That bill, Senate Bill 1, formally adds rising seas to the list
of issues to be addressed by the California Coastal Commis-

CEMETERY PROJECT
MARCHES FORWARD
By Alicia Robinson

A number of things still need
to happen before an Orange
County veterans cemetery can
be built at a county-owned site
in Gypsum Canyon, but sup-
porters of the project are con-
fident they can move the neces-
sary mountains to get it done.
They have the land — the
county has pledged half of
roughly 260 acres it owns south
of the 91 Freeway and just east
of the 241 toll road. The other
half will become badly needed

unanimously voted to back the
project, and about 160 veterans
groups have signed on.
And they have some fund-
ing — Orange County super-
visors have pledged $20 mil-
lion, and there’s $24 million in
state money that was set aside
when supporters were focused
on building in Irvine.
So what has to happen to get
shovels in the ground?
The state Department of Vet-
erans Affairs (known as Cal-
Vet) has to evaluate the site, be-
cause it will oversee construc-
tion and run the cemetery. But
first, “CalVet must receive the
funding and authority, typi-
cally through the legislative
process,” CalVet spokeswoman
Lindsey Sin said in an email.

Weather
FROM PAGE 3
Midway through the
song, the sun peeked back
out through the clouds as
people danced and sang
along.
The Inland Empire and
parts of Orange County
saw “torrential” rainfall
and pea-sized hail, accord-
ing to the National Weather
Service. A beach advisory
because of lightning was in
place in Orange County un-
til 7 p.m., said Ivory Small,
a meteorologist with the
National Weather Service.
“Some places will have
thunderstorms, other places
will just watch it from afar,”
he said, “because there won’t
be enough thunderstorms to
go around.”
Up to a half-inch of rain
was expected in some ar-
eas, with double that
amount in the mountains.
Forecasters advised folks
to watch out for flooding
during downpours.
None of this is unheard
of, a forecaster said, even in
the steamy month of Sep-
tember.
“Most of the time, (the
storms) don’t hold together
when they move west, but
every once in a while they
do,” said NWS meteorolo-
gist James Brotherton. “To-
day was one of those days
when we got quite a bit of
thunderstorm activity to-
ward the coast, when it
moved from the mountains
and deserts.”
Riverside began to see
some precipitation at
around noon Friday. Co-
rona was getting drenched
by midday, with heavy rain
also reported in Temecula.
Booming thunder could be
heard in Costa Mesa in the
afternoon. A Mission Viejo
intersection was briefly
deep with water in one so-
cial media post.

That could happen in the
new year. State Assembly-
man Steven Choi told veter-
ans and local officials who
came for a site tour Friday
that he’ll introduce a bill in
January to officially desig-
nate the Gypsum Canyon
location, and he’s looking to
get $5 million earmarked in
the budget to get the proj-
ect rolling.
Also, the city of Ana-
heim will need to run wa-
ter, power and sewer lines
to serve the property, city
spokesman Mike Lyster said.
The Orange County Cem-
etery District will arrange
the utility work and other
site preparation for both
the veterans cemetery and
the adjacent civilian ceme-
tery, which was already in
the works, and it will have
an environmental report
done, the district’s general
manager, Tim Deutsch, said.
Supporters also hope to
get federal funding for some
of the veterans cemetery,
but that will depend how
it ranks on a list of similar
projects around the country.
Until those steps can be
taken, the veterans ceme-
tery’s backers said they will
continue trying to build mo-
mentum for a project that’s
been talked about for years.
It got bogged down in Ir-
vine after which location
to choose became a politi-
cal battle.
As Choi put it Friday:
“Unfortunately in Irvine
there were many hurdles
which we never overcame.
Sadly, this led to no ceme-
tery being built.”
Guests at Friday’s event
were loaded into Hum-
vees and driven up a gravel
road to the top of the prop-
erty, which offered a sweep-
ing view of the surrounding
hills, the 91 Freeway below
and neighborhoods in the
hills on the other side.
“It is truly a breathtaking
place,” Choi told the small
crowd before the tour. “It is a
perfect final resting ground
for the many veterans who
have sacrificed so much for
our country and our free-
dom.”

expert small
wave riders
and some expert middle
size wave riders.
For instance, you have
guys like Greg Noll, who
was famous for fearlessly
riding giant waves, yet
was pretty much an av-
erage small wave rider.
On the other hand there
was the great East Coast
champion Gary Proper,
the dude could ride tiny
waves better than just
about anybody ever could.
But he did not like the big
ones.
There have also been
many surfers remembered
for certain parts of surf-
ing that they were really
good at.
Like David Nuuhiwa,
who was the greatest
noserider of the great
noseriding era of the
1960s. Barry Kanaiaupuni
was well-known for his
monster bottom turns at
Sunset Beach on the North
Shore.
Mike Purpus was well-
known to have “the best
cutback in the business.”
Billy Hamilton and Skip
Frye were both respected
to have extremely beau-
tiful surfing styles. Gerry
Lopez was the man when
it came to tube riding, and
in fact was dubbed “Mr
Pipeline,” taking the title
from the great Butch Van
Artsdalen.
There have also been
some who have been able
to ride anything thrown at
them well.
These are special hu-
man beings. Kelly Slater
would be one that immedi-
ately comes to mind.
From tiny Cocoa Beach
ankle snappers to giant
Waimea Bay waves, none
are problems for Slate.
Also on the dance card
in this category would
be guys such as Peter
Townend, Jock Suther-
land, John Peck, Michael
Ho, Reno Abellira, Rolf
Aurness and Jeff Hack-
man. There’s more, but my
space is limited here.
Taking this a step fur-
ther, there is an even
rarer breed of surfer that
could be classified as “All
Around Watermen.” These
are guys, who not only ex-
cel in all types of surfing
conditions, but also are
able to do other stuff.
The first ones that come
to mind would be George
Downing and Mike Doyle.
Both of these guys were
not only great surfers in
all kinds of conditions, but
they were also world class
paddle racers.
Doyle was known as
the “Iron Man,” or “Iron
Mike,” for his prowess in
surfing, paddling, dory
racing, body surfing and
swimming — all the life-
guard stuff. In the mid-
1960s, it was my opin-
ion that he was the great-
est big wave surfer going,
along with probably Eddie
Aikau. He also invented
the “mono ski,” which later
evolved into the “snow-
board.”
And then came Laird
Hamilton. This is the guy
who took the whole thing
into a totally different
world.
He is pretty much di-
rectly responsible for
bringing us tow-in surfing.
This opened up the ability
to ride waves much bigger
than ever before. Waves
too big to be able to pad-
dle a board into.
He also led us into both
stand up paddleboard
surfing and foil surfing.
Laird boldly went where
no one had gone before.
When they had vocabulary
in school, they never gave
him the word fear.
He had none of that.
And the latest surftro-
naut is the astonishing Kai
Lenny. At only 29 years
old, this guy has taken up
where Laird left off and
is going to whole new ex-
tremes in all phases of
surfing. He is a total ex-
pert as a surfer, stand-up
paddle surfer, stand- up
paddle racer, wind-surfer,
kite surfer, foil surfer and
probably any and all other
kinds of surfer that there
are.
I am in awe of the
dude. I see video of him
just shredding all kinds
of waves on all kinds of
equipment and it just
blows me away.
It’s one thing to be
good at one thing, but it’s
amazing to be an expert
in multiple things, all at
the same time. People like
Downing, Doyle, Hamilton
and Lenny are great ex-
amples of all-around wa-
termen who in their own
time, and own way, took
things to new levels.
I give them huge re-
spect.

hunting for waves, a dozen rid-
den between the two competi-
tors during the 30-minute heat.
But it was one critical 7-point
score that would punt Rapoza to
advance into the quarterfinals at
the big event.
“I’m insanely psyched. I feel
like I’m living up to my expec-
tations more,” Rapoza said. “It
feels really good, like I’m living
my dream.”
The list of remaining surfers
was whittled down Friday on
the south side of the Huntington
Beach Pier, with several locals
claimed victory to move into the
last two days of the event, with the
finals set for Sunday afternoon.
The day kicked off with the
women taking to the water,
greeted with clean conditions
but frustration as the tide grew
higher through the morning.
San Clemente surfer Caroline
Marks got an early start, posting
a 5.17 with a right-hander, but she
was forced to wait patiently un-
til the back end of the heat to get
a second score, which put her in
the lead against Australia’s Dim-
“It’s a beautiful morning, the
waves are a little tricky out here
but stoked to come out on top,”
said Marks, an Olympian who
joined the sport’s debut in Ja-
pan over the summer.
“I think it’s a completely differ-
ent swell today. It seems like it’s
kind of your typical south swell
in Huntington, longer lulls but
when they come, it’s super fun.”
San Clemente’s Sawyer Lind-
blad blasted through her heat
with an 11.67, edging past Aus-
tralia’s Macy Callaghan, who had
a 10.93.
Santa Ana’s Courtney Con-
logue wasted no time in her
heat, pumping her board near
the pier pilings and pulling huge
airs on the inside section. Half-
way through the heat, Courtney
got a steep wave, again next to
the pier, giving spectators above
something to cheer for, using
huge turns on a steep wave to
earn another solid score to over-
take her opponent.
The waves slowed down so
much that when the men took
to the water, they had to restart
the clock after 10 minutes of no
waves.
But the ocean instantly turned
on when Andino, Gudauskas and
Rapoza hit the water, with non-
stop action throughout the heat,
all the surfers taking to the air
above the lip and doing big turns
on a flurry of waves.
On Rapoza’s 7-point score that
edged Gudauskas down to the
third spot, he did a big layback
and followed with a blow-tail re-
verse on the inside, prompting
cheers on the sand as he clenched
his fists in elation.
Gudauskas scratched for a
wave just as the buzzer sounded,
finishing with a stylish floater at
the end — but the score fell just
shy of what he needed to ad-
vance.

has surfed the U.S. Open, he was
knocked out in the first round. So
his latest heat win is the best re-
sult yet for him in the event.
“It’s definitely tricky trying to
tell yourself in your mind you can
beat these guys because you’ve
looked up to them your whole
life, but the whole time I told my-
self I’m worth it and I can beat
these guys and I have to beat
these guys to get where I want
to be,” Rapoza said.
The last-second wave worked
for Griffin Colapinto during his
heat, where the San Clemente
surfer found himself in third spot
and in jeopardy as the seconds
ticked down.
clock, Colapinto threw two big
moves and finished the wave
strong on the inside — earning
an 8, the highest score of the
heat, taking top spot and advanc-
ing to the next round.
The U.S. Open of Surfing has
big implications for surfers hop-
ing to join the rankings of the
world’s best; it is the first of four
Challenger Series events hosted
by the World Surf League offer-
ing big points toward qualifica-
tion for the world tour.
The U.S. Open of Surfing is one
of four stops, the next going to
Portugal, then France and the fi-
nal event is in Hawaii.
San Clemente’s Cole Housh-
mand and Huntington Beach’s
Kanoa Igarashi, a two-time U.S.
Open of Surfing champ, both
advanced in the same heat after
taking the top two spots. Kade
Matson, also from San Clemente,
also won his heat to advance.
For Rapoza, advancing Friday
gets him closer to his goal of join-
ing the world’s best.
“It would be insane, I’m feel-
ing closer and closer to qualify-
ing with each result,” he said. “If
I can make it through to the fi-
nals day, it will make me com-
fortable for the rest of the year.”

LAW ENFORCEMENT ACURA GRAND PRIX OF LONG BEACH

FBI urges victims to

report hate crimes OFF TO THE RACES
after incidents surge From staff reports

Long Beach’s marquee

By Brian Rokos
brokos@scng.com
The FBI has launched a
nationwide campaign to
encourage victims of hate
crimes to report the inci-
dents to federal authori-
ties.
The Los Angeles field of-
fice, which covers Los An-
geles, Orange, Riverside,
San Bernardino and three
other counties, is partic-
ipating in the multilan-
guage outreach at a time
when Orange County au-
thorities are reporting an
increase in anti-Asian hate
crimes and discriminatory
incidents.
The FBI is the lead in-
vestigative agency for
criminal violations of
federal civil rights stat-
utes. The FBI defines a
hate crime as a “crimi-
nal offense against a per-
son or property motivated
in whole or in part by an
offender’s bias against a
race, religion, disability,
sexual orientation, ethnic-
ity, gender or gender iden-
tity.”
Kristi Johnson, the as-
sistant director in charge
of the Los Angeles office,
said that offenses against
a person because of polit-
ical ideology are not con-
sidered hate crimes.
The motivation for the
campaign, Johnson said,
is not because victims are
afraid to report crimes or
other barriers.
“They don’t know to ac-
tually call,” she said in an
interview.
The FBI is reaching
out via social media, bill-
boards, signs on transit
buses, gas station video
monitors and other ave-
nues.
Hate crimes can be re-
ported to 800-225-5324 or
tips.fbi.gov.
from five the year before,
according to a commission
report released this month.
The number of hate inci-
dents against Asians in-
creased to 76 from four —
an increase of 1,800%.
OC District Attorney
Todd Spitzer attributed the
increase to a nationwide
backlash against Asians
after the coronavirus orig-
inated in China.
“I will not tolerate and
will punish all criminal
haters. At every turn, I
have encouraged more
people to come forward
to report hate crimes,”
Spitzer said in a news re-
lease Friday in which
he announced charges
against a man in two sep-
arate hate crime cases.
The Orange County
Sheriff’s Department re-
ported seven hate crimes
in 2020, including four
against Jewish people, af-
ter nine total in 2019; Gar-
den Grove police reported
nine hate crimes, includ-
ing four against Buddhists,
after three in 2019; and Ir-
vine police reported seven
hate crimes, including four
against Black people, the
same total as in 2019. Ana-
heim police said no activ-
ity took place in 2020 that
met the specific FBI guide-
lines for categorizing an
incident as a hate crime.
Anaheim also reported no
hate crimes in 2019.
The Los Angeles Police
Department reported 368
hate crimes in 2020, in-
cluding 82 against Blacks,
up from 285 total in 2019.
The L.A. County Sheriff’s
Department reported 26 in
its patrol area in 2020, in-
cluding 12 against Blacks,
after reporting 15 in 2019.
T he San Bernardino
County Sheriff’s Depart-
ment reported six hate
crimes in 2020, including
event is off to the races.
The three-day Acura
Grand Prix of Long Beach
got underway Friday, with
hundreds of folks filtering
into the concourse in the
city’s downtown, enjoy-
ing libations and gourmet
food, ambling through the
lifestyle expo and sitting

HEALTHY LIVING SPOTLIGHT
All in the family: Emerald Court associate learned the
value of hard work and a smile from his mom
One could say that PABLO
GONZALEZ grew up at Emerald
Court. Not only has the Anaheim native
worked in various positions at the Kisco
Senior Living community since he was a
teenager, but his mother, Rufina Claudio,
worked at Emerald Court, too, until
recently retiring after 31 years there.
“When I come here it doesn’t feel like
a job, it’s always felt like a second home,”
says Gonzalez. He remembers attending
Emerald Court holiday parties and events
with his mother since childhood. “I take
pride in that. My co-workers and the
residents here are like family.”
Gonzalez oversees a staff of 14
maintenance workers and housekeepers
— teammates, he says, who have
supported him through his journey from
dining room worker and supervisor to
lead customer service representative and
now, as environmental services director.
It’s that closeness Gonzalez has
developed with his Emerald Court family
that motivates him to go the extra mile,
not only ensuring the safety and security
of each resident but making sure new
residents feel welcomed. “I try to ease
that stress when they get here. I tell them
this is like my home, and you’re in a good
place.”
Gonzalez’s philosophy exemplifies
the Kisco Confidence® promise of
providing safety and security, trust and
transparency, health and wellbeing with
a 5-star lifestyle experience. Enhanced
safety protocols include ongoing high-
touch, high-surface cleaning throughout
the day, controlled access points and
single-point entry where possible to keep

residents and associates safe.
Gonzales makes daily rounds to ensure
the building’s equipment is working
properly, including gates, exterior door
locks, and cameras in common areas,
hallways and parking lots — always with
his trademark smile.
“When you love what you do and you
know what you’re doing, it’s easy to do
your job,” he says.
Gonzalez’s journey as a Kisco associate
began when he was hired just out of high
school by Emerald Court’s chef Tony to
work in the dining room. After three
years in that role, he was promoted to
dining room supervisor at another Kisco
community. During that time, Gonzalez
enrolled in an ROP program and earned a
certificate in accounting.
Soon after that, he learned there was
an opening to work on the front desk
at Emerald Court as a customer service
representative. Perhaps it was kismet, or
maybe it was his innate ability to work
well with others, but Gonzalez got the
job.
“WHEN YOU LOVE WHAT YOU DO AND YOU KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING, IT’S EASY TO DO YOUR JOB,” GONZALEZ SAYS.
“Just by luck, I interviewed the day
they were going to offer somebody
else the job,” he says. “That started my
journey at the front desk.”
Gonzalez shined as “the face of
Emerald Court,” and reveled in the
opportunity to be of service to residents
and visitors. “I love being here, so it
wasn’t hard to smile every day. It was
already home to me, and it was a nice
step in my journey here.”
That attitude has served Gonzalez well
over the course of his 19-year career with
Kisco. He credits his mom for instilling
a strong work ethic and leading by
example, something he as a leader tries to
demonstrate every day.
“She told me ‘When you step through
that door at Emerald Court, you put
on a smile, you come in, you focus, be
professional and do your job,” Gonzalez
says. “’As soon as you step through that
door, it’s about working here and it’s
about the residents.’ That was my mom.”
Gonzalez took a giant step in his
career when he was promoted to lead
Emerald Court.
The place for 5-star
lifestyle and service.

customer service rep, which brought
greater responsibility. While in his role
as CSR, he learned firsthand the secret to
success in any customer-facing position:
patience. “That’s the key when you work
at the desk: patience and that if I didn’t
have the answer, I could find somebody
who did,” he says.
Gonzalez says the support of his
teammates has been crucial. “Without
my maintenance and housekeeping
team, this place wouldn’t run,” he says.
“Knowing I had that team in place, I
knew I could succeed in this role.”
It was that team that encouraged
Gonzalez to apply for the environmental
services director position. He applied
twice; the Emerald Court executive
leadership team knew his potential but
the timing wasn’t quite right.
The third time he applied, he got the
job.
For his efforts, Gonzalez recently
earned Kisco’s Tanzanite Award,
bestowed to employees who exemplify
Kisco’s principles, values and beliefs.

urged those now eligible for
an extra shot to “go get the
booster,” saying he’d get his
own soon — and that every-
one should be patient and
wait their turn.
CDC advisory
Exactly who should get
a booster was a conten-
tious decision as CDC advis-
ers spent two days poring
over the evidence. Walen-
sky endorsed most of their
choices: People 65 and
older, nursing home resi-
dents and those ages 50 to
64 who have chronic health
problems such as diabetes
dehydrated and needed
medical help.
During an inter view
with Cal Fire and law en-
forcement, officers came
to believe Souverneva was
responsible for setting the
fire, officials said. She was
booked into the Shasta
County Jail. It wasn’t im-
mediately known if she
has an attorney.
Souverneva, who had a
lighter in her pocket when
she approached firefight-

with felony arson to wild-

The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints church
leaders recently issued their

urging people to “limit the

vaccines and wearing masks.
“Our faith leaders have

people say, ‘This is a hoax,
it doesn’t matter, it’s not

Mormon leaders ramp up vaccine

push, which divides faith’s members
By Sophia Eppolito
The Associated Press/Report for America
SALT LAKE CITY >> After more than a year of
attending church virtually, Monique Allen
has struggled to explain to her asthmatic
daughter why people from their congrega-
tion of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-
day Saints don’t wear masks. Allen said she
has taught her daughter that wearing a mask
is Christlike, but now she worries her child
feels like an outcast.
Church leaders recently issued their stron-
gest statement yet urging people to “limit the
spread” by getting COVID-19 vaccines and
wearing masks. But Allen said she fears it’s
still not enough to convince the many fami-
lies in her congregation who refuse to wear
masks and have succumbed to anti-vaccine
misinformation.
Members of the faith widely known as
the Mormon church remain deeply divided
on vaccines and mask-wearing despite con-
sistent guidance from church leaders as the
highly contagious delta variant of the coro-
navirus spreads.
About 65% of Latter-day Saints who re-
sponded to a recent survey said they were
vaccine acceptors, meaning they’ve gotten
at least one dose or plan to soon. Another
15% identified as hesitant, and 19% said they
would not get the vaccine, according to the
survey this summer from the Public Religion
Research Institute.
The survey found 79% of white Catholics
and 56% of white Evangelical Protestants
identified as vaccine acceptors.
Allen, a church member living in Wiscon-
sin, is among a contingent who fear fellow
members who refuse to get vaccinated are al-
lowing their political views to supersede their
loyalty to a faith that largely prioritizes unity
and obedience.
The message she has shared with her
8-year-old daughter is that “of course Christ
would wear a mask, of course he would get
vaccinated because he’s a loving person,” she
said. “And that’s the only way you can take
care of people these days is doing these sim-
ple things.”
Other church members are upset that their
leaders aren’t letting them exercise their own
decision-making about vaccines and masks.
The Utah-based religion of 16 million mem-
bers worldwide is one of many faiths grap-
pling with how best to navigate the pandem-
ic’s lingering effects.
Divisions on masking and vaccinations in
the Latter-day Saint faith appear to be track-
ing along political lines, with conservative
members being more hesitant, said Patrick
Mason, associate professor of religion at Utah
State University. Mason said the church’s di-
vide is indicative of a larger pattern in the
United States of political ideologies shaping
people’s religious commitments.
“The common perception of Mormons
and Mormonism is that when church lead-
ers speak, church members listen and do
what they’re told,” said Mason. “This has re-
vealed sometimes how conditional that loy-
alty can be.”
The Latter-day Saint faith was one of the
first to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In March 2020, church leaders suspended all
church gatherings and closed temples. The
church has also held three consecutive ma-
jor conferences remotely since the pandemic
began.
The twice-yearly conference usually brings
about 100,000 people to Salt Lake City over
two days.
Many faith leaders have spoken in support
of vaccinations, including Church President
Russell M. Nelson, a former heart surgeon
who got the vaccine in January and encour-
aged members to follow his example.
Church-owned Brigham Young University
in Utah has asked students to report their
vaccination status but is not requiring vac-
cinations. Masks are required in classrooms
and any indoor spaces where social distanc-
ing isn’t possible.
Missionaries who are not fully vaccinated
are also unable to receive an assignment out-
side of their home country.
Regarding masks at services, top church
officials have said it’s up to bishops to en-
courage people to follow local public health
guidelines.
In mid-August, they went so far as to re-
lease a statement calling on members to get
the vaccine, which they described as “safe
and effective.”
Among other denominations in the U.S.,
faith leaders have varied widely in how they
address the issues of vaccinations and mask
wearing. To a large extent, there has been vo-
cal support for getting vaccinated — includ-
ing from top leadership of conservative bod-
ies such as the Southern Baptist Convention
and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops.
However, some Catholic prelates and evan-
gelical pastors have been sharply critical of
the the vaccine campaign and masking man-
dates, and others have shied away from ad-
dressing those issues for fear of angering
some congregation members.
An August AP-NORC poll found that
among white evangelicals, 51% are at least
somewhat confident in the vaccines to be ef-
fective against variants, compared with 73%
of Catholics, 66% of white mainline Protes-
tants such as Presbyterians and Lutherans,
65% of nonwhite Protestants and 67% of the
religiously unaffiliated.
Some Latter-day Saints have accused those
who promote anti-vaccine rhetoric of apos-
tasy, a term that is associated with wicked-
ness and describes when individuals turn
away from church principles.
Kristen Chevrier, co-founder of a Utah-
based health freedom group that has ad-
vocated against vaccine mandates, said the
church should not be involved in health
choices, and she worries people are being
discriminated against based on their vac-
cine status.
Chevrier, who is a member of the faith, said
she rejects the idea that people who are anti-
vaccine are apostates. She cited the church’s
history of encouraging members to seek their
own personal revelations with God.
“How can we say that there’s a blanket
statement that applies to everyone regardless
of their personal revelation,” said Chevrier,
who’s based in American Fork, about 30 miles
(50 kilometers) south of Salt Lake City.
Many members have voiced concerns on
social media that pro-mask and pro-vac-
cine sentiments aren’t shared by all regional
church leadership, with some describing their
experiences as “bishop roulette.”
Unmasked bishops at an Idaho church
read the statement from top church officials
to the congregation, but only a few chose to
start wearing masks.
One member, Marie Johnson, said she has
been disappointed that so many in her com-
munity have heeded misinformation on so-
cial media rather than church leadership’s
continued calls for vaccination.
“You can find something on the internet
to support any position you want to take,”
said Johnson. “Why would you choose the
side that doesn’t include your faith leader?”
But some churches began resuming mask-
ing practices even before the leaders’ state-
ment.
One Salt Lake City church has been en-
couraging vulnerable people to participate in
meetings virtually and sent a message to con-
gregants in early August recommending that
everyone wear masks and get the vaccine.
“Our faith leaders have been so consistent
from the very beginning,” said Søren Simon-
sen, of Salt Lake City.
“And to hear people say, ‘This is a hoax, it
doesn’t matter, it’s not affecting us,’ when mil-
lions of people have died, it’s heartbreaking.”

was 92.
Her death was confirmed
by her executor and friend,
Erin Rogers.
Armed with only a high
school diploma, Diether not
only mastered the intrica-
cies of zoning; she also taught
classes on zoning law at the
City University of New York.
She challenged a decision
by Robert Moses, the city’s
powerful parks commis-
sioner, to effectively end Jo-
seph Papp’s Shakespeare Fes-
tival productions in Central
Park. (The productions had
been and have remained
free; Moses wanted to impose
an admission fee on the pro-
ductions, with a percentage
earmarked for park mainte-
nance, which Papp resisted.)
Her challenge to Moses
was her introduction to civic
engagement. It led to collabo-
rations in the late 1950s with
the visionary urbanist Jane
Jacobs and others who re-
sisted Moses’ proposals one
to route buses through Wash-
ington Square Park and an-
other to exclude musicians
from the park because of
residents’ complaints about
noise.
“I was in awe of her be-
ing the longest-serving com-
munity board member still
participating, advocating and
focusing on her community,”
Gale Brewer, the Manhattan
borough president, said by
email.
In 1985, Diether and other
Village activists managed to
eliminate the last vestige of
Verrazano Street, a thorough-
fare for which backyards and
buildings on Downing, Hous-
ton and Bedford streets had
been acquired by the city in
1952 to build an approach to
what was supposed to be the
Lower Manhattan Express-
way a project ultimately
doomed by the outcry over
Moses’ bulldozer diplomacy.
Diether’s “activism gave
our community its legend-
ary reputation for vibrant
community engagement and
she did it all with love,” Co-
rey Johnson, the City Coun-
cil speaker, wrote on Twitter.
Her advice to beginning
crusaders was simple: “Listen

MARVEL COPYRIGHT LAWSUITS
By Brooks Barnes
The New York Times
Moving to defend its Marvel su-
perhero franchises, the Walt Dis-
ney Co. on Friday filed a flurry
of lawsuits seeking to invalidate
copyright termination notices
served by artists and illustrators
involved with marquee charac-
ters like Iron Man, Spider-Man
and Thor.
Daniel M. Petrocelli, a high-
powered Los Angeles litigator,
filed the complaints on Disney’s
behalf in federal courts in New
York and California.
The dispute started in the
spring when a prominent intellec-
tual property lawyer, Marc Tober-
off, served Marvel Entertainment,
which is owned by Disney, with
notices of copyright termination
on behalf of five clients. They in-
clude Lawrence D. Lieber, 89, a
comics writer and artist known
for his 1960s-era contributions
to bedrock Marvel characters. Li-
eber’s older brother, Stan Lee, was
chief writer and editor of Marvel
Comics. Lee died in 2018.
Toberoff’s other clients are the
estates of comics illustrators Steve
Ditko and Don Heck, and heirs of

Delta wants no-fly list
for unruly passengers
Company is urging
other airlines to join
unified ban to protect
industry employees
By Heather Murphy
The New York Times
Delta Air Lines is urging air-
lines to respond to the extraordi-
nary surge in unruly behavior in
the skies by creating a national
“no fly” list of barred customers,
according to a memo sent to flight
attendants Wednesday.
Delta already has more than
1,600 people on its own “no fly”
list, according to the memo.
“We’ve also asked other air-
lines to share their ‘no fly’ list to
further protect airline employees
across the industry something we
know is top of mind for you as
well,” wrote Kristen Manion Tay-
lor, Delta’s senior vice president of
in-flight services. “A list of banned
customers doesn’t work as well if

They are seeking to reclaim rights
related to the Marvel characters
they had a hand in creating, in-
cluding Doctor Strange, Black
Widow, Hawkeye, Captain Mar-
vel, Falcon, Blade and the Wiz-
ard several of which have become
star revenue generators for Dis-
ney, appearing in films and tele-
vision shows, along with a pleth-
ora of merchandise.
The reclamation attempts stem
from a provision of copyright law
that customer can fly with an-
other airline.”
This list would be different
from the long-standing govern-
ment No-Fly List, which passen-
gers may already be familiar with.
That list was created to thwart
terrorism and is maintained by
the FBI, not airlines, a spokes-
person for the Federal Aviation
Administration said. (Inclusion
on that list may not only keep a
person off a plane but also block
noncitizens from entering the
United States, among other con-
sequences.)
The Delta memo did not in-
clude criteria for the airline’s “no
fly” list, but referred to an up-
coming hearing in the House on
Thursday on air rage in the skies.
During the hearing, Sara Nel-
son, the president of the Associa-
tion of Flight Attendants union,
testified that the FAA had logged
4,284 “unruly passenger reports”
since January. About three-quar-
ters of them were related to wear-
ing masks on planes, she said;
61% of disruptive passengers also

Cryptocurrency crackdown Police: Grocery store gunman

continues; transactions illegal
BEIJING >> China intensified its crack-
down on cryptocurrency Friday, de-
claring all financial transactions in-
volving cryptocurrencies illegal and
issuing a nationwide ban on cryp-
tocurrency mining, the process in
which vast computer networks com-
pete for newly created crypto tokens.
Bitcoin, the world’s largest crypto-
currency, dropped as much as 7%, to
around $41,100, on the news.
The clampdown in China comes
as the country’s central bank has
been testing its own digital cur-
rency, the electronic Chinese yuan. A
notice posted by the central bank ex-
plicitly called out Bitcoin and Ether,
the two most popular cryptocurren
for being issued by “nonmonetary
authorities.” George Selgin, an econ-
omist and senior fellow at the Cato
Institute, said that creating a central
bank digital currency and making
crypto transactions illegal were part
of the Chinese government’s broader
effort to channel citizens away from
private financial services providers.

ARIZONA FEDERAL BUDGET ELECTION 2022 SUMMIT

On futher review, GOP audit
draft confirms Biden won state
PHOENIX >> A draft report of the
election review in Arizona’s larg-
est county by supporters of former
President Donald Trump found that
President Joe Biden did indeed win
the 2020 presidential contest there,
an embarrassing end to a bizarre
quest to find evidence supporting
Trump’s false claim that he lost be-
cause of fraud.
The final report was scheduled to
be released Friday afternoon, the re-
sult of a monthslong partisan review
funded in part by taxpayers. The
draft document began to circulate
Thursday night showing the results
of the review’s chaotic hand count
of all 2.1 million ballots in Maricopa
County, home to Phoenix. The tally
in the draft showed a net gain of 360
votes for Biden over the official re-
sults. The Maricopa County Attor-
ney’s office provided the draft. Re-
publican Senate President Karen
Fann said the document was “a
leaked draft from three days ago,”
but did not dispute its authenticity.

Biden: Budget talks for
$3.5T bill hit a ‘stalemate’
WASHINGTON >> President Joe Biden
said Friday that talks over his $3.5
trillion rebuilding plan have hit a
“stalemate” in Congress as he made
the case for his expansive effort to
recast the nation’s tax and spending
programs and make what he sees as
sweeping, overdue investments.
Biden spoke at the White House
as Democrats in the House and Sen-
ate are laboring to finish drafts and
overcome differences between the
party’s centrist and moderate fac-
tions. Despite efforts by the presi-
dent and congressional leaders to
show progress, Biden cast the road
ahead as long and potentially cum-
bersome, even with upcoming dead-
lines.
“We’re getting down to the hard
spot here,” Biden told reporters at
the White House. “We’re at this
stalemate at the moment.”
Biden said the process is “going to
be up and down” but “hopefully at
the end of the day I’ll be able to de-
liver on what I said I would do.”

Iowa GOP Sen. Grassley, 88,
seeking reelection for 8th term
DES MOINES, IOWA >> Iowa Sen. Chuck
Grassley, the longest-serving Repub-
lican senator, said Friday that he will
seek an eighth term in 2022, giving
the party more confidence in holding
the seat as it fights to overtake Dem-
ocrats’ one-vote margin.
The senator, who turned 88 this
month and has held the seat for 40
years, said in an announcement
posted on Twitter that there is “a lot
more to do, for Iowa.”
Although Iowa has leaned Repub-
lican over the past decade, Grass-
ley’s decision now allows GOP Sen-
ate strategists more time and money
to concentrate on key seats being va-
cated by retiring Republican sen-
ators in Ohio, Pennsylvania and
North Carolina.
Grassley waited much longer than
usual to announce his plans. He typ-
ically announces his intentions to
run for another term when declaring
victory on election night. This year,
he took his time to weigh the obvi-
ous factor of his advanced age.

Biden hosts Indo-Pacific
leaders amid China concerns
WASHINGTON >> Meeting with the
leaders of India, Australia and Ja-
pan, President Joe Biden declared
Friday that the U.S. and other mem-
bers of the Indo-Pacific alliance
known as the Quad are showing
they “know how to get things done”
in an increasingly complicated cor-
ner of the globe.
Biden and his fellow leaders—
Australian Prime Minister Scott
Morrison, Indian Prime Minister Na-
rendra Modi and Japanese Prime
Minister Yoshihide Suga — all are
grappling with a rising China that
Biden has accused of coercive eco-
nomic practices and unsettling mili-
tary maneuvering.
On broader issues, Biden repeat-
edly has made a case that the U.S.
and likeminded allies need to deliver
results on the COVID-19 pandemic,
climate change and other fundamen-
tal matters with the world in what
he’s deemed a race between democ-
racies and autocracies.

cans to get at least one fi-
nancial document on paper:
their annual Social Security
statement.
Until a decade ago, the
federal Social Security Ad-
ministration mailed state-
ments each year to mil-
lions of workers, shortly
before their birthdays. The
statements contain a year-
by-year ledger of their an-
nual earnings as well as es-
timates of their monthly
check in retirement.
The mailings had begun
years earlier through the ef-
forts of Sen. Daniel Patrick
Moynihan. He considered
the mailings an important
tool to educate the public.
But to cut costs, the So-
cial Security Administra-
tion instead began encour-
aging people to obtain their
statements online. Now a
smaller pool of people —
those 60 or older who are
not yet receiving benefits
and who have not set up
digital mySocialSecurity ac-
counts — automatically re-
ceive annual statements in
the mail. (Paper statements
are still available by special
request.)
In fiscal 2018, 17 mil-
lion of the 39 million peo-
ple with mySocialSecurity
accounts logged on to see
their online statement, the
Social Security Adminis-
tration’s inspector general
reported. And of the 180
million people paying into
the Social Security system,
about 140 million are not
seeing their annual state-
ments, according to House
supporters of the push.
protests on campuses
By John Hanna and
Summer Ballentine
The Associated Press
TOPEKA, KAN. >> Reported
sex ual a ssaults have
sparked large protests on
college campuses in at least
seven states just weeks into
the new school year, which
advocates say reflects both
a greater vulnerability
among students who spent
last school year learning re-
motely and a greater abil-
ity among young people to
make themselves heard on
the issue.
Such protests aren’t new,
but there seems to have
been an unusually large
number already this se-
mester, with demonstra-
tions over the past month
at schools in Nebraska,
Iowa, Kansas, Alabama,
Michigan, Massachusetts
and Missouri. Protesters
have accused their schools
of doing too little to protect
students and being too le-
nient with the accused.
T hose pushing for
tougher measures against
sexual violence also say
the protests are being led
by students familiar with
the #MeToo movement
and cases like that of for-
mer USA Gymnastics team
doctor Larry Nassar and
Bill Cosby. And they say a
protest on one campus in-
spires them on others.
“It is this national push
that we’re starting to see
for accountability of col-
leges,” said Tracey Vitch-
ers, executive director of
It’s On Us, a nonprofit fo-
cused on building a move-
ment to combat sexual vi-
olence on campuses.
More than half of sex-
ual assaults against stu-
dents occur between the
start of fall classes and the
Thanksgiving break, and
generally freshmen and
transfer students are the
most vulnerable to sexual
assault because they aren’t
familiar with the campuses
and haven’t solidified their
social networks. Victims’
advocates call the period
the red zone.
“We’re in a period of a
double red zone,” said Shi-
wali Patel, senior counsel
for the National Women’s
Law Center, who also di-
rects its efforts to provide
justice for assault survi-
vors.
“We have the first-year
students and the second-
year students who are now
being on campus for the
first time.”
The wave of protests
started after a student re-
ported being sexually as-
saulted at a University Ne-
braska-Lincoln fraternity
house just before midnight
Aug. 24. Police received a
separate report about a
“wild party” there.
The following night,
about 1,000 protesters
surrounded the fraternity
house. Police are investi-
gating the assault report
and the university tempo-
rarily suspended the frater-
nity’s operations as it re-
views the group’s conduct.
Protests at the Univer-
sity of Iowa began less than
a week later against a chap-
ter of the same fraternity
over a year-old allegation
of sexual assault that au-
thorities are still investi-
gating.
In Kansas, students pro-
tested at the University of
Kansas, Wichita State Uni-
versity and Topeka West
High School last week over
various reported assaults,
and students at Auburn
University in Alabama and
Eastern Michigan Univer-
sity also staged demonstra-
tions. Protests this week in-
cluded one at the Univer-
sity of Massachusetts in
Amherst.
from last Saturday, when
the number peaked as mi-
grants driven by confusion
over the Biden adminis-
tration’s policies and mis-
information on social me-
dia converged at the bor-
der crossing connecting
Del Rio, Texas, and Ciu-
dad Acuña, Mexico.
At a news conference,
Del Rio Mayor Buno Loz-
ano called it “phenomenal
news.”
Many face expulsion be-
cause they are not covered
by protections recently ex-
tended by the Biden ad-
ministration to the more
than 100,000 Haitian mi-
grants already in the U.S.,
citing security concerns
and social unrest in the
Western Hemisphere’s
poorest country. The dev-
astating 2020 earthquake
forced many of them from
their homeland.
The United States and
Mexico appeared eager to
end the increasingly polit-
icized humanitarian situa-
tion that prompted the res-
ignation of the U.S. special
envoy to Haiti and wide-
spread outrage after im-
ages emerged of border
agents maneuvering their
horses to forcibly block
and move migrants.
On Friday, President
Joe Biden said the way the
agents used their horses
was “horrible” and that
“people will pay” as a re-
sult. The agents have been
assigned to administrative
duties while the adminis-
tration investigates.

quences,” Biden told re-
porters. “It’s an embarrass-
ment, but it’s beyond an
embarrassment — it’s dan-
gerous, it’s wrong, it sends
the wrong message around
the world and sends the
wrong message at home.
It’s simply not who we are.”
Meanwhile, Homeland
Security officials said
about 2,000 Haitians have
been rapidly expelled on 17
flights since Sunday and
more could be expelled.
Department of Home-
land Security Secretary
Alejandro Mayorkas said
Friday that the U.S. has
allowed about 12,400 to
enter the country, at least
temporarily, while they
make claims before an im-
migration judge to stay in
the country under the asy-
lum laws or for some other
legal reason. They could
ultimately be denied and
would be subject to re-
moval.
Mayorkas said nearly
30,000 migrants have been
encountered by the Border
Patrol in the Del Rio sector
since Sept. 9, with the max-
imum at one time reach-
ing 15,000. He said about
8,000 migrants “have de-
cided to return to Mex-
ico voluntarily,” and about
5,000 are in DHS custody
and being processed to de-
termine whether they will
be expelled or allowed to
press their claim for legal
residency.

PG&E charged in wildfire last year that killed 4

By Olga R. Rodriguez
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO >> Pacific
Gas & Electric was charged
Friday with involuntary
manslaughter and other
crimes after its equipment
sparked a Northern Califor-
nia wildfire that killed four
people and destroyed hun-
dreds of homes last year,
prosecutors said.
It is the latest legal action
against the nation’s largest
utility, which pleaded guilty
last year to 84 counts of in-
voluntary manslaughter in
a 2018 blaze ignited by its
long-neglected electrical
grid that nearly destroyed
the town of Paradise and
became the deadliest U.S.
wildfire in a century.
Shasta Count y Dis-
trict Attorney Stephanie
Bridgett announced the 31
charges, including 11 felo-
nies, against PG&E, saying
it failed to perform its legal
duties and that its “failure
was reckless and criminally
negligent, and it resulted in
the death of four people.”
If the utility is convicted
of involuntary manslaugh-
ter, the punishment would
be a fine for each person

State orders more insurance

options for wildfire areas Limited Time Offer
40 %
off

By The Associated Press
SACRAMENTO >> California
Insurance Commissioner
Ricardo Lara has ordered
the state’s “insurer of last
resort” to offer more com-
prehensive coverage for
homeowners who can’t buy
private insurance because
they live in areas threat-
ened by wildfires.
The California Fair Ac-
cess to Insurance Require-
ments Plan, known as the
FAIR Plan, sells insurance
to homeowners who can’t
purchase it through no
fault of their own.
The plan is mandated by
state law and funded by in-
surance companies.
Most of the FAIR Plan’s
coverage only applies to
damage from fires and
other disasters.
But Lara wants them to
cover other things, too, like
water damage and theft.
The FAIR Plan Associa-
tion sued, arguing state
law only requires them to
provide “basic property in-
surance.”
In July, a state judge
ruled Lara had the au-
thority to order the FAIR
Plan to offer the additional
coverage. The court asked
Lara to issue a new order
with some changes about
liability. On Friday, Lara is-
sued that new order.

CALIFORNIA

Capitol to replace toppled statue with memorial to tribes

By Adam Beam
The Associated Press
SACRAMENTO >> More than a
year after protesters toppled
a statue of a Spanish mis-
sionary on the grounds of
the California Capitol, Gov.
Gavin Newsom signed a law
on Friday to replace it with a
memorial for the state’s Na-
tive Americans.
A statue of Father Juni-
pero Serra had stood in Cap-
itol Park since 1967. He was
a Roman Catholic priest who
established a string of mis-
sions from San Diego to San
Francisco in the late 1700s
and used them as centers to
convert members of nearby
tribes to Christianity.
But many natives were
forced to live and work at
the missions and subjected
to beatings and other abuse.
Thousands died.
Serra was given sainthood
by Pope Francis in 2015, a
controversial decision that
brought sharp criticism from
those who see Serra as a co-
lonialist who destroyed Na-
tive American tribes and
their cultures.
Last summer, the murder
of George Floyd by a Minne-
sota police officer prompted
nationwide protests over
racial injustice. On July 4,
2020, protesters tore down
the Serra statue on the Cap-
itol grounds. Protesters also

tore down Serra statues in
San Francisco and Los An-
geles.
Assemblyman James
Ramos, a Democrat from
Highland and a member of
the Serrano/Cahuilla tribe,
authored a bill to replace
the statue on the Capitol
grounds with a memorial
for Native Americans in the
Sacramento area. It’s one of
several laws Newsom signed
on Friday dealing with Na-
tive American issues.
“Today’s action sends a
powerful message from the
grounds of Capitol Park

ing the state’s commitment

wrote.
The law allows tribal na-
tions to plan, construct and
maintain the monument. But
it could be awhile before the
monument is built.
The law says the tribes
need permission from the
Joint Rules Committee be-
fore they can begin construc-
tion. The committee has im-
posed an unofficial mora-
torium on new memorials
until the Department of Gen-
eral Services develops a mas-
ter plan for the Capitol Park
grounds, according to a legis-
lative analysis of the law.
Capitol Park contains at
least 12 memorials, includ-
ing ones honoring veterans
and firefighters. Last year,
state officials removed a
statue from the rotunda of
the Capitol depicting Chris-
topher Columbus. The statue
had been the centerpiece of
the rotunda since 1883, do-
nated by a banker who had
advocated for California’s
Capitol to be built in Sacra-
mento.
Legislative leaders re-
moved the statue of Colum-
bus because they said it was
out of place “given the deadly
impact his arrival in this
hemisphere had on indige-
nous populations.”

Rising
FROM PAGE 1
The commission has been
addressing issues related to
the rising ocean for more
than a decade as part of its
responsibility to address
coastal hazards, but the new
law explicitly adds “sea-level
rise” to the list of principle
responsibilities outlined in
the Coastal Act of 1976.
“When they wrote the
Coastal Act, nobody was
thinking of sea-level rise,”
Brownsey said, noting the
growing recognition of the
threat.
Opponents of the mea-
sure, by Senate President
pro Tem Toni Atkins, D-San
Diego, include the state As-
sociation of Realtors, the
Building Industry Associ-
ation, the Orange County
chapter of the Association
of California Cities, and the
cities of Newport Beach and
Del Mar.
Members of those groups
have complained that the
Coastal Commission un-
necessarily interferes with
coastal development, includ-
ing restrictions on seawalls.
The commission prefers
maintaining the beaches,
when possible, by allowing
them to migrate inland, and
has rejected some seawall
proposals that would even-
tually eliminate the sandy
recreational spaces.
A joint argument issued
by opponents before pas-
sage by the Legislature said
SB 1 “would give the Cali-
fornia Coastal Commission
unbridled authority over
sea level rise.”
However, Brownsey said
there is no new authority
given the commission in
the new law — that it sim-
ply modernizes the list of
commission priorities. Su-
san Jordan of the Coastal
Protection Network said the
change of language should
remove all doubt over the
commission’s jurisdiction
on the matter.
“What it does is make
clear to those who try to as-
sert that the (commission)
does not have the author-
ity to address sea-level rise
that not only does it have
the authority, it has the re-
sponsibility,” said Jordan,
whose nonprofit was one
of at least 10 environmen-
tal groups to endorse the
bill. Additionally, the cities
of Carlsbad, Santa Barbara
and Alameda backed it, as
did the League of California
Cities and the San Diego As-
sociation of Governments.
SB 1 doesn’t directly allo-
cate money for local and re-
gional ocean-related grants.
But it provides the mecha-
nism for distribution for as
much as $100 million annu-
ally once appropriate funds
are available, such as the
$612 million aimed at sea-
level rise that was part of
the $15 billion climate pack-
age signed by Newsom on
Thursday.
SB 1 also increases from
$1.5 million to $2 million
the grants available for en-
vironmental justice pro-
grams to address the ef-
fects of sea-level rise on
disadvantaged communi-
ties, along with an alloca-
tion for that program.
The collaborative coor-
dination component of the
bill, to be overseen by the
Ocean Protection Council,
will help avoid duplication
of efforts and conflicting
strategies employed by the
Coastal Commission, the
Coastal Conservancy, the
state Lands Commission
and a host of other state,
regional and local entities.
“The coordination role
for the Ocean Protection
Council is critical in … pro-
viding needed resources
and support to local, re-
gional and even state agen-
cies responsible for coastal
planning and implement-
ing resilience actions,” said
Alyssa Mann of The Nature
Conservancy.
Threatened homes
The Ocean Protection
Council, which provides
sea-level rise projections
for other agencies to plan
by, has set benchmark tar-
gets to prepare for 6 feet of
rise by 2050 and 7 feet by
2100.
Every dollar spent in
pre-disaster preparation
can avoid $6 in public and
private losses afterward,
according to the Federal
Emergency Management
Agency.
But those preparations
can be particularly chal-
lenging when it comes
to moving homes, roads
and sewage plants inland.
While a 2.8-mile stretch
of Highway 1 in north San
Luis Obisbo County and
a coastal sewage plant in
Morro Bay have been moved
away from the ocean, such
adaptation will be more dif-
ficult in urbanized areas.
SB 83 is an attempt to
address of homes threat-
ened by the rising sea. The
bill by Sen. Ben Allen, D-
Santa Monica, establishes
a program for the state to
loan money to coastal cit-
ies to buy such properties
from homeowners and rent
them out as long as they’re
still safe. That rent money
would then go back into the
loan program.
Dan Jacobson of Envi-
ronment California called
the bill a “smart, innova-
tive idea.”
“We applaud the Legisla-
ture for this kind of out-of-
the-box thinking,” he said.
“These ideas provide a via-
ble exit strategy.”
Among the other sea-
level rise bills on the gover-
nor’s desk, AB 66, by Tasha
Boerner Horvath, D-Encini-
tas, would have Scripps In-
stitution of Oceanography
study coastal cliff collapse
in Del Mar and Encinitas,
and explore the possibil-
ity of developing an early
warning system.
AB 63, by Cottie Petrie-
Norris, D-Laguna Beach,
would allow marine restora-
tion in marine-protected ar-
eas, which are now off limits
to such work. Restoring kelp
beds, for instance, can help
offset some consequences of
sea-level rise by fortifying
breeding grounds and re-
ducing ocean storm surges.
AB 72, also by Petrie-
Norris, would streamline
approval processes and ad-
dress other bureaucratic
hurdles for sea-level rise
efforts.
“Time is of the essence as
seas continue to rise along
our coast, and we cannot
waste resources trying to
navigate unnecessary green
tape,” she said.
Newsom has until Oct.
10 to sign or veto this year’s
legislation.

at Wednesday’s City Coun-
cil meeting. The report was
part of an ongoing discus-
sion the council has had for
at least a year about how to
help people get off West-
minster streets. The big
question Wednesday was
whether the city should
build an emergency shelter
somewhere in town.
But that’s just one of sev-
eral options up for discus-
sion. Others include part-
nering with a neighbor-
ing city, such as Garden
Grove, to build a shared fa-
cility. Another is to contract
with a city that already has
a shelter and pay to use of
some of those beds.
Beyond questions of po-
litical will and community
support for a homeless shel-
ter, Westminster is chal-
lenged by the twin issues
of density and operating
costs — hurdles anywhere
but particularly in a com-
pact community of mostly
single family homes.
Not ready to make a deci-
sion on Wednesday, the five-
member council asked Com-
munity Development Direc-
tor Alexa Smittle to return
with recommendations on
the most feasible next steps.
Council member Car-
los Manzo also asked for
a timeline that best allows
city staff to gather informa-
tion, but underscored that
he feels a sense of urgency.
“It sounds very dire and
depressing as far as our op-
tions,” Manzo said at one
point.
“If building a shelter is
not in the cards for us, then
what is?”
Signs
If Westminster decides
pants have some kind of na-
tive ties, such as childhood
homes, education or work
connections.
“Our hands are kind of
tied when it comes to get-
ting people housed if those
shelters are not accepting
people because of the re-
strictions they put down,”
MacCormick said.
Recently, Westminster
PD’s outreach officers re-
sumed work with a faith-
based group of community
members whose earlier ef-
forts to help the homeless
was disrupted by the pan-
demic. Short of providing
shelter, the group works
to offer some dignity to
the downtrodden, such as
washing clothes for free
at a participating laundro-
mat or providing a mobile
shower service.
The goal, said MacCor-
mick, is to bring the com-

chemistry is the goal
By Kyle Goon

@kylegoon on Twitter

Two years ago, a cham-

pionship season started in
the desert.
Led by LeBron James, the
Lakers got together in Las
Vegas for a player-led mini-
camp, a session more about
creating elusive chemistry
than about any basketball
tactics. Players from the
2019-20 roster described
it as something that came
naturally: They were vet-
erans with the same goals
in mind, and off the court,
they barely skipped a beat.
That the Lakers are again
in Las Vegas should tell
you what James and com-
pany are looking for, with
a largely remade and even
older roster. There’s an ef-
fort to recreate the lockstep

MISSION VIEJO >> Capistrano
Valley football bounced
back from a tough loss to
rally for a 38-28 victory
against visiting Cypress on
Friday.
Running back Jaden Cas-
sidy rushed for two touch-
downs in the fourth quar-
ter, and Dane Benedix
added a key interception to
help lift the No.15 Cougars
(4-2), who trailed 13-0 early
in the first quarter. They
lost 67-47 last week to vis-
iting Orange.
Benedix appeared to re-
turn a leaping interception
102 yards for a score with
5:14 left in the fourth but
the ball was instead spot-
ted at the Cypress 24-yard
line. Four plays, Cassidy
scored on a 1-yard TD run
as Capistrano Valley took a
38-28 lead.

Orange scored last week
and set out to make a
statement Thursday in the
teams’ anticipated football
showdown.
The Knights’ decree: no

out the high-powered Pan-
thers for the final three
quarters en route to a 21-7
victory at El Modena.
No. 13 Orange (2-3)
scored 67 points in a victory
against Capistrano Valley
last week but struggled to
break big plays against the
Knights (5-0), who received
another well-rounded effort
from their defense.
Foothill has held its last
four opponents to a com-
bined 20 points.
On Thursday, the Knights
didn’t allow Orange quar-

LAKE FOREST >> Collin Payne
started the game with a big
play for El Toro. He ended it
with a big play.
Payne, a senior, returned
the opening kickoff 89
yards for a touchdown and
with 1:18 left in the fourth
quarter blocked what
would have been a game-
tying extra-point kick as El
Toro defeated Tesoro 28-27
on Friday in a nonleague
game at El Toro High.
El Toro junior Jake Vivo-
nia had three interceptions,
including a game-clinching
pick in the final seconds,
and a touchdown reception.
Trey Williams returned an
interception 47 yards for a
touchdown early in the sec-
ond half.
El Toro is undefeated.
The Chargers, No. 19 in the
Orange County top 25, are
6-0. Tesoro, No. 18 in the
county top 25, is 1-4.
El Toro senior quarter-
back Blake Miller com-
pleted 13 of 18 passes for
161 yards and two touch-
downs. Chargers senior
Carson Olsen had five re-
ceptions for 110 yards and
a touchdown.
Tesoro senior running
back Lucas Pesak rushed
for 182 yards and three
touchdowns on 34 carries.
Pesaks’s third touch-
down came on a fourth-
and-goal play at the El Toro
1-yard line to cut the Char-
gers lead to 28-27. With Tes-
oro lined up for the point-
after kick Payne, coming
around the left edge, lunged
and blocked the kick.
Tesoro got the ball again
with 55 seconds remain-
ing. The Titans advanced
to their 45-yard line where
their possession ended
when Vivonia made his
third interception.

Ramos had been flourishing as
a reliever with the Miami Mar-
lins, capped by a 40-save season in
which he made the All-Star team in
2016. The next year he was traded
to the New York Mets.
And in 2018, he had surgery to
repair a torn labrum. Shoulder op-
erations are much more risky than
elbow operations, so anytime a
pitcher has shoulder surgery his
career is in jeopardy.
Ramos missed all of the 2019 sea-
son and he pitched just three games
with the Colorado Rockies in 2020.
That’s why he was still unsigned
until the Angels inked him to a mi-
nor league deal during spring train-
ing. Ramos said one of the reasons
he didn’t sign earlier was because
teams were unsure if he could last
the whole season with his surgically
repaired shoulder.
Once Ramos got over the disap-
pointment of not getting called up
to the Angels, he set his sights on
simply getting through the entire
season to prove himself for next
year.
Ramos did that, pitching 53 in-
nings in 55 games with Salt Lake.
He struck out 76 and walked 26. He
had a 5.26 ERA, which was better
than the 5.82 ERA for the entire hit-
ter-friendly Triple-A West (formerly
known as the Pacific Coast League).
“I’m eager to see him play,” Man-
ager Joe Maddon said. “He was re-
ally good when I saw him in Miami.
Both times – I was in Tampa Bay,
and even with the Cubs – I saw him,
and he pitched a lot. He pitched in
tight situations. And he was always
very good. So I’m curious.”

the Angels today, has allowed 11

starter, he has a 2.56 ERA.
Maddon said he’s been around
pitchers with this issue before, and
it’s difficult to find any sort of ex-
ternal solution.
“You try multiple different
things, and it never really seems to
matter,” Maddon said. “A different

comes down to the player. They just
have to do something internally dif-
ferent to get through that first in-
ning. And then once he does, and
he knows that he can, I think it’ll
continue.”
Notes
The Angels placed right-hander
Kyle Tyler on the injured list with
a right toe strain, likely ending his
season. Tyler, who started the year
in Double-A, gave up four earned
runs in 12-1/3 innings over five
games. ... Jhonathan Diaz was re-
called to take Tyler’s spot. Diaz had
been optioned after making his ma-
jor league debut last Friday. ... The
Angel Stadium infield was covered
by the tarp because of a rare sprin-
kling during the time batting prac-
tice was scheduled. The tarp was re-
moved about 90 minutes before the
scheduled first pitch.
Dodgers
FROM PAGE 1
The Giants’ magic number to
clinch the division title and end
the Dodgers’ reign after eight NL
West titles is down to eight.
Pollock’s homer was part of
a three-run second inning that
also included a leadoff double
by Will Smith and an RBI single
by Justin Turner. The Dodgers
never trailed after that, though
they managed to add on just
one more run (cashing in a lead-
off double by Trea Turner in the
sixth inning).
Friday was Pollock’s 30th
game against his former team
and he has batted .367 (44 for
120) with 13 doubles, eight home
runs, 25 runs scored and 26
driven in. He has kicked his for-
mer team particularly hard when
they are down (having lost 105
games this season), going 20 for
42 with seven doubles, four home
runs and 11 RBIs in 10 games this
year.
Pollock also taunted his ex
with defense this time, crashing
into the wall to run down Josh
Rojas’ drive in the first inning.
But Pollock’s catch wasn’t the
most impressive defensive play
of the night. That came in the
fourth inning with one out and
a runner on first.
RICK SCUTERI — THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Dodgers left fielder AJ Pollock
makes the catch at the wall on a
ball hit by Arizona’s Josh Rojas in
the first inning Friday night.
Kole Calhoun sent a drive into
right-center field. Making just
his second career start in cen-
ter field (and only his 12th as an
outfielder), Gavin Lux flashed his
athleticism, running it down on
the warning track. Right fielder
Mookie Betts (who has talked
with Lux about the transition
from infield to outfield) gave
an excited hop of joy when Lux
made the catch.
The runner at first, Daulton
Varsho, was so convinced it
was going to bang off the wall
for a double that he had already
rounded second base and was
easily doubled off first to end
the inning.
Pollock and Lux helped right-
hander Tony Gonsolin get
through five innings with just
two runs allowed (one after the
runner reached base on a third
strike wild pitch).
The Dodgers’ lead was in dan-
ger twice over the final four in-
nings.
Alex Vesia gave up a one-out
double to Ketel Marte in the
sixth inning, then followed it
by walking Varsho. But Calhoun
flew out and Vesia struck out Da-
vid Peralta.
In the eighth, Blake Treinen
walked back-to-back batters with
one out before getting Varsho to
fly out and striking out Calhoun
with the tying runs in scoring
position.
Kenley Jansen finished off
a combined four-hitter with
some more help from the out-
field. Out of the starting lineup
for the ninth time in the past 11
games, Chris Taylor entered late
as a pinch-hitter then stayed in
to play left field.
He made two outstanding
plays in the ninth, diving to catch
Peralta’s slicing drive down the
left field line then racing over to
run down Pavin Smith’s fly ball
near the line.
DeChambeau and Scottie
Scheffler were poised for a 1-up
victory until Hatton hit 5-iron
into a a hard left-to-right pin
that landed near the hole and
settled 7 feet away. He made the
birdie putt to scratch out a halve
and could only hope it was worth
more.
“Things like this can turn the
tide,” Rahm said.
After one day, it already feels
like a strong tide, and that makes
Saturday and another round of
foursomes and fourballs more
important than ever.
Padraig Harrington also
broke up all his pairings and
only got to halves to show for it.
This was the first time since the
Ryder Cup was expanded to in-
clude all of Europe in 1979 that
no one from the morning played
together in the afternoon from
either team.
Cantlay and Schauffele were
tough as ever in foursomes,
which set the tone for the Amer-
icans. They were 5 up through
five holes against McIlroy and
Ian Poulter, and closed out their
impressive 5-and-3 win with
four straight birdies, the last one
conceded.
“I don’t know if anyone could
have beat Xander and Patrick to-
day,” McIlroy said. “They played
really good — four birdies in a
row. Geez, yeah, they played
great.”

RAMS
Sony Michel, acquired from New England before this season, ran for 32 yards and three
first downs on the Rams’ game-winning drive against the Colts last Sunday.
Michel is ready to run
if Henderson can’t go
By Kevin Modesti

THOUSAND OAKS >> When
the Rams made the trade
to acquire Sony Michel in
the shadow of the regular
season, they knew the run-
ning back would be in the
spotlight sooner or later.
To nobody’s great sur-
prise, it’s sooner.
Often-injured Darrell
Henderson’s sore ribs kept
him out of practice for the
third day in a row Friday.
He’s listed as questionable
for Sunday’s game against
the Tampa Bay Buccaneers
at SoFi Stadium. Rams
coach Sean McVay said
his availability could be a
game-time decision.
“You’ve got to plan for
the worst-case scenario,
that he’s not going (to
play),” McVay said. “It ends
up being a bonus if he is
able to go.”
Michel would start if
Henderson can’t, and as
worst-case scenarios go,
that doesn’t sound too bad.
The 26-year-old first-
round draft pick from
Georgia is more accom-
plished than the starter he
would replace, with a pair
of 900-yard seasons with
the New England Patriots
and the only touchdown in
the Pats’ Super Bowl LIII
victory over the Rams.
Better yet for the Rams,

picks to the Pats on Aug.

following Cam Akers’ pre-
training-camp Achilles’
tendon injury.
Starter? Backup? La-
bels don’t seem to matter
to Michel.
“Just throughout my
career, I’ve always pre-
pared like a starter (even
if he wasn’t starting),” Mi-
chel said after practice
Thursday. “These past two
games, I’ve prepared as if I
was going to be a starter.
“Things happen in a
game where I might get

made the switch.
“I spoke to Chip and he
was nice enough to let me
just come drive the car one
day at Indy,” said Johnson,
who turned 46 on Sept. 17.
“Again, it just confirmed
how much fun I thought
the cars were and, really,
that started it all for me. It
was about the experience of
driving the car.”
Signed this year and next
year with Ganassi to race
all road and street courses,
the results have not yet been
great. In 11 races so far, his
top finish of 17th came this
past weekend at Laguna
Seca. But, overall, he inti-
mated it’s been a blast.
“The experience has been
greater than expected,” said
Johnson, of El Cajon. “Not
only from driving the car,
but also from being in this
paddock and being in this
industry. It’s different from
NASCAR and it’s a refresh-
ing change. I loved my NAS-

got the rest of the game,
if you’re not prepared, it
doesn’t mean anything.”
Michel looked prepared
when Henderson came out
of the game after the first
play of the fourth quarter
against the Colts.
After carrying the ball
only once in the season-
opening victory over the
Chicago Bears, he got it
10 times and gained 46
yards in the final 14 min-
utes in Indianapolis, in-
cluding 32 yards and three
first downs on four con-
secutive carries as quar-
terback Matthew Stafford
drove the Rams to Matt
Gay’s game-winning field
goal.
McVay said Michel is
well-suited to the uncer-
tainties of his role.
“I don’t think he antic-
ipated Darrell getting his
ribs injured in the game
last week, but he came in,
stepped up and did a great
job,” McVay said. “That’s
what makes Sony a pro.”
If Henderson is out or
limited Sunday, Michel
would be backed up by
Jake Funk, and the Rams
could call up fourth-year
pro Buddy Howell from the
practice squad.
Funk, a rookie but se-
nior to Michel with the
Rams, said he has admired
how the new man dedi-
cated himself to working
with running-backs coach
Thomas Brown to quickly
learn the playbook.
“You have to have some-
body who’s committed to
their craft, a guy who con-
sistently shows up day in
and day out,” Funk said
of what makes a good
backup. “I see it all the
time with him. He’s do-
ing extra on the side with
coach Brown. He’s asked
so many questions of Dar-
rell, myself, guys who’ve
had a little more time in
the system, and he’s picked
it up really well.
“I’m excited. He’s ex-
cited. We’re ready to go.”
CAR roots and my time and
everything I accomplished
there.
“But it is nice after 20
years to kind of reinvent
yourself and do something
different. Though it’s a race
car, it feels very much like a
different industry, although
it’s the same family.”
Johnson said he plans on
racing as long as Ganassi
will have him, that he might
add the Indianapolis 500
and other ovals to his cal-
endar if that can be worked
out with sponsors, etc. He’ll
even be going to NTT Indy-
Car rookie orientation pro-
gram at Indy next month.
As for Long Beach, John-
son said he was at the event
a few times in the mid-90s
during the very early stages
of his career to do some net-
working.
“It just felt special, it felt
different than other races,” he
said. “Here, the drivers then
and even still today put this
in the crown jewel family. I
very much see it the same
way and it’s been neat to
come back 25 years later here
and finally get a shot at it.”
It might be easy to over-
look the running backs
before Sunday’s game be-
tween 2-0 teams. It’s billed
as a quarterback duel be-
tween the Rams’ Stafford
and the Buccaneers’ Tom
Brady. Last November,
when the Rams won 27-24
in Tampa, they did it with
only 37 yards rushing to
go with Jared Goff’s 376
passing.
But the ballcarriers have
helped to ice the Rams’ two
wins this season, Hender-
son against the Bears with
49 yards on eight carries
on their 12-play drive to
the fourth-quarter touch-
down that made it 34-14,
Michel against the Colts.
“It just shows the ca-
pabilities of our offense,”
Funk said. “We’re able to
have a quarterback like
Matthew out there, and
then be able to run the ball
when it’s needed.”
Michel hasn’t faced the
Bucs, but has seen the
challenge their defense
presents on film.
“I’m sure ever ybody
knows they’ve got a phys-
ical front seven. They’ve
got guys in the back that
cover well,” Michel said.
“To be able to run the foot-
ball, you’ve got to be physi-
cal against them. It’s going
to be one of those old-fash-
ioned, physical games.”
Physically, the Rams
appear better off than the
Bucs.
Rams outside linebacker
Leonard Floyd returned to
practice Friday after miss-
ing two days with what
McVay called a “nagging”
ankle injury, and was de-
clared good to go Sunday.
Cornerback Darious Wil-
liams was ill and missed
practice Friday, but McVay
expected him to play.
In Tampa, Bucs wide
receiver Antonio Brown
is on the COVID-19 list,
and outside linebacker Ja-
son Pierre-Paul (shoulder,
hand) and punt and kick
returner Jaydon Mickens
(abdomen) were declared
out. Brown had eight re-
c ept ion s a nd P ier re -
Paul had an interception
against the Rams in 2020.
NASCAR days
Johnson’s seven NASCAR
Cup titles included 83 race
wins. Even he can’t believe
what he accomplished. He
was asked if he has had time
to really think about that.
“I’ve tried to let it in and,
especially NASCAR, the
days go by so fast and you
don’t have much time to
savor a good or a bad race
or a good or a bad year be-
cause before you know it,
you’re back to work,” he
said, laughing. “But living
it, I couldn’t believe it then.
Reflecting back on it, I still
can’t believe it now.
“My dream was to win a
race in NASCAR.”
He did that in the 10th
race of his first full season,
in 2002, at the NAPA Auto
Parts 500 in Fontana.
“Eighty-three races and
seven championships, I
couldn’t dream that big,
right?” Johnson said. “Like,
it’s just so off the charts
that I kind of sit back and
chuckle about it myself. I
just can’t believe it hap-
pened.”
CHARGERS
Rookie CB Samuel makes
a strong first impression
By Gilbert Manzano
gmanzano@scng.com
@gmanzano24 on Twitter
COSTA MESA >> The Char-
gers raved about cor-
nerback Asante Samuel
Jr.’s instincts when they
drafted him with their sec-
ond-round pick in April.
Samuel displayed those
skills last week when he
noticed Dallas Cowboys
quarterback Dak Prescott
preparing to throw to
wide receiver CeeDee
Lamb. Samuel was de-
fending wide receiver Am-
ari Cooper, but he stopped
to be in the right place for
Prescott’s overthrown ball.
The Florida State prod-
uct’s awareness helped him
record his first career reg-
ular-season interception,
but his football skills didn’t
kick in after the memora-
ble play.
Samuel said he forgot to
save the football because
he “kinda blacked out”
from excitement.
“I lost it on the sideline,”
Samuel said about his in-
tercepted football. “I was
hoping I could get it back.
I don’t know where it’s at.
... I don’t even know what
happened.”
At 21 years, 351 days of
age, Samuel is the young-
est Chargers player in the
past 25 years to intercept a
pass. Samuel probably isn’t
too disappointed about not
keeping his first intercep-
tion because he expects to
make many more big plays.
But Samuel’s instincts
aren’t just about creating
takeaways. He’s excelling
in coverage with an oppo-
nent passer rating of 46.3,
the best among rookie cor-
nerbacks, according to Pro
Football Focus.
Samuel allowed a few
completions early dur-
ing the 20-17 loss to the
Cowboys, but he made ad-
justments to help contain
Lamb and Cooper, two of
the best wide receivers in
the NFL. In Week 1, Wash-
ington quarterback Taylor
Heinicke threw his first
two passes in Samuel’s di-
rection to test the rookie.
Both passes were incom-
plete.
“From Day 1, when he
came in here, nothing
seemed too big for him at
all,” Chargers defensive
coordinator Renaldo Hill
said. “It didn’t matter if he
was going against (Char-
gers wide receiver) Keenan
(Allen) in practice, or the
guys he faced last week.
“I think he’s shown
growth and I think he
learns fast. It’s one of those
situations where you tell
him one time and he gets
it. He’s moving on and he’s

Plant stores as hybrids
Alongside the ferns and

his year, as Hal-
loween revelers
get ready for the
spooky season, they
might find a bone-chilling
Stephen King title or festive-
looking pumpkin sharing
shelf space with something
creepy and crawly. It may
just be a pothos plant,
known for its long runners.
Houseplants are as much
of a hot ticket item as avoca-
do toast or vinyl, and some
businesses are banking on
that. In Southern California,
several stores sell plants
in addition to other trendy
items, hoping that people
will come in for a pilea and
leave with a copy of Fleet-
wood Mac’s “Rumours” or a
nice, hearty espresso roast.
Here’s a look at some of the
hybrid plant shops you can
find in Southern California.
MUNDIAL
1725 SPRUCE ST., RIVERSIDE,
951-777-1225. @MUNDIAL_RIVERSIDE ON
INSTAGRAM
This Riverside store is giving out crash
courses in geography with its calatheas
and espresso roasts.
Mundial, which means “global” in Span-
ish, offers a wide selection of houseplants,
coffees and knickknacks and was founded
by sisters-in-law Priscilla Horta and Nay-
eli Ysarraraz.
Horta said she and Ysarraraz love coffee,
plants and travel. They were inspired to
open Mundial because many people don’t
know where their coffee comes from or
how large-scale coffee farming can have
negative environmental effects.
“What we wanted to do was one day put
up a coffee shop that can do it the right
way and be just a little bit more conscious
about who we’re working with and the
impact we’re having on the environment,”
Horta said.
A lot of the coffees available at Mundial
are from small businesses owned by fami-
lies who Horta and Ysarraraz met during
their travels.
The sisters-in-law also knew from the
beginning they wanted to offer plants, but
in a way that kept with the global theme.
“We just wanted people to know — not
just, ‘Hey, I’m getting a pothos’ or ‘This
calathea is really pretty’ — but we actu-
ally have labels throughout the store that
state where the plant is from,” Horta said.
She said the labels have information
on what continent a plant originated
from and even topographical features
like whether it came from highlands or
lowlands.
The shop, which is also a cafe serving av-
ocado toast and sandwiches, is also look-
ing to go international with its food offer-
ings in the not too distant future, Horta

said. They’re looking at adding Moroccan
harira soup, Spanish tapas and a Middle
Eastern platter with hummus.
“We’re just really trying to get people
to be more conscious and aware of where
their stuff comes from,” she said.
LOST BOOKS
2233 HONOLULU AVE, MONTROSE
@LOSTBOOKSLA ON INSTAGRAM
In this Montrose store you can get lost
in greenery — or a real page turner.
The store, a sister property to the Last
Bookstore in downtown Los Angeles, has
a green tunnel at its entrance that fea-
tures 365 live plants.
The tunnel was designed by the owner
of nearby restaurant Yuko’s Kitchen, who

also supplies the plants that are available
for sale inside the store. A peak at the
business’s Instagram shows it has items
such as ferns, dracaenas, fiddle leaf figs
and pileas.
In an email, owner Jenna Spencer
wrote that marrying plants and books
felt very natural when she and husband
Josh were thinking of a concept for Lost
Books. She wanted the space to feel like
being inside a treehouse or rain forest,
and that Josh “wanted a garden entrance
that transported you to another world.”
As far as books, the store carries a wide
selection of new and used titles, Spencer
says vintage mysteries and classics have
been extremely popular.

ALL TIME PLANTS AND AMIGO MODERN
1322 CORONADO AVE., SUITE B,
LONG BEACH. @ALLTIME.PLANTS
AND @AMIGOMODERN ON INSTAGRAM
You can deck out your home or apart-
ment with some cool furniture and some
greenery by visiting the shop where these
two businesses are located.
Rare houseplant store All Time Plants
first opened as a pop-up in September 2020
at Commodity Long Beach and saw suc-
cess as interest in houseplants surged dur-
ing the pandemic, according to owner Joey
Espina.
Amigo Modern, owned by Eric Trine,
specialized in furniture inspired by Cal-
ifornia modernism. More recently, Trine
also hopped on the plant trend by adding
stands to Amigo’s lineup of offerings.
When a larger space became available
in Long Beach, Espina and Trine decided
to team up and share it.
Currently the space is divided, with half
being a showroom where products are on
display.
“He’ll bring in his products, we’ll style
it up and give people the idea of what it
could look like in their space,” Espina said.
The other half of the space has items for
sale. Customers can pick up one of Amigo’s
pieces of furniture or a rare houseplant
from All Time Plants. Espina said he spe-
cializes in rare and hard-to-find varieties
like climbing philodendrons and alocasias.
“My houseplants and his products just
really come together,” Espina said. “It
blends perfectly.”
Other business owners get representa-
tion inside the store as well, with pottery,
art and candles from creatives in the Long
Beach area.
PLANTS BY YOURS TRULY AND BYO LONG
BEACH (ROOTED OF LONG BEACH)
3805 ATLANTIC AVE, LONG BEACH
@PLANTSBYYOURSTRULY AND
@BRINGYOUROWNLONGBEACH ON
INSTAGRAM
This store is green, and not just for the
foliage on the houseplants.
Melissa Murillo’s Plants by Yours Truly
specializes in a variety of houseplants. Ju-
lie Darrell’s sustainable product business
BYO Long Beach sells goods to replace sin-
gle-use containers.
The two women have brought their
two businesses together under storefront
Rooted of Long Beach.
BYO has shower gels, conditioners, soaps
and cleaning products that people can fill
their own containers with, and there are
reusable containers available for purchase.
Murillo said many customers have
jumped from one business to the other
when they visit the storefront. For exam-
ple, they might come in for one of Darrell’s
sustainable products only to get lost in the
greenery of Plants by Yours Truly.
“We have plenty of crossover, which I
think is one of the reasons why our store
is doing so well,” she said.
SACHI.LA
4574 S. CENTINELA AVE., LOS ANGELES
@SACHI.LA ON INSTAGRAM
This coffee shop and retail space has
offered items such as houseplants, pot-
tery, vintage clothing and gifts since it
opened three years ago, but began to fo-
cus on retail even more during the pan-
demic.
Sachi Hartley, who opened the business
with her sister Chiyo, said that when the
store had to close its interior space last
year because of the pandemic, they began
to focus on houseplants and small gifts to
fill space formerly used for seating.
That increased amount of merchandise
didn’t go away when pandemic restric-
tions eased. This year the store acquired
the space next door and moved its ex-
panded retail offerings there.
“Once you have one it’s kind of a slip-
pery slope and people want more,” Hart-
ley said about houseplants.

Horoscope ADVICE

Couple eager to live on their own

Moon Alert: Caution! Avoid
shopping or important decisions
from 6a.m. to 6p.m. After that,
the Moon moves from Taurus into
Gemini.
Happy birthday for Friday,
Sept. 25, 2021: You are loyal
to your friends and have strong
family values. These relationships
are important to you. You are
honest and sincere; you are also
insightful and quite intuitive. This
year you feel creative and have a
stronger zest for life. You will be
more sociable and friendly with
others, and will likely be in the
public eye. Enjoy good times!
Aries (March 21-April 19):
\*\*\*\* Today you might have
a serious discussion with a close
friend or partner, especially about
arrangements. Perhaps you will
discuss the division of labor.
Who takes out the garbage? It
might be about shared expenses.
Tonight: Whatever happens, you’ll
be practical.
Taurus (April 20-May 20):
\*\*\*\*\* You will get a lot done
at work today because you will be
persevering at whatever you do.
You won’t slack off. You’ll give it
your best shot, and you will pay
attention to details. You’ll do your
best to finish whatever you begin.
Tonight: Relax.
Gemini (May 21-June 20):
\*\*\*\* This is a good day to
practice something in order
to improve. You might hone a
technique in sports, for example.
Or you might practice something
in the arts, perhaps musical
arpeggios, that sort of thing. It’s
also a good day to teach children.
Tonight: Practice makes perfect.
Cancer (June 21-July 22):
\*\*\*\*\* You will accomplish
a lot at home today because you
have the patience and persever-
ance to get the job done. It might
be overwhelming because there is
increased chaos around you due
to renovations, residential moves
or visiting guests. Tonight: Give it
your best shot, because that’s all
you can do.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):
\*\*\*\*\* You will be most
convincing and persuasive in a
discussion with others today. In
fact, everything you do today will
be done with careful thought and
planning. You won’t go off half-
cocked. You will pay attention to
details. Tonight: This is an excel-
lent time to study.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):
\*\*\*\* When it comes to
financial matters today, you will
be conservative and careful. If
you’re working for money, you will
do whatever you do with thought
and precision. If spending money,
do be aware of the restrictions of
the Moon Alert. Tonight: Now you
can shop.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):
\*\*\*\*\* Today you have the
patience and willingness to do
difficult and exacting work. This is
because you have the necessary
concentration and focus to get
the job done. Whether you have to
do mental or physical work, either
way, you will pay great attention
to detail and do everything care-
fully. Tonight: Exercise.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):
\*\*\*\*\* This is a marvelous
day to do research of any kind,
because you will be thorough,
persevering and precise. You
won’t stop until the job is done.
(You’ll be like a dog with a bone.)
Naturally, this kind of approach
will probably yield the results you
hope to find. Tonight: Research.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):
\*\*\*\*\* You will work well
with a team today or in tandem
with others. This is a good day
to form partnerships, because
people will welcome your hard-
working energy! In particular, you
want to be involved in something
that is useful. Tonight: Help
someone.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
\*\*\*\*\* You will impress
bosses, parents, teachers and
VIPs today, because you will
be conscientious, hardworking,
thorough and reliable at whatever
you do. Even though others are
impressed, you will be modest
about your accomplishments.
Tonight: You’re pleased.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):
\*\*\*\* Choose today to study
something that is demanding,
because you will be able to do
it. This is because your mind is
focused, self-disciplined and
willing to pay attention to detail.
You also might learn something
valuable from a teacher. Tonight:
Listen.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):
\*\*\*\* You’re willing to be
useful and helpful to someone
today, especially when dealing
with shared property or organiz-
ing something that someone else
owns. People will welcome and
praise your efforts, because you
will be productive and make a
difference in their eyes. Tonight:
Take a bow.

bloomed, is to undergo a
long-dormant period before
coming to life again the fol-
lowing year. It is as though
these plants, most of which
originate in arid climates,
welcome the adversity of a
long, dry, hot, leafless sum-
mer, if only to prove their
indifference to conditions
that would threaten the
survival of most other leafy
species.
Exactly 13 years ago, I
was at a nursery and spot-
ted a bulb that I really
wanted but whose price
of $19.99, I reasoned, was
kind of ridiculous. Still,
this was no ordinary bulb.
It measured 4 inches across
and 6 inches from top to
bottom, having the shape
and size of a radish on ste-
roids.
I went home but could
find no peace. I started to
investigate this horticul-
tural oddity and concluded,
after all, that the price was
fair and, all things consid-
ered, maybe even a bar-
gain.
As we learn from cycads,
the dollar value of plants is
directly proportional to the
time it takes to grow them.
And the bulb in question,
I learned, had been fat-
tening up for the past de-
cade, at least. It also prom-
ised to produce a 6-foot-tall
flower spike covered with
hundreds of star-shaped
blooms. It required no care
whatsoever once it was
settled in its garden spot.
I went back to the nurs-
ery and secured the bulb
— a giant squill (Drimia or
Urginea maritima) — for
my backyard.
A few decades ago, a
tourist was visiting Greece,
saw a plantation of giant
squills in bloom and in-
quired about them. He
learned that they were be-
ing grown exclusively for
their bulbs, which con-
tained a toxin used in the
manufacture of rat poison.
The tourist saw an oppor-
tunity not in rat poison, but
in the impressive inflores-
cences, which he correctly
surmised would be highly
sought in the cut flower
industry. Today, he has a
flourishing squill planta-
tion of his own. Each Sep-
tember morning, he goes
out and harvests his 6-foot
inflorescences for shipment
throughout the United
States.
Most bulbs are planted
at a depth equal to three
Among the more exotic plants growing from bulbs is giant squill, which sends up 6-foot flower stalks every few years.

now until December, bulbs
from dry climates such as
the Mediterranean and
South Africa are planted.
This includes bearded iris
in the full rainbow of col-
ors, harlequin sparaxis,
pink watsonia, orange-red
crocosmia, blue ixia and
purple Scilla peruviana.
From mid-October to late
January, plant daffodils
and narcissus, anemone,
freesia, Spanish bluebells
(sometimes called dwarf
hyacinth) and muscari (also
known as grape hyacinth).
Hybrid Dutch bulbs (tu-
lips, crocuses and giant hy-
acinths) are best planted
November through Janu-
ary after they have been
chilled in a refrigerator’s
crisper drawer for a min-
imum of six weeks. Bulbs
for spring planting include
dahlia, gladiolus, caladium,
calla lilies and canna lil-
ies. These planting periods
may overlap and, in truth,
as soon as a certain type of
bulb is available, it may be
planted.
To appreciate bulbs, it
helps to have a sense of
drama. You place a lump
of starchy tissue in the
ground just as the grow-
ing season comes to a close.
In the same spot, while
the rest of the garden still
sleeps, green shoots will
rise majestically from be-
low, bearing flowers of ex-
quisite shape and beauty,
the first harbingers of
spring.
Speaking of drama,
there is a park in the Neth-
erlands, known as Keuke-
nhof, which opens its gates
to the public only from
mid-March until mid-May.
Keukenhof does this for
only one reason: to display
the bursting into bloom of
the 7 million bulbs planted
there annually. The park
was conceived more than
50 years ago to showcase
the Netherlands’ bulbs —
especially tulips — for un-
abashedly commercial and
promotional purposes, yet
it still is at the top of every
flower lover’s bucket list.
If you have limited space
for planting bulbs but want
to extend the flowering pe-
riod of your bulb garden,
emulate the practice at
Keukenhof, where the gen-
erally accepted rules for
planting depth are cast
aside. At Keukenhof, three
bulbs are planted in a sin-
gle hole, one on top of the
other. The uppermost bulb
blooms first, followed by
the one below it, whose
bloom is followed by the
most deeply planted bulb.
Giant amaryllis (Hip-
peastrum) is a favorite bulb
of mine. It sends up enor-
mous trumpets, most fa-
mously in red-orange but
also in salmon, pink or
white and, often enough, in
two colors. These trumpets
flare as wide as 8 inches
across, with a bonus being
that giant amaryllis will
spread from year to year in
your garden beds.

Smoke Alarms Save Lives
By Sherri Butterfield
Fires kill more Americans each year than all natural disasters in the
United States combined according to former Fire Chief and Deputy
U.S. Fire Administrator Glenn Gaines. On average, fires kill 3,190
people annually and injure an additional 16,225.
Fire moves with frightening speed. A home fire can change from
smoldering in a wastebasket or burning on a stovetop to an explosive
flashover that engulfs an entire house in fewer than 5 minutes.
Today’s synthetic materials have shortened escape time. According
to Consumer Safety Director John Drengenberg of Underwriters
Laboratories, thirty years ago, occupants had on average about 14 to
17 minutes to escape a house fire. Today, because of the prevalence
of synthetic materials in carpet, curtains, pillows, and upholstery, they
may have as little as 3 minutes.
Smoke alarms sense abnormal amounts of smoke or invisible
combustion gases in the air. They can detect both smoldering and
flaming fires, can warn you of impending danger before you see flames,
and can awaken you if you are asleep.
Smoke alarms save lives. According to the United States Fire
Administration, having working smoke alarms in your home cuts your
risk of death in a residential fire in half.
The California State Building Code requires that you install smoke
alarms (1) in each bedroom or sleeping area, (2) in the hallway outside
the bedrooms, and (3) on every floor regardless of whether there is a
bedroom on that floor.
Position smoke alarms for maximum effectiveness. Because smoke
rises, install smoke alarms high on the wall or on the ceiling. And
because cooking fires account for 44 percent of all home fires, place a
smoke alarm in the kitchen area.
Vacuum cobwebs and dust from your smoke alarms monthly to
maintain maximum sensitivity and prevent nuisance alarms.
At least once a month, press the test button on each smoke alarm
to ensure that it is working properly. This feature tests all electronic
functions. Using it is much safer and more effective than using a
controlled fire (a cigarette, lighter, or match)
to produce smoke near the alarm.
Change the batteries right away if an alarm
chirps, warning that the battery is low. And
change 9-volt smoke-alarm batteries twice
a year.
Replace smoke alarms when they are
ten years old because they may become
less sensitive and their performance may
degrade over time.

The information you need from a name you know and trust...
Isn’t it time you take a fresh look at the Modem Reverse Mortgage?
1 Pay off your current mortgage, eliminate the need to make, or worry
about making a monthly mortgage payment. *Home paid off? Great! Use
tax-free funds for home improvement, paying off credit cards or medical bills,
travel, gifts...there’s no limit to what you can do!**
2 Already have a Reverse Mortgage? Call us today as interest rates are at
record lows and HUD has reduced the ongoing MIP from 1.25% to 0.5%!
Refinance today and start saving tomorrow!
3 Would you like a new home? One with a single level or perhaps a low
maintenance yard? Time to move closer to those grandkids? You can
now purchase a new home with the Modern Reverse Mortgage. With a
one-time down payment, you can double your home buyer budget and
have no monthly mortgage payment.
*You still own your home and are responsible for property tax, insurance and any HOA fees just as you are today. You can sell your home at any time,
never have a pre payments penalty, and if you pass while in the loan, your home goes to your heirs because you retain title to your home.
