Bill proposes remote access to courts

NEWS-PRESS SPECIAL REPORT

The road ahead for travel CDC deems air travel safe for fully vaccinated passengers

RAFAEL MALDONADO / NEWS-PRESS

The Santa Barbara Municipal Airport is currently seeing the highest numbers of travelers since the start of the pandemic, with 700 to 800 people a day coming through the checkpoints and departing.

A new piece of legislation is making its way through the state Assembly that would require courts to provide remote access for the media and the public during open court proceedings. The bill, Assembly Bill 716, is authored by Assemblymember Steve Bennett, D-Ventura, and calls for California courts to provide remote access to proceedings via streaming or telephone services. With the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down courtrooms and moving proceedings to Zoom, Mr. Bennett said public and media access to legal proceedings was limited. This lack of access, in addition to the desire for greater transparency, is what led Mr. Bennett to champion this bill. “I think as trust and confidence in government has decreased, (there’s an) increase in the importance of transparency,” Mr. Bennett told the News-Press Friday. “This (bill) is an attempt to increase transparency in one of the branches of government, the judicial branch, that people have typically not had that kind of access to.” Currently, state law restricts the use of cameras in courtrooms, placing an outright ban on photography, recording or broadcasting unless the court grants advanced permission. Court cases are often seen as a

An announcement that avid travelers, travel agents, airports and many others have been anxiously waiting for was made Friday morning by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Fully vaccinated individuals can travel both within the United States and internationally “at low risk to themselves.” All airplane passengers, including those who have been vaccinated, must continue to wear masks and adhere to COVID-19 guidelines. And officials continue to recommend people avoid unnecessary traveling. But a recent CDC study suggested that vaccinated people getting infected with and/or transmitting the virus is rare. The announcement came amid an already increasing number of travelers nationwide with spring breaks and additional loosening of restrictions. Last Sunday marked the 18th straight day of more than 1 million people streaming through checkpoints in the U.S., the most prolonged travel rebound during the pandemic, according to national media reports. “The industry was really waiting to get (this announcement) from the CDC, so this is a good thing,” Deanna Zachrisson, spokesperson for the Santa Barbara Municipal Airport, told the News-Press Friday. “Now that the science behind it seems to suggest it is OK to travel, that’s one more vote of confidence to propel the last folks that might be hesitating … There’s no reason to avoid traveling at this point if you’re vaccinated.” The Santa Barbara Airport is also seeing the highest numbers since the start of the pandemic, with 700 to 800 people a day coming through the checkpoints and departing. However, Ms. Zachrisson said that’s still only half of what it would’ve been compared to 2019, so it’s “not anything close to normal.” But the airport is nevertheless preparing for an influx of bookings and air travelers. “Quite a bit of capacity” is being added to the airport, according to its spokesperson. Rental car companies are bringing back their staff, and the restaurant and gift shop is bringing back its furloughed employees, which she said is “a great sign.” Furthermore, the Santa Barbara Airport will be up to serving 11 cities by the end of June, which Ms. Zachrisson said is “pretty amazing” considering where the airport was

a year ago. “Everybody knows and believes leisure travel is the source of the rebound,” Ms. Zachrisson said. “Business travel is going to be lagging.” She added that it’s hard to pinpoint a specific demographic of travelers starting to book again, other than ones with a “disposable income” who managed to keep their jobs during the pandemic. That all being said, the pandemic has taken many wild, unpredictable turns, and the potential of a surge in cases has led industry officials to remain cautious. “Most people who plan on being vaccinated believe that they will be vaccinated by the end of June, and most people who want to travel think that they are going to be traveling in the summer,” Ms. Zachrisson said. “It’s going to be interesting to see how that collective belief amongst all of us actually turns out.” For independent travel agents, this news

balancing act between the First Amendment, which prohibits the government from abridging the freedom of the press, and the Sixth Amendment, which ensures a criminal defendant’s right to a fair trial. In addition, a 1980 Supreme Court ruling of Richmond Newspapers Inc. v. Virginia, held that the press and the public have a right to access and attend criminal trials under First Amendment provisions. Depending on the case, proceedings may be closed to the public to protect a defendant’s right to a fair trial by an impartial jury or to protect the victims, witnesses or jurors. In the case of Mr. Bennett’s bill, all open proceedings would be required to provide remote access, but judges would still hold the right to restrict access to the public if they feel it is in the community’s best interest. The use of cameras in courtrooms, while rare, is not completely outlawed nationwide. As of 2006, all 50 states allow some form of camera presence in their courtrooms. But many states, including California, restrict the use of recording or photography devices without the express permission of the court. In Minnesota, where the trial of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin is under way, cameras and recording devices Please see bill on A7

Santa Barbara County misses orange tier criteria By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

While Ventura and Los Angeles counties are set to move into the state’s orange tier Monday, Santa Barbara County health officials say a recent uptick in local cases will hold the county back from moving into the next tier assignment until infection rates drop. During a Friday press briefing, Dr. Van Do-Reynoso, county health director, said the county’s

case rate must drop below 5.9 per 100,000 to qualify for the orange tier. Currently the county’s case rate is moving “upwards in the wrong direction,” she said. “We must all be extra cautious at this time, and that means diligently practicing the masking, the social distancing and limiting gatherings,” Dr. Do-Reynoso said. Officials are unsure of why cases are rising in the region but said they are seeing the highest uptick in cases among people in their 20s. Officials presume that the increase could be attributed to activities reopening and unvaccinated people beginning to socialize again. Thus far, the public health Please see covid on A2

means their already rising number of bookings will continue to do so. And for some of them, they can finally get back to work. Karen Ensign, a Carpinteria independent travel advisor, can now spend a full day in the office as opposed to her previous two to three hours during the pandemic that would cover all her bookings. She told the NewsPress that business for her started to pick up around three weeks ago, and a large portion of the bookings are actually re-bookings from canceled cruises and trips to Hawaii. Between Hawaii, Mexico and Costa Rica, Ms. Ensign said she thinks travelers will stay closer to home initially. She added that most of them are 70 and older and planning for cruises. “While the U.K. and Europe are always popular destinations, the continuing Please see travel on A2

Doctor gives tips on managing vaccine’s side effects By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

While there is a chance of experiencing side effects after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, health officials say the effects tend to be mild and dissipate quickly. Dr. David Fisk, medical director of infection control and prevention at Cottage Health, said the majority of people do not experience any side effects after getting the vaccine. However, when people do, the most common symptoms include injection site pain, aches and a low fever within a day or two of receiving these vaccines. To manage the discomfort associated with side effects, Dr. Fisk recommends holding an

ice pack to the injection site and taking pain relievers like Tylenol for aches and fevers. He also recommended planning a “light day” after receiving the vaccine, as this is when aches and fevers take effect most often. For people who receive the double-shot Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, Dr. Fisk said patients often experience a more intense reaction after receiving their second dose. While these side effects may be uncomfortable, Dr. Fisk said this does not take away from the safety of the vaccine. “These are some of the safest vaccines we’ve ever seen based on the info we have so far,” Dr. Fisk, who’s also an infectious disease specialist at Sansum Clinic, told

the News-Press. “There are millions being administered, and the rates of severe reactions are very low.” Serious side effects of the vaccine, such as shortness of breath or wheezing, are very rare reactions that occur at a rate of two to four in 1 million, Dr. Fisk said. More serious reactions are likely to occur within 15 minutes of receiving the vaccine, which is why many clinics will wait to monitor patients immediately after their shot. Dr. Fisk emphasized that these reactions are extremely rare, and in the case that they do occur, medical staff at vaccination sites are on hand and prepared to help.

Dr. David Fisk, medical director of infection control and prevention at Cottage Health, said the COVID-19 vaccines are the “safest we’ve ever seen.”

Health department thinks herd immunity may come in July Continued from Page A1 department has received more than 194,000 vaccine doses for distribution. Earlier this week, officials began administering shots to people 50 and older at their vaccine clinics across the county in alignment with statewide vaccine eligibility expansion. On April 12, the county will open vaccine appointments for residents 16 and older to

receive shots at the county vaccination clinics. People can make an appointment by visiting publichealthsbc.org. If the vaccine rollout continues and cases begin to decline, Dr. Do-Reynoso said Friday that the department anticipates reaching herd immunity sometime in July. On Friday, the Public Health Department reported 53 new cases and one death. The individual who died was a resident of the unincorporated area around Goleta who was between ages 50 and 69 and had

underlying conditions. Officials reported 13 new infections in Santa Maria, 12 new infections in Lompoc and 11 new infections in Santa Barbara. The unincorporated areas of Goleta Valley and Gaviota reported four new cases, and the unincorporated areas of Sisquoc, Casmalia, Garey, Cuyama, New Cuyama and the city of Guadalupe reported three new cases. All other areas reported fewer than two new cases on Friday. A total of 26 people are receiving treatment at local

hospitals, including 10 in the Intensive Care Unit. The county’s ICU availability was 25% as of Friday. Cottage Health issued an update Friday and announced that it is caring for a total of 301 patients across all campuses, which includes 193 acute care patients. Of the acute care patients, seven are on ventilators, nine are in isolation with COVID-19 symptoms and nine others are confirmed to be COVID-19 positive.

‘All signs point to a big wave of travel requests’ lockdowns in the U.K. and the increase in COVID-19 cases and variants in Italy will most likely make travelers hesitate to travel there anytime soon,” she said. “As for Santa Barbara, I think we will see a lot of travelers visiting from here in the U.S. and maybe even from abroad. Santa Barbara is a world-class destination, and a lot of people save up to come here for a vacation. “And if you have to be in lockdown during a pandemic, Santa Barbara is not a bad place to be.” Ms. Ensign herself had to put off many things over the course of the pandemic without making close to her normal income. While she said that she and her co-workers could get overwhelmed at times before the pandemic, she looks forward to helping her clients with their travel plans again. She said, “I hope I can maintain a good work and life balance when travel really picks up again. And it will — all signs point to a big wave of travel requests coming soon.” Rayanna Cole-Dombroski is another local travel agent and coordinates both leisure and corporate travel. Throughout the pandemic, she said she was issuing maybe one air ticket a week and booking five hotels a week at maximum for corporate business, and she’s only issued a handful of leisure air tickets since last March. However, this week, Mrs. ColeDombroski said she’s already issued 15 air tickets and booked 10 hotels. While it doesn’t come close to her previous average of 200 air tickets and 100 hotel bookings each

outdoor dining and other types of visitor attractions, spring break and good weather. However, she said it’s important to remember the bigger picture of tourism and what an influx could cause. “We have a long way to go to help our industry rebound,” Ms. Janega-Dykes told the News-Press. “Restrictions are still in place around meetings, which make up a significant portion of midweek travel, along with travel for business, sports, concerts and more. “In our market, coastal and luxury hotels are faring better right now than their inland, midtier counterparts. Just because we see leisure travelers returning doesn’t mean that everyone is equally benefiting. We’re also facing fierce competition from destinations around the country, which are all trying to reclaim lost income for their communities.” The CEO said the local hospitality industry has proved that it can operate with safety and health protocols in place, and restoring regular levels of travel is “extremely important for our community.” She cited the latest report from the state Employment Development Department, which showed a loss of 2,900 jobs in accommodations (a 49% loss) and 4,300 jobs in the food and beverage industry (a 23% loss) in February. “Leisure and hospitality jobs are still the hardest hit sector in Santa Barbara County,” Ms. Janega-Dykes said. “The return of visitors will help stabilize the businesses and attractions that even locals rely on, such as our favorite restaurants, bars, wine tasting rooms and museums. That will in turn help them recover from the devastating losses they

took over this past year and secure jobs of our friends and neighbors.” Kristen Miller, the Santa Barbara South Coast Chamber of Commerce president and CEO, said the CDC’s announcement on Friday will “surely support” an increased amount of travel to Santa Barbara in the coming weeks and moving into this summer. “As long as individuals act responsibly by wearing masks and maintaining an appropriate amount of distance, travel is possible and supportive of long term economic recovery for some of our region’s hardest hit industries,” she told the NewsPress. “In-person dining is starting to flourish in our county and our case numbers have remained low. This, along with vaccinations available to more people, is definitely supportive of safe travel throughout the county.” She said an influx will be positive for the region, and there are enough safety protocols in place all across the board that support travel. “Guests who visit Santa Barbara by air generally make a greater impact to the travel and tourism industry as they typically stay longer periods of time, spending more on hotels, food, and services,” Ms. Miller said. “With the expansion of flights into our regions, we can expect that travel and tourism will boost the economy and help the long term recovery post-COVID. Our hope is that we can return to business as usual, while still practicing all necessary safety protocols, to continue supporting the balanced needs of our residents and guests.” email: gmccormick@newspress.com

TRAFFIC, CRIME AND FIRE BLOTTER Brush fire burns three acres SANTA YNEZ — A vegetation fire burned an estimated three acres on Friday afternoon in the 4000 block of State Route 154 near Lake Cachuma, authorities said. Around 11:05 a.m., the Santa Barbara County Fire Department responded to reports of a vegetation fire. Upon arrival, crews found the fire being pushed by westward winds and upgraded its response to include helicopters, dozers and additional units, said Capt. Daniel Bertucelli, fire spokesman. Crews worked to put in hose lines and were assisted by a waterdropping helicopter. No structures were threatened and the cause of the fire is under investigation. — Mitchell White

GOLETA — Hazardous materials personnel were deployed to mitigate potentially contaminated water runoff following a structure fire

fire. Multiple chemicals were involved in the fire, which was doused and the runoff was diverted away from storm drains, said Capt. Daniel Bertucelli, fire spokesman. Hazmat crews arrived on scene

month, business is still increasing. Corporate travel has picked up as companies reduce their restrictions on employees traveling. Mrs. Cole-Dombroski said her corporate travelers are typically in their mid 20s and 30s and tend to book one to three weeks out. Her leisure business is currently mostly individuals in their 60s through 80s that have been vaccinated, and they’re booking further out, from July through October and even sometimes for 2022. “I do anticipate travel to keep increasing, at least I hope so, but at a much slower pace than what has been projected, depending on infectious numbers, additional variants and destination entry restrictions and documentation,” she told the News-Press prior to the CDC’s announcement. “The current increase in business may not impact our business at all right now. It depends on how long this increase in bookings lasts. My 30 years in this business have made me more realistic, so although I’m very optimistic right now to see travel increasing, I’m also very cautious that it could subside.” A recent poll from Destination Analysts showed that 82% of American travelers would feel more comfortable traveling after receiving a vaccine, while 44% said they plan to avoid all travel until the pandemic blows over. Visit Santa Barbara hasn’t conducted its own study, but Kathy Janega-Dykes, the organization’s president and CEO, said there has been a slight uptick in travel. She attributed the increase to more factors other than the vaccine as well, such as hotels reopening for leisure travel in January, restrictions lifting for

Santa Barbara’s Ty Montgomery prepares for a kickoff in the Dons 34-12 win on Thursday night over Hueneme.

NEW

TUESDAY THRU SATURDAY FROM 10 TO 6

By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

The biggest thing to hit Ty Montgomery on Thursday night was not one of the Hueneme High football defenders who took a crack at him during his eight-yard touchdown run to start the second quarter. It was the sensation he felt halfan-hour earlier as he and his Santa Barbara High teammates streamed through a tunnel and emerged onto the field from the guts of the new Peabody Stadium. “It was this crazy feeling that, ‘This is my first game ever at Santa Barbara High School,’” the senior back said. It had been more than four years and five months since the Dons — homeless since 2016 — had last made that traditional entrance. This year’s seniors were all in junior high school at the time. Deacon Hill, the star quarterback for this year’s team, was there to see it. “I was in the eighth grade, I believe, watching Frankie during his sophomore year,” he said, referring to Frankie Gamberdella, his predecessor at quarterback. “They played San Marcos, I think.” Peabody Stadium, which had been carved out of the gully below Santa Barbara High’s new campus in 1924, had been crumbling apart the last few decades. The press box had long been condemned and removed, and the concrete concourse had become an earthquake disaster in the making. The Santa Barbara High Foundation recognized the need a decade ago and began to rally the community to rebuild the historic facility. It raised $5 million from more than 800 donors. It got the rest of the funding for the $39 million project from Measure Q2010 bonds, developer fees and state seismic mitigation funds. The ground-breaking ceremony was finally held on Aug. 23, 2017 — just as Hill, Montgomery and their classmates were starting their freshman year at the school. “The thought process was, ‘OK, it’s going to get built during my freshman and sophomore years, and at least I’d get to play here two years,’” said Hill, who won Channel League Offensive Player of the Year honors last season. “But that didn’t happen.” The frustration built up with Montgomery, who was recognized for his offensive, defensive and kicking abilities last season with the league’s Utility Player of the Year Award. “We were told that we were going to be able to play here during my sophomore year,” he said. “I gave up on that about two years ago. I didn’t even care about this stadium anymore. “But I am so thankful now. This place is awesome. I wish we would’ve had it last year.” The Dons won last season’s Channel League championship and advanced all the way to the

CIF-Southern Section’s Division 8 championship game. But instead of playing at a palatially new Peabody Stadium, which was supposed to reopen in April of 2019, they had to play at the stadium of their arch-rival, San Marcos. They wound up losing in heart-breaking fashion to topranked Sunny Hills, 24-21. Three months later, the COVID-19 pandemic put a halt to all high school sports for an entire year. “All the seniors moved past it,” Hill said. “We thought our high school days were over. We’d just stick to on-line schooling, and once we were done with it, we were done. “Most of the seniors started getting jobs. Practice wasn’t a thing for us anymore.” Football coach J.T. Stone became greatly concerned about how the disconnection from school was affecting the students. “With all this going on, I was really worried about the kids’ mental health,” he said after Thursday’s game. “So to see them back out here tonight in their element, having fun and smiling … It was a real good feeling for me.” Stone contacted each of his players after receiving word that an abbreviated football season would begin in March. “He texted me and went, ‘You guys want to play?’” Hill recalled. “I knew I was coming back. I wouldn’t be able to sit in the stands and watch. I couldn’t do that.” Montgomery, hearing that there would be only two football games, decided that he’d just play baseball instead since their seasons now overlap. “But when I realized that we were going to have three or four games, that’s when I came back,” he said. “I’ll go back to baseball right away when football is over.” The grand opening of Peabody Stadium in 1924 ended in a 30-0

defeat to Huntington Park. But the Dons didn’t waste time scoring on Thursday in a game in which only family members were allowed to attend. Senior Justin Perez set it up by tackling Hueneme’s punter for an 11-yard loss at the Vikings’ own 34-yard line. On the very next play, Hill ran for the first touchdown at the new Peabody Stadium, sprinting around left end and then cutting inside a block by receiver Anthony Loza. “I told myself that I’d get the first one in the stadium,” Hill said. “All the pieces fell into place on that play. “Anthony Loza is one of the best blockers out of all the receivers. He’s got a big body and we like him over the middle. We motioned him over and he picked up the corner. It was just perfect.” Montgomery’s TD came several minutes later, leading to the 34-12 victory. When asked if he was determined to get the second score, he replied, “I’ll take any of them.” All he really wanted was the chance to play at one of the most majestic high school football stadiums in California. “This place is pretty incredible,” he said. “It’s pretty worth it, to get to play a couple more games with all the seniors. “It was really looking pretty doubtful that we’d even have this season. I’m pretty happy right now.” Stone was more pleased about that than the actual victory. “I’m just happy for the kids,” he said. “Happy to see people in the stands. Happy to hear people. It was good to be back here. It feels good. “And I’m not just happy for our kids, but also for the Santa Barbara Don community that we’re back here at Peabody. It’s a special place.” email: mpatton@newspress.com

T R E E OF T H E MON T H African Coral Tree (Erythrina caffra) DAVID GRESS PHOTOS

By DAVID GRESS SPECIAL TO THE NEWS-PRESS

he African Coral tree is one of the most spectacular of flowering trees. It is the largest of more than a dozen coral tree species that grow in our area and has the most magnificent floral display. Its large clusters of coralcolored flowers are remarkable standouts in the landscape, particularly if they appear on nearly bare branches during a short deciduous period. While being native to the coastal regions of southeast Africa, from the Cape province to Natal, the African Coral Tree is perfectly suited to our community because both areas have similar Mediterranean climates. The African Coral Tree was introduced here in 1908 by the pioneering horticulturist and nurseryman, Dr. Francesco Franceschi. Since then, it has been planted in coastal areas throughout Southern California. Its popularity can be attributed to its relatively fast growth, gorgeous flowers and dense canopy of leaves. Its beauty has garnered such admiration that it has been designated the official tree of Los Angeles. This medium- to large-sized tree grows 25 to 40 feet tall with an equal spread. Most are almost evergreen, but are often briefly deciduous in winter. Flowering occurs from late winter to early spring, when dark orange to scarlet blooms appear in massive clusters (8 inches across) at or near the end of its branches — with up to 80 flowers per cluster! Each exotic-looking flower has a primary petal (called a banner), which arches back to expose the reproductive parts. Abundant flower nectar and vibrant colors attract insect and bird pollinators. After the flowers are pollinated, their leathery brown seed pods (6- to 8- inches long) develop and are deeply constricted around

the seeds. As pods age, they split open to reveal up to 5 bright-red oval seeds. Beware: Despite their attractive appearance, the seeds are highly toxic and poisonous to eat. When flowering is over, new dark green compound leaves emerge on 8-inch-long leaf stems, called petioles, each with three diamondshaped (deltoid) leaflets (2 to 5 inches across and wide). The bark has hues of yellow green, which will turn grayer with time. On young trees, the trunks and limbs can have longitudinal fissures, which will become smooth with maturity. On young growth, short prickly thorns are pointedly evident; these will often disappear with age. Unfortunately, its wood is soft and brittle, which can result in rather dramatic breakage of heavy limbs and even trunks. Consequently, regular — and significant — pruning is required. The botanical name for the African Coral Tree is Erythrina caffra. The genus name, Erythrina, is from the Greek word “‘erythros,” meaning “red,” and refers to the color of its flowers and seeds. The specific epithet, “caffra,” denotes its origins in South Africa. It goes by many other common names, including Cape Coral Tree, Coastal Coral Tree, and Kafferboom Coral Tree. Also frequently grown in Santa Barbara is its close relative, Erythrina coralloides, the Naked Coral Tree, which looks somewhat like and is often confused with the caffra. A simple way to tell the difference is from their leaf habits. The Naked Coral Tree, as its name suggests, is fully deciduous during winter; whereas the African Coral Tree is mostly evergreen yearround. All species of coral trees are in the plant family Fabaceae, which includes legumes, peas, and beans. The African Coral Tree is easy to grow. To propagate trees from seed, prepare the seeds by soaking them in warm water for a couple of days. The seeds that sink will be viable and should germinate

within two weeks. Trees can also be propagated from stem cuttings, which will produce plants that are genetically identical. Fortunately for us, it is relatively drought-tolerant. Of course, it will do better with infrequent deep watering during dry seasons, but mature trees can generally survive on just our normal rainfall. However, it is not frost-tolerant and can be damaged if the temperature drops below 28 degrees. It does well in most soil types found in Santa Barbara. When selecting a location to plant this tree, take into consideration its large size at maturity. Give it

plenty of room to accommodate its impressive branching structure and sprawling surface roots. It does prefer a spot with full sun. With its broad spreading canopy and colorful flowers, the African Coral Tree makes a lovely ornamental shade tree with a bold appearance for large private gardens, as well as for public parks and open spaces. Mature specimens of the African Coral Tree can be seen in the center of Alice Keck Park Memorial Garden, on the Figueroa Street side of the Santa Barbara County Courthouse, at the Santa Barbara Harbor

(mixed with Naked Coral Trees), in the 3900 Block of State Street, at the corner of Cota Street and Chiquita Street, and at the corner of Barker Pass and Eucalyptus Hill Road. A large number also stand at various locations on the UCSB campus.

Tree of the Month, presented by Santa Barbara Beautiful, increases awareness and appreciation of Santa Barbara’s many outstanding trees. The nonprofit organization partners with the Parks and Recreation Department to fund tree planting

along city streets. Visit Santa Barbara Beautiful’s website, sbbeautiful.org, to get more information on the organization’s programs and activities, and to view past Trees of the Month. Those who wish to honor a special someone can do so with an attractive commemorative marker that will be installed at the base of an existing street tree in Santa Barbara. Because Santa Barbara Beautiful has participated in the planting of more than 12,000 street trees, there are plenty of trees from which to choose. Application forms are available at sbbeautiful.org.

Library recognizes Armenian History Month VENTURA — In honor of Armenian History Month, the Ventura County Library along with the Southern California Library Cooperative are continuing their “Be The Change” series with two events. On Thursday, political consultant and commentator Eric Hacopian will have a conversation with Salpi Ghazarian, the director of the USC Institute of Armenian Studies, in a pre-recorded video called “Armenia, Artsakh, Diaspora - Memory, Identity and

Responsibility.” You can register for this event at https://glac.info/ bethechange. Eric Hacopian is a 30-year veteran of American politics, having worked on campaigns from the local to the presidential level. For the past 22 years, he has been the principal at EDH & Associates, a Southern California-based Democratic consulting firm. Salpi Ghazarian joined the USC Institute of Armenian Studies in 2014 to lead a global intellectual center that brings together the

skills, training and passion of scholars, practitioners and leaders to address and resolve national and global challenges impacting communities in California, the U.S. and Armenia. Then on April 10, author and lecturer Khatchig Mouradian will discuss his book, “The Resistance Network,” with filmmaker and screenwriter Eric Nazarian. “The Resistance Network” is the history of an underground network of humanitarians, missionaries, and diplomats in

Ottoman Syria who helped save the lives of thousands during the Armenian Genocide. Khatchig Mouradian challenges depictions of Armenians as passive victims of violence and subjects of humanitarianism, demonstrating the key role they played in organizing a humanitarian resistance against the destruction of their people.

ARIES — You’re likely to be very aware of things going on around you today, and you may internalize the opinions of others, Aries. Be careful about opening yourself up so much that you get hurt by someone’s offhand, unflattering comment. You will find the most comfort in tangible and stable things. Enjoy the material pleasures in life. TAURUS — You may be working on a large project that draws on your creative energy, Taurus. In terms of long-term goals and dreams, this sort of project is right up your alley. Today you might hit a snag or some sort of emotional block that could make it hard for you to continue. Slow down and take a break. Don’t get discouraged. GEMINI — Don’t be surprised if someone rubs you the wrong way today, Gemini. It’s likely that pressure has been building in other people’s minds for quite some time. They might have been afraid to share their feelings before simply because they were too intimidated to say anything that might cross you. The molten lava has finally gotten hot enough and the volcano is about to erupt. CANCER — It’s possible that you’ve relied on your imagination to pull you out of tough situations lately, Cancer. When the real world begins to get you down, you can always turn to your fantasy world. On this day, there’s a stubborn blast of realism that might bring you down and keep you there. Unless you’ve prepared for this grounding force, you could have trouble lifting off again. LEO — Relax and settle down today, Leo. Take some time to enjoy where you are and the people around you. There’s a promise that you need to fulfill, and you should think about how you can honor it now. Do something for others instead of keeping the focus on you and your goals and ambitions. The more you invest in others now, the bigger the payoff you will receive from these actions in the future. VIRGO — You may be faced with a difficult choice today in a particular area of your life, Virgo. It’s likely the dilemma stems from a desire to follow your creative, imaginative spirit, while another part of you feels held down to things more practical and grounded. See what you can do to combine the two forces and fuse them into one powerful manifestation. Monday, November 16, 2015 LIBRA — Today a bubble of

confusion clouds your reality, making it difficult to decide what to do next, Libra. Be careful that you don’t tie your stomach in knots from the tension created by your mental confusion. Problems with indigestion are likely now because of your worries over what your next step should be. Relax and go with the flow. Things will work out fine. SCORPIO — Try not to be too swayed by your emotions today, Scorpio. You might get in trouble if you get carried away with a drama that doesn’t pertain to you in any way. Your connection to other people’s feelings could draw you into a maelstrom. Keep in mind that your imagination is your life raft. Do what you can to distance yourself from the emotional trauma that surrounds you. SAGITTARIUS — Don’t doubt yourself today, Sagittarius. You should be feeling quite strong, although inadequacy could sneak into the picture. This could be because you’re having trouble understanding issues that are rather cloudy. Just because things aren’t clear doesn’t mean they aren’t working out in your favor. As long as you remain confident that things will come out fine, they will. CAPRICORN — You’re at a creative high point right now, so make sure to nurture this side of your being, Capricorn. It could be that you’re in danger of running into an obstacle. Try not to get discouraged. Instead, it may be best for you to reflect on what you’ve done in the past. Enjoy emotional stability today instead of letting your emotions jump around from one thing to the next. AQUARIUS — You’re apt to be in a good mood today, Aquarius. The roller coaster of feelings you’ve been on is finally coming to a stable platform. Get off the ride and enjoy the comfort of solid ground. Take a walk and treat yourself to something you enjoy - ice cream or a new book. Deal with practical issues instead of getting lost in your imagination. You will sleep more soundly tonight if you do. PISCES — It’s important to be more sensitive toward other people’s feelings today, Pisces. You may feel more vulnerable than usual. You should do what you can to keep from becoming a victim. Realize that harsh words coming your way now could be a reflection of the harsh words that you’ve dished out in the past. Ultimately, the events of today could be a good learning experience.

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.

The Wildling Museum is holding a virtual event to present the Wilderness Spirit Award to renowned underwater photographer Richard Salas.

Noted underwater photographer to receive Wildling Museum award By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Wildling Museum is inviting the public to attend a virtual event honoring the museum’s Wilderness Spirit Awardee — renowned underwater photographer Richard Salas. The event will take place from 4 to 5 p.m. June 6 and will feature live and pre-recorded tributes to Mr. Salas, as well as a live presentation by the photographer himself and his underwater video footage. His work brings art and nature together as a means of preserving wild spaces, embodying the mission of the Wildling Museum. Mr. Salas has captured numerous photos of marine creatures, from sharks and seals to the smallest sea life. He’s a passionate advocate for the ocean and its inhabitants and has written and published books documenting his adventures. “While I realize that as an individual, I have never been more than a drop of water in the

face of the vastness of the ocean, I have also seen that as a species, our collective weight is having a profound and harmful impact on our seas,” the photographer said in a news release. “With my lights and lots of patience, I create dimensionality in my photographs of these beings so that they may leap off the page to meet and greet the viewer. “Through my images, I hope to convey the profound sense of oneness with the underwater world that I feel when I am diving. I am committed to using my art to spark in others both a reverence and a sense of responsibility for all ocean life.” To purchase tickets or to sponsor this event, visit www. wildlingmuseum.org/news/2021wilderness-spirit-award, or call 805-686-8315.

RANDY GLICK

Continued from Page A1 are banned unless authorized by the court. With the death of George Floyd drawing international attention, presiding Judge Peter Cahill made a landmark ruling that allowed cameras to be used during the trial due to vast public interest and COVID-19 restrictions limiting access to courtrooms. This case is the first time in Minnesota’s history that a full criminal trial is being broadcast for the whole world to see, and it’s resurrecting a debate of the place of cameras in the modern courtroom. Santa Barbara County District Attorney Joyce Dudley said she is in favor of the increased transparency that would come from cameras in the courtroom, noting that giving people insight into the courtroom could provide people with a better understanding of the justice system and hold public servants accountable. “I’m a proponent of anything that adds transparency to things that belong to the people,” Ms. Dudley told the News-Press Friday. She later added, “We’re public servants, and if we’re not doing our jobs well, we need to be held accountable for those actions we take. I think showing judges, lawyers and court personnel in action will have a good effect in terms of all of us being more responsible and the community being more engaged.” While she is in support of this movement, Ms. Dudley raised concerns over the “rapid-fire pace” of the news where viewers may only see 10 seconds of a threehour testimony. She said her concern is that the public will not hear the entire story in just a few soundbites and form an opinion based on incomplete information. “I think (we need) to keep reminding the community and the public at large that this is only a piece of it,” Ms. Dudley said. “Sometimes testimonies are three

hours long.” William Makler, a Santa Barbara DUI and criminal defense attorney, said he views increased transparency as a good thing, but he also raised some concerns. He said many defense attorneys are naturally against publicity, as it can draw negative attention to their client and impact a defendant’s access to an impartial jury. “As a general measure, you don’t want your client’s worst day to become a matter of public consumption, and so from a defense standpoint, you don’t really like publicity,” Mr. Makler told the News-Press. He also raised concerns over how far access would extend. Namely, he’s concerned about how the court would restrict people from taking recordings of court proceedings on their phones and sharing them on social media for the entire world to see. “I think all of us would ask, do we want the worst day of our life to be potentially consequential in terms of how other people view us,” Mr. Makler said. “In terms of privacy, our personal business, decision making and misfortunes could somehow become a longlasting issue for us in our lives depending on how much interest it gathered on the internet.” In response to concerns, Mr. Bennett said he and his team are talking with the county’s Public Defenders to discuss a solution. The bill was already heard and passed by the Assembly’s judicial committee and is now making its way to the Assembly floor. If it passes in the Assembly, it will be reviewed and potentially amended by the Senate. Then once the bill passes in both the Assembly and in the Senate, it will make its way to the Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk, possibly by the fall. At this point, Mr. Bennett said he feels “relatively optimistic” that this bill will move closer to full approval. email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

SANTA BARBARA NEWS-PRESS

A spring full of song Westmont Music Department to hold virtual concerts this month By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

April is a big month for the Westmont Music Department. Friday evening marked the first of seven virtual concerts available for free streaming. Student musicians in the choir and orchestra combined forces for a performance of “Requiem” by Garbial Faure in the department’s annual Masterworks Concert, which became available to stream at 7 p.m. Friday. Six performances are yet to come, including the Composer’s Concert, a performance from the Westmont Jazz Ensemble, a concert by the Chamber Orchestra and Chamber Winds, the Spring Choral Concert and the Vocal Chamber Concert. “We feel very fortunate we’ve been able to do as much as we can,” Dr. Michael Shasberger, Adams Chair of Music and Worship and the conductor of the Westmont Orchestra, told the News-Press Friday. “We have a wonderful track record for vibrant health in the music community.” The Masterworks Concert, Dr. Shasberger said, was a challenge in and of itself. The Montecito college’s choir singers were widely spaced high above the orchestra on the concrete and grass bleachers, while the orchestra encompassed the full width and length of the track. The conductor and soloists were stationed on Thorrington Field. “As we know, the guidelines change in response to the current conditions, so we’ve had to be very flexible in changing the plans for each program,” the chair said. “But we persevered and made the best of the possibilities for us.” Dr. Shasberger said the biggest challenges in making the virtual concerts possible were finding adequate space to be properly distanced and dealing with the wind, temperature and lighting. However, he said that Santa Barbara is “far better off than most of our colleagues around the country” with its mild climate. “Requiem” is a song about God’s grace and the reunion of the faithfully departed with the heavenly hosts, so for the choir and orchestra, Dr. Shasberger said it is a message of hope for all who have lost loved ones in the past year. “They (the music students) are like a family. Of course, that’s why we do the work we do,” Dr. Shasberger said. “Whether it’s in a difficult time or not, it’s an academic calling for many of them and a life calling for all of them, in a way, to be expressive human beings.” The Composer’s Concert, premiering several original

compositions and pieces by Westmont students, will be held Friday. In addition, the Westmont Jazz Ensemble will perform a variety of songs spanning history, including pieces by George Gershwin, Antônio Carlos Jobim, John L. (Wes) Montgomery and Jon Batiste. The ensemble features freshman Colby Young (drums), freshman Dylan Russell (bassist), freshman Keegan Perez (guitarist), freshman Samila Holt (clarinet), junior Soren Warren (trumpet), senior Julianne Jimenez (vocals), junior Heather Roell (vocals) and freshman Lillian Robinson (vocals). Later on this month, the Westmont Chamber Orchestra and Chamber Winds will host their spring concert on April 18. The Bassoon and Harp Duo, featuring Tasha Loh (bassoon) and Julianne Jimenez (harp), will perform a Debussy favorite, “Rêverie. The Chamber Brass Ensemble will premiere two new arrangements of Ralph Vaughan Williams’ “Studies of English Folksongs.” They will also perform “Just a Closer Walk,” a traditional spiritual in Dixie style arranged by Jack Gale, and two classical pieces for brass, Minuet from George Frideric Handel’s “Water Music” and Adagio and Presto by Italian composer Niccolò Antonio Zingarelli. The Chamber Orchestra will perform Johann Pachebel’s Canon in D and his lesser known “Gigue” that was originally paired with the Canon. They will also offer an arrangement of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s “Music of the Night” from his “Phantom of the Opera.” The Spring Choral Concert, which combines the College Choir, Chamber Singers and Choral Union, co-directed by Karen Janzen and Matthew Roy, will be held on April 23. And the Vocal Chamber Concert will feature Westmont’s top student musicians on April 25, followed by the String Chamber Concert on April 30. “On the flip side of the challenge, it’s also been a great opportunity to take the time to do these video recordings so that people all over can access them,” Dr. Shasberger said. “We’ve had so many parents and family members and friends write to us and say, ‘Thank you for providing this at this time. I could have never gotten to my son’s or daughter’s performance.’ “This has been really delightful. We talk about the isolation we’re all experiencing and suffering from, so I hope in some significant way, these performances help break that for all of us.” To learn more, visit westmont. edu/virtual-concert-series. email: gmccormick@newspress.com

SPORTS ROUNDUP

Gauchos blank Hawaii 3-0 on McGreevy’s three-hitter By MARK PATTON and MITCHELL WHITE NEWS-PRESS STAFF REPORT

Michael McGreevy pitched a three-hit, no-walk shutout as UCSB won its fifth straight Big West Conference baseball game with a 3-0 victory at Hawaii. McGreevy faced just two batters over the minimum and struck out 10 batters in a game that took only two hours and nine minutes. He improved his win-loss record to 4-0 and lowered his earned run average to 2.42. The Gauchos (16-7, 7-2 Big West Conference) broke up a scoreless pitcher’s duel between McGreevy and Hawaii’s Aaron Davenport in the sixth inning. Cole Cummings reached safely on an infield single with one out and took third with two outs on a single by Broc Mortensen. Mortensen stole second base and Zach Rodriguez followed with a two-run single to leftcenterfield. Rodriguez, a freshman outfielder, extended his hitting streak to 12 games while going 2-for-4. He improved his batting average to a team-best .433. Bryce Willits started the Gauchos’ final rally in the ninth when he hit his second single of the game. After a walk to Christian Kirtley and a doublesteal, Michael Marsh hit a runscoring, infield single to increase UCSB’s lead to 3-0. Hawaii (11-8, 3-6) will play host to UCSB in a double-header today and a single game on Sunday. PREP FOOTBALL

SANTA YNEZ 41, DOS PUEBLOS 3 Logan Ast broke the Pirates’ single-game rushing record, unofficially gaining 328 yards while running for four touchdowns for the second-straight week. If verified, Ast will have broken the school mark of 314 yards set by Mario Lewis in 2001. DP (0-3) held the Pirates in check during the first quarter. Santa Ynez (2-1) finally broke through during the second period on a five-yard scoring run by Cam Prendergast. Ast, who also scored four touchdowns in last week’s win over Santa Barbara, scored for the first time on Friday on a five-yard run during the second quarter. The Chargers, who drove deep into Pirate territory several times, missed a field goal to end the first half. Santa Ynez improved its lead to 21-0 in the third quarter when Prendergast and Tyler Gregg combined on a hook-and-ladder,

pass-and-pitch play for a 67-yard TD. DP finally scored in the third period on a 42-yard field goal by Gregory Tripathi. Ast answered, however, with a six-yard scoring run. After DP lost a fumble deep in Pirate territory midway through the third quarter, Ast broke off a 79-yard scoring run for touchdown No. 3. He completed his big night with an eight-yard scoring run. Santa Ynez quarterback Bennett Redell completed 12 of 19 passes for 119 yards. LOMPOC 54, SAN MARCOS 7 The Royals scored on the first play from scrimmage when Rhys Morgan connected with Lance Bermudes on a 90-yard touchdown pass. It was all Braves after that, however. Deville Dickerson returned the ensuing kickoff 75 yards for a TD. He also returned a punt 60 yards for another score later in the first quarter. Lompoc (3-0), which has outscored the opposition 140-20 so far this season, led San Marcos (12) 47-7 by halftime.
