COVID-19: The big picture Leading physicians stress need to improve testing By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

This concludes this week’s three-part series on COVID-19. (The previous articles ran in Sunday’s and Wednesday’s News-Press.)

C

ontrolling COVID-19 means testing a lot of people and getting the results quickly. That’s according to Dr. Henning Ansorg, who would love to see more labs plus the ability for people to take the test at home. “My biggest hope is the saliva test that has been studied and approved by the FDA,” Dr. Ansorg, the Santa Barbara County health officer, told the News-Press. “It is just waiting for commercial producers to produce these sampling kits. “That would be so convenient. You would just collect the saliva in the privacy of your own home and drop it off to the doctor’s office or lab,” he said. “That’s so much easier than having to make an appointment, where someone has to wear this astronaut suit and not get infected themselves. “To get a pandemic under control, you need to test a lot of people, and you need to act on the results very quickly,” said Dr. Ansorg, who’s with the county Public Health Department. Testing makes a difference, he stressed. “You can really control the spread of the virus most effectively. “Once we identify someone as positive, we have to put them in isolation for 10 days when they won’t infect others,” he said. Dr. Ansorg noted his department has a team that does nothing but investigate positive cases and determines who may have had contact with the patients. He noted that testing has “vastly improved.” “We have seen a significant influx of new labs coming aboard and new platforms,” Dr. Ansorg said. “We have seen the turnaround time improve.” Testing during the pandemic has been done at clinics, hospitals and sites such as Earl Warren Showgrounds in Santa Barbara and Santa Maria Fairpark. The time it takes to get appointments and results varies.

Some people have seen results back in days; others, a week or longer. And getting an appointment quickly doesn’t necessarily mean fast results. The News-Press knows of one local resident who got an immediate testing appointment and was told he would get the result within several days. Instead, he waited more than a month, but was relieved to find out the test was negative. One problem is that the demand is exceeding the supplies. “Our biggest challenge is obtaining materials for our tests,” Dr. David Fisk, Cottage Health’s medical director of infection prevention and control, told the News-Press. He explained Cottage Health, the nonprofit parent company of hospitals in Santa Barbara, Goleta and Solvang, has been unable to continue one test it was doing for every patient who was admitted. “We have not received the equipment from a company to do it.” COVID-19 tests are performed with a long swab up a nostril, and Cottage Health has plenty of swabs, Dr. Fisk said. He explained the problem is a shortage of the cartridges used to process the test. So Cottage Health has had to use another test with a longer delay in getting results, he said. On a positive note, Dr. Fisk said Cottage is doing better than most other hospitals in Santa Barbara County, the region and the nation because it has four machines to run the COVID-19 tests. “Whereas, most hospitals have zero or one. “But even though we’ve done historically very well, the capacity to offer that outstanding test has been impacted by these shortages (of materials),” he said. But Dr. Fisk said he’s hoping for a resolution in the coming weeks. He added that Santa Barbara County faces competition for the testing materials from other areas with more COVID-19 cases, such as Los Angeles. “These testing materials have been redirected to higher-impact areas, but there are also changes in the manufacturing side that are impacting the supply as well,” Dr. Fisk said. “They might not be making as many (materials) as they have been.” email: dmason@newspress.com

Picks of the Week

D Grass fed beef short ribs The Pork Palace recently launched a new line of grass fed and finished beef products, including these beautiful short ribs. With everything from rib steak and T-bone, to flat iron and ground beef, you can currently find this Santa Barbara County raised and harvested meat at the weekly Saturday Santa Barbara, Sunday Camino Real, Tuesday Santa Barbara, Thursday Carpinteria, and Friday Montecito farmers’ markets. For those familiar with beef short ribs, you likely know that they can be one of the most tender finished products around, but typically after a nice low and slow cooking method to help break down the balance and fat and protein. This week I prepared beef short ribs over egg noodles, simmered in and served with a homemade vegetable tomato sauce, the FIX of the Week. Short ribs are $12 per pound.

Organic pineapple tomato One of the most picturesque tomato varieties to emerge each year, they portray a convergence of yellow, orange, pink and red on its skin, all of which swirls throughout the flesh when sliced in half. By the name, many expect the flavor to be reminiscent to that of pineapple but rather it is named after its outer ribbing that has a pineapple like appearance. Sweet and low acid, this variety is much larger than its counterparts, often averaging about 12-16 ounce per fruit. Enjoy on a sandwich, in a salad, or really any way you commonly enjoy your tomatoes. Grown and sold by Roots Farm of Los Olivos, it can be found at the weekly Saturday Santa Barbara, Tuesday Santa Barbara and Wednesday Solvang farmers markets. Certified organic, price is $3 per pound.

Carpinteria grown gala apples While we usually don’t associate Carpinteria as an apple growing area, Rodney Chow of Bright Spring Ranch currently has a nice harvest of these deeply redstreaked gala apples coming off his orchard. Available for sale at both the Saturday Santa Barbara and Tuesday Santa Barbara farmers’ markets, they are crisper and more petite in size than gala apples I am accustomed to seeing. Brimming with flavor, and very sweet, Bright Spring Ranch gala apples are harvested fresh for market daily without any cold storage. They will only be available for a very limited time. Price is $3 per pound. Sam Edelman is general manager of the Santa Barbara Certified Farmers Market Association and host of “Farm to Table,” which airs live 9 a.m. Thursdays on KZSB AM 1290.

wife felt the same way when I relayed the good news to her. I believe this courtesy replaced what in the “olden days” was a request for permission from the father rather than a blessing and, in my opinion, is more appropriate. If I am correct in my assumption that “permission” has evolved to “blessing,” I wonder if it would have been more appropriate for them to have asked my wife and me together for our blessing. Your thoughts? — Proud Papa Dear Proud Papa: Men asked permission of fathers to marry their daughters in “olden days” because the daughters were considered property. They could not marry without their father’s consent. Thankfully, those customs are long gone — in western society, at least. Please stop second-guessing your sons-in-law, who both seem like gems to me. Many couples today forgo the courtesy altogether.

t least once a week, while my first grader is working his way through a remote learning session, my 3-year-old and I dive into an array of projects and activities. One of these has become a sort of in-home cooking class, something we both have come to thoroughly enjoy. Whether it’s shelling Coco black beans out of their yellow pods then seasoning and simmering to perfection, making homemade meatballs and a fresh tomato sauce, or even washing and spinning lettuce, kale, and other greens to then be placed in our refrigerator storage bins, the meals always seems to taste that much better when we both take part in the process from start to finish. This past week I picked up a nice package of grass-fed and finished beef short ribs from the Pork Palace. This cut is typically best when cooked using a low and slow cooking technique to produce a beyond tender finish. My son and I pulled out the slow cooker, then a handful of veggies from the refrigerator, as well as some reddish pink hued “rose” tomatoes from Roots Farm. With the cutting board in place, and the needed culinary equipment on hand, my kiddo stood proud

in a sturdy chair overlooking the task at hand. On the menu tonight: slow-cooked beef short ribs in puréed vegetable tomato sauce served over egg noodles. Finished with a garnish of grilled corn and cilantro. Hot sauce and sour cream optional. Beef Short Ribs Over Egg Noodles 2 pounds beef short ribs ¼ cup olive oil 1 medium onion, quartered 3 large carrots, pureed and sliced into rounds 4 large celery ribs, cut into 1-inch pieces 2 medium summer squash, cut into 1-inch pieces 6 cloves garlic, peeled, can leave whole 2 cups beef broth (can also use chicken broth or water if desired 3 large tomatoes (I used Roots Farm Rose tomatoes), stems discarded and quartered. 1 teaspoon ground cumin 4 large sprigs fresh thyme (can also use oregano) Salt and pepper 2 ears corn, grilled and kernels shucked off ½ fresh cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped 1 package egg noodles, cooked according to package instructions (or make your own!)

In a wide, deep pan, place over high heat and add ¼ cup olive oil. Remove short ribs from the package and dry on a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Place the short ribs in the pan and brown on each side, about 3-4 minutes per side. Once brown, transfer to a slow cooker. In the same pan as the short ribs were browned, brown the onion, carrots, celery, summer squash, and garlic. After about 6-7 minutes, turning occasionally, there should be a nice caramelization on the outside of the veggies. Add your broth to the pan, as well as the tomatoes, cover, and reduce to a simmer. Cook until ingredients are very tender, about 20-30 minutes. Transfer to a blender, add the cumin, and pureed until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour contents over the short ribs in the slow cooker. Cook for about 4 hours on high setting, or 7-8 hours on low setting. The short ribs are done once they pull right apart with a fork. In a bowl, add the egg noodles, then submerge in sauce. Pull the short rib meat apart into pieces and top the egg noodles. Finish by topping with grilled corn and cilantro. Yield: Serves 4.

little or no time to adjust. Even windfalls take some getting used to. Give yourself time to settle into the new circumstances. LIBRA — It looks as though change is on the horizon at work, Libra. You’ve just recently completed some long-term projects and are being recognized for your efforts. Perhaps a bonus or promotion is in store. Your affinity for technology and ability to quickly absorb new information makes you a prime candidate for a new position that’s just opened up. Grab the chance! SCORPIO — Crazy as it seems, why not plan that trip you’ve been eager to go on, Scorpio? Adventure calls, and although there are a few obstacles to stop you from answering, you can’t wait to get out of your rut. There is a great big world out there, and you can’t wait to make the time to go and see some of it! SAGITTARIUS — Prosperity is just around the corner, Sagittarius. With it comes change. Change in your job, career, or environment figures prominently today. However this change manifests, it’s bound to be positive. You’re lucky, and you’re about to hit the road to even greater success. Savor this moment, for you’ll be busy soon! CAPRICORN — Your world is changing, Capricorn, both internally and externally. You feel a need to broaden your horizons. You may be contemplating a move to a new neighborhood or trip to a faraway land. The people in your life will change as a result of this. You’re about to embark on a new phase of life, and these new friends will act as able guides. AQUARIUS — Romance is in the air today, Aquarius. It’s likely that your relationship with your loved ones will see a dramatic improvement. Perhaps some flowers will arrive unexpectedly, or you’ll be paid a sincere compliment. Harmony reigns in the work environment as well. Both people and machines run smoothly and efficiently. PISCES — You’re focused and attentive to detail. Some longstanding projects benefit from this sudden spurt of energy and get completed in record time. Children figure prominently in your life right now, Pisces. Is there one child in particular who needs some extra attention from you? Your love and support mean a lot more than you realize.

HOROSCOPE

ARIES — Don’t let others’ bad moods get you down, Aries. And don’t feel it’s your responsibility to cheer them up. Their moodiness is their business, not yours. You could be a little bit anxious today, and allowing yourself to be negatively influenced by others will do you no good at all. The general atmosphere will improve in a few days. TAURUS — It’s time to let go of the past and focus only on the future, Taurus. A new person may come into your life who can help you do just that. Communication with close friends and relatives is highlighted, and you may find yourself spending more time on the phone than usual. Enjoy this day as you anticipate your brilliant future! GEMINI — There’s definitely a downside to home ownership! Much as you love projects, Gemini, the joy is tempered when the chores never end. While your home is structurally sound, it may need some cosmetic enhancement. Try adding plants and flowers indoors. Outside, a few strategically placed pots can act as attractive focal points. You can make a difference with little effort or expense. CANCER — The glass may look half empty, but only at first glance. Keep looking at it, or perhaps change the way you look at it, and you’ll see that it indeed is half full. You may be experiencing some frustration. Computers could be down, or communication hindered in some way. Don’t get stressed. See this as an ideal time to relax since you can’t get any work done anyway. LEO — There are lots of personal and financial issues to resolve today, Leo. You may hear from your bank or see some alarming numbers on an ATM receipt. Don’t get upset. Ultimately, these matters will be resolved to your benefit. As for personal matters, you may learn some new information about someone you thought you knew well. A relationship you once considered close may not be. VIRGO — A rising tide lifts all boats. When someone close experiences a windfall or especially good luck, Virgo, the ripple effect reaches you. Change is in the air. While everything happening is positive, sometimes +*#!2 +1$)"$it feels like it’s going too quickly. You feel a bit off balance, with

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.

housing

Continued from Page A1 have to deal with a slow-moving approval process and rent caps. “I’m going to see how far I can get, but at the same time, when you’re looking at all the regulatory processes through the state and the city proposing a 2% rent cap on property owners‌ it’s too much. If that happens, I’ll pull this project and there won’t be any housing in downtown Santa Barbara because other developers will do the same thing,â€? Mr. Knell said. He said he, along with other property owners, want to see the approval process streamlined, along with less of an impact by regulations and controls. “The best located residential property that could be built in Santa Barbara is right on State Street, right in the heart of downtown,â€? he continued. “This should be a prototype of what can happen with proper planning and proper regulations. And at the end of the day, what you have is housing downtown, which you have to admit, there isn’t a location better than this.â€? The new development would be built in District 6, Councilmember Meagan Harmon’s district. She told the News-Press that while it’s early on in the process, she’s very excited about the project. “We have been asking, really imploring, developers to build rental housing in our downtown core, certainly for as long as I’ve been involved in the city and much longer than that,â€? Ms. Harmon said. “This really feels like a response to that call. It’s truly the way for our future, to bring housing to State Street and the adjacent areas and really try to continue to breathe life into our downtown core.â€?

Ms. Harmon has been a prominent voice in the discussion surrounding affordable housing. She, in conjunction with Mayor Pro Tempore Kristen Sneddon, introduced the Community Stabilization Policy Initiative, a concept exploring limiting the increased percentage landlords can charge per year on rent. The councilmembers proposed a limit of no more than a 2% increase in rent a year. In addition, under the city’s current set of ordinances, any development that makes use of certain benefits under the Average Unit-size Density program has an inclusionary requirement of providing at least 10% of total units as affordable, according to Area Median Income definition. “We have to be realistic and figure out a way to balance the cost of developing what we want to see, which is truly affordable housing for our community,� Ms. Harmon said. “Is that (10%) enough? Is that what I want to see? What I would love to see is 100% affordable. “My view is if we’re going to be incentivizing development so heavily by allowing the opportunity for height increases and removing parking restrictions, we’ve got to make sure the city gets the benefit of that bargain, which is more affordability.� One casualty of the housing development would be the removal of The Press Room, a watering hole for soccer fans, located at 15 E. Ortega St. Mr. Knell’s development would demolish it along with Restoration Hardware at 710 State St. According to Mr. Knell, The Press Room’s lease expires in a couple years regardless of the development. “I don’t put much credence in that we’re kicking them out,� he told the News-Press. “They’re

NEWS / CLASSIFIED

going to be vacating at the end of their lease anyway.� However, nearly 14,000 individuals have signed a change. org petition titled “Support saving The Press Room from being demolished by developers.� Santa Barbara native, UCSB graduate and local sales manager Travis Vassallo has spent two decades going to The Press Room, and authored the petition. “This is simply a money-grab by owner and developer, Jim Knell,� Mr. Vassallo told the News-Press. “All this development will do is displace and in all likelihood destroy a local business and family in the interest of offering luxury priced housing for the rich, all while close to one million square feet downtown continuing to remain vacant.� He said The Press Room is more than just a “bar,� citing the Rafferty’s, who own the establishment, as charitable community members who “provide much more than cold pints to thirsty patrons.� “Residents should also consider that after over 25 years of renting to the Rafferty’s, Knell didn’t even have the decency to inform them of the development which began over a year ago,� Mr. Vassallo said. “They only found out via a news snippet in the Santa Barbara News-Press and a letter from the City informing them of the project mere months ago. As I understand up to this point, Knell has still yet to reach out to the Rafferty’s regarding this project.� He concluded by calling for relocation or other displacement assistance for the Rafferty family, and asking Santa Barbara residents “if developers like this are what we need or even want in this town.�

Essential workers from Cottage Hospital receive free tours, Casa del Herrero’s way of saying thank you. They could tour the gardens in August along with the Casa’s members. “Having people come back is so important, even in a limited capacity. It’s nice to take that one step forward and be able to make that happen,� Ms. Tade said. Now, everyone ages 10 and up is welcome to visit. It costs $25 which helps support the house and garden’s maintenance. The Steedmans hired more than a dozen gardeners to maintain the landscape. Now, there’s two full-time gardeners and some volunteers. The Santa Barbara Gardening Club refreshed the herb garden and the Arizona garden, one of the most magnificent spaces on the property. Above the Arizona cacti, Dragon Trees tower above, creating an ever-expanding canopy. The trees are Ms. Tade’s favorite plant because they’re original to the landscape. They’re massive and provide a sense of mystery to the garden. Beyond just horticulture, the tour teaches history. Original touches, like the ironwork made by Mr. Steedman, give a hint of what the 1920s felt like for large Montecito estates. The details bring visitors through the property. “I like preserving a community landmark, and I feel very grateful to be a part of it,� Ms. Tade said. Casa del Herrero is located at 1387 East Valley Road in Montecito. For more information, go to www.casadelherrero.com.

Persons who contest the validity of the matter described below and in the complaint will not be subject to punitive action, such as wage garnishment or seizure of their real or personal property. DETAILED SUMMARY OF THE MATTER THAT PLAINTIFF SEEKS TO VALIDATE: The California Department of Water Resources (Department) operates facilities which store, transport and deliver water to urban and agricultural water agencies throughout the State. Since 1960, the Department has approved, planned and constructed a system of water storage and transportation and power generation facilities (the Project). Currently, Project water is conveyed across the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta through the natural channels of the Delta formed by the confluence of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers, as those channels have been modified over the past 150 years. In recent years, the Department has undertaken to develop a comprehensive plan for the effective delivery of Project water across the Delta. The Department is currently undertaking environmental review and related planning and design activities regarding potential new Delta conveyance facilities. The facilities under review would transport water from new intake points on the Sacramento River at the northern edge of the Delta through an underground tunnel running below the natural waterways of the Delta to export facilities at the southern edge of the Delta. Separately, the Department has established a proposed revenue bond financing to finance the cost and expense of the environmental review, planning, engineering and design, and if and when appropriate, the acquisition and construction of Delta water conveyance facilities. On August 6, 2020, the Department adopted bond resolutions authorizing the issuance of revenue bonds for those purposes. Under the bond resolutions, bonds for construction cannot be issued unless specific conditions precedent are satisfied, which include regulatory and statutory requirements regarding the physical and environmental aspects of approving, constructing, and operating Delta conveyance facilities. On August 6, 2020, the Department filed a validation action to confirm the legal validity of the Department’s proposed bond financing. A validation action is a judicial proceeding in which a governmental agency, like the Department, can confirm the validity of a proposed financial transaction before it commits to or undertakes the transaction. The Department’s validation complaint, the bond resolutions, and a copy of this Summons are available on the Department’s internet website at: https://water.ca.gov/Programs/StateWater-Project/Delta-Conveyance/Public-Information.

COLLEGE NOTEBOOK

Cleveland Indians promote ex-Gaucho Nelson Pitcher Kyle Nelson, Shane Bieber’s teammate during UCSB’s College World Series run of 2016, rejoined the Cy Young Award candidate in the big leagues on Wednesday. The Cleveland Indians selected the left-handed reliever’s contract from their alternate training site in Eastlake while having him exchange places with righthander Adam Cimber. “He has a pretty good arm and a good tempo,” Indians interim manager Sandy Alomar Jr. said. “We’ll see when the opportunity arises and see what he can do.” The Indians selected Nelson in the 15th round of the 2017 MLB Amateur Draft — a year after having taken Bieber in the fourth round. “What I really wanted to see this summer was Bieber handing the ball to Nelly in a big-league game,” said UCSB coach Andrew Checketts, noting that the two pitchers live and train together during the offseason. Bieber, 7-0, leads the Major Leagues this season in several pitching categories including earned run average (1.25) and strikeouts (94). Nelson, 24, pitched out of UCSB’s bullpen in 2015 and 2016, posting 12 saves with an ERA of 1.44. He earned All-Big West Conference First Team honors as a sophomore when he set a school record by allowing no earned runs over a stretch of 49 consecutive innings. Nelson went 6-4 as a starter for UCSB in 2017, recording a 4.51 ERA with a team-high 69 strikeouts. He has pitched almost entirely out of the bullpen during his three seasons in Cleveland’s farm system, posting a win-loss record of 13-7 with 17 saves and an ERA of 2.07 over 122 innings. Nelson received two promotions last year — from Single-A Lynchburg to Double-A Akron, and then to Triple-A Columbus — while recording nine saves, four wins and an ERA of 2.28. He also struck out 69 batters in 47 innings. Three former Gauchos are now pitching in the Major Leagues: Nelson, Bieber and Dillon Tate of the Baltimore Orioles. They were all teammates for one season in

Continued from Page A1 importance of getting an accurate count for this year’s Census since local communities receive federal funding based on their population size. According to a press release, undercounting Santa Barbara County’s population could cost the county $2,000 per person per year over the next 10 years, taking away possible funding for schools and infrastructure. Ms. Hernandez told the News-Press that this loss would amount to around $43 million in federal funding lost each year. Population recorded during the Census also determines congressional districts and how many seats California gets in Congress. Though the Census count was originally scheduled to end on Oct. 31, the Trump administration

Gaucho recruit gets four-star rating Ajay Mitchell, who announced his commitment to play basketball at UCSB beginning in 2021, has been assigned a four-star rating by 247 Sports. The national recruiting service listed Mitchell, a 6-foot-3 point guard from Belgium, at No. 113 in its top 150 list of collegiate recruits. “It is 247Sports policy to not rank international prospects until they commit to an American college,” 247’s Josh Gershon said. He said 247Sports evaluated him several times, most recently at the 2019 FIBA U18 European Championships in Oradea, Romania. Mitchell averaged 13.3 points and 3.1 assists for Belgium at that event. “Mitchell has good size and length, a physically immature frame with plenty of room to gain strength,” Gershon said. “He’s a three-level scorer with upside as a recently moved to have the deadline a month earlier, Sept. 30. On Tuesday, Gov. Gavin Newsom released his latest “On the Record with Governor Newsom” column encouraging all Californians to get counted for the Census before Sept. 30, and thereby help their communities get the funding and representation they need. “By taking the Census, you will help secure billions of dollars of funding for your community, tribal nation and state,” he wrote. He continued, “You will ensure you and your neighbors are represented in Sacramento and Washington D.C. Communities that have more people officially counted have greater representation in the legislature and the Congress, and they have more funding available to assist with the community needs based on this official count.” email: jgrega@newspress.com

Division 1 setter transfers to Westmont The Westmont women’s volleyball team, fresh off its best postseason run in program history, has added depth and experience to its roster with the addition of setter Malia Yim. As a freshman last season, Yim played in three matches and six sets at Division I school George Washington University before her season ended due to an injury. Yim was granted a medical redshirt by the NCAA, and has four years of athletic eligibility to play volleyball for Westmont. “Malia Yim was someone we had recruited when she was a junior in high school, but she took a different direction to play at George Washington University,” Westmont coach Ruth McGolpin said. “Malia, her family and I had always stayed in contact, and

when the opportunity opened up for her to come back to Westmont College to play volleyball, I welcomed her with open arms.” Yim is already academically involved at Westmont, having transferred to before the 2020 spring semester. “As much as I was drawn into the Christian education and location of Westmont, the quiet and peaceful environment along with the kind people were really what drew me to the school,” Yim said. Yim graduated from San Clemente High where she earned Most Valuable Player honors in volleyball as a freshman. As a senior, she was the team captain and led San Clemente to the Sea View League championship. She was also a First Team All-Sea View League selection. “I am most looking forward to being a part of the (Westmont) team,” she said. “These women are so positive and supportive, and I am really excited to be a part of this family.” Yim, who is undecided on her major, also participated with the Prime Volleyball Club. “As a student-athlete, I hope to push myself and excel both on and off the court,” she added. “There are so many amazing life lessons and long-term benefits of being a student-athlete, and to be able to continue to develop those aspects at Westmont really excites me.” As for her talent on the court, McGolpin is quite excited about that aspect of what Yim brings to Westmont. “Malia is very talented, a technical-based setter, and has good flow to her sets, which are consistent,” McGolpin added. “What she also brings is a kind heart, a level head and a passion for the game.” Yim is the sixth newcomer to the Warriors’ team, joining Jessie Terlizzi, Phoebe Minch, Jordan Cusator, Emma Galloway and Lilian Reininga. Westmont is scheduled to begin its conference season on Feb. 2 against William Jessup after the NAIA and Golden State Athletic Conference postponed fall sports championships to the spring because of COVID-19. — Gerry Fall

UCSB’s Michael picked as soccer All-American Rodney Michael’s selection to the College Soccer News’ Preseason All-America Third Team on Wednesday trumpets a banner year for UCSB, but a lot still must play out before the first whistle. “Obviously, if we have all of the players available to us, we will be a hard team to beat,” coach Tim Vom Steeg said. But the delay caused by COVID-19 is making that a big if. The NCAA has postponed the start of its fall soccer season, with one proposal listing a Feb. 3 start date. That puts NCAA soccer in direct conflict with professional soccer in the U.S., which resumes their seasons in late January and early February. “The NCAA will be making a decision on the specifics of a spring season within the next two weeks,” Vom Steeg said. Michael, a senior forward who already ranks 10th in UCSB’s record books with 61 career points (23 goals, 15 assists), is high on the draft lists of many Major League Soccer teams. The former Dunn School star from Sierra Leone made last year’s Top Drawer Soccer All-America Second Team after leading the Gauchos to the quarterfinal round of the NCAA Tournament. But the tenuous situation in college soccer could cost the Gauchos Michael as well as several other stars. They include sophomore forward Finn Ballard McBride, a ninegoal scorer last season; junior goalkeeper Ben Roach, whose 12 shutouts last year rank third all-time at UCSB; and even Vom Steeg’s own son Carson, a senior midfielder who is returning from knee surgery. “Rodney finished last year as

Joan Beddow passed peacefully into her everafter on September 8 , 2020. Born June 6, 1929 in Belturbet, Ireland, Joan was the eldest daughter in a traditional Irish Catholic family and lovingly took on the role as second mother to her six younger siblings. She was a guiding light for her family and immigrated to England as a teenager, bringing over her siblings to join her while completing her studies. Joan went on to enjoy her first career in medicine, as a nurse and Midwife. It was in England that Joan met the love of her life when she was just 23 years old at a dance, and that night set the stage for a nearly 70 year, made for the movies, love story. Keith was a Cambridge PhD man she was always proud to say, and he fell head over heels in love and that chance meeting changed the trajectory of their lives. She was so lovely that he at first could not believe she was real, and the life she created for him he described as paradise on earth. In 1969 they moved their young family to the United States and set out on the American Dream. Joan settled into her second career in property rentals in Iowa City, Iowa where she spent the next 30 years enjoying many friends, her growing family and the many students she met along the way. Joan was a female entrepreneur, ahead of her time, and made a formidable impression for her four daughters. She was always dedicated to her family, her health, her faith and her home. Spending every waking hour in constant motion to accomplish as much as she could, she rarely sat down. In 1999, Joan and Keith retired to Santa Barbara where they bought a home so they could stroll to the beach and spend their golden years. Joan was quickly embraced in town, making friends as she visited the shops and farmers markets, volunteering with The Santa Barbara Women’s Club and attending her exercise classes at the Carrillo Recreation Center. Together Joan and Keith spent many evenings attending the Symphony, the Opera and enjoyed all that the area had to offer, together. Always welcoming of friends and family to her home, she cherished those days when her grandchildren would fill her house. Preparing for weeks ahead to host them with lovely surprises during their visits. She enjoyed creating joy in others and was a fantastic grandmother to her seven grandchildren who would come in sandy from the beach to lovely meals, sweet treats and baths from grandma. She was dedicated to her marriage and cared for Keith up until her passing. Joan leaves behind her husband of nearly 70 years John Keith Beddow. Her four daughters Siobain Beddow and Francesca Beddow of Portland, Oregon, Katherine (Scott) Pritchett of Hollywood, Florida and Isabell (Eric Bloch) Beddow of Hillsborough, California. She also leaves behind her sisters Tina Egan, Phyllis Middleton and brother Kevin Smyth. Her 7 grandchildren Allison, Jonathan, Cameron, Bryce, Ryan, Grace and Owen. All of whom will dearly miss her. To share your loving thoughts of Joan with family and friends joan-beddow.forevermissed.com In lieu of flowers, we ask memorial donations in Joan’s name to Mission House Hospice and Food from the Heart. Our family wishes to extend our gratitude to both organizations for their support during Joan’s final days.

TREMBLAY, Dorothy Ellen Fitzgerald

Dorothy Ellen Fitzgerald Tremblay passed away in her sleep on August 28, 2020. She had a tremendous impact on so many over her treasured lifetime. Dorothy was born on November 24, 1926 on a farm in Wisconsin. Her mother and father passed away while she was a child. Her stepmother, Isabelle Fitzgerald, brought her to Spokane, Washington in 1946. It was there that she met the love of her life, Max Tremblay, at Gonzaga University. They married and had five children in Spokane. In 1958, she and her husband brought their 5 kids to Hollywood, CA for a business opportunity with the House of Hollywood Cosmetics Company. When this business venture didn’t work out, Max told Dorothy, “if we have to start over, let’s do it in the most beautiful city in the world, Santa Barbara!” In 1964, Max and Dorothy moved to Santa Barbara with their family and Dorothy got a job as a secretary at the Los Padres National Forest Service. She moved up the ranks quickly and became the first woman to achieve the position of “Personnel Officer” for Los Padres National Forest. After retiring from the Forest Service at the age of 65, she came to work in the financial services arena for her son, Tim. She did an outstanding job there for 26 years! Her wisdom, intelligence, kindness and great sense of humor were a job to all. Dorothy’s greatest treasures are her faith and family. She was a lector at Sunday Mass for Our Lady of Sorrows church for over 20 years. Her husband, Max, passed away in 2001. She is survived by her five children: daughter Mary Catherine Swaneagle, son John Tremblay, son Tim Tremblay and his wife Marcia, daughter Moira Barbara Ruiz and her husband Mark, and daughter Margaret Mead and her husband Floyd.

one of the best forwards in the country… Going into this year he could be the very best by the time the year is over,” coach Vom Steeg said. “Finn returns as the conference freshman of the year ... Between him and Rodney, we could score a lot of goals. “Carson is fully recovered and we just have to hope that he can stay injury-free. He would be the best defender in the conference. Ben would return as the best goalie in the conference. But they will have to make decisions about their future plans with the fall being moved to spring.” A proposal to keep the MLS Draft in January but delay the entry of collegiate draftees could help mitigate the problem. “So instead of having a player be the 28th player on the roster, they can go get games in college,” Vom Steeg said. The return of Carson Vom Steeg and sophomore defender Lucas Gonzalez will also help UCSB compensate for the graduation of last year’s 11 seniors. Senior midfielder Kaya Fabretti and senior defender Will Gillingham return as starters, and senior forward Derek Kryzda and junior midfielder Sam Fletcher had made last year’s starting lineup by UCSB’s playoff run. The COVID-19 delay could also provide the silver lining of additional training for international recruits who will start arriving at UCSB on Oct. 1. They include freshman Fabian Bostrum from Denmark and junior Thaabit Baartman, a transfer from Texas’ Tyler Junior College. “Both of these players will add to an already good returning group of attacking players of Rodney, Finn, Ameyawu Muntari and Carter Clemmensen,” Vom Steeg said.
