Santa Barbara News-Press

was a broadsheet newspaper based in Santa Barbara, California. It was founded in 1868 as the Post and merged with the rival News to form the News-Press in 1932. On July 21, 2023, it filed for bankruptcy and ceased publication.

The newsroom was reduced from 65 employees to 20 by 2016; that same year, the Santa Barbara News-Press was among the first newspapers to endorse Donald Trump's campaign for president. McCaw authored several right-wing editorials during the following years, including criticism of social distancing rules during the COVID-19 pandemic. The newspaper's printed edition was later reduced to four pages before being eliminated entirely.

Nassau Press

The Nassau Press is a side bet, in addition to the original bet, offered during a Nassau match by the side that is losing in an effort to even their money for either the front nine, back nine or overall. If the player who "presses" (offers the press) then beats his opponent over the remaining holes on a given nine or the overall, he wins the press bet. In effect it is a double-or-nothing proposition. When a side/overall is two or more points down in the match, they may request a press. The opposition has the option to accept or reject the press, although it is usually accepted. See Hog Press for a variation to these rules.

The press bet runs for only the remaining holes to be played on either the front nine, back nine holes or overall. In addition, a press on overall (the entire 18 holes) by the losing opponent will continue throughout the match as a new bet even up at the time of the press. For true junkies, Press bets can themselves be pressed if the player falls two points behind on the press bet. The amount of the press bet is the same as the original match bet. For example, in a $2 Nassau, presses are for $2. This is basically a double-or-nothing proposition for the player in the lead.
Losing Team – Ok, we’re 2 down so we’re calling a Nassau Press…good luck gentleman, may the best team win!
Leading Team – Ha! They don’t call us Ice and Black Jack for nothing! Kiss that money goodbye suckers!! Heck we went 73 and 74 in Four Ball Finals 5 years ago…best rounds of the year…on the same day!!

Putting on the press

When you are at the bar trying to pick up.

Based on the (FCP) Full Court Press in basketball.

If they go to the dance floor... you go to the dance floor. If they go to the bar... you go to the bar. If they go to the washroom...you wait outside the washroom. In theory, if you're the only person they've seen all night, you are their only option at the end of the night.
I'm putting on the press tonight.
