State universities face 10 to 15 percent budget cuts
A budget analyst warns that state universities and junior colleges face 10 to 15 percent cuts next year unless taxes rise. UT officials say cuts would hinder operation, potentially causing non academic layoffs, as lawmakers consider a 640 million dollar reduction to fit a 26 billion dollar two year revenue forecast.

Fragments From Cullen Davis Art Collection Fetch $561
A Fort Worth couple collected jade ivory and lapis fragments from Lake Worth and sold 17 lots at a monthly antique auction for $561.50. The pieces, linked to Cullen Davis’s smashed Asian art collection, included jade temple bells and glass tiles, with bids as low as $2. The airman who found them and his fiancée declined to reveal identities, while auctioneer Warren Miller noted the items were hauled from the lake and tied to Davis’s disputed collection.
