James Kyriaco, who’s running for re-election to the Goleta City Council, is proud of what he said the city has achieved during his tenure. “We have accomplished a lot including: passing a homelessnes strategic plan, funding parking and sidewalk improvements, and securing $3 million from (U.S.) Rep. Salud Carbajal to fund needed repairs and improvements to the community center,” Mr. Kyriaco told the News-Press. “Additionally, (there were) building a new park in Old Town and pivoting from economic development strategy to a COVID19 economic recovery plan, which allowed us to devote resources in a way that protected the local economy and increased jobs,” Mr. Kyriaco said. He listed other accomplishments as passing the Goleta Creek and Watershed Management Plan, which protects and improves the environment. And he noted Goleta was the first city in Santa Barbara County to oppose the ExxonMobil oil trucking proposal because it would hinder public safety. Mr. Kyriaco is in his fourth year on the city council and is seeking the seat for the newly created District 2, which includes Old Town, Goleta Valley Cottage Hospital and Cabrillo Business Park. This is the first year that council members are being elected by voters within specific districts. Mr. Kyriaco noted that during his tenure, the Goleta City Council “approved the strongest inclusionary housing policy. “I also voted for new affordable housing in Hollister Village in early 2019, which reduced the overall footprint of the development,” Mr. Kyriaco said. “Instead of retail, the development became affordable housing, specifically one-bedroom and studio apartments.” “I am most proud of all of the work we have done to make child care more accessible to working families — including the COVID economic plan, which includes providing incentives for developers and property owners to include childcare as

a primary or accessory in their developments,” said Mr. Kyriaco. The News-Press asked Mr. Kyriaco about the sales tax the council voted to put on the ballot during Tuesday’s council meeting. “Ultimately we voted to recommend to the voters and give them an opportunity to decide if they want the city to have a new revenue source that can fund the approved budget (potential spending plan),” he said. “The sales tax would fund pavement improvements as well as infrastructure repair and upgrades.” “I want to complete our work in Old Town to improve sidewalks, parking and bike safety as well as continue efforts to keep Goleta fiscally sound,” he said. “Additionally I want to continue protecting the environment and continue our work to expand access to affordable and workforce housing and childcare,” said Mr. Kyriaco. “I bring over 25 years of local trusted experience working on issues that are of concern to Goleta as well as the south coast region,” Mr. Kyriaco said. “It’s my experience and record of accomplishment that has earned me the trust and endorsement of officials from all different political positions.” Mr. Kyriaco has been endorsed by Goleta Mayor Paula Perotte; Goleta City Council members Kyle Richards and Stuart Kasdin: Rep. Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara; state Sen. Monique Limón, D-Santa Barbara: County Supervisors Joan Hartmann, Gregg Hart and Das Williams; County Superintendent of Schools Susan Salcido; Goleta Union School District board members Sholeh Jahangir and Vicki Chen-Yaacov; Goleta Water Board members Lauren Hanson, Farfalla Borah and Bill Rosen, and Santa Barbara Unified School District members Virginia Alvarez, Laura Capps, Kate Ford, Wendy Sims-Moten and Rose Munoz. email: kzehnder@newspress.com

Dr. Van Do-Reynoso
COURTESY PHOTO
Dr. Van Do-Reynoso is leaving her position as director of the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department. Dr. Do-Reynoso will leave the department by the end of July, spokeswoman Jackeline Ruiz told the News-Press Thursday. Dr. Do-Reynoso is going to CenCal Health, where she will become its chief customer experience officer starting Aug. 1. Ms. Ruiz said no timeline has been set for the process to recruit a new public health director. She also said no interim director has been named.
Dr. Do-Reynoso became the Santa Barbara County public health director in 2017, succeeding Dr. Takashi Wada. During her tenure, her department has dealt with everything from the usual influx of flu to the health impact of the Montecito debris flow and the COVID-19 pandemic. Before coming to Santa Barbara, Dr. Do-Reynoso served as a Madera County behavioral health and human services manager. She earned her bachelor’s in biology at UC Santa Cruz, a master’s in health policy and administration from UC Berkeley and a doctorate in public health services and systems research from UC Merced. email: dmason@newspress.com

U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, joined a bipartisan majority of the House Armed Service Committee to send the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2023 to the House floor. The bill includes provision championed by Rep. Carbajal, which, if passed. will support operations at Vandenberg Space Force Base, and promote the welfare of U.S. service members and military families. The bill also would invest in research partnerships with Central Coast colleges and universities, and ensure the U.S. can protect its citizens and strategic interests at home and around the globe, according to Rep. Carbajal’s office. “Over my past three terms in Congress, I’ve had the privilege to work every year with my colleagues on the House Armed Services Committee to craft bipartisan legislation that invests in keeping Americans safe today and in the future; and that is what we have done again this year,” Rep. Carbajal said in a news release. “I’m proud that this bill also reflects the values and priorities of the Central Coast, its communities, and its servicemembers. “It supports our cornerstone
installation, Vandenberg Space Force Base, and the military families that call our area home — as well as the research institutions that are innovating to keep the United States on the cutting edge and protecting its interests around the globe,” he said. Provisions championed by Rep. Carbajal include securing a $7 million increase to the Spacelift Range System, which would improve the infrastructure at space launch ranges including the ones at Vandenberg Space Force Base and language supporting the Range of the Future initiative at Vandenberg. Additionally, Rep. Carbajal co-sponsored an amendment to the measure that would create a Space National Guard. The bill includes a $4.6% pay raise for U.S. servicemembers and a bipartisan measure co-led by Reps. Carbajal and Glenn “G.T.” Thompson that would create a new centralized Military Housing Feedback Tool for members of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families to identify, rate and compare housing. Furthermore, Rep. Carbajal co-sponsored an amendment that would waive naturalization fees for the immediate relatives of Purple Heart recipients. The amendment is identical to the bill Rep. Carbajal co-led with Rep. Michael Waltz last year:
Coalition, all Democrats, offer support of SEC climate-change requirements By BRUCE WALKER THE CENTER SQUARE
(The Center Square) – Eighteen state attorneys general, all Democrats, on Wednesday expressed their joint support of a Securities and Exchange Commission proposal requiring U.S. companies divulge the potential financial risks of climate change on their businesses. The SEC proposal, “Enhancement of and Standardization of ClimateRelated Disclosures,” was entered into the Federal Register last April. The federally mandated rule would force companies to disclose greenhouse gas emissions. SEC commissioners approved the proposal on a 3-1 vote. Republican Commissioner Hester Peirce, the lone dissenting vote, declared the rule exceeds the SEC’s regulatory authority. In her detailed dissenting opinion, Ms. Peirce noted portions of the proposed disclosure requirements are redundant with existing SEC rules, which she said already cover material climate risks. “The proposal turns the disclosure regime on its head,” she wrote. “Current SEC disclosure mandates are intended to provide investors with an accurate picture of the company’s present and prospective performance through managers’ own eyes. How are they thinking about the company? What opportunities and
risks do the board and managers see? What are the material determinants of the company’s financial value? The proposal, by contrast, tells corporate managers how regulators, doing the bidding of an array of non-investor stakeholders, expect them to run their companies. It identifies a set of risks and opportunities – some perhaps real, others clearly theoretical – that managers should be considering and even suggests specific ways to mitigate those risks. It forces investors to view companies through the eyes of a vocal set of stakeholders, for whom a company’s climate reputation is of equal or greater importance than a company’s financial performance.” Ms. Peirce also asserted the SEC does not possess the authority to impose the potentially expensive rule. “Embedding a risk-specific disclosure requirement in the financial statements erodes the important status of financial statements as objective, economically sound representations of a company’s financial situation,” she wrote. “These numbers and the assumptions that underlie them will be invaluable for stakeholder groups looking to force companies to pour more money into climaterelated expenditures, but their value to investors is unclear.

Carbajal secured increased funding for research programs that are conducted in partnership with UCSB and other universities including: $10 million for silicon-based laser research, $4 million for biotechnology research, and $9 million for cold and complex environmentsensing research.Additionally, Rep. Carbajal supported a $10 million increase for aerospace engineering research, which was done in partnership with Air Force Research Lab and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo.

The measure also includes an amendment added by Rep. Carbajal, chairman of the Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation Subcommittee, which allows members of the U.S. Coast Guard to count their service in the reserves towards their retirement. email: kzehnder@newspress.com

SANTA BARBARA — Sprinklers extinguished a fire early Thursday morning at the dumpster on the loading dock outside the old Sears building at La Cumbre Plaza.

to hundreds of public complaints and due to drought conditions, the city of Santa Maria is pursuing an aggressive stance against illegal aerial fireworks, which present a risk to residents and property. During the Fourth of July weekend, a high altitude aircraft will operate over the community using “video and GPS technology to pinpoint the launch of illegal fireworks,” said Santa Maria Fire Chief Todd Tuggle in a video tweeted by the city of Santa Maria. “Those property owners and/or occupants will receive a $1,000 administrative fine for launching illegal aerial fireworks. Only use ‘Safe and Sane Fireworks’ between the hours of 11 a.m. and 11 p.m. on the Fourth of July.”

‘The internet desperately needs an authentication overhaul’ ALLTHENTICATE
Continued from Page A1
Dr. Spensky, the CEO, discussed the idea behind Allthenticate in a news release. “The internet desperately needs an authentication overhaul,” he said. “Our current ecosystem is cumbersome, limits innovation and has numerous security shortcomings. I have dedicated my career to this problem and feel very fortunate to have the support to continue to develop our technology and bring it to the masses. “The feedback from our early customers has been incredibly positive, which is only compounding the excitement here at Allthenticate,” Dr. Spensky said. “The vision is to never use a key or password ever again. I don’t even have keys to my own office. It’s 2022 cars driving themselves. The idea is to
make it as seamless as possible.” Ms. Mounir said, “E-voting and unlocking cars could be completely replaced with the phone app. It is a phone app, called the Allthenticator app. There is a smartdoor reader installed by doors, which would enable unlocking without keys. The Allthenticator app also enables you to log into websites without passwords. “The company was born at the University of California Santa Barbara, and we opened a new office in Houston, Texas. We are trying to grow our Santa Barbara base and make as many Santa Barbara customers as happy as possible,” said Ms. Mounir. Allthenticate’s partners expressed confidence in the business. “Silverton has a long history of working with leaders who have pushed boundaries in identity, governance, and access management,” said Silverton’s managing partner, Morgan Flager, in a news release. “Upon meeting Chad and Rita, we
After meeting in 2019, Rita Mounir and Dr. Chad Spensky worked together to form a company that would create technology for a passwordfree future.
recognized Allthenticate’s technology as having the potential to be paradigmshifting for the industry,” Mr. Flager said. “What the team has accomplished with modest financial resources to date is impressive. We are excited and honored to partner with Allthenticate to accelerate our shared vision of creating a safer and more secure world without passwords.” Connor Sundberg of Amplify, one of Allthenticate’s investors, echoed that. “We’re excited to support the Allthenticate team in their mission to accelerate a truly passwordless future and what that means for the opportunity to improve and modernize the security stack for enterprises everywhere,” he said. “Companies use a range of products and often staple together solutions across password management, authentication and access. “Allthenticate creates a seamless command center for all of this.” email: kzehnder@newspress.com

Continued from Page A1 respect of the world. “We’re not respected as a country, he’s [President Biden] not respected, and this country is just not respected anymore,” Mr. Trump said, pointing to 40-year high inflation, record gas prices and the war between Russia and Ukraine. “This took place in less than two years.” With the average price of a gallon of gasoline at nearly $5 a gallon, Mr. Trump said Americans should only expect those prices to continue going up with Biden’s green energy policies. “With inflation the way it is, with fuel prices now at $6, $7, $8 a gallon and more” in some places, Mr. Trump said, “it’s going up higher, more than that.” Republicans have blamed President Biden’s restrictions on the oil and gas sector for record high gas prices. President Biden has blamed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February and oil companies’ thirst for profits. Mr. Trump also predicted that
the move to green energy at the expense of fossil fuels could mean widespread power outages this summer. “We were actually energy independent, energy independent, nobody thought that would be possible and soon to be energy dominant we would have been bigger that Saudi Arabia, Russia put together,” he told The Center Square. “By far, actually. Making a fortune. And having energy like nobody’s ever seen. ... Now you’re going to have, here’s another prediction, brownouts and blackouts all over the country this summer. “All these states that are going green. It doesn’t work, and wait until you see what happens.” Midcontinent Independent System Operator is warning states within its footprint of possible blackouts and rising energy prices that could cost families as much as $600 more a year. The announcement was just an advisory and was not the elevated “warning” or “event” stage, but they said the next advisories could require electric utilities to request energy conservation or possible rolling blackouts and power outages as Illinois looks to
shut down coal fired power plants by 2045, though some are closing. The grid services Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota and North Dakota, most of Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana and South Dakota, and parts of Kentucky, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana and Texas. Mr. Trump also criticized President Biden’s foreign policy, and warned of the potential for another world war after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. “I’ll give you another prediction, we’re in danger of a world war,” he told The Center Square. “You look at what’s going on in Russia and Ukraine, which would have never happened had I been president. It would have never happened. And it didn’t happen. and watch China with Taiwan.” Russia’s war with Ukraine is now four months old. The U.S. and European allies have provided weapons, and monetary and humanitarian aid to Ukraine but have not committed troops. The U.S. and NATO also have been closely monitoring China’s interactions with Taiwan. Mr. Trump will be in Illinois Saturday to campaign for Republican Congresswoman Mary Miller, who
because of redistricting is facing a tough reelection campaign against her current congressional colleague, U.S. Rep. Rodney Davis. “Well, she’s somebody I’ve gotten to know, she’s a high quality person, she’s been all for me all the way, and you have to remember that,” Mr. Trump said when asked why he was endorsing Rep. Miller over Rep. Davis. “She’s just a very good person and a very MAGA person,” adding that Rep. Davis had said some “bad things” about him at points. Because of Illinois’ population decline, the state lost a seat in the next U.S. Congress. Statehouse Democrats approved maps that drew Rep. Davis and Rep. Miller into a sweeping new 15th Congressional District that includes Quincy to the west, Aledo to the north, Jerseyville to the south and Paris to the east. It excludes East St. Louis, parts of Springfield and Urbana. Illinois’ Republican and Democratic primaries are Tuesday. With six Republican candidates running in the primary to try to unseat incumbent Gov. J.B. Pritzker, Mr. Trump said he thinks state Sen. Darren Bailey has a
shot to win. Mr. Trump hasn’t endorsed in the race, however. “Pritzker has been a terrible, terrible governor. He’s done just such a bad job with the lockdowns and with everything else,” Mr. Trump said. “But I think maybe Bailey would be the one.” Sen. Bailey faces Aurora Mayor Richard Irvin, entrepreneur Jesse Sullivan, Gary Rabine, Paul Schimpf and Max Solomon. On Chicago’s gun violence, the president compared the nation’s

SATURDAY
On June 18, 2022, Bill Shields, beloved teacher, coach, husband, father, grandfather and friend passed away at the age of 92 years old.

Bill was born July 21, 1930 in Newport, New York. In 1935, his family journeyed west looking for a better life. They settled in Pasadena, California. Bill did not have a lot of success as a Pasadena High School basketball player, so he decided he wanted to try amateur boxing. He was trained by the legendary blind boxing coach, Canto Robledo, in Robeledo’s backyard gym in Pasadena. During Bill’s boxing tenure, he competed in both lightweight and welterweight division tournaments. Bill won weight division championships in 4 tournaments. He was a finalist in every boxing tournament he entered! Bill was also awarded the Golden Gloves of Pasadena. During the Korean War, he was drafted into the Army in 1951. He served in General Ridgway’s Honor Guard, stationed in Tokyo, Japan. While there, he continued his boxing career as a member of the Army’s boxing team. When Bill returned from Japan, he used his GI Bill, graduated from UCSB in 1957 and earned a Master’s Degree from USC in 1962. (Bill was a lifelong Trojan fan. Fight On!). He was hired by the Goleta School District in 1957, where he taught 6th grade at Cathedral Oaks, drove the school bus and developed a boys and girls after school athletic program. He went on to teach at Foothill, Kellogg, Hollister and La Patera Elementary Schools. He organized the Valley Elementary League, where boys and girls teams, coached by fellow teachers and parents, competed against one another on Saturday mornings in Goleta. Bill’s school won championships in flag football, basketball, softball, volleyball and track. After 19 years, when the Valley League was no longer needed, Bill organized and coached noon leagues at Hollister and La Patera schools. What was unique was that these teams were all co-ed. He was truly a visionary coach by promoting girls to participate in competitive sports 15 years before the implementation of Title IX. His young athletes remember his love of sports and his caring attitude toward athletes and students of every ability level. Sportsmanship, fair play and citizenship were emphasized in his classrooms and on the field and court. Bill always said one of the highlights of his life was marrying his fellow teacher at Foothill Elementary School, Diana Grassfield. They enjoyed a marriage of laughs and good times for 40 years before her untimely death in 2006. Bill was recognized for his coaching and teaching by being inducted into the Santa Barbara Athletic Hall of Fame in 2002. He was also proud of the 3 PTA Honorary Awards presented to him by three different schools. His lifelong enjoyment of participating in competitive sports led him to play on various championship city and Goleta Boys Club basketball and softball teams. He played tennis into his late eighties. As Bill always said “All in all, it was a pretty good run.” Bill is survived by his son, Greg Shields of San Diego, Jennifer Frederic (Peter) of Paso Robles, his cherished granddaughters, Vanessa Shields, Jayne Bruno-Ramsay, Carolyn Bruno, Ann Bruno and his bonus grandsons, Jon Frederic and Michael Frederic. A special thank you to Esmeralda Bravo, Bill’s amazing caregiver of the last 3 years. Even when his memories were robbed by Alzheimer’s disease, he knew she was his friend and a “good gal.” Esmeralda, you will always be an honorary Shields. From Greg and Jenny: Our father was a visionary when it came to flag football. He truly believed that children should not be playing tackle football until they were more mature physically and mentally. He adhered to the belief that children should learn the fundamentals of football, to fall in love and respect the sport. He didn’t support children being burdened with the apprehension of the “next big hit.” In lieu of a memorial service, we have established the Bill Shields Scholarship Fund with Santa Barbara Friday Night Lights Youth Flag Football. His legacy will live on for generations on and off the field. If possible, please make a donation to his scholarship so that the children of Santa Barbara can continue his dedication and passion for the game. Thank you. santabarbarafnl.com. https://gofund.me/f4da3826.

A brown pelican takes flight from Butterfly Beach, where it and nine others were released by the Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network. A mysterious influx of the seabirds have been found sick along the Southern California coast, but locally, they’ve received care from SBWCN.
Soaring again Santa Barbara County Wildlife Care Network releases more brown pelicans after their recovery

A pelican is shown at the Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network hospital, where it and other pelicans received fluids, food, medication, warmth and supportive care.
n a recent afternoon at Butterfly Beach, brown pelicans walked toward the ocean and looked ahead at the horizon of the Pacific Ocean. It had been a while since they could fly, but now they felt the urge. And thanks to tender loving care from the Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network, the pelicans soared again — over the Pacific and on to their next adventure. SBWCN released 12 pelicans June 17 at the Montecito beach, and that was in addition to 10 that the nonprofit released previously. This week, SBCWCN released more pelicans, bringing the total to 52 formerly sick birds who are flying again. They were released throughout Santa Barbara County, SBWCN told the News-Press. Sixteen brown pelicans now remain in the nonprofit’s care. Pelicans have been rescued from all over Santa Barbara and Ventura counties. SBWCN said they were emaciated, weak and hypothermic. Most were lethargic and unable to fly or
“I’m so proud of our staff, volunteers and the entire community for jumping into action to help these pelicans” — Ariana Katovich even just move. The birds’ plight is a mystery. Sick brown pelicans have been reported along the Southern California coast, and the reason for their condition hasn’t been determined. California Fish and Wildlife is continuing its investigation. On May 14, the pelicans began showing up at SBWCN’s new, state-of-the-art Wildlife Hospital in Goleta. According to SBWCN, these seabirds are being found in unusual places, including roadways, fresh water pools and residents’ backyards. The nonprofit’s team of rescuers and volunteers have been transporting as many pelicans as possible to the Wildlife Hospital, where the birds have received fluids, food, medication, warmth and supportive care. It made all the difference. SBWCN could see that at
Butterfly Beach when the pelicans walked toward the ocean and did what came naturally. The birds, who were sick, now could fly. “I’m so proud of our staff, volunteers and the entire community for jumping into action to help these pelicans,” said Ariana Katovich, executive director of SBWCN. “While we’re still unsure what’s causing this emergency situation, we are continuing to take in these birds and help them in any way we can.” Donations are welcome for purchase of medications, fluids, food and additional supplies. To make a donation, go to www.sbwcn.org/don. To report a sick or injured pelican in Santa Barbara County or Ventura County, call the SBWCN Helpline: 805-681-1080. Updates on the unfolding situation can be found at www.sbwcn.org/ pelicans. SBWCN takes care of more than 4,000 patients per year including small mammals, seabirds, songbirds, raptors and herptiles. The SBWCN Helpline is available everyday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for animal emergencies and wildlife advice at 805-6811080. email: dmason@newspress.com and mmcmahon@newspress.com

For the third year, Alma Rosa Winery plans to host its annual “Peace of Mind: 10,000 Steps in the Right Direction” fundraising walk. It will take place July 23 on the grounds of Alma Rosa’s 628-acre estate located near Buellton. Alma Rosa Winery owners Bob and Barb Zorich conceived of the walk as a way to raise funds to support research and treatment for anxiety and depression. In its first year, the fundraiser was held virtually and raised more than $144,000 in support of One Mind and the Mental Wellness Center. Last year, the fundraiser raised more than $100,000 for the Mental Wellness Center. This year, the couple are pledging to match the first $70,000 raised in donations. The 10,000 steps walk offers a tour of the property, taking walkers on a 4.5-mile there-andback ramble through verdant wine country where Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah and Grenache vines grow. On-site registration will also be offered the day of the walk. Registration and parking will open at 8 a.m., and the walk will begin by 9 a.m. Some sections of the path involve rigorous quarter-mile inclines, so good footwear and physical fitness are recommended for those participating in the live walk. Registration for the walk is $55 per participant, which will be split equally between One Mind and the Mental Wellness Center, the two organizations the Zorichs have chosen

to support based on their contributions to mental health and wellness in Santa Barbara. Participants who can’t attend the walk in person are still encouraged to register and participate virtually by going for their own simulated 10,000step walk wherever they are located. People can also choose to support the walk’s mission by sharing the fundraiser online or making a direct donation to support the event. “We believe supporting mental wellness is a crucial part of maintaining a healthy, thriving community,” said Debra Eagle, general manager. “Mental Wellness Center and One Mind provide life-changing services that improve the quality of life for many people in the area. “By helping these two organizations do the critical work they do, we hope to help improve mental health care within Santa Barbara County. It is our honor to support their cause and help others do the same.” The Peace of Mind walk is not Mr. Zorich’s first foray into supporting mental health care and research. He also serves as chairman of the Hope and Healing Center and Institute and has previously sat on the board of the WorkFaith Connection of Houston. He also supports the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston and the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation in New York City.

Submersible in Santa Barbara
NEWS-PRESS FILE PHOTO
James Berry, an operations technician for the deep submersible rescue vehicle Mystic, answers questions in 1985 at Stearns Wharf in Santa Barbara. The 50-foot-long Mystic, one of the world’s most sophisticated submersibles, provided rapid-response submarine rescue capability from 1970 to 2008 for the U.S. Navy. If there was a submarine accident, Mystic or its sister submersible Avalon would rescue the survivors. Today the Mystic is in the U.S. Naval Undersea Museum. The museum’s website (navalunderseamuseum.org/dsrvmystic) explains that the DSRVs had a smart-vehicle system twice as complex as the one that guided the 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing. (By the way, the difference between submarines and submersibles is that the latter requires a mother ship for transportation. Submarines leave ports under their own power.)

Santa Barbara Humane offers tips for keeping dogs safe around water By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
Beaches, lakes, rivers and pools are all popular places to relax in the summer, and it may seem like a no-brainer to bring your dog along to cool off. However, there are a few key safety precautions to keep in mind before you dive into the fun. Santa Barbara Humane offers advice and resources that will keep you and your dog safe and happy during your aquatic adventures. • Remember that not all dogs can swim, and not all dogs that can swim enjoy doing so. Let your dog lead when it comes to getting into the water; you don’t want to force them into it. • Keep an eye on them as they swim. Even dogs that love swimming may get worn out by paddling around for too long. • If you are going out on a boat with your dog, you may want to invest in a life jacket for them.
Make sure it is fitted properly. A loose or unstrapped life jacket won’t help if your dog is struggling. • Don’t let your dog drink lake, river, pool or ocean water. While the fresh water from a lake or river may seem fine, there may be high bacteria counts or algae blooms that you cannot see. It’s best to bring along fresh water that your dog can drink. • Watch for riptides and high waves at the beach. Even when the waters look calm, there may be a riptide that could pull your dog out deeper. Remember that swimming can be strenuous, especially on hot days. Give your dog breaks in the shade so they can relax and recharge. • Wash your dog after their swim. Chlorine and salt can irritate your dog’s skin, so rinse them off after their swim. email: mmcmahon@newspress. com

Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

feeling happy and satisfied, Libra. You’re also looking forward to moving ahead. The downside of this period is that people who aren’t particularly trustworthy could decide to grab your coattails for their own purposes. Some might even ask for loans. Be careful about the ones you choose to assist. They might not be honest with you. SCORPIO — As your career dreams continue to unfold, Scorpio, you may find that there is a downside. First, there are new responsibilities and you might doubt your ability to fulfill them. Second, you might find yourself catapulted into the uncomfortable realm of office politics. Don’t let these matters put a damper on your enthusiasm. SAGITTARIUS — Recent spiritual breakthroughs might have you feeling both exhilarated and downcast. Your sensitive side tells you that this is a definite step forward on your spiritual path, but your logical side might cause you to doubt the reality of it. Take comfort in the fact that reality is relative, Sagittarius. CAPRICORN — Many of your personal goals have either been met or are in the process of manifesting, Capricorn. This has you feeling exhilarated. However, others around you might have their hands out. You might be asked to contribute to charities or make personal loans to people you don’t really know. AQUARIUS — More confirmation of career and business success could come your way today, Aquarius. You’re probably feeling excited and motivated to keep pushing ahead. You might find, however, that increased responsibilities interfere with your social life and wonder if your friends have forgotten you. They haven’t, but you’ll feel better if you eke out a few hours for friends each week. PISCES — Success on all levels is filling your life and making you feel absolutely wonderful, Pisces. The downside of this is that you might be a little too conscientious. Are you putting in a lot of extra hours? Be discriminating about this. Don’t work harder than you need to. You could stress yourself out to the point where you tax your strength too much.

HOROSCOPE ARIES — Hard work, enthusiasm, and dedication are now paying off for you financially, Aries. New opportunities could be opening up for you to profit from your artistic talents The downside of this is that you might be working so hard that you’re too drained to be creative, even though the inspiration is there. TAURUS — People close to you might be a bit worried about you, Taurus. Too much work might have you feeling a bit less than your usual self, perhaps even a little feverish and headachy. If so, this is a good day to take some time out, stay home, and get some rest. Don’t worry about sabotaging your success. It will continue. Take a break and get back to the helm tomorrow. GEMINI — All continues to go well personally and professionally, Gemini. You’re feeling strong and vigorous, but you might find that you’re a bit vague today. Your mind may not have its usual acuity, and you could be easily distracted. This isn’t a good day to start new projects. CANCER — Your high from your recent successes could have you wanting to go crazy purchasing luxury items you didn’t feel were practical before, Cancer. This is fine as long as you’re discriminating and don’t give in to impulse buying. This also isn’t a good time to overindulge in food and drink. LEO — Not only your own success but that of members of your household could have you on a real emotional high today, Leo. Your mind is likely to be buzzing with possibilities for future expansion, some of which may not be all that workable. However, you should allow yourself a few flights of fancy. VIRGO — Today may prove to be one of your busiest in a long time, Virgo. The promise of continuing success could find you spending a lot of time on the phone, sending faxes or emails, or perhaps making a few short trips around the community. You might not be able to reach everyone you hoped to speak to, however. LIBRA — Business and financial successes have you

SANTA BARBARA NEWS-PRESS
By TOM JOYCE (The Center Square) – The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection has completed the transition to peak staffing across the state to prepare for the upcoming wildfire season. Governor Gavin Newsom’s office says that peak staffing ensures all Cal Fire stations are staffed 24 hours per day. It says that doing so means that, “response capabilities are enhanced; all aircraft are prepositioned and staffed; and crews are staffed, trained, and working.” Additionally, Cal Fire has treated 110,925 acres to prepare for the upcoming wildfire season. “Although conditions have varied geographically throughout the state, weather conditions, fuel loads, and the number of fire incidents have guided the Department’s thorough response and overall preparedness moving into the summer months,” Chief Joe Tyler said in a press release. “Even as we ramp up our preparations for wildfires that are now occurring year-round, we continue to accelerate forest health and fire prevention projects throughout the state, launching more than 603 wildfire resilience projects from last year’s budget, ranging from fuel breaks to prescribed burns to fuel reduction.” Governor Gavin Newsom said the progress in preparing for
wildfire season is good, but it’s only a start. “California is taking aggressive action to protect communities and make our forests more resilient,” Gov. Newsom said in the press release. “There is much work to do, but in addition to our fire suppression efforts, we are laserfocused on scaling up investments and work to tackle this challenge head-on.” The California legislature approved early augmentation funding last year. Gov. Newsom’s office says that the funding has allowed CAL FIRE to staff 136 engines in the northern region (an increase of 64) and 126 engines in the southern region, an increase of 16 (earlier than in years past). Twelve exclusive-use aircraft are available statewide today, with four additional by July 1, which is on top of Cal Fire’s existing aerial fleet of more than 62 aircraft. Sixteen additional hand crews are operational now as a result of the budget augmentation for fire prevention and emergency response. Cal Fire is one of 22 state departments implementing the state’s $1.5 billion wildfire resilience program. As of June 2022, the program has committed $1.1 billion and embarked on more than 833 projects, including the Cal Fire projects. For more information on these programs, visit resources. ca.gov/Initiatives/ForestStewardship/WildfireResilience-Program.
By TOM JOYCE THE CENTER SQUARE CONTRIBUTOR
(The Center Square) – California may soon take an antiprostitution law off the books. State Senator Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco, sent the Safer Streets for All Act, Senate Bill 357, to Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk in hopes that he’ll sign it into law. The Legislature passed SB 357 last year. However, Sen. Wiener withheld the bill at the Senate desk. Gov. Newsom will have 12 days to decide whether or not he supports the law. It would repeal a provision of California law criminalizing “loitering with the intent to engage in prostitution,” according to a press release from Sen. Wiener’s office. “This criminal provision – arrests for which are based on an officer’s subjective perception of whether a person is ‘acting like’ or ‘looks like’ they
intend to engage in sex work – results in the disproportionate criminalization of trans, Black and Brown women, and perpetuates violence toward sex workers,” Sen. Wiener’s office said. Sen. Wiener said that he thinks his bill will help the LGBT community as well as racial minorities. “This Pride Month, as we see a surge in violence against and harassment of the LGTBQ community, it is more important than ever to get rid of a law that targets our community,” Sen. Wiener said in a press release. “Current law essentially allows law enforcement to target and arrest people if they are wearing tight clothes or a lot of makeup. Many of those impacted by this law are Black and Brown trans women. Pride isn’t just about rainbow flags and parades. It’s about protecting the most marginalized in our community. I urge Governor Newsom to sign

said in a statement. “Penal Code section 653.22 allows our patrol functions to enforce this section, and there are of course way more patrol officers than there are undercover officers available for extensive operations.” Fatima Shabazz of the DecrimSexWorkCA Coalition criticized the current law as racist. “SB 357 repeals a Jim Crow law that criminalized Black and trans people in public spaces,” Ms. Shabazz said in the press release. And Ashley Madness of the DecrimSexWorkCA Coalition said the current law is an example of police not improving public safety. “We hope that the Safer Streets for All Act will help people understand how policing does not create public safety and will immediately deprive police of one tool they use to harass and oppress folks based on race and gender.”

also vulnerable to the effects of greenwashing, which the Proposed Rule promises to address through its mandatory disclosures. In short, we believe the Proposed Rule is wellstructured to deliver to investors what they need to make informed investment decisions.”

However, it “eliminates an loitering offense that leads to harmful treatment of people for simply ‘appearing’ to be a sex worker,” according to Sen. Wiener’s office.

The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county wherein the real property is located and more than three (3) months have elapsed since such recordation. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. If the sale occurs after 1/1/2021, the sale may not be final until either 15 or 45 days after the sale date - see Notice to Tenant. Further, no TDUS can be issued until the sale is final. Your bid is subject to being over bid by the Tenant or “eligible bidder” after the sale and if your bid is over bid, your only remedy is to the refund of your actual bid amount without interest or payment of any other costs, expenses or funds of any kind or nature incurred by the initial successor bidder. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (916) 939-0772 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Website www.nationwideposting.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, 22-0001. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (916) 939-0772, or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 22-0001 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.
