Local hospitality industry shows healthy recovery Santa Barbara County performing better than other areas By FORREST MCFARLAND NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

The Santa Barbara County hospitality industry is recovering faster than the rest of Southern California. After overall unemployment peaked at around 14% in April 2020, the hospitality industry looked exceptionally grim. Leisure and hospitality jobs were down around 50% at the start of this year compared to 2020. With the addition of corporate travelers disappearing due to restrictions, tourism for both business and pleasure were both

plummeting. According to the American Hotel and Lodging Association, the hotel industry will finish 2021 down more than $59 billion in business travel revenue from 2019 after losing nearly $49 billion in business travel revenue in 2020. However, Santa Barbara County bounced back at a surprising rate. “Compared to other vacation destinations in the state, the South Coast’s recovery continues to outpace our competitors,” Kathy Janega-Dykes, president and CEO of Visit Santa Barbara, told the News-Press.

Visit Santa Barbara reported that, by this summer, hotels in the county outperformed competitors throughout Southern California. Mrs. Janega-Dykes told the News-Press that, while international travel faded to a negligible percentage, “leisure travel by Californians remains robust, exceeding many of our earlier predictions.” This tourism from Californians allowed for the South Coast to recover rapidly compared to the rest of the state. Santa Barbara County continued to move forward with projects that fueled the momentum behind restorative tourism.

“Recent improvements to air service at Santa Barbara Airport continue to give Santa Barbara a strategic advantage with lower costs, increased convenience and more seats available for residents and visitors alike,” Mrs. Janega-Dykes told the News-Press. The summer as well as various holidays quickly raised occupancy and made the coast of Santa Barbara shine. “Based on the most recent four week period, occupancy was at 77%, compared to 61% in 2020 and 75% in 2019,” Mrs. Janega-Dykes cited for the News-Press. As the holiday season approaches,

SB playoff run ends

Visit Santa Barbara is anticipating this momentum to continue for the rest of the year. “Many Santa Barbara businesses and organizations are planning unique holiday events and celebrations that we expect visitors will enjoy,” Mrs. JanegaDykes noted. With the anticipation of local businesses and COVID-19 cases trending downward, the positive performance of tourism in Santa Barbara County is likely to continue through the year. email: fmcfarland@newspress.com

Elings Park gets support for trail improvements Trek Foundation helps efforts By KATHERINE ZEHNDER NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

Over the next 20 years, Elings Park’s nine miles of trails will be improved, expanded and sustained thanks to the financial support of the Trek Foundation. The local SAGE Trail Alliance will begin work later this month. The alliance has provided trail stewardship for decades. The stewardship includes trail maintenance and construction. “Due to mud, people have put in ruts and erosion after rains, and trails

have been amended to change grade and help the water run-off. Some trails are user-created, so old trails will be denaturalized and redesigned,” SAGE Executive Director Dillion Osleger told the News-Press. The donation will also cover the creation of a trail map covering the entire park, which will be made available to the public for free and featured on two new information kiosks. The new trail map will be made available to the public in a digital format and on several new map kiosks that are being constructed by SAGE

Trek Bicycle was founded by John and Tania Burke. Mr. Burke is the CEO of Trek Bicycle, and Ms. Burke is the CEO of Trek Travel. “One of the requirements for the grant is actively pursuing more youth mountain biking, which will be in partnership with NICA (National Interscholastic Cycling Association),” Mr. Noble said. Elings Park is one of four initial projects funded by the Trek Foundation. The project met funding criteria designed to ensure Please see PARK on A6

with funding from the donation. “We have experienced an explosion of trail use due to the COVID-19 quarantine and the growth in the popularity of mountain biking. This generous funding will take our trails from ‘good’ to ‘outstanding’ and also benefits the park’s many walkers and hikers who share the trails with cyclists,” said Dean Noble, Elings Park’s executive director. The Trek Foundation was founded in July 2021 by Trek Bicycle, a global leader in the manufacture and design of bicycles and bicycle-related products.

(The Center Square) — A federal appeals court on Friday ordered the Biden administration to stop implementation of its private sector vaccine mandate until multiple legal challenges work their way through the court system. The ruling, from the Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans, comes in response to dozens of lawsuits filed by coalitions of states, business groups and individuals in response to President Joe Biden’s orders requiring American workers to be vaccinated against COVID-19, agree to regular testing or lose their jobs. “The Fifth Circuit’s decision to put a stop to the Biden Administration’s illegal vaccine mandate is a huge win for liberty and cements the reality that this mandate is an overreach by the federal government that would cause irreversible damage to American businesses and workers,” Sarah Harbison, general counsel at the Louisianabased Pelican Institute for Public Policy, said in a statement. The Pelican Institute and Chicago-based Liberty Justice Center are representing businessman Brandon Trosclair, who owns 15 grocery stores in Louisiana and Mississippi, employing nearly 500 people. Under President Joe Biden’s direction, the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration last week released details of the private sector vaccine mandate, which seeks to require private employers with 100 or more workers to provide proof they are vaccinated against COVID-19 or submit to weekly testing. The mandate, which could affect an estimated 100 million American workers, includes a Jan. 4 deadline for vaccination. The policy also would impose nearly $14,000 in fines per employee if businesses are caught letting their workers skirt the mandate. “Today’s ruling marks a tremendous success because the court recognizes how this mandate would impair our liberty and infringe on our constitutional rights,” Mr. Trosclair said in a statement provided by Liberty Justice Center. “I am proud to be in this fight on behalf of not just my employees, but all Americans. It’s wrong for the federal government to order me to interfere in the private medical decisions of my team members or to impose insurmountable costs on my businesses.” The Fifth Circuit last Saturday issued a temporary stay on the private sector vaccine mandate, citing “grave” constitutional concerns. In it’s Friday’s ruling, a three judge panel of the court added to its concerns. “The Mandate threatens to substantially burden the liberty interests of reluctant individual recipients put to a choice between their job(s) and their jab(s),” the panel wrote. It ordered that the private sector mandate “remains stayed pending adequate judicial review Please see MANDATE on A4

High inflation hurts spending bill’s chances

Medicare Supplements Medicare Advantage Plans

By CASEY HARPER THE CENTER SQUARE SENIOR REPORT

(The Center Square) — Skyrocketing inflation and consumer costs are hurting President Joe Biden’s and congressional Democrats’ hopes to pass another major spending bill through the reconciliation process. The Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics this week reported an 8.6% increase in wholesale prices over the past 12 months, the highest increase in years. The federal agency also said this week that the consumer price index, another key tracker of inflation, is rising at the fastest rate in decades. These economic woes have serious political implications for Democrats. U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., pointed to the latest inflation data

this week, saying “D.C. can no longer ignore” the problem. “By all accounts, the threat posed by record inflation to the American people is not ‘transitory’ and is instead getting worse,” Sen. Manchin said. “From the grocery store to the gas pump, Americans know the inflation tax is real, and D.C. can no longer ignore the economic pain Americans feel every day.” Sen. Manchin is a key vote in the reconciliation process who has cited inflation as a reason to oppose President Biden’s “Build Back Better” plan. Sen. Manchin’s agreement is key to the Democrats’ hopes of enacting the spending proposal. Republicans have also repeatedly pointed to inflation as a reason to oppose the plan, which does not have the same political support as the recently passed bipartisan infrastructure bill. Democrats now have the tough job of selling an even larger federal spending bill to Americans amid rising inflation concerns. So far, they have argued more federal spending will actually help inflation, not hurt it. “The best way to address inflation is to pass a bill that creates jobs, reduces bottlenecks, and is totally paid for by making sure the wealthy pay their fair share,” Majority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said. “That’s just what we’re doing with the Build Back Better Act.” President Biden has made a similar point, arguing his legislation could address the problem. “Reversing this trend is a top priority,” Mr. Biden said. “My infrastructure bill will bring down costs by reducing bottlenecks, and I urge Congress to pass my Build Back Better Act — which will ease inflationary pressures.” Critics, though, have pushed back on this claim, especially since rising federal debt accelerates inflation. The federal government prints more money

to help pay for debt obligations, which leads to higher prices over time. “Unfortunately, the spending proposed by (Sen. Schumer) risks persistent, elevated inflation as the Federal Reserve is likely to create trillions more of fiat currency to purchase government bonds, financing the gusher of federal spending,” said Joel Griffith, a financial expert at the Heritage Foundation. “This is also known as monetizing the national debt — issuing new fiat currency to finance deficit spending. This alternative to borrowing from the public or raising taxes to finance the spending results in the supply of fiat currency chasing limited economic resources and leads to the price of those resources increasing – i.e., inflation.” The Biden administration has also argued the inflation is “transitory.” Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said this week it would level out next year, attempting to alleviate concerns. Mr. Griffith said the federal spending is actually making the problem worse, not helping. He also rebuffed claims that the current inflation will be temporary. Some economists have said elevated inflation could easily continue into 2023. “Without a doubt, the rise in federal spending the past year — financing by the Federal Reserve — is contributing to the very large burst of inflation,” he added. “Inflation is political. The federal government is now working hand in hand with the central bank to allow them to spend enormous quantities of money without, right now, raising taxes outright. Families which experienced a rise in cost of living exceeding their income this past year will continue to feel the consequences of this so-called ‘transitory’ inflation for years to come. The left-wing spending proposal risks more of the same.” That rise in inflation makes goods and services more expensive for Americans. Energy prices in particular have been a pain point for Americans and for Democrats in leadership as prices continue to skyrocket. “The all items index rose 6.2% for the 12 months ending October, the largest 12-month increase since the period ending November 1990,” BLS said. “The index for all items less food and energy rose 4.6 % over the last 12 months, the largest 12-month increase since the period ending August 1991. The energy index rose 30% over the last 12 months, and the food index increased 5.3%.”

Westmont women’s soccer team in championship game By RON SMITH WESTMONT SPORTS WRITER

It came down to a shootout, but the No. 16 Westmont women’s soccer team (10-14) has advanced to today’s championship game of the 2021 Golden State Athletic Conference Tournament. The Warriors benefited from an equalizing goal by junior forward Grace Duckens in the 56th minute of their match Thursday against The Master’s (9-3-5) that eventually forced the penalty kicks. “That has been the story of this team, this season — the grind,” said Westmont head coach Jenny Jaggard. “There have been a lot of games this season when we have dug ourselves a hole and had to come out of it. “I am proud of them for responding. I wish they wouldn’t go flat in these moments and give teams those opportunities, but they do know how to respond. I am super proud of the battle.” That hole resulted from a goal in the 28th minute by Jordyn Bingaman, less than two minutes after she entered the game. Brandi Meyer crossed the ball from the right side and found Bingaman inside

the six-yard box breaking for the goal. Binghaman’s left-footed shot from a yard out found the underside of the top netting to put the Mustangs ahead. Down 1-0 at intermission, Jaggard was eager to see how her team would react to the deficit. “That was what you are looking for as a coach,” said Jaggard. “Are they going to come out like they are defeated, or are they going to come out like their hair is on fire and on a serious mission? This team responds. That is a huge piece of being a playoff team. Obviously, if we could score some more goals, that would alleviate some pressure too, but they obviously have a mentality that doesn’t stop. That is the important part of this team today.” While Westmont outshot The Master’s in both halves, the intensity with which the Warriors played in the second half was represented by the margin of opportunities. Westmont held an 8-4 shot advantage in the opening frame, then increased their offensive output in the second half with a 9-2 differential. Eleven minutes into the second half, Teagan Matye dribbled the ball from beyond the midfield stripe down the

middle of the field. About 25 yards out, Matye passed the ball to Shayna Stock on the left-hand side. Stock settled the ball, then served it into the six-yard box as both Reese Davidson and Duckens were breaking toward the goal. Davidson, one-touched the ball back to Duckens with her left foot who needed just one touch from her right foot to put it past the keeper. Neither team produced another goal through the final 34 minutes of the second half, nor either 10-minute overtime period. As a result, the game officially was declared a tie. In postseason play, however, one team needs to advance, which is decided by penalty kicks. Westmont went first in the shootout with Davidson and The Master’s Emma Hopkins each making their attempts. Daisy Alvarez for the Warriors and Kyndel Borman for the Mustangs followed suit, resulting in a 2-2 score. Katie Stella made the Warriors’ third attempt before Ariana Romero, the Mustangs’ keeper, became a shooter. Romero’s shot went wide left, resulting in a 3-2 lead for the home team.

After Ande Siegel converted her penalty kick to give Westmont a 4-2 lead, The Master’s Payton Williams was faced with having to make her shot or Westmont would win the shootout. Williams did just that making the score 4-3. Karly Kingsley then had an opportunity to win the shootout for the Warriors, but had her shot saved by Romero, leaving the score at 4-3. Elizabeth Radmilovic then faced another do-or-die situation for the Mustangs, and she too kept hopes alive for The Master’s, resulting in a 4-4 score. Taylie Scott was called upon next for the Warriors and made her shot, to continue putting the pressure on The Master’s. Hannah Burke took the third mustmake shot for the Mustangs. Burke’s shot went head-high toward the center of the net. Westmont keeper Kailey Meyer, who had moved slightly to her left, was able to reach back with both hands and knock down the ball, preventing it from entering the goal. With the shootout’s outcome decided 5-4, the Warriors rushed the field to congratulate Meyer and celebrate advancing to today’s final.

“We have done a lot of penalty kick practice, so that was not an arbitrary alignment,” noted Jaggard. “We actually practiced at this same time yesterday, with the sun in our eyes, toward that goal. So, there is a little bit of home field advantage there. It is so easy to get super stressed in those moments and change your mind halfway through. Each of our shooters just picked their corner and put it in. “Kailey has done a fantastic job of challenging us to get better at those penalty kicks because she reads the shooters and saves the attempts. Obviously, for her to be able to make that final save was exciting. She just grinds in practice. For her to get her moment to shine was big. She never gets stats because our team doesn’t get shot on. It’s fun for her to get to be the hero.” Westmont will host the Royals of Hope International (12-0-2) in the championship game at 1 p.m. today.

New trails, ecological restoration part of plan Ciattarelli concedes PARK

Continued from Page A1 a meaningful, long-lasting contribution to the community, its riders and the planet. “Our world needs more people on bikes and people need great places to ride those bikes. This investment in Elings Park will help get more people on their bikes and outside in the awesome ecosystems of the Central Coast,” said Bob Burns, Trek Bicycle vice president of advocacy. In addition to maintaining the existing trails, SAGE will also develop new trails and provide ecological restoration of key areas. SAGE is partnering with White Buffalo Land Trust to remove the park’s invasive, non-native plants and replant with raised-bed, native gardens. The two main key areas being ecologically restored are on the south side of the park, the first being near Las Positas Road and the second being near Cliff Drive, Mr. Osleger told the News-Press. The south side of the park is where the trails are. All the area high schools use the park for their track and field meets. Elings is the largest park in Santa Barbara and is heavily used by people from diverse

neighborhoods. “There is value and equity in nature access. I want to provide as much access and education as possible for people to come out and experience nature closer to their homes,” said Mr. Osleger. The project of restoring and maintaining Elings Park, using funding from the Trek Foundation donation, is based on research that has been done by Mr. Osleger. Trek Bicycle has been funding Mr. Osleger’s research for the past five years, through the donations of the owners, to SAGE. That support is continuing through Trek Foundation, which was formed in July 2021 as a DBA (“doing business as”). According to Mr. Osleger’s research, the land that the park now sits on was historically a city dump, then a sheep farm. So the land has been previously inhabited by horses and lots of sheep. “For over 20 years, SAGE has worked with Elings to provide free trail access in town, now we look to the next 20. We are ecstatic to begin a new phase with our longtime partner the Trek Foundation to improve the experience and landscape for all users, and to help make Elings Park the epicenter of outdoor activity in Santa Barbara,” said Mr. Osleger.

Added Mr. Noble, “I hope we have built some really healthy habits and once people get a taste of hiking, biking etc., they may not renew their gym memberships.” Mr. Noble said the dollar amount of Trek Foundation’s donation for Elings Park isn’t being released at this time, but they are looking at a multi-year partnership. “Trek is also allowing us to offer sponsorships. It’s a super investment in trails, the future of the park and the youth,” Mr. Noble said. Many mountain bike trails are steep and difficult to access, but the trails at Elings Park are perfect for families and children, according to local mountain bikers. “Many trails were not made with the ecological science we have now,” Mr. Noble told the News-Press. “Many trails will be refurbished, and some may even be decommissioned if necessary. We want to be sensitive to plant and animal life, as well as the natural flow of water.” Some unique attractions in the park include nationally recognized sculptures in south bluff, goats, sheep, lamas and two paragliding schools: Eagle Paragliding and Fly Above All Paragliding. Elings Park is the home of the oldest continuously operated

Disneyland is now 100-acres with the addition of the new Star Wars exhibit (Galaxy’s Edge),” Mr. Noble said. “Elings Park is 238 acres, approximately 120 of which are trails, smack dab in the middle of the Santa Barbara Mesa.” email: kzehnder@newspress.com

(The Center Square) — Former Republican Assemblyman Jack Ciattarelli conceded defeat in New Jersey’s governor’s race on Friday, narrowly losing to incumbent Gov. Phil Murphy. With the victory, Mr. Murphy became the first Democratic governor in New Jersey to win re-election since Brendan Byrne in 1977. With about 2.6 million ballots cast, the governor had a roughly 74,000-vote advantage over Ciattarelli. “I’ve worked every day and night for 22 months to become New Jersey’s governor,” the New York Post quoted Mr. Ciattarelli as saying. “You think I’d be standing here today conceding if I thought I won this election? You couldn’t be more wrong.” The race was closer than many politicos expected, and most watchers nationwide turned their focus to Virginia’s

governor’s election. The state has roughly 1 million more registered Democrats than Republicans, and last year, President Joe Biden won New Jersey by 16 percentage points. Despite the loss at the top of the ticket, Republicans found success elsewhere in the Garden State. In South Jersey’s 3rd District, Republican Edward Durr, a political newcomer, knocked off New Jersey Senate President Steve Sweeney, DGloucester. While most media outlets already called the election for Mr. Murphy, the Ciattarelli campaign kept an eye on outstanding ballots to see if they might tip the balance in his favor. “I hate to lose,” The Wall Street Journal quoted Ciattarelli as saying. “But I’m also someone who believes strongly in our republic and our democratic processes. Enough votes have been counted. There does not appear to be a path to victory, or the basis for a recount.”

DEATH NOTICE CRAWFORD, Leland McCormack, Jr.

DOWLING, Dorothy (Eichelberger)

On September 23, 2021, Leland McCormack Crawford, Jr. passed peacefully at home in Montecito. Family and caregivers were by his side.

Born in San Jose and raised in Santa Barbara, California, Dorothy was the youngest child of Lela (Rubeck) Eichelberger and Roy Eichelberger. Her siblings were brother Robert Eichelberger, and sisters Helen (Eichelberger) Barry and Alta Ruth (Eichelberger) Wallin Huntley.

July 10, 1929 — September 23, 2021

Leland, the youngest of three children, was born at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital on July 10, 1929. He spent his childhood riding bikes with his two sisters from the Santa Barbara Mission to the Montecito Country Club, the Coral Casino, Miramar Beach and the muni tennis courts. He later graduated from Santa Barbara High School and UC Berkeley, where he met his wife Francesca Jensen. He was an active Chi Phi fraternity brother and finished his law degree at UC Hastings. After serving in the U.S. Army, Leland practiced law for 52 years in Santa Barbara, 7 of those years in partnership with his father. Always civic minded, Leland served frequently as President of the board -- sometimes more than twice -- for the following organizations: Rotary Club of Santa Barbara, The State Bar Associations of both Santa Barbara and CA, Casa Dorinda, Lobero Theatre, Montecito Retirement Association, Santa Barbara Mental Health Association, and the State of CA Mental Health Association. He served as a board member for the Boy Scouts of America, Kiwanis Club, Montecito YMCA, Santa Barbara Historical Society, and Valley Club, the latter his pride and joy for being one of its longest-term members.

Leland read volumes of historical novels and books on US and world history, rarely missing the chance to debate history or current affairs. Never a dull moment be had when in his company. He shall be missed. Leland was predeceased by his mother Mae McCormack and his father Leland Morris Crawford; his sisters Eleanor Cassedy and Elizabeth Fee; and his adoring, beloved wife Francesca Jensen Crawford, whom he finally joins to continue their eternity of love and friendship. Leland is survived by his devoted daughter Paula Emmens and her husband Bruce; son Leland M.

DEWEESE, Joel T. , M.D.

The world has lost a true Renaissance man.

Joel Towne Deweese was born in Brooklyn, NY, on October 14, 1942. His parents were both native Nebraskans. His mother, Rowena Merle Beadle Deweese, from Kearny, was the first woman to graduate from the University of Nebraska with a degree in journalism and drama. His father, Wilford Joel Deweese, from Lincoln, was a surgery resident at King’s County Hospital in Brooklyn at the time of Joel’s birth. His father’s residency was interrupted by service in a mobile field surgical hospital in Italy during WWII. In January 1947, the family moved to Bemidji, MN, where Joel’s mother founded the Paul Bunyan Playhouse and his father started a long and successful career as a general surgeon. Joel graduated from Bemidji High School in 1960 as a National Merit Scholar Finalist; Dartmouth College in 1964 Phi Beta Kappa with a major in biology; and the University of Minnesota Medical School in 1968 with an M.D. degree. Following a year’s internship at Weld County General Hospital in Greeley, CO, Joel returned to Bemidji, where he wore the many hats of a small-town general medical practitioner. An auto accident in November 1977 caused permanent quadriplegia. In 1979, he moved to Santa Barbara where he taught medical terminology to court reporting students and the lecture portion of California EMT certification at Santa Barbara City College. In 1981, he married Mary Liebl of Sheboygan, WI, in a beautiful lake-side ceremony at his parents’ home in Bemidji. Their life together in Santa Barbara was full of fun, laughter, family, and friends. They also shared and loved numerous wonderful cats throughout the years. Early in his life, Joel enjoyed being an ultra-active outdoorsman – cross country, downhill, and water skilling, tennis, golf, bird-hunting and canoeing were some of his passions. In the summers, he guided campers on trips to the Quetico Canoe country of Ontario and Minnesota. In the spring of 1961, sitting number four, he helped power the Dartmouth freshman lightweight 8-man crew to victory after victory, culminating in the setting of the course record at the National Rowing Championships in Worcester, MA. A voracious reader, Joel’s vast knowledge extended to science, nature, medicine, sports, his beloved classical music, poetry, literature, fine wine, and Irish Whiskey. He was an avid devotee of the study of WWII; indeed, his knowledge on the subject rivaled the best scholars in the field. His wry sense of humor and quick wit were always a source of entertainment and amusement. Joel was a loving and devoted husband, son, and brother to five younger siblings. A fiercely loyal and devoted friend, he cultivated and cherished lifelong friendships, some for more than seventy years. An intellectual until the end, two weeks before his death, Joel was still winning his favorite board game of Trivial Pursuit against family and cherished/treasured/dear friend, Marty McKenzie. Mary will really miss her “Mr. Google.” Joel’s siblings would like to acknowledge his amazing wife, Mary, for her devotion and loving care for him during their life together. Joel’s mother often referred to Mary as “Joel’s Angel.” While all of the siblings treasured their many visits to Santa Barbara with Joel and Mary over the years, a special acknowledgement to his brother Mac, who resides in Massachusetts, for his numerous and varied home improvement projects as well as the many instances of respite care he provided for Joel. Joel passed away at home on September 12, 2021, surrounded by friends and family. He is survived by his wife of 39 years, Mary Liebl Deweese; his siblings - Mac Deweese (Robin Fies), Sarah Lewandowski (Doug), Wilf Deweese (Chris), Dr. Sam Deweese (Dr. Janet Bergeron), Jennifer Deweese (Clem Czerniak), numerous nieces and nephews, and his first wife, Dr. Natalie Roholt. His survivors also include in-laws Mardi Kemp (John), Jack Liebl (Pam), Tom Liebl (Lisa) and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, Dr. W.J. (Bill) and Rowena Deweese and in-laws Robert and Helen Liebl formerly of Sheboygan, WI. The family is deeply grateful for Joel’s wonderful doctors including Dr. Stanley McLain at Sansum Clinic in Santa Barbara, the visiting nurses and hospice of Santa Barbara and all of the other care givers throughout the years.

Dorothy (Eichelberger) Dowling of Sunnyvale, California, passed away quietly on Wednesday, November 3rd, 2021. She was 94 years old.

Dorothy was the daughter of the founding principal of Santa Barbara Junior High School. She earned a degree in Elementary Education because, as her father told his daughters, “You can always ﬁnd work as a teacher.” She graduated from UCSB in 1948, was a member of Chi Alpha Delta, Kappa Delta Pi and Crown & Scepter. She went on to teach at Ingelwood and Santa Barbara elementary schools. At age 15, Dorothy met her future husband, Lescher Dowling, at a school dance. He was immediately smitten and did his best to win her affection, but it wasn’t until Lescher was drafted into the army during WW2 to serve overseas in the CBI that Dorothy decided it was her patriotic duty to write to him regularly. It was during their wartime correspondence that their relationship really blossomed. They were married in Montecito on July 16th, 1950. Dorothy is survived by her beloved husband of 71 years, Lescher Dowling, her children; Richard Dowling and Lela (Dowling) Cirocco, and grandchildren; Sara and Skye, and great-grandchildren; Katheryne, Kimberly, Brielli, and Gianna as well as many nephews and nieces.

‘Restless Devices’

Westmont professor explores digital age dilemma By MARILYN MCMAHON

COURTESY PHOTOS

“Our natural longing for relationship makes us vulnerable to the industrializing effects of social media. While we enjoy the benefits of digital tech, many of us feel troubled with its power and exhausted by its demands for permanent connectivity,” said Dr. Felicia Wu Song, the Westmont professor who wrote ““Restless Devices: Recovering Personhood, Presence and Place in the Digital Age.”

ages 5 to 12. In previous years, the kids’ run has been held simultaneously with the adult run. This year the Kids Turkey Dash, a one-mile run, will kick-off at 9 am.m. The 3 Mile Fun Run is open to ages 13 and older and will kickoff at 9:30 a.m. Top overall male and female children and adults will be awarded a turkey, along with photos for the second and third overall winners. Medals will be awarded to the first- and second-place winners in each age

ack in 1995, Felicia Wu Song stumbled upon Marshall McLuhan’s “The Medium is the Message” in a used bookstore on Newbury Street in Boston. “To my surprise I had discovered a kindred spirit from an earlier decade, asking the same unsettling questions about the subtle but powerful influence of mass media and communication technology over the lived experiences of modern life that I had fluttering in my mind,” said Dr. Song, professor of sociology at Westmont College. “McLuhan was asking questions that I heard no one else asking in our public conversations and debates. I just didn’t understand why the role of media and technology wasn’t at the foreground of all of our discussions about relationships, community, politics, education, parenting and personal identity.” Since then, Dr. Song said she hasn’t been able to stop thinking about the place of media and technology in our contemporary lives. “I continually wonder about how it shapes the most fundamental ways in which we interact, think and even perceive reality,” said Dr. Song, author of “Restless Devices: Recovering Personhood, Presence and Place in the Digital Age” (InterVarsity Press, $24). Scheduled for release Nov. 30, the book is dedicated “For the parents and digitally exhausted.” “It is difficult to imagine life without our personal devices. Today’s digital technologies are designed to captivate our attention and encroach on our boundaries, shaping how we relate to time and space, to ourselves and others, even to God,” said Dr. Song. “Our natural longing for relationship makes us vulnerable to the industrializing effects of social media. While we enjoy the benefits of digital tech, many of us feel troubled with its power and exhausted by its demands for permanent connectivity. Yet even though we grow disenchanted, attempting to resist the digital powers that be might seem like a losing battle.” She earned her bachelor’s degree in history at Yale University, her master’s in communication at Northwestern University and her doctorate in sociology at the University of Virginia. “I had the fortune of starting my academic career with the formative experience of teaching in the journalism and mass communication program at Louisiana State University during the rise of social media platforms, mobile technologies and the attention economy during the early 2000s,” said Dr. Song. “As a sociologist among industry experts and practitioners in news media, public relations, advertising and political communications, my eyes were opened anew to the massive shift occurring in the contemporary media and influence landscapes.” Her early research projects included explorations into the democratic potential of early online communities from the late 20th century, which she wrote about in her book, “Virtual Communities: Bowling Alone, Online Together” (2009). “I also did several smaller studies on the role of the digital in motherhood, including studies on the information-seeking habits of expectant mothers, online consumer research and motherhood and the evolution of ‘mommy bloggers’ into social Please see SONG on B2

She regularly speaks on digital practices, social media, the digital media industry, parenting in the digital age and spiritual formation at universities and colleges, churches, schools, parent groups and conferences. When she is not working, she enjoys reading children’s chapter books, baking breads, doing the New York Times crossword puzzles and daydreaming about becoming a bass player. “When we can imagine the grip of the digital on our lives weakened and even dissolving, we can be released from its hold and begin enjoying the fruits of experiencing freedom from our compulsions and freedom from our fears — whether they be about not being good enough, what others think of us or getting enough done,” said Dr. Song. “When this door is open, we also enter into the possibility of experiencing a freedom to be vulnerable and freedom to be fully who we are in all of our capacities and limitations.” email: mmcmahon@newspress.com

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

ARIES — The source of your frustration may be people who seem to be sensitive and honest yet act abrasively and speak aggressively. Try not to be fooled by those who continuously offer one image while delivering another. Keep your guard up. Don’t waste your time giving people more chances than they deserve. TAURUS — Have fun with people today. Talk about the fantasies you dream about coming to fruition in the coming years. Your emotions are strongly tied to your imagination. You could become defensive when someone starts to poke holes in your dreams. Use your intellect to defend yourself and the ideals you wish to live by in the future. GEMINI — Your competitive side may be a strong force in today’s activities. Before you get too emotional about any situation, use logic and cold, hard facts to defend your position. Well thought out arguments presented clearly and concisely will be more effective than an emotional explosion full of tears and harsh words. CANCER — Finding the answers you seek is easier when you take a more adamant position about where you stand now and where you want to be later. If you continue to be uncertain and relaxed about which way to proceed, others may take advantage of you. You have the strength and power to fuel your desires. It’s time to put these into effect. LEO — You’ve almost reached an important finish line. Don’t give up. This is the time to kick into high gear and get moving even more quickly than before. Your emotions may remain out in left field as they merge with your most active fantasies. Do your best to stay on track by looking forward instead of behind you. You can always change course after you reach this finish line. VIRGO — This is a good time to make decisions that bring together your need for practicality as well as desire for emotional freedom. It’s important for your mental health to have faith in your fantasies and your ability to see them through to fruition. There’s a special portal open for you today

HOROSCOPE with your name on it. LIBRA — You’re apt to feel support, though it might be hidden in unexpected places. Don’t discount anyone. Even the most caustic remarks have a touch of sensitivity and progressive thought that can help you a great deal. There’s strength in emotional truth even if you don’t want to hear it. Bitter pills may be hard to swallow, but they can be good for you. SCORPIO — It may be hard for anything to hold your attention today. Your mind may drift easily, and you may not have the patience to deal with situations that come your way. Do your best to wait until someone is finished talking before you jump in with your two cents. Be polite and respectful of others and they’ll be more respectful of yours. SAGITTARIUS — You’re trying to protect and shelter a certain part of yourself from others. This special spot in your soul that you hide from others is probably the most beautiful, since you nurture it so carefully. Don’t give up this piece of yourself too easily. Save this pristine, delicate place for someone most deserving. CAPRICORN — Although some people may think of you as a space cadet when it comes to decisions and commitments, they may see a different side of you today. Don’t be surprised if others come around to your camp once they hear your side of the story. Somehow all the pieces are fitting into place just like you knew they would. Those who doubted you will be pleasantly surprised. AQUARIUS — It may be hard to find your mental and physical home base. Your mind could be wrapped in a cloud or some sort of imaginative time warp, so be careful how you proceed. Your head is in another dimension and you aren’t paying nearly enough attention to the road ahead of you. Get off the highway and let your mind wander in a place where it’s safe to do so. PISCES — You like to recycle in your home and your workplace. Be a part of the solution instead of the problem by picking up after yourself and making sure that you aren’t leaving a mess wherever you go. The state of the environment is more of a concern every day. It’s up to each individual to make a difference.
