As 2022 comes to an end, let’s take a moment to reflect before embarking on a shiny new year.
Such is the purpose of The Reporter’s Year in Review special section.
Among the top national stories of the year are local ones, pieces where each journalist takes a look at their body of work for 2022 and expands on those that stand out. One reporter chose his favorite stories, another those described as the most important on his beat.
Still another opted for a visual look at Solano during past months, and also contributed stories that meant the most to him.
As for me, I’m just grateful to work with and oversee an amazing team that, despite all odds, comes together to perform miracles on a moment-by-moment basis. There’s a lot of sacrifice involved, a wealth of time and effort expended, an abundance of care that goes into not only getting each story but also ensuring the details are accurate.
The result — each day’s edition of The Reporter.
My own list of coverage is short, mainly because it’s condensed. The stories that stood out to me really touched me for one reason or another.
For example, my byline marks a bunch of retirement stories this year. Among them were farewells to Jason Johnson, Nate Benevides and Otha Livingston with the Vacaville Police Department and Steve West with the California Highway Patrol. I’ve been with The Reporter for 23 years and have worked closely with all four, watched them grow and promote and continue to do great things for the community.
Fairfield police Chief Deanna Cantrell conducted amazing outreach both within and outside the Police Department. She may have left, but her legacy lives on and her successor, Chief Dan Marshall, is well known for his care and compassion and ability to get things done.
Most fun for me was birthday coverage of Solano’s centenarians. Each one I met was irreverent and grateful for a life well lived.
Like Shirley Helmich of Vacaville, whose golfing skills were impressive during an early morning at Cypress Lakes Golf Course. A mom of three, she found golf later in life and made up for it with practice and fierce competitiveness.
Life is good, she said, adding that she’s celebrated numerous times before her big day and a three-day gathering with family was set to follow.
“I like my candy bars, my ice cream,” she said, explaining that there’s no magical tip for living a long life. “The Lord has been good to me.”
The death of Vacaville crossing guard Robert “Bobby” Murray, 88, of Callison Elementary School moved me. Hundreds of students, staff, faculty, family, friends and community members gathered to remember him. He was a friend, they said, part of the very fabric of the Callison community.
Murray was truly interested in the students and their families, made everyone feel special, attendees said. “Mr. Bobby,” as he was known, had a big heart and an even more generous spirit.
As 10-year-old Naomi Studer explained, school was hard for her as she didn’t have many friends. Murray, however, was one.
“He was like a grandfather to me,” she told the crowd. “I could always count on one thing — he’d be there.”
A visit with the Sacramento-based Company G of the 10th Cavalry, aka the Buffalo Soldiers, at Peña Adobe Park in September had a time-travel vibe.
Dressed in period gear and toting authentic weaponry, soldiers took the community back in history, imparting tales this reporter had never heard and was motivated to delve deeper.
Finally, the tragic death of Fairfield’s Reynaldo Pacheco Jr., 40, was hard to let go of.
Pacheco was fatally shot in September while attempting to bring his oldest son home from a party within the city, where he was being attacked. He leaves behind a wife and three children.
A suspect has yet to be found, and the family awaits answers.

Mapping your vegetable garden before planting helps you see how many seedlings you need, where they will be planted, and how you can keep each bed producing all through the growing season.
Late winter is the perfect time to plan your vegetable garden. After enduring snowstorms and cold temperatures for months, I begin wondering whether spring will ever come at all.
Thoughts of warmer days and fresh garden harvests encourage me to the next step in planning a vegetable garden: Mapping the Garden Beds.
After organizing your seed box, paging through the catalogs thinking about what to grow, and making a seed wish list, the following step is to figure out how everything will fit into the garden.
Before sowing a single seed, it is helpful to sketch a map of the garden so you know how many seedlings you will need, where they will be planted, and how you can keep each bed producing all through the growing season.
Don’t be tempted to overcrowd your garden. Each plant requires a certain amount of space to grow healthy and produce an abundant harvest. Plants that are too close together will compete for nutrients, moisture, and airflow.
Overcrowded plants will actually produce less and become more susceptible to pests and diseases. Follow the recommended plant spacing specified on the seed packages.
It is beneficial to rotate plant families from one garden bed to another each growing season. Vegetables that are in the same family use similar nutrients and are vulnerable to the same pests and diseases. Planting different crop families from year to year helps to avoid depleting the soil and prevents crop specific pests and diseases from building up from one season to the next. In my garden, I focus on five vegetable plant families for rotation planning purposes:
The plants in each family are grouped together and planted in the same beds, so I can easily move them to a different bed the following year. Other vegetables such as lettuce, corn, carrots, and herbs are worked in where there is room, but I try not to plant them in the same spots two years in a row.
Tall trellised plants such as peas, pole beans, and indeterminate tomatoes are limited to the north end of the garden beds, so they don’t shade other plants.
Even in my Maine Zone 5 garden, I can grow up to three crops in the same garden space if schedule carefully. Quick growing crops such as spinach, lettuce, and other various greens can be planted in spring. Once the warmer weather arrives, spring greens usually turn bitter and bolt. These can be removed, fed to the chickens, and the space used to grow bush beans. Once the bush beans are finished producing, a fall crop of spinach, lettuce, and other cool-season crops are planted.
The inventory of the preserved garden bounty from the previous year also factors into the amount of plants in the plan. I don’t weigh my harvests, but do keep notes on the number of plants grown from year to year. At the end of winter, I inventory what is left in storage and decide if I need to increase or decrease the number of plants grown to provide us with enough preserved food until the following years garden begins to produce.
Planning begins with a blank garden diagram and the list of plants that you want to grow.
Before you begin plotting out your garden layout, review the list of crops you want to grow, decided roughly how many plants of each vegetable you would like to raise, and review the seed package to see how much area each plant will need.
The way you approach mapping out your garden beds will depend on your priorities.
For example, we rely heavily on canned tomato sauce, canned salsa, and frozen tomatoes to use in soups and stews. So tomatoes, peppers, onions, and garlic are considered necessities in the garden and take priority on the garden space.
I begin with these crops and plot out where they will be planted for the new season. Then I move on to other crops that will need trellis supports and extra space to grow. Finally, I fill in with short seasoned spring crops along with what will be planted once these crops are finished.
First, make a sketch of the garden area showing the dimensions of your garden beds. This can be done on a computer program or simply drawn out on graph paper.
Refer to your seed list and begin arranging the crops in the garden map. Use square foot garden spacing or the recommended space between plants indicated on the back of your seed package to estimate how many plants you can grow in an area.
Start plotting your garden with the crops you consider important. For example, tomatoes, peppers, onions, and garlic are very high value in our garden. These are plotted first on my garden map to ensure there is plenty of room to grow enough of these crops for preserving.
Remember to account for crop rotation and avoid planting the same plant families in the area they grew last year.
Move on to crops that need trellis supports to grow. Remember tall crops should grow on the north side of your beds, so they don’t shade other plants.
Plan out where you will grow your indeterminate tomatoes, cucumbers, pole beans, peas, and other crops that will benefit growing with supports.
Vining crops, such as squash, pumpkins, and melons will need plenty of room to sprawl. Be sure to locate these plants in an area where they can grow long vines without smothering other plants. I like to plant these along the edges of my garden beds and let the vines trail out into the paths if they need to.
Finally, fill in with short seasoned spring crops along with what will be succession planted in summer and fall once these crops are finished. For example, spinach, lettuce, and salad greens will grow in spring, and then replant the beds with bush beans when the spring crops are finished growing, followed by cool season crops again in fall.
Tuck in a few herbs and flowers where space allows, but avoid overcrowding your plants so they have plenty of space to grow strong.
There you have it! A general idea of how your vegetable garden will be planted in the spring. This plan may change come planting time and as the season progresses, but this is great starting point.
Mapping the garden beds each year will help give you a plan to follow, making it easy to figure out the amount of seeds and seedlings you will need to fill the space.
In addition, mapping the garden beds provides a record of what was planted in each location from year to year to help with crop rotation for next year.

Whether you are new to growing your own food or have been growing a vegetable garden for years, you will benefit from some planning each year. You will find everything you need to organize and plan your vegetable garden in my PDF eBook, Grow a Good Life Guide to Planning Your Vegetable Garden.

Mucho mi se đasvi! #hajprobaj
Our brains are fast to picture differences between males and females, probably because these differences are everywhere in nature. Popular examples might include the manes and antlers of lions and deer, which are specific to males, or maybe the striking sexual differences in coloration in many birds (think of the classic peacock example). Besides these illustrative cases, size differences between the sexes might be even easier for us to accept as a common pattern in nature. Males are, on average, larger than females in elephants, pheasants, iguanas, and in our own species. Females, however, take the role of the larger sex in other animals like spiders, snakes, and many bird species. In any case, I think one could conclude that we are familiar with the idea of males and females being phenotypically different, and that we are especially aware of sexual differences in size.
Going a step further, I think we even have a general idea of why these differences exist, at least in the case of size differences between sexes (which I will now refer to as sexual size dimorphism, or SSD) and especially in the case where males are larger than females. “Males are larger because they need to be stronger” might be a stereotyped idea, but it is ultimately true in many cases as males usually need to physically compete with other males to get access to reproduction.
Now, if we go a step further, I think things start to get muddy. To recapitulate: (1) we understand that there are size (and other) differences between males and females and (2) we have some idea of why. But an idea that is vastly unknown to people is that SSD can vary among related species and populations. Male deer are larger than female deer, probably because of the need to be physically stronger (or appear to be so), but why are some deer populations more dimorphic than others?
That is the question at the heart of our new paper, in which we studied the variation in SSD and shape dimorphism across several populations of the green anole (Anolis carolinensis), a species that shows male-biased SSD (i.e., males are larger than females), and whose males are known to show territorial and aggressive behavior in the context of intrasexual competition. So, we know that in these lizards (1) males are larger than females and (2) we have a good idea of why, but we don’t really know how or why SSD varies among populations.
Biologists have been fascinated by the evolution of SSD for a long time and have tried to determine what might cause variation in SSD among related species and populations. Thanks to all those decades of previous research, we actually know there are some patterns of SSD that appear repeatedly in nature, meaning that sometimes the variation in SSD actually follows certain rules. The most famous of these patterns is Rensch’s rule, which originally stated that male-biased SSD increases with species size. Previous works (e.g., De Lisle and Rowe, 2013) suggest that Rensch’s rule can arise when selection on male body size has been stronger than on female body size, like cases where a large size is of utter importance in male-male competition, for example.
There is some evidence pointing towards anoles following Rensch’s rule, which makes sense as most species show male-biased SSD and some degree of territoriality (e.g., Siliceo-Cantero et al., 2016). However, there is no direct evidence of the rule being followed intraspecifically in A. carolinensis, so we tested and confirmed this in the paper. Notice that Rensch’s rule is confirmed by a slope <1 in a regression of female size on male size:
Anolis carolinensis follows Rensch’s rule. The solid black line indicates a 1:1 relationship such that populations falling in that line should have, on average, males and females of the same size (none does, because males are larger than females in all populations). In this plot, a slope <1 when regressing female on male size indicates Rensch’s rule, meaning that as the average body size in a population increases, male-biased sexual size dimorphism (distance between the points and the 1:1 line) also increases. We ran two sets of analyses in the paper, with and without two particular populations from Florida (read paper for details), and in both cases Rensch’s rule was confirmed.
This is a good first step! We now know that variation in SSD in A. carolinensis follows a pattern. Now we can continue asking ourselves what processes can result in such pattern.
The evolution of SSD will naturally depend on factors affecting size evolution, especially when males and females respond differently to them. Let me introduce you to another macro-pattern: Bergmann’s rule. This rule states that larger sizes should evolve at higher latitudes and/or colder climates among related species or populations as a way to optimize the temperature conservation of the body. Nonetheless, some evidence suggests that the rule should be inverted for squamates, which depend on external sources of energy to regulate their body temperature. Focusing on this latter scenario, imagine how body size increases towards the equator. Now, what if it does so differently for males and females? Specifically, what if the rate of size increase is higher for males than for females? Exactly, we end up with a latitudinal version of Rensch’s rule (see Blanckenhorn et al., 2006 for a pioneering test of this idea).
In our paper we tried to disentangle the causes for the observed pattern of Rensch’s rule in A. carolinensis. One possibility is that populations of the species follow the reversed Bergmann’s rule, meaning that larger sizes are favored at lower latitudes, while simultaneously male body size is being affected by sexual selection. In this case, both male and female body size should increase towards the equator as a response to environmental selection, but males should do so at a faster rate because of the additional effect of constant sexual selection (as the example at the end of the previous paragraph). Notice that in this scenario SSD is lower at higher latitudes because there is a conflict between sexual selection, favoring larger sizes in males, and environmental selection, favoring smaller sizes (see panels C and G in the figure below).
Alternatively, environmental selection might not have any direct effect on body size, and only a latitudinal version of sexual selection might be at work. For example, sexual selection might be more intense at lower latitudes with higher temperatures, causing males to evolve larger sizes towards the equator and, consequently, higher SSD (check Tarr et al., 2019 for a nice test of this hypothesis). The only difference between this and the previous scenario should be the latitudinal patterns of female body size. In the absence of environmental selection, which should normally act on both sexes, female body size shouldn’t be related to latitude or temperature (see panels D and H in the figure below).
Two alternative hypotheses. In C and G: Sexual size dimorphism is driven by the simultaneous effect of climate-associated selection and sexual selection. In D and H: Sexual size dimorphism is driven by the sole effect of climate-associated sexual selection acting on male body size.
Although it took me some lines to reach this point, the main results are actually pretty simple. Of the two proposed scenarios, our results support the one in which the main driver of SSD evolution in A. carolinensis is latitudinally-variable sexual selection (i.e., sexual selection favors larger body size in males, but its strength varies with latitude/temperature) as female body size was not related to environmental temperature:
The origin of Rensch’s rule in Anolis carolinensis. Only male body size (black dots) changes with temperature (here PC1climate), supporting one of the hypotheses.
Interestingly, one could say in this case that Rensch’s rule is a consequence of only males following the inversed Bergmann’s rule (increase in size with temperature), although not for reasons related to temperature conservation.
In this paper we also measured shape dimorphism considering three sets of traits: head, limbs, and pelvis/trunk. I will not go too deep into this part, but I will say that we were interested to see how shape dimorphism in these traits was related to SSD. We had some hypotheses regarding these relationships. For example, if the process behind the Rensch’s rule pattern in populations of the green anole was temperature-dependent sexual selection, we could expect shape dimorphism in head traits (which male lizards use to fight each other) to align with SSD (i.e., both SSD and head dimorphism should be positively related). We had no strong expectations regarding shape dimorphism in limb and pelvis/trunk morphology, but what we found was nonetheless interesting:
Relationships between size and shape dimorphism. Panels show sexual shape dimorphism (SSHD) in head (A), pelvis/trunk (B), and limb traits (C). Solid lines represent significant fitted models.
Head shape dimorphism was positively associated with SSD, supporting the latitudinal sexual selection hypothesis. No pattern was found for pelvis/trunk traits, and limb dimorphism was actually negatively related to SSD. Some more extended discussion of these patterns can be found in the paper, but I particularly like the inverse relationship between SSD and limb dimorphism. Maybe this points toward alternative ways green anoles use to avoid intersexual competition for microhabitat use (maybe both differences in size and differences in limb morphology allow males and females to use separate spatial niches)? As usual, only more research will tell…
