Local tuxedo kitty announces run for mayor of Carpinteria By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Juno the Klepto Kat recently announced her “catpaign” for honorary mayor of Carpinteria, and working to clean up the city is her top priority. The 5-year-old tuxedo kitty, born on Cinco de Mayo, was a rescue from Los Angeles, and her owner, Connie Geston, said she noticed Juno’s restlessness from the minute she adopted her. Starting last year, random items began appearing in Ms. Geston’s yard in Carpinteria, and she thought the neighbor kids were just throwing things on it. Little did she know, her rescue was a klepto-cat. To date, the cat has collected more than 550 items and consistently brought them to her owners for recognition. Worthy items of Juno’s collection include socks, a scrap of astro turf, gardening gloves, cleaning rags, a multicolored stuffed llama, balls, toys, succulents and many more. “The month of September was her biggest month,” Ms. Geston told the News-Press. “She brought home, I think, 98 things.” While Juno’s owner returns the majority of the items to the neighbors her cat stole from, she keeps a display rack of the items no one wants anymore. Ms. Geston even started a Juno Succulent Garden. “When she brings things home, she meows really loud to let you know she’s bringing you something,” Ms. Geston said. “We call it the drag, drop and flop. She drags it home, she drops it, and she flops right in front of it, very proudly.” Juno is already an honorary ambassador for Carpinteria Beautiful, whose mission is to promote, preserve and enhance the natural beauty of the city. The cat volunteers once a week and takes to the streets of Carpinteria in a fluorescent vest to pick up litter in the community.

Carpinteria Unified plans for hybrid By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Carpinteria Unified school board voted Tuesday evening to delay reopening secondary schools under a hybrid schedule until Jan. 7, the first day of second semester. The board voted 4-1 in favor of waiting until January to open middle and high schools. Elementary students returned Tuesday for hybrid learning, which superintendent Diana Rigby said went smoothly. “Even our TK students had masks on today,” she said. Students are divided into cohorts and meet either Monday and Tuesday or Thursday and Friday on campus. About five to 14 students are in each cohort. A total of 42 elementary students opted for independent study, meaning they teach themselves at home instead of joining a cohort.

The National Transportation Safety Board released its aviation accident preliminary report Tuesday on the Sept. 27 fatal crash that occurred off the coast of Campus Point in Isla Vista. The pilot, later identified as 61-year-old Deborah Nicholson, from the Lake Tahoe area, was the sole occupant and was fatally injured in the crash. The flight departed the Santa Barbara Municipal Airport just after 7 a.m. Sept. 27 for a cross-country flight to the Truckee-Tahoe Airport in Truckee, according to the report. According to the Federal Aviation Administration, the Cessna T182T airplane departed the runway and established radio contact with Los Angeles Center departure control and turned a heading of 255 degrees with a climb to 8,000 feet above ground level. The airplane then turned to the north, followed by a turn to the east and a “rapid descent,” according to the report. “Radio and radar contact were lost, and an alert notification was

issued by the FAA. Wreckage and an oil slick were located approximately 2 miles from SBA in the Pacific Ocean by the Santa Barbara Sheriff’s Department. There were no mayday calls received by ATC from the pilot,” read the report. The reported weather at the time of the crash was overcast skies at 900 feet and a visibility of seven miles, authorities said. The Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department requested assistance from Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department dive units to assist in the search for the pilot and airplane. The pilot and airplane were located Oct. 1 and the estimated depth of the wreckage was 200 feet, authorities said. The report did not disclose the cause of the crash. The Sheriff’s Coroner’s Bureau investigation is expected to be finalized in the next several weeks. In the preliminary report, the NTSB noted that information is subject to change and any errors would be corrected when a final report is completed, which is typically released 12 to 18 months after the incident. email: mwhite@newspress.com

Christie Cooney, a parent in the district, commented on independent study. She said it was way worse than the previous distance-learning model. “What I ask is that we find a way to employ a teacher to continue distance learning,” she said. “To turn them over to an independent study program with no instruction from a teacher is not an adequate form of distance learning, and I think we can do better.” The board voted to purchase Calvert, a digital learning tool that will assist students learning independently. Learning Loss Mitigation funds will cover the $19,500 expense.

Whistle Stop Organic Copenhagen gold garlic This is one of my absolute favorite garlic varieties to work with in the kitchen. Grown and sold by Mount Olive Organic Farm of Paso Robles, it is recognized by its large size and stunning purple blush across the white papery outer layers. Possessing large, aromatic, flavorful cloves, this garlic is excellent for use in salad dressings, pasta dishes, roasted or grilled meats, marinades, stir-fry, as well as sauces and salsas. This week, I topped the garlic head, drizzled with olive oil and seasoned, then roasted whole in the oven. Once soft, it is ideal for adding to homemade hummus, baba ganoush or on a crostini, as in this week’s Fix on A4. Certified organic, Copenhagen Gold garlic can currently be found at the Saturday Santa Barbara farmers’ market while supplies last. Price is $20 per pound.

Sweet Italian chicken sausages I’ve prepared these for dinner twice for my family over the past couple of weeks. This first time, I grilled them until cooked through with nice grill marks present, then cut into rounds and served with toothpicks and an assortment of dipping sauces. The 1.25-pound platter disappeared in about 5 minutes. The second time I simmered them in a homemade tomato sauce low and slow for about 4 hours, and served them with farmers market purchased fresh pasta. Again, no leftovers. The sausages are available at the Saturday Santa Barbara, Sunday Camino Real, Tuesday Santa Barbara and Thursday Carpinteria farmers’ markets weekly from Casitas Valley Pastures. This product is produced from truly pastureraised chickens.

Montecito author Fannie Flagg revisits ‘Fried Green Tomatoes’ characters By DAVE MASON NEWS-PRESS MANAGING EDITOR

F

annie Flagg laughed when she talked about how she got on “The New Dick Van Dyke Show” (1971-74 on CBS). “I happened to be in New York City at my agent’s office,” the Montecito author and actress told the News-Press. “The producers, Carl Reiner and Sheldon Leonard, were walking down the hall. They kept looking at me. They said, ‘Can you come into the office?’ I said, ‘OK.’ “They said, ‘You know, we’re looking for someone to play Dick Van Dyke’s sister, and your nose is just like his,’ ” Ms. Flagg said, chuckling. “I said, ‘OK, I’ll take it.’ “Isn’t that hilarious?” she said. “I won by a nose.” Quick to joke and chuckle, Ms. Flagg has made countless readers laugh with her novels about down-to-Earth characters who have no clue just how funny they are. The author and queen of movie cameos is probably best known for “Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe,” her 1987 book that was adapted into a 1991 movie starring Kathy Bates, Jessica Tandy, Mary Stuart Masterson and Mary Louise-Parker. Ms. Flagg had her cameo as the romance teacher. Now there’s a sequel. Ms. Flagg has written “The Wonder Boy of Whistle Stop” (Random House, $28.) The book will be released Oct. 27, and it will be available at Chaucer’s Books on upper State Street, Tecolote Book Shop in Montecito and on amazon.com. Now seemed like the right time for a sequel, Ms. Flagg said. “This year, as you know, I have not been able to travel,” the Birmingham native said in her Southern accent. She was referring to complications rising from the COVID-19 pandemic. “I have not been able to go anywhere. I have not been able to go back home, and I think, ‘I miss home. I miss those characters,’” she said. “And I wanted to write a book that had a happy ending and didn’t have politics because I’m tired of it,” Ms. Flagg said, referring to the Nov. 3 election and chuckling. “It’s just something that would be fun and make people laugh and maybe bring back some memories of their childhood,” she said. Ms. Flagg said she saw the “Fried Green Tomatoes” sequel as a way she could revisit fictional characters who were inspired by reallife people she knew in Alabama. And the fictional cafe in “Fried Green Tomatoes” is based on a real-life one from Ms. Flagg’s childhood in Irondale, a railroad town just outside Birmingham. And yes, Ms. Flagg said, the cafe did serve fried green tomatoes. “You know how that came about?” she said. “In the Depression, when people were so hungry and a lot of people couldn’t get meat, they would fry green tomatoes, and it would be like a substitute for meat.” She explained the new book, “The Wonder Boy of Whistle Stop,” is a way to bring the characters into the present and see what they’re doing.

Pomegranates This time of year, tangy antioxidant-packed pomegranates begin to shine. While the fruit is somewhat tart, it can be enjoyed by eating the beads right out of the tough skin and softer membrane, or you can remove them and add them to a salad or steamed rice. Pomegranates can currently be found at all weekly Santa Barbara certified farmers’ markets, from a number of local farmers. Price averages $2 each.

Author bases characters on real people FLAGG

Continued from Page A3 The book spans various eras and locations, everything from Whistle Stop, Ala., in 1933, to Birmingham in 1982 to Christmas 1997 in Fairhope, Ala to Kissimmee, Fla., in 1989. There’s even a stop at Walt Disney World. In the sequel, Whistle Stop has become a ghost town, but the sense of community continues in the lives of Ninny Threadgoode, Bud, Ruthie and others. “It’s all these people serendipitously meeting back up, and the whole community that fell apart comes back together,� Ms. Flagg said. “I’m also interested in writing about people who think their life is over, and all of sudden, they get a second chance,� she said. The characters in both the new book and “Fried Green Tomatoes� include one who makes Ms. Flagg chuckle: Aunt Idgie. She was inspired by the author’s great aunt, Bess Fortenberry. “My grandmother’s younger sister — she was hilarious,� Ms. Flagg said. “When the first book ended, we didn’t know what happened to her (Aunt Idgie) and her brother and how she created a brand new life for herself down in Florida,� the author said. Ms. Flagg talked about another character close to her heart. “Ninny Threadgoode is based on one lady I knew down in Irondale. This big, tall country

woman. She was an innocent, sweet person. “She had a son who was mentally challenged, and she took care of him all of her life. She never complained. It would never occur to her to complain. She was a pure soul. “I was so impressed with her that I based the character on her,� Ms. Flagg said. The author has a knack for creating characters as colorful as their names, and among them is Dot Wheems. Ms. Flagg described her as “the glue that holds everybody together.� After the town of Whistle Stop shuts down and everyone leaves, Dot keeps in touch with all of them and gives everyone reports on each other. Ms. Flagg discussed another memorable character. “Ruthie, I think is a very typical Southern gal who tries to please everybody and wants to do the right thing and gets pushed around a little bit because she is so nice. She’s at a crossroad because her children are getting married. She’s lost her husband.� She said Ruthie is now dealing with the questions, “Who am I? What do I do next?’ By a set of circumstances, all of the sudden, she has an answer.� For readers and Ms. Flagg, the characters seem very real. The author said she feels the grief when one of them dies and genuine laughter at their hilarious moments. She considers her characters to be her friends and said she lets

FYI “The Wonder Boy of Whistle Stop� (Random House, $28) will be released Oct. 27. It will be available at Chaucer’s Books, 3321 State St. (805-682-6787); Tecolote Book Shop, 1470 East Valley Road, Montecito (805-969-4977); and at www.amazon.com.

the characters guide her. “I think I love that I can create a world that I would like to live in,� the author said. The author picked up a lot of details about human nature for her books from her time writing for “Candid Camera� (1960-75 on CBS), TV’s first major hidden camera show. She said she learned people are funny when they don’t realize they’re funny. And to this day, fans remember her as one of the frequent

panelists on the 1970s show “Match Game.� “All of the sudden, honey, about four months ago, I went to the mailbox, and I had all this fan mail,� Ms. Flagg said. “It’s all from men, and they’re all watching reruns of ‘Match Game,’ � she said, laughing. Ms. Flagg recalled traveling to CBS Television City in Hollywood and doing five shows in one day, back to back. She and the other panelists, who were all seated, changed their tops because each episode was for a different day of the week. (This is how game shows are still filmed today.) “I had a lot of pals out there with me: Brett Somers, who was a dear friend of mine; Richard Dawson, Charles Nelson Reilly, and Gene Rayburn was the moderator,� Ms. Flagg said. “He (Mr. Rayburn) and his wife were good friends of mine, so it was like a party, and there was no script.

“It was just like being silly for money,� she said. “It was great. “And it financed my writing career,� Ms. Flagg said. “I was just starting to try to write novels. It was a great way to pay the bills while I was struggling.� She said “Match Game� also helped her to understand her lifelong problem with spelling. The celebrity panelists wrote down their answers, and the audience laughed when they saw her spelling. Ms. Flagg said she laughed with the audience, who thought she was misspelling words on purpose. “I got a letter from a teacher in Ohio, who said to me, ‘Oh, Fanny, I see that you’re dyslexic,’� she said. Ms. Flagg proceeded to take a test and found out she did, in fact, have dyslexia. “It made me realize I’m not that dumb,� she said. “I’m dyslexic.� Later in the 1970s, Ms. Flagg had a role on Paradise Island in the pilot of “The New Original Wonder Woman,� the CBS series starring the iconic Lynda Carter. Filmed at Warner Bros. in Burbank, the pilot guest-starred Cloris Leachman as Hippolyta, Wonder Woman’s mother. “Lynda was just wonderful. She’s 6 feet tall; she’s amazing,� Ms. Flagg said. “Cloris is hilarious. It was grand fun to work with her. “I remember Cloris walked off a stage and fell into a bunch of artificial bushes,� Ms. Flagg said. “I remember the director said, ‘Lunch!’ � The author laughed.

his past week, I finished planting my winter garden. With a couple of raised beds on the side of the house and an approximately 15-foot wide circular plot in the backyard, the kids and I were able to get quite the assortment of plants in the ground. Going heavy on members of the Brassica vegetable family, which thrive in the winter, we made our rows and planted kale, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage and Brussels sprouts. Along a trellis where my summer green beans vines had recently been removed went the sugar snap pea seeds. Unlike green beans, which are not fond of the winter chill, pea plants can indeed withstand the colder times of year so they’re an acceptable swap for the season. And, with the air and soil still warm for the time being, the seeds are likely to germinate quite nicely. A few six packs of assorted lettuce varieties, some rainbow carrot seeds and rainbow chard plants took up most of the additional space. The final item I had yet to plant was one that I’d been carefully selecting from local farmers’ over the prior few weeks: garlic. If you’ve ever planted garlic in your home garden, you are well aware that a fully developed head originates from a single clove. Garlic is planted a couple of

inches below the soil and watered occasionally. It takes about seven months for the head to fully develop and be ready for harvest. So patience is in order. Conveniently, garlic takes up very little space and can be easily planted in rows between your other crops. With an array of garlic to choose from, my top pick for the home garden was a variety called “Copenhagen Goldâ€? from Mount Olive Organic Farm of Paso Robles. I took two heads and peeled apart the individual cloves, and in the ground they went. A few other varieties made the cut as well, but this was one that I was most excited about. The remaining garlic still on my counter top was used to make a roasted garlic crostini. Topped with roasted red pepper, goat cheese, thinly sliced jalapeĂąo pepper rounds and a drizzle of aged balsamic vinegar, this makes for a nice appetizer.

olive oil salt and pepper 2 fresh pimento peppers 4 ounces goat cheese 1 jalapeĂąo pepper, sliced into very thin rounds good quality aged balsamic vinegar 1 baguette, sliced 1/2 inch thick on an angel (makes about 12 slices) Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel most of the outer skin off the garlic, then trim about a 1/4inch section off the top of the head to expose the tip of the cloves. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap in foil. Drizzle your pimento pepper with olive oil and place on foil, but do not wrap. Place both in the oven and cook for about 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, drizzle the bread rounds with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Place in the oven and cook until toasted, about 7 minutes. Peel the skin off of the pimento pepper and remove the stem, seeds and membrane. Cut pepper into small strips. Prepare your crostini by spreading a couple of cloves of garlic over each bread round, followed by the goat cheese, pimento pepper slices, and a couple of rounds of jalapeĂąo. Finally, drizzle with good quality aged balsamic vinegar. Yield: 12 appetizer pieces.

“Why Am I / Por Que Soy� is among the books being given to children in a campaign by Santa Barbara-based Seven Seas Press.

Gifts for children SB publisher raises money for books By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Seven Seas Press, a Santa Barbara nonprofit publisher, is partnering with the national organization, Head Start, for its latest fundraising effort to provide books to local preschool children as they and their families navigate lack of access to early childhood learning opportunities due to COVID-19. “We are excited to announce our newest campaign aimed at gifting as many books as possible to children, many with parents who are working while navigating distance learning,â€? said Erika Romer, executive director at Seven Seas Press. Among them is “Why Am I / Por QuĂŠ Soy,â€? authored by Colleen McCarthy-Evans and illustrated by Sarah Dietz. “This book is perfect for these times we are experiencing. It is a playful and a sweet journey of muchneeded joy. It is a rhyming poem which is an invitation for little ones and adults alike to explore questions around why we are here. Now more than ever as children learn from home, books are an important and simple way to contribute to their well being,â€? said Ms. Romer. Funding from an IndieGoGo campaign will provide books to partner organizations, Head Start, and its sister organization, Storyteller Children’s Centers in Santa Barbara. “It is important to us to provide books that offer fresh, supportive and relevant content which explore ways to navigate the world around us in a connected way. We offer all of our books in bilingual format in support of all of our bilingual Santa Barbara families,â€? added Ms. Romer. This latest campaign follows two others that raised over $10,000 for more than 600 books locally and beyond, including organizations that support families in border facilities, hurricane, fire and mudslide relief, and refugee camps in Australia and Greece. Seven Seas Press continues its mission to seek out partnerships with organizations that offer direct services to children in need. This past summer’s campaign supported by individual donations, funding from American Riviera Bank and an in-kind donation by Boone Printing, enabled the publisher to send 173 English and bilingual books to 4- to 8-yearolds enrolled in Girls Inc. programs. Last month, 50 books were distributed by Artesania para la Familia in Carpinteria, an organization that works directly with underserved families by identifying needs and facilitating distribution of donations. email: mmcmahon@newspress. com

These are among the books in the Seven Seas Press’ effort to help families during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Aries — A friend could tell you about an exciting new person for whom you feel a very powerful physical attraction when you see their picture, Aries. Your first conversation could prove exciting but stay calm and remain objective. If your feelings are too obvious, he or she could well lose interest before anything has time to develop! Just be yourself, enjoy the discussion, and have fun. That’s all you need do at this point. Taurus — Some exciting career developments could have you flying high today, Taurus. Perhaps you’ve just reached a long-term goal or managed to get a break that tells you that your goals are now within reach. Whichever it is, you’re likely to be on the receiving end of some congratulations, perhaps from unexpected people. More income could also be in the offing. Whatever it is, you’ve earned it! Gemini — Tonight, you might decide to attend a small group activity of some kind, if possible, perhaps one concerned with philosophical or spiritual matters, Gemini. Everyone who attends is apt to feel very strongly about the subject, so discussions could prove lively and exciting. Your mind could be spinning like a top when you leave, so if you can, walk home so you can clear your head. Write down your thoughts. You will want to remember them. Cancer — Your financial situation could be greatly boosted by a development you hadn’t expected, Cancer. Perhaps some investments suddenly skyrocket in value, or maybe the homes in your neighborhood are suddenly worth more than you thought. Whichever it is, don’t try to cash in on it right now. Chances are the value of your investment will continue to increase. Hang in there and watch it grow. Leo — A legal matter that may have been pending for a while could finally be completed today, Leo. It’s very likely to go in your favor. Therefore, if you’ve been sitting on a contract, agreement, or other document that needs your signature, read it carefully before you sign. You will probably get what you want out of the transaction. By the way, this is also a great day to get married! Virgo — Your physical energy is likely to be high today, Virgo, so you might notNovember feel like staying indoors. Monday, 16, 2015 Take care of your body first, and get in a good workout. You may also want to explore, perhaps by driving

out of town for the day or going to an amusement park, if possible. You may not feel this energetic very often, so it’s best to make the most of it when you can. Libra — An exciting rush of physical passion could hit you today when you’re introduced to an interesting new person, Libra. Take care not to wear it on your face. You generally don’t like to reveal that much of yourself! Besides, you won’t want this person to think you’re too obvious. Try to stay focused and remain objective. Then consider whether it’s a good idea to pursue this attraction. Scorpio — Chores that need to be done around the house could be at the top of your priority list today, Scorpio. A female visitor, perhaps your mother, could come by and making your place look great will preoccupy you. Don’t do any more work than you absolutely have to. You won’t want to be too tired when she arrives. Sagittarius — Today you may have some important phone calls to make, Sagittarius, and want to get them out of the way before doing anything else. You will definitely get your message across because your communicative abilities are very strong. Words combine with feelings to create understanding between you and just about anyone, whether you’re talking on the phone or writing. Capricorn — Good news about money could create some excitement in your household today, Capricorn. One of your goals might be to invest some of the funds in fixing up your living situation. You might even consider moving or purchasing a new home. You may kick around a lot of ideas about how to spend the windfall, but don’t go too crazy. Hold on to some of that money as a nest egg. Aquarius — An intriguing new neighbor, perhaps someone you’re attracted to, could move in near you, Aquarius. This might prove very exciting. You will probably strike up a conversation and enjoy talking with him or her. Whether you choose to pursue this attraction depends on both of your current situations, but at the very least, you will make a new friend. Pisces — Your intuitive abilities should be operating at a very high level today, Pisces. You might inadvertently receive some positive psychic messages about your future, and this could prove very exciting. These insights could be a source of inspiration that propels you to accomplish wonders in some aspect of your life. This could turn out to be a self-fulfilling prophecy! Make the most of it.

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.

Five candidates vying for Carpinteria school board By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Two spots on the Carpinteria Unified School District are up for election, and five candidates want in. The open positions are currently held by Rogelio Delgado, who is running for reelection, and Michelle Robertson, who is not running. All the candidates have students in the district, and equity is a common theme among their platforms.

CRAIG COOK Craig Cook is a professor in the American Ethnic Studies department at Santa Barbara City College. His main goal is to advocate for vulnerable student populations. “We must create and foster a more equitable education in our district — especially hybrid/online education,� he says on his website, craigmcook33. wixsite.com. “The good news is that I will work hard to bridge the opportunity and

achievement gaps that exist.� He has three CUSD students and enjoys volunteering in their classrooms. He is on the Carpinteria Middle School site council as well.

JAIME DIAMOND Jaime Diamond is the coordinator for Carpinteria Foodbank and a mother of three. She enjoys getting involved in the schools and served as the vice president for Parents at Canalino for five years and president at Parents for Carpinteria Middle School. “I point out problems in our school district and school board but always follow up by offering a solution, and I’ve worked tirelessly on reducing food insecurity among students and families,� she says on her website, jd4cusd.com. She has lived in Carpinteria since 2003.

ROGELIO DELGADO Rogelio Delgado is the only incumbent

running for reelection. He spent the first years of his life in Mexico before moving to Carpinteria. He graduated from Carpinteria High School and holds a master’s degree in education from UCLA. He has three daughters, one of which is still studying at CHS. He has served four years on the board and is running again, promising transparency to voters. “My biggest achievement has been gaining enough support to implement a Multicultural Literature Course in our high school,� he said in a Facebook post.

He is a fan of extracurricular activities. “We need to take a good look at the curriculum with a goal to inspire every student in our district,� he said. “I’m ready to work hard and make decisions with our student’s interests first.�

JEFF WEINBENDER Jeff Weinbender graduated from Westmont College in 1989 and continued his education, earning certificates from SBCC, San Jose City College, San Jose State and UCSB. He teaches history in the Santa Barbara Unified School District. “This past year has highlighted how vital and important our schools are, like never before,� he said in his opening remarks during the candidate forum. “I’m running because I want to help, and I believe I can offer the type of experience and sound decisions our schools need.� His wife is also a teacher, and their daughter attends CMS.

AARON SMITH Aaron Smith and his wife were born and raised in Carpinteria and are now raising three kids in the same schools they attended. He is on the board of the boosters club at Carpinteria High School. “I am running with the focus to continue the work being done in our district to promote equity and close the achievement gap,� he said in a candidate forum held by the Alcazar Theater.

BEYOND / HELLO Santa Barbara, a Jushi brand cannabis dispensary, has arrived in Santa Barbara. The new dispensary officially opened Wednesday with a ribbon cutting ceremony and a live mural creation throughout the afternoon, featuring artist Jona Cerwinske. Located at 3516 State St., the flagship location in California offers a variety of products for Santa Barbara residents,

including flower, edibles, cartridges, topicals, tinctures and pre-rolls, with extracts and gear available. BEYOND / HELLO Santa Barbara is also kick starting with a promotion for 20% off select products. In addition, customers who walk in receive a golden ticket that will win them anywhere from $5 to $100 off. Blythe Huestis is the VP of Customer Experience for Jushi and BEYOND / HELLO, and told the News-Press the company was built on two small words. “Instead of having a

transactional experience for our customers, we really want to go ‘beyond’ a ‘hello’ and start open and honest dialogue with the customers we see and the communities we serve,� she said. “We’ve really taken the time to analyze what the customers in this area are looking for, so we spent a lot of time curating the absolute best product selection.� She added that she believes the products are reasonably priced, so that customers could come in and buy something for as little as $6.

UCSB shoots for success with women’s basketball By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

Coach Bonnie Henrickson found several silver linings while her UCSB women’s basketball team trained under the cloud of COVID. The Gauchos, who took their conditioning indoors on Monday, will open official, full-scale practice today at the Thunderdome. “It’s been a pleasant surprise, what we’ve been able to do during COVID,” said Henrickson, who is starting her sixth season as UCSB’s head coach. “For one thing, we’ve shot more than any team I’ve ever coached. “You can’t play one-on-one or have contact, and you don’t want to do much footwork on an outside surface, but you can shoot.” The Gauchos, the No. 2 seed for the Big West Conference Tournament that was canceled by the coronavirus last March, had been shooting for the last month at portable baskets on the tennis courts next to Robertson Gym and the Intercollegiate Athletics Building. “Danae (Miller) looks good, and Natalia (Bruening) has been shooting it well, too,” Henrickson said. “We’ve let Natalia shoot a lot from the perimeter. What good does it do to shoot a lot around the rim when no one’s allowed to touch you?” Miller is a two-time All-Big West point guard who averaged 13.5 points and 4.0 assists last year. Bruening, a 6-foot-4 post player, averaged 9.9 points and 6.1 rebounds as a junior before sitting out last season as an injury redshirt. Bri Anugwom, a 5-7 junior who averaged 8.6 points and 5.2 rebounds in 2018-19, is also back from a knee injury. “She’s still in a brace but going full-court in all the workouts,” Henrickson said. “She’s looking good, too. And Kiana (Vierra, 5-10 junior guard) is here, getting in the mix, after having a procedure on her foot.” Three-point shooting has been a point of emphasis during the offseason. June graduates Coco Miller and Tal Sahar made more than half of the threes for last

year’s team. Aliceah Hernandez, a 5-9 junior guard who shot 41.9% from three last year, still needs medical clearance before returning from the knee injury she suffered at midseason. “I just got off the phone with her and we’re still trying to figure things out,” Henrickson said. “Practicing on an outdoor court wasn’t an option for her, but she has been working out at home on a basketball court and, in fact, is chomping at the bit to get back here.” Veterans Mira Shulman and Lauren Lee also have taken advantage of the extra shooting. Shulman, a 5-9 senior forward, shot 52.9% from three (9-for-17) and 91.7% from the free-throw line (11-12) when injuries thrust her into the lineup for seven starts last year. Lee, a 5-11 junior guard, has already logged 56 starts for the Gauchos. “Mira looks a lot stronger and Lauren has been shooting the ball better than she has in all of her career,” Henrickson observed. Three newcomers are also bringing a lot of offense. Doris Jones, a first-team All-State JC player in 2019, surpassed the 1,000-point mark in just two seasons at Diablo Valley Community College. The 5-9 senior, who started her career at the University of Houston, worked out with the Gauchos last year as a redshirt. Anya Choice, a 5-8 guard from Santa Rosa, and Alyssa Marin, a 5-9 guard from Camarillo, were both prolific shooters in high school. Choice, who was one of

five finalists for California’s Ms. Basketball Award, averaged nearly 30 points per game for Cardinal Newman High while making nine threes in one game alone. Marin sank 81 threes for Camarillo last year while scoring at a 21.6-point clip. “Our two freshmen are really showing maturity and pace and intensity,” Henrickson said. “Their ability to score will really help us.” Two transfers who are set to redshirt, 6-foot senior Megan Anderson and 6-2 junior Taylor Mole, are also major three-point threats. Anderson set school records at San Jose State for three-point percentage in both a season

(43.8%) and in a career (40.3%). Her 185 career threes left her just 14 shy of another school mark. Mole shot 34.8% from three last season while playing in 27 of Colorado State’s 30 games. Mole recently endured a two-day trip from her home in Tasmania to get to UCSB. “She hadn’t even seen the Thunderdome before Monday,” Henrickson said. “She told me, ‘Coach, I really like it.’” Anderson and Mole could become eligible immediately if the NCAA approves a temporary transfer rule. It was proposed by several schools which have had their rosters depleted by players who’ve opted out of this season because of

the coronavirus. San Jose State is one of the team’s on UCSB’s preseason schedule. The Gauchos, who are tentatively set to open the season at the University of San Diego Tournament on Nov. 27, have also arranged nonconference games with Pepperdine, Cal Baptist and USC. “It’s all still up in the air, though,” Henrickson said. “The Pac-12 is still considering some things that might affect our USC game, and we don’t even know who we’d be playing in San Diego. They’re still trying to figure out their numbers and the opt-outs.”

For now, however, the Gauchos are back operating inside the Thunderdome — and at full speed ahead. “We’re testing twice a week (for the coronavirus),” Henrickson said. “John (McCutcheon, athletics director) and Kelly (Barsky, deputy athletics director) have done an amazing job of setting everything up. It’s like a full-time job on top of another full-time job for them.” And it’s giving the Gauchos their best shot at playing basketball once again. email: mpatton@newspress.com

Dodgers deliver knockout in first inning against Braves ARLINGTON, Tex. — The Los Angeles Dodgers started Wednesday’s must-win baseball game with a most-runs inning. They pummeled two Atlanta Braves pitchers for a postseasonrecord 11 runs during the first inning and continued on to a 15-3 victory in Game 3 of the National League Championship Series. Atlanta, which held the Dodgers to just one run during the first 15 innings of the series, still leads the NLCS 2-1, with Game 4 scheduled for tonight at 5:08 p.m. PDT. Dodger ace Clayton Kershaw, who was scratched from his Game 2 start because of back spasms, will match up against the Braves’ Bryse Wilson, who has pitched just 42.2 innings in the major leagues. The Dodgers, who hit a majorleague-best 117 home runs during the regular season, got untracked on Wednesday by clubbing three in the first inning alone. Joc Pederson got it started with a three-run blast and Edwin Rios followed with a solo shot on the very next pitch. Pederson went 4-for-6 to lead L.A.’s 16-hit attack. “That was fun to be a part of,” he said. “Some of the momentum from (Tuesday) night... the last inning definitely carried over and got us feeling a little more comfortable at the plate... fun to be a part of.” Then Dodgers scored four runs in the ninth inning on Tuesday to fall just short in an 8-7 defeat.

SCHOOLS

Continued from Page A1 During the meeting, Dr. Henning Ansorg, health officer for the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department, issued an updated health officer order which allows districts to reopen in-person with safety guidelines in place. The order makes it possible for middle and high schools to reopen, though CUSD officials didn’t seem confident it could open secondary schools until January. Liaison for the Public Health Department Susan Klein Rothschild consulted with the board during the meeting. “If our rate of COVID in the community increases and we have a lot more cases, then you’ll see a health officer order will make it tighter because we all have to

Braves’ starting pitcher Kyle Wright, who retired just two batters on Wednesday, was done after walking Chris Taylor, the No. 9 hitter in the Dodgers’ lineup. Grant Dayton then gave up a walk to Mookie Betts and an RBI single by Corey Seager — his second RBI hit of the inning. Seager went 3-for-4 in the game. The Dodgers appeared to score again on a wild pitch, although the Braves won a challenge when the replay showed that the ball had struck Justin Turner on the foot. It was a short-lived victory for Atlanta, however: Six pitches later, Max Muncy crushed a grand-slam home run to right center field — his second homer in as many games and just the 20th grand slam in LCS history. The Texas native said it was “pretty cool” to hit a slam in his home state. “Not too many things are cooler than that,” he said. “Biggest thing to me is our team got a W and got us back on track. The Dodgers’ 18 total bases were the most in any inning in postseason history. Ten of their 11 runs were scored with two outs. Their three homers and five extra-base hits tied records for a postseason inning. Cody Bellinger and Seager added solo homers in the second and third innings, respectively, to increase the lead to 13-0. — Mark Patton work together,” she said. If the county sinks back to the purple tier, she says the plan is to still keep children in school but increase testing teachers. She also announced that the department will be “dramatically expanding” the availability of free COVID-19 tests in November. CUSD employees have been tested on two occasions through the district. Every test came back negative. The district discussed the availability of substitute teachers. Board member Rogelio Delgado suggested the district pay substitutes to be on call. But board member Sally Green said there aren’t enough subs available. Mr. Delgado was the only member to vote opposed to reopening secondary schools in January. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

Temperatures expected to cool down

By JOSH GREGA NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The intense heat Santa Barbara has experienced the last couple of days is expected to continue for a few more days before a cool off begins over the weekend into early next week. According to National Weather Service meteorologist David Sweet, the temperature in the city of Santa Barbara is expected to reach a high of 94 degrees today. UCSB will be several degrees cooler, reaching a high of 86 degrees, with areas by the coast at large being significantly cooler than inland areas. Friday is forecast to be the hottest day of this heatwave, reaching a high temperature of 96 degrees in the city of Santa Barbara. This will be followed by a somewhat cooler but still hot weekend, with the city experiencing high temperatures of 88 and 85 degrees on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Weekend temperatures at UCSB will also follow this pattern with lesser temperatures, 81 degrees on Saturday and 77 degrees on Sunday. Mr. Sweet added that areas closest to the beach at UCSB and in Goleta could reach temperatures as mild as the high 60s on Sunday. The cool down is expected to arrive Monday, with temperatures in the city of Santa Barbara and UCSB both expected to fall below the 80s. The city’s forecasted high temperature is 79 degrees, while UCSB’s is 74. “There is relief on the way,” Mr. Sweet said.

DAVE MASON/NEWS-PRESS

Andy Caldwell told the NewsPress that Judge Barrett is “as eminently prominent” as Justice Ginsburg and deserving of “the same respect, courtesy, and the same near-unanimous, bipartisan confirmation vote” that the late justice did when she was confirmed by the United States Senate in 1993. Of course, Democrats are uniformly opposed to the confirmation of Judge Barrett, and Mr. Caldwell, who is also a News-Press columnist, accused them of screening Judge Barrett as if they were demanding she pass a “political litmus test” for an institution that is “supposed to be beyond partisan politics.” For Santa Barbara Democrats, the outrage is that Judge Barrett has been nominated at all, let alone going through a confirmation hearing. Sen. Hannah Beth Jackson, D-Santa Barbara, told the NewsPress that the hearing is in the

“theater of the absurd,” and said the nomination going forward is hypocritical considering Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s comments against nominating a Supreme Court Justice in an election year when President Barack Obama nominated Merrick Garland to fill the vacant seat left by Justice Antonin Scalia’s in 2016. Sen. Jackson stated that all the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee are trying to do now is uncover what Judge Barrett intends to do if confirmed to the Supreme Court. “The Democrats’ goal is to confirm what we all know, and that is she is going to vote to overturn Roe v. Wade, going to vote to overturn the Affordable Care Act,” the senator remarked. Sen. Jackson also criticized Judge Barrett for not answering questions on how she might rule in certain cases when she has already made her opinions on

certain issues clear. “Clearly, her leanings, her decisions, her personal opinions are far to the extreme of the American people,” she said. California Democratic Party Region 10 director and Santa Barbara County Democratic Central Committee south vice chair David Atkins also characterized Judge Barrett’s personal views as extreme and took issue with the Supreme Court nominee not answering questions about her opinions on certain cases. “(Judge) Barrett is avoiding and dodging every question, pretending that she’s never thought about any of these issues in her life,” he said. Mr. Atkins added, “The Constitution-in-exile originalists would like to repeal the last 100 years of progress and (Judge) Barrett is one of them.” email: jgrega@newspress.com

Today is the fourth day of Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation hearing for her appointment to the United States Supreme Court, and the unfolding event is predictably viewed along partisan lines by prominent local Republicans and Democrats. In interviews with the NewsPress, the former expressed admiration for the nominee’s judicial qualifications and performance during the hearings, while the latter believe the hearings themselves are nothing short of a travesty. Santa Barbara County Republican Party Chairwoman Bobbi McGinnis said she liked how Judge Barrett steered clear of stating opinions on certain cases by referencing late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s principle of not expressing “hints, forecasts, or previews” on legal precedent, should that precedent be applied to a future case she has to rule on. Ms. McGinnis remarked that Judge Barrett “has handled herself very well” while fielding questions from Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee, who she said were more respectful this time around than during the fraught confirmation process for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. However, the chairwoman did find the line of questioning from Sen. Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, inquiring about whether or not Judge Barrett had ever committed sexual harassment or assault “over the top.” Local Republican and Coalition of Labor, Agriculture & Business executive director
