When it comes right down to it, the intricate, precise dance steps performed by horse and rider during dressage, guided by their intimate connection, is nothing short of “ballet for horses.” At least that’s how Gina von de Burg describes it. And she should know, since she’s the show chair for the Santa Barbara County Chapter of the California Dressage Society. And what a show it was this past weekend at the Earl Warren Showgrounds, as 82 riders and horses mesmerized about 200 spectators on Saturday and again on“ItSunday.really went well. I mean really well,” Ms. von de Burg told the News-Press. “It was ecstatic here at the Earl Warren Showgrounds.”Anditdidn’thurt that Mother Nature played her usual part in setting the stage. “It is so beautiful here in Santa Barbara,” Ms. von de Burg said.

Poll: Americans don’t expect inflation Reduction Act to reduce inflation

By CASEY HARPER THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) – The majority of registered voters don’t expect the Inflation Reduction Act to actually reduce inflation, according to a new poll.AMorning Consult/Politico survey reports that only 24% of those surveyed expect the $740 billion climate, tax and health care bill to reduce inflation while 34% said it will make inflationPresidentworse.Joe Biden signed the legislation Monday, which includes tens of billions of dollars in renewable energy investments as well as an Obamacare authorizationexpansion,forMedicare to negotiate certain drug prices, and a $35 per month cap on insulin copays, among other measures.Mosteconomists say the measure will not curb inflation despite its Supportersname.ofthe bill argue it will lower inflation by reducing deficit spending, which is in part paid for by a 15% minimum tax on companies with more than a billion dollars in revenue as well as a hiring spree of IRS auditors. The survey also asked: “As you may know, inflation rose 8.5% in July compared to a year ago, but slowed to 0% on a month-tomonth basis, as consumer prices held steady since June. To what extent do you think each of the following is responsible for the increasing inflation in the U.S. economy?”Whenasked if the Biden administration was responsible, 38% said the administration is “very responsible” and another 21% said “somewhat responsible.” The poll found 16% said the Biden administration was “not too responsible” and 15% said the administration was “not responsible at all.”

By CASEY HARPER THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) – Harvard Professor and former Chair of President Barack Obama’s Council of Economic Advisors Jason Furman says that forgiving student debt “benefits recent college grads and hurts most everyone else, both rich and poor.”President Joe Biden has considered forgiving $10,000 of student debt per borrower. Dr. Furman argued that taxpayers will be left on the hook for the federal“Studentspending.loanrelief is not free,” Dr. Furman wrote on Twitter. “It would be paid for. Part of it would be paid for by the 87% of Americans who do not benefit but lose out from inflation. Part of it would be paid for by future spending cuts [and] tax increases – with uncertainty about who will bear those costs.”

The warning comes as President Biden’s window to once again suspend student loan repayment is closing. President Biden’s previous suspension of student debt repayments expires at the end of the month, and the president has yet to announce whether he is once again going to defer payments or if students will be on the hook for their debt.

By NEIL HARTSTEIN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

U.S. Department of Education Secretary Miguel Cardona said last week that a decision is comingFormer“soon.”President Donald Trump first suspended the payments because of COVID19 in March of 2020, and that suspension, which has been extended several times, is now set to expire again. Interest does not accrue on the debt while payments are frozen. “Student loan relief would lead some people to spend more,” said Dr. Furman, who is also a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics. “We can’t make more so others would consume less. The way that happens is inflation. Budget constraint. If you add hundreds of billions to the deficit, eventually taxes will rise or spending will be cut. Or some tax cut or spending increases that could have happened won’t. Either way a cost. A full evaluation of student loan relief would take this into account. You might still like it – it benefits recent college grads and hurts most everyone else, both rich and poor. But don’t assume it is ‘free’ money – it is not.” Other experts argue that the federal spending will undermine the deficit cuts in the Inflation Reduction Act that proponents argued would lower inflation. “Simply extending the current repayment pause through the end of the year would cost $20 billion – equivalent to the total deficit reduction from the first six years of the IRA, by our rough estimates,” the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget said in a statement. “Canceling $10,000 per person of student debt for households making below $300,000 a year would cost roughly $230 billion. Combined, these policies would consume nearly ten years of deficit reduction from the Inflation Reduction Act.”

“Dressage is like ballet for horses, and when you put music to that” the result is pure equestrian magic, Ms. von de Burg said. “The connection between horse and rider is so intimate at the upper levels,” she said, “that the rider literally thinks of a movement and their body responds and it goes right down to the horse and it responds accordingly. It’s so subtle that spectators can’t even see it. It’s such a delicate thing.” The show is rated by the United States Equestrian Federation, the California Dressage Society and the United States Dressage Federation.Dressage is known as a horse discipline that develops a gradual harmonious physical and mental relationship between horse and rider. It is one of the Olympic sports, and one of its oldest traditions is the Lipizzaner stallions of the Spanish Riding School in Vienna. Its beauty is that it can be practiced by any discipline or breed of horse from beginner to Olympic level, according to dressage enthusiasts. The Santa Barbara County Chapter of the California Dressage Society was created to bolster interest in the activity. The chapter’s program is educational and is designed primarily to offer a framework in which individuals can progress with the schooling of themselves and their horses. Activities such as riding clinics, dressage shows and education are directed toward a better general understanding of dressage. The Earl Warren Showgrounds, the 19th District Agricultural Association, was created in 1955 to house the National Horse Show and remains a cornerstone in enabling the Santa Barbara and surrounding communities to celebrate and experience the area’s agricultural and equestrian history.Theshowgrounds also serve as a key location for the care and safekeeping of animals in the event of wildfires and natural disasters. It is the only local facility that can provide space for more than 1,000 large animals.

Numerous events planned for Pride Week

Candidates for Illinois governor appeal to

Still no prosecution of Pritzker-connected work comp fraud allegations

By ANDREW HENSEL THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) – With about 80 days until Illinois’ gubernatorial election, the major party candidates are laying out their plans for if they are elected. The Illinois State Fair hosted its political days this past week with GOP leaders and Democrats showing off their candidates for the November election. The separate headliners were GOP gubernatorial nominee Darren Bailey and incumbent Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker. The Democrats had their day on Wednesday as Gov. Pritzker touted what he said were accomplishments in hopes of gaining more support for the November election. “Which party balanced the state budget for the last four years? Democrats. Which party eliminated the bill backlog and got six credit upgrades? Democrats,” Gov. Pritzker said. Gov. Pritzker said his work is not over yet. “Our work is far from over. To protect our fundamental freedoms and fight for hardworking families, we have to elect pro-labor, pro-choice, pro-voting rights, and pro-civil rights candidates up and down the ballot,” Gov. Pritzker said. Mr. Bailey, a Republican state senator from Xenia, spoke to a crowd of Illinois Republicans the following day and criticized the Pritzker administration.“Inflationisout of control, and jobs are not coming back [in Illinois] the way they are everywhere else. Corruption is rampant. Companies are leaving. Families are leaving,” Mr. Bailey said. “Some people are throwing their hands up and giving up.” While some may be throwing their hands up, Republicans are using them to make changes, Mr. Bailey said. “I mentioned your hands earlier. Look at them again. You and I are hands-on people. We fix problems all day long,” Mr. Bailey said. “Now, we must turn our attention to fixing this greatGov.state.”Pritzker, who is seeking a second term, said Republicans have not been truthful and will tell the people anything they want to try and“Thewin.lunatic fringe has taken over their party,” Gov. Pritzker said. “They will say anything, do anything, destroy anything to get elected.”Thegeneral election will be held on Nov. 8. voters with 80 days before election

THE CENTER SQUARE CONTRIBUTOR (The Center Square) – Within three months of Florida’s new election fraud unit being formed, Gov. Ron DeSantis announced on Thursday that 20 individuals had been charged and the state was in the process of arresting them for allegedly voting illegally.Earlier this year, the state legislature passed an election integrity bill that Gov. DeSantis signed into law in May, which among other things created a new state Office of Election Crimes and Security. The office opened July 1 and is the first of its kind in state government, Gov. DeSantis said. The office’s new staff began investigating alleged election fraud statewide, working with the Attorney General’s office and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.“In2020,Florida ran an efficient, transparent election that avoided the major problems we saw in other states. At the same time, the election was not perfect, which is why we continue our efforts to ensure the integrity of our elections,” Gov. DeSantis said. “Our new election crimes office has sprung into action to hold individuals accountable for voter fraud. Today’s actions send a clear signal to those who are thinking about ballot harvesting or fraudulently voting. If you commit an elections crime, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”The 20 individuals charged Thursday who allegedly voted illegally had been convicted of either murder or a felony sexual offense. Most convicted felons in Florida who’ve served their sentence, were successfully paroled, and passed their probation period can have their voting rights restored under Amendment 4. The amendment became law after Florida voters passed it in a November 2018 ballot proposition. Both state law and Amendment 4 specifically prohibit convicted murderers and sexual offenders from voting even after they’ve served their sentence, been paroled and their probation period ends.The 20 individuals were charged with committing a third-degree felony, which carries up to a $5,000 fine and up to five years in prison.

Democratic candidate for governor, tweeted, “Getting word that DeSantis may be taking over or interfering with the Broward County Supervisor of Elections Office in the middle of an election. If true, he better have a [expletive] good reason for it. And you know he won’t.”Theindividuals who allegedly committed voter fraud did so in Palm Beach, Broward and MiamiDade counties, “although there are others in other parts of the state,” Gov. DeSantis said. “These folks voted illegally because they’d been convicted of murder or sexual assault. They do not have the right to vote … under Florida law.” Gov. DeSantis noted that in the last two legislative sessions, “we’ve done more on election integrity than any state in the country,” referring to prohibitions on ballot harvesting, changes to absentee ballot requirements, banning “Zuckerbucks,” referring to hundreds of millions of dollars spent by a nonprofit created by Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg on the 2020 election, among others.

“As elected leaders, it is incumbent on us to ensure free and fair elections and instill confidence in the voting process,” said Attorney General Ashley Moody, who joined Gov. DeSantis at a press event held in Broward County on Thursday. “No voting system can stand without the backing and confidence of the people it serves, and thanks to Governor DeSantis, we are reinforcing that trust, and Florida’s elections system will serve as the standardbearer for the rest of the nation.” State Commissioner of Agriculture Nikki Fried, a

By GREG BISHOP THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) – Despite Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul’s insistence that his office “referred” a politically sensitive allegation of workers’ compensation fraud to an appellate prosecutor, no such order has been issued by a court.Jenny Thornley faces criminal charges alleging overtime fraud from her time at the Illinois State Police Merit Board. A civil lawsuit now unsealed and on appeal alleges workers’ compensation fraud with claims Ms. Thornley invoked Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s office and received around $70,000 in disability benefits based on unfounded sexual assault allegations.Documents show Mr. Raoul’s office giving different reasons why they’re not prosecuting the case. Wednesday, at the Illinois State Fair, Mr. Raoul doubled down on the latest reason. “We are conflicted out,” Mr. Raoul told The Center Square. “There’s only so many times I can sayDocumentsthat.” show Mr. Raoul’s office telling the Sangamon County state’s attorney they didn’t have original jurisdiction in the case. In the civil lawsuit, Mr. Raoul’s office motioned for dismissal, saying they investigated the case and it’s not worth the state’s time. Last month, Mr. Raoul said there was a “typical conflict,” and they referred the case to the special prosecutor. “And so, that’s it, there’s nothing else to be said on that,” Mr. Raoul said. “Thank you for your questions.”Mr.Raoul refused to answer further questions. Last month, an email The Center Square obtained from the appellate prosecutor’s office to the attorney general’s office said they had not been ordered by a court to take any workers’ comp fraud allegations. As of Thursday, no court order has been issued appointing a special prosecutor to the case.

By KIM JARRETT THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) - U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski is besting her Trump-backed opponent in a bid to hold on to her seat, according to figures released on Wednesday afternoon by the Alaska Division of Elections.Ms.Murkowski received 44.1% of first-place votes in Alaska’s first major test of ranked-choice voting. Her opponent, government administrator Kelly Tshibaka, has received 39.2% of firstplace votes. Both will be on the Nov. 8 ballot, with two other candidates yet to be determined. Eighteen candidates signed up to challenge Ms. Murkowski. With ranked-choice voting, the top four vote getters in any race advance to the next level regardless of political party. In the race to fill the unexpired term of the late U.S. Rep. Don Young, Democrat Mary Peltola leads her two Republican challengers with 38% of the firstplace votes. Former Gov. Sarah Palin has just short of 32% of the first-place votes, with Nick Begich holding 27%. The winner will serve out the final few months of Rep. Young’s term.Inthe race for a full two-year term in Congress, Ms. Peltola also leads with 35.2% of firstplace votes to Ms. Palin’s 31% and Mr. Begich’s 27%. The top four advance to the Nov. 8 general election. Gov. Mike Dunleavy leads his competitors with 41.8% of the first-place votes. Former Gov. Bill Walker, who is running as an independent, has 22.1% of the first-place votes, while Democrat Les Gara has nearly 22%. In November, a candidate will need a simple majority to win. If no candidate receives a simple majority, the candidate with the fewest votes will be eliminated, and voters who selected the eliminated candidate as their first choice have their votes redistributed to their second choices.

Murkowski retains top spot in Alaska’s U.S. Senate race

Republican attorney general candidate Tom DeVore said Thursday that Mr. Raoul is deflecting to protect Gov. Pritzker and doubts the incumbent will request the courts to appoint a special prosecutor. “If he files that motion, he has to tell the court what his conflict is because the judge won’t appoint the appellate prosecutor unless the court is satisfied there’s a conflict,” Mr. DeVore told The Center Square. “What is the conflict? There isn’t one. He can tell you guys that all he wants. But there isn’t one and he won’t file the motion because the court won’t buy it.” State Sen. John Curran, RLemont, said the lack of action is troubling.“Whenyou see this level of inconsistency coming from the highest levels of state government on this Thornley issue, at some point it is my hope that the federal authorities step in and conduct a full and thorough investigation,” Sen. Curran told The Center Square.

After new fraud unit launches, 20 felons charged in Florida with election fraud

After the new office was created, Gov. DeSantis said, “some people said, ‘there’s no voter fraud.’ Well I’m here to say that [staff in the new office] got to work … to hold people accountable who violated our election laws. The alleged felony voters were only one class of voters that violated the law, he said. Investigations are ongoing, for example, of individuals who’ve voted in two jurisdictions, as well as “folks who are voting who are illegal aliens” who don’t have the right to vote because they aren’t U.S. citizens.

Earlier this year, the state legislature passed an election integrity bill that Gov. DeSantis signed into law in May, which among other things created a new state Office of Election Crimes and Security. The office opened July 1 and is the first of its kind in state government, Gov. DeSantis said.

Gov. DeSantis also instructed the state Department of State to send formal notifications to all 67 county Supervisors of Elections to preserve 2020 election records until additional reviews and investigations are completed.

“We did all the right things tonight. This is a very, very talented group of players and we added three or four playmakers,” said UCSB Head Coach Tim Vom Steeg. “(Alexis) Ledoux was much more comfortable today than in last week’s scrimmage at San Jose State. What separates him is his unbelievable work rate, attacking the ball on both sides. He’s a difference-maker.”TheGauchosput on a display on the offensive end, showcasing new talent that looked to fit in seamlessly with last year’s Big West half,awayforward11roster,Championship-winningwhichreturns10ofitsstartersin2022.SophomoreSalvadorAguilartuckedtwoheadersinthesecondwhilejuniorforwardFinn

“While it doesn’t feel like we took a step forward tonight, we absolutely did,” said Westmont head coach Dave Wolf on the night he officially began his final season. “I’ve got to make sure that this team sees the progress we made tonight. Training camp still has a week to go. The regular season doesn’t start until September.“Abraham wasn’t originally scheduled to get the start tonight, and he had to make a very quick adjustment,” reflected Wolf. “Abraham responded really well to the short notice and responded really well in this environment. That’s a credit to him being mentally sharp and having a strong next-man-up mentality.”

The real fireworks took place in the fourth quarter. After Burbank managed to tie the game up at 19, the score remained locked as the clock wound down to nine seconds. At that point, Dos Pueblos found themselves with the ball on Burbank’s 37 yard line, just a few yards from field goal range. Marsh took the snap, scrambling from the pocket and shaking off two defenders before sidearming a 10-yard pass to Daniel Johnson, who ran out of bounds to stop the clock at one second. The play allowed Tripathi to connect on a 41-yard field goal to capture a last second victory.

The Carpinteria High football dropped a game to Calvary Chapel on Friday, losing 25-0.Apair of early turnovers put Carpinteria down 14-0, setting the stage for the resounding defeat.Quarterback Talon Trumble went 6-for15 passing, accruing 78 yards while rushing for 58 more on 16 carries. Sawyer Kelly and Sebastian Hernandez each had two catches for 35 and 28 yards, respectively. Matt Munoz contributed 67 total yards on kickoff returns and an interception, while Israel Samaguey caused a fumble that was recovered by Gabriel Flores.

UCSB’s Ledoux looked extremely comfortable in his first match, beating defenders with a combination of agility and precision that demonstrated why head coach Tim Vom Steeg believes he will be a key contributor in his first season with the team. His well-placed corner as the clock reached 42 minutes nearly led to an own goal as the ball ping ponged off several players. Senior defender Henry Davies was in the right place to direct it towards Ballard McBride on the goal line, who contorted his body to knock in the first goal of theThenight.Gauchos kept the pressure on high coming out of the break, while the Warriors patiently waited for opportunities to break. Westmont did end up with several great chances to score with numbers on the counter, but some indecisiveness combined with great hustle by the Gaucho defense would see the attacks break down. In the 55th, the Gauchos cut through the Westmont defense with Thaabit Baartman finding Pablo Figueroa on the left wing. His first touch cross with the left foot could not have been better served, and Aguilar’s run down the middle of the box ended with an unstoppable header to double UCSB’s lead. Less than four minutes later, UCSB made it look easy once more. A slick one-two combination saw redshirt sophomore midfielder Lucas Gonzalez set up senior defender Rigoberto Barragan with space on the byline to send in another excellent, firsttime ball that found the head of sophomore midfielder Filip Basili. Basili’s first attempt caromed down off the crossbar, but he was the first to the rebound and calmly headed it away from traffic and in to make it 3-0. Barragan would eventually get his assist in the 77th minute, sending it into Aguilar whose perfect positioning outside the 6yard box allowed him to turn and redirect his shot far post to secure his“Ibrace.liked a lot about our team tonight,” said Westmont’s Wolf. “The one piece I didn’t like was the fact that we didn’t capitalize on chances to hurt them.

The UC Santa Barbara men’s soccer team returned to Harder Stadium Saturday night for its season-opening Community Shield Game with Westmont, putting away three second half goals to take a 4-0 win in the annual exhibition.

Ballard McBride opened the scoring in the 43rd minute and newcomer Filip Basili added another in the 58th. “It was very important for us to start well on this field, with this atmosphere and with all of the fans coming out,” sophomore Alexis Ledoux said. “The team today had the perfect mentality and we were able to perform and score four goals. I’m very happy for the UCSBteam.”dominated possession from the outset and could have easily put up more than four goals with a number of excellent chances in the early going. Three outstanding saves by Westmont goalkeeper Abraham Arteaga in the first 11 minutes kept things level at 0-0. Arteaga went into halftime with six saves, four coming on shots by UCSB’s talented French forward Ledoux.

in supporting families in crisis,” she said. “With this in mind, an expert was brought in to provide tools for self-care, finding a healthy balance, and setting boundaries so that these caring individuals do not become overwhelmed and burnt out in their desire to pay it forward.“Atthe conclusion of the meeting, the group was encouraged to lean on one another as we move forward to build a stronger, more engaged community that has access to supports and resources, and never feels the devastation and isolation that the LGS diagnosis so often brings,” Ms. Griffin told the News-Press. Those with LGS often experience gastrointestinal issues, constipation and diarrhea. Some are tube-fed, and most are not sleeping. Kids wake often throughout the night.

In fact, anyone with the rare disease Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome, or any caregiver of someone with this disease, knows the loneliness of Ms.isolation.Griffin is not only a caregiver for her 20-year-old son Theo, who has LSG, but also serves as the director of family support at The Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome Foundation.LGSisa“severe epilepsy which develops in early childhood and is characterized by more than one seizure type … In my son’s case, he started his kind of a classic LGS story of infantile spasms at 3 years old,” Ms. Griffin told the News-Press.“Nooneis born with LGS,” she continued. “Some have a genetic cause or mutation. “Some have a birth injury or brain injury. There are some who have infant cancer and after chemo started having seizures,” she said. “Genetic mutations count for a large percentage of seizures. The cause is unknown for 10% of seizures.“Alotof people are finally finding out why their kids have seizures. A large percentage is due to genetics, which is revealed by genetic testing,” Ms. Griffin explained. “With my son, there is no known cause. Everything structurally looks normal in his MRI. Those with LGS can experience hundreds of seizures a day.”TheLGS Foundation was recently one of 30 advocacy organizations awarded a grant from Horizon Therapeutics’ inaugural #RAREis Global Advocate Grant, a new program designed to support the rare disease community by providing $5,000 grants to U.S. and global patient advocacy groups working to advance, educate and address the needs of the community.

“Theo is doing well now in that he has less than five seizures a day. That’s what you would call an improvement. My son requires assistance with ADLs (Activities of Daily Living),” said Ms. Griffin. Those with LGS have a higher than average mortality rate. They can’t be left alone. Head injuries are the leading cause of death. Another primary cause of death is something called SUDEP (Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy). “Theo is non-verbal, muscular and strong, with a high pain tolerance,” said Ms. Griffin. “I’ve looked down before and seen broken bones. One time I sent him to school, and the teacher called and said he got to school with a broken finger. Our kids wear helmets with face masks.” For those who are higherfunctioning that can walk and talk, there are behavioral challenges including self-injury or injury to others. Ms. Griffin, a single mom sharing custody with Theo’s dad, also pointed out the condition can have a real impact on family, siblings and caregivers. “Theo is a two-person job, not a one-person job. I manage but I have to be super careful. Theo is 20 years old, 5 feet 10 inches, 160 pounds, while I am 5 feet 4 inches, 130 pounds” she said. Caregivers can experience chronic traumatic stress. “Theo can be at his dad’s, and I can sit up thinking I heard a seizure,” said Ms. Griffin. “You are always primed and ready for the next seizure. When your child has significant needs, parents think self-care is selfish. But what I need is to make sure that I’m OK, so that I can continue caregiving for my son.” Ms. Griffin discussed her work with the LGS Foundation.

“People think of people with disabilities as being able to maybe hold a job packing groceries or walking a dog. Theo can’t work at all. He needs constant care,” she said. But she added, “I hate it when people look at Theo and our lives and feel sorry for us. I want Theo to be happy, I want people to care about him, not just for him. It’s really sad that people with severe disabilities are looked at as objects of pity.” But Ms. Griffin has also seen compassion. “ I don’t hide.

M any people love their dogs (as I do), and have art related to a certain breed. One fine day, at an appraisal in Hollywood, I brought my dachshund Bear (he fits his name, small but powerful, and he knows his own mind), and my client allowed him into her fabulous high rise, and the relationship between my client, who loved dachshunds, and me, who had three generations of dachshunds, began. I was thrilled to find, after I wrote her appraisal, that she sent me a little mid-century painting - a gouache on paper, of a dachshund on a chair, a mid-century ladder back. How the dachshund got upon the seat we will never know. It is a chair as tall as he is wide in the little painting. So, this article is about the history of breeds in related dog portraiture. And it is a rich area to discuss. You will see the wonderful little gouache gifted to me is from the 1960’s in the photo, but the story is older. Let us go back to the 15th century, when the household dog began to be painted with its owners: for example, the wonderful little Brussels Griffon, as seen in Jan van Eyck’s “The Arnolfini Portrait”, 1434, which at present is in the National Gallery London. What an artist is doing with a dog in the mix of a man and his betrothed is to show fidelity, guardianship and domestic bliss. And this is the earliest representation of the Brussels Griffon. Now we go to another famous inclusion of a dog, as a portrait unto itself, of a dog in a masterwork painting: Diego Velazquez, “Las Meninas,” 1656, presently at the Museo Nacionel del Prado, Madrid, where Velazquez pictures a massive Spanish mastiff, a protector dog, bred to watch over sheep, family and children and serve as a guardian of the home. It’s perfect for the images of the future royal children of Spain and an early representation of a massive and important breed. A 1673 painting by Jan Steen shows us one of the early images of the King Charles spaniel, in the work called the “Wrath of Ahasuerus” currently at the Barber Institute of the Arts, University of Birmingham, U.K. This is a wonderful portrayal of the spaniel, which had its origin in the Iberian Peninsula and was bred to retrieve game birds for the aristocracy. And here, the dog looks nervous and ready to play, as anyone who has a spaniel will recognize. Finally, another great image of an early breed, also in an invaluable work of art, is a Poitevin hound in Gustav Courbet’s 1854 hemasterpiece,groundbreakinginwhichshowsthatthe artist is equal to the aristocrat, who here has ownership of the beautiful purebred Poitevin hound, and we see the breed as it is today. The work is called “Bonjour Monsieur Courbet,” 1854, painted by an artist who wanted to paint pure realism, and deal with the class issue through this method. The dog, as usual, becomes a symbol of what the artist is showing, meaning that breeding is only as good as what is Throughbred. the world of art, the dog has been represented and celebrated, but there is a definite reason for that. The dog is an early symbol of loyalty as well as a symbol of the shortness of life. If you know what I know, having been a long time owner of dogs, they live for almost a cycle in a human’s lifetime, which is 14-17 years. And then, they are gone. And then, you have the close of an era in your own life. When you see a dog in a painting, you may be sure that the artist wants to say something about both life and death, with a little bit about loyalty thrown in. My little dachshund painting is not on the level of the works I have mentioned. But a painting of a dog breed that we love will always make us happy; we remember how our own cycle of life is encapsulated in the many lives of our dogs. I tried to find the artist of my gift, which is signed Ritter on that wonderful mid-century gift of a dachshund in a high backed chair, but that “Ritter” I have not found: the image itself is at this time probably valued in the market because it is a mid-century theme and style, and thus, is worth about $400. I thank all those of us who love to see our dogs in our art.

CROSSWORD PUZZLE

©2022

Leo: The day’s general mood should fit quite well with your agenda, Leo. There’s no need to fixate on the negative. Keep things light and upbeat and worry about the consequences later. This is the time to be adventurous and explore. Don’t let anyone else tell you how to run your show. You have a strong will and strong opinions, so don’t be afraid to express either.

Virgo: You may need a translator to get through to people today, Virgo. It could be hard to make decisions, but not impossible. Today’s tip is to err on the side of adventure. Trust that good luck will pull you through if you take risks. You may feel unappreciated. Ask for help when you need it, but don’t rely on others to heal you.

Libra: Use your power resources today, Libra, as you have a great deal of dynamic energy at your disposal. You have the ability to transform and conquer anything now. Note that your spirit of adventure is apt to be more acute than normal, and you may be feeling quite anxious to get things rolling in a new direction. Don’t hold back.

DAILYHOROSCOPEBRIDGE

Gemini: Today is your day, Gemini, so live it up! If it seems like things have been rather intense lately, don’t worry, they’re apt to lighten up quite a bit today. Feel free to be your usual jolly self, the one who adds humor to the group. Your laughter will be appreciated.

All

Cancer: Be careful that you aren’t acting in a way that you dislike in others, Cancer. You could find that you’re slowly taking on the traits of the people you despise. Lighten up a bit and put a smile on your face. If you continue to see the negative side of everything, it’s likely that other people will only see the negative side of you.

Scorpio: You could be asked to make some spontaneous decisions today that you might not feel entirely comfortable making, Scorpio. You could feel you don’t have enough facts to make an educated decision about what to do next. Realize that sometimes it’s necessary to bite the bullet and make the best choice based on the knowledge you have.

Sagittarius: Emotionally, you may feel as if you’re running up against a brick wall, Sagittarius. It could be that your first reaction is to drown your sorrows in drink. Escapism is only a temporary remedy. If things slam in your face today, use this as an indication that you need to take necessary action.

Capricorn: Your emotions could be extra powerful today, Capricorn, although something may not feel as if it’s sitting right. It could be a feeling of manipulation. Perhaps you’ve misjudged someone else’s sensitivity and now they’re working to get back at you in a subtle yet harmful way. Attend to your feelings and spend time alone if it helps you get more in tune with your emotions.

CODEWORDPUZZLEPUZZLE

Aquarius: Take hold of this day as if it’s your own and use it to grow your dreams, Aquarius. You’ll find a great deal of power and dynamism in the air urging you to take the adventurous route. There’s no need to hold back. The door is open and waiting for you to take the leap of faith to the other side.

Pisces: There’s a fiery tone to the day that can’t be ignored, Pisces. You may find that adjustments need to be made in your own plan of attack in order to get on the same page with other people. Don’t worry if things don’t go according to your plans.

By GREG BISHOP THE CENTER SQUARE (The Center Square) – Illinois Democrats still haven’t heard back from the U.S. Census about their request to revise the state’s population upwards. Republicans say it’s clear the state has lost population. Decennial U.S. Census numbers show Illinois lost people and the state’s population dropped to 12.6 million. The state lost a seat in Congress because of the decline, being one of three states to lose people. A post enumeration survey indicated the state may have been undercounted by about 2%. In May, Illinois Democrats asked the U.S. Census to revise the numbers upward. U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Springfield, thinks the state is growing.

Salvi said it’s Republicans who can put in place pro-growth policies for the state instead of trying to play with statistics to capture more federal tax dollars. Illinois House Minority Leader Jim Durkin, R-Western Springs, said it’s clear that Illinois is losing “Proofpopulation.isthat,I’lljust talk about my neighborhood, most people that I know have either left for Indiana or have a for sale sign in their front yard, specifically because of the tax consequences that they believe is going to be thrust upon them in the near future,” Durkin told The Center Square. “We are shrinking.” The official tally from the U.S. Census backs Durkin up. It shows the state lost around 18,000 people over the past 10 years.

By BETHANY BLANKLEY THE CENTER SQUARE CONTRIBUTOR (The Center Square) –Democratic gubernatorial candidate Nikki Fried is leading U.S. Rep. Charlie Crist just a week out from the primary election, according to a new University of North Florida Public Opinion Research Lab poll. The poll was conducted among 1,624 registered voters from Aug. 8-12 and has a margin of error of +/-Registered3.4%. voters who identified as Democrats were asked who they’d vote for in the Aug. 23 primary election among the Democratic nominees for governor and U.S. Senate. About 47% said they’d vote for Ms. Fried; 43% said they’d vote for Mr. Crist. Cadance Daniel received 4% support; Robert Willis, 1%; 6% said they didn’t know who they were voting for or didn’t answer the“Friedquestion.seems to have reversed the eight-point lead that Crist had when we asked registered Democrats about vote choice in February,” Dr. Michael Binder, PORL faculty director and UNF professor of political science, said in a statement. “It’s possible that the overturning of Roe v. Wade changed the make-up of this race and has particularly energized women that are almost 20 points more likely to vote for her.” Mr. Crist’s campaign cited a different poll published by Change Research that indicates that he’d beat Ms. Fried by 10 points: 47% to His37%.campaign issued a statement, saying, “The UNF poll is clearly an outlier. Between public polls and our own internal polls, Nikki Fried at this stage of the race has no path to victory barring a black swan event. And her team also knows that.”According to the University of North Florida poll, half of participants said they’d vote for Gov. Ron DeSantis if the election were held today: 50% said they’d vote for Gov. DeSantis, 43% for Ms. Fried.Ifthe race were held between Gov. DeSantis and Mr. Crist, 50% said they’d vote for Gov.

However, according to a RealClear Politics average, Mr. Rubio leads Demings by 5.8%. According to Transparency USA, Gov. DeSantis has outraised all of his opponents by more than tenfold. He’s raised $140.5 million and spent $13.7 million compared to Mr. Crist’s $11.7 million and Ms. Fried’s $2.4 million.Theprimary election is Aug. 23. Early voting is already underway.

“I think we’ve gained population,” Durbin said. “The [Chicago] Tribune is going to disagree with me. They’ve got their own editorial policy. But the numbers speak for themselves.”Durbinhopes to hear back from the U.S. Census, but hasn’t. “It means federal dollars coming back home,” Durbin told The Center Square. “The greater the population, the more federal dollars returned to us. I want to help the taxpayers get their money back.”

By VICTOR SKINNER THE CENTER SQUARE CONTRIBUTOR (The Center Square) — Plaintiffs in a case challenging North Carolina’s felon voting law have submitted opening arguments to the state Supreme Court, alleging the law is racist because it disproportionately impacts Black people. Plaintiffs in Community Success Initiative v. Moore wrote in an opening brief Wednesday that a 1973 law that requires felons to complete post release probation or parole to regain their voting rights “continues to achieve its from prison violates the state constitution’s Equal Protection Clause and Free Elections Clause, and that the law was written with a racist intent. “North Carolina elections under (the 1973 law) do not accurately reflect the will of the people where the vote margin in statewide and local elections is often less than the number of people who are disenfranchised in the state or respective local area as a result of the statute,” Mr. Atkinson wrote. “This Court should affirm the trial court’s conclusion that (the law’s) denial of the franchise to people on felony supervision violates both the North Carolina Constitution’s Equal Protection Clause and its Free Elections Clause.” A separate friend-of-thecourt brief filed by 14 Democratled states and the District of Columbia argues that “felon enfranchisement serves governmental interests in promoting civic participation and improving public safety, while felon disenfranchisement laws do not promote criminal justice goals and are administratively burdensome.” Republican leaders in the General Assembly have countered the alleged racist motivations of the 1973 law by pointing out it was sponsored by Democrats with the backing of three black lawmakers and the NAACP.InJuly, attorney Nicole Moss, attorney for legislative leaders, presented arguments that cited provisions of the North Carolina Constitution that disenfranchises convicted felons and stipulates they must be “restored the rights of citizenship in a manner prescribed by law.” Doing away with the 1973 law would, therefore, eliminate any possibility of reenfranchisement, Ms. Moss wrote.Lawmakers now have the opportunity to respond to plaintiffs’ opening arguments before the case moves to the next phase of oral arguments, The Carolina Journal reports. in North Carolina felony voting case argue that law is racist
