South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem offered remarks during a televised roundtable at the Reagan Ranch Center in downtown Santa Barbara on Tuesday.

By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem spoke to a conservative audience at the Reagan Ranch Center on Tuesday as part of a roundtable event aired by Newsmax. The governor discussed her political background, her upbringing and her perspective on issues like the COVID-19 pandemic, Afghanistan and the Biden administration on Tuesday with Newsmax primetime host Rob Schmitt. Their conversation aired on “Rob Schmitt Tonight” at 5 p.m. PT Tuesday. At the start of Tuesday’s roundtable, Ms. Noem began by telling the audience about her background in politics and her upbringing on a ranch in South Dakota. She shared that she first got into politics after her father passed away when she was just 22 years old. After he died, her family received a massive bill from the IRS for death taxes that threatened to bankrupt their long-standing family business. Seeing the impact the taxation was having on her family, Ms. Noem began to take action by attending meetings and lobbying for tax reform. This ultimately propelled her into politics, where she was elected to the South Dakota House of Representatives in 2006, served four terms in the U.S. House of Representatives and has served as governor of South Dakota since 2019. The governor encouraged members of the audience on Tuesday to run for political positions — even on the local level — and get involved in areas where they desire to see change. “What we need in this country is more people to say ‘yes,’” Ms. Noem said. “I’m not a believer that I’m the one who has to be there serving a different position to make the right decisions. I think that a lot of people right now, they’re questioning what’s going on in the government, and they need to look inside and say, ‘Do I need to run for something? Do I need to run for a school board or do I need to

run for city council?’ Because we need people to show up that really do love this country and want to make sure it’s still there for our kids.” During Tuesday’s roundtable, the governor fielded a variety of questions from both Mr. Schmitt and the audience, offering her perspective on COVID-19, the Afghanistan withdrawal and immigration. During the COVID-19 pandemic, South Dakota was one of just a few states that did not enforce a mask mandate, social distancing requirement or lockdown period, even in the early stages of the pandemic. Ms. Noem defended this decision during Tuesday’s talk, saying she spent time talking with attorneys that specialized in Constitutional law to understand the authority she had as governor and also consulted with health officials. After these conversations, she ultimately decided to leave it up to the people of South Dakota to make their own health choices. “I’ve just been a big believer consistently that when you have a leader that oversteps their authority, especially in a time of crisis, that’s when you break this country,” Ms. Noem said Tuesday. “I didn’t want to be that leader, so I stood up in front of my people … and I told them, ‘Listen, I’m going to give you all the information that I have, I’m going to give you the science of the virus that I know, the data, the support, the help that we can (give) as a state government, but then I’m going to trust you. I’m going to let you use personal responsibility to make the best decisions for your family, but let you put food on the table and keep your business going and take care of your employees as well.” The governor also discussed immigration and the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan on Tuesday, sharing with the audience that South Dakota is one of four states that is not accepting Afghan refugees through the nation’s resettlement program. She claimed that the Biden Please see NOEM on A3

Pfizer submits data for vaccine use among younger children By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The South Dakota governor discussed a variety of topic’s during Tuesday’s roundtable, offering her perspective on COVID-19, immigration and the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Pfizer-BioNTech submitted vaccine data for children ages 5 to 11 to the Food and Drug Administration on Tuesday, spurring hope that a vaccine could be available for younger children by the end of October. The data encompasses results from a clinical trial that included more than 2,000 children. The FDA is expected to review this data over the next few weeks before considering an Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). In a joint statement, Pfizer and BioNTech said a formal submission request for an EUA is expected to follow in the coming weeks, and the organizations also plan to submit to the European Medicines Agency.

Mobile home parks in the city of Santa Barbara will no longer be able to raise space rental fees beyond 10% between occupants. Members of City Council approved the addition of vacancy control to the City’s mobile home park laws in the hopes the change would preserve a source of affordable housing. “Mobile home housing really is one of the last bastions of affordable housing, certainly in the state of California and I think it’s very much true here in our own community,” councilmember Meagan Harmon said. “And for that reason, it’s absolutely imperative that we take any and all steps available to us to maintain the stability of that housing stock.” The decision was unanimous — despite claims from Flamingo Mobile Home Park that the ordinance is illegal. Vacancy control, atop pre-existing rent control, was established in the City’s 1984 mobile home ordinance. A judge in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled the laws illegal, stating it took control away from the owners and gave homeowners an unequal share of power. City Attorney Ariel Calonne said a 1992 U.S. Supreme Court case “cut the legs out from under the reasoning of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.” The circuit court’s opinion wasn’t directly overruled, but Mr. Calonne believes the 1992 decision gives the City the legal grounds to reinstate vacancy control.

The Dos Pueblos girls golf team beat San Marcos 230-254 Monday at Glen Annie Golf Club. The coaches praised each other’s teams after the match on a cool day with a light breeze at the Goleta course. “We had a solid team score today, but lost to a talented DP team,” Coach Sarah Ashton told the News-Press in an email. “DP is a well-rounded team, and they know Glen Annie well.” And Dos Pueblos Coach Dan Choi complimented the San Marcos team. “As expected, the San Marcos team came in wellprepared and ready to give our team a good challenge. SM deserves a lot of credit with three girls in the 40s. “Our golfers were up for the challenge with four of the scoring athletes all equalling or bettering their season bests, and Chelsi

(Ramirez) being just one stroke off hers,” Choi told the News-Press in an email. “Victoria Chen posted a score in the 30s for the first time in a match this year. “They are all such a fun group of smart, hardworking and dedicated teammates that have made it a pleasure to be around them and coach them and see their hard work off,” Choi said.

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem and Newsmax prime-time host Rob Schmitt listen to a question from an audience member during Tuesday’s roundtable.

Noem says incoming Afghan refugees insufficiently vetted NOEM

Continued from Page A1 administration is not “vetting these individuals like the Trump administration,” and said this is part of the reason why the state will not accept the refugees. “We don’t know who these people are,” Ms. Noem said. “We don’t know if they love America. Nobody should come into this country unless they love America, unless they want to be here, be a citizen, and embrace the ideals that made this country great.” The governor went on to discuss how she directed her state’s National Guard to respond to the current immigration crisis at the nation’s southern border. She called the situation at the southern border a “war zone,” adding that what is currently

happening is potentially “devastating to our future.” Ms. Noem said to solve the immigration crisis, the U.S. should “address the immigration system and make it more possible for people to come here legally.” “We’re very proud of the people who come here and go through the process of doing it legally,” she said. “But we also need to make sure that while they’re coming to the border, before they ever take the trip, before they ever put their children in jeopardy by putting them through that challenging trip that they take to the border, to let them know you can’t come here unless you follow the legal process.” The governor also commented briefly on small businesses leaving California for other states, answering a question from a local business owner about what

California policymakers can do to take a pro-small business stance. In response to the question, Ms. Noem said the approach she has taken as a Republican governor is to allow businesses the freedom to be creative in investing and growing businesses. She said small business is the “backbone of this country,” and said the best thing for the government to do to encourage small business growth is to “get out of the way.” Before the close of Tuesday’s roundtable, Mr. Schmitt asked the governor if she has considered a presidential bid in 2024, to which she responded that she is focused on winning re-election in her state during next year’s gubernatorial race. “I ran for governor because I love our state and want to be there,” Ms. Noem said.

Following Tuesday’s roundtable, Andrew Coffin, the director of the Reagan Ranch Center, told the News-Press that it was an honor to host someone who “so many people in our country admire.” “(People) appreciate how free a state and open the state South Dakota is, and just (Ms. Noem’s) ability to stand for a principle and explain why she’s doing what she’s doing, I think that’s incredibly important as a leader,” Mr. Coffin said. “It’s the type of leader we want to put in front of our audiences.” Editor’s note: Tuesday’s event at the Reagan Ranch Center was part of the “Wendy P. McCaw Roundtable Series.” Ms. McCaw is a co-publisher of the News-Press. email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

Mobile home park owners object to ordinance MOBILE

Continued from Page A1 disagrees. The idea to revisit vacancy control erupted out of discussions of a senior mobile home park overlay. The city is currently in the process of establishing a permanent rule to lock in senior mobile home parks to maintain 80% residency at 55 years of age and older. City staff are only aware of one senior park, Flamingo Mobile Home Park, which began the conversion to a family park last winter. City Council maintains that it halted the park’s transition when it enacted a temporary ordinance. Pacific Current Partners, California-based mobile-home and RV park investors, bought the park in 2018. Brad Hill, partner at PCP, told

Council that PCP invested in Flamingo under the expectation that Santa Barbara would remain without vacancy control. “This proposed ordinance that targets our property will lead to a significant value impairment that goes too far and could not have been reasonably anticipated,” he said. Members of the City Council disagreed and pointed to the County of Santa Barbara’s vacancy control of 10% as reason to expect similar provisions in the city. “I believe that there are companies that go around looking for these types of opportunities where these protections that aren’t in place, and to expect that those protections aren’t put in place is extremely naive from a business standpoint,” councilmember Mike Jordan said. PCP submitted mobile homes sales data, ranging from 20192021, to the City Council. The cost of mobile homes in county parks is

just over double the cost of homes within the city. Mr. Hill and PCP’s attorney James Ballantine also argue that vacancy control inflates the sale price of the homes in the park. They maintain the higher mortgage payments would be less affordable than the at-market space rent. In a document sent to the city, PCP anticipates its annual revenue 10 years from now to be $990,296 under 10% vacancy control. If it could raise rent between occupants, it projects a revenue of $1,638,407. Dan Villano, one of Flamingo’s residents, gave a public comment to City Council to advocate for the homeowners in the park. “The land would be useless without people like us buying a mobile home and putting it on their space — so we are, in fact, equal partners,” he said. Mr. Calonne added an arbitration clause “to level the

playing field between park owners, with offices on Market Street in San Francisco and the ability to hire lawyers at great expense, and the people who are living in Santa Barbara in our mobile home parks,” he said. (PCP’s office is located on Market Street in San Francisco.) The provision allows residents to sue for triple damages if the park owner violates the ordinance. The City Attorney’s Office may also help enforce the ordinance. The City Council requested the addition that litigation will occur in a court agreed upon by both parties. If they can’t agree, litigation will be in Santa Barbara. The addition will be voted on in the next City Council meeting, scheduled for 2 p.m. next Tuesday. email: ahanshaw@newspress.com

Laguna Blanca School opens Center for Science and Innovation By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Laguna Blanca School unveiled its new Center for Science and Innovation during a ribboncutting ceremony Monday. The new classrooms will serve grades 9-12 on the upper school’s Hope Ranch campus. Administrators also plan to bring the younger students on field trips to the new facility. The construction is part of a $8.5 million fundraising campaign, “Building on Strength: The Campaign for Laguna’s Future.” A total of 137 donors contributed. In addition to the new classrooms, Laguna increased its endowment by $2 million. Laguna renovated its existing science labs and added a new building to offer more classroom and office space. The project is a total of 5,500 square feet and includes labs dedicated to STEM, biology and physics. The Nakamura STEM Research & Innovation Lab was busy Monday, as parents watched robotics team members show off their latest robot. John Pagano, director of STEM, told the News-Press that students are enjoying their new classroom. “It’s such a safe space for these kids to come in,” he said. “You can’t help but want to build stuff because you’ve got access to all these tools and all these things that they’ve never had before — whether it’s virtual reality headsets, a compound miter saw, and everything in between.” Previously, he kept drills and other tools behind his desk to hand out. Now, students can access the materials they need from brightly colored cabinets. Harrison Jones, a senior at Laguna, said it used to feel cramped in the classrooms. Now, with an additional lab, students

renovations. School staff, board of trustees members and campaign co-chair Elisabeth Fowler thanked the ceremony’s attendees for their contributions.

The latest clinical trial included 2,268 participants between the ages of 5 and 11. At this point in time, the Pfizer vaccine is the only vaccine available for Americans under the age of 18.

Marlene R. Miller is the guest curator for “Borein and His Circle of Friends.”

wo days after his death in 1945, Edward Borein, who was born in 1872, was eulogized in the Santa Barbara News-Press as the last artist of the longhorn era. “We have known for a long time — and now we’re beginning to believe — that history is not confined to dates, wars and edicts. We have known, and we are beginning to believe, that the most important history is not written words but rather in wordless records the phrases of which never become obsolete and the languages of which never become

dead,” the News-Press reported. “A ‘keeper’ of such records was Ed Borein, ‘painter and etcher of the old West,’ first-hand student of humanity, cowhand and philosopher . . . With etching tool and brush, with acid and paint, Ed Borein ‘wrote’ the history of America’s West, of a way of living and — all important — of a way of thinking, that will be part of America’s strength long after the details of the West are forgotten. He ‘wrote’ history in a way that will be read and reread unnumbered times for generations to come.” While Marlene R. Miller has no quarrel with the well-deserved words of praise, she feels that people don’t really know about Ed Borein as a person and what his

status was in the community. “People just know about his artwork. They don’t know who he really was,” said Mrs. Miller, an acknowledged authority on Mr. Borein’s work. This inspired her to become the guest curator for “Borein and His Circle of Friends,” a special exhibition on view through Jan. 22 at the Santa Barbara Historical Museum. In 2017, she created a permanent tribute to the Santa Barbara artist with the museum’s Edward Borein Gallery. In conjunction with the exhibition, the museum is hosting several presentations on Mr. Borein’s life and artistry. In a free talk via Zoom at 5

tonight, Michael R. Grauer will discuss “Edward Borein: A Response to His Art.” Mr. Grauer is the McCasland Chair of Cowboy Culture and curator of Cowboy Collections at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City. Reservations are required at www.sbhistorical.org/ boreinfriends. “After settling in Santa Barbara with his wife Lucile in 1921, he became active in the community. He helped organize the city’s first Fiesta parade and was a founding member of the elite Los Rancheros Visitadores. He helped found the Santa Barbara School of Arts and taught there. He was a member of the American Artists Professional League and the PrintMakers

Society of California. In 1971, Ed Borein was posthumously elected to the National Cowboy Hall of Fame, the first native California so honored,” said Mrs. Miller during a phone interview from her Santa Barbara home which she shares with her husband, Warren Miller. “Ed and Thomas Storke were great friends. Ed had his studio in El Paseo, across the street from the News-Press, which was owned by Mr. Storke. They got together frequently. One of the paintings in the exhibit is a portrait of Mr. Storke that was done in 1944.” In addition to curating the exhibit, Mrs. Miller also raised funds for the new book “Edward Please see BOREIN on B2

Continued from Page B1 Borein: Etched by the West” by B. Byron Price, for the exhibit and for the 69-page catalog. A former trustee and president of the Santa Barbara Historical Museum, Mrs. Miller, who was born in southern Austria, immigrated

to Toronto in 1953 and moved to Santa Barbara in 1961, where she began a career in banking. In 1980, she opened the Arlington Gallery, dealing in 19th- and 20th-century American and European art, specializing in the work of Carl Oscar Borg and Mr. Borein. From 1995 until her retirement, she was a private dealer.

“I went to UCSB to learn about artists and developed a taste for local artists. Mr. Borg taught at the Santa Barbara School of Art and was known for his dramatic paintings of the Grand Canyon and other areas of the Southwest,” Mrs. Miller told the News-Press. Mr. Borg is among the “Circle of Friends” artists in the exhibition. Others are Colin Campbell Cooper,

Mr. Price is the former director of the Charles M. Russell Center for the Study of Art of the American West at the University of Oklahoma. Tickets are $15 for museum members and $20 for guests. Reservations are required. Mr. Price’s book, published by the museum, describes Mr. Borein’s path from itinerant vaquero to successful illustrator to revered recorder and interpreter of the vanishing west. The 336-

page work includes more than 400 images, many never published. “The hardback book is $65 and available for presale at www. sbhistorical.org/borein. A special edition limited to 100 copies is available for presale at $300. Each copy includes an archival quality reproduction of a 1930 photograph of the artist, inscribed and remarqued by him,” said Mrs. Miller.

He is an art historian and gallery director at Sullivan Goss: An American Gallery and curator of 19th- and 20th-century American Art. Tickets are $15 for museum members and $20 for guests. Reservations are required. When Mrs. Miller and her husband downsized from their home in Hope Ranch, they donated “12 or more” Borein works of art to the historical museum and now

own “eight or nine” etchings. Any favorites? “Two of them — ‘Five Vaqueros on Parade,’ an etching of vaqueros on their horses, and ‘Drink Time,’ an etching of mules drinking which Ed did for his wife. He did the mules because Lucile complained that he always had horses in his artwork,” said Mrs. Miller. email: mmcmahon@newspress. com

PET of the WEEK Heather A cat and her kitten were living in an unusual place. The engine of a car. Someone called Volunteers For Inter-Valley Animals about that, and the mother cat, who was very friendly, was brought to VIVA in Lompoc. The 2-year-old cat’s name is Heather, and she’s waiting for a more traditional home. The kittens were too old to socialize and were TNR’d (trap/neuter/ return). Heather is a petite, grey and white tuxedo. After a transitional period, Heather was able to leave her cage and be loose in VIVA’s Room One. This is when VIVA noticed she was limping and holding up her front foot.

VIVA took Heather to a veterinarian, who believes she may have an injury that didn’t heal correctly as well as some extreme arthritis. The veterinarian is recommending an amputation. VIVA will pay for that surgery as well as any followup visits, but believes Heather’s recovery would go much better in a home, rather than a shelter. She gets along well with other cats and is known for her sweetness. Heather would do best as an indoor cat at a quiet home, but she likes to run like a kitten. VIVA expects that with the leg removed, Heather will continue to be active and be playful. To adopt Heather, fill out an application at www.vivashelter. org or call VIVA at 805-735-6741. — Dave Mason

HOROSCOPE Horoscope.com Wednesday, September 29, 2021 ARIES — Romance blossoms for you today. If you’re single, a walk around the neighborhood could put you in touch with someone new and exciting. If you’re involved, you and your significant other could plan a trip out of town, perhaps a weekend getaway. The trip may be partly related to business. This is a great time to write, even if it’s only a letter to a relative. TAURUS — Are you attracted to someone connected with your work? If so, romance with this person could be in your immediate future. Don’t be surprised if your colleague suddenly seems to express an interest in you. What you do about it depends on your situation, but at least you’ll be flattered. You could make a new friend. GEMINI — You could be feeling energetic and driven. There’s something you feel you absolutely must work on today. Chances are you won’t be able to shake this conviction, so it’s best if you just roll up your sleeves and get going on it. You’ll undoubtedly get more accomplished than usual and be proud of the results. CANCER — Do you have the uncomfortable feeling that there’s something you ought to be doing but can’t think what it is? This feeling could bother you all day. It’s best to try to remember. Try sitting in a hot tub. Lean back, close your eyes and let the water flow around you. You may not recall it right now, but it will probably come to you later. LEO — Are you involved in an important group activity, possibly with close friends? If so, you might be working on a vital task, probably involving communication. A love partner might also be involved. You can be rather intense at times like this, so don’t come on too strong with those around you. Use all your people skills, be a good listener, and you should accomplish what you want. VIRGO — Career matters may force you into the public eye just when you’d prefer to sequester yourself and work alone. This could be frustrating, but significant financial benefits could depend on it. So come out of your shell and meet your public! In the end, you’ll be glad you did. You could make some great contacts and even some new friends.

LIBRA — Romance with someone from far away who shares your spiritual inclinations could arise today. This could be a very intense, loving, and supportive relationship. Don’t be shy, and don’t let your insecurities get the better of you. There’s never any guarantee that a love relationship will last, but don’t hold off because of that. Get to know this person. SCORPIO — You may have a very busy day ahead, but you might not be able to concentrate. Too many issues could churn up from the past. Old emotional traumas, money problems from years ago that still haunt you, even past dreams could be on your mind. Don’t fight it. This is a healing process. Clear the psychic space to make way for more positive input. SAGITTARIUS — A business or romantic partner could be gloomy today. Don’t ask. Your friend might lash out at you. Your concern isn’t unappreciated, but sometimes people prefer to work things out on their own. Be a good listener, but back away if necessary. Do something by yourself. Your partner will speak when he or she is ready. CAPRICORN — Have you been putting off some work? It may be weighing on your mind. You could work extra hard today to get it out of the way. Afterward you’ll feel relieved, but don’t push yourself too hard or you won’t have any energy left for tomorrow. If some of the tasks don’t get done, that’s OK. They’ve waited this long, so another day won’t hurt. AQUARIUS — A powerful creative urge may come upon you today. Your intuition should play a strong role in whatever you produce. You may feel driven to finish your project. The only downside might be that your partner may not understand why you want to work instead of go out. Follow your heart and keep working. Your friend will see it differently when you show the results. PISCES — A couple, perhaps friends, could visit today. Perhaps you’ve moved into a new home or redecorated and want to show them around. They’ll be impressed and you’ll enjoy the company. Do they share an interest in dreams with you? The subject of dreams may come up in the conversation. You could be surprised at the insights your friends have.

Thought for Today

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.
