HOROSCOPES
Today's birthday (Nov. 13)
This week may feel like the most stressful week of your life. Think positive today that the week is almost finished. Start making weekend plans now.
Aries: Todav is a 7.
This is a good day to focus on income, investment returns and cold, hard cash. Being passive will cut seriously into your profits. Success is yours for the taking.
Taurus: Today is a 7.
Gemini: Todav is a 7.
You feel the pull of many attractive options today.
Nothing is urgent enough to rush your decision-making process. Evaluate a strategy before making a full commitment.
Your friendships are a vital part of who you are.
Show others how much you care for them by listening deeply to what they have to say. A social experience feeds your mind as well as your spirit.
Cancer: Today is a 5.
This is not a good day to go looking for trouble. A boss or a powerful client is ready to shoot at anything that moves. Avoid submitting work that is less than perfect.
Sign up for a class today, or perhaps plan to study the art of vacationing. You have far more creative energy than the task at hand requires of you. Even as your mind wanders, maintain the illusion of being busy.
Virgo: Today is a 7.
Selfish activity is favored today. Get as wild as you want but not in situations where discretion is advised. There are some people whose job it is to keep you from having too much fun.
Libra: Todav is a 5.
Today promises to be uneventful. You find yourself lost in fantasies of how much better your life could be If you have all this extra time on your hands, why not actually do something about it?
Scorpio: Today is a 6.
Sagittarius: Today is a 7.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
Today overachievement is a little too close to simply overdoing it. Relax your body from its usual fight-or-flight setting. Eat food that will refresh and energize you instead of slow down you.
Aquarius: Today is a 7.
Pisces: Today is a 5.
Aquarians who work in advertising and communication will have a good day. Test your message on a focus group before taking it public. One misplaced word can make all the difference.
Keep an eye on the contractor who is doing work around your home. Watch out for a serious misunderstanding at your place of business. People may have widely differing visions of the same idea.
Possessive behavior is out of character for Pisces, but you can't seem to help yourself today. Conceal that which you would prefer not to share. Avoid ill feelings if someone accidentally crosses your boundaries.
K-State player awaits criminal-damage trial
MANHATTAN — Kansas State basketball player Manny Dies has pleaded guilty to criminal property damage. Similar charges against another player have been dropped.
Dies and Pero Vasiljevic were scheduled for trial yesterday on charges of assault and criminal trespass. Dies also faced a charge of criminal damage. All of the charges were misdemeanors.
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
Dies pleaded guilty to one count of criminal damage and agreed to pay for repairs to an apartment door. The charges against Vasiljevic were dropped. Dies entered the plea Oct. 27, the Riley County attorney's office said. He will be sentenced Dec. 1.
On May 5, the two went to the home of Todd Stewart, a columnist for the "Collegian," K-State's student newspaper, to confront him about two columns he had written that were critical of Dies. In one, Stewart called Dies the worst player in college basketball.
Neither Dies nor Vasiljevic played in K-State's two exhibition games, and coach Tom Asbury had not said by yesterday morning whether the two would play Friday in the Wildcats' season opener against Western Carolina on Friday.
Stewart told police the players kicked in his door and threatened him before he escaped.
COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- Texas A&M coach Tony Barone announced yesterday the signing of 6-foot-10 center Joe White of San Antonio Taft High School to a national letter of intent.
Texas A&M receives White's letter of intent
White is ranked the top prep center in Texas by "Hoop Scoop Magazine." "It came down to New Mexico and

A&M, but I wanted to help A&M win the Bjg 12." White said.
The retired couple from Rush City paid a dollar from their pockets for each of more than 200 hankies — their answer to the "Homer Hankies" waved by Twins fans during the 1991 World Series. These hankies read, "Just say hell no to taxpayer-funded pro sports. Ticked-off taxpayer."
The Neumanns said they were sports fans but grew tired of the push to spend taxpayer money for professional sports stadiums. The Minnesota Legislature will go into a special session today to consider building a new roofless stadium for the Twins.
Barone said, "White is a premier big man."
The Minnesota Vikings also say they need a new stadium, and St. Paul wants a hockey arena for a new NHL team.
A&M women's coach Candi Harvey also announced the signing of all-state guard LaToya Rose of Magnolia, Ark.
"Where's it going to end?" Carol Neumann said. "We had an outdoor stadium. They tore it down."
As for the prospect of the Twins being sold and moving south, she said, "Let them leave town. I can cheer for the Yankees."
US West spokeswoman Mary Hisley said hundreds of thousands of calls overloaded the Capitol phone system, causing some lines to go dead temporarily.
The Neumanns weren't the only Minnesota sending a similar message.
KIEV, Ukraine — Ukrainian soccer authorities suspended Serhiy Nahornyak until the year 2000 yesterday after the national-team player became the first to test positive for a banned substance in the World Cup qualifying matches.
The tests, given after a 2-0 loss to Croatia on Oct. 29, showed traces of the masking agent Bromantan, according to soccer's international governing body, FIFA.

The Soccer Federation of Ukraine said the national team had no connection with the incident, blaming Nahorynak and the doctor of his team, Dnipro Dniproetrovsk.
The federation said the doctor had been harned from Ukrainian soccer.
The organization said that the doctor recommended and gave Nahorynak medicine containing Bromantan for treatment of an unspecified illness before he reported to the national team to prepare for the Croatia game and that Nahorynak had taken some the night before the match in Zagreb.
Czyz pleads innocent to drunk-driving charge
OLD BRIDGE, N.J.—Bobby Czyz, a fighter turned TV analyst, pleaded innocent to charges he was driving drunk when he sideswiped another car.
Cyzz, whose last fight was a 1996 loss to Evander Holyfield, also is charged with refusing to take a breath test and improper use of dealer license plates.
He said that Czyz, 35, agreed to take the breath test after calling Pope shortly after his arrest but that police said it was too late.
"Bobby's never been charged with something like this before," said his lawyer, Anthony J. Pope Jr.
"There's really no reason not to let him take it." Pope said.
Czyz appeared as a commentator on Showtime Saturday during the Holyfield-Michael Moorer title fight.
Old Bridge police arrested Czyz, charged him and then released him pending a Jan. 7 hearing in Municipal Court.
The accident happened about 12:30 a.m. M, nov. 3 as Czyz was driving on Route 35 in Monmouth County. He swerved and struck the left rear fender of a car driven by Mario Lombardo, said police.
Neither Lombardo nor Czyz was injured in the accident.
