What are your thoughts, Abby? If you think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an issue, I will let it go from now on. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; To Follow Or Not To Follow Dear To Follow: Your father comes from a generation in which men were taught it was their duty to protect the females in their family. Your spouse is the husband of a fiercely feminist wife and the father of a daughter cut from the same cloth. Independent women do not need to be followed home unless they request it because they assume they can handle whatever happens themselves â&#x20AC;&#x201D; particularly if they are traveling in twos. You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have it both ways. You say you have a happy marriage. Please give your husband a break. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O.

In theory, your 11 points are enough for a jump to two spades, inviting game, but your king of hearts, trapped in front of the opening bidder, may be worthless. Many experts would jump anyway.

than you. LIBRA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; This is bound to be a wonderful day, Libra, as everybody seems to be in a warm and congenial mood. You and your romantic partner, in particular, are feeling especially close and connected today. If marriage is the process of falling in and out of love, then youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re both definitely in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;inâ&#x20AC;? phase. Enjoy it while it lasts! Spend a quiet day together and cap it off with dinner at an elegant bistro. SCORPIO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; You have much to be grateful for, Scorpio. Why not go out tonight and celebrate with friends? Forget about work and family troubles and kick up your heels. Have a high old time. You deserve the break. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seize these moments when you have the opportunity, you risk becoming a single-minded individual who thinks only of work at the expense of lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other great pleasures. SAGITTARIUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re eager and optimistic today, Sagittarius, which works well with your strong, capable nature. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re likely to find that things begin to click into place at work. Something that has been troubling you for some time suddenly becomes clear. What was once a stumbling block is now a mere bump in the road and easily overcome. All indications are that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be successful at whatever you do now, so dare to dream big. CAPRICORN â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Today should be devoted to paperwork and getting your financial affairs and budgets in order, Capricorn. Once this is done, you can relax in the evening with friends and loved ones. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re especially intuitive right now, so youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to pick up on all the unspoken thoughts and feelings of those around you. AQUARIUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; All financial undertakings have good aspects today, Aquarius. It could be that you have been thinking of starting a new business venture. If so, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re likely to meet the ideal business partner. Keep your eyes and ears tuned as you go about your daily routine. You never know when you might be introduced to that one special person you need in your life. Socialize in the evening with good friends. PISCES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; This is bound to be a wonderful day, Pisces. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking and feeling great and it shows! This is a day of kindness and cooperation. You could find that your family pitches in to help at home without being asked. Your romantic partner might volunteer to clean out the garage and your children start to clean their rooms. This definitely isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t your typical day! Enjoy the harmony that reigns today.

Since 1981 Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve written a monthly column for the ACBLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s magazine. Many have been â&#x20AC;&#x153;over-my-shoulderâ&#x20AC;? tyle. You listen in on my thoughts during a deal. Ninety of the best of these appear n â&#x20AC;&#x153;Play Bridge With Me,â&#x20AC;? my 23rd book, just published. The deals are ntermediate level; the focus is on ogical thinking. At todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four spades, I win the irst heart in dummy and lead a diamond. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t risk losing an early rump finesse; I need a quick pitch or my heart loser. East wins the econd diamond and returns a heart, and I win to discard dummyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last heart on my high diamond. When I inesse in trumps, East wins and exits with a trump.

HOROSCOPE

ARIES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; This is a good day for you to analyze information, Aries. You have an especially acute business sense, which you should use to your advantage. Whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thinking of translating a creative project into a business proposal or working on that business plan, all indications say that your efforts will yield rich rewards. Make the most of whatever this day has to offer. TAURUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a conscientious, hard worker, Taurus, but today your thoughts are more on home than work. You feel especially close to your family and friends. They mean the most to you. Jobs and even careers come and go, but friends and family are forever. Enjoy being with them today. Gather everyone together and order too much Chinese takeout. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just fine if you restart your diet tomorrow. GEMINI â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Today is likely to be another busy one for you, Gemini. You might have a volunteer activity in the morning and then get roped into running errands in the afternoon. It will be busy bordering on hectic, but the hustle and bustle of being out and about is energizing for you. Invite some friends to join you for dinner in the evening to cap off this high-energy day. CANCER â&#x20AC;&#x201D; You have a strong spirit of cooperation today, Cancer. It inspires you to pitch in and help others without being asked. Your romantic partner could be surprised to see you show up and help with a chore. Never mind that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing - youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll figure it out. Others will be impressed to see you going above and beyond what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been asked to do. Your efforts on all fronts wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go unnoticed. LEO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Keep your eyes and ears open to all new possibilities, Leo. Even if it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t your habit to read the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Help Wantedâ&#x20AC;? section of the newspaper, do so today. You might be surprised at what you find there. Your skills apply to all sorts of jobs. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to limit your search to one profession. You have a good mind thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s working in overdrive now. Use it to figure out the next steps for your advancement. VIRGO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Today your strong sense of nostalgia likely has you leaning toward all things old. If you do some furniture shopping, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be drawn to antique shops rather than contemporary stores. There is something about the patina that only comes with age. This applies to people as well as objects, which may explain why you tend to prefer Monday, November 16, 2015 to be with people who are older

biomass is located, near the surface, Mr. Peters’ next study will explore whether other marine animals contribute to nitrogen levels in the kelp forest canopy. Because sea otters forage for reef invertebrates and spend much of their time resting in the kelp forest, Mr. Peters suspects they act as “a conveyor belt of nutrients,” directly supplying their waste and urine into the canopy. While the UCSB team’s collaborators at the United States Geological Survey have studied otter activity at monthly intervals for 13 years, Mr. Peters told the News-Press that he and his team will observe them on a “finer scale.”
