A heavy lift helicopter named “Iron Maiden” drops hundreds of gallons of water near Refugio Road Thursday as firefighters battle the ongoing Alisal Fire near the Gaviota Coast.

Alisal Fire crews achieved 11% containment by Thursday evening, up from 5% that morning. The blaze is over 16,801 acres as of the evening update — the same estimate given Thursday morning. Highway 101 reopened at 6 p.m. Thursday after Caltrans and fire departments repaired guardrails and sign posts. The adjacent railway reopened two hours earlier. Although these passageways are open, the evacuation orders remain. Attacking the fire from the air remained a main strategy as three of Southern California Edison’s four Quick Reaction Force arrived from Los Angeles, Orange and Ventura counties alongside a mobile retardant base and air attack platform.

SR 154 crowded before Highway 101 reopens

By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

State Route 154 remained crowded with heavy traffic before Highway 101 reopened Thursday evening. The highway was previously closed as a result of the Alisal Fire. Officials closed the portion

of Highway 101 between State Route 1 and Winchester Canyon Road/Cathedral Oaks on Monday evening as the fire made its way toward the coast. During the highway’s closure, officials directed travelers to travel via State Route 154 or Interstate 5. During the 101 closure, the California Highway Patrol warned motorists to expect

66833 00050

“heavier than normal” traffic going both ways on State Route 154. On Thursday, Jonathan Gutierrez, the public information officer for CHP Santa Barbara, said it was taking motorists about 50 minutes to get from Santa Ynez to Santa Barbara and about 40 minutes from Santa Barbara to Santa Ynez.

Mr. Gutierrez told the NewsPress that there have been a few traffic incidents on State Route 154 this week, though the increased presence of CHP officers has helped “keep traffic in order.” He added that incidents have “slowed down” on State Route 154 because people are driving at decreased speeds. When driving on State

Route 154, CHP recommends that drivers “use the recycle or recirculate mode to avoid drawing smoky air into the car,” Mr. Gutierrez said. The agency is also recommending that drivers drink plenty of fluids while commuting in smoky areas to keep their respiratory membranes moist. To keep up with the latest

information from CHP, follow the agency on Twitter @CHP_ SantaBarb, on Instagram at chp_ santabarbara or on Facebook at CHP - Santa Barbara. For updates on the latest evacuations and road closures, visit readysbc.org/alisal-fire. email: mhirneisen@newspress. com

Landon Lassahn led the Pirates with 5 goals, followed by Addison Hawkins and Gunnar Johnson with two goals each. Joel Pakulski, Cristian Sotelo and Mason Murphy scored 1 each. “Gunnar Johnson (4 saves) and Hale Durbiano (1 save) split time in the goal,” Head Coach Jake Kalkowski told the News-Press in an email. The Pirates are now 1-3 in the Channel League and 13-12 overall. The water polo team will take on Cabrillo again during the league tournament on Oct. 26. CARPINTERIA SPLITS GAMES IN VOLLEYBALL Carpinteria’s Frosh-Soph

Westmont’s Men’s and Women’s Cross Country teams both competed this past Saturday at the PomonaPitzer Invitational down in Claremont. The women’s team found great success, finishing second overall out of 11 schools, while the men finished in sixth respectively. “The women ran really well,” said Westmont head coach Russell Smelley. “They had a team spread only ten seconds greater than their race at The Master’s, and this course was a thousand meters longer too. Their team performance should move them into the top 20.” Leading the way for the women’s team was Anneline Breytenbach and Kari Anema, who finished ninth and tenth overall respectively. Breytenbach completed the race in 22:31.7, while Anema came in seconds after with a time of 22:35.7. Another pair of Warriors came in back-to-back in 26th and 27th, sisters Madden and Abigail Hundley. Madden, the junior NAIA All-American, finished the race in 23:32.1,

while freshman Abigail came in right on her sister’s heels with a time of 23:32.6. Rounding out the top-five for the Warriors was freshman Landon Torres, who completed the race in 23:44.7. On the men’s side of things, junior Garrett Miller was the first Warrior to cross the finishing line, coming in 21st place with a time of 25:46.1. Zola Sokhela finished in 36th place with a time of 26:17.9, while Adam King came in soon-after with a time of 26:28.2. Jack Vanden Heuvel and Danny Rubin came in back-toback to close out Westmont’s top five, with Vanden Heuvel finishing the race in 26:56.8 and Rubin finishing in 27:01.2. “Garret Miller continues to impress,” said Smelley, “and right now the men are gaining race experience and confidence that is going to help them get ranked in the future.” Both teams are back in action later this month, when they travel to Rocklin on Oct. 23 to compete in the William Jessup Invitational.

TRAFFIC, CRIME & FIRE BLOTTER Man sentenced to 27 years SANTA BARBARA — Scott Robert Fleming, who was previously found guilty in Santa Barbara County of multiple violent crimes, was sentenced Thursday to 27 years in state prison. District Attorney Joyce E. Dudley announced the sentencing in a news release, which explained that her office sought the maximum sentence because of a number of aggravating factors. Those included the defendant’s extensive criminal history involving assaultive conduct and his prior strike conviction. A jury previously found Mr. Fleming guilty of voluntary manslaughter, assault with force likely to produce great bodily injury and battery causing serious bodily injury, as well as a special allegation for personally inflicting great bodily injury in the killing of Eric Romero. These charges stemmed from

an assault in Carpinteria during the early morning of July 20, 2019. After various altercations between a group of friends, the defendant turned on Mr. Romero, who was trying to de-escalate the situation. The defendant assaulted Mr. Romero, rendering him unconscious and causing him to fall back and hit his head on the concrete, the District Attorney’s Office explained in its news release. Mr. Romero succumbed to his injuries several hours later at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital. The defendant fled the scene shortly after the assault and was apprehended by Sheriff’s Detectives several days later in Ventura. “Justice was served in this case as a direct result of a thorough investigation by the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office and a detailed and rigorous prosecution team led by Senior Deputy District Attorney Kevin Weichbrod,” Ms. Dudley said. — Dave Mason

A Food and Drug Administration advisory panel on Thursday unanimously recommended giving Moderna’s COVID-19 booster to people 65 and older and other vulnerable Americans. The recommendation, which came from the FDA’s Vaccine and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee, says that elderly citizens and younger adults with health problems or occupations that put them at increased risk for getting COVID-19 should receive a halfdose booster shot of the Moderna vaccine at least six months after finishing the two-dose series. The recommendation is nonbinding but could help pave the way for a portion of the 69 million Americans who received the Moderna series to get a booster. The FDA is set to consider this recommendation from the panel later this week. The agency will also be discussing a booster shot of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. The advisory panel will discuss the J&J booster during a meeting today. The recommendation comes as the nation is seeing an overall decline in COVID-19 cases, though rates are still averaging 90,000 new infections and 1,800 deaths per day. After the delta variant caused

a surge in cases at the tail end of the summer, data from the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department show that cases are trending downward locally. On Thursday, the department reported 64 new cases of COVID-19 and two additional deaths of residents who lived in Santa Maria. The individuals who died were over the age of 70 and had underlying health conditions, according to the Public Health Department. Across the county, officials reported 26 new cases in Santa Maria, 10 new cases in Santa Barbara, five new cases in Lompoc and four new cases in unincorporated Goleta Valley and Gaviota, and the North County unincorporated areas. Three new cases were reported in Goleta, Orcutt and the South Coast area including Carpinteria, and one new case was reported in both Isla Vista and the Santa Ynez Valley. Four cases were pending. On Thursday, the department reported that 37 people were hospitalized for COVID-19, and 15 of those patients were recovering in the ICU. According to the latest vaccination data, 77.7% of eligible 12-and-older residents are at least partially vaccinated, and 69.7% are fully vaccinated. Of the entire county population, 59% of people are fully vaccinated.

Arroyo Hondo prepares for regeneration By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Arroyo Hondo Preserve, a 782acre canyon located between Refugio State Beach and Gaviota Beach, suffered damage from the Alisal Fire. Plants, trees and utility poles burned. Water lines, a well pump and the well’s solar line were damaged by the fire and firefighters’ dozer work on the property. Historic adobe, the discovery barn, family picnic area, and other historic structures and interpretive signs remained intact as of Thursday afternoon. Meredith Hendricks, executive

director of the Land Trust for Santa Barbara County, which manages the preserve, told the News-Press that staff evacuated Monday afternoon. “Once we know that everyone is safe and that the crisis is over, we will pivot into regeneration,” she said. “One thing that follows in fire is certain plants come up specifically after fire and need ash to regenerate.” The property has not burned since the 1950s. She said staff will “let Mother Nature take its course” and “replant where appropriate.” “From the photos I’ve seen, all those different plant communities have burned,” Ms. Hendricks said.

“The next concern we have after the fire is the water.” When staff return to the property, they will assess the land for hazards. The trail will remain closed to the public. She has spoken with firefighters who plan to return with a dozer and regrade the property where they had disturbed the land for protection. Ms. Hendricks believes the wildlife will make a quick return because of the stream that carries salmon from the ocean. “We know the water is a critical resource for them,” she said. Community members have offered to help, but the Land Trust is not yet sure what needs the

in the Hollister Ranch area, to the west of the blaze. Vista de las Cruces School, at 9467 San Julian Road in Gaviota, was included in the order Wednesday night. Superintendent/Principal Dr. Lois Peterson told the News-Press the school was downgraded to a warning area later, per the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office. She is working with

authorities to decide when to open the school’s doors. For now, the students and staff are on a pre-planned fall break. The school is a close-knit community with around 25 students. Dr. Peterson called families that live near the fire’s origin to make sure they are safe; they all evacuated earlier this week. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

property has. “People have a deep connection to the preserve,” Ms. Hendricks said. “We really operate it as a community resource, so people are very eager to support us as we regroup.” “COVID really reminded people how important it is to get outside. And this fire reminded us how vulnerable we are and how important it is to have places like this to create a natural buffer in our land,” she said. Firefighters have been “great partners” during this time, she said. The preserve is closed until further notice.

NEWS-PRESS ENDORSEMENT

Randy Rowse for Santa Barbara mayor

KENNETH SONG/NEWS-PRESS PHOTOS

Firefighters battle a hotspot off Refugio Road Thursday.

Santa Barbara desperately needs a leader who not only understands but appreciates business — the lifeblood that keeps the city running. We believe there is no one on the slate better to fill the position of mayor than Randy Rowse — a man who successfully ran a thriving business. This city has had the alternative for decades. As a result, one only has to look at the state of downtown today: “Homelessness” run amok, streets becoming increasingly narrow for cars but extremely wide for bikes and skateboarders, bulb-outs and the canyonization of Chapala. On the horizon, and probably blocking it, are high rises on State and Santa Barbara streets. Get ready for more massive structures built much too close to sidewalks and streets that would make Pearl Chase roll over in her grave. Not to mention, arbitrarily deciding to increase what was height limit of structures and allowing structures to be built too close to sidewalks and streets, dirty sidewalks, shoppers being accosted by petty criminals who never see the inside of a jail, the city’s micro-managing of those businesses that can still operate. There are too many arbitrary regulations being foisted upon those businesses still in business

— and more coming all the time. It’s taxation without representation for those who own businesses downtown and within the city limits. Business owners pay an inordinate amount of taxes and fees yet have no voting rights if one lives outside the city limits. Basically, it’s punishing those who bring money into the city coffers yet giving windfalls to those who bring nothing — spending $1.6 million to house 50 alleged homeless for four months in hotel rooms — paid for by those who have no say. If you don’t want status quo governance of Santa Barbara, vote for Randy Rowse. He’s the only candidate who can turn this city around.

Herman is survived by his children Rosa Nicholson, Anne (Bill) Solomon, Rachel Ortega (Hamid) Azam and Linda Orozco. He is also survived by many, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and generations beyond, including extended family. “If Tears Could Build A Stairway” If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane. I would walk right up to Heaven and bring you back again. No farewell words were spoken, No time to say “Goodbye”. You were gone before I knew it, and only God knows why. My heart still aches with sadness, and secret tears still ﬂow. What it meant to love you No one can ever know. But now I know you want me to mourn for you no more; To remember all the happy times life still has much in store. Since you’ll never be forgotten, I pledge to you today~ A hollowed place within my heart is where you’ll always stay. -Unknown Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, October 15, at Church of God of Prophecy, 1735 San Andres St. Burial will immediately follow.

CONLEY, Philip J., Major General

Major General Philip James Conley, Jr., USAF (Ret.) died peacefully on Thursday, October 7, 2021 in Santa Barbara, California at the age of 94. A native of West Warwick, Rhode Island, Phil was born on May 22, 1927, to Philip J. Conley and Lillian L. Burns. In his youth, he was active in Boy Scouts and earned the rank of Eagle Scout. Following attendance at La Salle Academy and Providence College, he was appointed to the United States Naval Academy, graduated in 1950, and was offered a commission in the newly formed (1947) United States Air Force. During the Korean War, he flew 100 combat missions as a forward air controller, serving with the Army’s I Corps and the 1st British Commonwealth Division. He then earned an advanced degree in aeronautical engineering at the University of Michigan. While living in Ann Arbor, he met Shirley Andrews and they were married in 1956. During his Air Force career, Phil flew over 4,200 hours in 86 different aircraft types, including the F-15, F-16, B-52 and B-1. His many assignments included service in the Vietnam War and as Chief of Staff of Air Force Systems Command. A highlight of Phil’s career began in 1978, as commander of the Air Force Flight Test Center at Edwards AFB, CA. While there, Phil was responsible for over 400 test projects affecting the US national defense posture. Major flight test programs included the B-1, F-16, F-15, A-10 and F-117, and many of these planes remain primary combat aircraft in the Air Force today. Additionally, he was the Center commander for the first space shuttle landing on Edwards’ dry lake bed, and on July 4, 1982 he hosted President Reagan’s visit to view the first shuttle landing on a conventional runway. Following Phil’s retirement in 1983, Phil and Shirley moved to Santa Barbara where Shirley had graduated from UCSB. Phil’s Catholic faith was very important to him throughout his life. Phil and Shirley were active members of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church, Montecito, for more than 30 years. Phil served on several non-profit boards including the Pierre Claeyssens Veterans Foundation, the Flight Test Historical Society, and the American Irish Historical Society. In 2007, Phil was inducted into the Rhode Island Aviation Hall of Fame. Throughout retirement, he travelled frequently to his family home in Rhode Island and to Ireland where, while tracing his family heritage there, he made many friends and felt very much at home. Phil’s Navy roots never left him. He rarely missed an annual Navy football game in Annapolis, MD. Phil and Shirley belonged to the Montecito Country Club and the Santa Barbara Yacht Club, and they supported many local organizations, including the Santa Barbara Zoo, Botanic Garden, and Natural History Museum. They regularly attended fitness classes together at the Montecito YMCA for over two decades. Phil was preceded in death by Shirley, his loving wife of 64 years, in 2020, and by his sister, Helen Wray. He will be greatly missed by his children, Sharon Conley (Bill Sener), of Santa Barbara; Kathleen Conley, of Arlington, Virginia; Anne Pellegrini (Steve), of Newport Beach; and James Conley (Elsa), of Saratoga; and his grandchildren, extended family, and friends. His family would like to express their deep appreciation to Dr. Dennis Baker, Heritage House Assisted Living, and Assisted Hospice Care for the exceptional care he received. A funeral Mass will be held at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church, Montecito, at 10 AM on October 16 with subsequent services and interment in West Warwick, Rhode Island. The Mass will be live-streamed at https://bit. ly/MajGenPhilipConleyJrFuneral for those unable to attend in person. Arrangements by McDermott-Crockett Mortuary in Santa Barbara.

By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

rturo O’Farrill and the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra are bringing their special beat tonight to UCSB Campbell Hall. The 8 p.m. concert will feature the ensemble performing with the Villalobos Brothers, known for their fusion of Mexican folk music with jazz and classical music. The concert is part of UCSB Arts & Lectures’ Soul of America series. Mr. O’Farrill and his orchestra teamed up with the Villalobos Brothers, to work on “Fandango at the Wall,” which involved an album, book and documentary. It was inspired by the Fandango Fronterizo festival at the TjuanaSan Diego border. You can see a trailer for the documentary at youtu.be/DYj7e8N1dos. Mr. O’Farrill, a Grammy-winning pianist and composer, leads the critically acclaimed Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra. The 18-piece ensemble blends its love for big band jazz with Latin music. The orchestra is known for its creative interpretation of Latin jazz greats such as Tito

Puente, Frank “Machito” Grillo and Chico O’Farrill, according to a news release. The orchestra also is known as a driving force for commissions for talented composers and arrangers. From 2002 to 2007, the orchestra was based at Jazz at Lincoln Center and performed many concerts there, as well as on national and international tours. During its residency there, the orchestra performed at the opening of the Frederick P. Rose Hall, the opening ceremonies of the 2005 U.S. Open and the inaugural week for Shanghai Concert Hall. The ensemble also led a weeklong educational residency in Yokohoma, Japan, and recorded a Grammy-nominated CD, “Una Noche Inolvidable,” (2005, Palmetto

Records). In early 2007, Mr. O’Farrill and the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra left Lincoln Center to develop new audiences for big band Latin jazz and create a robust educational program for young performers. Mr. O’Farrill launched the Afro Latin Jazz Alliance as a nonprofit to promote the performance and educational aspects of this special genre of music. The orchestra has played in recent years at The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, the Boston Symphony Hall, the Newport Jazz Festival, the Litchfield Jazz Festival (Kent, Conn.), The Joyce Theater (with Ballet Hispanico), Megaron Concert Hall (Athens, Greece) and the Taichung Jazz Festival (Taichung, Taiwan). The Afro Latin Jazz Alliance’s programs span the five New York City boroughs, with performances in venues throughout the city and with education programs serving school children throughout New York. During the last eight years, Afro Latin Jazz Alliance has produced more than 45 concerts as part of its annual New York Season, Please see O’FARRILL on B2

The Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra’s “Fandango at the Wall” is an album, book and documentary, all of which was inspired by the Fandango Fronterizo festival at the Tijuana-San Diego border.

Homes sought for SB Humane Lonely Hearts Club’s animals By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

At left, Suna, who has been with Santa Barbara Humane for 136 days, is part of the Santa Barbara Humane Lonely Hearts Club. At right, known for her sweetness and curiosity, Janine has waited 86 days at Santa Barbara Humane to be adopted.

Noah, 47 days. Janine, 86 days. Suna, 136 days. These dogs have resided a long time at Santa Barbara Humane. The truth is, some dogs or cats take a longer time than others to find a home. The reasons can vary from the animals being camera shy to needing more time to heal from something. To find them a home, Santa Barbara Humane, which has campuses in Goleta and Santa Maria, has created the Lonely Hearts Club. And thanks to donors, the adoption fees have been waived

for the dogs and cats in that club. You can learn about the animals at sbhumane.org/adopt, where the Lonely Hearts symbol is on their profile. They have waited longer than most adoptable animals, who typically move into a home after less than two weeks at Santa Barbara Humane. Some have waited months. Lonely Hearts Club member Suna has had the longest wait. The 3-year-old shepherd/ Norwegian elkhound mix arrived 136 days ago. The donor-funded behavior program made it possible for shelter and behavior team members to work one-on-one with Suna, who was nervous around

new people and uncomfortable around other dogs. “With love and encouragement from staff, Suna has blossomed into a clever and confident canine who loves playing with a ball and spending time with people,” Santa Barbara Humane said in a news release. “For other Lonely Hearts Club members like Janine, a 2-year old shepherd, the wait to find a family is the easy part,” the nonprofit continued. “Janine came to Santa Barbara Humane from Fresno, where she was found tied to a tree with another dog. Their chains had become entangled, and Janine could barely move. “Despite all the adversity

Janine has had to overcome, she is a sweet, smart, and curious dog who enjoys exploring and spending time with her human friends,” Santa Barbara Humane said. Dori Villalon, the Santa Barbara Humane chief operations officer, said the Lonely Hearts Club members are special and that the nonprofit wants to prepare their adopters for a successful experience. “Training classes can play a big role in keeping these animals in their new homes. Not only do the classes teach the dogs and their owners how to overcome behavioral issues, but they are a great bonding experience.” email: dmason@newspress.com

Diversions HOROSCOPE s PUZZLES

SUDOKU

Thought for Today

ARIES — Today may be taken up with doing a lot of lastminute errands. You may be called on to referee a dispute among colleagues, relatives, or neighbors. Depending on the nature of the spat, you may be able to broker a temporary truce, but don’t be too hard on yourself if tempers simmer despite your best efforts. Try and make relaxation a priority. TAURUS — Are you experiencing a shopping hangover today? Are you worried that you outdid yourself despite your best intentions? Don’t fret. You’ll be back on track soon. Cash will begin flowing again and your lifestyle won’t suffer. Instead of worrying about money, pay attention to your creative outlets. Follow that instinct and see where it takes you! GEMINI — Today’s planetary aspects may have you experiencing a little cabin fever. If you have the urge to go off by yourself for a while, do so. Try a new diversion. Drive down a country road you’ve never explored. Find some antique shops. You probably need a break from your daily routine. You’ll feel revitalized. CANCER — OK, the party’s over. Time to put away the sinful pleasures, the champagne, the chocolate truffles, and who knows what else. Take a good look at your home and get serious about putting things in order. A reality check is looming. Today would be a good day to get ready by tidying up the house and getting your brain in gear. LEO — You may be experiencing a wonderful openness to new ideas and grand plans. You’re enjoying an active imagination and your intuition is sharp. Trust in your selfawareness and confidence. If a friend with a negative attitude tries to dissuade you from your plans, keep it in perspective. Consider the source. Stay in tune with your initiatives and you’ll succeed. VIRGO — If you’re feeling restless today, don’t fight it. Use your energy to do something physical. Go for a walk or play tennis. Anything that helps you release the excess energy will feel good. It’s important that you pay attention to your body’s signals. Getting a good night’s rest will have you feeling refreshed

tomorrow. You’ll be able to deal with the tasks at hand. LIBRA — You don’t want to sit still for a minute. You may make people dizzy with your energy, and you’re itching to get away. You may be contemplating a long trip abroad. It’s fine to fantasize about all the choices out there, but don’t commit to anything today. Your imagination and spirit are a bit too high to settle on anything in particular. Just enjoy all the choices for now. SCORPIO — This would be a good day to pursue some new interests. Perhaps you’ve recently discovered a book that opens up new areas for you. If dreams recently punctuated your sleep, try to recall the general feeling you had and reflect on that for a while. You’ll probably realize it’s only emotional residue from all the exhaustion of the past few weeks catching up with you. SAGITTARIUS — Are you fed up with everyone around you now? Are you fantasizing about walking out the door and not returning? Go ahead - just for today! You probably need a break from everyone. Why not get a massage and float away for a while? Your family will be happy to have you back, especially if you left them with plenty of assignments. CAPRICORN — The main things you need to do today are relax and enjoy your day. You may be feeling a bit under the weather and have a trip coming up that doesn’t exactly thrill you. Stay alert, because you may receive an important message today from someone far away. You may also have a visitor arriving from out of town. AQUARIUS — Cupid may have struck you unawares. Your libido could be in high gear today and you’re ready for love. You look and feel great. Try your best to reach the one you love. If it isn’t possible to get together this evening, see if you can plan a romantic interlude soon. If all else fails, dive into a romance novel and escape that way. PISCES — Today you may come down from your recent high with a thud. If you feel irritable dealing with everyday chores, you’re not alone. Your mood may be exacerbated by a visit from an even grumpier friend. If you’re feeling cooped up with the detritus of family life, take a break and go for a long walk to clear your head and raise your spirits. Tomorrow is another day.

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.

NOTICE: This fictitious name statement expires five years from the date it was filed in the office of the County Clerk. A new fictitious business name statement must be filed before that time.

(SEAL)

T.S. No.: 9462-7154 TSG Order No.: 210186172-CA-VOI A.P.N.: 077104-022 NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED 07/25/2006. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. Affinia Default Services, LLC, as the duly appointed Trustee, under and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust Recorded 07/31/2006 as Document No.: 2006-0059824, of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of Santa Barbara County, California, executed by: HUMBERTO JAIMES AND MIRNA BERNABE, HUSBAND AND WIFE AS JOINT TENANTS, as Trustor, WILL SELL AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER FOR CASH (payable in full at time of sale by cash, a cashier’s check drawn by a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state). All right, title and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust in the property situated in said County and state, and as more fully described in the above referenced Deed of Trust. Sale Date & Time: 10/27/2021 at 01:00 PM Sale Location: At the main entrance to the County Courthouse, 1100 Anacapa Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93101 The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 7174 TUOLOUMNE DR, GOLETA, CA 93117 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made in an “AS IS” condition, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to-wit: $162,747.26 (Estimated). Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. 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 on 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. 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, T.S.# 9462-7154. 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 916-9390772, or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com using the file number assigned to this case, 9462-7154, 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. 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. Affinia Default Services, LLC 301 E. Ocean Blvd. Suite 1720 Long Beach, CA 90802 833-290-7452 For Trustee Sale Information Log On To: www.nationwideposting.com or Call: 916-939-0772. Affinia Default Services, LLC, Samantha Snyder, Foreclosure Associate This communication is an attempt to collect a debt and any information obtained will be used for that purpose. However, if you have received a discharge of the debt referenced herein in a bankruptcy proceeding, this is not an attempt to impose personal liability upon you for payment of that debt. In the event you have received a bankruptcy discharge, any action to enforce the debt will be taken against the property only.
