EDITOR Queen Elizabeth II — the longest reigning monarch in Britain’s history and a head of state known for her warmth and smile during countless visits around the world, including Santa Barbara — has died. She was Buckingham96.Palace reported that Her Majesty died peacefully Thursday at Balmoral Castle in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Prince Charles, the son of Queen Elizabeth II and the late Prince Philip, is now King Charles III. His wife, Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, is now the Queen Consort. The palace said the couple was staying at Balmoral Thursday night and would return to London today. (In February, Queen Elizabeth said she wanted Camilla to become the Queen Consort, which is the traditional title for a woman who becomes queen through marriage.) Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, who live in Montecito, left Thursday for Scotland. King Charles III issued a statement on Twitter: “The death of my beloved Mother, Her Majesty The Queen, is a moment of the greatest sadness for me and all members of my family. “We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished Sovereign and a much-loved Mother,” King Charles said. “I know her loss will be deeply felt through the country, the Realm and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world.“During this period of mourning and change, my family and I will be comforted and sustained by our knowledge of the respect and deep affection in which The Queen was so widely held,” King Charles concluded.President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden issued their statement following the queen’s death. “Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was more than a monarch. She defined an era,” they said. “In a world of constant change, she was a steadying presence and a source of comfort and pride for generations of Britons, including many who would have never known their country withoutQueenher.”Elizabeth’s death comes just two days after she carried out her constitutional duty at Balmoral of appointing Liz Truss as her 15th prime minister. Before that, she met with Prime Minister Boris Johnson, whoAsresigned.aconstitutional monarch, Queen Elizabeth II couldn’t make political decisions or take sides in politics, but she served as a symbol of unity — someone who could inspire Britain, the Commonwealth and even the world during the best and worst of times.

Detectives learned during their investigation that Mr. Johnson was identified as the suspect who had distributed the decedent the fentanyl that caused hisAdeath.Santa Barbara County Superior Court judge authorized a search warrant associated with this case. It is believed that Mr. Johnson directly supplied the deadly drug to the decedent that caused his death. After months of investigation, Santa Barbara Police detectives served the warrant Sept. 1 and arrested Mr. Johnson in the 7100 block of Hollister Avenue, Goleta. A search after his arrest revealed quantities of fentanyl and other narcotics that constitute possession with the intent to distribute, Sgt. Ragsdale said. The suspect was booked at the Santa Barbara County Jail for murder and numerous felony narcotic violations. His bail was set at $1 million. Prosecutors charged the defendant with murder, claiming the fentanyl he allegedly provided Mr. Dyet caused his death sometime between April 28 and April 29. He also is charged with the transportation and/or sale of a controlled substance (fentanyl) during the same time period. In addition, the defendant is charged with possession for sale of a controlled substance (fentanyl), sale and/or transport of a controlled substance (methamphetamine), and possession for sale of a controlled substance (fentanyl) in connection with his Sept. 1 arrest. “Mr. Johnson is innocent unless and until he is proven guilty,” District Attorney Dudley said Thursday. “As to these charges, in general, when anyone knew or should have known that their actions could cause death to another the appropriate charge is murder.” Senior Deputy District Attorney Anthony S. Davis told the News-Press Thursday that there is another, similar homicide case that also was filed very recently.Thatone, against co-defendants Jonathan Fleischer and Edward Wysel, stemmed from an OD death investigation by the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office, he said. “Both defendants are currently in custody, were arraigned in late August, and are set for a preliminary hearing on Oct. 7,” he said. “As Joyce indicated, these are the first two cases of their kind filed locally, where individuals were charged with murder for providing drugs leading to someone’s death,” Deputy District Attorney Davis said. “Her comments, regarding innocence until proven guilty, as well as the appropriateness of charging anyone with murder under such circumstances, apply to all three charged defendants.”

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9,
Search-and-rescue workers, including those at the Command Post pictured above, spent five days looking for hiker Tim Sgrignoli. The hiker’s body was discovered Thursday.
WIKIMEDIA Elizabeth became the queen in 1953 at age 25.
Search-and-rescue crews discovered the body of missing hiker Tim Sgrignoli on Thursday morning, the fifth day they had hunted high and low for signs of the Ventura man in the hope of finding him alive. But despite their best efforts, and those of multiple K-9 dogs and personnel flying helicopters and drones, it was not to be. “We found the missing hiker deceased about 9:20 this morning,” Cmdr. Erik Raney of the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office told the News-Press. “He was found by one of the search teams dispatched to a specific area.” Cmdr. Raney said. “He was located 20 feet off the freeway just north of the Gaviota Tunnel.”Atthis point, the Santa Barbara County Coroner’s Office has taken over the investigation in terms of determining the cause and manner of death, he said. The office staff were called to the scene and took possession of the young man’s body. Cmdr. Raney said the coroner’s investigation could take three weeks.“Obviously heat was a related factor, but we don’t have any other information,” he said. Mr. Sgrignoli’s family, who live in Florida, and his girlfriend, who lived with him in Ventura, were at the scene Thursday as they have been all week when they received the news that he hadn’t made it.

“Immediately upon notification from Lyons Magnus, we began working closely with our distributors to remove the recalled product from the marketplace,” Summerland-based Kate Farms told the News-Press.
Summerland-based Kate Farms, a maker of organic plantbased nutrition shakes and formulas, was one of dozens of companies swept up in a voluntary product recall after third-party distributor Lyons Magnus LLC alerted the FDA to the potential that some products may have been contaminated with Cronobacter sakazakii and Clostridium botulinum bacterias. Lyons Magnus first initiated the voluntary recall on July 28, 2022 and included just five lots of Kate Farms’ Pediatric Standard 1.2 Vanilla product. The recall was subsequently expanded on Aug. 10 to include more than 40 lots of eight other products the company produces for Kate Farms.“This recall is being conducted due to the potential for microbial contamination, including from the organisms Cronobacter sakazakii and Clostridium botulinum,” Lyons Magnus said in a statement. “Although Clostridium botulinum has not been found in products, consumers are warned not to consume any of the recalled products even if they do not look or smell spoiled … Root cause analysis indicates that the products did not meet commercial sterility isproductAnyonespecifications.”whohasarecalledintheirpossessioninstructedtodisposeofit immediately or return it to the place of purchase for a refund. According to the CDC, Cronobacter sakazakii can be deadly for infants, elderly individuals, and those with compromised immune systems; while healthy individuals outside of those categories can experience urinary tract infections and issues with cuts, scrapes, and areas of the body that have been subject to surgery.Food-born Clostridium botulinum, also known as botulism, can be deadly for all individuals if left untreated. Symptoms include vomiting, nausea, stomach pain, and diarrhea in adults and adolescents. Infants can experience constipation, poor feeding, drooping eyelids, a weak cry, pupils that are slow to react to light, and difficulty breathing.“Thehealth and safety of our customers is Kate Farms’ highest priority. Lyons Magnus, a third-party manufacturer, issued a voluntary recall of more than 20 companies’ finished products manufactured at their Beloit, Wisconsin facility,” Kate Farms said in an email to the News-Press. “Before Kate Farms released any products produced there, we conducted a variety of tests, and we have done subsequent additional testing on the lots produced by Lyons Magnus.

THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) – A proposed referendum challenging a new law signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom that would create a state council to set standards for the fast food industry was filed this week, representing an attempt by opponents to overturn the measure.Gov.Newsom signed Assembly Bill 257 into law on Monday, which authorizes the creation of a state council to set regulations for the fast food industry, including minimum standards for wages, working hours and working conditions. The bill specifies that the council could raise wages no higher than $22 an hour starting in Opponents2023.ofthe measure have raised concern about the potential price impact to consumers, citing an analysis from the UC Riverside Center for Economic Forecasting Development that showed prices could increase by between 20% and 22% if limitedservice restaurant worker compensation increases by 60%. Within days of the bill being signed, a group of small business owners, franchisees and restaurateurs formed a coalition called Protect Neighborhood Restaurants and filed a referendum to overturn the law and send the measure before voters in 2024. Business groups and franchisors fiercely opposed AB 257 as lawmakers considered it. “As a result of backroom politicking, Governor Newsom has signed a lie into law and maligned all of California’s quick service small businesses and local franchisees as bad employers,” the coalition said in a statement Wednesday. “AB 257 never should have been introduced, it never should have passed, and it never should have been signed into law by the Governor.”Toqualify the referendum for the 2024 ballot, supporters must collect over 623,000 signatures by December, according to California law. If enough valid signatures are collected and the referendum qualifies for the ballot, the law would be suspended until it goes before voters. A spokesperson for the Attorney General’s office told the Wall Street Journal that a title and summary for the measure would be issued by Sept. 16. After that is issued, supporters can begin collecting signatures. The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) criticized the proposed referendum Wednesday. The SEIU supported the bill as it wove through the Legislature, praising the measure for giving California’s more than half a million fast food workers a seat at the table to have a say in their working conditions. “With AB 257, California has the opportunity to lead the way for expanding rights for working people and show the nation a model for building a healthy and sustainable fastfood industry,” SEIU California President David Huerta said in a statement. “But if billion-dollar fast food corporations want a referendum on their treatment of workers, bring it on. We are confident that California’s voters will stand on the side of fast food workers and reject the industry’s model built on poverty wages, unsafe work conditions, discrimination, and bullying and harassment of Theworkers.”proposed referendum is the latest attempt to overturn laws coming out of Sacramento by sending it before voters. This November, voters will consider a referendum challenging the state’s flavored tobacco ban.

Mr. Savas and the others claim that the union’s stipulation violates their rights under a 2018 Supreme Court decision in Janus v. the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. In that decision, the Supreme Court ruled that public sector unions cannot require non-union member employees to pay dues to cover the costs of non-political union activities, according to Ballotpedia. The ruling also specified that it violates the First Amendment to require public sector workers to pay union dues as a condition of employment.Mr.Savasand the plaintiffs say they sent messages to resign from the union and end due authorizations in September 2019.

Still, union officials allegedly denied the requests, according to the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation. The lifeguards claim they were told they could either remain full members until 2023 or be fired. The CSLEA did not immediately respond to multiple requests for comment from The Center Square regarding the petition. The CSLEA has roughly 7,000 members in 110 job classifications. The case was heard in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals earlier this year, where a three-judge panel ruled that the “maintenance of management” requirement did not violate the First Amendment. As previously reported by The Center Square, the Ninth Circuit Court panel ruled that the lifeguards “contractually consented to the maintenance of membership requirement.” “The Ninth Circuit’s giving a pass to so-called ‘maintenance of membership’ restrictions effectively gives union officials complete control over when public employees can exercise their rights to end union membership and cut off union dues deductions,” National Right to Work Foundation President Mark Mix said in a statement. “That erases not only the protections against all forced dues payments provided by Janus, but even older rulings that forbade union officials from forcing full union membership and payment for union political activities on public workers.”Staffattorneys from the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation represented the plaintiff in Janus v. AFSCME and are representing the lifeguards in this present case for free. Madison Hirneisen covers California for The Center Square.

By GREG BISHOP THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) – Crime statistics from the FBI show an upward trend in violent crime. Among those crimes on the rise in Illinois are police killed in the line of Dataduty.theFBI published in May shows the number of police feloniously killed across the country and by state. “2021 was a really bad year in the United States for police officers feloniously killed, there were 73 of them,” said Wirepoints Senior Editor Matt Rosenberg, who analyzed the data. “We had a 52% jump over the rolling yearly average in 2021.”Mr.Rosenberg called it a “great unraveling,” something he said has intensified in the past three years.“And we’re seeing it in Illinois,” Mr. Rosenberg told WMAY. “We had the 5th most felonious homicides in 2021 out of 50 states among law enforcement officers and if you look at the 10 year stretch, we rank No. 7 out of 50.” Illinois had 14 police officers killed in the line of duty over the past decade ending in 2021. The majority of those came in the last three years of data, which Mr. Rosenberg notes was during Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s term. Eight were in the last three years. Five were killed in 2021. In reviewing other violent crime stats, Mr. Rosenberg doesn’t see the trends relaxing. “Armed robberies, carjackings, crimes on transit in big cities, there are very worrisome things going on and it loops around and connects back with the violence towards police,” Mr. Rosenberg said.He was critical of Gov. Pritzker defending the controversial legislation becoming law Jan. 1 to reform the state’s system of bail.“This has occurred and spiked here in Illinois under Gov. J.B. Pritzker,” Mr. Rosenberg said. “He has signed and stoutly defended Democratic enacted state legislation in 2021 to abolish cash bail, decriminalize trespassing and to consider ending qualified immunity for police against lawsuits for just doing their job.” Gov. Pritzker’s Republican opponent Darren Bailey Wednesday released a plan to repeal the SAFE-T act that includes the Pre-Trial Fairness Act.“Though Governor Pritzker likes to claim that the law simply diverts low-level drug offenders from sitting in prison before trial, the fact is that the SAFE-T Act will put hardened criminals back on the street,” Mr. Bailey said in a statement.Lastmonth, state Rep. LaShawn Ford, D-Chicago, defended the SAFE-T Act and the cashless bail provision. He told Chicago AM 560 the discretion will be up to the judge, who he said he trusts will keep violent criminals in jail pretrial. The rest, he said, should be presumed innocent before trial and let go. “It costs taxpayers millions and billions of dollars over the years. Those people won’t be locked up in county jail anymore and taxpayers will be grateful for that,” Rep. Ford said.
Republican state Sen. Chapin Rose, R-Mahomet, said with an increase in crime, there are a slew of other problems with the bill. He doesn’t expect to turn bill sponsors into opponents.“Ifafewof these suburban Democrats who voted for it lose this election on the issue of crime, I think the Democrats that come back in the spring, their attitude would have changed greatly,” Sen.

Four separate lawsuits over the legality of abortion in Michigan are in the legal system. The state’s top court hasn’t yet ruled on it. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer welcomed the ruling. “This decision is likely to be challenged, and we know that there’s a group of extremists who will stop at nothing to ban abortion even in cases of rape and incest,” Gov. Whitmer said in a statement. “With our rights still hanging by a thread, the Michigan Supreme Court needs to provide certainty and rule on my lawsuit to protect the right to abortion in the state constitution.” In April, Planned Parenthood of Michigan sued Mr. Nessel to strike the 1931 law. Michigan GOP lawmakers allocated $750,000 to defend the law’s constitutionality. Separately, the MSC is expected to rule soon whether it will place an abortion rights proposal on the Nov. 8 ballot after the Michigan Board of State Canvassers deadlocked 2-2. GOP canvassers said that a line of the proposal appears to be missing spaces. The proposal aims to ask voters if they want to enshrine abortion rights into the state Constitution. Mr. Nessel urged the top court to add the Reproductive Freedom For All proposal to the ballot. “An overwhelming number of Michigan residents signed petitions in support of placing the question of abortion access on the ballot in November,” Mr. Nessel said in a statement. “Our state constitution provides the people with direct access to the democratic process and that access should not be limited by appointed individuals acting beyond the scope and authority of their duty.” of Claims unconstitutionalabortiondeclaresban
By SCOTT MCCLALLEN THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) –Michigan Court of Claims Judge Elizabeth Gleicher ruled the state’s 1931 law that bans abortion, triggered by the U.S. Supreme Court overturning the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade decision, is unconstitutional.JudgeGleicher said the law violates the Michigan Constitution’s Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses. “Despite that men play [a] necessary role in the procreative process, the law deprives only women of their ability to thrive as contributing participants in [the] world outside the home and as parents of wanted children,” Judge Gleicher wrote. Judge Gleicher’s injunction didn’t bar prosecutors from filing criminal abortion charges but instead told Attorney General Dana Nessel to advise Michigan county prosecutors that abortion is still Judgelegal.Gleicher’s ruling replaced a May preliminary injunction with a permanent ruling preventing Ms. Nessel from enforcing the law. Ms. Nessel has vowed she won’t enforce the abortion law. Attorney David Kallman, who represents Jackson County Prosecutor Jerard Jarzynka and Kent County Prosecutor Chris Becker, says that a Court of Claims judge has no authority over local county officials such as prosecutors.“Untilitgets appealed up to and either the Court of Appeals or the Supreme Court issues a ruling, it is not binding statewide” Mr. Kallman said of the ruling’s impact on county prosecutors.

(The Center Square) – Van Zandt County in northeast Texas is the 18th county to declare an invasion at the southern border. Its county commissioners and Judge Don Kirkpatrick signed a resolution expressing support for Gov. Greg Abbott “to take necessary action to stop the chaos on our border.”Theresolution states that “the health, safety, and welfare of Texas residents are under an imminent threat from the unprecedented levels of illegal immigration, human trafficking, and drug smuggling coming across the U.S. border from Mexico.” It states that since January 2021, “more than 3.2 million illegal aliens have been apprehended after unlawfully entering the United States, and more than 800,000 illegal aliens have avoided apprehension while unlawfully entering the United States and are unaccounted for in our nation.” It also points to more than 50 known terrorists who’ve unlawfully entered the U.S. since President Joe Biden’s been in office and the unprecedented amount of people and drugs being trafficking into the U.S. as a result of his policies.According to Aug. 15 U.S. Customs and Border Protection data, more than 80 terrorists on the Terrorist Watchlist have been encountered along the southern border since President Biden took office. During fiscal 2022 through July, 66 individuals on the watchlist were encountered, all non-U.S. citizens, more than fiscal years 2017-2021 combined.“Thesophisticated human trafficking and drug smuggling organizations that facilitate these criminal acts are spearheaded by international drug cartels who, at times, have operational control over the southern border,” the resolution states. “They not only threaten our citizens, but the citizens of various nations from which the trafficked victims originate.”
Tax-defaulted real property may be redeemed by payment of all unpaid taxes and assessments, together with the additional penalties and fees, as prescribed by law, or it may be redeemed under an installment plan of redemption. The amount to redeem, including all penalties and fees, as of September 2022, is shown opposite the parcel number and next to the name of the assessee.

“The ongoing immigration crisis on the Texas border,” the county commissioners argue, “is not acceptable and may constitute an invasion, having resulted in a security threat and humanitarian disaster with overwhelming consequences to the residents of Texas.” The commissioners refer to Section 433.005(a) of the Texas Government Code and Article 4, Section 7 of the Texas Constitution and request the “governor of Texas, as Commander-in-chief of the military forces of the States, take all necessary and legal steps to preserve and protect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Texas.” They also call on him to “act under the constitutional authority granted to him under Article 4, Section 7 of the Texas Constitution … and Article 1, Section 10, Clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution … to immediately prevent and/ or remove all persons trespassing as well as invading the sovereignty of Texas and that of the United States.” With their Aug. 31 decision, the judges and county commissioners of Van Zandt joined 17 judges and commissioners who’ve signed resolutions declaring an invasion at the southern border, all citing unprecedented levels of illegal immigration, human trafficking, and drug smuggling occurring in Texas as a result of Biden administration policies.Theyrepresent the counties of Atascosa, Chambers, Edwards, Ellis, Goliad, Hardin, Johnson, Kinney, Liberty, Live Oak, Orange, Parker, Presidio, Terrell, Tyler, Van Zandt, Wilson, and Wise. While the judges of Jeff Davis and Rockwall County have expressed support for declaring an invasion, their county commissioners haven’t. Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin is the only mayor to declare an invasion. Gov. Abbott has done more than any other governor to secure the border, the judges and county commissioners argue. However, they’re calling on him to use his full authority under the state and U.S. Constitution to do more. Gov. Abbott hasn’t declared an invasion but most recently directed state law enforcement officials to apprehend illegal border crossers and deliver them to ports of entry. He’s also the only Texas governor to build a wall on Texas soil.Since he launched the state’s border security mission, Operation Lone Star, a multi-agency effort has led to more than 300,800 apprehensions of foreign nationals illegally in Texas, more than 19,400 criminal arrests and more than 16,800 felony charges reported. Texas DPS has also seized over 335 million lethal doses of fentanyl, enough to kill nearly all adults and children in the U.S. These numbers exclude those of federal agencies.“Operation Lone Star continues to fill the dangerous gaps left by the Biden Administration’s refusal to secure the border,” Gov. Abbott said. “Every individual who is apprehended or arrested and every ounce of drugs seized would have otherwise made their way into communities across Texas and the nation due to President Biden’s open border policies.”TheRepublican Party of Texas has called on Gov. Abbott to “to take his commitment to defending our border a step farther, declare an invasion, and direct state officers to deliver illegal aliens back over the border,” Texas GOP Chairman Matt Rinaldi said when he announced the party’s own invasion declaration, “to defend the safety and sovereignty of our state.” Kinney County Attorney Brent Smith, who’s led the movement among the counties, told The Center Square “the significance of other counties also declaring an invasion cannot be overstated.”Everycounty is threatened “by the federal government’s abandonment of its constitutional duty,” Mr. Smith said, which is why he’s encouraging every county in Texas “to acknowledge the crisis is an invasion.” There are 254 counties in Texas. “If Texans don’t save Texas, no one will,” he said.

These policies mean that schools nationwide must comply with a series of pro-transgender policies in areas such as sports, housing, locker rooms and bathrooms if they want to continue receiving federal funds. While the circumstances may vary, a school could endanger its federal funding by refusing to use a student’s preferred pronouns or to let a biological male who identifies as a girl use female bathrooms and lockerCollegesrooms.using sex to assign dorm rooms or schools that do not let biological males compete against female athletes would likely fall afoul of the new federal funding requirements.
The Department of Education said earlier this year that it “will enforce Title IX’s prohibition on discrimination on the basis of sex to include: (1) discrimination based on sexual orientation; and (2) discrimination based on gender identity.”Thisnew interpretation could have major implications for schools, and critics say the Biden administration has reinterpreted Title IX law to fit an ideological agenda.“TheDepartment’s attempt to redefine ‘sex’ by regulatory fiat, and to include sexual orientation and gender identity under that term, perverts and undermines the original purpose of the law,” the letter said. Now, the Education Department is pushing through a rule that would further codify controversial changes to Title IX. The DOE said it is likely that “the current regulations do not best fulfill the requirement of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX) that schools and institutions that receive Federal financial assistance discriminationeliminateonthe basis of sex in their education programs or Activities.“TheDepartment therefore proposes that the current regulations should be amended to provide greater clarity regarding the scope of sex discrimination, including recipients’ obligations not to discriminate based on sex stereotypes, sex characteristics,

By CASEY HARPER THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) – Several lawmakers are urging the U.S. Department of Education to rescind a proposed rule that would tie billions of dollars in federal education funding to an array of LGBT mandates. A dozen Republican lawmakers signed a letter to the department, led by Rep. Bob Good, R-Va., and obtained by The Center Square, saying that many “colleges would be forced to choose between losing their federal funding and contradicting their beliefs by adopting policies and curricula that includes ideological teaching about sexual orientation and gender identity.”

The Department of Education made clear it wants the gender and sexuality changes to have impacts for all ages. “Further, the Department proposes that the current regulations could better account for the variety of education programs or activities covered by Title IX, which include recipients’ education programs or activities serving students in elementary schools, secondary schools, and postsecondary institutions,” DOE added.Republican lawmakers pointed to the proposed changes, saying it will force schools to choose between funding and their values.“This proposed rule would hamstring schools by conditioning federal student aid eligibility, including Pell Grant eligibility, on an institution’s acceptance of radical leftist policies,” the letter said. “The new proposed rule would condition federal student aid funds on the recipient institution’s compliance with the new rule.” The effort began when President Joe Biden issued an executive order almost immediately upon taking office, and the change is part of an administration-wide effort to implement a range of LGBT mandates via federal agencies. For instance, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said in May that it will change how it interprets Title IX prohibitions on discrimination based on sex “to include discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.” That means things like funding that helps students from low-income families eat lunch at school would be jeopardized unless schools toe the“Asline.aresult, state and local agencies, program operators and sponsors that receive funds from [Food and Nutrition Service] must investigate allegations of discrimination based on gender identity or sexual orientation,” USDA said in a statement. “Those organizations must also update their nondiscrimination policies and signage to include prohibitions against discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation.”
The lawmakers also argue the policy could have serious consequences for religious institutions.“UnderTitle IX, faith-based organizations are entitled to a waiver from the law’s requirements in order to preserve their ability to act according to sincerely held beliefs. We worry that any attempt to impose these unnecessary regulations would result in religious organizations being punished for holding beliefs that differ from the extreme sex and gender ideology held by this administration.“Theproposed rule is destined to hurt countless students and institutions seeking high-quality Education,” the letter added.

Princess Elizabeth Alexandra Mary on April 21, 1926 in Mayfair, London. The future queen made her first public speech at age 14 when she went on the BBC Children’s Hour on the radio and reassured children who had been separated from their parents during the Blitz during World War II.Princess Elizabeth married Prince Philip Mountbatten of Greece and Denmark on Nov. 20, 1947, at Westminster Abbey. She gave birth to Charles, the Prince of Wales, in 1948. Two years later, Elizabeth and Philip’s second child, Anne, the Princess Royal, wasOnborn.Feb. 16, 1952, Elizabeth’s father, King George VI, died, and she became queen at age 25. Her first prime minister was Winston Churchill, and her coronation — the first one in Britain’s history to be seen in the brand new medium of television, thanks to insistence by Prince Philip — took place June 2, 1953, at Westminster Abbey. Afterward, Elizabeth started her long era of travels, beginning with a tour of the Commonwealth. She gave birth to Prince Andrew in 1960 and Prince Edward in 1964, the year Elizabeth made history by visiting West Germany. She was the first British monarch to go to Germany in 52 years. In 1977, the queen celebrated her Silver Jubilee. And her Golden Jubilee in 2002. In 2015, she outlived all previous British monarchs. The previous record holder was Queen Victoria.Twoyears later, Queen Elizabeth II became the first monarch to celebrate a Sapphire Jubilee. That marked 65 years on theThatthrone.was followed this year for her Platinum Jubilee. That was for 70Ms.years.Smith, the author of the previously mentioned book about the queen, talked about Her Majesty in a 2012 appearance before the Channel City Club in Santa Barbara. “I was able to meet the queen on three social occasions, so I saw her in relaxed and private settings,” Ms. Smith told the NewsPress.“She was funny, humble, downto-earth, very expressive — she talks like an Italian, frequently waving her arms — highly observant, serene and caring,” Ms. Smith said during the 2012 interview.Shesaid that at Balmoral Castle, the queen tried to live as normal a life as “Elizabethpossible.is known there as a country woman,” Ms. Smith told the News-Press. “She likes to entertain informally and afterward puts on a yellow rubber glove and does the dishes.” This year, Her Majesty celebrated her 96th birthday at Sandringham, her country estate inBritain’sNorfolk. longest-reigning monarch is survived by her three sons and daughter, eight grandchildren including Prince William (the next heir) and Prince Harry and 12 great-grandchildren — including Prince Harry and Meghan’s children (and two of Princess Diana’s grandchildren): Archie Mountbatten-Windsor and Lilibet Diana MountbattenWindsor.Shewas named “Lilibet” after her great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II. And under a 1917 decision by King George V, because Prince Harry is now the son of a sovereign (King Charles III), Archie and Lilibet are now Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

HIKER Continued from Page A1 Man had gone in search of supplies, help and permanence, someone with a blend of royal elegance and a down-to-earth style that endeared her to the world. Prime ministers met with her weekly in private sessions to keep her updated on the government, and she addressed the British Parliament on the opening day of its sessions. On the West Coast, a throne was kept at the British Columbia parliament in Victoria, Canada, for the queen’s visits before that legislative body. In addition to Britain, Queen Elizabeth served as the sovereign of more than a dozen Commonwealth countries that became independent from Britain but chose to keep the ceremonial ties. Among them are Canada, New Zealand and Australia. In those countries and around the world, Her Majesty remained popular.Queen Elizabeth is warmly remembered by those who saw her when she visited the Santa Barbara area on March 1, 1983. Among her stops was the Santa Barbara Mission, where she met with Father Virgil Cordano on a stormy day. “We saw her,” said JoAnn Cota, who along with her sister-in-law Joan Cota, was working at the mission’s gift shop. “We were able to be there when she went on tour, and she planted a tree (in the mission’s cemetery).

THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) – A Clark County politician is in police custody for allegedly stabbing to death an investigative journalist largely credited with the Democrat’s primary loss. Las Vegas Police announced Wednesday night they had taken a suspect into custody in connection to the stabbing death of Las Vegas Review-Journal investigative reporter Jeff German. Multiple reporters were on the scene when police entered the home of Clark County Public Administrator Robert Telles, taking him out on a stretcher for suspicion of Mr. German’s murder. Clark County Sheriff Joe Lombardo confirmed to the Review-Journal Mr. Telles was the suspect of interest in the investigation into Mr. German’s death.Hours earlier, the ReviewJournal reported police executed a search warrant at Mr. Telles’ home.Onthe morning of Sept. 3, LVPD found a man later confirmed to be Mr. German unresponsive outside of a home. Police said they were searching for a red GMC Yukon, of which video from outside of Mr. Telles’ home showed him standing next to an SUV matching that description. “We take this case very seriously and our investigators have been working non-stop to identify and apprehend the suspect,” said LVPD Captain Dori Koren in a news release. “We enacted our Major Case Protocol immediately following our initial response and are using all LVMPD resources to maximize the progress of this investigation.”Mr.German, a veteran investigative journalist, had uncovered a hostile work environment under Mr. Telles, which was made worse by a relationship the 45-year-old Democrat had been conducting with a woman at his office. The stories, published earlier this year, are widely seen as the reason for his third-place finish in the state’s June primary election for Clark County administrator.

“She was lovely,” JoAnn, who stopped working in the gift shop in 2020, told the News-Press Thursday. “She was very kind and friendly.”Thequeen was accompanied at the mission by Prince Philip and President Ronald Reagan and first lady Nancy Reagan. “They brought bloodhounds through the Mission before she entered (for security), and we watched the queen plant a tree in the cemetery,” said Joan, who continues to work at the gift shop. “She was mostly talking to Father Virgil,” JoAnn said. The queen, prince and the Reagans also went to the Santa Barbara County Courthouse, where a large crowd gathered to see Her Majesty unveil a plaque marking her visit. Among them was Santa Barbara resident Judith Hill, who told the News-Press Thursday she was excited to be among the thousands to see the queen. “We all were, the whole crowd was,” Ms. Hill said. “It was a very enthusiastic crowd. “There was also a crowd at the (Santa Barbara) airport to meet her and her husband as well,” Ms. HillTheysaid.arrived on one of Santa Barbara’s worst days for rain. “She’s a real trouper and a good sport,” Mike Deaver, President Reagan’s deputy chief of staff, told the News-Press at the time. Mr. Deaver accompanied the queen on herQueentour. Elizabeth and Prince Philip were in Santa Barbara County for six hours and 12 minutes. Half of that was in cars, according to a 1983 News-Press story. The rain was so bad that the royal couple almost didn’t make it to Santa Barbara. The couple was flying from Long Beach, and the route to the Long Beach Airport — the Long Beach freeway — was flooded.Thequeen, who was known for her tenacity throughout her reign, refused to give up. She insisted on going to Santa Barbara. “So that’s when we sent for the Navy bus,” Mr. Deaver told the News-Press.Thequeen and Prince Philip rode that to get through the flooded freeway to catch their flight from Long Beach to Santa Barbara. The queen sat next to the busApparentlydriver. just as stubborn as the queen was President Reagan, who made certain that, despite the storm, the royal couple could have lunch with him and Nancy at the Reagans’ ranch — Rancho del Cielo — northwest of Santa Barbara.Sowhen they reached a turnoff from Highway 101 at Refugio Road (which had hairpin turns and no guardrails), the queen left her limousine for a four-wheel drive vehicle. Her Majesty donned boots and a raincoat and remained determined to go to the ranch. At lunch, the Reagans, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip enjoyed a meal of tacos, enchiladas and refried beans. “Afterward, the queen said, ‘That was so enjoyable, especially the used beans,’” said Sally Bedell Smith, author of “Elizabeth: The Life of a Modern Monarch” (2012, Random House). At the Reagans’ ranch or beforehand, the wet weather didn’t dampen the queen’s spirits. Before the big crowd at the courthouse, Her Majesty flashed a warm smile before thousands. It was the kind of warmth that stayed with her during a long life of Queenservice.Elizabeth II was born

Sagittarius: You’ve probably had a busy week, Sagittarius, and may feel out of sorts today. Perhaps you had too much good food last night, stayed up too late, or both. It goes against your grain to stay in and rest, but this is the perfect day to curl up with a good book. You’re going to want some exercise, but don’t overdo it.
SUDOKU
Aquarius: Too much indulging may leave you with a headache or stomachache to the point where you may want to spend most of today sleeping. The stress of this condition could cause you to snap at family members but remember that they weren’t the ones who chose to overindulge.

Pisces: You like to be honest with those you care about, but today you’re likely to be a bit too honest. Don’t be too quick to take offense and watch the tendency to be too blunt. If you temper your honesty with some diplomacy, you should get your message across with a minimum of hurt feelings.

Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the Remembergrid. 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.

Cancer: You could be feeling a bit antsy today and may want to spend time exercising or trying a new sport or game that you’ve never played before. This is great. Ask some friends to join you, if possible. Don’t push yourself past your limits. This can only bring exhaustion or injury, and it won’t help your fitness level.

Virgo: A friend could ask for a loan and you might hesitate to give him or her the money. Follow your instincts. The person probably isn’t too savvy about money. You might want to participate in some group activities, but don’t let people take unfair advantage of you. You’re willing to serve those who need you but discriminate between those who do and don’t really need your help.

Capricorn: There might be a lot of work to do at home today. Since certain family members are conveniently absent, you may feel that the burden falls on you. Don’t be a martyr, however. Just do what you can and leave the rest. Uncertainties about money could also be on your mind but put these aside for now.
Gemini: Don’t be surprised if lots of people contact you today. Perhaps you’re in the mood to gossip or neighbors have news of changes nearby. You should be brimming with energy, so you can handle it, but you might find it a bit unnerving if communication gets too hectic.
THAT SCRAMBLED WORD GAME By David L. Hoyt and Jeff Knurek
Taurus: You might have to do a lot of running around when you probably want to stay home. Obligations to friends and family are likely to come up, and even though you’re a bit tired you’ll want to help out. The best plan for today is to get everything done as quickly as possible and then spend the rest of the day relaxing alone.
Don’t let your insecurity get the better of you.
Leo: An communicationexcitingcould inform you of an advancement opportunity that you should explore. While you’d be quick to act under normal circumstances, Leo, today you might be more cautious. You’ve sought recognition for a while, so don’t be too reticent.

Scorpio: Frustration may be the word for today, Scorpio. You could be experiencing a bit of wanderlust. Distant states and foreign lands may beckon to you, but circumstances could make it hard for you to get away. There might also be friction with your partner. Don’t get sucked into a quarrel. Use your placid nature to get grounded, then use your practicality to solve the issues at hand.
