HOROSCOPES
Aries: Today is a 5.
You're a little bit pressed move. Moving some things in and out? Somebody else has a huge "honey-do" list for you. It's not easy for you to follow orders, but today it's your best bet.
Taurus: Todav is a 9.
This is a good day for you to learn, grow, teach and compromise. Hmm, that may not have been what you had in mind. You wanted to win. Well, that might happen, but it probably won't before you make a concession. Give up something you can do without.
Gemini: Today is a 5.
If you put in a little extra effort, you might make a good return on an investment. Be careful with your spending; share expenses when possible. Don't volunteer to pay for more than your share. Be extravagant some other time. Today it's wiser to scrimp.
Cancer: Today is a 9.
You look good today. You should be relaxed, calm, cool and collected. You'll even breeze past someone who is being a bit of a jerk. Sometimes this kind of behavior is upsetting, but today ignore it. Consider the source.
Virgo: Today is an 8.
Leo: Today is a 4.
You could be forced to finish something you've started. You have lots of other things you'd rather do, but there's no time for any of that now. Somebody else is cracking the whip, and you'd be wise to jump!
Libra: Today is a 5.
Scorpio: Today is an 8.
You need to be careful today. You'll have to work harder than you think you should, but this could pay pretty well. You're not likely to win the lottery, but you could get post a financial difficulty. Be respectful and keep busy!
You're basking in a complimentary glow, so you should feel and look great. Are you already friends with your neighbors? If not, this is a great day to begin. That's a good way to make your neighborhood safe, and it's also a lot of fun!
Sagittarius: Today is a 4.
You are blessed today. You can see the overview easily, and that helps you make a wise decision. Truth and justice will prevail, especially since you're on the job. Do your best to make sure that happens, and your efforts will be greatly appreciated.
You might be worried about money. Do you have to spend more than you have? Is it time to pay back a debt? If so, you'll feel better once this is handled. You might be able to work a deal that's better for all concerned. Consult a Taurus or a Cancer.
Capricorn: Today is an 8.
Pisces: Today is a 10.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
You get the prizel Your intuition is excellent! You're kind, considerate and thoughtful. Everybody loves you They can't help it Fuss over people and thank them for being in your life, and they'll do the same back. You are a gift, and what you send out comes back at you.
You need to spend more time with your mate or your partner. The two of you should put your heads together and plan the next few days.
Don't make any decisions on your own, or you might have to change them later.
There's work to be done. You're drawing attention, but not much money. This is one of those days when you're paying dues. You're overworked and underpaid, but that's OK. This could turn out to be time well spent. Think of it as an investment.
COLOR GUARD
Damage to silk flags totals more than $240
The damage bill is in for the eight Kansas color guard flags that were damaged at a halftime performance during Saturday's game at Memorial Stadium.
The flags were damaged when the Missouri football team took the field early.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Randy Timm, color guard coordinator, said that six of the eight damaged flags were ruined and that the flags cost $40 each.
"The flags are made of silk, and it's just an expensive fabric," he said. "You have to be very careful with them, and we are. It's just unfortunate that the Missouri team ran over them."
Bob Foster, Kansas band director, said that he had received many letters from Missouri fans that said how embarrassed they were of their team's actions.
Melvin Platt, Missouri's band director, also was unhappy with the actions of the Tigers and said that he would help the color guard pay for the flags.

NEW YORK — Umpires will vote next month on whether to keep Richie Phillips and their union or form a new one.
Ballots will be sent Nov. 5 to all 93 major league umpires, including the 22 let go last month, the National Labor Relations Board said yesterday.
Secret-ballot election to decide umpires' union
They will be given three choices; the current union, the new union formed by dissident umpires or neither, NLRB New York regional director Dan Silverman said.
Results of the secret-ballot election will be announced Nov. 30. If no choice gets a majority, a runoff will be held between the top two.
The dissidents want agent Ron Shapiro, who represents Cal Ripken, to negotiate their next labor contract.

OAKLAND, Calif. - Tyrone
In a game matching two clubs with injured starting quarterbacks, Wheatley will try to lead an Oakland Raiders team that features the NFL's top rushing attack against a Miami Dolphins squad that is one of the league's stingiest against the run.
COLLEGE BASKETBALL
Wheatley had his body twisted while being tackled and fumbling in the third quarter of last weekend's game against the New York Jets. He was taken off the field on a cart after trying unsuccessfully to stand up and remained in a hospital until Monday afternoon for examination of a lower back injury.

Team needs positivity to beat 'Huskers
Kansas' offense will try to control the ball by mixing short passes and running Winbush and fullback Moran Norris. Winbush has missed two games because of ankle and knee injuries making Norris the featured back — an unexpected bonus because of his size and strength.

"It's been such a positive added
dimension for us," Allen said. "He doesn't change direction on a dime — more like a manhole cover."
Coming off the 21-0 victory against Missouri last weekend, the Jayhawks have been riding high. They were looking forward to playing Nebraska just moments after the game, and now, Allen has their buying into Nebraska's susceptibility.
"They put on their pads like we
put on our pads." Norris said. "We know that we'll be all right if we just go out there and play well."
The Jayhawks will need a few balls to bounce their way for them to have a chance — and Allen knows it.
"We'll have to get some breaks," he said. "You're going to have to create some turnovers and hope for some breaks."

Kansas traditionally dominates season
great state. No one holds any grudges. The kids just did what they decided was best for them."
It may be true that some things never change, despite all of the talk, Williams said that he did not expect to take home the Big 12 championship without earning it.
"I think we've got a good basketball team," Williams said. "A few years ago, I said we should be considered the favorites, we're the best.
"I'm not that bold right now. I do think we have a chance to be a very good basketball team, and I think we're one of the teams that you should talk about in having a
chance to win the league, but I personally don't think we're the only team that should be talked about."
The All-Big 12 preseason team proves that talent exists outside of Kansas. Besides junior center Eric Chenowith, the team consists of Marcus Fizer of Iowa State; Chris Mihm of Texas; Eduardo Najera of Oklahoma; and Desmond Mason of Oklahoma State.
"There are a lot of good players on a lot of good teams." Nee said.
Although Mihm, who was voted by the coaches as the Big 12 preseason player of the year, and Chenowith, who is considered one of the nation's best centers, may battle for postseason player of the year, both players said that there
were more than a few talented players in the league.
"You can't concentrate on Chris and myself," Chenowith said. "I know they're going to be excited to play us this year, and it's going to be an all-out war."
Oklahoma coach Calvin Sampson said that he thought that there were some teams that could challenge Kansas.
"Kansas has been the flag-bearer for our league in basketball," Sampson said. "Some may not want to admit it, but it's true. But we do have some teams in the league who can get up there with them now and I think that's good for our league."
