HOROSCOPES
Aries: Today is an 8.
A lot of talking's going on, but not much action You need to stir that up. Figure out what you all want to do and then how you'll pay for it. Let everybody pitch in on that one.
Taurus: Today is a 7.
Gemini; Today is an 8.
You should be kind of used to this by now. You're stopped dead in your tracks again. Luckily, you're patient and determined. Learn to rely more on your partner, and you'll be successful in the long run.
Your workload is increasing; free time will be rare soon. What would you really enjoy before that happens? A walk in the park with a friend? The sweet fragrance of the wild rose? Don't put it off any longer; do it now!
Cancer; Today is a 7.
You're under a bit of stress today. Something is uncomfortable, and it's not your fault. Is there a leak in your budget that you could plug? If you can find one and plug it, you'll feel a whole lot better.
Leo: Today is a 6.
You may feel slightly overwhelmed. Somebody else could be taking the lead. This is not how you'd like to proceed, but don't put up much of a fight. It might be wise to let somebody else drive for a change.
Virao: Today is an 8.
It's time for you to work hard and to make the money. You may have to use your imagination, too. First, go back to the manual. Then, after you don't find the answer there, figure out how to solve the problem on your own. you'll wow 'em when you do.
Libra: Today is an 8.
Sagittarius: Today is a 7.
You look good today. A close friend would like to be with you, so acquiesce. You have other things to do, of course, but none of them are as important. Shift your schedule around so there's time enough for love.
Scorpio: Today is an 8.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
Paperwork is your theme today. "Oh, goody," you're probably saying to yourself. (NOT!) it could turn out OK, however. Maybe you can even find a way to work from your home. You'd love that. And, yes, paperwork is required.
What would you like to be doing five years from now? With whom? What kind of environment? How much will you be making? How will you spend your free time? Visualize your future now but keep it to yourself. It's still in the formulation phase.
Aquarius: Today is a 7.
This would be a good day for a conversation with an expert. You could come up with some good ideas. You might increase your income substantially or save some money. Make your future a little more secure, too, while you're at it.
Pisces: Today is an 8.
You should be able to make great strides forward. Something's beckoning and urging you to take a risk. Your loved ones think you can make it, so trust them. Thank them for their faith. Do the homework, too, of course.
Your mind could be buzzing. You're worried about everything. Will you have to change your routine? Does anybody care what you think? Settle down and breathe deeply. Instead of fretting, speak up. Your input is important in making sure the good guys win.

CLEVELAND — Before Mike Hargrove became their manager, the Indians were baseball's biggest joke, and Cleveland was a wasteland for players, coaches and managers. It was not the place to be.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL
Throwing, receiving duo upsets Michigan
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Purdue had the right combination to snap Michigan State's perfect season.
Chris Daniels was on the receiving end of the combination, setting Big Ten records for receptions and receiving yardage as No. 20 Purdue upset No. 5 Michigan State 52-28 Saturday to knock the Spartans from the undefeated list.
Daniels had 21 catches for 301 yards and three touchdowns. That helped Drew Brees finish with a season-high 509 yards and five touchdowns.
Brees threw all five of his touchdown passes in the first half when the Boilermakers (5-2, 2-2) opened a 35-14 lead.
BASKETBALL
Friends, former coaches remember Chamberlain
LOS ANGELES — Wilt Chamberlain was remembered Saturday more for his curiosity, intellect and quiet generosity than his unparalleled abilities on the basketball court.
Laughter punctuated the 1 1/2-hour memorial service at City of Angels Church of Religious Science,
where about 800 people celebrated the 7-foot-1. Hall of Famer.
Chamberlain died Tuesday of apparent heart failure. He was 63. His body was cremated.
"In Wilt's life, there were no sad songs. He lived his to the fullest," said Meadowlark Lemon, a Chamberlin teammate on the Harlem Globetrotters.
Others attending included Bill Russell, whose Boston Celtic teams twice beat Chamberlain's teams in the NBA finals.

Smith's quick feet, passes keys to Jayhawk offense
Continued from page 1B
It took 1:54 for the Aguiles to score those 21 points, and Kansas was down 24-10.
McCown to wide receiver Chris Taylor two plays into the second half.
"Points are momentum breakers." Allen said.
the points did more than just break the momentum, they completely turned the game around. Kansas had 80 yards of offense in the second half, while the Aggies rolled up almost 300 more. It was
nasses for 233 vards.
the second straight week Kansas surrendered more than 500 yards of offense, while the offense couldn't get past the 300-vard mark.
It was the same mix of bad luck and blown coverage that doomed the Jayhawks last week against Kansas State. Big plays — particularly big passing plays — were what hurt most. Completions of 78, 44 and 41 yards were part of McCounn's career passing day. He was the main reason the Jayhawks were down at halftime, completing 14 of 16
Kansas settled down after the half played tighter man-to-man coverage and tried to take away McCown's passing alleys. It worked — safety Carl Nesmith intercepted two passes sitting back in zone coverage — but the defense couldn't stop the run.
The offense had its share of problems too. No Kansas running back had more than 40 yards, and no receiver had more than 30 yards or five catches.
Quarterback Deylen Smith was what kept the Jayhawks going. They scored
once in the second half after Nesmith's interception, mostly because Smith was able to elude Aggie defenders long enough to find tight end Sean McDermott for a 26-yard touchdown pass.
Smith completed 17 of 29 passes for 141 yards, but his quick feet were his biggest asset.
He wasn't sacked until late in the fourth quarter, and he was more comfortable running the ball than he had been earlier.
