ATLANTA — A week ago, the Southeastern Conference looked as though it had fi nally been vanquished.
The rest of the nation breathed a sigh of relief, clearly relieved it wouldn’t have to watch the haughty SEC celebrate another national championship.
Not so fast.After a wild Saturday in this
most unpredictable of seasons, the SEC was back in a familiar position — set to play for a BCS title, albeit not in its usual role of favorite.
No. 2 Auburn (12-1) was ex-pected to land a spot in the championship game against top-ranked Florida State (13-0) when the BCS pairings were announced Sunday night, the fallout from Ohio State losing to Michigan State in the Big Ten championship game.
The Seminoles were estab-lished as an early touchdown fa-vorite for the Jan. 6 game at the Rose Bowl.
Auburn doesn’t sound the least bit intimidated.
“We feel we’re the best team in college football,” star running back Tre Mason said. “We’ve got to continue to prove it.”
Ohio State had not lost a game in two years under coach Urban Meyer and needed one more victory to lock up a trip to Pasa-
dena. Alas, in what has been a familiar theme since 2006, the SEC champion Tigers stepped up to claim the spot when the Buckeyes were upset by Michi-gan State 34-24.
Auburn it deserved a shot at the title, no matter what Ohio State did.
There’s no argument now, de-spite that collective groan from the SEC’s detractors, who have gotten downright tired of watch-ing this conference win the fi nal game year after year.
Four SEC teams — Alabama, Florida, LSU and Auburn — have combined to win the last seven BCS championships, an unprecedented streak of domi-nance by a single league.
In this part of the country, there’s a sense of entitlement that came across even before the Tigers defeated Missouri 59-42 in an SEC shootout. These guys believe they’re the best confer-ence in the country, and they’re not shy about stating it over and over again.
Auburn athletic director Jay Jacobs started lobbying for a BCS berth as soon as his team knocked off two-time defending champion Alabama, a game that seemingly eliminated the con-ference’s best hope. The Tigers followed up with a video game-like performance in Atlanta, to-taling a record 677 yards against Missouri — including 545 on the
ground.“It’s nine words,” Jacobs said.
“Strength of schedule. Strength of schedule. Strength of sched-ule.”
Alabama was unbeaten and ranked No. 1 when it fell to Au-burn. Missouri went into the SEC title game ranked No. 5 and sporting one of the nation’s
top-ranked defenses, but had no answer for Auburn’s hurry-up spread offense led by Mason

GLENDALE, Ariz. — So much for Carson Palmer's sore right elbow.
The Arizona quarterback completed 27 of 32 passes, 12 of them to Larry Fitzgerald, and the Cardinals ended an eight-game losing streak against NFC West foes by beating the St. Louis Rams 30-10 on Sunday.
Palmer, questionable for the game after being limited in practice last week, threw for 269 yards and a touchdown as the Cardinals (8-5) won for the fi fth time in six games.
Arizona's Karlos Dansby re-turned an interception 23 yards for a touchdown and John Abra-ham tackled Kellen Clemens for a safety.
Tavon Austin's 56-yard run set up the only touchdown for the Rams (5-8), a 1-yard run by Zac Stacy. Austin injured his left ankle on the play and didn't re-turn.
The Cardinals lost rookie safety Tyrann Mathieu in the third quarter with a left knee injury.
Arizona had not beaten an NFC West opponent since a vic-tory over Seattle in the 2012 sea-son opener. They had lost three in a row this season, including 27-24 at St. Louis in the opener.
Fitzgerald's 12 catches went for 96 yards, including a 7-yard-er for a touchdown. It was his most receptions since he matched his career high with 13 against Seattle on Oct. 18, 2009.
Dansby had his second touch-down return of an interception in three games. He returned one
22 yards for a score in Arizona's 40-11 rout of Indianapolis two games ago.
Mathieu, the “Honey Badger” having a terrifi c rookie season, was hurt after returning the free kick that followed the safety with nine minutes left in the third quarter. He jogged toward the Arizona bench but his knee buckled and he collapsed, then he was carted off the fi eld.
The Arizona safety came after a Cardinals punt was downed at the Rams 1-yard line.
On third down from the 5, Clemens retreated to the end zone and was hit by Abraham, who had three sacks on the day to give him 11 this season and move him into ninth on the NFL career sacks list with 133.
Arizona's Jay Feely missed two fi eld goals, the fi rst a 50-yarder, the second a 25-yard attempt with 4:27 to play.
After the second miss, Rashad Johnson's interception set up Andre Ellington's 6-yard touch-down run with 1:55 left. Elling-ton played after missing last week's loss at Philadelphia with a knee injury.
In the fi rst half, Palmer com-pleted 16 of 17 for 169 yards and a touchdown and would have had another TD had Jim Dray not fumbled the ball at the half-yard line.
Limited in practice all week after injuring his elbow early in last week's loss at Philadelphia, Palmer completed his fi rst 10 passes.
Fitzgerald had eight fi rst-half catches, including the 7-yarder that put Arizona up 14-3 with 55 seconds left in the half.

DENVER — The freezing cold didn't bother Peyton Manning and it certainly was no problem for Matt Prater.
The Broncos kicker lashed a record-setting 64-yard fi eld goal through the icy air Sunday to highlight a 51-28 victory over the Tennessee Titans.
The Broncos (11-2) wrapped up a playoff berth, putting Man-ning in the postseason for the 13th time.
Manning, whose ability in the cold has been a topic of debate all month in Denver, showed very few signs of distress in clear, 18-degree weather. It hardly was like the snowy, wacky day all across the NFL.
Denver's quarterback com-pleted a team-record 39 passes and matched the franchise high with 59 attempts. He fi nished with 397 yards, and led the Broncos past the 50-point mark for the third time this year.
But Manning and Prater were about the only Broncos clicking on all cylinders on the day coach John Fox rejoined the team and coached from the sideline after missing four games because of heart surgery.
The special teams gave up a 95-yard kickoff return — the second return of 90-plus it has allowed in the last two games.
The Titans (5-8) burned the Denver defense frequently, most notably when Ryan Fitzpatrick (13 for 24, 172 yards) picked on rookie cornerback Kayvon Web-

BOWLING GREEN — Blake Pillow rushed for 150 yards and Blue Tis-dale put up three touch-downs as Bowling Green scored 49 unanswered points to roll past Pu-laski County 49-14 in the KHSAA Class 5A cham-pionship game Sunday at Houchens Industries/L.T. Smith Stadium.
The win marks the Pur-ples' (14-0) third consec-utive state championship and their third straight undefeated season.
Pillow scored twice on just six attempts with long touchdown runs of 79 and 41 yards. Tisdale
added 86 yards on 18 carries and caught a 33-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter from Devin Hayes to go with his three scores.
Hayes completed 13-of-22 passes for 202 yards and two scores. Nacarius Fant added fi ve catch-es for 100 yards and a touchdown.
Pulaski County (14-1) jumped out to a 14-0 lead behind a 25-yard score from quarterback Riley Hall, who fi nished the game with 41 yards on the ground while completing 19-of-31 passes for 163 yards and a touchdown pass.

and quarterback Nick Marshall.
Mason ran 304 yards and four touchdowns.
During the regular season, Auburn defeat-ed three other teams — Texas A&M, Mississippi and Georgia — that were ranked at the time.
“Who else has knocked off two top-fi ve teams in the last week?” Jacobs asked. “Who else has knocked off fi ve Top 25 teams? Show me who they are, and I’ll tell you they belong instead of us.”
Turns out, he didn’t need to plead his case.
In a game that started about the time Auburn was fi nishing off Mis-souri, Ohio State rallied from an early 17-0 defi -cit but couldn’t hold on. The Spartans dominated down the stretch, a result that surely pleased the folks down South.
After all, Meyer guided Florida to a national title that launched the SEC’s record run and won an-other two years later, only to leave the Gators after the 2010 season, saying he needed to devote more time to his health and his family.
One year later, he turned up as Ohio State’s
new coach, sparking plenty of bitterness in Gainesville — and plenty of giddiness in SEC coun-try when Meyer’s new team came up short.
Now, the SEC will pin its hopes on a team that doesn’t have the league’s usual DNA. Under fi rst-year coach Gus Malzahn, Auburn produced one of the greatest turnarounds in college football history largely on the back of its dynamic offense, a strik-ing change from previous champs that relied on sti-fl ing defense.
It will be interesting to see if the Tigers, who rank 88th nationally in yards allowed (423.5 per game), can outscore the explosive Seminoles, who have the overwhelming Heisman favorite, quar-terback Jameis Winston, and have beaten every opponent by at least 14 points.
The Tigers feel like they’ve got something special going, a mojo that can’t be measured by stats after improbable wins over Alabama and Georgia.
“A lot of teams aren’t get-ting better each week,” Mal-zahn said. “This team is.”

THOUSAND OAKS, Ca-lif. — Zach Johnson put together the storybook fi n-ish at Sherwood on Sunday that for the longest time be-longed to Tiger Woods.
Johnson rallied from four shots behind with eight holes to play, holed out from a drop area for par on the last hole to force a playoff, and beat the No. 1 player in golf at the World Challenge when Woods missed a 5-foot par putt on the fi rst extra hole.
“Pretty impressive what he did,” Woods said. “He got me.”
It was an extraordinary sendoff at Sherwood, which hosted the World Challenge for the 14th and fi nal time before it moves to Florida next year.
The big surprise was the winner in so many ways.
“I feel very fortunate, and a bit lucky,” said Johnson, who moved into the top 10 in the world ranking for the fi rst time in his career.
For Woods, it was only the fourth time in his ca-reer that he lost a lead of at
least two shots going into the fi nal round, the second time at Sherwood. Graeme McDowell overcame a four-shot defi cit in 2010 and beat Woods in a playoff.
This was far more dra-matic.
They were tied after Johnson hit his tee shot to 4 feet for birdie on the 17th hole. Playing from the left rough, Woods came up just short and watched his ap-proach tumble down the elevated green and into the bunker. Johnson followed with his worst shot of the week, an 8-iron so weak that it came up well short and into the hazard.
Johnson knew Woods had a diffi cult bunker shot, and if he fi gured if he could stick his wedge close from about 65 yards away in the drop zone, a bogey might be enough to get into a play-off. The ball bounced three times and then spun back a few inches into the cup for an unlikely par and a 4-un-der 68.
“A little too dramatic for me,” Johnson said.
Woods' hit a superb bunker shot to 2 feet and
matched his par for a 70. They fi nished on 13-under 275.
Woods was between clubs from the 18th fairway in the playoff and tried a smooth 7-iron that he lost enough to the right that it again found the bunker. He hit an exquisite sand shot, this one sliding 5 feet by the hole, and the par putt spun out of the left side.
Johnson won $1 million and should go to No. 9 in the world.
Woods ended what he called a “damn good year” — fi ve wins, the most of anyone in the world — with a shocking loss to John-son. Two years ago, Woods ended the longest drought of his career when he went birdie-birdie at Sherwood to beat Johnson by one shot.
Matt Kuchar (67) and Bubba Watson (70) tied for third at 9-under 279.
The attendance Sunday was 24,922, a record for any round in 14 years at Sherwood. Traffi c outside the tony club in the Santa Monica foothills looked like an LA freeway in what could
be the last chance in the near future to see Woods in southern California.
Woods appeared to have his sixth title at Sherwood sewed up when Johnson missed a short par putt on the 10th hole to fall four shots behind with eight holes to play. Woods had said on Saturday that John-son wasn't the kind of play-er who went away easily, and he was right.
Johnson picked up bird-ies on the 11th and 12th holes, and then got back in the game on the 14th when Woods three-putted from long range on the 14th, and Johnson saved his par with an 8-foot putt to get within one shot.
The rest of the way looked like the fi nal rounds of a heavyweight fi ght, even if only one of them looked the part.
Johnson laid up on the par-5 16 and nearly holed a sand wedge from 88 yards, setting up a tap-in birdie. Woods, with a tough chip left of the green, rehearsed the shot over and over and it came out perfectly for a matching birdie.

ster on the fi rst drive for a 57-yard completion to Justin Hunter that set up the game's fi rst touch-down.
There were about a half-dozen dropped pass-es and the Broncos had a whale of a time punch-ing the ball in from the 1. They snapped the ball 11 times from that distance in order to get two touch-downs and a fi eld goal.
It turned Prater's re-cord-setting attempt into much more than a the-atrical fl ourish, which is what most fi eld goals are for a team that has now put up 515 points through 13 games.
Denver had cut a 21-10 defi cit to 21-17 before halftime and a penalty forced Manning to start from his 15 with 52 sec-onds left. An 18-yard pass to Demaryius Thomas got the ball near midfi eld with 7 seconds left. Then Manning completed a quick 7-yard pass to Ja-
cob Tamme, who went out of bounds with 3 sec-onds to go.
On came Prater. With the mercury at 14 de-grees, he lined up on the right hash mark at his 46, just a few steps over from the eye of the Broncos logo at midfi eld.
The kick cleared the crossbar with a bit of room to spare, and holder Britton Colquitt jumped piggyback onto the kicker to celebrate.
Prater broke a record held by four kickers, set fi rst in 1970 by Tom Dempsey and most re-cently by David Akers, whose kick last season in Green Bay bounced on the crossbar before going over.
Manning led the Bron-cos on an 80-yard scoring drive to open the third quarter and the Broncos didn't trail again.
The quarterback's 4,522 yards and 45 touch-downs this season remain on pace to break the NFL records of 5,476 and 50.

LAGUNA NIGUEL, Calif. — An Olympic gold medal won by Jesse Owens at the 1936 Berlin Games has sold for a record $1.4 million in an online auction.
SCP Auctions said Pittsburgh Penguins co-owner Ron Burkle paid $1,466,574, the highest price for a piece of Olympic memorabilia. The online auction ended Sunday.
“We just hope that it's purchased by an institu-tion where the public could have access to it, a museum or something like that,” Owens' daughter, Marlene Owens Rankin of Chicago, told The Associated Press before the sale.
The auction house said Burkle, who also owns William Faulkner's Nobel Prize for literature, has plans for an educational tour of the historic pieces. He wasn't available for comment Sunday.
The Los Angeles billion-
aire investor's holdings include retail, food and en-tertainment companies.
Owens won gold in the 100- and 200-meters, 400 relay and long jump at the games attended by Adolf Hitler, who used the Olym-pics to showcase his ideas of Aryan supremacy.
According to the auc-tion house based in Laguna Niguel, Calif., the medal is unidentifi able to a specifi c event. It said Owens gave the medal to his friend, dancer and movie star Bill “Bojangles” Robinson, as thanks for helping Owens fi nd work in entertainment after he returned from Ber-lin.
The medal was sold by the estate of Robinson's late widow, Elaine Plaines-Robinson. SCP Auctions Vice President Dan Imler said the Owens family con-fi rmed the medal is origi-nal; the whereabouts of the other three is unknown.
A portion of the proceeds
from the sale of the medal will be donated to the Jesse Owens Foundation. The Robinson family had de-clined to comment on the auction, but Imler said they also plan to use the pro-ceeds to pay college tuition.
Last month, IOC Presi-dent Thomas Bach told the AP that the Owens medal is “a part of world heritage.”
“(It has) an importance far beyond the sporting achievements of Jesse Ow-ens, which is part of world history,” Bach said. “To put this up for an auction is for me a very diffi cult decision (to accept).”
The record price for the Owens medal surpassed that of a silver cup awarded to the winner of the fi rst modern-day Olympic mar-athon in 1896 that sold for $865,000 in April 2012. It also topped the highest price paid for a U.S. Olym-pic item — the “Miracle on Ice” jersey worn by team captain Mike Eruzione in
1980 that sold for $657,250 last February.
“We are honored to have handled what we consider to be among the most in-spiring sports artifacts ever offered at auction,” Imler said. “The worldwide at-tention garnered by the auction of Jesse Owens' 1936 gold medal and the extraordinary auction re-sult proves that Owens' tri-umphant legacy continues to endure.”
The auction, includ-ing more than 1,000 sports memorabilia items, brought in a total of nearly $4.5 million.
Other top lots included Jackie Robinson's game-used bats from his historic 1949 National League Most Valuable Player season and the 1955 World Series, which sold for $183,500 and $128,617, respective-ly; and a Jackie Robinson single-signed baseball at-tracted a record bid of $104,765.

ORLANDO, Fla. — Louis-ville will play Miami in the Russell Athletic Bowl Dec. 28 in Orlando.
The 18th-ranked Car-dinals (11-1) entered the preseason as the American Athletic Conference favor-ite, but blew a 21-point lead in their lone loss of the sea-son to BCS-bound UCF.
The loss also dealt a blow to the Heisman Trophy campaign for quarterback Teddy Bridgewater.
The Atlantic Coast Con-ference's Hurricanes (9-3) won their fi rst seven games of the season and were ranked in the Top 10 be-fore losing three in a row to Florida State, Virginia Tech and Duke.
Miami recovered to win its fi nal two games of the year and will be playing in its fi rst bowl game since 2010. The Hurricanes had a self-imposed bowl ban in 2011 and 2012 because of an NCAA investigation.

PHILADELPHIA — LeSean McCoy ran for a franchise-best 217 yards, including touchdowns of 57 and 40 yards, and the Eagles overcame two TD returns by Jeremy Ross in a blizzard.
Ross returned a punt 58 yards for a score and ran a kickoff 98 yards. But Mc-Coy sprinted 57 yards up the middle for a tying TD, and Nick Foles connected with Riley Cooper on the 2-point conversion. Foles sneaked in from the 1 and Chris Polk had a 38-yard touchdown run to cap a 28-point fourth quarter for the Eagles (8-5).
Snow began falling two hours before kickoff and intensifi ed after the game started. Workers used shovels and handheld blowers to clear off yard lines. Conditions were so poor neither team tried a fi eld goal, and there were 2-point conversion at-tempts after seven of the eight TDs.
Ravens 29, Vikings 26
BALTIMORE — Joe Flac-co threw a 9-yard touch-down pass to rookie Mar-lon Brown with 4 seconds left to ice the win. Brown’s catch concluded a fi ve-play, 80-yard drive that took only 41 seconds.
It came after Matt Cassel threw a 79-yard touchdown pass to Cordarrelle Pat-terson with 45 seconds re-maining. Just before that, Baltimore’s Jacoby Jones took a kickoff 77 yards for a score, which followed a 41-yard touchdown run by Toby Gerhart, who had re-placed an injured Adrian Peterson (ankle) for Min-nesota (3-9-1).
The zaniness began when Flacco threw a 1-yard, fourth-down pass to Den-nis Pitta with 2:05 go to for a 15-12 Ravens lead.
Patriots 27, Browns 26
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Tom Brady threw two touchdown passes in the fi nal 61 seconds and New England recovered an onside kick to set up the comeback win.
The Patriots (10-3) cut the defi cit to 26-21 on Brady’s 2-yard touchdown pass to Julian Edelman with 1:01 left. Cleveland received a 15-yard penalty on the play, then Kyle Ar-rington recovered the on-side kick at the Cleveland 40-yard line.
Brady completed a 10-yard pass to Danny Amen-dola, then Leon McFadden was called for defensive pass interference in the end zone. That put the ball at the 1, where Brady connected with Amendola again.
49ers 19, Seahawks 17
SAN FRANCISCO — Phil Dawson kicked a 22-yard fi eld goal with 26 seconds remaining and the Niners held off the nemesis Se-ahawks, denying Seattle a chance to clinch the divi-sion at Candlestick Park.
Frank Gore broke a 51-yard gain with just more
than four minutes left to set up the go-ahead 11-play, 76-yard drive as the 49ers (9-4) kept the play-off-bound Seahawks (11-2) from grabbing away the West in San Francisco.
Dawson’s fourth fi eld goal of the day gave him 20 straight converted fi eld goals, a franchise record topping Joe Nedney’s 18 consecutive in 2006-07.
Bengals 42, Colts 28
CINCINNATI — Andy Dalton threw for three touchdowns and ran for another as the Bengals re-mained perfect at home and in control of the AFC North.
The Bengals (9-4) im-proved to 6-0 at Paul Brown Stadium on a cold, windy day: 28 degrees at kickoff with a wind chill of 19 and light fl urries.
Dalton gave his most consistent performance since October, throwing for three touchdowns that kept the Bengals ahead and fi n-ishing it off with an 8-yard run in the fourth quarter. Dalton was 24 of 35 for 275 yards without a sack or in-terception.
Chiefs 45, Redskins 10
LANDOVER, Md. — The Chiefs scored on their fi rst four possessions in the snow, sacked Robert Grif-fi n III fi ve times and Kirk Cousins once, and returned both a punt and a kickoff for a touchdown.
The score was 17-0 after the fi rst quarter and 38-10 at halftime.
Quintin Demps imme-diately answered the lone Redskins touchdown with a 95-yard kickoff return that resembled at times a winter stroll, part of a stun-ning tally of 321 return yards by Kansas City in the fi rst half alone.
Jamaal Charles ran 19 times for 151 yards for Kan-sas City.
Dolphins 34, Steelers 28
PITTSBURGH — Charles Clay caught two touchdown passes, including a 12-yard strike from Ryan Tannehill with 2:53 remaining.
Daniel Thomas ran for 105 yards and a score. His
zig-zag 55-yard burst at snowy Heinz Field set up Clay’s winner. Tannehill completed 20 of 33 passes for 201 yards and three scores for the Dolphins (7-6). Miami won for the third time in its last four games.
Ben Roethlisberger passed for 349 yards and three scores but the Steel-ers (5-8) lost their second straight game. Antonio Brown raced into the end zone after a series of later-als on the fi nal play, but of-fi cials ruled he stepped out of bounds before scoring.
Packers 22, Falcons 21
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Matt Flynn threw for 258 yards and the Packers’
struggling defense forced a key fourth-quarter turn-over to snap a fi ve-game winless string.
Mike Neal’s sack forced Matt Ryan to fumble. De-fensive lineman Johnny Jolly scooped up the loose ball and celebrated with a little belly dance at chilly Lambeau Field.
Four plays later, Flynn found Andrew Quarless for a 2-yard go-ahead score with about 12 minutes left for the Packers (6-6-1).
The score completed a comeback from an 11-point halftime defi cit and whipped the fans swathed in parkas and knit caps into a frigid frenzy. It was 9 degrees when the game started, with a wind chill of minus-1.
Jets 37, Raiders 27
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Geno Smith threw a touchdown pass and ran for another score as the Jets set a season high for points and stopped a three-game skid.
Chris Ivory had a touch-down run, Nick Folk kicked three fi eld goals and An-tonio Allen blocked a punt and returned it for a score to help the Jets (6-7) in the AFC playoff hunt. Smith ended a miserable stretch that included get-ting benched last week by throwing his fi rst touch-down toss since Week 7.
The Jets also prevented the fi rst four-game losing streak under coach Rex Ryan.
Chargers 37, Giants 14
SAN DIEGO — Philip Rivers found rookie Keen-an Allen for two of his three touchdown passes, and the Chargers kept alive their long-shot playoff hopes.
Manning dropped to 0-3 against San Diego since 2004, when the Chargers took him with the No. 1 overall draft pick and then sent him to the Giants for Rivers and a handful of draft picks. The Giants (5-8) were knocked out of playoff contention.
Manning was picked off twice, the fi rst time when Donald Butler came up with a defl ected pass mid-way through the fi rst quar-ter. Three plays later, Allen caught a 43-yard pass and lunged for the pylon for the score.
Buccaneers 27, Bills 6
TAMPA, Fla. — Mike Glennon threw two touch-down passes and Bobby Rainey scored on an 80-yard run on the second play of the day. The Bucs (4-9) intercepted EJ Manuel four times en route to their fourth win in fi ve games following an 0-8 start.
Manuel, Buffalo’s fi rst-round draft pick out of Florida State, was sacked seven times and doubled his interception total for the season.
The Bills (4-9) have lost fi ve of six, are assured of fi nishing without a win-ning record for the ninth straight year, and also are likely to extend the NFL’s longest current playoff drought to 14 consecutive seasons.

Monday, December 9, 2013ARIES (March 21-April 19):
Don’t feel pressured to make a decision regarding your position, status or advancement. Recap what you’ve done in the past and consider how you can utilize your skills to bring better out-comes. An impulsive decision will not bring good results.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You call the shots. Your wisdom and charm will attract people who can offer favors and infor-mation that will help you reach your goals. A partnership will turn into a long and profitable connection. Romance is high-lighted. Share your feelings.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You’ll need discipline to finish
projects that need to be wrapped up before the end of the year. Of-fer suggestions, but do not part with your cash. A service you can offer others will be well-received and bring in additional funds.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Concentrate on getting odd jobs finished. Preparation will make your job easier, allowing you more time to spend doing some-thing enjoyable. Make assess-ments and changes to your life and overall personal look. Plan a little romance to end your day.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A unique approach or new sur-roundings will feed your creative imagination. Knowledge and honing your skills will spark an idea that can lead to extra cash.
Don’t let anyone limit what you can do. Be diplomatic but firm when faced with opposition.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Rethink your financial strategy. If you’ve been impulsive or emo-tional when it comes to spend-ing, pull back and cut corners. Help an older relative or friend, but don’t take over. Suggestions or physical assistance is one thing; meddling is another.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A change at work or with a part-nership will come about quickly. Don’t act surprised when you should be prepared to move without skipping a beat. Disci-pline and hard work will pay off. Reconnecting with an old friend should be done cautiously.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Get up, get focused and accom-plish everything on your to-do list. Using friendly pressure to get what you want will work won-ders. Social networking will pay off by introducing you to new people, places and possibilities. Love is highlighted.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Enjoy doing the things that ease your stress and add comfort to your life. Stick close to home and protect what you cherish. Don’t let emotional uncertainty ruin your day. Recog-nize an unstable situation and act accordingly.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Take on whatever comes your way and you will send an impres-
sive vibe that will help you con-trol what’s going on around you. Visiting an inspirational place will have benefits. Make plans with someone you love.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): What you do for others will be beneficial. Personalize a job you’ve been given. Someone will recognize your talent and offer you greater stability and hope for the future. A little daydream-ing will help you recognize new possibilities.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your ingenuity, coupled with in-sight and reliability, will be your ticket to success. It’s what you do, not what you say, that will help you get ahead. Don’t let a change throw you off course.

Dear Annie: I am a wom-an in my mid-30s, and think I may have been mo-lested when I was young. I have little memory of my childhood up until age 13. But I do know that when my friends played with their Barbie dolls, they had her driving around, go-ing on dates and dressing up pretty. I pretended she was having sex with Ken. Other kids played house, but I pretended to be the dad and would get on top of my younger sister and rub against her. When I was 14, I made out with my 8-year-old stepcousin until his mother caught me, and for years after, he refused to talk to me. When I was 16, I kissed my best friend’s 10-year-old brother.
I don’t remember any-thing specifi cally. I only remember having a bad dream once that my dad molested me, and for years afterward, I didn’t want to be near him. Our rela-tionship still feels kind of
strained. I don’t know what to think anymore. What should I do? — Bewildered and Worried
Dear Bewildered: We would not presume to tell you what hap-pened to you as a child, if anything actually did, or whether it involved your father. We sug-gest you seek therapy, although we do not recommend those who claim to specialize in “recovered” memories of abuse. This type of therapy is not reliable. Ask your doctor to re-fer you.
Dear Annie: “Little Sister in Need” told you about her abusive older brother, and you told her to “stop taking it personally”? She wasn’t talking about disagree-ments. She cited his being “verbally, psychologically and at times physically
abusive.”You should have told
her that what’s going on is abuse and, if he gets physi-cal, constitutes domes-tic violence. She needs to talk to a domestic violence counselor and be alert for signs that he’s also abusing his wife and child. Odds are that he is. Abusers rarely limit themselves to just one victim. — Judy
Dear Judy: Many readers agree with you, but we did not get the impression that the current abuse is physi-cal. The fact that her brother continues to harangue her verbally indicates that he has anger and control is-sues. He lashes out at his sister because this is the dynamic they have had for 20 years. Her brother is intimidat-ing her, and she needs to stand up to him in a way that empowers her without exacerbating the situation.

LOS ANGELES — ABC says it will air four fewer episodes of “Scandal” than planned this season.
The network on Friday didn’t say why it will broad-cast 18 instead of 22 epi-sodes. But the decision fol-
lows word that “Scandal” star Kerry Washington and her new husband, football player Nnamdi Asomugha, are expecting a baby.
The shortened schedule will wrap production early for its pregnant star.
After next Thursday’s epi-
sode airs, “Scandal” will take a break and then return in late February with the fi nal episodes of season three.
The drama series about Washington, D.C., intrigue is a ratings hit for ABC and earned an Emmy nomina-tion for its lead actress.
Pregnancy reduces ‘Scandal’ episodesAssociated Press
NEW YORK — In its second weekend at the box offi ce, the Disney ani-mated tale “Frozen” fi nal-ly cooled off “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire,” while the week’s lone new wide-release “Out of the Furnace” wasn’t a match for either blockbuster.
According to studio es-timates Sunday, “Frozen” led the multiplexes with a haul of $31.6 million over the weekend, taking over the top spot from “Catching Fire.” Lionsgate’s “Hunger Games” sequel had topped the box offi ce for the last two weeks, but slid to sec-ond with $27 million in its third week of release.
Relativity Media’s steel-town drama “Out of the Furnace,” starring Chris-tian Bale and Casey Af-fl eck, posed no challenge for the bigger blockbuster holdovers. It opened with $5.3 million, good enough for third place on what’s typically a quiet early De-cember weekend, sand-
wiched between Thanks-giving and the coming holiday season releases.
But it was an excellent weekend for Hollywood, with box offi ce up 16.9 percent over the same weekend last year. Open-ing in a limited release of four theaters, the Coen brothers’ folk tale “Inside Llewyn Davis” also had one of the year’s highest per-theater averages of $100,500 for CBS Films.
With only a handful of moviegoing weeks left in the year, the strong weekend boosts the year’s chances of exceeding 2012’s record box offi ce. This year may surpass last year’s $10.8 billion do-mestic box offi ce, said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for box-of-fi ce tracker Rentrak.
Dergarabedian expects next week’s big release, Warner Bros.’ “The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug,” to open in the neighbor-hood of Peter Jackson’s fi rst “Hobbit” fi lm, “An Un-expected Journey,” which
debuted with $84.6 million last year. This weekend’s new releases were mini-mal since “The Hobbit” is expected to dominate the marketplace next week-end.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sun-day at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Rentrak. Where available. Final domestic fi gures will be released Monday.
1.”Frozen,” $31.6 mil-lion.
2.”The Hunger Games: Catching Fire,” $27 mil-lion.

WASHINGTON — The “Piano Man” who became one of the world’s best-selling artists of all time with such hits as “Just the Way You Are,” ‘‘Uptown Girl” and “Allentown” was awarded the nation’s high-est honor Sunday for infl u-encing American culture through the arts.
Billy Joel joins Carlos Santana, Herbie Hancock, opera star Martina Ar-royo and actress Shirley MacLaine in receiving the Kennedy Center Honors. All of them have been play-ing music, dancing or sing-ing since they were children — and have never stopped.
Joel said the honor stands apart from his six Grammys.
“This is different. It’s our nation’s capital,” he told The Associated Press. “This is coming more from my country than just people who come to see me. It’s a little overwhelming.”
The 64-year-old musi-cian born in the Bronx has been playing the piano since he was a boy, grow-ing up on New York’s Long Island. There was always music in the house, he said. His mother sang. His father played the piano.
Impressing girls, though, is what hooked Joel into making a career of music, he said.
Joel just announced a 2014 concert series at Mad-ison Square Garden in New York “to avoid schlepping around the world,” but he still plans to play concerts nationwide.
President Barack Obama saluted the honorees Sun-day night, and top en-tertainers offered tribute performances for each honoree. The show will be broadcast Dec. 29.
On Saturday night, Sec-retary of State John Kerry hosted the honorees for a black-tie dinner at the State Department. Kerry said the artists had blazed trails and redefi ned the arts and Amer-ican culture along the way.
“They are loved by so many, imitated by some, but never ever can they be re-placed,” Kerry said. “We are reminded that the role of arts can also never be replaced.”
Garth Brooks toasted Joel at the dinner, saying his legacy would live on for generations. He said Joel
has a special talent for writ-ing songs about everyday people, from steel work-ers in “Allentown” to sol-diers fi ghting in Vietnam in “Goodnight Saigon.”
“Music has a wonderful gift,” Brooks said. “For those that do it right, they can put you in shoes that you would never understand if it wasn’t for that song.”
Santana, 66, a Mexican immigrant who began learn-ing English from American television, is one of only a few Latinos who have re-ceived the honor so far.
Santana fi rst picked up the guitar after hearing blues and rock ‘n’ roll on the radio. He has said his career is about bridging cultures and fusing sounds to create something new. He grew up with the Wood-stock generation after mov-ing to San Francisco, but is perhaps best known for his album “Supernatural.” It won nine Grammys.
Kerry said Santana brought the beauty of Latin culture and its rhythms and infl uences to the American mainstream.
“We love the music you made, not because it’s Latin, but frankly because it is so very American,” Kerry said.
Hancock, 73, got his start at the piano at age 7 while
growing up in Chicago. Soon he was playing Mo-zart and discovered jazz in high school. He joined the Miles Davis Quintet in 1963 and later set out to cre-ate his own sounds, fusing jazz, funk, pop, gospel, soul and the blues. He has won an Oscar and 14 Grammy Awards so far.
Arroyo found opera while imitating the singers outside an opera workshop when she was growing up in Harlem. Soon she was signing a contract with New York’s Metropolitan Opera and had a breakthrough with “Aida” in 1965. She went on to star in the great opera houses of London, Paris and Vienna.
MacLaine, 79, has been acting on stage and screen for six decades ever since she began ballet at age 3. Her fi lm debut came in 1955’s “The Trouble with Harry,” directed by Alfred Hitchcock, and she won the Oscar for best actress for “Terms of Endearment” in 1983. More recently she’s been playing a role in “Downton Abbey” on PBS.
MacLaine’s younger brother Warren Beatty also has won a Kennedy Center Honor, making them the fi rst brother and sister to both receive the honor.
