have be-
come more diligent about
trimming vegetation and mak-
ing their properties less sus-
ceptible to fire.
The 2017 Wine Country
blazes, including the Tubbs
Fire that tore into Santa Rosa
with lightning speed, didn’t
offer the same reprieve, Tuk-
man said. Flames raced
through shrubs and forest
thick with stands of Douglas
fir into populated areas.
“There was a lot more fuel
than in the western part of the
Kincade Fire,” he said.
Lessons learned
Last weekend in Windsor
when Foreman, the battalion
chief, arrived with her Sono-
ma County crew to confront
the head of the Kincade Fire,
she knew things were differ-
ent.
Two years earlier, she stood
no chance of stopping the
Tubbs Fire when she was
dispatched to the Larkfield-
Wikiup community just north
of Santa Rosa. All she could
do was help people escape the
flames.
This time, she remembers
being at the edge of town and
looking into her truck’s rear-
view mirror — she saw a
sprawling line of engines
heading into battle.
“It was almost like a bugle
call for a cavalry,” she said
“This neighborhood was liter-
ally saturated with fire appa-
ratus. It was very encourag-
ing.”
She and hundreds of other
firefighters knew they had to
halt the fire here — or it
would race into Windsor and
across Highway 101, where it
would establish a new, worri-
some front.
“We were not going to let it
jump the freeway,” she said.
And they didn’t. As the fire
pressed against Windsor for
days, particularly at night
when the winds picked up,
only a handful of buildings
were lost.
As of Saturday, the Kincade
Fire had destroyed 175 homes
across Sonoma County. It’s no
small toll, but it pales in com-
parison with the nearly 14,000
homes lost in the Camp Fire
and roughly 5,000 lost in
Wine Country two years ago.
And more important, no
one died.
“Having all of the intel,
paying attention and making
courageous choices to get
people out of harm’s way gave
us the fighting chance,” Fore-
man said.
“I don’t know that we did
anything wrong in the past,”
she added. “I just think we’ve
learned a lot from (other
fires). If we don’t learn our
lessons, we’re not doing our
job.”

Insight
By Jaime O’Neill
M
ore than a million Americans
were uprooted by natural
disasters last year.
My wife and I were two of them. A
year ago this week, I was awakened in
my Magalia (Butte County) home by a
call telling me about smoke billowing up
from a neighboring ridge, enough
smoke to be worrisome on a morning
when winds were strong and changing
directions erratically.
So began a year that would challenge
us in ways we could never have imag-
ined during the 12 hours we spent flee-
ing the fire, a journey to Sacramento
that under ordinary circumstances
would have taken less than two hours.
We’re still dealing with the upheaval,
with all that was lost, all that has
changed.
We fled the fire in our little Hyundai,
with the three cats we’d managed to
corral into their carrier crying through-
out that long and anxiety-filled drive to
our daughter’s house. Even as we drove
away, with smoke heavy in the sky and
fire not far away, we still thought we’d be
coming back, if not that night, at least
within a few days.
Losses that could not be replaced
with cash included our cat Callie. I still
see her in an image my memory etched
on that morning when I called to her,
saw her look at me, then dart away,
never to be seen again. Lots of people
lost pets on the Paradise ridge. It is a sad
thing to look at the websites devoted to
people still looking for their animals, to
scan the pictures of much-loved pets
still being sought, found or not yet
claimed.
The things we owned were reduced to
ash, then scraped off the property where
we once ate, slept and celebrated birth-
days, Christmases and special moments
with family and friends. The heavy
equipment did the work of “cleaning”
our lot. An unending caravan of big
trucks has been carrying tons of rubble
and poisoned soil off to places un-
known.
The landscape that surrounded our
home is dismal now, a place where fir
trees once rustled overhead, deer and
raccoons came for regular visits, and the
birds sang in oak trees. All now gone.
There is no time of life when losing
your home and your community is go-
ing to be easy, but being displaced by
disaster when you’re 76 years old comes
with its own particular woes. Unexpect-
ed change is perhaps more challenging
for us. We are more easily confused, and
the array of new technologies makes it
especially hellish to navigate a world
that has made much of what we knew
obsolete.
Why ballot-language reform keeps failing
D JOHN
avid A. Eisenberg of San Francisco was among the readers who reacted to
last week’s column about how California Attorney General Xavier Becerra
has followed his predecessors’ penchant for skewing the title and summa-
ry of citizen initiatives to help or hurt their chances. Eisenberg agreed that the
solemn duty should be shifted to an independent source such as the nonpartisan
Legislative Analyst’s Office.
“How can we make this happen?” Eisenberg asked, in a common refrain. “How
do we do it?” weighed in Tim Bohan of San Francisco.
The reason it is not happening is obvious: Democrats hold supermajorities in
the Senate and Assembly and are not inclined to strip the duty from one of their
own who can advance their agendas in this deep-blue state.
Unless, of course, they are pressured to play fair.
So I decided to get answers to the
question: What would it take to sum-
mon action in a Legislature that sum-
marily rejected such proposals in 2017
and 2019? What I found, somewhat
surprisingly, was cause for optimism.
The cornerstone of any significant
reform is the attention of good-govern-
ment groups that have the credibility
and networks to elevate an issue the
establishment would prefer to ignore or
simply quash. They were the driving
forces behind initiatives in which Cali-
fornia took the power away from the
legislators to draw district boundaries
(Proposition 11 in 2008 and Proposition
20 in 2010) and gave it to a citizen com-
mission.
I reached out to leaders of three of
the most prominent such groups —
Common Cause, California Forward,
League of Women Voters — and the
need to address the state’s recent histo-
ry ballot-language doctoring was on
the radar of each.
The reality is that the title and short
summary of a ballot measure has “a

all that was lost — and changed.
Still, many survivors had it far worse.
We were insured homeowners, but
some renters were uninsured. Others,
with kids, had to find new schools,
sometimes nearby, sometimes thou-
sands of miles away.
We all know people who have spent
the past year shuttling from place to
place in search of work, affordable hous-
ing, something more permanent than
what they’d found immediately after the
fire. Younger people lacked the safety
net of assured retirement income. Jobs
and businesses had gone up in smoke.
All of us, regardless of age, had to start
over from scratch.
In the weeks following the fire, there
was lots of advice to be had, some useful,
some not so much. We were told to be
wary of our insurance companies,
warned that the insurance man was not
our friend. Fortunately, that did not turn
Forward. It’s on the group’s checklist
for reforms of a process of direct de-
mocracy that was conceived a century
ago as a counterweight to special-in-
terest choke hold on the state Capitol —
and has come to be dominated by mon-
ied interests determined to get their
way without compromise.
“We have to say this every time: The
way that we do direct democracy in
California is unlike how it’s done any-
where else in the world, and is sub-
stantially more consequential,” Wein-
berg said. “So every aspect of this pro-
cess demands scrutiny and reform.”
One element of California’s initiative
process that is not unique is the manip-
ulation of the language to achieve a
desired result.
“When I was in Chicago, it was the
Democratic machine in the state that
always played this game,” said Rey
López-Calderón, executive director of
California Common Cause. He said
there is “too much room for mischief”
in the status quo.
López-Calderón cited Becerra’s title
and description of a gas-tax repeal two
years ago as perhaps the most egre-

out to be true for us. Our insurance
carrier came through in thoughtful and
timely ways, helping us over all the
hurdles, easing the difficulties of finding
(and affording) a temporary rental and
acquiring essentials like chairs and
spatulas, plates and paper clips.
And we were going to need those
paper clips.
There was no end to the forms we had
to fill out and collate, not only for insur-
ance, but also for new doctors, new
medical suppliers, new landlords, new
tax data, new everything related to the
record keeping required by ordinary
daily life.
Displacement ranks high on the list of
what makes disaster so disastrous. We
lost all sense of place, for anything and
for everything, including ourselves. A
year later, everyone who fled Paradise is
still dealing with that sense of disori-
DIAZ
gious example. It had dire warnings
about how the measure would elim-
inate road repair and transportation
funding — but the Democratic attorney
general could not find the room in 100
words to forthrightly tell voters it re-
peals a 12-cent gas tax passed by leg-
islators.
As I noted in my previous column,
Becerra is not alone in his assist for the
home team. Attorneys general from
Kamala Harris and Jerry Brown (Dem-
ocrats) to Evelle Younger and Dan Lun-
gren (Republicans) have put partisan or
ideological spins on ballot language.
“The issue is one the league cares
about,” said Helen Hutchison of the
League of Women Voters. “We believe
that the title and summary should be
written to ensure that the voters are
provided with clear, plain language and
unbiased information.”
Reform could take one of two routes.
One would be a citizen initiative to have
the legislative analyst or another in-
dependent arbiter write the ballot lan-
guage. The obvious peril with that
approach is that the attorney general
would be writing the title and summa-
ry to take away his or her authority.

entation. On one recent day, an errant
fear crossed my mind. “Oh my God,” I
thought, “I’ve got to call Mom and let her
know we’re safe.” My mother died 10
years ago. Most of the fire victims I’ve
spoken to have told similar tales of last-
ing disorientations.
But there were offsetting kindnesses,
gestures made by strangers who eased
the pain and confusions. A piece I wrote
for The Chronicle in January about the
loss of all our books resulted in books
being sent to us from a dozen or more
readers, not only from the Bay Area, but
even from a book store in Southern
California, all of them saying they hoped
their gifts would serve as the seeds for a
new personal library. And they did.
Like rocks dislodged from a hillside,
the survivors have been seeking an
angle of repose, a place where we could
stop falling after tumbling so far for so
long. In our particular case, we will be
moving into a home of our own again in
just a few more weeks.
That home will not be on the Paradise
ridge.
We are too old to rebuild. It would
take too long, and the obstacles seem too
daunting. And though we loved our
little house in the pines, no attempt at
replication could replace what was lost.
To pursue it seems emotionally foolish.
Sixteen years of digging holes, planting,
pruning and landscaping can’t be re-
placed in the time left to us, nor can the
pictures on the walls and other artifacts
of our lives.
To say the past year has been chal-
lenging would be a monumental un-
derstatement. But we’ve come through
it, with good days and bad, tears and
wan smiles. In a few weeks, we will be
moving into a new place of our own in
Sacramento, not far from our daughter,
close to the medical care my wife re-
quires though quite a ways from the
deer, the raccoons and the more man-
ageable traffic we had known up in
Butte County.
A great many fellow Californians
fleeing this year’s fires are now em-
barked on their own long ordeal of tum-
bling, seeking their new angle of repose.
It seems like “deja vu all over again,”
with high winds, people once again in
flight from fire, houses burning and
lives disrupted.
It would be comforting to think that
experiences like ours — and theirs —
were anomalies, freakish and rare. Yet
that is not the grim reality on the warm-
ing planet we inhabit.
The best that this old survivor can
offer more recent victims is the assur-
ance that there is life after loss.

CONGRESS
The smearing of Katie Hill
By Breanna Zwart
and Debbie Mesloh
T
he events surrounding the resig-
nation of Rep. Katie Hill follow-
ing the publication of her private
photos were startling in their speed,
complications and viciousness. Elected
in 2018 at the age of 32, Hill became the
first openly bisexual woman to repre-
sent California in Congress, and the
first woman and Democrat to serve the
district since its creation in 1990. Once
in Congress, she quickly became a
rising star, tapped to serve as vice-
chairwoman of the House Oversight
and Reform Committee, a high-ranking
position for a freshman to hold.
While Hill abruptly ended her con-
gressional career, the results of these
events have left many grappling with
their ambiguity.
One thing we are clear about: Katie
Hill is a victim of cyberexploitation,
and it is a form of domestic violence.
Like other forms of domestic violence,
cyberexploitation is meant to control,
shame and hurt.
In the midst of allegations that Hill
had a consensual relationship with a
campaign staffer (which she acknowl-
edged) and a member of her office staff
(which she denies), nude photos of Hill,
most apparently taken before she was
serving in Congress, were leaked to a
right-wing outlet. Hill said that her
husband, whom she is the process of
divorcing, has been the driver of this
abusive smear campaign. Conservative
outlets in particular sensationalized
Hill’s bisexuality, emphasizing that she,
her husband and her campaign staffer
were potentially a “throuple” who took
multiple vacations together. The photos
and such descriptions have been shared
widely on social media.
Hill maintains she resigned not be-
cause she violated House rules out-
lawing relationships with subordinates,
but due to the fear “of what would
come next” from this “unprecedented
brand of cruelty” at the hands of her
husband and the conservative news
outlets that published the intimate
photos.
This situation is precedent setting. It
is the first time that lawmakers have
had to juggle a nude photo scandal of

this magnitude: potentially hundreds of
photos disseminated at lightning speed
via conservative outlets and spread on
social media. And, as future genera-
tions, digital natives with extensive
digital footprints, run and win office,
the opportunity to exploit, threaten or
damage someone via the release of
compromising photos has the potential
to become commonplace.
Women have been the most common
victims of “revenge porn” — technically
known as nonconsensual pornography
— which thanks to Democratic Sen.
Kamala Harris is illegal under Califor-
nia law (Harris led the work to pass the
state law as California’s attorney gener-
al). Hill has said she notified Capitol
Hill police to investigate potential legal
violations by those who posted and
distributed the photos.
We should be clear that Hill’s rela-
tionship with a younger campaign
staffer was a lapse in judgment. While
this relationship was consensual, work-
place relationships with power imbal-
ances can lead to exploitation or ma-
nipulations. And, an investigation was
needed into the alleged affair with her
legislative director. The House of Rep-
resentatives’ code of official conduct
explicitly bans sexual relationships
between members, delegates or resi-
dent commissioners and their sub-
ordinates.
However, this type of public sexual
shaming of a powerful woman by polit-
ical opponents is as old as the smear
sented to voters at the ballot and that
impartial analysis and descriptions of
measures should be the norm.” He said
he would be “reviewing the matter
further” to assess the chances of
achieving the two-thirds threshold of
both houses that would be required to
put a measure to voters.
Mullin suggested he might reach out
to Assemblyman Kevin Kiley, author of
two unsuccessful previous measures,

campaigns that alleged Catherine the
Great engaged in bestiality or that por-
trayed Mary Magdalene as a prostitute.
In modern times, the idea of a female
politician having a consensual affair or
practicing polyamory or being a “cou-
gar” is viewed as a moral failure that
undermines her credibility.
Since the San Francisco Commission
on the Status of Women was created in
1975, it has focused on combating vio-
lence against women in any form. In
1998, San Francisco was the first city in
the nation to adopt a local ordinance
enshrining the principles the Conven-
tion on the Elimination of Violence
against Women, a landmark interna-
tional human rights treaty.
This new form of domestic violence
is something we will be taking a close
look at.
In one of her last acts as a congress-
woman, Hill posted a video last week
vowing to “take up a new fight” against
the kind of attacks she faced.
“Some people call this electronic
assault, digital exploitation; others call
it revenge porn,” Hill said. “As the vic-
tim of it, I call it one of the worst things
that we can do to our sisters and our
daughters.”
We agree. We will be joining her in
that fight.
Breanna Zwart is president of the San
Francisco Commission on the Status of
Women. Debbie Mesloh is the immediate
past president and a current commissioner.
about reviving the issue in the 2020
session.
One upshot is clear from my con-
versations with the good-government
groups: It’s not going to happen with-
out a push from California voters. They
deserve it. They should demand it.

No surprise with President Trump’s nasty tactics

Regarding “Shameful smearing of a
soldier” (Editorial, Oct. 30): Why be
surprised that President Trump and
his allies decided to smear the rep-
utation of Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman,
an Army officer and the National Secu-
rity Council’s top Ukraine expert, who
testified that a meeting between Trump
and Ukrainian President Volodymyr
Zelensky was offered as a quid pro quo
for political probes?
Trump, who avoided service in the
Vietnam War due to a highly question-
able claim of bone spurs, previously
smeared the late Sen. John McCain,
who did serve in that conflict and was
held as a prisoner of war. Trump
shamefully claimed that McCain wasn’t
a real war hero and asserted that he
liked people who weren’t captured. For
this so-called commander in chief to
now attack Vindman, an Iraq War
veteran who received a Purple Heart,
shows that he is only capable of bully-
ing those who truly personify a word
that historians will never associate
with him: courage.
Marcus Finnerman, San Francisco
Boycott BART
Panhandling is a nuisance, and pay-
ing BART customers should not have
to run a gantlet of beggars to use the
system. BART riders need to take one
day and boycott the system en masse in
protest of BART’s complete disregard
for the safety and comfort of their pay-
ing customers.
Maybe then BART would get the
message. It won’t happen, because
those paying riders have jobs they have
to get to, or meetings, or appointments,
or planes to catch.
Paying BART riders don’t have the
luxury of loitering. With the BART
board’s failure to act in the interest of
riders in this matter, I strongly object
to being accosted at a station that I pay
large amounts to support with my tax
dollars and equally large parking and
ticket fares (and have for years) only to
be aggressively annoyed and “hit up”
by those who don’t.
Their “life, liberty, and pursuit of
happiness” is interfering with mine,
and I pay the bills, darn it.
Carol Putman, Clayton
PUC shares blame
Pacific Gas and Electric Co.’s cul-
pability in mismanaging its capital and
maintenance programs that have led to
the power crisis in this state is without
question. But doesn’t a modicum of
blame extend to the California Public
Utilities Commission? Where was this
five-member board when it came time
to review PG&E’s safety practices and
record? Where was this board when it
came time to review and augment their
deficient capital and maintenance pro-
grams?
Isn’t the role of the PUC, as regulator
in chief, to protect us against just this
sort of thing? Why is it that it has taken
eight years, since the San Bruno disas-
ter, which killed eight and destroyed
several homes, for the PUC to finally
order an examination into PG&E’s
safety practices? Why didn’t this exam-
ination happen in 2010, after San Bru-
no?
Why did it take the Tubbs Fire and
the Paradise Fire disasters to finally
merit an examination? There’s no ques-
tion PG&E needs a complete reorgani-
zation, which may include re-evalua-
tion of its ownership structure. But it’s
equally important now to examine the
PUC, which is literally asleep at the
switch.
Thomas Lloyd-Butler, San Francisco
Freedom to criticize
Concerning “Clinton attack’s shades
of McCarthyism” (Insight, Oct. 27):
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clin-
ton has every right to question Rep.
Tulsi Gabbard’s policy positions to-
ward Russia, a country that directly
interfered in our 2016 presidential elec-
tion.
After Gabbard visited Syrian dictator
Bashar Assad in 2017, she was reluctant
to condemn him after criticizing U.S.
policy in the Middle Eastern nation,
and occasionally seemed to favor Rus-
sian President Vladimir Putin’s in-
volvement there.
If free speech rights have allowed the
U.S. president to call Clinton a “nasty
woman” and to lead his supporters in
chants of “Lock her up!” at his cam-
paign rallies, and Gabbard is free to
call the winner of the 2016 popular vote
“the queen of the warmongers,” then
Clinton has the same right to question
and criticize Gabbard’s policy positions
and dangerous rhetoric concerning
Syria, Russia and other autocratic re-
gimes.

Concern over candles
If Pacific Gas and Electric Co. is so

Diablo winds compound dangers of longer dry season

By Kurtis Alexander
Climate change or no climate change, fall in Northern
California has always been a time of big winds and dev-
astating wildfires.
The fast-moving Oakland firestorm killed 25 people
and burned more than 3,000 homes in October 1991. In
late September 1964, the Hanley Fire raced the same
path toward Santa Rosa as the deadly Tubbs Fire did
two years ago. And in October 1999, the Jones Fire blew
violently through Shasta County; it still ranks as one of
the state’s most destructive blazes.
But in recent years, autumn fires paired with strong
winds have been even more relentless. The occasional
blasts of air known as Diablo winds whipped up the
stubborn Kincade Fire in Sonoma County. They also
fanned last year’s unprecedented Camp Fire in Butte
County and the Wine Country firestorm a year earlier.
Winds continues on A18

Why California continues to burn

By Kurtis Alexander and John Blanchard

There’s little doubt that wildfires are worsening in California. Seven of the state’s 10 most destructive fires have occurred over the past five years.
Five of the 10 biggest fires have occurred this decade. No single factor is driving the trend, and fire experts continue to debate the principal rea-
sons. But it’s clear that many circumstances have converged to create a deteriorating situation. Here are some drivers of the problem.

Vulnerable homes
Most homes in California are not
designed to withstand fire. Building
codes developed in 2008 require
new homes to incorporate protective
features, but most of the state’s
housing stock was built long before
the rules took effect. Retrofitting can
be very expensive.
How to create a defensible zone
ZONE 1
Clear dead leaves and plants from within
30 feet of the home. Trim tree limbs to at
least 6 feet above the ground. Clear all
dead limbs, leaves and other vegetation
from the roof and rain gutters.
ZONE 2
In the area within 100 feet from the home,
cut grass to a maximum height of 4 inches.
Allow ample space between trees and
shrubs so flames won’t jump easily between
them. Consult a landscape specialist to
learn how wide that space should be — it
varies from yard to yard.
PG&E infrastructure
Many recent fires, including the deadly 2018 Camp Fire in
Butte County, were sparked by faulty electrical equipment.
Pacific Gas and Electric Co. has said its grid is not prepared
for worsening fire conditions, and fireproofing its 125,000
miles of power lines is both expensive and time-consuming.

Regrowth of weeds
While wildfires are generally good for the health
of California’s wildlands — they clear out dense,
debilitated vegetation — they can also create room
for invasive grasses and brush to move in. Often,
these newcomers are more prone to burning.

increasingly overlap the dry

will get longer in coming de-

for the expected loss of wind,
as far as fire danger goes.
“Dry vegetation will persist

A plane drops water over a hill where firefighters worked to contain the Kincade Fire in Geyserville on Oct. 24. Winds whipped the blaze through Sonoma
County even while PG&E plunged nearly 3 million people into darkness. More than 5,000 firefighters battled the fire, which was mostly corralled by midweek.

What we learned from fires,

outages and evacuations
By Rachel Swan
Fire season has a ruthless but predictable rhythm in California: the
dry air, the battering winds, the out-of-control blazes that descend
from mountains or leap from canyons to destroy communities.
The fires get more ferocious as we struggle to adapt, taking ex-
treme measures to beat back nature. In the past month, these forces
converged as never before.
Pacific Gas and Electric Co. shut off power to millions of residents
to prevent its equipment from sparking flames. Cities tried new alert
systems to rapidly evacuate people from their homes. Health experts
dismissed the air-filter masks that were so ubiquitous last year,
advising residents just to stay indoors.
The rapid spread of the Kincade Fire in Sonoma County pro-
vided a critical test, not only for the state’s disaster response but
its land use and infrastructure.
Some residents have resigned themselves to a future in which
homes, when not evacuated altogether, will run on generators for
several days out of the year. Others are calling for drastic chang-
es, including a state takeover of PG&E.
Here are 15 takeaways from a week of deepening crisis:

enough to put many people over the edge. Evacu-

The quest for affordable housing has pushed

people out of San Francisco, Berkeley and Oak-
land and into places like Lake County, where they
are more exposed to risk. Ninety-five percent of
the state’s fires are caused by humans, Cal Fire
Division Chief Jonathan Cox told reporters during
the Kincade Fire. And many experts warn that it’s
not just power lines running into the wilderness
— it’s people carelessly tossing cigarette butts,
cutting trees with chain saws, fixing cars, roast-
ing hot dogs on barbecue grills. That’s the danger
of having so many people settle along what is
known as the urban-wildland interface. More
blazes ignite and spread to residential develop-

Climate change is making things
worse.
Choking heat waves, long dry spells,
fire season that extends late into the year — all of
these extreme weather conditions are caused or
exacerbated by climate change. Scientists blamed
the heat that enveloped California last year on a
shift in the jet stream, which was allowing weath-
er patterns to stagnate, rather than sweeping
them along. Emissions from cars, power plants
and factories trap sunlight and warm the atmo-
sphere. Those high temperatures, combined with
the protracted dry season, create a combustible
environment for the Diablo winds that lash
Northern California each autumn.

The fires are a big test for Gov. Ga-

Fires and outages were all but absent
from the 2018 gubernatorial campaign, and yet
these intertwined crises have created what could

thick with housing, and existing landowners are
deeply invested in their properties. Hardening the

or putting it underground — would take years
and cost billions of dollars that the state doesn’t
have. Some have pressed for a state takeover of

13
PG&E improved its communication
— with some stumbles.
PG&E’s clunky, crash-prone website
added another layer of chaos to the first wave of
outages in October, signaling to many that the
company was ill-prepared to cut the lights to
thousands of people. Its call centers were also
overwhelmed, leaving many people without crit-
ical information about when the power would go
off and when it would come back on. County
officials complained PG&E failed to convey in-
formation and intentionally overstated areas like-
ly to lose power during the first series of outages.
The utility appeared to improve during the most
recent outages, building a new website and pro-
eling up and down the state, stopping at evacua-
tion centers, control rooms and news briefings,
blasting PG&E while sympathizing with disaster
victims and residents whose power was cut. That
approach will work during his first year in office,
said Democratic strategist Nathan Ballard, who
worked in Newsom’s mayoral administration in
San Francisco. But next year, the governor will
have to show that he’s doing everything he can to
keep the lights on in one of the world’s largest
economies. For Newsom, who may have aspira-
tions for a future presidential run, that could
mean restructuring the leadership at PG&E, ap-
pointing an independent auditor, advocating for a
climate change or wildfire-related bond, or re-
PG&E, and Newsom has called for more bids
from cities and private companies. As these catas-
trophes continue, people might wind up fleeing
California — or at least leaving the areas that are
ripe for fire. The market might compel that out-
ward migration before the state sets any new
policies, said Baiter, of the East Bay Economic
Development Alliance. Soon it may be impossible
for homeowners in wildfire zones to qualify for
insurance. But that raises a new question, he said.
“Literally, where do people go?”

What you need to know about PG&E outages

Pacific Gas and Electric Co. cut
power to millions of people to
reduce the risk of an electrical
line or another piece of equip-
ment sparking a damaging blaze
amid dangerous fire weather.
Here’s what you need to know
about the possible outages:

How long do power shut-offs

last?
Power is restored in stages,
location by location. During shut-
offs last month, PG&E said work-
ers might need up to five days to
restore power, but most homes
and businesses were back up and
running in two days. The compa-
ny must inspect all lines for dam-
age before restoring power.

Why did PG&E start doing

preemptive power shut-offs?
PG&E instituted the precau-
tionary outages to prevent its
equipment from starting wild-
fires in October 2018, a year after
some of its power lines were
blamed for the devastating Wine
Country wildfires. CEO Bill John-
son told state regulators that his
company is working to make
forced power outages unneces-
sary, but the goal could take a
decade to accomplish. Santiago Mejia / The Chronicle

How does PG&E decide wheth-
er to issue a shut-off?
PG&E considers whether red-
flag fire danger warnings have
been issued. Humidity levels must
generally be below 20% and
winds above 25 mph, with gusts in
excess of 45 mph. Officials also
consider the amount of dry vege-
tation and use observations from
PG&E field crews and meteorol-
ogists.
How should I prepare for a
power outage?
Public safety and PG&E offi-
cials advise residents to prepare
for life without electricity by:
1 Keeping phones and other
electronics charged while also
having backup charging methods
available.
1 Building or replenishing emer-
gency kits that include flash-
lights, spare batteries, a first-aid
kit, emergency food and water,
and cash.
In this long-exposure photo, a tree burns along Highway 128 in Calistoga as winds send embers flying during the Kincade Fire.
1 Learning how to manually
open your garage door.
1 Unplugging electrical appli-
ances to avoid overloading cir-
cuits and preventing fire hazards
when power is restored.
1 Storing drinking water — 2
gallons per day per person and
more for pets, as water delivery
services could be affected by a
shutdown.
Can solar panels spare me
from a power shut-off?
Customers with solar systems
are still connected to the PG&E
power grid, so if PG&E cuts off
the power for safety, their power
gets shut off automatically. Peo-
ple who have a home battery
paired with their solar system can
avoid full outages.
Should I buy a generator?
It depends how much you
want to spend and how badly
you need electricity. Portable
generators, often used at tailgate
parties and farmers’ markets,
typically run between $500 and
$1,000 and offer a couple of
outlets capable of powering a
refrigerator, keeping a light on
and and charging phones and
computers. Make sure you un-
derstand what you’re buying,
whether it will support what you
need, and how loud it will be.
Why doesn’t PG&E have un-
derground power lines?
Putting power lines under-
ground is expensive — $3 million
per mile, according to a 2017
estimate from PG&E, versus up
to $800,000 for overhead lines.
That’s just for smaller, lower-
voltage distribution lines; long-
distance transmission lines are
even costlier. Underground lines
would also be harder to fix in an
earthquake. But PG&E has put
some lines underground; in May,
the utility said it would put lines
underground in Paradise, the
Butte County city destroyed by
the 2018 Camp Fire.
It’s not windy in my area. Why
is my power still cut?
A long-distance power line
that delivers electricity to you
may pass through a location
where it’s very windy, or forecast
to become windy, according to
PG&E, which is turning off some
of these high-voltage lines,
known as transmission lines.
Will my cell phone still work?
Cell phone carriers had said
service should still work during
outages, but most actually had
problems during recent shut-offs.
What should I do with food in
my refrigerator?
Meat, poultry, fish and eggs
should always be stored in tem-
peratures 40 degrees Fahrenheit
or colder, and frozen goods
should be zero degrees or colder.
Officials advise people to keep
refrigerator and freezer doors
closed as much as possible dur-
ing outages. Refrigerators can
safely store food — and keep
items cold — for about four
hours. Freezers can keep their
temperature for about two days
if unopened. Dry ice or blocks of
regular ice can help store food.
How can I get updates if I’m
not a PG&E account holder?
PG&E has an alert system that
notifies non-account holders of
power outages in a specific area.
Company officials said they will
try to alert people 48 hours, 24
hours and just before power
outages. To sign up, go to

Are the Machines
Taking Over? Artificial
Intelligence Today
and Tomorrow
PROFESSOR:
Kartik Hosanagar
Wharton School of the
University of Pennsylvania
Undergraduate Excellence in
Teaching award

In this class, Wharton professor and tech entrepreneur Kartik Hosanager

discusses how artificial intelligence is well on its way to running nearly
every aspect of our lives. The technology embedded in web-enabled
devices, algorithms, and the programs that power them, make a staggering
number of everyday decisions for us: from what products we buy, to
where we decide to eat, to how we consume our news, to whom we date,
and how we find a job. Professor Kartik Hosanagar will survey this brave
new world and reveal the potentially dangerous biases they can give
rise to as they increasingly run our lives. He will make the compelling
case that we need to arm ourselves with a better, deeper, more nuanced
understanding of the phenomenon of artificial intelligence. This class will
provide an entertaining and provocative look at one of the most important
developments of our time.

WASHINGTON — Rep. Mark
DeSaulnier carries a small pill in his
breast pocket. It’s the medicine that
keeps him alive.
The routine of carrying the drug
in his shirt helps the Concord Dem-
ocrat remember to take his medica-
tion. But his daily struggle with
cancer is never far from his mind in
his legislative work.
DeSaulnier, 67, was diagnosed
with stage four chronic lymphocytic
leukemia in July 2015, just months
after arriving in Washington after
more than two decades as a Contra
Costa County local officeholder and
state legislator.
“I came to Congress, and I got

After five people died in a
shooting at a Halloween party at
an Airbnb rental house in Orin-

pany announced changes to its
rental policy Saturday that aim
to remove problem properties
from its listings.
The company said it plans to
increase screening of “high-risk”
reservations for its rentals and
create a “rapid response team”
that will help keep renters from

virtually assured of being elected Tuesday. It’s
the other races on the ballot, however, that will
determine whether it’s a real win for her or a
hollow victory that could spell trouble for
years to come.
“She’s playing a high-risk, high-reward
game,” said political strategist Jon Golinger,
who managed Jane Kim’s unsuccessful cam-

There are two key races on the ballot: dis-

Ten days in a new job is usually just enough

trict Attorney Suzy Loftus, the past two weeks
have been a high-profile trial run for the perma-

packed a lot in.

than she had on the campaign trail.
In perhaps the most unsubtle Halloween
costume of the week, she dressed as Wonder
Woman, a founding member of the Justice

“I even have the shield,” she said with a grin.
Just about everything Loftus has done in of-

from her predecessor, the progressive George
Gascón. He focused more on big-picture plans to

rights activist Dean
Preston.
“If she wins both, she
wins big. If she wins one
and loses one, it’s a
mixed bag. If she loses
both, she’ll have to do a
political reset,” Golinger
said.
And in this political
card game, Breed comes
to the table with a mixed
hand.
Recent polls show that
while 56% of voters like
Breed, only about 33%
are happy with her per-
formance as mayor. Polls
also show that more than
half of voters — 57% —
feel the city is on the
wrong track.
So Breed needs to
show results in the com-
ing year.
But for her to advance
her carrot-and-stick
approach to getting the
homeless and the men-
tally ill off the streets, or
pursue a crackdown on
public drunkenness and
open drug use, or step up
the prosecution of petty
crimes like auto break-
ins, she needs an ally in
the district attorney’s
office.
And the outcome of
the D.A.’s race is far from
certain.
Going into the election,
the four-way race ap-
pears to be wide open,
with Nancy Tung, a
deputy district attorney
in Alameda County,
staking out a law-and-
order position on prose-
cutions; judicial reform
candidate and Deputy
Public Defender Chesa
Boudin running on a

“reform” platform that
calls for fewer incarcer-
ations; and Deputy At-
torney General Leif
Dautch and former Po-
lice Commission Presi-
dent Suzy Loftus, who
come down in the mid-
dle.
The mayor’s public
safety agenda would
mesh well enough with
Loftus, Tung or Dautch
— not so with Boudin,
who has made it clear
that he will not crimi-
nalize the homeless by
prosecuting quality-of-
life crimes like public
camping, prostitution
and public urination.
Breed supports Loftus
and appointed her inter-
im district attorney when
George Gascón resigned
to run for the same job in
Los Angeles. The ap-
pointment was widely
seen as an attempt to
boost Loftus in the public
eye, and it was met with
significant blowback by
critics who saw the ap-
pointment as machine
politics.
Breed faces another
Scott Strazzante / The Chronicle
test in her former super-
visorial district, where
Brown is in a close race
with Democratic Socialist
Preston.
A Preston win would
erode what little support
Breed has in the progres-
sive-dominated Board of
Supervisors. Plus, it’s
personal. Preston ran
against Breed when she
was a supervisor, and he
probably will be a vocal
opponent of Breed at City
Hall if he wins.
Another must win for
Breed is Measure A, the
$650 million affordable
housing bond she’s back-
ing in a big way.
The Yes on A cam-
paign’s polling shows the
bond with about 70%
support among voters,
just above the two-thirds
majority needed to pass.
Most people familiar
with San Francisco vot-
ing patterns are pre-
dicting victory.
Breed herself is a sure
winner in her race, but
given the recent polling
numbers, insiders will be
watching the vote count
Jana Asenbrennerova / Special to
The Chronicle
closely.
Here’s why:
She narrowly
squeaked out a 50.5 %
win in the final-round
showdown with progres-
sive former state Sen.
Mark Leno in last year’s
special election following
the death of Mayor Ed
Lee. This time out she’s
facing only token opposi-
tion from five little-
known candidates, but
she needs to put big
points up on the board.
A 65% to 70% showing
would be a solid affirma-
tion of Breed’s agenda.
However, a 55% vote —
like Mayor Lee won
when he ran largely
unopposed in 2015 —
could spell trouble, just
as it did for Lee. He saw
his approval ratings
plummet following the
election as the city con-
tinued to grapple with
homelessness, jammed
traffic and the affordable
housing crisis.
And shock waves
would follow.
“Being mayor of San
Francisco is hard in the
Scott Strazzante / The Chronicle
best of circumstances,”
state Sen. Scott Wiener
said. “People expect
immediate results on
intractable issues, and
we are going through
tough times.”
Wiener, who has
worked with the mayor
on a number of issues,
said Breed’s poll num-
bers are more about
frustration with chal-
lenges facing the city and
less about Breed’s perfor-
mance, which he charac-
terizes as “very strong.”
Whatever the case,
Breed is betting big this
time out.
“She could have stayed
out of the races, but she
chose to put herself on
the line,” Golinger said.
“A lot of politicians do
everything possible to
avoid that kind of risk.”
Big spenders: More
than $2 million has been
spent on the race for San
Francisco district at-
torney, with the biggest
chunk coming from in-
dependent expenditure
committees financed by
law enforcement.
The biggest player is
the San Francisco Police
Officers Association,
which has launched an
11th-hour, $669,867 me-
dia blitz against progres-
sive, judicial reform can-
didate and public defend-

On the other side, a
committee with the

$188,767 to support him.

Loftus gets a few days to show tough stuff
Knight from page B1
tion over the city’s deteri-
orating quality of life.
“People are really fed
up with what’s happen-
ing in San Francisco —
they don’t feel safe,”
Loftus said. “They don’t
feel like the district at-
torney’s office has been
accountable to the people
who live here. It’s been
high on excuses and not
focused on results.”
Loftus was named
interim district attorney
by Mayor London Breed
after Gascón quit Oct. 18
to run for the same job in
Los Angeles, and she’s
taken full advantage of
the short time in office.
But the trial run has been
long enough for her to
draw fire from her com-
petitors for some of her
decisions and for borrow-
ing their campaign ideas.
Loftus invited me to
shadow her for an after-
noon, starting at the
decrepit Hall of Justice
where part of her staff
remains as the office
gradually moves over to
its gleaming new head-
quarters at 350 Rhode
Island St. A white shuttle
with purple seats runs
every half hour, whisking
her and other attorneys
back and forth.
“Hello everybody!
How’s it going?” Loftus
said as she greeted those
unfortunate lawyers still
stuck in the old digs,
which feature seeping
sewage, lurching eleva-
tors and mice. “Keep up
the good work!”
Loftus had just
watched one of her pros-
ecutors’ closing argu-
ments in a homicide case.
Before that, she sat in the
front row as prosecutors
successfully persuaded a
judge to hold Jose DeJe-
sus Rodriguez in jail
without bail after he was
arrested Oct. 24 for alleg-
edly shooting his girl-
friend, Valeria Villago-
mez, in the head. It was
the city’s 32nd homicide
of the year.
“Part of what you do as
district attorney is show
up for what’s important,”
Loftus explained.
Loftus also showed up
for the arraignment of a
suspect in a notorious
July beating in China-
town in which three men
knocked a senior citizen
unconscious and stole his
gold Rolex watch. Police
arrested one of the sus-
pects last week after
obtaining security cam-
era footage.

7, 2019. She was born Mari-
lyn Diane Fini on October
22, 1933, to Thomas G. Fini
and Esther J. Beck Fini. She
was their only child.
She attended Oakland
public schools and was
proud to be a graduate of
Castlemont High School,
Class of 1951. After gradu-
ating from the University
of California at Berkeley
in 1955 as a history major,
Marilyn began a teaching
career with the Oakland
Unified School District that
lasted over thirty years,
beginning at the very
elementary school that she
had attended. She was a
lifetime member of the Cal
Alumni Association.
Marilyn married her high
school sweetheart Ron
Beach, an officer with the
Oakland Police Depart-
ment. After a few years
they amicably divorced and
remained close friends until
his death.
For ten years, during her
summers off from teaching,
Marilyn lived in Hawaii, and
she especially loved Kauai.
After retiring from
teaching Marilyn travelled
to a number of European
countries and was especially
drawn to her father’s native
Italy, and went back several
times.
Marilyn loved jazz and
classical music. Listening to
jazz was a passion of hers
and throughout her life she
attended performances and
collected recordings. Mari-
lyn followed the jazz scene
at clubs in San Francisco’s
Fillmore District as well
frequenting Oakland’s jazz
spots. And when visiting

Marilyn’s love of her

in her work at the White
Elephant Sale of the Oak-
land Museum of California,
where for many years she
managed the annual sale’s
music department.
Another of Marilyn’s
passions was her walking
groups which familiarized
her with, seemingly, every
corner of the Bay Area.
Marilyn was close to her
brother-in-law Dan Beach,
his wife Shirley, their daugh-
ter Diana Beach-Torp (who
was like a grand daughter),

half years Marilyn resided
at Piedmont Gardens in
Oakland and was grateful
for the the care that she
received from the devoted
staff.
We are truly blessed to
have had Marilyn in our
lives. Her kindness, loyalty,
thoughtfulness, sharp wit
and wisdom are missed.

Burk Edward Delventhal
November 12, 1942 - October 26, 2019
Died unexpectedly in San
Francisco, surrounded by
family, on Saturday, October
26, 2019. Buck, as he was
affectionately known, was
born on November 12,
1942, in Oakland, Calif., to
Leo and Eleanor Delventhal.
He was raised in Piedmont,
graduating from Piedmont
High School in 1960. He
attended UC Davis, gradu-
ating in 1965, followed by
UC Hastings College of the
Law, where he earned his
J.D. in 1969.
In June 1970, he joined
the San Francisco City At-
torney’s Office, embarking
on what would become a
nearly 50-year career as a
Deputy City Attorney for
the City and County of San
Francisco. Buck took pride
in working at his beloved
City Hall, where he was
regarded by all as a beacon
of integrity, dedication and
unparalleled legal bril-
liance. He helped pursue
groundbreaking work on
behalf of all San Francis-
cans and played a role in
nearly every civic and legal
issue facing San Francisco
during his years as a public
servant. Buck, who led
the City Attorney’s Office’s
Government Team since its
inception in the late 1970s,
served under four City At-
torneys, and provided coun-
sel to 10 Mayors, countless
Supervisors and numerous
Department Heads. He
argued landmark cases in
the California Supreme
Court, California Courts
of Appeal and the Ninth
Circuit Court of Appeals.
He was frequently heard to
say how much he looked
forward to coming to work
each day, not knowing what
interesting new issue might
find its way to him. For
Buck, this was not a job, it
was a calling.
Buck was a lifelong
learner and teacher, whose
insatiable curiosity and
fascination with languages,
history, science, and the
natural world were infec-
tious and endearing. In
recent years, he served as
an Adjunct Professor at UC
Hastings, where he taught
a course on State and Local
Government Law. He took
great joy in inspiring the
next generation of attorneys
to pursue careers in public
service and was a mentor
to many of them. Buck was
truly a teacher to us all, with
his most profound lessons
imparted by his example
of empathy, humility and
boundless optimism. He
lived his life fully, and with a
deep understanding of the

Scott John Drexel, Sr.
passed away peacefully
on Oct. 16th at home in
Westerville, OH, surrounded
by those he loved so well.
Born in Iowa in 1949, he
spent his boyhood in Pomo-
na, CA. He graduated from
USC in 1971, UC Hastings
in 1974, and spent a tireless
45 years in disciplinary law.
He lived in Burlingame for
many years. He is survived

years; daughter Jill and

in-law Gina (nee Cioffi),
and granddaughter Ilaria

December 24, 1967 - October 27, 2019
Chris passed away
unexpectedly but peace-
fully at the age of 51,
with his cousin Mary at his
side. Chris was born in
Burlingame, CA in 1967. He
loved classic cars and his
friends were his “family”.
He was preceded in death
by his Mother, Father and
older Brother. He is sur-
vived by his loving cousins
and his Aunt and Uncle.
priceless gift that each new
day represents.
Buck was an athlete,
whose pursuits included
running, bicycling and Bay
swimming, the latter as a
passionate and revered
member of the South
End Rowing Club in San
Francisco. His exploits as a
member of the South End
included countless pre-dawn
swims with his fellow Sou-
thenders, numerous Golden
Gate and Alcatraz swims,
surviving a near-death brush
with hypothermia in Decem-
ber 1987, and coaxing many
an unsuspecting soul over
the years into joining him
for a morning dip in Aquatic
Park’s bracing waters.
Over the last 15 years,
Buck spent most weekends
with his wife, Monica Mar-
tin, at their home in Bolinas
overlooking Duxbury Reef,
where the two spent days
tending the garden, work-
ing on an endless stream of
small construction projects
dreamed up to deplete his
equally endless supply of
energy, enjoying time with
family and friends, and
basking in the raw, natural
splendor of the land and
sea.
Buck is survived by
Monica, of San Fran-
cisco, his brother, Mark
Delventhal, of Piedmont,
his son, Ivan Delventhal
(Giscela Delventhal-Wong),
of Piedmont, and daughter,
Juliette Delventhal (Pawel
Kruk), of Bolinas, and his
four grandchildren, Diego,
Zoë, Lucas and Theo, who
were the light of his life.
He was preceded in death
by his first wife, Claude
Delventhal, and brother
Kent Delventhal.
A memorial and celebra-

Richard Joseph Dunn
Age 95, of San Francisco,
CA passed away 29 October
2019. Dick Dunn was born
on April 5, 1924 in Chi-
cago, IL, to parents Richard
Joseph Dunn and Margaret
Jennett Dunn. He recalled
with fondness serving the
Mass presided by Cardinal
Pacelli in 1936 at Sacred
Heart Church, Newton, MA.
Cardinal Pacelli was later
elected Holy Father, serving
as Pope Pius XII from 1939.
Graduating from Boston
Latin School in 1942, he
then studied at Yale Univer-
sity. His studies ceased with
WWII as he joined the 96th
Infantry Division and was
sent to the South Pacific
and Leyte Island to begin
MacArthur’s Philippine
campaign. He was severely
wounded on the Naha Shuri,
Yonobaru Line in Okinawa
in 1945. He received the
Purple Heart, Bronze Star,
Philippine Liberation, South
Pacific, and Combat Infantry
Badge. He resumed studies
at Yale University, and
graduated 1948W. He went
onto study law at Harvard
University, receiving his law
degree in 1951. He worked
as a tour guide in the sum-
mer. On his final trip, from
New York through Canada,
he met the love of his life
Marygrace Calhoun. They
became engaged that fall
while he was completing his
law studies. They married in
October 1951 and moved to
Dallas, TX where he worked
as a trial attorney. He left
law and moved to Califor-
nia, completing an MBA at
Stanford University 1956.
He began his long invest-
ment counselor career with
Scudder, Stevens and Clark
in 1956, retiring as a partner
in 1984.
Dick was deeply involved
in national and local
politics; receiving one of the
coveted 400 gold invita-
tions issued to California
for President Kennedy’s
inauguration. His commu-
nity service continued with
St. Stephen’s, Mercy High
School and the Sisters of
Mercy.
Dick was invested as a
Knight of the Sovereign
Military Hospitaller Order
of St John of Jerusalem of
Rhodes and Malta in 1978.
The Order soon became
a core part of Dick and
Marygrace’s public witness
of their faith, and their
service to the Church and
the sick and the poor placed
in her care. Dick organized
the first participation of
the Western Association in
the Order’s International
Pilgrimage to Lourdes. He
participated in this pilgrim-
age 23 times and saw it
grow to invite more than 50
malades each year as guests
cared for by members of
the Western Association.
After holding many im-
portant committee responsi-
bilities, Dick was elected
President of the Western
Association in 1994 and
was later the first American
invested as a Member in
Obedience. As President,
he developed the first
formation program in the
United States for prospec-
tive members and fostered
a deep commitment to
spiritual development
and direct service among
members of the Western
Association. He trav-
eled the world frequently
representing the Western
Association at international
pilgrimages and confer-
ences. He was a key figure
in enacting substantial
reforms to the International
Constitution and Code of
the Order in 1997, expand-
ing the opportunities of
Dames to participate in the
life and work of the Order,
and allowing all Knights and
Dames to enter the Class of
Obedience.
In 1999 Dick was elected
to the Sovereign Council of
the Order in Rome, the first
United States citizen to hold
that high office. During his
five years on the Council he
and Marygrace were highly
respected counselors on
several matters, especially
as they related to the Order
in the United States. Upon
his retirement from the
Sovereign Council, he was
XXXXX
raised by the Grand Master
to the dignity of Bailiff
Grand Cross of Honor and
Devotion, the first member
of the Order in the Western
Hemisphere to be granted
that privilege.
Beyond the many impor-
tant formal offices and other
responsibilities he held, per-
haps Dick’s most important
and lasting legacy in the
Order will be the inspiration
he provided as mentor to a
generation of Knights and
Dames who looked to him
to understand the essential
charism of the Order, and
its foundations in personal
integrity, honor, and espe-
cially humility. He believed
that personal sanctification,
and the work of the Order
in service to Our Lords the
Sick and the Poor, guided
by a devotion to Our Lady,
defined the Order’s unique
charism, and the strength of
his witness continues to in-
spire members of the Order
who now seek to emulate
his example.
In San Francisco he
was honored for his
tremendous service to the
Catholic Church through the
Archdiocesan Ring of Char-
ity, Cathedral’s Assumpta
Award 1996, Archdiocesan
Loaves and Fishes 2005, and
Boston Latin School Dis-
tinguished Graduate 2008.
In 2003 he was knighted
by the Papacy as a Knight
Commander with star of
the Order of St Gregory
the Great at the Vatican for
virtue and notable accom-
plishments on behalf of the
Church and society.
Throughout his years,
Dick was an avid reader,
and walked the parks and
trails of San Francisco and
his many travel ventures,
accompanied by family and
friends. He was a man of
deep faith, dedicated and
generous as a husband,
father, grandfather and
mentor. In a challeng-
ing career, honesty and
personal integrity were his
hallmarks. As a father, he
encouraged his children to
find their gifts and passions
and live their own lives, four
of whom became teach-
ers. Dick is survived by his
children: Richard (dec’d wife
Debbie), Marianne Daly
(husband Mike), Anthony,
Gregory (wife Lorraine), and
Noelle Petersen (husband
Scott). In addition, he is
survived by grandchildren:
Richard J. Dunn, Delight
Dunn, Marli Dunn, Justus
Dunn, Jarek Dunn, Mayse
Dunn, Connor Petersen,
Andrew Petersen, Luke Pe-
tersen; his brothers: Robert
J. Dunn and Edwin R. Dunn;
and many nieces, nephews
and extended family. He
was preceded in death by
his wife, Marygrace and
siblings: William Dunn,
Margaret M. Dunn, Kathleen
Dunn Brand, Rydell J. Dunn,
and John J. Dunn.

James J. Walsh, III
November 11, 1930 - October 9, 2019
Beloved husband of
Lavern, cherished father
to Michelle Matthews (Bill)
and Kelley Werner (Craig),
and adored “Papa Jim” to
grandchildren, Eric Werner,
Kristin Werner Geissel (Levi),
Katie Werner, Meghan Mat-
thews, and Ian Matthews,
passed away on October 9,
2019.
Jim was born in Kansas
City, MO, as a son of Kath-
ryn and James J. Walsh, II.
He lived a very happy child-
hood in Kansas City with his
mother and grandmother.
He earned a Bachelor of
Journalism Degree in 1951
at the University of Mis-
souri.
His first news job was at
KWOS in Jefferson City. He
did a little bit of everything-
reporting the news, playing
music, and giving the farm
report. Landing that job,
he would say, was the best
thing that ever happened to
him, as he met Lavern Snel-
len there on a blind date.
The happy couple was
married on October 4, 1952.
Jim never was one to brag,
except about his beautiful,
perfect wife, and later his
pride regarding his children
and grandchildren.
The couple soon moved
to Kansas City where Jim
worked as a television
newscaster on KCMO. In
1953, Jim joined the Naval
Reserve for two years as a
journalist at the Academy
in Annapolis, MD. While
there, their first daughter,
Michelle, was born.
After completing his
service, they returned to
Kansas City. He resumed
his work at KCMO, and had
a second daughter, Kelley.
While working full-time, he
went to the University of
Kansas City, Missouri Law
School, earning a Bachelor
of Laws degree in 1961. He
ranked third in his graduat-
ing class, passed the Mis-
souri Bar and was appointed
to the Attorney General’s
Honor Graduate program to
work in the Department of
Justice in Washington, D.C.
under Robert Kennedy’s
administration.
In 1962, the Walsh family
moved to California. Jim
practiced law at Pillsbury,
Madison, and Sutro, where
he became a partner in
Patricia Powell Fieger
Patricia Ann Barganier,
was born on Oct 22, 1929
in Wichita, Kansas, to Jetta
Powell (1897-1971) and
Edward Pierce Barganier,
Sr. (1884-1972). Crediting
with devoted gratitude her
aunt Nora (Powell) Gray, her
brother Edward P. Barganier,
Jr., and her grand-father
William H. Powell, Patricia
survived a difficult child-
hood. At 16, she ran away
from home to enroll herself
at Saint Anne’s School, paid
tuition in cash for one se-
mester at “finishing” school,
where, apart from academ-
ics, she learned riding skills
and made friendships whose
memory lasted a lifetime.
Following her return to
Chicago, at 17, she married
Clarence Edelson (1909-
1985), a defense attorney
from a family of attorneys;
at 28, Daniel G. Arnstein
(1890-1960), owner of the
Terminal Cab Corporation,
and associate of John Hertz.
At age 31, at home in SF in
the 1960’s, she was married
to Frank Atlass (b. 1930- ),
pioneer family in radio &
television communications.
In a move East in 1967,
Patricia married Raymond
R. Herrmann, Jr. (b.
1921 - ), of the beverage
spirits industry, and “in
her extremely late 20s”, in
1990, she met and married
Aaron Gary Fieger (b.1925
- ) with whom she shared 28
full and happy years in NY,
Paris, Switzerland, and the
Bahamas.
Throughout her life,
Patricia relied upon the es-
sential friendships of Evelyn
Hartfield Leeds, Irene (King)
Dempsey, Ruth (Adler)
Lehrer/Tankoos, Marion &
Bill Solari, Marcia & Lewis
Schott, and Buck Class.
Patricia is survived by her
B5
1973. Jim and Lavern
resided in Tiburon, CA.
While winning many trials
for IBM, Standard Oil, and
other clients was important
to Jim, some of his proudest
accomplishments were
through his pro bono work
for St. Luke’s, Legal Aid So-
ciety, the Bar Association’s
Early Settlement Program,
and San Francisco Adult Day
Health Network - to name a
few. Jim was also honored
and thrilled to be on the
Marin County Grand Jury,
and proud of the work they
completed.
Jim found great joy in
life’s big and little events.
He loved to travel with his
wife, family and friends.
He was passionate about
playing bridge, enjoyed
playing tennis until his 80’s,
and socializing daily at the
dog park while walking his
beloved dog, Luke.
Jim’s professional
achievements were many,
although being a humble
man, he would never men-
tion them himself. If asked,
he would say his greatest
accomplishments would be
his happy marriage, raising
great children, enjoying
many special times with his
grandchildren, and creating
a close-knit family. He will
always be remembered for
his kind and gentle ways, his
quick wit and smile, and his
good sense of humor. He
made everyone around him
feel loved, appreciated, and
important. The feelings
were mutual. He will be
missed but never forgotten.
A celebration of life for
Jim Walsh will be held on
Wednesday, November
13, 2019 at 2:00 p.m.at St.
Stephen’s Episcopal Church
in Belvedere, CA. In lieu of
flowers, please donate to
the charity of your choice.

In her last years, she
rested comfortably in
her beautiful NYC home,
protected and surrounded
by the love and tender care
of her husband and family,
and by a circle of special
caregivers who added much
to the quality of her days.
She died bravely, though
she had had to live not
without fear. May she rest
in peace.

Jerry Goldberg
October 12,1934 - October 22, 2019
Jerry Goldberg, a top
notch husband, father,
grandfather and friend to so
many of us, died suddenly
on Tuesday, October 22.
Jerry had just turned 85,
having been born October
12, 1934 in St. Louis, Mis-
souri.
A few basics about Jerry’s
many accomplishments.
After growing up in the
Midwest, he graduated
from Harvard College with
honors in 1957, and went
on to obtain an architectural
degree from Washington
University in St. Louis. He
was awarded a Fulbright fel-
lowship to study and work
in Amsterdam. Returning
to the U.S. in 1963, Jerry
joined the architectural
firm of Skidmore, Owings
and Merrill in San Fran-
cisco, where he worked
for decades as an urban
planner helping to shape
cities throughout the world.
In 1967 he married Kate
Farnsworth, had a beautiful
daughter, Jen, and never
moved away from the city
he loved. In his work
Jerry focused on shap-
ing housing, spaces and
transportation to enhance
community feeling in urban
environments — to make
city people’s lives better
and happier. After leaving
Skidmore in the late ‘80’s
Jerry worked for BART,
various community groups
and Parsons Brinckerhoff,
always with the same focus
on creating livable and
workable urban spaces.
Jerry’s devotion to his com-
munity was demonstrated
by his long membership on
the governing boards of
the Fort Mason Foundation,
and the French-American
International School where
Kate taught and from which
Jennifer graduated.
The two pillars of Jerry’s
life were love and art. Love
for Kate, his companion of
53 years, for his talented
daughter, Dr. Jennifer An-
nunziata, for her husband,
Jim, and for their three chil-
dren, Max, Peter and Eliza.
Nora P. Haymond
May 15, 1928 - Oct 30, 2019
Nora Haymond passed
away peacefully on

91. Nora is survived by
her daughter Jean, Jean’s
husband Jon Sugarman and
grandsons Max and Ross.
She is also survived by her
son David, David’s wife
Nancy, grandson Peter and
granddaughter Grace. Nora
is also survived by many
nieces, nephews, cousins
and friends.
She is predeceased by
husbands Pete Haymond
(1957) and Don Howard
(1996) and grandson David
Haymond (2011).
A Rosary will be held on
Tuesday 11/5/19 at 7pm at
Claffey & Rota Mortuary in
Napa. The Funeral Mass will
take place on Wednesday

Nora was a devoted
mother and grandmother.
Edwin W. Smith Jr.
May 15, 1929 - October 22, 2019
Edwin W. “Chief” Smith
Jr., 90, of Benicia passed
away peacefully Tuesday,
in Concord. He was born
in San Francisco and lived
there until 1963, when he
moved to Concord. Ed
served as a Navy Reserv-
ist from 1949 to 1953,
where he received his initial
training in Firefighting. Ed
then served as a Firefighter
for the City and County of
San Francisco for 34 years
before retiring as Chief’s
Operator, in 1984.
Ed loved sailing, riding
the train, rooting for the
Warriors and 49er’s, and his
frequent trips to Huckle-
berry’s.
He is survived by his
children Christine Howard,
Michael Smith, Patrick J.

Jerry was a committed and
serious artist, painting and
drawing first in watercolor,
then acrylic and oils, then
in ink and pencil — treat-
ing the human figure,
landscapes, still lives, and
his neighborhood. Among
the places that moved him
deeply were the peace and
landscaped beauty of Stow
Lake in Golden Gate Park,
the wild exuberant design
and environment of the
Sea Ranch on the Sonoma
County coast, and the
drawing studio of Michael
Markowitz where Jerry had
happily drawn for almost 40
years.
No obituary can ad-
equately capture Jerry’s
kindness, wisdom and wit,
generosity and artistic tal-
ent. His family and friends
will miss all of that more
than we can say. We are left
with important satisfactions:
that Jerry achieved all that
he wanted from life, that he
died with his dignity intact,
and that we know that he
loved us as he knew that we
adored and respected him.
Jerry’s family gives their
deepest thanks to the
wonderfully loving and
professional staff of the
Buena Vista Manor House
in San Francisco who all
cared for him with such skill
and kindness, and to Kurt
Gilbertson who guided him
there. Donations in Jerry’s
name may be made to

memory of Jerry will be held

She loved all of her ex-
tended family and friends.
She was a world traveler,
a retired principal, and her
circle of friends was wide
and far. She will be missed
by all, but her feisty spirit,
her sense of humor, and
her determination not to
be defined by tragedy will
remain a legend. She will be
missed.

Chronicle on October 24th,
2019 at the age of 76.
Born to two Azorean
immigrants in Fresno, Judy
was the fifth of six Freitas
children. She spoke rarely of
her early childhood except
to complain that the house
was cold in the winter and
that her mother had once
repurposed her underwear
into a mop. When their
family relocated to Santa
Cruz at the age of six, she
found her life much more
agreeable.
She graduated from Santa
Cruz High School in 1961,
attended San Francisco
State University and earned
her teaching credential in
mathematics, beginning a
lifelong quest for Big Prime,
the elusive largest of all
prime numbers.
While teaching at Jef-
ferson High School in Daly
City, she met history teacher
David Smith and said, “He’ll
do,” marrying him shortly
thereafter. In May 2019,
they celebrated 50 years
of marriage, so she had
to concede that Dave was
more than adequate. She
especially cherished their
travels: their year in Europe
& Morocco spent in a VW
bus, their journey to all 50
states, and their annual
sojourns to Philo, CA. They

Emily, who have each given
them two grandchildren:
Everett & Cate and Carver

Judy passed away from
complications from Multiple
Sclerosis, a disease with
which she was diagnosed
at age 39. She never let her
impairment affect her play-
ful sense of humor or stop
her from doing the things
she loved, like quilting,
gardening, listening to live
music outdoors, traveling in
search of changing leaves,
and threatening to yank off
surfers’ towels to see “male
butts” every time she drove
along the Great Highway.
She worshipped the sun
and spoke often about how
if more people valued it
like she did, there would be
fewer wars. With that, she
asks that rather than attend
funeral services, you sit in
the sun today and read the
obits, which is what she
would have wanted to do if
she were still with us.

Yvonne de Chavigny
Segerstrom
May 4, 1928 - October 18, 2019
Yvonne de Chavigny
Segerstrom, a Los Angeles
artist, arts philanthropist,
retail pioneer and member
of the Segerstrom fam-
ily, owners of South Coast
Plaza, died peacefully at
home in Los Angeles on
Oct. 18.
She was born in San Fran-
cisco, Calif. on May 4, 1928
to Oscar and Anlo Perry. A
sister, Anlo ‘Cinders’ Mc-
Farland, predeceased her.
She attended private school
at the Westover School
in Stanford, Conn. and
Hacienda Del Sol in Tucson,
Ariz., where she had horses
and loved to ride.
Yvonne was a debutante
in San Francisco and dated
Merv Griffin. She had a
lifelong love of the arts and
worked in a V.A. hospital
teaching art to injured
servicemen after World
War II. She met her future
husband Henry Segerstrom
at a wedding in Palo Alto,
Calif. They were married
in 1950 in Paris by Pierre
de Gaulle, mayor of the
city and brother of Charles
de Gaulle. They had three
children: Andrea, Toren and
Anton.
In 1953, she joined the
Santa Ana Bridge Club and
remained an active member
until the last years of her
life.
In the 1960s, she studied
at the Laguna Art School
with the painter Rodger
Kuntz, who became a close
friend. She also worked as
a volunteer and docent at
the newly formed Newport
Harbor Art Museum, and as
a volunteer at the Assis-
tance League and the Ebell
Club in Santa Ana.
In 1967, she participated
in the ribbon-cutting of the
family’s newest venture,
South Coast Plaza. With
a keen eye for fashion,
she was a co-owner with
her husband of a Cour-
règes boutique, the first
free-standing interna-
tional designer boutique in
Orange County, located at
South Coast Plaza in 1975.
They opened and operated
boutiques by Halston and
Yves Saint Laurent in 1976.
Yvonne oversaw the fashion
buys and attended shows
in Paris.
It was during the late
1970s that Yvonne intro-
duced her husband to the

94th birthday.
Marge, a native San
Franciscan, was born to
Edwin and Paula Wampner.
A graduate of George

she received a B.A. degree
in Liberal Arts from U.C.
Berkeley. She married
Charles Roberts on Sept.
16th, 1951; they recently
celebrated 68 wonderful
years together.
After living in San
Francisco, Marge and Chuck
moved to Salina, KS while
Chuck was stationed at
Smokey Hill AFB. Marge
and Chuck returned to San
Francisco where their first
child was born, then moved
south to Santa Clara, “Valley
of the Heart’s Delight”, to
escape the SF fog. Fol-
lowing the births of three
more children, the family of
six moved to their second
home in Santa Clara in 1960,
where they have resided for
nearly 60 years.
While raising her family,
Marge worked in the Santa
Clara Unified School District
school libraries, kept her
family active in church
events, was an active leader
in Girl Scouts and loved to
knit ski sweaters. Marge
worked as a bookkeeper
for Brooks Optronics and
eventually took a full-time
position at Lockheed. She
and Chuck retired from
Lockheed together and en-
joyed years of traveling with
friends, spending time at
the family cabin, and square
dancing with The Katydids.
Marge also enjoyed taking
cooking classes, playing
the piano, reading, doing
crossword puzzles, research-

claimed works.
In 1978, she divorced and
moved to Los Angeles. She
attended Otis Art Institute
of Parsons School of Design,
graduating in 1982 with a
Bachelor of Fine Arts de-
gree. During this time she
was also a volunteer and
docent at the newly opened
Museum of Contemporary
Art in Los Angeles.
In 1982, Yvonne acquired
a residence on the Île
Saint-Louis in Paris. For the
remainder of her life, she di-
vided her time between her
residences in Paris and Los
Angeles and used her Paris
apartment as a home base
for years of extensive travel.
She spoke fluent French
with a Parisian accent.
Yvonne established a
studio in Los Angeles in
1986 on Traction Avenue
in the area that is now the
Arts District of Los Angeles.
She was an accomplished
painter, printmaker and
jeweler, and had shows of
her paintings in Los Angeles
and Paris.
During her lifetime, she
was a member of the Los
Angeles County Museum of
Art Director’s Circle and the
Museum of Contemporary
Art’s Directors Forum. She
also was a long-time sup-
porter of the Venice Family
Clinic and Salvation Army.

Dr. Roger Tennyson
March 30, 1936 - September 18, 2019
Lloyd Roger Tennyson
passed away peacefully,
with his family by his side,
on September 18, 2019 fol-
lowing his long and coura-
geous fight with melanoma.
Roger was born in
Santa Barbara and after
graduating from Santa Paula
High School in 1953, made
the last-minute decision
to change from a pre-law
curriculum at Stanford to
pre-dental studies at the
University of California.
While at Cal, he enjoyed
being in the Cal Band, and
remained an extremely loyal
supporter of all things Cal
Bears. After completing
his pre-dental program at
Cal, Roger then attended
UC Medical Center, San
Francisco (now UCSF),
where he had the good
fortune of having his future
wife, Mina, assigned to him
as a patient.
After graduating from
dental school in 1959,
Roger and Mina married in
October of that year. Roger
then went on active duty
with the United States Navy
as a dentist aboard the
carrier USS Bennington and
after serving three years,
separated from the service
and the couple settled in
San Mateo, soon after the
birth of their first of two
sons. It was at that time that
Roger opened his practice
of dentistry for children.
Hobbies and the friends
they generated were a large
part of Roger’s life. They
ranged from his days where
he would organize and run
model airplane contests,
all the while competing
alongside his sons, restoring
and riding motorcycles,
including a ride around the
Joseph Sigona Sr.
Age 92, passed away Oc-
tober 28, 2019 surrounded
by his loving family at his
home in Millbrae.
Joe (Dad, Gramps) was
born in San Francisco on
August 26, 1927, attended
Mission High School, and
eventually acquired his GED
diploma. Joe served in the
US Navy towards the end
of WWII and was honorably
discharged in 1946.
Joe married Eleanor
Calabro (died 1987) in 1949,
and is survived by their 2
children, Joseph Jr (Kristine)
and Noreen Ridings (David),
4 grandchildren and 7 great
grandchildren, as well as
many nieces and nephews.
Joe remarried in 1988
to Frances Parle who is
his surviving spouse. He is
also survived by Frances’s
daughters, Laurie, Andrea
White and Mary Shulen-

mountain course on the Isle
of Man during TT week.
Following his retirement in
2002, his hobbies included
restoring and showing his
1953 Lincoln Capri and
sailing with the South Beach
Yacht Club in San Francisco,
where he was honored to
serve as the club’s Commo-
dore in 2002.
Roger always found the
greatest joy with those
closest to him, and although
these last few years his
focus had been on caring
for his beloved wife Mina,
(whom he lost just one short
year ago to Parkinson’s
Disease), he still found the
time to bring his incredible
patience, wisdom, humor
and intelligence to the
lives of so many. We will
often remember the man
who made our fear and
pain go away, not only as
a dedicated and talented
dentist to so many, but as a
dear friend, husband, father
and grandfather.
Roger was preceded in
death by Mina, his wife of
59 years; he is survived by
his sons John and Scott (Pa-
mela), and his granddaugh-
ter Shae. In lieu of flowers, a
donation to Mission Hospice

on Saturday, November

Paul Morris Epp
March 28, 1941 - November 1, 2019
Paul Epp, loving hus-
band, father, brother and
grandfather, passed away
at the age of 78 on Novem-
ber 1, 2019, surrounded by
family and friends at UCSF.
A native San Francis-
can, Paul was the only
son of the late Louis and
Gertrude (“Gertie”) Epp.
He is survived by his wife
Patricia, sons Scott (Kitzia)
and Matt (Caitlin), daughter
Casey, sister Arlene Krieger
(Steve), grandchildren,
nieces, nephews and
stepchildren.
Paul graduated from the
University of Arizona in
1963, where he made life-
long friends. Shortly after
graduating, he returned to
San Francisco and founded
Biltwell Development Co.
in 1964, making significant
contributions to the Bay
Area by building schools,
warehouses, libraries, and
hospitals.
Paul’s family was a con-
stant source of pride, and
he loved all of them dearly.
He was married to his late
wife, Dee-Dee, for over
twenty-five years. Dee-Dee
adored him for his coura-
geous heart and playful-
ness, and the two brought
each other endless joy. Paul
and Dee-Dee raised three
children together, whom
Paul loved fiercely. He was
fortunate to meet an in-
credible woman later in life,
Patricia, to whom he was
devoted. They shared a
strong bond and enjoyed a
wonderful marriage of over
ten years with their dogs at
their home in Belvedere.

Impeachment a winner for Dems? Don’t bet on it
Brown from page B1
Trump — is out there already.
People know how they feel
about it, and if you believe the
polls, they’re pretty evenly
split on whether the president
deserves to be thrown out of
office.
The only potential drama
before last week’s vote was
whether there might be any
movement, whether any Re-
publicans would see it Demo-
crats’ way.
Looks like they don’t.
And when it gets to the
Senate, it will play out just the
same way. Someone like Sen.
Mitt Romney of Utah may
break GOP ranks, but no one
thinks 20 Republicans, the
bare minimum who would
have to defect to convict
Trump, would actually do so.
So the Democrats will spend
the next few precious months
acting out a pretend cliffhang-
er to which everyone actually
knows the script and the end-
ing. No plot twists in sight.
Remember health care, the
issue that won so many elec-
tions for Democrats in 2018?
You might, but they don’t seem
to.
Come next year, Trump will
have an impeachment victory
and quite possibly a solid
economy. The Democrats will
have — what?

Enriqueta Basilio — They never permitted a

first woman to light
the Olympic flame
By Daniel E. Slotnik
Enriqueta Basilio, a
Mexican sprinter who at
the 1968 Summer Games
in Mexico City became
the first woman to light
the Olympic flame, died
on Oct. 26. She was 71.
Her death was con-
firmed by the Mexican
Olympic Committee,
which did not specify
where she died or the
cause.
The 1968 Olympic
Games were memorable
for a number of reasons,
starting with Basilio’s
appearance in the open-
ing ceremonies. A 20-
year-old member of the
Mexican track and field
team, she created a stir
in the international press
after she was selected to
light the Olympic caul-
dron and greeted the
honor with aplomb.
The New York Times
quoted her as saying,
through a translator, that
she thought she may
have been selected be-
cause Mexican men and
women had “the same
rights,” and that her
country hoped to dem-
onstrate this equality to
the world.
“The days we live in,
it’s difficult to depend on
a man,” Basilio said.
“They must be iguales —
the same.”
On Oct. 12, 1968, Basi-
lio ran into the Olympic
stadium in Mexico City
holding the Olympic
torch, which had been
carried over land and sea
from Greece by a suc-
cession of more than

The Mexico City

more unforgettable mo-

when the American

racism during the play-
ing of “The Star-Span-

the American Bob Bea-
mon shattered the long-
jump world record by
leaping 29 feet, 2½ inch-
es — nearly 2 feet farther
than the previous re-
cord.
Basilio competed in
the 400-meter, the 80-
meter hurdles and the
400-meter relay. But she
was eliminated in each
event and never again
competed at the Olym-
pics.
Several women have
since lit the Olympic
flame at Winter and
Summer Games. But
Basilio and the Austra-

Olympics in Sydney in
2000, are the only two to
ignite the flame at the
Summer Games by
themselves.

Cancer gives lawmaker new purpose
DeSaulnier from page B1
Cancer Survivors Caucus
in 2017, consisting of
lawmakers who have
battled the disease them-
selves or been close to
someone who has. Be-
sides being a support
group, the caucus works
on policies to improve
cancer treatment, in-
formed by the insight that
comes only through a
fight no one would volun-
teer for.
DeSaulnier has pro-
posed legislation after
seeing for himself the
difficulties of navigating
the health care system,
including a measure
intended to help doctors
guide patients through a
traumatic time.
He has become a fight-
er for government fund-
ing for health research.
The timing of his diagno-
sis was lucky: He was
treated a few years after
the drug that now keeps
him alive was approved
by the Food and Drug
Administration. A decade
earlier, his diagnosis
would have been a death
sentence. Now, DeSaul-
nier advocates for govern-
ment funding for poten-
tially lifesaving break-
throughs.
“If the general public
knew the value that they
get out of (the National
Institutes of Health), the
brilliance that’s there,
how it’s unlike any other
place in the world,”
they’d see the value of
taxpayer funding, De-
Saulnier said. “It’s one of
the great things America
does that we don’t know
about.”
It’s that passion for
research that added a
layer to his work on be-
half of Concord resident
Isabel Bueso, whose story
became a symbol for
people fighting the
Trump administration’s
attempt to end a program
that protects immigrants
with serious medical
problems from being
deported. After DeSaul-
nier’s committee held a
hearing at which Bueso
testified, the administra-
tion reinstated the pro-
gram. Bueso was origi-
nally invited to come to
the Bay Area from her
native Guatemala to take
part in a clinical trial with
UCSF Benioff Children’s
Hospital Oakland to
study her rare condition.
“It’s outrageous. I can’t
believe this is happening
in the United States of
America,” DeSaulnier
said before the adminis-
tration reversed course.
“The cruelty part is they
don’t seem to care at all of
what they’ve done to not
just innocent people but,
in Isabel’s case, someone
who’s been invited to this
country to be part of a
federal trial.”
DeSaulnier’s medical
journey started in July
2015.
He went to the doctor
after returning to the
office from a run, where
the horrified reactions of
his staff informed him he
had burst a blood vessel
in his eye. At first he was
referred to a specialist to
investigate a growth that
looked like it could be
skin cancer.
But that doctor’s re-
action indicated some-
thing else was happening.
“I’m sitting there going,
‘What’s going on? Why
are they being so serious

and dramatic?’ ” DeSaul-
nier said. “And the other
physician came in ... and
looked at me and he said,
‘You’ve got some form of
full-scale lymphoma. We
need to get you down for a
CAT scan.’ ”
DeSaulnier began
nearly six months of
chemotherapy. In May
2016, after his doctors
assured him his cancer
was responding well, he
made his condition
public. A year and a half
later, he began taking his
lifesaving pills.
But his initial meeting
with his doctors was not
the only time he was
confused and frightened
because of miscommuni-
cation. After his course of
chemo, a general practi-
tioner left him with the
impression that his can-
cer was not responding to
treatment. It was a beau-
tiful, clear day, and he
walked outside his office
on Capitol Hill to consid-
er the moment.
“I remember sitting out
there looking at the Li-
brary of Congress, Su-
preme Court and the
Capitol, and just think-
ing, ‘Strange, to end up
sitting here and be told
you don’t have much
longer to live,’ ” he said.
The next day, DeSaul-
nier went to see his spe-
cialist. The oncologist
stared at his computer,
breaking the silence with
occasional “hmms.”
Soon, the doctor told him
he was responding well
and was going to live
awhile yet.
“So I’m not gonna die
of cancer, but you’re go-
ing to give me a freaking

heart attack,” DeSaulnier
replied.
It’s that type of experi-
ence that has inspired
DeSaulnier’s legislative
work. His Cancer Care
Planning and Communi-
cations Act would let
doctors bill Medicare for
time spent preparing care
plans for their cancer
patients, the goal being to
better guide people
through an emotionally
fraught moment. DeSaul-
nier teamed up with the
Republican co-chair of
the Cancer Survivors
Caucus, Rep. Buddy
Carter, R-Ga., to reintro-
duce the bill in July.
DeSaulnier also pro-
posed the Patient Naviga-
tion Assistance Act,
which would have Medic-
aid pay for patient naviga-
tors — professionals who
can work with patients to
understand their diagno-
ses and care. He reintro-
duced the bill last week.
Miscommunication
with medical profession-
als is an experience
shared across the survi-
vors caucus. Rep. Andy
Levin, D-Mich., is a two-
time survivor of non-
Hodgkin’s lymphoma. In
2000, he went into sur-
gery for what doctors
thought might be a her-
nia. After being released,
he called the surgeon’s
line to check on some
blood pooling in the area.
“He said, ‘You didn’t
have a hernia,’ ” Levin
said. “He said, ‘No, you
had a lymph node and it
looked bad.’ ... This is
how I found out I prob-
ably had cancer.”
DeSaulnier works on
behalf of people in similar

situations who don’t have
the resources that a mem-
ber of Congress has,
Levin said.
“I’m a huge Mark De-
Saulnier fan,” Levin said.
“He’s somebody who’s
not the loudest member
of Congress — he doesn’t
seek a lot of attention —
but he builds effective
relationships. ... He
doesn’t have his finger up
in the wind a lot. He has
his values, he lives his
values, he votes his val-
ues.”
DeSaulnier may not
have the highest media
profile or the most leg-
islation to his name, but
colleagues describe him
as influential behind the
scenes. Rep. Karen Bass,
D-Los Angeles, said he
shows “quiet leadership”
on a range of issues.
He’s also made an im-
pression on first-term
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-
Cortez, D-N.Y. Early on,
she said, he was one of
the lawmakers who went
out of their way to make
her feel welcome.
“He gives a damn in a
really humane and com-
passionate way,” Ocasio-
Cortez said.
Rep. Eric Swalwell,
D-Dublin, was a teenager
when he met DeSaulnier
while volunteering on
one of his Contra Costa
County campaigns. At
the time, DeSaulnier was
still involved in his first
career, as the owner of a
now-closed bar and grill
in Concord.
“He’s still just kind of

business,” Swalwell said.
“That’s the same Mark
that I see here on the
Hill.”
DeSaulnier said he
learned some lessons
running a restaurant that
apply to politics, includ-
ing the importance of
building relationships
early.
“One of the most im-
portant periods in the
restaurant business is the
first 30 days to six
months,” DeSaulnier
said. “If you develop a
good reputation in the
restaurant business and
politics, it feeds on itself.
Having said that, if you
don’t keep up the rep-
utation, then there’s
probably two professions
where people are merci-
less.”
His passion for helping
others through struggles
— and willingness to be
forthright about his own
— also date to much earli-
er. DeSaulnier was in
college when his father,
Edward DeSaulnier, was
removed from his Mas-
sachusetts judgeship on
corruption allegations.
He committed suicide in
1989. DeSaulnier was
open about his father’s
mental health problems
and found that people
opened up about their
own stories. It led him to
be candid with the public
about his cancer.
“I said, ‘You know, we
should probably tell the
press because I just want
to be honest with peo-
ple,’ ” DeSaulnier said.
With his father’s story,
“my consultant was hor-
rified because she said,

is something bad hap-
pened and you have an
unusual name.’ And I
found just the opposite.”
The need to be person-
ally invested in his work
was reinforced by a men-
tor — and customer. His
predecessor in his Contra
Costa congressional dis-
trict, George Miller, used
to frequent his restau-
rant. When DeSaulnier
got into politics, Miller
told him that much of his
work would be dictated
by his constituents’ needs
— but not all of it.
Miller told him: “You
need to find things that
personally bring passion
to your work,” DeSaul-
nier said. “It was wonder-
ful advice. ... The things
that I’m actually really
passionate about are
people who are at risk,
and how do you help
them?”
DeSaulnier said it fed
his desire to be an ad-
vocate for those not in
positions of privilege.
Now, the one change he’d
like to make in Congress
is reorienting the way it
makes decisions to be
more evidence-based, he
said.
As he was sitting on
that bench when he
thought his time was
running short, DeSaul-
nier said he thought
about what he wanted to
do with the months he
had left. Getting politics
to be more rational, he
said, was at the top.
“Our priorities are
wrong, and our decision-
making process is a
mess,” DeSaulnier said.
“It’s based on political
opinions, political con-
sultants, and advertisers
who make a lot of money
off of getting people to
fight. ... I would like to
start to change the priori-
ties ... toward education
and research.”
As for how he gets that
done, he’s thankful his
medical care has bought
him more time.
“I think it’s a long
slog,” he said.

for looters in fire zone
By Alejandro Serrano, Steve
Rubenstein and Josh Koehn
While firefighters worked this week
to tame the raging Kincade Fire in
Sonoma County, which forced 185,000
people to evacuate their homes, no
fewer than 13 people were arrested for
entering a closed disaster area, while
looters successfully raided two aban-
doned homes and a school.
An unknown number of looters
stole two guns from a home on the
6900 block of Highway 1 in Bodega
Bay, and at least one other person stole
three guns, fishing equipment and a
generator from another home, said Sgt.
Juan Valencia, a spokesman for the
Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office. Au-
thorities had no description for pos-
sible suspects.
At least one burglar stole a machine
to paint parking lines from Wright
Elementary School on Price Avenue in
Santa Rosa, Valencia said. No suspect
was identified in that incident either.
Valencia said it’s important for resi-
dents and authorities to be “vigilant”
during such a chaotic time.
In Fairfield, a woman who evacuat-
ed her home and stopped to eat at a
restaurant had her bag stolen while
she wasn’t looking. Police arrested
Shawn Spontini, 59, of Fairfield, and
booked him into Solano County Jail
on suspicion of felony theft and four
outstanding warrants for various
offenses in connection to the snatch-
ing.
With fire crews gaining ground in
containing the Kincade Fire and pow-
er restored across Bay Area counties,
residents and law enforcement seem
to finally be regaining a sense of nor-
malcy.
“People are kind of starting to get
back to the groove of things,” Valencia
said
Antioch pharmacist worked 2

A 66-year-old woman who worked

cy, had practiced under her own name
until she was placed on probation by
state regulators in 2007 for stealing
opioids from a Bakersfield pharmacy.
Her license was revoked in 2016
following another theft.
“She changed her name to Lisa
Brown so she could use another per-
son’s license number to continue prac-
ticing,” Morris said. “The defendant
placed countless patients’ health at
risk by furnishing drugs and medica-

Man survives burger attack in

They’d apparently never met, but
the burger and fries in her bag were

bag containing a “hamburger sand-
wich” and fries, police said.
The culprit, a 31-year-old woman,
allegedly followed up on the attack by
snatching the man’s phone off the table
and hightailing it out of the restaurant.
Police said the woman didn’t get far, as
the man was able to catch up to her
and regain possession of his phone.
It’s not clear what led to the fracas,
police said, as both parties didn’t
know one another.
Officers arrived at the intersection of
Broadway and Grant Avenue and ar-
rested Bilen Taddesse, a city resident.
She was booked into San Francisco Jail

Airbnb bans ‘party houses’ after Orinda shooting

Airbnb from page B1
known for its soccer fields, hilly
streets and the California Shake-
speare Theater.
The whole city seemed to
unravel Thursday night, when
gunfire popped shortly before
10:50 p.m. at a four-bedroom
house with beige trim and a
shingled roof. Owners Michael
Wang and Wenlin Lou had
rented the place to a Lafayette
woman who claimed she was
holding a family reunion for 12
people, Wang said.
Instead, the party drew doz-
ens of guests, mostly in their
teens and 20s, according to law
enforcement. Neighbors began
calling police to complain about
noise shortly after 9 p.m., and
deputies were driving to the
house when the shots rang out.
Three people died at the
scene. One was pronounced
dead later at a hospital and a
fifth succumbed to her wounds
late Friday evening. At least four
others were injured.
Airbnb has a history with
problem rentals. In 2011, the
company implemented a new
policy promising to reimburse
hosts up to $50,000 in cases of
damage or vandalism, following
several reported incidents of
renters causing destruction to
apartments and homes. That
policy was later raised to $1
million, though users have com-
plained on Airbnb’s host forum
that the company makes it diffi-
cult to file claims on the insur-
ance.
The company’s newly pro-
posed changes call for address-
ing potential problems before
they play out.
“Starting today, we are ban-
ning ‘party houses’ and we are
redoubling our efforts to combat
unauthorized parties and get rid
of abusive host and guest con-
duct, including conduct that
leads to the terrible events we
saw in Orinda,” Chesky wrote
on Twitter.
Airbnb spokesman Ben Breit
said the company defines party
houses as those that have a re-
cord of being a nuisance and
that details of what would qual-
ify a rental for removal would be
worked out by a company task
force.
“We must do better, and we
will. This is unacceptable,”
Chesky said in another tweet.
Tim Bajarin of Silicon Valley
research firm Creative Strategies
in San Jose said that changes like
those announced Saturday
should have been in place “from
day one,” and that Airbnb
should also threaten guests with
fines if they violate rules against
throwing parties.
“When people rent their
home, they’re not expecting it to
be used in huge parties that
could be very disruptive to the
house itself and its surround-
ings,” he said. “You probably
don’t anticipate you’d have
something like what happened
with the shootings. But any time
you have a party with drinking,
you’re potentially asking for at
least disruption, if not destruc-
tion.”
Airbnb, which was founded
in 2008, is valued at $35 billion
and plans to go public next year.
It has 7 million listings world-
wide, but as of Saturday, several
of those rentals were still billed
as a “party house.”

With Zion Williamson off to

becoming the face of college
basketball and has a chance to
take her production to a place

The do-everything Oregon

only 82 games to pass the mark
of 12 set by Kyle Collinsworth at

bumped the number to a seem-

JOHN SHEA Baseball
Hinch is no Bochy, and Giants are Team of Decade
Those three championships
in five years are aging well. In a
sport that rarely has repeat
champions anymore, or even
two title-winning teams over a
three-year stretch, the Giants’
accomplishment has stood the
test of time.
While baseball dramatically
has changed since the Giants’
historic stretch through 2014,
with analytics-driven teams and
managers trying to generate
ways to one-up the competition,
no team has come close to what
manager Bruce Bochy and the
Giants pulled off.
The Nationals clinched their
first World Series title on Wed-
nesday night and became the
13th team to win it all over the
first two decades of the century
— that’s parity not found in the
NBA (four teams combined to
win 15 titles over the same
stretch ) or NFL (the Patriots
won six Super Bowls in that
time).
The Nationals denied the
Astros the opportunity to win
two titles in three years and
boast of a supposed dynasty,
which at least two of Houston’s
players and lots of media sug-
gested would happen once
Houston did away with Wash-
ington.
Much of the thinking was
based on the fact that the Astros
won at least 100 games three
straight years, 311 in all, an
amazing feat. In the Giants’
three World Series runs, they
never came close to winning
100. They won 92, 94 and, ahem,
88. Just 274 in all.
None of that really matters.
The postseason is what counts.
Otherwise, we’d still be glori-
fying the greatness of the 2001
Mariners, who won 116 games
only to get bounced by the Yan-
kees in the ALCS.
With the Astros out of the
picture, the Giants, by winning

Historic world title

Kolisi grabbed the Webb Ellis
Cup with his big hands, gave it
a kiss and hoisted it high as
fireworks exploded and his

A blowout victory in the

Yet another transcendent

the World Series in 2010, 2012
and 2014, are the undisputed
Team of the Decade. The Red
Sox won two titles.
Meantime, given the chance
to pull a Madison Bumgarner
out of his cap, Hinch took a pass.
Hinch had Gerrit Cole avail-
able to duplicate Bumgarner’s
2014 exploits. Like Bumgarner,
Cole had two days of rest after
winning Game 5. Bumgarner
had thrown 117 pitches in nine
innings in Game 5, Cole 110 in
seven.
And as we know, in Game 7,
Bochy summoned Bumgarner
to start the fifth inning with a
one-run lead.
Hinch had a two-run lead
after five. And a two-run lead
after six. Cole, universally re-
garded as the best pitcher on the
planet (like Bumgarner five
years earlier), didn’t need to go
five innings. Just three. Even
fewer.
Hinch stuck with starter
Zack Greinke in the seventh.
Two batters into the inning,
Anthony Rendon homered.
The Astros still led by one.
Greinke walked his next batter,
then Hinch followed with a
string of five traditional reliev-
ers, three of whom were
charged with runs.
Hinch didn’t even use Cole
down a run in the eighth. Mak-
ing us wonder how strong Cole
felt on short rest, Hinch said
later the right-hander would
have pitched just one inning and
only if the Astros had a lead in
the eighth or ninth. Somewhere,
Bochy was shaking that big ol’
noggin and wondering why the
ace card wasn’t played.
Apparently, the analytics and
the script said don’t do it. Bochy
didn’t need anyone or anything
telling him that the Giants were
going to do or die with Bum-
garner, who responded by
throwing 68 pitches over five
League in 2019, the team said
Saturday night.
This will be the final year of a
three-year contract that Watson
signed before the 2018 season. It
was structured as a three-year,
$9 million deal for luxury-tax
reasons, but escalators and
from different backgrounds,
different races — came togeth-
er with one goal.”
He thanked the people on
the farms, in the taverns, in the
townships and in the streets.
“We love you, South Africa,”
an emotional Kolisi said, “and
we can achieve anything if we
work together as one.”
It was 24 years ago when the
Springboks won their first
World Cup title in front of
Nelson Mandela, a year after
he became president in a dem-
ocratic election after decades of
racial segregation and his own
imprisonment for 27 years. The
victory was depicted in the
Clint Eastwood movie “In-
victus.”
Twelve years later, they won
it again — also against England
— and it was another 12-year
gap to their third.

NO. 8 GEORGIA 24, NO. 6 FLORIDA 17
Fromm is the life of the party
By Mark Long
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. —
Jake Fromm was a little late to
the after-party.
He was in the third and final
wave of Georgia players leaping
into the stands at the “World’s
Largest Outdoor Cocktail Par-
ty.”
It was a fitting spot for
Fromm considering how effec-
tive he’s been on third down
against Florida.

quarter, and the No. 8 Bulldogs

nine years.
Fromm was the main reason
for the last two. He has five

ROUNDUP
Book’s late scoring run propels Oregon starts slowly,
Notre Dame past Virginia Tech then gets on big roll
STA F F A N D N EWS S E RV I C E S
Ian Book delivered the type
of clutch, game-winning drive
that can make Notre Dame fans
forgive the quarterback’s mis-
takes.
Book ran 7 yards for a touch-
down with 29 seconds left to
cap an 18-play, 87-yard drive as
the 16th-ranked Fighting Irish
pulled out a 21-20 victory over
visiting Virginia Tech and
averted a second straight loss.
After being blown out 45-14
at Michigan last week, Notre
Dame faced some harsh crit-
icism.
“This week was about our
team,” Book said after his de-
signed run on 3rd-and-goal
tied the game at 20-20. “It was
about having that strong love
for each other and just going
out there for one another and
playing for each other.”
Jonathan Doerer kicked the
go-ahead PAT after holder Jay
Bramblett fielded a low snap
and freshman Kyle Hamilton
then picked off a long pass by
Quincy Patterson to seal the
victory, the 16th straight by the
Irish in Notre Dame Stadium.
“That was a great character
victory for our football team,”
Irish coach Brian Kelly said.
“They endured a lot this week.
They found a way to win.”
Book led a methodical drive,
converting two fourth downs,
including a 4th-and-10 at the
Tech 33 for 26 yards to Chase
Claypool that gave the Irish
1st-and-goal from the 7. After
two incomplete passes, Notre
Dame caught Virginia Tech in a
blitz and Book ran away from it
and darted into the end zone.
“Just a lot of grit and perse-
verance,” Notre Dame tight end
Cole Kmet said.
Book passed for 341 yards,
with two touchdowns and two
interceptions, and led the Irish
with 50 yards on 13 carries.
The Irish committed three
turnovers deep in Hokies terri-
tory, including a fumble at the
goal line by Jafar Armstrong
that Hokies safety Divine Dea-
blo returned for a 98-yard TD
to tie the game at 14 with 9
seconds left in the first half.
The Hokies (5-3) added a
pair of field goals by Brian
Johnson in the second half and
the Irish missed one, leaving
Notre Dame trailing by six
with 3:19 remaining and the
ball at its 13. But Book and the
Irish came through.
#4 Clemson 59, Wofford 14: Trevor
Lawrence scored four touchdowns,
Travis Etienne ran for 212 yards and
two TDs and the host Tigers (9-0)
won their 24th consecutive game,
rolling over the FCS’ Terriers (5-3).
Etienne, the reigning ACC player of
the year, had scoring runs of 47 and
86 yards in the first 15:12. Clemson
improved to 34-0 against FCS pro-
grams. It was the Tigers’ sixth straight
win over Wofford (5-3), which fell to
1-21 against FBS schools. Etienne
became Clemson’s first rusher with
three 200-yard games in his career.
He also surpassed James Davis for
Clemson’s career record for rushing
TDs with 48.
#11 Auburn 20, Mississippi 14: Bo
Nix passed for a career-high 340
against Florida, with four of
them coming on third down.
“When Jake has time, he’s
really efficient,” Georgia coach
Kirby Smart said. “I was so
proud of him this game.”
Fromm’s most important
throw came on a 3rd-and-7 play
with a little more than two
minutes remaining. The Gators
(7-2, 4-2) rallied twice to make it
a one-score game in the final
quarter, and Fromm needed
one more completion to end
any chance of a comeback.
He found tight end Eli Wolf
for a 22-yard gain. Game over.
“We had the belief the whole
game that we just needed the
one stop, and we didn’t get that
unfortunately,” Florida line-
backer David Reese said.
Fromm completed 20 of 30
passes, including one to Domi-
nick Blaylock for a 3-yard score
on third down in the first quar-
ter.
Fromm struggled in his

yards and had a 1-yard touchdown as
the host Tigers (7-2, 4-2 SEC) mostly
dominated on the stat sheet but
struggled to put the 19-point un-
derdogs away after repeated stalled
drives and three missed field goals.
Anders Carlson’s third miss, a 47-
yarder with 1:14 to play, gave Ole Miss
(3-6, 2-4) a shot at a winning drive.
The Rebels, who had no timeouts left,
quickly moved from their 31 into
Auburn territory. John Rhys Plumlee
hit Braylon Sanders for an 18-yard
pass and then ran 20 yards. Finally, on
4th-and-3 from the 35, Plumlee
scrambled around and made a des-
peration heave under pressure. Chris-
tian Tutt intercepted the ball and
raced most of the way to the other
end zone. And Auburn, which was
coming off a 23-20 loss at No. 1 LSU,
managed to survive. Nix completed
30 of 44 passes, including a 78-
yarder to Harold Joiner that set up
Auburn’s first touchdown. Fellow
freshman D.J. Williams got most of
his 24 carries and 93 yards in the
second half. Anthony Schwartz
gained 89 yards on nine catches,
including a 50-yarder.
#14 Michigan 38, Maryland 7: Giles
Jackson returned the opening kickoff
97 yards for a touchdown and the
visiting Wolverines (7-2, 4-2 Big Ten)
used two first-half scoring runs by
freshman Zach Charbonnet to pull
away from the Terrapins (3-6, 1-5).
Jackson’s game-opening dash down
the right sideline set the tone. Char-
bonnet ended Michigan’s first drive
with a 2-yard run, and the defense
made those two scores stand up. The
Wolverines’ special teams contribut-
ed, too. In addition to the kickoff
return, Michigan used a successful
fake punt to set up Charbonnet’s
second TD, and a partially blocked
punt led to a third-quarter touchdown
run by Hassan Haskins for a 35-0
lead. Javon Leake’s 97-yard kickoff
return in the third quarter was one of
few highlights for the Terrapins.
#17 Cincinnati 46, E. Carolina 43:
Sam Crosa kicked a 32-yard field goal
as time expired to lift the visiting East
Division-leading Bearcats (7-1, 4-0
American Athletic Conference).
Desmond Ridder threw for 161 yards
and a touchdown, rushed for 146
more and led the winning drive in the
final 1:10 for the 24½-point favorites,

HORNETS 93, WARRIORS 87

Plucky, starless lineup falls just short

‘A really positive

coach Steve Kerr would prob-
ably have loved to have drawn
up a play for Stephen Curry.
Or Klay Thompson.
Or D’Angelo Russell.
Or Draymond Green.
None of them were available,
and a bunch of rookies and
no-names wearing Warriors
jerseys lost to Charlotte 93-87 on
a Saturday night that often felt
like a glorified G League game at
Chase Center until some fourth-
quarter drama.
“It was a really positive step,
but you’ve got to get some wins,
too,” Kerr said. “I wish I could
have done a better job down the
stretch to help them out, but

even after a loss to one of the
league’s weaker teams. Kerr
said before the game that pa-

his staff. He has mentioned
how Green needs to shift from

and Kerr knows he needs to do
that, too.

Actually, fans will be eagerly
anticipating Kerr’s first clip-

indication that things are re-
turning to normal, that the
starters are getting back into

together, and Kerr doesn’t have
to worry so much about mak-

effort.

it’s hard to envision those old
normal times ever coming

BRUCE JENKINS NBA
Turns out, tampering is very essence of the league
As much as he’d like it to go
away, Commissioner Adam
Silver deals with the China
crisis almost daily. He has as-
sessed the league’s financial
losses as “substantial,” with no
end in sight. Sign-carrying
protesters have appeared out-
side and inside NBA arenas in
support of the Hong Kong dem-
onstrations. Chinese television
has significantly pulled back its
NBA coverage. He’s got Mike
Pence on his case, the vice
president claiming in a speech
that the NBA is acting like “a
wholly owned subsidiary of the
authoritarian regime” in refus-
ing to speak out more boldly.
Positive developments have
yet to emerge from this peculiar
brand of cold war, with one
exception: Silver is paying
attention to matters that count.
The China affair has taken his
focus off tampering — and we
can only hope the condition is
permanent.
For misplaced anger and a
stunning lack of awareness, it’s
hard to top Silver’s hard-line
stance on tampering. To be
accurate, he’s speaking for the
owners, who insist on an 82-
game season, a watered-down
product and rules preventing
players from moving freely
around the league. But for heav-
en’s sake, man, don’t make a
fool of yourself.
Clippers head coach Doc
Rivers raved about Kawhi
Leonard in an ESPN interview

Jon Horst told fans at a town
meeting that the team would
eventually extend a contract
extension to Giannis Anteto-
kounmpo — his own player.

Bruce Brown added 22 points
and seven assists as Detroit

on Saturday.
Luke Kennard scored 24

a driving basket and two free
throws in the final 30 seconds.
Drummond had at least 20

the third straight game and
fourth time in seven games

“He’s a big guy, and he’s

Kyrie Irving had his first

Someone needs to remind
Silver that tampering — which
is to say, contact among players
about changing teams, as well
as player-agent conversation —
is the essence of the league. I’ve
even heard insiders say the
NBA couldn’t function without
it. With free agents eager to

Philadelphia is the last undefeated
team in the league, with its first 5-0

saying they can’t recall being so
excited about an upcoming
season.
Get this: Silver actually
threatened to confiscate play-
ers’ phones, to see if they’ve
been, you know, talking. He’s
making big noise about teams
being subject to random audits.
So who gets checked, the gener-
al manager? The coach? What’s
next, you hire private investiga-
tors to snoop around the clubs?
What if relevant information
comes from an executive who
decides to change teams? If you
seize a player’s phone records,
you just might come across
something quite unpleasant;
then what?
It’s possible that Silver is

extended periods, and D’Ange-

Saturday’s game.
Including playoff runs,
Green has averaged 93.7 games
per season during his first
seven years in the league. He
said he had trouble gripping
the ball or dribbling with his
left hand after injuring the
finger in the second quarter of
Friday’s loss.
“With Steph not here (Fri-
day) night, it was really obvious
that Draymond was the un-
questioned leader of the group
at shoot-around, during the
game, at halftime,” Kerr said.
Baynes hit four 3-pointers and
scored 20 points for visiting Phoenix.
The two combined to shoot 14-

finished at 50%, going 14-for-34
from 3-point range. Kelly Oubre Jr.
added 15 points and Frank Kaminsky
had 14. Rookie Ja Morant led Mem-

Gilgeous-Alexander had 23 points
and eight rebounds in Oklahoma
City’s home victory. With starting
center Steven Adams sidelined by a
knee injury and backup Nerlens Noel
getting into foul trouble, Oklahoma
City went with a lineup that some-
times featured 6-foot-10 forward
Danilo Gallinari and no one else over
6-6 on the floor. It was effective
enough to hold New Orleans at bay
and propel the Thunder to their
second win of the season.
Nuggets 91, Magic 87: Jamal Mur-
ray scored 22 points, Nikola Jokic
had 20 points and seven rebounds
and both made big plays late to lift
visiting Denver. Jokic hit a shot from
the corner with 1:53 left to put Den-
ver up 84-81. Murray made a jumper
with 1:24 left, drove for a dunk and
an 88-83 lead with 35 seconds
remaining, and wrapped up the
victory with two free throws with 5.1
seconds left. The Nuggets shot only
37%, but pulled ahead in the third
quarter when Orlando made only
seven of 25 shots.

players, “We gotta do this

All such enforcement is
perfectly fine. But don’t mess
with the players’ privacy, or
their well-earned sense of em-

around for months and finally

Michele Roberts, executive
director of the National Basket-

the Undefeated that owners
“continue to view players as
property. No one has said a
word about what happens
when the team precipitously
trades a man, especially a fami-

that has on him. ... There’s a
perception that owners have
rights and players don’t. I don’t
see it as a problem any more
than I would see a lawyer de-
ciding to work in another firm
as a problem. I thought that
was something you were sup-
posed to be able to do in this
country.”

There’s a reality to this situa-

who is so competitive and who
is used to winning. He’s known
nothing but winning, so for
him to set the emotion aside
and understand that he’s got to
help the younger guys, he’s
been great.

1 If Curry had broken his
shooting hand, he’d be spend-
ing a lot of time working on his
off-hand, already capable of
magical things. His right hand
is a study in perfection — but
somehow you get the feeling
he’ll come back with some new
twist in his repertoire.

up his 3-point shot, Warriors
forward Draymond Green

many in the glory years, for it
took shots away from the leg-
ends. Now, once his injured
finger heals, he’s got a bunch of
young teammates who need to
prove themselves from deep.
1 The Warriors can’t be sure if
any of their young guards will
pan out. That’s hardly the case
with Memphis rookie Ja Mo-
rant, already taking over
games with his shooting and
defense. In a recent overtime
win against Brooklyn, Morant
scored 17 points in the fourth
quarter, blocked Irving’s pe-
rimeter shot (who does that?) to
send it into overtime, then clev-

winner.

great passion about the support
he’s received from Barnett. In

Jests aside, Dwelley’s catches no joke

Tight end takes
ribbing for grabs
going nowhere —
but he seals win
By Eric Branch
The undefeated 49ers had
compiled some historic statis-
tics entering Thursday’s game
at Arizona, but head coach Kyle
Shanahan found one set of
numbers hilarious.
The source of amusement
was tight end Ross Dwelley’s
stat line: three catches, nega-
tive-1 yard.
“We were messing with
Dwelley all week,” Shanahan
said. “We said the No. 1 goal in
this game was to win, but the
No. 2 goal was to improve his
yards-per-catch average.”
Done and done.
Shanahan was discussing
the undrafted backup after a
28-25 win over the Cardinals
because Dwelley had the game-
sealing catch that lifted the
49ers to 8-0 and lifted his
yards-per-catch average this
season to a relatively whopping
4.0.
Asked if he thought the pre-
game razzing amusing, Dwel-
ley, 24, didn’t exactly double
over in laughter.
“I mean, yeah, but it is what

Arizona, an 11-yarder that was the longest of his career.
is at that point,” said Dwelley,
who had four catches for 29
yards. “I’ll catch the ball when-
ever and just find a way to win.”
Dwelley was similarly no-
nonsense with the game on the
line.
On the first play after the
two-minute warning, with the
49ers clinging to a three-point
lead, they faced a 3rd-and-9
from Arizona’s 48. Jimmy Ga-
roppolo, under pressure,
stepped up in the pocket and
dumped a pass to Dwelley, who
bowled over a defender near the
end of an 11-yard gain that was
Christian Petersen / Getty Images
followed by two victory-forma-
tion kneel downs.
“I knew when I caught it, I
needed 3 or 4 extra yards,”
Dwelley said. “So I ducked my
head to get it.”
Dwelley’s end-of-the-play
physicality was reminiscent of
the player he was filling in for,
Pro Bowl tight end George
Kittle. In fact, it inspired right
guard Mike Person to give
Dwelley a nickname: Baby
George.
“That’s a heck of a compli-
ment,” Dwelley said. “I’m fine
with that.”
Dwelley’s play was a fitting
way to cap the first half of the
49ers’ season in which a story
line has been the way he and
three other unheralded back-
ups have capably filled in for
injured starters.
For the past four games,
Dwelley has assumed many of
the duties of fullback Kyle
Juszczyk (knee), undrafted
Daniel Brunskill has replaced
right tackle Mike McGlinchey
(knee), rookie sixth-round pick
Justin Skule has subbed for left
tackle Joe Staley (leg) and un-
drafted Emmanuel Moseley has
stood in for cornerback Ahkello
Witherspoon (foot).
Skule has started the past six
games and Moseley has started
the past five.
The fill-ins are expected to go
back to the bench when the
49ers host the Seahawks on
Nov. 11, as the four injured start-
ers are expected to return.
How much better can the
49ers be when the quartet
comes back?
“We’ve been playing really
well with guys down, and the
guys have been stepping up
really well,” defensive tackle
DeForest Buckner said. “To
have some of those guys back is
going to be very exciting. We’ve
been missing them for a couple
weeks, and the fact we’re 8-0
without them just shows the
depth on this team and how we
really trust one another to get
the job done.”
Said Kittle: “You can’t really
say enough about the guys that
stepped up for those guys. …
The plays that they’ve made
have been amazing to watch.
I’m just so happy for all of them.
They took advantage of their
opportunity.”
Dwelley, who played at the
University of San Diego, en-
tered Thursday with five career
catches, none longer than 8
yards. However, he did previ-
ously contribute the most im-
portant 2-yard reception of the
season: He made a diving grab
on 4th-and-1 early in the fourth
quarter when the 49ers had a
three-point lead in their 9-0
win at Washington on Oct. 20.
His career-high, 11-yard catch
in a key moment could end the
cracks about his yards-per-
reception average. However, his
postgame quote about subbing
for Kittle, arguably the NFL’s
best tight end, could inspire
more razzing.
The play was “designed for
George to be in there, but really
we’re pretty interchangeable,”
Dwelley said. “Obviously, he’s a
hell of a player, but I was trying
to do my part.”

such throws in the past two

The six deep throws at Hous-

But they countered a widely
held perception of Carr, espe-
cially in a season-plus under
head coach Jon Gruden, relying
mostly on short, quick throws
and appearing hesitant at times
to throw downfield.
Carr appeared to reference
that perception when asked

said. “Again, I sit here and try to

CANUCKS 5, SHARKS 2
More lackluster play
brings 5th loss in row
By Ross McKeon
If the Sharks are planning to
use their six-game homestand
to turn things around, they’re
sure taking their sweet time.
Saturday night’s 5-2 loss to
Vancouver at SAP Center ex-
tended San Jose’s latest streak
of futility to five losses. Unlike
Friday when the hosts outshot
Winnipeg 53-19 only to lose 3-2,
the Sharks had little push-back
against the Canucks.
Marc-Edouard Vlasic had a
short-handed goal and Ev-
ander Kane also scored in the
third period, but the strikes
came too late to really help San
Jose.
Sharks coach Peter DeBoer

of playing 11 of 14 at home. He
called them soft in the defen-
sive zone, in front of their net

And while the Sharks maybe
deserved a better fate Friday,
the coach’s strong words defi-
nitely did not resonate for the
second game of back-to-backs

“Everybody’s got to look in
the mirror,” DeBoer said.
“There’s no cavalry coming.

At 4-10-1, the last-place

“It is what it is, we own it,”
DeBoer said. “There is no hid-

to prevent themselves
from having to pull off
another such stunner.
St. Mary’s entered the
WCC tournament cham-
pionship game with a
21-11 record, almost as-
suredly needing to knock
off No. 1 Gonzaga to earn a
bid to the NCAA Tourna-
ment.
The Gaels did just that,
prevailing 60-47. They
ended Gonzaga’s winning
streak at 21 games and
beat a top-ranked team
for the first time in school
history.
“Winning that game, it
did kind of make your
season,” St. Mary’s head
coach Randy Bennett
said. “You really did
something. That was
hard to do. … I think that
confidence has had a
great shelf life. You could
feel it all summer and all
fall. You’ve got to move
past it now, but I think it’s
there. Our guys know
they’re capable of playing
at a pretty high level.”
Said guard Jordan
Ford: “It’s something that

USF
Despite coaching change,
Dons retain high hopes
By Steve Kroner
Folks in and around
the USF program hope
that adage “the more
things change, the more
they stay the same”
applies to the Dons.
Under head coach
Kyle Smith, USF record-
ed at least 20 wins in
each of the past three
seasons. Last season, the
Dons swept BYU, beat
St. Mary’s and were 21-6
before dropping their
final four games.
Smith left the Hilltop
in late March to become
Washington State’s head
coach. The Dons quickly
moved to replace him,
naming Todd Golden to
succeed Smith.
Golden, a guard at St.
Mary’s in the
mid-2000s, had been on
Smith’s staff for those
three seasons. For Gold-
en, 34, it’s his first head-
coaching job.
He feels confident
about the transition
from being an assistant
to being the leader of
the program.
“It’s been pretty
smooth,” Golden said in
SANTA CLARA
Broncos return top scorers and team chemistry
By Steve Kroner
Herb Sendek begins his
fourth season as Santa
Clara’s head coach with
an enviable roster.
The Broncos return the
top five scorers from last
season’s team, which
went 16-15 overall, 8-8 in
the WCC. They have size
— frontcourt starters
Willie Caruso and Josip
Vrankic are listed at 6-
foot-11 and 6-9, respec-
tively. And they’re still
relatively young, with no
seniors on the roster.
Sendek said the
Broncos “have good ver-
satility. … I see the guys
fitting together very well.”
Santa Clara’s starting
about, even a long time
from now. …
“It’s definitely been
talked about a lot, but it’s
something that we’re
trying to put in the past
now, and try to focus on
this upcoming season.”
The Gaels are ranked
20th in the country. In the
preseason poll of WCC
coaches, St. Mary’s was
picked to finish a close
second behind Gonzaga,
which is ranked eighth
nationally.
One of the Gaels’ goals
is to win enough so they
don’t have to win the
WCC tourney to reach the
NCAA Tournament.
Ford, a senior who
plays both point and off
guard, will be their main
man. Last season, he
finished second in the
conference in scoring at
21.1 points per game and
in 3-point field-goal per-
centage at 41.2. He’s also
particularly adept at
knifing through the lane
and converting creatively.
Can he be even better
this season?
“It’s not an automatic,”
Bennett said. “It’s going to
be hard for him to have a
better year than he did
last year, but he’ll be bet-
ter because he’s stronger
and he’ll be better because
he’s a year more experi-
enced at being the leader
of the team.”
Ford said he has fo-
cused on “learning how to
lead this group of guys,

his Memorial Gym of-
fice. “Kyle, obviously,
deserves a lot of credit
for that. He left me with
a very good situation.”
That good situation
includes three returning
starters — junior guard
Charles Minlend, senior
swingman Jordan Ratin-
ho and senior center
Jimbo Lull — and six
other returning schol-
arship players.
One of those six, ju-
nior Jamaree Bouyea,
finds himself in a situa-
tion similar to Golden’s.
Bouyea has the task of
replacing Frankie Ferra-
ri as the starting point
guard. Ferrari, who ran
the Dons’ offense for 11⁄2
seasons, is playing pro-
fessionally in Spain.
Golden believes
Bouyea will thrive.
“Jamaree is definitely
the type of guy (who)
will really perform well
guards certainly appear
to fit together. Junior Tahj
Eaddy, a preseason All-
WCC selection, led the
Broncos in scoring in
2018-19 at 15 points per
game. He had redshirted
the previous season after
transferring from South-
east Missouri State.
Trey Wertz also made
his debut with the
Broncos last season. He
averaged 12.2 points per
game, third on the team,
and he led Santa Clara in
assists with 4.7 per game.
Wertz made the confer-
ence’s All-Freshman
team.

them to do a great deal of
heavy lifting,” Sendek

PAC-12 MEN’S BASKETBALLPREVIEW
CAL
Fox and Bears hunting respectability
New coach
tasked with
climb from
Pac-12 depths
By Rusty Simmons
It’s hard to imagine
things getting any worse
for the Cal men’s basket-
ball team, but new head
coach Mark Fox knows,
after two historically
awful seasons, that there
is still a long way to go
in returning the program
to respectability.
“I don’t know if I’ve
seen a change in them
offensively, because
when I first got here,
they had no idea how we
wanted to play,” said
Fox, who was hired in
March to replace Wyk-
ing Jones. “I don’t think
I’ve seen a change defen-
sively yet, because they
had no idea how we
wanted to play.
“Where I’ve seen a
change is, they now have
an understanding of how
hard you have to work
and the investment you
have to make to have any
chance to succeed. That
was uncomfortable for
them when I came. Now,
it’s their new normal.
Because now that it’s
something they’re used
to, I think that will give
our offense and defense
a chance to change.”
There is plenty of
room for change on both
ends of the floor.
After ranking 296th
nationally in offensive
efficiency at 98.2 points
per 100 possessions in
2017-18, Cal ranked 286th
STANFORD
Cardinal
see Davis
as the key
to success
Guard boosts
his ‘mental
toughness’ to
step up game
By Rusty Simmons
The Stanford men’s
basketball team is trying
to escape a funk.
Daejon Davis might be
just the player to help.
Well, maybe the new-
est version of Davis.
“I didn’t really see a lot
of other areas that were
more important (to de-
velop) than my mental
toughness,” Davis said at
Pac-12 media day. “I
think mental toughness
is everything for myself,
just becoming the leader
that I’ve always been
thought of and actually
becoming that leader for
our team.”
The Cardinal have had
four straight sub-20-win
seasons for the first time
since that was the norm
for the program from
1942-1986. They have
made just one NCAA
Tournament appearance
(2014) in the past 11 years.
Stanford is projected
to finish 10th in the
Pac-12 this season, but all
of those trends could
drastically change if
Davis does what those
close to him think is
possible.
“When he’s at his best

PAC-12 WOMEN’S BASKETBALL PREVIEW
Cardinal rise to the challenge against Team USA
Killion from page C1
her Stanford career and
played in four Final
Fours.
Judging by Saturday’s
performance, this Stan-
ford team could make
another Final Four run.
The team is ridiculously
deep. With the Warriors
in tatters, the Stanford
women will likely be
the Bay Area’s most
successful basketball
team this winter.
“I like that we were
challenged,” said Cheryl
Reeve, who is the acting
coach of the U.S. team
while head coach Dawn
Staley is coaching her
college team, South
Carolina.
Saturday’s game was
a bit of a full-circle
moment. Almost a quar-
ter-century ago, Van-
Derveer took a leave
from Stanford and com-
mitted to coaching the
U.S. women’s team for
an entire year. The in-
tensive training program
came on the heels of a
disappointing bronze
medal finish at the 1992
Olympics in Barcelona.
VanDerveer and her
supremely talented
team, which included
Staley, compiled a 52-0
record in exhibition
games leading up to the
Atlanta Olympics and
won gold there. The
team’s supremacy led to
the rebirth of profes-
sional women’s basket-
ball in the United
States.
As VanDerveer point-
ed out, that was a long
time ago.
“That was before
these people were
born,” she said, gestur-
ing to her players DiJo-
nai Carrington and Kia-
na Williams.
VanDerveer’s stint as
the coach of the U.S.
team launched an era of
dominance. At the Rio
Olympics, the Amer-
icans won their sixth
straight gold medal.
They have also won five
of the past six FIBA
world championships.
The excellence has
come with an unexpect-
ed price. Though the

Nneka Ogwumike, a Stanford

women’s team sports in
the 1990s was the real-
ization that to sustain
excellence, athletes
needed, like men, a
place to play year-
round. The WNBA has
provided that, along
with leagues in faraway
places such as Russia,
China, Turkey and Isra-
el.
But that achievement,
too, has come with a
cost. Because players
have the chance to
make up to 10 times
their WNBA salaries
overseas, they scatter to
all corners of the globe.
That restricts the oppor-
tunity to train together
as a national team.

who called chemistry
the team’s toughest
challenge. “It’s very
sporadic.”
Bird, 39, and Diana
Tarausi, 37, who have
eight gold medals be-
tween them, approached
USA Basketball about
doing a year-long train-
ing camp, a throwback
to the kind VanDerveer
ran in 1995-96. The
players will be paid for
their time in camp, with
the chance to earn re-
portedly as much as
$100,000, thus providing
the incentive to remain
at home.
The training camp
and games against top
NCAA teams, both this
month and again later
in the winter, will give
fans a chance to see the
best women in the
world playing together.
It’s the kind of exposure
the team doesn’t usually
get.
“We hope to not only
develop the team but
grow the sport, and
garner a following going
into Tokyo,” Ogwumike
said.
Like the women’s
soccer team, which is
suing for change, this is
another example of
athletes taking more
ownership of their
sport. And leaving a
legacy for the next gen-
eration.
“I like to joke and
say, ‘I hope I’m one of

WOMEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL PREVIEW

CAL

Smith returns with big shoes to fill

By Rusty Simmons
This will be a season
of transition for the Cal
women’s basketball pro-
gram.
Charmin Smith —
who left the Bears to
take a job with the
WNBA’s New York Lib-
erty in April and came
back as their 10th head
coach in June — takes
over a team so decimat-
ed by graduations and
transfers that the Pac-12
coaches projected Cal to
finish 11th, ahead of
only Colorado.
After leading Cal to
seven NCAA Tourna-
ment appearances, in-
cluding the school’s
first-ever Final Four in
2013, Lindsay Gottlieb
left for an assistant job
with the NBA’s Cleve-
land Cavaliers. Kristine
Anigwe, the program’s
all-time leader in points,
rebounds and blocked
shots, is playing in the
WNBA.
Recee Caldwell, Mo
Mosley and Asha
Thomas graduated, and
McKenzie Forbes and
Kianna Smith trans-
ferred, leaving the Bears
with a returning group
that produced only
19.1% of last season’s
points, 32.2% of the
rebounds and 11.6% of
the assists.
“We’ve talked about it
a lot, and what I’ve
mentioned to them is
that everyone in this
program is in a new

for 12 seasons. “For me
as a first-time head
coach to every single
player who’s trying to
do something really that
they haven’t done be-
fore.
“What I think comes
with that is an excite-
ment, because now it’s
your turn, and it’s your
opportunity. And I
think when people feel
like they have opportu-
nity, they’re more will-
ing to work. So we have
a group that’s just fired
up.”
Cal returns only two
players who averaged
more than eight minutes
per game last season.
Senior forward Jaelyn
Brown averaged 7.9
points and 4.1 rebounds,
and senior center CJ
West averaged 4.3
points and 3.5 rebounds.

‘really a special player’

By Steve Kroner
After going 7-24 last
season with a freshman-
heavy roster, USF and
head coach Molly Goo-
denbour expects im-
provement in 2019-20.
And sure enough, that
improvement could be
spurred by the lone true
freshman, Ioanna Krimi-
li from Greece.
“Ioanna is really a
special player,” Gooden-
bour said of the 5-foot-10
guard who scored a
combined 45 points in
the Dons’ two exhibition
games.
“She has a scorer’s
mentality, which is great
because we didn’t have
anyone with that last
year. She looks to shoot
her shot, she’s a very
good 3-point shooter, but
she sees the floor very
well, so that’s why she’s
an asset to us at the
point guard position.”
In terms of progress-
ing from their freshman
to sophomore seasons,
Goodenbour said guard
Kia Vaalavirta and
guard/forward Abby
Rathbun “are totally
different players.”
Two graduate-transfer
forwards, Mikayla Wil-
liams from UC San Die-
go and Dolapo Balogun
from Southeast Missouri
State, provide some of
the experience the Dons
lacked last season.
Still, the Dons’ pres-
ent and future rests
mainly with their 10
freshmen and sopho-

will rely on senior guard

Carrington (14 points,

and Kiana Williams (14.3

the most productive
returning players for a
team that lost All-Amer-
ican Alanna Smith to the
WNBA Draft.
During a push to its
13th conference tourna-

players Lexie Hull shot
38% from 3-point range,

Stanford with 53 steals.
The Cardinal also expect
healthy returns from

in Padres’ crucial win 4.

By Mitch Stephens
It was another day game
Saturday at Serra and its de-
fense delivered appropriately.
“Lights out,” Serra coach
Patrick Walsh said after his
team’s 10-0 West Catholic Ath-
letic League win over Valley
Christian clinched at least a
co-championship. “That’s the
only way to describe it. Lights
out.”
The second-ranked Warriors
(8-1, 5-1) managed just 137 total
yards (41 in the second half ) and
reached the red zone only once,
that after a late Serra turnover.
But a sack by Jackson Latai-
mua, who scored the game’s
only touchdown, and an acro-
batic pass deflection in the end
zone by Terence Loville led to a
39-yard field goal try that failed
with 2:48 left, and the third-
ranked Padres ran out the clock.
In the battle of state-ranked
teams, Serra improved to 9-0
and 6-0 and needs a victory next
week at 12th-ranked St. Ignatius
(7-2, 5-1) to win the outright
crown. The Padres can also
become the first 10-0 team in
Serra’s 73-year football history.
The school’s only team to go
undefeated was the 9-0 team of
1954.

Some experts concerned
about misdiagnosis threat
By Natasha Singer
Flo and Clue, two
popular period-tracking
apps, recently introduced
health tools that evaluate
a woman’s risk for the
hormonal imbalance
known as polycystic
ovary syndrome.
In September alone,
more than 636,000 wom-
en completed the Flo
health assessments, said
the app’s developer, Flo
Health. The app then
recommended that
240,000 of those women,
or about 38%, ask their
doctors about the hor-
monal disorder. (Bio-
Wink, the developer of
Clue, declined to provide
similar usage statistics.)
But what many women
who used the Flo and
Clue health tools may not
have known is that the
apps did not conduct
high-level clinical studies
to determine the accu-
racy of their health risk
assessments or the po-
tential for unintended
consequences such as
overdiagnosis. As a re-
sult, some experts said,
the new tools could lead
some women to be la-
beled with a hormonal
imbalance they did not
have or that may have no
significant repercussions
for their health.
“You could be making

PCOS.

Uber now fights to get its edge back

By Kate Conger
A few days after Uber went
public in May and its stock
fell into a tailspin, the ride-
hailing company’s chief exec-
utive, Dara Khosrowshahi,
sent a rallying message to
employees.
“There is one simple way
for us to succeed — focus on
the work at hand and execute
against our plans effectively,”
Khosrowshahi, 50, wrote to
staff in a May 13 email. “We
simply would not be here
without you.”
Since then, Khosrowshahi’s
message has steadily become
tougher.
Faced with questions about
whether Uber can make mon-
ey and a souring environment
for unprofitable tech firms,
Khosrowshahi has laid off
more than 1,000 workers in
three rounds of job cuts. He
has ousted some top exec-
utives, and board members
have left. And in recent e-
mails to employees, he has
said Uber’s teams are “too
big,” are producing “mediocre
results” and that the company
“needs to get its edge back.”
Inside Uber, managers are
quibbling over expense re-
ports and tighter budgets,
according to four current and
former employees who de-
clined to be named because
they were not authorized to
speak publicly. Executives
have asked employees to sug-
gest perks they are willing to
give up. Some workers have
been told they need to stretch
themselves even thinner in
the wake of layoffs.
Employee frustration over
the belt-tightening has been
compounded by Uber’s de-
clining stock price, which is
about 30% below the compa-
ny’s $45 initial public offering
price. That affects how much
some workers will reap from
their company stock when a
lockup period on insider sales
of the shares ends Wednes-
day.
It all adds up to a difficult
few months for the most
prominent tech company to
go public in 2019. An IPO
was supposed to be a crown-
ing moment for Uber, but its
tribulations show that the
aftermath has been far from
easy, putting Khosrowshahi
on defense and under pres-
sure to outperform.
Uber faces another test on
Monday when it is scheduled
Dara Khosrowshahi, Uber’s chief executive, is pushing employees to do more with less and to
perform better, as he battles skepticism over the ride-hailing firm’s business.
to report its latest financial
results. The company, which
posted a record $5.2 billion
quarterly loss and slowing
growth in August, is expected
to have a $1.5 billion loss this
time and about 22% revenue
growth, according to FactSet.
At least one Wall Street ana-
lyst has publicly called Uber’s
performance a “horror show.”
“They need to show to the
market that underneath this
pile of massive losses, there’s
actually a really attractive
business model,” said Mark
Mahaney, an analyst at RBC
Capital. “First is, show us the
profits. Second, it’s show us
the growth.”
Uber declined to comment
or to make Khosrowshahi
available for an interview,
citing a quiet period before
earnings.
The challenges have been
coming nonstop for Khosrow-
shahi. When Uber went pub-
lic on May 10, its stock imme-
diately tanked, in an embar-
rassment for the heavily
hyped offering. At the end of
May, Uber reported a quarter-
ly loss of $1 billion, renewing
questions about whether the
ride-hailing service could ever
turn a profit.
In June, Khosrowshahi
moved to take more control of
Uber’s day-to-day operations.
That month, he ousted his
chief operating officer, Barney
Harford, who he had previ-
ously worked with at travel

He also forced out his chief
marketing officer, Rebecca
Messina.
Two Uber board members
— Arianna Huffington and
venture capitalist Matt Cohler
— stepped down in July. Days
later, Khosrowshahi laid off
400 people from marketing,
or about a third of the divi-
sion. That was when he be-
gan telling employees to do
better, saying in a staff memo,
“We can do more to keep the

deals with flagship brands to
bolster revenue, current and
former employees said.
In August, Uber posted the
$5.2 billion loss, which Khos-
rowshahi called a “once-in-a-
lifetime” figure. Afterward,
Nelson Chai, Uber’s chief
financial officer, sent an email
to staff titled “#FindTheMo-
ney.” It asked employees to
suggest perks they would part
Anastasiia Sapon / New York Times 2018
with and congratulated one
employee on an idea to cut
celebratory balloons from the
budget, saving the company’s
San Francisco headquarters
$200,000. Chai’s email was
earlier reported by Crunch-
base News.
That same month, Khos-
rowshahi told Bloomberg,
“We are going to be demand-
ing our employees do even
more with less.”
Khosrowshahi began hold-
ing a new kind of employee
meeting in August, called
“Global Tech Days.” In the
all-day meetings, which are
set to take place monthly, he
reviewed Uber’s progress in
detail with teams, according
to employees. The gatherings
often stretched late into the
evenings, with participants
required to sort out the prob-
lems raised in the meeting
before they departed.
In September, Uber laid off
435 employees, mostly in its
product development and
engineering teams. “It’s crit-
ical we get our edge back and
continually push ourselves to
do better,” Khosrowshahi said
in a note to employees at the
time.
That same day, Uber faced
a new hurdle when California
legislators voted to pass a bill
that would effectively force
the company to treat its driv-
ers, who are contractors, as
employees. A reclassification
of drivers could significantly
ratchet up Uber’s costs be-
cause it does not pay contrac-
tors full-time benefits.
Uber has said its drivers
would not be affected by the
new California law, which
takes effect on Jan. 1, because
its core business is technol-
ogy and not rides. It has
backed a ballot initiative to
carve out gig economy com-
panies from the law.
To rev up growth, Uber
has introduced new business
initiatives. In September, it
unveiled a new version of its
app that combined rides and
food delivery to emphasize its
multiple services. In an in-
terview at the time, Khosrow-
shahi said Uber was becom-
ing an “operating system for
your everyday life.”
Uber rolled out a blitz of
other new efforts last month.
It introduced a hiring plat-
form called Uber Works that
helps find temporary jobs for
gig workers. It bought a ma-
jority stake in Cornershop, a
grocery delivery service based
in Santiago, Chile. And on
Oct. 28, it started Uber Mon-
ey, which are financial prod-
ucts for drivers.
At the same time, the cost-
cutting has continued. Uber
laid off 400 employees in food
delivery, autonomous vehicle
development and other divi-
sions in October. In one post-
layoff discussion, managers
reiterated that workers would
have to do more with less,
according to an employee
who attended the meeting.
Uber has also consolidated
the internal systems on which
its technology runs as it has
combined rides and food de-
livery into a single app, said
one person familiar with the
project. The project, code-
named Crane after construc-
tion cranes, let engineers use
the same tools to make sure
their code was running
smoothly, instead of each
team building their own sys-
tems, the person said.
In October, he toured Ub-
er’s offices in India and began
a public transit partnership.
On Monday, he is sched-
uled to talk to Wall Street
about Uber’s earnings before
appearing on Wednesday at
the New York Times’ Deal-
Book conference in New
York.

How Alexander Valley put up a fight

fire raging nearby. But the
Millers felt they had to stay.
In fact, they had to pick
grapes.
At the time, about 20% of
Garden Creek’s 2019 crop still
hung from the vines. What
remained was Cabernet Sau-
vignon, the basis for Tesserae,
its most expensive wine at
$100 a bottle. In 2017, the Mill-
ers lost their entire red wine
crop to smoke taint after the
Pocket Fire.
“We can’t lose the grapes
again,” said Justin Miller.
“It’s our livelihood,” said
Karin Miller. “That Cabernet is
how we make our money.”
Justin Miller’s family has
owned Garden Creek since
1963; Karin Miller’s family has
been in Alexander Valley since
1975. The Millers’ dedication to
their land is typical of this
Sonoma County enclave,
where many families have
multigenerational roots.
Stretching between the
tourist meccas of Calistoga
and Healdsburg, the rugged
and remote Alexander Valley
feels a world apart from both.
Its main artery, Highway 128,
is shadowed by the canopy of
a dense, hilly, vineyard-dotted
forest, on the benchlands of
the Mayacamas Mountains.
Whereas most of Sonoma
County is known for Pinot
Noir, the Alexander Valley
specialty is brooding, muscu-
lar Cabernet Sauvignon. The
valley has no fancy restau-
rants or tony hotels — just the
Jimtown Store, a cafe and
country store that serves as
the de facto gathering place.
By 10 p.m. Wednesday, the
Millers had assembled their
vineyard crew, who drove
down from Cloverdale. Their
full-time, seven-person crew
includes four brothers whose
father started working on the
ranch in 1964. She acknowl-
edged that some people might
criticize them for asking a
crew to work under dangerous
conditions. But they were
desperate, she said: If they
didn’t harvest now, they might
not get another chance.
As the fire drew closer,
however, the Millers became
concerned for the crew’s safety
and told them to go home. The
crew declined, according to
Karin Miller. “They said,
‘We’re not going anywhere,’ ”
she said. (The Chronicle was
not able to reach members of
the vineyard crew for com-
ment.)
By 4 a.m. the Garden Creek
crew had picked 4 tons of
grapes, Karin Miller said. Ten
tons remain in the vineyard,
and the Millers don’t intend to

“Watching and reading the
news makes it seem like all of
Sonoma is on fire,” Bernstein
wrote in an email newsletter to
her customers.
Wineries, tasting rooms,
restaurants and hotels across
the county — even the ones
fortunate enough to have
avoided threats from fires,
smoke, power outages and
evacuations last week — have
reported mass cancellations
and plunges in revenue. A full
economic report on the losses
is due by year’s end, but in a
county in which 89% of busi-
nesses are classified as small
businesses — meaning they
employ 25 or fewer people —
the disruption presents an
existential threat. Fall is Wine

Meanwhile, friends arrived
to help the Millers clear their
property of fire danger, using
leaf blowers to create fire
breaks and hoses to dampen
lawn furniture. A neighbor
came over with a water truck.
They doused their home.
Garden Creek made it
through the night unscathed,
but the ordeal began all over
again on Saturday, when gale-
force winds whipped up the
Kincade Fire. “Pine Flat Road
took off to the east of us, and
that’s when the ridgeline went
crazy,” Karin Miller said.
“There were fire trucks every-
where, keeping the flare-ups
under control.”
Neighbors started calling
each other frantically. Four
friends arrived on the Garden
Creek property, and together
they started securing the
property’s perimeters. They
inspected every tree stump to
extinguish any smoldering
embers, now at risk of grow-
ing in the wind. They wore
special backpacks that allowed
them to pump water directly
onto a flame.
“It was so windy that every-
thing was just everywhere,”
Karin Miller said. “By 1 a.m.
the winds were so heavy that

Kincade Fire broke out. “Now
that this event has happened,
I’m really worried,” she said.
It may be time, Vecchio said,
to rethink the region’s empha-
sis on drawing visitors in the
fall.
“When we look at all these
realities, it’s incumbent on us
to consider pivoting our mar-
keting strategy to focus on the
springtime,” Vecchio said.
That’s the season of bud break,
when grape leaves emerge
from winter dormancy and the
vineyards grow verdant. “We
need to highlight the time of
year when Mother Nature is
going to be on our side.”
Sam Bilbro, owner of Idle-
wild Wines in Healdsburg, has
the same idea: With fall becom-
ing synonymous with wild-
fires, locals need to rework
Wine Country’s image in the
popular imagination.
“Spring is absolutely beauti-
ful. Winter is astonishing,”
Bilbro said. “We need people to
see that this is a year-round
community thriving. That’s
something I hope we can gain
from this.”
Now that the immediate
threat appears to have passed,
the best thing outsiders can do

rington said, is to come and

ers to leave. “They kept saying,
‘You sure you know what
you’re getting into?’ ” Karin
Miller recalled. “They were
amazing, running around
trying to deal with the big
fires.”
She knew that Garden
Creek was not likely to be
their first priority.
“We just felt like we could
handle it ourselves,” she said.
“They took care of the big
stuff, and we took care of
some of the little stuff.”
After another frenzied night
— now the second close call in
three days — Garden Creek’s
winery and the Millers’ home
were spared.
The Millers were not the
only Alexander Valley family
who chose to stay and fight
despite the risk. “It’s hard to
understand if you’re not a
farmer,” Karin Miller said.
“You have to stay and protect
it yourself.”
Authorities have said during
California wildfires that peo-
ple who do not heed evacua-
tion orders are endangering
not only themselves, but also
first responders. “Our priority
is always protecting life first
and property second,” Cal Fire
information officer Robert
Foxworthy said. “So when
there are large fires and people

spend money. A few hundred
structures, including historic
wineries, were destroyed. But
most businesses are either
open now or ready to reopen as
soon as evacuation orders lift.
“We want to get back to
work, to get back to normalcy
because that’s really healing in
a way,” Bilbro said.
Even as they consider spe-
cial promotions for spring,
Vecchio and her organization
are scrambling to cobble to-
stay in the area, they become
our No. 1 priority, and we’re
not able to focus on getting the
fire extinguished.”
Other winery owners evacu-
ated after helping put some
infrastructure in place for the
firefighters. At Hanna Winery,
Chris Hanna — whose family
has been in Alexander Valley
since 1986 — hooked up hoses
to the property’s fire hydrants,
turned on the overhead sprin-
klers and left the gate open so
that the first responders could
get on the property. Then
Hanna retreated to her home
on Healdsburg’s Fitch Moun-
tain. Despite some rumors to
the contrary, Hanna Winery
did not burn.
Before fleeing in the early
hours of Thursday morning,
Hafner Vineyards owner-
winemaker Parke Hafner laid
out his fire hoses and directed
firefighters to his 10,000-gal-
lon water tank and swimming
pool. While he was gone, the

Blue Bottle moves roasting to Sacramento

“It was a numbers
thing,” he said. “For the
same rent, we can have
something in Sacramento
that is seven times bigger
than in Oakland.”
The relocation follows
a series of moves by the
company to centralize
operations. Up until a
few years ago, Blue Bottle
operated small roasters
inside of or adjacent to
cafes in Oakland, Los
Angeles, Brooklyn and
Tokyo. Meehan said
those spaces became
impractical as Blue Bottle
continued to expand — it
has since closed all of
those roasters in favor of
bigger facilities.
Ever since Nestlé pur-
chased a majority stake
in Blue Bottle in 2017, the
coffee company has faced
a perception that it’s
moving further and fur-
ther away from its indie
roots. Founder James
Freeman started Blue
Bottle in 2002, roasting
beans in a shed in Oak-
land in the pursuit of
truly fresh coffee. Now, it
has 90 cafes around the
world, supplies grocery
chains with cartons of
iced coffee and is valued
at more than $700 mil-
lion. While still involved
in the company, Freeman
now lives in Southern
California.
Jason Sarley, an editor
and analyst at the online
guide Coffee Review, said
Blue Bottle is in a tricky
position as a midsize
specialty coffee roaster at
a time when there is
intense demand for high-
end coffee worldwide.
There is only so much

every year by farmers,
and Blue Bottle can’t

are scheduled to close in
connection with the
move. If anything, the
bigger facility signals
even greater retail expan-
sion. Meehan said the
Sacramento location is
operating at just 20%
capacity right now —
three Loring roasters are
currently set up, but the
space can easily fit 10.
While Meehan said
there aren’t confirmed
plans to bring Blue Bottle
to more of the West
Coast, he said he would
love to open cafes in Ore-
gon and Washington as
well as other California
cities like Sacramento.
This year, Blue Bottle
entered the San Diego
market for the first time.
“I don’t want Blue
Bottle to be an Oakland-
San Francisco-Los Ange-
les company,” he said.
“We’re obviously rooted
in California and want to

expand in California.”
The new Loring roast-
ers are also part of Blue
Bottle’s sustainability
efforts. They burn as
much as 80% less gas
than the roasters Blue
Bottle used in Oakland,
according to Freeman.
“Although I loved the
way our coffee tasted on
our vintage Probat roast-
ers, as we roast more
coffee, sustainability is
becoming a more press-
ing concern,” Freeman
said in an email. “Even
better, the clarity and
articulation of the coffee
has also improved.”
Given the trajectory of
Blue Bottle thus far, Sar-
ley can’t help but wonder
if it might inadvertently
follow in the footsteps of
Peet’s Coffee, which he
said ended up buying less
specialty coffee in order
to reach a broader audi-
ence as it rapidly grew.
For now, though, the
company is still opening
gorgeous cafes and mak-
ing delicious lattes, he
said.
“The thing that set
Blue Bottle apart from
any other specialty roast-
er and brought an iconic
shift in specialty coffee
was their process — not
just in coffee but the
meticulous way they
trained staff and present-
ed the experience,” Sar-
ley said. “I think they still
excel at a lot of the things
they were celebrated for
before they were pur-
chased.”

Even if you already
paid your credit card bill
in full, you can still con-
test the charge. During
the time that the credit
card company investi-
gates, the questionable
charge is removed from
your outstanding balance
and you are not required
to pay it or the portion of
your balance, or any
interest, until the dispute
is resolved. If the credit
card company rules in
your favor, it simply
pulls the money back out
of the seller’s account
and credits yours.
But don’t abuse
chargeback power. Be-
fore disputing a charge,
give the offending com-
pany a reasonable
chance to make things
right. Chargebacks are
serious problems for
businesses that get hit
with them: They lose the
disputed amounts, plus
pay fees of $25 to $100,
depending on the credit
card company. If they get
too many chargebacks,
they can lose their right
to accept credit cards.
The process is so con-
sumer-friendly and pow-
erful that often just
threatening to make a
chargeback request will
get merchants to do the
right thing.

BUSINESS
Sale of home can
trigger surcharge
Pender from page D1
outpatient services, and Part
D, which covers prescription
drugs. (Part A, which covers
hospital stays, is premium-
free.)
Although Medicare sets
Part B premiums, the Social
Security Administration looks
at your income from the pre-
vious year to see if you will
owe a surcharge for the next
year. For 2020, it generally
will look at your 2018 tax
return. Social Security usually
notifies people in late
November if they will owe a
surcharge for the next year.
The surcharge surprises
many people who had a one-
year spike in income, perhaps
because they sold a home,
took a large withdrawal from
a tax-sheltered retirement
account or converted a regular
IRA to a Roth IRA.
You can ask Social Security
to reduce or eliminate the
surcharge if your income has
gone down because you expe-
rienced one of a small handful
of “life-changing events,” in-
cluding the death of a spouse
or retirement. Selling a home
or taking a big retirement
plan distribution is not among
those qualifying events.
If you know about the sur-
charge in advance, you might
be able to take steps to reduce
or avoid it. “IRMAA planning
is quite popular these days,”
said Michael Kitces, director
of wealth management with
Pinnacle Advisory Group.
But avoiding the surcharge
shouldn’t drive your invest-
ment or life decisions. “Rela-
tive to the income it takes to
cause IRMAA, the actual
Medicare premium surcharge
is fairly modest,” Kitces said.
That’s small consolation to
the Bullocks, who used their
home-sale proceeds to buy a
condo and weren’t prepared
for a $9,000 jump in their

annual Medicare costs. Bull-
ock is relieved to learn that
their premiums will drop back
to the base level next year.
The Part B surcharge was
authorized under the Medicare
Modernization Act of 2003,
but didn’t take effect until
2007. The Affordable Care Act
of 2010 ushered in the sur-
charge for Part D premiums,
starting in 2011.
To determine the surcharge,
Social Security uses your ad-
justed gross income, plus
tax-exempt interest. For 2019,
anyone whose income (gener-
ally for 2017) was not higher
than $85,000 (single) or
$170,000 (married) pays the
standard Part B premium of
$135.50 per person per month.
Anyone who earned even a
dollar more pays the standard
premium plus a surcharge.
The surcharge for 2019
starts at $54.10 per month for
singles making $85,001 to
$107,000 and married couples
with income between $170,001
and $214,000.
There are four more income
brackets, each with a higher
surcharge. It tops out at $325
per month for those making at
least $500,000 (single) or
$750,000 (couples).
Those same five income
brackets are used for the Part
D surcharge, which is calculat-
ed separately. For 2019, the
Part D surcharge ranged from
$12.40 to $77.40 per month
depending on income. For
2020, it will be slightly less,
ranging from $12.20 to $76.40
per month. (Medicare has not
yet announced next year’s Part
B premiums and surcharges.)
Before 2011, these income
brackets were adjusted for
inflation each year, so the
surcharge wouldn’t hit more
than 5% of Medicare beneficia-
ries. But the Affordable Care
Act froze the brackets from
2011 through 2019. As a result,
3.7 million or 7% of beneficia-
N
ries paid it last year, according
to Juliette Cubanski, an associ-
ate director with the Kaiser
Family Foundation.
For 2020, the bottom four
income brackets will be ad-
justed slightly upward, gener-
ally by a few thousand dol-
lars. The lowest one will start
at $87,000 (single) and
$174,000 (married). The top
brackets — $500,000 (single)
or $750,000 (married) — will
be frozen until 2027.
People in Medicare Ad-
vantage plans are also subject
to the Part B surcharge, and
the Part D surcharge if their
plan includes drug coverage.
When you get your “initial
determination” of a surcharge,
you can ask for a “new
determination,” based on a
more recent tax year than the
one the surcharge was based
on, if you experienced one of
these life-changing events:
death of a spouse, marriage,
divorce or annulment, work
reduction, work stoppage, loss
of income-producing property
because of a disaster or event
beyond your control, loss or
reduction of pension income,
or receipt of a settlement from
an employer that shut down
or reorganized.
People are “quite often suc-
cessful” in getting a surcharge
reduced or eliminated because
of these events, but they’ll
have to provide documenta-
tion, said Casey Schwarz,
senior counsel at the Medicare
Rights Center, a nonprofit

reconsideration.”
Selling a home is not
grounds for an appeal. How-
ever, when you sell your pri-
mary residence, you generally
can exclude the first $250,000
in capital gains ($500,000 if
married) from your income if
you have lived in it two of the
past five years. “If the income
is excluded, it can’t trigger”
the surcharge, Kitces said.
He added that if someone is
close to the top of an income
threshold, where an additional
dollar will kick them into the
next-higher surcharge, they
might want to consider taking
year-end steps to avoid going
over. For example, they might
want to reduce their income
by making a “qualified chari-
table distribution” from their
IRA directly to a charity or
selling investments in which
they have a capital loss.
“On the other hand, some-
times the best way to plan for
IRMAA is to avoid it next
year by pulling income for-
ward into this year, which
might include taking extra
IRA distributions to cover
next year’s spending, doing a
partial Roth conversion,” or
selling investments in which
you have a gain “specifically
to reduce income enough to
avoid the threshold next year,”
Kitces said.

Umami, a
Peaches Crew
member, DJs at
Undiscovered SF.
By Nina Tabios
To be a DJ requires finesse, knowing
the precise timing of a song and how to
seamlessly move on to another track,
while keeping the crowd dancing with-
out missing a beat. But for female DJs
like Melanie Panergo, it also requires
convincing every man behind the decks
that, yes, she belongs there too.
“Every time I DJd, I was always with
my male counterparts, and I was either
overrated, underrated or not taken
seriously,” says Panergo, whose DJ
name, ThatGirl, is her way of owning
those times she was referred to as, “that
girl DJ.” “I had to fight extra hard for
the culture, for the music.”
Thankfully for Panergo, she doesn’t
have to fight the battle alone. As part of
the Peaches Crew, ThatGirl has
strength in a sisterhood of female DJs
who spin throughout the Bay Area.
This year, the crew marks its 10th anni-
versary, making Peaches Crew the lon-
gest-running group of women in the
region rocking the turntables.
Masaye Waugh was a bartender at
the Skylark in San Francisco when she
got the idea to form an all-female DJ
crew in 2009. Handpicking each Peach,

her crew’s roster reads like a super-
group: Diane Medina, who spins as
Deeandroid, is a two-time placing turn-
tablist at the Disco Mix Club’s World DJ
Championships; Erin Ready, who DJs
as Lady Fingaz, also placed during a
U.S.A. Team DMC competition in 2010,
and not only spins but is a vocalist;
Ieanna Cruz, known throughout the
Bay Area as DJ Umami, is a rotating DJ
for the Golden State Warriors; Lady-
Ryan, who refuses to go by her “govern-
ment name,” was awarded the title of
“Best DJ Who Dabbles in Every Scene”
by the East Bay Express in 2016; Mercy
Connor spins as Pony P and toured
with East Bay rap legend Too Short; and
Panergo launched a career that now has
her playing gigs on the national level,
including the Democratic State Conven-
tion afterparty for Kamala Harris.
Together, the Peaches Crew has set
the bar for what the DJ scene should
look like in a woke society. Each with
more than a decade behind the turn-
tables, they bring their unique flair,
taste and perspective to every dance
party.
“The diversity of Peaches is organic.
We’re San Francisco, Oakland, the

whole Bay Area. We’re mixed races,
different religions backgrounds, differ-
ent sexualities, and we celebrate that,”
says Waugh, known by the crew as
Mama Peach. “That’s what Peaches has
always been about: the sisterhood de-
spite the differences. The beauty of us
united.”
Finding other like-minded, music
obsessed women was “a breath of fresh
air,” Panergo says; a respite from trudg-
ing through the boys’ club of DJing. It’s
a support system that has become pivot-
al to their self-care as DJs.
“We all come together and talk about
our struggles,” Cruz says. “We have our
little side-eye subject matter, but having
the girls and being able to relate to the
same things just makes you feel better.
It’s like going to therapy.”
To see the Peaches sustain what she
started in 2009 has been a point of pride
for Waugh. The founder, though not a
DJ, saw how hip-hop parties were
packed with locals and wanted to repli-
cate that at the Skylark. Initially, she
wanted to experiment and make Peach-
es an electronic party, but it was clear
hip-hop won over fans in the Mission
District on weeknights.
Medina and Cruz were at the top of
Waugh’s list, a pair of DJs who had very
different skill sets but were equally
dedicated to the craft. Medina came up
in the late 1990s battle-DJ scene and
took notes from the Bay Area’s turn-
table wizard himself, DJ Qbert. Cruz,
who had just started playing publicly
back then, was a party rocker who also
came up under established DJs, naming
Paolo “Cutso” Bello of the San Jose
Bangerz crew as one of her mentors.
The two were then joined by Ready, a
turntablist from New Orleans, and
Panergo, a selector from San Jose, to
become the original four Peaches mem-
bers.
“DJing has always been a male-dom-
inated niche, so working and estab-
lishing a connection with other women
who love DJing, love music and had a
passion for this art has been empower-
ing,” Medina says.
Over time, the Peaches expanded,
adding Connor in 2013 and LadyRyan
three years later.
An Oakland mainstay, LadyRyan is a
polymath DJ, well-versed in all genres
and capable of playing to fit any vibe,
evident as a co-founding member of the

queer monthly Oakland day party, Sou-
lovely, and weekly resident for parties at
Somar Bar and Hello Stranger.
Connor, on the other hand, is an
ardent hip-hop DJ, whom Ready calls
the “wild card” of the group. She has an
ear for playing floor-rattling hip-hop
but admits she didn’t truly feel like
herself when she was DJing for rappers
like Too Short or Mobb Deep because
she said she “often felt like I was just
pressing play/pause.”
“I had gigs at dirty dive bars, happy
hours, clubs and the occasional corpo-
rate events or weddings, but couldn’t
always showcase my skills or play what
I wanted to,” Connor says. “But to feel
accepted and a part of this crew defi-

These days the Peaches Crew rarely
perform as a six-person unit, now that
each has a successful hustle of their
own that keeps them busy most days
and nights. Instead, Peaches are more
likely to pair off and rotate to play their

same weekly party that Waugh founded
the crew under a decade ago, or the

and pride. It’s even more rewarding that
it’s going stronger than ever.”

DANCE
Smuin’s Christmas list checked off after 25 years
By Sam Whiting
Smuin Contemporary Ballet
dancers don’t normally use
white respirator masks, but
they have been vagabonds for
25 years and they weren’t go-
ing to wait another day. They
were willing to breathe in
paint fumes and dust to finally
rehearse in their long-awaited
and still-unfinished $10 mil-
lion studio at the base of Po-
trero Hill.
The San Francisco company
founded by the late choreogra-
pher Michael Smuin in 1994
had never managed to secure a
studio lease, but now it owns a
space in the city. So this first
day of rehearsal for its annual
“The Christmas Ballet” was
historic because it marked the
first day the 16-dancer troupe
could rehearse at the official
Smuin Center for Dance.
Gone is the hassle and the
wear and tear of subletting
space, which meant dancers
were kicked out for children’s
classes. Gone are the days
they’d have to pack up their
gear, traipse across town and
find parking at some other
borrowed space, with a differ-
ent sprung floor to adapt to.
Shin splints and knee troubles
are an occupational hazard in
constantly changing surfaces.
So is transportation. Most
dancers supplement their
income by teaching. Without a
studio they are like adjunct
professors, known as “freeway

fliers,” shuttling between
dance schools.
But now Smuin can offer its
own schedule of classes with
its own dancers as instructors.
“To be able to have a home
that is ours opens up so much
potential for what the compa-
ny can do for the city as far as
outreach, teaching and bring-
ing up the next generation
with a deep love of Smuin,”
says Tessa Barbour, 26, who is

so giddy that you’d think her
respirator mask is connected
to laughing gas.
And Barbour has only been
with the company for four
years. Terez Dean Orr, 31, is a
12-year veteran and grew wea-
ry from the wandering.
“City Ballet, the Academy of
Ballet, ODC, Lines, Margaret
Jenkins,” she says, counting
them off. She’s on her second
set of five fingers when she
loses steam trying to remem-
ber the others. But she’s made
her point. “There’s a joy in
knowing that we have made it
as a nonprofit organization in
one of the most expensive
cities.”
There is also joy for her in
knowing the deal was made by
her husband, John Speed Orr,
a retired Smuin dancer turned
commercial real estate agent
with Vanguard Properties.
Smuin had been looking for
property for years and was
always outbid. Then Speed
Orr became the company’s
agent in 2015, as soon as he got
his license. “I was uniquely
able to do this job,” says Speed
Orr, 31, who grew up in Fair-
fax. “I’ve spent my entire life
in ballet studios. I can walk
into a space and see myself
jumping and qualify it imme-
diately.”
This happened the minute
Speed Orr walked into the
Metronome Ballroom. It had
just been listed, so Smuin
acted fast, bidding nearly $1
million over asking price to
win a four-way bidding war.
Two Smuin board members
provided a bridge loan so the
company could pay the $4.7
million in cash.
Built in 1949 as an oddly
shaped warehouse to fit a
freight line, the building had
to be gutted. A $10 million
capital campaign is ongoing to
retrofit and build out the
space, and to launch outreach
programs.

she says.
The Smuin Center is not a
performance venue. Smuin is a
road company that travels
light. It carries its own por-
table sprung floor, but not
much in the way of sets or live
accompaniment. Its contempo-
rary dance programs are set to
recorded pop and classical
music and staged at Yerba
Buena Center for the Arts in
San Francisco, as well as in
Walnut Creek, Carmel and
Mountain View. The audience
for its performances totals
about 25,000 per season. There
may soon be more because the
studio frontage on 17th Street
has blinds that can be opened
to the sun and to new audi-
ence members on the sidewalk
and the passing 22-Fillmore.
That first day was celebrat-
ed with a wine reception for
donors and board members.
After dancing a solo to Linda
Ronstadt’s “La Calandria,”
Barbour swapped out her
black sombrero and red serape
for street clothes to serve
drinks. Then donors sat in a
square of chairs in one of the
studios. They were happy to
breathe the paint fumes and
dust just like the performers.
“It makes me cry,” says Patti
Hume, the company’s first
board president. “It’s a dream
come true.”

At last, writer
revisits lives of
Elio and Oliver
By Jessica Zack
Whatever happened to Elio
and Oliver? When the lovers
parted ways at the end of
their summer romance in the
film “Call Me by Your Name”
— after they’d ridden bikes
through the northern Italian
countryside and spent lan-
guid days swimming and
making love at Elio’s 17th
century family villa — fans of
the 2017 film clamored to
know whether the hunky
archaeology grad student
(played by Armie Hammer)
and sincere 17-year-old pianist
(Timothée Chalamet) would
ever reunite.
André Aciman, who wrote
the 2007 novel from which
the movie was adapted, ad-
mits he wasn’t sure. He
mused for years over the
ways he might craft a new
rendezvous for the ill-fated
couple whose fictional con-
nection had, unexpectedly,
become an iconic gay love
story.
But every time Aciman
tried to pick up where “Call
Me by Your Name” left off, he
felt the story got bogged
down in repetition — until a
fateful train trip in 2016
through Italy. Aciman, 68,
met a woman half his age
who had boarded the train
with her dog. They chatted.
Then she departed, and Aci-
man realized she was compel-
ling enough to be the catalyst
for revisiting not only Elio
and Oliver, but also Elio’s
soulful father, Samuel.
“As soon as she left, I start-
ed writing the new story,”
Aciman says.
His much-anticipated se-
quel, “Find Me” (released on
Tuesday, Oct. 29), opens on a
train where Samuel, now
divorced, meets 20-something
Miranda. The novel then
revisits Elio, an accomplished
classical pianist, and eventu-

and Timothée Chalamet.
ally Oliver too, over the next
20 years of their lives.
True to form for Aciman,
“Find Me” is erotically
charged and unabashedly
romantic. Aciman recently
spoke to The Chronicle by
phone from his home in New
York, ahead of his Nov. 6
appearance at Sydney Gold-
stein Theater.
Q: Why did you decide to

write a sequel to “Call Me
by Your Name”? Were you
still thinking about these
characters you created
more than 12 years ago, or
did you give in to pressure
from fans who were dying
to know what happened to
Elio and Oliver after their
summer affair?
A: These characters never left
me. And, yes, people kept
writing to me, asking and
asking. I always thought I
needed to revisit them be-
cause (the affair) had been
hastily terminated. And I
tried many, many times to do
it, but it felt forced and artifi-
cial until I realized that by
starting with Elio, I was im-
itating something that I had
already created. And then it
came to me that it was advan-
tageous to start with the fa-
ther, Samuel, instead, and
that worked. It’s a good thing
I deflected Elio. Otherwise, it
would have been too much
like “Rocky II,” “Rocky III,”
“Rocky IV,” which I didn’t
want to write.
Q: The father-son relation-
ship is central to both nov-
els. In “Find Me,” Elio even
gets to say to Samuel, who’s
recently fallen in love,
something his dad told him
in the first book: “I envy
the two of you. Please
don’t ruin it.”
A: He would have been 17
when his father first said
that. I wanted to show that in
great relationships, age is
meaningless. Everybody’s of a
different age in “Find Me,”
which I love because it makes
everything between two hu-
man beings worthy of dis-
covery and unpredictable. If
you have two 18-year-olds
riding a train together, they’ll
speak Millennial to each oth-
er. They’ll discover what
bands and movies they like,
and within an hour they’ll be
kissing. There’s no bridge to
cross, whereas when you
have people of different ages,

find love, lose love, find it
again and so on. So it comes
very naturally to me.
I think that when two indi-
viduals get close and are na-
ked together, there’s some-
thing extraordinarily beautiful
happening, and it’s something
quite unusual, if you think
about it. The walls between
them are demolished, so for a
few minutes or a few hours
they forget themselves and
their bodies become indistin-
guishable. That intimacy to
me is the magic of sex, and
you have to keep it in mind
writing a scene. If you don’t,
then you just have porn, or
calisthenics.
Q: What do you make of
how the “peach scene” you
wrote in “Call Me by Your
Name,” this intimate mo-
ment between Elio and
Oliver, became an obses-
sion for so many people
after it was portrayed in
the film, inspiring count-
less memes and tweets?
A: I enjoyed writing the scene
very much. How it came to
me, or how so many things
come to a writer, is quite

Unsung hero of Beat poets gaining stature

By Denise Sullivan

There are people who re-

member poet Bob Kaufman
rushing down Columbus Ave-
nue by day or, alternately at
night, leaning against a street-
lamp after being kicked out of a
North Beach nightspot. Per-
haps he’d recited a poem from a
tabletop or came on a little too
loud or too strong. But San
Francisco poet Alejandro Mur-
guía recalls another side of
Kaufman, the one who was
stoic and silent in the face of
America’s tragedies.
“One of the first places I ever
read in San Francisco was at
the Coffee Gallery on Grant
Avenue,” said Murguía, then a
young poet fresh from Los
Angeles and new to the coun-
terculture scene in which Kauf-
man was a regular.
“He wasn’t speaking a whole
lot then,” Murguía said, re-
ferring to Kaufman’s self-im-
posed vow of silence that began
with the assassination of Presi-
dent John F. Kennedy and end-
ed with the close of the Viet-
nam War. “I had just intro-
duced my poem for him, and
he walked in and sat in the
front row. Afterward he gets
up, thanks me, shakes my hand
and walks back out into North
Beach.”
It’s hardly the kind of tale
traded among poets across
tables in the North Beach bar-
rooms, but it was Murguía’s
initiation, and his introduction
to a legend.
“He was my Beat hero,”
Murguía said. “Not Ferlinghet-
ti. Not Ginsberg.”
Yet, unlike those of his con-
temporaries Allen Ginsberg
and Jack Kerouac, Kaufman’s
legacy as a Beat Generation
writer has been slower to re-
veal itself. Just three books —
“Solitudes Crowded With
Loneliness,” “Golden Sardine”
and “The Ancient Rain” —
were published in his lifetime

(he died in 1986). His poems
from Beatitude, the arts publi-
cation he co-founded in 1959,
and other works were left scat-
tered in broadsides and previ-
ously uncompiled (he didn’t
always write them down).
Prone to depression and self-
medicating, he faced other
factors contributing to his lack

of renown, and not least among
them the fact that he was black
in a largely white literary
world.
On Tuesday, Nov. 5, City
Lights Books will finally pub-
lish “The Collected Poems of
Bob Kaufman,” edited by his
friends, the poet Neeli Cher-
kovski and Kaufman’s final
editor, Raymond Foye. The
book includes a discovery time-
line by Beat historian Tate
Swindell, with a foreword by
poet Devorah Major.
The body of work is small
but voluminous in intensity,
spirit and soul, with a lineage
that runs from Charles Baude-
laire to Charles Mingus. Kauf-
man — with his commitment to
the art, his surreal eye on the
urban experience and beyond
it, and his jazz timing — brings
San Francisco to life. Though
as dramatically as the city has
changed since the Beat era,
some things have stayed the
same. His poem titled, “Oct.
5th, 1963,” is addressed to the
Chronicle’s letters to the editor
and reads, “Arriving back in
San Francisco to be greeted by
a blacklist and eviction, I am
writing these lines to the re-
sponsible non-people. One
thing is certain, I am not white.
Thank God for that. It makes
everything else bearable.”

“Kaufman is indeed a Black
Beat and wants this to be re-
membered, wants his sense of
self to be remembered,” writes
Major, a San Francisco poet
and educator who knew Kauf-
man as a friend to her father,
Reginald Major. Kaufman was
middle-aged and living in a
small hotel in North Beach
when he attended one of her
early readings at the Coffee
Gallery.
“Just his presence, his quiet
support, was my ticket to con-
tinue to ride the wild ride and
sometimes torturous seas of
poetry,” Major wrote in the
foreword to the collected
works.
“He could have only done
what he did in San Francisco,
and yet, he’s frequently left out
of the narrative,” said San
Francisco poet laureate Kim
Shuck. “Consequently people

don’t read him as much as they
should.”
“I often talk about Bob at my
readings,” Murguía said. “One
of the theories of how the Beat
Generation got its name was
from Beatitude magazine.”
Murguía, Shuck, Major and a
new generation of poets of
color can identify with Kauf-
man’s San Francisco, where it
was once possible to live cheap-
ly and explore the outer limits
of creativity, but it wasn’t al-
ways kind. Kaufman’s poetic
documents of living in a hostile
city, within a nation divided,
are vivid in their depiction of
struggle: He was arrested over
30 times and occasionally
wrote from the county jail.

ni; Albert Camus; Kaufman’s
wife, Eileen Singe; and their
son, Parker (named for saxo-
phonist Charlie Parker). But
Kaufman’s identity as a poet
outlaw with outsider status
speaks loudly to those who feel
the same. He is their touch-
stone, a perpetual, untainted
well that nourishes, in poetry’s
grand tradition.
“The essence of so much of
today’s poetry is about identi-
ty,” said Josiah Luis Alderete, a
performance poet who
emerged during San Francis-
co’s ’90s spoken word renais-
sance. “He embodied the phys-
icality of what people consid-
ered to be the poet spouting
poetry at the bagel shop. But I
soon found out under the im-
age, in the words, there was a
sense of place and his culture,
from New Orleans and San
Francisco.”

ple’s stuff,” Eisen-Martin said.
When he finally opened Kauf-
man’s “Solitudes Crowded with
Loneliness,” he discovered he
and Kaufman shared part of a
line, “I am not an eye.”
“It scared me. I was afraid of
what else I would find,” Eisen-
Martin said, though he contin-
ued to read. “His way of experi-
encing the universe, basically
turning everything into fuel, is
why the poet is so dangerous.
“Every single thing you
throw at us, every sliver of
injustice, of oppression, of
farce, along with everything
beautiful, we’re going to take it
and we’re going to transform it
into a torrential consciousness
that will be dropped on you.
Kaufman is really like a down-
pour. His poems read like an
invincible stream.”
As for why academe has not
elevated Kaufman to the high-
est level a poet can achieve,
Eisen-Martin laughed, “So
many people could be bigger,
but this society doesn’t make
any sense. It’s so ridiculous, it’s
a wonder there’s any art at all.”
He does, however, offer an-
other reason.

By the late ’70s, Kaufman
was not performing his poems
but writing them and living in
relative obscurity in what was
then a very funky North Beach.
His neighbor Raymond Foye,
the new collection’s co-editor,
was responsible for rescuing
from a hotel fire the pages of
what would become “The An-
cient Rain.”
“For most of the years I
knew him, he was determined
to maintain his distance from
the social, material world,”
writes Foye, who experienced
Kaufman both as a practicing
Buddhist and a party person.
“His silence remains a witness
to an eternal truth.”
Kaufman died in San Fran-

emphysema. Sixty years after
its founding, City Lights re-

after poets, including Bob

centralized in the Mission

poets reading in the style of
Kaufman: urgent, prophetic,

“Bob Kaufman was so far

the end, his run will be much
longer,” Shuck said. “His
words will be the ones that

Ben Mendelsohn,
my uncomplicated
celebrity crush
By Flora Tsapovsky
Everyone remembers their
first celebrity crush. Mine
occurred at the uncomfortable
age of 31; disheveled, troubled
and significantly bruised by a
lifetime of wrong turns, it was
Ben Mendelsohn portraying
Danny Rayburn on the Netflix
series “Bloodline.”
This was the first time Men-
delsohn, an established Aus-
tralian actor, came to my at-
tention. Aside from the some-
what-acknowledged “Animal
Kingdom,” a 2010 film directed
by David Michod, the series
was the actor’s big break into
the collective celebrity uni-
verse. Now Michod and Men-
delsohn are back at it again, in
the new Netflix film “The
King.” Everyone’s already
talking about it — Timothée
Chalamet’s bowl cut! Robert
Pattinson’s French accent! But
instead, we should all be
drooling over Mendelsohn.
Not in this film alone, but as a
general guideline for surviving
life. In fact, there’s never been
a better moment.
As far as sexy, famous men
are concerned, we’ve always
shifted from the good guy to
the bad guy and vice versa.
The textbook good celebrity
crush is somewhat aspiration-
al; a better version of the hot-
test person you’ve ever known,
a Brad Pitt variety. The bad
guy crush feels slightly less
appropriate, but textbook
nevertheless. Historically, it’s a
James Dean (or vintage Johnny
Depp) type who smokes,
makes bad decisions and
tempts you to follow suit. The
latter has become problematic

delsohn, is streaming on Netflix.
with the rise of #MeToo, send-
ing us to pine for the kooky,
asexual comeback version of
Keanu Reeves.
But onscreen Mendelsohn
isn’t the one or the other. In-
stead, he’s like every ex-boy-
friend you’ve ever truly loved,
only to realize, eventually,
their deep, irreparable dam-
age. His blockbuster baddie
roles aside, Mendelsohn’s best
TV and film performances
have a sort of harmless sleazi-
ness to them, with a side of
humble, mumbly charm and
an irresistible lost-boy-in-a-
man’s-body quality. You’re
smitten, and also slightly wor-
ried about him. Intrigued, and
a little queasy. The first time
you felt that way was smoking
a gateway cigarette as a teen-
ager. You’ve quit because ev-
eryone has, but here’s another
chance to feel that rush.
A short trip to IMDb and
YouTube will tell you that
Mendelsohn has had his share
of boyish roles, both adorable
and clueless, in his early Aus-
tralian years. But it’s the fact
he hadn’t made it over to Hol-
lywood until reaching his
early 40s that adds to the
overall appeal. The ruffled,
unironed face and hair
couldn’t go better with his
glorious portfolio of lowlifes,
sidekicks, losers and question-
able types.
Critics say he makes a great
villain — he does — but prime
Mendelsohn is in the nuances

Grind” or “The Land of Steady

Habits,” a small Nicole Holof-
cener film you might have
missed on Netflix. Even “Un-
together,” an unbearably bor-
ing mishmash of love stories
and disappointments in L.A.,
directed by Mendelsohn’s
ex-wife Emma Forrest, manag-
es to bring out the lovable
wreck in him. One moment,
he’s staring at you with sad,
needy eyes, hiding a guilty
smile in the corner of his
mouth. The next, he appears
dangerously detached, selfish
or confused, or both.
And then, there’s the man
himself. Featuring a wild Aus-
tralian accent, and gesticulat-
ing just as wildly with his
huge hands during interviews,
Mendelsohn lacks the boring
composure and polish of sea-
soned Hollywood stars. His
jokes are off the cuff; his de-
meanor is neurotic and reck-
less. From a Jimmy Kimmel
interview to a GQ video, he
comes off as a real character,
someone who oftentimes vis-
ibly enjoys being the outsider,
the perpetual newcomer, the
guy with the Down Under
vibes.
Sometimes, he appears to be
sad or self-deprecating. He has
an Instagram profile with
11,000 followers and only nine
posts, and he once posted a
whole series of screenshots of
hip-hop tracks, only to delete
them a day later. Don’t ask me
how I know this.
These days, it’s hard to have
a celebrity crush without com-
plex connotations, but I think
I found one. Forget good or
bad guys, forget toxic mascu-
linity or proud male feminists.
Mendelsohn operates in a
different realm, one that
doesn’t abide by the greater
pop-culture conversation or by
the predictable, soullessly
chiseled standards of “Sexiest
Man Alive” lists. And, since
there’s no road map for crush-

persona, onscreen or off, by-

right in the heart. And it feels
almost real.
Under every YouTube clip,
under every mention of him
on Twitter, someone usually
comments about how un-
derrated he is, how he’s meant
for great things if someone
could only give him more
screen time. But a part of me
doesn’t want Mendelsohn to
become a megastar. Despite all
the big-budget credits and the
inevitable press tsunami com-
ing for “The King,” Mendel-

like a revelation. And if you

CALIFORNIA STREAMIN’
TV ‘Terminator’ too future for its own good
By Zaki Hasan
“Terminator: Dark Fate” is
in theaters this weekend,
prolonging yet again the life
span of the time-twisting
sci-fi saga about artificial
intelligence taking over hu-
manity, first begun by writer/
director James Cameron in
1984’s “The Terminator.” But
for as many qualitative highs
and lows as this brand has
enjoyed over the years, it
seems an appropriate moment
to pause and appreciate one
of the franchise’s most fasci-
nating forays — one whose
announcement was greeted
with a fair amount of skepti-
cism but ended up working a
lot better than many would
have expected.
Airing on Fox in 2008 and
2009, “Terminator: The Sarah
Connor Chronicles” was a
short-lived TV series pro-
duced by Warner Bros., put
into development following
the studio’s success releasing
the theatrical sequel “Termi-
nator 3: Rise of the Ma-
chines” in 2003. As developed
by writer Josh Friedman,
“The Sarah Connor Chron-
icles” took inspiration not
only from the Cameron “Ter-
minator” canon, but also the
2004 “Battlestar Galactica”
reboot in its explorations of
morality, identity and the
impending advance of artifi-
cial intelligence.
Initially set in 1999, two
years following the fiery con-
clusion of 1991’s “Terminator
2: Judgment Day,” “The Sarah
Connor Chronicles” has Lena
Headey (Cersei from “Game
of Thrones”) stepping into
Linda Hamilton’s iconic boots
as butt-kicking single mom
Sarah and also stars Thomas
Dekker (“Heroes”) as angsty
future messiah John Connor.
They’re both still on the run
from authorities for their
roles in orchestrating the

Brendan Hines and Lena Headey starred in “Terminator: The
Sarah Connor Chronicles,” which aired in 2008 and 2009.
third-act pyrotechnics in
“T2.”
Through the course of the
pilot, the pair are thrust for-
ward through one of those
pesky time portals into the
year 2007, where the rest of
the series remains. There,
aided by reprogrammed cy-
borg Cameron (Summer Glau,
her character named for you-
know-who), Sarah and John
try to prevent the impending
nuclear annihilation of the
human race (a.k.a. Judgment
Day), this time destined for
2011. Of course, there are also
plenty of bad-guy robots se-
creted in the past whose mis-
sion is to ensure the ma-
chines’ domination occurs,
setting up fertile terrain for
the show’s central conflict.
What followed over the
next two seasons and 31 epi-
sodes was an unfolding story
line hewing closely to the
tracks laid down by the first
two “Terminator” films that
also tried to expand what to
expect within the world Cam-
eron created. Further, the
pilot’s time jump offered the
creatives a perfect “in-conti-
nuity” reason to sidestep the
Mike Ansell / Fox
events of “Rise of the Ma-
chines” (including Sarah’s
death from cancer before the
movie begins, though that
diagnosis is incorporated into
the show’s narrative).
Without signature star
Arnold Schwarzenegger or a
blockbuster budget, the series
foregrounded a serialized,
long-form approach that put
its primary focus on the in-
ternal lives of the leads. Zack
Stentz, a writer and co-pro-
ducer on the series, heaps
praise on Friedman’s over-
arching vision, pointing out
how he recognized early on,
“There was no way that a TV
show, especially a TV show
with a Warner Bros. network
budget, was ever going to be
able to compete with the
‘Terminator’ movies on the
level of spectacle.”
Instead, Stenz continues,
“What we could do is lean
into TV strengths of telling
character stories and getting
to spend more time with
characters and getting to play
with ideas in a way that es-
pecially action filmmaking is
not as well-suited to.” This
approach benefited greatly
“Terminator: The Sarah Con-
nor Chronicles” can be pur-
chased for streaming on various
apps, including Amazon and
Apple TV.
from strong work by Headey,
Dekker and Glau in the leads,
as well as solid turns from
intriguing recurring and
guest actors like Brian Austin
Green (the “Beverly Hills
90210” alum is seriously great
as resistance fighter Derek
Reese, John’s uncle) and Gar-
bage singer Shirley Manson
as a Terminator-in-disguise
living in the past.
While the show trod a lot
of new and interesting
ground for the franchise on a
creative level, its short life is
also indicative that it may
have arrived at the wrong
moment in TV history, pre-
dating the ubiquity of stream-
ing services and shorter sea-
sons.
“I think there’s almost a
consensus that ‘Sarah Connor
Chronicles’ was a little bit too
ahead of its time,” Stentz
says. “We were essentially
doing this twisty, introspec-
tive, cable/streaming drama
on a broadcast network,
where it was always going to
be an uncomfortable fit.”
Powered by familiarity
with the “Terminator” name,
“The Sarah Connor Chron-
icles” was initially a ratings
powerhouse for Fox upon its
debut in January 2008. But
either because audiences were
expecting something bigger
and more bombastic, or due
to the expected pitfalls when
trying to retain interest in
serialized shows on network
TV, by the end of the second
season, viewership had fiz-
zled to the point that cancel-
lation was all but inevitable.
And so, “Judgment Day”
arrived prematurely for “The
Sarah Connor Chronicles”
23
when the final episode aired
in April of 2009 (mere weeks
before the fourth feature,
“Salvation,” which the TV
show had no connection to,
hit theaters and failed to
make much more of a mark).
Perhaps more frustrating
than the actual cancellation
was the series’ cliff-hanger
ending, likely to remain forev-
er unresolved. That said,
Friedman is part of the “writ-
er’s room” James Cameron
enlisted to help shape a new
trilogy beginning with “Dark
Fate,” so maybe some of
those lost ideas could see
expression in some form.
Nonetheless, even with its
unfinished story, the show
remains a fascinating digres-
sion in the “Terminator” can-
on, unfairly forgotten by
many, but also ripe for re-
discovery for the many ways
it redefined what to expect
from the brand while still
remaining tonally consistent
with the films at their best.
And with the new movie’s
marketing campaign built
around the return of Sarah to
the forefront as the emotional
center of the franchise, it’s
worth acknowledging that the
TV version got there a while
ago.
Reflecting on the legacy of
the short-lived series 10 years
after its untimely demise,
Stentz is forthright about its
place among the many pieces
of accrued “Terminator” my-
thology over the decades
through multiple media. “I
think it’s the most worthy
successor to those first two
movies, because it’s not trying
to be the first two movies. It’s
trying to be something kind
of weird and cerebral and
sometimes even slow-paced —
(but) still an exploration of
Jim Cameron’s universe.”

animated feature history. And for a
film that often seems to be working
off a checklist, it ends up being a
memorable time at the movies. PG.
100 minutes. — P. Hartlaub

Ad Astra Fantastically con-
ceived, brooding science-
fiction film has Brad Pitt

one of the best American directors

But what really sinks the animated

television series in which a car-
icatured Stepford wife turns every

Black and Blue Naomie
Harris (Moneypenny in the
Bond films) is an ex-soldier
and rookie New Orleans cop who is
caught in a war zone between bad
cops and bad drug dealers who want
her dead after she witnesses -- and
films -- an execution. No award-
winner, but a tension-filled piece of
genre filmmaking that’s irresistible. R.
108 minutes. — G.A. Johnson
L By the Grace of God The
latest from French director
N EXCELLENT
Francois Ozon deals with a
true story still playing out in France,
concerning three men coming for-
ward to reveal they were molested by
a Catholic priest. The movie won the
Grand Jury Prize at the Berlin Film
Festival this year and is an intelligent,
serious piece of work, but a little too
exhaustive to hold up for a full 137
minutes. Not rated. 137 minutes.
— M. LaSalle
N
The Cave Outstanding,
heartbreaking and perhaps
cautiously hopeful documen-
tary about a female doctor in charge
of a rag-tag hospital in war-torn Syria
that has relocated underground at
the end of a network of tunnels to
better escape bombardment. Direct-
ed by Feras Fayyad, an Oscar nomi-
nee for “The Last Men in Aleppo.”
PG-13. 95 minutes. — G.A. Johnson

day they wander, meander, argue and

dan Gleeson, Marisa Tomei and Greg

— G.A. Johnson
M Fire in Paradise The 40-
minute documentary, stream-
ing on Netflix, lends a wel-
come sense of perspective to the
devastating Camp Fire. A year re-
moved from their life-threatening
experiences, a first responder, his
wife and two children, a fire ranger,
two schoolteachers and a 911 call
center operator are among those
who speak of their experiences, the
decisions they made the first day as
the fire zone expanded at breakneck
pace and the moments that they
feared their lives were about to end.
TV-MA. 40 minutes. — G.A. Johnson
K Gemini Man Despite remark-
able technology (Will Smith
stars opposite a CGI version of
his younger self), this latest from
director Ang Lee fails to capitalize on
the possibilities of its set-up, in
which a cloned (younger) version of
an assassin is trying to kill his older
prototype. Just a lot of scenes of the
two Smiths shooting at each other,
and missing. PG-13. 117 minutes.
— M. LaSalle
M Harriet Director Kasi Lem-
mons, mixes in some fictional
elements into her biopic, but
it follows the broad outline of Harriet
Tubman’s story, the former slave
who became known as Moses, a
dreaded figure among the slave-
holding classes who led their slaves
out of bondage through the Un-
derground Railroad. At times, the film
is a little too romantic. Still, it’s
effective and, at times, moving, and
it has a major asset in star Cynthia
Erivo. PG-13. 125 minutes.
— M. LaSalle
M
Joker Though cynically made
and not exactly what the
country needs right now, this
is a strong film that provides a fun-
house mirror image of our times and
features Joaquin Phoenix in the most
scary portrayal of a violent maniac in
decades. R. 121 minutes. — M. LaSalle
M
Jojo Rabbit Taika Waititi
wrote and directed this bril-
liant, offbeat satire, about a
boy in the Hitler Youth who discovers
that his mother (Scarlett Johansson)
is harboring a Jewish girl behind the
walls of their house. Waititi plays the
boy’s imaginary friend, Adolf Hitler.

‘Horses’ expands view of the American West

By Adrienne Gaffney

“On Swift Horses,” Shan-

non Pufahl’s debut novel,
shows that there’s much more
to the Western experience
than we’ve been led to believe.
While it keeps alive the sense
of lawlessness and rugged
autonomy, it shows that the
genre is easily able to expand
to include the feminine and
queer perspective.
As the book opens, Muriel
and Lee are new transplants
to San Diego from Kansas
who wed upon Lee’s recent
return from the Korean War.
He served with his twin
brother, Julius, and when the
couple set out west, they be-
lieved he would join them.
Julius’ absence is a deep
wound felt by both Lee and
Muriel, who has a connection
with him that is radically
different and in ways more
profound than the one she
holds with her husband.
Muriel has been left reeling
by the death of her mother,
and her fascination with Juli-
us was a large factor in the
decision to accept Lee’s pro-
posal after her initial reluc-
tance. “Because she was or-
phaned and alone, but also
because of Julius, who had
made her feel that the world
was bigger than she had
imagined and because Lee, in
loving his brother, became
both more interesting and
more bracing. She knew her
mother would not approve
but her mother was not Shay O’Brien
around to say so.” Shannon Pufahl offers a different view of the American West through characters with secrets in “On Swift Horses.”
Muriel’s mother was a rene-
gade, unique in her town for
being both a divorcee and a a family. He wants to build a her days as a waitress at the pursuing a life in Las Vegas with the man he loves. His

evident. Pufahl paints her
characters with remarkable
compassion and decency.
Muriel and Julius are both
seeking a form of freedom
that comes up upon the
mores of the time, while Lee
struggles to understand
them. Her lyrical prose
depicts an American West
that is both desolate and
beautiful and inspires a
sense of individuality that
can apply to much more of
the human experience than
we’ve previously been led to
believe.

Retrace 1769 trek, fall in love with California
By Peter Fish
Seductive, destructive, and
hundreds of miles long, Cali-
fornia is made for ambitious
explorations that can be
turned into books.
You could see it by sea, the
way Harvard dropout Richard
Henry Dana did on the voyage
that became his 1840 best-
seller, “Two Years Before the
Mast.” On horseback, as in J.
Smeaton Chase’s charming
1913 memoir, “California Coast
Trails.” Or on foot, with
Cheryl Strayed hiking the
Pacific Crest Trail in “Wild.”
Writer Nick Neely says no
single odyssey shaped Califor-
nia as powerfully as did the
San Diego-to-San Francisco
trek made by Spanish explorer
Gaspar de Portolá in 1769.
Portolá and his 60-odd men
secured Alta California for
Spain, awarded place names —
Los Angeles, Santa Cruz —
and found sites for soon-to-be
established California mis-
sions.
“The Portolá expedition is
the seminal moment in Cali-
fornia’s history,” Neely writes
in “Alta California: From San
Diego to San Francisco, A
Journey on Foot to Rediscover
the Golden State.” “From this
long walk, the state that we
know and love today — or
sometimes love to begrudge —
unfolded.” Which is why Neely
landed at San Diego Interna-
tional Airport, ready to roll.
As you’d expect, retracing a
650-mile, 12-week, 18th century
hike through 21st century
California presents challenges.
The Portolá party had 3½ tons
of flour, a barrel of brandy and
mules. Neely has a backpack
and a Safeway Club Card.
Finding his first night’s
reserved campsite entails a
long walk along Interstate 5.
When he does reach Camp-
land on the Bay, the camp-
ground host is dumbfounded
he’s arrived on foot, not in an
RV.
This back-to-the-past con-
ceit could get old, but it
doesn’t. Neely is a skillful writ-
er, wry and watchful and adept
at the well-turned aphorism.
Of traveler’s melancholy, he
writes, “wonder is the antidote
and movement is the path to
it.”
“Alta California” is also rich
in little-known history, much
of it pulled from the journal of
Franciscan father Juan Crespi,
who accompanied Portolá.
“The entire camp turned into a

Diego to San Francisco, A

hospital,” Crespi notes on the
shore of San Diego Harbor, as
he watches Spanish soldiers
and sailors perish from scurvy.

Above Santa Barbara,
“the Southern

becomes lonelier,
suddenly longs to be
Northern.”
mountains, beaches: Neely hits
them all. Above Santa Barbara,
he notes, “the Southern Cali-
fornia coast becomes lonelier,
suddenly longs to be North-
ern.” In this realm, his book
becomes more lyrical and
expansive. He watches a rising
moon, “a great horned owl eye
slanted and austere, no pupil.”
He listens to “the washboard
laughter” of an acorn wood-
pecker.
Up the Santa Barbara and
San Luis Obispo County
coasts, then inland into the
Salinas Valley to Monterey
Bay. Somewhere along here,
the owl moons and wood-
peckers do something you
might not have thought pos-
sible in 2019: they make you
fall, or refall, in love with Cali-
fornia, ungrudgingly, wildfires
and insane housing prices and
all.
At book’s end, Neely’s fami-
ly joins him to climb Sweeney
Ridge above Pacifica, where
Portolá “discovered” (for Euro-
peans at least) San Francisco
Bay. Then it’s across the moun-
tains and down Sand Hill
Road to El Palo Alto, the aged
coast redwood the Portolá
party may have (or may not
have) camped beneath, a
proud, bedraggled totem from
the past in the land of Face-
book, Google and Palantir.
What a journey, you think.
What a state.
Peter Fish is a San Francisco
writer and editor, specializing in
California and the American
West.

Childhood as mom’s
sexual conspirator
By Anisse Gross
Adrienne Brodeur’s breath-
less memoir starts off with a
bang, when 14-year-old Bro-
deur is sleeping and awak-
ened suddenly by her moth-
er: “Sweetheart. Please. I
need you.”
At first, the reader thinks
something is terribly wrong.
Instead, her mother confesses
to having kissed her father’s
lifelong friend, and then im-
probably says, “I’m going to
need your help, sweetie. I
need to figure out how to do
this. How to make this pos-
sible.”
It is a shocking moment, a
horrific request of a child,
but to the young Brodeur it
comes as a calling full of
purpose, one that positions
her as an indispensable con-
spirator in her mother’s life.
From this point on, Brodeur’s
mother, Malabar, a figure as
distinct as her name, enlists
her daughter’s help in orches-
trating and covering for her
affair.
During the years when
Brodeur should have been
pursuing her own sexual
awakening, she instead serves
as her mother’s romantic
handmaiden. From wonder-
ing when the affair will fall
apart, to anticipating what
will become of a mother-
daughter bond built on a lie,
every single turn of this
memoir is gripping.
Malabar has an irresistible
charm, and it is easy to
imagine falling under her
spell. She takes center stage,
as an unparalleled beauty,
master chef and manipulator.
Brodeur’s descriptions of her
mother read like a paramour
waxing rhapsodic, the recol-
lections of someone in ines-
capable thrall.
Most of the book’s great
sensuality and best writing
arrive in recollections of the
copious food and cocktails
consumed. The book’s open-
ing dinner scene paints Mala-
bar’s future lover arriving
with a bag of bloody headless
birds. From there the carnage
and carnality continue at a
clip.
“Together, my mother and
Ben shucked oysters, plucked

ripped innards out of delicate
woodland creatures. Their
patter was filled with porno-
graphic double-entendres
about the game they roasted,
the savory loins, luscious
breasts, tender thighs. Their
every gesture seemed garishly
sensual; the way they slurped
clams from their shells,
gnawed on bones and sucked
out the marrow.”
As Brodeur continues to
keep her mother’s affair a
secret, there is another
shocking, but ultimately un-
surprising turn — Brodeur
ends up in a doomed mar-
riage with, of all the fish in
the sea, her mother’s lover’s
son, further proving she can-
not escape her mother’s web.
Malabar proves to be a
more powerful aphrodisiac
than any male paramour, and
it is only once all the players
have died — Malabar’s hus-
band, her lover and her lov-
er’s wife — that Brodeur and
her mother can reconcile
with the past. While the
entire book hinges on a
fiercely tight plot, it finally
slackens at the end in wel-
come relief when Brodeur
forges a new life for herself
in literature, in a new mar-
riage and as a mother. It is
in this last act of the book
where she realizes that “Mal-
abar was the only mother I

possess outsize power to both
cultivate and damage us, and
Brodeur shows that while the
relationship between a parent
and child is central, it need
not be the defining one.
Ultimately she cuts most of
the strings that tether her to
her mother, without casting
her out completely. In “Wild

that what defines our lives is
choosing just how bound we

THEATER
Ignorance allows
new experience
of Tagalog plays
I had a feeling there would
be jokes and references I
wouldn’t get at Tagalog 2019,
Bindlestiff Studio’s festival of
one-act plays performed in
Tagalog, which I don’t speak.
The Filipino American per-
forming arts company, now
celebrating its 30th year,
planned to project English
supertitles during the show,
but I was anticipating that
some concepts would defy
translation, and that my brain
might not always be able to
toggle quickly enough between
reading text and watching
performance.
What I didn’t count on was
missing a major plot point in
the first one-act, Rolin Cadallo
Obina’s “Mga Bata sa Selda 43”
(“The Kids in Cell 43”), which
takes a cosmic look at the cost
to children of Filipino Presi-
dent Rodrigo Duterte’s war on
drugs: the criminalization of
children, their orphaning upon
their parents’ killing by the
police, even the killing of chil-
dren themselves.
In the play, young brothers
Ino (Kathlyn Cabrera) and
Philip (Sunshine Roque) are in
a sort of prison that there’s only
one way out of, but I didn’t get
what it was. I found out later
and felt ashamed of myself for
failing to catch something so
central.
Here’s the thing, though. I
still got plenty out of the show. I
loved how Cadallo Obina cap-
tured the way kids can talk
about death in one breath and
then, with equal seriousness,
discuss Batman and Wonder
Woman in the next. I loved the
way the playwright parceled
out information about the
brothers’ backstory and kept

making their relationship more
complicated, all while giving
them present-tense problems
to work out: What is this place?
How do they get out of it? Is
their mom coming to save
them? What might be holding
her up?
But I also got something out
of my state of not knowing. It’s
OK to miss things. It’s OK to
not get what most of the rest of
the audience is getting out of a
work of theater. In fact, it can
be freeing to acknowledge your
ignorance.Then you kind of
lean into it, surrender to it and
chafe against it, all at the same
time.
Seeing a show in a language
you don’t speak can give you
permission to forge your own
experience of a show, on your
own terms. You awaken obser-
vational and analytical muscles
that might have lain dormant.
You get to glimpse, through a
small but very clear peephole, a
kind of theater and storytelling
and subject matter that doesn’t
make it onto most American
stages.
Where else besides Bindles-
tiff Studio might you see a slice-
of-life piece about the delivery
ward of a Filipino public hospi-
tal? Ma. Cecilia Culvera de la
Rosa’s “Labor Room,” based on
Russelle Anne (left), Faye Lacanilao, Nic Feliciano and Tina Shauf-Bajar perform a delivery
room scene in “Labor Room,” one of the single-act plays in Tagalog 2019 at Bindlestiff Studio.
the playwright’s own experi-
ence, depicts grace in chaos. In
this unit, multiple women
share a single bed. The women
who aren’t delivering at a given
moment become aides to the
ones who are. Superstition and
medical advice swirl together.
Politics and values clash — is it
right for Veh (Nix Guirre) to
attempt an abortion? But the
women’s bone-deep empathy
for one another’s plights hints
at a higher, universal power in
womanhood. There’s some-
thing we all share, the show
suggests, that transcends even
our core beliefs.
Seeing shows outside your
linguistic comfort zone sug-
gests the countless other theat-
rical cultures and structures
that are out there, thriving,
mostly outside the orbit of our
flagship institutions. It’s hum-
bling in the most salutary of
ways. It’s a bit like looking up at
one star and then trying to
fathom the whole Milky Way.
You feel small and large at the
same time — small for your
own limited sphere or experi-
ence, and large for being a part
of something bigger than you
can even imagine.
Attending Tagalog 2019
meant being acutely aware of
all my senses, and how they
can leap a little further than I
tend to think they can (even if
they still have limits). My ears
fished for clues — repeated
words, borrowings from Span-
ish and English, words charac-
ters got hung up on. (From
“Labor Room,” I now know
that it would be offensive to
address a female doctor as
“ate,” pronounced “a-tay,” or
“sister.”)
Then there was the ecstasy of
what for me were new sounds
— and not just overhearing a
quick strain on the street or the
bus or the radio, but being fully
submerged in a different regis-
ter of meaning. Tagalog, with
its preponderance of K and L
and N and Y and hard G
sounds, seems to crackle and
tingle and flicker, and the 11
performers across Tagalog
2019’s three one-acts frequently
riffed on a pitch in a way that,
to untrained ears, sounded like
the scat of a jazz vocalist.
And then there was that
which required little transla-
tion. “Ensayo,” or “Rehearsal,”
by Juan Ekis, about two older
adults taking an acting class for
the first time, is sketch comedy
par excellence. Tisha (Nic Feli-
ciano) and Peds (Bryan Palac)
Rob Suguitan / Bindlestiff Studio
are freaking out at the possibil-
ity of rehearsing, much less
performing, a kissing scene,
and director Joe Cascasan de-
fines with intelligence and
refinement what’s unique
about each new anxiety and
each new attempt at quashing
it. Feliciano, in particular, is a
talent to watch. She doesn’t just
deliver a put-down as if it’s a
smackdown; she does a victory
dance afterward that extends
the moment into a scene of its
own.
If you speak only one lan-
guage, you have only one way
of seeing, processing and artic-
ulating the world. To observe
theater performed in an unfa-
miliar language is to not just
know intellectually but feel
viscerally what it means to be
able to walk through the world
with a brain that can move on
at least two linguistic tracks.
It’s a more expansive way of
being. When you contemplate
seeing such theater, don’t think
about it as butting up against
your own ignorance. Think
about it as being given a gift.

Thompson’s series of comic

black femininity can look like, in a way
that’s still relevant in 2019. If it’s
overlong and its two actors don’t

Lorraine Hansberry Theatre’s produc-

black womanhood as a dance, as
laughing at yourself for dancing, as

play about a contemporary

You can make valid arguments
against Parks’ implausible premise, its
banal digressions, but you can’t argue
that the nightmare Berkeley Rep’s
production evokes isn’t real: Black
men can get hurt at random and at
will by the police, we attribute black
achievement to affirmative action
and white to merit, and it doesn’t
matter how good you try to be; racism
will infect you, too. Ends Sun., Nov. 10.

Dear abby By Jeanne Phillips
Man in love with ex is tempted to try again
Dear Abby: I have been di-
vorced for 26 years. I have been
engaged a couple of times
since, but never made it back
to the altar. My ex-wife has
now permanently separated
from her second husband. I
have helped her financially and
emotionally through a couple
of stressful situations in the
interim due to her second hus-
band.
I became available again my-
self about 18 months ago, so I
have been considering inviting
her to dinner to help her relax
and give her someone to talk to
other than family.
The problem is, she still
seems to regard me as “the
enemy.” She will speak to me,
but it’s just bare-bones conver-
sation.
I have never stopped loving
her. Should I ask her to dinner
or just let things be?

Whatever it was, because your
ex still seems to regard you
as “the enemy,” in spite of the
fact that you have helped her

don’t think what you have in

safer to love someone from a
distance, and this may be one
of them.

MIGRATION
INTRODUCTION

Welcome to
Migration
In the face of the
Kincade Fire, nearly
200,000 Northern
California residents
faced evacuations
during the week.
Another 2 million
were without power.
Almost overnight,
the Bay Area has
turned into a region
of refugees, scram-
bling for safety, for
shelter, for food, for
light, for explana-
tions.
Perhaps the heavi-
est thought is that
we will be subjected
to reruns of these
apocalyptic visions
every autumn — every
fire season. This is the
new normal.
In this week’s Food
+ Wine section, we
present a special
collection of stories
centered around the
theme of migration.
These are stories that
explore the human
connections to the
various definitions of
that theme, from the
Great Migration to
the global sprawl of
culinary cultures to
the universal migra-
tion of life to death.

Jiddo moved the family and

MIGRATION
Even death doesn’t end traditions
But as we move farther
from ‘home,’ we might
learn to let them bend
By Janelle Bitker
Twice a year, I get a text from my
mom, reminding me it’s time to visit
my grandparents.
We pile into a car and drive to Fre-
mont, balancing takeout containers of
whole yellow chicken and roasted
pork on our laps. My poh poh and
gung gung, as I called my grandma
and grandpa in Cantonese, get the best
— even when they’re dead.
Reverence for one’s ancestors is a hall-
mark of Chinese culture. Two holidays,
spring’s Qingming Festival and fall’s Cheung
Yeung Festival, see Chinese families gather
en masse in cemeteries all over the Bay Area
to honor the dead. The holidays are steeped
in ritual and tradition, and for good reason:
Dying is the greatest form of migration we’ll
ever embark on. It’s the ultimate passage
into the unknown.
We start by cleaning the tombstone, dis-
playing fresh flowers, chicken, pork, fruit,
candy and other offerings. We silently light
incense to summon our ancestors, pour
wine and tea on the grave in precise motions,
and burn pieces of gold paper that represent
wealth.
It wasn’t until I went to Hong Kong during
one of these festivals that I realized we were
totally doing it wrong.
There, we went to my great-grandfather’s
grave with seven aunts and uncles. Instead
of silence, they talked to my great grandfa-
ther out loud, as if he were alive and present.
Instead of burning pieces of gold paper, they
burned pictures of cell phones, laptops and
designer jeans. They lit incense for neigh-
boring ancestors all over the cemetery so
they could join the party, too.
More families emerged from minivans
with huge spreads of special-occasion dishes
like whole suckling pigs. They set out blan-
kets and picnicked on the graves of their
loved ones, gnawing on chicken bones and
lighting firecrackers in the ultimate form of
celebration.
I asked my mom about this in Hong Kong,
whether even she realized the extent of the
festivities in her hometown. She said no,
well, maybe. At this point, she has lived in
the U.S. longer than in Hong Kong. And
other than her buried parents, she has no
other Chinese family here to show her the
way. She does what she can.
So many immigrant stories demonstrate a
desire to preserve traditions, to carve out a
place that feels like home in an unfamiliar
land, often through food. Those are beautiful
stories. Over time, I’ve realized that is not my
family’s story.
On my mom’s side, my poh poh and gung
gung were Hakka people, an ethnic group
believed to have migrated through mainland
China from the hills of the north. But during
the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong, my

was one of the safest places for Jews at the
time. But then it was no longer safe. During
an attempt to flee to the U.S., he got stranded
in the Philippines, a prisoner of war who
became useful to the Japanese because he
spoke English, Japanese and Russian flu-
ently, along with some French, German and
Mandarin.
My grandpa met my grandma in North
Carolina. She was a classic Southern belle,
raised on a small farm in Georgia. Fresh food
was a way of life for her, so much so that
when the family moved to the Bay Area, it
pained her to make her favorite Southern
dishes. The produce just wasn’t the same
here.
As part of a typical nuclear family in the
’60s, my grandpa rarely cooked dinner. The
result was that my dad didn’t grow up with
Russian, Jewish, Japanese, Chinese or
Southern food at home. He remembers pi-
roshkis and beef Stroganoff from his grand-

parents, and when his dad did get in the
kitchen, he’d excitedly make a big bowl of
borscht. Those dishes didn’t make their way
to me, though.
When my dad’s parents died, I took home
some of their cookbooks, looking for more of
a connection to them. The earmarked reci-
pes could have been from any midcentury
American household: orange-minted peas,
baked onion casserole, “California tacos.”
I’m not doing much better. My shelves are
lined with cookbooks from around the
world. On any given night, I might be mak-
ing kimchi fried rice, Persian kukus or pasta
with whatever looked good at the farmers’
market that week.
The Chinese dishes I do cook on a regular
basis are not ones I grew up eating. They
don’t have Hong Kong or Hakka roots.
They’re just what I like.
It makes me wonder: What will I serve to
my kids? Will my mom’s food traditions
disappear after just one generation in the
U.S.? How many generations does it take to
become another culturally ambiguous
American family?
Is migration the death of traditions?
My parents secured a plot at the same
Fremont cemetery where my poh poh and
gung gung are buried. My mom hopes I
continue to visit twice a year, light incense
and offer whole chicken and roast pork
without her being alive to prompt me. I’m
not sure if I actually will.
I think it’s reasonable for my mom to tailor
these annual holidays to her modern lifestyle
— fitting, even. In a sense, these evolving
traditions represent her passage from her
old life in Hong Kong to this one.
Similarly, my various cultural roots are
not dead. My life would be unrecognizable to
many of my ancestors, so why should the
traditions stay the same? My family will
continue to create new ones. They’re not
wrong. They’re just different.

The story of Esther’s Orbit Room
Legendary jazz club
was once the throbbing
heart of West Oakland
By Justin Phillips
The retelling of West Oakland’s
rich jazz history by those who lived
it during the 1960s and 1970s is a
beautiful tapestry of innuendo, fic-
tion and untold truths.
Especially when it comes to Es-
ther’s Orbit Room.
For those who knew the place well, it
was an intimate neighborhood hangout
where locals grooved under a black ceiling
dotted with flecks of gold paint. They
sipped stiff drinks, like Bloody Marys so
full of vodka they were transparent. The
music was loud. The floor was sticky.
Sweating through an outfit while dancing
was a normal occurrence.
The stretch of Seventh Street between
Peralta and Market Street roared to life
following World War II, a time known for
the Great Migration, when federal spend-
ing gave rise to a prominent black middle
class in the Bay Area. Families found em-
ployment working at the local ports, docks
and railroads.
Oakland’s black population rose from
around 8,000 to more than 21,000 between
1940-1945. During that time, more than
5,000 black people also settled in Rich-
mond. Looking to connect with people
who looked like them, black workers con-
gregated in the same areas, creating
swaths of the East Bay that were abundant
in black culture.
By the end of the decade, Oakland was
home to about 15 jazz clubs. Many were on
Seventh Street, a neighborhood that be-
came known as the Harlem of the West.
Across the bay, San Francisco saw its
black population jump from fewer than
5,000 to more than 32,000 during the
Great Migration. With the influx of black
residents, San Francisco developed its own
thriving black community in the Fillmore.
It, too, was known as the Harlem of the
West and deservedly so. Black-owned
theaters, pool halls and restaurants dotted
the strip, giving the neighborhood a cul-
tural center for the city’s black populace.
Buzzy jazz spots like Bop City and the
Champagne Supper Club pulled in night
owls to the Fillmore. Billie Holiday per-
formed there, just like Charlie Parker and
John Coltrane. Maya Angelou even men-
tioned the neighborhood in “I Know Why
the Caged Bird Sings.”
But San Francisco’s black population
declined rapidly following the Great Mi-
gration while the populations in Oakland
and Richmond increased. Urban renewal
in San Francisco in the 1960s and 1970s
played a role in this outcome, a process
that ultimately shuttered more than 800
businesses, forced out nearly 5,000 house-
holds and demolished 2,500 Victorian
homes in a swath of the city with a histor-
ically black population.
As black folks fled the Fillmore, many
found solace in Oakland, increasing the
cultural vibrancy of the city. It may not
have had the prestige of the Fillmore, but
Seventh Street was a respectable Harlem
of the West, albeit lesser known than its
San Francisco counterpart.
Singers performed at bars in Oakland
without bodyguards or managers, recalled
singer Faye Carol. They would come in,
sing and interact with the public. Everyone
knew everyone else; people that Carol
listened to on the radio were sometimes
within arm’s reach, depending on the night
she was visiting or performing at the bar.
“We were playing the music we wanted
to play. You couldn’t just call it jazz or
blues or R&B because we were just singing
what we liked,” Carol said. “The young
people who went there respected the el-
ders in the music, too, because you knew
they had the juice. It was the place you
could go and learn and grow.”
And at the heart of it all was Esther’s
Orbit Room.
“Esther’s was a big deal for black art
back then,” said Carol, who first per-
formed there in the 1960s. “There wasn’t a
hell of a lot of places for us to perform
outside of our own communities. Esther’s
was a place that really was the black com-
munity’s own.”
* **
Esther Mabry, a Texas native, worked as
a waitress at the nearby Slim Jenkins Sup-
per Club before her namesake bar became
a reality. She saved tips and opened Es-
ther’s Breakfast Room in 1950. In 1959, she
bought the building with her husband,
William, where they offered live music and
cocktails.
For a little while, it remained a blue-

“Esther’s was a great place. And people
went there to eat and drink because of
Esther. Women didn’t have businesses like
she did and people just really liked being
around her,” said Johnny Tolbert, who
performed throughout Oakland during the
heyday.
In the years to come, Holiday, Al Green,
B.B. King, Tina Turner, Lou Rawls and
Etta James performed at Esther’s, accord-
ing to neighborhood lore. There’s even a
story — and a disputed photo — of Aretha
Franklin dancing and singing at the bar.
The photo, as with many things relating
to Esther’s, was only part of the story, one
which Tolbert knows well. He performed
with the Queen of Soul multiple times in
the 1960s and 1970s and remembers that
she preferred singing over her left shoul-
der, rather than her right, while sitting at a
piano. If you ask him about that Aretha
show at Esther’s, though, he says it never
happened.
But there were plenty of artists who did
perform there during a time when Seventh
Street was a 24-hour hub for black culture.
“When I hear the word Esther’s Orbit
Room, it reminds me of the roots of Oak-
land. It reminds me of the seeds that were
planted so long ago that gave Oakland and
the Bay Area its swagger, its groove, its
funky vibrations,” said Xavier Amin

The sign outside Esther’s, with its name
in bright red cursive letters alongside an
orange rocket, was removed in 2015.
The property that housed Esther’s Orbit
Room is little more than a dilapidated
building on a block that’s home to several
such buildings. White paint is fading from
the facade, as is much of the lettering on
the upper portions of the building. The
doors to the club have been locked, win-
dows are boarded up and sporadic works
of graffiti appear.
Next door, the Barn is shuttered, its
exterior in a similar state of disrepair.
Around the corner is State Market Liquor,
whose parking lot occupies a large portion
of the block. All the properties exist in the
shadows of passing BART trains.
Rumors have circulated about the future
of the Esther’s building. Earlier this year, a
real estate listing for the property garner-
ed attention, sparking discussion among
locals interested in purchasing it. Many
said they wanted to reopen the place and
return it to its past glory. But the nearly
decade-long closure has left the building in
disrepair and some have considered tear-
ing it down.
Esther’s old location remains listed for
sale — two buildings over three parcels of
land at 1722-1724 Seventh St. for $1.65 mil-
lion. A full restoration of the property
could cost millions, which is part of the
reason many say it remains vacant. But for
younger artists who weren’t alive for the
height of Esther’s fame, there remains
hope for its future.
“I hope it reopens and I’d love to be a
part of it. Oakland needs live music venues
that represent what the scene was,”
Dphrepaulezz said. “For a city of its size,
Oakland has an unrivaled cultural legacy
and we need to build on that.”
But Esther’s didn’t exist in a vacuum.
Tolbert said bringing Esther’s back alone
would not re-create the magic of the origi-
nal club. Decades ago, Esther’s captured
locals’ imagination due in large part to the
neighborhood foot traffic and buzzy ener-
gy the club received from nearby black-
owned businesses. Esther’s was Esther’s
because Slim Jenkins was Slim Jenkins,
Tolbert said.
“People like to romanticize the past, but
you can’t romanticize fantasy. It has to be
based in reality,” Tolbert said. “Esther’s
may not have been exactly what people
want to say and believe it was these days,
but I will say this: That place was special.
Nobody can deny that.”

he takes it. This is one year

that she won’t like Mexican
food. So, in her high school
cafeteria, where lunch trays
are passed out indiscriminate-
ly to students, then traded, my
mother dutifully trades away
any Mexican meals.
But one day, no one will
trade. She is stuck with a
plate of flautas. “When you’re
hungry, you’ll eat anything,”
my mother recalls. “I ate
them for survival. But when I
ate them, I liked it.”
Flautas lead to tacos, which
lead to tamales made by a
neighbor. She eats avocados
daily for a snack. She even
likes cheese, which is so for-
eign to Chinese cuisines that
there’s no real word for it. In
Cantonese, we just add a suffix
to the English word cheese.
We call it “cheese-zee.”

moves to Austin for college,
where she meets my father at
a party for Chinese students
who have gathered to cook
the foods they miss. They
marry in El Paso, throwing a
Chinese banquet reception at
one of the restaurants where
my grandparents are lifelong
customers, and they settle in
Houston.
Every summer of my child-
hood, we visited El Paso,
staying in the small house
connected to the rear of the
store where my grandparents
lived and raised their family.
We always made a pilgrimage
to my mother’s favorite Mex-
ican restaurant. With arched
walls and a tiled fountain, the
dining room resembled a
courtyard.
I loved the restaurant’s
menu, which seemed to an-
ticipate my inability to make
a decision by offering a gen-
erous combo plate with six
items: an enchilada, hard-
shell taco, tamale and chile
relleno with rice and refried
beans.
But the thing we most
anticipated was the basket of
sopapillas that arrived at the
L7
end of the meal. Pliable trian-
gles of fried dough puffed
with warm air, they were
served nearly naked with a
light dusting of sugar and a
squeeze bottle of honey. As
we ate our sopapillas, we’d
place a second order to go, to
bring back to our grand-
mother who was minding the
store.
It has been more than 20
years since I’ve visited El
Paso. Though it is not the city
where I grew up, I consider it
a home of sorts. It is a place
that my family comes from
among the various places
that we come from. I have
eaten other sopapillas in the
years since, but none have
come close to these golden
sopapillas of my memory.

MIGRATION
A visit to Alabama
proves a reckoning for
chef in the Bayview
By Nneka M. Okona
MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Though it is well into fall, the beaming sun and
sticky air of Alabama remain reminiscent of summer. It’s afternoon in Mont-
gomery, a quiet Sunday afternoon, hours past when most are trickling out of
church, and no line has formed outside of the Legacy Museum.
The only exception is a
small group of women
gathered outside the build-
ing, quietly conversing
underneath a Maya Ange-
lou quote splattered on the
backside of the museum’s
wall. The group consists of
Bay Area food entrepre-
neurs from La Cocina, who
have come to Montgomery
to learn about the city’s
history with an unflinching
honesty.
Tiffany Carter, a chef
from San Francisco’s Bay-
view neighborhood, is one
of those women.
Since Equal Justice Ini-
tiative opened the museum
in 2018, more than 400,000

tion dispersed through
artwork, interactive
screens, videos and short films on the
themes of slavery, segregation, mass in-
carceration and the racial terror that was
lynching — all exhibits with an unflinching
honesty, which moved Carter many times to
tears.
“Things haven’t changed much,” she
said, hours later. “It’s too close to home.”
Carter is a daughter of the South. She has
family in Mobile, Ala., and Lake Charles,
La., and has lived in Atlanta. But the Bay-
view neighborhood has been home for her
family for generations. “My grandparents
on both sides were able to come here and
work very hard to buy houses and build
businesses,” she said.
Her family’s story is one of hundreds of
thousands of stories about families that fled
the South for either fear of racial persecu-
tion or lack of job opportunities. The Great
Migration was one of the largest exoduses
of black people from the South to elsewhere
in the country, the first wave occurring in
the 1920s and the second in the 1940s.
Southerners left for new lives in Chicago,
Detroit and California.

Apricots, lemons and the
Valley of the Heart’s Delight
By Grace Hwang Lynch
I did a double take on my way into the farmers’ market. The small orange
fruit with blushing cheeks caught my eye.
“Are they Blenheims?” I asked, holding the golf ball of an apricot in my palm.
“No,” said the woman behind the table.
From the tone of her voice (not quite
snippy) it was clear she was tired of this
question. “The Blenheim is only one of
150 varieties of apricot,” she said and
proceeded to tell me the name of the
breed of hers, and how it was far better
than the hard, tasteless fruit found at
supermarkets. I popped a large sample
slice in my mouth as I politely nodded
and listened. The flesh was pleasant, but
not particularly sweet or juicy. It was not
what I was looking for.
In 1981, my family moved to San Jose,
situated in a valley one hour south of Ku
kim san, as Taiwanese called “Gold Moun-
tain” (San Francisco). After arriving in the
U.S. as graduate students and bouncing
around Midwestern towns where they
earned degrees, became citizens, and had
two children, my parents hoped to finally
find a place they could plant roots in
America. Back then, San Jose was not yet
Silicon Valley; it was still more commonly
known as the Santa Clara Valley.
True old-timers called it the Valley of
the Heart’s Delight, for how easily fruit
grew in the alluvial soil. “Heart’s delight”
hinted at something precious, something
that only the most starry-eyed idealists
would set their sights upon. I was put in
a fourth-grade class, where we studied
California history. We learned about the
padres who came from Spain and about
the covered wagon teams who came from
the east, and before that from places like
Ireland, France and Italy. I remember the

to culinary school to learn
both the cooking tech-
niques and the business
aspects of the food world.
She attended Le Cordon

food business was born.
She called it Boug Cali.
Since its inception, Cart-
er has held pop-ups in

most recently became one
of the inaugural food ven-
dors at the Warriors’ new
Chase Center. In early
2020, she will be one of the
featured restaurants in La

derloin food hall.
On her menu you’ll find
gumbo and burritos, all
with Creole touches, an
intentional decision to pay
homage to both her family’s
roots throughout the South and her own
upbringing in California. She admits, how-

family’s Southern history into her cooking,
she often has to fight expectations.

For Carter, the ultimate freedom is em-
bracing a “re-education” where more black

way that being migratory is a part of that
story — while venturing off into any culi-
nary directions they so choose.

mother’s backyard. Now, she’s cultivating a
tree that bears Meyer lemons, deep gold
and full of sweet juice thanks to their
genetics — a hybrid of lemon and manda-
rin orange. Like apricots, these lemons are
also originally from China. They are
named after Frank Meyer, a U.S. Depart-
ment of Agriculture employee who in the
early 1900s imported this dwarf citrus tree
to America. It seems ludicrous to trans-
port saplings from one continent and plant
them on another, assuming they will
thrive in foreign, unknown soil.
And yet Meyer lemons, and apricots,
are now quintessential California flavors.
My parents migrated across an ocean
and wandered around a new country for
over a decade. But when my husband and
I started a family, we bought a house
across town from my childhood home. We
planted a Meyer lemon sapling in our
backyard. The following spring, it went
through a growth spurt. Lanky new
branches reached for the sky. But these
arms were covered with menacing thorns,
inches long and oversize. Their acidic
shade of green reminded me of tomato
grubs. Still, no fruit.
Because Meyer lemons are delicate, the
variety almost died off in the 1940s. At the

Can a box from America
deliver a mother’s love?
By Yana Gilbuena
It was always a random day when I heard the delivery truck sputtering as it squeezed
into our cul-de-sac. The box wasn’t just any other brown paper package taped all
around — it came from America. It traveled far just to get to my island, trapping the
zeitgeist of its starting point and the unmistakable scent of America (“amoy tate”).
Someone had to be home 24/7 during the
two-week arrival window so we didn’t miss the
delivery. That wasn’t much of an issue since my
lola was always home. The problem was that I
also wanted to be there when the box came.
I wanted to be the first one to tear the brown
tape and inhale that American air, because even
for a brief moment, I would be sharing the
same air with my mother. These packages —
balikbayan boxes — were the only tangible
connection between us.
We have a complicated relationship. My
parents separated when I was born, and a year
later, my mom left for the U.S. to find work as a
nurse in order to give me the best possible
future. She was a single parent. I was left in the
care of my lola and tita, my mom’s younger
sibling. They became my parental stand-ins.
Looking back now, this was a snapshot of the
destruction of the Filipino family. My situation
was not special; it was one of many.
My mom was one of the thousands of Filipi-
no nurses who came to the U.S. during the
1980s. With that came the influx of balikbayan
boxes back into the Philippines, full of Amer-
ican treasures like candy, canned foods and
toiletries. These boxes were a new addition to
our ever-evolving cultural norms, a modern
take on the pasalubong, a gift you bring back to
family and friends from travels.
In the Philippines, brain drain was a real
thing: There was no decent work to be had,
even in the big city of Manila. Anyone with a
college education would leave for the greener
pastures of first world countries as nurses or
other white-collar professionals; those less
fortunate found work as domestic workers for
rich families in the Middle East and Asia.
This was not new. We’ve been exporting our

time, a root rot was threatening to destroy
California’s entire citrus industry. The
disease was caused by a virus that was
spread by aphids. Many citrus x meyeri
trees were found to be carriers of the vi-

valuable cash crops, nurseries decided to
destroy their entire stock of the orna-
mental variety. In more recent decades,
nurseries have grafted healthy Meyer cut-
tings onto the trunks of hardier species
which bear ugly, inedible fruit but can
protect themselves with tough thorns —
the switchblades of the plant kingdom. In
some cases, the rootstock is so hardy that
it depletes the grafted branches of nutri-
ents. Or in my case, an untrained gardener
mistakenly prunes off the branches that

was uprooted. In my mom’s eyes, there is still
no future in the Philippines, so when I com-
pleted my degree (in psychology, not the rec-
ommended medicine or law), she brought me
here. I struggled to assimilate, get a job, find a
support system. I missed my home, my life and
my lola. I would buy the 99-cent scratch phone
cards, just talk to her for five minutes. In those
conversations, I would just cry. I really wanted
to go home, but financially I was unable to. It
took a car crash, another degree, multiple
career changes, failed relationships and a span
of 15 years for me to settle into a life.
I am now part of the brain drain, living and
working in the U.S., though the obligation to
send balikbayan boxes back home was not
passed on to me. As magical as it was for me
back then, looking back and mentally un-
packing these boxes has me unpacking my
own colonial mentality. We were all told to buy
into the American Dream. Life is going to be
better, they said, but they didn’t tell you what
you needed to give up to pursue this.
I missed my own lola’s funeral. That was my
price. I had just moved to New York and
couldn’t borrow money, even from my own
mother. She said I needed to learn my lesson. If
I had just been a nurse or a doctor, I wouldn’t
be in this position. Tough love.
The term “balikbayan” is quite ironic. It
means “return to home.” I see the tough deci-
sion my mom made 36 years ago. I’ve heard her
stories of how hard it was to leave me. I get the
bigger picture now that I am here in those
greener pastures. I am very grateful for the
opportunity given to me. I’ve seen so many of
my peers struggle and do what my mom did
decades ago.
But is our quality of life any better? Is our
relationship any better? Family was traded for
dollars. Balikbayan boxes for the actual person.
I don’t have the answers, nor am I in any posi-
tion to dictate how others should keep in touch
with their family. But in my experience, being
present is better than the hollow shell of a
person pieced together by the contents of a box.
My mom still sends boxes home. Habit, I
suppose. I’ve wondered if she ever thought I
could feel her love through the clothes that
once grazed her skin and were now hugging
mine. Nothing in the box could ever replace the
physical presence of my mother that I sorely
longed for. Not the clearance chocolates, not the
dollar Spam, not the bars of Irish Spring. I’d
rather do without any of those, just to see her
face, even for just that short window of delivery
time.

immigrants in the valley in her book “Chi-
natown San Jose, USA”: In 1880, San Jose
had nearly 2,700 residents, many of whom
worked in the local orchards. Just two
years later, Congress passed the Chinese
Exclusion Act, banning most immigration
from Asia. Many rural Chinese settlements
were burned to the ground. In 1930, San
Jose’s last Chinatown was razed to make
way for a city maintenance facility. Other
waves of migrants — Japanese, Filipino,
Mexican — also tended to the fruit trees.
Judging by its great height and the old
Victorian in front of it, the walnut tree
could well be a holdover from the early
orchard days.
“Hmm,” my neighbor evaluated the
position. “Quite shady.” The established
roots of the bigger tree may have turned
the soil too acidic, she theorized. I had
planted the lemon sapling in a corner, up
against another neighbor’s garage and
overshadowed by the ancient tree — not
ideal. Citrus needs lots of sun and heat.
But we didn’t know that when we planted
it. We simply went to the nursery, bought
it, and plopped it into the empty spot in
the ground.
I stopped checking on my Meyer lemon
tree. For the next few years, we debated
tearing it out. After being transplanted,
these saplings can go into a state of shock,
which can last for seasons. “Let’s wait a
while,” I argued. As our weekends filled
with Little League and birthday parties,
the yard fell into a state of benign neglect.
One January morning, I went out to the
backyard and something caught my eye. A
single yellow lemon had grown and rip-
ened when I wasn’t looking. The rootstock
hadn’t taken over after all. I twisted the
fruit off its stem, cradling it in my hands.
The next year, half a dozen fruits ap-
peared. I started saving egg shells, raking
aside the blanket of fallen walnut leaves
and crumbing the shells into the soil.

MIGRATION
Migration can mean many things, as explored in this section.
But for this profile, I wanted to explore a more intimate (and yet
public) aspect of the word: what it means for a restaurant. A place
of transition, where people arrive to have a communal or solitary
experience. What does migration mean in the context of the food
that is grown, prepared and served, or for the local and interna-
tional people who pass through the doors every day? I spoke with
On his role
“Technically, I am the
maitre d’ at the Progress.
That position varies from
house to house, depending
upon the values of the house
and the resources of the
house. What one tries to do
in that position is to manage
and manicure everyone’s
experience, to give them an
individual experience. And
one that is fantastic for
them, and therefore great for
the house. There are several
things that I have to do. One
is the tempo — it’s basically
to make sure everyone gets
to the table and begins their
experience and then moves
out of the table so we can get
the next group of people
doing the same thing. That’s
the very practical aspect of
it, which is difficult and
challenging and not fun, but
necessary.”
Creating a queue
“In the bar and lounge, we
really try to manage how we
get people sat. So instead of
just people coming in and
just free-for-all — you know,
take whatever seat you want
— we make a queue. And it’s
not a written queue. I know
who those people are, and
who gets to go next, and
who’s kinda going to go
where. And so I talk to
them, I let them know what
to expect, I put them in the
queue, we get service started
for them, and then we get
them sat. And that actually
turns out really rewarding
to people, because even
when they’re waiting, they
know that I have them in
line and that I am looking
for a place for them and that
there is an order, and you’re
going to be taken care of.
And people feel surprisingly
good about that.”
On the meaning of
migration
“So, thinking about that,
you have the migration of
people and their experiences.
And you know, people go to
restaurants for all sorts of
reasons. They go to celebrate.
They go to commiserate. They
go because they’re hungry.
They go because they’re dat-
ing and they’re trying to im-
press people. But you’re sup-
posed to leave better than you

it’s our job to remind you of
something, help you recon-
nect with something, whether
it’s the food or the person that
you’re with. That’s really the
job. We have to be set up in
order to do that job, and in
order for a house to be a good
house, they also have to have
good guests (chuckles). You
know? All of those things are
necessary.”
maitre d’ Sebastian Craig of the Progress in San Francisco (1525
Fillmore St.). Craig’s role at the restaurant is one of almost military
precision. He has to be aware of everyone on the floor, staff and
customers, where they are seated, what they’re consuming and
whether they are satisfied or displeased. I thought his perspective
would add to the subject of migration — and what he had to say
was fascinating.
On the migration
of food
“The migration of food is
a relevant issue because now
the whole issue is farm-to-
table. What migrates with
that isn’t just the hard-work-
ing farmers who literally put
food on the table for chefs to
transform into something
else. But there’s also the
migration of marketing and
branding that has gone
along with that. So, in the
last 20 years with the ascen-
dance of the celebrity chef
and television, all of these
things have become, to some
degree, marketing terms.
You know ‘farm-to-table,’
even ‘organic’ and ‘biody-
namic.’ People don’t know
what they are, but they have
a gloss, a status to them, that
transcends the actual mean-
ing. And all of those things
are kind of dissonant ener-
gy, that kind of get in the
way of really, I think, con-
necting.”
On managing
expectations
“Expectations are really
everything. If you have
proper, open expectations,
then people can be ready to
have a good time in your
restaurant. You need to give
them the information that
they need to hear, maybe a
couple of times, to loosen
them up so they can be
ready to have a good time
within your context. And
listen, the team that owns
the restaurant has done
everyone who works there
an invaluable service in
making the place beautiful.
That arrests the guests
when they come in, and
makes it easier for us be-
cause they’re looking
around going ‘Wow, it’s
beautiful.’ And then I’m like
‘Yeah, this is a new place, it’s
a different place, it’s a beau-
tiful place, and now let us
tell you what to expect.’ And
they’re ready for that then.”
On restaurants as
global conduits
“Restaurants of San Fran-
cisco are the (global) ambas-
sadors of California. This is
where people come to learn
about what’s growing in
Napa, what’s growing in
Santa Cruz, what’s growing
in Sonoma. They come here
to learn about how we think.
One of the most delightful
and challenging things for
me is that, you know, when
we look at the book every
night, there are names from
all over the world. Because
part of what I like to do to
help make a guest feel better
is actually get their name
right. You know, ‘Oh, that’s a
Gaelic name, isn’t it? That’s a
Sri Lankan name, isn’t it?
Oh, you must be from Hol-
land.’ But that delights
them, that opens them up to
be recognized. That is the
theme that we’re trying to
get across at every moment:
I care about you.”

This renovated, contemporary Sausalito estate offers
breathtaking views and luxurious living
L
ocated in the heart of the “Banana Belt”, a highly coveted pocket in the Sausalito
hills known for its warm, Mediterranean-like weather, 94 San Carlos Avenue is
a rare offering. The four-bedroom, three-bathroom, 3,250± sq. ft. residence has
been thoughtfully renovated and rebuilt to meet the standards of the California Green
Building Code. The extensive renovation took the home down to its studs and trans-
formed what was a historic, Tudor-style home into a contemporary estate designed for
luxury modern living—with a façade that hints at the home’s past but is firmly set in the
present.
Situated on a 9,000± sq. ft. lot, with an expansive, rolling lawn and gardens—including
an edible garden—the gracious residence features three levels of light-filled living space
and a private entrance lower level suite. The home has been thoughtfully and elegantly
designed for comfortable family living and effortless entertaining, with an open floor
plan, designer lighting, and beautiful, on-trend, luxury finishes throughout. The bright,
airy interiors have a strong indoor-outdoor connection and are flooded with natural light
and spectacular views of the surroundings.
Upon entry, the first floor opens to a spacious, open kitchen-dining area with an adja-
cent formal living room. White gallery walls, and chic, dark hardwood floors comple-
ment the gourmet chef ’s kitchen which boasts high-end appliances including a Sub-Zero
refrigerator, a Bosch five-burner gas cooktop, and a Bosch oven. The formal dining room
opens to a tranquil garden for easy indoor-outdoor entertaining, while the formal living
room features a gas fireplace and a viewing terrace to enjoy the breathtaking views of
Richardson Bay and Belvedere Island.
The second level of the home features two spacious bedrooms, each with its own ensuite
bathroom complete with views of San Francisco Skyline, Bay Bridge, Alcatraz, and
M3
Richardson Bay. The second floor also has a sitting room, known as the “Sausalito View
Salon” for its breathtaking views of Richardson Bay and the Sausalito waterfront. The
third level boasts a “pent room” (or fourth bedroom) with iconic panoramic views of
San Francisco, Angel Island, Belvedere, and Richardson Bay. Additionally, the private
entrance, lower level suite has a full bedroom with en-suite bath, a yoga room with an
infrared sauna, laundry area, and a wet bar with a direct access to the rose garden. Other
highlights include a cedar finished, wood-paneled, two-car garage with an electric car
charger (two additional cars can park on the pad outside the garage), NEST thermostats
on each level, a private gym or studio, and ample storage space.
Centrally located, 94 San Carlos Avenue is also walking distance to downtown Sausalito,
where world-class restaurants, shopping, and endless leisure activities await. You can bike
the Bay Trail, hike the Marin Headlands, kayak, sail, or take the ferry to San Francisco
and Angel Island.
San Francisco is only minutes across the Golden Gate Bridge—but you’ll feel worlds
away from the hustle of urban life in the bucolic seaside town of Sausalito. Visit
www.94sancarlos.com for all the details.

Housing market needs much more than a rate cut

By Ben Casselman
TH E N EW YO R K T I M E S C O M PA N Y
The Federal Reserve is hop-
ing that its latest interest-rate
cut will help keep the economy
safely at cruising altitude. But
don’t expect it to provide much
of a lift to the housing market.
Housing is one of the path-
ways by which Fed policy
produces results. When the
central bank cuts interest rates,
it encourages people to buy
houses (since mortgages are
cheaper) and builders to ramp
up construction (since demand
is strong and borrowing is
easier). Those decisions then
ripple through the economy, as
people buy furniture, builders
hire workers and brokers cash
their commission checks.
But housing isn’t the engine
it once was. The sector is a
smaller part of the economy
than before the financial crisis,
and a smaller share of Amer-
icans are homeowners. And
with rates already low, it isn’t
clear that a further cut by the
Fed will do much for housing
— if it lowers mortgage rates at
all.
Interest rates still matter for
housing. The Fed’s first two
rate cuts this year helped stabi-
lize the housing market, which
had been heading for a major
slump. On Wednesday, the
Commerce Department said
that construction added to
gross domestic product in the
third quarter after six quarters
of contraction. And lower rates
could give another jolt to a
refinancing boom that has
injected billions of dollars into
the economy in recent months.
But few economists expect
the housing market to take off
in response to this week’s rate
cut, because rates aren’t what
was holding back housing in
the first place. Instead, they
point to other factors.
It’s hard to get a loan
Interest rates don’t matter if
no one will give you a loan in
the first place. And a lot of
would-be buyers are in that
situation.
After the housing bubble
burst over a decade ago, banks
and other financial institutions
became far more cautious in
their lending, partly because of
new federal rules meant to
discourage risky loans. No one
wants a return of the bubble-
era “liar loans,” for which
borrowers were allowed to
state their income without
verification. But some argue
that the pendulum has swung
too far the other way.
The typical homebuyer
today has a FICO credit score
of 741, compared with 700
before the housing crisis, ac-
cording to data from the Ur-
ban Institute. Hardly any buy-
ers have a score below 650.
Other measures of affordabili-
ty likewise show that lending
standards have loosened a bit
in recent years but remain
tighter than in the early 2000s,
before the subprime lending
boom.
Glenn Kelman, chief exec-
utive of the online brokerage
Redfin, said the combination
of low interest rates and tight
lending standards was exacer-
bating existing economic di-
vides.
“Right now, money’s really
cheap, but you have to have a
good credit score to be able to
access it,” he said. “It’s been a
bonanza for one group of peo-
ple, the people who have al-
ways been able to get credit.”
It’s hard to find a house to
buy
Housing prices have risen
faster than wages in much of
the country in recent years.
And many cities, particularly
on the coasts, are in the midst
of a full-blown affordability
crisis. In cities like San Fran-
cisco, Seattle and Boston, the
median price of a home listed
for sale is well more than half
a million dollars, according to
the real estate site Zillow, and
even starter homes can top
$300,000 — if there are any
available.
At those prices, a modest dip
in interest rates will hardly
make a difference, said Susan
M. Wachter, a professor of real
estate at the University of
Pennsylvania.
“This interest-rate decline
will not do it — it will not turn
these potential owners into
buyers,” she said. “Lower in-
terest-rate costs are not effec-
tively overcoming these afford-
ability barriers.”

A peaceful retreat from the busy Bay Area

B
ay Area residents may be
habituated to the gridlock
traffic that often crowds
our city streets and freeways.
We’ve learned to plan for transit
time at the beginning and end of
each workday, which merely
makes those workdays longer,
and we’re able to spend less
time at rest and with our families
and friends.
Even weekend escapes re-
quire thoughtful calculation, for
example, when it already takes
multiple hours to drive to a beau-
tiful water-centric destination like
Lake Tahoe. Leave work early
and risk standing out in the
wrong way to your boss? Leave
late at night to avoid the traffic
and struggle to stay awake on
the road, or feel as if you’ve
already missed out on valuable
chill time?
Getting a second home near
the water is a dream for many. All
week long, the anticipation of
having an escape where you can
unwind, take it easy, and leave
your shoes by the door for when
you have to drive back home, is
enough to carry you through a
busy week. Having the clock stop
for even two days a week adds
Delta Coves continues on N5

PART I

A FLASH OF GOLD
One late night five years ago, fisherman Giuseppe Pennisi was lying in
bed with his laptop propped up on his barrel chest, reviewing video footage
captured from his 76­foot boat, the Pioneer. The boat is a bottom trawler. It
scoops up fish with a net that bounces across the seafloor at depths of more
than 4,000 feet. A tinkerer, Pennisi likes to keep GoPro cameras attached to
the net, allowing him to study the footage and improve his technique. That
night, around 2 a.m., he noticed his camera slide past something unusual.

Along the murky seafloor, fish and
rocks come in rounded shapes and
soft colors, muted grays and greens.
His eyes were attuned to this drab
underwater landscape, which is why
he had been puzzled by brief flashes of
light on the video screen, shiny surfac­
es glimmering by. Then he saw it: a
rectangular object, sharp­edged and
pale, almost white, with a tinge of
yellow.
It was September 2014, and Pennisi,
who goes by Joe, was 50 years old,
with four decades of fishing behind
him. He had sailed on commercial
boats since he was 7; his father and
grandfather had towed their nets in
the same waters for more than a cen­
tury. He had never seen anything like
the object in the video. Still, Joe sensed
immediately what it might be. His net
often got caught on the rotting un­
derwater husks of old ships wrecked
just beyond the Golden Gate, and he
knew that some of those ships —
Spanish galleons, Gold Rush­era
steamers — had carried treasure.
He rewound the video, peered for­
ward and froze the frame with the
yellow rectangular object. It looked for
all the world like a gold bar, an ingot.
For a few minutes, he stared at it
while his wife, Grazia, slept beside
him.
Then he started to scream.
Joe, Grazia and their six children
shared a beige stucco house in Castro­
ville, north of Monterey. At the time,
he kept his boat at the Moss Landing
harbor 10 minutes away; later he
would shift the boat to Fisherman’s
Wharf in San Francisco. He liked
living in Castroville because his back­
yard was spacious enough to accom­
modate old trawling gear and a rusty
crane for construction projects. But
the house felt cramped, with only
three bedrooms for eight people. Gra­
zia handled most of the kid duties
because Joe spent so much time work­
ing, and unlike her husband, who had
become semi­nocturnal after years of
fishing through the night, she main­
tained a normal schedule.
“I gotta get the kids up for school,”
Grazia said, stirring on her side of the
bed. “What is it?”
He played the video for her.
“I think it’s gold,” he said.
She squinted at the yellow rectan­
gular object.
“How do you know what it is?” she
asked, then rolled over. “Go back to
sleep.”
A REALLY BIG SECRET
Joe tried to imagine what it would
feel like to hold a gold bar. How heavy
would it be? How smooth?
In his bed in Castroville, he went
back to the beginning of the video and
looked for the flashes he had noticed
earlier. That’s when he really started
to freak out, because the rectangular
object — whatever it might be —
wasn’t the only one.
The GoPro had captured hours of
video on its memory card, in 12 clips
lasting 18 minutes each. Over the next
few days, Joe watched the video over
and over, first on his laptop and then
on a large television screen. All in all,
he ended up counting more than 50
glints of yellow, and of those, about 30
seemed to have rectangular shapes
and straight edges consistent with the
contours of gold ingots. They were
spread across a quarter mile within
the Monterey Bay National Marine
Sanctuary. A vast swath of federally
protected water off the California
coast, the sanctuary covers 6,094
square miles, stretching from Marin
County south to San Luis Obispo
County and extending 30 miles off­
shore, on average. Joe plies his trade
there along with thousands of ama­
teur and professional fishers, pulling
his net back and forth across the bot­
tom of the Pacific.
He had no idea how much one bar
of gold might be worth. Half a million
dollars per bar? A million?
How much for 30 of them?
He began thinking: What would he
do with that kind of money? Buy a
bigger house, obviously. Retire in a
few years instead of fishing until the
day he died. But in the weeks that
followed, as he thought more about
what he’d seen on the ocean floor, his
excitement turned to anxiety, then
dread.
The shiny objects were in very deep
water, more than 1,000 feet down.
Having done some diving in the
course of his career, he knew that was
well beyond the reach of typical diving
gear. Probably only professional di­
vers with special equipment or robotic
vehicles could access that depth.
But that wasn’t the only problem.
Because the objects lay within the
Monterey Bay sanctuary, the federal
government would probably be a
hurdle. Commercial fishermen like Joe
must follow strict rules that dictate
where they’re allowed to fish and
what they’re allowed to catch. Govern­
ment officials track their boats with
transponder signals and onboard
observers.
A question began to eat at Joe:
What if he couldn’t actually lay his
hands on whatever was down there?
What if he had made the discovery of
a lifetime but could never bring it to
the surface?
“There is an expression in treasure
hunting: Treasure is trouble,” said
John Chatterton, a renowned diver
who has explored the wreck of the
Titanic and co­discovered a lost Ger­
man U­boat off the coast of New Jer­
sey. “The more treasure, the more
trouble.”
Joe was about to learn this for him­
self. It was the biggest secret he had
ever needed to keep. So big that he

Giuseppe “Joe” Pennisi, at left on his boat, the Pioneer, caught a gold flash on the seafloor five years ago with a camera on his
trawling net. Joe thought it was a gold bar that could change everything for him and his wife, Grazia, above at their Chico home.

was tempted to just blurt it out. So big it could
put his family in danger. And it felt like desti­
ny. He’d come to know it only because of the
particular way he fished, the same way his
father had, and his grandfather — trawling the
ocean floor.
He had spent his life on the water, yet when
it came to treasure, he was a rank amateur.
But he knew something the experts didn’t.
Joe knew, within a tiny circle of the Pacific,
where a treasure might be.
DRAGGERS
Joe is a large guy, 6 feet tall and paunchy,
with a bushy black mustache and an upper
body made stocky by a life spent handling
huge bins of fish. On a recent morning, he sat
in the captain’s chair of the Pioneer, a padded
blue seat salvaged from an old van. A ball cap
hung low over his eyes. He sipped a mug of
thick coffee brewed by his deck boss, Joleen
Lambert Skinner, his most trusted colleague
and friend.
The boat that day was about 24 miles west
of Half Moon Bay, in the open Pacific. In front
of him, through the large wraparound win­
dows of the wheelhouse, all he could see were
tall blue waves and gulls and nothing else.
Taped to one of the windows was a small
photo of his late father, beneath a printed
verse from Corinthians:
That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of
men, but in the power of God.
GIUSEPPE PENNISI
NOVEMBER 10, 1938—DECEMBER 24, 2013
It was the first leg of a two­day fishing trip.
Depending on the weather and the seasons,
Joe typically makes this journey every other
week, spending several days preparing the
boat, then sailing early Thursday morning and
returning to shore late Friday, at which point
he and his crew stay up all night unloading
tens of thousands of pounds of fish. Start to
finish, the process takes 8½ days. During that
period, Joe runs on four hours of daily sleep.
Overnight, here in the Pacific, while every­
one else on the boat was asleep, Joe had pilot­
ed the Pioneer to his favorite fishing grounds
off the San Mateo coast. Now he was waiting
for the right moment to lower the net, staring
at a large screen connected to a sonar machine
that pinpoints schools of fish underwater.
Joe specializes in catching California
groundfish, a class that includes about 90
deepwater varieties. Once a mainstay on Bay
Area menus, the population of many types of
groundfish collapsed in the late 1990s and
rebounded only recently, which is why you
don’t often see them at su­
permarket seafood counters:

expression in
the boat’s loudspeaker, ringing a bell to in­
dicate it was time to bring in the net. About 20
minutes later, it bobbed to the surface about
1,800 feet behind the boat. The net had
changed from yellow to flamingo pink, and as
it drew closer, the reason became obvious: It
was full of bright pink rockfish, their heads
stuck through the holes in the net’s web like
ghoulish beads.
Using the winch, Joleen and the deckhand
raised the open end of the net above the boat
and released the fish onto the deck like a truck
pouring cement. Once the pouring stopped,
the fish kept moving, flapping in a pitiful
break dance. Their bodies twisted from the
change in pressure, which caused the eyes of
the pink rockfish to bulge out of their sockets
and their necks to distend, revealing tender
blood­red gills that gasped for breath.
“It’s a nice little mix,” Joe said. He waded
through the pile, reaching up to shake out the
fish still stuck in the mesh. His jeans and
cowboy boots became speckled with silver
scales.
This method of fishing is known as bottom
trawling, or dragging. Traditionally, a trawling
fisherman lowers his net to the bottom, then
sails back and forth in straight lines, a mile or
two at a time, almost as if he were mowing the
ocean floor. Though Joe fishes in a more sus­
tainable way, the fundamentals haven’t
changed much since his Sicilian ancestors
began fishing off the California coast a century
ago, starting with his grandfather, a taciturn
man named Giovanni.
After immigrating to San Francisco in the
early 1900s, Giovanni saved enough to buy his
own fishing boat, then resettled his family in
Monterey. That’s where Joe’s father, Giuseppe
Sr., grew up, and also Joe.
One of eight siblings in a crowded three­
bedroom house with busted plumbing, Joe
started to learn about trawling when he was
just 7, when his father and grandfather
brought him on fishing voyages aboard their
boat, the San Giovanni I. As a young boy, Joe
developed a fear of the ocean that would stay
with him through adulthood. He saw how the
net could get stuck and jar the boat backward,
how cables and weights that rattled loose
could easily knock him into the sea. He and boat in Gloucester, Mass., and bring it back to
his brother always had to wear balsa­stuffed Monterey. From New England, they voyaged
life jackets, which doubled as pillows on over­ south, through the Panama Canal and back to
night fishing trips. California — a six­week journey.
Giuseppe Sr. was abusive. He’d left school in Although Grazia spent the first week vom­
seventh grade to devote himself to fishing, a iting from seasickness, she found Joe charm­

ing that the fish had clustered
near the ocean floor, like junior
high kids finding their home­

got on the loudspeaker and told the crew it
was time.
Joleen was out on the deck. A tall, physical­
ly powerful woman who wears her graying
blond hair in a braid and puts whiskey in her
coffee, she asked deckhand Joe Drummond, a
wiry man in cargo shorts, to lower the net.
Joleen is the Pioneer’s second­in­command, in
charge of scheduling the boat’s voyages and
keeping the crew in line. The deckhand un­
hooked two rusty trawl doors from the sides
of the boat and let them drop in the water, and
Joleen stood by as metal cables unspooled,
clattering as loudly as the diesel engine that
rumbled below deck.
Next, they dropped the yellow nylon net. It
took 15 minutes to unfurl, pooling out behind
the boat before finally sinking.
“Let’s go fishing!” Joleen yelled.
Joe sped up the boat, allowing the net to
settle to the seafloor hundreds of feet below.

albatross flew by, its wide wingspan and dark
feathers distinguishing it from the gulls. As he

hours, he spotted a gray porpoise with white
racing stripes playfully cross the ship’s path,
grinning and pointing to it as if he were show­
ing his kids the wonders of the ocean.
“OK, let’s haul back,” Joe announced over
repaired nets for his father with large sewing
needles, and he soon picked up his own needle
and learned how to patch holes and snags in
the nylon mesh. All through high school, Joe
dutifully worked at his father’s fish market
weekday afternoons and on his fishing boats
all weekend. At some point, he accepted that
being a fisherman was his destiny.
He was 19 when he bought his first boat, the
Almighty, with two of his brothers and sailed
off to fish in Alaska’s remote waters near the
Soviet Union. Later, he’d spend five years
working all hours on two factory trawlers —
huge fishing boats with an onboard processing
facility — until he saved enough money to buy
his own boat, a 96­foot steel vessel called the
Vito C.
Like every trawler, the boat wasn’t much to
look at, but it helped him woo Grazia. They
met at the Monterey restaurant where she
waitressed. She had long chestnut­brown hair
and a wide smile, and, like Joe, she was the
child of Sicilian immigrants.
“He was a hard worker and funny and very
She turned him down the first few times he
asked her out, but he persisted. When Joe
invited her on an extended sailing trip with
two of his brothers, Grazia quit her job and
joined them. The goal was to pick up his new
Administration, or NOAA, which regulates
commercial fishing of groundfish, slashed the
amount of groundfish that people like Joe were
allowed to catch on the California coast. For
example, while the state’s commercial fisher­
men had once brought in more than 330 tons
of cowcod rockfish per year, by 2000 the entire
fleet was limited to just 4 tons. At the same
time, chefs and shoppers were moving away
from wild­caught fish and buying cheap farm­
raised seafood instead, like shrimp and tilapia
fillets from Asia.
Joe responded to the worsening economics
of his industry by selling his 96­foot boat and
downsizing to the 76­foot Pioneer. He took
construction side jobs and dabbled in real
estate, fixing up rundown houses in Monterey
and Chico and renting them out. When money
got tight, Joe and Grazia would sing each other
a bluesy song with lyrics they made up: “We
ain’t got no money, but we’re not overdrawn.”
As federal controls on fishing grew more
strict, so did enforcement of those rules.
NOAA began deploying a surveillance system
to monitor fishing boats. In 2004, the agency
started to require trawlers like the Pioneer to
carry devices that tracked them in real time
and made sure they weren’t venturing into
off­limits areas. And whenever Joe went fish­
ing, he was required to bring a NOAA auditor
on board — a government observer who
counted every fish he caught. The observer’s
cost was paid by Joe, about $2,500 per trip.
Essentially, every time he went fishing, he had
to pay the United States to spy on him.
That same year, his half brother died at sea
in a mysterious accident. On the night of June
21, 2004, David “Rowdy” Pennisi was fishing
off the coast of San Francisco when his boat
disappeared. All that remained when Joe and
his other brothers reached the site were a
broken life ring, plastic fish bins and a pair of
high­tops David always wore, floating in the
ocean. The family suspected that a tanker in

the area had slammed into his boat and fled
the scene — a maritime hit­and­run — but
they couldn’t prove it without deploying ex­
pensive sonar equipment to locate the wreck­
age underwater. The Coast Guard has access
to such technology but didn’t use it in the
investigation of the wreck, leaving the family
outraged. Joe’s sister Elizabeth told the media
that although her brother wasn’t famous, he
deserved an investigation as aggressive as the
one launched by the government after John F.
Kennedy Jr.’s 1999 plane crash into the sea.
Though nearly flattened by grief and the
struggle to squeeze out a living, Joe somehow
held on to fishing, bolstered by rental income
from some of the dozens of fixer­uppers he
owned. But he was increasingly alone in the
water. One by one, his fellow trawlers sold
their boats and left the profession; the hassles
weren’t worth the dwindling rewards. In 2010,
he was drawn into a legal squabble with an
irate squid fisher, and although Joe ultimately
prevailed in court, the ordeal forced him and
Grazia to sell off their rental properties to
cover legal costs and to move into a smaller
home. The stress sparked panic attacks in
Grazia that were severe enough to land her in
the emergency room.
By 2014, Joe was the last bottom trawler in
Monterey.
He was trying to make the best of it, already
adapting his methods to suit the new era of
scarcity and regulation. Researchers and envi­
ronmental groups have shown that trawling

blind, never seeing his huge net do its work.
Now, for the first time, he could observe his
most important piece of equipment and the
cold, dark water through which it moved. A
mysterious realm, suddenly illuminated. And
then, one night, he saw something that he
never expected to see. He saw a flash of gold.
THE BOTTOM
Before Joe’s father and grandfather were
born, before there was a San Francisco or a
United States, ships carrying thousands of
pounds of treasure regularly crossed the wa­
ters where the Pennisi family would one day
fish.
Spain’s galleons came first, three­masted
ships laden with riches of legend. The king­
dom plundered its colonies in the New World
for gold and silver and shipped the treasure to
ports around the globe, trading it for other
goods.
The galleons full of gold tended to float
through the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean
Sea, not the Pacific Ocean, but for 2½ centu­
ries, from 1565 to 1815, another set of galleons
worked a trade route that depended on Cali­
fornia waters. These ships sailed west from
Mexico carrying silver and gold coins, docking
in Manila and exchanging the treasure for
silk, porcelain, beeswax and intricate gold
jewelry. The galleons then returned to the
Americas, following trade winds to Northern
California and making a right turn when they
spotted Point Reyes, sailing south, back to
Mexico.
Later came the Gold Rush. When the first
prospectors carried their nuggets down from
the Sierra foothills in 1848, San Francisco was
a frontier town without a bank or a railroad.
The only way to get the gold into the banking
system was to send it to the East Coast, and
the only way to do that was to load it on
steamships that sailed south to Panama,
where the gold was placed on mules (eventu­
ally, train cars) and transported across the
isthmus. In the early years, steamships carried
nuggets and gold dust in raw form. Later the
gold was melted and forged into coins or bars
at San Francisco mints and stacked in the
ships’ bellies, often in iron­reinforced strong
rooms — as much as a dozen tons of gold on a
single vessel.
Any ship that ventured near the city, wheth­
er a Spanish galleon or a Gold Rush steamer,
had to contend with the bay’s fog and treach­
erous currents. During the middle of the 19th
century, at least 50 ships sank along the Cali­
fornia coast, according to research by James
Delgado, a historian and archaeologist of ship­
wrecks. One of those ships, a paddle steamer
called the Brother Jonathan, smashed against
a rock near the Oregon border in 1865, sending
more than 200 doomed passengers and at least
1,200 gold coins to the bottom of the ocean.
That lost treasure was discovered in 1996 by a
team of deep­sea explorers, and the bulk of it
sold for $5.3 million at auction.
While historians aren’t aware of a ship that
wrecked near San Francisco with lots of gold
on board, that doesn’t mean much. Federal
officials have documented 463 shipwrecks
within the Monterey Bay National Marine
Sanctuary but say hundreds more may have
gone down there without being recorded. Less
than 10% of Earth’s ocean floor has been
mapped.
“The oceans are our final frontier,” said

underwater vehicles outfitted with high­
definition cameras, floodlights and titanium
grabbing arms. These machines are pricey —
small pro­level rovers start at $15,000, larger
ones reach seven figures — and they require
support ships on the surface, along with
teams of engineers. The cost “gets up into the
millions,” said Phil Sammet, an accomplished
dive instructor and boat captain in Monterey.
“You’re going to need some heavy hitters. No
way around it.”
The last treasure hunters to pull off a suc­
cessful, large­scale recovery in California
were the ones who found the Brother Jona­
than off the shore of Crescent City (Del Norte
County). The effort required a team of human
divers, two small manned submarines work­
ing from a 110­foot support boat, millions of
dollars from investors — and a bit of luck.
One day, the dive leader, Capt. Wings Stocks,
a former U.S. Marine and a technical­diving
pioneer, made his way down to the wreck,
280 feet beneath the surface, and started
shining a high­wattage light on a layer of mud
and silt that had settled atop the ship’s debris.
After a few minutes, he said, he noticed a
“little curve” on a mud pile. “I said, ‘F—,
that’s gold.” He stopped and fanned the silt,
revealing a 20­dollar­gold piece untouched
for 130 years.
For a fisherman like Joe to retrieve sunken
treasure on his own would be rare, if not
impossible. But trawlers are often the first to
discover lost shipwrecks, for a simple reason:
Their nets get snagged on wreckage.
Decades ago, for instance, trawler David
Canepa was fishing off Monterey when his
net was caught on a large underwater object.
When he brought up the net, a strange chunk
of corroded aluminum came up, too. It was
from the Macon, a Navy zeppelin that crashed
into the Pacific in 1935, killing two crewmen.
Canepa marked the spot on his charts and
years later tipped off the Monterey Bay
Aquarium Research Institute, which sur­
veyed and mapped the wreck in 1990 and
1991.
“Amazing things come up in the drags,”
said Chatterton, who is also a former fisher­
man. “Everything from megalodon teeth to
wreckage to firearms to cannonballs.”
In fishing communities, though, trawlers
tend to be outcasts among outcasts, disdained
for the ugliness of their boats and the blunt­
ness of their methods, Sammet said. The
perception is that “they spend more on their
tattoos than they do on their teeth.” But that
perception is false, Sammet added. Trawlers
know things nobody else knows. “They know
what the bottom’s like.”

“LIKE THEY WERE IN

A TRANCE”
About six months before Joe saw the flash­
es of gold, in the springtime of 2014, he was
fishing in the sanctuary on a windy, unsettled
afternoon, the deck of the boat rising and
falling 8 to 10 feet with each crashing wave.
Joe was maintaining a steady speed of 3 knots
(roughly 3½ mph), the net trailing several
hundred feet beneath the surface, when the
boat suddenly jolted backward, almost throw­
ing him from his worn blue captain’s chair.
The net had caught on something a thousand
feet down. As waves spilled onto the deck, Joe
quickly put the ship into neutral and slowly
backed into the swell, releasing the net from
whatever had snagged it.
The crew, the net and the ship all escaped
unharmed. But the episode stuck in Joe’s
mind. He would recall it a few months later
when he was back in the same area and a
curious scrap of sodden wood came up in the
net. About 5 feet long, it felt like a sponge
when Joe touched it. He used a fingernail to
scrape off a tiny speck of white coloring on
the skin of the wood. It was paint, meaning
the wood was no piece of loose lumber. May­
be it was once part of a painted hull.
Joe noted the location on the Pioneer’s
plotter, a chart tracking the boat’s move­
ments. He figured he had stumbled upon a
piece of debris from an unrecorded ship­
wreck. He remembered that his father and Joe pilots the Pioneer through the Golden Gate, top, to the open waters of the Pacific Ocean, where

buddies. The image showed olive­green water
with orange fish swimming past a rectangular
object giving off a golden glow.
“Hey, my friend sent this to me,” he wrote
in one text. “What do you think it is?”
Of the four people he texted — none of
whom had ever examined or even touched a
gold bar — three responded that the object
was surely gold.
Heartened by the results of this crude poll,
Joe continued to share the photo. One day he
stopped by a boatyard where some of his
dad’s cronies — retired Italian American
trawlers — were drinking coffee. He showed
them the photo, too.
The old men lifted their heads from their
cups just long enough to glance at his phone.
But they said the word Joe wanted to hear:
gold.
Joe also told a few middle­aged fishermen
about his discovery and asked whether they
knew anything about underwater photog­
raphy. He just wanted to talk a little shop, get
some ideas. But he quickly learned it was
impossible to have a casual conversation
about sunken gold. He noticed a strange,
glazed expression in the eyes of the men, “like
they were in a trance,” he recalled.
He also shared the picture with his three
daughters and three sons. All started making
lists of things they would buy once the family
was rich.
Grazia finally watched the videos too. She
saw what Joe had seen, shiny rectangles on
the seafloor. Trusting his instincts that it was
gold, she pitched in and began researching
shipwrecks online. But she never let herself
think that her husband’s discovery would
make them multimillionaires. “It’s kind of
like winning the lottery — what if I had the
winning ticket?” she said. “It would be nice.
But it’d have to be in front of my face to be­
lieve it.”
Joe realized he wasn’t getting any closer to
the treasure. He needed to find some experts.
He Googled “deepwater exploration” and
found companies specializing in recovering
objects from the bottoms of lakes and oceans
— treasure, forensic evidence, minerals,
trash. One company, Global Diving & Salvage
in Seattle, had positive customer reviews. Joe
decided to text his photo to one of its experts,
Danny Broadhurst, an Australian­born diver
with three decades of experience.
“I remember it like it was yesterday,”
Broadhurst recalled. At the time, he was the
company’s diving operations manager, based
in a satellite office on Mare Island in Vallejo.
Over his long career he had explored ship­
wrecks off Spain and Andalusia, recovering
bits of gold and silver.
His immediate reaction to Joe’s photo was
that it looked like the real thing. What struck
him was the shine of the rectangular object in
the image. Most metals deteriorate underwa­
ter. They rust, they fade, they develop crusts
of sea creatures on their surfaces. “But gold?
It looks like nothing has ever happened to it,”
Broadhurst said. Even if an ingot has been
underwater for hundreds of years, it seems
brand new, as shiny as the day it was forged.
“That’s why it’s so valuable, I guess. Gold is
gold is gold. It’s beautiful, and I wish I had a
lot of it.”
Though he had no idea who Joe was,
Broadhurst called him right back. “That is
exactly what you think it is,” the diver told
him. “And remember this: There’s never just
one bar.”
Joe felt the skin on his arms tingle.
Until this conversation, he’d allowed for the
possibility that the objects in the videos might
not be gold. That this was all just wishful
thinking. But now, an expert diver was vali­
dating his hunch and sharing all kinds of facts
about gold, like its great density and weight;
SFChronicle.com | Sunday, November 3, 2019 | S9
gold is 1.7 times heavier than an equal volume
of lead. As someone who often worked with
scrap metal and was always welding iron bars
to his boat, Joe found it incredible that gold
could weigh almost twice as much as lead; the
number 1.7 stuck in his mind.
What the diver said next, as unsettling as it
was, gave him even more confidence. Broad­
hurst urged Joe to keep his discovery a secret.
Joe thought the diver was warning him
about thieves who might try to steal the trea­
sure — during dives in Spain, Broadhurst and
his crew had carried semiautomatic weapons
on their boat for that reason — but the diver
meant something else. In Joe’s recollection,
Broadhurst told him to be “very careful for
you and your family,” because people might
try to kidnap his children to get information
about the gold.
(Broadhurst does not remember that com­
ment, but he said via email that he would
“certainly agree that the allure of gold can
make individuals a bit wacky.”)
Joe himself was starting to feel the pressure
of his fantastic find. The stereotype of a fish­
erman is that he brags and exaggerates, living
by stories instead of science, and Joe would
struggle against this perception in coming
years.
Then again, he wasn’t just telling a typical
fish story. He had the videos. He had a hero
shot of what looked for all the world like a
brick of gold. He had a completely credible
story of how the videos came to exist. Some­
thing was down there. And the promise of
retrieving it was real enough to captivate
people who knew a lot more about treasure
than he did.
Joe had spent his whole life as a fisherman,
trying not to get killed by the ocean. Now he
was about to enter a completely different
world — one that, in its own way, was just as
perilous.

PART II
GOLD­CRAZY
San Francisco fisherman Giuseppe “Joe” Pennisi stepped into a taxi at
the Seattle airport, clutching a beat­up laptop computer in an old bag and
wearing his favorite pair of Ariat cowboy boots, crusted with fish scales.
He gave the driver an address. The taxi delivered him to a shiny tan and
black skyscraper overlooking downtown.
It was November 2014. For weeks,
Joe had been buzzing with energy,
ever since he showed his video of the
ocean floor to expert diver Danny
Broadhurst. The diver had told him
what he wanted to hear: The rectangu­
lar object in the video was almost
certainly a gold bar, something valu­
able enough to change his family’s life
— if he could get his hands on it.
At first, Joe had thought he could
use his fishing boat, the Pioneer, as a
launchpad for an expedition. He fig­
ured he could take the boat back to the
spot of the discovery and use a sonar
machine or an underwater rover to
take more detailed pictures
of the objects on the sea­
floor. But when he asked his
longtime insurance broker
whether the Pioneer could
be insured for such a jour­
ney, the broker said he was
getting way ahead of him­
self. First, the broker said,
he needed a lawyer.
Joe had a lawyer: David
Hollingsworth, a family
friend who had represented
his father for decades and
ran a small solo practice out
of a home office in Mon­
terey. But the insurance
broker urged him to speak
with an expert in maritime
law — someone who un­
derstood the legal obstacles
to recovering treasure —
and gave him the name of a
firm in Seattle. Visit the
firm in person, and show
your video, the broker sug­
gested.
The idea made Joe ner­
vous. Making presentations
in boardrooms was not part
of his usual routine, and he
didn’t own a suit. He dug
through his clothes for his
best pair of jeans and his Sources: NOAA, Google
cleanest shirt. But he decid­
ed to wear the beat­up cow­
boy boots, which attracted flies, too.
Grazia found them disgusting. “You’re
not going to wear the fish­scale boots,
are you?” she asked.
The taxi dropped him at the 47­floor
skyscraper that housed Holmes Wed­
dle & Barcott, a century­old commer­
cial law firm handling maritime dis­
putes across the Pacific Northwest. A
young man in a tailored suit and slick­
ed­back hair emerged from the eleva­
tor, hand extended. The guy looked
like James Bond, Joe thought — noth­
ing like his personal attorney, Hol­
lingsworth, who was 77 and wore
stained polo shirts.
They rode up to the 26th floor.
The way Joe remembers what hap­
pened next, it was like he stepped onto
the set of a legal drama, with men and
women whisking important­looking
papers to and fro. He was ushered into
a large conference room, where sever­
al people sat around a long table,
apparently waiting for someone im­
portant to arrive. It took him a second
to realize that the important person
was him.
Joe said a nervous hello. He pulled
out his old laptop and plugged in a
cable to connect to the television.
Left: Joleen and Joe chain their trawling equipment aboard the Pioneer off the coast of San Francisco.
The lights went down. The fisher­
man pressed play, and the room fell
silent.
On the screen, they watched a
school of fish swimming along the
seafloor. Suddenly, there was the
flash, that now­familiar rectangle that
sped by as quickly as it had appeared.
One attorney immediately said it
looks like gold.
“That’s the only thing that shines
like that underwater,” he said.
When the lights flicked back on, the
room buzzed with chatter and the
clacking of laptops.
According to Joe, the attorneys

pulled up the regulations controlling
the Monterey Bay sanctuary and, after
reviewing them for a few moments,
explained to Joe that federal law is
clear: Unless he could get a special
government permit, the only thing he
is allowed to touch on the seafloor is
fish. The law explicitly banned un­
derwater salvage and recovery opera­
tions in the sanctuary, including the
use of human divers and robotic sub­
mersibles. Other rules outlawed pos­
sessing, moving or damaging any
objects of historical or cultural signif­
icance. Penalties were as high as
$100,000 per day. If Joe tried to mount
an illegal operation and got caught, he
stood to drown in debt and could lose
his fishing permit.
That was the bad news. But there
was good news too: Certain litigation
strategies could help him navigate
around those obstacles and stake a
claim for the gold, the attorneys said.
They were interested in representing
him but needed time to research his
find.
Michael Barcott, a senior lawyer
with white hair and thick glasses,
made a suggestion: The TV in the
conference room was on the smaller

side, and he happened to have a larger
one at home. Why not watch the video
there, to get a better look?
So later that day, the group recon­
vened in Barcott’s family room.
When Joe arrived, he fell into con­
versation with Barcott, and soon they
were talking shop about fishing. Bar­
cot had grown up in a fishing family
and has represented fishing compa­
nies in the Pacific Northwest for 43
years. He was impressed with Joe’s
earnest approach to his livelihood. “He
seemed genuine,” Barcott recalled.
“He’s got a terrific trawl operation in a
very sensitive area in Monterey. He’s
figured out how to trawl
over coral. … He’s really
proud of the product he
produces, too.”
Barcott turned off the
lights and pulled down the
shades, and Joe queued up
the video on a large­screen
TV. The guests sat on couch­
es. The video scrolled. The
brick­shaped object floated
into view.
Pause it, Barcott said.
After some rewinding
managed to freeze the video
with the object right in the
Monterey
middle of the screen. In 43
Bay
years as a maritime law
expert, Barcott had never
seen anything like it.
“I’m a skeptical person by
nature, so I was skeptical
about this from the begin­
ning,” he recalled. “And this
was the first point at which
San I thought: Maybe this was
Simeon the real deal.”
In the next few days, the
Morro Bay firm told Joe it was interest­
ed, and Barcott and his
colleagues devised a legal
game plan. “There are a
tremendous amount of legal
obstacles between finding
gold on the bottom and
putting that gold in the bank,” Barcott
said. “But. But! It seemed like there
was a chance. Yeah.”
THE OCEAN COPS
Before the trip to Seattle, Joe figured
the treasure was as good as his. He
knew that the act of getting his hands
on it might be tricky, but he assumed
the obstacles were straightforward.
Whenever he thought about those
ingots deep in the ocean, he felt like he
was soaring.
At first, the meetings in Seattle
fueled that feeling. People with money
and expertise had fussed over him like
no one ever had, and told him the
video images looked like gold.
Still, as he packed his bags and
headed back to Monterey, he felt like
he “had fallen out of the sky a little
bit.” The next phase of his quest, he
now realized, would involve a long
slog through the court system. Even if
he succeeded in getting his hands on
the treasure, it would take years of
battles before he owned it outright.
And going down that route meant
confronting an institution he had
come to fear and loathe: the federal
S12 | Sunday, November 3, 2019 | SFChronicle.com
The Pioneer, one of the last trawling boats in California, uses a huge net to scoop up fish from the ocean floor at depths of more than 4,000 feet.
government.
The government monitors fishermen to
protect fish stocks and ocean habitats. But to
Joe, it feels more like a cop who is watching
him all the time. Federal agents are there with
him on the boat when he goes out to sea. They
are there when he releases his net, and they
are waiting on the dock when he gets back to
the wharf. Like G­men in a movie, fish and
wildlife officers regularly watch him while he
sells fish, observing him and his crew from a
parked car or a nearby restaurant.
Experiences like these have shaped Joe’s
politics, though not always in the most pre­
dictable way. He is a guy who donates thou­
sands of pounds of fish every week to the soup
kitchen at Glide Memorial, a progressive
Methodist church in San Francisco’s Tender­
loin neighborhood. He also has two Donald
Trump bumper stickers on his pickup truck.
“DON’T STEAL” reads a sticker plastered on
the crusty refrigerator in the Pioneer’s galley.
“THE GOVERNMENT HATES COMPETI­
TION.”
All of which is to say that Joe’s relationship
with the government is a complicated one,
flavored by mutual suspicion. His meetings in
Seattle had only intensified his paranoia,
especially when he learned he’d need a federal
permission slip to hunt for his treasure in the
Monterey Bay sanctuary.
America’s marine sanctuaries sprawl across
600,000 square miles of water, a network of
underwater parks established to preserve
ocean and freshwater regions that are partic­
ularly beautiful, fragile or historically signif­
icant. One sanctuary off the coast of North
Carolina protects the grave of the Monitor, an
iron­hulled ship that fought a famous Civil
War battle against a Confederate ironside and
later sank in a storm. Other sanctuaries ex­
tend through Hawaii, the Florida Keys and the
Great Lakes. Along the California coast, the
state owns the waters out to a limit of 3 nauti­
cal miles, and generally, just beyond that in­
visible border, the Monterey Bay sanctuary
takes over, controlling a huge stretch of coastal
waters from San Luis Obispo County to the
Marin Headlands.
The sanctuary’s ban on unlicensed trea­
sure­hunting exists for a good reason, said
James Delgado, the former sanctuary official.
“ ‘Finders keepers’ doesn’t work, because
not everything that is down there (on the
seafloor) is abandoned,” Delgado said. “There
may very well be an owner. And property
rights is a key aspect of what makes this coun­
try run, as well as the rest of the global econo­
my.”
It was difficult for Joe to see it this way. He
and his family were fishing in the sanctuaries
long before they were designated as such, and
he had always felt a sense of pride and free­
dom on the water. Now he was learning exact­
ly how insignificant the government consid­
ered him to be. It didn’t matter that he and his
family had spent their lives fishing the sea­
floor. It didn’t matter that he knew the bottom
better than anyone else. He was not allowed to
reach down and touch a single thing, even one

that could put his six kids through college.
One way around the ban was simply to ask
the government to make an exception. In rare
cases, the National Marine Sanctuary awards
permits for underwater exploration, allowing
divers or an underwater rover inside sanctu­
ary borders. But those permits usually go to
large science organizations or corporate sal­
vage boats, not lone fishermen, which is why
the Seattle law firm urged Joe to consider a
second option: going straight to court. The
attorneys said he could file a type of federal
lawsuit called an in rem action, also known as
an admiralty arrest.
The concept goes back to 2,000 B.C., said
Charles George, an Atlanta maritime lawyer
who specializes in admiralty arrests. The idea
is to haul up part of an abandoned shipwreck
and present it to a judge, thereby announcing
your intention to learn more about it and
claim ownership. The piece of the ship can be
as tiny as a single bolt or scrap of wood. “It
represents the wreck. It’s kind of like the title
to the car,” George said. “It gives you time. It
sort of stalls everything.”
But an admiralty arrest is just the start of a
legal process. Once it has been filed and the
treasure announced, other parties can in­
tervene, laying claim to the treasure in court.
It might be an insurance company like Lloyd’s
of London, which still holds policies on ships
that sank centuries ago, or a country like
Spain, which can still claim ownership of the
gold carried in any number of sunken galle­
ons. A treasure hunter might spend millions
to retrieve a shipwreck and the gold within,
only to be forced in court to hand it over to
another party, like Spain, which, of course,
originally stole the gold from any number of
indigenous peoples.
Every shipwreck hunter seems to have a
story about a treasure recovery gone horribly
Pennisi’s bottom-trawling net
wrong. One of the worst belongs to Sir Robert
Marx. Back in the 1980s, he tried in vain to
salvage a shipwreck off the coast of Point
Reyes, in waters controlled by the National
Park Service. Three decades earlier, during a
dive, he believed he had discovered a centu­
ries­old Manila galleon called the San Agustin,
which sank during a storm in 1595. The wreck
was potentially full of treasure, and although
it was tantalizingly close to the surface — just
30 feet deep — Marx said he couldn’t persuade
the Park Service to let him conduct a salvage
operation. California officials weren’t much
help either, even though the state would have
recovered a piece of lost history. Government
agencies later tried to locate the ship them­
selves but failed. Marx died in July at age 85.
Another cautionary tale involves a Floridian
named Tommy Thompson, who discovered
the wreck of the Central America, a steamship
that sank in an 1857 hurricane off South Caro­
lina. The ship had been carrying 3 tons of gold
prospected in San Francisco’s Gold Rush.
After Thompson announced the extraordinary
scope of his haul — $100 million to $150 mil­
lion in gold ingots and other riches — a swarm
of insurance companies filed claims for the
treasure. So did a sect of Capuchin monks.
Several investors said he stiffed them on the
profits and sued. In 2012 he skipped a hearing
and became a fugitive, and when finally cap­
tured three years later, he was living under an
assumed name in a Florida hotel. He went to
prison. His cousin told the Washington Post

that Thompson regretted ever trying to re­
trieve the gold: “You don’t throw away your
life for something that’s yellow and weighs a
lot.”
“Gold fever will turn nice people just dis­
honest and aggressive,” said Wings Stocks, the
diver who recovered gold coins from the
wreck of the Brother Jonathan. After he and
his colleagues brought up the coins, the state
Lands Commission made a claim for the booty,
leading to a multiyear court battle that ended
with California nabbing 200 coins and the
salvors keeping the rest. “Once gold hits the
table, all rules are off.”
DAVE AND JOLEEN
A week or two after Joe’s trip to Seattle,
Michael Barcott, the maritime law expert,
traveled to Monterey for a follow­up meeting.
This time, they met at the home office of Joe’s
personal attorney and family friend, David
Hollingsworth.
A tall, determined man with short­cropped
white hair, Hollingsworth had recently moved
his law practice from downtown Monterey to
his expansive home in the city’s outskirts. Joe
had always loved visiting this place, both for
business meetings and the occasional dinner;
the attorney was a great cook, serving scratch­
made pizzas with magnums of Pinot Noir. He
was in his late 70s and still played tennis near­
ly every day, either at Carmel Valley Ranch or
on his own backyard court. His high­ceilinged
home office, with windows looking out on his
prized potted dahlias, displayed three framed
courtroom sketches from a case in which he
successfully defended a fisherman accused of
threatening to kill a Coast Guard officer. (It’s a
long story, but one that the attorney delights
in telling; it involves a guardsman chasing a
fisherman from a helicopter, only to be re­
fused permission to board.)
Hollingsworth had little experience with
treasure. The maritime aspect of his law prac­
tice mainly involved collisions and other acci­
dents on the high seas; for instance, he once
represented Joe’s father when a member of his
crew was inadvertently shot through the back
of the head with a spear gun (he lived). Just as
Joe took pride in being able to fix any machine,
Hollingsworth saw himself as an attorney who
could solve any problem, large or small, local
or global — “a country lawyer practicing on
the open range,” as he put it. From the mo­
ment Joe told him about the shiny flashes on
his GoPro videos, Hollingsworth was trans­
fixed, eager to get involved.
That was fine with Joe. Hollingsworth had
represented his clan for more than 50 years.
When Joe was a kid, his father used to load
him and his brothers in his beat­up station
wagon and drive them to Hollingsworth’s law
office, where a secretary would sit the kids on
an ancient wooden bench while the two adult
men argued.
“Dave is a very strong­willed man, and my
father was the same,” Joe said. “It sounded
like people were fighting, but they were just
talking.” Much later, Hollingsworth had come
through for Joe in court, saving him “from the
jaws of death” in the 2010 legal feud with the
squid fisher. After Joe spent years defending
the suit, selling real estate to pay legal fees,
Hollingsworth eventually got the case dis­
missed.
So when Seattle attorney Barcott came to
talk about the treasure, Joe wanted Hollings­
worth at his side.
For the first time, the men discussed num­
bers.
In exchange for representing Joe and filing a
claim for the gold on his behalf, the Seattle
firm wanted a percentage of whatever gold
was eventually recovered, similar to an agent’s
fee. This is a standard arrangement in treasure
cases because of the risk involved: A firm can
easily spend decades and millions of dollars
researching the find and fighting others who
make claims for the treasure — and that’s
before a single piece of gold is released to the
client.
Hollingsworth was wary. He thought the
Seattle firm was asking for too much money,
and he wanted to keep some control of the
project himself, as Joe’s longtime lawyer. Bar­
cott declined to discuss the meeting in detail,
but he remembered it being friendly: “I
thought Joe thought we were on board with
him.” Regardless, soon afterward, Barcott and
his firm walked away from the project. “For
reasons I am not comfortable revealing,” he

but not convincing: “I did see things that could
be the gold bars. But until I was there or had it
in my hands, I wasn’t going to say it was.”
Deciding that Joe passed a basic, prelimi­
nary “sanity check,” Horan and his firm began
preparing to file a federal claim on the fisher­
man’s behalf. The Key West lawyer also put
Joe and Hollingsworth in touch with two ma­
rine archaeologists in Florida. The lawyer told
Joe to share his videos and let them analyze
the footage, at a cost of about $5,000.
According to Joe, one of the two archaeol­
ogists who viewed the footage was able to
determine the value of the bar­shaped objects. Technical divers

dimensions — and any one ingot would be

ogist told him, though the ultimate value
could vary based on factors like the gold’s
purity.
Joe had counted a possible 30 bars. If the
archaeologist was right, and all of those other
bars truly existed, the fisherman was looking
at a $55 million payday.
But Hollingsworth was beginning to believe
that the 30 bars were just a small part of a
larger hoard from a long­forgotten Manila
galleon, one of the Spanish trade ships that
carried stupendous quantities of treasure. If
that were the case, $55 million was chump
change.
“It stood to be the prize of a lifetime,” Hol­
lingsworth said. “You’re talking big, big mon­
ey.”

imagination: The plunder from a single galle­
on could be worth billions, he thought.
There were a few problems with Hollings­
worth’s galleon theory. One had to do with
geography. Though the wrecks of Spanish
galleons stocked with gold coins have been
discovered in places like the coast of Portugals
and the Caribbean Sea, that is unlikely to
happen on the California coast. According to
historians, even if galleons sailing to Califor­
nia had carried some gold, they would have
been mostly emptied of gold by the time they
reached the West Coast, having already off­
loaded it in Manila. Instead, the galleons usu­
ally held porcelain, silk and jewelry.
Another key discrepancy involved the
shape of Joe’s bars. Spanish colonies produced
gold ingots that were rounded in shape, like
disks or loaves of bread. The ones in Joe’s
videos were rectangular. To Horan, they more
closely resembled the ones recovered from
Gold Rush­era steamers that had been pro­
duced in “an honest­to­God mint.”
In any case, if Joe had truly discovered a
centuries­old Spanish galleon, it might have
been the worst news possible, because those
ships and their cargoes still belong to Spain,
under ironclad international agreements
signed by the United States. And Spain is
notorious for hardball litigation in defense of
its wrecks. In 2012, for example, a judge or­

dered the American company Odyssey Ma­

rine Exploration to return $500 million in gold
and silver coins it had recovered from a Span­
ish galleon that sank off the coast of Portugal.
But whether out of wishful thinking or
miscommunication, Hollingsworth was fully
committed to the galleon theory. A picture
had formed in his mind and gotten stuck
there: a beautiful Spanish ship with three
masts, 400 years ago, sailing past a Bay Area
occupied by Ohlone people and hammered by
ship­crushing storms. He believed he was on
the precipice of a billion­dollar discovery, and
all that remained was to hire the right dive
companies and pull the right levers in the
legal system.
Plunging in with abandon and devoting
dozens of hours a week to the quest, Hollings­
worth called every expert he could find, trying
to figure out how much professionals would
charge to explore the wreck and recover any
valuables. He learned that most companies
charged retainers of $30,000 and day rates of
around $10,000. That included several days of
“mobilization” at the dock, all of which had to
be paid even if the weather turned sour and
they couldn’t go out to sea. Hollingsworth was
unsettled by the high prices, but reasoned that
he could raise more money if needed. He
pushed forward, even developing a novel legal
theory that because the galleons were mer­
chant ships, not warships, they were therefore
not subject to international agreements. The
country lawyer from Monterey was preparing
for bare­knuckle legal combat with the gov­
ernment of Spain.
But as Hollingsworth’s passion grew, Joe
began to worry. During each conference call
with a new salvage company, Hollingsworth
spent most of the time boasting about his own
credentials, and Joe noticed that many of the
companies didn’t call back. “Dave was such a
bulldog,” Joe said. “He took over the whole
thing.”
He remembered the warning about how the
hunt for gold could change people, and it now
rang true: Hollingsworth didn’t seem quite
like Hollingsworth anymore.
The fisherman was starting to wonder
whether the treasure hunt was becoming a
liability. The project only seemed to deplete
his time, attention and money — and he
hadn’t seen a dime from it yet. It was also
starting to interfere with his two day jobs. He
was still fishing on the Pioneer, but to support
his family of eight, he was also installing
refrigerators on the side.
As the weeks wore on, Joe struggled to keep
the fishing part of his life afloat, increasingly
depending on his deck boss, Joleen Lambert
Skinner, to pick up the slack.
Despite being deaf since birth and a woman
in a male­dominated industry, Joleen won
respect from the deckhands with her fierce
work ethic, and she and Joe had developed a
close bond. She compensated for his weak­
nesses. When Joe tended to get distracted, she
forced him to focus. When he was too gener­
ous to customers or crew members, she re­
minded him about financial reality. When he
was too trusting of strangers, she folded her
arms and glared.

“We listened carefully and talked openly,”
recalled Delgado, who now works for a mar­
itime archaeology research firm in Florida. “It
was: OK, what about this, what about that?
Trying to see what he wanted to do, and also
to understand what we were dealing with.”
One of the call’s participants, James Sinclair,
a marine archaeologist hired by Joe and Hol­
lingsworth, wasn’t surprised by the govern­
ment’s reluctance. In his experience, federal
officials and academics tended to approach
shipwrecks with the opposite of urgency,
sometimes driving treasure hunters nuts.
Given a choice between leaving a historical
object in place and seeing it sold into private
hands, a government agency or university
would choose inaction every time, hoping the
object might one day land in a museum, Sin­
clair later explained. Caution and delay could
be weaponized to protect history.
But Joe didn’t see it that way. He felt the
officials were threatening him in coded bu­
reaucratic language. Whatever the case, the
officials didn’t seem at all excited by the possi­
bility of finding a lost ship, and Joe found it
stressful and unpleasant simply to have an
extended interaction with federal officials. It
got his paranoia flowing. As the feds volleyed
cautiously with Hollingsworth, the fisherman
imagined sitting in a prison cell, missing his
daughters’ softball games.
After the call, it was obvious to Joe and
Hollingsworth that a permit would never
happen. And without that, they couldn’t touch
anything on the ocean floor. No permit, no
treasure recovery. No permit, no gold.
But they weren’t ready to give up.
Their last option seemed like a long shot,
but it was the only one left: They could try
their luck in the court system, revisiting the
idea of an in rem action, or admiralty arrest —
a federal lawsuit asserting their right to recov­
er the shipwreck, if one existed, and any asso­
ciated treasure.
For a while now, David Paul Horan, the Key
West lawyer, had been nudging them down
this path, explaining how it could succeed
when all else failed. With an admiralty arrest,
the goal is to “arrest” the treasure, gaining title
to it. The plaintiff in the case is the treasure
hunter, and the defendant is the shipwreck or
the treasure itself (a famous case from 1960
bore the name Wiggins v. 1100 Tons, More or
Less, of Italian Marble; another case was called
Gardner v. Ninety­Nine Gold Coins). The trea­
sure hunter goes to federal court and presents
evidence of his find, and depending on the
strength of that evidence — and the persua­
siveness of any competing claims to the booty
— he wins the case or he loses. If he wins, the
treasure is eventually brought up from the
bottom and delivered into his waiting hands.
The advantage of an admiralty arrest, as
Horan explained to Joe and Hollingsworth,
was protection. Once they filed their claim in
court, they would draw a legal force field
around the objects on the seafloor. Competitors
couldn’t touch them without filing a claim of
their own. And, generally, the government
couldn’t either.
In other words, it meant that the restrictions
of the Monterey marine sanctuary weren’t
necessarily a deal­breaker for Joe. Horan’s law
practice was in Key West, and he had often
represented clients who found treasure inside
the huge Florida Keys National Marine Sanctu­
ary. While the legal nuances of treasure cases
are complicated and the opinions of attorneys
may diverge, Horan believed that admiralty
law “doesn’t end at the sanctuary border.”
Even if Joe’s gold was inside the sanctuary, he
could still lay claim to it through the admiralty
arrest process, essentially forcing the govern­
ment to fight it out in court.
There was a huge catch, though: To actually
“arrest” the treasure, you have to tell the court
what it is that you want arrested and where it
is. And Joe didn’t know those things, exactly.
Not yet.
Horan could easily draft an in rem action
for Joe, but to prevail in court, Joe almost
certainly needed some hard evidence that

historic and valuable man­made objects were
really down there — a gold bar, a scrap of
wood or metal from a ship, or, at the very
least, detailed and persuasive photographs, for
starters.
“If somebody says they found a Spanish
galleon,” Horan recalled, “the first thing I ask
them is, when are we going to go diving? You
gotta go down and pick it up.”
It still wasn’t clear to Joe how he was sup­
posed to do that without getting caught in the
act by NOAA staff or sanctuary officials, and
he wasn’t even sure he wanted to file a law­
suit. Did he really have the stomach, or the
cash, to spend the next five to 10 years of his
life in court?
But by this point, he was itching to do
something. There was a huge part of Joe, not
necessarily a logical or calculating part, that
just wanted to see the gold bars up close. To
feel one of them in his hands. Hollingsworth
was getting impatient, too. They wanted to
know what they were dealing with.
They started planning a small expedition.
As much as it scared him, Joe would take the
Pioneer back to the spot of his discovery. He
would figure out a way to explore the bottom,
get a precise fix on the location of the gold
bars from his videos, and search for other
signs of a shipwreck.
The expedition would be a Hail Mary of
sorts, an improbable and desperate expedition
on a shoestring budget. Because of the federal
rules governing marine sanctuaries, he
couldn’t dive or use a rover there. If he an­
chored his boat in one spot for even a few
days, he might attract the attention of NOAA
or other fishermen. As always, Joe was terri­
fied of giving the government even the slight­
est cause for suspicion. Whatever he did, it
would have to be quick, cheap and impro­
vised. It would probably brush right up
against the lines of the law. And if it didn’t
work, he might have exhausted his options.
But he was determined. It could be his last
chance.

PART III

THE WRECK
In any underwater recovery operation, the first challenge is to find the
object on the seafloor, which is not as simple as it might seem, even with a
boat full of fuel, a high­quality GPS system and an exact set of coordinates.
The boat sails to the spot and drops anchor; the crew prepares to explore the
depths below. But the surface of the ocean doesn’t stay still. Even an an­
chored boat can be rocked by waves and swell and drift out of position.

And Joe faced an additional difficul­
ty. While he knew the approximate
spot where his boat had been when
the GoPro captured the initial videos,
he didn’t know the exact location of
the treasure, because the GoPro was
clipped to the trawling net, which
trails several hundred feet behind the
boat, swaying with the currents. The
gold he sought might have been any­
where within a circle several hundred
feet in diameter.
According to David Mearns, an
accomplished shipwreck hunter and
oceanographer in the United Kingdom
who has located wrecks around the
globe, if an underwater search circle is
as small as 200 meters (650 feet)
across, it’s still “virtually impossible”
to locate an object like a gold ingot on
the seafloor. It would be like trying to
find a lost iPhone in a park the size of
four football fields — in the dark. Joe’s
search area was substantially larger:
According to his calculations, the gold
bars were spread out over a quarter­
mile stripe of seafloor, with a few
hundred feet of uncertainty over
where that quarter mile started and
ended.
But Joe had one more piece of in­
formation that could help: the location
of the Pioneer when its net got
snagged on a large underwater object
in the same area where the videos
were taken. He knew from experience
that a snag like that is typically caused
by a shipwreck and had marked the
spot on his plotter, an electronic chart
that displays a vessel’s coordinates.
Whatever was down there, he was
going to need some new imaging
equipment to document it. The GoPro
video cameras alone wouldn’t work,
because they operated blindly; Joe
could switch them on and send them
underwater, but he could see the vid­
eos they captured only after the fact.
He needed a live camera to use as a
sort of inverted periscope — a way to
see what was going on underwater as
he navigated.
Hollingsworth and Joe settled on a
product called a SeaViewer, a small
camera that takes real­time underwa­
ter video and transmits it to a monitor
on the ship. They spent about $15,000
of their dwindling funds to purchase
two SeaViewers equipped with power­
ful lights to illuminate the seafloor.
Because these new cameras would
provide a live feed only, with no ability
to record the images, Joe planned to
use the SeaViewers to pinpoint the
exact location of the shipwreck. The
GoPros, operating simultaneously,
could record it.
Even now, Joe won’t reveal exactly
how he decided to deploy the Sea­
Viewers. But he built a custom con­
traption to hold them in place, relying
on the same sort of skills and scrap
materials that he and his daughter
used to make the Fisheye, the hydro­
foil that housed the GoPro cameras.
In the meantime, Horan and Hol­
lingsworth drew up paperwork for an
admiralty arrest. “COMPLAINT IN
REM,” it read, “FOR AWARD OF
FIND AND/OR SALVAGE.”
The language of the complaint
spoke to the oddities of maritime law,
its precepts shaped by merchants and
empires. Joe’s fishing company, GGP
LLC, was the plaintiff. The defendant
was “THE UNIDENTIFIED,
WRECKED AND ABANDONED
VESSEL, her tackle, armament, ap­
parel, and cargo located within 3,000
yards of two points with a line drawn
between them located at”— and here
the lawyers left a space to fill in the
rough coordinates of the find. The
document went on to say that the
defendant (the wreck) was in a state of
abandonment and the plaintiff was
willing to spend a great amount of
time and effort to salvage it. Depend­
ing on what Joe actually discovered
during his return to the site, the law­
yers would tweak the wording.
With the legal paperwork drafted
and the new gadgets loaded onto his
boat, Joe was ready to sail back to the
site of the snag. He decided to ask his
deck boss, Joleen, to join him. She was
the only person in his professional
circle whose eyes didn’t bug out when
he talked about gold; the prospect of
recovering sunken treasure hadn’t
changed her in any way.
They followed their normal fishing
routine, which meant leaving in the
middle of the night from Moss Land­
ing. Joe started the engine at around
2:30 a.m. From his ratty captain’s
chair, Joe piloted the Pioneer through
the harbor’s narrow entrance to the
Pacific. Once in the open ocean, he
increased his speed to 7 knots (around
8 mph) and headed west into the Mon­
terey Bay sanctuary.
About five hours later, with the sun
rising, they approached the site of the
snag. Joleen brought eggs and toast up
to the wheelhouse on paper plates.
Saying little, they ate the breakfast,
dropped the recording devices in the
water and started watching a large
flat­screen monitor displaying the live
images from the two underwater
cameras. Each SeaViewer documented
a 10­square­foot patch of seafloor and
relayed a grainy black­and­white feed
to the screen.
All through that day, and continu­
ing after sunset, they stared at the
screen as Joe steered the ship around
the target area, first back and forth,
then in slow arcs, planning to circle
the approximate spot until he found
the wreck, like fishermen do when
they hunt for a missing net or crab
pot. There was little to see: bare ocean
bottom, seaweed, rocks. Meanwhile,
the GoPro cameras whirred, filling
their precious memory cards with
useless footage of silt.
Midnight passed. Joleen started to
get tired. Then, around 2 a.m., the
view on the screen suddenly changed.
An object loomed into view, covered
in seaweed and barnacles. It was cy­

After spending months in pursuit of the treasure he was sure he had glimpsed, Joe, right, was ready to take the Pioneer on a mission
to prove he had found a shipwreck. When he needed sleep, he'd escape to his bunk, above, where family photos fill the walls.
SFChronicle.com | Sunday, November 3, 2019 | S17
S18 | Sunday, November 3, 2019 | SFChronicle.com

lindrical. And massive. It stuck out of the mud

at a 30­degree angle. It seemed to be about 14
feet long.
Joe knew instantly that the object had to be
man­made. It was perfectly symmetrical.
He looked closer. The object appeared to be
perched on a pedestal.
He thought: That’s a cannon.
At that moment, Joleen happened to be
glancing away from the screen. She couldn’t
hear the long string of swear words Joe ut­
tered, nor was she positioned to read his lips.
He touched her arm; she swung her head. He
pointed at the image on the monitor. That’s
when Joleen saw something she had never
seen before in her thousands of hours at sea.
“I was speechless,” she later recalled. “I was
afraid to talk.”
To Joleen, the cylinder looked like the chim­
ney of an old steamboat, the kind you’d see in
a painting or a History Channel documentary.
That was her instant reaction. It was followed
immediately by another one, equally strong: It
can’t be a shipwreck. The idea that they’d
actually found a lost ship just seemed too
fantastic.
The two gaped at the screen for more than a
minute.
Joe felt a giant sudden surge of gratitude
that Joleen was there. Of everyone in his life,
she was the least invested in the gold and the
most pragmatic. How could he possibly be
hallucinating a lost shipwreck if she was see­
ing it too?
For him, a cannon just made sense. It was
the last piece of a puzzle that his entire family
had been assembling for a hundred years,
never being able to see the full picture until
now. All the thousands of days when they had
scraped their nets across the seafloor, all those
times his father and grandfather had snagged
their nets, all the machines Joe had rigged up
to shoot video of his net in action, all the thou­
sands of hours he’d spent training his eyes to
pick out shapes and colors in that footage of
dark water — all that labor and pain had final­
ly wrenched this new fact from the bottom of
the ocean. Something big and man­made was
actually down there, Joe realized, and any
professor or shipwreck diver or treasure hunt­
er or lawyer who doubted him could bring his
own boat to this spot and see for himself.
As he and Joleen continued staring at the
screen, the Pioneer’s underwater gear drifted
dangerously close to the cannon­like object.
Joe quickly took the boat out of gear and
turned the wheel hard to starboard to avoid
getting snagged again.
The maneuver snapped him out of his rev­
erie. And suddenly, he realized something
awful: The GoPro cameras’ memory cards had
room for only 10 to 12 hours of footage. He and
Joleen had been searching for the wreck for
more than 20. The cameras had long stopped
recording. They hadn’t captured any video of
the huge cylinder.
For a few breathtaking minutes, the fisher­
man had seen a sunken ship. But he had no
way to prove it. All he had was a story.
The trip dissolved into more frustration and
bad comedy. Though Joe circled back for a Gabrielle Lurie / The Chronicle

and Mission streets. From the lobby, a re­
porter escorted them up to the third floor
and into the newspaper’s wood­paneled
meeting room, where another reporter and
an editor were waiting.
Joleen wore her hair in a ponytail fastened
with a yellow plastic zip tie. Joe was dressed
in a blue T­shirt, jeans and his crusty boots.
He said he was sorry if he stank of fish.
From a canvas bag, he pulled out his lap­
top and five ragged sheets of yellow paper
scrawled with his handwriting. They were
notes he had taken while watching his videos
of the ocean floor. The sheets were filled with
numbers indicating time stamps in the vid­
eos, and next to the numbers were scribbled
phrases noting what he thought he saw at
those spots: “solid shine,” “objects to check
out,” “BAR.”
“I wish I’d labeled this stuff better,” he
said, shuffling the sheets and spreading
them out on the meeting room’s long wooden
table.
With his laptop connected to the room’s
teleconferencing screen, Joe clicked on a clip
and pressed play. For the first time, the re­
porters watched several more of Joe’s videos.
By that point Joe had been talking with us
for more than a year and a half, ever since he
texted Tara Duggan out of the blue in Sep­
tember 2017 — “Do you want to see some­
thing that I found on the bottom of the ocean
with my camera” — and shared the picture
of what he’d decided was a gold bar. After
that, Joe had told his story little by little,
making time for interviews between fishing
trips and construction jobs. Talking to the
press was something he’d strictly avoided
during his pursuit of the treasure. But now,
after abandoning his quest, there was no
point in keeping the secret, he explained.
And maybe something good would come of
the publicity.
Maybe a rich or powerful person might
read his story and intervene. Maybe Donald
Trump, a famous gold aficionado, would call
up and offer assistance. Maybe Joe would
answer his phone one day and Elon Musk
would be on the line, offering to invest in an
expedition.
As Joe recounted his adventure over the
months, we worked to confirm the story,
reaching out to the divers and lawyers he
said he had met along the way. His story
checked out; although Joe sometimes conflat­
ed events or mixed up names, people remem­
bered meeting him and said he was telling
the truth. The only part that confused us had
to do with the GoPro videos — Joe’s evi­
dence.
Early on, he had shared one of the 18­
minute clips. We could easily make out the
obvious rectangular object — the thing that
looks like a gold brick — at the five­minute,
two­second mark. But Joe said he could
discern additional bars that appear later in
the video, and we couldn’t see them, no mat­
ter how many times we replayed the clip.
So we emailed the video to five indepen­
dent experts, including the shipwreck diver
John Chatterton, two other experienced
divers, a marine archaeologist and James

skepticism.

Every so often, he pressed the pause but­

could be treasure.
“See it?” he said, freezing on an image of a

How we reported ‘The Fisherman’s Secret’

The Chronicle’s Tara Duggan met fisherman Giuseppe “Joe” Pennisi in the course of reporting on the Bay Area’s seafood industry and fishing culture. In late
2017, he approached her with a secret he’d been holding onto for years. Since then, Duggan and fellow staff writer Jason Fagone dedicated more than eight
months to chronicling Pennisi’s story, accompanying him out to sea, interviewing dozens of sources, and examining historical records and court documents.
Chronicle photographer Santiago Mejia embedded with the fisherman and his family over the course of months, spending a pair of multiday fishing trips on
the Pioneer as well as many days on the dock, at the Pennisi home in Chico and at Glide Memorial in San Francisco.

Joe, in the captain’s chair of the Pioneer, says his decades of experience as a commercial fisherman give him intuition about what lies on the seafloor.
