El Mercado de la Guerra canceled

Fiesta board cites concerns over increase in COVID-19 cases By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Old Spanish Days Board of Directors announced Thursday that the iconic Mercado de la Guerra has been canceled. Citing concerns about the spike of COVID-19 cases in the region associated with the Delta variant, the board made the decision to cancel the event. In a statement, Fiesta La Presidenta Stephanie Petlow said this was a very “difficult decision,” but a necessary one to keep the community safe. “We are concerned about our families, grandparents, children, and visitors in the community and we want to make sure everyone remains healthy,” Mrs. Petlow wrote in a statement. “Mercado is

important to all of Santa Barbara as a backbone of Fiesta, providing memorable moments for our families, visitors, and friends, stages for our dance groups, and a platform for the nonprofits.” “The Mercados are the heart of Fiesta; however, based on the spike of the COVID-19 Delta Variant cases and based on our extensive review with health officials, it is important that we keep our families, visitors, and community safe.” A favorite among Fiesta attendees, El Mercado de la Guerra featured live music performances, food vendors and a variety of booths from local nonprofits. To support the nonprofits that were signed up to participate in the Mercado, Mrs. Petlow said

Old Spanish Days will post a list of nonprofits on its Facebook page and encourage the public to donate online. Despite the cancellation of the Mercado, Ms. Petlow said the staff at Old Spanish Days is looking forward to a vibrant week of events and expects an exciting return of the Mercado in 2022. “We’re just looking forward to everyone enjoying Fiesta, spending time with family, eating at the different restaurants, just rallying together and continuing to have a good Fiesta spirit,” Ms. Petlow told the News-Press Thursday. The Fiesta is set for Aug. 4-8. For more information, go to www. sbfiesta.org. email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

Scaling back for cleaning

Biden enacts rules to increase vaccinations

School districts return to pre-pandemic protocols

Measures require vaccinations or testing for federal workers and contractors By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

President Joe Biden announced Thursday that all federal workers and contractors will be required to self-attest their vaccination status or undergo weekly testing as part of a new set of measures to increase the vaccination rate across the nation. Under the new guidelines, any of the nation’s 4 million federal workers who do not attest their fully vaccinated status will be required to wear masks, physical distance and comply with weekly COVID-19 testing once or twice per week. “If you want to do business with the federal government,

The pandemic has amplified parts of schools that previously didn’t prompt much discussion at school board meetings, such as maintenance. Recently, districts have been reviewing facilities plans heading into the 2021-2022 school year — including a switch away from cleaning protocols established early in the pandemic. Both Santa Barbara Unified and Lompoc Unified school districts have the same policy: Use pre-pandemic cleaning products unless a COVID-19 case is identified. Janitorial staffs made a stark shift at the start of the pandemic, identifying cleaning products

most likely to stop the spread of the mysterious virus. Lompoc Unified purchased foggers to thoroughly disinfect the classroom, coating everything. At the time, public health authorities hadn’t yet identified the virus as an airborne threat. As community members stressed over rinsing off Amazon packages, school districts zeroed in on disinfection and ventilation. Santa Barbara Unified retrained all its schools’ janitorial staffs and standardized procedures across the district’s schools. It also hired custodians from a third party to assist in the extensive cleaning. “The main drawbacks of constant disinfecting to keep Please see CLEANING on A3

The new guidelines for federal workers come as the latest effort from the president to slow an increasing wave of infections associated with the highly contagious Delta variant.

Senate advances infrastructure bill The Senate advanced a $1 trillion infrastructure bill on Wednesday, reaching a bipartisan agreement that will advance the bill closer to formal debate and possible passage. The Senate voted 67-32 to open further debate over the measure and outline the text of the bill, which remains largely unwritten. After months of bipartisan negotiations in the House and Senate, the bill won the support of all 48 Democrats, two independents (who caucus with the Democrats) and 17 Republicans in the Senate. The bill, if passed, would put $550 billion in new spending into transportation, broadband and structure improvement nationwide. Senators negotiated early Wednesday to cut billions in spending, trimming the bill down from $579 billion in new spending that was initially pitched by President Joe Biden and a group of bipartisan lawmakers last month. While the plan is coming in slightly under the initial $1.2 trillion originally proposed, President Biden praised the Senate’s procedural passage on Wednesday. The Senate’s vote will allow the bill to be amended and further discussed before reaching the president’s desk. “We’ve reached a historic deal on infrastructure, folks,” the president wrote in a tweet Wednesday. “The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal is the largest infrastructure bill in a century. It will grow the economy, create good-paying jobs and set America on a path to win the future.” Senate Republicans blocked a vote over the bill last week, citing concerns about a lack of bill text and funding details. While many details pertaining to transit and broadband are still forthcoming, senators leading the negotiations say the legislative text will be completed soon. The agreement, as it currently stands, includes $110 billion for roads, $73 billion for the power grid, $66 billion for railways, $65 billion for broadband, $55 billion for clean drinking water $50 billion for environmental resiliency, $39 billion for public transit and $25 billion for airports, according to the White House. In response to those hesitant about paying for the bill, Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, told reporters Wednesday that the “bill is more than paid for,” adding that he is “looking forward to moving ahead and having a healthy debate.” At this point, lawmakers are considering redirecting $205 billion in COVID-19 relief

“The investments being debated by the Senate will help put people to work and invests in roads and bridges, better public transit options, water systems, expanded broadband access, and huge improvements to our clean energy and electric vehicle infrastructure,” U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, said in a statement. “I look forward to deliberating the final product in the House and will work to ensure the bill delivers for Central Coast residents.”

funds to pay for the infrastructure bill, or utilizing $50 billion in fraudulently paid unemployment benefits during the pandemic. U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, has been a vocal supporter of this bill since its inception in the House. The congressman is currently fighting for $20 million to be included in the bill to fund infrastructure projects on the Central Coast, but because the bill text is still being written, it’s not certain whether this provision will be included, according to a spokesperson. The spokesperson said if direct funding is not included, it’s likely the Central Coast could qualify for grants funded by pool funds that would be made available through the passage of the package. In a statement to the News-Press, Rep. Carbajal said he looks forward to further deliberations on this bill and vowed to

continue working to channel federal dollars into Central Coast projects. “Thanks to the relief included in the American Rescue Plan, our economy is back on track. Our GDP has grown by 6.5% and has now exceeded pre-pandemic levels. Now we need to keep the momentum going by modernizing our infrastructure to meet the demands and threats that face us today,” Rep. Carbajal said in a statement. “The investments being debated by the Senate will help put people to work and invests in roads and bridges, better public transit options, water systems, expanded broadband access, and huge improvements to our clean energy and electric vehicle infrastructure. I look forward to deliberating the final product in the House and will work to ensure the bill delivers for Central Coast residents.” This latest bill is the first of two infrastructure bills Democratic legislators are aiming to pass in the coming months. The second, separate bill, which has been dubbed a “human infrastructure bill” by President Biden, proposes the allocation of $3.5 trillion to invest in child care, paid leave, education and efforts to stunt the impacts of climate change. In order for the proposed “reconciliation” bill to pass, every Democrat in the Senate would need to support it without Republican votes. While Senate Republicans have vowed to oppose the $3.5 trillion bill, Democratic lawmakers are aiming to pass both the bipartisan infrastructure package and the budget resolution that would allow for further discussion about the reconciliation process before the Senate leaves for recess in August. U.S. Sen. Alex Padilla, D-California, wrote in a statement that he supports the infrastructure package that advanced in the Senate, though there is more that needs to be done to improve infrastructure than just fixing roads and bridges. “We need to invest in our care economy, immigration reform, and transformational programs to combat the climate crisis,” Sen. Padilla wrote. “My colleagues on the Budget Committee and I are also hard at work on the second track of this infrastructure effort: a reconciliation framework that will deliver on the bold investments included in the American Jobs and Families Plans, and ensure that the jobs created through these investments are good paying union jobs. I’m encouraged by this movement forward, and am committed to delivering results for California and the American people.”

ISLA VISTA — Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s deputies arrested an Isla Vista man after a brief stand-off at 11:40 a.m. Wednesday. Deputies were attempting to check the welfare of a possible domestic violence victim in the 6700 block of Sueno Road. They determined the suspect, Jered Harwin, 36, was with the victim inside the residence. Deputies recalled a previous encounter with Mr. Harwin, who is known to possess firearms. Mr. Harwin allegedly refused to exit the residence, so law enforcement called for assistance from the Sheriff’s K9 and the Special Enforcement Team. The suspect surrendered and was booked in jail with charges of domestic violence, assault with force possibly causing great bodily injury, battery with serious injury, preventing or dissuading a witness and false imprisonment, all felonies. Mr. Harwin did not receive bail, at the request of sheriff’s deputies.

SBPD saves scam victim $50,000 SANTA BARBARA — The U.S. Secret Service worked alongside the Santa Barbara Police Department to save a 90-year-old victim who had wired $50,000 to scammers. The victim called officers, saying he received a phone call from someone claiming to be from the U.S. Social Security Office. The scammers convinced the victim he owed money to the agency and needed to pay it back by gift cards and a wire transfer. They harassed the victim, even threatening him with arrest warrants. The fraudulent callers posed as SBPD officers with an arrest warrant for the victim. The victim paid scammers $6,000 in gift cards and wired $50,000 to a bank in Thailand. Detectives found the suspect’s information and final location of the wire transfer. Law enforcement stopped the transfer and returned the money to the

We can do this, we all just have to do our part.” The president also encouraged school districts on Thursday to host at least one more pop-up vaccination clinic on campus to encourage eligible students to get their shots. He added that all students should be back to in-person learning this fall. This latest push to increase the vaccination rate comes just a few days after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention updated its guidance to recommend that all people, regardless of vaccination status, begin masking indoors. The president voiced support for the CDC’s decision this week,

Officers rescue overdose subject twice in 24 hours SANTA BARBARA — Santa Barbara Police officers saved a subject twice within 24 hours who overdosed in the restroom of a convenience store located in the 300 block of West Montecito Street. The first incident occurred around 4 a.m. Sunday when a

but reminded the public that vaccination is the best way to protect from disease. “A mask is not a political statement. It’s about protecting yourself and protecting others,” President Biden said. “Masking is one defense against the spread of COVID-19 — make no mistake, vaccines are the best defense against you getting seriously ill from COVID-19.” As federal officials and health experts continue to push for vaccination across the country, more than 100,000 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine were administered in California on Wednesday, according to Gov. Gavin Newsom. That latest total is the most the state has seen in a single day in the last three weeks. Santa Barbara County, which is currently labeled as having “substantial” disease spread by the CDC, is also continuing the vaccination effort. The county’s Public Health Department reported Thursday that 61.6% of eligible county residents 12 and older are fully vaccinated, and 69.8% of the

community member called 911 to report an unconscious subject. The dispatcher gave emergency medical dispatch instructions to the reporter while officers responded to the convenience store. Officers Saul Amezquita and Brandon Prelesnik administered Narcan, a life-saving medication, to the subject who then began breathing. Paramedics transported the subject to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital. Officers found opioid narcotic paraphernalia in the restroom. Police received an identical call around 1 a.m. Monday, where the same subject required aid for another overdose in the convenience store restroom. The dispatcher provided EMD instructions to the 911 caller Monday as well. Officers Salma Marquez and Scott McBeth arrived and immediately administered Narcan. The subject was not breathing and slightly blue. Officer McBeth began rescue breathing until paramedics’ arrival. The subject began to breathe and was transported to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital. — Annelise Hanshaw

population has received at least one dose. Of the entire county’s population, 52.1% are fully vaccinated. The county’s case rate has been on a steady uptick in recent weeks due to the Delta variant. On Thursday, the county reported 102 new cases of COVID-19. Officials reported 25 new cases in Santa Maria, 18 new cases in Santa Barbara and the unincorporated Mission Canyon and 17 new cases in Lompoc and the communities of Mission Hills and Vandenberg Village. Ten new cases were reported in the unincorporated Goleta Valley and Gaviota, nine were reported in Goleta, six were reported in Isla Vista, and four were reported in Orcutt. One new infection was reported in the Santa Ynez Valley and the South Coast unincorporated area of Summerland, Montecito and the city of Carpinteria. Eleven cases were pending on Thursday. email: mhirneisen@newspress. com

Under the new measures, small and medium-sized businesses will now be reimbursed for offering sick leave to employees to get the vaccine, according to the White House.

Fish afloat at Lake Los Carneros City of Goleta working to address cause

By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Dead fish washed ashore at Lake Los Carneros this week, and the city of Goleta is looking into the cause of the devastation. Goleta Public Works Director Charlie Ebeling gave the NewsPress the following statement: “The City is in the process of determining what caused the fish to die and what can be done to prevent it from occurring. The most likely cause is the low lake levels due to low amounts

of rainfall during the last rainy season, which resulted in a bloom and die-off of algae that depleted the dissolved oxygen in the water — thereby killing the fish. “Several hundred fish have washed ashore at two small sandy beaches on the shores of the lake. The City will remove as many fish as possible while determining the best possible solution to improve the condition of the lake for the fish. “Lakes in the area such as the Andree Clark Bird Refuge

in Santa Barbara and Lake Los Carneros have experienced high algae growth and die-off in the past, especially in years with low rainfall rates. “Residents in the area can be affected by the odor that sometimes accompanies the algae and fish die off. The best way to resolve the condition is wet rainy years that tend to flush the lakes and keep the algae growth relatively low. “When the conditions warrant, one solution is using aeration systems. Aeration systems

consist of pumping air bubbles from underwater piping systems. “While the City is working to determine the cause of the fish die-off, solutions such as aeration systems will also be considered. We will also work with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to meet applicable state regulations and to determine possible solutions.” More information is forthcoming.

classrooms safe were the herculean effort needed to provide the necessary equipment and training and the equally enormous task of making sure our lines of communication with all stakeholders were effective and informative,” said Steve Vizzolini, SB Unfiied’s director of facilities and modernization. CDC guidance seemed to change every week, said Samuel Blanton, interim director of maintenance and operations at Lompoc Unified. “When COVID first happened, the CDC was saying sanitize, sanitize, sanitize,” he told the News-Press. “In the end, it came down to sanitizing every night, which is what we do on a normal night.” He pays more attention to hightouch surfaces now but feels confident in newer guidance allowing pre-pandemic cleaning products. Both he and Mr. Vizzolini have more aggressive products readily available if a case is detected on campus. Classroom architecture also became important during the pandemic as districts studied

Steve Vizzolini, director of facilities and modernization at the Santa Barbara Unified School District, said constant disinfecting during the pandemic required a herculean effort.

classrooms’ ventilation. Santa Barbara Unified worked with Rachel Segalman and Todd Squires, Dos Pueblos parents and chemical engineering professors at UCSB, to test how air cycles through classrooms. The scientists demonstrated the experiment at one school campus, and custodians

replicated the test throughout the district. They learned that opening the windows and doors and running the existing HVAC system keeps the air fresh, exceeding the airchange guidelines from the CDC. Lompoc Unified uses fans to push air through the classrooms. All but six of the district’s rooms measured up to pandemic standards. One school contains a wing of six classrooms without windows. Mr. Blanton is in the process of getting windows installed using COVID-19 grant funds. The district’s board approved the construction, so he expects the classrooms will be ready in a few months. Lompoc Unified is also using grant money to construct canopies outside for outdoor classroom space. The district will be using tents as well for classes that want to learn outside. Santa Barbara Unified was not confident it would be granted state funds for its HVAC system, as most are under 10 years old, Mr. Vizzolini said. So administrators pinpointed another upgrade: touchless water-filling stations. They’ve installed 20 stations so far, with multiple on each campus, and

will install more as needed. Other current facilities projects for the district include a new multipurpose room, cafeteria, and locker room building at Santa Barbara Junior High. McKinley Elementary received a renovated multi-use space complete with an ADA-accessible elevator. The district began roofing projects at Goleta Valley and La Colina junior high schools. It is adding permanent classrooms to replace portable buildings at Adams and Monroe elementary schools. Mr. Vizzolini sees more portable replacements “on the horizon” at Cleveland Elementary, Harding Elementary, Peabody Charter School, Goleta Valley Junior High, La Colina Junior High and San Marcos High School. Lompoc Unified recently replaced outdoor lighting with LED fixtures and changed the sinks and toilets to waterconscious models. It is putting the finishing touches on a 604-kilowatt solar parking structure. Lompoc Unified starts the new school year Aug. 16, and Santa Barbara Unified begins Aug. 17. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

Team USA remained ahead of everyone in medal counts at the Tokyo Olympics Thursday. The U.S. had a whopping 41 medals, including 14 golds, 16 silvers and 11 bronzes. China was in second place with 32 medals — 15 golds, seven silvers and 10 bronzes. The Russian Olympic Committee placed third Thursday with 30 medals — nine golds, 12 silvers and nine bronzes. Japan was in fourth place with 25 medals — 15 golds, four silvers and six bronzes. Australia placed fifth Thursday with 20 medals, which consisted of eight golds, two silvers and 10 bronzes. In the race for gold medals, China and Japan are tied for first place with 15 golds. The U.S. has the second highest number of golds: 14. One of those golds was won by Thursday by Team USA’s Sunisa Lee, who shed tears of joy after winning the all-around gymnastics gold. Her teammate Jade Carey, who replaced Simone Biles, placed eighth during the competition at Ariake Gymnastics Center. Ms. Lee ended the competition with 57.433. Her victory means the U.S. has won five straight women’s allaround golds, starting with Carly Patterson in 2004. The silver in all-around gymnastics was won by Rebeca Andrade of Brazil, who scored 57.298. The bronze was won by Angelina Melnikova, representing the Russian Olympic Committee.

More than 80% of the survey takers live or work in Goleta. “We are very appreciative that so many people took the time to give their feedback. We received a lot of thoughtful responses that will help the City Council to consider the future of bike sharing in our community,” Goleta Sustainability Manager Cindy Moore said in a news release. The survey was available in English and Spanish and was open from June 28 to July 19.

Questions ranged in topics from current transportation habits to preferred location of bikes. The benefits most favored by participants were: positive environmental impact, convenience, reduced traffic congestion, fun and health. Respondents were concerned about street safety, access to bicycles and cost. Most preferred a program that operated regionally with a docking system. Respondents would like to see the bike docks at shopping centers, Old Town, parks, Santa Barbara and Isla Vista. The results will be shared with the City Council Energy/ Green Issues Standing Committee in September.

TREVILLIAN, Joyce Lorraine

Joyce Lorraine Trevillian died peacefully on July 27, 2021 at her home in Santa Barbara, just a bit shy of her 90th birthday. Born on September 10, 1931 to Gerald and Lottie Mae Morris in Ventura, CA, Joyce loved being the older sister to her two brothers, Gary and Richard Morris. Partnered with Gary, she cultivated a love of music and dancing, as the two won several local dance competitions. After graduating from Carpinteria High School, the draw to perform led her to attend The Playhouse School of Theater Arts in Pasadena. While she never professionally performed, she enjoyed few things as much as a well done musical, and made sure to expose her grandchildren and great-grandchildren to the arts. Joyce was blessed with three daughters, and worked hard to raise them as strong, independent women. Leading by example, she established her own property management company in 1985. Known affectionately as “Mrs. T” by her employees, she ran Kamunity Properties with the help of her daughters until the day she passed. Joyce loved animals, and while she only ever had dogs as pets, her love of all creatures was demonstrated by her life-size statues of jungle animals at her home. She was also a generous patron of the Santa Barbara Zoo and was honored to name one of the snow leopards many years ago. Her generosity knew no bounds, and she donated funds to many local school, theater, and sports programs. She was a lover of all sports, and would spend many hours watching whatever was on ESPN. Like her father before her, Joyce had Dodger blue running through her veins. She followed the Dodger baseball season closely and would often attend games at Dodger Stadium to eat a Dodger Dog, boo an umpire, and cheer on her beloved team. Despite her many interests, nothing brought Joyce more joy than her family and enriching their lives any way she could. By sharing her love of travel and taking them on trips to such places as Tahoe, Hawaii, Alaska, and Arizona, she created a lifetime of fond memories. A true matriarch, her happiness was deeply rooted in the happiness of her loved ones. Her family will miss their “Great” dearly, especially her strength, kindness, and most of all, her love. She is survived by her daughters Sheila Brotherton (Paul), Victoria Trevillian, and Sheri Gardner, as well as grandchildren Brandon Smith (Deirdre), Shannon Beaudette (Brandon), Tori Shyrock (Tyler), Jessica Self (Hunter), Justin Gardner (Tessa), and Austin Herrick, Her 12 great-grandchildren Callie, Carter, Lauren, Tobin, Eli, Tessa, Cailyn, Zachary, Sawyer, Ava, Elise, and Bo will miss their “Joyce the Great.” A private service will be held at Welch-Ryce-Haider Funeral Chapel.

YZQUIERDO, Lorraine

Lorraine Yzquierdo, age 75, passed away peacefully July 20, 2021, in Santa Barbara, CA. She was born one of ten children on March 23, 1946, in Bakerseld, CA to James and Petra Hernandez. She is survived by her children, eldest son Roger Mira, Jr. (Rita), Denise Cortez, Alicia Yzquierdo, as well as her eight grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Lorraine was an avid walker. She loved nothing more than long walks on the beach picking seashells and looking for sea glass. Her creativity expressed itself in the form of crocheting, sewing, cooking and making her signature potato salad. She moved to Santa Barbara and eventually made Carpinteria her home where as a single mother she raised her three kids. She taught each of us the meaning of hard work and sacrice. Our family would not be where it is today if we hadn’t had her as a mother and grandmother/Nana. She will be greatly missed. Per her wishes, no services will be held.

Viva la Fiesta! DAVE MASON/NEWS-PRESS PHOTOS

“It’s very exciting to be able to bring the community back and have these events,” said Old Spanish Days La Presidenta Stephanie Petlow about reviving traditions such as Fiesta Pequeña at the Santa Barbara Mission.

La Presidenta Stephanie Petlow talks about next week’s Old Spanish Days By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

t’s impossible to experience the Fiesta without a smile. La Presidenta Stephanie Petlow agrees with that. “You say ‘Viva la Fiesta!,’ you end in a smile,” she told the News-Press this week outside the Santa Barbara Mission, where Fiesta Pequeña, one part of the mammoth Fiesta, will take place outside after a two-year absence. Mrs. Petlow sees many reasons for the Fiesta’s everlasting appeal to residents and visitors alike. “I think it’s the variety that we offer, the community involvement when you have the dance studios working all year long at the Old Spanish Days,” she said. “It’s people running into their old friends they haven’t seen for a long time. You go to the events, and you say, ‘Hey, how are you?’ Fiesta is when old friends meet again. “And it’s people wanting to carry on the traditions our forefathers had,” Mrs. Petlow said. Fiesta, aka Old Spanish Days, is set for Aug. 4-8 at locations varying from the mission to the Santa Barbara County Courthouse Sunken Garden to De la Guerra Plaza. Last year’s Fiesta had to be scaled back because of the pandemic, but is coming back next week with major events except for the parade and the mercados. “It’s very exciting to be able to bring the community back and have these events,” said Mrs. Petlow, who will appear live at noon today on a Fiesta-themed episode of “Cork And Fork Radio 805 with Drew Wakefield” on KZSB, the News-Press radio station. (See the FYI box.) The Aug. 4-8 Fiesta events are free and outdoors, where masks are recommended only for unvaccinated people even under the latest guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Santa

Barbara County Public Health Department. Both entities now recommend masks for everyone indoors. Mrs. Petlow said Old Spanish Days is prepared to adjust to any changes in guidance from county and state public health officials. “We are committed to having a safe Fiesta for our community.” The Fiesta, aka Old Spanish Days, began in 1924 in Santa Barbara and has featured

everything from flamenco and folklorico dancers to mariachi and rock bands. Mrs. Petlow, who grew up in Albuquerque, N.M., and moved to Santa Barbara with her husband Brian Petlow in 1978, first became involved with the Fiesta when her daughter, Michelle, started dancing at it at age 6 and kept with it for eight years. Michelle was a Junior Spirit runner up a couple times, Mrs. Petlow said proudly.

“I was the mom, sewing the costumes and taking her around,” said Mrs. Petlow, who first volunteered for Old Spanish Days to help with its Fiesta Pequeña. In 2000, Mrs. Petlow was named an honorary Fiesta director and was named to is board the next year. Since then, she has served in roles such as vice president of entertainment and production, which involved everything from booking bands to taking care of details such as trash cleanup, and vice president of external relations. Mrs. Petlow, whose children are coming to Santa Barbara for the Fiesta, is looking forward to seeing this year’s flamenco, folklorico and early California dancing. “It comes from the heart. You see the emotions that the dancers have,” Mrs. Petlow said. She was referring to the joy on the dancers’ faces and in their dynamic movements. Mrs. Petlow added that she loves the colors in dancers’ beautiful dresses. For the News-Press interview, Mrs. Petlow wore a colorful Fiesta dress as she talked about the sense of history that comes from Fiesta events such as Noches de Ronda, a variety show at the Sunken Garden at the Santa Barbara County Courthouse. “It’s the history of California during the ranchera period. They branded cattle and after working all day with the herds, they would have a Fiesta, a nice party, to celebrate all the work they had done,” Mrs. Petlow said. “It was the camaraderie.” That spirit lives on today. “It’s what we want to do for the community,” Mrs. Petlow said, “to have a good spirit and to enjoy being together with family and friends.” email: dmason@newspress.com

Diversions horoscope • puzzles

By Dave Green

ARIES — Technology is highlighted for you today, Aries. It could be that you install a new phone or computer system, which will make life just a bit easier. Or perhaps you decide to take a course to learn to master a technical area that has been difficult for you to grasp. Whatever you do or learn today is bound to make you happier and more productive. TAURUS — You’re a social creature, Taurus, and today you can expect to attract a lot of attention. You’re feeling good and looking even better - and don’t think that people don’t notice! Make it a point to get out and mingle with others. You’re a talented, capable person in your own right, but you really shine when you’re with others. This is especially true today. GEMINI — You have a romantic soul, Gemini. Today your thoughts are on love and romance. You may be thinking of that special someone in your life, grateful that you’ve found each other. Or you may wish you had someone important in your life and spend a good part of the day plotting how to find a mate. If you’re serious about settling down, draw on all of your resources to make it happen. CANCER — Something big could be occurring close to home today, Cancer. It would be advisable to stay inside, if possible, or at least not stray too far. Traffic may be gridlocked and the sidewalks crowded with pedestrians anxious for a closer look. Use this selfimposed “house arrest” to do some neglected chores. Play music and have fun while you organize bookshelves and clear the clutter from your closets. LEO — You have hidden talents that may be revealed to you today, Leo. Perhaps collaboration with someone new has you doing things you never thought you could. Perhaps you discover a talent for writing, graphic design, or money management. You can’t help but delight in this discovery, as it opens up a world of new possibilities. You don’t need to take action now. Revel in your untapped potential. VIRGO — You’re a kind, caring individual, Virgo. Today your concern for others may be so strong that you take steps to do something concrete to save, if not the world, at least a few of the individuals in it. You may hear of a worthy cause that’s about to fold for lack of volunteers. You could turn outNovember to be just the savior Monday, 16, 2015they need. One person truly can make a

difference. You can prove it today. LIBRA — Today you may develop a deeper understanding of what’s really important to you, Libra. You may be surprised by what you discover. The material means far less to you than the spiritual. It may have taken you a while to learn this, but now there’s no going back. Your possessions feel like dead weight. The mere thought of your family and friends fills your heart with love and light. SCORPIO — Your life is likely to enlarge today, Scorpio, either through a new group affiliation or people you meet. You may be invited to a party where a whole world of new and exciting events opens up to you. You may be reunited with a good friend from your past who can open all sorts of professional doors for you. Be receptive to anyone and everyone you meet. SAGITTARIUS — Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than smart, Sagittarius. You’ll learn this today as good fortune puts you in the right place at the right time. You may meet someone who makes a big difference to your career. Perhaps he or she turns you on to a good job prospect or introduces you to someone who ends up being a business partner. Your life may change if you’re open to possibilities. CAPRICORN — Be open to any invitations that come your way or any new people you meet. Change is in the air for you, Capricorn, and you need only be receptive in order for it to come about. You may even meet someone at a social event who winds up being your partner for life. Explore all your interests and trust your intuition, for it will be a reliable guide. AQUARIUS — Today you may wake up and realize that there is serious room for improvement, Aquarius. If decorating isn’t your strong suit, why not call in the professionals? In the meantime, there’s a lot you can do by simply clearing away the clutter and reorganizing your bookcases in a more attractive way. Mingle some artwork and knickknacks among the books for a more interesting visual effect. PISCES — You tend to keep to yourself, Pisces, but today you could be inspired to join a group activity. Perhaps some friends have invited you to come out for drinks. Or maybe a neighbor asked you to consider joining a neighborhood organization. Whatever the scenario, all signs indicate that any group activity you join will be worthwhile. You will do some good and likely make new friends, too.

Thought for Today

O N M P B Z L G Y Q

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.
