Murray alleges that Porter was asked whether Christina school board meeting in Marathon. Board members and the superintendent will have a full agenda of items to discuss that have been on the boil since the last meeting on Sept. 24. Chief among these issues is McPherson, director of assessment and accountability, would be receiving a raise in her new, dual capacity as Poinciana Elementary School principal. The inspector general of the state Department of Education, to whom Murray complained, has kicked the complaint back to the district for School Board Chairman Andy Griffiths to handle.

ROB O’NEAL/The Citizen Zombie Bike Ride organizers and city officials reported as many as 7,000 to 8,000 riders in this year’s event, which smashed last year’s numbers. KEY WEST Citizen Staff ON THE RADIO See RESTORE, Page 3A Officials: More than 7,000 zombies along for this year’s ride BY ADAM LINHARDT For more events and information, go to the Official Fantasy Fest guide online at www.keysnews.com. A local committee, tasked with making recommendations about how to spend millions of dollars coming to the Florida Keys, will hold its first meeting in months to discuss formulas to distribute the money. The Monroe County Commission selected the Local Advisory Committee earlier this year to make recommendations on how to spend $11 million in money from federal Cleanwater Act fines levied on BP and Transocean for the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The funds are part of the Gulf of Mexico Restore Act. Any doubts as to the Zombie Bike Ride’s popularity were buried Sunday night as police and organizers reported as many as 8,000 took part, and thousands more lined the streets to cheer the passing undead. The crew at We Cycle bike shop was still in a daze Monday morning after the event shattered last year’s participation record. Last year: About 2,800 pretend rotting corpses rose from the cemetery and made the ride. This year: Unofficial counts Sunday suggested between 7,600 and 8,000 riders, according to Key West police and We Cycle bike shop organizers Evan Haskell, Chris Needham and Marky Pierson. That figure was based on an unofficial head count taken on South Roosevelt Boulevard by Key West International Airport, Haskell said. “I was telling people to expect maybe 4,000 to 5,000 people this year,” Haskell said. “Those were the high estimates. Police and the sheriff’s office did a fantastic job working with literally more than double the number of people.” See RIDE, Page 5A ISLAMORADA Coast Guard rescues 2 BY ADAM LINHARDT Mark Senmartin talks about his candidacy for Marathon city council.

The two people, it was unclear Monday if it was two men or a man and a woman, boarded a life raft and were able to call 911 with a cellphone about 1:50 a.m., said Coast Guard spokesman Ensign Max Franco. Monroe County dispatchers routed the call to Coast Guard Sector Key West watchstanders, who launched a response boat from Station Islamorada. Where the two rescued people live was not known, Franco said. BY TIMOTHY O’HARA Citizen Staff Organizers plan to talk to other Florida cities before making any decision about signing a five-year agreement to keep the powerboat races in the Southernmost City. The Key West World Powerboat Championship has been held here for 33 years, but founder John Carbonell is talking to leaders in Sarasota and Clearwater about moving the races to one of those towns, he said. Following a meeting last week with Carbonell to discuss logistics of this year’s event, Key West commissioners directed staff to negotiate a deal to keep the races here. However, Carbonell wants “something attached to it,” but declined to tell The Citizen exactly what he wants. “I don’t just want something that is going to tie me to Key West for five years,” Carbonell said. “I need to know what all ROB O’NEAL/The Citizen three cities have to offer.

Travis William Iverson, 34, was charged with burglary and felony assault. The alleged victim told a deputy he awoke sometime early Saturday after Iverson entered his boat and began choking him as he slept, reports say. The two men struggled and Iverson hit the other man several times in the face while making comments about the victim’s girlfriend who recently died, reports say. “The city of Key West should put cigarette receptacles all up and down Duval Street.

Parker was southbound on U.S. 1 at 7:30 p.m. when a 1998 Honda driven by Joan Ibarra, 19, of Key Largo, was attempting to make a left onto the highway from Linda Drive, but turned into the path of Parker, FHP reports say. A passenger in Parker’s vehicle, Teresa Lynn Rizzo, 43, of Key Largo, was ejected and airlifted to Ryder Trauma Center in Miami. Ibarra was taken to Mariners Hospital in Tavernier. Alcohol was not believed to be a factor in the crash. It was unknown if Parker or Rizzo were wearing seat belts, but Ibarra was, reports say. The southbound lanes of U.S. 1 were closed for about four years.

This will be the first time the committee has met since 33 local government agencies and private groups submitted $48 million worth of applications for funding. The committee will eventually make recommendations on which and how many of the 33 projects to fund. Committee member Bill Kelly realizes the committee can’t support funding all projects, even partially, Advance Continued from Page 1A ing of District 3 member Ed Davidson, is calling for the board to investigate. Both are also decrying what they characterize as Porter’s perceived indifference or outright hostility to both the local media, and regular public records requestors such as Murray. A Citizen editorial on Sunday called on the district to adhere to public records policies, and provide greater transparency to the public. On Monday Davidson indicated that he was attempting to add an 11th hour motion to the agenda, dealing with the issue. “I hope to lay to rest any doubt in the minds of the administration or the public that the school board will insist that everyone in the administration will embrace the transparency requirements of the Florida public records statutes and the Sunshine Laws, without reservations — both of which default in favor of transparency and full disclosure in any borderline circumstances,” Davidson said. “That’s why I have requested that this item be added to the agenda, for cause, rather than let these issues continue to fester and distract the board from other important deliberations.” John Dick, whose question sparked Murray’s initial complaint, is taking a wait-and-see attitude to Porter’s anticipated response. “I think the super is going to touch on [Murray’s complaint] in his report, and I’m going to defer to him, to see where he’s going with this,” Dick said, adding “I don’t believe that The Citizen editorial should dictate our policies. The Citizen editorial board has changed drastically from the days when they helped us clean up the financial mess.” Porter on Monday offered few clues as to the course his comments on the matter might take. “I’ll be addressing the more recent issues associated with public records,” Porter said. “I want to also be respectful that the complaint process is properly backed by the board chair, and I haven’t had time to talk to Griffiths about how he wants to handle that since I’ve been back.” Porter just returned from two weeks of personal leave. At today’s meeting, for the first time, citizens will be allowed input prior to the discussion of consent agenda items. As far as agenda business: • The board will discuss Porter’s recent first-year evaluation, which netted the super a “C” rating, as well as Porter’s strategic plan for the district. • The board will also vote on whether to accept the district Audit and Finance Committee’s Monroe County itself, all submitted applications for funding. Key Colony Beach requested $6.6 million for canal restoration, wastewater and stormwater projects, according to its application. Monroe County requested $6 million for stormwater, canal restoration and mooring field projections. Key West asked for $8.6 million for the revitalization of the Truman Waterfront, said county Legislative Affairs Director Lisa Tennyson, who oversees the Local Advisory Committee. Marathon requested $14 million for canal and tidal restoration projects, and for the redevelopment of Sunset recommendation of the firm of McGladrey LLP to conduct a long-planned forensic audit of the Horace O’Bryant School construction project. The board is likely to rubber-stamp the recommendation, though Dick said that he would have liked to know more about the process behind the decision. “I would have liked to see the scoresheets for all of the [bidding companies,] but I do have good faith in the members of the AFC,” Dick said. “I might ask some questions, but I don’t think I’m going to challenge their findings.” Davidson is pleased to see the audit moving forward, but wants to ensure that the board is kept Park, which leads to the Old Seven Mile Bridge, Tennyson said. Several local and national nonprofit organizations have requested funding as well. The Nature Conservancy asked for $1.3 million for coral nursery and coral restoration projections to be run in conjunction with Mote Marine Lab and the Coral Restoration Foundation, Tennyson said. The Key Largo-based Reef Environmental Education Foundation has requested $630,000 to continue its efforts to eradicate invasive lionfish populations, according to the group’s application.

I will announce something as soon as I can. I want this resolved.” Carbonell cited declining revenues and reduced sponsorships for the event as a reason to look elsewhere. He has had to haggle with many of the hoteliers to get free rooms for boat race event staff, and some businesses that benefit from the influx of visitors are not willing to pitch in to make the races happen, he said. Also, the Monroe County Tourist Development Council recently decided to reduce its funding of next year’s races by $20,000, going from $120,000 to $100,000, Carbonell said. During last year’s races, Key West hotels were operating at between 70 to 98 percent occupancy levels. Tourist Development Council records indicate hotel revenue was $7.2 million during that week, but staff could not attribute all of the occupancy directly to the boat races, they said.

MAITLAND/EDITOR NANCY SCHMOHL BECKWITH ROBERT CINTRON JR. KEN DOMANSKI SHIRLEY FREEMAN TODD GERMAN Placement test law doesn’t make grade ollege placement tests serve a purpose. They work as a compass for both the student and the learning institution, providing academic direction. Remedial classes serve a similar purpose, strengthening a student’s academic skills. We understand the state Legislature’s concern over the poor graduation rates of students attending Florida’s 28 state and community colleges. State officials believe remedial classes are contributing to the high attrition rate, requiring students to take classes that take semesters to complete, cost money and do not count toward a student’s graduation credits. The students become frustrated and leave school, legislators say. A study by the Community College Research Center at Columbia University’s Teacher’s College revealed that less than a quarter of students who start in remedial classes go on to earn two-year degrees or transfer to a four-year school. So this year, the Legislature passed a bill removing the must-take tag for tests such as the ACT, SAT and Post Secondary Education Test to determine placement in English, math and reading classes for most students enrolling in state colleges. But students, however, retain the option to take the placement tests. The law goes into effect in the fall of 2014. We believe placement tests are important in determining a student’s academic standing. If the objective is to graduate students, we do not see how eliminating a key measurement of academic ability improves those percentages. If the state’s solution to the frustration factor experienced by students is to quicken the process of their development through tutoring and counseling, let them take regular classes immediately and keep them on pace to graduate. The theory is the C Editorial students can get the extra help they need by working with teachers on an individual basis. It works in theory, but is it practical? The state is asking colleges to blindly accept students without truly understanding their educational level, except through grade transcripts. The onus will be on students to seek out extra tutoring and counseling to improve, and on professors to offer extra academic sessions. Their classes may include a high percentage of students who are not prepared for the course load because there were no testing or remedial sessions. They will have to identify those students and get them the help they need in order to succeed. At the same time, they will need to continue with a lesson plan for the students who are prepared. We all should be concerned about student attrition rates, especially companies seeking a prepared workforce for their needs. But this new law seems to toss to the side a key academic fundamental that if students are not equipped with the right learning fundamentals provided through remedial learning, then they will struggle in a moreadvanced classroom setting, leading to further frustration. We believe adjustments could be made in shortening the length of remedial classes and also offering those classes at reduced tuition rates. We encourage students to take placement tests to determine their educational strengths and weaknesses. Moving right into advanced classes without the proper preparation could escalate the frustration level of students and do little to enhance their chances of reaching their career goals. This is one law that doesn’t make the grade. — Fort Myers News-Press We shouldn’t scorn poultry, geese as ‘birdbrains’ was to capture a bird and take it to the chopping block as my The New York Times dad wielded the ax.

My job as an 11-year-old go straight to it. Even chicks can do basic arithmetic, so that when we beheaded the geese BY NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF S if you shuffle five items in a shell game, they mentally keep track of additions and subtractions and choose the area with the higher number of items. In a number of such tests, chicks do better than toddlers. A lengthy study this year from the University of Bristol in Britain, The Intelligent Hen, lays out the evidence for the chicken as an intellectual. The study also notes that hens are willing to delay gratification if the reward is right. Researchers in one study gave hens the option of two keys, one of which would wait two seconds and then give the hen three seconds of food, and the other would force a wait of six seconds but offer 22 seconds of food. After learning that trade-off, 93 percent of hens preferred the delay with more food. Chickens communicate with different calls to warn about ground predators and birds of prey. Still other calls signal food. Hens are social animals, preferring the companionship of those they know to strangers. They recover more quickly from stress when they are with an acquaintance. Their brains are good at multitasking, for the right eye looks out for food, while the left watches for predators and potential mates. Poultry watch television, and, in one experiment, learned from watching birds on TV how to find food in particular bowls. Look, farmbirds are not Einsteins. But evidence is mounting that they’re smarter than we have assumed, and just because they don’t have big brown eyes doesn’t mean that they should be condemned to spend their lives jammed into tiny cages in stinking, fetid barns, with bodies of dead birds sometimes left rotting beside live ones. I don’t know myself where to draw the lines. I eat meat, so this entire column may be braised in hypocrisy. But just as we try to protect dogs and cats from undue suffering, without necessarily considering them our equals, it makes sense to minimize animal suffering more broadly when we can. So even when there are no salmonella outbreaks, there are good reasons to keep away from wretched birds raised in factory farms. For my part, whenever I’m offered goose, I think back to my childhood and see those brave birds stepping forward, gallantly trying to console their mates. Whatever we make of these animals, we needn’t scorn them as “birdbrains.” Nicholas D. Kristof is a syndicated columnist with The New York Times.

FRIEDMAN The New York Times ’ve spent most of my career covering Middle East politics. I always thought it was its own unique field. But, in the last few weeks, I’ve felt myself to be at a real advantage trying to explain American politics. You see, it turns out that all those years covering Sunnis and Shiites, Israelis and Palestinians, tribal conflicts and “Parties of God” have been the best preparation for covering today’s Washington, D.C., and particularly the tea party. Seriously, you’d get a much better feel for Washington politics today by reading “Lawrence of Arabia” than the Federalist Papers. This is not good news. Let me start by recalling a column I recently wrote from Kansas that noted the parallel between monocultures and polycultures in nature and politics. It began with the scientist Wes Jackson, the president of The Land Institute, explaining that the prairie was a diverse wilderness, with a complex ecosystem that naturally supported all kinds of wildlife, until European settlers plowed it up and covered it with single-species crop farms, mostly wheat, corn or soybeans. Today, noted Jackson, we now use high-density fossil I fuels — in the form of gasolinepowered tractors, pesticides and fertilizers — to sustain these single-species, annual monoculture crops, which are much more susceptible to disease and are exhausting the nutrient-rich topsoil that is the source of all prairie life. During the Dust Bowl years of the 1930s, Jackson reminded, the monoculture crops died but the polyculture prairie, with its diverse ecosystem, survived. What is going on in the Arab world today, I argued, is a relentless push, also funded by fossil fuels, for more monocultures. It’s al-Qaida trying to “purify” the Arabian Peninsula. It’s Shiites and Sunnis, each funded by oil money, trying to purge the other in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. The more these societies become monocultures, the less they spark new ideas and the more susceptible they are to diseased conspiracy theories and extreme ideologies. It is no accident that the Golden Age of the Arab/Muslim world was when it was a thriving polyculture between the 8th and 13th centuries. The same is true of the Republican Party in America today. Tea party conservatives funded by the Koch brothers and other fossil-fuel donors are trying to wipe out whatever is left of the Republican Party’s polyculture and turn it into a monoculture. When Senate Republicans last week first offered their compromise proposal to end the shutdown, Rep. Tim Huelskamp, a tea party congressman from Kansas, warned that “anybody who would vote for that in the House as a Republican would virtually guarantee a primary challenger” from the tea party. In short: They’d be purged in favor of a monoculture. When the GOP was more of a polyculture, it gave us ideas as diverse as the Clean Air Act (Richard Nixon), daring nuclear arms control (Ronald Reagan), cap-and-trade to curb acid rain (George H.W. Bush) and a market-based health care plan (“Romneycare” in Massachusetts). The purge being mounted by the ultraconservative, oil-funded monoculturalists in the GOP today will kill the Republican Party if continued. They will wipe out “all of its topsoil,” all of its rich nutrients, said the environmentalist Hal Harvey. That is, unless the GOP can avoid another lesson of Mideast politics: Extremists go all the way and moderates tend to just go away. With the feeble House speaker, John Boehner, and majority leader, Eric Cantor, consistently appeasing the tea party extremists, it is no wonder the party went over a cliff and almost took the country with it. But here’s another lesson I learned in the Middle East: It is not enough to just stop extremists from acting extreme. You have to take on and take down their ideas. After 9/11, Arab governments were more willing to arrest their violent fundamentalists, but few, if any, were willing to really take on and take down their ideas in public and offer moderate alternatives. Only Muslim moderates can take down Muslim extremists; only mainstream conservatives can take down tea party extremists. It’s striking how much the tea party wing of the GOP has adopted the tactics of the POG — “Party of God” — better known as Hezbollah. For years, Lebanese Shiites were represented by the mainstream Amal party. But in the 1980s, a more radical Shiite militia emerged from the war with Israel: Hezbollah. Under the leadership of Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah began to run for seats in the Lebanese Parliament in 1992 to change its brand. But it still refused to give up its weapons to the Lebanese army, arguing that they were needed for “resistance” against Israel. Ultimately, Hezbollah could only win a minority of seats, but today it uses its arms and pro-Syrian allies in Parliament to block any policy it doesn’t like. As Hanin Ghaddar, the Lebanese Shiite writer who edits NowLebanon.com put it to me: “Hezbollah’s rule is: If we win, we rule, but if you win, you’ll think you rule, but we will do anything and everything to hinder you, and then we rule.” The tea party is not a terrorist group. It has legitimate concerns about debt, jobs and Obamacare. But what was not legitimate was the line it crossed. Rather than persuading a majority of Americans that its policies were right, and winning elections to enact the changes it sought — the essence of our democratic system — the tea party threatened to undermine our nation’s credit rating if the Democrats would not agree to defund Obamacare. Had such strongarm tactics worked, it would have meant that constitutionally enacted laws could be nullified if determined minorities opposed them. It would have meant Lebanon on the Potomac. Which brings up one last parallel: Hezbollah started a war against Israel in 2006, without knowing how to end it. It didn’t matter whether it won or lost. All that mattered was that it “resisted the Zionists.” Hezbollah’s tacit motto was: “I resist, therefore I am.” Early in that 2006 war, Nasrallah boasted of Hezbollah’s “strategic and historical victory,” by holding Israel to a draw. But, in the end, the Israeli army dealt a devastating blow to Hezbollah’s neighborhoods and Lebanon’s infrastructure. After the smoke cleared, Nasrallah admitted that it was a mistake. The tea party started this war on Obamacare with no chance of success and no idea how to end it — similarly intoxicated by a self-image of heroic “resistance.” And just like Nasrallah, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas engaged in magical thinking, declaring that the House vote to defund Obamacare — although rejected by the Senate — was “a remarkable victory.” But most of his Republican colleagues aren’t buying it. They see only ruin. If nothing else comes out of this crisis than the fact that such Hezbollah-like tactics have been discredited in our politics, then the pain of the last few weeks will have been worth it.

Rescue crews were able to find the raft quickly as the pair launched three flares and were waving flashlights, Franco said. “Everyone was OK and they didn’t need medical treatment,” Franco said. It was not clear what caused the boat to sink, but it was recoverable and will have to be commercially salvaged, Franco said. There was no dangerous weather in the area reported by the National Weather Service, said meteorologist Jon Rizzo. “There were some isolated showers and thunderstorms, but everything was well south and west of that area,” Rizzo said. “All precipitation we were watching was between Sand and Sombrero Keys, but nothing farther up. Wind was pretty light.” [email protected] Key West police were on the offensive when planning for this year’s event after the numbers tripled from 2011 to 2012. There about 700 riders in 2011, and 2,800 riders last year, Haskell said. There were no major injuries reported, save a traffic jam at 6 p.m. at South Roosevelt Boulevard from below Flagler Avenue to the Triangle, but no major incidents as the mob of undead made their way from Stock Island to Caroline Street. There were bottlenecks as riders made the left at Bertha Street onto Atlantic Boulevard and near Salute! On the Beach as riders turned from Atlantic Boulevard onto Reynolds Street. Otherwise, police kept the crowd moving without any traffic crashes, police spokeswoman Alyson Crean said. “We knew it was going to be big and it went down as expected from our end,” Crean said, adding that police were expecting the unexpected after the swell in ROB O’NEAL/The Citizen Zombie cyclists make the turn onto A1A Sunday evening en route to Old Town. numbers seen last year. “Marky (Pierson) had been in contact with FDOT (Florida Department of Transportation) and they coned off lanes on South Roosevelt Boulevard, which wasn’t done last year,” Crean said. “So, it went well.” She added that she didn’t have a hard count on the crowd size as many joined the ride as it made its way through the city. “We were anticipating about 4,000 but not the numbers we saw,” said police traffic unit Officer Donny Barrios. “For the most part, it went well. We had some people not paying attention, but for the most part everyone was well-behaved. We’ll definitely need more resources if the crowd keeps growing. They (bicyclists) were coming out of the trees and the woodwork.” The number of zombie bicylists will definitely factor into city logistics more and more in the years ahead, said Assistant City Manager David Fernandez. “This event has grown so exponentially, and we’ll be reaching out to organizers to include them more in the early planning,” Fernandez said. “It seems to be a positive event that families and revelers are really enjoying. So, we’re going to want to find more ways to mitigate traffic and keep it a safe event.” The Zombie Ride grew out of another We Cycle event, the Rock ‘n’ Roll Bike Ride, which also proved to be popular. The expanding ride’s popularity led to an artist’s row with live entertainment this year at We Cycle as thousands arrived early to get body-painted. How did it get so popular so fast? “I think the answer is twofold,” Haskell said. “I think the local community was looking for something a little fresh for Fantasy Fest week. For so many years, so many people work in the service industry this week that they forget to have fun. Some people might find the parade Saturday to be a bit too crowded and don’t always want to brave the crowd, but they can take off a Sunday night and take a two-hour bike ride. “And the other thing is the weird timing of it all,” said Haskell. “Zombies are hot right now.” [email protected] Every Entrée $19.95ea.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama on Monday offered “no excuses” — and little explanation — for the computer bugs still frustrating Americans who are trying to enroll online for insurance plans at the center of his health care law. But software developers tasked with building the site said they saw signs a year ago that the debut could fail. One source of the troubles appears to be the testing procedures employed before the rollout three weeks ago. Several developers of the HealthCare.gov website told The Associated Press they were worried for months about the system’s readiness and whether the software meant to link key computer systems was being properly put through its paces. SPARKS, Nev.

Twenty to 30 students witnessed the tragedy at Sparks Middle School that also left the lone suspected gunman dead, police said. It’s unclear whether the student committed suicide, but authorities say no shots were fired by law enforcement.

Fey quickly turned to showering Burnett with accolades for opening doors for other female comedians. “You mean so much to me,” Fey said. “I love you in a way that is just shy of creepy.” In an interview, Burnett said she was drawn to comedy after realizing how it felt to make people laugh. She went to UCLA with plans to become a journalist, but she took an acting course that put her on stage. “I played a hillbilly woman, and coming from Texas ... it was real easy for me,” she said. “I just made my entrance, and I said, ‘I’m baaack.’ Then they exploded.” “I thought whoa! This feels good,” Burnett said. “I wanted those laughs to keep on coming forever.” Tim Conway, one of Burnett’s co-stars on her variety show, joked that he now spends his time traveling around the country for Burnett to receive awards. “Thank you for being such a friend,” he said, “such a generous person, not with salary, but generous.” Comedian Martin Short also joined the tribute to Burnett. “What is it about redheads on television that make us laugh so much? Carol, Lucille Ball, Donald Trump,” he said. Burnett said it’s a thrill to receive the award named for humorist and satirist Mark Twain and that she’s in good company with past honorees, who include Fey, Bill Cosby, Steve Martin, Lily Tomlin and Ellen DeGeneres. Coming on the heels of the government shutdown, McGarr said it’s nice to bring an “intentionally funny moment” to Washington after weeks of political drama. “You know, serious times call for seriously funny people,” McGarr said. Burnett made a special request that rising comedienne Rosemary Watson, who does impressions of Hillary Clinton and others, be part of the show. Burnett found Watson on YouTube after receiving a fan letter and thought she was funny. “The thing is, you pay it forward,” Burnett said, “because when I got started, somebody gave me a break when I was 21 years old, and I wanted to go to New York.” while on tour and was required sometimes monitoring the singer’s communications and to address Lady Gaga’s needs for handling about 20 bags of throughout the night.

On Sunday, the trailblazing comedienne received the nation’s top humor prize at the Kennedy Center for the Burnett Performing Arts. Top entertainers including Julie Andrews, Tony Bennett, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and others performed in Burnett’s honor as she received the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. The show was taped Sunday and will be broadcast Nov. 24 on PBS stations. “This is very encouraging,” Burnett, 80, deadpanned in accepting the prize. “I mean it was a long time in coming, but I understand because there are so many people funnier than I am, especially here in Washington. “With any luck, they’ll soon get voted out, and I’ll still have the Mark Twain prize.” Fey opened the show with some jokes about the recent government shutdown and about fears over “Obamacare.” “Enough politics.

The Magic won 86-87. No. 18 Louisville seeks rebound at South Florida LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Louisville coach Charlie Strong doesn’t believe his team’s season is lost after one defeat. The American Athletic Conference championship and the automatic BCS bowl berth remain in play for the No. 18 Cardinals (6-1, 2-1) despite Friday’s stunning 38-35 upset loss to Central Florida. But they’ll need help from teams above them in the standings but right now the onus is on the Cardinals to win again. The upside is the schedule seems line up well for them with consecutive road games at South Florida (2-4, 2-0) and winless Connecticut (0-6, 0-2) ahead. Louisville’s challenge now is winning the games it’s supposed to after the devastating loss that dashed lofty hopes of a shot at the national championship and dampened the Heisman Trophy buzz for junior quarterback Teddy Bridgewater.

DeRoche shot an even par 72 on Monday in the one-day 18-hole Regional Championship, a stroke behind the Region Champion from Cardinal Gibbons, which advances the Conchs senior to the state tournament as an individual player for the third time in his high school career. DeRoche said he stay around 1-under par for a majority of the round. He birdied back-to-back holes on the 10th and 11th, the first coming on a roughly 50-foot putt and the second on a chip in, to bring his score to 2-under, but a pair of subsequent bogies left him at even par for the round. “It was a good day.

The report will be released at 10 a.m. EDT, the NCAA said. If the case follows typical protocols, the Hurricanes will not receive their copy of the decision until Tuesday morning, shortly before the public release. Miami is off to a 6-0 start, and the school’s No. 7 ranking matches its highest since 2005. BOSTON — Red Sox left-hander Jon Lester will start Game 1 of the World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals. That’s the word on Monday from Boston manager John Farrell. Farrell says he hasn’t decided on his entire lineup, but designated hitter David Ortiz will start at least once at first base when the series shifts to St. Louis for the middle three games. There is no DH allowed in the NL park, meaning Ortiz will have to play the field for just the seventh time this season. The Red Sox worked out Monday, two days after eliminating the Detroit Tigers in Game 6 of the AL championship series. Game 1 of the World Series is Wednesday night at Fenway Park. ORLANDO — Major League Soccer President Mark Abbott says that if Orlando’s county commission approves a funding plan for a new downtown soccer stadium, the league will move quickly to draw up an agreement to award it an expansion franchise. Abbott met with commissioners yesterday, in advance of their vote today on whether to approve use of $20 million in tourism taxes to go toward funding the $84 million cost of the stadium. City officials approved the plan earlier this month to help the USL Pro League’s Orlando City Soccer Club build a soccer-specific stadium. The team would contribute the rest of the funding for construction. Orlando City has been lobbying to become a MLS expansion team, but currently plays in the outdated Florida Citrus Bowl. JULIO CORTEZ/The Associated Press New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning (10) scrambles during the first half of an NFL football game against the Minnesota Vikings last night in East Rutherford, N.J. The Giants were leading 3-0 with three minutes left in the first quarter. NFL COLLEGE FOOTBALL Tackle McKinnie acquired UCF gets by Dolphins from Ravens ranking, new expectations BY STEVEN WINE The Associated Press DAVIE — Tackle Bryant McKinnie was traded Monday by the Baltimore Ravens to the Miami Dolphins, who needed to shore up a leaky offensive line. The Ravens will receive a conditional late-round draft pick, Baltimore coach John Harbaugh said. The 34-year-old McKinnie will likely compete for playing time with right tackle Tyson Clabo, who allowed two fourthquarter sacks in Miami’s loss Sunday to Buffalo and has given up seven sacks this season. “It’s a good move for us, good move for Bryant,” Harbaugh said. The Dolphins (3-3) haven’t won in a month. In the past three games, they’ve allowed 12 sacks and committed seven turnovers — all by harried quarterback Ryan Tannehill. The team’s downward spiral threatens to gain momentum with the next two games against division leaders New England and Cincinnati. Tannehill leads the NFL with 26 sacks, but coach Joe Philbin resisted any temptation to shake up the offensive line when the team had a bye before the Buffalo game. Tannehill’s fumble when he was sacked by Mario Williams in the closing minutes led to a Bills field goal that gave them a 23-21 victory. Williams used a power rush on the play to beat Clabo, who took the blame. The 6-foot-8, 352-pound McKinnie missed the first day of training camp this summer for being overweight. He started BY KYLE HIGHTOWER, The Associated Press MEL EVANS/The Associated Press Baltimore Ravens tackle Bryant McKinnie stands on the field before an NFL football game against the Philadelphia Eagles in 2012. the first five games but lost his job to Eugene Monroe and was inactive for the first time in his career for the Ravens’ two most recent games. Last year McKinnie came off the bench during the regular season, then was a key figure in Baltimore’s run to the Super Bowl title, starting all four playoff games.

The other two districts are not swimming until Friday so we won’t know until next week, about Sunday or Monday,” explained Bosco. Nothing is guaranteed said Bosco. “Last year the top eight individuals went and we had to wait and see on the relays, this year two are guaranteed and then it’s the next eight for a total of 24 swimmers,” said Bosco. “I would say if they finish in the top four, we have a really good chance of advancing to the regionals. For relays, the top relay automatically goes and it’s the next 12 go for a pool of 16. It’s a little bit different this year.” Marathon Coach Sarah Maschal, now in her seventh season, has a good feeling about her team’s chances at districts. ORLANDO — UCF came into this season used to being overlooked nationally as it chased meaningful attention in a football landscape that includes three more tradition-rich in-state programs. Now, following an upset of a top-10 team, the Knights must quickly get used to a new life with a target on their backs. UCF entered the national rankings Sunday at No. 21 in The Associated Press poll and No. 25 in the USA Today coaches’ poll. It is the Knights’ first rankings since the final polls in 2010. But more importantly, at its halfway point UCF (5-1, 2-0 American Athletic Conference) is now the front runner to capture the league’s at-large berth to the BCS, armed with a relatively soft schedule the rest of the regular season. They host winless Connecticut on Saturday. “(The players) probably think they should have been ranked at the beginning of the year,” Knights coach George O’Leary said Sunday, smiling. “But I won’t make a big thing about that, because they know the ultimate goal hasn’t changed. I keep waving in front of them that it’s to win the conference. That’s what we’re concerned about, and wherever we end up in the rankings if we win the conference, it’ll be great. “But the conference and to win the conference championship is the No. 1 goal in this football program each and every week.” UCF is 4-0 away from Orlando this season, its best road start GARRY JONES/The Associated Press Central Florida quarterback Blake Bortles (5) launches this pass in the direction of running back Storm Johnson (8) in the game against unbeaten Louisville on Friday. Central Florida upset Louisville 38-35. At right is offensive lineman Chris Martin (70). in program history. The Knights chances to secure the AAC’s BCS berth will come mostly in friendly confines, though. Four of their final six games at home. Also, with the exception of Houston (at UCF on Nov. 9) and rival South Florida (at UCF on Nov. 29), who both are 2-0 in AAC play, the remaining four opponents on Knights’ schedule are just 1-6 in conference play. The new attention and BCS projections are all flattering, sure, but it is not a daydream O’Leary is particularly interested in entertaining at this point.” “Not really,” O’Leary said. “I spoke to the team last week (and) said this is a conference game and if you win this one you control your own destiny. You don’t have to worry about someone else beating somebody; you just got to take care of business each week. The players understand that. They really do.” The Knights are the secondyoungest team in the country with only eight seniors, but have gotten lots of leadership so far from a junior class that includes quarterback Blake Bortles and running back Storm Johnson, who both came up big in the Louisville victory. Likewise, a win at Penn State and three-point loss to South Carolina has helped his team grow up in a hurry, O’Leary said. He expects them to take on the new challenge well because of that experience. “It’s a young team, but it’s a very mature team as far as taking what they read and taking what they see on TV, and understanding that not every team is the same,” O’Leary said. “And every team handles things different. And we have to handle it a certain way, because we’re young at certain positions that play need to be overachievers right now in this program.” About 200 fans greeted the Knights when they arrived just before 4 a.m. Saturday after the Louisville victory, a reception not previously seen to that extent by a fan base that was enjoying the program’s first victory over a Top 10 team. It’s ushered in a new reality, though, and one O’Leary has already spoken to his assistants about reinforcing this week. “It was a great win, but you got to build on the win,” he said. “We played one game at a time and that game’s over. We’ve enjoyed the win, but now you’ve got each week (where) you’re the target. So you better understand that.” Alabama, Florida State top 1st BCS standings BY RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press Alabama and Florida State hold the top two spots in the first BCS standings of the season. Oregon was a close third behind secondplace Florida State. The Seminoles (.9348 BCS average) are coming off their biggest win of the season, a 51-14 victory at previously unbeaten Clemson. The Ducks (.9320) have only played one team that was ranked “We’re working to get four of the boys in a relay team and get Will (Wolfe) and Aaron (Grube) individually,” said Maschal. “Plus we want to get Malorie in the 50 free and Noemi Fekete my little seventh grader. I’m hoping she makes it in the IM. Hopefully we’ll get eight people qualified, hopefully.” Coral Shores’ Evin Zekthi was the most successful swimmer in Monroe County last year. The junior qualified at the time, but could get a boost in the next two weeks with games against UCLA and at Stanford. Ohio State is a more distant fourth, followed by Missouri in the standings released Sunday night. The top two teams in the final standings after the end of the regular season play in the Rose Bowl for the national title in January. Alabama is a comfortable No. 1 on the strength of being topranked by a wide margin in both eighth in the 200-yard freestyle and, naturally, wants to do even better. “The bar is pretty high right now. I’m trying to go 1:39.60 in the 200-yard freestyle and 49 flat in the 100 butterfly at states,” said the junior. “I’m trying to place top three in both of those. I’ve got to work my butt off like I never have before. We’ve been doing workouts three mornings a week and five afternoons every week so we’re looking the USA Today coaches’ poll and Harris poll. The two-time defending champion Crimson Tide is second in the computer ratings. If the Tide can stay unbeaten, it should reach the BCS championship game for the third straight year and for the fourth time in five seasons. The polls count for two-thirds of a BCS grade. Florida State is No. 1 in the computer ratings and third in each poll. at eight workouts on average, but it’s going to take a lot of work pushing a lot of yardage, being the best you can trying to reach your full potential.” For the Conchs, senior Derrick Allen has a good chance of qualifying in the 50yard freestyle, but will have to drop his time to make it in the 100 free. Allen, along with the relay team members of Chris Bujak, Marcus Brisson and Isaiah Green should qual- ify for the 200-yard freestyle relay. Green should also qualify individually in the 100-yard butterfly. Kimberlee Reed made it to regionals last year in the 50 free and should make a return visit in that event along with teammates in the 200 relay. Marathon and Coral Shores dive in for a 10:30 start this morning, and the Conchs swim the first event at 1 p.m. on Wednesday.

Lichtenberg, an 18thcentury German physicist and philosopher, wrote, “The greatest events occur without intention playing any part in them; chance makes good mistakes and undoes the most carefully planned undertaking. The world’s greatest events are not produced -- they happen.” That assertion would not meet with universal agreement. However, at the bridge table, missing a chance to make a contract can be a bad mistake. Let’s see if you can produce the winning line in today’s deal. South is in three no-trump. West leads the spade queen. How should declarer play? South’s two-no-trump response showed a balanced 10-12 points with no fourcard major. (South might have made a limit raise in diamonds, especially if via a two-diamond inverted minor-suit raise, but we much prefer no-trump to a minor. Yes, I have noticed that five diamonds is laydown.) First, a defensive point. East must either signal encouragement with his seven or, even better, throw the king onto the table. West would not have led the queen without the jack and nine. South starts with seven top tricks: one spade, three hearts, one diamond and two clubs. But given that his spade ace will have evaporated by trick two, he cannot afford to lose the lead until he is home. The natural instinct is to take the diamond finesse. But there is a second, admittedly unlikely, chance. Before gam- bling on the diamonds, cash dummy’s club ace and king. Here the queen drops and declarer has nine winners via one spade, three hearts, one diamond and four clubs. If the club queen does not appear, South crosses to his hand with a heart and runs the diamond 10.

It’s not that I want to go out and have a different man every night of the week -- just some options. I’m currently in a polyamorous relationship, so seeing other men is OK. But my boyfriend is now asking me why I feel the way I do because he is considering becoming monogamous again. I crave something different from man to man and seek whatever the other one doesn’t have. I have been with my fair share of guys, yet there doesn’t seem to be one person who has all the qualities I need in my life. Should I just stay single and noncommittal forever? -- FICKLE IN FORT WAYNE DEAR FICKLE: Perhaps not forever, but for now, yes, until you meet someone who has more of the qualifications you’re looking for. When you do, you may finally realize that in successful relationships some degree of compromise is always involved. DEAR ABBY: I recently married a wonderful woman I have been friends with for years. I was always secretly in love with her. We are very happy together. The only problem is that her ex-husband, from whom she has been divorced for four years, was violent. If I try to brush her hair away from her face or make a sudden movement of any kind, she flinches or panics. I have never been violent with anyone, and I know she has PTSD from her past marriage. How should I sensitively broach the subject of counseling to deal with this serious issue? -- CONCERNED IN THE MIDWEST DEAR CONCERNED: When it happens again, tell your wife calmly that you know it’s a reflex and see if you can get her to tell you why it happens. At that point you could suggest she talk to a counselor because you love her and would never hurt her, and when she flinches, it hurts YOU that she’s still carrying around this heavy baggage. DEAR ABBY: I am 25. My husband is 50, and we have been married for three years. We are in a healthy relationship, raise his 12-year-old together and are trying for our own children. We have plans for the rest of our lives, are in good health, have regular checkups, and our life insurance and estate planning are in order. But, Abby, sometimes I find myself worrying about his age. I cry when I contemplate spending a chunk of my life alone because I don’t think I could ever love anyone else as strongly as I do him. My husband is my rock, my reason for living, and I’m grateful for every moment I have with him. I’m psychologically well otherwise. These sad feelings don’t last longer than a few hours. Is this normal? Should I talk with someone about it? Should I just tell my husband my feelings and remind him how much he means to me? -- HAPPILY MARRIED IN HENDERSON, NEV. DEAR HAPPILY MARRIED: Your feelings are normal for a woman who is fully invested emotionally in her husband. However, if your anxiety over the possibility of losing him increases, by all means talk to a licensed mental health professional about it. As to your last question, whether you should confide your feelings to him, it would be a beautiful compliment to let him know you don’t take his importance in your life for granted or the joy he has brought you. But don’t be surprised if, when he hears you say it, he says the same thing back to you.
