Planning panel considers ExxonMobil trucking plan By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
The ExxonMobil trucking proposal that spurred last week’s protest in Santa Barbara went before the county’s Planning Commission on Wednesday, where dozens of public commenters voiced opposition to the project because of environmental and safety concerns. Commissioners engaged in an all-day meeting, where they heard from Exxon officials, representatives from the county’s Planning and Development Department and about 60 public commenters regarding Exxon’s proposal to begin trucking oil out of its Los Flores Canyon facility.

Mail-in ballots to stay in California
NEWS-PRESS FILE PHOTO
Gov. Gavin Newsom signed voting legislation this week.
By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
Mail-in ballots will become a mainstay of California’s election process now that Gov. Gavin Newsom has signed Assembly Bill 37. The bill requires a mailin ballot be mailed to each registered voter. AB-37, which became law Tuesday, was part of a stack of bills signed by the governor aimed at amending voting laws. “Last year we took unprecedented steps to ensure all voters had the opportunity to cast a ballot during the pandemic and today we are making those measures permanent after recordbreaking participation in the 2020 presidential election,” Gov. Newsom said in a news release. Secretary of State Dr. Shirley Weber said mail-in ballots have “significantly increased participation of eligible voters.” “Voters like having options for returning their ballot whether by mail, at a secure drop box, a voting center or at a traditional polling station. And the more people who participate in elections, the stronger our democracy and the more we have assurance that elections reflect the will of the people of California,” she said. Wednesday, the governor targeted homeless legislation in another round of signatures. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com
Commission is tasked with providing a recommendation to the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors about whether to approve or deny the project. The Supervisors will issue the official decision. After deliberating at length on Wednesday, commissioners directed Planning and Development staff to return at a later date with drafted findings that support the commission’s recommended denial of the project before the proposal is heard by the Board of Supervisors. Staff is expected to return to the Planning Commission on Nov. 3 with additional findings to support the project denial. The brunt of Wednesday’s hearing centered on the

to “adverse but not significant.” In a Supplemental Environmental Impact Review (SEIR) released last month, the county found that one Class 1 unavoidable impact of the project would be oil spills or truck fires associated with the transportation of hazardous materials, which officials say could impact “biological, water and cultural resources at Los Flores Canyon and along the trucking routes.” The SEIR also identified air quality and greenhouse gas emission impacts as “significant and mitigatable” impacts of the project. In response to the environmental concerns, the county proposed a modified version of the project on
Wednesday that would limit trucking to the Santa Maria Pump Station. The modified plan would also prohibit trucking during rainy periods and would allow daily trucking to increase to from 70 trucks to 78 trucks per day to “catch up” from rainy days off. And the modified project includes provisions for the closure of the SMPS. If this were to occur, the county would allow Exxon to redirect oil trucking to the Pentland Terminal via State Route 166 with a daily maximum of 68 trucks per day. If this modified project is approved, officials from the Planning and Development Department estimate that the risk of an accident would be reduced by 33%.

ExxonMobil officials also weighed in on the environmental impacts of the project during Wednesday’s meeting, telling commissioners that the company plans to submit a Greenhouse Gas Reduction Plan that would detail how the company plans to limit emissions from the project. Officials also claimed that bringing Exxon’s crude oil back to California is an environmentally friendly choice because it would reduce the amount of oil shipped into the state from foreign sources. According to the California Energy Commission, the state received 47.5% of its oil from foreign sources in 2020, and 58.4% from foreign sources in 2019.

environmental and safety impacts of ExxonMobil’s proposal to truck oil from its Los Flores Canyon facility to the Santa Maria Pump Station via Highway 101 and to the Pentland Terminal in Kern County via State Route 166. The project proposes sending 70 trucks per day to the SMPS and 68 trucks per day to the Pentland Terminal. Exxon has also proposed a phased restart of three offshore drilling platforms in its Santa Ynez Unit, which have not been operational since the Plains All American Pipeline oil spill in 2015. During Wednesday’s hearing, the Planning and Development Department discussed several environmental impacts of the project, which range in severity from “significant and unavoidable”
Santa Barbara mayoral candidate Deborah Schwartz announced a plan Wednesday she believes would help the city address its vulnerabilities. Ms. Schwartz, who’s also the Santa Barbara Planning Commission chair, sat down with the News-Press to explain her new “Santa Barbara S.A.F.E.” plan. She describes Santa Barbara as “an island of a city confined to the ocean and the mountains with one major corridor in and out.” She believes strategic planning (the “S” in S.A.F.E.) is the key to safeguarding the American Riviera. “Our entire way of planning needs to be integrated. It’s not just housing; it’s not just the environment; it’s not just transportation,” she told the News-Press Wednesday. Please see SCHWARTZ on A4

TRAFFIC, CRIME & FIRE BLOTTER Bank customers report $50,000 fraud SANTA BARBARA — The Santa Barbara Police Department has received reports of fraudulent withdrawals from Bank of America customers, totaling $50,000 to date. SBPD detectives have discovered ATM “skimmer” devices on Bank of America ATMs throughout Santa Barbara. They believe the suspects are targeting customers with California Employment Development Department debit cards. The cards, managed exclusively by Bank of America, do not generally contain an EMV security chip. Other communities along California’s coast have reported similar thefts. SBPD confirmed nearly a dozen cases in a news release last month and has continued to receive reports as recently as last week. The department warns the community to be vigilant, as the skimming devices are often concealed. SBPD recommends customers perform transactions with a bank teller and warns against using ATMs that appear altered or damaged. To avoid a stolen PIN, customers can conceal the pad while they enter their number. Officers also suggest transferring funds to an account protected by an EMV security chip. Anyone with information is encouraged to file a report online at santabarbaraca.gov/gov/ depts/police.

operate under “less stringent” environmental restrictions than California producers, Exxon officials said Wednesday, arguing that sourcing locally is the better option for the environment. “Bringing our crude back to California makes sense from an environmental standpoint,” Patrice Surmeier, the regulatory lead with Exxon’s Santa Ynez Valley Unit, said Wednesday. “We will be displacing imported crude with high air carbon intensity that might also have been produced at a less stringent environmental and safety regulatory oversight. Every barrel of oil we bring into the market allows refineries to produce fuels from a source that is consistent with our community’s environmental values.” Exxon officials also urged commissioners to consider the revenue and jobs the trucking will bring to the area. Prior to the Plains All American pipeline shutdown, Exxon paid more than $45 million in taxes to the county, according to Bryan Anderson, the asset manager for ExxonMobil’s Santa Ynez Unit. He told commissioners Wednesday that approving this proposal could contribute $4 million in funding for schools and $2 million to public safety, while also creating new jobs in the region. Despite safety assurances and promises to enact environmental protections from both the county and Exxon, the vast majority of public commenters on Wednesday voiced opposition to the project, citing concerns about the environmental impacts and safety concerns. Numerous public commenters expressed concerns about trucks traveling through North County on State Route 166, telling commissioners that the route is already heavily trafficked and additional trucks would be a danger to motorists and residents. “I personally feel that it’s not the trucks and the drivers that are the danger. It’s just the increase of traffic on the road going right past our schools and our facilities in Cuyama within 250 feet of multiple businesses, churches, both elementary and high school, and the safety is the main issue,” Jan Smith, a Cuyama Joint Unified School District board member, said Wednesday. “I’ve driven the 166 three times a week in this past year, and the problem is that the highway just doesn’t have the capacity to hold this type of traffic.”

The Planning Commission considered ExxonMobil’s proposal to begin trucking oil out of its Los Flores Canyon facility along the Central Coast on Wednesday. This proposal sparked a protest in Santa Barbara last Friday (above) that was spearheaded by environmental activists.
Tom Francis, the public lands advocate at Los Padres Forest Watch, voiced similar concerns during his public comment, explaining that State Route 166 is a windy mountainous road that passes through about eight miles of the Los Padres National Forest boundary. He said that approving this project would pose a danger to hikers looking to access trailheads off the highway. “It is irresponsible and dangerous to approve a plan that would add an additional 68 trucks per day to travel this remote and windy route hauling tanks loaded with hazardous materials, posing safety risks to recreationists trying to access these trailheads,” Mr. Francis said. Other public commenters expressed opposition to the project over environmental concerns associated with the increased risk of an oil spill and greater amounts of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. “The proposed trucking of oil and any forward movement to foster our dependency on fossil fuels is unthinkable and irresponsible given the sciencebased need for change for more sustainable and healthy safe alternatives,” Buellton resident Nicole Martel said Wednesday. “We have those technologies in place and ready to transition away from fossil fuels, so why would we continue to support these antiquated and dangerous industries?” “Approving this project is (moving the county) backward when it’s clearly time we need to move forward in service to the
care, integrity and accountability needed to deal with the challenge California’s already facing,” she added. While most public commenters opposed the project, a few residents voiced support for it, telling the board it would spearhead economic recovery in the region. One of the supporters was Glenn Morris, the president and CEO of the Santa Maria Valley Chamber of Commerce, who said approving the project would boost the economy and be an “important step toward COVID-19 recovery.” “This project balances economics and jobs with safety, and will, if adopted, be subject in fact to the highest safety standards including regulations directly related to the trucks on the road,” Mr. Morris said. “While we can all envision a future where oil is significantly reduced in many aspects of our lives, the reality is that that day is not today. The choice today is not oil or no oil, but rather where we source that oil and whether we benefit and have influence over how it is produced.” After the Planning Commission returns in November with additional findings to support the recommended denial of the project, the proposal will head to the Board of Supervisors for a final stamp of denial or approval. The Planning Commission was originally set to return for the second day of hearings on Friday but canceled that meeting after directing staff to return with additional findings at a later date.

Santa Barbara beats Dos Pueblos in volleyball
By DAVE MASON
NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR
The Santa Barbara girls volleyball team defeated the visiting Dos Pueblos squad Tuesday. Scores were 25-21, 13-25, 23-25 and 16-14. Coach Kristin Hempy credited “the vocal support from our bench, huge blocking effort and some incredible digging supporting us in the victory. “Overall it was a great night of talented volleyball,” Hempy told the News-Press in an email. “SB mixed up our defense and worked on specific blocking patterns after our last game against DP, which proved successful. “Our spark was lit by Campbell Brown in the middle and her superb blocking effort,” the coach said. “She had 8 blocks and 5 kills and was key to limiting DP’s powerful arm swings. “DP has a lot of talented hitters, but SB libero Caroline Koceman was able to dig most of what was dished out at her, leading our defense with 33 digs,” Hempy continued. “Outside Shae Delany came through big with a huge 21 kills. Outside Emma Zuffelato had 14 kills and 12 digs,” the coach said. “Both our outsides mixed up their patterns and found the weak spots in DP’s defense.” The Dons are now 12-4 overall and 4-2 league. They’ll take on San Marcos today. Dos Pueblos coach Megan O’Carroll conceded that Tuesday’s match was a rough one for the Chargers. “We were struggling a little bit with injuries and being run down, and that showed tonight,” O’Carroll said Tuesday in an email to the News-Press. “Gotta hand it to Santa Barbara, who came out firing and served super tough. “We had some really great moments of defensive effort, but couldn’t sustain any consistency over the five sets,” the coach said. “We talked about not letting this
loss define our season and instead use it as motivation to finish the rest of league on a super high note,” O’Carroll said. The Chargers’ Makeila Cervantes made 5 kills, 5 digs and 2 aces. Here are stats for other Dos Pueblos athletes. Chloe Hoffman had 24 kills, 2 aces and 3 blocks. Portia Sherman had 17 kills and 2 aces. Natali Flint made 47 assists and two blocks. Lily Mires made 4 kills and 4 blocks. The Chargers are now 5-1 for the league and 25-5 overall. CARPINTERIA DEFEATS FILLMORE The Carpinteria girls tennis team defeated Fillmore 15-3 Tuesday in a Citrus Coast League match. “I was really happy with how we played,” Coach Charles Bryants told the News-Press in an email. “We were sharp in both singles and doubles while being patient yet aggressive. “I was impressed with Fillmore as well.They are a much improved team from a few years ago, and there is a lot of potential to shock a few teams down the road.” In singles, Silke Leonard led Carpinteria with a 3-0 sweep. “She has played so well lately and has enjoyed being the one dictating play,” Bryants said. “She is able to really get her opponent off the court now and open up a few more opportunities with that strategy. “Ariana Lounsbury went 2-1 and was an absolute plugger and fighter out there on the courts,” the coach said. “She is relentless and never gives up on a ball. She is an inspiration to her teammates with her no-quit attitude. “I was really proud of her today!” Bryants said Tuesday. “Neida Garcia went 1-0 before being subbed out. She too looked good out there and has shown a lot of improvement,” the coach said.
“In doubles, Valerie Ojeda/ Cassandra Maya Prado went 3-0 on the day and did not drop a game,” Bryants said. “Zahra Porinsh went 2-0 with sister Sasha and 1-0 with Abbie Delwiche. It was fun to see the sisters play together. They were each other’s biggest supporters.” Natalia Perez went 2-0 with Nansy Velasquez and 1-0 with Natalie Martinez. Bryants said the team’s good practice on Monday extended into Tuesday’s successful match. He and his team are hoping to keep up the pace for today’s match against Malibu. Carpinteria is now 7-4 overall and 3-0 in the league.

“Our mayor and council have not attended to or taken an integrated, holistic approach to planning. It’s been piecemeal.” Ms. Schwartz has served the Planning Commission for nearly 12 years and held the role of chair for three nonconsecutive years. She said her experience has given her the skills needed for the role of mayor — a skillset she doesn’t see in her fellow candidates. She believes anyone who has served on the Santa Barbara City Council in the past 10 years holds responsibility for some shortcomings, alluding to Mayor Cathy Murillo and former councilmember Randy Rowse. She said Santa Barbara is in a crisis regarding housing, homelessness and economic stability. “We didn’t just arrive at these crises that I mentioned in the last two years. It’s been building by the way in which the city’s conducted itself administratively from an elected leadership perspective, and so I don’t believe the city can move forward decisively and effectively with either of the two incumbents,” Ms. Schwartz said. “I would be hard pressed to tell you that I could be supportive of a victory for any of the others, and I know them to varying degrees.” She recognizes a love for the Santa Barbara community in each candidate, but she’s unsure if everyone is ready to serve the City. During her time in politics, she’s seen candidates run for election for personal gain, she said. She plans to continue serving the city even if another candidate is elected mayor. Ms. Schwartz was excited to share her S.A.F.E. plan, as she believes her competitors and City Council candidates would agree with her ideas. The “A” represents her desire for accessible infrastructure. She worries Highway 101 puts residents at risk during disasters. She also hopes to bring more workforce housing to the city. She watches essential workers commute from North and South. She said public-private partnerships are a “golden opportunity” to create housing for first responders. She would like to see developers and the Housing Authority team up on projects. Ideally, she said, a company would buy land and build — paying property taxes to the city — and portion out units for the Housing Authority to manage. The Housing Authority can bring government subsidies to the development as a partner. “Our city has to step into a leadership role; the market isn’t going to naturally do this on its own. They’re naturally going the nonprofit or for-profit way, but we have to be the convener,” she said. “We have to be proactive, bringing together these two sectors.” Ms. Schwartz said flexibility, another quarter of her “S.A.F.E.” acronym, is also necessary. She would like to introduce new approaches to governance, including more community engagement. “We still only hear from, in essence, a very small number of community members. So I think that it’s our responsibility to figure out how to reach out to be more inviting,” she said. Finishing “S.A.F.E.,” her plan recognizes the environment’s role in the City. Environmental factors, after all, are what introduced her family to politics. Her parents moved her to Santa Barbara a few years prior to the 1969 oil spill. The impact of the spill prompted her mom, Naomi Schwartz, to make the transition from PTA president to campaign volunteer. Her mom eventually became the 1st District Santa Barbara County supervisor. U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, worked as her chief of staff, and councilmember Eric Friedman was a legislative aide. Her introduction to Santa Barbara government was early in her life, but she didn’t begin public service until 2005. Now, in her final year as a planning commissioner, she believes she is ready for more authority. She has received an endorsement from Democratic Women of Santa Barbara County. The mayoral and city council election is Nov. 2.
Joan was very artistic and created many beautiful watercolor paintings, stitchery, and jewelry designs. She could sew and mend anything. She enjoyed collecting antiques, angels, and loved all sorts of pretty things. Her Catholic faith was a foundation of her life, and she especially enjoyed volunteering as a Eucharistic Minister, both at Mass and to patients at the local Rehabilitation Hospital. Over the years she also volunteered as a Girl Scout leader, a hospital “pink lady,” and in the religious education office at church. She had a delightfully expressive personality, and was known for her dramatic gestures, whoops, giggles, and laughter. She was the glue of the family, wrote great letters and always kept track of who was doing what. She loved coffee and chocolate and spending quality time with her family and friends. She was preceded in death by her husband Ken, as well as all her siblings and in-laws; she was the last of her generation. She is survived by her daughters, Mary (Arthur) Pollasky, Judith (Archie) Steel, Jeanne (Ron) Runolfson, and Laura (William) Kearns, 16 grandchildren, 14 great-grandchildren, and a very large extended family. Visitation will be on Thursday, September 30th from 5:00 to 7:00 pm at MoodyConnolly Funeral Home, 181 South Caldwell Street, Brevard, NC 28712, followed by Funeral Mass on Friday, October 1st at 10:00 am at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, 150 Brian Berg Lane, Brevard, NC, 28712. There will be a Memorial later this year in Santa Barbara, CA, where her ashes will be interred at Calvary Cemetery. Those wishing to donate in her honor may consider a favorite charity of hers, Heifer International. KENNETH SONG/NEWS-PRESS PHOTOS

‘Beauty and Sorrow’ ‘B
By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER
eauty and Sorrow,” a CD by singersongwriter Susan Marie Reeves, and the 20th anniversary of 9/11, were the inspirations for a very special invitational juried art show on view through Oct. 25 at the Palm Loft Gallery in Carpinteria, according to owner Arturo Tello. All mediums and styles of art were eligible for submission, and any size was acceptable. But each piece had to incorporate the theme of “Beauty and Sorrow” or any of the CD’s song titles: “Beauty and Sorrow,” “My Love Awaits,” “Tequila,” “Falling,” “Gone to Hawaii,” “Home on the Hill,” “Waiting,” “If I Could Dream Again,” “Today Is Our Day,” “Great Blue Sky” and “Sea of Love.” “Once a year at this time, I host this show with the theme ‘Make Hay While the Sun Shines,’ but this year, it opened on Sept. 11, the 20th anniversary of 9/11, which is why I thought the theme of beauty and sorrow was more appropriate,” said Mr. Tello, a well-known local artist and co-founder of the Oak Group of artists. “I have a theory that with all the violence and inhumanity in today’s
Milestone anniversary of 9/11 and CD themes for art show
world, there is also all this beauty left to us.” He also has a theory that many painters are frustrated songwriters like himself. “I began songwriting when I was 50. I took an adult ed class with Nicola Gordon, who introduced me to Susan Reeves,” Mr. Tello, 66, told the News-Press. “Susan began playing her guitar at the gallery, and we decided that songwriters needed to share their songs. There needed to be a community of songwriters.” In 2010, he began to host “Song Circles” at 7 p.m. Thursdays at the gallery. “During the pandemic, we continued on Zoom. We have never failed to meet,” he said. At the opening reception, Ms. Reeves performed the songs of “Beauty and Sorrow” on her guitar and ukulele along with Dennis Russell, Laura Hemenway, Lisa Macker, Carletta Erb, Mary J. Madden and Dan Phillips. A painting of Ms. Reeves playing guitar was done by Mary-Gail Green King. Besides Mr. Tello and Ms. Reeves, other artists in the show are Oleg Bondarenko, Baret Boisson, Molly Burns, Chris Chapman, Ms. Gordon, Ms. Hemenway, John Iwerks, Ms. Please see BEAUTY on B2

Acorn squash This variety of winter squash can now be found from several local farmers at the weekly Saturday Santa Barbara, Sunday Camino Real, Tuesday Santa Barbara, Wednesday Solvang and Thursday Carpinteria farmers’ markets. With an acorn-like shape, they are recognized by their green peel that develops splashes of orange and yellow as they mature. The flesh inside is yellow to pale orange and delivers a mildly sweet and nutty flavor when cooked. Acorn squash is an excellent source of dietary fiber and contains vitamin C and B6, magnesium, manganese and potassium. My favorite way to prepare acorn squash is to roast it in the oven and then stuff it. This week I prepared a roasted acorn squash with sausage and honey crisp apple, the Fix of the Week, below. Price averages $1.50 per pound. Certified organic is available.

Pink lemons These are probably the most stunning lemons you will encounter throughout the season, recognized by their alternating green and yellow striped pattern across the skin. Once sliced open, a pink flesh is exposed. They make for a nice garnish on the plate, perfect for splashing over your favorite seafood preparations. Their flavor is very comparable to a standard lemon although slightly sweeter. You can incorporate pink lemons into cocktails or use the juice to make a salad dressing. These lemons are currently grown, harvested and sold from Vista del Mundo Farm of Goleta and the Saturday Santa Barbara farmers market weekly. Price averages $1 each.

lowly trickling in over the past few weeks, the winter squash season is officially under way with dozens of varieties being harvested from our local farms. You can find everything from the most popular butternut and spaghetti squashes to the delicious delicata and sweet dumpling squashes. This hearty fall and winter staple is a great option as we head into the cooler time of year. I find myself preparing at least one type of winter squash per week, whether to roast and serve as a side dish, make a creamy soup, a squash-infused risotto or pasta dish, or a nice mash. One of the first winter squashes to emerge each year is the acorn squash. Much smaller than most of its counterparts, the acorn squash is perfect for making a meal for one or two servings. While the acorn squash tends to be less sweet than many of the other varieties, it’s quite flavorful, with a pleasing underlying nutty presence. When roasted, its natural sweetness is enhanced. Some choose to peel this variety before cooking, but most people slice them in half, remove the seeds and roast skin side down in the oven. Due to their physique, acorn squashes are excellent when roasted and stuffed. Sometimes I will choose a heartier filling such as sautéed ground beef, onions and peppers tossed with rice, and other times a sweeter version with diced apples, walnuts, and chopped mint. Whatever your filling of choice may be, it’s best to roast the squash first until tender. Then add the filling before finishing in the oven.

SUDOKU
Horoscope.com Thursday, September 30, 2021 ARIES — Family values that you’ve embraced could be challenged today. You might consider some friends to be your true family, or think that an unconventional household works better for you than a traditional one. So what if you prefer a commune to a nuclear family? Don’t let the concerns of relatives cause you to hold back. TAURUS — Some books that you find fascinating are changing your life in subtle ways. They may involve new lifestyles or ancient mysteries coming to light or new scientific discoveries. This isn’t likely to be just a passing interest. What you’re learning could well become part of your being. You’ll want to read everything pertaining to the subject. GEMINI — Usually you trust your instincts about money, but today you should believe even more strongly in your financial sense. Unconventional ideas for increasing your income might come up. While your instincts might say go for it, your logic could tell you no. Help yourself by consulting professionals who know what’s happening. If they agree with your instincts, go for it! CANCER — A friend or group could be transforming not only your personality but also your life. The changes could be taking place at a very deep level, so you might not be aware of them. You could be surprised, but don’t be upset. Everyone changes. For you, this transmutation will prove positive. You may not have planned it, but it’s happening. LEO — Have you been thinking about changing jobs or taking up a new profession? If you have, now’s the time to lay the groundwork. If you haven’t considered it, a new opportunity may take you by surprise. You may go from a behind-the-scenes career like banking to a very public profession like acting. Don’t hesitate because of insecurity. If you like what’s happening, go for it. VIRGO — A radical transformation of your daily routine is definitely in the wind. You may decide to get an advanced degree or move to a foreign country or become more involved with a group. Even for someone as adventurous as you, this particular change might seem outrageous. Don’t worry about it. Follow your heart. Such opportunities often arise only
once in a lifetime! LIBRA — Your values might be under attack. Perhaps someone connected with your job is doing things that seem unethical and you don’t want to be associated with him or her. Whatever the situation, dealing with it may be too difficult. You might even consider leaving your field. Think carefully first! Whatever you decide, you’ll want to be sure that it’s right for you. SCORPIO — Expect to channel a lot of energy into partnerships today. Whether the partnership is new or long term, business or personal, it requires extra effort to maintain now. Perhaps you and your partner need to communicate more. Share your concerns or brainstorm some plans for the future that are a bit different from what you usually do. Make the effort. SAGITTARIUS — Delving into the more obscure areas of your work could be your focus today. This could involve some in-depth research, exploring possibilities for new enterprises, or something as mundane as cleaning out files. Intense conversations concerning these matters could take place. Don’t be surprised at anything you turn up. Strange objects or information are definitely in the wind. CAPRICORN — Are you currently involved in a creative enterprise with a partner? If so, expect a burst of energy to be directed to completing that project. You might make more progress today than you have in several weeks, though you may be surprised at the direction the enterprise takes. In the evening, schedule a date with a love partner. You’ll have a lot to report! AQUARIUS — Some work on your house’s infrastructure might be needed today. The plumbing or electricity might be giving you problems, but you’ll be glad when the repairs are done. Your house will probably run more efficiently. For this reason, it’s best not to try to make the repairs yourself. Even if you’re somewhat skilled in this area, call a professional. PISCES — Creative writing or speaking projects might take up a lot of your time today. You could channel not only your mind but also your very being into your work. You’ll probably be so caught up in what you’re doing that you have difficulty returning to the real world when you’re done. Never mind. You’ll probably be pleased with the results.

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.

Santa Maria Brewing Co. helps veterans, fallen first responders’ families By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR
Santa Maria Brewing Co. is launching an ale Friday to raise money to help injured veterans, the families of fallen first responders and Gold Star families across the U.S. Half of the profits of the sale of every Tunnel To Towers Bravest Golden Ale will go to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation and its mission of building mortgage-free “smart” homes for injured veterans and pay off mortgages on the homes of fallen first responders and Gold Star families. The Bravest Golden Ale will debut during a launch party Friday at Santa Maria Brewing Co.’s taprooms in Nipomo and Atascadero. Byron Moles, the company’s CEO and owner, will be there. “Seeing what the Tunnel to Towers Foundation has done over the years, for first responders and veterans, I was drawn to reach out and ask them if we could help them in a bigger way,” Mr. Moles said. “I wanted to provide our employees with an opportunity to give back to the men and women who keep us safe and ensure we have the freedom to do what we love. This is the most humbling and honored partnership I have ever been able to participate in.” Mr. Moles said there’s additional significance because this year marked the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. “Even 20 years after the attack, I feel like it was yesterday. Seeing all of the first responders running to and up the towers to save lives with no regard for their own is everything American heroes are! We have all said, ‘Never forget.’ This is an opportunity to remind people what happened 20 years ago and do some good in the process.” In addition to being on draft at Santa Maria Brewing Co.’s tap

rooms, the Bravest Golden Ale will be sold in cans wherever Santa Maria Brewing Co. beers are sold. The ale is brewed with Huell Melon and Cascade hops. And the ale is being produced on the East Coast by Staten Islandbased Flagship Brewing Co. “This is the first time Tunnel to Towers has partnered with a brewery in our 20-year history,” Frank Siller, the foundation’s
chairman and CEO, said. “We are excited to have this first-of-itskind brew debut on both sides of the country in honor of our 20th anniversary.” For more information, go to santamariabrewing.co. (It is indeed a “co,” not a “com.”) For more about the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, go to t2t.org.
