Today is Friday, May 20, the 140th day of 2022. There are 225 days left in the year.

On May 20, 1956, the United States exploded the first airborne hydrogen bomb over Bikini Atoll in the Pacific.

In 1862, President Abraham Lincoln signed the Homestead Act, which was intended to encourage settlements west of the Mississippi River by making federal land available for farming.

In 1916, the Saturday Evening Post published its first Norman Rockwell cover; the illustration shows a scowling boy dressed in his Sunday best, dutifully pushing a baby carriage past a couple of boys wearing baseball uniforms.

In 1927, Charles Lindbergh took off from Roosevelt Field on Long Island, New York, aboard the Spirit of St. Louis on his historic solo flight to France.

In 1932, Amelia Earhart took off from Newfoundland to become the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic. (Because of weather and equipment problems, Earhart set down in Northern Ireland instead of her intended destination, France.)

In 1948, Chiang Kai-shek was inaugurated as the first president of the Republic of China (Taiwan).

In 1959, nearly 5,000 Japanese-Americans had their U.S. citizenships restored after choosing to renounce them during World War II.

In 1961, a white mob attacked a busload of Freedom Riders in Montgomery, Alabama, prompting the federal government to send in U.S. marshals to restore order.

In 1969, U.S. and South Vietnamese forces captured Ap Bia Mountain, referred to as "Hamburger Hill" by the Americans, following one of the bloodiest battles of the Vietnam War.

In 1985, Radio Marti, operated by the U.S. government, began broadcasting; Cuba responded by attempting to jam its signal.

In 2009, in a rare, bipartisan defeat for President Barack Obama, the Senate voted overwhelmingly, 90-6, to keep the prison at Guantanamo Bay open for the foreseeable future and forbid the transfer of any detainees to facilities in the United States.

In 2015, four of the world's biggest banks — JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup's banking unit Citicorp, Barclays and the Royal Bank of Scotland — agreed to pay more than $5 billion in penalties and plead guilty to rigging the currency markets.

In 2020, President Donald Trump threatened to hold up federal funds for two election battleground states (Michigan and Nevada) that were making it easier to vote by mail during the pandemic. Police ticketed seven people for cutting hair during a protest against coronavirus restrictions outside the Michigan Capitol, where about a dozen barbers and hair stylists defied stay-at-home orders to give free haircuts.

Ten years ago: A two-day NATO summit hosted by President Barack Obama opened in Chicago. Thousands of protesters marched through downtown Chicago, airing grievances about war, climate change and a wide range of other complaints. Abdel Baset al-Megrahi, 60, the only man convicted in connection with the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 in 1988, died in Tripoli, Libya. Robin Gibb, 62, who along with his brothers Maurice and Barry, defined the disco era as part of the Bee Gees, died in London.

Five years ago: President Donald Trump opened a five-stop overseas tour, his first since taking office, receiving a lavish royal welcome in Saudi Arabia.

One year ago: Israel and Hamas announced a cease-fire, ending a bruising 11-day war that caused widespread destruction in the Gaza Strip and brought life in much of Israel to a standstill. CNN said it was inappropriate for news anchor Chris Cuomo to have been involved in phone calls with the staff of his brother, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, as the governor decided how to respond to sexual harassment allegations. (CNN would fire Chris Cuomo in December 2021 over his role in helping his older brother.)

IRS interest rates increase for the third quarter of 2022

The Saline County Sheriff's Office urges you to make it click!

The instant you buckle up before driving or riding in the front seat of a car or truck, you cut your risk of a fatal injury in a crash nearly in half. That's a massive return on the investment of putting on a seatbelt. Being buckled up during a crash helps keep you safe and secure inside your vehicle, as being ejected from a vehicle is almost always deadly. Additionally, your vehicle's other safety features, particularly air bags, can't work as effectively if you're not buckled up - they are designed to work together.

Beginning Sunday and continuing through June 4, travelers can expect increased law enforcement presence on Saline County roadways as the Saline County Sheriff's Office joins 160 other law enforcement agencies in vigorously enforcing Kansas occupant restraint and other traffic laws as part of the 2022 Kansas Click It or Ticket campaign.

The purpose of the campaign is to drastically reduce the number of preventable deaths and injuries that occur when unbelted drivers and passengers are involved in traffic crashes.

During Click It or Ticket, drivers will be met with extra enforcement of both the Kansas Safety Belt USe Act and the Kansas Child Passenger Safety Act. These statutes require that all vehicle occupants must be appropriately restrained.

"First, I want to thank the drivers that take their safety seriously and buckle up every trip," said Saline County Sheriff Roger Soldan said. "I also want people to know that in the interest of saving lives, day or night, the Saline County Sheriff's Office is committed to vigorously ticketing violators of adult seat belt and child safety laws, as well as other traffic infractions, which make the need for occupant restraint so necessary."

The Click It or Ticket campaign is supported by a grant from the Kansas Department of Transportation.

Marquette man dies after pickup strikes guardrail, overturns

By PEDER MAGEE and JAMES TRILLING Senior Attorneys, FTC

Whether in class or at home, kids are probably using technology to do their schoolwork. But have you ever wondered what information that technology is gathering from your kid? 

The FTC has, and today issued a policy statement that put ed tech on notice: Kids shouldn’t have to give up their privacy rights to do their schoolwork or go to class remotely. In other words, ed tech companies: You can’t require parents and schools to agree to the comprehensive surveillance of children for kids to use those learning tools.

You might have heard of the&nbsp;<a href="https://consumer.ftc.gov/articles/protecting-your-childs-privacy-online">Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act</a>&nbsp;– also called COPPA. It’s at the center of the FTC’s efforts to protect kids’ privacy in the digital world. This law, enforced by the FTC, says that any site or service (think apps) that COPPA covers has to get a parent’s (or in some cases, a school’s) OK before it collects personal information from your child under 13.&nbsp; COPPA also protects kids’ privacy in other ways, like limiting how long companies can keep your child’s personal information and requiring that they properly safeguard the information. When a company breaks the rules, the FTC can sue.

With the pandemic-inspired explosion of ed tech, the FTC wants to make clear that ed tech companies offering online services directed to kids under 13 must follow the law, including by properly safeguarding your child’s personal information and, where a company relies on the school to provide consent, using kids’ information only for school-related purposes, not for things like marketing.

So, check out the policy statement itself for the details. But parents, here’s the message that industry is getting: The FTC is watching, ever more closely, what kid info you collect, how you use it, for how long you keep it, and how you protect it.

CAPS offering four classes this summer; registration open

The City of Salina has announced that it will begin flushing water lines and hydrants later this month.

The annual water line free chlorine flushing is scheduled for Wednesday through July 11.

"To maintain high water quality in the city’s water distribution system and Saline County RWD No. 3, the Utilities Department will temporarily modify the disinfection process used to treat our drinking water. This is a preventative maintenance process and consists of turning off the ammonia feed and increasing the free chlorine feed in order to maintain a more uniform disinfection level throughout the city’s water distribution system and Saline County RWD No. 3," the city noted in a news release.

The city cautioned that during the flushing period, water customers may notice a strong chlorine taste or odor in the water.

"These temporary conditions are normal during the modified disinfection process and will not cause adverse health effects. If you are especially sensitive to the taste or odor of chlorine, keep an open container of drinking water in your refrigerator for a few hours to allow the chlorine to dissipate," the news release noted.

The city urged "users of home dialysis machines, owners of tropical fish and managers of stores and restaurants with fish and shellfish holding tanks to seek professional advice as the method for removing free chlorine residuals differs from removing chloramine residuals from tap water."

Additionally, the city plans to conduct its annual fire hydrant flushing during the chlorine flushing of the water lines. This is a preventive maintenance measure.

"Flushing the water distribution system achieves three objectives: helps to keep the interior of the water lines clean (removes sediment); helps maintain good quality water in the water distribution system; and provides an opportunity to check the operation of all fire hydrants. The water is safe to drink but may cause staining of laundry," the city noted.

City water customers are encouraged to avoid doing laundry if the water is discolored due to fire hydrants being flushed in their areas.

The annual fire hydrant flushing is scheduled for May 31-July 5. Following is a map of when fire hydrants are scheduled to be flushed in each part of the city.

 </figure>By SALINA POSTThe City of Salina has announced that it will begin flushing water lines and hydrants later this month.The annual water line free chlorine flushing is scheduled for Wednesday through July 11."To maintain high water quality in the city’s water distribution system and Saline County RWD No. 3, the Utilities Department will temporarily modify the disinfection process used to treat our drinking water. This is a preventative maintenance process and consists of turning off the ammonia feed and increasing the free chlorine feed in order to maintain a more uniform disinfection level throughout the city’s water distribution system and Saline County RWD No. 3," the city noted in a news release.The city cautioned that during the flushing period, water customers may notice a strong chlorine taste or odor in the water."These temporary conditions are normal during the modified disinfection process and will not cause adverse health effects. If you are especially sensitive to the taste or odor of chlorine, keep an open container of drinking water in your refrigerator for a few hours to allow the chlorine to dissipate," the news release noted.The city urged "users of home dialysis machines, owners of tropical fish and managers of stores and restaurants with fish and shellfish holding tanks to seek professional advice as the method for removing free chlorine residuals differs from removing chloramine residuals from tap water."Additionally, the city plans to conduct its annual fire hydrant flushing during the chlorine flushing of the water lines. This is a preventive maintenance measure."Flushing the water distribution system achieves three objectives: helps to keep the interior of the water lines clean (removes sediment); helps maintain good quality water in the water distribution system; and provides an opportunity to check the operation of all fire hydrants. The water is safe to drink but may cause staining of laundry," the city noted.City water customers are encouraged to avoid doing laundry if the water is discolored due to fire hydrants being flushed in their areas.The annual fire hydrant flushing is scheduled for May 31-July 5. Following is a map of when fire hydrants are scheduled to be flushed in each part of the city.<figure>

Police are investigating the recent theft of catalytic converters from two locations in Salina.

Sometime between May 8 and Tuesday, someone cut and stole the catalytic converter from a Ford F250 van belonging to the Salina Post Office, 211 E. Ash Street, Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning. Damage and loss is estimated at $1,500.

Forrester said there possibly is surveillance video from the area.

Additionally, sometime on Tuesday, someone attempted to cut the catalytic converter from a 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 belonging to Tox-Eol Pest Management, Inc., 417 S. Clark Street. While not successful in stealing this catalytic converter, the thief did manage to poke a hole in the oil pan, causing all the oil to drain from the pickup, Forrester said. Damage was estimated at $1,800.

The thief, however, was successful in removing the catalytic converter from a 2008 Ford F150. In the process, the thief punctured the pickup, causing fluids to leak out, Forrester said. Loss and damage was estimated at $1,800.

Multiple surveillance videos from the area of the Tox-Eol theft and damage show a dark sedan, Forrester said.

He said police were not sure whether the thefts at the two locations were related.

In a legal opinion on May 26, 2021, Kansas Attorney General noted that "Catalytic converters are covered by the Scrap Metal Theft Reduction Act, so transactions involving their purchase by scrap metal dealers are regulated and must be reported to the Kansas Bureau of Investigation database."

College can be a lot of things—fun, exciting, challenging, exhausting, rewarding—but “cheap” doesn’t usually make the list. And if you’re in college right now, or you will be soon, I want you to be able to save as much money as humanly possible so you can cash flow your degree and graduate with a future that does&nbsp;not&nbsp;include making student loan payments (yes, that really is possible).

Here’s the good news: You don’t have to work a full-time job or eat ramen noodles 24/7 in order to graduate debt-free. There are plenty of simple, practical ways you can save big on college expenses.&nbsp;&nbsp;

You have to live, right? But when you’re a college student, housing can mean anything from a small apartment you share with roommates to a luxury dorm with a hot tub and a view of the city skyline. Let’s keep this budget-friendly.

Okay, y’all. I get it. You’re probably ready to get out of the house and bask in your new freedom, and living at home might be the&nbsp;last&nbsp;thing you want to do. And obviously, living at home won’t be an option for everyone. But just think about not having to pay thousands of dollars per year on rent, utility bills or food. All that extra money in your bank account will be totally worth it.

Compare the costs of living on versus off campus

Renting an apartment isn’t always going to be cheaper than living on campus, and living on campus isn’t always going to be cheaper than renting. You have to look at all the options available at your school and in the surrounding area to see what’s most affordable.

If you rent an apartment, having a roommate (or two or three) will cut your expenses way down. Make sure your landlord has approved each individual roommate, and that they all sign the lease so you won’t be left hanging financially if one of them moves out.

Food—another one of those things you can’t live without. But you&nbsp;can&nbsp;live without daily avocado toast. You just have to&nbsp;be wise about your food choices.

You can save a ton if you go in on groceries, especially if you buy in bulk. You could even grocery shop and cook together to get some solid roommate bonding time.

Be strategic about eating out&nbsp;

It’s okay to go out with your friends every once in a while, but when you’re constantly getting waffles at 2 a.m. on impulse, it really starts to add up. Budget the amount of money you can spend on eating out every month.

Meal plan costs can vary depending on your school––cheaper ones can be about $1,000 per semester, but some can be three times that (or more). Some colleges might make you get a meal plan for your freshman year, so if you have to have one, make sure you actually use it. But if you&nbsp;don’t&nbsp;have to have one,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ramseysolutions.com/budgeting/meal-planner" target="_blank">meal prepping</a>&nbsp;and making food from scratch are your new best friends.

How to save money on tuition and supplies

This is one of the biggest and most intimidating categories for college students. But don’t stress, y’all––I got you.

It’s crazy how much you can save just by getting your textbooks from Amazon or a used bookstore instead of the campus bookstore. You probably won’t find&nbsp;all&nbsp;your required reading at those cheaper places, but even if you do have to use the campus bookstore, they’ll usually give you the option to rent instead of buy. Go with renting.

Take classes at a community college first

You can save a lot on tuition by getting all your general education requirements out of the way at a community college before heading to your school of choice, because the price difference is insane. A year of tuition at a private is school is, on average, more than&nbsp;nine times&nbsp;the cost of a year of tuition at a community college.

The average tuition at a public, in-state school is $9,349 per year, and the average tuition at a public, out-of-state school is $27,023 per year.<a href="https://educationdata.org/average-cost-of-college" target="_blank">1</a>&nbsp;That’s a yearly difference of more than $17,000! If it’s an out-of-state&nbsp;private&nbsp;college, the tuition skyrockets even more.

It’s kind of a no-brainer: If you&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ramseysolutions.com/saving/how-to-find-scholarships" target="_blank">find scholarships</a>, you won’t have to worry as much about tuition costs (and some scholarships even cover your books, food and housing).&nbsp;Back when I was headed to college, my family wasn’t able to help me with funds, so I treated applying for scholarships like a part-time job—and it seriously paid off. I know it’s a lot of hard work, but I promise it will make a huge difference.

Not everyone remembers to factor this into their college budget, especially if they know they’re going to be living on campus and walking a lot. But the truth is, you’ll need to get to places off campus at some point, so it’s smart to think about this stuff ahead of time.

Nobody likes spending money on gas. With bikes, you don’t have to. Enough said.

This could be anything from the bus system to subways to rideshare services. Depending on how often you use public transportation, you might want to buy passes instead of individual tickets––it costs more up front, but it will help you save in the long run.

And because I&nbsp;really&nbsp;want you to graduate with cash in your bank account, I’m going to give you a couple extra tips:

Have a part-time job or side hustle

Don’t underestimate the effect that a few babysitting or dog-walking jobs per week can have on your savings. For a steadier income, a part-time job (no more than 15–20 hours per week) is a great idea too.

Find all the student discounts and coupons you can

We’re talking Groupon. We’re talking Yelp. We’re talking all the restaurants, museums and movie theaters in your area that give discounts to college students. Wherever you go, don’t be afraid to flash that student ID and ask if there are any deals available!

If you really want to save money and build a solid foundation for your future, don’t have debt of&nbsp;any&nbsp;kind. No student loans, no credit cards—nothing. They will only weigh you down, and keep you from hitting your financial goals.

Those are just a few of my tips for saving money in college. Remember, making the right plan for your&nbsp;future starts with understanding&nbsp;all&nbsp;your&nbsp;options!

ELLIS: How to save money in college 

Today is Thursday, May 19, the 139th day of 2022. There are 226 days left in the year.

On May 19, 1536, Anne Boleyn, the second wife of England's King Henry VIII, was beheaded after being convicted of adultery.

In 1780, a mysterious darkness enveloped much of New England and part of Canada in the early afternoon.

In 1913, California Gov. Hiram Johnson signed the Webb-Hartley Law prohibiting "aliens ineligible to citizenship" from owning farm land, a measure targeting Asian immigrants, particularly Japanese.

In 1920, ten people were killed in a gun battle between coal miners, who were led by a local police chief, and a group of private security guards hired to evict them for joining a union in Matewan, a small "company town" in West Virginia.

In 1921, Congress passed, and President Warren G. Harding signed, the Emergency Quota Act, which established national quotas for immigrants.

In 1943, in his second wartime address to the U.S. Congress, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill pledged his country's full support in the fight against Japan; that evening, Churchill met with President Franklin D. Roosevelt at the White House, where the two leaders agreed on May 1, 1944 as the date for the D-Day invasion of France (the operation ended up being launched more than a month later).

In 1962, film star Marilyn Monroe sang "Happy Birthday to You" to President John F. Kennedy during a Democratic fundraiser at New York's Madison Square Garden.

In 1967, the Soviet Union ratified a treaty with the United States and Britain, banning nuclear and other weapons from outer space as well as celestial bodies such as the moon. (The treaty entered into force in October 1967.)

In 1993, the Clinton White House set off a political storm by abruptly firing the entire staff of its travel office; five of the seven staffers were later reinstated and assigned to other duties.

In 1994, former first lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis died in New York at age 64.

In 2003, WorldCom Inc. agreed to pay investors $500 million to settle civil fraud charges.

In 2018, Britain's Prince Harry wed American actress Meghan Markle in a service that reflected Harry's royal heritage and his bride's biracial roots, as well as their shared commitment to put a more diverse, modern face on the monarchy.

In 2020, a Trump administration policy of quickly expelling most migrants stopped along the border because of the COVID-19 pandemic was indefinitely extended.

Ten years ago: Chen Guangcheng, a blind Chinese legal activist, was hurriedly taken from a hospital and put on a plane for the United States, closing a nearly monthlong diplomatic tussle that had tested U.S.-China relations.

Five years ago: Sweden dropped a rape investigation of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who remained holed up in Ecuador's embassy in London to avoid arrest and possible extradition to the United States to face charges stemming from the publication of thousands of pages of classified documents. Former U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y., whose penchant for sexting strangers ended his political career, pleaded guilty in Manhattan to a sex charge, tearfully apologizing for communications with a 15-year-old girl.&nbsp;(Weiner received a 21-month prison sentence.) Iran’s moderate President Hassan Rouhani trounced a hard-line challenger to secure re-election.

One year ago: The House voted to create an independent commission on the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, sending the legislation to the Senate. (Senate Republicans would block creation of the panel.) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to press ahead with a fierce military offensive in the Gaza Strip, pushing back against calls from the United States to wind down the operation.
