Good morning. It's Monday, June 27. UCF President John Hitt will get an additional $491,000 at the end of June to reward him for remaining at the helm of the school for the past three years.

More than 100 marchers from Orlando's lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community led the huge St. Pete Pride parade Saturday night, carrying signs with names of each of the fallen at Pulse nightclub.
