“After a two-year hiatus, it was a great success, and it was great to see people come together outside in the courtyard enjoying each other’s company and enjoying a variety of wine and yummy apppetizers,” Heidi Holly, the center’s executive director, told the News-Press afterward. “What’s equally important is that we raised money for a great cause, the Friendship Center.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency Thursday evening in Riverside County due to the Fairview Fire and in El Dorado and Placer counties due to the Mosquito Fire. The proclamation came a week after Newsom declared a state of emergency in Siskiyou County in response to the Mill Fire, which had burned more than 3,900 acres and was 80% contained as of TheFriday.Fairview Fire burned more than 27,400 acres and was 5% contained Friday morning. The fire destroyed 11 structures and caused two fatalities, according to Cal Fire’s incident page. More than 18,700 structures were threatened by the blaze, forcing tens of thousands of people to evacuate.

The first 45 minutes were scoreless for both teams, but that wasn’t for a lack of trying.

Even with that, the UCSB defense showed up as they stopped multiple shots, including three on goal, from going in theirDespitenet. the first half, UCSB did not let up on offense. The Gauchos were finally able to make it through the Bulldogs’ defensive line, scoring their first goal in the 50th minute.

• Besides Little, the only other two Gauchos to play all 90 minutes were Elise Ziem and Melanie Mikoy. Mikoy was a key part of the team’s defensive efforts while Ziem’s physical style of play stopped the Bulldogs from scoring.

“Once the federal government finalizes details of the student debt relief program, we will know whether the relief is tax exempt under current California law,” Senate President Pro Tempore Toni Atkins and Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon said in a joint statement Friday. “If not, we will make the relief tax exempt through immediate action in early 2023.“Rest assured, one way or another, California will not tax the federal student debt relief.”

California’s Franchise Tax Board told the Los Angeles Times this week that they need more information from the U.S. Department of Education about how the program is being administered to tell whether or not the forgiveness will be taxable.

Stanton wrote on Tuesday. “For example, the state’s Colorado River hydrologic region water use hasn’t gone down--but actually increased nearly 41 percent in April 2022 compared to April 2020. California is also poised to not only use its entire water allocation in 2022 but withdraw additional water from Lake Mead above its allocation.

UCSB women’s soccer (1-4-2) was back at Harder Stadium this evening as it played another non-conference opponent in the Fresno State University Bulldogs. Following this very physical and demanding game, the Gauchos were the team to come out on top, winning their first match of the season 2-1 over the Bulldogs.

Though student loan forgiveness is typically counted as taxable income, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 exempted student loan forgiveness from federal taxation through 2025. States that follow federal tax policy are likely to follow suit and exempt debt forgiveness from state income tax bases, but a handful of states likely won’t, according to the Tax Foundation.Indiana,North Carolina, Arkansas, Minnesota, Mississippi, California and Wisconsin are among the handful of states that could treat the forgiven debt as taxable income unless additional action by lawmakers is taken.
