Keeping the Fiesta spirit alive

‘Uncharted territory’

Unemployment numbers see dip in county, but still long road ahead By JORGE MERCADO NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Dr. Peter Rupert had some simple advice for those trying to see the economic impact of COVID-19. “Don’t believe anyone,” chuckled Dr. Rupert, who serves as the executive director of the UCSB Economic Forecast Project. “It’s just hard to really understand what’s going on and the reason basically is, of course, we’re in completely uncharted economic territory.” Dr. Rupert held his fifth EFP webinar on Thursday and was joined by Dr. Lynn Fitzgibbons, an infectious disease expert at Cottage Health, and Nancy Anderson, the assistant CEO for Santa Barbara County. Dr. Rupert focused specifically on the economy, both nationwide and at the local level, in Santa Barbara. The first thing he discussed was in regards to the unemployment filings throughout the country. He noted that one key metric people need to pay attention to is data with seasonally adjusted numbers and data without.

Lotusland names new executive director NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

Old Spanish Days Fiesta 2020 has been deafeningly quiet due to COVID-19. The pandemic has precluded the usual crowded celebration from happening, with Friday’s canceled Fiesta Caravan Parade making it even quieter. However, around town remains the odd reminder of the annual festival keeping the spirit of Fiesta alive. Several locations around town, such as the Santa Barbara Mission, the American Riviera Bank, Shoreline Drive condominiums, and Chad’s Restaurant on Cabrillo Boulevard have hung red and gold banners with the Fiesta poster in recognition of Santa Barbara’s annual celebration. While taking a walk up or down the State Street promenade, one can see Fiesta colored signs hanging from the lamp posts. Under normal circumstances, State Street around this time would be crowded with street and sidewalk vendors, many selling multi-colored cascarones for festival goers to break and release confetti from. There’s just one cascarone on State Street this year, a 4-foot tall one wearing a facemask chained to a bike pole on the 700 block of State Street. In addition to two signs requesting passersby to not touch the egg, the big cascarone also has signs encouraging Please see FIESTA on A9

Seasonally adjusted unemployment numbers attempt to measure and remove the influences of predictable seasonal patterns to reveal how employment and unemployment change from month to month. For example, Dr. Rupert said, during summer when school is out and more people are applying for jobs, unemployment is typically lower. Unemployment typically rises in January and February. Seasonally adjusted data is the data shared by the U.S. Government, according to Dr. Rupert, “because they want you to know, in normal times, what’s happening.” What the seasonally adjusted data showed was that the unemployment rates rose in the weeks of July 18 and July 25, prompting many people to “assume about a stall in the labor market.” That belief also led to a dip in the stock market. Dr. Rupert countered with the raw numbers from the past few weeks which actually show that since July 11, unemployment claims have actually been falling. “If you had just looked at this, not seasonally adjusted data, which for this environment, (we should be because) we’re not in normal times so we can’t adjust seasonally in a normal way, we actually should they should have Please see jobs on A3

Carbajal says Republicans ‘in disarray’ over new COVID-19 relief bill By JOSH GREGA NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Negotiations between Republicans and Democrats in Washington D.C. over a COVID-19 stimulus relief bill fell apart Friday afternoon, leaving uncertainty as to when out-ofwork Americans can again expect to receive weekly unemployment benefits. The setback comes on the heels of the CARES Act’s $600 weekly unemployment benefit expiring on July 31, making the need for a new agreement “an urgent matter,� according to Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara. Mr. Carbajal believes there is a path toward the two parties reaching a compromise, but only if Republicans first marshal some sense of unity behind how to address the recent expiration of coronavirus relief. The representative said his colleagues on the other side of the aisle are “in disarray.� By contrast, Mr. Carbajal said he and his fellow Democrats have coalesced behind The Heroes Act that was first introduced in May,

now waiting for three months to negotiate its contents with Republicans. He expressed worry that dragging out the time until a deal is reached could hurt recent economic gains, which include around 1.8 million jobs added to the U.S. economy. Democrats are seeking to extend the $600 a week provided by the recently expired CARES act benefits. Mr. Carbajal feels this is adequate and cited a Yale University study from last month that found $600 a week isn’t an overinflated amount. A recent stimulus plan put forth by Senate Republicans would cut the $600 unemployment benefits to $200 a week, with the White House reportedly offering weekly benefits of $400 going into December, according to media reports. The GOP’s relief bill containing the $200 weekly benefits would total around $1 trillion, far smaller than the Democrats’ proposed $3.5 trillion plan. However, some Republicans such as Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, have taken exception to their own party’s stimulus plan on the grounds that

its $1 trillion price tag would significantly raise the national debt. Sen. Rick Scott, R-Florida, expressed on Twitter that the $1 trillion was indeed too much.

“We must help individuals & businesses that have been hurt but we can’t bail out states to shield them from the consequences of their bad budgeting,� Mr. Scott posted in a July 27 tweet. Mr. Carbajal criticized Republicans for picking and choosing when they care about the national debt, specifically calling out their support for President Donald Trump’s tax plan from 2017. He said around 80% of the tax breaks in the plan went to the richest 1% of Americans and the plan added $2 trillion to the national debt. “You’ve got to be consistent with your concern about the debt, not just selective,� Mr. Carbajal said. As for President Trump’s desire to extend unemployment benefits via executive order and bypass congress, which he expressed in an Tweet on Thursday, Mr. Carbajal remarked that the president doesn’t legally have the right to do so and “needs to take an orientation� about what the president can and can’t do.

County ‘really not out of the woods’ jobs

Continued from Page A1 been saying, ‘wow, the economy is continuing to fall,’ (since July 11) and it’s been declining ever since,� Dr. Rupert said. Santa Barbara County specifically has seen a slight rise in employment. Before the pandemic, 190,000 employees were employed in the county, which dropped to 160,000 due to COVID-19. Since that drop, however, we have seen a rise, but Dr. Rupert said, “but we’re really, really not out of the woods.� Unemployment in the county was the lowest it had ever been at the start of 2020 in a “long time,� according to Dr. Rupert. With the arrival of COVID-19, at its height, 29,000 people applied

for unemployment in the county. That number has since dipped to just about 25,000. “Remember, typically what we see is something like 6,7, 8,000 people unemployed so we have more than tripled the number of people who are still unemployed in Santa Barbara County,â€? Dr. Rupert said. “And it’s something we have to fight through and work through (by) getting federal help and state help. “As I said, we’re not out of the woods, and it’s not clear yet what’s going to be happening over the next several weeks and months so in summary‌ we’re in very uncharted territory unfortunately.â€? email: jmercado@newspress.com

Holiday Inn Express-Carpinteria activates new solar panel system By JOSH GREGA NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Holiday Inn ExpressCarpinteria has activated its new solar power generating system, consisting of over 500 solar panels installed on new carports built in its parking lot. According to a press release, the new system is expected to replace about 75% of the hotel’s electricity use over the course of one year. In an interview with the News-Press, hotel general manager Michael Ensign said this is expected to result in savings between $15,000 and $20,000 annually. The Carpinteria hotel began the process of installing solar panels in 2018 in an effort to reduce its carbon footprint and “keeping

with our desire to be as green as possible,� according to Mr. Ensign. Installing the solar panels started in late 2019 and finished in early 2020, a process through which the hotel was on “a time crunch� to finish construction. Mr. Ensign explained that the hotel was eligible to receive state tax benefits for installing the solar panels, so long as the project was substantially complete by the end of 2019. Installing the panels was completed before COVID-19 restrictions went into effect, a complication that the general manager is very happy to have avoided. “It would have been kind of a mess if we were trying to do this with all of the limitations,� he said.

Having the solar panels serve as the hotel’s one and only source of electricity isn’t possible, as The Holiday Inn Express-Carpinteria is only allowed to have the panels cover 75% of its electricity. According to Mr. Ensign, having the solar panels cover 100% of the hotel’s electricity would inevitably put electricity back into the power grid, which commercial establishments are not allowed to do under Southern California Edison rules. The utility was involved in the power system’s engineering and it was designed accordingly. “We’re only allowed to do 75%, so that’s how the system was engineered,� Mr. Ensign said. email: jgrega@newspress.com

Bossie cow statue vandalized SANTA BARBARA — Bossie, the large plaster cow on the roof of Bossie’s Kitchen, at 901 N. Milpas St., was vandalized at some point overnight Thursday or early Friday.

The 80-year-old statue has been a beloved icon of McConnell’s Fine Ice Creams since the 1960s. In 1939, the building was originally designed and constructed to house the Live Oak Dairy, which paid for a sculptor to place her on the rooftop. “Over the years, the Live Oak Dairy building has been through

many changes, but Old Bossie has remained, a quirky reminder that this building has been churning out fresh and delicious dairy products for 80 years,� read a blog post on McConnell’s website. Police were unaware of the vandalism when reached by phone Friday afternoon. — Mitchell White

Author Janet Lucy writes about Yemaya, the Ocean Goddess, in “Mermaid Dreams” (Seven Seas Press, $14.95).

Local author’s love of water inspires book for young readers By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

I

t’s no surprise that Janet Lucy would write a book titled “Mermaid Dreams” (Seven Seas Press, $14.95). “Water is my element,” said Ms. Lucy. “I was always swimming in the ocean or pools while growing up in Newport Beach. I earned a minor in coaching swimming at UCSB. I lived in fishing villages in Mexico and Costa Rica. “The mermaid archetype is always with me.” What is a surprise is that the main characters in the 46-page soft cover book written for 6- to 8-year olds are females of color. “The stereotypical mermaid has blonde hair and blue eyes. I wanted to represent the women of color I saw in Mexico and Costa Rica,” said Ms. Lucy, a blonde with brown eyes. Referring to herself as an

“accidental author,” the local author said she was inspired to write the book after bonding with Milanie, the young daughter of her good friend, Erika Romer. “Milanie dreamed of being a mermaid but had ocean fears and nightmares. I was familiar with Yemaya, the Ocean Goddess, and in the book, I have Yemaya come to Maya, the girl, in her dreams. She takes her on an incredible journey to show her the beauty beneath the ocean, and when Maya wakes up, she has lost her fears and becomes

courageous,” said Ms. Lucy, who has her teaching credential from UCSB and a master’s degree in counseling psychology from Antioch University in Santa Barbara. In addition to “Mermaid Dreams,” which won the Children’s Book of the Year Award for 2020 from Creative Child Magazine, she has written “Moon Mother, Moon Daughter — Myths and Rituals that Celebrate a Girl’s Coming of Age”; “The Three Sunflowers,” which won the Children’s Book of the Year Award in 2018; “Los Tres Girasoles” (bilingual version of “The Three Sunflowers”); and “Suenos de Sirena” (bilingual version of “Mermaid Dreams”). Colleen McCarthy-Evans created the illustrations for “Mermaid Dreams.” “The book wouldn’t be as magical without Colleen’s watercolors,” said Ms. Lucy. Please see MERMAIDS on A6

Last month, 173 girls who attend Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara received copies of the book, which includes a discussion guide and activities for its young readers. “Mermaid Dreams� is published by Seven Seas Press, a local nonprofit that donates books and partners with organizations that offer direct services to children and families, locally and internationally. Partners are Ms. Lucy, Ms. McCarthy-Evans and Ms. Romer, who also serves as executive director. “I imagine the ‘Strong, Smart and Bold’ girls at Girls Inc. might empathize with the fears and dreams of the protagonist Maya in ‘Mermaid Dreams’ and find inspiration, comfort and joy in her beautiful undersea journey. I hope this book offers the girls and their families an additional resource this summer and beyond,� said Ms. Lucy. Email: mmcmahon@newspress.com

LIFE

SANTA BARBARA NEWS-PRESS

“Let every eye negotiate for itself and trust no agent.� — William Shakespeare

ARIES — Vivid dreams are likely to cause you to wake up feeling angry for no clear reason, Aries. You might want to take a close look at your dreams and try to analyze them so you can understand the source of your anger and how best to get over it. Later today, some disconcerting news about money is likely to prove groundless, so don’t get stressed out. TAURUS — Either your lover or a colleague is likely to be irritable today, Taurus, which you might find upsetting. Bear in mind that this person’s mood probably has little, if anything, to do with you or anything you’ve said or done. Just stay out of the way until your friend gets over it. This isn’t a good day to host or attend social events or even accept invitations. Wait until a better time. GEMINI — Too many unfinished tasks may have you feeling pressured, Gemini, creating unnecessary stress. Pace yourself and don’t panic if you have to let some go for now. You’re probably feeling more sensitive than usual, so you might also pick up stress from the people around you. Take periodic breaks and go for a walk. This should clear your head and make things easier for you. CANCER — Emotions run high as disagreements turn into quarrels among members of a group you’re affiliated with, Cancer. Stay out of it. It won’t do you any good to get involved. Write your impressions and share them after tempers have cooled. You might want to make one final push toward reaching a personal goal, but forces beyond your control could block you. Try to remain patient. LEO — Pressure to get unfinished tasks completed and new ones begun causes emotions to run high, Leo. Everyone, including you, is likely to feel tired and stressed, and quarrels may erupt. It might be best if you focus on the tasks at hand and ignore the petty squabbles that crop up around you. This will keep your blood pressure down and reassure those you want to impress. VIRGO — If you’re able to be involved in a class or any kind of group activity or social situation, be prepared for quarrels to break out among people there, Virgo. You could find this counterproductive and useless. You might be tempted to try to break in and put a stop to it. It’s best to stay out of it. Work out +*#!2 +1$)"$your frustration by walking home.

You’ll feel better. LIBRA — Frustration could tempt you to release that energy by spending a lot of money, Libra. You might overindulge in food or drink or resort to impulse buying. Treat yourself a little, but don’t go overboard. You don’t want to get an upset stomach, and you won’t want to have to take unwanted items back to the store. Get some exercise or throw your passion into creative pursuits. SCORPIO — Frustrated energy resulting from an inability to put plans into action could have your nerves on edge today, Scorpio. You might be tempted to get into petty quarrels with those around you. Try to find other outlets for your energy in order to avoid this trap. There’s also the danger that you might take impulsive action. Stop and think before you act, or your efforts might be wasted. SAGITTARIUS — Overwork and the resulting stress and nerve strain could result in tension headaches today, Sagittarius. It might be a good idea to start the day pacing yourself and concentrating on the most pressing tasks. Don’t worry if you have to leave some for later. There’s a chance that others around you might get into some rather heated arguments. Stay out of it. This would only make you feel worse. CAPRICORN — You’re probably feeling especially energetic but with little if any outlet for your energy, Capricorn. Increased irritability and frustration could tempt you to take it out on friends, children, or your significant other. On days like this you might want to consider jogging, yoga, or aerobics. These can produce endorphins that override the stress. Go for it. AQUARIUS — A conflict between career and home obligations could arise today, Aquarius. You may feel powerless, so it could make you feel irritable. Try to think clearly and find a solution for your conundrum, then act on it. Avoid the temptation to quarrel with others. Go for a good workout in the evening. Whether dancing or jogging, just work off some of that frustration. PISCES — This could be a challenging day, Pisces. You might receive a call that brings disconcerting news, making you angry or upset. You could be tempted to take it out on the caller, but don’t. He or she is just the messenger. Short trips in the neighborhood could find you in impossible traffic. If you have to go out today, you might reach your destination more quickly by walking.

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. 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.

was canceled in compliance with the orders of county and city officials. Though spectators of the car parade were encouraged to wave at the caravan from the comfort of their homes, local officials told Old Spanish Days that the event could encourage groups of people to gather in groups along the parade route, violating the orders of the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department.

SCHAAP, Gail Ann

Oscar was born in Bell, CA 70 years ago and passed away gently at home on July 30, 2020, where he was cared for and surrounded by his devoted family. He grew up in Santa Barbara, was an avid surfer who loved the coastal hot spots from Rincon to Jalama Beach, and he often enjoyed hiking in the local mountains. Oscar was a veteran having served in the US Army. He was stationed at Fort Ord, CA during the Vietnam era. He moved with his family to Paso Robles in 1986 and was a retired Letter Carrier for the US Postal Service.

Gail Ann Schaap, 60, (nee’ Benson), adored and beloved wife of Tony Schaap for 36 years, passed away August 2nd at their home in Rancho Mirage, CA, after a courageous and valiant five-year battle with cancer.

In lieu of flowers, donations to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital would be greatly appreciated.

HAMILTON, Dr. Thomas William

Dr. Thomas William Hamilton Jr. peacefully passed away surrounded by his family on Thursday, July 30th, while listening to his favorite Frank Sinatra songs. Tom fought a courageous six-year battle with cancer. Tom was born in June of 1938 and raised in Evansville, Indiana along with his three brothers and three sisters. He graduated from Mater Dei High School as a standout athlete in both football and basketball. He later went on to play basketball for the University of Evansville Purple Aces – a team that won the NCAA Division II Championship in 1960. Tom would often be found sporting his Purple Aces apparel to support his Alma Mater. He earned his Medical Degree from Indiana University School of Medicine and became a Family Physician in 1970. That year, Tom and his former wife (Judith Smith) and their children moved to California where he completed his Residency at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital. In 1985, he and his partners joined forces with Sansum Clinic where he would practice for the remainder of his career. In that same year, Tom married his current wife Jennifer Allen Hamilton. After 44 years of practicing medicine, Tom retired in 2014. His work was truly rewarding; he had the pleasure of treating multiple generations and watching his young patients grow up and start families of their own. Tom had an innate passion for helping others. Family was Tom’s top priority, both his immediate and extended family. He regularly traveled back to Evansville, Indiana to attend annual family reunions and catch up with longtime friends. One of his favorite things to do back home was to go to the Horse Races at Ellis Park with his brothers and sisters. Tom was an avid reader and well versed in many areas including medicine, spirituality and religion, nutrition, world history and biographies. You would think he read plenty of card playing books with the number of games he always seemed to effortlessly win against his family and friends. His passion for sports was eternal and contagious. He loved to share and teach this passion with his children, attending nearly every game. Raised as a religious man, he found joy and community in being a member of Santa Barbara Hope Church. You could find him wearing a bright blue shirt and an infectious smile, handing out name tags as the ‘Church Greeter’ on Sunday mornings. It is incredible to reflect on how many lives Tom impacted in a positive way; he had this way of making others want to be a better version of themselves. Tom had a genuine love for life and he sure did it right. Tom was preceded in death by his mother Thelma and sister Betty. He is survived by his siblings Bob, Allen, John, Margaret and Judy. Tom is survived by his loving wife of 34 years Jennifer, his four children Michael (daughter in-law Nancy), Angela, Matthew, Evan, and three granddaughters – Austin, Jordan and Madison. With a heart full of compassion and kindness, Tom’s presence will be deeply missed by all those fortunate enough to know him. We would like to give a special thank you to Doctors Newman, Ransohoff and Suh for all of their help along the way. We would also like to thank the Hospice Team for all their support and assistance. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to The Ridley-Tree Cancer Center: Cfsb.org/giving-to-cfsb/ Celebration of Life to be announced at a later date.

Born August 17, 1959 in Chicago, the youngest of four siblings, Gail grew up in Park Ridge, IL, before following her brother out to Santa Barbara, CA, at the adventurous age of eighteen. She was the delight and joy of the family: full of happiness, kindness, and loveliness. She had many friends and admirers and was voted “Most Beautiful” her senior year at Maine South High School, but she was equally loved for her inner beauty, wit and personality. She was one of the most caring people you would ever meet in life; she was unforgettable, and she is very deeply missed. Gail worked at Westmont College when she moved to Santa Barbara, and met a soccer player from the Netherlands, Tony Schaap. They fell in love and were married in May 1984, enjoying all the benefits of a SoCal lifestyle and eventually settling in Goleta, where they lived until May of this year. Gail also worked for fifteen years at Mission Industries of Santa Barbara, in an administration position. Her most rewarding and fulfilling role, however, was to become a Golden Retriever Mother, and over the years, raise five rambunctious puppies, in succession: Coco, Augie, Chester, Tula and Karlee. Gail is preceded in death by her parents, Paul and Beth Benson, and nephew, Chad Wilson. She is survived by her husband, Tony Schaap; sister-in-law, Jeannette (Rolf) Voorraad; two sisters; Joan (Gary) Jonland, and Holly Benson; a brother, Jonathan (Shelley) Benson; five nieces: Kristin (Clint) Fannin; Kathryn (Adam) Frost; Isabelle and Ingrid Jonland, and Jillian Benson (Jon Beyreuther); two nephews: Joe (Emily) Benson, and Mike (Christine) Benson; fourteen grand-nieces and nephews, and her faithful companion and dog, Karlee. The Celebration of Life for Gail is postponed due to the current national health directives; however, it will be announced as soon as there is no further threat to the safety and well being of family, friends and loved ones. Much love and appreciation to All who have reached out to Tony and family during this time. We want to thank all the doctors of Ridley-Tree Cancer Center for their devoted service to Gail. Memorial donations may be sent to: Cancer Foundation of Santa Barbara 601 W. Junipero Street Santa Barbara, CA 93105
