Q: Catalan President Carles Puigdemont  said  he  favored mediation to find a way out of the crisis but that Spainâs central government had rejected this. Prime Minister Mariano Rajoyâs government responded by calling on Catalonia to âreturn to the path of lawâ first before any negotiations.
 Puigdemont  told the BBC  he  would ask the regionâs parliament to declare independence following the referendum  which Spainâs government and constitutional court say was illegal and in which only a minority of Catalans voted.
In a televised address on Wednesday night   Puigdemont  said: âThis moment calls for mediation. We have received various offers in the last hours and we will receive more.â
Without specifically mentioning plans for an independence declaration   he  added: âI am sure that in the next few days we will show the best of our country when the institutions of Catalonia will have to apply the results of the referendum.
Prime Minister Mariano Rajoyâs government replied that  Puigdemont  had wasted an opportunity to put Catalonia back on a legal course. âIf  Mr. Puigdemont  wants to talk or negotiate  or wants to send mediators   he  knows perfectly well what  he  must do first: Return to the path of the law â it said in a statement.
 Puigdemont  criticized Spainâs King Felipe VI who on Tuesday lambasted the âirresponsible behaviorâ of the Catalan leaders.
 He  said  the king  had disappointed many people in Catalonia by failing to call for dialogue and  he  accused King Felipe of endorsing the policies of Rajoy  which  he  said had been âcatastrophicâ for Catalonia.

Q: WASHINGTON â President Donald Trumpâs Russia probe lawyer  Ty Cobb  previously represented  billionaire Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal   according to previously overlooked media reports and emails shared with HuffPost. The kingdom unexpectedly arrested  the prince  along with more than a dozen other prominent Saudis over the weekend in a move observers interpreted as a power play by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
Trump has close ties to Saudi Arabia and Prince Mohammed   the Saudi crown prince  said to be behind the arrests  including Alwaleedâs. Several weeks ago  White House adviser and Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner paid a secret visit to the kingdom and spent significant time with  Prince Mohammed   according to Politico and the Washington Post.
 The president  pushed the kingdom to use the New York Stock Exchange for the upcoming IPO of a portion of its national oil company  Aramco  in a tweet Saturday just hours before the crackdown.  He  also praised the kingdomâs policies in a call with Saudi King Salman  the crown princeâs father  the same day.
 Cobb  spent more than three decades working on white-collar cases before joining Trumpâs team.  He  resigned from  his  longtime firm  Hogan Lovells  in July. At the time  business news service ALM Media reported that  Cobb  had previously worked for members of the Saudi royal family  citing a Hogan Lovells page that now appears to have been taken down.
A 2012 Business Insider story by reporter Nicholas Carlson was more specific. The story said that  Cobb  had threatened to sue an American who had attempted a lawsuit against Alwaleed for allegedly threatening him with beheading and having him detained at gunpoint while he worked for the princeâs son.
Emails from Mark Mazo  another partner at Hogan Lovells  to Toronto-based businessman Alan Bender  who was representing a woman who claimed she had a secret marriage with Alwaleed  provide further evidence of  Cobb âs connection to the prince.

As part of the 9th annual Freedom Conference & Festival , a conservative confab taking place in Steamboat Springs next month , the paintings of 43rd President George W. Bush will be on display for attendees at the Steamboat Grand Hotel . 
"This is the first time the -LRB- Bush -RRB- exhibit has been shown in Colorado , giving state residents a unique opportunity to view this popular collection ," wrote Jackson Shedelbower , of the Steamboat Institute , in an email . 
The one-day exhibition on Friday , Aug. 25 , organized by the Steamboat Institute , marks the Colorado debut of Bush 's work from "The Art of Leadership : A President 's Personal Diplomacy" exhibition , which features paintings of world leaders Bush met during his tenure in the White House including Vladimir Putin , Angela Merkel , Hamid Karzai , Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and Tony Blair . 
Although some balked at the idea of Bush as a fine artist when he took up painting in his post-presidential retirement , the 71-year-old has stuck to his guns and humbly worked to improve his art . 
"Portraits of Courage : A Commander in Chief 's Tribute to America 's Warriors ," a book of Bush 's paintings of wounded U.S. military veterans that was published in February , netted surprisingly favorable reviews from critics and topped The Washington Post 's best-selling books list earlier this year . 
"-LRB- Bush -RRB- was really putting himself out there and taking a personal risk with these paintings , not knowing what people would think of them ," said Jennifer Schubert-Akin , CEO of the free-market , nonprofit Steamboat Institute . 
Bush will personalize a copy of the book that is being auctioned on the Steamboat Institute 's fundraiser as part of its $ 75-per-person Red , White & Blue Bash fundraiser on July 20 , Schubert-Akin said , with bidding starting at $ 300 .
