Charles D Michener shaped bee science and ecology
Charles D Michener, University of Kansas Professor Emeritus of Entomology and Systematics and Ecology, died at 97. A leading authority on the 20000 bee species, he began science as a child in Pasadena, learning from ornithologist parents, painted wildflowers, and produced 1200 pages of insect drawings. He studied at UC Berkeley, earned a 1941 PhD, and published a 1944 monograph that defined a new era in bee research, later directing butterfly and moth work at the American Museum of Natural History before shaping global bee studies for decades.

State budget outlook hinges on Friday revenue report
Legislative officials say Friday will deliver updated revenue estimates for the current year and next fiscal year, shaping whether the governor must push for cuts or can delay them. Analysts expect a downward revision due to weak sales tax returns and lower severance tax from oil and gas. The governor may act after lawmakers return in January 2016, with potential deep cuts or tax increases likely before the election year.
